Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 366 Apprentices (continued)
Everyone said words of encouragement, and Han Ying could only bow her head and say softly, "Understood, Master, I'll go."

"By the way, Master, I was interrupted by my younger brother before I finished speaking just now." Fan Mastiff said loudly: "Although I defeated those two people from Jinghu Wulin, their martial arts are a bit strange. I can't point out any deficiencies in their martial arts, but you went out again today, so I will let them come back tomorrow."

"What's so weird about those two people's martial arts?" Xue Chang asked with interest.

"The man used a mace-like weapon. He said it was called a one-horned bronze man. It was very heavy. It stands to reason that the person who uses this heavy weapon should have a strong body, outstanding arm strength, and hard work. Yes, but often the moves are not dexterous enough, the movements will be clumsy, and on the contrary, they are the easiest to defeat. I have encountered some similar martial arts people before. But this person can sway the one-horned bronze figure freely, and his moves are very strange. It forced me to use all the subtleties of the Hu family's saber technique, and only then did I defeat him with a few moves.

And that woman made a pair of copper rings, which can be used for smashing, can also be used to lock the opponent's weapon, and can also be thrown from the hand, and then recalled. In short, it is a bit strange. I almost got caught at the beginning. Fortunately, she The inner strength is not too deep..."

"Tomorrow I will go to the arena to have a look." Xue Chang nodded with interest, and then said in a deep voice: "Yes, I will be apprenticed the day after tomorrow, so you don't have to go to the arena tomorrow, and prepare carefully at home. Practice that ceremony well, there will be a lot of distinguished guests at that time, so don't make a joke."

"Understood, Master." Fan Mastiff rolled his eyes and asked, "Master, did the Emei Sect send someone here?"

Xue Chang glanced at him, pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Why are you specifically asking about the Emei sect?"

Fan Mastiff scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

Luo Lanmeng gave her husband a blank look: "Husband, you are asking too much, of course Xiao Ao wants to know if Miss Yue Qingdai is coming?"

In last year's martial arts contest, Yue Qingdai was defeated by Xue Yuting in the round of the Xiaoyao Party's Emei School. Not only did Fan Mastiff not cheer for her junior sister's victory, but ran over to comfort her opponent, and from then on, she challenged Yue Qingdai, a rookie of the Emei School. Qing Dai's thoughts are fully revealed.

Hu Qiudi and Xue Yuting were not there, Xu Xi, Xue Wu, and Han Xue were all more serious and had no habit of joking, Han Ying was too young, Yu Zhixian was immature, and Kapok only focused on medical skills, so no one took the opportunity to make fun of them.

Xue Chang joked, "The letter from the Emei Sect said that Mrs. Jingyu will come to watch the ceremony. As for who she will bring, I don't know. You will be responsible for receiving the Emei Sect at that time, okay?" ?”

"Okay, no problem." Fan Mastiff responded immediately without feeling embarrassed at all.

Luo Lanmeng chuckled lightly.

Xue Chang also smiled, and asked again: "How is Yue Chong's child?"

"He's pretty good. I'm excited these days, so I'm looking forward to apprenticeship!" Fan Mastiff replied.

Xue Chang stared at Fan Mastiff, and said with a solemn expression: "Although we have now formulated new rules, if you want to become an inner disciple, you must pass through multiple assessments, and only those who perform outstandingly can be selected. But Yue Chong came from Luoyang. After you came back, you made a promise to take it. Now he will soon become the first third-generation disciple of our Xiaoyao Sect. As the senior brother of the third-generation disciples, I hope he can not only practice martial arts well, but also be able to understand books, reason, distinguish right from wrong, Work hard and be united with fellow disciples... To be able to become a role model for the disciples who enter later, so you, the master, must do your best to teach him well, can you do it?!"

Fan Mastiff took a look at Xu Xi and thought: Although I failed to become a senior brother, it is not bad for my disciple to become the next generation senior senior brother.

He held his head high and said loudly: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely teach Yue Chong well!"

Xue Chang looked around at the other apprentices, with a smile on his face: "Look at Fan Mastiff, now you have a disciple and a person you like. The two major events in life are about to be completed, and you all have to work hard!"

It was near the end of dinner that Mrs. Zhang and Zhou Wanyao entered the living room.

"Auntie, Mom, why did you come here!" Luo Lanmeng complained: "Didn't I tell you already, Yinyin has a maid to take care of her meals, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Can we not worry about it?" Zhang complained: "She has only been weaned for a few months, and it is not easy to get her to eat well. I also drank whitebait soup tonight. The fish pieces should not be too rotten. Otherwise, most of the essence in the meat will be lost, but there are too many thorns in the meat, if you don't clean it, Yinyin will get stuck in her throat if she eats it, how can those little girls be so careful..."

"Also, Xue Chang, as a father, you know that Yinyin eats restlessly and always likes to take that wolf with you, so you got her a wild cat, and she hugged the cat when she ate. I haven't let go, and Aunt Zhang and I have to keep wiping her hands and face, tell me, what are you doing?" Zhou Wanyao then complained that the reason why she was stationed in Xiaoyao was because of Gu Shijing After she got pregnant, the two of them felt embarrassed when they met in the Goddess Palace, so she simply left the Goddess Palace on the grounds of taking care of her pregnant daughter, and lived in the Xiaoyao faction for more than two years, but she got along very well with Zhang. Shi is not an ordinary woman, she was born in a scholarly family.

