Chapter 21 The Zhong family proposes marriage
Zhong Lingxi and Ling'e came back from Wujianping. They were introduced to each other by Li Xintian. Since they were similar in age, they got closer on weekdays. However, as the middleman, Li Xintian was younger and the girls were not as worried as these two.
People understand better,
Today Lingxi and Ling'e are competing in Jianping. On the one hand, it is a daily training project of the sect, and it is also an exchange of experiences between the two. Master Ling'e is from Fenghuzi, and is the same master as Fifth Xiaoxiao, while Zhong Lingxi and
Although Fifth Xiaoxiao is an old acquaintance from Yinren and is similar in age, in the sect competition half a month later, they are the two most popular soldiers.
It’s not that the two of them have advanced cultivation. The reason why their competition has attracted so much attention is because of their appearance. As the saying goes: “It’s very beautiful when beauties fight!”
Although Zhong Lingxi is not bad in talent, and she follows Ou Yezi, the great elder of the Qingyun Sect, so her winning rate is higher, but she is well aware of the saying "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles", and Wu Xiaoxiao was in the hidden world at the time.
Ren Zhen, when he was the master of the twelve martial arts, his strength was higher than his own, and he should be even stronger today.
巘戅戅.拫欝戫. Hence the battle with Ling'e. After all, both the other party and Fifth Xiaoxiao studied under Feng Huzi, so it was natural to see the martial arts school of the mountain master.
In general, Feng Huzi's methods of fighting with others are unpredictable. Whether they are hidden weapons or traps, they are all integrated into the battle. The martial arts cultivation of their group may not be outstanding in the entire sect, but when it comes to
His actual combat ability can definitely be ranked in the top three. This makes sense. Feng Huzi is a master of weapon refining like Lin Rufa. Naturally, he can make all kinds of weapons, which can be said to be used to a certain limit.
For example, in the battle between her and Ling'e just now, the two of them fought on the sword dancing platform that was a hundred feet long and wide. The battle lasted for more than fifty rounds, but Ling'e didn't use any of her attack methods more than three times.
.
Although Zhong Lingxi won by luck in the end, it was because Ling'e was limited by the terrain of the scene. If it were on a real battlefield and matched with her body skills, it is really hard to say what the outcome would be.
The Fifth Xiaoxiao has also studied martial arts with Feng Huzi for five years. She is extremely good at concealment and is a natural assassination master. Therefore, the martial arts inheritance of Tianzhu Peak is very similar to her martial arts path.
Harmony.
As the two of them walked along, they naturally attracted the attention of their classmates who were passing by. The two of them were obviously used to it, and they headed towards their residence halfway up the mountain without paying much attention. At this moment, a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old
A young man wearing a blue gown hurriedly ran from a distance, shouting loudly as he ran: "Senior Sister Lingxi, it's not good, Senior Sister Lingxi!"
Zhong Lingxi heard someone calling her name, so she stopped to look and found that it was a registered disciple of Ou Yezi. She remembered that his name was Fan Cheng.
The young lady ran up to him out of breath, took a few big breaths and said, "It's not good, Senior Sister Lingxi!"
"Junior Brother Fan? Don't be in a hurry. Speak slowly and clearly. What happened?" the beautiful girl asked in a deep voice.
"Zhong, Zhong Rui brought a lot of things to Qingling Peak. Judging from his posture, he seemed to be here to propose marriage!" The young man finished speaking in one breath, and then started breathing heavily.
As soon as these words came out, Ling'e on the side became interested and asked excitedly: "Really? What did you bring?"
"Ling'e!" Zhong Lingxi shouted angrily.
Ling'e narrowed her big eyes and said with a smile: "Hey, I'm just kidding. I know you won't marry him. I'm just curious about what they gave me..."
The young man named Fan Cheng raised his hand and scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Senior Sister Xu, I heard from other senior brothers on duty that Zhong Rui spent a lot of money this time! Just two gold and silver coins.
According to a rough estimate, the carriage must cost 70,000 to 80,000 taels. If it doesn’t work out, there will be 100,000 taels!”
"One hundred thousand taels! My dear... Miss Zhong, you are really a rich lady!" Ling'e grew up on Qingyun Mountain and didn't know much about the actual purchasing power of yellow and white things in the world, but she usually
I often secretly go down the mountain to the city to eat some delicious food. In comparison, the cost of eating is naturally much smaller.
