Fang Zhongjin walked into the Xie family's study when he was in the morning, and what he saw was Xie Liang tied to a chair.

Xie Liang is still a fourteen-year-old skinny child. At this time, he shouted at Fang Zhongjin, who had just entered the door, with the voice of the male duck who had just entered the door: "Let go of me, if you hinder my big affairs, our brothers in the Dragon City Xuanshao Seven Tigers Gathering Hall will not be able to spare you!"

His eyes were wide open, his face was red and dripping blood, and he looked like he was going to eat his flesh raw.

If it is placed in normal times, Fang Zhongjin will not be able to avoid such a teenager. But now Xie Liang looks like ten taels of biting silver. Fang Zhongjin was reluctant to leave his mother alone in Beijing to dig up the gold that would cost his life. At present, since there is an errand, it is natural to grasp it firmly.

He sat down in a chair and asked, "What kind of big deal is it?"

"Juyi Hall elected the hall master today, I was too young to have extravagant hopes. However, the two eldest brothers, Hao Siyuan and Lei Zeyue, jointly recommended me. If I don't play, am I still human!?"

The names of Hao Siyuan and Lei Zeyue have also been heard of by Fang Zhong Jin, and they are both the children and grandchildren of some people in Beijing who rely on martial arts to be knighted. There were originally many generals who fought the country with Taizu, and most of them were crowned kings with different surnames. It's just that they have been killed almost today, and the rest are all people with humble titles and family owners who know their duties. Most of these families don't control their children and grandchildren, and as long as they don't cause trouble, they will let them do whatever they want. But these people who are messing around together are all seventeen or eighteen years old, and some of them are even married. How can you play with a fourteen-year-old?

"Who are the people in this Seven Tigers Gathering Hall?"

"Hmph, it doesn't hurt to tell you. We are the eldest brother Hu Zongyi, the second brother Luo Enjie, the third brother Chen Yuxuan, the fourth brother Gao Luyi, the fifth brother Hao Siyuan, the sixth brother Lei Zeyue, plus me ranked seventh. ”

"They are all much older than you, how can they push you to be the hall master?"

Usually no one wants to listen to Xie Liang talk about their Juyi Hall, but since someone sent him to the door today, of course he has to say it well: "Since our Juyi Hall has the word 'righteousness', of course righteousness comes first." The election of the hall master does not look at other ages and family backgrounds, but only on how high his righteousness is. Either you can fix the trouble for your brother, or you have something good to invite your brother to enjoy, then you will be credited. Although I am young, I have a lot of credit, which is why several big brothers recommended me. But how dare I grab this head? Brother Hu is naturally the best choice for the hall master. I must appear today to show my heart, I dare not be a person who forgets my roots, and I will look forward to Hu Zongyi's eldest brother in this life. If they don't see me, if something happens to me, they'll kill you with a thousand knives!"

Fang Zhongjin simply leaned back in the chair, crossed Erlang's legs and asked, "Then what did you do?"

Xie Liang's face was hard to hide, and he said: "Once the emperor ordered the Sichuan army to enter Beijing to listen to the reward, and Xue Yikai, the leader of the Sichuan army, brought several sons and nephews into Beijing together. We, the Seven Tigers Gathering Hall, finally seized an opportunity to teach them a lesson. ”

"I remember that the Sichuan army was strict in governing the army, and several of their young generals were also appreciated by the emperor. How did you have a holiday with them?"

"I don't know about this, anyway, a few big brothers don't like these kids. Once I caught the opportunity, the three of their little ones came out to play. We're going to block their way. I also took the lead in finding out their roots. ”

"The result?"

Xie Liang's face turned red and said: "These three boys are very evil, the seven of us have surrounded them, but they don't know what strange formation they used to fight us, and in the end they didn't suffer." ”

"What about you?"

"We haven't seen their demon magic before, and we're a little confused for a while. However, I was the first to come out and was the most injured and took a big credit. ”

"I remember that this is a nest. ”

"Hmph, once the third brother had a quarrel with someone. The other party was on the street and didn't let the third brother go, and the third brother released a contact cannon. I received the signal and arrived immediately. It turned out that the third brother accidentally tore a girl's skirt, what a big deal? The girl cried as if she had been greatly wronged. Later, I asked my mother to help pay some silver, enough to buy more than 30 skirts, and then it was settled. Of course, this work is also on my head. ”

"Why are you standing up for others, haven't others helped you?"

"Once I was locked up in the ancestral hall by my father, and I set off fireworks. ”

"They're here to save you?"

Xie Liang explained slightly deflated: "The weather was bad that day, and they probably didn't see the fireworks when they were released." Besides, my mother secretly released me in the middle of the night, and I don't know that they came later. ”

"And what good things have you enjoyed so many times?"

"The day before Brother Hu got married, he took our brothers to play with the girl......"

"You went?"

"They said that I was still young, don't easily break the true yuan of the child, so I didn't go. Xie Liang blushed and said, "There was another time when Second Brother Luo got good wine from the Yangtze River shipwreck. It's only a small pot, and if you sell it, it's worth a thousand gold. Second Brother Luo didn't say a word, and invited the brothers to drink. ”

"You drank?"

"It happened so suddenly, they didn't find me for a while. This wine is out of the water, and if it is left for one more day, the aroma of the wine will be detracted by one point. In order not to destroy the heavens, the brothers could only drink the wine first. Xie Liang said with his head slightly drooping.

"Then what's the benefit of being the master of your Gathering Hall?"

"It's not good, it's just that being the head of the hall has more responsibilities. From then on, two meetings in the hall were held every ten years in Shuying Pavilion, and the hall master was the host. If the brother is in trouble again, the hall master must bear the brunt of the situation. ”

"Why is it that there is always you in the beginning, and there is no you every time you are happy?" Fang Zhongjin asked as if unintentionally.

Xie Liang didn't have the pride he had at the beginning, and said with half a bit of resentment: "Isn't this all unfortunate?"

"I don't think so. Fang Zhongjin sat up straight again and said, "The first thirty years look at the father and respect the son, and the last thirty years look at the son and respect the father." Your father is a scholar in the court, and you are willing to contribute money and effort, so of course everyone coaxes you to play. If you accomplish nothing in thirty years' time, your father will be disgraced because of you. ”

Xie Liang said angrily: "Nonsense! Thirty years later, I will definitely have been killed in martial arts." Besides, our brothers are also affectionate and righteous people. That is, you villain's heart to spend the belly of our gentleman!"

Fang Zhongjin said: "If you don't believe me, don't go to your Juyi Hall today, no matter what." Tomorrow they must have unanimously elected you as the head of the hall. ”

Xie Liang's eyes were blank, looking blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.

Fang Zhongjin made persistent efforts, stood up and asked, "You said you want to take the martial arts test." But I know that martial arts is not only a test of skill, but also a test of the art of war. You can't even recognize the three-talent array that the Sichuan Army relied on to become famous, how can you pass the exam?"

He leaned over to look at Xie Liang, who was tied into a zongzi, and then made the final blow: "Actually, it's very simple to break the three-talent formation, do you want to learn?"
