The prefect, surrounded by his personal guards, rode a tall horse to the center of the square. wWW, QuanBen-XiaoShuo, com were quite satisfied to see the crowds of martial arts boys below.
"Everyone, I am here to welcome everyone. Secondly, I am also here to encourage you to go strong. When you go to the Chimu King's territory, you represent not only individuals and your family, but also your state. The county represents the future of our Nanyun Prefecture. As a token of my sincerity, martial boys from other counties can stay in any inn during their stay in Nanyun Prefecture for the next three days, with free food and lodging, and public subsidies from the prefecture!"
No one who can come here to sign up for the trial is not from a noble family. Ordinarily, everyone can afford the cost of food and accommodation.
But the prefect's words mean more than just a little food and lodging expenses.
That represents a kind of attention, a kind of treatment that only top-grade martial arts boys can enjoy.
When a superior comes, it is natural that he must give a lecture and an encouragement. The martial arts boys nodded repeatedly after hearing this. They all felt that the prefect valued it so much, so how could there be any reason to try their best
Finally, the prefect's lecture was over, and it was time for lunch. Disband on the spot.
As soon as the disbandment was announced, the martial arts boys from each county invited their friends and began to form a group.
Qin Wushuang didn't want to get too involved in right and wrong. On this point, Da Xiyang and he were of the same mind.
Yun Qingyan likes to be lively, but she has no choice but to be alone and can only obey the majority.
…
After lunch, the three of them went back to their rooms, and everything was fine.
Suddenly there were footsteps, and then there was a knock on the door: "Excuse me, is Master Qin of Luojiang County here?"
When the door opened, there was a man who looked like a servant standing outside the door. He looked respectful and asked with a smile: "Is this Mr. Qin?"
"It's me, you?"
"I am the steward of the Ximen Grand Clan. There is an invitation here, which was written by my family's master himself. I asked him to deliver it to Mr. Qin, inviting you to come to my mansion to have a drink and listen to a play, so that we can cool off the summer heat together."
After saying that, he respectfully handed over a beautifully wrapped invitation.
Qin Wushuang's expression was indifferent, without even a glance, he said calmly: "Take it back."
"Take it back?" The servant was stunned.
"Yes, take it back."
"Master Qin, are you going? You have to take it over and have a look?"
Qin Wushuang turned around and asked, "Is it the Ximen clan who wants to see me?"
"Yes, that's what my family leader means."
"I don't want to see the Ximen clan leader, right?"
"No." The man was stunned, but still answered truthfully.
"Since it's not me who wants to see him, but he who wants to see me. Either he comes to visit me, or at least he has to come and invite me in person. Just reply to your family boss according to my wishes."
Qin Wushuang didn't bother to talk to his servant. The Ximen clan leader was playing tricks of power and sent a servant to invite people. It was obvious that he deliberately lowered Qin Wushuang's figure. It was strange that Qin Wushuang was willing to go.
The servant was stunned for a moment, and then he had to bow out respectfully: "In this case, I will go back and report to the lord, asking for his instructions."
…
In the Ximen Palace, the servant quickly brought back Qin Wushuang's intention.
The head of the Ximen clan has a purple beard and looks extraordinary. Beside him, eight people stood. The four on the left are all his direct children, the four on the right, two are the Supreme Elders of the Ximen Clan, and the remaining two are gold medal thugs, the number one and number two among the Cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles.
Among the direct children, Ximen Qian was the oldest, his face was a little distorted, and he said bitterly: "This kid is still so good at putting on a show."
Then he turned to Ximen Xing behind him and said, "Lao San, in the central square today, is this guy deliberately trying to show off again?"
XiMen
Ximen Yan on the side complained: "Brother, third brother, I am not interested in this Qin Wushuang or anything. I just want to know, is the daughter of the wealthy Qin family really close to Da Ximing?"
Ximen Xing cannot answer this question. Ximen Qian, however, added fuel to the fire and said, "Aren't we very close? When we are in pairs, we, the Ximen clan, are treated as if they are nothing."
Ximen Qian's exaggeration was meant to instigate Ximen Yan. If you instigate Ximen Yan, you can arouse your father's emotions. Because my father has always doted on this second sister.
As expected, Ximen Yan shook her father's arm: "Dad, this marriage was promised by you and Da Xiheng personally. Now the Da Xi family clearly wants to default on the debt. What do you think we should do about this?"
