Huang Yuchen looked at the middle-aged man, he didn't mean to go in.

In the courtyard, the old man was standing with his hands in his hands, and Huang Yuchen felt that this figure was a little familiar.

Listening to him, he looked at the middle-aged man, who kept the gesture of invitation and did not speak again.

Huang Yuchen shook his head, he was a little unclear about the current situation. Since the white-clothed scribe restrained himself and did not hurt himself, the old man in this courtyard may be the key.

Huang Yuchen paused, took a step, and walked in.

Stepping into the hospital, a middle-aged man, behind him, closed the door.

Huang Yuchen walked forward slowly, getting closer and closer to the old man. I feel that the back of this old man is becoming more and more familiar.

"Here we are, little brother. The old man stood with his hands in his hands, not facing Huang Yuchen, he obviously heard Huang Yuchen's footsteps and spoke softly.

When Huang Yuchen heard this voice, he was slightly stunned, how could he be so familiar. Suddenly, it dawned on him.

"Senior Hou?" Huang Yuchen stared, standing not far behind the old man, and said this sentence in a daze.

The old man turned around and looked at Huang Yuchen with a smile on his face, who else could it be if it wasn't Hou Ce?

At this moment, Hou Ce is already like a normal person, no, he looks healthier than a normal person. His skin was white and red, and he didn't look like an old man over sixty years old at all, but like a young man. If it weren't for his gray beard and hair, and the extremely deep wrinkles on his face, standing in front of Huang Yuchen, he would obviously be a young version of Hou Ce.

Since the last time he knocked a few people away in front of the gate of Qingfeng Zhai Mountain, Huang Yuchen didn't expect to meet Hou Ce in the back, he thought that Hou Ce had died.

"Senior Hou!" Huang Yuchen's eyes widened, looking at Hou Ce in front of him, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"What?" Hou Ce smiled and said, "It's only been a few days since we were separated, and the little brother doesn't recognize the old man?"

"You...... You ......" Huang Yuchen was on the spot, pointing at Hou Ce, his heart was terrified, he was a little incomprehensible about what he was facing at the moment.

Judging from the cultivation and methods of the woman who fought against Hou Ce before, in the end, Hou Ce should not be this woman's opponent, and in the process of fighting, this woman did not have the slightest intention of keeping her hand. Why is Hou Ce standing in front of him unharmed now, and his state is more than a star and a half better than before.

"Am I younger than I was before? Hou Ce smiled, touched his beard, paced to the side, sat on a stone bench, and motioned for Huang Yuchen to come over and sit in front of him.

Huang Yuchen walked over in a daze, sat down in front of Hou Ce, carefully checked Hou Ce's face, but did not find anything abnormal, the person in front of him was Hou Ce.

"Don't look at it, an old man is an old man, and there can be fakes. Seeing Huang Yuchen's frightened appearance, Hou Ce smiled, picked up the teapot on the stone table, poured a cup of tea for Huang Yuchen, and got a cup himself, picked it up, and took a sip gently.

"Senior Hou...... How did you ......" Huang Yuchen's heart had not yet calmed down, and seeing Hou Ce's indifferent expression, he couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Little brother, don't be impatient, take a sip of tea first, and I'll talk to you slowly. Hou Ce smiled faintly, motioned for Huang Yuchen to drink tea, took another sip of his own gentleness, put down the teacup, and looked at Huang Yuchen quietly.

Huang Yuchen subconsciously picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, took a sip of tea, he felt that his mind was a little clearer, and now, he took the time to carefully look at this courtyard.

This should be an extremely elegant courtyard, the pines and cypresses in the courtyard are evergreen, a path paved with white stones, all the way to the wooden house in front, the two of them sit on a stone table in the courtyard, there are some flowers and plants on the side, a burst of fragrance came, Huang Yuchen felt that he was in a quiet mood, and the chaos in his mind slowly disappeared.

"After drinking tea, isn't it more comfortable? Hou Ce asked softly.

Huang Yuchen put the teacup on the stone table and nodded slightly, although he had thousands of questions in his heart, he was not in a hurry to ask them now.

I don't know if it's the environment, or the relationship between this tea, his heart is quiet and abnormal now, and the restless mood before has also eased.

"You suddenly came here, don't you have anything to ask me?" Hou Ce smiled slightly and opened his mouth to ask.

"The seniors will naturally say what they want to say, and it's useless for me to ask if I don't want to say it. Huang Yuchen picked up the teacup, took another sip, and said, "But to see the seniors again, knowing that the seniors are safe and sound, the kid is very comforted." ”

"You kid, your mouth is sweet. Hou Ce laughed, picked up the kettle and filled it up for Huang Yuchen, and said, "You don't want to know where this place is?"

