As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 283 Something happened to Shen Qingshuang

Chen Luo didn't know that there was someone in the Shangqing Taoist Temple who couldn't find him.

He and Xiaobai have already entered Liaocheng.

Liaocheng is not big. Compared with Yucheng, Liaocheng is more like a county town, but it is not a county town.

By definition, it is also a real big city.

As for why it seems a little small...

Perhaps this is because Jiangzhou itself is not big, so even the cities within Jiangzhou seem a bit small, right?
"Chen Luo, let's find a place to eat? I'm hungry."

Xiaobai held a chicken leg in his hand.

But he still couldn't help but hold his stomach.

Strange to say...

The main body is obviously so fat, but this transformed figure is actually very good.

That's fine.

Such a small belly can also eat a lot...

Fortunately, Chen Luo has money.

When fellow Taoist Bailong left in the past, he left another mountain of silver to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo also resisted being taken care of by fellow Taoist Bailong.

She is different from Hongxiu.

It is only natural for Hongxiu to give herself money.

After all, his perfect body was tainted by her.

Later, he defiled himself again and again, so naturally he needed to give himself some money to buy some supplements.

But Fellow Daoist Bailong himself and her finally became somewhat innocent.

Treating herself like this made her feel like a waste.

Like those legendary faces, pink and tender young men are generally unbearable.

Until Chen Luo saw those faces and that little boy, Chen Luo felt that there was still a difference between himself and them.

I am much more handsome.

More manly too.

Even though everyone in the world calls him father-in-law, and he has been a eunuch for hundreds of years, compared with them, they are still more girly.

So think about it.

It seems a bit silly not to have money.

This will save you from the painful suffering.

So, this way, the little fox would not starve to death.

"I'm hungry..."

Chen Luo touched his belly.

He's hungry too...

Although he has been able to live without grains for a long time after joining Foundation Establishment, most of them, whether Chen Luo or some monks, do not have the habit of living without grains except when practicing in seclusion.

Taste the grains of the world,

Drink the sweetness of the world.

I heard that the world is full of five colors.

These are much more interesting than inedia...

So these three meals day and night are naturally the same as ordinary people.

Even for some monks, it is impossible to tell at a glance whether they are monks or ordinary people unless they deliberately check.

Now after hearing what Xiaobai said, Chen Luo also had an appetite.

Now that you are in Liaocheng, you have to be a little particular about what you eat.

The territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty was vast.

Hundreds of years ago, it was the Seven Kingdoms...

Although the world is unified, the books have the same text, the cars have the same track, and the degree of unity is measured, there are always differences in some cultural customs.

This is the case with delicious food everywhere.

"A long time ago, I passed by here once, and I heard that there is a kind of cake here, called shortbread, which is extremely delicious. It is a delicacy unique to the old country of Zhao, and Liaocheng happens to be the origin of this shortbread.

But that was a long time ago, and that place is probably gone long ago. We can go ask and see where we can eat shortbread. "

So, I found a commoner.

One question,

The people then laughed and said, "Go to the back streets and alleys. There is an old man in the back streets and alleys, surnamed Wang. Old Wang's shortbread is the best in Liaocheng... But..."

"But how?"

"Something seems to have happened to Lao Wang recently. It's hard to say whether I can buy it."

"Something happened?"

"what's up?"

"I don't know, he's just in a bad mood anyway. Whoever goes to buy shortbread these days rarely gets it. Even if he does, he has to queue up. Sometimes he can buy it in an hour, and some It’s just one day…”

Chen Luo nodded and thanked his father-in-law for his advice.

"Shall we go to the back alleys?"

The little fox asked...

Chen Luo shook his head: "No, just find a place that has shortbread and try it. Don't go to that place."

bad mood.

in trouble.

It also depends on your face...

That's all.

Still have to line up.

Even if there was only one of the options, Chen Luo would be able to accept it.

But now that there are so many options, Chen Luo naturally won't be willing to go...

Eating is indeed the key.

But if you have wronged yourself, then there is no need.

But there are some things that even if you try to avoid them, you won't be able to avoid them.

Chen Luo didn't go to the back streets.

I found a place and ate some food. I also ate those shortbread cookies, so I wasn’t too disappointed.

