When the rooster crowed in the morning, the old man was dancing his sword in the yard.
He was pampered and spoiled since he was a child, and he never touched the ground before the age of five, so naturally he would not learn how to dance a sword after sleeping.
At this moment, there was a martial arts master teaching beside him, "Master Hou, you need to sink your feet even more, yes, the lower the better."
"Your movement is very good, but I didn't teach it, so don't practice it too badly."
After finishing the sword dance, the old man lightly retracted the sword, and let out a breath of foul air towards the slowly rising sun.
Master Wu was a little stunned by his smooth and flowing sword retraction movements. If it wasn't for Lian Jiazi, how could he do it so easily? Could it be that Master Hou has practiced it before
Didn't I hear that Master Hou usually studies the Fa with a fellow Taoist
Doubts are doubts, thinking of the silver taels in hand, Master Wu still boasted a few words.
Master Hou finished practicing martial arts, and his mood seemed to be much better, so he turned his head and asked him, "Do you have a job in someone else's mansion, if not, stay in Hou's mansion in the future."
Originally, Master Wu, who was called over early in the morning before dawn, immediately perked up, and excitedly agreed without even thinking about it.
He has not been able to find a suitable job since he was kicked out of Prince Liang's Mansion last month. There are wives, children and old ladies at home. They would think that he was kicked out because his hands and feet were dirty. Even if he was recruited by the front foot to teach martial arts to the children of the family, he would be kicked out without hesitation after knowing it later.
Thinking of this, the happy expression on Master Wu's face darkened, and he respectfully saluted Wei Ming, "Master Hou, before I come down, I was in Prince Liang's residence, if you don't mind..."
"oh?"
Wei Mingyan, who was wearing a crisp robe, raised his eyebrows, "Why are you no longer in Prince Liang's mansion?"
Master Wu gritted his teeth, his face was green and white, and he told the truth.
He was originally an orphan, but because of his good bones, he was taken home by his master to teach martial arts when he was begging on the street. to teach.
All the master's savings were left to him, and he also had Yueyin himself, so he took the master's mother home to take care of him. Under her management, he soon married his wife and gave birth to two sons.
Everything was fine at first, but just last month, because the youngest young master in the mansion insisted on dragging him to practice till night, Master Wu had to stay in Prince Liang's mansion for one night, because the next day happened to be Xiu Mu, and he I got up early again, and walked back through the back door before it was very bright. On the way, I met two servants who were carrying some kind of goods and went forward. I didn't care, but when I went again, I was kicked out.
The reason is that he stole a jade ring from the young master that night when he lived in Prince Liang's mansion.
Master Wu couldn't argue with anything, especially for some unknown reason, the yamen servants from Prince Liang's mansion actually found a jade ring in their house. He was desperate for his sin, when news suddenly came from Prince Liang's residence, saying that the concubine was kind, she knew about this matter, and she didn't care about him, so Master Wu saved his life.
"Your Majesty, I can guarantee you with my head. I will act upright and sit upright, and I will never do such a thing as a dog!"
Wei Mingyan listened thoughtfully, squinted slightly to look at Master Wu who was looking at him nervously, and suddenly said, "You go home."
Master Wu's face immediately turned pale.
Sure enough, no one would believe him
But what I heard was that he was a grandfather, but he still looked at the unwrinkled Hou Ye and said, "There is black air between your brows, and the black air is going east. It is a disaster for your wife and children at home. You should go home first." Go and guard them."
Master Wu: "..."
It has long been heard that Hou Ye studied Taoism with a sorcerer, and it turned out that he studied the number of faces.
He didn't really believe it, but he had just promised to let him work in the mansion, if he expressed his disbelief so bluntly, wouldn't he be clearly offending people
Master Wu saluted, pretended to believe and left.
When Master Wei came, he happened to meet such a stranger as he came out of his father's yard, looked at Master Wu's back in doubt, and entered the yard with a yawn.
Wei Mingyan was dancing with his sword again, his slow movements seemed harmless, his back was facing Mr. Wei, but it seemed that he had eyes behind him, while dancing the sword, he said lightly, "O rare guest. "
Master Wei blushed, he really didn't like coming to his father's side very much before.
He also had no choice, Mrs. Wei had been crying since she woke up, and when he went to comfort him, he said that his jade pendant was missing, and it was her little sister who came to see her.
Master Wei has never heard of a little sister, but it does not prevent him from understanding the fact that this little sister is a ghost. After going through such a scene last night, and being cried by his wife again, all the hairs on his back stood on end.
But it just happened to be such a coincidence that the eldest son just came to greet them, and after seeing his mother crying so miserably, his eyes suddenly turned wrong when he looked at Master Wei.
He is the eldest grandson of the mansion, so he must not hide any news from him. Ever since he heard that his father was punished by his grandfather to kneel down, he has been inquiring about it. After finally finding out that his grandfather punished him because his father had a woman outside, his father came here in a hurry. As a result, such a scene was seen.
Master Wei couldn't argue with anything, wanted to explain but couldn't bear to explain to his son, and Mrs. Wei suspected that she had encountered a ghost, so she rushed to ask her father for help.
"Don't be so alarmed."
The old man swung the sword in his hand slowly, without paying any attention to the old man Wei from the beginning to the end, "That piece of jade was given to her by your wife."
