Sunrise in the East - Smile Allure

Impatient, as soon as his body moved, he grabbed him back to the carriage, ordered him to drink with him, and was not allowed to go out except to get out of the car and stay at the hotel.

He Qicheng only thought that he was cautious and worried that he would get into any trouble again.Even though he knew it was rare to encounter a killer like last time, he didn't like Dongfang Bubai's intentions.He was taken into captivity when he was young, and when he returned home, he rarely had congenial friends. When he met Dongfang Bubai at this time, he felt that the other party was admirable in everything he did and said. The days can go on forever.

After walking for ten days in a row, He Qicheng took another highly poisonous thing during this period.Dongfang Bubai didn't ask any more questions after seeing it, but sat down and tasted He Qicheng's handicraft.The poisonous scorpions baked with tiles are crispy and delicious when dipped in seasonings, and they are surprisingly delicious.

At noon that day, the group finally arrived at the city of Luoyang.Luoyang is known as the capital of the gods. Since the Xia, Shang, and Zhou Dynasties, a total of thirteen dynasties have established their capitals here, which lasted for more than [-] years.After the Northern Song Dynasty, the capital of the country was moved to the south, and Luoyang was brought under the rule of the Henan government, which gradually lost its former glory.Even so, it is still a world-renowned city.

As soon as He Qicheng and his party took a rest at the inn, a group of people came to find them noisily, and they said that they were shopkeepers of several shops of the He family in Luoyang.He Qicheng knew that Dongfang Bubai was happy, so he ordered Lufei to go out and make an appointment with a group of people, and we will talk at the banquet tomorrow night.

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but sneered when he heard the voices outside gradually disappearing: "You are busy with work!"

He Qicheng sighed, and said: "This matter is really difficult to deal with. If it is not done well, it will be infamous for thousands of years!"

Dongfang Bubai wondered: "Didn't you come to collect debts? No matter how bad you are, you will come back. How can you leave a bad reputation for thousands of years?"

He Qicheng shook his head: "Debt collection is debt collection, but there is a life lawsuit involved in the back. If you don't pay attention, the money has not been received, and the person will be arrested and questioned in the yamen first." Seeing Dongfang Bubai's suspicious expression, Explained: "The He family has only made a fortune for decades, but the first business they did was not selling objects, but giving money from their children. The He family's money from their children has always been 'nine times out and thirteen returns'. Borrowers borrow money Ten taels of silver, only nine taels in hand, but 13 taels have to be repaid after the due date. If you don’t pay back after the due date, you will have to pay more and more interest. If you borrow for two or three years, you may be able to double the principal with interest. Several times. In order to pay off debts, not to mention taking over houses and land, it is common to sell children and daughters."

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help frowning slightly upon hearing this.He knew that borrowing usury like this was tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst, and ordinary people would never do it unless they had to.He was poor when he was young, and he once witnessed the tragedy that his neighbors were forced by creditors to hang himself together.After practicing martial arts hard, starting from the last rank of the Sun Moon God Sect, and gradually accumulating meritorious deeds to rise to a high position, he no longer cared about earning money for his livelihood.Suddenly hearing He Qicheng mention it at this time, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional in my heart.

He Qicheng said again: "Most of the guys who lend money abroad are squatting near casinos and docks. In addition to lending money to ordinary people, they will also lend large sums of money to merchants and shops. As long as the other party can show the He family Mortgage, property, or shop, the amount of money is not a problem. When my father was still alive, there was finally someone at the top to supervise, and the people below did not dare to do anything wrong. After my father passed away, there was a group of young people People, in order to make the debtor repay the debt, so as to take the opportunity to embezzle the other party's property, they did everything possible, persecuted many innocent people, and caused the reputation of the He family to plummet. I took over the post of chief treasurer two years ago At that time, I sorted out all the people under my hand, but I didn't touch Luoyang's steward. It was because he was a person valued by my father, and the purpose of giving him this errand was to let him live in Luoyang. How could I not check for a while? , let him force an immobile person to death!"

The author has something to say: Hey, the leader is beginning to dislike the eldest young master attracting bees and butterflies outside 【Something seems wrong?

