There was a person in the boat, it was Qin Lang. He looked at the three of them with a smile on his face and said,

"Brother Xiaoyi, Brother Lu Lu, Sister Bai Qing, Childe saw you from the boat, so he asked the master to call you up. Are you surprised to see me here?"

Tong Lu patted him and said with a smile,

"Hey, Xiaolang, I haven't seen you for more than half a month, but I'm a lot stronger, isn't Sister Yan's food too good. We have to go and have a few meals. ”

He paused and asked,

"Hey, by the way, how did that person become your master?"

Qin Lang said with a smile,

"That's a long story, let's go see Childe first. ”

Qin Lang led the three of them up the ladder and came to the top private room. Qin Lang greeted the guards on both sides, knocked on the door lightly and explained his intentions. There was a light call from inside, and Xiao Yi heard that it was the voice of the prince, that is, the current Emperor Dali. The door opened, and the person who greeted him smiled playfully, it was the young scribe who used his body to block a sword for the prince. He smiled and said,

"Three little heroes, please. ”

Tong Lu laughed when he heard this,

"The two of us, one of us can only have some medical skills, and the other is more capable, but I don't know anything about martial arts, how can we be called 'chivalrous'. ”

The man's face did not change and replied,

"This little B brother is heroic and chivalrous, unparalleled in the world, a good kung fu, there is that ten thousand people are brave, the so-called things gather people in groups, his friends must not be general, why not call the two little 'heroes'!"

The three of them were also happy when they heard this, and they were about to say a few words to him, when they heard an urgent shout from inside,

"Sun Baoshan, is it so hard to open the door?"

This Sun Baoshan stuck out his tongue at the three of them, and said with a smile,

"Childe has already prepared the drinks, please come with me. ”

The three of them followed Sun Baoshan, bypassed a carved screen, and met the current Emperor Dali. The three of them didn't know the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, but they just hugged their fists and saw the young emperor, and the emperor was not annoyed, and said with a smile,

"It's a coincidence, we can meet here, come and sit down here, and have some drinks and snacks together. ”

The emperor stretched out his hand and motioned for the three of them to sit down, took the wine jug and filled it for the three of them, and said with a smile,

"This drink and snack is no worse than the 'Wind Flower Snow Moon', you taste this first, and then I will take you to the Wind Flower Snow Moon when I am free!"

Xiao Yi picked up the wine glass and smelled it, only to feel that the wine was fragrant and elegant, very gentle, he looked at Bai Qing, saw Bai Qing nodded slightly, and drank it all in one gulp. Although this wine is not very strong, it has an endless aftertaste, Xiao Yi couldn't help nodding and said with a smile,

"It's a good wine, but it's a little smaller. ”

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help laughing,

"Okay, you Xiaoyi, this young age is so heroic, and it will be okay in a few years. You and I haven't healed yet, so let's use this small cup first, and then replace it with a large bowl later. ”

Xiao Yi smiled,

"That's natural, you can drink with the emperor, and you can drink a small cup with pride!"

Tong Lu squirted out the wine with a snort,

"Brother Xiaoyi, when did you learn to shoot on the back, and you did a good job, I'm afraid you won't lose to our Lord Sun!"

That Sun Baoshan always stood aside with a smile, and nodded slightly when he heard his name. The emperor laughed and pulled the wound that had not yet fully recovered, and cold sweat broke out on his nose, but he said with a smile,

"Brother Xiaoyi, the three of you are only sixteen or seventeen years old, but you are arrogant and dry, if you don't dislike it, you will have a one-and-a-half-official position in my palace, and we will make a good career together in the future. ”

Xiao Yi touched his head and said with a smile,

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to wait, it's just that the three of us are not here, and I hope the emperor can understand. ”

The young emperor looked at Xiao Yi and nodded slightly,

"I don't want to force it, but I regret it a little. You don't have to be polite when you see it in the future, but you can change your name together, just like them, call it Son. ”

"Childe. The three of them shouted with a smile, and the emperor nodded, and gently opened the window three fingers wide, and he leaned close to the window to look out, before slowly echoing,

"It's really lively outside, and my heart rejoices to see this people living and working in peace and contentment. Hey, now that I am the emperor, I realize that this burden is very heavy, and I am really ashamed of my former misdeeds. ”

Xiao Yi took a sip of wine and said with a smile,

"Childe's ship is extremely luxurious, at a glance, you can see that a big man is coming, and the people are envious when they see it, why don't Childe abandon the boat and go ashore and have fun with the people?"

