Rick pressed his hand on the place where the Heart Moon Diamond pendant was hanging, and said, "Then I'll keep it for you for the time being, now let's go out first!" I have a matter to discuss with you. ”
Peach Blossom nodded, and obediently walked out of the side hall with Rick. Then go all the way to the front yard - Rick has been here before. He turned around, pointed to the rows of houses behind him, and asked Taohuahong, "This is your home, don't you want to come back?" ”
"Why don't you want to?" Leng Ying replied on behalf of Taohuahong on the side, "But now that it's broken like this, how can you live in people?" Peach Blossom also shook her head gloomily and said, "The Tao family no longer exists, and this abandoned mansion no longer belongs to me." ”
"What does that mean?" Rick asked in surprise.
Peach Blossom said: "Because I haven't disclosed my identity for so many years, the government thinks that the Tao family has no successor, and has taken it back to public property." ”
"I see. Never mind. Rick said, "Now that I have a good relationship with His Majesty, it's not easy to get back what originally belonged to you?!" ”
"It doesn't have to be that much trouble." Peach Blossom said hurriedly, "Actually, you just need to go to the Ministry of Industry to verify." ”
"In that case, why don't you want to take back this mansion?"
"In the past, it was to avoid the enemy, so I had to do it. Now it doesn't mean anything to me anymore. ”
"You're wrong." Rick immediately corrected, "Do you think killing those two guys is avenging your family?" Miss by a mile. Because the head of the Tianluo Sect is the real murderer. I will find a way to reclaim this mansion for you, and I will also make extensive repairs to let the people of the Tianluo Sect know. The descendants of the Tao family are still alive. Let them come to death one by one. ”
"But this way. Isn't Peach Girl dangerous? Leng Ying reminded.
"I'm not going to let you get in the way." Rick smiled at Peach Blossom and said, "I'll have another person pretend to be you, and as long as you have a seal and paperwork to prove your identity, you can take back the house." However, you still have to live in the Duke's Palace, and I don't want you to be in danger. Rick's tone of voice was almost overbearing, but Peach Blossom didn't object, especially when she heard Rick's last words. His face turned red for no reason, like a peach blossom in March.
Recovering the peach family's abandoned mansion is not a one-day thing, and Rick doesn't plan to do it before going to Dakai Town, so he called the experienced housekeeper Fisherwoman, and after asking some information about this, he already has an idea in his heart, and when he returns from Dakai, he is ready to carry out this matter.
This trip to Dakai not only bears the king's order, but also has a little taste of marching and fighting. So he doesn't plan to bring many people around. After thinking about it, he only decided to bring Yulu and Ao Ling'er. However, this decision was unanimously opposed by Chrissy, Herot, Alva and others. Because they felt that Rick had too few guards, according to their opinion, it was better to bring a dozen Nymph guards. However, Rick felt that if he was always under the protection of the Nymphs, he would become dependent, and it would be difficult for him to make progress. He shared the idea with Chrissy and the others. The women have always been led by Chrissy, and she thinks about it for a while, and she thinks that Rick's idea is very right. In the end, after discussion, it was decided to let Rick only bring Leng Ying and Caifeng, so that Rick would have four guards by his side. Although the number is small, the strength should not be underestimated. In addition, among the guards in the house, Rick also chose to bring Xu Zhenzhen and Lu Guangtou. Rick brought these two people with a purpose, first of all, since he went to the Mirror Flower Pavilion, Rick has always been full of doubts about Xu Zhenzhen, so he plans to find out her bottom along the way; As for Lu Guangtou, he is Rick's most loyal follower and younger brother. Chrissy once told Rick that Lu Guangtou was a piece of gold and jade, and he needed a lot of experience to grow rapidly, so Rick also brought him with him.
After deciding on the candidate, Rick came to the martial arts training ground to watch the Tianxiang team and the Tianfeng team practice "Wooden Stake Kung Fu", and the result made Rick very satisfied. So, he began to think about how to improve this "muddy water stake cultivation Dafa" in order to carry it forward.
The Tianxiang team and the Tianfeng team, under the leadership of Zi Su Ye and Lu Yuyi respectively, easily completed the task of running two laps on the wooden stake in only twenty minutes. When they walked down the stake, although their faces were flushed and there was some muddy water on their bodies, it was undeniable that their progress could already be described as "amazing".
"You've officially taught them kung fu?" Rick asked "Training Overseer" Long Lan.
