The sheath leads to the bright glow shining on the sword gallbladder,

The spring breeze rushes into the cold pass.

Determined to be famous among the emperor,

If you don’t serve the country, I will never pay you back!

It is said that since Ye Ziqi said goodbye to Gu Feng and others, he wandered south alone. He knew that he was carrying the national order, so he paid attention to every step and always cared about it.

After entering Dahan Pass, I looked around. Most of the merchants were entering and exiting the pass. The carriages and horses were like dragons. The military officers guarding the pass carefully checked the customs clearance documents. There was a stone tablet beside the road with the words "The First Pass in the World" engraved on it. It was very lively.

In this crowded crowd, more than a dozen horsemen and horses suddenly came out with whips raised, and surrounded the two sisters and came to Ye Ziqi.

The first one has a close figure and a gentle face; the second one has a charming and approachable expression. Both of them are wearing tight-sleeved clothes and dressed like Jianghu people. They cupped their fists towards Ye Ziqi and said: "My little girl Shangguan Shu, Shangguan Ya

, I would like to ask you, young hero, is Mr. Ye of the Ju Kingdom?"

Ye Ziqi cupped his fists and returned the gift: "That's right." and presented the letter as proof.

Shangguan Shu checked the letter and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, if you need anything when you go to Zhongzhou this time, just ask, we will take care of you on the way. It's rare that Sister Shuang asks our sisters for help!"

It turned out that Baicheng Shuang was worried that Ye Ziqi would have a long journey here, so he wrote to Shangguan family, a famous family in Langya, to support him on the way. Baicheng Shuang was originally the daughter of Shangguan Lingbo, and had always been regarded as one of his own by the Shangguan family.

Her request for a higher position was immediately taken seriously by the Shangguan family.

Ye Ziqi thanked the two girls for their kindness and went south with the team. At noon on the second day, he had arrived at Shuofang City.

The Shangguan sisters held a banquet at the largest Jiulong Inn in the city to bring the wind to Ye Zi.

Ye Qi should be.

Zi Qi secretly sighed that he might have been involved in the troubles within Shangguan's family. He did not want to get involved too much, so he simply responded: "Zi Ziqi, the centurion of the Ju Kingdom, is an official with military merit and is not a child of a noble family."

"Simple. Our Shangguan family has settled down in troubled times, and we don't just rely on marrying a girl, and our martial arts skills have not fallen behind! Follow the rules, and kung fu speaks for itself!"

Ye Ziqi frowned and raised his head, and saw a man in his early twenties barging in. He was wearing a crescent-colored brocade suit, his eyebrows were like jet black, and his eyes were like cold stars. He only glanced at Ye Ziqi briefly and then stared at him.

He turned to Shangguan Shu and said in a cold voice:

"Nonsense!" Shangguan Shu was furious: "If grandpa and uncles know that you treat guests like this, you will be severely punished——"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Ziqi raised his hand to block him: "I don't understand Mr. Jin Lin. What does Kung Fu mean?"

Ye Ziqi was not very young yet, but these girls were staring at him embarrassingly. Shangguan Shu smiled when she saw this:

Even though he said this, Shangguan Ya could still tell that this young man seemed to have something on his mind and was uneasy, which made the atmosphere a bit solemn.

During the chat at the banquet, Shangguan Ya suddenly took out two scrolls and said, "Master Ye, Sister Shuang said that you are well versed in demon literature. Is this possible?"

Shangguan Shu was shocked and angry that her younger brother dared to take the matter to such a high level, and could not think of a way to resolve it.

Seeing how knowledgeable he was, the girls looked at him with admiration.

"That's great. I have two monster pictures here, and I would like to ask you to clarify them."

His tone of voice was unkind, and it was clear that he was angry!

Shangguan Shu's face darkened: "Jin Lin, don't cause trouble. Mr. Ye is a great talent. He can help us interpret the demon scroll. He is a distinguished guest of our Shangguan family!"

Shangguan Shu's entourage who was responsible for guarding the door responded: "Second Young Master, there are guests here from the Ju Kingdom who are here to help us with our studies."

"Then if there is a monster that is still alive after four hundred years..."

Shangguan Shu's anger surged: "Jinlin, what exactly do you want to do?"

Shangguan Shu looked sick: "Xiaoya, what are you anxious about? Wait until after dinner——"

"Do you still have a magic book here?" Ye Ziqi suddenly picked up a thick demon book and said, "This thing is very dangerous. I don't know what kind of dark and evil old demon is hidden in it. It's better to deal with it quickly.

good."

The voice was that of a strange man.

Ye Ziqi naturally agreed, so the group hurriedly ended the banquet and headed back to Shangguan Mansion.

He pointed according to the picture, and the eyes of Shangguan and the two girls suddenly lit up: "Sure enough! It took my grandfather more than ten years to ask someone to interpret it. It is not as detailed as the young master! There are many demons with origins in our house.

Volume, please ask the young master to come over after dinner and help us clear up our doubts!"

"It's been so long, I'm afraid the books will turn into ashes. Where could there be any monsters!" Shangguanya thought that Ye Ziqi was deliberately saying exaggerated words to tease her, so he covered his mouth and smiled in cooperation, but then he realized that it was not what she thought.

.

