In the study, curling green smoke came out of the purple gold incense burner.

The middle-aged man sat on the side of the desk, holding a scroll in his hand, and was reading carefully.

When the candlelight flickered, a person pushed the door in and said respectfully, "Dad, I'm here." ”

The middle-aged man nodded, stretched out his finger and pointed to the carved wooden stool in the room, motioning for him to sit down first.

Seeing this, the man who came in walked lightly to the wooden bench, lifted his robe and sat on the stool, quietly waiting for the middle-aged man to speak.

From that kind expression, it can be seen that the person who came is Huo Chunfeng, and the middle-aged man who can make him treat him so respectfully is obviously the master of Yijian Pavilion - Huo Rendi.

is not like the rumored leopard head and ringed eyes, swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, and the appearance is seven or eight points similar to Huo Chunfeng, but he is older, like a calm old pedant.

It can be seen that people's words are terrifying, and most of the rumors are biased.

Huo Rendi finished reading the last page of the book, looked up and smiled: "The wind is coming." ”

"Yes. ”

Huo Chunfeng immediately got up and said respectfully.

Huo Rendi raised his hand, pressed it down, and said, "Sit, talk between father and son, don't use these false courtesies." ”

"Yes. ”

Huo Chunfeng smiled, sat down slowly, put his hands on his lap, and waited for his father to speak.

Seeing this, Huo Rendi shook his head with a smile and said, "You, you are too polite...... Rai'er is too naughty, you two should really learn from each other. ”

"What my father taught me is that Feng'er should learn more from his second brother in the future. ”

Huo Chunfeng is still sitting upright like that.

"That's it. ”

Huo Rendi waved his hand helplessly, not wanting to talk about these clichés anymore.

The eldest son has been so polite since he was a child, although he was born in the rivers and lakes, but he did not have the slightest atmosphere of the rivers and lakes, but he was like an elegant scholar in general, fortunately, this cultivation has never fallen; the second son has been rough and heroic since he was a child, and he likes to make friends all over the world, but this temperament is too lazy, and he travels all day long to visit relatives and friends, and he is not willing to endure hardships and practice at all - the cultivation has not yet entered the stream, which makes him have a headache.

Thinking of the second son's cultivation, Huo Rendi couldn't help but think of something, his eyes were a little gloomy, and he asked in a deep voice: "How is the matter investigated?"

Although his father didn't say it explicitly, Huo Chunfeng did know what he was asking, and replied: "According to what the second brother said and the analysis of the news from the backer city, most of the people who shot should be some robbers who are not in the stream, but the cultivation of the leader is slightly higher, but it is only one line higher than the second brother, and there are probably three grades of cultivation...... It doesn't look like it's the Angry Jiao Gang. ”

There are still some words, he didn't say it, and his father can guess it, with the strength of the Angry Jiao Gang, if he wants to intercept and kill Huo Chunlei, he shouldn't just shoot these hands, but there are some signs that he seems to have encountered robbers.

Huo Rendi bowed slightly, and asked again: "Could it be done on purpose? If it was just an ordinary robber, why did he dare to kill all of them after Lei'er revealed his identity, and the person who was the leader fed poison on his knife, obviously had the intention of killing." ”

This is also a strange point. ”

Huo Chunlei nodded, and pondered: "The second brother has already revealed his identity in advance before the two sides make a move, if it is just an ordinary robber, I am afraid that he will not dare to be the enemy of my Sword Pavilion, and there is no such thing as killing people and destroying mouths." But those people still made a brazen move, not only killing all the servants who followed the second brother, but also chasing and killing the second brother all the way...... If I hadn't met Brother Xu, I'm afraid it would have been ......"

"Has the identity of that teenager been identified?"

Speaking of Xu Zhaonan, a flash of brightness flashed in Huo Rendi's eyes, the second son was intercepted and killed, what happened strangely, and the experience of encountering Xu Zhaonan's rescue was even more strange, all of this seems to be arranged, but is there really such a coincidence in this world?

Huo Rendi even thought that all this was just a play, a play to make Xu Zhaonan close to Huo Chunlei and Yijian Pavilion. But if it was just to get close to the Sword Pavilion, why bother so much, what good could it do him, and what did he want?

