Rolling his eyes, Xie Zhanning muttered to himself, "Huahua, did I go too far just now and lose my temper with Master for no reason?"

"Meow!" Hua Hua suddenly made an angry sound, Xie Zhanning frowned, and couldn't help laughing, "Yes, you are right, it is my fault, I will go and apologize to Master."

Xie Zhanning put Huahua down and thought about it: "But where is Master..."

"Uncle Zhaohua said that he has business to discuss with Master, yes, Zhaohua Hall." Xie Zhanning walked towards Zhaohua Hall.

Fu Zhaohua lay down with his eyes closed, "Come?"

"Hmm." Gu Lichen replied sullenly.

Fu Zhaohua still closed his eyes, and said lazily, "What? Are you fighting again?"

Gu Lichen glanced at Fu Zhaohua, and said timidly, "No way."

Fu Zhaohua snorted coldly and said, "I see, there are."

Gu Lichen laughed and said, "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, what's the real thing you're talking about?

"There is a severe drought in Yizhou, and the disaster seems to have spread to the area around Tianshui Town." Fu Zhaohua opened his eyes with a solemn expression.

Gu Lichen asked doubtfully, "There's a severe drought in Yizhou?"

Fu Zhaohua nodded, and stretched out his hand to draw a mirror in front of the two of them. In the mirror, it seemed to be what Yizhou looked like today, "Look."

"You want to say that the drought in Yizhou is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster?" Gu Lichen looked at Xuan Guangjing, wondering what he was thinking.

Fu Zhaohua's voice trembled slightly, "Brother, I'm just afraid..."

Gu Lichen knew what Fu Zhaohua was afraid of. He was afraid that this matter might be related to Shi Shuliu, "Zhaohua, I will go to Yizhou myself."

"Brother..." Fu Zhaohua nodded, before he was about to say something, he suddenly shouted to the figure in the dark, "Come out! How sneaky is he?"

"Uncle Master, Master." It turned out that the sneaky person was none other than Xie Zhanning.

"Zhanning?" Gu Lichen raised his brows lightly, with a look of hesitation.

Fu Zhaohua asked, "Zhanning, did you hear what you just said?"

Xie Zhanning nodded and said, "Yes, I heard everything."

"..." Gu Lichen glanced at Xie Zhanning, but did not criticize too much.

Fu Zhaohua shook his head and said, "In that case, you can go to Yizhou with your master."

"Really? Uncle, I can go too?" Xie Zhanning couldn't hide the joy on his face, he was naturally [-]% happy.

Gu Lichen said angrily, "Zhaohua."

Fu Zhaohua glanced at Gu Lichen, and said, "Really."

Gu Lichen shook his head, and said helplessly: "Zhanning, Master's going to Yizhou is not for fun. The good and bad times of this trip are unpredictable, and we don't know what kind of dangerous changes will happen."

"It's because good or bad luck is unpredictable that I want to follow Master!" Xie Zhanning's expression was extremely determined, he would never let Gu Lichen leave him alone to take risks.

"Zhanning, you." Gu Lichen couldn't resist Xie Zhanning the most, Fu Zhaohua saw that the two were at a stalemate, and persuaded: "Brother, let Zhanning go with you, he is not a child anymore, Always try to let him go on his own."

Xie Zhanning answered quickly: "Yes, yes, what Uncle Master said is exactly what I want to say."

"..." Gu Lichen sighed softly, Fu Zhaohua smiled and said, "Zhanning, your master agrees."

Xie Zhanning smiled and said, "Thank you uncle, thank you master."

Gu Lichen waved his hands and walked out, "Zhanning, come out."

Xie Zhanning said: "Uncle Master, Zhanning has resigned."

"Well." Fu Zhaohua waved his hand, watching the two drift away, Fu Zhaohua smiled, "The two of them don't know whether they have a good relationship or a bad relationship."

Gu Lichen stopped and asked, "Zhanning, are you really going to Yizhou?"

"Really." Xie Zhanning was extremely firm, "Master, don't even think about leaving me behind."

Gu Lichen helplessly supported his forehead and sighed, "Forget it, when you arrive in Yizhou, remember to listen to Master in everything."

Xie Zhanning nodded, with an extremely nice smile on his face, "Well, the disciple must obey the teacher's order."

Gu Lichen reached out and tapped Xie Zhanning's forehead lightly, and said with a smile, "Let's go, go back to Heguangyuan."

Xie Zhanning foolishly touched his forehead, and said with a smile, "Yeah."

"Meow~" As soon as they entered Heguangyuan, Huahua strode towards the two of them. Xie Zhanning squatted down and wanted to rub Huahua's head, "Huahua."

"Meow~meow~" Huahua lowered her body, walked around Xie Zhanning's hands, and rubbed against Gu Lichen's legs. Xie Zhanning smiled awkwardly, "Huahua is always so clingy to Master, she doesn't care about me."

Gu Lichen also squatted down, hugged Huahua into his arms, and said with a smile, "Why, maybe you're jealous?"

Xie Zhanning opened his round eyes, and raised his voice several times, "Eat, jealous? Why are you jealous?"

