Volume 2: Xizhou Chapter 111: It's another time of autumn
The roars of the beasts outside came and went, and a bright moon shone on the sky.
In the midst of a Jedi, an old man covered in blood sat quietly in a valley, a medicinal herb in front of him emitting a faint starlight.
Oh~
An earth-shattering roar sounded, and a giant black wolf looked at the old man in the valley with a fierce look in his eyes. A wolf's claw slapped at the old man like a huge silver hook in the moonlight.
The gray aura wrapped around the wolf's claws, as if it were about to shatter everything.
Whew~
But before the wolf's claws approached the old man, a layer of transparent ripples emerged, and the wolf's claws seemed to touch the hardest wall in the world, and the piercing sound of friction echoed in the valley.
The black giant wolf saw that this claw had no effect, and his eyes showed a look of thought that can only be found in human eyes.
Knock, knock, knock......
Just as the giant wolf was thinking, suddenly the entire upper valley began to shake violently.
It was a huge ape more than ten feet tall, breathing heavily, the air in and out of its nose was like two white air dragons, and several blood marks on its body that were deep and visible to the bones represented that it had just experienced a fierce battle.
The giant ape ignored the giant wolf on the side, staring at the humans in the valley, his eyes burning with anger.
"Let's retreat! This thing is decayed! With this gap between heaven and earth in the way, don't waste your efforts!" The old man who was originally meditating quietly was disturbed by these two behemoths and slowly opened his eyes, and an inexplicable qi flowed in his eyes.
With that, the old man swallowed the herb in front of him in one gulp.
Oh!
When the two behemoths saw that the old man had been waiting for countless years of medicinal herbs being eaten by the humans in front of them, they suddenly roared angrily, and the earth-shattering killing intent erupted, and then the entire valley began to tremble continuously, and countless weak creatures hiding in the caves outside the valley began to tremble.
Yanji Mountain, on the top of the cliff, a small figure sat under an ancient tree, a faint spiritual power surrounded him, and his brows were tightly knit on his young face, serious and resolute.
In the distance, an old man and a middle-aged man were playing against each other, but the chess table was a large tree stump, on which different lines outlined the chessboard. The old man's face was tense, obviously stumped by the chess, and the hand holding the chess piece did not fall in mid-air for a long time.
There is a small wooden house in the distance, a middle-aged man is roasting meat in front of the door, the faint fragrance of resin burning and the smell of fragrant meat wafting between the mountains and fields, the mountains are dyed with this smoke and fire, and suddenly there is a trace of inexplicable charm. There is also a small wooden table in front of the wooden house, and there are several small wooden benches next to the table, and the surface of the bench is quite rough. One of these wooden stools is exceptionally small. On the table were some fresh wild fruits, apparently freshly picked.
After a while, the man who was barbegging meat wiped the fine sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, sniffed the food, and smiled with satisfaction on his face. So he moved the table in the corner to a relatively flat place next to the fire, took three slightly larger stools, and carried the tiny, very small stool.
After everything was arranged, the man looked at the two people who were playing chess not far away and shouted: "Huang Lao, Songya, have dinner." ”
The old man's hand finally landed in the air, but instead of dropping the piece in his hand, he took away the whole game.
"The meal has arrived, and it will be served tomorrow. A triumphant smile appeared on his face as he spoke. Thanks to Xing Sanhe, he called for dinner early, and this hand was raised for half an hour. If Xing Sanhe doesn't shout, this chess will not be taken away, and this hand will not be able to be put down.
"Hey! Eating is eating, Huang Lao doesn't have to collect chess, I have waited for ten days and a half in the mountains and wilderness, and there is no shadow of me in this mountain and wilderness, even if I continue to play tomorrow, there will be no hindrance. ”
Songya Dao people were unhappy, and when they got into the chess game, they naturally had a competitive heart, but this halfway chess destroyed the chessboard, it was really ...... The more Songya Daoist thought about it, the more blocked his heart became.
