ninety thousand miles

Chapter 103 Reunion

After Li Chuan and his party revealed their identities and intentions to the door, Zhu Qingyun ran out after a while, and while leading them inside, he said: "You came just in time. I was released from the palace yesterday. If you come again Come two days late, maybe I will be in Suliu Lake."

She was wearing a twilight short jacket and a moon blue long skirt, the color was very plain, and the waist skirt was embroidered with flowers and birds in dark patterns.

Li Chuan observed her hair secretly, it seemed that it had grown completely.

After leading Wukong and Tiejiang Cen to the Monster Hunting Division, she led Li Chuan and the two demons inside, walked through the side hall, passed through a courtyard, and finally arrived at a calculation room.

She said: "This is where I usually work. You sit down for a while, and I will come when I go."

After Zhu Qingyun left, Li Chuan walked around the room and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall. Although he couldn't understand them, he still thought they were very beautiful. He stood by the window again and looked at the scenery in the courtyard. The flowers and trees were in order. The order, obviously carefully taken care of.

Gong Er said: "This place is not bad, will the elder brother also work here in the future?"

Pang San looked at the pond in the courtyard and said, "It's just that the pond is a bit small, and there are only a few fish in it."

Gong Er said that he also saw the chubby koi in the pond and said: "The food here must be good."

After a while, Zhu Qingyun came back.

She said: "Master is not here for now, when he is here later, I will lead you there."

"How is the situation now?" Li Chuan asked.

"It's quite troublesome." Zhu Qingyun obviously suppressed it for a long time in the palace, and his words were full of indignation, "Someone actually believed the words of the spirit fish monster, and thought that as long as the master stepped down, the spirit fish monster would calm down. It's no wonder! I don't even think about it, if it wasn't for the master who has guarded the Qin Tianjian all these years, maintained the relationship with several major sects of Taoism, and frightened those monsters and ghosts from time to time, maybe half of the country has been handed over to the monsters."

Then she asked, "Is that why you came here too?"

Seeing Zhu Qingyun's shining round eyes, Li Chuan chose to tell the truth, "I'm here to find your second senior brother, Jin Rong."

"When did you get along so well?" Zhu Qingyun was a little surprised, "After the second brother came back, he also praised you a lot."

"Why did he praise me?" Li Chuan was a little curious.

"He said that you can stick to your heart, not afraid of power, and you are very brave." Zhu Qingyun repeated Jin Rong's words.

Li Chuan was very happy to hear that, and then he told Zhu Qingyun about the injury of Jin Rong's soul and repairing the Tianyin Pot with him.

"So that's how it is." Zhu Qingyun understood Li Chuan's reason for coming, and she said softly: "The second brother is not in Suliu Lake, and the master has given him other tasks. I don't know the details. You might as well stay here for a few days and wait for him." Come back, just in time for me to show you around."

Then he stomped his feet lightly: "Second Senior Brother is really serious. He was injured and didn't say anything. He just ran wherever he was in danger. He really didn't want his life."

Li Chuan was a little curious, "Will His Majesty really remove your master's official position?"

Zhu Qingyun's face showed a gloomy look, "Your Majesty, it's hard to say. Even if she doesn't want to compromise in her heart, it's hard to say what decision she will make in the end for the sake of balance." She said two things in a row, and then explained , "King Dagon Dragon has many people who support him, so..."

Then she said: "Actually, they never thought that monsters would really appear in front of them one day. There are many masters in Beijing, but...not that many."

She sighed, "I have lived in the palace for so many days, His Majesty often called me to speak, and sometimes discussed political affairs with the ministers, and let me listen on the sidelines...but I have no idea what she thinks arrive."

Then he sighed again: "Finally out of the palace, I will never go in again."

Li Chuan understood what Zhu Qingyun meant, and he comforted him, "Your Majesty hasn't spoken yet. Qin Tianjian has announced that all capable people and strange men from all over the world are coming..."

