After they left, Zhou Chen found Butler Lu and asked him to buy some low-quality jade and prepare to start carving mahjong.
With his current skills, carving a pair of mahjong was naturally an easy task and could be completed before evening.
These days, Zhou Chen will go to Xie Mansion's Snow Cottage in the evenings because Mei Changsu was assassinated a few days ago. He knows that the assassination of Mei Changsu was just a test by Xie Yu. Next, Xie Yu will use his own troops to attack Xue Lu.
He wanted to assassinate Mei Changsu, so he would go there secretly in the past few days just to prevent any accidents.
When he arrived at the snow house, Zhou Chen found that besides Mei Changsu and Fei Liu, there was another breathing sound.
He walked into Mei Changsu's room naturally. Mei Changsu was not surprised and was already waiting for Zhou Chen.
"Son."
Li Gang saw Zhou Chen and said respectfully.
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Li Gang, you are finally here, your movements are a bit slow."
Li Gang said: "I have been here a long time ago, but the sect master said that Xie's residence was inconvenient, so I stayed outside. Recently, the sect master felt that Xie Yu was about to take action, so he allowed me to come. After all, you can't be here all the time, sir."
Stay with the sect master."
With Zhou Chen here, they wouldn't worry at all, but he also knew that Zhou Chen also had his own things to do and couldn't follow Mei Changsu all the time like Fei Liu.
"In terms of loyalty, it has to be you guys."
Zhou Chen felt that Li Gang and Zhen Ping were really loyal to Mei Changsu. Even though the Red Flame Army was destroyed, they still did not leave Mei Changsu, but continued to serve Mei Changsu for twelve years.
Years ago, I never thought about myself.
Who wouldn’t want to have such a loyal subordinate?
Mei Changsu poured tea for Zhou Chen: "Today is a little later than yesterday. Did something happen?"
"It's okay, it's just that Yujin and the others went to my place again today. I promised to make a board game for them, and I've been working on it this afternoon."
"Board game? It sounds interesting. Is it similar to Go?" Mei Changsu also became somewhat interested.
Zhou Chen said: "It's not the same. It requires four people. If you are free tomorrow, you can go there. It will be very interesting."
He is not a gambling person, but he can also play mahjong. Mahjong is very interesting and more interesting than most other entertainments in this era. He believes that once the word spreads, mahjong will definitely spread quickly all over the world.
"Okay, then I'll go take a look tomorrow."
When he was bored, Mei Changsu asked Fei Liu to take out the Go game and started playing against Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen has traveled through many worlds and has played Go a lot, but his level is indeed much lower than that of Mei Changsu. Even after playing with Mei Changsu for many years, he still loses more than he wins even if he tries his best.
Even with his strong character, he had to admit that he couldn't beat Mei Changsu at this point.
He couldn't play Go, but Mei Changsu was no match for the backgammon he 'invented'.
The game of chess was not over yet, Zhou Chen was about to make a move, when suddenly his hand movements stopped.
Li Gang, who was sitting on the sidelines and watching, saw that Zhou Chen had stopped moving and asked curiously: "Master, why don't you stand down? Do you want to admit defeat to the sect leader?"
Zhou Chen flicked the chess piece on his head with his backhand: "You still have the nerve to ridicule me? Why don't you come and play with me?"
Li Gang shook his head like a rattle, he couldn't win against Zhou Chen, and even if he could win, he wouldn't dare to win.
But he still remembered the tragic moment a few years ago when he outmaneuvered Zhou Chen in chess and was then trained in martial arts by Zhou Chen for a day. Since then, he never dared to play chess with Zhou Chen again.
While he was talking, Fei Liu suddenly rushed out of the room, leaving Li Gang stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing and stood up in an instant.
Zhou Chen rolled his eyes at him: "After so many years, you haven't made any progress at all. It seems that without my whipping, your martial arts will be the same in this life."
Li Gang smiled and said: "Master, my martial arts talent is not as good as Zhen Ping's. I think you should train him. Anyway, he has been quite crazy recently and feels that his swordsmanship is worse than yours. I think Master must give him a lesson."
"Stop sowing discord."
The sound of fighting outside has already started. From the sound, you can tell that there are many people. Feiliu is fighting against many, but he is not moving quickly.
Zhou Chen listened to the voice and suddenly said: "Xiao Shu, do you think I should take some time recently to challenge Zhuo Dingfeng of Tianquan Villa as a Rakshasa?"
