Chapter 51: Snow (I)
I thought it would be a banquet for the guests and hosts, and everyone could be satisfied and go home happy.
Unexpectedly, I suddenly heard such a shocking news, which was really unexpected. However, Zhou Jiujian and the others were all monks on the mountain, and they were not from the East Winning Country, although they were surprised, they were not deeply touched by this after all. But unlike the county guard, after suddenly hearing that the capital had been captured, he first threw the cup in a daze, and Mu Li was on the spot, and when he came back to his senses, he grabbed the armor collar of the captain who patrolled the city, and even didn't even have time to say hello to the person who did it again, and he had already walked into the wind and snow outside.
In the end, it is a fatal matter, he Guo Zixi always knows the seriousness of the matter, I am afraid that it will be a moment and a half, the officials of the whole city will be summoned for him, or, now, they have already been summoned, just waiting for him, the county guard, to decide everything.
There were only a few of them left, looking at each other, looking at the many delicious wines and delicacies in front of them, and they hadn't eaten much, but now they couldn't move chopsticks, but it had become a dilemma.
Although it is said that it is the old Taoist Fang Qingran who sits on the main seat, he is only a guest at the table, and the real host has already left, and everyone can only look at the dishes in front of them, and helplessly put down the chopsticks.
Alas, after all, it is not in accordance with the etiquette.
"Or, everyone, just disperse?" Fang San's face was flushed, looking at him and Lao Hong, he had drunk a lot just now, but now he didn't speak with a big tongue, and he still said soberly.
With such a rugged figure, he also has a good amount of alcohol to match.
Zhou Jiujian is naturally no problem, and Liu Yue beside him is also according to his will.
The young man looked at Lao Hong with some concern and said, "Uncle Xuanyuan, are you okay?"
Lao Hong thought that the young man was talking about his drinking, so naturally he couldn't show half of his timidity, patted his chest and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll tell you, just a little wine on this wine table, just this little bit of energy, and it's not as big as I used to drink, even if I give me two or three more pots, I can't talk about the word 'drunk'!"
Zhou Jiujian was a little embarrassed, and said: "I don't mean this, I mean, what happened today, the capital of your Dongying was captured." ”
The young man suddenly lowered his voice quietly, just enough to be heard by everyone at the table: "I estimate that it won't be long before your Shangyang City will be besieged by a large army, so you have to prepare early." ”
After hearing this, Old Daoist Fang Qingran and Fang San both nodded approvingly.
Lao Hong suddenly realized that the young man was talking about this, and slapped his thigh, only then did he show a sad face, and said: "Hey, that's what I said, I don't know which guy who suffered a thousand knives provoked this war, and the peaceful days of good and decent were gone, it's really hateful!"
I don't know if it's a teenager's illusion, I feel, between Lao Hong's expression, but there is no panic that it should have......
After seeing that Lao Hong finished speaking, he poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it all, then put the cup down, and sighed to everyone: "Alas, I will also go first, there are still some mundane things to be settled, in case our Shangyang City is really besieged, I have to be prepared." ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked into the wind and snow, and as soon as he stepped out of the threshold of the hall, he seemed to become a little hurried, and soon disappeared into the wind and snow.
Beside the young man, Liu Yue always stared at Lao Hong's figure, doubting and growing in her heart, and then frowned lightly.
"So...... Let's go our separate ways?" came Fang San's words behind him.
Zhou Jiujian turned his head, looked at him, then at Heavenly Master Lao Dao, and asked, "Two...... Oh, three, do you have a place to stay in the city?"
Fang Qingran smiled lightly: "This doesn't have to worry about Xiaoyou, we have already arranged a place to live." ”
"Oh, that's it," the young man nodded, and then looked at the girl beside him, the girl looked at him strangely, the meaning of the young man's gaze was unknown, but he saw that he turned his head again, looked at Fang Qingran, and continued, "In this case, it's better for the three of you to leave first, while tonight, there are no idle people to disturb, Dao Chang and Uncle Fang, the two of you have a good talk with us, let's sort out the ins and outs of the past few days?"
A glimmer of light flashed in the girl's eyes, and the young man still couldn't hold back after all.
It's like a showdown, or rather, the game is over, and it's time to review and see how many moves are played.
Fang Qingran and Fang San, the two of them glanced at each other, their own incarnations, mutual understanding, and then looked at the young man again.
Fang San smiled and said, "It's better to let the old man come and talk to Brother Zhou." ”
But it doesn't seem to have the slightest intention of contradicting concealment.
Zhou Jiujian nodded, but the two of them explained it were the same, and the young man just wanted to understand everything in between, so he didn't suddenly use it in a daze, or became a gunman, and he didn't know it.
Lao Dao also smiled: "Then let the poor Dao talk slowly." ”
Teenagers and girls, sitting next to them, are naturally listening.
The female ghost in red on the side, when she heard their words, she was also curious and listening.
Now that she can get away with being able to be a person again, it can be regarded as a great opportunity. And this chance also has a source, and the source is naturally the two old and strong men around them.
Lao Dao thought about it in his heart, and then said slowly: "This matter, let me talk about it slowly." ”
The boy nodded.
So Lao Dao continued, "Speaking of which, the two little friends, but it really happened to be the right time, I, the extralegal incarnation of Fang Sanna, followed the caravan and accidentally strayed into Fang Qinxiao's ghost mansion...... Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce Xiaoyou, now, she has become a human being again, and the poor road named her: Fang Qin Xiao. ”
Fang Qingran pointed to the female ghost and introduced, and the female ghost also stood up at this time, like a young man saluting, Zhou Jiujian quickly stood up and saluted back, thinking that she was still a demon before, but now the old Tao said that she had become a human again, but in her heart, she was still a little twisted.
Fang Qingran said again: "The things here can be regarded as accidents or fates, but you must know that everything in the world has its own providence. ”
The young man couldn't help but remind: "Old Daoist, let's not talk about it, let's hurry up and get down to business, right? Why don't we talk about why we have to send the knife up the mountain? Why can't you go up by yourself?"
Zhou Jiujian pointed at himself and Liu Yue.
The wind and snow outside are already overwhelming at this time, the north wind is howling, and the snow is colorful.
