The Lord who use immortals as food

Chapter 439 First Encounter

The woman stood up from her desk and books. Her lower garment was like a skirt, and her upper garment was a light yellow-white shirt, like the color of jasmine buds. The style is very simple and plain, but the materials used are very good, and it doesn't look poor.

This actually does not look like the common clothing for women, but of course it cannot be said to be men's clothing. The person has long hair in a bun and a clean face. Pei Ye has straightened her figure, cupped her fists and bowed: "Thank you for your rescue. I will stay in prison longer." Time really doesn’t matter. But this case is so troublesome, I’m afraid it might be a hindrance for you to trouble me.”

The woman said it was a "detour" on the day, but she took it out in just one day. Although Pei Ye did not know the woman's status and power, and did not know much about the matters involved, he would definitely leave behind such a scene of a golden cicada escaping from its shell. , even if there are waves, it can be easily smoothed out, but the handle is the handle after all, and the risk is the risk after all.

The woman stood quietly, and the lady on the left was tying cufflinks for her: "Young Master Pei is so excited about stabbing the governor in the court, how can you look forward and backward at this time?"

Pei Ye was startled: "This"

This is of course because it is someone else's contribution. He can risk his own life, but he cannot care less about the benefits others have paid for him.

The woman straightened her sleeves and waved her hand: "Wu Yang Death, encore and success."

"."

The woman walked out from in front of the case, and Pei Ye looked at her, still a little stunned because she was too young.

Although Pei Ye was not rude to stare at the other person's face, in fact, a few glances were enough to form an impression - she must be a few years older than him, but she is probably younger than Qi Zhaohua.

Are these the [Museum Owner] and [Enjun]?

But he didn't have the lightness that a young man should have, and Pei Ye wondered if it was some kind of trick to keep his appearance.

But in the silence, the woman looked at him carefully from top to bottom without hesitation, and came to him: "Hello when we first met. My name is Xu Chuo, and I am the owner of the Xiuwen Pavilion."

"Hello! I am Pei Ye."

Xu Chuo nodded, gave a slight signal, and walked along the corridor to the window, with Pei Ye following behind.

"This poem is called "Chunfang Zhengzi Jianzi Song"." She raised her hand and pointed to the poem that Pei Ye had just asked about, "'Chunfang' is the official office of the Crown Prince, and 'zhengzi' means the official who compiles classics." The sword' is his sword."

"People call the Jinshi who have reached the rank of 'ancestors'. Those who are 'just like Jing Ke, don't teach Zhao Jian Chun Fang', do not want to name the sword and hide the old paper. This is the essence of the whole poem. The Jade Tower in the museum There are poems from this dynasty on the seventh floor. You can read them if you want."

".Oh, oh, thank you very much."

Black Cat and the two ladies did not follow behind. They walked through the corridor and stood in front of the window. Xu Chuo looked out the window and suddenly said slowly: "More than two years ago, Yue Mu Zhoudi and I Got the message once.”

Pei Ye was stunned.

"At that time, he roughly sensed the date of his 'Nirvana', so I made an appointment with him to fly to the immortal world." Xu Chuo slowly said, "When he reaches the sky tower, I will come to the divine capital."

"." Pei Ye looked at the person in front of him in astonishment. He never thought that the old man had some contact with Shenjing during the two years when his withered body lay on the bed, but he never discovered it.

But it doesn't seem strange when you think about it. He grew up in Fenghuai, but in his fifty years of life, the old man spent too many wonderful years in this city. There must be someone who remembers him, and he will also be remembered for it. Make preparations for your plans after climbing the stairs.

"Do you know Grandpa Yue?"

"No, I just heard about him." Xu Chuo said softly, "So far, we have never met."

"."

"But we hit it off immediately and trusted each other." Xu Chuo looked back, "This is an experience I have never had before."

"." Pei Ye didn't quite understand. If the two of them had never met each other or understood each other, how could they trust each other?

"I originally wanted to move him to Shenjing, but [Zhenlu] does not rely on external forces. It is the same everywhere. And he said that a flower has been growing in the crevices of the cliff for sixteen years, and it is about to bloom. "There is no need to move it to a greenhouse flower pot," Xu Chuo said, "That's true. I sent people to investigate. Fenghuai is a very quiet, remote, and safe place. There is no better place to live in seclusion." If you take him back to Shenjing, it will cause trouble. "

"So I stopped paying attention and kept making other preparations. Although it was difficult, I succeeded one by one after all." Xu Chuo turned around, as if seeing through the boy's confusion, "Yes, I spent so much money. Zhou Zhang. Yue Muzhou and I are not just friends. I took the initiative to find him, and asking him to come to Shenjing is not just about meeting friends. Because we want to do the same thing. "

Xu Chuo looked at him: "Twenty-one months ago, I started publishing "The Broken Hero"."

