Comprehensive martial arts: Qixia town storytellers, the beginning of the tie to Qiao Feng

Seeing Shangguan Haitang's flustered look, Lu Yan couldn't help laughing.

After Shangguan Haitang went out, Lu Yan took off his clothes and sat down in the bathtub.

According to Shangguan Haitang's instructions, he ran the "Zixia Gong" while bathing, and soon he felt some numbness on his body, a little itchy, but also very comfortable, quite strange.

Before he knew it, more than half an hour passed, Lu Yan slowly opened his eyes, and looked down at the bathtub.

The water in the bathtub was green in color before, but now it has become dull, almost transparent, and the medicinal power contained in it has basically been absorbed by him.

Looking at his body again, the original bruised area has basically recovered at this time, and most of his internal strength has recovered. He doesn't have to wait until tomorrow morning, and his condition can be restored to its peak.

"The effect of this medicated bath is amazing! In this way, I can compete with my elder brother at least twice a day!"

Lu Yan came out of the bathtub, wiped himself clean, and originally planned to lie down and rest, but by some strange coincidence, he changed into his clothes and went out.

Seeing that the lights in Shangguan Haitang's room were still on, he went to the kitchen to get some snacks and fresh melons and fruits, then came to Shangguan Haitang's room door and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Shangguan Haitang's voice came from the room, Lu Yan pushed open the door and walked in.

Chapter 39 Playing the Qin and Singing

Lu Yan walked into the door, and the first thing he saw was Shangguan Haitang standing in front of the window.

The bright moonlight poured on Shangguan Haitang's body, reflecting Shangguan Haitang like a beautiful woman, elegant and pure, and the randomly scattered three thousand black hairs fluttered in the wind, as if they had the charm of touching people's hearts, which made Lu Yan lose his mind for a while. .

"What are you looking at?"

Shangguan Haitang looked at Lu Yan standing blankly at the door, feeling inexplicably shy.

Lu Yan recovered after hearing the words, coughed lightly, concealed his embarrassment, and said, "I'll bring you some snacks and fruits."

After speaking, Lu Yan walked to the table and put down the snacks and fruits.

It stands to reason that Lu Yan should leave after putting down his things, but looking at Shangguan Haitang standing in front of the window under the moonlight, he was reluctant to leave just like that.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that?"

Shangguan Haitang really wanted to ignore Lu Yan's gaze, but she really couldn't. At this moment, her heart was beating violently, as if a deer was bumping wildly.

Very strange feeling.

It is also a feeling that has never been felt before.

Lu Yan came back to his senses again, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with an excuse: "Well, I just want to say thank you to you."

Shangguan Haitang heard the words and said: "I just dispensed some medicine for you, don't be so polite."

Lu Yan shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about...you reported to me when you came back."

After saying this, Lu Yan suddenly turned around and walked outside.

Seeing Lu Yan leave, Shangguan Haitang couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but before she could recover, Lu Yan came back.

But this time, Lu Yan had an extra note in his hand.

Lu Yan held the note as if he was holding a piece of red-hot coal. It felt very hot and he panicked.

"this is for you."

Lu Yan put the note on the table, turned around and left again, but this time he closed the door, presumably he would never come back.

When he returned to his room, Lu Yan took a deep breath and couldn't help showing a look of regret on his face.

"Lu Yan, Lu Yan, you were not afraid when facing Dongfang Bubai, what did you say you were cowardly just now!"

……

Early the next morning.

Lu Yan got up early and was going to the lobby to have breakfast. When passing by Shangguan Haitang's room, the door just opened, and Shangguan Haitang in a white dress came out of the room. She glanced at Lu Yan, her face suddenly turned red, and she turned around in a hurry go downstairs.

Seeing Shangguan Haitang's shy appearance, Lu Yan felt a little happy in his heart, and his steps became much lighter.

The scholar looked at Shangguan Haitang who came downstairs, and said in surprise: "When did we live in such a girl in our inn, why haven't I seen it before?"

