Chapter 6: The Rats
Following.
With a cup of tea in his hand, he sat leisurely on the stone bench of a pavilion in the manor. Across from him sat a baby-faced girl, staring at him with her cheeks puffed out. Outside the pavilion, Han Zhu was teaching Xuanyuan Lingmeng the most basic method of breathing, so that she could smoothly adapt to the life of a monk and improve her cultivation as soon as possible after entering the Xiuzhen Sect.
"Have you seen enough?" Ye Qifeng turned his head to look at the baby-faced girl, her name is Tong Yan, and she is Xuanyuan Lingmeng's friend from childhood to adulthood.
"No!" Tong Yan said childishly.
As soon as she came to the manor today, she learned a thunderbolt news, that is, a man suddenly came to the manor and said that it was Xuanyuan Lingmeng's fiancé, and the latter actually admitted it, saying that it was a baby family ordered by his father Xuanyuan Ming, and let the man stay in the manor that night.
Tong Yan is a good person, and after learning the news, he has been pestering him, observing his every move, saying that he wants to check for his good sister.
"I really didn't expect that Reimu's fiancé would be a weirdo like you. Tong Yan muttered.
"What's weird?"
Ye Qifeng looked at herself, two arms and two legs, and there was no tail behind her buttocks, how could she become a weirdo in her eyes.
"How unlucky it is for normal people to raise crows. ”
Tong Yan pointed to the black crow on his shoulder and said, speaking in a quieter voice, like a black crow that was worried about disturbing the black crow that closed his eyes and recuperated. She was afraid of the crow's eyes, and she always felt cold and uncomfortable.
"That's just your subjective opinion, I'm a very well-behaved crow, and I have never caused me anything unlucky. Night Wind laughed.
"Cut, look at your face, and say that it didn't bring you anything unlucky. ”
Hearing this, Ye Qifeng touched his face, and secretly said that it was really that bad, although the injuries on his body were still faintly painful, he felt good, "I'm just a little tired recently, and my face is a little worse, which can't be relied on Xiaohei." ”
"You..."
Tong Yan still wanted to argue, but when she saw the black crow's eyes open, she was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped her mouth, and she didn't dare to say bad things about the black crow again.
She looks so cute that she can't help but laugh at night.
"Laugh at it. Tong Yan glared at him fiercely.
"Well, I did laugh at the fart. The night breeze quipped along her lines.
Tong Yan heard that he was scolding himself, and he was angry and stomped his feet, but under the gaze of the black crow, he could only go crazy by himself. Xuanyuan Lingmeng, who came over to rest, saw her like this, and said strangely: "Yanyan, what's wrong with you?"
"Reimu, he bullied me. Tong Yan seemed to have found a backer, pointing to the night wind and said.
"If you don't provoke him, how can he bully you. Xuanyuan Lingmeng knew her childish nature, and pursed her lips and smiled. She recovered very well, her appearance was quiet and beautiful, her personality was gentle like water, her eyes were bright, she was like a shock, and her long-term frailty also added a bit of morbid beauty to her, like a delicate flower in the water, and she was a classical beauty.
"Reimu, you and him are not married yet, why did your elbow crutch like this, and you still don't let people live. Tong Yan wanted to cry without tears.
"Okay, don't you shout, don't you say you're going shopping, you wait for me, I'll change my clothes and we'll go." Xuanyuan Lingmeng said like a child.
As soon as he heard about shopping, Tong Yan immediately became excited.
Xuanyuan Lingmeng was very worried during this period of illness, and naturally she was not in the mood to think about shopping. Now that Xuanyuan Lingmeng is ready, he must take her to accompany him for a day. Thinking about it, Tong Yan jumped up and urged Xuanyuan Lingmeng to take a bath and change clothes quickly, and when he left, he didn't forget to turn around and make a grimace at the night wind.
Night Wind shook his head with a smile, and said in his heart that this little girl is really cute.
"Mr. Night. After Xuanyuan Lingmeng left, Hanzhu suddenly walked over with a serious face and said, "You are Lingmeng's fiancé, there is something you should know." ”
"What?" Night Wind looked up at him.
"Reimu is about to enter the cultivation sect, I don't want you to delay her future. ”
"What's wrong with me?"
"Miss Reimu was resistant to this, and I could tell she didn't really want to go. ”
"If you don't want to go, you just have to go. ”
"But she had to go. ”
"Why is that?"
"It's a matter of life and death for Reimu. ”
"What, if you don't go, you'll die?"
Hanzhu finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Mr. Ye, I'm talking to you about a very important matter, can I ask you to be a little more serious?"
Ye Qifeng laughed for a while, and saw that Hanzhu was already trembling with anger, so he waved her hand and signaled her not to go, and said seriously: "Okay, you say, I'm listening." ”
Hanzhu looked at him helplessly, sighed and said quickly: "Three days ago, someone hired a killer from the Xiuwu League to assassinate Lingmeng, although Lingmeng survived, but the Xiuwu Alliance will not give up, they will definitely send killers again, and it will never end, only if Lingmeng enters a great sect of cultivation can he have a chance to save his life." ”
"And then?" asked Ye Qifeng, raising his eyebrows.
Hanzhu said: "Miss Lingmeng didn't know that she would be endlessly hunted down by the Xiuwu Alliance, so she didn't want to go to the Xiuzhen Sect. But I'm going to persuade her again today, and if I can't do it, I'll tell her the truth. But because of your appearance, I don't think she will ever think about going to the Xiuzhen Sect anymore, no matter what I say. ”
It's no wonder that after entering the Xiuzhen sect, it may be difficult to come back once in three or five years, and not everyone can endure the loneliness in the deep mountains and old forests.
This is also the reason why there are more Xiuzhen schools.
Compared with the various red tape and rules of the Xiuzhen sect, the Xiuzhen school is much freer, and like ordinary schools, there are winter and summer vacations every year.
It's just that there are many students in the Xiuzhen School, even if Xuanyuan Lingmeng is talented, but if she dies, no one cares.
The Xiuzhen sect is different, especially the big sect, which has always pursued the principle of noble essence and not too much for accepting disciples, and pays great attention to cultivating excellent disciples to inherit the Taoist system. And if the Xiuwu Alliance killed this excellent disciple, one can imagine what kind of crazy revenge they would suffer, for them, worldly money is not worth this price.
"Speaking of which, it's just because of the Xiuwu Alliance. It's not the Xiuwu League that Reimu has to worry about, it's them..."Ye Qifeng muttered as he looked at the tea in the cup and muttered to himself.
"What did you say, Mr. Night?" Hanzhu didn't hear him clearly.
"Nothing. Ye Qifeng raised his head, "Since Reimu doesn't want to go to the Cultivation Sect, there's no need to let her go." I can protect what the Xiuzhen Sect can protect, and I can protect what the Xiuzhen Sect can't. As for the Xiuwu League, it is a group of unsightly rats, who come to kill one by one, and they will not dare to show their heads again sooner or later. ”
His tone was so clear that it made Hanzhu feel a little cold in this August day.
