Xiao Han [Shooting Condor]

Guo Fu stared wide-eyed, looking at the person in front of her in disbelief. She raised the lantern in her hand, and the warm golden light lightly reflected Xie Yao's face, overlapping with the person in her memory. She couldn't help but blurted out happily: "Thank you... uncle?"

Xie Yao couldn't help laughing, "Why are you thanking me?"

Guo Fu was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was joking, and with a "puchi" smile, she hurriedly said, "Uncle Xie, you are finally willing to come and see me! Do my parents know that you have come to Xiangyang?"

Xie Yao looked at the sky, thought of what Guo Jing said during the day, and said to Guo Fu: "I have met your father before, and he knew that you sneaked out of the city, so he was a little angry. Fortunately, you met me at this moment, let's go together Go back."

When Guo Fu heard that Guo Jing was angry, she couldn't help taking two steps back, and said with a frown, "I don't want to go back, Daddy will definitely point at me and scold me."

Xie Yao lamented that time flies, Guo Fu has grown up in a blink of an eye, he just smiled and said, "Uncle will help you stop."

Guo Fu was very familiar with this sentence, when she made a mistake when she was a child, Guo Jing wanted to beat her, that's how Xie Yao comforted her.Guo Fu couldn't help but raised her eyes and smiled at him, "Uncle Xie, you are the best!"

The two returned to the manor side by side. The courtyard was brightly lit. Passing by servant girls saw Guo Fu, and they all nodded and bowed to address her as "Miss".She and Xie Yao walked through the rockery in the garden and came to the lobby of the flower hall. The Wu brothers were waiting at the door.

The two were overjoyed when they saw Guo Fu holding the lantern with a green hook in his hand, and they called out in unison: "Sister Fu!"

Xie Yao saw two young people approaching from left and right, so he had to take two steps back to the side.Wu Xiuwen stepped forward and asked, "Sister Fu, where did you go today? My brother and I searched outside the city, but we couldn't find any trace of you!" Although Wu Dunru didn't speak, he kept his eyes on Guo Fu, The concern is palpable.

"Brother Dawu, Brother Xiaowu, you couldn't find me, that's because I never left the city." Guo Fu was quite complacent when she said this, and continued to play with the lantern in her hand.

Wu Xiuwen hurriedly said: "Yes, Fumei, you are the smartest! It's raining in the city, where are you looking for fun?"

Guo Fu lightly fiddled with the candlelight of the lantern, but she didn't seem to hear it. Wu Xiuwen got anxious and moved closer to repeat it. Unexpectedly, he spoke in a whirlwind, and accidentally blew out the candlelight. , exposing the rough skeleton of branches.

"Brother Xiao Wu! You..." Guo Fu glared at him, stood up and looked around, "Where is Uncle Xie? I want to find Uncle Xie!"

Wu Dunru was stunned for a moment: "What Uncle Xie? Could it be... Uncle Xie who just came today?"

The three of them looked back, but Xie Yao, who was standing aside just now, had disappeared.

It turned out that Xie Yao saw these young people talking together, and he didn't want to disturb him, so he walked silently to the corridor, and happened to meet Guo Huang and his wife.

"Brother Yi, sister-in-law!"

Although Huang Rong is over 30 years old, she still has a beautiful appearance. Her eyes are extremely flexible and she holds a green dog-beating stick. Guo Fu's eyes are just like hers.

When Huang Rong saw him, she suddenly smiled, "Xie Xiandi, you are here."

Xie Yao felt strange, looked at Guo Jing, and said, "Brother Yi said you have some good news to tell me tonight. It's getting late now, can you tell me?"

When she heard this, she couldn't help but cast a sharp glance at Guo Jing: "I also said to surprise brother Xie Xian, why did you let him know first?"

Guo Jing lowered his head and smiled, and readily admitted: "It's my fault."

Xie Yao saw that they still had a close relationship after so many years, and he couldn't help but feel happy. He was aroused by Huang Rong's words, and asked, "Sister-in-law, don't make detours, why don't you tell me about the happy event?"

Huang Rong said: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore." She turned around and whispered some instructions to the passing servant, and the servant got the order and hurried to the west wing.

After a while, the servant brought a tall and thin middle-aged man over. This man had a round bun and was wearing a Taoist robe. His sleeves fluttered as he walked, and he had a messy beard on his face.At the beginning, Xie Yao only felt that this person had a kind face, but he couldn't remember who he was, so the middle-aged Taoist priest bowed to Huang Rong: "I pay my respects to Chief Huang."

