Peach Blossom Lane, Beijing

In the Su house, the male owner of the house is not there, the hostess is closed, and no one who is familiar with him is gone.

Of course, this outsider does not include Zhou Yao, who Ye Buregret has not been acquainted for a long time, and Du Chenglin, who has the title of half-teacher.

Although Ye Buregret didn't socialize much with the wives of officials in the capital, the squires and ladies in the neighborhood met with her and had a few gatherings.

But because he went there a few times, he found that he didn't really like that kind of occasion, Ye Buregret no longer embarrassed himself, and only did things related to playing chess every day.

Although he misses Su Ziji from time to time and worries about him, the rest of the time, in order to relieve his loneliness, he often invites Zhou Yao, the daughter of the Zhou family, to sit at home.

The current public opinion in the capital is still a little cautious about the matter of female relatives making friends, Su Zizhi is not in Beijing, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother are also much more relieved, and they don't stop it.

Every time Zhou Yao came over, she brought her piano, although Ye Buregret didn't like to play the piano and couldn't play the piano, but she could still hear the good luck when she listened to the piano, and she admired Zhou Yao's piano skills very much.

It's strange to say, one of the two only likes to play chess and the other only likes to play the piano, and they can often get together, which makes Du Chenglin, who occasionally comes over, a little puzzled.

But the so-called close friends in the boudoir, or friendship come so wonderfully, there is no need for special similarities, as long as you get along comfortably, you can say yours, I do mine, each busy with their own work, and they can also huddle together for warmth.

The light rain has been falling in the middle of the night, and when he got up in the early morning, Ye Buregret beckoned people to clean up and wait for the guests to come to the door, while looking at the drizzle outside the window, silently distracted.

Originally, there was a fox with her, but when she came back on the day of farewell, she found that the fox was gone, and she searched for a circle but did not find it.

Sure enough, in the evening, dinner was ready, it was delicious chicken legs, but the fox did not show up.

This must have been to go to the dock and sneak on the boat.

In this regard, Ye Buregret has nothing to do, he can only sigh, secretly angry in his heart, when the fox comes back with her husband, she must teach Xiaobai a good lesson.

For that big fox, Ye Buregret treats it according to the standard of a little white friend, so naturally it is not good to scold everyone equally.

"So let Xiaobai be scolded twice at that time!" Ye Bu hummed and thought.

Not long after breakfast, the distinguished guests came to the door one after another.

Zhou Yao came first, and Du Chenglin arrived in a moment.

Because he came here once yesterday, he came over today and saw Zhou Yao quietly stroking the piano, Du Chenglin was not surprised, and he didn't even bother, and directly played against Ye Buregret.

In the past, Ye Buregret could barely fight with Du Chenglin for a while, but today, Ye Buregret's state doesn't seem to be very good.

"I lost!" Ye Buregret looked at the endgame, admitted defeat with a wry smile, and after a while, he couldn't help but confide his distress to Du Chenglin.

"Uncle Du, I don't think my chess skills have improved at all lately, no, it's not so much that I haven't improved, but that I've regressed. ”

"Uncle Du, you say, did I lose my aura because I always wanted to win?"

"If you don't want to win in chess, don't you want to lose? You don't have to be so entangled. Du Chenglin laughed when he heard it: "Don't listen to what those people say, there is no chess in your heart, there are chess in your hands, these strange words, it's all nonsense." ”

"It may be influenced by Sanskritism, and there is always a false emptiness, but in fact, none of them can play chess. ”

"It is said that there are also martial artists who have also learned this set, and they have no sword in their hearts, and they also said that this is the realm of sword gods, and they were hacked to death. ”

"In the same martial arts, there are weapons that can kill no weapons, and good weapons can kill bad weapons, this is an iron law. ”

Du Chenglin smiled: "This is actually a normal situation for you, I have also experienced it at the beginning, this is a bottleneck, and it has not been sorted out, so it seems to be regressive, but once you break through, you will really enter the ranks of first-class chess players, and you can compete for the title of chess saint." ”

"It's a good thing that you didn't compete this year. ”

What I didn't say later was that this so-called breakthrough was not so easy, and it could even be said that there was no law at all.

It is possible that some people will break through the next moment, or they may stop here for the rest of their lives and cannot break through.

"I see. Ye Buregret was thoughtful.

They were talking here, Zhou Yao only listened but didn't speak, playing the piano slightly, and her pretty face with no expression was actually a faint bitterness when she looked closely.

"It's all here, why are you so preoccupied? It's hard to come out to take a breath, have a good time, and still play unhappy, why bother?" the mysterious voice in her heart was laughing at her.

Zhou Yao didn't want to come, but because a mysterious voice was coming, she had to come.

For Su Zizhi, Zhou Yao took advantage of him, and she was already apologetic, but she did not regret Su Zizhi's wife Ye, and every time she was warmly entertained by her, she felt even more sorry.

This husband and wife are such good people, because of her own selfishness, she was pulled into the mud pit that she shouldn't have fallen into, and was remembered by a mysterious voice that seemed to be connected to the demon clan, this kind of thing is the reason why Zhou Yao didn't want to come over.

But here she came anyway.

When he first saw that Du Qisheng, the mysterious voice said "Huh", and then laughed twice.

Although he didn't know what the other party was laughing at, Zhou Yao had a cold temperament, so he didn't ask.

And at this moment, the ridicule of the mysterious voice made Zhou Yao stop stroking the qin.

It knew that this was a manifestation of Zhou Yao's anger.

From the beginning when he was ridiculed by himself and only cared about Shao Sisen's affairs, to now being ridiculed by himself, he can show a little anger, and this obvious grief is slowly being repaired, so that the mysterious voice did not continue.

I don't know if I suddenly have a conscience again, and I know not to poke people's wounds.

At this moment, Du Chenglin frowned and turned his head to look in one direction.

Although it was separated by the city wall and at such a distance, the kind of demonic qi that belonged to the big demon suddenly rushed into the sky without restraint, so that Du Chenglin immediately noticed it.

Even he noticed that the alchemists in the capital, who had always been vigilant in this regard, were afraid that they would suddenly go out to investigate the situation.

"Fortunately, Liu Zhan is not in the capital. Du Chenglin thought happily: "Yu Qianzhi will definitely check it out, this person's means are much gentler." ”

Almost at the same time, Zhou Yao, who had been playing the background board, also looked in the direction that Du Chenglin was looking.

Just at this glance, the voice in his heart was surprised: "I actually leaked the demonic energy, something must have happened there, there is no need to stay here any longer, you go and say goodbye to the master, go and take a look in that direction." ”

Zhou Yao can only obey his fate.

After finding a reason to retire from Ye Buregret, she left in a hurry.

Du Chenglin frowned, stared at her distant back, and was silent for a long time, this girl, it can't see through, it seems to be a little abnormal, but if you look closely, you can't feel the demonic energy.

"In the past two years, the heavens are confused, although I don't repair this, I can feel it, and it will be eventful all of a sudden. ”
