A mysterious apprentice

After returning back, Bai Yuan immediately told Xiao Zheng about this matter, but Xiao Zheng didn't have any opinion about it, he could only guess that either the old man's strength was not average or Bai Yuan simply misunderstood him.

Because there is no way to prove it, this matter can only be left alone.

Xiaotong didn't come back the next day, because the boat had already docked before that.

Fortunately, the weather was pretty good, there were no clouds in the sky, and the sun shone even slightly on people.

Bai Yuan followed Xiao Zheng out of the boat. He looked up at the port where people were coming and going, and touched the scabbard subconsciously.

There is a delicate and small red knot hanging on it, which was made by Bai Yuan on the bed in the past few days, but Xiao Zheng's embroidery has not been completely finished, so what he is going to make is naturally something from their holy religion, anyway, it is not possible It can be done simply.

After getting off the boat, the closure of the city is almost in sight. Even ordinary people can walk there in half an hour, let alone them.

So not long after, Bai Yuan stood in front of Wanhe Villa.

"The last time I came here was when Mr. Liu was alive, so many years have passed in a flash." Liang Xihe walked in the front and looked quite emotional. He looked at the top plaque reluctantly, hesitating It took a while before someone went in to notify.

Xiao Zheng also looked here twice more curiously, his nose moved, and then he frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Yuan asked worriedly, but only got a shake of his head in response.

"Oh, you came so early, we didn't have time to prepare anything, it's really rude." The man's deep and hoarse voice came from behind the small door, and Bai Yuan immediately showed a surprised expression.

Shao Yipeng came out of the villa, and Liang Xihe lost his smiling face almost the moment he appeared.

How could it be him, Liu Fengrou?

Deliberately ignoring Liang Xihe's extremely bad complexion, Shao Yipeng, as the son-in-law of Wanhe Villa, greeted Bai Yuan and other guests who came here one by one, and then led them into the villa.

The Bai family and the Liu family have a good relationship, so even though they are far apart, Bai Yuan was often pushed here by his family members under the pretext of training, so he is quite familiar with this place.

Zhao Xuyu was in high spirits. She had hardly been out of the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and every time she went to a place, she saw a novelty.

"Fengrou has something to go out, and she will come back at night without any accidents. Oh, we didn't expect you to arrive today, otherwise Fengrou would definitely not go out."

After entering the hall, Shao Yipeng explained that although the wedding will not take place in half a month, the villa has already been decorated full of festive atmosphere, with all kinds of beautiful pictures and small things.

Bai Yuan couldn't help touching it with his hands, thinking about how much difference there was in the details between this embroidery and the embroidery made by Xiao Zheng.

Because it was already past lunch time when we arrived at the villa, Shao Yipeng ordered the people below to reopen the pot urgently, while they were chatting in the room.

It's just that among the good things, there was also a bad thing that happened, that is, the subordinate of Shao Yipeng whom the old man and the boy were going to join had unfortunately died in a cleaning activity against the remnants of the Demon Cult not long ago.

But it's all here, and Shao Yipeng has absolutely no reason to let the old man and the children go back like this, so he naturally prepared a yard for them instead.

"I'll find a job for the old man after I'm done with these things recently. As for the little boy, we will also arrange it."

Such an ending seems to be the best, but Bai Yuan always feels uneasy, as if something still hasn't happened.

Everything that followed was logical, and everyone settled down in the villa. Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng shared a rather large courtyard. Looking around, it was a good place to practice swords at night without climbing over the wall.

And Zhao Xuyu was alone, and Liang Xihe resigned and left directly after eating because he had a mansion in the closed city.

Everything is fine.

The maid helped them clean the room, while Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng stood in the yard to exercise.

"It's really been a long time since I moved. I always feel that the bones are about to fall apart, and it will make a noise when I move." Bai Yuan stretched his waist, and unexpectedly there was a bone thumping sound.

After hearing this, Xiao Zheng couldn't help showing a faint smile: "Well, it seems that Master really needs to exercise a little bit. If possible, can I be Master's training partner?"

Bai Yuan patted his back, which was still healed, in a panic: "Ah, of course, that just happened was just an accident. I've only been on the boat for a few days, and I'm still not rusty."

The tall and gloomy tree cast a shadow, and the two men held two wooden swords and slashed at each other.

Facts have proved that although Bai Yuan has been lazy for a while, after all, the experience of so many years is not in vain. Besides, he has had five years more food than Xiao Zheng, so when Xiao Zheng tried his best, he couldn't get close to Bai Yuan to stab him. Before the blow, Bai Yuan had already poked Xiao Zheng's clothes crumpled with the wooden sword.

