As the carriage entered the city of Hangzhou, there were more and more awe and fear looks on both sides of the road. Just like when everyone at Yijian Villa returned to Hangzhou before, but this time everyone's focus was on the figure in yellow shirt sitting at the front of the carriage.
The young man in a short shirt paid careful attention to the pedestrians on both sides. The atmosphere in the city today was far better than the day he returned to Hangzhou. Just now, from the gossips of some people in the market, I got a rough idea. It seemed that the whereabouts of the two of them during their trip to Yangzhou were exposed, and Ye Dangting was rumored to be here after a battle in Guzhou.
Just as they were about to pass through a street and alley and prepare to head east of the city, suddenly a figure flashed among the crowd.
Lin Manliu immediately looked sideways, his left hand already clenching Shan Ye Xing, always ready for sudden visions. But when the figure walked out, the boy in short shirt recognized his identity, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
It's Senior Sister Ji Ting! Ye Dangting looked at Ji Ting and nodded slightly, and Ji Ting nodded in response. Lin Manliu called out softly: "Senior Sister Ji!" Ji Ting smiled at the young man, but then moved his eyebrows slightly, signaling Ye Dangting and Lin Manliu to follow her.
The woman who suddenly appeared walked towards the streets in the east of the city. The people who had gathered at the entrance of the alleys also hurriedly got out of the way, for fear of bumping into the people of Yijian Villa.
The figure in the yellow shirt waved the reins in his hand, and the boy in the short shirt followed suit, pulling the little yellow horse beside him, and walked toward the east of the city together.
Along the way, Ji Ting and the two explained the recent changes in Hangzhou and the results of their trip to Yangzhou.
Just as Lin Manliu heard just now, someone spread the word about the battle between the lone boat and the lake! He even added some emphasis on the text to depict the competition between Ye Dangting and the umbrella holder in a magical way, as if it was a peak duel between martial arts masters.
And in the days when Lin Manliu and Ye Dangting returned to Hangzhou, the news had almost spread throughout the Southland. Suddenly, there were many people who praised the mysterious swordsmanship of Yijian Villa, and even more people praised Ye Dangting's transcendent swordsmanship!
In order to earn more money, some storytellers in the teahouses and restaurants made this yellow-robed swordsman almost as famous as Liu Mei in the past.
. . It is said that Ye Dangting, the second owner of Yijian Villa, once killed Liu Mei, the best swordsman in southern Xinjiang with a sword. He also defeated the enemy with one sword on a lone boat in Slender West Lake in Yangzhou. , nearly a hundred people surrounded him, but none of them captured him.
Listening to these descriptions, Lin Manliu couldn't help but laugh. Ye Dangting's face stiffened and he twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment.
Looking at the performance of the two of them, Ji Ting guessed most of the truth and covered his face with one hand as if smiling. At this moment, the window of the carriage was suddenly opened. Ji Ting turned around and saw that a little girl with braids had her head stuck out of it.
Although I had originally looked at the extra carriage and guessed that it might be the key to solving the problem brought back by Ye Dangting from this trip, but I didn't expect it to be a little girl?
"Who is Brother Ye?" Ji Ting wondered. Shen Adou didn't wait for Ye Dang to hear the introduction, and said to himself: "You can call the poor Taoist Yangzhou Xiaobanxian!" Ji Ting was slightly startled, but soon laughed: "Ji Ting has met Yangzhou Xiaobanxian Immortal!" Priest Shen Xiaodao looked at the sister in front of him and said it so naturally. He smacked his lips at Lin Manliu and said, "How can you say that!" The boy in short shirt scratched his head and remembered that when they first met that day, he As an act of attentiveness, he was ready to speak out.
Unexpectedly, Taoist Shen also opened his lips slightly. The two of them said in unison: "Get on the road!" Shen Adou shook his head with satisfaction. Ji Ting first looked at the little girl with braids lying on the window edge, and then looked sideways at the boy leading the horse.
. . From now on, the villa will be more lively than before! After the three of them had finished playing, Ye Dang asked aloud: "Since Mr. Mo left, has there been any news about Feng Bai?" Ji Ting's face returned to calmness, and he responded: "No..." If there is any discussion. The time they had known each other was not as long as the time that Ji Ting and Lu Fengbai had known each other.
When Lu Fengbai was still in Yangfeng Valley, Ji Ting became his disciple. He was one of the youngest disciples in Yangfeng Valley at that time.
After Lu Fengbai and a group of disciples left Yangfeng Valley, Ji Ting, Ye Dangting and others followed him.
Finally, he settled in Hangzhou, dispersed the Lu family's wealth, and transformed this old house into the current Yijian Villa.
Hearing no news about Lu Fengbai, Ye Dang heard a voice saying: "After returning to the village, I have something important to discuss with everyone..." Ji Ting responded without saying much.
As the figure in yellow suddenly turned serious at the front of the carriage, she understood that something must have gone wrong during this trip to Yangzhou.
. . . . . . After the carriage passed through the main road in the east of the city, it passed the Ginkgo Lake and the Willow River. Under the watchful eyes of these ordinary people, Ye Dangting and the other two successfully returned to Yijian Villa.
As soon as he entered the door, there was a young man in pink clothes standing behind the screen with a grimace, ready to scare Lin Manliu.
The boy in the short shirt had not yet had his attack, but Taoist priest Shen Xiao from behind the crowd did jump out.
