Start Six Maids

The two looked at each other, then nodded and said, "Sit down."

Hearing this, Chu Ci was sure that the two of them were from the Southern Region because they had a strong Southern Region accent.

"Master Chu, you are here!"

The waiter came over with a pot of tea, put the pot in front of Chu Ci, and said with a smile, "Your tea."

Chu Ci waved his hand, "Go and do your work."

"okay!"

The waiter turned around and left.

Chu Ci held the teapot and each poured a cup for the two tea guests opposite him.

"Aren't the two from the Central Plains?"

The Longyan Empire has a vast territory, divided into four regions, the southeast, the north, and the west. The place where Shengjing City is located is called the Central Plains.

One of the dark-faced tea drinkers nodded and said, "Our two brothers are from the Southern Region."

"Southern Territory..." Chu Ci's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Isn't the Southern Territory far from here?"

Another short and sturdy tea drinker said, "It's really far enough, our brothers have traveled for more than half a year!"

Chu Ci added some tea to the two of them, and asked, "Since the journey was hard, why didn't you stay in the Southern Region? How did you come to the Central Plains?"

The dark-faced tea drinker smiled wryly and said, "If possible, who would be willing to travel so hard?"

"We can't help it either!"

After speaking, the tea guest raised his head and took a sip of tea.

Chu Ci became even more curious when he heard the words, "Is it difficult to mix the rivers and lakes in the Southern Region?"

Chu Ci could tell that the two of them had practiced martial arts, and their grades were not low, so they were both good players in the Central Plains.

The short and strong tea guest shook his head slightly, and sighed softly, "Hey, it's getting harder and harder to mix, especially for us casual cultivators."

Chapter 197

"Why is this?"

Chu Ci looked at the two tea drinkers from the Southern Region, and asked curiously, "Although the two are casual cultivators, I don't think the two ranks are low, so they can't maintain their lives, right?"

boom!

The dark-faced tea guest suddenly slapped the table and said harshly, "Isn't it the people in the weird place!"

Chu Ci's eyebrows trembled when he heard the words, and he couldn't help asking, "What does this have to do with the strange situation?"

The Department of Strange Affairs specializes in arresting monsters and suppressing strangeness, and has little contact with these knight-errants. How could this matter have anything to do with the Department of Weird Affairs?

The dark-faced tea drinker took a sip of tea, and then said, "Since a year ago, the rivers and lakes in the Southern Region have changed!"

Chu Ci picked up the teapot to refill the tea for the tea guest, and listened to his narration quietly.

About a year ago, the Southern Territory's Surprising Affairs Department suddenly issued a document.

The content is probably that in order to better supervise and deal with the weird incidents of monsters, people in the Jianghu in the southern region will be registered and included in the unified management of the court.

As soon as this document was released, it was resisted by people in the southern region.

People in the rivers and lakes have a free and easy temperament, especially casual cultivators, who are even more disobedient, so naturally they don't want to be ordered around by the court.

Moreover, this document only covers the Southern Region, and there are no such regulations in other regions of the Longyan Empire.

It's a pity that if you don't agree, you don't agree. This is of no use.

The suppression of this powerful organization, whether it is a sect in the world or a casual cultivator, can't make waves.

The first ones who agreed to be subdued were the various sects, because these sects had their own residences and properties, and they were pinched by the court, even if they refused to be subdued.

After dealing with the major sects, it's the turn of the casual cultivators like the black-faced tea drinker.

Although it is a casual cultivator in the world, but a casual cultivator also has a family, right?

Even if you don't have family, you still have friends and disciples, right?

As long as you are not alone, you will inevitably be involved.

In less than half a year, all the rivers and lakes in the Southern Region were defeated. As long as the strength exceeds the second level, it must be registered and included in the unified supervision of the court.

If that was the case, the two black-faced tea guests might not have left the Southern Region and traveled far to the Central Plains.

After being included in the supervision of the court, the actions of the knights of the rivers and lakes have been greatly restricted.

First of all, don't think about robbing the rich and helping the poor.

All the chivalrous men who dared to do so were sent to the prison of the imperial court.

In addition, it is also necessary to compulsorily accept the tasks assigned by the court, and as long as the tasks are completed, the rewards of the court can be obtained.

However, this reward is not enough for the knights of the rivers and lakes to spend during the mission.

After a period of time, people in the Jianghu in the southern region complained again and again, and the quality of life plummeted.

The major sects are even better, one is that they have enough background, and the other is that they still have land to support their lives.

But it will be miserable for a group of casual cultivators, and the casual cultivators usually don't have the habit of saving money, and they eat every meal.

In the past, when you had no money, you could still rob the rich and help the poor, or pretend to be a thug who robbed the road with a mask.

Now that there is court supervision, things that touch the law must not be done. Unfortunately, the way to get money is all written in the law.

