The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
Changlefang is located in the downtown area of the city, and it is one of Qingyangmen's properties in Yecheng. Usually, this Changle Square is just doing some singing and dancing business for fun. Although there are many guests during the day, they are still not as many as at night.
But today, it was only after noon, and the gate of Changle Square was already crowded with people, it could be said that it was a bustling crowd.
Unknowing neighbors couldn't help being curious after seeing passers-by, so they stepped forward to inquire about it.
"Don't you all know this? Today is Qingyangmen's day to recruit relatives for the Poison Doctor Competition!"
After hearing the explanations from the onlookers, passers-by realized belatedly that the arena at the gate of Changlefang was for martial arts competitions to recruit relatives!
As a result, the passing pedestrians stopped one after another, stopping to watch the competition on the ring.
The two knights in the arena were still gesticulating with each other. For those passers-by who don't know martial arts, they can't see the way. Watching it with gusto.
It's still early now, and those who are determined to win will not go up so early. Otherwise, if you go up early, you will be exhausted at the end of the fight. Wouldn't it be easy for you to be eliminated by then
Therefore, that wonderful duel will probably be left behind.
As time passed, more and more people watched in front of Changle Square, and the fights on the ring became more and more delicate.
Unlike those who often lose their lives in fighting and killing, this martial arts contest to recruit relatives, but it can only be ordered, even if you lose, you will not lose your life. If one person loses, the next person will continue to replace him and continue to compete with the remaining winners. Those who come and go like this, the skills of those who stay behind must be higher than those of the original ones.
"Did you see that the one who won three games in a row in the arena is the well-known young master in Tsing Yi. How about it, are you satisfied?"
Facing the arena at the gate of Changlefang is the three-storey attic across the street from Changlefang.
Standing on the corridor facing the ring on the second floor of the attic, you can have a panoramic view of the scenery below.
This is also the site of Changle Square. Usually, this pavilion is the best place to watch the song and dance performances in Changle Square. Now that the arena is set up at the entrance of Changle Square, this attic is naturally the best place to watch the competition at.
Those who can stand on this corridor to watch the competition today are all from the Qingyangmen family.
And the one who asked this question was the old lady standing in the middle of the corridor.
That young man in Tsing Yi has a good name, good looks, a clean family background, and decent martial arts. Although he is not a son of a famous family, he can be regarded as a good home.
Unexpectedly, after hearing what she said, Gu Qingyin who was brought by her side just glanced lightly at the person on the ring, and replied softly: "That's all."
The old lady frowned, and her face, which was already without a smile, looked a little more serious.
Seeing this, He Zhengde, who was standing on the other side of the old lady, actually tried to persuade him: "Mother, don't worry, most of the young talents in the Jianghu have already come, and after all, we can find a suitable person." of."
He Xiaolian, who was standing by the side, just glanced at Gu Qingyin with a little worry when she heard the words, but she didn't dare to interrupt, and silently turned her head to look at the situation on the ring. On the contrary, the third young master who was standing beside her leaned close to her ear and murmured in a low voice: "She is the only one who dares to contradict grandma. If it were us, we would definitely not dare to say a word. "
He Xiaolian slapped her elbow, knocked her third brother away, and said in disgust: "You talk too much, shut up and watch your show honestly!"
Meng Muxin glanced at them indifferently, but continued to look down without making a sound.
"Young Master Tsing Yi really lives up to his reputation. I never thought that this glazed fan could force three young heroes back one after another!"
It was the old butler of the He family who stayed by the ring to preside over the overall situation. After he raised his voice and praised him, he stepped onto the ring and looked at the onlookers. The young hero wants to come up to challenge?"
The voice fell, and there were only a few rustling sounds. Although many people were whispering about the battle just now, no one stepped onto the stage immediately.
After all, this young man in Tsing Yi has already won three people in a row, and his strength cannot be underestimated.
"If no one comes up again, today's winner will be Young Master Tsing Yi."
The butler smiled, and pointed to the red silk on the shelf next to the confident young man in Tsing Yi, "When the time comes, you only need to take this red silk and walk across to our lady In the attic where we are, if you deliver this red silk to our young lady, you will become the son-in-law of our Qingyang Sect."
In this world, there are always people who climb the dragon and attach the phoenix.
The young man in Tsing Yi couldn't hide his joy, he was about to go to fetch the red silk when he was interrupted by someone's voice.
