Starting boy Ma Kongqun

Chapter 164 Eagle?

When she heard that Chu Liuxiang and Ma Kongqun had arrived together, Hua Ruling couldn't help but be overjoyed, and she and her wife immediately went out to greet them.

Lu Xiaofeng, Fu Hongxue, Lao Shishang, Gongsun Lan and Ma Qingfeng, who were helping to entertain the guests in the hall, heard that their master had arrived and also came out to welcome them.

Ye Kai hesitated for a moment and followed behind everyone.

As soon as he walked out of the hall, he saw the eldest son Hua Manlin and the youngest son Hua Manlou walking towards each other.

Although one person has inevitably shown some signs of aging, his brows are still full of youthful vigor.

Although he still has the appearance of a young man, he is as deep and deep as when he was really young.

It was Chu Liuxiang and Ma Kongqun.

Behind the two people, there was an old man wearing the clothes of a foreign tribe from the Western Regions, but his appearance was the same as that of a Central Plains person.

Hua Ruling said with a smile: "You two are in the east and the west, so far apart, how could you come together?"

Chu Liuxiang touched her nose and said, "Maybe Xiaoma and I have a connection, so we happened to bump into each other outside the city."

Ma Kongqun laughed and scolded: "Who has the same mind and heart as you, an old bug?"

In the past few years, Chu Liuxiang stayed here to train Lu Xiaofeng, and Ma Kongqun would also take time to come over and teach Huamanlou. The two of them had met more often, and they got along well with each other, and they were already talking and laughing freely.

A group of young people from behind came forward and saluted the two of them respectively.

When it was Ma Qingfeng's turn, he first followed Fu Hongxue and others to meet Chu Liuxiang as a junior, then walked up to Ma Kongqun and said with a reserved attitude that was neither humble nor overbearing: "Juniors have met Hall Master Ma!"

Seeing the brat pretending, Ma Kongqun reached out and grabbed him and said with a smile: "When I came here, Marquis Weiyuan told me to keep an eye on you, brat, and said that if you dare to mess around, I will give you a good beating when I get back." butt!"

Ma Qingfeng shrank his neck and hurriedly changed into a fawning demeanor: "Uncle Ma clearly knows how honest my nephew is outside - all my brothers and sisters can testify for me."

After intimidating his brat and telling him not to get carried away, he looked at Ye Kai, who was lagging far behind and farthest away from him, and said with a smile: "Xiaoye, we haven't seen each other for just a few years, are you so alienated from me?"

Ye Kai smiled reluctantly, stepped forward to salute Ma Kongqun, and called out: "Uncle Ma!"

Ma Kongqun raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with some emotion: "You were a little older when you practiced with Hongxue. Now you have grown to be as tall as me, but I have to accept your age."

Although he was full of worries, Ye Kai couldn't help but roll his eyes and secretly thought that with your dignity as an old man, you are not worthy of the word "old".

After everyone chatted and laughed for a while, the old man who was following Chu Liuxiang and Ma Kongqun came forward, bowed to Hua Ruling and saluted, and spoke in fluent Central Plains Chinese: "I am Song Zhongqiu, the imperial physician of the Hanhai Kingdom. By order of the king, I came here to congratulate the head of the Hua family on his birthday!"

Hua Ruling was startled: "Did Arslan send you here?"

Song Zhongqiu said: "The king has always remembered Hua Family Master's birthday, but it is a pity that it is inconvenient to come in person. I happened to go back to my hometown in the Central Plains for something, so the king carefully selected a gift and strictly ordered me to deliver it to Hua Family Master's house first. You can’t go back to your hometown until the birthday party is over.”

Hua Ruling looked at Chu Liuxiang who was standing aside, and quietly gave him a questioning look.

Chu Liuxiang nodded slightly and said, "Both Imperial Physician Song and I came from the Western Regions. We happened to meet each other on the road and learned that each other had the same purpose, so we came together."

"I see, Arslan has the heart and thanks to Dr. Song for his hard work."

Hua Ruling also nodded and hurriedly invited everyone to the hall.

Chu Liuxiang, Ma Kongqun, and Song Zhongqiu all sent Hua Ruling gifts in person.

