Chapter 7 Walking Together

The doorman buried the sword master with the help of Xie Yang and cleaned up the dilapidated manor. According to Xie Yang's estimate, this manor has a history of at least several decades, if it is really as the sword master said, since the first war in Yangzhou lived a life of seclusion to the countryside, that year can be even longer, the sword master is the enemy of the ancestor back then, he saved him, and promised to take care of his disciple apprentice, it is really nosy, but I think of the sword master's high style and bright festival worthy of admiration, but the scene of being murdered suddenly feels regretful, it is not easy to be alone with a waste apprentice. But where did the sword master, who is over the age of old, find such a doorman, and he is so concerned!

Xie Yang looked at the doorman carefully, the doorman was two or three years younger than him, half a head shorter than him, very slender and thin, Xie Yang said, "Boy, the festival is smooth, Master Jian asked me to take you to Chengdu before I was born, and I will set off tomorrow!"

Unexpectedly, this waste doorman had a great temper, "I want you to take care of it, don't you know the way to Chengdu?

Xie Yang was speechless for a moment, it seemed that the sword master usually spoiled him, but now that the sword master is gone, I don't know who can take care of him. Xie Yang didn't care so much, so he followed this kid to Chengdu, and handing him over to the King of Shu could be regarded as fulfilling his promise to the sword master.

The two packed up and went on the road, in fact, Xie Yang didn't have anything at all, and this manor was not his, just picked out a few sets of clothes that could be worn, bought horses, and hurried on the road.

Along the way, Xie Yang really couldn't stand this kid, this doorman seemed to be going out for the first time, and he lacked experience in the rivers and lakes than himself, and a young man didn't have any hardships at all. To live in a good hotel, eat at least four dishes and one soup, hurry and slowly, one day I was tired of riding a horse, and I wanted to hire a carriage. Xie Yang suddenly felt that this errand was a bit bitter, but fortunately it was only from Yichang to Chengdu, if it was from Hainan to Yanjing, it would be a bad life. I really don't know what the sword master is doing with this waste apprentice, it can't be that people are old and want to play with virgins! Thinking of this, Xie Yang suddenly felt disgusted, and looked at this doorman from time to time to see if he had the characteristics of a woman.

Seeing that he couldn't help but look at himself, the doorman said angrily, "What are you looking at?"

Xie Yang said cheaply: "I'll see how your kid doesn't have a little masculinity, what's the use of the sword master asking you to be a waste, shouldn't it be that he took you to raise a private house, could it be that Master Xie is a pedophile." ”。

The doorman glared angrily and said, "I can't see that you look like a hero on the outside, but you are so ugly on the inside, my master is not as shameless as you say, I think you are underwhelmed, if my master is alive, I will definitely give you a slap."

Xie Yang was in a hurry, so it was rare to chat with this kid, and said idly, "What is the name of the little brother, how old is this year!"

Seeing that he changed the topic, the doorman was not dwelling on what had just happened, and said, "My name is Hongshan, and I am sixteen this year." After saying that, he didn't bother with him.

Xie Yang said, "I grew up in the Broken Dao Temple since I was a child, and I am the only one of my relatives. Now that I see the sword master being murdered, I understand your feelings very well, but there is one thing, I hope the little brother will keep it secret for me."

Hong Shan didn't look at him and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell you about your sect?"

Xie Yang said in his heart, this kid is sensible, since this is the case, he has saved a lot of trouble.

Just thinking about it, Hong Shan said again, "I'll keep it a secret for you, but you also have to promise me one thing, you have an extremely sharp green steel sword, and my master's green bamboo sword won't be given to you." We don't owe each other one love."

Xie Yang was helpless, this kid was also shrewd and didn't suffer losses, but it was really useless for him to ask for this green bamboo sword. And he agreed.

The two of them were in a hurry, and they were not in the mood to play in the mountains and rivers, in fact, in this era of chaos, how could they be in any mood to play, and Master Hongshan's new funeral was even more in no mood. Along the way, most of the displaced people fled, and there were also messages in the market, some said that Huangchao had fled to Yangzhou, and some said that they had entered Luoyang, and there were different opinions. What is certain is that the war continues, and the refugees who fled there are heading south or into Shu. Xie Yang and the others did not take the waterway, they rode all the way to the west, and they were very careful about staying in the hotel, after all, the soldiers were in chaos.

Mianyang is a larger county in the north of Chengdu, and the population is more than Yibin, after entering the city, Xie Yang felt that he came out of the refugee camp, Mianyang is rich, the high-rise buildings on both sides of the street are lined up, all inns and wine shops, and it is very lively.

