As Deacon Yan came to the wooden corridor in front of the pavilion of Tingtao Courtyard, he saw that there were three people in the pavilion. Princess Gao in the middle was wearing a jade crown and a purple robe with a jade belt, looking like a prince. Geng Chongfeng and Han Yue were the same.
There were attendants on the left and right, and perhaps he knew her identity as a woman. At this time, Luo Xiaoyao felt that Princess Gao, who had a sharp face, a rosy mouth, eyes as bright as paint, and a face as pink as a powder, was actually very handsome.
Pretty and soft.
After standing outside the pavilion and saluting, Princess Gao nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Luo, you must have known the identity of this princess. What do you think of the Xingdao Alliance's submission to the court?" But she did not mention the sword.
"I have lived in the mountains since I was a child. I don't know much about the affairs of the court officials and I dare not speak nonsense."
"Young Master Luo is so cautious about what he said. I think the elder of the master's sect must be a reclusive master. Can you tell me?"
"I don't want my elders to be burdened with mundane matters and not be able to tell you. I hope the princess can forgive me."
Princess Gao raised her brows when she heard this, "This is interesting. It's because Mr. Luo doesn't want to do it, and it's not because the disciples are not allowed. But I heard Hall Master Lin say that it's Mr. Luo and the master Shang Hufa who are not allowing the disciples.
Inform others of the error..."
Last night, she asked Han Yue to go find Lin Yi, and she also asked about Luo Xiaoyao's experience in joining the Xingdao League.
Of course, Luo Xiaoyao is unwilling to tell, and the teacher's sect is not allowed to tell, which naturally has different meanings to Princess Gao. If the teacher's sect is not allowed to tell, it means that the sect is unwilling to interfere in the affairs of Jianghu and the court, so he will not allow it.
When disciples who travel around the world report their famous family, most of them mean to keep them or abandon them, which means that if someone beats them up, the disciples will not come out to support them. If Luo Xiaoyao himself does not want to tell him, then he will
It's different again.
Luo Xiaoyao smiled and said, "The Princess understands everything clearly and I admire you. I must have asked Hall Leader Mo the reason why he took the weapon from me, right?"
He was a naturally intelligent and quick-thinking person, but when he followed Chu Nanfeng, he followed the etiquette and was a little clumsy in speech. At this time, he did not want to talk around the bush with Princess Gao, so he simply took the opportunity to clarify.
Princess Gao closed the folding fan in her hand and said, "Young Master Luo, I almost forgot. Han Yue, tell Young Master Luo what Hall Master Mo said."
"Yes, Princess." After Han Yue bowed to Gao Ruoyu, she turned to Luo Xiaoyao and said, "Han Yue was ordered to ask Hall Master Mo yesterday about the origin of the sword. Hall Master Mo insisted that it came from the Imperial Palace of Shu.
.”
Princess Gao smiled slightly and continued: "Young Master Luo must have heard clearly. Hall Master Mo said it was taken from the Shu Palace, and Young Master Luo said it was passed down from the master's sect. It is difficult for me, Princess, to judge which one is true and which one is false.
Please keep this sword with me for the time being."
Luo Xiaoyao secretly smiled bitterly when he heard this, thinking that the cheating skills of Jingnan Wang Gao's family had been passed down from generation to generation, so he said: "The princess is from the Jingnan royal family, and she must also know that officials judge right and wrong, and pay attention to human and material evidence. The county
If the Lord is fair, can you send someone to accompany you to Xiazhou Ferry and ask the waiter and shopkeeper in the shop? If you don’t know which one is true and which one is false, why bother saying this?"
But after listening to Geng Chongsong's "unbridled" cry, he suddenly left the pavilion and punched Luo Xiaoyao, who was standing outside the pavilion, in the chest. Luo Xiaoyao felt his figure flicker, and the fist's aura had reached in front of him, and he stepped back with his left foot.
