"My little junior brother is really good at causing trouble."
In the small wine shop deep in the old street, Gu Haoran put his hands into his robe sleeves and said in a rather helpless tone: "I have only been back for a short time, and he has made such a big fuss. If he is given another period of time, I am afraid that the imperial capital will be destroyed." He’s going to turn everything upside down.”
Yao Dou, who was sitting in the corner, hummed: "I only know how to play some tricks. If it were me, I would kill that old guy named Wen Zhengrong directly!"
Gu Haoran looked at him and said with a smile: "Yao Dou, you can say this now, but if you give my junior brother a few more years, I'm afraid you won't have the guts to be so crazy anymore."
"So what if I give him a few years?" Yao Dou shrugged, "Just a sword cultivator."
"Sword cultivator, what's wrong?"
At this time, a smiling voice sounded outside the shop.
Yao Dou immediately looked like a frustrated quail, and said with a smile, "Aunt Lu, why are you here?"
Mrs. Lu led the girl in black and walked into the shop, then she replied: "I heard that Jing Chi brought out some jars of his fine wine to entertain us today. Why, you, Aunt Lu, are not welcome to take a sip of the wine." ?”
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "You brat, after staying in Jing Chi's shop for a while, you learned 80% of his stingy spirit."
Hearing this, Yao Dou quickly stood up, limped and packed up the table and chairs, "Aunt Lu, sit down quickly, sit down quickly."
Mrs. Lu led the girl to sit next to Gu Haoran.
But the girl stared at Yao Dou with a dull expression and said in a cold voice: "You look down on sword cultivators?"
The smile on Yao Dou's face froze and he avoided the girl's eyes.
He didn't dare to argue with this little girl.
More importantly, Yao Dou still had the confidence to refuse to accept Gu Haoran's previous words on Lu Li. But this little girl in front of her is different. Give her a few more years, and her achievements will scare the world.
This also includes Yao Dou.
In other words, although Yao Dou can beat this girl now, he will definitely not be her opponent in the future.
In order to avoid being beaten in the future, Yao Dou cleverly shut his mouth and pretended not to hear anything.
When Gu Haoran saw this scene, he sneered: "Coward, my junior brother will definitely say that you are a loser when he sees you."
"If you open your mouth or shut up, you are your junior brother. Your junior brother defrauded my deer clan's things. How do you want to settle this account?" Mrs. Lu poured a cup of tea herself, with a hint of ridicule in her words. , looked at Gu Haoran.
Gu Haoran said: "He passed on the Snow Sword on his own volition, I didn't ask for any favor."
"Besides, strictly speaking, he is the current leader of the Deer Clan. The Snow-cutting Sword is also his own sword technique. Even if he wants to settle the score, he has to come to me personally."
Gu Haoran treated others with his own methods and said with a smile: "Does Madam Lu want to bring the two groups together to bring the Deer Clan back to its former peak?"
Mrs. Lu drank her tea slowly and said, "A sister is like a mother. Even if he is the orthodox patriarch of the Deer Clan, I am still his eldest sister. Am I still not in control of his affairs?"
Gu Haoran curled his lips in boredom when he saw her evasive appearance.
Sure enough, no matter what state a woman reaches, she is an unreasonable existence.
"I heard you two arguing here in the wine cellar. Why, are you trying to use this business to drink today?"
At this time, shopkeeper Jing walked out of the inner hall carrying two jars of fine wine. He looked at the atmosphere between the two and said with a smile, "Why didn't you invite the old man here today?"
"The old man refused to come, and..." Gu Haoran was talking, as if he remembered something, he hesitated and shook his head.
"That's right, his granddaughter's temper is really hard to deal with."
Shopkeeper Jing knew what Gu Haoran wanted to say.
Usually the old man was willful in everything, and the calm and quiet woman followed him, but when it came to drinking, the old man had no say.
"Forget it at the medical center, where are the two stinky chess baskets?"
Shopkeeper Jing put the wine down and suddenly thought of something and asked.
"The same goes for those two guys. One said he was good at drinking but not fond of drinking, and the other said he liked drinking but not good at drinking. They ended up playing chess together."
Gu Haoran shook his head.
Each of these weirdos living in the old street has some quirks, and the only ones who can really communicate with each other on weekdays are these few people here.
"It's a pity that Old Dong hasn't come back yet, otherwise there would be one more person today." Shopkeeper Jing didn't ask any more questions, broke the mud seal, signaled Yao Dou to get the wine bowl, and poured a bowl for Mrs. Lu and Gu Haoran. , the rich aroma of wine suddenly spread out and filled the entire shop.
The silent girl in black sitting nearby smelled the fragrance, her eyes immediately lit up, and she cast a longing look at Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu wanted to solve it, but Shopkeeper Jing said: "The child is not young anymore, can you still control her for the rest of her life?"
This sentence had a certain meaning, which caused Mrs. Lu's expression to change slightly, and then became quite gloomy.
