Lin Jing and Zhang Lu stood in the courtyard, watching the disciples scramble, not in a proper manner, when they took off their socks and put their feet on the bucket, they returned to the house, and saw Lu Youzi Ye Ji and others sitting at the table talking to the old man.
From time to time, the heads of the houses also went back to the house to rest, the day was not clear, and a group of disciples gathered at the door at the end of the day, Lu Youzi thanked the old man, and the disciples took out a few ingots of gold and handed them to the old man.
The old man refused, everyone took advantage of the fact that the households had not yet gotten up and went out of the village, the old man sat alone on the doorstep, and did not want to move, just like this for a while, but saw a woman with a sword here, and complained that this Jianghu person came from the house again, and last night he exhausted his own rice grain, and this morning came back to one person, don't look at only one person, there must be many people behind him, so he wanted to refuse the guest, but was stopped by Ye Qiu, and was overjoyed after asking the reason.

Ye Qiuxing said: "Daddy, this matter is a long story, please come into the car and follow me to the small village where you lived last night, there are important things that need Daddy's help." Ye Qi said suspiciously: "Why do you know where we lived last night?" Ye Qiu said: "I'll tell you more details in the car." Ye Ji said to Lu Youzi: "I'll go with Xiaoqiu first, and you will continue to hurry, and I will meet you later." Lu Youzi said: "You can go, if you can't come back for a while, I will send my disciples to the village to inform you." ”

Ye Qiu whipped and said: "I and Senior Brother Xu met a master with great skill in the Peng Mansion, fought with him, and almost died in the house, now the senior brother and Senior Brother Xu are not servants, we have to find it as soon as possible." Lu Yunxiang said: "Who is so powerful, how can even the three of you be invincible?" Ye Qiu said: "That person is treacherous and cunning, pretending to be Lang Zhong and pretending to enter the house to see the disease, and then take the opportunity to kill Peng Yushan, the second lady of Peng Zhai, if it weren't for me and my senior brother to be aware of it, I'm afraid Miss Yushan will no longer survive, that person is used to finger power, and the internal force is unfathomable." Lu Yunxiang exclaimed: "Habitual finger power, isn't it the same as the person I met that night?" Ye Qiu hurriedly said: "Not bad, yes, maybe it's possible." Ye Qi said: "You said that person borrowed the disease? Is the second lady of the Peng family sick?" Ye Qiu said: "Not bad." Ye Ji said again: "How did that person know that the second miss of the Peng family was sick, and he could still pretend to be Lang Zhong and go to the house in time without arousing the slightest suspicion?" Lu Yunxiang said: "This person is planning to kill Miss Peng, why?" Ye Qiu said: "I don't know this, and I can't take care of it at the moment, Miss Yushan is weak and cold, can't withstand many bumps, and needs to recuperate on the couch, I am at the entrance of the village at the moment, I have to hurry back." ”
The three of them rushed to the front of the village for half an hour, and saw a car of three people in the village, divided into Mrs. Peng Huai and the coachman, Ye Qiu got off the horse and ran to the front of the three and asked, "What about Miss Yushan?" Mrs. Peng said: "Yushan can't stand the wind and cold, so she sleeps in the car." Peng Huai said: "These two are..." Ye Qiu said: "This is my master, Ye Ji, the head of the Ye Yun faction, and this is Lu Yunxiang, the Qingyao master of the Jade Flute Gang." ”
Ye Ji and Lu Yunxiang saluted Peng Huai, and Peng Huai replied: "The two of them have been famous for a long time, and the old man is fortunate to see them, and now that the two of them are here, my second daughter Yushan can be safe." Ye Ji said: "Elder Peng, don't worry, I and Lord Lu Guan will do our best." Ye Qiu said: "Miss is weak, it's better to find someone to live in quickly." ”
At this time, Peng Yushan and Peng Yulan had already gotten out of the carriage, and when they approached several people, Peng Yushan said: "Please also ask the two of you to go back to Peng's house to rescue Brother Xu and Zheng Shaoxia, the two of them are not servants, it is really worrying." Lu Yunxiang said: "Without further ado, Senior Sister Ye, you go and settle Miss Peng, and go with me to help for a while." ”
Ye Qiu understood, Peng Yulan helped Peng Yushan to get into the car, Mrs. Peng Huai Peng also got into the sedan car, the two coachmen also drove into the village, Ye Ji and Mrs. Peng Huai Peng sat in a car, Lu Yunxiang and Peng Yushan Peng Yulan sat in the same car, Ye Qiu pointed the way outside the car, put the sword scabbard in the sedan car, so as not to suspect the villagers, at this time several families have opened the main gate, is sweeping the mud outside, seeing the two cars into the village, since also a little nervous, seeing that the car is an ordinary horseman, it also dispels doubts, until the two cars to the door of the old man.
There was no trace at the door, Ye Qiu and the others entered the house, and when they saw that there was no one in the house, they entered the courtyard, and saw that the old man walked out of the kitchen house, and saw a few people dressed in silk and satin, which was brilliant and beautiful, but not like the people of the rivers and lakes, and saw Ye Ji and Lu Yunxiang, so they knew that they were the people from the rivers and lakes who came here to stay here last night, so the old face sank, and he came over and said: "What are you two doing here, didn't you already let you stay overnight last night?" Ye Ji apologized:" Old gentleman, this is a family member in the village in front of her, and her daughter is weak and chased by thieves, and now she can't move an inch, and she still wants to do it conveniently?"
