The clear light enters the house, and the waning moon is like a hook.
In the backyard of Yongtaifang Tan Mansion, in a row of houses on the east side, snoring could be heard one after another. Some were like beasts roaring, some were like scorching thunder, mixed together, it was deafening.
On the two-foot-long earthen bed in the house, there were more than ten people lying crookedly. One of them felt sleepy and pretended to be asleep on the right and said: "Brother Tianji! Isn't Girl Qin rescued?"
Why do you sigh all night long?"
Tianji Protector Qin Xiangchu turned over, looked at the person in front of him and said seriously: "Brother Diwei, if you have a daughter, you will suddenly know that one day, she will sleep on the same bed with some brat. And from then on
From now on, not only will she have parents and brothers in her heart, but she will also leave a large space for that brat. You will be like me, and you will feel so bad in your heart..."
The corners of Faye Sanqiu's mouth raised slightly, and he asked knowingly: "Brother Tianji, it's not Yang Shaoxia, is it? This young man has a pure nature and a righteous heart, and he is a rare good son-in-law! What else can't I be satisfied with?
?”
Qin Xiangchu smiled bitterly and said: "But this Young Master Yang may not be thinking about my Qing'er! When he was rescuing yesterday, both he and Qing'er were poisoned by the 'Xuan Hua Ru Meng Powder'. Although he was holding Qing'er in his arms at that time,
He was calling the woman next to him by name... Qing'er, a silly girl, even if she could achieve enlightenment with him, I'm afraid she would have to suffer a lot. Sigh——"
Ye Sanqiu laughed loudly: "Brother Tianji, you are quite handsome! From ancient times to the present, any man with some ability has always had three wives and four concubines, full of flowers and flowers. I don't care about the others, let's just talk about Brother Tianji's concubines.
, I’m afraid there are more than one hand of pampered maids, right? Are the state officials only allowed to set fires, and the common people not allowed to light lamps?”
Tan Xiangchu's face froze and he said slightly embarrassed: "I, I, Tan, are a royal merchant. How can I interact with those high-ranking officials without a bit of ostentation! But brother Diwei, why didn't you sleep all night, like a stripper?
Tossing and turning like a snake?"
Ye Sanqiu also imitated him and let out a long sigh, and then said quietly: "That day in this house, the Holy Aunt sealed a 'Essence of Lihuo' in my upper Dantian. At first, I didn't think anything of it, as if nothing happened.
For several days, I have been stimulating my inner breath.
, I felt that my head was hot and dry, and I felt sleepy. Who knew that at night, although I was sleepy, it was difficult to fall asleep. Now that the half-month period is approaching, if Saint Aunt does not take back this 'Essence of Lifting Fire', I am afraid that she will really
Become a stupid person."
Tan Xiangchu was nearby at the time, and naturally knew the whole story, so he comforted him and said, "Since the things that the Holy Aunt asked you to do that day have been completed, your anger must have dissipated long ago. After dawn, I will accompany you to see the Holy Aunt.
She must not have the heart to teach me how to lose such a good hand like you."
Only then did Ye Sanqiu feel more at ease. He suddenly patted his sleeping brother on the other side, who was lying on his back.
!”
Divine Fire Protector Zhu Yanli suddenly stopped snoring and grunted a few times before saying vaguely: "Diwei, you're such an owl at night, I haven't slept enough yet... What's the deal? Just look for someone else! I looked for chain armor for you yesterday.
, but exhausted..."
Ye Sanqiu saw that he turned around and wanted to go back to sleep, so he hurriedly called back: "Shenhuo, remember yesterday, the Holy Aunt asked you to find three pairs of chainmails for the first time. You looked sad, why did you send them here later?
Eighth mate?”
Zhu Yanli was disturbed by him, and his sleepiness disappeared immediately. When he asked about the chain armor, he couldn't help but said proudly: "Haha! This is where I am able to do things with my extraordinary strength, wisdom and courage! I still remember the day of the holy burial,
On the east hill in the north of the city, were the six armored guards who killed themselves with daggers? At that time, the brothers of Shuanggewei found a secluded place and buried the six men with their armor and bows..."
Ye Sanqiu understood immediately, his face changed, and he said in surprise: "So you took the two Gewei brothers, dug out the bodies of the six people, took out the mail... plus the two pairs you stole, together
Sent to Nanshi?"
