Chapter 143: Smiling Tiger
Du Heng frowned, looked left and right, this corridor is still some distance away from the location of the banquet, and there is a garden on the side, Lu Chengfeng can find it to ask the two Du family members who came with him.
This Wei family master is a busy man today, even if he passes by, he won't wait so long, Du Heng remembers that Lu Chengfeng talked about Mr. Ji for a long time before leaving.
However, hearing Wei Wuxing say that he knew Mr. Ji, Du Heng was also slightly surprised.
In fact, when they left Ning'an County, the nine of them had a close relationship, of course, they all knew where Ji Yuan lived in Ning'an County, as well as the jujube tree in the courtyard, Wei Wuxing's words should be true.
"Master Wei, when did you meet Mr. Ji? After leaving, Lu Chengfeng went back to find Mr. at the New Year's Pass, saying that the house would be empty a long time ago. ”
"Hehe, this Lu Chengfeng is a good person, and I will tell you after I find it!"
Wei Wuxing smiled, looked in the direction of the corridor, and then sat down beside Du Heng.
"I, Wei Wuxing, naturally met Mr. in Ning'an County, I went to buy tiger skins, and then I caught some bandits, so I delayed in the county for a while, and I got acquainted with Mr., and I was very taught by him!"
Du Heng is not from Desheng Mansion, otherwise he would definitely think of the sensational Yandi Thirteen Thieves and the behind-the-scenes ambush incident, which made Wei Wuxing famous, and made people understand that the new head of the Wei family did not know martial arts and had always pretended, not only did he know martial arts, but also his martial arts were superb.
After that time, Wei Wuxing's title of "Smiling Tiger" spread out.
Wei Wuxing smiled and sat down beside Du Heng and looked him up and down.
"At the beginning, Mr. Ji really told you that the future of surviving this catastrophe is limitless?"
"Uh... At that time, when we were resting halfway down the mountain, Mr. said this, but it was just a word of comfort to me, and now Du is half a waste......"
"Have you ever said that to other people, Mr. Ji, such as the incomparable Lu Chengfeng?"
Wei Wuxing asked, Du Heng thought for a moment and hesitated:
"It's like... No. ”
"Tut-tut-tut......"
Wei Wuxing was always smiling, even if he still didn't know how the Nine Young Heroes met Mr. Ji, whether it was after or before the fight against the tiger, and how he sent Mr. Ji to Ning'an County.
But in a few words, Wei Wuxing was sure that although the original Nine Young Heroes had known Mr. Ji earlier, they didn't know what kind of character Mr. Ji was.
On the bank of the Chunmu River outside Chunhui Mansion, the sad picture of the old turtle was unforgettable for Wei Wuxing.
"I don't think that Lu Chengfeng is too much, but it's Du Shaoxia, you, hehehe... Since even Mr. has left such a sentence for you, don't be presumptuous!"
Du Heng smiled helplessly.
"Thank you for the persuasion of the Wei family, I have seen some of it in the past few years, and I had ambitions when I just survived the pain of a broken arm, but now... Even the rest of my people don't have hope in me anymore......"
"Hehe, I don't think so!"
Wei Wuxing was very aware of Du Heng's unwillingness just now, and he hid aside but eavesdropped on his eyes for a long time.
"Moreover, Mr. Ji's so-called 'that catastrophe', you have already survived?"
Du Heng's heart shook slightly, he looked at Wei Wuxing's face that was always smiling, and subconsciously reached out to touch the empty sleeve of his right arm.
Wei Wuxing quietly approached Du Heng's ear and whispered:
"I can also be regarded as having studied some ancient books and immortal legends, such as Mr. Ji, the so-called calamity is not just physical pain, you really should have survived the injury of the broken arm?
Du Heng faced Wei Wuxing, who was chattering with some gods, and for a moment he actually had goosebumps.
Seeing that this young man with a vicissitudes of life was stunned, Wei Wuxing didn't bother him for the time being, and waited for him to show some abrupt expressions before continuing to speak.