Xie Yao was shocked as if struck by lightning, and blurted out, "Zhen Zhongcai?"

He had already removed his disguise at this time, the middle-aged Taoist turned his head and recognized him at a glance, his eyes widened, his mouth was tongue-tied, and a layer of mist formed in his eyes: "Xie little brother! You...you still alive?"

Hearing his address, Xie Yao couldn't help bowing his head and said shyly, "I'm not a little brother anymore." Zhen Zhong calmed down and sighed, "Yes, it's been almost 20 years since Yueyang left the ruined temple." He seemed Thinking of being greedy for life and afraid of death, when Xie Yao was accused by the world, he avoided the Taoist temple, and felt extremely guilty, and couldn't help but bow his head and remain silent.

Huang Rong and Guo Jing looked at each other and said with a smile, "Xie Xiandi, do you think this is good news?"

Zhen Zhongcai was finally found, and his apprentice also found an important witness in Yueyang City by the Dongting Lake, so no matter whether Elder Peng appeared or not, his grievances and grievances with the beggar gang can be written off!

Xie Yao couldn't help but raised his head and laughed loudly: "This is indeed good news!"

The four of them came to the flower hall to have a banquet, and Guo Fu and the Wu brothers also had dinner together.

The Wu brothers could see Xie Yao who was sitting at the head, and saw that his face was clean and bright, which was quite different from the ugly scarred face in the daytime.The surrounding lights were brightly lit, and he sat at the table, making him look even more handsome. If it wasn't for their age, the two of them would feel inferior.

The two brothers were connected with each other, and they hurriedly looked at Guo Fu, who was also looking at Xie Yao with joy in his eyes, and sweetly called, "Uncle Xie, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle Zhen."

Xie Yao smiled and nodded, and hurriedly let the three of them take their seats.

"Fu'er, you still know how to come back!" Guo Jing was furious when he saw Guo Fu, "You are a girl, you run around like crazy every day, what a shame..."

"Brother Yi, don't talk about her first." Xie Yao shook his head, "It's rare for me to see you every time, but every time I see you, you scold her. Are you deliberately embarrassing me?"

Guo Jing waved his hands again and again: "Brother Yao, I didn't mean that, don't think too much..." He was busy explaining, Huang Rong covered her mouth and laughed when she saw this, she leaned close to her daughter's ear, and whispered a few words in a whisper, both mother and daughter held back. Kaka couldn't help giggling together.

At the banquet, Zhen Zhongcai recounted in detail the acquaintance process with Xie Yao at the Dongting Lake that day. Xiao Fang didn't care if he didn't mention it. When he mentioned Song Zhen, he raised his sleeve and wiped his eyes, "Brother Song is an indomitable hero! Xiao Fang It was against the morality of our beggar gang to have the malicious intention of murdering and stealing. If he had killed brother Xie and seized the "Nine Yin Manual", in the end, old gang leader Hong would let him pay for his life if he knew it; The same is true in your hands."

Guo Fu's eyes widened and she exclaimed, "Uncle Xie, do you still have a wife?"

Zhen Zhongcai was rescued from the temple that day, and it was Xie Yao's wife who sent him on board to leave. Huang Rong and Guo Jing revealed all this.His mind turned, and he couldn't help but think of the woman under the moon wearing white clothes, as if the moon was covered by light clouds, and the snow fluttered like a flowing wind, it was really indescribable.Seeing this stunning beauty, his heart was pounding, and he spoke very uncomfortably. He thought that this woman's personality should be as gentle as her appearance, but unexpectedly because of his stuttering, he yelled at her all over the face. For Yao's sake, he might have beaten him up long ago with punches and kicks.

Zhen Zhongcai couldn't help but smile when he remembered the past, he looked at her face again, and asked with a smile: "Yes, Brother Xie, didn't Madam Zun come with you today?"

When they asked, Guo Huang and his wife were very embarrassed, Huang Rong frowned and said, "Okay, what are you doing asking about these personal matters?"

Xie Yao was startled for a moment, then sad again, and sighed with downcast eyes: "She has been dead for many years." His throat choked up, he picked up the wine glass at hand, raised his head and drank it dry, it turned into bitterness between his lips and teeth.

Guo Fu sat facing him, seeing every move of the other clearly, and seemed to empathize with him, her heart trembled, Qiqi Ai said: "Uncle Xie, don't be sad, it was Fu'er who asked the wrong question."

