Chapter 59: The In-laws Meet
Countless eyes around them moved over.
An ordinary carriage, passing by a bustling street in Hangzhou on this very ordinary afternoon, is a very ordinary thing.
But it stopped, outside Sima's mansion.
It's very unusual to stick to that.
Not to mention the fact that an unusual person came out of the carriage.
Dugu Ze!
After the death of Dugu Ming of the Wulin League, Dugu Ze became the owner of Qianhe Villa, for about half a year, after dealing with his father's funeral, he has never left Lizhou City, and he has said that he will keep filial piety for three years, and at this moment he is still wearing a decaying suit.
"What is he doing here?"
"Presumably because Dugujing is here. β
"Even if Dugujing is not here, he can't come? You and I can come, how can he not come?"
"These two families are in-laws, and they must be trying to do something by using this identity. β
Seeing Dugu Zede's figure disappear into the gate of Sima Mansion, everyone was ready to move, but no one took the lead, and after the gate was closed, it was quiet again.
Sima Fengnian is already like an ant on a hot pot at this moment, circling in the room, he really can't sleep well these days, and he can't eat well, when he heard that Dugu Ze was coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Master Dugu, you are here, if you don't come again, the life of the little old man will be gone!"
"Brother Sima, don't be in a hurry, say slowly. β
The two came to the hall and sat down, Sima Fengnian said: "It's not my daughter yet, she brought back a group of Jianghu people from nowhere, and now she still lives in the backyard, and she doesn't know what she has done, which has attracted all sects and factions in the world to want to come and find out." β
"Brother Sima, don't you know what the specific reason is?" Dugu Zeqi said.
"Yes!" Sima Fengnian remembered sweating, "Since the people from the rivers and lakes visited my house at night, I wrote a letter to the owner, and in the past month, more and more people have come to the rivers and lakes, and I really can't eat or sleep." β
"Brother Sima didn't call his darling to ask?"
"I asked, do you know that girl in my family, she is spoiled, what I say now is completely useless, he also likes to listen or not, plus I was injured before, I don't dare to ask more. β
"Hurt, I don't know what kind of injury I suffered, how did I get hurt?"
Sima Fengnian still shook his head, he didn't know Sima Fengnian's question, and Dugu Ze had no choice but to say: "Then I don't know if I can call my darling, let me ask about the situation?"
Sima Fengnian nodded again and again, but he asked: "Okay, but the owner of Dugu Village should not scare the little girl." β
Such a doting appearance made Dugu Ze frown, but he could only nod and agree. Sima Fengnian instructed his subordinates to invite the young lady, and the subordinates went in response, and after a long time, Sima Pet came.
"The younger generation Sima Pet has seen Dugu's predecessors. β
"No need to be polite. β
"Daddy, why did you call me over?" Sima Chong turned to Sima Fengnian again.
"Oh, your Uncle Dugu has something to ask you, and you tell the truth. β
"Yes, I don't know what Dugu's predecessor wants to ask the darling?"
"Now that the heroes of the rivers and lakes outside Hangzhou are gathered, I don't know what the reason is, do you know what the reason is?"
"The darling doesn't know. Sima Pet shook his head, "The affairs of the rivers and lakes are extremely dangerous, and the darling is a female streamer, and he has no power to restrain the chicken, so he doesn't dare to participate more, so I don't know why." β
"You really don't know?" Dugu Ze frowned, his tone was a little stern, Sima Fengnian even wanted to stop it, but he endured it.
"The darling does not dare to deceive the seniors. β
"Okay, let me ask you again, where is my son Dugujing now?"
Sima Pet glanced at Sima Fengnian, Sima Fengnian motioned for her to answer, and replied, "San Lang is in the village." β
"Oh, why is she here?"
Sima Fengnian's face was a little unbearable, and he wanted to speak, but Dugu Zeyi stretched out his hand to stop him: "Darling, you come to answer." β
Sima Pet hesitated for a moment and said, "Because...... The juniors want him to stay......"
"Hahaha!" Dugu Ze laughed loudly: "What a woman, what a helpless chicken." Darling, you behave more freely than some children of the rivers and lakes, and you have to do whatever you want!"
"The seniors praised it falsely. As soon as the words came out, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and it was not a very good word to put these words on a girl who was waiting to be written, so he immediately raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Sure enough, it attracted a laugh from Dugu Ze: "Hahaha! If he doesn't want to leave, I won't care about him, his grandfather let him experience the rivers and lakes, he really left with a gamble, if you like it, let him stay here forever, and you can be a door-to-door son-in-law." β
Sima Fengnian's face flushed: "This ...... The darling is young and talks nonsense, how can this matter get out!"
Unexpectedly, Sima Pet asked, "Really?"
"Darling!" Sima Fengnian was a little anxious.
"Eh, Brother Sima, hasn't the matter of the two juniors been decided a long time ago, is there anything else to worry about? The darling is a good girl, she can take a fancy to the dog, that is the blessing of the dog, and as soon as the three years of filial piety are over, let the two children get married, how about it?"
"In this matter, listen to the owner of Dugu Village. Sima Fengnian could only say so.
