Chapter 39: Murder in the Street
Chu Lan came to his room, which was a small two-story building with exquisite shapes.
Genting mahogany is used as a beam, and crystal jade is used as a lamp. The walls are decorated with well-known murals by famous artists.
The layout is refreshing and clean, but it is not simple everywhere, and on the large red sandalwood inlaid jade coffee table, there is a golden silk cocooned butterfly jade clay pot. Now the aroma is steaming, it is a precious spice, and it has the effect of calming and refreshing. On the seat next to it, there is a big red mandarin duck playing in the water pillow.
Entering the bedroom, the bed is covered with a gold-edged floral blanket, and there are two small tables on both sides, one has a plum blossom porcelain vase on it, and the other has a Tang Sancai horse stepping on the swallow. There are prepared shoes underneath.
Chu Lan glanced at it, but she felt amazing, and even more emotionally felt that the wealth of the Hongyun Chamber of Commerce was rich, but she was not interested in these beautifully crafted treasured things.
When you come to the second floor, the window sits north and faces south, and the view is excellent, and you can see the bamboo sea churning in the backyard from here.
He didn't choose to go out today, but ran the "Origin" spiritual technique, absorbed the spiritual energy, and kept exhaling.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, Chu Lan's spiritual technique cultivation made progress, and eight spiritual power vortices appeared on the surface of his body, which was already the top performance of the spiritual wheel realm, and Chu Lan was overjoyed in his heart.
Sure enough, the spiritual formula given by the toad is complete, and the cultivation is much faster than the original fragment, and the speed at which he is now running the spiritual power is simply different from what he thought before, which may be the benefit of cultivating the spiritual technique.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Chu Lan went downstairs to open the door, it was a maid with a dinner plate. The maid looked a little shy, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chu Lan.
Chu Lan took the lunch box and motioned for her to come in, the maid blushed and helped him freshen up, Chu Lan wanted to refuse, but she resolutely disagreed, saying that it was arranged by the housekeeper, otherwise he would be punished, so he had to agree.
After freshening up, Chu Lan asked her if she had eaten, and she hesitated, thinking that she had heard it wrong
"Childe, what did you say, Hongyu didn't hear clearly. ”
"Did I say you have eaten?" Chu Lan accentuated her voice as she opened the lunch box.
Looking at the bowl of delicate pastries and porridge inside, it was very much in line with his appetite.
The maid named Hongyu raised her head for the first time, and lowered her head again, "The son hasn't eaten yet, where can I eat first, I'll eat it when the servant son finishes eating."
Chu Lan frowned, "What can't be inferior to people, it's all about people, what kind of people are high and low, I can't get used to that kind of self-righteous 'young master' the most, and I am not allowed to say that I am a subordinate in the future." ”
"Others say that you can endure it, but you can't feel inferior from the bottom of your heart, you are a human being, all beings are created equal, and you will have a bright day!"
He snorted slightly.
Redfish almost burst into tears, no one had ever said such a thing to a maid of such a low status and not very outstanding appearance as her. just replied tremblingly, "Childe, I wrote it down"
Chu Lan's expression eased slightly, took out a piece of bean cake and handed it to her, Hongyu's expression that had just eased became nervous again, "Don't don't, Gongzi tortured me, this is what you eat, where am I qualified to eat?"
Chu Lan ignored her and forcibly handed the bean cake to her.
Seeing that Chu Lan was unhappy, Hongyu ate it one bite at a time.
Chu Lan smiled knowingly, Hongyu ate three bites, the tears in her eyes could no longer be controlled, when she was ten years old, in order to support her younger brother, the family sold her to the Fish Dragon Kingdom, and later was seen by the housekeeper, so he kindly accepted her into the Hongyun Chamber of Commerce, and the reception was all people with superior status, and no one had ever treated her like a friend like this.
Chu Lan rubbed her head and didn't speak, Hongyu felt in her teary eyes that this young man, who looked extremely ordinary at first glance, was so good-looking!