Part14

He Qicheng paused, and then said: "There is a teacher surnamed Wang in Luoyang City. He was poor all his life, and his old wife died the year before last. He borrowed 20 taels of silver from the He family in order to give his wife a decent burial. Not good at management, not only did not pay the principal, but even the interest was not paid after the maturity date. Such delays, until the end of last year could no longer be delayed, so he had no choice but to sell an ancient painting hidden in his home. Take it out as a pawn. The pawn shop he used to pawn the painting is also the property of the He family. Long before he borrowed money, he aimed at the ancient painting in the hands of Mr. Wang. Not only must he treat the painting as dead, but also alive The price was lowered to [-]%. Mr. Wang got the silver taels and went home. After thinking about it, he found that he had not paid off the interest for the painting. He was so depressed that he bought arsenic, poured it into the wine, and committed suicide in front of the grave of his dead wife."

Dongfang Bubai secretly thought that it is common for such partnerships to seek people's property, but the He family has done too much, if there is a glimmer of life left for people in the end, maybe it won't kill people.

He Qicheng said again: "Although this matter is inappropriate, the moneylenders under him have seen a lot on weekdays, and they don't think anything about it. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wang died less than three days ago, just in time for the new champion to return to his hometown to visit his relatives , The number one scholar in the new subject happened to be his student. The number one scholar went to visit the teacher, but found that the teacher had died tragically. It was only then that I realized that something was wrong, so I hurriedly reported it to the steward. The steward was old, and after hearing the news, he didn’t bring it up in one breath, so he died. So far, all the shopkeepers in the city have no leader, and the chaos has become a mess, so I had to ask someone to send a letter to me , let me come here quickly to make a decision.”

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but coldly snorted and said: "He died lightly and left a mess to you. I think this matter is easy to handle. You find someone from Mr. Wang's clan, and the two sides reconcile. Death They are all dead, and he committed suicide again, at worst, he can build a tomb for him.”

He Qicheng shook his head and said, "Mr. Wang's affairs are easy to handle. The trouble is that the champion of the new department insisted that the He family violated the court's laws and regulations. When Emperor Taizu killed Shen Wansan, the richest man in the world, there was a saying that the interest rate of private loans should not exceed three cents. , and regardless of the length of the loan, the interest shall not exceed half of the principal. Although this decree has been promulgated, it is rarely implemented in practice, and it is not known from which corner the champion came from. There is a saying that the people do not agree with it. Guan Dou, as an official of the imperial court, although his rank is not high, he is in the limelight, and now he has killed the He family, but it is still a trouble."

Dongfang Bubai's eyes widened slightly, and a sneer appeared on the corners of his lips: "If Zhuangyuan Lang dies, this case will be settled without a backer, or it will be settled once and for all? Or arrest Zhuang Yuanlang's parents, wife and children to threaten, I'd like to see Does he dare to sue again!"

He Qicheng couldn't help being stunned.He knew that Dongfang Bubai had a very murderous intention, but he never thought that he would come up with such an idea in order to settle his own case. This seems to be quite different from his usual "chivalrous behavior".He raised his eyes to look at Dongfang Bubai, and saw that man's eyes were as shining as autumn waters, and there was a bit of protection in his caring, and he suddenly understood.Dongfang Bubai treats him as one of his own, so he ignores right and wrong and wholeheartedly helps.

He Qicheng was moved in his heart, but he said: "I don't think it's that simple. Someone wants to dig a trap for the He family to jump down, but they don't want to see if I, Mr. He, are happy to jump down! There is no one in the world. The airtight wall, anyway, the lawsuit has dragged on for more than a month, let's take our time, there will always be a solution. If you have to bother Brother Dongfang for everything, then I am the chief shopkeeper. It's useless? It's still early in the day, why don't you go out with me for a stroll?"

Dongfang Bubai felt a little dissatisfied when he saw that He Qicheng didn't act according to his own will every time, and didn't want to go out at first.It's just that he raised his eyes and saw He Qicheng's face was sincere, but somehow, he nodded in a strange way.Seeing that he agreed, He Qicheng left Lu Fei just in case, took Zhao Da and Qian Er, and walked out of the inn with Dongfang Bubai.

There are two markets in Luoyang City, East and West.Most of the He family's property is in the East Market, and He Qicheng didn't want to see the shopkeeper so soon, so he brought Dongfang Bubai to the West Market.Along the way, both sides of the street are gradually bustling, and there are rows of shops of all kinds, which makes people feel dizzying.

