21. Sugar porridge
Shen Jinglan ate one bite at a time, he ate very slowly and quietly. Lin Yan was watching him eat.
"Why don't you buy more?" he asked suddenly.
Lin Yan said: "I don't want to eat." ”
Shen Jinglan put down the spoon, glanced at him, and said softly: "Although the family is poor, you can always afford to buy an extra one, so why should you ...... So frugal?"
Lin Yan: "......"
The sect leader is getting more and more energetic?
I'll buy the property and title deeds of this street when I go back, okay?
Seeing that Lin Yan didn't speak, Shen Jinglan said again: "Ah Yan, then you can eat a little too." Before we came out, we hadn't filled our stomachs. ”
His face is still pale, his eyes are still very bright, due to the change of identity, his face is now more slender and beautiful than his original, and most people can't help but lower their voices in front of this face.
Lin Yan was really afraid that he would suddenly say "come, I'll feed you", so he rushed into this face, and he seemed to be able to really say it.
Fortunately, he just pushed the bowl and spoon to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and was secretly a little lost.
There is such a warm relationship between them, and it seems that Qi Yan and Xu Xiaofei have also blinded them.
The two of them are just friends, not lovers.
"It's so lively here," Qi Yan turned her head to look at the crowded street, sighed, and shook her head, "It's much more lively than on the mountain, but it's a pity that your Senior Brother Han didn't come today." ”
"Senior brother is still practicing his sword, right?" Xu Xiaofei continued.
"Yes, it's going to be the Sword Conference soon, and my senior brother is going to send me to participate in the big competition, and he is sharpening his gun, and he's busy every day. Qi Yan smiled.
Hearing them talk about business, Lin Yan couldn't help but prick up his ears.
The sect leader who was watching him drink porridge seemed to be quietly paying attention to the conversation between the two.
"Where is the grinding gun," Xu Xiaofei also smiled, "Senior brother has always been very diligent in his cultivation, but he has been especially diligent recently. With his swordsmanship, it's no problem to take the first place in the youth group. Senior Sister Qi, you hurt him so much behind your back, beware of me suing me!"
"Little rabbit, you dare!" Qi Yan raised his hand with a gesture.
She put down her hand, and then said: "If Senior Brother really wins the first place in the youth group this time, he will not be eligible to participate in the competition in the future." Senior Brother Xu, I sent people to be thin, I am most optimistic about you among the young disciples, you also have to practice swordsmanship well. ”
She was not wrong, this time it was Han Yue who participated, and it was Xu Xiaofei's turn to play in the next session.
Of course, whether to advance all the way or lose in the first game depends entirely on the player's level of cultivation and operation level.
"Isn't Senior Sister's cultivation much higher than mine?"
"Me?" Qi Yan shook her head and said, "I've learned a lot of strange spells, and I can't fight with real swords and guns." …… Let's eat chestnuts. She casually stuffed a freshly peeled hot chestnut into Xu Xiaofei's hand.
Xu Xiaofei saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, and asked directly, "Senior sister, do you still have something to say?"
"Do you see that?" Qi Yan paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I actually ...... this matter I shouldn't have sued you, but if your senior brother knew that I had spoken out, I was afraid that he would be angry with me. That's why I took the opportunity for the two of us to come out alone, and wanted to tell you secretly. ”
She was originally a person with a hearty personality, but at this time, she was a little distracted.
"What's the matter?" Xu Xiaofei said strangely, "Could it be ......?"
A layer of gloom rose in his eyes.
"It's really about Senior Brother Lin Mo. Qi Yan admitted calmly, seeing Xu Xiaofei's expression, she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'm not trying to persuade you to give up." I'll make a long story short, as you know, I send some elders to travel outside all year round, and among them is Elder Meng Xingzhen, who has been staying in a remote place in the southwest for decades, a place called Jinping City. He recently sent back the news that he had found some strange people there, and that the living were frozen and the dead were raised......"
"What?" Xu Xiaofei immediately heard the key, and his voice trembled, "The dead are resurrected, the dead are resurrected...... Little Ink ...... Is there any hope for him?"
His eyes were wet. There are too many complicated emotions in the eyes that I can't recognize them one by one.
Qi Yan waited for him to calm down before continuing.
