Li Muchan and Lin Qiongying talked in low voices, and the people around them listened with their ears perked up.
He turned around and took a look, but he didn't see Taoist Priest Zheng of Chaoyang Mountain, nor did he see Li Yuqi or the others.
"Have you ever heard of Chaoyang Mountain, Master Lin?" Li Muchan asked.
Lin Qiongying raised an eyebrow: "Chaoyang Mountain?... Where did you hear Chaoyang Mountain?"
Li Muchan said: "I met a senior who talked about Chaoyang Mountain."
Lin Qiongying nodded and said: "Chaoyang Mountain is said to be a Taoist hermitage. It is mysterious and mysterious. I only heard about it, but I don't know where it is."
"Oh——?" Li Muchan became more and more curious.
Lin Qiongying said: "It may be a mountain, or it may be a sect. No one knows. I only know that the Taoist priests there are very powerful."
Li Muchan nodded.
"Did you meet a Taoist priest?" Lin Qiongying asked.
Li Muchan admitted: "Yes, he is a Taoist senior."
Lin Qiongying said: "That should not be common people. Taoist priests from Chaoyang Mountain will not appear easily. In today's world, Buddhism is very prosperous, and Taoism has declined. They pay attention to obeying nature and responding to people, and most of them live in seclusion in the mountains and forests."
Li Muchan smiled, Taoist Zheng was indeed not a common man.
Lin Qiongying said again: "Zhan Ran, after the birthday banquet, go to my sect to spend a while!"
Li Muchan shook his head and sighed: "Thank you very much, Master Lin, for your kindness. That's it this time. I have offended the Helian family and am being hunted by them."
"Helian Family?" Lin Qiongying frowned and snorted: "This Helian Family is so arrogant!"
Li Muchan said: "The number one family in the northwest is strong and arrogant. After the birthday feast, I will find a place to hide."
Lin Qiongying hummed: "Then come to my Yuxian Sect!"
Seeing Li Muchan shaking his head, Lin Qiongying chuckled: "I'm sorry they don't have the guts to come over either!"
Li Muchan still shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, Master Lin, one more thing is worse than one less thing. The Helian family can become the largest sect in the northwest, and its reputation is definitely not in vain."
Lin Qiongying sneered: "I would like to meet the largest sect in the northwest!"
She continued: "Okay, you are a manly man, don't talk about mother-in-law and mother-in-law, just listen to me this time...Xian'er and Qier are here, and they are accompanying the women in the back. You can meet them later!"
Li Muchan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
A lean old man next to him asked with a smile: "I don't know where this young master is from. In which temple does he practice?"
Lin Qiongying frowned, rolled her eyes at him, and hummed: "Senior Ji, I am talking to Master Zhanran, there must be someone who comes first, first served?!"
"Haha, okay, then you guys say it, you guys say it." The lean old man said hurriedly.
Li Muchan smiled heartily and said: "I, Zhanran, have practiced spiritual practice in the world. Now I am in Jinyang Mei Mansion. This time I am here to congratulate Mr. Jin on his birthday on behalf of the third girl."
He secretly laughed inwardly. Reporting his family status and breaking the mystery like this would surely disappoint many people. He took this opportunity to see the depth of these people.
"That's it..." The lean old man suddenly realized, he laughed twice, turned his head, and showed a trace of contempt in his eyes.
The remaining five people all showed strange expressions, some were contemptuous, some were strange, and some had unchanged expressions.
Li Muchan looked at them one by one and secretly admired that there was no false person despite his great reputation. However, with his status, there were still people who did not despise him, but paid more attention to him.
Lin Qiongying suddenly clapped her hands gently and chuckled: "I remember it!... A rising star has recently emerged in the martial arts world. He has excellent swordsmanship and is called the Double Sword Monk Zhanran. But you?"
Li Muchan nodded and said with a smile: "Headmaster Lin was just laughing... on the way here, I couldn't keep my hands free, so I took care of some other things."
"Sure enough, it's you." Lin Qiongying pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "I guessed it was you as soon as I heard it. These major events are all very good, very good."
"My little master turned out to be Zhan Ran, the monk with two swords." An old man with a square face stroked his beard and nodded with admiration on his face.
He has a square face, auburn complexion, bright eyes, and a sense of uprightness that makes people awe-inspiring. His whole body is filled with dignity and righteousness.
Lin Qiongying said calmly: "This is Daxia Gu Liangzhu Gu, the hero of Tiannan."
It was very polite for Li Muchan to join him: "It turns out to be Daxia Gu, disrespectful."
Gu Liangzhu sighed: "My young master's heroic deeds are truly remarkable! ... Feihua Village and Qinglong Village are famous and notorious. I have always wanted to eradicate them, but I have been unable to do so."
Li Muchan smiled and said, "It's just a fluke."
"One family is lucky, but more than a dozen families are not lucky!" Gu Liangzhu laughed loudly, with beaming eyes, and praised: "The people of Jiuyan City are very grateful to our little master!"
The two of them were talking, and several other people also spoke one after another, mostly with compliments, but with mostly doubts in their eyes, not quite believing it.
Seeing is believing, hearing is believing. There are too many rumors in the martial arts world. Although they have heard of the dual-sword monk Zhanran, at this time, Li Muchan has a calm demeanor, restrained spirit, and his energy is concentrated in Zidan without spilling.
He doesn't seem to know how to do martial arts.
It is really unbelievable that such a person is said to be a rising star who is rising rapidly.
A few of them were talking, and people at several tables around them were also talking in low voices. They glanced here from time to time, out of curiosity, and the hall was buzzing.
