"What is a dead man?"

In Yanshu Tea House in Linzi City, some people were talking loudly, one of them was especially loud.

Places like tea houses and taverns have always been crowded with gossip. Throughout the ages, there are countries all over the world, and the family is short, and they don't care about anything.

Qi Guoyan's style of contention is not very popular yet.

The song country is wonderful. In any city at any time, there is a chance to encounter debates, and it is a joy to talk about it. There are countless people who have been scolded to death. Of course, that is also a derivative of the path of practice.

In Linzi today, the person who is most famous for cursing others is naturally Ruer Fengming.

This person is very talented, and he writes good articles. Because he is very reckless, there are often surprising theories. There are many despised people in the ruling and opposition parties, and there are also many supporters.

At such a moment, surrounded by a large tea table, he sat at the top, among the literati, he was clearly the opinion leader and the focus of the crowd.

He was born with a good face, and his clothes and accessories were also very stylish. His voice was up and down, which could arouse emotions: "The meaning of the existence of a dead man is to die for the master!"

"If you die generously, you can be called a strong man. If you die without a name, you are called Chusuke!"

"Crawling in the dark night, doing one thing in one's life, sacrificing one life for one person."

"Looking at the ancient and modern times, can there be a dead man who enjoys a great name? Not to mention the reversal of master and servant, which is paradoxical."

"What a hero Bowang Hou was in the past. His descendants, Chong Xuansheng, were ignorant of a dead man, humiliating the lintel. There is no order of honor and inferiority, and the distinction between high and low is not a big deal! Now it is the death of this dead man. The disappearance was carried out with great fanfare, and it was said that she was going to pursue her as a wife. A lot of manpower and material resources were used, and the city was full of disturbances, and it was spread all over the world!"

He flicked his sleeves suddenly, and his voice was like gold and iron: "It's really a shame for a famous family!"

brush!

While speaking, in an elegant room not far away, the snow paper door painted with distant mountains and flowing water suddenly opened, revealing two people sitting opposite each other at the tea table.

Even though one of them was dressed in casual clothes, he couldn't hide his evil spirit, so he looked like he was from a soldier. Even though he was kneeling on the bamboo mat, his spine was straight. At this moment, with his hands on his knees, his face was full of expressions of watching a show.

The other was much looser, with one leg crossed and the other upright. Elbows resting on knees, slender five fingers holding a teacup, wanting to drink but not yet, looking over with a half-smile.

His eyes are like ink stains, and his white clothes are better than snow.

He is naturally the Grand Qi Champion Hou Chongxuan Zun.

"What kind of family are you?" He looked at Er Fengming with a smile on his face, but his words were clearly blunt.

Er Fengming was obviously a little surprised, but he quickly realized it.

Sneered: "I said who was listening to the corner, it turned out to be the champion!"

Then he said: "Although the Er family is not a famous family with meritorious service, but the poems and books have been handed down to the family, and the rites and music have been passed on one after another. From the reign of Emperor Wu to the present, generations of innocence! The champion said a famous family, what is a famous family? Famous, famous, Ming also , Li also—"

Snapped!

The teacup shattered directly in front of him, interrupting his eloquence.

Broken residue, tea water flowing around, and a stubborn and upright tea bud.

It is the picture scroll that was spread at the feet of Er Fengming and his friends.

It shocked everyone.

Er Fengming also subconsciously stopped.

Chong Xuanzun looked over arrogantly: "When will it be your turn to comment on Chong Xuan's family affairs?"

Er Fengming looked at him for a while, his face turning blue and then white, and finally he swallowed all his arguments, flicked his sleeves, and was about to go out: "It's really a summer insect!"

But there was a sudden burst of overwhelming power.

Chong Xuanzun's voice sounded: "Did I tell you to go?"

Er Fengming turned around abruptly: "Even if the Son of Heaven is not offended by his words, what do you do?"

Chong Xuanzun only looked at the residue on the ground, raised his chin: "I broke the teacup and left. Is this the family of rituals and music? Clean up for me before leaving."

Those friends around Er Fengming usually shake their pens very fast and spit when they point out Jiangshan, but at this moment when they are face to face with Champion Hou, none of them dare to speak up.

"Chongxuan Zun!" Er Fengming is also a well-known scribe in Daqi, how could he be insulted by this? He flew into a rage and said, "Don't think that you can cover the sky with one hand in Linzi, you can kill scholars, but you can't humiliate them!"

Clang! !

Chong Xuanzun didn't say any nonsense, and with a simple move, he pulled Wu Duqiu's saber out of its sheath.

Just like this, he raised his knife barefoot, hung his white clothes on the front, and walked towards Er Fengming.

The people around Er Fengming all retreated.

The entire Yanshu tea house was silent, no one dared to speak out, no one dared to persuade.

Today's Chongxuanzun, not to mention the younger generation of Qi State, but counting the previous generations, how many people dare to fight bravely with him to divide life and death?

