Chapter 8: A Sudden Marriage Contract
Looking at the street where there was no Gu Mo for a long time, Zilong said to himself: "I hope that in a month, I can see a mature Gu Mo." Full // this \ small // say \ net"
It was getting dark, and after Tiger ate all the food left by Gu Mo in the bedroom, he collapsed on the side of the bed, looking sullen, and told Zilong that he wanted to digest the taste left by Gu Mo. Zilong smiled faintly, didn't say anything, sat cross-legged on the bed alone, running the shadow exercises, recovering the Yuan Spirit in his body, and didn't say anything all night.
Early the next morning, Zilong slowly finished his work with a knock on the door, stood up and opened the door. Like porters, groups of waiters pushed in boxes containing delicious dishes and arranged them neatly in the house. Zilong didn't pay any attention to them, walked back to the bedroom, and closed the door. In less than half a day, they couldn't bring in a hundred servings of food at all, which must have been made by Hui Jia with dozens of chefs overnight.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Zilong's divine sense entered the spatial ring and glanced at the 'Seven Sages of the Stage', at this moment they were scattered in all corners of the alien dimension and trying to recover the energy in their bodies, without any movement. He also deliberately observed Yu Taimei, who, like everyone else, sat cross-legged in a protruding place with her eyes closed, her hands clasped together, practicing her own exercises.
The divine consciousness withdrew from the space ring, and Zilong nodded with satisfaction for the performance of several people, although one of them was a spy of a foreign race, but in his own world, there was no need to be afraid of him making any small moves...
It was also on this day that in the Baidu space, the hare king Luo Bo led many beasts on Bailing Mountain to attack the Eyeless Home together. After a moment of fighting, a little rabbit touched the walls of the temple as if no one was around, causing the Eyeless people to return in defeat. Subsequently, the name of the Tantai translator said an encouraging word to everyone, and the people of the Wuyan clan began to be full of fighting spirit again, and they dispersed and worked hard to cultivate, everyone hoped to reach the level of the three pupils as soon as possible...
At the same time, Xiangyun Continent, Gunsmoke City. A luxurious wind car drove in from the city gate and stopped on the side of the city gate, the young man who stood at the city gate every day, quickly stepped forward, stood outside the car with a respectful look and said: "The master of the house, he came yesterday, and let me tell you that he lives on the third floor of the Yuelai Hotel, and you can find him if you find the boss." ”
"Oh, how did he know I was coming, did you tell him?" a majestic voice came from inside the wind car.
"The villain didn't dare, I didn't say anything to him, I just asked him if he had seen Miss. The young man was a little frightened and hurriedly explained.
The voice asked again, "What did he say?"
He said that the young lady was safe, and left without saying anything. The young man replied truthfully.
The man in the wind car seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said to the young man, "Got it, you're doing a good job." Then, the wind energy truck slowly started and drove towards the Panda Hotel.
"Thank you for the compliment. The young man shouted loudly as he looked at the wind turbine, and then, with a long breath, as if he had been through a battle, his body was constantly oozing sweat. Raising his hand to wipe his forehead, the young man said to himself, "I hope he doesn't leave." ”
In the Yuelai Hotel, Zilong turned his head to look at the position of the sun outside the window, it was noon, so he got up and walked out of the bedroom, just as the waiter moved the last box of lunch boxes in, piled them on top of the lunch boxes that were already like a hill, and said to Zilong: "Your Excellency, the hundred servings of food you want have been prepared." Then he withdrew.
Zilong looked at so much food, smiled, waved his left hand, and left only one in the room, and all the rest was put into the space ring, and shouted casually: "Tiger, yesterday's promise has been fulfilled, you can eat it." ”
Tiger walked out of the bedroom leisurely, stretched, came to the delicious food, and said a little sullenly: "It's really boring to eat alone." It would be nice if Gu Mo and Mammoth were here, and I don't know if they have anything to eat now. Although it said this, its movements did not stop, and it opened the lunch box and began to eat.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, Zilong glanced at Tiger and said, "Go to the bedroom to eat, I don't tell you not to come out." ”
Tiger stood up reluctantly, the tiger tail instantly became long, and with a slight sweep, the force was just enough to push the lunch box into the bedroom, and then, under the urging of Zilong, he walked in slowly.
After watching Tiger unwillingly close the door, Zilong turned around and opened the door.
Outside the door, Hui Jia stood respectfully aside, and behind him, was a middle-aged man in an aqua blue robe, his clothes were still rusted with a big drop of water, this middle-aged man's appearance was ordinary, but, between his eyebrows, Zilong could feel the temperament of always being in a high position and driving above everyone, making him look not angry and arrogant.
