Volume II 87, Sleepless Night
Imperial City Chapter 08
87. Sleepless night
In the dead of night, Xingliuyun lay in bed, thinking about the scene in the grocery store during the day, still foggy and puzzled.
Then he took out the black bead again, looked at it for a long time, and then put it back away.
Although Xingliuyun was ninety percent sure that this black bead was the Shark Bead Neidan, Xingliuyun did not feel any energy fluctuations from it, and only vaguely felt a trace of mystery surrounding it.
Perhaps that's why it's been preserved to this day.
But what Xingliuyun did was a matter of his life, and he couldn't be careless, and Xingliuyun couldn't afford this accident. He had to think carefully and minimize the risks.
Xingliuyun is worried about Shark Zhu Neidan here, and An Meng is not calm because of the marriage contract.
Outside the room in the attic of the water side, Wen Ya sat on a small stool, her face full of sorrow. She's been here all afternoon.
A few times pacing back and forth, a few times of worry and confusion.
Just for An Dream on the other side of the door.
At noon, after Wen Ya said Liuyun's name, An Meng behaved very normally, her emotions and movements were very flat, as if the marriage contract had nothing to do with her, it was really normal...... Not quite normal.
Let's ask, when a person suddenly hears that he has a marriage contract, should this be his expression?
It shouldn't be.
Not to mention making a lot of noise, you have to be full of curiosity, after all, you have to be a lifelong event. But what is Anmeng's performance?
He said a soft "oh" with an expressionless face, then got up, went out, walked to the next door, and closed the door again.
With intuition, Wen Ya felt that An Meng's bland reaction was very abnormal, so she followed, wandering back and forth outside the door next door.
During this period, Wen Ya tried various methods, and even used the elder's summons, but she couldn't get An Meng to open the door, as if she was sinking into the sea, and there was no news at all. If she hadn't been able to sense An Meng's breath all the time, Wen Ya might have thought that she had run away from marriage.
In this way, Wen Ya waited outside this door for an afternoon, from wandering back and forth to watching all the time, and from watching all the time to sitting on the bench.
Now, just stay here, and don't do any more useless work, anyway, you can't call it out.
Wen Ya looked at the gradually falling night, she didn't know what to feel in her heart, and turned her head to look at the dim room, "I thought I didn't care much, but I locked myself up all afternoon." ”
Looking at this day, it was not early, and the four elders seemed to be discussing matters with the Demon Mi Emperor Altar about the Azure Festival, and they did not come back, for fear that they would not be able to count on it.
An Meng sealed the door with spiritual power, and Wen Ya couldn't force it open, it was getting late, and he said, "I'm going to rest, and when I'm hungry, I'll go to the kitchen to find something to eat, no matter what you are." Then he went back to his room to rest.
Wen Ya thought, such a big person, how could she not hurt herself. It's a sin to waste half a day.
Although she thought so, Wen Ya lay on the bed and tossed and turned, but she couldn't sleep, she didn't care about what she said, but she couldn't let go of it in her heart.
If the heart is not quiet, how can you sleep?
This night, someone is destined to have insomnia, and there is more than one.
On the second day, when the morning sun sprinkled the earth again, the person who had just fallen asleep ushered in a new day with a somewhat tired body.
Xingliuyun didn't sleep long last night, and he spent a long time studying the black bead.
Fortunately, it was a monk, with strong physical fitness, and after getting up, he ran a few rounds of mental methods, relieved his fatigue, and it was almost there.
As soon as I had breakfast, I saw the figure of Yu Liufeng.
"Big brother is here. Xingliuyun greeted warmly.
"I heard that yesterday the streamer and the flow core pulled you to walk around the Jingze District for a long time,. After Yu Liufeng sat down, he said this first.
"Well, kid, no, it's the result of that half a day. Xingliuyun pointed to the courtyard, which had changed dramatically.
"The two of them are usually a little strict, this is touching you, so I took the opportunity to be presumptuous. "The courtyard has changed, Yu Liufeng has already seen it all the way, and this is not what he is referring to.
