Jianghu are all masters

79.

"Lu Shaoxia has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, so it's not like he hasn't heard any stories about the rivers and lakes, right?" Xiao Mobai has completely lost his self-confidence, and just clinging to the last bit of face, he insisted on asking, "Xiao is just a little curious……"

Lu Zhaoming replied, "I haven't heard of it."

Xiao Mobai: "..."

Xiao Mobai twitched the corners of his mouth: "Then your world...isn't it too boring."

Lu Zhaoming: "It's okay."

Xiao Mobai: "Okay? Then tell me, what else is interesting?"

Lu Zhaoming: "Practicing swords is very interesting."

Xiao Mobai: "..."

Wen Tingting frantically rubbed and blinked her eyes aside, she couldn't believe her eyes, she even pushed Zhang Xiaoyuan beside her, whispered in Zhang Xiaoyuan's ear, and asked: "Xiao Yuan, have you noticed? Xiao Mobai just suddenly changed Look good!"

Just as Zhang Xiaoyuan finished a mouthful of rice, he shook his head with his mouth full, expressing that he didn't see anything.

Except for the changes in the words above Xiao Mobai's head, he did not see anything.

Xiao Mobai finally gave up talking to Lu Zhaoming.

He turned to look at Zhang Xiaoyuan, smiled at Zhang Xiaoyuan tenderly and kindly, and asked, "Isn't Zhang Shaoxia still young?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Why did you suddenly start talking to him?

Zhang Xiaoyuan was not as reticent as Lu Zhaoming, he answered Xiao Mobai's words with a good temper, saying: "I am seventeen this year."

"You're already a little knight at the age of 17!" Xiao Mobai tried his best to flatter him, "I heard from Mr. Qi and A Yang that Zhang Shaoxia helped the Yamen catch a thief a few days ago. He really is a hero born out of a boy."

Wen Tingting burst out laughing, she hurriedly covered her mouth again, suppressed her smile, and even deliberately said: "Zhang Shaoxia is very skilled in martial arts, he fought all the thieves by himself, and that's how he rescued the captured girls." of!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan remembered the shame of being forced to dress up as a woman again.

Xiao Mobai didn't understand why, so he could only seriously sigh: "It really is a young hero."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan continued to eat with no expression on his face, not wanting to say a word.

Xiao Mobai was still curiously asking: "When did Zhang Shaoxia start practicing martial arts?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "...when I was young."

Xiao Mobai: "I think Zhang Shaoxia and Lu Shaoxia have a good relationship."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

"You two have known each other for a long time, right?" Xiao Mobai said with a friendly attitude, "How many years have you known each other?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Half a month..."

Xiao Mobai: "..."

Xiao Mobai seems to have begun to feel that these two senior brothers, no matter which one, are extremely difficult to get in touch with.

He took another deep breath and smiled at Zhang Xiaoyuan.

Ding.

"Affinity has increased!"

"The appearance has improved!"

Xiao Mobai: "Zhang Shaoxia... well, I'm older than you, how about calling you Xiao Yuan?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

I don't know why, but he always has a subtle and strange sense of rejection towards this Xiao Mobai, he doesn't like this Xiao Mobai, even though Xiao Mobai's appearance and temperament can be regarded as stunning beauty among the people he knows, he still Some don't like him.

When he heard Xiao Mobai calling him so affectionately, he felt goosebumps all over his body for no reason, and was about to refuse, but he didn't want Lu Zhaoming to take the first step, and already said: "No."

Xiao Mobai was startled: "No? Why?"

"I only call him Junior Brother." Lu Zhaoming emphasized, "I haven't called him by his first name yet."

He suddenly threw out such a sentence without thinking, not to mention Xiao Mobai, Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't understand at all.

Wen Tingting suddenly realized.

yes!No one else's senior brothers are called so close. How can an outsider who has met twice be called so close!

Wen Tingting, who had already called out the word Xiao Yuan, suddenly became frightened.

