The gentleman is to blame

Xifu, Lingfeng Pavilion.

Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui rushed to Lingfeng Pavilion early in the morning.Lingfeng Pavilion is brilliant and majestic, it seems that it is not comparable to ordinary small sects.

Song Huaizhen once thought it was funny. During the heyday of Taixuan Mountain, immortals came out in large numbers and were closely related to the imperial court. Although they are still supported by the Daqi royal family, they still cannot resist the decline of the entire sect of cultivating immortals.

If in the prehistoric period, I and Xie Nangui appeared in the martial arts family as disciples of the immortal sect, they were both first-class distinguished guests. Even the imperial court at that time had to show respect to the disciples of the immortal sect, so there would be no need for invitations.

Nowadays, there are more and more martial arts sects. I think the Immortal Cultivation Family used to look down on those who wield knives and guns without spiritual power, but now most of the remaining Cultivation sects have either transformed into martial arts families, or simply disappeared.

Most of the few immortals are like their masters, who live in seclusion all the year round and almost never go out.The spiritual energy is getting thinner and thinner, and there are fewer and fewer people with spiritual power in the sky. Immortals will only become rarer and rarer in the future. After many years, I am afraid that Taixuan Mountain will become a pure martial arts sect.

It's really unpredictable.

After giving the letter to the gatekeeper, Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui waited at the gate of Lingfeng Pavilion.

After a while, I saw a servant and the janitor running over in a hurry, saying, "My master has an invitation, please come in, both of you."

Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui looked at each other, it seemed that Mei Jiu's letter was really useful.

The two of them followed the young man to the main hall, and saw a middle-aged man with a fat body and a smile on his face.Dress luxuriously but unassumingly, like an ordinary businessman in the martial arts world.

The middle-aged man excitedly said, "I'm Lin Yizhi, the master of Lingfeng Pavilion in Xifu, benefactor Zhou, is everything okay?"

Song Huaizhen said, "Zhou Xi, Zhou Xi is no longer here."

Lin Yizhi's eyes turned red immediately after hearing this, "Young Master Zhou once saved someone Lin's life. We had some correspondence with each other many years ago, but since then the letters have become less and less. I am also to blame, I have been busy with Lingfeng Pavilion these years, so I didn’t go to Pengcheng again.”

Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui saw Lin Yizhi was so sad, all three of them were speechless for a moment.

Lin Yizhi looked at Song Huaizhen and said, "Is the young master an old friend of the benefactor?"

Song Huai really didn't know Zhou Xi, but he couldn't deny it right now, so he nodded involuntarily.

"The two of you are exhausted, Lin will stop bothering you now, you two will rest first, and we will talk about the dinner if you have something to do. Afterwards, Lin will spend the Hibiscus Festival with his wife, please forgive me for the poor reception." Lin Yizhi Said amiably.

Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui lived in Lingfeng Pavilion.

Song Huaizhen was very tired from the journey, and fell asleep as soon as he arrived in the room.Sure enough, the seal was released, and he spent a lot of spiritual power to suppress his grievances every day, and even his body became weak.

The seal has just been released, and there is not much resentment overflowing. Song Huaizhen can still use spiritual power to suppress the resentment every day. If there is more and more resentment in the future, and he happens to use spiritual power, it will be really bad .Speaking of which, there was an ominous premonition, and I always felt that I was not far from that situation.

After Song Huaizhen woke up, he heard someone knock on the door, opened the door, and a bright girl appeared in front of him, wearing a light pink dress and combing her hair. When she saw Song Huaizhen, she lowered her body slightly and said, "Master, you have been sleeping for a long time. , Master invited you and another young master to a dinner party."

Song Huaizhen nodded and said, "I'll call Xie Nangui and ask the girl to lead the way."

The girl nodded, and then said, "I am sent by the Pavilion Master to serve the two distinguished guests, just call me Wei Ai."

