Chapter 45: The Pride of the Past
It's not quiet in the house.
Zhou Yuanxiong pulled Uncle Kang and kept praising him for his loyalty, and at the same time bragging about how he won the Zhuge family, and talked about how beautiful the future development of the Zhou family was.
Zhou Wen hiccuped, eating chicken legs, and hid in the bedroom to look at the villain book.
Bei Shao Mingyue sat on the edge of the bed, the green silk fluttering, and there was a faint smile on her face.
She took Zhou Yan's hand and didn't let go, but whispered: "Quitting the rivers and lakes, this is your choice, you said a lot that night, I can see that you really want to be quiet... How now... Want to kill?"
Zhou Yan's face was very calm, and he said slowly: "Yes, I really want to be quiet, but someone wants my life." ”
Bei Shao Mingyue was silent for a moment, but laughed.
She smiled faintly: "You see, I just said that our paths are only temporarily different, and maybe the future will slowly become one." ”
Zhou Yan said helplessly: "You look very happy." ”
Bei Shake Mingyue smiled: "At least you don't seem to be willing to eat anymore and wait for death?"
"No, it's still my goal to eat and die. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Yan paused and muttered, "But I'm stuck in the mire now, and I need to complete some things before I can break free." ”
"Stuck in the mire?"
Bei Shake Mingyue frowned and said, "What did you encounter?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a knock on the door, and Zhou Yan just didn't want to answer, so he smiled lightly and made a look.
Bei Shao Mingyue opened the door, and a woman in a mint green dress walked in, smiling reluctantly at everyone.
Zhou Yan's face suddenly became strange.
The discussion between Zhou Yuanxiong and Uncle Kang also stopped instantly.
Guo Ningshuang gave a salute and said softly: "Ningshuang has seen Uncle Zhou, and I have seen Uncle Kang..."
Zhou Yuanxiong looked confused, he didn't know who this person was, and Uncle Kang hurriedly said: "Miss Guo doesn't have to be polite, the young master has been talking about you for a few days." ”
Old dog, can you be reliable in your words? Lao Tzu clearly woke up just now.
Zhou Yan scolded secretly in his heart, and felt extremely embarrassed, damn, Bei Shao Mingyue is also here, what are you Guo Ningshuang doing.
It's really embarrassing now, how to deal with it.
He subconsciously glanced at Bei Shao Mingyue, but found that Bei Shao Mingyue happened to be looking at him, with a smile on his face, as if he was saying, "Look at what you should do"...
"Zhou Gongzi... Grandpa said you were hurt..."
Guo Ningshuang walked to the bedside, and Bei Shao Mingyue had already gone to the balcony to watch the scenery.
"Are you feeling better now? I didn't even bother before. ”
Guo Ningshuang's tone was soft, with a hint of distress in her eyes, and she wanted to pull Zhou Yan's hand, but she was a little embarrassed.
Zhou Yan sighed in his heart, and then said: "Thank you Miss Guo for your concern, Zhou's injury has healed, and staying in bed at this moment is just to recuperate." ”
Guo Ningshuang laughed at this time, nodded and said, "That's good, those dark people are really bad, you are like this, they still don't let you go." ”
"If only Childe had before, they wouldn't have dared to mess with you. ”
But that genius "Zhou Yan" is not me.
Zhou Yan's expression was a little complicated, recalling this Zhou Yan's past, he found that he was indeed ridiculously powerful.
"I'm sorry..."
Seeing Zhou Yan's appearance, Guo Ningshuang hurriedly said: "It reminds you of the past, I shouldn't mention it." ”
Zhou Yan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, I have already seen those past events." ”
"Hmm..."
Guo Ningshuang opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say, she didn't know Zhou Yan very well, just like Zhou Yan didn't know her.
The two have no common language, and the so-called good feelings are all based on misunderstanding.
The atmosphere grew awkward, but luckily there was another knock on the door.
"Brother Zhou Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
A tall man strode in, dressed in a white robe, embroidered with the mark of the sun on his chest, long hair tied high, and sword eyebrows and sideburns.
Very handsome, very upright, very temperamental, and with a deep strength.
Zhou Yan's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly remembered the identity of this person-the chief disciple of Qiyang Palace, Yun Zhan.
As one of the most outstanding geniuses in the Sword Domain, he is almost as famous as Zhou Yan, Bei Shao Mingyue and others, and is the leader of the young generation of Bright Martial Arts.
Zhou Yan had fought with him a few times, although he didn't really distinguish the winner or loser, but he did suppress him, and both of them knew very well that if he continued to fight, he Yunzhan would lose, so the point stopped.
An old acquaintance who is not a friend.
Zhou Yan gave a position in his heart, so he hugged his fists and said, "Brother Yun has also come to Taixue Palace." ”
"Just been here for two days. ”
Yun Zhan smiled indifferently, he was different from Zhou Yan who had remembered.
In the past, Zhou Yan was arrogant and conceited, and he never gave face when he spoke, he was straightforward, but he had hard skills.
And Yun Zhan's skills are also good, but he speaks very well, like a humble gentleman, and has always given people the feeling of a spring breeze.
In the past, Zhou Yan didn't like him very much, and always felt that his image was perfect to hypocrisy.
Yun Zhan looked at Zhou Yan and sighed softly, "How is the injury?"
Zhou Yan's brows furrowed imperceptibly.
He believed that with Yun Zhan's strength, he could see that his injuries had healed the moment he entered the door.
But he still asked.
Why?
Out of concern? Or does it mean something else?
