Chapter 21: The Journey
Xu Luo raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It won't be because of me." ”
As soon as these words came out, including Huangfu Chongzhi, the brothers all looked at Xu Luo with disbelief.
Liu Feng pouted: "Don't say it for the time being, but the phoenix is definitely coming for you!"
Several other people nodded one after another, and Sui Yan, who had not spoken, said: "I think so too, last time I was in Fengyue Tower, Phoenix's attitude towards the third brother was very different. ”
"Uh-huh. Liu Feng nodded vigorously: "I think, maybe that chick has taken a fancy to our third brother!"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not a wind boy......"
Xu Luo pursed his lips, but he secretly thought in his heart: It is absolutely impossible to fall in love with me, but it is not impossible to come to me. It seems that the Star Festival failed, but I suddenly changed my physique, after all, there are people who have a heart and doubt me. During this time, I want to keep a low profile. Especially the ** of breaking the army and killing seven times, it is better not to show it in front of everyone.
"Either way, I don't think they have any ill intentions. Huangfu Chongzhi said with a deep groan.
Xu Jie and the others also nodded.
"By the way, does the eldest brother know about the medicinal herbs in the Black Forest?" Xu Luo lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly asked.
Huangfu Chongzhi was slightly stunned, looked at Xu Luo and said, "It's okay, what are you going to do?"
"I want to go to the Black Forest to experience it, and collect some medicinal herbs by the way, but I don't know many medicinal herbs...... Xu Luo said with a smile.
"Are you going to the Black Forest?" Xu Jie raised his head when he heard this, looked at Xu Luo and frowned: "Third child, do you know what kind of place Lu Dao is?"
"Yes, that place is mixed, not to mention that the Black Forest itself is full of dangers, just those adventurers and lone rangers, none of them are good people, why would you suddenly want to experience that kind of place?" Huangfu Chongzhi's voice was gentle, and his face showed worry.
"Don't worry, I'm so old, I'll protect myself. Xu Luo said.
It's just that his words can't really reassure Huangfu Chongzhi and others, in the eyes of Huangfu Chongzhi and Xu Jie, Xu Luo is like an ignorant aristocratic teenager, who feels that if he puts on the clothes of an adventurer and carries a sword on his back, he can go out to practice, but he doesn't understand the sinister ......
"Third child, I suggest you don't go to that kind of place, if you really want to experience, didn't my aunt arrange an academy for you? After entering the academy, you can participate in the training activities organized by the academy, you can not only get experience, but also ensure safety. Xu Jie suggested with a serious face.
"That's right, you'd better not go to a place like the Black Forest, although your physique has changed now and you can cultivate, but your current strength ......" Huangfu Chongzhi didn't say more, but several people understood what he meant.
"Third brother, to go to the Black Forest, you need at least the strength of a high-level swordsman, and if it is a person, even if it is a high-level swordsman, if you encounter danger, you will die for a lifetime. Sui Yan was more direct and said what Huangfu Chongzhi didn't say.
Xu Luo was slightly moved in his heart, only his best brother would talk to him like this. If it were someone else: what does it matter to me whether you live or die?
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't go alone to the Black Forest this time, there are two very good adventurers, I will follow them. Xu Luo said, and the faces of the two people in the West Market came to mind.
"Excellent adventurer, how come we don't know that you still know this kind of person?" Liu Feng looked at Xu Luo with a puzzled expression.
Xu Luo nodded and said, "Moreover, in fact, you also understand that only when you really go through the test of life and death will you really grow up." ”
"This thing...... Auntie didn't object?" Huangfu Chongzhi suddenly asked.
Xu Luo nodded: "My mother didn't object." ”
"That'...... So be it. Huangfu Chongzhi took out a book from his body, handed it to Xu Luo and said, "This is a manuscript, it is some of my experiences over the years, you can take it." ”
"Big Brother ......" Liu Feng and Sui Yan and others were still a little unwilling, they really didn't worry about letting Xu Luo enter the Black Forest alone.
"Since my aunt has already agreed to this, I believe in the third child. Xu Jie said on the side.
Although Liu Feng and Sui Yan were puzzled, when they saw that the two big ones had agreed to this matter, they were unwilling, but they couldn't say anything.
Huangfu Chongzhi and Xu Jie told Xu Luo a lot of things that need to be paid attention to when going out to practice, and then they left together.
......
"Big brother, second brother, why are you so relieved to let the third brother go to the Black Forest? That kind of place is not suitable for the third brother at all!" As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Xu Mansion, Liu Feng couldn't help but ask.
"That's right, the third brother refused me to ask for leave to accompany him, in case something happened......" Sui Yan said in a sullen voice.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine. Xu Jie waved his hand and said with an affirmative expression.
"Since the aunt and aunt of the Xu family can agree, it should be fine. Huangfu Chongzhi said with a smile, but a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart: Third child, the star festival failed...... Is it really your fault?
It's just that this kind of thing, when you think of it, you think of it, and if you can't think of it, even if you are like a brother, it's impossible to talk nonsense.
Therefore, although Sui Yan and Liu Feng looked puzzled, Huangfu Chongzhi and Xu Jie didn't say much.