"If I'm not mistaken. Huang Yuchen smiled slightly and said: "This place is so majestic and magnificent, if it is still in the vast mountains, this place should be the vast city." ”

"Well, you guessed right. Hou Ce put down the teacup and said lightly: "But you only guessed half right, this is a good city, but there is more than one city in the city." ”

Huang Yuchen was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he didn't open his mouth to ask, picked up the teacup, took another sip, and said: "Senior, this tea is not bad, if there are more, you might as well give the kid a little." ”

"Hehehe, you kid is indifferent. Hou Ce laughed and said, "This tea is not mine, it was given by my eldest brother." If you have a chance in the future, I will help you ask for it. ”

Huang Yuchen's face was silent, but his mind was running rapidly, the eldest brother in Hou Ce's mouth, as soon as he said it, Huang Yuchen immediately guessed who it was, but he didn't ask, but said: "I don't know how long I've been in this city, Lord City, why did you kidnap me." ”

"You slept for three days. Hou Ce stroked his beard and said softly: "But I don't know why the city lord brought you here, I immediately went to see you when I learned that you arrived in the city, but you were already cold and unconscious." If it weren't for that man's mercy, I'm afraid you wouldn't be alive now. ”

Huang Yuchen nodded, this is in line with the previous thing, at this moment he entered the vast city inexplicably, although he has no clue about everything, but at this moment his safety can be guaranteed, if he is in a coma for three days, then Li Zhong and them ......

"Senior, is there anyone else here besides me? Huang Yuchen took a sip of tea, picked up the kettle himself, filled the water, and asked softly.

"I know what you want to ask Li Zhong. Hou Ce said softly: "But I haven't heard about Li Zhong, and after you came, no one else was brought in." ”

"That ......" Huang Yuchen's heart moved slightly, he risked his life, just to pull out a gap for Li Zhong so that he could escape, if Li Zhong had something, then his previous efforts would be in vain.

"I don't know. Hou Ce said: "If you meet that person in the future, ask yourself." ”

"The predecessor is talking about the white-clothed scribe? Who is this person? He cultivates ice fighting qi, this kind of physique is very rare, he can still cultivate this fighting qi to such a high level, and he is also proficient in magic, such a person is unheard of. ”

"Huh. Hou Ce looked at Huang Yuchen and laughed softly: "I don't know who he is, how can he have such a high level of cultivation, I don't know." This person's name is Ouyang Jianming, many years ago, he was in Qingfeng Village and had a relationship with him. ”

"Many years ago?" Huang Yuchen heard Hou Ce say this, his heart became interested, and he asked: "Then this person is at least fifty years old, how can he look like a middle-aged man, but only forty years old." ”

"Fifty?" Hou Ce glanced at Huang Yuchen, smiled slightly, and said: "When I saw him in Qingfeng Village, he was like this, and he is still like this at the moment, this person is old, I am afraid that he has grown a lot older than me, you kid, how can you judge people by their appearance." ”

Huang Yuchen was shocked in his heart, this matter was a little beyond his understanding, Hou Ce was at least sixty years old, older than him, and he looked younger than him, what kind of spell was this cultivation to be so effective.

"Don't think about it, this person is cultivating Ice Fighting Qi, and his appearance has not changed for many years, which is normal. However......" Hou Ce looked at Huang Yuchen meaningfully, and said, "If you really ask him, he is afraid that he will not tell you anything." ”

"Why is that?"

"I can't tell, but if you do, you'll know as soon as you ask. Hou Ce chuckled and said: "When you kid saw me, he didn't ask anything, he looked like an ancient well, why did you talk about Li Zhonglai, your kid's mind was confused." ”

Huang Yuchen sighed slightly, and said: "Brother Zhao's last wish, let me take care of Li Zhong, if he has any mistakes, I ......"

"You can't protect yourself, how can you take care of him. Hou Ce glared at Huang Yuchen and said, "You can risk your life and let him escape, you have already done your best, not everything you can do." ”

"Okay, Senior Hou. Huang Yuchen didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, picked up the kettle and poured tea for Hou Ce, and said softly: "Don't talk about this, you can tell me about this vast city." ”

"Hey, hey. Hou Ce glanced at Huang Yuchen, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Vast City...... Where to start? ”

"We used to think that the vast city was just a city. But recently, I learned that the vast city is a country. Hou Ce said lightly.

"Country?" Huang Yuchen was shocked in his heart, how could there be a country in this vast mountain?

"Yes, a country. Hou Ce nodded lightly and said, "Think about it, this vast mountain is so vast, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of miles, do you think there are only a few cottages here?" Before, we were all frogs at the bottom of the well, but now, I kind of understand the thoughts of the eldest brother." ”

"The vast city is actually a country...... Then, the sergeant who confronted us was ......"

"Naturally, it is the sergeant of this vast country. Hou Ce said lightly.

"That'...... Slaughter Qingfeng Village. Huang Yuchen's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Is this vast country?"

"It's a bit complicated. Hou Ce said lightly: "But if you want to understand it like this, it's okay, Qingfeng Village is now in the vast country." ”
