Chapter 160: Retirement
Asking Huo Xu to help was something that Lu Sangjiu had been thinking about last time, but he didn't know how much he said before, so he didn't speak rashly.
But now that he learned Huo Xu's identity from Xiang Qian, Lu Sangjiu knew that there was a play, and he just happened to get Huyue sake, so he borrowed flowers to offer Buddha.
Lu Sangjiu's participation in the Sword Capture Conference this time is to get back the Batu Knife, if you can take it quietly, it will be the best, but if you can't...... I'm afraid it will cause some turmoil at that time.
Duan Xingyun hasn't woken up yet, she doesn't have the support of her master, and Bai Heng has a lot of opinions about her.
Among those present, Jian Wugui may be reluctant to stand on her side, but it is far from enough.
So she has to find another backer for herself, and now it seems that Huo Xu is a good candidate.
Lu Sang's words were light, and it sounded like a very relaxing thing.
But Huo Xu is not a fool, if it were really easy, would she be willing to give up a pot of moon sake?
So he asked, "When you say that, are you thinking about what you want to cause trouble?" ”
"Don't think too much about me, it's okay to simply maintain a sentence or two, but if you get into a big disaster, I can't help you."
Lu Sangjiu suddenly looked aggrieved and innocent, "What did the senior say?" I've always been well-behaved and sensible, and the few times I made trouble in Mochizuki Tower, it was someone else who came to provoke me, when did you see me taking the initiative to cause trouble? ”
Huo Xu thought about it for a while, it seemed that this was really the case, but it was just ...... Well-behaved and sensible?
He glanced at Lu Sangjiu with disgust, "If you are well-behaved and sensible, then there is no one who is not well-behaved!" ”
Don't think he didn't hear her talking to her sister about selling people to the mines, and he lost a little bit.
Lu Sangjiu didn't blush when he said this, but continued to say in a good voice, "Aren't I just afraid that Yi Ze and Bai Heng's master and apprentice will find an opportunity to embarrass me." ”
"No matter how you say it, it's also the home of the Golden and Silver Gate, senior, behind you is the Elder Taishang of the Merge Period, it's not a difficult thing to help me preside over justice when necessary, right?"
Huo Xu thought for a moment, and finally replied cautiously, "I can only promise you, if you are treated unfairly, I will help you, but if you take care of your own losses, don't expect me to speak for you." ”
"Deal!"
Lu Sangjiu immediately nodded in agreement, and couldn't wait to stuff the moon sake into Huo Xu's hand.
"Then we'll settle it, seniors drink slowly, I won't bother you first!"
Watching Lu Sangjiu slip away quickly, Huo Xu frowned, "Tsk...... Why do you feel cheated? ”
He hesitated for a moment, suddenly took out the tortoise shell, and muttered in his mouth: "No, I'll give her a hexagram first!" ”
Fortune tellers can't count themselves, so he can only start from Lu Sangjiu to assess whether he will get into trouble.
When Lu Sang could test the good luck and evil of the next month, he was stunned to find out...... I can't measure it!
Not only could it not be measured, but even the tortoise shell that had been with him for a long time was directly cracked.
Huo Xu was stunned for a moment, "This ...... Who the hell is she? ”
What he can't count is either a person who has cultivated to an extremely high level or someone who has no life.
It is said that the fate is determined by the number of days, and if someone leaves the trajectory of the destiny, the fate is self-determined, then his future is only known to himself.
After a long time, Huo Xu couldn't help muttering, "This little girl...... What a surprise. ”
However, he was a little more interested in Lu Sang wine.
looked at the moon sake in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't choose to send it back to her.
"It's always admirable to be able to change your life, and you probably don't see this kind of person a few times in your life...... If you can help, you should help. ”
With a sigh, Huo Xu raised his head and took a sip of wine, "It's really moon sake...... What wine! ”
Here, when Lu Sangjiu returned to the private room, everyone was drinking to their heart's content.
As soon as he turned around and found that only Lu Sangjiu had returned, Luo Linlang couldn't help but wonder, "What about the monk?" ”
"Gone."
Lu Sangjiu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about him, let's continue to drink." ”
Her tone was light, but Luo Linlang vaguely felt that she might be really angry, so she didn't ask any more questions, and revealed the matter with a haha.
Yan Zui was drunk at this time, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he hooked Lu Sangjiu's neck to his side.
"Look, your name is wine, I call it drunk, the two of us are destined to be fateful!"
"Don't you really think about going with me to Huanzong? How nice it would be to be my sister! ”
Lu Sang wine: "......"
That's really a lot of drinking.
She was about to speak, but Luo Linlang stopped doing it, her eyes widened, "You dare to want to kidnap my little junior sister in front of me?" Want to fight, don't you! ”
Yan Zui raised his eyebrows, "Is Luo Daoyou not confident, I'm afraid that Xiaojiu will choose me as my senior sister?" ”
Luo Linlang suddenly exploded, "Why do you call my little junior sister so affectionate?" I've never even ordered a drink! ”
Lu Sang wine: "......"
So, can she make women jealous of her? Is her "green tea" a little too successful?
Of course, it was impossible to go to Hehuan Sect, Lu Sangjiu had to politely refuse Yan Zui, and appeased Luo Linlang a few words, which made both of them shut up.
Yan Zui was a little disappointed, but he didn't force it anymore, he just got up and said, "I met some new friends today, and I had a lot of fun, but I have some other things tomorrow and can't continue." ”
"Fellow Daoists, if you have the opportunity to visit my Hehuan Sect in the future, remember to contact me!"
left a messenger with everyone, and Yan Zui left alone.
The rest drank until late at night, and then dispersed.
The next day, Lu Sangjiu and Luo Linlang both slept until noon, and when they packed up and went to the venue, the first round of the competition was nearing the end.
Towards the evening, after the last group of competitions, the talents of the Golden and Silver Gate announced the details of tomorrow's battle.
To put it simply, the winner of the first round needs to take turns to defend the game, and the loser can take the stage to challenge.
If the attack is successful, the original person will be replaced, and the player will continue to defend until someone successfully defends five times, and then automatically enter the next round.
However, everyone only has one chance to challenge, and if they fail, they will completely miss this sword competition.
The last game was a test of luck, and this one is a real test of strength.
Of course, Lu Sangjiu was not worried about himself, but was a little worried about Gu Jue.
He was injured yesterday and doesn't know what happened, will the battle be affected tomorrow?
After hesitating for a moment, she finally held back and didn't ask...... Anyway, even if it has an impact, she can't help him, and she will naturally know tomorrow.
But Lu Sangjiu didn't expect that the next day he heard the news of Gu Jue's withdrawal.
This is what Luo Linlang told her after she found out at the Jindan period venue, "Gu Jue didn't show up, and he didn't return to Jianzun to announce his retirement on his behalf, do you know what happened?" ”
