This man was dressed in the military uniform of the Chu State, with a round waist and thick arms. He could walk as fast as a stupid horse, but his steps were very fast. In the blink of an eye, he walked through the hall and entered the house, straight into the middle hall of the residence.

He seemed to be in his thirties, with fair and plump skin. He had slender eyes and long eyebrows. His narrowed eyes scanned the surroundings, and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes rippled with a sense of shrewdness and sophistication.

He is not tall, about five feet in length. His sparse hair is tied up in a bun and points upwards. He wears half of his arms covered in pangolin armor. Standing tall with his shoulders slung like this, he has the illusion of a tiger with a back and a bear's waist.

He showed up suddenly and unscrupulously to interrupt the hairpin ceremony. Chen's father immediately turned red in the face, looked around and yelled at the servants, and smacked the case with anger.

Anyone who comes to disturb the situation today will be treated with hatred!

However, Ji Yun saw something unusual. He stepped in front of Chen Baiqi and Chen's father, and looked at this person with a cold face. He observed his surroundings, such as Ruqie and Rumo, but for a moment it was difficult to tell who sent the people.

make trouble.

At this time, the other guests also stood up in dissatisfaction. The women, children and beauties hid their faces and murmured in surprise. The bachelors and Confucian scholars kept a straight face and even bluntly criticized the sudden intruder. However, no one dared to confront him personally.

Confrontation, because no one is blind, they can see that this short fat man is full of energy and awe-inspiring, and he does not look like a person who is easy to offend.

Seeing that everyone was attracted by the short fat man, Si Jiang tugged at the corner of Chen Baiqi's clothes, whispered behind his ear and said, "Chen San, take a look at the little silver pot on his waist?"

Chen Baiqi was analyzing the person in front of him at first. After hearing Si Jiang's profound words, he took the opportunity to look towards the short fat man, but he was stunned for the next second.

There was a very exquisitely made silver pot. It was not necessarily a vessel, but it was about the size of a baby's palm. Both the production process and the lines were as smooth as a cup. What made Chen Baiqi feel strange was that the decorative little

On the silver pot... there was a pattern that seemed very familiar to her.

That is "Jiuli".

At this time, Ju suddenly got news from the side door and rushed in. With his identity and gender, he should not appear in the hall today. However, when he heard that someone was making trouble during the girl's ceremony, he immediately lost his mind and his eyes were red with anger.

, arms spread wide and accurate

When he was about to make a move, he saw the fat dwarf squinting his back eyes, grinning, and moved away without seeing any movement. He waved his left arm, but he was not hit by him, but he seemed to be shocked, and his face turned sharp.

Turning into ashes, the soles of his feet were knotted and he took a few steps back in panic.

"How dare a mere ignorant kid get started with Xiao Ke!"

The short, fat man showed contempt on his face, and he immediately kneaded the convolvulus with his hands as if kneading dough. His hand movements seemed to have slowed down, but they were blowing a torn and violent air towards the giant pocket.

go.

He was breathing heavily and his eyes were dilated. He wanted to hide, but his hands and feet were stiff and nailed to the ground. He felt like he had nowhere to hide.

This is the difference in strength. For Yu Ju, the short and fat man in front of him is like a giant. When he opens his mouth, his roaring breath can make the animals in the forest tremble.

"ah--"

The people in the temple were all literati and women. When they saw the two men making moves, they gasped in surprise and stood back from the wall, fearing that they would be harmed.

At this time, Ji Yun asked Chen's father to stay away. Seeing the situation, he was ready to take action. Suddenly, he heard a clear and soft female voice coming from behind: "Although I'm here uninvited, I'm still a guest, a distant visitor."

If you are here for important matters, why do you want to cause trouble with your stories?"

Although this female voice is calm and low-pitched, it has the tenderness and crispness of a young girl. She is the protagonist of today's hairpin - Chen Baiqi.

As soon as the word "Bai Qi" was read from the mouth of the guest of honor, all the guests in the room were silently thinking about the meaning of this word.

In fact, Chen Baiqi was called "Bai Qi" just because he wanted to firmly remember who he was.

From today on, she can become Chen Bai again.

The short and fat man stagnated for a moment, and finally stopped. He pushed the tall giant away as easily as a small stone, then clapped his hands, turned around and smiled "haha" in the direction of Chen Bai. He smiled.

When I got up, I didn't look like before at all.

He was so fierce and evil, but so kind that it made people feel weak and easy to bully. He touched his round and round belly, and then suddenly slapped his forehead as if he remembered something: "Hey, Xiao Ke is really here for business, almost...

Something important is ruined, something important is ruined..."

When he came, he was carrying a square box wrapped in black cloth on his back. He untied the black cloth, took off the square box and held it in his hands. Then he looked around the room with a smile, only to scare everyone away from him.

After looking at him, he finally stopped at Chen Baiqi.

Chen Baiqi looked indifferent and ignored his scrutinizing eyes. He first glanced at Ju who fell to the ground, and then Ji Yun said: "Brother-in-law."

Ji Yun knew what Chen Baiqi meant, so he immediately went to help Ju up and check him over. Then he shook his head at Chen Baiqi, indicating that he was okay.

Chen Baiqi's face looked better now.

On the other end, the short and fat man squinted his eyes and looked Chen Baiqi up and down curiously. At first, he had a kind of contempt and consideration that could not be easily noticed, but gradually he fell in love with her face, which was dressed up today.

But Furong's pretty face gradually turned into a strange and meaningful smile.

"My sister-in-law, did you get haircut today?" The smile at the corner of his mouth deepened. His words were slightly arrogant, but also conveyed a sparse and normal casualness. Maybe he was born with it.