Zhu Yanli was interrupted by him, but he was not angry. He nodded and smiled: "That's it! Brother Tianji really knows everything... Uh - why are you pinching my neck... Quickly, let go of your hands and ask for someone to come out."
,fate,la..."
Ye Sanqiu was so angry that he still pinched Zhu Yanli's neck and gritted his teeth and said: "You, you actually gave us the chain armor of a dead person! It's a dead person who was buried in the soil for more than ten days and then dug up! I said
Why is there always a strange smell on that armor...Ah! Ah! Ah! I will strangle you to death——"
Hearing the two people arguing, several figures immediately sat up from the kang and gathered around.
Zhu Yanli seemed to have seen a life-saving straw and hurriedly danced and shouted: "Quick! Quick... pull him away, I, no, can't, la-"
Everyone looked strange, but did not take action. Suddenly, they heard Qin Xiangchu say lightly: "What Shenhuo did is really unethical. It would be too easy to strangle him to death. Why not take off his clothes and give him a good beating? Well! Let him grow up in the next life.
A memory..."
Hearing the words, everyone rushed forward. After a few breaths, a scream like a slaughtering pig came from the house.
The morning light is beginning to shine, and the orioles are noisy in the courtyard.
Yang Chaoxi rarely overslept. As soon as he raised up half of his body, he was shaken by the early sun streaming in through the window, making him unable to open his eyes.
The wound on his left shoulder has healed much better, and he is still quite proud of the speed of recovery. Thinking of the long conversation with Liu Xiaomu last night, and now that his anger has completely disappeared, he realizes that she actually had good intentions. It just happened to catch up with his mood.
It was so unstable that it almost ended in an unhappy situation. But if he wanted to come and apologize, it would not save his face.
In the midst of many conflicts, I casually took out a pair of robes from my bag and put on them. I slowly walked out of the guest room and walked to the front yard. I saw the little monkey standing in the open space, concentrating on practicing his footwork, body skills, and techniques. In front of the main hall
Under the wide eaves, Tan Ming was supporting Xiaodouzi and looking at the little monkey. From time to time he turned his head and made comments, which made Xiaodouzi nod his head.
Yang Zhaoxi walked quietly and walked closer. He suddenly felt a slight heat on his face and couldn't help scratching his nose: "Little Zen Master Zhiyuan, I wonder what happened to Junior Sister Qin's leg? I came back too late last night, and Uncle Qin Shi was present, so I can't talk too much.
Ask..."
But Tan Ming said loudly: "Brother-in-law is out! From now on, you can call me by my lay name. My sister is still lying on the couch! If you want to know her injury, just knock on the door and see. I
I will never tell dad, hehe! There is just one thing. If my brother-in-law has free time today, he must show me how to practice the 'wind catcher' again. The leader of the Dragon Gang is very stingy and refuses to teach me anything...
"
Xiaodouzi suddenly heard Tan Ming calling his master "brother-in-law" and looked over with suspicion. Yang Zhaoxi covered up her panic, pretended to be calm and glanced at Tan Ming, then coughed lightly and said: "Little monkey, today's step
The method is good! Well! The body method is still a bit unfamiliar and needs to be practiced carefully. Master will test you again later."
After saying that, he turned around and headed back to the central courtyard. He could only hear the little monkey behind him giving a heavy response, as well as Tan Ming and Xiaodouzi's snickering.
Returning to the central courtyard, looking at the few simple guest rooms on the west side, I felt uncontrollable anxiety. The first room from south to north is where Qin Qing and Qin Ming's sisters live. On weekdays, it seems that
It seemed normal, but now I felt a little strange. I wanted to go over and knock on the door, but my feet seemed to be caught by vines. I hesitated for a long time, but I couldn't move away.
At this moment, a big hand patted his shoulder, and he laughed and said: "Young Master Yang is really in good health! But after not seeing him for a night, he is so powerful again. When I see the Holy Aunt, I will tell you about it again."
Please give me some advice."
Yang Zhaoxi was startled, turned around and saw Ye Sanqiu and Tan Xiangchu standing in front of him. He hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, "I've met Uncle Tan Shi, Brother Ye! I heard Master Changyuan mention it a few days ago.
You just realized that you are from the Ye clan, my master. I was disrespectful in the past, but I hope you can forgive me!"
