Zongwu: Our Rivers and Lakes

Chapter 213 The Child Is Too Young

call--

The evening breeze is gentle.

The fiery red maple tree stands in the courtyard, swaying and rustling with the wind.

Under the tree, there were three people sitting around a small table with side dishes and porridge.

"Forehead……"

Long Peng, in white clothes and white hair, with an even paler face, took a sip of the porridge, but couldn't put down his chopsticks. He looked at the soft and beautiful girl next to him to pick up food for him, and coughed twice, "That... Lingsu..."

"what happened?"

Cheng Lingsu stopped immediately and looked up at her, revealing a white and tender face that was no longer pale and tired as it was a few days ago.

"I think I can already eat meat."

"no!"

Before Cheng Lingsu could speak, Grandma Sun spoke immediately, her eyes were full of seriousness, "Xiao Mumu, just recovering from a serious illness, you can't eat greasy food, don't you know?! You have learned medical skills from Miss Cheng, why..."

"This……"

Facing Grandma Sun's output, Long Peng was embarrassed. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Cheng Lingsu smiling at him, but he didn't intend to help him. He lowered his head helplessly and slowly picked the porridge.

"That's the way to think about it..." Grandma Sun smiled with satisfaction.

Cheng Lingsu came over quietly, and said in a low voice, "Wait a few more days, when your stomach gets better, I'll cook something delicious for you."

Long Peng was slightly startled, looked sideways at her bright eyes, raised the corners of his lips, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait."

……

Not long after breakfast, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

General Long Peng had finished exercising and was about to rest for a while when he saw a tall woman in black clothes standing at the door.

"Golden Phoenix..." Long Peng smiled.

It's been a few days since I saw her. She has lost a lot of weight, and her martial arts has improved a lot.

Long Peng could also feel that she should have broken through to the innate level, so she lived up to his cultivation.

"My dear guest, you really woke up! That's great! I told you, dear guest, you will definitely wake up!"

Jinfeng's eyes were reddish, and she was a little agitated, which is rare.

"Ha ha……"

Long Peng touched his nose and said with a smile, "I wanted to rest for a while, so I didn't tell you."

"Okay, okay, you are such a big person, why are you crying? Come in and talk."

Long Peng waved his hand, but he didn't go to the reception room, but under the red maple tree in the courtyard, he poured a cup of tea and lay back on the rocking chair.

The warm sunlight casts mottled shadows through layers of fallen leaves, and the warm autumn wind blows gently, making a rustling sound, driving those shadows to sway continuously.

Long Peng squinted his eyes when he felt comfortable, and said with a smile, "Don't be stupid, sit down."

"Oh yes!"

Jin Feng came back to her senses, and sat on the small stool very upright, looking a little reserved.

"You came to see me, did something happen?"

heard.

Jin Feng was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth to say no, but when the words came to his mouth, he nodded, "I do have something to report."

Long Peng nodded slightly, leaned back, and changed into a comfortable posture, "Speak, I'll listen."

"Yes!"

……

Medicine house.

Cheng Lingsu took a few glances from a distance, then looked away, and continued to take medicine and decoct it, not intending to come forward to listen.

After a while, when the sun was getting stronger, Cheng Lingsu came over with a warming soup and said, "You are not in good health yet, so don't bother too much. Also, drink the medicine."

"Okay, listen to you."

Long Peng smiled, took the bitter soup, drank it down, and frowned slightly, "It's really bitter..."

"Good medicine tastes bitter." Cheng Lingsu paused for a moment, and glanced at the sky, "The sun is hot, don't let it dry out, and go back to the house."

Long Peng nodded, glanced at Jin Feng, and said, "Let Ah Lang come over this afternoon, I have something to tell him.

Also, pay attention to your body when you go back.

Look at how thin you are, those who don’t know think that I, Long Pengke, deduct food from my subordinates. If you don’t have enough money, just pay it from my account, don’t tell me. "

"Subordinates obey."

Jin Feng bowed respectfully, then, took a deep look at the two of them and left the two, pursed their lips, and exited the courtyard.

time to afternoon.

A thin, one-armed young man with a hideous scar on his face came to the yard, and respectfully shouted, "Master..."

"Alang, you are here, I let you...your right arm..."

Long Peng casually put down a Taoist classic in his hand, and before he finished speaking, he saw Ah Lang's empty right arm, and couldn't help frowning, he said slowly, "Did you lose it in the desert?"

A Lang nodded and raised his head, only then did Long Peng realize that he was unshaven, tired, and much more decadent.

Also.

For a martial arts practitioner, especially if he still uses a knife, breaking his right arm is equivalent to losing [-]% of his martial arts skills.

