Volume 2, A Leaf Knows Autumn Chapter 6, Spring Thunder
Ye Linfeng's Frost Moon Knife had been wrapped in a black cloth before, and today he finally saw his true face. This sword is really Western, different from Chinese swords. The blade is generally wide at the top and bottom, and it is extremely thick and dark, but the blade is silvery-white, and it looks extremely sharp. The blade of the knife is like a rectangular piece of black iron that has been cut off a corner, which is very strange.
"Ye Gongzi!" Yao Mingyue saw him appear in front of her, and for a while excitement, guilt, self-blame, and fear all came to her heart, and she hugged him in her arms and cried: "I'm sorry, I blamed you." ”
Ye Linfeng's heart froze, his whole body stiffened, and it took a while to react, he opened his arms, hugged her thin waist, hugged her in the middle, and said softly: "It's okay, I don't blame you." ”
Yao Mingyue glanced up and saw the wound on his shoulder, bleeding profusely. It turned out that he had just slashed the spirit rhino to make Yan Zheng and tear the wound again with too much force. Yao Mingyue looked at this wound, it was as painful as if it was pierced on her body, and she felt even more guilty and aggrieved in her heart, and threw herself into his arms, crying: "Aren't you already gone, why are you back again?"
Ye Linfeng had indeed left just now. He was misunderstood by Yao Mingyue, and at that time, he couldn't argue, and was stabbed by her sword, and he was disheartened, and Shanshan left. But as soon as he walked not far away, he suddenly remembered that Yao Mingyue was alone here, afraid that she would be in danger, and he couldn't care about anything for a while, so he turned around and came back.
As soon as I came outside the house, I heard the conversation between Yao Mingyue and Yan Zheng. He hid outside the door and listened. But after hearing Yan Zheng say that he was the culprit who pretended to be the "three-character order" to kill people, Ye Linfeng was furious, and when he was about to rush in to kill him, he caught a glimpse of the wound on his shoulder. I knew that since this Yan Zheng could become the spiritual envoy of the seventh hall under the Xuanming Sect, his martial arts were naturally good. Now that he is injured, he is also Yao Mingyue. Rash action will not defeat him.
Just as he was thinking about it, Yao Mingyue in the house had already started a fight with Yan Zheng. He knew that Yao Mingyue was not Yan Zheng's opponent, and when he saw that Yao Mingyue was injured by Yan Zheng and wanted to kill her with his sword, Ye Linfeng suddenly rushed in and slashed out with a knife when Yan Zheng was defenseless, which killed him and saved Yao Mingyue's life.
In normal times, Ye Linfeng would have rushed in early to fight a duel with Yan Zheng, but he was seriously injured and couldn't help himself. If it weren't for a sneak attack, I am afraid that I would not be able to kill this ruthless demon cult demon.
Ye Linfeng smiled slightly and said, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go out first." ”
Both of them have injuries on their bodies, and if someone else comes here at this moment, I am afraid that their lives will be confessed here. Yao Mingyue carried him on her shoulder, and Ye Linfeng also held her shoulder with her hand. The two of them supported each other and limped towards the door. If someone were looking at the two of them from behind, it would be very funny. But the two are dependent on each other at the moment, not only do they not feel funny, but they still have a trace of sweetness in their hearts.
After experiencing life and death, the two of them after the contradiction and misunderstanding, their hearts seem to be tighter. Walking under the courtyard wall, Yao Mingyue looked at the high courtyard and said, "I can't climb such a high courtyard wall." ”
Ye Linfeng smiled slightly: "Then how did you get in? Could it be that you are drilling a dog hole?"
"you!" Yao Mingyue took a sip of him, and the little girl's shy posture was fully revealed: "People say that if they support you, they won't be able to climb over this courtyard wall." ”
"It doesn't hurt. I'll take you out. Ye Linfeng bent down and hugged Yao Mingyue horizontally in his hand, Yao Mingyue let out a coquettish cry, her face was flushed, and she fell into his arms and didn't dare to look at him. Ye Linfeng let out a long roar, jumped up, and floated over the high wall.
