scumbag

One and a half months later, Jin, Chuqing, Wanchao, and Yinghuan came to Jinnan City, thousands of miles away from Tang Baicheng.

Ying Huanwan followed Jin Chuqing to the reserved room and waited for the food to be served.

Xiao Er refills wine for several people, closes the door and leaves in a hurry.

Wan Chao: "Although every major restaurant is full of people every time we go to the Hero Club, this year is especially lively."

"Only one guest room is booked, Wan Chao, why don't you go outside and deal with it on the tree for one night?"

Wan Chao: "It's broad daylight, why are you talking in your sleep?"

"Tsk—"

After dinner, the three of Jin, Chu, and Qing went to Qingpingyuan, the home venue of the Heroes Club. The Heroes Club was initially organized by a few experts from Jianghu. clubhouse.Later, the Heroes Association slowly developed and grew, and gradually became involved with the forces of the Jianghu and the ruling and opposition forces. The meaning and influence of the Heroes Association at the beginning became different. Most sects in the Jianghu would send people to participate.

"I said, do you have an invitation letter for the Hero Club?" Ying Huan thought.

"If you don't have it, you can't come in?" Jin Chuqing held Ying Huan's invitation letter in his hand, "Do you want to come together?" Hero Club can take one person out.

"give me back!"

……

The so-called evil fate is probably the fate that can still be met after committing evil.

Jin Chuqing looked at Yang Yun.

Years of experience in the rivers and lakes told Jin Chuqing that she must not admit it at this time.

Qingpingyuan is the private residence of the Yang family. The wife of the Yang family is old friends with Wan Chaoniang and Ying Huan's father. After hearing the news that Qingpingyuan belongs to, Wanchao proposes to visit together.

As the landlords, the Yang family was supposed to entertain and accompany the distinguished guests, but Wan Chao and the others didn't want to disturb them, so they didn't let anyone go to report, and they went directly to Yang Yun, the only one in the Yang family who was not doing business.

So it was embarrassing.

"This is Yang Yun." Wan Chao said at the entrance of Pengxi Pavilion, "A Yun, this is the elder brother Rong Han you have always admired."

"Jin Chuqing!"

Wan Chaoying Huan was startled.

"Do you think I won't recognize you if you change your skin?"

Ying Huan came back to her senses and asked Yang Yun how she knew he was Jin Chuqing, and when did she meet Jin Chuqing.

Yang Yun truthfully replied that when she and Yang Gongqi went to Lancheng to replace Yang Xi to talk about the shop more than two months ago, she just had a face-to-face meeting with Jin Chuqing there. If it sounds good, it will make people dumb him. How could she and Yang Gong be given Yigong San by Jin Chuqing's two guards.

"You two are talking about a shop?" Ying Huan, "This is much more shocking than you saying he is Jin Chuqing. Did Yang Xi make up his mind not to have that shop?"

"It's almost done. Can't we go to the local area for investigation?"

"Could you be the one who made it up again? How could Yang Gong travel far?"

"Can you stop interrupting, the key to the problem now is him." Yang Yun pointed at Jin Chuqing.

Wan Chao: "...The rivers and lakes are so big, it's normal for someone to look alike. We've known each other for seven years, and he's really Rong Han."

Yang Yun looked at Jin Chuqing suspiciously, if this person was Jin Chuqing, then she would have scared the snake, if not, she would have disturbed the happy scene of the rare reunion.

She should pretend nothing happened, and then ask her second brother for an appraisal.

The little boy was not with Yang Yun, he was worried about his sister, and returned to Lancheng after waking up. Yang Yun wanted to compensate him with a few hundred taels of silver, but he didn't want it.

Although Yang Yun used to admire Rong Han extremely, but the lesson from last time gave her a new understanding of the world. For Rong Han, to be precise, she no longer has the slightest yearning for people like Rong Han.

Glancing at Jin Chuqing, Yang Yun snorted in disgust.

Wan Chao stood beside Jin Chuqing and shook his head: "Ah Yun is still young, please don't mind the rudeness of Brother Rong."

Ying Huan, who was walking in front, said, "You're pretty good, girl, this is the first time I've seen this guy slumped in front of a woman in all these years."

"..." Jin Chuqing: "The most rude one is that one."

