Finally returned to Shentu City, and now that he is back again, Ye Lu does feel as if he is in another world.
Those things are in the past.
Although I still feel a little panic every time I think about them, they are indeed in the past.
It was a sunny day, and Mai Tang took Ye Lu to the racecourse of the City Lord's Mansion.
The horses raised in the city lord's mansion are all here, and it is the farthest place from Shen Tuyi's residence.
The horses stood in a row, their hair shiny and shiny, as if they had been waxed.
There are also some unique manes, very chic and handsome.
The racecourse in front is also very large, and you can ride a horse for a few laps in this field.
"This kind of horse is unique to Liaocheng.
Liaocheng is located in a highland, so the breeds of horses are very good."
The tall horse looks very majestic, and its mane is smooth and elegant.
This is the handsome guy among horses.
Ye Lu nodded, "No wonder it looks different from other horses."
The bloodline is different.
"This horse is very expensive, and sometimes even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, because it is not easy to breed one."
Mai Tang seemed to know the ropes.
"Why is it not easy" to reproduce?
It's not much more.
"This horse's bloodline is very pure.
The method of purity is inbreeding.
The parents of this horse may be brother and sister, father and daughter, or mother and son."
Mai Tang explained that only in this way can a purebred horse be bred.
Come.
"I see, sometimes inbreeding is not without its benefits, but the chance is smaller and the chance of problems is greater.
But if there are no problems, then this horse will definitely be the best among horses."
This and Ren It seems to be similar.
I remember reading a book before about the ancient royal family on the other side of the earth.
In order to ensure the purity of the royal bloodline, they married close relatives and never entered into marriage alliances with outsiders.
"This horse has a great background.
It is said that it was paid tribute by foreigners from outside the northern pass.
It seems that the four cities of Shentu were hit by famine and the taxes could not be paid, so the emperor gave this horse to the lord of Shentu City."
Mai Tang said.
If you don’t believe this statement, there may be other tricks.
Ye Lu also pouted, she didn't believe she couldn't pay the tax.
"But my favorite is this horse.
It was given to Lord Shentu by Young Master Zhu.
This horse has a gentle temperament and is especially suitable for people who are just learning to ride a horse."
A bay red horse that looks very well-behaved.
"Yes, the color is good.
Moreover, the grass must be very good, and the hair is smooth and shiny."
Ye Lu nodded, seeing that the horse's frame also has a gentle temperament, which is very good.
"Let's take you for a walk."
Mai Tang was in high spirits.
"Okay."
Ye Lu nodded.

She really wanted to try Mai Tang's equestrian skills.
After bringing out the bay-red horse, Mai Tang got on the horse first.
Seeing her handsome posture, Ye Lu couldn't help but admire her.
He handed his hand to Ye Lu, and when she grabbed it, he pulled her up with force.
Ye Lu sat behind Mai Tang, hugged her waist, and couldn't help but sigh, "You are so strong now, your kung fu is really not in vain."
"It's not like you haven't seen how much I've eaten."
Mai Tang didn't care much.
It's a good thing to be strong.
"The key is that all the food you eat turns into muscles, it's amazing."
As he said that, Ye Lu couldn't help but touch Maitang's belly.
The meat on her belly had become hard and not as soft as before.
"Sit tight."
After saying this, Mai Tang gently pinched the horse's belly, and the horse ran away immediately.
Galloping around the racecourse, the horses seemed to be very happy and ran very fast.
Mai Tang is indeed good at equestrian skills.
Ye Lu is sitting behind her.
Except for a little bump in his buttocks, he doesn't feel any discomfort.
Not to mention the fear of being thrown off, it's very safe.
After running for a few laps, the horse slowly came to a stop.
It seemed to be enjoying itself very much.
"Sister, your equestrian skills are really amazing.
Mr.
Ji took me on horseback that day.
I was extremely nervous along the way and felt like I would fall off the horse at any time."
It seems that horseback riding also requires talent.
"The most powerful thing about Mr.
Ji is his brain, not his horse riding."
