Chapter Fifty-Eight: Throbbing
Yu Yao saw that it was getting late, so she retired first.
She asked about the room of the three of them, and then turned around and walked to the other side, the people of the City Lord's Mansion were very well-trained, and they could see that they had practiced martial arts during their actions.
Yu Yao passed by the rockery corridor and looked at the courtyard in front of her.
The doorway said Welcoming Courtyard, and she knew she was not in the wrong place, and walked in. Before she entered the room, she heard the conversation between Linglong and Wuwu, and the two were still worried about themselves, and their hearts were slightly warm.
As soon as he raised his hand to knock on the door, the little one opened the door, saw himself, and pounced happily.
Yu Yao took the opportunity to pick her up and enter the house, and saw Linglong'er leaning on the chaise longue, leisurely knocking on the spirit drops, and she had no conscience.
She shook her head and told the other party to rest early, there was something to do tomorrow.
Linglong'er glanced at her, and said mercilessly: "Yo, some big people are willing to condescend to come to the cold house, it's really a blessing for three lives." After speaking, he also swallowed a spirit drop fiercely.
Yu Yao hugged the child, felt that she was incivil, shook her head, and was a little funny. I only left a sentence to go to bed early and left.
She took the child to the next room, asked the next person to prepare for the bath, asked her if she needed help, saw her shake her head, and left.
Yu Yao took off her coat and put down the waterfall-like green silk in her middle coat. She pinched a cleansing technique, lowered her hands, and was about to dry Sansso's hair later. She didn't lie down directly, but walked to the window, pushed open the screen, looked at the bright moon in the sky, listened to the insects in the yard, and calmed down.
Hearing footsteps behind him, he closed the screen and turned to look at the little one with a smile.
Her hair was wet, and her eyes were clearer and brighter after bathing, and she was looking at herself steadily.
Yu Yao sat down and put the other party on the couch, she was docile, not troublesome, and twisted the silk to dry her hair.
"Aunt Yuyao, are you an immortal?"
Yu Yao was not surprised to hear her ask this. The three of them, judging from their appearance and temperament, were indeed very different from mortals. But if it is said that it is an immortal, it is nonsense.
After a moment's thought, she tilted her head and said, "It's not an immortal, it's between a mortal and an immortal, a spiritual cultivator. Aunt Linglong and Uncle Han and I all need to cultivate, no matter how difficult we encounter, we must persevere, and one day we may be able to become immortals. ”
The little milk baby nodded, and also asked another question: "Immortals can live forever, what about Aunt Yuyao? Will you be old?"
Yu Yao touched her hair, and when she saw that it had been wrung out, she pulled her and watched her crawl on the bed and lie down before she lay on the outside.
Seeing that she was still looking at herself, she covered the two of them with a quilt before continuing to answer: "Aunt Yuyao will also be old, but if my cultivation is higher, then I will age more slowly," Seeing that her eyes were a little puzzled, she explained more specifically, "The people of the Dayan Dynasty, after the age of forty, are moving towards aging. And immortal cultivators, like Aunt Yuyao, will only move towards aging after the age of four hundred. ”
Wuwu nodded as if he didn't understand, and mentioned another matter: "Aunt Linglong saw that you were taken away today, and she was very anxious and almost cried." Uncle Han and I persuaded her for three or four hours before she gave up looking for you. Now that I think about it, I like her a little bit more than I did yesterday. ”
When Yu Yao heard this, a heat flowed in her heart, her eyes were astringent, and she asked with a smile: "Then you will play with Aunt Linglong more tomorrow and let her learn from you, okay?"
Carefree yawned and muttered, Aunt Linglong was immature, so she fell asleep.
Seeing that she was asleep, Yu Yao got up and walked to the courtyard and continued to practice the Chaos Five Forging Method, she had already practiced to the third layer, forging blood.
............
The next day, Yu Yao was holding a stone hammer in the courtyard, and when she saw Wu Wu, she opened the door, rubbed the corners of her eyes, and looked at herself with sleepy eyes.
Yu Yao finished today's homework, wiped her sweat, and then pulled the other party into the house.
After the two of them cleaned up, the next person had already set up the breakfast, and the two were carrying the chopsticks to eat, when they saw the master enter the door, followed by Linglong and Kyushu Han, she hurriedly beckoned a few people together.
