Chapter 117: Temptation, Indulgence and Perseverance

In a small courtyard of the Yiguo Mansion, there is a table of home-cooked dishes with all colors and aromas in the living room, the first thing here is Ye Qingcheng as the master, the charming and agile woman standing behind Ye Qingcheng is the second maid, there are only two guests on the table, a middle-aged man who is elegant and extraordinary and a young man who is slightly restrained, the middle-aged man is Ye Qianzhi who came back from the north, and the young man is Lu Yuntao, a disciple he received in the north.

"Is there something Childe called us here today?",

Compared with the restrained and shy Lu Yuntao, Ye Qianzhi was much calmer, and after drinking a glass of alcohol, he directly asked the reason for tonight's banquet.

Although Ye Qingcheng is younger than Lu Yuntao, his human practice is by no means comparable to Lu Yuntao, he put down his wine glass and smiled and said, "Uncle is too polite, so I rushed to my uncle to accept such an excellent disciple as Senior Brother Yuntao, Qingcheng should also treat him, by the way, call me Qingcheng, Gongzi or something sounds weird and uncomfortable",

Ye Qianzhi smiled, but he didn't really respond, not to mention the talent and talent of the young man in front of him, even the identity of the big sect is not something that the last children of the small sect can stand side by, even if the rules are the rules, the Ye family has stood for more than 2,000 years, and naturally has its own standards.

Ye Qingcheng toasted a few glasses of wine and suddenly asked about the excavation of the Xuanwu Temple in the north last year, Ye Qianzhi saw that he seemed to be very interested, so he told him in detail what he knew, and as he spoke, he mentioned Lu Yuntao's experience in an underground mine, and naturally also mentioned Zheng Yan, only then did he know that Lu Yuntao and Zheng Yan were also old acquaintances,

Here Lu Yuntao heard that the personable boy in front of him was actually Zheng Yan's friend, and he also had a kind of relaxation of meeting his old acquaintance in a foreign land, and soon the two young people chatted together, especially after drinking a few more glasses of wine, and Ye Qianzhi's eyes were no longer useful, Lu Yuntao couldn't find the north when he drank, and praised the girl for her good looks, and she had to find such a daughter-in-law, not to mention that the key plate was good, good birth, and how to raise in bed, and finally Ye Qianzhi saw that Ye Qingcheng was also slightly drunk, and hurriedly dragged the apprentice away。

"Master, do you really want to give the slave to that Lu Gongzi?

Miao Ye helped Ye Qingcheng upstairs and said softly with a pretended grief, that look is really pitiful for me,

Ye Qingcheng closed his eyes and said with a smile, "Don't look down on others, to tell you the truth, I won't talk about the marquis in the future, maybe there will be a place for him in the three princes and nine kings, the poor and the lowly will share the weal and woe, and in the future, he will be a real lady of fate, you have also seen it, he is a person who values love and righteousness, and this is a hundred times stronger than being a maid here with me."

Miao Ye chuckled and said, "I have a personal life, and the slave and maid can't be the lady of the order, and I should be able to."

Ye Qingcheng was helpless, "You don't want to seize such an opportunity, it's no fun to think about it in the future, go, bring the map of the north, the most detailed one."

The big girl entered the house with a bowl of sweet tea, and glared at Miao Ye who was smiling evilly, "It's better for Gongzi to send this woman away, Lu Gongzi has a sentence that is very right, this woman's charm is too difficult to fill in the desire of a man, and a man must not touch this kind of woman if he wants to achieve his career."

Miao Ye was greatly dissatisfied, "When did Lu Gongzi say these words, are you hiding behind to be obedient or do you want to talk yourself?"

Ye Qingcheng turned two lines on the map and said with a smile, "What to send, I smashed my hand, I regret not being at the beginning, Zheng Yan is really prescient in terms of women",

I took the lamp and said with a smile, "Your Royal Highness is talking about it now, and in a few years, maybe every year the cave room will be filled with candles."

