Chapter 34: Mysterious Rumors in the Rivers and Lakes

"You damn boy, you can't be happy and stupid! Why are your eyes so big? Qiu Rong'er looked at the abnormal cold red eyes and teased softly.

Could it be that no one can see this strange phenomenon?

Leng Chitong's eyes rolled slightly, and he was puzzled.

He knew that it was inconvenient to speak here, and after thinking about it for a while, he put this confusion on hold for the time being.

.......

At the stone table under the Jiaoyue tree, the three of them sat down.

"Auntie, where did you go with the grass again?" Qiu Rong'er wondered why she didn't see the grass that accompanied Jiao Niang all day long.

Jiao Niang looked at Qiu Rong'er with a naughty face, deliberately pretending to get up and leave, and said, "Really, I shouldn't take the grass away and let her sort out those messy books for me, I'm afraid it will tire her." After not seeing her for a while, I missed her a little. ”

Qiu Rong'er saw that Jiao Niang was really ready to leave, so she hurriedly dragged her back, "Don't don't, don't call her to do something?" It's not convenient to say anything! ”

Seeing Jiao Niang turn around and sit down, she stuck out her tongue mischievously, "Auntie, look at you pretending, will you still have leisure to think about grass?" ”

After speaking, she set her eyes on Leng Chitong.

"What are you looking at me like this, panic!" Leng Chitong felt uncomfortable when she saw Qiu Rong'er staring at her so strangely.

Qiu Rong'er leaned on the stone table in front of her with one hand, supported her cheeks, looked up at the sky, pretended to be sentimental, and said leisurely: "Hey, it's good to have a mother's child!" Unlike me, who has been with him for so many years, he can't get a little miss for me. ”

Jiao Niang listened to Qiu Rong'er's sour words, and poked her head angrily, "Look at this girl, her skills, all grow on this little mouth." ”

As she spoke, Jiao Niang couldn't help laughing.

It turns out that my aunt's smile can be so beautiful!

Qiu Rong'er couldn't help but smile when she saw Jiao Niang's unfamiliar smile, and she also laughed, surprised in her heart.

Leng Chitong was also the first time to see such a smiling face from Jiao Niang, and she couldn't help but look at it.

Suddenly, Leng Chitong seemed to remember something, and muttered in a low voice: "Strange, why is it only that day?" ”

Although Jiao Niang couldn't hear it clearly, she clearly felt that Leng Chitong seemed to say something, and she asked, "Hitomi, did you say anything?" ”

Leng Chitong nodded, and he asked Qiu Rong'er first, "A few days ago, it was the second day of the Wutao Meeting, didn't you see a layer of lilac smoke around my mother's body?" ”

As soon as these words came out, both of them widened their eyes.

Jiao Niang felt very incredible, and reconfirmed, "Hitomi, do you mean around my body?" ”

After Qiu Rong'er heard this, she stood up in surprise and looked at Jiao Niang's body repeatedly, "No! Are you reading it wrong! ”

Leng Chitong's eyes were firm, "I can't be wrong, I saw clearly that day, and it scared me!" But after that, I never saw it again! ”

Only then did Qiu Rong'er understand why Leng Chitong's expression was so abnormal that day.

"Could it be the Purple Dragon Jade Flute?" Jiao Niang thought about it, it seemed that there was only one possibility, and pondered.

"Oh? How evil can this thing be? When I saw those people looking at this purple dragon jade flute that day, their eyes lit up, what is its origin? Qiu Rong'er was very curious about this thing, but she wondered why only Leng Chitong could see it.

Leng Chitong leaned closer to his head, also curious, and looked serious.

"But why can't you see it?" He was puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help but ask one more question.

However, Jiao Niang and Qiu Rong'er obviously didn't know either, and both shook their heads.

Jiao Niang recalled: "The purple dragon jade flute has been in trouble for a long time, and the entire rivers and lakes have been constantly fighting for it, fighting openly and secretly, and sometimes even making trouble to the point of breaking the head and bleeding!" It is rumored on the rivers and lakes that it is a holy treasure with extraordinary ability to suppress evil. ”

When Jiao Niang talked about these things, a trace of sadness inexplicably appeared in her eyes.

"Is this really that powerful?" Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er asked in unison.

Unexpectedly, Jiao Niang didn't know very well, and said: "Although it has fallen into the hands of many people, it seems that no one has ever seen it appear with their own eyes, perhaps, those people don't know how to use it, or maybe, all this is a legend at all?" ”

After Leng Chitong heard this, he was even more puzzled, and frowned and asked, "Just because of rumors, the whole rivers and lakes have been turned upside down?" I don't know what those people think! ”

Jiao Niang looked at Leng Chitong, and continued: "Actually, it's no wonder that the world has never doubted the authenticity of the rumors, because this purple dragon jade flute is said to have been recorded in the book "Ancient Artifact Record", and among many artifacts, it ranks first! ”

"Ancient Artifact Record? Book? Who's the Author? "Leng Chitong has never heard of this book, it feels fresh and interested.