Mai Tang smiled.
Speaking of this, she actually envied Mr.
Ji for having such a brain.
"That's true, Mr.
Ji is a mental worker."
Ye Lu also admitted.
The two people got off the horse.
The bay-red horse swung its tail and was led away by the boy.
The two people slowly left the racecourse.
Returning to the small building, before walking in, a black armored soldier came over.
At one glance, Mai Tang knew what was going on, "I'm going back first, I have to practice sword practice later."
"You really want to be a hero, don't rush for success, take your time."
Mai Tang is working very hard now and won't be idle for a moment.
"Yeah."
Mai Tang raised his chin and returned to the small building.
Here, the black-armored soldier spoke, "Girl, the city lord has asked you to come over."
"Okay."
He turned around and walked towards Shen Tuyi's residence.

At this time, the sun was shining brightly, and the entire city lord's mansion was shining with golden light, which was very dazzling.
Entering the hall, Ye Lu turned to the study room next to him and took a look.
Shen Tuyi was not here.
Immediately, she walked upstairs, stepping on the steps, her hands behind her back, and her steps were relaxed.
After coming back for a few days, the signs of heaviness in her body also disappeared.
Now she is light and feels better.
On the second floor is Shen Tuyi's bedroom, which is super large.
The window was open, just enough to see the small building where she and Mai Tang lived not far away.
The phoenix bamboo planted behind the small building is growing very well and is very green and lovable.
Moreover, it is also the only green color in the entire City Lord's Mansion, and now it has become a rare sight.
Anyone passing by must take a look.
After all, there are no green plants in the City Lord's Mansion.
On the couch by the window, Shen Tuyi was sitting there, making tea.
Jumping over, Ye Lu turned around and sat across from the table, looking at Shen Tuyi's serious look with crooked eyebrows, "The Lord of the City wants to invite me to tea."
"You sound like you know tea."
Shen Tuyi glanced at her, pursed his thin lips slightly, and seemed to be in a good mood.
"If you don't understand, you can't drink it.
As long as I say it tastes good, tastes good, tastes good, any tea made by the city lord will be fine."
It was very difficult to deal with Shen Tuyi.
OK.
"It's very easy to deal with Shen Tuyi, just flatter him.
He loves to hear it.
"I'll mix some poison in a moment and make you mute."
Shen Tuyi knew her true nature very well.
Even if she didn't think so in her heart, she could still say a flower.
"Don't talk about poison.
If you mix it with feces, I'll drink it too."
He continued to flatter him, expressing his determination at the same time.
"Shut up."
She was disgusted.
Overjoyed, Ye Lu raised his legs and said, "Look, my riding boots are beautiful.
I just went horse riding with Mai Tang.
There are many good horses in the city lord's house.
If you take one out, you can sell it for a lot of money.
Not only can you In exchange for a big house, I don’t have to worry about food and clothing.
"Rich people are different, everything in the family is valuable.
"No one dares to buy my horse."
Shen Tuyi looked up at her and told her to stop thinking.
"Why?"
She didn't believe it anymore.
Shentu couldn't sell it in the four cities, so she went to the head office in another city.
"Even if my things are thrown away, others are not allowed to pick them up."
This is a very simple truth, and it cannot be doubted.
Deliberately sighing loudly, Ye Lu looked at him with a smile, "Such words are quite powerful coming from the mouth of the city lord.
I like it.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
If I were to say it, I would be a clown."
"Yeah."
He was very frank, proving that Ye Lu didn't have that momentum.
"You can't say some harmonious words.
Although I don't have much momentum, I can still deceive people who have momentum into losing momentum."
What's so great about momentum.
"Drink."
Shen Tuyi poured out the brewed tea and placed it in front of her, telling her to shut up.
Taking it over, Ye Lu smelled it, then took a sip, "It tastes good, it tastes really good."
Her compliment was so fake that it was obvious at first glance that she didn't mean it.
Shen Tuyi glanced at her indifferently, already used to her being so inconsistent.
