Brilliant thorn

Jueying said goodbye that night and went south to Sichuan. In the early morning of the next day, Wu Shanyun also came to bid farewell to Fu Zhanfeng.

"Why do you have to leave one by one?"

The house was lively and lively yesterday, but today they are going to go their separate ways, Fu Zhanfeng is a little unhappy.

Wu Shanyun said: "It's been nearly two months since I left the church, and I have a lot of work to do, so I have to go back."

Fu Zhanfeng didn't do much to keep her anymore, he ordered Fu Shaoyu to escort her out of the city, and squatted in the small garden by himself to clean up the flowers and plants that were ruined by camels yesterday.

Hearing footsteps behind him, he said without turning his head, "Xiaojue, come here."

After Xiao Jue approached, Fu Zhanfeng saw that he was neatly dressed, with a soft sword wrapped around his waist, and asked, "Are you going out?"

Xiao Jue originally planned to go to the inn secretly to check Shi Zhengping's life and death while Fu Shaoyu was away, but after a second thought, he shook his head and said, "Don't go out," he knelt down beside Fu Zhanfeng, "What is grandpa doing?"

"Do you know the name of this flower?"

Fu Zhanfeng played with a few small flowers, some purple red or bright yellow, the leaves were thick like pine needles, but the petals were thin, not very beautiful.

Xiao Jue shook his head.

"This is Songye Peony, and it is Shaoyu's mother's favorite flower." With the flower mud all over his hands, Fu Zhanfeng shook it helplessly, and sighed: "Hey, I am not good at planting flowers to amuse birds!"

"I come."

Xiao Jue rolled up his cuffs, loosened the soil with a small shovel, and replanted the fallen and rescued small flowers. Fu Zhanfeng was so happy that he just sat down on the ground and looked at this small flower garden.

"You don't know, when Shaoyu's mother was sixteen or seventeen years old, she was very naughty and couldn't stay at home for a moment. At that time, I was busy all day long, and I didn't have time to take care of her. If I didn't pay attention, she Just slipped away." Fu Zhanfeng sighed with a smile, "This temperament is not like me at all."

Xiao Jue raised the corners of his mouth, quietly listening to him recall his daughter.

"Do you know where she went?" Fu Zhanfeng said, "She went to Sichuan alone, and returned after a few months. The first thing she said when she entered the door was to tell me that there were such pine-leaved peonies all over the mountains and plains. The home is beautiful."

Xiao Jue carefully looked at the flowers in his hand, picking out a single flower was really ordinary, if it was connected into a sea of ​​flowers, it would be quite interesting.

"I was so angry with her that I punished her to kneel on the wall of the ancestral hall and think about her mistakes. But after all, she was my own flesh and blood. I couldn't bear it after all. I brought her a bowl of soup at night, but she disappeared again."

Xiao Jue was a little surprised: "Leaving home in a fit of anger?"

Fu Zhanfeng shook his head, thinking of the past, there was a helpless and doting smile on his face that had experienced vicissitudes: "She ran to plant flowers in the middle of the night."

"..." Xiao Jue was dumbfounded for a moment before saying, "Your daughter is very interesting."

"Hmph, blame me for pampering her so much that she is so naive."

Naive enough to make a personal decision with that swordsman surnamed Ling for life, completely ignoring his feelings as a father, if she had listened to her own advice, how could she have been implicated and caused her death?

He stared at the pile of swaying flower seedlings, his two gray and sword eyebrows slightly twisted: "Fate, this is all fate."

Xiao Jue filled the soil well, compacted it with his palm, thought for a while and said, "You have raised Brother Yu very well."

When Fu Shaoyu was mentioned, the old man's mood brightened again: "This kid is even more difficult to discipline than his mother, but he is a sensible and filial child, and he has the shadow of Fu Mi in his eyebrows and eyes. With him by his side, the old man is also a good boy." consolation."

"She must be very beautiful." Xiao Jue said.

"Who is beautiful?"

Fu Shaoyu only listened to half of what he said, and knelt down beside Xiao Jue, seeing that his cheeks were covered with a little flower mud, making him even more lovely and angry than usual.

Fu Zhanfeng asked: "Sent your aunt out of the city?"

"Well," Fu Shaoyu nodded, "She told me to supervise you to press the Guan acupoint around the shoulder more, and you are not allowed to be lazy."

Fu Zhanfeng pretended not to hear, stood up and patted the dust, and said to Xiao Jue: "Don't do this, leave it to the servants to take care of it." After speaking, he turned around and left, "I'll go and see the camels, don't be hungry. .”

