Chapter 41: Mingjiao
Zhao Zhijing's eyes swept across several people in the store, and they all saw a deep shock and fear of themselves on their faces, Zhao Zhijing retracted his gaze and saw Han Xiaoying beside him, although there was still a shock to Zhao Zhijing on his face at this time, but there was no fear at all, and there was only deep love and care for Zhao Zhijing in his eyes.
Zhao Zhijing took Han Xiaoying's little hand and was about to leave the shop, when at this moment, the three Mingjiao people not far from him, under the leadership of the kendo man Zhuo Fan, walked quickly towards Zhao Zhijing's side. Zhuo Fan walked quickly in front of Zhao Zhijing, hugged his fists and saluted: "Zhuo Fan, the kendo man among the five scattered people in the Xia Ming Sect, thank you Brother Tai for blocking a few thieves for me, Zhuo Fan is here to thank you!" After speaking, Zhuo Fan saluted Zhao Zhijing again. Zhao Zhijing nodded slightly and said: "Zhuo Fan, you look at the eyes of the people in the store and see me only frightened without a trace of joy, obviously they think that I am several times more terrible than the scum before, aren't you afraid of me?" After speaking, Zhao Zhijing's eyes were slightly closed, and there was a flash of Dao essence in his eyes, and Zhuo Fan opposite him felt a cold neck at this time, as if a sharp weapon was on his neck. Zhuo Fan secretly stabilized his mind, went up and down the Adam's apple a few times, and secretly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and then said: "If it is false to say that I am not afraid of Your Excellency, standing with Your Excellency at this time, my heart is full of hair!"
After Zhuo Fan finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Zhijing twice, and saw that he was not angry, so he relieved his heart, and thought in his heart that it seemed that I had not made him unhappy. Zhao Zhijing glanced at him a few times and said, "The two of us are talking here, isn't this hindering the store's business? Why don't we go inside and order a table of wine and food to talk?" Zhao Zhijing didn't wait for Zhuo Fan opposite him to answer, he took Han Xiaoying like the counter of the small shop, and the shopkeeper on the side of the counter saw Zhao Zhijing coming over, and the cold sweat the size of a grain of rice on his face couldn't stop falling, and he kept thinking in his heart: "I don't seem to have neglected him today, and I shouldn't make him unhappy." ”
Zhao Zhijing walked to the counter and said to the shopkeeper who was still shivering: "The shopkeeper will find me a place in the backyard of your store where the environment is okay, put a table of wine and food, I want to have a few drinks with this brother!" The shopkeeper stretched out his hand to take the silver thrown by Zhao Zhijing, lifted it a few times with his hand, felt the weight in his hand, and his face, which was already full of sweat, suddenly showed a happy smile, and quickly beckoned Xiao Er to take Zhao Zhijing and Han Xiaoying to the backyard Zhao Zhijing turned around and glanced at Zhuo Fan and the others when he left. Zhuo Fan saw Zhao Zhijing's gaze, it was no longer possible to go at this time, only a wry smile with a bitter face at this time, and the two followed Zhao Zhijing to the backyard, Zhuo Fan looked at Zhao Zhijing and Han Xiaoying who were walking in front, and said in his heart, "Sure enough, it is a talented and beautiful woman, it is simply a match made in heaven, but this young man seems to be a little ruthless and a little domineering, and he can't be refused!"
Zhao Zhijing and a few people walked to the backyard, found a place with shade, there happened to be a stone table here, looking at the little two to go again, Zhao Zhijing said and said: "Little second brother, it's here! You quickly call your shopkeeper some wine and food!" After that, Zhao Zhijing walked towards the stone table not far away, and saw that there was some dust on the stone bench next to the table, Zhao Zhijing swept away the dust with a wave of his sleeves, and then reached out and took Han Xiaoying to sit down. Zhao Zhijing's movements were seen by several people behind him, and he thought in his heart: "This person really loves his own woman, looking at his woman is gentle and watery, his eyes are full of kindness, and he is not a person who likes to kill." Zhuo Fan and the three of them looked at each other before sitting down.
After a while, the store carried Zhao Zhijing's wine and food to the stone table, Zhao Zhijing waved his sleeve wine glass and suddenly flew out from in front of him, and a wine glass fell in front of one person, and then Zhao Zhijing mentioned the wine jug, and the mellow wine flew out from the wine jug, scattering three lines in the air and falling into the wine glasses of the three people, and the wine in the air fell just enough to fill the wine glasses of the three people, without a trace of overflow and a little missing. Zhuo Fan and the others glanced at each other and thought in their hearts: "This person is so profound, his true qi is divided into three strands in the air, and the wine has not spilled a trace, so high control!"
Zhao Zhijing poured a full glass of wine for himself and Han Xiaoying and said: "A few brothers of the Ming Sect, we will drink this cup together, so far we are friends!" After Zhao Zhijing finished speaking, several people reached out and raised their wine glasses, and the wine glasses of the five people hit in the air, and then several people drank up the wine in their glasses. At this time, Zhao Zhijing said: "Since they are all friends I know, I will introduce myself myself, under the surname Zhao, the single word name Jing, you can call me by my name, you can also call me Zhao Gongzi!" After hearing this, several people hugged their fists at Zhao Zhijing and said: "Zhao Gongzi is good!" Zhao Zhijing heard their answer, so he smiled and pointed to Han Xiaoying beside him and said: "This person is my wife, surnamed Han" Han Xiaoying heard Zhao Zhijing's words, her face showed a touch of red, and several people listened to Zhao Zhijing's words, and then said to Han Xiaoying: "Madam! Several people looked at Zhao Zhijing and didn't say anything, just looked at them with two eyes, and the three of them also reported their names one after another, as their leader, it was naturally Zhuo Fan, a kendo person, and the remaining two were just ordinary members of the Ming Sect, one was called Wang Wu, and the other was called Zhang Shan.
A few people talked about it, and at this time, after a few glasses of wine, they saw that Zhao Zhijing was also a good person, so they were no longer restrained. Han Xiaoying saw a few people chatting happily and said: "Brothers, I have a question, you are all from the Ming Sect, why don't I hear the name of the Ming Sect in the rivers and lakes?" After speaking, Han Xiaoying looked at the three of them with two eyes, Zhao Zhijing heard Han Xiaoying's question, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Xiaoying, you can ask me this question, I still know a little bit about the details of the Ming Sect!" After that, seeing the other four people on the table all looked at Zhao Zhijing in surprise, Han Xiaoying's eyes were full of curiosity about Mingjiao and surprise that Zhao Zhijing knew Mingjiao, but the other three people were full of panic in their eyes at this time, and they couldn't help but think that who this person was actually knowing the details of my Mingjiao.
Zhao Zhijing took a sip of the mellow wine in the cup, stretched out his hand and sandwiched some delicious side dishes before he spoke: "Mingjiao, originated from Persia, its real name is Manichaeism, which was introduced to Middle Earth in the first year of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, it was called Yuanjiao, and the Tang Emperor built the Dayun Guangming Temple everywhere, which was the temple of Mingjiao. Because the corrupt officials in the court oppressed Mingjiao, since the Northern Song Dynasty Fang Lafang sect leader, Mingjiao has had several incidents, most of the people in Mingjiao are righteous people, but due to the oppression of the imperial court, naturally do things a little excessively, and they are not obedient to the court, so that people in the rivers and lakes do not want to mention it, and naturally there is no sound of Mingjiao in the rivers and lakes. ”