She has been calling Xiao Yuan for several days, she won't be targeted by the lonely star of the evil spirit.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stuffing the last mouthful of rice into his mouth.

Lu Zhaoming had already stood up.

"If you have nothing important to do, go ahead." He grabbed Zhang Xiaoyuan's arm and looked at Xiao Mobai, "I don't have time to chat."

Xiao Mobai: "..."

Wen Tingting even wanted to applaud Lu Zhaoming on the spot.

For some reason, she didn't like Xiao Mobai either.

I don't know if it's the light or what's the reason, but this person's face looks pretty good at times and looks normal at other times. It's more exciting than juggling face-changing.

And this man...

He is the reason why Puyang Dutong Hongxing cheated out of the wall!

The emperor is really a goofy dog ​​man!

right!The dog man's current man...wouldn't be a good man either!

80.

Zhang Xiaoyuan followed Lu Zhaoming out of the house, the elder brother held his hand all the way and brought him back to the room.

"Let's read the sword manual today." Lu Zhaoming directly skipped the matter just now, "If you are sleepy, you can also take a nap later."

Zhang Xiaoyuan asked: "Brother doesn't like Xiao Mobai?"

Lu Zhaoming nodded: "He is very strange."

Zhang Xiaoyuan himself can see the words above Xiao Mobai's head, he knows that Xiao Mobai is a strange person, but Lu Zhaoming can't see those words, the senior brother has always been not interested in the people around him, even the glib flower bird I don't feel anything, and it seems to be the first time I have said that I don't like someone.

Zhang Xiaoyuan muttered in a low voice: "I don't like him either, he's so weird."

"In the future, pay more attention to the person who came with him." Lu Zhaoming frowned slightly, as if he was thinking carefully about the name Zhao Chengyang called himself outside, "That one is called Huang...Huang Ayang."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan wanted to laugh very much.

Isn't Ayang called by Xiao Mobai to show his intimacy!That's really not his name!

"The Xuanying Guard of Tianji only obeys the order of the saint to be promoted." Lu Zhaoming said, "Puyang Jing respects him so much, who do you think he is?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan never thought that the elder brother would have noticed something.

He thought that Lu Zhaoming didn't care about the things around him, so he didn't understand the affairs of the world, and he didn't bother to lose his temper with people like Hua Liuque.

He didn't expect that senior brother had already seen Zhao Chengyang's identity, but he just didn't say it.

and many more.

Since the elder brother already knew the identity of Zhao Chengyang...

Zhang Xiaoyuan was a little frightened: "Eldest brother...you closed the door so hard yesterday that you almost hit him!"

Since the eldest brother knows that Zhao Chengyang is the emperor, it must be too crazy for him to close the door!

Lu Zhaoming blinked and said slowly, "But he is Huang Ayang now."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Brother is a little too much, but he likes it.

"He has been asking Fengji about the epidemic, and Pu Yangjing is also looking around for someone's whereabouts." Lu Zhaoming frowned slightly, "I'm very disturbed."

Just as Lu Zhaoming finished speaking, there was movement in the courtyard. From the sound, it seemed that Zhao Chengyang and the others had returned.

Lu Zhaoming frowned slightly, made a silent gesture to Zhang Xiaoyuan, leaned against the wall and jumped to the window, listening carefully to the conversation of several people in the courtyard.

The first person to speak was Qi Chaoyun: "Before you leave Beijing, you should have thought about the result today."

"It's been more than 20 years." Zhao Chengyang sighed softly, "I thought I finally had a brother..."

Pu Yangjing said directly: "Nothing is a good thing."

"Puyang." Zhao Chengyang was a little unhappy, "That's my elder brother."

Pu Yangjing: "It is also the culprit who can endanger the world."

His position was clear, from the very beginning he didn't care about the fate of the emperor's elder brother, he just wanted to keep Zhao Chengyang in his current position.

Zhao Chengyang sighed again.

