165 Old and know the destiny of heaven

For people like Locke, who talks a lot, is curious and knows himself, Chen Xiansong has no temper. It's too impersonal to drive away, and staying is purely uncomfortable, rather than consuming, it is better to satisfy the other party. Chen Xiansong took a sip of fruit wine, moistened his throat, and then roughly explained what happened.

Although the fruit wine provided by this inn was cheap, it tasted good, and Locke was used to drinking good wine, so he could barely accept it. After listening to this, he thought deeply, and after a while he said, "That's not right...... In my experience, there's something weird about it. ”

Chen Xiansong is not stupid, he just lacked the experience of intrigues and tricks before, and naturally discovered a lot of inside information in this matter, but everything needs intelligence to deliberate on the next step, and now the situation of his master and apprentice association is completely black, and he doesn't know anything at all.

It was clear that Artemis was driving them away, so they simply went as they pleased, went back to their door, closed the door, and were safe and sound.

When Locke heard Chen Xiansong say this, he thought it was true, and he also felt that his reminder seemed to be too much. The other party is a soul thinker, how can he not be smarter than himself. He drank two more glasses of fruit wine before saying, "It seems that the royal city is turbulent, and the little nobles in my place will not go there to participate, but will go and sell the goods now, and lose some money." When we go back, let's go together, and we will have a good answer on the way, sir, don't leave me alone this time. ”

Chen Xiansong shrugged: "Then you should hurry up, the departure time is determined by my teacher, and I can't help it." ”

"Then I'll go and prepare now." Locke dropped his glass and left.

With nothing else to do, Chen Xiansong continued to start forging equipment, and now he was only one boot left, as long as he completed this step. Odin's sacred garment is complete. Not long after, the little guy came and knocked on the door and interrupted Chen Xiansong's work.

"Teacher, let's go shopping."

Chen Xiansong was sitting on the floor when the exorcism stone was cast, so now the little guy was lying on his back.

Frances has a special ability to weigh so little that she doesn't seem to have much weight in her back when hanging from his back. Since his concentration was interrupted, Chen Xiansong also stopped, the last time he came to Emperor Fall City, he really didn't take Bai Min to walk around the streets.

Bai Min is a cyborg. It stands to reason that I don't like shopping. However, in the book "The Necessary Self-cultivation of Natural Persons and the View of the World", it is said that a woman, as long as she is a woman, no matter whether she is a natural person, a new human being. Or cyborgs, they all like to go shopping. Even if there are occasional people who don't like shopping. As long as their lover takes her, they will be happy.

So Chen Xiansong decided to take Xiao Min shopping, and the little guy was picked up by the way.

As soon as the three of them came out of the door, they met Udil, who asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"We're going shopping." The little guy replied first, looking very happy.

"Ice. You go back first, and then go shopping later. Udir seems to have more gray hair, and he is not as energetic as he was a few days ago: "I have something to talk to Xiao Song about." ”

"Oh......" the little one hung his head in disappointment and walked away.

In Udir's room, he closed the window. He also asked his housekeeper to guard the door, then sat down and said slowly: "Child, I went to the royal city, but I didn't get anything, and I spent my work in vain, you won't blame me." ”

"Nothing." Chen Xiansong looked indifferent: "It's just a trip, but there are more emergencies on the way." ”

The old man's parents sighed, his eyes were blank, and his old age became more and more obvious, and the trip to Wangcheng seemed to have dealt a big blow to him.

"It wasn't until I was twenty years old that I was discovered by my own teacher and became a soul thinker." "As I got older, I was slow to learn," Udir recalled, and it took me three years to become fluent in reading books, and years to break down knowledge, so that in my early thirties I was barely an introductory soul thinker." However, until I have lived until now, I have not made a single real reconstruction of knowledge, not a single one. I've been in Limestone for more than 20 years, and my only contribution to the town has been to test how much ash to sprinkle per acre of field to make the crops grow better without damaging the roots. ”

Udil's words were full of helplessness and desolation: "I have done nothing in my life, and the only thing I am proud of is ......" At this point, his cloudy eyes lit up: "I found you, you are my most talented child, clean and kind, not to mention the waterwheel, not to mention the out-of-season vegetables, just to say that the fertilizer you recently got out of the pit easily exceeded my efforts for more than twenty years, and the grass ash is a joke in front of it." ”

"I've always regarded the association as my ultimate destination." Udir coughed: "But recently, I feel more and more that the guild's way of doing things is a little strange, and this time I came to Wangcheng to prove my conjecture." ”

