Chapter 424: Counting is Counting

Cheng Ying's face flushed slightly, "You...... What do you mean by that?"

Ding Qin didn't care about the change in her expression at all, "It's nothing." You sleep in bed, and I sleep at the table below. Every day I would practice until the second half of the night, so I didn't rely on the bed that strongly. ”

He paused at this point, thought for a moment, and said, "However, if you don't feel right, you can go back." It's just that I think going out of my house so late could cause some trouble if the guards outside notice. ”

Cheng Ying's voice was a lot lower, "It's okay, it's okay, just do as you say." But it's better for you to sleep in bed, and I'll be cultivating late. ”

Ding Qin shook his head, "You sleep." When I came in, I saw that you were almost asleep. ”

Cheng Ying walked to Ding Qin's bed very embarrassed, sat on it and was silent for a long time, then picked up the quilt and said, "The quilt is for you......"

Ding Qin shook his head and took out a quilt directly from his Lingna stone belt, "I still have it here." You can use that. I didn't cover it. ”

With that, he walked over to the table, sat down in his chair, and slowly closed his eyes.

The expression on Cheng Ying's face was very complicated. She sat on the edge of the bed with the quilt for a long time, until she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, then she lifted her legs up, didn't take anything off, covered her body with the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

When Ding Qin opened his eyes again, it was almost dawn. Outside, it's a dark blue, and the further east you go, the lighter it gets. The lamp on the table was about to burn out, Ding Qin extinguished it, and the light from the outside penetrated through, and he could already vaguely see the furnishings in the room.

Cheng Ying was sleeping soundly now, Ding Qin walked a few steps in the house, she didn't react at all, and it didn't look like a cultivator should be alert at all. Ding Qin can understand this.

All along, Cheng Ying has been out by herself and has never joined the team. And in the past few days, because of Moyin's matter, she has also put in a lot of energy, and she may not have slept peacefully.

In addition, sleeping in Ding Qin's house, with a master like Ding Qin by her side, and a master she deeply trusted, she could completely relax.

Thinking of this, Ding Qin couldn't help but feel a little pity for Cheng Ying. He went over and covered her with the quilt, then gently returned to the table.

It wasn't until the people of the Ailan tribe prepared breakfast and the breakfast gong sounded outside that Cheng Ying woke up. She lifted the quilt in a bit of a panic, jumped off the bed, and muttered, "It's over, it's over, it's over." ”

Ding Qin's expression was calm, and he said slowly, "If you're tired, just sleep more, it's not a big deal." ”

Cheng Ying put on an extremely tough expression, "Who said I was tired......?" It's just that your quilt is too warm. ”

Ding Qin didn't hold back for a while, and burst out laughing. Cheng Ying's face was even more embarrassed, and her face was flushed, "What are you laughing at? You asked me to sleep in your room and cover your quilt, and you are still laughing at me?"

Ding Qin hadn't answered yet, and it happened that someone knocked on the door and asked Ding Qin to eat. As soon as he pushed the door, he saw that Ding Qin and Cheng Ying were there, and the quilt on the bed was thrown into a mess by Cheng Ying, coupled with Cheng Ying's red face, the man quickly retreated.

Cheng Ying's reaction was much faster than Ding Qin's, and she shouted directly, "Hey, come back, we didn't do anything......"

It's just that the people outside have long since disappeared.

In this regard, Ding Qin did not make any statement. For him, people have always been afraid of crooked shadows, and what they don't do is what they don't do.

With a calm expression, he opened the door and walked out.

Cheng Ying, hesitated for a while, and slipped out of the door like a thief.

However, no matter how she quickened her pace, she was still seen by the people in the courtyard and the guards at the door.

In less than two hours, not only the Ailan tribe and Song Renqing and others, but even the guards at the gate spread the word: Cheng Ying slept in Ding Qin's house last night.

Ding Qin remained silent. Cheng Ying didn't know how to explain it, so she simply went out without eating, feeling like she was hiding from this place of right and wrong.

Since the two key suspects of the Central Prison and the Northern Prison had already been explored, after ruling out the possibility of Mo Yin being imprisoned, Ding Qin's urgency to reconnoiter the entire Ice Canal City was greatly reduced. He gave a brief explanation of the affairs in the courtyard, and then went to the south gate of the city, from south to north, slowly wandering, ready to take a walk around the whole city.

And the two people who followed behind him, Ding Qin pretended not to see it, and didn't care at all.

By about noon, the news that all the guards of the middle and northern prisons had fainted last night had spread in the city. It is precisely because of the effect of moonlight that these people lose consciousness unconsciously, and after waking up, they do not find any suspicious traces, as if they have been evil.

As a result, various versions of legends appeared in the market.

What strong enemy broke in, and the world's masters reappeared, looking for someone, but they didn't find it.

What god appears to punish the wicked?

