Chapter 378 Zuo Ting Gets Married
On July 18th, the city of Luoyang was already bustling with activity.

Tomorrow is the auspicious day for the Tongpan to marry his daughter and the Tongzhi to marry his wife, so naturally it will be a big celebration. A large number of people from the underworld have poured into Luoyang city, but under the supervision of the Luoyang Guards, they have all become extremely honest.

In an inn, Xiang Danian, Mi Weiyi and Cheng Baiyu were sitting together chatting.

Cheng Baiyu participated in the battle of the Ancestral Mountain with Mo Da last time and gained a lot. After returning to Hengshan and receiving Mo Da's instruction, he studied even harder, integrated what he had learned, and improved his martial arts a lot.

Nowadays, in Hunan, Jiangxi and Guangdong, when the name "Hengshan White Knight" Cheng Baiyu is mentioned, people in the martial arts world will all stand in awe and praise him.

Xiang Danian poured a cup of tea, looked at Cheng Baiyu and asked, "This time when Master Zuo is getting married, won't Master Head come?"

"Yes, I will represent the master to attend the wedding."

Cheng Baiyu nodded and explained, "Master Zuo explained in the letter that after the ceremony, he will go to the capital to perform his duties, so it will be inconvenient for him to entertain everyone. He asked Master to send his disciples directly to come."

"I see. No wonder I only saw two junior brothers Liang Fa and Lu Dayou from Huashan Sect, and two senior sisters Yihe and Yiqing from Hengshan Sect outside."

Xiang Danian smiled and said, "Master Zuo is becoming more and more free and easy."

Mi Weiyi said with some melancholy: "I am here on behalf of Master. In the past two years, Master Zuo has focused all his energy on the Songshan Guard. We have no one to take charge of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. By the way, Master, are you not interested?"

Cheng Baiyu shook his head, smiled bitterly and said, "Master has been studying music scores recently."

Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi looked at each other and thought, well, another one who is not doing his job properly.

"Is there any news about Linghu Chong in Huashan?" Xiang Danian looked at Cheng Baiyu and asked.

You have to know that when Ou Zanghua got married, Linghu Chong helped. The atmosphere at that time was so good that it felt unreal.

"It is rumored that there is a swordsman on the Blackwood Cliff. His swordsmanship is as elegant as the wind and unrestrained as the sky. No one can defeat him. Even the best in the martial arts world can hardly withstand more than ten moves from his sword. It is precisely because of the existence of this peerless swordsman that Ren Yingying's position as the leader is as stable as a mountain. Everyone in and outside the Sun Moon Divine Sect is in awe of him."

Cheng Baiyu said with a strange look on his face: "In this martial arts world, there are no more than three people who have this kind of swordsmanship, namely Taoist Chongxu, Master Zuo, and Linghu Chong."

"Since the serious injury, Taoist Chongxu has been in seclusion in Wudang, concentrating on recuperating and rarely setting foot in the martial arts world. And Master Zuo is even more secluded and rarely goes out. It is difficult to find him except in Luoyang. With these exclusions, the true identity of the mysterious swordsman on the Black Wood Cliff is self-evident."

He did not mention Dongfang Bubai and Ou Zanghua because it was impossible for these two people to appear in Heimu Cliff.

One grave was covered with grass, and the other had never left the capital.

Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi both showed an expression of disbelief. After all, Linghu Chong grew up in Huashan, so how could he not know the hatred between the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the Sun Moon Sect?
How could he be like this?!
"Oh, I think Uncle Yue must be very sad!" Xiang Danian sighed and said with some melancholy.

"Let's not talk about this anymore," Cheng Baiyu took over the conversation and said, "I heard that the person who came to Shaolin this time was the new abbot, Master Fang Jing, and the representative of Wudang was Taoist Master Hongxiang, the eldest disciple of Taoist Master Chongxu. It seems that Taoist Master Hongxiang may be the next head of Wudang."

"What about Lin Pingzhi?" Xiang Danian asked curiously.

"Lin Pingzhi also came this time, but he joined too late and has no chance." Mi Weiyi shook his head, his expression very calm.

On the morning of the 19th, the sky was as clear and bright as washed blue silk. A few leisurely white clouds were wandering leisurely in it. The sunlight gently penetrated the mist and sprinkled on the earth. It was a day with excellent weather.

