Sword from Hengshan

Chapter 25: Dragon and Phoenix among men
Qiu Guangjun's eyes changed again and again when he looked at Zhao Rong.

At first, he was interested in Mr. Liu Sanye who was behind Zhao Rong. He would never have imagined that the young man could have such an artistic career.

Given time, will it be worth it?
The incident happened suddenly. Qiu Guangjun was unprepared. He could only thank him profusely while his brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to have a good relationship with him.

Despite the young man's humble and polite appearance, he seems to be more difficult to deal with than Mr. Liu Sanye.

Lao Qiu said, I am quite wealthy.

He kept showing his kindness, but Zhao Rong always smiled slightly and advised: "It's a small effort, don't take it personally."

His lack of food and salt made Lao Qiu feel melancholy.

Give me a chance.
At such a young age, how can you be on guard against me?
Does Mr. Qiu look like a bad guy?

"Senior Brother Zhao."

Qiu Mengyin's senior brother's name was very smooth at this moment, and she guessed that even if she called him "Uncle Zhao", it wouldn't be difficult to pronounce it.

She took out the colorful embroidered brocade handkerchief she had held in her hand for a long time from her sleeve, and finally found an opportunity to hand it over.

Then he hinted at the corner of Zhao Rong's mouth.

"Thank you."

"It's Meng Yin who wants to thank senior brother for saving his life." She stared at the boy with her beautiful eyes, with her own filter.

Zhao Rong wiped away all the blood stains from his mouth and neck. The handkerchief originally had a faint scent of his daughter's house, but now it was stained with the smell of blood. He put the dirty handkerchief into his arms and gave the girl peace of mind. The look in his eyes indicated that his elder brother was okay.

Miss Qiu stared at his chest and hesitated to speak. She didn't say anything. She only said a thank you and then quietly retreated behind Qiu Guangjun and looked at him secretly.

Lao Qiu glanced at his daughter.

Meng Yin was not usually like this, and was very cold towards the young people in Longquan.

As an old Jianghu, he naturally understands everything instantly.

Although he thought Meng Yin had good vision and was 100% satisfied with her, he had a hunch.
This guy doesn't seem to be easy to get along with.

"Brother Rong, how are you injured?" Lu Gui spoke with concern.

"Fortunately, there are many of us, so you can cover up and force him to withdraw his palm. Now I don't suffer a big loss. I just feel that my blood is surging and my whole body is hot. The Yellow River Ancestor's inner strength is really fierce, and I am far inferior to him in terms of background. If you continue to use your inner strength, you will be defeated immediately.”

"Eh!" Lu Gui shook his head. "Why sigh? The Yellow River Patriarch is well-known in the Central Plains and the Qi and Lu regions. He is several dozen years older than you. If we were the same age, I don't think he would be able to fight you."

"Hahaha, Brother Lu praises me too much."

"What's the point of exalting? Mr. Lu likes to tell the truth."

Lu Gui made arrangements, "The sun is strong at noon, which will make you feel dry. You'd better meditate first to calm down, regulate blood and regulate qi. Then we will return to the escort office to talk to the escort about this matter."

Zhao Rong nodded slightly and heard Lu Gui whisper:
"The Qiu family's sword-making villa is developing very fast. Don't look at their current situation, but they have hundreds of disciples and are good at forging weapons. They are one of the first-class forces in Longquan. Brother Rong has been very kind to the Qiu family, and they Show your kindness, you don’t have to be too resistant.”

"Old Lu, let me say something unpleasant. You have a weak background. Even if you join the Hengshan Sect, you will be alone for a short time. The Third Master is simple and elegant, and his greatest hobby is the music of the zither and flute."

“In the end, you still have to rely on yourself.”

"Brother Lu, I understand."

Zhao Rong thought about Lao Lu's words and glanced in Lao Qiu's direction.

The Qiu family was settling the riot at the inn, and the ancestor of the Yellow River ran away. The envoys at the inn could only ask the Qiu family for payment, regardless of the century-old ginseng they lost.

The Qiu family was doing serious business in Longquan, and there was no need to offend the officials for a small amount of money. He also sent people to help him pick up the tea table and benches.

Zhao Rong sat on the floor and reflected on his post-war experience with the old man.

The opponent was fighting left and right in the crowd, facing the weapons of more than a dozen people and making flexible use of the environment. This kind of adaptability and changeable moves were something Zhao Rong could not match.

However, he was excited by the efficacy of Yi Jin Jing and Marrow Cleansing Jing.

Being able to hold hands with the ancestor of the Yellow River, even if a sudden attack is disgraceful, but how long has he been practicing?

Zhao Rong sat cross-legged, holding his knees with both hands, slowly lowering his upper eyelids and gently closing them with his lower eyelids.

Relying on the cool air of the pendant, I instantly calmed down.