The young emperor's body was shocked, and he replied,

"yes, I didn't think of that. I have been clothed and fed since I was a child, and I always bring a large team of people when I go out, and now it seems that there is no majesty, but some prestige. ”

He turned his head to look at Sun Baoshan, and said,

"Baoshan, you go and make arrangements, we will go ashore and celebrate this Lantern Festival with the people. ”

Sun Baoshan hesitated, the young emperor glared angrily, and he opened the door with interest. The emperor looked at Sun Baoshan's departing back and said with a smile,

"This Baoshan is very clever, not only eloquent, but also good at dealing with people. The most important thing is that he can read my mind, what to say and do, and he has a very good grasp of the scale, and he almost lost his life to save me. With such a person by your side, I don't know how much trouble I can reduce, and naturally I am much more comfortable. ”

The young emperor looked at Bai Qing, then at Xiao Yi, and said with a meaningful smile,

"Brother Xiaoyi, do you want to handle the marriage for your brother for you, to ensure that it is magnificent and different!"

When Bai Qing heard this, his face turned red, and he lowered his head and took a sip of his wine. The young emperor looked at it and smiled,

"Why is this Bai Qing sister blushing, didn't she want to marry my little brother Yi a long time ago. ”

Bai Qing's face blushed even more, and when he was illuminated by the candlelight, he seemed to be covered with rouge. The Emperor went on to quip,

"Hey, it's not that you don't want to, hey Brother Xiaoyi, this is not easy to do. In this way, I will find hundreds of beautiful women and let you choose by yourself, one is a lot, two is not much, if you accept it together, you should also do it when you are a brother. ”

Tong Lu watched Bai Qing's face turn from red to purple, and laughed out loud,

"Childe, my family is white-skinned and thin-skinned, don't tease her anymore, it's not easy for her to cry. ”

Bai Qing also knew that the emperor was teasing her, but she didn't listen to her and betrayed herself, so she had to bury her head lower. Xiao Yi looked at Bai Qing, and her heart was also happy, but she knew that she cared about herself, reached out and clasped her hand and said,

"Childe has a good intention, we are still young, and it is not too late to get married in two years. ”

The young emperor smiled,

"What is the young age, when I was as old as you, Huan'er was already on the big belly, and now she is pregnant in August, I just hope she can add me a little princess!"

The emperor's eyes were full of pity, Xiao Yi had never seen such tenderness, and thought that this boy also had such a warm time. At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a person outside said,

"Childe, everything is arranged, please move a few of you. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Sun Baoshan. Xiao Yi and a few people followed the emperor out, and Tong Lu didn't forget to carry a few more delicate snacks. Sun Baoshan put on a fox fur for his son, and carefully helped him down to the edge of the boat. I saw two sturdy boats parked aside, two men in ordinary clothes standing on one of the boats, and an escalator on it, firmly grasped by the guards. Sun Baoshan and Qin Lang helped the emperor down to the small boat, and when Xiao Yi and the three of them came up, the boat could no longer seat more people. Several soldiers who had changed their clothes went down to the other boat one after another, and Qin Lang shook the oars, and the small boat slowly separated from the big boat and slowly rowed towards the shore. The boat behind him followed closely, and Xiao Yi found that one of them was a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, it was actually the master guard who was still injured. There are many floating lanterns in this water, and the boat seems to be passing through this sea of lights, and the beauty is difficult to describe. Xiao Yi saw that a lantern was actually written with words, and the font was beautiful, but he was afraid that the person who wrote it was a young woman, and he didn't want to peep into other people's privacy, so he simply swiped his fingers and pushed the lantern further, hoping that the god of Erhai Lake would see what she wanted.

After a short time, the ship had docked, and Qin Lang parked the boat in a no-man's land, intending to go around with everyone. Childe was in a good mood, and after going ashore, he didn't need the help of others, and walked side by side with Xiao Yi to Moon Bay. The people were ashamed, and the guards scattered tacitly, but they kept a certain distance in case of accidents. Childe's side, only the man with the gun, Qin Lang, Sun Baoshan and Xiao Yi were left by their side.

The bright moon hangs high, and the sea surface is illuminated brightly white, coupled with these various lanterns, people are inexplicably happy to see. Xiao Yi bought a few lanterns for Childe, and Childe played with it, but he didn't want to leave. A child in tattered clothes looked at Childe infatuately, and did not move for a long time, but Childe saw that he was cute, so he gave him one. The boy took the lantern, and without thanking him, he ran away. Childe looked at the child's excited appearance, and he didn't care at all. After a while, the little boy brought a girl, the girl was about three or four years old, holding the lantern that the boy had just given her, and the two children came to the water's edge, gently put down the lantern, and folded their hands to make a wish. The child clasped his hands together and watched the lanterns drift away until he could no longer see, then he withdrew his gaze. The two children came to the boy and bowed together, and the little boy smiled and said,

"Thank you Childe for the lanterns, my sister likes it very much!"

