The gallantry waits Li Family, because pledges to fight to the death to protect the lord to confer nobility upon, the ancestor has no meritorious military service, an aristocratic family of generals does not have the meritorious military service approaching body, was not recognized by other favor general's families again, therefore cannot shoulder the heavy responsibility. 白马庄位于长安城北郊,良田千亩皆是李家的产业。忠勇候李家因为誓死护主封侯,祖上没什么战功,将门世家没战功傍身,再受恩宠其他将门也不认,所以一直没能担当重任。 Li Family does not want to fight for with Great Yue several warlord aristocratic family, obediently and honestly stays in the Chang'an development personal connection, nowadays head of household Li Baoyi is from three product Yunhui general, in martial artist position high Great Yue, is the deliberation hall high-ranking official. 李家也没想和大玥几个军阀世家争抢,老老实实呆在长安发展人脉,现如今家主李宝义官拜从三品云麾将军,在武人地位较高的大玥,也算是朝堂大员。 The Li Family eldest son guards the border pass in Southern Yue now, second son Li Tianlu according to the aristocratic family custom, is responsible for handling the family industry and Exceptional Longevity Street rich and powerful family juniors climbs the friendship, the function actually and Xiao Ting is similar. 李家的长子如今在南越镇守边关,次子李天戮按照世家的规矩,负责打理家族产业和魁寿街的豪门子弟攀交情,作用倒是和萧庭差不多。 White Horse Village said is a village, after a Li Family many years of construction, now already with botanical garden not different, because is the private garden does not develop to the tourist, only then took the written invitation to go. 白马庄说是农庄,经过李家多年的修建,如今已经和园林无异,因为是私园不对游人开发,只有拿了请帖才能进去。 In the afternoon. 下午时分。 The architectural complex in White Horse Village is peaceful, carries the tenant farmer of hoe to pace up and down on the field track, center main road often has the frame and steed to speed along. 白马庄内的建筑群安静祥和,扛着锄头的佃户在田野小道上来回走动,正中的大道时常有车架、骏马飞驰而过。 Outside the memorial arch of Zhuangzi, the guard of holding the blade inspects back and forth, the experts of hidden place also many following closely, have the guest to come, will then go forward to greet in the manager of market waiting warmly. 庄子的牌坊外,持刀的护卫来回巡视,暗处也不乏盯梢的高手,有客人过来,在庄口等待的管事便会上前热情迎接。 However, seemingly tranquil village, today's atmosphere somewhat is strange. 不过,看似宁静的农庄,今天的气氛却有些古怪。 In the White Horse Village main hall, two people take a seat on the side large round-backed wooden armchair, Zhu Chenglie of eagle claw gate stands in a hair graying old man behind, is similar to 78, but the old man finger joint is thick, the whole body muscle is more solid than Zhu Chenglie, a pair eagle-eyed fiery, has ‚seizes dragon’ Zhu Manlong of reputation. 白马庄正厅内,两人在侧面太师椅上就坐,鹰爪门的朱承烈站在一名头发斑白的老者身后,面向七八分相似,不过老者手指关节粗大,浑身肌肉比朱承烈还扎实,一双鹰眼炯炯有神,正是有‘擒龙手’美誉的朱满龙。 Opposite is teaching at a private school or as private tutor stretch/open tide who Hutai Street passes the back gate. What stretch/open tide hits passes the back fist, ‚is interlinked by two arms, the cold ball is well-known with neatness and dispatch’ Jianghu, transits the discipling from Youzhou Qi. Rushes to Chang'an unlike the Zhu Manlong one person alone, stretch/open tide is Youzhou Qi sends to teach the master of fist specially, is the earnest martial arts world blue blood. 对面的则是虎台街通背门的坐馆张潮。张潮打的是通背拳,以‘两臂相通,冷弹脆快’闻名江湖,师承幽州祁家。与朱满龙的孤身闯长安不同,张潮是幽州祁家专门派过来教拳的师傅,算是正儿八经的武林名门出身。 