"etc!"
Yun Yifei, who had been standing quietly among the crowd for a long time, finally couldn't hold back his cry. He tightened the sword in his hand, and only turned his head to look in Gu Qingyin's direction. He didn't hesitate anymore, and went straight on stage.
"I'm going down to Yun Yifei in Feiyun Villa, please give me your advice, my lord."
Tsk, you just broke your engagement with the fourth lady of Qingyangmen, and you're here to marry the second lady who just returned home
It's interesting.
Ignoring the gossip below, Yun Yifei flicked his long sword, and rushed up with stacked steps, fighting with the young man in Tsing Yifei.
"Yun Yifei is here too. I heard that he canceled the engagement with Xiaolian because of you. Tsk, to you, he is an infatuated child. What, to him , are you satisfied?"
The old lady turned to Gu Qingyin again.
This time, Gu Qingyin gave He Xiaolian a sideways look, and then responded indifferently: "Didn't it be agreed, even if you win, you have to be close to me to marry me."
Hearing this, He Zhengde had already looked towards her, and said quietly: "Girl, do you think we don't know what's on your mind? Yun Yifei is from Feiyun Villa. We are not good at explaining to Feiyun Villa that we were poisoned to death by you, don't do such irrational things."
Gu Qingyin froze for a moment, then looked at He Zhengde expressionlessly.
"Now that I know it, why did I agree to my request? No matter who it is, if they die here at my hands, those people's debts will be settled at the Qingyang Gate."
Gu Qingyin's attitude towards him has always been like this when he is not in front of others. He Zhengde had long been used to her indifferent attitude, and he sighed a little before he said helplessly: "You child, really... don't think us so badly? Anyway, we don't care We are all a family, after all, we will not harm you. My mother and I just want to find a good husband for you. After all, if a scandal like that night is spread, you are a girl... "
"Enough! Don't mention that again!"
The old lady sneered and interrupted He Zhengde's next words.
Huh, that night? A scandal like that
The three brothers and sisters who were accompanied by the tip of their ears but didn't know the truth of the matter were taken aback by the scolding, so they had to put away their curiosity silently, and didn't dare to ask a word.
After being mentioned by He Zhengde, Gu Qingyin confirmed her guess. Although she had already guessed this before, but at the moment when He Zhengde brought it up, she still couldn't help the sudden shame, and her face turned red and white.
Well, it really was because of what happened that night that they couldn't wait to find a marriage for themselves.
Meng Muxin rubbed the center of his brows wearily, sure enough, he shouldn't have indulged that child so much back then, it's all right now, a night of fun has brought even greater trouble.
"I don't care how noisy you are, today, you have to choose a good husband for me. If there is no one you like, then you can choose the most pleasing one for me. You are not young, This is going to happen in person. Besides, you are also a smart person, you should know that since you have done such a thing with great fanfare, I will not let you mess around with this kind of thing again." Thinking of that After this incident, the old lady's complexion became even more ugly, she moved closer to Gu Qingyin, and continued to press her voice in her ear: "Don't forget what you promised me, if I don't want you to work hard If you ruin everything, don't kill me today! I don't have any demands today, as long as you can choose a young man to marry with peace of mind, I won't care about you. As long as, as long as you don't Just do something unethical."
The old lady's complexion was not good, and Gu Qingyin's complexion was not good either.
Seeing the suppressed anger in Gu Qingyin's eyes, the old lady didn't care too much about her, but in front of her, and with a voice she could hear, she confessed to He Zhengde next to her: "If she can be good today, Pick a young lady, and give her the key to the dungeon."
Hearing this, He Zhengde was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said: "Mother, this is..."
"No need to say much, I have made up my mind."
The old lady tightened her grip on the leading crutch in her hand, and then glanced back at Gu Qingyin.
The meaning of that glance is unclear.
There seemed to be disappointment, helplessness, regret, and a hint of compromise.
"She wants it so hard, then give it to her. As long as, as long as she can find a young man."
He Zhengde came out with an illness this time, and his bloodless face became a little paler after the old lady said this.
He gritted his teeth, no matter how unwilling he was, he finally answered "Yes".
Then, he said to Gu Qingyin who was stunned for a moment: "Now you can always rest assured? Listen to grandma carefully, and find a young man with peace of mind. We are a family, and there are some things, don't always listen to outsiders Provocation. When you get married with peace of mind, I will give you everything you want!"
