The second young master led Shu Guan and others out of Emperor Gengshi's palace. Director Chen, who was standing outside the door, quickly smiled and bent down.
"Second Young Master, you are ready to visit!"
"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Director Chen. You can lock the door."
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it should be, it should be. Second Young Master, walk slowly."
Amidst Director Chen's flattering farewell, several people walked towards the outside of the presidential residence.
It was already around nine o'clock in the evening, and the winter night was extremely cold. Especially the old man Qian Jing'an, who didn't usually exercise much. He had just slept soundly in Emperor Gengshi's palace, and was shivering with cold on the way. After sneezing a few times, the second young master asked the guards to get some cotton-padded clothes immediately, and then asked someone to arrange a car.
"Has it been this long since we've been in there?"
When he arrived at the gate, Professor Lai Sheng raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said with regret and confusion.
The regret is naturally because I came to the erotic palace and found nothing in the end. I couldn't find the possible entrance to the underground palace.
But Professor Lai Sheng remembered very clearly that he and the others entered the palace of Emperor Gengshi at dusk, and they didn't seem to have stayed there for long, so it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
"Haha, Professor Lai, you don't know how seriously you and Mr. Qian looked at the cultural relics just now. You had to stop for a long time in front of each cultural relic. You couldn't hear me when I shouted."
Shu Guan smiled and said something beside him.
At this time, the car arranged by the second young master had already arrived at the door. Qian Jing'an, who could not stand the cold wind, was the first to get into the car. So Professor Lai Sheng did not have time to think much and got into the car. .
At this moment, another car drove over outside and stopped at the door.
The back door of the car opened, and a fat, white, middle-aged man wearing a suit and glasses with a shrewd look on his face got out first.
"uncle."
The second young master immediately shouted to the middle-aged man.
At this time, Shu Guan had not gotten into the car. He originally thought that the eldest son, Mr. President, was back, because the car looked very similar to the car that the eldest son went out in the evening.
After hearing what the second young master called the middle-aged man, Shu Guan immediately knew the identity of the middle-aged man.
So he accidentally looked at the brother-in-law of the very famous President of the Republic of China.
Of course, although the president's brother-in-law is famous, he doesn't have a good reputation.
He is famous throughout Dahua for his long-sleeved dancing and insatiable character.
The brother-in-law of Mr. President is the director of the Finance Department in the government of the Republic of China. He is the immediate boss of Shuguan's uncle Teng Yanping. He also serves as the president of the Intermediate Bank of the Republic of China (not a typo), which is equivalent to a direct He is in charge of the two money bags of the Republic of China, and what this Mr. President’s brother-in-law likes to do most is to put the money in the money bags of the Republic of China into his own personal pocket.
This is almost an open secret in the Republic of China.
It is said that he must withhold a portion of every sum of money that passes through his hands.
One of the most notorious things he did was that when he took office as the governor of the Central Bank of the Republic of China, he issued a large number of new coins in the name of currency reform, and then used these new coins to buy new coins on the market. gold.
The problem is that he did not put the gold in the vaults of the banks in the Republic of China, but transported it to the Western Continent. He said it was used to increase foreign exchange reserves and purchase weapons and ammunition for the Republic of China. However, in fact, in the end, the gold They were all used by him to purchase private properties in the Western Continent.
This also led to the crazy devaluation of the new currency of the Republic of China government as soon as it was issued, and the currency reform also ended in complete failure.
After this incident was revealed, the president of the Central Bank of the Republic of China was criticized verbally and in writing, and he was impeached many times. However, he still sat firmly in the position of president of the Central Bank, because he siphoned off half of the gold. It was given to his sister, the current wife of the president.
As long as Mr. President doesn't move him, no one can.
The president's brother-in-law, Song Ziwen, understands this very well, so he lets others scold him. This does not prevent him from using the power in his hands to make money for himself in the past few years.
"It's the second child. How do you send the guests back?"
After Song Ziwen got out of the car, he smiled and said hello to the second young master. He glanced at Shu Guan who was standing by the car and didn't pay attention. He immediately turned around and respectfully greeted another person from the car. .
When another person got out of the car, Shu Guan's eyes narrowed slightly.
It was an old Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe, with long white hair and a childish face, and an immortal spirit, which made him look extremely extraordinary.
Shu Guan did not feel any obvious fluctuations in spiritual power from this old Taoist priest.
But now when he sees whether a person is a cultivator, he no longer just looks at whether there are any fluctuations in spiritual power, just like when he noticed the abnormality of those cultivators on the Lai Feng Fang.