Ding Mian, Lu Bai, Fei Bin and Le Hou from Songshan Sect were responsible for receiving guests. This time, Zuo Lengchan also intended to break away from those gangsters, so the invitations he sent out were all to famous and upright sects.

He never invited the Wangwu Sect, the Five Tigers Sect, the Eagle Claw and Goose Flying Sect, the Weituo Sect, the Haisha Gang, the Yellow River Gang, etc.

The only ones who didn't fit in were the two brothers of the Golden Sword Wang family. Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang looked around. On the left was the head of the Dian Cang Sect, Liu Yizi, who was tall and straight and beautiful. They glanced at the two elders of Kongtong sitting on their right. They had dignified faces and deep eyes, and they were obviously strong men with profound internal skills. Then they looked at the Zen Master Zhikong of Mount Wutai in front of them, who was sitting like an old pine tree with kind eyes.

The two brothers couldn't help but think to themselves that although they were from a famous family and were very powerful, they felt a little insecure when surrounded by so many martial arts masters.

However, the embarrassment did not last long. As Zuo Ting brought his wife back, the banquet officially began.

As the host, Zuo Lengchan sat at the most noble table. The prefect of Luoyang, the commander of Luoyang Guard and others came to the scene and gave him enough face.

Everyone knows that he is about to go to Beijing, but it is hard to say how far he will go in the future.

Huang Zhong was 75 years old and yet he was promoted to the rank of Rear General, and Zuo Lengchan was only in his 50s and looked very energetic, which meant that he still had a chance.

After a lively wedding banquet, on the second morning, Zuo Lengchan, wearing a well-tailored robe, sat upright on the armchair in the center of the ancestral hall. His face was calm, but his eyes were a little vague. Did he have a daughter-in-law already?
There's an inexplicable feeling that it's unreal!

Will I be able to hold my grandchild next year?

What should my grandson be named?
Should I study literature or martial arts?
Forget it, I have to go to Beijing anyway, so I'll ask Lord Ou to give me a name then!
As the sun gradually rose higher, light footsteps were heard outside the door, accompanied by faint whispers, breaking the silence in the ancestral hall.

The newlywed couple Zuo Ting and Zhao Hongxiu walked into the ancestral hall hand in hand. Standing together, they looked a match made in heaven.

They slowly walked to Zuo Lengchan, bowed respectfully, and greeted him in unison: "Good morning, father."

A smile also appeared on Zuo Lengchan's serious face. He was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law.

He raised his hand slightly, indicating that they didn't need to be polite.

A maid came over with a tray. Zhao Hongxiu held an exquisite tea tray in both hands and carefully handed the teacup to Zuo Lengchan. She said in a gentle voice, "Father, please have some tea."

Zuo Lengchan took the teacup, took a sip, and the aroma of tea filled the air. It was his treasured Huangshan Songluo Tea!
Putting down the teacup, Lao Zuo looked at the newlyweds and said, "From now on, we are a family. You two must support each other and bring honor to our Zuo family."

Upon hearing this, the couple both nodded solemnly.

Old Zuo stood up and continued, "I will be going to Beijing today. I will ask Hongxiu to take care of the family. Zuo Ting is a thick-skinned guy. If he makes you unhappy, write to me and I will send someone back to teach him a lesson."

"Ah?" Zuo Ting was laughing foolishly just now, but when he heard Zuo Lengchan's words, he trembled with fear, because Zuo Lengchan was really capable of doing such a thing.

Zhao Hongxiu covered her mouth and smiled, and said gently: "Please rest assured, father, my husband is honest and mature, and will take good care of my daughter-in-law and the family."

"I hope so!" Zuo Lengchan glanced at Zuo Ting, then raised his leg and walked out.

Zuo Ting reacted and followed him and asked, "Dad, are you in such a hurry to go to Beijing?"

"Well, I told my nephew yesterday that Lord Ou is waiting for me." Zuo Lengchan nodded, patted Zuo Ting's shoulder and said, "You are already married, it's time to support yourself. Your father believes in you!"

Zuo Ting was stunned. He didn't expect Zuo Lengchan to suddenly say this.

He nodded immediately and said seriously: "Don't worry, Dad, I can do it with Hongxiu's help."

Zuo Lengchan laughed, then turned around to look at Zhao Hongxiu and said, "First, finish the first task and continue the Zuo family's legacy, then we can talk about other things."
