"Where is the master that Gongzi said now? I wonder if I can ask him to stop tomorrow's Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony?" Huo Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Qing Ci smiled faintly, "Huo Gongzi doesn't have to worry, that master has naturally come to Puqiu City, I think tomorrow's Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony will be very exciting." ”

"Hmph, you guy looks like a gentleman, and you're not very old, how much of the world have you seen? Who knows how powerful that master you are talking about. Huo Shudie somehow, when she saw Qing Ci Na Swen's face with a faint smile, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

It is about that most of the men she has come into contact with since she was a child are martial arts practitioners, and in her opinion, men should be as powerful and masculine as her father and brother, rather than like Qing Ci in front of her, who looks as warm as jade that does not touch the fireworks in the world.

"Fluttershy, don't be rude!" Huo Zhiyuan hurriedly glared at his little sister when he heard this, this little girl was afraid that she was rejected by the shopkeeper at the door today, and she was in a bad mood, and now she felt uncomfortable with everyone.

"It's okay, it's normal for Miss Huo San to have such suspicions, but it's always good to have hope, isn't it?" Qing Ci didn't care about this little girl's rude attitude at all, and there was still a warm smile on her face.

Seeing Qing Ci's attitude that was neither salty nor light, Huo Shudie felt as if he had hit the cotton with a heavy punch, and immediately pouted in dissatisfaction, and muttered in a low voice: "Hey, the dignified seven-foot man is dressed up so delicately, and he actually wears the same color clothes as his daughter's family, don't be ashamed!"

She thought that she had spoken this very quietly, and at most only someone like her brother, who had practiced martial arts since childhood and had excellent ears, could hear what she said from such a distance.

But what she didn't know was that the two men and women in front of her were not mortals, and the sentence she had just muttered fell into the ears of the three of them.

Painting Allure covered his mouth and coughed lightly twice, so as not to laugh too abruptly; Cang Wunian secretly shook his head, feeling that this little girl was a little unreasonable; Qing Ci almost squirted out of his mouth with a mouthful of wine, secretly smacking his tongue This little girl's mind is really very strange, isn't it just wearing a blue robe and a white fox fur? God knows that she will also wear such a color of clothes today, they didn't know each other before, so they can blame him?

At this time, there was a commotion on the stage in the distance, and tonight's good show began.

I have to say that the foundation of this Tianxi Village is indeed deep, and even the layout of the stage looks exquisite. At this time, a group of scantily clad women on the stage were twisting the waist of the water snake and dancing in a curling manner.

Qing Ci turned his head to look at the women in the stands, obviously not interested, and turned his head to pour himself a drink.

"Hey, surnamed Long, is your Qinglong Castle fun?" Huo Shudie, as a woman, naturally had no interest in the Yingge Yan Dance of those demonic women on the stage, and when she saw Qing Ci's indifferent appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little curious about this handsome young man.

"Qinglong Fort is a place to build weapons, and it is not a tourist place with pleasant scenery, what can be fun?" Qing Ci said lightly.

"As long as you can't carry it on your shoulders and can't lift it in your hands, will you build weapons?" Huo Shudie pouted and said.

Qing Ci smiled faintly, "If you want to eat delicious food, you don't have to farm and raise pigs by yourself." If I can't build weapons, I can't inherit the family business?"

"You ......" Huo Shudie was dumbfounded. This guy looks like a jade-faced boy and a pretty man, and he can really choke people to death when he crowds them.

Huo Zhiyuan looked at his sister-in-law on the side, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, although this little girl is domineering and rude on weekdays, she will not be difficult with others everywhere. This dragon pity boy looks polite and polite, why does this girl seem to look at him horizontally and vertically?

Isn't it...... This little girl is actually enlightened?

Thinking of this, Huo Zhiyuan's heart couldn't help jumping, and he hugged his fists at Qing Ci and asked, "Young Master Long, please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, does Young Master have a family?"

"How can you come to your family?" replied Qing Ci. Of course, he knew that he was now Long Lian.

"Does that boy have a favorite woman?" Huo Zhiyuan asked again.

"Nope. Qing Ci secretly rolled his eyes, and had some bad premonitions in his heart.

Huo Zhiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything further. After all, today is the first time they have met, and it would be too abrupt to talk about marriage now.

"Long Gongzi is a talent, he talks extraordinary, and he is the young castle master of Qinglong Castle, so there must be many women who secretly promise Gongzi. I don't know whose girl has such a blessing to get the blue eyes of the dragon boy. Huo Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Qing Ci raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Huo Gongzi is polite, in fact, we all know in our hearts that these are just false names." In this Changyue country, which emphasizes literature and light on military force, you and I are really a little sympathetic. ”

Qing Ci's words have been obvious, their status sounds quite noble, but in this kind of place where dignitaries and nobles gather, it is love to give them three points of thin noodles, and it is their duty to give them white eyes.

