Chapter 57: Three Poisons Twelfth-2
Wei Wuxian was stunned and said, "Dead?"
His mind flashed through Lan Wangji's face that reflected the firelight and drooped tears, and blurted out: "How is Lan Zhan?"
Jiang Cheng said: "What else, go back." His father originally said that he would send someone to send him back to Gusu, but he refused. When I look at him, I must have thought of such a day. After all, in such a situation, no one is better than the other. β
The two sat down on the wooden fence again. Wei Wuxian said, "Then what happened to Lan Xichen, why did he run away?"
Jiang Cheng said: "Isn't the Wen family going to burn down their library? Tens of thousands of ancient books and music scores, some of which the people of the Lan family rescued back, should be handed over to Lan Xichen and let him take them away, how much can he protect, otherwise they will all be gone." That's what everyone guessed. β
Looking at the sky, Wei Wuxian said, "It's disgusting. β
Jiang Cheng said: "Yes." The Wen family is disgusting. β
Wei Wuxian said: "How long are they going to jump like this? We have so many families, we can't join forces......"
At this moment, a group of chaotic footsteps came, and a group of young monkeys in short clothes ran and jumped up the corridor, shouting: "Senior brother!!"
"Senior brother!! you are alive!!"
Wei Wuxian said, "What do you mean I'm alive? I'm not dead. β
"Senior Brother heard that you killed a big demon beast that is more than four hundred years old?!Really?!You killed it?!"
"What I want to know more than this is, senior brother, have you really not eaten for seven days?!"
"You really haven't secretly opened the valley behind our back?!"
"How big is the slaughter Xuanwu?
"Slaughtering Xuanwu is a king eight, right?!"
The atmosphere that had been slightly condensed before was immediately shocked into a crowd of chickens and dogs.
Wei Wuxian was not strict with his injuries in the first place, but he didn't take medicine in time, and with excessive fatigue, he didn't eat preserved fruits. But he had a good physical foundation, and after the iron scar on his chest was medicated, he soon lost his fever, and after lying down for a few days, he was alive again. But after the Xuanwu Rebellion in Duxi Mountain, the Wen family's "Education Division" in Qishan was completely dispersed, and the children of all the families returned to their respective homes, and the Wen family did not pursue it for the time being. Madame Yu seized the opportunity to reprimand Wei Wuxian, ordering him not to take half a step out of the gate of the Lotus Dock, not even to row a boat on the lake. So, he had to shoot kites with a group of Jiang family disciples every day.
No matter how fun a game is, it will be boring to play every day, so after half a month, it will become more and more interesting. Wei Wuxian couldn't lift his energy, so he shot blindly, and let Jiang Cheng win the first place several times for the first time.
On this day, when the last round of shooting was over, Wei Wuxian put a pergola between his eyebrows with his right hand, looked at the sunset, and said, "Take it, stop playing." Eat and go. β
Jiang Cheng said, "So early today?"
Wei Wuxian threw the bow away, sat down on the ground, and said abruptly, "It's boring, don't shoot." Which ones were the last to pick up just now? β
A young man said: "Senior brother, you are so cunning, you let others pick it up every time, so reckless." β
Wei Wuxian waved his hand and said, "I can't help it." Mrs. Yu won't let me go out, she is at home now, maybe the gold and silver beads are watching in some corner, ready to report me at any time. If I go out, Madame Yu will have to whip me off. β
The juniors with the worst records teased a few words, and went out to pick up kites. Jiang Cheng stood, Wei Wuxian sat on the ground, the two chatted a few words, Wei Wuxian said, "Uncle Jiang went out this morning, why hasn't he come back yet?
This morning, Jiang Fengmian and Mrs. Yu quarreled again. It doesn't seem right to say that it was a quarrel, but Mrs. Yu lost her temper unilaterally, and Jiang Fengmian always maintained a little demeanor. Jiang Cheng said: "It's not like I'm going to the Wen family again for our sword." It's really ...... to think that my three poisons might be held in the hands of a warm dog now."
With a look of disgust on his face, Wei Wuxian said, "It's a pity that our sword is not smart enough, if we can automatically seal the sword, then no one will want to use it." β
Jiang Cheng said: "There is no one in ten thousand spirit swords, you can meet but you can't ask for it, I see you ......"
Suddenly, several teenagers rushed into the school yard of Lotus Dock and shouted in panic: "The big thing is not good! Senior Brother Jiang, the big thing is not good!!
These people were the same few juniors who had just gone out to pick up kites, and Wei Wuxian stood up suddenly: "What's the matter?"
