Chapter 1426 The Book of Heaven changes ownership

Chapter 1426 The Book of Heaven changes ownership
  Songhai City, riverside streets.

At this time, the sky began to gradually emit light, and it was approaching dawn.

Most of the patrol soldiers that were originally coming and going on the street had withdrawn at this time.

After Fusu came to Songhai, he always warned Meng Tian not to disturb the people too much.

The theft of Qianji Tower last night sounded serious, but after all, it was done, and Meng Tian and other senior officials in the empire didn't care much about it.

Therefore, Meng Tian still obeyed the instructions of his eldest son Fusu and canceled the blockade of the whole city before dawn, and withdrew most of the soldiers patrolling the streets to avoid disturbing the people.

This is obviously convenient for Zhang Liang and his party who are still wandering on the street at this time.

If they were still in the previous state of martial law, their journey would be much more difficult.

Now, it's very leisurely.

Several people took advantage of the faint morning light and arrived at the wooden bridge across the river where they had met Chu Nan Gong three days ago.

Apart from them, there was not a single soul in sight on the street, and the bridge was also deserted.

Shao Yu carried Tian Ming on his back and looked at the empty bridge. He asked Zhang Liang with some worry, "Third Master... Senior Nan Gong has already left, right?"

To be honest, in terms of the time period that the word "early morning" refers to, the time they came here was not considered late, but it was basically as if they came here on time.

Generally, early morning refers to the time from midnight to the end of Yin hour, and the current time is about to pass Yin hour (five o'clock in the morning).

It is normal for Shaoyu to be worried like this.

However, Zhang Liangliang was very knowledgeable. Even if Chu Nangong arrived early, he would not leave early because he didn't expect anyone. He would definitely wait for dawn to appear.

Since he said he would give gifts, Chu Nan Gong must deliver the things to Tianming before settling the matter.

There is no one on the bridge now, which only means one thing - Chu Nan Gong hasn't come yet.

It's normal for an elderly person to wake up a little later. It's understandable that it's early in the morning and it's understandable that he wakes up after sunrise.

Shao Yu glanced at Tian Ming, who was still unconscious behind him, and asked Zhang Liangdao, "Is it inappropriate for Tian Ming to stay awake until then?"

After all, Chu Nan Gong was also a respected senior, and he came to give gifts to a junior like Tian Ming. Tian Ming fell asleep all the time, and the scene didn't look very good.

To add, Tianming is now said to be in a coma, but Shaoyu always feels that he is just sleeping.

Zhang Liang shook his head with a smile, "It doesn't matter, Senior Nangong won't care about it, and he might wake up at dawn soon."

"Hmm..." Shao Yu nodded, accepted Zhang Liang's statement, and then asked curiously, "By the way, Third Master, do you know what the old Nan Gong wants to give Tianming as a gift?"

Zhang Liang didn't answer, but gave it a try, "Haha, you'll know in a minute."

After answering Shao Yu, Zhang Liang turned to look at Shi Lan, who was silent, and took the initiative to ask:
  "Miss Shi Lan, you came here specially. You must have something to do, right?"

Hearing Zhang Liang's inquiry, Shi Lan hesitated for a moment, and suddenly remembered the scene of Zhang Liang and Gu Xun coming out of the same room one after another. She nodded and answered:

"I have something to ask the sage from Chu."

"Tianming and Shaoyu told me that the sage seemed to be able to know the future, so..."

"Hmm..." Zhang Liang smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood, and did not continue to ask further questions.

This little girl from Shushan seemed to be quite defensive. Zhang Liang was a little surprised that she was willing to answer his first question. There was no need to rush to ask the extra questions.

Maybe we'll find out later.

In just a few words, the sky was completely bright. Although the sun had not risen yet, it was already daytime.

After all, it is summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and the light comes early. As the sky became brighter, scattered pedestrians gradually appeared on the street.

This is the case in this era. People work at sunrise and rest at sunset. This is true whether they live in the countryside or in the city.

Because lighting means are limited and expensive.

As people flow in, the familiar atmosphere of the market gradually spreads on the streets.

At this time, Chu Nan Gong, who was leaning on crutches, appeared at the other end of the wooden bridge. He was hunched over and slowly walked towards Zhang Liang and the others.

When Zhang Liang and others saw the old man, they definitely couldn't just stand there and wait for him to come over, so they hurriedly took the initiative to greet him.

When the two sides met, Zhang Liang clasped his hands and saluted, "Senior Nangong, good morning."

Chu Nangong waved his idle left hand, indicating to Zhang Liang that he didn't need to be polite, and said with a smile, "Hahaha, I'm old, and I don't get up as early as you young people."

"Where's little Ziming?"

"Ziming..." Zhang Liang looked back with a smile and replied, "Ziming is asleep and hasn't woken up yet."

Perhaps in order to cooperate with Zhang Liang's words, Tianming happened to have a snot bubble coming out of his nose at this time, blowing loudly, and then broke with a pop.

Chu Nanggong looked at Tianming who was sleeping soundly on Shao Yu's back, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and then asked in a bewitching tone:

"Ah, Ziming is asleep... Then, doesn't he want his gift?"

Shao Yu was anxious when he heard this. It was not easy to work all night. Everyone from Tian Ming almost got involved. He couldn't just fall short at the last minute, so he quickly wanted to explain to Tian Ming.

But maybe Chu Nan Gong’s tone was too seductive, or maybe the gift he mentioned was really very attractive to Tianming. Tianming, who had been unconscious all this time, actually made a sound at this time:
  "Ah? A gift...what gift?"

Hearing Tianming's voice, Shao Yu didn't bother to explain to Chu Nan Gong and quickly turned to look at him.

Sure enough, the boy was already awake, rubbing his eyes sleepily, but still didn't react to anything.

Seeing this, Zhang Liang smiled and joked, "Ziming woke up as soon as he heard the gift. It seems that he is very much looking forward to the gift that Senior Nangong mentioned."

But at this time, Tianming was still dazed and rubbed his eyes, trying to fall asleep again.

Seeing this, Shao Yu quickly raised his shoulders and knocked Tian Ming on the head.

This move made him sober up a little, and he unconsciously repeated the gift he had been talking about before.

Seeing that nothing happened to Tianming, Shaoyu felt relaxed and joked to him with a smile:
  "Boy, you're still asleep. Do you want the gift?"

"Yeah! Yes, I definitely want it!" As soon as he heard that the gift was about to fly away, Tianming perked up and responded quickly, but his eyes still seemed to be glued together and he couldn't open them.

Shaoyu urged at this time, "Okay, if you want a gift, get up quickly!"

"You pretended to be asleep all the way and let your big brother carry you for so long!"

Tianming ignored him, muttering about the gift, and wanted to fall asleep again.

Shao Yu didn't tolerate him anymore this time, and he threw the other person off his back and threw him to the ground.

As soon as the dizzy Tianming landed on the ground, he immediately began to sway from side to side. Upon seeing this, Shao Yu stretched out his hand and held his head, immobilizing him.

Then Shaoyu thought for a moment, rolled his eyes, smiled, then leaned into Tianming's ear and suddenly shouted:
  “The roast chicken is done!!!”

"Yeah! Roast chicken! Where can there be roast chicken? Where can there be roast chicken!?" Tian Ming was startled. He immediately became energetic and jumped three feet high. His eyes widened and he looked around while mumbling something.

 The chapter name is wrong again...
