Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting the Capital Chapter 8, Monster Hunting Conference
When he looked back, he saw that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man, about forty years old, with a white face and a slight beard, an elegant appearance, and a scholarly dress. The middle-aged man arched his hand and said: "In the autumn rain, friends on the rivers and lakes called 'Iron-faced Meilangjun', dare to ask what the two of you are called, where does this come from, and where are you going?"
Xu Wuxian hurriedly said: "Under Xu Wuxi, this is my brother, named Zhu ...... Zhu is incompetent. We came from Hangzhou to go to the capital to do some business. "Wuxian has never known the name of the obese boy, and he has no time to talk to the boy along the way. Now when passers-by asked, he didn't want to be known that the person he was carrying was actually a mentally handicapped teenager, and at the same time, he couldn't lose his manners, so he had to give the boy a name on the spot. Wuzhi thought: "You said that you are a 'pig demon', although it is a joke, I am afraid that there is also a hidden mystery, it is better to give you a surname Zhu, you are lazy, although there is some brute strength, but the mind is dull and ignorant, except for liking to eat, there is really nothing else, just call you incompetent." As soon as I thought of the name I had chosen on the spot, I couldn't help but feel sick as soon as I said it.
The fat young man also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, my name is Zhu Wuneng, his name is Xu Wuxi, he is my eldest brother, I am his younger brother, I am very hungry now, that ...... Where's that 'Juying Building'? Let's stop wasting time, why don't we hurry over. ”
Xu Wuxi patted Zhu Wucan's left arm, and hurriedly said: "Incompetent, we met this Xianggong Pingshui, how can we rush to disturb others......
The "iron-faced beauty" Mo Qiuyu laughed a few times, stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Wuneng's hand, and said: "You might as well do it, it is really Mo's honor to meet the two young heroes today, then the 'Juying Building' is at the mouth of Yiyi Lane in Wucheng County, less than twenty miles away, so the two of you will go with me." ”
Without waiting for Wuxian to open his mouth and refuse, Zhu Wuneng had already said a few "Okay, good!", and pulled Mo Qiuyu straight out of the tea shop. Xu Wuxian shook his head and smiled bitterly, there was no other way at the moment, so he had to get into Mo Qiuyu's carriage with Zhu Wuneng.
The carriage ran fast, and it didn't take long to enter the south gate of Wucheng County. This Wucheng County belongs to Yunzhou Mansion, north of Taihu Lake, south of Tianmu, although the county seat is not big, but also quite famous in the south of the Yangtze River, its territory is beautiful with mountains and clear waters, rivers are vertical and horizontal, aquatic products are abundant, fish and shrimp are fat;
The carriage drove through the lively Yiyi Lane and arrived at the largest restaurant in the local area, Juying Building. The wine in this Juying Building is full of drinkers, so lively, and most of the guests sitting in the banquet are either rich or expensive. The shopkeeper in the restaurant couldn't help frowning when he saw Xu Wuxian and Zhu Wuineng's clothes, showing a look of disdain, but when he saw Mo Qiuyu, who was dressed in an elegant silk shirt, he barely squeezed out two smiles and brought the three of them to a square table in the lobby to sit down.
Mo Qiuyu ordered five catties of beef, three pots of wine, ten flatbreads and some side dishes with wine, and not long after the ten flatbreads came up, they all entered Zhu Wuineng's big belly. Mo Qiuyu smiled when he saw this, and ordered Xiao Er to take another twenty flatbreads.
Mo Qiuyu was chatting with Xu and Zhu while eating, when he suddenly saw a red-faced strong man walking towards him with a smile, and hurriedly got up and greeted him: "Yo! Isn't this the leader of the 'White Horse Gang', why didn't you stay in the north, why did you come to this humid place in the south of the Yangtze River?"
It was the leader of the "White Horse Gang" who came, and when he saw Mo Qiuyu, he also bowed his hand again and again: "Didn't I receive a post from the conference, that monster had been in Jizhou Mansion before, and someone on my side of me had to come over to contribute to this demon hunting conference!"
Bian Liansheng said again: "What, you, 'Meilangjun' Mr. Mo, don't be your immortal cave master in Shuanghua Cave on Congyun Island, but you came to Wucheng County to do something?
