XIV. Qiang State
Half-knowing: Immortals are also the relics of the Taoist monks, born to be able to see through the lives of mortals, but only can not see through their own lives, because the monks are few, the relics are even more difficult, so there are only a handful of half-knowledge in the world.
(1) Go to Ruoqiang
Near Yushan, looking at Ke Yu who was leaving, Chu Jiu put down the clenched fist in his hand fiercely, looking at the jade ring that turned in the turquoise color of Yushan, she crossed her hands on her waist and "cut".
"It's been a long time, isn't it just to let Sister Ben go to clean up the mess? In the end, you immortals have to lose to your own compassionate heart, and looking forward to the future is not as happy as mortals. ”
Tan Yingkong watched her walk forward with her waist crossed and complained all the way, so he had to shake his head and follow, saying, "Okay, don't you just can't see others bullying the people around you?" That is certain, you have also learned a lesson in the East China Sea, it is time to be angry, right? ”
"Hey, Kongkong, why do I want to punch you the more I look at you?"
Chu Jiu swung his fist as he spoke, and when she was angry in the East China Sea, she didn't have time to beat up Ao Lie, a stupid dragon who didn't protect Ke Yu, if he dared to treat her like this, then taste her fist first.
"Ah Jiu, your look shouldn't be to take precautions, right?" Tan Yingkong pulled her fist and gently pushed her fingers on her forehead, "You only have a script all day, and I don't expect you to understand." ”
What do you know? Why did she not know the person in front of her even more after regaining a little memory? On the contrary, he can always see through what she thinks.
"Kongkong, what do you mean by being so anxious to let this sister recover her memory?"
He finally reminded her of herself by explicit hints along the way, but she was keen on other people's gossip, but instead threw him aside, such a cold treatment is comparable to being imprisoned in a human prison, so he can only take action.
"Naturally, it's ......" Tan Yingkong stepped forward and approached, and circled Chu Jiu into his arms with both hands, "In order to firmly encircle Ah Jiu, you little bird is too active, and I can only make this decision." ”
Now he is a little more gentle than Yushanshi, although the domineering in his bones is still undoubtedly revealed, but at this moment, it is more difficult for her to take her eyes off his blue pupils than Yushanshi.
"Okay"
Chu Jiu gently pushed him away, and said with a dodging gaze; "We still have to make peace with Sister Shuzhen, and then go to Ruoqiang to find the reincarnated shakuhachi."
So, the four of them went to the border between the Central Plains and the Qiang Kingdom, Ruoqiang. Even on a spring day, it's unusually dry, and if it weren't for the grass and trees and the yellow stone gates, you would have been on the wrong path.
Tan Yingkong looked at Shuzhen and said, "Let's hide the color of our eyes first, so that we can act conveniently." ”
Shuzhen nodded and disappeared his pupils, and Tan Yingkong's eyes flashed blue and turned black. Chu Jiu's nose smelled an extremely strong smell of blood from a distance, and it had not dissipated at this moment, it should have experienced a war not long ago, she glanced at them, walked forward, glanced at Ruoqiang written on her head, and said: "This Ruoqiang is the edge of the two countries, if the army of the Central Plains breaks through Ruoqiang, it can directly enter the city of Qiang Wangcheng." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the closed city gate opened, and several soldiers surrounded the four of them with their spears, Chu Jiu seemed to have expected it, looked back at Dongfang Lili who was about to make a move, and said: "Now that the army is in chaos, instead of risking our lives in this big Ruoqiang City, it is better to obediently cooperate with these brothers, at least there is a sip of water to drink in this cell, right?" ”
"You ......"
Shuzhen grabbed Dongfang Lili's hand, and his eyes signaled that he didn't need to say much, so he withdrew the spell in his hand, but everything that can be solved with spells is easy to say, but it has to be so troublesome, it seems that this time the matter should be extremely tricky.
The soldiers who took the lead were very satisfied with their reaction, and ordered their subordinates to take them into the city, and there were no people walking around the streets along the way, and a few people who went out to sell grain watched the soldiers of the Central Plains pressing a few people to come, and they all walked away quickly, avoiding these people they could not afford to provoke.
The soldiers took them to the prison, and when they entered the prison, they led them down three flights of stairs, and then came to a passage with iron walls on all sides, and the soldiers who took the lead stepped forward and took the key to open the door, and saw two iron cells on the left and right sides of the inside, with iron walls and iron walls. They were separated from each other and locked in, and the door was locked and they left.
"Ah Jiu, this is your plan?" Dongfang Lili, who was on the other side, grabbed the cell door in front of him and glanced at the cell that had been built with great painstaking efforts, "Where even rats don't bother to come, you can still say that this place is good with a clear conscience?" ”
Dongfang Lili flicked the iron pillar in front of him as he spoke, and the "jingle" sound was very pleasant, and Chu Jiu scratched the other party's eyes, "Didn't you see that this place just ended a war?" At this time, there must be people outside in a panic, if you don't think that your magic cultivation is profound, just go out invisibly, and then go all the way to the wall to investigate, remember to set a taboo circle at night to protect yourself from being caught as a thief. ”
"Hey, ...... you" Dongfang Li was so angry that he pointed to the other side, stretched his hand out of the cage and glared, "Do you believe it or not, I'm going out and smashing this place to a pulp?" ”
"It's okay" Chu Jiu pretended to think for a while, tilted his head and said, "This is just the right way to bring their general here." ”
Tan Yingkong came over and took Dongfang Lili's hand, and said, "Ah Jiu, this is waiting for General Zhu to come to bail that day, so don't mess with it." ”
"Bail? Hahaha, if you have an acquaintance, you will say it early, why bother hiding it like this, right? ”
The cinnabar mole at the corner of Chu Jiu's mouth was raised, and her hands were crossed on her waist and a look was killed, Dongfang Lili immediately closed her mouth obediently, and she withdrew her eyes.
