Chapter 95: The Crane Song (4)
"I'll tell you, it's not the first time I've been embarrassed anyway......" Shen Duchuan sighed, he felt that he had been particularly unlucky recently, and he was about to choke on a sip of cold water.
"Okay." Yun Ximian agreed, and extinguished the weeds that had been burning next to the incense candle by the way, and the three of them only saw Yun Ximian wave his hand, and the raging fire turned into a mist as if it was lifeless in an instant.
"Good, that's amazing! Is she a fairy! Meng Ziqing's eyes widened and he looked at Yun Ximian with admiration.
Shen Duchuan was also surprised, flapped his wings and said, "There's nothing surprising about it, it's a little trick for an immortal cultivator." "But not everyone is a single ice spirit root, he didn't expect to see the legendary ice spirit root in his lifetime.
Whoever made them wind crane clan was born with a wind-type spirit root, and occasionally a mutated water spirit root surprised them.
"So they're immortals! No wonder they look so good! Meng Zilin said suddenly.
Shen Duchuan heard a burst of jealousy in his heart, turned his head and pecked Meng Zilin's hand, and said unhappily: "Don't say that other men are good-looking!" ”
Meng Zilin didn't quite understand why Shen Duchuan suddenly got angry, and said very aggrievedly while rubbing his hands: "I'm telling the truth, how can you ......be like this, Xiaodui?"
How did Shen Duchuan know that Meng Zilin couldn't see that he was jealous, looking at Meng Zilin's aggrieved appearance, he couldn't bear it, but he was embarrassed to apologize, so he simply turned his head and talked to Chu Zilin: "What do you want to know?"
"How did you meet Nanchuan?" As soon as Chu Ziqing opened his mouth, he was extremely tricky, and Shen Duchuan organized the language in his mind for a long time, and opened his mouth carefully.
As the Demon Plant said, the Wind Crane Clan suffered a catastrophe, and that sudden plague killed most of them, and the Wind Crane Clan was almost all wiped out, except for Shen Duchuan.
When the plague struck, Shen Duchuan was still in his mother's womb, and his mother died after exhausting all her strength to give birth to him.
But without the protection of the Wind Crane clan, Shen Duchuan's life was very hard, and it was a miracle that he could survive until now; He was born smart and witty, and knew that he would definitely not be able to survive if he went back to the demon world for his current cultivation, so he had been wandering in the world, taking advantage of the characteristics of human beings to worship gods, and letting humans give him tribute incense, resulting in his current physique being half demon and half immortal, it is difficult to rely on cultivation to grow up, and he can only rely on human beings to continue to pay tribute to him, and in order to make more people believe in him, he does not hesitate to cause everyone's panic, and then say "what someone has done to anger whoever is", anyway, there will be bad things everywhere, He only needs to use these rumors to easily get what he wants.
It wasn't until he came to Yangxu Town that he heard about the Chu family in the town that had been tragically destroyed, and he had a plan in his heart, but before he could take action, he was caught by Nanchuan.
Shen Duchuan is just a demon with low cultivation, how could he beat Nanchuan, a villain who took black crystals, was beaten not to mention, and was forced to sign a master-servant contract, and had to do things for Nanchuan.
The bride of the river god is a scam set up for Nanchuan to find a girl, Shen Duchuan is not a good person, for his own life, he has no choice but to do this, as for the man who died on the street that time, he was accidentally killed by the madness, because he has not been worshiped for a long time, and the demon energy in his body cannot be controlled, which led to this tragedy, so when he built the river temple, he will build his own stone statue, which can barely maintain the human form.
"Really...... Did you really kill Uncle Li!?" Meng Zilin's face was full of disbelief, how could she believe that the god she had always thought was actually a ruthless murderer? She was still trying so hard to defend her, she suddenly felt like a fool.
Shen Duchuan also panicked, flapped his wings and explained: "I didn't mean to, I originally wanted to go to the mountains to hide for a while that day, and then talk about it when I eased up, who knew that I suddenly met someone on the road, and I accidentally didn't hold back......" He didn't feel guilty in his conscience, but if there was a better choice, he wouldn't kill someone.
Meng Zilin was about to cry, she felt sorry for Aunt Li, she didn't expect Shen Duchuan to really kill someone! But were all the previous kindnesses to her fake?
"Then how did you become like this?" Chu Ziqing's faint voice interrupted what Shen Duchuan was about to say, Shen Duchuan looked at Meng Zilin anxiously, but he didn't dare not answer Chu Ziqing's words, so he had to generalize and said: "I was accidentally injured by a Taoist priest, and I can't restore my original appearance, and I can't even change my body back." ”
"Daoist? Are there still Taoist priests in this town? Yun Ximian couldn't help but interject and asked.
Shen Duchuan was also very depressed: "Where, it seems that I only came to town in the past few days, and when I saw me, I would have been beaten without saying a word, if I hadn't run fast, I guess I would have confessed to him." ”
"Oh, you're pretty damn good, then." Chu Ziqing said in a nonsensical tone, as if he was just stating a fact.