But it was at dusk that day.

People from the Liaocheng Yamen rushed into Chen Luo's courtyard...

This yard was just purchased.

I wanted to stay here for a few days, but as soon as I moved in, someone from the yamen broke in.

When this group of government officials came in, Chen Luo was farming in the yard.

There is a piece of land in the courtyard.

Pretty good.

It is a good place to grow vegetables.

Chen Luo was a little busy a few days ago, so he couldn't grow this vegetable. But now that he saw this place, he felt that it was time to grow some vegetables for himself.

Roll up your trouser legs.

Take a hoe.

Xiaobai followed behind Chen Luo, holding a handful of grass in one hand.

Seeing a group of government officials coming in, both of them were a little confused.

"How many are these?"

At dusk and sunset, instead of going back to eat, I came here...

These government officials are very idle!
Huang Hemin did not answer Chen Luo, but just waved his hand, and the government officials behind him came up with knives and controlled Chen Luo and Xiaobai...

When had Xiaobai ever been bullied like this?

She was about to take action immediately, but Chen Luo stopped her.

So I endured it.

"Go inside and have a look!"

Huang Hemin said to the other government officials behind him. They went in to check, and soon there was a sound.

"Boss, the murder weapon was found!"

Chen Luo:? ? ?
The sound was quite loud, and Chen Luo heard it immediately.

Some didn't respond.

murder weapon?

What weapon?
He soon knew...

It was a knife.

There was blood on the knife.

Digged out from under the backyard window,

It still has dirt on it.

"This afternoon, all seven members of Old Man Wang's family in the back alley were killed... Someone saw the murderer entering this yard... The Yamen did some investigation. You two just entered Liaocheng today, and you also inquired about Old Man Wang's family. Location.

now what……

The murder weapon was found in your yard. You two...do you have anything to say? ? ? "

Chen Luo: ...

silence.

Shaking his head.

"There seems to be nothing left to say."

Nothing to say!

It's too much of a coincidence.

I just inquired about Old Man Wang's back alley... I still don't want to go here because it's too troublesome, and now I bought a yard by chance, where the murderer is hiding.

Forget it!

There is also a murder weapon hidden in this yard...

What else can I say?
Let alone them, even he felt that he was suspicious.

but……

"If I say that this is all a coincidence, will the adults believe it?"

Huang Hemin sneered...

no response.

……

Chen Luo was imprisoned again.

He was caught by a group of people and roughly thrown into Liaocheng death row.

Chen Luo was a little unhappy.

These people are too rude.

"Sir, I am a man in the world, and I have human rights, right? Look, this knife is placed on my neck, and there are scars on it!"

Chen Luo said.

Xiaobai also stretched his neck.

You can vaguely see a red knife mark on it.

"That's right, I'm still a child!"

Xiaobai pointed at the knife marks on his neck and tried his best to express his dissatisfaction.

However, what he got in exchange was a bang.

The cell door was closed.

Probably because they were afraid that Chen Luo and the others would escape from prison, they used several thick iron chains to reinforce them several times before leaving.

"Chen Luo, what are they doing?"

Xiaobai asked Chen Luo.

Chen Luo thought for a while.

"Maybe you are afraid that someone will disturb us?"

"Then they are really nice!"

"Okay."

The conversation between the two was not quiet.

In the cell next to him, a bearded man was lying on the railing. Hearing what these two people said, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Let me ask, are you two really stupid, or are you pretending to be stupid? Are you still afraid of disturbing you? Are you sure they are not afraid that you will escape?"

The bearded man said: "But, I would say that they are too worried... Now that they are on death row, are they still worried about escaping? Can they escape? It doesn't matter whether it's the end of the world, even that expert will die!"

Chen Luo just smiled slightly.

It's not easy to talk.

Xiaobai doesn't understand.

"Chen Luo, what does death row mean?"

"The meaning of death row is that once you enter, you are almost half dead."

"Why half?"

"Because the remaining half is just time to wait. According to the laws of Dazhou, criminals on death row can only be executed after the autumn."

"Qiu Hou asked Zhan? What do you mean?"

