casket of old days

Chapter 271 Missing
The four of them arched their hands to each other, feeling a sense of loss.

The year of getting along on the mountain has allowed the four of them to form a deep friendship. In Chu Qiguang's view, Zhang Haizhu and Zhang Haizhu all have the possibility of becoming members of the Chu Party in the future.

Zhang Haizhu looked at the backs of Huang Xiangyu and Li Chu leaving, looked at Chu Qiguang who was beside him and said, "Brother Chu, when are we going to start?"

Chu Qiguang looked at Chen Gang and Zhang Jitian who were running from a distance, and nuzzled and said, "The person who picked me up is here. But I have to go back to my hometown first. What are your plans, Haizhu?"

Zhang Haizhu smiled helplessly: "There is no one in my house for a long time, so let's go back with Brother Chu this time."

They went to Shuzhou to serve before April this year. They were not in a hurry along the way and had plenty of time.

At this moment, another group of carriages suddenly came down the mountain and stopped in front of Chu Qiguang and the others.

Master of Heavenly Master Zhao Lingxiao got off the carriage, looked at Chu Qiguang and said, "I'm going back to Shuzhou, and I'll send you many Taoist scriptures in this carriage."

Chu Qiguang looked at Zhao Lingxiao's sluggish face, and asked with concern, "Daoist Zhao? Are you okay? Why do you want to go back all of a sudden?"

Zhao Lingxiao looked at Chu Qiguang with a complicated expression. He couldn't figure out why such a pious young man could not activate his faith.

If it is pretending, then it can only be said that the other party is an unprecedented treacherous and evil person.

But can a 16-year-old boy really do this?

But if it's not pretending, what does it mean?
Zhao Lingxiao sighed: "It's okay, I'm just not in a good condition to continue preaching on Chaoyao Mountain, so go back to Shuzhou to relax. Are you going to Shuzhou to take a job?"

"If you go to Qitong Mansion, you can come to Zhao's house to find me, and I will treat you to dinner."

Chu Qiguang knew that although Zhao Lingxiao was a Taoist priest taught by a celestial master, the Zhao family he was in was also a famous family in Shuzhou.

After saying goodbye to the other party, Chu Qiguang accepted the driveway, but his face was a little helpless.

Because these ordinary scriptures in front of him are temporarily useless to him now...

After saying goodbye to Zhao Lingxiao, Chu Qiguang took Zhang Haizhu and Chen Gang with him, planning to stay at Zhang Jitian's house for a day first, and then set off back to Wangjiazhuang the next day.

Chen Gang didn't need Chu Qiguang's instructions, he had already sat in front of the carriage and drove.

In the past year, he followed Chu Qiguang from south to north, and besides breaking through to the second level of martial arts, the biggest improvement is that he has more eyes.

Now Chu Qiguang doesn't need to order most of the things, and Chen Gang will do them in advance.

When Chu Qiguang saw Chen Gang, he suddenly remembered and asked, "Chen Gang, you are going to Shuzhou with me next time, have you told your family about this?"

Chen Gang smiled dumbly: "Needless to say, they can't control me. And knowing that I'm running around with you, Brother Gou, they will only be happy."

On the way, Zhang Jitian and Zhang Haizhu got to know each other again, and Chu Qiguang said, "Jitian, this time I'm going to Shuzhou, so you can go with me too."

"Ah? No... this Shuzhou..."

When Zhang Jitian heard this, his face collapsed. In his eyes, Shuzhou was the southwestern border, a barren land, full of all kinds of monsters, bandits, and cults.

'That poor place might not even have a brothel. '

At the thought of leaving here, leaving the rich life of restaurants, Goulan, hunting, etc., Zhang Jitian kept retreating in his heart.

Chu Qiguang ignored his ugly face, and continued: "You followed me to hone and hone along the way, and you will go to the martial arts exam in two years, and you will come back with a martial arts champion."

Chu Qiguang still remembered that Qiao Zhi said that the other party was the future champion of martial arts. Of course, he had to bring him by his side to train him well so that he could help him in the court in the future.

It can be said that Zhang Jitian is also a member of Chu Qiguang's future Chu Party.

And most of his current assets are invested in shares and Yaoyin Village, but going to Shuzhou will always cost money, right?
The more he looked at Zhang Jitian, the more he felt that Zhang Jitian was a good ATM candidate.

