There were two young men sitting in a private room on the second floor of a tavern called "Hongxiu Zhao". Two burly men were guarding the door. When many customers passed by, they glanced at them in surprise and secretly wondered.
, what kind of person came inside, had a meal, and the precautions were so tight, could it be some big shot.
In the private room, after a table full of dishes had been ordered, Wang Xier sat in front of Lu Chen in a rare sight, staring at Lu Chen constantly, her eyes looking extremely unfamiliar.
"Boss, is that you?" Wang Xier hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but ask.
"What do you think!" Lu Chen picked up the white porcelain wine bottle and got himself a glass, and responded with a magnetic voice.
Wang Xi'er carefully looked at the sharp-edged, delicate and stern face in front of him, and the unconventional temperament that was revealed invisibly. It was as if he had changed into a different person. After looking at it for a long time, he withdrew his eyes that were filled with surprise from the bottom of his heart.
In his impression, his old mainland Ling Feng should have died in a sea of fire in a tragedy three years ago. Why he suddenly appeared in front of him today with such a big change really made him feel unbelievable.
It's almost like a dream.
"You are really my boss, Lu Lingfeng!" Wang Xier then showed a look of surprise, and couldn't help but slap her chubby hands on the table.
Lu Chen twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "I haven't used this name for a long time. Now that you call me that, it makes me feel a little strange and a little nostalgic."
"Boss, I...!" Wang Xier hesitated and looked at Lu Chen.
Chase Lu said: "I'm not used to being called this way, so I'd better call me brother. Don't spread the news of my return!"
"Hey, okay!" Wang Xier responded excitedly.
Lu Chen put down his wine glass, looked at each other again and said, "How are Shangguan Bai, Luo Xuan and the others doing?"
Shangguan Bai, Luo Xuan, and Wang Xi'er were Lu Chen's best friends when they were young. They were all playboys who loved to cause trouble, eat, drink, and have fun. They formed the so-called "Four Unparalleled Tigers" because they had similar personalities. Okay.
You can wear a pair of crotchless pants. When they were there, Wushuang City was in a state of turmoil. The people were complaining and restless. Only because of their strong background, no one dared to offend him.
"Hey, don't mention it, they are all miserable now!" Wang Xier frowned and took a sip of wine, looking very depressed.
Lu Chen said in surprise: "Look at your expression, it seems that there have been a lot of changes between the two of them!"
"Shit, it's a long story. I'll just tell you a few words. You also know that Shangguan Bai's family runs an escort agency. When I was out escorting two years ago, I met a group of robbers on the mountain road.
, these bastards are ruthless and extremely vicious. No one in their family was spared, and they were all treated viciously, even worse than your family. Luo Xuan is a little better. His family is engaged in the silk and satin business. In recent years, due to poor management of the family, the business has suffered.
Luo Xuan was not able to catch up, the decline was too severe, and he went bankrupt all of a sudden. Luo Xuan was depressed at home and became very depressed. Suddenly one day he said that he was going to practice martial arts and travel around, but there was no trace of him, not even a letter.
Send back a letter." Wang Xier played with the wine glass, feeling a little melancholy.
Lu Chen picked up the white porcelain wine jug and poured a glass for Wang Xier, and then poured another for himself: "In the past few years, you are the only one who has changed the most!"
Wang Xier looked at Lu Chen seriously and said, "Brother, I really want to know how you escaped back then and where you have been these years!"
Lu Chen took a sip lightly and said with an indifferent expression: "These questions are not suitable for you to know. I can only tell you that there is a reason for coming back this time!"
Wang Xier was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized that Lu Lingfeng had a blood feud, and of course he had an ulterior secret.
"Boss, you have changed!" Wang Xier stared at Lu Chen who was calm and composed, her tone sounding extremely serious.
Lu Chen looked very calm and said with a gentle smile: "What's the change? Tell me about it!"
"Your temperament, personality, demeanor, and even your whole person have changed tremendously, as if you have become a person I don't know. In my impression, the boss is always so cynical and bohemian!" Wang Xier expressed a very serious expression.
He responded seriously.
Lu Chen smiled calmly: "I didn't expect that you know me so well. It seems that I didn't make you a friend in vain back then, haha!" This is why when the two of them first met on the street, they mentioned that the widow of the Wang family is still here.
Okay, the reason why Wang Xier reacted so strongly.
Wang Xier had the habit of spying on women bathing since she was a child. One time, Lu Lingfeng caught her in the act, and she became the subject of constant ridicule and threats to him, which made him deeply worried and deeply remembered.
"What have you experienced in these years? You have changed so much!" Wang Xier couldn't help but said.
Lu Chen was silent for a while and then sighed: "After going through a nightmare-like training, I can complete a gorgeous transformation in life. When I come back this time, I have enough confidence and confidence to accomplish something!" Three
Years are neither long nor short, but for a young man who was still in his youth, it was an excellent opportunity for him to rise from the ashes and transform into a butterfly.
