56. Brotherhood (2)
On the afternoon of the third day, the group arrived in Qufu, which was the hometown of Confucius, and the spirit of Sven was especially strong. Yi Wanyu's childlike heart suddenly rose, and she bought a set of scholar's clothes and towels for Qin Chuan in the clothing store, combed his hair for him, and dressed him up.
Qin Chuan looked in the mirror, and couldn't help but smile dumbly, he now has a green shirt and a square scarf and jade around his waist, as if he has become a scribe.
As soon as I inquired with the shopkeeper of the clothing shop, Wanchuntang Pharmacy was on the main street in the north and south. Zhao and Qiu arranged the largest pilgrimage inn in the city and asked for a few upper rooms. Originally, the disciples of the beggar gang were supposed to sleep on the outskirts of the street according to the rules, or under the eaves of the corner of the corridor, and were not allowed to stay in hotels and inns. However, Qin Chuan saw that the three injured people in the carriage had not yet recovered, so he ordered a stay in the hotel to recuperate as the helper, and Qiu Dalun and the others had no objection.
After lunch, Qin Chuan secretly thought that helping the second brother pick up Miss Lu was his own private matter, and it was not suitable for Qiu, Zhao and others. discussed with Yi Wanyu, and the two walked out of the inn side by side and came to Wanchun Hall.
Hua Wanchun was a Confucian doctor in his sixties, born with a clear appearance and a gray beard. He heard that Qin Hai's fourth brother had arrived, and when he saw Qin Chuan dressed as a scholar, he liked it a little first, and hurriedly ushered the two of them into the backyard of the hospital. I saw a beautiful woman sitting alone under a tree in the courtyard, dazed, it was Lu Qiuniang.
Hua Wanchun coughed and said with a smile: "Miss Lu, someone is here to pick you up!"
As soon as Lu Qiuniang looked up and saw that it was Qin Chuan, she couldn't help but blush slightly and stood up. Qin Chuan stepped forward and saluted, smiling: "Miss Lu, Qin Chuan is polite!"
Lu Qiu Niang returned the salute and said in a low voice: "Fourth son!"
Qin Chuan saw that although she was still weak when she spoke, her face was much better, and he asked Hua Wanchun, "Doctor Hua, how is Miss Lu's injury?
Hua Wanchun stroked his long beard, shook his head and said: "Miss Lu was slapped in the back of the 'Fengfu acupoint', and the old man had acupuncture for several days and took the medicine of Guben Peiyuan. It's no big deal. I wrapped a few more packets of medicine and let her continue to drink it for a few more days, and she would be cured. ”
Yi Wanyu took out a silver ingot, handed it to Hua Wanchun, and said with a smile: "It's so tiring, may I ask how much is the consultation fee?"
Hua Wanchun pushed his hands and shook his head and said: "I can't help it, I can't help it!" Please take back the silver, a few days ago, Brother Qin Erye had already paid an old ingot of gold before leaving. Enough, enough!"
Yi Wanyu stuck out her tongue. smiled and said: "What a big stroke! It seems that the little woman is stingy!" took back the silver, smiled lightly at Lu Qiuniang, and said softly: "Sister Lu, let's go!"
Lu Qiuniang looked at her face in a daze, slightly distracted, and muttered: "Are you ......" Yi Wanyu asked, "What's wrong?" Lu Qiuniang shook her head, her complexion was lost, and she said blankly: "Little girl, you are so beautiful!" It turned out that she was conceited and beautiful in her life. is rare, at this moment, when I saw Yi Wanyu's appearance, I felt ashamed of myself.
Yi Wanyu helped Lu Qiuniang go back to the room to pack her luggage, while Qin Chuan followed the guy to the medicine room to get the medicine. The three of them saluted Hua Wanchun and said goodbye. Xiang Kai walked out of Wanchun Hall.
The three of them returned to the inn and came to the guest room. Qin Chuan explained to Lu Qiuniang that the second brother had something important to go to Jinan, and asked him to pick her up on his behalf to take her back to Dafeng Castle, and they would be reunited soon.
