Volume II, Chapter 20: The Garden
In the seemingly empty room, after the man in brown clothes left, Xiangning was left alone, she teleported her eyes to the small creed on the table, and suddenly got up and stretched out her hand to open the creed.
The creed reads: "Do not act without permission, and all matters are subject to the arrangement of the Great Elder!"
Xiang Ning frowned and finished reading the creed, "Hmph!"
He snorted coldly, then held the creed in the palm of his hand, and with a slight movement, the creed was quickly crushed and extinguished.
Then there was another knock on the door, knock knock!
"Who?" Xiang Ning immediately returned to her state, and said sharply at the door of the house with cold eyes.
"Sister Xiangning, it's me, the son has finished changing clothes, and I will call you over. ”
"Okay, I'll be there later. ”
"Sister Xiangning, hurry up, the feast is about to begin. The maid kept emphasizing, and then turned and left the place.
Soon, Xiang Ning changed into a light purple maid dress, and re-smeared rouge gouache on her face, her complexion was even more ruddy at this time, and it seemed to be much better than before, and she couldn't see any injuries on her body.
The clothes were fluttering, and he walked calmly in the direction of Sinan House.
At this time, Sinan had already dressed up and stood in the courtyard.
He turned his head to look at Xiang Ning, who was coming, "Xiang Ning, you are here, come with me to a place first." ”
Sinan grabbed Xiangning's wrist and rushed out of the courtyard with a whoosh.
Xiangning was even more puzzled, what's wrong with Childe today, so happy?!
"Childe, where are you going?" Xiang Ning was dragged by Si Nan's hand, and asked curiously as she ran.
"You'll know when you get there, anyway, you just go with me. ”
So Xiangning didn't ask, but ran silently like this.
I don't know how long it took, but they finally stopped, and the two of them came to a separate garden.
The annex was relatively simple, with a pond planted with many flowers and trees, and a small pavilion with a table and four benches and chairs.
At this time, there was a middle-aged man sitting in the pavilion, holding a book in his hand and a cup of tea brewed on the table, as if waiting for someone.
Sinan let go of Xiang Ning's hand at this time, brushed his clothes and walked in the direction of the middle-aged man.
Xiang Ning followed behind him, and Sinan didn't notice Xiang Ning's surprise at this time.
Xiangning looked around, but muttered in her heart, how could it be here?
It wasn't until I came to the pavilion and saw the middle-aged man that I confirmed Xiangning's guess, and sure enough, it was here!
The middle-aged man's eyes slanted slightly, and he soon sensed the slight footsteps of Sinan and the others;
Si Nan was full of smiles, stood behind the middle-aged man and bowed slightly, "Si Nan, I have come to see the Great Elder!"
The middle-aged man slowly got up from the stool and chair, turned his head, showed a kind smile on his face, waved his sleeves and helped Sinan up, "They are all disciples in the sect, so there is no need to make this big gift." ”
This middle-aged man is the Great Elder of Tianyan Sect, and he is also the cousin of Yan Luo, the master of the sect, Yan Qi.
"Xiang Ning greets the Great Elder. Afterwards, Xiang Ning also saluted to the Great Elder Yan Qi.
Yan Qi turned his head to look at Xiangning, who was lowering his head, and suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, and he was very shocked.
At the same time, Xiang Ning was also shocked, and she was still thinking about how to find this great elder, but she didn't know that the next second she was far away from the sky.
Sinan didn't know the strange looks of Yan Qi and Xiang Ning, and glanced at Xiang Ning with a satisfied look.
"Xiangning, are you the woman that Sinan rescued a few years ago?" Yan Qi groped his chin and asked thoughtfully.
"Elder Hui is the little girl. ”
"Well, yes, yes, serve the son well. ”
"Yes!"
After finishing speaking, Yan Qi and Sinan sat down, and Xiang Ning next to them lifted the hot tea and poured it out.
In order, it was handed to Yan Qi first, and then to his son-in-law Sinan.
"I heard that Yan Jun also rescued a woman, and the master of the door has a lot of eyes with her, and he will make her an elder later. Yan Qi put down the teacup lightly, supported the stool with his other hand, his ten fingers kept moving, and his eyes looked straight ahead and said slightly.
"Oh exactly, I don't know why the master likes her so much, I think it must be the edge of the eyes!" Si Nan was overwhelmed and responded with a sneer.
"Oh, the edge of the eyes?" the corners of Yan Qi's mouth rose slightly, and his tone was slightly disdainful.
This touch of disdain Sinan felt it, and said indifferently: "I saw that woman a few days ago, her name is Yun Yao, and she looks really good. ”
"Yun Yao?" Yan Qi's mouth moved, and he continued, "You must know that although this appearance is good, if you want to be an elder of this Tianyan Sect, you have no skills and strength, and no matter how good your appearance is, it is useless. ”
"Yes, the Great Elder taught. ”
"Okay, it's nothing to call you here today, recently sent someone from Beilin to send a pot of fragrant tea, specially for you to taste. ”
"This Beilin fragrant tea can be described as a well-known good tea, and it is a loss to have this honor to taste it today, and you have lost the face of the Great Elder. Knowing that this tea came from Beilin, Sinan put a cold butt on his hot face and complimented.
"You don't have to compliment me so much, you have worked really hard all these years, as long as you work hard, the power of the Shield Deed Pavilion will still be yours. "Yan Qizi is more straightforward, quick-talking, refreshing, and never detours.
Listening to Sinan's false words, he really held back an inexplicable anger in his heart, so he pulled down his face and said unhappily.
In the Tianyan Sect, everyone knows that although the Great Elder is related to the door master, this temperament is not very popular in the door, and he has always been at odds with the door master everywhere.
And Sinan has no reliable power behind him, and he is bent on taking charge of the Shield Deed Pavilion.
The only one who can help him is this great elder, so if he is polite, he is afraid of offending.
"Yes, the Great Elder knows that I have always been of this nature, and I hope I don't see it as a strange thing. When Sinan heard the last sentence, a fire of blood suddenly burned in his heart.
If someone else said this, maybe Sinan would think that it was just a wild talk, but now that this sentence came out of Yan Qi's mouth, he knew that it was definitely not a joke.
Xiang Ning stood behind the two of them, unconsciously letting out a sneer.
The voice was very small, Si Nan didn't hear it, but Yan Qi heard it impartially, so he squinted at Xiang Ning, and preached, "Don't act rashly, since your master chooses to cooperate with me, then you have to obey my orders." ”
"Hmph, I don't know how the Great Elder is going to stop it next?" Xiang Ning also preached.
"I have my own arrangement, you just have to be yourself. ”
"Since the master chose you, I naturally obeyed the arrangement of the Great Elder. ”
"Hmph, I hope so. ”
Yan Qi turned his head after snorting, and his eyes looked not far ahead.
The garden was very quiet, and at this quiet time, there was a lot of noise from people, and it seemed that the feast had begun!
