Only by bathing in fire can you know the azure color, and only when the wind moves can you understand the scales. There is an archway on the shore of the mirror lake, cast on the mountain stone, after walking through a section of the mountain road, there are many flowers and plants on the side of the road, and the end is the warping pavilion. Day and night rain blows, when the sky is fine, the porcelain blue sky above the head of the pavilion, when the wind and rain, the mirror lake under the pavilion is sparkling.

There is water and mountains in the Mirror Lake Sword Courtyard, the pavilion occupies a hill alone, looking away, as if a silver hook has been raised from the lake, the top of the pavilion is painted with silver paint, and I don't know whether it is the day of fishing, or the lake of fishing.

In fact, it is one of the more expensive canteens of Jinghu Sword Academy, and students and teachers love to come here to eat.

Today, Qiaoting is lively, a group of disciples from the outer courtyard have taken over one-third of the entire Qiaolou first floor, and have neatly circled six tables.

A table next to the window, where you can look at the entire mirror lake, is full of more than a dozen people. Among them, there was only one female disciple of the Sword Academy, and the rest were all men.

There was a man with a mediocre appearance but an arrogant and proud expression beside the female disciple. He sat on a chair with his head and chewed on the fried beans on the table, and from time to time he looked at the woman next to him with his spare eyes, his eyes mocking and obscene.

"Zhang Shiyao, what are you doing with a bitter face? Come and give me a smile! Laugh! The man said loudly, stretched out his hand, and forcibly hugged the female disciple beside him.

The female disciple's expression flashed with disgust and struggle, but she still let the man hug her waist, and only grabbed his hand when he was about to continue to touch him in public.

The man's hand was grabbed by Zhang Shiyao, his face suddenly sank, and he directly picked up the fried beans in his hand and threw them on Zhang Shiyao's face.

"You are Lao Tzu's woman, Lao Tzu can't touch you?!"

Zhang Shiyao's body trembled slightly, gritted her teeth, and there was a deep anger and disgust between her eyebrows, but she endured it, her face changed again and again, and she showed a far-fetched smile at the man, "Sun Lang, the food will come soon, you eat some food first, what do you want to eat?" I'll clip it for you! ”

The man who was called Sun Lang sneered mockingly, Zhang Shiyao's submission at this time seemed to bring him a sense of satisfaction, he picked up a fried bean from the plate and threw it directly to the ground, "Okay, you pick it up for me." ”

Zhang Shiyao smiled reluctantly, bent down to pick up the fried bean, and handed it to Sun Lang.

Sun Lang didn't take it at all, how could he eat what fell on the ground. Sun Lang looked teasing and proud: "You have served me vegetables, how can I be embarrassed?" Come, this bean will be eaten for you, eaten! ”

“...... You know, me, I don't like pacmen. ”

"Eat!"

Zhang Shiyao's body trembled, and his expression struggled. She looked at the fried beans in her hand, because of the heavy rain, there were many muddy puddles in the Sword Courtyard, which had not dried up yet, and everyone stepped on them and brought them into the Qiao Pavilion, so the Qiao Pavilion was on the ground on the first floor, in fact, there were mud marks everywhere. The fried beans that Sun Lang still went out were also stained with muddy water, as well as dirty soles of various shoes.

Zhang Shiyao's movements were stiff, and she looked left and right, she and Sun Lang were not the only ones at this table, but the other dozen or so people all looked like they were watching a play, and they only had disdain and ridicule in their eyes. After a few seconds, she slowly put the mud-stained fried beans into her mouth, chewed along with the mud, and swallowed it into her stomach.

"I ate it." Zhang Shiyao's voice suppressed hatred.

"Hahahaha! Good! Sun Lang laughed.

"Okay, okay, Sun Lang, wait for the big brother to come over next week."

"What did this little lady say a few days ago, Boss Gu died, and I laughed to death!"

"It's just a miscellaneous disciple, and it's really shameless. Have you ever been in? Without our Sun Lang bringing you here, can you afford to eat? Hahahaha......"

A few days ago. Zhang Shiyao heard that Gu Xin was dead, and after hesitating for a day, he stubbornly drew a clear relationship with Sun Lang. thought that at the beginning, it was Sun Lang who led a group of people to force himself to be his woman, Zhang Shiyao was unwilling, so Sun Lang beat her friend! and threatened her with Zhou Bao's name!

This week's treasure ...... Zhang Shiyao is very jealous, but in fact, he is not afraid, Zhou Bao's family is the richest man in Yuanqing County, although he is rich and powerful, he is only a businessman in the end. Zhang Shiyao is a disciple of the Sword Academy, Zhou Bao can't do anything with her.

