"Go!" While he was distressed, Ma Linglong giggled, turned her horse around and galloped away.
"General Ma, this …!" Xu Yong looked at Ma Tai-an awkwardly, with a pleading look in his eyes.
"What?!" Ma Tai-an grinned, but didn't answer. He just looked at Ma Linglong's back and shouted, "Aha, Miss has gone back. You idiots, hurry up and protect her. Don't let her suffer any more grievances!"
Before she finished her words, more than ten cavalrymen followed Ma Linglong like thunder. In the blink of an eye, only Xu Yong, Ma Tai-an, and Ma Tai-an were left on the wide official road.
"Elder Xu, thank you for today's matter. I'm leaving now. We didn't hear anything just now. Hahahaha …!"
"You …!" Xu Yong raised his hand and wanted to say something, but Ma Tai-an had already left like a gust of wind.
Xu Yong put down his right hand disappointedly and looked at Junior Leopard with a bitter smile. "Disciple, this time, we are in trouble that we can't get rid of!"
Junior Leopard's eyelids twitched and he sighed in his heart. Ma Linglong's words had caused the master and disciple, who had always wanted to take advantage of others, to be in big trouble.
It was just like eating half of a green insect. He wanted to vomit, but he couldn't.
Both of them looked terrible. The marriage between the Governor Mansion of Yunzhou and the Mingyi School was seen by the whole world, and it was said that the Great Jin imperial court was behind it. Therefore, although Lu Shaoyou met with obstacles when he proposed, Ma Tianchang still agreed to the marriage.
Once this matter was settled, Ma Linglong couldn't object. She had no right to refuse on this matter.
Wang She made a scene, but it was not because of Ma Linglong, but because of Tian Long Taoism. He wanted to show Tian Long Taoism's position. Everyone in the world thought so. No one would think that Ma Linglong had anything to do with the Chief of Tian Long Taoism. After all, the Governor Mansion and Tian Long Taoism had nothing to do with each other.
But today, Ma Linglong's words made things complicated.
Ma Linglong was not as simple as the daughter of the Governor's Mansion. At least, she was not what others thought. She was nothing but the daughter of the Governor's Mansion.
She had a strange relationship with Tian Long Taoism. Otherwise, she wouldn't have requested to go to Tian Long Mystic Mountain with Xu Yong and his disciple. After they were intercepted halfway, she asked Junior Leopard to pass a message to Lei Xu of Tian Long Mystic Mountain and gave Junior Leopard a jade pendant that allowed him to enter and exit Tian Long Mystic Mountain freely.
Big Brother Leixu!
This form of address was so intimate, so ambiguous!
In comparison, the words "little brother Zhou Bao" paled in comparison!
Who was Lei Xu?
As one of the three Chiefs of Tian Long Taoism, his status was equal to Wang She's. However, in the eyes of the martial arts world, he was more important than Wang She.
Wang She was only the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism. But he was not only the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism, but also the legitimate son of the Lei Family, one of the three big families of the Tian Long Taoism. He was gifted with the Divine Sense of Bloodline and was also the most popular candidate for the next Suzerain of the Tian Long Taoism.
They absolutely could not afford to offend such a person.
Big Brother
At the thought of such a title.
Whether it was Xu Yong or Junior Leopard, they couldn't help but shiver and break out in a cold sweat.
Both of them realized the seriousness of the matter at the same time.
Was he going to inform them?
If Lei Xu really had an affair with Ma Linglong, he would meddle in Lu Shaoyou's wedding and gather Wang She to bully Lu Shaoyou. That would be a big joke.
Whether it was the Mingyi School, Lu Shaoyou, or even the imperial court, they couldn't do anything to the Chief of Tian Long Taoism. However, they could do whatever they wanted to the Master and disciple who brought the message to Lei Xu!
What if I don't?
He couldn't pass Lei Xu!
Ma Linglong married Lu Shaoyou and the marriage was a success. It seemed that everyone was happy, but Ma Linglong was not happy. She said, "Oh, you didn't deliver the message I asked you to deliver, so I married Lu Shaoyou instead of Big Brother Lei Xu. Big Brother, for you and for me, you must vent your anger!"
If Lei Xu was a character who liked to vent his anger on others, the two of them would still be in trouble!
"Teacher! You are also a veteran in Jianghu. Is it really so difficult to be a hero in Jianghu? "
"This is not a problem of being a hero, nor is it a problem of being in Jianghu. This is called a bit of bad luck. You can't blame Jianghu for a bit of bad luck!" Xu Yong said expressionlessly.
"Then what should we do now?"
"What should we do? There is no way!" Xu Yong said helplessly. He urged the horse under him, "Let's go. Huayang City is in front of us. After Huayang City, there is still more than a hundred miles to go to Ningzhou City. Let me think about this matter. Anyway, there are still two years!"
"Yes!" Junior Leopard said softly.
"Jianghu is really unpredictable. We just walked for a few hundred miles and got involved in such a thing. It's really a bit of bad luck!"
… …
They didn't say anything along the way. Both of them had something on their minds and their expressions were a bit heavy.
