Chapter 24 The Honesty of a Gentleman (please read, please vote)
"Do you want me to go with you to see Mr. Qu?" Yue Buqun directly revealed Ma Changkong's purpose.
In fact, this is also the reason why Yue Buqun and Ma Changkong continue to contact each other.
If Mr. Qu really smuggled thunder and fire bombs to kill Jui, then the Jui he had to deal with might be relatively weak, or at least have some obvious weaknesses.
Otherwise, as the escorts come and go, the day lily will be cold, and so will Mrs. Qu.
If Yue Buqun follows him and kills another Weixie, he should be able to collect the amount needed to open the Chaoyang Peak map.
Moreover, making friends with a local squire who is reputable in the local area will also be helpful for rebuilding or even expanding the Huashan Sect in the future.
Yue Buqun needs to make long-term considerations.
Of course, after reviving his life, Yue Buqun has no intention of becoming a dog again.
If you want him to take action, you can!
You must have an appropriate attitude towards asking for help.
Ma Changkong's purpose was directly revealed, and he felt a little embarrassed, but not much... After all, he was leading the topic in this direction.
Why run into the world if you want face?
"Master Yue, I see you clearly! If this deal collapses like this, all the members of my Changkong Escort Agency will have to drink from the northwest wind. If you offend Mr. Qu, you will not be able to make a living in Zezhou.
"Ma Changkong lowered his head and looked pitiful.
Yue Buqun opened the folding fan with a 'pop' sound, shook it a few times, felt the wind was a bit cold, and closed the fan again.
"Your destination is Zezhou?" Yue Buqun asked.
Ma Changkong nodded.
"That's alright! I happen to be on my way, so I'll follow you, but first let's talk about it. I won't guarantee your affairs. I'm just going to take a look out of morality and do what I can..." Yue
There is still room for disunity.
Yang Buhui didn't say anything during the whole process, let alone interfere.
Although Yue Buqun and her destination is the Taishan sect, it is only natural that they encounter assassins and murderers along the way.
In Yang Buhui's view, if he encounters any evil spirits, he should be killed directly if he has the ability.
After all, if you don’t kill him now, it will be really difficult to kill him after one or two versions.
The power of evil is far superior to that of ordinary people in the world. If it evolves one or two more times, it will be almost completely unsolvable for ordinary people.
Don't say anything else.
Firearms were used a lot in the Song Dynasty.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty when Yang Buhui lived, the use of firearms was very different from what it is now.
However, in the process of fighting against evil, firearms only played some initial role, and became less and less effective as time went on.
Modern explosives in people's conventional perception are not on the same level as firearms from the Song and Ming dynasties.
The night is over and the sky is bright, but the rain has not stopped.
The large group of people rushed through the rain, heading straight to Zezhou City.
Zezhou is an ancient city, known as Jianxing in ancient times. It is nourished by the Dan River and the Qin River and has given birth to a rich civilization.
The reason why I say this is because in any ancient land, ancient city, or birthplace of ancient civilization, there are indispensable wealthy families, powerful families, and powerful people.
They are both crystals and tumors, an inevitable choice of farming civilization, and the negative accumulation of human heart and human nature.
The heavy rain stopped when it approached Zezhou City.
Yue Buqun and Yang Buhui did not directly follow Ma Changkong to visit Mr. Qu, but found a relatively clean and comfortable inn to stay.
Ma Changkong was very sensible. He sent someone to pay the room fee in advance and ordered a table full of good wine and food to entertain him.
After drinking and eating, Yue Buqun waited for Mrs. Qu to visit him.
I just waited until the next day and saw the housekeeper of Qu Mansion.
Although the housekeeper's words were very polite when he came to invite him, Yue Buqun still easily understood the alienation in them.
This is the consistent attitude of rural gentlemen towards people in the world.
If there is a strong thief who passes through the border with a name, then I will spend dozens of taels of silver to avoid disaster.
If you are a disciple of a famous sect, you should politely invite him to your door. After testing his potential, accept him as a pawn.