Ye Sanqiu pressed his fists and pointedly said: "Ye is not a member of the Taoist sect, so we don't need to be polite. But you, the future father-in-law, should give you a big gift, haha!"
"Ivory cannot come out of a dog's mouth!" Tan Xiangchu glared at Ye Sanqiu before returning the salute with his fists clasped, "I heard Qing'er tell me what happened last night. Mr. Tan would like to thank Yang Shaoxia for protecting my little girl to the death. This is my Qin family's jade pendant. Go to
If you, the young hero, are short of money, you can use this jade to come to my shop in Qin's shop to withdraw money."
After Qin Xiangchu finished speaking, he put a jade pendant into Yang Chaoxi's hand. Without waiting for his refusal, he strode towards the guest room where Liu Xiaomu was staying.
But Ye Sanqiu knew very well that this old man did not agree with the matter between Tan Qing and Yang Shaoxia after all, and wanted to pay his kindness with gold and silver so as not to feel guilty. He had no choice but to hug Yang Chaoxi, turned around and followed him, and finally asked the saint aunt
Taking back the "Essence of Lihuo" is the top priority today.
Yang Zhaoxi stood blankly for a moment, then remembered that she shouldn't accept the jade pendant. She just wanted to push it back, but it was too late. Reluctantly, she picked up the jade pendant and rubbed it. The tentacles were warm and smooth, like grease. At a glance, she found that her whole body was flawless and white in color.
Yellow, embossed into circles of flame patterns of different sizes. It was actually carved from a whole piece of Khotan jade! Just one piece is already worth a lot, not to mention it can be used as a talisman to spend money at Qin's shop.
silver!
While he was in a daze, he saw a person walking strangely and passing by him. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "How are you, Brother Shenhuo! Are you here to pay homage to the Holy Aunt?"
The man stopped and turned around, but it was Zhu Yanli, the Protector of Divine Fire. He said angrily: "I'm here to complain to the Holy Aunt! Just an hour ago, these two bastards Tianji and Diwei
! Instigated several missionaries to use violence against me... Hiss! Forget it, the family scandal is not going to be publicized... Seeing that Yang Shaoxia is fine, I wish that this beating was not in vain."
Yang Chaoxi saw that one of his eyes was big, the other was small, and there were bruises on the corners of his mouth. He was really miserable. He had to hold back his smile and repeatedly cupped his hands: "I didn't do it lightly or harshly, it was indeed a bit too much! I think the saint aunt will return the favor."
Brother Shenhuo is fair."
Zhu Yanli waved his hand, then limped back to Liu Xiaomu's guest room, his figure lonely and his back desolate.
Interrupted by these three people, most of the uneasiness he felt immediately disappeared. Yang Zhaoxi shook the jade pendant in his hand, then calmed down and walked slowly towards the first guest room in the south.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The knuckles tapped on the wooden door, making a crisp sound. It was like some kind of summons, causing the anxiety that had been extinguished to suddenly rekindle.
"Come in! The door is unlatched." Tan Qing's soft voice came from inside.
Yang Chaoxi's heart pounded, and she took a deep breath before slowly pushing the door open. The furnishings in the guest room were immediately visible: in addition to two slightly narrow wooden couches, there was a small table and a wooden chair.
Tan Qing was half-leaning against the wall, with a folded quilt on his back and his linen robe covering his body. He said with bright eyes and a smile: "Senior Brother Yang, be well! Qing'er has an injury on her leg, so I won't greet you!"
"Why are you so polite?"
Seeing that her expression was as usual and that she didn't take anything to heart about yesterday, Yang Zhaoxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm here to take a look at your injuries. After all, your muscles and bones are sore and you need to take good care of yourself! I've told you
Go over to Tan Ming and ask him to keep an eye on you. Only when your leg injury is completely healed will you be allowed to practice the light body technique of 'Crossing the River with a Reed'."
After hearing this, Qin Qing smiled like a flower: "Giggle! I'm not a child. I know my own sense of propriety. Why do I need my younger brother to look at me? If my senior brother stared at me every day, even if I had a hundred courages, I wouldn't dare to lean on a wooden stick.
I’m going to practice kung fu with my stick...could it be that Senior Brother Yang is going to take risks again?”
When Tan Qing said this, his smile disappeared, and instead, his face was full of worry.
