Chapter 8: The Three-Year Covenant

Early this morning, Long Yeyu came to the hall and saluted Master Qin and Mrs. Qin and said, "Master Qin! Mrs. Qin! I have been disturbing for a few days, and I am here today!" Old Man Qin looked at Long Yeyu and said, "Why are you leaving?" Long Yeyu said: "There is still a master in the body, I dare not delay!" The two of them glanced at each other, and Master Qin looked at Long Yeyu and said, "There is one more thing that Qin wants to ask Long Shaoxia?" Long Yeyu said: "I don't know what Master Qin has to order?" Master Qin smiled: " I don't know what Long Shaoxia's image of the little girl is?" Long Yeyu remembered the scene of getting along with Qin Xiyan in the past few days, and couldn't help but say: "Miss Qin! She is gentle and considerate, knowledgeable, and a rare woman!"

Mrs. Qin then said: "Which Long Shaoxia thinks of the little girl's appearance?" Long Yeyu smiled and said: "The beauty of Miss Qin can no longer be described by the shy flowers and the sinking fish and geese in the closed moon!" Master Qin looked at his daughter who had always been behind the screen and said, "If Qin marries his daughter to you, what do you think?"

Qin Xiyan, who was hiding behind the screen, was extremely shy when he heard what his father said, but he was eager to hear Long Yeyu's answer, and accidentally touched the screen. Long Yeyu also felt that someone on the screen must be Qin Xiyan, and wanted to refuse politely, but thinking of taking care of himself in the past few days, he couldn't bear to hurt him, so he shirked and said: "It's just a reckless Miss Qin, and I don't know when I will be able to come back!

Master Qin looked at his daughter behind the screen again, and when he saw his daughter's slightly disappointed expression, he immediately smiled and said, "This is not a big deal! Qin wants to ask do you like the old man's daughter?" Long Yeyu said sincerely: "Miss Qin is as beautiful as a fairy and gentle and considerate, how can she not like it?" Old Master Qin looked at his daughter's shy and joyful expression, and said: "That's good! The age of the little girl is still young, Qin Mou gave you three years, how about you marry the little girl after three years?"

Long Yeyu thought to himself: "That's fine! Maybe after three years, Xiyan will forget me!" Then he saluted the Qin couple and said, "Okay! After three years, before making a decision, if Miss Qin has another crush within three years, she is willing to quit." The Qin couple glanced at each other, and Master Qin said, "Okay! Just according to what you say!" Mrs. Qin smiled and said, "Why don't you go and say goodbye to Xiyan!" Long Yeyu clasped his fists and said to Mrs. Qin: "Thank you, Mrs. Qin!" After speaking, he walked towards the inner courtyard.

Qin Xiyan heard her mother's words and hurriedly ran towards her room. Long Yeyu deliberately avoided Qin Xiyan and waited until Qin Xiyan entered the house before walking over. Long Yeyu knocked on the door and said, "Xiyan, are you there?" Qin Xiyan said slightly nervously: "It's Brother Long, come in!" Long Yeyu heard the door open and went in and looked at Qin Xiyan and smiled: "Xiyan! Brother Long is here for this trip!" Although Qin Xiyan knew it just now, he couldn't help but say with some sadness: "Brother Long, do you really want to leave?" Long Yeyu looked at Qin Xiyan's sad expression and said with a sigh: "Xiyan! Brother Long has a teacher's life and has to leave." Qin Xiyan didn't know the courage to throw herself into Long Yeyu's arms and cried: "Brother Long must come back!

Long Yeyu listened to Qin Xiyan's words, and his heart was moved, and he couldn't help but gently hug Qin Xiyan and said, "Brother Long will definitely come back!" After speaking, the two of them didn't speak, but hugged each other tightly. After a long time, Long Yeyu took out the dagger he got in the cave that day from the "Qiankun Bag" and said: "Xiyan! Qin Xiyan took it silently, then took out the handkerchief he embroidered and handed it to Long Yeyu, and said shyly: "Brother Long! This is the handkerchief embroidered by Xiyan and given to Brother Long, just like Xiyan has always been by Brother Long's side!"