At noon, after Chu Lan finished practicing the sword, he went to rinse his body again, changed into refreshing clothes and went out.
The first time you come to the capital of the fish and dragon country, you must have a good experience.
The streets are extremely wide, bustling with pedestrians, and bustling with activity.
Chu Lan was full of childlike heart, and bought a bunch of sugar gourds made of elixir exotic fruits from an old man, and ate them with relish.
Then I started to wander around the place where the spirit stone secret treasure was sold, but I was a little disappointed, and I wandered for a long time, but I didn't find what I liked.
Hungry, he went to a restaurant and found a place to sit by the window.
The reason why Chu Lan went in and out of the wine shop was that he was a little greedy for the food that the dignitaries and dignitaries in the red dust disdained and disdained, but it was actually extremely delicious, and he also felt that the tavern was an excellent place to search for news.
After taking a look at the hotel's signboard, it is indeed much fresher and more refined than the big fish and meat of Qunying Restaurant.
After a while, the wine and dishes are all together, a plate of garlic fried eggplant, dissolved from the middle with a knife, put the sauce in the middle, boil in the oil pot, the sauce fragrance is integrated into the eggplant, out of the pot at the right time, filter out the excess oil and water, and then sprinkle with coriander, garlic, the taste is very fragrant, the garlic and eggplant fragrance do not cover up, but the layers are clear, complement each other.
A plate of wine crab claws, the freshness and tenderness of the crab claws mixed with wine aroma, are also superb, and there is also a plate of fried pineapple shrimp and black pepper veal. A jar of daughter red.
Chu Lan was very agitated, eating like a whirlwind, and at the same time paying attention to whether there was any information he wanted around him.
His ears moved, caught a sound, and lowered the crab claws in his hand.
"Tomorrow is the time for that broken little world to open, I don't know which geniuses will participate"
"Yes, it's worth looking forward to, but I've heard others say that this is ostensibly an opportunity for the younger generation, and on the other hand, it is also a competition for the Hongyun Chamber of Commerce to test the ability of some juniors to recognize people and win people's hearts, and who is the president of the next realm?"
"Also, after all, the president only has one daughter, and it is somewhat difficult to let the woman be the next leader."
At this time, a person next to him poked his head out, "I heard that there is a person in the Bai family who has been selected and has the qualifications to participate."
"The Bai family counts Bai Yongyan as the most talented, but it is said that he has now entered the realm of dawn, so I am afraid that he will not be able to participate this time. ”
The other shook his hand and moved the bench in this direction. Put on a posture of wanting to pull a homely routine, ", you don't know this, the Bai family has recently produced a martial arts genius, and he has the strength of the peak of the six grades of the spirit wheel at the age of eighteen, called Bai Yan"
"It turned out to be him, I heard that Bai Cheng was taken to the mountains by a crane to practice when he was ten years old, and now it has been eight years, maybe he has gained some great inheritance."
Chu Lan was listening attentively, it turned out that this qualification was so precious, but I didn't know why Xia Jingyan took a fancy to her, could it be that she really couldn't find someone to form a team, so she invited him to make up the numbers?
Suddenly there was a commotion downstairs, and four children of the family were pulling a woman in a maid's costume. The woman was holding a sack of burlap money.
Chu Lan looked at it and saw that it was a red fish!
Hongyu has asked many people for news, and then found out where his biological parents' home is, but I heard that the old couple later contracted the disease, only the younger brother is supporting the family, and the life is poor, Hongyu saves some money every month, and goes to the money village to find someone to send to the family. But he himself did not dare to go back.
Before I arrived at Qianzhuang today, I was stopped by a few gorgeously dressed gentlemen on the road.
"Little sister, I'll play with my brother a few times today, I guarantee that I will earn more than you in a month."