"Your Excellency, this is the first royal physician of our Zhoule Empire, the head of the Ed family, and he wants to see you. Hui Jia bowed, gave way to the side, and said respectfully to Zilong.
"Oh, it's the head of the Ed family, please come in. You are here, Zilong has lost the distance, and I hope you Haihan. Zilong said with a smile on his face, looking at Ed.
For Zilong's politeness, Ed smiled slightly, walked in, and Hui Jia took the opportunity to retreat. Zilong didn't call him, closed the door, invited Ed to sit down, and poured him a cup of tea.
"Sure enough, the hero is a teenager. Mr. Zilong, I have heard of your deeds for a long time, let's not talk darkly, I want to know my daughter Ai Xue, where is she now?" Ed picked up the teacup and took a sip, tasted it, and said to Zilong straight to the point.
"Elder family master, don't worry, Ai Xue is very good and safe, I think, you know the Huo family of the Qiming Empire, Ai Xue is sitting in the Huo family compound at the moment. Zilong poured himself a cup of tea and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Oh, sure enough, with your relationship with Mr. Zilong, I believe that my daughter will not be in danger. With a strange smile on his face, Ed said to Zilong.
Zilong was stunned, listening to Ed's words, he should have guessed that Ai Xue was in the Fire Family, but why did he come to find him again? Zilong asked the doubts in his heart directly, "Since the head of the Ed family has learned about Ai Xue, I don't know what you are looking for me?"
"My daughter has already left with you, are you so irresponsible to put her alone in the fire house?" Ed looked at Zilong's face and said unhurriedly.
"Elder Family Master, what do you mean by this?" Zilong frowned slightly, and said with a slight puzzlement.
"My daughter I know best, and she usually looks cold to anyone, even the nobles of the kings and grandsons. However, for your sake, she left the Hanwu Academy for several months without contacting anyone, and you don't tell me that there is nothing between you. Ed said with a smile on his face.
"This..."What Ed said is indeed the truth, and Zilong is indeed moved by Ai Xue, but now that Ed has broken it, Zilong is a little speechless for a while, and he doesn't know how to answer.
"Young man, how do you talk and spit out, I won't express any opinion on my daughter's matter, with all due respect, although you look ordinary, but the thing you did in the Qiming Empire still caused a sensation on the entire continent, and I am more relieved to hand over my daughter to you. Ed picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying meaningfully to Zilong.
"It's... Master Eddard, I think you didn't just come here overnight to talk to me. Zilong looked at Ed with a smile on his face and said slowly.
Ed nodded approvingly, met Zilong's gaze, and said unabashedly: "Yes, I have other things to talk about with you this time, but my daughter's matter is the most important, you have to hurry up and hold the wedding, but many people are pursuing Xue'er, you have to be careful." ”
Zilong was embarrassed by Ed's words, and couldn't help but change the topic and said, "Well, Ed family master, thank you very much for affirming me, but you better tell me what you want to talk about first, right?"
"Alas, it's all family, what's polite. Ed waved his hand, showing great generosity, and then continued: "I came this time to ask you for a favor." ”
"The head of the Ed family said it was okay. ”
Ed bowed slightly, restrained the smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Although our Ai family is majestic in the eyes of outsiders, but who can understand the truth that a companion is like a tiger, a few days ago, the emperor has sent someone to send a dowry to ask Xue'er to marry the third prince of his country, but the third prince does not learn a lot, is greedy for peace and ease, and bullies others, how can I give Xue'er to him like this." ”
Glancing up at Zilong, and seeing the latter's frowns, he continued: "However, the emperor talked to me privately, saying that someone falsely accused the Ai family of treason, if Ai Xue marries into the royal family, then others can't say anything, but if you don't marry, I'm afraid it will be difficult to calm everyone's mouth, Keyne, this is obviously a naked threat." ”
"Master Eddard, what do you want me to do. Zilong frowned, and said after thinking for a while.
"I have just said that I will marry Xue'er as soon as possible, with your power in the Qiming Empire and the Hanhua Empire, the Zhoule Empire will not embarrass you, and my Ai family will also be exempted from the emperor's troubles because of you. Ed looked at Zilong and said with expectation in his eyes.
"This... However, I don't know if Ai Xue will agree. "Marriage, this word is very unfamiliar to Zilong, he never thought that he would hold a wedding in a hurry under such circumstances, and Zilong didn't know anything about the procedures for holding a wedding.
