evening.

Chaosi Lane.

When Li Mengzhou opened his eyes again, he was already hanging upside down in the air, his feet facing upwards and his head facing down, and he fell to the ground miserably.

Gu Shiyan clapped her hands relaxedly and walked towards the rattan chair that Li Mengzhou often sat on.

Sitting on the rattan chair under the eaves, Gu Shiyan poured herself a cup of hot tea, looked at Li Mengzhou's resentful eyes and said lightly: "I don't know anyone in the capital of Jiangguo. I have come to this foreign land thousands of miles away and always need a place to stay, which is very suitable here. If you have any objections, I will beat you up."

Although Li Mengzhou was not convinced, he did not dare to resist.

He had already experienced the consequences of resistance and was beaten very badly.

On the way back from Jialan Temple, Li Mengzhou retrieved the Wuqing Sword, but Gu Shiyan kept following him. Li Mengzhou didn't care much at first. Since Gu Shiyan wanted to investigate people related to Dan Tai Jing, she naturally had to live in Langya City.

But unexpectedly, Gu Shiyan wanted to live in her small courtyard in Chaosi Lane.

Of course, Li Mengzhou could not agree.

Then after a long period of 'friendly negotiations', he had to surrender.

From then on, a female guest officer was added in Chaosi Lane.

As the head of the courtyard, Li Mengzhou was bullied and swallowed his anger.

Just thinking of this picture, Li Mengzhou's teeth were itchy and speechless.

Gu Shiyan drank a cup of tea, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "I'm hungry, you go and cook."

The resentment in Li Mengzhou's heart seemed to be aroused, and suddenly jumped up from the ground and said angrily: "You live in my house and don't pay a penny. Shouldn't you do the cooking?"

Gu Shiyan said a little unnaturally: "I can't cook."

Li Mengzhou sighed: "I live in my family. It's great that my hands are not touched by the spring water."

Gu Shiyan said impatiently: "I am extremely hungry and I want to hit someone."

Li Mengzhou sighed helplessly and said, "I'm not in the mood to cook today. I'll go to Aunt Feng's place to buy two bowls of noodles."

Gu Shiyan said with satisfaction: "Add more chopped green onions and minced meat."

Li Mengzhou walked out of the yard and paused slightly, muttering to himself: "There's so much, it's not a lot of money to add meat."

......

Li Mengzhou, who returned to the courtyard with two bowls of hot noodles, saw Gu Shiyan walking out of his room and said casually: "I took a quick look. Your room is the best, so it's mine now."

Li Mengzhou almost covered two bowls of hot noodles on her beautiful face.

Gu Shiyan seemed to have no idea that Li Mengzhou had any desire to do anything, so she sat at the dining table and slapped the table, obviously urging her.

Li Mengzhou took a deep breath, placed a bowl of noodle soup in front of Gu Shiyan, and sat opposite him with another bowl, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Gu Shiyan deserves to be a lady of a noble family, and even eating noodles is a very beautiful picture.

The scallion finger picked up the chopsticks, scratched the scallion and minced meat on it, stirred it slowly for a while, then picked up a piece of dough and put it into your mouth, chewed it slowly, and it had a very unique temperament.

Li Mengzhou subconsciously looked up and kept this move, completely stunned.

Compared to his greasy look, Gu Shiyan is much cleaner and tidy, forming a clear contrast, just like a beggar who is a daughter sitting with a beggar who is begging for noodles, full of incongruity.

Gu Shiyan didn't care that Li Mengzhou stared at her in a daze. While eating noodles slowly, she said coldly: "Since you are ready to kill Dan Tai Jing, maybe you also know Dan Tai Jing's interpersonal relationships. Who are the people who are better than him?"

Li Mengzhou swallowed the face in his mouth, was silent for a while, and said, "Dan Tai Jing's popularity is not very good. There is no particularly good person, and he never visits other families. Even in the Censorate, he is always in business and has never participated in a cocktail party."

Although Gu Shiyan already lives in his house, Li Mengzhou is still alert at all times. Of course, he is not willing to inform him of the matter that Dan Tai Jing is under Qin Chengyi's command.

If Gu Shiyan went to find Qin Chengyi's trouble, not to mention whether she could succeed, she would definitely be alarmed and might even involve herself.

Li Mengzhou was not yet prepared to face Qin Chengyi.

He just killed Dan Tai Jing and almost died. Once Qin Chengyi noticed him, his chance of survival would be equal to nothing.

Gu Shiyan glanced at Li Mengzhou casually and said, "I heard all the conversations you had with Dan Tai Jing at that time. He suspected that you were a disciple of Buerdong, so are you?"

Li Mengzhou was slightly stunned and smiled and said, "You said he was just suspicious, and I heard it for no reason. Even before that, I didn't know the existence of Bu Erdong at all."

There is a logic to follow these words. After all, Li Mengzhou is only seventeen years old now, and Bu Erdong has been destroyed for twelve years. At that time, Li Mengzhou was too young. If he stayed in the market, it would be even more impossible to learn about the world of cultivation. In addition, Jiang Guo strictly prohibited discussing anything about Bu Erdong, which was reasonable for the young man to not know about it.

Gu Shiyan said calmly: "Suspicion is always based on evidence, for example, why did you kill Dan Tai Jing?"

Li Mengzhou smiled and said, "This is even more nonsense. If the person who can kill Dan Tai Jing must be a disciple of Bu Erdong, then wouldn't the girl also want to kill Dan Tai Jing? And she has already killed it."

Gu Shiyan remained silent and continued to eat noodles.

After Li Mengzhou finished speaking, a strange look appeared on his face, but he had a different thought in his heart.

