21. Identify yourself(1/2)
"The lonely smoke in the long river has a soft breath, which is less feminine than the Phantom's footsteps, and more grand than the falling snow steps.
More importantly, the state of mind is leisurely, the ups and downs are rapid, and there is also the beauty of hiding shadows in a square inch. This step is like a lonely smoke and a wild geese floating, and there is a desolate atmosphere."
On the streets of Luoyang, Chen Qiu sighed:
"It is worthy of being the exquisiteness of the Holy Fire Sect for thousands of years. This technique also has tricks against the enemy. If it is combined with the true qi of Yangyan, the flames will churn when moved, which can hurt people invisibly, and you will not be afraid of group battles."
"Yes, my mother said so."
In the carriage, Yaoqin had changed back to a plain long skirt.
He also brought Chen Qiu's black hat to cover his face.
They were heading towards Lei Mansion, and Yaoqin was a little nervous, so she chatted with Chen Qiu to relieve her worries.
She said to Chen Qiu:
"This lonely smoke in the long river is the unique knowledge of the Holy Fire Sect.
Of course, it is necessary to use it with advanced internal skills, and there are various wonderful methods. The masters of the Holy Fire Sect never fear many people's siege, which is because of this light skill.
But I am weak, and my mother said that if I want to learn martial arts, I have to first temper my body with the thousand-year holy fire.
She didn't want me to have any relationship with the world, so she just taught me how to use it to prevent myself.
Moreover, when Uncle Lu was there, he always said that Chen Qiu, you have a poor talent, but these days, you have learned the steps of the Lone Smoke, and you are very fast."
Yaoqin chuckled, she said:
"It's much faster than when I was a child."
"Probably I have a special talent for genital arts."
Chen Qiu hit him and covered up his past.
His family knows his family affairs. In the past few days, in addition to eating and going to the bathroom, he has been practicing this lonely smoke step almost all the time, and his dreams have made him spend a few more days to practice.
If you are not even competing with Qiu Wei, you can compete with experts like Zhejishan and practice between life and death. The progress of the lonely Yan step is naturally much faster.
How could he have any special talents?
It’s just that you are willing to work hard and be able to practice with your own heart.
"There are all Heluo Gang boxers on this street. It seems that the situation in Luoyang is not good."
Chen Qiu opened the curtains of the carriage and looked out. On the street in front of Lei Mansion, there were nearly a hundred black-clad boxers in Heluo Gang walking on the guards.
Coupled with the news received from the Beggars' Sect, Chen Qiu could already determine the score in his heart.
A few days ago, he used the Jinghong Beast to send a text message to the Lei Mansion. At this time, Master Lei and the Wanderer should be there.
He did not tell the truth, but just told Lei Ye that there was news about the Holy Fire Sect.
If Lei Shiyin is really another saint of the Holy Fire Sect, then this news will be enough to make Lei Ye serious.
Now it seems that it is indeed time for a showdown.
After half a stick of incense, the carriage was parked in front of the Lei Mansion. Mr. Lei’s confidant, the manager Zhao, greeted him in advance at the door.
Seeing Chen Qiu jumped out of the carriage, Manager Zhao went up to meet him.
"The master and the uncle are waiting for the young hero at home, please follow me."
Chen Qiu nodded, then reached out and helped Yaoqin out of the car. The two of them have become closer in the past few days, and now things are urgent, Yaoqin doesn't care about the big defense of the man and woman.
She helped Chen Qiu get off the carriage with her wrist, and then tidied her clothes and hair.
Manager Zhao looked at the girl wearing a straw hat and a plain skirt. This was definitely not Miss Qingqing.
Yaoqin is taller than Qingqing, and her figure is much better than that girl's washboard.
"Who is this?"
Manager Zhao asked softly, Chen Qiu waved his hand and said casually:
"It's my family and an insider. Manager Zhao is leading the way in front of him."
Manager Zhao took the two of them across a large garden and a square martial arts field, with the flag of the Heluo Gang. After the martial arts field, it is the lobby of the mansion, which is used only when welcoming distinguished guests.
Chen Qiu and Yaoqin entered the lobby and saw Lei Ye and Lang Monk sitting on the front seat of the lobby.
Mr. Lei still dressed up with a little undress. Although he was wearing a good brocade gown, his round belly and the hookah on his hands.
