Chapter 35 Chapter 1 Peerless Beauty

Ji Yanran's building was built of white stone, hidden among the flowers and trees, with a quaint form, like a Penglai pavilion in a fairyland, in which lived beautiful immortals. Stepping up the stone steps to the stairs, there is an exquisite porch for guests to place clothes and weapons inside the door. Two beautiful maidservants have been waiting here, serving attentively. Tan Bang moved closer to Xiang Shaolong's ear and said, "Ji Talent doesn't like someone bringing a sword into her Xiu Pavilion." Xiang Shaolong nodded to show that he knew, thinking to himself that this talented woman is really arrogant, knowing that there are distinguished guests like Lord Xinling visiting, she still cannot afford to lie down, and the servant girl dare not wake her up, and no one is allowed to bring a sword in building.But when he thought about it, he felt that the airs were well placed, because when he asked himself, he had to admit that a man is a cheap bone, and the harder it is to get a woman, the more precious he is. At this moment, even he is eager to see how beautiful she is. To what extent.

Those two pretty maids had a special affection for Xiang Shaolong, and they served him attentively, carefully wiping the dust off his clothes, and wiped his face with wet wipes. After everything was settled, the four of them entered the hall. After entering the door, a loud and crisp voice shouted beside Xiang Shaolong: "The honored guest is here! The honored guest is here!" Xiang Shaolong was startled and stunned, followed the sound and couldn't help laughing, it turned out to be a talking parrot standing on the shelf. The two beautiful maidservants obviously doted on it very much, smiling coquettishly and feeding this interesting animal with grain.

Xiang Shaolong looked around. The hall is decorated elegantly and beautifully. The most distinctive feature is that there are no floor mats, but several groups of square and low couches. The hall is filled with exotic plants, as if part of the garden outside has been brought in. One of the large walls is hung with a huge silk painting of ladies and gentlemen, lightly applied and lightly colored, elegant and elegant, which appropriately sets off the talent and temperament of the hostess. At this time, there were three groups of four groups of couches in the hall, each group ranging from two to six people, and more than ten people were talking in low voices, as if they were afraid of waking up the hostess from her nap.

Lord Xinling led the way into the hall, and immediately more than half of the people stood up and greeted the number two person in the Wei Kingdom. The others obviously met Lord Xinling for the first time. Stand up and salute. Xiang Shaolong noticed a few of them at a glance. Especially the group of four on the left by the window, three of them were dressed as warriors, and they had an extraordinary bearing, but what caught his attention most was their hustle and bustle; He Xiang Shaolong was a little taller, with extremely thick hands and feet, long hair shawl, wearing a silver forehead band, thick face, broad shoulders, eyes like copper bells, with a sinister and cunning look, majestic appearance, He exudes an evil and frightening charm.

The other two warriors beside him were both tyrannical and fierce, but standing next to him, they were immediately compared.What's even more strange is that all three of them had burn marks on their hands. Another person who attracted him was the group of six figures on the right dressed as scribes. One of them was tall, with a strange appearance, deep-set eyes, shining with the light of a wise man, and looked like a fairy. The last group consisted of only two people. The shorter one had an ordinary appearance. Judging from his attire, one could tell that he was not from Wei, but he didn't know what country he was a guest from. However, to meet Ji Yanran here, he must be a person of some status. up.

Mr. Xinling first greeted the group of six on the right, and said to the man with a strange personality: "We just mentioned Mr. Zou, but we didn't expect to see you right away." He waved to Xiang Shaolong and said, "Shaolong came to see you." Mr. Zou Yan who is proficient in telepathy between heaven and man." Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that this is the contemporary master of metaphysics famous for his "Five Virtues Always Theory".Just as he was about to go forward to meet him, a deep and strong voice came from the left: "Young Master Wuji, is this brother Xiang Shaolong, a former imperial swordsman from Zhao Kingdom?"

