Three. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Lu sat in the big restaurant in Qingzhou, the dancers in front of him were dancing the beautiful flying dance, the luminous glass on the table was filled with fine wine, the left hand side was unintentional, the right hand side was the invisible clouds, the singing and dancing were leveling, and his whole person was a little fluttering.
Fan Mengqiu sat on the edge of the water with a smile on his face, drinking glass after glass, Li Lu went to see him from time to time, but never spoke.
Li Lu was stopped by this person in the wilderness, and he grabbed him directly on the city wall with his collar, Li Lu subconsciously took out the Dao talisman, didn't see it clearly in the panic, took a fire talisman, and almost burned Fan Mengqiu's eyebrows.
When Li Lu was in Yinguo, he received news from his master, and after arriving in Chenguo, he went to see King Yuwen, and King Yuwen had something to ask for.
Before Li Lu could go to King Yuwen himself, King Yuwen sent someone to find him.
To be honest, Li Lu was invited to Qingzhou for so long, and King Yuwen only asked Fan Mengqiu to take him around to play, and he didn't say anything please, he ate and drank for nothing for several days, which made Li Lu embarrassed. Jing and Zhenren are not like Zihui Zhenren who travels all over the world, does not ask about the world, he is not a person who is too peaceful, it is said that as long as you can afford to pay, he will come to help you, if you don't want to come, you will also call your apprentice Li Lu to come.
Li Lu only graduated from the school last year, and he was planning to travel around the country to experience and experience, but he didn't want to be sent a big task by the master.
Li Lu is beautiful in her arms, drinking good wine, listening to good songs, I have to admit that Chenguo is indeed a good place. Shui has no intention of being charming, and Yun Wuwu is well-behaved, and with the two of them by his side for the past two days, Li Lu is not boring at all, and he has already left behind the rules and precepts of cultivators that the master said.
I don't know how long it took, Li Lu found that Fan Mengqiu's seat was gone.
Shui didn't seem to see what he was going to ask, so he said: "Boss Fan has always been like this, he likes to stay alone, and it is estimated that he will look at the stars on the big stone outside at this time, if Daochang Li wants to go to him, put on a coat and go again." As he spoke, Yun Wuwu had already handed over the cloak.
Li Lu put on his cloak. He drank another glass of wine and walked out.
Sure enough, Fan Mengqiu was lying alone on the big stone outside the restaurant, motionless, with the sword at his waist pinned to the side. Li Lu just walked over. Fan Mengqiu asked, "Why don't you continue to watch it?" ”
"I've been watching it for days." Li Lu couldn't help but say, "What is there to ask me about King Yuwen?" ”
"The prince is not in a hurry, what are you anxious about." Fan Mengqiu smiled, "Since the prince lets you enjoy yourself, you will enjoy it." ”
"But I'm a Taoist family. It shouldn't have been..."
"Shouldn't you drink?" Fan Mengqiu sat up, "Go to his rules and precepts, this is the Du family's wine, have you heard of the Yu Shun Du family?" The descendants of the wine ancestor Du Kang, such a good wine, you can't drink it when you leave the Chen Kingdom. ”
Li Luxin said that you started to change the topic again, so he said, "Can you show me your sword?" ”
"Yes." Fan Mengqiu said generously, "You can get it yourself." ”
Li Luxin said can't you give it to me? What's wrong with this man? Fan Mengqiu unsheathed his sword, handed it to him, and immediately let go. Fan Mengqiu let go. Li Lu almost didn't catch it, and the whole person asked this sword to go down.
"It's so heavy!" Li Lu couldn't help but say.
"It's called Si Ming, it was built by the thousands of years of cold iron on the Tianshan Mountain in the Chen Kingdom for seven seven and forty-nine days, can it not be heavy?" Fan Mengqiu said with a smile.
