Driving away the man surnamed Huang, Su Ci looked out the window and pondered.

What did Bai Zhouxing mean by His Majesty's edict, he was still very wary of this senior brother he hadn't met yet.

Although his teacher has a good relationship with Bai Zhouxing's teacher, now, the person who can really threaten Bai Zhouxing's position as the master is his teacher.

Although the university Shi Meixun and the university Shi Suhuan are competing with Bai Zhouxing for the position of master.

But now that Xilin is in the lineage, most of the power is still in the hands of Bai Zhouxing, and it is he who brings Xilin back on track in the struggle, and the person who can wrestle with His Majesty the Emperor will definitely not be weak.

Last night he had analyzed the imperial court and the emperor with his teacher, and this was something he had to do because he had fallen into the emperor's chessboard.

This is definitely a bad thing, he wants to get out, but judging from last night's conversation, the teacher has no idea of letting him get off the chessboard, and wants him to connect Donglin and Xilin.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was really ridiculous, how could Donglin be willing to establish a friendly bridge with Xilin, you must know that Donglin was once destroyed by Xilin.

Su Ci took a dull sip of tea, and then threw the cup on the table.

The cup swirled diagonally on the table, and Su Ci turned and left the room.

Eventually, the cup rolled off the table and shattered.

......

Seeing that Mu Liangyun and the others were eating with relish, Lu'er discovered him for the first time.

Ate some casually and hurried on the road, Su Ci also told a few friends about what was in the room just now, and there was nothing to hide.

Yang Xiao rode a horse to catch up with Su Ci, looked at Su Ci's sullen expression, and said: "I thought about it, for that big gentleman's words, first of all, he must not want you to go to Kyoto, because you go to Kyoto to represent the Holy Master, and you yourself also have the status to compete for the so-called master's position." ”

Su Ci looked at him, although he knew very well that this was just theoretical, but when he heard his best friend say such a thing, he still felt a little funny, and said: "What kind of master's position, I was just a naughty boy in the tea village of Luoyun County last second." ”

The corners of Yang Xiao's mouth sketched a little smile, and said, "What about you, you stinky fart, let me tell you that you are serious." ”

Lu'er grabbed Su Ci's shirt and said, "No, except for my brother, who else is qualified to sit in the position of master." ”

Lu'er's face was full of admiration and 1,000% confidence, as if what he said was already a fact.

Su Ci persuaded in a good voice: "Lu'er, it's wrong to worship blindly. ”

Lu'er said: "There is no deer, the deer's eyes are bright,"

As she said this, she tried to open her wide eyes.

Su Ci smiled heartily, then looked at Xiang Yang Xiao and said: "What you said makes sense, I have also thought about it, but even if I go to Kyoto, what can I do, first, I have no acquaintances, and second, I have no strength to rely on, is my senior brother so timid." ”

This is impossible, if he is timid, there are a few bold people in this world.

The group entered the ancient road, and there were some yellowing grass on both sides of the road.

Yang Xiao said: "He said that it was an edict, an edict from His Majesty," he pinched the two words of His Majesty very hard.

Su Ci suddenly realized, the teacher told him last night that the emperor was likely to summon him into Kyoto, and Bai Zhouxing didn't want him to enter Kyoto on behalf of Gu Fen and enter Xilin.

He admitted Su Ci's identity as a little uncle, and hoped that he would always be a little uncle outside.

Therefore, the edict he asked Su Temple to refuse was the edict of His Majesty the Emperor to summon him to Beijing.

In fact, he should have thought of it a long time ago, but he thought that his majesty would have other edicts, such as those for his family.

After all, the emperor wants him to do things, and he has never been so comfortable doing things for the royal family, if he doesn't hold something more important than your life in his hands, how dare he let you do things with confidence.

But according to Yang Xiao's line of thinking, it is also very likely.

He nodded, and Yang Xiao said, "It's useless to think too much, hurry up, I don't want to sleep on the grass with you tonight." ”

Su Ci glanced at the surrounding environment, they had been out of Rucheng for several miles, and the wasteland on both sides was covered with tall artemisia grass, it was spring at this time, it should be the busy season for farming, but the land here seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

Mu Men asked with some curiosity: "Why is there no land here?"

The Mumen family used to be a big family, although the family has declined a lot because of his father's affairs, but it has not yet reached the day of renting land for farming.

Mu Liangyun looked at a dead tree in the ground and said, "Leave the capital, you will find many such places. ”

The Su Ancestral Hall, which came out of the mountain village, probably knew something, and he didn't have seen some rich people, who would rather waste the land than plant it for the people, and the people couldn't accept the high rent of grain, and they didn't want to rent it.

Mu Liangyun's family predicament is even more difficult than him, and it can be said that he is a teenager who came out of the field.

"No one rents, of course, because they can't afford it, and the rich man's family is not short of money or food, and he doesn't care about such a little labor, and the peasants will never be able to compare with them, or it won't be long before someone will come here. ”

Su Ci was very aware of this reality, and then said, "Over time, it has become like this, although the current Dalin sounds thriving, but under the solidified level, the most bitter people will always be at the bottom. ”

Mu Men fell silent, Duan Ming beside him shot through the tall weeds, and said indignantly: "These people are so fucking disgusting. ”

Mu Liangyun said: "Don't feel disgusted. ”

Duan Ming and Mu Men asked in unison, "Why?