Jiang Cheng said: "What about the sixth junior brother, why is there one person missing?"
Sure enough, the first person who ran when he went out was the sixth junior brother, but now the others are gone. A young man breathlessly said, "Sixth Senior Brother, he was arrested!"
"Caught?!"
Wei Wuxian picked up the bow as well, holding a weapon in his hand, and said, "Did someone catch it?"
The young man said, "People, they were arrested." But I don't know why I wanted to arrest him!"
Jiang Cheng said: "I don't know why?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Don't worry. You make it clear. β
The young man said, "Just now, just now we went out to pick up a kite, and the kite fell over there, far away. We looked over and saw dozens of people, all from the Wen family, wearing their clothes, protΓ©gΓ©s and domestic servants, led by a young woman. She had a kite in her hand with an arrow stuck in it, and when she saw us, she asked who it was. β
Another teenager said, "This kite belongs to the sixth junior brother, and he said that it is his." The woman's face suddenly changed and she said, 'What a bold!' and this called the people under her command to arrest the sixth senior brother!"
Wei Wuxian said, "That's it?"
All the young men nodded one after another and said, "We asked why we wanted to arrest the sixth junior brother, and the woman kept saying that he was rebellious and harboring evil intentions, and shouted for his subordinates to escort the sixth junior brother away, but we had no choice, so we ran back first." β
Jiang Cheng scolded and said, "There is not even a reason to arrest people! Is the Wen family going to heaven?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Don't speak. The Wen family's people are probably coming to the door soon, so don't let them hear and grab any tricks. Let me ask you, does that woman not have a sword, is she very pretty, and has a mole on her mouth?"
The juniors said, "Yes! It's her!"
Jiang Cheng said hatefully: "Wang Lingjiao......!
At this time, a cold female voice came: "What is the noise, it will not be quiet for a day!"
Madame Yu walked in purple clothes, the gold and silver beads were still armed, and she followed behind her one left and one right. Jiang Cheng said: "A-Niang, the people of the Wen family are here, and the sixth junior brother was arrested by them!"
Mrs. Yu said, "You shouted so loudly, I heard it inside." What's this, it's captured and not killed, this is anxious and hateful to stomp your feet and grit your teeth, do you still look like a future sect master? Calm down!"
With that, she turned to face the gate in front of the school grounds. More than a dozen Wen monks dressed in robes of the scorching sun rushed in.
Behind the monks, a woman in colorful clothes stepped in with a gentle step.
This woman has a graceful posture, a charming appearance, autumn waves in her eyes, her lips are like fire, and a small black mole on the skin of her mouth, but she is quite an outstanding beauty. It's just that the hairpin ring around her body is shining, as if she can't wait to wear a jewelry shop and the nobleman's love for her, which is very low. It was Wang Lingjiao, who was slapped by Wei Wuxian in Qishan last time and vomited blood.
Wang Lingjiao pursed her lips and smiled, "Mrs. Yu, I'm here again." β
Mrs. Yu's face was expressionless, as if she felt that saying more to her would dirty her mouth. Wang Lingjiao walked down the steps of the gate, and Mrs. Yu said, "What are you doing arresting my son of the Yunmeng Jiang clan." β
Wang Lingjiao said: "Catch? Do you mean the one you caught outside just now? This is a long story." Let's go in and sit down and talk slowly. β
A house slave, without reporting or asking for permission to enter the house, entered the door of another family, and as a matter of course, asked to enter the house, "sit down and then speak slowly". Mrs. Yu's face became more and more cold, and the fingers of her right hand, wearing the silver ring of "purple electricity", twitched lightly twice, and the green tendons on the back of her hand rose slightly.
She said, "Go in and sit down?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Of course. I didn't have time to sit down when I gave the order last time, please. β
Hearing the word "order", Jiang Cheng snorted coldly, and the gold and silver shuangshu also showed a slight anger. But this Wang Lingjiao is a favored celebrity around Wen Chao, so naturally he can't offend her at the moment. Yes, although Mrs. Yu was full of sneers and sneers, full of yin and yang, she still said: "Okay, you can go in." β
Wang Lingjiao smiled and really went in.
However, she said that she wanted to go in and speak, but she did not rush to sit down, but took a small turn in the lotus dock with great interest, and expressed her opinions everywhere:
"This Lotus Dock is not bad. It's really big, but the houses are a little old. β
"The wood is all black, and the color is so ugly and not bright. β
"Mrs. Yu, your housewife is a little bad, don't you know how to arrange and take care of it? That's what looks good. β
She walked along the road, pointing along the way, as if this was her back garden. Madame Yu's brows twitched, seeing that Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng were secretly frightened, suspecting that she would burst out and kill at any time.
