A knife in love

Chapter 1254

Murong Danyan was horrified and had nothing to say for a while.After a long while, she whispered: "Brother Li, it seems that this young man came to Wang's Village with hidden martial arts, could it be that he wanted to embarrass Wang Yuanwai and Sister Xiaoyu?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said: "It's the first time I've met this young man. I can't figure out whether he is good or evil. But just now I saw that this young man dared to take responsibility, and he didn't seem like a villain. people."

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "But although Dongliao County is an important border town, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Dongyi has always been friendly with Daming, and has not used weapons for more than a hundred years. Therefore Although Dongliao County is the throat of Dongyi leading to Liaoyang Mansion, it is not a famous city outside the pass. There are few people inside and outside the city, and the people's life is difficult. So many martial arts masters appear in Dongliao County. Isn't it strange? ?”

When Murong Danyan heard what Li Qiufeng said, he felt complacent again, and said, "Brother Li, do you think I am one of the 'martial arts masters' you mentioned?"

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly, nodded, and said: "Naturally. I haven't seen you for a few months, and Miss Murong has made great progress in martial arts. After going back and forth to Murong Villa, Mr. Murong and Brother Murong gave more pointers, which made Miss Murong even more powerful in fist, foot and sword."

Murong Danyan shook his head and said: "After my brother took me back, he was scolded by my mother for not taking good care of me. Then he was reprimanded by my father and punished him to face the wall and think three times. Month. I saw him extremely depressed, with a serious face all day long, so I didn't dare to talk to him after the injury was healed. My father is busy healing my injury, how can he be in the mood to teach me martial arts? My great progress in martial arts has nothing to do with my brother and father."

Li Qiufeng praised Murong Danyan a few words, but he didn't intend to flatter him.Earlier, Murong Danyan sneaked out of Murong Villa. Although his swordsmanship is not weak, his internal strength is mediocre.Not to mention compared with Li Qiufeng, Liu Shengzongyan, Tang He and other great masters, even compared with Yu Changyuan, He Yi and others in Wuhu Villa, they are quite inferior.Her limited internal strength is certainly one of the reasons why she lost to Yu Changyuan and others, but the swordsmanship taught by Murong Qiushui is so powerful, these exquisite sword moves alone are enough to make up for her lack of internal strength.Murong Danyan suffered losses many times, and later was assassinated by Liu Sheng's family's killers, and almost died, because her experience in the world was too little.Although after she got acquainted with Li Qiufeng, she experienced many fierce battles in the Imperial Tomb, Yong'an City, Hutou Rock, etc., which greatly increased her experience and knowledge.It's just that there are so many things going on every day, there is no time to calm down and meditate, and the martial arts has not improved much.When Murong Danqing sent her back to Murong Villa, she was unconscious at first, but it was like a dream in her head, and all the things she experienced kept reappearing.Before she knew it, the scene of fighting Yu Changyuan, Xu Yingyang and others was deeply imprinted in her mind, which greatly helped her improve her martial arts.Later, the genius doctor Lan Qixing rescued Murong Danyan. She was on the sickbed, recalling the experiences of the past few months, it was as if she had been completely reborn, and she was no longer the ignorant girl when she first entered the world.This time he re-entered the rivers and lakes and fought against Xiao Dong on Motian Ridge.If it was Murong Danyan from half a year ago, he would definitely be defeated by Xiao Dong's sword.It's just that although Murong Danyan at this time has not made much progress in internal strength cultivation and fist, foot and sword skills, but in terms of experience in the world and changes in the face of the enemy, he is no longer Wuxia Amon.So she fought fiercely with Xiao Dong for a long time but did not lose the wind, which surprised Li Qiufeng.

The two talked and talked, and they arrived in front of the king's mansion in a short time.Wang Yuanwai and Wang Xiaoyu stopped, and entered the yard together with Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan.

Murong Danyan has lived in Wang's house for several days, but it is the first time for Li Qiufeng to come here.Seen from the outside, the houses of the Wang family are no different from the houses of ordinary people in the Wang family village. The courtyard walls and houses are a bit low, not as tall as the houses of the gentry and wealthy households in the Central Plains.It was only after entering the courtyard that Li Qiufeng realized that the Wang family was extremely large.A single front yard is enough to accommodate a thousand people.On the opposite side of the gate are five main rooms with carved beams and painted buildings, which are very majestic.A row of wing rooms were built on both sides close to the courtyard wall, with black tiles and white walls, which looked quite solemn.