It's no wonder that Changyue has been unable to intersect with the outside world for hundreds of years, and the imperial army's army is only used to suppress its own mobs or rebellious ministers and thieves who plot against the outside world.

This Qinglong Fort is better, at least it depends on craftsmanship to eat, in this Changyue country, if you want to create the best and most desirable weapons is none other than Qinglong Fort, those rich sons and brothers have nothing to do when they are full, and when the dance and ink can no longer arouse their interest, they begin to change their tricks to have fun, showing their heroism, and from time to time hand a few posts out to invite some people who match their status to ride horses and shoot arrows.

For weapons, even if they don't know anything, they will pretend to know very well, even if they use them as decorations, the eighteen classes of weapons must be complete, and they have to be renovated every once in a while, so as not to be said by others that their eyes are not in the flow.

Therefore, no matter how bad Qinglong Fort is, there is still a time for them to beg.

But the family of this auxiliary general is different. The Huo family has been a military general for generations since the founding of the Changyue Kingdom, and the ancestor of the Huo family was even named "Zhenguo Gong" by the founding monarch Qin at that time, and allowed the descendants of the Huo family to inherit this title. However, if there is no meritorious service for three consecutive generations, it needs to be demoted before it can be hereditary, until it is demoted to the rank of "auxiliary general".

In the past few hundred years, because of the increasingly hot and hot volcanoes of the Eight Fevers, the territory of Changyue Country has no more inch, there is no external trouble, only occasional internal worries, and the merits of the Zhenguo family are impossible to talk about, and finally reduced to the "auxiliary general".

If it weren't for the fact that the new monarch had the ambition to expand the territory and paid some attention to the Huo family, just because Huo Zhong was now under house arrest in the palace, the Huo family brothers and sisters would not want to set foot in this Tianxi Village tonight.

"Long Gongzi is right, if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have such a sense of familiarity with Gongzi at first sight. It's just that...... If it is for the military generals to be able to be useful in the Changyue country, it is necessary to start the precedent of sacrificing human lives to the sky, but I would rather be an unworthy descendant and let this honor end. After a long time, Huo Zhiyuan said lightly.

His voice was soft and soft, as if he were speaking to himself, but he had a firmness that could not be questioned by others.

"Changyue has a pillar of the country like Huo Gongzi, which is a blessing for the people. Qing Ci hooked the corners of his mouth and exclaimed.

Such gossip was common for most of the hour, and the singing and dancing on the stage finally ended, at this time a middle-aged man came to the stage, the man wore a black melon skin hat, a dark green dress, embroidered with gold thread and moire, and wore a small short jacket on the upper body, and his figure was slightly fat, it seemed that this man was the shopkeeper of Tianxi Village.

"You have been waiting for a long time, and you will not say anything about the superfluous words, tonight's gambling game must be known to everyone, please bet on the results of your bets on a piece of paper, and attach the amount of bets. Later, someone will go to your table to collect your bets. The outcome of the win or loss will be known tomorrow. The shopkeeper's loud voice resounded in the theater building.

The language is neither humble nor arrogant, and the content is extremely short and concise, presumably most of the people who come here are regular customers, and the shopkeeper has obviously been accustomed to it.

Just after the shopkeeper's announcement bet began, more than a dozen pairs of women dressed as maids and shop men rushed in from the door of the theater.

Among them, the maids are holding trays with pen, ink and rice paper on the plates, while the shopkeepers are holding a cash box and a stack of envelopes in their hands.

Seeing a man and a woman walking towards Qing Ci's table, Huo Zhiyuan whispered to Qing Ci and asked, "Childe, do you plan to bet?"

Qing Ci gently stroked the white jade folding fan in his hand, and a faint smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth: "The money sent to the door, don't be in vain." ”

After saying that, he beckoned to the oncoming woman, and when the woman came and respectfully presented the tray to him, he picked up the brush and rice paper on the plate, and wrote down the word "no" with a big stroke of the pen.

The maid and the guy on the side couldn't help but shake their bodies when they saw this word, and almost dropped the thing they were holding in their hands to the ground.

Qing Ci didn't care at all, gently dried the ink on the paper, took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve, and sealed them directly into an envelope along with the word "no".

Then he wrote five small words on the surface of the envelope, "Qinglong Fort Longlian", and then he was satisfied and stuffed the envelope into the cash box in the man's hand.

After the guy and the maid left, Huo Shudie's eyes widened and said, "Hey, surnamed Long, are you crazy? ”

"Money is something outside the body, and Long doesn't think that he will definitely lose. Qing Ci said with a meaningful smile.
