Chapter 47: The Li Family Sisters
"Recently, the atmosphere of the teahouse in Lingling City has been very different. Zhou Yan said to Xue Yan when he came back that day.
"What's the difference?"
"Hmm...... The storyteller, who originally told some interesting stories, began to tell the great achievements of the Li family in a different way. I don't know if it's true or not, but it sounds like a fiction to me. ”
Xue Yun was slightly stunned: "...... Someone from the Li family wants to come to Lingling City?"
"Hey?" Zhou Yan's eyes widened: "You are so powerful, you guessed it before I even said it!"
“...... In the past, in Mianzhou, if the children of the Xue family walked from the main city where the family was stationed to the nearby towns, they could always hear this kind of ...... Touted. ”
Zhou Yan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Xue Yuan faked his death and left the Xue family, and they all knew about it, and they also knew Xue Yuan's feelings for the Xue family now...... It's complicated.
"The Li family...... Who is coming, Ah Yan knows?"
"Hmm...... I heard that it was two junior ladies who came to Lingling City to relax. called, Li Yanran, and Li Yanning. ”
Xue Yu only felt his scalp explode, and stood up from the stool suddenly.
Zhou Yan was defenseless, startled by Xue Xuan's violent reaction, patted his chest and eased up before asking, "Xuan, are you...... Do you know that?"
"I ......"
At this time, Xiao Luo came over with a small plate of dim sum, glanced at Xue Yun with a smile, put the dim sum plate on the table, and sat down on the stool next to Xue Yuan, while reaching out to pull Xue Yun back and sit down, he explained to Zhou Yan: "Yuan'er's mother was born in the Li family, and among the two Li family ladies you mentioned, Li Yanran is the cousin and friend who grew up with Xuan'er. ”
"Yo!" Zhou Yan was surprised: "Uh...... What kind of friends? like Xiao Luo and Su Run, who have a relationship like that, don't have to hide anything?"
Xiao Luo hooked the corners of his mouth, and glanced at Xue Yuan, who lowered his head beside him and began to pull his fingers: "It should be said...... It's the kind of thing, if there are too many things to hide from her, it may ...... Ahem, the kind of disaster that made Yu'er come to a great disaster...... Pal. ”
Zhou Yan blinked, as if he understood, but he didn't seem to understand too much.
"Yu'er. Xiao Luo thought about Xue Yuan: "Do you want to send a message to Li Yanran in advance? Before she comes, don't ...... Ahem, she found you first. ”
Xue Yun bit his lip and didn't speak.
She was really thinking about doing it......
But...... How?
She is a "dead" person, and she can no longer use the method of contacting her when she was still in the Xue family.
But beyond that......
Do you want to use Su Run's spirit bird like Xiao Luo sent a message to Lu Yan? If Yan Ran and Yan Ning didn't come alone, and there were others, I was afraid that they would be exposed......
That...... Not in touch?
Xue Yun couldn't help but tremble.
"I don't think you should even try to sneak away. Xiao Luo propped up the edge of the table with one hand and turned his head to look at her: "If she knows about this in the future, you will not contact her in the same city as her, and you will avoid her and not see her...... Hey, I don't think you should be able to think about it. ”
Xue Yuan was seen through by Xiao Luo's thoughts, and turned his head and glared at Xiao Luo viciously.
However, there is no refutation.
Zhou Yan looked at Xiao Luo, and then at Xue Yuan, and didn't even notice that Su Run silently came over and sat down next to her.
"Xiao Luo, you are also very familiar with this friend named Li Yanran?"
Xiao Luo shook his head: "I've never seen it." ”
"Huh? What about ......you?"
"Although I haven't seen it, even if I only paraphrase it from words, I can figure out most of my temperament. Xiao Luo said, raising his eyebrows and looking at Xue Yuan: "Right?"
Naturally, the person who "paraphrased words" is Xue Yuan.
Xiao Luo and Li Yanran are both people who have grown up with Xue Yun since childhood, but these two people have never met. When Li Yanran was young, she got along with Xue Yun and lived temporarily in the Xue family, under the care of Li Yanran's aunt, that is, Xue Yuan's mother Li Jinglan. Xiao Luo got along with Xue Yuan, but it was when Xue Yuan's father Xue Yu took Xue Yuan to the valley where his friend Xiao Ding lived in seclusion.
Li Yanran had never been taken to that valley by Xue Yu, and Xiao Luo had never come to Xue's house to take a look.
As a result, these two people who have accompanied Xue Yuan's growth, until today, can only know each other's existence from Xue Yuan's description.
Zhou Yan touched his chin: "...... I'm suddenly looking forward to it......"
Hearing Zhou Yan say "expectation", Xue Yun couldn't help but tense up.
Although she was a little nervous, if she was honest, in fact, she was also a little expectant.
She hadn't seen her in a long time......