His intention to kill Dan Tai Jing is naturally related to Buerdong. Dan Tai Jing’s suspicion is not wrong, but why is Gu Shiyan?

Li Mengzhou frowned, looked at Gu Shiyan who was eating noodles, and asked seriously: "Are you a man from Bu Erdong?"

Gu Shiyan didn't even raise her head, had a face in her mouth, and said vaguely: "No."

Li Mengzhou continued to ask, "Then do you know the people in Buer Cave?"

Gu Shiyan paused for a moment when eating noodles, continued to eat noodles, and said, "I don't know you."

Li Mengzhou shook his head and said, "You and I are the same."

Gu Shiyan seemed to have a good appetite and ate very quickly. She no longer chewed slowly. After she saw the bottom of the bowl and swallowed all the soup, Gu Shiyan put down her chopsticks and stood up and said, "I'm going to bed."

Li Mengzhou narrowed his eyes and kept watching Gu Shiyan walk into her room, then closed the door, and his eyes never left.

He silently packed up the leftovers on the table, then sat on a rattan chair under the eaves, and looked at the stars.

The stars tonight are beautiful.

Just like I saw it in Fengjiang.

He had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Thinking of Wang Paner and his daughter in Shuning Town, thinking of the blacksmith Cui Cai, and thinking of everyone in Shuning Town who had been together for three years.

I thought of Lin Shaoyun and Mo Lian in Huacheng, and even more of the girl who likes Snow Geese Flower.

When he decided to leave Shuning Town, he was destined to say goodbye to many people forever.

Because he doesn't know how long he can live.

The situation in the capital is too complicated.

He will meet more people and become enemies with more people.

The only way to survive is to keep getting stronger, so strong that you can overlook the world.

Only the strong can protect what they want to protect and destroy all the thorns on the road.

Darkness and light are not opposites, but coexist.

In the darkness, facing the light, yearning for the light.

......

......

A slight sound of opening the door came from outside the room. Li Mengzhou was rolled in the quilt and tried hard to open one of his eyes. Seeing the white figure standing at the door, he turned over sadly and muttered: "It's early in the morning, men and women don't kiss each other, why are you coming in?"

Because Gu Shiyan snatched away the best room and the bed that Li Mengzhou has used to sleeping, he has suffered from insomnia these two days. Because tomorrow is New Year's Eve, Ligong Jianyuan has also stopped morning classes, so he can sleep in comfortably.

Naturally, he has no good temper for Gu Shiyan, who disturbed his sleep.

Gu Shiyan said with a cold face: "It's already two hours, it's time to have breakfast."

Li Mengzhou rubbed his eyes in a daze and said angrily: "Isn't it enough to go to Aunt Feng's noodle shop opposite to eat!"

He was not angry at the time of getting up, but after only two days of living here in Gu Shiyan, he was angry at the time of getting up.

He was obviously a fairy-like girl who thought about eating every day, which really made Li Mengzhou feel extremely puzzled.

Gu Shiyan came to the bedside, stretched out her hand, and said, "On the way to Jiangguo, the money was basically spent. You prepared it the day before yesterday. If I asked me to eat it myself, I'll get the money."

Li Mengzhou was completely sleepy.

Apart from the salary he once paid by Tianshu Court, he still has no way to make money. He was originally just himself, but he could still live. At worst, he could eat free meals in Ligong Jianyuan, or go to Wenrou Village to eat free food at night, and he would not spend too much money.

Because Aunt Feng also has a husband who is ill in bed, Li Mengzhou was embarrassed to eat noodles every day without paying for it. But if Gu Shiyan did this, the only taels of silver he had on him would not be able to last until the New Year.

Gu Shiyan seems to have a good figure, but in fact she has a lot of appetite, which is enough to match the two Li Mengzhous.

It's really impossible to afford it.

The day before yesterday, because Li Mengzhou didn't want to cook for Gu Shiyan, he went out to buy food every time. The first night was fine, Gu Shiyan only ate one bowl of noodles, and from the next day, Li Mengzhou saw her appetite.

Today is the third day when Gu Shiyan lives in Chaosi Lane, and she has already spent six taels of silver on Li Mengzhou, which is enough for ordinary people to save money for several months.

If I had known this, even if I was beaten to death, I would not have agreed to Gu Shiyan live here.

However, Gu Shiyan has moved in, and it is completely meaningless to think these things.

Li Mengzhou lifted the quilt in depressed mood and got up with his clothes.

He ignored Gu Shiyan and was still standing next to him.

Although he was wearing an underwear, this behavior may not be a big deal in the Jiang Kingdom's atmosphere, after all, nothing was revealed, but the Western Jin Dynasty was not as open as the Jiang Kingdom. This was a very rude behavior for Gu Shiyan and could definitely rise to the ranks of the Dingtuzi.

So Gu Shiyan reacted quickly and turned her back, and a blush appeared on her cold face, but anger followed.

In Chaosi Lane, Aunt Feng stood at the door of the noodle restaurant, about to pour water out, suddenly heard a shrill scream, and then saw the small courtyard door diagonally opposite him being knocked open, and a figure flew out from inside and fell into the streets and alleys.

Li Mengzhou got up cursingly and tidied up his clothes.

Aunt Feng said in surprise: "Mengzhou, what are you doing?"

Li Mengzhou smiled awkwardly, waved at Aunt Feng, and said, "Aunt Feng, happy new year. It's nothing. I just want to experience the feeling of flying. You are busy."

Aunt Feng obviously couldn't understand the young man's imagination, but just cooperated and smiled, said Happy New Year, and returned to the noodle restaurant in confusion.
