Chapter 480: Old Friends in the Capital (Bonus Chapter 2/2)

After returning to his residence, Feng Qingyang placed the several jars of wine he had taken from Linghu Chong on the ground and then fell into deep thought again.

Feng Qingyang paced back and forth in the cave.

After a while.

Feng Qingyang paused, already having made up his mind.

He was going down the mountain to Henan.

Ask them carefully what the "prescription" means.

……

Linghu Chong, who had just come down from the Cliff of Contemplation, smelled the alcohol on his body and his expression became somewhat serious.

"Go take a shower first."

Linghu Chong planned to take a shower and change his clothes.

Halfway there, a disciple of Mount Hua came towards them.

"Senior Brother."

Shu Qi bowed to Linghu Chong.

"Uh-huh."

Linghu Chong nodded and was about to leave.

However, he was in a hurry and Shu Qi stopped him.

"Senior Brother, where are you rushing off to? I happen to have some questions I'd like to ask you."

Shu Qi said.

Linghu Chong quickly dodged, not wanting Shu Qi to smell the alcohol on him. "You go find Junior Brother Jiang Ning, I don't have time right now."

Shu Qi had already sensed something was wrong. He sniffed the air and suddenly realized what was going on.

"Oh! Senior Brother, you've been secretly drinking again! I'm going to tell Master..."

Before Shu Qi could finish speaking, Linghu Chong covered his mouth.

"Shh, don't tell Master."

Linghu Chong covered Shu Qi's nose so tightly and urgently that Shu Qi's eyes rolled back in his head from the suffocation.

Just as the two brothers were joking around, they saw a disciple from Mount Hua walking towards Jin Suo Guan.

"Senior Brother, Junior Brother Shu Qi, what are you doing?"

The Huashan disciple was taken aback.

Upon seeing this, Linghu Chong quickly let go of his hand.

"fine."

After giving a perfunctory reply, Linghu Chong asked suspiciously, "Weren't you guarding the mountain at Thousand-Foot Cliff? Why did you come here?"

The Huashan disciple quickly said, "Senior Brother, someone has come up the mountain. He says he is an old friend of Junior Brother Jiangning from the capital."

Linghu Chong was taken aback.

"Your junior brother's old friend in the capital?"

Jiang Ning actually has friends outside?

He thought Jiang Ning did nothing but kill people outside.

"Who is that person? Have you found out?"

Linghu Chong asked.

The Huashan disciple nodded.

"I asked, but the person didn't say who he was. He just said he was sent by his master and that as long as he told Junior Brother Jiang Ning to mention Zhu Shou, Junior Brother Jiang Ning would know who he was."

master?

Linghu Chong frowned.

Those who are addressed in this way are usually high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

My junior brother actually has a friend who is a high-ranking official?

"Then go ahead."

Linghu Chong thought about it and decided it didn't matter; he didn't care about these things.

The Huashan disciple nodded and left.

"Senior Brother, I..."

Just as Shu Qi was about to speak, Linghu Chong looked at him and said, "Junior brother, don't tell Master about my drinking. I'll teach you swordsmanship."

Shu Qi's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

He just happened to be unfamiliar with some of the Huashan sword techniques.

"Senior Brother, it's a deal!"

Only after reaching an agreement with Shu Qi did Linghu Chong feel relieved enough to leave.

……

"Junior Brother Jiang Ning, Junior Brother Jiang Ning."

The Huashan disciple began calling out as soon as he reached the house outside Jiangning's house.

Jiang Ning opened the door and walked out of the house.

"Senior brother, what's wrong?"

The Huashan disciple then recounted what he had just told Linghu Chong.

Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing this.

Zhu Shou?

He does remember this person.

"Senior brother, I understand. Bring that person here."

Jiang Ning said.

"it is good."

The Huashan disciple turned and left.

Jiang Ning pondered for a while, and then the Huashan disciple arrived with another person.

The man had an ordinary appearance and dressed very plainly.

However, he always had a smile on his face.

"Junior brother, it's him."

The Huashan disciple pointed at the man and said.

Jiang Ning nodded: "Thank you, Senior Brother."

After the Huashan disciple left, the man bowed to Jiang Ning.

"This humble one, Zhu Qi, greets Young Master Jiang."

The movements were very respectful.

"Did Zhu Shou send you?"

Jiang Ning glanced at him, looking him up and down while asking him questions.

This person had a smile on his face, calluses on his hands, and a very stable lower body, indicating that he had some basic skills, but no internal strength.

"Yes, Young Master Jiang, our master has something to tell you."

Zhu Qi was very respectful, even bowing slightly as he spoke.

"What message did Brother Zhu ask you to deliver?"

Zhu Qi still bowed slightly.

"My master said that it has been almost a year since we last met in the capital. Some time ago, he learned from people who came to the capital that Young Master Jiang was in danger. He was quite worried and asked me to come to Mount Hua to inquire about Young Master Jiang. I also brought a letter with me."

After saying that, Zhu Qi took out a letter from his pocket and handed it over with both hands.

Jiang Ning accepted the letter expressionlessly.

To Brother Jiang

It has been several months since we parted ways last year...

The beginning is just some rambling and not very important; the real content comes at the end.

"I never imagined that Brother Jiang was the renowned King Ning of Hell in the martial world, and also a great hero of Guanzhong appointed by the imperial court. When I first met Brother Jiang, I thought he was a disciple of some wealthy family, which only made me laugh."

Jiang Ning showed no expression upon seeing this.

"I'm sure Brother Jiang is curious about how I know your true identity. I am very curious about you, Brother Jiang, and also about the martial arts world. So I would like to invite you to the capital for a chat, where many questions will be answered."

I'd also like to learn about the "Fish Theory" that Brother Jiang mentioned; perhaps we're kindred spirits.

Looking forward to seeing Brother Jiang again.

The signature is Zhu Shou.

Jiang Ning calmly finished reading the letter, then looked at Zhu Qi. "What else did Brother Zhu say?"

Zhu Qi hurriedly said, "My master instructed me to tell Young Master Jiang that he is very interested in what Young Master Jiang said and wants to discuss this issue with Young Master Jiang again. Please make sure Young Master Jiang comes."

Jiang Ning looked at him and said, "I don't plan to go down the mountain for the time being."

Zhu Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master also instructed that Young Master Jiang can go to the capital at any time."