Yue Buqun was not annoyed, and politely declined Old Mrs. Qu's 'banquet', and then asked Yang Buhui to leave.
No words were left out in the whole process.
But after Yue Buqun and Yue Buqun were five miles away from the city, another fast horse came after them.
"Master Yue! Master Yue, please stay!"
"My old lady is indeed suffering from an old illness and it is difficult to come to greet him in person. I would like to ask Master Yue to forgive me for my inappropriateness." The man who was chasing after him on horseback said.
Yue Buqun sat on the horse and held up his hands: "Thank you very much, Mr. Qu, for your kindness. Yue is a martial artist, how dare you ask the old man to come in person..."
Speaking of this, Yue Buqun suddenly smiled and shook his head.
You have been a hypocrite for too long, and some habits are still hard to change.
Now that you have made up your mind not to compromise, why go back to the old path?
Then he bluntly stated the truth: "A gentleman's heart is not only good at being sincere, but there is nothing else to do if he is sincere!"
After saying that, he turned the horse's head, raised his head, smiled, and walked away with his whip raised.
But at this time, Gao Hanxing's card fusion level increased to another level, reaching two-thirds of the level.
Just a little bit, and everything is integrated.
From then on, Yue Buqun no longer stuck to this outfit and no longer had to imitate it deliberately.
If Wang Ye knew the progress of Yue Buqun's card fusion, he would probably cry out loud.
Putting aside the calculations in his heart, Yue Buqun no longer deliberately stayed and waited.
Within half a day, Yue Buqun and Yang Buhui ran out for nearly a hundred miles and arrived at a village.
Before entering the village, looking for someone to ask for a drink of water, I saw someone setting up a temporary teahouse at the entrance of the village.
An old man with white beard and hair, wearing a dark green straight jacket and a black scarf hat, was sitting in the teahouse making tea.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, he raised his head and looked at Yue Buqun and waved: "The knight is traveling far away and is thirsty. How about coming over for a cup of tea?"
Yue Buqun lifted the hem of his clothes, dismounted from his horse, cupped his hands and said, "Only those with deep breasts can taste tea. Yue is a man of the world, a vulgar and wild man, and he only wants to drink."
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The person who can speak out the "Sincerity" chapter in "Xunzi·BuGou" is not an ordinary person in the world."
"However, I have already prepared the Fenjiu from Xinghua Village. I wonder if you like it?"
"It turns out it was Mrs. Qu who was in front of me!"
Yue Buqun laughed: "The wine is good wine, just bring it!"
Immediately, someone brought out a jug of wine and was about to deliver it to Yue Buqun.
Mr. Qu took the wine flask, filled a glass himself, and handed it to Yue Buqun.
Looking at Mr. Qu, who was holding the wine glass in both hands, with no arrogance in his expression, Yue Buqun turned around and grabbed the wine bottle on the tray beside him: "One cup is not enough, old man, don't blame Yue for being greedy!"
After that, he took the spout and drank directly.
In his previous life, Yue Buqun seldom drank alcohol, but it was because of Linghu Chong that he had an aversion to alcohol.
Nowadays, my mentality has changed, and the wine has entered my heart, but it has given rise to many joyful feelings that I have never had before.
Now that you are in the rivers and lakes, how can you not drink the wine of wild waves?
A gentleman's sincerity lies in his heart, not in his actions.
"Good drinker! Qu is here. I wish the knights a safe journey!" Mr. Qu drank the wine in one gulp, then clasped his hands and said.
Yue Buqun turned around and asked, "You don't want me to kill Gui for you?"
Mr. Qu said: "In order to punish this evil, the Qujia Village lost a total of twenty-seven heroes. The chivalrous men are extraordinary. How can they be killed here before they can spread their wings?"
Yue Buqun put down the wine bottle, glanced at Mr. Qu, and then said: "I believe you are a fierce general!"
"Prepare three swords for me, the epee...a good sword!"