Xiang Shaolong's heart trembled, according to his reputation, the speaker was the warrior who appeared to be a demon king. Lord Xinling obviously didn't know this person either, he said in surprise: "This strong man..." It seems that the Wei people who introduced these three warriors here to meet Ji Yanran stepped forward and respectfully said: "Young Master Feng Zhi, a guest of Lord Longyang's sect, this is Mr. Wei Mou, who is famous for his wisdom and bravery in Qi, on the right The man on the left is Ning Chong, and the one on the left is Zheng Le, both of whom are famous warriors in Qi State, and Mr. Wei's personal guard."

Both Lord Xinling and Xiang Shaolong were stunned, they never thought that this murderous man would be so relentless, he openly chased after Daliang, he had malicious intentions, obviously Lord Longyang was taking care of him, King Wei was behind him, no wonder it was so It's fierce and overbearing. When Xiang Shaolong felt a severe headache, Xiao Wei Mou strode forward, saluted Lord Xinling, then moved in front of Xiang Shaolong, stretched out his hand and said, "I have heard for a long time that Brother Xiang is very good at swordsmanship, and I will definitely learn from him if I have the opportunity. .”

Xiang Shaolong knew that he wanted to compete with him, so he reached out to shake his hand helplessly. Xiao Wei Mou showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and with a firm grip, Xiang Shaolong's hand suddenly seemed to be locked by an iron hoop, and it was still tightening. Xiang Shaolong felt stunned in his heart, even though he managed to resist it with strength, he still felt the pain of splitting his spine, knowing that the opponent's hand strength was far superior to his own. Fortunately, he had great endurance and didn't make a fool of himself on the spot. He smiled and said, "Did Mr. Wei go through a fire recently? Why are there burn marks on both hands?"

Crazy anger flashed in Xiao Wei Mou's eyes, he strengthened his grip, and said coldly: "It's just some foolish tricks, it's nothing, and those who mess with these little things can only succeed for a while, and sooner or later they will be torn apart by Xiao Mou." into pieces." The strong smell of gunpowder, even Zou Yan and others can clearly feel it, knowing that something very unpleasant must have happened between the two of them. Xiang Shaolong suffered from his astonishing strength. Xiao Wei Mou originally wanted to crush his finger bones on the spot, so as to teach him not to use a sword in the future.But after trying Xiang Shaolong's strength, he knew that it was impossible to have such an ideal effect.With a sneer, he let go of his hand and stepped back.