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan walked down the stone steps with the father and daughter of the Wang family. When he entered the yard, he felt a little uneasy.The yard is not only spacious, but also extremely simple.Except for the main house and the wing rooms on both sides, there is not even a tree.Walking into the courtyard, there seemed to be an invisible force rushing towards him, and he felt like walking on the edge of a cliff.

Li Qiufeng sneaked a peek around as he walked, thinking to himself, when he was on duty in Jinyiwei, when he walked past the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he had this feeling of being oppressed.Naturally, the scale of the Wang family compound cannot be compared with the imperial palace, but in terms of feeling, it is slightly similar.

Before everyone reached the main room, Wang Yuanwai stopped and asked Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to go first.Li Qiufeng hastily gave way, and finally Wang Yuanwai walked in front, and Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, and Wang Xiaoyu walked up the stone steps side by side.It's just that when Li Qiufeng walked up the stone steps, he inadvertently turned his head and glanced behind him, his heart moved, and he understood many things in an instant.

Since he entered the gate, he was surprised that the house of the Wang family was completely different from what he saw from the outside.Seeing the unevenness of the courtyard and the stone steps at this time, he realized that the Wang family courtyard was more than five feet lower than the road outside the door.As a result, both the main house and the side rooms in the courtyard sank five feet along with the courtyard.Walking outside the door, naturally you can't see the situation in the courtyard.

Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Liaodong and the Central Plains are separated by the Great Wall pass, the folk customs are very different, even the houses of rich families are far from each other.Houses in the capital are large in scale, and the cornices of the roof must be exposed to the courtyard walls, so that the owner appears to be wealthy.If the yard is dug lower than the road outside the door, people will definitely laugh at it.

Everyone walked up the stone steps to the front of the main room.A servant had already opened the door and invited everyone in.After crossing the threshold, it turned out to be a huge hall.On the white wall in the middle is a picture of walking in the autumn moon at night, and a long sandalwood table is placed close to the wall, with a chair on each side.Other than that, there was nothing in the hall, making it even more empty.

After everyone entered the main room, several servants moved out four chairs from the inner hall on the right, and placed them on the left and right in front of the long sandalwood table.Wang Yuanwai invited Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to sit down, and ordered his servants to prepare tea, then he said to Li Qiufeng: "Mr. Zhu just said that he makes a living by selling cloth. I wonder where you get rich?"

Li Qiufeng had already expected that Wang Yuanwai would ask such a question, so he said the set of arguments he had thought up.When Wang Yuanwai heard that Li Qiufeng was from Shu, he was very interested and asked about the customs of Shu.Li Qiufeng grew up in Shu, and lived in seclusion with his master in Mount Qingcheng for the past six months, so he is very familiar with Shu.Therefore, Li Qiufeng answered the questions Wang Yuanwai asked fluently.The two talked about the big and small things related to the cloth business.These days, Li Qiufeng chatted with Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others every day, and knew a lot about the cloth business.At this time, learning and selling now, he actually spoke clearly and logically.Wang Yuanwai was greatly impressed by the guests and kept nodding his head.Sitting on the side, Murong Danyan was very curious, thinking to himself, why haven't you seen him for more than half a year, brother Li is so proficient in business?Could it be that he was really selling cloth in Shu, and making money in business?

I saw Wang Yuanwai stroking his beard and smiling: "Mr. Zhu has such insight at a young age, which makes Wang feel extremely ashamed. The people in the Central Plains are indeed completely different from our Dongliao County and other despicable places. If there is a chance in the future , Wang also thought of taking a trip in the middle of Sichuan, and I hope that Mr. Zhu will not hesitate to give you some advice when he comes to visit."

Li Qiufeng said: "Yuanwai was joking. When I first arrived in Dongliao County, I heard about Wang Yuanwai's name. When I saw him today, he was indeed a great man who is willing to do good and good deeds. I only have to respect him. If Wang Yuanwai goes to Shu in the future In the middle, I will definitely welcome you and listen to the advice of the members."

The two exchanged a few polite words.A servant woman came in respectfully, and said to the king: "The food and wine are ready. May I ask the master to eat in the hall, or in the garden at the back garden?"

Before Wang Yuanwai could answer, Wang Xiaoyu rushed to say: "Let's go to the Wanghua Pavilion. Sitting in this room is stuffy, and eating is extremely boring."

The servant woman agreed, but did not leave, still bowed and stood aside.Until Wang Yuanwai nodded and said: "Just follow the order of the eldest lady, put the wine and vegetables in the Wanghua Pavilion." Then the maid said "Yes" and quietly left the main room.
