Chapter Twenty-Three: The Veil of the Night

The only alley leading to Forgotten Hills.

It's late at night, and no matter how lively the gathering is, it's over. The alleys are secluded, with only the sound of the wind blowing, and the occasional rat passing through them, searching for leftovers.

A mouse ran by, and was pleasantly surprised to find some bread crumbs, but before it could take it away, it was kicked and flew to the ground.

"My lord, it looks like they won't be coming out tonight. On both sides of the alley, dozens of black-clothed people crept quietly, arranged in an orderly manner, with a sense of immediacy of a soldier.

These people are the guards of Prince Derui's palace.

"Withdraw. "At the head were two cloth-clothed men, one of whom was the mustache who had fought with Yunfeng before. Beside him was a tall man in a cloak.

"Senior brother, just let them go like this?" The mustache was very unwilling, even if the violinist had entered the heavens, but in the face of dozens of elites in the palace, it would be difficult to retreat, and there was also a senior brother to suppress the formation, and he would definitely be able to defeat it in shame.

"So what do you want to do? The tall man was contemptuous, a little dissatisfied. I thought that because your skills are not as good as others, I will accompany you to wait here, and now they can't come out of the nest, and they can't stay here with you overnight. Even if I want, the girls in Yihong Courtyard are still waiting for me.

"Withdraw. The tall man repeated the order, and the alley suddenly crowded with people, and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

The mustache gritted his teeth, looked at the faint lights of the villa, and reluctantly followed the team away.

......

......

Yunfeng didn't feel sleepy.

"Septet?" Sometimes gentle, sometimes surging and exciting, the sound of the piano still echoes in the ears, and the invincible sound wave is not tight in front of me.

The integration of the five elements into the strings and the vibration of the fire make a cultivator with the triple qi gathering daunting of what kind of realm he must cultivate in order to use the qi so superbly.

"Looks like I'm being nosy. Yunfeng laughed to himself. Previously, he asked Su Wuyu what would happen to Lan'er if he didn't make a move, but with Jiang Shuihan's cultivation, even if he made a move at the last moment, it would definitely be fine.

As soon as he arrived in Lostant, he was involved in trouble, far from the original plan, but Yunfeng did not regret it, if he did it again, I am afraid he would not turn a blind eye.

This is also the first time he has fought with someone since he stepped into the path of cultivation, although he will receive the "baptism" of Tsukihime every day in the twilight forest, but only in the actual combat of life and death can it be possible to comprehend the true meaning of Xingqi.

"How can I perceive?" Yun Feng closed his eyes, carefully feeling everything around him. The wind, the air, the scent of flowers, and the chirping of cicadas, all of which are composed of the five elements, are clearly and ubiquitously, filling every corner, wrapping himself, but no matter how he searches, he still can't feel the elemental particles wandering in between.

What kind of existence is unknown.

The reason why Yun Feng was able to withstand those two punches tonight was entirely due to the power of the Spirit Star Dance, and after this fight, he clearly realized the gap between the mortal fetus of the flesh and the gathering of qi.

Although the power of the five elements in the stage of perception and qi gathering has not yet been used by oneself, it is the beginning of a qualitative change, a transformation from zero to one between ordinary people and practitioners. In the final analysis, no matter how powerful the mortal body is, it will not be able to resist the power of heaven and earth. Only with the help of the five elements can it be possible to refine and cleanse the marrow, be reborn, comprehend the laws of nature, and achieve immortality.

"Forget it, don't think about it. Finding nothing, Yunfeng's anxious mood gradually calmed down and refocused his attention on the battle with the mustache. How to learn skills from his opponent, make up for his own shortcomings, and then defeat him is another concept that Tsukihime taught him.

Stiffened the mustache with two punches, Yun Feng's body was already bearing a huge burden, but after enduring the exhaustion and finishing the Spirit Star Dance, he felt that the injury was a little better, and various body functions seemed to have been repaired a lot.

With a longing for the path of the walker, Yunfeng fell asleep.

And his body was quietly carrying out some kind of subtle activity. The bone joints that were torn by the mustache are healing several times faster than ordinary people, and the wound on the back of the hand is gradually condensing into a scar.

In the dream, Yunfeng floated in a chaotic space, surrounded by small and turbid particles like dust, he stretched out his index finger, and many of them were absorbed and stopped at the tips of his fingers.

Could it be that this is the Five Elements Elemental?Yun Feng was ecstatic, although he had not yet determined, but this sense of mystery had never been felt before, and his intuition told him that these tiny dust must not be ordinary things.

Just as Yunfeng was immersed in this moment, he suddenly felt a danger approaching, and reflexively woke up from his dream, relying on his instinctive reaction to press the approaching object to the bed, first to ensure that it could not threaten himself. It's a natural vigilance, and when she was in the twilight forest, Tsukihime discovered that Yunfeng had a sense of danger that ordinary people couldn't match.

"Is it you?" After the person was pressed down, Yun Feng saw the other party's face clearly, so he let go of the hand that was holding his throat.

Lan'er coughed a few times, this was the second time tonight that she was almost frightened by the sudden cloud wind, but this time she deserved it, who let her come in quietly.

"Childe. Lan'er said softly, the moment she was pressed down, she clearly felt a cold murderous aura.

