Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing sent Lan Xiang to her uncle's house safely. After the three of them arrived, more than a hundred strong men wearing black windbreakers lined up neatly in two lines.
These people hold command flags in their hands, wear swords on their waists, their feet are as steady as a rock, and their eyes are looking forward, making them look very majestic.
Looking at the courtyard, it is square, spacious and bright. In the middle of the door hangs the four characters "Golden Sword Family".
A man who looked like a housekeeper, after seeing Lan Xiang, smiled and said to her: "Miss Lan Xiang, the master asked me to take you and your friends into the house. He will be back later."
Afterwards, the housekeeper took the three people into the house.
After the housekeeper ordered someone to serve tea, he asked the three of them with concern what happened along the way. After a few simple chats, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the door.
Then a deep voice came from outside, "Hahaha, has my niece Lanxiang arrived?"
When the person arrived, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing followed the sound and saw an old man in white running into the living room with vigorous steps.
He is eight feet tall, has a clear face, two eyebrows drawn in all directions, a pair of starry eyes looking deep into the universe, a straight nose, a broad mouth, and an elegant expression.
The old man walked directly in front of Lan Xiang. Lan Xiang stood up and saluted. The old man supported her and kept laughing.
Lanxiang also laughed non-stop when she saw the old man.
However, when she recalled the changes in her family, two lines of tears could not stop falling.
The old man patted Lan Xiang on the shoulder and said to her: "Niece, you can live here comfortably. My uncle will definitely help you avenge your great revenge."
Lan Xiang nodded, took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her tears.
At this time, the old man saw Fu Tianpeng. After looking him up and down, he was amazed by his outstanding appearance and chic behavior.
Looking at Zhao Xueqing next to him, she is as beautiful as a spring flower, better than the autumn moon. Wearing a snow gauze silk shirt adds a bit of charm.
The old man asked Lan Xiang, who are the two friends beside him?
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing stepped forward to salute and reported to the family truthfully.
After the old man saw that Fu Tianpeng was a loyal and good man, and that Zhao Xueqing also came from a well-known and decent family, the joy in his heart greatly increased.
In order to express his feelings for Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing for escorting them thousands of miles away, the old man immediately held a banquet with wine and entertained them warmly.
During the banquet, everyone drank and chatted with each other, and the conversation was very enjoyable. Just as the wine was winding down, the housekeeper walked in and said, "Sir, Ma Tianxiong has entered the house carrying several boxes."
After hearing this, the old man's eyebrows were furrowed, and anger showed on his vigorous face.
He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said coldly to the butler: "Tell him to get out of here right away. He is not welcome in the Golden Sword Family."
The housekeeper agreed repeatedly and was about to turn around and leave.
I heard a loud noise outside, and then someone laughed and said: "The deputy master of Huangsha Castle, Ma Tianxiong, pays homage to Senior Bai Shengjie, who has traveled thousands of miles in the desert. The golden sword is invincible."
Bai Shengjie snorted coldly and said to Lan Xiang and the others: "It was a lovely family dinner, but it was disturbed by a little girl. Let me have a good drink after I drive them away."
After Bai Shengjie finished speaking, he stroked his silver beard and strode towards the main hall.
After arriving at the main hall, Bai Shengjie clasped his hands behind his back and glanced sideways at the five people standing under the hall. The leader was a short and fat man. He was wearing a green cloth coat, dragon and tiger boots, and his round belly was shiny.
After seeing Bai Shengjie, Ma Tianxiong saluted him with clasped fists, and then said to Bai Shengjie with a smile on his face: "Senior Bai, the Lord of the Castle has admired you for a long time and has been in love with you. Today he sent me to pay a visit to the house with gold antiques. I hope Senior Bai can accept it."
Bai Shengjie waved his hand and said to Ma Tianxiong: "Take your things and get out of here."
When Ma Tianxiong saw that Bai Shengjie was not giving him face, his face showed displeasure.