Yao Mingyue looked up at him. I saw that his handsome face was fully contoured under the moonlight, adding a touch of coldness and amazement, and there was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, as if he could melt the ice so warmly. Yao Mingyue couldn't help but look stupid, I just wish that time would freeze here and lie in his arms forever.
Ye Linfeng stepped on the vast moonlight, and a few ups and downs disappeared into the endless night.
Ye Linfeng took her to a barren mountain, but it was the cave where she lived a few days ago. Ye Linfeng put her on the ground, wrapped her in the bear skin that was broken into two pieces, and when she was about to turn around, she suddenly felt dizzy, her eyes were dark, and she fainted.
Yao Mingyue stretched out his hand to probe, only to feel that his forehead was hot, as if the wound was infected and he had a high fever. Anxious, he took out the golden medicine, untied his shirt and fell to the wound. After a while, the blood stopped, Yao Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to go out to find some herbs to come back to relieve his fever.
As soon as he got up, he was grabbed by Ye Linfeng, and shouted in a daze: "Mingyue, don't leave me, I'm so cold, don't leave me." ”
Yao Mingyue probed his body temperature, only to feel that his body was as cold as a piece of ice, and hurriedly wrapped him in a bear skin, picked up a handful of dry firewood, and made a fire to roast beside him. But Ye Linfeng was still shivering coldly. Yao Mingyue gritted her teeth, lifted the bear skin, exposed his chest, and untied the belt around her waist with her backhand, took off her middle coat and lay on him, clinging to his body, and actually wanted to use her body to warm him.
Gradually, Ye Linfeng's body gradually became warmer, and he was not trembling, calmed down, and fell asleep. Yao Mingyue touched his thin face, full of love. Ye Linfeng felt a burst of softness, woke up slightly, looked at Yao Mingyue in his hazy eyes, and grabbed her hand. Yao Mingyue snorted, and then smiled slightly: "Ye Gongzi, you are awake." ”
Ye Linfeng didn't speak, hugged her thin waist, turned over and pressed her under him. Yao Mingyue's heart beat faster in fright, and her face was red like bloodshot: "Ye Gongzi, don't do this!"
Ye Linfeng smiled slightly, leaned over to her lips and kissed her. Yao Mingyue slowly closed her eyes.
......
In the blink of an eye, winter has gone to spring, and it has come to the time of sting.
"In the February Festival, everything comes from the earthquake, and the earthquake is thunder, so it is called stunning. ”
The weather is getting warmer, and there is gradually a roar of spring thunder. The ice melts, the insects are unearthed, the young willows sprout, the geese return to the north, the spring snow ends, the elm trees bloom, and the earth is full of life.
A young man in white, riding a white horse, walked on the road. The willows on both sides are sprouting, a few swallows are playing among the branches, a few women are squatting by the flowing river not far away, washing their clothes, and a few children are running and frolicking around them, looking particularly warm.
This place is Yangzhou, Jiangsu, which has been a paradise on earth since ancient times. Although the great uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty caused the world to be devastated, this is the territory of Zhang Shicheng, the king of Wu, in terms of geographical belonging. However, Zhang Shicheng didn't seem to want this kind of fairyland on earth to be implicated in the war, so he made a three-chapter agreement with the righteous army of the world, and he must not march and use force here. Therefore, although Yangzhou is in the midst of chaos in the world, it is like a paradise.
The young man on the back of the white horse is Zhao Yanfa, the leader of the Henan Righteous Army Martial Alliance. After three months of cold winter, he finally defeated all the Yuan forces in Henan. He also became a big man on a par with Liu Futong, Qin Shuyuan, Zhang Shicheng, Xu Shouhui and other rebels. But he did not claim the title of king, and still regarded himself as the leader of the Martial Alliance. But in the eyes of others, he seems to be the king of Henan, and some people even began to call him "King Yu" in private.
At this moment, the corners of Zhao Yanfa's mouth have grown a beard, and there is a little less childishness and more maturity between his eyebrows. Every move, majestic, gestures, and heroism are also very in line with his identity and style as "King Yu".
