In the lobby of the restaurant, the swordsman looked at the purple lightning that was still in front of him as if he was frightened. This is the season of frequent thunderstorms, but this is the first time he has seen the fleeting lightning so closely.

The electric arc at the edge is close at hand, and the twisted purple beam of light is filled with the aura of destroying everything.

Not only him, but even Chao Xiaoshu. In the thirty years since he was a child, he has seen countless mind masters and talisman masters. Among them are the so-called Fate Knowing Realm. None of these people can control the mighty power of nature. .

Does recruiting thunder mean that one can summon rain?

How far has this friend, who looks a bit embarrassed, practiced?

Chao Xiaoshu turned his head to look at Zhou Ji, Zhou Ji pointed at the swordsman's brow, and said with a smile, "Would you like to surrender?"

Seeing the thunder light approaching again, the swordsman stood up straight towards the arc light as if his beard and hair were attracted by the electric arc. He couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple, and immediately knelt down, begging Zhou Ji to spare his life.

"I've always disliked killing people, but this will reduce the number of killings."

Zhou Ji smiled calmly, waved his hand to disperse the thunder, glanced at the disciples of the Cao Gang who were lying on the ground pretending to be dizzy, looked at Chao Xiaoshu and said, "Chao Xiaoshu, I will leave the rest to you."

As Zhou Ji said, he left casually, the ground was covered with blood and did not touch the hem of his clothes, the swordsman knelt on the ground, the broad-backed long knife was at hand, and from the corner of his eyes, he aimed at the back of the bloodless figure who looked like a ghost, hesitating for a moment, or Did not dare to pick up the weapon again.

"Haven't asked your friend's name yet?" He took a step towards Xiaoshu, leaving a deep footprint on the bloody ground, but saw Zhou Ji's footsteps paused, his hair swaying slightly with the breeze, his figure seemed to be dazzled by the sun, and he turned his head sideways. He smiled lightly, "If I see you next time, I'll tell you."

It's really nice to appear holy in front of people, but it's a pity that the gender is wrong.

Zhou Ji curled his lips, and passed through the empty market, the surroundings gradually became noisy, a group of strong men in short robes hurried past by the side of the path, and learned from the street vendors who dodged that this group of people were local The Fish and Dragon Gang, presumably the people who just returned from the Cao Gang and came to support Chao Xiaoshu.

After wandering around the city for a while, I came to a long alley unknowingly. The alley was long and deep, but with a strong fragrance of makeup and powder. Only half of Zhou Jixing realized that he had arrived in the city of Chang'an. The famous red sleeve move.

Speaking of which, he hasn't been to this kind of place of smoke and willows for many, many years. When was the last time he visited a brothel? Zhou Ji opened the dusty memory for a long time, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

But nostalgia is nostalgia, Zhou Ji didn't intend to go in and have a look.

If you want to come, you will come again at night.

After all, it's still early in the morning, how can anyone go shopping in brothels in broad daylight?

Zhou Ji raised his eyes and happened to see a small head peeking down at the fence on the second floor. He vaguely heard the name of "Xiao Shuizhuer~" shouted from inside the building. The little head quickly shrank back and ran away. elsewhere.

Zhou Ji laughed dumbfoundedly, turned around and walked out of the alley, at the end of the long alley, there was an old man beckoning at Hongxiu.

Uh. Really? !

Zhou Ji couldn't help but take another look at the other party. The old man was nearly sixty years old and had a thin body, but his cloudy eyes seemed to reveal a background as vast as the sea and as deep as the abyss. The two kept walking, and their figures intertwined. Zhou Jizhi looked back at the back of the old man at the entrance of the alley, vaguely guessing the identity of the other party.

The world's number one talisman master. The owner of the Shocking God Formation in Chang'an Village, Yan Se.

However, Zhou Ji wanted to get acquainted with big beauties and cute girls more than rough men and old men. He raised his foot and left from the alley. Yan Se seemed to have a feeling and turned to look at the alley, only to find that the long alley was empty and had long since disappeared. Zhou Ji's figure.

Back at the restaurant, it was almost dusk, and I learned from Xiaoer that an intermediary Yazi had come to see him during the day, but unfortunately he was not there during the day, saying that he would come to see him tomorrow morning.

Zhou Ji went to Hongxiu Zhao to sit for a while that night, looking at Yingying and Yanyan beside him, he suddenly felt that something was missing, until a girl picked up the pear cake on the table and put it to her lips, the sweetness of the petals left a fragrance on her lips and teeth, The aftertaste was slightly bitter, which made him react just now.

It turned out that there was someone missing by my side, a person I hadn't mentioned for a long time, but who was hidden deep in my heart.

Come up and come back.