"Brother Dongfang likes this?"

Seeing Dongfang Bubai's eyes paused for a moment, He Qicheng immediately stopped in his tracks, pointed to a shop selling embroidery on the street and said, "The products sold here are Cantonese embroidery, which is bright in color, complicated but not messy, and it looks like there are a few good ones." , shall we go in and take a look?"

Dongfang Bubai once dressed up as a woman on the Blackwood Cliff, and also learned a few looks.He has excellent martial arts skills and excellent eyesight, so he is naturally not comparable to ordinary embroiderers. Although the patterns are simple, they can often embroider beautifully and exquisitely.Seeing the embroidered screens in this store at this time, I can only feel that the composition is full, with layers of flowers, birds, mountains and rivers, which is quite different from what I have seen before.I saw Lie Xinxi for a while, so I couldn't help but look at it a few more times.He didn't want He Qicheng to find out that he had learned embroidery, so he said coldly, "I don't have anything to buy."

He Qicheng rolled his eyes, and suddenly remembered that Dongfang Bubai had no silver at all when he was in Jiandi. The Cantonese embroidery in this shop was transported a long way from Guangzhou to Luoyang, and the price might not be cheap. Which one, he has an aloof personality, so naturally it is impossible to ask him for it, probably because of this, he obviously likes it but wants to avoid it?

He glanced at the signboard outside the shop, and he already had some concerns in his mind. He pulled Dongfang Bubai's sleeves, and said in a low voice, "To be honest, Brother Dongfang, the He family also has embroidery business in Luoyang City. It's just that we sell Suzhou embroidery, but It's not Cantonese embroidery. If Brother Dongfang doesn't mind, can you go in with my younger brother and spy on the 'enemy situation' along the way?"

Dongfang Bubai didn't want to be too persistent, but instead aroused He Qicheng's suspicion, so he nodded immediately.After his xinxing recovered, he felt that what he did on the Blackwood Cliff was like a big dream, even he himself couldn't believe it.He had already made up his mind to kill all the people who saw him dressed as a woman at Heimuya that day.It's just that He Qicheng has seen himself wearing women's clothes... He focused his eyes slightly, staring at He Qicheng's back, and suddenly felt that there was another "numerous crimes" on He Qicheng's body.It's just that killing him can't get rid of the hatred in my heart, so it's better to take him back to Heimuya and force him to take the Three Corpse Brain Pill, and let him manage money for the god religion while slowly torturing him.The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was very clever, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

He Qicheng walked into the shop and explained each embroidery to Dongfang Bubai in detail, such as how to compose a picture, how to choose a color, how to stitch, how to finish, what is good, and where is the flaw, his mouth doesn't stop for a moment.Dongfang Bubai had never heard of such exquisite embroidery, but he listened with great interest.The clerk in the shop at the side saw a knowledgeable son, and immediately went to the shopkeeper to greet him personally.

When the shopkeeper stood in front of him respectfully, He Qicheng said that he wanted to choose a robe for his brother-in-law. The price was not an issue, as long as the embroidery was good enough, the style was new enough, and it would be enough to bring out the temperament when worn on the body.The shopkeeper took a look at Dongfang Bubai, only felt that this man was extraordinary, even standing next to him felt terrified, thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said that he would go to the storeroom to get a suitable one.

While waiting, He Qicheng told Dongfang Bubai about the four famous embroidery in the world.Seeing Dongfang Bubai's eyes light up slightly, he couldn't help but grab Dongfang Bubai's palm, and blurted out: "Could it be that Brother Dongfang wants to learn?"

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but turn slightly pale when he was talking about the central matter, and then his heart became angry, his cheeks were stained red again, and he was stunned by He Qicheng.He Qicheng only felt that the palm he was holding was slightly twisted, and he felt guilty for no reason, so he let go of his fingers.

He Qicheng secretly scolded himself for being so confused.His "righteous brother" is a hero in the rivers and lakes. At most, he just doesn't like walking around the streets, so he has never seen such exquisite embroidery. How could he want to learn embroidery?But just now, there was a bit of eagerness in that person's eyes, and his expression was relaxed and comfortable that he had never seen before, which made people very happy to see him.It would be disrespectful for me to blurt out without thinking after I saw it.He cupped his hands at Dongfang Bubai and said, "I said something wrong, Brother Dongfang, don't take it to heart. Huh? This is rare." Seeing the shopkeeper coming out with a shirt in his hands, his eyes lit up immediately, and he went up to meet him.