Song Huaizhen smiled, "How is the night, the night is still young, and the chanting is so powerful that it is still young."

Looking at Song Huaizhen, Wei Ai blushed a little, and said, "I don't know what you mean."

Song Huaizhen shook his head, "It's just a nice name for Miss Weiai."

Song Huaizhen went out with the girl and asked Xie Nangui to have a banquet together.

During the dinner, Lin Yizhi and his wife were already waiting for Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui to return.Lin Yizhi said, "Have you both rested? If there is anything unfamiliar about our Lingfeng Pavilion, you can ask Weiai."

Song Huaizhen thanked, "Thank you for your hospitality, everything is fine."

Xie Nangui also said, "Lingfeng Pavilion has beautiful scenery, and the owner of the pavilion has become famous in just a few years by himself, which is really extraordinary."

Lin Yizhi smiled, and said, "I still have to thank Zhou Xi, the benefactor of that day, for saving his life." After speaking, his expression was a little sad, and Lin Yizhi slowed down, "By the way, you two, this is my servant. People, Lu Youning. Now that the dog and the little girl have gone to escort, I'm afraid I won't be able to receive the two little friends."

Mrs. Lu is very similar to Lin Yizhi, who is fat in middle age, with a somewhat affluent body shape. Like Lin Yizhi, she has a big face, gentle and honest complexion, and looks like a husband and wife.

Song Huai sincerely said that Mrs. Lu and Lin Yizhi look like siblings.Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui are juniors, they both politely called Mrs. Lu.

Lu Youning asked, "I heard from Yizhi that you two are Zhou Xi, Mr. Zhou's old friend? I also want to thank Mr. Zhou for saving my husband's life that day."

Both Song Huaizhen and Lin Yizhi were a little embarrassed, after all, neither of them knew Zhou Xi, nor did they know how Mei Jiu used the word "old friend" so naturally.

Lin Yizhi said, "Benefactor treats people with the utmost kindness, indeed, destiny is unfair."

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lu patted Lin Yizhi on the back immediately, and said, "Don't be sad, Husband, your benefactor must have already passed away to the Land of Ultimate Bliss."

Song Huaizhen had never seen a husband and wife getting along very much, and felt that Pavilion Master Lin and his wife were so affectionate, so he quietly said to Xie Nangui, "They have such a good relationship!"

Xie Nangui didn't take it seriously, "You have never met my parents."

During the meeting, Lin Yizhi talked a lot about his past as a dartman in the past few years. It was also thrilling. He narrowly escaped death. Lin Yizhi has an easy-going personality, a martial artist background, and his speech is very quack, but not only does it not make people feel annoying, but it is humorous and cute .Song Huaizhen rarely met such a person, and was fascinated by the stories.

Mrs. Lin was very quiet, only cheering for her husband occasionally.

Song Huaizhen and Lin Yizhi, one has no father and no mother, and the other has not lived with his parents for a few years. At this moment, with the owner and wife of Lingfeng Pavilion, they have found a home they are not familiar with, but they are happy in their hearts. Feel.

After the banquet, Xie Nangui and Song Huaizhen thanked Lin Yizhi and Mrs. Lu, and went back to their rooms.

Seeing nothing to do, Song Huaizhen ran to find Xie Nangui and asked him to go out at night.Knocked on the door, but no one responded for a long time, strange, where can this Xie Nangui go?Randomly wandering around in the courtyard, I saw Xie Nangui having a happy conversation with Wei Ai, he really looked like a combination of a handsome young master and a beautiful maid.

Song Huaizhen felt that it was inconvenient to disturb him, and was about to go out by himself, when he heard, "Sir, stop." Song Huaizhen turned around and found that it was Wei Ai, the little girl blushed again when she saw him, Song Huaizhen said helplessly, I am a Taoist priest There are no flowers on the face, so why blushing.

Song Huaizhen walked over and said, "Miss Weiai is looking for me, is there something wrong?"

