Chapter 9 Enter the General's Palace

Liu Yi and his entourage walked out of South Street, walked a hundred meters to the right and came to the door of the general's mansion.

The gate, which is three meters high and two meters wide, is closed, with two knockers in the style of pepper on the door, and a plaque on the top of it that reads six large golden characters of the residence of General Chungmu.

There are two stone lions in front of the door, the male lion on the left has a hydrangea under his feet to symbolize the completion of everything, and the female lion on the right has a lion cub under his feet to symbolize the prosperity of the offspring.

Liu Yi and several teenagers saw these two stone lions, so they put down the sugar gourd in their mouths and looked at them carefully, this lion alone made several of them look surprised, the stone lion is lifelike and quite majestic.

Xu Mo opened the door and invited the lark to walk in, Liu Yi and the teenagers watched it attentively, and only then did they react and walk in.

When you enter the door, you will see a huge brick carved shadow wall, on which is depicted a big blessing character, occupying the entire center of the shadow wall, surrounded by some patterns

There were two family members in front of him who led the way, led a few people to the right corridor, walked into the courtyard, turned a corner to the left, passed by the east wing, and Liu Yi saw the scenery of the atrium.

The atrium is a huge area, and in the middle is a turquoise pond with colorful koi fish, and the river has turquoise lotus leaves and red lotus flowers.

There are rockeries, trees, flowers and plants on the side of the pond, and there is a pavilion on the side, and the scenery in the atrium dazzles Liu Yi and the others.

Further on, there are all kinds of weapons in the martial arts training ground, and there are a few strong men practicing martial arts in it, Liu Yi is a little far away and can't see it really, but he only feels that they are practicing boxing and are tiger and tiger.

He followed the family to the front room and stopped, and Xu Mo led the larks in.

Everyone only saw a middle-aged man sitting on the Taishi chair in the middle of the hall, the middle-aged man was tall and straight, wearing a casual dress and his face was very resolute.

The man sat in the Taishi chair and looked at the scroll in his hand, and when he heard the voice, he saw Xu Mo walking in with Liu Yi and a few people, so he hurriedly put down the scroll and stood up.

He stepped forward and looked at Xu Mo and said, "Mo'er, are you okay," he said as he held Xu Mo's shoulder and carefully looked at his whole body, fortunately he was only a little embarrassed, and there were no other injuries on his body.

Xu Mo said: "The child is fine, fortunately, there is a lark Zidao to save him, which makes my father worried." ”

Hearing that his son was fine, Xu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw the lark behind him, he smiled and said: "Welcome to the lark sect to come to this mansion, please sit down, Xu Qingshan wants to thank you for saving the dog's life, please sit down, come and watch the tea." ”

The lark and a few people hugged their fists in return and found a place to sit down, and the lark chatted with Xu Qingshan, and it was a little inconvenient for Liu Yi and a few teenagers to be present, so Xu Mo took the initiative to take Liu Yi and a few teenagers to the house to play.

After a few people went out, the maid came up and poured a cup of tea for the lark, and then retreated, General Xu took a sip of tea and took the lead in speaking: " The world's martial arts exercises are like countless stars in the sky, the exercises of the Tai Chi Sect are unique in the martial arts, and another will admire, the general itself is clumsy in martial arts, and the martial arts are still a little studied, this Tai Chi method is very ingenious to practice but it is difficult and difficult, this will talk to your sect master in the Tai Chi Sect, the sect master will be the Tai Chi cultivation method of the way of operation and the general, but the general will be a lifetime of war and killing is difficult to hide, and the military affairs are busy on weekdays, pure cultivation is just a luxury, destined to have no chance with this mysterious law. After speaking, Xu Qingshan sighed, with a look of regret on his face.