Lao Bai stroked his chin and said, "I haven't seen it either, but it's still a bit worse than the shopkeeper's. It's nothing to look at."

On the side, Tong Xiangyu behind the counter heard what Lao Bai said, with a smile on his face, and said: "Lao Bai, come here, and I will discuss with you about the salary increase."

The scholar was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and said, "Shopkeeper, I also think you are prettier than her."

Tong Xiangyu gave the scholar a blank look, and said, "Scholars are really glib, and none of them are serious!"

Talent: "..."

At this time, Lu Yan also walked down the stairs. He glanced at Shangguan Haitang who had already sat down at the table, then walked over and sat opposite Shangguan Haitang.

"Haitang, what do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine."

Shangguan Haitang worked hard to keep calm.

Lu Yan smiled slightly, and shouted to Dazui: "Dazui, two servings of soy milk fritters, and another side dish!"

At this time, Qiao Feng also came downstairs. He took a look at Lu Yan and Shangguan Haitang who were sitting together, and came over to sit down together.

After breakfast, Lu Yan and the three walked out of the city, and came to the place where they had discussed yesterday, and started a new one.

This time, Qiao Feng still used [-]% of his strength. Although Lu Yan still couldn't beat Qiao Feng, he couldn't just parry like yesterday. He could occasionally fight back, posing a certain threat to Qiao Feng.

After some sparring, Lu Yan became bruised and swollen again.

Go back to take a medicated bath at noon, then continue to practice in the afternoon, take another medicated bath in the evening, and continue to practice in the evening.

At the end of the day, although the medicated bath could help Lu Yan recover his internal strength and physical injuries, it could not recover from the mental wear and tear. Therefore, during the evening sparring, Lu Yan only held on for a while, and then he couldn't stand it anymore.

Seeing that Lu Yan was not in the right state, Qiao Feng stopped in time and said, "Second brother, don't rush for success, you need to take it step by step and take your time."

Lu Yan rubbed his swollen head, smiled wryly, and said, "Brother is right, I was too anxious."

Shangguan Haitang came over, handed a pill to Lu Yan, and said, "This is a medicine that refreshes the mind and nourishes the brain. You will feel better after taking one."

Lu Yan nodded, took the pill and swallowed it.

Seeing this, Qiao Feng said hesitantly: "Why don't you take a day off tomorrow and continue the discussion later."

Lu Yan thought for a while and asked, "Is there any way to make me recover faster?"

Qiao Feng shook his head, he couldn't think of any way to quickly restore mental strength.

Shangguan Haitang looked at Lu Yan with concern, and said, "You're too anxious, and you're stretching yourself too tight. You need to relax, for example, to enjoy the scenery and flowers, so that you can recover faster."

Qiao Feng agreed: "Miss Shangguan is right."

Lu Yan thought for a while and asked, "Can I listen to music?"

……

Hotel lobby.

Shangguan Haitang looked at Lu Yan who was sitting in front of a guqin, and asked in surprise, "You can play the piano?"

Qiao Feng was also very surprised, he didn't expect Lu Yan to be so versatile.

Lu Yan nodded. At the beginning, he won the master-level piano art by drawing a lottery, but he had never used it, but now he can use it to cultivate his sentiments.

Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Lu Yan gently plucked the strings.

As the melodious music sounded, Lu Yan couldn't help singing.

The sea laughs, the tides on both sides of the strait

Ups and downs with the waves only remember the present

The sky is laughing and the world is overflowing

Whoever loses who wins God knows

Rivers and mountains laugh and misty rain far away

The waves wash away the mortal world, how charming it is

The breeze smiles like loneliness

Pride still has a night photo

The laughter is no longer lonely

The pride is still laughing foolishly

In the corridor on the third floor of the inn, Ren Yingying in a green dress stood leaning against the railing, looking at Lu Yan who was playing the piano with a pair of clear eyes in surprise.