Wan Chao smiled.

Several people took their seats in the pavilion, Yang Yun ordered her servants to inform the Yang family of Wan Chaoying Huan's message, but was persuaded by Wan Chaoying Huan, she thought about it and said that would be fine, then she ordered her servants to tell the second young master Yang to come over .

The Second Young Master Yang Gong is so indifferent and taciturn.How could Yang Gong be hijacked by bandits when he was young? The leader of the bandits was a widow whose child died. After receiving the ransom, they did not return him to the Yang family. dead.

At that time, Yang and his wife were only a little famous, and they spent three years and five months recruiting soldiers and buying horses to build a cottage with the pain of losing their son, and finally wiped out all the bandits.Yang Gongqi was five and a half years old when he was kidnapped, and he was nine years old when the Yangs and his wife found him in a dark and damp iron cage.mark.

When the servant passed the word, Yang Gong was practicing swords in a remote place. Since he was 14 years old, Yang Gong has never lost to anyone of his age. If he does not join forces, he will have the confidence to fight against any one of them. .But Jin Chuqing was different, he didn't even know how far he was from Jin Chuqing.

Yang Gongqi came to Pengxi Pavilion, and the leisurely man sitting on the seat was the person Yang Gongqi "thinks about day and night" recently.

"Second brother, you are here. Do you see that this person is Jin Chuqing? I told them, but they didn't believe it."

"I didn't say I didn't believe it." Ying Huan put his hands on Jin Chuqing's shoulders, and approached Jin Chuqing, "It looks like it no matter what."

Yang Gong looked at Jin Chuqing for a while: "Who are you?"

"...Rong Han."

Yang Gongqi: "..."

Yang Yun was surprised: "Second brother, you can see clearly, he... isn't he Jin Chuqing?"

Yang Gongqi: "..."

Rather, he cannot be Jin Chuqing.

If the news of Jin Chuqing's arrival in Yang's mansion spreads, I'm afraid that the assassin organizations from all over the world will step down the threshold of Yang's family.

"When did you move to Jinnan City? We only learned the news today." Wan Chao.

"It's been a while." Yang Gong said.

Yang Yun was still staring at Jin Chuqing: "Mother sent a letter to the Paifeng Court to inform you about this before. Maybe you left early and didn't receive it."

They set off half a year ago and went to Beisuan to do some errands.

In the evening, there was a dinner specially prepared by the Yang family for Ying Wan and the two of them. The Hero Club opened. As representatives of the Paifeng Court, Ying Wan and the two would report for duty no matter what, so they got ready early.

Except for Yang Gong, who doesn't hear anything outside the window, and Yang Yun, who is ignorant, both of the Yang family have met Jin Chuqing, who is Rong Han, and knew about his relationship with Ying Wan, so it's not surprising, but I didn't expect it He disappeared for so long, and suddenly appeared.

Seeing the weird atmosphere, Yang Xi, the eldest brother of the Yang family, asked what was going on. Wan Chao said it was okay, and it was just a misunderstanding between them in the afternoon. Yang Yun glared at Jin Chuqing and didn't answer.

Yang Xi didn't ask any further questions, but only made fun of Yang Yun.

Yang Yun was quite obsessed with Rong Han in the early days, and she just kept talking about Rong Han. She also loved listening to his legends, and then wrote his name based on the imagined Rong Han in these legend paintings. The paper that has been swayed by pen and ink must be at least as thick as ten history books to bind.

Yang Yun became angry from embarrassment: "Don't talk nonsense."

Wan Chao stays at the Yang Mansion, and Ying Huan and Jin Chuqing return to Juxiang Building.

"...You sent someone to save me two years ago?"

"how?"

"...You really dumbed down a child?"

"--Um."

"why?"

"He's showing off his tongue, but I'm playing fierce."

-

late at night.The man kneeled on one knee one meter away:

"The leader ordered Ling Yi not to show up unless the young master finds out, disturbing the young master's interest."

"What about the purpose?"

"There is civil turmoil in the Yunxiang Pavilion, the right protector You Guanglian ascended the position of the pavilion master, the left protector was imprisoned, and ten dead waiters were killed. The leader hopes that the young master can find the missing Yunxiang Pavilion master Yun Zheng... This is his. portrait."

