Nothing was said all night.

On the second day, the rooster crowed three times, Xue Yi opened his eyes, and one rolled over and climbed up, his eyes flashing slightly. Pushing open the door, picking up the well water and washing his face, Xue Yi started his daily work lightly.

Sprinkle water, sweep the floor, replace the old water from yesterday in the water tank, and fill it with new water. At this time, the sun had already shown its head, and the faint glow quietly walked into the small courtyard. Xue Yi walked to the back of the house and took a cool bath with the well water he had just hit, and washed away the stinky sweat all over his body. I breathed a long sigh of relief and suddenly felt refreshed.

Changing into a clean white dress, Xue Yi walked out of the courtyard door and came directly to the kitchen to make breakfast for Zhou Shang.

The breakfast in the Zhou Mansion is uniformly cooked, of course, in this big family with clear classes, people of different status naturally eat differently. A servant like Xue Yi is naturally coarse tea and light rice, and Zhou Shang, as the pearl of the mansion master's palm, the food is naturally top-notch.

Picked up the lunch box full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and returned to the small courtyard with a familiar car, Zhou Shang had already gotten up. Although he was a disciple, Zhou Shang surprisingly did not have the slightest laziness, he got up early on time every day, and after washing up, he went to the martial arts school of the Zhou Mansion to start the day's schoolwork.

When Xue Yi pushed the door in, Zhou Shang was unfolding a set of boxing techniques in the courtyard. Although it is just a child's body, this set of Zhoufu's peerless "Chow Chow Flurry Boxing" plays decently. The dragon walks and the tiger walks, opening and closing, the tiger and the tiger are windy, and there is a faint sound of the tiger roaring and the lion roaring. Xue Yi didn't bother Zhou Shang, who was immersed in boxing, just stood quietly at the door, and waited until Zhou Shang's set of boxing techniques was finished, and then he sincerely praised: "Good fight!"

"Huh-" Zhou Shang retracted his fist, highlighted a breath of turbidity, and the beads of sweat on his forehead glowed slightly in the morning light: "How is today's food? Now my digestion ability is getting stronger and stronger, I ate a lot of meat and vegetables last night, and now my stomach is rumbling again." ”

"You're growing your body, and you're building the tenth layer of the foundation, so of course you eat a lot. However, this morning's meal is indeed good, oh, white jade yam, Cuiling bamboo shoot stew, ten years of ginseng soup, and a cup of side dishes. Xue Yi said, opening the lunch box on the stone table in the courtyard.

"Oh, it's really not bad, I ate a lot of big fish and meat last night, and this light breakfast is just right. Zhou Shang sat down, gobbling it up, and beckoned Xue Yi, "You also sit down and eat, together, it will be cold later." ”

Xue Yi sat down with a smile, picked up chopsticks to eat with Zhou Shang, and did not shirk, this is already a habit. Zhou Shang had already said to Xue Yi that he would eat more at every meal and eat with himself, and those coarse tea and light meals of the people were not eaten by people. Anyway, others don't know how much they can eat in one meal, and if they don't eat better, how can they cultivate with themselves?

After sweeping away the food on the stone table like a whirlwind and clouds, Zhou Shang stroked his heavy and bulging belly, squinted his eyes and said to Xue Yi: "I won't go to the school today, I told my father that I will take three days off before opening the natal element." Come with me to Qingyang City today, if you practice behind closed doors at home, you will have to cover your hair. ”

Qingyang City, the largest city within a hundred miles of the Qingyang Mountains, is located at the foot of the highest peak Qingyang Peak, is the economic center of the entire Qingyang Mountains, and is jointly managed by the four major families of Zhou, Mu, Zhuang and Han. In terms of prosperity, it is far from being comparable to Zhouzhen.

"Okay, I don't have anything to do, if you want to go, you can take me with you. Is there anyone else going with you?" Xue Yi nodded without hesitation and said with a smile. I think back to the last time I went to Qingyang City, it was several months ago. Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion is approaching, I have to go home to see my grandfather. Just go to the city to see what good things are there and bring a few for grandpa.

