"The stepfather is not that old. ”

Zhao An was still a little uneasy, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by the old man.

"Let's go, go home. ”

Zhao An nodded, Yao Yuxian had already wanted to go home, and couldn't wait to get up from the ground and get on the horse directly.

The old man returned to the Liang Palace, not on horseback, but in a carriage. Zhao An was still riding his white horse, and Yao Yuxian was following on the other side of the carriage.

"How's this contest?"

Li Cheng lifted the curtain and looked at Zhao An, who was riding a horse on the side, and asked.

Zhao An thought for a while, "Gu Kaizhi has been famous for a long time, and I was able to survive this time completely because he cherished his talents, and luck accounted for a large component." ”

King Liang doesn't care what he pleases, since Zhao An said so, it must be very dangerous. But the old man is not ignorant, his children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and they should let go.

The young eagle will eventually fly.

"Don't risk it next time. ”

Zhao An nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, father-in-law." ”

Yao Yuxian just calmly watched the conversation between the two, neither interrupting nor looking at Zhao An worriedly.

Four righteous sons, the eldest Meng Gong, the second Chang Yuchun, the third Yao Yuxian, and the fourth Zhao An.

Meng Gong was an orphan rescued by King Liang on the battlefield in the early years, when Meng Gong's relatives died on the battlefield, Li Cheng, who was not the king of Liang, didn't know why, and saved Meng Gong with kindness. After that, Meng Gong followed Li Cheng to fight in the south and the north, and finally came to Liangzhou, where he served as the commander of the mount army, and was in the west of Liangzhou all the year round, conquering the countries of the Western Regions.

Chang Yuchun was Li Cheng's personal guard back then, and he fought on the battlefield with Li Cheng for many years, and saved Li Cheng in crisis many times, and was then accepted by Li Cheng as his son.

Zhao An is the other among the three, according to a certain record in Shanshuilang, this righteous son and Li Cheng, the king of Liang, seem to have some kind of unknown kinship, but for this kind of thing, neither of them came forward to say anything.

The cavalry escorted a few people away, and on the plain in the distance, Gu Kaizhi, dressed in sackcloth, suddenly appeared.

Gu Kaizhi put his hands behind him, looked at the back of the cavalry in the distance, and didn't say anything.

Behind Gu Kaizhi, there was a young man with his hands at his sides, looking respectful.

For the master in front of him, the young man only had awe, and he had no other thoughts at all.

Gu Kaizhi didn't know that the young man was in awe of himself, he had only accepted five apprentices in his life, and the young man behind him was one of them.

This kind of thinking of the young man is inevitable, but if he does not correct it, then he will always live in his shadow for the rest of his life, and there will be no progress in the martial arts

Such a person, no matter how talented he is, is useless.

After standing for a long time, Gu Kaizhi slowly spoke, "What's the matter?"

The young man's forehead was covered with sweat, but his master's aura was too strong, and his strength was far above him.

"Master, there have been a lot of Ming troops in the Iron Bucket Pass in recent days, I don't know what the purpose is?"

Gu Kaizhi sneered and stood barefoot on the plain, "It's okay, I went to Chang'an City some time ago, but I was afraid that the old man would be angry, so I went directly to Chang'an City." ”

"You can rest assured that if you go back, the old man will go back to the Liang Wang's Mansion and then go back to the iron bucket gate. ”

After that, he ignored the young man, walked directly barefoot on the plain, slowly walked through the mountains and rivers, and walked towards the Liang Wangfu in Liangzhou.

The young man looked at the back of Gu Kaizhi leaving here, let out a long sigh, and reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, the young man was relieved. After many years by the master's side, this awe has become heavier and heavier since the first day, and it shows no signs of abating.

Calming his mind, the young man glanced at his master, then turned to leave.

At this time, the sun is long gone, and the moon hangs high in the sky.

The moon and stars are scarce, and under the big willow tree in Qingshan Village, Wang Yi sits cross-legged.