Among those people, Er Fengming was definitely not included.

So he squatted down without hesitation, took out his handkerchief, wiped off the tea on the floor, wrapped up all the fragments of the teacup including the tea leaves...then left in a hurry without saying a word.

Chong Xuanzun, who had already walked to the door, did not chase after him. He closed the snow paper door casually, blocking the eyes of the onlookers.

With just a random flick of his hand, the saber taken from Wu Duqiu was put into its sheath.

From the beginning to the end, Wu Duqiu, who was born in the Spring Death Army, just sat quietly at the tea table.

At this time, he took out another teacup and poured tea for Chongxuan Zun.

He said with a smile: "If he is a man with integrity, you really let his blood splatter on the spot?"

Chongxuanzun sat down in a loose posture, and said casually: "It happens that Yiwu can't go back to Linzi this year, so if I kill this guy, I will go out to play with him too."

Wu Duqiu just smiled when he heard the words.

This is Linzi, the state of Qi, at the foot of the emperor, where the headquarters of the Inspection Office is located, and the criminal laws are strict. If you want to kill someone with status and influence like Er Fengming, you must pay a considerable price.

Of course, Champion Hou definitely paid the price.

It is precisely because of this that Er Fengming dare not use his head to bet on Xuan Zun's temper.

"Er Fengming is a man who often makes surprising remarks." He shook his head: "I don't know what it is."

Chong Xuanzun said indifferently: "I probably want to imitate Xu Fang back then, who became famous by swearing at others... Confucianism has a unique method, which is to rely on fame to promote cultivation."

Wu Duqiu said with a smile: "Then he is much smarter than Xu Fang. He scolds people pickily, and he apologizes in a timely manner. Cao Shuai will not care about this kind of person. As a new Qi man, Marquis Wu An always acts I have scruples, and if I devote myself to practicing, I will not look for him specifically. In my opinion, scolding your cousin today is just throwing stones to ask for directions, probably because he wanted to get closer to you... I didn't expect to flatter him on the horse's hoof."

Chong Xuanzun picked up the teacup: "This kind of cleverness is really annoying."

"Speaking of which, why did you get so angry all of a sudden?" Wu Duqiu said, "You don't seem like someone who would care about these things."

Chong Xuansheng mobilizes all kinds of connections like crazy, looking for a dead man all over the world, has long become a popular topic of conversation on the streets and alleys.

There are many people who Bill Fengming said more harshly.

Why Xuansheng is obese and ugly, no one is willing to match the princes and noble daughters of the court, and I can't find anyone, so I can only forcefully accept a subordinate...

Why is Chong Xuansheng in the same line as his father, and the final ending must be similar...

It was even said that the Fourteenth was actually a spy from another country, who had stolen the secret technique of Chongxuan from the Bowanghou Mansion, and that was why he was hunted down so aggressively.

Of course the person who said it knew that he was making it up, and the person who spread it naturally knew that it was full of nonsense. But trampling others with the greatest malice has always been the habit of talking in the streets.

This fly buzzed once, that fly buzzed twice, the more buzzing the more outrageous. But the more outrageous, the more amazing, the more people are eager to share.

Even with the influence of the Chongxuan family today, it is impossible to suppress so many broken mouths. If you really pay attention to it, you will lose your worth for nothing.

Of course Xuanzun understands this truth. But he only said: "It's disturbing me."

Wu Duqiu was noncommittal, and asked again: "So what's the matter with you looking for me today? It's not really just for tea, is it?"

"My fat brother, after searching so hard for two days, I can't find anyone. I suspect that Shisi has already gone to sea." Chong Xuanzun's tone was calm: "Isn't there something to do with you on Jussing Island? Help find it."

Wu Duqiu couldn't help laughing: "What's the reason for the champion?"

"Jiang is still old and spicy. The old man specially chose the day when he entered the academy, and summoned me and Chong Xuansheng to discuss the issue of attacking the nobility. Even if the calculation is correct, I will settle the old and new grudges together, and bring Chong Xuansheng into the academy to beat him ...Separate Chong Xuansheng and Shisi so indistinctly, and do not give them a chance to communicate. Then slowly promote the marriage, lay out conditions, and give the two of them the opportunity to choose. Fourteen's choice is as follows: He wished that if Chongxuansheng also made the expected choice, the old man could still use the fact of allowing Fourteen to be a concubine to repair his relationship with Chongxuansheng's grandson... But he didn't expect Chongxuansheng to be so determined. "

Chong Xuanzun spread his hands: "The old man gave me a hand, and I have to make things difficult for him."

Wu Duqiu grinned and said, "You don't need to explain so much... I will accept this matter."

After a pause, he asked again: "By the way, I'm quite curious. Regarding Chong Xuansheng's choice... what is your attitude?"

"How should I put it..." Chong Xuanzun turned the teacup and said, "It's even a little bit admirable."

Wu Duqiu laughed: "It seems that we are going to turn hostility into friendship."

