Chapter 109

"It's a pity that I only have two swords here, and I have no more gifts to give." Ye Ziqiong said loudly on purpose.

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Qiao interjected: "Master, you don't have it there, but I have it here. Boy Xue, you learned my Ye Luoying Fei and practiced it very well. I might as well use my housekeeping skills—— — Chasing the wind and chasing the moon also taught you how to do it, just treat it as the money for this banquet."

When Xue Chang heard this, only a fool would refuse, and hurried forward to thank him.

"They haven't learned my lightness skill well, maybe you will have to pass it on in the future." Zhou Qiao glanced at Shangguan Yi and Ye Ziqiong, and then said: "However, let me say yes first, you After practicing these two lightness skills, you must pass them on to your beggar apprentices in the future."

"Senior, don't worry." After Xue Chang finished speaking, Xu Xi solemnly bowed to Zhou Qiao.

"Little guy, learn from your master well. In the future, you will definitely be better than me." When Zhou Qiao spoke to Xu Xi, her voice became soft, and when she turned to Xue Chang, her voice returned to normal: "Xue boy, You drank too much today, you are not suitable for learning martial arts, I will teach you tomorrow afternoon."

"Okay." Xue Chang responded.

Zhou Qiao looked at Luo Dahammer next to him, and asked, "Boss Luo, if you take a few jars of wine away after eating, I'm afraid you should leave something for the wine."

"Okay!" Luo Dachui said very simply: "Boy Xue, I see that your Shaolin Kung Fu practice is very good. I created my own set of drunken boxing, which was born out of Shaolin boxing. It is suitable for you to practice. I will follow the old beggar tomorrow afternoon. Let's teach you together."

"Thank you, Senior Luo!" Xue Chang hurriedly thanked him.

"Guangfeng Kuai Dao, I won't teach you. After all, this is the unique skill of Kuai Dao Sect. I can't teach it without authorization." Geng Po continued: "I see that you have mastered a lot of my heavy sword and eight skills. Later, I will pass on its full set of moves and secrets to you. But you have to learn Chasing the Wind and Chasing the Moon, Drunken Fist, and my Eight Skills of Heavy Swords. Can you learn it in just a day or two? "

"Cook, don't worry about it." Zhou Qiao said: "He can learn my Ye Luoying Fei in one night. His comprehension is so good, there should be no problem. We can just see it tomorrow."

After hearing this, Geng Po said to Xue Chang seriously: "I will leave this girl Qiudi to you, and you have to take good care of her for me!"

"Uncle Geng, don't worry!" Xue Chang immediately promised.

"Look, if you don't think about it, you just open your mouth." Geng Po said dissatisfiedly: "After a while, don't you want to go south to join the war? Once you leave, there will be only a few people in your house who have just learned a little martial arts." Children, who else can be the leader! Now that the world is getting a little chaotic, if your enemies or thieves who covet these two swords come to your door, how can you guarantee safety?!"

What Geng Po said made Xue Chang speechless.

Immediately afterwards, Gengpo sighed: "Well, I have two suitable candidates here. They are the children of my dead subordinates, and they can be regarded as my apprentices. They live in the village near Longmen Town. One fishes for a living, the other is good at gathering herbs, and she is very familiar with this girl, although she may not be able to beat you now, but her martial arts are not bad, and I can help you look around, what do you think?"

Xue Chang was overjoyed, and immediately saluted and said, "Thank you, Uncle Geng, for your fulfillment, this junior can't wait for it!"

"Let's talk about it first, they are only helping temporarily. These two are very family-loving people and don't want to be far away from home, so I didn't let them go to Jinghu with me." Geng Po said this to the other people present. The iron-blooded Changhemen listened: "If you want to keep them with you for a long time, you have to figure out a way for yourself."

Xue Chang nodded knowingly.

"Great! I can see Uncle Yu and Mu again!" Hu Qiudi exclaimed excitedly.

Shangguan Yi didn't wait for everyone's eyes to focus on him, and said first: "Brother Xue, I don't dare to teach martial arts without the master's permission, but I will give you another piece of top-quality jade some other day, and you can let the master carve it." Well, give it to someone you like."

What Shangguan Yi said was a pun, and Xue Chang subconsciously looked at Ye Ziqiong.

Ye Ziqiong was talking to Liu Yining, she didn't seem to pay attention to this at all.

"Thank you, Brother Shangguan, for the gift!" Xue Chang was not at all polite to such a rare item.

