[Gu Jian III] The Days I Worked in Xuanyuan Hill

Xuanyuanqiu's spring air was so dry that it made his throat a little harsh.

Especially for a person like me who has just returned from the northern part of the country without maintenance, in this era when there is no Vaseline, my face that has just turned red from the plateau in the northern part of the country encounters the warm and dry spring breeze of the Central Plains for the first time. Just like sandpaper on a peeling white plaster wall, a layer of powder can fall off with a breath.

I jumped off the back of the mount and stroked my hair that was blown into a big back, only to feel that even the hairline moved back half an inch.I solemnly gave feedback to the soldiers behind me about this issue that might affect Xuanyuanqiu's overall mental outlook, and turned my head to meet a pair of eyes full of resentment.

My movements froze for a moment, and I greeted him a little unnaturally: "Zhao Ye... Long time no see, glad to see you."

He elongated his voice strangely: "Yo - you still know how to come back?"

"...Don't talk like that, it sounds like a bitter woman..."

"Yes." He was still in a strange mood, "I don't know who came back last time and lay down for a month before surviving and then promised not to go out for more than half a year. This time it was a few months late, and how far he went ah?"

I took half a step back, and under the pressure of the huge resentful woman in front of me, I said with difficulty: "It's like this, listen to me to explain..."

He folded his arms and waited for me coldly: "Say it."

"...Cuckoo?"

He picked up the brush next to the horse to brush the hair and slapped it on my head: "I will let you dove!!! Idiot, do you know who you are now?! Have you considered the feelings of the brothers in the gluttonous department? You know How long did those bastards in Pibu laugh at us after they knew we were left behind again?! Even Rong Dong is more reliable than you, Gu Changning!!!"

"Don't, don't slap your face... oh! Well, I did go out this time without saying hello, but I didn't suddenly hear that there are demons in the north, I'm afraid you will be in danger... and there must always be someone in the gluttonous department Xuanyuanqiu, if something happens to Ji Xuanyuan, I can't make Ji Xuanyuan useless... Oh, I was wrong, I told you not to slap your face!"

Half an hour later, I walked into the tribe with a few marks of horse brush on my face after being beaten to the ground.

"Xuanyuanqiu seems to be getting bigger." I looked around and looked at the increasingly bustling crowd. I counted the days, and it seems that these days are just the Flower Food Festival. Soldiers and tourists from various tribes come to Xuanyuanqiu Often, it is much grander than the Flower Food Festival in the year I left.

"That's because you have been away for nine months and there is no news. At that time, the pregnant Xiling warrior had already returned to the battlefield for a month." Zhao Ye replied with a strange expression.

I changed the subject with a guilty conscience: "Is there nothing wrong with the Taotie Department during my absence?"

Zhao Ye was silent for a while, and then said as if mocking himself: "No, what can happen? Since you strongly demanded to take over the Taotie Department five years ago, and beat all those who refused to accept it to lie on the bed for half a month, Who else dares to make such a fuss?"

Five years ago, Jinyun disappeared, and the warriors of the Taotie tribe were leaderless.At that time, I was still young and frivolous, and I jumped out and said that I would take the position of squad leader temporarily. At that time, it was almost a thorn in my side.The leader of the Taotie Department is the invincible Master Jinyun. I am just a war slave who was picked up from the outside. Naturally, many people disagree.But after being beaten to the ground one by one by me, I could only swallow my anger for the time being.

After all, I was young at the time. If it were me now, I would definitely not beat you up on the spot. How easy it was to beat them up one by one in private, so why bother to confront them...

I said "oh", and didn't continue to follow Zhao Ye's words.

Ji Xuanyuan's office has not changed.It’s just that compared with the thatched hut where I first came to bear, it has expanded dozens of times in recent years.There are stretches of houses here and there. Although they are all single-storey bungalows, the expansions over the years have given it a somewhat majestic appearance.

After I reported the business trip to Ji Xuanyuan and was about to retreat as usual, he suddenly stopped me.

"You are hurt?"

I subconsciously shrank my shoulders: "No...uh, it's just a small injury, it's fine."

"Don't try to be brave. The place you went to this time is quite dangerous, and you encountered the Great Heavenly Demon again. It is not easy to get out of your body. I will ask Leizu to find someone to look at the wound for you. You can rest for a few days."

