Taiping Inn

After coming down the mountain, the little girl was no longer carried by Li Xuandu. Standing next to Li Xuandu, she saw Hu Liang's chivalrous demeanor again and subconsciously glanced at Li Xuandu next to her.

The little girl's idea was very simple. Uncle Hu Liang had to listen to her brother in everything. Her brother was naturally more powerful than Uncle Hu Liang. Since Uncle Hu Liang was so powerful, how powerful would her brother be? Could he really be the best in the world?

Even if he was not the best in the world now, he would be one day in the future.

Li Xuandu had seen the vastness of the world and the depth of the rivers and lakes, so even if he was a genius, he did not dare to say that he would be able to secure a place on the Old Xuan List in the future. Throughout the ages, there have been too many geniuses and geniuses who were drowned in this world. Even he, in the battle of Dijing a few years ago, almost repeated this mistake. What he said to the little girl before about being the best in the world was more of a joke.

But the little girl's idea was very firm and persistent, even firmer than Li Xuandu.

On the other side, Hu Liang and the third manor owner exchanged pleasantries and then got to the point, "This is Lingxiu Mountain, and Manor Master Wang is from Lingxiu Villa, so I guess the villa is not far away?"

Wang Lie hesitated slightly and smiled, "Of course, my villa is on the North Mountain, not far from here."

He turned and pointed to the mountain road he came from, "Go up this mountain road, and it will only take half an hour to reach Lingxiu Villa. If Mr. Hu is willing to condescend, why not go to the villa to have a chat."

This was originally a polite remark. Most of the time, people of Hu Liang's status would not really go there, or they would refuse on the pretext of being in a hurry, or they would say they had something important to do, but he Unexpectedly, Hu Liang did not follow the routine because of Li Xuandu, but directly said: "Since Master Wang invited you, then Hu will be disrespectful, otherwise it would be disrespectful to Master Wang?"

"In this case, we can't force Master Hu to stay, so let's say goodbye..." Before he finished speaking, the expression on Wang Lie's face suddenly froze, and he raised his head suddenly, looking at Hu Liang, and said in disbelief: "Just now Master Hu said he wanted to go to our Lingxiu Villa?!"

Hu Liang smiled and nodded: "Since Master Wang invited you sincerely, Hu naturally has no reason to refuse."

At this moment, Wang Lie wanted to slap himself. Now the situation is unclear, why would he provoke a powerful dragon crossing the river? If he really wants to invite him back now, what if it is another Chen Guhong, what should he do? At that time, it will be easy to invite gods and difficult to send them away. Even the last Beishan foundation has been lost. Wouldn't he be the eternal sinner of the villa?

But the words were spoken by myself, there is no reason to take them back.

It is better to keep silent than to say anything. If you don't say a word, you are the master of that word, and if you say it, you are the slave of that word. Now that the words have been spoken, if you regret it immediately, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of this hero Hu? He is such a person, and he is condescending to be invited to Lingxiu Villa for a chat. If you regret it, it will be a trick. In the martial arts world, hitting someone is a grudge, but slapping someone in the face is a deadly feud. Wasn't it because the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal challenged someone and slapped him in the face that he caused the martial arts feud that stretched across most of Jiangbei?

Thinking of this, Wang Lie felt that he was in a dilemma, like sitting on wax. He wanted to regret and refuse, but he didn't have the courage. Suddenly, he remembered the direction the three people came from. He was moved and said with a stiff upper lip: "May I ask, hero Hu, are you coming from Nanshan Garden?"

Hu Liang nodded.

Wang Lie suddenly felt that the view in front of him was suddenly clear. It can be said that after a long journey, there is always a way out. Everything made sense. Nanshan Garden had such a big commotion, most likely because someone came to beat them up. And this Northwest Knife Master Hu happened to appear here, so it was probably related to this matter. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. If this is true, then it is not impossible to invite this Master Hu to Lingxiu Villa for a chat. Maybe we can take this opportunity to regain the foundation of Nanshan.

Thinking of this, Wang Lie was no longer embarrassed and smiled, "Everyone who comes is a guest. Since Master Hu is willing to condescend to the villa for a chat, then Lingxiu Villa will certainly entertain you warmly. Master Hu, please!"