Qin Chuan spoke. While observing, I saw Lu Qiuniang bowing her head and not saying anything. Her expression was cold, I didn't know what she wanted, and she felt slightly embarrassed.
Yi Wanyu glanced at Qin Chuan and motioned for her to come and comfort Lu Qiuniang. Qin Chuan understood, got up and said, "Miss Lu, you can rest first, and retire first!"
As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Lu Qiuniang say: "Fourth son, you personally lit a fire to decoction medicine in the inn in Bianyuan Town that day, was it for this Sister Yi?"
Qin Chuan stopped and turned around, and when he saw Lu Qiuniang's face teasing, he couldn't help but blush, and said, "No, it's not." ”
Lu Qiuniang was slightly surprised, turned her face to look at Qin Chuan, and then looked at Yi Wanyu, seeing that the two of them smiled at each other, their eyes were full of tenderness, and there was no trace of mustard. Although Qin Chuan was red-faced, he had no guilt, and Yi Wanyu smiled like a flower, and there was no sense of displeasure.
Lu Qiuniang bit her lip lightly, lowered her head, and stopped speaking.
Qin Chuan turned around and walked out of the door, leaving Yi Wanyu and Lu Qiuniang's two daughters in the room, thinking: "Looking at Miss Lu's expression, it is obvious that I don't see the second brother here, and I am very sad in my heart. I hope Yumei can persuade her!"
For dinner, Qin Chuan, Qiu, Zhao and others ate in the lobby. Zhao Jin asked Huang Bao to invite Yi and Lu Ernu. Huang Bao soon went and returned, and said to Qin Chuan: "Back to the helper, Miss Yi said that she would accompany Miss Lu to eat in the room, let us have a banquet first!" Qin Chuan knew that Yi Wanyu was still explaining Lu Qiuniang, so he nodded.
Zhao Jin immediately instructed the shopkeeper to send another meal to the second woman's room.
After the meal, Zhao Jin, Huang Bao, and Qiu Dalun consulted Qin Chuan, and each went out to contact the disciples of the Baixi Gang and the Beggar Gang to inquire about the news.
Qin Chuan took a bath and changed clothes, and sat quietly in the room alone to cultivate vitality.
He practiced for a week, opened his eyes, walked around the room of Zhao Qiu and others, and saw that the three of them had gone out and did not return, so he felt slightly uneasy in his heart, so he had to go back to the room and wait.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Yi Wanyu walked in with light steps. Qin Chuan said with a smile: "I didn't see you coming to the lobby during the meal, did Miss Lu eat the meal arranged by Brother Zhao?" Yi Wanyu said: "I ate." After a pause, he said in a low voice: "Brother Chuan, this Sister Lu is so beautiful, no wonder your second brother is so fond of her!"
Qin Chuan took her hand and sat down, and said, "Come on, does she agree to go home with us?" Yi Wanyu smiled: "She just resolutely refused to go to Dafeng Castle at first, saying that she and we have never known each other in life, and we will go our separate ways tomorrow, and we will have nothing to do with it in the future." I persuaded her for a long time, and now she seems to have moved, but she is still hesitating. ”
Qin Chuan frowned and said, "Don't she understand the second brother's mind?" Yi Wanyu sighed: "She naturally understands." Although she didn't say it, I could tell that she was worried that she was from a dusty background and was not worthy of the second son of Qin in Dafeng Castle! According to my guess, it is rumored that the family style of Dafeng Fort is strict in the rivers and lakes, and Miss Lu really doesn't want to embarrass your second brother!"
Qin Chuan thought to himself: "With the temper of my father and eldest brother, I am afraid that there will be difficulties in this matter!" He had already expected this when he heard Qin Hai say that he wanted to marry Lu Qiuniang. But he knew that this second brother was stubborn and stubborn, and who could dissuade him except his father?