"It's so late, what's wrong?" Confirming that Lan'er could not pose a threat to him, Yun Feng put away his momentum, but he did not completely relax his vigilance.

"Cough ......" Lan'er tried to suppress her cough, her breathing had not yet recovered from the fright, she turned her face and said shyly: "Childe......"

Yun Feng realized at this time that the other party's shoulders were still pressed by himself, and the distance between them was so close, and the girl's gasp hit his face, so he quickly let go of his hand and said, "I'm sorry." ”

Lan'er sat up and tidied up her clothes, her cheeks were still a little rosy, and she bowed her head and said, "I just want to thank my son for saving his life." ”

"It's not that serious. Yun Feng said frankly, "I'm just a head, it's Jiang Shuihan who really saved you, if it weren't for him, I might not be able to protect myself." ”

"And it's not a lifesaver. ”

"Yes. Without waiting for Yun Feng to finish speaking, Lan'er replied resolutely. Yun Feng saw sincerity in her eyes when she looked at her, maybe for the girl in front of her, loss of virginity is no different from death.

"Okay. Yun Feng turned his gaze back, no longer shirked, and looked at the bookbag on the bed and suddenly had an idea: "Didn't I take your pastry, I can't help but do something." ”

Yun Feng sneered, admiring his wit, he wanted to use this to change the topic and liven up the awkward atmosphere, but Lan'er was silent.

"Uh...... It's not ......."

"Childe. Lan'er once again stood up as if she had made up her mind before Yun Feng finished speaking.

Yun Feng noticed that Lan'er was only wearing a thin veil, and although the moonlight was faint, she could still faintly see her snow-white skin. The breeze blows, and the tulle is swaying.

Although Lan'er is a maid, her appearance is not inferior to the so-called ladies, with a delicate little face, a pair of big eyes that can speak, and the kind of hard-working strength, which is enough to make people feel excited. At this time, the pair of bamboo shoots and jade hands that didn't seem to have done heavy work were slowly undoing the only two buttons on the tulle......

The tulle slid down the smooth skin, and the seductive body of a young girl appeared in front of the overwhelmed Yunfeng.

Soft curves, snow-white skin as white as moonlight, women's development is earlier than men, Lan'er is already slim at this time, although God gave her a poor background, but also gave her a beautiful body.

Yunfeng wanted to escape, but he couldn't take his eyes off it.

Lan'er stood in front of Yun Feng barefoot like this, her face was flushed, her slender jade legs were in full view, and the green and warm body fragrance made Yun Feng's heart beat faster, and she was scorched by the scorching sun.

"Childe, you may think Lan'er is a frivolous person. Although Lan'er had made plans when she came, how could she not be shy when she stripped off her clothes in front of a person of the opposite sex and lost all the reserve of women. In fact, it takes a lot of courage.

"But please believe that this is Lan'er's first time. Lan'er said calmly, her shyness gradually faded, and was replaced by a more determined look: "No matter how Childe looks at me, I will not have any complaints." ”

"Childe......" Lan'er's faint gasp was even more seductive, and she was about to untie the only red belly pocket left on her body as she spoke......

"Holy, what kind of rhythm is this. Things had gone far beyond Yunfeng's expectations, but this time he didn't let Lan'er do it, but stood up and held her hand.

Yun Feng thinks that he is not a humble gentleman, nor is he a person who does not eat the fireworks of the world, but he will not take advantage of the danger of others, and he will not accept this kind of repayment.

"You don't owe me anything. Yun Feng walked around Lan'er's waist and grabbed her hand on the red rope, stopping her from making her next move. However, this made the two of them closer, Yunfeng and Lan'er were at the same height, and their eyes looked more ambiguous.

"What's more, what's the point of what you've been waiting for before. ”

"It's different. It is undeniable that Lan'er did repay her gratitude at the beginning, but if she hadn't developed feelings for Yunfeng, she wouldn't have been so willing and affectionate.

"Hear me, Lan'er. Yun Feng explained to her like an elder brother who loved his sister, "I don't want to get anything in return from you when I help you. In life, people will always encounter all kinds of difficulties, sometimes they can't overcome it by their own strength, the lucky ones can get the help of others to get through the difficulties, and the unfortunate ones can only bear the hardships alone, so why not increase the probability of luck, so I hope that when you have the ability, you can also help others. ”

When Yun Feng said this at the beginning, he mainly wanted to lighten his kindness in Lan'er's heart, so that she would not be burdened. But if you think about it carefully, from the moment he was born, the help he has received has never stopped - Uncle Jing sacrificed his life to save him, the grace of Yueji's recreation, and the feeling of Jiang Shui Han's retreat from the enemy.

"I see. Lan'er finally gave up the decision to make a promise, and the grievances and unwillingness she suffered at night came in an instant, tears fell, and she choked up: "Lan'er must remember what Gongzi said." ”

The sobbing Lan'er was even more touching, Yun Feng couldn't help but feel pity, picked up the tulle, and put it on the other party again: "You don't need to take a bite of a son, my name is Yun Ji." ”

"Then can I call you Brother Ji?" Lan'er sobbed and said indistinctly.

Brother Ji, Brother Chicken, and Yunfeng realized that he seemed to have taken a fake name that should never have been taken.
