The two of them traveled for several more days and came to a town called Shiyang in Dongchuan.

In front of a house, someone knocked on the door.A thin old man with gray beard and hair came out of his head, looked coldly at a man and a woman outside the door, and asked, "Who are the little ones looking for?"

Just now Xiao Feng heard this person came to open the door with light steps, and saw that his eyes were slightly closed, he was obviously a martial arts practitioner, he cupped his fists and said, "Excuse me, old man, is the owner's surname Ling?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "There is no one with the surname Ling here, you have found the wrong one, go somewhere else." As he said that, he wanted to close the door, but Ye Nian supported him with his hand, and asked, "Is that the surname 'Xing'?"

The old man paused, looked at her and said, "What's the surname 'Xing'?"

Ye Nian smiled and said, "Isn't Senior Xingmu the old man? Why do you have to ask this junior about your surname?"

The old man looked her up and down, then glanced at Xiao Feng, opened the door, "You two come in with me."

Both of them were a little surprised, looked at each other, followed him in, and sat down in the hall.

The living room was furnished simply, with only a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on it, and rows of wooden bookshelves against the wall. Ye Nian looked around, and Xiao Feng asked the man directly, "Old man, may I know a senior man surnamed Ling?" ?”

The old man narrowed his eyes and shook his head, "I don't know."

Xiao Feng: "He once had a famous apprentice named Xiao Yuanshan."

The old man took a sip of tea without raising his head, "I've never heard of it."

Seeing his casual and perfunctory look, Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Senior, since he didn't intend to answer, why did you let us in to talk?"

The old man: "So that you can finish the question once, and I can finish the answer once, so don't knock on the door of my husband's house next time."

Xiao Feng was startled, Ye Nian also turned his gaze over, smiled, "This place is not bad, senior lives here but it's very clean?" Seeing the other party squinting over, he said, "If so, then we should first I'm sorry, it's a helpless act to disturb you in the future, and I hope seniors can forgive me."

The old man glared at her and said, "You girl, are you threatening the old man?"

"Don't dare." Ye Nian said, "But since we came here from a long distance and asked questions, we naturally want to get answers, otherwise, how can we leave so easily." After speaking, he looked at Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng agreed and smiled, Standing up, he said, "Senior, since that's the case, we will take our leave today."

"Wait." The old man stopped the two of them, "If you don't get an answer, you won't leave willingly, will you?"

Xiao Feng: "That's natural."

The old man asked again, "What do you want to find that man for?"

Xiao Feng was overjoyed when he heard his words loosen up, and immediately made his intention clear.With his hands behind his back, the old man walked around the hall twice, and said to the two of them, "If you want to ask me questions, you must follow my rules. I will tell you three things. If you can do it, I will tell you the truth. , otherwise stay away from this place and don’t disturb my purity.”

Xiao Feng: "If senior casually said three impossible things, what's the difference between driving us away and driving us away?"

"Do you think this old man is that kind of rascal?" The old man raised his white eyebrows and asked impatiently, "Are you listening or not?"

Xiao Feng thought to himself that this old man has a weird temper, these three things will definitely not be easy to handle, but he will never give up, he raised his head and said, "Senior, please tell me."

The old man looked at Ye Nian, "You just said that this place is clean, that's good, but sometimes it's a bit deserted. There is an old Wu family's house in Qingshi Lane in the southwest of the town. It is prosperous when you go out, and it is quiet when you go in. I am very happy. I like it, the first thing is to ask you to get me the title deed of that house." Then he said to Xiao Feng, "This girl can only handle this matter, you stay here, don't follow her."

Before Xiao Feng could reply, seeing Ye Nian already agreed, he went over and whispered to her, "Xiao Nian, this matter may not be easy to handle." He thought that the old man was in a dilemma, this land deed may not be something that can be bought with money , not letting him go with them must be to prevent them from using any tough measures.

Ye Nian smiled, "It's okay, I'll figure it out."

The old man watched from the side, shook his head and said, "A big man is not as easy as a woman." Looking at the sky, he urged, "Go quickly, you can only count it before dark."

