Everyone watched helplessly as the pair of riders passed the archway and rushed to stop in front of them. They were a middle-aged man and woman.
The man had messy hair tied up on his head, a beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was carrying a broad sword and had a bulging package on his chest. He looked like a wanderer. The woman was a woman with a girlish look, dressed smartly, holding a sword in one hand, showing a dashing and heroic appearance. She raised her leg and flipped up her skirt, and she jumped off the horse.
The bearded man who was carrying a bunch of things also jumped down.
Among the "three flowers" that came first, a woman with small white flowers on her temples looked at the male and female guests, thoughtfully, and seemed to say to herself, "Thieving mandarin ducks..."
Wu Heyun, who was nearby, heard this and showed a look of great surprise. Then he hurried over, reached the visitor, cupped his hands and said: "Wu Heyun at Xia Rift Valley Villa, may I ask if these two are the Zhu family and his wife from Zhu's wine shop?"
The dashing woman smiled and said: "It turns out to be the owner of the third village. No wonder my wife and I were so embarrassed, they were recognized at a glance."
Wu Heyun: "Mrs. Zhu is so complimentary. I wonder why the virtuous couple came here. Is there anything Rift Valley Villa can help with?"
The woman known as Mrs. Zhu said: "The Rift Valley Villa makes wine and sells wine, and our wine shop also makes wine and sells wine. Our colleagues are not necessarily enemies. The three owners of the village don't think that our couple are here to cause trouble, right?" ?”
Wu Heyun laughed loudly and said: "How could it be possible? Although our two families are in the same industry, we sell different things. We sell fine grape wine here and sell common things, but you and your wife specialize in brewing spiritual wine, so we can't be enemies."
Mrs. Zhu: "The owners of the three villages are right. There is no conflict between your and my business. Therefore, I would like to discuss cooperation with your village. I wonder if your village is interested?"
"Cooperation?" Wu Heyun was a little surprised and asked doubtfully: "How do you want to cooperate?"
Mrs. Zhu: "Only selling spiritual wine is too monotonous. I want to introduce your winery to our wine shop for sale, so I came here to have a look."
"It's easy to talk. If you don't mind, please come in and talk slowly and in detail."
Wu Heyun was chatting and laughing, waving his hand, and someone immediately came over to hold the horse for the couple.
As for the couple, Mrs. Zhu glanced at everyone present, then looked back at the horseman coming slowly on the road, "Third owner of the village, why did the man herding sheep by Sapphire Lake move? He is usually the same as Split. Are there people coming and going from Gushan Villa?"
Wu Heyun looked surprised again and looked at the slow visitor, "Is that Ning Chaoyi?"
Mrs. Zhu saw his reaction and said, "Even the owner of the third village doesn't know. It seems that I have misunderstood."
Wu Hejun turned around and said to his entourage: "You should take a few distinguished guests to the living room to rest first. Don't neglect." Then he was polite to the couple and the three-flowered flower, "The distinguished guests will go and wait for a while. I'm here." Wait for Mr. Ning first."
The woman in black with white flowers on her temples said: "It's okay. I heard that this sheepherder rarely leaves the shore of Sapphire Lake. Since we have met him, there is no harm in waiting."
Neither of the other two women around her expressed any objection.
Mrs. Zhu, who held the sword in her hand, crossed her arms in front of her chest and had no intention of leaving.
The attitude of a group of guests made the servants who were waiting for them uncomfortable, and they didn't know what to do.
Wu Heyun waved to retreat. Since they are willing to wait, let's wait together.
The three brothers Yu Qing looked at each other. They didn't recognize the couple who opened the wine shop or the Sanzhihua that filled the building, or they had never heard of it. There are many capable people in the world of spiritual practice, and there are countless people coming and going, but who can possibly have heard of them all? What's more, there is a high probability that they are monks from the Yin Kingdom.
However, they had heard of the sheepherder named Ning Chaoyi by Sapphire Lake.
