Jianghu are all masters

216.

Almost at the moment Zhang Xiaoyuan grabbed Lu Zhaoming's arm, Xiao Mobai had already turned around, and happened to see the two behind him.

It's just that he obviously didn't want to see them very much. When he greeted them, his smile was a little bit awkward, but he still waved to the two of them and said, "Lu Shaoxia, Zhang Shaoxia, what a coincidence."

Zhang Xiaoyuan held Lu Zhaoming's hand firmly, for fear that he would suddenly attack Xiao Mobai cruelly. He felt that the senior brother was really weird today, and the senior senior brother's style of work was exaggerated on weekdays. Why was he full of random thoughts from yesterday to today? After persecuting the second senior brother, he wanted to break Xiao Mobai's leg after a while...

He smiled with Xiao Mobai and said "what a coincidence", while trying to wink at Xiao Mobai, telling Xiao Mobai to leave quickly.

But Xiao Mobai obviously didn't understand his hint, instead he took the initiative to ask Zhang Xiaoyuan: "What are you two doing here?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was about to answer, but Lu Zhaoming opened his mouth one step ahead of him, and said coolly: "It has nothing to do with you."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Xiao Mobai was taken aback, he was really good at observing words and expressions, he could tell at a glance that Lu Zhaoming was in a very unhappy mood, but he didn't know why Lu Zhaoming was angry, he didn't offend him today, he couldn't figure out why Lu Zhaoming was angry... ...Could it be that the jealousy of the past few days has been eaten up to now?Xiao Mobai frowned slightly, carefully scrutinizing the look on Lu Zhaoming's face—like, he must be jealous.

He coughed lightly, and when he looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan again, his smile grew stronger for a moment, almost as if he wanted to get close to Zhang Xiaoyuan and leaned forward, saying: "Xiao Yuan~ What are you doing here?"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was met with extremely hostile gaze from Lu Zhaoming. Even Zhang Xiaoyuan was a little at a loss, not understanding why Xiao Mobai suddenly became so intimate with him.

It's just that what they came out to do today is not a confidential matter, of course it's okay to tell Xiao Mobai, not to mention he is also curious about why Xiao Mobai appeared here.

He can't see his purpose in Xiao Mobai's head, it seems that when facing Xiao Mobai's so-called "citizens", or even the descendants of "citizens", his strange ability will fail from time to time.He thought that Xiao Mobai didn't know martial arts, and the shops in Zhujian Villa only sold all kinds of weapons. Could it be that Xiao Mobai found a new sweetheart again, and he didn't know how many times he had scored, so he came here specially to buy gifts for his sweetheart of?

Zhang Xiaoyuan was full of curiosity, and said: "We bought the sword for my second senior brother, Young Master Xiao, why are you here?"

Xiao Mobai sighed for a long time, with a sad expression on his face, he even looked up to the sky, and said: "To tell you the truth, I brought Brother Huang here this time."

Zhang Xiaoyuan paused: "Is that brother Huang I know?"

Xiao Mobai asked him back: "Which brother Huang is there?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Xiao Mobai sighed again, and said: "It's fine if he asked me to act with him, but now he said that his Jingjing is going to have a birthday, and asked me to come out to help him choose gifts, it's really deceiving people too much, it's too much. "

Zhang Xiaoyuan paused, and asked: "Jingjing...Master Puyang?"

What kind of affectionate name is this? It's too scary.

"It sounds unbelievable." Xiao Mobai sighed, "He asked me to choose gifts, but I don't know anything about these weapons. Can't he leave this matter to other people? I think Qi Chaoyun is more reliable than me. Spectrum."

Zhang Xiaoyuan thought about what Wen Tingting had said, feeling a little inexplicably embarrassed.

Zhao Chengyang didn't ask Qi Chaoyun for help, maybe he searched both Xiao Mobai and Qi Chaoyun, and asked them to help him find a way to choose a gift, and he made the final decision himself.

Xiao Mobai looked at the two of them, as if he had found a savior, he was a little overjoyed, and said: "Xiao Yuan, you came at the right time, and you want to buy a sword, why don't you help me choose one?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't think too much, nodded and agreed: "Okay."

Lu Zhaoming's face seemed even uglier.

Xiao Mobai was very happy, he took Zhang Xiaoyuan's arm affectionately, and wanted to take him to the shop. Zhang Xiaoyuan originally held Lu Zhaoming's hand in case he suddenly attacked Xiao Mobai, but Lu Zhaoming suddenly took him He broke free and grabbed Zhang Xiaoyuan's wrist instead.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was taken aback, and said: "Brother, you—"

Lu Zhaoming thought about it, and felt that this was not right, so he turned to the other side of Zhang Xiaoyuan, looked at Xiao Mobai, saw that Xiao Mobai did not respond, then stretched out his hand, and opened Xiao Mobai expressionlessly. hand, but did not explain, he stood on this side and held Zhang Xiaoyuan's hand.

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Xiao Mobai: "..."

The three of them stood in a strange stalemate outside the main entrance of Zhujian Villa's shop. After a long while, Zhang Xiaoyuan asked with difficulty: "Brother, what's wrong?"

Lu Zhaoming looked at Xiao Mobai with some hostility, but he didn't speak, anyway, even if he didn't speak, Zhang Xiaoyuan knew what he was thinking.

He just stared at Xiao Mobai, a line of words appeared on his head.

"I do not like him."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was a little helpless, he coughed lightly, and said, "Brother, we all have to buy swords anyway, so let's just go in and have a stroll, it won't take much time."

