Chapter Twenty-Six: The Book of Exorcists

Huang Chong smiled proudly: "Let me tell you, I have experience in dealing with children. When to be hard, when to be soft, when to coax, how to coax, there are all methods, and you can't fool around. For example, if you are on the street and you see a child fooling around and not coming home, what do you think you can do to get him to come home immediately? ”

Long Tianlin shook his head blankly.

Huang Chong hooked his lips secretly: "You just attached it to his ear and whispered, if you don't go home, I will blow your head, and he will definitely go home obediently." ”

Long Tianlin had a stunned expression on his face.

Huang Chong patted him on the shoulder: "There is still a long way to go, learn from your predecessors." ”

"you. Long Tianlin pushed Huang Chong away, "Give you some color and you will open a dyeing workshop." ”

The next morning, Long Yuanwu and Long Tianlin went to court together.

The ministers lined up in turn, and after King Annam sat on the throne, they saluted at the same time, and the mountain shouted long live.

Xuanwu King Chu Anan waved his hand: "No courtesy." "Chu Anan is now fifty-four years old, with a strong body, good looks, and extraordinary bearing.

The ministers got up and said, "May my king live a long life, and God bless the Xuanwu Kingdom and Tai Anbang." ”

When the voice gradually fell silent, Long Tianlin stepped out of the queue sideways: "Qiyu my king, the minister has escorted the princess Yuhan to Ji'an, and I don't know when it can be sent to the palace." ”

"The general has worked hard all the way, and he has made meritorious contributions to protecting the princess, and he will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold. As he spoke, he turned to the eunuch beside him and asked the eunuch when it was appropriate to enter the palace, and the eunuch replied that it would be an auspicious day in three days, and everything would be suitable. Chu Anan said, "Just three days later." ”

Long Tianlin bowed his hand: "The affairs of the ministers do not dare to receive the reward." ”

"Does the general not like this yellow and white thing, or does he want this king to reward you with something else?" Chu Anan looked at Long Tianlin kindly, speaking of which, he could also be regarded as watching Long Tianlin grow up, knowing that he had an upright character and acted maturely and steadily, and now he was able to serve the country and achieve such an achievement, he was deeply grateful. He has two daughters, the eldest daughter is named Chu Yunke, who has married Chen Han, the eldest son of Mrs. Chen. His second daughter, named Chu Yunzhen, is fifteen years old, but she intended to give it to Tianlin, but she has never had a chance to mention it, but now with this engine oil, she pushed the boat down the river, "This king wants to marry you, I don't know what you want." ”

Unexpectedly, Long Tianlin was a little stunned.

Long Yuanwu hurriedly saluted and said: "If the king gives you a marriage, it will be a blessing for my Long family." ”

Chu Anan stared at Long Tianlin: "What does the general think?"

Long Tianlin said: "The minister is grateful. ”

Long Yuanwu said: "I don't know which lady the king wants to marry for Xiao'er?"

Chu Anan said: "The second daughter of this king, Chu Yunzhen, is fifteen years old, and she is at the right age for marriage, I don't know how?"

Long Yuanwu immediately prostrate on the ground: "It is really a fortunate thing for my Long family in the past generations, and the minister is grateful to bless my king's great virtue." ”

Even if Long Tianlin was reluctant, he could only kneel down and thank him. What his grandmother said to him since he was a child is still in his ears: "Tianlin, when you grow up, you must choose a girl you like and spend this life." ”

The carriage escorting the princess has entered the Dragon Mansion, and when she got up in the morning, she heard the noise outside the door, so it was not lively, so she asked Xia Zitong, Xia Zitong touched the top of her head: "Outside, it is Tianlin's subordinates, they want to escort the princess into the palace." ”

Crooked eyes sparkled: "Has the game started?"

"What game?"

Crooked found that he was speechless, and hurriedly shook his head and said that it was nothing.

Xia Zitong took his crooked hand, went around to the back of the bed, and took down a sandalwood box on the alcove. led Crooked to the table again, and said to Crooked while opening the box: "Since Qi'er left, I have always had a wish. Xia Zitong took out the yellowed book in the box and put it in front of his crooked eyes, "This is the exorcist manual, exorcists are the vocation of the Long family, but except for Qi'er, no one in the Long family is an exorcist anymore." I don't want to see the Long family's vocation cut off in my hands. But you're here, and you're so similar to Qi'er, I think that's the will of God. ”

Crookedly flipping through the "Exorcist's Handbook" with his hand, the front of the book is some text, and the back is a portrait drawing.

Xia Zitong said: "This is the portrait of the exorcists of the past generations. ”

When Xia Zitong's voice fell, his crooked hand stopped on the last portrait, which showed an incomparably beautiful and heroic woman, holding a dazzling sword in her hand. Looking at the word next to the name, I only know the dragon character, but I don't know the other two words.

"Mother, what is the handwriting?"

"Long Yingge. Xia Zitong's gaze began to blur, "She is my daughter, Long Qi." ”

The two words Long Qi were like a thunderbolt in the crooked brain, and they kept saying Qi'er, Qi'er, so she didn't care. The family's surname is Long, and the so-called Qi'er is also Long Qi, she didn't expect it.

Ryuqi! a name that had appeared a thousand times in her nightmares.

"I've heard the name. "Said crookedly.

Xia Zitong's face was happy: "Really, where have you heard it." ”

"In a dream. ”

"In a dream?" The crooked answer made Xia Zitong puzzled, "What kind of dream is it?"

