Chapter 136: Persuasion
"Is this the Black Mountain Order?" Gu Xizhi played with the mysterious token in his hand and threw it to Zhou Baidao, "The origin of this thing is mysterious, it is really inappropriate for you to keep it in your hands, it is better to use it as a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits." ”
"That's what I was going to do, but the other party made a blank check. Zhou Bai took the token into his arms and said with a smile, "Let's see when Shen Juan will visit." ”
Gu Xizhi smiled bitterly, "Lao Shen also has difficulties, I hope you can understand." He has known Shen Juan for many years, and he and Zhou Bai are also teachers and friends, so he really doesn't want to see the two fall out. "If he hadn't handed me the life card in advance, I would have been able to arrive. ”
Zhou Bai shook his head and sighed, "That's it, don't talk about it." "If there is a gap in the heart, how can a word of dissuasion be unraveled.
Gu Xizhi was also quite helpless, after resting for a while, Gu Xizhi hurriedly returned, Qingxi was happy before the month, this time was the time to stick to himself, this time he suddenly disappeared, and after going back, I am afraid that I will complain again.
Thinking of his wife's somewhat bulging lower abdomen, Gu Xizhi had a happy smile on his face, and his steps couldn't help but speed up a little.
......
A few months later, since Yecheng was destroyed, Xiahou did not stop, but continued to encroach on the prefectures and counties of Yuzhou.
Alas, once a man's desires are provoked, how can they be easily extinguished. Now that it has been stained, what does it matter if it falls into the quagmire? The battle between the Xuanjia Army and the guards of the Jingshi has intensified, and Xiahou's decisiveness in killing the residents of the Jingshi has gradually spread to the south of the Yangtze River.
From the initial disbelief, to today's tens of thousands of condemnation, the operation of the Tai Academy should not be underestimated, and Xiahou, who has a large army in hand, still doesn't care, in his opinion, as long as he occupies the Beijing Division, from Jingchu to Jiangnan, he can pacify the world all the way.
Unconsciously approaching the end of the year, Yin Si has not been visited, as if he has completely given up the Black Mountain Order in Zhou Bai's hands, but Zhou Bai has a trace of uneasiness in his heart.
"Show me, show me. Hongyu's eyes lit up and squeezed into Gu Qingxi's room, "Wow~ She's looking at me!"
Gu Qingxi's face exudes a different temperament, full of tolerance and gentleness, and his lively personality on weekdays has gradually become calm after Xiao Mingzhao's birth. "Mingzhao likes you very much. Gu Qingxi stroked his slippery hair and smiled at Hongyu.
The immature and small hand stretched out, as if to touch the fingers stretched out by the red jade, and the slender jade fingers of the red jade gently flicked the palm of Mingzhao's hand. "It's so good~" With a little envy in her tone, Hongyu looked back at Zhou Bai who was chatting with Gu Xizhi outside the door.
The tenderness in Gu Qingxi's eyes seemed to be able to melt everything, "In that case, how about you be Mingzhao's stepmother?"
Hongyu's eyes lit up, "Is this okay?" Gu Qingxi covered his mouth and smiled, "Mingzhao is my daughter, and it is also your daughter, what's wrong with this." ”
"Zhou Bai! Zhou Bai!!" ran out of the room like a red flame, "I have a child too!"
Zhou Bai was dumbfounded, looking up and down, "Really?"
"Qingxi said that she wanted me to be Mingzhao's mother-in-law. Hehe~" Hongyu's joy was beyond words, in her long and endless life, Zhou Bai seemed to be counting down every day. There is a thought that for her, it is indeed a big thing to be happy about.
Zhou Bai's expression froze suddenly, okay, so that's the case.
But Gu Xizhi laughed and said, "So very good, you and I have known each other for several years, although we are usually called brothers, but there is no brotherhood, and now you have become Mingzhao's father-in-law, that is the real family!"
Hongyu, who had delivered the perfect news, ran back to the room like a gust of wind, accompanied by Qingxi's side and looked at Mingzhao, who was asleep with his fingers in his mouth.
