After having dinner with Brother Gongzi, Zhuge Chen walked drunkenly towards the City Lord's Mansion. After this meal, the two of them didn't say much, they couldn't talk about their own precautions, but they just didn't have the right temper. To put it cheesy, it is to look at each other without looking at each other.

Even though Brother Gongzi knew in his heart that if he could make friends with a young sword immortal, it would definitely benefit him a lot in the future, but he was already the son of the prime minister, what could he do with the other party? Could it be that he could go further and sit on that dragon chair? Even if the other party really wanted to help, Brother Gongzi would categorically refuse, after all, his father was notoriously steady, and he only did what he was confident about. He knows best what to do when and when, and not only has he not acted on his transgressions, but I am afraid that even such thoughts have never dared to be born.

And Zhuge Chen's idea is even simpler, what can the son of a prime minister do? To talk about business with him, at least it has to be a prince with a very special identity like Wanyan Qingqian, and what he plans is the ownership of the dragon chair, let alone be afraid of the prime minister.

Walking on the street, the people on both sides have turned off the lights and fallen asleep, although they don't know the time of day, but Zhuge Chen is not in a hurry. Anyway, before going out, the door of the house is not closed, and there is no need for a key to open the door. The high walls of the City Lord's Mansion seemed to him to be as flat as he was, and he didn't need to disturb the butler to open the door for him. What's more, Bai Yi didn't want to sleep at all even if he was sleepy now, so he leaned down and sat on the stone steps, supported his cheek with one hand, yawned, and raised his head to look at the sky.

The moonlight spread on his face, only to swallow him up as the clouds obscured him.

"Where is the moonlight?" muttered softly, and a sword qi came out from Zhuge Chen's fingertips, dispelling the dark clouds in the sky and letting the moonlight shine again.

At the end of the long street, someone made a night patrol, walking towards this side step by step, singing: "The weather is dry, be careful of the candles." ”

Although the voice was not loud, it was far away, and the eight characters were repeated, which made Zhuge Chen feel excited. He immediately stood up, and before he could descend the stone steps, he stumbled out of the door as someone pushed the door, and fell below.

The person who walked out from behind the door should have been from a family in the city, not only dressed beautifully, but also followed by a few guards, who passed by Zhuge Chen's side and directly ignored the white clothes. Not only that, but the leader sneered and said, "Where did this beggar come from?

Zhuge Chen sat up, dusted off his body, opened his eyes that were a little cloudy because of drunkenness, and said to himself: "I knew that I couldn't suppress my realm when I drank, and for this rare sense of wine, I will definitely not feel good tonight." ”

The man who didn't hear what Bai Yi was saying sneered, and then teased: "Don't get so close to me, I don't have anything to give you, so hurry up and get out of the way, don't get in the way in the middle of the road!"

He first ordered his subordinates to lift Zhuge Chen up, fell on the other side of the long street, and then walked in front and walked away with the guards.

A group of guards laughed and left Zhuge Chen's side, and the one who fell behind squatted beside Zhuge Chen, smelled Zhuge Chen's full body of wine, took out a not very precious hangover pill from his arms, and stuffed it in the palm of the white cloth.

"Old Qian, let's go, what are you doing there?" among the guards, someone seemed to notice that one person was missing, and after determining who it was, he turned around and shouted.

The guard, who was called Lao Qian, responded and got up to leave, without saying anything to Zhuge Chen.

Looking at the hangover pill in his hand, Zhuge Chen smiled slightly, and got up to leave.

......

Returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Zhuge Chen rode the wind with the help of his sword qi, and only then did he cross the high wall under his feet, and he fell straight and planted on the ground.

He didn't feel much pain, and walked slowly towards his house in the City Lord's Mansion, picking flowers and grass along the way, like a naughty child. On the other side of the house, an oil lamp was lit, and it was supposed that the crow had returned. He knocked on the door, and the crow walked out of it, and after sniffing out the strong smell of wine on the white clothes, he inevitably covered his nose and asked, "How much have you drunk? It is not necessary to drink hundreds of pots to make a sword immortal delirious?"

Zhuge Chen waved his hand and said, "Hundreds of pots...... Not really. But I suppressed my realm and sword qi, just a few pots, it's a bit much. ”

"Aren't you looking for unhappiness with yourself?" Crow frowned, helped Zhuge Chen into the room, and let him sit on the bed and lean on the futon, so that he could be more comfortable. Then he went to make tea, and he was busy, and finally let Zhuge Chen sleep with peace of mind.

After watching Bai Yi fall asleep, she walked out of the room, sat on a chair in the middle hall, and continued to sharpen her sword qi. Just turning her head, she saw two swords lying quietly on the chair beside her. Driven by curiosity, she wanted to see how far her "cheap master" had cultivated the sword qi, so she took the lead in holding the Sanchen sword in her arms, wanting to see it.