After the tour was completed, Wang Lingjiao finally sat down in the hall. No one invited Qianrang, she sat down on her own, sat for a while, saw that no one came to wait, frowned and patted the table, and said, "Where's the tea?"
Although she is surrounded by pearlescent jewelry, her words and deeds have no family etiquette at all, and she is full of ugliness. Mrs. Yu sat down in the second seat, and the hem and sleeves of her wide purple dress were spread out, making her waist more and more slender, and her posture was beautiful. The gold and silver shuangshu stood behind her, a shallow sneer on the corner of her mouth. Yinzhu said: "There is no tea." Drink and pour yourself. β
Wang Lingjiao's eyes widened, and she said in surprise: "The servants of the Jiang family never do anything?"
Jin Zhu said: "The servants of the Jiang family have more important things to do, and this kind of thing of serving tea and water does not need to be done by others." It's not a cripple. β
Wang Lingjiao looked at them a few times and said, "Who are you?"
Mrs. Yu said, "My personal maid." β
Wang Lingjiao said contemptuously: "Mrs. Yu, your Jiang family is really unreasonable. This is not good, even the maid dares to interject in the hall, such a house slave will be slapped in the Wen family. β
Wei Wuxian said in his heart: "Aren't you yourself a house slave when you say this. β
Mrs. Yu Bafeng said without moving: "Jinzhu Yinzhu is not an ordinary domestic servant, they have stayed by my side since they were children, and they never waited for anyone except me, and no one can slap their mouths. Can't, and don't dare. β
Wang Lingjiao said: "What is Mrs. Yu talking about, in the family, of course, the dignity and inferiority must be clearly distinguished, so that it can't be messed up." A domestic servant should be like a domestic servant. β
Mrs. Yu was deeply impressed by the sentence "A domestic servant must have the appearance of a domestic servant", glanced at Wei Wuxian, and actually agreed, and said proudly: "Not bad." β
Wang Lingjiao said: "It's better for Mrs. Yu to draw a line with that kid." He harbored evil intentions, and I caught him red-handed and sent him away. β
Mrs. Yu raised her eyebrows and said, "Harboring evil intentions?"
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but say, "What evil intentions can the sixth senior brother harbor?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "I have evidence. Bring it!"
A protΓ©gΓ© of the Wen family presented a kite, and Wang Lingjiao shook the kite and said, "This is the evidence." β
Wei Wuxian sneered, "This kite is a very common one-eyed monster, what kind of evidence is it?"
Wang Lingjiao sneered: "Do you think I'm blind? β
Her index fingers, painted with bright red dancΓ΄me, gestured back and forth on the kite, and analyzed eloquently: "What color is this kite? Golden." What shape is a cyclops? β
Mrs. Yu said, "So?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "So, Mrs. Yu, haven't you noticed it? golden, round, like what?" - the sun!"
In the dumbest eyes of the others, she said triumphantly: "There are so many kinds of kites, why does he have to make a one-eyed monster? Why does he have to paint gold? Isn't it good for him to make another shape? Why not another color? Do you still want to say that this is a coincidence? Of course not." This person must have done it on purpose. When he shot such a kite, he was actually taking the opportunity to allude to 'shooting the sun'! This is a great disrespect to the Wen clan of Qishan, and this is not harboring evil intentions?"
Seeing that she thought she was witty and far-fetched by herself, Jiang Cheng finally couldn't hold back anymore and said, "Although this kite is golden and round, it is 108,000 miles away from the sun, where is it like?
Wei Wuxian said, "Then according to what you say, the oranges can't be eaten." Tangerines are not also golden, round. But I think you've eaten it more than once, right?"
Wang Lingjiao gave him a fierce look. Mrs. Yu said coldly: "So you came this time just for this kite?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Of course not. This time, I am here to punish one person on behalf of the Wen family and Wen Gongzi. β
Wei Wuxian said in his heart: "It's going to be bad." β
She pointed at Wei Wuxian and said, "This kid, on Duxi Mountain, took advantage of the time when Gongzi Wen and Tu Xuanwu were fighting bravely, and made trouble many times, causing Gongzi Wen to be exhausted, almost missing, and even losing his own sword!"
