The people of Pingling County reveled and celebrated for almost a night, and then everyone fell down tiredly and went to sleep. Therefore, at the city gate, in front of the street, under the blurry shade of the dancing trees, under the eaves of the corners and under the door... This city was once very

It is large, but now it has become very narrow and crowded, with people occupying almost every inch of land and corners.

It is unimaginable that one second it was bustling with people, and the next second it became quiet and peaceful. The summer night was peaceful and refreshing, and it seemed that even the noisy cicadas could not bear to disturb the sleep of this group of already exhausted people.

In the hazy night sky, stars flickered, and wisps of black smoke floated around the city wall. Many of the torches like leaping dragons were extinguished, leaving only the guards on the city wall standing upright like steel guns, illuminating a dark side, giving this place

The city is silent and slightly sad due to the stillness of the night. There is a warm feeling in the city.

Although Chen Baiqi knew that she hadn't rested for a long time, she couldn't sleep. Her mind seemed to be filled with a lot of things at once, and then seemed to be empty. She rubbed the center of her eyebrows, and then she felt that the soft skin between her eyebrows was red.

It hurts, I'm afraid it's due to the recent fatigue that caused the sha.

She had just sent Mr. Xiangbo back to the county government mansion for a rest. The night breeze was blowing all the way back, causing her eyelashes to narrow slightly and her expression to be distant and blurred.

Chen's father, brother-in-law, and others were dragged into the large and joyous group and had no time to spare. Later, they learned that Chen Baiqi had gone to see someone off, so they did not dare to leave at will for fear that she would not be able to find her when she came back, so they kept waiting where they were.

But maybe I got bored of waiting, so I found some reeds or mats from the nearby eaves and spread them on the ground. They used them as bed boards and leaned on each other on the ground to sleep for a while. But maybe because they were too tired, it was difficult for a group of people to relax.

With my mind open, I really fell asleep while chatting.

The weather was so bad that he was not afraid of catching a cold while sleeping in the open air at night. After Chen Baiqi glanced at their sleeping faces, he walked up to the tower alone. The people guarding the city knew her, so they naturally did not stop her and let her go.

Climb up the city.

She stood on the city wall, with her hands behind her back and her head raised, her eyes constantly looking far and wide... She felt that the dark land in the distance seemed to extend to her feet.

The night wind blew away the heat of the sun and the sweat. She had already taken off her "transparent" bloody clothes, revealing the dark clothes underneath that were stained by sweat and looked wrinkled.

Her white clothes and black hair were blown up by the night wind, and she seemed to be flying in the sky. Her entire figure was incredibly slender and ethereal.

At night after the war, everything was quiet, with no edge visible in the distance, and towering shadows nearby, which always gave people an uneasy feeling. Although Chen Baiqi was not the kind of person who catches wind and shadows,

But at a certain moment, she did feel that there was something concerning hidden in this darkness.

She turned her gaze away and back, her apricot eyes shining brightly in the night fire moved over the slopes, gaps, fields, and groves not far away... Suddenly, her eyes paused and she was stunned.

Staying at a certain place blankly.

There is a small forest on the west side of Tiankan outside the city. There are some sparsely planted poplar trees in the forest. The shadows of the trees are heavy and dark. Even if the moonlight shines occasionally, the forest is almost integrated with the night.

The scene is also invisible to everyone.

Indeed, in such a dark night, even Chen Baiqi with a pair of unicorn eyes couldn't see clearly what was hidden in the forest, but she could see... the system's unique enemy red mark.

And the name of the red sign is... Houqing.

It's actually the queen!

Chen Baiqi suddenly raised his eyes and his body tensed subconsciously. What was he doing running to the gate of the enemy's city alone in the middle of the night?

She couldn't see him, so she didn't know what Hou Qing's expression was, and she couldn't guess what he was thinking at the moment, or... whether he had been staring at the direction of the city wall, and whether he had noticed her going up the city wall.

But this did not prevent her from imagining that he might have seen her and stared at her with a look of hatred, but this cheerful personality was not like him, or he might be looking at her quietly at the moment.

He loves her, but underneath the calm surface are all kinds of dark revenge methods.

For some reason, even though she couldn't see anything, she still looked stubbornly in his direction. She didn't alert anyone. Maybe she knew that even if she called someone, they wouldn't be able to catch him.

The red name of Hou Qing has stayed in the same place. Just like this, one person is standing in the dark without knowing why, and the other is standing on the city wall staring at the dark place without knowing what he is thinking. The two of them face each other in silence.

System: The Queen’s favorability towards you is 20

Chen Baiqi was stunned.

Wait! Did she hear it right? What did she do to... actually gain the favor of the Queen?!

This is completely unscientific! It completely violates the laws of nature!

Before Chen Baiqi could fully understand where this favorable impression came from, she suddenly heard a strange noise coming from behind her. She lowered her expression and turned her head, only to see the elegant young master Cang Yue wearing a black cloak alone.

Come up.

Chen Baiqi didn't seem to expect that he would appear at this time. He frowned slightly and subconsciously glanced into the dark forest.

