Chapter 253 The most important thing
In the western evening sky, there was a line of thick clouds.
Tired birds return to the forest, the mountains and forests are shrouded in a red haze, and the setting sun dyes the sky red.
Five carriages slowly entered Hengshan City. The travelers knew it was time to say goodbye and expressed their gratitude to Xiang Da Nian one after another.
With a proper smile, he said goodbye to every companion gently.
They were just ordinary traveling merchants and people visiting relatives. They chose to follow the Cangzhou Escort Agency because they were worried about encountering bandits on the road.
Seeing this, Xiang Danian was happy to lend a helping hand.
So after getting off the boat in Yueyang, they took many people along the way, some to Miluo, some to Pingjiang, and some to Tanzhou.
Some people left the team, and some joined.
Along the way, Xiang Danian's name has become more famous in Hunan.
When the team arrived at the yard where Liu's house was located, they happened to meet Liu Qin who was returning from school.
As soon as Master Liu saw his second senior brother, he ran over excitedly and said excitedly: "Second senior brother, you are back! It must have been very hard for you to come here all the way. I will stay at home to take care of you tomorrow! Huang Xiaogui, please ask for leave from the academy for me tomorrow!"
"what?"
The book boy Huang Xiaogui was stunned. Is this something he can do?
Xiang Danian looked at the shrewd Liu Qin and said with a smile: "If Junior Brother Qin wants to take a leave, it would be better to ask Master for permission."
Liu Qin looked embarrassed and immediately said, "Second Brother, I was just too excited to see you back, and I just said nonsense. Please don't tell my parents!"
"Okay!" Xiang Da Nian nodded and agreed.
Seeing this, Liu Qin happily ran into the Liu residence and shouted, "Dad, the second brother is back! He brought a lot of people with him."
Liu Zhengfeng, who was working on a new song with Qu Yang, heard his son's cry and subconsciously blurted out, "You bastard!"
Then he realized that it was the second disciple who came back.
Qu Yang took the zither from his hands and said with a smile, "Coming back from the capital at this time of the year, the young master must have prepared some surprise for Brother Liu!"
"Hahaha"
Liu Zhengfeng stood up with a hearty smile, pulled Qu Yang and said, "Come on, let's go see my second disciple, and then see what good things my eldest disciple has brought back. I hope it's a rare piece of music!"
Qu Yang smiled and shook his head, then walked to the living room with Liu Zhengfeng. When he looked up, he saw Xiang Danian directing the escorts to unload the goods.
When Xiang Danian saw his master coming, he immediately went up to him, bowed and said, "Master, your disciple is back!"
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Liu Zhengfeng pulled Xiang Danian up, and seeing how energetic he looked, he knew that these two disciples were doing well.
Xiang Danian also looked at his master and found that he had gained some weight compared to last year, with a ruddy complexion. One could tell at a glance that he was living a good life.
"Master, let me introduce you. This is Miss Tan Wuxia from the Cangzhou Escort Agency. She is a good friend of our senior brother, and she is in charge of this escort trip." Xiang Danian made way and introduced to Liu Zhengfeng.
Tan Wuxia stepped forward, bowed and said, "Liu Renxia, Senior Qu!"
"Hello, Miss Tan. Since you are Zang Hua's friend, coming to Hengshan will be just like being at home. There is no need to restrict yourself." Liu Zhengfeng bowed in return and said gently.
Tan Wuxia agreed politely without taking it seriously.
Afterwards, Liu Zhengfeng called the housekeeper and asked him to arrange accommodation and food for the escorts of Cangzhou Escort Agency. After all the goods were unloaded, the servants led them down.
Xiang Danian then began to introduce the things that Ou Zanghua asked him to bring back, the first of which was the mountain tiger medicinal wine.
After hearing that this was medicinal wine made by the imperial physician, Liu Zhengfeng immediately asked Xiang Danian to open the jar and pour out a pot for him to taste.
After learning about the miraculous effects of the Four Saints and Four Spirits Paste, Liu Zhengfeng was shocked at first. After confirming that Xiang Danian had eaten many tablets, he said to Qu Yang with emotion: "I never thought that there would be such a magical thing in the world."
He opened the box and took a look. After confirming that there were thirty-six pieces inside, he thought for a while before saying, "Let's divide it into four portions! One for the head brother, one for Brother Lu, and one for Wei Yi. The remaining portion will be tasted by Brother Qu and I."
After hearing this, Qu Yang immediately shook his head and refused, "I am very happy that Brother Liu has this intention, but there is no need to taste it. According to the rules of the martial arts world, I am not from the Hengshan Sect, so I cannot take anything from your Hengshan Sect."
"Brother Qu is now polite to me!" Liu Zhengfeng smiled but did not force it.
At this time, Xiang Danian looked around and confirmed that they were all trustworthy people. He then opened his collar, took out a cloth bag from his arms, and said seriously: "Master, this is the real purpose of my disciple's return."
"What is this?" Liu Zhengfeng took the cloth bag with some amusement, opened it, and saw that it was a book.
"This is the 'Yuantian Zhenyue Divine Art', which is a profound internal skill that was improved by my senior brother based on the 'Zhenyue Jue'. I have already switched to practicing this skill."
"After half a year of training, my disciple has already reached the level of a second-rate martial arts expert."
Xiang Danian was worried that Liu Zhengfeng would not take it seriously, so he told him about the effect of his practice: "The practice speed is more than twice as fast as the Hengshan Heart Method, and the recovery speed is more than three times that of the Hengshan Heart Method. When you practice to a high level, you can use the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force, and become stronger with each battle."
"What?!" Liu Zhengfeng's eyes widened immediately. With this secret book, the rise of Hengshan Sect is just around the corner.
No, the Hengshan sect is just not strong now, but it has risen a long time ago.
In the current Huguang Province, who, in both the black and white worlds, dares not give face to the Hengshan Sect?
However, having this secret book does add icing on the cake.
Liu Zhengfeng put the secret book away with a serious look on his face, and tried to practice it alone in the training room that night.
Lao Liu had a good talent for martial arts, at least better than Xiang Danian, but music and running the family business distracted his attention.
It took Xiang Danian three days to learn the "Yuantian Zhenyue Divine Art", but Liu Zhengfeng mastered it in just one night.
When he opened his eyes from the training room, his expression was full of joy, and he then said with some sigh: "As expected of Zang Hua, as long as he opens his mind, there is nothing he can't do."
Stretching, Liu Zhengfeng decided to go to Banshan Pavilion today to look for the head brother, Mo Da.
Things like this, which concern the future of the sect, still need to be discussed with the headmaster. Although his relationship with Mo Da has eased a bit during this period, there is still an awkward feeling of 'kings not meeting kings'.
However, as soon as Liu Zhengfeng walked out of the training room, his wife, Mrs. Ouyang, blocked his way.
Old Liu paused and asked with a smile, "Madam, why did you come to see me so early? What's the matter?"
"You old scoundrel."
Madam Ouyang rolled her eyes at Old Liu before asking in a low voice, "Da Nian came back yesterday. Did you ask him about the most important thing?"
"The most important thing? Of course, I'm going to discuss it with Senior Brother Mo!"
Liu Zhengfeng happily hugged his wife and said, "I'll tell you in detail when I come back. Zanghua is a child who has given me endless surprises!"
After saying that, Lao Liu called Mi Weiyi and hurried towards Hengshan.
Madam Ouyang was stunned, her mind full of question marks:
Why should she consult with Senior Brother Mo on such an important matter as whether her daughter was pregnant or not?