From time to time, you can also see a lot of people in the rivers and lakes, Bashu martial arts and the Central Plains martial arts are very different, the Central Plains martial arts pay attention to the sect and name, and the Bashu martial arts is not the same, the Bashu martial arts sect is less, most of them are individuals, or three or five people together, as long as they have the ability, they can mix out of the famous hall, because of the Bashu partial security, the west is adjacent to Tubo, the south is adjacent to Kunming Dali, and the northwest has Hui, Gaochang, Tuyuhun, Rouran and other more than a dozen large and small tribes, many of these tribes admire the Central Plains culture, most of them come to Chengdu, so the martial arts of Bashu are also extraordinary, and many ethnic minorities are extraordinary. They are brave and aggressive, and there is a big gap between them and the Central Plains martial arts. After the rise of Song Kui, Song Kui unified Bashu Wulin in one fell swoop with his strong personal strength and the support of the valve behind him, and became the veritable ruler of Bashu Wulin, so he was also known as the "King of Shu", and the King of Shu had a close relationship with the imperial court and was a heartfelt supporter of the Tang Empire.

Xie Yang looked at the martial arts people who came and went, and then reverie the prestige of the King of Shu. Hong Shan urged, "It's getting late, don't look east and west, hurry up and find an inn, I'm starving."

The two found a few inns, but they were all full, and finally found a friendly inn at the end of the main street, and there was only one room left. Along the way, the two of them lived in two separate rooms, and for the first time, there was not enough room, Xie Yang didn't care, he was born poor, and he had suffered everything, but the young master of the doorman was very dissatisfied, and he looked arrogant, so he had no choice but to stay.

Hong Shan said, "Brother Xie, I have a habit of cleanliness, is it okay for you to sleep on the table!"

Xie Yang was indignant, "Two big men squeeze into a bed, what are you afraid of, I'm not interested in boys."

Hongshan was furious, snorted, threw out two golden needles directly in his hands, and came straight to Xie Yang, Xie Yang was drinking tea, suddenly saw the golden light flashing, and hurriedly leaned back, the golden needle passed over his head, fixed on the door frame, Xie Yang secretly called it dangerous, and said, "Boy, you are very ruthless, almost killed Lao Tzu."

Hong Shan said angrily, "Who told you to owe money, I still have needles in nonsense."

Xie Yang skimmed the golden needle on the door frame and was speechless.

Hong Shan said again, "I'm hungry, let's go downstairs to eat."

Xie Yang ordered six or seven dishes in one go, wanting to eat more to suppress the shock. There are still many guests in the hall who are drinking and eating loudly, and it is very lively.

While eating, there was a commotion on the street, "Tonight's curfew in Mianyang, the search for the flower picking thief gang, don't stay outside"

There was an uproar in the hall, and many of the passengers immediately made a lot of dissatisfied words.

Hong Shan was very excited, looked out, and Xie Yang said, "Eat your food, don't mess around."

"I want you to take care of it", Hong Shan was angry.

Xie Yang said in his heart, this may be another trick of a traitorous official, after the experience of Yibin Ferry, he has a little hatred and distrust of being an official, and the means of taking the opportunity to collect money make him hate it very much, remembering that he almost died in Yibin, he was dissatisfied, and called "Xiao Er, come to the pot of wine".

After two glasses of wine, Xie Yang felt extremely refreshed, wine is indeed a good thing.

At this time, a team of people walked in from outside, this team of people has local officials, there are also martial arts people with swords, led by a young swordsman, strode into the hall, looked around, and said, "Disturb you Yaxing, I am Chengdu Tang Zhen, on the order of the King of Shu to arrest the flower thief, please don't move, if there is any rudeness, please bear with me." With a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers had already begun to search.

Xie Yang looked at Tang Zhen, Tang Zhen was twenty years old, with sword eyes and starry eyebrows, and there was a gentleman-like elegance in his gestures, but he did not lose his rigidity and had a real heroic spirit.

"It turned out to be Brother Tang", a young man in the corner stood up and hugged his fists and said, "I'm Chang'an Sima Jinyu, and I'm willing to help Brother Tang catch the thief."

Sima is Chang'an Wang, very close to the royal family, Sima Xiangru, the son of Sima Xiangru is the leader of today's young generation, not only learn the rich five cars, martial arts is even more exquisite, currently in Chang'an for the emperor's imperial guard captain, Sima Jinyu is Sima Xiangru's brother, although he was born of a mother, the skills are very different, this person looks like a full of arrogance of the children of a rich family, do not learn no skills, this person is everywhere to mess with flowers and grass, everyone in Chang'an knows. Xie Yang is not very interested in this kid, and he has a high-spirited door valve style.

Tang Zhen hugged his fist and said, "It turned out to be Jinyu's son, but this time you don't need the son to help you punch, just watch the excitement."

Tang Zhen's words have a deep meaning, implying that Sima Jinyu does not learn martial arts, which is a burden in vain, and Xie Yang listens to it secretly.

Hong Shan's excitement did not decrease, and he said in a low voice, "This person is a waste, and he actually dares to help the fist, and he laughs at me."

Xie Yang said in a low voice, "Do you know?"

Hong Shan seemed to have thought of something, and said, "It's just heard."

Suddenly, shouting and scolding came from upstairs.