Long Yeyu was moved again after hearing this, Long Yeyu looked at Qin Xiyan's shy appearance, and couldn't help hugging Qin Xiyan and kissing him fiercely. Qin Xiyan was kissed by Long Yeyu's big mouth, his brain was blank, and he suddenly felt Long Yeyu's hot hand caressing his body and wanted to take off his clothes, Qin Xiyan shouted ashamedly: "Brother Long, don't ......" Long Yeyu woke up violently and looked at Qin Xiyan, who was disheveled, and hurriedly said apologetically: "Xiyan! I ......" Qin Xiyan shyly blocked Long Yeyu's mouth with his hand and said: "Brother Long doesn't have to blame himself! Xiyan's heart and body are Brother Long, but ...... Xiyan is not ready yet!" he lowered his head in shame.

Long Yeyu covered Qin Xiyan's little hand, looked at Qin Xiyan affectionately and said, "Xiyan, wait for me! I will definitely come to marry you in three years." After saying that, he walked out without looking back. As for what he was thinking just now, if Qin Xiyan had another sweetheart or something within three years, he would have forgotten about it a long time ago. Just when Long Yeyu was just out of the gate, Steward Xu caught up and said, "Master Long! This is what the old slave asked the old slave to give to Master Long." After saying that, he took a horse and a hundred taels of silver, Long Yeyu didn't shirk it, put away the silver and got on the horse, hugged his fists and said to Steward Xu: "Steward Xu......!

Long Yeyu passed by a baked cake shop, and Long Yeyu thought to himself: "It is better to buy some dry food and put it in the "Qiankun Bag" and keep it on the road to eat than to eat wild fruits!" Thinking of this, Long Yeyu got down and asked, "How do you sell this baked cake?" The seller of the baked cake was a middle-aged man, only to hear the man say: "Three lines of money one!" Long Yeyu took out a tael of silver and said: "I have it" The middle-aged man hurriedly smiled and said: "Thank you for this master!

Long Yeyu suddenly thought that he didn't know the location of the Nantian Ancient Temple, so he asked, "Do you know where to sell maps?" The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This master! Go left from here, and the second one will sell maps." Master, this is your baked cake!" Long Yeyu took it and put it in "Qiankun Bag", and then led the horse towards the place where the middle-aged man said.

"The second house on the left" Long Yeyu looked down and saw a slightly dilapidated door with a signboard on it that read: 'Liu Ji Grocery Store', Long Yeyu went in and saw an old man sitting there concentrating on carving a piece of wood. Long Yeyu didn't bother to wait patiently for the old man, I don't know how long it took for the old man to put down the wood in his hand, looked up at Long Yeyu and said, "There are not many young people like you now! What do you want to buy?"

Long Yeyu clenched his fists and said, "Old man, I want to buy a map!" The old man glanced at Long Yeyu and said, "Then what kind of map do you want to buy?" Long Yeyu asked curiously: "Is there a difference between this map?" The old man said with some pride: "That's it! If it is in other places, it is one, but in the old man, there are many kinds." For example, the map of the Huanhe Sect realm, the map of the Huashen Sect realm, the map of the entire Central Plains, or the map of the four forbidden lands, etc., are all drawn by the old man himself. Long Yeyu was a little surprised, how many years does it take to paint these places?

Long Yeyu said with admiration: "I didn't expect you to have such an experience, it's really admirable!" After listening to Long Yeyu's words, the old man laughed heartily and said: "You young man can talk! Say where do you want to go? The old man will find you a map!" Long Yeyu thanked him: "Then thank you old man! I want to go to Nantian Ancient Temple." After listening to Long Yeyu's words, the old man took out a map made of sheepskin from behind and said: "Then you can take this one! There is a way to Nantian Ancient Temple!" Long Yeyu took the map and saw that it marked the road of Nantian Ancient Temple, Long Yeyu thought to himself: "This map only marks the road of Nantian Ancient Temple, but there is nothing else! It is better to have another map of the Central Plains, so as to know what famous mountains and rivers there are in the Central Plains!" Thinking of this, Long Yeyu said to the old man: "Old man, I still want a map of the Central Plains, I don't know if there is one?"

