It snowed heavily to welcome the New Year. After the twelve bells rang, the snowflakes became bigger and bigger, urging such excited people to go home and sleep quickly. However, a few people really went home to sleep, and they were not looking for a home.
In a restaurant, there were a few friends and they were very drunk.
Every year, there are always one or two drunkards who freeze to death in the streets and alleys. If they were not discovered by those urchins who love to play in the snow while pulling snowballs, it is estimated that no one will find these unlucky drunkards who freeze to death until the school melts.
Even though the government warned many times, such things are still prohibited repeatedly.
The snow fell for two days and two nights, and it lightened up on the morning of the third day. The heavy snow covered the entire Changjing capital with a thick layer of snow, and also trapped people at home and unable to go out.
When the snow stopped for a moment, people became active and began to clear the snow on their roofs. The government also sent a large number of horse-drawn carriages to transport the snow from the city out one by one.
The people from the Wu family stayed in the Wu Mansion for two days and began to leave one after another. If it hadn't been for the heavy snow, they would have left earlier. From the time they arrived to the time they left, the warriors did not greet or see them off.
During that time, Wukou had no communication except talking to them that night, and they all became familiar strangers. M.
There were two more comfortable deck chairs in the corridor of Chen Mo's small yard. Chen Mo and Wukou were lying on the chairs, watching the servants working hard to clear away the snow.
"My sister will be back in two days." Wukou said, shaking his chair. "Are you really okay?"
Wukou was still worried about what happened that night.
"You've asked me a dozen times in the past two days, are you bothered?" Chen Mo lay quietly with his eyes closed, and did not rock the chair like Wukou did.
"Not that many, just a few times." Wu Kou looked like he didn't know anything. "By the way, was that person very strong that day?"
Wukou mentioned the unpleasant things that day.
"Very strong."
"Are you Jianghu people taking action without being reasonable?" Wu Kou asked.
"Probably so."
"Your answer is too helpful."
"How else do you want me to answer?"
"Okay, it's really hard to talk to you." Wu Kou slumped his feet and straightened his chair. "I'm going to the Cheng Mansion later. We're brothers, so let's go together."
"I won't go." Chen Mo refused decisively. He could guess what the warriors would face when they went there. "I am your eldest brother. No younger brother asks for anything from the eldest brother."
"It's your uncle's." Wu Kou cursed and left alone.
Xiaolan walked over with a shovel, looked at the young master's leaving figure, and asked: "Mr. Chen, why did the young master leave with such a straight face?"
"Who knows."
"Mr. Chen, can I ask you something?" Xiaolan asked a little nervously.
"What's the question?"
"Well, before, when my brother Agui went shopping, he heard a rumor that this demon appeared in the world. He was very scary and drank blood like hair..." Xiaolan's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Is that devil also called Chen Mo?" Chen Mo continued her words.
"Yeah, yeah." Xiaolan nodded vigorously. She seemed to have forgotten that Chen Mo still had his eyes closed. Xiaolan didn't pay much attention at first, it was just a coincidence, but what happened to Chen Mo and that man in Zuixian Tower that day
Conflict, and in just a few words, I felt that this mysterious guest was even more weird.
But the Chen Mo in front of him was completely inconsistent with the rumor he heard. He didn't believe that the devil in the rumor was the one in his family, but he still couldn't help but want to ask.
"Do you think I look like me?" Chen Mo asked.
"No, Xiaolan thinks Mr. Chen is a nice person. Please forgive me for saying it bluntly. He may seem unkind, but he is still quite nice. How should I put it? He is approachable."
"It seems quite contradictory, but that's how it feels anyway." Xiaolan seemed to be speaking incoherently.
"A good person? I do know a person called a good person." Chen Mo thought of the one who was on par with him.
"Xiaolan, what are you doing? A Fei has made a lot of snow again!" The little bee in the distance called Xiaolan.
"Mr. Chen, I have to go to work." After Xiaolan finished speaking, she ran out, as if the doubts in her heart had been resolved.
.......
Zuixianlou has not been open for the past two days, and no one came in during the snowy day. Not only Zuixianlou, but also other businesses are like this, except for the brothel girls who have men who are thinking about them. There seem to be some customers there.
Jiu'er looked at the window next to the place where Chen Mo had a conflict with the man that night, looking at the white snow that those people outside the window were sweeping and shoveling.
The shocking points on the wooden planks on the ground behind her were still there. They couldn't find anyone to fix them during the Chinese New Year, so they had to leave it alone. Anyway, the restaurant wasn't open these days.
"Why are you looking so sad? Did something happen to you that night?" The man who had fought with Chen Mo appeared next to her and stood side by side with her.
