Chapter 26: The Stinking Seat
"Hey, I heard that the stupid son of Guangfu is going to marry the youngest daughter of the Ye family......"
"Tut-tut, you said that this fool is too blessed......"
"Not only did I recognize Guangshu as a rich and powerful father, but since then I have changed my surname to a rich and noble son, and now my wife is also in hand."
"This Ye family's youngest daughter is a star in the sky on weekdays, and his father has to pick it off for her, and I don't know ...... this time."
"Well, who knows...... In this Jialing City, who dares to provoke Guangfu... He Guangshu is the emperor of the soil here......"
"Be quiet, the light fool is coming......"
The crowd of people discussing on the street gradually dispersed, and Guangnian passed by here, his expression remained unchanged, and he continued to walk towards Ye Mansion.
"Yo, this fool is going to see his father-in-law......"
Another voice sounded from the crowd, and just a glance passed, and immediately disappeared again.
He hadn't fallen asleep since he woke up last night.
Did you even change your surname again?
I don't know if the mirror was intentional or unintentional......
Light Nian, no, it should be Li Nian.
He had woken up last night and had regained consciousness and had even remembered who he really was.
After planning for the night, I can only leave here if I find the person holding the mirror.
He tried hard to recall, and only then did he remember the figures in the place before Bai Guang appeared, and those two should be Yu Gluttonous Cat and Ye Xiasang of the Ye family in Erxue City.
For the time being, he didn't know Yu Wan's whereabouts and identity, so he could only go to Ye Xiasang first to see if he could get a breakthrough from her.
That's why he cleaned himself up early in the morning, came out with the little stone beside him, and walked all the way over.
One is to better understand the world in the mirror, after all, the memories in the brain cannot be seen real......
Second, I also want to see if I can meet Yu Wan......
It seems that his luck is not particularly good......
"Young master, the pastries of the Shijin Kee family on Suzaku Street are particularly good, now is the time to freshly bake, do you want to bring some when you go to Yefu... Otherwise, it's always a little bad to be empty-handed......"
Shi looked at the young master, who was quite different today, and cautiously reminded him.
"If you don't say I'll forget, let's go...... Let's go buy some and then go to Yefu. ”
Li Nian opened the fan, shook it to himself, and said to the stone behind him while strolling forward.
"Yes, young master."
Shi listened to the young master who was normal again today, and the Taoist priest in his heart was really powerful, and after only one night, his own young master recovered.
The monks who had been invited in the past had never used such a short period of time......
Stone thought happily in his heart and followed him to Suzaku Street.
At this time, the shops on Suzaku Street also opened their doors one after another.
Yu Mei opened the shop first and cleaned up.
In the evening, she would come later in the evening, and she would go to the market in the north to buy vegetables before leaving the store.
Li Nian didn't take much effort to come out, and the stone behind him was carrying many gift boxes, which were obviously meant to be given to the Ye family.
He walked slowly across the street and turned right to Yefu in the Eastern District.
Not long after leaving, Yu Wan and Mo Yiming came in from the north side of the street with large bags and small bags and went to the big bowl restaurant.
The two just missed.
Ye Mansion, front yard hall.
"Master, the prince of Guangfu is here, and his little servant is still carrying all kinds of pastries from Shijin Ji."
The housekeeper hurriedly ran in and reported to Ye Zhuo.
Ye Zhuo put down the tea bowl and said in a deep voice, "Let him come in." ”
"Yes."
The butler replied, ran to the gate again, and welcomed Li Nian in.
After entering the mansion, Li Nian put away the fan, put his hands behind his back, and slowly followed the housekeeper to the hall.
"Little nephew Guangnian to meet Uncle Ye."
"I don't know what happened to my nephew when he came to the house, but he brought so many snacks."
Li Nian didn't care about Ye Zhuo's black face, and after he bowed, he sat directly in the lower position.
He lit the small table beside him with a fan and motioned for the butler to pour tea.
