Angelica returns

"Finally woke up."

Zhou Tingyu woke up from drunkenness, and what he saw when he opened his eyes was Xiangyao's expression of hating iron and steel, and the all-too-familiar room furnishings.

"When Shunzi dragged you back, you were unstoppable." Xiangyao said harshly, but he did not forget to hand the boiled bitter ginseng soup to Zhou Tingyu's mouth, "Drink it while it's hot."

Zhou Tingyu sat up with the support of the bed, swallowed the soup in one gulp, wondering, "Shunzi brought me back? When?"

Xiangyao nodded, "Three or four hours ago, look, it's getting dark."

Drunk fragments.Zhou Tingyu knew that he went to Qingfeng Zilai and drank a lot of wine, but he couldn't figure out when he was drunk. He vaguely remembered that when he was drunk, his ears kept making noises. He knew that someone was talking, but he didn't know what he was talking about. up.But in a trance, he seemed to see a dazzling red, shining brightly in front of his eyes.

Is it a dream?

"I've slept for so long..." Zhou Tingyu rubbed his temples, his face full of fatigue, "I really need to drink less next time..."

"It's good to know. If I didn't come to visit my uncle and found that you were not at home, I sent Shunzi to look for you, and you would still have to lie on your stomach in Qingfeng Zilai."

"Sister Xiangyao, you mainly came to see me for something, right?" Zhou Tingyu rolled his eyes inwardly - he said to see my father, but he was concerned about whether I was there, not because he was looking for something...

"You're clever, but I'm also here to visit my uncle. And you probably don't know that Mr. went to Laihu County a few days ago and came back today..."

"Why did he go to Laihu County?!" Zhou Tingyu interrupted Xiangyao, and when he heard this person, he subconsciously felt nauseous.

"Maybe it's because the news over there is too slow. You also know that whenever a crime occurs in Laihu County, Wang Zhi must first investigate it himself, and report it if he can't find it out. There is still a long way from Laihu to Qiongzhi. I'm afraid Mr. Don't want to delay, do it yourself."

"Is he that kind?"

"Ting Yu, there is no doubt about the employment. Mr. is not an ordinary person, how could he covet common things?

"Xiangyao sighed, "I know you don't like those immortals and Taoists, but once the facts are settled there, no matter what kind of Taoism he cultivates, you have to admit it, he is different from us.

Looking at the city of Qiongzhi alone, how many people have abandoned their houses as temples, and how many people have achieved true results?

No, they are all without affiliation, and they are tossing around with their own fantasies.Those immortals and demons, fighting between immortals and demons, and immortality, have been passed down hundreds of years ago.

But in this world, generations do not change, the old die and die, and they are buried in the soil when they die.

Even the unofficial history said that "Danggui, the supreme immortal, has survived through the ages", but who in the world has found Danggui Mountain or Danggui's descendants?Why do you bother with something that is so vain to us. "

"I understand this, but..."Although the idea of ​​immortals is prevalent, few people have ever seen immortals.

Moreover, these illusory things are very likely to be the inner sustenance fabricated by the ancients.

Chasing immortality, at this level, is understandable, but Zhou Tingyu just can't understand it and can't let go of it. Whether he is paranoid or pedantic, he hates it.

Xiangyao patted the back of Zhou Tingyu's hand lightly, and said earnestly: "It's good that you understand, it's just a matter of time. Tingyu, uncle is already like that, and we who are sober still have to live on, waiting for Lu Come back safely today, I hope you can really be happy."

Zhou Tingyu nodded emphatically, but he didn't know whether he could do it or not.

Xiangyao stood up, as if he was about to leave, "If you still want to sleep, then go to sleep. By the way, I didn't finish talking just now. The husband told me to go to Laihu alone with him. Tomorrow, you can go with the husband." .”

"Huh?" Zhou Tingyu was taken aback, "Me and him?!"

"Yes, the two of you." Xiangyao looked at him with a face of refusal, and his tone became a bit more determined, without giving Zhou Tingyu a chance to shirk, "The main purpose of this trip is to find Lu Jin, sir, I don't know what Lu Jin looks like, he is alone There is no way to start. And I want to stay in Qiongzhi, when Luhou has military affairs, you are the only candidate."

Thinking about it, Zhou Tingyu felt his scalp go numb, and he begged repeatedly: "I'm with him? Good sister, you know that it's very awkward between me and him! Don't be afraid that I can't help but bump into him again, and he killed me. ? The kind with no bones left in the wilderness?!"

Xiangyao skipped these exaggerated rhetoric, turned around and left him a back that was fading away, and said: "This matter is settled like this, Shi Luhou and I will see you off at the gate of the city tomorrow, remember to be on time arrive."

The next day, as soon as Dongfang showed his belly white, Zhou Tingyu packed his bags.In addition to the clothes and entanglements that Lian Er packed up, he also found a package outside the door, which was filled with all kinds of spells.

No need to think about it, Zhou Chengxu, his father, prepared it for him.Zhou Tingyu's astonishment was true, but his nose was more sour.

It is said that when a son travels thousands of miles, his mother is worried. He has no mother, and his father usually ignores him.

So I left as soon as I left, without the urging and eager anticipation of my parents, but the moment I saw the spell, Zhou Tingyu felt that the defense line he had built for many years to separate his father began to collapse—he always had his own in his heart. Well, it's just hard to say.