"Forget it, anyway, he was gone 15 years ago." Zhao Chengyang paused for a moment, and then said, "Ah Yun, I want to build a tomb for him."

Qi Chaoyun agreed: "Yes."

But Pu Yangjing said again: "This action will easily increase the court's tongue."

Every word Pu Yangjing said was something that Zhao Chengyang didn't like to hear, Zhao Chengyang snorted heavily, and said: "Then I will go back tomorrow, and I will stay in the capital and never come out again. "

Pu Yangjing replied: "Yes."

There was silence outside, and after a while, hurried footsteps sounded, it seemed that Zhao Chengyang slammed the door heavily, Qi Chaoyun sighed in the courtyard, and said: "Puyang, why do you..."

Pu Yangjing said: "It doesn't matter, at least I say every word for him."

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't dare to breathe, at least Liuzhi understood his hint, and didn't tell Zhao Chengyang the current whereabouts of the second senior brother. His heart fell to the ground, and he didn't look at Lu until he heard Pu Yangjing and Qi Chaoyun leave one after another. Zhaoming called out in a low voice, "Senior Brother, did you hear that?"

Lu Zhaoming was a little surprised, nodded, and said, "It turns out that they are looking for the second junior brother."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Ah?!"

Wait, so the senior brother knows the identity of the second senior brother?

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "The second brother is... the emperor..."

Lu Zhaoming paused: "I seem to have forgotten to tell you."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan remembered that he had asked about Jiang Jianyu's life experience twice. Lu Zhaoming only answered his mother each time, and never mentioned anything else. It should not be that he forgot to tell him, but that he was habitually helping the second senior brother to conceal this matter. .

But think about it, no matter how the elder brother mentioned this matter, there is something wrong.

Junior brother, do you know that the second junior brother is the eldest brother of the emperor.

It's too weird.

"Master and uncle know what happened back then." Lu Zhaoming explained, "Second junior brother himself is also aware of his own background."

Zhang Xiaoyuan thought for a while, but only asked: "Then... what does the second senior brother think?"

Although he has tried to block Zhao Chengyang's clues to find the second senior brother, but if it is true, he does not know what the second senior brother thinks at all. matter of will?

Lu Zhaoming said: "He prefers the pleasures of the rivers and lakes."

Zhang Xiaoyuan understood.

"15 years is too long, and they seem to have found no useful clues." Lu Zhaoming said softly, "This is a good thing."

Zhang Xiaoyuan puffed out his chest, showing some unspeakable pride.

Praise him!He should be praised!

"Okay." Lu Zhaoming said, "It's time to memorize the sword manual."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan really hated reading this obscure sword manual.

Obviously every word is a word, but connected together... He has no idea what it means.

What was even more frightening was that Lu Zhaoming was still sitting next to him, asking him from time to time, he didn't dare to fish in troubled waters, it felt like he was back in his childhood when he was studying in a private school, if you didn't pay attention to the lecture, the master would just touch your palm.

He spent the whole afternoon in a daze, and finally it was time for dinner. Zhao Chengyang had already decided to leave tomorrow, and Pu Yangjing wanted to escort him back to the capital. Qi Chaoyun specially hosted a banquet in the Yamen to see him off—in fact, it was just a little bit better. For some, if Qi Chaoyun had to pay for it himself, he would never be able to invite guests.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was extremely happy for a while, but when it was time to eat, he looked up and saw Xiao Mobai clinging to Zhao Chengyang. Zhao Chengyang seemed to be very happy with his half-smile, while Puyang Jing stood aside with a dark face and said nothing. Wen Tingting slapped words out of his head like crazy, insulting men angrily, there is nothing good about it.

Only Zhang Xiaoyuan knew the real reason for Puyang Jing's gloomy face.

He was obviously not unhappy because Xiao Mobai was sticking to Zhao Chengyang, and there was another line of writing floating above his head at this moment.