"Then how do you get it... So easy? ”
"I started using the Si Ming Sword at the age of fifteen, naturally I am different from you, I am a martial arts practitioner, and you are a Taoist priest." Fan Mengqiu looked at his clothes and added, "I'm still a Taoist priest with peculiar tastes and likes to wear green clothes." ”
Li Lu shouted: "What's wrong with green? What's wrong with green? ”
"Nothing bad. I'm just wondering if your hat will be green too. ”
"A cultivator does not marry a wife." Li Lu snorted, "Say it again." Green is also better looking than your black clothes. ”
Fan Mengqiu smiled, stopped arguing with him, and lay down again.
"Did I mention you're a very bad guy?" Li Lu didn't say a word after seeing him lie down, and couldn't help but say.
Fan Mengqiu didn't move, and said, "We need you to use blood to float." ”
Li Lu was stunned.
"Three days later, in the wilderness."
Li Lu digested these two sentences for a long time. Cai said: "Floating slaughter with blood? What are you going to do? For whom? King Ping? Or is it the king himself? ”
Li Lu has also heard of the civil strife in Chenguo, although Mao is a neighbor of Chen, but everyone adheres to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries and does not interfere with each other. It's just that if King Yuwen wants to use blood to float the slaughter, it is a major matter for many lives.
"For the little prince." Fan Mengqiu didn't know what he was thinking, and his tone was very desolate, "Three days later, let's go to the wasteland together." ”
"Why, why do you want to renew the life of the little prince? Are you little princes dying? ”
"Don't ask so much, the less you know, the safer, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Mao Kingdom completely." Fan Mengqiu got up and looked at him, "After the Blood Floating Massacre is completed, you will leave the Chen Kingdom immediately, and you will not come back for a few years." ”
Li Lu was puzzled, and Fan Mengqiu continued: "Chenguo is about to be in chaos, not to mention whether the civil strife can be solved, the country will inevitably send troops to Chenguo at the beginning of spring next year, and when the time comes, the people will not be able to make a living, and it is not safe for you to come here." ”
"I see that you are also a good heart, how can you bear to use the people of a city to prolong the life of one person?"
"Since you are Jing He Zhenren's apprentice, you naturally know that Jing He Zhenren once used the Blood Floating Slaughter to renew the lives of many people, what's so strange?" Fan Mengqiu said lightly, "You cultivators, don't you only rely on your own preferences and don't ask about righteousness and ethics? ”
"I don't like to hear that."
"It doesn't matter, I'm not speaking for the sake of being obedient anyway." Fan Mengqiu lay down again, this time no matter how Li Lu talked to him, he didn't respond, and when Li Lu stepped forward to look, he had already closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Li Lu said helplessly: "What a weird person." ”
In June, King Yuwen slaughtered the wasteland and blocked the news, so the small city of the wasteland disappeared from the territory of the Chen Kingdom.
The capital of Chenguo Wucheng, the prime minister's house.
Zhou Yumo got up early in the morning and found that the entire Prime Minister's Mansion was quiet, Zhou Yulan was temporarily called to the palace by the national teacher, Zhou Yumo turned around a few times and didn't find anyone who could play chess with him, just about to go to find Cong Yilian, Du Duzhen and Yin Sangluo came in a hurry.
"Seventh Master." After Du Duzhen saluted, he asked, "What about Xiangye?" ”
"Yu Lan has entered the palace." Zhou Yumo said with a smile. "It's a bad luck for you to come today, but the fifth brother doesn't know where to play, and the eighth sister went out with Dong Kui, the whole Xiangfu. I'm all that left. It's better for you to sit in the Prime Minister's Mansion, presumably Yu Lan will be back soon. ”
"The Prime Minister's Mansion has been recently, but has anyone broken in?" Du Duzhen asked.
