Chapter 72: Murong Xue
Some people's loneliness is due to the lack of relatives and friends around them, perhaps due to their own reasons, or perhaps for other reasons. And some people are lonely because there are too many relatives and friends around him, so many that he has to choose loneliness, because only by enduring loneliness alone can relatives and friends be safe.
Some people, as if they were born with a unique temperament, can always attract more and more people to come to his side and never leave him.
When Murong Qianhe saw Wuxin for the first time, he recognized Wuxin, because Wuxin left too deep an impression on him when he was in Yunshui Villa, and he also rescued him from the knife of the golden swordman, which he had always remembered. didn't expect to meet again today, in fact, what he didn't know was that Wuxin had inadvertently saved his daughter on the boat just now.
Wuxin was also very surprised, he didn't expect to see Murong Qianhe here, since the last time they said goodbye in Huashan, the two have not been in contact, Wuxin also thought that the two people who met in Pingshui might not be able to see each other again, and they didn't have to see each other again, he didn't feel that he had saved Murong Qianhe, so he should get anything in return.
What he didn't know was that the Jiangcheng he passed through at this moment was where Murong Tang's headquarters was located. Today is the day when Miss Murong Tang returns to Jiangcheng, so Murong Qianhe specially came to pick up her baby daughter in person.
Jiangcheng is a place surrounded by water on three sides, all the wharves here belong to Murong Tang, including many merchant ships, which are under the jurisdiction of Murong Tang himself, and this is a traffic artery, and hundreds of caravans pass by every day, but no one dares to make a ghost under Murong Tang's nose, because even if a fly flies in, it will not escape Murong Tang's eyes.
Escaped the eyes, and the ears, and the nose, and that was completely self-defeating. This is the reason why Murong Tang has been able to stand tall in the rivers and lakes for so many years, it is not that no one has made a calculation about this piece of fat over the years, but in the end he has left his life here forever.
"It's been a few months since the last time Huashan said goodbye, I don't know how Shaoxia is recovering from his injuries?" Murong Qianhe looked Wuxin up and down for a moment, and asked with a smile.
Last time in Yunshui Villa, the injury he suffered was so serious that almost no one thought that he would come back to life, but now seeing him standing in front of him again alive, Murong Qianhe was very surprised, but also very happy, he couldn't imagine how strong the stubborn young man standing opposite was.
Wuxin nodded, and said slowly: "Thank you seniors for your concern, it's no big deal." "At that time, in the duel of the Huashan Martial Arts Conference, Murong Qianhe was also injured, but looking at the current appearance, it is estimated that he has recovered. Although there is only one side, he feels the same way about Murong Qianhe as Aoki, and feels that the two of them are worthy of deep friendship.
"Sure enough, it's a hero out of a young man, I already know about you in the capital, it seems that Aoki is the same as me, and I owe a big favor to the young man from now on. Murong Qianhe said with a smile.
Unintentionally broke the sensational Jade Rakshasa robbery case in the capital, not only recovered countless rare treasures, but also recovered the treasures of Wudang and Shaolin. In fact, what people don't know is that he also recovered the heirloom jade seal of the current dynasty, but this news was blocked and did not spread to the outside.
"The seniors are serious. Wuxin shook his head and said, in fact, what he did was crooked, so he didn't take it to heart, and he didn't plan to ask for anything in return.
But a person like Murong Qianhe will definitely remember, as long as he feels that he owes you a favor, then as long as you are in trouble in the future, he will definitely help you at all costs, Aoki is also such a person, this is one of the reasons why he has no intention of respecting them.
"Are you the bloody knife Wuxin?" At this time, Murong Qianhe's daughter walked over, tilted her head, looked at Wuxin suspiciously, and asked.
She grew up in Murong Tang since she was a child, knows a lot of things on the rivers and lakes, and has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and has won the true inheritance of her father, and has begun to wander the rivers and lakes when she grows up, and has heard a lot of deeds about Wuxin, but now she knows that the legendary blood knife Wuxin is not so terrible, but the dress and appearance are a little strange.
"Xue'er, don't be unreasonable! Hurry up and meet your father's benefactor. Murong Qianhe glared at his daughter and said dissatisfied.
The girl pursed her lips reluctantly, hugged her fists to Wuxin and bent down and said, "I have seen the benefactor, the little woman Murong Xue is so polite." He rolled his eyes as he spoke, as if he felt that his father took the young man in front of him a little too seriously, and he had never seen his father be so polite to a person.
Unintentionally, he was a little at a loss by Murong Qianhe's title and attitude, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help Murong Xue up, but before he could stretch out his hand, Murong Xue turned his head and left, making him even more embarrassed.
Murong Qianhe shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't mind, young man, my daughter has completely spoiled me, don't take it to heart." At this time, Murong Xue had already passed through the crowd and walked towards the city.
I shook my head, smiled and said, "It's okay, she's special." He was right, Murong Xue was indeed different from other girls, with a hint of Jianghu on her body, although she was a little rude, but she could see that her nature was good, and it was the first time he saw a girl greeting people with a fist.
Murong Qianhe shook his head and said slowly, "As long as she doesn't go out and cause trouble for me, I'll be satisfied." As he spoke, he pointed to the city and continued: "Since you have arrived in Jiangcheng, let's stay in Fuzhong for a few days, it is rare to see it." ”
Wuxin thought about it, nodded and agreed, so he walked towards the city with Murong Qianhe and the gang of Murong Tang. Originally, he wanted to politely refuse, because he still had important things to do, but seeing that Murong Qianhe looked gracious and difficult, it was not easy to forcibly refuse.
After arriving at Murong Mansion, Murong Qianhe immediately asked his subordinates to arrange a guest room for resting without intention, and then ordered the back kitchen to light a fire to cook and hold a feast.
