"Hehe, I can't hide anything from Brother Xiao." Li Qiu said with a smile, "Ximen Sheng and Chu Kuotian took the initiative to invite me to go. I thought I might as well give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter."
"Well...it doesn't matter." Xiao Chen said, "But what you said really reminded me that we have to be careful about assassins."
"Haha, it's not easy to kill me. It's even harder to assassinate you, Brother Xiao." Li Qiu said with a smile, "We two brothers will join forces. Not to mention invincible, we don't have many opponents. Besides, we are invincible. There are also Qu Baimei, Gong Tianmu, Shangguan Fatty..."
"Why did the fat man follow you?" Xiao Chen said, "He doesn't know how to fight."
"Don't mention it. Although Fatty Shangguan doesn't know how to fight, his medical skills are superb. Having him with you makes me feel at ease." Li Qiu said hurriedly.
"He is now the director of the sugar factory. Don't forget. If he leaves, what will happen to the sugar factory?" Xiao Chen said.
"It's okay if he doesn't go, but what about those seniors?" Li Qiu is talking about Zhao Gongming, Li Xuanming, and Mo Hehe. It's okay if Fatty doesn't go, but with Medicine King Mo Hehe, that's also the same.
"They left beforehand." Xiao Chen said, "As a young leader of the Demon Cult, you are not so timid, right? You just said that you are invincible and fearless, why did you give in so quickly?"
"Alas..." Li Qiu sighed, "That's a joke. When I first came out of Qingmu Cliff, I was very courageous, but since I encountered that incident in Myanmar, I have become less courageous. It turns out that the world's masters There are so many!"
"That's because you should be lucky." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "Actually, there are not that many masters in the world. It's just that you met them all by chance." Xiao Chen also met a lot of them. Fortunately, most of them were friends, but there were also enemies. , such as Xiao Xinghan, such as Tantai Yufei...
Xiao Chen always had an uncertain premonition. Maybe when he went to Langya, he might see these two people again, or one of them.
The two discussed for a long time and had a meal together. Xiao Chen returned home in the afternoon.
Before I even entered the door, I heard laughter and laughter in the room, including Gong Shouli's voice. What was this old boy doing here!
"Brother, you're back, hurry up and take off your clothes!" When Ling'er saw him, she rushed over and took off his coat, "Try to see if this clothes fits you?"
"Huh, whatever he wears is a waste of fabric and money is wasted." Gong Shouli said at the side.
"Is this from Taihexiang? How much money does it cost?" Xiao Chen felt awkward all over after putting on new clothes. "I'm going out to fight, not traveling, so what new clothes should I wear?"
"I won't let you wear it if you want to. This one costs eighty taels of silver. I bought it for you to wear during the New Year." Ouyang Yunxiu helped Xiao Chen pull the collar like a little daughter-in-law, looking up and down, and saw It fits quite well, and I'm very happy about it. The main reason is that my husband is good-looking. He looks handsome in anything he wears.
"Eighty taels of silver?" Xiao Chen took off his clothes as soon as he heard this, "I can't afford to wear this."
"You are considered a monkey now. Buying a new set of clothes is not a luxury." The fat man also changed into a new set of clothes, which were also from Taihexiang and cost eighty taels. He was spinning around in circles.
Although Qianye Ling didn't give him pocket money, she was never stingy when buying things for him. As the saying goes, a man depends on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. Even if I change my clothes, I, a fat man, look much more handsome!
Of course he was quite handsome before, but he is even more handsome now.
"Why did you come to me?" Xiao Chen had time to talk to Gong Shouli.
"Who's looking for you?" Gong Shouli said, "I'm here to see Shangguan. Please go and see my son and your brother before he leaves."
"Tch, you knew for sure that he was a son?" Xiao Chen didn't like to hear him show off this. We were all eunuchs originally. Why the hell did he have the surgery later than me, but he had a son before me? Is it fair to say that he had a son before me?
"That's necessary!" Gong Shouli grinned, "Shangguan said yes, so it must be. By the way, I came to see you for something. It's freezing out here, so don't let my sister suffer the same fate as you." !”
"That's my sister!" Xiao Chen didn't like what he said. We used to be sworn enemies, but now my sister has become your sister, and my brother has become your friend. You kid is trying to infiltrate me!
"Your sister, why don't you treat her better?" Gong Shouli said, "Besides, this is a war. It's useless for her to go with a little girl. Just take your stupid brother with you."
Um? Xiao Ye on the side suddenly became alert, who could he call stupid?
"Then I'll listen to you." Xiao Chen said, "Ling'er won't go this time, and Fatty won't go either. I'll help you give birth to a son. Are you satisfied?"
"Oh my, where does the sun come out today?" Gong Shouli was greatly surprised, "How dare you listen to me?"
The reason why Xiao Chen didn't let the fat man go is as everyone knows, because Yunxiu was going, so if the fat man followed, he would be in the way and annoying!
In addition, the sugar factory is indeed inseparable from Fatty. Besides, if Fatty goes, Qianye Ling will definitely follow him. It is freezing cold here, so it is not good for Qianye to follow him.
As for Ling'er, Xiao Chen wanted her to go to the palace every now and then to accompany Dan Qiu. In fact, it was to protect Dan Qiu.
Because Duan Fengnian rebelled this time, Murong Heng's attitude was very crucial. If Duan Fengnian was not protected, there would be expert guidance and experts around him. What if someone was sent into the palace to assassinate or kidnap Danqiu?
Although the possibility is very small, we must be prepared.
The palace's defense is not tight. The assassins of Tianxuanhui almost injured Danqiu last time! Although there is Murong Xiaoxing'er, she is too young after all, so Xiao Chen is not too worried.
But with Ling'er here, he felt relieved. The little girl had grown up now and could be entrusted with everything.
Ling'er didn't resist, because she felt that there was no danger for her brother to go to Langya this time. Even if it was a war, he wouldn't charge into battle like before...
Besides, there are still the young leader of the Demon Sect and several elders of the Demon Sect, and there are also Xiao Ye and Sister Yunxiu, so nothing will happen to them anyway.
The fat man was a little unhappy. If anything was very dangerous, you would drag me along. But this time it was clear that it was an easy job that I could take advantage of and take credit for, but you didn't let me go?
This means Chiba is here, otherwise I would have to go too!
I want to make some military exploits or something, and ask Li Wanjiang to make me a minister or something like that when I come back...
"You're right, of course I will listen. If it's fart, of course I won't listen." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "What else do you want to fart?"
"Uh..." Gong Shouli's expression suddenly became serious and he hesitated to speak.
"Eunuch Gong just said that he also wants to go to war with you, brother." Ling'er said with a small mouth.
"Damn it, old Gong, since when did you stop being afraid of death?" Xiao Chen was greatly surprised.
"Can you please stop saying such unlucky words!" Gong Shouli said, "Even if I go, I must return in triumph."
"Impossible." Xiao Chen said, "Even if your kid doesn't die in the hands of the enemy, he will die in my hands."