"Yes, you may be able to find the method you are looking for there. But that place is too dangerous, and your skills are still very weak, so you have to practice well for a while before you go. What Senior Brother means is that since you have made up your mind, no one can persuade you, so let you nurture his soul, at most, it is just that his cultivation is stagnant, and the monks with poor qualifications have lived like this all their lives. However, letting the soul of the dead be reincarnated is a technique against the sky, and he will definitely pay a great price, and he resolutely refuses to tell you the news. She let out a long sigh, "I can't bear to see you like this...... Once you've tried it, you might be able to figure it out. ”
"I understand, I understand!" Xu Xiaofei said, "Thank you senior sister for informing me, I ...... I will definitely practice diligently and look for opportunities there. As long as I can resurrect him, I can afford to pay any price......"
He unconsciously raised his hand and touched his chest, where the flesh hid his jade pendant.
I couldn't help but smile.
Seeing him like this, it made people realize that he had always been lifeless, even when he was laughing with Qi Yan, his heart sank in a very deep place without light. At this time, he suddenly came back to life, and his expression was full of hope.
Some people don't stay in a desperate situation for long.
They can always find a way out.
Shen Jinglan was listening to them, his expression was calm, and he couldn't see what was going on in his heart.
He suddenly said: "Both of you are cultivators, right? Although I don't know much about cultivating immortals, I can also hear that this young man is a person of the utmost affection. ”
Qi Yan and Xu Xiaofei didn't expect this sick and shy beauty to suddenly interject, and they both looked at him in surprise.
Even his husband was surprised and said, "You, you can't ......."
Did he have a crush on him?-that's what he was trying to say, as it sounded.
Shen Jinglan ignored him, but continued: "You may wonder why I interjected your words, because this young man reminds me of one of my uncles. He was originally from a famous and decent family like you, but later in order to get an explanation for his friend who died in vain, he killed many people, and had to defect to the Demon Cult, and everyone said that he was a demon who was rotten from the bones. But I've seen him as a kid, and I know he's not born a demon, just like you. ”
He looked at Xu Xiaofei and coughed lightly: "You drive away the scoundrel for me without asking for repayment, you are very warm-hearted, exactly the same as he used to be, and besides, you seem to have to do something that the world does not allow...... Maybe one day, you will join the Demon Cult like him, and maybe you can meet him and become friends with him. ”
Lin Yan: "......"
The sect leader seemed to really have a good impression of Xu Xiaofei, and took the opportunity to promote the Heavenly Peerless Sect.
He lightly touched Shen Jinglan's forearm: "Okay, stop, why did you talk so much today? ”
On the surface, he still has to do it.
However, even if Qi Yan and the others were suspicious, no matter what means they used to investigate, they would never be able to see through their disguise.
"That's a coincidence, did your uncle join the Demon Sect? Demon Sect ...... Heavenly Absolute Sect ......"
Xu Xiaofei muttered, and he also understood the meaning of Shen Jinglan's words.
"Yes, against the sky, the world does not tolerate ...... Maybe then I will have the only way to go. ”
"Senior Brother Xu, what did you say!" Qi Yan frowned and said sharply.
She should have thought of this too, but when Xu Xiaofei said it herself, she still found it difficult to accept it.
"Senior sister," Xu Xiaofei was calmer than her, "even if this day comes sooner or later, I will always regard the Loose Sect as a home." At that time, you don't have to recognize me anymore, so as not to implicate the Loose Sect, but in my heart, I will still regard you as senior brothers and sisters. ”
"Don't talk about it...... Qi Yan couldn't listen anymore, got up and said, "Let's go." ”
The backs of the two quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Lin Yan said: "Let's go too, the wind is a little cold, let's go back and rest early." ”
"Good. Shen said in shock.
He was supported by Lin Yan and slowly stood up.
Walking all the way to a place where there was no crowd, Lin Yan glanced at him, and said awkwardly: "Sect Master, you, why did you become like this today?"
"Can't you let go?" Shen said in shock, "My appearance has changed, but my inside has not changed, and when you see my appearance change, my heart will also change...... Being so attached to appearances seems to indicate that your mind still needs to be tempered. ”
He smiled at Lin Yan.
“…… Be. ”
After being disciplined again, Lin Yan said helplessly: "The sect leader is always very reasonable. ”
No matter how reasonable it is, it can't avoid the fact that the sect leader forcibly molested him all night today.
