9 Strange Man Ink Boy

Strange ink boy

After hearing this, Yuwen Hu's two sons suddenly realized, "I see! These words came out of their mouths in unison. It turned out that they had recently heard about the civil unrest in Qi, and Gao Zhan suddenly rebelled against his brother.

But as far as they know, with the current strength of Gao Zhan, there is no chance of turning the tables, but now sitting firmly on the throne, it turns out that Zhu Xuanzhi, a dragon wizard, is helping.

Knowing this, Yu Wenxun squeezed the teacup stiffly, while Yu Wenshen had a blazing light in his eyes, and the two brothers now have a plan: they must include this person under their command!

But what is Zhu Xuanzhi, who is now being thought about by people, what is he doing now?

It turned out that Dugu Zhen and Yu Wenruo stayed in their respective mansions for two days since they returned to Chang'an, and early in the morning of the third day, they came to Dugu's Taoyuan. As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, they heard the sound of a clear and graceful flute flying out of it, which made people unconsciously stop and stop to listen.

In the early morning when the morning glow was scattered, the long street paved with blue bricks, the peach blossoms in March, and the flute sound like a spirit bird, Dugu Zhen and the two stopped outside the hospital, unconsciously, fascinated......

"Why don't you come in early in the morning, why are you standing outside stunned?" The two of them were suddenly awakened by a hearty greeting.

"Oops, wonderful! Wonderful! Duyan Brother Zhu is talented in the rivers and lakes, and he is knowledgeable in the world, but he didn't expect that his attainments in music and rhythm are so high, which really makes me admire it very much. Wen Ruo clapped his hands and praised as he walked inside.

"Wen Ruo - you forgot again, you should be called Brother Lan!" Dugu Zhen reminded.

"It's okay, it's all my own brothers." Lan Jun said with a smile. After that, he invited the two of them to sit down, then picked up two jasper tea bowls from the black tea tray, then picked up a jasper pot and filled the bowl with tea, put it in front of Wen Ruo and the others, and said, "Please drink tea, why are you free today, come to see me together?" ”

Ask Ruo picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, put down the tea bowl and sighed and said: "Hey, Brother Lan, you don't know, I didn't find my father after I went home, and then I went directly to the temple outside the city to visit his old man, he casually told me a few words and let me come back, and said that I should not run around." Staying at home really feels that life is boring, so I came here with Dugu to find you. ”

"Is General Yu okay?" Lan Jun continued to fill him with a bowl of tea and asked.

"Thank you Brother Lan for greetings, my father - Green Lantern Ancient Buddha, meditation and meditation, nothing bad." Wen Ruo was a little depressed. ”

"Uncle Yu is an open-minded and chic master, you don't have to be too low, maybe we haven't cultivated to the realm where everything is like a cloud. I've got a buzz here, and you're going to be interested. Dugu Zhen pretended to be mysterious and said.

"What's the matter! Come and hear it! Wen Ruo, who was still a little depressed just now, suddenly came to his senses. Hurriedly asked.

Lan Jun and Dugu Zhen couldn't help but shake their heads and smile when they saw him like this. Dugu Zhen deliberately slowed down his tone and said slowly: "It's very lively, and there will be great joy in the near future." ”

"Your Majesty is getting married?" Lan Jun asked suddenly.

"How do you know?" Dugu Zhen and the two asked in unison.

"Have you said that you are happy to be in heaven? Isn't it royal to look at the heavenly family? Besides, hasn't Tsukasa been negotiating peace with the Turks, and is ready to marry a Turkic princess to His Majesty as a queen, and this matter has been negotiated? Lan Jun asked.

"The auspicious days have been set, next month, when the Northern Qi, Southern Chen, Turkic, and Tuyuhun will all send envoys to congratulate them." Dugu Zhen said a little excitedly.

"Really, that's great, there's a lot of excitement to watch again." Wen Ruo rubbed his hands and said.

"Your Majesty is married, and you are not marrying a daughter-in-law, what are you happy about? Oh, and one more thing, that is, Princess Qingshi may also be getting married. Dugu Zhen said another piece of news.

"Princess Qingshi? And with whom? Marry or recruit a concubine? Lan Jun asked sharply.

"There's no definite news about this, it's all up to Tsukasa to decide anyway. However, it is very likely that they are married to the Turks, after all, they have married a princess, and we have to marry one to be reasonable. Dugu Zhen speculated.

"Joke, Princess Qingshi is the princess of Tuyuhun and the righteous daughter of King Wen, whether to marry or not is not up to him Yuwen Hu alone, at least it has to be agreed by the old prince Murong of Tuyuhun." Wen Ruo's tone was quite displeased.

"Having said that, Princess Qingshi is not young after all, and the old prince Murong is a little anxious, besides, marrying into the Turks can be regarded as benefiting the people...... Dugu Zhen said.

"Shit! At the beginning, the people of the Murong family sent their sisters and brothers to Chang'an, and they had a little bit of the meaning of being hostages, but fortunately, King Wen treated them as royal courtesies for the sake of friendship between the two countries, and now they are going to be married to the Turks, who have a deep blood feud with my Great Zhou, if they really marry there...... Alas, what a miserable life. Wen Ruo said angrily.

"Huh-Wen Ruo, why are you yelling at me, it's not like I'm going to marry the princess as a bargaining chip. But you're right, hey, if it weren't for the disaster more than ten years ago, the princess would have stayed and flown together......" Dugu Zhen sighed.

