Strange Tale of Qingluan

A Lintian shook his head, not obeying his intention at all, and said with his mouth curled up, "No, none of them are my father, I only have one father, I want to accompany my father, where is my father going, ah Wherever Lin is going, they are inseparable."

Su Zhongming tried to coax A Lin Tianduo again and again, but he couldn't coax A Lin Tianduo. When he was helpless, the girl Midoya who came in with A Lin Tianduo opened her mouth and said something in English, which meant that she hoped that he would accept A Lin Tianduo. Days of requests.Su Zhongming answered her in English, "When there is danger, it is extremely unsafe to wander outside with a child."

The girl Midoya said in English, "A Lintian can run and walk by herself, and she will never hinder you. Moreover, she is the reincarnation of that priest, and I have a surprisingly good understanding with that priest! He If you want to summon me, I will know immediately, even if it is a reincarnation. If she encounters an accident during the journey, I can help her immediately."

Su Zhongming thought about it for a long time, but in the end he was helpless, and said to Ah Lintian, "Okay, okay! Daddy will take you there! Among the people waiting for Daddy in Guangling Kingdom, there happens to be a kid who can play with you. "A Lintian was so happy, he threw himself into Su Zhongming's arms for a while, Midoya stood aside and watched, only smiling quietly.

"By the way, outsiders are not allowed in Qingluan City, you..." Su Zhongming supported A Lin Tianduo, remembered Midoya's situation, and said to her in English.Midoya was calm and replied in English: "Well, I know, I have stayed in Qingluan City for a long time, and this place is like home, and I can't bear to leave. In this case, the only way to become a part of this big family is to join."

Hmm... Staying in Qingluan City with an aboveboard identity is far better than living a life in Qingluan City secretly. ——Su Zhongming thought for a while, agreed with her idea, and said in English, "Qingluan City also intends to recruit new disciples. You can ask Ye Shuangshuang about the procedures for joining. However, joining the middle water Ling Zhu may have a difficult test there, so you have to work hard."

Midoya smiled and nodded.Su Zhongming packed up the unpacked things, then carried the burden on his back, led A Lin Tianduo, said goodbye to Midoya, and walked out of the house.

After meeting Gonghe, Su Zhongming followed him down the deep stone steps from the underground exit to a secluded underground river. A big bamboo raft was moored on the river, and a faceless punter in a cloak was there. waiting.

Gong He first asked Su Zhongming to be the first to get on the bamboo raft, and he himself was the last to go up, and ordered the punters to row the bamboo raft immediately.The bamboo raft slowly left the shore, against the wind, and went straight along the direction of the river.

"Speaking of which, I haven't stepped out of the gate of Qingluan City to wander outside for a long time. It's a rare opportunity this time. I'm really happy!" Gong He sat on the bamboo raft and looked at the sky with joy on his face. Zhong Ming said.A Lintian, who was playing in the water, heard more and said casually: "Uncle loves to play, if the elder finds out, he will beat uncle Bigu." Gong He smiled and replied: "So, you can't tell the elder. .”

Su Zhongming looked at the scenery in the wild and listened to the warm chat between them, one big and one small, and he was in a very happy mood immediately.Gong He turned around, and suddenly said to Su Zhongming, "Again, why hasn't the city lord spoken for so long? I once heard that the city lord doesn't look like a city lord. Could it be that the rumors are wrong?"

"When did the rumor come about?" Su Zhongming listened, full of doubts.Gong He thought for a while, and replied: "I remember... It seems that in the summer, someone sent a message back, and everyone in Qingluan City was a little surprised at that time, because everyone thought that the new city lord should be Only those who are young and mature can take on the responsibility.”

"Young and mature? Uh! I'm just an ordinary person, and it's not up to me to do anything from the sky, so..." Su Zhong obviously couldn't believe it, and hurriedly explained his public image, intending to prevent mistakes rumor.