"And kill him?"

"Zero and I don't know."

Jin Chuqing glanced at the person in the painting: sword-like brows stood erect, phoenix eyes raised upside down, thin lips and straight nose—he seemed to have seen something similar somewhere.

Luoyue outside the window understood, Jin Chuqing looked at the man in the painting: "Yun Zheng...does he have any close relatives?"

Ling Yi stood by Jin Chuqing's side: "From the current news, he has no father, no mother, no relatives, and no reason."

"No wife or children?"

"No."

Jin Chuqing: "Do you still have any memory of the kid who came to the inn (inn) before?"

Zero One: "Yes."

"Do you think he resembles Yun Zheng?"

Ling Yi: "Ling eyes clumsy, can't tell." That's not like it.

"..."

Jin Chuqing put the painting on the candlelight, and the blue smoke rose: "Check out his details."

"Yes."

Ying Huan is the good head of Paifeng Court, and the good head is the most powerful person in Paifeng Court other than the head elder.Ying Huan took office two years ago, and now he is gaining momentum in the arena.

Jin Chuqing sat in the pavilion wearing a mask and watched Ying Huanwan greet the visitors.Wan Chao bought this mask for him, saying it was to prevent history from repeating itself.

Although there will be a few people in strange costumes who pretend to dress up for various reasons at each hero meeting, but there are not many in general, so Jin Chuqing's appearance as a masked man is quite eye-catching.

After leaving the pavilion, Jin Chuqing began to appreciate Wan Chao's foresight.

After a lap, Jin Chuqing found that [-]% of them had socialized with him at this meeting, and [-]% were his enemies.

The outside is as lively as ever, with people singing big plays, people selling candied haws, people selling silk and satin accessories, people doing acrobatics, and making gadgets... Jin Chuqing met him when he was hiding in a tree in the nearby forest. Anyone who wants to hang himself has everything.

The person who committed suicide was an old man in his twilight years. When his neck touched the cloth, the old man cried very sadly.

A well-looking young man came out of the forest. Seeing this scene, he bent down and picked up a stone to break the white cloth. He stepped forward and asked the old man if there was anything he couldn't think of.

The old man put away his tears and glanced at him, then staggered away.

Three days later, when Jin Chuqing was drinking with Ying Wan and the other two in the tavern, they heard the drinkers discussing the matter of old man Qian hanging in the forest in the city.

When the old man was young, he was a bit capable but quite a mess.He was hypocritical and stingy with his relatives and friends, beat and scolded his wife and daughter, even when his mother was seriously ill, he still spent time and money outside, and did not contribute a penny or effort for her.

Because of his long-term abuse, his wife was very weak. At the age of 40, she contracted a serious disease and died soon.His daughter has always been brooding over her mother's death, and has never returned to the house after marrying away.His son is ignorant and idle all day long. He became a robber when he was 20 years old. He abandoned his wife just like him, and abandoned his son even worse than him.

And his relatives and friends treated him the same way he treated them back then, maybe someone would come to help him occasionally, but no one really reached out to him.

30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi.

He has no ability to work now, and he can't even afford to eat. A week ago, when old man Qian was picking up food on the street corner, he learned that his son had been arrested outside the city and sentenced to hang.

"...Wanchao is dueling with someone in the afternoon, don't run around anymore." Ying Huan.

Jin Chuqing: "Who is the opponent?"

"The insects in Piaoxiao Pavilion." Ying Huan.

"Is there such a person in Piaoxiao Pavilion?" Jin Chuqing.

"I haven't heard of it either." Wan Chao said.

"What have you heard?" Ying Huan said, "Don't embarrass the Exhaust Court."

The sky in the afternoon was suddenly overcast. Jin Chuqing Ying Huan was on the roof, looking at the men on the field.

Jin Chuqing: He is Chong Xun, the young man who rescued the deceased old man in the woods.

After the two tried a few tricks, the battle officially started.

Don't look at Wan Chao who doesn't play around four or six at ordinary times, but she is actually quite strong. In terms of talent and savvy, Ying Huan is not as good as her.It's just that she smiles all day long and leaves room for everything, which always makes people feel less interesting.

You come and go, and the insects slowly fall to the wind.