——What really scared Zhang Shiyao was that Zhou Bao had a good brother named Gu Xin!

Gu Xin doesn't know Zhang Shiyao, Zhang Shiyao can know Gu Xin! I even saw Gu Xin and Zhou Bao hooking shoulders from afar, and they were mixed together all day long!

The son of the dignified Jiangzhou General River Five-Rank Real Power Official, there is no one in the whole Baoyun who has a higher official position than his father! Zhang Shiyao hated, the person he hated was Sun Lang, it was Zhou Bao, and he didn't even dare to hate Gu Xin. She is just an ordinary family, with talent and hard work, she has worked hard to get the identity of a disciple of the Sword Academy, after being humiliated by Sun Lang, Zhang Shiyao cried that day, and thought about leaving the Sword Academy directly, but in the end, she couldn't let go of this worry.

How much hardship has her family, her parents and relatives paid for her? Jinghu Sword Academy is one of the strongest martial arts schools in Jiangzhou, and Zhang Shiyao never forgets the expressions of her friends and relatives on the day she successfully entered the Sword Academy. As an ordinary person, the sadness lies in this, and even this sadness is precious to her, after all, this is the "result" of her hard work for more than ten or twenty years, even if this result is not good enough, even if this result is stained with black spots because of a person named Sun Lang! Zhang Shiyao couldn't put everything behind and abandon this sword academy that carried her hard work.

Zhang Shiyao listened to the ridicule of the people around her at the dinner table.

"I obviously confirmed that Gu Xin was dead, and the main hall of Qixiao Hall clearly said that his injuries would definitely not survive." After Zhang Shiyao heard about the attack of the river demon, he even made a special trip to inquire about the bald old doctor of Qi Xiaotang who hanged Gu Xin's life, saying that Gu Xin's injury would definitely not survive! It's just that the wicked have evil retribution!

Until a few days ago - Gu Xin turned out to be alive again!

Now, Sun Lang brought her to participate in this Qiaoting banquet of "Welcoming Boss Gu", in fact, he wanted to humiliate her in public. Let her understand that she can't afford to mess with Sun Lang!

Zhang Shiyao only felt that the world was impermanent, and there was unspeakable bitterness in his heart.

This sword courtyard, it is impossible for her to leave. If you don't leave, you will face Sun Lang's endless humiliation. It is even more impossible to resist, Sun Lang and these people, Zhou Bao and Gu Xin, have privately become a group that many people in the Sword Academy are afraid of, they all call that Gu Xin the boss, and call each other brothers, it is not at all that a disciple of her miscellaneous courtyard dares to disobey.

The dish is served. The dishes of Qiaoting are indeed expensive, and many of the ingredients are treasures, such as the meat of special magical beasts, such as spirit fruits, such as the unique wine and spirit soup brewed in the Sword Academy...... Soon, the pavilion became lively.

In the distance, everyone began to shout and look through the window, since the food was served, it meant that the main owner had arrived. Sure enough, on the mountain road full of spiritual flowers and beautiful trees in Qiaoting, six people appeared like stars holding the moon.

The leader is naturally Gu Xin, and his side is Zhou Bao, Li Ming, Wang Wang, Yan Sannan, and Qiao Zhi.

"Oo——!!oo

"It's coming! Boss Gu is here! ”

"Brother Zhou, they invited Boss Gu!"

"Who the said Boss Gu was dead? Isn't this a good life?! ”

Far away. Gu Xin heard the shouts in the pavilion.

He's used to it...... It's not the first time I've heard this kind of shouting.

Zhou Bao, the big bald head beside him, smiled with a bad face, and was so proud that he even hugged Gu Xin's shoulders in public. Although Gu Xin frowned, he didn't avoid seeing him smiling so brightly.

Zhou Bao raised his eyes and looked at it, and in front of him was the beautiful Qiao Pavilion, and the window on the first floor was already full of Sword Academy disciples who welcomed them.

"Is Boss Gu happy? You see, hahahaha, the brothers are here! Zhou Bao pointed to the window, the spring breeze proud.

His eyes swept over the disciples who were lying by the window and shouting, and he saw many people, and he also saw Sun Lang.

Zhou Bao could see that Sun Lang was also looking at himself, and Sun Lang's eyes were full of reverence for him!