"You can rest assured, Xue'er will not object, not to mention that this is related to the survival of my Ai family, the most important thing is that Xue'er has affection for you, for this proposal, she will only be happy, and leave the rest to me, when the time comes, I just hope that you invite all the people related to you to come to participate." Seeing that the matter had been decided, Ed couldn't help but smile a little happily and said.
Looking at Ed's happy appearance, Zilong suddenly remembered that Ai Xue was in front of him, the smile that was like a country and a city, except for Ai Xue, who was in a cold disguise, I don't know when, it had been deeply imprinted in Zilong's heart, indelible, which made Zilong nod heavily, which was a promise to Ed.
"Haha... It's really good, Ai Xue will be very happy if she knows about this, let's go have a few drinks and celebrate, the dishes made by this Yuelai Hotel can be described as famous, I haven't eaten it for a few months, I really miss it, haha..."The family matter has been resolved, a big stone in Ed's heart has finally landed, at this moment, he feels more relaxed than he has ever been, looking at Zilong's eyes have changed a little, the more he looks at Zilong, the more cheerful he is, the more he looks, the more he feels that he has not seen the wrong person.
"Now that the matter has been decided, I think it's time to ask the head of the Ed family to see me for what I really look like. Zilong also smiled with him and said slowly.
"True appearance, is your face fake?" Ed was stunned and looked at Zilong's face suspiciously.
Zilong smiled without saying a word, and raised his hand to take off the Saint King mask on his face, however, when his hand touched the Saint King mask, he suddenly stopped. It occurred to him that he was already the patriarch of the Beast Clan, and that in name only, Sgloll was his wife. Now he wants to marry Ai Xue again, and he has agreed to Ed, and in his heart, he thinks that this seems unreasonable. For a while, Zilong's heart was in a mess, and he didn't know what to do.
"What's the matter, you're not lying to me, you young people, you just like to joke. Seeing Zilong stop suddenly, Ed thought that Zilong was joking just now, so he couldn't help but speak.
"Master Eddard, I have something to tell you. Zilong thought about it, but still said truthfully: "I already have a wife." ”
"So what's the matter?" Ed asked curiously, looking at Zilong.
"What's wrong?" Ed's reaction made Zilong a little displeased, and he frowned and continued, "I already have a wife, so I can't marry Ai Xue anymore." ”
"Whoever says you can't marry someone else if you have a wife, it's very hard to find a man like you now. What's more, on the Xiangyun Continent, which man does not have a few women by his side, but even if I am not mistaken, you are indeed affectionate and righteous. Ed looked at Zilong with a smile, as if to say something insignificant.
"But, Ai Xue, won't she mind?" After hearing Ed's explanation, Zilong asked uncertainly, although he was a little relieved.
"Don't worry, although Xue'er is cold, she is still very open, don't take this matter to heart, unless, you want to regret it. ”
Zilong smiled faintly, took off the Saint King mask on his face, and in an instant, the original ordinary appearance that could no longer be ordinary turned into a red-haired and white-eyed face, but it looked extremely coordinated.
Ed was stunned for a moment, looking at Zilong motionlessly. He never thought that there was such a thing in this world, so, yes, a perfect man, and now he can only use this word to describe Zilong, although the red hair, white eyebrows and blue eyes look a little weird, but it has a strange beauty, so that people can't find any flaws, just like a piece of beautiful jade, which makes people can't stop admiring.
"You look like this, not to mention having a wife, even if the women of the entire Xiangyun Continent are devoted to you, I have no doubt. Ed looked at Zilong excitedly, and said in a trembling voice.
Zilong smiled faintly and said slowly: "Ed family master, you have won the award, but I'm afraid I won't be able to drink with you." I want to prepare, and leave Gunsmoke City tonight to rush back to the Huo family to prepare a wedding that Ai Xue will never forget. ”
Ed smiled and patted Zilong on the shoulder, and said loudly: "It's okay, I'm also looking forward to what kind of sensation your wedding with my daughter will cause, I hope you don't disappoint me." After saying that, Ed walked out of the room with a smile on his face, knowing that he was still full of joy when he left the Yuelai Hotel.
After sending Ed away, Zilong brought the Saint King mask again, found Huijia, asked him about the location of the weapon shop, and walked out of the Yuelai Hotel with Tiger in tow. As he walked down the street, pedestrians threw curious glances at Tiger, especially some girls, who screamed and surrounded Zilong, shouting, "What a cute, strange little mouse." ”
This scene made Tiger a little annoyed, and Zilong finally got rid of the girls' entanglement and quickly rushed to the weapon shop. Tiger was on his shoulder, muttering complainingly: "It's so hateful to say that the great Tiger King is like a little mouse, where am I like a mouse, if it weren't for the master to stop it, I would have eaten them all in one bite, hum." ”
Zilong just smiled slightly, ignoring Tiger who had been arguing in his ear. After crossing two streets and walking for a while, Zilong turned into the weapon shop that Hui Jia told him, and when he entered the store, a row of swords made of fine iron hung on the walls, although its craftsmanship was not as good as Tie Zhenying, but it was definitely a fine product.
