In the end, the young man in brown went into the mansion to drink tea.

When they walked in, Lu Xun, who had been sitting in the courtyard, saw Wu Xun stand up abruptly. After heaving a sigh of relief, he quickly stepped forward and groped Wu Xun's body until Wu Xun's ears turned red: "Yes!" ,have a guest."

"Not hurt?"

"No, no." Wu Xun replied confidently, "Who am I? I got them back after they lost their way outside the city."

After confirming that Wu Xun was not injured, Lu Xun looked at Xu Zixiu and the young man in brown: "This is it?"

"He is the young master of the Brown Clothes Sect." Wu Xun replied.

"Chen Jinyi, I have nothing to do with the Brown Clothes Sect." The young man in brown clothes said coldly.

After Wu Xun's explanation, Lu Xun realized that this was the young man who fought Wu Xun in the arena that day, and then they all moved to the flower hall, where Ning Bo had already prepared a table of wine and food.

"Are the doormen of the brown clothes door all brown clothes?"

Hearing Lu Xi's question, Chen Jinyi pursed his lips and said, "Yes, everyone in brown clothes is wearing brown clothes. Has Liu Shao met these people?"

The sentence "these people" has clearly drawn the boundary between him and the brown clothing door, and Wu Xun quietly winked at Lu Xie, which meant that he knew what was going on.

Lu Xi understood and nodded, "Well, a few men in brown surrounded me in the teahouse before."

Chen Jinyi looked up at Lu Xi for a while: "Six young masters should know some martial arts, right?"

"Know a thing or two."

"It's not as simple as knowing a thing or two to be targeted by people from the Brown Clothes Sect." Chen Jinyi coughed twice again, "The master of the Brown Clothes Sect is my master, who passed away half a year ago. The position has been vacant until now. My uncle said that my master left a last word before he died, and whoever wins the first prize in the martial arts will win the position of sect master."

"I thought I was the only one participating in the martial arts within the Brown Clothes Sect..." Chen Jinyi laughed bitterly, "Later I found out that my uncle had an illegitimate son who had been raised in the sect as a disciple. The current Young Sect Master I’m afraid it’s already him. Those people you saw were my uncle’s lackeys, and they only surrounded you because they thought you might be a potential threat to the martial arts.”

Lu Xi pondered for a moment, although it made sense, he always felt that there was still something wrong.

Why does the future sect of a Jianghu sect mainly test for the number one scholar in martial arts?This is a very strange thing. If you pass the exam, will you go back to be the head of the sect or be an official in the court?Another point is that candidates participating in martial arts are like crucian carp crossing the river, and the encirclement of Brown Clothes Gate seems particularly unnecessary.

Lu Xi expressed his doubts, and Chen Jinyi was also stunned. He put down the cake he was holding, and wrinkled his eyebrows to ponder.

"Are you the same as me? Have you been tricked?" Xu Zixiu picked up some shredded potatoes for Chen Jinyi, "Eat it, think about it when you're full, and you'll get used to being calculated."

In order to comfort Chen Jinyi, Xu Zixiu told most of his tragic past, but with a long memory he concealed Yu Pei and his own life experience.Chen Jinyi could not help but twitch the corners of his mouth as he listened to the chant in his ears. Are all scholars so noisy?

But when Xu Zixiu mentioned Tongyuan Pawnshop, Chen Jinyi suddenly thought of something: "You mean, those local ruffians are bothering you today because you have something that Tongyuan Pawnshop wants?"

"Well, it should be, otherwise there would be such a coincidence."

Chen Jinyi stretched out his hand to untie his treasure bag, poked inside, and took out a wooden sign: "Is this Tongyuan pawn shop?"

The name of Tongyuan Pawnshop was engraved on the wooden sign, Xu Zixiu nodded: "Well, it's the same word."

Chen Jinyi was a little confused, and he didn't speak until everyone had finished eating, "Maybe I was wrong just now. Those people surrounded you probably not because they thought you were an examinee, but because they thought you were not an examinee."

Even Lu Xi didn't understand this sentence.

"You just said that Tongyuan Pawnshop sent people to look for things, and I just remembered that my uncle also went to Tongyuan Pawnshop, and then he mentioned it to me. He said that the owner of Tongyuan Pawnshop has good hands and eyes, and he can arrange Go to the imperial court's line, but as a transaction condition, he will help Tongyuan Pawn Shop find some people."

"Who are you looking for?"

"Find some people who seem to be able to bluff people, but are not candidates themselves, both civil and military."

Lu Xi: "..." So he looks like he can bluff people?Or, just bluffing?

……

After dinner, Chen Jinyi picked up his knife and thought that he should be able to leave this time, but Xu Zixiu still refused.

"what happened again?"

"Don't you think Tongyuan Pawnshop is definitely planning something?"

"Well, that's true." Chen Jinyi nodded, "My uncle is a person who has no money and can't afford it early. Tongyuan pawn shop must have paid a certain price to hire him, and the picture must be far more than asking my uncle. price tag."

"Well, what you said makes sense." Xu Zixiu nodded his head, "Then you can't leave."

"Why?" Chen Jinyi looked down at Xu Zixiu and paused every word. He wanted to see what other reasons this little scholar could come up with.

