Single Character Chapter 133 Chu Xinying (Upper Middle)
Paired with music, the effect is even better!
Music: A labyrinth with no exit
"Haier ......"
This seems to be the first time Chu Xinying has heard her mother's name, and it is also the first time she has heard her father tell a story about her mother.
Many years ago
The era of young Chu Yun
Starfall Divine Mansion
Ancestral Hall
"Yes, father. Chu Yun nodded at his father and saluted.
Today's worship has ended, and according to the rules of the Starfall Divine Mansion, the eldest son should clean the ancestral worship hall within two hours after worshipping the ancestors, in order to obtain the protection of the ancestors for the entire Chu clan.
As the eldest son of the Starfall Divine Mansion, Chu Yun had long been accustomed to this kind of cleaning. He is twenty-two years old this year, and since he was ten years old, he has been cleaning this ancestral hall alone, once a year, and now he has cleaned it eleven times. This is nothing to him, and he doesn't feel that this is a burden, but is regarded by him as a relaxation of cultivation.
It's just that this time is different from the previous ones. Usually, after worshipping his ancestors, his father would talk to him alone for an hour. But some time ago, Chu Yun had just been officially confirmed as the heir of the Lord of the Starfall Divine Mansion. His father had nothing to push him on or remind him of. He only said, "In the days to come, you should remind yourself." He asked him to clean the ancestral hall and turned to leave.
Therefore, today Chu Yun is an hour earlier than in previous years. It's because of this hour that everything is different.
Ancestral Hall
Chu Yun, as in previous years, picked up the broom that had been leaning against the wall for a year but had not been contaminated with the slightest dust, and was dedicated to cleaning the ancestral worship hall.
Originally, I thought that after cleaning the ancestral worship hall, I would have to cultivate for a while. But as soon as he walked into the ancestral worship hall, he suddenly found that there was a sudden sound in the gap under the ancestral tablet in the ancestral worship hall that was covered by yellow cloth.
Chu Yun was not vigilant.
And such unvigilance is not because Chu Yun is not vigilant enough. It's because there are two reasons why he doesn't need to be vigilant.
The first point is that this is the territory of the Starfall Divine Mansion of the Gods and Demons Continent, and the two countries of the Yatian Shenluo are not in a state of hostility at this time. So let's not talk about the current situation, and there are no enemies and threats in the Starfall Divine Mansion. Even if there is, this is the ancestral worship hall of the Starfall Divine Mansion, and no enemy can be so strong that he can enter the Starfalling Divine Mansion silently, and even rush under the ancestral tablet in the ancestral worship hall without being discovered. There won't be anyone who doesn't have long eyes like that.
The second point is that Starfall Divine Mansion has always been a great love for animals. Therefore, many stray cats and dogs have been adopted in the Starfall Divine Mansion. And the Starfall Divine Mansion is indeed big enough. The Starfall Divine Mansion has always looked down on these stray cats and dogs as pitiful, so he ordered the people in the mansion to take them back to the Starfalling Divine Mansion to raise them around. These stray cats and dogs are scattered throughout the Starfall Divine Mansion, existing in an almost wild state. Therefore, there are many cases where cats and dogs break into the ancestral worship hall to eat tribute. In order to prevent these cats and dogs from breaking into the ancestral worship hall, the Starfall Divine Mansion also specially sent people to guard here, not for anything else, just to prevent these ignorant little guys.
Because of the above two points, Chu Yuncai did not have any vigilance. Instead, it was immediately concluded that it was some kittens and dogs who sneaked out while the guards were unprepared. Strange to say, these kittens and puppies don't know where they come from, and they can always sneak in without the guards.
Chu Yun walked towards the gap under the ancestral tablet step by step, preparing to capture these "criminals" who stole the tribute. ”
When I got closer, I looked closely, and sure enough, there were some chicken bones scattered around the yellow cloth. This seems to prove that Chu Yun's idea is correct. It's just that those chicken bones always make Chu Yun feel that something is wrong.
Although Chu Yun is usually stable enough in the eyes of his parents and outsiders, he is quite decent in what he says and does. But after all, he is still a young man, and the breath of youth is still there when he is alone.
At this time, he walked into the gap covered by the yellow cloth and slowly squatted down. Prepare to scare the kittens and puppies inside. Suddenly lifted the yellow cloth.
"Ahh As an eighth-order pact priest, he was still so frightened that he sat directly on the ground.
"Ahh
Another voice rang out at the same time in the gap.
Chu Yun lifted the yellow cloth and saw that it was not a kitten or a puppy. It's a woman in white, holding a roast chicken and eating it.
Although Chu Yun was startled when he saw this scene, he already understood why he felt that something was wrong when he saw those chicken bones just now. Kittens and puppies don't seem to let go of chicken bones.
The woman in white came out of the gap with fried chicken in her arms. looked at Chu Yun with a dissatisfied expression.
Chu Yun was startled and got up from the ground, a long sword had already been sacrificed and held in his hand, and landed on the neck of the woman in white.
"Who are you!" both shouted at the same time.
Only then did Chu Yun see the woman's appearance clearly. It was a girl of the same age as herself, wearing a white dress, long black hair that reached to the waist, and a lot of cuteness between her eyebrows and eyes.
Hearing that the woman in front of him actually asked with him, Chu Yun smiled and said, "You are in my house." Who am I?"
"Who said this is your home!" The woman didn't seem to be afraid of the sword that Chu Yun had put on her neck, chewed the chicken in her mouth that had not yet been swallowed, and said, "This is my home!"
