Xu Chen took out the iron bow and finished assembling it, put the talisman arrow with the small iron cylinder on the string, and calmly aimed at the Qingxia cliff tree that kept moving backwards outside the window, and his breathing gradually calmed down. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Arrows were originally extremely terrifying weapons, but now that they have been forcibly added by the people of the back mountains of the Dushan Sect again, it is conceivable that once it is shot, it will definitely cause great movement. This place is not the back mountain of the Dushan Sect, and it is impossible for Xu Chen to really shoot out, otherwise if the cliff that the previous generation of Fu Master Formation Master worked so hard to weave and reinforce collapsed, not to mention His Majesty the Emperor, even the master would definitely not spare him.

After a while, he put down the iron bow in his hand and said a few words, the maid shook her head, took the iron arrow in his hand, and said, "Although there is no major problem, the tail of the arrow has to be adjusted...... The original rune arrows can ignore wind resistance, and can even use the wind as a boost, but now the rune arrows are aggravated, and the most troublesome thing is that the windward area of the arrow cluster is too large, and if you still want to ensure accuracy, the shooting distance will definitely be greatly shortened. ”

Xu Chen stuffed the bow and arrow into her arms, stretched out and took a radish and chewed it, half-lying down comfortably, and said irresponsibly: "You look at it." ”

The black carriage finally drove out of the verdant canyon and came to the southernmost plain of Chaoyang, the scenery on both sides of the official road suddenly opened up, but the wind became a little gentle, because there was more water.

Xu Chen's attention was still in the reckless mountains behind him. At the moment of leaving the gorge, he suddenly thought that there were countless formation carvings set up by the predecessors in the canyon, if there was a strong enemy from the south in the future, then only a great god rune master like Master Yan Se needed to dissolve these formation carvings, and the canyon could be blocked, even if more than 10,000 iron horsemen came to attack and wanted to attack the heart of Chaoyang at high speed, they could not do it.

He soon rejected his idea.

There are so many formation inscriptions in the canyon, it is impossible for them to be destroyed by one person, even if the master is reborn, unless the empire has already done something in these formations when the empire opened up this canyon.

And even if the cliff collapses and the road is closed, the mountains block the enemy and also block Chaoyang's reinforcements to the south, and in the war, only a simple road is needed, and a strong enemy who has the courage and strength to attack Chaoyang must have enough array divisions to forcibly open a road for the cavalry to drive, then the initiative on the battlefield may fall into the hands of these enemies.

Therefore, his war deduction also needs a peerless powerhouse to guard the exit of Qingxia.

That strong man must be strong enough, strong enough that the Buddha will kill the Buddha, the demon will kill the demon, the Taoist priest will kill one by one, and he will not be able to rest, let alone sleep, he will not have time to eat and drink, and he may even have to fight with the enemy's strong man for three days and three nights in a row.

Thinking of this section, Xu Chen couldn't help laughing, thinking to himself how could there be such a awesome character in the world, even if there were, how could such a awesome character be so stupid that he fell into a mortal situation?

Out of Qingxia, you came to the real south of the Chaoyang Empire. The fields are criss-crossed, flowers and trees are gradually multiplying, and the streams and rivers are advecting, quietly going south, until they finally merge into the famous Daze.

Because of the existence of mountains and Qingxia in the north, even though the Southern Jin Dynasty had a strong army and the sailors were famous all over the world, Chaoyang did not deploy heavy troops on the southern plains.

So this equally rich wilderness, less magnificent than the north, more bright and elegant atmosphere, the same is true for the houses on both sides of the road, most of them are white walls and black eaves, high and low, looming between the green trees and waterwheels, it does not look monotonous, but different quiet and beautiful.

The black carriage continued to the south, the scenery along the way became quieter and quieter, there were more and more streams and rivers, Qingchi stone bridges were common, the farmland became relatively less, but the secluded manor was much more.