"Just the two of us. No guards. Qingyang City is also our own territory, and we also have our people. It's noisy with guards. Besides, our strength is also good, but not everyone can afford to mess with it. As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at Xue Yi.

"That's fine, it's easy to play by yourself. Open the way now?"

Young people speak and do things vigorously and resolutely, and they will leave as soon as they say. With the money bag in hand, the two of them were already striding on the road. The early morning sun shines well, shining dappled spots of light through the foliage on both sides of the road. Looking at the scenery all the way, talking and laughing, walking, walking like flying. Before noon, dozens of miles of road were gone, and the tall Qingyang City was in sight.

Although he had been here many times, every time he came, Xue Yi couldn't help but admire this magnificent city. The orange-red bricks were stacked one by one, forming a three-zhang high wall, and the noise of the noise rose from far away from the city and penetrated into my mind.

Unlike ordinary towns, this wealthy city is subject to attacks by intelligent monsters. One or two demonic beasts are not a threat, if a horde of beasts hits, it will be a little troublesome. Therefore, any city built not far from the Monster Colony will have such tall walls.

The two of them stepped into the city gate with light clothes, and a noise suddenly came to their faces, and a feeling of the world also arose. The blue stone paved streets are smooth and clean, and although they are not very wide, they can accommodate two carriages in parallel. The streets are lined with shops, and the sound of selling and bargaining is endless. Because it was close to noon, the two of them walked around the city and drove to the largest restaurant in the city, Jingyang Restaurant.

"Hey, isn't this the little master of the Zhou family, what kind of wind blew you here, my restaurant is full of brilliance today." As soon as he entered the door, the sharp-eyed shopkeeper greeted him with a smile on his face, "Prepare a private room for the two of you!"

"Uncle Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time. There is no need for a single room, we will come to Qingyang City today to walk around, sit in the lobby, be low-key, and find a quiet seat. Zhou Shang replied with a smile, although he is not very old, he is not ambiguous at all when dealing with people.

"Okay, then please sit down casually, and I will entertain you. This "Uncle Liu" obviously made the chubby old shopkeeper happy, but he obviously noticed the "we" in Zhou Shang's mouth, and glanced at the young man with an indifferent face behind Zhou Shang a few more times.

At this time, the lobby was close to full due to noon, and the popularity of the two floors of Jingyang Restaurant was full. The two walked around two floors before they found an empty dining table for two in a corner on the second floor.

The two stepped forward, and just as they were about to sit down, a cyan figure suddenly rushed out from behind, bringing a strong wind, sweeping the two and rushing forward. Before the two of them could react, a sitting figure had already appeared at the table in front of them: "I'll sit on this seat first, you can find another one." ”

"Mu Chuanfeng, don't deceive people too much!" Seeing the person coming clearly, Zhou Shang immediately fell down with his eyebrows and looked at the uninvited guest in front of him angrily.

Xue Yi's eyes condensed slightly, and he suddenly understood what was going on. This Mu Chuanfeng is Zhou Shang's old enemy. He is two years older than Zhou Shang, and he is also a little genius of the Mu family, the nephew of Mu Ke, the head of the Mu family, Mu Xiao's younger brother, and Mu Long's fourth son. When Zhou Shang came to Qingyang City a year ago, he had a little conflict with this Mu Chuanfeng, it was the age when young people were angry, so they naturally fought without saying a word. As a result, although Mu Chuanfeng's qualifications are not as good as Zhou Shang's, he is better than he is older, and his strength is naturally stronger. At that time, he was the eighth layer of the foundation, and Zhou Shang was still the seventh layer of the foundation. After some action, it was naturally Zhou Shang who fell behind. Although he was not injured, he lost face. In the past year, Zhou Shang has devoted himself to cultivation, and on the one hand, it is also the indirect promotion of this guy. I didn't expect the road to be narrow, but I didn't expect the two to meet again in Qingyang City a year later. Looking at Mu Chuanfeng's posture, it is obviously a naked provocation.