"How is your left hand used to?"

A-Lang looked down at his gauze-wrapped left hand, laughed at himself, and then said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, although my subordinates have no previous martial arts, they can still serve you."

Long Peng was silent for a while, then slowly said, "For now, don't rush to practice swordsmanship, start with small things first, and when you get used to it, practice swordsmanship with your left hand. At that time, I will teach you a left-handed swordsmanship. If you are talented enough, you may be better than yourself a few months ago!"

heard.

A Lang was stunned, but he didn't expect that he would be seen through by Long Peng so easily. He couldn't help feeling bitter and flustered. He couldn't bear to climb from the bottom to his current position, and didn't want to just give up, but after hearing the words, a warm current surged in his heart, and he was a little excited, "Master, you are willing to teach me martial arts."

"After following me for so long, have you ever seen me break my promise?"

"Thank you, dear guest!!"

A Lang was so excited, his eyes were slightly red, he immediately knelt down and bowed respectfully.

"Get up, calm down, and remember what I told you, don't rush, take your time."

"My subordinate understands."

"Okay, now for business."

Long Peng sat up, stared at him, and asked, "Is there any news about the person I told you to watch earlier?"

"Have."

A Lang nodded and recalled, "It's still reported from everywhere. The dragon girl returned to the ancient tomb three months ago, but she didn't stay long, she left the ancient tomb and came to the west. It seems that she wants to come to Tianshan. After that..."

"What happened after that?" Long Peng asked.

"After that, there was no news about her..."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to notice that Long Peng's face was not right, and immediately said, "However, my subordinate has re-contacted the branch banners in various places a few days ago, and there should be news about Miss Long soon."

Long Peng nodded, frowning tightly, and asked in a cold voice, "Has the Blood Saber Gate gone?"

last year.

After Xiaolongnv separated from Long Peng, she and Yang Guo met the old thief who was the ancestor of the blood knife.

When you get the news.

Long Peng was still in the Tianshan Mountains, and he couldn't move away, so he asked someone to communicate with the "Great Wheel of Light" Jiumozhi.

Let him Daxue Mountain Dalun Temple and the people he sent to encircle and suppress the Xuedaomen together.

"This... the Blood Knife Gate is gone, but the old blood knife demon was too cunning and let him escape. However, he was seriously injured when he escaped, and he may be recuperating in some corner now."

Long Peng frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Let people intensify the search."

"My subordinate understands."

A Lang nodded, and said again, "By the way, Mr. Ke, our main rudder is now located on Mount Tai, and the leader also said..."

A Lang stopped suddenly, his face a little embarrassed.

"Don't babble, speak quickly."

heard.

A Lang repeatedly said yes, and after a moment of deliberation, he observed Long Peng's face, and said slowly, "The leader said, if you wake up, you should quickly return to Islam and don't run around outside. If the leader didn't come in time this time, the grass on your grave would be three feet high. The leader also said at the time, you are just..."

"Okay, don't say anything."

Long Peng raised his hand to interrupt, unable to bear to listen anymore, he was silent for a moment, and asked, "Is the leader not injured?"

A Lang shook his head quite honestly, "No, the leader is so powerful that no one can stop him. As soon as he arrived in that ancient city, he scared away the group of snakes and rats."

Long Peng nodded slightly, feeling relieved, Dongfang Bubai told him earlier that he couldn't come, although he didn't say the reason, but he could vaguely guess that it should be the emperor master from Meng Yuan who made the move.

At that time she was able to come, Long Peng thought she was paying a certain price to force Basiba back.

Now it seems that it should be another matter.

"My dear guest, look, when will we become Muslim?"

Long Peng asked, "How many days until the news from my senior sister arrives?"

heard.

A Lang calculated carefully, and said in a deep voice, "The news about Miss Long will arrive in three days at the latest."

"Then leave in March."

Long Peng nodded, and said again, "By the way, you said that three months ago I...my senior sister, my senior sister returned to the ancient tomb, was she alone?"

A Lang was stunned for a moment, thought carefully, and then replied, "It is indeed a person."

"Where is my senior nephew, the guy named Yang who has been following my senior sister?"

"He... this, the subordinates also know..."

"Why?"

A Lang looked embarrassed, and it took a while before he said awkwardly, "You didn't order to pay attention to that surnamed Yang, so the subordinate didn't waste manpower."

"My dear guest, you want to find the person surnamed Yang. If that's the case, this subordinate will give you instructions."

"No need, let him die."

"This... this subordinate obeys the order, then this subordinate will step back."

"Ah."

