Fish swimming around the world

"There is still one missing." The Empress pondered.

Jiang Fan nodded: "This is what surprises me the most. That guy stares at the junction of Qin, Xia, and Wei every day, which is where I originally conducted military exercises, but he doesn't do any construction. What exactly does he want to do..."

However, now that we are near Linjiang Pavilion, eating and drinking is the most important thing now.

However, Xiaoqing and Xiaohe were a little cautious today. They knew very well who the young master was next to him.

"Why, the decisive Qing girl and the lively and smart He girl have all turned into little quails today." Jiang Fan said with a smile.

Xiao Qing and Xiao He didn't dare to speak, but the Empress smiled slightly: "Two good girls, you have helped me. I always have to show something."

Xiaoqing and Xiaohe quickly saluted: "I don't dare."

The empress thought for a while, touched her waist, and took out two pills: "These two pills are beauty pills refined by the alchemist Xu Fu himself. They can keep your appearance for decades, so I give them to you. "

If they wanted to say anything else, the two girls would definitely shirk it, but when they heard this, they couldn't hold back the light in their eyes. They just looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to answer.

Pei Yunjin chuckled and said: "Take it, even I am looking at it with envy, and you can't hide your thoughts."

With the pavilion master's approval, Xiaoqing and Xiaohe couldn't bear it any longer, and quickly thanked them and took it over, feeling extremely happy.

"Okay, don't be happy, hurry up and pass the meal, Xiaolang...His Royal Highness Prince Xiaoyao's stomach is growling."

The empress smiled softly: "Just call him Xiaolang. I am very happy for him to have such a sister."

The three of them were sitting where Zhang Zaifu was, which was on the ninth floor where few people could usually come up.

"On the ninth floor of Linjiang Pavilion, few people visit, and the scenery is indeed unique."

The empress looked down at Canglan and nodded in approval.

Pei Yunjin smiled: "Since Zaifu ascended the building that day, the ninth floor has never been opened again."

Jiang Fan said: "It is true that only a person like Master can appreciate these nine levels of scenery."

But at this moment, a voice sounded from the void outside the pavilion.

"I wonder, is so-and-so qualified?"

The sound was calm and deep, but it also sounded like the buzzing of bells and drums.

Jiang Fan was slightly startled and turned to look outside. He could tell that the sound was coming from that direction. Soon, the river parted from the other side, and a figure stepped across the waves, walking slowly between the breaks.

Jiang Fan couldn't help but be surprised, how wide the Canglan was, yet this man was walking across the river, as if no mountains or rivers could stop him.

He seemed to be walking slowly, but in just a blink of an eye, he crossed the waves and reached the shore.

He was a tall, middle-aged man, and his figure was actually slightly better than that of his brother-in-law. He has a tall and strong figure, his bronze arms are exposed, his thick curly hair is casual and messy, and he wears a large animal skin cloak with damaged edges draped over his shoulders. His face is like a knife and ax carving, with a straight nose and a square mouth. Under the thick black eyebrows are a pair of deep and dark eyes, and the slightly messy beard makes the man look a bit vicissitudes of life.

There were winding stairs in front of him, but he didn't seem to want to take a detour at all, or he just liked to walk in a straight line, so he stepped onto the void. However, his steps did not look like fluctuations of true energy, but more like the air condensing and supporting in violent tremors. Picking up the soles of his feet, he climbed the stairs step by step. Finally, outside the ninth floor of Linjiang Pavilion, he stopped and looked at the three of them indifferently.

There was no trace of true energy on the man's body, but a mountain seemed to appear out of thin air and tower before everyone's eyes, majestic and heavy.

Jiang Fan had never seen such a strange person before, so he couldn't help but stood up slowly: "Your Excellency is..."

The man did not answer, but turned to Pei Yunjin: "Pavilion Master Pei, please come in, may I do it?"

The voice is plain and slightly aged.

