15. Aftermath(1/2)

Chen Qiu said that he wanted to cultivate oneself and live a life in a small escort agency, but things didn't go as they wished.

In just two or three days, I had trouble coming to the door again.

It was just early morning that Chen Qiu was holding the Hongming Knife and practiced the Returning Yan Sword Technique. The Jueying Seven Killings was just a beginner, and he could barely see a slight shadow of the knife scattered when he swung the knife.

Yuyan Gong has just entered the door, and he rushed to two major acupoints on his legs last night.

If you want to use it skillfully, you have to continue practicing hard.

He was about to continue practicing sword skills again when he heard a noise outside the escort agency.

Chen Qiu frowned and said to Qingqing, who was standing on a wooden stake with one leg beside him, covering his eyes with a black cloth and trying to maintain balance:

"You go and see, what happened outside the door? It's so noisy."

Qingqing didn't move either. She continued to stand on the wooden stake with one leg, shaking, shouting to the front hall with her throat:

"Xiao Tie! Go and see what happened outside the door."

"oh."

The folded iron boy who was wiping the table responded, got up and headed towards the door.

This tall boy is very honest and honest. He is not angry when he is ordered by Qingqing these days.

He is born with a good temper, but he has a lot of appetite.

He could eat Chen Qiu's three meals at a time, but looking at the tendons on the boy's body, it could be seen that this guy was a big eater.

He also clumsyly praised Chen Qiu for his good cooking skills, and obviously wanted to have a good relationship with Shen Qiu.

To be fair, Chen Qiu doesn't hate the iron-cut boy.

This young man is stable, has a steady attitude and a good temper. He is really unpleasant and diligent. Without much need to say anything, he keeps the front hall of the escort agency neatly.

It's much better than the lazy Qingqing.

But there are many secrets in him.

Even martial arts masters like Mo Hei have to ask the Mo family master to deal with it, which really makes Chen Qiu, who has just experienced a troublesome situation, unable to get close to him.

He did not take the initiative to ask about the secrets of the iron-cut boy.

He instinctively felt that this was a big pit, so he should not jump into it on his own initiative, and he should also hold Qingqing, and don't let this stupid girl jump in.

Soon, the iron folded back and returned.

He said to Qingqing and Shen Qiu with confusion:

"There is a young man outside the door wearing mourning clothes and mourning clothes, shouting that he would meet Brother Chen Qiu. The neighbors are watching the fun."

Chen Qiu stopped the waving knife in his hand, and he folded the iron in half and said:

"Did you ask him for his name?"

“Ask.”

The young man nodded and said with a simple face:

"He said his name is Yi Sheng, and he is the only son of the hero Yi Ke, the leader of the Yi family escort agency."

"Bang"

Qingqing, who was trying to maintain balance on the wooden stake, suddenly fell to the ground. She removed the black cloth from her eyes, rubbed her butt and stood up, looking at her senior brother nervously.

Chen Qiu winked at her and signaled not to panic.

"I'll go and have a look."

Chen Qiu threw the Hongming sword in his hand to the folded iron. The latter reached out and took it in his hand, then put the knife back into the sheath. He was extremely skillful in his movements, and his sword was quite stylish. The momentum of putting the knife was quite unique.

This made Chen Qiu squint his eyes.

"You two stay in the yard, Qingqing continues to practice martial arts, don't go out, fold iron to wash the vegetables and fish, then wash some rice, and eat pickled fish for lunch."

Chen Qiu gave a few instructions, then walked into the front hall and opened the door.

In front of him, a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old was standing, wearing a mourning clothes and filial piety, holding a long sheathed sword in his hand, his eyes were red, and he poked it in place like a pillar.

Behind him, the neighbors stood in a circle and whispered.

"Everyone, go back."

Chen Qiu clasped his fists and bowed in circles, and he said loudly:

"This is a private matter, so don't get involved. Besides, what's the good thing about someone who loses his father?

Uncle Liu! As an elder on the street, you don’t care.”

Old Man Liu from the grocery store was also watching the fun. When Chen Qiu shouted, his old face was a little uneasy, so he stepped forward with a cane, shouted a few times, and drove away everyone around him.