Lan Jun lowered his head, his eyes looked at the dry tea set in front of him, and his right hand tightly pinched the string of prayer beads in his hand, as if he was quietly listening to the discussion between the two of them, as if it was not...... After a while, he said slowly: "It is common for countries to play games and gather and disperse because of interests, but if there is a deep feud in the sea of blood, it should be put down for the sake of the overall situation." ”

At this time, the three of them all lowered their heads and fell into silence, and after a while, Dugu Zhen saw that Lan Jun was also silent, and there was still a trace of unstretched between his eyebrows. He asked strangely, "Brother Lan?" What's wrong with you, you also know about Princess Qingshi, right? ”

Lan Jun moved for a moment and said: "I have also heard some things before and after, Her Royal Highness the princess has a bumpy love road, but fortunately, the princess is an open-minded person, and her will is stronger than that of ordinary men, I believe she will handle everything of herself." ”

"Well, Brother Lan is right, Her Royal Highness the princess is indeed not an ordinary daughter's family, we should believe in her and bless her." Wen Ruo looked up and said.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, the two sons are famous people in Chang'an, aren't you going to take me for a walk?" Lan Jun seemed to divert the topic.

"Yes, it's time for us to do our duty as landlords, so let's go." Wen Ruo said, and he had already gotten up to leave.

"Okay, let me change my clothes." Lan Jun got up and went to the house, as if he wanted to be alone.

When he arrived on the street, Wen Ruo was full of interest, and Dugu was quiet when he was shocked, but Lan Jun was not surprised by the prosperity of Chang'an, nor was he infected by the bustling scene, and walked on the street a little calmly, but sometimes Wen Ruo was pulled down here to see this, and dragged over there to see that, and the two guards who followed Lan Jun were a little embarrassed.

Suddenly, Lan Jun pointed to a strangely shaped building and said, "Let's go there and have a look, and take a break by the way." ”

"Okay, let's go over there." Dugu Zhen said.

A few people came to the strange attic, Wen Ruo gave a thumbs up to Lan Jun and said: "Brother Lan is really good at picking a place, this place is the most interesting in my opinion, Brother Lan, do you know, this strange attic was designed by a person named Mo Tong, according to legend, he is the descendant of the Mo family among the hundred sons of the Warring States Period, he is the first skilled craftsman in my Great Zhou, and many people have asked him to build a house." ”

"Are you asking him to repair the secret passage?" Lan Jun said with a smile.

"Brother Lan, do you know this person?" Dugu Zhen asked.

"The number one craftsman in Da Zhou is famous." Lan Jun said with a smile.

"Yes, but this skill of the Mo predecessor has also caused him a lot of trouble, someone asked him to finish repairing the secret room, and he wanted to kill him, but he escaped, so he simply built such an attic in this downtown to anger those people." Wen Ruo said.

Lan Jun nodded, raised his feet and walked inside, Dugu Zhen hurriedly followed, and admonished: "Brother Lan, be careful, don't walk around inside, there are many organs inside, and that senior Mo has a perverse temperament, not an easy person!" ”

"Okay, then let's go in and see." Lan Jun said, and went directly to the innermost two doors, pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Dugu Zhen and the others while shouting to be careful, and quickly followed in.

When they entered, they found that it was a room with wooden walls on all sides. After Wen Ruo came in, he closed the door tightly with a latch, and then pulled a small wrench at the door four times, and after hearing the silver bell ring four times, the whole room slowly rose. After a while, the whole room returned to stability, Wen Ruo went over and opened the door, and everyone came out. Out of the door, walked through a narrow and dark corridor, came to a door on the right side of the corridor, everyone stopped in front of the door, but heard the sound of "ping pong" from the house. Lan Jun stepped forward and knocked on the door three times, then knocked twice,

"Who? In broad daylight, knock on the ghost! I don't want to be bothered right now, get out! There was an extremely irritated roar from inside.

When Lan Jun heard this voice, he smiled and pushed the door open, because the light suddenly became stronger, Lan Jun unconsciously squinted his eyes, but at this moment of squinting, a piece of wood flew over his forehead......

"Senior Mo, it's us." Dugu Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the piece of wood and reported to himself.

In the middle of the door, there was a much larger than normal table, filled with tools, wood, and unspeakable iron. Behind the table, I saw a disheveled, disheveled upper body lying on it, his hands fiddling with a pile of parts. As if he knew that someone came in and couldn't continue the work in his hand, he simply threw the tools in his hand on the table. He looked up at the man at the door......

"Shudi Bamboo Sea, Xuanzhi and Xuan! Ha ha! Bamboo boy, I miss my brother to death! As soon as the words fell, the body that seemed to be only half cut just now suddenly churned, jumped over the wide table in front of him, and jumped after landing on the ground, and hung directly on Lan Jun's body.

Lan Jun hurriedly pushed his head with one hand and his shoulder with the other, and struggled to say, "Senior Mo, can you get off me first?" You...... How long has it been since you took a shower? ”

When everyone heard this, they covered their mouths and were afraid to laugh. The old face of the person known as Senior Mo turned red for a while, and he hurriedly got off Lan Jun's body, straightened his hair and clothes, pretended to cough twice, and said, "Eh-everyone hasn't eaten, come, I invite you to tea, drink tea......"