After a week of operation, all the internal forces poured into the limbs and hundreds of remains, and a breath of turbid air came from

Wang Yi's mouth and nose came out and dissipated between heaven and earth.

When he opened his eyes, Wang Yi found that it was already night, and the sun had only reached the edge of the sky when he was practicing, and now the moon had come out.

Standing up, Wang Yi stumbled and almost fell, and hurriedly held on to the big willow tree on the side to stabilize his figure. I've been sitting for a long time, and my legs and feet are a little sore.

Gently knocked on his legs a few times, sat down for a while, and then returned to the old man's courtyard.

When approaching the courtyard, Wang Yi found that in front of the courtyard gate, I don't know when there was a very luxurious carriage. Near the carriage, there was a middle-aged man with a long knife in his arms, standing there.

Wang Yi saw the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man also saw Wang Yi.

But the first to come out of the sheath was the long knife in the arms of the middle-aged man.

The unsheath without warning shocked Wang Yi and the middle-aged man, and Wang Yi subconsciously put his hand on the long sword at his waist.

The battle is on the verge of breaking out!

The middle-aged man smiled apologetically, raised his hand and pressed the long knife in his arms, and said to Wang Yi: "Xiaoyou is frightened. ”

Seeing the middle-aged man's words, Wang Yi also put down his right hand and shook his head, "It's okay, your sword intent is a little interesting." ”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, and continued to stand beside the carriage without speaking.

It's just a meeting friend, so there's no need to say anything.

Wang Yi ignored the middle-aged man, pushed open the gate of the courtyard directly, smelling the familiar medicinal fragrance, Wang Yi found that Lu Li in the courtyard was accompanying a woman.

The woman is a little heroic, not the slightest bit of weakness that belongs to the woman, but gives people a sense of pride.

"Godmother, I'm fine, I heard that you haven't slept in the past few days, go back and rest early today." ”

Lu Li took the woman's arm, looking a little tired.

The corners of Lu Ning's eyes were full of sadness and love. It's sad because my son doesn't know which gangster he was killed, and his love is the righteous daughter in front of him, and the woman who is about to become his daughter-in-law.

One died of her husband and the other of her sons, all of whom were miserable.

It's just a pity that no one knows that behind the two of them, it is the culprit who caused all this.

Wang Yi stood there a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to speak, but it didn't seem right to stand here, he couldn't just chat with the two of them all the time, so he had to stay here all the time.

"Ahem. ”

Wang Yi coughed lightly twice, indicating that he was back and was standing behind you.

Sure enough, hearing Wang Yi's cough, the two women who were talking turned around.

"Who is this?"

Where did Lu Ning know who Wang Yi was, and when he saw a stranger appear in the courtyard, he was naturally a little puzzled. But after the doubt, I was also a little nervous, after all, the person outside the door didn't stop this person.

"This is a guest brought back by the grandfather of the village to stay here for a few days. ”

Lu Li was the first to speak and explained to Wang Yi.

Wang Yi, who was still thinking about how to say the reason why he was standing here, was stunned for a moment, but when he heard Lu Li's words, he instantly reacted and nodded.

"I don't know who this is?"

"Since you are the guest of the village chief, then there is nothing to do, in Xia Luning, you can call me Mrs. Lu. ”

Wang Yi was shocked, it turned out to be the current head of the Northern League, Lu Ning.

"Mrs. Lu, excuse me, you can talk. ”

After that, Wang Yi left directly.

Lu Ning nodded, looking at Wang Yi's departing back, he was a sensible junior, but he didn't know when the village chief would have such a guest.

Shaking his head, throwing distracting thoughts out of his mind, pulling Lu Li's little hand, and gently wiping away the tears from the corners of Lu Li's eyes, Lu Ning was a little distressed.

"Silly girl, don't torture yourself like this, Feng'er will leave when he leaves, and those of us who are alive will continue to live. ”

Lu Li knew that her stepmother's heart was not much less sad than her own, and being able to persuade herself was enough to show that she was in a very high place in her heart.

“

Godmother, you go back tonight and light the spices in my purse to help you sleep. ”

As he spoke, he came to the gate.

