Who is not a monk

The white cat glanced at him, then lowered its head and continued to eat.

Chen Shu glanced at Gu Xiuqun, but there was no movement, so he continued to pick up the buns and ate them slowly.

ten minutes later.

Chen Shu hugged Taozi and walked into the small courtyard of the deputy suzerain.

The call of the merle became clear.

On the stone table, two figures sat facing each other, each brewing a pot of tea. The table was carved with a checkerboard grid, dotted with black and white pieces.

Chen Shu was a little surprised, but walked in anyway: "Sovereign, deputy suzerain, happy new year."

"Happy New Year."

"Happy, happy, come here."

Chen Shu put down the peach and let it run around in the yard, then walked over obediently and aimed at the suzerain.

The usual suzerain is very homely.

At this time, the deputy suzerain tilted his head and asked:

"Will it come down?"

"I can only play chess."

"How did you play chess?"

"It's not a good game." Chen Shu paused, "I haven't won much against the people around me."

"That's really not a good game." The deputy suzerain played against his master and said to him at the same time, "This round will be over soon."

"it is good."

Chen Shu didn't leave either, but sat down and watched.

Go is an intellectual game. People who play well must have high intelligence, and those who play badly are not necessarily bad. It still depends on proficiency.

Judging by the expression, the deputy suzerain had the upper hand.

The two of them drank tea, and fell a few times in between.

While chatting all the time.

I heard from them that the transmission from Puluo was urgent last night, and His Majesty summoned the Sword King to Beijing overnight.

Jian Guang traveled thousands of kilometers and arrived in the capital in just over a quarter of an hour.

The abduction of the direct inheritor of the royal family was a major event in ancient times, and it is not an exaggeration to have a large army suppressing the situation.

It is also a big deal now.

It's just that the times are different after all. From a procedural point of view, the royal family is no longer able to mobilize troops.It's not that the army can't rescue the leader of the group, it has to follow the formal procedures.And this is more complicated than the disappearance of ordinary officers. If ordinary officers are replaced, the Yiguo army can dispatch powerful forces to rescue them just for propaganda purposes. I don't want the public to think that the children of the royal family are still above the common people.

Now the royal family is in a weak period again.

In the past, there were two ninth ranks in the imperial family, but now there is only one left, and he was injured a year ago. The new emperor only has eight ranks, and his foundation is very different from that of the previous emperor. The only one who can be transferred at will is the sword king.

The royal family has been loyal to the royal family for generations.

The deputy suzerain picked up the chess pieces on the table, and glanced at Chen Shu from the corner of his eye: "Do you know that kid?"

"Very familiar."

Chen Shu was very grateful to the deputy suzerain. This was actually an opportunity for him to interject and ask him what he cared about, but he didn't ask Cao Ci the sensitive question of why he kidnapped the group leader. It was even useless. In a questioning tone, after a pause, he said almost with emotion: "I don't know if my friend can come back safely after suffering such a catastrophe..."

The deputy suzerain couldn't help laughing.

Chen Shu knew what he was laughing at, he was laughing at himself for being too restrained, but Chen Shu just didn't understand.

The suzerain held the chess piece, frowned and thought, looked up at him, and comforted him: "Don't worry, although Cao Ci has come this far, but he and the late emperor are old acquaintances after all, it's better to kill the first and second generation for no reason. Not to come out, besides, killing the direct heir to the throne has already touched the bottom line, he is not so stupid."

"Thank you Sect Master."

Chen Shu was slightly relieved.

And looking at the attitudes of the two big shots, he felt neither surprised nor worried.

"Haven't figured it out yet, Master?"

"Ugh……"

The Sovereign messed up the chessboard, annoyed and conceded defeat.

The deputy suzerain smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pointed, all the chess pieces flew up and fell back into their respective chess cups, and said to the suzerain: "Master, please go back, I have to exchange spiritual experience with this kid, and we will fight again later."

"can."

The suzerain got up and left quietly.

Chen Shu thought it was very interesting for them to get along.

Perhaps it is because the sense of distance between them has been erased by two or three hundred years. They are no longer like masters and apprentices when they get along in private, but more like peers.It is true, not to mention two or three hundred-year-old masters and apprentices, even a hundred-year-old and 300-year-old father and son can often talk on an equal footing.

It's nothing more than two old people.

While putting away the teacup, the deputy suzerain said to Chen Shu: "He has a very straight personality, I taught him how to play chess, and I always guess his mind.

"Don't be so particular when you talk to him. He studies spells all day long. He has no airs, and he doesn't like twists and turns... Besides, he doesn't have many years to live. You are young, afraid What does he do?"

The first half of the sentence is okay, but the second half is true so Chen Shu doesn't know how to answer it.

"Last night, I connected Linghai to the outside world, but it only lasted for two seconds, and the connection was very unstable. I couldn't reveal the spiritual power, and couldn't manifest the appearance of the spirit body. And just that time, It will never be successful after that.”

"No hurry, New Year's Eve, come, I'll teach you how to play chess."

The deputy suzerain set up the chess cup again.

Chen Shu sat down opposite.

"Wang~"

Taozi returned to his feet at some point.

The deputy suzerain lowered his head and took a look: "Is this raised by you?"

