It’s almost noon.

Wu Zhao, who was only seventeen years old, was sitting quietly by the window, accompanied by gusts of cold wind and heavy snow, with his head hanging down, combing the silver-gray down of the rabbit with a comb.

Due to the alternation of hot and cold weather conditions, the willows outside the city are already rotting when catkins should be flying.

But the heavy snow will not stop, and on average it will snow once every day, and the time is not fixed.

If it's okay during the day, people are working, and sometimes you won't feel the cold when you're busy.

But if it is late at night, many people will be woken up by the cold.

Although there are charcoal mines outside the city, the imperial court explicitly stipulates that people are not allowed to use charcoal for heating. After all, charcoal is highly toxic.

Therefore, people can only find other ways.

There are no more catkins, so people can only use dead grass and shabby clothes to sew pajamas.

But these are not as warm as catkins after all.

Fortunately, the Imperial City Secretary sent foxes and hares from door to door yesterday, so the young women in the city have new jobs today.

In their spare time, they used combs to comb foxes and hares in order to comb out some down and stuff it into their pajamas.

These hares and foxes seemed to have been frightened out of their courage. They were trembling all day long and did not resist.

At this moment, Yang, who had delivered lunch to the four brothers of the Wu family, opened the door and walked in, her face full of uncontrollable joy and smile.

When Wu Fu raised his head after hearing the sound, he heard Yang smiling and asking: "Jue'er, who do you think is here?"

Wu Fu thought for a moment and then asked with a smile: "Could it be Master Zhuge?"

When Yang smiled and nodded, Zhuge Liang also appeared in front of the door wearing a green shirt.

He shook his feather fan lightly and held his hands in his arms with a smile.

"The wife of the Wu family."

Wu Fu quickly put the rabbit in his arms on the ground and saluted Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang smiled calmly and said: "Some time ago, I promised to send you to the palace, and today is the day to fulfill the promise."

When Wu Fu, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, heard this, he immediately hugged Yang who came to her side, and started giving instructions with red eyes.

"Mother, when your child is not with you, you should pay attention to your health."

Yang's eyes couldn't help but heat up when she heard this, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.

She wiped her tears with her sleeves and nodded.

Then he pushed Wu Fu in front of the dressing table and said, "Sit down and let me comb your hair again. I don't know if I will have another chance in the future."

Zhuge Liang didn't rush him, he just stood quietly in front of the door and waited.

At this time, an auxiliary soldier walked up to him and reported in a low voice: "Sir, the commander of the Demon Suppression Department and the Qianhu Shangguan of the Imperial City Department has something important to ask of you."

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "You stay here until the Wu family's wife finishes dressing up, then ask her to wait for a while."

"Yes!"

The auxiliary army immediately bowed and accepted the order.

Zhuge Liang nodded lightly and rushed to Waiguocheng in a sedan chair.

When he arrived at Waiguo City, he saw Shangguan Haitang standing in front of the wooden house.

"Shangguan commander."

"Lord Zhuge."

After the two met, Shangguan Haitang handed Chen Qingzhi's urgent note to Zhuge Liang and told him Chu Hao's words.

After Zhuge Liang read the contents of the letter, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and thought to himself: "That General Chen really made a name for himself without making a fuss. When he comes back, I have to find an opportunity to ask about the details of this battle."

He was thinking about this in his mind, but on the surface he handed over his hand and said: "Thank you for your help, Shangguan. I will go to Qianqing Palace to see the emperor."

Shangguan Haitang immediately turned around and left.

At the same time, in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, Ao Guang was lying on the crystal couch with his eyes half closed. He was enjoying the massage from the Clam Girl while listening to Ao Wu's report.

When it finished speaking, Ao Guang said calmly without opening his eyes: "I have also heard about the monkey on Tangting Mountain."

"It was the former disciple of the Four Wastes Star Lord. It has been staying in Tangting Mountain for thousands of years. It has not even killed an ant. It only lives by eating fruits. It is also the only one in the Three Realms who is not involved in cause and effect. Immortal, even the five turbid tribulations have no effect on it."

"Now as long as the immortals from the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and the Xun Dynasty who have closed their doors to death are not born, no one will dare to provoke it."

"Besides, it never kills, it just lets people listen to music."

"So, you don't have to worry about that man from Da Gan. He will not starve to death if he stays on Tangting Mountain, and he might even get some benefits."

"But regarding this matter, I have to explain it to Da Qian both emotionally and rationally."

"What's more, this is the first time the Dragon Summoning Bell is used. If it is not handled well, it may affect the subsequent alliance."

When he said this, Ao Guang opened his eyes and ordered: "Let's do this. You put hundreds of thousands of kilograms of empty snails in storage boxes and send them to the shore, and explain this to Da Qian."

"Yes!"

Ao Wu immediately accepted the order and left.

On Tangting Mountain, Cao Zhengchun was sitting on a stone with a numb face.

In front of him, an old white ape that was ten feet tall was dancing with excitement and singing the song "Yi Yi Ya Ya".

It didn't seem to be tired at all. After singing for three hours, it stopped and stroked its beard.

After that, it took Cao Zhengchun to a cave.

There are many red fruits in the cave.

The old ape pointed at the fruits and said: "Guests, please see, this fruit is called Fengguo. It has the effect of cleansing the marrow and healing wounds. If you eat 10,000 of them, you can extend your life by three months."

After saying that, he said with a face full of vicissitudes of life: "I have eaten this fruit for three thousand and four hundred years."

Cao Zhengchun nodded slightly and said subconsciously: "Could this fruit tree be grown by gold?"

"Hahahahaha!"

After hearing this, the old ape's face lit up and said, "I didn't expect that our guest would be so predestined with the old man."

Cao Zhengchun's eyes twitched and said: "Don't worry, old man, our family will continue to listen to music, but you need to answer our question."

The old ape nodded and said: "That is, that is."

"This fruit tree does require gold to grow. In other words, it can be planted with any metal and does not require watering. Because among the five elements, metal belongs to water."

"But only fruits grown from gold can cleanse the marrow and prolong life. Fruits grown from other metals can only quench hunger and thirst."

When Cao Zhengchun nodded slowly, the old ape also smiled and said: "Guests, please rest early. I will go back tonight to prepare more music."

Then he turned and left.

……

In the human world, ripples suddenly appeared over the originally peaceful Lanruo Temple.

Immediately afterwards, Yan Chixia's sword flew out, and on the other sword behind him was the ghost king Nine-tailed Fox with scars all over his body.

After Yan Chixia sent her into a courtyard, she immediately turned around and prepared to take off.

The Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox knelt on the ground, lowered his head and asked: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Yan Chixia looked up at the gloomy night sky, and said with a complicated expression: "Leave Daqian, I am already a member of Daqian Town Demon Division, and when we meet again in the future, the person talking to you will not be

It’s me, but this sword!”

After saying that, Yu Jian flew high in the sky and penetrated through the Yin and Yang node again.

If he didn't go back, Feng Qingtian wouldn't be able to deal with the tens of thousands of Yin soldiers by himself.

The Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox watched Yan Chixia leave without any regret, and suddenly started crying silently.
