Chapter 42: So-called arena

Chapter 42 The So-called Jianghu
Jin Shiding? Wouldn't it just open the door like this? Xue Mu tried to sense the palm pattern, but did not respond.
While looking at it, Xue Qingqiu said in a voice transmission: "Don't be ashamed, Zhen Shiding's imitations are nothing more than a little breath."
Xue Mu nodded and stepped into the door with her.
Xiahoudi stood in the gate waiting, accompanied by two people. A man with long hair and a shawl is quite heroic, wearing a six-door uniform with a jade medallion on his waist. Another feminine, white-faced youth, looks very damn, his clothes don't look like six doors. When the two saw Xue's sister and brother entering the door, they both arched their hands: "The distinguished guest is here, I have not waited far to welcome me, it is rude."
Xiahoudi flicked his cloak, turned and walked in: "Don't play with those imaginary things, Sect Master Xue won't talk about that. Come in."
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a flagpole towering into the clouds. There were several heads hanging on the flagpole, bloody, and the heads and faces were like alive. Even the expression of shock before death was completely preserved.
Suddenly seeing a fresh head, the disgusting impact is not something that can be experienced by watching TV. Xue Mu's stomach twitched, and he almost didn't vomit. Fortunately, I didn't eat, my stomach was empty, and I didn't vomit so easily, so I didn't show any shame.
Xue Qingqiu turned a blind eye and walked through the flagpole indifferently. Xiahoudi led the way, and the scarlet cloak fluttered backwards, looking as in Xue Mu's eyes.
Xiahoudi’s banquet was in the six-door headquarters side hall, which meant about formal official-face cooperation and official banquet. It's like a modern official business, when brother units invite to visit and eat the canteen? About the same meaning, it signifies a kind of intimacy, and also the heart of Xue Mu. If this kind of banquet is to kill people, if this kind of thing spreads, six doors will be jokes on the rivers and lakes to grandma's house, but not As a last resort, this will not be a bad move.
Entering the side hall, the furnishings are also solemn and simple, and a small round table is placed, which can accommodate five or six people.
Xiahoudi sat down first and said casually: "Sit, there is no host or guest position, trouble."
Xue Qingqiu and Xue Mu sat side by side. The feminine young man and the heroic man looked at each other, their expressions were a little weird, and they didn't say anything, and sat with them in the remaining space.
Both sides are looking at them, thinking different things.
Conventionally, when two people go to a banquet, they will naturally sit around the host separately, which is the meaning of host and guest. But the siblings didn’t talk about this, they actually sat next to each other... They said they didn’t talk about etiquette, but the attitude was not very similar, they always thought they just wanted to sit together... Are you really sister and brother?
Xue Mu didn't think of this kind of gossip. Seeing the jade medallion on the waist of the Yingwu man, he remembered that "Memorabilia" made up Xue Qingqiu to kill three gold medal catchers. From this point of view, perhaps the color of the brand is the level mark in the six doors. For example, the jade medal for this kind of cooperation should be the highest level. Xiahoudi means left and right hands, and the gold medal ranks second.
You can’t make Xue Qingqiu kill the jade card, because the jade cards are all powerful and well-known, and you can’t write a few of them properly. Besides, the death of the jade card also shakes the prestige of six doors, so you can only die the gold... …Thinking of this, Xue Mu suddenly felt that the publication of Six Doors is not bad. A detail reflects the Basic Law. Shouldn’t it be a government department? This posture level is obviously higher than the underworld of Xingyuezong.
Soon there was a servant-like appearance and began to serve wine and food, and it was only at this moment that Xue Qingqiu took a glass of wine and said: "I'm late this time, everyone has been waiting for a long time."
The heroic man shook his head and said: "Actually, it didn't take long. Someone of us has to deal with something in Xunhuan Pavilion, and we just came back.
Xue Qingqiu looked at him with a somewhat cautious expression: "As far as this seat is concerned, although there are many people who enter the Taoist way through the six doors, the only person with the void is the only one."
The heroic man arched his hands with a solemn expression: "Xuan Zhe has seen Sect Master Xue and has long admired his name."
"It really is Wei Suhou." Xue Qingqiu smiled and turned around to introduce to Xue Mu: "The first master of the six doors, famous. It seems that the six doors are quite sincere this time."
Hollow? Marquis? Looking at the court and the arena, it is considered a super boss. Xue Mu hurriedly said for a long time, secretly thinking that Xiahoudi, a young girl who can hold six doors, was mostly the result of this big man's full support. No wonder Xiahoudi was speculated to be the illegitimate daughter of the emperor, and it seemed that she did have such a flavor.
The feminine youth smiled and said, "This is the sincerity of the court."
Xue Qingqiu nodded: "This must be the Venerable Grandpa Li?"
The feminine young man raised his glass and signaled: "It is our family, the man in the palace, who is insulting and insulting to the suzerain."
Xue Mu understands, no wonder he has a feminine temperament. He turned out to be an eunuch...The is also known as the Venerable Flower, so what...
"It's like Leiguaner." Xue Qingqiu didn't care whether someone was an eunuch, lifted a corner of the veil, and took a sip of wine with a toast.
