Dao fruit.

Da da da……

Amidst the sound of horseshoes, a team of horses stopped in front of them. At a glance, there were about 20 people, all of whom were in high spirits. The horses were also tall and big without any variegation on their bodies.

As soon as this group of people stood there, there was a sturdy and tyrannical aura rushing towards them.

Lifting the curtain of the window of the carriage, Qiu Yan looked at this group of people and horses, let go of his perception, and soon realized that the people sitting on the horses were all close to the level of the peak of foundation establishment, and the leader was a person with a slightly smaller physique. He looks thin, but his spirit is restrained, and his energy and blood are not leaking. He is clearly a person in the second stage of life cultivation.

"These are all servants of my Meng family, they are here to welcome you." Meng Wei also saw the battle, and when he saw the leader who called himself Meng Ting, he introduced him aloud.

"Meng's family member?" Qiu Yan nodded, already understood.

The so-called servants, in the impression of many people, are just cutting flowers and sweeping the floor, but in fact, in many aristocratic families, the status of servants is not low. In terms of ethnicity, they belong to servants and subordinates, and enjoy a lot of benefits, which can be regarded as taking advantage of policy loopholes.

There are regulations in the country. Generally, rich and noble families can organize a certain amount of armed forces, but there are strict regulations on the number of people, and they have to report to the police, and they are often supervised. , called Jia Ding, is actually already a private armed force of the big clan.

This kind of situation is not only unique among the aristocratic families, the generals in the army are more familiar with it, and the frontier generals are the most important. Almost everyone has a large number of family members, and there are hundreds of them. Some servants are several grades higher than real officers and soldiers in terms of equipment, treatment, and food, which has attracted many soldiers to become naturalized private soldiers willingly.

Meng Ting and others are obviously the armed private soldiers of the Meng family. The Meng family is located on the border, and they are secretly doing business with the grassland.If there is no force support, with the nature of tigers and wolves of the grassland people, the business will not last long.

Here, after Meng Wei introduced to Qiu Yan.He got out of the carriage, walked towards the horse team, came under Meng Ting's horse, and said with a smile: "Why did the master send my brother here? This is to compete with my younger brother. It's hard for me to bring him with me. Mr. Xiuzhuan traveled through mountains and rivers, walked all the way, and was about to reach the place, but was stopped by his brother."

What he said seemed to be a complaint, but it was actually just a joke between brothers and friends.Naturally, Meng Ting would not be angry, instead he chuckled and said, "Recently, the area around here is not peaceful. A group of stupid thieves robbed the merchants here and there. The convoys of our Meng Mansion's exits were all robbed one after another. Patriarch Fearing that something might happen to Mr. when he crossed the border, he sent me to guard him."

"Is there a thief robbing the road?" Meng Wei felt a little surprised when he heard the news. Before he left the Meng family, he hadn't heard the news. "He even dared to intercept our Meng family's goods. Where did this stupid thief come from?"

Meng Ting said: "He came here from Hebei Road. We have accounted for and managed the local green forest. We have shared weal and woe with our Meng family for a long time. Only this foreign thief can be so dissatisfied. Open your eyes."

"Come here from Hebei Road?" Meng Wei just returned from Hebei Road.There is still a deep impression there, "In this way, it is likely to be composed of refugees, forced by livelihood..."

"The master of the family has also considered this matter. There have been arrangements, but we can't tolerate it," Meng Ting nodded, and then changed the topic, "Let's not talk about this for now, take me to see the master Xiuzhuan. At home, I also read the military strategy written by Master Xiuzhuan when he was in the Jiannan Road Township Examination. Much better."

"Your thoughts, don't I know?" Meng Wei laughed after hearing this, "You must still want to ask for a calligraphy, don't you? Although Master Xiuzhuan is now revered as a 'Confucian general', but He was the first to spread the name, but it is both calligraphy and painting."

"I really can't hide anything from my virtuous brother. You also know that my brother loves this piece of calligraphy very much. How can I let it go when I have such an opportunity?" While speaking, Meng Ting got off his horse and went with Meng Wei. The carriage goes.

In their mouths, the titles about Qiu Yan are actually called by the people. This is what the common people talk about the most. Nickname, catchy.

Moreover, the storytellers in the taverns and teahouses would often directly change the deeds of some people in the dynasty into scripts, and naturally there would be deletions, additions and changes. Over time, many names became popular.

The title of "Double Excellence in Calligraphy and Painting" was actually spread after Qiu Yan won the number one scholar. Originally, the leader of the number one scholar was called Wenwenquxiaxia, and it was also rumored that his calligraphy and painting skills were astonishing. It's amazing, and in the end, it was dubbed the title of both calligraphy and painting.

