Temperament

The Martial Arts Hall was the place he would come to every day unless he was away from home. It was tall and spacious.

Push open the two heavy doors, under the moonlight shining through the two rows of windows on the high wall, you can see a big black character "Wu" engraved on the opposite wall, which looks even more impressive in the dark light of the night Solemn and majestic.

A row of long weapon racks are placed against the walls on the left and right sides, and the racks are equipped with knives, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, and spears.

This is where he sweats and fights hard.Perhaps only here can the heart surrounded by irritability and frustration find a trace of peace.

Zhuo Tianyi copied a long spear from the weapon rack, set up a posture in the unmanned hall of the Martial Arts Hall, fought a whole routine, and then replaced it with a battle-axe, and then all weapons such as spears, axes, whips, etc. The weapon on the rack was finally replaced with the Mo Dao, which is as tall as a person and weighs several tens of catties, which few people practiced. After some chopping and stabbing, the sullen feeling in my heart was finally exhausted.

Throwing the knife, Zhuo Tianyi pointed his toes on the ground, leaped across the wall, and with the help of the wall, jumped across the entire martial arts hall to the opposite wall, and repeated.After going back and forth twice, he climbed onto a beam that was [-] feet above the ground.

He sat down on the beam, with his back against the center post, with one leg bent and the other hanging down.Looking down from this angle, everything in the Martial Arts Hall is within sight.There are more than 100 futons spread out on the ground in front of the hall, which is the place where all the disciples of the Zhuo family in Jinyang practice their internal skills, and the large open space behind is where they practice martial arts.

At this moment, the Martial Arts Hall was empty, but Zhuo Tianyi seemed to see their figure jumping, jumping, turning, and falling together. He liked this place, it made him feel full of strength, and the eternal martial spirit in a man's heart .

But he didn't like looking down from this angle, which meant he'd shut himself off from his favorite place down there, in this dark little place.

Moving his eyes from the bottom to the top, Zhuo Tianyi looked at the dark roof in front of him and relaxed his body.This is the first time he came to the beams of this mansion. The last time he was on the beams was more than ten years ago, when he was still in the old house. The specific reason has been forgotten, but the feeling of loneliness and helplessness has lasted for a long time. stay in the bottom of my heart.

Zhuo Tianyi closed his eyes, smelled the smell of dust in the air, and the unique smell of wooden beams in summer, and fell into meditation.

I don't know how long it took, the door was pushed open again, and a person walked in, looked at the scattered weapons all over the ground, and shouted: "Tianyi, Tianyi!"

Zhuo Tianyi opened his eyes, stood up and looked down, the man walked a few steps, turned his face to look around, then raised his head, looked straight up, and said with a smile: "Good boy, let's get on the beam again!" !"

As soon as the words fell, he lifted his feet and walked a few steps quickly, jumped up lightly, touched his toes on the weapon rack, and like a gull, he flew straight to the upper row of windows on the opposite wall, and then jumped directly onto the window sill. The beam landed on the beam next to the center post behind Zhuo Tianyi.

"Uncle Ninth Master," Zhuo Tianyi called out without turning his head, "Kungfu has advanced to another level, Zhuomen Qinggong, you are always the best."

"Stinky boy, you're not righteous enough. You don't want to drink with me when you come back. You just want to go back to the house to be with your beauty!" Gu Qingyang also followed his example, sitting on the beam with his back leaning on the central pillar.In the darkness, he raised his arms back and passed a wine jar, "Here, the drunken immortals of Yuefeng Building!"

Zhuo Tianyi reached out to take it, pulled out the plug, sniffed it, raised his neck and took a big gulp, before saying, "Master Ninth Uncle, how do you know I'm here?"

Gu Qingyang drank a big sip of wine from the jar in his hand, and laughed when he heard this, "I just had a drink with Senior Brother Qin in the Yuefeng Building, and when I returned to the mansion and heard that you were back, I wanted to put you back from being gentle I dragged you out to have a drink or two in the village, but when I arrived at the gate of your courtyard, the gatekeeper said you had come out, but I couldn’t find anyone in the study, so I came here to try my luck, and I was really caught!”

Zhuo Tianyi didn't speak, just drank in sips.

Seeing that he was silent, Gu Qingyang sighed: "You, you are still the same as when you were a child. When you encounter things that you can't handle, you will be on the beam!" After taking a sip of wine, he smiled and recalled: "I remember one time, you took your father The jade unicorn that was going to be sold to Fengyunbao was smashed, your father beat you up, you stole a roast chicken from the kitchen and climbed onto the beam of the main house, when the big guy was looking for you and was about to die, you stood there Jumping on the beam and swearing at people, throwing the gnawed chicken bones down, it's enough trouble!"

