Chapter 1: The Aftermath
Chen Guo, Fengming Lake.
In the vast smoke and waves, a sailboat is slowly moving in the water of Fengming Lake.
As the sailboat moved, ripples rippled on the calm surface of the lake, and the bow of the sailboat parted into two long white water lines, the aftermath of which scattered the schools of blue fish in front of them, and also caused several white waterfowl to circulate and scatter in all directions.
But there are also a few waterfowl who are unmoved, busy and idle, lazily combing their hair with their beaks on the mast of the sailboat, and letting the sailboat carry them to Fengming City in the distance.
Fengming City is one of the most prosperous capitals in Chen State.
In the city, the smoke and willow draw bridges, the wind curtain is green, the scenery is prosperous, and the houses are also row upon row, uneven and sparse, no less than 100,000 households.
Land and waterways are also convenient, business travel is like shuttle, freight trade is developed, and the land is fertile, there are countless fertile fields, which is one of the important granaries of Chen State, and is the foundation of Chen State.
The prosperity and large population of Fengming City make the city mixed with fish and dragons, and the waves are treacherous.
The major forces of the Chen Kingdom all have branches in Fengming City, and the major forces of other countries also have some industries in the city, whether they are bright or dark, true or false, it is difficult to figure out.
A small alley may hide a number of predators, and there are hooligans who are not afraid of death, as long as they are slightly involved, they may cause a big wave.
This big Fengming City is a big stage, countless big roles, small roles, debut, on the stage to "sing, write, read and play", perform one good show after another, show the Fengming Lake outside the city, and then let the river go east.
And now, Lin Xiuran has also stepped onto this stage.
Yunyang Zhenren said that there was a fragment of the Stone of Asking Dao, which was in the place of Chen Guo in the world, so he came here to search.
He was taking the sailboat on Fengming Lake, carrying his two daughters, and after some disguise in the Wu Dynasty, he arrived at the border of the Chen Kingdom by water, land, and then by water.
At this moment, in the room of the sailboat, Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu were worried about their dress, while Lin Xiuran was holding a copy of the latest "Martial Arts Exploration" of the Wu Dynasty and watching it with relish.
The dress of the two women at the moment is no longer the dress and makeup that a woman should have, but a man's dress.
Woman dressed as a man.
Luo Xin'er swept her eyebrows, slightly exposed her temples, crowned her hair in a bun, and wore a blue satin dress that only men wear, and a pair of large green cloth shoes with a lot of soft cloth inside.
This dress, at first glance, she really looks like a handsome and lovely beautiful young man.
It's just that there are still some traces on her chest, and a pair of fat pigeons of some scale, although she is tightly wrapped and flattened with strips of cloth inside, but she still vows not to bow her head.
Hua Xie Yu is more timid than Luo Xin'er, and the idea of a woman pretending to be a man was naturally not put forward by her, it was all Luo Xin'er's idea.
At this moment, she is at the mercy of Luo Xin'er, adding eyebrows, crowning, correlating her breasts, wearing big shoes, and changing into a man's dress.
Hua Jieyu's chest, smaller than Luo Xin'er, at a glance, it is blue, more like Luo Xin'er, if you say that this Hua Jieyu is a rich man's family raised with red lips and white teeth, someone must believe it.
Lin Xiuran looked at the two girls who were very busy, and after turning the last page of "Exploration of Martial Arts", he closed it, threw it aside, and said to them: "Do you think Xianggong is good for Longyang, why are you dressed like this?"
When Hua Xie heard this, he just covered his mouth and giggled.
Luo Xin'er, the "wife", immediately put on an appearance of wanting to teach her husband a lesson, and said "viciously": "Hmph, who knows, you deceived us so hard before, who knows what ulterior things you hid and didn't tell us?"
As she spoke, she snorted again.
“......”
Lin Xiuran was suddenly choked by Luo Xin'er, a "bastard boy", and didn't know what to say.
After the golden scale test, everything was naturally revealed.
Whether it was his martial arts or whether he could do humane things, these things, after Lin Xiuran was temporarily freed, he told them the truth one by one, so that they could rest assured.
