Shen Yong entered the main hall first, but when he arrived at the gate of the hall, he couldn't help standing there, thinking: "If I want to go in like this, I won't be scolded by my father, so it's best to follow my mother." ”

The rest of the people saw Shen Yong go to the door first, and then followed in, and when they arrived at the top of the main hall, Tao Lang and the others were lined up on both sides. Zhao Kuangji finally entered the door, only to see a person sitting in the hall, with a yellow robe with a crown and a mighty look, it was Meng Chang, the current emperor of Shu State, and the emperor was known as Emperor Guangzheng. In 934 AD, after the Tang Dynasty Mingzong died of illness, Meng Zhixiang cut the Shuzhong, in Chengdu called the emperor, the country name is Shu, the history is called Hou Shu, half a year later, Meng Zhixiang died of illness, his son Meng Chang succeeded to the throne, so far only seven years.

There is a person sitting under Meng Chang, it seems that it should be Shen Yong's father Shen Baoshan, the huge wealth in Shu really deserves his reputation, and his eyes are radiant, which makes people look awe-inspiring.

Zhao Kuangji knelt down on his knees and said, "The rebel general Zhao Kuangji has seen Your Majesty." ”

Meng Chang said: "General Zhao doesn't need to be polite, please get up quickly." ”

Zhao Kuangji thanked him and got up.

Meng Chang said again: "I heard that General Zhao is willing to enter our country, but the Great Jin army is strong and strong, and my Shu Kingdom is only a corner of the southwest, how dare I compete with the Great Jin, and I heard that the general followed Emperor Tianfu in his early years, why did he leave him now, I am afraid there is another inside story." ”

Shen Yong heard his words and refused, and was about to speak, but was drunk by Shen Baoshan. Zhao Kuangji hurriedly bowed down and bowed again: "Your Majesty Mingjian, although I have followed Shi Jingjiao for many years, but he ceded the land and asked for help, recognized the Khitan little emperor as his father, and my generation is the son and daughter of the Han family, how can I endure such a traitorous act!"

Meng Chang got up to greet him, helped Zhao Kuangji up, and said with a smile: "The general's words are exactly what I want, but when there is chaos today, I am afraid that the general will surrender by fraud, so I have this try, and I hope the general will not be strange." ”

Zhao Kuangji hurriedly bowed again, but was stopped by Meng Chang, he couldn't kneel, so he had to bow down and salute: "The rebel will not dare." ”

Meng Chang patted Zhao Kuangji on the shoulder and said with a smile: "In the future, you and I will be a family, what kind of rebel general, it seems that the general is a few years older than me, if you don't dislike it, how about I call you Brother Zhao?"

Shen Yong saw that Zhao Kuangji had won the emperor's trust, and he was very happy, knowing that this imperial brother was easy-going, so he said to Zhao Kuangji: "General Zhao is not grateful. ”

Zhao Kuangji hurriedly bowed to the ground, and thanked him: "Thanks to Your Majesty's refusal to give up, I entered Sichuan this time, and I carried the 'Mountain Residence Map' of the former Chaoyin Prince with me, and I want to dedicate this picture to Your Majesty." ”

Meng Chang was stunned and said, "Could it be Li Jiancheng's 'Mountain Residence Map'?"

Zhao Kuangji said: "Exactly." ”

Meng Chang was overjoyed and said, "Is this really the case?"

Zhao Kuangji took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Meng Chang, saying: "It is rumored that there is a treasure hidden in this picture, but no one has cracked it for many years, and I fled this time because of this picture and almost lost my life at the hands of Sang Weihan." ”

Meng Chang hurriedly took out the picture in the cloth bag, and was suddenly stunned: "Why is there only half of it?"

Shen Yong hurriedly said: "This matter is a long story, Brother Huang still let me tell you." Then he told the reasons one by one.

Meng Chang nodded and said, "I see, Brother Zhao, don't worry, I will arrange for someone to find Ling Zun." ”

Zhao Kuangji was about to thank him, when he suddenly heard a "gurgle" sound on the roof, followed by a few "gurgles" on the adjacent house.

Everyone in the temple was amazed!

But when he heard a whoosh, a figure rushed up to the roof, it was Tao Lang, and he could only hear him shouting: "Who is it?"

