Although he didn't have much contact with her, he also knew Qiang Yun's character very well. Unlike her sister who is calm and dignified, Qiang Yun is lively and active, willful and unwilling to admit defeat. Even the king of heaven dares to fight.
He later learned that Sima Ling'er and Qiang Xia were chatting with each other at Wanjianmen last time and mentioned him. He said that although he was young, his level was not low, and he even saved Ling'er's life.
Qiang Yun, who was on the side, was very unconvinced and immediately wanted to challenge him, so there was a fight in the garden. At that time, Qiang Yun also ordered his servants that no one was allowed to help.
However, the little girl still thinks Zhou Yang is an insidious spy.
Qiang Yun was running around everywhere, and Qiang Xia couldn't watch her, so she could only tell her to let her go.
Almost no one touched the spiritual fruits on the table, but Qiang Yun was not the case. He only looked for the expensive ones to eat, and even picked and picked them up, pulling them back and forth, which made the funeral deacon and the handyman disciples roll their eyes.
Zhou Yang held back his laughter and stared at her for a while. Then with a thought, he picked up a plate of spiritual fruits on the table, brought it to Qiang Yun and said, "Second Miss, please use it!"
Qiangyun Jingjie is low and would not recognize him.
"Do you know me?" Qiang Yun stared at Zhou Yang and asked suspiciously.
"Haha, of course, Miss Qiang Yun is famous far and wide. Who in Anping City doesn't know about it? I also know that your sister and our sect's Miss Ling'er talk about everything and they are a pair of good sisters." Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Which Xuanfu Sect are you from, and what is your name?"
"Next week, I will be a disciple of the Xuanfu Sect's alchemy room."
"Hmph! It turns out you're from the alchemy room. Seeing how you talk glibly and don't do your job properly, no wonder you're still working as a handyman after decades." Qiang Yun has a small mouth and is unforgiving. He originally disliked people from the Xuanfu Sect, but now he is here His surname is Zhou, so he is naturally sarcastic and unbridled.
Zhou Yang snickered in his heart, this second young lady was quite outspoken and not afraid of offending the Xuanfu Sect. She must not be ashamed of Zhou Yuanzheng's behavior and was fighting for Sima Ling'er.
"I have been immersed in the art of alchemy for a long time, so I have delayed my cultivation. My realm is not high, so of course I can only do a handyman." Zhou Yang shrugged.
"Hmph, I was born to be a handyman!" Qiang Yun curled his lips.
"However, I have no choice but to stay in the alchemy room. Old Sima Master has not returned for a long time, and Clan Master Zhou has ascended the throne. Do we have to leave the sect?" Zhou Yang said in a low voice, complaining.
"I have no interest in dealing with your Xuanfu Sect's affairs."
"However, I am loyal to Sect Master Sima, and I am very worried about what happened to Miss Ling'er. I heard that Miss Ling'er is in your family, I wonder if this is the case?" Zhou Yang finally brought the topic to Sima Ling'er.
"It's true, you're not trying to trick me, are you!" Qiang Yunren was a brat and was not fooled.
"My loyalty to Sima Sect Master is evident. If I can help Miss Ling'er, I will do my best!" Zhou Yang swore.
Qiang Yun saw that his attitude was sincere and did not seem to be hypocritical, and that the man was not young yet, and he looked honest and honest, like someone who missed an old relationship, so he believed him a little.
"Sister Ling'er is doing well in our Wanjian Sect. Don't worry, we will protect her." Qiang Yun vowed.
"This will make me feel relieved. I heard that all his guards have been dispersed, so Miss Ling'er must be hiding alone in your house, right?" Zhou Chang continued to talk.
"There are also some protections from Pu Zheng. Our Wanjianmen has allocated a small island to Sister Ling'er as a base for the future restoration of Xuanfu Sect. Pu Zheng and the others will be there on weekdays. By the way, a few days ago, there were a few A disciple of the Xuanfu Sect who went out has also taken refuge with Sister Ling'er." Qiang Yun leaned into Zhou Yang's ear and whispered.
Once she thought Zhou Yang was a good person, she told everything she knew.
"This is good news, but it must be carefully checked. Don't let people with evil intentions get in." Zhou Yang was also happy for Ling'er, but still warned.
"Don't worry, those people are loyal subordinates of Sect Master Sima, they will be fine."
"That's it. Thank you for telling me, Miss. I have two thousand spirit stones here, please pass them to Miss Ling'er." Zhou Yang secretly took out a bag of spirit stones and gave it to Qiang Yun.
"I understand what you mean, but she has no shortage of spirit stones in Wanjianmen, so there's no need for this!" Qiang Yun did not take the bag of spirit stones.
"Although Miss Ling'er is under the care of your family, you can't rely on Wanjianmen for everything. This is just a little thought from me. Please be sure to pass it on."
"Well, your loyalty is commendable, I will definitely give it to her." Qiang Yun heard what Zhou Yang said, and took the bag of spirit stones and put it in his arms.
"Miss, please keep it secret and don't let third parties know."
"I understand. I will also remember you, Zhou Tian." Qiang Yun smiled brightly at Zhou Yang and drifted away like the wind.
"Who is it?" When Qiang Yun came back, Qiang Xia asked with a frown.
"From the Xuanfu Sect's alchemy room."
"What did you say?" Qiang Xia asked.
"Sister, you are taking too much care!" Qiang Yun pouted and said dissatisfied.