After all, he is not from the rivers and lakes, three years is still too long, in these three years, Sima Pet and Dugujing have not been married, even if there is a marriage contract, it is difficult for him to accept. As soon as he returned to Hangzhou, he heard that his daughter called Dugujing "fiancΓ©", and even brought him back home, so angry that he almost vomited a mouthful of old blood.
"That's so, then it's decided, there are other things to ask, don't hide it, darling. Dugu Ze said.
"Yes, senior, excuse me. β
"Who taught you martial arts?"
"Pipa and jade. β
"Where are the others now?"
β...... It's in the house. β
"This Heyu is a guest in my house, and he has been here for some years, and he only came occasionally to bring it for a few days, and he has been living here for several months. Sima Fengnian explained.
"In addition to Duan Heyu, are there any other Jianghu people in the village?"
"He is the only guest in the family, and the younger generation is the only master. Sima Pet replied.
"I'm asking about people in the rivers and lakes, not Keqing. Dugu Ze corrected.
Sima Pet was silent.
"Darling, did you hear my question?" Dugu Ze reminded.
"Yes, there is also the shopkeeper of the Ethereal Building, Le Zhengshang, who is not empty, arrogant, and ......."
"You...... You ......" Sima Feng was speechless for a long time.
In contrast, Dugu Ze was much calmer, and he didn't seem surprised: "Who else?"
"Never return to the valley, the main qin returns to the feather. β
Dugu Ze stood up instantly when he heard these words: "Sure enough, it's here." After pacing a few steps, he asked, "Do you know why they're here, darling?"
"Yes. β
"Tell me about it. β
"At the beginning, Le Zhengshang arrested a person in the Miao Building, do the seniors know?"
"Nature knows. β
"That person is Qin Guiyu, after using all means to catch it, escort it to Hangzhou, in order to prevent accidents on the way, he conspired with Zhang Kuan and Feng Xiu, and the three of them escorted him here together, in order to return to the valley's swordsmanship "Martial Arts Secret Record". β
"Martial Arts Secret Record, isn't the legend of the rivers and lakes called the Sword God Testament?"
"No, it's just the name given by the people in the rivers and lakes themselves, in fact, the secret record of martial arts was jointly created by Qin Guiyu and the predecessors of the Sword God. β
"Why do you know so well?"
"Because my master is also involved, I have been practicing the swordsmanship given by Qin Guiyu for half a year. β
Only then did Dugu Ze understand that a mere Huoyun Whip was just a fundamental, and it was impossible to attract so many Jianghu masters to come, someone must have used the Huoyun Whip to find out that Qin Guiyu was in Hangzhou, maybe he already knew the conspiracy of Le Zhengshang and others, so he flocked to it.
Also, since Qin Guiyu is in Hangzhou and Dugujing is also in Hangzhou, it means that the Qinglong Sword and the Xuanwu Double Dagger are also in Hangzhou.
The Qinglong Sword, the Xuanwu Twin Daggers, and the Secret Record of the Martial Arts, which of these three things does not make people blush? And now they are gathered in Hangzhou City and landed in this small Sima Mansion.
"The martial arts of returning to Yu with the qin are stronger than any of the three of them, Zhile Zhengshang, Zhang Madness, and Feng Xiu, and I never heard that the three of them joined forces in Lizhou City half a year ago, and Duan and Yu have not participated, how can they make Qin Guiyu cooperate obediently?"
"Le Zhengshang didn't know what method he used to catch Qin Guiyu's juniors, but after catching it, Le Zhengshang poisoned Qin Guiyu, called Soft Fragrance Seven Days Powder, no matter how high your martial arts are, your whole body is weak and your internal strength is lost, and it will recover after seven days. Le Zhengshang put this poison in his meals every few days, in order to prevent Qin Guiyu from discovering the pattern, he will go next every two or three days, there is no rule to follow, unless Qin Guiyu can go without eating or drinking for seven days, otherwise it is difficult to fly. But even if he really didn't eat or drink for seven days, he wouldn't have the strength to escape. β
Dugu Ze pondered for a long time, and after asking some more questions, Sima Pet told everything he knew.
"Since you're done asking, go back and rest, darling. Sima Fengnian said.
"Yes, the darling is retired. β
After Sima Pet left, Sima Fengnian couldn't wait to ask: "Master Dugu, I don't know how to solve this matter?"
"It's hard to say, it's easy to say. The heroes of the rivers and lakes gathered, among them, there are many martial arts masters, and the martial arts of Sword Rain Huaqing and Snow Monster have not improved for many years, and maybe they will come. But in general, just for the sake of the three things of the Qinglong Sword, the Xuanwu Twin Dagger, and the Martial Arts Secret Book, some people are insatiable and want to get them all, and some people only want the same. In my humble opinion, most people want martial arts cheats. β
"How can that be solved?" said Sima Fengnian urgently.
"Give it to them. β
"The martial arts cheats are no longer in my hands, how should I give them, how can those Jianghu characters listen to my ......"
"This matter really needs to be discussed in the long run, you have to think of a foolproof strategy, this Heyu is a guest of your mansion, presumably it will not be embarrassed, mainly because of Le Zhengshang, Zhang Zhengshang, Feng Xiu, these three people, Le Zhengshang said that he can't sell the old man a face, as for this Zhang Zheng and Feng Xiu ......"
