Chapter 136 I'm just ugly
Chen Jiyue looked at Tao Ye very seriously. She still didn't think it clearly. Although she knew that Tao Ye admired the strong, especially the young strong, why was it Li Mengzhou?
Not to mention anything else, Ye Jinyu and Jiang Zihua were not old in the room, and Jiang Zihua was even a few months younger than Li Mengzhou, although few people knew about this fact.
If we only talk about the level of cultivation, Ye Jinyu will not talk about it. Due to the entanglement in the family business, he did not practice much seriously. Although he had temporarily put aside the family's affairs and entered the four realms, in comparison, Jiang Zihua was still stronger.
"What do you like Li Mengzhou?"
Chen Jiyue silently turned his fingers and said, "He has a black face like carbon, his clothes are not neat, his hair is not often taken care of, he loves to drink, he is unwilling to pay for the sword when he goes out to buy a sword, and he also has to fool others to pay for it. He is also very good at causing trouble. He is obviously not good-looking, but he can't tolerate others saying that he is ugly. Although it is indeed not ugly, except for being reluctant to see him, what is the point of his body that attracts you?"
Tao Ye stared at Chen Jiyue with a strange expression.
"You can actually tell me so many shortcomings of Senior Brother Li as you know. It's so amazing."
Jiang Zihua, He Zhengrong: "..."
Ouyang Shengxue picked up the tea that Chen Jiyue poured in advance, and as soon as she drank it into her mouth, she suddenly spit it out.
Ye Jinyu stood opposite, subconsciously took a step back, looked down at the wet area of his legs and feet, and was speechless.
Jiang Zihua looked at He Zhengrong with some clarity and said, "I think I should know why she likes Li Mengzhou."
He Zhengrong didn't comment.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the town and comes into the window.
Ouyang Shengxue listened silently for a moment, and suddenly broke out.
......
Around the hour of You, Qi Xiaoran rode his horse into the town.
He casually searched for an inn and watched the inn lead the horse into the backyard. He put down a ingot of silver at the counter and asked for a room.
This inn is very small, with not many people living in it, and the business is not particularly good. Qi Xiaoran is still cautious. Although it is already Jiang Guo, he also knows that his identity should not exist. If he is discovered by the secret exploration of Tianshuyuan, it will be a lot of trouble.
After he entered the room, he never came out again. During this period, he only had a shop assistant to deliver food. He sat in the room and recalled what happened in the Western Jin Dynasty. It is true that Gu Shiyan was indeed a student of Tornado Academy, and she also seemed to be the daughter of the Gu clan of Luoyang City, the Western Jin Dynasty.
The situation is actually somewhat similar to Ye Jinyu.
The Ye clan is the richest man in Jiang Kingdom. Although the Gu clan was not the richest man in the Western Jin Dynasty, he was also a prominent family and had considerable energy. However, it was only in the secular world. When he learned that Gu Shiyan had the qualifications to practice, the patriarch of the Gu clan tried his best to get Gu Shiyan to be admitted to the Tornado Academy.
Because Gu Shiyan himself has a high qualification for cultivation, she doesn’t have to do anything extra, and she successfully became a student of Tornado Academy.
Since then, the energy of the Gu clan in the Western Jin Dynasty has reached a higher level.
There is another big family in Luoyang City. When Gu Shiyan was still young, the two families formed a marriage contract. But I don’t know when the big family seemed to have some changes. The person who had a marriage contract with Gu Shiyan suddenly disappeared in the Western Jin Dynasty. The fact that Gu Shiyan had a marriage contract was not a secret in the Western Jin Dynasty, but it was not something that ordinary people could know. Moreover, Qi Xiaoran secretly investigated that the reason why Gu Shiyan left the Western Jin Dynasty and came to Jiang Kingdom seemed to be looking for her fiancé, but she was not involved with Li Mengzhou.
He had never found out the identity of Gu Shiyan's fiancé, because there was no other major clan in Luoyang City except the Gu clan. Something must have happened in Luoyang City back then. It would be difficult to investigate it in a short time. The Western Jin Dynasty court must have been deliberately blocking it.
But after Gu Shiyan left the Western Jin Dynasty, she came straight to Jiangguo, as if she was very sure that her fiancé was in Jiangguo, which was also something that confused Qi Xiaoran.
And the facts proved that Gu Shiyan had just arrived at the capital of Jiangguo and moved directly into Li Mengzhou's Chaosi Lane courtyard. He thought secretly whether there was any connection here?
Just as he was thinking hard, suddenly the sound of someone talking came from the next room, and an extremely familiar name jumped into his ears.
When he subconsciously wanted to inquire, he suddenly became alert. Almost in an instant, he broke out of the window, and the next moment, the door was kicked open from outside, and he happened to see Qi Xiaoran flying out of the window.
The person who kicked the door was Ouyang Shengxue. He looked back at Jiang Zihua and others who were following him for unknown reasons, and said in a deep voice: "You stay here, I'll chase you."
Before he finished speaking, Ouyang Shengxue also jumped out of the window.
Jiang Zihua looked at the empty room in surprise, scratching her head in confusion, not sure what was going on.
......