He rode his horse all the way south, from the countryside through the town, to the city of Yangzhou. Therefore, the place is connected with the Qinhuai River, and since ancient times, it is a place where green buildings are all over and fireworks are everywhere. At night, the city of Yangzhou is more lively than during the day.
Because of the beginning of spring, the weather is getting warmer, and the number of pedestrians on the street is gradually increasing. The lanterns are dazzling, colorful, and the shouts and shouts along the street come and go. "It's the beginning of March again, and the warm breeze is drunk on the West Lake", in the pen of countless poets and writers in the Tang Dynasty, the scenery of Yangzhou in March is the most beautiful. Although it is still February, the scenery here is still comparable to a fairyland on earth.
Zhao Yanfa drove his horse slowly, walked on the crowded Dengshi Street, looked at the bustling streets, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: If the whole world can be as peaceful and clean as Yangzhou City, then I, the leader of the Wumeng Alliance, can also retire to the rivers and lakes.
As he was in the middle of the line, he suddenly heard a shout from the end of the long street. He followed the prestige, only to see a young man running wildly in the crowd, his face full of horror, and behind him there were four strong men chasing him with knives, scolding in their mouths: "Bastard, stop me, how did you betray the gang leader!"
The bustling long street was in chaos. The young man cut through the crowd and occasionally threw innocent pedestrians backwards. The speed of the four strong men behind him was also extremely fast, and they were always no more than three feet away from the young man.
In the blink of an eye, the young man had already come to Zhao Yanfa. Seeing him riding on a white horse, he had a plan, jumped up, struck him with a palm, and shouted, "Let me go down!"
Zhao Yanfa didn't expect that this man was in a hurry, and he wanted to take the white horse under his crotch and escape. He is the leader of the Martial Alliance, and he has been taught martial arts by Guo Bodhisattva since he was a child, and he has obtained one-third of Dongfang Bai's "Yuqing Taixuan Gong". Seeing that the man stood up and slapped him, he didn't hurry and greeted him with a backhand.
Hearing a bang, the man felt a powerful and majestic force surge, pushing him backwards and slamming him to the ground. In an instant, his arm was numb, and he lost consciousness. Just as he was amazed by Zhao Yan's strong palm power, the four strong men behind him had already chased here. Seeing the young man fall to the ground, the four of them each laughed fiercely, raised their long knives one after another, and slashed down in unison.
"Stop!" Zhao Yanfa exclaimed in surprise and jumped down. Protecting in front of the young man, he slapped his palms forward, and the thick palm wind hit his face, and he was agitated in white clothes, and the hunting sounded. The four strong men froze, their long knives broke in unison, and they took a few steps back before stopping.
The young man saw Zhao Yan come to the rescue, and hurriedly got up and hid behind him. When the four strong men saw that he was amazing, they didn't dare to move forward. The bearded man stepped forward, bowed his hand, and said, "What is the identity of this young man? Why did you stop us? Could it be that he is an accomplice of this traitor?"
Zhao Yanfa returned the salute, shook his head and said: "I don't know this eldest brother in Xia, but I passed by here, and I saw the four of them killing people on this long street where people come and go, and I felt that something was wrong, so I stopped it." ”
When the bearded man heard this, he exclaimed, "Since you don't know him, then step aside." We're in the Gang of Thirty-Six to clean up the portal. He shouted at the young man behind Zhao Yanfa: "Chen Youliang, if it's a man, stand up for me, don't hide behind this young man!"
The young man named Chen Youliang was still hiding behind Zhao Yanfa and did not move. After Zhao Yanfa heard about the "36th Gang", he was overjoyed and said: "How many people are from the 36th Gang? But I don't know what mistake this little brother has made? He even let a few people disregard the reputation of the 36th Gang, and kill him on this long street?"
The bearded man didn't answer directly, but asked Chen Youliang behind him: "Chen Youliang, you despicable villain, the helper treats you like a mountain, how can you betray him and tell that Zhang Shicheng the secrets of our gang!"