The master of Ximen Da Val, his famous name is Ximen Yu. He became famous at a young age, joined the army at an early age, and made great military exploits. In the family selection process, he defeated other heroes and won the right to inherit the clan leader.
Twenty-four years after taking over Ximen Daval, Ximen Daval has become very prosperous and promoted to one of the "Twelve Major Valve" in the country. It can be said that he has made great contributions.
Such a hero-level figure will naturally not be disturbed by his son-daughter attitude.
After pondering for a moment, he asked: "Two elders and two protectors. Although this boy is young, he knows how to advance and retreat. Knowing that I sent my subordinates to invite him, I will join his army. He asked me to invite him personally. In turn, join my army. What do you think, should I go to see you? Or not?"
"The Valve Master, think twice. He is just a newly promoted son of a wealthy family. Even if he has some adventures, he is not qualified to stand up in front of the Valve Master. If the Valve Master really wants to see him, asking the next generation to invite him is enough. Save face."
"I agree with the First Elder. The leader of a powerful family goes to meet a young man from a wealthy family. There is no precedent for this kind of thing. If word spreads, I might lose face, the great family of Ximen."
This is the direct descendant of the Ximen clan. He has traditional and conservative thinking, is stuck in his own ways, and attaches great importance to family status.
The leader of the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles, the Great Protector, is an old man with gray hair and a childlike face. He smiled and said: "Although I have never met the Qin family son, judging from the information fed back by the second brother, this son is actually It’s worth seeing the Valve Master. Since you want to see me, why bother with your family status?”
In the Ximen Clan, the top three figures of the Cold-Blooded Thirteen Eagles have a very transcendent status and can be equal to the family elders. Therefore, when the great protector speaks, he does not need to deliberately agree with the family elders, but is qualified to speak out.
The second protector beside him had dealt with Qin Wushuang in Luojiang County and had seen Qin Wushuang's methods. With his eighth-level strength in the True Martial Realm, he did not dare to claim victory. The information he fed back was very cautious.
At this time, hearing what the Great Protector said, he nodded in agreement.
Ximenyu stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "The two elders advocated not seeing each other, and the two guardians advocated being eclectic. Each has his own reasons. This is difficult to handle."
The four people hurriedly said: "Everything depends on the decision of the Valve Master."
"Is it up to me to decide?" Ximenyu repeated with a smile.
"The Valve Master is the spokesperson for me, the Ximen Grand Valve, so we will have no objections." The four people expressed their opinions hurriedly.
"Okay, if that's the case, then I, the lord, will go meet the Qin family and see how evil the monsters in Luojiang County are."
Ximen Qian and Ximen Yan were overjoyed when they heard that their father had taken action.
Especially Ximen Yan, shouted: "Father, teach that boy a lesson. You must let him know who is the authority in Nanyun Province."
Ximenyu smiled and didn't answer, and went out casually.
Quietly, he arrived at the inn where Qin Wushuang was staying. As he was turning around the corridor, he suddenly saw a young man standing in the courtyard, staring intently at the rockery fountain in the courtyard.
"Master Ximen?" The young man said leisurely, it was Qin Wushuang.
"Qin Wushuang?" Ximen Yu was secretly surprised. Before he turned around the corridor, he didn't notice anyone standing in the courtyard at all.
If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, it would be hard for him to believe that this Qin family member had actually reached this level of practice. It was clearly a state where the spirit and the energy were in harmony, and the spirit was nothing more than the self-determined state of the energy.
To put it simply, it is a landscape that is completely integrated into the environment in which it is based. There is no self or object, and humans and nature have become the same part of the landscape.
You must know that Ximen Yu is one of the few masters in the Akagi Kingdom, a ninth-level master of the True Martial Realm. In the Akagi Kingdom, the number of people who dare to defeat him will never exceed the number on one finger.
But such a great master had no warning in advance.
"I've been waiting for you for a while." Qin Wushuang spoke again.
"You know I'm coming?" Ximenyu felt that he was at a disadvantage in the first step, and that the other party took advantage of him in the second and third steps.
"You will definitely come." Qin Wushuang suddenly smiled mysteriously, turned his body like a swallow in the air, and shouted softly, "Come with me."
When the voice fell, the person had fallen outside the courtyard wall, flying away.
