Chapter 20 Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots

The moonlight was hazy, and the wind lantern seemed to burn a hole in the night.

It is the end of summer, the night market in the middle and lower reaches of the Huai River is extremely lively, only to see the boss of a restaurant standing on the street, the signboard is written with three golden words of "Deyue Building", the signboard is a long time, it is smoked black paint piece, but the three words on it are shining. Half of the restaurant is repaired on the shore and half is repaired to the middle of the water, which does have a bit of the poetic and pictorial artistic conception of "mirror lake water like the moon". The people who gather together to drink in twos and threes seem to have a lot of fun today.

A middle-aged man who looked like a dart master said, "Tsk, you didn't look, Lao Tzu was in front of the door, the fire was like crazy, ahh

"Ahh

"That's right, Brother Wu, what's wrong with you coming back?" another young man dressed in the bookkeeper came up and said.

"Later?hum~" The middle-aged man drank a big bowl again, slapped the table and shouted, "Xiao Er! What kind of bird wine is this! It's tasteless! Change the knife for Lao Tzu!" This is the usual trick used by people in the rivers and lakes, drink a few bowls, and change it under the pretext that the wine is not good, of course the wine money can't be counted, that Xiao Er meets these customers on weekdays, and inevitably scolds him, but today he quickly changed a jar of authentic burning knives, and said, "Hey, this master! This is the best soju in the shop, make sure you drink a line!" After speaking, he put the pestle on the side and pricked up his ears.

During the day, there were no less than three groups of guests talking about the fire in Lujiabao, most of them were not accurate on hearsay, of course Xiao Er knew about Lujiabao, it was the family business of the famous Lu Zhennan in Huainan, who was Master Lu? Buying 180 times in a small shop like him was a trivial matter.

"This wine is strong enough~Comfortable~" The middle-aged man had three or four bowls of yellow soup in his stomach, and he was already seven points drunk, and he scolded and said, "Damn, that fire is like having eyes, tsk, dozens of lives of the whole family in Lufu!

The man with the scar and the bookkeeper gasped at the same time, and said, "Don't joke with the head of the martial arts! How can one of them not run out?

The middle-aged man slammed the table with his fist and scolded, "Straight lady thief! You're ..... What do you mean.... It's Lao Tzu.... Paste you... You guys... No... No!"

Scarface grinned and said, "Don't be angry, little brother is just curious, let's have another bowl of drink!"

Xiao Er retracted his head, pursed his lips and said to himself, "It's a pity, it's a pity, I heard that the two daughters of the Lu family are little beauties with symbols, alas...."

A woman with a light veil covering her face in the northeast corner "snap~" dropped the cup in her hand to the ground, threw out a big silver ingot, and didn't say to look for it, and rushed downstairs like flying, and after a while, there was a sound of "tuk tuk" galloping horses on the street outside.

It was Lu Xinyan who ran away from home!

Miss Lu rode the little red horse for more than 200 miles before she stopped to rest, Miss Lu thought very thoroughly, she must not pass through the place covered by the Lu family's business along the way, she fled in the northwest direction, and she didn't expect to hear such bad news at night!

Lu Xinyan clenched her teeth, letting her tears be blown into two long tear stains by the wind, the little red horse who usually takes good care of her was pulled out of the blood bar by her at this moment, the little red horse is extremely clear, knowing that the master is very anxious, she ran like crazy, the dust behind him flew Yang, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed out twenty or thirty zhang, and the end of the divine horse was incomparable.

It's late at night.

Gongsun Yang and Huiyuan had already fallen asleep. Xiao Fan and Ji Hao were in a room, Xiao Fan felt a burst of warmth in his lower abdomen in his sleep, and there was a hot warm current stringed out, the young man let it string in his body, and the meridians and viscera that flowed through were crispy and numb, so uncomfortable, Xiao Fan played with his heart, tried to control this warm current, and tried a few times and found that it was very obedient, just like his own hands and feet.

Xiao Fan was forced to practice martial arts since he was a child, although he may not have comprehended many moves, he still remembered the meridian acupoints.

The young man led this warm current around the seventy-two acupoints around him, and found that he was completely sleepy, as if he had slept all night. Listen to the street report on the time to watch, it's just a child!

At this time, Xiao Fan has peerless internal strength, and his cultivation realm has reached the height of "Hedao", which has reached the peak, and ordinary people still need to close their eyes and recuperate their minds, otherwise they will only practice more and more, and eventually lose their internal strength or go crazy. Xiao Fan's cultivation has been in line with the Heavenly Dao, even if the true qi automatically circulates in the body, a circle of half an hour will be like an ordinary person practicing hard for a day, and its speed is terrifying and terrifying.

Xiao Fan was having fun, and suddenly heard the next room choking, and after a while, there was a burst of extremely light footsteps walking out.

"Rui'er...."Xiao Fan said to himself, and immediately got up and chased out.

Lu Rui'er ran to a secluded place outside the inn, squatted down and whispered, "Daddy, sister, Rui'er is so worried about you" After speaking, she began to sobble again, and after crying for a while, she said, "Daddy usually benefits the people and acts fairly, but today he was killed by the Wang thief for no reason, Rui'er will definitely avenge you!"

Xiao Fan hid behind the grass, listened to her sad feelings, and became sad and sad.