, greeted him with the "Sinking Stone into the Sea" move of Bairou Palm, but only removed 30% of Geng Gongsheng's powerful fist. The remaining force still rushed towards him, so he gave a light drink, and retreated with his right foot again, with a move of "
"The clouds and rain" greeted him, but he was forced to take two steps back, barely retreating to the edge of the wooden railing of the corridor.
Just when Geng Gongfeng was about to change his move, Luo Xiaoyao had already dodged to the left to avoid being forced into the pond behind him. His reaction was so fast that Geng Gongfeng was surprised.
Geng Chongfeng said "Okay", and then followed up with a punch. Luo Xiaoyao quickly took two steps back, and then attacked with a move of "picking to repay Li". There was a muffled "bang" and he took three steps back. Geng Chongfeng
But his body only swayed slightly.
When Fang Zi stood still, he heard a sound of "catch the sword" and saw Han Yue throwing a long sword towards him. Luo Xiaoyao was startled and reached out to catch it. At this moment, he guessed that Geng Chongfeng wanted to test his skills.
You should be able to tell where your master comes from in your moves.
At that moment, he calmed down. He was not as strong as Geng Chongfeng in terms of Qi, but his reaction to the moves was similar to Geng Chongfeng. He knew that Geng Chongfeng had been in the spiritual realm for many years and could not fight forcefully. His thoughts suddenly changed.
After that, he retreated to the courtyard behind him.
The area in front of the pavilion was the widest, but it was only two feet wide, and the corridor was only more than four feet wide, which was not conducive to the use of sword moves. When Geng Gongfeng saw him retreating quickly, he also moved his body and punched out,
With the force of thunder, a powerful and majestic fist attacked Luo Xiaoyao. Although he was not a martial artist who practiced physical fitness, nor was he good at fists and feet, after all, he had been immersed in spiritual thoughts for many years, and his fist was even more powerful.
Deacon Yan, who was practicing kung fu so hard that the gravel on the ground was rolled up and shot at Luo Xiaoyao like a hidden weapon.
Luo Xiaoyao did not dare to neglect. He shook his right hand and launched the "Falling Leaves Flying Zero" move, knocking away the gravel that came with the gang energy. At the same time, he took a step back and used the "Xingma Xingyun" move. He first defended and then attacked.
The rules are very strict, and after a few "chi, chi" sounds, the energy of the attacking fist is dissipated.
In terms of martial arts competition, Luo Xiaoyao naturally lost. Geng Chongfeng only used one move, while Luo Xiaoyao could defeat it with two moves. Then Geng Chongfeng said "good" again and attacked again. At this time, he was attacked continuously.
After a few punches, the wind of the fists roared, Luo Xiaoyao felt the air around him swirling rapidly, moving the air all over his body, and used the seven postures of Suzaku: "Zhen Earthworm Dragon Swim", "Jing Fang Raises His Head", "Zhang Lu Flying to the Moon", "Wing Wing".
The "snake spins silk" waited until the "ghost sheep hangs its horns" to resolve the offensive, but it was already forced back in front of the screen wall in the courtyard.
Geng Gongfeng was about to raise his fist again when he heard a burst of applause, and then heard Princess Gao say: "Okay, good skills, Mr. Geng, please step down."
Upon hearing this, Geng Gongfeng drew back his fists and met Princess Gao who was walking towards the court. He shook his head, thinking that he couldn't see through Luo Xiaoyao's origins. Princess Gao's expression changed slightly, and it was fleeting.
He smiled lightly and said, "Young Master Luo's fists and palms are hard and soft at the same time, his sword moves are exquisite and ever-changing, and his wind is transcendent. With such a young talent, I am probably the only one in the world who has Young Master Luo. He is really amazing."
She is similar in age to Luo Xiaoyao, and she speaks like an elder. I think it is because of her status as a princess and her strict control over her, that she is so composed.
Luo Xiaoyao had never been praised like this by a woman in person. He couldn't help but blush with embarrassment. After handing the long sword to Han Yue, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Princess."