Childe has experienced such a brother and sister affection, his eyes are red, and he replied,

"How can you rest assured that you are here, my lords? ”

The boy smiled and said,

"We have long been orphaned, thanks to the care of our uncles and aunts in Shangyi Village, we will not starve to death and freeze to death. We saw that so many people suddenly came to Moon Bay, and they also came to join in the fun. I saw that my son had all these lanterns in his hand, and I thought to myself that if I could share one, then my sister could also put one. I didn't expect Childe to really give me one, thank you so much!"

After speaking, the boy took his sister's little hand and swayed it back and forth, and the two giggled, only to hear the boy say,

"Sister, thank you uncle!"

The two children shouted softly in unison,

"Thank you, uncle!"

After speaking, the two ran away with a smile, and the child's voice was crisp and lingering. Childe actually shed tears. He gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said slowly,

"I never thought that there would be orphans in this rich Dali city with nowhere to depend, and then think about what the situation would be like in that poor and remote country. I don't know how to be a good king in this world when the people are suffering, it's really painful! And this uncle just now, hey, if you can't love the people like a son, how can you be worthy of this uncle. ”

Bai Qing said with emotion,

"Childe, you see that this child is very satisfied with this little benefit, and the people are the same, they really don't want much, they can be fed, clothed, and safe, and that's enough. ”

Childe nodded, looked at Bai Qing, and said with a smile,

"Xiaoyi, your daughter-in-law is a female Bodhisattva, you can't bully her in the future, otherwise I will send elite soldiers to chase you and tie you up in front of her to kowtow and admit your mistakes. ”

Xiao Yi took Bai Qing's little hand and laughed,

"Qingqing, I used to have my sister Aunt Gu stand out for you, this is good, even the Emperor of Dali, uh, Gongzi also spoke for you, I don't dare to bully you anymore. ”

Bai Qing glared at him, but his heart was extremely beautiful, and he whispered,

"Thank you, Childe, you can talk about it!"

Childe blinked, and several of them laughed together.

A few people put lanterns, played around to enjoy the scenery, and went to the food stall to eat some snacks and fruits. Childe seemed to have never eaten such a delicious food, but he couldn't stop, and tasted all the food around him, and finally he sat by the water with a round belly, recklessly soaking up. Childe touched his stomach and smiled softly,

"I often go to famous buildings such as 'Wind Flowers and Snow Moon', thinking that it is the most real delicacy in the world, but I don't know that the most beautiful taste is in this folk, in this ordinary countryside. In the future, when I have time, I will come to this countryside to look for it. ”

Bai Qing smiled and continued,

"Don't just eat and drink, but also take the time to feel the suffering of this people!"

When a few people heard this, they also laughed. The moon in the sky, the moon bay on the earth, the heavens and the earth, are happy.

Before I knew it, the night was deep, and there were still a few guest rooms on the big boat, so the son invited Xiao Yi and the three of them to stay on the boat for one night. The three of them were full of joy, they had never thought that they could spend the night on such a magnificent ship, so they agreed to come down. The crowd slowly dispersed, leaving only a few young scribes who had drunk too much, and a few puppies looking around for the scattered delicacies left by the tourists. When the boat approached, the men got into the boat one by one, and set sail toward the big boat.

After a short time, he docked with the big boat, Qin Lang got on the boat first, and was pulling Gongzi upward, climbing halfway, when suddenly the water surface swayed, and two figures appeared, two long knives shining, one left and one right straight to the back of the child's heart. Childe's own martial arts are mediocre, and his injuries have not healed, how can he resist. Seeing that the situation was in danger, Xiao Yi could only subconsciously attack the one who was close, and that person was swept by Xiao Yi and fell into the water. Qin Lang was shocked and wanted to jump down to break the siege, but he saw a figure flash down and pounce straight towards the long knife. This figure was like a mass of flesh shield, pierced by this sharp knife, and the momentum of this fall also smashed the man into the water with a knife. The blood stained the water red, and a moment later, a man emerged from the blood-red, who was the most effective spear guard beside the young man. I could only hear Qin Lang shouting loudly,

"Master, master!"

He hurriedly picked up the son and went to the boat, and then jumped into the water, and several guards also took the hand and dragged the man and the two killers' bodies to the boat. In the room, Qin Lang took off the master's coat and kept rubbing the master's body, wanting to add a touch of warmth to the master, Sun Baoshan took the brazier and put it in the room, but the man didn't wake up, and his body slowly cooled down. Bai Qing's face turned pale, and after sitting next to the man and examining it carefully, he said slowly,

"I'm afraid that Huitian will be weak, the master was seriously injured, and he ate such a knife, and then when he fought with that person in the water for a long time, he bled too much, Xiaolang, you have to be stronger." ”

When Qin Lang heard this, tears welled up, but he didn't cry. Not long after, the man passed away in Qin Lang's arms, everyone sighed, and no one spoke.