Zhao Yanfa frowned, turned to look at Chen Youliang, and asked, "Brother Chen, what they said is true?"
Chen Youliang shook his head and shouted: "Brother Wu, I was also framed, there is something unspeakable in this, you must believe me!"
Zhao Yanfa saw that his face was pious, and he did not suspect that there was a fake. Turning to the four of them: "A few seniors, I see that Brother Chen has a sincere face, not like a lie." It seems that there is something unspeakable in this, and it is impossible to say. I think it's better to let him tell me, and I'll argue with a few of them."
Your bearded man was very excited, and shouted: "You don't know this young man, this Chen Youliang is treacherous and cunning, and he finally deceives people on weekdays, so don't be deceived by his outside." Young man, watch out for your horse!"
Zhao Yanfa turned around suddenly, but saw that Chen Youliang had already grabbed the reins of the white horse, and sprinkled a handful of white ash at him in his hand. Zhao Yanfa never thought that this Chen Youliang would suddenly attack, so he used Xuangong and spewed out a stream of air from his mouth, blocking the white ash from his body.
By the time the ashes had cleared, Chen Youliang had already mounted his white horse, turned his horse's head and ran across the long street. Zhao Yanfa couldn't believe that he was almost killed by him when he rescued him, he was furious in his heart, and chased after him in a row, but his white horse was a famous horse for thousands of miles, his feet were extremely fast, and he was on the long street, people came and went, he chased a few steps and was blocked by the crowd, seeing that Chen Youliang disappeared at the end of the long street on horseback, but to no avail.
The four strong men surrounded them with a loud noise. The bearded man shouted, "You let go of that traitor, how can we explain to the gang leader when we go back?"
Zhao Yanfa said: "Today's incident is the fault of the next, I didn't see that Chen Youliang was so cunning. I implore the four eldest brothers to go back and bring a message to your gang leader, saying that Henan Zhao Yan will come to the door to apologize one day. ”
The bearded man was startled, looked Zhao Yanfa up and down, and asked, "Are you the king of Henan, Zhao Yanfa, the leader of the Wumeng?"
Zhao Yanfa shook his head and smiled: "Below is Zhao Yanfa, the leader of the Martial Alliance, but not King Yu, Brother Wu laughed." ”
The bearded man shouted: "Since it is the leader of the Zhao League, we are inconvenient to ask, so let's go back and tell the helper that tomorrow we will be in the Fengyue Mansion and wait for the leader of the Zhao League!"
The five of them hugged each other's fists and retreated. Zhao Yanfa could still hear a person next to him ask the bearded man: "Brother Wu, is this Martial Alliance Alliance leader really so powerful?"
"What do you know!" the bearded man smacked him and said, "This Zhao Yanfa is the righteous son of the former Maitreya Buddha Zhao Chou, and when he rebelled, we didn't join the 36 gangs." The gang leader is certainly eloquent, but he is only his junior. ”
"He's so powerful, but he looks about the same age as the gang leader!"
"Since ancient times, heroes have been young people, didn't you see the hand he showed just now, I'm afraid the gang leader is not his opponent!"
Zhao Yanfa shook his head and smiled, turned around and wanted to lead his white horse, but he felt empty. He forgot that the white horse had been taken away by Chen Youliang, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. I thought that this time I came to Yangzhou, I really lost my wife and lost my soldiers!
He found a secluded inn to stay, hastily had dinner, and then in the room, pushed open the window, and looked at Yangzhou City at night. There are people boating on the river, the light boat pushes the river water, and a layer of water waves is raised, and under the reflection of the lights, the waves are sparkling, and it is very beautiful.
There were a few brightly dressed boys sitting on the boat, drinking wine inside, holding beauties in their arms, and playing with pot throwers. Zhao Yanfa closed the window and went to bed, but he didn't fall asleep until late at night.
Early the next morning, Zhao Yanfa had already gotten up, and after a brief breakfast, he asked the guy about the location of the "Fengyue Mansion". The guy was quite familiar with all parts of Yangzhou City, so he pointed him in the direction. Zhao Yanfa silently wrote it down, said a word of bothering and left.