Ye Qingcheng was helpless, "It's not big or small, by the way, there is a female cultivator of the Xiandu Gate named Yu Xiuxian who will pay more attention in the future, I heard that she has gained a firm foothold in Sedum Prison, how is the knife ruler and Xie Yanguang checking?",

I retracted my joking expression and said softly, "There is not much useful information that can be found in a hurry, Gongzi will listen to it first, the sword ruler is a disciple of the Ni Department of Xiandu Gate Xie Yanguang is a disciple of the Fire Department, these two people are among the best among the younger generation of Xiandu Gate, they had secretly run out last autumn, according to them when they went back to confess that they were a little entangled with His Royal Highness the Eight, but the slave maid synthesized the results of the investigation, and felt that their departure at that time seemed to be deliberately arranged."

Ye Qingcheng leaned back in the chair, thought about it, nodded and said, "Go on,

I pondered for a moment and continued, " A few days before His Royal Highness left Luoyang City, he was suddenly activated Sancheng physique, and he hurried out of the house after resting for a few days without a good idea, that is to say, the Sancheng physique that was suddenly activated was very unstable, according to An Guogong's favor for His Royal Highness, it should not be like this, it can only be said that there is an urgent matter or something has been arranged to help His Royal Highness recover halfway, at that time, Xiandumen has begun to contact with Sedum Prison, and the slave maid is thinking, maybe Xiandumen took the initiative to arrange a few disciples to approach His Royal Highness in order to please An Guogong, or An Guogong proposed to test their bottom line”,

Ye Qingcheng fell into contemplation again, and said softly on the side, "If the master wants to analyze all the experiences of His Royal Highness Eight along the way to find out the real culprit who murdered His Highness, it may be very complicated, maybe it should be from the perspective of the significance of His Highness's northward trip."

Seeing that the master was a little embarrassed, she thought about it and said, "Two days ago, the slave maid saw Miss Yingyue, most of these are also what Miss Yingyue told the slave maid, but about the significance of His Royal Highness's trip, it seems that it involves some games between Qin Tianjian and Jingtianjian, and Guanqiu Si should also be involved, although Qi Sacrificial Wine also appeared in this matter, his attitude is relatively unclear."

The two women looked at Ye Qingcheng for a while, Ye Qingcheng thought for a long time, and finally ate the sweet tea in the bowl and sneered, "Qin Tianjian and Guanqiu Si probably want to use Zheng Yan to do something, those families and some external forces probably want to destroy, so they hire killers to kill, maybe there are indeed people who don't want the Zheng clan to rise and want to get rid of Zheng Yan, the spokesperson of the future clan, but I think it's more likely to be the former",

Miao Ye asked suspiciously, "Then why didn't the Duke of Anguo and the Zongren Mansion do anything?

Ye Qingcheng's eyes were dark, and he said softly, "There are only a few people in the whole world who can exert pressure on these two places, who is it?" Taihua has heard that it has been very lively recently, and many people are rushing over there, this guy asked him to get out early and risk himself, what can he do if he sees it clearly?"

Zheng Yuan and Gu Tailai walked together on a boundless Gobi Desert, the sun was hanging low, the two of them were already physically and mentally exhausted, and the key hunger and thirst were the most fatal, so it was like being in a claustrophobic furnace, the furnace was empty, and the body was also empty.

The young man who brought them in said that this was not an illusion, it was the real world, and they needed to go all the way west, to a secret realm surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and ascend to a platform on the high mountain in the center of the secret realm.

I don't know how many people came, as soon as the two came in, they only saw each other, first through the mountains and mountains, they saw countless rare beasts and all kinds of strange alien races, tall and strong blue-faced aliens with their upper bodies exposed, and the strength contained in the body of more than a foot high was terrifying, and the martial artists of about five or six realms couldn't last a few rounds;

The red-eyed and red-haired ones can control fire freely, the ones with graceful bodies and beautiful faces who live by water, the ones who are short and knee-high and the quirky, those who have six arms that can crawl or stand upright, and so on, either they have great strength or move quickly, and then they can control some specific power, like elves.