Walking out of the brightly lit long alley, passing through the crowd hugging left and right, Zhou Ji walked alone on the empty and deserted street. In the distance, only the sound of clappers echoing in the middle of the night. Under the moonless night sky, under his feet was He couldn't even see the shadow of his companion, and he was obviously used to being alone for a long time, but unconsciously, he felt a trace of undetectable loneliness.

There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn in a blink of an eye.

The intermediary Yazi who was looking for before had already been waiting downstairs in the inn, and when he saw Zhou Ji coming downstairs, he hurried over to greet him.

Follow him to the east of the city, walk along the inner city river, and stop at the end of a street.

Zhou Ji glanced at the elegant and quiet small lake next to it, and then at a two-story small building built by the lake. The house is not very big, and there is a small courtyard behind it, which looks really good.

It's a pity that this house is located at the end of a street, no matter how deserted the street is, it is essentially a shop.

Going up to the second floor, standing in front of the fence and looking at the lake view in front of him, Zhou Ji agreed after a little thought, and decided to buy this shop. After waiting in the yard alone for a while, Yazi led a middle-aged swordsman out of the house .

Even if he didn't turn his head, Zhou Ji could still hear his breathing tense and his heart beating extremely fast. Presumably, Yazi himself didn't expect that it was just a small matter of buying and selling a store, and he bothered the legendary big boss to follow him for a while. trip.

"Unexpectedly, this shop is actually your property." Zhou Ji turned around helplessly, looked at Chao Xiaoshu in front of him, and lowered his head to glance at the title deed on the table. Catching sight, Yazi waited quietly with a pen and ink, put it in front of Zhou Ji with a flattering expression, and then quickly backed away.

Chao Xiaoshu smiled, "Can you tell me your name now, friend?"

There is nothing more embarrassing in the world than being slapped in the face for appearing in front of others.

Zhou Ji touched his nose, and then exchanged names with Chao Xiaoshu.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Ji learned that the swordsman had taken the remaining dozens of gang members to join Chao Xiaoshu yesterday, and now the Cao Gang is also controlled by Chao Xiaoshu. He jumped to fame, and became a well-known faction in Chang'an City in just two years.

Once again, I expressed my gratitude to Zhou Ji for his action yesterday, but Zhou Ji didn't care much about it. Even if he didn't make an action yesterday, the swordsman was not Chao Xiaoshu's opponent, but more people died. Just slower.

Seeing that Zhou Ji didn't take it seriously, Chao Xiaoshu had no choice but to keep his gratitude in his heart, and then asked, "Young master Zhou bought this shop, what kind of business do you want to do?"

"Well, I didn't have time to think about it." Zhou Ji glanced at the empty hall, then at the pens and inks on the table, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Then I'll open one." Penzhai, do you sell ink treasures in your spare time?"

"Bi Zhai?" Chao Xiaoshu nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "Just now I saw Mr. Zhou's signature, the calligraphy is extremely extraordinary, it would be nice to open a family brush studio."

As soon as he thought about it, he did it. Zhou Ji raised his foot and walked out of the house, followed by Chao Xiaoshu and Yazi. From a distance, he saw Zhou Ji standing on the street, pointing his sword at the lintel.

Going out to look at Xiaoshu, I saw that the lintel plaque had been wiped off, leaving a blank space for a word on the far right. Beside the blank space, the pen was like a sword, or the blade was like a pen. The sawdust was flying, revealing a sharp pen Fast' word.

Although it was in the form of three characters, but there were only two characters, Chao Xiaoshu looked at Zhou Ji suspiciously, but Zhou Ji nodded in satisfaction, clapped his hands, and returned to the shop.

Summer goes and autumn comes, at the end of autumn and winter solstice.

The furnishings in the pen studio gradually increased, and it didn't look as empty as before. Zhou Ji also gradually regained the feeling of living alone. Occasionally, he slipped into the old library to write to the female teacher in his spare time. According to the letter, after learning that Zhou Ji opened a pen studio in Forty-seventh Lane in the east of the city, she came here once, but as the weather entered autumn and winter was approaching, she became less fond of going out, and sometimes He would sit at the desk and write scripts all day long, only during the few days when he was in the academy for assessment, did he come forward to preside over the next three tests.

That is to say, in this year, among hundreds of students gathered from all over the world, one person finally stood out and caused a sensation in the academy with the name of first-class in six subjects.

Of course, no matter how good Chen Pippi's grades in the six subjects were, it only caused a sensation in the academy, and the one who shocked the entire Tang Dynasty was the eldest daughter of His Majesty, the eldest princess of the Tang Empire, Li Yu, who was sent to the wasteland to meet with her. The Golden Tent Royal Court and relatives.

The comment "The night covers the stars and the country will be restless" has flowed from the imperial court to the market, and even Zhou Ji heard it from a street corner peddler. Although this reason is absurd, under the background of this era, it is undeniable. Even the king of Tang could not reverse the general trend.

