Chapter 107: The Oriental Family
After sending Xia Qinghan and Ah Yuan away, Chu Xuan closed the door and returned to the second floor, just picked up the book and glanced at it, there was another knock on the door downstairs, and he had to go downstairs again. opened the door, but it was Zhu Yan.
"Senior sister, come upstairs and sit, are you here to play against me?" Chu Xuan didn't stay this time, and immediately welcomed someone into the building.
"Brother Xuan, this little guy will pay you back. Zhu Yan took away the umbrella and took out a ball of white velvet from his sleeve, which turned out to be a little white tiger.
"Well, I drank too much last night and forgot about it, please thank the master on my behalf. Chu Xuan said, took the little white tiger, and found that it had gained weight again.
It turned out that the last time he caught the headless monster, Chu Xuan was worried that the little white tiger would have no one to take care of, so he entrusted it to Zhu Tingzhi before leaving.
Zhu Yan followed him up to the second floor, and said in a clear voice: "Actually, I came this time to discuss one thing with you, at the end of this month, there is a task in the sect to send the disciples of this sect to the Wei State of the Eastern Yuan Continent to pick up a group of new disciples to enter the sect to practice. In order to prevent accidents, it is necessary to send some disciples who are strong in cultivation, I went there in the past few years, this time the senior sister has something, I hope the fifth brother can do it for me. ”
When Chu Xuan heard her say this, he suddenly thought that he had agreed to participate in Xia Qinghan's birthday banquet, so he hesitated for a moment. But in the end, he nodded and said, "No problem, senior sister has a life, how dare I disobey." ”
"Go, what you said. Zhu Yan smiled, then sighed again, and said quietly: "Last night, my father asked the real person of the ruling sect to be for us... Engaged, you were drunk at the time and did not refuse. ”
"What? how could this be!" Chu Xuan was taken aback: "Then why didn't Senior Sister make it clear in front of everyone at that time?"
Zhu Yan's face was as red as dripping blood, like a little girl who had done something wrong, buried her head low, and whispered: "I was embarrassed at the time, so I went to the backyard." ”
"What should I do then! This is not a joke!" Chu Xuan patted his forehead, so anxious that he couldn't do anything.
Zhu Yan saw that he was so anxious, and suddenly asked, "Brother Xuan, do you feel very embarrassed?"
"Of course, how could Senior Sister ask that?" Chu Xuan said puzzled.
Zhu Yan shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm also embarrassed, so this sect mission, I recommended you to a real person, do you know what it means?"
"Senior sister's meaning, is it ......"
"Uh-huh. If Brother Xuandi really feels embarrassed, then leave the sect this time and don't come back. Zhu Yan nodded, and said: "To be honest, with your current situation, if you want to become a master of the world, it is only a matter of time, and staying in the Dao Sect will actually not help you much." ”
"I see. Chu Xuan nodded and said, "Senior sister, I will definitely come back to see you if I have the chance." As she spoke, she looked up at each other and found that there were tears in her eyes.
"What are you looking at?" Seeing Chu Xuan staring at him, Zhu Yan hurriedly turned his head away.
"Actually, senior sister, you are a good girl, it's really a pity that you don't marry for the rest of your life......" Chu Xuan shook his head and sighed.
When Zhu Yan heard this, he turned his face, his lips opened slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all.
...
After that day, Chu Xuan planned to leave the sect, and packed up what things he wanted to bring into a package early.
In addition, he would go to Zhu's mansion more time, or accompany Old Man Zhu to drink tea, play chess, discuss the know-how of cultivation, or play and gossip with Zhu Yan, and rarely put his energy on cultivation.
I think that at the beginning, he fled here from Xuan Luolin's nine deaths, and if it weren't for Zhu Yan's help, he would almost not even have a place to stay. Later, when he joined the White Tiger Palace, Old Man Zhu was also very attentive to him, and he took great care of food, clothing, housing and transportation. The Zhu family is kind to themselves, and Chu Xuan knows it in his heart.
Time passed day by day, and before I knew it, it was the end of the month.