Chen Luo thought for a moment and explained:

"The Book of Rites·Yue Ling" records: "The cool breeze comes, the white dew falls, the cicadas chirp, and the eagle is used to sacrifice the bird, and it is used to kill." "

During the period of Emperor Jianwu, Dong Zhongren raised this meaning to a theoretical level in "Spring and Autumn Fanlu".

which is:
"The king is in harmony with the sky, which is called his way. Heaven has four seasons, and the king has four political affairs. The four political affairs are like the four seasons, and they are the same.

It is the same thing between heaven and man.

Celebration is spring, reward is summer, punishment is autumn, and punishment is winter. "

He believed that celebration, reward, punishment and punishment were the four governing behaviors of the emperor, which should be adapted to the changes of the four seasons.Dong Zhong believed that rewards should be given in spring and summer, and punishments should be carried out in autumn and winter.

Later, Emperor Jianwu agreed with this statement, which is the origin of "Qiu Hou Wen Zhan". "

Xiaobai suddenly realized.

"Then you can only behead in winter. Then there are still a few months until winter. Do we have to live here for a long time?"

"That's it!"

Chen Luo sighed...

Is this your third time in jail?
Thinking about it, I still miss it very much.

But this is my first time on death row.

The jails I used to sit in were boring and boring sky jails with no end in sight...

Now it is the first time that I can know the date of my death.

So when I thought about it, I felt that this experience was particularly different.

[You have a feeling in death row, and you actually feel that this death row is also a good place.

Immortal experience points are increased.

+1000!

PS: Everything in this world should be experienced. Death is actually not bad, especially if you know the date of death, you can be more in awe of life! 】

The only bad thing is that the environment is a little worse.

So I took out the broom from the storage bag.

Get one yourself.

Xiaobai.

One large and one small began to clean the cell.

Ignoring the bearded man next door with his mouth wide open...

At first, he mocked Chen Luo and the others for being stupid, but now he felt that the scene in front of him was too outrageous.

Looking at the cell that was clean in just a short time.

Then I watched one of them setting up a lounge chair, the other taking out the tea set and eating...

After a while, he took out the quilt.

lie there.

Humming.

I can’t describe the two people who are so leisurely...

It dawned on him.

He is an expert!
But it's a pity...

Experts are useless too.

Once on death row, no one can escape Qiu Houwenzhan.

Because the moment they entered the cell, their list entered the life and death spectrum of Jin Yiwei...

No one can escape death if they violate the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Even if you are an expert, this is the case!

……

When Huang Hemin came, he saw Chen Luo and the little girl eating chicken drumsticks inside.

Drink the drink.

Couldn't help but step back.

After looking around, I suspected that I had seen it wrong.

Then it was furious.

They took everything away...even Chen Luo's green gourd.

Chen Luo didn't stop it either.

The man who just smiled let him take him away.

After they leave...

From the storage bag, I took out another set.

He was taken away again the next day.

On the third day...

Chen Luo is still leisurely.

This time when Huang Hemin came, he didn't take anything with him.

Just looking at Chen Luo.

Then he turned around and left...

Chen Luo didn't say anything, just smiled... turned over and continued to sleep.

Xiaobai yawned.

"Chen Luo, I'm so bored!"

It was midnight outside.

"Go and play by yourself!"

then……

Xiaobai didn't see any action, and went straight out through the wall. When he went out, he saw some government officials, greeted them with a smile, and walked past them openly.

The faces of a group of government officials turned slightly dark.

I want to talk, but I don’t know what to say.

……

Time flies.

A month passed quietly.

The bearded man next door was beheaded yesterday...

He was dragged out.

I cried badly.

Said he didn’t want to die…

So he was slapped hard several times by the government servants, and his hands and feet were broken.

The little fox was a little frightened.

Because of fear, I ate three more bowls of rice that day.

After he was beheaded, the little fox ran to live next door and opened up the two cells.

There was a lot of movement.

But strangely enough, these government officials seemed to be deaf and pretended not to hear.

Even when he saw the little fox running next door, he turned a blind eye.

However, it was also the second night after Xiaobai broke into the cell.

There is fog in the cell!

In the mist, a man appeared.

The man holds a sword...

Standing in front of Chen Luo.

"I've seen my father-in-law."

he said.