Although this old Taoist priest has no spiritual energy fluctuations, the words "childlike face and crane hair", when placed on other people or as adjectives, are only describing a fact when placed on this old Taoist priest, because his skin is really like Baby smooth and delicate.
When the old Taoist got out of the car, he also glanced at Shu Guan. Shu Guan looked at him and found that there was a faint red light in the old Taoist's eyes.
The red light was very faint and looming, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to detect it, but it could not hide it from Shu Guan's eyes.
The old Taoist priest glanced at Shu Guan, then looked away, looking at the majestic Spring Palace in front of him, filled with the atmosphere of time, with a look of admiration in his eyes.
Shu glanced at the old Taoist priest without stopping, and without any change of expression on his face, he lowered his head and sat in the car.
But he was 90% sure that the old Taoist priest was a practitioner, but he couldn't determine the specific realm of cultivation.
Of course, it's none of his business.
If Mr. President’s second son can bring him, a cultivator, into the erotic palace, then naturally Mr. President’s brother-in-law can do the same.
If the old Taoist priest was looking for the entrance to the underground palace here like him, he would never be able to find it again, because the door to the entrance to the underground palace had been taken away by the senior brother and the others.
If the old Taoist priest came for other things, it would have nothing to do with Shu Guan.
If the old Taoist priest wants to use his power as a practitioner to interfere in the world of mortals in the presidential palace, the Seven Immortals Alliance of Aurous Hill will naturally take care of him.
A place like the president's official residence is equivalent to the palace of the Great China Dynasty in the past. In fact, it was originally a palace. It is naturally a place that the Shencheng Seven Immortals Alliance focuses on. I came here today just to find the entrance to the underground palace. As for I would never dare to do anything else.
So after Shu Guan got the car, he didn't take the old Taoist priest's matter to heart anymore.
Thinking about it, as long as he wasn't a fool, he wouldn't do anything outrageous in the presidential palace.
The driver arranged by the second young master first took Qian Jing'an and Professor Lai Sheng to the hotel where they were staying, and then sent Shu Guan back to Teng Yanping's mansion.
At this point, Teng Yanping and his wife were already asleep, but when they went upstairs, Shu Guan found that the lights were still on in Teng Huiyi's room, and young people always go to bed later.
Shu Guan returned to the room where he had lived these past few days. He first sat on the bed and was in a daze for a while, thinking about the memories that had been deleted but Xiaoyi had re-transmitted them to him.
It felt like a frog originally sitting at the bottom of a well. After accidentally peeking into the world outside the well, it felt deeply trembling and terrifying.
Then Shu Guan smiled bitterly.
The elder brother is right, it is better for him to stay at the bottom of the well for the time being.
The world outside the well is too dangerous.
Then Shu Guan sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to sort out the cultivation methods left to him by his senior brother.
After seeing the world outside the well, no frog is willing to stay at the bottom of the well forever.
But to go to the outside world, you must first have the strength to jump out!
…
When the sun shone through the window into the room, Shu Guan opened his eyes.
Although he had not slept all night, the moment he opened his eyes, Shu Guan was in full swing, and the light in his eyes seemed brighter than the sunlight outside the window.
Although the number of the fighting tactics training methods taught to him by the eldest brother was not large, each method was extremely powerful. What the eldest brother said at the beginning was right, the reckless energy and mountain-carrying skills were just fighting tactics. It’s just an introductory cultivation method.
It's just that I will be very busy in the future, because in order to master these fighting tactics, I don't know how much time, energy and perseverance it will take, and I don't know how much hardship it will take.
In addition, last night, Shu Guan was more interested in watching the scenes of his senior brother fighting enemies before, comprehending the experience and combat skills in real life-and-death combat that his senior brother taught him, and how to use fighting tactics in the most perfect and efficient manner. method.
After realizing it overnight, Shu Guan knew that he might only have digested some of the experience and skills of his senior brother, but he still felt that his combat ability had been greatly improved.
What he really has is the confidence that when facing Tantai Yu who has broken through the terrestrial fairyland, he can not rely on the giant bow and sharp knife left by the old lame man, nor rely on opportunistic means, but purely rely on what he knows. Taoist skills can kill Tantai Yu in an upright battle.
Of course, Shu Guan's confidence still needs to be verified by a real opponent.
However, Shu Guan didn't rush to find a land god to verify his plan.
Then Shu Guan got up from the bed and walked out of the room.
Looking at the time, it was around nine o'clock in the morning. Teng Yanping had naturally gone to work in the office by this time. His aunt Rong Duanshu was not a housewife. She was responsible for the Rong family's business in Jinling on weekdays. During this time, she was still fighting in Jinling. Xu Rescue Association also serves as the vice president, responsible for raising various supplies to aid the northern front line, so these days he goes out earlier than Teng Yanping.