"Are Lin Daxia's daily playmates all these naughty children?" As soon as these words came out, Chong Ying, who rubbed his face with his hands, was not happy.
With a wave of his sleeves, he looked in the direction of Shen Adou, and his tongue-breaking skills were immediately displayed.
"Who do I think you are here! Lin Manliu, where did you find this little kid who wants to spar with your brother Chong?" Lin Manliu was speechless for a while, tugged on Shen Adou's robe, and said: "Don't I have the same knowledge as him..." The young man's voice was neither loud nor quiet, and Chong Ying happened to be able to hear it clearly.
"Hey, let me tell you, Lin Manliu, you thought you had walked a lot, so you imitated Brother Ye and started to stage the music!" Chong Ying raised his voice.
The boy in short shirt smacks his lips
"Tsk", and then said: "I really don't know how far I have walked. It's true that you idle in the village all day long and don't do anything serious..."
"Okay! Let's go play on the school grounds today! I won't let you beat me until you understand!" Chong Ying shouted.
"Hey, let's take a look!" Shen Adou said in anger. Seeing the words of the three boys and girls in the courtyard, Ye Dang was helpless, and then he stretched out his hands and grabbed the heads of Lin Manliu and Chong Ying respectively.
The two of them were arguing verbally, and neither of them had time to dodge, and both were caught by the old liar in yellow. The heads of the two teenagers were shaken by Ye Dangting.
. . Lin Manliu snorted, as if telling Ye Dang to listen, just wait for me to go find the master and cry!
Chong Ying kept shouting all kinds of arrogant words, such as today's shame, he will repay it a hundred times a year! Such words.
But the more the two of them behaved like this, the more energetic Ye Dangting became, forcing the two teenagers to suffer unspeakably. At this moment, a woman in black walked out from the right side of the main room. She looked at the strange behavior of the figure in yellow with disdain on her face.
Naturally, it was Lin Manliu’s master, Eleven.
"You are so old, but you are still like this...everything is boring..." Eleven said aloud. Ye Dang looked over after hearing the sound, then let go of his hands and looked at Eleven with a smile.
The woman in black asked aloud: "What's wrong?"
"There is still a solution available..." the figure in yellow shirt responded. After hearing his words, Eleven turned around and walked towards the main hall.
Ye Dangting looked at everyone around him and spoke out: "Manliu will take Master Shen to have a rest first. Later, he will inform the disciples in the village to discuss matters in the main hall." Lin Manliu, Chongying, Ji Ting and others responded in unison. : "Yes!" Then Shen Adou, led by the boy in a short shirt, prepared to go to the unused courtyard of Yijian Villa to rest.
During this period, when Lin Manliu passed by Lin's father and Lin's mother's courtyard, he greeted his parents and reported that they were safe. The little girl with braids watched every move of the boy in a short shirt.
. . Whether it was the initial exchange of taunts with Ye Dangting, or the quarrel with Chong Ying, or the current exchange of greetings in front of his parents.
As far as she was concerned, the young man in front of her named Lin Manliu had done the best he could.
But there are so many desires in my heart, but how much can be left in my hands in the end. . . After saying goodbye to Father Lin and Mother Lin, the two continued to walk towards the side courtyard of the villa.
Shen Adou suddenly said: "Since traveling alone in southern Xinjiang, do you think you are still the same person?" Lin Manliu's steps stopped, and he turned to look at the little girl with braids. The look in his eyes was the same as when he looked at Zhou Mo.
"No matter where I am, I am who I am. I wonder what Mr. Shen Xiaodao means?" the boy in a short shirt replied loudly.
The little girl with braids patted her head and jumped forward.
"Just asking casually, lead the way quickly, lead the way quickly, didn't Ye Dang listen to let you go to discuss things earlier?" Then Lin Manliu took Shen Adou to a courtyard, and then left, and the two of them never met again. There are no words.
It was as if Shen Adou's previous question had offended the young man. . . . . . . Lin Manliu returned to the main hall of Yijian Villa and found that there were already many people in the hall.
Except for the empty main seat and the place where Mr. Mo usually sits, other places are already filled with people.
It has been almost half a year since I opened the store in April and got to know these faces in front of me. Everyone in Yijian Villa knows that there is a young man in a short shirt who has traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers to deliver news to the Villa and walk alone with his sword for the spirit in his heart.
Ye Dangting was sitting on the left side of the main seat. He changed his playful behavior on the way and saw Lin Manliu standing at the door of the main hall.
He waved to the boy in a short shirt and motioned to come to his side. When Lin Manliu entered the main hall, he said hello to the passing brothers one by one. When passing by the eleventh position, he even saluted his master, and finally stood beside Ye Dangting.
The figure in yellow shirt was sitting upright. After watching all the disciples who were staying in the villa, he coughed lightly, and everyone looked at where Ye Dangting was.
"Earlier Feng Bai used himself as bait to allow us to return to Hangzhou safely, and then Mr. Mo also tried to find a way for us to break the situation and was forced to leave. Today we are the only ones left in the village!" Ye Dang heard the words. , all the disciples of Yijian Villa clenched their fists.
Since their return from southern Xinjiang, both good and evil in the world have been looking for opportunities and are ready to seize two of the four swords in the world from Yijian Villa.
However, since ancient times, the conflicts and disputes in the world have always started with trivial matters, and then turned into a struggle for life and death between the two factions.
How could those who covet two of these four swords give up after seizing the sword?