A voice that is neither female nor male, yin and yang, said: "It is said that Shen Baoshan, who is very rich in Shuzhong, has a lot of money, so I came to take a look." ”

Everyone came to the courtyard before and after, looking at the condition of the roof, Shen Yongxin said: "Although my family is not as heavily guarded as the palace, it is also as skilled as a cloud, and Uncle Tao, Second Uncle Yu and Third Uncle Bu are all strong in martial arts, this person can sneak into the mansion so easily, it is really powerful." ”

I only heard Tao Lang shout again: "Bastard! If you have the heart to visit my master, and sincerely hand over the worship post during the day, you can naturally enter through the main gate, you thief acting at night must be plotting against you! Listen to my persuasion, and retreat quickly!"

At that time, the moonlight came out of the clouds, just sprinkled on the person's face, Shen Yong looked at his roe deer rat eyes, his face was almost terrifying, Yu Haoran only glanced at it, and recognized this person, it was the "Xuanwu Seven Nights" Void Sun Rat. He only came to avenge the Danger Moon Swallow and the Chambering Fire Pig as a Void Sun Rat, and immediately jumped up and came to the roof.

Yu Haoran said: "I know that you are here to avenge the incident on the Bashui River that day, this matter has nothing to do with my eldest brother, and if you have anything, you will come at me." ”

The Void Sun Rat laughed and shouted: "The old five and the old seven are above the water, the enemy is no different from the waste, how can I come to you for the sake of two wastes, and the old five and the seventh are not dead, how can I talk about revenge." ”

Yu Haoran was shocked, the two of them were not dead, and asked, "Then you must have come here for the 'mountain residence map'?"

Saying the three words "Mountain Residence Map", Meng Chang subconsciously touched into his arms, but he didn't know that he was gone! Lost his voice and shouted: "My picture!" Immediately looked around, but a black shadow swept by his side, and went to the west wall, his body was fast, and none of the people in the courtyard could see who the person was, and then another voice came: "Fourth brother, after you come to break off, I will withdraw first." The voice grew farther and farther away, and by the time it said the last "it's," it was almost inaudible.

Tao Lang said "oops": "Oh no, I fell for their plan to attack the west." "Seeing that the person who stole the picture has no clue where to go, he has to restrain the Void Sun Rat first, and then make plans.

The Void Sun Rat scolded secretly in his heart: "The sixth thief, after he said that he would help me break it, he left me alone." I saw that I was blocked in the middle by Tao Lang and Yu Haoran one after the other, and it was not easy to get out, so I had to fight.

Yu Haoran saw him standing there, motionless, lest he run away first, and immediately waved his palm at him. Seeing that this palm was in a hurry, the virtual sun rat immediately waved his hand to deal with it, and the two palms touched, only to hear the sound of "bang", and they were both shocked by the internal force of the other party. The Void Sun Rat was secretly frightened in his heart, but said with a smile on his mouth: "There are many people here today, and I really can't defeat you, but you come one by one, but you are not my opponent." ”

Yu Haoran smiled: "What a radical method, do you think we will be fooled?"

"Second brother, come and save me!" the Void Sun Rat looked at the northwest and shouted.

Several people looked at the northwest together, it was dark night, where was there anyone!

Tao Lang reacted very quickly, as soon as he turned around, sure enough, the Void Sun Rat had taken the road away, he hurriedly chased after him, the Void Sun Rat was scheming, but the kung fu under his feet was average, and he was caught up by Tao Lang within three miles. Seeing that Tao Langdao was out of his body, the Void Sun Rat shouted: "Second brother, save me." ”

Tao Lang only used his old skills again, and no matter what he said, he slashed with a knife, but he knew that the knife was in the air, but he was blocked back, Tao Lang only felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, so much strength!