Zhang Jitian made the last struggle, and said with a sad face: "Brother Chu, my parents are not far away. As long as I leave my parents too far away, I will feel very upset."

Chu Qiguang grinned, exuding a burst of cold light: "It's okay, then take your parents and go together, and I will help you carry it when the time comes."

Zhang Jitian's heart trembled when he heard this, and he could only say with a bitter face: "No need, no need, I think about how a good man can stay at home all day long with his ambitions everywhere. I'd better go out with you, Brother Chu, to hone your skills."

Chu Qiguang said: "Remember to bring more bank notes."

Zhang Jitian couldn't help but said, "Is there a silver shop in that place?"

Chu Qiguang looked at the other party as if he did not expect Zhang Jitian to discriminate against Shuzhou based on the region.

Chu Qiguang said: "I have inquired about it. There are many Han people in Rongjin Mansion in Shuzhou, and it is also very prosperous. It is not inferior to the land in the Central Plains."

……

In the big library half a month later.

The gatekeeper looked at Lin Lan who was sitting motionless and sighed silently.

When he walked behind Lin Lan, he saw that the other party was indeed reading the collection of poems left by Chu Qiguang.

I saw that it also said "If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be in the morning and evening."

Suddenly, the janitor found that the figure of the other party seemed to flicker with the change of lights, which surprised him suddenly.

"This... won't be..."

There was cold sweat on the gatekeeper's forehead, and he remembered a conversation many years ago.

……

"Xiao Hai, don't cry."

"I will continue to stay here to guard the big library in the future... But at that time, I may not remember you."

"But I will always have such an obsession in my heart, guarding the big library...read every book in the big library."

"But you must also remember that times change and the world changes. The only constant in the world is change itself. One day... the obsession in my heart may disappear or change."

"At that time, you have to stop me and don't make me mess up."

……

The janitor touched his head subconsciously, as if he recalled the temperature of that gentle figure comforting himself while stroking his head.

He looked at Lin Lan in front of him, and saw Lin Lan also looking at him: "Master Hai, why can't I leave the big library?"

The gatekeeper swallowed his saliva and said, "You are the history keeper of the big library, and this is your duty."

Lin Lan stroked the collection of poems on the table, and sighed, "Brother Chu must be thinking of me now, right?"

The gatekeeper opened his mouth, suddenly he didn't know what to say.

He sighed in his heart: "Uncle, no matter how hard you calculate, you can't calculate that you will end up in the hands of a man after you have exhausted all your tricks in your life, right?" '

……

On the official road outside Qingyang County.

Chu Qiguang turned around, and saw a fiery red figure galloping towards him on a horse.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and after seeing the other person's figure clearly, he secretly said: 'Oh?Isn't this Hao Xiangtong, the Taoist seedling? '

At this moment, Hao Xiangtong was wearing a crimson exercise suit, wrapping his body, showing exquisite curves and slender and powerful legs.

Practicing martial arts all the year round gave her a kind of heroism and vitality that ordinary ladies don't have.

Chu Qiguang hadn't seen the other party for a long time, and when we saw each other again at this moment, he found that the other party's energy looked far higher than before, and there was a kind of flying confidence in his eyes that was invisible in the past.

Hao Xiangtong ran up to Chu Qiguang on horseback, walked around him and said with a smile, "I heard that you are going to Shuzhou in a few days? I will go with you."

Chu Qiguang said unexpectedly: "Can your father agree?"

Hao Xiangtong raised her head proudly: "Why do you want him to agree? Anyway, he doesn't agree with what I want to do, so I just don't bother to ask."

Chu Qiguang felt that the other party must be hiding something: "This woman seems to have another purpose. '

Hao Xiangtong looked at Chu Qiguang and said, "Aren't you good at riding a horse?"

After seeing Chu Qiguang shaking his head, Hao Xiangtong laughed: "How can you not ride a horse when you are so old? Be careful that you will be laughed at by your colleagues when you go to Shuzhou."

As she spoke, she patted the saddle and said, "Come up! I'll teach you!"

Chu Qiguang thought to himself: "There is definitely something wrong with this woman, I want to see what tricks she plays." '

Seeing the appearance of Hao Xiangtong and Chu Qiguang riding together, Chen Gang, who was originally following Chu Qiguang, walked more and more slowly, fell further and further behind, silently turning himself into a ball of air.
