Chapter 136: The moon is dark and the wind is high
Then five people walked in, one man and four women. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The man was wearing a dark purple official robe, a black gauze eunuch hat, and his silver hair was meticulous, his face was like powder, and he had no beard under his cheeks. Xu Yang had seen this person in the main hall of Dongjun City before, and he was one of the close courtiers around the Dongjun Lord.
He was followed by four palace maids, all of whom were as beautiful as flowers, white as fat, and as tall as willows. The four of them are of similar height and size, and their clothing styles are uniform, with goose-yellow tulle shawls, white brocade bandeau coats, jade-colored patterned thin-soled shoes, long hair piled up with clouds, crisp breasts half-exposed, fragrant shoulders swaying, and fragrant steps. Each of the four of them held a tray with carved red lacquer, on which a white jade disc was used to hold various fresh spirit fruits, which were either red or yellow, bright or green.
"The officials paid their respects to Leader Xu. Fang Shijing clenched his fists, and then waved his hand at the four palace maids behind him, and the four palace maids neatly placed the spirit fruits on the tray on the table in Xu Yang's house, and then stood back in a row to wait.
Lord Fang was polite. Xu Yang returned the salute slightly.
"Leader Xu came from afar, and the lord of Dongjun specially prepared some gifts to send the old minister to send them to Leader Xu. ”
Fang Shijing said, took out a storage bag with golden thread and cloud pattern from his arms, sealed the mouth of the storage bag with a piece of golden rune paper, and handed it to Xu Yang respectfully with both hands.
Xu Yang took the storage bag and pulled the golden rune paper sealed on it.
With a "stab" sound, the golden rune paper turned into a bean yellow firework and burned out instantly, and the mouth of the storage bag was loosened.
The divine sense poked into the storage bag, and there were a thousand high-grade spirit stones in it.
Xu Yang was not a greedy person for money, and he also earned some spirit stones by refining his own pills on weekdays, but it was the first time he saw such a number of spirit stones, and he was inevitably moved.
I didn't expect that the first time I came out as the second leader of Qinghua Mountain City, someone would give such a big gift. It's no wonder that everyone in both the mortal realm and the cultivation realm is vying to be an official and take power, and this wealth comes too easily. If you reject the spirit stone of the East County Lord, I am afraid that the atmosphere between the two sides will become tense next. It is better to accept the spirit stone, give face to the county lord of Zudong, and wait and see what happens, so that it may be easier to see the hole cards of the county lord of Dongdong.
Xu Yang stared at the glittering spirit stones in the storage bag, his eyes did not blink, and after a while, he said with a smile on his face: "Lord Dongjun is really the wind of a king, it is not easy to sympathize with us reckless people, I will definitely take these spirit stones back and distribute them to the brothers in Qinghua Mountain City, I will thank Lord Dongjun for the brothers first." ”
When Fang Shijing heard this, he hurriedly smiled and admitted: "The second leader is really high-spirited and awe-inspiring. But he secretly ridiculed in his heart, this is the second leader called Xu Yang is not very old, but he has learned a fake and honest, real and corrupt career, and this spirit stone has not all fallen into his own pocket.
Xu Yang glanced at Fang Shijing and found that Fang Shijing's pair of slender eyes were also staring at the storage bag in his hand. Deliberately "hehe" smiled, grabbed thirty high-grade spirit stones from the storage bag and handed them to Fang Shijing.
"It's a little meaning, please smile at Lord Fang, and in the future, I will rely on my lord to say a few more kind words in front of the East County Lord. ”
"Well said, well said. Fang Shijing said as he took the spirit stone into his arms with both hands, and his two thin eyes were bent into a crescent shape. muttered in my heart, even if you kid is still sensible.
Fang Shijing turned his head and said, "These four maidservants were carefully selected by the order of the county lord, so stay here to serve the second leader." ”
After Xu Yang heard this, his consciousness moved, these four maidservants not only looked like flowers and moons, but each of them turned out to be cultivators in the virtual realm. I secretly thought in my heart that it was fake for these four people to serve me, and it was true to spy on me. In order not to arouse the vigilance of the East County Lord, the only way to let these four maids stay.
"The lord of the East County is really thoughtful, and it is better to obey his fate than to be respectful. ”
Fang Shijing turned his head to the four maidservants and said, "The four of you stay here to serve the second leader of Xu Er. ”
"Yes!" replied the four maidservants in unison.
"Second Leader Xu, I won't disturb your rest. ”
With that, Fang Shijing turned around and left, pushed the door closed, and the footsteps walked farther and farther.
Xu Yang turned his head to look at the four maids and asked, "What are your names?"
"Sunset".
"Autumn maple".
"Chuntang".
"Shuyun".
The four maidservants replied obediently.
"Good name, don't stand there, second master, I have a tired journey, my back is sore, come and beat my back and pinch my legs. Xu Yang said with a smile.
The four maidservants glanced at each other, smiling coquettishly, and rushed to come over to serve Xu Yang.
Four pairs of soft jade hands knocked on Xu Yang's shoulders and limbs, or pressed, twisted, or pushed. On weekdays, the feeling of tranquility and refreshment is different from that of luck and circulation, and a sense of comfort that makes people drowsy spreads throughout the body.
The daily enjoyment of the powerful and powerful people in this mortal world is that the immortals also have to envy three points, no wonder the lord of the East County is not focused on seeking immortality and cultivation, but is willing to be the king of the East County who is entangled in everything. Turning his mind, Xu Yang secretly blamed himself in his heart, how could he be confused by this mundane gentleness. I don't know where the black cat ran away, I was really tired from working with Jiang Sanfeng today, so I still took the opportunity to take a good rest.