Shangguan Yi winked at him, and said in a low voice, "This is also thanks for your help just now, otherwise I don't know when I will be able to send that piece of jade."

Xue Chang nodded in understanding.

"It's getting late, we should go too." Ye Ziqiong urged, and walked out the door first.

The servants of the Xue residence had already led the horses and were waiting outside.

Everyone got on their horses one after another.

Xue Chang bowed solemnly to everyone, and said sonorously: "The purpose of inviting Yemen Master and seniors to come today is to thank you for your help to Xue, but I didn't expect to get more help from you. I swear here that if the iron-blooded rivers need my help, Xue, in the future, I will definitely go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

"Serious words, serious words." Zhou Qiao said hastily: "This is the first time in my life that I have had such a good banquet. The wine is good and the food is better. It is completely worth the reward we paid! Oh, I just don't know what It’s time to eat again.”

"Yes! Yes!" Luo Dachui had a sympathetic expression.

Xue Chang said with a smile: "If the seniors want to come and eat, the juniors can prepare it at any time!"

"I will remember this!" Zhou Qiao and Luo Dahammer said in unison.

"I have also written down Xue Shaoxia's oath!" Ye Ziqiong looked at Xue Chang seriously, and said, "I still have a small request. Xue Shaoxia sent a poem to my senior sister just now, can you also send a poem?" Give me?"

"I know what I want, but I dare not ask you." Xue Chang looked up at Ye Ziqiong riding a horse in a heroic manner, with an unstoppable heroic spirit on her bright and beautiful face, and subconsciously said "Golden wind and jade dew, once we meet, we will be together." Victory but countless in the world" swallowed back the verse again, and then recited aloud:
"Golden bottles of sake are worth ten thousand, jade plates are worth tens of thousands of dollars, I can't eat after stopping the cup and throwing chopsticks, I draw my sword and look around at a loss. Going back to the boat and dreaming of the sun. The road is difficult, the road is difficult, and there are many divergent roads. Now I am safe. Hanging the clouds and sailing to help the sea, there will be times when the wind and the waves break! I wish the master of the Yemen to lead the iron-blooded Changhe Gate to overcome all difficulties and achieve a great cause!"

"Good poem!" Ye Ziqiong's clear eyes suddenly burst into thousands of expressions, and she smiled generously: "At first, I thought I didn't owe Xue Shaoxia anything, but this poem made me feel that I owed more. May it be your Share with me! The sky is high and the water is long, let's meet again by fate!" As soon as the words fell, Ye Ziqiong spurred the horse and galloped away without looking back.

The rest of the people followed closely and soon disappeared into the distance of the street.

However, there is a line of "difficult to travel, difficult to travel, many divergent roads, here we are now, hang the clouds and sails straight to help the sea, there will be times when the wind blows and the waves break." Ye Ziqiong's unique voice recited the poem clearly into Xue Chang's ears.

Xue Chang stood there for a long time, then walked back to the courtyard feeling lost.

"That Sister Ye is very nice, Master, why don't you just marry her and be our teacher's wife." Hu Qiudi saw something and suggested in a low voice.

"Yes, brother, I think you are a good match for her." Xue Yuting also expressed her support.

Being interrupted by these two female apprentices, Xue Chang not only didn't feel embarrassed about being seen through, but he felt better, and said to them with a smile: "Very good suggestion, and good vision. But, the name Sister Ye Don't call it anymore, so as not to mess up your seniority."

"That can't be done, the horoscope has not been written yet." Xue Yuting rolled her eyes, although she was still a little shy and introverted in front of outsiders, but her relationship with Xue Chang's brother and sister was getting deeper and deeper, and she could already act like a baby in front of him.

"That's right, I think Sister Ye is not a few years older than me. Master, if you want us to change our name, you have to work harder!" Hu Qiudi joked.

Usually Xue Chang gets along with his apprentices like friends, and sometimes they joke with each other. At this time, he regrets a little: Did he not treat them too harshly in the past!
"Senior sister, let's go practice swordplay." Xue Yuting just got a new sword, and couldn't wait to pull Hu Qiudi to practice swordsmanship in the martial arts field.

Yes, you have to work harder! ...Xue Chang was watching the practice of the apprentices from the sidelines, thinking about how to apply to the Martial Arts Patrol Division and participate in the upcoming southward pacification, and a fighting spirit was ignited in his heart.

..............................................................................

In the early morning of the next day, a strange thing happened in Shu Palace.

