Chapter 173: Set fire to the garden

() The Thousand Spirit Fruit is almost ripe.

These two days are particularly critical.

Since Xie Liubin and the others contracted the Thousand Spirit Fruit of this garden, they were more concerned about the fruit trees and fruits than anyone else, and insisted on keeping vigil in the garden, for fear that someone would steal the fruit in the dead of night.

When everyone sat together to "share the spoils", Yu Shu said: "During the day, I have already counted a total of one thousand and seven fruits. Putting aside the odds, it's just enough for the five of us. ”

"That meansβ€”" Xie Liubin calculated, "There are only two hundred of them!" Are you sure you missed the count?"

He expressed doubts about Yu Shu's ability to count.

"I counted it several times, and Ling Gongzi also counted it several times, whether the fourth brother counted it or not, I don't know. However, I can be sure that Ling Gongzi and I are not wrong. Yu Shu looked at Xie Liubin, "If you don't believe it, you can count it yourself." ”

Xie Liubin was not willing to spend that effort.

An Shiqing said: "Forget my share." Give me a few big ones, and I'll have someone send them to the Sword Sect to my prince's brother. Divide the rest. ”

For her personally, the Thousand Spirit Fruits in this garden were not as attractive as those fire crystals in the secret passage of Sword Casting Villa.

After several people discussed, they unanimously decided to leave the fraction to An Shiqing's prince brother, and the remaining 1,000 fruits were divided equally between the four of them.

Everyone was chatting about how to dispose of the fruit after it arrived, and Jiang Ning'er and the maid Xing'er brought a few plates of snacks.

Zhu Zhihua felt sorry for her mother, "Mother, it's so late, what are you doing when you come out." Just ask Apricot to send something. ”

Jiang Ning'er's eyes are half-blind, and she can barely see the road by the light of the sky during the day, and at night, as long as she doesn't hold the lamp in front of her, she will be like a blind man.

Zhu Zhihua knew that her mother had the habit of getting up at night, so she caught many lantern demons and brought them back and kept them at home, so as to guide Jiang Ning'er at night. Every night, where there is a spiritual light flickering in Zhufu, it is the lamp spirit that is doing tricks.

The juniors got up and saluted Mrs. Zhu.

Most of them noticed that Mrs. Zhu had an eye disease, and they were all smart enough not to talk about other people's sore spots.

Jiang Ning'er sat down and listened to the juniors talk and laugh, and she was also deeply affected and extremely happy.

She just wondered, "Why didn't the county lord speak?"

Pei Yunyun and Ling Xiao rarely spoke, but she seemed to want to hear An Shiqing's voice more.

An Shiqing said: "I am making up the matter of wishing the sect master and his wife in my mind. If there is no special opportunity for Mrs. and Zhu Sect Master to form a relationship, I wish the Sect Master a weaker temperament than Qing Shui, but I am afraid that he is still a single dog now. ”

"It's... What is brain supplement? A single dog is again..."Jiang Ning'er was a little confused.

Zhu Zhihua said: "Mother, you don't care what the county lord says, as long as you can understand what she said." In her mouth, she can always pop out words that make people scratch their heads. If you have to dig deeper one by one, it will exhaust you. ”

Zhu Zhihua turned to look at An Shiqing, "There are some things that my mother is embarrassed to say." I'm thick-skinned, I can say. My mother's family was originally the cousin of Sect Master Jiang, and it was still the kind of relationship that couldn't be beaten by eight poles. Later, he learned that my mother and my father were close, so he tried his best to match them, in order to coerce my mother, not only pinched the lives of my grandfather and grandmother in his hands, but also recognized my mother as his own sister, and gave my mother a righteous and bright identity. ”

Hearing this, Yu Shu felt unhappy in his heart: "Crazy! How can Sect Master Jiang be such a person!"

Jiang Ning'er opened her mouth several times to explain, but she didn't have the fast mouth of a few juniors.

Zhu Zhihua snorted, "Sect Master Jiang's ambition is great. Back then, he just wanted to use my mother to marry into the Zhu family, so that he could control the Zhu family. Did he think that if he climbed this family, the Zhu family would be used by him? He never expected that although my father agreed to this family business, he did not personally go to greet him on the day he got married. Sect Master Jiang couldn't get off the stage, and he simply didn't go to see off his relatives. That's how my mother married to Zhu's by herself. At that time, my mother was not often laughed at. It wasn't until she and my dad had me that they shut up the people who laughed at her. ”

Jiang Ning'er patted Zhu Zhihua and deliberately scolded him with a straight face: "Nonsense!"