After the crowd dispersed, Chen Qiu turned his attention to the young man in front of him, and he said:

"Yi Daxia eliminates the harm for the people and kills the demons in battle. This is a heroic and righteous act. As his son, you are not filial to your father in front of the spirit, and you still stand outside like this and ask others to give advice, how can you behave in a good manner!"

"Come in and sit down first."

Chen Qiu is only seventeen years old this year, but his tone of speaking was very mature. The young man was already full of questions, but when Chen Qiu said it, he was a little confused.

He is not going to advance or retreat, it is very embarrassing.

So he could only bow his head and follow Chen Qiu into the escort agency, and even close the door casually.

"sit."

Chen Qiu sat on the chair, pointed to the chair opposite him, and Yi Sheng, who was filial, sat silently on the chair. He leaned on the sword, looked at Chen Qiu, and said with red eyes:

"Brother Shen, I am here today, not to cause trouble, don't get me wrong.

I just...I just heard from the people in the escort agency that when my father fought with the demons of the Five Elements Sect that day, were you there too?"

"Yes."

Chen Qiu's face was calm, and there was a look of memory in his eyes. He said to Yi Sheng:

"Those cult demons kidnapped my junior sister, and that day, I will also save people."

"Brother Shen, can you tell me about the scene of that day?"

Yi Sheng tightened the sword in his hand, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"I lost my mother since I was young, and my father pulled me up to live and taught me to practice martial arts. When I heard the news of my father's death, I was extremely painful. I swear before my father's spirit to avenge him."

When Chen Qiu heard Yi Sheng’s statement, he observed Yi Sheng’s expression again, which was not like a false statement.

He felt relieved.

He pondered for a moment and persuaded in a warm voice:

"Young Master Yi, why are you doing this?

Your father killed Zhou Sheng, the killer of the Five Elements Sect, and breathed a sigh of relief for Suzhou Zhengdao, and saved the abducted woman. This was really a chivalrous move.

The person who killed your father was Zhou Sheng, but Zhou Sheng was also killed by your father, and the Demon Cult branch was also burned, so there was no grudge anymore.

I think if your father knows you, he doesn’t want you to live a life full of hatred.”

Chen Qiu was talking and was in love. He walked forward with sincerity and patted Yi Sheng on the shoulder, and he said:

"My life can be regarded as being saved by your father. Yi Daxia is my benefactor and you are the son of the benefactor. I will advise you to go home, practice martial arts well, and become a great hero who protects the country and the people like your father.

The great hero Yi Ke died as if he was right. I think there is no resentment in the underworld. Don’t ruin your bright future just because of the rumors of others.”

Yi Sheng has really seen the warmth and coldness of human nature these days.

His family is also Gua Manzi, the shopkeeper of the Yi family escort agency. When his father was there, the shopkeeper relied heavily on his family. The people in the escort agency also flattered everything and called their brothers and brothers to his father.

But as soon as my father died, there were people coming to pay their respects a few days ago, and no one took care of him in the past few days, so the shopkeeper's attitude towards him became a little cold.

Maybe I felt that my father was dead and that I was not good at martial arts and could not bear the responsibility of the escort leader.

The most outrageous thing is that before my father passed the first seventh period, the escort agency arranged to focus on the red deceased.

The studs who were close to their fathers in the past began to flatter the other studs, as if Yi Ke was immediately there.

Yi Sheng is a young man, how can he withstand this?

He had a big fight with the people in the escort agency, took his father's sword, rushed to the Lu family escort agency, and asked the only bystander when his father died that day.

In fact, he was not very clear. What would he ask when he came here to find Chen Qiu?

When you see Chen Qiu's true comfort and his care like his elder brother, your heart will be filled with sorrow, and you will cry when you hold Chen Qiu's arm.

This made Chen Qiu look embarrassed.

Who knows better than him how Yi Ke died?

Do you want to tell the truth about the silly boy in front of you, and then the two of them splattered blood in this front hall for seven steps?

Moreover, although Yi Ke died of greed, he really saved the abducted women and fought with the Five Elements Sect members, which was indeed a heroic move.

I can only say that he is a hypocrite, but he is not a real villain.

"Cry, just cry."