"Chen San, I am going back to Juyang."

Chen Baiqi suddenly looked at Young Master Cang Yue. He did not look at her, but looked up at the sky. He seemed to think that the starry sky tonight was particularly valuable for study. He was reluctant to look away, so he did not notice that there was a secret person peeping under the tower.

man of.

As soon as he heard that he was leaving, Chen Baiqi immediately said: "The young master said earlier that he agreed to Chen San's wish. Can it be counted?"

After hearing this, Young Master Cang Yue finally turned to her, he lowered his head, his eyes were steady and shiny, and his eyes were a little more intriguing against the backdrop of the night.

He said: "Chen San, I am waiting for you."

Chen Baiqi looked at him and didn't reply.

Young Master Cang Yue took off the string of beeswax beads that had been wrapped around his wrist, then took her hand, rolled up her sleeves, and then wrapped the beads around her in circles. Nayou took him

The remaining warmth and smell of the Buddhist beads on his body caused the skin on Chen Baiqi's hands to react.

"Wearing it, it should be regarded as a token between you and me. I will never break my promise." He stared at the girl's thin white wrists, slender and graceful, which were tightly wrapped around his personal belongings.

I couldn't control my fingers and stayed there for a few seconds longer.

When Chen Bai saw that he had left this personal item representing his identity to her, he knew that he was not saying something, but a solemn promise. For a moment, her eyes changed for a moment, and she didn't know what she was thinking. After a long time,

Fang let out a low "hmm".

System: Attention! Hou Qing's blackening value has increased by 20.

Ai?!

No one was paying attention, why did he suddenly turn black on his own?! Chen Baiqi stared in the direction of Xiao Linzi with a strange look on his face, only to find that... Hou Qing had left quietly at some point.

——

The next day, after Chen's father and his son Cang Yue secretly discussed some topic, they took Chen San and others and Bu Qu back to Chenjiapu. Since then, he has been strictly guarding Chen Baiqi and did not allow her to

Feel free to go out again.

Father Chen knew something about what happened between Chen San and Young Master Cang Yue, but he had the same view as Mr. Sun. The status gap between the two was too big. Even if she didn't like Mr. Chu, she couldn't compare to Young Master Cang Yue.

It's a close relationship.

Of course, the so-called high position refers to marrying the young master Cang Yue as his wife, but being a concubine is no longer picky.

But if the Jiao Jiaoer he had always held in his hands was allowed to be a concubine or a slave, he would rather not let her get married and support him for the rest of his life than let her suffer such humiliation and grievances.

Therefore, after thinking about it, after learning that Young Master Cang Yue was about to leave, he would step in to resolve everything. She would never be allowed to step out of Chenjiapu again until Young Master Cang Yue and his party completely left Pingling County.

, he finally lifted the ban on her.

In fact, Chen San had made an agreement with Young Master Cang Yue early on, and she had a backbone in her heart. Whether she saw her or not was not that important. In addition, filial piety is the first priority in this world, so she naturally had to listen to her father's words.

.

Now she has completely decided on the choice of the lord, and she only needs to make a final decision. But next, she has to increase her capital. Before going to Juyang to recommend herself as a counselor, she must first upgrade her equipment and keep up with her.

make money.

Her total assets are basically zero, and she has no food or money. Therefore, she has to work hard to earn money and food to prepare for emergencies, which is also one of the basic requirements for a good life.

In addition, owning a weapon belonging to her is also one of the most important things at the moment.

After she completed the task of defending the city, she received a blue-level weapon. This blue-level weapon was available for her to choose from. She naturally chose the knife type, and there were several choices for the knife type.

There are simple swords, large ring swords, horse-cutting swords, moon-covering swords...

Chen Baiqi considered the domineering habits of the "Six Styles of Crazy Sword" and chose the "Moon Covering Sword".

This Moon-covering Sword is also called the "Qinglong Yanyue Sword" and is one of the top ten famous knives.

But this "Moon-covering Sword" has a very rich history. It was a battle sword used by Guan Yu, a famous general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It was a heavy cavalry broadsword. Guan Yu used it to go through hundreds of battles and was invincible.

This rare weapon that can reverse time and space and travel from the future can only be accomplished by the system.

After getting the "Moon-covering Knife", Chen Baiqi looked at it carefully. The knife head was broad and long, shaped like a half-moon. There were two blades on the back. The blade was perforated with hanging hooks. There was a dragon-shaped spit at the connection between the knife head and the handle. The end of the long shaft

There is a weapon.

Chen Baiqi couldn't put it down, both in terms of appearance and weight of the "Moon-covering Knife." During the period of being grounded, she held it in her cramped room and carefully practiced her moves every day.

In addition, the stalled housing construction project in Chenjiabao has been restarted. Now Chen's father can't stop it even if he wants to. Who told people to demolish most of the abandoned buildings? If they don't repair them, will they be abandoned directly?

?

Seeing that more than half a month has passed, it is said that there is strength in numbers, and with everyone working together, the grand planned facilities on Chen Baiqi's architectural design drawings were finally completed and built successfully.
Chapter completed!