After hearing this, the lark smiled and said: "The general has a heavy burden on him, Shaocheng is located in the hinterland of Jiang State, and there are many people coming and going, so the general is naturally busy with work for the peace in the city, and he can't calm down, but only people like the general can protect the people and make the people feel at ease." ”

"Hahahaha Yun Dao is serious, what Ben Jiang does is just his own job, since he is in an important position, he must be worthy of the people and the court, by the way, quickly introduce these heroes to Ben Jianghu, and save Ben Jiang's son Ben Jiang has not thanked him well. ”

The lark nodded and said: "The general doesn't need to thank a few of us for seeing such a thing, how can we stand by and watch, saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, this is the void phase master of Weituo Temple." ”

As soon as the lark said that he was empty, he stood up and made a Buddhist salute and said, "I have seen the general." ”

General Xu said to the empty phase: "The monks of Weituo Temple don't have to pay much respects, Weituo Temple is famous for saving people and Pudu sentient beings. ”

The empty phase said: "General Amitabha Buddha doesn't have to be polite, the poor monk must save people when he sees this, and as a member of the Buddhist family, he will naturally not sit idly by." ”

General Xu looked very happy with a smile on his face, and looked at the lark again.

Skylark continued: "This is Fan Yan of the Fist Sect, who is the one who stopped the three gangsters who kidnapped the son. ”

Fan Yan stood up and clenched his fists, and said in a loud voice: "I've seen the general," General Xu looked at Fan Yan's tall and strong body, strong breathing, loud voice, and full of energy, and he looked like a master.

"A good hero is really not weak in kung fu, thanks to the hero who stopped those gangsters and brought them to justice, he was going to have a good time drinking later. ”

Skylark continued: "This is Lin Qingchen, the Taoist of Lingxiao Guan," Lin Qingchen also stood up and clasped his fists and said, "I've seen the general." ”

General Xu looked at Lin Qingchen, his eyes were clear, his expression was indifferent, and he said: "Ling Xiaoguan is beyond the world, concentrating on cultivation, and it is obvious that he has seen people in the Taoist Temple, and today he can see that he really has an extraordinary temperament, please take a seat." ”

Skylark continued: "This is Ji Yunxi, a lone swordsman. Ji Yunxi stood up, clenched his fists and said, "I've seen the general." ”

Xu Qingshan said: "It is very difficult to cultivate the way of the sword, and there are many people who use the sword, and there are several young swordsmen who are famous, and the sword is as cold as cold as Yunxi, it must be this young young man." ”

Ji Yunxi said: "Don't dare to be in the next place, you can't be on the table on the way of the sword, and you don't dare to say that you are famous." ”

Xu Qingshan laughed and said: "Hahaha, ambitious, driven, young and modest, very good, I will look forward to your future achievements, please take a seat." ”

After Ji Yunxi sat down, General Xu said again: "Chief Yundao, where are you and your group going?"

The lark replied: " It's a shame that a few days ago, the old man was surrounded and killed by a group of demon cult people, and he was chased and killed by the demon cult people in a cave behind a mountain village, and the injuries on his body did not heal, and he didn't want to affect the people in the village, only saved the few young people who were just a few people, but the old man was no match for the demon cult and almost lost his life, but fortunately, Lin Qingchen and a few people arrived in time to save the old man and a few teenagers, otherwise the old man would have died there, but the people in this demon sect killed innocents indiscriminately along the way, and the old man returned to the sect to trace the traces of this demon sect to avenge this great revenge, otherwise the old man was ashamed of the ancestors and the dead villagers, these teenagers lost their parents and were lonely, and a few of us took them as apprentices, ready to rush back to their respective sects, teaching the exercises also gives them a place to live. The lark gritted his teeth and hated it.