Zhen Zhongcai was also very embarrassed, and hurriedly followed Guo Fu's words: "Yes, yes, Zhen Zhongcai is not young but he is also like this little girl, talking nonsense..."

"It's okay." Xie Yao raised his hand to stop him, his complexion returned to normal, and smiled casually, "I've been used to it for so many years, and it's rare for us to get together today, why bother to say such disturbing words?" After finishing speaking, he picked up an altar on the table Wine, slap Kaifeng mud, and said loudly: "Come, come, let's drink, don't stop drinking!"

Guo Jing felt admiration, and made a toast to him, and said, "Brother Yao, please."

After drinking for three rounds, Zhen Zhongcai continued to talk about Elder Peng's evil deeds. Huang Rong and Guo Jing had heard Xie Yao say it before, but now hearing Zhen Zhongcai's story again, the couple were extremely angry.Elder Peng's behavior not only harmed others and himself, but also discredited the beggar gang.

Huang Rong threw the dog-beating stick on the ground and said angrily, "I shouldn't have expelled him from the Beggar Clan early in the first place, but I should have stayed here and tortured him!"

Guo Jing patted her hand and said: "Don't be angry, it's a good thing that this tumor was expelled early, otherwise how many 'Song Zhen' died?" After speaking, he looked at Xie Yao and asked, "Brother Yao, the matter of the beggar gang Although you are settled, what should you do if you are accused of beating your mentor and killing innocent people indiscriminately?"

Xie Yao pondered for a moment, then replied: "My teacher, Sun Buer, is not seriously injured. She can testify for me. It's just that the real murderer, De Luozhui, is still at large."

Huang Rong changed her mind and said, "Xie Xian, it's not as good as this, just this year, brother Jing and I are going to gather a group of heroes, hold a hero banquet at Dasheng Pass, and discuss a good strategy so that the Mongol Tartars won't dare to offend our Great Song Dynasty again. It is better to hit the sun than to choose a day, and take this opportunity to clarify your charges. According to what you said, the man in yellow at Baoqing Tea House, Brother Zhen Zhongcai, and Daoist Sun are all your witnesses, and Brother Jing and I are naturally on your side. The two sects will speak for you, so why worry about not being rehabilitated?"

Xie Yao was stunned for a moment, and said, "But the two instigators, De Luozhui and Elder Peng, cannot show up to confront them."

Huang Rong recalled the scene where Xie Yao was coerced in Chongyang Palace back then, and she smiled brightly: "It's just right! At the beginning, you let them take your dirty water, and you couldn't argue with it. Now, return it to him in the same way. Let's see if the heroes of the world are trustworthy." We hero Guo, we still believe in these two unknown villains!"

Guo Jing couldn't help being dumbfounded, but felt that his wife's method was really the best of both worlds, he nodded and said: "Brother Yao, you don't know, Lu Cheng and his wife also moved to Dashengguan to settle down in the early years, there is no Taihu Lujiazhuang in the Jianghu, there is only one Dashengguan Lujiazhuang. The land here is small, not as good as their Zhuangzi, so every year if there is an important matter, I will go to Lujiazhuang in Dashengguan. In this way, if you say a date, I will immediately spread the hero post."

Xie Yao has had this notoriety for nearly 20 years, and it has always been a serious concern for him.He didn't dare to show his true face to others casually, he didn't dare to tell his full name when he was walking in the rivers and lakes, and he went far away in Tianshan Mountain, all because of this incident.If there is such an opportunity, he will naturally not shirk it. After thinking for a while, he said: "Today is the seventh day of March, why not set the hero meeting on May [-]th. I will hurry up and find out if there is any Deluo to chase after these days." , Elder Peng's whereabouts, pass a letter to a few disciples by the way, let them go to the hero banquet together."

Several people discussed and agreed, and they all felt relieved.

Xie Yao wrote to Shentu Xingchong and Ding Yue respectively that night, telling them to remember to go to Yueyang to invite the witnesses from Baoqing Tea House.Cheng Ying, Hong Lingbo, even Yang Guo from the Ancient Tomb Sect, he also ordered someone to pass on a letter.

The next morning, when it was still dark, Xie Yao got on his horse, and Guo Huang and his wife sent him out of the city.

When they arrived at the Shili Pavilion outside the Qingshan Mountain, Xie Yao refused to let them continue to see each other off, and said goodbye with hands clasped together: "Brother Yi, sister-in-law, May [-]th, let's meet again at Dashengguan!"