Most of these Inhumans exist in the form of tribes, just like the legendary Wuzhu era, there are also exquisite and powerful blades forged, but I haven't seen their foundry workshops and mines, in short, these Inhumans are really strong, inherently powerful, in fact, you can understand when you see those murderous beasts living around them, this is a choice, Inhumans who are not strong enough must have been eaten early, and they can't reproduce naturally.

In addition to the alien beasts, the two also saw a lot of divine beasts and spirit beasts such as dragons, phoenixes, snakes, and Bai Ze, is this really the glass world? It turns out that there are also fights and endless battles, and this way is thanks to some unique concealment methods from Gu Tailai, and then Zheng Yuan's powerful magic weapon secret technique, if he can't dodge, he will fight and retreat, and finally it took more than three years to get out of the mountains, and then he stepped into an endless water.

After the water is the grassland, after the grassland is the mountain, but the mountain here is much better than the first place to settle, before it was the lonely and dangerous and unpredictable, this time it is desolate and stretched, thick and remote, relatively simple I don't know how much, I can almost see the end of the sky from afar, and it is not the claustrophobic before, and the strange beasts and aliens who live here are also extremely powerful.

Finally walked out of the mountains and walked into the desert Gobi, fortunately, the two of them prepared a lot of dried meat and drinking water before they really stepped in, and saved money all the way to solve it on the spot, even so, half a year later, especially after saving a blue bird from the east, they still fell into a situation of hunger and thirst, and fought for their own cultivation for a few more days, and now they finally couldn't support it, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly and slowly fell down together, feeling that there seemed to be a shadow flowing away above their heads.

Zheng Yuan woke up slowly, feeling that his body was extremely tired, and he wanted to sleep and die, but he suddenly thought that he had been in a glass world for the past few years, and his life and death were unpredictable, so he struggled to sit up, and saw a familiar figure sitting beside him,

"Starfrost, why are you here too?",

"Who is Star Frost, is it good to look good with me?",

What responded to Zheng Yuan was not Xingshuang's usual lightness, but a voice full of softness and affection,

Zheng Yuan woke up suddenly, and looked at the person in front of him was indeed not the Xingshuang he had been thinking about day and night in the past few years, but a beautiful woman in her twenties wearing a light white veil with plump skin and jade muscles.

The woman in front of him is the first real person Zheng Yuan has seen when he comes to this world, and he can't say that, he should be the closest human being to his own world, why is it close? Because Zheng Yuan subconsciously felt that the woman's breath was a little strange, not popular, as if he had seen it somewhere, it was very tempting, this was by no means tempting because it was beautiful and moving.

"Did the girl save me?"

Zheng Yuan finally settled down and asked, but his voice was hoarse, the woman brought a glass of water very intimately, and she had to feed Zheng Yuan with her own hands before she smiled and said, "Don't worry, your friend is next door, he woke up in the morning, ate some liquid food and fell asleep, I also prepared some for you, I don't know how long you have been in a coma outside, we found that you have been seven days now, and you are also strong, I am afraid that you will not be able to survive."

Zheng Yuan noticed that there was a bowl next to him, and there was a cotton swab in the bowl, thinking that someone had been dipping himself in water, and he couldn't help but be full of gratitude, saving his life.

"Girl, what is this place?",

While eating the porridge that seemed to be added with honey, Zheng Yuan asked seriously, after all, he can be said to know nothing about this world,

"This is the flowing wind and the sea, we are a branch of the Xu Yin tribe living here, the Youran tribe",

"Xu Yin Clan!",

Zheng Yuan couldn't help but speak, no wonder he was so attracted to the woman, no wonder he was a little familiar, it turned out that he was also from the Xu Yin tribe like Qing Zhai, is there also a Xu Yin tribe here?

Seeing Zheng Yuan's strange expression, the woman asked curiously, "What's the matter? Have you seen people from our other tribes before?"

