Chapter 186: A Murder Knife
The lewd rain is falling, and the water is faint.
Yue Ziran took Huang Rong and Gou Sanye to stroll and approached the pavilion in the bamboo forest.
The octagonal cornices of the pavilion, the hideous beast head straight to the sky, has the potential to swallow the clouds and spit out the moon. There is a dilapidated plaque hanging on the pavilion, with the words "Shuiyun Pavilion" written in large black letters. There is a small river next to the pavilion, and because of the abundant rain, there is a "whoosh" sound at this time, rolling up small waves one after another.
The old eunuch had obviously been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw Yue Ziran and the others coming over, he hurriedly greeted him. He had changed into a yellow silk shirt at this time, and the black beard stuck to his nose had been removed by him.
"Son-in-law, please. The old eunuch stepped forward and said respectfully to Yue Ziran, and then his eyes fell on Huang Rong and Gou Sanye.
Yue Ziran didn't hide it, and directly introduced: "This is Miss Huang, and I haven't passed through the daughter-in-law." This is the third master of Freedom and Gou. ”
The old eunuch was stunned when he heard this, and deliberately looked at Gou Sanye, and then said to Huang Rong with a smile: "It turned out to be the daughter of the owner of Huangdao on Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea, and the Sprinkle family was rude before." ”
Huang Rong grinned and said, "You know my father?"
The old eunuch shook his head and said: "The Lord of Huangdao is one of the Five Uniques, how can the Sprinkle family not know it? ”
Huang Rong listened to the old eunuch's praise and felt sweet in her heart, and listened to Yue Ziran say angrily: "Yes, the dead eunuch, it is worthy of coming out of the palace, and his kung fu is very profound." ”
The old eunuch smiled very naturally: "Where, where, the Sprinkle family is just telling a fact." ”
Yue Ziran did not wait for the master to greet him. He sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion with a big grin. said: "Gossip is still less. Let's tell me what you're looking for me first. ”
"No hurry, no hurry. The old eunuch smiled and said, "The hall master heard that Gongzi Yue likes the things in the cup, so he specially asked me to bring a good flower carving from the palace to Gongzi Yue." After that, he was afraid that Yue Ziran would not be satisfied, and explained: "This flower carving was given to the hall master by the emperor back then, and even today's officials do not have such a blessing." ”
As soon as Yue Ziran's wine worm was aroused, he couldn't wait. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the wine jar on the stone table, opened the wine seal, smelled the wine, and praised: "It's really good wine." "Say it. He sealed the wine again, handed it to Bai Rang, who was waiting behind him, and said: "This wine is a terrible thing to drink on this occasion, you put it away for the time being, and then taste it slowly when I am free." ”
Bai rang answered.
The old eunuch's eyelids twitched, and he smiled reluctantly at the end, and said: "Since Gongzi Yue loves wine like an idiot, I will no longer be reluctant, and today I will treat Gongzi Yue with tea instead of wine." ”
With that, a few people sat down. The handsome little eunuch personally served tea to everyone.
In order to show that there is no poison in the wine and food, the old eunuch personally drank a cup of tea. Then he tasted all the dishes before saying, "Please." ”
Yue Ziran didn't be polite to him, took a bite of the dish, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said: "Your imperial chef's skills are not very good, if you have the time to bring more high-ranking wine guests to my restaurant, it is definitely much more delicious than this." ”
The old eunuch hurriedly responded and said, "Don't worry, son-in-law, I will definitely bring more people to your restaurant to cheer at that time." ”
Yue Ziran replied without thanking him.
The old eunuch didn't feel that he had lost face, and personally poured himself a cup of tea, and said to Gou Sanye: "Third master, come, I will give you a cup." ”
Gou Sanye was a scholar and pedantic, so he didn't raise his eyelids, just raised his teacup, and drank it all by himself.
The old eunuch just pretended not to see it, and took the opportunity to wave it.
