31. Affection
Ming Yijun was confused for a moment.
Is it the gentleman who is here?
But he quickly dismissed his conjecture. No, it won't be a gentleman. According to what he knew, he would certainly not appear at such a time.
But if it's not a gentleman, then it can only be ......
Ming Yijun sighed lightly, what should come is always coming.
Ming Yijun carried Zhan Lu back into the house and closed the door for her. If the situation was really what he had guessed, he didn't want to implicate her.
She slept deeply, and the fact of cooking Chinese New Year's Eve dinner exhausted her. Making a meal for the three fierce beasts is not a task that anyone can complete, she has been preparing since the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, and she has been busy all day in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, at this time she is already asleep, and no one wants to wake her up.
There was no movement outside the door, only the constant knocking. Ming Yijun kissed Zhan Lu's lips again, and then came to the door.
At this time, his strength is not weak, and during the time he is recuperating here, his strength is constantly changing like a tide, but he can sense that the overall development is still improving. And tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, the night of the convergence of two years, his strength has almost reached the peak of what can be achieved so far.
If there really is, he will not be powerless to fight back.
Ming Yijun opened the door.
Surprisingly, there were not as many heavenly soldiers outside the door as he imagined, only a middle-aged Taoist priest dressed in a crane.
The crane he knew, it was the one that Weijijun lost to him and was lost to the green fox by him. At this time, it was draped over the shoulders of the Taoist man, and it looked very suitable.
Ming Yijun didn't know who the Taoist was, from Ming Yijun's point of view, although his strength was stronger than that of ordinary humans, he was still too weak, obviously he was not an immortal with an immortal basket. Judging from the crane he was wearing, he was about ...... The elders of the green fox?
The Taoist priest inquired at Ming Yijun and said with a smile:
"Poor Dao is a Taoist priest on Taibai Mountain, Your Excellency may not know the meaning of Poor Dao, Poor Dao is here to thank you today. ”
Although he knew that this Taoist priest could not bring him even the slightest harm, Ming Yijun was still a little guarded. Who knows if he has any unexpected magic weapons on him that can capture him in one fell swoop?
The Taoist priest saw Ming Yijun's defense, and smiled faintly:
"You don't need to be guarded, and you don't dare to compete with you with this little bit of the poor way. Poor Dao came today, but because his disciples were ignorant and offended Your Excellency, fortunately, Your Excellency didn't care, released him, and gave him a crane. Poor Dao was grateful in his heart, so he came to thank him. ”
Ming Yijun looked at the Taoist priest coldly, and did not speak, just waited for the Taoist priest to continue speaking. I heard the Taoist priest say again:
"Since Your Excellency can be released to my disciples, Poor Dao knows from this that Your Excellency is not a ferocious person. Before, Poor Dao heard his disciples say that Your Excellency wants to summon the four murderers here. As one of the four murderers, you naturally know that if the four murderers gather, it will inevitably lead to the destruction of life. For the sake of the common people in the world, please dispel this idea. ”
Ming Yijun raised his eyebrows:
"What does the world have to do with this seat?"
The Taoist priest did not retort loudly, but only shook his head slightly, as if he knew that he was going to say so.
"Heaven is constant," the Taoist priest said, "Your Excellency, you are also a member of the world. ”
Ming Yijun shook his head:
"The way of heaven is constant, and the gathering of the four evils will cause the lives to be ruined, which is also determined by the way of heaven. The Heavenly Dao not only dominates the life and rest of all things, but also dominates the killing. Life is also reason, and death is also reason. ”
The Taoist priest frowned: "In that case, Your Excellency is determined to refuse to change his original intention?"
Ming Yijun shook his head, his eyes full of compassion:
"The ones who really destroy the way of heaven are not people like this seat that you call 'ferocious'. ”
The Taoist priest was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer. After a long time, he said:
"The way of heaven is not something that people like Poor Dao can peep through. The poor road itself is insignificant, and I have come here today only to advise you, and if you fail to follow the trend, you will inevitably harm yourself. ”
Ming Yijun smiled faintly:
"In that case, thank you. However, according to this seat, the Taoist is just a mortal, so it is better not to get involved in these things. ”
When the Taoist priest saw that he couldn't move Ming Yijun, he had to leave. Ming Yijun closed the door and let out a long sigh of relief.
Originally, I thought that Heavenly Court was going to send someone to arrest him this time, but I didn't expect to call such an old Taoist priest to persuade him bitterly. They should understand that such an old Taoist priest can't persuade him. This made Ming Yijun a little puzzled, what was their idea of fighting?
The longer they delayed, the more unstable Ming Yijun's heart became. I always felt that a bigger conspiracy was about to befall me.
But......
Hmph, whatever.
He paced into the kitchen and looked at the jar of jade lime and snow honey.
As long as he finds the other three things, what he promised Zhan Lu will be completed. Staying here was a last resort, and he originally planned to leave after finding all the five things for Zhan Lu to eat, and after completing what he had promised. But somehow, now he didn't want to leave so soon.
His cave house is located in the southwest, and it is gorgeous and comfortable. He never wanted to stay there for a long time, he had been adrift in the world for tens of thousands of years, but there was no place where he wanted to stop and rest. But at this time, Ming Yijun wanted to stop here.
At least, stop for a few more years.
He paced back into the room and saw that Zhan Lu was still asleep.
What a weird chick. Obviously as a human being, but he doesn't want to live like a human being. Crashed into him so recklessly, looked at him with sparkling eyes, and said that he was in love with him.
What a good-looking chick she was, why bother...... Do you want to like him as a beast?
He stretched out his hand and gently traced Zhan Lu's facial features. God is really unfair to her, she has suffered so much at such a young age, but she has given her such a beautiful face. But this beautiful face brought her not any good, but a curse.
Under normal circumstances, he does not pay attention to human appearance. After all, who cares about what the ingredients for his lunch look like? But he couldn't ignore her, he couldn't ignore her beautiful smile.
It's a strange thing.
Everything in this world, even plants and trees, has feelings, let alone such a complex animal as human beings?
But at this time, he was standing beside this little girl, but he vaguely felt the meaning of lingering, and he couldn't bear to leave. He has no other desires by nature, only appetite, but at this time, there seems to be a trace of something else in the endless appetite, which tickles his heart.
This little difference would not have attracted his attention, but after a long time, he suddenly realized that the thoughts in his heart had changed, and the things stirring in his heart seemed to be more than just a little itch.
This thing is really unreasonable, but since even the Heavenly Dao can be changed, is there anything worth his hesitation about such a small common sense?
He is gluttonous, in the time he has experienced in this world, he has seen the changes in the vicissitudes of life, how can he be uneasy because of this little change in his body?
If there's anything different from the usual, just accept it.
He hugged her gently, sniffed her clothes, and fell into a deep sleep with her.