"I don't want Hongyu to be so popular after marriage, just like before. Gu Xizhi stroked his beard, which was already more than two inches long, and smiled.
Zhou Bai's eyes turned back as Hongyu entered the room, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a doting smile, "Hongyu's character is like this, but it made Brother Gu see the joke." ”
The two talked for a while, and the topic turned to the Yin Division.
Tighten the brocade robe on his body, close to the New Year, although the south is not as good as the north, thousands of miles of ice and snow, but there is also a completely different kind of cold, the sky has been cloudy a few days ago, and the sun has not been seen for a long time.
Gu Xizhi picked up the hot wine and handed it to Zhou Bai, "It's been more than half a year now, can there be someone from Yin Si?"
After drinking it all, the warm rice wine dispelled a little chill, Zhou Bai shook his head and said, "Although I am a person in the future, I have a better sense of foreboding in my heart, I am afraid that something big will happen." ”
Gu Xizhi frowned and said, "With the strength of you and Hongyu, if you have a hunch, you will definitely respond." A piece of carbon wood was added, and Gu Xizhi sighed, "You and I have known each other for a long time, and now we are the father-in-law of Mingzhao, so I should say nothing in a nutshell, right?"
The cold wind stopped suddenly, Zhou Bai's toast was sluggish, and then he continued to raise his head and salute Gu Xizhi, "Brother Gu has something to say." ”
Gu Xizhi drank the glass of wine, got up and looked at the pond outside the hall and said, "Brother Xian has a strange personality, I haven't heard you mention it, I'm afraid I haven't had friends before, right?"
Zhou Bai's expression remained unchanged, he was cold by nature in his previous life, and now he completely coincided with Zhou Bai in this life, provoking the charcoal licking the bottom of the basin, silent.
"Why didn't the Black Mountain Order return Yin Si at the beginning?" Gu Xizhi sighed, "You are running around for humane things, and the ultimate goal is the same as Yin Si, you are all old demons of Black Mountain, do you have to search for ten or eight years in the vast ghost domain with Hongyu, until the world is in turmoil, and you can't find Black Mountain?"
"You have been guided and watched everywhere along the way, and I know that you are dissatisfied. Gu Xizhi's expression was unprecedentedly serious, and his eyes stared at Zhou Bai like electricity. "But this kind of surveillance has the help of Yin Si, and you can quickly cut off the matter of Black Mountain. The power of Yin Si is by no means comparable to Buddhism, and handing over the Black Mountain Order and forming a good relationship with Yin Si is the best choice now. ”
"Shen Juan has come to you, right?" Zhou Bai suddenly interrupted Gu Xizhi's words, "Is this Yin Si planning to kill him?" Gu Xizhi's change in attitude made Zhou Bai a little helpless, if Shen Juan hadn't talked to him, how could he say such a thing today.
Gu Xizhi smiled bitterly, "I've known each other for a few years, and Lao Shen doesn't want to harm you." If you still remember the friendship when Yin Si disobeyed the order of the Wheel King and let you out, I hope you will stop here. How can you fight against Huanghuang Yin Si on your own?!"
After finishing speaking, Gu Xizhi breathed a deep sigh of relief, "Okay, I've finished passing on Lao Shen's words." How to decide for yourself. Standing tall, with a family and care, he no longer has the iron bones of the past. Zhou Bai's recklessness at the moment made him feel a little emotional, if it was me in my early years, my choice would definitely be no different from that of my virtuous brother.
It's just now....... When he woke up, Mingzhao cried, he couldn't help but sigh and drank it all.
....
Pulling the red jade that turned back three times one step at a time, Zhou Bai smiled bitterly, "Is there such a reluctance to take a picture?"
Hongyu stood with a sword in her arms, "Zhou Bai, who has never held a child, will not understand....."
This is a mockery? This is a mockery, right? Zhou Bai picked up the red jade, "The feeling of hugging the red jade, you will never understand it in your life." ”
