Chapter Eighty-Four: The Temple of the Sacred Mountain
Chapter 84
Breakfast was withdrawn, and Mahjong took them to a different tea room, which he opened up on the second floor of a small building in the back garden. According to him, this small building used to be called Tingyu Building. When he said this, Du Zheng looked down at the barren garden with a railing, and the artemisia grass was almost as tall as a plantain, how could there be a little elegance, and he scoffed at the words of mahjong.
Luo Qi and Guan Xinyue were one step behind, and they were still in the garden and did not go upstairs. Guan Xinyue came a few days earlier than Luo Qi, and she is familiar with this place, and she is working as a tour guide for Luo Qi. The two of them looked at the pool in the garden side by side, not knowing what Guan Xinyue was talking about, Luo Qi nodded frequently, looking very harmonious. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and after a while, Luo Qi picked up a stone and threw it into the pool for some reason, and the not very clean water splashed Guan Xinyue's body.
Luo Qi looked stunned for a moment, Guan Xinyue screamed angrily, and kicked Luo Qi a few times.
Mahjong said with emotion, "You said that Luo Qi, a little rabbit cub, should be close to Guan Xinyue's age in terms of biological age, but in fact, it seems that sometimes it is not as mature as Guan Xinyue." But Guan Xinyue is too, in order to help Luo Qi, he even dared to go to the mage's lair, but when he saw Luo Qi, he could fight in ten minutes. ”
Du Zhengyi looked at the chickens and dogs jumping downstairs, and suddenly said, "Have you ever thought that after Li Xu saw you, he sent Zhao Zhiyan to the Guan family, and then found an excuse to take Luo Qi away, which was actually for me." ”
"You mean it's your business that Li Xu originally wanted to dig out of Roach's head?" This came too suddenly, and Mahjong was stunned for a while. But after a little thought, he knew that what Du Zhengyi said was not wrong, Li Xu's bad luck was completely crooked, and no one thought that Luo Qi would have such a great value.
"If he's just trying to vent his anger, or to promote his own extreme views, he's not going to pick on Roach right under our noses. If he was such a simple person, he would not have climbed to where he is today in the Qionglin. Du Zhengyi said, "He just finally picked a person around me who could start, and he didn't care too much before he acted in a hurry." His purpose was probably to find out what had happened to me in the Lonely Mountain three years ago. Lonely Mountain is like a target that people of his level would be interested in. ”
"That makes sense."
"Luo Qi has been tossed under the ground of Qionglin for so long, and he will not know at all what Li Xu wants from him. But when he returned, he didn't say anything, and he didn't complain. Du Zhengyi said, "I think he doesn't want me to owe him anything." ”
Mahjong laughed, "In this case, this little brother is still a bit likable." ”
"So," Du Zhengyi paused, condescendingly seeing that Luo Qi couldn't bear to finally fight back, quarreled with Guan Xinyue in the garden, and threw a stone into the pool, childish as three and a half years old. "So, when I'm not there in the future, you should take care of him more, and at least help him get through the anchor level."
Mahjong's smile disappeared from his face, and he looked at Du Zhengyi's back for a while, then turned around to make tea.
Du Zhengyi didn't speak, the spring day in the south was warm and vibrant, Luo Qi and Guan Xinyue quarreled with the sky, it seemed that they had broken off again, and the two of them were coming here angrily. When I walked up the wooden staircase, I didn't know whose hooves were clattering the stairs.
Mahjong sighed annoyed behind him, but he couldn't help but smile slightly, walked over and sat down, and could still hear the noise of the wooden floor when he took the celadon teacup from Mahjong's hand.
After a while, Luo Qi and Guan Xinyue walked in angrily.
"Boys are stupid!" Guan Xinyue scolded first, and scolded three in one bite.
Luo Qi sat beside Du Zhengyi angrily and looked at Du Zhengyi with an unkind face.
"Good self-control, boy," Du Zhengyi looked at him with a smile, "Even if you throw two stones, it won't explode." ”
Luo Qi was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that his good days were over, and he suddenly became worried.