After being criticized by his mother-in-law, Xue Chang was not annoyed, and kept saying: "Auntie, Mom, you two eat here slowly, we still have important things to discuss, so we left first." He hurried out of the living room .

After dinner, the apprentices also left, and Luo Lanmeng was also going to the meeting hall in the front yard.

It stands to reason that Luo Lanmeng is not a member of the Xiaoyao Sect and should not participate in the discussions of the Xiaoyao Sect. After first coming to the residence of the Bashu Xiaoyao Sect, Luo Lanmeng thought so too, but Xue Chang insisted that Luo Lanmeng was his wife , is the teacher's wife of the disciples, who manages half of the family, how can she be ignored when discussing the affairs of the sect, she must participate!

The Xiaoyao faction was established by Xue Chang with his own strength. Although he later delegated power, he still has a lot of promises in the faction, not to mention that Luo Lanmeng is the eldest princess of the dynasty, so no one objected.

Luo Lanmeng was moved by her husband's trust. Although she was married, she was unwilling to stay at home and do nothing.At that time, Xue Fu also approached Xue Chang and said that he would hand over the financial power to Luo Lanmeng, after all, she is now the mistress of the Xue family.

Xue Chang was actually a little tempted, but he didn't agree right away. Instead, he asked Luo Lanmeng to assist Xue Fu in doing things first because he had no experience in financial management. At the same time, he also helped Xue Fu reduce his burden. After all, he is old now.

Xue Chang's decision was undoubtedly correct, because at the beginning of last year, Xue Fu began to fall ill frequently. Xue Chang found all kinds of panacea, and kapok tried his best to treat it, but none of them had good results. Fu was already bedridden, and died suddenly at the age of more than 70 at the end of the month.

This loyal servant who has served the Xue family for three generations has worked hard all his life.When he was young, he followed the Xue family to the Chengdu Mansion, and contributed a lot to the rise of the Xue Mansion to become a rich man; when he was middle-aged, he fully assisted Xue Hai in establishing the Jincheng Bodyguard Agency, which eventually became the largest bodyguard agency in the Bashu area; When the mansion was in decline and was about to fall apart, he was old and temporarily stabilized the situation. Finally, he waited for Xue Chang who had fled back, and tried his best to help Xue Chang revive his family business. In the last few years of his life, he saw Xue Chang bring the Xue family home To an unprecedented height, he can be considered dead without regret.

For Xue Fu's death, Xue Chang was very sad, because it was his full care and support that made him feel the warmth of this strange world for the first time, and gained a firm foothold... So Xue Chang held a big funeral for him , and guarded his spirit as a nephew, and let the whole Xiaoyao faction wear hemp and mourning for him for half a year, and finally buried his coffin next to Xue Hai's tomb.In last year's martial arts competition, the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect wore filial piety clothes to compete on stage. It was not until the beginning of this year that they changed into their school uniforms again.

After Xue Fu passed away, Luo Lanmeng took over the financial power of Paizhong, and at the same time took charge of the entire Xiaoyao Villa.

Today's Xiaoyao faction is not only a mansion and a restaurant in the past, not only the prosperity of commerce and trade on the land gifted by the Xiaoyao faction, but also its industries are widely spread in southern and eastern Sichuan. It is not easy to sort out the financial cashiers. The resident population is as many as hundreds of people, and it is not easy to manage.Logically, Luo Lanmeng should be relatively busy, but in fact she is very relaxed, because most of the specific affairs are completed by her subordinates.

There are many talents in her huge dowry team, for example, Jiang Zhiyan, her former housewife, is now the manager of the outer courtyard of Xiaoyao Villa, and another maid, Xiyue, is in charge of managing the account books of the Xiaoyao faction, and once served the emperor. The concubine, Nanqin, the old maid who was sent to take care of Luo Lanmeng, was the head of the inner court. As for Luo Lanmeng's attendant eunuch Liu Yong, Xue Chang sent him to manage the small town on the donated land and deal with those officials. .

At this moment, Liu Yong was already waiting in the meeting hall, and when he saw Xue Chang and others coming in, he hurried forward to bow and salute: "My servant pays homage to Lord Hou! Greetings to Eldest Princess!"

"Liu Yong, I've said it many times, you are now a member of my Xiaoyao sect, don't call yourself a slave, just salute and bow your hand, why did you forget again!" Xue Chang said angrily.

Liu Yong is the biggest talent that Xue Chang discovered in Luo Lanmeng's dowry team. He was deeply impressed by him when he was in Luoyang. He was in charge of the decoration of the new mansion and the preparation of the wedding. Everything went very smoothly. So after returning to Bashu, Xue Chang often deliberately arranged some tasks for him, and he completed them very well, especially in dealing with the government.

Originally, martial arts sects would try to avoid direct contact with the government, because this is a taboo.However, Xue Chang married the eldest princess of the dynasty and became a son-in-law, so he had to deal with the government inevitably. Among other things, there were [-] officers and soldiers stationed on the donated land for a long time.