"Today's newsletter: Yier San suspected of empathizing with Xiao Mobai, and intercepted a love letter from Wang Yuhou and Liu Shilang to Xiao Mobai."

"There is still no information about Xiao Mobai's background. This person deliberately approached the Holy One, which is extremely suspicious."

Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help looking at Xiao Mobai again.

How many people like him?

The words that popped out of his head in the afternoon were also very strange. Although Zhang Xiaoyuan saw that his appearance hadn't changed much, Wen Tingting seemed to think that he had suddenly become better looking. He would not use this strange talent to tease him. Someone else?

Does Zhao Chengyang know?

Zhang Xiaoyuan pinched his chin, feeling that the top of Zhao Chengyang's head was almost green.

81.

Early the next morning, before Zhang Xiaoyuan got up, Pu Yangjing had already escorted Zhao Chengyang and Xiao Mobai away.

Qi Chaoyun had sent the rewards from the family members of those rescued women back to the teacher's gate, all the troubles had left, Zhang Xiaoyuan was refreshed, and temporarily had no reason to stay in the county government office.

After confirming that Pu Yangjing and Zhao Chengyang had left Fengji County, Zhang Xiaoyuan approached the elder brother and expressed his eagerness to return to the division.

Of course Lu Zhaoming had no objection.

It was only half a day's journey from Fengji County back to the mountains, he bid farewell to Qi Chaoyun, Wen Tingting reluctantly led Pidun to send the two of them out of the city, but by evening, they had already reached the place.

The house in Shimen has not been built yet, Wang Henian finally has the money to hire local laborers to help, and the house is built with blue bricks and tiles. Zhang Xiaoyuan called Master from a distance, and then looked at the small courtyard that had just taken shape, feeling quite happy. Feeling full of pride.

Look, this is all the taels he earned!

They came back so suddenly, Wang Henian was very pleasantly surprised, but he hadn't seen him for a few days, he happily pulled Zhang Xiaoyuan to look again and again, always felt that the child had lost weight, then turned his eyes and caught a glimpse of Lu Zhaoming's Jiansui.

Wang Henian froze on the spot, and after a while he asked, "Zhaoming, where is the sword spike that my master gave you?"

Lu Zhaoming was startled, and said, "Jian Sui is too old..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Eldest brother can't speak too much!

Wang Henian raised a hand to stop what Lu Zhaoming wanted to say.

"Master, I know." His voice trembled, "You don't need to go any further."

She Shuyi came around from behind the piled stones in the yard, saw the two of them, couldn't help but also smiled, and asked, "Why are you back?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan had a sweet mouth, and it was inevitable that Lu Zhaoming would say something that would irritate his master, so he simply spoke first and said, "Of course I miss my master and uncle!"

She Shuyi was very helpful, so she also laughed: "It's a good thing to come back, but... there is still a big trouble."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was puzzled.

"The house is half built. When you come back now, I'm afraid there won't be a place where you can rest well." She Shuyi frowned slightly, and said, "I discussed with your master in the past few days, and I happened to come up with an idea today."

These days they just set up a few thatched huts to live with the day laborers. Wang Henian and She Shuyi didn't feel that way, Hualiuque couldn't take it anymore, and they also knew that Zhang Xiaoyuan had probably never experienced such a hardship, Zhang Xiaoyuan Should not be used to this kind of life.

Zhang Xiaoyuan blinked and asked, "What can I do?"

She Shuyi said: "I think in a few days, the martial arts conference will be held."

He glanced at Wang Henian, originally wanting to wait for Wang Henian to continue talking, but Wang Henian seemed to be still under shock, and had never heard their conversation at all, She Shuyi sighed, so he could only continue to explain.

"In recent years there have been no major events in the Jianghu. The martial arts conference is just a place where various sects compete to recruit disciples." She Shuyi said, "I have already written a letter of worship to Leader Pei. You brothers and sisters just took this letter of worship and went to the martial arts world. Take a look at the meeting."
