I have to say that the layout of the private room of the Xuanao Inn is extremely elegant. The private room is not large, in the center of the room

There is a beautifully carved wooden seat, surrounded by three simple and atmospheric screens, and the only exposed side is facing the window, and sitting at the table, you can have a panoramic view of several plum trees and flower beds in the courtyard outside the window, which seems to have a pleasant charm.

Scanning the ancient paintings tattooed on the surrounding three screens, Zhang Hao was surprised to find that the pictures on the three screens were faintly related, as if telling a story.

Stretched out his tender little hand to pour the tea one by one, raised his eyes and saw Zhang Hao's eyes wandering, with a look of curiosity on his face, Shangguan Gui'er smiled slightly, and explained: "What is told on this screen is a legend of Shuiao City a long time ago. ”

As soon as the words fell, seeing that Zhang Hao's attention was aroused, Shangguan Gui'er stretched out his hand and gestured slightly to the teacup on the table, and continued: "It is said that it was as early as the Third Great War of Good and Evil Illusionists more than six thousand two hundred years ago. The high-level demonic beast clan of the Blood Sea Forest rioted for unknown reasons and invaded the territory of the Zhengyuan Empire. And the nearest Shuiao City bore the brunt. Under the ravages of demonic beasts, most of the residents of the city were killed and injured. Later, the royal family sent a master of divine masters to arrive, and the phantom beast of his contract was Xuantian Daao. Due to the special geographical location of Shuiao City, it is not easy for the city to expand after tens of thousands of years. In order to prevent the city from being destroyed by those demonic beasts, this divine master led people to guard the main gate and fought against the invading demonic beast clans like a flood for nearly two months. ”

"At that time, no one knew how many monsters he had killed. It's just that after that battle, the land within a mile outside Shuiao City was infected with blood, and it didn't change to its original appearance in the next three years. Later, the castle was preserved. This senior, who was revered as the Xuanao Divine Master, did not know where to go. Some people say that he was exhausted and died in battle when the monster group retreated. It is also said that he was so badly injured that he died not long after returning to the emperor. But more people think that this great hero chose to hide Dalu because he felt that the killing was too heavy, and he never appeared again since his death. ”

Speaking of this, Shangguan Gui'er couldn't help but have a little admiration on his face, and said, "That time the battle between the good and evil illusionists ended, and it ended with the evil master being driven back to the desert island in the open sea. Later, the new city lord and the residents of the city changed the name of the previous Shuihua City to Shuiao City in gratitude to the Xuanao Divine Master. The central square of the city erects a statue for the Xuanao priest and inscribes the deeds. To commemorate the great achievements of his old man. ”

When the words fell, Zhang Hao nodded at the right time. He didn't expect that there would be such an allusion to the name of Shuiao City.

"Whoosh"

While the people were talking, the fat man listened quietly as he began to munch on the two dishes that had been served below. At this point, maybe his movements are too big, or maybe the aroma wafting from the dish is really tempting. I saw a small figure squirm in his arms for most of the day, revealing a small head. It was Xiao Wu who had been hanging in the arms of the fat man.

"Fat uncle, feed Xiao Wu a bite!" A milky voice came, which immediately attracted the attention of Shangguan Gui'er and Shangguan Ying'er. When I saw the little beast with small horns on its head, big black eyes, and a small tongue constantly spitting out, it seemed to be a very greedy little beast, and an extremely bright color immediately appeared on the faces of the two women, as if that kind of cute little thing with meat whirring was born with an inexplicable lethality to girls.

"Brother Zhang Hao, what is this little thing? How can it be so cute?" Shangguan Ying'er stared at Xiao Wu, her eyes full of curiosity.

Seeing that Xiao Wu kept struggling to grab the plate in front of him, the fat man simply loosened his neckline, reached out and took it out and put it on the table, and said, "This is my brother's phantom beast, he usually likes the fat brother's ...... the most." Forehead...... I like to stay in the arms of the fat guy and play. I've been sleeping just now, and I'm hungry at this time. ”

After a few days of hurrying, Xiao Wu spent the rest of the time sticking to the fat man, except for training with Zhang Hao when he leaned over, which was very inconvenient. Therefore, the fat man had to let Xiao Wu grasp it on one side all the time, which happened to be in the armpit position. In addition, his robe was wide and his figure was extremely majestic, so there was no big anomaly on the surface.

