Chapter 5: The Truth of the Scroll

The autumn wind gradually sent a chill, but the bustle in the tavern never dissipated, the storyteller was passionately finished the last dangerous scene of a chapter of the book, and when he picked up the shocking wood in his hand, he saw a blue-clothed young man at the door staring at him, and hurriedly finished the closing sentence and hurriedly walked to the private seat upstairs.

"That kid is clever, knowing that you will not let him go, he found a maid to sell paintings," Mr. Storyteller held a folding fan with beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers in one hand, touched the beard on his mouth with his index finger in the other, narrowed his slender fox-like eyes and smiled meaningfully, "Look at the appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince, I must have seen that 'beautiful man picture'." ”

When Ye Qingchen just left the right and wrong teahouse, he received news from Yi Pinxuan, saying that there was a maid of the Lin family who was caught selling paintings by the eldest lady of the Lin family on the spot, he hurriedly went to check the painting, the technique was really the same as the portrait sold by the short and thin boy that day, and it could even be said to be better, the water droplets dripping on the skin can be so delicate, it seems that he likes the person in the painting tightly, but what he never expected was that the man with the naked upper body in the painting turned out to be Ye Qingchen.

"Hey, I'll send you a message with a spell as soon as I know about it. Seeing his fierce eyes and a look of wanting to kill, the storyteller hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "Why, didn't you catch that kid when you went to the Lin Mansion?"

"Interesting. Ye Qingchen didn't want to drink tea, turned the tea cup in his hand, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and the answer was not a question.

"Senior brother, your weird smile makes my heart furious. Although it was only for a moment, he still saw it, and the storyteller sat down across from him, holding a face without wrinkles and speculating on his junior brother's dark thoughts, "Could it be, the kid who came to the tavern to sell paintings that day was the girl who came to Yipinxuan to sell paintings today?"

It stands to reason that the people who have seen his junior brother in the Lin Mansion except for the junior sister Lin Diexiu, there is only the kid who came to the tavern to sell paintings, and their people are also secretly monitoring with the portrait of the kid, and they have never seen this person out of the Lin Mansion, so there are only two possibilities, either this person is still hiding in the Lin Mansion, but the junior brother has not caught this person, then there is only the second possibility, and it is reasonable that the person is a woman disguised as a man.

Since he was forced by the three elders to come to the book, he is good at observing words and feelings, and he has a general understanding of these ups and downs, twists and turns, and there must be something wrong with the appearance of the junior brother.

"Hmm. Ye Qingchen's hand gently touched the lifelike carved two-winged snake on the scabbard, and those big clear eyes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, as if she had peeked at himself bathing in the lake, and his heart was unhappy, "It's a pity that I was a step late, and she ...... when I arrived at the Lin Mansion It's out of town. ”

"How come?" the storyteller tilted his head and thought with his hands against his pointed chin, "Based on the time you went out, you should have arrived long ago before the Lin Mansion sent someone to Yipinxuan to buy a painting again?"

"Ah Yi sneaked out of the Water Jie Tianshan Mountain, and it took me some effort. Ye Qingchen waved his blue sleeves, and finally picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip of tea, "When she went to the Lin Mansion, she had already been swept out of the mansion by the head of the Lin family. ”

"Ahem...... Sweeping the floor and leaving the house?" Mr. Storyteller choked on the tea, put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at the junior brother who was facing danger seriously, "Could it be that she is Lin ......?"

"Second Miss of the Lin family, Lin Weiran. ”

"Hahaha, the second miss of the Lin family is really a 'good plan', she even thought of using this method to take revenge on you, so she is not afraid that she will be ruined after the matter is revealed, and can only pin the hope of her life on you?"

"Gu Shanqiu, have you laughed enough?" Ye Qingchen frowned, clenched the tea cup in his hand, and his eyes were full of indifferent coldness, "Whether she is stupid or has other intentions is unknown, in short, even if she loses her reputation because of this, she will not want to covet the position of the crown princess of the Ruiguang Dynasty." ”

"Crown princess, in my opinion, she only found out your identity today," Gu Shan Qiu smoothed his stomach that was laughing wantonly, and then thought about it and took out the two picture scrolls next to the table, "By the way, the matter of portraits can be big or small, the boss of Yipinxuan said that she sold a total of three, these two I have already bought back for you, and the remaining one must have been taken back by you, you ...... There's really no intention of pursuing this?"

At that time, the head of the Lin family knelt on the ground as soon as he saw him, saying that Lin Weiran had severed relations with the Lin family, and begged him to make the matter smaller. Although the head of the Lin family kept saying that the culprit was Lin Weiran, in order to protect the innocence of the Lin family, he changed the law to let him blame all the blame on Lin Weiran, but in his heart, he was like a mirror, knowing that as a disciple of the Water Receiving Tianshan Mountain, although he would be embarrassed, he would definitely not kill his daughter's life for such a trivial matter.

