Chapter 80: Evil is Born
Xiao Cong poured two wine cups, and served one cup to Steward Qin, who was sitting on his lap with his hands on his thighs, and said:
"Young master, the slave never touches wine, I hope the young master will forgive me. β
Xiao Cong raised his head slightly, he gently put down the wine jug, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that he really hadn't seen Steward Qin drink.
"Uncle Qin doesn't drink, so Xiao Cong drinks himself. β
As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the wine from his glass.
Closing his eyes, he felt the spicy and hot flowing through his throat, the mellow fragrance was permeated, and the strong pungency stimulated him, so that he had to stick his tongue out, and the fragrance poured into his nostrils, as if he felt a spasm and trance of his nerves, is this the legendary feeling of feathering and ascending immortals.
It was his first time drinking, and he never thought that drinking alcohol would be such a wonderful feeling,
"That's what it tastes like. β
Xiao Cong's eyes were clear and shining, faintly shining, and he pursed his lips, showing a look of unfinished business.
"Fourth Young Master, this is the first time you've been drinking?"
Steward Qin asked, his face was unwavering, and his tone was not in a hurry.
Xiao Cong replied casually while thinking to himself:
"Uh-huh. β
"May I ask why the fourth young master is drinking?"
Steward Qin spoke again, still looking like a statue in the candlelight, and vaguely only his mouth seemed to move.
Xiao Cong put down the wine jug, was slightly stunned, like a cute and confused child, and replied for a while:
"I don't know, I just want to drink anyway. β
Before Xiao Cong could pick up the wine jug again, Steward Qin asked again:
"Doesn't the young master want to know why?"
"Whatever, there is wine today and drunkenness today, isn't this the consistent style of those merry gentlemen? β
Hearing Xiao Cong's answer, Steward Qin's expression in the candlelight changed slightly, and a trace of unhappiness appeared again, which was not normal at all for Steward Qin, who had always treated people with no waves, and this unpleasant color had appeared twice on Steward Qin's face today, but Xiao Cong, who had always been good at observing words and feelings, did not notice it.
Steward Qin suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on Xiao Cong's hand holding the wine jug, his expression was slightly complicated, he was like an old man, meaningful, intriguing,
"Young master, listen to me, you can't drink anymore. β
Xiao Cong raised his head, he couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, he forcibly suppressed the sudden impulse in his heart, and looked at Steward Qin sitting opposite him suspiciously,
"Uncle Qin, I've only had a few drinks. β
Steward Qin shook his head and said:
"Young master, as a minion, I am not qualified to stop you like this, but since the master of this line has entrusted you to me, I have to offend you once. β
Steward Qin withdrew his hand and continued:
"Young Master, don't you think you're a little abnormal today?"
Xiao Cong slowly put down the wine jug, scratched the back of his head with his hand, and said with a smile:
"Steward Qin, are you too tired these two days. β
Steward Qin ignored Xiao Cong's hippie smile, his face was solemn,
"The young master has always been pure-hearted, but tonight he suddenly drank wine? Isn't there something annoying about it, you might as well talk to the slave, and the slave can also come up with ideas for the young master. β
Xiao Cong felt inexplicable for a while, tilted his head and looked at Steward Qin in surprise, and replied:
"No, I don't. β
"Then the young master has seen any special people in the past few days?" Qin Guan clenched his bite and asked.
"No, I don't. β
"Then why does the young master have to be abnormal, don't you think you are a little impetuous?"
"Uncle Qin, you ......"
Steward Qin straightened up and said:
"Just now, when I stopped the young master from pouring wine, I cut the pulse for the young master by the way, and found that the young master's pulse was disordered and abnormal, and the offense of the slave was really a last resort, and I hope the young master will forgive me. β
As he spoke, Steward Qin got up and bowed to Xiao Cong
Xiao Cong forcibly suppressed the nameless fire in his heart that was getting stronger and stronger, and said lightly:
"Uncle Qin has a heart, let's sit down quickly. β
"Won't the young master check it?"
"When people walk in the red dust, it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs, so I will pay more attention in the future. β
"Young master, let's check it out, it's good to introspect from time to time. β
Hearing this, Xiao Cong Huo Ran raised his head, his eyes widened, and his stunned eyes looked at Steward Qin's unfazed face motionlessly, his lips squirmed slightly,
"It's good to be introspective all the time. β
This is what Tiandao Weng often says.