"I didn't say nonsense!" Zhu Zhihua was confident, "If these words are not said, some people really think that the relationship between our Zhu clan and the Jiang clan is very good!"

When he was talking about certain people, he deliberately glanced at An Shiqing.

Obviously, he said this specifically to certain people.

It was because of the relationship between the Jiang family that An Shiqing was quite wary of the Zhu family.

Jiang Ning'er is not Sect Master Jiang's cousin, nor is she a sister. Her humility was brought out from the Jiang family.

Thinking about it, she once had a bad time in the Jiang family.

Xie Liubin is a straightforward person, he said to Zhu Zhihua while eating the snacks brought by Jiang Ning'er: "Listening to you say this, the relationship between your mother and your father is not very good. Marriage is really based on feelings, and if it is mixed with intrigues and tricks, it is scary to think about. No one wants the people around them to become a murder weapon that kills them in the future. ”

He said it realistically and cruelly, which annoyed Zhu Zhihua:

"What nonsense are you talking about! Qianlingguo, you still don't want it!"

Seeing that her son was about to have a seizure, Jiang Ning'er grabbed him and calmed down his emotions.

"Yes, yes. I have. Jiang Ning'er hurriedly said, "I have feelings for the sect master, and I will never do anything to hurt him." Xie Xiaogongzi, if you really like someone, you can understand that you would rather hurt yourself than hurt the other party. Back then, when I first met the Sect Master in Qianquan Mountain, I was sure of this intention..."

"Oh, oh, oh, isn't this the legendary love at first sight!" An Shiqing and the friends around him were excited, and waited for Jiang Ning'er to continue.

Zhu Zhihua also seems to have heard about this from her mother for the first time, "My mother fell in love with my father at first sight? ”

"Silly boy. Jiang Ning'er smiled and said, "If my mother has no affection for your father, and my mother has suffered so many insults back then, no matter how much she despises herself, even if she goes to seek death, she will not willingly marry herself here." ”

Zhu Zhihua suddenly felt that what her mother said was reasonable.

Recalling that beautiful past, Jiang Ning'er's face showed a girlish demeanor.

She sat there with peach blossoms on her face, a little shy, and became a beautiful beauty.

She said slowly: "Qianquan Mountain is a holy place for healing, and practicing in the spiritual spring can get twice the result with half the effort. That night, I went to Qianquan Mountain. I thought that Qianquan Mountain would be empty in the middle of the night... But I met the sect master who was cultivating in the spiritual spring..."

Practicing in a spiritual spring?

Doesn't that mean that Jiang Ning'er not only made up her mind at that glance back then, but also showed the Sect Master Zhu the light!!

Zhu Zhihua was a little confused, "Mother, it's you who saw Dad... But how did I hear that my father saw youβ€”"

It is rumored that the sect master Zhu was rude to the Jiang family first, and only under the persecution of the Jiang family, out of a responsible attitude, did the Jiang family woman be included in the Zhu Mansion.

Jiang Ning'er educated her son: "Of course it's not like this, people outside are talking nonsense." Mother doesn't want you not to listen to people's nonsense. What the truth is, of course, it is only believed that the person concerned said it himself. ”

Zhu Zhihua pleaded: "You haven't told me again, and my father is like that, don't say anything." How would I know? ”

"Then listen to my mother today-" Jiang Ning'er was extremely happy today, and did not hesitate to share her good memories with the juniors, "You also know your father's temperament, although he was the sect master of the Zhu clan and the city lord of Yanyang City at that time, he was a hands-off shopkeeper..."

Zhu Zhihua couldn't help but complain: "He is also a hands-off shopkeeper now!"

Jiang Ning'er glanced at him with disgust, and said again: "Back then, on Qianquan Mountain, I didn't know his identity, and I didn't disturb him, but when I was leaving, I quietly took away his mask. ”

Zhu Zhihua opened her eyes wide and looked at her mother in horror: "Then my father shouldn't go crazy!!"

Jiang Ning'er couldn't help laughing: "Mother brought the mask back, your grandparents thought that what I brought back was a token of love between me and whom." The second elder forced his mother to confess, and when his mother was in a hurry, he said that he met your father in Qianquan Mountain, but his mother was not too embarrassed to say it too specifically, so it caused a misunderstanding for the second elder - the second elder mistakenly thought that his mother was seen by your father when she was practicing in the spiritual spring.

Your grandfather took the so-called token of love to ask Sect Master Jiang to be the master. Sect Master Jiang recognized that the mask belonged to your father, and began to calculate. When your father came to the Jiang clan to look for me in order to find a mask, Sect Master Jiang hid me. Because at that time, there was a terrible rumor - it was rumored that the people who had seen the face of the sect master Zhu were all dead. Sect Master Jiang was worried that I would be killed by your father, so he not only hid me, but also mentioned this family to your father. Unexpectedly, your father actually agreed.

