The city lord said that it was a banquet, but it was not extravagant, and the dishes on the table were not luxurious, but they were all exquisite, and the taste of the city lord's mansion could also be seen from it.

At the dinner table, Lone Shadow also saw two familiar faces, namely Liu Tianfa and his female Iris, Liu Tianfa looked the same as before, still so easy-going and shrewd, seeing Lone Shadow also took the initiative to talk to him, and Iris was still holding the big black cat Mo'er.

Speaking of Mo'er, Guying remembered that it was it that rescued Xiaobai from Wu Chuan's attack before, but because there were too many things at that time, Lone Ying's mind was even more blank at that time, so he never thanked Dao Dao, and just took this opportunity to thank him together.

However, in the face of the lonely shadow, Mo'er was still as arrogant as ever, lying on the kis with her eyes closed, enjoying the caress of the kite, and a slender tail swaying rhythmically.

"Hahaha, little brother Lone Shadow, you don't have to be restrained, you must have known everyone present, so I don't need to introduce me more, right?" Mu Yuchen, who was sitting on the main seat, took the lead in speaking.

Hearing this, Lone Shadow got up and made a junior salute to the elders on the table, and said, "The junior Lone Shadow is also lucky, and he has already met the elders of Nancheng in a short time after coming to Nancheng. ”

This is true, it is impossible for ordinary people to climb the high branches of the City Lord's Mansion without a little time and connections, and a country boy like Lone Shadow, who has just been involved in the world, can know all the big people in the City Lord's Mansion in such a short period of time, and it is difficult to say that he has no luck.

"No matter how lucky you are, it will be in vain without your own efforts, if you can break through the spirit in such a short period of time, it must also have experienced an incomparable ordeal for ordinary people, and in comparison, Ya Shu's temperament is still too jubilant. Mu Yuchen said.

Mu Yashu, who was helping his mother serve the soup on the side, stopped talking about it, and said with a white glance at Mu Yuchen: "Dad, you can't say that I ordered it!"

Mu Yuchen took a bowl of soup from his daughter and asked with a smile: "Then what do you want me to praise you, you have a lot of wine?

"Dad!" Mu Yashu pouted, the soup was no longer full, and he sulked while sitting in his place.

Huang Qingqing served the soup one by one, and said with disgust to Mu Yuchen: "There are still guests here, and there is no serious one for a long time." Then he turned around and handed a bowl of soup to Lone Shadow and smiled and said, "Lone Shadow, you don't have to care, there are no rules on our dinner table, just be casual." ”

Lone Ying hurriedly got up and took the soup, smiled and returned the salute, to be honest, the family meal in this city lord's mansion was different from those dignitaries and dignitaries he thought before, the huge banquet hall in this mansion actually ate the warmth of his country courtyard, it seems that this vermilion wall compound is not all cold.

This situation made Lone Ying inevitably think of his own home, and he didn't know what happened to his sister who was stronger, and his parents at home should be very worried about themselves, thinking that they should go home to see when their trip to Qicheng was over.

After the whole meal, everyone at the table was chatting about some common news, originally Lone Shadow thought that Mu Yuchen would ask him about the whole journey of this trip to the Kongnan Mountains, but the other party did not say a word about this matter, which saved Lone Shadow a lot of embarrassment.

Mu Yuchen didn't know that Lone Shadow must have gained a lot of opportunities for his trip to the Kongnan Mountain Range, although he was a little interested, but some things were too deep and not interesting, he always thought that life was interesting because of the unknown, so this time inviting Lone Shadow to eat was really just a common meal, but Lone Shadow found that the eldest lady sitting opposite him always glanced at him from time to time, which made him a little baffled.

"Little Brother Lone Shadow is going to leave for Qicheng next?" After the meal, Mu Yuchen wiped his mouth and asked.

Lone Shadow nodded and said: "The problem of the juniors is known to the city lord, and the problems of the juniors are even more serious after planting spirits, so I decided to leave for Qicheng tomorrow." ”

"Well, if the spirit tortures the body, then the delusion tortures the spirit, and the spiritual matter is not urgent, and you should consider every step you take. Mu Yuchen took a sip of tea and said.

"Thank you, Lord Castle, for your teachings. Lone Shadow saluted.

Mu Yuchen waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite, if you don't dislike calling me Uncle Mu." ”

Lonely Shadow felt that it was nothing, and even felt very cordial to this Nancheng City Lord, after all, people did teach him a lot of things, and he was easy-going and had no shelf, but Liu Tianfa on the side couldn't sit still, he asked Lone Shadow to call his eldest brother on the road, and now this junior is not a complete mess.

Liu Tianfa opened his mouth, but he thought about it, after all, no one knew about his and Mu Yuchen's senior brothers, and there was no need to care about this.

