These two little boys are the girl's scholars, the master left the two of them to take care of the girl, there were two attendants with swords on their waists standing outside the door, and they saw the scholar and Chen Tao from a distance, the two of them frowned, but they didn't stop them, but they only took a look at Nan Huaijin and Ji Xiang with blades on their bodies.

"Xiyao and Xixi, who are these two?" a person stopped the boy holding the medicine pot and asked.

"They are friends with Dr. Chen. ”

"Friends?" the man nodded, walked up to Nan Huaijin and Ji Xiang, stretched out his hand to block them, and said, "The two of you are friends of Doctor Chen. ”

He deliberately accentuated the word friend, his palms were full of calluses, obviously a man who practiced martial arts day and night, the other person stared at it, one hand was on the hilt of the sword at his waist, Chen Tao came over and said, "They are indeed my friends." ”

"Physician Chen. ”

Chen Tao smiled: "Okay, if you don't go in again, the wine and food will be cold." ”

"Okay. The attendant didn't stop it anymore, just looked at Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin, and re-guarded at the door, the attendant who held the hilt of the sword also nodded, and Fang Jixiang and they went in.

Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin glanced at each other, these two people are full of martial arts, and they can't tell the level of martial arts, but at least they have cultivated external skills, and there are so many calluses on their hands holding swords, which can be seen.

The courtyard was well kept, and in a circle of stones in the open space on one side, there were green turnips, and a woman in a long white robe, with no sword removed from her waist, pulled out a turnip, and put it in a basket.

"What are you doing when you come out?" asked the woman in white as she bent over and smiled when she heard the movement behind her.

A sick young lady, with a terrible pale complexion, shining eyes, very handsome, not as delicate as a rich family, with delicate eyebrows and a little heroic.

She coughed twice, looked up at the woman in white, and said, "Isn't winter over? ”

"But I can already eat. The woman in white got up and said, tossing a crisp green vegetable in her hand, which she had grown.

"Didn't you just eat it?" said the young lady, "I'm not hungry yet." ”

"How can you skip Chinese food? Doctor Chen said that your illness is ......."

Someone came in outside the door, she closed her mouth, and saw that it was two children holding the medicine pot, followed by three people, one of whom was Chen Tao.

"Physician Chen. She said, looking at the two behind her, looking strangely.

Ji Xiang didn't wait for the two of them to ask, so he arched his hand and said: "Ji Xiang, a disciple of Lingtianmen of Qingyun Mountain, and Nan Huaijin, the daughter of Sun Gongshuo, who has seen Nanwugong Sun Gongshuo, Sun Shengqing, Sun Girl, Dongqixia Zuoqing, Zuo Girl." ”

Nan Huaijin also bowed his hand, the two of them had just identified themselves, and the white-clothed woman Zuo Qing's eyes flashed, put down the white radish in her hand that had been wiped clean of the soil, frowned and looked at the pair of senior brothers and sisters, and said, "It turned out to be from Ling Tianmen." ”

"Ling Tianmen?" The woman in red was also stunned, she didn't expect that these people would be able to find here, the woman in white walked out of the vegetable field, holding the saber at her waist with one hand, ready to unsheath it at any time: "What?

The atmosphere was tense and the woman in red hadn't spoken yet, but the two attendants outside the door heard what was being said inside, and went directly into the room and stared at Ji Xiang.

Southern martial arts is the honorific title of Sun Gongshuo, the head of the Sun family in the martial arts, a master of external skills, and the ultimate cultivation of external skills, making a golden sword in one hand, in the south of the Yangtze River, has a great reputation.

As for why Zuo Qing thought that Ji Xiang and the others came to the door to seek revenge, it was because the reason why this Jiangnan wonder hero was able to rise in Jiangnan was completely because her father was one of the four major pavilion masters of Tianshu Pavilion, the daughter of Zuo Shi, the master of the Imperial Water Pavilion, Tianshu Pavilion was on the side of the emperor, which was equivalent to Ling Tianmen's enemy.

"What's wrong with you?" Chen Tao was confused, looked at both sides and asked strangely, "What are you doing?"