"."

"When I finally looked back, the flying immortal with withered bones traveled northward with four swords, beheading his head and returning." Xu Chuo looked out the window and sighed softly, "But you have personally experienced the accident that followed. The hero's bones were buried in the mountain, so this matter had to be interrupted. "

Pei Ye was completely stunned.

Xu Chuo turned her head and looked at him with a pair of bright eyes. The autumn wind blew in, and she coughed twice. Her weak air slightly overshadowed her calmness, but it only lasted for a moment.

"Two people who want to travel together must first see the road under each other's feet clearly." She said seriously, "I already know about Fenghuai, Bowang, Kongtong, and Shaolong. I know what you are like. "People, I am telling you this today just to tell you what I am going to do."

She looked at Pei Ye: "I want King Yongbei of Yan to die."

Pei Ye suddenly felt a chill in his body. He looked at the woman in front of him blankly, and suddenly understood why she wrote "Three feet of water in the ancestors' box" here, and what "Jing Ke's heart is always the same" meant. .

"So you don't have to look forward and backward for me, thinking that you are under someone else's protection." Xu Chuo seemed a little impatient with the cool autumn, and gently crossed his arms, "If you want to do something, you have to take risks, and if you do big things, you have to be prepared for catastrophe. You are here to complete Yue Mu It’s unfinished business, right?”

She stretched out a hand, spread it flat in front of Pei Ye, and looked at him quietly.

Pei Ye was stunned for a long time, with only the autumn wind blowing his hair. Finally, he slowly raised his hand and put it down.

Xu Chuo smiled, closed his fingers and held him. The cool skin stayed for a moment and then let go. The woman's smile also faded at the same time, and she said in a clear and steady voice: "No matter where you have committed a crime or where you are trapped, I will save you." Come out; one day you do what Jing Ke did, and I won’t be able to do what Prince Yan did.”

She looked at the young man she met for the first time: "I will personally hold the box and enshrine the picture for you."

[Wuyang Dead Man, Encore and Success]

For the first time, Pei Ye didn't know what to say. Finally, she just pursed her lips, took a step back, and bowed again.

Xu Chuo smiled lightly again and turned to look at the autumn scenery of Pinghu: "I still have urgent matters to do later, but since you are released from prison, you must meet first."

Pei Ye nodded, and after being quiet for a while, he suddenly asked hesitantly: "Then, museum owner, is my case over like this?"

He came to power with the determination to die, and he has been in a coma or imprisoned ever since. The next time he heard the news from the outside world, it was today.

He had no idea how he got out.

"The biggest disturbance caused by this case is Jianghu's intrusion into the court. For many officials and the entire court, this is unacceptable." Xu Chuo said, "But this is just for Pei Ye, who assassinated the governor. "Fu Sin, it doesn't matter who 'Pei Ye' is."

"." Pei Ye was slightly stunned.

"Now that the criminal has been dealt with by Xianrentai, the court has taken a clear stance on this matter, which is the result that people want." Xu Chuoping said peacefully, "In fact, when you are transferred back to Shenjing, this case should be over. In In Xianrentai’s own prison, we have countless ways to get you out, but Nan Ya’s intervention is too determined.”

".Why?"

"Of course it's because there are people pushing from behind." Xu Chuo turned his head and looked at him, "Prince Yan's Mansion."

"."

"The Huangren come from the north, don't they?" Xu Chuo retracted his gaze, "The waves in Shenjing are actually very simple. They come and go with just those few things, but when you look into them, there are always thousands of things. No one knows I can guarantee that my boat will not be overturned. Don’t worry about it. You will understand after seeing it more.”

"Oh." Pei Ye was silent for a moment, "Then, if Meng Li goes to jail for me, can I show up later? Also, what should I do next?"

At this time, two ladies came over, Xu Chuosong stretched out his arms, and let them put on her robe: "Of course, Shenjing is such a big place, you can just live your own life. If something has already come to an end, it won't No one else cares. The Shaolong side is well sealed and the wind cannot blow here. Now the right to inquire about this matter is in the hands of Xianrentai. If no one comes to inquire, it means that there is no such matter. If you want to be more cautious, use your snow sword less."

".oh."

Pei Ye probably understood what the woman meant. The case was not flawless, but it was over.

As long as it is over, he no longer has to hide his head and tail. Xianrentai will not publish this case file to everyone. Even if Shaolong Yingjie comes to Shenjing one day in the future, he will be shocked to see that he is still living well. It is nothing more than shock.

Evidence plus power will bring risks. Who will investigate the evidence, and who dares to provide power in front of the Immortal Terrace and this woman?