"Young Master Luo is so young and has such skills. Why not join the court? One day he will surely become famous all over the world."
Luo Xiaoyao heard Shang You's words last night and understood Princess Gao's intention to recruit, so he said: "Thank you very much, Princess, for your kindness. I have been influenced by my elders since I was a child and have no intention of gaining fame and fortune in the court. I hope you can forgive me."
Seeing that his words were sincere and not pretentious, Princess Gao changed her mind and said, "Everything in the world is unpredictable. If the young master wants to pursue an official career one day... I welcome him at any time."
Luo Xiaoyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "Thank you very much, Princess, for your kindness. This time, due to my inadvertence, the Water Dragon Song was taken away by Hall Master Mo. I hope the Princess will return it. I will definitely be very grateful."
"Thank you very much? That's not necessary." Princess Gao couldn't hear his polite words, "If you can assist me for three years, Shui Longyin will give it to you, how about that?"
Luo Xiaoyao didn't expect that Princess Gao would say this. He was startled when he heard the words: "With the status of Princess Gao's daughter, how can she use such coercive tactics?"
"Oh, Mr. Luo also knows that this princess is still a rich man, so how should you be punished for your crime of peeking at my true identity?"
Princess Gao also smiled calmly and said, although women at that time still dressed in the style of the Tang Dynasty, wearing myrobalan and veil outside, revealing their fragrant shoulders, and there were many people there. But after Princess Gao came out of the bath, she wanted to be close to her body. Myrobalan, Luo Xiaoyao not only caught a glimpse of his bare shoulders, but also half-exposed snow legs. As the princess of Gao, even though it was unintentional, it would be a crime if investigated. Luo Xiaoyao's face turned red, and he was speechless for a moment.
Princess Gao saw that he was blushing, and then said: "Young Master Luo is still a gentleman, and I know that I didn't mean to offend you. If you are willing to bend down and serve me, I will give you this Water Dragon Song immediately." She said. He was quick-thinking and would not say that he was returning the sword, lest he let the story slip.
Luo Xiaoyao was a man who promised a lot of money, and he did not want to deceive her. Hearing this, he shook his head and said: "I have no intention of profit, and I can't steal, so I can't obey my order." His tone was very decisive.
Seeing his lack of hesitation, Princess Gao was startled, and her thoughts changed, "This Water Dragon Song is still taken by Hall Master Mo, so it has nothing to do with me. If Young Master Luo wants to seek revenge, he should go to Hall Mo." It’s the Lord, right?”
These words were really strong words. Luo Xiaoyao knew that she was very good at cheating on her skills, so she said: "Then Hall Master Mo is still under the princess, and he won the Water Dragon Song this time to offer it to the princess. How can the princess say this? With the common people in the world. What's the difference?"
But I heard Geng Chongfeng and Han Yue yell at the same time: "You are wanton."
Princess Gao smiled, raised her hand to signal the two of them to calm down, and thought for a moment, "If Mr. Luo really likes this Water Dragon Song, I, the Princess, must let it go to you, but Mr. Luo must take something. Come and change.”
At this time, she saw that Luo Xiaoyao's face was getting colder. She thought she was afraid that Luo Xiaoyao's master was out of the way, and she was afraid that the matter would not end, so she proposed bartering.
Luo Xiaoyao knew that she was very scheming, and what she wanted to exchange was anything but ordinary. After thinking for a while, he asked: "What is it?"
"Qin, a Qin named Fengwu." It turns out that when Emperor Liu Zhiyuan of the Han Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor five years ago, his father Gao Congjie, King of Nanping, gave Fengwu Qin to Liu Zhiyuan as a tribute, and Princess Gao was very fond of Fengwu Qin. I also loved it very much and have never forgotten it for many years.
"Fengwu Qin? Where is this Qin now? The princess has so many masters, why can't she find it?"