This surprised Tao Lang, and under one blow, he only relied on brute force and not relied on internal force to shake himself away, who else could there be except the Proud Taurus! When Tao Lang was roaming the rivers and lakes in the past, he also had a lot of contacts with the Proud Taurus Bai Fu, who knew that after he practiced the Thirty-six Way Yaksha Stick Method, his temperament changed greatly, and he became a demon who killed people without blinking. He took a few steps back, laughed, and said, "It turns out that it is really Brother Bai who has arrived." ”

Bai Fu has a wide body, wrapped in green clothes, his eyes are like mirrors, his eyebrows are like red neon, and he is holding a pig iron rod in his hand, and he stepped out from behind the Void Sun Mouse, and said with a smile: "Brother Tao, I haven't seen you for many years, I heard that now I am with a big family as a nursing home, it's a pity, it's a pity." Tao Lang saw that he was indeed Bai Fu, and his heart was suddenly quite jealous, it was indeed more difficult to catch the Void Sun Rat at this moment, and immediately smiled: "The younger brother and the two sworn brothers are just not seeking progress, how can it be compared to Brother Bai falling into the martial arts of the thieves." Bai Fu snorted and said: "The famous 'Yangtze River Wave Knife' didn't come to be such a boring person, you and I met with old people, and we didn't talk about the old feelings, but we were sneering there, what is the reason?" Tao Lang smiled: "Don't dare to laugh, the little brother is just a well-known hero, but now he has fallen to the point of being ridiculed by people in the martial arts." Bai Fu took a step forward and said angrily: "Brother Tao, what do you mean by this?"

"My eldest brother said this, which means that you are a martial arts scum!"

Bai Fu turned his head violently, and met Bu Ziming swinging a knife to slash, suddenly Bai Fu's face was red, but it was gone, the pig iron rod in his hand was cocked, only to hear the sound of "dang", and then the incoming Bu Ziming was shocked out of ten steps away, Bu Ziming did not expect that his hard blow was so easily blocked back by Bai Fu, and even more in his chest. Tao Lang watched the battle from a distance, and when he saw Bai Fu's face showing red light, he couldn't help but shiver in his heart, thinking: "It seems that Bai Fu has really practiced the Yaksha stick method, it is rumored that this stick method is mainly based on internal cultivation, and the cultivator needs to abandon the seven emotions and six desires before he can get started. He shouted at the moment: "Third brother, you and I are not opponents." Come back quickly. ”

Bai Fu saw that they had the intention of stopping, and he was worried that if Yu Haoran arrived later, with the strength of the three of them, he was not an opponent, so he immediately arched his hand and said: "Brother Tao, take your leave." With that, he turned around and walked away with the Void Sun Rat.

Bu Ziming was puzzled: "Big brother, you just let him go? Then how can we explain to the master? What's more, the second brother will come from time to time, and when the time comes, the three of my brothers will not be able to fight him!"

Tao Lang watched Bai Fu's back slowly disappear from sight, sighed, and said: "Forget it, his stick technique has been completed, even if the second child comes, he may not be able to defeat him, "Mountain Residence Map" is only half a sheet, even if they get it, it is useless, let's go back and do it again." ”

Back in the house, Meng Chang had already returned to the palace with Zhao Kuangji and his party because there was something important to deal with in the palace, only the Shen family was still waiting in the hall, Tao Lang had just arrived in the atrium, and Shen Yong hurriedly went out to greet him: "Uncle Tao, have you brought the things back?"

Tao Lang entered the door, bowed to Shen Baoshan, and said, "Blame me for Tao someone's incompetence, the things were not recovered, and I hope the master will punish him." Shen Baoshan saw him make such a big salute, and quickly got up to help him. It is said that back then, Tao Lang, Yu Haoran, and Bu Ziming were on the Yangtze River, and they defeated the twelve disciples of Baili Taohuawu, who were famous for a while, but they were young and vigorous and inevitably made enemies, and the three of them were chased and killed by the enemy, and when they had no way out, they were taken in by Shen Baoshan, and they have been together for 20 years.

It was late at night when I returned to the room, this time I returned to Shu from Luoyang, it is not an exaggeration to say that I fled all the way, and I was tired of running around for days.

Shen Yong didn't know how long he had been asleep, it seemed that Wei Yueyan, the room fire pig and Sang Weihan were staggered in front of him, and the three of them were still lingering in their ears with the wind, why was this wind so real?

