Chapter 60 Things are people, not everything
Time passed slowly, and it was September 29 in the blink of an eye.
At noon, on the ten-mile slope southeast of Shuoyue City, Zhang Fan and Qingluo were eating in a restaurant facing the street.
Zhang Fan came out of the burial dragon yuan in the 100,000 mountains this morning. Unexpectedly, he neither went to Xuanyuan Xianxian for interrogation, nor did he go to Xuanyuan Family's house to kill people, but rushed directly to the Crescent Pass.
A few days ago, when Zhang Fan was taken captive, although the crescent pass had not been breached by the enemy for the time being, the situation was also precarious. Since he picked the purple spirit flower and refined the purple spirit pill to make Qingluo an innate martial artist, he has always been worried about the safety of the crescent moon pass, so he spent a lot of effort to get out of the burial dragon yuan, and he didn't think about going to the Xuanyuan family to settle accounts, so he swept all the way through the vast mountains and forests, and hurried to the crescent moon pass without going to Liangshan to stay temporarily. However, things are always unexpected by him, when he came to the crescent moon pass, the crescent pass had somehow been all controlled by the Qi army, and the two countries of Qi Rong returned to their previous state, with Youyue Lake as the boundary, secretly confronting each other, and he was worried in vain, but he did not meet an acquaintance, which made him have a sense of what is wrong with people.
Zhang Fan wanted to go back to Zhenlong Mountain to ask the reason for the matter, but as soon as he arrived in Shuoyue City, he saw a few new posts on the emperor's list. Each of the several major events mentioned on the emperor's list touched Zhang Fan's heartstrings. He only inquired a little and knew what had happened. On the second day when Gao Yu was killed, the Qi army was defeated, and Zhang Fan was taken away by Xuanyuan Xianxian, Emperor Shengwei died inexplicably, and the reason was that the old disease recurred and died.
Zhang Fan knew that Emperor Shengwei would never die because of the recurrence of an old disease. His Nine Turns Soul Rejuvenation Needle Method has the effect of resurrecting the dead, and Emperor Shengwei only needs to recuperate reasonably. With his innate master's physique, it is not a problem to live a few more years, but who knows that he died inexplicably. Zhang Fan didn't even believe it. thought that Emperor Shengwei's death was just a cover-up, but he couldn't find out the reason for Emperor Shengwei's fake death, and in the end he could only assume that he was really dead, after all, the death of the monarch was not something that could be faked casually.
In addition, the prince of Tianpeng, who was once ridiculous and assassinated his father, ascended the throne and became the emperor, and he actually married Mingyue as the queen. It made him feel very sad. There are so many women in themselves, and each of them is higher in cultivation than himself, even if Prince Tian Peng has three heads and six arms, he is not their opponent. How could Mingyue marry him voluntarily? In addition, Zhu Tianpeng had committed a serious crime, and the queen's ambition was not small, could she let him go?
However, what made Zhang Fan even more angry was that Zhu Tianpeng's stupid pig actually slandered himself as a traitor. said that he had betrayed the Qi army. They are also forbidden to mention their first and last names. Zhang Fan once lived up to the light smoke, led the Qi army to hunt and kill the Rong army, made great achievements, and when the Qi army was defeated, he saved the crescent moon pass and saved the people of Liangzhou from being slaughtered, but now he has become a street rat that everyone is taboo about. Prince Tianpeng insulted himself so much, how deep a grudge he had with himself.
Furthermore. A few days ago, Emperor Changsheng of the Rong State abdicated. The light smoke prince who was difficult to be on the outside ascended the throne and became the only female emperor on the Tianyuan Continent. Tomorrow, September 30th, the disintegrated Tang Empire, which had been disintegrated for 300 years, will be reopened as the Great Zhou Empire.
What happened in just ten days made Zhang Fan unable to react. He was shocked and angry. Zhang Fan didn't even want to believe that what he saw and heard was true, he didn't contact his True Dragon Sect disciples at the first time, he just wanted to go back to Los Angeles to find Zhu Tianpeng to settle accounts, and find Princess Crescent Moon to ask what was going on.
No, he took Qingluo to Shilipo, and it happened that Qingluo was hungry, so the two of them found a restaurant to eat and drink.