Huo Chunfeng naturally didn't know what his father was thinking, and replied, "I haven't found out." This person didn't know where he came from or where he was taught, but he seemed to be a person who suddenly appeared from Yao Mountain. Although he is young, his cultivation is not low, and he is accompanied by strange beasts, so he will not have a reputation in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Maybe it's an apprentice of a hidden master who went out of the mountain to experience ......"

After a pause, Huo Rendi seemed to remember something, and hesitated: "You just said, Yaoshan?"

Huo Chunfeng replied: "Exactly, the second brother fled all the way to the foot of Yao Mountain before he met this person to save him. ”

Because of his position, Huo Rendi knows some things that people in the rivers and lakes don't know. Yaoshan is the place where Baixi Feng's sword path was completed back then, and Xu Zhaonan has such a cultivation at a young age, so he has to let people think about it.

"The hidden master, the ...... of Yaoshan"

Huo Rendi pondered secretly for a moment, and suddenly remembered that his eldest son was still in his room, and ordered: "Since this person is friendly with Lei'er, you can pay a little attention to it first, and don't offend others...... The main focus is still on the Angry Jiao Gang. ”

"Yes, Feng'er knows. ”

"It's late at night, you go back and rest first. ”

"That'...... Father rested earlier, and Feng'er retired first. ”

Seeing the eldest son respectfully leading the door for him and leaving, Huo Rendi held the scroll in his hand and gently slapped it on his leg.

"Yaoshan ......"

After a long time, a smile rose into the corners of his mouth.

............

"Bang bang bang. ”

There was a knock on the door outside the door, interrupting Xu Zhaonan, who was practicing cross-legged, and then ran his true qi for a week before he stopped, and looked up at the night outside the window.

"Who?"

Xu Zhaonan asked in a loud voice.

"Brother Xu, have you fallen asleep?"

As expected, Huo Chunlei's bold voice came from outside the door, and he should have just woken up and came to find him.

"Not yet, I was still meditating and practicing just now. ”

Xu Zhaonan said as he walked to the door.

When I opened the door, I saw Huo Chunlei, who had obviously been groomed, changed his clothes, and his hair was still slightly wet, standing outside the door with some embarrassment, and hurriedly said, "Second Brother Huo is looking for me late at night, is there something wrong?"

Huo Chunlei touched his wet hair and said with emotion: "Last time, I saw Brother Xu cultivating early in the morning, and now it's a big night and I'm still cultivating, being so diligent really makes my brother embarrassed." ”

"I've been used to it for a long time, and if I stop and don't practice one day, I feel uncomfortable. ”

Xu Zhaonan smiled, thinking of what his senior sister had said, that person had already entered the first grade when he was sixteen years old, if he didn't practice hard, when would he be able to catch up with him.

Of course, for such a reason, it is naturally inconvenient to say more.

"What did Brother Xu call me just now?" Second Brother Huo?"

Huo Chunlei was stunned and asked inexplicably.

Thinking of the reason, Xu Zhaonan suddenly couldn't hide his smile, thinking that Huo Chunlei didn't know what happened after he got drunk, he grinned and explained: "After Second Brother Huo got drunk, Brother Huo came......

At that moment, after Huo Chunlei was drunk, he was told about Huo Chunfeng's arrival one by one.

After listening, Huo Chunlei suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he didn't expect that he would be so ugly after he was drunk, and he was seen by Brother Xu and Big Brother.

Pretending to be disapproving, he waved his hand and said, "Second brother, second brother, this is all a trivial matter." I said before that when my brother came to this Mojuan City, I would do my best to be a landlord, and I came to find my brother at this time, just to take you to see the night of the Huai River. ”

Xu Zhaonan asked with some uncertainty: "Second Brother Huo's kindness, I have understood it first, brother, it's just that you just woke up ...... wine."

Huo Chunlei said indifferently: "It's okay, just drink less." ”

After speaking, he squeezed his eyes ambiguously at Xu Zhaonan, but he didn't notice it.

Yes, I have to drink again.

Xu Zhaonan turned around and entered the house, touched the sleeping Xiaobai, and saw that it was sleeping deeply, so he didn't wake up, but just carried the divine sword Qingshen that never left his body behind his back, and hung Zang Feng on his waist, and followed Huo Chunlei out alone.