"I'll go find you to press your shoulders in a while." Fu Shaoyu said loudly, before he finished speaking, he was gone.

He shook his head and smiled lightly, then bumped Xiao Jue's shoulder again, and asked, "You haven't answered me yet, who are you calling beautiful just now?"

Xiao Jue concentrated on planting flowers, his eyelashes drooping but he smiled silently.

Fu Shaoyu hooked some dirt with his fingertips, and wiped it on the fair face, "Say it? Say it?"

Xiao Jue tilted his head to hide, his legs were numb from squatting for a long time, he couldn't support himself stably, he staggered and fell to the side, was quickly pulled into his arms by Fu Shaoyu's swift hands, then the world spun, and he was crushed among the flowers.

The fragrance of freshly turned soil diffuses from the tip of the nose.

"Dirty." Xiao Jue protested, "Newly changed clothes today."

"It's okay, I'll wash it for you, and you should tell me the truth first." Fu Shaoyu asked, with smiles shining in his eyes.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Jue simply relayed to him the conversation he had just had with Fu Zhanfeng.

Hearing the words, Fu Shaoyu was silent for a moment, then suddenly leaned his head against his forehead, and said, "Do you still remember what I said, after my mother passed away, I was raised by my grandfather, I lived in Peidu all the time, and occasionally went to another place? place?"

Xiao Jue nodded, he still remembered that Fu Shaoyu promised to take him there after he recovered, and tell him all about his past.

"There is a hillside full of pine-leaved peonies. I heard from my grandfather that it is the fruit of my mother's labor." Fu Shaoyu rolled over from him, lay on his back on the soft soil, and squinted at the blue sky. , said: "It's this season, the flowers are blooming one after another, it's very beautiful."

He tilted his head to look at Xiao Jue: "Do you want to take a look?"

"Think," Xiao Jue leaned over and pecked his lips, "Take me there."

Fu Shaoyu touched his face, just now Xiao Jue rubbed a little dirt on it, he shouted loudly to the back who had got up and left: "I will help you wash your clothes, you wash my face!"

Xiao Jue walked quickly towards their small courtyard without looking back.

The two stayed with the old man in Peidu for a few more days before setting off. As for the destination of the trip, Fu Shaoyu had no intention of telling Xiao Jue in advance.

"Why didn't you ask me?" Fu Shaoyu reined in, let the horse slow down a little, and kept pace with Xiao Jue.

Xiao Jue's black robe was rattling by the wind: "What are you asking?"

"Naturally ask where you are going." Fu Shaoyu smiled frivolously, "If you follow someone without asking, are you afraid that I will sell you?"

Xiao Jue snorted coldly: "I see who dares to accept it."

Fu Shaoyu laughed loudly, whipped his horse, and led the people towards the southwest.

Passing by a place called "Fifty Mile Slope", the two dismounted for a rest, found a small restaurant and ordered two bowls of Yangchun noodles.

"Do you know why this place is called Wulipo instead of Thirty Li or Bashili?"

Fu Shaoyu poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Xiao Jue.

Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"Here," Fu Shaoyu pointed to the southwest, "Fifty miles away is Chunshan Terrace. Because the terrain is undulating like a hillside, it is named fifty miles slope."

Xiao Jue always felt that he had heard the name of Chunshantai before, but he couldn't remember the exact source for a while.

Just when he was about to ask questions, a few swordsmen came in from the small restaurant, chose a table next to him noisily and sat down, after ordering food and wine, they continued chatting, as if no one was there.

Xiao Jue was most annoyed by such noisy people, he glanced coldly at the side, and saw that those people had no intention of restraining himself, he wanted to warn, but Fu Shaoyu held his hand and shook his head, whispering in his ear : "Listen to what they are saying."

When people from the Jianghu get together, they naturally talk about recent novelties in the Jianghu.

The most important thing recently is the Heroes Conference that will be held in a few days. These swordsmen were fortunate to be invited to participate, and they were very excited and excited.

You know, not just anyone can get that hero post.

"This opportunity is a rare one at the Heroes Conference. If you and my brother want to become famous in Jianghu and become famous in one fell swoop, you must grasp it well!"

"Being famous is second to none, the main thing is that the evil deeds committed by that guy are really outrageous. If you can really kill the villain with your own hands, it will be a great joy in life."

"What Brother Li said is very true, but I heard that that guy is extremely cunning, is he really captured?"

"The call letter is written in black and white, clear and distinct, Brother Zhu, don't be suspicious."