Lu Ning walked out of the door, and Lu Li stood at the door, not far away.

"Child, go back, Feng'er's coffin will be buried in the back mountain in a few days, and you will go there then." ”

Lu Li nodded, in the past few days when Wang Yi was in a coma, Lu Li kept vigil in the mourning hall set up by the Northern League for the Young League, and the whole person was yellow and thin, and he was about to die.

Today, Lu Ning couldn't stand it, and during the day, he asked his subordinates to forcibly take Lu Li away from the mourning hall, otherwise if it went on like this, Lu Li would have to go down to accompany Feng'er.

Looking at Lu Li, who was standing at the door and watching him, Lu Ning sighed slightly and turned to leave.

Standing at the gate, Lu Ning persuaded Lu Li, who had been reluctant to leave for a long time, to go back and came to the side of the carriage.

The middle-aged man opened his eyes and looked at Lu Ning, who came here from the gate, "Why don't you stay a little longer?"

Lu Ning sighed slightly, "This kid has too deep a relationship with Feng'er, she has been in the mourning hall for so many days, so I will let her sleep more today." ”

The middle-aged man nodded, as if he had thought of something, and said, "Did you see the kid who just entered?"

Lu Ning nodded, Wang Yi's appearance appeared in his mind, and he said suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "This kid's kendo is not bad, and his background should be unusual, but he doesn't know how to follow his feet." ”

Lu Ning lifted the curtain and walked into the carriage, looking at the moonlight outside through the window, a little gloomy.

"The guests invited by the village chief, don't think about it. ”

The middle-aged man heard the two words of the village chief and smiled bitterly, that old man with crops can be said to be the Dinghai Divine Needle of the Northern League, since he is his guest, then it makes sense.

"Where are we going back?"

Lu Ning sat in the carriage and thought for a while, "Go back to the mourning hall, Feng'er has been afraid of loneliness since he was a child, and I want to accompany him more." ”

The middle-aged man put the long knife in his arms on top of the carriage and drove the carriage out of Qingshan Village.

"The fight between Zhao An and Gu Kaizhi in our West Mountain before will spread all over the rivers and lakes in a few days. ”

Lu Ning recalled Zhao An's performance in front of everyone in his Northern Alliance that day, although he couldn't talk about disgust, but he didn't have much good feelings.

After all, the white-clothed general was known for his ruthlessness in the Ming and Northern Qi dynasties.

"In your opinion, who wins and who loses between Zhao An and Gu Kaizhi?"

The middle-aged man waved the whip in his hand and drove the carriage quickly, "Gu Kaizhi has been famous for a long time, and he was famous in the Northern Qi Dynasty as early as fifty years ago, but we don't know it here. As for Zhao An, he commanded the Liangzhou cavalry, and the number of shots was only a handful, and it was not known to outsiders. ”

"Therefore, I think that no matter what Zhao An has, he is far from being Gu Kaizhi's opponent now. ”

Lu Ning sat in the carriage and frowned slightly when he heard the middle-aged man's words, "Gu Kaizhi is so strong?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "Miss, you must know that the current martial arts realm is set by Gu Kaizhi, and such a character is not invincible in the world, it is almost the same." ”

In this way, Zhao An can survive in the hands of Gu Kaizhi, and his realm is also good. ”

The middle-aged man calculated in his heart, and said with some uncertainty: "Although I don't know the specific realm of Zhao An, there must be a product, but whether it has reached the Spring and Autumn Realm or not is an unknown number." ”

Lu Ning sneered, "Spring and Autumn, when half of the ten people today may be in this realm, he Zhao An is also worthy." ”

The middle-aged man sighed slightly, looked at the woman in the carriage, and was a little helpless, this woman who had wanted to become one of the ten people in the world since she was a child, since her wish was shattered, she became a little extreme, but she couldn't say anything.

I'm just a groom.

As soon as he thought of this, he was a little helpless, and in this way, the horsewhip in the middle-aged man's hand waved faster.
