Chapter 13: Playing the Violin
"Would you like to be my companion?"
Zhan Bai seemed to have made a decision, and turned his head to look at the female village owner. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The female owner of the village was obviously reluctant, and did not answer with a cold face.
"Miss, did the old slave beg you here?" Wen Leopard knelt and turned to the female village owner and pleaded.
"Uncle Wen, what are you doing here, do you want to discount my birthday?" The female owner of the village was shocked, it can be said that she is Uncle Wen who has seen her since she was a child, and this relationship is not much better than that of her father and daughter, how can she bear Wen Leopard's kneeling.
"If the young lady doesn't agree, the old slave will kneel and die here." Wen Leopard said with a resolute face.
"You ......" The female owner of the village looked bitter, although she also knew that Wen Leopard was so forced to do it for herself, but ......
"That's it, Uncle Wen, you get up. I promise yes. As she spoke, the cold face of the female owner was already covered with tears, and she didn't know if it was because of her grievances or what she was remembering.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Bai was speechless for a while, how to make himself look like a landlord who robbed the people's daughters.
"Well, from now on, you will be my companion. As a companion, there are not many rules, the only thing is that you must be loyal. The prestige of Hongwen Academy cannot be desecrated, once you find out that the companion has betrayed, the consequences do not need to be said, you should also know in your hearts. Zhan Bai looked at the reluctant appearance of the female owner and decided to beat her.
"Mr. Zhan, we won't." Wen Leopard hurriedly replied.
"Don't call me sir, call me son in the future. Brother Wen, what are your plans for the future? Zhan Bai looked at Wen Leopard playfully.
Wen Leopard was stunned, yes, I was just thinking about Miss before, but what about myself?
Do you also want to be a companion to Zhanbai?
Thinking of this possibility, even Wen Leopard unconsciously resisted in his heart. No matter how you say it, he is a metaphysical cultivator who is too easy to read, but he wants to become someone else's companion, and this companion reads and speaks well, but in fact he is a slave. The huge contrast in identity is not so easy to figure out.
Wen Leopard couldn't help but look at the female village owner, obviously he now also personally understands that the young lady's helplessness and bitterness, if it weren't for his own hard work, she would not have agreed even if she died.
"I ...... I, Mr. Zhan, it stands to reason that Miss is already your companion, so I should not be an exception. It's just that...... I beg Mr. Zhan to let the old slave continue to take care of the young lady, of course, in the future, if Mr. Zhan has needs, the old slave will definitely do his best, and he will not hesitate to go to the soup. After pondering for a while, Wen Leopard decisively made a surprising decision, but Zhan Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard it.
Nima, is it easy for Lao Tzu to deceive a companion, now it's okay, other people's companions are all servants, and their own companions are simply a big lady, and there is a special person to serve.
But looking at Wen Leopard's five big and three rough appearances, he made a pitiful gesture of pleading, which made him unbearable.
That's it, anyway, I'm not really a student of Hongwen Academy, how can I take care of those rules, as long as I can get those four Xuanjing mines, I will pinch my nose and admit it.
"Whatever you want." Zhan Bai nodded, "You guys go and deal with the aftermath here first, and afterwards, I'll wait for you in the old place." ā
After speaking, Zhan Bai wanted to turn around and leave, the so-called old place was naturally the hall where he had eaten before.
Just two steps away, Zhan Bai stopped again, turned his head to look at the female village owner.
"Well, what's your name? I seem to have heard people call you Mingyue before? ā
But no, they have become their own companions, but they don't even know their names.
"You can call me that, too." The female owner of the village said lukewarmly, and it was obvious that she could feel the perfunctory.
"Miss." Unexpectedly, Wen Leopard on the side reprimanded, hurriedly licked his smiling face, and said to Zhan Bai, "Zhan Gongzi, don't be surprised." Mingyue is just a code name, and Miss's real name is Liu Xiaoqin. ā
"Liu Xiaoqin?" If there is water in the mouth, Zhanbai will definitely squirt out, this name is compared to me, no matter how you look at it, it feels a little disobedient, and it's too ordinary.
As a cold beauty, even if the name is not a dragger, at least it has to be a bit literary and artistic. Liu Xiaoqin? Oh, it's not as good as the bright moon.
In order not to let himself laugh, Zhan Bai hurriedly turned around and left without looking back.
ā¦ā¦
In the hall, Zhan Bai unceremoniously sat on the Taishi chair in the main seat, supporting his chin, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Although Liu Xiaoqin has become his companion, nominally, the four Xuanjing mines are also his own. But obviously, the current situation is not optimistic, without Mingyue Village, I don't know how many pairs of eyes I am staring at at this time. After a long time, someone must be tempted to knock on the door.
If he is really a student of Hongwen Academy, it would be fine, but no, once his identity is revealed, a big war is absolutely inevitable. In this regard, Zhanbai is not worried, what he is worried about is that once his identity is exposed, Liu Xiaoqin and Wenbao will never trust him anymore, and even resentful because they have been deceived.
How can this be prevented?
Zhan Bai's mind turned, and he soon had a plan.
The solution to this matter is actually very simple, it is nothing more than the word "force".
If Mingyue Village is still strong and strong, it will naturally be safe. But in fact, Mingyue Village has already existed in name only, and besides, if Mingyue Village still exists, it will not let itself be cheapened.
