Episode 369: Descending the Dragon
"Whew-"
The mountain wind is howling, and the cold is blowing.
The people of the Qin family supported each other and went down the mountain cautiously.
The quiet Taoist carried a lantern and led the way in front.
Along the way, everyone was curiously asking Luo Qingzhou and the others how they tamed the ancient beast.
Nangong Xueyi insisted: "It must be that Young Master Luo is too charming, and he convinces the other party without a fight, and the other party bows his head and takes the initiative to offer his own blood." β
Bai Ling said: "It must be my uncle's clever tongue that fooled the ancient beast, and then Chanchan took advantage of the maneuvering hand." β
Luo Qingzhou was annoyed by the question, so he said: "You ask Chanchan, I fainted as soon as I went in, and when I woke up, Chanchan had already taken Zhu Yanxue back." β
Xia Chan, who was following behind, glanced at him with a faint look.
When everyone asked her again, she said the same three words: "No, I know." β
The carriage was waiting at the foot of the mountain.
After the Qingyou Taoist sent the group down the mountain, he said goodbye and left.
Before leaving, he approached Luo Qingzhou and said in a low voice: "Young Master Luo, next time you come back, you can go directly to the back mountain, and no one will stop you." β
Luo Qingzhou thanked her, and after seeing her leave, Fang and Miss Qin prepared to get into the carriage behind.
Nangong Xueyi hurriedly said, "Young Master Luo, sit together." Boredom on the road, we can talk about "The Stone". I'm out for you today, and I haven't had a chance to talk to you yet, ...... Hmmm......"
Before she finished speaking, Nangong Meijiao directly covered her mouth and dragged her to the first carriage roughly.
Miss Qin Er couldn't help but laugh, waved her hand and said, "Brother-in-law, accompany my sister." β
After speaking, with the help of Zhu'er, he got into the first carriage.
Song Ruyue frowned, glanced at someone and her eldest daughter, hesitated, seemed to have something to say, but in the end she didn't say anything, and got into the carriage.
Luo Qingzhou followed behind Miss Qin and got into the second carriage.
After getting in the car, Bai Ling said crisply: "Uncle, can you tell others the truth?" How did you and Chanchan subdue that ancient beast? People are curious. β
Luo Qingzhou said: "Didn't you guess? Just like you said, my uncle is clever and skillful, and Chanchan's swordsmanship is unparalleled, and the cooperation between the two of us will be successful. β
Bai Ling suddenly pursed his lips and said, "Uncle is so perfunctory." β
Luo Qingzhou closed his eyes and ignored her.
Bai Ling glanced at him faintly, and couldn't help but think of the fact that he had been attacked and kissed by him every night.
Since she didn't let her uncle kiss him, her uncle's attitude towards her seems to have changed, and she is not as intimate as before.
"Stinky aunt, Aunt Se, if you don't let you be nervous, you will ignore others......"
She muttered to herself.
The carriage pulled into the main road and began to run.
Everyone was already exhausted, and in the bumps, they gradually closed their eyes.
After Luo Qingzhou saw that the carriage was quiet, Fang slowly opened his eyes and found that Miss Qin, who was sitting opposite, was looking at him.
The two looked at each other.
Qin Pujia's thick eyelashes moved, as if she wanted to avoid her gaze, but she felt too weak, so she still stared at him and said, "Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, what do you mean?" β
Luo Qingzhou was slightly stunned when he heard this, and saw that Xia Chan and Bai Ling next to him closed their eyes, and Fang whispered the story of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie.
Then he said: "Dreams are not dreams, they are not real." Sometimes dreams are like reality, and sometimes they are like dreams. β
Qin Pujia frowned slightly, falling into deep thought.
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Miss, I know that you have experienced some things before, so your temperament has become what it is now." In fact, the eldest lady can treat the original thing as a dream, forget it, and there is no need to think about it every day. Life has been rushing for decades, and wouldn't it be a pity to live in the shadow of the past and ignore the beauty of the present and tomorrow? β
Qin Pujia raised her eyes, looked at him quietly, was silent for a while, and said, "Don't you hate me?" β
When Luo Qingzhou heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Why should I hate the eldest lady?" Although the eldest lady was cold to me, she didn't ...... me after getting married Living together, they never treated me as a husband, but the eldest lady brought me a lot of things. It's fair to say that Fluttershy and I were saved by the eldest lady. I've always been grateful to the eldest lady in my heart, where can I hate it. β
Qin Pujia stared at him for another moment, and Fang said lightly, "I lied to you." β
Luo Qingzhou's eyes moved, glanced at the girl beside her, and said calmly: "The eldest lady did lie to me, but I am very content and grateful." β
Qin Pujia fell silent, looked at him quietly for a while, Fang withdrew his gaze, and slowly closed his eyes.