"The Lin family has been refining pills for our Ruiguang Dynasty for generations, and they are only guarding a Fengzhu Villa conscientiously, and now that the head of the family is critically ill, I naturally will not let some people with bad intentions take the opportunity to stir up trouble. "It's really expected by the Lin family, he won't take her life. But the portrait business doesn't stop there. Ye Qingchen picked up the scabbard on the table and got up angrily, "Tell the third elder that you are ready to accept apprentices." ”

"Well, I didn't expect such a broken place to look good, this osmanthus candy is very sweet. On the street of the small county town, a girl in pink dragged a bag of osmanthus candy in her hand, and the bag of things hanging on her middle finger shook as she swayed from side to side, and the osmanthus candy in the other hand was stuffed into her mouth and then took another one, and she didn't forget to say to herself with the osmanthus candy in her mouth, "It would be better if you added some nuts to it, and that competition was very sweet as long as you thought about it." ”

From time to time, a fiery cloud has appeared in the western sky, and the magnificent warm colors are hung on the high and low distant mountains, and the girl in pink who has eaten the last osmanthus candy in her hand sits in front of a deserted mansion and sighs alone.

"I look like I'm eating marshmallows," the white clouds above reflected the changing colors of the sun, more striking than any of the great artists she had ever seen. However, the magnificent color still couldn't take away the sorrow of the girl in pink, and she slapped her palm on the stone steps, and the pain in her palm made her grit her teeth, "Huh...... No matter how I came to persuade her to cultivate immortals, my father, mother and Xixi all thought that I should go to that water to pick up the Tianshan Mountains to cultivate immortals, so I could earn a little money to buy some sweets to live a stable life, isn't he fragrant, why do I have to cultivate immortals. ”

The original owner died on the road of cultivating immortals, although she guessed that the murderer was Lin Dixiu with her inexplicable sixth sense, but she still couldn't get rid of the fact that cultivating immortals is a profession with a very dangerous factor.

"Instigation...... Instigation. ”

A crawling sound sounded in Lin Weiran's ears, and her modern thoughts, which she was used to living a stable life, suddenly pulled back to this unknown immortal cultivation dynasty, as if something had climbed up her hand, and the soft, cool touch made her suddenly retract her hand.

"Ah......" A small golden snake fluttered its wings under its head, seemingly extremely happy, and at this moment it was looking at the pink-clothed girl who was running away with a pair of golden pupils, tilting her head, puzzled.

"Soft body plus cold-blooded ......" But whenever there are cockroaches and mice, she is very calm, but the fear of this kind of animal has long been surging in every part of her body, nervously looking back to see that the other party did not catch up, the girl in pink covered her heart while running, "My little heart." ”

The girl in pink came to a corner, and was arranging her messy hair, when suddenly, something got around her feet, and she thought that she had accidentally wrapped herself in the rope that held the bamboo on the side, and was squatting down, when she suddenly fell to the ground in fear.

"It'...... How did you catch up?" she shook the corners of her mouth, quickly took the bamboo pole on the side, shook her hand and waved one end of the bamboo pole to her feet, the little golden snake wrapped around her feet obviously did not expect to be hit by a stick, and lowered her head just now in a dizzy manner, the girl in pink saw that the little golden snake wrapped around her feet finally let go of herself, and quickly got up and ran away.

"Hiss. The little golden snake somehow became as big as a human being, fluttered its fan-shaped wings under its head, and turned to the eyes of the girl in pink, a pair of golden pupils suddenly dilated, and spit out a letter and touched her cheek.

"Ah......" Although the girl in pink stopped her feet, she still screamed in fright when the golden letter touched her face, and was so frightened that she fainted when she met the four eyes of the suddenly larger flying golden snake.

The golden snake did not open its mouth to itself as the girl in pink thought before she fainted, but fluttered a pair of fan-shaped wings under her head, tilted her head, and looked at the girl in pink who fainted on the ground in puzzlement.

"Ah Yi, you get out of the way. ”

Ye Qingchen came with the sword and landed in front of the golden snake, and when he raised the scabbard in his hand and finally showed a turquoise hilt, the golden snake was in front of Lin Weiran.

"Ah Yi, you ran so fast, I thought you smelled the breath of demons. The sword in Ye Qingchen's hand disappeared again, leaving only a scabbard engraved with a double snake pattern, the golden snake excitedly spit out a letter to the pink-clothed woman on the ground, and then turned into a small snake and fell into his outstretched palm, "In addition to me, my father and my mother, the only one who can make Ah Yi protect like this is Lin Weiran, the second lady of the Lin family." ”

The Golden Mirror Snake of the Ruiguang Continent can sense the aura of demons, and is the best assistant for monks to subdue demons and subdue demons. When the prince of the Ruiguang Dynasty reaches the age of seven, he will go out to hunt the little demon to obtain the crown prince for himself. At the age of seven, he once brought Ah Yi to Fengzhu Villa to remove a little demon, and he was careless when he was ambushed by the little demon, and Ah Yi not only blocked the fatal blow in order to save him, but also led the little demon away in order to protect him.

When he woke up, he found the little demon's demon pill nearby, but Ah Yi was nowhere to be found. Even the father and mother felt that Ah Yi was dead, but he still searched in the Lin family's Fengting Villa for several days, just when he was discouraged, Ah Yi flew back to his palm, and he didn't have time to rejoice when he saw a little girl running behind him, looking at Ah Yi in his arms with some loss, smiled gently, and said, "Little golden snake, it turns out that you have a master." Then he turned and departed. To this day, he still remembers her figure, lonely and lonely.

"Hiss" The little golden snake looked up at its owner who threw itself to the ground in anger, shaking its head for some reason.

"She is your savior, Ah Yi, you can carry her back to the ancestral temple of Lin Mansion yourself. Ye Qingchen waved the sword in his hand, and the sword disappeared into the sky that was about to darken.
