Chapter 182: Into Xiangfan
At this moment, it is already twilight, and hundreds of boats are competing on the Spring God Lake, thousands of sails are competing, and there is a lively and prosperous scene.
Tonight, Xu Chuan and his entourage will settle on an island called Laoshan Mountain in the middle of the sacred lake.
This mountain was originally not called Basking Mountain, called Prison Mountain, it is the place where the Queen Mother of the West imprisoned the daughter of the Jade Emperor Spring God, and the prison mountain is not surrounded by a lake, just a basin, it is said that later there is a land immortal who is not popular, along the prison mountain a sword to draw a circle, collapsed for 800 miles, then gushing out of the lake, over time, the lake became the Spring God Lake, and the mountain became the Basking Mountain.
The guy who did the friendship of the landlord on the Laoshan Mountain was an old department of the Beiliang Army, who was responsible for leading the horse for Xu Xiao back then.
Now that he has started to soar after business, he is rich in a state, although it cannot be compared with the Su's Chamber of Commerce, but it is also one of the top few giant businessmen in Qingzhou.
Xu Chuan naturally knew that this was inseparable from Bei Liang's secret support, seeing that the old man named Wang Linquan was kneeling in front of Xu Fengnian with tears in his eyes and couldn't cry, he shook his head and chatted with Jiang Ni and them by himself.
At this time, Chilin staggered and jumped down from the bow of the boat, and with a bang, there was a lot of noise, attracting countless frightened eyes.
Where would such an amazing beast appear in this prosperous place on weekdays?
As soon as he landed, he raised his head to the sky and roared, which frightened many horses nearby.
Xu Chuan snorted lightly, and Chilin lowered his head, walked to his side with low eyebrows and became calm.
Seeing that this strange beast has a master, although the surrounding crowd is still frightened, there is a lot less panic, all of them are looking at the abnormal Chilin of the divine horse with different eyes, and they also have a little awe of the owner of this strange beast.
Xu Fengnian briefly introduced him, and Wang Linquan exclaimed: "But the king of Qingcheng is in person? ”
These days, in addition to the news that the new head of Wudang has stepped into the sky, the replacement of King Qingcheng is the most exciting.
Although many people believed the contents of the edict of the Liyang Dynasty, there were also a small number of people who knew the truth of that day.
Wang Linquan is naturally also one of the insiders.
Not to mention killing a king with a different surname without authorization, the Liyang royal family has to come forward to appease him, which is not surprising.
Seeing Xu Chuan's simple response, Wang Linquan immediately knelt on the ground, and said gratefully: "Thank you Your Excellency King Qingcheng for your support to His Royal Highness the Prince all the way, I am really grateful!" ”
Xu Chuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes moved, and an invisible force held Wang Linquan up, and he said lightly: "It's just a transaction, I can't talk about gratitude, and my husband needs to do the same." ”
Wang Linquan didn't say much, he bowed a few more times, and then led everyone towards the courtyard of the Wang family.
The courtyard of the Wang family's residence is deep, with pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and a style of smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River.
After settling down in the residence, Jiang Ni followed Li Chungang to learn swords and practice calligraphy, while Xu Le went to take care of the two little tigers, Shu Xi recently broke through the King Kong realm, Xu Chuan gave her some new exercises and cheats, and she was also practicing and comprehending, and for a while, Xu Chuan himself became a lonely man with nothing to do.
At this time, someone spread the word, saying that Xu Fengnian invited him to the restaurant for tea.
Xu Chuan was bored, so he also accepted this invitation, and followed the servant all the way out of the Wang family's courtyard and went to the restaurant.
Entering the gate and going up to the top floor, I saw a little girl opposite Xu Fengnian who was making tea, her every move was quite pleasing to the eye, and as soon as Fang sat down, Xu Fengnian introduced with a smile: "At this time, Wang Linquan's queen of boudoir is in early winter, and boiling tea is a must in this radius of a hundred miles, and Mr. will know it as soon as he tastes it." ”
The brief clash on Qingcheng Mountain that day seemed to have never happened at this moment.
On the side, the blue bird stood in the middle of the two, with a straight face, looking ahead without squinting, and I don't know what attracted her.
Xu Chuan's face was calm, his eyes swept over the beautiful side face of the blue bird, and he casually took a cup of tea handed by Wang Chudong.
However, he had just picked up the teacup and smelled the tea, when a few pairs of young women walked out of the stairs not far away, looking at the brocade dresses, each more arrogant than the other.
Among them, the first young but full of official eunuchs saw Wang Chudong, his eyes changed, and he walked straight to talk, but he was the same as Wu Shizhen, only Wang Chudong was alone in his eyes, and he couldn't see the existence of those around her at all.
However, as soon as he got closer, he was blocked by Lu Qiantang, who was a little farther away.
Wang Chudong's face was not very good-looking, and Xu Fengnian whispered about the origin of these people,
At this time, although the man was stopped by Lu Qiantang, he did not have any radical actions, or rather, he did not have the confidence to act recklessly, at least, he watched people put down dishes, so he planned to explore the origin of these strange faces around Wang Chudong first.
However, when he opened his mouth, he could not make a sound at all.
He looked around in horror, and the other eunuchs were also like him, silent.
This terrifying scene immediately frightened many people.
However, Xu Chuan gently blew on the tea cup in his hand as if unconsciously, drank a sip of the world-famous Spring God Tea, and tasted it carefully.
Undoubtedly, this means of silence is what he did.