"It's too bad to be considered bad, but there is still a chance." Jiu'er put away his sad face and said, "Why did you come back suddenly without notifying me in advance?"
"I'm going back to my place, what should I inform you? Did you do something sneaky behind my back?" the man said angrily.
"How dare we? Although Jiu'er is not a good person, he still repays his kindness." Jiu'er said softly.
"Boss, I have a question." Jiuer asked.
"Do you want your own place?" the man asked.
"It's only a matter of time before you start your own family. Jiu'er is a woman and will eventually get married. When the time comes, we can't help the boss so blatantly." Jiu'er said.
"Marry me, marry me, at worst I'll find another one." The man said nonchalantly.
"That person is Chen Mo, the double-sword executioner that Mr. Li mentioned?" Jiu'er returned to the topic.
"The age, strength, and name basically match up. I just didn't see him holding a pair of swords. But in Changjing, there aren't many people who always carry swords with them when they go out. If not say 100%, at least 80% of the time it's him." The man.
He touched his chin and said with some depression: "The last time I saw him, he looked like a dead person. I didn't expect that in less than two years, he would be so full of life and create such a big mess in the Red Dust Garden.
It’s still moving, but it’s still alive.”
"Can you tell me about the first time you met him?"
"There's nothing to say. It's all over. At that time, I just glanced at him and didn't pay much attention to him. What? Are you interested in him? If so, I still advise you to give up this idea. You can't control such a person."
The man reminded kindly, "It's better to find a rich young man from Changjing."
"Let me ask, if he is that Chen Mo, Jiu'er should stay away from him when he sees him in the future. Jiu'er doesn't want to be torn into thousands of pieces by him."
"Don't worry, he won't dare do anything to you in Changjing. When you leave Changjing, you can just do what you want." The man said irresponsibly.
"It seems that I can only be a canary in Changjing." Jiu'er understood what the man meant. The danger he mentioned was not referring to Chen Mo alone, but to deeper and more dangerous dangers.
"I've told you a long time ago that if you want to gain more, you have to lose more. If you want a broader world, you can't get the peace and stability of Zuixian Tower."
"Yes, yes, so Jiu'er should just quietly be a canary. Besides, Jiu'er is just a canary, not the swan that flies around the world."
"No ambition." The man described it.
"As long as your breasts are big," Jiu'er said unceremoniously.
"Bah, shameless." The man said and left.
Jiuer turned her back to the man and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
.....
Lingmiao City, Shen Family.
"Dad, the snow has stopped, the snow has stopped." Shen Qianqian ignored Xiaoxue, said directly that the snow had stopped, and then ran happily in the yard, like a child who had been suppressed.
A woman in gorgeous fur clothes followed the girl, looking worried about her falling: "Slow down, be careful if you fall."
"You child, you are telling lies with your eyes open. It's obviously still raining. Don't think that it's not snow when the snow is light. Don't treat a copper plate as money." A slightly wealthy man stopped Shen Qianqian from running and told her not to be there. Ran away.
"When are we going to Changjing?" Shen Qianqian didn't listen to the man's words at all, she looked up at the man's smiling face and said.
"I've never seen you so active before." Shen Wanguan pinched her nose and said.
"Hurry up, hurry up, let's go to Changjing now." Shen Qianqian urged.
"Where are we going? Someone asked me this morning. The road has been blocked by heavy snow. It will take time to clean up. Now the carriage can't go at all." Shen Wanguan said with a helpless face. "Your father, I am not as good as Chen Mo. I have the ability to carry you to Changjing like flying over a wall."
Shen Wanguan heard about Shen Qianqian falling off a cliff. Although his words were a little pale, Shen Wanguan could feel that it was really dangerous at that time, and he also believed that his daughter did not lie to him.
It can also be seen from this incident that Chen Mo is very powerful and her daughter is indeed lucky to meet him.
"Don't worry, your brother Di said that he is fine in Changjing and nothing has happened to him. He will not leave Changjing for a while."
"Sister, sister, look." A young man's voice came from not far away, attracting the attention of everyone here.
A few people only saw Shen Baibai put his palms in front of him, and a ball of wind and snow was spinning on his palms. It exploded after a moment, and finally returned to normal.
"Wow." Shen Qianqian trotted over, stood in front of Shen Baibai, and said excitedly: "Do it again, do it again."
Shen Wanguan and his wife stood together, looking at the brother and sister, their eyes full of happiness, worry, and other complex emotions.
"A hundred years ago..."
"I don't know. If I can see him when I go to Changjing tomorrow, I'll ask if this is a good development."
