Ye Xun smiled faintly and continued: "Mr. Xu, people in the plains don't tell secrets. Although we are in a hostile relationship now, I admire Mr. Xu's heroic spirit very much. Mr. Xu is really willing to do it for such a thing. Sacrifice yourself?"
Ye Xun pointed at Hua Mingyang.
Xu Lin said: "A man is destined to live and die. Why not die for the sake of his master's family?"
Ye Xun was disdainful of this: "You are wrong."
"Why?"
"A man's death may be heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. But to die for such a person, wouldn't it be lighter than a feather, and meaningless."
After hearing Ye Xun's words, Xu Lin's expression turned slightly gloomy: "The young hero is right, but abandoning the master's family is not the way of a retainer. If this matter spreads to the world, how will Xu Lin gain a foothold in the world in the future? "
Ye Xun smiled slightly, and seeing that the time was ripe, he spoke again: "Mr. Xu, there is no need to worry about this matter. I admire Mr. Xu very much, and in my heart I hope that Mr. Xu can become my follower. If Mr. Xu agrees, , I promise Mr. Xu that I can spare Hua Mingyang’s life.”
Xu Lin looked at Ye Xun with a slight hesitation in his eyes. He had worked for the third son Hua Mingyang in the Fuwei Escort Bureau for many years. Although Hua Mingyang was not an aboveboard person, he did treat him well. How could he just give up like this? He left.
"Mr. Xu, what I said is very clear. As long as Mr. Xu agrees, I will leave immediately. Even if this matter is spread to the world in the future, I believe that people in the world will never criticize Mr. Xu. They will understand that Mr. Xu is following others as a last resort for the life of his master."
After saying this, Ye Xun's expression suddenly changed, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes: "Of course, if Mr. Xu disagrees, I will never be polite, and no one present will be able to leave."
Xu Lin hesitated again and sighed slightly. He didn't know what to do at this time.
"Mr. Xu, don't hesitate. As long as you nod, everyone will be happy with this misunderstanding. Isn't it beautiful?"
"Furthermore, I have reached an agreement with the second son of Fuwei Escort Agency. As long as I help him become the heir of Fuwei Escort Agency, he will give me twenty thousand taels in reward. At that time, I am willing to give ten thousand taels to Mr. In addition to these, I am also willing to help you improve your cultivation."
"Young hero is so young, how can you help Xu improve his cultivation?"
Ye Xun smiled faintly and pointed at Murong Fu and Linghu Chong: "These two are also my followers. They are also young, but their strength must have been witnessed by Mr. Xu just now."
Xu Lin moved his gaze to Linghu Chong, and once again thought in his mind that these two people had good cultivation, but they were willing to become followers of this young master. He must have something special about him, and He is also generous and willing to help himself improve his cultivation. More importantly, this young master must have some kind of relationship with the Qingshan Sword Sect. Otherwise, how would his followers know the martial arts of the Qingshan Sword Sect? Instead of following Hua Mingyang, It's better to just follow this young master.
And as long as he agrees, he is willing to let Hua Mingyang live, which can be regarded as repaying Hua Mingyang's kindness. But if he does not agree, then Hua Mingyang and himself will definitely die.
Thinking of this, Xu Lin no longer hesitated, and immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted Ye Xun: "Since the young master sincerely invites you, Xu Lin is willing to follow the young master's lead. If he goes against this, he is willing to be pierced by thousands of arrows and die."
Ye Xun chuckled and helped Xu Lin up: "Okay, from today on, Mr. Xu and we are a family, and I will never treat Mr. Xu badly." After saying that, Ye Xun took out a card from his arms. A thousand taels of silver notes were handed to Xu Lin: "Mr. Xu will accept this thousand taels and use it to buy some high-quality medicine to heal his injuries. Mr. Xu can keep the rest for his own use. If you have enough money, you can go to Qing'an City." The purchase of a simple house inside is a gift from me to Mr. Xu."
Xu Lin took the banknote and looked at Ye Xun with twinkling eyes. He was deeply moved. When he followed Hua Mingyang, the third son of the Fuwei Escort Agency was not so generous. He paid one thousand taels at a time. Xu Lin Immediately he knelt down again: "Thank you, sir!"
"Mr. Xu, there is no need to be polite."
After helping Xu Lin up, Ye Xun walked towards Hua Mingchen who was leaning against the tree. At the same time, he ordered Murong Fu and Linghu Chong to check whether Elder Chen and the ten disciples brought by Hua Mingyang were still alive.
As a result, all these people have returned to the west, and even Mr. Chen just breathed his last.
But Hua Mingyang did not die, but he fainted due to excessive blood loss. Xu Lin also came to him to bandage the gunshot wound on his leg.
Ye Xun said to Hua Mingchen: "Since we have reached an agreement, I will never break my promise. Xu Lin has become my follower. When you return to the escort agency, you must not say anything about him following me, because I I will ask him to join you in the escort agency and help you become the heir, but if you dare to talk nonsense, I will definitely let you die miserably. You should have seen clearly just now how good my cultivation is."
Hua Mingchen nodded repeatedly. He could always feel a sense of oppression on Ye Xun: "As long as he is willing to help me, then we are on the same side."