"Senior Sister Xu... Uh, I mean Senior Sister Ling'e. This Zhong Rui has already arrived at the bottom of Qingling Peak. I came here to talk to Senior Sister Lingxi." The young man just wanted to call Xu Ling'e Senior Sister Xu, but he immediately
Change your words.
Ling'e grew up in a family and had deep feelings for her brothers and sisters. Although her surname was Xu, she had no feelings for her parents who gave birth to her but did not support her.
Therefore, people who are familiar with her know that the girl likes to be called Ling'e, Senior Sister Ling'e, Junior Sister Ling'e, etc., instead of Senior Sister Xu or Junior Sister Xu.
When Zhong Lingxi heard that Zhong Rui came directly to the guru's door with a gift, he was immediately furious! It seemed that the lesson he learned from beating him up last time was not enough, so he dared to come to the door with a shy face.
"Ling'e, I won't go to your place today. I have some things to deal with!" After saying that, she turned to look at the half-grown boy and said in a deep voice: "Little Fan Cheng, lead the way. Let's see how senior sister teaches this Zhong.
Big shopkeeper!"
…………Dividing line…………
Yi Xifeng left Xuanwu City with a large bag of medicinal materials and a new power distribution map given by Miss Xiu'er, with a smile on his lips.
This power map is the result of the Zhong Family Trading Company's continuous exploration of several forests near the Kingdom of Beasts in the past few years. The content is extremely detailed. However, if you want to say how valuable it is, it also depends on who is in the hands. After all, intelligence information is different from ordinary information.
The goods are different, and the more they are shared, the greater their value will be.
Yi Xifeng did not stay in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Beasts for too long, and the Silver Moon Anaconda was still being hunted. At this time, the sect's trial was completed, and he had to deal with some matters of his own. As for Zhong Lingxi and Zhong Rui's
He thought he should join in the fun of this "marriage".
Instead of going to the nearest territory of the King of Alien Beasts on the power map, the youth trail went straight to the nearest ferry along the official road. He knew that the fastest way to cross the entire Kingdom of Beasts was to take a boat.
Looking at this almost unchanged ferry, Yi Xifeng's impression was that it was just like this five years ago. Time seemed to have left no trace on this ferry. The sailors were still shouting slogans and the same sailors were still wearing white clothes.
The man in a singlet. Yi Xifeng skillfully placed a piece of silver in his hand, walked up to a middle-aged man wearing official clothes, and said calmly:
"Is there a ship bound for Luo Yun Kingdom?"
The middle-aged clerk was holding a pen at the entrance, registering the account books. After all, this is the ferry closest to Xuanwu City, and the flow of goods is very busy on weekdays. So he didn't even raise his head to see who was speaking. Until
The broken piece of silver fell on the table where the account books were placed, and the clerk put it away very skillfully, and then shrugged his shoulders in an inconspicuous manner.
"Heading to Luo Yunguo? Well, you can't catch this trip. It's basically full. Let's go tomorrow morning, young master!" As he said this, the middle-aged official pointed to the train parked on the east bank.
A double-decker boat.
Yi Xifeng glanced at the position he pointed at, and without any nonsense, he directly took out a piece of silver and said calmly: "If there are problems, solve them, and if there are difficulties, overcome them!"
…
Half an hour later, Yi Xifeng faced the river breeze blowing from the water and listened to the young official on the shore hurriedly scolding the two young couples who had been driven off the boat.
Five years is enough time to change a lot of things, but there are also a lot of things that have not changed. Just like this ferry, it is still so busy, and the money-grubbing official is still the same, nothing has changed. Just like the fair-skinned young man with a strong sense of justice.
, when faced with such a money-grubbing petty official for the first time, he would definitely find ways to punish him, but five years later, a young man Xiaodao was extremely skilled in paying money to board the ship.
Everyone is constantly changing in their own life trajectories. Some people have gotten better, some have become what they once hated, and some people have transcended their original vision and focused their attention on levels.
Higher places.
If Yi Xifeng met himself five years ago, I'm afraid his former self would say: "This is not upright enough, nor is it pleasant enough!"
But now Yi Xifeng can only smile indifferently, and then say calmly: "I paid!"
…
The secular world is also a world, but unlike those big shots who always have their eyes fixed on martial arts and heaven, they care more about the three-acre land in front of them.
If Yi Xifeng doesn't pay today, just like he did five years ago, this money-grubbing official will be punished. It may be a great relief for the people traveling this time. But as long as there are officials at this ferry
In such a position, if one person is renovated, another will be replaced, and there will be no substantial change for the entire ferry. In other words, the key to this problem is not the individual officials, but the official system itself.