"almost."

"Civet?"

"How did you get it?"

"The spiritual power on it is very special, like a demon from Dongzhou." The deputy suzerain paused, lowered his head and looked at Taozi with soft eyes, "I also raised a civet before, and their eyes and behaviors are similar to those of normal cats. There is a big difference, and people who have raised them can see it at a glance."

"What about the civet?"

"Transformed, stayed on this mountain for too long, and naturally transformed." The deputy suzerain said, "Then he was sent to Dongzhou."

"Send away?"

Chen Shu was a little surprised.

Although Dongzhou has extradition treaties with other countries, it is still very easy to keep a little demon as the deputy suzerain.

Even in terms of formal procedures, it is very easy. You only need to send it to Dongzhou to obtain legal status, and then let it go abroad to study abroad. As long as it is voluntary, the procedures are easy.After all, the demon people of Dongzhou rarely go abroad, and it is not forbidden to go abroad.

The deputy suzerain saw his doubts and smiled: "This is the same as children. When they grow up, some want to stay with their parents, so they stay, and some want to have their own world, so let them go out and wander."

"I see."

"Wang~"

Tao Zi jumped onto Chen Shu's leg, stepped on his leg with his back foot, and grabbed the stone table with his two front paws, aiming at the chessboard with round eyes.

"This meow is very interesting."

"Many cats bark like that." Chen Shu smiled and rubbed Taozi's head.

"My old cat didn't meow either."

"What's the name?"

"Ahhh."

"It's also called that." Chen Shu looked down at Taozi, "Come on, ah."

"Ah~"

"Come again, meh."

"Bah!"

The deputy suzerain watched from the side, showing a smile, and waited until Chen Shu finished teasing the cat, then he pointed to the chessboard and said to him: "Look, nineteen horizontal lines and nineteen vertical lines form an intersection of 360, which is On the chessboard of Go, black and white play alternately..."

One person and one cat listened carefully.

One understands quickly, and the other pretends to understand quickly.

……

night.

After taking a shower, Chen Shu lay on the bed, hugged Taozi with his left hand, and opened the Guxiu group with his right hand.

As expected, everyone had already discussed the news of the disappearance of the group leader during the day. Everyone was very worried, but they really couldn't help.The gap between the top ninth level and the fifth or sixth level is as big as that between humans and aphids. In the end, it was Zhang Yogurt who asked the sword master to reassure everyone.

It can also be seen from this that the styles of the various sects are different.

The relationship between Zhang Yogurt and the sword master is like that of an unscrupulous grandfather and spoiled granddaughter, while the master of Lingzong is more like the president of a university, or the chairman of a giant company.As for Zhongmiaozhimen, the head of Taoism is more like the traditional ruler of the sect who has to look up in awe. The Bodhisattva Yingjie of Buddhism has added a touch of faith and has already stood on the edge of the altar , the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha couldn't even see him again.

Hope the boss is safe and sound.

I hope the country will wipe out Cao Ci as soon as possible.

Chen Shu turned off the phone, lay down, and turned to Tao Zi: "Say good night to me."

"Wang!"

"So straightforward? Are you scolding me?"

"Wang~"

"Be careful I sold you."

"What~"

"Ah……"

Chen Shu showed a smile.

This little thing is also interesting--

Usually when Qingqing is around, it dislikes him in every possible way, and is unwilling to stay by his side for a moment, but when Qingqing is not around, it will be very clingy to Chen Shu.Even Chen Shu's priority is still ahead of the little girl, only when he and Qingqing are away, it will run to find the little girl.

"Are you following me every day, bearing the burden of humiliation, making clever speeches, lest I lose you, just to go back and see Qingqing?"

"Wang?"

"Okay, you're not, good night."

"Ann~"

Chen Shu turned off the light, and Tao Zi closed her eyes beside him.

When there was a cute fluffy thing who trusted him completely beside him, Chen Shu felt inexplicably relieved, not even many distracting thoughts popped up, and he quickly sank into it without thinking too much about those troublesome things. deep sleep.

……

Continuous sunny days down the mountain.

Rapeseed flowers are turning yellow day by day, but they are still almost meaningless.

Until two days of overcast rain, the earth was moistened, and when the sun came out again, it seemed that in just one day, the blooming rapeseed blossoms were connected into pieces.

Chen Shu brought Qingqing, Xiaoxiao and Chen Banxia over here, and it was like traveling during the winter vacation.

As the weather was getting warmer, Qingqing wore a light pink shirt on the day I came here. It was a very gentle and intellectual color. It seemed that I just bought it. I had never seen her wear it before. It was paired with simple jeans. The spring light is brighter again.

Tao Zi screamed and ran towards her.

Qingqing squatted down, picked it up, and with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she turned her head and asked Chen Shu with a smile: "Are you treating it badly?"

Chen Shu looked at her dully.

Tao Zi also seemed to have noticed something was wrong, her expression froze suddenly, and she looked at her master in a daze.

At this time, Ning Qing's whole body was full of tenderness and sweetness, the original coldness seemed to melt away with this spring, and the infinite tenderness under the ice and snow was all hidden between her slightly happy eyebrows and eyes.