His smiling fat face really makes it difficult to tie him to the identity of the Heluo Gang as the leader of the big head.
Seeing Chen Qiu coming, Master Lei, who was smoking, put down his cigarette puff and stood up enthusiastically to greet him, just like he had met on the Huai River.
He called himself a virtuous nephew, sat on a chair facing Chen Qiu, and called Manager Zhao to hold a banquet as soon as possible, wanting to welcome his virtuous nephew, and act like a businessman.
Chen Qiu would not stop him.
It is easy to talk about things at the dinner table, which is a rule from ancient times to the present. For the old world like Lei Ye, who is so gloomy, it is not beautiful to talk about things directly.
Soon, there were more wine and food on the Eight Immortals table in the hall.
Master Lei held a wine pot and poured a glass of wine for Chen Qiu. He looked at Yaoqin beside Chen Qiu, except for the hat. When he saw that face, Master Lei narrowed his eyes and then said with a smile:
"Wouldn't you introduce to me the beautiful girl next to you? I see that you are very intimate. Could this girl be my nephew's favorite?"
This is what acquaintances joke.
Yaoqin's cheeks were slightly red, Chen Qiu picked up the wine glass and toasted him to Mr. Lei and Lang Seng, and then explained:
"This girl is my family and Qingqing, and she is also a benefactor. Qingqing was taken care of by her since childhood and was able to grow up safely.
In addition, she is the girl in Luoyue Shangfang, Suzhou. The Luoyue name is the private property of Yaoqin's family."
"Well, the girl is so big."
Master Lei was shocked, and he immediately stood up, clasped his fists at Yaoqin, and said:
"My Heluo Gang's branch in Suzhou also often sends letters, hoping to reach some business dealings with Luoyue Business House.
This time, the Lord of Luoyue Shangfang is in front of us. Our old Lei looks so stupid that he cannot recognize the real person. Please ask Miss Yaoqin to forgive us our old Lei Menglang.”
"Your Madam Lei doesn't have to do this."
Yaoqin chuckled and said:
"I am in Suzhou and I also heard that the Heluo Gang's business routes are everywhere. The family manager also suggested that they cooperate with the You Gang, but it was delayed due to various reasons."
Both of them are great businessmen, although Yaoqin never participates in business banquets at home.
But he is in charge of business affairs in business and has a good manner during conversations.
She had a great conversation with Master Lei.
Chen Qiu was drinking and did not participate in the discussion. It was not until Yaoqin picked up her hat and saw her face that the expressions of Lei Ye and Lang Seng changed a little.
Master Lei looked at his brothers, then put down his wine glass and picked up the hookah. His eyes moved on Shen Qiu and Yaoqin for a moment, and asked:
"Nephew, you wrote yesterday that it was something that was related to the Holy Fire Sect, and you want to talk to our Lao Lei?"
"Yes, Mr. Lei."
Chen Qiu also put down his wine glass. He looked at Master Lei and said softly:
"Master Lei, my junior sister and I have been taken care of by you many times. The matter in Qilu was also thanks to the help of Master Lei and Master Heiming, which was saved.
There is a relationship between you and me, so I will no longer hide it.”
He pointed to Yaoqin and said:
"Today's events are related to Yaoqin and Miss Shiyin. Chen Qiu wanted to ask, did Master Lei have no doubts when he saw Yaoqin's familiar eyebrows?"
This question made Lei Ye's smiling expression become a little deeper.
He did not answer, but shouted outside the door:
"Old Zhao, no one is allowed to stay within a hundred feet!"
Manager Zhao, who was outside the door, immediately turned around and left. Soon, the entire hall was cleared within a hundred feet and the door of the hall was closed.
The light in the room was dimmed a little.
Master Lei picked up the hookah and the smile on his face disappeared.
He smoked a cigarette and sprayed two wisps of smoke from his nostrils. Looking at Chen Qiu and Yaoqin, he said:
"When did you know?"
"About seven days ago."
Chen Qiu also replied frankly:
"Let Yaoqin tell you about this. Ethically speaking, Lei Ye is also Yaoqin's uncle."
"Uncle?"
As soon as he said this, Master Lei was so shocked that he stood up on the spot.
The monk beside him also tightened the Buddhist beads in his hand. Judging from his movements, if something is wrong, the Buddhist beads can be thrown out as hidden weapons.
There was a little tension between the halls.
