After all, Yun Zhong only sat at Lu's house for a mere hour, but in this short period of time, Lu Chui drank up all his alcohol, which was not that huge, and finally lay down on that seat. He fell into a deep sleep in the stone pavilion and could no longer think of looking at the documents sent from several cities and places around him. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't read this document. At this critical juncture in the city, there is no need to worry too much about whether the monsters outside Beiyanze will come over again like mountains and seas, and there is no need to worry about the monsters that have always been reluctant to speak. Qingpingjun, who asked for help, opened his mouth to ask for food, grass and manpower from these cities.
Because even if the monster tide comes again and launches a mere sporadic offensive, even the cities headed by Beicheng will be unable to resist even a little bit. Since hundreds of monsters are unstoppable, tens of thousands of monsters, even if they know that there is such a thing A calamity is almost the same for Zhibeicheng.
At present, whether it is the Zhibei City, which has been managed by the Lu family for many years, or the other cities that are jointly governed by several high sects, knowing that they have no ability to deal with the return of the demon tide, they have calmed down and no longer care about this. If the situation is not determined by fate, all we need to do is to do our best to ensure Tianming's destiny. After all, no one in the world can predict whether Bei Yanze will change again, let alone when the demon tide will return again. However, it happened to be that there were several northern Yanzeguannan cities that were unable to succeed, so there was no need to worry about it. People who are fleeing have a hard time even surviving, and they can wear soft armor all day long to guard against horse thieves swarming along the road. To say that it is a top priority is just one word.
money.
In the past three months since Lu Chui took over as the head of the Lu family, he has been holding himself together with just one breath. Perhaps this is because the old head of the family has not paid too much attention to those young people who have made a name for themselves outside the Lu family. Because of this, although Lu Chui is idle all day long, his skills are not necessarily as good as those of other descendants, but he is only better at the four characters of mental toughness. To Beicheng, he has been in the world for many years, and it is not because he has done everything. It is airtight, and there is no one who strives for everything and truly achieves the most perfection. It is the head of the Lu family who is at the top of the Lu family. Can he withstand the wind and rain? Although he is like a bereaved dog, he is There were many things that were too overwhelming to deal with, and he was bruised all over his body, but he was always able to straighten his neck and fight to the death, so that the Lu family could be where it is today.
A wall grass will fall wherever the wind blows. Of course, it is often laughed at, scolded and despised by others. It has always been an old saying that people are ignored. But who can say that a wall is so barren that only scattered soil is left? Is it really easy to grow a grass?
There is no doubt that Lu Chui is that wall grass, and when the wind and rain around Beicheng will wrap around this young man's shoulders.
This was the first time that Yun Zhong was silent and drank with Lu Chui. He was not overly concerned about the current situation in Zhibei City, and he did not mention the so-called romantic affairs, nor did he use those kind of rhetoric to exchange greetings or greetings. It was hot, or he told Lu Chui to put on more clothes, and he trampled over and over the documents and letters quite casually. Occasionally, some wine spilled on the documents, but he pretended that he had never seen them, and almost trampled on many of the rice papers. They turned into mud and just drank together with the young head of the Lu family, whose hair was mostly gray at a young age.
Among the few remaining servants of the Lu family, no one has ever seen Lu Chui drink so much. Many people complained and blamed Yunzhong, which made it clear that this person in their family had a hard life, so The new head of the house who took over the position of head of the house in a time of crisis is struggling with business, so why is he still thinking about drinking wine? At this difficult time, he still wants to come and drink more. No matter how you think about it, it is unreasonable, but it is rare. People came to stop him, but watched from a distance as Lu Chui's complexion turned from white to red, and finally he hit his head on the stone table and fell unconscious.
Bu Yingqing was always not far away from the stone pavilion, watching the two men in the stone pavilion shouting and punching each other while drinking. Although he still had not figured out why these two men did such ridiculous things, from the beginning to the end, his eyes were Most of them focused on Yun Zhong's very cynical face, but it was clear that Yun Zhong should not be so virtuous, but he could not tell why.
There was heavy snow in Shuofang, and its momentum was unimpeded, so after the drinks were finished, the deer lowered his head and knocked it on the stone table. There was no movement anymore, except for the babble in his mouth. The swordsman also had his head covered with snowflakes, and he didn't feel satisfied yet. He slapped the deer on the back of the head twice, shaking off a lot of snowflakes. Then he tightened his neck, walked out of the stone pavilion leisurely, sat down next to the bad horse, and raised his head.
With my head turned to the sky and the heavy snow falling outside, I sneezed in a very unflattering manner, sniffed, and muttered that it was really damn cold.
"You two just drank for a long time?" Bu Yingqing frowned, but the words came out still very calmly, and even when he turned his head, the snow did not fall on his shoulders.