I quickly waved my hand: "It's okay, I'm not so coquettish. Then I'll go first, after leaving for so long, I still need me for the affairs of the Taotie Department..."

He didn't follow my excuses and let me go.Ji Xuanyuan tapped the table lightly with one hand, his long and narrow eyes stared at me quietly, I froze immediately, murmured for a while, and finally closed my mouth.

"Have you been in charge of the Taotie Department for five years?"

"En." I responded, and then emphasized, "It's not taking over, it's interim. When Jinyun comes back, I still have to hand it over to him."

Ji Xuanyuan smiled, and there were fine lines at the corners of his eyes: "You've done a good job, do you intend to continue?"

I looked at him in surprise: "Why do you continue to do it? Is it because they make trouble every day? Or because they have smelly feet and don't take a bath?"

The smile on Ji Xuanyuan's face obviously stagnated for a moment.

I waved my hand: "Don't try to push these troublesome guys to me. When Jinyun comes back, this burden will still be his."

"It's been five years, have you ever thought that maybe he..."

"No." I interrupted his words, and answered very firmly, while looking at him with a look of disdain like a cat looking at a dog.

I knew what he was going to ask before he finished speaking, Jinyun won't come back?impossible!Heh, even though I didn't finish playing the plot of Gu Jian San back then, considering Jin Yun's good looks, it is absolutely impossible for him to receive such an inexplicable lunch box!Domestic game manufacturers will definitely find a way to keep him alive and torture him to death, otherwise, he will be sorry for his modeling!

I rely on my self-confidence in the honey juice of domestic spicy chicken games to support my strong heart, and bravely look at my ancestors thousands of years ago.

He was defeated.

Satisfied, I looked back and asked, "By the way, is Wu Yan in Xuanyuanqiu? It's been a long time since I saw him. I still have something to ask him."

"He arrived three days ago. He should be waiting for you now." Ji Xuanyuan picked up the things on the table next to him, "Help me and bring this to him together."

I took the courier from my ancestors, went out and turned left to find Wu Yan.

After not coming back for nine months, Xuanyuan Qiuli had many new faces.When I found Wu Zhi, he was surrounded by several people wearing Xiling's characteristic clothes.Hearing my footsteps, Wu Yan stopped talking, turned his head, and slightly raised his eyebrows.

"Let's go here." I heard him say to a few people around him, "Go to Lei Zu's place, and let her handle the rest of the matter."

"But, Master Wu Yan, we still have some..."

"I said, stop here."

The two people who were familiar with me dragged away the obviously unwilling person, and I could still see the question marks on the head of this strange kid.To be honest, I have no fewer question marks than him.

"They came to you with something important, right? Why did you send them away?" I asked.

Wu Yan said briefly: "It's not a big deal. How long have you been back?"

"Just came out of Ji Xuanyuan." I threw the package in my hand, "here, he asked me to bring it to you."

Wu Hao didn't even look at the thing, and put it aside casually.He looked up at me: "You should have brought something else?"

I laughed twice, and took out the box that I had been hiding on my body all this time, not daring to throw it away this time.Carefully holding it in front of Wu Yan.

Almost the moment he took the box, Wu Yan frowned.He opened it for one look, then snapped it shut again.When he spoke again, his tone was a little cold.

"The heart and magic core of the Great Heavenly Demon. How did you get it?"

Even if I didn't open my eyes, I could still feel the sharp knife-like gaze - he seems to be called spiritual vision - precisely pacing around my injured shoulder and back.I flinched with guilt: "Actually, I was lucky this time, and I happened to meet a big wounded demon... Oh, don't care about these details, just say how much monster power this thing can give the dog? I went to see it last time. Its horns are almost fully grown, it should be almost an adult, right?"

I looked at him expectantly, like an old farmer looking at Yuan Longping, who announced the success of the hybrid rice.

"I don't know." He replied very coldly, sweeping my booty aside, looking like he was angry again.As for why, this time the reason may be because I was panting too loudly and robbed him of air?

Forget it, forgive him, who is not a little public opinion.

Over the years, I have gotten used to Wu Zhi's moodiness.Sighing, I skillfully took out the cat teasing stick I specially brought for him...ah no, it's the refining material of Moyu, and started coaxing Wu Yan.
