The day before the apprentice banquet was just at dusk.
Yuan Dongyuan was in his study room, and was dealing with tomorrow's apprentice banquet, when suddenly a servant came over in a hurry, knocked on the door, and said: "Master, there are people from Daxia coming to visit."
Bactrian?
Yuan Dongyuan frowned first, then shouted: "Come in."
The servant opened the door and came in.
Yuan Dongyuan got up and asked, "How many people came? What kind of people?"
"Master, there are four people here, one old and three young." The servant replied respectfully.
Yuan Dongyuan's complexion changed. The Great Xia Kingdom and the Great Ming Kingdom have always been old enemies. When the first emperor was in power, the Great Xia Kingdom invaded the border. The three cities were repelled, and since then, the Great Xia Kingdom has come to pay homage every year, but they always refuse to accept it.However, the Daxia Kingdom has a small land and few people, and there are not many capable people. Only this youngest and third young man has a bit of reputation in the Jianghu of the Ming Dynasty.
This young man's martial arts are extremely vicious, and he is good at using hidden weapons, so his martial arts are very high.
Those who have always faced these four people have no good end.
Wuzheng Villa has never dealt with these four people before.
These four people are here today, I am afraid they are enemies rather than friends.
Yuan Dongyuan thought for a while, and said to the servant: "Go and tell Master Su and the others about this, and I'll go and see these people first."
"Yes." The servant replied.
When Yuan Dongyuan walked to the hall, before he approached, the four of them tacitly turned around and looked at them.
Yuan Dongyuan was secretly startled. Although his lightness kung fu is not the best in the world, he has practiced martial arts for many years, and his kung fu has already been perfected. Just then he exerted great strength and lightened his steps to test them. Thinking of these four people reacting so quickly.
"Old owner." Out of the four, an old man with white hair and childish face stroked his beard and greeted him.
Yuan Dongyuan arched his hands, "I don't know how to address you?"
"This old man is Xia Houjiu, the national teacher of Great Xia." The old man stroked his beard and said.
Yuan Dongyuan thought to himself that it really was them, the Great Xia Kingdom uses Xia as the national surname, and except for the royal family, only those who have meritorious service can get the Xia surname.
"It turns out to be Xia Guoshi, who has admired his name for a long time." Yuan Dongyuan said haha, "I don't know why Xia Guoshi came here today?"
Xia Houjiu twirled his beard. Although he had white hair and a childlike face, his eyes were filled with an unexplainable evil spirit, which made people feel unhappy when they saw it. He said: "Old owner, the old man follows me The envoy came to the court, and heard that the grand event in the martial arts world is the son's apprentice banquet, so he deliberately came here to join in the fun, and also asked for a glass of wedding wine, I don't know if it is convenient for the old owner?"
Although he spoke politely, his brows and eyes carried a look of determination.
The three apprentices stood behind him, all holding weapons in their hands, it was clear that the visitors were not good.
Yuan Dongyuan frowned, and was about to politely refuse, the apprenticeship banquet was a major event of their Wuzheng Villa, and, the people from Daxia were not kind, if they agreed, there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Su Mengzhen's voice from outside the hall, "The former owner of the villa is a guest from afar, how can we live up to Master Xia's kindness?"
Everyone looked towards the door, Su Mengzhen walked in with a smile on his face.
Xia Houjiu's heart tightened, just as Su Meng was sleeping outside the door, he didn't notice his existence at all.
"Lord Su." Xia Houjiu cupped his hands at Xia Houjiu.
Su Mengzhen nodded with a smile, and exchanged glances with Yuan Dongyuan.
Although Yuan Dongyuan was puzzled, he still nodded and agreed: "Lord Su's words are reasonable. Since you are guests, the old man can't be rude. That's it, housekeeper."
The butler stepped forward.
Yuan Dongyuan said: "The courtyard in the northwest corner happens to be empty, so you can lead Xia Guoshi and four people there, don't wait too long."
"Yes." The butler nodded,
Xia Houjiu stood up with a smile, and his three apprentices also left.
After they left, the smile on Yuan Dongyuan's face disappeared. He frowned, full of worry, and there was no other reason. Suiyun is now on the cusp of the storm, and he doesn't know what will happen anytime, anywhere. Here came Xia Houjiu, four masters and apprentices.
Yuan Dongyuan felt that this matter seemed to be getting more and more complicated now.
"Lord Su." Yuan Dongyuan opened his mouth, feeling very uneasy.
Su Mengzhen smiled and said comfortingly: "Old owner, I know what you are worried about, but since those four people came, they must have a plan, if they don't agree, maybe something will happen instead. It would be better if we put them under our noses now, and we can see what happens if something happens."
Yuan Dongyuan suddenly realized, he nodded, "It's still Master Su's thoughtful thinking, but I think these four people may come from ill-intentioned people. Tomorrow will be the teacher apprentice banquet. They must have malicious intentions when they come today."
Su Mengzhen said: "Don't worry, the original owner, no matter what their intentions are, we can tell them to lift rocks to shoot themselves in the foot."
He smiled meaningfully.
……
The next morning.
Before Yin Shi, the Wuzheng Villa became lively.
Xu Yiqing was woken up by the noise outside.
