Just as Zhang Xingyan took a knife and scared away the ruffian Sun Liuzhi who was tangling with his father and was talking to each other on the street, he suddenly heard someone beside him exclaiming loudly at Xingyan.

When the father and son watched in a blink of an eye, they found that it was a brown-clothed father-in-law who was turning out from the stall and walking to the two of them. Looking at the appearance of the father-in-law, he seemed to be quite old, but his face was rosy and black hair. Look at the way he walked from the side, his steps were vigorous and powerful, and his walking was windy, and he did not use a crutch like an ordinary old man. It seemed that this father-in-law was quite familiar with the way of health preservation.

After looking at it, I suddenly remembered the praise from my father-in-law just now. Xingyan said humbly,

"Huh! The old man praised it. I just scared away a rogue and it was nothing big."

Hearing his humbleness, the father-in-law frowned and smiled:

"Young man's words are bad! I just saw it clearly. When I saw the ruffian entanglement, I almost didn't think about it and went forward to seize the sword and intimidate him. This is the one who is quick-witted and brave to make decisions. Later, I saw you choosing the sword-witted person. Although that person is a rich man in the world, he has a clear face, a slim forehead, and looks reckless. Generally, people with this face may stop you from drawing the sword. If you persuade him, you will have the chance to speak harshly. Stick your slutty heart and make him think you really have the will to kill him!"

After hearing the father-in-law's analysis, Xingyan was stunned. He didn't have time to think about the matter that was like a wind and cloud just now. But now after listening to the father-in-law's analysis and thinking about it, it really makes sense. If he chose a rude man with a squinting face and a squinting eyebrows just now, he would probably be afraid that the world would not be in chaos. Not only would he not be dissuading, but he might also take the initiative to present his sword with both hands. In this way, he would not have the chance to slow down, and he would not have time to say that intimidation. If that were the case, he really didn't know how to continue the show just now!

Looking at the boy's thoughtful expression, the energetic father-in-law in front of him knew that he could make a decision, so he smiled and continued:

"What's more, from what the boy said just now, my father-in-law also heard that the boy could judge from the place where he was lying on, that guy was definitely not very lazy and fearless. In that room, you can still have such careful thoughts, how can you not admire him?"

"Ha~Shame!"

Xingyan couldn't help feeling happy after hearing the father-in-law's praise. His father, Lao Zhang, was just a village man in Ganzhi after all. Even if his son explained it carefully, he still couldn't understand the key points. Today, when he met this father-in-law who happened to meet, he analyzed his pretentious behavior just now and how could he teach this sixteen-year-old boy to be unhappy?

When I was full of joy, the father-in-law laughed again:

"It is better to meet by chance than to meet each other. I think today, the two of you have not had a meal yet, so it is better to have a homestay and ask you for a drink. What do you think?"

After the words were finished, the honest old Zhang was about to refuse, but the father-in-law pulled up the rabbit basket he placed on the ground and swayed along the street without hesitation!

Seeing this, the Zhang family and his son had to follow each other and follow the old man. In fact, for Xingyan, he happened to have just lost his job at Daoxianglou and didn't know where the lunch was going today. The brown-clothed father-in-law's move hit his mind! He was happy and a little nervous, but he saw the father-in-law walking vigorously in front of him. After he hesitated, he had already fallen behind. Looking at the handsome appearance of the father-in-law in front, Xingyan was secretly shocked, quickly speeded up and followed closely.

Just as the Zhang family and his son were jogging along the way, the father-in-law had already stopped in front of a restaurant. He stopped and took a breath. Xingyan looked up and found that the restaurant was extremely familiar to him: he had visited this restaurant a moment ago, and it was the sad place he had this morning, "Daoxianglou".

Besides, the boss of Daoxianglou, Shopkeeper Liu, saw Xingyan and his son coming upstairs again, he thought that the young man was still coming for the two wages. He was about to scold him, but he was not careful that the elderly guest in front had stopped in front of him, turned around and pointed at the father and son, and shouted loudly to him:

"Ye! This guy, our group of three are serving the elegant seat upstairs!"

When he heard that he was regarded as a hall, the owner of this floor, Zhangguan Liu, was almost suffocated to death. Just as he was about to have an attack, he saw that the boss was domineering and looked unusual. Therefore, Zhangguan Liu dared to secretly say bad luck in his heart, but he did not dare to be negligent in his mouth. He respectfully led the three people to a elegant seat upstairs by the window and sat down.

Xingyan remembered the seat arranged by Manager Liu clearly. Three days ago, this place was where Ju Ying and Uncle Cheng sat. Zheng said that he was thinking of people when he saw the familiar tables and chairs. Seeing the familiar position of tables and chairs, Xingyan remembered the little girl Ju Ying at that time, looking at a plate of pig hands, and before he knew it, a smile appeared on his face - but he was not careful. Manager Liu accidentally glanced at Xingyan, and was seeing this former subordinate Xiao Zhutang, now there was a smile on his face.