It was not the first time that Dongfang Bubai was confronted by He Qicheng's words, but it was the first time he heard him apologize to himself. For a while, he forgot all about the style he used to be the leader of the leader, and felt a little at a loss.Seeing that He Qicheng had already unfolded the clothes in the hands of the shopkeeper, he couldn't help walking over.

A snow-white robe embroidered with the peonies of Luoyang.Yao, Huang, Wei and Zi are accompanied by each other, and there are even colorful butterflies flying among them. The colors are gorgeous, which is really eye-catching.The shopkeeper was still talking about the origin and exquisiteness of this embroidery, but He Qicheng shook his head and said: "The embroidery is good embroidery, but the artistry is a bit strange, it doesn't seem to be produced in the Central Plains."

The shopkeeper couldn't help giving a thumbs up when he heard the words: "Young master has good eyesight! I was just about to talk about this section. The person who painted this embroidery was originally a Western painter. He contracted malaria a few years ago in Guangzhou, and was killed by an embroiderer Zhuang's embroiderer saved her life, so she simply stayed. This person's paintings are quite different from ordinary paintings, with layer upon layer of color, interlaced light and shadow, but not messy at all. Look carefully, but it is a rare and high-quality product! Not to mention Luoyang City, even the entire Henan Province is the only one."

He Qicheng looked at it carefully for a while, and felt that although the peonies on the robe were not the most luxurious, they were a little more enchanting, and they complemented Dongfang Bubai's temperament. Yixiong took a measure of his body shape, and sent it to the Four Seas Inn after the modification."

The shopkeeper hadn't answered yet, but someone behind him suddenly raised his voice: "Wait a minute! How much is this robe worth? I'll buy it with you three times!"

Part15

Dongfang Bubai didn't want to accept the things He Qicheng gave him, but he suddenly remembered that the clothes around him were all made by He Qicheng himself when he was saving himself, and had someone rush to make them. He hesitated and did not object.Suddenly being disturbed by someone at this moment, anger arose from his heart, and Liu Mei frowned, looking for an opportunity to attack.

The shopkeeper recognized the person as Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju, the grandsons of Wang Yuanba, the well-known head of the Golden Knife Sect in Luoyang City. Welcome! Both of you want to choose embroidery at will. Our store has a new batch of high-quality goods, and the embroidery materials are all very outstanding. It would be perfect to give it to the female relatives in the mansion. But this one was ordered first by this young master Next, do business on a first-come-first-served basis, please forgive me, the two young heroes." He knew that the Golden Saber Wang family had other rules for male disciples' dress, and most of the people who came to buy embroidery were for the female family members of the mansion, and seldom would. Buy men's clothes, that's why there is such a saying.

Unexpectedly, Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju fell in love with the robe in He Qicheng's hand today.Wang Jiaju tugged on his elder brother's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "The two of us have been shopping all the way but we haven't found a gift that we like, I think this robe is not bad, brother Li must be very handsome wearing it. It is rare for him to come back, and he will rush back to the capital to take up his post in the spring. We are no better than the two cousins, who can embroider a purse and sachet as a gift, and sending him a coat can also express our heart."

Wang Jiajun nodded, signaling to his younger brother to be safe and calm, he cupped his hands to He Qicheng and Dongfang Bubai and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you two young masters. I'm Wang Jiajun at Jindaomen in Luoyang, this is my younger brother Wang Jiaju. An old man was shopping for a gift. He saw that the robes in the hands of the two were not bad. He heard from the shopkeeper that this was the only one in Luoyang City. I wonder if the two can part with each other? The price is all easy to say. I don’t think the accents of the two are locals. The Dao Wang family never bullies distant guests, since the two of you are here first, as long as you tell me a price, I will pay for it." After he finished speaking, he stood aside with a slight smile, looking quite like a good son of a troubled world.

Dongfang Bubai showed a smile on his face, and asked the shopkeeper, "I wonder how much this robe is worth?"

