Xue Tao ordered Jiupin barbecue for Ailang, but she drank a bowl of white fungus lotus seed porridge herself, she took a sip of porridge, and looked at Ailang with a snicker.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at you for being a hungry god, like you haven't eaten for hundreds of years."

Guo Song generally ate half of the barbecue, he was a little embarrassed and said: "It's really a little hungry, you taste a little, the roast is really good, this Tongzhou bitter spring sheep is indeed very authentic." ”

"Eat it yourself! It's enough for me to drink this bowl of porridge, I don't eat much meat at night, I can eat a little at noon. ”

"Then you're welcome!"

Guo Song used a dagger to cut open a piece of roast mutton, put it in his mouth and chewed it.

Full of wine and food, Guo Song's spirit was greatly invigorated, the two of them held hands and went out of the Kaihua Workshop, along the Zhuque Street to watch the lanterns, Zhuque Street is the central axis of Chang'an, from the Mingde Gate to the main gate of the Taiji Palace, the Zhuque Gate, about ten miles long, the two sides of the ten miles long street are full of all kinds of lanterns, a street is full of Chinese lanterns, all kinds of lanterns compete for beauty, beautiful.

The lanterns on Zhuque Street are mainly the lanterns offered by the wealthy and powerful families of Chang'an and the states and festivals of the world, and there are thousands of them.

The lanterns in the east and west markets are made by businesses, and merchants have to consider the cost, the purpose is to advertise their stores, and naturally want to do good quality and low price, so the lights in the two cities look good, but in fact, they can't stand a closer look, and you will find that they are generally rough, although there are also individual exquisite, but only individually, and the mainstream is rough.

But the lanterns on both sides of Suzaku Street are on the contrary, the rich and powerful and the state capitals are secretly competing, regardless of the material, regardless of the cost, with the best craftsmen, the lanterns are made beautiful, exquisite, and have to be changed every year, every year in the lanterns have caused a huge waste, but also fattened a lot of people.

Because of this, Zhuque Street has become the best place to enjoy the lights in Chang'an, hundreds of thousands of people flock to the ten-mile-long Zhuque Street, the grand occasion is unprecedented, and it is full of laughter and laughter.

This year's atmosphere is even warmer than last year's, mainly because the Hui mission has been driven away, and without the nearly 1,000 murderous Hui soldiers, the people of Chang'an have a much better sense of security.

Although there are also people like the Yuan Demon King, they have to consider the reputation of the family after all, and they generally do it relatively secretly, and the public robbery incident will not happen, and there are groups of ruffians and scoundrels, although they are very, they only dare to take advantage of a small advantage, and they dare not do the real evil things.

As for the two deaths and one injury incident in Dongshi, they also deserved it, and they offended Guo Song, the fierce god.

"Guo Lang, I can't walk anymore!" Xue Tao beat his knee with a small pink fist and said coquettishly to Ailang.

"Then I'll carry you!" Guo Song said with a smile.

"Nonsense! What do you carry on your back? ”

"I'll get you an ox cart."

This method is not bad, Xue Tao looked around, there were ox carts on the street, but they were basically the cars of the major wealthy families, followed by family guards.

"Uncle Junior!"

Guo Song suddenly heard a familiar voice, he hurriedly turned around, only to see a young man waving to him, it was Sun Xiaozhen, the apprentice of the fourth brother Yang Yu, Guo Song laughed, he hadn't seen him for several years.

Sun Xiaozhen squeezed over, followed by a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, a little shy, but his eyes secretly looked at Xue Tao.

"Uncle Junior, I haven't seen you for a long time." Sun Xiaozhen saluted happily.

Guo Song lightly punched him in the shoulder, Sun Xiaozhen took a step back, Guo Song nodded, "Yes, martial arts have improved a lot!" ”

His punch contained dark energy, and it didn't seem to be heavy, but ordinary warriors had to take at least five or six steps back, but Sun Xiaozhen actually only took one step back, and his martial arts really improved.

Sun Xiaozhen scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "The competition in the Hidden Sword Pavilion is very fierce, if you don't work hard, you will be eliminated, I have been promoted to a second-level warrior last year, and my master is a first-level warrior who is in charge of Ziqingtang." ”

"It's good to know how to be motivated, that's your brother?" Guo Song glanced at the young man behind him.

"This is my apprentice Liang Guo, my name is Ah Guo, he is also from Chang'an, and he worshipped last year."

He turned around and beckoned, "Why don't you come over and kowtow to Uncle Shi?" ”

What a mess, he turned out to be a master and uncle, Guo Song hurriedly waved his hand, "Uncle Shi sounds too old-fashioned, you don't need to be polite, you are the head snake, can you help me find an ox cart?" ”

Sun Xiaozhen forced his apprentice to kneel down and kowtowed to Guo Song, then said with a smile: "Master really asked the right person, my apprentice's family is driving a horse, just in front of Lanlingfang, I asked him to get a carriage." ”

"It's not convenient for the carriage to look at the lights, and I pay for the ox cart."

"What are you doing with the money?"