This was obviously not a rule that Pei Ye was familiar with, so he tried his best to understand it.

"As for what to do next, there is no need to worry." Xu Chuo tied her autumn robe, every detail was exquisite and neat, and then put on a cloak - she seemed to be more afraid of the cold than ordinary people, "Have a rest for the next two days. , take good care of your health first, and then get admitted to the Sword Xiu Academy, cultivation is the first priority, and..."

She glanced at the young man: "The immortal hunter said that you like to read and write lyrics, but you don't know how to read. Let me give you a seat in the Imperial Academy. Today is really in a hurry. Wait, I will take you there in two days, and we can meet again then. Let’s talk about it in detail.”

"."

"Um?"

"No, it's okay. Thank you."

"Um."

The two said goodbye. Xu Chuo put on his hood and went downstairs followed by the two ladies. Pei Ye stood by the window and looked down. The flower-spotted cloak was walking out of the building.

Another carriage had been prepared. She walked towards the carriage. Qi Zhaohua turned sideways and bowed her hands. The cloak stopped and made a slight tilt of the head. The two chatted for a few words. Qi Zhaohua smiled, and then the cloak boarded the carriage. He got into the carriage and drove away as Qi Zhaohua watched him off.

Pei Ye also watched, then suddenly frowned and turned his head, and a jade-like kitten jumped onto his shoulder.

This weight has been lost for a long time, but Pei Ye picked it up first and said angrily: "You are always talking nonsense outside. What do you mean by 'I like to read and write lyrics, but I don't know the words'?"

The black cat hung in his hand, still holding a small soft cake: "Pei Ye, if you hide your illness and avoid treatment, you will never make progress."

"..." Pei Ye grabbed its face, "You have been delivering messages for others, why didn't you tell me! They asked me to come up, and I said, 'What do you want me to do?'"

"If you were respectful enough to me, you wouldn't be so ashamed now."

"."

"You are the one who is ugly, I am just a mirror."

Pei Ye didn't want to talk to it anymore. He stared at this calm jade ball and had an idea - what would happen if it made a pact with Qu Xin?

Pei Ye sighed lightly and put it back on his shoulder. The two looked at the vast pavilion together. A few ducks were flying over the lake.

It was a strange place again. It was really a wandering life.

Pei Ye felt a little melancholy for no reason, and thought that at least this time he should be able to settle down in Shenjing, at least until next spring and summer.

But at this time, the kitten next to him was still biting the cake, which tasted really sweet. Pei Ye frowned and thought about his hard life these days: "How can you climb up the high branches wherever you go?"

"Who would embarrass a kitten?"

Pei Ye stared at it sullenly: "Have we made this [fate and fate pact]?"

The black cat was silent for a while, and handed the cake in its claws to his mouth.

Pei Ye swallowed it in one gulp, feeling somewhat satisfied.

The waiter arranged by Qi Zhaohua arrived soon, and Pei Ye took the most enjoyable hot bath in many days, using up five large buckets of water.

After removing the Zhenqi ring, bandaging the wound, receiving acupuncture and elixirs, and finally having his hair cut and face shaved, he walked out in light clothes, feeling like a new life.

But this was not the end of the day, the carriage that brought him here was waiting in front of the door again, and the sky was already dim. When Pei Ye put on his boots, Qi Zhaohua couldn't wait to urge him.

Finally, he got on the carriage and drove out of Xiuwen Pavilion. The lights in Shenjingli were just coming on, and the night was dotted with round lights, and the red-eaved buildings were the dim background.

Pei Ye knew where he was going - Qi Zhaohua said that several friends had booked seats at Zhaixing Tower and were waiting for him to go.

Pei Ye lay in front of the window, looking at the unimaginable wide streets, feeling the infatuated prosperity, the sparkling cars and horses, the laughter of pedestrians, the lake reflected by the night lights like pearls, and the towering buildings with countless layers of eaves in the distance. The city seemed to be vast and boundless.

He had been shocked by the hugeness of Shaolong Mansion, and now he felt that it was indeed a cold, wide and hard city, which was exactly the appearance of the western frontier of the empire.

So he understood Xu Chuo's words again, "Shenjing is very big, you just live your life." Everyone seems to have their own laughter and worries. Indeed, who would pay too much attention to the name "Pei Ye"? No matter how wonderful the story he carries, he is just one of them.

Perhaps what Shenjing lacks the most is not pavilions, towers and flowing gold and silver, but people with stories.

How many fish and dragons from all over the world have met here?

He was silent for a long time, and the black cat couldn't help but pat his face: "What are you thinking about?"

"."

Pei Ye was silent for a while, and said sullenly: "I found something, kitten."

"What?"

"It turns out that I haven't grown taller."