There was silence behind him, only the sound of gurgling wine pouring into his throat, Gu Qingyang turned his head and glanced back, "Tell me, who is the hero who drove you to the top this time?"

After a long while, I heard a sullen voice, "Uncle Jiu, don't mention it, it's boring."

"Haha!" Gu Qingyang laughed out loud, "I didn't expect that someone could force you to be so temperless, I'm impressed!"

Zhuo Tianyi drank with his head depressed, and in the darkness, he could only hear the sound of his drunken sorrow.

"Hey, drink slowly, don't pour it down!" Gu Qingyang laughed enough, and then said again: "I know it even if you don't tell me, it's the one in your room, right?"

Zhuo Tianyi still didn't make a sound, Gu Qingyang smiled clearly, "That guy in your room is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, he can push you to the top, so you must not be very polite to him, right?"

Zhuo Tianyi lowered his head, "I was not very polite at the beginning, but I didn't expect..." He sighed, became irritable again, raised his head and took another big mouthful.

"You twisted it?" Gu Qingyang questioned.

Zhuo Tianyi paused, then nodded after a while, and briefly told Gu Qingyang the ins and outs of the matter.

After hearing this, Gu Qingyang sighed, "You, you are so smart that you were confused for a while, your way of doing things can make a hundred or eighty Jiang Moyans subdue you, but when you deal with Shen Qinglan, I'm afraid it's going to be the opposite. Fetch water."

Hearing this, Zhuo Tianyi put down the bent leg, sat up, and turned to look at Gu Qingyang, "Then tell me, how can we win his heart?"

"You really want him that much?" Gu Qingyang asked back.

"I..." Zhuo Tianyi was at a loss for words, and after a while, he raised the wine jar and took a big mouth-to-mouth gulp before he said bitterly, "I just can't swallow Meng Huaiyuan's breath!"

"Then you still let Jiang Moyan go?"

"Why keep him? My heart is gone, what's the use of keeping him?" Zhuo Tianyi said with a sigh of relief.

"Then Shen Qinglan's heart is not on you either, so why do you want to win it?" Gu Qingyang said with a hint of teasing.

"I just don't accept it! Why should my people run away, but his people from Meng Huaiyuan came back to suffer voluntarily and self-consciously, and kept saying that it was for the Meng family!" Zhuo Tianyi became more and more irritable as he spoke, grabbed the wine jar and took several gulps. , "I can't hear that!"

"You, you, you are still exactly the same as when you stood on the beam and threw the gnawed chicken bones to adults. Nothing has changed. Then Jiang Moyan has been with you for so long, it seems that you are really similar to a thing, a bit It didn't work as it should have." Gu Qingyang shook his head and sighed.

"Gu Qingyang!" Zhuo Tianyi was so angry when he heard that, "You came to me to ridicule me? I grew up with you, and this is how you treat your brother? Add insult to injury!"

"Zhuo Tianyi, I'm your real uncle, don't be big or small, show me some respect." Gu Qingyang warned slowly.

"Master?!" Zhuo Tianyi snorted coldly.

Gu Qingyang put away his joking thoughts, turned his legs to sit in the same direction as Zhuo Tianyi, "Boy, listen, this human heart is not a thing, let alone the playthings you used to play when you were young. Someone robbed you and then robbed someone else. It's fine if you come and go." Gu Qingyang taught earnestly, "If you want to win people's hearts, you must first lose your own."

"Loose your heart first?" Zhuo Tianyi repeated, turning to look at Gu Qingyang, "What do you mean?"

"Loose your own heart first." Gu Qingyang put the wine jar on the beam beside him, looked at Zhuo Tianyi, "You can only gain if you give up."

Zhuo Tianyi remained silent, turned around, thoughtful.

Gu Qingyang said to himself, "Then Shen Qinglan is stubborn, just like you, if you want to twist him, it's like twisting yourself, can you twist it? Besides, this person is very blind. Hit the south wall and never look back. If you follow him hard, you will only lose both."

"How do you know that he has such a temperament?" Zhuo Tianyi asked. During the meal, Shen Qinglan also heard that she met Gu Qingyang at the South Street branch, but she just said that she met Gu Qingyang by chance, without going into details.

