Bai Boju waited for a long time and saw Yang Fan walking into the dining hall and walking towards him.
"Brother Bai, you've been waiting for a long time. Our sect leader has invited you."
Following Yangfan towards the back hall of Thorny Gate, Bai Boju murmured in his mind: He is famous in the world for not causing trouble, what should he do to him? Asked Yangfan, Yangfan said that he had only met the new sect owner once and didn't know what the sect owner was planning.
Arrived at the back hall. The back hall of Thorny Gate is quite grand, with many antiques, calligraphy and paintings. There was a desk by the window. Agarwood sat beside it, looking down at something. When she heard the two people coming in, she raised her head.
Yangfan raised his hands and said, "Master, Master Bai is here."
"Okay," Agarwood's voice was emotionless, "Yangfan, go and do your work."
Yangfan turned around and walked out of the back hall and closed the door.
"Master Bai, I've been presumptuous in keeping you waiting for so long."
Bai Boju waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
Chen Xiangzhi motioned Bai Boju to sit down, and then said, "I heard that the three girls sent by Changfeng Tower are in your house."
"Ah..." Although this matter was not a secret, he felt that it was a bit abrupt to ask, "Yes, it is indeed there."
"Excuse me, what are Changfeng Tower's plans?"
This question was naturally about eighteen years ago.
Bai Boju smiled and shook his head: "I don't want to interfere with family affairs. To be honest with Clan Master Shen, when I set out to come to Thorn Clan, my sister and brother-in-law were discussing with three girls. As for the outcome of the discussion, I have to wait until I get back. Only the family can know.”
Chen Xiangzhi took out a letter and handed it to Bai Boju: "I wrote this letter to Changfeng Tower. I hope Mr. Bai will deliver it to you."
"I will hand it over with my own hands next time."
"Mr. Bai, the old master of the sect has just passed away, and the affairs in the sect are complicated, so it is inconvenient to keep the young master."
This was to thank the guests, so Bai Boju said wisely: "In that case, I will take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the back hall, said goodbye to Yangfan, and hurried back to Luoyang.
After saying goodbye to Bai Boju, Yang Fan came to the back hall. Master Feng just told him to go to the back hall to find the master of the house after bidding farewell to Bai Boju.
Seeing Yang Fan come in, Chen Xiangzhi put down the book in his hand and said to him: "Yang Fan, the old sect master said you are a rare master in the sect."
Yang Fan replied: "The old sect master is so flattering. I have some skills."
"It is also said that you are intelligent and good at thinking."
Yang Fan just nodded without answering.
Chen Xiangzhi continued: "Tomorrow, you and Xiong San will accompany me to Luzhou."
Yang Fan frowned and said, "The old sect leader has just passed away. As the new sect leader, it's not a good idea to leave at this time, right?"
"This is what the old sect master meant."
"May I ask what we are doing in Luzhou?"
"The old sect owner always wanted to grow the Thorn Sect during his lifetime. He has been operating it for many years. It's time to open a branch."
"Opening in Luzhou?"
"right."
"Okay, I'll go tell Xiong San and make preparations."
"Go ahead."
After Yangfan left the back hall, Chen Xiangzhi took out a small medicine bottle from his sleeve, poured out a pill and put it into his mouth. She opened the book again, and what she was reading now was the information about Ye Yu Xiaozhu that Qiao Fei had collected over the years. Although it was collected over many years, it didn't contain much content. It only recorded who they had killed over the years. Except for a few "grievances" that caused a sensation in the world and the buyer could be guessed, for the rest, it is almost impossible to guess who the murderer is.
With so many things to think about, let’s go to Luzhou first.
…
Amber's health is no longer serious, but her appetite seems to have increased again. During dinner, Pang Coral looked at Amber eating, shook her head and said, "This girl has a big appetite. She will have to marry a rich man in the future."
After dinner, Li Fenglan had already gone to rest. After not sleeping for two days and one night, and being ambushed again, she couldn't bear it.