At this moment, Xiao Wu squatted on the table with his true face, his stubby tail wagged and wagged, and his little paws grabbed the meat pieces handed by the fat man and gnawed them, indescribably silly and cute. Almost the next moment, the doting little stars flashed in the eyes of the two girls next to them, and they hurriedly moved the stool and leaned over.

While picking up chopsticks and pinching a piece of meat for Xiao Wu, Shangguan Ying'er opened her mouth and asked, "Brother Zhang Hao, your phantom beast still looks like a young beast." ”

Looking up and glimpsing Zhang Hao smiling and nodding, Shangguan Gui'er reached out and stroked Xiao Wu's back, and said strangely: "What kind of demonic beast is this?" Although it is very similar to the dragon clan, the body of the dragon must be at least one zhang long when it is born. How is it so little?"

It's not that Shangguan Gui'er has a vicious eye. Because the Warcraft that live on Zhengyuan Dalu all have one thing in common. That is, the promotion of strength is directly related to the size of the body. It is precisely because of this that the cultivation of the Warcraft in the later stage will be extremely slow because the body is too large. Now seeing Xiao Wu's petite appearance, Shangguan Gui'er can't help but feel weird.

"Xiao Wu's background is a bit special. But the talent is very strong. He was born like this, and as he grew up, his body would slowly grow up. ”

Hearing this vague explanation, Shangguan Gui'er couldn't help but roll her eyes. Maybe he was attracted by Xiao Wu at this time, but he didn't continue to ask.

"Sister, don't touch me, okay?" twisted his back a little uncomfortably, Xiao Wu opened his eyes and pouted at Xiangshang Guan Gui'er, and said.

"Don't touch, don't touch. Come, let my sister hug. Sister is here to feed you. Seeing Xiao Wu's disgusted and coquettish appearance, the corners of Shangguan Gui'er's mouth curved a little, and she stretched out her hands lovingly and said gently.

His eyes continued to scan in front of the hearts of the two girls in front of him, and after a while, as if he had made a comparison, Xiao Wu's eyes were finally fixed on Shangguan Gui'er's heart, and then he turned his head to look at Zhang Hao with some opinions, and said, "Uncle Hao, I'll play with my sister for a while, just for a while!"

Seeing Zhang Hao nodding with a wry smile, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up, and his two chubby calves kicked on the table, and his body flipped over, and he rushed into Shangguan Gui'er's arms. Then under the fierce twitching of the corners of the fat man's eyes, his back kept rubbing back and forth, blatantly rubbing oil in front of the public. But Shangguan Gui'er didn't feel the slightest abnormality, and Shangguan Ying'er on the side kept picking up the food on the table and handing it to the little beast in her arms, playing happily.

"Hey! sometimes I really want to be a young beast!" and Zhang Hao glanced at each other, seeing the bitterness in each other's eyes, and the fat man let out a long sigh in his heart.

"Squeak"

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and a middle-aged man with a handsome face walked in. The visitor was dressed in a black robe, with long black hair draped over his shoulders, and a faint smile on his face, which looked very elegant.

Walking a few steps closer, seeing the scene next to the table and chairs, the middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Gui'er, why didn't you stay down there and ran to the private room? You must know that the Xuanao Inn costs 600 high-grade power stones for the private room alone." You've always been frugal, and that's not like your style. ”

The person who came was the ink that he came back to the inn and found directly after receiving the news from the students on the first floor. He is also the leading training teacher of the Elemental Control Illusionist Academy this time, not long after this person broke through the Saint Master level, the phantom body has stabilized at the eightfold, and the demonic beast is a nine-star high. The phantom beast leaned down, and its comprehensive strength could be described as a master who stepped into the Eight Great Formation Phantom Bodies with one foot. The strength is very strong.

After saying this, Ink's gaze was almost immediately fixed on Zhang Hao, and a trace of surprise appeared in his heart. Even though the aura on the young man in front of him was very hidden, he still noticed something unusual.

"Who are these two little brothers?" walked to the table and sat down, his eyes turned to Xiangshang Guan Gui'er, staring at Xiao Wu in his arms, Shui Mo's face flashed a touch of strangeness again, and asked.