Gu Lichen touched Huahua's head, and smiled nicely at Xie Zhanning, "Huahua is close to me but distant from you, so you are jealous."

Xie Zhanning pursed his lips, and said with disdain, "Tch, I'm not jealous of it."

"Oh, is that so?" Gu Lichen still smiled gently.

Xie Zhanning looked at the person in front of him who was so gentle that he seemed to be oozing water, he didn't dare to look at him for a moment, he couldn't help lowering his head, and whispered: "...you really don't know, I'm jealous of you ?"

"Zhanning, what did you say?" Gu Lichen didn't know what Xie Zhanning was muttering, Xie Zhanning lazily shook his head, and said softly, "No, nothing."

Gu Lichen pursed his lips and said, "Okay, let's rest early today, and tomorrow we will leave for Yizhou."

Gu Lichen was holding Huahua and was about to go to the bedroom, Xie Zhanning snatched Huahua from Gu Lichen's arms, curled his lips and said, "Huahua wants to sleep with me today."

Gu Lichen couldn't help being stunned for a while, and he recovered after a while, and said with a smile, "Zhanning, you still say you're not jealous?"

"Hmph." Xie Zhanning hugged Huahua and ran quickly, Gu Lichen shook his head with a smile, turned around and went back to the bedroom.

Xie Zhanning lay on the bed, stroking Huahua lying beside him, and said to himself, "Huahua, when will Master know my intentions?"

"Huh~huh~" Huahua was already snoring from sleep, Xie Zhanning turned over, "Forget it, it's useless to ask you, sleep."

62. When I See Rain for the First Time

"The witch? Yes, I am the witch."

Early the next morning, Gu Lichen packed his luggage and called Xie Zhanning, "Zhanning, are you ready?"

Xie Zhanning pushed the door and came out, "Well, it's ready."

"Meow~" Huahua followed the two of them all the way from Heguangyuan to the outer gate of Qianyanzong. Gu Lichen knelt down and scratched Huahua's chin, and said softly: "Huahua~ We are going on a long trip, I don't know How many days will it take to come back, if you have anything to do, go to Zhaohua, you know?"

"Meow~" Huahua greedily rubbed back and forth against Gu Lichen's palm.

Fu Zhaohua was currently teaching his disciples the Zongmen's martial arts in the martial arts field, and suddenly sneezed, "Ah! What's going on, how could there be such an ominous premonition."

The two Yujian rushed all the way to the outskirts of Yizhou. Xie Zhanning looked at the tall city gate in front of him. The word 'Yizhou' was written on the gate board, "Is this the city of Yizhou?"

The gate of Yizhou city is majestic and majestic, but inside the city is a gloomy look. There are no shops, no one to buy and sell, and no one to take care of the streets. A gust of wind blows, and countless dead branches and rotten leaves come. Xie Zhanning was overwhelmed by the dead branches The rotten leaf choked and coughed, "Ahem...Master, is Yizhou City like this?"

"..." Gu Lichen frowned, shook his head and did not reply, Xie Zhanning covered his mouth and nose and asked again: "Master, do you know what the former Yizhou was like?"

Gu Lichen said: "In the past, I also came to Yizhou City once. At that time, Yizhou was still a prosperous and prosperous city, but now I can't even see what it used to be." As soon as Gu Lichen finished speaking, the two were surrounded by a group of beggars.

"You two young masters, please do me a favor and enjoy the food."

"Brother, I'm hungry."

"Two young masters, let's enjoy the food."

Speaking of beggars, Xie Zhanning used to be half of his colleagues, but now he doesn't have any money with him, so he can't give them alms, "Master..."

"Here." Gu Lichen untied the money bag from his waist and handed it to Xie Zhanning.

"Thank you, master." Xie Zhanning took the purse, grabbed some loose change and started distributing it, "Your, your, yours, everything, everything..."

What Xie Zhanning didn't expect was that after he handed out some money for a while, more people rushed towards him, completely surrounding the two of them.

"Money, it's money!"

"They have money!"

"Ah! Hand, my hand! Someone stepped on my hand!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

More and more people came around, not only beggars, but even ordinary people all rushed in. The scene was in chaos and out of control, Xie Zhanning shouted loudly: "Don't rob, don't rob!"

Gu Lichen helped up the little girl who was pushed to the ground, and said softly, "Come on, get up."

Xie Zhanning has never seen such a scene, he was originally a good intention, but now he seems to have done something bad, "Master, how could this happen?"

Gu Lichen took Xie Zhanning's hand, and flashed out of the crowd in an instant, "The drought in Yizhou seems to have lasted for a long time, and this little money alone can't save them. Right now, we can only end the disaster." Only by rooting at the root can we help them thoroughly.”

"En." Xie Zhanning nodded, and then looked back at the crowd.

The more Gu Lichen walked into the city, the more he felt a burst of demonic energy, "...strange..."

Xie Zhanning asked, "What's so strange?"

Gu Lichen pointed to the still-dried bluestone slabs and potholes with accumulated water, "Yizhou is located on a plain, and water conservancy projects are being built, and it rains from time to time, depending on the situation, it has been raining continuously in the past few days."