I'm not used to talking to you normally, so I won't be offended.

"Who are you? You barged in without a reason, and you hurt people for no reason. Are you not looking down on my Chen Family Fort?!" Although Chen's father was weak, he was still very angry at this moment. If he hadn't

If you don't understand martial arts, you might have rushed up to him and fought him for 800 rounds.

"Hahaha, which famous family does Chen Jiabao belong to in the Chu Kingdom? With such a loud tone, Xiaoke really has to listen carefully!" The fat man lowered his face, his smiling eyes turned into razor-sharp slits, he

He smiled coldly, and immediately a suffocating evil aura spread out, making everyone feel the cold blade scraping their faces, their hairs standing on end, and cold sweat breaking out.

Ji Yun's pupils shrank and her expression changed in vain, while Si Jiang's face froze after Chen Bai stood up.

Master!

This is a master who is an extraordinary person!

Chen Baiqi's dark eyes were cold and dark. She knew that perhaps the entire temple together would not be as powerful as him alone. Fortunately... he was not here to cause trouble after all.

"Of course." Chen Baiqi performed a junior etiquette toward him.

He is a person who knows business. When the short fat man saw that Chen Baiqi dared to respond to his previous words in spite of the limelight and use this to change the subject, he could no longer continue to embarrass him. He lowered his aura, raised his eyebrows and said: "You know who Xiao Ke is?"

?”

Chen Baiqi looked at him and remained silent.

——She certainly doesn’t know.

"You should know that everything in this world has its consequences - Master Qianqiu, the master of Taoist Tianji." At this time, Mrs. Meiyu stood up to Pingting with a smile, but she helped Chen Baiqi to solve the problem.

The short and fat man, Master Qianqiu, slowly glanced at Mrs. Meiyu with dissatisfaction and confusion. He was startled for a moment, then his eyes shone, and in an instant he smiled so much that his eyes turned into slits: "Oh,

There are actually people who recognize Lao Ke...you are...Mrs. Meiyu of the Yin Yang family, right?"

Mrs. Meiyu, neither arrogant nor arrogant, nodded and saluted him.

"It's Meiyu."

Master Qianqiu's kindness to her only lasted for three seconds. This was to give face to the "Yin Yang Family". His smile faded, he shook his head at her, caressed his round belly and said: "Mrs. Mei Yu, this matter has nothing to do with you.

It doesn’t matter, Xiao Ke will just say a few words to Sister-in-law Chen, give her something, and then leave."

Mrs. Meiyu hesitated after hearing this, and looked at her husband. Seeing him shaking his head at her, she laughed and said a few words, then respectfully withdrew.

Father Chen has been dumbfounded ever since he heard Mrs. Mei Yu say that this short, fat man was Master Qianqiu.

He...he is actually the master of Qianji, Master Qianqiu?!

"Aunt Chen, come up!" Master Qianqiu waved to Chen Baiqi happily.

Chen Baiqi felt much calmer since she knew his identity. She stepped forward, and Master Qianqiu suddenly stretched out his hand to grab her. He pinched the inner three inches of her wrist, and raised his eyebrows several times. After a long time, he raised his head in slight surprise.

Eyes said: "You... you are very talented, but it's a pity..."

Chen Baiqi knew what he was regretting. Unfortunately, she was already old and had passed the best age for practicing martial arts. Even if she worked hard in the future, she would not be able to become a first-class master.

Of course there are tens of thousands of swordsmen in the world, but how many can truly reach the top level?

"I wonder who Master Qianqiu was entrusted by and what he gave?" Chen Baiqi asked quietly.

Master Qianqiu gave her a strange look: "I know how to guess. How did you know that I was entrusted by someone to come here?"

"Bai Qi and Master Qianqiu have no reason to meet each other, so naturally I can't bear to have Master Qianqiu make a special trip."

"My sister-in-law is quite clever." Master Qianqiu said with a smile.

Many people in this world like wise people, and Master Qianqiu happens to be one of these "many people".

Most people in this era are single-minded. This is due to the lag in knowledge and culture and the insufficient transmission of information. They have not yet developed the extended inertial thinking of modern people. For example, if you know one in modern times, you can calculate the second and then derive it.

It comes out three, but if there is no unified rule of calculation in ancient times, then later generations will not be able to find evidence to rely on. "Master Miao Zan." Chen Bai's blessing ceremony is neither salty nor light.

During the conversation with Chen Baiqi, Master Qianqiu felt a little depressed for some reason and said that she was not good. This person was quite decent and I didn't dislike her, but if I were to say good things, his indifferent expression was not pleasant either.

"Aunt Chen, you know that there are not many people in this world who can ask Xiao Ke to come and give gifts in person, and you can count them on one finger. But this gift, Xiao Ke doesn't know that it is a blessing to you.

Maybe it's a misfortune, Xiao Ke doesn't like to take care of so many things, but that person must let Xiao Ke deliver it to you personally when you get the hairpin, so you can go on."

Master Qianqiu handed the square box to her, and she could not refuse.

Chen Baiqi took it half forcefully and half smoothly. There was quite a weight on the palm of his hand, but it was not too heavy.

"Open this thing immediately." Master Qianqiu raised his chin.

Chen Baiqi raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Is this what he specifically confessed?"

"Of course."

Chen Baiqi curled her lips and smiled without any warmth. She lowered her eyes, revealing an unpredictable color.

Si Jiang stepped forward at the right moment and held the box for her, and she finally slowly opened the lid.

Looking inside, there is a... golden crown hairpin.
Chapter completed!