After the king of Shu got up, he found that the robe he took off before going to bed had actually run into the lotus pond in the outer courtyard, and there was a note in the place where the robe was originally placed, which read: You made me unable to eat Malatang, I Make you unable to wear clothes.

The king of Shu was terrified. He not only searched the whole mansion for suspicious people, but also sent more guards in the mansion to strengthen the defense.

But in the early hours of the third day, something like this happened again.

The King of Shu was even more panicked. He originally wanted to ask the Xunwusi for help, but then he thought: In this way, wouldn't it be clear that the evidence that he had contacts with Bashu officials and businessmen and jointly oppressed the Xue family was sent to the Xunwusi? In front of the military officials.

After pondering over and over again, he had no choice but to temporarily cancel the suppression of Xue's Mala Tang food stall.

And on the second day after Ye Ziqiong led the iron-blooded Changhemen to the banquet, the Chengdu Martial Arts Officer sent an order for military mobilization to the Bashu Martial Arts. Naturally, Jinbei Street also welcomed the envoys of the Martial Arts Corps. They visited every bodyguard bureau one by one. However, Xue Chang, who was reminded by Ye Ziqiong, went directly to the Xunwusi yamen.

The last time it was very easy for Xue Chang to enter the Yamen of the Military Patrol Division, but this time he had to go through strict interrogation just to enter the inner city. patrol.

Xue Chang explained the purpose of coming to the captain of the escort team. After carefully checking his identity seal, the captain of the guard team sized him up and said, "Come with me."

Walking into the Xunwusi's yamen during the day, the mansion was actually empty, with no moving figures in sight, and the Xunwusi, which already occupies a large area, seemed even more empty.

The captain of the guard saw Xue Chang's doubts, and explained: "All the personnel in the mansion have been sent out, and the sects have been notified."

Xue Chang asked curiously: "Excuse me for my blindness, but which sect does this elder brother come from?"

The captain of the guard held his head high, and said loudly: "We are different from the inspectors from various sects. We are the real subordinates of the Martial Soldiers and serve the imperial court!"

"Disrespect, disrespect." Xue Chang clasped his fists in salute.

"It's already here." The captain of the guard led Xue Chang into a room next to the gate, stood at the door, bowed and saluted, and said loudly, "Master Zhou, someone has come to sign up for the war!"

After a while, a voice came from the back room: "The messenger was sent out not long ago, why did someone come so soon?"

"Go in." The guard captain pointed to the back room.

"Thank you!" How could Xue Chang not understand at this moment, this room is only a few steps away from the gate, so there is no need for a captain of the guard to lead the way, this person seems to be expressing goodwill to him.

"You're welcome." The captain of the guard laughed, "I just want to see how the young head of the Jincheng Bodyguard Bureau can befriend the world-renowned Jagged Changhemen."

Xue Chang really wanted to ask: So what do you think now?
It's a pity that the other party has waved away.

Xue Chang walked into the back room.

A large square table was facing the door, and there was a mountain of papers piled on the table. There was only a gap in the middle, revealing a young face. He stared at Xue Chang who came in with misty eyes, and asked, "Did you receive me?" The military mobilization order issued by the company, came to sign up?"

"Probably." Xue Chang replied vaguely.

"You are the only one! Could it be that you are a wanderer with no family or sect?" The young official asked suspiciously.

"I am Xue Chang, the head of the former Jincheng Escort Bureau." Xue Chang introduced himself.

"Ah, you are that Xue Chang!" The young official stood up suddenly, leaned forward, and moved his whole face towards him.

Xue Chang subconsciously took a step back.

"I heard that you have a good relationship with Jagged Changhe Gate?" the young official asked excitedly.

"There is a little relationship."

"I heard that the new head of the Jagged Changhe Gate is a young girl, is it true?"

Xue Chang thought to himself that since the Jagged Changhe Gate had joined the Great Zhou, the Martial Patrol Division would soon have information about them, so he didn't intend to hide it: "Yes."

"I heard that she is a descendant of General Ye, right?"

"Correct."

"It's an exciting event that the Jagged Changhe Gate can be rebuilt in our Zhou Dynasty! It's a pity that they actually set up the sect's residence in Jinghu, and Bashu should be the foundation of the Jagged Changhe Gate! Why don't you Persuade them?" The young official said excitedly.

Met a fan of Jagged Changhe Gate? ... Xue Chang could only remain silent.

Fortunately, the young official only complained a few words, then turned around and quickly took out a volume of documents from the bookcase behind him, put them on the table, and sat down to read them.
