091 Born monk
"Sixth Senior Brother!" Zhang Bairong's eyes widened, looking at Zhen Yunrong's face that wanted to pretend that nothing happened, but because he was being carried by the neck, he couldn't succeed smoothly, and asked incredulously, "What are you doing behind me?" ”
"Senior brother?" Chen Shimei glanced at Zhen Yunrong in surprise, let go of her hand and asked, "You are also Wuweifeng." ”
Speaking of Senior Brother Chen...... How many years have you been out and practiced, and you don't even recognize Zhen Yunrong?
He is no better than Zhang Baihua, he has been a beginner for at least 20 years!
This Senior Brother Chen Shimei is also a well-known stranger in Xuanyin Sect, he doesn't like to cultivate immortals and loves to be an official, but he is talented, he has built a foundation at a young age, and he has never returned to the mountain since he went out to practice.
"Yes, Zhen Yunrong has seen Senior Brother Chen." Zhen Yunrong was free, and immediately said hello. It is okay to have a good relationship between senior brothers at the same peak, but he and this Senior Brother Chen have never met, so it is better to be respectful.
"There's no need to be polite," Chen Shimei shook his head, signaling that he didn't need to be so polite, and couldn't help but look at this strange pair of senior brothers and sisters-when the junior sister traveled down the mountain at a young age, but the senior brother followed behind, what is the trouble? "I'm also curious, why are you sneaking behind your junior sister?"
"Uh......" A hint of embarrassment appeared on Zhen Yunrong's face: "The master was afraid that she would have an accident, so he let me follow." ”
Chen Shimei nodded, this reason, it doesn't sound like a problem.
It's just that he has been in officialdom for decades, not to mention anything else, his eyes are the best at seeing. Zhang Baihua didn't say it, she should have noticed that someone was following her, but she didn't know it was him. But this Zhen Yunrong doesn't look like he's obeying his master's orders. He didn't seem to know that Zhang Baihua had entered his yamen in order to deliver a letter to him, and if he knew, he would have understood that it was very safe here, and he wouldn't sneak in.
Moreover, although he spoke clearly, only his eyes shook violently. Clarity is a manifestation of a weak heart.
He didn't say anything, pretending not to know and smiled: "How is this good, I thought it was a villain, but it caused you to be exposed in advance." ”
"It doesn't matter. Senior sister will always know. Zhen Yunrong hurriedly smiled and shook his head, he naturally couldn't blame Chen Shimei, after all, people also had good intentions, and he was afraid that someone would follow her because they wanted to harm her.
Zhang Baihua glanced at Zhen Yunrong thoughtfully: "In this way, the people who followed me before. Did my brother send it off for me? As soon as she left Anzhen County, Zhang Baihua felt more than one person behind her—since she discovered her own golden finger, her perception has become more and more sensitive. Those waves of people were clearly not together, always following her in a scattered and unhurried manner, but at some point, she found that she slowly began to decrease.
Especially after entering the scope of Wuzhou, she found that almost no one followed her anymore, but she still felt like she was being targeted - she thought at first that she had changed to a more intelligent person to follow her, but now that she thinks about it, it is probably Zhen Yunrong's relationship, right?
She hadn't thought about it. He would have come down the mountain with him.
In front of Chen Shimei, Zhang Baihua didn't show any emotion, they didn't do anything, it was better to solve it privately by themselves, don't let the senior brothers of the same sect show jokes.
After a while, Zhang Baihua offered to leave. Chen Shimei, as the capital of a state, is busy with affairs and has no time to entertain the two. What's more, he himself lives in the government, but he doesn't have a private house, even if he wants to entertain them. There was no reason for people to stay in the mansion, so they had to give up and give the two of them some spirit stone talismans to their bodies.
Zhang Baihua and Zhen Yunrong walked side by side, but for some reason they didn't speak.
The reason he said to Chen Shimei. She was completely unconvinced.
When she asked Qingyuan Zhenren to go down the mountain to practice, no one in the door knew about it at all, and Qingyuan Zhenren would not and did not need to tell other disciples, this kind of thing, in fact, as long as she made up her mind, there was no need to tell the world at all.
He certainly didn't know about her descent that day.
Even with Zhen Yunrong. They don't meet every day, it's normal not to meet, he found that she left the mountain, I'm afraid it will have to be three or five days. And she didn't realize that she was being followed before she arrived in Anzhen County, so she thought that he came down the mountain after her.
"Sixth Senior Brother, did you also go down the mountain to practice?" She glanced at him, as if she didn't know, and asked softly with a smile in her eyebrows. It's not that he can't feel his affection for her...... But the feeling was too inexplicable, so she couldn't help but worry. I used to be suspicious of him, and I always felt that his attitude towards "Zhang Baihua" was weird, if he found out one day that she was not the original "she", what would happen to him? For some reason, just thinking about it makes me shudder.