At this time, Su Run, who was sitting next to Zhou Yan, opened his mouth and asked, "That other person, Li Yanning, do you know each other?"
Xiao Luo shrugged his shoulders and looked at Xue Yuan.
Xue Yun nodded: "I know, I can be regarded as familiar." Lime is ...... cough, it's Yanran's cousin, and she is the one who has the best relationship with Yanran among the juniors of the Li family, so she can be trusted. ”
Zhou Yan pursed his lips and looked at Su Run: "Do you know?" or ...... Interested in this Miss Li?"
Su Run glanced at Zhou Yan and said lightly: "It's just curious." ”
Zhou Yan choked and puffed out his cheeks: "Curious about what?"
"At this time, I suddenly came to Lingling City, it is said that I came to relax. Su Run picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup: "It's already worth being curious about." ”
“...... Do you think it might have something to do with Sioux Town?"
"Maybe. Su Run looked at Xue Yuan: "But since you know each other and can trust it, maybe it will be much easier." ”
Before Su Run's words fell, Xiao Luo interjected and asked, "Su Run, what's the news from the Demon Palace?"
Su Run has always been a man of few words, and he really doesn't have too much curiosity, so he took the initiative to ask the young lady of the Li family at this time, just because he wanted to try to find out the follow-up of the incident between the Streamer Grass Mountain Range and Su Zhen from them.
Some time ago, Su Run didn't even use the spirit bird, and changed the secret method next to him to contact his senior brother, Xiao Luo still knew, and now it seems that there is some response.
Su Run's face sank slightly: "...... Yesterday, my third senior brother summoned me to inquire and got a reply. The investigation of the ban of the Streamer Grass Mountain Range and the matter of Su Zhen, the Demon Temple is one of the earliest forces to go, and even to it. ”
"That ......"
"Avoid suspicion. ”
Xue Yun and Zhou Yan said together: "Avoid suspicion?"
"Su Zhen's matter is over, but in that mountain range, after the abnormal appearance appeared, only the special teleportation talisman of the Demon Hall and Shahai City, and the contact jade talisman could work, and this matter was also noticed by others. Shahai City did not send anyone to check, only the Demon Temple...... The Feng family and Xuanqingmen were quite suspicious of this, and united in one place to prevent the people of the Demon Hall from entering the mountain range and Su Zhen to investigate, saying...... Before confirming that the anomaly has nothing to do with the Demon Palace, let the Demon Temple not meddle in this matter, so as not to provoke suspicion and fall into the handle. ”
"Teleportation talisman, and jade talisman?" Xue Yu naturally remembered, the jade talisman was crushed by Xiao Luo before falling into the underground cave after using the Kunwu knife to kill the giant python. And the teleportation charm was used by Su Run to save the two of them when they left the mysterious valley in the deep mountains and went to the periphery to encounter the Jindan monk blocking the road and intercepting them.
Xue Yun heard Xiao Luo mention that the special teleportation talisman was a rare thing with the unique production method of the Demon Palace and Shahai City, but the jade talisman was also specially made by the Demon Hall and Shahai City, but she only knew it now.
Xiao Luo furrowed his brows slightly: "...... The Feng family and the Xuanqing Gate, the Tang family didn't stop it?"
Su Run nodded: "The Tang family did not make a clear statement to block the Demon Palace, but...... The Feng family and Xuanqingmen have a strong attitude, and it is impossible for the Tang family to oppose the other two for the sake of the Demon Palace, which can be regarded as acquiescence. ”
Xue Yun sighed: "The Tang family sounds really passive in this matter. ”
I just don't know...... What role did it play.
And also...... That Tang Wei Tang senior, as well as Granny Qian's son, Tang Ling.
Now is not the time to worry about the Tang family, there are no clues left and right, and it is not easy to explore for the time being, so it is useless to think too much. It's the Li family......
Because of the special teleportation talisman and jade talisman, the Demon Hall was blocked from the investigation by the Feng family and the Xuanqing Sect, which can be regarded as a reasonable move to avoid suspicion, so what is the situation of the Li family?
I really have to find a way to avoid others and contact Yanran and them.
Xue Yun gritted his teeth and thought hard.
......
Until Li Yanran and Li Yanning arrived in Lingling City the day after the news spread, Xue Yun could not find the right time and way to contact their sisters.
Li Yanran and Li Yanning, two sisters, were escorted to Lingling City, but after sending them there, most of the guards turned around and left, and only two remained in the Li Family Pavilion in Lingling City.
However, these two are both the cultivation of the Jindan period, one in the middle and the other in the late stage, they may not be the top in Lingling City, but in the name of the Li family in Cangzhou, it is enough for no one to provoke.