"The Tongyuan pawnshop found your uncle, and then I was targeted by the Tongyuan pawnshop. Maybe it was because your uncle sold my news to the Tongyuan pawnshop. You have a debtor and a debtor. Can you not protect me?" What if they touch my room in the middle of the night?" Xu Zixiu chattered, "What if they sell me to that Nanfeng Hall?"

The veins on Chen Jinyi's forehead were throbbing. After Xu Zixiu mentioned his tenth possible misfortune, he finally couldn't help it: "Shut up!"

"So you plan to stay?"

Chen Jinyi: "..." It's said that a scholar meets a soldier, and he can't explain why, but why does he think that he is the one who can't explain why?

Xu Zixiu, who managed to keep Chen Jinyi behind, quietly gave a thumbs up to the roof of the main house.

Wu Xun, who was sitting on the roof, naturally saw it too, and gave Xu Zixiu a thumbs up, then turned back and put his hands on the window frame, and entered the room through the window.

Lu Xun in the room was thinking about a series of things that happened in the past few days, when he saw Wu Xun coming in, he smiled: "Did you have a good time today?"

"Happy!" Wu Xun sat across from Lu Xun, his eyes sparkling, "Let me tell you, that Tongyuan pawnshop is not easy."

"Have you found anything?"

Wu Xun picked up the tea in Lu Xi's hand and drank it down, cleared his throat: "According to our plan, shouldn't it be enough to let the pawnshop know that someone knows about the jade pendant?" At that time, I happened to see the shopkeeper's face."

"Yes, I haven't asked you what happened? Why were you chased out of the city?"

This was their plan. Wu Xun did not accidentally touch the tile, but did it on purpose, in order to let the pawnshop realize that someone else might know about the jade pendant.If the people in the pawn shop were really ulterior motives, they would most likely not wait for Xu Zixiu to make a decision on whether to become a jade pendant, but choose to act first.That's why, Xu Zixiu deliberately chose a small path, in order to attract the pawnshop's hands.Unexpectedly, Chen Jinyi popped up halfway and took the job of the secret guard.

"Because there are four shadow masters in the pawnshop." Wu Xun seemed very interested. He hadn't met an evenly matched opponent for a long time after he came to the capital. their history."

"Oh?"

"They are using the exercises of the Diancang Sect. I once compared lightness kung fu with the senior brothers of the Diancang Sect. Although the four of them deliberately concealed their physical skills, when I led them around to the bamboo forest outside the city, some people still showed their strength." There is a flaw."

"Dian Cang School..." Lu Xi frowned, "Dian Cang School is a well-known and decent school, how could it get involved with this kind of thing."

"There are scum in a decent family, right?" Wu Xun patted his chest, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything in the Jianghu."

Lu Xi laughed: "Then leave it to me?"

Wu Xun scratched his chin: "You can do whatever you want." He looked up at the roof, then lowered his head and added, "I'm also very useful, I'm better than those four people, I'm better than a snitch Lightness kung fu is also powerful."

"Why compare yourself to a thief?" Lu Xi shook his head helplessly, "Can't you think of a better metaphor?"

At this moment, An Jiu, who was squatting on the roof, felt his nose was a little itchy, so he pinched it quickly. Was someone talking ill of him?

And An Yi, who was lying on the beam and pretending to sleep with his arms folded, slightly raised the corners of his mouth. Sure enough, Wu Xun was not ignorant of their existence.He originally thought that Wu Xun might be better at boxing and kicking, but today he could clearly see the chase on the roof of the Tongyuan pawnshop. Wu Xun's lightness kung fu is not so good.Even he might not be able to hide from Wu Xun's ears, let alone with An Jiu's half-baked skills, Wu Xun should have known their existence long ago.

Thinking about it this way, An Yi can be regarded as knowing why these two people are so young, they are both first-class masters pretending to be confused.

"One more thing, the shopkeeper, I

Feel a little familiar. When Wu Xun said this, his smile rarely disappeared, and he said solemnly, "But I suspect that I was wrong. It stands to reason that the person should have died a long time ago. "

"Tell me first, if you are wrong, you are wrong."

"The shopkeeper of the pawn shop looks very similar to a person. People in the Jianghu say that he has the ability to turn stones into gold. No matter what, that person can make exactly the same one by one. Because he ranks seventh in the sect. , so people in Jianghu call him the Seventh Ghost Hand. But my master said that the Seventh Ghost Hand is a charlatan who was born as a fake antique." Wu Xun pursed his lips, "The Seventh Ghost Hand was later killed by the leader of the martial arts alliance, Shi Haotian. Because he killed the deputy hall master of Duobao Hall."

There are many treasure halls in the building full of gold and jade, and it is hidden in the rare buildings in the rivers and lakes.

Even though Lu Xi didn't know much about Jianghu affairs, he had heard this sentence before.Moreover, the temples and the rivers and lakes are not distinct. If you really want to count, the various sects and courts are always inextricably linked, especially places like Duobaotang, which do not have any influence, have always had a good relationship with the court.

Leaving aside the question of why Ghost Hand Lao Qi wanted to kill the deputy head of Duobao Hall, what Lu Xi was more concerned about was why there were so many ghosts and monsters hiding in a small Tongyuan pawnshop who dared not show their true colors to others? !