General Xu frowned as if he was thinking about this, and after the lark finished speaking, General Xu said: "The people you said have also heard about in the city, but they are all missing, and the whereabouts of these people have never been found, I have only heard that someone has seen people in black clothes and masks wandering around at night, but listening to what you said, it seems that I would have paid attention to this matter and sent someone to investigate." "I hope that the general will find out the origin of these people as soon as possible, arrest these people and bring them to justice, and if you need help, the old man will do his best to help, and vow to catch this group of scourges." ”

After the lark finished speaking, he stood up directly and waved at the general, General Xu stood up and helped the lark up and said: "What is this doing, since these people have killed innocents, the general will naturally arrest these people, and this is a matter that the general does not need to ask." ”

The lark said again: "Thank you, General." ”

General Xu said: "You're welcome, a few of you move to the next door and we'll have lunch first, and a few of you can stay in this mansion for two days, and take a few teenagers to have a good visit to Shaocheng, so as to reduce their suffering from losing their relatives, and let me thank you very much." ”

The lark said: "We can't shirk the general's intentions, why don't we stay for a few days and a few little dolls will be separated, and let them relax for a few days, how about a few people." The others agreed, and followed the general to the next door.

When the lark and the general were talking, Xu Mo had already met Liu Yi and the others took them to the atrium.

Liu Yi and a few people just passed by here and just took a cursory glance, and at this moment, several teenagers were fascinated by the scenery, went to see the flowers, smelled the smell, and touched the rockery.

When they came to the edge of the pond, a few people looked into the pond, the lotus leaves were gently stroked with a little breeze, the lotus flowers were in full bloom and stood on the lotus leaves, the green lotus leaves lined with the pink lotus flowers were beautiful, and the various koi fish in the pond swam in it.

Liu Yi and the others had never seen this kind of colorful fish, and they lost their minds for a while, and the group stopped here to watch.

Xu Mo saw that they were so engrossed and said, "You can count how many fish there are." ”

After hearing this, Liu Yi and the others also felt interesting, and began to count in their hearts, and Tie Zhu said: "There are about one, two, three, four... That's a lot. ”

Wu Haowei looked at the koi carp and scratched his head and said, "It's hard to count." ”

Zhenghao counted the fish, and as soon as he swam, he forgot about it and counted it again.

Liu Yi looked down at Xu Mo and said, "If a fish is one color, it is okay to count as many fish, but the color of this fish is not the same, and if there are too many, it will not be clear," After speaking, he shook his head slightly.

Xu Mo laughed when he heard Liu Yi's words: "It's normal to count the fact that this koi has a single color, a two-color or even a three-color, dazzling but also very good-looking, I'll take you to see the martial arts training ground again, watching others practice martial arts is also learning, after all, you are also going to be a person who will wander the rivers and lakes in the future." ”

A few people were reluctant to give up this scenery and looked back several times while walking, "I don't know if this koi is delicious or not, it looks pretty good." Tie Zhu muttered quietly, wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

Liu Yi listened closely, made a very speechless expression on his face, patted Tie Zhu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, don't look at this thing, it's for seeing, not eating." ”

"Isn't it all fish to eat? Tie Zhu muttered again, Liu Yi shook his head and sighed helplessly: "You guy just wants to eat." ”

Just as Xu Mo was about to take a few people to the martial arts training ground, a family member ran over in small steps, bowed to Xu Mo and bent down and said, "Young Master, the general asked all the little guests to go to the dining room to eat with the young master." ”

"Well, I know, you go first, I'll take them over. The family saluted and turned and retreated.

Xu Mo turned to Liu Yi and said, "Let's go eat first, and then I'll take you there after eating." ”

Tie Zhu was the first to say loudly: "Okay, okay, I think the koi are hungry." ”

Liu Yi said helplessly: "Your stomach is really hungry fast enough." ”

Xu Mo laughed and said, "Hahaha, let's go, the things in our house taste delicious." ”

So Xu Mo took a few people and walked to the dining room, the dining room is next to the living room, and the space in the dining room is also very large, Xu Mo took them in, and saw that General Xu was already eating with the lark and a few people, and a few people were pushing cups and changing glasses and drinking and chatting very happily.

Seeing Xu Mo coming in, the general said to Xu Mo: "Mo'er bring a few children to sit down and eat together." ”