When a waiter saw Zilong entering, he couldn't help but greet him, and said politely: "This gentleman, what do you need, we have the best sword here, and we can also tailor it for you, absolutely with quality and quantity." ”
Zilong nodded and smiled: "I need some spirit stones to record sounds, I don't know if you have them here." ”
"Of course, it's just that the price of this spirit stone is more expensive, I don't know how much you want?" the waiter looked at the dragon for a moment, and then said.
"Twenty. Zilong said lightly......
"Twenty pieces, sir, this spirit stone is five hundred gold coins each, if it is twenty, it is ten thousand gold coins, you see..."
Without waiting for the waiter to finish, Zilong handed over the spar card and said with a smile, "Help me wrap it." ”
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and then took the spar card and said excitedly: "Okay, sir, please wait a minute, it will be fine immediately." ”
Soon, a chubby man in his thirties walked out, followed by a waiter holding a metal box, "Honorable sir, I am the owner of this small shop, do you need anything else? ”
"No need, I just need the Lingsu Stone. Zilong glanced at the boss and said lightly.
"Well, the master craftsman Qin Ling is in my shop, his craftsmanship is the best in the entire continent, even the royal family will spend a lot of money to ask for it, you see..."
Without waiting for the boss to finish speaking, Zilong walked to the waiter and took the metal box in his hand, put away the spar card on the box, and left the weapon shop without looking back, leaving the fat boss with a regretful face, looking at the direction where Zilong left, and muttered to himself: "It's a pity, it's a pity, a big customer just left." ”
After returning to the Yuelai Hotel, Zilong asked Tiger to stay in the living room, walked into the bedroom and closed the door, and never came out again, before that, he had told Tiger that there was nothing important not to disturb him.
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, the sun sets in the west, and night comes, and the stars slowly rise into the sky with the beautiful moon, illuminating the entire continent.
At this time, Zilong had just walked out of the bedroom and looked at Tiger who was already asleep, and he gently pulled Tiger by the tail and lifted Tiger upside down.
Once, this is what Zilong often does to **, but Tiger is not like ** general snooze, after being lifted by Zilong, he opened his eyes, although he was a little confused, but he still levitated in the air and got rid of Zilong's 'clutches'.
"Master, you're out, what have you been doing for half a day?" Tiger moved his body, made a few difficult movements in the air, and said to Zilong.
"Now, can you find Gu Mo?" Zilong asked without answering.
"Of course, I left a trace of consciousness on the child, and I could find him wherever he went. Tiger heard Zilong ask, so he replied a little proudly.
Zilong nodded, and said with a smile: "That's good, I have something for you to send to Gu Mo, you have to come back tomorrow morning, can you do it." ”
"Master, wait a minute. With that, Tiger landed on the table in the living room, closed his eyes, and began to feel where Gu Mo was. After a while, Tiger slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zilong and said, "Master, although the kid is far away from here, with my speed, I promise to be able to come back tomorrow morning." ”
With a slight bow, Zilong turned around and walked back to the bedroom, took out the metal box, and instructed Tiger to say, "You give this to Gu Mo and tell him that within a month, send every spirit stone in it to the address written on it." After you finish sending it, hurry up and come back, tomorrow we will rush to the Qiming Empire. ”
In an instant, Tiger's body skyrocketed, changing back to its original size, and the long tiger tail rolled up, wrapped the metal box firmly, and said to Zilong: "I have been flying eastward, and I will see him soon." "After that, it's time to take off...
"Wait, you said that Gu Mo is heading east, and that is the direction of the Qiming Empire. That's right, I'll go with you, and after that, we'll rush to the Qiming Empire overnight. After saying that, Zilong jumped on Tiger's back, and then Tiger flew into the air and flew out of the window...
In the night, Gu Mo walked alone with a mammoth, walking in the vast forest, walking in the direction of the Qiming Empire, with the speed at which he was walking and strolling around now, a month was more than enough to reach the city, he was not in a hurry, he wanted to use this month's time to learn more about the knowledge needed to live on this continent, Gu Mo understood, this is also the reason why Zilong let him walk alone.
