Mo Chen had been taking care of the human relations for Master very early on. Although he is not very old, nor does he have any reputation, but he is Li Fulin's first disciple after all, and his status as the first disciple gives him this responsibility and confidence.
Right now, Huiliu Mountain is being coveted by others, and strangers come to pay their respects, making people suspect that their intentions are impure.
"Have you told them that Master is not on the mountain now?"
"Of course I said it, but someone said that it's the same to see the elder brother."
This makes a little sense.
Mo Chen pondered for a moment: "Then I'll see you."
Jiang Fan was very worried: "Brother, I'm afraid the person who came here is not kind."
"Don't worry."
Mo Chen's calmness made Jiang Fan calm down.
That's right, with the senior brother around, what is there to be afraid of? Even the people who came that night didn't ask for favors, did they? He just ran away from the sorcerer who pretended to be Lin Yan, and the others were all killed by the sword.
Besides, Huiliu Mountain is not easy to mess with. Those people really have different intentions, so don't even think about running wild on Huiliu Mountain.
"Okay then, I invite guests to the welcoming booth next to the main hall."
Mo Chen nodded slightly: "I'll be there soon."
Linglong taught Xiaodong a sword technique. She knew that she had a bad temper, so she performed it once first, deliberately slowed down the movement so that Xiaodong could see it clearly, and then asked Xiaodong to practice it twice with her. But when she asked Xiaodong to practice by herself, she still couldn't hold back, seeing his posture, she wanted to go up and practice for him by herself, so as not to worry about it.
Seeing Jiang Fan leading the people into the welcoming pavilion from a distance, Linglong was a little puzzled, when two outer disciples passed by with tea, Linglong beckoned them away.
"What kind of tea are you making? Are there any guests?"
The outer disciple was very respectful to Linglong, the senior sister, and stopped to reply: "Yes, I heard from senior brother that he is from the Burial Sword Valley."
Not being respectful is okay. If it offends the senior and third senior brothers, they might reprimand them, but that's fine. But if senior sister Linglong is offended, she can do it right away!
Linglong frowned: "The Burial Sword Valley?"
She didn't remember any contact with Burial Sword Valley.
As for Burial Sword Valley, it used to be famous for a while, although it is not as beautiful as it used to be, but the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, so it is still more stylish than Huiliu Mountain.
But what is Burial Sword Valley sending people here at this moment
Linglong couldn't sit still anymore, so she told Xiaodong, "Practice yourself and don't be lazy." She went to the main hall by herself.
She couldn't enter the welcoming booth, but there was a bamboo forest behind the welcoming booth, so hiding someone would be invisible.
She didn't want to spy on something, but she was worried. In case the visitor is unkind, she can somewhat help the elder brother by being in front of her.
Being far away, Linglong couldn't see clearly what was going on in the reception booth, so she saw that there should be two people coming, one looked younger and the other had a beard.
Jiang Fan took the tea tray and served tea to the two guests. Mo Chen said politely: "The two of you have come from a long way, and Huiliu Mountain has nothing to entertain you. This is Yunwu tea made by the teacher himself, brewed with spring water from the top of the mountain, please try it."
These two people revealed their intentions before coming up, and Mo Chen was not in a hurry.
Jiang Fan was by the side, and he always felt that these two people came here strangely.
If there is something important to say, it doesn't look like they are like this. If there is nothing important, why do you have to meet the elder brother
The older one is Elder Lu from Burial Sword Valley, who looks very gentle and refined. The person who came with him was Jin Mian, the direct disciple of the head of Jianjian Valley, who was not an unknown person.
Elder Lu is alright, Jin Mian sat down, hadn't finished his cup of tea, and had secretly looked at senior brother three times.
If it can't be seen that they are here for the elder brother, Jiang Fan will be considered a fool.
Is it possible...
Jiang Fan suddenly thought of Tan Jianmen's original plan.
Senior brother's talent is outstanding, and it is said that among the young students from all schools and factions, there are only three or five people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with senior senior brother. Among these three or five people, the one with the weakest background is the elder brother. After all, Huiliu Mountain can't compare with those famous schools with profound background. Many people have used the crooked tendons of poaching corners, and it is not only Tan Jianmen who want to use the trick of marriage to win people over.
This kind of thing is the most troublesome. I don't want to make the other party push forward like this, but the blunt rejection of all of them really hurts each other's harmony.
Over the past hundred years, Burial Sword Valley has gone from bad to worse, and the disciples are not as good as the next generation. Jiang Fan is not at all surprised that they will also take advantage of the senior brother.
Saying that the master is not there, it is the same to see the elder brother. Maybe they came because they saw the master was not there, and they were running for the senior brother, and they were satisfied with the master's absence, so it was convenient for them to do tricks.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan watched eagerly from the side, like a vicious beast guarding the treasure, and absolutely must not let the elder brother be deceived.
Jiang Fan was not the only one who thought this way, Linglong also thought so, and even a few outer disciples who knew about the guests thought so too.
Elder Lu looked at Mo Chen calmly.
He had heard about this genius master among the younger generation, but this was the first time he had seen it. Mo Chen's figure was tall and straight, when he welcomed them in just now, his steps were extraordinarily steady, not at all as flamboyant and impetuous as the young people nowadays.
After sitting down to take a closer look, even a person with such experience as Elder Lu also praised him in his heart, he looks so good.
Mo Chen's eyebrows are exceptionally well formed, his eyebrows are graceful and sparse, and his eyes are clear and energetic.
Elder Lu did not peek at him one after another like Jin Mian, after looking at him for a while, he calmly chatted with Mo Chen.
Even if they were chatting like this, the topic would always come back to Mo Chen.
Mo Chen himself felt it too.
The reason for Elder Lu's visit lies in Mo Chen himself.
What is inside and outside the words are all asking him. Ask about the date of birth, where is your hometown, past life and so on. Although it doesn't sound too abrupt to be caught in other courtesies, Mo Chen can still feel it.
The word of marriage has been mentioned a few years ago when he was getting famous, some were straightforward and said in person, some were more tactful and had to make some detours.
Is it possible that Burial Sword Valley also has this meaning
The look of Jin Mian brought by Elder Lu was too revealing.
The polite words came to an end, and Mo Chen said: "The master is traveling far away, and the date of return has not yet been set. Elder Lu is full of hospitality, but it's just a coincidence that he came. If you don't dislike Huiliu Mountain's poor hospitality, please stay for a light meal and stay at home When the master comes back, this junior will definitely report the matter truthfully, and pick an auspicious day to go to Burial Sword Valley to pay homage as a guest."
The words are decent, but Elder Lu can also hear that this is purely polite. If the hospitality is sincere, you should persuade the guests to stay on the mountain for a few days, and do the best of the landlord's friendship.
But Mo Chen couldn't find out that he was wrong at all. After all, there was no contact between the two factions before, and at most there was some oblique contact. Since there is no friendship, it is not rude for Mo Chen to say this. (to be continued)