Xiao Feng frowned slightly, "It's almost noon now, how many hours will it be until dark? Are you making things difficult on purpose?"

The old man said coolly, "It's all up to you whether you go or not."

Ye Nian stopped Xiao Feng and said, "Brother Xiao, it's useless to talk too much, I will definitely come back before dark, don't worry."

Seeing her insistence, Xiao Feng had no choice but to say, "Success or failure is the second, you have to be more careful."

Ye Nian responded, turned and walked out the door.

A few hours passed quickly, Xiao Feng saw that the sky was dark, he got up and walked towards the hall door, looking out.Hearing the old man say slowly, "Young man, please hold your breath, don't walk around, it makes me dizzy." Looking back, seeing him resting his eyes on the recliner, he thought to himself that I had only walked two steps, and you closed your eyes again, Where is the impact?Thinking this way, he didn't bother to talk to him, and suddenly heard the movement outside the door, but it was Ye Nian who came back, so he couldn't help but let go of most of his heart.

After Ye Nian came in, he smiled at him, walked up to the old man, took something out of his sleeve and put it on the table, saying, "This is the land deed of the Wu residence, please verify it, senior."

Xiao Feng walked to her side and said happily, "You really got it."

The corners of Ye Nian's mouth curved slightly, "I told you to rest assured."

The old man opened his eyelids, glanced at her, stretched out his hand to take the title deed, and asked, "What method did you use to get this title deed?"

Ye Nian: "Of course it was bought with silver."

The old man snorted and said, "Don't lie to me. Old man Wu regards the ancestral house as important as his life. Anyone who wants to buy his house will be kicked out by him. How can he sell it to you so easily?"

"Senior, do you think I snatched him with a knife around his neck?" Ye Nian sneered slightly, then took out another thin piece of paper and put it on the table, "This is the deed, with the owner's signature on it, senior You can see for yourself."

The old man only glanced at it, and didn't go to take it. He said to her, "This is the first thing you've done. Now tell me, how did you get the deed and land deed?"

Ye Nian's expression softened, and he said, "The old man surnamed Wu is an honest and responsible person, but he has an unfilial grandson who likes to hang out in the flower streets and gambling alleys. This matter is known to everyone in the Wu family, so it is not difficult to inquire about it. The debt owed by that person It is enough to buy ten of his ancestral houses, and I will pay off all of them for him, but for him, how can he not agree to such a cheap deal?"

The old man: "Then old man Wu can also agree?"

Ye Nian remembered how the old man surnamed Wu burst into tears when he took out the house deed and the land deed to her. It is possible to lose one or two arms, no matter how important Mr. Wu is to his ancestral house, it is impossible for him to sit back and watch his grandson suffer?"

The old man looked at her for a while, "What did you do to that kid?"

Ye Nian shook his head and said, "What can I do to him? It's just to give him a suggestion when he is cornered by his creditors."

The old man saw that her face was still immature, but when she said this, her expression was neither cruel nor shameful, very calm, he couldn't help but sneered and said, "It's a good trick, but the old man's eyes are dumb." Throwing the land deed in his hand back on the table, Said, "Who really cares about that broken house, return all these useless things."

Ye Nian was very surprised, and put the deed away again.Xiao Feng felt that he was purely entertaining the two of them, he was angry and said in a suppressed way, "Senior can talk about the second thing now."

The old man got up and smoothed the folds of his clothes, "I'm going out to relax now, I'll tell you when I think of something." After speaking a few steps, he walked out the door, and his figure was very fast and elegant.

Ye Nian thought to himself that the old man didn't want to run away, he just wanted to ask Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng had already grabbed her and chased her out.

After a cup of tea, the three of them arrived at the foot of a mountain.At this time, the sky was already dark, only a few scattered night stars illuminated it, and the wind was blowing all over the fields, making it slightly chilly.

The old man turned around to look at Xiao Feng, saw that his breath was steady, and he was able to hold a single person without compromising himself, he snorted, "The lightness kung fu is pretty good, do you dare to compare with me?"

