Chu Xiu let go of his hand and walked leisurely towards the street.
He has determined that this 'cold-faced' boss is really proficient in the art of disguise.
"A woman's pulse..."
"The pulse shouldn't be 'disguised', right?"
Three people traveling together.
Zhu Yourong and the landlady who were walking behind Chu Xiu didn't look very well.
"This bastard must have done it on purpose." The landlady cursed secretly, feeling very depressed.
"Is it unintentional or intentional..." Zhu Yourong was worried about gain and loss for a moment. Her disguise technique was indeed very powerful and subtle, and she thought no one could see through it.
But once she gets started, she may be exposed.
The most direct point is...pulse.
She did not yet have full control of her pulse.
Especially when I was caught off guard just now, I was not prepared at all.
After walking out of Ping'an Square, the three of them walked along a street and headed east.
Along the way, it was wonderful.
One by one, young people were stopped.
Young people are candidates.
There are dandy boys running rampant and unscrupulous.
There are dignitaries who are full of the aura of superiors traveling in high profile, with their chariots blocking the middle of the road.
There are also gorgeous women who forcefully pull and stop the young people from heading east.
There were also some burly men, holding broadswords and grinning ferociously.
All of this seems to be integrated with the bustling streets, and surprisingly complements each other.
Chu Xiu walked on the street with no one to stop him.
He could clearly feel that many people were looking at him.
"What is the test?"
Chu Xiu was silent. He knew that the test for him from Suzaku Academy was still ahead.
"Be careful, I saw the current left prime minister." Zhu Yourong, who was walking behind Chu Xiu, whispered with a serious face.
"Prime Minister Zuo?" Chu Xiu was surprised.
"There are still many powerful people, and they are very different from usual." Zhu Yourong added.
"That's it." Chu Xiu continued to move forward.
…
On an ancient stone bridge.
Zuo Chong was heading to Suzaku Academy when he encountered an obstacle.
Ji Wang Li Yuanhua.
Three hundred black-clad bird guards.
Li Yuanhua was sitting in the middle of the bridge, with his legs crossed and no shoes on the dangling foot.
"My shoes fell under the bridge. You can help me pick them up and put them on. Then I can pass through the bridge and go straight to Suzaku Academy." Li Yuanhua said with a smile.
Zuo Chong looked at Li Yuanhua's still red and swollen cheeks and asked with a smile: "I heard that Your Highness used your face to help Mr. Er break an ice fish. Is it true or false?"
Li Yuanhua's expression suddenly turned ferocious, he glared at Zuo Chong and said ferociously: "You are seeking death!"
"It seems true." Zuo Chong said with a smile, "It's a pity that I couldn't see it with my own eyes."
Li Yuanhua stared at Zuo Chong and suddenly smiled, "You want to anger Gu? Gu can't be fooled. Anyway, if you don't pick up Gu's shoes and put them on, you won't be able to pass this test."
"The Academy will not send you to test your humble position." Zuo Chong said calmly.
"Who said this was a test for you?" Li Yuanhua smiled half-heartedly.
Zuo Chong frowned slightly.
"From the beginning to the end, you are just a small character." Li Yuanhua sneered, "Gu Ruo really wants to kill you, do you think you can survive until now?"
Zuo Chong said indifferently: "What? Your Highness has always been merciful to his humble position? Even at the expense of the life of the Bird Guard?"
Li Yuanhua frowned and said coldly: "You are indeed lucky, but your luck has come to an end."
"If nothing happens to Your Highness, I will leave my humble duty." Zuo Chong turned around and was about to leave.
There is more than one road leading to Zhuque Academy.
"Then you can go." Li Yuanhua said calmly, "But you'd better guess who will cross this bridge later?"
Zuo Chong frowned and turned to look at Li Yuanhua again.
Li Yuanhua smiled and said: "Time is very tight. If he comes later and you haven't left yet, then the two of you will be considered together. The difficulty of passing this level will increase four times."
"By the way, there is one more thing. I think you must be very interested in it."
"Twenty-seven dead men were arranged outside that inn. As soon as the man left, the dead men would attack the owner and proprietress of that inn."
"Guess, when that person left, did he leave alone or with three people?"
The smile on Li Yuanhua's face was full of pride and ridicule.
Zuo Chong's expression darkened.
"If you help Gu pick up his shoes now, he might not have to pick them up later." Li Yuanhua said leisurely.
Zuo Chong clenched his fists.
"Your Highness is used to lying to people, but I can't believe it if you are in a humble position."
"If you don't believe it, just waste it."
Li Yuanhua's face was full of sarcasm and ridicule.
Zuo Chong lowered his eyebrows and his eyes flickered uncertainly.
"Why would Suzaku Academy allow this person to test Mr. Chu?"
"Something's wrong!"
"The gentlemen at the back of the academy hate people like Prince Ji the most."
"Even if Mr. Er really wants to help Wang Quan Yixiao deal with Mr. Chu, he won't use Prince Ji..."
Zuo Chong thought quickly, glanced at the three hundred black-clad bird guards behind Li Yuan's incarnation, and frowned tightly.
If there was only King Ji Li Yuanhua in front of him, he would dare to rush over directly.
"Ahem~." An old cough sounded from behind the three hundred bird guards in black.
Zuo Chong was startled and looked up.
"Give way, give way." A hunchbacked old man on a walking stick, step by step, rushed into the three hundred black-clad bird guards.
Li Yuanhua frowned, did not look back, and said in a low voice: "Make way for the old gentleman."
The three hundred bird guards in black immediately moved to both sides, leaving a path in the middle.