Zhou Yumo was also very strange by his question, and began to recall: "Only a few days ago, the fifth brother in the middle of the night made a fuss. said that there were thieves in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and after a night of trouble, no thieves were found, Yu Lan asked more people to come and guard the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it was okay these days. ”
"Fifth Master?" Du Duzhen raised his eyebrows, "Fifth Master usually doesn't sleep well?" ”
"The fifth brother slept well, after all, the fifth brother has no mind, he is carefree all day long, he eats well and sleeps well." Zhou Yumo smiled, "It's not like Yulan." Worrying day and night, often having headaches and not being able to sleep. As if he had thought of something, he smiled and said, "You came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today to investigate the case?" ”
Du Duzhen smiled: "No, just ask a few words, then Miss Yin and I are waiting for the master here, if the fifth master comes back, please also ask the seventh master to tell me." ”
"No problem. Qiu Ling, take Boss Du and Miss Yin to rest. Zhou Yumo called a small servant and led the two to sit in the house.
Du Duzhen and Yin Sang fell into the house, turning over the flower rope and waiting for Zhou Yulan. Playing and playing, Zhou Yubai poked his head out of the window: "Brother Duzhen, are you looking for me?" "Fifth master, come in and sit." Du Duzhen saw Zhou Yubai coming. Laughing and pulling out a candy from his arms. Zhou Yubai immediately came in through the window, grabbed the candy and ate it.
"Does the fifth master like Xiangye?" Du Duzhen asked.
"Yulan?" Zhou Yubai smiled and said, "I like it, I like it." ”
"The person who protects Xiangye at night, isn't it you?" Du Duzhen asked, "Fifth Master." You're not crazy, are you? ”
Yin Sangluo snorted and laughed: "Old fox, say you are smart, why are you so stupid today?" Brother Yubai has been crazy for more than ten years, do you say he is not crazy? Hahahaha, you won't come to the Prime Minister's Mansion just to ask this, right? ”
Zhou Yubai also looked at Du Duzhen in a daze, and shouted, "Who is crazy?" Who? I? ”
"Okay, okay, Brother Yubai, let's not worry about him." Yin Sang said, "Come here, I'll teach you how to turn the flower rope." ”
Du Duzhen looked at Zhou Yubai watching Yin Sang fall over the flower rope with great interest, and she was also suspicious, could it really be that I thought too much? After all, Zhou Yubai is stupid at the age of ten, this is a well-known thing, even if an adult wants to pretend to be stupid for ten years, it is very difficult, let alone a ten-year-old child? But apart from Zhou Yubai, who can come and go freely in the Prime Minister's Mansion without being suspected? Who was the swordsman chasing Fengge in the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time?
Du Duzhen was puzzled, the national teacher had never arranged any swordsmen in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Zhou Yulan would not know any swordsmen, so who was protecting Zhou Yulan in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Could it be that there are other forces hiding in the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Du Duzhen thought about it, and heard Qiu Ling say: "Xiangye is back!" ”
Feng Ge's affairs couldn't be known to Yin Sangluo and Zhou Yubai, so Du Duzhen coaxed them to play here, and went directly to the study to find Zhou Yulan.
Prime minister's study.
"You said that the swordsman from the back then appeared again?"
"Yes, I got a handkerchief in my house today to warn Feng Ge." Du Duzhen frowned, "It must have been Feng Ge who came to your house a few days ago and was discovered by him." ”
"No wonder the fifth brother said that there was a thief at home a few days ago." I raised an eyebrow, "Who the hell is this swordsman?" How come it has always been in my prime minister's house? ”
"I'm just wondering about this, originally I just hoped that Feng Ge would show more horses and feet when he was looking for the jade saucer, so I could follow the tail and keep touching to find Feng Ge's connector, but Feng Ge's actions in the Xiangfu were destroyed by this swordsman every time, and I don't know if this swordsman is friend or foe to us." Du Duzhen touched his chin.
"Didn't I say, where did you hide the jade saucer, Feng Ge searched for more than ten days and didn't find it?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Guess what." Du Duzhen smiled mysteriously.
"If I guessed, you wouldn't be the king of Hades, and you would have to hand over the Hades team to me."
Du Duzhen smiled: "I hid the jade disc on you." ”
"Me? On me? My eyes widened, "I don't have any jade saucers on me...... Wait a minute! "I suddenly remembered that Du Duzhen seemed to have really put the jade plate here for me. (To be continued.) )