"Master Ye, don't worry about them. There are nine sisters in our Shangguan family. These three are the youngest. They have not yet left the court. It is rare to see strangers, so they are inevitably curious——

"What kind of ancient rule is this?" Shangguan Shu said tit for tat: "Do you want to kick all three of your girls out? When they are not studying, they are not allowed to come and go at will. I make the decision here, don't bother me.

!”

When Ye Ziqi heard this, he found out that the root of the disease was Baicheng Shuang. Thinking of the relationship with the Shangguan family, which was of great significance to the Ju Kingdom, as a Ju minister, he must not ignore such a hidden danger, so he corrected himself and said:

"Master Shangguan, it's okay to have a competition. How will the consequences of winning or losing be arranged?"

"Sir Shangguan," Ye Ziqi faced Shangguan Shu and said seriously: "I came to Shangguan's house as the envoy of Ju Kingdom. I must not be humiliated for no reason. Otherwise, the person who is looked down upon may not be the next person."

"Xiao Xin, Xiao Ping, Xiao Qing, come and play." Shangguan Ya smiled and waved, and the girls ran over and lay down next to the two of them to watch.

"Aren't you from my Shangguan family?"

"Master Ye?"

Shangguan Ya's gentle and quiet face was indifferent: "It doesn't matter, the Demonic Sealing Book that can be placed here is already over a hundred years old."

Moreover, the young master is a person sent by Lord Frost! In the past two months, Lord Frost has been the biggest curiosity in our family. Everyone talks every day, looking forward to seeing this cousin who has ascended the throne, but

After all, I have no chance, so I can only satisfy my craving from the young master, who is so good-looking!"

"Haha, that's right!" Shangguan Jinlin said with a smile: "Otherwise, I will go everywhere and spread the word that the envoys of the Ju Kingdom do not know etiquette and barged into my library at Shangguan's house. Your face must not look good!

"

Ye Ziqi seemed to be really shocked by her answer.

"It's okay." Ye Ziqi glanced at the monster map with a strange look on his face: "Huh? These are clearly two treasure maps. They say that there are monster magic weapons hidden in these caves."

Ye Ziqi was sitting in a corner of the library, reading from the volumes. One of the Shangguan sisters was looking for the demon book, and the other was copying it carefully, and they were also busy with him.

At this time, the fourth sister Shangguan Ya said in secret words: "Young master, please be careful! Brother Jinlin is the commander of Fenglei Cavalry. He has fourth-level skills. He has always had a grudge against Sister Baicheng Shuang, so he deliberately attacked you.

Looking for trouble!"

The voice changed suddenly, and then, "Bang——", the wooden door was violently pushed open!

"Of course he's dead!" Shangguan Ya said with a smile: "In a hundred years, all the monsters will be consumed! The magic-sealing books that have not expired are placed in the forbidden areas of various immortal sects for safekeeping. In the past hundred years, only

Flows to the human world.”

"nothing."

"Ha. It's okay to come from a small country, but it turns out that you are still a reckless person. Is this the distinguished guest of my Shangguan family?" Shangguan Jinlin faced Shangguan Shu with a stern expression: "Look what you got!"

But the familiar smell of paper books still made him feel peaceful, and the sunlight was like dim candlelight, smearing on the wooden cabinets of the library.

Langya is a powerful country in Jiuzhou; Shangguan is a famous family in the world.

Ye Ziqi has also seen many famous mansions in Hanye City, but none of them can match the grandeur of the Shangguan family. As soon as he walks into the mansion, it is like stepping into a fairy cave. The gardens are quaint and the mountains and rivers are real; there are many houses with carved beams and paintings; people come and go.

The servants are all dressed in fine clothes.

"Second sister, is this the person sent by Baicheng Shuang? Why do you bring everyone to the family library?"

"Bang!" Shangguan Jinlin raised his hand and slammed the door: "What a joke! I'm the one causing the trouble? The rules of my Shangguan family's library are that no one from outside the clan can step into this door without being personally summoned by the clan leader. Second sister, you have forgotten it.

?”

The Shangguan Library is located in it, like a majestic hillside. As soon as he followed the Shangguan sisters and walked in, the noise disappeared immediately, and he knew that the library was equipped with numerous arrays to reduce noise, dehumidify, and avoid fire, and it could not be compared to his own home.

Shangguan Shu said anxiously: "Master Ye, you don't have to listen to this naughty thing's provocation——"

But outside the library, there was a sudden noise.

"It's been a hundred years? So what?"

Fortunately, she immediately noticed that three female doll heads emerged from behind the bookcase, looking timidly at Ye Ziqi.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense." Shangguan Jinlin turned to Ye Ziqi: "You still don't know where the 'distinguished guest' comes from? Since you have entered my Shangguan family, you must give your name before you come out!"

"Simple, go out and have a fight, whoever wins will be justified."

Ye Ziqi had no choice but to let these female dolls listen to him interpret the demon book.

"What are you doing here? Has anyone entered the library?"

"You can ask this after you lose!"

Shangguan Jinlin yelled, and he suddenly got angry. He pulled out a golden lightning bolt from the palm of his hand, and the jumping electric light flew directly towards Ye Ziqi!

There is no time to react and no way to defend.

The electric light actually condensed into a physical chain, locking Ye Ziqi's arm.
Chapter completed!
