The moon is bright and the autumn is cool.

There was a knock on the door outside Ye Gucheng's room.

"Who?"

"Ye Gucheng, the eldest lady is invited!"

"It's coming!"

Ye Gucheng quickly put away the broken clothes, tidied up the clothes, and opened the door.

The person who came was a maid named Cui'er, and as soon as she made eye contact with Ye Gucheng, she looked away a little shyly, and immediately took Ye Gucheng to the garden.

On the gazebo, Li Yueli set up the pastries early, and when she saw Ye Gucheng coming, she motioned to sit down, and immediately ordered the personal maid to retreat.

The maid stopped talking and slowly retreated.

"Ye Gucheng, tell me honestly, where did you come from? Where did you learn from? Why can you be civil and martial?" Li Yueli was really curious about Ye Gucheng, and the shock brought to her by the scene of today's poetry meeting was so strong that she couldn't sleep and ask what was going on.

If it is said that at the beginning, Li Yueli was humiliated by the pair, then the poems that followed were deliberately done by Ye Gucheng, because he understood that if he wanted revenge, it was impossible to be a slave, he had to climb up through Li Yueli, climb to the highest height to have the opportunity to lead the army to attack the Northern Barbarian Land, and he had to kill every enemy, even if it cost his life.

In fact, Ye Gucheng's plan seemed to be working, at least, Li Yueli had already developed a strong interest in him.

"You said it!" Li Yueli saw that Ye Gucheng didn't answer, and her heart was even more anxious, she thought about it and continued: "Don't worry, I promise you that I will never spread it." ”

"The villain's life was saved by the eldest lady, and the eldest lady inquired about it, and she should know that everything is endless. Ye Gucheng sighed and said slowly: "It's not a secret, in fact, the villain comes from another country at the end of the desert, of course, the civilization there is more developed, with high-rise buildings, I don't mean the city here, it is another more superb architectural level, the highest floor has more than 100 floors, according to the algorithm here, about 2187 feet." ”

"2,187 sq.f.?" Li Yueli's eyes were stunned, and she said incredulously: "Isn't that up to the Heavenly Court?"

"So to speak. ”

"Then where can you talk directly to the gods?" Perhaps it is subverting cognition, Li Yueli looks particularly demented.

Ye Gucheng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "That's not good, after all, Heavenly Court is located above the Nine Heavens, and we can only reach the First Heaven at best." ”

Li Yueli's interest was fully aroused, and she hurriedly continued to ask about the world at the end of the desert.

And Ye Gucheng was also very cooperative, answering all the questions, and slowly telling about his experience, of course, many things that should not be talked about were still covered up by him.

In this way, the two in the pavilion chatted until dawn, and Li Yueli went back to the room to rest.

When Ye Gucheng dragged his tired body back to the room, it was already daylight, and because Li Yueli gave the order, no one let him work.

"Xiu'er, you wait, soon, I will have them bury you with you. Ye Gucheng hugged the torn clothes in his arms and slowly fell asleep.

Li Yueli had a deep conversation with Ye Gucheng overnight, and was deeply attracted by everything in the other world, of course, she didn't think that the other party exaggerated the strange talk, however, in the face of being proficient in poetry and songs, astronomy and geography can do everything, she was immediately impressed, and even began to yearn for the world at the end of the desert.

On this day, Li Yueli took Ye Gucheng to ride on the top of the mountain, and then quietly watched the other party tinkering with a flying kite.

Soon, a large wooden kite appeared in front of me.

Li Yueli looked at the thing in front of her and said uncertainly, "Can this thing fly?"

Ye Gucheng just smiled mysteriously, didn't answer, and rushed to the cliff with a wooden kite.

Li Yueli quietly watched the other party's actions like this, until she saw that she was about to rush out of the cliff and still didn't take off, she was shocked, and hurriedly chased and shouted: "Ye Gucheng, be careful of the cliff, the cliff, look at the foot." ”

Ye Gucheng didn't seem to hear the hurried exclamation, and continued to rush forward, stepping on the air under his feet, and the whole person flew out of the cliff.

Li Yueli was stunned, looking at Ye Gucheng who was really flying in the air, her pink fists clenched excitedly, and when she saw the other party waving her hand at her, she immediately jumped and jumped and cheered.

Xiu'er!

Ye Gucheng looked at the excited figure on the mountain peak, his heart suddenly became extremely painful, and immediately, his eyes were gradually covered with frost.

It was already night when she returned to the Xijing Hou Mansion, and after Li Yueli experienced high-altitude gliding, she was even more excited and couldn't sleep all night, and began to look forward to the program behind Ye Gucheng.

It was very strange that Gao Zizhong's figure became more and more blurred in her mind, but it was Ye Gucheng's outline, which gradually became clear.

In the next month, Ye Gucheng and Li Yueli were almost inseparable from the mansion to play, because Ye Gucheng was a slave, and the people in the mansion didn't think much about it.

Before you know it, the annual slave competition begins.

The slaves of the Western Regions are almost lifelong, of course, there is a way to get rid of this fate, that is, to participate in the slave competition, the slave competition is basically no different from the fighting arena, the only friendly side is that as long as the opponent surrenders, you can not kill, of course, it also depends on the mood of the winning party, and it is a one-on-one fair competition elimination system, that is, there will be no serial battles in the fighting arena.