Chu Liuxiang and Ma Kongqun were both from wealthy families, so the gifts they sent were naturally extraordinary.

What's more, given their identities, they came all the way to congratulate Hua Ruling on her birthday. Even if they took out a feather, Hua Ruling would feel that this affection was as heavy as Mount Tai. Song Zhongqiu used the name of the leader of the Hanhai Kingdom, and the birthday gifts were more valuable than the birthday gifts of the two of them.

At this moment, all the guests who came to celebrate the birthday had heard that "The Bandit Commander" Chu Liuxiang and "The Heavenly Sword" Ma Kongqun had arrived. On the one hand, they felt that Hua Ruling's face was really big enough. On the other hand, they all found excuses to show up in front of the two and say hello. .

When Chu Liuxiang was young, she was impatient with the sophistication of people in these scenes. Now that she has aged a few years, her temper has become more open-minded and casual. Not long after, she said hello to Hua Ruling, went to hide and drink, and refused to see anyone.

Ma Kongqun, however, greeted everyone with a gentle demeanor.

He could accurately name people he had met before.

Even if he has never met each other, he can tell one or two of the most proud things in their lives when he hears the other person's name.

Although each person only said a few words, they all gave people a feeling of spring breeze.

Several disciples on the side, including Ma Qingfeng, were greatly impressed when they saw it. At the same time, they deeply understood what Ma Kongqun had emphasized to them many times - the world is not about fighting and killing, but about the world.

Hua Ruling's birthday banquet lasted for a whole day, and it was not until dusk that the guests who came to celebrate her birthday began to leave one after another after they had had enough wine and food.

When the lanterns came on and the guests had dispersed, Gong Ziyu and Lu Xiaojia came together and talked about interrogating the iron-shoe thief and tracking down the lost items.

Hua Manlou said with some embarrassment: "Although I asked a doctor to treat his injuries, the effect was not very good. He is dizzy and awake now, so I'm afraid it's not convenient to interrogate him."

Song Zhongqiu, who had not yet said goodbye, already understood the reason, so he stood up and said with a smile: "I am not talented, but I am still somewhat confident in my medical skills. If everyone can trust me, then bring that person here. I have my own means. It can keep him awake to accept your interrogation."

Hua Ruling seemed to be very happy, and then said: "As a doctor for a country, there is no doubt about the high level of medical skills. Xiaoqi, go quickly and fetch the iron-shoe thief."

Hua Manlou agreed to go out, and soon he led someone to put the unconscious thief on a door panel and carry him out.

At this time, the mask of the Iron Shoe Thief had already been taken off, revealing a featureless face that would be forgotten in the blink of an eye.

Song Zhongqiu stepped forward, first leaned over to inspect the opponent's injuries, and then took out a cloth roll from his arms. After unfolding it, a row of silver needles of different lengths and shapes were inserted on it.

Ma Kongqun seemed to be interested in this iron-shoe thief, so he took a few steps forward and stood behind Song Zhongqiu.

Gong Ziyu and Lu Xiaojia were on the left and right of the Iron Shoe Thief, and they took the attitude of starting interrogation as soon as the other party woke up.

Ye Kaize stood aside with Fu Hongxue and Lao Shi Monk, but stood behind them and behind everyone.

Song Zhongqiu pulled out several silver needles and pierced several acupuncture points on the chest and abdomen of the iron shoe thief.

The silver needle penetrated the body, and the iron-shoe thief's body was shaken, and he suddenly woke up immediately.

But the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to use up his last bit of strength to raise his upper body and hit Song Zhongqiu on the head with a fierce headbutt.

Song Zhongqiu was caught off guard and was hit so hard that he stumbled back and hit Ma Kongqun behind him.

Ma Kongqun subconsciously raised his hand to help.

Song Zhongqiu's eyes finally showed undisguised ferocious murderous intent. He was still facing forward, and the right hand hidden in his sleeve had already grasped an extremely sharp poison-tempered dagger and stabbed Ma Kongqun back without any trace. lower abdomen.

This falcon, which had been lurking for a long time, finally showed its claws at the moment when the fox he was staring at was least prepared!