Ye Xun smiled and continued: "A lot of good guys died around your third brother this time. The first thing you did after returning to the escort agency was to find a way to deal with him and blame it on your eldest brother, so that you can There will be opportunities."
Hearing this, the light in Hua Mingchen's eyes gradually became fierce. The scene where Hua Mingyang wanted to kill him just now appeared in his mind again. Since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust.
"I will go south in the next few days, and then I will send another person to Fuwei Escort Agency to contact you. Then all matters can be discussed with him, but remember, the person I sent to help you must As a distinguished guest, you should not come and go as soon as you are called, including Xu Lin."
Hua Mingchen nodded heavily. No matter what Ye Xun said at this time, he would agree. If Ye Xun was unhappy at this time, maybe he would get rid of him.
Moreover, with the current situation of the Fuwei Escort Agency, his eldest brother Hua Mingfei has the advantage of becoming the successor, so Hua Mingchen does need Ye Xun's help at this time, although it requires 20,000 taels of silver.
But compared to the status of heir, a mere 20,000 taels of silver is nothing.
"Since we have reached an agreement with Young Hero, Mingchen will of course treat those who are sent by Young Hero to help Mingchen as honored guests."
Ye Xun hummed softly and said, "After the people I send contact you, you must first pay a deposit of 10,000 taels. When the matter is completed, the remaining 10,000 taels will be settled."
"Just follow the young hero's instructions."
Ye Xun nodded with satisfaction, no longer paying attention to Hua Mingchen, but called Xu Lin: "Mr. Xu can go back to Fuwei Escort Agency with the second young master first. I have reached a cooperation with the second young master to help the second young master become Fuwei Escort Agency." Mr. Xu, the heir to the Escort Agency, has been working in the Escort Agency for many years and must know the Escort Agency very well, so I hope that Mr. Xu can help the Second Young Master with all his heart."
Xu Lin hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement: "Since the young master has given the order, Xu will personally help the second young master."
...
After explaining everything, Ye Xun said goodbye to Xu Lin and others. After Hua Mingchen waited for the effects of the medicine on his body to completely dissipate, he stood up with the help of Xu Lin and notified his confidants in Fuwei Escort Agency to come here to clean up. On the battlefield, he personally took Hua Mingyang back and ordered his confidants to break Hua Mingyang's hamstrings on the way.
Ye Xun, along with Murong Fu and Linghu Chong, followed Feng Yuxiu all the way south towards Xuzhou City. Ye Xun wanted to find Shen Yumen who was summoned by him with the summoning card.
Then let him go to Qing'an to meet Hua Mingchen and let him help Hua Mingchen win the position of heir.
The reason why Ye Xun didn't do it himself was because Qing'an City and Qingshan Sword Sect were not far apart, only a few days away, and he was afraid that he would be hunted down by Wangyue Sword Sect and Divine Sword Sect again.
Ye Xun still vividly remembers Fu Hongxiao breaking in through the window. If he was the only one who came, Ye Xun would not be afraid. What he is really afraid of is Qin Yi from the Divine Sword Sect. After all, with his Dao Xuan Zhen Qi, he is the first With the strength of the mid-eighth level, even Murong Fu, Linghu Chong and Feng Yuxiu on his side may not be his opponent.
That's why Ye Xun was eager to go south. After five days of trekking, Xuzhou City was finally within easy reach.
Along the way, Ye Xun was getting farther and farther away from Qingshan, and his longing for Ye Xiaoxiao became deeper and deeper. Whenever he thought of Ye Xiaoxiao, Ye Xun would take out the money he gave Ye Xiaoxiao before leaving. His short flute is a piece of music used to express the longing in his heart.
It was late at night, and Ye Xun couldn't fall asleep because he missed Ye Xiaoxiao for a long time. He sat by the campfire and repeatedly played with the short Xiaoxiao in his hand. But the more this happened, Ye Xun's heart was filled with Ye Xiaoxiao's flowery smile. clear.
Sighing slightly, Ye Xun couldn't help but silently recite Ye Xiaoxiao's name in his heart.
Putting the short Xiao into his mouth, Ye Xun adjusted his breathing slightly, and then the melodious Xiao sounded in this silent night. The Xiao sounded continuously, and Ye Xun boldly used this Xiao to express the longing in his heart.
That beautiful woman far away, when can we meet again?
What Ye Xun played was a beautiful myth, a song that eulogized love. Since leaving Qingshan, his longing for Ye Xiaoxiao seemed to make Ye Xun face his own heart. He treated Ye Xiaoxiao with love. Unfortunately, he just wanted to lift the restriction, and his wandering heart made him close his affection for Ye Xiaoxiao.
But at this moment, Ye Xun wished Ye Xiaoxiao could be by his side.
Unknowingly, Ye Xun played the piece three times and looked at the crescent moon in the night sky. The dim moonlight was just like Ye Xun's mood at the moment, which made him look particularly melancholy.
With a sigh, Ye Xun's body was in the forest outside Xuzhou City, but his heart had long drifted to the Qingshan Sword Sect a hundred miles away.