It turned out that he had already arrived in Qinghe County.

There is a big city in Qinghe County, known as the first city in the south of Chaoyang, called Yangguan, although the terrain of this pond city is not dangerous, but in the extremely critical traffic artery, so although the imperial court does not have a heavy army here, the city defense of Yangguan City is directly under the jurisdiction of a certain department of the general Xu Shi.

Today's Yangguan City guard surnamed Zhong, the first surname in the city is also Zhong, basically controlling all walks of life in this city, and the surname Zhong is just the most inconspicuous gate valve among the major surnames in Qinghe County.

These big lords with high surnames in the south of Chaoyang have thousands of acres of fertile land and countless wealth, but what can really make these gate valves last for a long time is the importance of education.

These gate valves pay the most attention to the inheritance of education, more than a thousand years of heritage, I don't know how many celebrities. Not to mention the officials of the Chaoyang Imperial Court, not to mention the successive queens many years ago, there have even been several great priests of the Western Jin Dynasty, and now there are many children of Qinghe who serve as priests in the Western Jin Dynasty Divine Army, or are hired as teachers by the Heavenly Oracle.

Officials at all levels in Qinghe County are basically served by the children of the gate lords, but the strict law is above, and the royal family has secretly suppressed it for hundreds of years, and now the big surnames of Qinghe County are relatively low-key, and they always want to compete with the capital for some face, so the entire Qinghe County can be said to be politically clear, well-governed, very prosperous and lively, plus a unique literati atmosphere, as well as a light and comfortable religious atmosphere that can be accepted by the Tang people, so it has always been the top three places to visit in the hearts of the Tang people.

There are many shops in Yangguan City, visitors are like weaving, there are one hundred and thirty-two large and small lakes, so it is also called the city of hundred lakes, the most famous of them is the thin lake in the south of the city, although the lake is not big, but it is close to the government, more importantly, there are the best green buildings and inns in the south by the lake, and there are the most gorgeous flower boats on the lake.

The mission to the Lanke Temple, resting in Yangguan City for a few days, is to live in a relatively quiet mansion in the east of the Slender Lake, that mansion belongs to the Song family in the seven surnames of Qinghe County, a month ago I heard that the mission was coming, the Song family did not hesitate to let it out, it can be said that it gave the mission enough face.

About four blocks from Slender Lake, there is a Chaoyang Post Office, and a black carriage is parked outside the post office.

Xu Chen looked at the city view through the car window, looked at the scholars on the street, and couldn't help but smile, thinking of the former classmate in the Dushan Sect: Yangguan Zhongli.

The Zhongli who was vigorously cultivated by the surname Yangguan Zhong, the Zhongli who was extremely hostile to him, the Zhongli who was slapped in the face by him countless times, the Zhongli who was once impersonated by him, the Zhongli who was imprisoned by him for a long time, the Zhongli who didn't think about it for a long time.

"It's all the same. ”

Xu Chen thought back to his days in the Dushan Sect, and couldn't help but feel as if he was in a different world, now that he and Zhongli were already people from two worlds, he was naturally qualified to feel like this.

Because of the Zhongli he hated, he naturally didn't have a good impression of the Zhong clan who controlled Yangguan, and he didn't have a good impression of this Yangguan City, although he couldn't find the slightest fault with this city by riding in a carriage, but he was a little stubborn that compared with the capital, there was always something missing, and as for what was missing, he didn't bother to think about it.

At this moment, the maid left the carriage.

Xu Chen asked, "Did you send the silver?"

The maid nodded.

Xu Chen said: "Confirm that you used the imperial court documents to send it?"

The maid said: "I can save five taels of silver, of course I won't forget it." ”

Xu Chen said with satisfaction: "That's good." ”

Since leaving Yong'an, to be more precise, since Lao Bizhai opened and then began to earn a lot of silver, the two of them would send some silver taels to Yong'an on time every month. Although the amount is not much, it always means something, and according to Xu Chen's words, it is useless to ask for silver in that broken place, and no matter how much you send it, it will eventually fall into the two places of gambling and wine shops, so why bother to kill those two guys.

