C70

At the entrance to the small courtyard.

The two of them were dressed in the Yan Family's servant uniform. She wore a grey satin gown with a red sparrow's head embroidered on the chest.

A long beard to the waist, hale and hearty. One of them had a wide mouth and flat forehead, while the other had a vicious expression on his face.

The age difference between the two was quite large.

I said, "I am Ma Pi. Please lead the way."

The two of them did not reply. They bowed and stretched out their hands, making a "please" gesture.

The living quarters of the patriarch of Yan Family was a rather ancient and elegant building. The golden signboard had three words on it, "Scarlet Phoenix Restaurant". Her calligraphy skills were vigorous, and her words were just like her aura.

The phoenix, also known as the "Phoenix Emperor". Ancient legend of the king of birds, male "phoenix", female "phoenix."

Ah Da, Ah Er, they stopped at the door.

Ah Da said: "Master is upstairs, my brother's responsibility is done, please forgive me Young Master Ma."

I said, "Thank you for your hard work."

He straightened his clothes and slowly walked upstairs.

Ning Xiang was in a daze, her heart at peace.

Two chairs on each side, all made of sandalwood.

The main chair was actually a screen bed. It was covered with a luxurious carpet and burned with the fragrance of Calming Heart.

The golden phoenix was engraved on the screen. Flaming wings spread out extremely far, with the intention of soaring above the nine heavens.

An old man with a white beard and beard was lying on the bed.

A servant stood beside the bed. He was gentle and refined, with a hint of calligraphy.

Yan Bei was also there, sitting on the right side. There were three servants standing beside him, which should be A Si, Ah Wu and A Liu.

Although the old man was in low spirits, he still gave off a powerful aura.

I trembled slightly, my heart thumping.

After bowing, I said, "This little Ma Pi greets the Patriarch."

The old man coughed a few times, pointed to the wooden chair on the left and said, "There's no need to be so courteous, take a seat first."

I straightened up, walked slowly to the chair, and sat down slowly, very stiffly.

Yan Bei looked at me and nodded to show her respect.

I returned the greeting, not daring to say more. However, he was still thinking in his heart, thinking, "Aren't A Seven and A Ba his people? "How could it be gone without a trace?"

The old man said, "Xiao Ma, Nan told me about you. I've also agreed to his request and brought you to the Yan Residence. However, this seat isn't easy to sit in, so the reason I called you over is to test your skill. Are you willing? "

I said, "It's been a pleasure."

The old man smiled and coughed again. He waited until his anger returned to normal before saying, "Alright then, who wants to compete first?"

"I'll go first." A servant standing on Yan Bei's right said.

I stood up and faced him. He cupped his fist and said, "What can I do for you?"

He said, "I'm number six. I'm a rough guy. Since you don't have much work to do, I can only test you for martial arts. "If you win, you win. You understand very well."

I responded and slightly raised my left hand, using the "acanthopanax" as the starting point. His right hand slightly opened, using the first form of the "wind palmetto".

The two fists were more than capable of adapting, but they were lacking in purity.

Everyone present are all experts, and were able to see through the mystery in my palm with a single glance. His gaze froze as he inwardly cheered.

Yan Bei repeatedly nodded his head, but her father was frowning as she thought hard about it.

A Liu's expression changed, his right fist had a layer of scarlet flame, without any unnecessary posture, it directly smashed over.

My shoulder bent, my left hand moved forward, and used the "acanthopanax" to counter it.

His left hand came out, forming a claw, and clawed at my ribs.

Returning wind swept the hall, and his right palm dropped down, blocking in front of his ribs. His fingertips formed phloem, which cut into his wrist.

Crap! He actually took the chance to use the Vermillion Bird's Divine Inflammation's power.

My mind was thrown into disarray and my moves scattered. A Liu had found a weak point.

He withdrew both of his palms, gripped his right wrist with his left hand, and formed a flame wind with his right fist. Suddenly, he let out a sharp whistle, and a "Leather Roar" came along with the flame wind.

I wanted to take out my sword, but there wasn't enough time.

Thus, he could only use the same trick, which was also the "Leather Roar".

In the end, my inner strength is higher than his.

The flaming wind collided with me. He retreated ten steps, while I only retreated three steps.

A superior was obvious.

Returning to his senses, I said, "It's my honor."

With a cold snort, he flung his sleeves and said, "You win."

With that, he returned to Yan Bei's side.

Yan Bei looked at me, and her eyes lit up.

I knew the meaning behind the old man's words, so I said, "This little one has only learned a little bit of the truth, I am still far from being able to understand the two words."

The old tutor snorted coldly and was at a loss for words. He could only say, "Next."

The servant standing on Yan Bei's left walked over quickly.

I frowned, but I couldn't disrespect him. "Please advise me."

He cleared his throat, raised his fingers, and said in a high-pitched voice, "I would not dare to advise you." Although I like to mix some rouge and water powder, but these are not necessary things. After thinking about it again and again, I'll still test your martial arts. "

I relaxed and thought: "If I really take the test on how to make rouge powder, I'm afraid I won't be as good as him. However, if it is only comparing martial arts, I am not afraid. "

I said, "Please."

The moment he finished speaking, his finger lightly flicked. A phloem shot over with a strange fragrance.

