Laughing at Chang'an

Chapter 139 Two Bad Embryos

Chang'an in January has always been very lively.

Bright red lanterns were hung all over the street, and there were lively scenes of getting rid of the old and welcoming the new everywhere. Not to mention the Donghuang with the same customs, even businessmen from the South China Sea and the Northland were also infected by the atmosphere and joined in the fun.It's just that January is a quiet way to spend every year in Xilu, and even the only Guangming Pagoda in Chang'an City has to be closed for a whole month, and all Xilu restaurants and businesses are also closed for rest, which seems out of place in this lively atmosphere.

Geng Yan was busy attending various events, and he never touched the ground all day long.Li Shen's affairs are much less, and he has time to go and talk to Feng He with good wine. The latter has dug a hole in that ghostly place in the Northland for more than half a year. After returning, he spends all day in the wine inn area, hugging , so happy.

When Li Shen found him, Feng He was leaning on the soft couch like a god, surrounded by a group of women, knocking on legs, pinching feet, feeding grapes in their arms, what a depraved one.Li Shen threw the wine jar in his hand over, asked Feng He to take it, held it up to his eyes for a moment, and clicked his tongue.

"The tribute wine of the Yan royal family, Master Li's hand is really extraordinary."

He told the women to step back, straightened up and unsealed the wine, washed two glasses and filled them up one by one.Li Shen took off his cloak, walked over and sat down beside the desk, looked Feng He up and down, and said casually: "I haven't studied wine, so I just picked up an altar, if you like it, I have a lot more."

He recently met a lot of guests and received a lot of gifts, the small warehouse in the mansion was almost full.Feng He rolled his eyes, raised his glass, took a sip, and said, "What's the matter? Did you suddenly think of me, brother?" As he spoke, he caught sight of the long knife in Li Shen's waist, frowned, put down his wine glass and reached for the handle , pull out a section.

"This knife...why is it in your hand?" Feng He asked with a frown.

Li Shen smiled, and replied, "The commander-in-chief sent it, is there any problem?"

"No." Feng He put the knife back into its sheath, wiped his hands with the brocade handkerchief that someone left behind on the soft couch, and said with a bow, "This is the most valuable item in the ruins. Suo Wangjia, I will naturally give it up, I never thought that someone would take it back and give it to you."

Li Shen also frowned when he heard this, ten sets of Wangjia are worth billions of Tang coins, the problem is that there is no market for the price.Every set of Wangjia had to be engraved with the source pattern by a master craftsman. For Geng Jun, it meant that Master Zhang Puqiu had to waste at least two months of precious time to complete this transaction.

"I didn't find anything special." He patted the scabbard, and said with a confused face, "I tried it with a piece of tofu two days ago, and guess what? The tofu got stuck on the blade, and I trembled." It fell down after two swipes... This is the first time in my life I have seen such a blunt knife."

Feng He didn't say anything, and he didn't tell Li Shen. He found out that the knife was in the deepest part of the ruins, in a huge palace, and it was nailed to the highest throne. It wasn't someone else who nailed it in, but the owner of the knife pierced himself with it. This is an ominous weapon to kill the master.

When it was pulled out, the whole ruins were shaking, and the knife rang out, causing boundless ghosts to cry. The scene was quite horrifying.

At that time, Feng He glanced at Geng Yan who was standing not far away like a ghost. The expression on the other person's face was terrifyingly calm, but for some reason, he felt that Geng Yan seemed to be smiling, and there was a determined and extremely cold smile hidden in those eyes. meaning.

The compartment door was suddenly knocked lightly, Feng He regained his thoughts of running away, and let someone come in.I saw a young and beautiful woman standing at the door, calmly and decently blessed him and Li Shenfu, and said with a smile: "Master, the time has come."

Li Shen was still wondering what time it was, so he watched Feng He throw a grape and broke the lock on a box in the corner.The beautiful woman went to the box and helped out a young man with a rather familiar face.

——It was Rong Hu, the son of Yang Hsing.

The young man's forehead was covered with sweat, and his hands and feet seemed to be numb. He could only rely on the woman's support to prevent him from falling. He looked at Feng He weakly, his eyes were a little slow, and he didn't respond when he saw Li Shen. He was taken out by that beautiful woman.

"There's something wrong with you." Li Shen and the others went out, and blocked the river without any politeness, "What are you doing in the box?"

Feng He chewed the grapes indifferently, and said with a light smile, "Isn't it the inspiration from your father... Well, if you have something to say, don't draw the knife." Seeing Li Shen holding the knife handle, he straightened his face and explained Said, "He came to me and asked me to teach him how to be an assassin."

"Didn't he leave with Wang Zhen?" Li Shen asked.

"Wang Zhen raised him as a young master. This kid didn't want to, so he ran away from home." Feng He's eyes were somewhat deep, "He is a helpless child who ran back to Chang'an from the Westland alone. No matter what, he is also a big brother." flesh and blood, I can't keep him out..."

Li Shen heard the deep meaning in his words, felt that Rong Hu was too strange, frowned, and said: "Then you don't have to put him in the box."