He sighed and said: "Third Master Gou, back then, Murong's predecessors were a generation of heroes, and they were among the Taizu of my dynasty in terms of martial arts and knowledge, but it is a pity that the ancestor was a Xianbei person, and in the end he failed to gain a foothold in my Central Plains, otherwise there would be no Khitan and Jurchen people competing for the world." ”
Murong Longcheng is the ancestor of the old scholar who lived in the previous generation, and he was a member of the Xianbei clan.
In that year, the Xianbei Murong clan invaded the Central Plains, greatly revitalized the style, and established several dynasties such as Qianyan, Houyan, Southern Yan, and Western Yan. Later, the Murong clan was destroyed by the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the descendants were scattered all over the country, but the ancestors and grandchildren, fathers and sons, and the idea of reviving the country has always existed from generation to generation.
In the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Murong clan has been operating in secret and has saved a huge industry. At the end of the Five Dynasties, there was a martial arts wizard in the Murong clan, and this person was Murong Longcheng. He created the wonderful martial arts of "fighting and turning the stars", which was invincible in the world and shocked the world. He did not forget the legacy of his ancestors, entangled the heroes, and intended to restore the country, but at this time, a Zhao Kuangyin came out.
Zhao Kuangyin left home when he was young, he was a ranger, he made many heroes and heroes when he traveled the rivers and lakes, and he also learned a good skill, and his reputation in the green forest was no worse than that of Murong Longcheng. Later, Zhao Kuangyin traveled from all walks of life, and finally got mixed into a high position in the army, and the limelight overshadowed Murong Longcheng for a while.
The two had a few fights in the troubled times at that time, but they were all draws, and no one could help anyone.
However, it was the end of the Five Dynasties, and the biggest disaster was the continuous incursion of the Khitan and other ethnic groups in the North to the people of the Central Plains, so the people of the Central Plains hated other ethnic groups in the north in particular, and it happened that Murong Longcheng was a Xianbei tribe, so the Jianghu guests around him gradually dispersed.
It was not until later that Zhao Kuangyin had the right time and place, established the Great Song Dynasty and finally took charge of the Han Dynasty.
Later, Murong's descendants still had some things, until the Shi family and other eight families were favored by the Murong family and settled in Taihu Lake, and finally formed the current free residence.
And the Murong family has been passed down to the old scholar generation, because of the hopelessness of recovering the country for many years and the influence of the Han culture, it has long been no different from the Han people. The old scholar has no descendants and no apprentices, and he only felt that the world was about to change dramatically, and he wanted to seek a rich and noble road for the free house and the common people in the world, so he passed the free house to Yue Ziran when he played chess with the old monk in Xiangyang.
However, the descendants of Murong Longcheng lived in Taihu Lake and passed on to the Southern Song Dynasty. Although there is no longer the intention of recovering the country, there has always been a force in the Great Song Dynasty that is abiding by the will of Song Taizu, keeping an eye on the free house, and trying to deal with them in secret.
Gou Sanye listened to the old eunuch's words, smiled coldly, and didn't speak, pricking up his ears to listen to what kind of medicine he was selling.
The old eunuch continued: "At the beginning, we had some fights and misunderstandings with Zizaiju, and now after many days, we happened to encounter such troubled times, I think we should all let go of these old hatreds. ”
Yue Ziran turned his teacup upside down and said, "No, is it your order that the people from the Star Picking Tower sent by the Iron Second Sect to assassinate me? This can't be said to be an old hatred, right?"
The old eunuch's smile remained unchanged, and he said haha: "Gongzi Yue said that he was joking, how could we ask Xingxinglou to assassinate you? You know, everyone who knows about Xingxinglou knows that you are the famous 'murderous knife' Xiao Jiuye of Xingxinglou." ”
"Murder?" Huang Rong's eyes widened, she didn't know that Yue Ziran actually had this name.
Yue Ziran didn't answer Miss Huang's question, and scolded: "The dead eunuch didn't pretend garlic for me, you did it." ”
The old eunuch still had a smile on his face and said, "Gongzi Yue, you can't talk nonsense, we really didn't do this thing, and besides, you don't have any evidence to prove that we did it?"
"As soon as I became the master of the free house, I was hunted down and killed, isn't it who you are? If you want to talk about things today, you have to pay my mental damage fee first. (To be continued!)
