Chapter 267: Above the Cloud River
Yunchuan Old Town
As soon as Yi Lidao got off the plane, he was welcomed by Yue Xuan into the old house in the south of the city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Royal Highness Princess, you can rest in this single-family courtyard for the time being, if you are not satisfied with anything, just tell me." Yue Xuan smiled sweetly.
"Yes, I see." Ily fell in love with this quirky little girl from the moment they met, and she felt a little bit like her own little sister.
"Then you can rest for a while, and when you are ready, I will come back to you." After speaking, Yue Xuan walked out of the door and took the courtyard door.
For this kind of Chinese-style courtyard, Yi Lidao is very curious.
Neither in Theloen nor in Farnet, she had never been exposed to this style of house.
The central room is a living room, in which a classical beauty statue is hung, and in the middle is a table of eight immortals and three wooden stools.
On the left and right sides are the study and tea room.
The east and west wings are bedrooms, all of which are equipped with brand new supplies.
Erie was strolling around when she heard footsteps in the yard.
When I went out, I saw that Zhao Wuji was watching her in the yard and laughing.
Wuji's face was full of shy smiles, and she said a little embarrassed: "This is my room." Actually, this small courtyard is my home. ”
Erie was a little surprised, but she didn't expect there to be someone to talk to at night.
"I see, but I saw a picture of a lady hanging in the hall, and I thought it was a special guest room." Ily said with a smile.
Reaching out and taking out a small object from her arms, Sister Mowgli handed it to Erie.
"Your Highness, you take this, this is our family's temporary clearance token. If you want to go to another yard, it's best to take it with you. "Actually, no matter where Erie goes, she will follow, so it doesn't matter if she has it or not.
But this is just in case, there are disciples of the martial arts hall in the northwest corner of the house, in case a reckless guy collides with His Royal Highness's Luan Jia, it will be really ugly at that time.
"Actually, this is my uncle's courtyard, but my uncle passed away many years ago, and this has become the room of several of our brothers and sisters." Zhao Wuji explained that in fact, the main hall is generally not used, and the four rooms in the wing room are actually occupied for a few days a year.
Because Zhao Wuji's generation of disciples is the backbone of the martial arts hall, they are needed to teach in the martial arts halls everywhere.
Nodding and putting away the token as small as a finger, Eli pointed to the east wing and said, "Then I live over there, right?" ”
"It's the little sister's room over there, but when you come, she lives somewhere else." After speaking, she was afraid that Yi Lishan would be disgusted, so she hurriedly explained: "My little sister actually loves cleanliness very much, and she hasn't lived there a few times, and the old man loves her very much." ”
In fact, Yue Xuan has always lived in the Wind Viewing Tower with the old man, after all, she has been serving the old man with her.
Yi Lishan shook her head and smiled, she was not such a pampered person in the first place, it was necessary to sleep in the wild on the battlefield, she couldn't carry a sedan chair to the battlefield, right?
The two of them were chatting, and Yue Xuan pushed open the courtyard door and came in.
"Your Highness, you are ready, please come with me." Yue Xuan smiled, and then she whispered to Zhao Wuji, "Senior Father-in-law also asked you to come, Senior Sister." ”
"Me?" Zhao Wuji was stunned, she was a little confused, the old man invited Her Royal Highness the princess to a banquet, what did she ask her to do?
But since Yue Xuan said it, she couldn't shirk it, but she found that she was still wearing a practice uniform for a few days, and hurriedly said, "Senior sister, you take Your Highness first, I'll ...... I'm going to change my clothes first! ”
After that, he turned around and ran into the room, but he accidentally tripped on the door frame, although he didn't fall on his stomach, but his face was already red, and he looked at the two people who were looking at her stupidly in embarrassment, and hurriedly closed the door.
Poof, both of them laughed.
Yi Liling smiled and asked, "Your senior sister is usually like this?" ”
Yue Xuan shook her head again and again: "That's not it, my senior sister is usually very powerful, but you came here and scared her." ”
After saying that, his eyes turned into squinting smiles, and he left the small courtyard with Ily Ling.
The banquet was still set up in the Wind Viewing Tower, and the old man said that he sat there and could see far away.
In the Wind and Rain Hall, the old man sat on the left hand seat, and the right hand seat was reserved for His Royal Highness Erie Island.
Sitting with Cunxiao and Zhao Wuji in the lower hands, while Yue Xuan was for everyone, and the little girl was sitting by the window.
While the dishes were not yet ready, Yue Xuan was signaling to the senior brother standing on guard in the courtyard from the window.
Deng Yan and more than a dozen second-generation disciples were standing all over the courtyard, and a few even stood on the roof of the house to be in charge of guarding.
After staring at it for a long time, Deng Yan understood that the little junior sister had performed a gesture for a long time, which meant to let him go up.
Stretching out his hand and patting the shoulder of the junior brother next to him, Deng Yan said, "You be careful, there is something to set fire." ”
After saying that, he walked up the stairs and left the courtyard.
