As soon as Yu Bingru said something, Ji Mengsou immediately frowned and said: "The female knight saved the old man's life, and the old man is naturally grateful. But the merits have their own merits. Kunlun Nine Jade Cast Dragon Lord Xing serves the master and declares that he will do whatever he wants. The Master dispatches him, and the whole world knows this story, so isn’t he a Master’s subordinate?”
Yu Bingru was speechless after hearing this, and couldn't help but protested: "The elder's words are a bit biased. No matter how powerful the Confucius Sect is, it is not orthodox after all. Master Jiuyu led a group of knights to form an alliance with Master Li, and then Long Junxing It's just a token of alliance, and the so-called 'at your disposal' is probably a rumor among the people."
Ji Mengsou looked solemn and shook his head repeatedly: "The words of the heroine are wrong. I have the guts to ask what is orthodox? Kunlun Jiuyu is in vain to be called the leader of the martial arts. When the monsters came from the west, he did nothing. After expelling the monsters, he even coveted his master's heavenly skills. For one’s own sake, isn’t this so-called orthodoxy derisive?”
This old man was stubborn by nature, like fire, and he respected Master Li very much, so he refused to give in even in front of his savior.
Yu Bingru was shocked and angry, and stammered: "You...you are so...hum! This is simply unreasonable!"
Seeing the anger and stalemate, Mr. Jiu Chi quickly smoothed things over and said: "Brother Ji, what he said just now is indeed too much. Master Jiuyu's literary talent and military strategy are also outstanding. They are definitely not inferior to the three leaders of Tianshou Sword and Cauldron. Master It’s also very important.”
Although his words were meant to persuade, they were inevitably a bit evasive, and he still believed that Master Jiuyu was a subordinate of Master Li.
After hearing this, Yu Bingru became even more angry and responded coldly: "Why should others value the founder of our sect? Master Li has evil intentions... and different aspirations. How can he be dedicated to safeguarding the righteousness of the people?"
Ji Mengsou's expression changed, and he immediately shouted: "How dare you..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Li Chengtai say quickly: "Mr. Ji, please be patient. This heroine is just in a moment of impatience and has no intention of slandering the master. Ahem... Heroine, please look at the old man's thin face and stop arguing. Alright."
Before Yu Bingru could speak, Ji Mengsou had already said decisively: "Chengtai! My life is not worth a few cents, but my wife's reputation cannot be tarnished by children! You must not save your grandchildren because of this girl. , then you forget your duty!”
Yu Bingru was shocked when she heard the words, and realized that the person who had taken care of her in the fire today was Li Chengtai's daughter-in-law. Feeling pity, she finally said bitterly: "What the elders are teaching is that the younger generation is ignorant and spoke nonsense for a moment. Elders, please don’t take it to heart.”
Ji Mengsou then softened his expression, held up his hands as a courtesy and said: "The heroine knows that she can correct her mistakes. I am very pleased. The old man also has some rudeness. Please don't blame the heroine."
Yu Bingru felt a little ashamed when she saw Ji Mengsou being so magnanimous. He quickly gathered his clothes and returned the courtesy: "How dare you, the elder is too polite."
Seeing that the fight turned into jade and silk, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, they heard Li Chengtai cough lightly and said: "All the knights must be tired after running around in the middle of the night. Please take a rest in the temple tonight and wait until dawn. From now on, I will send someone to invite you to dinner."
Kong Fang said respectfully: "We appreciate the elder's kindness, but the village has suffered a great disaster and is in dire need. There is really no need to bother making arrangements for us."
Li Chengtai said quickly: "Young hero, you're too polite. How can I be called troublesome if I just have a simple meal?"
Ji Mengsou also nodded and said: "Chengtai is right. Although our village is suffering, the food is still sufficient, and we will not be unable to afford food. All knights, please feel free to stay. I just hope you will behave a little more prudently. Don't Don’t disrespect your master again.”
After he said that, he cupped his hands and walked away first. Li Chengtai sighed silently and said sarcastically: "I won't disturb the rest of the knights anymore. Let's see you tomorrow."
Kong Fang did not dare to neglect, and sent Li Chengtai and Jiuchi Lao out of the door with pleasantries. Yan Ting saw that they were far away, and then she muttered: "You are really stubborn and lose your temper for no reason. Mermaid, you can't be as knowledgeable as them."
Yu Bingru hummed and said, "Thank you, Miss Yan, for reminding me. In fact, justice lies in people's hearts. Any more arguments will only make you feel inferior."
Yan Ting smiled and said: "The mermaid is still very generous, unlike those old stubborns. By the way, how did you come up with the idea of flying down from the top of the mountain?"
Yu Bingru smiled slightly and said, "This is Brother Zhu's idea. Miss Yan might as well ask him."
Yan Ting took a closer look and saw that Zhu Fengyin was still half asleep and half awake, while Shang Hongxiu was leaning against him shyly.
Envy was unavoidable in her heart, and Yan Ting finally curled her lips and said, "Let's ask again later. I must have a lot of personal things to say about myself, and I can't be a spoiler."
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Yu Bingru couldn't help but look at Mu Yun, and saw that he was also looking at her. Although they looked at each other in silence, his eyes were filled with thousands of words.
Yan Ting hesitated secretly, then forced a smile and said: "Look, Xiaomu and the mermaid must also want to whisper, isn't that right?"
Mu Yun was inexplicably embarrassed, and quickly shrank his head and said, "No, no, no matter what you say in private, we should listen to the elders' advice and stop disrespecting this master's genius, ha..."
He couldn't stop laughing, and Yu Bingru couldn't help but feel a fever on his face, and lowered his head with embarrassment.
At this moment, Zhan Meiling suddenly coughed and said, "I was so entangled in everything before that I never had time to ask Senior Sister about it. I wonder if you know about this... young man named Mu who killed Senior Nephew Hou?"
Yu Miaohe was taken aback and shouted softly: "Master Hou's nephew also died? When did this happen?"
Zhan Meiling observed the words and became more confident, and then mused: "According to Master Yao's dictation, the night you restrained Senior Brother Tong and took the opportunity to escape, it was this young man named Mu who followed you, killed Master Hou, and killed him. My nephew was shot dead on the spot, is this really just a lie?"
Yu Miaohe was even more surprised when he heard this, and said with a sullen look on his face: "It's nonsense. How could Lin'er talk so freely? Did she really say this herself?"
Zhan Meiling nodded and said: "It is indeed what Senior Nephew Yao said personally, but since Senior Sister denies it, then you are naturally aware of this matter?"
Yu Miaohe said seriously: "I know the whereabouts of Hunzi very well that night. Unless he can drive the flying sword to kill people from a hundred miles away, the death of Master Hou's nephew must have nothing to do with him."
After hearing this, Yan Ting curled her lips and said, "Is that so? The Fish Girl will not deceive her fellow disciples. Xiaomu must have been wronged."
Zhan Meiling snorted noncommittally, while Mu Yun cupped his fists at Yu Miaohe and said, "Thank you, Senior Yu, for testifying for this junior. I'm very grateful."
Yu Miaohe glanced at Mu Yun, lowered his head and murmured: "You don't have to be like this. I shouldn't have done it before... Anyway, I have to ask for your understanding."
Guess she regretted not stopping Mu Yun from surrendering Yan Po before, so she looked quite ashamed.
Mu Yun was totally wrong. Suddenly he felt his ears warm and his heart beating. After a moment, he said calmly: "Senior is full of affection for this junior, and this junior is very frightened, but the two of us can't make it together after all."