"What else?" Yun Zhong hiccupped and leaned crookedly on the side of the inferior horse, "Otherwise I will preach again and put more burden on this man's shoulders, saying that since it is the old patriarch who has passed down this great position, he should The whole day is full of hardships and panic. It is best to work hard and burn all the flesh and blood in your body like a candle. Only then can you say that you have not fallen from the position of the head of the Lu family. The best thing is to die in office. In the future, most people will have to Out of consideration for his merits, you should erect two monuments for him. It would be better to place the tablet in the Lu family ancestral hall, where he can enjoy endless incense all year round with the old family leader who died generously?"
Yun Zhong has always been very rude when speaking, let alone Bu Yingqing, who is always pestering him for some reason. Of course, he has no restraint and speaks such words with a half-smile, without feeling the slightest bit. inappropriate.
Bu Yingqing did not pursue Yun Zhong's nonsense, but continued to look towards the stone pavilion, speaking through the snow curtain, "But that man is obviously sleepy. Drinking like this can't solve any urgent problems. Anyway, It’s not treating the root cause.”
"For me, I naturally hope that he can do a lot of things in this important position, and that he can gain peace of mind and live in peace and stability. But at this moment, it is urgent that he is not the only one who is in danger. He has almost only one hand. The new head of the Lu family who has left less than half of the Lu family can turn the tide. Therefore, before being the head of the Lu family, he must first let him live in peace to avoid any problems in the future. Between friends, most of what can be done It is my duty to pull him out of this sleepy and troubled state for a while." Exhaling two puffs of white air, Yun Zhong slowly spoke, but it didn't sound like what Yingqing said at the same time, more like he was saying it. Talk to yourself.
Nangong Mountain's method of unlocking people has always been like this. In the past, Yun Zhong often didn't understand why his master or several senior brothers often had to open the sword when they were extremely tired and made no progress. Wu Shuang ordered him to catch two fat rabbits and bring them to drink. Wu Shuang often had to seize on trivial matters that were not worth mentioning in front of everyone, and made himself go to the mountain gate to clean up fallen leaves. Qian Yin often had to take out some money. Some rather strange-looking elixirs or dishes were handed to Yun Zhong, who had a numb scalp, and he said that it was best to eat them all to show respect to the second senior brother.
If a person is firmly locked in one thing or a few things, it is unlikely that the person will be able to hold on based on his mental strength. On the contrary, it will be the most disadvantageous. When he is in the situation, he will often be confused and frustrated, and if it is temporary It is easier to feel refreshed when you step away. This principle seems very simple, but throughout the ages, many people have been trapped in the situation.
Lu Chui is obviously trapped in the situation and can't extricate himself. Yun Zhong's coming to have such a drink may not be able to solve the Lu family's current situation of dwindling money, but it will definitely be able to temporarily put his mind and spirit into order. Taking a break from a boring thing for a while, although it may not be smart, but it is really the duty of a friend.
"When he was still drunk, he once told me that the entire Lu family seems to be in ruins now, and everything is booming. Moreover, with such a war, the reputation of the people in Beiyanze has been greatly improved. It has reached its peak, but many people know that in this scene where the city seems to be restored, there is an undercurrent of unrest, and secondly, the Lu family has gone from prosperity to decline after such a war. In the end, it comes down to the word money. But even if the Lu family is far less impressive than it appears on the surface, the crisis inside is quite easy to resolve. As long as there is money, the decline can be stopped, but this There is a huge money shortage, and we have been looking for ways to make up for it.”.z.
"Bei Yanze Border Pass was an accident, and reaching Beicheng was not an accident. If the demon tide that swept half of the world last time came several times in succession, even the prosperous scene in this world today would be nothing more than an accident. , struggling to survive in the tightrope, there is no room for carelessness.”
There is no snow today, thousands of trees are in bloom, and silver flowers are blooming everywhere.
The young head of the Lu family in Shiting probably always wanted to walk on thin ice, but Yun Zhong didn't know if he had ever thought about whether he could reach the end of the thin ice.
There are many people in Beiyanze who want to leave but can't, and there are many old soldiers who are struggling to survive. Probably few of them can believe that they can get out of this place alive.
We are on the border of Yanze in the north, so many things are just empty talk. Anyone who has not experienced the suffering of others and has not fallen into the quagmire of others cannot calculate how deep the suffering is.
When the two cavalry left the city again, there was an extra letter pressed under Lu Chui's head. There was a faint sword mark on it, but a discerning person who recognized Yun Zhong would most likely recognize it at a glance. This sword mark was written by Yun Zhong. Although there is no signature, there are three characters Wei Xiwu written on it.
When the two cavalry came out to the north city, there were many soldiers or armored servants of the Lu family at the top of the city. Some of them were recognized by Yun Zhong, and some were not recognized by Yun Zhong. Many were private soldiers, and many were survivors of the previous demon wave. The soldiers and servants in the city who came down all held their swords in their hands, and they clashed their swords at the city head. They were silent and sent the swordsman out of the city. The clang of gold and iron and the sound of swords clashing were deafening in the silence of everyone. They were so neat and tidy. Tight, covering up the sound of the strong wind in Shuofang.