"Hey, this chess piece can be placed, but if a small animal messes up the chess pieces, it will not be clear, why not simply accept it, so as not to remember him in my heart at night." The old man won't remember it, but you can't!"
As he spoke, Huang Lao trembled and walked towards the small figure meditating in the distance.
Songya Daoist didn't want to listen to Huang Lao's words, Fang didn't understand Huang Lao's doorway when he started playing chess with Huang Lao, but after playing for a long time, he knew that Huang Lao was actually cheating.
This is not once or twice, many times when the chess is about to lose, Huang Lao will hold the chess pieces in the air, and it will be a long time to hold it in one fell swoop, and the longest time to raise it for several hours.
This is not counted, the main thing is not to urge, as soon as I urge this old man, I will count you impatient, and talk to you about the big truth.
Songya Taoist people also like Huang Lao to be reasonable, and many times he has benefited a lot, but in hindsight, he still has a lot of words about Lai Qi's approach, but he is orderly and young, and many times he turns a blind eye.
There is nothing in the mountains, but it is good to be able to pull the skin. If you ask for immortals all day long, you are also extremely tired. Pine Cliff shook his head as usual, then put this thought behind him, turned and walked towards the wooden house, helping Xing Sanhe with the food.
When you play against each other, don't be nostalgic for the game when you play it. Life is like a dream, and the game is like nothing.
The small figure was still sitting under the ancient tree, Huang Lao stepped forward, and noticed that someone was coming, and a pair of bright eyes opened on his little face.
"Lanlan, I'm eating, I'm practicing tomorrow. "Old Huang is rickety.
"I'm super hungry, and Daddy's cooking time is getting later and later!"
The small figure stood up from under the ancient tree and patted off a yellow leaf that had fallen from the ancient tree.
"Hehehe, it's not that your father is cooking late, but Xinglan's cultivation is getting more and more progressive, and the energy consumption is greater than before. ”
This little guy had already started his cultivation a month ago, and finally began to perceive the aura a few days ago, which made Huang Lao quite pleased. touched Xinglan's head, and led Xinglan towards the cabin.
A remnant sun hung on the mountain to the west, and there was no temperature. An old man and a young man walked in the cold light of the sunset, and Xinglan's childish and excited voice kept surrounding the rickety Huang Lao, sending the cold sunset away in Huang Lao's reply of "Okay, good ......".
The trees on both sides have turned yellow, and before you know it, it is autumn again.
Leaving the country, Wuzhou City. A middle-aged man was drinking tea in the courtyard, watching the ginkgo biloba trees in the courtyard withering, and he was distracted when he looked at it.
"Big brother, the weather is much colder, I specially bought you a good mink coat in Tianfangpu, you try to fit it or not!"
This small courtyard is the courtyard of Li Wei, the leader of the Salted Fish Gang, but now this choice has been expanded many times, and there are many flowers and plants and dozens of ginkgo trees planted in the courtyard. There is no other reason, just because it is the yard of the leader of the Salted Fish Gang, so it is natural to be a little more generous.
The Salted Fish Gang is no longer the small gang of seven or eight people a few years ago, but the largest gang force in Wuzhou City. The underworld and the white way, all of them are polite to the Salted Fish Gang. The prestige of the four masters of the Salted Fish Gang resounded throughout Wuzhou.
Li Wei, the leader of the gang, Bai Jiu, the second leader, Di Qing, the third leader, and Wang Han, the fourth leader.
The first three celebrities and rich people in Wuzhou have all seen it, but they have never seen the four leaders of the Salted Fish Gang, so all kinds of speculations were born in the city.
Some say that there is no such person in the Salted Fish Gang, and some say that these four masters are old monsters with martial arts, and some people say that these four masters are handsome descendants, but they have become immortals. Over time, everyone's curiosity was gone, so no one mentioned the matter of this four-man who had never shown up.
"Let it go, third brother, where did the second brother go?" Li Wei, who was broken by Di Qing, did not have any displeasure, sighed in his mouth, and looked at his more mature third brother, and laughed in his heart.
