Chapter Twenty-Eight: Envy, Hatred, and Parting (4)
When he got out, Zhou Chuqing first called the servant and asked Yi Liangwen's accommodation, and then led Mu Beiting and Master Tongze to hurry there.
The three of them walked through the corridor and soon came to the door of the guest room, where the candlelight was still on, and through the pane, a figure could be clearly seen reading a book with a book in hand.
Seeing this, Mu Beiting was overjoyed, and immediately walked up the steps to the door, and then said softly: "Senior Mu Beiting respectfully asks Senior Yi how well!"
There was no immediate response from inside the room, but the figure flashed to the door for a split second, and after a "squeak", the door opened from the inside.
The person who opened the door was of medium stature, wearing an old gray medicine spot cloth gown that was a little whitish, and he looked like a crane-haired childish face, but it was difficult to tell the age, but this old man was the current martial arts Taishan Beidou Yi Liangwen.
When the three of Mu Beiting saw Yi Liangwen walking out, they immediately saluted together. Yi Liangwen laughed heartily, waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite to the three of you, please come to the house." ”
The three of them entered the room and sat down by themselves, and Master Tongze took the lead in sighing: "I haven't seen you for many years, Yi Lao is still as healthy as ever, it's really gratifying!"
Yi Liangwen waved his hand and smiled: "Where, where." Thanks to the master's concern, the old man's body is quite tough..."Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Mu Beiting, and asked again: "The master and Beiting have been hermits for many years, why did they suddenly gather here today?"
But before others could answer, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped his thigh, laughing at himself: "Hey, I'm really old and confused, you two must have been summoned by the strange book "Sujing", right?"
After glancing at Master Tongze, Mu Beiting smiled bitterly: "It's not a secret, I waited for the middle of the night to disturb it, it was indeed for this matter, and at the same time, I also wanted to ask my seniors for an idea." ”
Yi Liangwen recognized his face and color, and knew that Mu Beiting would have something important to tell him next, so he said: "I want to hear it in detail." ”
Then Mu Beiting told Lin Zongbian about the abduction of his wife and children, and at the end he added the birth process of "Su Jing".
After listening to this story, Yi Liangwen couldn't help but be amazed again and again, and only said after a while: "At present, such a strange thing has never been encountered by the old man, and he can't say what he has in mind for a while..." ”
Mu Beiting nodded and said: "What the seniors said is very true, and I hope that the seniors can go to help the fist together." ”
Yi Liangwen said: "This is natural, and after a while, I will go to gather all the heroes in Ningbo City, and strive to send out a group of secret sentinels to guard around Nanhu Lake tonight, so as to respond tomorrow." When it is time to go to the appointment tomorrow, you and Chu Qing will go to contact the Japanese Kou first, and the old man and Master Tongze will hide behind the two of you in order to cope with the mutation. As for the Sutra... Alas, this has really become a hot potato, what to do with it now, the old man can't think of a way to deal with it for a while..."
Mu Beiting also sighed and said: "Alas, it is indeed a big problem, I am afraid that the news that this book is hidden in the Lin Mansion has already spread throughout the entire martial arts, and now I am afraid that this book will induce martial arts disputes, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
When Zhou Chuqing heard this, he asked urgently: "Could it be that the purpose of the person who distributed the invitations is to cause chaos in the martial arts?"
Yi Liangwen frowned and said: "I don't rule out such a possibility, but there are too many mysteries in this matter, let's think about it here, and it is not beneficial to do it behind closed doors." In the opinion of the old man, our minds should still be focused on rescuing Zong Yan's wife and children, as for the heroes who came to the mansion, the old man will also try to stabilize them first, and everything will only be discussed after Zong Yan returns. ”
Mu Beiting and the three of them were all allowed, and they all claimed to be at the moment. Yi Liangwen stood up and said, "Old decay, let's go and arrange a secret sentinel, the three of you should go back early to recuperate, there is still a fierce battle waiting for us tomorrow!"
Seeing that with Yi Liangwen in command, Mu Beiting finally breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately got up and said, "Everything depends on the dispatch of Senior Yi." ”
Master Tong Ze and Zhou Chuqing also stood up and saluted.
After saying goodbye to Yi Liangwen, the three of them dispersed. When Mu Beiting returned to the accommodation, he saw that there was still a candlelight in the house from a distance, he knew that this was his wife who specially kept the lamp for him, and then gently pushed the door into the house, only to see that his wife was sewing something under the lamp at this time, so he quietly stepped forward and asked softly: "Dai'er, what are you sewing? How long has Xun'er been asleep?"
Xun Dai'er blushed slightly, and said softly: "I've been asleep for most of the hour." I saw that your saber had no scabbard, and it was unsightly to carry it like this, so I wanted to sew one for you. ”
Mu Beiting sat down next to his wife and said with a smile: "Why bother with this effort, it's not certain whether you can use it or not." ”
Xun Dai'er stopped what she was doing and said with a smile: "It's so easy to see the light of day, and it should always be put and dressed up." ”
Mu Beiting looked at the scabbard in his wife's hand again, and finally his eyes stayed on the conspicuous little yellow flower. He smiled bitterly, and then stretched out his hands to hold his wife's face, and said with a smile: "The blade is a murder weapon, it is good to reveal a domineering and domineering atmosphere, if you dress them up beautifully, I am afraid that the power will be greatly reduced..."