Before leaving, Chu Xuan found the pawnshop at the beginning, but fortunately, the jade seal of the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom was still there, so he wanted to redeem it at ten times the price. The shopkeeper was reluctant at first, but after learning that he was the top of the two big competitions, he didn't dare to offend, but returned it to him without overcharging a penny.
Chu Xuan redeemed the jade seal and came to the port in the east, where many sailboats were moored on the dock, and the shore was crowded with people. He was about to board the ship, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice calling his name, turned his head to look, and sure enough, it was Zhu Yan.
"Brother Xuan, I brought you something. Zhu Yan was still dressed in white, holding a small square wooden box in his hand, and slowly approached him.
"What is it?" Chu Xuan took the wooden box and asked.
Zhu Yan smiled lightly and said, "I won't tell you, I'll know when you open it when you get on the boat, in short, Senior Sister wishes you a smooth journey." ”
"Senior sister, you are still so good to me. Chu Xuan lifted the wooden box in his hand, only to feel that the weight was not light.
"No more, I'm leaving. Zhu Yan only felt that tears were about to burst out of his eyes again, and he hurriedly turned around.
"By the way, Senior Sister, if you meet Miss Xia, please tell her that I have left Chongsheng Island and cannot attend her birthday banquet, and ask her to forgive me. Chu Xuan suddenly remembered this and said loudly.
Zhu Yan didn't look back, and she didn't know if she heard it. Since he was about to set off, Chu Xuan had to scratch his head and carry the box on the boat.
...
"Senior sister, she really ...... me"
At night, in the wing room of the cabin, Chu Xuan opened the small wooden box and found that there were not only many clean clothes and delicate snacks inside, but even Zhu Yan had prepared a lot of spirit stones, elixirs, elixirs, and a large number of gold coins for him, and he couldn't help but sigh. No wonder he was so heavy in his hand before.
"Brother Lin Xuan, don't you sleep so late?"
He was thinking about things alone, when a male voice suddenly came from outside the door, it turned out to be Luo Lan. Luo Lan didn't want to go out of the sect to welcome new disciples, but the time for him to leave the Dao Yi Sect had come, and it was time to go back to the Liang Kingdom of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Like him, there are also his second brother Luo Yuan, as well as Han Yuan and others from Daowu Sect.
"Senior Brother Luo, haven't you slept yet? Chu Xuan opened the door and welcomed the other party in.
Luo Lan was familiar with himself, so he found a stool to sit down, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin Xuan, are you not planning to come back this time?"
"Hmm, how do you say that?" Chu Xuan was slightly shocked in his heart.
"If that's not the case, why do you prepare so many things?" Luo Lan pointed to the small wooden box that was opened, and said, "Senior Sister Zhu came to see you off during the day, I saw it, these are all prepared by her for you, right? I have long guessed that your so-called marriage contract is fake." ”
"How do you know?" Chu Xuan asked.
Luo Lan said: "I came to Chongsheng Island three years earlier than you, of course I know. In the past, Dao Wuzong had a peerless genius from Wei State, and Senior Sister Zhu liked him very much, this is a well-known thing, but the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless. ”
"Really?" Chu Xuan's face was a little unnatural, and he said coldly: "I would like to see what kind of metallographic jade this guy is when I have a chance." ”
"Haha, actually, I came with a reluctant invitation. Luo Yuan changed his words and said, "Brother Lin Xuan, if you leave the sect this time and have nowhere to go for a while, you can come to Liang Kingdom to find me at any time." Over the years, our Daliang has been at war with the Jin Kingdom, my father has always been thirsty for talents, if a young talent like you can come to my Daliang, he will be like a fish in water, and he will have great ambitions!"
"Are you saying that the Jin Kingdom is the enemy country of Daliang?" Chu Xuan heard this, touched his chin, nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Luo for your kindness, if the time is right, I will go to Daliang." ”
"Brother Lin Xuan is welcome at any time!" Luo Lan heard him call himself Brother Luo, knowing that the other party had agreed, and said happily.
The two chatted for a while, and seeing that Chu Xuan was absent-minded, Luo Lan took the initiative to leave.
After Luo Lan left, Chu Xuan couldn't sleep for a long time, and there was a voice repeating in his heart.
"Xia Xing, you wait, I must destroy the Jin Kingdom. ”