Somewhere outside the town, a flying sword came trembling and howling. The figure running in front was trying his best to avoid it, but the flying sword was still scratching his arm. In the pain, he groaned, and his body tilted, and then he fell heavily on the snow, covered with snowflakes on his face.
The flying sword returned to Ouyang Shengxue's hand. He swung it gently and a little blood bloomed on the snow.
Qi Xiaoran reached out to cover her face, stood up from the ground in a little embarrassed manner, staring at Ouyang Shengxue with a sinister look. When he met the eldest Mr. Ligong Sword Court here, he was extremely lucky.
He looked sideways at the clear blood mark on his left arm, with wisps of cold air coming out. It was the remaining sword energy, which was still tearing his wounds, as if he was stabbed by a needle.
He tried to distance himself from Ouyang Shengxue. It was actually very difficult for the sword cultivator to escape, because once the flying sword came out, you could not escape at all.
What's more, standing in front of him was Mr. Ligong Jianyuan.
The great sword cultivator at the peak of the fourth realm.
It may even be close to the threshold of the fifth realm.
Qi Xiaoran secretly called out that he was unlucky. He didn't want to be entangled with Ouyang Shengxue at all, and was always looking for a way to escape.
Even if his speed is not as fast as that of the sword cultivator's flying sword, if he surrenders, he will be unable to fly.
"Why did you break the window and run away?" Ouyang Shengxue frowned tightly. He was in the room and just noticed someone next door was peeping. He was a cultivator and had a good level of cultivation. But looking at Qi Xiaoran who was blocking his face, he still didn't know the other party's identity.
Qi Xiaoran remained silent.
Why break the window and run away?
Of course it was because he felt that he was discovered and also realized Ouyang Shengxue's identity. If he didn't escape, would he still be able to wait obediently?
It’s a pity that even if he escaped, he didn’t escape. Looking at Qi Xiaoran who was silent, Ouyang Shengxue felt a little strange. Moreover, Qi Xiaoran’s intentional behavior of covering her face with her hands was obviously afraid of being recognized. The reason for doing this must be that she really knew the other party.
But he did not feel that Qi Xiaoran's aura was so familiar.
"What are you hiding?"
Qi Xiaoran was still silent, but her eyes were sweeping around.
Ouyang Shengxue frowned. He suddenly waved his right hand and slashed his sword straight down. The sword energy grew rapidly and rushed towards Qi Xiaoran.
Qi Xiaoran's eyes were slightly stern, and he immediately swung his sword. The spiritual energy condensed instantly hit the sword energy, and he also took this opportunity to turn around and run away.
But suddenly a sword came forward, and Chen Qiubai stopped Qi Xiaoran.
He glanced at Qi Xiaoran, who seemed to be covering his face in a panic, looked at Ouyang Shengxue and said, "I noticed something strange, so I rushed over here, who is this person?"
Ouyang Shengxue said: "You will know naturally if you let his face be exposed."
Qi Xiaoran complained secretly, Ouyang Shengxue made it difficult for him to deal with it, and even Chen Qiubai arrived.
Chen Qiubai held Xingyun's sword and looked at Qi Xiaoran and said, "The great monk at the peak of the fourth realm deliberately covered his face. I think he should be a familiar person. Why do you hide it?"
Qi Xiaoran lowered his voice and said, "You misunderstood. I just look ugly and don't want to be seen. I don't know who the two are."
He looked back at Ouyang Shengxue and continued, "I just happened to live next door and overheard your conversation. It was not intentional, but I ran away from the window and just felt the danger and subconsciously."
Ouyang Shengxue was a little confused.
But Chen Qiubai chuckled and said, "Your sir, it is difficult to convince me of this statement. I don't care whether you look good or ugly, but I subconsciously just want to escape by breaking the window. It seems that you have some secrets. If we really don't know each other, please move your hand away. Even if you are really not good-looking, we won't laugh at you."
Qi Xiaoran was secretly annoyed and knew very well that the former head of Shuijingsi, the head of Shuijingsi, should have died long ago. If Chen Qiubai and Ouyang Shengxue learned that he was still alive, he would probably have died.
After all, he committed the serious crime of assisting King Yu in plotting rebellion.
Chen Qiubai and Ouyang Shengxue are both young people that His Majesty is very fond of, and are also loyal to His Majesty. Qi Xiaoran can't think of a reason for his life.
But if he did not reveal his identity, he would not give up easily by judging from the meaning of Chen Qiubai and Ouyang Shengxue, which put him in a dilemma.
"I'm really just ugly and can't stand it!"
He could only use this reason as an excuse and pretended to be stupid.
Thinking that he finally came back alive from the Western Jin Dynasty, he was in trouble again. If he had known this, he would not have agreed to Qin Chengyi to investigate Gu Shiyan in the Western Jin Dynasty. Although it was uncomfortable to stay in Luwang Mansion without seeing the sun, it was better than losing his life.
But now he regrets it too late, so his brain can only be running rapidly and thinking about countermeasures.
Even though they are at the peak of the fourth realm, Qi Xiaoran has no confidence to beat Chen Qiubai and Ouyang Shengxue, let alone the two of them.
Chen Qiubai frowned and looked at Ouyang Shengxue. The two of them had their eyes intersected. The next moment, the two swords were slashing towards Qi Xiaoran at the same time!