The three followed the people from Lingxiu Villa, crossed the river valley, and went up the mountain road to Lingxiu Villa, which was located far away from Beishan and Nanshan Garden.

The mountain road of Beishan is relatively gentle, not as steep as that of Nanshan. With Zhou Shuning's strength, she can barely climb it.

All along the way, Li Xuandu deliberately stayed at the end of the team to take care of Zhou Shuning who was climbing alone. Hu Liang and Wang Lie were at the front of the team, and they chatted and explored each other.

Wang Lie wanted to know whether Hu Liang was related to the Nanshan Garden incident, and also wanted to confirm whether Hu Liang was the real Northwest Knife.

Hu Liang explored the background of Lingxiu Villa.

The owner of Lingxiu Villa was surnamed He. He had lived in Jiuhe Mansion in Luzhou for generations. It was said that his ancestors were once elders of Taiping Sect. Because of the care of Taiping Sect, they could afford such a large business. However, the He family could not escape the clichés of many aristocratic families. One generation was worse than the next, and there was no successor. Now there is no Xiantian master in the family.

It is said that the old owner has the cultivation level of Xuanyuan Realm, and is only one step away from the legendary innate realm. He is one of the best masters in this Jiuhe Prefecture. With the backer of Taiping Sect, there is no one else. Dare to mess with. But no one expected that after Emperor Muzong passed away, Taiping Sect completely blocked the mountain, and few disciples walked in the world, so naturally the people at the foot of the mountain could not go to Taiping Sect. In this way, Lingxiu Villa had no backing.

Originally, with the old owner's Xuanyuan Realm cultivation, he could barely maintain it. But at this moment, Chen Guhong came to Jiuhe Mansion. Although Chen Guhong had fallen to the bottom of the Innate Realm at this time, he After all, he was a person who had touched the threshold of Guizhen Realm, and he was able to deal with a Xuanyuan Realm with ease. After a fierce battle, the old owner was seriously injured and died several months later.

After the new owner of the manor, He Jin became the manor, he was inferior to the old owner, both cultivation and qualifications and prestige, and it was even more difficult to assume the responsibility of the manor. Finally, under the threat of Chen Guhong several times, he had to Half of the foundation has been cedeed, which is today's Nanshan Garden.

Although Li Xuandu was at the last position of the team, he was always listening to the conversation between the two without missing a word.

He was very moved at this time.

He never expected that the good deeds he had unintentionally saved people would have planted such a bad result. Not only did he survive the consequences many years later, but he also affected the He family in Lingxiu Villa, which had been entrenched in Jiuhe Prefecture for many years. Because of it, it cannot recover. Wang Lie, the owner of the third villa, would not have thought that the decline of Lingxiu Villa actually originated from the famous Zifu Sword Immortal.

As the saying goes, things in the world are impermanent and fate is a mess of people.

The second half of the mountain road has been paved with bricks and stones, and even railings are provided. It is surrounded by a man-planted bamboo forest. The atmosphere is quiet, and it means "winding paths and secluded", which is quite elegant. After turning a few more turns, the bamboo forest disappeared, and there were plum trees everywhere, with dense branches and leaves. Although it is not the time for plum blossoms to bloom, you can imagine that the day when the cold plum blossoms bloom, the scene of fragrant snow like the sea here will definitely be endless.

After passing through a large plum forest, I finally arrived at the end of the mountain road. There is a wide plain paved with bluestone slabs, located halfway up the northern mountain of Lingxiu Mountain. Standing here, you can see a bluestone slab road leading directly to a large manor with rich doors and white walls. Although it is not as magnificent as Nanshan Garden, it is a bit more elegant. It can be seen that when the Taiping Sect master built two manors, he mostly wanted to use Nanshan's manor as a place to entertain guests and socialize in Beishan. The manor is your own place to live.

Wang Lie stopped, pointed to the manor in the distance, and introduced to Hu Liang, "Hiss Hu, this is Lingxiu Villa."

Hu Liang also stopped, pressed his knife with one hand, looked at the manor that intended to imitate the Jiangnan style, and said, "Okay, it's really good. It's much better than the Nanshan Garden that Chen Guhong tinkered with. .”