He walked in the direction the guy said. Turn around three alleys, go around a long street, first turn left into another long street, and after bypassing an alley, walk to another long street, and the end of this street is where Fengyue Mansion is located.
Zhao Yanfa looked at it with great eyes, and saw that the Fengyue Mansion was majestic and magnificent, and there were seventy-seven and forty-nine iron nails nailed to the vermilion gate. A pair of tall stone lions at the door are very majestic. is not inferior to his martial arts in the slightest. Zhao Yanfa secretly lined up in his heart: "It seems that the leader of the 36th Gang is also an extremely particular person. ”
Zhao Yanfa strode over, and saw two young men guarding the door, clenching his fists, and was about to speak, but he heard the young man on the left ask, "But is it the leader of the Zhao League of Henan Wumeng?"
Zhao Yanfa hugged his fists and saluted, saying, "It's Zhao Yanfa down there." ”
The two teenagers hurriedly pushed open the door, and the young man shouted loudly towards the door: "Welcome to the master of the Zhao League of the Martial Alliance!"
Zhao Yanfa was puzzled in his heart, he didn't know the leader of the 36 gangs. Moreover, because of his obstruction last night, he let go of the traitor Chen Youliang in the gang, and he came to apologize for his sins. But looking at the battle, it seemed that he was ready to greet him. This made Zhao Yanfa a little confused for a while.
Zhao Yanfa hugged his fists at the two and walked in. As soon as you enter the gate, you are greeted by a huge courtyard. There is a road paved with marble. At this moment, there are two rows of people standing on both sides of the road. Follow the path from the main gate to the entrance of the main hall.
When everyone saw him come in, they all bowed their hands and shouted in unison: "Welcome to the master of the Zhao League of the Martial Alliance!"
Zhao Yanfa was stunned for a moment, but saw that the people in the two rows stretched out their left hand on the left, and stretched out their right hand on the right, pointing to the door of the main hall, and made a gesture of invitation. Zhao Yanfa was flattered, hurriedly bent down and saluted everyone in return, and walked quickly towards the door of the main hall.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the main hall, he saw four people walking out of it to greet Zhao Yanfa. The first person looked like he was in his forties, tall, and polite, and bowed to Zhao Yanfa, and said, "The 36 Gangs of Hezong greet the leader of the Zhao League of the Martial Alliance." The other three also saluted with him.
Zhao Yanfa saw that this person's popularity was extraordinary, his gestures were full of pride, and he had a faint leadership demeanor, so he asked: "Is the predecessor the leader of the 36th Gang? Disrespectful and disrespectful!"
Who knew that the man suddenly shook his head and smiled: "The leader of the Zhao League said that he was laughing, he was just a hall master of the Thirty-six Gangs. The surname is Yu. ”
Zhao Yanfa couldn't help but be surprised, such a calm and capable person turned out to be just a hall master here, and the leader of the 36 Gangs must be the dragon and phoenix among the people, and the genius of the sky.
Zhao Yanfa smiled and said, "Hall Master Yu, forgive me for being clumsy, I don't know the true face of your gang leader." May I ask the hall master, where is your gang master? I came down to him to apologize. ”
The hall master smiled: "My gang master already knew that the Zhao League Master was visiting today, but I never thought that the Zhao League Master would come so early. The gang leader was practicing martial arts, his clothes were soaked, and he felt that he was a little disrespectful when he saw that the leader of the Zhao League was a little disrespectful, so he ordered the four of us to meet the leader of the Zhao League here, and he went back to the room to change into clean clothes. Please don't mind the Lord of the Zhao League. ”
"How dare you. How can Zhao be so valued by your gang leader, and I am grateful!" Zhao Yanfa said polite words, but he couldn't guess the thoughts of this gang leader of the 36th Gang who he didn't know before.
The hall master sat down with Zhao Yanfa, and then someone served tea. The tea leaves are clear and green, and the aroma is pleasant, but it is a good Longjing. Zhao Yanfa took a sip, only felt sweet and refreshing, refreshing, and couldn't help but admire: Only in this place south of the Yangtze River can you taste such an authentic Longjing.
