Chapter 15: The Lord of Dog City
On the west wall of Qingtian City, the guards guarding the city in shifts wandered back and forth, monitoring the movements inside and outside the city, and a black shadow rushed from the city to cross the city wall without stopping, and quietly disappeared into the night, and the guards on the city wall did not seem to notice this abnormality at all.
It's just that not long after the black shadow disappeared, the captain of the guard in charge of the guard of the western city wall suddenly left the city wall and quickly headed towards the city lord's mansion.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Gou Cha, who was already preparing to sleep, changed his normal clothes and came to the backyard hall after receiving the report, and after listening to the report of the guard captain Luda, he frowned and asked: "Are you sure that it is the white-faced scholar who came with the Long family tonight?"
Luda bowed slightly, and said: "Absolutely, although that person's speed is extremely fast, the smell left behind cannot be removed, maybe he can't think of it, I am actually a high-level beast master." ”
"That's ......"
Gou Cha leaned back in the chair, his fingers lightly tapped the wooden armrest, his eyes were half squinted and he was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "Long Zongzheng should not be so impatient according to reason, he has endured it for seven years and has not made a move, and he will not be disproportionate because of my few words tonight, his trick is very vicious, whether it is successful or not, it is enough to make his nephew never turn over, and he really deserves to be the ruler of the first family in Qingtian City." ”
Ruda raised his head slightly and asked, "My lord, should we make a move?"
Gou Cha stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, sneered, and said, "What did you do? Kill that white-faced scholar? Or tear your face with Long Zongzheng? Let him know that I have actually been monitoring him?" This is not good for me at all, I have been waiting for him to show his flaws, but he has been making that indisputable appearance in front of me, not only in front of me in front of the entire Qingtian City, but also in front of the entire Qingtian City, the reputation is excellent, all the families in this Qingtian City are looking at the head of the Long family, there is no complete certainty, if I move him, it is equivalent to going against the entire Qingtian City. ”
Luda frowned, and asked with some puzzlement: "But if you don't make a move, won't that family in Xinling Town die horizontally and vertically?"
Gou Cha didn't speak, still gently knocked on the handrail, and after a long time, he asked: "About the young lady surnamed Xiao, still haven't you found anything?"
Ruda nodded and replied, "No." ”
"It's good if you don't have it. ”
Gou Cha opened his eyes and smiled inexplicably, and said lightly: "The more it can't be found, the more mysterious the background is, and in the entire Nanluo country, the secret camp can't find out the people with the background, and there is no other place except for the Xuanzong Palace." ”
Luda asked with some doubts: "If that young lady surnamed Xiao has the background of Xuanzong Palace, then there is no reason to watch her child die six years ago, and her subordinates really can't figure this out." ”
Gou Cha crossed his hands in front of his abdomen and said softly: "Since he is not dead, it is not a doubt, Long Zongzheng has endured it for seven years, why not worry about this? In fact, I also want to see what shocking things are hidden behind that young lady surnamed Xiao." ”
Ruda opened his mouth, then closed it again, he didn't seem to know what to say.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the white-faced scholar, don't do anything, if the white-faced scholar dies, report the whole process to me immediately, if the family dies, I have to think about it in the long run. ”
Gou Cha dropped a sentence a little tiredly, stood up and walked towards the inner hall, Ruda bowed slightly and quietly left the hall.
"I don't know if I don't want to be a corrupt official, it turns out that it is more difficult to be a corrupt official than to be a clean official, especially if you do it for ten years. ”
In the night, I only heard this city lord, who was hated by the entire Qingtian City and had the nickname of the dog city lord, sigh in a low voice from the bottom of his heart.
When the sky was just getting dark, Long Chen, who had only slept for four or five hours, got up from the bed, for him, the amount of sleep did not have much effect, as long as the Xuan Qi in his body was restored to a certain extent, it was enough to eliminate the fatigue of the brain.
The air in the early morning is naturally quite refreshing, Long Chen likes this slightly cool and slightly wet feeling very much, he is already over six years old, and after a conversation with Long Linyuan before, Xiao Yun's control over him has also relaxed a lot, so that he can arrange his own time, just need to go home on time to eat.
As for the Xuan Qi in his body, Long Chen spent several years researching, trying to find some ways to recover quickly, but he gained little.