When Deng Yan came up, the old man spoke: "People are old, so they don't know how to count etiquette." Your Highness, you came all the way to Yunchuan, and it was rude not to be able to meet you from afar. ”
"I hope Your Highness will forgive your sins." After speaking, the old man lifted a cup, and then another cup, and was holding the third cup, Cunxiao wanted to get up to stop it, but was stared at by the old man's eyes.
"You're not my own son, what are you doing standing up?" The old man said, and stubbornly fixed what Cunxiao said in the same place.
After the old man finished speaking, he lifted the third cup before putting the cup down.
After speaking, he didn't look at Cunxiao, but turned his gaze back to Erie Island.
Cunxiao didn't sit or stand, so he froze there.
It was still Yue Xuan who was smart, ran around and ran to him, whispered a few words in his ear, and then he sat back in his place.
Yi Lishan smiled and raised his glass: "Although I haven't drunk much, but you are so bold, this cup is for you." ”
Knowing that she finished drinking, the old man smiled, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Don't wait, it's not a wine fight!" I didn't break your hands either, waiting to feed it? ”
A few people at the bottom dared to move their chopsticks when they heard this, and there was no such tense atmosphere for a while.
It wasn't until the third round of wine that the old man opened his mouth and asked, "Your Highness, you must have some plans for coming to Yunchuan, right?" ”
Several other people immediately pricked up their ears, whether it was Deng Yan who was immersed in eating, or Cunxiao, who was drinking hard, or even Yue Xuan, who had been giving Deng Yan a look.
They knew that the main field had begun.
Naturally, Yi Lishan also heard this, and she looked at the old man's sharp eyes, and her expression became serious.
"Since you asked, I don't want to deceive, I'm here for Yunchuan." Erie didn't say anything for Yun Chuan, but several people knew that she really came for "Yun Chuan".
It's not anything, what she wants is this sky, this land, these people, this planet.
The old man nodded, this princess is very smart, she didn't look for any excuses, but said her purpose bluntly.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see His Highness's purpose, but whether she talks about it or not, it represents an attitude.
"I saw my apprentice some time ago." The old man breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"That's what he said, but I'd like to hear you tell me personally." The old man's eyes turned to the window, and in that direction was where Barrett was.
"Your apprentice?" This time, Ily didn't understand it, and she didn't seem to know the old man's apprentice.
She turned her eyes to Cunxiao on the opposite side, this Yunchuan, there is only this one who can be counted as the old man's apprentice.
Of the old man's five apprentices, two of them are no longer there, and the fourth apprentice, Wang Hui, is in Farnet.
He Shuang, the fifth old, opened a martial arts chamber of commerce in the Eastern Star Region, and also left Yunchuan a few years ago.
Yue Xuan was smart and knew the old man's inside story, so she put it in Yi Li's ear and said, "The master is referring to that one, the one you saw in the afternoon." ”
At this mention, Eli understood that the old man was talking about Barrett.
"You also took in a closed disciple." Ily smiled, and she said, "Then you really have a vision, he is a good person." ”
As soon as he heard this, the old man's eyebrows were raised.
Now he doesn't know that in the early years, it was very taboo to say that others were good people, especially between men and women.
"Eh, what a thing!" The old man immediately said: "Although that kid is only half an apprentice of mine, his human nature is very good!" ”
Seeing that the old man was a little unhappy, Yi Lidao knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "It's not the good person you think, but the really good person." Well, well, he's a talent, a great talent. ”
"Then what is my identity as a disciple on this cloud river?" The old man asked directly.
Barrett was asked this question, but he couldn't answer it at all, so the old man never saw him again.
Because he didn't know his place at all, and he wasn't even sure where he was.
And with the shrewdness of the old man, he naturally knew that the person who could give him the answer was Her Royal Highness the princess in front of him, who was heroic between her eyebrows.
Ili didn't answer immediately, and she was lost in thought.
In fact, she already had the answer in her heart, but she never mentioned it to others, let alone these people she saw for the first time.
The old man was not in a hurry, just drank quietly, waiting for her answer.
In the entire wind and rain hall, there was only the sound of the breeze caressing the leaves, and even the sound of breathing was stifled by these skilled martial artists.
Ily thought for a moment, and when she raised her head again, she had already made up her mind.
"Actually, this Yunchuan is for him." Ily looked into the old man's eyes and slowly spoke what was in her heart.
"No matter what path we go from here, I hope he can be by our side and protect us."
The old man laughed, he shook his head and sighed, "Your father is too calculating! I'm afraid that many years ago, you started calculating me, right? ”
Without waiting for Ily to answer, he laughed and said, "Hahaha, good! You can take it, but remember, no matter when, this Yunchuan is my fugitive. ”
His meaning is simple, it's his, it's yours.
If it's his, it's not yours, then Yunchuan isn't yours either.
Halfway through a smile, the old man coughed violently, and Yue Xuan hurriedly stepped forward to stroke his back.