Gong He said, "At that time, the news said that the new city lord was like a naughty child, and he would not scare people to death with a glance. Now it seems that the person I saw is not what the news said..." Mo He scratched the back of Mo's head, looking a little disappointed with the status quo.

Su Zhongming was stunned, unable to explain for a while, looked at A Lin Tianduo, and reminded her: "My dear A Lin, stop playing, it's winter, the water is cold, and your hands are turning red from the cold."

As soon as the words fell, the child immediately stopped obediently, and went to Su Zhongming to report to Su Zhongming.When Gonghe saw him, he blurted out: "Lucky Priest Shuilingzhu, you are probably the disciple in Qingluan City who can fight the new city lord the most." A Lintian couldn't understand what he meant, tilted his head, "Uncle, what is a priest?"

Gong He smiled wryly, and thought to himself: Sure enough... once a person is reincarnated and becomes a child, he has polished all the common sense of an adult, and has to learn it all over again...

Su Zhongming answered A Lin Tianduo's question, "Priest is a profession, and everyone must have a profession in order to make a living." A Lin Tianduo gave a half-understanding 'oh', and no longer asked him any more related things.

After traveling by water for more than half a day, the leaf bamboo raft successfully entered the territory of Guangling Kingdom. When Su Zhongming and others went ashore, it was already sunset and dusk.They walked through the field and entered Yang Township. At that time, the series of red lanterns under the eaves of Qingwa Pavilion Gallery Street had been lit up. The scenery was really beautiful when they were there.

The three of them rushed to the Shili Bridge step by step. On the way, it suddenly rained lightly. Fortunately, they all carried oil-paper umbrellas, opened them in time, and braved the rain, and arrived at the agreed place.

Not far from the right side of the stone arch bridge named Shili Bridge, there is a painting boat moored. As soon as Su Zhongming stepped on the bridge, there was a call from the painting boat, "Here!" Su Zhongming looked at it and immediately walked towards it. Going over, getting closer, and seeing Liu Yinghe sitting inside, I dared to board the boat with confidence.

"It's finally here..." Liu Yinghe sighed.Su Zhongming entered the painting boat and bowed his hands to him, "King Guang, it's been a long time, I didn't expect that we would meet again today."

Yi Yeqing, who had been waiting for Su Zhongming in the boat with Liu Yinghe for a long time, walked slowly to Su Zhongming's side, and said: "My lord's order, I have already conveyed to King Guang." Su Zhongming nodded, and then said to Liu Yinghe , "Everyone is here, please ask King Guang to order people to sail!"

"Others, King Wen... No, you should be called City Lord Su now, does City Lord Su plan to ignore them?" Liu Yinghe blurted out in great doubt.Su Zhongming was also very puzzled when he listened, "There are obviously only two people who came with me, and there are only three people including myself. Where are the others?"

Liu Yinghe stretched out her hand and pointed at the bridge, "Isn't it the people hiding there? If not, I'll order someone to arrest them and interrogate them immediately." Su Zhongming looked out with his index finger, and sure enough, he saw two sneaky people. Sui's figure walked to the bow of the boat to take a closer look, and recognized that the two people in the green clothes like lotus leaves and the delicate red clothes like hanju were from Qingluan City, and immediately called out Yi Yeqing, and ordered He went to invite them out.

Yi Yeqing took the order, got off the boat, walked over, mercilessly lifted the two people hiding behind the stone railing of the arched bridge, and dragged them to Huafang. Seeing Su Zhongming's tense face, the two of them had a bad foreboding , all lowered their heads at the same time.

"You two, what are you two doing instead of obediently doing things in Qingluan City, sneaking out, and hiding furtively?" Su Zhongming opened his mouth and questioned them to resolve his doubts.

Knowing that paper can't wrap fire, knowing that it can't be concealed, Fei'er boldly said, "We...we also want to go out with the city lord. The city lord's sword wound hasn't healed yet, we can help!"