Shen Duchuan was choked up by his words, and turned his head not to argue with Chu Ziqing, he didn't want to ask for hardship.
"So it's been a long time since you've seen Nanchuan?" Yun Ximian thought boldly.
She didn't know what happened to Hongli's side after she came up from the bottom of the sea, but she could hear from Shen Duchuan's words that Nanchuan seemed to be restricted by something, and she couldn't come ashore by herself, otherwise why would she need Shen Duchuan as an intermediary?
"When you say that, it seems to be really ......" Shen Duchuan paused, just thinking about recovering his body in the past few days, he forgot about Nanchuan's annoying guy.
"How do you usually contact Nanchuan?" Yun Ximian already had a plan and asked.
"Ah, I usually contact him at the River Temple, have you been to the He Temple? It's that statue. Shen Duchuan said.
"Then when are you going to contact him again?" Yun Ximian asked like checking the household register.
Shen Duchuan unconsciously looked at Meng Zilin, who was in a state of disgrace next to him, and said in a sullen tone: "I don't know, let's talk about it when I recover my body......"
"Tonight." Chu Ziqing interrupted.
"Impossible!" Shen Duchuan's entire bird feathers stood up, but he slowly calmed down under Chu Ziqing's unfluctuating eyes, and said very unconfidently: "At least tomorrow night." "That had to happen with a lot of effort on his part.
"Tomorrow night, then." Yun Ximian nodded, it was just one more day, and she could still afford to wait.
Unexpectedly, it was already dark after this chat, Yun Ximian looked at the depressed Meng Zilin, and didn't know how to comfort her, so in the end she could only touch her little head gently, hoping that she could feel better.
Uncle Shi didn't even touch my head! Chu Ziqing's heart was instantly unbalanced, she was kind to Tang Qiyan and the stinky boy in front of her, why was she so alienated from herself?
If Yun Ximian heard his words, he would definitely jump up and complain: Because Tang Qiyan and Meng Zilin are girls! Chu Ziqing is not a girl, she is still the hero, it's terrible to touch it!
When they returned to the Tang family, they happened to catch up with the meal, and the two of them had dinner with the Tang family in the hall, Yun Ximian was very reserved and only ate a little, leaving the Tang family couple who wanted to talk and stopped talking and Chu Ziqing, whose face was dark, and returned to the room in style.
In fact, you don't have to think about it to know what the Tang family's parents want to talk about with Chu Ziqing, Tang Qiyan is also a big boss, according to the ancient marrying guidelines, she can already be regarded as an "old leftover girl".
The real old leftover girl Yun Ximian sighed silently, and went to the backyard to chop wood with the Ruoshui sword.
Ah, it can't be said to be chopping wood, but she just wanted to use those woods to practice her accuracy, and it would be nice to help them chop firewood by the way.
Because it was a still life practice, I felt a little bored after practicing for a long time, Yun Ximian wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and was just about to turn around and leave, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw Chu Ziqing leaning against a tree, looking this way.
"Ziqing, when did you come over?" Yun Ximian put down his sleeves in embarrassment, and secretly complained that Chu Ziqing should not be a ghost, and he walked without making a sound at all!
Chu Ziqing stood up straight and walked over, looked at the pile of wood and said, "Not long after I came over, Uncle Shi is still practicing, and the wound is not healed." ”
“…… Yes, let's go back to the medicine. Yun Ximian only felt that his whole body was covered with sweat, and he couldn't wait to jump into the water immediately and rub himself hundreds of times.
Chu Ziqing stopped Yun Ximian, and said under her puzzled gaze: "Don't worry, I see that Uncle Shi's skills have been getting better recently, why don't we two go it alone?"
Yun Ximian was so frightened that she almost didn't burst into a foul mouth, twitching the corners of her mouth and refusing: "No, no, I don't think I have any growth......" The problem is that she can't beat the protagonist at all, okay!
"Is Uncle Shi afraid of breaking my confidence? It's okay, I'm not afraid of being hit. "The more righteous Chu Ziqing said, the less confident Yun Ximian became.
Could it be that Chu Ziqing found something? Yun Ximian's face turned pale a few times, she was already very restrained not to think about the content, but the description of the death of the original owner in her mind always lingered, I have to say that this has become her heart disease, don't look at her getting along with Chu Ziqing very well, but as long as someone deliberately sows discord, she will definitely fall out with Chu Ziqing.
"Uncle Shi, is the wound cracked?" Chu Ziqing didn't know Yun Ximian's concerns, seeing that her face suddenly turned pale, she subconsciously thought that the wound had cracked.
Yun Ximian agreed with this excuse, nodded weakly, and said, "Suddenly not very comfortable...... As long as she remembered that Chu Ziqing was going to kill her in the future, she felt uncomfortable all over her body.
"Go back to the medicine first!" When Chu Ziqing heard this, he frowned, and he didn't mention anything about discussing with Yun Ximian anymore.
Yun Ximian walked on the road with a heavy heart, and almost fell several times.