It was only when she took out the Sanchen sword from the scabbard half an inch, and the stars in the sky had already surrounded her, and the feeling that this moment brought to her was like being in a sea of stars, appreciating its endlessness at the same time, it also made her feel like she was in a dead place. If she hadn't retracted her sword very quickly, I'm afraid that the next moment, she would have been buried in the sea of stars. After all, Zhuge Chen had difficulty sleeping at this moment, and when he went to play chess with Zhou Gong, it was impossible to notice it at the first time and rescue him.

Escaping death, the crow, who was even more shocked, carefully put the Sanchen sword back in its place, and did not dare to touch Zhuge Chen's sword again, even if he looked at it, he was a little afraid. Of course, she also has a trace of fantasy in her heart, in the future, will she be able to achieve the same level as Zhuge Chen? If she wants to catch up with the young man in white, it is impossible in this life, but at the very least, the gap cannot continue to widen.

Because at the end of the day, she still has her own selfishness.

Once an assassin, he couldn't help himself, he didn't know when he would die, and his selfishness was just a joke. But now it's different, now that it's out of the dire straits, it's good to live over there. Practice sword practice and experience your own life.

Raven told herself, then glanced around the room, smiling though she didn't see the man. That's enough, the woman said to herself secretly.

......

In the early morning of the next day, Zhuge Chen, who had sobered up, got up early in the morning, and only felt refreshed. He first went to take a cool shower, washed away the unpleasant smell of alcohol after the night, changed into a white coat, and walked out of the room.

Last night, the crow had been in the middle hall to sharpen his sword qi, so he slept here. Zhuge Chen's footsteps were gentle, and he walked cautiously past him, and then picked up the two swords on the chair. Of course, he also noticed that the position of the Sanchen Sword had changed slightly, and when he was asleep last night, he was also vaguely aware of the stars, but he didn't take it seriously at the time, turned over, and continued to sleep. Now that I think about it, it should be a sign that the crow is pulling out the three stars.

Zhuge Chen smiled slightly, walked out of the house, stretched his waist, and walked along the stone path towards the city lord's mansion with a full expression.

On the way, Zhuge Chen met the housekeeper, he greeted him with a smile, and learned the news that Yang Qianqiu had woken up from the other party. If he hadn't drunk too much last night, Zhuge Chen would have brought two pots of wine over, but now he was a little disgusted when he looked at the transparent liquid, so he had to go empty-handed.

After saying hello to the maids in front of Yang Qianqiu's house, Zhuge Chen pushed the door and walked in. At a glance, I saw Yang Qianqiu sitting on a chair and drinking porridge. Under the greeting of the other party, after Zhuge Chen sat down, he picked up the empty bowl in front of him and began to eat.

"In the past two days that I have been in a coma, Zhuge have not walked around the city?" Yang Qianqiu asked.

Zhuge Chen took a chopstick pickle, spread it on the porridge, tasted it in small sips, and said: "I, the culprit who caused you to fall into a coma, have a bad conscience these days, how can I go out to hang out? All I can do is to pray to God and worship Buddha, and I hope you wake up one day earlier." ”

"Come less. Yang Qianqiu snorted coldly, and then continued: "What is not the culprit, it is divided." ”

"Yes. The two then looked at each other and laughed.

According to the previous thoughts, there are places left in Gangyang City where Zhuge Chen has not been before, and Yang Qianqiu will take him to see it next. In a short period of time, Bai Yi will not leave here, so there is no need to rush there. Besides, Yang Qianqiu has only just woken up, and his body has not yet recovered, although he is not weak. But if he leaves the root of the disease because of this, he will definitely suffer a lot when he comes to find him. Of course, Zhuge Chen would not want this, so he stopped it on the side. Hot e-books

Yang Qianqiu was not stubborn, and after a few words, he agreed. If you don't have a complete cultivation, you won't get out of the City Lord's Mansion. happened to return from a long trip, and he brought back a lot of unique books, which for Yang Qianqiu, who likes to read, to be able to enrich himself can be fascinated. It's just that Zhuge Chen's desire to practice swords is better than reading, not to mention that he is not a Confucian protégé, as soon as he heard the word "book", he felt a headache, and casually found an excuse, and in Yang Qianqiu's laughter and scolding, he ran away.

In the following half a day, Zhuge Chen stayed on the side of the City Lord's Mansion and did not go out.

In the evening, at the invitation of the housekeeper, he and Yang Qianqiu went to have dinner with the city lord, and after sitting down, Zhuge Chen, who didn't want to drink, also knew in his heart that I am afraid that today will be another time without getting drunk and not returning. Even if you play some tricks and use your sword qi to dissolve the power of alcohol, you don't dare to do it too obviously. Just when he was distressed, the housekeeper walked in and said respectfully: "Master, the Cao family in Nancheng came to visit...... You see?"

