Cai Zhao quickly retracted his neck, pointed his finger to describe the man Qinghui, and whispered: "Who do you know he is? He is Uncle Zhou's cousin, Uncle Zhou Zhiqin!"
Mu Qingyan turned around and looked again, thinking that no wonder this man looked familiar. It turned out that his appearance was somewhat similar to Zhou Zhizhen's.
He thought for a moment and gloated: "You can't be Feng Xiaohan now, why don't you ask Qian Xueshen to change your appearance? Otherwise, if the people of Peiqiong Villa recognize you, you won't be able to explain clearly."
Cai Zhao glanced at him: "Don't worry, he won't recognize me. Uncle Zhou has only been to Luoying Valley twice. The first time he came back, I was only seven years old, and the second time was to attend the funeral of my aunt. That time I was very sick. , didn’t come out to meet the guests at all. When my aunt’s funeral was over and Uncle Zhou came with his family to say goodbye, I took a few glances through the window – oh, Uncle Zhou is much thinner than he was three years ago.”
"You care about the Zhou family." Mu Qingyan snorted coldly, "Then who is this next to him?"
Cai Zhao thought for a while: "It should be Dongfang Xiao, the hero of Zhongzhou. He and Uncle Zhou are friends for eight worshippers. They have often traveled together since they were young. That year when something happened at Qingfeng Temple, it was my aunt who took him and Taoist Yunzhuan from the Digged from the rubble.”
"What is the relationship between Dongfang Xiao and Qingfeng Temple?"
Cai Zhao: "He was originally a registered disciple of Qingfeng Temple, and he was the junior disciple of Taoist Master Yunzhuan based on his seniority. Later, Qingfeng Temple was completely destroyed, and Taoist Yunzhuan lived in seclusion to recuperate, and he went home to protect his parents."
"So, what are these two well-known and upright heroes doing here?" Mu Qingyan asked.
Cai Zhao spread his hands: "How do I know?"
Mu Qingyan's eyes moved and a smile emerged: "I thought of something."
"You, 'Uncle Zhou', have known your aunt and your father since childhood, so you must be familiar with the Kungfu in Luoying Valley, and you are probably no stranger to your aunt's martial arts - he may not recognize your appearance, but I’ll definitely recognize your kung fu.”
Cai Zhao slowly opened his eyes.
Mu Qingyan: "As long as Zhaozhao makes a move, he will definitely be able to figure out your identity. However, Luoying Valley is sparsely populated, and there are four of you in your family. Even the most inexperienced person can guess your identity."
"Then, what should I do?" Cai Zhao was nervous.
Mu Qingyan looked happy: "Don't worry, I have a solution."
"Don't come up with any bad ideas!" Cai Zhao's mind was in a mess, and he changed the subject incoherently, "Except for Uncle Zhou's table, what are the origins of everyone else."
"What's so difficult about this? You'll know once you try it." Mu Qingyan looked calm and composed, "Which table should I try first?"
Cai Zhao casually said: "The table with the most people is the one with the most arrogance."
Mu Qingyan nodded, reached out and patted the table gently. The three or four empty dishes that Cai Zhao had eaten immediately jumped up and were knocked half a foot off the table. Then he waved his long sleeves, and these empty dishes were placed on the table. It whirled around in the air, then shot out of the window. It flew over the northwest corner and shattered several times. Dozens of broken pieces of porcelain fell straight down.
Cai Zhao was shocked by his efficiency in doing what he said.
Soon, a burst of swearing and yelling came from the lobby downstairs - the pampered fat white man and his men were seen jumping and dodging in a hurry to avoid the 'hidden weapon' falling from the sky.
Mu and Cai stared at each other for a moment, and finally came to an almost calm conclusion - "It's the Si Qi Sect's Kung Fu."
Chapter 48
Amid a burst of yelling, a young and beautiful man and woman slowly came down from the second floor. The man is tall and straight, handsome and noble, while the girl is pretty and petite. She seems to be timid and timidly shrinking behind the man.
The fat white man who was hit by broken porcelain fragments was jumping to his feet. When he saw Mu and Cai, he cursed on the spot: "It was that bastard who plotted against me. Come out and die...ah, was it you two who did it?" , so brave, I risk my life, I..."
Mu Qingyan said: "Brother, please calm down. Small things are not worth the damage to your body."
As he spoke, he waved his long sleeves, and Fatty Bai and the others felt a strong gust of wind blowing over them. Dozens of broken porcelain scattered on the table and stools on the ground were lifted up and embedded with several ding-ding-ding sounds. In the wall opposite.
