"Why do you wear boots, isn't it hot?" Lu Sheng said casually. "Actually, your legs are the best place to look."
Chen Yunxi was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushed a little.
"Don't you like boots... Then I will show my legs from now on... just for you to see..."
Lu Sheng just said something casually, but he didn't expect... ..
The atmosphere between the two of them was a little weird for a while, they didn't speak any more, they just walked slowly on the grass.
Lu Sheng was in a daze for a moment.
Six months.
During the six months of recuperation, he did not encounter anything related to ghosts or ghosts, nor did he hear any news related to Duanmu Wan and Yan Kai. As if everything I encountered before was just an illusion, everything has returned to a peaceful and indifferent daily life.
If it weren't for the internal energy that was continuously circulating and growing in his body, if it wasn't for the dark blue modifier that he could call out to check at any time, maybe he would really think that he lived in a peaceful world without any ghosts.
"Brother Lu..." Chen Yunxi suddenly called out to him in a low voice, interrupting Lu Sheng's train of thought.
"What's wrong?" Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks.
Chen Yunxi lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, and said in a low voice: "My father... wants to invite you to my house as a guest and have a light meal together."
Lu Sheng was taken aback for a moment, is this considered to be seeing his parents? But he and Chen Yunxi are not considered a couple. Is this a bit too fast
"Brother Lu, don't you want to?" Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't reply, Chen Yunxi showed a hint of disappointment on his face, "It's just a light meal, Dad, he just wants to see what kind of person you are."
Seeing this, Lu Sheng was also speechless. He also had some affection for Chen Yunxi, but it hadn't reached that point yet, and the sudden development caught him off guard.
After pondering for a moment, he still said: "The students also want to meet, what kind of character is Mr. Chen who is a rich man."
When Chen Yunxi heard this, she immediately showed a smile: "Then you will be disappointed, my father is a bad old man, he likes to put on a straight face, but he is an old man in private!"
Lu Sheng laughed. But there is always a feeling of unreality, or in other words, a feeling of being out of place.
Next, if the other party's family is satisfied, then he should also bring Chen Yunxi to meet his father and second mother, and then the two families will make an engagement, prepare a bride price, set a good date and auspicious date, and then get married.
Of course, if all goes well. But to be honest, he had no intention of getting married so early in his heart.
"The New Year's Examination is coming soon. If I can pass this time, which academy would Brother Lu want to go to? This is related to the direction and height of our future career.
Last year's test questions, I found someone here to solve them specially. There are five different solutions. If Brother Lu needs it, Yunxi will send someone to send it to you, okay? "Chen Yunxi asked in a low voice. "Do more questions and try to figure out what the examiners are thinking this year. You can't go wrong. "
"I... then thank you Yunxi." Lu Sheng hesitated for a while, but still accepted it, but felt a little at a loss in his heart.
If it goes so smoothly, after passing the New Year's Examination, it will be the House Examination, then the Huiyuan Examination, and then the Palace Examination. If you can pass all the exams, you will be able to become an official in the end. And it won't be a petty official... ..It's no problem to be successful in the future.
but.
So what
He suddenly remembered the things that Duanmuwan had mentioned to him, if they were all true, then what's the point of him entering the court as an official
"If you can pass the New Year's Examination, you will have fame in the city, you can be regarded as a scholar, and you don't have to pay miscellaneous taxes. Even if you don't do anything in the future, you can rely on outsiders to depend on the fields and live a prosperous life. This is what many people dream of. , Brother Lu must have already made up his mind." Chen Yunxi whispered.
"Perhaps..." Lu Sheng smiled and didn't speak again.
No one knows that he has another identity, and no one knows that he is both internal and external, a formidable swordsman who can slay demons and ghosts, even a kone-level Jianghu expert cannot survive ten moves under his hands. Once it erupts, it is simply a humanoid tyrannosaurus.
The current him, his strength has been constantly improving with the black evil spirit that grows day and night.
The combination of Heisha Gong and Yuhe Gong complement each other, one to exercise the physical body, and the other to heal and repair the physical body, faintly forming a perfect cycle.
But at this time, in the eyes of Chen Yunxi, Song Zhenguo and others, he was still just a young master from a wealthy family who came from Jiulian City. Different from other country kids, Lu Sheng doesn't have that kind of country atmosphere, and his temperament is better than ordinary people. But that's all.
"However, in today's living environment, what's the point of me being an official? If the ghost force comes after the mansion, there is still nothing I can do. I can only rely on myself... In this situation Come on, is it true that you want to go to the martial arts test as the old man said?" He felt that he was out of tune with the people around him.
Hearing the sound of laughter and drinking from the gazebo, Lu Sheng felt a strange sense of isolation.
"Brother Lu, I heard that the dried grass and plums on Xixiang Street are delicious, and there are many dried fruit shops there, why don't we go and have a look together tomorrow night?" Chen Yunxi suggested in a low voice. "Tomorrow is a big festival. In previous years, the Dragon Dance Festival was very lively."
"Okay." Lu Sheng was also idle, waiting for news, he sent his servants to inquire about the news of the Red Whale Gang, and then spent money to buy a lot of valuable medicinal materials, the little money in his hand was long gone There are not many left.