Here I write a limerick, which can be regarded as a short story, just for everyone to laugh at.
Discussing officials
A young man takes off on the wind, and a young man returns with broken wings.
Once there was a great ambition, and no matter how difficult it was, no matter how difficult it was.
Even if a hero dies, his bones will be fragrant, and a hero will be brave.
Victory is majestic, death is full of momentum.
After experiencing everything in the world, I return home and ride on the carriage.
I asked with a smile if I could get an extra seat? The official didn’t care if I didn’t have money.
…
Just as Yi Xifeng was blowing the river wind alone on the river and heading towards Luo Yun Kingdom, Xiaoyuan Academy on Xiaoyuan Sea welcomed several new guests.
Xiaoyuan Academy has many disciples. After all, it is a top second-rate sect. A small island in the middle of the lake naturally cannot accommodate so many people. Therefore, in Xiaoyuan Academy, only the inner disciples can enter the lake island to study, while the outer sect
Disciples or registered disciples can only be around the lakeside.
Although Xiaoyuanhai is called the sea, it is actually a huge lake, so the lakeside coast has a wide enough area. Let alone a second-rate sect, even if two super first-rate sects are moved to the lakeside coast of Xiaoyuanhai
, they can all be held.
These people are dressed differently from ordinary Luoyun people. They wear wide sleeves and the hats on their heads are also wrapped with long scarves. Moreover, these people's skin color is darker, but they are not like people who have been living on the water all year round. At first glance, they look like they have been living on the water all year round.
People who have experienced the baptism of sunbathing.
Xiaoyuan Academy had obviously received the notice in advance, and Liang Shozuo led a group of inner disciples of the academy to the dock to greet a few people.
Among them, a tall and slender young man followed the leader Liang. Judging from his attire, he was also a student. The reason why he stood out in the crowd was because the leader Liang who led the team this time always kept coming from time to time.
I whispered a few words to this young man, and secondly, it was because of his appearance, tall nose, and deep eyes, he looked very heroic.
"Lin Lei, the special envoy from the Western Regions who came this time is mainly to communicate with the water transportation of Qingchuan County. I remember that you are responsible for communicating with the Feng Shui Gang on this matter, right?" The leader, Liang Shouzuo, is a tall, thin, middle-aged man.
, his face looks very serious, but he always speaks slowly.
And the young man following him was Lin Lei five years later. The once gloomy boy with a hooked nose has now gradually opened up. The originally tall nose now makes his facial features more three-dimensional.
The original gloominess that was inconsistent with his age has turned into a faint melancholy temperament as he gets older. Compared to five years ago, Lin Lei has indeed become more relaxed.
"It's already been explained!" Lin Lei replied simply and clearly.
"Well, we must communicate more. It will be bad if we lose etiquette."
"It's already been explained!" the young man replied again.
"Of course, if the other party's requirements are too harsh, we will not accommodate them without any bottom line. We will still refuse if we should."
"It's already been explained!" Lin Lei's expression did not change at all.
"Well, that's good, oh, by the way..."
…
Jiujiu chased Wenjiu. While Liang Shouzuo was chattering, several people from the Western Region countries finally landed on the island in the middle of the lake.
"I didn't expect that there are such big lakes in the Eastern countries. It's really amazing!" The person standing on the far left of these people said in a deep voice. From her voice, she should be a young man.
girl.
"Wu Li, come with us to Luo Yun Kingdom this time, you want to listen and see more. Luo Yun Kingdom is a recognized holy land of Confucianism, and Xiaoyuan Academy is known as the best academy in the world!" The leading man said in a deep voice to the masked girl beside him.
Said, obviously she is Wu Li.
The reason why girls cover their faces is not because of their personality like Li Xintian, but because of the customs of the Western Regions. Girls who have not left the court must cover their faces with gauze, and only after they get married can their faces not be covered up.
The girl blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Before I came here, I heard Chengcheng say it! Haha, he said there are many of his friends here! I will have to get to know him in a while."
When the leader of the old man heard this, he nodded with a smile and said: "Oh, are you Xiao Qi's friend? Haha, you really need to get to know him. After all, for such an outstanding young man, I'm afraid his friends are no different."
The few people just walked out of the cabin while chatting. What was waiting for them at the dock was none other than Liang Xinhuai and Liang's group. Of course, Lin Lei was also casually in the team.
