Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sprout of Thoughts

The two young ladies of the Li family who came to Lingling City to relax, Li Yanran and Li Yanning, heard a pleasant tune outside the teahouse that day, and then met a girl who was also a cultivator who hummed this tune in the teahouse. The more the three of them chatted at first sight, the more speculative they became, of course, the main thing was that Li Yanran and Zhou Yan, who had just met, chatted very speculatively, and most of the time Li Yanning was smiling and listening to whether to add a cup of tea to her sister.

The three girls who are also cultivators can talk very well, and they have often wandered around Lingling City together for two days after they have known each other, and Miss Zhou Yan also left behind the young man who had gone out with her some time ago, as if it was her brother. On the third day, Zhou Yan was invited by Li Yanran and Li Yanning to go to the Li family's villa in Lingling City, and on the fourth day, Zhou Yan invited him back and took the sisters to the small courtyard where he and his "brother" temporarily lived.

It had been a few days of detour, and although it was not foolproof, it was the best way they could think of now.

Xue Yun stood by the door of the inner courtyard, twisting his fingers with some expectation and some nervousness, a little anxiously waiting for Zhou Yan to bring people back according to the plan.

In order to give the girls space to catch up, Xiao Luo and Su Run did not come to mingle, in the pavilion not far from the outer courtyard, and the two sisters Li Yanran who were brought by Zhou Yan bowed their hands and saw Li Yanran, who was quite anxious, pulled Li Yanning into the inner courtyard, Zhou Yan also did not bother with a sense of relief of "finally completing the task", and stayed in the pavilion in the outer courtyard like the two of them.

But......

Xiao Luo felt that Li Yanran glared at him a few more times before leaving...... It shouldn't be his delusion.

Xue Yun waited in the inner courtyard and couldn't help but turn in circles, and when the footsteps came from the outer courtyard, Xue Yuan raised his eyes suddenly, biting his lip, his eyes were slightly hot.

Xue Yuan looked at the figure striding towards him, opened his mouth, and the words he had thought of before were all blocked in his throat at this time.

Li Yanran strode over, stood still in front of Xue Yuan, her red skirt was still floating in the air, she gritted her teeth and stared at Xue Yuan's face, one hand tightly grasped the long whip at her waist.

The first to speak out was Li Yanning.

Li Yanning looked at Li Yanran, then looked at Xue Yuan opposite, showed a shy smile, and said softly: "Sister Xue Yuan." ”

Li Yanning's voice brought both Li Yanran and Xue Yun back to their senses, and Xue Yuan's previous excitement was quickly covered with apprehension.

Xue Yun first smiled at Li Yanning, and then slowly turned his head to look at Li Yanran, who was staring at him without speaking, his voice trembling slightly: "...... Fascinating...... Sweet...... Long...... Missing. ”

Li Yanran directly raised her hand and stretched out a finger to poke Xue Yuan's head fiercely.

"Oops!"

"You still dare to scream in pain!" Li Yanran raised her eyebrows: "Okay, you, Xue Yuan, can you bear it! Pretend to be dead and run out of Mianzhou alone, swaying all over Kyushu! I haven't seen you for a long time! I see that you have forgotten about me!"

"I ...... I didn't ......."

"You tell me the truth, if it weren't for the fact that Yan Ning and I happened to come to Lingling City this time, and you happened to be here, wouldn't you still be going to contact me!

Li Yanran's voice became louder and louder, and she almost roared out at the end.

Xue Yun looked at Li Yanran's red and even flashing eyes, and lowered his head silently: "...... I'm sorry. ”

"You!"

"Sister. Li Yanning stretched out her hand and gently tugged at Li Yanran's sleeve, who was already on the verge of breaking out: "Sister Xue Yuan, I don't want you to worry, I don't want you to be embarrassed." After leaving Mianzhou for so long, she has also encountered a lot of things, and it is not easy at all. ”

Li Yanran took two deep breaths, closed her eyes to endure the tears in her eyes, turned her head and continued to stare at Xue Yuan: "Today...... I'll let you go today, but ...... I've memorized this account, and it's not so easy to get through!"

Xue Yun sniffed and nodded: "Okay, I know." ”

Li Yanran stretched out the hand that had poked her forehead hard just now towards Xue Yuan, and when Xue Yuan closed her eyes tightly and was ready to take another beat, she turned to the top of her head, grabbing and rubbing the ground, and ...... fiercely

Messed up her hair.