Such power, such skill - the hall fell silent for a moment, and the other tables looked over.
Although Fatty Bai is arrogant, he is not stupid. He can still tell who he can and cannot offend.
Since I couldn't offend him, I had no choice but to greet him with a smile.
The man and woman claimed to be brother and sister, with the elder brother named Yan Ning and the younger sister named Feng Xiaohan.
People with sharp eyes have actually noticed that the two of them came out of the same guest room. Even if they are brothers and sisters, it is not enough to avoid it. As for why the brothers and sisters have different surnames, haven't you heard of half-mothers? But why are the biological siblings nothing alike? It’s because each brother and sister are similar to their father—it’s really easy to explain, and everyone agrees that it makes sense.
It was Fatty Bai's turn to introduce himself to his family. He wanted to cover up a few things, but Mu Qingyan opened his mouth and said, "I wonder which leader of the Siqi family you are?"
Seeing that his origins had been revealed, Fatty Bai was still hesitating whether to use a pseudonym. Zhou Zhiqin over there already said: "This person's surname is Jin and his name is Baohui. He is the uncle of the leader of the Yang family of the Siqi family."
Mu Qingyan cupped his hands in a perfunctory manner: "It turns out that uncle Jin is disrespectful and disrespectful."
Jin Baohui was angry and turned around and said: "Young man with the surname Zhou, I will repay my family name myself, so I want you to get in trouble!"
Zhou Zhiqin was already a bit drunk, and when he was about to stand up and retaliate, he was held down by Dongfang Xiao, who repeatedly said: "Forget it, forget it." - The six Beichen sects are in the same spirit, Jin Baohui is Yang Heying's uncle, In terms of seniority, he can be regarded as Zhou Zhiqin's elder.
Mu Qingyan took advantage of the situation and turned around and walked towards Zhou Zhiqin's table, "Yan is not talented. May I ask how you call these two seniors?"
The handsome young man smiles and talks happily, which makes people fall in love with him. Zhou Zhiqin had no intention of shying away and immediately introduced himself to his family. Dongfang Xiao followed him simply, "Zhongzhou Dongfang Xiao."
Mu Qingyan immediately expressed his long-standing admiration. Cai Zhao couldn't see the hypocrisy and courtesy on his face, and whispered: "Brother, you have never heard the names of these two seniors, and your words are not sincere at all."
Mu Qingyan said with a straight face: "Although the two seniors keep a low profile, no matter how ignorant they are, they have heard of the reputation of Peiqiong Villa. What's the matter with me saying that I have admired you for a long time? Why are you trying to break the wall?"
Cai Zhao timidly lowered her rosy face and said, "Then I won't say anything." She looked like a timid little daughter.
Others just paid it back, and the waiters around them almost stared out of their eyes - is this the same female evil star who chopped off someone's hand yesterday! Did they have a dream yesterday or a nightmare today?
Although Zhou Zhiqin was full of sadness, he couldn't help but smile.
He raised his eyes and looked at Cai Zhao: "This little girl is very kind-hearted."
Cai Zhao's heart tightened, and Mu Qingyan said leisurely: "My father often said that my sister has a face that looks like anyone else." Cai Zhao secretly cursed in his heart, wishing he could pinch his waist.
Dongfang Xiao wondered if this brother's father had remarried after his mother died, and how could his father have met his younger half-sister. Later, he thought about it, maybe it's not surprising that the relationship between stepfather and son is good, and father and son are compatible.
After all, Zhou Zhiqin couldn't figure out who Cai Zhao looked like, and finally said: "Since you little brothers and sisters don't set foot in the rivers and lakes much, what are you doing in this barren mountain and snowy ridge? Not to mention the sinister people in the rivers and lakes, this snowy mountain is no joke. There are people on the mountain. Many ferocious beasts from ancient times that were fond of cannibalizing human flesh, still, still..." Tears suddenly filled his eyes and he couldn't go on.
Cai Zhao was surprised: "Senior, what's going on?"
Dongfang Xiao sighed and said: "Brother Zhou has an only son, who started to experience in the martial arts world in the past two years. At the turn of summer and autumn last year, he somehow came to this snowy mountain. When he was brought back by his entourage, only half of his body was left. No one knows what happened to him. What a ferocious beast."
Cai Zhao was very sad, and after a while he said: "In this case, wouldn't it be even more sad for Senior Zhou to come to this snowy mountain?"