This kind of reputation is actually very enviable. Some people may think that they are not as good as Qiu Yan in learning, but they may not think that their calligraphy and painting skills are not as good as him. The news spread, and the title of "Confucian General" gradually became popular, and it overshadowed the double masters of calligraphy and painting, which calmed down the hidden dangers.

only……

"Confucian general?"

Hearing that Meng Ting, who was paying homage to him, also uttered such a name, Qiu Yan had a flash of light in his heart, Li Gua was startled, and he felt a slight deflection of luck.

"It seems that someone is making arrangements. The name of Confucian generals has the word 'Confucianism', but 'General' is the key. This is to extract me from Confucianism, cut off most of the human way, and confine me to military strategists."

There are hundreds of schools of humaneness, but to Darui, Confucianism is the most prominent learning. If you want to understand the mysteries of humaneness, you must have a place in Confucianism, but the title of "Confucian general" unintentionally associates him with The mainstream of Confucianism was split.

However, after thinking about it, Qiu Yan did not express these thoughts, and he also responded to Meng Ting's respect, but after Meng Ting saw Qiu Yan, he felt like seeing an idol in his heart, not like the original swaying Zi Ru, he couldn't say what he asked for the calligraphy, so he turned around and got on his horse, and escorted the convoy forward.

Regarding this, Meng Wei sighed secretly, but he also knew that it was not good to do this kind of thing, otherwise he would offend the two of them at once. After all, Qiu Yan's calligraphy skills were also spread in Da Rui, and the pen has a charm. Calligraphy can only be done by masters. If you ask such a person for calligraphy, if you don't ask for it in person, it can be regarded as rude.

In this way, the convoy moved forward and walked out of the border mountain area. It was about to enter the plain, but it still needed to pass through a forest. Be careful, since this forest is the best place to ambush, you must guard against it.

However, at the moment when he was about to enter the forest, he was stopped by Qiu Yan.

Qiu Yan stepped out of the carriage, looked up at the forest that was close at hand, the light and shadow in his eyes changed, he suddenly caught a bit of evil spirit in the forest, he understood the situation already, but in that evil spirit, there was still a trace that made him Feeling a familiar breath, vaguely connected with his own luck, in addition to this, there are other discoveries.

With a change of mind, Li Gua vibrated, Qiu Yan understood the relationship inside and knew the reason, so he called Meng Ting and others to stop.

"What orders does Master Xiuzhuan have?" Meng Ting asked respectfully, this time when Qiu Yan came back from the grassland, most of the people he met had this attitude, which was completely different from before.

"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly remembered that I have an appointment with a good friend in this forest, and I have to go there for a while, and you all wait here first." After saying this, his feet moved, and he was already several feet away. , Move again, into the forest.

Seeing Qiu Yan leaving in a smooth manner, Meng Ting and Meng Wei were both taken aback for a moment, followed by thoughtful thoughts.

"It seems that the rumors are not groundless, Master Xiuzhuan is really a real person who doesn't show his face..." After a while, Meng Ting just said such a sentence.

………………

Swish swish!

Although it is a small forest, except for merchant convoys, officers and soldiers seldom set foot in this kind of wilderness in this era. Therefore, Qiu Yan could feel the wilderness more and more after he deviated from the path in the forest after a few turns.

This smell can arouse the instincts of flesh and blood creatures, making them fearful, fearful, and wandering in the unknown, but it can also inspire wildness and ferocity, faintly evoking a sense of excitement.

People shuttled through the forest, the branches and leaves were driven to shake, and the sound of the wind was like an arrow piercing through the air, getting sharper and sharper.

Qiu Yan turned into a shadow and sprinted quickly without any hesitation or hesitation, obviously determined in a certain direction.

suddenly!

Whoosh!

A sharp piercing sound came from the side, and a slender shadow came along with it, it was a long arrow flying fast!

The arrow pointed coldly at Qiu Yan's face!Very fast!

Qiu Yan's eyes moved slightly, he raised his hand to grab the arrow body, and with a light pick of his fingers, he threw the long arrow back, the speed was even faster, with a "buzz", Lin Zhong passed Let out a scream.

Whoa!

Around, the bushes shook suddenly, and the vigorous figures broke through the forest one by one, and rushed towards Qiu Yan amidst the flying leaves!

In their hands, there is a cold glow.

"Don't use it for an ambush of this level." Shaking his head, Qiu Yan stretched and flicked his hands rapidly. The speed of his hands was as fast as lightning. After the swing, he looked like a butterfly wearing flowers, forming a series of afterimages in front of him .

Ping Pong Pong!

Amidst a series of sounds, the surrounding figures flew out one after another, flying in the sky, only one person was caught by Qiu Yan, held in his hand, and fell from the air with him.

Then, Qiu Yan cast his gaze towards a dense and dark grass.

clap clap clap!

In the grass, there was the sound of clapping and clapping.
