Section 9 Xing Yue and the disciples
"Yan Sen, what do you mean by this, you want to protect this kid?" Tu Fan looked at Yan Sen, who was flying back with Shi Yi, and raised his eyebrows and asked.
"He still has some use now, he can't let the third senior brother kill him for the time being, and when all the dust settles, what's the harm in giving it to the senior brother, when the time comes, it will be up to the senior brother to kill it. Yan Sen squinted his eyes and smiled at Tu Fan.
Tu Fan looked at Yan Sen and didn't speak, squatted down and carefully picked up Luo Yun, and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest. Seeing this, Yan Sen also carried Shi Yi to follow.
............
Time passed inadvertently, and after a while, the sun gradually sank in the west, and a bright moon quietly climbed the treetops.
At this time, in the mountain behind the Eagle Feather Alliance, in Xing Yue's mansion, today's birthday banquet is still going on, but unlike the kind of guests gathered at noon, the birthday banquet in the evening is quite simple and quiet. Because the evening is a family banquet, not counting the punishment himself, it is only less than twenty people, except for Zhang Tuo, Tu Fan, Yan Sen and Xue Xiaoqian, the rest are some of the best of the apprentices, Zhang Tuo's apprentices have three, Tu Fan has two, Yansen has as many as seven, and Xue Xiaoqian has three.
Although it was not as lively as the birthday banquet at noon, but now they are all their own people, and Xing Yue's interest is much higher than at noon, and even in the afternoon, because of Luo Yun's unhappiness when he left, it was diluted a lot.
"Master, you try this, this fish is produced in the coastal area of Rong Liuguo, in the deep sea whirlpool of the ebb and flow of the tide, can be caught, during which it takes decades of boating masters to not capsize in the whirlpool, but also to have proficient in diving, waist rope body load, plunge into the sea in the whirlpool to catch this fish, even so, every year, there are hundreds, experienced boatmen and fishermen, so the fish died. At the banquet, Yan Sen pointed to one of the dishes and said to Xing Yue.
"Yan Sen, you have a heart, does this fish have a name?" Xing Yue saw that in the dinner plate, the dish ordered by Yan Sen really had something unique, only to see that the fish on the plate was transparent, like crystal, through the direct moonlight, the fish was full of colors, like a rainbow.
This fish is called tide fish by the locals, and it is called rainbow (red) fish by outsiders, because there are seven colors on it through the light, and the seven colors have different tastes, which makes people have a long aftertaste and get its name. Yan Sen replied respectfully to Xing Yue.
Xing Yue was a little curious when he heard this, and put a chopstick in the blue place and put it in his mouth, the fish melted in the mouth, sweet and delicious, and there was some faint seafood, and then Xing Yue took a chopstick in the red place, and the taste was replaced by a faint burning feeling, in short, it was very magical.
"This fish is really amazing, and the taste is endless, so it's no wonder that people in the world are willing to sacrifice their lives for it, and the price is quite expensive. "I tasted the seven colors of Xingyue, and found that each color was eaten in a different order, and the combination of two and two burst out in the mouth with a new taste, which made people have endless aftertaste.
"Money is something outside the body, and the master is a martial arts giant in the world, this fish can board the master's birthday banquet, and it is the luck of its three lives to enter the master's mouth. Yan Sen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Xing Yue eat the seven colors of the fish, and complimented Xing Yue.
"Haha, Yansen, your mouth is still as good as ever. Xing Yue smiled and nodded to Yan Sen and said.
"By the way, what's wrong with Tu Fan, it's fine at noon, why is it that you don't see it in the afternoon, and your face is injured like this?" Xing Yue surrounded the disciples, and when he saw Tu Fan's strange appearance, he frowned and asked.
"Master, in the afternoon, the third senior brother went to see off the second senior brother on behalf of all the senior brothers, during which the third senior brother tried his best to stay, and he didn't want to have a quarrel, so he was slightly injured. Yan Sen hurriedly took the question, and replied on behalf of Tu Fan.
"Hmph, didn't Luo Yun say that he was dying, and he could still beat you like this, so it seems that he can live a few more years. Since he has already made up his mind, why keep him. Xing Yue was a little short-sighted, but there were disciples on both sides, and he personally agreed to Luo Yun leaving, so he didn't pursue anything more.
"However, over the years, during my retreat, Zhang Tuo and your brothers have also been tired, and the affairs of the alliance have been handled in an orderly manner, and you have contributed a lot. After laughing, Xing Yue praised a few disciples again.
"Master, the disciple also wanted to mention this time, now that the disciple is getting older, he really feels a little powerless to deal with the affairs of the alliance, and he is afraid that he will delay the major events in the alliance and fail to live up to the master's trust, so I hope to be able to step down from the position of head teacher and ask the master to complete. Zhang Tuo and Yan Sen exchanged glances, stood up and said solemnly.
"Haha, Zhang Tuo, in front of me as a master, what is the old age, besides, who else can be competent, Tu Fan, Yansen and Xiaoqian all have their own duties, who should I trust besides you, if you are really unable to do it, select a few people among your disciples, and you can also cultivate it in time. Xing Yue smiled and said disappreciatively.
"Master, since you trust us so much, can you pass on the real master, don't hide it from the master, now as you get older, your martial arts are degrading, not to mention the generation of celebrities in the middle of the rivers and lakes, they are the best of the next generation of disciples in the alliance, when we deal with it, we also have a strong sense of powerlessness, before I personally chased the three escapees, I almost let one of them go. If you are in a high position, if you don't have the strength to match it, you can only bring humiliation on yourself, and I hope that the master will follow us for most of my life, hard work and resentment, and fulfill us. With that, Yan Sen left his seat and slammed towards Xing Yue to the ground, followed by Zhang Tuo and Tu Fan.
"Hmph, what's the matter, do you want to force the palace to fail? The inheritance of the master, who does the master want to pass it on to or not, it is you as a disciple who can intervene, but it is against you. Xing Yue didn't speak, Xue Xiaoqian jumped out and belittled Zhang Tuo and them.
"What should be passed on to you has already been taught, and where else is there, don't be cranky. Seeing this, Xing Yue did not interrupt Xue Xiaoqian, and only after he finished scolding did he say to Zhang Tuo and the others with a smile.
"Master, is this the answer you gave to our senior brother? Hehe, it doesn't have to be like this. Zhang Tuo stood up and stared at Xing Yue in disappointment.
"Hehe, senior brother, isn't the master's answer expected, which shows that everything we have prepared for today is not wrong. Do it!" Yan Sen stood up with a smile, patted Zhang Tuo's shoulder, and then shouted.
As Yan Sen's words sounded, at the other table, Yan Sen's disciples, who were sitting next to Xue Xiaoqian's three apprentices, suddenly burst out, pulled out a short sword from his sleeve, and Xue Xiaoqian's two disciples were caught off guard by a sword from the back of his neck on the dining table, and the remaining one reacted a little faster to escape, but the end was also the worst, seven Yan Sen disciples with sharp blades swarmed up, and instantly stabbed him with a thousand holes.
"Master, you forced us. As soon as Zhang Tuo's words fell, his disciples also drew their blades from the table.
"Old San, even you want to oppose me. Seeing Zhang Tuo and Yan Sen suddenly burst out, Xing Yue didn't look at them, and turned to Tu Fan and asked lightly.