"Where is that Sun Lang?" Zhou Bao couldn't help but think of what happened seven or eight days ago. That day, Sun Lang came to Zhou Bao and said that Zhang Shiyao, the female disciple of the miscellaneous courtyard he had a crush on, dared to cut off relations with him! After hearing this, Zhou Bao directly led people to find Zhang Shiyao, but who knew that this slut didn't give Zhou Bao any face! and scolded him in public!

"This slut also said that Gu Xin is dead, isn't he alive and well?" Zhou Bao looked at Gu Xin beside him, and his heart felt relieved. Zhou Bao is the news of Gu Xin's death that he heard from Zhang Shiyao's mouth! And Gu Xin's death is not good news for Zhou Bao!

This time Qiaoting had dinner, Sun Lang said that he wanted to bring that Zhang Shiyao, Zhou Bao agreed, what he wanted was to let the woman understand that he Zhou Bao would definitely not be able to provoke him, what he wanted was that Sun Lang had deep respect for him Zhou Bao. He Zhou Bao is a good friend of Gu Xin!

Pal...... Zhou Bao smiled in his heart. Actually, he didn't think that Gu Xin's temper really suited his appetite. But the son of a dignified five-grade powerful official, heh. Who would hate it?

"Boss Gu, are you laughing! The brothers are here, you may not be unhappy? Zhou Bao found that Gu Xin didn't seem to be smiling much, so he joked with Gu Xin with a smile.

Gu Xin showed a smile that was neither big nor small, "Let's go in, I'm a little hungry too." ”

Five people surrounded Gu Xin in the middle and entered the Qiao Pavilion.

Gu Xin saw the six huge tables that had been chartered, except for the one in the middle, which only had six empty seats, and each table was surrounded by more than a dozen people. Add up to dozens of people, all of whom are disciples of the Sword Academy! Gu Xin glanced at it roughly, most of them were familiar, but he couldn't remember the names, he was indeed his "fox friends and dog friends".

Zhou Bao led Gu Xin to sit at the empty table in the middle, clapping his hands enthusiastically and shouting, "Boss Gu is here!" ”

"Oooo

"Hello Boss!!"

"Hahaha!!"

It's a buzz.

Gu Xin also smiled, no matter what, these people were calling him boss, and they didn't say anything at all, with a cold face, Gu Xin didn't think it was good.

He looked at his "fox friends and dog friends" and found that most of them were men, and there were few women, and they didn't seem to be able to make up a table. Alas.

"Everybody eats." Gu Xin was also not polite, and directly called everyone to eat.

He's here today to eat, what time is he wasting?

Zhou Bao also shouted: "Eat, eat, eat!" I'm out of today's meal money! Brothers, let go of the belly and eat! ”

"Oooo Brother Zhou is atmospheric! ”

"Brother Zhou!!"

It's bustling again.

Gu Xin shook his head and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables for himself. Someone pays for food, so dare to be kind, he thought that he would ask his "boss" to pay later!

Zhou Bao, Li Ming, Wang Wang, Yan Sannan, and Qiao Zhi also sat down with Gu Xin, and several people picked up their chopsticks and had a drink with Gu Xin while shouting.

Gu Xin pursed his lips, Qiaoting's wine did have a flavor.

Zhou Bao and the five people were full of smiles, the meat on their faces was wrinkled with laughter, they were eating food with wine, and they began to blow things to each other, what a while ago there was a new Oiran in the drunken spring building, what county Qiao Hutong opened a new card hall, how much money was won, and there was some gossip, such as the recent flood was too big, and there seemed to be no silver in the county......

Gu Xin was occasionally pulled up by the topic of the five people, so he casually dealt with two sentences, for example, there is indeed no silver in the county town, and even the disaster relief silver is a white slip made by the imperial court and borrowed to resist.

Soon, after three rounds of banquet wine, people gradually began to come to Gu Xin with wine glasses to toast.

Gu Xin put on a shelf, others came to have a drink, he took a sip, no one dared to say that he was not, but everyone felt that today's "Boss Gu" was very elegant, and he actually came to drink one by one, and no one was left out in the cold!

So the number of people who came to Gu Xin to toast gradually increased, and many of them blushed and ran to drink with the "boss".

Among them...... Sun Lang!

Gu Xin narrowed his eyes.

Sun Lang was holding a girl with a drunken face and messy hair in his arms, and he was also drunk, so he directly picked up a big porcelain bowl and came over to toast Gu Xin!

Gu Xin asked flatly, "Who is he?" ”

Zhou Bao was drinking while punching with Nan Sanyan, when he heard Gu Xin ask, he turned his head and smiled.

"His name is Sun Lang!"

"Come Sun Lang! Come here! Zhou Bao scratched his bald head and shouted with full anger.