Putting down the tea cup, Shen Tuyi looked at her, and after a while he said calmly: "Now we have some clues about another nine-life person from more than sixty years ago."
Hearing this, Ye Lu immediately opened his eyes wide, "Who is really still alive now?
Or is he dead miserably?"
"Don't worry, we just got some clues.
Mr.
Ji will investigate the matter personally.
I believe there will be new information back soon."
Shen Tuyi frowned slightly.
Seeing how excited she was, he was obviously extremely concerned.
I care whether these people with nine lives have a good death, or whether they die early.
Losing his smile, Ye Lu lowered his eyes slightly, "It's not easy to suddenly find someone of the same kind.
It would be even better if this person is still alive."
Shen Tuyi remained silent and had little chance of surviving.
"Then I don't know whether this person is a boy or a girl."
Is it only women, or is it possible for both men and women?
"According to the preliminary investigation, it should be a man."
Shen Tuyi didn't know what the rules were for people with nine lives.
"It turned out to be a man."
Ye Lu thought about it.
Even if that man was alive, he would be in his seventies or close to eighty now.
"Lord City Lord, thank you."
Ye Lu really didn't expect that he would actually investigate the nine-life man.
At that time, she was just talking casually, but she didn't expect to find out some clues so quickly.
"There are some things that you can't understand yourself, so you have to study them clearly."
Besides, she had two lives taken away, and no one knew what would happen.
"That's right.
I can't even understand myself now."
Originally, she knew herself best, but now she has become a puzzle that even she can't solve.
Looking at her, Shen Tuyi said nothing.
He was bound to solve the problem of Nine Lives.
Moreover, she also needs to know how to save her remaining lives so that what happened before will not happen again.
If everything was really lost, maybe, as she said, she would die immediately.
Mr.
Ji's investigation speed was relatively fast.

More than a month later, he sent more precise news, saying that he had found the location of the Nine Lives Man.
Ye Lu was immediately excited.
Could it be that he could really sit down and discuss things with the Nine-Life Man?
However, Shen Tuyi immediately dispelled her excitement.
The nine-life man was already dead.
"Dead" It seems that the saying that a person with nine lives has a long life is not correct, or in other words, he did not die a good death.
"Even if he dies, we can continue the investigation.
Why did he die?
What he experienced during his lifetime.
Maybe we can also find his family."
Shen Tuyi was very calm.
After all, he didn't hold the nine-year-old in his arms at the beginning.
There is hope that the destined person will live, otherwise Yingyan will not find Ye Lu's head.
Nodding slowly, "You're right.
Knowing what he went through during his lifetime may be able to get some clues and help me avoid taking the wrong path."
"When Mr.
Ji receives more accurate news, we will go over and take a look."
Looking at her, Shen Tuyi said word by word.
Lifting his eyes, Ye Lu pouted slightly, "Listen to you, it's hard for me to calm down when I say he's dead."
It's all fake that people with nine lives live long.
What's more, she already lost four lives and might die early.
Death is not scary, waiting to die is scary.
Walking over, Shen Tuyi sat down next to her, slowly raised his hands and put his arms around her shoulders, "Don't be afraid."
Twisting around and hugging his waist, Ye Lu buried her whole face in his arms, "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I feel uncomfortable."
"Yes, I know."
Shen Tuyi lowered his head slightly and kissed the top of her hair; even though his tone was not warm, it still sounded very safe.
Smelling the scent on his body, Ye Lu suddenly said: "I remember you told me that Long Zhao was completely placed under house arrest by the emperor, and his minions were almost dealt with.
But, why did I see Xue Feng this morning?
"Xue Feng, who was locked up with her in the cell of the City Lord's Mansion at that time, didn't know what happened to her after that.
He wanted to go out and go home to visit his mother, but I wonder if Shen Tuyi would allow him to do so.
"Xue Feng is the one who was missed, and Long Zhao contacted him recently."
Shen Tuyi looked indifferent, as if he thought this matter was nothing serious.
"So, he is now , he is your lackey now, this person is still worth using.