Long Peng nodded, and when Ah Lang was about to walk out of the yard, he seemed to have thought of something and raised his hand, "Forget it, let someone keep an eye on that Yang."

"This... this subordinate understands..."

A Lang sighed in his heart, he just wanted to say that it is not easy to work under Da Keqing...

At this time.

Granny Sun walked over slowly with a cane, "Xiao Mumu, you are still in good shape, so you are leaving?"

"Grandma..."

Long Peng supported her to sit down, and said with a smile, "There is probably something waiting for me over there, besides, I can't always rest, eat and sleep, sleep and eat, right?
If so, then life is too boring. "

Grandma Sun was stunned for a moment, then laughed and cursed, "Stinky boy, are you talking about me, an old woman?"

"Hahaha...that's not the case, grandma, don't slander me."

"Stinky boy, see if I don't teach you a lesson today."

Grandma Sun made an angry look, picked up her crutches and hit Long Peng's buttocks. The crutches seemed to have a lot of force when they were raised, and they made the sound of drinking and drinking, but they really fell on Long Peng, but they were light and feathery.

Grandma Sun, after all, was reluctant to beat Long Peng, she just looked fierce.

Cheng Lingsu watched, shook his head helplessly, and then joined the chase himself.

Finally, after three hundred rounds of the battle, she and Grandma Sun worked together to "subdue" the dragon pendant...

Three days later.

Cuiyuxuan.

A Tianshan Child Elder with a pretty appearance but a petite figure like an eight or nine-year-old girl raised her eyes slightly.

"Child Elder, this junior has come to say goodbye to you."

"Why, it didn't take long for you to get busy?"

Tianshan Child Elder looked Long Peng up and down for a while, seeing his white hair fluttering in the wind, she shook her head, "The ten years you have lost your life at least..."

"Hehe... Maybe I will make up for it that day."

"It's beautiful to think about."

Tianshan Child Elder rolled her eyes, looked at Long Peng with contempt, she considered for a moment, and said slowly, "When the body is more stable, ask the little girl to prescribe some warming medicine for strengthening the body, otherwise, it will be a pity if you die young."

"Junior understands."

"What happened last time was considered to be a favor owed by grandma. I saw that you are surrounded by cold and murderous people. How can you know how to take care of people? You just sent a group of maids who can serve people.

You use it first, when you are almost recovered, if they want to come back, they can come back, if they don’t want to come back, please take it away, don’t treat them badly..."

Long Peng was stunned for a moment, a little speechless, opened his mouth, and just about to refuse, he heard Tianshan Child Elder repeatedly waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, let's go down the mountain."

"This……"

Long Peng sighed helplessly, had no choice but to back out, thinking about how to arrange those people.

Listen to him go away.

Tianshan Child Elder opened one, hummed and smiled, and then slowly closed her eyes.

……

Down the mountain.

Looking at the hundreds of Yingying and Yanyan, Long Peng's scalp felt a little numb. At this moment, he saw an old woman about 50 or [-] years old coming over. She bent slightly and said with a smile, "Mr. Long, according to Child Elder's instructions, we will be responsible for your daily necessities."

"You... seem to be called Granny Yu, right? Child Elder sent you down too?"

The old lady was a little surprised, then she nodded with a smile, "Mr. Long has a good memory.

Don't worry, the old lady and her subordinates have served people for half a lifetime, and they are well versed in this way, so they will definitely not disappoint the husband. "

After finishing speaking, she pointed to Yingying and Yanyan who were gathered around a luxurious carriage, "Mr. Long, how are you?"

"Also... Han Xing..."

The corners of Long Peng's mouth twitched, wondering in his heart whether Tianshan Child Elder was trying to trick him on purpose, he looked towards Cheng Lingsu, saw her face turned sideways immediately, and felt a burst of heartache.

"Ahem...Jinfeng, come and get along with Granny Yu."

Long Peng quickly pulled out his capable general, and then walked quickly to Cheng Lingsu, "Lingsu, get in the car."

"Ah."

Cheng Lingsu responded with a buzzing sound, and followed Long Peng up to the carriage with jade-carved windows and gold-thread embroidered curtains, and saw two proud servant girls saying, "Mr. Long."

"cough--"

Long Peng was speechless, now he was sure Tianshan Child Elder was messing with him, he slandered in his heart, "You're so old, but you're still so generous, it's not because I don't want that old man Wu Yazi not to come back, so why are you venting your anger on me..."

Yes.

Before leaving Tianshan last year, Long Peng got news about Wu Yazi, but he didn't tell Tianshan Child Elder.

I don't know how to know her at all, anyway, last year she was very angry for a long time.

Long Peng originally thought he had forgotten all about it, but she still remembered
