Chapter 693: Love but no fate
It is said that Chen Long kicked the three evil tigers of the Han family into dust with a self-created invincible whirlwind kick. Han Ying, the only one who didn't take action, had a distorted face, and she quickly helped the brothers up one by one with the Tianshui gang. The worst thing was that Han Qi fell headfirst into a deep well outside the courtyard and almost died. Fortunately, he had a good foundation in martial arts and was able to hold his breath and be fished out. When he got ashore, he stumbled and couldn't stand. It turned out that Chen Long's whirlwind leg had cracked his leg bone.
At this point, only Han Ying, the only one of the five tigers of the Han family who could stand on his own, left in embarrassment with Han De and his brothers. When Chen Long saw Diao Chan standing next to Chen Yi, her eyes full of worry, he couldn't help but walked closer and shook his head slightly, saying that there was no need to worry. Suddenly she felt someone staring at her with blazing eyes. When she turned around to look, she met Ma Yunluan's eyes. A strange smile appeared on her handsome face, as if she had seen through something, and then she avoided Chen Long's gaze, which made her People will clean the scene and replace the dishes so that everyone can return home happily.
In fact, many people will worry about Han Ying returning with his troops. After all, 80,000 Qiang soldiers are no joke. But Zhang Ji didn't nod. I'm afraid the Qiang soldiers wouldn't be able to enter Tianshui so easily, so everyone wouldn't panic. Fighting after drinking too much at banquets is also the most common thing in Da Xiliang, and the winner is respected by everyone.
Therefore, although everyone, including Ma Yunluo, was also worried about Han De's subsequent revenge, seeing that Chen Long himself was doing business as usual, the atmosphere relaxed again. The Wang family didn't seem to take it seriously, but Sima Fang instructed Sima Lang to come specially to toast and make friends, which seemed to reflect the different talent strategies and expansion ambitions behind the major families.
Sima Lang was still gentle and polite, and his etiquette was naturally very thoughtful. Chen Long drank a few drinks with him, and Diao Chan beside him only lowered his head and remained silent. Sima Lang was obviously also fascinated by Diao Chan's beauty, and then went to Diao Chan's place to toast and make friends, but Diao Chan politely declined because she could no longer drink. When Sima Lang was embarrassed, Ma Yunluan and Guo Huai came over hand in hand, and rescued Diao Chan.
When Diao Chan saw Ma Yunluo approaching with a toast, she quickly stood up. Chen Long also raised his cup and stood up. Several people who were unrelated to each other stood together with their cups, and immediately formed a small circle. Chen Long There was a strange feeling in his heart. After all, Sima Lang and Guo Huai were famous figures from the Three Kingdoms, but now they were on equal terms with people from a different world like themselves, which made people sigh.
Diao Chan stood next to Ma Yunluo, still bowing her head silently. Ma Yunluo smiled and said: "Sister Shuang was frightened by what happened just now? It's all my fault. I forgot that my sister's beauty is so beautiful that it can easily attract men. Fight.”
After saying that, he glanced at Chen Long and continued to smile: "Brother Huaiyang, I really did not misjudge you. Sister Shuang is really safe sitting next to you."
Chen Long knew what Ma Yunluo had guessed, so he pretended not to understand and smiled: "Sister Shuang seems to be unwilling to pay attention to those men. Of course I have to help Sister Shuang drive away those men. I hate men bullying women the most, and it has nothing to do with Sister Shuang's beauty. . However, it seems that there are many suitors around the caravan leader!"
Ma Yunluo didn't expect to be ridiculed by Chen Long in turn. He couldn't help but blush. He glared at Chen Long and said, "Young masters all know very well that as the leader of the Tianshui Gang, I am competing in martial arts to recruit heroes to help me. Take good care of the Tianshui Gang. Brother Huai, you have also obtained the qualifications. If you win in the end, don’t forget to join the Tianshui Gang and become my assistant. You will no longer be lazy when the time comes, so don’t regret it!”