In the arena, if you don't have money, you can't get along.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about food and accommodation, not everyone has the confidence to order a pot of good wine and two catties of cooked beef as soon as they enter a restaurant.

Moreover, people in the Jianghu have a good face, a good weapon and a good suit of clothes are indispensable cards.

These things also require money, right? What should I do if I don’t have money?

It took another three years to sew and mend the clothes, and the weapons were bumped into several times, and they were reluctant to change them.

The knights of the rivers and lakes who were originally carefree and wanton complained in agony.

Some people really couldn't hold on, they left the Southern Region directly and went to other places.

The two black-faced tea drinkers were like this. They really couldn't get along in the southern region, so they came all the way to the Central Plains.

After listening to the black-faced tea guest's narration, Chu Ci nodded slightly to express his sympathy.

"It's really not easy."

The black-faced tea drinker drank a cup of clear tea and complained, "Brother, judge and judge, isn't this strange place and court unreasonable!"

"Eh..." What can Chu Ci say?

As the man behind the bronze medalist of the Weiqing Department and the empress of the Longyan Empire, Chuci expressed his understanding of the regulations promulgated by the court in the southern region.

After all, apart from the weirdness of monsters, people in the world are the most unstable factors.

Chu Ci pondered for a moment, then asked aloud, "Brother, do you know who proposed this regulation?"

The black-faced tea guest thought for a while, and then said uncertainly, "I heard that it seems to be King Xian?"

Hearing the words, the short and sturdy tea drinker said in a deep voice, "I think it has something to do with King Xian!"

"He is in charge of the entire Southern Territory, wouldn't he know about this kind of thing?"

Chu Ci's eyes flashed when he heard the words.

There is no reason for King Xian not to know about such a big event in the Southern Region.

Even if this regulation was not proposed by King Xian, then he is also a supporter of the regulation.

After thinking about it, Chu Ci cupped his hands at the two black-faced tea guests and said, "Thank you for your explanation, I have invited you for today's tea!"

The eyes of the two black-faced tea guests flashed with joy, and they hurriedly said, "Brother, you are welcome!"

Chu Ci nodded slightly, got up and bid farewell to the two.

Stepping up to the teahouse counter, Chu Ci looked at Tong's shopkeeper and said, "Tong's shopkeeper, is Miss Gongsun here?"

Shopkeeper Tong hurriedly said, "Lord Chu, Miss Gongsun is in the backyard. Shall I take you there?"

Chu Ci waved his hand and said, "No, I'll go by myself."

After finishing speaking, Chu Ci walked straight towards the backyard of the teahouse.

The backyard of the teahouse, under the peach tree.

Gongsun Luluo was wearing a long green dress and was sitting at the stone table drinking alone.

"Miss Gongsun."

Chu Ci looked at Gongsun Luluo, and said with a smile, "What's the point of drinking alone, why not drink together?"

"Ha ha···"

Gongsun Luluo chuckled when she heard the words, took a cup with her hands and put it on the opposite side, and motioned, "Just wait for Mr. Chu."

"Haha..." Chu Cichang laughed, "Drink it together!"

Gongsun Luluo's drinking capacity is really good, and he drank ten pots of fine wine with Chu Ci, but his cheeks were only slightly red.

"call···"

Gongsun Luluo put down the wine glass, opened her mouth slightly and exhaled a scent of wine.

"Master Chu, would you like to see me dance a sword dance?"

Chu Ci's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said with a smile, "It's an honor!"

Gongsun Luluo's figure flashed, and he had already arrived in the middle of the courtyard.

"Young Master Chu, keep an eye on it!"

As soon as the words fell, Gongsun Luluo waved her sleeves and danced.

Clang!Clang!Clang!

The sound of swords filled the courtyard.

Gongsun Lvluo dances gracefully with a sword as a song.

Clang!

In the next second, a sharp sword light shot towards Chu Ci.

"Ha ha···"

"Good come!"

Chu Ci let out a long laugh, and the long knife in his hand was drawn out of its sheath instantly.

Ding!

The sword light collided with the blade, and there was a clear and crisp sound.

Cooperating with Gongsun Lvluo's figure like a dragon, he composed a sword dance in the courtyard.

Chapter 198

Ding!

The bright sword intent collided with the fierce sword intent.

The vigor is like an invisible crossbow shooting out in all directions.

A piece of plum blossom fell with the wind, was swept by the energy, and was smashed into pieces in an instant.

Clang!

Chu Ci put the saber back into its sheath, looked at Gongsun Luluo who was sweating a little between his brows, and said, "Miss Gongsun, how is it so far today?"

Gongsun Luluo nodded slightly, and with a flick of her wrist, the soft sword wrapped around her wrist like a spirit snake.

"Young master Chu's saber intent has become more advanced."

Chu Ci chuckled and said, "Miss Gongsun's sword dance is getting more and more intoxicating."

Gongsun Luluo's figure flashed, and she sat on the stone chair.