Hearing this, Xing Liuyun suddenly realized, no wonder the two of them looked like yesterday, it turned out that they had not bought it for a long time, and then smiled again, thinking that what they did yesterday was all acquiesced by his brother. Otherwise, knowing their character, how could they throw Xingliuyun to them.
"Don't worry, I'm also their second brother. After thinking about it, Xingliuyun replied.
This arrangement is very good, it not only satisfies the careful thinking of Yu Liuguang and Yu Liuxin, but also quickly closes the relationship between Xingliuyun and them, and also allows Xingliuyun to integrate into the imperial altar faster. Xingliuyun knows that his brother is attentive.
Hearing this, Yu Liufeng also smiled with relief, and then changed the topic, "The matter you entrusted with it, because it is located in a remote area and has been a long time ago, it is a little troublesome to investigate, and it will take some time." ”
"It's important to get down to business, that's it, take your time, don't be in a hurry. "It was a whim, and it was really not easy to investigate, and the difficulty was not only that it was a long time ago, but also that it was too small, and it was hard to say whether it was recorded.
Although it is said that "from the monk to the monk asking, down to the parents' short", this "parent's short" is not of the nature of the score, and it is exhaustive, which is certainly unrealistic.
It's like what happened to a certain peasant household in a certain county, a certain town, and a certain village on a certain year, month, and day, and this kind of record is really difficult for some strong people, and people are not idle and have nothing to do.
But the point is, what Xingliuyun entrusted, to a certain extent, is still a similar thing, so Yuliufeng only said "it will take some time", rather than being directly rejected. Xingliuyun is already very satisfied.
There is still hope in the end.
"The matter of the Azure Festival, is it still going well?" Xing Liuyun thought about how he was also a nominal prince, and he should still care about this event.
"The event is a co-existence of the four clans, there is no obstacle, but there are some changes this time, so it is a little messy, and it will be dealt with. ”
"Big brother wants to participate?"
"No, the rules of the festival only allow monks under the age of 23 to participate, and I am just one year old. Speaking of this, Yu Liufeng inevitably has some regrets, he just showed his face last time, and he didn't get any rankings, and this session 5 years later, he is no longer eligible to participate, and it can only be said that he was born at the wrong time.
Although the Blue Festival is called a grand event, it is not known to everyone in the Blue Land, and most of the people who are more aware of the matters here are the elders of various sects and those of appropriate age.
Like Xingliuyun, who was only a little more than 12 years old 5 years ago, and was in a remote place, Jinming Intermediate Academy was even more unclear about this grand event.
At this time, listening to this rule, I am full of curiosity.
According to the current situation, this session, Xingliuyun will not be able to catch up, 5 years later, he will be 22 years old, if the problem of cultivation is solved smoothly, there is still some hope.
Yu Liufeng saw that Xingliuyun was interested in the event, and when there was nothing to do, he told him that although he couldn't participate, it was always good to know more about this event.
Time flew by in this chatter, and it didn't stop until the wind had to leave. Listening to Yu Liufeng's description of the blue event, Xingliuyun yearned for it more and more.
Young people, who doesn't have a competitive heart?
If it weren't actually allowed, Xingliuyun would also want to fight.
"By the way, the referees have always been served by people from Canglan Academy, and when the time comes, a few of your senior brothers from Canglan Academy of Literature should also come over, and you can get together. ”
At the end of the day, Yu Liufeng left.
This news is good news for Xingliuyun.
He hadn't seen a few of the senior brothers in the Faculty of Arts since the last time he said goodbye, and he didn't know what happened to them now. Most of the time, I am still immersed in the books, occasionally annoyed by the monotony of life.
Xingliuyun misses them very much. It was a good time.
Also, how are you doing now? After more than half a year, we should be able to meet again at the event.
Under the illumination of the morning sun, the tender fragrance of new plants and trees lingers, and the flowing clouds look far away towards the north, thinking far away.
