Chapter 272: A Jade Box
Changxing was stunned, and turned his head to look at Chen Jian.
Chen Jian stood by the courtyard gate, his eyes calmly looking straight at Changxing.
The two were silent for a moment, Changxing suddenly smiled slightly, and walked towards the small courtyard: "It's just right, I'm also thirsty." ”
A smile also appeared on Chen Jian's pale face, and he made a "please" posture sideways, and took the lead in walking towards the courtyard.
There are only three tile houses in the small courtyard, and there is a medicine garden in one corner of the courtyard, in which a few ridges of spiritual grass are planted, all of which are spiritual grasses with short cycles and do not need special care. In the other corner of the yard is a begonia, which is not in flowering at this time, and the canopy is densely covered with leaves, and the eye is full of green, and under the tree is a stone table and several stone benches.
Chen Jian pointed to the stone bench in the courtyard and said, "Senior Sister Meng, please feel free to sit, I'll be here soon." With that, he walked briskly into the room.
Changxing stretched out his hand and stroked the trunk of the begonia tree, his thoughts wandered, and he vaguely returned to the small courtyard of Xiuchun Peak in Zixiamen, the begonias were crimson, and there was a dark fragrance floating......
"Let Senior Sister Meng wait for a long time!"
Chen Jian's voice sounded, Changxing's subordinates paused, turned around, and saw that Chen Jian had changed his clothes again, his appearance had also been taken care of, and he should have also taken healing pills, and his face looked like a trace of blood.
The two sat down at the stone table, and Chen Jian took out a small tandoor and jug from the storage bag, and placed them on the stone table to prepare to make tea.
"I have been trained since I was a child, and my resistance to drugs and illusions is stronger than that of ordinary monks, so when I was on the ship, I woke up briefly for a while, and happened to see Senior Sister Meng take action against the big blue shark. Chen Jian put the spiritual spring water into the water inlet tank, his expression was meticulous, and he didn't look up at Changxing: "Senior Sister Meng's shot is still so neat. ”
Changxing smiled, noncommittal.
"That's exactly the same technique you used to use the Ice Moon Wheel. Chen Jian closed the lid of the pot and looked up at Changxing: "Just that moment, I am sure that you are Senior Sister Meng. ”
Changxing's doubts in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he immediately understood that this was Chen Jian explaining to himself how he found himself, so he smiled slightly: "Senior Brother Chen is still so careful. ”
Chen Jian also smiled, his gaze slid from Changxing to the begonia tree behind her: "This is already instinct." ”
What he said was very meaningful, and Changxing guessed that it had something to do with his previous identity as a secret pile, so he didn't ask questions, just listened to him.
Unexpectedly, Chen Jian suddenly looked at her and asked, "How did Senior Sister Meng find out about my identity? I mean, back then, how did you know that I was an agent of the Jiang family?"
Changxing did not hide it: "Once when I went down the mountain, in Zixia City, I saw you talking to a female cultivator, and that female cultivator ...... I had already seen her in the Jiang family's Lingzhou Tour. ”
"So that's the case?" Chen Jian looked at Changxing in some surprise, and was silent for a moment before saying, "That's my sister." ”
"Sister, you mean Abi?"
"Hmm. Chen Jian nodded: "My sister and I have been without parents since we were children, living on the streets, begging for a living, being bullied, unable to protect ourselves at all, and starvation and beatings are commonplace." ”
"Once, we didn't get anything to eat for three days, and my sister was dying of hunger...... Almost dead. Finally, a kind person threw us a steamed bun, I was very happy, hurriedly picked up the steamed bun, and wanted to feed it to my sister, but the steamed bun was snatched away by other beggars around, I went crazy and wanted to snatch the steamed bun back, but after all
It was a small person, not only did he not snatch back the steamed buns, but he was also beaten half to death. ”
"Our brother and sister hugged their heads and snuggled together, and they didn't even have the strength to cry, just when they were most desperate, the seventh prince appeared, he said that we have spiritual roots, as long as we follow him and do things for him, we will never go hungry again in the future, and we will not be bullied......"
"We entered the Chen family, and in order to repay the kindness of my son's life, my sister and I practiced hard...... Later, I was sent to Zixiamen to learn art, and my sister was arranged to work in the Lingzhou Walk. ”
Chen Jian's eyes kept looking at the begonia tree, and his tone was also very calm, as if he was telling someone else's story, without the slightest wave.
"I have always lurked in Zixiamen, treated my fellow disciples well, and made a wide range of friends, just like a real ordinary disciple of a famous family...... Until one day, I received an order. ”
Chen Jian finally moved, his gaze turned from the begonia tree to Changxing: "That order is to secretly watch your every move, and report any abnormal movements in time." ”
On the stone table, steam was already coming out of the spout, Chen Jian opened the lid of the kettle, took out another cup from the storage bag, a bag of spiritual tea, and began to brew tea.
"I have a good relationship with Pei Ying and Zheng Youcai, so it's logical to approach you, but I have been observing for so long, but I have never found any useful news......" Chen Jian handed Changxing a cup of tea and picked it up himself.
Later, Childe ...... He rebuked me. Chen Jian subconsciously clenched his fists: "Presumably, Senior Sister Meng already knows." ”
Changxing nodded.