"After the death of Emperor Liu Zhiyuan of the Later Han Dynasty, I don't know where the piano ended up. More than twenty days ago, fortunately, a musician from the former palace came to Jingnan, and I learned that the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty gave this piano to his nephew five years ago. Liu Chengjun, the current prince of the Northern Han Dynasty."
"If several hall masters hadn't gone out to hunt for treasures, haha, I would have designated this object. If Mr. Luo can bring me the Fengwu Qin, I can exchange the Water Dragon Song for it."
Luo Xiaoyao smiled bitterly. If he agreed, it would be like committing a robbery. He hesitated at the moment. Princess Gao seemed to see through his doubts and said with a smile: "This piano originally belonged to my Gao family, but that The envoys of the Later Han Dynasty asked for it by name, so my father-in-law had no choice but to donate it. At this time, I thought it must be the envoy Liu Chengjun."
"Is this true?" As soon as Luo Xiaoyao said it, he felt that he was just deceiving himself. Regardless of whether what Princess Gao said was true or false, if he agreed, he would be committing an act of stealing. He sighed in his heart, thinking that Shuilongyin was still the home of his master. It is said that you must not lose anything. If you want to get something good, this is the only way for now, so he said: "In exchange for the Fengwu Qin...can you really count it?"
The implication was that she was afraid that Princess Gao would cheat. Princess Gao smiled and said, "If I promise something, I will never regret it."
Seeing her serious expression, Luo Xiaoyao thought it was true and said, "Okay, I'll go find her and exchange water dragon chants with the princess. However, I have something to ask for, and I hope the princess can help me."
"Oh, what's the matter, Mr. Luo? But let's talk about it." Princess Gao looked surprised.
"I came to Jingnan this time to inquire about an eminent monk named Mingwu. I only know that he is from Jingnan, but I don't know which temple he came from. I wonder if the princess can help?"
As Princess Gao, it would be twice the result with half the effort to inquire about Mingwu's whereabouts. Luo Xiaoyao, a smart person, naturally thought of this, so he agreed to exchange the harp for the sword.
Princess Gao seemed to be thinking for a moment, then said after a moment: "Is there no eminent monk? Do you have any grudge against the young master?"
Luo Xiaoyao said hurriedly: "That's not the case. An elder in my family was unfortunately injured. I heard that the eminent monk Mingwu had a method to treat him, so I came to Jingnan to find him and help him."
"Oh, that's it... Lord Luo, please rest assured. I will order people to immediately search for the temples in the territory. Even if you are not in Jingnan, I will send people to look around."
She saw that Luo Xiaoyao was still an honest person, and she was sure that what he said was true. At this time, she felt secretly happy in her heart. She thought that if she could find Monk Mingwu, Luo Xiaoyao would have to bear this favor. Thinking of this, she said again: "If Master Mingwu is found, I will certainly invite the Prime Minister to this island. The Northern Han Dynasty's search for qin is not an easy task. Master Luo must be careful."
"Thank you very much, Princess. If the Princess finds any traces of the Master, please tell the Protector. He will tell you at the Master's Gate." After saying this, he said goodbye and left.
Princess Gao really loved him and wanted to use Shuilongyin to threaten Luo Xiaoyao for her own use. Now that she heard Luo Xiaoyao's request and saw him mentioning the injured in his family, his expression became very serious. Concerned, I think the relationship is extraordinary. She is in the court, and she is very good at observing faces. She knows that Luo Xiaoyao is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, and when he finds Monk Mingwu, he will send him When someone notifies Luo Xiaoyao to come back, he will always win him over, whether he takes the favor or Luo Xiaoyao repays the favor.
It's a pity that Luo Xiaoyao doesn't want to owe her any favors. He thinks that Shuilongyin is his property. If Princess Gao can help find Monk Mingwu, going to look for Feng Wuqin this time and coming back can be regarded as repayment. However, the two of them did not Everyone has their own thoughts.