A quarter of an hour later the announcer of the Heroes' Council announced the result of the duel.

Chong Xun Wanchao ended.

-

In mid-October, the hero meeting was coming to an end, and Yang Xi narrowly defeated Gong Yeqian on this day.

Jin Chuqing and Wan Chao chatted one after another, and Wan Chao asked Jin Chuqing where he planned to go after the hero meeting.

Jin Chuqing said that it should be the state of Zhouqu.

"Zhouqu Country? What are you doing there?"

"Look at the exotic scenery."

"The state of Zhouqu is in turmoil right now. If Brother Rong wants to travel, he might as well go to the state of Wu. The state of Wu is picturesque and a state of etiquette."

"Uzbekistan is not bad, and I will visit it when I have time."

"Brother Rong is going to search all over the world?"

"Not necessarily." Just a whim.

"..."

The two talked and saw someone putting up sky lanterns not far away, and Wan Chao wondered why someone put up lanterns this day.

Jin Chuqing saw that she was in high spirits, and asked if she wanted to come closer and look at the bridge ahead.

"Well, go have a look."

The two came to the front, and it was a man and a woman who put up the lanterns, and there were paper money sprinkled beside them, which seemed to express their condolences.The man puts a lamp by the lake, and the woman looks indifferent, motionless, and her eyes are full of sadness.

The woman is the old man's daughter. 20 days ago, her relative Fei Ge sent a letter to her husband's house saying that the old man died and her brother escaped from prison.

She thought that she would not be sad, she thought that her hatred for him would not be changed by the years, but when she came back and saw no one but a deserted grave, her heart was still empty.

The man patted the woman on the shoulder, and the woman burst into tears.It's not regret, it's not guilt. He should be ashamed of her and her mother.

She didn't know why she was crying.

A hundred or so lanterns were floating in the sky, and passers-by sighed: This person needs to accumulate virtue when he is young, or he will suffer retribution when he is old.

Jin Chuqing Wanchao quietly looked at the couple on the bridge.

The dead are long gone, and the living are as good as their husbands.

That night, there was a heavy snowfall in Jinnan City.

Feihua woke up Jin Chuqing who was sleeping, and after he got up and found that it was the first snow, he lay back on the bed again.

At noon, Jin Chuqing was woken up by Ying Huan, and when she went out, the snow was already deep.

Last night Ying Huan got drunk in the tavern, Jin Chuqing dragged Ying Huan back to the inn.

"I drank like that last night and woke up earlier than you, are you embarrassed?"

"You drank like that last night, don't thank me for bringing you back, are you sorry?"

"Who knows if you brought me back, I don't remember."

"Who knows if you got up earlier than me, I don't remember."

"You are getting better and better at telling nonsense with your eyes open."

"Catch up with you, do you have a sense of crisis?"

The two walked downstairs while talking, there was snow on the roof that was about to fall, Jin Chuqing found that when he walked to the other side, Ying Huan, who was distracted, was smashed right on.

Jin Chuqing: "Did you pick up the title of good leader from the trash?"

Ying Huan scolded.

The excitement of last night seemed like a big dream, but today the street has become deserted.In the alley, there are children making snowmen and having snowball fights. Occasionally, the snowball fighters deliberately smash the snowmen to annoy the snowmen and attract them to join the snowball fight.

Jin Chuqing Ying Huan came to Qingpingyuan, the host of the Hero Club where Wan Chao lived, and all the duels were canceled because of the heavy snow. When she arrived in the backyard, Wan Chao was building a small house with snow.

Wan Chao waved: "Brother Rong."

Ying Huan: "Don't talk about Brother Rong all day long, I'm with you, brother."

"Brother, it's so early, you got up before it got dark."

"..."

"I came here to say goodbye," Jin Chuqing said.

A hole was poked in Wan Chao's igloo.

"Huh?" Ying Huan asked.

Wan Chao: "...why so sudden?"

Jin Chuqing bent down to fill up the hole in the igloo with snow: "I've been here for more than a month, and you two have seen the duel. It's time for the next step."

"What's the next step?" Ying Huan asked.

"Look around."

"Is this considered a plan?"

Ying Huan: "When is the departure?"

"Since it's farewell, of course it's now."