Eyes calm.

Lonely.

unruly.

It seemed that in his eyes, everything in this world could not be tolerated, and everything in this world could not be looked down upon.

"I have met the Venerable Donglai."

Chen Luo: "I should have asked the venerable to sit down, but the environment in this cell is not good, so I have to ask the venerable to be a little more aggrieved!"

After saying this.

Chen Luo tightened the quilt around him.

Today is August [-]th...

Considering that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather will naturally become cooler in the evening.

He is an old man over 400 years old. It is normal for him to be afraid of the cold. As for being unable to get up to greet him, it is also because of inconvenience in his legs and feet...

Come to think of it, Venerable Donglai understands this even more.

"It's okay!"

Ling Donglai said calmly: "There is just something that I have to trouble my father-in-law."

Chen Luo smiled slightly:
"It's not easy for Venerable Donglai to trouble our family, isn't it? Otherwise, there would be no need for so many people to die, and our family would have to live here in Liaocheng for a while.

Even this method is too crude and really unnecessary. "

First, kill the old man of the Wang family.

Later, he framed himself.

Finally, he was sent to death row...

It’s too much trouble!
"Actually, you can just talk to our family directly. Our family won't fight or rob us. Why should the Venerable Donglai be afraid of anything?"

"Father-in-law, if you don't want to fight for it, don't you want to rob it?"

Ling Donglai smiled coldly.

"Everyone in the world thinks so, but if they see the skeletons and bones under the mountains of peach blossoms, I wonder if they will think so again?"

Chen Luo: ...

My head hurts a little.

"We don't know what Venerable Donglai said..."

"is it?"

"It's boring for Venerable Donglai to be like this." Chen Luo's head hurt even more: "Where did you dig the peach tree?"

Chen Luo has planted peach trees in many places...

Kyoto.

Duanjian Valley.

Yuzhou City.

and many more……

In most cities, there are shadows of peach trees.

Where the tree was dug was quite important to Chen Luo.

"There are also ones in Kyoto, and there are also ones in Duanjian Valley. Of course... the main ones are in Junzhou City..."

Chen Luo was stunned.

So you understand.

"It's just that our family still doesn't understand why Venerable Donglai suddenly became interested in our family."

He has always been low-key.

Could it be because of what happened in Yunshan?

Should not be.

"Dragon Lock Tower..."

He said: "I heard that my father-in-law used to live in Junzhou City... The Dragon Locking Tower of the Guanjian Sect in Junzhou City is the tower next to the Linjiang River. I think my father-in-law may have an impression..."

Chen Luo sighed.

Now I understand everything.

This is the formation I set up above, and it’s known!
Thinking about it this way, you can understand why Dong Lai was so indifferent to him when he first met him!

"It took me a hundred years, and hundreds of years of knowledge from the Sword Viewing Sect, to finally break through that formation... But the scene I saw after I entered is something I will never forget...

Fortunately, I met my father-in-law these days, so I had this opportunity. I asked my father-in-law to stay in Liaocheng and wait for today's meeting. "

Chen Luo: ...

Although I have never seen that scene in place.

But it’s exciting to think about.

"What else did you do?"

"I invited a person to join the Sword Watching Sect as a guest..."

"Who?"

"My father-in-law from the Xianxia Sect is an old friend."

"Shen Qingshuang?"

Chen Luo of Xianxia Sect has an old friend...

But there is only one person worth caring about.

"You went to the Xianxia Sect to invite someone? Did the Xianxia Sect let you go so easily?"

"Not at all."

Ling Donglai said: "I said that I was very lucky... not only did I meet my father-in-law, but not long after I landed in Yunshan, I also met Elder Shen in Yucheng, so I had to bring him back to the Guanjian Sect."

"How would you like?"

Ling Donglai said calmly:

"My father-in-law is traveling around the world. If nothing happens, he will go to the Sword Watching Sect...

I am waiting at the door for my father-in-law to come! "

he said...

A gust of wind blew around...

His figure collapsed.

The fog in the cell cleared.

on the recliner.

Chen Luo slowly opened his eyes...

It's different from the old days.

At this moment, there was a bit more chill in Chen Luo's eyes.