Gu Qingyang immediately recounted the matter of hearing Shi Qiming and Shen Qinglan arguing at the South Street branch, and finally said with a smile: "Speaking of which, if you can really take his heart away, it's really a good thing for you, I think He is extremely serious and responsible in his work, Shi Qiming refused to pay the bills and even made insulting remarks, he did not show timidity at all, he just argued hard."

Zhuo Tianyi smiled wryly, "It's not for me, it's all for that Meng Huaiyuan." After hearing Gu Qingyang's surprise, he explained: "I used Meng Huaiyuan to coerce him into doing the accounts."

Gu Qingyang smiled and raised the wine jar to drink.

"However, you said that Shi Qiming refused to pay the account, and even spoke rudely?!" Zhuo Tianyi suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Yeah, the words are still ugly." Gu Qingyang put down the wine jar and looked at him, "Why, Shen Qinglan didn't complain to you?"

Zhuo Tianyi was so angry that he raised his head and drank a few mouthfuls of mulled wine.

Seeing him like that, Gu Qingyang understood, shook his head, and added fuel to the fire: "It seems that in his mind, you are just like that Shi Qiming. Maybe it's not as good as that." After thinking about it, he said: "Say Maybe, he was in a hurry to go to Shi Qiming's place to take anger, just to pass this anger on to you, why did you force him to do things for you?"

A few light words made Zhuo Tianyi so excited that he drank all the remaining wine in the wine jar, and finally threw the empty wine jar from the beam with a snap, and said through gnashing of teeth, "Shi Qiming! I'm waiting, sooner or later I want you to look good!"

"For this matter, you want to move Shi Qiming?" Gu Qingyang didn't think it was a big deal when he watched the excitement.

"No, Shi Qiming, I've wanted to touch him for a long time, and Shen Qinglan had the same purpose for making the accounts." Zhuo Tianyi immediately talked about finding out the problem with the accounts of the South Street branch.

Gu Qingyang sighed with a smile: "You kid, you use your knife to kill people and make the best use of it." After taking a sip of wine, he said seriously: "Anyway, the orphan of the eldest brother, don't go too far."

"I know."

……

"Uncle, you said 'you must win people's hearts, lose your own', did you do it yourself?" Zhuo Tianyi asked suddenly after being silent for a while.

"..." Gu Qingyang remained silent, then sighed, "If I can really do it, why don't I have to go to Siguotingguan for three years?"

"You were..."

"Don't mention it, just like you are now, very self-righteous."

"...What do you mean?" Zhuo Tianyi hiccupped, his tongue was a little big, "I'm different from you, I'm not as romantic and responsible as you are!"

"Okay, okay, you are not coquettish, you are still responsible, I am not as reliable as you." Gu Qingyang didn't argue with those who were drunk, thought for a while and said: "Hey, I came here this time, but I failed your father and my second senior brother Yan Ming, I’m here to assist you. Don’t give me any work. I’ve been locked up in the pavilion for three years, and I’m finally released. If I don’t eat, drink and have fun, I won’t work!”

Zhuo Tianyi looked him up and down, and finally showed a contemptuous expression, "You, are you really the old man who sent me to help me?"

"Of course!" Gu Qingyang nodded solemnly, "I don't care about the affairs in your backyard, and the affairs at home, as long as you don't tear down the Zhuo family, I don't care. We can make an agreement, you let me eat with you It’s good to drink and fun, I’ll help you hold the bottom on the old man’s side so it won’t fall off, how about it?”

Zhuo Tianyi looked at him for a long while, and asked suspiciously: "Why do I feel that the old man is using the banner of asking you to assist me, and kicked you out of the house to cheat me!"

"Stinky boy, dare to talk to your uncle like this, see if I can't tell the old man that you forcibly twisted the proton of the Meng family!"

"Go ahead, let him know sooner or later, you can tell, it's better, save me a lot of trouble!"

"...Good nephew, uncle, I thought about it for a while, and it's better not to reveal it. Then, you exchange all the bank notes in my old house for yours, and I will definitely help you keep it secret!"

"If you don't trade, I won't trade at a loss!"

"Zhuo Tianyi, you have exploited your own people. The banknotes from the old house are exchanged for cash. You charge [-]% in exchange. How can there be such a high exchange fee in the world?!"

"Who told you to take the old man's bank note!"

"You...boy, listen, if you don't change, I'll go to your house and tell some of your glorious deeds when you were a child!"

"... just change it!"