The purchase, decoration and rebuilding of the house by Yanming Lake basically spent all of Xu Chen's money, and even the dividends of the gambling house next year were also spent, but this time he went to the Rotten Ke Temple to be regarded as a tolerance, so he unceremoniously pretended to pass on the words of his master, and defrauded three thousand taels of silver in the front yard, and coerced and lured one thousand taels from Xu Chongshan, and his pocket was as full as yesterday.

He and his maids are still habitually thrifty, but since they are rich people, they naturally begin to care about enjoyment, although the carriage left by Master Yan Se is good, but it is a little shocking to live in a carriage in Yangguan City, so he picked a high-end inn next to Slender Lake, and then asked for the best room.

Handed over the big black horse to the innkeeper, he instructed the guy not to feed this simple bean bag and other dry food, the guy was shocked and speechless, thinking that it was really a high roller, and the delicate horse he raised couldn't even eat the bean bag.

Xu Chen is not afraid that the big black horse will have a bad stomach, but that he is afraid that he will lose his temper because of the bad food. You must know that this fool is now accustomed to eating fresh melons and fruits plus big supplements such as yellow essence and mountain ginseng, where can I see any bean buns, and as for the forage, I won't look at it.

Originally, this fool was a foodie in his bones, but this year he was brought into the ditch by the old scalper, and began to pay attention to diet like a master, and pursued the law of food as the sky.

After a brief wash in the room, Xu Chen took the maid to the vestibule of the inn, asked for a private room on the second floor, looked at the slender lake by the railing, and unsurprisingly called the most expensive seat.

The southern diet really has a unique flavor, and the greasy things such as smoked duck sauce and meat can also make a light feeling, and the green buds next to the plate have an elegant meaning, while the light things such as tofu and vegetables are smudged with thick sauce, and with a few pots of fruit wine, it is really very pleasing to the eye.

Xu Chen and the maid were eating happily, and suddenly heard some noisy voices faintly coming from the lake downstairs, and someone was talking about a certain thing that happened today, and his tone was quite annoyed and dissatisfied.

Xu Chen listened quietly for a while, asked the little guy to call the shopkeeper, threw a silver ingot very luxuriously, and inquired about what he wanted to inquire about.

"Mrs. Cui's 100-year-old birthday, what a big event, that is, His Majesty the Emperor also wrote a congratulatory message with his own hands, and asked the Lord of the Ministry of Rites to bring him a birthday, and the Western Jin Dynasty Divine Army also sent someone, that is, Xian Zhilang, the general of Zhenxi, that is my Chaoyang Wang General...... Such a person, after entering the Yang Pass, did not rest, and rushed to Fuchun Jiangcheng Garden to visit the old lady, what do you say Kuanyi Pavilion is, how dare you be so rude. ”

The shopkeeper said, and it was obvious that he was really unhappy.

Xu Chen only knew that the day after tomorrow was the 100th birthday of the old lady Cui Valve of Qinghe County, probably because the surname Cui thought that it would be difficult for Kuanyi Pavilion to go out of the capital, so he invited him to sing and dance at the birthday banquet, but it seemed that there were some problems in the middle.

The surnames of Qinghe County, stretching for thousands of years, even longer than Chaoyang Guozuo, have always been highly respected by the world, except for the surname Zhong, the rest of the surnames do not live in Yangguan City, but live in the manor on the bank of the Fuchun River, the famous gardens on both sides of the Fuchun River are everywhere, silently proving the heritage and power of these gate valves.

It is recognized by the world that the surnames of Qinghe County are headed by the Cui family of Ruyang.

Cui's originated in Ruyang Prefecture.