The opening atmosphere was pretty good. Xue Qingqiu's face-to-face was obviously because he knew the overall significance of the banquet. There were even people in the palace, and the strong and the marquis were to accompany him. Obviously, it was not the time to pretend to be forced.
Xue Mu also offered a cup of expressive thoughts. Seeing that the ceremony was over, Xue Mu continued along with what he said just now: "What is the result of Xunhuan Pavilion?"
Then Grandpa Li glanced at Xue Mu, with a peculiar sense of inquiry in his eyes, but he gave a "glamorous" smile on his face: "The Hehuan Sect has suffered a great loss, but there is a big prince who turns around, but nothing People were killed or injured. But Young Master Xue is afraid to pay more attention recently. Now everyone is reminiscing about Young Master's plan. It is hard to guarantee that someone will record their grudges on Young Master."
"I'm drifting in the rivers and lakes, how can you come without being knifed." Xue Mu seemed to say casually: "I have my sister to protect me in matters of the rivers and lakes. If it is from the court...Anyway, Xiahou will always arrest and protect me. I."
Xiahou Di Xia Ran: "The cooperation between you and me belongs to cooperation. For things outside of cooperation, why should I protect you?"
Xue Muyou said: "Didn't the chief arrester Xiahou tell me the two or three things about the prince? Xue is just a master catcher once, and the chief catcher can't cross the river and demolish the bridge."
Li Gonggong and Xuan Zhe glanced at each other, their expressions were a little cautious, Xue Qingqiu looked at them, and flashed a smile. In fact, she has always understood the matter of being a gunman, but she has to do it for herself. At this moment, seeing everyone's reaction, she is obviously in the middle. What about this feeling... Finally, she felt that she was not better than Xue. How much is the difference in the pastoral care? I want to go together, and I was quite relieved. If it's always like when Baihuayuan was messed up just now, he didn't have any ideas and Xue Mu just handled it. In the long run, I don't know if he will suspect that he is mentally retarded.
Xiahoudi squinted his eyes, looked at Xue Mu for a while, and then sighed: "In fact, I have always thought that people like Master Xue should not belong to the world, but it is a pity not to be in the court. If you are interested, I can. Refer you for a job."
Xue Qingqiu's expression instantly turned sharper.
"Then there is no need." Xue Mu laughed before Xue Qingqiu's attack and raised his glass to signal: "Xue has no interest in Chaotang. But now I am friends with Xiahou President, if anything works for Xue Some place, just ask."
"Oh?" Xiahoudi raised his glass, paused to his lips but didn't drink, and whirled slightly: "Take the matter of the eldest prince, why did Mr. Xue help me if he didn't enter the court? I'm afraid it's even our dispute. I don’t know."
Although he expressed doubts, "this seat" has become "me", which is considered to be a recognition of Xue Mu's meaning of "friend". Xue Mu smiled: "On the ground of the capital, law and order is not easy, and the brothers below ran and broke their legs. Some benefits should be gained."
Xiahoudi was still spinning the cup, staring at Xue Mu with sharp eyes and waiting for the next step.
Xuan Zhe also looked solemn and paid great attention to this topic.
Xue Mu continued: "Originally, the Qinlou Chuguan Hotel and Casino, it was easier to find a sibling by catching the government officials more or less... But some princes and relatives played a monopoly, and the brothers lost their benefits. It's been a long time. The head catcher is in his place, and it should be something for the brothers."
Xiahoudi was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head, drank his glass of wine, and motioned to Xue Mu: "The young man is quite knowledgeable about the affairs of the subordinates and the market, which is unexpected. It is not like ordinary people from the rivers and lakes. , Most of them don't pay attention to the subordinate staff."
The implication was to admit the contradiction between himself and the prince. As Xue Mu analyzed, at least this was one of the reasons.
Xue Mu also finished drinking and said with a smile: "Although Xue is in the arena, there are rivers and lakes where there are people. The truth is often the same."
Xiahoudi shook his head and smiled: "That's right."
Xue Mu suddenly said: "But I think there is another sentence, always catching heads is more like listening."
Xia Houdi really paid more attention to Xue Mu's words at this moment, and asked seriously: "Which sentence?"
Xue Mu added wine to himself, and said leisurely: "The rivers and lakes are only a corner of the country."
Xiahoudi's beautiful eyes flashed brightly, Xuan Zhe tightly squeezed the wine glass, and the two moved at the same time.
The rivers and lakes are only a corner of the country, how can the people of the rivers and lakes surpass the court? Isn't this what Xiahou Di Xuanzhe wanted in his life? Xue Mu's simple sentence was as straight as a sharp sword piercing the bottom of the two of them, like drinking alcohol.
Li Gonggong glanced at Xue Qingqiu with an unpredictable expression. In the scene, Xue Mu was whistling and crooked. As the lord of a sect, Xue Qingqiu let him play like a little daughter-in-law. He didn't say a word. This simply subverted the cognition. But at this moment, Grandpa Li understands why Xue Mu can take the initiative. You can see that even the host and guest of these six doors have been transposed. What is strange about Xue Mu being able to dominate in front of his sister?
This Xue Mu was called a if he didn't enter the Xingyue Sect. He didn't use any exercises, just casual words, and he could reach the most vulnerable part of the human heart. What is the difference between the effect and Kuiye?