"The current situation is complicated. We are elsewhere, so we must be very careful not to be fooled by others!" Qiang Xia really had no choice but to remind her sister Ye Ling.
"I'm not a child, I know what's appropriate."
"It's good to know."
Zhou Yang already had less than 7,000 pieces of spirit stones on his body, but he knew that Ling'er was living in Wanjianmen and had no source of spirit stones, so he took out another 2,000 spirit stones from the palace and gave them to Qiang Yun.
He couldn't take any more. If he owed Gong Zhong too much, he wouldn't be able to explain it back. There are still nearly two months left, and the wages of fifty or sixty mortals must be paid on time, and a large sum of spiritual stones must be paid before and after harvesting.
At noon, the banquet begins. Zhou Yang and other handymen were also busy. In addition to the people at the VIP reception, there were more than a dozen square tables filled with guests.
Zhou Yang and others started busy serving wine and food.
Hu Chengjun ordered the vigil to be held at the funeral, and it was inconvenient for him to go out, so he ordered his son to stand at the table and propose a toast on his behalf.
The banquet went very quickly, and it was not convenient for the guests to stay long on such an occasion. They simply finished eating and then left.
But there are always exceptions to everything. There was a table of people who drank endlessly. Perhaps they had not seen each other for a long time, so they were enjoying themselves and kept asking for wine.
Zhou Yang didn't know the people at the table. He happened to be responsible for delivering the wine to this table, but when he heard what the people at the table said, the wine bottle almost fell to the ground.
"Zhao, Deacon Zhao, don't always cry out for Sima Sect Master. He practices demon... demon..." The man was obviously drunk.
"You don't want to live anymore, shut up!" Another person interrupted him hastily.
"Afraid, whatever you're afraid of, it's all your own."
"Don't you know that this matter is strictly forbidden to be spread to outsiders? Shut up!"
Zhou Yang's heart was filled with turmoil: "What's the devil? Could it be magic power! This, this, this is not true, absolutely not! Successful people are princes and losers are bandits. Successful people belittle the losers. Of course, you can say whatever you want."
He never believed this was true, because he believed in Sima Ling'er. Anyone could lie to him, but Sima Ling'er would not. But the word "magic power" is imprinted deep in my mind, as if it has taken root and cannot be removed.
The people at the table were afraid that the drunkard would say something outrageous again, so they broke up and left.
Although the banquet is over, the funeral is not over yet and will continue for seven days. Therefore, the deacons and handyman disciples did not leave, they still performed their duties and were called upon at any time.
Zhou Yang had no interest in staying, so he found an opportunity and slipped out of the garden. I found my green wolf in the spiritual beast settlement area, told the guard that I had something to do, and left all the way.
But when he walked to the small bridge, there were Xuanfu Sect disciples guarding it.
There was no one there when they arrived because all the guards had gone to the funeral to help. At this time, the luncheon was over and he returned to work.
Two guards stopped Zhou Yang for questioning. He had to say that he had gone out to buy things for the funeral under the orders of the chief funeral director, and the guards let him go.
Zhou Yang breathed a long sigh of relief. If these guards wanted to show their identity tokens, the secret would be revealed. Why would a casual cultivator from Xicheng come to the funeral of an elder? Do you have this qualification?
"It's because of my clothes. What's the old man's purpose?" Although he left the Longtan Tiger's Den, Zhou Yang still had a knot in his heart. The identity of the clean-faced old man made him full of doubts.
He left this area full of thoughts, but instead of returning along the original path, he continued to go north. Because his destination was the mountain gate of Xuanfu Sect, he wanted to take a closer look and see what this turbulent sect looked like.
Both sides of the street have turned into residential houses of different heights and sizes. Some have red bricks and blue tiles, and are grand and wealthy, while others are small and exquisite, yet elegant. Looking along the way, I found that the residents in this area live a good life, and it is not a gathering area for lowly cultivators.
After walking for about three or four miles, there was a blue cloth flag flying high in front of us, with the Chinese character "wine" written in big letters on the flag.
It turned out to be a wine shop. It was already past noon and there were not many people in front of the restaurant.
Zhou Yang didn't pay attention and rode the green wolf straight past the door of the wine shop.
At this time, a person also walked out of the wine shop. The person was wearing light blue robes and was in his fifties. He looked up at Zhou Yang who was riding on the green wolf.
Zhou Yang noticed that gaze, turned his head and looked over, and the next moment he couldn't help blurting out: "Uncle!"
The old man was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhou Yang carefully, and then said uncertainly: "Such a familiar scent, you are..."
Zhou Yang also understood that he was now a disguised person, but Master Zhong clearly felt his aura.
Seeing that there was no one around, he hurriedly got off the Green Wolf, walked quickly to his uncle, and whispered: "Uncle, I am Zhou Yang."
"Zhou Yang!" Zhong Pengfei also screamed when he heard this.
"Uncle, please keep your voice down, let's go to the wine shop first," Zhou Yang reminded hurriedly.
Zhong Pengfei also looked around nervously and whispered: "Okay, let's find a private room first and then have a good talk."
Entering the private room, Zhou Yang saluted and paid homage, but Zhong Pengfei said eagerly: "Why are you here and changing your appearance? Where have you been for more than a year? Is Tiehu with you?"
Zhou Yang was also full of excitement, but his uncle asked several questions in a row and didn't know which one to answer first.
"Uncle, I have missed you very much over the past year or so, and Senior Brother Tiehu also misses you very much."
"It's okay. It seems that Tiehu is really with you."