"Then I was sent to other places, and there is no such person as Chen Jian in the world. Chen Jian's head lowered slightly, and the rising mist blurred his eyebrows: "Later, when performing a mission, I was seriously injured and fell off the cliff, but I didn't expect that I got a chance because of this, not only erased the control and prohibition in my body, but also came down to Dongyanzhou by chance." ”
After that, I changed my name and settled in the East China Sea. Chen Jian said, took a sip of the teacup, slowly put it down, and looked at Chen Jian: "Senior Sister Meng can now become a closed disciple of Jianyang Zhenjun, which shows that the blessing is profound. ”
Changxing picked up the teacup to hide the surprise in his eyes, and then he understood: The album of the 100-person list is widely circulated in the East China Sea, and it is not difficult for him to guess when he sees my portrait.
Changxing lowered his head and took a sip, the tea entered his throat, it turned out to be the best spiritual tea, and a trace of spiritual power slowly flowed to the dantian with the tea: "I have already left Zixiamen, and I came to Dongyanzhou unintentionally a year ago, thanks to my master's refusal to abandon it, and accepted as a disciple, it is really the greatest blessing in my life." ”
Chen Jian nodded, he naturally knew that what Changxing said was light and light, but the hardships in it would never be as simple as the words.
The two of them sat under the tree, sipping fragrant tea, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, and were a little stunned for a while, until a gust of wind blew, and they suddenly realized that almost two hours had passed.
Changxing remembered Shanshan, got up to say goodbye, Chen Jian took out a small jade bottle from the storage bag and handed it to Changxing: "Here are three Bisheng Pills, which are unique pills in the East China Sea, and have the effect of healing and detoxifying." ”
This value is about the same as the elixir he gave him to heal, Changxing saw this, and he didn't shirk it, he didn't want to owe favors, so why should he increase his burden.
Changxing said goodbye and walked towards the courtyard gate, but Chen Jian suddenly said again: "Senior Sister Meng, please stay!"
Changxing turned around, and Chen Jian was slightly one
hesitated, and then said, "Senior Sister Meng will sit down for a while." As he spoke, he hurried to the room, Changxing was puzzled, but he still returned to the stone table and sat down.
After a while, I saw Chen Jian walking out with a black and red box.
When Changxing saw the box, his heart beat uncontrollably.
Chen Jian handed the box in his hand to Changxing: "That mission, is to find this thing, at that time, nearly 100 of us formed a formation to get close to this thing, and finally although we obtained this thing, but the whole army was wiped out, if I didn't fall off the cliff to get the chance, I'm afraid that I would have already been a dry bone, and it's useless for me to keep this thing, so give it to Senior Sister Meng." ”
Changxing took it with both hands, did not open it, and directly put it into the Qiankun ring. He also took out a small shield, a bottle of healing elixir, and a superb spirit stone from the Qiankun Ring, which were open in a row on the stone table.
This small shield, after the sacrifice, can be as the master wishes, can be large or small, it is very convenient to use, it is a meeting gift given by a Yuanying Zhenjun in the door, although the grade does not meet the standard of spiritual weapons, but the foundation building monk uses, it is more than enough, as for the healing elixir, Chen Jian is now just using it.
Chen Jian was slightly stunned: "I'm not ......"
"I know. Changxing had already interrupted him and said, "Don't hide it from Senior Brother Chen, this thing is very important to me, and these magic weapons and pills are just a thank you gift from me." ”
Chen Jian was a little helpless, but he didn't shirk it again, waved his hand, put the things on the table into the storage bag, and said, "Then I'll be disrespectful." ”
Changxing smiled and said goodbye: "There is a lot of trouble today, so I will leave here!"
This time, Chen Jian didn't stop it again, and only watched Changxing's figure disappear at the mouth of the alley.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Chen Jian and Changxing didn't want each other's communication charms, today's scene was like a bird that unintentionally swept its wings in the middle of the lake, causing layers of ripples, but they didn't stop, and when the ripples disappeared, the lake returned to its former calm, and nothing came.
Chen Jian turned around and entered the house, carefully packed up his things, erased all traces, and disappeared into the alley at night.
When Changxing hurried back to the dock, it was already dark, and there were thousands of ships docked by the dock, and the various lights on the ships dotted the harbor with extraordinary beauty.
Shanshan waited for a long time, so she could only look at the night scene outside the window to comfort herself, and she was very happy to see Changxing come back, but then she sank her face and stared wide: "Hmph!
Shanshan had a very high status in the clan, and developed a willful and brutal princess temper, and now she is a spirit animal, although she has been restrained, but in the end, it is a child's heart, and if she is not satisfied, it is easy to explode.
"Okay! I'm on business!" Changxing said with a smile, taking out a bunch of things from the storage bag, eating, playing, wearing, and wearing, piling up a small mountain on the floor in front of Shanshan.
"Ah, I'm thinking about you when I'm doing business!" Changxing picked up a bag of pastries from the 'hill', took out a piece, and fed it to Shanshan's mouth: "Eat it!
Shanshan licked her lips, bit down on the pastry, and said vaguely, "I'll forgive you this time!" Before the words fell, she was already rummaging in the 'hill', and let out a burst of exclamations from time to time.
Changxing returned to the room and set up a ban to prevent Shanshan from suddenly breaking in, so he took out the box from the Qiankun Ring, put it on the table, and slowly opened it.
