Chapter 253: People are tired when summer is strong
Tang Xiaotang grew old along the lake embankment to the wooden stack.
After Ning Que was exposed by Sang Sang, although she consciously stood up as a wolf with Chen Pipi, she still inevitably became angry and drove her to accompany Tang Xiaotang for the reason of worry.
There were only three people left under the willow shade of the embankment.
Chen Pipi looked at Tang Xiaotang, who was gradually moving away, and shouted helplessly: "Don't be angry because of this matter, right?"
Tang Xiaotang didn't turn around, and his crisp and bright voice echoed on the lake.
"I'm not angry about this, it's that you are about to run away when you look at her, I am not afraid of her, you are already a guy who knows your fate, and it is really embarrassing to be so afraid of her. β
The little girl who grew up fighting the snowfield giant wolf and the Atami fierce fish, from the shoes on her feet to the black drags swaying behind her hips, is full of optimistic fighting spirit in every detail, and it is difficult for her to understand where Chen Pipi's fear comes from.
Chen Pipi looked down at his exposed toes, but he could only see his bulging belly, and couldn't help but feel sad, and after being silent for a long time, he whispered: "Since I was a child, my realm has always been higher than her, but if I really fight, I will never be able to beat her." β
Ning Que glanced at him and asked, "You don't know she's here with me?"
Chen Pipi glanced at the leaf red fish under the shade of the willows, and said angrily: "If you know how I will come." β
Ning Que was puzzled and asked, "Senior Brother didn't sue you?"
Chen Youpi shook his head.
Ning Que sighed and said, "It's really a bad guy." β
Ye Hongyu came from under the willow tree.
Chen Pipi turned and walked towards the willow tree.
The two passed by, and the corners of Ye Hongyu's lips curled slightly...... Asked, "Don't reminisce?"
Chen Pipi didn't look back, waved his hand and said, "I'll talk about it later, I'll talk about it later." β
Ning Que said with emotion: "It seems that he is really afraid of you, and he doesn't even dare to tell this kind of shameless pun that he likes in the future." β
Ye Hongyu didn't bother to pay attention to this...... Shameless guy.
What she was about to say had nothing to do with Chen Pipi, let alone the interest of Jiang Yinbu's children, and said with a slightly cold gaze: "The academy will actually take in the remnants of the Demon Sect." β
Ning Que had long thought of her, who was like an idiot in cultivation, how she would react when she saw Tang Xiaotang, a girl from the Demon Sect, and asked with a smile, "What is your opinion?"
This rhetorical question seems a bit arrogant
Ning Que was in front of the Dao idiot...... He didn't have any qualifications for arrogance, but in the past half a year, he knew the history of Uncle Xiao's demonization...... I personally experienced the ignorance of the teachers and brothers for their own demons, and probably understood the attitude of the academy, and the academy definitely has the qualifications to be arrogant.
Ye Hongyu said with an indifferent expression: "Since it involves the academy, whether I have an opinion or not, it is an irrelevant matter at all...... But have you ever thought about how about this thing getting out?"
Ning Que said: "Even if it spreads, what if it is passed on? As long as the academy does not admit it, who can have evidence? Could it be that the Xiling Temple still dares to send people into the mountains behind the academy to search for people?"
"Countless devout Haotian believers in the world don't need evidence, just a word from the temple. β
Ye Hongyu said: "Xiling Temple may not be in the eyes of the master, but the discussion and anger of countless pious believers is not easy for the master to deal with...... You can't kill the whole world. β
"If the temple really makes the world believe that the academy is taking in the remnants of the Demon Sect, then the war you told me yesterday will bring about the arrival of Tao, and this is definitely not what the temple wants to see. β
Ning Que looked at her beautiful eyes, suddenly understood something, and said, "Since the teacher and senior brother asked Chen Pipi to bring Tang Xiaotang over...... They didn't want to hide it from you, they just wanted you to know about it, and then they wanted you to act like they didn't know anything. β
"To know is to know...... Adding a word no in front of it does not mean that it can really be regarded as not knowing.
"Since you are loyal to the Haotian Dao Sect...... Then you should know that if you pretend not to know now, it is the best choice for both the Haotian Dao Sect and the Academy. β
Ye Hongyu looked down at the bluestone cracks on the lake embankment and the cyan plaster in the cracks, and said after thinking silently for a long time: "What you said makes sense. β
Then she raised her head, looked at Ning Que quietly and said, "Then what's the matter with her and Fat Chen?"
Ning Que looked at the little girl of the Demon Sect in the boat in the middle of the lake, and looked at the fat man who was chasing and shouting along the lake embankment, telling boring jokes, his heart softened, and said, "Please don't know about this matter." β
Ye Hongyu stood beside him, looking at the interesting scene, there was no smile in his eyes, his face was very solemn, and he looked colder and colder.
"If you know Fat Chen's background, then you should be able to think of ...... Once the Daomen knew about this, the world didn't know how many people would die. β
The Yanming Lake Blade did not break out into a big melee of the new generation of powerhouses, and Chen Pipi and Tang Xiaotang returned to the academy in the evening without meeting Ye Hongyu again.
After dinner, Ye Hongyu thanked Sang Sang very politely, and expressed his praise very sincerely, and then returned to his guest room with the sun-dried cyan robe.
"It seems that she has not had a good time in the Xiling Temple for half a year. β
Ning Que looked at the back that disappeared into the corridor and said.