Somenight someone heard a mysterious song, and after listening to it, he lost consciousness.

In short, it's evil, it's messy, and there's all kinds of oil and vinegar. Moreover, including some of the guards, they are also passing it on, and they say it as if they have experienced it themselves.

The originally peaceful and tranquil Ice Canal City was unconsciously covered with a tense atmosphere, which Ding Qin didn't want to see.

A day passed in this kind of idleness. Ding Qin can basically remember where he walked, what the terrain was, what possible hiding places there were, and how many guards there were.

When it was almost dark, he returned to the courtyard. Just Cheng Ying also came back from outside, and the two of them entered the door together, and they were seen clearly by the guards and some people from the Ailan tribe.

In this case, I often want to explain it, but I can't explain it clearly.

Ding Qin thought about it, and simply said to Cheng Ying at the door, "Come to my room at night." ”

Cheng Ying's face twitched obviously, and she asked in a hesitant manner, "Yet, still going?"

Her tone and movements were a bit reminiscent, especially the guards at the door, two of whom were about thirty years old, couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Ding Qin said, "Hmm." I'll be waiting for you in the house. ”

It didn't take long for Cheng Ying to really come. It can be seen that she deliberately dressed up and changed her clothes.

As soon as she entered the door, her expression was cold, with a somewhat questioning tone, "Why did you just say that? Don't you know that a girl's honor is very important?"

Ding Qin smiled apologetically, "Of course I know." That's exactly what I want to apologize to you. However, I don't mean to tease you, but I want to do it. ”

He paused, "Now, this wounded man is in my room. The main job of caring for and treating him falls on your shoulders. If you always sneak in and out of the window, it is inconvenient and easy to be discovered, and it is difficult to ensure the timeliness when the situation is urgent. ”

"So, if there's a valid reason for you to get in and out of my house, then those problems will be solved. I said, do you understand?"

After Ding Qin finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Ying and waited for Cheng Ying's reaction.

Cheng Ying frowned, her tone was still not very friendly, "I understand it, but what about my reputation?"

Ding Qin said, "Don't worry, as long as we explain it in the end, I believe they will admit that you are a good girl who endures humiliation." ”

"So, you let me sleep in this room yesterday, it was originally planned, right?" Cheng Ying sat directly at the table, facing Ding Qin on her side.

Ding Qin shook his head again and again, "No, this is just a momentary thought." During this time, I may have to ask you. Starting tomorrow, I'm going to refine the Red Sky Meteorite, and I'm not here most of the time. ”

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this half-dead man. After speaking, Cheng Ying was silent for a while, and then suddenly looked at Ding Qin, "You say, how will Mo Yin behave if he knows that I am sleeping in your house, or if I hear some rumors from those people?"

Ding Qin didn't answer directly, "Alas, I don't know where she is." ”

Cheng Ying asked again, "Then you say, I always sleep here, in case you get drunk one day......

Ding Qin shook his head directly, "I never drink." ”

As soon as a few words came out, the two were silent again. After dark, as last night, the two of them rested separately. Early the next morning, Ding Qin went out after eating and went straight to the guest house of the Bingqu Chengnan Council.

He's going to start refining the Red Sky Meteorite.

Although it was only the first time he came into contact with the smelting of this mineral, or rather, in the surviving memory, it was the first time to smelt, but Ding Qin's movements were not the slightest rusty. In front of those who recorded it, it was as if he was performing.

Every day, the content and method of smelting is different. By the seventh day, the twenty-four hedron had collapsed, and the red liquid flowed in an orderly manner in the incandescent container. On the fourteenth day, half a meter outside the incandescent crystal tripod was covered with a layer of golden mist, covering the inside tightly.

On the fifteenth day, Xiong Da came to the smelting room early in the morning to wait. In the morning, Ji Zhi, Pang Shi and other people also appeared here.

There was an urgent desire in everyone's eyes. In fact, even Ding Qin himself wanted to see what this rare Red Sky Meteorite would look like after it was refined.

He remembered that the description of the Red Sky Meteorite in his memory was that it was soft, like a stream, and as light as smoke. But how soft it is and how light it is, you can only know if you have seen it.

It's just that the fog around the incandescent crystal tripod now shows no signs of abating. People were amazed at the fog at first, but then it became clear that they couldn't hold it back.

Near evening, Xiong Da asked Ding Qin, "I don't know when this meteorite will be completed?"

Ding Qin used his spiritual power to test inward, but his spiritual power was completely isolated by the mist. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, "Heaven and earth treasures, when it can be completed, it also depends on the creation of heaven and earth." If it doesn't work out after tonight, then you can only practice for another half a month. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden mist showed obvious fluctuations, and then peeled down layer by layer as if it were solid. The peeling mist does not dissipate, but falls to the ground, slowly moving around the room along a specific pattern.

When the incandescent crystal tripod was revealed, these mist actually formed a complex formation in the room!