Murong Qianhe hadn't been so happy today for a long time, firstly because of the return of his daughter, and secondly because of the arrival of Wuxin's benefactor. With this good mood, I couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
Wuxin doesn't drink, except for two times when he got drunk in Crescent Town, and hasn't drunk since, because drinking is too easy to make mistakes. So he only used tea instead of wine to accompany him during the banquet, enjoying this rare relaxing time. To be honest, he wasn't sure what Gusu City was waiting for him, maybe it was good, maybe it was just empty joy.
Murong Qianhe looked at Wuxin, who frowned slightly, put away his smile, and asked slowly, "What's the matter?" ”
Wuxin shook his head slightly apologetically, and said lightly, "It's okay." With a reluctant smile on his face, no matter how you look at it, it makes people feel that he really has something in his heart.
Murong Qianhe's face straightened, and he said seriously: "Don't take it to heart if you have something, I don't want to say that I am not reluctant, but if you need my help, Murong Tang will definitely go all out." ”
Wuxin nodded, and toasted Murong Qianhe with tea instead of wine, he was very grateful in his heart, this is the reason why he respected Murong Qianhe, Murong Qianhe is the kind of friend who will choose to stand by your side without asking the reason and not being afraid of the result.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone has almost eaten. At this time, Murong Xue looked around and said suspiciously, "What about the eldest brother?" said and looked at Murong Qianhe with a puzzled expression.
Murong Qianhe glanced at Murong Xue and said angrily: "You only think of your eldest brother now? It seems that you are really used to being in the wilderness outside." He's out on an errand, and it's going to be a few days before he returns. ”
Murong Xue stuck out her tongue and didn't speak again.
After the feast, everyone saw that it was not early, so they went back to their rooms to rest. Wuxin came to the bedroom prepared for himself in Murong Mansion, and nodded with satisfaction, although it was simple, it had everything, and the slightly open window could still see the lights on the dock in the distance.
I didn't want to lie in bed for a long time, but I never felt the slightest sleep, so I had no choice but to get up again, came to the window, and looked at the dock in the distance that was still brightly lit at this time, and I thought a lot in my heart.
He didn't tell Murong Qianhe the purpose of his trip, that is, he didn't want to involve Murong Tang, and he didn't want to save Murong Qianhe.
It's best to face his own affairs, and he doesn't know what kind of danger awaits him this time, he doesn't want to involve others, even Murong Qianhe, who is already a friend. He seems to have become accustomed to carrying all the bad things by himself, and although it is tiring, he has no regrets.
Just when Wuxin was in a trance thinking about his thoughts, suddenly a short sword stabbed in the window like lightning, and stabbed at the door of Wuxin's face!
Wuxin didn't retreat, and suddenly stretched out two fingers at a faster speed than the short sword, and caught the stabbing short sword like lightning, and his eyes instantly froze to the extreme. The dagger was fast enough, sudden enough, but unintentional was faster, faster, even easier.
The figure that suddenly appeared with a short sword in his hand froze in place, looking at Wuxin in a daze, struggling to pull out the short sword that was caught by Wuxin's two fingers, but no matter how hard he tried, the short sword was like growing in Wuxin's hand, and it didn't move.
The figure struggled for a long time, stomped his feet, let go of the hand holding the short sword, and said stupidly: "I'm just trying to see if you are as powerful as the legend, since you like this sword so much, I'll give it to you." As he spoke, he casually threw the scabbard of the short sword in his other hand into the door, looking unhappy.
This figure that suddenly appeared was the daughter of the brutal and willful Murong Qianhe in a purple power suit, Murong Xue. In fact, she had been secretly lurking under the window of Wuxin's bedroom for a long time, planning to play tricks on Wuxin, who was held up to heaven by her father. But I didn't expect it to be a bit of a self-inflicted humiliation now.
At the moment when Murong Xue casually threw out the scabbard of the short sword, the two fingers holding the short sword unintentionally flicked slightly, only to see the short sword suddenly fly out like lightning, almost grazing Murong Xue's ears and flying quickly, and then incredibly inserted into the scabbard that was still in mid-air, and the residual strength did not decrease, and it was fiercely inserted into the trunk of an old tree in the courtyard.
Murong Xue felt the cold and piercing sword qi coming from her ears, and looked at the short sword that had already sunk into the trunk of the tree and only had the hilt left, and couldn't close her mouth in surprise. What kind of internal strength and eyesight is needed to do this, she can't believe her eyes.
"Don't make such jokes next time, because you are not so lucky every time, and if it were someone else, maybe you would have died more than once. Wuxin looked at Murong Xue coldly with a surprised expression, and said lightly, with a hint of majesty in his tone.
Murong Xue looked at Wuxin blankly, widened her eyes and said, "You already found me?" Although she asked so, she didn't want to believe it in her heart, because she was confident that she was lurking very well and didn't make a sound.
"A true master can smell danger in the air. Wuxin said lightly. In fact, he had already known that someone was hiding outside the window, and he probably guessed who it was, and the reason why he kept pretending not to know was to teach Murong Xue a lesson.
Although Murong Xue is special, she still has too little experience in the rivers and lakes, and her unintentional acumen is cultivated in the game of life and death, and a lurker like Murong Xue can easily find it. The reason why this is like this is because he has no intention of training this daughter who doesn't know the height of the sky for Murong Qianhe.
Murong Xue looked blankly at Wuxin across the window in front of her, as well as the confident and cold eyes, her eyes seemed to be stupid, and now, she finally knew the real horror of the bloody knife Wuxin rumored in the rivers and lakes.
Maybe she doesn't know now that the mysterious boy in front of her has left a deep imprint on her heart, and she can no longer linger, and even feel pain......