Nan Huaijin shook his head and said, "We didn't want to use force against them, and neither did Senior Brother. ”

Ji Xiang didn't make a move, the corners of his mouth rose, revealing a hint of chuckle: "Just them, we don't even need weapons." ”

Ji Xiang said to Chen Tao: "We just haven't seen Brother Chen for many days, and we came to see you, just to see you boiling medicine and decoction, and then we came to see who Brother Chen is saving." ”

He took out two small ingots from his arms, grabbed the thief's hand, and put them on his palm and said, "Brother Chen, everything is fine, my sister and I still have important matters." ”

Chen Tao refused, but was stopped by Nan Huaijin, she glanced at the thief's voice, smiled, and said: "We are indeed just here to see you, you keep this money, do chivalrous deeds, even if it is my senior brother to accumulate virtue and do good, we are all friends." ”

The two men did not linger, turned and walked past the two attendants, and hurried away.

"Ling Tianmen's disciples, didn't they go to Northern Liao?" Sun Shengqing, the woman in red, looked at Zuo Qing and said suspiciously.

Zuo Qing's face was very unsightly, and he nodded and said to her: "Tianshu Pavilion has already had news as early as the year when Ling Tianmen was destroyed, Ling Tianmen did go to the Northern Liao Kingdom, and they rebuilt the pavilion in Ruzhou City in Northern Liao to recruit disciples. ”

"After all, it has been passed down for thousands of years, and I'm afraid they won't give up...... Ahem, ahem. The woman in red coughed non-stop, Zuo Qing's face changed, and she hurriedly helped her, and asked loudly: "Xixi!

"I'll see. Chen Tao walked over, he didn't get angry because of the suspicion of the two, and put Sun Shengqing on the chair with Zuo Qing, touched her pulse with one hand, and then nodded: "I have suffered some wind evil, it is not in the way, this medicine is taken and it will be effective immediately, but." He didn't continue, because he knew what he meant.

Zuo Qing was relieved, took the medicine from Xiao Tong's hand, and personally fed this Sun Shengqing to eat.

"This illness is a long time, if it weren't for this disease, I would take you to the north to the place, this Jiangnan is too cold. Zuo Qing said.

She supported Sun Shengqing, such a weak woman, since she was a child, she couldn't practice martial arts like her father, not only the meridians were blocked, but this tuberculosis came from her mother, and it was so big that it was not cured.

"There is no cure for tuberculosis, that's why we're here, aren't we?" Sun Shengqing showed a wry smile, her cough at this time was still endured, otherwise I am afraid that a pale little face would be suffocated and red, and she would cough for a long time.

Her eyes were red, but she was so tired at the moment, she got up from the chair with her support, and the two of them entered the dark room.

There is no cure for tuberculosis.

Chen Tao has no way to cure this girl's disease, he has been using the method of fighting poison to give medicine to this girl of the Sun family, but now it seems that although it does play a role in relieving cough and making the patient weak, but this kind of medicine is damaging her body after all.

"We have to find a way to break the roots, otherwise, it won't be ten years. Chen Tao said to himself, he was not sure to suppress the disease, so he used the poison that was already the most suitable, and it was also helpless to fight poison with poison.

Ji Xiang walked in front, Nan Huaijin followed him, she frowned, at this moment, in her heart, she was still puzzled, senior brother is here to find Chen Tao's whereabouts, but for the Sun family's Sun Shengqing?

Is it for the Heavenly Book Pavilion to see?

Yushui Pavilion Pavilion Master Zuo Shi is a person, he doesn't care about the emperor at all, he is a person who loves quietness very much, his daughter Zuo Qing has nothing to do with her own father at all, and she is alone in the rivers and lakes, even Zuo Shi, and she has not often seen her own daughter.

Ji Xiang walked in front without saying a word, these days, Nan Huaijin felt more and more that his senior brother had become preoccupied and unfathomable over the years.

The master is gone, although the position of the master of the Ling Tianmen has not been decided, but Ji Xiang also knows that Nan Huaijin will not compete with him for this position, as for the two uncles, Shi Zun Yicun and Chen Cheng, the head of the outer gate, will not see the outside very much, although not only Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin are inner disciples in the door, but over the years, Lu Weisheng's meaning is also the choice between these two, and the position of the door master will most likely be Ji Xiang's in the future.