Zhou Yan chuckled and said, "Thank you Brother Yun for your concern, the injury is fine." ”
Yun Zhan nodded, with a look of indignation, and sighed: "The world is impermanent, in just one or two months, Brother Zhou broke into the demon cave alone and shocked the world, and his cultivation was completely lost and the sword was hidden, and the sword domain was shocked again. ”
"The last time we met, you were in high spirits, and now you are in a hospital bed, which is embarrassing. ”
"It's a pity that you and I never have a chance to really decide the winner. ”
Zhou Yan smiled reluctantly, Yun Zhan's words were not difficult to hear, but smart people could hear something after all.
Bei Shake Mingyue happens to be a smart person.
She turned her head and said lightly: "You have already decided the winner, you are defeated, if you feel unconvinced, I, as a wife, can still fight for Zhou Yan." ”
Yun Zhan smiled and said, "Miss Bei Shake misunderstood, Yun Zhan just sighed, and had no other meaning." ”
Bei Shao Mingyue said: "Yes, I'm just casually mentioning the facts." ”
Yun Zhan's face didn't show any embarrassment, he just looked back at Zhou Yan and said, "Brother Zhou came to Taixue Palace, what is he doing?"
Zhou Yan said: "Of course, it is learning. ”
"Hmm..."
Yun Zhan said with a smile: "Abandoning martial arts and following literature may not be another way, although it is starting from scratch, but step by step, it will eventually rise." I believe that Brother Zhou's strength will soon reach the realm of Chaowen Dao. ”
Zhou Yan smiled, looked at his handsome face, and did not speak.
Bei Shao Mingyue walked over, stood in front of Yun Zhan, and said, "Don't take people for fools, don't force me to make a move." ”
Yun Zhan took a few steps back and smiled lightly: "Miss Bei Shake doesn't have to be so angry, right? I'm just here to visit Brother Zhou, what's wrong with saying a few words of encouragement?"
Bei Shao Mingyue said: "He doesn't need the encouragement of his former subordinates in the future. ”
"At the end of the point, how can you say that you will be defeated?"
Yun Zhan said slowly: "It's a pity that he can't prove that he can defeat me, even if the girl from the North Shake stands up for him, he can't prove anything." ”
Zhou Yan said: "I haven't thought about proving anything, you can go." ”
"Zhou Yan!"
There was a shout, and the door was suddenly pushed open again.
This time it was Sima Yunlei, the second disciple of the Sword Palace.
He ran in in a hurry, and when he saw Zhou Yan, he said loudly: "What the hell are you doing! Any dark ghost almost killed you, you won't be such a waste, right?"
"You're dead, six months later, who will fight me at the Sword Domain Martial Arts Conference?"
"Don't forget our battle contract!"
Zhou Yuanxiong exclaimed: "Sima Yunlei, what are you doing here!"
"Damn, what am I going to do, do you still need an old man to take care of it? Guo Yu didn't speak, you are excited!"
Sima Yunlei rolled his eyes, ignored no one, and stared at Zhou Yan and said, "Is it okay to live well?" In six months, I will personally beat you to the point that you can't take care of yourself, let Bei Shao Mingyue, a stupid woman, take a good look at what a strong person is. ”
Bei Shao Mingyue covered her forehead, not wanting to look at Sima Yunlei.
But Zhou Yan said softly: "What are you doing in Taixue Palace?"
"Huh?"
Sima Yunlei glared and said, "It's your business! Damn, I'm here to tell you, don't die too early, I'll take your life." ”
After he finished speaking, he simply left.
Guo Ningshuang looked at all this, looked at Zhou Yan again, and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
She thought, maybe Zhou Gongzi was in a very uncomfortable mood, if he was the same as before, why should he be so angry.
But he abolished his martial arts because he cut off the dark pollution, why did everyone not only not admire, but mocked openly and secretly?
Bei Shao Mingyue didn't speak, just looked at Zhou Yan and sighed slightly.
Yun Zhan said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhou, the Sword Domain Martial Arts Competition is the top event for the young generation, and it is also a great opportunity to be famous all over the world, once in ten years. ”
"In your current state, you must not participate, it is easy to get killed. ”
"Originally, I wanted to really fight you in the ring, but now it seems that I can't do it. ”
"Only the champion of the Sword Domain Martial Arts Competition is the real number one young genius in the Sword Domain. ”
Speaking of this, Yun Zhan said with a smile: "At that time, it was wiser for Brother Zhou to study in Taixue Palace, after all, it was safer here. ”
Bei Shaking Mingyue took a deep breath and said, "Yun Zhan, within ten breaths, disappear in front of my eyes." ”
"I'm concerned about Brother Zhou. ”
Yun Zhan smiled brightly, did not entangle, turned his head and left.
After Zhou Yuanxiong made sure that Yun Zhan was gone, he said coldly: "I have seen the one surnamed Yun, who came to my house last year and treated me with respect, and when he saw me today, he didn't even say hello, in the end, it didn't mean that my Yan'er was not as good as before." ”
Uncle Kang also said loudly: "That is, he used to be very honest. ”
Guo Ningshuang's heart tightened when she heard this, she grabbed Zhou Yan's hand and said in a low voice: "You... Don't be mad at those people... It's not worth it..."
Zhou Yan laughed out loud and said, "No, what are you excited about?"
"What they said is right, I really shouldn't have competed, I really didn't want to fight, it's all facts, what's there to be angry about. ”
"No matter how powerful it was before, it was all in the past, and now isn't there a bright moon... She'll stand up for me. ”
"Okay, let's go, I'm injured, what are you doing here, it's a school after all. ”
After speaking, Zhou Yan closed his eyes.
His heart trembled slightly, as if he was being held by something, and his breathing was a little unsmooth.
The pride of the past belongs to that "Zhou Yan" and has nothing to do with me.
He comforted himself that the pride of the past...
Not your own...