"Something unexpected must have happened. Zhang Fan muttered to himself. As he spoke, he picked up the jar on the table with fragrant wine, ten thyme, and drank it.
With the passage of time, the resentment in Zhang Fan's heart seemed to be brought out by the wine, the more he drank, the more angry he became, the more angry he became, and when he stayed in the stomach of dozens of jars of fine wine, Zhang Fan, who was rarely drunk, seemed to be a little drunk, and his handsome face was slightly red.
Qingluo has been watching Childe drink silently, thinking that the innate master will not get drunk, but now seeing Childe's blushing, she can't help but be a little worried, so she put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, raised her head, looked at Childe, and asked softly: "Childe, what's wrong with you? Didn't you say that you wanted to go back to the capital to see what was going on? Let's go." Apparently she didn't want Childe to drink anymore.
"Hey......" Zhang Fan let out a long sigh. Why didn't he understand what Qingluo meant, but he wasn't drunk at all, and he wouldn't be drunk, but he was a little depressed in his heart, and he didn't want to face the reality, so he said: "We won't go back to the capital for the time being, but I heard that Zhongzhou Yingtiancheng is prosperous and prosperous on the banks of the Immortal River, with perennial fairy sounds, wealth and romance, and it is a good place to have a leisurely life, do you want to go?" Qingluo nodded and said in a coquettish voice: "Where the son goes, the slave and maid will go there." It's just that grandpa ......" Zhang Fan smiled: "We'll be back soon." Qingluo nodded.
Zhang Fan saw that Qingluo agreed and didn't want to stay here any longer, so he said loudly: "Little Er, settle the bill." So saying, he left two hundred taels of silver on the table, and got up and led the green radish away. Everyone saw that the two of them were white and green, and their faces showed envy, and they all secretly explored the artistic conception of young men and women in their hearts.
"Childe, please wait!" Zhang Fan had just left the store, and a woman in a black gauze in the store suddenly said coquettishly. When they turned back, they saw a young woman walking out of a secluded corner of the store. When she saw Zhang Fan leaving, she also chased him out.
Outside the store, Zhang Fan didn't go far when he heard the woman's call. He was slightly suspicious in his heart, turned around to look, showed a surprised look on his face, and asked, "You are Xiaoqi!" When the woman heard this, the look of surprise on her face seemed to be condensed, and she looked at Zhang Fan blankly, speechless.
The black gauze woman is Xiaoqi, the seventh princess of Emperor Shengwei, who was sent back to the capital by Princess Crescent last time, and was placed under house arrest in the palace by Emperor Shengwei. This time, not long after the new funeral of Emperor Shengwei, she was not in the capital, but she came to this remote place, and met Zhang Fan in this Shilipo, which seems to be a coincidence.
Zhang Fan was happy when he saw the person who was thinking about him, so he pulled Qingluo to Xiaoqi's side. He stroked Qi'er's delicate face and asked with concern, "Qi'er is here?" didn't care about it, he suddenly threw himself into Zhang Fan's arms and cried.
"What's going on? It's ......" The passers-by around were startled by the cry and gathered in this direction. Talking nonsense. How could Zhang Fan let people watch, with a light click on his feet, he jumped into the sky with the two girls, turned into streamers and disappeared, leaving only passers-by with shocked faces on their faces.
"Doctor Zhang, the person who left just now, Doctor Zhang!" suddenly shouted. Immediately, someone said: "We can't mention Zhang Fan's name anymore, he is a sinner wanted in the whole country." Someone said: "Doctor Zhang was framed and wronged." There are also humanitarians: "Doctor Zhang is back again." He wanted to clear his grievances. Suddenly, inside and outside the store, on the side of the road, everyone argued. It's noisy. The silence decree issued by the emperor a few days ago seemed to have long been forgotten by them.
While everyone was talking, several carrier pigeons left Shilipo and flew in all directions. At the same time, Zhang Fan and the three also came outside the town. Zhang Fan fell from the sky and came to the mountain road. Qi'er hurriedly left his embrace. There was a slight blush. But because he cried with joy on the road before, he was watched by everyone, and he troubled Brother Fan to take him away, and these scenes were seen by the girl next to him who was a few years younger than him, and he was very shy.