When he said this, he saw that his wife's face gradually showed a look of worry, so he changed his tone and said: "Dai'er, just wait for this matter to be over, let's set off to Gusu immediately, and you will wait for my good news here tomorrow." ”
Xun Dai'er's face turned happy, and she said softly: "You have to be careful, the child and I are waiting for you to come back!"
Mu Beiting's right index finger curled slightly, gently scraped Xun Dai'er's pink nose, and said: "Don't worry, there are many masters in the house today, everyone will go to the rescue together tomorrow, and when there are many people with enough strength, it will definitely be fine." ”
Xun Dai'er was suspicious: "Isn't it just the three of you who are going? How can there be so many more people? By the way, what were you discussing in front of the mansion just now?"
Mu Beiting was worried that talking more about the details of this matter would make his wife more worried, so he said vaguely: "One more person is a little more safe, you don't have to worry." Lest his wife ask again, he hurriedly said: "I'll go to rest first, and only when I have enough spirit can I go to tomorrow's appointment." ”
Xun Dai'er saw that he didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask any more, just waited for him to sleep, and then got busy with herself.
Nothing was said all night. Just after the next day, Mu Beiting woke up, he quietly got up and dressed, and at the same time looked sideways at the clinic, but seeing that his wife and children were sleeping sweetly at this time, he tiptoed to the door, and picked up the "ink rain" on the table on the way and took it away.
"Mo Yu" was lying tightly in the scabbard at this time, Mu Beiting took it in his hand and looked at it, smiled slightly, tied it to his back with his backhand, and then gently took the door out and went straight to Yi Liangwen's room.
When he got closer to Yi Liangwen's residence, he saw from a distance that everyone who was in the mansion last night had gathered in the courtyard, and when he looked at it, all of these people were all skilled. He was overjoyed and said secretly: "With the help of these good hands, I am not afraid of thousands of troops and horses!"
At this time, a few people also saw Mu Beiting coming from afar, and they didn't wait for him to get close, so they hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, after all, this Mu Daxia in front of him has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and it can be regarded as a lucky thing to see him today.
A smile hung on the corner of Mu Beiting's mouth, and he frequently hugged his fists to everyone, and then began to look for Yi Liangwen's figure, but unfortunately he didn't see him after looking around.
At this time, in another corner of the courtyard, Zhou Chuqing was also looking for people, but what he was looking for was Mu Beiting, and after he saw Mu Beiting who was also looking around in the corner from a distance, he hurriedly greeted him and said: "Brother Mu, Senior Yi has sent someone back with a message, saying that the dark whistle has been spread, let the two of us go to negotiate with the widow first, and Master Tongze will lead the heroes to follow behind to make a response." ”
"Huh, has the original plan changed?" Mu Beiting frowned and asked, "What about Senior Yi, where is he?"
Zhou Chuqing said: "Senior Yi has taken the first step, saying that he wants to find a favorable position in order to better dispatch the dark sentinel positions in a timely manner. ”
Mu Beiting suddenly praised and said: "Senior Yi is really thoughtful, we will act according to his plan..." But when I see that widow later, I will go to negotiate with him, and you must be patient on the side. ”
Zhou Chuqing nodded and responded: "Everything is arranged by the eldest brother, and I will be cautious." ”
Mu Beiting said: "That's good." By the way, does the kitchen have dry food for everyone?"
Zhou Chuqing said: "The water and dry food have been prepared, and there will be servants to distribute them one by one later." ”
Mu Beiting nodded with satisfaction, and immediately jumped onto the roof behind him, and after looking around at everyone with his fists, he said loudly: "Everyone, I, Mu Beiting, am a stupid person, so I won't say more about thanks, but the banquet for celebration has already been set up, and when we return triumphantly, we will definitely drink three hundred cups from him!"
When everyone heard this, they were immediately stirred up, and they immediately echoed and applauded in unison.
Mu Beiting clenched his fists again, and said: "Everyone, please follow Master Tongze's arrangement, Chu Qing and I will take the first step, and we will see you in Nanhu!" After speaking, he landed on the ground, and was about to leave with Zhou Chuqing.
At this time, Master Tongze hurriedly stepped forward to stop the two of them, and said, "Wait, please bring this signal flare from Beiting, release it when it is critical, and Lao Qu will lead everyone to charge." As he spoke, he took out a bamboo bullet from under the monk's robe and handed it to Mu Beiting.
Mu Beiting took the signal flare and put it into his arms, and laughed: "The master is thoughtful, and there is Master Lao for this backup." ”
Master Tong Ze smiled and nodded: "Beiting just don't worry about going first, and the old man will lead everyone to arrive later." ”