The shopkeeper quickly said it was 60 taels.Nowadays, a piece of plain white cloth is only four cents and eight cents of silver, and the monthly expenses of a family of three are only two taels of silver.However, one of the two parties to the transaction is the chief treasurer of a wealthy businessman, and the other is the grandson of a local tycoon, so they don't think the price is too high.

Dongfang Bubai nodded, and said to Wang Jiajun, "You said let me buy it first, and you bought it later?"

Wang Jiajun thought that he wanted to make a profit from it, and secretly wondered, how could this man be so greedy for cheap?Nodding yes at the moment.Wang Jiaju looked at Dongfang Bubai with contempt.Only He Qicheng knew that Dongfang Bubai might not give these two people good fruit to eat.Although he looks modest and gentle on the outside, he has always had the temperament of "people respect me one foot, I respect others ten feet, people destroy me one millet, and I take three fights from others".What's more, he heard some clues from Wang Jiaju's words, and he didn't want to let it go.

Seeing Wang Jiajun nodding, Dongfang Bubai immediately gave He Qicheng a look.He Qicheng smiled knowingly, turned around and told the shopkeeper Zhao Datong to collect the banknotes.After the 60 taels of silver were paid and things changed hands, Wang Jiajun looked forward to Dongfang Bubai, but saw him sticking out three fingers.

"300 taels?" Although Wang Jiajun is the eldest grandson of the Jindao Wang family, he can only withdraw 200 taels of silver a month.He spends extravagantly, often rewarding his servants with more than five renminbi, and spending money like water on drinking and having fun.Over the years, money goes in with the left hand and out with the right, but there really isn't much left over.Dongfang Bubai asked for 300 taels, more than half of the silver taels around him.Fortunately, he and his younger brother have always had a very good relationship, and the 300 taels of silver could be afforded evenly between the two.It's just that he just said that he would buy it from the shopkeeper at three times the price, and now he spent more than 100 taels for no reason in order to maintain a famous family style.Wang Jiaju on the side was even more anxious to get angry, but his elder brother had said everything, and he couldn't go back on his words, so he spat viciously on the ground.

Dongfang Bubai shook his head: "If this robe is still in the store, it is just an ordinary item, and the price of 300 taels is too much. Now it is in the hands of my foster brother, his status is very different, and the price Naturally, a rising tide raises all boats, there is no 3000 taels of silver...we will not sell it!"

Wang Jiaju couldn't help but said angrily: "Are you entertaining our brothers?"

Dongfang Bubai smiled and said nothing, but it was clearly written on his face, so what if he just entertained you.He Qicheng next to him showed a look of doubt on purpose, adding fuel and jealousy: "Huh? This young man from the Golden Knife Gate who is shining all over his body can't afford a mere 3000 taels? Sigh... I still think that the top and bottom of the Golden Knife Gate are made of gold, You can buy half of Luoyang City by just breaking off the tip of a knife! Forget it, forget it, as the saying goes, there is no righteousness in buying and selling, so let the two young heroes go. Shopkeeper, hurry up and help my brother-in-law Measure the size? Quickly change the robe, and you will have to wear it tomorrow morning!" Although he was raising the Golden Knife Gate and belittling himself, who would not be able to tell that he was ironic?

"What did you say?" Wang Jiaju was very hot-tempered, he couldn't help being furious when he heard the words, his eyebrows were erected, and he hit He Qicheng's chest with a move of "pushing the window and looking at the moon" with his right palm.His original intention was to teach He Qicheng a lesson, but his subordinates did not use their full strength.On the side, Wang Jiajun also felt that these two strangers were deceiving people too much, and even broke ground on Tai Sui's head, but he didn't stop his younger brother when he saw ordinary people doing things.

Unexpectedly, He Qicheng saw the opportunity very quickly, shouting "The Jindaomen business is not going to go through, we will kill people to silence it", he turned around and hid behind Dongfang Bubai.How could Dongfang Bubai take Wang Jiaju seriously.I didn't see how he made a move, Wang Jiaju used his old moves but couldn't hold back his strength, he bumped his head against the corner of the counter, broke a big part of his head, and immediately bled profusely.

Don't say that Wang Jiaju himself was stunned by this bump, even Wang Jiajun couldn't help being stunned.He thought to himself, could it be that my brother drank too much last night and has not sobered up to now?How about going up to push people, and falling down before they touch them?