Sang Sang put away the bowl and asked casually, "How do you see it?"
Ning Que looked at the juicy dishes on the table and said, "She is so happy to eat such an unpalatable dish, and she thanked you repeatedly." β
Sang Sang was a little uneasy and said, "I said that I should still be allowed to cook it, and now I think that I made these dishes, and I must think that my cooking skills are terrible." β
Ning Que said: "You are my maid, so you can only serve me alone, why should you serve those outsiders?" Besides, you are the successor of the Bright God Throne, and your status in the Xiling Temple is higher than her, and she should serve you if you want to serve." β
Sang Sang didn't say anything, made him enough tea, and went to wash the dishes.
Ning Que sat by the window by the flower stand, holding the teapot and looking at the red clouds in the sky, his brows gradually frowned.
He was thinking about something.
Why did the people in the mountains behind the academy let Ye Hongyu know about Tang Xiaotang's existence? Could it be that it was really an arrogant announcement? Or did it mean that Xiling was notified in advance to show respect?
Thinking about it, thinking that the tea in his hand was getting cooler, Ning Que still couldn't figure it out, until finally, he suddenly figured out something...... The people in the back mountains, whether they are teachers or senior brothers and second brothers, are basically guys who don't eat fireworks in the world, and they don't have the potential to become big conspirators...... The reason why Chen Pipi took Tang Xiaotang to the lakeside for a walk was probably just to simply figure out the guΓ² leaf red fish and tell SΓΉ Chen Pipi's family.
In the following days, there was a quiet lake on the shore of Yanming Lake, and two rains fell, and the summer change was cut in half.
Ye Hongyu kept herself in her room all day long, except when she was eating, she basically couldn't see anyone, and she didn't know what she was doing in that dark guest room.
When she sat on the edge of the table and picked up the rice bowl, she became silent, and Ning Que noticed that her eyebrows and eyes were becoming more and more haggard, and her face was becoming more and more pale, and she couldn't help but be secretly vigilant.
Wenyuan Pavilion University scholar Zeng Jing and his wife came to be a guest, after visiting the lakeside house, the bachelor and his wife were very satisfied with Ning Que's handwriting, and found that there was not even a maid in the house, and they were even more happy, thinking that their daughter was very favored and should be very happy in the future.
Before leaving, Mrs. Zeng Jing hugged Sang Sang and praised Ning Que for a long time...... "Ding asked her to go back to the bachelor's mansion more often, and the next day she sent more than a dozen housekeepers over."
Looking at the maidservants in the courtyard with ordinary faces and wooden expressions, Ning Que couldn't guess what Mrs. Bachelor was thinking, and couldn't help but be a little amused, thinking that if it weren't for Ye Hongyu not attending the dinner, let Mrs. Zeng see such a beautiful and moving girl living here, it wouldn't be the situation now.
The house of Huji is very large, even if there are more than a dozen housekeepers and maids, they are still not too crowded, and they don't even feel that there are so many more people, and Sangsang is not used to being served, so most of the housekeepers and maids are active in the remote places of the house, and the area around the flower hall study is still clean.
The days are flowing slowly, the more prosperous the summer, the lake breeze is getting drier, the cicadas are noisiering, and there are still three people eating and two people living in the courtyard by the lake.
Ye Hongyu still looks like a ...... Ghostly, stay in a quiet room all day long.
One day, Ning Que came back from the academy, took a cold shower, and asked Sang Sang, who was wiping his body, to know that Ye Hongyu hadn't even eaten dinner today, and couldn't help but look different.
Ning Que has always admired and even aweed this young girl idiot, in his opinion, when the whole world is ruined, probably only people like himself and Dao idiot can live, and he doesn't think that there is any friendship between himself and Dao idiot, so he doesn't care about his mother's life or death at all.
But he couldn't watch her just shut herself up like an idiot.
Because that would be a shame.
The cicadas chirp in bursts, one after another, and the guest rooms on the shore of the Yanming Lake are adjacent to the trestle bridge, and you can faintly hear the sound of the lake slapping on the shore and swallowing the pillars not far away
Ning Que walked along the stone path into the secluded courtyard and knocked on the door gently.
There were some voices in the room, as if tidying up.
The door opened, and he was greeted by a face that was still beautiful but extraordinarily pale.
The sky full of stars sprinkled silver glares into the courtyard, and the girl looked more and more haggard.
Ning Que was taken aback and asked, "Are you sick?"
"You're sick. β
Ye Hongyu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "What's the matter with me?" β
Ning Que ignored her, walked directly into the room, looked around, and found no trace of what Demon Sect secret method she was practicing, such as meals**, and then he noticed that the bed was still as smooth as new, as if no one had slept at all these days, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"You haven't slept all these days?"
"Meditation is enough to replenish energy, sleep and delay time. β
"Meditation is meditation, sleep is sleep, there is no one in this world who understands this matter better than me, what do you want to do? What are you anxious to do?"
Ye Hongyu's voice was a little weak, and he said: "I said, it will take some time for me to leave Xiling and come to Chang'an City, and time is very important to me now." β
Ning Que turned to look into her eyes and said seriously: "Although I don't care about your life or death, I also know that there must be some big people in Xiling Temple who want you to die, but you are a Taoist idiot after all, if you let you die in my house like this, there will definitely be big trouble, I don't want to cause trouble." β