The other person also spoke: "If I serve a few of us well today, I will marry you as a side room when the time comes." ”
A few people giggled and pulled at her, rubbing oil. The red fish blushed, but he didn't dare to resist, but his teeth bit his lip tightly, and the tears in his eyes were rolling.
Chu Lan lowered her head and quickly used her spiritual power to change her appearance.
The man who claimed to be a child of the Bai family stretched out a hand, pinched Hongyu's chin, and raised her little face.
Suddenly, the wrist was cold in the next second, and the hand holding the woman's chin instantly lost strength, and one palm was cut off in unison.
I saw a black-robed young man jumping down from the restaurant, his appearance was unremarkable, but the sword intent released from outside at this moment made people feel cold all over his body.
It was he who drew his sword and cut off the man's palm.
The Bai family's squirt held the severed hand, fell to the ground in pain, his eyes were furious, and several of his partners set him up.
He opened his mouth and shouted: "What a big boldness, do you know who Grandpa and I am, hit him for me"
Among the few people around him, who had practiced kung fu, drew his sword from his waist and rushed towards Chu Lan.
After all, he is a child of a family who lives too comfortably, where has he experienced a real life-and-death struggle, and he thinks that he can run amok after learning two tricks and three-legged cat kung fu.
Chu Lan pulled the red fish behind him, let the two of them stab at him, and then reached out with both hands, bent his fingers like hooks, and grabbed the swords of the two from the side.
Chu Lan's hands were staggered, the two of them were pulled, and the sword in their hands couldn't be withdrawn no matter what, and they were in a mess for a while, and they didn't know how to let go in time, so they let Chu Lan take it, and the two instantly cut off each other's heads, and a large piece of blood rain spilled down, turning into a headless corpse.
Where have the children of the Bai family seen such a bloody scene, they instantly recognized it and said tremblingly
"Don't kill me, my cousin is Bai Yan, he was chosen to enter the broken small world, and he will be stronger in the future, if you want to kill me, he will not let you go." ”
When the red fish saw the blood, he hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands, not daring to look at this bloody scene.
Good people on either side poked their heads out to see what was going on.
Seeing two headless corpses on the ground, a woman exclaimed, "Oops, murder!"
There are also some people who have long watched these unhappy people clapping their hands, but they don't dare to be too public, after all, the Bai family is also a famous family in the Fish Dragon Country. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to tease the maid of the Hongyun Chamber of Commerce.
"Little brother, listen to my brother's advice, get out of here quickly, no matter how late it is, you won't be able to leave, someone from the Bai family has already gone to report the news!"
The kind-hearted big brother in the wine shop reminded.
Chu Lan looked at the severed hand of the Bai family and spoke coldly
"Don't say that your brother is Bai Yan, even if you tell me that your father is Li Gang, I will kill him today!"
He didn't know what was wrong, he saw blood today, the killing intent in his chest was boiling, and he couldn't control it, and now his eyes were a little red.
The people of the Bai family spoke again, "Do you really want to offend the Bai family for a maid?"
Chu Lan stepped forward and kicked his head directly, the sword qi in his hand was agitated, and he killed the rest of the people in an instant.
"What kind of maid is not a maid, I don't take your cheap life, dog slave!"
He was about to turn away. Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and there was a loud sound of kicking and tapping.
When he arrived, a group of iron horsemen rushed into the street, and the first man sat on a tall horse, holding a spear in his hand.
Someone around exclaimed, "The Bai family actually dispatched half a hundred pro-riders!"
Fifty Iron Riders with black scales and black armor are like a torrent of steel.
Although it is far inferior to the thousand-man Jin Wuwei Xiuzhen army of the Lord of the Fish and Dragon Country, it is already unstoppable in terms of momentum.
The Ichthyosaurus Kingdom allows the big family to have private soldiers, but it is not allowed to exceed two hundred, and this Bai family is equivalent to dispatching a quarter of the soldiers' combat strength at once.
Chu Lan laughed, good come!