When he put down the teacup, he heard a hearty laugh coming from outside the door, and one of them asked, "Is he here, Lord Zhao?" Zhao Yanfa knew that it was the leader of the 36th Gang, and hurriedly got up. But I saw a young man walking in outside the house, dressed in black, with a delicate appearance, long hair tied up, and a jasper hairpin, dressed like a weak scholar.
When the hall master and a few people saw him come in, they bowed their hands and shouted: "Help the master Shao'an!"
The young man didn't pay attention to it, but walked straight towards Zhao Yanfa, with a look of excitement and joy on his face, and said, "Are you the leader of the Zhao Alliance?"
Zhao Yanfa never thought that the leader of the 36th Gang, which was very prosperous, was actually a young man of his age, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart, and returned the salute with his fists: "Under Zhao Yanfa, I have seen the Ye gang leader!"
Ye Linfeng hurriedly held him up and said, "Master Zhao, you are older than me, it stands to reason that you are my senior, such a big gift, I can't afford it!"
It turned out that this person was Ye Linfeng, the owner of the "three-character order" that made everyone in the south of the Yangtze River panic. Before he met Yao Mingyue, he had persuaded ten sects to join him in the uprising. Then, during the three months of this cold winter, he followed the previous practice, using the "three-character order" as a guide, entering the sect at night, saying that those who were reasonable, and beating those who were unreasonable, and successively subdued twenty-six sects to join him.
He led twenty-six sect leaders and gang leaders to Yangzhou, joined the previous ten sects, and occupied the Yangzhou Prefecture overnight, which became his stronghold, that is, this Fengyue Mansion. Because there were 36 gangs that rebelled against him, and because his method was the way of the Zongheng family, he called his forces "the 36 Gangs of Hezhong". First, it is to highlight his identity as a Zongheng family, and secondly, it is also to dissociate himself from the Red Turban Army of the White Lotus Sect, indicating that the 36th Gang of Hezong is a Jianghu organization. It is the same as Qin Shuyuan's Jianghu people and Zhao Yanfa's Wumeng.
He was afraid that there would be a gap in the hearts of the thirty-six heads or helpers, so he set up thirty-six hall masters under the position of the helpers, which were held by the thirty-six heads or helpers in the past. The four hall masters who greeted Zhao Yanfa just now were personally selected by Ye Linfeng, namely Yu Sihai, the hall master of Yujiang Hall, Zhan Fei, the hall master of Wuji Hall, Ma Tianshao, the hall master of Lima Hall, and Jiang Heng, the hall master of Shenhe Hall.
The two of them exchanged polite words and sat down separately. Ye Linfeng didn't go to sit on the chair at the front door, but sat next to Zhao Yanfa. The servants also brought a cup of tea to Ye Linfeng, and the four hall masters waited aside, respectfully.
Ye Linfeng took a sip of tea and asked, "What is Brother Zhao doing in Yangzhou this time?"
Zhao Yanfa said: "Because Zhao has practiced a set of swordsmanship today, but there is no good sword in his hand. Later, after hearing the brother of the helper say that south of the Qinhuai River, there was a sword-casting master, surnamed Xu Mingyizhi, who was Mrs. Xu, a famous sword-casting master in the Warring States Period, and wanted to go and ask for a good sword. happened to pass by the treasure land of Guibang, and unexpectedly encountered the brothers of Guigang chasing and killing traitors. Zhao was stupid and didn't know, so he stopped it, but he didn't want to spoil the big thing of your gang, so he came to apologize to the Ye gang leader today!"
