[Comprehensive martial arts] A scholar who is useless

Gong Jiu looked at him with a smile for a while, nodded and said, "Brother Lao Shu is here."

Shuming coughed deeply, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Ninth was injured in order to save me, and these are what I should do..."

Jiu Gongzi just smiled, and then drank the soup that Shu Mingshen fed him.

Gong Jiu also seems to enjoy the process of being taken care of by the other party in every possible way. Although the injury on his hand is almost healed, he still asks the medical officer to come in on time every day to change his dressing. He is still very busy helping him dress and fold his quilt every day, serving tea and pouring water.

Gong Jiu also said that people can do these things without Shu Mingshen doing it himself, but Shu Mingshen still refuses to relax because of the guilt in his heart.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Shu Mingshen who was carefully supporting Gong Jiu to ventilate in the garden, couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said: "It's his hands and not his feet that are hurt, why do you always help him?"

Shu Mingshen took it for granted: "Ninth brother, his body has not yet recovered, and his physique is already weak. The doctor also told him to take more care of him."

Gong Jiu let Shu Ming support her deeply, raised her eyebrows at Lu Xiaofeng and smiled: "..."

Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, turned his head to look for Dongfang Bubai, but found that the other party was playing chess with Flush.

Lu Xiaofeng hesitated for a moment, and finally he couldn't hold back and leaned over and said, "I said Dongfang..."

The other party hadn't talked to him for several days, and he hadn't had time to say what he wanted to confess to the other party before.

However, before he finished speaking, Dongfang Bubai said without raising his head: "Watch the chess without saying a word."

"..." Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to shut his mouth, and honestly stood aside to watch the chess.

"Nine horizontally, seventeen vertically." Hua Manlou said with a smile.

Dongfang Bubai put the chess pieces in the position mentioned by the opponent, then picked up the chess pieces in his own chess tank and put them in a certain place, saying: "Thirteen columns, eighteen rows..."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at it for a while, saw that Dongfang Bubai ignored him, then turned his head to Huamanlou who was at the side, and said, "Huamanlou, I say you..."

It's a pity that he still didn't finish his sentence, so Hua Manlou said in a gentle but firm voice: "Brother Lu, watching chess without talking is what a gentleman does."

"But what I want to talk about is not about playing chess..." Lu Xiaofeng said with a wry smile.

"Then what do you want to say?" Dongfang Bubai glanced at him after hearing the words.

Lu Xiaofeng hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Is the thing you said about Shu Mingshen true?"

Hua Manlou pondered and said, "Since King Taiping is so sure, and with all the things Brother Shu has encountered before, I think it is indeed possible..."

"So you mean that Shu Mingshen might really become the Son of Heaven?" Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said, "Then the reason why these people want to arrest the other party is to use him."

Hua Manlou sighed and said: "It's possible, it's nothing more than coercing the emperor to order the princes, but the emperor's order is still too illusory. If these people really think that they can get the world if they get the right way, then that's too much." Too stupid."

However, Lu Xiaofeng thought for a while and said: "You can't say that..."

"The reason why the previous emperor got rid of Zhennan Wang's family was ultimately because of this prophecy," Lu Xiaofeng touched his chin and said, "Although I don't want to believe that such a thing exists, I always believe that everything is possible I'd rather believe it than believe it..."

Hua Manlou shook his head and said: "I think there is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime. Maybe the emperor has been displeased with the King of Zhennan for a long time, or the other party really has the intention of treason, which led to the murder It's a disaster, but it's a pity that although we think so, others may not."

That's why those people will pursue Shuming after hearing the news of this matter. After all, being able to become the Ninth Five-Year Lord, the king of a country, the temptation to people is really not ordinary, even if it is a small one. Possibly, those who have already moved this idea are absolutely unwilling to give up easily...

So they actually didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune for Mingshen to explain.

It seemed that Shu Mingshen didn't take it seriously, or that although he had listened to Prince Taiping's words, he still didn't think that the so-called Prince Zhennan was himself.

At least he has lived in this world for twenty years. Although he has not read many sage books, he will not believe such a bizarre thing so easily.