Among them, Lu Qiantang, Xu Fengnian, and Blue Bird, who knew Xu Chuan's strength, knew for the first time that it was this move.
For a while, all eyes fell on him.
It was the first time Wang Chudong saw such a strange scene, and when he saw Xu Fengnian and the others looking at the white-clothed boy who had just come, he also looked at him with a little curiosity and caution.
When the sweetness in his mouth gradually dissipated, Xu Chuan put down the teacup and praised Wang Chudong: "It's really good tea." ”
I didn't see how he moved, just heard the soft sound of the teacup falling to the ground, and the boys and brothers rolled down uncontrollably like a gourd as if they had received some instructions.
It wasn't until they left the teahouse with blue noses and swollen faces that they returned to normal, and they all spoke.
However, at this moment, they looked at each other, and the fear in their eyes was overflowing, and although they could speak, they were silent.
One by one, they didn't say anything, and left in embarrassment, as if only by returning to their familiar home as soon as possible could the frightened emotions be soothed.
On the top of the building, seeing Xu Fengnian and a few people looking at him, Xu Chuan chuckled and said, "It's just a little trick, I just don't want to affect the interest in drinking tea." ”
A little trick, the parties have said so, and they don't look like they have never seen the world, isn't it very unproductive?
can only retract his gaze, or drink tea, or be in a daze, or guard the door and do their own thing.
After drinking the tea, the few people parted.
Wang Chudong took Xu Fengnian to play on the big ao, Xu Chuan returned to Wang's house with the blue bird, and Lu Qiantang first.
After entering the Wang family courtyard, Lu Qiantang left first and went to his room, while Xu Chuan and Jade Bird continued to walk together for a while.
In the quiet courtyard, the two of them went one after the other, and the blue bird deliberately lagged two steps behind, as if he was quite afraid to walk side by side with Xu Chuan.
Passing by a rockery, Xu Chuan suddenly stopped, turned to look at the blue bird and said, "Your heart is beating so fast, but you're afraid of me?" ”
Blue Bird's heart tightened, with a cold face, and said with a blank look: "I'm not afraid of you." ”
Xu Chuan took a step forward, and she took a step back until she had her back against the rockery, and there was no way to retreat.
Xu Chuan put his hands on the rockery, surrounded the blue bird, bowed his head slightly, and said: "Since you are not afraid of me, why do you always avoid me and retreat again and again?" ”
Although the two did not touch at the moment, under such a distance, each other's breath was quite intimate.
She didn't feel that her cheeks were slightly red, and her heart was beating faster, but her expression was still as cold as ice.
She raised her head slightly, looked at Xu Chuan with her eyes, and said, "Mr. is self-respecting, although the blue bird is a maidservant, she will not be taken lightly." ”
She was silent for a moment, and then said word by word: "Blue Bird is born as a person of the world, and death is the ghost of the world, no matter what, he will not betray the son!" ”
Xu Chuan lowered his head and leaned over, only less than an inch between their lips and teeth.
The blue bird has a stubborn gaze and does not dodge at all.
It's like saying, I can't resist if you're strong, but that's not my will.
Xu Chuan looked at the blue bird deeply, did not continue to move forward, but said softly: "People, you shouldn't just live for others, you are unique, not anyone's accessory." ”
As the words fell, he slowly retreated and turned to leave.
The blue bird stood in place in a daze, and suddenly a feeling of loss suddenly arose in his heart.
Am I unique in his eyes?
Looking at Xu Chuan's back as she gradually moved away, she didn't feel that she was already stupid.
On the other side, on the Spring God Lake, with the moonlight, Xu Fengnian hugged Wang Chudong and the first spring dew.
After a night of silence and a day of stay, the group prepared to leave and go to Xiangfan.
This Xiangfan is known as a ghost city, and Zhao Heng, the king of Jing'an, is in charge on weekdays, but at this moment, Zhao Heng led the troops to the Shenhuang City in Chuzhou, so the top and bottom were handed over to Zhao Xun, the son of the king of Jing'an.
This Zhao Xun is feminine, the city is not shallow, insidious, cunning, moody, and invisible, and his ability is not inferior to his father Zhao Heng, and he is also quite famous in Qingzhou on weekdays.
Xu is brother surnamed Zhao was frightened that day, and he didn't look for trouble from Zhao Xun at this moment.
Of course, maybe he said it, but Zhao Xun didn't dare.
After all, in addition to Xu Fengnian, the son of Beiliang, there is also a new Qingcheng king with a different surname like a pig and a dog.
According to his identity, he, the son of King Jing'an, is a lot worse.
What's more, the other party even killed a king with a different surname in a fit of rage, if he provoked the other party in this world, he might not be able to save his life.
You must know that in addition to the identity of the king of Qingcheng, the other party also has the position of the dean of the martial arts academy, although it is a false position, but the record of killing the martial arts of the Heavenly Elephant Realm is really there.
Maybe the other party can't win the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses left in Qingzhou now, but if you take his head in the ten thousand troops, I'm afraid that it may not be impossible.
What's more, before Zhao Heng, the king of Jing'an, left the word stability behind, even if Zhao Xun had some thoughts, he didn't dare to act rashly.
As a result, Xu Chuan's journey seemed to be uneventful.
On the same day, four big ships docked, Xu Fengnian asked Ning Emei to lead a hundred phoenix battalions to stand by, and their party went straight to Xiangfan.
The address was modified for various reasons