After a while, Linglong'er looked at the two in front of her, feeling a little weird, Yu Yao and her master were picking vegetables with each other, and they were quite familiar with each other's tastes. The two of them have a really good relationship, she has only seen this kind of scene on her father.
After the group finished eating, they went to visit the city lord Mo Youming.
As soon as Mo Youming entered the hall, he saw so many people looking at him in unison, and he was very surprised in his heart, but his face was as usual.
He first saluted the national teacher, then bowed to the immortal lord, nodded to the others, and then sat down and looked at a few people.
Ling Anfeng had already found out the matter, but he still wanted to test Yu Yao, and said to Mo Youming straight to the point: "This is my apprentice, she is in charge of investigating this matter, you tell her." After saying that, he closed his eyes and recuperated himself, and said no more.
Mo Youming scolded secretly, obviously found out the truth, and asked the apprentice to investigate, making it clear that he was training her. The appearance of this immortal county lord is unparalleled in the world, I don't know if I can find out, most of them are here to play.
Although he looked down on the other party a little in his heart, he did a very good job, and said modestly: "Then there is the county lord of Lao Xianxian, I will tell you about the situation first." ”
It turned out that since five years ago, the baby has just disappeared one or two, the same as Yu Yao guessed. Initially, only one or two babies were missing each year, but since then, more and more babies have gone missing, and in the past two years, there have been fifty or sixty missing. Pregnant women and their families moved out of Qingling City directly, and more and more people left, resulting in a large age gap in the city's population.
The missing babies have the same trait, they are stolen before the age of one month. When the time of theft is ugly, it is the time when people are asleep, and the least precautions are taken. Then there was no clue, and the people in the city were panicked and worried.
After Yu Yao listened to his words, after he left, she called the master to leave the mansion together, and the three of Linglonger stayed in the mansion directly.
Linglong'er was reluctant at first, but Yu Yao dispelled her thoughts with a word, the two of you are now cultivating to nothing, and it is not safe to go, and she said that you need someone to take care of you without worry. She died down and obediently took care of the children in the house with Kyushu Han.
Yu Yao and the others brought a hat to cover their figure and appearance.
Ling Anfeng walked beside Yu Yao, there were fewer people in the eyes, and his mood was finally a little happier, but this good mood was ruined by a sentence from Fu'er.
Yu Yao tilted her head and asked with a smile: "Master, what do you think of Kyushu Han?" ”
When he heard this, he suddenly grabbed her arm tightly and asked in a gloomy voice, "Do you want him to be your Taoist companion?"
Yu Yao only felt that the hand on her arm was like an iron hoop, and it hurt to scratch it, and she didn't know why the other party reacted so much. She shook her head, afraid that the master wouldn't see it, so she hurriedly denied: "I don't like that, I think he and Linglong are very suitable." ”
Hearing her words, Ling Anfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and asked like a ghost, "Then what do you like?"
Yu Yao looked ahead, about to reach her destination, and said casually: "I don't know, I think Shizun is very good." "When I saw that face, I felt good, and all my worries disappeared.
Ling Anfeng grabbed her suddenly, she almost fell, was pulled back again, and crashed into his arms all at once.
Both of them were shocked, and their bodies were numb. Yu Yao suddenly remembered the previous few times, surrounded by the cold fragrance of Shizun, it was also this inexplicable feeling, her heart beat faster, and her head went blank. She stood up straight, but was held by Shizun's arm and couldn't break free.
She looked up at Shizun, but through the hat, she couldn't see his expression clearly, and could only feel his gaze lock on her.
Ling Anfeng listened to her words, and gave birth to a feeling similar to joy, this feeling had been away from him for a long time, and it felt good to finally find it from her.
He didn't want to scare her, now was not the time, boiling the frog in warm water, it was still a long time, as long as he guarded her and saw who could get close.
Thinking clearly, Ling Anfeng smiled, the laughter shook out of his chest and spread to Yu Yao, feeling that his skin was hot and numb, and his heart was beating faster.
He let go of his hand and helped her put the hat straight, his movements were extremely slow and orderly, and Yu Yao felt that her face was a little hot.