What's more, he has no interest in being an emperor. He is just a grassroots person. He can live comfortably and read a few idle books in his spare time. He feels lucky. He doesn't bother to think about other things at all.

Lu Xiaofeng and the others didn't know whether to cry or laugh at his attitude, but the problem was that the trouble was here, and they had to find a way to solve it.

"Wait a minute, where are you going?" Seeing Shu Mingshen and Gong Jiu walking together, talking and laughing as if they were about to go to the gate of the palace, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but stop and asked.

Hearing this, Shu Ming turned his head and said, "It's rare to come here, of course we are going out of town to play!"

"Out of the city?" Lu Xiaofeng looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Do you know what's going on outside right now?"

Shu Ming was a little puzzled and said: "What situation?"

Lu Xiaofeng said with a serious face, "Everyone is looking for you outside, do you still want to give Ye Gucheng a chance to arrest you?"

Before Shu Mingshen could open his mouth, Gong Jiu coughed lightly at this moment, and said: "City Master Ye has already agreed on a time for a duel with Master Ximen Zhuang, so now that he thinks about it, he has already returned to Feixian Island to make preparations for this matter. Besides, Brother Shu and I have brought many guards with us, and we will return in time before dark, those people must not dare to openly come to trouble us."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, in case something happens to you two..."

Shu Ming interjected indifferently: "Brother Lu is worrying too much, even if the rumor is true, it is impossible for me not to go out for the rest of my life."

"What's more, with Brother Lu, Brother Hua, and the owner of Ximen Village sitting here, those assassins have long been terrified." Shuming said with a deep smile: "Ninth Brother, he is also the son of Prince Taiping, and he has many guards. Who dares to trouble us, Brother Lu, don't worry, we will be fine!"

"..." Lu Xiaofeng looked at Shu Mingshen and Gong Jiu's leaving back and thought silently for a while, thinking that since they are guests here, and Gong Jiu is also the heir of Prince Taiping, ordinary people really dare not trouble them. So I just let those two go, and I ran to chat with my sweetheart as a routine.

Gong Jiu and Shu Mingshen wandered the streets aboveboard, followed by a row of Taiping Palace guards.

Gong Jiu looked at Shu Ming with a smile and said deeply: "Seeing that Brother Shu, you didn't take this matter to heart, I feel relieved."

Hearing this deeply, Shu Ming raised his hand and scratched his hair. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Actually, I'm not completely careless..."

Seeing Gong Jiu looking at him suspiciously, Shu Ming sighed deeply and said, "It's just that it's useless even if I worry about it. I'm just a commoner, neither martial arts nor powerful. If it weren't for Brother Lu and others If it is protected, it may have already died in Huangquan by now."

"Although I think this matter is nonsense, as long as there are people in this world who believe it, they will always come to trouble me, and now even City Lord Baiyun has been alarmed," Shu Ming said after deep consideration: "And my brother It is also impossible to rely on the protection of Brother Hua, Brother Dongfang and others to live forever, so at this moment, Shu Mou actually doesn't know what to do..."

Maybe he'll die someday.

Although Shu Mingshen was a little dazed, he was not a fool after all. He knew the seriousness of this matter, but he had no way to resist it with his own strength.

It can only be said that God's will tricked people, and this kind of unlucky thing fell on his head...

Seeing Shu Ming bowed his head and looked disappointed, Gong Jiu thought for a while and said: "Actually, this matter is not so serious."

"Brother Shu, you are the so-called destined person or not, but there is no doubt that you are my friends." Gong Jiu smiled and put his hands on his shoulders to comfort him: "Isn't it essential to protect the safety of your friends?" Is it what we should do? I think Brother Lu and the others must think so too!"

"Even if you really have nowhere to go, Brother Shu, you will always have a place in Prince Taiping's mansion," Gong Jiu said solemnly to Shu Ming, who was looking at him in a daze, "So, Brother Shu, Don't give up too early!"

Although Shu Mingshen looked calm and breezy on the surface, Gong Jiu knew that the other party's thinking might not be so simple. After all, this matter was related to his own wealth and life. He took it as a child's play, not to mention that the other party had already experienced so many things before, and even almost died in the hands of those who wanted to kill the other party.

