"Oh, Zheng Maotong looking for me?" Ji Daozheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did he say?"

Zhou Xing replied: "Steward Zheng only said that he was looking for you in an urgent matter, and refused to say what the specific matter was. ”

The corners of Ji Daozheng's mouth curled slightly, and he ordered: "In this case, let him come in, I will wait for him here." ”

Zhou Xing said yes and strode in the direction of the gate of Wuyuan.

After a while, a flustered Steward Zheng appeared in Ji Daozheng's sight.

After Steward Zheng saw Ji Daozheng's figure, his feet, which were already a little tired, suddenly gained a little more strength and strode towards Ji Daozheng.

By the time Steward Zheng ran under the laurel tree, he had already gasped for breath, and said intermittently: "Third master... Third master, the little one has something urgent to tell you. ”

Ji Daozheng frowned slightly, and said, "You can catch your breath first, don't suffocate yourself." ”

Steward Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief, first wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and then hissed: "Third master, the head of the family and the second master have gone......"

Before Steward Zheng finished speaking, Ji Daozheng had already grabbed his placket and asked sharply: "Zheng Maotong, what are you talking about? You dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing, aren't you afraid of death?"

In the face of Ji Daozheng's fierce drink, Steward Zheng squeezed out a sad expression and said quickly: "How dare the little one deceive the third master, the head of the family and the second master really went."

Just now, the second master broke into Furong Xuan with a foreigner, and fought with Mr. Ma and the head of the family, and the final result was that the head of the family, the second master, and the outsider were all dead. ”

"What? What the hell is going on?" Ji Daozheng was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Tell me clearly, what is the reason for their fight? What is the situation of Mr. Ma now?"

Steward Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Mr. Ma was injured a little, and now he is directing his subordinates to arrange the mourning hall of the head of the family at home, I found an opportunity to run out, and I want to pass the news to the third master first. ”

Ji Daozheng narrowed his eyes and asked indifferently, "Then do you know why they are fighting?"

Steward Zheng's eyes rolled a few times, then he patted his head and said loudly: "It should be related to the marriage of the eldest lady." ”

"Marriage, but tomorrow's competition to recruit a son-in-law?" Ji Daozheng hurriedly asked.

Steward Zheng shook his head and said, "It's not this marriage, it's the proposal of the second master before, saying that he wants to marry the eldest lady to the Xiao family in Shengzhou and be the concubine of that Xiao Gongzi." ”

"Shengzhou?Xiao family?" Ji Daozheng muttered a few words softly, and then thought of the huge family, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.

Steward Zheng, who had been staring at Ji Daozheng, saw that the third master's face was not good, and he couldn't help but ask softly: "Third master, do you know about the Xiao family?"

Ji Daozheng asked an inconsequential question and said, "Recently, a son surnamed Xiao came to visit?"

Steward Zheng shook his head and said, "I haven't met it." ”

Ji Daozheng sighed, and said in a complicated tone: "That's it, you go back to the house first, if there is new news, you notify me as soon as possible, and I won't treat you badly in the future." ”

After Steward Zheng was assured, he hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said: "The little one will definitely do his best to do things for the third master, and he will never let the third master down." ”

When Ji Daozheng's expression was a little impatient, the slightly chubby Steward Zheng reluctantly left the outer courtyard of Ji Jiawuyuan.

After Steward Zheng left, Ji Daozheng called Zhou Xing and instructed: "Zhou Xing, I'll go out, you stay here for a good time, if the young man surnamed Meng comes, you can take him to the inner courtyard without delay." If he has other needs, you will also meet them, and do not slack off. ”

Zhou Xing asked with a puzzled face: "Third master, that kid surnamed Meng made a bet with the eldest lady, why do you want us to fulfill our promise? Besides, now that the head of the family and the second master are gone, you are the new head of the family, why keep the old?"

Ji Daozheng narrowed his long eyes and looked at Zhou Xing coldly.

Zhou Xing shuddered involuntarily, and hurriedly said: "The little one knows his mistakes, the little one will definitely receive that Meng Gongzi in person, please rest assured." ”

Ji Daozheng sneered and reprimanded: "It's been a long time? I don't know how to measure it? If you dare to disobey the yang and the yin, don't blame me for not telling someone about the old feelings." ”

After finishing speaking, Ji Daozheng strode towards the gate of Wuyuan.

Zhou Xing bared his teeth under the laurel tree and muttered: "Damn, I'm scared to death, the third master hasn't lost his temper for a long time, why is he so angry today? Could it be that the kid surnamed Meng has a lot of trouble? Forget it, I don't want to do so much, just do what I should do." ”

Zhou Xingnian chattered for a while, slowly paced back to the gate of Wuyuan, and guarded it with all his heart.

......

After Meng Ran and Geng Huyuan left the Tongfu Inn, they walked in the direction of Jijia Wuyuan under the guidance of passers-by.

The two chatted while walking, and soon talked about the Jijia Wuyuan that they were about to enter.

Meng Ran patted his forehead lightly, and said with great annoyance: "Uncle Geng, have you figured out what that swordsman senior said?"

Geng Huyuan shook his head and said, "I don't know, I have only heard of the reputation of the Ji family in Tongli Ancient Town before, and as for the matter of Wuyuan, it is the first time I have heard of it."