"There are factions in the association, and there is a lot of conflict." Udir coughed: "And it should still be a big thing that endangers the survival of the association, I thought about it for a day, and finally came up with something, the president deliberately forced us away, maybe she is for our good, or she is afraid that we will stand on her enemy when the time comes, but no matter what, the future survival of the association seems to be decided in this conflict." ”

"I'm just a peripheral person, I don't know anything, and I don't have any strength." Udir looked pained: "I don't even know that in addition to the president, there are people on that side competing with her for power in the association. But I know that no matter who wins or loses, the association will definitely be devastated by the vitality. ”

"The association may be torn apart, and it may be wiped out by other forces, perhaps the Sun Temple, perhaps the dragons, or the nobles uniting to cause trouble." Udil's eyes were full of sadness: "You may think that I am unfounded, but I just feel this way, and this feeling is getting deeper and deeper." Xiao Song, I have an idea now, when I return home, I will inherit my own territory to you, you help me manage it, recruit more people, try to protect myself, and then help me protect my relatives. I think the world may be very chaotic in the future. ”

Chen Xiansong frowned, Udil's words revealed a lot of things.

He was about to speak, but at this time, Udir suddenly coughed, Chen Xiansong went over and helped him gently beat his back, after a while, Udir seemed to be better, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go shopping with Siss, if it's too late, she will complain about me." Also, go to bed early at night, and we'll leave tomorrow morning at dawn. ”

Chen Xiansong nodded and left the room.

Not long after, Udir coughed again, this time much longer than before, and the coughing sound was a little louder, and he covered his mouth, trying not to disturb the people next door, and after a while, he stopped coughing, and took his hand off his mouth, which was covered with blue liquid.

With his other clean hand, he touched his lips...... Another blue stain. He looked at his hands for a long time, and after a long time, he said to himself as if groaning, "What is it that we souls ponder?" ”

Chen Xiansong swayed on the street with the little guy dancing with his eyebrows, women go shopping, generally to enjoy the fun of shopping, but the little guy is a foodie, she eats from the east to the west, and then eats to Nancheng District, at least nearly ten catties of things into her hands and mouth, and she is still unsatisfied.

Walking around, Chen Xiansong met an acquaintance, Locke.

This guy was directing his servants to unload the goods, and more than a dozen truckloads of goods were all pottery. He looked very happy, and was comparing his income on a piece of parchment, and seemed to have made a lot of money.

Now that he saw it, Chen Xiansong naturally went over to say hello. As soon as he patted him on the shoulder, the guy jumped up and turned around and scolded: "That bastard touched ...... Hey, why are you, Your Excellency Chen Xiansong, did you come here to be a guest here? ”

"As a nobleman, you can still do business." Chen Xiansong looked at the carts of pottery, a little surprised, it stands to reason that the nobles will not personally participate in the business action, they are high and look down on this business. And as the future city lord, Locke's status is not low, and he shouldn't touch these things.

"It's just casual play, I didn't expect to make a lot of money, it's quite interesting." Locke smiled proudly, he came out this time on the instructions of his father to find a way to get close to Chen Xiansong and get closer.

When people go to Wangcheng, he catches up and goes to Wangcheng, but he can't just say: Your Excellency, I chased you and patted you.

Aristocrats also want to be face-saving, so Locke used the guise of going to business, although it was not a good thing to say that business, but it could always cover his face. Chasing Chen Xiansong all the way, he always had to make a show, so he bought some goods casually, every time he thought of these pottery, he transported it here, but he just happened to hit the price of pottery and the price of pottery rose sharply, and these dozen cars of pottery poured out, at least making a net profit of more than two hundred gold coins.

Two hundred gold coins, a lot, and the net tax of his city lord's mansion for a month is only a little more than a thousand gold coins. In addition to food, drink, consumption, and wages, there are five or six hundred left over to be deposited in the family treasury.

In this way, Luo Xiansong felt more and more that Chen Xiansong was a messenger of luck and could be close to, originally he was ordered by his own Lao Tzu to pat Chen Xiansong's ass, and he still had some mustard in his heart, but now it has all disappeared.

"Let's go out here, and I don't know what's fun." Chen Xiansong looked around: "It would be nice if there was something special, Locke, have you ever been to this city before?" ”

The little guy grabbed a few skewers of barbecue, ate with a mouthful of oil, and chimed in: "There must be a place to eat." ”

"That's a good place unique to Emperor Fall City." Locke's eyes lit up, he was originally close to Chen Xiansong, and this was exactly what he wanted: "Ordinary civilians can't enter that place, but your identity is no problem, after I am a nobleman, I can also go in, go, and the door will open soon."