When Xue Yun reacted in a daze and opened his eyes, he looked at Li Yanran and laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha!" Li Yanran's laughter became louder and louder: "Little crazy woman!hahahahahaha!"

Xue Yun took a deep breath after seeing Li Yanning beside Li Yanran also pursed her lips and looked away...... Endured.

Anyway, she was at fault in the first place...... Only...... Forget it......

......

Li Yanning left on the pretext of helping them make tea, and after going to the outer courtyard to find the only Zhou Yan who was quite familiar, there were only Li Yanran and her left in the inner courtyard.

Although they wanted to ask Li Yanran and Li Yanning sisters about something, in the final analysis, they were not familiar with the two sisters together with Zhou Yan, who had been in contact for two days, so they left the space to Xue Yuan. Li Yanning left for the same reason, even if they are acquainted, her relationship with Xue Yun cannot be compared with Li Yanran and Xue Yuan.

Xue Yun asked Li Yanran alone, and he could still be regarded as finding out the news from her, and he could still put Li Yanran's sisters out of the range. If everybody sits in one place and talks, it's ...... Dragged the two sisters into their troubles.

If it weren't for the accident after Su Zhen's ban, Su Run didn't say it for the time being, Xue Yun didn't intend to let Zhou Yan, who had nothing to do with these things, fall into it.

In Xue Yuan's room, Li Yanran sat down, and asked without waiting for Xue Yuan to ask: "You came from Su Zhen where the accident happened, but what danger did you encounter?"

Li Yanran and Xue Yun naturally didn't need to make any more detours, and as soon as they sat down, they directly opened their mouths.

Xue Yun paused: "Ah Yan told you?"

Li Yanran shrugged her shoulders: "No, she didn't say it, all she told us was the news that you were in Lingling City, and she could take us to meet you." ”

Xue Yun was silent for a moment: "...... Yan Lemon set out?"

"Ha! yes, Xiaoxuan, the reaction is very fast. ”

Li Yanran, who has known each other for many years, has always been the kind of person who is used to being straightforward and accustomed to breaking the law with force. Of course, to put it more bluntly, those who can do it will never move around in circles.

But Zhou Yan ...... After all, they are Xue Yuan's friends, and it seems that they are already good friends, so it is naturally difficult to do it.

Li Yanning, as Li Yanran's favorite and most protective sister, can be regarded as the one in the Li family who is most familiar with Xue Yuan besides Li Yanran.

Li Yanran is extremely talented, cultivates hard, cultivates very quickly, and now the foundation is almost complete, a little higher than Xiao Luo before the injury, and the exercises are sharp and sharp, so that it is not a sword, but it can use a long whip more sharply than a sword, so she acts with strength first, but Li Yanning is different.

Li Yanning's talent can only be regarded as average, her cultivation is not high, and her skills are only mediocre, and there is nothing outstanding in her martial arts. Compared with the flamboyant and dazzling Li Yanran, Li Yanning is low-key and quiet, but her mind is very delicate, and she is very good at observation and speculation...... When Xue Yun tried to hide Li Yanran's thoughts, if Li Yanning was there, he had to find a way to bribe Li Yanning first......

Although she didn't succeed once, she "rebelled" against the first sister in the sky and the earth.

At this time, Li Yanran and Li Yanning were in contact with Zhou Yan together, Zhou Yan felt that he didn't say anything, and Li Yanran also said that Zhou Yan didn't say anything, but since Li Yanning was in ......

"But your friend is pretty good. Li Yanran looked at Xue Yun and raised her eyebrows and said, "After contacting each other in the past two days, I have found out the news that several of you are from Su Zhen, and the rest ...... She hid it quite tightly, and her vigilance was really not enough, but she subconsciously bit it very tightly. didn't come up with more news, and Yan Ning was still a little discouraged. ”

Xue Yun smiled: "Ah Yan is already better than me." ”

“...... It's better than you used to be. Li Yanran looked straight at Xue Yuan: "You are different from the past." ”

Xue Yuan's hand on his lap tightened slightly.

"Yan Ning said, you probably want to ask about the matter over there in Su Zhen and the news from the Li family. Li Yanran squinted her eyes, her emotions were a little turbulent, she took a deep breath and calmed down a little, and said to Xue Yuan, who came over: "Li family...... It really didn't go. ”

"Didn't go?"

“...... I was stumped, and the exact thing was not spread among the clan, and I didn't hear the exact news. But...... It has some relationship with the Feng family, and it has not been resolved until now, and Yan Ning and I ...... It can be regarded as this reason that I came to Lingling City. ”

Xue Yun looked at Li Yanran's obviously not very good-looking face, and also frowned.