Ma Tianxiong then said: "Senior Bai, the right way is not to slap the smiley face of the gift giver. What you are doing seems unreasonable."
Bai Shengjie said with an indifferent expression: "You have ulterior motives in giving gifts. Guan Saiyan has done so many shameful things over the years. Do you think I am blind and deaf? By giving gifts, you want me to get into trouble and join you in the same deeds? Stop dreaming. I tell you, stop as soon as possible. Return those ill-gotten gains as soon as possible, otherwise, I will definitely settle the score with you."
After Bai Shengjie's words came to light, Ma Tianxiong's face trembled like a spasm.
He squeezed out some saliva from between his teeth, shrugged and said to Bai Shengjie, "So, Senior Bai is determined to go against the owner of the castle?"
Bai Shengjie slapped the table and angrily yelled at Ma Tianxiong, "Why, what I just said wasn't clear enough?"
Speaking of this, Ma Tianxiong curled his lips and led everyone away from here.
After returning to the castle, Ma Tianxiong told Guan Saiyan all about the cold reception he received in Baifu.
Guan Saiyan's eyes were wandering around, he smashed the cup and bowl in his hand, and cursed: "Bai Shengjie, this old man, really doesn't give me face. In this case, don't blame me for being cruel. .”
While the two were discussing, they heard a sneer outside the door, and one person said: "Who dares to offend the Lord of the castle? I think he is impatient with life."
As soon as he finished speaking, three people walked in.
After Guan Saiyan saw the three people, the anger on his face immediately disappeared.
It turned out that the visitors were none other than Xiao Jianqiu, Village Master Xiong and Tong Dahai.
Guansaiyan cooks sheep and slaughters cattle, and entertains Xiao Jianqiu and others with good wine and vegetables.
When the wine was finished, Guan Saiyan wiped his chin, put down the wine bowl and said to Xiao Jianqiu: "Brother Xiao is so tired from the journey, he came to the border all the way, not to enjoy the scenery of the desert."
Xiao Jianqiu smiled and replied: "The castle master is quick to speak. I have two things to do here. One is for Fu Tianpeng, and the other is to buy horses."
Guan Saiyan touched his chin with his hand, lowered his head and meditated. He asked casually: "Fu Tianpeng? Why does it sound so familiar to me?"
Xiao Jianqiu told Guan Saiyan that Fu Tianpeng was the one who killed the black and white evil spirits, made a big fuss in the Sword Making Valley, and killed the three eagles in Xueling.
After hearing what Xiao Jianqiu said, Guan Saiyan cursed Fu Tianpeng.
At this time, Ma Tianxiong took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire. He told Guan Saiyan that it was this boy who injured the "monkey" in Chunfengyi.
Guan Saiyan turned around and said to Ma Tianxiong: "Tianxiong, where is this kid now? I have to strangle him to death."
Ma Tianxiong held the wine bowl in his hand and looked at Xiao Jianqiu with rat eyes, and then looked at Guan Saiyan.
Guan Saiyan gritted his teeth and cursed at Ma Tianxiong: "Tianxiong, why are you hiding like a turtle? This is in the castle. Are you scared to death by that man named Fu?"
Ma Tianxiong wrinkled his eyebrows and replied with a smile on his face: "Brother, it's not that I'm being naughty, but it's very difficult to deal with Fu Tianpeng."
Guan Saiyan snorted coldly and said: "I have been in the desert for more than forty years. In my own one-third of an acre of land, am I still afraid of a young boy? Please tell me clearly."
Ma Tianxiong told Guan Saiyan that Fu Tianpeng was being protected by the Golden Sword Family, and dealing with him would be equivalent to declaring war on Bai Shengjie.
Guan Saiyan said contemptuously: "No wonder this kid dares to hurt people on my territory. It turns out that Bai Shengjie, the old immortal, is behind him. But it doesn't matter, I will definitely deal with him personally."
Xiao Jianqiu smiled and said: "Fortmaster, why don't you kill a chicken with an ox-knife? I'll let you Bai Shengjie solve it for you."