The only way to recover faster than normal is to move around in the early hours of the morning, before the sun is about to rise, and for an hour or two when sunset and nightfall, when the legs are crossed at a certain constant speed, it seems to stimulate certain acupuncture points, which can slightly accelerate the recovery of Xuan Qi in the body.
This recovery speed is about twice as fast as in normal conditions, and it only adds up to four or five hours a day to have this effect, although the effect is not very good, but it still has some effect.
Of course, there are several ways to speed up the recovery of Xuan Qi in that broken booklet, but most of those methods are restored with the help of foreign objects, including magic stones, elixirs, and strange herbs and fruits...... None of these things can be obtained by Long Chen now, and as for the other ways to rely on abilities to recover, they can't be compared to him.
There are about a dozen children of the same age in Xinling Town and Longchen, but the only person who can say a few words to Longchen is Qiangzi, ordinary six or seven-year-old children are still in a chaotic day, Qiangzi has been cultivated by Longchen for two years, and he has gradually surpassed ordinary children in both thought and behavior, which can barely keep up with Longchen's rhythm.
After more than two years of mixing with Longchen, Qiangzi has gained a lot of benefits and learned several novel words, such as TV, computer, and telephone, although he doesn't know what these three electricity are, but ordinary children don't know the words he knows, which makes him feel that he has a very promising future with Longchen.
Under normal circumstances, when Hadron and Longchen are together, it is Longchen who races and walks in front of Hadron and chases behind, Longchen jumps over the obstacle Hadron stumbles and crawls behind, and after two years, Hadron's body has been extremely well exercised, not to mention that it is half a head higher than Longchen, and the bouncing endurance and speed are beyond the ordinary child by a grade, of course, it is still far worse than Longchen.
Seeing that his son's health is getting better and better, and doing fewer and fewer bad things, Uncle Zhang is more relieved that Qiangzi and Longchen are together, and Longchen can no longer get rid of the followers who follow behind his ass.
Although there is a big gap in mental age, physically he always grew up wearing open crotch pants, and after getting along for so many years, Long Chen reluctantly recognized the fact that Qiangzi was a friend of his, of course, this friend had to add a small word in front of it.
After walking around Xinling Town a few times, the mist that shrouded the town gradually dispersed, the sun slowly rose, Long Chen's little face was a little ruddy and he walked back home, and although the strong son who came out of the house and followed him behind his butt was out of breath, he still had a very satisfied smile on his face.
Qiangzi has always thought that Long Chen must have some secret training method to run faster and jump higher than him, so in addition to sleeping, he follows Long Chen almost all day long, and the two years of following it seem to have had an effect, which makes him more firm in his opinion.
When he was about to arrive at the door of Longchen's house, Qiangzi suddenly asked, "Longchen, are you going to school in the future?"
"Going to school?"
Long Chen was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Maybe." ”
Hadron blinked, "Will you go to an ordinary academy or a metaphysical academy?"
Long Chen stopped and said casually: "If you can pass, you can go to the Xuan Academy, but if you can't pass, you can go to the ordinary academy." ”
There are two different academies in the domestic continent, one is the town-level civil and military academies set up by various empires, and the provincial-level civil and military academies, and the senior liberal arts academies and military academies set up in the capital to select talents for civil and military governance.
And the other is the Xuan Academy supervised by the six major sects, and now only three empires have the qualifications to open the Xuan Academy, and the three major empires of the Hainei continent - Zilan Kingdom, Nanluo Kingdom, and Dayu Kingdom.
The Xuan Academy has the right of priority admission, and in fact, no one who can be admitted to the Xuan Academy wants to go to the civil and military academy established by the empire.
Parents in the entire Hainei Continent hope that their children can be admitted to the Xuanzong Academy, which is equivalent to jumping into the Dragon Gate, even if they are not qualified to stay in the Xuanzong Hall in the end, they will also be a hot talent in the empire after they come out.
Everyone knows that it is not the three empires that really control the fate of the Hainei Continent, let alone those principalities, but the Xuanzong Palace, as long as the Xuanshen Temple orders down, whether it is the Zilan Kingdom or the Nanluo Dayu Kingdom, it is possible to disappear from the Hainei Continent in an instant.
After saying goodbye to Qiangzi, Long Chen, who came to the door of the house, directly pushed open the wooden door sandwiched between the fences, and when the gap between the two wooden doors opened in an instant, a flower suddenly appeared in front of him, and his chest was hit hard by a black shadow, and the whole person flew away directly.