Zheng Yuan shook his head, and told his origin, the woman was surprised when she heard it, or it was very interesting, at this time, there was a voice outside, the woman next to the bed hurriedly got up, and soon two figures walked in, just a glance, Zheng Yuan's breathing stopped completely,

I saw a woman wearing a tight black gauze walking over, her mature and plump figure was unobstructed, her fair skin was dazzling against the backdrop of the black gauze, and her charming and delicate face under the majesty was really unstoppable, Zheng Yan wanted to look away.

After some introduction, I learned that the person who came was the patriarch and priest of the Youran tribe of the Xuyin tribe, all of whom were women in their thirties and forties, with the same charm and different temperament, one majestic and one quiet, but they were all full of charm, perhaps because of the influence of their breath.

Soon the two big men were a little easy-going or enthusiastic, Zheng Yuan was naturally flattered, since he was a child, he had never seen such a woman in the clan who was so moving at a glance!

When they learned that Zheng Yuan was going to the snow-capped mountains in the west, several women present were a little clear, saying that every few hundred or thousands of years, people from the east would go to that legendary secret realm, but they had never seen or heard of their return, so they persuaded Zheng Yuan to stay here, Zheng Yuan actually agreed, several women were very happy, and he was also very happy.

Dugu Taki-hyun turned into a humanoid form again, and insisted on not turning out of the ontology again, Xingwei too, everyone else was a little puzzled, Dugu Taki-hyun naturally had no meaning to explain, Xingwei smiled and said that since it is to come to practice, you should create more hardships for yourself, and both the ontology and the human form need to be strengthened, who knows when it will be used when you return to the original world, and the others finally understand, in fact, everyone knows this truth, but because they are too bored to find some topics, or just want to talk to them about something to close the distance.

It's really boring, even if you keep encountering all kinds of challenges, constantly experiencing life and death tests, and constantly recovering from injuries, maybe it's because of this that it's boring, you can't say it's boring, and it's a bit lonely like water.

It's really strange to say, in the original world, everyone was also a spirit who had cultivated for thousands of years, which time wasn't it a few hundred years of retreat, and a few hundred years of only staying in the cave secret room was not more boring than here? But now it's boring, uncomfortable from the inside out, except for Pei Lang Ru Dugu Takihyun and Xingwei, everyone else is more or less out of control,

Grumpy, irritable who wants to destroy everything, at first the sober people will try their best to suppress, mainly too attractive to those foraging beasts, but then give up, it is better to let them vent to their heart's content, suppression will only accumulate, accumulation can not be eliminated will one day erupt, the flood is naturally more devastating than a trickle.

Spirits and demons generally don't cultivate their minds, and they don't have any heart knots congenitally, on the contrary, if they cultivate their minds, it is possible to produce heart knots and eventually evolve into demon barriers, so the spirits will do whatever they want, and it is easy to be dominated by the heart, Li Zhubei and Xingwei feel that there are three main reasons why there will be irritability and irritability, one is that everyone's strengthening of the body is a little drastic, and the strong body will affect the heart, and if the heart can't keep up with the growth of strength, it will be uncomfortable; Because they were able to open up spiritual cultivation among thousands of people of the same kind, to this extent, it has always been full of competition, and thirdly, because the relationship between the origin makes it impossible for both the body and the state of mind to be compatible with this world, and they are mutually exclusive.

It's just that the general spirit cultivation pays attention to conforming to the original heart, once what is done is contrary to the original intention, it may produce what the human race said to go mad, and the Tao will not advance but retreat, and now in the face of this situation, it stands to reason that the ontology should be turned into the ontology to deal with it as you like, rather than abandoning the ontology in order to strengthen the hardships and dangers of the experience.

Qinglu said that if you turn into a human form, then the state of mind should also be a human heart, but this sentence made the expressions of several people a little strange, especially Li Zhubei and Zong Xu, Jingyang glanced at Dugu Takihyun without any meaning, but it seemed to mean anything, Pei Langru also turned into a human form without saying anything.

It has been almost a hundred years since a group of thirteen people came to this world, in fact, most of them have no concept of time, but Pei Langru and Xingwei sometimes mention it.
