After a while, a person about fifty years old, with a full beard and a little kind, walked down the stairs, Yu Bo stepped forward and said: "Steward Cao has been good recently, I didn't expect to see the demeanor for a year", Steward Cao said: "Where does the spirit come from when you are old, it is a blessing not to get sick" "This young man is?" Steward Cao pointed to Chen Yanbo and said, Yu Bo said: "This is Chen Jumo's son, I want to come to the first village in the world this year to have a look and see it."

Steward Cao pointed at Xiao Ge and said: "This hero is", Chen Yanbo said: "My righteous brother", Xiao Ge said: "Xiao Ge meets his seniors". Steward Cao said: "Don't be polite, please do it inside."
Cao steward led Xiao Ge, Chen Yanbo to the village to introduce the situation in the village, such a large manor how can it be clear in a few words, around the wall, the manor covers a total area of more than 400 acres, the village is divided into two pavilions, the east pavilion is the resting place on the village, the west pavilion is the place to practice martial arts, the owner of the village is also considered a martial arts idiot, like to make friends with the world's martial arts people, so there is a special place for martial arts practice, there is a large hall in the middle, named: "Zhongxiao Hall" is also a place to discuss business things, called "Zhongtang" to receive VIPs, guests of the place.
When they were about to arrive at the middle hall, a group of people came out of the door, the middle figure was the most prominent, this person had passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, his temples were white, but he was still angry, righteous and awe-inspiring, and his white beard could not cover the rings of the years.
Chen Yanbo walked to Zhongxiao Hall, walked to the side of Shangguan Mu and said: "In Xia Chen Yanbo, my father Chen Jumo has been unwell recently, and he has not been able to come to the first village in the world and asks the owner to forgive his sins", Shangguan Mu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The body is important, anyone can come to report the matter, and there is no need for such a big gift", Chen Yanbo said: "Thank you to the owner Haihan", Shangguan Mu said: "Please inside, everyone who comes is a guest."
Shangguan Mu looked at Xiao Ge and said: "Chivalry reveals domineering, uprightness, and the two swords in the back are also peerless."
Xiao Ge said: "The owner of the village has won the award, and in Xia Xiao Ge, he is just a nameless junior."
Shangguan Mu said: "May I ask what sect and sect the teacher inherits."
Xiao Ge said: "Loose faction, fortune operator".
After listening to the Qi Gathering Dantian, Shangguan Mu pushed his palm hard to Xiao Ge, Xiao Ge used a single palm to pull back, the two palms were put together, and at the same time withdraw, Shangguan Mu was obviously testing Xiao Ge's internal cultivation.
Shangguan Mu said: "It's such a strong internal force, the old man knows that it is not as good as it."
Xiao Ge said: "The owner of Shangguan Zhuang is serious, and the heroism of the owner of Shangguan Zhuang back then shocked the entire Central Plains."
Shangguan Mu said: "The internal cultivation of Xiaoyao is famous in the rivers and lakes, and all the sects and factions in the Central Plains are just beyond reach."
Master Kongzhi said: "Amitabha, good at fighting and good at fighting", Shangguan Mu said: "I forgot, look at my memory, I have let everyone outside, please all inside."
Entering the middle hall, I saw that the hall was full of guests on both sides, Shangguan Mu introduced them one by one, the salt merchants in Yangzhou, the silk in Hangzhou, and the silk in Sioux City, and the hall was full of about 30 people, these people were not good-looking, how could they be compared with Chen Yanbo.
After meeting and greeting, the owner arranged for everyone to sit down to discuss business matters, at this time, there was a shout outside the door of the middle hall: "Father, something is wrong", this person is the same age as Chen Yanbo, dressed in brocade and silk, full of aristocratic atmosphere, graceful, eight feet tall, has a handsome appearance without wind and sun all day long, the face is clean, and the eyebrows are clear and bright, this person is Shangguan Mu's son Shangguan Lingyun, Shangguan Mu said: "What is the panic."
Shangguan Lingyun said: "Chaozhou City and Qi City have been slaughtered. Shangguan Mu said: "What, who did it."
Shangguan Lingyun said: "If you don't know Lu Dao, you know that Lu Dao is seven masked people, killing people like hemp, killing people everywhere, and the methods are extremely vicious."
Mei Junzi said: "Who dares to openly provoke Wang Fa in broad daylight."
Shangguan Lingyun said: "According to our intelligence, it is an organization called Tianmen, and we acted decisively, as if we came for a purpose."
The guests sitting on both sides couldn't sit still, their expressions looked flustered, they didn't know what to do, whether they would come to the first village in the world, there were many discussions below, only Shangguan Mu was still calm, and he had to find a way to stabilize everyone's emotions first.
Shangguan Mu said: "No matter who comes, if you dare to touch the person of my first village in the world, I Shangguan Mu will never let go, please rest assured, our first village in the world will definitely do our best to find out who has done something that hurts heaven and reason, and we will not spare it." ”
