Lianhua Manlou

The hall is brightly lit.Wearing a purple gold crown and a seven-star sword, Mu Zhenren looks even more dignified and noble under the light.The unrestrained and unrestrained Mu Taoist in the old days no longer exists.Standing here at the moment is Wudang's No. 14 leader Mu Zhenren, who will never be underestimated by anyone.

Huamanlou is not a mean person, even if he is unhappy in his heart, he is still polite, he closed his head lightly and said: "Congratulations to the Taoist priest for being enthroned, Huamanlou is here to congratulate you."

Mu Zhenren smiled, supported his arm, and said: "You must not be too courteous, young man, you have a heart to come here."

Hua Manlou was also smiling, and said: "The Taoist priest has gone through many hardships and finally got his wish. Wouldn't it be a pity if Hua Manlou couldn't witness this grand event with his own eyes?" .

Although Master Mu was smiling, there was a knife-like sharpness in his eyes.Supporting Hua Manlou's elbows with both hands, the upward pressure suddenly turned into a downward pressure.This pressure is likely to cause two results-the bones of both arms are crushed, or they are crushed to the knees.Hua Manlou's face suddenly changed.

With a sound of "poof", the stone slab that Huamanlou was standing on had been crushed, and beads of sweat had already appeared on his face. The expressions of the people standing near them had changed, but they could only watch helplessly.One hand abruptly supported Huamanlou's arm that was about to break off, and when Master Mu was about to unleash his true strength, he cleverly led Huamanlou back to the word "Qiao" on his side.

Only one person laughed and said, "Qitong is too impatient, and he didn't wait for me."

The heavy burden on Huamanlou's arms suddenly disappeared without a trace, which made him feel like he was about to fly. Fortunately, the person beside him supported him without a trace, and his heart warmed and his eyes glowed. Slightly sour.That person didn't go with him, but he thought he was taking care of him in the dark all the way, the extra comfortable bed in the inn, the favorite food in the restaurant... My original persistence and stubbornness have become a little unreasonable.

"I don't know who this young master is..." Mu Zhenren narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes became more and more cold and stern, showing a sinister taste, faint, invisible but even more shocking.

"Boy Wang Lianhua, I'm here to congratulate Master Mu on his great joy!" Wang Lianhua said with a smile, without any hesitation.With a long bow, the emerald green cat's eye ring was revealed between the fingers.

The appearance is not very special, but Taoist Mu was clearly taken aback for a moment, his face immediately filled with a hypocritical smile, and said: "Young Master Wang has a heart, please forgive me for the poor hospitality, why don't you go to the back to rest first?"

Wang Lianhua bowed again: "Renren Mu is very polite, that boy is more respectful than obedient. Qitong is also with me. I think Master Mu is very busy now, so I don't want to disturb you."

Mu Zhenren agreed straightforwardly and simply, but Hua Manlou was full of suspicion but had no choice but to follow Wang Lianhua and Xiao Daotong to the guest room.Unexpectedly, the little Taoist priest led them farther and farther, and it was clearly not in the direction of the guest room.Hua Manlou stopped in his tracks, grabbed Wang Lianhua's sleeve, and said, "Perhaps the leader of the path went the wrong way, and he didn't know where to lead us?"

But the little Taoist ignored him and said respectfully to Wang Lianhua: "There is an old friend who wishes to have a story with Mr. Wang."

Wang Lianhua shook Huamanlou's hand quietly, gave him a reassuring look, and said with a smile: "Since an old friend dares to refuse to obey orders, the Taoist priest please."

The little Taoist nodded, and led them for a long time, and finally arrived at a slightly desolate old courtyard. The courtyard was unexpectedly clean and tidy, with every plant, every tree, every flower and every pavilion, with its own natural and elegant beauty. It is somewhat incompatible with the solemnity of Wudangzhuang.

There were two people sitting and standing in the gazebo, both of them were dressed in white clothes like snow, except for Ximen Chui Xue, who had never seen anyone in white clothes so beautifully, solemn and elegant, dignified and solemn, absolutely haughty and absolutely ruthless.The two didn't talk to each other, and occasionally looked at each other, but they were in a tacit harmony.

Hua Manlou clearly saw Wang Lianhua's raised eyebrows, her smile was coquettish and ambiguous, and said loudly, "Long time no see, is City Lord Ye okay?"

There is no Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, who can be called the lord of Ye City, and Hua Manlou can't help but secretly admire such a character.But he is different from Ximen Chuuxue, at least he is still a "human", with human emotions and desires, his way has already transcended the ruthless realm and has become more humane and more respectable and lovely.

Ye Gucheng just nodded to Wang Lianhua, but was more interested in Huamanlou beside him: "Huamanlou?"

Hua Manlou nodded with a smile; "City Master Ye is indeed as handsome as the rumors say."

Ye Gucheng stared at him, and suddenly said: "Your Excellency, you really can't see?"

Huamanlou said: "It used to be."

"Ever? Sure enough." Ye Gucheng said: "With the benevolence and benevolence of the prince, he will definitely not stand idly by."

Wang Lianhua laughed, but her words were not polite at all: "Wang is ashamed to receive the praise from the city lord, and you can just open your mouth if you have something to do in the future." These words are extremely tricky, and they seem to be full of promises, but in reality they are just empty words White Fang was just prevaricating.

