I. Chapter 41
After a while, Yue Zhuo walked out of the house again, still holding a long sword with a cold light in his hand, which was Li Mengru's saber, only to see him slowly walk in front of Li Changfeng and hand it out.
Under everyone's gaze, Li Changfeng took the sword and said in a low voice, "Then thank you Elder Yue." β
Yue Zhuo's face was expressionless, he took a deep breath, as if he was brewing something, he was silent for a moment, and said, "I saw that Fan'er was injured before, and I was anxious, so I made a move on you, it was my ......"
Li Changfeng waved his hand and interrupted: "Where did Elder Yue say, Ru'er is also pampered and difficult to discipline, you and I are both parents, so I naturally understand." β
Yue Zhuo breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "Elder Li is willing to give up this rare opportunity in that mountain and river hall, and I am ashamed of this bearing. But I have no complaints about this matter, and I should give you a long memory!"
Li Changfeng looked at Yue Zhuo, as if he had returned to the time when he first arrived at the villa, when Yue Zhuo was kind to people at that time, when did he become like this, Li Changfeng couldn't remember, but he clearly remembered that time had passed, and more than ten years had passed......
At this time, Yu Xinshuang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, stood up and said, "Owner, elders, since the matter is over, the juniors should also leave." β
Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment and said, "Is it so fast?"
"There are other things for the juniors. β
As she spoke, she took out two jade pendants and handed them over, "You can let Senior Brother Jiang and Senior Sister Li rest for two days and go to Wutong City on their own." β
Li Changfeng hesitated for a moment, and then slowly took the jade pendant.
Yu Xinshuang smiled indifferently and said to everyone: "Then the juniors will go first, I hope you seniors, take care of your health." She paused, her face seemed to be slightly red, she looked at Li Changfeng, and said softly: "And Aunt Chen." β
Li Changfeng was slightly surprised, and then said, "Miss Yu walks slowly." β
She saluted everyone, and with a swipe of her hand, she disappeared into the sky with a light blue and clear light.
After a long time, Wang Qingshan looked at the sky, and then let out a long sigh and sighed: "It's finally over." β
Everyone sighed for a long time, chatted a few more words, and then said goodbye and went back, leaving only Yue Zhuo alone in Xiao Suo's courtyard.
He let out a long sigh, stood for a long time, shook his head with a wry smile, and slowly walked into the house behind him.
Yue Bufan, who was lying on the bed, heard the movement, hurriedly turned his head and said, "Dad, what to do with that scene?"
Yue Zhuo's face froze, and he said, "This matter is over, and there are ......" Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and then urged: "You don't want to go to Wutong City either!"
"What!"
"Hiss......" Yue Bufan suddenly wanted to get up, but suddenly there was a heart-piercing pain in his back, so he had to lie down again, his eyes widened, and he said angrily: "I won, why don't you let me go!"
Yue Zhuo looked at his son's appearance, and suddenly his heart softened, and his tone became much lighter: "Because your heart is unstable, after everyone's discussion, so this time you will ......"
"Didn't Yu Shuang say it!"
Yue Zhuo didn't finish speaking, but he was interrupted by Yue Bufan's sharp voice, and he couldn't help but get angry again, and shouted angrily: "As a person in the righteous path, you must have the heart to help the world, do you!"
Yue Bufan was suddenly stunned, and then his face was full of incredulity, and his face was even a little distorted.
Yue Zhuo snorted coldly, and said: "I missed your mother early, so I have been conniving at you, over the years, not only made me fall into an arrogant and unreasonable reputation, but also harmed you, becoming what you are now!"
Yue Bufan laughed twice, as if he had heard something funny, and said, "What's wrong with me? Why don't I have the heart to help the world?"
"You still don't repent!"
Yue Zhuo's face was ugly, and he shouted: "Why are you being beaten today, it's all your own consequences! Killing your fellow disciples and being arrogant, what qualifications do you have to be worthy of the word righteous path!"
"Are you still my father? Why, in your eyes, am I so unbearable!"
Yue Bufan stared at Yue Zhuo, still unable to believe that these words came out of his mouth.
I saw Yue Zhuo close his eyes, take a deep breath, and be silent for a long time before he said softly: "What I said, you can think about it again." Then he sighed and turned away.
Yue Bufan suddenly seemed to have lost all his strength, his head was lowered, thinking of the cold woman who had never looked at him squarely, but his hands were clutching the futon.
......
When Li Changfeng returned to the Heart Cultivation Palace, he came directly to Li Mengru's room, and at this time, Jiang Ming and Chen Zhiyi were both staying in front of the bed and talking softly to Li Mengru who woke up.
When Jiang Ming saw Master, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Master." β
After a series of things, all Li Changfeng's worries disappeared, and he showed a rare smile at Jiang Ming, and said, "Sit down." β
Looking at the gentle master, he was full of thoughts, on the one hand, he was committed to his senior sister, and on the other hand, he was the expectation of the master and his wife, and the two thoughts kept entanglement in his heart.
"Dad, you're here. β
Hearing this weak shout, Li Changfeng stepped forward lightly and said, "Ru'er, how do you feel when you wake up?"
"I'm fine, much better. β
Li Mengru leaned on the head of the bed, although her pretty face was white, she already had a slight flush, and she didn't see her naughty appearance on weekdays, just sitting quietly, delicate and distressing.
"It's okay. β
Li Changfeng didn't know what he was feeling in his heart, so he was silent for a moment before putting the long sword in his hand on the table.