"No, I made a bet with him." Feng He lazily laughed, "If he can stay within ten meters of me for ten seconds without being noticed by me, then I will take him as a disciple and support him with all my strength." Teach. The time limit is one month, and he has three chances every day, and after three failures, he has to stay in the box for twelve hours... Today is the fourth day."

"Your method is too strict..."

"It's better than being hung up and exposed to the wind and the sun, not to mention that I have arranged for someone to massage him every day, so it won't hurt his body." Feng He squinted his eyes, and he didn't know what to think of, his expression was a little gloomy, "He's not tolerant enough, and he still As an assassin, if he can't even survive this test, then he is not worthy of being the son of the eldest brother."

Li Shen saw that Feng He had made up his mind, so he frowned slowly. He believed that Feng He would naturally have a sense of proportion, but he couldn't help asking, "Why would he want to be an assassin?"

Feng He smiled, the words he said in the Huo Huo Guild Hall were firmly remembered by Rong Hu, that's why he came to him now.But he didn't bother to talk about such complicated origins with Li Shen, and simply said: "He likes it himself, so why do you care so much?"

Li Shen thought about it for a while, took a sip from his wine glass, and then simply opened it.After chatting about this, the two of them had nothing to say for a while, Feng He felt the pain of eating the grapes with their skins on, and the Mo Xihua in his sleeve became a peeling tool, and the knife as thin as a cicada's wing was dexterous in his fingers Flying, looking exquisite, but I don't know how many lives have been involved.

After eating a few peeled and clean grapes, Feng He stopped, raised his head, and asked Li Shen——

"After I came back, I heard that you and Geng Yan...are on good terms?"

This topic is unavoidable, Li Shen came to Feng He with the intention of finding someone to confide in his heart.Apart from Feng He, he didn't know who else he could talk to... He nodded and hummed right away.

Feng He silently plunged the knife in his sleeve into the bunch of grapes, but the knife was too sharp, as soon as he let go, the grape stalks were chopped and smashed into the plate.

Feng He didn't care about it, he just stared at Li Shen and asked, "Are you just kidding, or are you serious?"

"If I want to play, I won't play with him." Li Shen smiled wryly, "I haven't thought about what to do, but I do have that kind of thought for him, and I can't lie to myself."

Feng He repeated: "That kind of thought?"

Li Shen was a little embarrassed, rubbed his fingertips on the wine glass, hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "I want to hug him."

Fortunately, Feng He didn't drink alcohol, otherwise he would have sprayed people in the face. Even so, he was choked for a long time and couldn't speak.Who is Geng Yan, the legendary figure who led the Geng Army with one hand, and now he is the acting president, and he is the No. If you want to hug someone... why don't you just go to heaven.

After struggling in his heart for a long time, he could only slowly squeeze out four words: "My condolences..."

Li Shen looked at him quietly with dark and bright eyes, did not speak, just looked at him, faintly, faintly...

The fine hairs on the back of Feng He's neck were almost visible, and he asked vigilantly, "What are you looking at me for?"

"You have rich experience, help me think of a way." Li Shen's tone seemed to be talking about what to eat for dinner, and it was natural for him to be calm, "How should I tell him to lie down and give me a hug."

Feng He refused without hesitation: "I don't have the ability."

Li Shen frowned and called brother.

Feng He stopped talking.

"It's either I hug him or he hugs me, anyway, one of us will suffer." Li Shen was talking nonsense, but his expression was serious as if he was discussing strategy, "If you don't help me, can you bear to watch my ass blossom? "

groove!Feng He slapped the table angrily, causing the cups and saucers to jump, and there was a gleam of determination in his eyes.

He showed a warm and kind smile to Li Shen.

"My brother, I have no reason not to help."

………………

Geng Yan is very busy these days, and Li Shen is avoiding him on purpose, but he is not in a hurry - he has been waiting for so many years, why can't he wait for these few days?

To be honest, until now, he still can't believe it.

Li Shen's reaction was too...to his surprise.

The worst nausea and disgust did not appear, and the expected alienation and indifference did not appear. Geng Yan had already made a plan to tie people by his side even if it was forced, but unexpectedly everything went smoothly beyond imagination. The confession that he hesitated to make, actually got Li Shen's response... It felt like a dream.

So Geng Yan was in a good mood, as for Li Shen avoiding him?Hehe, he watched the person roll to the living room in despair that night with his own eyes, what else did he not understand?It's nothing more than fear of hurting the butt.

Well, Geng Yan thought, he can always solve it.

So that night he went back to the guild hall, and as soon as he entered the office, he saw Li Shen eating happily with a bowl of noodles. He was pleasantly surprised but also a little surprised.

But of course it doesn't show on his face.

"coming?"

"Ah."

"It's so late to eat?"

"I want to wait for you to come back to eat together. If I wait too long, I can eat first if I can't wait."

Geng Yan hung his coat on the hanger, and said, "Next time you come, give me a call." Seeing that Li Shen nodded in response, he asked again, "Why did you suddenly remember this?"

"Leg hurts." Li Shen put down his chopsticks and smiled at him.

"miss you."