"Try it." Shopkeeper Jing poured a bowl of wine for the girl and pushed it in front of her.
This time, Mrs. Deer did not stop.
The girl was stunned, holding the wine bowl in both hands. After hesitating for a long time, she picked it up and took a sip.
The peculiar smell made her eyes brighter, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks as white and tender as mutton fat and warm jade.
"good."
She made a very old-fashioned comment, which made shopkeeper Jing slightly startled, and then he smiled and said: "Since it tastes good, drink more."
After saying that, he also sat down and said to Yao Dou: "You can come and drink too."
Yao Dou was startled at first, and then said with a bad expression: "You have to pay me if you treat me well."
"The salary is yours." Shopkeeper Jing said angrily, "Just sit down when I tell you to. Why is there all this nonsense?"
After hearing this, Yao Dou sat down dubiously, and then poured himself a bowl of wine.
Gu Haoran did not touch the bowl of wine, but looked at shopkeeper Jing and said, "Have you really made your decision?"
After hearing his words, Yao Dou stopped and Mrs. Lu sighed.
Only the girl in black, who was already slightly tipsy, was still there, sipping her wine as if no one else was watching.
Shopkeeper Jing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's decided."
After saying that, he saw that the atmosphere was a little solid, so he smiled and said: "The situation in the Tiantian Holy Kingdom is a bit bad now. If you continue to stay here, you will be involved sooner or later. This is somewhat contrary to my original intention, not to mention, the current I have already figured out a lot of things, and there is no point in hiding anymore."
"Then you should know that once you leave the Tiantian Holy Kingdom, you will be found by those people immediately."
Gu Haoran said calmly: "When the time comes, no one will help you, you can only rely on yourself."
"Don't worry, even if they really find me, I will be different now than I was then." Shopkeeper Jing said with a smile: "What's more, in my whole life, Jing Chi, have I ever asked for help?"
"As long as you know what's going on, I won't say more."
Gu Haoran nodded.
Mrs. Lu sighed: "We have known each other for many years, and your farewell drink today is really not a good taste."
"Mrs. Lu's words are serious. Even if I leave in the future, there will be a chance to see you again."
Shopkeeper Jing took a sip of wine and then said: "But at that time, we will meet in Daxue State."
"Yes, when the time comes, we will still have a chance to meet in Daxue State."
Mrs. Lu smiled slightly and said nothing more.
"It's not a farewell, there is no need to be sad. After drinking this wine, I have to wipe the butt of my junior brother, so I won't talk to you anymore." Gu Haoran took a sip of wine, his tone was quite helpless. meaning.
Shopkeeper Jing asked curiously: "Where did Prince Yan really go? Isn't she afraid that your little junior brother will bring down Prince Yan's mansion?"
"She's a crazy woman!"
When this topic was mentioned, Gu Haoran seemed to have been stabbed in some kind of pain, and said excitedly: "How dangerous is that place? If she can't come back, how should I explain to my junior brother?"
"Explain what?"
Madam Lu immediately caught the key point of his words and said with a smile: "Does your junior brother have any thoughts about King Yan?"
Gu Haoran immediately shut up.
The few people present are not good people.
And they all know that people like Mu Hongxiu will not be bound by emotions at all, because they are the same kind of people.
"If your junior brother really has that idea, you'd better persuade him to give it up as soon as possible, otherwise Mu Hongxiu will find out and might kill him with her own hands." Madam Lu suddenly reminded her.
Gu Haoran sighed: "Even I can't see through my little junior brother's thoughts. To be honest, I don't know what he is thinking at all. If I just have a crush on that crazy woman Mu Hongxiu, I won't either It’s such a headache.”
"Now he has joined forces with Wanshitang to release the news about the inheritance from the upper world in order to deceive Zhengrong. This method is the same as Zhenguojin, and it seems that many people have already believed the news. If he is If Wen Zhengrong continues like this, although Wen Zhengrong will definitely die, how will this matter end? If those people can't find the inheritance from the upper world, follow the clues and find Wanshitang, and then catch him, the culprit of spreading rumors... "
When Gu Haoran said this, he said helplessly: "The traps he pokes out every time are not small, and they are more shocking every time. If I, as a senior brother, weren't a bit capable, I would have been scared to death by him."
"Who made you agree to accept Mu Hongxiu as your master's sect?"
Shopkeeper Jing said with a smile: "But I'm really curious. Even if you owed King Yan a favor back then, you haven't considered this important matter of accepting a disciple as a master? Or..."
After a pause, he seemed to remember something, "Do you really think highly of your junior brother and think he may be stronger than your second junior brother in the future?"
"Whether he is stronger than my second junior brother is still unknown for the time being, but in terms of his ability to cause trouble, he is indeed better than my second junior brother now..." Gu Haoran smiled helplessly, stood up silently and said: " I’ve finished drinking the wine, I’ll take the first step.”