Qingluo saw that the beautiful sister who suddenly occupied Childe's arms before left Childe, and also consciously left Childe's big hand and hid aside.
Seeing that the two little girls were so shy, Zhang Fan couldn't help laughing: "You two don't have to be shy." There's not a lot of people around. Hearing this, Qingluo raised her head and asked, "Childe, did you know this sister before?" Zhang Fan smiled: "Not bad." She is Xiaoqi, and I met her in Shilipo a month ago. As he spoke, he said to Xiaoqi: "Qi'er, she is my maid, Qingluo." You get to know each other. The two girls glanced at each other, both laughed, then took hands and said with a smile: "Don't worry, son, our sisters will rely on you in the future." Zhang Fan smiled: "Hehe, of course you want to be with me." ”
Xiaoqi and Qingluo both had sweet and happy smiles on their faces. Zhang Fan asked, "Xiaoqi, when did you come to Shilipo?" Qi'er said: "Brother, my father is gone, and the palace maids have not been able to restrict Qi'er's freedom." Qi'er heard that her brother was captured by the bad guys, and she was sad, so she came here to wait for you. Qi'er has been here for many days, I thought my brother would not come again, but who knew that Qi'er just came out of the inn today, and met my brother. Qi'er is so happy to see her brother again. Zhang Fan smiled: "Well, I was in a bit of a hurry to leave that day, but it made Qi'er worried." Qi'er nodded, her pretty face slightly red, and a few tears in her eyes.
Qingluo looked at the sister that Childe knew and seemed a little sad, so she took her with both hands and said softly: "Sister, Childe wants to take us to Zhongzhou to play." I heard that the bank of the Bulao River is very beautiful, there are a lot of boats, and there is a lot of food to eat, let's hurry up and ask Gongzi to take us with us, right?" Qi'er raised her head and asked, "Really?" Without waiting for Qingluo to say more, Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Yes, we are planning to go today." Qi'er said, "That'...... Brother, take us there. Zhang Fan nodded and said with a smile: "Okay." But before leaving, brother, I have something good to give you. As he spoke, he took out a jade bottle from his bag and handed it to Qi'er.
With a curious look on her face, Qi'er took the jade bottle, gently opened the lid, and smelled a pungent fragrance. She saw that the jade bottle was actually filled with a purple elixir with a round treasure light, and immediately said coquettishly: "Thank you, brother." Zhang Fan nodded and said with a smile: "This is the purple spirit pill that my brother gave you to improve your cultivation, which can allow you to quickly ascend to the innate realm." Take it quickly, let's go all the way slowly, and when we get to Zhongzhou, you will definitely be able to fly like us. Qi'er nodded, and asked again, "Have my brother and sister Qingluo also used the Purple Spirit Pill?" Zhang Fan smiled: "We have already used it." It's still early, so let's talk as we go. Then the three of them walked along the mountain road.
However, Zhang Fan hadn't gone far when the sound of horses' hooves came from behind. At the same time, a woman shouted from afar: "Princess...... Princess...... Wait, slaves. ”
Zhang Fan and the three turned their heads, and at a glance, they saw two young women in green dresses approaching on horseback. Qi'er looked shocked and hurriedly asked, "Ximei, Le'er, when did you two come with you?" The two replied: "Princess, the slaves and maids have always followed you, and you came out alone before, and the mother told the slaves and maids to protect you well, and the slaves and maids were worried that you would not let us follow you, so they protected you in secret." Just now, the adults took you away, and the slaves and maids couldn't keep up, so they had to chase after them on horseback. Qi'er said: "Since you are here, then go to Zhongzhou with us." Childe said that Zhongzhou is fun there, and I guarantee that you will have a good time. The two maids hesitated a little and didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Fanlai. Zhang Fan smiled: "Don't worry, I have innate cultivation, and no one can hurt you." ”
The two maids nodded, and said, "Then the lord will get on the horse, and we will ride the horse, and we will hurry up." Zhang Fan smiled and said: "Okay, the two of you take one horse, and me, the princess and Qingluo take one horse." The two women nodded. Then one of the maids dismounted and rode with the other maid, and Zhang Fan and the three of them got on the empty horses.
In this way, Zhang Fan put Qingluo and Qi'er in front of him and sat firmly, and said, "Go!" The five of them rode forward. (To be continued......)