The city lord frowned, and said, "I forgot about this matter, so let the head of the Cao family come and eat some together!" Qianqiu Zhuge , are you two eating here, or are you going to an outside restaurant?"

Yang Qianqiu said that he was casual, although the City Lord's Mansion and the Cao family in Nancheng were old friends, but he didn't want to abandon Zhuge Chen because of this. It's a big deal to say hello and leave after a few small talks.

"I'm staying here, there's no problem, right?" asked Zhuge Chen.

"What's the problem?" Yang Qianqiu said with a smile: "Uncle Cao has a very good relationship with my father, and he doesn't care about these trivial matters. Besides, this kind of situation has not happened in the past, and Uncle Cao has also met a lot of my friends, and he is used to it. Otherwise, Zhuge you should stay here and eat, you have to wait for a while to go to the restaurant, and it is just right for Uncle Cao to take a look, our current vision, so that he will always make fun of me about this matter. ”

"Qianqiu!" the city lord frowned and spoke.

"Dad, don't worry, I still know how to be proportionate. When the time comes, it will be nothing more than saying good things to Uncle Cao, ignoring Cao Hui's bastard, and praising Cao Yu's sister a few more words, and there will be no unpleasantness. Subsequently, Yang Qianqiu explained to Zhuge Chen: "Uncle Cao is kind-hearted, although his family is rich, but like my father, he is a person who can take into account the suffering of the people of Li, so in this Gangyang City, he also has the title of a good person." It's just that Cao Hui is used to being arrogant, and he looks like a commanding man to everyone. When I was young, because I couldn't get used to seeing him like that, I didn't beat him less, but in the end it still didn't change, and I got rid of the virtue of eating and not remembering. How can it be compared to Sister Cao Yu, she is beautiful and kind-hearted, don't say it's me, I'm afraid Zhuge will feel like this when you see it. ”

Zhuge Chen only smiled at this and didn't say much. Of course, he is also sober in his heart, it is really "the road of endless people", it seems that today's wine game can escape. Although the monk can't run the temple, but after two days, after this wine, he is a hero who can't pour a thousand cups!

After a while, the three members of the Cao family walked into the middle hall. The city lord stepped forward and invited the head of the Cao family to take a seat, and then said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, but Brother Cao's complexion is better." It seems that these days, not only is life good, but there is nothing worth worrying about. ”

"Brother Yang is the same, I wanted to visit a few days ago, but I heard that Qianqiu has returned from a long trip, and you father and son must have a lot to say, so I won't join in this fun. So today, I counted the time and went to visit, just in time, to earn a meal for nothing. The head of the Cao family smiled and nodded.

It can be seen that the relationship between the city lord and the head of the Cao family is indeed extraordinary. The two of them are characters standing at the top in Gangyang City, but they can joke because of a meal, it can't be a weak friendship between Pingshui and Pingshui. Zhuge Chen listened to the conversation between the two, and when he raised his head, he found that the person sitting next to him was a little familiar. If you think about it carefully, it turned out to be the one who insulted her beggar late last night. It's just that looking at the other party's appearance, it shouldn't be that they don't recognize themselves.

The head of the Cao family turned around and said to Yang Qianqiu: "Qianqiu, is there anything interesting about this trip? Tell Uncle Cao, my Cao Hui always dislikes me for being old and useless, and I don't understand anything, so I have to know more about your young people!"

Yang Qianqiu politely replied: "Where is Uncle Cao old? Who wants to say that, I am the first to disagree." What Cao Hui said must be a joke, but don't take it to heart. This trip down, in the final analysis, is just to see the scenery, there is nothing worth talking about, the only thing that makes me feel very good, it can only be said that I made this confidant friend named Zhuge Chen. ”

Zhuge Chen, who suddenly heard his name, didn't have time to swallow the meat in his mouth, so he raised his head and looked at Yang Qianqiu blankly. He frowned in surprise, as if to say that the two of you will reminisce about the old days, what are you doing with me? In case I am recognized by the person named Cao Hui, if I should not be arrogant in the past, continue to stir up trouble, will the sword on my waist be unsheathed or unsheathed?

Yang Qianqiu, who saw that Zhuge Chen didn't want to be in the limelight, continued: "Uncle Cao, this is the confidant I talked about, maybe I just saw you a little nervous, maybe it will be fine after a while." ”

The head of the Cao family also said empathetically: "Young people, it's normal to be afraid of life, and it's not necessarily a bad thing. Look at my Cao Hui, who does he look like that, even in front of my father, I haven't seen how polite he is. ”

Cao Hui put down the wine glass and said, "Father, you can talk as you talk, what do you take me for?"