"Master, it really is very strong."

When the maid came over with tea and snacks, the unilateral confrontation between them finally came to an end.

Bai Yuan sat down and took a sip of tea: "Isn't it natural? Otherwise, I wouldn't be your master, and I should turn you into my master. You still have a lot to learn, don't think that's all In a few days, you can be a teacher."

He closed one eye and smiled slyly.

"..." Xiao Zheng didn't know what to say for a moment, and a different emotion reverberated in his heart. Finally, he could only explain, "No. You are my master, so it will always be me. Master, unless one day, you feel that I am like the name of the master."

puff--

Hearing these words, Bai Yuan spit out immediately, what is this guy saying for no reason!

Even such inexplicable words as insulting the teacher came out.

Returning to the teacher's door, where did the teacher's door come from!

"What nonsense are you talking about, unless you..." Bai Yuan struggled for a moment, and the original words stopped in his throat, "Well, in a word, this kind of thing will not happen, if you are honest, ah , What, why do you think of such a thing, I don’t understand at all.”

Bai Yuan threw the wooden sword aside in agitation, he didn't know what to say.

Xiao Zheng also consciously said something wrong, lowered his head in silence, and gently drew circles on the ground with his wooden sword.

Xiao Zheng, who made his master angry for the first time, finally figured out a way to apologize is to insert himself into the kitchen during dinner and cook a special dish for his master.

"I always feel that this is stronger than the toxicity and pharmacology I have researched." And at the end, I received such a comment from Zhao Xuyu.

Perhaps because of Liang Xihe's departure, everyone relaxed a lot and lost the rigidity they had during the day.

"Hahaha, the last time I saw Ms. Zhao was still a child, she became such an excellent doctor in a blink of an eye." Shao Yipeng took a big gulp of spirits and laughed heartily, "It's been a long, long time, I clearly I remember that I was still a little boy, but today I was called Shao Daxia."

Bai Yuan also laughed, Shao Yipeng was right, it has indeed been a long time.

It has been so long that many people have forgotten about the Demon Cult.

It was also a coincidence that Shao Yipeng was able to be with Liu Fengrou.

There were not many people who pursued Liu Fengrou back then, Liang Xihe was the most competitive one, but not the one with the most sure chance of winning.

Although, the one with the most ability may not be the one you want to have.

Liu Fengrou's favorite back then was actually Fang Shuyan who had infiltrated into the Devil's Cult and temporarily had no news, which caused a great commotion in the Jianghu.

It's just that although Fang Shuyan is a first-class hero, he never knows how to feel pity for red flowers, and rejects all the women who like him, even Liu Fengrou, the number one beauty in the world, is no exception.

After the leader of the Demon Cult fell from the mountain and died, Fang Shuyan became even more reticent, and basically never appeared in front of everyone except to deal with due affairs.

He is obviously the leader of the martial arts alliance, but he has become a reclusive expert.

But these are all old things, looking back today when Liu Fengrou is going to marry Shao Yipeng, it just adds to the troubles.

As Shao Yipeng said, when Liu Fengrou came back at night, she knew that Bai Yuan had also come and brought an apprentice with her, so she rushed over impatiently.

At that time, Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng were only halfway through their sparring, and Xiao Zheng would not be able to touch Bai Yuan in the afternoon. At night, he seemed to have suddenly found a technique. But finally he managed to meet Bai Yuan.

And when their fierce battle ceased, Liu Fengrou walked over with the supper in hand. She was wearing a long light purple dress, and she looked extraordinarily gentle and charming.

"Bai Yuan is really completely different from before, and he actually has his own apprentice, which really surprises people." Liu Fengrou looked Xiao Zheng up and down, and the smile on her face deepened, "If it wasn't because it was completely different, I thought I saw that person."

Bai Yuan handed the water to Xiao Zheng, and asked in puzzlement, "Who?"

Liu Fengrou is a very beautiful woman, her beauty radiates from the inside out, it can be said that every frown and smile is full of endless charm, but when she really squints her eyes and smiles at you, you feel like You will feel that your heart is inexplicably starting to get hairy.

Bai Yuan's heart sank, he guessed the name, but now he has no way to say it out.

"Bai Yuan, there's no way you can't guess it, of course it's that man, the man we all know very well." She looked at Xiao Zheng, and said the name she once hated in a very gentle tone, " The leader of the Demon Cult, Lian Jinrong."