Although Zhou Zhiqin also knew that the origins of the names of the brothers and sisters might be false, he could also see that the little girl's care was purely sincere and without pretense. He couldn't help but sigh: "The traitor is not good at learning and has ventured into dangerous situations." , I ended up dying on this snowy mountain like no one else, but I..."
His voice was choked, "I still want to see the place where he died. It would be great if half of his body could be recovered."
The wind and snow were merciless, but the only thing pitiful was his fatherly heart. Cai Zhao felt uncomfortable and didn't know what to say.
Dongfang Xiaoyi let out a long sigh: "Brother Zhou is depressed, so I might as well come with him to have a look, but you two, it's better to stop here."
Cai Zhao naturally couldn't say anything stupid to test his fiancé to Zhou Zhiqin and Dongfang Xiao. He couldn't find an excuse for a moment and had to go see Mu Qingyan.
Mu Qingyan said straightforwardly: "We brothers and sisters have something to hide, so we have to go up the mountain."
——Everyone has talked about this, so Zhou Zhiqin and Dongfang Xiao can’t persuade them anymore.
"Just now I listened to a few words on the second floor. It seemed that everyone here was planning to go up the mountain in the afternoon. But our brothers and sisters came along the way. Everyone said that the snow-capped mountains are dangerous and inaccessible. How come this time besides the two seniors and our brothers and sisters, there are so many How many people want to go up the mountain?" Mu Qingyan looked like he was asking for advice modestly.
Dongfang Xiao hesitated and said: "Actually, I don't quite understand. It's neither summer nor autumn, so why are so many people going up the mountain?"
Mu Qingyan deliberately glanced at the lone thief and the master and two servants, with doubts on his face.
Zhou Zhiqin saw it and said directly: "I can't tell the origins of those three people, but the name of this skinny man with sinister features is Lan Tianyu, and he is a famous thief in the world. If he hadn't shown his evil deeds, how could the Beichen Six Sect have kept him?" To this day. But he is a thief after all, so you brothers and sisters might as well be careful."
As if he heard someone talking about him, Lan Tianyu turned his head and looked over, grinning with yellow teeth.
At this time Qianxue Shen finally got up, yawning profusely and stepping down the stairs. He seemed to be unable to straighten up. He walked lazily to Mu and Cai. Cai Zhao squinted and said, "Hey, you finally got up?"
Qian Xueshen showed no shame: "If I hadn't been so hungry that I couldn't get up." When he saw the martial arts style of Zhou Zhiqin and Dongfang Xiao, he quickly bowed and saluted.
After exchanging names and identities, Dongfang Xiao's eyelids twitched and asked again: "Master Wan is Miss Feng's... fiancé?"
In fact, he didn't believe that Cai Zhao and Mu Qingyan were brothers and sisters. He had already secretly guessed that they were young lovers who had eloped. Suddenly, a pretty boy with no finger in his body that matched a girl suddenly appeared, and he was actually his real fiancé!
This, what should we say about this?
Cai Zhao saw the surprise in the eyes of the two seniors and could only forcefully laugh.
Mu Qingyan smiled softly and said, "Seniors, please forgive me. My sister has suffered from eye disease since she was a child and she has not recovered yet."
You are the only one who has eye disease, your whole family has eye disease! Cai Zhao was secretly angry.
The three of them couldn't sit at other people's tables anymore, so they chose the farthest and most remote table to sit down so that they could talk more easily. Qianxue Shen hurriedly asked the waiter to serve the food. He picked out some steamed buns, braised pancakes, roasted chicken and roasted duck.
While wiping his chopsticks, he whispered, "I heard people say that the children of Peiqiong Villa are all very elegant and unrestrained. Why does Senior Zhou look so down-to-earth? He must be a fake."
"What do you know? His only son is dead! Let's see if you still behave calmly when your only son dies in the future!" Cai Zhao glared at him fiercely.
Qian Xueshen suddenly sensed Mu Qingyan's displeasure and said sourly, "Just because your fiancé is Master Zhou, you can't protect the entire Zhou family. There are so many children in Peiqiong Villa, it's inevitable that the good will be mixed with the bad..."
"Bah, bah, bah, you have thousands of faces, good and bad, so you will all die in the end, don't drag Peiqiong Villa!"