Seeing Peng Yushan's pale face, the old man felt pity for a while, so he said to him: "Even if you are sick, it doesn't hurt to rest here, but you just said that the enemy is chasing and killing in the future? What if you chase here?" Lu Yunxiang said: "Old man, please be relieved, the two disciples of the Ye Yun faction have entangled him, and the head of the Ye Yun faction is naturally safe to sit here, I will also go to help, the thief is dozens of miles away, and he doesn't know that the Peng family is here, you can rest assured." ”
The old man was relieved when he heard his words, so he immediately responded to his request, Peng Yulan escorted Peng Yushan into the house, the little maid walked to the house to clean up, Peng Yushan sat on the bench to rest, and the other little man went out of the house, led one of the carriages to the back door, and put it in the grass hut after entering the door.
Lu Yunxiang Ye Qiuye was in the house, Peng Huai was also on the side, Lu Yunxiang said: "Master Ye, you stay here to protect the old Peng family, and I will go to Peng's house with Senior Sister Ye." Ye Ji said: "Lord Lu Guan can be cautious, and he must not be careless. Lu Yunxiang said: "I have already fought with that person before, and the two senior brothers Zheng and Xu have already supported that person, so there is no need to be afraid." Ye Qiu hurriedly said: "Hurry up, the senior brother doesn't know if he lives or dies, it's really worrying." ”
The two said goodbye to Ye Ji Peng Huai, and then went out of the house, got into a sedan car, and drove to the entrance of the village.
After leaving the village, they returned along the road they came, but halfway through the car, they saw a carriage coming in front of them, and the groom at the front of the car was dressed in blue silk, and when he looked closely, it was Peng Yubo himself.
Peng Yubo also noticed Ye Qiu, stretched out his arm and waved his hand, the two cars met, and the two people in the car came down to inquire, Peng Yubo said: "Miss Ye, why are you here? My family is still safe?" Ye Qiu said: "Your family is safe, you are in the front village, how are my senior brother and Senior Brother Xu?" Peng Yubo said: "He was seriously injured and is recuperating in the car. ”
After saying that, when he saw a woman in blue getting out of the car, he asked Ye Qiu: "Miss Ye, this is ....." Ye Qiu said: "This is Lu Yunxiang, the master of the Jade Flute Gang Qingyao." Peng Yubo exclaimed: "It turned out to be the long-famous Qingyao Viewer, who has been admired for a long time. Lu Yunxiang replied: "This is the son of the Peng family, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
Ye Qiu hurriedly stepped into Peng Yubo's carriage, lifted the curtain and saw Zheng Kai and Xu Qing lying on the carriage bench, and saw Ye Qiu enter the curtain, so he sat up stiffly, Ye Qiu saw Zheng Kai's face worried, and immediately cried: "Senior brother, you are fine." Zheng Kai said weakly: "Senior brother is fine, why did you come here?" Ye Qiu said: "I have settled down in the Peng family, and I have found my father, so I came here to look for you, what happened to Pan Song, has he been killed by the two of you?" Xu Qing said: "Pan Song was not defeated, but he suddenly felt chest tightness and walked away. Zheng Kai said: "Have you seen the master, where is his old man?"
Seeing that the curtain was lifted, Lu Yunxiang entered the car, and the two wanted to get up and salute when they saw this, but Lu Yunxiang raised his hand and refused: "The two senior brothers don't have to be polite. Ye Qiu said: "Lord Lu Guan, you can help them take a look." ”
Lu Yunxiang sat behind the two, Ye Qiu helped the two of them to sit up slightly, Lu Yunxiang placed his palms on the backs of the two, felt the meridians and qi of the two, and said in his mouth: "The meridians of the two of you are damaged, and the internal strength is lost, so you can't fight with others anymore." Ye Qiu said: "Then when will the two of them get better?" Lu Yunxiang said: "I'm afraid I have to recuperate for many days." ”
Peng Yubo also got into the car and said: "At the moment, the two knights urgently need to recuperate, so hurry up." ”
Several people responded, Lu Yunxiang sat in the car, Xu Qingzheng continued to lie down, Peng Yubo and Ye Qiu were out to catch the car, the road was slippery, Ye Qiu did not dare to whip up the horse quickly because the two were seriously injured, Peng Yubo drove behind, and the speed was slightly slower for a while.
From time to time, the two cars have rushed to the small village, and after walking into the village for half a moment, they have arrived in front of the old uncle's house, Peng Yubo entered the curtain, and Lu Yunxiang helped Xu Qing and Zheng Kai get out of the car, Peng Huai walked out of the house, saw the two carriages stopped, and saw Peng Yubo Ye Qiu get out of the car, so he hurriedly came over and asked: "Bo'er, are you okay, are the two knights okay?" Peng Yubo said: "Dad, I'm fine, Zheng and Xu are a little injured, you go and make room for the two of them to recuperate." ”
