Volume VII Hundred Schools
As soon as the words fell, a woman Yingying walked over, with green silk high plates, jade flour cheeks, apricot eyes and a small cherry mouth, although she was dressed in plain clothes, but the brilliance loomed, walking like a weak willow wind, looking forward to the beautiful eyes, she was a woman with a national color and fragrance, even compared with Xu Xinchen.
"Hey, why is Childe here?" it was the girl who greeted her first, and seemed to know Mingxuan.
"Who is this?" Ming Xuan didn't seem to have seen her in his memory.
"Let me introduce, this is Gu Mingxuan Gu Gongzi, this is Xiao Xiaoxiao Haoyue, her reputation is much higher than mine, although Gongzi is a newcomer to Liangcheng, he should have heard of it, but there are not many people who have seen her true face!" Ma Zhiwen introduced with a smile.
"Master, where are you talking about apprentices like that!" Seeing the master teasing herself, Haoyue was coquettish for a while, her face was slightly red, and she was a little shy.
"It turned out to be Miss Haoyue, I have heard her name for a long time, but I haven't seen her person!" Ming Xuan smiled faintly, and Shi Li said.
"The little woman rarely shows her true face in the proud building, don't blame the son. Haoyue knew what she meant, and said apologetically.
"Oh, you've known each other for a long time!" Ma Zhiwen was a little surprised, Ming Xuan only came to Liangcheng yesterday, and Haoyue didn't want to see it.
"Didn't the master hear about what happened yesterday?" asked Haoyue.
"I drank with the old man of the Li family yesterday for a night, and I only woke up this morning, what happened?" Ma Zhiwen said with some embarrassment.
"It's fine, it's just that it was ...... last night" Haoyue briefly said what happened last night, and even Mingxuan and the four generals also said about the battle, it seems that there is also Haoyue or the maid next to her in the crowd.
"Oh, I see, I'm afraid you came to me for this......" Ma Zhiwen said meaningfully.
"The matter started because of it, but I didn't want Gu Gongzi to be implicated, so I ...... So I wanted to ask the master to come forward and resolve the matter, but I didn't want Gu Gongzi and the master to be old acquaintances. Haoyue said truthfully.
"Gu Gongzi and I only met this morning, alas, you girl, in order to help outsiders, you pushed your master into the fire pit, alas, ......" Ma Zhiwen pretended to sigh and said, without blame, but with a suspicion of joking.
"Master......" Haoyue didn't follow, her face was blushing, and Mingxuan was a little dazzled.
"Miss Haoyue is kind enough to take care of her heart, but yesterday's incident has nothing to do with the girl, it was my hand, and I should bear it. "Mingxuan's masculinity is surging upward, and no matter how bad it is, there is no need for the woman to ask others for help.
"Miss Haoyue, don't worry, Gu Gongzi's matter is also my Li Yutang's business. A hearty voice came, and Li Yutang walked up from downstairs with a smile.
"I've seen Mr. Ma, I've seen Gu Gongzi, I've seen Miss Haoyue, it's just the right time, I have no intention of eavesdropping, and I hope to forgive me. Li Yutang greeted everyone, but his eyes stayed on Haoyue.
"What's the matter with Shopkeeper Li?" Ma Zhiwen was familiar with Li Yutang, but he didn't know what his purpose was when he went upstairs.
"I'm here to thank Gu Gongzi, someone in the building made trouble yesterday, thanks to Gongzi's help, so that Wangyue Tower's reputation will not be ruined, and Li will lose face. Li Yutang said gratefully, he is the party, naturally knows the reason for yesterday, because of the face, he is not good to thank in person, when he wants to repay afterwards, Mingxuan has long gone, fortunately today Mingxuan came again, heard the shopkeeper report, Li Yutang immediately rushed over to thank him.
"It's a lot of effort, so much to worry about. Mingxuan didn't deny it.
"I really can't imagine that Gu Xiaoyou has only been in Liangcheng for two days, and he has made friends with all the people on the third floor, admire and admire!" Ma Zhiwen did not hide his admiration.
Since they knew each other well, the four of them did not see each other and sat at the table.
"By the way, Brother Li, what did you do with that old man yesterday?" Ming Xuan asked curiously.
"What else can I do, seeing that I was captured, the old man immediately wilted, and after several tortures, he told the truth, he is a new merchant on Guzheng Street, and Jiang Ming, the street owner of Guzheng Street, has been friends for many years, and has a strange temper, not that he has no money, but he likes to eat and drink, and later notified Jiang Street owner and ransomed him back. Li Yutang said helplessly, speaking of which are all familiar people, it is not easy to make it too stiff.
"It's not strange that weird people and strange friends open shops on strange streets. Ma Zhiwen said with a smile.
"Master, you haven't said how to solve last night's incident!" Haoyue was still thinking about this matter, it seemed that she was determined to take over this matter, after all, if she hadn't tried her best to invite Ming Xuan to correct her piano skills, so many things would not have happened.
"Gu can still handle last night's incident, so there is no need for the girl to worry about it. Ming Xuan said lightly, seeing that Haoyue mentioned this matter several times, he seemed to be very uneasy about himself.
"Gu Gongzi is afraid that he has misunderstood Miss Haoyue, this Zhu family has been inherited in Liangcheng for hundreds of years, its combat power is very strong, there are countless hidden masters, the four families will just be ordinary thugs of the Zhu family, Gongzi must not take it lightly. Seeing that Mingxuan had some misunderstandings about Haoyue, Li Yutang immediately defended her.