Only to hear the other person suddenly sneer and say: "It's true that those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. Unexpectedly, Wang Gongzi has cultivated a compassionate heart by accompanying Hua Gongzi day and night." With a needle-like sarcasm.

But Wang Lianhua was not annoyed, instead she smiled and said: "I thought that the ninth son already had a deep understanding, and the master of Yecheng should be more strict in precepts and deeds."

Nine!male!son!This name was mentioned more than once in the tunnel. Hua Manlou looked over in shock. The man's jet-black hair was not in a mess, there was not even a single wrinkle on his snow-white clothes, and his face was as beautiful as a sculpture. With a cold, conceited, and determined expression, his eyes are as sharp as a blade.His smile towards Wang Lianhua was full of sarcasm, but the familiarity in his tone was more like an awkward old friend, just like Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng.

Thinking of Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou was full of sadness, so she really didn't pay attention to the ambiguity and narrowness in Wang Lianhua's speech, and even missed Ye Gucheng's rare embarrassment.

Gong Jiu narrowed her eyes slightly: "Is this how you treat an old friend who came from afar?"

Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "Then it depends on how generous this old man is?"

Gong Jiu sneered: "Chu Yunfeng's specialty snow leopard, I wonder if Wang Gongzi still likes it?"

Wang Lianhua blinked, eyebrows curved: "This kind of beast is extremely difficult to tame, only the fur is still useful, it should be made

leather jacket.After all, the wind is about to blow..."

Ninth Young Master looked at Hua Manlou meaningfully and said with a smile, "Yes, it's going to be windy, Young Master Wang, please take care of yourself, don't get cold."

Hua Manlou's heart moved slightly, Chu Yunfeng... Obviously Wang Lianhua and Jiu Gongzi were not really talking about fur, maybe it was a code word?His eyes lit up involuntarily.But what does the Chuyunfeng Snow Leopard refer to?Could it be related to Ye Di Bao Jian or...

Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "To each other, Wang is not talented and still has a little knowledge of Qi and Huang. As for the Lord Ye, it may be more difficult to adapt to the climate of the Central Plains after living overseas for a long time?"

Ye Gucheng glanced at him lightly: "Don't worry about it."

Gong Jiu suddenly said, "I heard that merchants traveling to and from the West have disappeared for no reason recently, and even wine from the Western Regions has become precious."

Wang Lianhua's eyes flashed slightly and she sighed: "That's a pity, it's just for making a living..."

Gong Jiu sneered: "Wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and the huge profits here will tempt even a saint, let alone a mortal? They deserve to die."

Wang Lianhua said: "I'm just feeling in vain. But most of those merchants are veterans of decades, and they probably have some skills and won't die easily. What's more..."

Gong Jiu raised her eyebrows: "What's more, it is rare to meet noble people to help, maybe I will hear good news soon."

Wang Lianhua smiled and said nothing, but her expression was rather disapproving.

Ye Gucheng suddenly said: "Since we are talking about wine, how about having a drink together?"

Hua Manlou looked at him in surprise: "City Master Ye is drinking?"

Ye Gucheng smiled slightly: "Originally I didn't drink, but being with an alcoholic will inevitably lead to some habits."

There was warmth in Gong Jiu's eyes: "It's just that I like to have a drink or two, so I can be called a drunkard there."

Wang Lianhua grinned and said, "But City Lord Ye originally only drank plain water!"

Ye Gucheng replied seriously: "Drinking white water has the benefits of drinking white water, and drinking alcohol also has the benefits of drinking alcohol. This is not in conflict."

Wang Lianhua looked at Gong Jiu and laughed softly: "It seems that City Lord Ye has really changed a lot..."

A jug of wine, four bowls.

The wine is not a good wine, just the most common shochu, and the bowl is not exquisite but it is big enough.There are exactly four bowls in a jar of wine, no more, no less.

Wang Lianhua picked up the bowl and said with a smile: "Should we think about it?"

Gong Jiu sneered: "Where is it so important to drink as much as you want?"

Ye Gucheng didn't care about these vain rituals, but he still said lightly: "It's just to add to the fun."

Hua Manlou smiled and said: "There is still a lot to think about, there are many reasons. Shouldn't we do a bowl for our reunion at this time?"

Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "Naturally, it should be!"

The four wine bowls collided together, and the laughter rang out for a long, long time.

Wudang, kitchen.

A handsome and clever young man carried two loads of fresh vegetables, and boasted to the old Taoist priest who led the way with a smile: "My vegetables are all freshly picked this morning, and they are several times bigger than others. You said why didn’t Old Li head come? Hey, hey, that’s my uncle. He just broke his leg the other day, and he won’t be able to get better in a while. I just came here to meet relatives, so I’ll gain a lot of experience if I help you. Our village is not so lively! How about saying that the elders are all supernatural powers, amazing!"

Along the way, there was flattery and flattery. The old Taoist priest had only been the head of the kitchen all his life, so he was very happy to be praised and couldn't help but chat with the young man.After all the vegetables were stored in the warehouse, the young man suddenly covered his stomach and moaned loudly: "Hey, my stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet!"

The old Taoist frowned and pointed in one direction: "Go straight to the right, turn left, and don't run around!"

The young man simply responded and ran away without a trace.After turning the corner, he rubbed his nose triumphantly, and said with a smile: "I never thought that I, Lu Xiaofeng, would be despised by others one day."
