Chapter 56 should be entrusted with deep gratitude

With a burst of hearty laughter, an old man in his sixties came in from outside the door, with mottled silver marks on his black beard. With a rectangular face and a wide sea mouth, a pair of Danfeng eyes walked towards Ji Lao's dart head with a smile.

When Duan Kun saw him, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and hurriedly went over to give a salute. But the man, as if he had not seen him, waved his hand and sent him away.

"Oh, Brother Hou, I haven't seen you for many years, how are you doing lately?"

Ji Lao, who was already very happy just by hearing the voice, saw that his best old friend was in front of him, and immediately stood up from his seat, grabbed his hand, and exchanged warm and cold words.

At this moment, Hou Tonghai's mood is also very excited. The two hadn't seen each other in years.

During this period, Hou Tonghai also visited him several times, but he was all in vain because Ji Lao dart head was out of dart all year round.

Over time, they couldn't find the right time, and the two had to keep communicating in the form of letters.

Today coincides with such a good opportunity, and the two elderly people who are over half a hundred years old are even more out of control. At Hou Tonghai's strong request, they joined hands and came to the main seat together.

"I see it's getting late outside the window, so my brother must have eaten yet, right? When I came, I had ordered someone to prepare delicious food and wine, and you would like to have a few drinks with me in a while!"

"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. I'm not busy for the time being, but in fact, I came here this time because I wanted to ask my brother for help. ”

Ji Lao was talking and laughing, and inadvertently glanced at Lu Qian and Cui Shiyuan, which suddenly remembered that he still had a task on his side, and almost missed the big thing of the two benefactors.

"Hey, brother, that's a bad word. If we say so, won't we see the feelings between our brothers?"

"Ah, when I think about it, it's a fool's mistake. ”

"Haha, let's talk about it, what's the matter? As long as the younger brother can do it, the sword mountain and the sea of fire will not hesitate!"

Seeing that this topic was almost introduced, Ji Lao Dart stretched out his hand and pointed to Lu and Cui, who were sitting in the guest seats below, and said slowly: "These two young heroes are foolish brothers and my life-saving benefactors, and now they are in this Yuzhou City, just to capture the 'Wanli Cloud Dragon He Lantian' to eliminate harm for the people." Brother Suwen has a lot of eyes and ears for the Seven Killings, I don't know if I can help find clues, it can be regarded as a great merit?"

"This ......"

Hou Tonghai was obviously stunned when he heard the words "He Lantian" come out of Ji Lao's mouth, and then his face instantly changed back to his natural state.

"What's wrong, brother?"

Seeing that Hou Tonghai did not reply immediately, Ji Lao was also puzzled in his heart. But as an old friend for many years, I am still very confident, and it will definitely not be a problem to hand over this little thing to him.

"I didn't ...... There's nothing wrong with that. Since it is a matter entrusted by my brother, my younger brother will definitely do it with all his heart, and I will dispatch all the people of the Seven Killing Sect to inquire about the news early tomorrow morning, and report it to the two young heroes as soon as there is any movement. ”

"Well, that's very good, the old man is here to thank the two of them. ”

As he spoke, Ji Lao clenched his fists and bowed deeply to Hou Tonghai across the table.

Lu Qian and Cui Shiyuan looked at it below, after all, it was their own business, how could they let the old dart head stand in front alone. also hurriedly opened his mouth and said: "The younger generation thanks the master of the Hou Sect for his help, such great benevolence and righteousness are really the blessing of the people." ”

"Haha, the two young heroes are serious. He is not only my brother's life-saving benefactor, but also my benefactor of the Seven Killings. In this matter of catching thieves, I, Hou Tonghai, will definitely help. ”

While he was talking, a maid came in from outside, walked straight to the middle of the hall, and said respectfully: "Lord of the door, the banquet has been prepared, please take a seat as soon as possible." ”

"Well, let's go down!"

With Hou Tonghai's order, the maid took dozens of steps back, until the threshold position, and then dared to turn around and leave. From this point, it is not difficult to see how strict the rules of the Seven Killing Gate are on weekdays.

"Old brother, young heroes, please come with me!"

When it came to eating, Lu Qian and Cui Shiyuan were already grumbling with hunger when they were growing their bodies. That Pei Hu was no better than the two of them, and the saliva flowed to his mouth and wiped it several times. Looking at Ji Lao, who had never eaten a full meal along the way, he also secretly rubbed his stomach at this time.

Hou Tonghai, who has always been sharp-eyed, has long been aware of the hungry ghost posture of each of them, but because of the problem of face, he didn't see anything.

Everyone walked through the two courtyards in a row, only to feel that there was a pungent fragrance that tugged at the heartstrings. Sure enough, when I came to the third courtyard, in the middle of this open space, there was a large table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

A bright moon is in the sky, and the food is in front, so it seems that the lord of the Hou Sect has really spent a lot of thought for this reunion of old friends!

After taking the seat, Cui Shiyuan's hand speed took the lead. While eating a chicken leg, he didn't forget to praise it again and again: "This is too ...... It's delicious!"

In contrast, Pei Hu seemed much more civilized, with his hands together, opening his bow left and right, and after a while, he silently wiped out the dishes that could be obtained in front of him.

However, even if they eat vigorously, compared with the wide variety of delicacies in front of them, it is only a drop in the bucket.

After a full meal and wine, the lord of Houmen stayed for the night. When Ji Lao Dart thought that Liu Datong was still carrying the escorted goods, if he didn't live with them, he always felt uneasy, so he had to take Pei Hu and leave first.

How could this Hou Tonghai agree? Under some persuasion, Ji Lao still insisted on leaving, and the Hou Sect Lord, whose mouth was about to wear out, saw that there was no way, so he had to let him go.

When they reached the door, they high-fived the covenant, and after the dart was transported, they came back to live for a few days, and then they talked all night.

Seeing Ji Lao's dart head disappearing, Lu and Cui couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. After all, it was the first time for him and this Hou Sect Master to meet, and without the introducer Ji Lao Dart, he couldn't let go of the communication.

But who knew that this Hou Tonghai sent away his old friend, but he was surprisingly enthusiastic about them. not only arranged the room in person, but also took them to his study for a long talk of tea.

"Two young heroes, do you think you are satisfied with tonight's meal?" Hou Tonghai picked up the tea bowl, gently filtered the foam with the lid, and said casually.

"Thank you Lord Houmen for your hospitality, such a sumptuous delicacies, we have never seen it. ”

Lu Qian knew that since the host asked, if he didn't praise him, he would lose the courtesy of being a guest.

"Haha, the young man is too modest. It is rumored that the dragon is very good at kung fu, I wonder what you have to do with him?"

"The two of us have no grudge against him, but this person has really done a lot of evil and harmed the people, and as a person in the rivers and lakes, he should be brought to justice. ”

"Okay!
