As soon as he walked out of the gate, Pan Suxuan grabbed Zhao Niantong and turned him to a corner, asking anxiously: "What on earth is going on? What happened to you in Buzhuang? Why did you find so many inns?" What's going on in the competition three days later? Don't hide it, tell me quickly!"
Zhao Niantong said angrily: "Brother, let go first, you are hurting me! Besides, you ask so many questions in one breath, how can I answer you?"
Pan Suxuan calmed down his tone and said, "Okay, don't be in a hurry. Let's start from the moment we enter Buzhuang and talk slowly."
Therefore, Zhao Niantong told everything about how he talked to Wang Rong in Buzhuang and how he learned that the daughter of the general protecting the country was competing in a martial arts competition to find a bride. After hearing this, Pan Suxuan asked: "Then why are you looking for inns everywhere as soon as you come out?"
Zhao Niantong replied: "Isn't this what I want to verify? Is there really such a thing as a martial arts competition? That girl Wang said that the inn was full of people from all walks of life who came to compete in martial arts. It turns out that it is true. I deliberately walked from the west to Dong visited three inns in a row, but none of them had any vacancies, and if you look closely, you will find that most of the people living in the rooms are armed, and they really look like people who travel around the world."
Pan Suxuan said: "So, what this Miss Wang said is true? Is the daughter of the general protecting the country really going to fight to find a bride?"
Zhao Niantong said: "Yes, this is not the fourth inn, and I met this big man with a certain surname... Listening to what he said, it was confirmed that there is indeed such a thing as a martial arts competition."
Pan Suxuan lowered his voice and said softly: "His surname is Xiao. Junior sister, this person is not simple. Not only does he have great kung fu, but he is also quite scheming. It is still unclear whether he is an enemy or a friend, so we cannot take it lightly."
Zhao Niantong said in confusion: "Brother, this big guy Xiao has some skills, I can see it, but you said he has scheming, I don't understand, how can you see it?"
Pan Suxuan said: "Junior sister, did you ever talk to me before Young Master Xiao entered the inn?"
Zhao Niantong said: "No."
Pan Suxuan said: "Then did you find that I followed you into the inn?"
Zhao Niantong said: "No."
Pan Suxuan said: "Then do you think anyone will notice that I am following you?"
Zhao Niantong said slightly impatiently: "Probably not. Senior brother, what are you going to say?"
Pan Suxuan said seriously: "Before Mr. Xiao came in, you didn't talk to me, and you didn't know that I was already in this inn. No one else noticed that I was following you. In other words, no one in this inn knew that I was following you. You know that the two of us know each other and are companions, right?"
Zhao Niantong nodded. Pan Suxuan continued: "But when Mr. Xiao came in, he never asked you whether we knew each other. In just a few words, he could see through the relationship between you and me. Do you think he is thoughtful and scheming? "
Zhao Niantong was also puzzled when he heard it, and said: "Yes, he said that you and I should go to him together after everything is done. This means that he knew that we were companions, so he invited us together. This is strange, senior brother, you said How did he know?"
Pan Suxuan shook his head and said: "I don't know either. There is something weird about this person. You and I need to pay more attention."
Zhao Niantong nodded and said: "Yes, senior brother, you are right. This big man Xiao will also participate in the martial arts competition to recruit a bride in three days. We just need to be more careful then."
Pan Suxuan smiled and said: "Brother Zhao, it sounds like you are going to compete in martial arts to find a bride? If you outsmart the others in the martial arts competition and defeat this rich lady, do you want to marry her home?"
Zhao Niantong was stunned after hearing this, and then smiled: "Who said I was going to compete on the stage? I just went to see the excitement. It was not easy to go down the mountain once, and when I arrived in a prosperous city like Jinling, I happened to catch up with the general who protects the country. My daughter is competing in a martial arts contest to recruit a bride. If you miss such a big event, you may never see it again in your life. So, Brother Pan, please don’t persuade me. I have to go to this contest to recruit a bride!"
Pan Suxuan said sternly: "You can go, but we must first complete what the master told us. We must not miss the main business."
Hearing this, Zhao Niantong said with a slight displeasure: "Brother, what did the master tell you? You have been mysterious all the way. You didn't tell me no matter how much I asked you. You always told me to talk to you in Jinling. Now. We’ve arrived at Jinling, can you tell me now?”
Pan Suxuan shook his head and smiled: "There is a reason why I won't tell you. The master told us to send a letter to a senior named Chen before the tenth day of March. If I tell you this matter, according to your temper, I must have been unable to control my curiosity along the way, so I had to open this letter and read it. Wouldn't this be against the teacher's orders?"
Pan Suxuan only told half of the mission, and omitted what the master later told him about the need to help him if he saw him in trouble. Because according to his feeling, this senior was probably visited by an enemy, and after learning about it, the master sent himself to warn him. But for some reason, the master decided to take Zhao Niantong down the mountain with him. Wouldn't this put her in danger? He thought about this problem all the way but still couldn't figure it out. But no matter what, he has decided that if there is any situation, he will just come forward and he cannot let his junior sister take risks...
Zhao Niantong was still in the dark about all this and said unconvinced: "Why is this disobeying the master's order? Master Xin didn't say not to let others see it first? Maybe if we see it first, we can prepare something in advance. Woolen cloth?"
Pan Suxuan said: "Master didn't say it verbally, but he said it in the letter. If you don't believe it, just read it." After saying that, he took out an envelope from his arms and saw five big characters written vigorously on the envelope - "Brother Xiaotian Dear Kai".
Zhao Niantong looked at the envelope, frowned, and murmured: "Xiaotian? Chen Xiaotian?! Why does this name sound so familiar..."
Pan Suxuan asked in confusion: "What? Junior sister, do you know this senior?"
Zhao Niantong said: "I don't know it, but I feel like I heard this name somewhere. I can't remember it. Where is it... By the way, the general who protects the country who is going to hold a competition for his daughter to find a bride seems to be called Chen Xiaotian ?!”
Pan Suxuan said loudly: "Is this true?!"
Zhao Niantong said: "Brother, can I still lie to you? I heard with my own ears that Miss Wang told me that their master's name is Chen Xiaotian!"
Pan Suxuan was overjoyed and said: "If this is the case, then we really can't find anything without breaking through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get here! You and I will quickly return to the Chen Mansion to pay homage to this senior!"
Zhao Niantong also said happily: "Exactly, let's go and finish what the master told us, and then we can go shopping as we like and watch the martial arts competition! Senior brother, let's go quickly!"
The two men immediately turned around and ran towards the General's Mansion...