I held my breath, but I couldn't form the phloem. Since he did not want to fight with the phloem, he could only use the Hengping's footwork to dodge.

However, the phloem seemed to have grown a pair of eyes. No matter how I tried to sidestep it, it would always stay behind me.

As I was paying attention to the phloem behind me, I heard a few more strange noises.

The wind whistled, and a few phloem shot out. Still came with incense.

My footwork became more and more hasty.

Yan Bei's face was grave, but his father had relaxed quite a bit.

phloem was extremely fast. I stroked the ring, and with my right hand clenched, I summoned the Black Lake Sword.

The blade of the sword trembled and released many beams of black light, slashing the phloem apart.

I slowed my steps and turned around to use the "Light Ink to Dip Flower for Light Wind".

Before Ah Wu could condense another phloem, the Ink Sword had already reached his neck.

Cold sweat trickled down his face. He sighed and took Mo Hong away. "I lost."

I said, "Thanks."

Ah Wu drooped his head and returned to Yan Bei's side.

Yan Bei heaved a sigh of relief.

Old Man Yan's expression became more and more unsightly.

When A Si stood out, he lightly patted his knee and looked at me meaningfully.

I didn't understand what he meant, so I put on a good show of politeness.

I could feel that A Si's aura was obviously stronger than Ah Wu and A Liu.

He moved his body and the gap appeared.

They could only release heat wave s and cooperate with Mo Hong to passively defend.

A Si consecutively clapped several times as I complained in my heart.

Both of his arms were numb, the heat wave s around his body had become even dimmer.

After a few more moves, I could barely hold on.

If he were to maintain this offensive, I would soon be defeated.

Yan Bei clenched her fists tightly, her eyes full of worry.

Old Man Yan stroked his beard, feeling very satisfied.

Probably, A Si had already figured out my true strength. With a scream, layers of scarlet flames appeared on the barrier, and it was actually "Desecration".

I unsheathed the Mo Su sword, unwilling to surrender, and flicked my fingers on the hilt.

The black light condensed into a python shape, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced towards A Si.

Before the Ink Python could reach him, blood suddenly spurted out from his knee.

I finally understood the look in Yan Bei's eyes.

I don't want to kill you if it's just a competition. Using all his strength, he finally managed to cause Mo Python to deviate slightly, knocking him into a nearby chair.

The chair shattered into pieces.

I heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you."

Although A Si lost in a baffling manner, he did not linger on it and endured the pain, "Good move." He limped back to Yan Bei's side.

A Liu, Ah Wu, A Si had all lost.

What was left was the gentle and refined servant standing beside Old Man Yan.

After he received a signal from old man Yan, he walked out and said, "I am Ah San."

I said, "Please advise me."

However, he shook his head and took out a folding fan from his sleeve. He opened the folding fan and gently waved it, saying, "I don't know martial arts, so I'll test your knowledge. "As a servant of the Yan Clan, one must possess some basic knowledge."

I can't refuse. He looked at A Liu and A Si, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Ah San seemed to see through my thoughts and said: "One cannot judge a book by its cover. Although the three of them are not as knowledgeable as me, they are definitely not an illiterate person. "

Without waiting for me to reply, he continued, "A Liu. "Looking back over the thousands of miles of barren land, I can only mourn for myself."

A Liu thought for a moment, then said: "Shang Yi is the first to enjoy life in the imperial court, the Xiao Emperor once opened the doors for the two palaces."

Ah San said, "That's right, you remember Mr. Yang Ming's poem very well. "Ah Wu, four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty."

"How many buildings in the misty rain. This is Fan Chuanshi's "Jiangnan Spring, Thousand Li Ying Cry Green Reflecting Red".

Ah San glanced at me in disdain and said, "A Si, listen carefully." After a pause, he said, "It's not because you're too lazy to care about your appearance, but because the cold spots here are too good."

A Si said: "Don't have roots, she's not a rich flower in the mortal world. Nalan Huo De, "Plucking mulberry seeds into the snow".

After the three of them had finished their dialogue, Ah San turned around and looked at me. "I won't make things difficult for you either. You just need to follow their example by saying the poem and the name of the work, and you'll pass. What do you say?"

I put away my sword and said, "Please."

Ah San smiled and lightly waved his folding fan. The disdain in his eyes gradually increased.

He said, "If you are honest and brave, and you use force, then you will eventually become strong and unstoppable."

I curled my lips and said, "Since my body is dead and my soul is in my spirit, then my child's soul is in my spirit." "Qu Yuan, 'Nine Song'."

Ah San trembled in disbelief.

I said, "Did I pass?"

Ah San kept his folding fan. Although his face was expressionless, there was nothing he could do.

After all, he had already spoken so brazenly, he definitely could not go back on his words.

He said, "You're too much." He turned around and returned to Old Man Yan's side, his face still filled with dissatisfaction.

At this point, I successfully passed the quad test.

Old Man Yan sighed and coughed a few times. However, he could only helplessly say: "Xiao Ma, from now on, you are Bei'er's personal servant, taking over Little Ten's position. Cough, cough, cough. Bei'er, go and make the arrangements. I'm going to sleep. "

Yan Bei stood up with joy in her heart. With a much higher tone, he replied, "Yes!"