He has the ability to protect them from harm, and he has the ability to give them the happiness they deserve.
The two girls naturally cried with joy, but after the happiness, it was a girl's pink fist, which made Lin Xiuran, the amazing talent who climbed to the top of the Golden Scale Mountain, a little unable to parry, so he let him go.
Speaking of which, in the past few months after the Golden Scale tried, a lot of things had happened in the Wu Dynasty.
According to "Exploration of Martial Arts", after the golden scale test, the family competition was held, and the Ningtang Lin family took Lin Xiuran's golden scale test to the top of Yu Wei, under the leadership of Lin Weiyuan, all the way to the top, and in the end, replaced the declining Jinling Han family and became one of the new seven families of the Wu Dynasty. Not only that, the ranking of the Ningtang Lin family in the family is also second only to Qi Niansuo's existence in Shangjing Qi, and his words are extremely weighty.
After the family competition, the position of the prince of the East Palace was also decided. The second prince, Xiao Qiming, finally defeated his third brother and successfully became the prince of a country. On the tenth day after he became the crown prince, his father, the emperor, who is now the saint, was indeed cut off by the iron mouth of the immortals in the fairy court, and died in his own bedroom, and his life returned to the western heavens. Xiao Qiming, as the crown prince, naturally ascended to the throne, mastered the important weapons of the Wu Dynasty, and was in charge of the society of the first dynasty.
The first thing he did when he ascended the throne was to purge those who opposed him.
His third brother was placed under house arrest by him in the palace, and he had no freedom in this life. But success and defeat have always been like this. Xiao Qiming did not put his third brother to death, he was already very merciful, if his third brother won the throne, he might not be willing to let him go.
And the few families who supported the three princes were also hit hard. The Jinling Han family directly fell out of the seven great families and was reduced to the second class; while the Shangjing Lin family, although it was still one of the seven great families, but after this family competition, it was only ranked last, and in the future procedures, the weight of speech was extremely light, almost nothing, and it was considered a complete decline.
In terms of personal aspects, Lin Weiyuan has a good and outstanding performance in the family competition, although he is a new top grandmaster, he has jumped and become the tenth existence on the Tianlong list.
And those few golden scale lifters who climbed to the top of the Golden Scale Mountain naturally don't need to say much, they took the immortal talisman given by the Immortal Court, and after staying in the world for a while, they all stepped on the golden light immortal road, went to the space where the Immortal Court was located, went there, saw the broader sky, and sought their own way of immortality.
As for those who failed, only three can tell.
The round monk went down the mountain, although the martial arts were lost, reduced to an ordinary person, but still love to do good deeds, some people often see him sitting on the river bank alone, looking at the body away from the river in a daze, some people have said, he used a hook to catch two live fish, no longer to release, but to make a fire to scrape the scales, roasted them and eaten, eat a mouth full of oil, made a wine and meat monk.
After Qi Mo was carried home by Qi Niansuo, after all, he survived the most difficult night, under the protection of the old man, he barely survived, but the once high-spirited young man was no longer there, replaced by a gray-haired drooping old man living in the twilight.
As for Yuan Xueyi, the first thing he did after he went down the mountain was to kill Huang Mao, who was also a member of the Jixia Xuegong Gate. A righteous sword chopped his body into countless pieces, and threw them all on the side of the street to feed the dogs.
Although the giant screen in the sky of the Golden Scale Test can make everyone see many things on the field, it can't let them know the cause and effect of the people on the field. Everyone in the rivers and lakes talked about Yuan Xueyi's inexplicable killing of Huang Mao, and there were many speculations, but after all, they couldn't find out the truth.
In the end, it was Cheng Chang University who personally came forward to finally suppress this matter.
It's just that the new champion who was supposed to enter the Hanlin Pavilion, after this incident, could only go to a border town and be an unhappy little county official.
As for his wife and a beautiful concubine, "Exploration of Martial Arts" said that they all lost their lives innocently in a fire, and it doesn't seem to matter what the truth is.