He got up, rubbed his eyes, and thought for a while before he remembered what day it was today.
The people in the martial arts who came to congratulate him in the front hall had already filled the hall with congratulatory gifts.
Wuzheng Villa has a lot of friends in the Jianghu, and this time it is Yuan Suiyun's apprenticeship, many friends have made a lot of money, they have all kinds of elite soldiers and weapons, and ginseng antler is even more common.
When Yuan Dongyuan woke up early in the morning, his right eyelid twitched non-stop.
He always felt that something was going to happen, but he was busy with so many things that he had no time to stop.
All the family acquaintances and friends who came to congratulate him had to be greeted by him personally, and some people needed him to introduce each other.
Yuan Dongyuan was almost busy running around, even so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground.
Seeing it, Xu Yiqing felt exhausted and flustered. He secretly rejoiced that Dongfang and Gong Jiu hadn't done it before. Although he didn't need to do anything for this banquet, his character has always been to avoid these trivial matters.
"Dongfang." Xu Yiqing turned his head sideways and said to Dongfang Bubai in a low voice, "It's a good thing we haven't held a teacher appreciation banquet before, otherwise, wouldn't you be going crazy from exhaustion?"
Dongfang Bubai said with a smile: "Mr., you are joking. There are big and small banquets for apprenticeship. The original owner of the old village held it so grandly because of the many people he made friends with. If I were to do it, except for some friends, other people would be very grand." I won't ask."
Besides, what he wanted to hold was not an apprentice banquet.
Xu Yiqing nodded, this is indeed Dongfang Bubai's character.
While the two were talking in low voices, someone turned their attention to them.
"That's Xu Yiqing who is now famous all over the world?" Xia Houjiu squinted his eyes, staring at Xu Yiqing viciously like a poisonous snake.
His chief disciple Xia Yuan nodded, "Master, that's him, and next to him is his great disciple, the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect, Dongfang Bubai."
Xia Houjiu squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Yiqing. When he saw that his temples were as smooth as an ordinary person's and his gait was ordinary, Xia Houjiu sneered in his heart. What kind of martial arts master is just a person with a false name.
It's just ridiculous. Everyone in the Ming Dynasty claims to be smart, but they are fooled by a person who deceives the world and steals their reputation.
However, although Xia Houjiu thought he had seen through Xu Yiqing's true face, he did not dare to make a rash conclusion.
He glanced at the second apprentice Xia Yuan Ermin behind him.
Xia Yuaner immediately understood, and he walked towards Xu Yiqing, just at this moment, a family of servants walked past them holding a plate with a jug of wine and several wine glasses on it.
Xia Yuaner hid his hand in his sleeve, flicked his fingers lightly, and a stone quickly came out of his sleeve.
The foot of the servant suddenly went limp, the plate in his hand tilted suddenly, and the wine in the jug almost poured out.
Dongfang Bubai had quick eyesight and quick hands, his hands were like piercing clouds and mist, and he grasped the flagon and plates lightly, not even a drop of wine leaked out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The servant apologized repeatedly with a pale face.
"It's okay." Xu Yiqing waved his hand.
Dongfang Bubai raised his eyes and glanced at Xia Yuaner coldly, his sharp eyes made Xia Yuaner panic.
He bowed his head and walked away quickly.
But Xia Houjiu showed a sneer.
Sure enough, a liar.
People in the martial arts world, whenever they encounter such a situation, they will respond quickly.
However, Xu Yiqing didn't do anything just now, or he had already seen through his intentions, but this is absolutely impossible, so there can only be one truth, that is, Xu Yiqing is a complete liar.
He doesn't know martial arts at all, so he didn't have time to deal with it.
Xia Houjiu suddenly felt extremely relieved.
Although the four of them, the master and apprentice, were the number one master in martial arts in the Great Xia Kingdom, and he was even worshiped as a national teacher, but in the Great Ming Kingdom, because Xia Houjiu's master and apprentice were vicious and shady, few people looked up to them.Xia Houjiu had long harbored hatred for this.
Now, seeing the people in the martial arts circle of the Ming Dynasty being played around by Xu Yiqing, he felt that he was very angry, and felt that his chance had come.
Even if Xu Yiqing is a liar, he is also recognized as the number one master in all martial arts in the Ming Dynasty.
If he defeated Xu Yiqing, wouldn't it mean that he could replace Xu Yiqing as the number one master in Jianghu?
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Xia Houjiu soon became certain of this.
He thought about the secret letter he received last night, and he was worrying about how to attract everyone's attention, so now is his great opportunity!Such a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, if he misses it, will he still be Xia Houjiu?
Xia Houjiu turned his head to the side, and lowered his voice to give instructions to his third apprentice Xia Yuansan.
Xia Yuansan has a bad temper and is young, so he is the most suitable candidate to be a spearman.
After Xia Yuansan heard Xia Houjiu's words, his eyes really lit up.
He nodded, and glanced at Xu Yiqing with wolf-like eyes.
Yuan Dongyuan was in his study room, and was dealing with tomorrow's apprentice banquet, when suddenly a servant came over in a hurry, knocked on the door, and said: "Master, there are people from Daxia coming to visit."