His two subordinates stared at Xiang Shaolong, shooting out deep hatred, it can be seen that the wildfire burned them quite badly. Lord Xinling winked at Xiang Shaolong, and introduced to him the Wei people next to Zou Yan, all of whom were celebrities and high officials of the Wei state. It can be seen that Zou Yan is very popular with the Wei people. After the introduction, Mr. Xinling's eyes fell on the Wei people in the remaining group, and he said with a smile, "This is the first time I have met Mr. Zhang Fengchang here." Outside the elves, an ordinary-looking human said: "This is..." Zhang Fengchang said with a smile: "This is Mr. Han Fei from South Korea. This time I'm taking credit for him, because Ms. Ji was full of praise after reading Mr. Han's "Say Difficulty". Feng Chang has to accompany Mr. Han to come here to see Miss." Lord Xinling and the others were all moved, they never expected to meet this group of people with great achievements in legalism and elegant literary talents.But it's a bit unpleasant, I can't guess that this person is so inconspicuous in appearance. Han Feixian, who has been passed down through the ages, was not good at communication and speech. He smiled awkwardly and bowed slightly, which was regarded as a greeting. The two maidservants hurriedly asked Mr. Xinling to sit down on a set of low couches opposite Han Fei and the two of them. At this time, only a couch under the giant painting of ladies was vacant, presumably it should be the seat of Talented Lady Ji. Xiang Shaolong leaned on the couch like everyone else, eating and drinking the snacks and tea served by the maid, but his heart was in chaos. As soon as Xiao Wei Mou arrived, the situation became much more complicated. Moreover, this person's arm strength is amazing, and his body is as solid as a copper wall and an iron wall. Although he is conceited, he may not be his opponent.If he joins forces with Lord Longyang, the local snake, and Lord Xinling harbors evil intentions towards him, this trip will be very unfortunate. While thinking about it, Lord Xinling asked Han Feizi: "Young Master Han is coming to our country this time, what do you need to do? Please tell me and see if Wuji can help you?" Han Fei said: "This time... Hey! This time Han Fei is ordered by my king to... come to your country to borrow food." Xiang Shaolong was surprised, he didn't expect that Han Fei was stuttering, not fluent, and he couldn't express his meaning, he didn't know how to take the opportunity to state his interests and point out why Wei Guo had to lend food to South Korea. Lord Xinling really frowned and said: "I see, how much food does your country need to borrow?" Han Fei said coldly: "Ten thousand stones!" There was nothing else to say. Lord Xinling was of course unmoved, he smiled slightly and did not speak again. Zou Yanyang said in a loud voice: "The extreme of prosperity must decline, the extreme of decline must prosper, and the five virtues alternate. In fact, there are early signs of the severe drought in South Korea. Five years ago, Zou saw a comet falling into the territory of South Korea and asserted that there must be natural and man-made disasters. It’s not a good test.” Han Feizi frowned, obviously displeased, and didn't believe Zou Yan's words, but other people around Zou Yan echoed them. On the opposite side, Xiao Wei Mou, who is also from Qi with Zou Yan, laughed and said: "Mr. Zou is deeply aware of tomorrow. Today, he will rule the seven kingdoms. Can you explain the destiny in detail, so as to break the barrier?" Zou Yan smiled slightly, and was about to answer, when the ring ring sounded, a stunning beauty, supported by four maidservants, stepped into the hall from the inside. Xiang Shaolong looked at it quickly, his mind was jolted, and a feeling of astonishment and shock came over him. I saw a beautiful woman with firm skin, bright and radiant face, who was like a fairy descending to the earth, surrounded by those pretty maids, she was approaching like a moon with stars, and everyone was fascinated by her, and their souls were fascinated by her. fly outside. She wears a ponytail on her head, which is towering and falling sideways, matching her slender and graceful figure, slender waist, slender jade necklace, and pure white skin, which makes her feel more charming and glamorous when reflected. The eyes are deep and black, and the watery light shines when you look around, no wonder the fame is spread far and wide, it is really touching. She was wearing a long gown of blue and white on a white ground. With her light, graceful, and erratic gait, the wide sleeves were opened and closed to cover up, which further brought out her beautiful appearance with thousands of demeanors. The external beauty of bright white teeth and the radiant internal beauty blend together to form a picture of beauty, Xiang Shaolong is like entering a fairyland, and he doesn't know where the world is. With Wu Tingfang's beauty, she is also three points inferior in style, which shows how attractive she