After dinner, Duoduo clamored to go out to play on the street, which was also her biggest hobby. When Zi Donglai and Gu Qing were not around, the yard was always deserted, so Bai Ling often took Cheng Ruoyi and Duoduo to play on the street after dinner. There was a wide river in Luocheng, and many people went there for a walk after night.

Duoduo and Cheng Ruoyi didn't go there for a walk, because there were many people walking there and many people selling strange snacks. Most of them were going for these things, and Bai Ling just took a quiet walk, and also wanted to prevent the two girls from running away.

Zi Donglai took Duoduo and Bai Ling out for a long time. When he came back, he had a unique crystal lantern hanging in the yard. These crystal lanterns were brighter than ordinary beast oil candles, so ancient people were willing to spend money to buy them.

Duoduo was so tired that it might be because Zi Donglai this time, so the little girl was much crazy than usual. Zi Donglai had run several times but couldn't keep up. Fortunately, Bai Ling had already gotten used to her crazy behavior, so every time she always caught her in a strange stall, and taught her several times for Zi Donglai.

"Take her to rest." Zi Donglai came to the garden and hugged Duoduo from her body and put it in Bai Ling's arms, then looked up and said to Bai Ling, "You should rest early, and there is something to tell you tomorrow." Zi Dong turned around and left after he finished speaking.

Bai Ling looked at Zi Donglai's back stupidly. This was the first time Zi Donglai said these words to her. She didn't know whether to be happy or sad. The servant saw Bai Ling standing there blankly, and walked over to her and tried to carry Duoduo over. But before she could reach out, Bai Ling turned around and entered the room, leaving the servant standing there stupidly.

"Donglai is back." Zi Donglai found ancient in the backyard. He was planting a fruit tree taller than him into a digging pit. Gu is now like an ordinary old man. He either trims flowers and plants in the garden or plants melons in the backyard every day. This is also one of his biggest hobbies.

"Ancient." Although it was already dark, Zi Donglai could still see the dense beads of sweat on the ancient man. Zi Donglai said with some distress: "Let the people do these jobs."

"They can do it there. The last time I almost killed a strange flower in the garden." Gu Lao shook his head. Zi Donglai had known Gu Lao would say this for a long time.

The servants at home usually serve tea and water, clean and clean everything well, and Gu Lao was very satisfied with them. However, when doing the work of planting flowers and growing grass, Gu Lao was worried that they would accidentally plant the flower to death and the grass to death. So after the servants tried a few times, Gu Lao decisively asked all servants not to enter the garden and backyard. Usually, Gu Lao was led by Gu Lao, and they just started to work.

Seeing Zi Donglai say this, the servants standing next to him suddenly wanted to come forward to help Gu Lao, but Gu Lao waved his hand to signal them to stand aside and not to move. The servants looked at each other helplessly and stood there. Zi Donglai was also a little helpless. Gu Lao's temperament changed too quickly, and it seemed that Luocheng had become like this since he came.

"I have something to tell you." Zi Donglai reached out to support the ancient fruit tree being planted.

"Don't move around, stand aside, wait until I plant this tree, let's go to the front yard to kill two pieces." Gu Lao saw Zi Donglai holding a tree pole tightly, and immediately rushed Zi Donglai to the side.

"Okay." Zi Donglai took a few steps back and stood by the servants waiting for Gu Lao.

The ancient tree planting means being careful and serious. Zi Donglai waited for half an hour before the ancient planted the fruit tree like a child. Before leaving, he did not forget to water the fruit tree a little, but the insignificant thing watering in Zi Donglai's eyes became difficult in ancient hands. Fortunately, he often planted trees and flowers, so the watering time was not long.

"Don't underestimate this tree. If you don't care about it carefully, its life may be ruined in your hands." Gu Lao didn't forget to look back at the fruit tree just planted before leaving the backyard. When he turned around, he continued to say to Zi Dong: "It is the same as a human, and it needs a lot. It is slowly changing step by step. If you don't care about it carefully, it may become another in a few days."

Although ancient times were talking about fruit trees, Zi Donglai heard other meanings. Planting trees is like being a human being. Any inappropriate things will affect it. These are nothing more than careful observation and care for the people who plant trees. In fact, the same is true for people. There must be a shadow around you so that you can know your right or wrong and realize the changes in your heart.

After the old man washed his hands, the servants had already put chess pieces and tea on the stone table beside the garden. After Zi Donglai arranged the chess pieces one by one, the servants left tactfully.

"Is there any change?" The old man came out of the first chess piece, which was nothing more than a normal move. No chess game could determine the winner on the first chess piece, so the first chess piece often had routines.

"There are some changes. Recently, the demons began to recruit soldiers everywhere. Judging from the information I just investigated, the demons are coming this time, and they may be more crazy and terrifying than before." In the blink of an eye, six or seven pieces had been placed, but Zi Donglai still took his hands and did not think too much.

"Do we have to plan ahead?" Gu Lao had already started preparing to evacuate Luocheng, but Zi Donglai did not have any accurate information, so he was just preparing for a while.

"No hurry, let's get the notification first." Zi Donglai frowned and looked at the chess piece that Gu Lao had just fallen. After he was distracted, Gu Lao gained the upper hand.

The notification Zi Donglai said was to give Gu Lao a chance to notify the Cheng family. After all, it was Cheng Ruoyi's home, and the Cheng family and Gu Mansion have been very close to each other over the years. Zi Donglai would ignore who others wanted to notify.

"You are not here these days. I have been waiting for you to come back before going to the Cheng family to talk about this. Why don't we go to visit the Cheng family tomorrow?" Gu Lao was just waiting for an opportunity. When he suddenly visited the Cheng family and said these things, it would inevitably cause panic to the Cheng family.

"Okay." Zi Donglai nodded. He had already begun to lose this game, but he was still trying to save it. After leaving a life-saving piece, Zi Donglai continued to say to Gu Lao: "I'm going to get in touch with the Xia Dynasty." Zi Donglai had limited ability after all, if the demons suddenly invaded the Three Realms, it would be better that there was an official organization coming out to maintain stability.

"It's time to contact." The ancient general's chess piece fell, and he had already won the game.

"Another plate." Zi Donglai picked up his chess piece and started to put it on again, but he couldn't stop discussing countermeasures with Gu Lao.