Everyone burst into laughter after saying this, and Sima Lang said with a smile: "The leader of the Ma Gang is really quick-tongued and can also joke! Let me ask you, getting beauty and country at the same time, such a cheap thing, which man in the world would regret it?"
Chen Long laughed a few times, and then an extremely bad premonition arose in his heart. Ma Yunluo was using this method to remind himself that if he won the competition to find a bride, he would stay and manage the Tianshui Gang, and Ma Yunluo knew that Huaiyang was Chen Long, the leader of Qinglong, will never stay to take care of the Tianshui Gang. How should this scene continue?
And I have been thinking about taking Ma Yunluo away, assuming that Ma Yunluo can immediately drop everything and follow me. Is it too selfish and not considering Ma Yunluo's feelings?
After all, Ma Yunluo is the leader of a gang. Thousands of people are counting on her to support their family. It is cruel and unrealistic for her to suddenly let go of everything. Even if Ma Yunluo loves Chen Long, she may not be able to do it. Ma Yunluo was asking Chen Long: "For me, can you sacrifice everything?"
Thinking of this, Chen Long suddenly felt pain in his heart, and his sword eyebrows wrinkled slightly. If he and Ma Yunluo could not stay together forever and suffer the pain of not being in love, he would miss him day and night and be filled with sadness. Diao Chan seemed to feel something and glanced at Chen Long, already understanding the love between Ma Yunluan and Chen Long.
Ma Yunluan clearly felt that Chen Long had calmed down, and her heart trembled. She knew that Chen Long was undergoing spiritual torture like her, and the deviation between love and reality made people sigh with regret. She was struggling in her heart, but she still smiled on the surface and said: "Guo Xiaozi came over to me just now and said that he wanted to see the Seven-Star Sword, but he was afraid that you would refuse, so he came to beg me."
Chen Long also quickly concealed his sadness, took out his sword and said, "Why are you so polite, Bo Ji? Just take it and watch it."
Guo Huai was speechless and thanked him, but Baodao asked: "This is my first time going out with my father, the patriarch. How can Brother Huai know my cousin's name?"
Chen Long was startled for a moment, this was really a flaw. If he hadn't paid attention to Guo Huai, how could he have known about his situation? He quickly made up for it: "I not only know Bo Ji's name, but also know that Bo Ji was born in Taiyuan, Eastern Han Dynasty. From a famous family in the county, his great-grandfather Guo Zunnai was the governor of Yanzhou in the dynasty, and he served as the official Shouguanglu who was ordered to tour the world. His grandfather Guo Quan was a great agricultural minister in the dynasty, and his father Guo Jian is the current prefect of Yanmen County. The glory of the Guo family has long been known to me. He had heard about it, so on the day Master Zheng gave his lecture, he had an impression of Bo Ji and asked someone to inquire about Bo Ji’s situation.”
Guo Huai was relieved for a moment, and then asked again: "May I ask which senior knows so much about our Guo family?"
Chen Long prevaricated: "That person's surname is also Guo, but he is a member of the Guo family in Yingchuan. One day I will have the opportunity to introduce him to Bo Ji." It turned out that Chen Long acted on the opportunity and remembered that Guo Jia's Yingchuan Guo family was also a famous family, so he simply Made up a random plot.
Guo Huai said in relief: "It turns out to be the Guo family in Yingchuan. I heard the elders of the clan say that there is also a Guo family in Yingchuan. They should be different branches. It is unknown whether they were the same family hundreds of years ago. Brother Huai has If you have the opportunity, you must introduce it to me."
Chen Long's interest was piqued by Guo Huai, and he thought why not take the opportunity to recruit him, so he smiled and asked: "I heard that Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, the son of the Guo family in Yingchuan, were officials under Chen Long in Jingzhou and were doing well. Bo Ji is such a hero, has he ever thought of becoming an official in the world?"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