The head of the Cao family had to laugh dryly twice, and continued to chat with the city lord. And Yang Qianqiu didn't know what to say to Cao Yu, one of them laughed, and the other pursed his lips and smiled, which made Zhuge Chen also curious. The main thing is that Cao Hui, who was sitting next to him, had no one to talk to him, and it seemed that he couldn't bear the loneliness, so he turned his eyes and began to look at him.

At first, it was okay, after all, everyone would be curious, and it was okay to look at the two of them more, but the sight was always there, which was a little rude. Zhuge Chen turned his head and said to Cao Hui with a smile: "Master Cao Hui, why are you staring at me like this." I don't have as much food as the food on the table, and I can't fill my stomach. ”

"I didn't look at you, you're a little too self-conscious. I just want to know what kind of garbage Yang Qianqiu picked up when he returned from this trip, and the most important thing is that he still has a treasure in his heart. He is so stupid, he deserves to be stabbed in the back all the time. Cao Hui gently shook the wine glass in his hand, as if he could grasp everything. As everyone knows, Zhuge Chen has seen too many such people, so he doesn't pay attention to him at all. Just let him say, the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, anyway, he can't do without two taels of meat.

Cao Hui saw that Zhuge Chen was full of energy, and he was not moved at all, but he did not give up, and then continued: "You people, what you want most is to ascend to the sky in one step. It's a pity that I can't get home in reincarnation, so what should I do? I can only hope to get to know a child of a family, to put it bluntly, Yang Qianqiu is just a tool in your heart. After many years, the goal has been achieved, and it will not be a pity to abandon it. ”

Zhuge Chen suddenly smiled and said, "Could it be that you really think that your ability to reincarnate is very good and worth showing off?" It turns out that the family in the world, the peak is out of Gangyang Beicheng, and the most in Beicheng belongs to the Cao family. Today I can be regarded as a teacher, thank you Cao Gongzi. ”

The two were at loggerheads, and only they could hear each other just talking.

Unexpectedly, Cao Hui couldn't do kung fu, and he didn't know the word patience, so he immediately took out a dagger he was carrying, and leaned into Zhuge Chen: "Do you have the courage to say the same words again?"

"The best son of the family, just this little ability, will only threaten others? No wonder you want to add the most word in the front, it turns out that it is not more than the upper than the bottom, but pure inferiority. In Zhuge Chen's loud laughter, Cao Hui had already stabbed with a dagger.

Yang Qianqiu was the first to notice, and immediately broke off: "Cao Hui, what are you going to do, stop it!"

Cao Hui replied with a sneer: "This kid dares to insult me, don't blame me for killing him, if you want to blame him, it can only be his own mouth!"

"It seems that it's not just inferiority.,The ability to talk nonsense is also good.。 Zhuge Chen narrowed his eyes, stretched out his hand, and stopped the dagger with only two fingers. Then with a slight force, the dagger was immediately broken by him: "I thought that the family background could open my eyes, but it seems that it is just that." Then I have to apologize to Cao Hui and Cao Gongzi first, it was not my intention to break it, I was really in a panic and thought that you were going to take my life, purely for self-protection, and I hope you don't want to be surprised. If I really can't think it's okay, then I can only bear the pain and pay you the only three taels of silver I have left. But don't dislike less, after all, we can't compare to a big family like the Cao family, so it's the limit. ”

Cao Yu blinked his smart eyes and burst out laughing after hearing this. Because Cao Hui is used to being arrogant, the relationship between their brother and sister is not good, at this moment Cao Yu held back his whisper and said softly to Yang Qianqiu: "You friend, you are too yin and yang to speak, right? But I like it when I can see Cao Hui eating deflated!"

Yang Qianqiu said helplessly: "I said Miss Cao Yu, no matter how you say that it is also your home, you really have no mustard?"

"I'm glad I did. Cao Yu said.

Also attracted by this farce were naturally the city lord and the head of the Cao family, of course the city lord would not watch Cao Hui being beaten to death by Zhuge Chen of the Sword Immortal Realm, so he said: "You two, what are you doing, there is something to say, and it is not small, why do you have to fight?" and in the middle hall, I don't feel ashamed. ”

Zhuge Chen, who knew the city lord's intentions, immediately said: "I'm sorry city lord, I thought too little. He threw away the fragment of the dagger in his hand and sat down to continue eating and drinking.

However, Cao Hui was not afraid of death, and in anger, he directly lifted the table, pointed at Zhuge Chen's nose and said, "Let me tell you, we have settled this feud today." If you can walk out of Gangyang City safe and sound, Lao Tzu will have your surname!"

Zhuge Chen smiled, and then said: "Forget it, I'm Zhuge in the same vein, but I don't have a son like you." ”

Bai Yi looked at the table turned over, and it was a pity that the plate was shattered, and sighed and used the gap flying sword to restore it to the way it was at the beginning.