"But I heard..." The man surnamed Zhu looked around, lowered his voice, and said cautiously, "Didn't the person with different eyes kill the Yan family? It stands to reason that he should be arrested and brought for trial." , how did you catch a..."

"Brother Zhu, be careful," his companion interrupted him by pointing at the table, and then said in a low voice, "Treading the Immortal Pavilion has done many evils for decades, and recently it has even killed my righteous martial arts with reckless abandon. How can we tolerate it?"

Xiao Jue's heart trembled, and he glanced at Fu Shaoyu, who lowered his brows and lowered his eyes, and was still listening carefully, without much reaction.

Only the swordsman surnamed Li took up the conversation: "Brother Zhu, don't you understand? The hero meeting is just a swearing-in meeting before conquering the Taxian Pavilion. It doesn't matter who will sacrifice the flag, as long as he is Those who step on the fairy pavilion will do."

The surname Zhu nodded repeatedly.

Fu Shaoyu turned around suddenly, clasped his fists at the people on the table, and said in a good voice: "Can I ask some brothers, who is the person who was arrested and sacrificed to the flag?"

The man surnamed Zhu was straight-hearted, seeing that Fu Shaoyu's demeanor was not evil, he wanted to tell the truth, but was stopped by the swordsman surnamed Li.

He glanced vigilantly at Fu Shaoyu's side, but seeing that Xiao Jue's expression was stern and unkind, and he covered his left eye with an eyepatch, he deliberately connected him with the strange pupil that has been rumored recently.

Out of caution, he replied cautiously: "Your Excellency is extraordinary. If you are a person in the Jianghu, you should have received a hero post. We will naturally know who the brothers are talking about. If you are just curious, I would advise you not to trouble yourself like this." Things are related."

Hearing this, Fu Shaoyu knew it was impossible to ask, he thanked him and sat back in his seat.

Until the two of them finished eating Yangchun noodles and went out, the scrutinizing eyes of those next to them were always burning and pressing, and they never restrained in the slightest.

Seeing Xiao Jue's unhappy expression, Fu Shaoyu blamed himself a bit: "I knew that Feng Yan would spit dirty water on you, and I shouldn't have taken you to Duanlong Mountain, and I shouldn't have met him again."

This is not what Xiao Jue was angry with. Although Yan Xinghan was not killed by him himself, he died because of him, so it is not considered Feng Yan's slander.

He's worried about other things now.

Why did some important people like Fu Shaoyu not know about it when all those unknown juniors received the hero post?

Could it be that his identity has been exposed, and Fu Shaoyu was also suspected?

It was the last thing he wanted to see.

Even though he doesn't care about bullshit and justice, he is afraid that Fu Shaoyu will become a street mouse that everyone shouts and kills because of him being implicated.He was afraid that Fu Shaoyu would hate him because of this, which was more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Brother Yu, don't you doubt this?"

"What do you doubt? Please invite if you want, and don't invite if you don't, and vice versa."

Go if you want, whether he invites you or not.

Fu Shaoyu got on his horse and didn't bother with this matter. The two continued to move forward, but before they got out of the boundary of Shilipo, the sender arrived.

A white-clothed horse with a long knife on his back is none other than Shi Yi, the chief disciple and future head of the Danyang School.

"Fortunately, I caught up with you guys. Brother Fu, where are you going?"

Fu Shaoyu shook his head and didn't answer, he just asked: "Ah Yi is so eager, but is there something urgent?"

Shi Yi nodded, he got off his horse, and handed over the two posts respectively.

Xiao Jue was surprised: "Mine?"

"Naturally," Shi Yi said with a smile, "Uncle Shen told me that Mr. Xiao is young and promising, so he should not be treated lightly."

Xiao Jue took the post and opened it to read it carefully. The words in black and white were pierced through the back of the paper.

"In the Taxian Pavilion in the middle of Shu, there are the Cui family's thieves, who keep wolves, courteous and sycophants, harm loyal and good people, and love to make troubles. First, there was Tu Ling's family32, and now there are vicious dogs poisoning countless rising stars. Humans and gods are indignant, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate it.

Tang Yun is the eagle's claw of his sect, who can harm the good and the good, and do a lot of evil.However, if you do many unrighteous actions, you will die yourself, and you will be captured alive.On July [-]th, Jinping City will hold the Hero Conference and Demon Slaying Pledge Conference.

Weier, the heroes of the world, gathered to respond, sweeping the battle, raising swords and drums, killing evil spirits, and cleaning up the world.Like a law! "