Every time a few years pass in the spiritual world, there will be a martial arts competition, and anyone who meets the requirements can participate. It can be said to be an opportunity for the world's new talents to stand out. Once every twenty years, twenty years is enough time for a generation to grow up, enough time for rookies to compete again.
That Ning Chaoyi was fifth in the last conference, and the next conference will be only a year later. In other words, the conference where Ning Chaoyi became famous was already nearly twenty years ago in the blink of an eye.
That kind of martial arts competition brings together young talents from all over the world to compete. There are countless famous people participating. Even Sinan Mansion, Dayesi, and Qianliu Mountain will have new people participating in each session, and they can win the fifth place. As you can imagine, the name is already a very remarkable thing.
Seeing that he had become famous, countless people would pay huge sums of money to recruit him, but he went crazy, looking for an opportunity to bring down his master, and wiped out his master's family. Then he left all his fame and wealth behind and went to Lanzhou. The days of sheep herding were spent on the bank of Baohu Lake, where the sky was vast and the fields were vast, and there was little contact with the outside world.
Rumor has it that the reason why he went crazy was because he discovered that his master had raped and killed his wife and silenced her.
I don’t know if it’s true or not, but the rumor is indeed widespread.
This Ning Chaoyi was able to stand out among a group of famous disciples twenty years ago, and his strength twenty years later is even more conceivable.
Therefore, the three brothers were also very curious and stopped where they were, waiting to see what Mr. Ning was like.
The sound of horse hooves is slow, and when the sound of hooves can be heard, one person and one rider have already arrived at the foot of the archway.
The visitor slowly swayed on the horse, with his hair tied into a simple ponytail and a mustache. Nan Zhu and Mu Aotie looked familiar. They couldn't help but look back at Yu Qing, and noticed that the two men had The styles are somewhat similar.
But obviously, his look is more natural, not pretentious, and he is of the right age. With the faint smile hanging on his mature face, he looks quite attractive no matter how you look at it, unlike Yu Qing's mustache that looks awkward.
However, Yu Qing obviously didn't think so. After seeing the other party's dress, he found that it looked good and pretty. He couldn't help but touch his mustache. There was obvious appreciation in his eyes, which seemed to strengthen his own aesthetics. vision.
The visitor also held a balalaika in his arms, which was as simple as his clothes. He played casual tunes and entertained himself all the way. It looked like he was leisurely and unhurried. .
The sound of the piano stopped, the horses stopped, and Wu Heyun also arrived and said with his hands raised: "Wu Heyun, the owner of the third village of Xia Rift Valley Villa, may I ask if the person here is Mr. Ning from Sapphire Lake?"
Ning nodded towards Yi, "It's me, what are you..." He also jumped off the horse.
Wu Heyun looked back at everyone and said with a smile: "Of course I welcome Mr. Ning."
Ning Chaoyi's face was full of surprise, "You know I'm coming?"
Mrs. Zhu said: "I saw the teacher on the way. His appearance was similar to the rumors, so I boldly guessed that it was the teacher."
"Oh." Ning Chaoyi looked like that, and then said to Wu Heyun: "Third Villa Master, I was wandering alone. I heard that Rift Valley Villa had all kinds of grape wine. I was greedy, so I took a turn to smell the wine. I've come around a corner, I wonder if your winery can be sold in bulk, I can't afford any more."
Wu Heyun said with a smile: "Mr. Ning can come, and the Rift Valley Villa will be full of glory. The visitor is a guest, so naturally he will be treated with fine wine. When Mr. Ning leaves, if you think the taste is good, you may as well take some with you for free."
"How about that? One code is one code, and you can pay as much as you want."
Ning Chao Yi, who was holding Qin, shook his head to express his disapproval.
"Okay, just do as you say. Sir, this is not the place to talk. Go inside and rest first. If you have anything to say, talk later."
Wu Heyun warmly invited.
Ning Zhaoyi's nose moved and he looked at the almost extinguished fire, "This smell... could burn people to death?"