Xiao Feng: "Senior, what do you compare yourself to?"

The old man pointed to the mountain peak in front of him, "Let's try to go up and down the mountain, who will take the shorter time. If you can beat me, this second thing will be considered as you have done."

Xiao Feng raised his head and looked at the towering mountain in front of him, his eyes darkened, and he said loudly, "Okay, I will compete with you, if I win by luck, I hope senior can keep his word."

"What I said will naturally count." The old man seemed displeased, and glanced at Ye Nian, "Do you still have this girl?"

Ye Nian heard the words and said, "Then I can't, if brother Xiao takes me, wouldn't he belittle you, senior?"

The old man laughed, "You're really cute."

Xiao Feng understood what she meant, and said apologetically, "Xiao Nian, I will wrong you to wait here for me."

Ye Nian smiled, squeezed his palm lightly, approached him and said in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, you need to be careful to guard against this person on the road."

A soft smile appeared in Xiao Feng's eyes, and he nodded.

Seeing the figures of the two disappearing at the corner of the mountain road, Ye Nian thought to himself that the old man Xingmu had a weird temper, and he wondered if he would finally inform Father Xiao of the whereabouts of his master as promised.Speaking of courtesy first, soldiers later, if he insists on not saying it, it is no wonder that she and Xiao Feng used some tough methods, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he stopped thinking about it at the moment, and found a place in the lee to rest for a while.

On the mountain path, two ghostly figures flitted through the forest.The old man suddenly slapped a palm to the side, Xiao Feng dodged it sideways, frowned and said, "What do you mean, senior?" hand, looked at him coldly and said, "Why didn't you fight back?"

Although Xiao Feng felt that his attack was sudden and seemed suspicious of a sneak attack, there was no killing intent in the moves, and because he wanted something from him, he only accepted the move and did not return the move, he said, "I always want to find out the reason, Otherwise, wouldn't this fight be inexplicable?"

The old man snorted, "Let me ask you, you are obviously not using the martial arts methods of my sect, why did you lie that your father is that person's apprentice?"

Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment, he thought to himself that my father is that person's apprentice, but I am not, why should I use his martial arts?He also thought about what this person said about "the number of martial arts in my sect", could it be that he and his father's benefactor are brothers of the same sect?Judging by his age, it seems possible.Thinking about this, he replied, "Senior Ling is indeed my father's mentor, but my martial arts is not taught by my father, so it is naturally different."

The old man glared at him and said, "If what you said is true, your father should know how profound and profound the kung fu in my sect is, so why didn't he teach you himself, and let you learn other simple martial arts? I see you clearly Just lying!"

Xiao Feng was amused and annoyed when he heard the words, he didn't want to explain his past experience to him, he just said, "It is true that I joined another enlightened teacher when I was a child, and I have never acquired noble martial arts, if my senior doesn't believe me, I have no choice. Besides, martial arts in the world have their own strengths and weaknesses, The other sects are not all superficial martial arts either."

The old man laughed "hehe" twice, and said, "I'm here to test your qualifications to say such things." With a movement of his body, a big fist hit him in the face.

Xiao Feng's previous moves were still mainly defensive, the old man slashed with his palm, he dodged it, and chopped on the tree on his left side, only heard the crackling sound, the tree as thick as a bowl cut across the middle, slowly Fall backward.Seeing him pestering endlessly, Xiao Feng could go on like this endlessly, his thick black eyebrows sank slightly, he suddenly stopped his figure, with his toes on the ground, he jumped up with air, and struck at him with a sharp punch that made the sound of piercing through the air .

Turning from defense to offense, Xiao Feng's momentum suddenly changed.The old man laughed and said, "It should have been like this!" He went up to meet him.

The two exchanged dozens of moves, the old man slashed Xiao Feng's neck horizontally with his palm, the opponent's punch hit his chest before he even touched it, but he stopped suddenly, the chest was slightly stagnant due to the strong wind, thinking that if the punch was for real, Not to mention serious injuries, several bones in his chest were bound to be broken.