After Guan Saiyan heard this, his big toad eyes bulged out. He sat in his seat blankly for a long time, his expression full of astonishment.
Seeing his expression, Xiao Jianqiu knew that Guan Saiyan was looking down on him. He smiled slightly and still picked up the wine bowl and tasted the "Linglong drunk".
Desert wine is sweeter than wine from the Central Plains, which also demonstrates the magnanimity of Guansai.
After Guan Saiyan came to his senses, he asked Xiao Jianqiu what method he would use to deal with Bai Shengjie?
Xiao Jianqiu asked Guan Saiyan to take out pen and paper, and he wanted to issue a letter of challenge to Bai Shengjie.
After hearing this, Guan Saiyan was even more stunned.
However, compared to being surprised, Guan Saiyan was more interested in Xiao Jianqiu's boldness. He wanted to see what kind of medicine Xiao Jianqiu was selling in this gourd?
After getting the paper and pen, Xiao Jianqiu quickly wrote the battle.
Then, he said to Master Xiong and Tong Dahai: "Send this letter of challenge to the Golden Sword Family."
Boss Xiong and Tong Dahai nodded, put away the letter, and went straight to the Golden Sword Family.
After arriving at the Golden Sword Family, Master Xiong and Tong Dahai stood on tiptoes, pinched their waists, and said to the housekeeper arrogantly: "Bring your master out, we will talk to him if we have anything to do."
The housekeeper glanced sideways at the two of them and said to them coldly: "Who are you two? If you dare to yell in the Golden Sword Family, get out of here."
Master Xiong sneered: "The Golden Sword Family is just trying to gain fame. When Bai Shengjie saw someone issuing a challenge to him, he hid like a tortoise."
Tong Dahai nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and said with a big smile: "That's right."
When the housekeeper saw that Master Xiong and Tong Dahai were rude, he immediately started to teach these two madmen a lesson.
At this moment, a cold voice came from inside the main hall: "Stop."
Everyone followed the sound and Bai Shengjie led Lan Xiang, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing to the main hall slowly.
Bai Shengjie was sitting on the tiger leather chair, with a resolute expression and a pair of clear eyes, deep and distant. He is like a strong pine in the mountains, fearless in wind and rain, making people look at him without anger and self-esteem.
After Mr. Xiong saw Bai Shengjie, he still behaved arrogantly. He flicked the letter towards the butler.
After the housekeeper took the letter, he handed it to Bai Shengjie.
After Bai Shengjie received the letter, he stroked his silver whiskers and read: "Three days later at dusk, there will be a competition at Yumen Pass. Whoever doesn't go will be the turtle. Xiao Jianqiu."
After Bai Shengjie finished reading the letter, mist filled his hand and the letter immediately disappeared into smoke.
He laughed loudly and said: "Okay, okay, Xiao Jianqiu dares to challenge me. He is really not afraid of tigers. Since he dares to issue a challenge, I will gladly accept the challenge."
When Boss Xiong and Tong Dahai saw Bai Shengjie accepting the challenge, they turned around and left.
Bai Shengjie shouted: "Wait a minute."
Boss Xiong and Tong Dahai turned around and asked in doubtful tones: "Why, Senior Bai wants to force us to stay?"
Bai Shengjie replied in a cold tone: "If I keep you dirty people here, wouldn't it be a disgrace to my Golden Sword Family?"
Owner Xiong and Tong Dahai then asked: "Then what do you want to do?"
With a flick of Bai Shengjie's fingers, the paper ash condensed into a ball and hit the legs of Village Master Xiong and Tong Dahai with great force. "
The two of them knelt down involuntarily.
Bai Shengjie's eyes were full of anger, and he said to the two of them: "You two evil thieves, crawl out of the Golden Sword Family like turtles. If you don't obey, I will take your heads."
In order to save their lives, Boss Xiong and Tong Dahai had no choice but to crawl out of the Golden Sword Family.