"Okay, now you can tell me how you met Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji also has a great favor to me, and I also want to know more about my benefactor. ”
Wei Wuxing put his hands left and right into his sleeves, and with his chubby and smiling appearance, he looked like a man from the rivers and lakes, but like a squire and an old man, but this picture made Du Heng sound the other party's rarely mentioned name of the rivers and lakes, the smiling tiger.
"Actually, the so-called tiger-fighting heroes in Ning'an County deserve to call us...... That time it wasn't Mr. Ji......"
Du Heng did not hesitate anymore and slowly told the original story.
The Nine Young Heroes were young and vigorous, and the tiger was eliminated on the mountain, but he didn't care when he was reminded by a strange person, and he almost died when he met the tiger demon......
The story was more tortuous than Wei Wuxing imagined, he didn't expect that the white tiger skin was actually just a tiger demon spit out and gave to the Nine Young Heroes, nor did he expect that the gentle Mr. Ji would also have a sloppy time, but it was not strange to think about how the master chose to show up.
Not to mention the removal of the man-eating tiger, these nine people are very lucky to be able to save one life.
After listening to the whole story until the Nine Young Heroes left Ning'an County, Wei Wuxing finally determined that these nine people didn't know much about Ji Yuan, or it was too little, much less than he Wei Wei.
Even the agreement with the tiger demon, when Du Heng mentioned it, his mood did not fluctuate much, and his tone was also gentle, judging from Wei Wuxing's experience in dealing with people, these people may think that Mr. Ji deliberately prevaricated the tiger demon in order to save their lives.
"Then since Lu Chengfeng has been to Ning'an County in the New Year, did he tell you the allusion that the jujube tree was sent to Mr."
Hearing Wei Wuxing ask again, Du Heng frowned.
"I haven't heard any allusions. ”
"Oh ha... Maybe Lu Shaoxia didn't have time to hear about it, so he didn't tell you hahaha......"
Wei Wuxing smiled and explained.
The voices outside were lively, presumably a feast was about to begin.
"Let's go, Du Shaoxia, my son's full moon banquet is about to start, I can't be absent as a father, and you can't be without it, don't buy drunk here alone!"
Wei Wuxing patted his ass and stood up to take a step forward, his pot-bellied body walked as if he was writhing, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Du Heng again, who had just stood up.
"Du Shaoxia, there is a sentence I have to remind you, the covenant of the tiger demon, eighty percent is really fatal, you will forget it in three years, what about thirty years......?
After saying this, Wei Wuxing strode away, except for the garden to the banquet garden, where there was a sound of "congratulations", and he also politely returned the greeting with everyone.
。。。
When Du Heng returned to the two of his clan, the banquet had already begun, and the Wei family's subordinates took turns to serve the food, and even prepared three copper hot pots heated by charcoal for each table to add some temperature to the banquet.
For this place in Jizhou, this way of eating is very fresh, the guests are full of praise for the shabu-shabu, Du Heng is even more decadent in the past, and he doesn't drink much wine, but he keeps shaking the meat with chopsticks in his left hand.
"Brother Heng, what's wrong today?"
"I don't know, but it's been a long time since I've seen Brother Heng have such a good appetite!"
"Let's eat it too, otherwise it's all for Brother Heng!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I have to delay for so long on the way back, I can't catch up with the New Year, but I have to eat back here!"
The two of them are the side brothers of Du Heng's clan who are relatively close, and they quickly ate after exchanging a few words.
In the end, Du Heng used to be a genius with high hopes from the Du family, even if he folded his wings now, there are actually some elders in the family who care about him, and they have also thought about letting him abandon martial arts to take charge of some other family industries, but he has always been unwilling and a little decadent to make such an exception as today.
But today, Wei Wuxing's words can't be said to have inspired Du Heng, but he doesn't want to be decadent anymore, since he came to Desheng Mansion again, since he can't go home for the New Year, then after eating this full moon banquet, he might as well go to Ning'an County again!
