Chapter 142: Up and Down the Mountain

The woman in white who suddenly visited, the two couldn't be more familiar, isn't it Fan Xuan? It's just that she is not in the Zixia Sect now, how did she come to Qingfeng Valley?

Hearing Xu Huaigu ask her, Fan Xuan replied: "My master said that there is something important for you, and it is not safe to send someone else to you, so he specially asked me to take a trip." ”

It must be the last time we talked about trading, Xu Huaigu nodded and sat down beside the two. Fan Xuan took out a bracelet and a letter, handed it to Xu Huaigu, and said, "These are these two things." ”

Xu Huaigu took it and put it in his hand to look at it. The bracelet was made of silver and jade, a good storage magic weapon, and it was heavy in his hand, and there should be a lot of things in it; In addition, on the letter, there were several cinnabar red characters written "Xu Huaigu personally opened", and the mud was sealed intact.

Xu Huaigu accepted the bracelet and the letter, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for you." ”

Fan Xuan shook her head and said, "Master's orders, don't dare to disobey." ”

Xu Huaigu nodded, Fan Xuan stood up, and said, "Since everything has been brought, then I will go back to the mountain gate immediately." ”

Yu Qin hurriedly stood up, grabbed her hand with a smile, and said, "It's all here, what are you doing in such a hurry?" It's good to stay here for a few days, and everyone gets together, and it's more lively. ”

Fan Xuan refused: "I have received Yu Daoyou's wishes, but the Zixia Sect has had a lot of affairs recently, so I can't stay for a long time, so I have to leave quickly." ”

Yu Qin said with a smile: "Last time we went to Zixia Sect, your master said that we would stay for a few days, and now you are in such a hurry to leave, do you think we are too simple?" Don't have a wing room for you to live in? ”

Fan Xuan hurriedly explained: "Yu Daoyou laughed, Fan is not that kind of person. My generation of Taoist monks, it is common for Qing to live a hard life. It's just that the last time the two of you went to our sect, they were guests, so the master arranged the best place to live, and my place of residence on weekdays is similar to here, so where can I dislike it? ”

It turned out to be a joke that he couldn't quite afford. Yu Qin smiled and said, "If you don't dislike it, then stay, stay for a few days and then leave." ”

Fan Xuan frowned and said, "It's not that Fan doesn't know what to do and doesn't want to appreciate it, it's just that ......"

She paused before lowering her eyes and continuing: "It's just that now the demon clan is going north day and night, attacking the city and plundering the land, and it is only two or three hundred miles away from the sect, and it is estimated that it will not be more than ten days, and it will be up the mountain." This is a matter of the survival of the sect, and I must go back. ”

Yu Qin was not persuaded at this time, Xu Huaigu asked her, "You came here this time, and your master didn't tell you anything else?" Don't have anything else to bring me? ”

Fan Xuan shook her head and said, "Just these two things." ”

Xu Huaigu opened the letter, glanced at it roughly, nodded as if suddenly, and said, "Fan Xuan, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back for a while." ”

"Why?"

"Your master said in the letter that he wanted to borrow something from me. However, that thing has been left by me in the Fuyao Sect, and now that she wants to get up, I have to send a letter to the Fuyao Sect to have someone bring that thing over, it may take a few days. ”

Fan Xuan looked at Xu Huaigu suspiciously and asked, "How many days?" ”

"Even if I send the Flying Sword tonight, it will be at least five days before someone delivers it."

"Five days ......" Fan Xuan pondered for a moment, "Five days is still too late." ”

"So, you will stay in Qingfeng Valley for five or six days, and when Xu Huaigu gets his things, you will go back to the sect." Yu Qin grabbed her hand, led her to sit down, and said with a smile, "Isn't it a mistake?" ”

Fan Xuan frowned, and wanted to say something, Xu Huaigu smiled and said, "You can live in peace, I will send a letter to her from your master's side, saying that I will keep you here for a few days, it's okay." ”

"That's fine, then I'll stay for a few days."

Yu Qin nodded with a smile and said, "I'll take you for a walk around Qingfeng Valley tomorrow." ”

Fan Xuan nodded.

She was naturally kept in the dark, how did she know that the deal that Xu Huaigu talked about with her master was herself? Although Murong Di was also kind-hearted, he sent Fan Xuan to Qingfeng Valley on the pretext of sending things, but it was a little rash.

Xu Huaigu looked down at Fan Xuan, only to see her talking and laughing with Yu Qin, not knowing everything. She had just come from the Zixia Sect, and she had already said goodbye to her master. Now that she has come to Xu Huaigu's side, no matter what reason she has left, she can't go back. Murong Di didn't say a few words? is really so ruthless, the drama is so real, and there is no compassion?

Xu Huaigu glanced at the letter Murong Di gave him a few more times, and the letter only said that Xu Huaigu should take care of her, and then wait for Fan Xuan to give her the bracelet after the Eight Realms, and then she would know everything. Nothing else. Xu Huaigu couldn't help frowning a little, and asked her again: "Your master really didn't say anything else to you?" ”

Fan Xuan was stunned and replied, "No." Why, what is missing from the letter? Why don't I go back and ask Master again? ”

"No, I'll just ask." Xu Huaigu shook his head and asked her, "Aren't you curious, what kind of deal did your master and I make?" ”

"If Master wants me to know about the business he has done with you, he has already told me. She doesn't want me to know, I'm just asking you, and you won't tell me. ”

Xu Huaigu smiled, put the letter and bracelet into the robe, and said, "That's right." ”

Fan Xuan only felt that Xu Huaigu was a little strange tonight, and between her words, she seemed to faintly want to reveal something to her, but she didn't make it clear, so she couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin glanced at each other, and the two of them had the same mind, so they naturally understood. Yu Qin hurriedly took Fan Xuan's hand affectionately and said with a smile: "Fan Daoyou, do you know how to play chess?" ”

Fan Xuan nodded slightly and said, "There will be some." ”

"Then can you teach me these days?"