A thousand years ago, at the beginning of the founding of Chaoyang, the Cui clan resolutely fell to the capital despite the opposition of other gate lords, and agreed to the merger of Qinghe County into the Tang Realm - although it was more due to the terrifying pressure of Emperor Taizu of Chaoyang, but Cui's persistence was proved to be extremely wise afterwards - the surnames of Qinghe County not only survived, but also won the favor of Emperor Taizu and won a lot of convenience, while the rest of the so-called families of thousands of generations who dared to ignore Emperor Taizu finally ended up with a broken family and a broken inheritance.

In the subsequent history, the Cui family contributed a total of five queens to Chaoyang, in other words, His Majesty the Emperor in the palace of the capital city must also have the blood of the surname Cui, in addition, what is even more awe-inspiring is that the Cui family also contributed two great priests to the Western Jin Dynasty Divine Army.

Today's Cui's gate valve is still strong and unattainable, and the old lady Cui, who is about to spend his 100 years, once served as a prime minister. Under the deliberate suppression of the royal family and the civil and military courtiers, the officials from the surnames of Qinghe County were able to become the first person in the civil courtiers, which was the first time in nearly three hundred years.

Many years ago, Mrs. Cui returned to the prime minister's position, and then his second son did a term of servant of the ministry, and now he has resigned, and he travels leisurely all day long in the manor of Fuchunjiang, and he is already the third generation of the eldest grandson of the Cui family who remains in the capital court as an official, and has also achieved the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

The 100th birthday of such a person can naturally afford His Majesty's personal congratulations, and he can afford to come in person, and even many officials in the court are speculating that if it is not for the implementation of the national policy set by the succession, perhaps His Majesty's reward should be heavier.

What Kuanyige may be angry with now is such a super gate valve.

The legendary surnames of Qinghe County, rich and powerful, have stood tall in the long river of history for thousands of years, but they are heirlooms of poetry and books, and there is no such nouveau riche face and copper smell, which is really respectable.

If he could hear about these high-ranking lords a few years ago, Xu Chen would have infinite yearning or envy for the wealth and power of the surnames in Qinghe County, and he would be very excited, but now listening to this, he didn't even bother to raise his eyebrows, because he really couldn't get excited.

Although he has not yet entered the realm of seeing wealth and nobility as floating clouds, the word "wealth" is really no different from those flowing clouds floating between the cliffs in the back mountains for him now.

The mountain behind the Duishan Sect is an unknowable place outside the world, although it is claimed that the two worlds are connected, and he wants to enter the WTO on behalf of the Duishan Sect, but in fact he is getting farther and farther away from the world, no matter how great the family is, after all, it is great in the red dust world, how can it be qualified to let people outside the world look down on the prime minister?

It's just that I don't know when he, a person from outside the world, will be able to become a master from outside the world.

It's just that you don't have to care about the surnames of Qinghe County, but when it comes to Kuanyi Pavilion, you have to care about one or two, he looked at the thin lake with golden light outside the fence, and fell into thought.

Kuanyi Pavilion has a deep background, and Jane is even more friendly with the queen's mother, but after all, it is just a singing and dancing business, and it is also a Qinglou business, although the Chaoyang atmosphere is open, and it will not feel humble, but it will not feel how glorious, so why do those girls dare to fight with the surnames of Qinghe County?

What's more important is that Kuanyi Pavilion has no reason to offend these powerful gate valves in the south, according to the itinerary, even if there is a song and dance at the birthday banquet of Mrs. Cui, there is no problem in terms of time.

"It doesn't make sense. Xu Chen said: "Kuanyi Pavilion is a song and dance, where did you get the courage?"