After resting in Huayang City for a night, the two of them went straight to Ningzhou City.
Ningzhou City was the second largest city in Moyang County. Although it couldn't be compared with Qinlingjun City, it was also unusual and had a unique style.
Its geographical location was very strange. It was located in a mountain depression. It was originally a small mountain village with only a narrow path passing through it. Later, when Jin was founded, it was accidentally discovered that this was actually a shortcut from the border town of Yunzhou to the hinterland of Jin. Therefore, the city was built here and the narrow path was expanded. Gradually, the present Ningzhou City was formed. Because of its unique geographical location, the city's climate was also unique. It was also rich in a kind of tree called fragrant tree. This tree was evergreen all year round. Its bark emitted a strange fragrance which had the effect of calming the mind. When it was ground into powder, it could be made into various kinds of spices and sold all over the world. It was also the main industry of Ningzhou City. Therefore, there were many fragrant trees in and outside Ningzhou City.
On both sides of the official road leading to Ningzhou City, there were neat rows of fragrant trees, just like the trees along the road that Junior Leopard had seen in his previous life. From a distance, they could smell a strange fragrance coming from the trees. Riding on horseback, the master and the disciple smelled the fragrance. Gradually, the troubles in their stomachs disappeared.
"Ningzhou City is really good. And these fragrant trees, I don't know whether they can be planted in other places!"
"Don't count on it. The fragrant tree is a special product of Ningzhou City. When Jin was founded, the founder tried to transplant the fragrant tree to other places, but he didn't succeed. In the past hundreds of years, other people also tried to transplant the fragrant tree, but without exception, they all ended in failure. Therefore, later, people gradually gave up this idea."
Xu Yong knew his disciple's mind and said with a smile, "So, don't count on it!"
"I don't count on it so much!" Junior Leopard said, "I just have a feeling in my heart. Teacher, is Ningzhou City in front of us?"
"Yes!" Xu Yong looked at the city not far in front of him. His face finally had a smile, "We are almost there. Your Martial Uncle Wen's people have already reached the city gate!"
Martial Uncle Wen was the target of their visit this time, Wen Huayang.
Wen Huayang was a Level Four expert, born in Ningzhou City's Wen Family. This Wen Family wasn't ranked in the martial arts world, it was just a small family. However, when placed in Ningzhou City, it was a giant. It was one of the three big families in Wenzhou City. It controlled the entire Wenzhou City's salt and iron business, and had a very good cooperative relationship with the Wu Family.
Wen Huayang was the Wen Family's leader of this generation. When he was young, he knew Xu Yong, and they went through Jianghu together. Their relationship was very close.
The two of them entered Ningzhou City without much trouble. After passing through a few streets, they stopped in front of a tall and gorgeous mansion. There was a gatekeeper who entered to report.
"Blockhead Xu, you are finally here. I thought you would be a few days late!"
Not long after the gatekeeper entered, they heard a hearty laughter coming from the Hua Mansion. Then, the mansion door opened, and a strong old man in his fifties welcomed the two of them in.
"This is your new disciple. He looks not bad!"
Wen Huayang was a forthright person. When he saw Xu Yong bringing Junior Leopard over, he was stunned for a moment, then he laughed out loud, "So young, yet so strong. It seems that you have a successor!"
"He is still young. In the future, when he travels in Jianghu, he still needs your care!" Xu Yong smiled and said, then he let Junior Leopard greet his Martial Uncle.
"What are you talking about? Your disciple is the same as my disciple. There's no need to be polite!" Wen Huayang helped Junior Leopard up and said intimately, "You're Zhou Bao? This name is very powerful. This is the first time we meet, and I don't have anything good to give you. This thumb ring is not bad. Take it as my greeting gift! "
As he spoke, he took off a black jade thumb ring from his left thumb and gave it to Junior Leopard!
"This —!"
Junior Leopard was shocked. Although he didn't know much, this black jade thumb ring looked as delicate as sheep fat. Moreover, Wen Huayang had been wearing it on his left thumb. With one look, he knew it wasn't an ordinary item. He was afraid that it would cost at least a few thousand taels of silver. Just as they met, he wanted to give it to him. Was it because Wen Huayang was rich and overbearing, or was it because Xu Yong's face was too big? He wanted to accept it, but he wasn't afraid to accept it. After rejecting for a few times, he looked towards Xu Yong for help.
"Even if your uncle has already asked, just accept it!" Xu Yong smiled and said, "There is no need to be polite with him!"
Junior Leopard then accepted it, but he didn't dare to wear it on his hand immediately. Instead, he carefully placed it in his chest.
"The disciple that you, a blockhead, taught is also a blockhead. He is even more blockheaded than you were!" Seeing Junior Leopard's reaction, Wen Huayang said to Xu Yong.
"Stop talking nonsense. Go in first. Do you want to keep standing here and talking with me?!" Xu Yong said.
… …
… …
"This is my eldest grandson, Wen Biao. Biaozi, call him Martial Uncle!"
"Martial Uncle!"
"This is my second grandson, Wenqing. Wenqing, call him Martial Uncle!"
"Martial Uncle!"
