Chapter 378: Preparation

The sky was full of wind and rain, like smoke and fog.

A young man with a jade-like face walked step by step holding an oil-paper umbrella.

The handsome and upright figure of the young man matches this scene, at first glance.

It's a very meaningful picture.

Zhu Rong held an umbrella and walked up the stairs, stepped on the bluestone paved in the yard, and accidentally stepped on the water pool, splashing a few splashes.

The young man under the umbrella saw this bizarre combination under the corridor, and raised the umbrella with a sigh.

The three men looked at each other silently.

The young man's face was fair, and the two blue and black under his eye sockets became more and more conspicuous.

I guess I didn't sleep all night.

Duan Lizheng suddenly felt some sympathy.

"Duan Gongzi." Zhu Rong walked up to the corridor and put away his umbrella, bowed slightly towards Duan Lizheng, and then looked at Song Huaizhu with some doubts.

"This son, long time no see."

Song Huaizhu also nodded. But I just didn't mean to say my name.

"Zhu Gongzi, you are here too." The Tao lady who had returned to the outside room before opened the door from the inside and said with some surprise.

Zhu Rong smiled bitterly, and glanced at Duan Lizheng and Song Huaizhu, "Is the sister really here?" ”

Duan Lizheng nodded.

"She ......" Zhu Rong took a breath, his bloodshot eyes showing some worry, "What's going on?" ”

She said that she came back before and after the third watch, but Zhu Rong waited at home until the fourth watch, and did not wait for her to come back.

He didn't alarm anyone and went up Jiuhua Mountain alone.

Compared to looking for it all over the street, Zhu Rong could only think of this one place, and the moment he saw Duan Lizheng, he knew that he had made the right bet.

The son of the Duan family was actually outside Princess Jinyang's meditation room in the early morning of the day of the martial arts test......

Zhu Rong squinted his eyes and looked at Duan Lizheng, he had watched this man leave after the township test, but he didn't expect to really follow her.

"It's a long story." Duan Lizheng noticed Zhu Rong's scrutinizing gaze, his expression was a little complicated, but compared to this, he looked at Lady Tao eagerly, "I seemed to hear the ...... in the room just now Isn't she ......?"

Duan Lizheng asked only to find that this question was a bit silly as a cultivator, and he mobilized Zhenyuan to listen carefully to the movement in the room. An invisible barrier suddenly enveloped the entire meditation room.

The barrier is extremely extensive and solid as an iron wall. Suddenly cut off from all snooping, the room was silent.

Duan Lizheng frowned and looked at the man standing beside him.

"Don't listen to indecent acts." Song Huaizhu still looked at the rain falling under the eaves, and said expressionlessly.

After a pause, he said.

"She's awake."

"Awake?" Duan Lizheng's eyes widened in surprise, and after being stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth flashed a faint arc.

The boy breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his head with a smile, "That's good." ”

"It's not good." Song Huaizhu on the side couldn't see emotion in his misty eyes, and said lightly.

Duan Lizheng and Zhu Rong's eyes instantly focused on the man with their backs to this side.

Even if the eyes of the two were substantial, Song Huaizhu just stared at the raindrops under the eaves and didn't say a word.

Zhu Rong took a deep breath and looked at the Tao female official, "Can I go in and see my sister?" ”

Duan Lizheng's fingers moved slightly when he heard this, and he also looked at Lady Tao, hesitated a little, and paused and said, "Please ask Your Highness, the martial arts test is about to start today, can you go in and see...... Look at her situation. ”

The Tao female official leaned out after a while and nodded to the two.

Duan Lizheng and Zhu Rong followed him and walked in.

The room was still a little dark, and the fragrance inside was fragrant, and the teenagers smelled a little uncomfortable and pursed their lips.

The two walked in, Zhu Luan was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and opened his eyes when he heard footsteps.

It's one thing to hear it, but when he really saw the girl who was unconscious before opening her eyes, Duan Lizheng was still shocked.

He had seen Song Huaizhu lose consciousness for a quarter of an hour after trying the poison on the arrow. It can be seen that the poison is very powerful.

Duan Lizheng exhaled silently, really not knowing how this person regained consciousness.

When it was on his back before, it was as light as a feather.

So what the hell is in the slender body?

"You ......" Zhu Luan blinked, only to find that the person behind him had changed.

"Cousin, when did you come?"

"Just now." Zhu Rong said, and then glanced at Duan Lizheng, "Did I miss something?" Are you okay? ”

"It's okay," Zhu Luan smiled at the corner of his mouth, "It's me who is not good, I said that the third watch went back but I missed the appointment." ”

It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's going to say this.

Duan Lizheng's fists clenched.

"That's good," Zhu Rong laughed, "I still have to take the martial arts test today, and I just had time to send you over." ”

Good what.

Where is it.

Duan Lizheng finally understood Song Huaizhu's mood just now at this time, if he didn't understand it when he saw it, he would be a cultivator of the Extreme Realm in vain.

Only this cousin who will gather qi will be deceived by her.

Duan Lizheng looked at the woman lying on the bed, and looked down at her stretched fingers at her side.

Zhu Luan lay on the bed and talked to them, Princess Jinyang sat silently on the side, and the Tao female official stood on the edge of the couch, and no one had the intention of helping her sit up.

Because she couldn't sit up at all.

She was covered in her body, and nothing was moving at all except her eyes.

Duan Lizheng knew that it was already a miracle that she woke up, and he originally had hidden expectations, but looking at this woman's pale cheeks and feeling the breath in her body, no matter what he imagined, he couldn't imagine that she would be able to participate in the martial arts test.

The first test of the martial arts test is the courage of the bow horse.

Now there are two hours left before the first martial arts test.

Duan Lizheng listened to Zhu Rong's words, although he knew that he was unintentional, he still felt cruel.

At this time, mentioning the martial arts test was simply full of malice towards this woman.

But Duan Lizheng never expected that this woman hummed and said as if nothing had happened, "Then cousin, you go have breakfast first, and then send me to the examination room later." ”

Zhu Luan's expression was still so gentle and calm, and he also glanced at Duan Lizheng after speaking, "Duan Gongzi is too." It was a hard last night. ”

"If you're not in a hurry, just wait for me," she smiled, "There are still a lot of steps for a woman to go out." ”

Duan Lizheng looked at the woman's pale face and was speechless.

"You ......"

At this time, Song Huaizhu on the other side was standing alone on the promenade, and the rain slipped in front of his eyes drop by drop.

I don't know when the rain stopped, but he still looked intently at the yard.

The morning light penetrated through the forest and shone on the people who came from the courtyard gate.

The clean monk's shoes stepped on the sun-paved rocks, like immortals stepping on the snow.

The young monk, dressed in a white-washed robe with picturesque eyebrows, paced with an old jar.

Monk Xuezhai walked in front of Song Huaizhu.

"You're here," Song Huaizhu said, "Something brought?" ”