"If you're not as fast as others, then don't shout. If you have the ability, occupy the table first, and chirp crookedly in other people's seats, what are you doing?" A crisp female voice came from behind him, Xue Yi turned around, and saw a brightly dressed woman walking over. It seems that she should be about the same age as Mu Chuanfeng, with red phoenix eyes and hanging eyebrows, but the thin lips and sharp mockery clearly show that she is not a good type.

"Red Maple, come and sit down, whatever the two of them do. Seeing the woman known as the red maple coming over, Mu Chuanfeng's cold expression faded like a tide, and he looked at the red maple walking over with a smile on his face.

"Okay, you have the final say, don't have the same knowledge as them. Hongfeng changed his tone in an instant, and his glutinous and somewhat snorting voice gave Xue Yi goosebumps. Twisting his slender waist like a proud phoenix, he walked past Xue Yi and the others, and Hong Feng glanced at the two, his eyes full of disdain, "My subordinates are defeated, and I am embarrassed to come out and be embarrassed." ”

"You!" Zhou Shang was about to erupt, but was stopped by Xue Yi beside him with an arm.

"What are you, stay over there, don't get in the way of Ben Shao and his fiancée's meal. Although Mu Chuanfeng is only two years older than Zhou Shang, his appearance is obviously much more mature than him, a layer of black stubble has grown above his lips, and his long black hair is hairpinned up with a hairpin, neatly combed behind his head, quite an adult noble son's posture.

Hearing the words "fiancée", Zhou Shang paused for a moment, then stared at the red maple who had just walked over with wide eyes, burst out laughing, pointed at Mu Chuanfeng and laughed: "Haha, fiancée? This is your fiancée? Laugh at me, how old are you, do you have that function? Are you so anxious to marry a wife and have children?"

I have to say that Zhou Shang's words are indeed lethal enough, and Xue Yi gently stroked his forehead. But this Mu Long is really avant-garde, and his son is only fourteen years old and is in a hurry to find a daughter-in-law. Speaking of which, although the red maple is mean in language, if it only talks about appearance, it does have a bit of a posture.

"Smack-" The cup was swept to the ground fiercely, Mu Chuanfeng stood up abruptly, and looked at Zhou Shang with a pale face: "Is there a kind of you say again?" The red maple on the other side was also choked by the sentence just now, his face was flushed, and he glared angrily, but he couldn't speak.

This crisp sound made the noisy lobby instantly quiet, and everyone's eyes suddenly gathered in this corner, followed by whispering.

"I'm afraid you won't make it? You have that-" As soon as Zhou Shang spoke, a fist flew towards him, obviously Mu Chuanfeng couldn't help but move.

"Hmph-" Zhou Shang was prepared, his body did not retreat, but advanced, his right hand clenched his fist, and slammed it hard.

"Bang-" There was a muffled sound, and the two figures retreated with a touch. Zhou Shang's shoulders shook and his strength was gone, but Mu Chuanfeng took two or three steps back before standing firmly, his eyes showing shock.

"You're—"

"What's the matter, do you still dare to do it? Tell you, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, I am no longer Zhou Shang a year ago. If you have the ability, let's learn from each other again?" Zhou Shang looked at Mu Chuanfeng with a provocative expression.

"Two two, harmony is precious, harmony is precious, don't do it casually. The chubby shopkeeper finally arrived on the second floor at this moment, and said to a few people sweating profusely. Of course he knew the identities of these two sides, and it was precisely because of this that he panicked, because he couldn't afford to mess with these two.

"Let's go—" Mu Chuanfeng stared at Zhou Shang for a few seconds, and three words popped out of his teeth. Hongfeng, who was behind him, also glanced at the two of them with a disgruntled face when he heard this, and followed Mu Chuanfeng's footsteps.

"I'll pay for the damage. Before leaving, Mu Chuanfeng did not forget to take out a gold coin from his arms and threw it to Shopkeeper Liu.

"If you go slowly, you won't send it. Zhou Shang shouted loudly behind him, with a smug look on his face.