At that time, I thought that your father married me just to kill me. I was originally planning to seek death, thinking that marrying is death, and not marrying is death, so it is better to marry first. After I started, your father treated me with courtesy, and then I had you. I feel that I must have done great good things in my last life, and I will marry someone as good as your father and a son like you in this life. ”

Seeing her mother's complacent appearance as if she had picked up a big bargain, Zhu Zhihua was happy in her heart, but her mouth was full of disgust for the good man in her mouth:

"Where is he good! He doesn't look like a husband or a father, he spends more time with his drinking friends than with you and me! Marry you home, and after the inheritance is over, he will treat you as an ornament, how can such an irresponsible man be born in the world!"

"Turnip greens, each with his own love. Madame likes to wish the sect master this number, what can you do. An Shiqing didn't think Jiang Ning'er had a problem with her vision. "I heard that there are no more than five people in this world who have seen the true face of the Sect Master. What does this Sect Master look like, is it so unsightly?"

The emotions of Jiang Ning'er and Zhu Zhihua's mother and son suddenly became a little unnatural.

As soon as Xie Liubin opened his mouth, he interrupted this strange change: "Is it particularly ugly, or is it particularly special and good-looking?"

If it wasn't, then he couldn't think of any other reason.

Zhu Zhihua said in an indecent narcissist: "My father's appearance is naturally shocking, otherwise where would I be born to be the most handsome boy in the world!"

"Please, wake up, okay!" Xie Liubin pointed at himself with a thumbs up, "The most handsome in the world is here, okay!"

"Go, go!" Yu Shu is also quite confident in his appearance, "I haven't spoken yet, what's the matter with you!"

"I'm embarrassed to say that I am the most handsome in the world, look at your eyes, are you a little smaller than me!"

"What's the matter, your eyes are small, how big do you think you can be, with big eyes and a small nose, and a long and disabled appearance, embarrassed to call yourself the first in the world?"

"You, you, youβ€”"

In order to compete for fame, the three of them found fault with each other's appearance, making the people next to them very happy.

At this moment, Pei Yunsun suddenly pressed the saber in his hand and looked vigilantly at the small gate of the orchard.

Ling Xiao was obviously aware of it.

During the day, if it weren't for the reminders of the disciples of the Zhu clan, they said that every few days when the Thousand Spirit Fruit was harvested, there would be thieves in the orchard, and they would not stay here at night, guarding their fruits.

I want to steal fruit from them, dream!

The thief who sneaked into the orchard was so bold that he treated the people in the orchard as if they were nothing, raised his hand to cast a spell, and a big fireball came out.

Yu Shu shouted: "Not good!"

Xie Liubin also shouted: "That man is not here to steal the fruit, but to set fire to the garden!"

The only remaining Thousand Spirit Fruit Trees in the world are all in Zhu's garden, and if this fire burns down, it will really be gone.

- There is no more thousand spirit fruit trees in the world.

Several men grabbed their swords and flew forward to stop the thief.

Ling Xiao moved quickly, setting up an ice wall to block the fireball.

Seeing that the crisis was resolved, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

When the thief saw that he had not succeeded, he pulled his legs and ran.

Pei Yunyun flew over the ice wall and landed in front of the small gate of the orchard, blocking the man's escape path.

"How dare you do evil in front of this young master! I want to see who is so bold!"

The thief was dressed in black and wore a hat on top of a black coat.

Zhu Zhihua went over and tore off the thief's hat, revealing the thief's true face.

It was Jiang Ling'er!

"Cousin!?" Zhu Zhihua's eyes were full of disbelief.

Jiang Ling'er actually wanted to set fire to the orchard!!

When the matter was revealed, Jiang Ling'er's heart was empty for a while, and then she put on a righteous appearance.

"It's me! What can you do with me!" She didn't regret it at all, and blamed all the faults on Zhu Zhihua's head, "I blame you! I told you a long time ago that I wanted you to leave me some Thousand Spirit Fruits for my father! You... You actually gave all the Thousand Spirit Fruits to these outsiders!"

Jiang Ling'er angrily pointed at Xie Liubin and them.

Zhu Zhihua's face turned cold at some point, "Jiang Ling'er, no matter how you messed around before, I made you ignorant." It's me who underestimated you, you're simply willful and reckless, and it's hard to change your dead nature! It's not yours, you want it. If you don't come, you will rob it! If you can't grab it, you will destroy it! Yun'er's cousin's Xuanxuan post, isn't that how you got it!"