The whispered conversation of the three of them didn't last long before it was interrupted by He Ziqi's exclamation.
"Oh my god, is this Yun Yifei going to die!"
Following He Ziqi's exclamation, the three who were talking quietly noticed the situation on the ring.
Injuring eight hundred enemies and destroying one thousand is probably talking about Yun Yifei's current situation.
He exploited his key acupoints and knocked down the opponent in front of him with that blow. Although he won, his situation was not much better.
This was already the third match he had won after beating Young Master Tsing Yi.
The three brothers and sisters looked at the situation below with great interest, and sighed with emotion: "Tsk, this guy is really desperate, he is really infatuated."
He Xiaolian secretly turned her head to look at Gu Qingyin, but unfortunately that person was still indifferent, still watching with a blank expression.
Hey, what a pity for Yun Yifei's infatuation.
After hesitating for a while, He Xiaolian took a few steps back, whispered a few words to the guards waiting inside, and then went back to the corridor.
After that, Yun Yifei continued to compete with others, and fought four times in a row. The opponents were all people who should not be underestimated. No matter how exquisite Ren Yun Yifei's swordsmanship was, he still couldn't handle the loss of inner strength. Although Yun Yifei was lucky enough to win the fourth round, but he was already covered with scars.
When the fifth opponent entered the field, Yun Yifei was already ready to fight hard. Unexpectedly, the young hero shook his head before even offering his sword, and sighed: "You are like this, I can't do more than ten moves under my hands, you'd better get down early, lest I accidentally hurt you. "
"Even so, Yun must fight hard!"
"you… "
Seeing Yun Yifei's precarious appearance and insisting on standing up, the man couldn't help asking: "Brother Yun, why is he so persistent? If you continue to use force, your injury will hurt your foundation!"
Hearing this, Yun Yifei just looked up at Gu Qingyin's direction, and smiled bitterly: "Then I won't go down either. This is my only chance."
Following Yun Yifei's gaze, the man seemed to understand what Yun Yifei was doing.
The people who come here today, either for fame, or for profit, or for sex, most of them have some other thoughts.
But for someone as persistent as Yun Yifei, maybe it's because of love
"That's all, that's all."
The man shook his head sympathetically, and said: "Brother Yun is affectionate, and I admire you. If you fight with you, it will be obvious that I am taking advantage of others, and that is really a villainous act. I don't want to be such a villain People's tricks. Today, let's take it as my defeat without a fight. I am convinced of your defeat because of your affection. If there is a chance, I'd better wait until Brother Yun recovers someday, and then I will come to discuss with you. Second Miss If I can marry you, it can be regarded as marrying my beloved."
With a few words, he gave up this competition, allowing Yun Yifei to securely win the fifth round.
Because of his words, many knights below got tangled up.
Now that Yun Yifei was in this situation, anyone with a little skill could defeat him, but once he was told by that person, they didn't have the nerve to go up and do such villainous deeds under the watchful eyes of everyone.
But if this scarred person wins the competition, they will be extremely unwilling.
The man came up, said a few words, and then walked down, but before he jumped off the ring, a gust of wind hit his ear.
Even if he dodged in time, he still couldn't protect the strands of broken hair.
"Heh, you so-called upright people know all about benevolence, righteousness and morality."
When the cold female voice came, the man touched his remaining ear with lingering fear.
Turning around, he saw that a Yanling saber was being inserted obliquely into the red carpet of the arena, with a cold light.
The man trembled involuntarily.
But after a while, the owner of that voice had already stepped out of the air and stood firmly on the ring.
Seeing her appear, the expressions of the people present were different.
I saw that the woman opened her hand a little, and she had already grasped the dangling handle of the knife on the ring, and pulled it out effortlessly.
When the man looked at her, he happened to meet her cold gaze, and unexpectedly felt a little fear for no reason.
It was too thrilling to attribute that fear to the surprise attack of this man just now, and the man dared to pretend to be brave and sneered: "I don't know who the girl is? This is a ring for martial arts competitions, it's not like you, a girl, can play around. place!"
"Heh, martial arts competition to recruit relatives?"
The visitor's smile became colder and colder, showing a murderous look all over his body.
"You are here vying to marry my wife, have you asked my opinion?"