As soon as he walked to the front yard, Shen Yong only felt a flash of green light, flashed his eyes, and looked fixedly, it turned out to be a man making a sword, only to see that his right wrist shook sharply, and three swords were slashed out one after another, which was really light as a fly and as fast as lightning. The big knife in Bu Ziming's hand, which had crossed hands with him, was also deployed, and a knife was cut out and pointed directly at the man's left shoulder, so that the sword man did not wait for the knife to come, and the long sword in his hand stood up and slashed towards Bu Ziming's eyebrows. Bu Ziming saw that he was coming too fast, but he was afraid that he would be stabbed to death before the knife arrived, so he hurriedly put away his knife to block the grid, only to listen to the sword strike, buzzing endlessly, the man only attacked but not defended, only to see every stab, all ruthless. The two are equally skilled, and they are both competing with all their might. Shen Yong was looking at the rise, and suddenly, the man returned the sword into the sheath, bowed to Bu Ziming and said, "Third Uncle Bu, concede, concede." ”

Shen Baowu, who was watching the battle from the side, looked at Tao Lang beside him and smiled slightly, and said, "How?"

Tao Lang nodded and said: "Ma Xian's nephew, it is not a loss to be famous, this set of golden armor swordsmanship of your faction has made the master have a bit of divine essence." ”

Shen Yong originally thought that it was the "Xuanwu Seven Nights" who came to make trouble, but now seeing that this man was talking happily with his father and Uncle Tao, it seemed that he was not an enemy of the enemy. It's just that such a wonderful competition, ending so hastily, Shen Yong felt a little disappointed in his heart, and was about to step back to the room, but he heard someone behind him: "Cao'er, I didn't expect you to come so early." ”

When Shen Yong looked back, it was his mother who greeted the man. Shen Yongxin said: "Mother calls him Cao'er? Could this person be Ma Xixu, who is married to his sister?"

"Yong'er, what are you doing hiding there, you haven't come to see your brother-in-law yet. It turned out that he had already been discovered by his father, Shen Yong smiled and hurriedly ran over.

Shen Yong was in a hurry when he got up, and came to the front yard before he freshened up, Shen Baoshan saw that he was disheveled and was about to have a seizure, but he was robbed by his wife Xiao Shi and said, "Yong'er, come and see your brother-in-law." ”

Shen Yong had long heard that this future brother-in-law Ma Xicao was the younger brother of Ma Xifan, the current king of Chu, although he was a person in the temple, he was obsessed with practicing martial arts, and worshiped Xue Daofeng, the owner of the Sword Villa, as his teacher, the essence of martial arts, not under the two uncles of Yu Bu, and was about to salute, but was stopped by Ma Xicao, and said with a smile: "We will be a family in the future, and the second brother will not have to be polite from now on." ”

Shen Yong actually has a lot of complaints about Ma Xicao in his heart, Shu and Chu are adjacent to each other, when the Ming Emperor Meng Zhixiang established the Shu State, he has always had the heart to form an alliance with the Chu State, and proposed the intention of marriage, but Meng Zhixiang has no daughters under his knees, and the two daughters of Ma Yin, the king of Chu, have already been married, Meng Zhixiang then adopted Shen Min, the daughter of Shen Baoshan, the righteous brother, as an adopted daughter, and married Ma Xicao, the fifth son of Ma Yin, but unfortunately the Central Plains Dynasty was later re-established, Shi Jingjiao Jianjin and died in the Tang Dynasty, the southern countries were uncertain, Shu and Chu were suspicious of each other, and the marriage was immediately stoppedMa Yin is now deceased, but the marriage is still valid, so he is scheduled to come to Chengdu to welcome his relatives on October 15. For such a political marriage, Shen Yong was already disgusted, not to mention that the victim of the marriage was his sister who grew up together, and he was even more unhappy, but the situation was not something he could change, and Shen Yong had to hope that this brother-in-law, who had never met before, was a dignified gentleman and could treat his sister well. When I saw it today, although Ma Xicao was richly dressed, he was not only solemn for two points, but he liked it for eight points. Shen Yongxin said: "My brother-in-law seems to be in love, and I hope that I can live a good life with my sister in the future." ”

Xiao Shi thought that Shen Yong would not wait to see Ma Xicao, but he would have thought that the two of them would fall in love at first sight, and immediately said with a smile: "Yong'er, go to the backyard and call your sister, this dressing up is sometimes, it's almost the same." Shen Yong smiled and said, "Okay!" took the order and left.

Turning into the backyard, Shen Yong went straight to Shen Min's boudoir, and when he walked to the door, he wanted to push the door and enter, but he thought that today was the first time his sister saw her husband, how could she be reckless as usual. There was a knock on the door, and the voice of the maid came from the door: "Who?"