Luo Qingzhou was still staring at her flawless cheeks.
The night breeze blew the curtains, and the white moonlight fell on her flawless cheeks.
"Poof!"
Bai Ling suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle, don't drool." β
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, and then began to stare at her.
Bai Ling crossed his arms to his chest, without any timidity, and immediately had high morale, and he kept staring at him.
The two looked at each other, but neither spoke again.
The carriage was quiet again.
After a long time, Luo Qingzhou raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and said, "You won." β
Then he closed his eyes.
Bai Ling raised his chin triumphantly and closed his eyes.
When the carriage entered the city, the gates were about to close.
There are very few pedestrians on the streets.
At the door of the Qin family's mansion, Fluttershy and Qiu'er were already looking forward to it.
When three carriages drove in from the entrance of the alley, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
The carriage stopped at the gate.
Song Ruyue got out of the carriage and saw only a few maids standing at the door, her heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "What about the old man and the second son?" β
Qiu'er hurriedly replied: "Madam, the master and the second son have not come back yet." The slaves and maidservants were already waiting here when it was dark, and they did not see them. β
Qing'er, the daughter of Steward Zhou on the side, also said, "Madam, my father didn't come back either." β
Song Ruyue's face became ugly.
Nangong Meijiao walked behind and said, "Auntie, don't worry too much, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is much farther than Qingcheng Mountain, and it will take some time to go back and forth." And that nine-leaf clover may be produced deep in the mountains, and it may take some time to find. β
Song Ruyue hurriedly said: "Meijiao, but the city gate is about to close, what if they come back late and can't get in?" β
Nangong Xueyi also came over and comforted: "Auntie, there are many small towns and inns outside the city, and there are many places to rest, don't worry." They're all warriors, it's fine. β
Song Ruyue was a little relieved at this time, looked at their sisters and said, "It's not too early, and I don't know if the gate of the inner city is closed." Meijiao, Xueyi, you can stay here tonight and rest. β
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Xueyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said happily: "Okay, okay, auntie, we will stay with you tonight." β
As soon as the words fell, Nangong Meijiao grabbed her wrist, dragged her directly to the carriage, turned her head and said, "Auntie, we won't stay, so as not to worry about my father and mother." β
After speaking, he jumped into the carriage, forcibly pulled Nangong Xueyi, who was still struggling with the carriage, stuffed it into the carriage, and covered her mouth by the way.
"Hmm...... Uh-huh......"
Miss Qin Er couldn't help but smile, waved her hand at the car window, and said, "Sister Meijiao, Sister Xueyi, I'm bothering you today, go back and rest." β
Nangong Meijiao lowered the curtains.
The carriage departed immediately.
Watching the carriage disappear at the entrance of the alley, Miss Qin Er suddenly turned her head and looked at someone: "Brother Qingzhou, can you be more restrained in the future?" β
Luo Qingzhou was slightly stunned when he heard this, and wondered: "What do you converge on?" β
Miss Qin Er smiled: "Charm, brother-in-law's charm leaks out, it's very dangerous." β
Luo Qingzhou: "......"
"Ahem."
Song Ruyue coughed, frowned and said, "Let's go, go into the house." β
The group entered the courtyard.
The maids immediately went to the kitchen and brought out the food that was hot in the pot.
After eating, they each went back to their respective courtyards, and after taking a bath, they lay down on the bed tiredly.
Song Ruyue's tired whole body ached, and she was still worried about her master and son when she took a bath, and she fell asleep after lying down in bed.
After Miss Qin Er lay down on the bed, she took two drops of potion and quickly fell asleep.
Luo Qingzhou lay on the bed, hugged Fluttershy for a while, and talked for a while, without any sleepiness.
After the little girl fell asleep, he took out the communication treasure, thought about it, and was about to chat for a while, when the jade suddenly lit up, and a message was sent.
Sister Yue: [What are you doing?] γ
Luo Qingzhou was surprised that Sister Yue actually took the initiative to send him a message again.