As for whether you can enter the real Jijia Wuyuan, it's up to you, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much. ”

Meng Ran smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that after I enter Baoshan, I will return empty-handed, it will be a pity." ”

Geng Huyuan patted Meng Ran's shoulder and said with relief: "This hasn't gone in yet, you don't have too much pressure, compared to the Dao Sect, this Jijia's Wuyuan is just a corner of the avenue, it is fate to be able to learn, and don't be annoyed if you can't learn."

Didn't the green-shirted swordsman say that you must abide by your heart and not be blinded by external objects. ”

Meng Ran sighed for a while, and complained: "I'm about to enter the Wuyuan, but I don't even know what I want to pay attention to, it's really uncomfortable."

Uncle Geng, think about it, what hides the secret of the exercise may be a stone tablet, it may be some patterns, and it may be a treasure box hidden somewhere, how can I be good?"

Geng Huyuan looked at Meng Ran, who had lost his normal heart, and said, "Meng Ran, do you know what your biggest problem is at this moment?"

Meng Ran looked at Geng Huyuan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Uncle Geng, what's wrong with me?"

Geng Huyuan shook his head and said: "You have lost the most important normal heart, there are too many pros and cons in your heart, which has affected your normal judgment and thinking, if you can't adjust your mentality, then I advise you to go back the same way." ”

Meng Ran took a deep breath, rubbed his cheeks vigorously, and said, "Uncle Geng is right, I care too much about whether I can find the cheats, and I have lost the normal heart I should have. ”

Geng Huyuan said in a harmonious voice: "Relax, don't let external objects sway your heart." ”

Looking at Meng Ran, who began to take a deep breath, Geng Huyuan continued: "While there is still some way to go, I will tell you my own conjectures, as for whether you can find it in the end, it depends on your fortune." ”

Geng Huyuan said slowly: "This morning, I watched all the competition between you and the eldest lady of the Ji family. It seems that what Zhu's uncle and nephew said is right, the ancestors of the Ji family do have some connections with the Taoist Sect, and the exercises of the Ji family should be a class of Dao Sword Runes, which were born from the Taoist Fu Gong faction, and combined with the sword recipe to form a new sword style and attack methods.

The cultivation of the eldest lady of the Ji family is low, if she is replaced by a master of the realm of a grandmaster, with just one sword, she can reveal the mountains and rivers, communicate the aura of heaven and earth with her own true qi, and defeat the enemy with the help of the general trend of heaven and earth. ”

Meng Ran said thoughtfully: "It seems that there are indeed good things in Jijia Wuyuan, and I am beginning to look forward to it." ”

Geng Huyuan smiled and continued: "Since the preaching of the Sanqing Sage, there are words, graphics, and oral transmission methods in the world to transmit the cultivation method, so the Ji family's family tradition will only be recorded in the previous two methods, so there are not so many things you need to pay attention to.

After you enter the Jijia Wu Garden, you only need to find the real Wu Garden, and then look for patterns and words in it. ”

"But how can we find the real Ji Jia Wuyuan?" Meng Ran asked.

Geng Huyuan knocked Meng Ran's forehead and reprimanded, "Didn't that green-shirted swordsman say it, he has already given you a hint." ”

"The method is on the door?" Meng Ran scratched his sideburns and muttered in a low voice: "The method is on the door? Which door? What door? There are so many doors in this world, where can I find it!"

Geng Huyuan tapped Meng Ran's forehead again and asked, "Do you know where we're going?"

Meng Ran replied as a matter of course: "Ji Jia Wuyuan." ”

"Oh... I know..."Meng Ran shouted happily: "I know, the method is on the door of Jijia Wuyuan, I'm so smart......"

Before Meng Ran could finish shouting, he was splashed with a basin of cold water by Geng Huyuan, "Are you very smart? You can't even think of such a simple thing, and you still want to find the Ji family's family heirloom? I'm really worried that you will return empty-handed." ”

Meng Ran smiled and said, "I will be attentive and will not waste this opportunity in vain." ”

Geng Huyuan said earnestly: "As long as you calm down, you will definitely be able to find something, or that sentence, you must abide by your original heart and don't be affected by external objects." ”

Meng Ran hummed heavily.

After that, the two said something inconsequential.

After walking for half a cup of tea, the two of them had already arrived at the door of Jijia Wuyuan.

Meng Ran looked at the large and dilapidated mansion in front of him, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "It is worthy of being a century-old family, it is really very ancient, even if you don't realize anything, it is enough to just enjoy the scenery in the park." ”

Geng Huyuan smiled lightly and looked at Meng Ran with appreciation.

As the two were talking, Zhou Xing, who was guarding the gate of Wuyuan, had already walked out quickly.

"Dare to ask, but Meng Gongzi?"

Meng Ran looked at Zhou Xing and asked with interest: "This brother is invited, why do you conclude that I am Meng Ran?"

After listening to Meng Ran's words, Zhou Xing clasped his fists and saluted: "Sure enough, it is Meng Gongzi, it seems that the little one did not guess wrong." As for why I guessed that you were Meng Gongzi, it was because of your amazing bearing. ”

Hearing this not light or heavy sycophant, Meng Ran smiled lightly and asked, "Where is your master?" Meng wanted to meet him in person. ”

Zhou Xing said with an embarrassed face: "My master is Ji Daozheng, the third master of the Ji family, he just went out with something, and before leaving, he told me to entertain Meng Gongzi, and not to slack off." ”

When Meng Ran heard Ji Daozheng's comprehensive arrangement, he couldn't help but feel very comfortable, so he was even more polite, and said, "Then there will be work." ”