"Okay, you two are such big people, don't fight like a cat and a dog." Mahjong said on the other side, "Let's talk about something serious, the idea that Lu Xinchen is also a telepathic is still a bit valuable." Du Zhengyi, do you have any views on this point? ”
"Not yet." Du Zhengyi said.
After saying that, he found that Roach was staring at him.
"How?" He asked, slightly wary.
"Nothing." Roach muttered.
Guan Xinyue immediately found the right time to attack on the opposite side, "Instigate people!" If you have it, you can speak out loud, or you don't say it! ”
Roach's fire was immediately arched again, "Damn, why am I cowardly?" I'm just too lazy to say! In the past, Du Zhengyi, if you didn't say it, you won't say it, what is the point of hiding it now? Guan Xinyue and I are both homeless people now, so we can only follow you, can't we still treat us as our own? ”
After he finished speaking, there was no sound in the room, Guan Xinyue closed her mouth without righteousness, and Mahjong kept silent with a strange expression.
Luo Qi was angry and didn't want to look at Du Zhengyi, and he didn't want to look at the two bastards opposite, this feeling seemed to go back to the day he left the school with Du Zhengyi. That day, Du Zhengyi laughed at him for not even being able to rub a fireball, he felt that it was impossible to go to research with a bastard like Du Zhengyi. But in the end, Du Zhengyi still caught up with him, and he also got on Du Zhengyi's wild horse, and things never changed from then on.
Now he is sitting in a deserted ancient town with an unknown geographical location to think about this incident, if he hadn't gotten into Du Zhengyi's car that day, wouldn't all this have happened? But then he realized that mahjong's judgment should be objective, and he would sooner or later discover his ability, and the difference may just not be so drastic.
"I'm a lone mountain guard."
When Du Zhengyi said this sentence next to him, he was still reflecting on this stupidly, and he didn't react at all, and he didn't come back to his senses until the three of them stared at him together. He didn't expect Du Zheng to compromise at all, and stammered in shock, "What are the guards guarding?" ”
"It's not guarding anything," Du Zhengyi said, "Lonely Mountain Guard is just an honorary title." ”
Luo Qi's thinking was completely divided into two places, one side was thinking about the lonely mountain guard, and the other side was thinking that Du Zhengyi was actually a very soft-hearted person, which was a great weakness.
Guan Xinyue asked curiously on the other side, "Is it like the Knight of Merlin?" ”
"Wait," Roach said suddenly, "I really want to have a little impression of the Lone Mountain Guard." ”
"Did your dad say that?" Guan Xinyue asked him, "Your father should also be a very good mage, probably an upper-class person in your society." ”
"No," said Roach, "I know the Lonely Mountain, and everybody knows the story of the Temple of the Holy Mountain. Not far from Qionglin, the building in Qionglin is called a temple, which is just a metaphor, in fact, everyone knows that the real temple is a cave. ”
Mahjong and Du Zhengyi exchanged glances and said, "Everyone knows the Holy Mountain Temple, but not everyone knows that the Temple is a cave. Roach, did you classify some of Li Xu's memories into the knowledge division of the brain? ”
"Like," Roach muttered, meditating on it, the knowledge was almost forgotten by him, and he never dared to rummage through that memory afterwards, but it was there.
"You're not going to go black, are you?" Guan Xinyue looked at him carefully and said, in exchange for a "shhh" from mahjong.
"Guardian of the Lonely Mountain," Roach began to think, without any trace of Li Xu, as if it were his memory, he had learned in some book, heard in some gust of wind, "Guarding the eternal souls that exist in the temple of the Holy Mountain. ”
Mahjong took a breath, turned to Du Zhengyi, and looked at him steadily.
Du Zhengyi's expression became serious, "What else?" ”
"The nine highest Venerables in Qionglin are the legendary Jiuyao of the Holy Mountain Temple, the nine priests of the Holy Mountain, who are responsible for selecting the mages who are qualified for eternal life." Luo Qi said, he turned to Du Zhengyi and looked at him in surprise, "Isn't it a legend?" Is there really a lonely mountain guard? ”