However, looking at Qiu Rong'er's appearance, she seemed to have heard of this book, and she was surprised: "This purple dragon jade flute is also recorded in this book?" Number one? Even so, I am afraid that it does have some extraordinary power, right? No wonder those people are going crazy to rob! ”

Leng Chitong looked at Qiu Rong'er suspiciously: "Why?" Why did you suddenly believe that rumor? ”

"Because this book is reliable! It is said that the artifacts recorded in this book, but all those that have appeared in the rivers and lakes, do have their special abilities. But, as for who you just asked who wrote it, I remember it has always been an unsolved mystery. It seems that no one ever knows its origin, and this book seems to have appeared in the rivers and lakes out of thin air! ”

Qiu Rong'er was talking energetically, and suddenly looked dazed: "However, if this purple dragon jade flute is really as powerful as the rumors say, why has no one ever seen its extraordinary power?" It's weird! ”

And such a strange book? Could there be any magic weapon that will allow me to bring Master back?

Leng Chitong pondered secretly in his heart.

Thinking of this, he was suddenly full of interest in this book and full of expectations: "I didn't expect there to be such a book?" Is it here? I'd love to see it! ”

Jiao Niang shook her head and said with a smile: "You, you, you think it's beautiful, this book has always been kept in the hands of Yue Nantian, the head of the Yishan faction, which is what you want to read!" ”

Qiu Rong'er also felt that Leng Chitong was too naΓ―ve, and giggled when she heard it on the side, "Sure enough, it's a stupid boy!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Leng Chitong's heart instantly cooled and his expression was gloomy, but the title of the book was firmly engraved on his heart from then on.

Qiu Rong'er was still puzzled in her heart: "Auntie, since there are so many people competing for this purple dragon jade flute, why did it come to you later?" And for so many years, no one in the rivers and lakes knows its whereabouts? ”

When Jiao Niang heard this, her expression suddenly changed, "Speaking of this, it's really strange!" I heard your uncle say that just a few days after Tong'er's death, when he was cultivating, an old man dressed in white suddenly appeared in front of him, this person was full of immortals, and I don't know where he got this purple dragon jade flute. He inexplicably handed this thing into the hands of your uncle, and said that he should keep it for the time being, and then give it to the righteous son when he receives the righteous son in the future, and he must announce it in public. Then, it suddenly disappeared without a trace! Your uncle has only mentioned this matter to me, so naturally no one else knows. ”

After hearing this, Qiu Rong'er's eyes widened in surprise, "There are still such strange people?" Don't know where it came from? ”

Jiao Niang shook her head and said she didn't know, "He can come and go freely in front of your master!" With such skills, no one should know about it! However, I have never heard of such a person in the rivers and lakes...... It's kind of weird! ”

During the conversation, somehow, the figure of the white-robed old man flashed in Leng Chitong's mind!

Qiu Rong'er still felt strange, "No, the purple dragon jade flute should also be in the hands of my uncle, why did it run into your hands?" ”

Jiao Niang recalled: "Back then, your uncle saw that the man was really weird, and he didn't dare to act according to his wishes, but back then, I thought that Hitomi was really dead, and I couldn't keep my soul all day long, and your uncle handed over this purple dragon jade flute to me in order to make me happy, saying that the righteous son who I would recognize in the future was personally selected by me to make up for that year." ”

After Qiu Rong'er heard the origin of this jade flute, she suddenly looked at Leng Chitong with envy and hatred, and muttered in her mouth: "I didn't expect such a good baby to fall into the hands of this dead boy!" If I had a baby like this...... It must be majestic! ”

Qiu Rong'er muttered, and complained again, "Auntie, this is your mistake, you didn't take out this big move earlier, I have been worried for so long in vain!" ”

"It's all because Tong'er's temper is really bad, and I don't know who this cow's temper looks like! Obviously, it is important for him to save his life, just give up the game, but he will not die! That day, it made me anxious! Jiao Niang looked at Leng Chitong helplessly.

Qiu Rong'er was confused when she heard it, "Didn't you have to ask him to leave?" You obviously have a way to do this! ”

Jiao Niang saw that Qiu Rong'er's brain didn't know how to turn, and she really couldn't do anything about her, "For so many years, I have never paid attention to the disciples of the villa, I am afraid that your uncle has long decided that I will not recognize any righteous son, and this suddenly said that he wants to recognize the righteous son, based on his understanding of me...... If he doubts Hitomi's true identity and he knows that Hitomi is the baby from sixteen years ago, will he have murderous intentions again? So I didn't dare to make this decision for a long time, but fortunately, it was a safe one. ”

After such an analysis by Jiao Niang, Qiu Rong'er can be regarded as truly understanding her good intentions.

However, Jiao Niang looked worried, "It's just that I'm still a little worried, I don't know if this purple dragon jade flute will cause any riots because of this?" I'm afraid that Hitomi will have some trouble in the future! I don't know why that person has to ask us to take the purple dragon jade flute in public to recognize the righteous son, isn't he afraid of causing chaos in the rivers and lakes again......"

This man is really weird, what is he trying to do?

Qiu Rong'er pondered, unable to guess the purpose of the mysterious man.

"Auntie, in your opinion, is that person good or evil?" Qiu Rong'er looked serious, and faintly felt that there was something strange about this matter.

Jiao Niang was stunned, her eyes were also mixed with doubts, she shook her head, "I don't know." Your uncle and I have never been able to figure out the man's intentions. I think in the past thousands of years, I have never heard of anyone willing to give up this holy relic. Strange, really strange......"

Jiao Niang looked at the cold red pupils beside her, "Hitomi, you can be more careful in the future!" ”

At this time, Leng Chitong was in a daze, and he didn't hear Jiao Niang's voice at all, and he vaguely felt as if he knew something, but he couldn't figure out his thoughts.