"It's fine, but I just thought that I grew up with Sister Xia Sang since I was a child, and I haven't seen each other for many days, so I came to visit today, and by the way, I asked Sister Xia Sang for some things......
Seeing that Guangnian was so rude, the housekeeper looked at Ye Zhuo.
But seeing Ye Zhuo nodded, he had no choice but to run to get a cup of tea.
"Light Child, please use it."
Li Nian nodded, picked up the tea bowl on the side of his hand, held it with his left hand, and kept playing with the tea lid back and forth with his right hand, and didn't drink it.
The bowls collide and make a loud sound.
"The virtuous nephew should know the rumors in the city from yesterday, and the old man can agree to it on weekdays, but now I'm afraid it's inappropriate, so as not to misunderstand others......"
Ye Zhuo was irritable when he heard the jingle sound, but he could only endure it, and he refused Guangnian's request.
"Since Uncle Ye knows the rumors in the city, he must also know that I came from Suzaku Street......
Li Nian was neither angry nor anxious, he continued to play with the tea bowl and spoke.
"And since my uncle knows that the two of us will be married soon, there is no need to worry about avoiding suspicion......
"You ......"
Without waiting for Ye Zhuo to speak, Li Nian continued.
"Uncle, rest assured, today's little nephew is only for personal matters, and in a few days, my father will invite the matchmaker in the city to come and hire him, and the Ye family will not be less at all."
"These are some of the thoughts I brought to my uncle and aunt, and I ask him to accept them."
"Sister Xia Sang is still in Bangfeng Pavilion, and the little nephew will go over first."
After Li Nian finished speaking, he put down the teacup, bowed his hand to Ye Zhuo again, and left directly in the direction of the backyard.
Stone hurriedly handed over the things in his hand to the butler and ran after him.
"Don't be angry, sir...... This light boy is not rude for a day or two...... You drink tea slowly. ”
Seeing that Ye Zhuo looked like he was about to faint, the housekeeper hurriedly put the things on the chair where Guang Nian was sitting, went over to pick up the tea bowl, and handed it to Ye Zhuo's mouth......
Following the familiar route, Li Nian soon arrived outside the Bangfeng Pavilion, and when he saw that the door was not open, he shouted loudly inside.
"Sister Xia Sang, I'm coming to see you, help me open the door......"
This behavior was quite in line with the style of the old days, and no one thought it strange, and in a few moments, the door opened.
"Guang Gongzi, please."
A maid dressed in light green led the light to the hall.
The halls here are noticeably more elegant.
Li Nian looked at Ye Xiasang, who was sitting at the top, and sat directly in front of the right closest to her.
"Guang Nian, what are you doing here......
"Tell you, put away your thoughts, I won't marry you."
Hearing Ye Xiasang's angry words, Li Nian was very sure that she didn't remember her true identity at all.
He sensed carefully all the way, and did not find the breath of the mirror.
Looking at it this way, it should be on the greedy cat.
He didn't care what Ye Xiasang said, and asked her straight to the point.
"Do you know a woman named Yu Wan?"
Li Nian paused, pondering Yu Wan's features, and after a moment, added, "She's silver-haired. ”
Ye Xiasang heard him mention his good sister, his heart tightened, and he was afraid that he had some bad intentions.
But after hearing his addition, the worries in my heart disappeared completely......
My family has black and shiny hair at night, this is a pervert......
She was about to say a few words when the kitchen maid came.
"Miss, do you want to eat the beef ramen that Miss Yu brought over last night for lunch today?"
When Li Nian heard this question, he couldn't help but feel that he was extremely lucky, and he asked the maid directly.
"Who are you talking about?"
The maid looked at Guang Nian, and then at her own young lady, and knew that she couldn't afford to offend Guang Nian more than Miss, so she immediately knelt down, put her forehead on the ground, and spoke.