After Li Yanran and Li Yanning came to Lingling City, every day Li Yanran pulled Li Yanning out to hang out and play, a few days ago, at least one of the two Jindan cultivation guards would follow, and later, while seeing that there was no danger in Lingling City, on the other hand, it was also because of Li Yanran's strong protest, in the case that Li Yanran and Li Yanning both carried the jade talisman and magic weapon of emergency transmission, the two Jindan period guards no longer followed from time to time, and spent most of their time in the other garden to cultivate.
Zhou Yan secretly observed for several days, and it was not until he saw that the two Jin Dan guards of the Li family no longer followed Li Yanran and Li Yanning sisters all the time, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
If this continued, she would not be able to resist the idea of beating the two sisters under the noses of the two Jindan monks.
But......
Zhou Yan was on the second floor of the teahouse, watching Li Yanran pull Li Yanning all the way in the distance, and stopped in front of the small stall outside the teahouse. Li Yanning was obviously very interested in the gadgets on the stall, Li Yanran left her there, and after picking them out, she walked not far away to buy the small snacks that Li Yanning was very eager to eat when she came over two days ago.
Zhou Yan has been observing these two sisters for a few days, and the more she looks at them, the more interesting she feels, and the more she looks, the more she feels...... Envy.
Li Yanran's personality, from Xiao Luo's words that day and Xue Yuan's later reaction, Zhou Yan had some guesses, and when he saw her on the streets of Lingling City for the first time, he had a feeling of being like this.
Li Yanran was dressed in a bright red dress, with long boots, her long hair tied up high and tied into neat long braids, and there were not many accessories on her head, which was very simple. Her appearance is gorgeous and compelling, she is clearly a charming and charming facial features, but she can't see the slightest flattery, her eyes are extraordinarily bright, her temperament is sharp and pure, and the whole person is like a blade with thorns.
Li Yanran wore a long whip around her waist, and you could see from the little streamer that the long whip occasionally reflected the sunlight that it was not an ordinary thing to pretend, it was a rare high-grade magic weapon, I don't know if it was the natal magic weapon that Li Yanran had refined.
Once the magic weapon is sacrificed and refined by the cultivator as a natal object, it no longer needs to be placed in the storage items like other items, and can be stored in the dantian or the sea of knowledge, and can be called as you like. And the sacrificial cultivation of the natal magic weapon requires the cultivator to cultivate after reaching the foundation.
Cultivators rarely wear their weapons outside, those who have natal weapons are stored in the dantian knowledge sea, and those who don't have them are mostly collected in the storage items. Li Yanran's long whip is hanging on her waist, and I don't know why she has such a habit.
But I have to say that she put the long whip outside, which is really a bit of a difference to many people who see her...... The feeling of shock is in.
At least, after seeing the glowing whip, there were not many people who dared to stare at her.
Li Yanning and Li Yanran are completely different.
If Li Yanran carries a strong sense of impact with the rapids on the cliffside, Li Yanning is like a quietly flowing stream, calm and gentle, and even so low-key that it is easy to be ignored.
Li Yanning's appearance is just delicate, wearing a light yellow dress, often staying behind Li Yanran, and the expression on her face most often is a shy smile. She would deepen the curvature of the corners of her mouth when Li Yanran turned her head to look at her, looking at her sister with big eyes shining brightly, often just nodding and shaking her head when she didn't say much, like a harmless little rabbit.
Based on some of the news I've heard in Lingling City these days, it's not surprising that the two cousins have such a personality difference.
Li Yanran and Li Yanning are cousins who have a distant relationship, and they lost their parents many years ago and fell into an orphan situation in the Li family.
But Li Yanran is not the same as Li Yanning.
Li Yanran's cousin Li Jinglan, who had a good relationship with her father when she was a child, married into the Xue family in Mianzhou, and was the wife of Xue Yu, a very valued descendant of the Xue family at that time. In addition, her cousin Li Jinglan often takes her to live in Xue's house, and life is not difficult. When she grew up and Li Yanran showed her extraordinary cultivation talent, she did not have her cousin Li Jinglan, and she began to be valued in the Li family.
Li Yanning's father was originally not outstanding in the clan, and her mother was only the daughter of a small family with no background, and her own cultivation talent generally did not stand out from the Li family, which is full of talents, and she was ignored and even bullied since she was a child.
Until, when Li Yanning was bullied when she was ten years old, she ran into Li Yanran who was passing by.
Since then, there have been any juniors in the Li family who have bullied Li Yanning, and none of them have been whipped by Li Yanran.
"Sister. ”
Zhou Yan, who was on the second floor, heard Li Yanning, who was picking things up a little absentmindedly downstairs, and suddenly had a little relieved and happy voice.
"Come, taste it!" It turned out that Li Yanran bought a snack and walked back, pinched one and stuffed it into the mouth of the sister who was the first to find her back, and immediately smiled with starlight in her eyes.
"Hmm!
"That's good! We'll come back tomorrow to buy and eat. ”
"Well, thank you, Sister. ”