Amber couldn't sleep at all, and a surge of internal energy was about to burst out of her body. She sat on a small stone bench in the back garden of White Eagle Villa, closed her eyes and adjusted her breath. Amber is very lazy when it comes to practicing martial arts, as Jade said. Being able to practice kung fu to this point all depends on talent. She had basically never practiced the internal skills assigned to her by Chen Yi. But after Zhang Chengqing's marrow cleansing at noon, Hu Bo knew that her internal strength would be useless without adjusting her breath. Currently she is like a small bottle that holds far more water than she can hold.
Zhu Mingyu watched from a distance. It wasn't until Amber let out a long breath that he came closer.
"Miss Amber, how are you?"
Amber scratched the back of his head and said, "I don't know exactly. I always feel like I have endless energy."
Zhu Mingyu asked a little jealously: "Girl, can I ask you a question?"
"sure."
"Besides your good internal skills, how are your martial arts moves?"
Amber smiled mysteriously and said, "Daozhang Zhu, we can pass two moves. You use your Qingfengguan swordsmanship."
Zhu Mingyu felt that idleness was nothing but idleness. It would only take a few moves. He broke off two branches of about the same length from the nearby tree, threw one to Amber, and said, "Let's use this as a sword."
Amber took the branch and said, "Okay, Taoist Zhu, please take action."
Zhu Mingyu was not polite and used Qingfeng Guan's Qingfeng Sword Jue to stab Amber. Amber just blocked at first, and then started to counterattack after about ten rounds. The two of them were just sparring with sword moves and didn't use their internal strength, so it was relatively easy for them. But after more than fifty moves, Zhu Mingyu said he would stop.
The reason for stopping was simple. He knew the level of Amber's martial arts moves - the fifty moves just now, except for the few swords he blocked at the beginning, and the remaining forty or so moves, Amber used Qingfeng Sword Technique.
Zhu Mingyu broke into a cold sweat: fighting and learning at the same time? Did you learn Qingfeng Sword Technique to the tune of fifty moves? What kind of monster is this?
Amber turned the branch around in her hands, with a proud but innocent smile on her face: "This is my ability, I can learn everything very quickly... But, I always can't remember it, maybe after two or three I forgot all about it."
Zhu Mingyu looked at the branch in his hand. He felt that the previous twenty years of his life might have been in vain. Although he likes Xianyun Yehe, he also has some pursuits in martial arts. He is already a master among masters at a young age, which actually makes him very proud of himself. Now, standing in front of him is a girl who is younger than him, has better swordsmanship than him, and has unparalleled internal strength. This makes Zhu Mingyu very frustrated.
But he still didn't give up and asked Amber: "Miss Amber, do you think Miss Jade's martial arts is better than yours?"
"Yes, Sister Jade's swordsmanship and body skills are very powerful. Aunt Zhou said that Sister Jade is already more powerful than she was back then."
Zhu Mingyu asked: "Who is this Aunt Zhou?"
"When Aunt Zhou was traveling in the world, others called her the Sword Fairy."
Zhu Mingyu threw the branch away with a warm smile on his face: Hey, what about martial arts? Qingfengguan Taoism is also very strong. People in the Taoist sect should not always fight and kill.
"It's really jealous." A cold male voice came. It was the morning mist. He stood in the shadow of the garden and watched the whole contest between the two.
The warm smile on Zhu Mingyu's face disappeared. Instead, there was an expression of helplessness and resignation. He echoed: "Yes, comparison of people is irritating. God rewards hard work, but in the face of talent, it is worthless."
Chen Wu walked to the place where the lantern could shine. The expression on his face did not change. He was still cold. He said, "Yes, following Li Fenglan is a good thing. I wonder how many more surprises she can bring me."
Amber made a face at him and said disdainfully: "What do you mean my lady gives you so many surprises? You are obviously manipulated by her."
Chenwu gave a cold "hum", turned around and left without saying anything.
Zhu Mingyu also began to admire Amber's way of speaking, without any shame.
Amber said to Zhu Mingyu mysteriously: "Master Mingyu, I also have something to ask you."
Zhu Mingyu asked, "Why did you call me Taoist Master Mingyu again?"
"It looks more friendly this way."
"...What do you want to ask me?"