"It's probably because this guy is secretly happy when he sees that he's being treated like a guy just now?"

Manager Liu was quite sceptical:

"This brat is really hateful!"

After the old man in brown finished ordering the dishes, the shopkeeper Liu returned to the back hall in disappointment and prepared to change into a brightly robe-like outfit and go out for inspection.

Not to mention that Manager Liu went to the back hall to try out the fittings, the energetic father-in-law, after the wine and food came, he began to drink one cup after another, and enthusiastically persuaded the father and son to drink and eat food. In addition, he did not say a word.

However, although Xingyan also ate wine and food according to his father's wishes, he was not as ignorant as his father. After the father-in-law had five or six glasses of wine, Xingyan finally couldn't help it and put down his chopsticks and asked very politely:

"I dare to ask this old man, I want to meet us by chance, but I don't know why my father-in-law is so beautiful about the boy, and he invites me and my father to come here to enjoy such a delicious meal? Isn't it just because I drove away the little sesame thing like Liu Finger Pig?"

"Hahaha!"

The old man in brown clothes who was filling wine gulps with wine, heard the words awake, but laughed loudly, and rolled in the restaurant, attracting the attention of diners on the entire second floor.

"Young brother asked well! But the younger brother didn't know that you and me have actually been intimate with each other for a long time!"

"Oh?! But it seems that the old man and I have never met?"

After hearing what my father-in-law said, Xingyan tried hard to recall, but no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't remember when he met this father-in-law. When he was confused, the old man said happily:

"By the way, I don't have to say anything to the old man at once. If I don't see you, just call me 'Brother'."

"Actually, we met just yesterday. Isn't it that guy forget it so quickly, right?"

"Yesterday?"

Even though Xingyan is usually quick, he is quite hesitant at this moment. He thought hard in his heart and sorted out everything he had experienced yesterday in his heart:

"I slept in the Ping'an Inn in Poyang County until the sun was 300 o'clock; yesterday afternoon, I went to the water residence on Nanji Island to eat shads - could he also eat shads there? But there were not many people in the hall at that time. If I really saw this father-in-law, I would never forget it; or in the afternoon? The incident happened yesterday afternoon was so thrilling that I would never forget it for the rest of my life; could this father-in-law be a tourist on the painting boat? But I don't seem to have any impression... Who is this father-in-law?"

Seeing that he was confused, the old man smiled and said:

"My brother is smart, but his memory is not very good. Yesterday, on the Poyang Lake, Brother Meng preached the deeds of that year for me. When he was about to come, he gave me a poem. Why did he forget so quickly?"

After hearing what my father-in-law said, Xingyan was still a little confused; the fierce scene on Poyang Lake yesterday afternoon was too shocking; later he was "stunning", and he was shocked and was shocked. At this moment, he was really confused about what he did before that day.

Seeing Xingyan was still stunned, the father-in-law didn't explain much, just said:

"I heard that the wise men said, 'If you have the will to do good, you will not reward even if you have good intentions; if you have no intention, you will not punish even if you have no intentions.' My brother's actions these days are exactly the great act of "doing good without intentions" that day!"

Hearing this, the boy who had kidnapped Shangguan and had always been ulterior motives made his heart beat. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that the father-in-law was already excited and continued:

"Punishing the strong and helping the weak, and not seeking retribution for oneself is what our good men do! It's so satisfying! It's a big deal!"

After saying that, the father-in-law raised his neck and beeped a few times, and then he got into his stomach. He smacked his lips and said:

"It's great to think about yesterday's events! The old man didn't expect that the young man could write a good poem, and he thought of the sentence "Drunk leaning on the moon on Zhou Lang's platform, the sound of the clear flute sends a dragon sleep in the cave". It's wonderful! It's so vivid and can be seen in a flash!"

Before he finished speaking, the energetic father-in-law raised his neck one after another and drank two more glasses of strong wine. I wonder if he had drunk too much, but the father-in-law was talking a little more now:

"But both of you don't know that I have always been evil and I don't think that good people will suffer, and the evil people will be free! Well... What a 'The sound of the clear flute sends the dragon sleeping in the cave'! So for this poem, I will also give the boy a small gift today!"

Speaking of this, the old man who was very happy and handsome seemed to be 70% drunk, his face was flushed, and he looked cute. Without waiting for Xingyan and his son to talk to each other, he stood up and said vaguely:

"Wait a minute, wait until I see what's in my sleeve."

Maybe the father-in-law was quite hasty when he came out, and now he was touching the sleeves of a wide robe, but he was useless for a while, and his drunken face became even redder.