Childe asked the two people to check the bodies, and Xiao Yi's stick hit the thief in the chest, and the man was so distracted by the blow that he was drowned in the water. Another person was stabbed with multiple blood holes in his abdomen, and at a glance, he knew that Master Qin Lang had done it in the water. The guards did not find any suspicions, but they were afraid that these two people came prepared and did not leave any way for themselves to retreat. Sun Baoshan checked the two corpses for a long time, but found no clues, so he had to shake his head and go back to the house. As soon as he came in, he saw the appearance of everyone, and his heart was already clear, so he only heard him say softly,

"Second Brother Qi has been a good man for a lifetime, and we will remember it for a lifetime. Childe, the second brother also accepted the heir before he died, which can be regarded as a wish, let's let this Xiao Lang take care of the funeral for him. ”

After listening to this, Childe nodded and said,

"The second brother has been by my side for many years, although I am so willful, but I have never complained, I have long regarded him as my own brother in my heart. He has seven brothers and sisters, all his life is chivalrous, but they all died because of me, I am so stupid!

After speaking, Childe couldn't cry anymore, and knelt down to the man. When he knelt, everyone was shocked, Sun Baoshan opened his mouth wide, but he didn't dare to speak. Everyone knows that the prince has experienced so many changes in this month, and it seems to be reborn, but as a monarch, how rare it is to kneel for a personal guard. After crying for a while, Childe stroked the pale second brother with his hand, and said slowly,

"Xiao Lang, take care of the master's funeral, you can go back to the palace with me. Your master specially instructed me before his death, and I think you understand. ”

Qin Lang's eyes were dilated, he nodded slightly in agreement, and replied,

"Gongzi Xie, the master also told me that I know what to do. Childe, and everyone, can you let me be alone with my master for a while, I still have something to say to him. ”

Everyone felt uncomfortable, but they slowly retreated according to his words. When a few people came to the private room where they first saw Gongzi, Sun Baoshan brought a pot of sake and poured a glass for everyone. Xiao Yi drank a cup and slowly exhaled a breath before asking,

"Childe, can you talk about this Cang Qixiong? Also, how could Xiao Lang worship this Second Brother Qi as a teacher!"

Childe was stunned, and said for a long time,

"Let Baoshan tell you, he knows all these things. ”

Sun Baoshan took over and said,

"You've guessed that they're the thunderous Dian Qi Xiong. The seven of them are the most desirable people in this Dali country, if they face any of them alone, I am afraid that there are few people in the entire Dali country who can have a chance of winning. They originally came from all over the world, and because of this favor, they practiced martial arts. Several like-minded people, they married Jin Lan, known as the Seven Heroes of Diancang, and since then, this reputation has resounded throughout the Dali country. Many people came to challenge, most of them fled, and occasionally they could resist dozens of moves, and they could become famous after returning to their hometowns. Therefore, this Dali Jianghu has a shortcut to fame quickly, which is to challenge this Cang Qixiong. Within a few years, these seven heroes were tired of such a competition, so they stopped competing with others, and when others came to the door, they just asked for a cup of tea, and no longer did anything with others. Occasionally, they encounter arrogant people, but most of them don't need seven people to do it, and a few nearby hermits can get rid of it. ”

"Many years later, this point of Cang Qixiong's residence is gone. It's good now, several people are martial arts practitioners, how can they endure such loneliness. So the seven agreed that each of them would take an apprentice and teach them martial arts, and compete with each other every half month, and the winner would be able to instruct the remaining six to do one thing. In less than half a year, except for the second brother Qi, the rest of the people brought back satisfactory apprentices after traveling around, but the second brother would rather be lacking than rotten, and he never found a suitable candidate. More than ten days ago, he came to this Erhai Lake with the ashes of the other six people, but he happened to meet Qin Lang. This Qin Lang has excellent physical fitness, and that day he used a pole as a gun on this shore and danced a string of gun flowers, and the second brother was extremely excited when he saw it. Thinking that the six male apprentices have been following the master for ten years now, and the second brother has only now found a good apprentice, how can he not be excited, and the wound attacked, and he fainted. When he woke up, he was in Qin Lang's house. Qin Lang took good care of him, so he naturally became a master and apprentice. Although the time is not long, but listening to the second brother, although Qin Lang is still young, he is a rare talent, not only has a talent for martial arts, but also is full of righteousness, he thinks that if Qin Lang follows him, he will definitely become his right-hand man, so he took him with him. The second brother's mind has been on this apprentice these days, and the son didn't say anything when he saw that he was happy, but just asked him to pay more attention to his body. Qin Lang is a smart child, and he quickly wrote down the second brother's martial arts experience one by one, and he has been practicing that gun style proficiently in the past two days. Hey, but this creation makes people, the two of them don't get along for half a month, and they have to be separated by yin and yang. ”