Seeing this, Steward Qin hurriedly said with concern:
"Young Master, what's wrong with you?"
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, Xiao Cong came back to his senses, pursed his lips and swallowed his saliva, dodging:
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. β
Comparatively, this is really not a trivial matter, the cultivation of the body qi has always been the top priority for the cultivation of monks, and the integrity of the body qi is the foundation of cultivating every method, if even the body qi is not cultivated well, it will be like termites drilled into the foundation, no matter how high and good the superstructure is cultivated, it will eventually collapse.
So, he slowly closed his eyes, his consciousness sank into the sea of thoughts, it seemed that even the soul had entered a state of restraint, time stopped at this moment, everything turned into nothingness, itself is eternal, and it seems that the body has been stripped away in this noisy world, this is a state of self-only, and a state of selflessness, at this moment everything in the body is in front of him, the silver-white bones, the delicate and complex veins, the pure sea of thoughts, and even the aura that wanders around the body, these have become so real, without concealment.
He examined his body carefully, watching the pulsing true qi flow of all kinds, although the appearance was different from the usual appearance was a little disordered, but when he felt it carefully, he found that his pulse was beating in a special rhythm, he was slightly startled, and a sense of uneasiness gradually came to his heart.
Then he carefully examined the aura that was wandering around his body, the aura was still running, like a thin line in the meridians moving at a uniform speed, he imprisoned his body, the aura stopped flowing in an instant, at this time it was an extraordinary period, he could not tolerate the slightest distraction, he opened the martial arts spirit pupil that had not yet been cultivated, and vigorously observed every inch of aura, and found that there was a trace of heavy black mixed in the aura that was swimming around his body, although the black was not very obvious, but it made the uneasiness in his heart a little stronger, and then he checked the flesh and bones, and found that there were subtle black bone spurs at the joints of his bones, and a dusty black substance also appeared in the bloodοΌ
After a full stick of incense, Xiao Cong regained his senses, opened his eyes, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Qin, Xiao Cong is afraid that something really happened this time, but I found out in time, there is no big problem, Xiao Cong has thanked Uncle Qin here. β
Xiao Cong got up and bowed to Steward Qin, Steward Qin was flattered,
"What is the fourth young master, this is the responsibility of the slave. β
As he spoke, he hurriedly got up and picked up Xiao Cong, who was bending over.
The two sat opposite each other, and after an unhappy episode, they brought the two closer together, and an atmosphere like a friend spread in the bamboo hut.
Steward Qin casually took a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth, and after chewing it, he gently put down the bamboo chopsticks, and then asked softly:
"I don't know if the young master has seen any special people in the past few days. β
Xiao Cong swallowed the contents of his mouth hard, then put down the bamboo chopsticks, and replied:
"Special people can be said to have or not, these days they have accompanied the star boss and they have walked around the martial arts arena, this holy city is mixed, I'm afraid I can't tell. β
Steward Qin bowed slightly,
"I have heard that some sects in the Xuanzhen Realm are good at using Gu, and their techniques are secret and weird, and the recipient is completely unaware of it, but after a long time, the recipient will be completely controlled by the Gu caster, and the young master is not ......."
Xiao Cong waved his hand lightly, interrupting Steward Qin's words:
"Alas, what should come is always coming, I know where I went wrong, Uncle Qin just put my heart in my stomach, I will try my best to control myself, but in terms of supervision, Uncle Qin has to worry a lot. β
Steward Qin bowed his head slightly and said:
"Well, since the young master is so confident, then the slave will not say more, and the slave will try his best to do what the young master explains. β
The two chatted while eating, from the group of heroes to the entire Xuanzhen world, Xiao Cong asked questions like a naΓ―ve child, Steward Qin knew everything and said everything, and there was suddenly a sense of knowing each other and hating each other, once people's hearts were comfortable, their appetites would also open, and a few small dishes on the sandalwood table were eaten by the two of them over time, and the wine jug that Xiao Cong had been holding on to before had already been invited under the table by him, because the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this thing was too much of an eyesore on the table.
It wasn't until midnight that Steward Qin slowly left the bamboo hut with only empty plates left, and a light drifted with the sound of gentle footsteps, drifting farther and farther.