On the day of the wedding, Zhou Ji did not go to Zhuque Street to watch the eldest princess get married, but sneaked into the academy to see if the master would return to the mountain.

In the past, when he came to the academy, he would leave his words on the desk in the old library building until the night when no one was there. Now it was bright daylight, and the students in the academy were all disturbed by the marriage of the Tang Dynasty. Zhou Ji walked through the grass all the way. Dian, came to an old old book building, but found a middle-aged man wearing a black gold-painted robe standing in front of the building, exuding an imposing manner without anger, bowing towards the door, as if asking for something.

After a while, the man let out a long sigh, and slowly straightened his waist. The obeisance just now was for the daughter of the family, and the straight waist was for the people of Datang.

Seeing the lost figure of that person, Zhou Ji quietly walked out from the corridor, sighing, "He must be the king of the Tang Dynasty, right?"

'When the night covers the stars, the country will be restless'

The female teacher didn't seem surprised by Zhou Ji's arrival, she quietly added the description to the book, got up and came to the door, and stood across the threshold from Zhou Ji, "Three people become tigers, and people's words are terrifying. No matter what Believe in your daughter, public opinion will eventually shake your heart."

Looking up at Zhou Ji, the estranged and flat eyes seemed to have not changed for more than half a year, and the female teacher said calmly, "Master is back, and I agree to see you."

After finishing speaking, the female teacher turned around and walked towards the stairs. The wooden stairs babbled softly. The two of them were one step apart from each other, and their height was almost the same. Zhou Ji seemed to be able to smell a faint fragrance of grass and trees lingering at the tip of his nose. He didn't hate this It's a smell, as if the female teacher in front doesn't hate that there is only a first-order distance between the two.

Ascending to the second floor, the female teacher paused, Zhou Ji almost bumped into her, touched his nose in embarrassment, the female teacher glanced back at Zhou Ji, Rou Yi caressed the bookshelf, and a door opened from the bookshelf. The two sides are opened, revealing the beautiful scenery of the mountain behind the academy.

There is more than one road up the mountain, and the second floor leads to a half-hillside.

Looking from a distance, there is thick fog behind, and the long mountain road on the other side is looming in the fog. Following the female instructor all the way forward, the sound of rushing streams came from the forest, and sections of flat bluestones separated the two pieces. The water pools of different heights are separated, and the upstream is close to the waterfall, the water splashes, and the moisture blows to the face; the downstream water flows gently, quietly flowing into the quiet lake in the distance.

The two stepped on the slightly wet field ridges one after the other, walked on a wooden bridge, and came to the lake as calm as a mirror.

A big white goose in the lake floats and sinks from time to time, preying on small fish in the water. Whether it succeeds or fails, it proudly raises its head, or swallows the fish's belly, or shakes off the water droplets on its feathers. The footsteps on the bridge attracted the attention of the big white goose, but it was obviously not very afraid of people, but seemed to be curious and very spiritual.

The outside world has entered the cold winter, but the vegetation in the mountains is as luxuriant as spring and summer. Zhou Ji faintly sensed a hint of danger from the breath of this big white goose. Don't look at this is just a big goose with a slightly bigger body. When a tree meets, it is not necessarily its opponent.

Seeing the female teacher walk away, Zhou Ji's Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes were turned away from the big goose. If the big goose with such pure spiritual power is stewed in an iron pot, it must be delicious.

Continuing to walk, Zhou Ji saw a woman in a light yellow dress, who was embroidering on a frame by the lake; in the distance, there were people playing the qin and flute, or someone quenching iron, or someone playing a game of chess. They would say "Third Senior Sister" to the female teacher, and at the same time look at Zhou Ji with curiosity and a little playfulness.

Coming to another hillside above the lake, there are more than a dozen houses located in it. Before the two of them approached, Zhou Ji saw a tall hair crown showing a corner in the forest, a kind of awe-inspiring arrogance He came towards him through the woods, but was blocked by the female teacher calmly in front of Zhou Ji.

"Meet the second senior brother."

Jun Mo nodded slightly, and after returning the salute to Yu Lian, he stood proudly, looked Zhou Ji up and down, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "No wonder you dare to come in and out of the academy as if it were your own home, it is comparable to the realm of knowing fate, far beyond the realm of knowing fate As far as cultivation is concerned, Your Excellency has some confidence."

Zhou Ji felt something in his heart, and turned his head to look behind Jun Mo. At some point, an old man with white beard and hair appeared in the courtyard, looking at him with the same astonishment as Jun Mo.

The same surprise, but the meaning is completely different.

(The original work of Chen Pipi seems to be "the first class in six subjects five years ago". Here, in order to fit Ye Hongyu's age, it is changed to ten years ago.)