In this ancient Ling Tianmen, all the masters of each generation, without exception, are the great disciples of the previous master, of course, every person who walks the rivers and lakes can dominate a generation.

The only difference between this Ji Xiang is that Lu Weisheng did not leave Ling Tianmen's mastery "Ba Jue" to Ji Xiang, but handed it over to Nan Huaijin since he was a child, so whether it is the inner gate or the outer courtyard, most people feel that the position of the future master of the door is likely to be left to Nan Huaijin.

"Big brother. ”

Ji Xiang turned around, Nan Huaijin shouted at him, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Nan Huaijin thought about it, but didn't say anything, just shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”

Ji Xiang didn't think much about it, and said with a faint smile: "Okay, let's go back and hurry to Hangzhou as soon as possible." ”

Nan Huaijin nodded, didn't ask more, and followed.

Wu Zhenxi and Shi Falcon were waiting in place, Shen Jing waited impatiently, and when he saw Nan Huaijin and them, he breathed a sigh of relief and beckoned to them: "Why did it take so long, but who did you go to meet?"

Nan Huaijin nodded: "An old friend, Chen Tao, a thief." ”

Wu Zhenxi nodded: "Okay, let's rush to Hangzhou City as soon as possible, it's getting dark." ”

Ji Xiang had no objection, followed Fu Tanshan behind him, said a few words, and then everyone hurried on the road.

At night, the weather was slightly cold, in the gorge and mountains, the horse team passed through, there were no stars and moonlight in the sky, the clouds and mist covered the sky, and everyone finally saw the flat official road from afar, an official road, leading to a big city.

The city of Hangzhou can be seen ten miles away, but you can see the city tower, do not see the bed crossbow soldiers, but hung with red lanterns and splendid and gorgeous flags, the flags are brightly colored, the merchants on the road are all pouring into the city at night, this world state capital, I am afraid that there is only Bianjing City at the foot of the Son of Heaven, The eastern capital of Luoyang can be compared, extremely prosperous, every big businessman in it, all have thousands of dollars, not only a lot of carriages, but every young man on the road, all have to pull a wonderful singer, half of the city of Hangzhou, are immersed in the light of the illusory candles, the officers and soldiers who maintain order on the street, but there are only dozens of people, looking at it like a drop in the ocean, not inconspicuous at all.

In the city, only at night, people are not allowed to ride horses, this long street in Hangzhou, there is no end in sight, just because the crowd here is crowded, everyone is three or four steps apart, crowded walking.

"This Hangzhou is much more prosperous than it was during the pandemic a few years ago. "Nan Huaijin can only speak loudly, and Shen Jing and Ji Xiang on the side can hear it, otherwise the noisy voices around can force Nan Huaijin to suppress all the voices, and it is inaudible.

"When it was the epidemic, I had to ask people to rush back when I went out, how can I compare it with now?" Shen Jing is a native of Hangzhou, so he naturally understands more, these people are crowded with people, on the edge of the West Lake in Hangzhou, sometimes there are too many people, and they will be squeezed down the West Lake by the crowd, and there are always one or two unlucky eggs every year, until the next day they were not swallowed by the big fish, and they were still floating on the water, so that people knew that someone had drowned.

This Hangzhou City, the most beautiful, is the night view of the West Lake, the moonlight is blocked by dense fog, but there is always some moonlight, poured in the Ming Lake, the Imperial Concubine Tower in the distance under the moonlight, also paved with a layer of faint silver glow.

There are many people who come to the West Lake, and Nan Huaijin is overwhelmed and crowded by the crowd, just holding the reins of the horse, walking with Ji Xiang and them, just like a flat boat in the waves, helpless, passing away with the wind.

"Senior sister, follow me. Wu Jianxi said in front of her, a hand stretched out, Nan Huaijin hurriedly grabbed the arm of the senior brother, the crowd was crowded again, Nan Huaijin was under the protection of Wu Jianxi, and was dragged in front of him unharmed.