Yi Wanyu suddenly broke free of his hand slightly, stared at his face, and said, "Brother Chuan, Sister Lu is so pitiful, I was in a brothel when I was a child. If it weren't for my father-in-law to save him in time, I am afraid that my fate would be worse than Sister Lu! I know that the people of the world are prejudiced against the Fengchen woman, your second brother wants to marry Miss Lu in a righteous and bright manner, this marriage must be full of difficulties, I beg you to try to help the two of them!"
Qin Chuan nodded and said: "It's rare that the second brother has moved his true feelings this time, and Miss Lu is affectionate and righteous, I should try to do a good thing for the two of them!"
Yi Wanyu sighed lightly and said, "I know that you will be like this." But I'm afraid it's not easy to pass my aunt's level!" Qin Chuan was also worried about this, and when he heard this, he frowned and said nothing.
Yi Wanyu understood his thoughts. "This matter can only be said when we go to Gale Castle." You don't have to think too much about it, let's think about it together when the time comes. Qin Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, you are so smart, it depends on you this time." ”
Yi Wanyu suddenly sneered and said, "Brother Chuan, I heard that Miss Lu said that you personally lit a fire and decocted medicine for Sister Lan, I really can't see it, you are still a affectionate, righteous, gentle and considerate brother!"
Qin Chuan blinked and grinned, "What." Are you jealous?" Yi Wanyu flattened her mouth and said, "Who has the kung fu to eat your idle vinegar?" looked at Qin Chuan sideways, and said with a smile: "Brother Chuan, do you like me to pretend to be a man or a woman." Is it ugliness or handsome?" Qin Chuan smiled dumbly and said, "As long as you are happy, speaking of which, your disguise technique is really amazing, what do you look like." It's impressive, hehe!"
The two sat opposite each other in front of the candle, drinking tea and talking. Suddenly, the sound of footsteps was heard, and Zhao Qiu and the others knocked on the door at the same time and came in. Yi Wanyu got up and said with a smile: "Let's talk about business, I'll accompany Miss Lu!" smiled at Zhao Qiu and the others, and without waiting for the two of them to send each other off, they had already gone out.
Zhao Jin said diligently: "Qiyu Gang Master, the deputy helmsman of the Hebei Branch, came to report, saying that the 'Hejian Six Heroes' attacked Jijiabao overnight, killed the guards of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, saved the whole family, and now has successfully returned to Hejian Mansion." Vice helmsman Zhong is out asking to see him, can you let him in?"
Qin Chuan knew that the gang rules were like this, sighed secretly, frowned, and said: "Brother Zhao, no matter who wants to see me in this gang in the future, just bring it, and there is no need to ask for instructions!" Zhao Jin bowed and replied: "Yes!" turned around and shouted outside the door: "Brother Zhong, come and meet the gang leader!"
A person strode in outside the door, bowed to Qin Chuan, and shouted: "Subordinate Zhong Shaojie, see the helper!"
Qin Chuan stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand to help each other, and said, "Brother Zhong, please get up, don't be polite!" Zhong Shaojie stood up, but he was a tall bearded man with a big waist and a round waist, with thick eyebrows and eyes, and a fierce face.
Qin Chuan was very happy when he saw that Zhong Shaojie was heroic, and said, "Brother Zhong has worked hard!" Zhong Shaojie bowed down and said: "Qiqi Gang Master, the Xiong Boss of Hejian Mansion personally handed over a thing to the Gang Master, please accept it!"
Qin Chuan said: "What is it?" Zhong Shaojie took out a thin book from his arms and presented it with respectful hands.
Qin Chuan remembered the pamphlet that the Ten-Faced Demon King had given him to practice the Heart Breaking Technique that day, and couldn't help but frown secretly, thinking to himself, "Wouldn't it be another internal strength heart method?"