Suddenly, the bell rang, and everyone suddenly fell silent.
The sound of bells and bells lingered in the hall, and a middle-aged man raised his voice and said, "Please invite our birthday boy, Mr. Lu!"
"Haha..." Amidst the laughter, Mr. Lu, dressed in brocade clothes and smiling broadly, entered the hall, holding his hands in his arms as he walked.
People got up one after another to greet Mr. Lu, and it was very lively for a while.
Mr. Lu was dressed in brocade clothes, with a red face and a hearty smile. He walked slowly, and everyone came forward to salute him. He stopped and walked, and he came to the main seat like stars over the moon.
He picked up the big bowl brought by his disciple, turned to face the crowd, and said with a smile: "Old man, I finally lived to be sixty!...Twenty years ago, I thought that in this life, I could fight and kill.
If you live to forty, you should be content. Ten years ago, I thought, I am really content. It is enough to be able to live to fifty or sixty. I never thought that I have really lived to sixty!...This life is considered a lifetime.
It's almost going well. The old man is really flattered and honored that everyone can come..."
"Mr. Lu, please don't be polite. It's your sixtieth birthday. How can we not come? Haha..." A middle-aged man shouted.
A man responded loudly: "What Mr. Di said is true! ... We are greatly helped by the old man, and we are very happy to be able to wish you a birthday, old man!"
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome, the old man can't do this with just a little effort..."
"Wait a minute!" Suddenly a shout came out, sounding like thunder, the hall buzzed, and people turned their heads to look.
But they saw two old men slowly walking into the hall and coming to the front of Mr. Lu.
The old man in front is tall and strong, with a round face and small eyes, which are slightly squinted, giving people a gloomy look, and his eyes are shining with a burning light.
The other old man is tall and burly, slightly thinner, but has a majestic appearance. The lightning flashes when he looks around, giving him a majestic look.
Li Muchan frowned and waved gently.
Feng Shisheng stood beside Mr. Lu, glaring at the two old men, but his eyes were wide open and he heard Li Muchan's wave.
He hurriedly came to Li Muchan quietly and whispered: "Master...?"
Li Muchan whispered: "Go and get my two swords."
Feng Shisheng looked at him and saw that his face was as dark as water and his tone was unquestionable. He nodded and quietly left the hall and went to the Jingshe to get Li Muchan's sword.
"What do you two friends have to say?" Mr. Lu asked with a smile.
He didn't seem to notice that the two people were coming from bad intentions, but he still greeted each other with a smile, and everyone admired them. This kind of accomplishment alone is not something ordinary people can achieve.
People in the martial arts world often draw their swords at each other when they have a disagreement. This is because they have practiced martial arts and have sufficient energy. When the energy is high, they are prone to impulsiveness and violence.
It is really rare to find someone like Mr. Lu who has great martial arts skills but also has an excellent temperament and can control his temper.
"Let's come over and find someone!" The tall, strong old man stared at Mr. Lu and said slowly.
"Oh——?" Mr. Lu still smiled and said: "Which one are you looking for?...Who are these two friends?"
"We are Helian guest ministers." The tall and strong old man said calmly.
Mr. Lu smiled and nodded: "So he is a friend of the Helian family!"
He smiled and said, "I wonder who the friends of the Helian family are looking for. What's the important matter?"
Another old man shouted in a deep voice: "No need to ask more questions about the Helian family!"
Mr. Lu frowned, but still smiled and said with a smile: "Everyone who comes to my house is my friend, how can you not ask?"
The old man sneered: "Lu, you should consider your own weight first! I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it if you get involved in the Helian family's affairs!"
Mr. Lu said with a smile: "This is strange. Could it be that the Helian family has something to hide and must keep secret?"
"Bold!" the old man shouted, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
"What a arrogant guy!" A sneer suddenly sounded.
Li Muchan was surprised when he saw a lean old man standing at his table. He was the man who had spoken to him before.
The two old men turned to look.
The tall old man frowned and said in a deep voice: "Flying Monkey King Ji Cunzhi?"
"It's me!" The lean old man screamed strangely and cursed: "You two old men are too arrogant, you dare to disturb the good things of Master Lu! What about the Helian family, today I will teach you Helian family a lesson!"
"Ji, get out of here!" the majestic old man shouted angrily, his eyes gleaming, full of power.
Ji Cunzhi screamed: "Take the move!"
With a flicker of his body, he suddenly arrived in front of the majestic old man and punched him out, unexpectedly and extremely fast.
With a muffled "bang" sound, Ji Cunzhi flew out.
The majestic old man slowly withdrew his fist, sneered again and again, glanced across everyone's faces, and shouted: "Whoever refuses to accept, just stand up!"
Ji Cunzhi fell to the sky and fell in front of the threshold. Feng Shisheng happened to come in, carrying two long swords with silver-gray scabbards, simple and elegant. Seeing this, he hurriedly helped Ji Cunzhi up.
Ji Cunzhi stood up with difficulty, his face flushed. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and glared at the majestic old man angrily: "Okay, no wonder he is so crazy, he has some ability!"
Li Muchan stood up slowly and said calmly: "Zhanran, are you looking for me?"
His voice was calm and came out slowly, resounding throughout the hall and attracting everyone's attention.
The two old men's eyes lit up and they turned to look.
The majestic old man said coldly: "Are you Zhanran?! Zhanran from Jinyang Meifu?!"
"Not bad." Li Muchan nodded and waved, and Feng Shisheng hurriedly ran to him and handed over the two swords.