Long Lan said with a smile: "They are making rapid progress, so I discussed it with Sister Qing and decided to teach them kung fu in advance, and at present, only one set of true qi cultivation methods has been taught, called 'Mingyu True Qi', this set of true qi cultivation methods is taught by Sister Qing, and it has a wide range of adaptation, which is suitable for almost any physique person to cultivate, thus saving the trouble of measuring their physique attributes." In addition, Ling'er said that those special riding spears engraved with wind and thunder marks can be reworked to make them more powerful. So, I want to teach them a set of 'snow gun' marksmanship today. When the spears were finished, they were allowed to use them as weapons. ”
"That's very good." Rick laughed, "I left those riding guns for them." These special riding spears were only four feet long, which was not too heavy, and they were perfectly suited to use such weapons. ”
Long Lan nodded, and then asked with a somewhat gloomy gaze: "Childe, you are going to Dakai tomorrow?" ”
"yes. However, you don't have to worry, what I promised you will be done, and when I come back from Dakai, no matter what, I will go to the Temple of the God of War to bring Miss Long to meet you. However, what I am most afraid of is that if I rush forward, I may cause her trouble. ”
"I thought so too, so I tried to sneak away several times, but I couldn't make up my mind."
"So be it!" Rick laughed, "When I get back from Dakai, I'll ask the Egret to send a few people to secretly visit the Temple of the God of War so that it won't be self-defeating." ”
Long Lan's eyes lit up and said, "This is the best." ”
Rick and Long Lan were talking on the side, but the girls who had finished practicing did not immediately go back to freshen up, but were chattering around something, not knowing what they were discussing.
Rick ended the conversation with Long Lan, took this qiē in his eyes, couldn't help but walk over and take a look, and then asked in surprise, "Where did the black cat come from?" ”
The little girls laughed when they said this, and even pointed to the "black cat" so much that they even shed tears. Long Lan, who came with Rick, also smiled, and she explained to Rick, "Childe, have you forgotten? This is the dark guardian beast that Gyokuro brought back from the Fire Cloud Desert, and look at the flame mark on its head. ”
Rick took a closer look, and sure enough, it was right. So I couldn't help but ask, "What is it doing here?" ”
Long Lan said with a smile: "Yulu didn't have time to take care of it, so she let it run around in the mansion, and now, the entire Duke's Mansion is the most idle." ”
"I see. It's not good, since he has so little to contribute, he has to find something to do for him. Rick laughed. The Dark Guardian Beast raised its head and looked at Rick with disdain, as if to say: It's too easy for Lao Tzu to do it.
"It won't make it easy for you." Rick seemed sensitive to the animal's expression, and leaned closer to the Dark Guardian Beast and said, "I'll ask Gyokuro to take you with you, and we'll go to Dakai together - how about you turn back to your original appearance and pull the cart?" The Dark Guardian Beast seemed to understand Rick's words and stood up "angrily", but apparently it didn't dare to "get angry" at Rick, because the other party was the master of its master, and he couldn't offend him, so he could only turn his head "angrily" and leave!
The girls were teasing him very happily, and when he left, the girls were so anxious that they chased after him, shouting as they chased back: "Black ball, don't run!" Don't run! Black balls. ”
"It's called Blackball? The name--" Rick laughed and high-fived, "it's a wonderful name." ”
"That's what I took it." Lu Yuyi didn't chase after the "black ball", so he immediately stood up and said.
Rick smiled, "I gave him such a beautiful name for you, this time I will go to Dakai, and I will definitely bring you a good gift." ”
"I don't want a gift, I want a phantom beast. Can Brother Rick buy me one? Lu Yuyi's eyes flashed brightly, and he asked innocently.
"Absolutely." Rick agreed, but then he asked curiously, "Why do you want to raise phantom beasts?" That's a hassle. ”
Lu Yuyi smiled and said, "Because I want to be like Sister Xu, find a phantom beast that is both beautiful and can fly as a companion." ”
"You're going to learn from her? That kind of phantom beast is hard to find. Rick said, but when he saw Lu Yuyi's face immediately gloomy, he couldn't help but pat his chest and said, "However, Brother Rick will definitely buy one for you." As soon as this sentence fell, there were suddenly countless "bird calls" around me: "I also want a phantom beast--I also want a phantom beast like a little lazy worm--"
The "bird calls" were made by the girls who had gone and returned, and Rick's first feeling was not surprise, but the feeling that he had fallen into someone else's trap: they were premeditated.
Rick glanced back at Long Lan and found a hint of cunning in her eyes, and he knew that she was also involved in the conspiracy. So under the siege of thirty or forty little girls, Rick surrendered "painfully": "Say no more, everyone has it." ”
This proclamation of surrender was finalized to the cheers of the girls. Rick finally realizes that you can calculate your enemies to the fullest, but you are also destined to be calculated by those around you - especially women! However, a warm smile crossed the corner of Rick's lips: it is happy to be calculated by them!! (To be continued......)