Zhong Shaojie said in a low voice: "Gang Master, this 'Whirlwind Sword Book', since the Iron Sword Gate was destroyed by the Demon Sect, there is only Boss Xiong in the world, which is very precious!" After a pause, he said: "Boss Xiong asked his subordinates to hand it over to the gang leader, and told the gang leader a word: The six bears in the river will withdraw from the rivers and lakes from now on, and will never follow Mu Changfeng and his party to kill innocents and be enemies of this gang." As for this sword book, I hope that the helper can find a person who is destined to have good qualifications and good character and temperament, so that he can carry it forward, and he will live up to the trust of his ancestors!"
Qin Chuan stroked the "Whirlwind Sword Spectrum" with his hand, and as soon as he groaned, he suddenly said: "Boss Xiong also retired to the rivers and lakes like a ghost mother-in-law, and he was afraid that I would not believe him, so he used this sword spectrum as a certificate." Boss Xiong, Boss Xiong, why do you bother? People in the martial arts have always cherished their secrets, this set of sword books is the thing of the Iron Sword Gate, how to carry it forward?" Thinking of the six bears in the river, Mu Changfeng lost his troops again, and his strength was greatly reduced, and his heart was also happy.
Zhong Shaojie said with a smile: "In the past few days, the gang leader has defeated the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and his prestige has spread far and wide, and the number of fellow Jianghu people who came to Benrudor to sign up for refuge has suddenly increased greatly. It's a blessing for this gang to have a young hero like the gang leader!"
Qin Chuan only said that this was a compliment, and he was busy with a few words of humility, but Zhao Jin also said: "Helper, not only the Hebei rudder, recently, many heroes from all halls and rudders have come to ask to join, and the number of brothers in this gang has also increased a lot, and the subordinates are busy with this matter." Ha Lu Ha!"
Zhong Shaojie hugged his fists and said, "Helper, our master is not at home, and our subordinates have to rush back to the rudder to prevent the enemy from attacking." If the helper doesn't give orders, his subordinates will retire!"
Qin Chuan nodded with a smile and said, "Brother Zhong, be more careful on the road!"
After Zhong Shaojie resigned, Qiu Dalun said to Qin Chuan: "Gang leader, the brothers of our beggar gang have heard that Qin Erxia has appeared on the shore of Daming Lake, and he has asked the disciples of this gang about the news of 'Mantianyun', and then left. ”
Qin Chuan thought to himself: "If the second brother can find the sky full of clouds, it will be wonderful. Suddenly, his heart flashed like lightning: "Daming Lake, Daming Lake! Why am I so stupid, Mu Changfeng is a native of Mujiazhuang on the shore of Daming Lake in Jinan! Could it be that he has returned to Jinan?"
At that moment, he said to Zhao Qiu and the others: "There are two elder brothers, notify the beggar gang and the brothers of the Baixi Gang, and secretly investigate whether there is a Mujiazhuang around Daming Lake, I suspect that Mu Changfeng, Mo Feixie, and Man Tianyun will hide in the left near." Zhao Qiu and the two bowed together and said, "Yes!"
Qin Chuan said: "Tell everyone to be careful, just quietly inquire about the news, and without my order, you must not confront the enemy head-on." Zhao Qiu and the others glanced at each other, and they both knew the meaning of the helper's words, with the supreme martial arts of Mu Mo and others, they rashly acted with them face to face, what if they were not sent to death?
Zhao and Qiu have been boiling on the rivers and lakes these days, and they are all rumored that Qin Chuan led the crowd to defeat the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and everyone knows that Qin Chuan and Yi Mu Shuangshu have signed a marriage contract. For a while, the name of Qin Chuan was resounding all over the martial arts, and it was really in full swing. In comparison, the statement about Yi Wanyu's "No. 1 beauty in martial arts" is far inferior.
The three of them discussed for a while, and Zhao Qiu and the others withdrew.
Qin Chuan was sent out of the door, and when he saw that the lights in Yi and Lu's second daughter's room had been extinguished, he thought that he was already asleep, so he went back to his room to sleep. (To be continued......)