Shen Yong laughed out loud, and before he could speak, Shen Min already knew who was at the door: "Yong'er, why are you here?" Shen Yong said: "Sister, my mother said that you have been dressed up all morning, so careful, it won't be in a hurry to get married." Shen Min was sitting in front of the mirror at the moment, and when he heard Shen Yong say, his face couldn't help but turn red.

"Oh, don't talk nonsense, son, if it affects the young lady's makeup, the new aunt will not look down on our young lady, and you can't afford this crime. "On weekdays, Shen Yong doesn't have the slightest young master's shelf, so the maids don't treat him as a master.

Shen Yong smiled: "Yes, yes, then I won't bother my sister, you can go to the front hall as soon as you finish, the new brother-in-law can wait." With that, he turned and walked away.

On the front hall, everyone sat separately, and Shen Baoshan said: "Cao'er, today is September 28, and there is still some time before the day of welcoming relatives. As he spoke, he saw the maid outside the door reporting that the young lady was already waiting in the courtyard. Shen Baoshan looked at Ma Xicao again, and said warmly: "Cao'er, our Shen family was originally born in the market, unlike other eunuchs and businessmen who have a lot of rules, since you and Min'er are going to get married, they have a lot to say, Min'er is waiting in the courtyard, you can go." Ma Xicao listened and bowed out of the hall.

Shen Baoshan turned his head again, looked Shen Yong up and down, pondered for a while, and said, "Yong'er, what crime should I be guilty of secretly running away from home this time?"

Shen Yong was shocked, he went home yesterday, his father didn't find trouble for himself, he thought that it seemed that he had let himself go this time, thinking about this matter in such a black and white past, who knew that he was talked about by his father in this hall today. Immediately pouted: "Dad, I know that I am wrong. Shen Baoshan saw that he was still smiling, and the anger in his heart rose by three points, and he said angrily: "Bastard, I'll let you learn to do business well, you ...... You ......" Shen Baoshan was speechless for a while, snorted coldly, and his face was very grim.

Xiao Shi saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly came to persuade: "Master, Yong'er ...... him"

"Shut up!" Xiao Shi, who wanted to be a persuad, unexpectedly provoked Shen Baoshan to change color, "You woman, you rely on your son for everything on weekdays, and now, what do you spoil you! How can I be worthy of the ancestors of the Shen family!" Shen Yong listened, his heart was uneven, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and finally said after holding back for a while: "Dad, how can you say that, mother, and besides, I did something wrong, why am I sorry for my ancestors?"

Shen Baoshan said sharply: "My Shen family has been in business for three generations, so I can earn this huge business, I expected you to learn more business scriptures, and take over this family in the future, who would have thought that you are a rebel, don't read the "General Theory of Shangjia", but look at what Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures, and see those have a fart!" Shen Yong was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to say more.

Shen Baoshan saw that his face was uncertain, and knew that he was not convinced by what he had just said, and said: "From now on, you must stay at home honestly, if you run away from home again, see if I don't discount your legs!"

Shen Baoshan looked at Shen Yong while talking, he never said a word, Shen Baoshan sighed and said, "Forget it, forget it, it's useless to force you at this time." It's better to reflect quietly, there is a tea garden on Cuiyun Mountain in the east of the city, Uncle Lin is old to see the garden, and it will be winter again, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand the cold, so you can go and put his position on the top, and think about it yourself on the tea mountain. ”

Xiao said: "Guarding the tea mountain?" Shen Baoshan said: "It depends on him, when he figured it out and when he went down the mountain." Shen Baoshan shouted: "He can't live? How does the seventy-year-old Uncle Lin live! Besides, on the tea mountain, if he is hungry, he grows vegetables by himself, and when he is thirsty, he carries water, what does it matter, I am not afraid that he will not be able to support himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to endure hardship, and he will not be able to guard a tea mountain. After speaking, he snorted coldly again.

Xiao Shi still had to fight, but Shen Yong interjected: "Mother, don't persuade me, I'll go to guard the tea mountain, I'll let my father see if I can guard the tea mountain well, and besides, Cuiyun Mountain is only half a day away from home, if my mother misses me, she can also go to see me." ”

Shen Baoshan saw that his son had no heart to argue, so he got up and was about to leave, just took two steps and looked back at Xiao Shi, and said, "Clean up for him, have lunch, and let him go up the mountain." ”
