Chapter 25: The Second Goal

The weather is getting cold, the grass is withered and the trees are left, and the cold weather is paired with a touch of snow, and it is winter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

In winter, almost all the flowers and plants will wither, leaving only the cold plums and flocks of crows that can only bloom after several struggles.

The crows flew through the air, their cries resounding through the sky. I don't know when the crow crow was considered an unlucky thing. Hearing this voice, Chu Xiao couldn't help frowning, and his face was much more ugly than when he heard the news just now.

"In other words, Duan He was assassinated and died like this?" Chu Xiao said with a frown.

"Well, but there are probably several rumors in the market now, one is that Duan He was assassinated while drunk, one is that the swordsman killed Duan He directly, and the other is..."

"What is the other one?"

"They said that Duan He retired and became the general of the Shenwu Kingdom."

Chu Xiao's expression changed, and he chuckled: "This is simply a joke. They also underestimate my Shenwu Kingdom too much. Even if I look for Duan He, it's just for an opponent, how can Duan He have the ability to lead troops to fight for me, to say that he is just a sword. ”

The expression of the person standing next to Chu Xiao and saying these words also changed slightly, and his face gradually became a little unbearable.

This person is called Zhuyunlong, and Zhuyunlong's nickname has been called for a long time, and even he himself has faded his real name. When it comes to the dragon in this river and lake, almost everyone who used a sword in the past knew that this was an expert in swordsmanship, and he rarely fought but won every battle. In recent years, he has faded into the world, and most of those who know him have retired or died elsewhere. Ruyun Long gradually became a story that some masters would tell to juniors, but no one guessed that he himself was actually under Chu Xiao's hands.

Of course, now he is not sure to win every battle. A long time ago, he had just been defeated by Duan Heβ€”beside Ying Mountain.

Chu Xiao's words were not for Ruyun Long, seeing the change in his face, Chu Xiao also quickly eased the atmosphere and said, "Brother, don't think about it, I just sighed." It's really embarrassing that this period of Hewei took refuge in us, but ended up like this. ”

"Indeed, who would have thought that Duan He would die like this. But Chu Ye, it's not him that we have to manage, if the second person we want to see today still doesn't agree, what should we do? Ruyun Long diverted the topic and stopped mentioning Duan He.

"Simple, negotiable. If you don't agree, go to the third one. I'm staying in this Tang realm for these people, if I can't get my hands on it, I don't have the face to go back. Chu said with a smile.

After saying this, before Ruyunlong could answer, a soldier outside the house suddenly pushed the door and entered.

"Master Chu, people have already come." The person who came said.

Chu Xiao was about to leave after hearing this, and Zhuyunlong no longer spoke, but walked out of the room with Chu Xiao with an extremely tacit understanding, and a group of soldiers stood outside the room and walked out with Chu Xiao.

This time, Chu Xiao was going to meet the second person on his list in a restaurant, and Ruyunlong and everyone still followed to protect Chu Xiao's safety at any time.

What they want to see is a master, not a chivalrous man. Chivalrous people can't do such murderous deeds, but these so-called masters do. Ruyun Long hid a sword in his sleeve, and he didn't leave Chu Xiao.

The group walked downstairs, and there was a man sitting in the seat that had been reserved for a long time, dressed in a gray robe, as if the cold winter had nothing to do with him.

"When I heard that someone wanted to see me, I came. I came here with good intentions, but I don't know why I have such a big posture, and I don't want to talk about it slowly, but I'm afraid that I won't succeed? ”

Before Chu Xiao went downstairs, he heard such a recitation, his voice was sonorous and powerful, and Chu Xiao secretly sighed.

"Don't think too much about it, my Chu Ye has been waiting for you here for a long time. It's just that it's freezing on this day, and he's not a martial arts practitioner, so he's a little uncomfortable on this floor. Fang had just gone upstairs for a short while, and when he heard that the hero had arrived, he hurried down. ”

The one who spoke was a small follower who had been following Chu Xiao's side, and these words were secretly taught to him by Chu Xiao just now, and there was a little humility in his tone, but he couldn't lose Chu Xiao's position.

"I don't have that many picks, so let's just say what you mean." The man said again.

Chu Xiao looked at him and smiled, waved his hand forward, and said, "Since Zhang Daxia has the intention of having a deep chat with me, why don't we go upstairs and talk in detail?" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The man nodded in reply.

Chu Xiao made a gesture of please, and the person known as Zhang Daxia went upstairs, and the people who had just come down from the upstairs also followed. But after arriving upstairs, Chu Xiao stopped Ru Yunlong and the others outside the house, and he and Zhang Daxia walked into the house.

"This..."

"No problem."

Ruyunlong knew Chu Xiao's temper and knew that it would be difficult to convince him, so he could only wait outside honestly. The sword in his sleeve was taken out by him and clenched tightly in his hand.

The two of them went in to answer, and only laughter could be heard from inside from time to time. After a while, the two of them laughed and walked out of the room.

Seeing this, Irumo Long immediately put away his sword and stood aside respectfully.

"Zhang Daxia is really a master, and we will meet there next spring." Chu said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I, Zhang Zeqing, big and small, can be regarded as famous, since I promised, I will naturally not forget, see you at that time."

The two made a salute, greeted each other and walked downstairs. Iruyun Dragon followed behind, but he didn't follow so closely anymore.

Finally, Zhang Zeqing left, and Chu Xiao also put away the smile on his face and became serious.

The group returned to the second floor again, Chu Xiao's face was still solemn, but he looked a lot better.

"He agreed?" The only one who followed Chu Xiao into the house was Zhuyun Long, and he was no longer polite, and sat directly opposite Chu Xiao.

"This Zhang Zeqing, what rumors have been floating on the rivers and lakes in the past?" Chu Xiao did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Izumo Long closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then shook his head.

"This person has no reputation, but he was pushed by that person to be a master. It seems that he has some other stories to tell, and although he agreed, he still can't put his heart into it. Chu Xiao sighed.

"So agreed? What did you tell him? ”

"I didn't say anything, I didn't even identify myself, and he happily agreed. Now all he knows is that we are a group of people, trying to make some big moves in this Tang realm. Chu smiled.

"It seems that this person is very dissatisfied with this Tang Dynasty, otherwise how could he agree so happily?"

"Just look at it."

Chu Xiao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, which was regarded as an end to this conversation.

"After all, we don't have a choice."