Seeing Wang Jiaju fell to the ground, He Qicheng poked out half of his head from behind Dongfang Bubai, and said loudly: "No way, no way! Why did Wang Shaoxia make such a big gift to me? It is said that a man has gold under his knees. Why do you have to condescend so much for a thing outside of your body? Since you like this robe so much, I will give it to you. It is only 3000 taels. I never paid attention to it. Shopkeeper, hurry up and help me lift Wang Shaoxia up! That robe was also sent to Wang Shaoxia's mansion for me, and it will be regarded as a good relationship between me and the world-famous Jindao Wang family!"

Wang Jiajun didn't react until now, and he didn't bother to ask He Qicheng to argue, and together with the shopkeeper, he helped Wang Jiaju up from the ground.Just as Wang Jiaju was about to speak, he felt a sudden pain in his chest, spit out a mouthful of blood with a wow, and immediately passed out again.Wang Jiajun was afraid that his brother might make a mistake, and at the moment he was pinching someone and administering medicine. After a long time of work, Wang Jiaju woke up leisurely again.Since Wang Jiajun woke up, his eyes were blank, as if he had lost his soul.Wang Jiajun was in a hurry, he wanted to find He Qicheng and Dongfang Bubai again, but they had already disappeared.

Besides, He Qicheng took advantage of the chaos and dragged Dongfang Bubai out of the shop, all the way to a restaurant, sat down in a private room, and then burst out laughing.Dongfang Bubai still felt a little unsatisfied.If he followed his previous temper, the two "young heroes" of the Wang family would have died on the spot.It's just that this time he came out with He Qicheng, for He Qicheng's sake he gave a small punishment.If so, Wang Jiaju's Qihai Dantian has been sealed, and it is impossible to make any progress in martial arts from now on.Seeing He Qicheng's sly face and smiling happily, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but feel a little happy. After thinking about it, he felt that He Qicheng's 60 taels of silver was a waste of money, so he couldn't help complaining: "Why don't you take the robe away?"

He Qicheng laughed and said, "It's not a loss to see a good show for 60 taels of silver."

Dongfang Bubai said angrily: "Do you think I'm playing a monkey show for you?"

"How is it possible?" He Qicheng said solemnly, "This is not a monkey show. This play was originally famous, it was called "Jade Yanluo Cleverly Folds the Golden Sword, He Jiazi Smiled and Watched the Fun", hahahaha!" He likes to prick up his ears to listen to people's stories, and it is appropriate to make up a name at this time, which makes Dongfang Bubai smile.

He Qicheng paused, and then said: "Besides, the embroidery on that robe is pretty common. Later, I will take you to Gusu City to have a look at Suzhou embroidery. The seamlessness of the needles and threads is really ingenious! Listen! Xiuniang said that there are more than [-] kinds of stitches in Suzhou embroidery alone, and a long thread can be dyed with hundreds of colors. Xiuniangs use needles to paint, and their skills are inherited from the Wu School. How can any Western painter be compared?"

Dongfang Bubai couldn't help being fascinated when he heard it, and forgot about the "great cause of revenge" for a while. He just thought that He Qicheng knew a lot, and it would never be boring to be with him.The two had dinner in the restaurant and drank three altars of Dukang fine wine, and then they went back to the inn together.

On the second day, He Qicheng first went to the home of the old steward of the He family to pay homage to the mourning hall.He didn't embarrass the old steward's family, he paid the banker generously, and comforted Datong so that the other party should not worry about the lawsuit, and then left to go to the restaurant that he had agreed with the shopkeepers.

Since the matter of distributing money to the mother and son was taken to court, the He family's property in Luoyang has been excluded by peers in many places.As the saying goes, people do not fight with officials.A group of merchants saw that the He family had annoyed the Xinke champion, and they were afraid that they would be in constant trouble in the future, so they were not allowed to pay on credit immediately, and they did not buy goods from the He family, which made all the shopkeepers very worried.At the banquet, He Qicheng first comforted him with kind words, and then promised that the matter would be resolved within three days, which made the shopkeepers leave with smiles on their faces.