Pei Yunjin stood up and looked at the man: "Your Excellency, we are not entertaining guests today."

The man said calmly: "I beg you for three drinks."

Just as Pei Yunjin was about to speak, Jiang Fan gently raised his hand: "Your Excellency, please."

The man glanced at Jiang Fan: "Thank you."

He only said one word, walked up to the ninth floor, and slowly sat down opposite the empress, his eyes calm.

Jiang Fan walked forward slowly: "Sir, what would you like to drink?"

The man said slowly: "Strong liquor."

Jiang Fan smiled: "Then you have come to the right place. Here is the strongest Shaodaozi Liquor in the world. Come on, serve the wine!"

Not long after, an old man wearing a melon cap came up holding a jar of wine.

Jiang Fan's heart suddenly moved. It turned out to be Liu Laojie, the most powerful person in Linjiang Pavilion, above Chai Lao.

Liu Laochao walked slowly to the man's desk. He did not have his usual smiling expression, but looked at the man with an unusually solemn look.

"Old man, how about I personally pour the wine for you..."

But the man shook his head, "Whoever brews the wine will do it."

Liu Lao's pupils shrank slightly, and just when he was about to say something, Jiang Fan stretched out his hand and pressed it on the wine jar and said with a smile: "Old Liu, I'm busy down below. You go first. I'll greet this guest. Speaking of which, I'm also visiting The people from Jiangge are barely half a waiter."

Liu Laochao looked at him with a solemn expression.

Jiang Fan shook his head calmly: "Of course you want my wine."

Liu Laojie was silent for a moment, finally nodded slightly, turned around and walked slowly downstairs.

Jiang Fan raised the wine jar and patted the seal: "Your Excellency, this jar is the oldest one."

The man remained calm and calm, just quietly watching him lift the jar, and the crystal wine drew a long line and poured into the bowl, and countless hops floated up.

After filling the bowl, the man slowly picked it up and drank it in three sips.

Still speechless, Jiang Fan didn't speak either. He filled up the wine again and the man drank again, the same three sips.

The third time he was full of wine, the third time he drank it all. He only had three sips each time, no more, no less, not too hasty or slow.

After drinking three bowls, Jiang Fan still wanted to pour more. The man shook his head slightly.

"That's enough."

Jiang Fan paused slightly and put down the jar.

The man said slowly: "No money."

Jiang Fan smiled: "I'll invite you."

The man shook his head: "The only person I owe in this life is unpaid. Three bowls of wine, three punches for you."

Jiang Fan was stunned: "What? I treat you to a drink and you still beat me?"

Before he finished speaking, the man turned around involuntarily, and the man's fist hit his lower back at some point.

"One punch, breaking the barrier."

Jiang Fan suddenly felt a shock in his lower back, and a strange force seemed to hit the snowy mountain in his back from outside. The majestic snowy mountain trembled for a while, and all the ice and snow that seemed to have been covering it for a long time shattered. The strange energy spread from the snowy mountain to his whole body. Every cell seemed to be extremely stimulated, and they suddenly burst into joy. Jiang Fan felt as if an inexplicable shackle had been broken through his body.

The strange and extremely comfortable feeling made him almost moan.

Pei Yunjin didn't know why and was shocked. Just as he was about to stand up, the empress held his wrist down.

During this process, the empress just watched quietly.

After a moment, Jiang Fan turned around again for some reason, and then heard the man's voice: "One punch, it's the end."

The next moment, another punch hit his abdomen. Jiang Fan felt as if a comet rushed into the sea of ​​​​qi, constantly expanding and bombarding it, as if it was opening up a mountain and sea, then quickly contracted, and then soared up from the lower dantian, In the process of penetrating the dantian, Jiang Fan felt that every cell was trembling, as if being struck by an extremely subtle force and emitting resonance. Eventually, the trembling feeling dissipated, and the comet finally disappeared, but he was shocked to find that there seemed to be an extra mass of something in his body, majestic and thick.