As for Teng Huiyi, she hasn't gotten up yet at this point.
Shu Guan went downstairs on his own and saw that the weather outside was good, so he asked a servant to make him a cup of coffee and prepared to go to the grass outside the main building of the villa to bask in the sun and drink coffee. After Teng Huiyi got up, he Ask about where to visit today.
Shu Guan planned to stay in Jinling for a few more days before returning to Shencheng. The storm he caused over there was not over yet.
But when he walked out of the main building of the villa, he felt a warmth coming over him.
Although the sun is shining brightly today, it feels too warm for a winter morning.
You must know that Shu Guan knew very well how cold it was last night. When he returned to Teng's house, although the temperature at that time could not be said to be like dripping water turning into ice, it was always two or three degrees below zero.
In this era, Dahua has not yet established a systematic and complete weather forecasting facility, so it is naturally impossible to provide the public with fairly accurate weather forecasts.
However, Shuguan does not need any weather forecast. As a practitioner, he can naturally sense the changes in the solar terms of heaven and earth.
So last night, Shuguan was quite sure that it would snow today.
Unexpectedly, what he saw when he opened his eyes was a sunny day. What surprised him even more was that the temperature outside the house was actually so warm.
How could the solar terms of heaven and earth change so dramatically overnight?
Shu Guan was a little confused.
Sitting on the Western-style wicker chair on the lawn, drinking coffee brought by the servant, after sitting for half an hour, Shu Guan felt that his whole body was getting warmer and stronger.
He knew very well that this was not because he had just drank a cup of hot coffee, but because the surrounding temperature was rising rapidly. This rising speed far exceeded the normal speed of the winter sun heating the ground.
At this time, Teng Huiyi, who had finally gotten up, also walked out of the villa door. She was originally wearing a mink velvet coat and a thick woolen lady's hat, but when she just walked out of the door, she stuck out her tongue. Said something.
"Why is it so hot today? Cousin-in-law, please wait for me. I'll go change some clothes first."
Half an hour later, when Teng Huiyi walked out of the villa again, she had already changed into a set of spring clothes.
However, the weather outside at this time does make people feel like we are in spring.
…
The next day, Jinling was still as warm as spring.
…
On the third day, the weather in Jinling became warmer, and Shu Guan even saw peach buds quietly starting to sprout on the branches of a peach tree by the wall of the villa.
This is very abnormal!
Shu Guan thought this while standing in front of the peach tree.
…
The city of Jinling is known as the furnace in Dahua because its summers are very hot.
However, Jinling is very cold in winter, because although it is a southern city, it is located at the junction of the north and south of China. The temperature in winter is not lower than that of northern cities. In addition, the water vapor from the river is , resulting in the extremely wet and cold climate in Jinling after winter, especially at the beginning of February. This time in previous years has been the coldest period in Jinling. Even many people from the three continents outside the Guanhai Pass would be very upset if they came to Jinling at this time in previous years. He was about to "froze to death in the south".
But this year in Jinling, the days have just entered February, and the weather is unreasonably warm, as if spring has arrived a few months early.
Major newspapers and periodicals in Jinling City were reporting on this strange incident, about the cherry blossoms blooming by the Xuanwu Lake, and about someone being bitten by a snake that ended hibernation prematurely.
But generally speaking, the atmosphere in Jinling City has been relatively cheerful these days. People in the city have long been tired of the long, wet and cold winter. It is naturally a happy thing for spring to arrive early.
And although Jinling is now the capital of the Republic of China, there are definitely many poor and homeless people who freeze to death on the streets every winter. In addition, there was another flood in Xuanwu Lake this summer, and there are still many victims crowded in shanties by Xuanwu Lake. In the district, surviving this winter is simply a life and death test for them, and if the weather gets warmer as soon as possible, many of the victims will naturally die less.
So these days, when Shu Guan and Teng Huiyi went out to play, they could feel that the entire Jinling City was filled with a happy atmosphere, and their ears were filled with laughter.
People took off their thick winter clothes and went out in groups for an outing.
But Shu Guan was not happy at all.
Especially when he sent a telegram back to Shencheng to inquire and found out that the weather in Shencheng had been around zero these days, Shu Guan felt that something was very wrong with the warm winter sun in Jinling these days.
Happy New Year everyone!
In addition to family gatherings today, I declined two New Year's Eve happy activities and coded for everyone at home.
Although there are not many words, I can still ask for votes.