Chu Yun was interested when he heard this, and snorted lightly: "You don't even know me, so you dare to say that this is your home?"
"What are you. Why do you have to know you......" After the woman finished speaking, she hugged the roast chicken in her hand and turned her head to leave. He didn't take the sword around his neck seriously.
Chu Yun was at a loss by the woman's action, and her face turned red. The woman's actions were as if the knife he was holding around the woman's neck was not a sharp blade, but some kind of toy, which people did not pay attention to.
In the next second, Chu Yun had already flashed in front of the woman again, and the long sword fell on the woman's neck again.
"Put the chicken down. ”
"I haven't finished eating yet. The woman was holding the roast chicken and nibbling on it, as if she didn't understand what Chu Yun meant.
Chu Yun saw that the woman still didn't take him seriously at all, and the long sword in his hand moved lightly, directly picking up the chicken in the woman's hand and flying out. The half-gnawed roast chicken fell to the ground and rolled around, already covered with dust.
"What are you doing! It's annoying!" The woman became angry when she saw that the roast chicken was directly picked up by Chu Yun and fell to the ground.
"What am I doing?" Chu Yun said angrily: "You broke into the ancestor worship hall of my Starfall Divine Mansion without permission, and you also stole the ancestral tribute, why are you asking me to do it?"
The woman said angrily: "How can I steal the ancestral tribute!"
"Where did you get that chicken?" Chu Yun asked.
Feminine bulging. looked at the various foods placed on the ancestral sacrifice table in the distance, and then stretched out his hand and pointed to himself: "That." ”
"Since you took it there, and you still said that you didn't steal the ancestors' tribute?" who are you?" Chu Yun asked.
The woman was a little embarrassed, and looked at Chu Yun with a pair of lilac eyes: "Who is the ancestor? What is a tribute." ”
"You ......" Chu Yun saw that the woman did not answer the question, but pretended to be stupid here. is even more angry, but after all, there is a cute girl in front of him, and he is really ruthless.
"Oh, I really don't know who the ancestor is. Your chicken is there, and it's ...... I didn't have my name written on it. The woman looked at the harmlessness of humans and animals, and seemed to really don't know the meaning of Chu Yun's words.
Chu Yun didn't bother to explain to her, and looked at the ancestor's tablet: "That's the ancestor." ”
"Ahh You said they!" The woman laughed, "Are you stupid?" They are all dead. It's all dead. Where are you going to eat these delicious foods? Isn't that a waste?"
"Bold!" Chu Yun interrupted, "Who allowed you to be disrespectful to your ancestors!"
"What kind of respect? What am I not right? They are dead people! There are so many delicious foods, you don't give them what you can eat, but you show them to the dead. The woman retorted.
Chu Yun has been deeply educated by such a large sect as the Starfall Divine Mansion since he was a child, and he has always maintained absolute reverence for his ancestors. At this moment, listening to the ancestor whom the woman in white revered herself, she naturally couldn't bear it when she opened her mouth and closed her mouth to say "dead man". The long sword in his hand was raised high and was already slashing towards the woman.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the sword fell, it was directly pinched by the woman's two fingers. No matter how hard Chu Yun exerted his strength, the sword seemed to be stuck to the woman's hand, and he couldn't move anything.
Because it is in the ancestral worship hall, and in front of many ancestors. Chu Yun can't use markers that are too large in scope or too destructive. He had to hold the sword in both hands and pull the weapon out of the woman's fingers.
The woman didn't seem to have the intention of fighting Chu Yun to the end, and when she saw that she was about to pull out the sword with both hands, she no longer fought with him.
Seeing Chu Yun killing him with a sword again, she wiped her hands with her clothes, and the white dress was covered with oil by her. The woman's left hand was lightly grasped, and a lilac long sword suddenly appeared in her hand.
The blade was already out of its sheath and collided with Chu Yun's weapon.
The two fought and then retreated.
Chu Yun was a little puzzled. The moment he saw the woman just now, he had already tried his best to sense the power of the blood contract on the woman's body. But after some perceiving, the answer he got was that the power of the blood contract on the woman in white was zero, that is, the woman in front of him was not a contract priest. But now the woman suddenly sacrificed a long sword in her hand, and seemed to lightly block the attack of her eighth-order contract priest. Apparently a priest of the covenant. But why can't I feel the power of her blood pact at all?
I was surprised in my heart, but my face was very calm.
Chu Yun snorted coldly: "It seems that it also covers up the power of the blood contract." Sure enough, there is no use. ”
"I ...... I don't have a use!" the woman explained, shaking her head vigorously: "No, no, it's not that I don't have a use, it's that I don't have any other use!
"Hmph. Chu Yun looked disdainful: "You treat me as a child, how can the Covenant Priest not need the power of the Blood Contract?"
Chu Yun said that, and rushed over again with his sword.
But Chu Yun, who had reached the eighth order or above after a few rounds, began to gradually find that with his own strength, even if he had reached the level of fatality, he was obviously not enough to defeat the woman in white in front of him. On the contrary, this woman, to put it mildly, obviously did not mean to work hard, but seemed to be playing with him.
This move made Chu Yun's self-esteem nowhere to put it.
In the last blow, Chu Yun knew that he was invincible, gritted his teeth and swung his sword and rushed over again.
The woman had already stopped looking at him and shouted, "I really just want to steal a chicken to eat......!
The woman shouted, and Chu Yun had already swung her sword and slashed.
"I'm not human!"