Imagine that the left eye is the sun, the right eye is the moon, and the xuanguan points in both eyes are stars. They radiate light, and then concentrate on letting the light smooth out the meridians throughout the body.

This is the tenth step of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, which involves hanging the curtain to guard the orifice.

The surging Qi and blood were constantly being straightened out and suppressed.

After two cups of tea, Zhao Rong woke up from his breath adjustment, took the initiative to greet Lu Gui and said goodbye to the people at Zhujian Villa, and returned to the escort agency first.

Qiu Mengting was still very weak and could not move easily.

In addition, several people were slightly injured and had to rest at the inn for the night.

Otherwise, if a group of wounded people come to the door, there will be no talk of helping him.

The two of them rode out of the post station, and Lao Qiu led a few farmhands to see them off to the cliff carvings, and did not return until they could no longer see their backs. "Dad, don't worry, the child is fine."

Qiu Mengting was able to sit up and move his arms on his own, which showed that his qi and blood were flowing smoothly.

Lao Qiu hummed, and then took the opportunity to teach him a lesson: "So that you can know that there is heaven outside the world, and there are people outside the world."

"Our villa is well-known in Longquan, and your martial arts skills are better than those of the young men from the other two villas. But can you stand up to the masters?"

"Are you still complaining that your father made a fuss out of a molehill and took you to Hengyang to find someone to support you just because of the slightest rumor?"

“I dare not.” The brother and sister accepted the lesson.

An ancestor of the Yellow River is so difficult to deal with, not to mention the elders of the Demon Sect.

Qiu Mengting was frightened for a while, and then thought of Zhao Rong who had just left.

He couldn't help but sigh:
"No wonder dad always relies on Mr. Liu. Senior Brother Zhao is so powerful. He is a disciple of a great sect in the world. He is really the best among men. It is difficult to compare with our worldly martial arts family."

"Hahaha!"

Lao Qiu couldn't help laughing after hearing his son sigh.

"Belittle yourself!"

He looked away with a serious look, "I have met most of Third Master's disciples, but they are uneven. You two are not necessarily worse than some of them."

"In my opinion, the person who is still wearing the escort uniform today is probably the personal disciple that Third Master will focus on training next."

"This person is young, but he has hidden acumen, acts with discretion, and has a hidden demeanor of a master."

"Martial arts talent is even rarer."

"Such a character, as long as he doesn't die young, will definitely become famous in the martial arts world in the future."

In Miss Qiu's mind, the fierce palm power of the ancestor of the Yellow River appeared, and a figure in gray clothes stepped forward. At the moment, her beautiful eyes were warm, and she praised from a distance:
"Martial arts are prevalent in Longquan. During the Jiujiu Climbing Festival, there are hundreds of young people fighting at the foot of Piyun Mountain to support the fun. I am afraid that none of these people can catch the palm of the Yellow River Ancestor."

"Dad always said that there is a mountain beyond the mountain. This time in front of Xianhe Ridge, I finally saw the towering Cui Wei of his mountain."

Her eyebrows sparkled: "Dad, since you want to make friends with the Hengshan Sect, why don't you let me and my brother study in the Hengshan Sect?"

Qiu Mengting looked at his sister in surprise.

He had mentioned this in the past, but Meng Yin always objected.

The reason is very simple.
"There are always gaps when leading an art master. If you are not favored by your seniors, it will be extremely difficult to get ahead. It is better to run a sword-making villa, study martial arts, and be free."

today
Why did my sister change her words?

Lao Qiu saw her expectant look and understood instantly.

He didn't bother to point it out.

"It's not that easy to operate. We need to think about it in the long term."

"This time, let's deal with the matter of Changrui Escort Agency first."

……

After Zhao Rong and Lu Gui returned to the Escort Bureau, they told Lu Shilai about the Qiu family. Changrui Escort Bureau, as a landlord, immediately sent someone to invite them.

Because the ancestor of the Yellow River was involved, Lu Shilai had to make a trip to the Liu Mansion.

Information related to the Demon Sect around Hengzhou Mansion must be reported to the sect once the outer disciples below know it. If the situation is serious, the Hengshan Sect will contact the other four sects to help each other.

This is the basis of the Five Mountains Alliance.

Zhao Rong wanted to remind Lu Shilai not to worry about the Yellow River Ancestor.

This man came here for the medicine. He was probably making the Eight Pills for Life-Sustaining to save his daughter, and had no intention of disturbing Chang Rui's situation.

But there is no proof, these words cannot be said to the outside world.

Then I thought about it, if the Hengshan Sect took this seriously and sent more people to the escort agency to support the scene, it might be a good thing.

Three days flew by.

On the fourth day after the ancestor of the Yellow River appeared, Mr. Long and his friends returned one after another.

There is another news to report.

People from Sanhemen and Zhenyuan Escort Bureau will also arrive in Hengyang soon.