is. Until Ji Yanran leaned against the high cushion of the middle couch with her graceful posture and relaxed attitude, her charming charm became even more incredible. Her half-sitting, half-lying charming posture is already extremely touching, not to mention when she put her legs on the couch, a section of white, flawless, elastic and slender feet were exposed under the robe, which made Xiang Shao Long just wanted to climb onto the couch and press her under him, so as to explore her exquisite jade body and inhale her orchid-like body fragrance. After Ji Yanran sat down, she leaned her jade face and said with a smile: "Yanran is sleepy, everyone has been waiting for a long time!" Xiang Shaolong came to his senses and looked at everyone, no matter whether it was Lord Xinling, Zou Yan, Han Fei or Xiao Wei Mou, they all had expressions of color and soul, and they had even less self-control than himself. When everyone was busy expressing that they had nothing to do with each other, Ji Yanran's jet-black eyes, shining like jewels, floated over to Xiang Shaolong, spun around, and then floated to Xiao Wei Mou's seat, sizing everyone up deeply, Finally, he looked at Han Fei, flashed his happy face, and said happily, "Is this Mr. Han Fei?" Both Xiang Shaolong and Xiao Wei Mou were greatly disappointed, and Ji Yanran was obviously more interested in Han Fei than in them. Han Fei's face was flushed, and he said nervously: "This is Han Fei." Ji Yanran's pretty eyes lit up, and she said joyfully: "After reading the master's masterpiece, it is indeed something that no one has published before, and Yanran admires it so much." Xiang Shaolong was very annoyed, this Han Fei was unattractive in appearance, but Ji Yanran looked at him differently.Obviously, this woman puts more emphasis on the connotation of a person. If it is about writing articles and gaining insights, compared to Han Fei, she is like the difference between a naive college student and a Nobel Prize winner. However, he also felt a little relieved, because he couldn't protect himself at the moment, no matter how attractive Ji Yanran was, he had to put away his gentlemanly attitude, lest he couldn't handle it even more. Han Fei was appreciated by the beauties, and he didn't know what to do. He didn't even know where to put his hands properly. At this time, Ji Yanran seemed to be the only one in Han Fei's eyes, and said softly: "Mr. uses the theory of governing the country by combining 'law', 'technique', and 'power', and puts forward that 'the world will change, and things will change, and the law must be changed'. It really hits the spotlight and is thought-provoking.” Han Fei was even more at a loss, and he couldn't help but nod, making people feel sorry for him. Xiang Shaolong secretly thought that if he transplanted his insights into his own brain, maybe he could kiss Xiangze tonight. Zou Yan let out a long laugh, and after attracting the attention of Ji Yanran and everyone else, he said confidently: "Mr. Han's insight will definitely be used by your king. Why has your country never seen any improvement in its struggle for supremacy? ?” Xiang Shaolong cursed inwardly, it was too much for Zou Yan to expose Han Fei's scar so sharply. A look of indignation appeared on Han Fei's face, but he was even more speechless. Ji Yanran obviously loved Han Fei's talent, so she helped him out and said, "Where there are wise men, there must also be wise masters. Didn't Shang Yang, the guard, achieve nothing in the Wei state? But in the few years of Qin Dynasty, he has made remarkable achievements. Is Yan Ran right?" Xiang Shaolong praised in his heart that this woman is really extraordinary, just when Zou Yan thought that Zou Yan had no words to answer, Zou Yan smiled slightly and said: "Miss's words are of course very reasonable, but the focus is still on personnel matters, don't you know There is the way of heaven above human affairs, and Shang Yang only makes things happen according to the situation, and cannot escape the control of the circulation of the five virtues. Only those who understand the principle of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and restraint can grasp the operation of the way of heaven." Han Fei snorted coldly, and spoke fluently: "Mr. Zou's words... say... nothingness, then... then should we... just sit and listen to the destiny without doing anything?" These few words can be said to be reasonable, but if he stammered them out, he always felt that they were not convincing enough. Zou Yan is an eloquent man, he laughed and said: "Of course not. As long as we can grasp the way of heaven, we can predict human affairs, and know the goal and direction of our efforts. For example, digging a well, only knowing where the water source is, will not waste our efforts." Han Fei blushed with anger, but couldn't find anything to refute, or didn't know how to express it.Xiang Shaolong felt great sympathy for him, wishing he could get a pen and paper to let him express his opinion. The applause sounded, and it turned