"Miss forgiveness. Miss Yu...... She is the cook of the big bowl restaurant, and she came to deliver fresh food to my young lady last night......"
"Where's the Big Bowl Restaurant?"
Li Nian continued to ask.
"Young master, it's on Suzaku Street, and the opposite of Shijin Ji is diagonally."
Before the maid could speak, the stone standing behind him spoke.
"Is it so close? Then I'm really unlucky......"
Li Nian was about to get up as he spoke, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and explained to the stone behind him.
"Now go to the big bowl restaurant and ask Chef Yu to help me make a table of noodles, remember to invite her to my courtyard in the house, don't let my father see her......"
"By the way, if someone else or my father asks, you will say that this is the cook recommended to me by Sister Xia Sang, and I can't live up to her kindness."
After Li Nian finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Ye Xiasang who was looking up, and patted the palm of his left hand with a fan in his right hand, his expression was quite playful.
"Young master, what dishes do you want to make?"
The stone confirms to the light.
"The stinky it is, the stinky the better......"
"This ......"
"Don't go yet!"
"Yes."
Shi frowned and agreed, although it was strange in his heart, he still brought the words over, and directly took Yu Wan to the small stone garden.
The stone was quite clever, and after entering the house through the back door, he went all the way to the courtyard of Guangnian, and he didn't meet anyone at all.
When he went out of the gate again and met the housekeeper who was serving by Guangshu's side, he unintentionally mentioned it, and then went to pick up his young master.
Yu Wan, who was still preparing today's food list in the big bowl restaurant, heard the stone's request, and her face did not fluctuate, comforting Yu Mei and letting her go back to rest with confidence.
Then, she looked at the ingredients in the kitchen, called Shi Shi in to help with some of them, and then left a note for Mo Yiming, and closed the shop and left.
At this time, she was processing the ingredients in the kitchen of the small stone garden.
It's quiet here, but it's very worry-free.
Yu Wan didn't know why she wasn't worried at all, she only knew that it was enough to have a knife in her hand.
In the evening, Guangshu wanted to express the deep love between father and son.
As a result, he was only halfway through when he smelled an indescribable strange stench, and he continued to take a few steps forward, which was unbearable, and the butler behind him made an excuse for him to leave.
Li Nian didn't seem to smell anything, he took the stone directly into the courtyard.
Seeing that the stone was pinching his nose all the way and holding his breath, Li Nian asked him to go out and come back later.
The stone shirked twice, but seeing that his young master insisted, he left at a fast speed.
At this time, there were only two people in Xiaoshiyuan, Li Nian and Yu Wan.
It can even be said that there are only two of them in the entire East Courtyard...... Everyone else was so smoked that they ran to the front yard.
Looking at the banquet at a table in the house, Li Nian didn't stop and went directly to the kitchen.
"Miss Yu, I don't know if I can go to the front hall with Zai Xia and explain each dish for Zaixia."
Li Nian was very generous and invited Yu Wan.
Yu Wan had no reason to refuse, on the contrary, she couldn't help but be curious when she saw that this light thought could not change her face in front of such a taste.
This is really different from the rumors.
So she nodded and followed Guangnian to the front hall.
"Miss Yu, please be seated."
Li Nian first invited Yu Wan to take a seat, and then he also sat on Yu Wan's left hand side.
"Guang Gongzi, this is fried bacon with sour bamboo shoots, and this is the root of the folded ear...... In the middle of the cauldron, in the end, is the cow deflated pot......"
"Every one of these dishes is according to the requirements of Guang Gongzi."
Yu Wan introduced the dishes on the table one by one, and every time she introduced one, Li Nian nodded beside her.
At this time, after Yu Wan finished speaking, he also nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Yu is really clever, and such delicious food can be easily served." ”
"It's over."
For Guang Nian's appreciation, Yu Wan just nodded and replied to him calmly.
Li Nianzheng on the side was about to take the chopsticks, but he changed direction in an instant and directly grabbed Yu Wan's wrist.