"That's what the guest officer said. ”

The shopkeeper said with emotion: "Although Yangguan is not as good as the capital, Qinghe County is only a part of Chaoyang, but we are not an ordinary countryside here, and the 100th birthday banquet of Mrs. Cui is not something that anyone can go to if they want to. ”

Xu Chen smiled and waved his hand to signal the shopkeeper to leave. After a while, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he looked at the thin lake outside the fence, and said expressionlessly: "It turned out to be deliberately difficult." ”

The neon dress song is more than 30 years ago, the wide clothes pavilion in the Southern Jin Dynasty new monarch succession ceremony on the dance when the dance shocked the world, the legend of the neon dress dance, no audience is willing to blink, no musician dares to look at the dancers in the field, and when this dance to the most wonderful, you can even see the picture of the sky.

No matter how the legend blows this dance, Xu Chen doesn't believe it anyway, he has seen a lot of dances in the Kuanyi Pavilion, but he has never seen the neon clothes in his life, not that the girls in the Kuanyi Pavilion hide his secrets, but this dance requires thirty-six dancers to dance at the same time, and there is no such a big place in the building.

In addition to dancing a few neon clothes in the capital over the years, Kuanyige has never performed elsewhere, and no one knows that Kuanyige can no longer perform neon clothes songs now!

The girl Lu Xue, the only girl who has the ability to lead the dance in the past five years, is now married to a good family, and the girl newly trained by the Jane family is still a little bit worse than Lu Xue back then, and she can dance the nine-point charm of Hu Xuan Dance, but she can't master the neon dress at all.

They were invited to the Rotten Ke Temple this time to perform a dance called the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers, which is said to be equally beautiful, but their most famous dance music may be lost, and it is still a terrible thing, so this has become a secret.

Again, the relationship between Kuanyi Pavilion and the Dushan Sect is close, and the relationship with Xu Chen is even closer, if he wants, he can even know the menstrual cycle of each girl. For him, it is impossible for Kuanyi Pavilion to have any secrets at all, and he knows that the current Kuanyi Pavilion has no way to dance neon clothes, so it is confirmed that the gate valve of Qinghe County insists on asking Kuanyi Pavilion to dance neon clothes, which must be deliberately difficult after knowing about it.

It's just that the surnames of Qinghe County are such high-ranking lords, why would they be so difficult for Kuanyige?

Xu Chen couldn't figure out how to think about it, so he hurriedly ended the meal, left the inn with the maid, and returned to the post office, looked at the black signboard of the post office, found the mark he needed, and followed those marks on the streets of Yangguan to a very inconspicuous grocery store.

In the grocery store, the shopkeeper bowed slightly and said politely, "What do you want?" ”

Xu Chen said directly: "You are a point set up by the secret guards here, right?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's face changed suddenly, and he subconsciously wanted to take out a knife from his waist and stab the young man in front of him to death, but he always felt that something was wrong with this matter, and said tentatively: "Wind." ”

"Rainstorm? I don't remember, who is impatient to remember so many of your codes?"

Xu Chen said, took out a waist card from his belt and threw it over.

Before the decisive battle with Ximen Wang, he returned the waist cards of the secret guards and the guest of Tianshu to His Majesty in the palace, and his thoughts were naturally simple, but he didn't want His Majesty to be in a dilemma, but what he didn't expect was that a few days after he killed Ximen Wang, His Majesty actually returned the two waist cards.

And the waist card of the dark guard directly became the head of the dark guard.

Of course, this is an honorary title.

The shopkeeper took the waist card, confirmed that it was his own person, and couldn't help but be annoyed, thinking that this was a novice trained by a colleague, how could he be like an idiot, and broke into the shop and asked if it was a point set by the secret guards, if they all did this, the secret guards were still secretly fartful, and the loss was their own thoughts...... Wait, this waist card is a little weird.

The shopkeeper looked at the obvious and somewhat different patterns on the waist card, hurriedly looked at the words on the back, his face suddenly became strange, and he hurriedly welcomed Xu Chen into the back house.

After entering the back house, he hurriedly knelt in front of Xu Chen, held his waist card high with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "The humble post to meet the chief manager, there were many secret slanders in my heart before, and I hope that the lord will forgive the sin." ”