"..." Shu Ming stared blankly at the Ninth Young Master in front of him for a long time, then finally lowered his eyes, and said with some emotion: "Thank you Ninth Brother for your concern, I understand!"

Gong Jiu raised his hand and patted each other's shoulders, and the two smiled and continued to tour the city.

Today's fog is a bit heavy, and until almost noon, there is still a layer of mist like blue smoke in the air, making the far and near scenery look like being immersed in an ink painting.

The two came to the lake after swimming. The stone steps were a bit slippery. Shuming was afraid that Gong Jiu's fall would cause the wound on his arm, so he carefully supported the other's other hand.

While talking and laughing, the two planned to find a painting boat to cruise the lake, but as soon as they raised their eyes, they saw a boat that looked like fallen leaves not far away, sailing towards the two of them through the misty mist .

"..." Shu Mingshen was still a little confused about who the other party was, but after seeing it clearly, his eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled and said: "I didn't expect Master Wuhua to swim in the lake here, Shumou is so polite. Already!"

Isn't the ethereal figure standing on the leafy boat the same "wonderful monk" Wuhua?

I saw the young monk dressed in white with an elegant demeanor and a beautiful face. After seeing Shu Mingshen standing on the shore, he folded his hands together towards him, smiled back and said, "Long time no see, Brother Shu, this poor monk The room is also polite..."

"Master Wuhua is very elegant," Shuming said with a deep smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time since the last time I said goodbye to Master and brother Chu. I wonder how is Master?"

In fact, he and Wuhua only met once, the last time Chu Liuxiang dragged each other to his house for a drink.

Because the mountains and rocks near his home are quiet and the scenery is very beautiful, so Chu Liuxiang rented one of the houses casually, and used it as a resting place for drinking in the future.

Although Shu Mingshen had a deep impression on Chu Liuxiang, he was even more impressed by Wuhua.

The wonderful monk in white clothes is spotless, his whole body seems to be separated from the world, and any dirt and mundane things in the world cannot contaminate half of the other party's clothes. Shu Ming deeply feels that if there is really anyone who can be worthy If the words "beyond the dust and peerless world" are mentioned, even this master Wuhua is the only one.

Wuhua heard the words and said with a gentle face: "I'm afraid there is no difference between good and bad to the poor monk. As long as people are still living in this mundane world, they are the same no matter where they go..."

Shu Mingshen then introduced Gong Jiu who was beside him to each other.

Gong Jiu took a slight look at the other party, smiled and said to the white-clothed monk in front of him: "I have heard the name of the wonderful monk Wuhua for a long time, but seeing him today is really extraordinary, and I can't help but yearn for it."

Wuhua smiled faintly, looked at the other party and said: "In the eyes of the poor monk, the ninth son is probably not a common person. It is also the luck of the poor monk to meet the ninth son today!"

"..." Shu Ming looked deeply at the two people who were looking at each other in front of him, all of whom were smiling meaningfully, and couldn't help being a little confused. Just about to say something, Wu Hua continued at this moment: "Brother Shu, do you want to swim the lake with this Ninth Young Master? How about going on the poor monk's boat, where there are piano and wine just so as not to waste the beautiful scenery of the lake."

Shu Ming couldn't help being a little moved when he heard the words, so he turned his head and looked at Gong Jiu who was at the side.

Gong Jiu looked at Shu Ming and smiled deeply, then raised his eyebrows and said to Wu Hua who was opposite him: "Since Master Wu Hua invites you, how dare you refuse me as an inferior, please!"

Then, Shu Mingshen and Gong Jiu boarded Wuhua's boat together.

Wu Hua is obviously an elegant person, not to mention that he can play the qin well, and the vegetarian food is also elegant and exquisite without any smoke and fire. Shu Mingshen and others sat on the boat talking and laughing while playing the qin and tasting tea, they were extremely happy up.

Shu Ming asked deeply: "Master Wu Hua, have you seen Brother Chu recently?"

Wu Hua heard the words, her fingers that were wantonly plucking the strings couldn't help but stop, and said calmly, "That's not true."

Shu Ming nodded deeply and said: "That's no wonder, brother Chu came to look for you next time, and said he wanted to find Master Wuhua, but he didn't say what it was for..."