......
"Mother, Sister Ripples, I'm leaving, you can rest assured, I will take care to protect myself. Xu Luo was wearing a strong suit and looked heroic.
"Well, it's not the same outside as it is at home, so you have to be careful. Luo Xinlan's eyes were full of reluctance, but she still smiled and patted her son's shoulder.
There was a mist condensing in the ripple eyes, and he said softly: "Protect yourself and come back early." ”
"Don't worry, I'm strong!" Xu Luo smiled, didn't talk any more nonsense, turned around, and strode away without looking back.
At the door of the back door of the Xu Mansion, Luo Xinlan and Ripple watched Xu Luo's back disappear at the end of the long street with a reluctant face.
......
Imperial capital.
In an ordinary restaurant.
Wei Ziting sat alone in the private room, the table was full of various delicacies, and there was fine wine in front of him.
It's like waiting for someone.
A moment later, two middle-aged men came in, burly, with a murderous aura between their eyebrows, walking like a tiger, giving people a very dangerous feeling.
As soon as the two entered the house, they sat casually opposite Wei Ziting.
One of the middle-aged men said lightly: "Wei Shao is in such a hurry to find our brother, is there anything wrong?"
Wei Ziting's eyes were well hidden, and he said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss it a little, so I invite the two of you to come over for a glass of wine." ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he picked up the wine glass that was already full in front of him, drank it all, and then put down the wine glass and said, "After drinking, let's talk." ”
Wei Ziting laughed dryly, then took out a silver ticket from his arms and slowly pushed it down in front of the two middle-aged people opposite.
The eyes of the two middle-aged people fell on the silver ticket, their breathing was slightly short, and they both withdrew their gazes.
The middle-aged man who had just spoken narrowed his eyes, looked at Wei Ziting coldly, and said, "Wei Shao, this is?"
"Kill someone, these are deposits!" Wei Ziting smiled calmly, as if he didn't see the sharp gaze of the two middle-aged people on the other side.
"This is not the first time we have cooperated, Wei Shao should know the rules of our brothers. After hearing that this silver ticket was just a deposit, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be a little surprised, and his attitude eased a little.
"Of course, how could I break your rules. Wei Ziting smiled faintly and said: "As long as you follow him, if he stays away from the imperial capital, I believe that with the strength of your two brothers, it is not a problem to create the scene of accidental death." ”
"Who is that person?" the middle-aged man asked slowly after exchanging glances with the person beside him.
"A teenager. Wei Ziting smiled and said, "A young man who is very weak, but his identity is somewhat sensitive. ”
The two middle-aged people frowned one after another, and the middle-aged man who was talking to Wei Ziting held down the silver ticket of 10,000 taels, and was about to push it back, and said lightly: "We can't afford to kill people with status!"
Another middle-aged man also spoke: "Also, Wei Shao, I think it is necessary to emphasize our rules to you again......
"Don't kill three, aren't you?" Wei Ziting smiled and interrupted the middle-aged man's words: "People in the imperial capital don't kill, people who don't have evil don't kill, and women don't kill." But don't you want to hear who that person is?"
Wei Ziting was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Xu Ji's second son, Xu Luo!"
Hiss!
The two middle-aged men couldn't help but be taken aback, and their eyes were full of anger when they looked at Wei Ziting.
"Wei Shao wants us to kill the son of the general of the Zhenguo......? We can't afford to make money, and today our brothers have never been here. ”
The middle-aged man's voice became cold, he pushed the silver ticket back, stood up, and was about to leave.
Wei Ziting sat there and said lightly: "The hatred back then, can you two really forget it? ”
"You...... Do you dare to check our details?" The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly shot out two strong murderous auras, staring at Wei Ziting.
Wei Ziting smiled: "Your background is fine...... How secretive is it? In this world, there is no secret, which I Wei Ziting can't find, and the reason why I found you to do this is to give you a chance to take revenge. If you don't want to do it, then just leave it as if you're not here today. ”
The two middle-aged men stared at Wei Ziting, and no one dared to take this seriously.
After a long time, the middle-aged man who had not spoken slowly spoke, his voice was hoarse and ugly, like the sound of broken glass: "Big brother, in order to wait for this day, our brother has been waiting for several years, and it is time to collect some interest from the Xu family!"
"Second brother, if we really do this, I'm afraid that in this life, there will be no chance for revenge, and from now on we will die in the world!"
And another middle-aged man, his eyes flashed with crazy hatred, and he sneered: "Big brother, if we don't do this thing, will we have a chance to take revenge?"
Wei Ziting sat there, quietly watching the two brothers arguing, at this time, from his arms, he took out a silver ticket again, and said lightly: "That's it, a total of 20,000 taels of silver, I will trust you once, kill someone, just take the money, and go to other countries to live a stable life." Your great revenge, maybe one day, I will avenge you. ”
The two brothers were stunned and looked at Wei Ziting.
Wei Ziting smiled faintly: "Destroying the Xu family is not just the idea of the two of you. ”
The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but turn around, grabbed the two huge silver tickets on the table, gritted his teeth and said, "Give me the specific route, and the portrait of that person!"