Her question relaxed Zhen Yunrong's tense nerves a little, and she nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I'm not about to build a foundation...... Master said that it would be more certain for me to go down the mountain for a while. ”
Is that really the case?
With the importance that Qingyuan Zhenren treats his disciple as a disciple, it is completely impossible to herd sheep and eat grass like her, right? Although Qingyuan Zhenren is more open-minded and uninhibited, everyone on Wuwei Peak knows that the senior brother will take over Wuwei Peak in the future, but Zhen Yunrong has the true inheritance of Qingyuan Zhenren and is a candidate to inherit his mantle.
Treating these two disciples, he is much more cautious than others, even his daughter Zhang Xinwei is not as good as the status of the two in his heart.
It's not that he doesn't love his daughter, it's that the nature of a monk is like this, and he values the heir of the mantle more than his children. Of course, if Zhang Xinwei was good enough, she would have had the opportunity to become his successor, but unfortunately after years of observation, he found that his daughter was not suitable.
And the reason for not being suitable, Zhang Baihua is the one who has the deepest experience.
Zhang Xinwei is the most naïve one of the several "traversers" she has seen, perhaps because she was born too well, and there is a peak master as her father, she has been held in the palm of her hand "since she was a child", and she has hardly suffered a setback. The traverser herself will have a little unrealistic fantasy about herself, and the smooth start makes her begin to believe that she is the heroine with "good luck...... The only thing to be thankful for is that she seems to be very content with reality and does not have much desire to conquer the outside world.
To put it simply, she is actually lazy, and as long as she meets her definition of a happy life, she will not take the initiative to make changes.
Zhang Baihua guessed that she was a tech nerd in her last life more likely than any other profession.
Zhang Baihua has been practicing penance for ten years, but occasionally when she goes out, she always hears all kinds of news about Zhang Xinwei from various peaks. She seems to be committed to building herself into the image of the spokesperson of Wuwei Peak, and Qingyuan Zhenren, who understands her thoughts, does not prevent her from doing so - her character is not suitable for cultivation, and he does not force it, isn't it good to let her do what she wants to do and live happily for the rest of her life?
With such an open-minded father, how lucky is Zhang Xinwei?
Envy cannot be envied.
Thinking of his "biological father" who once regarded him as nothing, Zhang Baihua sighed weakly. The family also knew that people would come to visit her from time to time, and of course determining her status in the Xuanyin Sect was also one of the reasons, but her father didn't seem to care about her as a daughter, and in the past ten years, no one had ever brought her a word.
Zhang Baihua glanced at Zhen Yunrong with a side face, he shouldn't be a traverser, but like a reborn person, if it's true, I don't know - how was he before he was reborn?
When I first met, he seemed to have always been very sunny, smiling, gentle, and didn't show any psychological shadows. He has a good relationship with his brothers on Jiluo Mountain, Zhang Xinwei also likes him very much, he simply treats him as his own brother, he is also interested in his performance, and he works hard, he is completely a good baby, the only thing that is a little strange is his dedication to "Zhang Baihua".
He has always been Zhang Baihua's heart disease.
She didn't know how much he knew about that "Zhang Baihua", what kind of relationship he had with her, how the two of them intersected, and why he "spoiled" each other unconditionally.
The way he looked at her was obviously not love.
Even if she has never been in love, Zhang Baihua still knows the difference between liking and loving.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Something on my face? Sensing her gaze, Zhen Yunrong couldn't help but ask.
"No, I'm just glad I ran into you, senior brother!" Zhang Baihua shook her head and withdrew her gaze. Although she didn't like the feeling of being spied on by him all the time, more often than not, she was more willing to think about the good side, after all, he was not an enemy, so she smiled: "If it weren't for Senior Brother, I wouldn't have been able to deal with those people who were following me." ”
"How do you know someone is following you? Have you seen them? ”
"I can't say it, it's like intuition, I just feel like someone is staring at me." Zhang Baihua shook his head.
"That's a good thing, it's better to have a sharp sense than to be aware of nothing." Zhen Yunrong nodded, and couldn't help but preach: "It's just that you are too reckless this time, and you dare to run down the mountain when you are only at the fourth level of qi refining." ”
What happened to the fourth layer of Qi refining? Didn't those casual practices be out there from the beginning?
Zhang Baihua moved her mouth, but still didn't refute, just said: "My talent is not as good as that of my senior brother, if I just blindly stay in the master's gate, I am afraid that until the day I die, I will only build a foundation." Since God has given me a spiritual root, I must not complain about my life, and I must work hard to be willing. ”
"No wonder Master always says that you are a natural monk." It's a pity that the talent is a little worse, and Zhen Yunrong didn't say anything in the second half of the sentence.
Zhang Baihua didn't expect Qingyuan Zhenren to comment on himself like this, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised for a while. (To be continued.) )