Seeing this situation, he woke up and said:

"Actually, I don't have to be polite. This is because I am not rewarded! To be honest, I don't know this..."

Just as he was about to give in, the old man waved his hand, squirted with wine and blushed his face and stopped his chorus and shouted:

"How can I be so ignorant of my Yun Zhongjun's words? I don't have to be busy, so I will look for it slowly!"

So Xingyan and his son saw the drunk old man in brown clothes. They closed their eyes and couldn't stop stammering, but they were muttering spells like the genius he had seen in the past.

"Haha~ I have it!"

Just as the father and son were wondering if the old man was so drunk that he was dazed, the "Yun Zhongjun" suddenly burst into laughter, showing that he was very proud and boasted:

"Haha! It seems that I have a good memory. Before leaving, I didn't forget to bring one or two gifts that I could take out - this is a good habit! Look, this stone flute is given to the young man, just in response to the 'The sound of the clear flute sends the dragon sleep in the cave'! Haha~ It's amazing!"

The old man had already taken out a jade flute from the sleeve of the robe and stuffed it around without saying a word. Seeing that he was half drunk, Xingyan was afraid that he would break the jade flute with him, so he had to take the jade flute as his father-in-law and hold it tightly in his hand.

Seeing Xingyan accepting it, the old man was very happy and said in a daze:

"Okay! Just... my man... my son, that little girl is pretending to be hypocritical!"

Hearing this, Xingyan had already reached the point of refusal, and had to retreat back, just looking at the flute there and smiled foolishly. The jade flute in his hand was made of exquisite jade, gentle and round, as if it was naturally formed; the flute body was light and green, with snow-colored patterns hidden inside, just like a few rays of clouds floating in the green valley of spring mountains. In the sound hole of the flute, there was a strand of plum blossom tassel tied, with bright red silk color, floating in the wind, which contrasted with the crystal and calm tube body, which was complementary.

And above the jade flute blowing hole, two words are carved with the ancient Wending large seal script:

"Shenxue"

These two ancient seal scripts are vigorous and elegant, just like the finishing touch of the dragon painting, which immediately makes the jade flute feel ancient.

Just as Xing Yanchi looked at the jade flute in his hand, the half-drunk old man suddenly slapped his head and shouted:

"Look at my mind, I'm really confused! I'm afraid I'm so drunk... Today I gave a flute to give people a fish, but why didn't I just teach people a fish? I can't do anything without a score! Wait, that score..."

Speaking of this in one breath, the drunk old man tied his tongue again:

"That score, I, I should have brought it too? Brother, wait a moment and wait for me to get it slowly!"

So Xingyan saw the old man stammering for a while, and then took out something from his sleeve with a proud expression. When he took it out, Xingyan looked closely and saw that the thing was an ancient silk book. The deep blue cover of the book was set against the seaweed and dragon pattern. On the snow-white forehead, there were three large black seal script characters written:

"Shuilong Yin"

Now that he took out the book, the old man gave it again. Xingyan was afraid that the silk surface would be covered with oil and water, so he had to accept it obediently. Seeing that he was happy, the father-in-law was very happy and raised his glass and laughed:

"Haha! Happy! In the past two days, I witnessed my brother's moral behavior in punishing evil and helping the weak, and I also taught my deeds and wrote poems and gave them to the favor of the essay. The day before yesterday, I helped the brother see the true face of the man. Today I can give you a flute and make up my thoughts. I have to forget about my thoughts."

"Uh~ I can't drink this wine anymore. If I drink it again, I will be drunk!"

"Two, I'll say goodbye!"

After saying the call like a sequel, the old man who was already very intoxicated stood up and muttered vaguely:

"Oh, no matter what kind of hero he is... a hero, after a thousand years... there are again, how many people can recognize him!"

"Man! Come and check out!"

As he said that, the old man waved his fingers and asked the "mate" Zuojin to come over to check the bill.

The shopkeeper Liu, who was clicked by the old man but had already changed into a glamorous robe, didn't believe that the strange old man was still calling him this time, so he looked around there. While shaking his head, he was in a hurry to prevent the drunk old man from screaming loudly again:

"What are you looking at? It's you! Come and check out!"

As soon as he heard the confirmation, Manager Liu was like a deflated ball, and said "unlucky" in his heart; but it was not easy to get into trouble, so he had to accompany him to smile and rub it over and tell the old man how much is the total amount of wine and food. After he reported the money for wine and food, the red father-in-law sprayed alcohol and greeted him:

"Here! I'll give you this silver ingot, and then! Let's return the rest to this guy."

As he spoke, the drunk old man handed Liu "mate" a ingot of horseshoe silver, and then muttered again:

"You old housekeeper, dressed in a fancy way, but you didn't even start that guy smart!"

After saying that, he swayed left and right towards the stairs.

"Old man! Be careful with your feet! Let's wait for me to help you."
