The young magistrate remained unmoved by the man's cynicism. He just looked at the man in front of him and said with a smile: "I have been hiding and hiding for all these years, and I didn't even see the princess for the last time. I don't think it's quite boring."
?”
The man remained silent, just staring at the young magistrate in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.
The young magistrate smiled and said: "If you don't understand, don't think about it. Why bother yourself?"
The man said: "That makes sense."
The young magistrate said: "Zhou Xianshan, I am not here to catch up with you."
Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar title, the man was silent for a long time, as if during this period of time, those long-lasting memories, those things hidden deep in his mind, began to surge again.
It has been a long, long time since anyone mentioned his name. It seems that even among the old people in the divine capital, not many people still remember his name.
Time is always fair. As you move forward, you will naturally leave behind a lot of things.
That's what memory is like.
The man laughed at himself: "Where in the world is there Zhou Xianshan?"
The young magistrate nodded and smiled: "That's true. If those guys outside the country know that you are still alive, you will die again no matter what."
The man asked back: "Since you know about this kind of thing, it seems that you must have put a lot of effort into it. What do you want from me?"
He doesn't have many friends in his life, and he can count them on one hand. Among these friends, no matter what, he should not be the one in front of him. Since he is not a friend, he can naturally understand what it means.
"I want to ask a question. You don't have to rush to tell me the answer. You can think it through before speaking. But you have to understand that once you tell a lie, your identity and where you are may be known to many people.
"
The young magistrate spoke slowly, and there was naturally an undisguised threat in his words.
The man turned a deaf ear and just glanced at the sky. In the distant sky, the few dark clouds were dispersing at this moment.
Will there be sunny days after the rain or will there be another heavier rainstorm?
It's actually hard to say.
"After so many years of idleness, wouldn't it be nice to continue living? Why do I have to get involved in those things?"
The young magistrate smiled and said: "Aren't you afraid that it will directly involve countless people like it did back then?"
The man said: "I have been alone for a long time."
"Brother Zhou, even if you don't regard that woman as your wife, you can still watch her die like this?"
The young magistrate looked beyond the man on the threshold and looked further inside. There was a woman busy in the yard, and she didn't know what was happening outside the door.
The man said calmly: "Since it is a means to hide others' eyes, what is there to care about?"
"Okay, what a scholar."
The young magistrate raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you have nothing to worry about, should I kill that woman first and then ask questions?"
The man was silent for a moment and sighed: "Why is this necessary?"
The young magistrate said with a smile: "In that case, I hope Brother Zhou will tell you everything he knows."
The man remained silent.
The young magistrate asked: "Why did Brother Zhou choose to come here in the first place? If it was to escape, the world is so big that there is no place to go. Why does it have to be Weizhou, why does it have to be Tianqing County?"
The man remained silent.
The young magistrate smiled and said, "Is this your acquiescence?"
The young magistrate said: "Since you have been here for many years, what do you know about it? Can you tell me?"
The man shook his head and said, "It's no good knowing so much."
The young magistrate said calmly: "But I have come so far, so I must know something."
The man stopped talking and just rubbed his cheek.
The young magistrate frowned and said, "If Brother Zhou really doesn't say anything, then I will..."
"It's okay, I just want to know who your old friend is." The man thought about it over and over again, but he couldn't figure out the identity of the young county magistrate in front of him.
The young magistrate smiled and said: "Do you have the right to choose now?"
The man nodded and said: "It seems that according to you, I just don't have it... After all, you are great. A Wangyou came to trouble me personally. How could I possibly do anything..."
The young magistrate said: "I know..."
Before he finished speaking, the man had already stood up from the threshold, walked to the young magistrate in one step, and then stretched out a hand. The young magistrate frowned slightly, and his clothes rippled, as if a calm mirror-like lake suddenly had ripples at this moment.
.
But it was this little disturbance that allowed him to avoid the man's grasp.
The young magistrate stepped back, and at the same time Yun Danfeng said softly: "Brother Zhou has made good progress in his realm in recent years, but in the end it's just not that good."
The man yelled, then took a heavy step and hit the young magistrate's heart. The latter stretched out his hand to hold the man's shoulder, and was about to push the man in front of him away with an understatement, but he didn't expect that the man's collision would weigh tens of millions of pounds.
With so much power, he had no choice but to be driven towards the opposite courtyard door by the man in front of him.
With a bang, a wooden door was smashed into pieces in an instant, and wood chips flew everywhere in the sky.
The young magistrate had an ugly expression on his face. He backed away and bumped into a beam supporting the house. He just stopped, but before he could react, the man in front of him punched him in the face.
This man who had not touched anyone for many years sighed with emotion, "Some of my hands are raw."
The young magistrate reacted and slapped the man in front of him on the shoulder. The man took a few steps back to avoid the blow.
The young magistrate frowned slightly, took a breath, and said with some curiosity: "I didn't expect that you could actually take a few steps forward despite your anger and hiding among the streets and alleys for these years."
Cultivation is not easy, especially when you have reached this level. It is almost impossible to forget your worries when you have something on your mind.
The young magistrate knew what the man in front of him had experienced before, so he absolutely did not believe that the man in front of him could really step into that realm and become a so-called person who forgets his worries.
But the facts are before us again.
The young magistrate was a little disappointed, but mostly angry.
When he was in the academy, the man in front of him always suppressed him. After all these years, times have changed. He originally thought that the two of them were worlds apart, but he never expected that when they meet again now, they are still between brothers.
.
The man raised his eyebrows and said, "I seem to have some clues, but I'm too lazy to think about it. I'll find out if I peel off your face."
The young magistrate smiled and said, "Oh?"
The man hummed, glanced around, then twisted his neck and said with a smile: "I was indeed a powerless scholar back then, but that was back then..."