"At noon, you said, 'Let's appreciate the jade later.' Don't you think there's something wrong with that?"
Zhu Mingyu thought for a long time and asked, "Any questions?"
"Yes! Isn't your name 'Mingyu'? Why are you so embarrassed to make fun of other people's names?"
Zhu Mingyu looked at Amber blankly, and Amber smiled happily, as if he had won a fight with someone. After a long time, Zhu Mingyu asked: "Is this what you want to ask?"
"Yes, yes. I have been thinking about it for a long time. Mingyu is also jade, right?"
Until now, Zhu Mingyu finally understood Amber's brain circuitry. She was not ordinary innocent, but the kind of innocent whose brain was a little hard to use... But how did she remember those complicated moves and internal skills? It's right to think about it. Zhu Mingyu's eldest brother, the seventh, is the dullest and dullest among the brothers. He can't understand other people's voice-overs, speaks hesitantly, and does things carelessly. However, he is very good at chess, and I have never seen him lose. God is fair. If he gives you something, he will always take something away. Kohaku is the kind of person who had most of his brain taken away, and then filled the empty space with martial arts talent.
Zhu Mingyu said: "Miss Hu Hu, you look so much like my senior brother."
Normal people should ask "Who is your senior brother?", or "How do I look like your senior brother?"
Amber's answer was: "Hahaha, then you have to call me Senior Sister from now on!"
"Miss Amber, you must chat with me more when you are fine."
"Why?"
"I can age slower."
"oh……"
Early the next morning, Li Fenglan and others were ready to leave for Shaolin Temple after resting.
Outside the gate, Shi Jinsong looked at the three good horses and his mouth watered with joy.
"Hehehe, Lao Qi, senior brother's love for you is not in vain."
This time it was Zhu Mingyu who rolled his eyes: "Brother, three horses for one mule cart, is this a good deal?"
Shi Jinsong shook his head happily: "No loss, no loss! Oh, senior brother, I have seen some money back in these years."
Pang Hualou patted Shi Jinsong on the head: "Don't be poor." Then he said to Li Fenglan and the others: "Sister Fenglan, it's not far from here to Songshan Mountain, so be careful on the way."
"Thank you for your concern, Sister Coral."
"It's getting late, you guys hurry up and get on your way. Sister won't leave you here. We can move around more when we have time in the future."
"Definitely."
Zhu Mingyu had already climbed onto the donkey, Hu Huo had jumped into the mule carriage early, Mu Yun was sitting outside the carriage, and he was responsible for driving.
Li Fenglan turned around and got into the car, and Mu Yun handed over the scabbard. Of course he knew that Li Fenglan was extremely talented and did not need his help, but he was too kind-hearted and would definitely help if he could. Li Fenglan didn't live up to others' good intentions, so she pulled the scabbard and got into the car.
However, Li Fenglan frowned slightly when she saw Mu Yun pulling her.
Li Fenglan stood outside the carriage and said goodbye to Shi Jinsong and his wife. The carriage slowly started moving and set off in the direction of Songshan Mountain.
After leaving the Yingzui Mountain boundary, Li Fenglan remembered Mu Yun's frown and asked, "Mr. Mu Yun, what did you mean when you frowned just now?"
"Oh..." Mu Yun replied, "It's a bit unexpected."
"What's the surprise?"
"Miss Li, you are much heavier than you look."
There was silence in the carriage. Zhu Mingyu burst out laughing, and then laughed louder and louder. Mu Yun looked at Zhu Mingyu who was leaning forward and back with laughter, and she didn't know why.
Zhu Mingyu wiped away the tears from laughter and said to Mu Yun: "Brother Mu Yun, although I am a monk...but, there is something I have to teach you."
"What's up?"
"Don't say girls are heavy."
"But...heavy is heavy, light is light."
"Hey... you will understand when you have a sweetheart in the future."
In the carriage, Hu Bo asked Li Fenglan: "Miss, are you overweight? Have you gained weight recently?"
"No." This was Li Fenglan's slightly annoyed voice.
Li Fenglan held her forehead and thought: One speaks too seriously, and the other speaks without leaving any room for others. If they could meet, they would definitely be able to talk.