She was attracted by the melodious piano sound and the unrestrained and passionate lyrics, but she didn't expect that the person playing the piano and singing would be Lu Yan!

"He actually knows the rhythm..."

Ren Yingying looked at Lu Yan who was immersed in the music, and the expression on her face couldn't help becoming very complicated.

Chapter 40 Golden Single Draw!

After Lu Yan finished singing, Qiao Feng applauded excitedly, "Good song, good song! It should be clear!"

With that said, Qiao Feng picked up the sea bowl in front of him and drank it down in one gulp!

Shangguan Haitang looked at Lu Yan, her bright eyes were full of amazement.

This song is full of quackery, and it is not inferior to those classics handed down from generation to generation!

"I've never heard this piece, what's its name?"

Lu Yan replied, "The name of the song is "A Laugh from the Sea"."

Shangguan Haitang nodded lightly when she heard the words, and said, "What a laugh!"

At this time, Ren Yingying's figure came down the stairs slowly, holding a guqin in her arms, and asked Lu Yan: "Mr. Lu, did you write this score yourself?"

Seeing Ren Yingying who suddenly appeared, Lu Yan couldn't help frowning slightly. He didn't expect that Ren Yingying was still living in the inn and didn't leave.

He thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I didn't write this."

Ren Yingying heard the words and said: "I don't know which master this score is from, can Mr. Lu recommend it for you?"

Lu Yan shook his head again, and replied, "Even I may not see him now, so how can I introduce him to you?"

Ren Yingying sighed regretfully, and said, "That's such a pity."

After speaking, Ren Yingying put the Guqin in her arms on the table, and asked Lu Yan, "Mr. Lu, can you listen to me play a piece?"

Before Lu Yan could respond, Ren Yingying plucked the strings with her bare hands.

The sound of the music was like the ding-dong of spring water, flowing from Ren Yingying's fingertips, making the whole inn fall into silence again.

After playing a song, everyone came to their senses and praised it.

Even Shangguan Haitang looked at Ren Yingying with admiration. Among other things, in terms of piano skills alone, Ren Yingying might be even better than Lu Yan.

Ren Yingying smiled at everyone, then asked Lu Yan: "What do you think, Mr. Lu?"

Lu Yan took a deep look at Ren Yingying and said, "If you're asking about Qin Yi, my answer is very good."

Ren Yingying pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Lu should know that what I'm asking about isn't Qin Yi. Now that Mr. Lu has fought against Dongfang Bubai, he should also know that you are not Dongfang Bubai's opponent if you fight alone. "

After speaking, Ren Yingying took another look at Qiao Feng who was sitting not far away, and added: "Even if Mr. Lu has a brother-in-law to help him, it will not be easy to kill Dongfang Bubai."

Lu Yan shook his head and said, "Instead of wasting time on me, you might as well go to other places and have a look, maybe you will meet someone more suitable than me."

Although Ren Yingying was already mentally prepared to be rejected again, she still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when she faced Lu Yan's hard heart.

She couldn't figure out why Lu Yan refused again and again, since it was obviously a matter of mutual benefit.

At this moment, she also realized that it was impossible for her to get help from Lu Yan.

That being the case, she stopped doing useless work, picked up Guqin, bowed slightly to Lu Yan, then turned and went upstairs.

……

In the next few days, apart from storytelling step by step, Lu Yan would discuss with Qiao Feng.

Under this kind of high-intensity sparring, Lu Yan's actual combat experience has also improved dramatically. Although he is still not Qiao Feng's opponent, he can at least be regarded as a qualified grand master.

If they face Dongfang Bubai again, they will never be as embarrassed as they were last time.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed, and it was August. Qiao Feng, who had stayed in Qixia Town for nearly ten days, was finally about to set off again, preparing to return to the Great Song Dynasty.

On the official road, Qiao Feng looked at Lu Yan and Shangguan Haitang, and said, "Second brother, Miss Shangguan, send them here."