Xiao Mobai didn't know what Lu Zhaoming was thinking, so naturally he didn't know that Zhang Xiaoyuan was talking to Lu Zhaoming, he felt a little strange, but couldn't help but joked, saying: "I'm afraid Lu Shaoxia is not good enough."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was startled, before he had time to speak, Lu Zhaoming let go of his hand, walked in with a cold face, and said, "Don't you want to buy a sword, hurry up."

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked at the top of the elder brother's head, but it was empty again, and he couldn't see anything.

He had no choice but to follow into that shop. This shop was much larger than the previous one. The shop clerk greeted them and asked who wanted to buy swords, and brought out suitable swords from the shop for them. look.

There are quite a lot of good swords in this shop, Zhang Xiaoyuan quickly picked out the sword suitable for the second senior brother, he asked the store clerk to keep the sword safe and put it in a brocade box, thinking of giving this sword to the second senior brother after returning to the master's gate Senior brother, while remembering what Xiao Mobai said just now—is senior senior brother really jealous?He couldn't help but look back, and saw Lu Zhaoming leaning against the wall, as if he had regained his former composure and composure, and there was a long paragraph of extremely familiar words floating above his head...

It is the familiar Shimen sword manual.

Although I don't know why the senior brother is memorizing the sword manual at this time... But the senior senior brother who can memorize the sword manual is at least a normal senior senior brother.

Zhang Xiaoyuan turned his head again, and began to concentrate on helping Xiao Mobai pick up the sword.

Xiao Mobai was propping his chin, thinking seriously: "Since it's a gift, shouldn't it be better?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Swords that are used as accessories, there are quite a few small shops."

He whispered a few words to the shop assistant next to him, and the shop assistant quickly brought many swords that could only be used for decoration, some were hollowed out and carved from beautiful jade, and some were studded with jewels. It's amazing, it's full of jewels, and it looks really beautiful.

But Zhang Xiaoyuan just wanted to hold his little purse tightly.

He looked at it for a while, then turned his head and asked to understand: "Young Master Xiao, Puyang...cough, does Jingjing like this kind of flashy sword?"

He wanted to bluntly say that they were buying swords for Pu Yangjing in front of the store clerk. It didn't seem very good, so he forcibly changed his words, and followed Xiao Mobai's name with some awkwardness, but before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a clang beside him, He was startled, turned his head and realized that the senior brother who was still carrying the sword manual behind his back just now came over at some point, picked up a sword on the table, pulled out some, looked at it, and suddenly returned the sword back to its sheath , the sword clashed against the scabbard, and he said blankly, "Good sword."

That doesn't sound like a compliment at all.

And Zhang Xiaoyuan was only glad that the sword in Lu Zhaoming's hand was not the jade sword brought up later, otherwise, with the strength of the senior brother, the sword might be broken on the spot, and Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he would definitely not be able to afford the sword.

Xiao Mobai looked at Lu Zhaoming's actions, and suddenly murmured: "I think...Jingjing might break this kind of sword."

Zhang Xiaoyuan deeply agrees.

People who practice martial arts should still prefer practical swords. It is hard to imagine that Pu Yangjing would like such flashy things.

Zhang Xiaoyuan said: "Then let's look at other things?"

Xiao Mobai lay down on the table dispirited, and complained again: "Why should I choose? What does it have to do with me? If I can't choose, what will I take back to do business? It's so annoying, I really want to leave the capital."

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt a little strange: "Young Master Xiao, isn't Jingjing's birthday still half a year away? You don't have to be so anxious."

Xiao Mobai: "...More than half a year?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded.

Xiao Mo stood up bluntly: "I'll go back to find that dog emperor first... Cough, I'll find Brother Huang."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan watched Xiao Mobai run out the door, then looked at the table full of swords and the displeased elder brother, he thought for a moment, then asked the shopkeeper: "Do you have short swords here?"

"Of course!" the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Young Master, wait, I'll send someone to get it right away."

If Zhang Xiaoyuan remembers correctly, in addition to carrying a sword with him, Lu Zhaoming also used to hide a dagger-length dagger on his body in case of emergencies. Since he bought a sword for the second senior brother this time, he might as well take this opportunity to Treat this short sword as a return gift for his birthday that day, and give it to the elder brother.

Lu Zhaoming frowned and asked him, "What do you see the dagger doing?"

Before Zhang Xiaoyuan could answer, he saw two lines of large characters on Lu Zhaoming's head.

"He also wants to give the dagger to the second junior brother."

"I am not happy."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "...Brother, you are really weird today."

Before he had time to ask more questions, out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of someone stepping into the shop, and the shopkeeper who was still standing beside them suddenly widened the smile on his face a bit, greeted him almost obsequiously, and said: "Why did your old man come here in person?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan turned his head to look, and saw an old man with a childlike face and a kind face standing by the door, followed by a few escorts and guards, he looked rich and noble, not like an ordinary person.

The old man smiled and said: "This is an urgent matter, so I naturally have to come here in person."

Ding.

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked over the man's head.

"Tang Henghuai, the eunuch in charge of the chief of ceremonies."

The few numbers gave him goosebumps.

There were a few rustling sounds of the cloth in his ears, and he was pulled back, just as he saw Lu Zhaoming put his hand under the sword lattice of the saber, protecting him behind his back.

Zhang Xiaoyuan asked in a low voice after a while, "Brother, do you know who he is?"

Lu Zhaoming didn't have the ability to see other people's identities anytime, anywhere. After he finished speaking, he was worried that Lu Zhaoming would really pull out his sword, so he nervously put his hand on Lu Zhaoming's hand, and lightly revealed some The sword was pressed back.

Lu Zhaoming didn't resist, he just stared at that person closely and spoke in a low voice.

"I know."