Li Mengru rolled her eyes, stretched out her head, and asked softly, "Dad, do you take the sword from ...... Pulled it out of him, huh?"
Li Changfeng glanced at her, "Yue Zhuo gave it back to me." β
Chen Zhiyi, who looked slightly puzzled, turned his head and said leisurely: "That Yue Zhuo is the most protective of his shortcomings, how can he return it to you easily, is he embarrassed for you?"
Speaking of this, Li Mengru suddenly looked indignant and said, "I heard from my junior brother that you are still fighting with Yue Zhuo, and when I get better, I must go to him to praise him!"
Li Changfeng's face sank, and he reprimanded lightly: "Can't you be honest?
"Ru'er just woke up, who are you angry at!"
I saw Chen Zhiyi eyebrows lightly locked, staring at Li Changfeng with a little anger.
"You ......"
Li Changfeng suddenly suffocated, feeling powerless.
After a while, he took a deep breath before saying, "Yue Zhuo took the initiative to return it to me." β
As he spoke, he paused, took out two delicate jade pendants from his arms, and said, "Not only that, but Yue Zhuo is willing to give up the opportunity to go to Wutong City." β
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Ming raised his head instantly, and something was faintly beating in his heart, but he couldn't believe it, so he just stared blankly at the two white and flawless jade pendants.
Li Mengru was stunned for a long time, and said in surprise: "Really?" As soon as she finished speaking, she turned into a disdainful look again, and said, "How could a person like Yue Zhuo be willing to give up for the sake of his son everywhere?"
Chen Zhiyi also relieved himself, and said softly: "Yes, Changfeng, did you make any deal with Yue Zhuo?"
Looking at the two of them who were full of questions, Li Changfeng was irritable, handed the jade pendant to Jiang Ming, and said, "Elder Yue is not as unbearable as you think. β
Everyone was taken aback, but at this time, Chen Zhiyi suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "The jade pendant is in your hand, what about Miss Yu?"
"She's gone. β
"Huh?" Chen Zhiyi suddenly gloomed, and after a while, he said faintly: "Why did you leave without saying a word." β
Li Changfeng chuckled lightly, and then said, "But when Miss Yu left, she specially asked me to tell you to take care of your body." β
"Really?"
Li Changfeng glanced at him, didn't answer, and turned to look at Jiang Ming: "Two days later, Ru'er will go to Wutong City with you." β
Speaking of this, a trace of displeasure suddenly flashed on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "Now, what are you not satisfied with?"
Jiang Ming looked at the two jade pendants in his hand in a daze, and the faint coolness coming from the palm of his hand was telling him that all this was true, and the bitterness buried deep in his heart was all replaced by joy at the moment, and after a while, he said heavily: "Disciple, thank you Master." β
Li Changfeng snorted coldly, and strode out of the door, but the corners of his mouth were with a smile that could not be hidden.
Jiang Ming glanced at Li Changfeng's back, his cold words were better than all the warm words.
Jiang Ming smiled happily, then walked to the bed and handed a jade pendant to Li Mengru.
Li Mengru took the jade pendant and played with it curiously, only to see that the luster on it was flowing, and she looked at it over and over for a long time.
"Why is there only one leaf on it?"
"This is a sycamore leaf. Chen Zhiyi said with a smile: "Wutong City is full of plane trees, which has naturally become the symbol of Wutong City." β
"Oh. Li Mengru lost interest, so she casually threw the jade pendant aside.
Chen Zhiyi sighed: "This Wutong City Lord is also an infatuated lover, I heard that the woman he likes loves Wutong, so there are now plane trees all over the city, which is really affectionate." β
Jiang Ming was a little surprised, and couldn't help but be curious, and said: "Senior Niang, the Lord of Cloud City is the leader of the righteous path, admired by the world, and is a first-class figure in the world, so he must be with that woman." β
"You know a lot!"
Suddenly, Li Mengru glanced at Jiang Ming and said leisurely: "If a person as big as the Cloud City Lord, if they were really together, it would have become a good story long ago, and it would have been widely spread by the world, have you ever heard of it?"
Jiang Ming's expression was remarkable, and he said, "No." β
Li Mengru raised her eyebrows, looking quite proud, and said: "And the sycamore tree is mostly lovesick and sorrowful, I guess it is because the cloud city lord failed to get what he wanted, and the sycamore tree is also his affection." β
Chen Zhiyi smiled: "Yes, so the Lord of Cloud City suffers from lovesickness, and for so many years, the outside world has been rumored that he is trapped by love and lives alone." β
Hearing that he had guessed correctly, Li Mengru glanced at Jiang Ming contemptuously and said, "Senior brother, you are really stupid!"
Jiang Ming's face turned red, and he couldn't speak, and after a while, he forced himself to say, "But ..... But the Cloud City Lord is such a powerful character, and being liked by him is a great blessing, so how can he not be willing?"
Li Mengru was stunned, and then couldn't help but laugh again, as if she had heard a big joke.
This smile seems to be suffocating, and it seems to be intoxicating.
Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment, looking at her happy smile, but he couldn't afford to be a little annoyed, and asked stupidly, "What are you laughing at?"
I saw Li Mengru looking at him with a smile, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, she turned around his face a few times, and said slowly: "Senior brother, you are really stupid!"
Jiang Ming was embarrassed under her gaze, and when he thought that Shi Niang was still beside him, his face suddenly had a fever, so he snorted lightly and turned his head away angrily.
"What do you two know?"
Chen Zhiyi glanced at Li Mengru, then slowly raised his head and sighed:
"Affection is always ruthless and bitter ....."