Sure enough, Zhu Yi really came to release them in person, reprimanded his lieutenant generals, and then took them out of the cage, and said that he would treat them well and wash them up. Chu Jiu didn't say anything polite to him, he just said that he wanted to go to the best restaurant here for a full stomach, so Zhu Yi immediately sent someone to pull the carriage, and at this time, he was driving forward as a carriage and stopped in front of the half-house tavern.
Dongfang Lili heard that this meal was vegetarian, shook his head and said that there is no food without wine, and after getting out of the carriage, he hurriedly ran to the wine shop on the other side, Zhu Yi was afraid that he would be caught by being mistaken for Xu Ning's accomplice, so he sent a subordinate to accompany Dongfang Lili.
The four people who entered the semi-tavern and sat down saw a teenage boy come to greet tea, and then asked, "What do the guests want to eat?" But what's the taboo? ”
Zhu Yi glanced at the little boy next to him, and said "vegetarian food is fine" and he retreated, and from time to time there were also a few richly dressed men sitting down, ordering food and starting to chat.
"I heard that this Qiang prince not only colluded with the thief to steal the seal of the Qiang king of our Qiang country, but also murdered his father, which made the gang in the Central Plains take advantage of the situation and kill the Qiang King City in one fell swoop."
"Brother, you have to pay attention to what you say, our Qiang State is a vassal state of the Central Plains, and this time the Central Plains army did not slaughter the people of our Ruoqiang City, but raised troops to quell the civil strife for our Qiang State."
"Speaking of this thief Xi, he is really blind, he would steal the seal of the king of Qiang for such an unfaithful and unrighteous person, it is really vain for the people of my Qiang country."
"Yes, fortunately, the emperor of the Central Plains is open-minded and has such a big heart, so we can chat here safely and soundly, but I heard that this princess is not so lucky."
"Isn't it, it was originally meant to be married to the prince of Qiang, but it's a pity ......"
The four people at the opposite table were chatting happily, and suddenly the bamboo tube in the middle of the table was directly inserted by a flying chopstick with a "bang", and when the bamboo tube was split in half, the chopsticks just flew past the person who had just spoken, and was directly inserted into the wooden pillar on the side.
The four of them looked at Zhu Yi in a daze, and when they saw the Central Plains official knife placed next to his chair, they didn't even dare to make a sound.
However, Chu Jiu held his chin and said leisurely, "Tavern place, don't talk about state affairs." Then he looked at Zhu Yi with interest, such an obvious anger, this Zhu Yi clearly fell in love with the princess of the Central Plains in their mouths. It's just that what is the situation with Tan Yingkong's enlarged face.
"Empty, don't stand in the middle of the table, it's time to serve."
Chu Jiu said that he pushed the pond shadow in the middle of the table, took the chopsticks, and the little boy who came to pour tea and water smiled softly, and said, "It's time to serve." ”
Then, Chu Jiu watched the dish go up to the table next door, and the little boy saw Chu Jiu staring at this side, and came with the kettle from the next table and said: "Sister Carp said, you came to our Banju Tavern to order vegetarian food, and you must be people who want great merit, so your dishes need to be carefully prepared to show your sincerity, and I hope you will wait for a while." ”
Shuzhen had an indifferent look on his face, just looking at the Tan Yingkong of Chu Jiu and Zhu Yi who was worried on the side, he naturally had no opinions to express, but Chu Jiu immediately held the chopsticks in his hand when he heard this, his eyes rolled slightly, and said: "Thank you chef for this, it's worth waiting." ”
As Chu Jiu finished speaking, the four people at the table over there squirted out the food in their mouths at the same time, and hurriedly closed the water while fanning their mouths with their hands, and when they were about to pour water, they found that they had just been taken by Xiao Er to add water.
After shouting for a long time, I didn't see Xiao Er come with water, and when I saw that Zhu Yi next door couldn't afford to provoke him, I had to go out to find water to drink, and I saw Chu Jiu laughing, and the book on the side glanced at Chu Jiu and then looked at the look of Tan Yingkong, and the hand in his sleeve rubbed his clothes, but his face was calm.
In this way, their dishes finally came up, and the chopsticks in Chu Jiu's hand quickly picked up a mushroom ball and put it in his mouth, his face full of satisfaction. So he picked up the second one, and just as he was about to enter, he was shocked by a sloppy monk who suddenly rushed in and fell to the ground.
As soon as the monk saw the balls rolling over, his eyes lit up and he picked it up and ate it, and then stared at the dishes on their table with an extremely coveted smile, and then, regardless of whether others agreed or not, he quickly came up and took the chopsticks, only to see the chopsticks quickly back and forth in front of them several times, and a table of vegetarian food was swept away by him.
"Oh, you dare to eat the overlord meal in front of my sister, you are tired of being crooked."
Chu Jiu slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table, and then chased him out quickly, leaving only one sentence "Dare to run?" Is it really good to be a vegetarian when my sister is a vegetarian? ”
In this way, Chu Jiu chased the old monk all the way to the door of a dilapidated temple, this temple was extremely desolate and did not even have a plaque, she smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said: "This time it is finally a little interesting, this monk is not simple." ”