Of course, there are a lot of slaves in the entire western realm, and it is impossible for all slaves to sign up, so each province can only send one, and the one who can participate must be the strongest slave, the slave representative of the province.

Although the conditions are harsh, but the rewards are also very attractive, as long as you win the championship, you can fade the status of a slave and become a free body, once you become a free body, it means that the treatment is improved, you can enlist in the army, although it is impossible to become a general, but there is no problem with performing well as a small leader, you can imagine how big the temptation is.

Regarding Ye Gucheng's statement that he wanted to run for the slave competition, although Li Yueli was a little worried, it was not easy to refuse.

Due to the flood of slaves, the family members and even the stewards with positions in the palace have exclusive slaves, but it is only a matter of the number of slaves, so a total of more than 30 slaves in the Western Marquis Mansion signed up for the slave representative selection competition.

Of course, it is impossible for the Marquis of Xijing to come forward for this kind of trivial matter, and most of the family members are busy dressing up and having fun, so it falls on the housekeeper to come forward to host.

However, Li Yueli actually came to watch in person today, and although the housekeeper was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask.

The tryouts were held in an arena, with more than 30 slaves in place, and in consideration of fairness and casualties, the contestants were all one-on-one elimination, and the weapons were all wooden, and the rules were to knock the opponent out or knock them out of the stage to win.

With an order, the fight in the field officially began.

The combat effectiveness of the slave is extraordinary, and it is even more extraordinary to be able to become an exclusive slave, as soon as it opens, it is hot, even if it is a wooden weapon, it is also smashed to the flesh.

In just the round of 16 trials, the arena was smashed into a sea of blood, and everyone was screaming and fighting with all their might, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

Entering the top 8, Ye Gucheng swept his opponent off the stage with a blow from the shoulder injury.

Seeing Ye Gucheng injured and stepping down, Li Yueli's eyes flashed with a trace of worry, but her identity did not allow condolences, she pretended to look at the sky, and said slowly: "Manager Zhang, I think it's getting late today, and the next event will be held tomorrow." ”

The chief steward glanced at the sky above the scorching sun with a strange expression, and said respectfully, "Yes, eldest miss." ”

Inside the wings.

Li Yueli glared at Ye Gucheng angrily, and said coldly: "Don't lie down yet?"

Ye Gucheng smiled bitterly twice, and said slowly: "Miss, I'm thick-skinned, I'm really fine." ”

"So a thick stick smashed on the shoulder, and said it's okay? You just went to participate in the campaign, and you didn't go to fight hard, don't you know how to hide?" Li Yueli became more and more angry the more she spoke, and she almost jumped up and pointed at the other party's nose and scolded.

。。。。。。

How can women be unreasonable! Is competition a joke?

Ye Gucheng saw Li Yueli's eyes wide open, and he was very knowledgeable and silent, and lay directly on the ground.

Li Yueli originally wanted Ye Gucheng to lie on the boudoir, but when she saw the other party's move, she remembered that her idea was inappropriate, but she didn't say anything, and walked over with the medicine and wine.

"If you don't take off your shirt, how can I serve you wine. ”

Hearing this, Ye Gucheng took off his shirt a little unnaturally, he knew that the customs of the Western Regions were weird, and it was very common for women to see men bare their upper bodies, but men were not allowed to lie in women's boudoirs, otherwise, he would prefer to lie on the bed and take medicine.

Li Yueli had long known that Ye Gucheng was covered in injuries, however, when she saw that her entire back was covered with crisscrossing scars, her heart still hurt, she poured the medicinal wine into her palm, and gently rubbed her red shoulders.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt!"

"I mean, you've been hurt so much, does it hurt?"

Hurt!

It's far less distressing than being distressed!

"Why don't you speak?" Li Yueli couldn't help but be curious when she saw Ye Gucheng fall silent.

"It's nothing, it doesn't hurt for a long time!" Ye Gucheng suddenly lost interest in chatting.

Following.

The top 8 of the slave representative selection competition started again, and for a while, there was another muffled sound, and knives and sticks flew sideways, which only made Li Yueli feel frightened.

When Ye Gucheng entered the finals, he had been injured many times.

Although Li Yueli didn't say anything from beginning to end, her pretty face was full of frost.

The manager secretly glanced at the side from time to time, so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath, he hated the slave who fought with Ye Gucheng, he didn't have any eyesight, didn't he know that Ye Gucheng was the exclusive slave of the eldest lady, so he would die?

As the fighting entered the white heat, the two people in the arena were also crazy, and after each other's weapons were broken, they chose to fight directly hand-to-hand.

At this moment, the manager's tears were about to flow, and he felt that the cold around him was getting stronger and stronger, and he wanted to flee immediately.

Isn't it just an exclusive slave!

Click!

Mr. Zhang listened to the cracking sound of wood products coming from the side, his eyelids jumped, and his whole body became extremely stiff.

Finally, Ye Gucheng struck hard and successfully beat the opponent down.

"Great!" Manager Zhang jumped up, ignoring the slave who was struggling to get up, he quickly stepped onto the stage, kicked the slave who had just gotten up off the stage, raised Ye Gucheng's hand and roared with joy: "The final representative of the slave selection competition, Ye Gucheng." ”

Li Yueli stared at Ye Gucheng coldly for a few moments, didn't say a word, shook her head and left.

Isn't that a win?

Why is the eldest lady still unhappy?

The manager looked at the departing back in confusion.