Cai Zhao held his chopsticks like a knife and said fiercely, "Uncle Zhou grew up with my aunt. My aunt still doesn't know who he is. In terms of martial arts, besides Uncle Zhou in Peiqiong Villa, he is the one who led the crowd against Nie Hengcheng. As a party member, Uncle Zhou is assisting you. It’s life and death. In terms of character, his wife has been ill for many years, but he never leaves her and takes good care of her - isn’t it a hundred times better than your sect of ghosts, ghosts and snake gods named Qian! "
"Okay, okay, everyone surnamed Zhou is a gentleman, right?" Qian Xueshen was almost spitted by the oncoming spit, "Mr. Mu, you should take care of her. We are the ones who will fight her through life and death later. But she only focuses on Zhou."
Mu Qingyan seemed not to have heard their quarrel, and turned his head in thought, "I have nothing to say, Master Zhou Zhiqin - his son died at the turn of summer and autumn last year, and soon after, the mountain was closed by heavy winter snow, making it impossible for humans and animals to go up the mountain. Peqiong Villa is in the south, and it takes at least two months to get here, so it is reasonable for him to arrive at the Snowy Mountains at this time."
"But he seems to be at odds with Jin Baohui of the Si Qi Clan. Is there any story behind this?"
Cai Zhao thought for a moment: "My mother said this. Back then, this man named Jin was the brother-in-law of the old sect leader Yang, and he always put on airs of elders in front of my aunt and the others. He also liked to raise vicious dogs, vultures, poisonous pythons, and the like. Sometimes things happen that hurt the people, and Master and Uncle Zhou both dislike him."
"Actually, it's not a bad thing to raise pets, but since the animals he raises are all vicious things, they should be well controlled and not allowed to hurt innocent people. Later, one time, his vicious dog bit several young children to death. My aunt said In anger, he chased after Si Qimen, killed all his pets, and broke one of his arms and legs. After that, he didn't dare to show off anymore."
Mu Qingyan sneered: "If you kill someone else's child, will you be done with one arm and one leg?"
Cai Zhao was helpless: "Actually, my aunt wanted to pay for the murderer's life, but the old sect leader Yang blocked her life and death, threatened and begged, so the master took my aunt away. The old sect leader Yin persuaded my aunt, Beichen Liu The factions are working together to fight against Nie Hengcheng, let Auntie focus on the overall situation, and not allow any rift between the six factions to develop."
Mu Qingyan snorted coldly.
Qianxue gnawed on the chicken leg and said vaguely: "So, this senior Zhou is not only a very nice person, but also good at martial arts. This is a good thing. We are going to the Snowy Mountains and we need a powerful helper. By the way, where is that senior Dongfang?" , Is he powerful?"
Cai Zhao said happily: "Of course it's awesome. Back then, Wulin Zhengdao issued a killing order to an unknown elder of the Demon Sect. Senior Dongfang made great contributions!"
Mu Qingyan squinted: "You don't have to be polite. It was your aunt who issued the killing order. Don't you know?"
Cai Zhao was shocked: "Really? My aunt didn't mention it - she only said how people in the righteous path traced the clues and how they uprooted the strongholds of the elder who had done all the evil deeds and eliminated all his numerous disciples. Intercept and kill, and finally block the bad elder and kill him." At first, she only listened to the legendary stories after dinner.
Mu Qingyan was angry and funny: "This is the killing order issued by your aunt, to hunt down Elder Tianji Duan Jiuxiu - Dongfang Xiao will of course try his best, because it is this man who seriously injured Taoist Yunzhuan and massacred Qingfeng Temple. Elder Duan."
Qian Xueshen struggled to tear off two duck legs and continued to chew on them, "I didn't expect Lady Cai to be so decisive and fierce, blatantly killing a seven-star elder, and the Demon Sect could only watch with a blank stare."
Mu Qingyan: "If it were other elders, the Divine Religion couldn't just watch, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. But this Elder Duan, Nie Hengcheng must have stood by and watched."
"Why is this?" Cai Zhaoqi asked.
"Because Duan Jiuxiu is also my great-grandfather's adopted son."
Cai Zhao groaned and leaned back.
Mu Qingyan continued: "Duan Jiuxiu and Nie Hengcheng are both the adopted sons of my great-grandfather, but Nie Hengcheng always suppressed him. In the end, my great-grandfather also chose Nie Hengcheng as the Dharma King, and Duan Jiuxiu could only be ranked as one of the seven-star elders. How could he be willing to do so? For decades, he has been constantly opposing Nie Hengcheng, and he has also recruited disciples to form his own faction, just to regain his position from Nie Hengcheng one day."