Finally, there is an open space, and the street corner of Hangzhou on the other side blends here, and the crowds are much less when they finally arrive here

Shen was panting, the people were too crowded, not only all kinds of people, but also many merchants and chivalrous men like them, leading horses and oxen, he was almost fainted by the breath of the crowd, he was from Hangzhou City, even he couldn't bear it, not to mention Nan Huaijin and them.

"Okay, let's find a place to stay first, as for Brother Shen, Hangzhou City has arrived, let's say goodbye, goodbye to the rivers and lakes." Ji Xiang said.

Shen Jing finally stopped pestering Nan Huaijin, just looked at a few of them, and finally nodded and said, "Seniors, masters, and Miss Nan, we will meet again in the rivers and lakes." ”

Several people also hugged his fists and said goodbye, Nan Huaijin nodded, looked at him and said, "We will meet again." ”

Shen Jing led the horse away, left Hangzhou, and left the Shen family for so long, presumably his father and mother were worried, and he was also worried about his father's body, so he hurriedly walked in the direction of Shen's mansion.

As for Nan Huaijin and them, they have to stay so late, many places in Hangzhou City are already overcrowded, and they can only find a rented house, Ji Xiang and Fu Tanshan have a room, Wu Jixi and Shi Falcon have a room, and Nan Huaijin has a single room by himself, and there is just one firewood room left.

Early in the morning of the second day, the five people hurriedly went out, they went around Hangzhou City to inquire about Lu Qingxue's whereabouts, Lu Qingxue's portrait was inquired by Ji Xiang and Fu Tanshan, and the news was soon heard, and someone had seen Lu Qingxue.

The little second brother of a teahouse pointed to the Imperial Concubine Tower and said: "It's still three years ago, when I packed up my things and planned to rest earlier, there was such a beautiful girl who came to inquire about the whereabouts of Master Houde, who has disappeared." ”

"At that time, I was quite strange, such a beautiful woman, who should be the daughter of a powerful family, actually ran to the teahouse to inquire about the whereabouts of Master Houde, and she was also dressed in white as you said, tattered, as if she had been cut by a sword, I want to find a doctor for her, and the person disappeared in the blink of an eye. ”

Nan Huaijin looked at Ji Xiang strangely and asked, "Master Houde?"

Ji Xiang nodded, and Fu Tanshan next to him said: "Houde is a personal disciple of Master Bao'en, and it is true that he no longer appeared three years ago. ”

"I see. Nan Huaijin bit her lip and thought hard, what was the reason for the disappearance of Master Houde and Senior Sister Lu Qingxue on the rivers and lakes.

Since the chaos in Ling Tianmen, Lu Qingxue's whereabouts have disappeared, Ji Xiang didn't think much about it, and still said to Wu Jixi, Shi Falcon and Nan Huaijin: "Since Master Houde disappeared one step ahead of Qingxue, then as long as we find it, this is still in the world, and the last person who has seen Master Houde can also know where Houde went." ”

The little second brother accepted Ji Xiang's double silver ingot, was happy, and sent these guest officers with silver out.

This Houde master, originally Shaolin came to the Imperial Concubine Tower to study, as a disciple of the master of repaying kindness, not only is Buddhism profound, martial arts are also good, in the rivers and lakes, not a lay disciple who eats the master's old book, the skill should be above Lu Qingxue.

"Houde martial arts are not bad, and he is an old monk who has cultivated profound Buddhism. Ji Xiang frowned, in his opinion, if you want to do something about Houde, your skills must be at least above the officials, if you want to bully more and cultivate Houde, both internal and external, you are not afraid of four or five square inch realms.

According to Master's words, the most difficult thing in this world is the Taoist formation, and the most difficult thing to break is the monk's golden body. Shaolin Temple's golden body method, famous all over the world, how many people steal Shaolin Temple's golden body martial arts, and finally cultivate the four dislikes.

"Let's explore again, Houde should leave a clue. "Su Sheng Fu Tan Shan is not worried, he is a famous Su Sheng, what he is best at is careful clues, and then find the answer to the root of things.