Moreover, I saw sadness on his face today.
Could it be that something happened to his mother?"
This man was very filial, and probably nothing could make him sad except for his mother.
Looking down at Ye Lu, Shen Tuyi slowly raised his eyebrows, "Do you think he is worthy of my trust?"
"Well, if you don't believe it, then give me a chance to test it out."
Ye Lu raised her eyebrows, she believed her eyes.
"Instead of touching the bones, I changed it to physiognomy."
Shen Tuyi seemed to be teasing.
"There are no separate families.
In fact, they are all similar.
It's just that everyone is good at something different, but they are also involved in other fields.
Especially over the years, I have met so many colleagues, and I can always learn a trick or two."

Ye Lu felt that they were similar, the only difference was the profoundness of Taoism.
"I'll trust you once."
Shen Tuyi was obviously giving her face.
If someone else said this in front of him, he would definitely not accept it for a while.
"It's an honor for me to have the trust of the Lord City Lord."
He said it was an honor, but his hands were busy squeezing the flesh of his waist, but he was so hard that he couldn't pinch it at all.
Shen Tuyi must have felt it when she was teasing her like this.
After looking at her for nearly a minute, she didn't intend to stop.
Shen Tuyi simply started to fight back, grabbing both of her hands, and then pressed her down on the soft couch.
His remaining hand grabbed her waist and tickled her.
Ye Lu immediately shouted, mixed with uncontrollable laughter that penetrated the entire small building.
The whole person was twisted into a ball, but his hands were still in his hands, and Ye Lu couldn't hide away at all.
Screaming and laughing, and eventually had to start begging for mercy.
The cry for mercy spread through the window and was heard by people nearby.
Mai Tang, who was watering the bamboos behind the small building not far away, shook his head repeatedly.
If this continues, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion will know how capable Ye Lu is.
If she really marries Shen Tuyi in the future, as the mistress of the house, no one can suppress her if she is so unmajestic.
It seemed like she really should teach her a lesson.
Maitang would certainly be able to find opportunities by teaching Ye Lu.
Camellia saplings, this variety is very durable and can still bloom when the time comes.
Ye Lu planned to plant these camellias in Shen Tuyi's yard, but she wanted to see if Shen Tuyi's evil spirit could defeat her.
The phoenix tail bamboo planted behind his small building is doing very well and is not affected by Shen Tuyi at all.
Therefore, now she moved the replanted plants closer to Shen Tuyi, and also saw if she could influence these plants and make them grow vigorously.
If it is possible, then there will be no problem in planting plants in the entire city lord's mansion, and they are guaranteed to survive.
A few marble floor tiles on both sides of the yard were dug up, and the black-armored soldiers quickly turned over the soil, and Ye Lu and Maitang began planting.
Camellia is durable and does not need to be planted in a particularly conspicuous place, just under the wall.
Ye Lu dug a hole with a shovel, and Mai Tang placed the camellia saplings in the hole she dug and then buried them with soil.
After taking a look at the black-armored soldiers who had retreated outside the courtyard, Mai Tang suddenly whispered: "Xiaolu, do you think the black-armored soldiers in the City Lord's Mansion are scary to you?"
"Afraid of me?
Why should I be afraid?"
Ye Lu was digging in the soil, wondering why he should be afraid of her.
She was not a Rakshasa.
"We have seen so many matrons and the like, what do you think of their behavior?"
The two of them haven't seen many other people, but they have definitely seen a lot of people.
They have seen all kinds of people.
When the words Mai Tang, the mistress of the family, came up, Ye Lu seemed to understand something.
Curling his eyes to look at her, Ye Lu chuckled, "My sister, you won't start teaching me how to be a mistress, right?
You are so funny.
Shen Tuyi and I haven't reached that stage yet, so you start now I am worried about the majesty of being the matron of the house."
Mai Tang couldn't help laughing, this worry is really interesting.
"You are smiling all day long, and you are either laughing or flirting with City Lord Shentu, which really undermines your majesty.