"Guang Gongzi, you are ......"
Yu Wan struggled to ask.
Li Nian ignored it at all, he grabbed it tightly, pointed the sword finger in his left hand at the forehead, and said something in his mouth.
"The world is full of desires...... The heart is like a mirror, incarnating Bodhi... Mind is one, wake up quickly......"
After reading the words, a little white spiritual light emerged from his fingertips and rushed into the forehead of the night.
Yu Wan was pierced by the white light and closed his eyes and held his head in his hands.
It took her half an hour to recover from the severe headache, and her eyes were radiant and her spirits were bright.
"Yu gluttonous cat... It's been a long time since you've become a cook...... But if you look closely, you still have silver-white hair......"
Li Nian saw that Yu Wan was relieved, and he opened his mouth to ridicule.
Yu Wan raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at Li Nian.
More than two years have passed, Li Nian has also grown from a child to a teenager, and at this moment his voice is a little hoarse, and he should be about to change his voice.
"Tiedan, you have changed a lot...... I think I was still a little kid who would sneak my belly back then......"
Not to be outdone, Yu Wan stabbed him.
When Li Nian heard the familiar name, he lost his mind and laughed, and then his face was full of bitterness.
"I'm not called an iron egg now... You're going to call me Li Nian...... In this mirror, I'm going to be called to the light......"
Seeing his bitter maturity that did not match his current age, I guessed in my heart that he must have suffered a lot of sins after being like the Nine Heavens Pavilion.
Then she heard the words "Mirror" again, she frowned and thought, and slowly spoke after a while.
"Is it the stone mirror? Are we in that stone mirror? ”
Seeing that Yu Wan reacted quickly, Li Nian couldn't help but be very happy and appreciative in his heart.
This girl is still as smart as ever.
Thinking of her questioning herself when she was 4 years old, Li Nian shook her head, temporarily suppressed the memories in her heart, and began to explain to Yu Wan.
"The stone mirror is the mirror, Buddhism has clouds, a flower and a world, a leaf and a Bodhi ......"
"There are thousands of worlds in this mirror, and once you are sucked into the mirror, you can only wake up and leave the ...... if you can break through the current situation."
"Then you and I ......"
"Don't worry, it's still the same as before, cry your nose in a hurry if you can't get an answer......"
Li Nian interrupted Yu Wan and teased by the way.
Yu Wan directly gave him a roll of the eyes.
"I... I swallowed the spirit of this mirror by chance, which is equivalent to directly imprinting my divine consciousness with this immortal treasure, and it is already mine. ”
Li Nian said, her eyes looked directly at Yu Wan, and then gestured with her eyes to the stone mirror she had just taken out in her hand.
"To you, who is rare......
Yu Wan threw it directly away.
Li Nian caught it, and said to Yu Wan with a smile.
"Don't worry, if we want to get out, we have to kill one person, no, I should say it's a demon."
Yu Wan motioned for him to continue.
"It's the ...... of Guangshu"
"Ever since I swallowed the machine spirit, I have been affected by its remnants at first, and I have fallen into madness...... It was only last night that I completely fused my memories and regained my sense of self......"
"There is an ancient immortal's cave in that lava passage, and he died with a mass of black demons when he slay demons in ancient times, and destroyed the demon ...... with his blunt sword of silence."
"It's a pity that the black devil is not easy to mess with, and some of the spiritual consciousness he escaped ran into this mirror, not only driving away the machine spirit, but also absorbing part of its ability......"
"So in this mirrored world, not only can I control it, but he can also... Even the ability to control is greater than mine. ”
"Could it be that Guangshu is the embodiment of the demon?" Yu Wan listened all the way and said his guess.
Li Nian shook his head, signaled her not to worry, and continued to speak.
"I guess it should be that the immortal senior didn't wipe it out, so that the other people who strayed in unintentionally broke the seal, and let the demon come in with us......"