Luo Qingzhou: [Lying in bed, I was just about to send you a message, do you want to listen to the story tonight?] γ
Sister Yue: [No, wait until I go, let's talk about it in person]
Luo Qingzhou said: [Sister Yue hasn't set off yet? How is Meaux doing now? Are there monsters in the city again? γ
Sister Yue: [I don't know]
Luo Qingzhou: [Okay, Sister Yue shouldn't care about these things]
Sister Yue: [How is your fiancΓ©e?] γ
Luo Qingzhou: [It's okay today, today we went to look for medicine.] By the way, Sister Yue, have you heard of a Monkey King that appeared in ancient times? γ
Sister Yue: [None]
Luo Qingzhou: [Oh, Sister Yue, I feel more and more that this world may be bigger, more complicated, and more terrifying than I imagined]
Sister Yue: [If you are afraid, you will continue to work hard to cultivate]
The two chatted for a while, and Fang ended,
Luo Qingzhou felt that Sister Yue tonight seemed to be in a good mood, although she still felt cold, but she had to answer all questions, at least it was better than the original.
Put away the Messenger Treasure.
He went out of his mind, flew through the roof, flew into the air, carefully observed the entire mansion and the surrounding streets for a while, and when he saw that there was nothing abnormal, he returned to the room, and his soul was gone.
I have to get up early tomorrow and go to Duanwang's Mansion to find the morning dew of the Xuantian Jade Maiden Tree, so let's go to bed early.
Fell asleep quickly.
One night passed quietly.
Following.
As soon as it was dawn, there was a sudden knock on Mei'er's door outside.
Fluttershy quickly dresses up and goes to open the door.
Mei'er said with an anxious face, "Fluttershy, let my uncle go to the front hall to meet, the old man and the second son have not come back yet, and the lady is very anxious." β
Luo Qingzhou heard the voice and immediately got up.
After a casual wash, I went out.
When they came to the hall, in addition to Song Ruyue, Miss Qin and Second Miss Qin had arrived, and Nangong Meijiao also came.
Several people were talking with solemn expressions.
"The city gate opened very early, the lord and Chuan'er will definitely not sleep in the inn at this time, even if there is something, they will send someone back to inform them. But there is no news yet, Weimo, Meijiao, do you think something will happen to them? β
Song Ruyue said with a worried and anxious face.
Luo Qingzhou entered from the door and comforted: "It's just dawn, wait a little longer, maybe it's on the way." β
Song Ruyue glanced at him, and said with a sad face: "I hope so." β
The maids brought morning tea.
A few people ate a little casually, and then went out of the courtyard, looking forward to it outside the gate.
Until the sun rose in mid-air, Qin Wenzheng and Qin Chuan still did not come back.
At this time, everyone's hearts began to feel uneasy.
Song Ruyue's face became more and more ugly.
Nangong Meijiao said in a deep voice: "Wait a little longer." β
And so on until the afternoon.
Song Ruyue's face turned pale, but she didn't speak again, her eyes were fixed on the alley not far away, standing motionless outside the gate.
Nangong Meijiao immediately made a decision and said, "Auntie, Weimo, you go back and rest first." I took people out of the city and went to the Cloud Mountains to have a look. β
As soon as these words came out, Song Ruyue's eyes suddenly turned red, and she was moved: "Meijiao, I'm going to trouble you again." β
"Your own family, you're welcome."
Nangong Meijiao didn't say anything more, and got into the carriage directly.
The carriage sped away from the alley.
The woman who drove the car said, "County Lord, let's go back to the house first and bring some guards, right?" β
Nangong Meijiao said in the car: "No, I can just go inside to hone it." I haven't been there since I was promoted to the martial artist realm. β
The woman hurriedly said, "County Lord, don't you even bring the Ninth Mama?" β
Nangong Meijiao said coldly: "Don't bring it, go quickly, go outside the city to change horses, and it will be dark no matter how verbose it is." β
The woman did not dare to say any more, but drove the carriage out of the city.
Song Ruyue returned to the mansion and sat in the hall in a daze.
After Luo Qingzhou sent Miss Qin Er back to Meixiang Garden, he was about to leave, when Miss Qin Er suddenly pulled him and said, "Brother Qingzhou, where are you going?" β
Luo Qingzhou was about to say that when he went back to study, he looked at her clear eyes, was silent for a while, and said, "Second Miss, I also want to go to the Cloud Mountain Range to have a look." β
Miss Qin Er looked at him softly for a while, let go of his hand, and said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, Weimo knows that our Qin family is indispensable to you, thank you......"
Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the room.
As soon as she walked to the door of the room, Miss Qin Er suddenly said again: "Brother Qingzhou, be careful......"
Luo Qingzhou turned around and said, "Hmm." β
Miss Qin Er suddenly laughed and said, "What Weimo said is to be careful of Sister Meijiao's whip...... Brother Chu Feiyang......"
Luo Qingzhou: "......"