"When are you going, I'll go with you, I haven't been to Qicheng for a long time!" Mu Yashu heard that Lone Ying was going to Qicheng, and his eyes instantly lit up with stars, and the playfulness in his bones burst out again.

"Hmph, you are not allowed to go anywhere before you break the realm, that stinky boy in Baifu has broken the realm, you still have no sense of crisis at all, you know how to play all day long!" Huang Qingqing stretched out his jade finger and poked it lightly at Mu Yashu's head, posing as if he hated iron but could not become steel.

"Ouch, mother......" Mu Yashu covered her forehead and looked at Huang Qingqing aggrievedly, as if she wanted to get by.

However, Huang Qingqing didn't eat her set, looked at her eyes full of seriousness, and said: "If you can't say no, you can't do it, you not only have to raise the realm now, but also have to run in your heart, so let's meditate at home during this time!"

"Daddy......" Looking at Huang Qingqing's serious appearance, Mu Yashu knew that this road would not work, so he had to turn his head to look at his father again.

Mu Yuchen shook his head at her with a smile in his eyes and said, "In the past two days, you have sorted out what you have gained from your experience when you went out, and then listen to your mother's honesty and ruin the situation at home." ”

Mu Yashu was immediately deflated when she heard this, she understood a truth over the years, that is, if there is one thing that her father and mother are on the same front, then there is no room for negotiation, so she can only sit aside with her hands on her cheeks and pouting dissatisfiedly.

Looking at such a picture, Lone Ying couldn't help but laugh secretly in her heart, it turned out that this domineering eldest lady outside would also have such a little daughter posture at home, and immediately her impression of Mu Yashu also changed a lot, after all, who hasn't had something wrong with her.

"By the way, Little Brother Lone Shadow, the book of "Sword Heart Formula" I gave you earlier can already start cultivating with your current realm, although it is only a remnant, but you are also a person who uses a sword, and it must be twice the result with half the effort if you learn from it. Liu Tianfa suddenly spoke.

Lone Shadow was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he still had such a thing, and there were too many things he had encountered recently, plus this book of mind said that it could only be used in the spirit realm, so Lone Shadow put it aside, and now after planting spirits, he is bent on going to Qicheng, where do you remember such a thing.

"Thank you Brother Liu for reminding me, if you don't say it, I will really forget about this stubble. Lone Shadow thanked him, thinking that he had to take some time to study this mental method, after all, it may be just a reference for others, but for himself, it is a real improvement.

"Okay, it's not early today, you can stay in the mansion, I'll help you arrange a carriage to Qicheng tomorrow, and you won't have to go back and forth." Mu Yuchen looked at the dark night outside the window and said.

Lone Ying wanted to shirk it, but since it was the city lord who kept him, it was not good for him to make more excuses, so he nodded and said, "Thank you Uncle Mu for your kindness." ”

Mu Yuchen nodded, and ordered a family member to take the lonely shadow to the guest room in the house, while Mu Yashu took the kite to play in the courtyard.

After everyone left, Liu Tianfa sat down next to Mu Yuchen and asked, "What do you think of this kid?"

"He gave me the feeling of being very contradictory, simple-minded but not simple, wanting to look closely but not seeing anything. Mu Yuchen touched his chin and said contemplatively.

Liu Tianfa laughed when he heard this: "There are still people who can make you want to take a closer look at your mind at will?"

He has always known his junior brother's attitude towards life, that is, if he can not explore, he will not explore, if it is good, it is called going with the flow, if it is not good, it is called salted fish, and there are very few people like Lone Shadow who can cause Mu Yuchen's attention.

Mu Yuchen took a sip of tea and said, "The sudden rise is also a surprise for life. ”

Liu Tianfa was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and after savoring it, he nodded thoughtfully to indicate that this was indeed the case, and then took the pot of wine in front of him and drank it directly.

In the courtyard, the kite sat on the small stone table, swinging her legs back and forth, pulling Mu Yashu to count the stars in the sky.

"Sister Ya Shu, have you seen the brightest star?" Iris suddenly pointed to the brightest star in the north, turned her head and asked Mu Yashu on the side.

Mu Yashu looked at the little guy's fingers, nodded and said, "See!"

"That star is called the Heavenly Demon Star, and it is said that it was formed after the death of the Demon Venerable!" said the kite, with a little coquettishness.

"Why did the Demon Venerable turn into the brightest star instead of the swordsman?" Mu Yashu thought it was where the kite heard the folk tale, and opened his mouth to ask.

After hearing this, the kite corrected very seriously and seriously: "Because the swordsman is still in the world, how can a person who is not dead turn into a star!"
