When the three of them came to the hall, all the heroes had already dispersed, and Jiang Yulang, the only one left in the hall, also walked out quickly.
Jiang Yingying met her father and asked, "Dad, where are you going?"
Jiang Yulang smiled and replied: "Someone wrote a letter and invited me to the temple on the west side of the city for a while."
Jiang Yingying asked: "Dad, who is so arrogant?"
Jiang Yulang said: "I didn't mention it in the letter. I said I'd know it as soon as we see it."
Hu Yanqing said: "Uncle Jiang, is there anything wrong with this...?"
Jiang Yulang said: "Oh! My virtuous niece, please speak out if you have anything to say."
Hu Yanqing said: "Uncle Jiang, the martial arts conference is about to be held. Heroes from all walks of life are rushing to Zhengyi Villa non-stop, just to not miss the date of the martial arts alliance. It's okay if this person doesn't come to Zhengyi Villa to visit you, but he wants you to go to Zhengyi Villa. When I meet him in the temple, he is either arrogant or has no good intentions. According to my niece, there seems to be something wrong with Uncle Jiang's trip, so it would be better not to go."
Jiang Yingying echoed: "Dad, Sister Qing is right. As the host of this martial arts alliance, Justice Villa is the host. No matter how noble the other party is, he should come to Justice Villa to visit you first, not you who leave the village. Go and meet him. This person is so ignorant of etiquette. He must not have any good intentions. Dad doesn’t need to pay attention to him."
Jiang Yulang smiled softly and said: "Forget it, just don't understand if people don't understand. Promoting the martial arts alliance is more important than anything else." He walked towards the gate of the manor, his back seemed a little dignified, and his steps were not very cheerful. , as if he had guessed who he was going to meet.
Zhang Yan'er felt an indescribable discomfort as she watched Jiang Yulang's back disappear. She vaguely felt that a pair of malicious eyes were staring at him from behind, knowing everything he said and did. Seeing that Jiang Yingying didn't care much about her father leaving the manor, she wanted to remind him based on her own feelings, so she said, "Yingying, did your father take the wrong path?"
Jiang Yingying was confused and asked: "Sister Yan, why did you go the wrong way?"
Zhang Yaner said: "This martial arts alliance is a union of righteous people with the intention of destroying the evil Dragon Slaying Association. If that person is a righteous person, he should come to the village to visit your father first, as Sister Qing said, Then your father was asked to go to some mountain temple to meet him. Since the meeting was not public, that person must not be a good person. Uncle Jiang must have gone the wrong way when he went to see him."
Jiang Yingying said in surprise: "You mean my father is in danger?"
Hu Yanqing said very seriously: "Yingying, if your father is really a knight-errant, he may be in danger."
Jiang Yingying said: "Sister Qing, what are you talking about? My father is a true knight and a hero. I think that since my father mistakenly fell into a trap and harmed Uncle Bai twenty years ago, in order to seek forgiveness for himself, he The two characters "Heaven and Earth" swear in front of them that from now on they will live a correct life and never do anything that harms family and friendship. In the past twenty years, although Justice Villa has received many bad people, it has never allowed them to drink a glass of water. "
Seeing that Jiang Yingying spoke seriously, Zhang Yaner believed Jiang Yulang and said, "Yingying, your father must be a real hero. Let's go tell Senior Li and the others about this."
Jiang Yingying was very happy and said quickly: "Let's go quickly." She strode towards the courtyard where Master Mingzhi, Xie Mubai and others lived.
The three of them ran through two or three long corridors, ran into the courtyard where Master Achieve lived, and broke into the living room.
When Master Mingzhi saw the three people in a panic, he criticized them: "Are children from rich families like you?"
Jiang Yingying gasped and said, "Grandpa Li, it's not good..."
Master Mingzhi said with an unhappy expression: "Your family has a big business, a big house, and good food and housing. What's wrong with that?"
Zhang Yan'er said: "Senior, it's not that this is bad...it's..."
Master Mingzhi became more and more unhappy as he listened, and said, "Which one is bad?"
Jiang Yingying regained her breath and said quickly, "My father left the village to meet someone."
Master Mingzhi said: "Just go out of the village to meet someone. What's the point? Who are you meeting?"
Jiang Yingying said: "I just didn't know who I was seeing, so I came to find you."
Xie Mubai said aside: "You always know where to meet, right?"
Hu Yanqing said: "The temple on the west side of the city."
Xie Mubai said: "The temple on the mountain west of the city has long been dilapidated, and there are lonely ghosts everywhere. What are you doing to meet there?"
Jiang Yingying said: "That's right! I advised dad not to go. Dad said that promoting the martial arts alliance was the most important thing, so he went without saying a word."
Bao Dalei stood up and asked, "How long has your father been gone?"
Jiang Yingying replied: "As soon as he leaves the village, we will come looking for you."
Bao Dalei looked at Master Mingzhi, Xie Mubai and Gu Huai and said, "Looking at it like this, it's really possible that it's Wu Zhiwei."
Jiang Yingying blurted out and asked: "Grandpa Bao, who is Wu Zhiwei?"
The four old men were very surprised and looked at each other. They couldn't believe that this child would say such a thing.
Xie Mubai said: "Wu Zhiwei is your father's master, don't you know?"
Jiang Yingying replied: "Didn't he pass away more than 20 years ago?"
Gu Huai said casually: "It's like borrowing a corpse to bring back the soul!"
Bao Dalei asked Jiang Yingying: "Son, do you have confidence in your father?"
Jiang Yingying was puzzled and asked: "Grandpa Bao, what kind of confidence do you have?"
Bao Dalei said: "Of course he is a really good person and a real gentleman."