There were already two women, Wen Qian and Yan Ying, outside. Su Zhongming didn't want to be surrounded by beautiful flowers. He raised his sword eyebrows and opened his lips sharply, "Go back, go back! I don't need you to work for me outside! Qingluan City I have arrangements for you!"

"City Lord..." The two men begged on the shore, but no matter how much they begged, Su Zhongming just had an indifferent attitude and refused to agree at all.Liu Yinghe was moved by the sincerity of those two people, stood up, and persuaded Su Zhongming, "It's not easy for them to come out, since they've all followed here, why bother Su City Lord to be so cold and heartless? Let them come on board."

Su Zhongming turned his head, glanced at Liu Yinghe, and sighed softly, "Why are you so kind to the disciples of Qingluan City? The people around me already have two girls with you. Two, when crossing the street, people will think that I am taking a group of wives and concubines out to play in the mountains and rivers."

Liu Yinghe said with a smile: "City Master Su, you think too much, wives and concubines have their own looks and temperament, none of them look like your sweet wife! If you don't believe me, ask the men present, they look like Are you the wife and concubine of City Lord Su?"

Su Zhongming glanced at the other men in the boat, and had no choice but to give in. He turned his head and said to Fei'er and Ye Shuangshuang, "Okay, you all come up! Don't make trouble for me on the road." The two were happy in their hearts, and quietly They looked at each other, exchanged joy, and immediately boarded the boat.

"This time, the reason for inviting City Lord Su to come here is firstly because I heard that City Lord Su has a request for me, and the second is about Yang Bin's matter, so I trouble City Lord Su to come to Feicang, the capital of Guangling Kingdom, as a guest."

After the boat left the shore and sailed on the water for a while, Liu Yinghe finally got back to business.Su Zhongming replied, "King Guang's kind invitation is my honor, but... I'm afraid I owe you a favor again." Liu Yinghe heard Yi Yeqing, and immediately understood what he meant. I couldn't help smiling.

The winter rain outside has not stopped yet, and the humidity spreads everywhere. The painting boat swims along the small river. Downstream, there is a large ferry boat moored in the middle of the water. Liu Yinghe leads the people to leave the painting boat, board the large ferry boat, and continue to move forward. , when the ferry boat met the Wuhuang River, it went directly into the Wuhuang River and went downstream to the capital of Guangling Kingdom.

Everyone boarded the big ferry, and someone in the boat immediately came out to greet them. Su Zhongming put away the oil-paper umbrella, turned around, and saw a figure flying towards him, accompanied by a voice, "Teacher! Great, you finally came back safely." !" Su Zhongming was taken aback for a moment, then slowly came to his senses, and patted Yitian's back as comfort.

The little ghost took the opportunity to complain to him, "It's a shame that you are still an adult, you don't say anything when you go, and you cause me to be mistreated by that woman twice a day, how will you compensate me?" Su Zhongming looked down at him, Can't understand, "Being abused? You look fine now..."

The kid retorted, "It's the spirit, and the eyes can't see through the trauma of the spirit!" As soon as the words fell, Wen Qian's violent voice echoed, "Who is 'that woman'! Also, when will I Ill-treating you? Using chains to trap you in a house outside and letting the wind and rain beat you without food and drink is called ill-treatment!"

As soon as Wen Qian appeared, she squeezed the little devil's face hard, and continued to be irritable: "I want...to sue you for slander..." Yitian was in great pain, grabbed her by the wrist, and opened his mouth reluctantly, "It hurts, you just want to... Can't you be gentle like Yan Ying?"

"I have this kind of temper and temperament. How can you change a person's temper and temperament? If you can change it, you won't be me, Miss Ben!" his face.Yi Tian struggled and asked Su Zhongming for help, "Teacher... help me quickly..."

Suddenly, a man with a mustache came out of a cabin, and he praised: "Well said! Miss Wen Qian said well!" Yi Tian thought, "What a ghost!"Don't you see I'm being abused!Come and stop her!My face... almost turned into a pancake...