It's okay if he didn't say anything, but when he said it, Master Wei's suspicion became a fact, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead immediately, "Father, this, this, this..."
"The weather is fine today, come and teach you martial arts for my father."
Being manipulated like a wooden man, he stood opposite the old man. Master Wei looked at the sword in his father's hand, and then looked down at his own empty hands, with a bewildered expression on his face.
"Father, don't you practice martial arts?"
"That's right."
The old man raised the sword in his hand, "Now, I will stab you with the sword for my father, and you should avoid it."
Master Wei: "... what? But I... ah!!"
Before Master Wei finished speaking, the sharp sword stabbed at him with precision. He screamed and ran back quickly, dodging the sword stabbed by his father.
Just after running two steps, the back of the neck was caught.
Behind him is the old man's eyes that hate iron and steel, "Why are you running if my father asked you to block it?"
In the instant of life and death, Master Wei was about to pee in fright.
He answered tremblingly, fearing that his father would stab him with a sword if he failed to answer, "Father, father... Aren't we practicing martial arts? You should give your son a sword..."
"Hey..." The father let out a long breath.
"Ziqing, I would like to give you a sword as a father, but your salary is too low, and life in the house is so difficult, where can I sell you another sword?"
Although Master Wei was frightened, his IQ has not dropped, and he said cautiously, "Now go to Madam to buy it with money..."
"shut up!"
The old man's roar frightened the old man so that he stood stiffly on the spot.
Wei Mingyan's face was full of disgust, "You are an imposing seven-foot man, and you actually want to take money from your wife. Are you worthy of me and your wife?"
Looking at the pain in his father's eyes, Master Wei lowered his head in shame, "Father, I'm sorry..."
"It's good to know you're wrong."
The old man, who looked a little younger than Master Wei, patted his son on the shoulder with satisfaction, "Come on, let's continue practicing."
"When will you be able to avoid the sword of the father, the father will tell you a secret."
secret!
Master Wei, who had been listless just now, immediately regained his energy.
Could it be that it is the father's ability
Although there was still some timidity in his heart, since he had no choice, Master Wei practiced honestly.
He is his own, tiger venom still eats babies, so there should be no danger... right
Soon, he discovered that although his father's moves were ferocious, he used the same template all the time, and he hadn't changed much at all.
Master Wei observed carefully several times, and the last time, he not only dodged the stabbing sword, but also kicked the sword away.
-clang!
The sword was inserted directly into the ground.
Master Wei was a little excited, he couldn't wait to look at the old man, "Father, the son can escape!"
"Okay, father, I will tell you this secret that is related to the life and death of our mansion."
Wei Mingyan looked serious, took his son out of the yard, walked towards the gate, and said in a dignified tone, "I always thought you were too young, so I didn't tell you anything, Ziqing, do you really feel Have you grown up enough to handle everything?"
Master Wei was both excited and speculative, but he looked at his father looking at him, and finally he was firm and nodded.
He can accept anything.
The father and son walked out of the Hou Mansion. Wei Mingyan was silent all the way, as if he didn't know how to tell his son this big secret.
The more he was like this, the faster Master Wei's heart beat.
He could imagine that this matter must be beyond his imagination.
Because he was always guessing, Master Wei didn't notice that he was led by his father through the streets and alleys, and finally arrived at a lively street.
Wei Mingyan glanced at the man on the street who was dressed as a nobleman and was guarded by servants, until he saw him walking in front of the small vendor, holding a sachet to look at, but the small vendor's hand quietly reached out to him. left side.
He sighed, "The secret is..."
Master Wei raised his heart, and finally, finally, he was going to speak.
"The mansion doesn't have much money anymore, Ziqing, you have to work hard to get promoted and earn money for your father."
"I believe you can do it for the father, right?"
A cold light flashed, Wei Mingyan stretched out his hand directly, and pushed his bewildered son out.
Master Wei staggered a few steps and stood firm. As soon as his feet landed, he saw a sword stabbing towards him, and immediately dodged reflexively.
He dodged once, and the man stabbed him a second time. Looking at the familiar moves, Master Wei calmly, very skillfully dodged again, and kicked him.
"clang-"
Master Wei didn't realize until the set of moves was done smoothly and the sword was stuck on the ground. Isn't this the move that his father used just now
But the person who was kicked away with the sword and dressed as a commoner suddenly rushed up again, attacking with bare hands, Master Wei was so frightened that he retreated again and again, but in the eyes of others, he dodged calmly.
Immediately, two people dressed as servants came out of the group whose back was turned to. After a fight, they pressed the guy who was holding a sword to stab someone to the ground.
The man's face was on the ground, and he was still swearing, "Emperor Dog, you...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Mouth is gagged.
From the beginning to the end of the incident, there was not even a minute. Master Wei was completely reflexive. Looking at this scene now, he was completely dumbfounded.
What
what happened
Behind him, the luxuriously dressed man stretched out his hand to block the servant who was about to step forward, and thanked Master Wei, "Thank you chivalrous man for your rescue."
He left the palace today on a whim, and he didn't bring many people with him, just now that person rushed out again, if Master Wei hadn't rushed out suddenly to block him, he would have suffered some injuries today.
Master Wei looked blankly at the person in front of him, "No, no thanks."
So familiar.
Did you see it on the dragon chair last time