"The second brother went to the field to deal with the affairs of the gang, and a group of robbers robbed the goods of the gang. ”
Di Qing replied truthfully, since last year, this eldest brother has not paid much attention to the affairs of the gang, but Di Qing still comes to visit every few days to report the things in the gang by the way.
The two talked for a long time, and drank some strong wine, but Di Qing, who had always drunk the least, drank the most this time.
Bowl after bowl, Li Wei raised his eyebrows slightly. After drinking a bowl of wine in his mouth, Li Wei shook his head and smiled bitterly, and then followed the bowl by bowl.
When the wine came up, Di Qing's head was a little dazed, holding the bowl, but there was no wine in the bowl but he didn't know it.
"Big brother, I will be married to Ting'er in a few days......" Ting'er Li Wei in Di Qing's mouth naturally knew that she was the daughter of a common family in the city, and she was handsome. The reason why the marriage between the two was able to succeed was because Li Wei went to mention it.
"It's a good thing, it's time to have a family. Li Wei is sincerely happy for this third brother, and now the sphere of influence of the Salted Fish Gang is many times larger than before, and it is also a career.
"But ......"
"No, but. ”
Di Qing still wanted to speak, but was blocked back. So one of them took an empty bowl, and the other took a full bowl of wine, and drank it all by this autumn color.
Looking at Di Qing who was drunk on the table, Li Wei put down the bowl, got up and continued to look at the courtyard. After a while, there was a light rain in the sky, and it was the rainy season again in Wuzhou.
"It's a little cold. ”
After looking at it for a while, a hint of coolness hit him, Li Wei said to himself, and put the mink coat on the side as he spoke.
In the imperial capital of Nanzhao Kingdom, a lewd young man was on the road constantly admiring the beauty of the world coming and going. From time to time, he stepped forward to tease a few words, and in the voices of "hooligan", "shameless" and so on, the young man was calm and relaxed. Such a brazen person can tell at a glance that he is a habitual offender.
"You are so bold! You molested a woman of a good family in broad daylight, and you didn't even call me to join me in such an immoral thing!
The person who drank bitterly was also in his twenties, gorgeously dressed and extraordinary.
"Brother Xiao, you're here!"
The calm young man heard the first half of the sentence and was about to turn around to see who it was, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, his angry face smiled at the last moment of turning.
This is naturally the Seven Princes Wang Xiao, and the notorious little son Li Fei of the King of Runnan in the young imperial capital who was previously alone "appreciating the flowers".
The two met by chance, and after some familiarity, they became bosom friends, so as long as the two appeared in the entire imperial capital, they would definitely cause some restlessness.
Over time, the names of the two evils have spread among the major Qinglou hotels.
"Isn't this nonsense! Who else on this street cares about you besides me?" Wang Xiao's face was unhappy, he caused trouble not long ago, and he was not disciplined by the emperor Lao Tzu in the past few days. I wanted to go out to breathe, but I didn't expect to run into Li Fei.
"Life is really lonely like snow, fortunately I have such a confidant and friend as my brother, I know that I am lonely, I know that I am lonely. Li Fei's eyes gradually became sad at this time, but this sadness could not be maintained, so he simply made a generous statement, and finally reluctantly turned into a lewd and treacherous smile.
"Stop, what's the trouble? Is there anything good lately?"
Li Fei's life is good, Wang Xiao doesn't think he will be really sad, but although he is a prince, he can't live Li Fei's happiness, Wang Xiao was sad alone for a while.
"Not to mention, there have been a lot of good goods in Hongxiangyuan recently. Why don't we go and have a look?"
Li Fei asked, and patted the bulging bag hanging on his belt with his right hand, signaling that the silver was sufficient and he could act.
Seeing Wang Xiao's hesitation, Li Fei hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wang Xiao. "Don't worry, look at you, you have been reprimanded and have been suspended from issuing money, I will give you this month's expenses first!
"In that case, good brother, let's go! I want to see it!"
Reaching an agreement on the cost of living, the two began to hook their shoulders and walk towards the Hongxiang Building with a smile.