Mei Changsu said: "There's no need. He should be no longer your opponent now, and Zhuo Dingfeng is still of great use to our plan, so don't make matters worse."
The fighting outside continued, but the position suddenly changed, and then another group of people rushed here, and then they heard a familiar voice.
"Who are you? How dare you break into Xie's mansion at night?"
When Mei Changsu heard this voice, he sighed: "Jing Rui is such a good boy. If I didn't have no choice, I really don't want to hurt him."
"Your plan is indeed a bit cruel to him."
Before Zhou Chen finished speaking, Li Gang said angrily: "Then how cruel was Xie Yu to Lin Shuai and the 70,000 Red Flame Army? Although this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Xiao himself, there are some things we have no choice about.
, Mr. Xiao also has no choice."
Mei Chang Su Moran, he also thought of the battle of Meiling twelve years ago. Yes, they had no choice, so he still made such a choice even though he knew Jingrui's temperament, because that
is the best opportunity.
After a while, an assassin rushed in, but he was killed by Li Gang before he even took a few steps closer.
Xiao Jingrui hurriedly rushed into the room, and then saw the assassin who fell to the ground, Li Gang standing, Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu sitting.
"Master Li, Brother Su, Brother Yu, you are here too."
Zhou Chen stood up and said, "Jing Rui, I came to see Brother Su to play chess tonight, but I didn't expect to encounter this scene."
Xiao Jingrui looked ashamed and said apologetically: "Brother Su, I'm really sorry."
Mei Changsu shook his head and said, "I'm fine, Jingrui, you don't have to blame yourself."
But how could Xiao Jingrui not blame himself? Mei Changsu was a guest he invited, but he was assassinated in their mansion. Thinking about it, he felt scared.
Xiao Jingrui knelt down and was about to reveal the assassin's true identity. Mei Changsu wanted to stop him, but Xiao Jingrui, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, resolutely unveiled the mask.
When he saw the true face at this moment, his face suddenly became very ugly, because he recognized the assassin.
Li Gang made another stab at this time: "Young Master Xiao should know him, right?"
Xiao Jingrui's pupils tightened and he murmured: "He is one of my father's bodyguards."
Mei Changsu couldn't bear it and walked to the door, not wanting Xiao Jingrui to see his expression.
"Jing Rui, I didn't expect you to come back to see me so late. You shouldn't have come."
Xiao Jingrui said: "I just suddenly felt a little uneasy, so I wanted to come over and have a look. Who knows..."
Mei Changsu said: "It's quiet now outside."
Li Gang said in a sarcastic tone: "In such a huge Marquis Mansion, there was so much noise in the middle of the night, and it seems that not even a single person was heard."
Xiao Jingrui was already suspicious, but Li Gang's words made him more sure of his suspicions. Yes, how could no one notice such a huge movement just now?
"Brother Su..."
"Jing Rui, come in with me and talk about it later."
Mei Changsu took Xiao Jingrui to the back room, ready to comfort Xiao Jingrui.
Seeing Xiao Jingrui's appearance, Zhou Chen couldn't bear it, so he gently patted Xiao Jingrui's shoulder.
"Jing Rui, don't think so much. This matter has nothing to do with you. I know who you are. If you really can't get over it, just go to me and I'll have a good drink with you."
After saying this, he stood up and left. There was no accident, so there was no need for him to stay.
Xiao Jingrui was in a bad mood, but he still said gratefully: "Brother Yu, thank you."
"We are friends, there is no need to talk about this, let's go."
Zhou Chen said goodbye and then left Xie's Mansion.
Xiao Jingrui sat in the position where Zhou Chen had just been, looking at the charcoal fire in front of him with blurred eyes, his mood not calming down for a long time.
When Zhou Chen returned home, he saw Gong Yu waiting for him. As soon as he came in, Gong Yu dusted off the snow on his body.
"Didn't I say you don't have to wait for me?"
Gong Yu said softly: "I saw it was snowing outside, and I was worried that the young master would be cold when he came back, so I lit a brazier in the room."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Have you forgotten what kind of internal skills I practice? I have perfected the Pure Yang Jue, do you think I will be afraid of the cold?"
Chunyang Jue even cured his cold illness, so naturally he would not be afraid of the cold outside.
Of course Gong Yu knew about this, but she was still used to worrying about Zhou Chen, so she naturally did these things for Zhou Chen.