After Luo Xiaoyao left, Princess Gao turned to look at Geng Chongfeng and said: "It may not be easy to seize the piano from the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty this time. This young master Luo has extraordinary skills and must have a great background in his sect. It's a pity that Why didn't you tell me about finding the monk Mingwu earlier? Although Feng Wuqin is good, it can't compare with a talent like Mr. Luo. Mr. Geng, go and ask Mo Busan to follow you secretly to protect Mr. Luo. Think of it as his atonement for his sins. I also ordered several hall masters..."
Seemingly feeling something was wrong, he changed his words and said: "These people in the world are so vulgar in their words and deeds that they may frighten and worry the monks of the Qing Dynasty. You should mobilize some smart people in the house to search the temples in the territory and inquire about the whereabouts of the eminent monk Mingwu. Send a message back as soon as there is news."

In Yaowang Valley, there were several people walking on the road leading out of the valley. One of them, a middle-aged man in a cloth shirt, stopped, squatted down, and looked at a young man next to him with a ponytail and tears in his eyes.
The girl held her slender shoulders and said, "Qingqing, go back with Grandpa Miao. Uncle Fang will definitely visit you when you are free."
The man who spoke was none other than Fang Changsheng, and the little girl was Chang Qingqing who escaped from Daizhou Inn.
Chang Qingqing bit her lips and nodded when she heard this, but tears fell down her face. Fang Changsheng touched the tears on her face with his hands and sighed. Finally, he stood up, held his hands to Miao Changning and others and said, "Fang
I said goodbye." Finally, he turned around and left without looking back.
It turned out that after Liu Gongwen went to Yan Zhongchang's room that day, Chang Qingqing struggled to get out of bed, pushed the cloth from her mouth against the edge of the bed, and jumped to the table with leftovers in the room.
, broke a porcelain bowl, and cut off the cloth strips tied to his hands.
Fortunately, it was not a thick rope, but Liu Gongwen tore off the cloth strips on the quilt. It did not take much time. After cutting the strips tied to his hands and feet, he hid the broken bowls and cloth strips under the bed, but
Thinking that being penniless would definitely be troublesome, I took some broken silver from the package, opened the back window, and saw a pile of horse straw under the window. I no longer felt afraid, so I jumped out of the window that was more than ten feet high.
At that time, all the grooms were drinking and chatting in the stable, and they didn't notice it. However, they were seen by the old man named Yuan who was guarding the gate. Chang Qingqing was quite alert. Seeing that it was getting late, he knew that most of the people had closed their doors to rest.
, now fled to the street, the lonely Yingyi was found by Liu Gongwen, and he knelt down and asked for help from the old man surnamed Yuan, saying that he was kidnapped by the gangsters.
At that time, the world was in chaos, and it was true that gangsters often kidnapped other people's children and sold them to brothels. Old man Yuan's family died due to the war, and he was the only one left. He worked as a caretaker and horse feeder in the backyard of the inn, so naturally he also
I heard many injustices in the world from the guests who traveled north and south, but when I saw Chang Qingqing's tears falling quietly, I felt pity for him and hid Chang Qingqing in the room.
When Liu Gongwen asked, he pretended to be deaf. Liu Gongwen did not expect that Chang Qingqing was hiding in the gatekeeper's room. He saw that Old Yuan seemed to be deaf and smelled of alcohol. He always paid attention to cleanliness.
But he didn't want to get close. When Uncle Yuan asked loudly, he felt bored, so he went to the street to look for it, and missed the chance to find Chang Qingqing.
On the next day, Old Uncle Yuan paid attention to Liu Gongwen's movements. When the horseman carrying Chang Qingqing left the hospital, he also followed him. After seeing Liu Gongwen and others leaving, he followed him.
I told Chang Qingqing.
Chang Qingqing cried with joy, thanked her for saving her life, and was about to leave. Old man Yuan also learned from the conversation that her parents were killed by Liao soldiers, and that she had a foster father in Xiangzhou. She thought that she had been to Xiangzhou for more than a thousand years.
