Chapter Twenty-Three: Lin Zhentian
At the same time, in Mei Yuanhang's study, Mei Wu was standing in front of the desk with his hands tied, staring at the half of the incense stick in Mei Yuanhang's hand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Mansion Master, can you see what is famous in this incense?" Seeing the Mansion Master's solemn face and a little muttering, Mei Wu swallowed the liquid in his mouth and asked.
This incense is the spirit repelling incense that Mei Han obtained from under the python's mouth, the whole body is dark red, and a layer of blood mist lingers, emitting a strong smell of blood, and for a while, the room is filled with evil smells.
Mei Yuanhang's brows couldn't help frowning, and he vaguely guessed the origin of this incense: "This should be called the curse spirit incense, the incense branch itself is condensed by the blood and resentment of some kind of demon beast spirit, and the power of the curse is exerted in it, the incense branch is ignited, and the smell spreads, which will make a certain demon beast curse poison, full of vendetta and murder."
The Shi family did come to a person named Batu some time ago, and it seems that this is this person's means. After a simple analysis of Mei Wu's report, Mei Yuanhang analyzed this conclusion.
"This Shi family is really too much, last month we seized the minerals of our Mei family, and a few days ago they made trouble in public, injuring Mei Jian and Mei Shi, two young masters. I think they are determined to join forces with the Lin family to deal with our Mei family. Otherwise, we will dispatch the Meiying Guards to attack Huanglong and completely occupy Shilin Town. It also saves them from messing around behind their backs. ā
"You, this temper still can't be changed, our Mei family is an outsider, if we do this, won't it make everyone in Shilin Town misunderstand that my Mei family is bullying. The reputation of a dove occupying the magpie's nest is not good, not to mention the strength of the two Shilin families who have secretly planned recently, we have not found out in detail. Let's be patient first, the enemy is dark, I clearly show that the other party is afraid of my Mei family, and the recent actions behind the scenes also show the anxiety of the opponent. Ignore this kind of petty fight for the time being, do a good job of prevention, strengthen the training of the guards, and I will let them understand that my Mei family is not a soft persimmon. ā
......
Night is gradually falling, and the moon is crooked tonight, like the smiling eyeliner of a beautiful girl, exuding a faint blue.
"Third brother, where are you going to take me?"
"Shhhh ā
After a while, under the leadership of Mei Han, Xiang'er appeared by a river full of abundant grass, reflecting a starry river, and sometimes a cool wind drifted to both sides, with a touch of water.
"Xiang'er, remember when I told you that I was going to take you to a beautiful place?" took a deep breath, Mei Han smiled.
"Of course I do, but it's a pity that you later-"
"Today I'm going to fulfill my promise. You close your eyes first. ā
"Why did you close your eyes and make it mysterious? Although Xiang'er complained a little in language, she still closed her eyes obediently.
A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he ran to the front and took out the bamboo pole prepared in the evening from the ground, and ran forward with one hand and one rod.
The bamboo poles scraped the green grass, and two waves of grass slowly swept forward under the starry sky.
The moon in the sky shone a faint blue light, the river was shrouded in smoke, and there was a rumbling sound of friction as Mei Han ran away in the quiet night.
The grass was originally dark, but as the bamboo poles passed, suddenly a little fluorescence flashed in the deep grass, and these fluorescences slowly flew into the sky, like small stars fluttering on the grass.
It was a lovely firefly, flashing with the light of life.
"Open your eyes!" A cheer fell into Xiang'er's ears, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes gently, countless fireflies appeared in her eyes, she exclaimed involuntarily, and her two slender little hands covered her small mouth in surprise, and her face was full of disbelief.
"Third brother, this is ......"
"Stars for you. ā
"It's so beautiful. She ran involuntarily, her arms outstretched, her sleeves fluttering in the wind, she spun gently like an elf.
Xiang'er saw the fireflies blooming in the deep grass, and then swaying up and flying in front of her, and she was very happy, filled with happiness and joy. She closed her eyes and felt the charm of nature's spirits.
Even in the dim moonlight tonight, the beams of fireflies seem insignificant, but when countless fireflies fly up and gather together, they shine like pearls, but they also surpass the brightest moonlight, reflecting the incomparable brightness of the heavens and the earth.
Suddenly, Xiang'er's body glowed red, and she flew up in the void, floating to the center of the starlight, and then began to dance.
With the rhythm of the flying fireflies, she danced lightly, sometimes raised her wrists and lowered her eyebrows, and sometimes lightly soothed her hands, without being deliberately pretentious at all, every movement was natural and smooth, like a white lotus out of the water. The slender Luo clothes fluttered in the wind, and the long sleeves crisscrossed left and right. The endless posture flew and scattered, and the twisted figures merged hands and feet.
The charming wonderful body, the superb dancing, the jade face is clear, the green silk is dyed, and the fairy is like a spirit, as if appearing in the realm of dreams.
Accompanied by Xiang'er's graceful dancing, the fireflies in the sky gathered around her body, gently swaying youxuan.
The fantastic scene like a dream directly plunged Mei Han into a deep addiction.
This kind of dance, he has not never seen it, in the past, every season when the cold and snow are flying, Xiang'er is always willing to dance for him, but now it is in the middle of summer night, accompanied by fireflies, dancing in the air, with the posture of a fairy, fluttering out of the dust.