The old man continued to carve the wood and said, "Yes, yes, but it costs a tael of gold." Long Yeyu couldn't help but feel distressed, the master said that the equivalent rate of the currency, one hundred copper coins = one tael of silver, and one hundred taels of silver = one tael of gold, this map will cost one or two gold, look at the silver given by Master Qin, it will be gone before it leaves the city. Long Yeyu glanced at the old man and said, "Old man, bring me one, I'll buy it! I want this one too!" The old man put down the things in his hand, took out a thick roll of sheepskin from behind, put it on the table, and said: "Young man! This took the old man three months to paint! A tael of gold is not expensive! As for the one in your hand, I will give it to you!"

After the dragon night rain took it, I felt a little heavy! I saw that the sheepskin was painted with dense lines and cities, and the boundaries of each sect and the name of the city under its jurisdiction were marked. Long Yeyu thought that it would not be unjust to spend a tael of gold! Long Yeyu put it away and put it in the "Qiankun Bag", took out a hundred taels of silver, handed it to the old man, and said, "Thank you, old man!" The old man took the money and stopped looking at Long Yeyu, and he concentrated on carving the work that had been slightly formed in his hand. Seeing this, Long Yeyu slowly left.

Long Yeyu glanced at the map in his hand, and Long Yeyu said, "I'm going to go out from the south gate." With that, he turned on his horse and galloped towards the south gate...... However, less than a month after Long Yeyu left, the Qin Mansion was wiped out, and there was not a single person in the mansion alive, but there was no corpse of Miss Qin. But this qiē dragon night rain is not known. Long Yeyu still walked towards Nantiangu Temple according to the map.

After walking for more than half a month, Long Yeyu didn't even see a single figure, and it may take two or three months to walk while looking at the map marking. Long Yeyu put down the map helplessly, looked at the sky, and couldn't help but think of Qin Xiyan's sad expression when he left. Carefully took out the handkerchief from his arms, only to see that the mandarin ducks playing in the water were embroidered on it, and the words 'Xiyan' were embroidered below. Long Yeyu sighed: "Xiyan, you are so affectionate to me, how can I let you down!" After speaking, he carefully put the handkerchief back.

Then Long Yeyu pinched the horse's belly, and the horse, which was still grazing leisurely, galloped and ran...... Just as the sun was about to set, Long Yeyu saw a small village in the distance. Long Yeyu couldn't help but be overjoyed: "I can finally have a good night's rest." Drive!" and ran towards the village......

However, when Long Yeyu rode up to him on a horse, the scene at that time instantly made Long Yeyu angry. I saw a few young people lying at the door of the village, and everyone was stabbed more than a dozen times...... With every step of Long Yeyu's heart, it seemed to be stabbed severely, and he saw that the entire village, regardless of men, women, and children, had died miserably, and the men in the village were all stabbed dozens of times, and some were cut into several pieces. And the women are even more resentful, all of them are killed after being humiliated, and some are still naked on the ground. Even the baby in his arms did not let go.

Long Yeyu looked at the faces of the whole village full of resentment, unwillingness, and humiliation, and couldn't help clenching his fists tightly, and said angrily: "Who is it? Can you do such a bad thing that is unconscionable! I must kill him!" This is the first time Long Yeyu has seen such a tragic thing after coming down the mountain! It is also the first time that Long Yeyu is angry, just when Long Yeyu silently moved the people in the village to one place, Long Yeyu found that there was actually a living mouth, it was an old man with a flower armor, but he was seriously injured.