As a bare-pole commander, the most important thing now is nothing more than recruitment.
Zhan Bai didn't know how these stockades recruited minions on weekdays, but he knew that if it was decent, before he could find someone, the guy who coveted this place would already come to the door.
"Hehe, since the main gate can't get through, then you can only get out of the way." A sly smile bloomed on Zhanbai's face.
"One-eyed snake, Black Flag Village, it's you."
ā¦ā¦
When it was dark, Liu Xiaoqin and Wen Bao finally came back after dealing with the aftermath.
It can be seen that Liu Xiaoqin has cried, and her eyes are still red.
"Two things." Zhan Bai didn't say anything polite, "First, I need a lot of spars. Second, tell me where the one-eyed snake is hiding, and I'll help you find the field. ā
For Zhanbai's direct way of speaking, Liu Xiaoqin and the others were stunned.
"Don't you understand?" Zhan Bai smiled slightly, but in his eyes, it was a chill down his spine for no reason.
"That. Zhan Gongzi, we still have stock in Mingyue Village, but it's just a matter of trouble with the one-eyed snake, whether it's too urgent, the old slave thinks it's better to think about it in the long run. Wen Leopard said worriedly.
Anyway, the one-eyed snake has thousands of people, how can it be so easy to deal with. Although ordinary people don't dare to provoke Hongwenyuan, it doesn't mean that they will be slaughtered, if the people of Hongwenyuan take the initiative to provoke, then it's another matter.
"Think long-term? No, I don't have that much time. Zhan Bai shook his head, "Do as I say." ā
"Uncle Wen, you saw it. This is his real face, he was polite before, but now? arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant, just take us as people at the moment. Liu Xiaoqin, whose face was very ugly from the beginning, finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily.
"Inferior? Isn't it? Hmph, I'm afraid it's not me, but you, who haven't adapted to your new identity yet. You're not the owner of the village now, but my companion. Do you know what a companion reads, it's a scholar. Zhan Bai's eyes were slightly weak, staring at Liu Xiaoqin.
"You ......" Liu Xiaoqin was angry, and her whole body trembled and pointed at Zhanbai, since she was a child, how could she have been so insulted, "The old lady will not serve, this will always work." ā
"Hmph, I'm afraid I can't help you now." Zhan Bai now has the heart to stand up, and when he drinks coldly, the whole person has already stood up from the Taishi chair, if he doesn't polish this woman's temperament, I don't know what he will do in the future.
"Hmph, I'm not going to do it, what can you do?" Liu Xiaoqin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she is not afraid to go up.
"The rules of Hongwenguan, but if you read it together, once you betray, there is only one end, and that is death." Zhan Bai's eyes were cold, and he raised his sword, and the gray smoke rose, condensed into a sword, and held it in his right hand.
"Hmph, the old lady just doesn't believe it, you really have the cultivation of the Tai Origin Realm, just a trick, do you think I'm really afraid of you?" Liu Xiaoqin's fiery temper was also ignited, and he pulled out the lancet on his waist and pointed it at Zhanbai.
"Miss, Zhan Gongzi ......" Wen Leopard on the side was in a hurry, and was about to open his mouth to persuade.
"Shut up."
"Shut up."
Zhan Bai and Liu Xiaoqin scolded in unison.
"Remembering that you do not know the rules and that you have transgressed, you are spared the death penalty. But capital crimes can be avoided, living sins cannot be escaped, and today I will leave you with a profound lesson. Zhan Bai said coldly, holding the gray sword and stepping forward.
Airplanes!!!
The gray smoke long sword couldn't help but tremble, and the tip of the sword swallowed, like a snake letter, which was already covering Liu Xiaoqin.
"The old lady is not easy to mess with." Liu Xiaoqin was not stunned, the sword flashed, and she greeted her.
"Sword intent, ruthless."
Ruthlessness lies in thoughts, and a thought is killing.
Liu Xiaoqin only felt that the whole person was shrouded in darkness, depressed, discouraged, desperate, and all kinds of negative emotions, which made people go crazy and even had the idea of suicide.
This negative emotion came and went quickly, and it was almost washed away by the mysterious power in the body in the blink of an eye, but it was this short-term loss of mind, but it was doomed to the final ending.
The gray smoke long sword stayed on Liu Xiaoqin's throat, close to Chi Chi, and the delicate skin could even feel the sharp edge emanating from the tip of the sword. The fear of death gave her goosebumps all over her body.
On the other hand, the lancet in Liu Xiaoqin's hand is still half an arm's length away from Zhanbai's heart at this time.
Decide whether you win or lose.
"Are you convinced?" Zhan Bai said very softly and slowly, but it was full of freezing.
"I ...... I'm not convinced. You are cheating, and with your primordial cultivation, you may not be able to break through my Xuanli defense. Although Liu Xiaoqin was shocked, her pale face was still full of stubbornness.
Poof!!
Zhan Bai was too lazy to talk nonsense, and with a twist of his wrist, the long sword flew and slashed directly at Liu Xiaoqin's left shoulder.
Clothes are torn, blood is spilled.
"Now you're ready?" The sword returned to its original position, smiling at the white face.
"You...... You scoundrel, my mother fought with you. ā