In any case, he is the City Lord, and we have no power.
Logically speaking, this is too much.
Let's ask our minds.
It's true, but that doesn't mean others won't think wildly.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
"Maitang is afraid that Ye Lu won't be able to hold on.
"Shen Tuyi and I are in love, not trying to climb down.
He has a special status, but I am the only one in the world, Ye Lu, and I am unique.
Besides, we haven't reached the stage of discussing marriage yet.
Now let's talk about it.
It's too early.
Sister, don't talk about this anymore.
The negative energy is overwhelming.
It affects my mood."
Ye Lu shook her head.
She didn't like to think about these things.
Putting aside what she thought, Shen Tuyi was always worried about his identity as the Lone Star of Heavenly Evil, and the two of them were already very tired.
However, it was fortunate that she was a person with nine lives.
If she were an ordinary person, she would have died due to some kind of accident.
Looking at her, Mai Tang finally swallowed the words in his mouth.
I planted all the camellias and watered them respectively.
Although I don’t know whether they can survive, they seem to have a lot more vitality after being planted in this yard.
Ye Lu is satisfied, and also hopes that they can live up to their expectations and make full use of her strong vitality to survive.
Within a few days, the camellias planted in Shen Tuyi's yard were indeed alive.
They did not have branches and leaves that withered and turned yellow after one night, as before, and were completely dead, so there was no need to save them.
Ye Lu feels quite accomplished, which means that his nine-life constitution is still quite strong.
Even the plants under Shen Tuyi's eyes have come alive, so it won't be a problem to start planting them in the entire mansion.
It’s time for those golden flowers, plants and trees to retire, and Ye Lu has really coveted them for a long time.
If I could give her one or two golden trees, she might become rich.
Along with this good scene came good news.
Mr.
Ji found the place where the Nine Lives man lived before his death, and also found his grave.
As soon as he heard this, Ye Lu couldn't sit still.
He had a grave, so he must have a family.
If you could visit his family, you might be able to learn something about his life.
Something.
Looking at the vibrant camellias in the yard, Shen Tuyi slowly turned her head to look at Ye Lu.
She was a little excited and a little nervous, which fully showed that she was very conflicted at the moment.
I also want to know what the man with nine lives has been through, and I am worried that if he does not die well, I will go down that road.
"Imagining is a waste of time.
If you really want to know, let's go there in person."
This would avoid waiting for news from Mr.
Ji and making her anxious.
Looking at Shen Tuyi, Ye Lu bit his lip, and then said: "Is it safe for me to leave here now?"
She didn't know what the situation was outside and whether anyone was still looking for her.
"I'm here."
Shen Tuyi said these simple words with determination.
Looking at him, Ye Lu couldn't help but curled up his red lips, "I believe you."
As long as he didn't leave him, he wasn't afraid of any danger.
Let's go as soon as we say we can.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
From Ye Lu's point of view, not only is he in a hurry, but Shen Tuyi is also in a hurry.
His urgency put her in a good mood, indicating that her life was quite important to him.
Mai Tang followed, and she was also very curious about the other nine-life person.
Moreover, this matter concerns Ye Lu, so he must follow.
The whole team, more than a hundred people, set off in casual clothes.
The place where the man with nine lives is currently buried is located in a mountain village in Zhicheng in the west of Qi State, and he lived in this village during his lifetime.
Zhicheng is far away from Shentu City, and even if we travel in a hurry, it will take five or six days.
Along the way, I was not in a hurry.
I stopped and stopped, and it took me eight days to enter the boundaries of Zhicheng.
Zhicheng is rich in wheat and is an important wheat producing area in Qi State.
Its wheat fields are extremely extensive, seven or eight times the area occupied by Zhicheng's population.
It is such a place, so there are many mountain villages, among the distant mountains and wheat fields.
As you walk, you will see a village with dozens of households at least and hundreds of households at most.
The man with nine lives lived in the mountains during his lifetime.
The small village was backed by the mountain, and in front of it were countless wheat fields.
It seemed like a pastoral country outside the world