More on that later. Li Yanran let out a long breath and turned to Xue Yuan: "The Li family didn't go to investigate, and they didn't know much about what was going on over there. Where did you come back, what happened over there? Looks ...... It's a big influence on you, and I want to hear about it. ”

......

Li Yanran sat quietly on the side, listening to Xue Zhen lowering his eyes slightly, and finished telling Su Zhen's story.

From the beginning when she and her friends were trapped in Sioux Town, which is said to have an epidemic, to the final escape with difficulty.

Li Yanran frowned slightly, but she didn't rush to ask her why she ran to the junction of Qiaozhou and Cangzhou after leaving Mianzhou, nor did she ask them in detail about how to break the formation after being trapped in Suzhen, but looked at Xue Yun with a little worry, opened her mouth and asked softly, "You haven't let it go yet?"

"Drop?"

"Yes, it's gone. Li Yanran's expression did not move: "If you read it, you should only read it, the truth that has not yet been found out, and the crisis that may be hidden behind it." Other...... Passed. ”

Xue Yun was stunned for a moment, and slowly closed his eyes: "Should I put it down?" Yanran, I don't understand. ”

"Don't understand what?"

“...... In Suzhen, there are more than 20,000 people, all kinds of people. Everyone has their own relatives and friends, has their own lives, and should be ...... Have a future of their own. It's like...... is like Granny Qian who is waiting for her to come home outside the town, like an old uncle in the yard next door who is looking forward to his grandson growing up, and like a couple in the next room who are talking about what name the soon-to-be-born child will be called...... There are also vendors in the town who sell food and save money to celebrate the widowed mother's birthday, and ......"

"Xiaoxuan. ”

Xue Yun was interrupted by Li Yanran, raised her head and looked at her, tears rolled in her eyes, blinked, and was forced back by herself: "The first time I stayed away from Mianzhou, the first time, not just to play and hang out, the first time, I really saw it...... They are as they are. One by one, although they are ordinary people, although they are small people, they are all alive and full of vitality. ”

“...... So?"

"The people who took out the evil array tricked Qishan back into making a deal, but it was these ordinary people who had nothing to do with it who really paid the price for the transaction between them. Unconsciously, they fell victim to their trades...... Why?"

Li Yanran calmly looked at Xue Yuan, whose eyes were red: "...... Because they are weak, they are not feared, they are not cared for, they are not taken seriously. ”

Xue Yun laughed: "Heh, the weak? If you are strong, you can trample on it without care, if you are weak, you don't deserve the right to choose for yourself, so you deserve to be the sacrifice of others, do you deserve to die?"

Li Yanran's expression did not move at all, and even a little indifferent: "Xiaoxuan, this is the rule of this world, you just, just realized." ”

Xue Yuan's eyes widened, looking at the friend who grew up with him in front of him, a little dazed and a little strange.

After being silent for a long time, Xue Yun shook his head slowly: "No...... It shouldn't be like this. ”

"You're upset for them?"

“...... Sweet. Xue Yu took a deep breath: "Is strength and weakness the justice that should exist in this world?"

"Justice?" Li Yanran provoked a sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth: "Only when you are strong enough, do you have the right to choose, and you are qualified to say the word 'justice'." ”

That's why she worked so hard to make herself stronger, to grow herself, to be able to stand tall.

At least...... Let herself, the people she cares about, and the people she cares about be saved from the fate of being trampled on.

“...... Just like the talent of cultivation, some people have it, some people don't, some people are high, and some people are low. Not everyone can become a strong person, so what about those who can't reach that height? In a lifetime, there will be no justice at all?" Xue Yuan's voice was a little hoarse, as if he was asking, and as if he was talking to himself: "The truths in the book are just ...... Is it just a pattern dotted on the jade slips of paper?"

Li Yanran looked at Xue Yun deeply, was silent for a long time, and suddenly chuckled.

"Yanran?"

"Auntie is right. Li Yanran sighed and slowly closed her eyes: "She said before, you...... The heart is very soft, but the temperament is hard, I didn't understand it when I was a child, but now, I can see it clearly. ”

"I ......"

"Xiaoyun, this kind of thing is here for me, after a sigh, it will only become the motivation for me to urge myself to continue to become stronger and get out of this situation, as for other people, I can't control it, and I don't want to care about it. What about you?"

"I ......" Xue Yun lowered his eyes, and there was a thought in his mind, which flashed: "I want to ......"