In his opinion, there are too few clues now, there are too few clues in Houde, and there are many clues in Lu Qingxue, but the clues left by the two have one thing in common, that is, the time was at least three years ago.

When the long street is daytime, there is the original noodle soup can be eaten, the soup cake is made authentic, the fresh fragrance is tired, the condiment is the most powerful, the mutton foam is evenly sprinkled, fat and thin, with the fragrance of green onions, a little burnt sauce fragrance, absolutely, the eaters only care about eating, the chopsticks trembled for a while, and shouted: "Old man, come to another bowl." ”

There are many people who eat this soup cake, just because the soup cake here is the most real, the meat is fragrant, and the taste is also the most authentic, the green onion, ginger and garlic are together, and the mutton is chewed together, that is a taste.

Although Nan Huaijin has been tired for so long and has no appetite, he was also attracted by this bowl of soup cakes, and after eating two large bowls, he didn't see much support, Ji Xiang looked at it, smiled, waved the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Old man, come five more bowls." ”

Wu Zhenxi hurriedly waved his hand, his eyes widened and said, "I really can't eat me, senior brother, you can keep it for yourself." ”

"What makes you unable to eat, look at her. ”

Nan Huaijin nodded and said, "I can still eat a bowl." ”

Shi Falcon swallowed a mouthful of meat scrap and said with a smile: "Senior sister, I am afraid that I made all the night's meals into soup cakes and ate them in advance." ”

The old man added a slippery glutinous soup cake to the bowl, poured sauce and meat, splashed it with fine ingredients, and brought it to Nan Huaijin, saying: "If you hold more of this soup cake, it will be easy to support, so let's eat less." ”

There were four bowls on her table, this was the fourth, and the three bowls were stacked on top of each other and were put away by the old man, and she stepped into place and put the empty bowls in the water.

There was a circle of people gathered on the side, all of them were young talents with dull eyes, and they were drooling not because the old man made mutton soup cakes, but because of the young beauty in front of them, this beauty was much more beautiful than the fairy in the painting, and a few talented people were already talking, and the greed in their mouths could not be concealed, and their eyes could not be removed.

It's just that this fairy is very good at eating, and has already eaten the fourth bowl of soup cakes, wiped his mouth, and then sat in his position and did not move, as if he was holding up so much that he hiccuped.

"Dare to ask this girl, whose daughter is it......" A young man just shook his painting fan and came up, and he met Fu Tanshan's cold gaze.

". ”

The boy staggered back as if he had been struck, and finally sat down on the ground, stammering, "You, you...... What are you?"

This person was frightened and just spoke, but was swept by Fu Tanshan again, and he didn't dare to speak anymore, so he quickly got up from the ground, pushed away the crowd as if he was running, and ran away.

There are many young masters in the crowd who practice the family, and their brows are furrowed at a glance, this person's body is too heavy, these people, in fact, everyone has extraordinary charm, even the beautiful woman is not a mortal, and the sharp energy on her body can be seen with her own eyes.

"Not ordinary. ”

A person said, everyone looked over, it turned out to be Song Shang, the son of the Song family, he shook the painting fan, with a sword around his waist, dressed in white, standing in front of many scholars with a lofty spirit, stepped forward and shook the painting fan in his hand, and was not afraid of Fu Tanshan, looked at Nan Huaijin and asked: "This girl, Xiaosheng Song Shang, has seen the girl, and dares to ask the girl's name." ”

is obviously a rich and noble son in Hangzhou City, who has been well-dressed and carefree since he was a child, he is outspoken and does not care about it at all.

Fu Tanshan glanced at him, Song Shang looked at him fearlessly, and the two competed against each other, but one was arrogant, and Fu Tanshan was the evil spirit of the Heavenly Book Pavilion.

Legend has it that in order to find out the news from the west, Fu Tanshan did things for the emperor, and he had no scruples, and even slaughtered a village called Wangzhuang in the west, just to find out the horses hidden in the west of the village.

This person can be called a saint, not a saint at all, but a cold-blooded and ruthless, killing and sanctifying.

This Song Shang is relying on the family behind it, the name of the Song Mansion, such as a thunderous businessman, powerful and powerful.