He raised his head slightly and said, "Don't ask me, ask Xiao Susu." ”

Su Ci laughed twice and said, "This is really not disgusting, this is called being rich and capricious." ”

Lu'er said abruptly: "They don't care if we live or die." ”

Yang Xiao walked to the front unconsciously, listening to the words behind him, he was a little dull.

If you want to ask the five of them, although Su Ci has now become the most respected person among the five of them, the family business will surpass their family in the future.

But all along, he is the real young master among the five of them, the Yang family, as the Shanglin clan, ranks third among the top ten trading houses, and the family industry is almost all over the north.

Of course, the word rich also includes his family, and he also knows that the rich man in his friend's mouth definitely does not have their family, but he still wants to do something.

Whether it was Su Ci or Mu Liangyun, they could detect Yang Xiao's bleak back.

"Hurry up, don't talk nonsense," Su Ci said.

The five horses were gone, dusty.

......

The sky that was originally known as Clear suddenly darkened, and Duan Ming whipped the horse and said, "Sure enough, it's ten miles of different days." ”

Su Ci glanced at the sky and said, "I'm afraid it's going to rain hard." ”

They vaguely saw that the peasants in the distance had already driven the ox cart home, not to mention the Qin Tianjian of the empire, the stargazing platform of the Haotian Sect, in Su Temple's opinion, those people's ability to see the weather was definitely inferior to these peasants.

"It's going to rain, let's rush to the village in front, we should be in a hurry. ”

They entered a green field and walked through the avenue.

On the avenue in front of them, there was a teenager walking, and the young man walked steadily, neither fast nor slow.

He had already heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him, but he didn't look at it, because he was used to seeing it.

He was dressed in a thin green robe, carrying a bulging salute on his back, and holding a golden sword in his hand, which looked extremely extraordinary.

When the horse crossed, Duan Ming kindly stopped and said, "It's about to rain, why don't you go faster." ”

The young man had a very delicate and handsome face, he didn't like to look up at people, and replied lightly: "I have an umbrella." ”

Very short and concise sentence, I have an umbrella and of course I don't have to be afraid of the rain.

Su Ci said: "When it rains heavily, this road will not be so easy to walk, and it will not be comfortable for you to walk with an umbrella." ”

He recognized at a glance that the thin green coat on the little boy's body was actually the most expensive Jiangnan satin, and he was obviously the son of a large family.

"Thank you for the reminder," he said, but his tone was still so indifferent.

Duan Ming couldn't help but say, "What an impolite guy." ”

On the green hills on both sides, the people hidden behind the dense forests or rocks tightened the bowstrings in their hands and aimed them at the six people below.

Duan Chengzhang, who was still wearing a black robe, was holding a broken crossbow, staring at Su Ci's head with a hideous face, he seemed to see a crossbow arrow passing through Su Ci's head, and then drew a blood line in mid-air, and then Su Ci fell to the ground and whimpered.

"Release!" ordered.

Countless sharp arrows broke through the air, and the birds in the mountains and forests hurriedly fluttered their wings and flew to a higher place.

There were six of them, each with several arrows shot at them.

Duan Chengzhang, who was hiding in the green mountains, didn't care about the young man on the side of the road at all, just an ordinary person, even if he had some money, as long as he could take revenge, he didn't care about anything.

It's just one more death.

From the moment they left the academy, they knew that Duan Chengzhang would not give up, they knew that he did not follow the academy personnel to investigate the cause of Duan Xinghong's death, and they also knew that he had come to ambush halfway.

He also knew that Su Ci would be on guard, so he borrowed the Broken Army Crossbow.

This is the Imperial Army Crossbow, which is a cultivator of the Little Grandmaster Realm, and you have to be cautious in the face of them.

There were a total of three broken crossbows, all of which he used to target the Su Temple.

The three arrows of the broken army also shot at the Su Temple at the same time, aiming at his temple, Shenting acupoint and Tianchong acupoint respectively.

As long as one arrow succeeds, Su Ci will also die.

Su Ci reacted quickly, and he took out a bell as soon as possible, which was the bell given to him by Fairy Liuyao, and it was useless all the time.

The bell rang between the green hills, and the birds that flew away seemed to hear it, and hurriedly flew back.

The flying arrow feathers suddenly fell from the sky.

But the arrows did not stop.

Yang Xiao immediately took a bow, as fast as the wind, and aimed an arrow at the side.

Mu Liangyun slashed out three swords together, and slashed at the broken army arrows flying behind the Su Temple one after another.

There is still an arrow in front of him, Duan Ming's cultivation is not enough, Su Ci does not allow him to take this arrow, Mu Men needs to guard against Duan Chengzhang on the mountain, so he has to come by himself.

The deer, who had established a tacit understanding with himself, had already taken out the last whisker a moment ago.

Su Ci took the sword and aimed it at the broken army arrow that flashed with light.

At this moment, Duan Chengzhang fell from the green mountain and shouted, "Su Temple, go and die." ”

Mumen moved, and suddenly it rained.

The young man on the side naturally took out an umbrella, glanced at Su Ci calmly, and thought to himself that you are Su Ci.

"Is that the Su word that has appeared recently?" he said softly to himself.
