A moment later Lu Guanying remembered their other guests; he helped Wanyan Kang to stand up but he could not move because his acupoints were still sealed; only his two eyes were rolling.
”I have accepted your Master's request, you may go,” Lu Chengfeng said. He did not want to unseal the acupoints, since it was somebody else outside his school who did that. If he did, he would act in disrespect toward other people. Therefore, he cast his glance toward his guests. But before he even said anything Zhu Cong had come toward Wanyan Kang and hit several times on his waist, and tapped some more on his back; unsealed the acupoints.
Lu Chengfeng was impressed. ”This Wanyan Kang's martial art is not weak, yet this man was able to seal his acupoints without any resistance. His martial art must be good,” he thought. What he did not know was that Zhu Cong took advantage of the commotion because of the collapsed roof that Wanyan Kang did not even realize what was happening.
Wanyan Kang was ashamed; he turned his back and walked away without saying anything. Zhu Cong saw the Jin officer was still lying around; he unsealed his acupoints and called out, ”Who is this officer? Take him away.”
Thai officer had thought that he was going to die; but unexpectedly he was released. He was delighted and busily kowtowed, ”Valiant Hero … thank you so much for saving my lowly life. Duan Tiande will not forget it as long as I live. Next time when you visit the capital, please make sure you stop by my residence, I will be at your service with all my heart …”
Guo Jing heard the three characters 'Duan Tiande'; his ears were buzzing. With a trembling voice he asked, ”You … your name is Duan Tiande?”
”That's right,” answered Duan Tiande. ”Duan Tiande at your service, Young Hero.”
”Eighteen years ago, were you serving as a military officer in Lin An?” Guo Jing asked.
”How did the Young Hero know?” Duan Tiande asked; and then he remembered Lu Chengfeng mentioned that Lu Guanying was a disciple of Reverend Kumu; he turned his head to Lu Guanying and said, ”I am Reverend Kumu's nephew, only I did not attend the monastery. I say we belong to the same family. Ha … ha …!” He laughed merrily.
Guo Jing looked at him strangely but did not say anything. Meanwhile Duan Tiande was still smiling happily. After a while Guo Jing regained his composure and turned his head to Lu Chengfeng. ”Village Master Lu, may I please borrow your courtyard for a moment?” he asked.
”Sure, use it as you wish,” Lu Chengfeng answered.
Guo Jing took Duan Tiande's arm and led him to the courtyard in big strides. The Six Freaks of Jiangnan were having mixed feeling; they thought the heaven indeed have eyes. If he did not say his own name, they would not have known he was the person they have been looking for these past seven years and tens of thousands miles.