Wang Xi'er saw that Lu Chen didn't reveal his secret thoughts, so he nodded, picked up the wine glass and said, "That's right, it seems that you have suffered a lot in these years. It is only right to take revenge and to repay injustice. That little brother
I wish you success and immediate success!"
"Thank you!" Lu Chen picked up the wine glass and clinked it with the other person, and took a sip, but he felt a little sad in his heart, things are different and people are different!
Things have changed, but the city is still the same as before, but the old people in the city are no longer the same.
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the window, which was extremely ear-piercing.
"Miss, please let us go!"
"We are innocent!"
"Hurry up and catch him, my lady, if you dare to run away, skin them!"
Lu Chen suddenly frowned: "What happened outside? It's so noisy!"
Wang Xier quickly stood up, walked forward, opened the window and looked down, and saw on the noisy street, a beautiful girl wearing a red dress and holding a long whip, leading a group of slaves, driving several workers away.
The doctor who was tied up with hemp rope walked on the street, and his unruly and rude behavior attracted many people to stop and watch and comment.
"Tang Xuan, the lord of the city, has two thousand gold coins from the Tang family. He captured a few men and drove them towards the city lord's mansion!" Wang Xier took one look and understood what happened. Then he turned around and explained to Lu Chen: "It's the two thousand gold coins from the current city lord Tang Qianjun.
Tang Xuan has grabbed a few doctors to treat her old man! This has been going on for several days."
Lu Chen said calmly: "Is that so? Is he the current city lord? What disease does he have that requires such a big fanfare!"
"Hey, you don't know this. After your father's accident happened that year, Liuyun Sword Sect sent the current city lord to take over. Everything was fine in the first year, but he contracted a strange disease in the second year, causing
His skill was greatly reduced, and he was almost unsteady as the city lord. He found many doctors, but they were unable to do anything. His daughter Tang Xuan was eighteen years old. Although she had martial arts, she was a unruly and willful lord. In recent years,
Some playboys were taught a lesson by her! But her only advantage was that she was very filial. In order to cure her father's strange disease, she searched for Lang Zhong every day, which made Wushuang City full of storms and smog." Wang Xi'er sat down in her original position and kowtowed.
Holding some peanuts, he explained slowly.
"Oh, it turns out there is such a thing!" Lu Chen narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and thought for a while before saying: "Wu Shuang City, isn't it peaceful recently?"
Wang Xi'er threw a peanut into her mouth and said with some surprise: "Hey, you feel it too. Indeed, during this period, the city was very unstable. Robbery, murder, and headless murder occurred from time to time. It was much worse than when your father was there.
When he was in power, it was simply incomparable!"
Wushuang City is the core county of Liuyun Sword Sect. Three years ago, it was taken over by Lu Chen's father, Lu Zhenxuan. It has been passed down from generation to generation that the ancestor 'Lu Xuanfeng' was a famous 'Wushuang Sword Master' more than a hundred years ago.
His reputation spreads far and wide. He can be said to be a giant and a famous family.
His father had been in power for more than ten years, and Wushuang City had always been peaceful and calm. Not to mention deaths, even thefts rarely happened.
However, today Lu Chen had just entered the city, and there was a murderous case of monster invasion. It is enough to imagine the chaos of this Wushuang City. Is this related to the city lord being infected with a strange disease?
Wang Xi'er glanced at Lu Chen's left hand, and said with confusion in her eyes: "By the way, what happened to your left hand? OK, why is it wrapped with a bandage?" He was Lu Chen's childhood friend, but three years ago
He was not at the scene of the murder, so he didn't know what happened to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen took a sip of wine and said calmly: "It's just a little accident!"
"Oh, that's right!" Wang Xi'er nodded, without thinking too much, and said with the strength of the wine: "As a brother, I would like to advise you, I know you can't let go of the grudges in the past, but some things will be over after they are over.
, don’t be too entangled, it will only increase your worries. It’s better to be like me, carefree. To be successful in life, you must have all the joy, and don’t let the golden bottle be empty to the moon.”
After saying that, he lay down in a daze. He had already drank a lot of wine before coming here, and this time he drank another pound. His drinking capacity had already reached the limit. After all, it was Fa Xiao, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and he had accumulated it in his heart.
My feelings were released all at once, and of course I had to enjoy myself while drinking.
"Well, thank you for your warning. I, Lu Chen, am very satisfied to have you as my friend!" Lu Chen looked at Wang Xi'er who had already fallen down, smiled and shook his head.
The sun sets and dusk approaches.
After leaving the tavern, Lu Chen asked Wang Xier's servants to take him home, and he rented a courtyard near the city lord's mansion to live.
Wang Xi'er was a friend he had recognized since childhood. He came back this time with a heavy responsibility. There was a long way to go, and there were unimaginable dangers waiting for him ahead, so he didn't want to implicate a rich kid with no background in the water for no reason.