Huo Chunlei saw that he had two sharp swords hanging on his body, looking like he was going to fight, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, what are you doing with so many blades, with me, there is no chance for you to make a move in this Mojuan City." ”

Xu Zhaonan is still "used to it".

Seeing this, Huo Chunlei shook his head with a smile, and left him alone.

The lively street during the day, under the bright moonlight, seems to be somewhat quiet, and some rangers with swords and swords are still wandering the streets, but they also slow down their steps, try not to make noise, so as not to disturb others.

The two walked along the street all the way to the Huai River.

What appeared in front of him was the scenery that Xu Zhaonan had never seen, the rippling blue waves on the river, the ink-colored landscape was dotted with all kinds of red and willow green painting boats, the painting boats were full of lights, the vermilion ship pillars were carved and the beams were painted, and from time to time some women in light Luo clothes walked in the meantime, which attracted a burst of exclamations from the talented people who were singing poems in the painting boat.

"Second Brother Huo...... This is?"

Xu Zhaonan didn't know that Huo Chunlei would bring him to such a place, so he was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

"Hahaha. ”

Huo Chunlei knew that he had never seen this kind of scene, so he laughed, patted Xu Zhaonan's shoulder, and said proudly: "Brother Xu, my Zigui County is not only Huaiyu, this painting boat is even more unique at night, go quickly, let my brother take you to see my 'beautiful scenery of the Huai River'!"

With that, he pulled his arm without saying a word and walked towards the largest room, a painting boat called Caidie.

Seeing the two of them walk in, a young woman came out of the colorful butterfly boat, wearing a colorful Luo shirt, holding a fragrant silk handkerchief in her hand, and a snow-white chest rippled as she walked.

"Yo!"

The woman walked up to the two of them step by step, waved at Huo Chunlei, and said with a coquettish smile: "Isn't this Huo Ergongzi!

Huo Chunlei, as the second son of Yijian Pavilion, is bold and bold, and he is also a spendthrift on this occasion, which naturally makes people in the painting boat love it very much.

"Hahaha!"

Huo Chunlei let out his signature heroic laughter again, and introduced to Xu Zhaonan: "This is the bustard mother of the colorful butterfly boat, Xiangdie, who was a famous beauty in our Huaihe River valley back then!"

Then he introduced to Xu Zhaonan: "This is my brother Xu, call out all the top girls in your boat today, and drink with my brother!"

"Second son, look at what you said, Xiangdie used to be a beauty, but now she can't get into your eyes, yes or no?"

After that, he waved the fragrant silk handkerchief in his hand and gently slapped Huo Chunlei's chest, and Gege laughed.

Huo Chunlei took advantage of the situation to hold Xiangdie in his arms and said with a smile: "Blame me, blame me! Sister Xiangdie is still a beauty now, and her demeanor is even better than back then." ”

Xiangdie twisted in Huo Chunlei's arms, quietly broke away from his clutches, twisted her waist and led the way in front of her, while shouting into the boat: "Girls, you are here!"

Huo Chunlei pulled Xu Zhaonan, who was a little at a loss, and quickly followed.

Walking into the boat, the overall vermilion hall, painted with yellow paint over the columns, is illuminated by the dazzling lights everywhere, looking magnificent.

At the innermost end of the painting boat, where the light gauze is covered, there seems to be a fairy stroking the qin, and there are bursts of pleasant piano sounds.

Huo Chunlei didn't ask for another private room, but just led Xu Zhaonan to find a seat by the window and sat down, waved at Xiangdie and said, "It's still the same, go and come back quickly." ”

"When I saw the second son coming from afar, I had already ordered you to go down, but I didn't dare to let the second son wait for a long time. ”

Xiangdie didn't leave, sat next to Huo Chunlei, leaned her head on his shoulder, and said coquettishly.

After a while, a group of colorful Yan Thin Ring Fat ran over.

Xu Zhaonan glanced at it, and immediately lowered his head, and he didn't look at everyone's appearance carefully, only felt that they were wearing too few clothes.

Are they all people with profound skills? Not afraid of catching a cold!