Immediately after, Shangguan Gui'er briefly recounted what had just happened, and listened to the ink nodding again and again. After the introduction, he was surprised, and almost instantly understood what Shangguan Gui'er meant, and immediately reached out his hand to shake Zhang Hao and the fat man one by one, and said with a smile: "I am friends with Dean Zhai of Zhongping Academy. I really didn't expect that in this class of freshmen, Brother Zhai would receive such two excellent students. No wonder he's back in the mountains this year. It seems that the next time I go to Shuichang City, I will have to knock him well. ”

After a few unrestrained words fell, feeling the easy-going nature of ink painting, Zhang Hao and the fat man suddenly had a good impression of the former. Immediately, Shui Mo's face was slightly solemn, and he said, "A few months ago, the evil master invaded the Herringbone Phantom Beast Tower, and Zhongping Academy didn't suffer any losses, right?"

"The damage is not too great. Because the evil master had a strong purpose at the beginning, plus a late-night raid. There were no casualties, but they were discovered by two divine masters of the royal family along the way, and several buildings were destroyed during the fight. Zhang Hao opened his mouth to explain.

Zhongping Academy can be said to be the hard work of Brother Zhai for half his life. If he really suffered a huge loss, it is estimated that he will be hit hard. The sigh fell, and the ink sighed secretly.

"Mentor, this is Zhang Hao's Demonic Beast. Can you recognize its body?" Seeing that the atmosphere was silent for a while, Shangguan Gui'er asked at the right time.

"I really can't see it!"

Looking closely at the chubby Xiao Wu, Shui Mo couldn't help but reach out and poke the former's belly. Seeing that the other party turned his head to the side, only caring about eating, but didn't pay attention to himself, Ink couldn't help but be happy, looked at Zhang Hao with deep meaning, and said: "There are many Shijie monsters. In the Dry Bone Desert and some unknown mysterious places, some unknown and powerful magical beasts may be born. I guess Brother Xiaohao's phantom beast should belong to this list!"

Seeing that the ink also couldn't recognize Xiao Wu's body, Shangguan Gui'er's eyes suddenly appeared with surprise. Although the mentor in front of him looked quite young, he was more than 100 years old. He has been teaching at the Elemental Illusionist Academy for nearly thirty years, and with the other party's insight and profound knowledge, he can't recognize Xiao Wu's ontology, which can't help but feel a little unbelievable.

Seeing that Shangguan Gui'er was about to ask something, Shui Mo stretched out his hand slightly, and then said: "The two little brothers came to the Blood Sea Forest this time to practice, is it just the two of you? Plus you are still first-year freshmen, I'm afraid that if this is the case, Brother Zhai Qing alone will not agree, right?"

Hearing such a sharp question about ink painting, Zhang Hao shook his head and smiled, and said, "It's really only our two brothers, this time it's not long before I contract a phantom beast, and I want to come to train for a while." Second, the elder brother is about to open the divine soul, and he wants to try his luck and contract a phantom beast for him. ”

Hearing this, Shui Mo's heart was full of disbelief and shook his head slightly, but he didn't ask any further. Because when Shangguan Gui'er introduced the two, he could feel the closeness in the latter's words. Ink is different from the young Shangguan Gui'er, he is good at the world, and now everyone has not known each other for too long, if he continues to ask the root of the question, it is likely to arouse the disgust of the other party.

However, the ink itself has an extremely good relationship with the Shangguan family, so at this time, he directly said: "In this case, the two little brothers will go with the academy team." The Blood Sea Forest is much more dangerous than you think, and it's inhabited. If you follow us, safety is also guaranteed. Anyway, this time I brought the students here, firstly, for training, and secondly, to find a suitable opportunity to contract a phantom beast with a talent of more than nine stars for Ying'er. When the time comes, if there is a suitable demonic beast, he will also help this fat brother capture it. What do you think?"

After saying that, seeing the hesitation on Zhang Hao's face, he smiled and said, "Of course, if you have personal matters to do, you can also choose to leave after arriving at the Blood Sea Forest." It's just that I'm quite familiar with this dangerous place, and I can save a lot of time and trouble along the way. ”

Seeing that Shui Mo was talking about this, Zhang Hao was not easy to refuse, so he immediately nodded and said, "Then it will trouble Mr. Shui." ”

"It's not troublesome! you are all young people, and you have a lot of communication along the way, and having multiple friends is not a good thing for your future cultivation career!"

Hearing Zhang Hao's answer, the corners of Shui Mo's mouth curved a little, and when he turned his head to look at Shangguan Gui'er, a smile appeared on his face......