Hearing her reverse black and white and make up nonsense, Jiang Cheng laughed out loud angrily. Wei Wuxian remembered Jiang Fengmian, who had gone out this morning, and said in his heart, "They deliberately chose this time to come. Or maybe he deliberately lured Uncle Jiang out!" Wang Lingjiao said: "It's okay! God bless Young Master Wen, even if he lost his sword, he still took the slaughter Xuanwu without danger." But this kid really can't be tolerated! I came today on the orders of Gongzi Wen to ask Madam Yu to severely punish this person and set an example for the rest of the Yunmengjiang clan!"
Jiang Cheng said: "A-Niang......"
Mrs. Yu said, "Shut up!"
Seeing Mrs. Yu's reaction, Wang Lingjiao was very satisfied, and said, "This Wei Ying, if I remember correctly, is it the servant of the Yunmeng Jiang clan? Otherwise, if the Yunmeng Jiang clan wanted to shield him, it would really make people suspicious...... There are some rumors...... Is it true...... Hee-hee. β
She sat on the first seat that Jiang Fengmian usually sat on, covering her mouth and smiling. Madame Yu looked away with a gloomy face, and suddenly, Wei Wuxian felt a pain in his back, and his knees involuntarily went limp.
Madame Yu whipped him.
Jiang Cheng said: "Auntie!"
Madame Yu had already stood up, and the purple electricity had turned into a whip shape, and the electricity flowed between her cold jade-like hands. She shouted: "Jiang Cheng, get out of the way, otherwise you will kneel down too!"
Wei Wuxian barely got up and said, "Jiang Cheng, get out of the way!
Mrs. Yu flew out with another whip, whipping him back to the ground, gritting her teeth and saying, "...... I've said it a long time ago, you're ...... Sooner or later, you unruly thing will bring big trouble to the Jiang family!"
Wei Wuxian pushed Jiang Cheng away, gritted his teeth and suffered, not covering up, not saying a word. In the past, although Mrs. Yu always spoke ill of him, she never really did anything to him, at most she ordered him to kneel and ground, and he would soon be released by Jiang Fengmian. This time, he was whipped more than a dozen times in a row, which made his back hot, numb and painful, unbearable, but he had to endure it. If the punishment is not satisfactory to Wang Lingjiao and the people of the Qishan Wen clan today, this matter will be endless!
Wang Lingjiao looked at it with a smile. After Madame Yu finished pumping, the purple lightning was withdrawn, and Wei Wuxian knelt on the ground, his upper body swaying forward, as if he was about to pounce. Jiang Cheng wanted to go up to help, but Mrs. Yu said sharply: "Stand away." Don't help him!"
Jiang Cheng was firmly held by the gold and silver beads, but Wei Wuxian still threw himself on the ground, lying on his stomach and not moving.
Wang Lingjiao was surprised and said, "It's over?"
Mrs. Yu snorted, "Of course it's over." β
Wang Lingjiao said: "That's it?"
Mrs. Yu raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you mean by 'just like this'? What kind of spiritual weapon do you think Zidian is? He has been beaten like this, and he will not be better next month, he will suffer it!"
Wang Lingjiao said: "But there is still a good time!"
Jiang Cheng said angrily: "What else do you want?!"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Mrs. Yu, since it is a punishment, then of course let him remember this lesson for the rest of his life, regret it for the rest of his life, and dare not do it again." If it is just a whip, he can recuperate for a period of time, and he can be alive and kicking, then what kind of punishment is it called? A boy of this age is most likely to heal his scars and forget the pain, and it has no effect at all. β
Mrs. Yu said, "How are you going to be? Chop off his legs so that he can't jump around anymore?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Gongzi Wen is generous, and he can't do such a brutal thing as cutting off his legs." Just cut off one of his right hands, and he will never care again. β
This woman is basically borrowing Wen Chao's support to take revenge on Wei Wuxian for slapping her in the cave of Duxi Mountain that day!
Madam Yu glanced at Wei Wuxian with slanted eyes and said, "Did you cut off one of his right hands?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Not bad. β
Yu Ziyuan stood up and walked around Wei Wuxian slowly, as if considering the idea. Wei Wuxian couldn't even raise his head, Jiang Cheng broke away the gold and silver beads, knelt on the ground, and said, "A-Niang, A-Niang, don't ...... Things weren't at all what she said they we......"
Wang Lingjiao raised her voice and said, "Little Master Jiang, are you talking about me Du Yi?"