As he spoke, he got up and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Ye Linfeng: "Brother Zhao is tormenting the little brother like this." I've already heard from Hall Master Wu about this. The person who escaped was a disciple of Hall Master Wu, named Chen Youliang. This man is scheming and good at strategy. When I conquered Yangzhou that day, I was thanks to his advice on the side. When I saw that he was smart, I promoted him to be my mentor to help the Chinese army. The night before, Hall Master Wu came to me and said that the secrets of our gang were leaked by this person to Zhang Shicheng, the king of Wu. That Zhang Shicheng was about to raise troops to attack our gang. I asked Brother Wu to arrest him and ask him for clarification. Who knew that this guy was a thief and ran away. This person is quite scheming, knows how to read words and feelings, and is good at acting on the spot, how many people have been deceived by him. Brother Zhao, you don't have to blame yourself. ”
Ye Linfeng smiled slightly, and said: "I also heard that Brother Zhao was also deceived by that Chen Youliang, and lost a fast horse, when Brother Zhao leaves, you can go to my backyard stable to choose a good horse, as long as it is what Brother Zhao likes, I will never be stingy!"
Zhao Yanfa saw that Ye Linfeng did not blame him, but also gave away a good horse, and was flattered, and said: "Ye Gang Master is so well aware of righteousness, it really makes Zhao feel ashamed!"
Ye Linfeng smiled: "Brother Zhao, you don't have to be polite. You are two years older than me in grade, and you are also my predecessor in the rivers and lakes. If I call you big brother, you will call me Brother Ye!"
Zhao Yanfa is also a free and easy person, and immediately hugged his fists and called Brother Ye. But I wondered: I didn't tell him how old I was, how did he know that I was two years older than him?
Ye Linfeng said again: "Brother Zhao is looking for the sword-forging master Xu Yizhi to ask for a sword this time? I have also heard of Xu Yizhi's name." He forged countless swords in his life, and eight out of ten famous swords on the rivers and lakes came from him. The knights of the rivers and lakes are proud to get the sword he forged. But I heard that this Xu Yizhi has a strange temper, if he looks at a person who is pleasing to the eye, the sword can be given away for free, if it is a person who does not like the eye, even if he exchanges the country, he can't get half a piece of scrap iron from his hand. ”
Zhao Yanfa nodded and said, "I've also heard about this matter, so this trip can be regarded as trying my luck." If Senior Xu sees me pleasing to the eye and gives me a sword, I will be satisfied, if he looks at me unpleasantly and doesn't want to give it to me, I won't entangle with him, and I'll leave immediately. ”
Ye Linfeng shouted: "Brother Zhao is worthy of being a free and easy person. With your identity as the leader of the Martial Alliance, I think that Xu Yizhi will definitely give you ten mouths and eight swords, and you will definitely return with a full load!"
"Then the foolish brother is here to borrow Brother Ye's auspicious words!"
In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and Ye Linfeng had to leave Zhao Yanfa for dinner. Zhao Yanfa still shirked at the beginning, but he couldn't stand Ye Linfeng's enthusiasm to stay, so he was respectful and obedient. Ye Linfeng invited a master from Yangzhou Zuixian Building and made a table of good dishes, which was full of Yangzhou City characteristics. The wine is also eighteen years old cellar daughter red. During the banquet, Ye Linfeng kept asking him about the Wu League, and he seemed to be very concerned about his Wu League. Zhao Yanfa thought that he wanted to learn from the experience of managing the Wumeng to manage the 36th Gang, so he told him.
After eating, Zhao Yanfa wanted to leave. Ye Linfeng had to drag him to the backyard stable to choose a horse. Zhao Yanfa was unwilling, so Ye Linfeng asked Yu Sihai to bring a white horse, called Feixue, which is a good horse for thousands of miles, traveling thousands of miles a day, like flying snow, so it is named.
Zhao Yanfa naturally refused to ask for it, but Ye Linfeng was bent on sending it, which was not like a fake politeness. After thinking about it for a long time, he gave a piece of jade on his body to Ye Linfeng, saying that he was exchanging jade for a horse, and if Ye Linfeng didn't agree, he didn't want this flying snow.
Ye Linfeng had no choice but to accept Peiyu. Zhao Yanfa rode on his horse and left, and Ye Linfeng sent him several streets in a row before going back. couldn't help but make Zhao Yanfa sigh: What is wrong with this Ye gang leader, why is he so polite to me?
Of course, he had no way of knowing what was going on.
......