out that Xiao Wei Mou applauded in agreement. Ji Yanran looked at Xiao Wei Mou, frowned and said, "This is..." Xiao Wei Mou puffed up his chest, like a beast courting a mate, and responded loudly: "I am Qi Guo Xiao Wei Mou, I wonder if Miss has heard of it?" Ji Yanran suddenly said: "So it was Mr. Wei who advocated learning from animals, may I ask if people are no different from animals, wouldn't the world immediately be in chaos?" Xiao Wei Mou got this opportunity to show his knowledge to this beautiful woman, so he would not let it go, and smiled happily: "Miss lives in the city, of course she doesn't understand the world of animals. Xiao has been learning from nature for many years, observing birds and birds Living life, draw the inference that only by conforming to nature can one not betray God, and enjoy the gift of life under the greater laws of nature. If you suppress yourself by force, it is useless and harmful, and it will only make people a hypocritical person who is inconsistent inside and outside. only." Ji Yanran looked at him deeply, showing a thoughtful expression.Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but feel bad. This beauty is obviously full of curiosity and is easily attracted by novel theories. If Wei Mou got her, even he would feel sad and worthless, so he couldn't help saying: "Renhe Why are animals the same? Even though different animals have different ways of life.” Xiao Wei Mou said with a sneer: "The way of life can be different, but the nature will not be different." How could Xiang Shaolong be polite to him, staring at him with a smile: "The difference between human beings and beasts is that they are not driven by instinct and desire; they can even give up their own precious lives for greater ideals. The beasts land on all fours, But we can stand up, our hands become more delicate and dexterous because we don't have to walk, and we can make this house and all the supplies, do animals have this ability?" Xiaowei Mouxian once did some research on this issue, and mocked: "You are talking about ability, not essence. Can birds fly, but people can fly? Fish can live under water, and people can live under water." live?" Xiang Shaolong is by no means a theoretician, but at this time, he was riding a tiger and insisted: "What I'm talking about is the essence. Because the structure of the human brain is different from that of animals, human beings can think and reflect. In addition to basic necessities, they also need food and clothing. Spiritual life; but animals are all for survival, sleep when they are full, and mate when the time comes; animals are dazed and passive in nature, but humans can fight against and overcome nature. This is because humans have different essences, Knowing how to progress and develop puts them above the beasts." Xiang Shaolong's not-so-brilliant theory is known to everyone in the 21st century, but to people of this era, it is very novel, which made Ji Yanran and others look at him with admiration immediately. Xiao Wei Mou obviously didn't think about this question, and said angrily, "What's the difference? I've seen all the human brains and animal brains. It's not just bone shells and meat sauce!" Xiang Shaolong laughed and said, "You're telling the biggest difference between humans and animals. Will animals study the difference between their brains and human brains?" Xiao Wei Mou was at a loss for words for a moment, his eyes flickered fiercely, wishing he could tear Xiang Shaolong apart. Although Zou Yan does not agree with Xiaowei Mou's theory that people should learn how to indulge like animals.But now that everyone is from Qi, he also wanted to teach Xiang Shaolong how to be embarrassed before Ji Yanran, and said, "Brother Xiang just said that the difference between humans and animals is because we can stand up, the orangutan and the ape You can stand and walk, so how can you explain it?" Xiang Shaolong was stunned for a while, thinking to himself that he would never be able to explain to them what the theory of evolution is, but fortunately, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: "Differentiation is still the structure of the brain." He touched his forehead and said: "Apes don't have foreheads like ours. , so their attention can only be focused on the present moment, and they will not think about tomorrow, but we can arrange and plan for tomorrow's events or even one year or ten years later." In fact, Xiang Shaolong's thoughts and rhetoric are quite messy, but everyone knows that orangutans do not have foreheads, so they all think he has some reason. Ji Yanran applauded and smiled coquettishly: "It's really brilliant, I haven't had such an interesting debate here for a long time." Her beautiful eyes drifted towards Xiang Shaolong, and she said with a sweet smile: "This gentleman, I'm sorry that Yanran doesn't know who you are yet!" Xiang Shaolong was stunned for a moment, complaining in his heart, he couldn't help but make nonsense for a while, don't teach her to fall in love with him.