"Shopkeeper Li is right, Gu Gongzi is still careful. Ma Zhiwen also said cautiously.
"Oh? Seeing that everyone was so cautious, Mingxuan didn't know why.
"This is actually the secret of several major families, and ordinary people really don't know that hundreds of years ago, Zhu, He, Li, Zhang Sijia is already a famous family in Zhongzhou, the family power is strong, although not as good as Xie Yao and Chen's three major families, but in Zhongzhou is also famous, what is even more commendable is that the four family heads have excellent personal relations, marry each other, form an alliance, is where no force dares to underestimate, but then the Demon Sect is rampant in the world, indiscriminately killing innocents, the world is righteous to fight each other, a tragic fight broke out in Zhongzhou, blood flowed everywhere, corpses are everywhere, although in the end the evil is invincible, the Demon Sect is destroyed, but the world is also suffering heavy losses, Zhu He Li Zhang is no exception, the four family heads are all killed in battle, the elite disciples have suffered countless losses, and the power has plummetedAfter the war, the four heads of the family gave up their industries in other places in Zhongzhou, and all came to the bright city that was still unknown at that time, and lived a semi-secluded life, but although the four families were weak, they were still very strong together, so the enemies did not dare to come to the door, and they passed that period smoothly, but unfortunately, the successor of the family was wise but not eloquent, not good at management, it was the decline of the family business, and the relationship between the four families was becoming more and more indifferent, and because of the coexistence of the city, there was inevitably no conflict in businessThe Zhu family and the Zhang family have formed a grudge and are completely hostile, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still many masters hidden in the family, and the life span of the martial arts cultivators is much longer than that of ordinary people, so no one can guess how strong these families are, especially in recent years, Liangcheng has gradually prospered, and there are many foreign forces, but very few people can stand in Liangcheng, and no one can shake the status of these four, which shows its strength。 Ma Zhiwen said slowly.
"And Zhu Yuntian, the head of the Zhu family, has a tyrannical temperament and is resolute, as soon as he heard that Zhu Xinli was injured last night, he immediately sent four generals to come over to find trouble with Brother Gu, but Zhu Yuntian was unusual, completely silent, which was even more terrifying. Li Yutang added that dogs that can bark do not bite, and dogs that bite do not bark.
"Then what kind of identity do you have on the third floor and a street in Liangcheng?" Ming Xuan couldn't help but ask curiously, not caring how complicated the shape he was facing.
"Didn't the old man just say, very few people from outside forces can gain a foothold in Liangcheng, and we are the ones who are left to stand on it. Ma Zhiwen said with a smile.
"I see. "It seems that the power of these families is also extraordinary.
That's why I'm in such a hurry to discuss countermeasures with my master. Haoyue said aggrievedly.
"I'm sorry for misunderstanding Miss Haoyue!" said Ming Xuan apologetically.
"Alas, I'm so tired that I'm an old man! But now that Shopkeeper Li is also willing to help, things will be much easier, so let's take a trip between Shopkeeper Li and Lao Lao, Zhu Yuntian shouldn't give me two face." Ma Zhiwen said helplessly.
"Dare to disobey. Li Yutang replied with a smile, his eyes involuntarily looking at Haoyue.
The knot in his heart was untied, the meal was still delicious, Li Yutang was in charge of the North Building, and the matter was complicated, so he went to deal with it first, and waited for the things to be arranged properly, so that Ma Zhiwen could set off together.
"So far, Gu Gongzi still refuses to reveal his identity?" During the conversation, Ma Zhiwen suddenly asked meaningfully, how could he have no background at such an age but with such skills.
"Isn't Mr. Ma the same?" After understanding so much, Ming Xuan's thinking became clearer and clearer, such a knowledgeable person, and he could stand in this bright city, he would not be an idle person.
"Ma Zhiwen, the master of the Liangcheng branch of the Baixue Hall. Ma Zhiwen has nothing to hide.
"Qingyang Gate Sunset Peak disciple Gu Mingxuan. "Ming Xuan has nothing to hide.
"It turned out to be a master disciple of Qingyangmen, no wonder he was so good!" Untying the last knot in his heart, Ma Zhiwen regained his hearty appearance.
"Ah, you turned out to be a disciple of Qingyangmen, so I worried about you in vain. Hao Yue was anxious and fast-talking, but as soon as these words came out, she suddenly felt that there was a lot of meaning in her words, and she immediately blushed.
"As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual, I am only a shallow learner, just an ordinary disciple in the Qingyang Sect, and I still can't take on a big responsibility, and the tired girl is worried. "Ming Xuan doesn't think that he feels good about himself like this, and Hao Yue will have special feelings for him.
"Did Gu Gongzi come here on a special trip, or did he travel here?" Ma Zhiwen made a cup of tea and said casually.
"Traveling here, I didn't expect to poke the basket unintentionally. Ming Xuan said apologetically.
"How can I blame the son, when I see that the road is uneven, I should draw a knife to help, this is chivalrous, blame the Zhu family for being too arrogant and domineering, and if I am old, I am afraid that I can't help but take action. "Back then, in order to gain a foothold in Liangcheng, Ma Zhiwen did a lot of work with the people of the four families.
"Ma Lao, my affairs have been taken care of, and I can leave at any time. At this moment, Li Yutang walked up again.
"Okay, let's go now, go early and come back early, I haven't had enough of the wine yet." Ma Zhiwen laughed, got up and went downstairs with Li Yutang.
Upstairs, only Mingxuan and Haoyue were left.
