Outside the east gate of Yumen County City, in a quiet small building next to the pier.
Several people dressed as businessmen gathered in the lobby on the first floor, listening to a ditty and chatting about what they had seen at the Golden Guards Martial Arts School in the county city the day before.
"This gathering called the 'Expo' held by the Golden Guards Martial Arts Hall is really interesting. It actually brought out so many rare treasures that are not found in the Western Regions."
"Yes, there are several gems and ores that are obviously produced in the North Land and the East China Sea. There is also the Yin Spirit Wood, which is also quite rare and is a good material for making charms and magic weapons."
"Not only the materials, but also many calligraphy and painting works, some of which are of extremely high level, but their authors are completely unknown..."
"I heard that although Mr. Zhao Chen, the owner of the Golden Guards Martial Arts School, is young, he is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Maybe he did it himself, but he didn't sign it?"
"Hey, Mr. Zhao is not only handsome, but he is also extremely talented in cultivation and martial arts. He is even known for playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is both enviable and admirable."
"I was lucky enough to hear Mr. Zhao Chen playing the qin yesterday. It really took me three days to play the qin. It will be difficult for me to listen to any other qin music from now on!"
"I also heard the fairy voice... No wonder many chivalrous ladies in this county are attracted to him, and even the daughters of aristocratic families from other states are very fond of him."
"Speaking of this, there is another interesting anecdote... Do you know the heroine Gong Yun, the 'Broken Eye' in 'The Seven Heroes of Monan'?"
"Don't be too pretentious. The name of the 'Seven Heroes of Monan' is so popular. Is there anyone who hasn't heard of it?"
"It is said that Ma Guangliang, the second hero in the 'Seven Heroes of Monan', entered the devil's path and used despicable means to frame several sworn brothers one after another. Even his eldest brother Ma Guangming was brutally murdered by him!
"Nvxia Gong was also almost killed by Ma Guangliang. She escaped into the mansion of Mr. Zhao Chen and was protected by him.
"So Gong Nuxia has been recuperating in Mr. Chen's mansion these days. When Mr. Zhao Chen was playing the piano yesterday, she happened to be waiting by his side and was bumped into by several knights who were going to participate in the 'exposition'..."
"I had heard before that Gong Nuxia and Zhao Chen were close, and I thought it was just a rumor... I didn't expect it to be true."
"But Ma Guangliang is at the top of the 'Jade Gate Talent List', and even Gong Nuxia can't deal with it. How can Mr. Zhao Chen protect him?"
"You don't know this. It is said that Mr. Zhao Chen is protected by a master of 'supernatural power'. There is no way Ma Laoer can deal with him."
They were talking lively, but they were completely unaware that in the single room upstairs, there was a man with a decadent temperament. After hearing their conversation, he depressedly picked up a glass of worry-free wine and drank it.
This worry-free wine, formerly known as "Bingquan Wine", is also a product of the "Golden Dart Martial Arts School" and has been very popular in the Yumen area.
Sitting opposite the decadent man was a young man in a green robe, with white powder on his face and dark circles under his eyes. Seeing that his friend was heartbroken, he sighed slightly and selected a young man who was good at playing and singing, with a deep and clear voice. The courtesan.
"Still the old rules." The young man in green robe nodded slightly to the singing girl, then poured himself a glass of wine and started drinking it himself.
The geisha also recognizes the young master in front of her, and has long been accustomed to it. She sits casually, plays the pipa, and sings soft and melodious songs.
Accompanied by the beautiful voice, the young master in green robe drank with the decadent young master for a quarter of an hour. When he was slightly drunk, he slowly stood up with the wine bottle, walked to the window, and pointed at the endless stream across the Jian River. The desert said:
"Fourth brother, I know that you blame yourself for causing damage to me and third brother, and you are also sad that you failed to protect fifth sister and made her have to rely on Zhao Chen.
"Even the 'death' of Seventh Sister is your responsibility..."
“But this should be your motivation for revenge in the future, rather than becoming a shackles that imprison your spirit like it is now.
"After this drink and this drunken scene, you should cheer up, practice hard, and seek revenge on Ma Guangliang!"
This green-robed young man is naturally Li Changsheng, the sixth child in the "Seven Heroes of Monan", and sitting opposite him is Lu Zhen, the fourth child who was released by Ma Guangliang as promised.
It's just that at this time, Lu Sixia no longer had the high spirits of the past, and the whole person only felt "sad".
This is not surprising. He was trapped and tortured repeatedly by Ma Laoer in various illusions. All his "angry" feelings had been drained away, and naturally he had no energy for anything.
Even when he heard that his beloved fifth sister was serving Zhao Chen in the martial arts gym, he just drank and said nothing.
In addition to experiencing something more intolerable than this in the fantasy world, this was also related to the fact that his mind was filled with disgust for himself.
——This sudden lack of emotion is most likely to cause psychological problems.
As the former "Dong Xuan" real person, Li Changsheng has a strong mind and can naturally adjust himself; Yan San has experienced too many storms and waves, and even if he feels unwell for a while, he will recover sooner or later, so there is nothing wrong with the two of them.
Only Lu Sixia, who had been going smoothly, fell into the whirlpool of self-abandonment and was unable to extricate himself.
Under such circumstances, although Li Changsheng's words made sense, Lu Sixia still didn't listen. He just drank a sip of wine and muttered: "Once, yes, I once fantasized about advancing." He has magical powers and becomes a hero to marry his fifth sister...
"But I was powerless when the fifth sister fell into Ma Guangliang's hands and was about to be humiliated. I could only watch helplessly!
"I once thought that I would never betray our friendship, but I was controlled by someone in Qingyun Tower, and I pointed swords at Fifth Sister! And Seventh Sister also 'disappeared' in front of my eyes afterwards... I still I can only watch helplessly!
"This time the seventh sister was seriously injured by Ma Guangliang's attack. I didn't know anything about it in advance, and she fell into the hands of the other party... In the end, I was able to survive through the sacrifice of my sixth brother and my third brother.
"I'm a waste!
"Fifth sister is right to seek protection from Zhao Chen... He can protect fifth sister, but I am just a waste! Waste!"
He was chattering a little, talking about what he thought of. The geisha playing the pipa on the side saw the young man in green robe giving him a wink, and immediately understood, and the music gradually became more exciting.
At the same time, Li Changsheng also took the wine glass from Lu Zhen's hand and said seriously:
"Trash? You, Lu Zhen, are one of the 'Seven Heroes of Monan'!
“You call yourself a waste, but where do you put us brothers and sisters?
"I won't say much to you, I'm just asking you, now there is an opportunity for you to repay the kindness of my third brother and me, will you do it or not?"
Lu Zhen looked at his sixth brother dimly, and after a while he nodded and said: "As long as the sixth brother and the third brother tell me, I will go through fire and water... no matter what!"
"Very good... This is actually the mission assigned to you by the fifth sister." Li Changsheng handed a note to Lu Zhendao, "The content of the mission is here."
Lu Zhen pursed his lips, his face was complicated and unspeakable, but in the end he took it and saw that it read:
"Investigate the whereabouts of each of the three 'Cloud Crowns'."