"This is also a troublesome matter." Zhu Qingyun was even more worried, "This notice was not issued by the master, but by Yan Jiancheng without permission... The details are too complicated, so I won't talk about it. Now there are so many people with cultivation bases If they rush into the capital, there will definitely be troubles, small things are fine, I'm afraid they will be provoked by someone with a heart..." She stopped her voice again, and said: "So starting next week, a garrison will be set up outside the city. Come to settle them, the third senior brother is busy with this matter. Forget it, let’s not talk about it, let me treat you to dinner.”

After hearing this, Li Chuan also felt that his head was full of grass.Fortunately, he knew that he had no talent in these matters.So after comforting Zhu Qingyun a few words, he followed her to dinner with peace of mind.

Zhu Qingyun took Li Chuan to a small restaurant at the corner of the street next to Qin Tianjian, told the shopkeeper that he wanted food for four people, as usual, and then walked to the second floor.

Zhu Qingyun introduced: "This store has been open from the previous dynasty to the present. The emperor has changed a lot, but the shopkeeper has not changed. He and the master are good friends, so we can often come to eat."

After entering the box and sitting down, it didn't take long for the dishes to be served one by one.

It looks like a home-cooked dish, but the taste is unusual.Compared with the pitch-black pan at the foot of Tianju Mountain, it can be said to be complete in color, fragrance and taste.

Zhu Qingyun didn't mention any more worries, but asked about the case of Xialin Village, "Is Brother Guan really dead?"

"I also passed out at that time, but I think I must have died completely." Li Chuan thought for a while and then said, "It can be seen that Daoist Wen is very sad. Although he is always smiling, he occasionally shows sadness. , can’t fake it.”

As he said that, he thought of the Xuantai Spiritual Light Society, so he asked, "Xuantai Spiritual Light Society, are you going?"

"I originally wanted to go around," Zhu Qingyun's face became depressed again, "it's hard to say now, forget it, you don't have to worry about it, anyway, the soldiers will cover up the water and the soil, the master is really going to be dismissed, I It's not a broken official anymore."

Li Chuan knew that what she said was angry, so he didn't try to persuade her, but continued to chat about what he had seen on the road while eating.Gong Er and Pang San also added on the side, and the atmosphere finally got better gradually.

As he said that, Li Chuan suddenly thought of someone, and asked, "By the way, is Lao Xiaokai still in prison?"

It was summer when Zhu Qingyun met him, and now summer is coming again.

"It's still there," Zhu Qingyun replied, "Our people who went to the Cangwu Field came back last month, which can be regarded as confirming what Lao Xiao said... It's just that I was in the palace before, and the spirit fish monster happened later. That’s why he hasn’t been released yet.”

She said, "If you want to see him, we'll just go and release him in the afternoon."

Li Chuan said: "He is not considered a treacherous person. He has been in prison for almost a year, and he has received retribution. Let him be released. Educate him well so that he will not lie gone."

After eating, Zhu Qingyun took Li Chuan for a walk in the nearby streets, and then went to Qin Tianjian's prison.

The cells here are all monks and monsters, so they have to go through layers of prohibitions, and the guards are also very strict.Zhu Qingyun asked Gong Er and Pang San to wait outside the gate.

Li Chuan was brought by Zhu Qingyun, and encountered several inspections. After his identity was verified, he arrived at the gate of the prison smoothly.

Zhu Qingyun asked him to wait outside and walked in.

Li Chuan found a cool place to stand.On the side of the hunter, he just glanced at it, and he felt that the system and norms were very clear; the same is true on the prison side.It can be seen that Gong Wuguang has control over Qin Tianjian.Jian Cheng was able to issue notices without authorization.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Soon, Zhu Qingyun brought Lao Xiaokai out.

Probably because I haven't been in the sun for a long time, my face is so white and shiny, it seems that I have gained a lot of weight, and it looks more like a boiled egg.
