Fengcheng, in front of Xufu.

A carriage galloped up, and the driver braked the carriage suddenly, jumped out of the car, and then hurriedly ran into Xu's mansion, "Lord Xu, he found ...... child"

This descendant of Feng Mansion did not dare to say the words after that, his voice was loud, and everyone in the Xu Mansion was shocked out of the house.

Gongzi Xu Bin has disappeared for two days and two nights, only Xu Yuan knows that he went to Sword City before, but smuggling beasts is a secret and must be hidden from everyone, so Xu Yuan has been secretive about it, and just sent people to find the missing Xu Bin day and night.

In the carriage, there was also a companion who walked out of the carriage and held a cold pale corpse in his arms, which was Xu Bin's corpse.

Outside the door, Xu Yuan, who became a lonely man in an instant, stiffened, and then the old tears were crisscrossed, and he quickly stepped forward to hug his son, who had relied on him for 20 years, and said sadly: "It was for my father who hurt you, and it was for my father who hurt you." ”

The maids and servants up and down the Xu Mansion stayed stunned and didn't know what to do.

Thinking back to more than ten years ago, the father and son were promoted from Shangyi, who was thousands of miles away, and Xu Yuan became a parent official, but the Jiangnan people who excluded dissidents never took his father and son seriously. Later, Zeng Chen, one of the "five ghosts" of the Charm Pavilion, found Xu Yuan to do the beast business, the cow did not drink water and forced his head, and Xu Yuan, who was forced to add a little greed, had to accept his fate, Xu Yuan because of his advanced age, most of the things were handed over to his only son Xu Bin.

Now his son died inexplicably in another country, and since then, heaven and man have been separated.

After a long time, the old Xu Yuan ordered someone to handle Xu Bin's funeral, and walked into the mansion with Xu Bin's body in his arms, leaving everyone with a desolate and helpless back.

......

......

Xu Yuan, who came to his room, put the cold corpse on the bed and waited quietly.

"It was the two worshippers of the city lord of Sword City who killed Xu Bin, and there was a strange young man, and they also robbed the goods, I was seriously injured at the time, I didn't care about Xu Bin, the people who delivered the goods that night were all dead except me, I have been in retreat for the past two days, so I didn't come to see you. The day after tomorrow is the sixtieth birthday of Shan Xiongxin, the city lord of Sword City, I will go to ask for an explanation, what do you say?"

Zeng Chen, who was dressed in a new red robe, appeared beside Xu Yuan at some point.

Unlike Xu Yuan in the past, he did not salute Zeng Chen this time, "Lord Zeng's words are true?"

A murderous intent flashed in Zeng Chen's eyes, "Are you questioning me?"

Xu Yuan, who was deeply grieved by the loss of his son, looked down on life and death, "In the past two days, I will gather all the thugs in the Xu Mansion, as well as all the officials of the Fengcheng Yamen, and let Master Zeng send them when the time comes." ”

......

......

Sword City, Central Street.

Tu Yuelian had just sent away Xiong Hengye, who had joined the army, and was a little lost, so she stayed at the inn with Hei Qiu'er, who had eaten and slept well.

Luobei walked side by side with Hua Wenxiang, walking in the bustling city.

"Brother Hua, your clothes are so familiar, and you bought them in Xuanfufang?"

"It's a long story, my dress was given by the Lord of Shan City. ”

"Shan Xiongxin, Shan City Lord?"

"Yes, it's the lord of your Sword City. ”

"Do you know my stepfather?"

“......”

"Shan Xiongxin is my father-in-law, I said why is your dress so familiar, it turns out that my father-in-law gave me my clothes to you, we are about the same figure, and you are also suitable for wearing it. In this way, after a while, you go to the restaurant to return the guest room, and these days you will go to live in Shanfu, and in two days you will attend your father-in-law's birthday banquet. ”

"I really fell in love with Brother Luo, the Lord of Shan City also invited me to live in Shan Mansion before, and then I participated in the birthday banquet, but I was afraid of disturbing me and refused the ceremony, today Brother Luo invited again, if I don't appreciate it, it means that I don't know how to raise the flowers. ”

Luo Bei smiled: "Brother Hua is really a man of temperament. ”

The two stopped and walked until the evening, and halfway Luo Bei went to the refugee area in the southeast, and informed the group of children that they would not come to "teach swords" in the past few days, and let them practice diligently, and check them one by one when the time came.