Miles away, it was so difficult for her as a little girl. Thinking that she was also lonely and helpless, she looked at the pitiful Chang Qingqing. After thinking about it, she decided to go to Xiangzhou with her. Chang Qingqing was even more sad and happy after the accident.
Intertwined.
Uncle Yuan resigned from the job of looking after the hospital, prepared dry food and took Chang Qingqing all the way south. On the way, he also met many refugees heading south to the Central Plains, so he went with them. Nothing happened along the way. After a month of eating and sleeping in the open air,
An old man and a young man also went to Xiangzhou and found the courtyard where Gan Shaolong and Fang Changsheng lived.
When Fang Changsheng saw Chang Qingqing's arrival, he almost couldn't believe it and shouted that God has eyes. It turned out that when Miao Changning arranged for his granddaughter to return to the valley and go north to Youzhou, Fang Changsheng also wanted to go with him. After Miao Changning persuaded him, he stayed in Xiangzhou.
Waiting for news, unexpectedly the bad news of Gan Shaolong's death came back. Feeling very sad, he also inquired about Chang Qingqing's whereabouts.
When he learned that she had escaped in the Northern Han Dynasty, he felt even more worried than he was happy. However, he thought that a little girl was helpless and would suffer a lot in the chaos of war. So in a hurry, he ordered the beggars to go.
I searched for it in the Northern Han Dynasty, but I never found it. I was worried every day, and when I suddenly saw Chang Qingqing, I was naturally overjoyed.
Thinking of Gan Shaolong's words of support when he left, he was overjoyed but looked sad at the same time. However, the young and smart Chang Qingqing saw something was wrong and asked about the whereabouts of his adoptive father Gan Shaolong. Fang Changsheng knew that he could not hide it, so he had to
The news of Gan Shaolong's death was told to her.
Although Chang Qingqing had been with Gan Shaolong for less than two months, they had been as dependent on each other in life and death as a father and daughter. However, when she knew that Gan Shaolong had lost his life for her, she was stunned for a moment and burst into tears. Although she was young,
, but had already experienced suffering, and had lost many relatives in the past two or three months. For a moment, he was so sad that he fainted from tears, which made Fang Changsheng and Yuan Bo also shed tears.
A few days later, Chang Qingqing came back to her senses, but when she heard that Fang Changsheng wanted to take her to Yaowang Valley, she was unwilling. Naturally, she was reluctant to leave Fang Changsheng and Yuan Bo and the others. Fang Changsheng had no choice but to let her go to Yaowang Valley to learn skills.
Gan Shaolong's reason for revenge convinced Chang Qingqing to nod in agreement.
It was already the end of the year, and the weather was very cold, so Fang Changsheng waited until next spring when the flowers bloomed before taking her along.
Chang Qingqing was very sensible and felt deeply for Uncle Yuan's life-saving grace. Seeing that he was getting older, she asked Uncle Yuan to go with him in order to be by her side and take care of her. However, Uncle Yuan was lonely and had no interest in her, who was extremely courageous.
I loved it so much that I readily agreed upon hearing it.
After arriving at Yaowang Valley, Miao Changning and Miao Xiuzhu were both happy. After Gan Shaolong rescued Miao Kexue, their hatred for Gan Shaolong's stealing of books had long gone. What's more, Chang Qingqing also hid Gan Shaolong's "hundreds of books" in her body.
The "Insect Poison Sutra" is returned.
Gan Shaolong's death was also due to the fact that Miao Kexue was kidnapped. Now everyone in the Miao family felt grateful and loved Chang Qingqing.
Fang Changsheng stayed in Yaowang Valley for two days, but he was not used to it, so he wanted to leave, but Chang Qingqing refused to stay. After ten days of delay, he thought that there were no one to restrain the beggars in Xiangzhou, and he was afraid of accidents, so he insisted on it.
After leaving, Chang Qingqing had no choice but to send her to the mouth of the valley, and then reluctantly said goodbye to Fang Changsheng.