Mo Qiuyu hurriedly stopped his eyes from Bian Liansheng's words, and his face was quite embarrassed: "Where is it, I didn't hear that there are many heroes and heroes gathered on the shore of Taihu Lake tonight, and everyone wants to discuss the strategy of catching demons together." In the past few days, friends in the rivers and lakes have been talking about how our 'demon hunting conference' is, although there has never been a trace of the pig demon on my Congyun Island, but it is the responsibility of people in my martial arts to kill demons. Although the autumn rain is only shallow and weak, for the livelihood of the world, no matter what, I have to rush over to contribute a strategy!"
Bian Liansheng hurriedly smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, everyone will discuss together, no matter how powerful the pig demon is, it can't beat everyone together! Wait a minute, at this 'Demon Hunting Conference', Mr. Mo can't hide, if you have any good plans, you must say it for everyone to hear." ”
Bian Liansheng was about to move, Mo Qiuyu said again: "Brother Bian, let me introduce you to you, this is Xu Wu's son, this is Zhu Wu's incompetent son, today I saw this Zhu Gongzi in a tea shop in the south of the city, and in a moment, he broke a wooden spear into dozens of pieces with his bare hands, this divine power, among the young generation of today's martial arts, I am afraid that it is rare!"
Bian Liansheng only looked at Xu Wuxian and Zhu Wuneng who were sitting on the side at this time, he saw that Zhu Wuneng only cared about eating and drinking with his head down, and his eating appearance was so vulgar, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and said in his heart, who doesn't know that you Mo Qiuyu likes to brag nonsense in plain language, this confused young man is clearly just a "rice bucket". didn't say much at the moment, and was about to turn around and walk away, when he suddenly saw the white-haired fox Xu Wuxi was holding in his hand, his face couldn't help but change slightly.
Bian Liansheng looked at Mo Qiuyu, who was smiling slightly beside Xu Wuxian, and then looked at the white fox in Xu Wuxian's hand, thoughtful but didn't say much, just arched his hand slightly towards the two, and then took a few of his entourages and picked a vacant place to sit down.
Xu Wuxian doesn't like to be lively by nature, and it is really helpless to follow Mo Qiuyu to Juying Building this time. He saw that the leader of the "White Horse Gang" was full of oil and flesh, and he didn't want to say much to him in his heart. As soon as Lian Shengfu sat down, a white-bearded old man came over next to him and sat on the left side of Lian Sheng.
The white-bearded old man said: "Isn't this the leader of the 'White Horse Gang' in Jizhou?"
Bian Liansheng didn't get up, but just bowed his hand and said, "Oh! Who am I, it turns out to be the old man Qi who is the head of Yanzhou Tiger Crane Boxing." ”
The white-bearded old man: "Bian gang leader, I heard that this 'Demon Hunting Conference' has more than 100 heroes from the rivers and lakes, all of whom are the leaders of our Central Plains martial arts sects and factions, which is really rare!"
Bian Liansheng: "Isn't it! This conference was personally convened by the head of the Cangzhou Mansion Flame Hall. Over the years, the name of Cangzhou Agni Hall has resounded all over the country. When it comes to the person of the master of the Agni Fire Hall, Wang Xingmin, who doesn't admire the old man Wang Xingmin, who doesn't admire it! Old man Wang asked everyone to come, and everyone naturally wanted to come. ”
The white-bearded old man: "I heard that this demon hunting conference, not only will the head hall master Wang personally preside over it, but even the big disciple of the Shaoshan faction, Luoyang, will appear at that time. ”
Bian Liansheng: "I have also heard that after all, the hall master Wang is also an outer disciple of the Shaoshan faction. Shaoshan naturally won't stay out of the matter of the Agni Hall. However, since Luoyang killed the 'Black Wind Seven Evils' with the power of one person outside the Huoyun Forest in Jinan Mansion three years ago, he has been practicing in retreat in the master gate for all these years, and he almost does not leave the house, and he never imagined that he would go out of the customs for the sake of the 'pig demon' this time. ”
The white-bearded old man: "That's right! The prestige of the young mountain disciple Luoyang, who in the rivers and lakes doesn't know which one doesn't know! Tonight, I guess everyone not only discusses the plan to catch demons, but also wants to see the style of the 'Cangshan Twilight Rain Sword'......"
Xu Wuxi was listening attentively to the conversation in the next seat, when he suddenly felt that his right leg moved, and someone was pulling his trouser leg, he looked down and couldn't help but be surprised.