He and Hua Wenxiang also went to a weapon store with no money, Luo Bei said that only people who know how will come here to buy things, although things are expensive, but they are all from the hands of a unique master, you get what you pay for, when you break your soul, you will go to him to customize the best long sword.

In the evening, Hua Wenxiang took Tu Yuelian and Hei Qiu'er to Shan Mansion, Shan Xiongxin was warmly entertained, and Luo Bei was busy taking care of the two and one cat.

In the Sword City, Luo Bei has no close friends, and he is nodding friends with those gentlemen in the city, and the only best way to pass the time is to tell the children and practice swords.

Hua Wenxiang, a person who is straightforward and fast-talking and does not fiddle with scheming, has the most appetite for Luo Bei, and those gentlemen in the city make friends with themselves, just to get closer to the family to please their father-in-law.

Shan Xiongxin, who was in the right position, had a mellow voice, "Bei'er, I've been taking Xiaohua and Miss Tu to go around these days." ”

Hei Qiu'er glanced at Shan Xiongxin, who hurriedly added, "There is also our little Hei Qiu'er." ”

Shan Xiongxin and Yao Hao of the Soul Ancestral Hall have teamed up to solve many cases of selling powerful beasts, unlike those powerful beasts that were abused in the past and had a shadow in their hearts, Black Qiu'er, a black cat and a powerful beast, is lively and not afraid of people, this is what the beast should be.

In fact, this is the ancestral training of 10,000 years, but most people still disobey the yang and yin, and they are insincere, and even do not hesitate to cross the thunder pool, and go to the beast forest to hunt young beasts before risking death, in exchange for glory and wealth.

Shan Xiongxin decided that after the birthday banquet was over, he would also seal off all the underground black markets in Sword City at all costs.

Looking at the appearance, Shan Xiongxin, who was only a year old, asked curiously: "Xiaohua, how did you and Heiqiu'er meet?"

He felt that Hua Wenxiang should not have been bought with a lot of money, and Tu Yuelian was also a little curious about how the two met.

Hua Wenxiang expected this to happen before he came out of the forest, and said with his face as usual: "It was picked up from a shrub in a mountain by the elders of my family when they went out to go out. ”

Tu Yuelian felt a little envious and jealous in her heart, she had gone up the mountain countless times, how could she not pick up such a talking little fat cat.

Shan Xiongxin smiled: "You two are really fateful. ”

Heiqiu, who knew the intention of Hua Wenxiang, pretended not to hear it, and sat on the chair as if nothing happened.

Luo Bei, who didn't dare to drink in front of Shan Xiongxin, forgot about the drunken gaffe last time and asked, "How did Brother Hua and Miss Yuelian meet?"

Shan Xiongxin coughed lightly, "Why are you talking so impertinently, this kid." ”

Tu Yuelian said with a smile: "Xiaohua has been to our town and met there. ”

Hua Wenxiang was a little surprised by Tu Yuelian's abnormal behavior this time, and smiled awkwardly, expressing her agreement.

Speechless for a while, Shan Xiongxin broke the silence and said: "Bei'er, these days, you go to help Chu Kui pre-organize a birthday banquet, this birthday banquet invites more people, I'm afraid he won't be busy." ”

Luo Bei promised: "Can the father-in-law reveal the list of people who will be invited to the banquet, I will see which Nanzhou big names there are, and I will be able to ask for advice at that time." ”

Shan Xiongxin was reluctant to reveal the secret of heaven, "You will know when the time comes." ”

Hua Wenxiang took the initiative to say: "What can I help, just ask, anyway, we have nothing to do these days." ”

Luo Bei smiled: "Just wait for Brother Hua's words, and after a while, we will go together to prepare the ingredients for the birthday banquet." ”

Hearing this, the bored black ball habitually jumped on Tu Yuelian's head, "Then let's go now." ”

Before they left, Shan Xiongxin handed Luo Bei a thousand taels of silver tickets.

Luo Bei was secretly happy that he could secretly save a sum of money again.

He knew that this was a sum of money that his father-in-law had indirectly given him to save money to buy a sword, and everyone in the Shan Mansion had known about it for a long time.