"No." Chong Xuanzun put the teacup down, clapped his hands, got up and said, "It feels better to be beaten."

...

...

For two whole days, there was no news of Fourteen from all the border counties in Qi State.

Chong Xuansheng was almost insane, but he had to sit in Linzi, gather information from all parties, calm down, and analyze the clues about Fourteen.

After reporting to the imperial court, Jiang Wang went east out of Linhai County and rushed to the offshore islands alone.

Although with Lu Zongxiao's relationship, there is no information on the fourteenth ship at any of the thirteen wharves in Linhai County. But in the case that none of the border crossings of Qi State has captured the whereabouts of Fourteen, only the offshore islands have the greatest possibility.

The wharf in Linhai County is a place full of fish and dragons. It is not easy to find someone who deliberately hides his identity. Looking back on the past is even more difficult, and some omissions are inevitable.

Desheng Commercial Bank already has business overseas, but it can provide some help. Jiang Wang specifically found the Universal Business Alliance and spent a lot of money to use their intelligence network.

In addition, Jiang Wuyou also has a very positive attitude towards this matter, saying that it is difficult for Linzi to find a son who is not a scumbag, and he is willing to mobilize people to help... But Jiang Wang, considering Chong Xuansheng's family background, is not suitable to go with the princess It was too close, so he refused on his behalf—although the current Chong Xuansheng certainly wouldn't care about it.

The last time I went to sea was two years ago.

The death fight on Tianyatai seems to be very far away.

The names on the Sea Honor List have already been squeezed out.

Since ancient times, this place has been full of people coming and going, and the tide ebbs and flows.

Jiang Wang went out to sea to find someone for Chong Xuansheng, of course he didn't come unprepared.

He is not very confident about finding someone. But he has a lot of experience in how to make a big commotion.

If the intelligence network jointly woven by Desheng Commercial Bank and the Four Seas Business Alliance cannot find Shisi, he will prepare to go to Tianyatai under the pseudonym "Shishisheng" and openly challenge Chen Zhitao of Diaohailou.

This is destined to cause a sensation in the offshore islands, inform Fourteen of his arrival, and let Fourteen know Chong Xuansheng's determination.

If Fourteen hadn't appeared after fighting Chen Zhitao, he would sort them out according to their fame and challenge the gods on the offshore islands one by one until they had fourteen matches.

When killing Ji Shaoqing, Chen Zhitao said, "If you were born fifteen years later."

Jiang Wang may also tell him this time that it doesn't matter if he was born fifteen years earlier.

Of course, this is just a way to support the bottom line, and it is only in Jiang Wang's imagination for the time being...

And in the end it's just an idea.

Because just when Jiang Wang landed on Haimen Island and organized people from all walks of life to search for Fourteen, an unexpected person came to his door.

The person who came to the door was a middle-aged man, holding the token of Diaohailou's general affairs envoy.

As the highest position under the elders of Diaohai Tower, the general affairs gave this position considerable power, especially now that the Zhenhai League was established a few years ago.

"...From Deqiao to Youxia... such as the Wrathful Whale Gang... To sum up, we have conducted a comprehensive investigation. In the past four days, among the people who came from the direction of Qi, there is absolutely no fourteenth girl In other words, if you are sure that she left Linzi on April 26th, then she definitely did not go to sea."

The general affairs envoy surnamed Lu reported in this way.

To thoroughly investigate all the people who went to sea from the direction of Qi within five days, one only needs to think about how terrifying the task is. The manpower and material resources to be used are by no means simple.

There is no doubt about the historical status and operation of Diaohailou in the offshore islands.

Even though Qi State is so powerful today, it continues to erode the share of Zhenhai League overseas and suppress the prestige of Diaohailou. But when it comes to intelligence capabilities in offshore islands, it still cannot compare with Diaohailou.

If Zhu Biqiong didn't intend to deceive, then this is the final truth.

Fourteen If she hadn't gone to sea, where is she now?

As for whether the news was Zhu Biqiong's deliberate deception... Jiang Wang didn't think about it at all.

Speaking of which, they haven't seen each other since the last farewell.

The days when we were together in Qingyang Town are still very precious memories when I think about them.

At that time, the two people who were still unknown, the two people who had a very simple understanding of the world...

Now a person who has returned to Diaohai Tower and has become a disciple of the fourth elder Gu Huaixin can make people at the level of general affairs envoys work for her. One is still in the officialdom of the Qi State, and he was named the Marquis of Wu'an of the Great Qi. He went to sea and did nothing, so he attracted the attention of all parties.

They all walked very high, so the distance between each other seemed even further.

It is no longer the old days when black dogs make noise and white dogs feel sad.

The endless sound of waves tugged at the memory.

Jiang Wang was silent for a moment before asking, "Where is Miss Zhu?"

"My girl said——" Lu Shuwu looked at his nose, nose, and heart: "If you ask, I will tell you that it is not the time to meet each other."