Dongfang Bubai knew that He Qicheng had already made up his mind, so he was not surprised to see him setting up a show in the room the next day, laying out paper and rubbing ink, preparing to practice calligraphy.While studying ink, He Qicheng asked Dongfang Bubai about the martial arts of Wang Yuanba, the invincible golden sword.Dongfang Bubai sneered, and said something that was not worth mentioning.He Qicheng immediately felt relieved, dipped a brush in ink, handed it to Dongfang Bubai, and said with a smile, "Brother Dongfang, can you please give me a calligraphy brush?"

The author has something to say: Invincible Golden Sword Wang Yuanba is Xiao Linzi's grandfather, and Linghu Chong met Ren Yingying when he followed the Huashan people to visit there.

The description of this family in the original book is more interesting.When Lin Zhennan and his wife fled, they thought about going to Wang Yuanba for protection, and they also said that as long as Wang Yuanba invited heroes from three mountains and five mountains, they could fight Yu Canghai.Yu Canghai ranked in the top ten in terms of martial arts integrity, so Wang Yuanba should not be too weak.But Liu Zhengfeng invited the heroes of the world to participate in the ceremony of washing hands in the golden basin, but Wang Yuanba did not attend. (Otherwise Yu Canghai and Mu Gaofeng bullied his grandson face to face, and he should go up and take care of it out of face. Moreover, Liu Zhengfeng is the second-ranked figure of the Hengshan Sect, and even the Wuyue Sword Sect sent quite a number of people to watch the ceremony. The status of Daomen is lower than that of Wuyue Sword Sect. Wang Yuanba could not just send his son to offend Hengshan Sect for no reason.) Later, before Lin Zhennan and his wife died, they heard that Lin Pingzhi had already entered Huashan, so they never confessed About Wang Yuanba.Lin Pingzhi carried the coffin all the way to the north, passing through Luoyang, but he didn't ask to see his grandpa and grandma.Afterwards, there was no news that Wang Yuanba called his friends to trouble Yu Canghai.Until Lin Pingzhi took Yue Buqun and others to Luoyang, Wang Yuanba tried his best to push Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan's marriage, and never mentioned the matter of revenge for his daughter and son-in-law. (Considering that Jin Yong mentioned a sentence in the third edition, this may just be a bug.)

To sum up, it is very likely that Jindaomen is also far inferior to Fuwei Escorts in terms of skill and reputation, and belongs to the sect that relies on human relationships to travel through the rivers and lakes. (At least from the fact that the Green Bamboo Man can easily break the arms of Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju, the martial arts of the third generation disciples of the Golden Sword Sect are indeed common.) So Lin Zhennan wanted to find Wang Yuanba for protection at first, but he was desperate Once he heard that his son could learn much stronger martial arts by joining the Huashan School, he never mentioned the Golden Knife School again.Liu Zhengfeng is a relatively arrogant person, which can be seen from the fact that he has a great relationship with the sect leader, he is not speculative, and he never wants to do superficial work.He may feel that the name of Jindaomen is not worthy of the name, or he is not used to certain behaviors of Jindaomen (for example, Liu Zhengfeng thinks that he is "self-defiled" by buying an official from the court, but Wang Yuanba actually found a governor I wrote an inscription on my home and hung it in a conspicuous place) That's why I didn't invite you on purpose.Since Wang Yuanba was not as strong as others, he felt that if Yu Canghai didn't come to trouble him, he would be Amitabha, so after his daughter and son-in-law died, he continued to be a coward.Lin Pingzhi's grandmother was very kind to him, but when Lin Pingzhi took the Huashan faction to visit, he did not mention this old lady, so it is very likely that Wang Yuanba's old wife has passed away in the past few years up.This also made Wang Yuanba lack motivation for revenge.Another possibility is that when Wang Yuanba married his daughter to Lin Zhennan, he was more or less planning to plot the evil sword manual. Although Yu Canghai killed the Lin couple, he did not get the evil sword manual. It was a waste of money (inviting heroes of the rivers and lakes to work hard, but it costs money!) There is no interest in finding him for revenge.Although he knew that the Evil Resisting Sword Manual might fall into Yue Buqun's hands, but he had no choice but to give up because it was far inferior to the Huashan School.At the same time, being sensitive to interpersonal relationships, as soon as she saw the small flames between Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan, she immediately began to stir up this marriage, so as to further draw her relationship with the Huashan faction.