"Otherwise, in this world, he is just a touch of consciousness, and it is easy for me to destroy him."
"Others ......"
Yu Wan's mouth was lightly thought, and his mind searched for suspicious characters.
In addition to Xia Sang who was with her, could it be that Mo Yiming was also a person from the cultivation realm......
"For now, we must kill the demon first...... Otherwise, once he finds out that we are awakened, we will definitely be wiped out. ”
"How?" Yu Wan asked.
"I need your cooperation, the empty flame on your body ......"
Yu Wan's eyes were full of doubts, and she looked straight at Li Nian, "Empty flames? ”
Li Nian nodded and continued to explain.
"Originally, before the immortal predecessor died, he wrapped the mirror with his own strange fire and empty flames, wanting to send it out...... It was ruined by the dark devil. ”
"The Void Flame has also greatly diminished spirituality because of this, and only a small wisp is left behind the mirror......
"That day, after you slashed the stone wall around the mirror, the mirror fell down later, and the Sky Flame flew directly into your arms with it......"
As he spoke, Li Nian couldn't help but roll his eyes, and his tone was full of sourness.
"This empty flame is a rare alien fire in the fairy world, ranking second on the alien fire list...... You're really in luck......"
Not to be outdone, Yu Wan gave him a bigger white eye, "Don't be sour there, you can still sell it if you get the fairy treasure, think about how to kill that black devil......"
Li Nian didn't pay attention to Yu Wan's complaints, his expression changed, and he looked at her with a teasing expression.
"Of course there is a way."
Yu Wan listened attentively when he heard him say this.
"Marry me...... When you visit the church on the day of your wedding, you can just throw the white flame into Guangshu's body...... That demon is weak now, and a little empty flame can burn him to the ground......"
"Then wake up the other person and leave......"
"No matter how much I control the Sky Flame, I can't even feel its existence." Yu later pointed out the key.
Li Nian saw that she didn't react at all when she heard her say that she got married, and she couldn't help but feel a little bored in her heart, he pursed his lips and spoke again.
"So good luck...... The machine spirit I devoured happened to have the method of induction refining...... You come here. ”
Yu Wan listened to Li Nian's induction and refining formula.
After a while, Li Nian leaned back a little and said, "Have you remembered everything?" ”
Yu Wan nodded and said, "I'll go back first, remember to finish eating......"
After speaking, without waiting for Li Nian to reply, he left directly through the back door.
Li Nian said shameless villain in his mouth and watched her leave the courtyard.
Then he turned his head and frowned at a table of exotic foods.
Gollum~
"Alas~"
What else can I do, let's eat......
Li Nian sighed, picked up his chopsticks and swallowed the sour bamboo shoots and bacon with bated breath.
Well?!
As he chewed, his heart was very surprised, and his frowning brow relaxed......
He picked up the rice bowl, held it with chopsticks, and ate very happily.
Yu returned to the small courtyard in the evening, comforted his brother who was still waiting in the courtyard, and went back to the house to meditate.
It is autumn, the night is getting deeper, and the coldness in the air is intensifying, but it does not affect the candle-lit house and the fire of people's hearts.
Mo Yiming felt as if his sister had changed, he took out the blunt sword again and stared straight at it under the faint candlelight.
Gu Changfeng also felt that something was wrong with him recently, obviously he was very happy with Mingyue, but why did he always feel empty in his heart whenever he faced her recently......
Ye Xiasang didn't sleep either, she didn't want to marry Guang Nian, she already had someone she liked, but she didn't know what that person's heart was......
Wu Yue, who had heard about the tie-breaking between the two families of One Day Light Leaf, was also extremely irritable at this time, and he paced back and forth in the house and couldn't sleep.
Hour after hour passed, and dawn was about to break through the ground when it was already darkest outside the window......
As if he had made a decision, he took out his silver-gray and red-tasseled spear, pushed the door straight and walked into the night.