The main hall magnificently decorated building decoration is luxurious, what on the seat of honor of head sits is a young man, the sitting posture is at ease, the look is unruly, in the hand takes the wine glass to sway gently, is listening respectfully to two people of dialogues: 正厅雕梁画栋装饰奢华,上首的主位坐的是名年轻男子,坐姿闲散,眼神桀骜,手中拿着酒杯轻轻晃荡,聆听着二人的对话: „Vermilion gate lord, you determined that yesterday that person, used to pass in the back fist ‚golden dragon closes its mouth’?” “朱门主,你确定昨日那人,用了通背拳中的‘金龙合口’？” Speech naturally is stretch/open tide. Jianghu has the Jianghu custom, the aristocratic family also good school, martial learn/study the inheritance is not the minor matter, the father passes on child master passes on to disciple, famous expert grandmaster of noble character and high prestige, if thought that the apprentice son disposition is not positive, rotten will not rather teach to injure someone in the belly. 说话的自然是张潮。江湖有江湖的规矩,世家也好门派也罢,武学的传承都不是小事,父传子师传徒,德高望重的名家宗师,若是觉得徒弟儿子心性不正,宁可烂在肚子里也不会教出去害人。 But in various basically has several absolute technique, will not only look at others to hit one, without the master will teach by personal example, for a lifetime will be the flowery boxing. 而各门之中基本上都有几手绝学,不是光看别人打一遍就会的,没有师父言传身教,一辈子都是花拳绣腿。 Passes in the back fist ‚golden dragon closes its mouth’, is one of them. 通背拳中的‘金龙合口’,便是其中之一。 Zhu Manlong is carrying the teacup, the leaning head hints. 朱满龙端着茶杯,偏头示意。 Complexion morbid state pale Zhu Chenglie, arrived at the business hall to untie body martial clothing as before, the whole body shank meat showed in the cold air, obviously the back, chest and arm all had the silt azure scar. 脸色依旧病态苍白的朱承烈,走到大厅中央解开了身上的武服,浑身腱子肉在寒冷的空气中展现,可见后背、胸口、胳膊皆有淤青伤痕。 stretch/open tide puts down the teacup, nearby sets out to arrive sizes up the injury carefully, the brow is tight: 张潮放下茶杯,起身走到跟前仔细打量伤势,眉头紧蹙: „Truly is golden dragon closes its mouth, ten years have not trained hard, cannot use this crucial moment.” “确实是金龙合口,没有十年苦练,用不出这火候。” Zhu Chenglie closes the clothing, looks at the upward head: „That person is pursuing a compulsive gambler, inquired White Horse Village matter, Young Master Li you look......” 朱承烈合上衣衫,看向上首:“那人在追一个赌鬼,询问了白马庄的事儿,李公子您看……” Li Tianlu of swaying wine glass, gently snort/hum: 晃荡酒杯的李天戮,轻轻哼了一声: „Possibly was deceived the Jianghu person of money...... to listen to you saying that by the compulsive gambler martial arts is very high, provides against contingencies, on two gate main here dull several days , he so long as dares to rush, did not use.” “可能是被赌鬼骗了银子的江湖人……听你们说武艺很高,以防万一,两位门主在这里呆上几天,他只要敢闯进来,就不用出去了。” Zhu Manlong and stretch/open tide nod gently: „Young Master Li feels relieved then.” 朱满龙和张潮轻轻点头:“李公子放心即可。” Zhu Chenglie hesitated slightly under: „This person studies heterogeneous, the origin is not perhaps simple, if the people of government authorities......” 朱承烈稍微犹豫了下:“此人所学驳杂,来历恐怕不简单,若是官府的人……” „In Chang'an City, so long as is not behind the Exceptional Longevity Street three octagonal memorial arch people, must give this Young Master several points of thin surface.” “在长安城,只要不是魁寿街三座八角牌坊后面的人,都得给本公子几分薄面。” Li Tianlu look is unruly, snort/hum, set out to move toward outside the hall gently: „Two feel relieved to act, does not need to be overcautious and indecisive, has an accident this Young Master to capture for you.” 李天戮眼神桀骜,轻轻哼了一声,起身走向大厅外面:“两位放心出手,不用瞻前顾后,出了事本公子替你们兜着。” „Sees off Young Master Li!” “恭送李公子！” Zhu Manlong and stretch/open Chaojie is the nod...... 朱满龙和张潮皆是点头……