Without money, the progress of practicing martial arts to nourish his body will slow down. He must find a way to make money as soon as possible.
After hanging out with Chen Yunxi for a while, this girl kept talking about the interesting things she had encountered in the academy, and also talked about the topics of the other companions they played together, she seemed to be in a good mood.
Lu Sheng walked a few more steps with her, and the two walked back slowly. A group of people had a few more drinks in the gazebo, then they all said goodbye and went home.
After bidding farewell to Chen Yunxi and Song Zhenguo and his group, Lu Sheng walked slowly on the street back.
When passing through the moat, a few mountain people carrying baskets were talking while entering the city.
"Songbaijiang is about to be unsealed?"
"It's about this time, and the fishing nets at my house are also ready, and I'll go catch them after the fishing ban is over." An old farmer laughed.
"If there is no high tide, the harvest should be good this year, after all, the fishing ban is so long."
"Exactly."
The mountain people carried vegetables from the mountains and swayed into the city.
Lu Sheng listened and smiled.
"Compared to Jiulian City, here is much more peaceful..." He sighed.
Quickly returning to his residence, the place where Lu Sheng lives now is a small house near the gate of the city. There is a winery under the two-storey building, and the second floor above is his Lu family's real estate. A total of three houses were opened up and became one.
For the sake of convenience, Lu Sheng didn't cook at home, so he directly ordered food at a restaurant next to the winery, and went to eat at a fixed time every day.
After eating, he went back to rest, instead of practicing inner qi, he took some ointment for nourishing blood qi, and went to bed early.
Early the next morning, he called a carriage and went straight to Xixiang Street.
Sitting in the carriage, Lu Sheng still felt a little sleepy. Thinking that his body might be lacking in strength, he reached out to touch the waist bag he carried with him.
After fumbling around in his waist pocket a few times, he took out a red pill and was about to take it when he suddenly felt something was wrong with him.
After carefully checking up and down, he suddenly took out a light yellow note from his sleeve.
The note was rolled into a tube, and it was glued to the inner wall of the sleeve very covertly. It's just that when he touched his waist back, he felt something wrong when he was touched.
"Huh?"
Lu Sheng took off the note and slowly unfolded it.
A few paragraphs were written concisely and clearly on the paper: "My lord, you can rest assured that Juan Renfu tried to control a terrifying ghost, and you have encountered a catastrophe, and your power has been wiped out, so you have no time to take care of your petty grievances with your lord." — Wan. '
With a blank expression on his face, Lu Sheng rewound the scroll and put it in his waist pocket.
"Duanmuwan turned out to be still paying attention to me...."
"Janren's Mansion has always been the enemy I worry about. A powerful force that can control demons and ghosts. At my current level, I can't fight against it. I didn't expect that it would be destroyed if it was destroyed...." Lu Sheng once again felt that the world was too big. Dangerous.
After putting away the paper scroll, after waiting for a while, the carriage stopped slowly, in front of the Xunyang Building that he had made an appointment with Song Zhenguo, Chen Yunxi and others.
When Lu Sheng got out of the car, he saw the entrance of Xunyang Tower, crowded with people coming in and out.
Twelve stories high, the red Xunyang Building like a stupa, at this time, every floor below the tenth floor is crowded with people who come to watch the dragon dance.
The hawkers took the opportunity to sell their goods, and the cries of selling goods were chaotic and endless.
Lu Sheng squeezed through the crowd, advanced to the first floor, and went up to the tenth floor. The number of people gradually decreased, and it was no longer overcrowded.
"But Mr. Lu?" As soon as he reached the tenth floor, a maid came to ask.
"This way, brother Lu!" Song Zhenguo and his group were already waving towards this side.
Chen Yunxi was also over there, changing into a delicate green close-fitting long dress, which perfectly highlighted the girl's pretty figure. A head of long hair was loosely let down, only slightly tied at the end with a green ribbon.
Lu Sheng walked over with a smile.
"And thank you for grabbing me such a good layer!"
Song Zhenguo waved his hands again and again: "This is because we are in your favor. Yunxi found a relationship and made a special trip to hold a banquet for you, Mr. Lu."
"That's right, if it wasn't for Miss Yunxi's action, I'm afraid I'd be able to get up to the ninth floor at most, but I won't be able to get up to the tenth floor." Another student followed with a smile. This man's surname is Wang and his name is Ziquan. He is from Zihua City, and he is also a handsome man who can be compared with Song Zhenguo in appearance. The relationship with Lu Sheng is also okay.
"No, it's just a coincidence... I happened to meet an acquaintance..." Chen Yunxi was embarrassed by the words, and stole a glance at Lu Sheng with a blushing face.
Lu Sheng sighed in his heart, smiled at Chen Yunxi, and took the initiative to take a seat.
A group of people began to chat and drink in a lively manner, and then sang a few limericks that they thought were romantic and literary, and the atmosphere was lively.
Lu Sheng was arranged to sit with Chen Yunxi, and there were two other girls, one next to Song Zhenguo, and the other next to another college student with a cold face. They all appear to be in pairs.
Boom!
Huge golden fireworks suddenly exploded outside the Xunyang Tower, turning into a huge peony in the night.
"It's started! It's started!!" Everyone cheered and got up and rushed to the side of the building to watch.