"You're a good young man." The hunchbacked old man walked to the center of the bridge with a cane and looked at Li Yuanhua, showing his big yellow teeth.
Li Yuanhua snorted secretly and ignored him.
He knew that this person was pretending to be an old guy from Suzaku Academy.
"Yeah, you're missing a shoe." The hunchbacked old man looked at Li Yuanhua's raised feet, laughed, and kicked off his shoes, "Young people still have a long way to go, and you can't let your feet freeze. , come on, wear this old one."
Li Yuanhua's face turned a little dark.
He smelled a pungent odor.
"No need." Li Yuanhua said in a dull voice.
"You dare to refuse this gift from the elders?" The hunchbacked old man narrowed his eyes slightly.
Li Yuanhua's eyelids twitched and he said directly: "It doesn't fit."
"You haven't even worn it yet, how do you know if it fits?" The hunchbacked old man looked dissatisfied.
Li Yuanhua said in a low voice: "I don't have the habit of wearing other people's shoes."
The hunchbacked old man directly raised the cane, and the top of the cane appeared in front of Li Huayuan, "Look at the head of this cane, does it look like a frozen fish?"
Li Yuanhua's expression changed.
He immediately endured his nausea and put on the shoes of the hunchbacked old man.
"Fuck him, when I become Emperor of Daqian, I will definitely destroy the Suzaku Academy." Li Yuanhua's face was extremely gloomy, he was so aggrieved!
"Haha~, good boy." The hunchbacked old man laughed, raised his eyes and looked towards Zuo Chong, "You are a bit out of shape as a young man. Didn't you see that I am missing one shoe? Why don't you take off your shoes quickly? , given to the old man."
"Okay." Zuo Chong said quickly, having already seen that the old man was helping him.
Zuo Chong came to the hunchbacked old man, took off one of his shoes, squatted down, and put it on for the hunchbacked old man with his own hands.
"You can correct your mistakes after you know them. That's good." The hunchbacked old man said with a smile, "I'm going to the east. Young man, you can escort me all the way."
"This..." Zuo Chong hesitated for a moment.
The hunchbacked old man said: "What? You don't want to?"
"No." Zuo Chong shook his head and said hesitantly, "Junior has a friend who may come here later."
"Oh? He has extra shoes?" the hunchbacked old man asked.
"This...should not be there." Zuo Chong laughed dryly. Who would bring an extra pair of shoes to take the college entrance examination?
"Then it's your fault." The hunchbacked old man scolded, "This person is your friend, but you still want to steal his shoes?"
"without."
"Since you don't want to rob, then send me to the east." The hunchbacked old man said angrily, "If your friend sees that you are missing a shoe, he will take off his shoe and give it to you to wear. Do you want Does your friend have any shoes?"
"..."
Zuo Chong was speechless for a moment, vaguely feeling that there was something in the old man's words.
"Let's go, you have your own way to walk, and others also have their own roads to walk. If people see that you only have one shoe, if you are given a shoe to wear, they will be missing one. If they don't give you a shoe to wear, they will feel guilty. You might also feel sorry for yourself..."
"Junior understands."
Zuo Chong breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to support the old man.
The two walked off the bridge.
"There is no enmity between Gu and him. Everything is because of you." Li Yuanhua said calmly.
Zuo Chong, who had just stepped off the bridge, stopped.
The hunchbacked old man frowned slightly, "Young man, you talk too much."
Li Yuanhua stared ahead and said ferociously: "The academy may not be able to protect everyone.
He has a master, and his master has a sister... As long as he searches alone, he can always find someone who is related to him!
And Li Xianyuan, there are always times when he makes mistakes. "
Zuo Chong took off the dark spear he had been carrying on his back.
"You're right, everything happened because of me." Zuo Chong said calmly.
Li Yuanhua stood up, turned to Zuo Chong, and sneered: "What? Do you dare to attack Gu?"
Zuo Chong smiled.
"Have you forgotten who knelt under this gun five years ago?" Zuo Chong said sarcastically.
Li Yuanhua's face turned extremely pale.
The defeat five years ago was the greatest shame in his life!
Since then, he has learned how to truly use power to suppress others.
As a member of the Daqian royal family, why do you need to fight against others personally?
"I'm just standing here. I want to see how you dare to attack me?" Li Yuanhua spread his hands with a sneer on his face.
Zuo Chong was silent.
Across the stone bridge, he felt a familiar atmosphere.
"It's so lively."
Chu Xiu's voice sounded from across the bridge.
Li Yuanhua frowned, snorted coldly, turned back, glanced at Chu Xiu, then sat down again, crossed his legs, and said calmly: "If you want to go through here, you have to pick up Gu's shoes from the bottom of the bridge and give them to Gu." Put it on."
Zuo Chong tightened his grip on the dark gun barrel, his eyes as cold as ice.
He would rather be humiliated himself than see Chu Xiu humiliated!
"Young man, don't be so angry." The hunchbacked old man laughed and pressed Zuo Chong's shoulder with one hand.
Zuo Chong frowned and remained silent.
"Is this a test for me?" Chu Xiu was surprised.
Li Yuanhua sneered and said, "Yes, it's just a test for you."
"So simple?" Chu Xiu muttered, then walked directly to the bridge, jumped down, and reached the bottom of the bridge.
Everyone was stunned.
Is this surrender?
"This kid is capable of bending and stretching. He is a talent." The hunchbacked old man whispered.
Zuo Chong's face twitched slightly, talent is indeed an individual's talent, capable of bending and stretching... this is not necessarily the case.
"Later……"
Zuo Chong glanced at the dark bird guards around him and tightened his fingers on the gun barrel.