The girl continued, "Daddy usually teaches me the formation, but it's all strange that Rui'er is naughty and hasn't studied it well, and Grandpa Gongsun Yang has taken the "Array Book Astronomy" in the ancestral hall, Daddy, sister, don't worry, Rui'er will study it seriously from now on....." said and began to cry again.

Xiao Fan was about to go over and persuade her, and suddenly heard a hidden breath on the treetops in the northwest corner, the person who came was obviously a hidden master, if it weren't for the fact that Xiao Fan's whole body organs were repeatedly sharpened and tempered by the innate true qi of the Qilin Bead, even if Gongsun Yang was here, it would be impossible to detect the existence of that person without deliberately stalking him.

Lu Ruier didn't know it, and after crying a few lowly, she stood up and wanted to go back, but at this moment, the man suddenly became difficult, and the dagger in his sleeve reached the back of the girl's neck in a flash.

Xiao Fan saw it clearly, as soon as the person moved, he immediately shouted "Rui'er be careful", and also flew out, and the latter came first to block behind Lu Rui'er, the person was imminent, and there was no reason to stop it, the dagger stabbed into Xiao Fan's left chest with a "snort", and the young man's right hand swung a fist and smashed it on the person, and the person flew back upside down like a broken kite, breaking two bowl-thick trees in a row, and the castration still did not slow down.

"Brother Xiao!" Lu Rui'er lost her face, and just turned around and shouted, Xiao Fan's throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on the girl's face, falling into a coma.

"There are traces of blood, but there is no body," Huiyuan pushed the door in and said, "It seems that there is more than one person"

Gongsun Yang sat on the edge of Xiao Fan's bed with a gloomy face, and Lu Ruier lay on the edge of the bed but was extremely tired and fell asleep.

Ling Xiaozi and Luo Jingshu were seriously injured and had not recovered, and they couldn't support it for too long and went back to the house to rest, Ji Hao took a basin of cold water and kept changing the towel on Xiao Fan's forehead.

"Hmph, dare to hurt my grandson in front of my grandson, good, good, good!" Gongsun Yang laughed angrily, "When the old man recovers from his injury, he will definitely go to the capital to meet Wang Yishan for a while, hum, Wang Dingtian is also the number one person, but the descendants are a group of rats, sad, really sad" The old man's face turned blue.

"Senior, don't worry, how is Xiao Fan's little benefactor?" said Huiyuan.

"Don't get in the way, the knife that this kid ate was very deep, but it didn't hurt his heart" Gongsun Yang said, his face was a little weird, "Ordinary people eat this knife and have to stay in bed for a month or two, this kid has healed himself in less than two hours, it's really incredible...."Gongsun Yang's words changed, and he asked, "Little monk, what do you think about this matter?"

Huiyuan Zhengse said, "The urgent thing at the moment is to find Miss Lu, since the little monk has answered Lord Lu, he will definitely do it, but after that..... I can't accept female disciples in Leiyin Temple, so how can this be good" Huiyuan smiled bitterly.

"The little monk Hugh wants to set the old man, my snow mountain is not for anyone to enter" Gongsun Yang said with a smile, "Leiyin Temple can't tolerate women, and Xuanmiaoguan can't tolerate it?"

Huiyuan's little trick was pierced in front of him, touched his nose and said stupidly, "Thank you so much seniors, alas.... What is the meaning of Lu Shizhu's last sentence, he said, 'Wang Yishan stole Wu Mu', Wu Muding refers to Marshal Yue, I don't know what this matter has to do with Marshal Yue"

Gongsun Yang said, "Marshal Yue is loyal to the country, and the old man has always admired him, but Yue Wumu's body was buried next to the Jiuqu Cong Temple outside the Qiantang Gate, which is thousands of miles away, but the old man doesn't understand the reason."

The two of them pondered for a moment, then ignored it, as long as they found Wang Yishan in the future, things would be clear.

"Senior, Xiao Fan's blow from the little benefactor, I'm afraid that no one in the world can match..."Hui Yuan praised "That person actually flew out more than 20 zhang after breaking two trees, and changed the little monk to bear that.. I'm afraid I can only avoid its edge."

"Hehe, the little monk really has a lot of eyes," Gongsun Yang laughed, "Are you afraid that this kid will have a bad heart and endanger one party in the future?"

Huiyuan was exposed to the little trick for the second time, and the old man blushed and said, "The senior's eyes are like torches, before Ling Xiaozi and I agreed that Xiao Fan's little benefactor did have a righteous spirit in his chest, but everything has a case, I hope the old gentleman will teach one or two"

Gongsun Yang said, "The old man pays attention to his willfulness, Xiao Fan's heart is all up to him, you don't have to worry about this matter."

Huiyuan sighed, "I hope Brother Ling and I haven't lost our eyes."

The two chatted for a while, and the night faded, and a touch of fish belly white had risen in the east, and they went to rest.

In the dark secret room, a hoarse male voice with gold and stone in it said with a slight anger, "Explain"

"My lord, that kid surnamed Xiao only punches.... and killed the third child."

"Continue," the male voice said emotionlessly.

"The three of us brothers are guarding three intersections, the girl of the Lu family came out from the third child, and the two of us rushed over immediately when they got the code, and saw that the third brother was punched out by that kid for twenty or thirty zhang..."

"Oh?"

"My lord, this matter is true, we brought back the body of the third child, you can go and check it out"

"Stand down," the male voice was silent for a moment and said, "Xiao Fan?