Wei Ai hurriedly shook his head, then ran away in a little panic.Song Huaizhen looked at a loss, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing this scene, Xie Nangui waved his folding fan and smiled, "I didn't expect Brother Huaizhen, but it really is."

Song Huaizhen said helplessly, "Don't forget to half-talk your speech."

Xie Nangui nodded, and then said, "Xie knows."

Song Huaizhen waited carefully for the second half of Xie Nangui's sentence, and found that there was no more words for a long time, so he said helplessly, "Brother Nangui, why don't you even tell me the beginning next time."

Xie Nangui shook his head, clapped his palms with a fan, and said leisurely, "I don't want to."

Song Huaizhen knew that he rarely said Xie Nangui, so he quickly changed the subject, "Brother Nangui would like to go out with Zaixia."

"Today happens to be Hibiscus Festival, and there will be a night market in the evening."

"No wonder there are a lot of hibiscus placed in the yard today, but unfortunately I fell asleep again in the afternoon, or else I could go around in the afternoon. But it's also good to appreciate the hibiscus under the lights at night, let's go."

Xifu is bigger than Pengcheng and Haiyu. Although it is not the capital city, it is really a big city of Daqi Dynasty.The last time Song Huaizhen went out was to go to the Western Regions. The Western Regions have different sentiments, but the scale is so large and the population is so densely populated. I really haven't really appreciated it very much.In addition, today is Hibiscus Festival, the street is very lively.

There were many girls on the street wearing hibiscus on their heads, Song Huai was really surprised, "Brother Nangui, why do some girls wear hibiscus on their heads? I see some men are also holding hibiscus in their hands."

"The old customs of Xifu, wearing it can bless you for a long time."

Song Huaizhen wondered, "It can still be like this!"

Xie Nangui said, "You can try it too."

Song Huai really thought about it, picked off a hibiscus flower, and held the hibiscus flower in his hand.Said, "I've been divination in the past few days, and it's really not going well, and I urgently need blessings now."

Xie Nangui opened the folding fan to cover his lips and chin, with a sly smile in his eyes. "It is said that wearing hibiscus on the head contains much more blessings than holding it in the hand." After finishing speaking, he took out the hibiscus flower from Song Huaizhen's hand with the other hand that was not holding the folding fan, and kept it hidden from under his Taoist hat. The brunette part.

"The hibiscus is blooming, and everything is going well." There was also a hint of a smile in the voice.

There was a candied haws seller on the street, Song Huaizhen liked it very much, and bought two bunches on his own initiative.With a bunch in his left hand and a bunch in his right, he asked with a smile on his face, "Brother Nangui, I'll treat you to candied haws." He said in his heart, if Xie Nangui likes it, that's fine, but if he doesn't, he can still eat two bunches.

Speaking of which, Song Huaizhen has little travel experience, he doesn't know about the Hibiscus Festival, and he is not very familiar with candied haws. The last time he ate it was brought down the mountain for himself by his senior brother when he was a child.So Song Huai really didn't have it at all. Two grown men, each with a candied haws, walked side by side, and one of them was wearing a hibiscus flower on his head.How strange.

Xie Nangui didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking whether he should eat or not.He didn't speak, and Song Huaizhen didn't taste good, so he was quiet for a moment, nodded, and took a bunch.

After the last time in Pengcheng, the immortal Gaotu with spiritual power and the head disciple of the Taixuan Mountain Medical Sect walked back to the inn with their shoulders linked.This time in Xifu, the two enjoyed the hibiscus festival with a candied haws in each hand.

Originally, some girls saw Xie Nanhui eager to give it a try, but seeing this situation, they all understood it, and basically took a detour. They were bold and aggressive, and even ran over to take a look.

Xie Nangui was in a hurry, so he dragged Song Huaizhen away from the night market without saying a word.

Song Huaizhen was eating candied haws, so he didn't know his way, so he was dragged away in a daze.