Wei Wuxian lay on the ground and couldn't even turn over, and said in his heart: "Du Yi, what is Du Yi?" suddenly thought: "It's apocryphal! This woman was originally Wen Chao's wife's maidservant, she hadn't read a book and couldn't read a few words, but she wanted to pretend to be literate, use a new word, don't know how to pretend to understand, and read white characters!" Wang Lingjiao didn't realize that she was ugly, and said: "Mrs. Yu, think clearly, our Qishan Wen clan must investigate this matter." Chop off his hand and let me take it back, with an explanation, the Yunmeng Jiang clan will be fine, otherwise, the next time Wen Gongzi asks, it won't be so simple!"
Mrs. Yu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and she said in a dark voice: "Gold beads, silver beads, go, close the door." Don't let the blood be seen. β
As long as Madame Yu gave the order, the gold and silver shuangshu all obeyed, and they all said "yes!" crisply, which firmly closed the door of the hall.
Wei Wuxian heard the sound of the door closing, and the light on the ground disappeared, and he thought, "One hand? If you can change the peace of your family, one hand will be one hand, and it will be a big deal to practice left-handed swords in the future. β
Jiang Cheng hugged his mother's leg and said, "Ah Niang! Ah Niang! Listen to me, you must not cut off one of his hands! If Father knows......
Mrs. Yu's color changed suddenly, and she shouted: "Don't mention your father to me! What can he do if he knows?
Wang Lingjiao said happily: "Mrs. Yu, I know that you will definitely be able to make the right choice! It seems that in the future, we will definitely be able to talk very well in the supervision liao!"
Mrs. Yu pulled back the leg and skirt that Jiang Cheng was holding, turned around, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Inspector Liao?"
Wang Lingjiao said: "Yes, supervise Liao." This is the second reason why I came to Yunmeng. The new supervision order issued by the Wen clan in Qishan has set up a supervision liao in every city. I now announce that from now on, Lotus Dock will be the Wen family's supervision liao in Yunmeng. β
No wonder she just went in and out of the Lotus Dock, as if she regarded this place as her own mansion, it turned out that she really regarded the Lotus Dock as her stronghold in Yunmeng!
Jiang Cheng said with red eyes: "What is the supervision liao?!" This is my !!."
Wang Lingjiao frowned and said, "Mrs. Yu, you have to teach your son well." For hundreds of years, hundreds of schools of thought have been subservient to the Wen family, in front of the Wen family's envoys, how can they say such things about my family and your family? Originally, I was still hesitating, Lianhuawu is so old, and there are a few rebels, can I afford the heavy responsibility of supervising the liao, but seeing you obey my orders so much, I still decided to ...... this honor."
Before the words fell, Mrs. Yu shook her hand and gave her a loud slap.
This slap was earth-shattering both in strength and sound, and Wang Lingjiao was slapped a few times before falling to the ground, with a nosebleed and beautiful eyes.
Several protΓ©gΓ©s of the Wen family in the hall all turned into β‘β‘ swords, Madame Yu raised her hand, and the purple lightning flew out a circle of dazzling purple light, and all the protΓ©gΓ©s collapsed on the spot, and the gold and silver beads quickly surrendered all their swords.
Mrs. Yu walked to Wang Lingjiao's side gracefully, looked down at her condescendingly, suddenly bent down, reached out and grabbed Wang Lingjiao's hair, and raised it with another angry slap: "Cheap daring!"
She had been patient for a long time, but at this moment, her face was hideous, and she was close at hand, Wang Lingjiao was so frightened that she screamed with half of her swollen face. Madame Yu unceremoniously slapped her again, beating her piercing screams to an abrupt end, and shouted: "It is up to the master to beat the dogs! You rushed into my house and tried to punish the people in my house in front of me? What kind of thing, dare to go wild like this!"
After she finished speaking, she threw Wang Lingjiao's head away, as if she was dirty, took out her handkerchief and wiped her hands, and the gold and silver beads stood behind her, with the same contemptuous smile on her face. Wang Lingjiao covered her face with trembling hands, and said with tears streaming down her face: "You...... How dare you do such a thing...... The Qishan Wen clan and the Yingchuan Wang clan will not let you go!"
Mrs. Yu threw her handkerchief to the ground, kicked her over, and scolded: "Shut up! You slut, my Meishan Yu family's century-old family has never heard of the Yingchuan Wang family! This is a lowly family that came out of the gutter? Is the whole family like you? In front of me, I will teach you what it means to be humble! I am respectful, you are humble!"
On the side, Jiang Cheng had already helped Wei Wuxian up halfway from lying on the ground. Seeing this scene, both of them were stunned.
