In the early morning, the morning sun slanted through the clouds and shone in the courtyard. It was warm and made people want to stretch themselves.
Jiang Han stretched out his palms in front of his face, but the sunlight shone on his face through his fingers. He squinted his eyes, and suddenly he was in a trance, as if he had never traveled through time, as if he was still the man who lived in modern times and had gone through many vicissitudes of life. .
But after putting down his palm, he saw Butler Qin and a person behind him.
It was a young man of about twenty years old, standing like a flagpole, with a thin face and sharp edges.
Since the last time he was attacked, the Ningguo Mansion has taken action. On the one hand, it asked the government office to help investigate the real culprit. Of course, in the end, they only caught some gangsters in Yunmeng City. On the other hand, Qin Zhong wrote to his eldest brother in Kyoto. , Jiang Han didn't know what was written in the letter, nor did he know that the letter just disappeared into the sea after being sent.
The fact that Ningguo Mansion's uncle was attacked did not stir up any trouble in Yunmeng City. At most, it was because of the recent fire in Sanyu Bookstore that many people remembered Jiang Han's name. They felt very sad after learning that he was attacked. Surprised, suspicious that it was just a competitor.
So the storm quickly subsided.
But just in case, Qin Zhong asked Butler Qin to find him a bodyguard to protect his safety.
Qin Fen said: "Uncle, this is an orphan that my Qin Mansion took in before. He learned martial arts from a martial arts master in the north of the city. If I think it's okay, I can stay as a guard."
Jiang Han looked at Zhou Hu with interest and said, "Introduce yourself."
Zhou Hu raised his head and raised his chest, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Young Master, my name is Zhou Hu. He has been practicing martial arts since he was twelve years old. He has been practicing martial arts for eleven years without stopping. , Crane Capturing Fist, and Eagle Claw Kung Fu, and are now at the seventh-level refinement realm."
Jiang Han's heart moved, such a young person in the seventh level of refining.
These days, he learned that at the ninth level of skin refining, one can go to the Yamen and work as a catcher, and at the eighth level of blood refining, one can be the head catcher of a county. As for the seventh level of fine refining, one can go to some state capitals to open a military service. Okay, there is no problem in becoming a martial artist.
But most people in the refinement realm are in their thirties. Zhou Hu reached this realm at the age of twenty-three, so he is considered a genius.
Jiang Han said: "You can try out your martial arts skills for me to see."
Zhou Hu said: "How does the young master want the villain to act?"
Jiang Han thought for a while, pointed to a moso bamboo in the courtyard and said, "Can you break that bamboo?"
"Let me give it a try." Zhou Hu got up and suddenly rubbed his body, making an eagle claw gesture with his right palm. There was only a cracking sound, and a moso bamboo that had grown for four or five years in the courtyard was torn apart in an instant. crack.
Jiang Han's eyes lit up, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, you will follow me from now on."
"Yes, Master." Zhou Hu said with excitement on his face, cupping his fists.
Qin Fen smiled and brought up the business: "Uncle, this afternoon the prefect of Yunmeng Mansion will hold a cultural gathering at the newly built Phoenix Terrace. This cultural gathering has invited young talents from Yunmeng to participate. Some highly respected people will participate in this cultural gathering. I think the Confucian scholars have also been invited, and this morning our Ningguo Mansion also received an invitation from the prefect. What I want to say is that if I am free, I will accompany you."
After saying that, Qin Fen took out a red invitation card from his arms.
Jiang Han wanted to refuse. In the past three days, he had become more and more proficient in the Yining Sword Technique, and he liked the process of practicing the sword even more. He also wanted to become proficient in it as soon as possible, and then go to Zhongli to teach him other changes in the Yin Ning Sword Technique. How can I be interested in attending any cultural gathering?
But then I thought about it, my father-in-law allowed me to go so that I could get acquainted with other Confucian scholars, not to mention that this cultural gathering was organized by the prefect of a state.
"Okay, I will definitely go then...but is Miss Qin willing to go?"
Jiang Han took the invitation and asked, getting along with Qin Muqing these days, he gradually discovered that although this woman has a good appearance, she is completely illiterate!
It would have been easy to use those poems from the previous life to impress a girl!
Those graceful love poems, I think they are a sure hit for women of this era!
But Jiang Han tried it, and it didn't work at all!
When he recited love poems affectionately in front of Miss Qin, Miss Qin's face was full of confusion, and she almost wrote "What are you reading? Who am I? Where am I" on her face.
It's like playing the piano to a cow!
Well, when Jiang Han said the four words "playing the piano to a cow", Miss Qin immediately understood it and pushed him to the ground and gave him a hammer: "How dare you compare me to a cow! Do you want to ride on me? !”
Although this girl is fierce most of the time, sometimes she is quite gentle. For example, after he was attacked by those killers, he hid in the house because he was cowardly and afraid, so the girl ran over to comfort him and look at him. With a "scared" look on his face, he opened his arms and said, "Jiang Han, be good, don't be afraid, sister, give me a hug."
Jiang Han felt that she was coaxing a child, so he said angrily: "Young girl, don't even think about breastfeeding me!"
As a result, Jiang Han received another severe beating.
So Jiang Han understands that this woman has no culture at all. If she is asked to attend some cultural gathering, will she be willing?
Qin Fen said with a smile: "If the eldest lady doesn't go, I will hire some teachers to come and teach her how to read and write."
Um...okay! Reading and literacy is a sure win for Miss Qin... Jiang Han nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with her then."
Just when Jiang Han was preparing to go to Phoenix Terrace with Qin Muqing, in Anxiang Academy, Zhongli the Great Confucian also received an invitation from the prefect Jia Wang.
But the difference is that this invitation was sent by Magistrate Jia himself.
After watching Jia Wang leave, Zhongli Wuyou smiled and picked up the invitation on the table and said, "Jia Wang, after all, he guessed a lot."
Si Jian said: "Does he know the purpose of teacher Yunmengcheng's visit?"
Zhongli Wuyou shook his head and said: "It should just be suspicion... Well, since Jia Wang is suspicious, others must also have some doubts... Did you let out the news that I came to Yunmeng to take on a disciple?"
"The news has been released."
"Okay, then let's go to the Phoenix Tower and announce this matter to the public." Zhongli Wuyou said with a smile.
Si Jian frowned and said, "Teacher really wants to accept a disciple?"
Recruiting a disciple is just a smokescreen to cover up the real purpose, but releasing the news is different from announcing it personally. The great scholar made a huge promise and said he would definitely accept a disciple.
Zhongli Wuyou did not answer, but asked: "Has the alien species been found?"
Si Jian shook his head with a cold look: "We haven't found him yet, but he has entered the net laid out by Li Mingsi! There is no way to escape!"
Zhongli Wuyou said: "Tell Envoy Li not to fight with that alien species if you encounter him. This person has extremely high martial arts skills, and Xuanzi may not be his opponent."
"yes!"
"By the way, what is that kid Jiang Han doing these days?"
"He... huddled in Ning Guo Mansion and didn't dare to come out. He didn't even go to Sanyu's bookstore. He seemed to be frightened." Si Jian frowned and said, "This person lacks courage!"
Zhongli Wuyou said leisurely: "You are wrong. This boy is a smart man!"