Crookedly told Xia Zitong about his dream, and Xia Zitong fell into a long silence after hearing it. Baby, who is that baby, but the crooked in front of him?

After a while, he looked at Xia Zitong with a crooked face: "Mother, can you be as ...... as Long Qi if you are an exorcist?" ”

Xia Zitong nodded: "Naturally." ”

The crooked eyes smiled into a cute crescent moon: "Okay, I'll be an exorcist." She couldn't explain what the yearning in her heart was, she only knew that it was so strong that she couldn't resist it.

Xia Zitong turned around and walked to the corner, and after a while, he returned with a small ice jade box, took out a thing from it, and put it on his crooked neck: "This is the Dragon Scale of the East China Sea, it is the treasure of my Dragon Family, and it is only passed on to those who are willing to take on the responsibility of exorcism." ”

He tilted his head and looked down at the half-moon-shaped, shimmering blue scales, and he didn't realize that he was in a trance.

Xia Zitong flipped the exorcist manual to the home page and said: "Follow me, I am crooked, I am willing to take the righteousness of the world as my own responsibility, do not favor favoritism, do not take profit, keep the right and ward off evil, exorcise demons and defend the way, and do my best to protect the people in the world." If this oath is violated, there is no place to die. ”

Crookedly followed the recitation sentence by sentence, and when I read it later, I couldn't help asking: "What is death without a place to be buried." ”

Xia Zitong was asked, thinking about how to explain this sentence euphemistically to a twelve-year-old child, and suddenly, Yinuo poked his head out of the door: "Crooked, go and practice, Long Tianlin is back." ”

"Oh. Crookedly agreed, she ran out of the door, and was grabbed by Xia Zitong and helped her stuff the East China Sea dragon scales into her clothes: "When walking in the world, the most taboo is Lu Bao." Not to mention that the treasure will be robbed, it may also be killed. “

Crookedly thought that he was taken away and sold to the first floor of the world, and he unconsciously shuddered. The East China Sea dragon scales guarding his heart secretly thought, I have to practice hard.

The scales of the East China Sea dragon in the clothes suddenly shone brightly, and then disappeared slowly.

At the moment when the crooked figure disappeared from Xia Zitong's sight, Xia Zitong saw that the exorcist's manual suddenly turned a page, and on the blank paper on the next page, a human form slowly emerged, and when the faint ink became clearer and clearer, Xia Zitong suddenly found that the human figure was actually the appearance of a girl who had just left, and an ink dot on the side moved quickly and wrote three words - dragon crooked.

Sure enough, she's the chosen one!

Everything is providential!

In the martial arts training field, Long Tianlin's expression was gloomy, standing dumbfounded, the events of the court meeting lingered in his mind, I am afraid that he is the only one in the world who is not happy with the king's marriage.

On the contrary to him, Long Yuanwu, who had returned, was full of spring, and immediately went to greet Long Zhan and his wife and inform him of the news of the marriage. Being able to marry a princess is a good thing that many people can't dream of. Long Zhan was overjoyed when he heard this, and decided to celebrate.

Xia Zitong interrupted him: "Is Tianlin willing to do this?"

Long Yuanwu waved his hand: "What is he unwilling, this is a great thing." ”

Xia Zitong said meaningfully: "It's better to ask Qing Tianlin, don't cause another tragedy." ”

Long Yuanwu said: "Mother is too worried. After saying that, he laughed and strode away.

Long Tianlin absentmindedly demonstrated the second level - seeing all the moves of Long Zaitian, he threw down the stick: "You guys practice, I'll come over to check it later." ”

The back of his departure was extremely lonely, which made Crooked feel a little guilty: Did I have a bad attitude when I practiced and made him unhappy?"

Yinuo also said: "What's wrong with him today, it's like he has no soul." ”

"I don't know. Crookedly holding the wooden sword, it flew like a snake. Yinuo on the side was dumbfounded: "Did you steal school behind my back? ”

Crooked raised his eyes and thought for a moment: "I don't know, these moves involuntarily flow out of my body." ”

When Yinuo heard this, he suddenly felt mysterious and mysterious: "Could it be that this is what Master Fuchenzi said about having a wisdom root and an epiphany." ”

patted Yinuo's back crookedly, imitating the appearance of the dust whisker in the past and comforting him: "You are already great, don't be discouraged, don't be discouraged." ”

Long Tianlin revealed his plan to Princess Yuhan's maidservant Chunlan and Pan, and promised that after the matter was completed, he would give her a sum of money to restore her freedom. While Chunlan agreed, she put forward her own request, hoping that Long Tianlin would take her parents out of Weiguo to relieve her worries.

Long Tianlin excused himself that the princess was cold and needed to recuperate, so he kept sending someone to guard an empty room. When the house slaves heard that the princess was married, they all gathered around to see the true face, and they all returned in a huff.

In the next few days, Chunlan gave a little guidance on the etiquette of the crooked court, as well as Princess Yuhan's previous words and deeds. Anyway, Yuhan doesn't have much grace, and it's easy to teach.

In addition, Long Tianlin also seized the time to teach her the third level of the secret skill, the dragon walking tiger step, hoping that when she encountered danger, she could at least protect herself. The court is a whirlpool of power struggles, and it is not known what will happen at that time. Long Tianlin sighed, now he is also difficult to ride a tiger, so he can only take one step at a time.