After a while, Xu Yang leaned on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, occasionally heard snoring, and gradually fell asleep.
Seeing that Xu Yang was gradually falling asleep, the four maidservants did not dare to disturb him. Carefully took off Xu Yang's shoes and gently placed Xu Yang's legs on the bed. The four of them stood up and searched carefully in Xu Yang's house, and found nothing suspicious, so they covered the door, and every two people took turns and stood at the door of Xu Yang to wait.
After the four maids left the room, Xu Yang lay quietly on the bed, opened his eyes, his consciousness moved, and the golden sable "Peach" jumped out of the spirit pet bag.
Xu Yang put one finger to his lips and made a silent motion. "Pan Tao" understood, quietly jumped off the bed, and went around.
With the "Peach" standing guard, Xu Yang turned to one side, closed his eyes and went to recuperate, and after a while, he really fell asleep.
The sun sets over the western mountains, and the moon rises on the top. The moonlight shone like a veil on the towers, streets, and squares of the eastern county. Several gates were closed tightly, and several neatly dressed patrol guards crisscrossed through the streets of the city, and occasionally a few autumn insects sang in the evening by the roadside.
A dark cloud drifted by, covering the face of Yinyue in the sky, and the whole world suddenly darkened, and the light in Xu Yang's room also dimmed.
A moment later, the clouds swept by, and Silver Moon showed her face again. The moonlight penetrated into Xu Yang's room through the light window screen, and in the hazy white, a black cat with sharp ears and green eyes squatted on the round table opposite Xu Yang's bed, which was the black cat "Night Slaughter".
Xu Yang propped his hands on, twisted his body, and sat up from the bed.
Seeing that the black cat Night Tu was safe and sound, he nodded and smiled, and the two used secret methods to transmit sound and talk.
"Great Chief, you're back. Xu Yang said.
"Looks like you're getting a good night's rest. The black cat "Night Slaughter" said.
"What are we going to do next? Wait until tomorrow to negotiate with the East County Lord?"
"Tomorrow's business doesn't matter, but there is something for you to do with me tonight. ”
"What?"
"Kill!" Black Cat Night Tu said coldly.
Xu Yang turned his head to look at the deep night outside the window, and then looked at the black cat in front of him. I haven't known Ye Tu for a long time, and I always feel that Ye Tu has an indescribable and inexplicable sense of mystery. Ye Tu said that he wanted to kill someone, which made Xu Yang not surprised at all.
Seeing that Xu Yang didn't answer, the black cat Ye Tu smiled "hehe" and said jokingly: "The moon outside is dark and the wind is high, and if you don't kill someone, you simply live up to this intoxicating night." ”
"This reason for killing is too far-fetched. Xu Yang muttered secretly in his heart, his expression was helpless, he shook his head with a dry smile, but he vaguely felt in his heart that the person he was going to kill this time must be very simple.
"Who are you going to kill?" Xu Yang asked.
"East County Lord!" replied the black cat Night Tu lightly.
Hearing the answer of "East County Lord", Xu Yang was still taken aback. The idea of killing the lord of the East County in the city of Dongjun is as incredible as going to the yamen to steal the official seal.
Xu Yang thought in his mind, thinking that there had been a duel between Ye Tu and the East County Lord before, so there must be some grudge between the two. Think about it carefully, what about the loose cultivator in this little sage world who has no grudge with Confucianism?
"The purpose of your coming to the East County City this time is to kill the East County Lord, right?" asked Xu Yang.
"The moon makes people lonely, and the beauty makes people pitiful, just now I had this idea. ”
Xu Yang originally wanted to ask if he was sure of what the detailed plan would be next, but after hearing the clueless answer of the black cat night slaughter, he suddenly felt that killing people could also be said to be a very poetic thing, because Xu Yang really couldn't think of a better reason to kill the East County Lord.
The strength of Night Slaughter, when several people hunted a thousand snakes together, Xu Yang had seen it, and it should be above himself. The important thing is that Ye Tu had been defeated at the hands of Wang Tianming, the lord of the Eastern County before, and it was a one-on-one duel. Today, Ye Tu and himself, a total of two people, are going to assassinate the East County Lord in this East County City. Not to mention whether the two of them are sure of winning or not, just the fact that there are so many masters and guards in this Dongjun city sounds like an impossible task.
Xu Yang looked up at the hazy moon shadow outside the window screen, and frowned speechlessly.
"Follow me. Black Cat Night Tu said.
Xu Yang stood up and followed him.
The black cat Night Slaughter walked straight towards the door.
A faint blue mist of light, barely visible to the naked eye, dispersed from the surface of the Black Cat's Night Slaughter. The light and mist rolled up on the door, and the door was silently opened.
A cat and a man went out of the room.
The candles in the corridor emitted a faint light, and on both sides of the door, Chuntang and Qiuyue, two maidservants, were leaning on the wall, their eyes slightly closed, and the round and full curves of their chests rose and fell rhythmically.
"I know you're not an innocent person, don't worry, I'm just letting them sleep for a while. That Dongjun Lord is also innocent, and when we kill him, you will know the reason. Black Cat Night Tu said, as if he knew what Xu Yang was thinking.
Hearing what the East County Lord said, Xu Yang's heart suddenly felt a little happier, because Xu Yang was indeed not a person who killed innocents indiscriminately. All that's left in my mind is the tension of killing an opponent who is much stronger than myself.
One person and one cat came out of the single-family house where Xu Yang rested. Xu Yang followed behind the Black Cat Night Slaughter and walked around the huge Dongjun City, skillfully bypassing one patrol after another of soldiers.