Fan Xuanqian said: "When I have nothing to do, I just play two games with my senior brothers and sisters." I only know one rule, and I can't compare to you if I think about it, where can I teach you? ”

"Why, I think you're too modest. Anyway, if you have nothing to do, teach me these days. ”

Xu Huaigu smiled at Yu Qin and said, "Why do you suddenly want to learn chess?" ”

Yu Qin's eyes glanced into the inner room, and Ruyu was inside. She laughed in a low voice: "Since Chen Qi taught Ruyu to play chess last time, he has been learning recently, and he often looks at the chess game for several hours, motionless. During the day, you don't stay in the bamboo building, Ruyu often pulls me down with him. But after ten days of hard work, I can't beat him, if Sister Fan doesn't teach me a few tricks, I'm afraid I'll have to make a mess in front of him. ”

Yu Qin also knew in her heart that Fan Xuan would be on the road with the two of them in the future, so it was better to give the title as soon as possible, so as not to be a Taoist friend and appear to be angry. That Fan Xuan heard Yu Qin call her sister, her expression was also stagnant, and she saw Yu Qin with a smile on her face, as if she didn't care about this, so she happily accepted it and didn't ask too much. Fan Xuan smiled at Yu Qin and said, "I'll do my best." ”

Xu Huaigu also looked at the inner room, his eyes relieved.

It is a good thing that chess can cultivate nature, and it is a good thing to like chess, which shows that Ruyu has accepted and loved the things of the human race, and this change is very important. At first, he just followed Xu Huaigu just to have a place to live, but now he also has his favorite things and people who accompany him, but he is like a human child. It is said that the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual, and how much he can be cultivated in the future depends on himself, and Xu Huaigu can only be an admonisher.

The few people chatted for a while, and then they rested.

……

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was dark, and before Xu Huaigu and the three of them had opened their eyes from the night practice, Chen Qi walked briskly towards the bamboo building. She didn't know why she was so happy, she got up early in the morning, ran to the bamboo building in a series of small steps, and knocked on the door hard.

Ruyu was squinting and napping slightly in the inner room on the first floor, and the knock on the door fell on his ears like thunder, startling him to open his eyes and wake up. Seeing that it was still early, I couldn't help but glance upstairs with some concern, and hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door.

When Chen Qi saw him, he smiled and said, "Ruyu, I'll tell you good news!" ”

Ruyu was startled, hurriedly put her index finger to her lips, pointed to the inside of the room, and said, "Mr. and Sister Yu, as well as another sister who came from outside last night, are all practicing upstairs now, you should be quiet, don't disturb them." ”

"There's a sister out there?" Chen Qi poked his head into the house, "Where did you come from?" ”

"It seems to be called the Zixia Sect."

"Hmm, Zixia Sect." Chen Qi pondered for a moment, blinked his eyes, lowered his voice a little, and pretended to be mysterious, "You don't want to know what good news I'm about to say?" ”

"Huh? What is it? ”

Chen Qixiao narrowed his eyes, leaned his face closer, and said next to his ear: "I know that you have been learning chess very well recently, haven't you always wanted a few chess books?" Now, the opportunity is here. ”

Ruyu looked straight at her.

Chen Qi glanced at him. Although he has seen him many times, every time he sees his eyes, Chen Qi can't help but secretly praise him in his heart. She was happy in her heart, and said with a smile: "The person guarding the gate at the mountain gate today is a senior brother of mine who is familiar to me, and we have a pretty good relationship, I will go and talk to him, and we can take the opportunity to slip down the mountain and go to the town at the foot of the mountain." There are not only bookstores in that town, but also a lot of delicious and fun food, how about we go to play for a day and buy chess games for you by the way? ”

Quietly leaving the sect, this is a matter outside the rules, Ruyu frowned, a little uneasy.

"Go, go." Seeing him hesitating, Chen Qi hurriedly pulled his hand and persuaded, "That town is not far away, let's set off at this time, come back at night, and we can still play in the town for several hours!" It's not good to be any later. ”

Ruyu was a little shaken. Going to the town to play is secondary, after all, he followed Xu Huaigu from the border to here, Xingqing and Qiyin have also seen it, and the town and village have also seen a lot, but after learning to play chess seriously in the past few days, he and Yu Qin are gradually evenly matched, so he also began to want to see more chess scenery, so he really wanted a few chess books.

After weighing it up, he said, "Well, I have to wait until my husband wakes up, and I tell him before I can leave." ”

Seeing that he agreed, Chen Qi hurriedly smiled and said, "What's the matter, you write a letter and put it on the table, and your husband will naturally see it when he wakes up." We're in a hurry, we have to hurry up. ”

After hearing this, Ruyu also felt that it made sense, so she went back to the bamboo building, left a letter and put it on the table, and closed the door and left with Chen Qi. The two of them left happily, but they didn't know how much trouble they had caused by this departure.