Sun Xiaozhen instructed his apprentice a few words, Liang Guo ran south along the root of the wall, seeing him running hard, Guo Song was a little suspicious that he was trying to please Xue Tao, not to give himself face, this kid has been peeking at Xue Tao.

"Uncle Xiao, is this Aunt Xiao?" Sun Xiaozhen couldn't help but scratch her head and asked with a smile.

Guo Song smiled and nodded, and introduced this 'nephew' to Xue Tao, Xue Tao gave him a blessing ceremony, Sun Xiaozhen was suddenly at a loss, and waved his hand again and again: "I am a junior, I can't afford such a lot of courtesy." ”

"That's it!"

Guo Song knocked on him, "It's just a courtesy, don't make such a fuss, how are your parents and brothers?" ”

"My parents and brothers are good, my brother can also stand alone, our family is going to open another branch in the West Market, and my brother will be in charge, Uncle Xiao, my father and they often think about you, thank you for saving your life."

"It's been so long, what do you remember it for, what about your master, when will he return to Beijing?"

"Who knows? Master is now the fourth person in the Hidden Sword Pavilion, his whereabouts are very secretive, now the old pavilion master basically doesn't ask about the Hidden Sword Pavilion, it is all Li Man who presides over the overall situation, now the Hidden Sword Pavilion is different from before, the number has surged to more than a thousand people, there are many factions, Master and I belong to the old pavilion master faction, it is no longer the mainstream, now the new pavilion master faction is in power, I plan to go to the master next month. ”

Guo Song could hear that he was a little dissatisfied with the new pavilion master Li Man, it seems that after Li Man took power, the Tibetan Sword Pavilion has indeed changed a lot, and it is completely different from the era of Gongsun Auntie.

"By the way, Master got married last year." Sun Xiaozhen suddenly remembered this.

Guo Song was stunned, "Your master is married, why don't I know?" ”

Guo Song was a little dissatisfied in his heart, Yang Yu got married, and he must not even tell the senior brother and the third senior brother, what is this called?

Sun Xiaozhen smiled bitterly: "He got married internally, and he didn't announce it to the public, not to mention Uncle Xiao, and even many people in the Hidden Sword Pavilion didn't know about it." ”

Sun Xiaozhen was silent for a while and said: "Master's marriage is actually a means for Li Man to entrap the master, and the bride is her apprentice, called Wang Jianying, and Uncle Xiao should also know." ”

Guo Song nodded, it turned out to be her, he still had a little impression, a very proud young woman, who was pinned on by Aunt Gongsun, and had the hope of becoming the successor of the Tibetan Sword Pavilion, she actually married the fourth senior brother, this Li Man really had some means, and began to use beauty to envelop his subordinates, it seems that the fourth senior brother is really good in the Tibetan Sword Pavilion.

Among Guo Song's four senior brothers, he and the third Gan Lei have the deepest relationship, but the most grateful in his heart is the fourth senior brother Ganyu, when he first went to Kongtong Mountain, the fourth senior brother has always been grateful to him for taking care of him, but after the fourth senior brother entered the Tibetan Sword Pavilion, he gradually became estranged from himself, perhaps because of his professional requirements, he was also helpless, but it was an indisputable fact that he was estranged from himself.

Guo Song felt a little sad in his heart, Xue Tao gently pulled him, he woke up from his thoughts, and saw an ox cart coming this way, Liang Guo jumped out of the ox cart and said, "Master, the ox cart is coming!" ”

Sun Xiaozhen smiled at Guo Song and said, "Uncle Xiaoshi, get in the car!" ”

Guo Song really likes this Sun Xiaozhen, and he also helped himself a lot back then, Guo Song patted him on the shoulder, "If you have any difficulties, just come to me, I will try my best to help you." ”

Sun Xiaozhen's heart was moved, his voice was a little choked, he lowered his head and said, "I remember!" ”

Guo Song helped Xue Tao get into the ox cart, and smiled at Liang Guo again: "Thank you!" ”

They closed the back door, and the ox cart took off and slowly headed south.

Liang Guo sighed softly and said, "The fairy has descended to earth! ”

Sun Xiaozhen knocked on his head, "Don't be delusional, my uncle is the governor of Ganzhou, a high-ranking official of the third grade, your little bit of caution, hurry up and dispel it!" ”

Liang Guo heard that his uncle was the governor of Ganzhou, and he felt a little remorseful in his heart, he seemed to have missed an opportunity, he scratched his head for a while and said, "Master, haven't you noticed?" Uncle Shi's wife is still wearing a ring bun. ”

Sun Xiaozhen was stunned, he really didn't notice that combing his hair means that he is unmarried, could it be that the little uncle and aunt are not married yet?

"What a pity! Should have kowtowed a few more just now. Liang Guo said with a look of remorse.

Sun Xiaozhen knocked on the apprentice's head and said with a smile: "Don't regret it, you lend him an ox cart, and he will receive your favor." ”

Liang Guo was secretly glad in his heart, in order to please the beauty, he took out the best ox cart in the store, hoping that Uncle Shi could lead his favor.