Part16

As soon as the three-day deadline came, He Qicheng invited the elders of Mr. Wang's scholar clan to come forward and invite Zhuangyuan Lang to settle the matter privately.Zhuangyuan Lang didn't refuse, and immediately put on hemp and mourning, held the teacher's tablet, and invited several gentry in the city to come to Baiyun Tower, the number one restaurant in Luoyang.

Seeing this, He Qicheng first bowed to invite Wang Shusheng's spiritual seat into the private room, and then ordered people to burn incense and paper, place tributes, and hang white flags, as if a temporary mourning hall was built.That Zhuangyuan Lang's eyes were red, and without looking at He Qicheng, he kowtowed three times to the spirit card, turned around and said to the clan chiefs and noble gentry, unless the He family promised him three things, he would never let it go, he would definitely Let the government seek justice for the teacher.

He Qicheng cupped his hands and said, "I don't know which three things are it?"

Zhuangyuan Lang said coldly: "For the first thing, the He family must rebuild the cemetery for the family teacher and teacher's wife, and choose another place with beautiful mountains and rivers for a dignified burial."

He Qicheng nodded and said: "This matter was originally a matter of He."

Zhuangyuan Lang said again: "The second thing is that you, the chief shopkeeper, have to pretend to be a filial son in front of your teacher's grave and keep a filial piety for three years, so as to forgive his old man's spirit in heaven."

As soon as these words came out, not only He Qicheng frowned slightly, but Dongfang Bubai beside him became even more murderous.Dongfang Bubai came here today, originally to see if He Qicheng had any tricks up his sleeve to solve this matter in private.When he heard that Zhuangyuan Lang wanted He Qicheng to pretend to be a filial son, to serve a poor scholar who didn't know the so-called three years of filial piety, his heart immediately became angry and his energy was released.

At first, the number one scholar only thought that the people around He Qicheng were good-looking, but now he was coldly swept by Dongfang Bubai's eyes, his sweat was dripping down his face, and his heart was beating like a drum.He was successful at a young age, and dared to speak freely in front of the emperor in the Golden Palace, but now he was only glanced at by Dongfang Bubai, and his heart palpitations were unbearable, it was really inconceivable.Thinking of this, he couldn't help being startled and uncertain, and couldn't help but look at Dongfang Bubai a few more times.

Seeing that Zhuangyuan Lang turned pale, one of the three invited gentry immediately stood up.I saw that man was about seventy years old, his face was full of red light, he had a white beard under his chin and two golden gallbladders in his left hand, his temples on both sides were bulging, he was the famous Golden Knife Gate in Luoyang City The master of the sect is Wang Yuanba, who is invincible with the Golden Sword.The Golden Knife Wang family is not only a family of martial arts, but also one of the most wealthy and powerful families in Luoyang City. In addition, they are known as fair, so they are often invited as notarizers.In normal times, having a second-generation disciple, such as Wang Yuanba's sons Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang, would be a great deal of face.This time Zhuangyuan Lang invited him, but he also invited Wang Yuanba.

As soon as Wang Yuanba saw that Zhuangyuan Lang was intimidated by Dongfang Bubai's aura, he saw that Dongfang Bubai's martial arts were good, so he quickly stepped forward and said loudly: "I think this is the right thing to do. Old Master Wang has been poor all his life. There is not even a person to die. The He family persecuted him to death, so they should die for him and his wife out of reason and reason."

As Wang Yuanba said, the golden gallbladder in his left hand clanged. It was a unique skill he had realized in recent years, using internal force to shake the golden gallbladder and disturbing the enemy's internal strength with sound.This tactic also has an advantage, the higher the opponent's skill is, the more affected he will be, but it doesn't matter to ordinary people.Wang Yuanba thought to himself that this move could be compared with Shaolin Temple's "Lion's Roar" magical skill, and he has always been proud of it.He couldn't figure out the origin of Dongfang Bubai's martial arts for a while, so he wanted to use this method to make Dongfang Bubai retreat despite difficulties.How did he know that Dongfang Bubai's martial arts had already reached the point where he could send and receive freely.As long as he doesn't want to practice martial arts, let alone two golden guts, even eight hundred monks from Shaolin Temple yell at him, he can still be unmoved in the slightest.

Wang Yuanba sees Dongfang not