"Hey, maybe you have heard about the Rift Valley Villa. Monsters often come and harass you, and they appeared again last night..."
Wu Heyun sighed and told the story of the boy being killed by the monster again. The reason for the cremation was the same as what he told Yu Qing and others. Without saying much, he explained and invited the guests to rest together again.
The group of people left. Yu Qing and others stayed where they were to watch. They didn’t know the new guests. It was one thing not to force their way in and join in the fun. The key was not to look familiar everywhere. I wish I could remember them during this trip. The fewer people there are, the better.
"Do Rift Valley Villas always have so many guests?" Yu Qing muttered to himself.
Several people present really don’t know this question.
Nanzhu said: "It seems they are all famous people. Let me go and find out." He dropped the words and shamelessly chased after those people.
After looking at the scene where the ashes were collected, Yu Qing slowly turned his head to look at the village, looking at the children running around and playing in the village from time to time. Finally, he turned and left without expression, taking Qiao Qie'er and Mu Ao with him. The iron is back.
After the three of them returned to their respective rooms, Yu Qing stood on the balcony and looked at the vast grape fields, feeling in a trance.
Qiao Qieer was sitting quietly on a chair in the room, seeming to be a little distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.
After being distracted for a long time, a sudden knock on the door brought Yu Qing back to his senses. When he walked back into the house, Qiao Qie'er had already opened the door, and there was Nanzhu outside.
Nanzhu nodded and said hello, then entered the room, walked quickly to Yu Qing, nodded and said: "I have found out the origins of those people, and they are all weird people."
"Weird?" Yu Qing was puzzled. He looked quite normal. "What do you mean?"
Nanzhu asked back: "We have all heard about Ning Chaoyi from Sapphire Lake. He killed his masters and wiped out his family without giving up his wealth, and then went to the lake to graze. Isn't it weird? The two groups of people who came in front were even weirder, and those three A woman as beautiful as a flower, and that three-flowered flower all over the house, do you know who they are? They are the daughter of a daughter."
Yu Qing was stunned and didn't understand, "What is the relationship between daughter and daughter?"
Nanzhu changed the explanation: "Daughter, mother, and grandmother, do you understand now? The three of them are a family. This is their generation. Can't you see it through three generations? The one who looks the youngest is the one who wears the most fancy clothes. The one exposed is named Lou Yushu. Can you tell that she is the oldest grandmother? Do you know how old she is? She seems to be almost a hundred years old."
"..." Yu Qing was indeed a little confused. After thinking about the scene of the three women, he really couldn't imagine it.
"The one in the middle is the one wearing black clothes and a small white flower, named Lu Xingyun. Then the one in the light green skirt is the youngest, named Shen Qingcheng. Except for themselves, no one knows about these two Who is the father of this woman? The ways of getting rich for three generations can be said to be passed down from generation to generation. It is really the mother who taught her well. They all make money by seducing men.
The couple surnamed Zhu is also quite interesting. The man's name is Zhu Kuanzhen, and the woman's name is Nie Pinlan, nicknamed "Thief Yuanyang".
It is said that the two were childhood sweethearts when they were young. Later, due to the chaos in the world, the two separated, and each had their own families and got married. Later, when the two met again, Nie Pinlan actually killed her husband and Zhu Kuanzhen's wife. Then the two reunited and continued their childhood sweetheart relationship. After such an incident, Nie Pinlan was called a "thief" mandarin duck'. The two of them were indeed winemakers, collecting various spiritual herbs and the like to make a living from brewing spiritual wine. "
After listening to the story, Yu Qing and Qiao Qier were both stunned. They didn't expect a group of such people to suddenly come.
After a while, Yu Qing let out a sigh, "They are indeed weird people, and you can't see them among normal people. How could these weird people appear together, and they all come here just for the sake of wine? Weren’t we in the same group?”
Nanzhu chuckled: "They are all such unique people, who can be so capable of bringing them together?"