After a long time, Mei Han also came to his senses, he was stunned, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and couldn't believe what he was seeing. What surprised him was that Xiang'er's beautiful dancing posture was as charming as a fairy, but Xiang'er would actually float in the air.
This is the skill of flying, you must know that only a martial artist in the condensation period can convert the true qi in the body into the true element, so as to support the weight of the human body itself to achieve flight.
And Xiang'er is only a martial artist in the realm of strength, although Xiang'er's cultivation qualifications are extremely amazing, but he really can't understand that such a thing happens.
After a while, Xiang'er seemed to be a little tired and fell on her own, and after a long time, she slowly opened her eyes, revealing deep exhaustion in her expression.
"Third brother, I'm so happy, it's really beautiful, how do I feel so tired, I must be too happy." She happily walked up to Mei Han, lifted the corner of her skirt and turned around a few times and smiled. She didn't seem to know anything about what had just happened to her. Then, his body was weak and threw himself into Mei Han's arms, Mei Han was startled, and quickly helped Xiang'er up, and was a little surprised to find that the latter had fallen asleep, so he had to carry Xiang'er on his back and slowly walked towards Mei's mansion step by step.
The last time I carried my sister on my back was three years ago, and this feeling of family affection was really amazing, and he felt warm in his heart. My brother protects my sister, and it feels good to be guarded.
The night is cool and quiet. The streets are no longer bustling and noisy during the day, and they seem cold. Looking at the sparse lights on both sides of the street, Mei Han, who was walking on the street, suddenly felt a little inexplicably lonely in his heart, and unconsciously, the once unrestrained seemed to be broken by something, and he couldn't say this feeling.
On the day Mei Han went home, Xiang'er had already moved her residence back to Mei Mansion, and it was next to Mei Han's small courtyard. So it's very convenient to settle Xiang'er.
As for what happened tonight, Mei Han knew that the stakes were high, and he decided to keep it a secret for his sister.
The next day, early in the morning, the town of Stone Forest was lively again, with the cries of all kinds of buying and selling, and the bustling flow of people on the streets between the high-rise buildings on both sides.
Mei Han, who got up early, walked slowly on the avenue, admiring the noise that he had not experienced for more than three years. Today, he plans to go to the shop to buy some medicines to help martial artists refine their bodies and cut their marrow.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of fast horses galloping from the distance of the street, Mei Han's eyesight was excellent, and he could see very clearly, from the direction of the city gate, there were three people riding their mounts and whipping on the avenue, and pedestrians avoided all the way. Many people who didn't have time to avoid it fell to the ground in a panic, ate dust all over the ground, and after seeing the people clearly, they didn't dare to speak out to resist, so they could only consider themselves unlucky.
The leader of these three people is a handsome young man in a red robe, and the mount under him is a dark cloud leopard, majestic and chic, and behind him are obviously two men dressed as entourages riding two fat horses, following closely from the left and right.
Seeing the chaos on the street under the rampant of the clouded leopard, the red-robed young man laughed, arrogant, and even urged again and again, without slowing down.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them were about to come to the front of Mei Han, and between Mei Han and the three riding beasts, there was a lonely little girl, who was so frightened that she stayed in place and cried when she saw the dark cloud leopard with a hideous face running quickly.
Seeing that the sturdy clouded leopard was about to bump into this girl, the red-robed young man continued to gallop away with a smile on his face.
Looking at such a noisy scene, Mei Han's heart was cold, and he rushed out without the slightest hesitation, just when the iron hooves of the dark cloud leopard were about to crush the girl, his figure appeared in the pupils of the black cloud leopard, and then a fist rapidly enlarged in its sight, and then hit its eyeballs hard.
Rumble!
The clouded leopard's massive body flew out in an instant, slamming heavily into the heads of the two horses behind him, and the three mounts slid backwards at the same time. Mei Han, on the other hand, maintained a punching posture, and in the shocked gaze of everyone, he slowly withdrew his fist, moved his arms, and stood there straight.
"Thank you, knight, for saving your life!" A woman carrying a bamboo basket on the side of the road immediately ran over, hugged the little girl, knelt down and kowtowed to Mei Han, and tears of excitement flew out of her eyes.
"Hmm. Holding up the woman on the ground, Mei Han said softly, "Walk in the future and take your daughter with you." ā
The woman nodded yes again and again, and after thanking her again and again, she left with her daughter in her arms. The pedestrians around them also hurried away. Because there will be a bloody scene here next, and if the excitement is affected, it will be worth the loss.
The three people riding the mount were all strong warriors, and the moment the mount under them lost control, they jumped up and fell to the side. One of the attendants immediately drew his war knife and pointed at Mei Han and shouted:
"A bold fanatic, he dared to block my young master's way, and injured my young master's spirit beast. ā
"It's going to kill your dog today!" another attendant shouted.
Seeing that the dark cloud leopard who had followed him for six or seven years was blown out in one eye by the person in front of him, his face trembled, and he couldn't hide his anger, and shouted: "Kill this little bastard for me!"
"Lin Zhentian, I haven't seen you for three years, do you remember me?" A cold glint flashed in his eyes, Mei Han was full of anger, staring at the red-robed young man and gritting his teeth.