Jiang Yingying said quickly: "Grandpa, my father must be a really good person and a real gentleman."
Bao Dalei turned to Master Mingzhi and said, "Old Li, let's face it, this kid Jiang Yulang is really in some danger."
Master Mingzhi said: "What danger can there be in a disciple going to see his master? It is unfounded to worry."
Xie Mubai said: "Old Li, you can't say that."
Master Mingzhi said: "How can you say otherwise!"
Xie Mubai smiled faintly: "Old Li, don't tell me. As the host of this martial arts conference, Zhengyi Villa, if Jiang Yulang cannot come forward to take charge of the overall situation, the martial arts conference may not be held. Looking at Wu Zhiwei, Zhao The two Mingxiu's style of dealing with things has always been unscrupulous. If Jiang Yulang doesn't want to listen to them, even if he doesn't kill Jiang Yulang, it's definitely possible to tie him up and prevent him from showing up."
Gu Huai stood up and said, "Then what are you waiting for? It's important to save people."
Master Mingzhi said: "What's the rush?"
Gu Huai said: "You are not in a hurry, I am."
Master Mingzhi said: "What are you in a hurry for? It's not that anything will happen to you."
Gu Huai said: "If something happens to Jiang Yulang under our noses, Jiang Qingcheng will make us miserable."
Master Mingzhi chuckled and said, "I'm not afraid of him."
Gu Huai said: "You are not afraid of him, but I am afraid of him!"
Master Mingzhi asked: "What are you afraid of him for?"
Gu Huai shook his head slightly and said: "This Central Plains can be considered my territory! If something happens on my territory, can I get away with it?"
Bao Dalei smiled and said: "Lao Gu, you are talking as if Lao Li is not from the Central Plains."
Gu Huai said: "He? In order to unify the three religions, the people of the Central Plains speak Jiangnan dialect and have become home all over the world."
Xie Mubai and Bao Dalei laughed.
Xie Mubai said: "Walking around the world is like being at home all over the world. What's there to say?"
Gu Huai said to Shi Xingyun who was reading a book at the side: "Boy, go get my sword."
"Yes, Master." Shi Xingyun put down his book, left his seat, and went out.
Master Mingzhi saw that Gu Huai was still impatient even though he was over seventy years old. He looked very displeased and said, "Gu Huai, care leads to chaos. Why can't you change this bad habit?"
Gu Huai said: "Li Yiru, don't even think about it. Wu Zhiwei has been dead for more than twenty years. The world has almost forgotten him, but he still wants to resurrect his body and make his presence felt in the world. This shows that What, it means that the reputation of the Feihe Sect is as low as dirt in Wu Zhiwei's heart. For a person who doesn't even want to be a disciple, you still expect him to accept a disobedient disciple, don't even think about it."
Bao Dalei said: "Old Li, what Lao Gu said makes sense."
Master Mingzhi said: "No matter how reasonable it is, just wait."
Gu Huai said: "Wait...wait...wait, you must have a reason to wait."
Master Mingzhi said: "Master and disciple have not seen each other for decades, so they must have endless whispers. Do you feel embarrassed that you rushed there in a hurry and disturbed others' chat? Besides, twenty years ago, Jiang Yulang He failed to stick to his principles and forced his sworn brother to jump off a cliff and commit suicide, which almost made Old Jiang angry to death. If he doesn't stick to his principles this time and betrays heroes from all walks of life, do you think Old Jiang will still be alive? As time goes by, people's hearts will change. , good and bad will come out in a while, just wait."
Jiang Yingying was surprised. What did Jiang clarify about her father's safety? Asked: "Grandpa Li, my father is really a good person, you really don't have to doubt it. Even if he is not a good person, it doesn't have anything to do with Brother Tian and Master?"
Master Mingzhi said: "Old Gu, we are all old and we can't live for many more years. Let the children know what Jiang clarified should be known, so as not to leave any regrets in the future."
Gu Huai said: "Why is it me again?"
Bao Dalei said: "You are the youngest, it doesn't matter who you are."
Gu Huai had nothing to say and said to Jiang Yingying: "Son, old man Jiang Chengcheng from Chunyang Gate is your grandfather. You also have an aunt named Jiang Yuying. With these words, if old man Jiang is sitting here, we really don't know what to do. I shouldn’t say it. But fortunately, Old Man Jiang is not here, so it’s better to say it than not to say it at all.”
Jiang Yingying said: "Grandpa Gu, are you telling the truth?"
Xie Mubai said: "You kid, how old are the four of us old men? Together we are almost three hundred years old. We are buried up to our necks in soil. We can no longer tell lies. Of course they are true."
Jiang Yingying said: "Then why didn't you tell my father earlier?"
Xie Mubai said: "I never thought about telling him, I just thought about telling you."
Jiang Yuying asked: "Why?"
Xie Mubai said: "Based on the fact that your father framed your sworn brother Bai Tianyu twenty years ago, if your grandfather hadn't felt that he owed your father something, he would have killed him with a slap. How could your father still be alive today? Since I don’t want to tell him this.”
Shi Xingyun walked in holding the sword and said: "Master, sword." Holding the sword in both hands.
Gu Huai took the sword and was very unhappy and said: "Xingyun, the yard is so big, why did it take you so long to hold the sword?"
Shi Xingyun smiled and replied: "I was afraid that Master would be anxious, so I specially wiped the sword before coming over."
When Gu Huai met such a disciple, he really lost his temper and said nicely: "Go and read a book."
Shi Xingyun said politely, "Yes, Master." He walked towards the book.
Xie Mubai smiled and said: "Old Gu, you did not accept this disciple in vain, I will definitely carry forward your Yellow River Sword Sect."