Not much luggage, travel light.

When Zhou Tingyu arrived at the gate of the city, no one had come yet.

Leaning his back against the city wall, rubbing his feet on the gravel road, waiting in the crowd of people coming and going, Zhou Tingyu remembered why he called him again.

He is leaving Qiongzhi, and the return date is undecided.

Why call it?Are you still in Joan?If he had any contact with Lian'er, he should know that he was gone.

We meet by chance, but the cover remains the same.The sun in March in Yangchun is too warm, how can a person who is just used to the cold winter wind resist it?

"Ting Yu! Here!"

Hearing Lu Yang's shout, Zhou Tingyu stopped thinking and ran to them in two or three steps.

Xiangyao covered her smile and said, "That's right, it's actually a few minutes earlier than us today."

Zhou Tingyu said: "I slept enough yesterday, if I want to stay in bed this morning, I am too naive."

"Well, let's start with your husband. I'm afraid there will be a long delay, and I won't be able to reach the post house before dark." Xiangyao said while looking back, Zhou Tingyu also moved his eyes——

I saw a man in red, covering his face with a fence, leading two brown and black horses, quietly waiting behind him.

The red clothes were flying like blood, and Zhou Tingyu was stunned for a moment. Without this iconic fence, he would not have dared to admit that the person in front of him was the cold and depressed man in black clothes a few days ago.

The masked man stepped forward, handed the reins of a horse to Zhou Tingyu, and said to Lu Yang and Xiangyao, "I will help you." Seeing that they hesitated and did not leave, they added, "Don't worry, the case will be resolved soon." As a result, people will be safe.”

Get on the horseback and fly away.

The early morning wind blows the branches to spit out fresh green, blows the clouds to drift continuously, and blows on the body cool, like reminding people passing through the unknown journey and refreshing their spirits.

Two horses, one in front and one behind, the rider was silent all the way.

When He Huan and Zhou Tingyu arrived at the post house, it was not yet dusk and the sky was still bright, so they calculated the distance.

If you continue on your way, you can also enter a nearby town and eat the last bowl of hot Yangchun noodles before closing.

But Zhou Tingyu insisted on stopping and resting, not because he was tired, but because the atmosphere between him and He Huan was too delicate and embarrassing——

Before, I felt that the other party's words were frivolous, but now he keeps silent, as if... it is not so annoying.

Zhou Tingyu didn't know if it was because he had scolded the masked man, but now he turned his head and saw his conspicuous red clothes, and he was inexplicably nervous.

Therefore, we must stop and let Zhou Tingyu adjust his mentality, otherwise he will explode on the spot.

The two led the horse into the stable, and just after it was tied up, Zhou Tingyu turned around and was about to leave.

"Don't you want to eat something?" He Zhihua's deep voice came to Zhou Tingyu who had just walked a few steps.

Zhou Tingyu didn't look back.

Why call and said: "Aren't you hungry?"

Zhou Tingyu really didn't want to talk to the masked man, but he only said these two sentences in a day, and every sentence poked his heart.

If you are really hungry, don't worry about him, just bend your waist for five buckets of rice. Only when you are full will you have the strength to go on the road, find Lu Jin, and part ways with him.

So he turned around and said, "Do you have something to eat?"

As soon as the words fell, several pieces of chestnut flour cakes wrapped in square cloth appeared in front of Zhou Tingyu.

Zhou Tingyu, who was hungry, couldn't help but see the chestnut flour cake.

What principle, what embarrassment, fuck him, it doesn't matter!Picking up a piece, he stuffed it into his mouth, devoured it hungrily, and smacked his mouth, wondering: "Hey, where did you buy this chestnut flour cake? Why does it taste the same as the one newly researched by my maid?"

He Zhihua immediately subconsciously withdrew the hand that was holding the chestnut flour cake, as if a little guilty, and said: "I bought it at a random store, maybe it just happened to taste the same."

"Which store? I'll buy it next time, so that I won't have to work hard for Lian'er." Zhou Tingyu actually wanted to eat another piece, but seeing the masked man withdrew his hand, he could only stare greedily.

He Zhixuan was at a loss for words immediately, and stammered: "Chengnan..."

In fact, he made the chestnut flour cake by himself all night, and Lian'er's improved version of chestnut flour cake was also given to him when he lived in Guojiu's mansion.

It's just that He Huan didn't want Zhou Tingyu to know, so he cast a spell to erase Lian'er's memory, and lied that he bought the chestnut powder cake.

After all, the masked person is from Zhou Tingyu, but it is only a cooperative relationship, why is it called Zhou Tingyu, it is just a relationship between two sides, too attentive, I am afraid it will backfire.

Zhou Tingyu didn't know why, maybe it was a cannibalism, so he started to chat with him, and said with a smile: "The south of the city is so big, please be more specific!"

He Xihuan stuffed the remaining chestnut flour cake into Zhou Tingyu's hands, as if he couldn't tell a lie, he was a little embarrassed, turned around and walked to the posthouse, "I don't remember clearly."

But the face under the fence is clearly more secret joy than embarrassment, so I know why. If Zhou Tingyu wants to open his heart, eating is a key point.It turns out that when a person is reincarnated, some attributes do not change.
