Martial Arts: This world is different

Chapter 388 Toast
When Lin Hu came to the door, he saw a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe, with a long beard and an extraordinary bearing. Lin Hu recognized him at a glance, and immediately stepped forward to say hello.

"Coach Ye, it's been a long time. I don't know what kind of fragrant wind brought you here?"

It was Ye Xiu, the coach of the King of Han's Mansion, the current master of the Kongtong School, the "Star Picker" Ye Xiu. At that time, he saw that the other party was full of joy: "Lin Zhenfu, you are welcome. I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much. I just have a free day today." , so I would like to invite Lin Zhenfu out for a few drinks, I wonder if you would do me a favor?"

Lin Hu knew that Ye Xiu was a night owl entering the house this time, so there must be no good things, but since the other party was polite, he had no reason to refuse. In fact, he also wanted to use this to test the specific movements of the Han Palace, so Lin Hu immediately said : "Teacher Ye is serious, you are a senior in Jianghu, since you want to invite, Lin will definitely accompany you."

Just like that, Lin Hu greeted Batu and the others, and followed Ye Xiu to a tavern near the Yamen. The two asked for a private room, ordered some food and wine, and ate and talked inside.

"By the way, since the last time the palace left, Lin Zhenfu has been promoted again and again, and Ye has no chance to congratulate him. Today, I just took the opportunity to offer Lin Zhenfu a glass. You must reward me."

Ye Xiu picked up the jug and poured wine for Lin Hu. Out of politeness, Lin Hu raised his glass and went up to take it. Ye Xiu leaned the mouth of the jug on Lin Hu's cup. The usual behavior was not unusual in the eyes of outsiders, but Lin Hu felt as if a big stone had been crushed on the wine glass at that time, and it was extremely powerful. Only then did he realize that Ye Xiu had no bad intentions.

In fact, even if Lin Hu withdrew his hand at this time, it was nothing more than being drunk and looking a little embarrassed, but Lin Hu is also a martial arts practitioner, so he was inevitably a little competitive. Under the pressure, the glass of wine hardly spilled at all.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu frowned at first, and then he couldn't help showing emotion: "Sure enough, the waves of the Yangtze River push forward the waves, and the new generation replaces the old in this world."

If there was a third person present at that time, most of them would have felt that Ye Xiu's words were a bit inexplicable, but both Lin and Ye knew what was going on in their hearts. At that time, Ye Xiu slowly put down the wine pot, and Lin Hu got up He said to the other party: "I have long admired the name of the teacher Ye, and I have just learned about it, and it really is worthy of the name. This glass of wine should be respected by the younger generation."

After hearing this, Ye Xiu also raised his wine glass, and said with a smile, "Young people like Lin Zhenfu are too polite. I'm getting old. It seems that the world is dominated by young people like you."

The two clinked glasses, and then drank it down. Lin Hu put down the wine glass and sat back in his seat. In his impression, Ye Xiu was a well-known senior in the rivers and lakes. But at that time, Lin Hu still subconsciously touched the "Lingxi Pill" he carried in his arms, and he had to take it immediately if something happened.

At this time, Ye Xiu also took his seat, and said with a smile: "Lin Zhenfu, there are no outsiders here, so Ye Mou just cut to the chase. This time, I came to see you at the order of the Han King Qiansui. As for why, I think you should know it well." Ming?"

As soon as Lin Hu heard that this was going straight to the point, he immediately said, "If this junior is right, it's because of the case of the Eastern Palace?"

Ye Xiu nodded: "Qiantui is quite dissatisfied with Lin Zhenfu and you for not being able to do things well. To be honest, Lord Qiantui lost his temper in front of us when we arrived. What does this mean? Lin Zhenfu, you are so smart , I don’t think I need to elaborate, do I?”

Lin Hu smiled wryly: "That's natural, the two packs of tea leaves yesterday must have been Chitose's warning to me, right?"

Ye Xiuwen looked at Lin Hu, his eyes were meaningful: "But it seems that Lin Zhenfu doesn't seem to be right for you?"

Lin Hu replied: "That's just a coincidence."

Ye Xiu picked up a chopstick and put it in his bowl: "Lin Zhenfu, you have been in the officialdom for a long time, and you don't need Ye to explain many reasons to you. Hanwang Qiantose actually valued you a lot, so don't let him down." The old one is painstaking."

Lin Hu replied: "Teacher Ye can tell the King of Han for me. I dare not forget Qiantui's kindness of knowing you, and I will try my best to do what he arranges. It's just that the world is not as good as it should be. , I hope the King of Han can give us some more time."

Ye Xiuwen heard and said: "I can bring it for you, but Lin Zhenfu, since everyone is a martial arts practitioner, I kindly remind you that it will not end well if you go against the king of Han, and even eat the inside and outside. Well, regardless of the wine just now, these are just warnings, Hanwang Qiansui will not show mercy to traitors."

If the previous incidents were just side-stepping, then Ye Xiu's words were undoubtedly a direct warning. Lin Hu put a chopstick of food into his mouth as if nothing had happened, and after swallowing it, he smiled and said: " This junior definitely doesn't have the guts, I hope Chitose and Coach Ye can rest assured."

"I hope so." After that, Ye Xiu didn't talk about this matter with Lin Hu anymore. The two chatted about anecdotes and martial arts. Xing is the two great masters around King Han, but its strength is unknown. Lin Hu couldn't help but feel that it was an eye-opener. In his opinion, what Ye Xiu learned was enough to compare with Emei Erbai. Compared with Shu Shi Fazong and others, he can be regarded as a first-class master in today's martial arts.

And through this conversation, Ye Xiu couldn't help but look at Lin Hu with admiration. It was obvious that this young man had learned more than he expected, and he was even faintly close to him. At first, the two of them were a little wary of each other, but after that But the chatter became more and more speculative, and the drink lasted until the afternoon.

Finally, Ye Xiu looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, so Ye will take his leave first."

When Lin Hu heard this, he hurriedly got up to see him off, and when he reached the entrance of the tavern, Ye Xiu took Lin Hu's hand, leaned close to him and said, "I hope Lin Zhenfu can take care of you for what I said today, Ye Xiu really doesn't care. Willing to be your enemy."

Lin Hu understood it when he heard it, and immediately said with a smile: "To each other."

Just like this, the two broke up, and seeing each other go far, Lin Hu couldn't help sighing, feeling that the mountains and rains are about to come, Lin Hu pondered for a while, turned his head and wanted to go back to the Yamen, but he saw it not far away at a glance Nangong Shaoqing, seeing the other party's expression seemed to be worried about himself, came to see what happened, Lin Hu couldn't help being moved at that time, and hurried up to meet him.

"How did you come?"

"Don't worry, come over and have a look. I heard from Batu that someone from Han Palace is looking for you?"

Lin Hu pointed to the direction Ye Xiu left: "This person just left, Ye Xiu, the coach of the Han Palace."

"Ye Xiu!?" Nangong Shaoqing was taken aback when he heard the name.

"Is it that "Star Picker" Ye Xiu from the Kongtong faction?"

Lin Hu nodded: "That's him."
