After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Wan Qiping is young and vigorous, Wan Qiping has been worried for several years, and his personality is much more restrained, after all, it is a matter of life and death, so he frequently instructed again and again, Wan Qiping understood and said: "Dad, if you are not at ease, you write by yourself." ”

"Sex is here again. ”

"Then you always sit and wait and see, don't point fingers, children can't be specialized. ”

"Okay, well, it turned out to be the father's fault. ”

Here Lang Ji entered the room and did not rest in bed, walked to the study, stood in front of the table, took out a piece of cooked rice paper made of the best green sandalwood, held the good purple Gui, engrossed in outlining the clear Lingji like water, speaking of painting, under the guidance of the desireless Zen master, good work figures, natural and smooth, delicate and fine, full of form and spirit, especially the power of point dyeing, but also has the ability to win the heavens, the finishing touch, for a portrait, Lang Ji in Anguo Temple almost every day must do homework, so the hand to capture, no longer talk. After a while, Lingji came alive, if it was in front of her, Lang Ji didn't dare to think too much, so she opened the door softly, looked around, waited for everyone to sleep, and left Wan Qi's mansion alone after a silence, ready to go out to find Lingji.

At this time, Su Xi, who lived in the Jade Pei Building, was heartbroken and couldn't sleep after hearing Mei Ji tell the truth, and she was looking for Ling Ji alone in the dark night.

Lingji walked alone in the north of Luoyang City, temporarily living in the barren place where there was no ghost in the poor mountains and bad waters, and there was not even a ghost, she found a cave, found some dry wood, folded it into thin branches and short strips, piled it up to make a fire for warmth, and then took off her coat and laid it on a large stone, and lay down to rest, but it was always difficult to sleep, and it was even more difficult to think about deep sleep. Chatting and other warm situations, the tender and watery Lingji's fragile heart is twitching endlessly, and the colic is unbearable, just because of the unhealable emotions and the great ambition of shouldering the heavy responsibility, the emotion is his own, the great cause is not his own, but the grand cause is far more important than his own feelings, and even his life is not his own. For so many years, she has endured all the injustice and punishment alone, without complaints, she believes that all this is the meaning of life, a smooth sailing life is absolutely boring and pale, only through the ups and downs, the choice of life and death can make her life colorful and unforgettable. All along, she never resisted, never ran away, bravely faced everything, even if she died because of it, she never hesitated, never afraid. She also believes in fate, it is not her own that she never touches, it is her own that she does not force nature to get close to her, everything is natural, and she is safe. Thinking like this, Lingji slowly entered the dream in her thoughts.

Su Xi on the street of Luoyang City was exhausted, and she was worried and had no intention of having dinner, she really didn't have more strength to walk at this moment, so she simply stopped looking, leaned back against the wall and sobbed, and the charm in the dark corner looked at it in her eyes, and she was really anxious and pitying, watching Su Xi faint with exhaustion and exhaustion, and carried her back to Yupeilou.

The night was getting darker and darker, so dark that he couldn't see anything, but Lang Ji didn't stop looking for Lingji's determination, he stopped and snuggled on a big tree, his hands crossed his chest for a while, and he kept rubbing his chin with his hands for a while.

From the guy's mouth, I learned that Lingji did buy some study utensils in Riyu, but after purchasing them, she left. Lang Ji had no choice but to run around in Xianglong Inn, Xingyun Inn and other places, just like this, the image of an inn and an inn, bent on finding Lingji's foothold, seeing time slide in front of him like a meteor, flowing between his fingers, Lingji has no news, really worried, but the time is not early, and he has to go back and make plans.

As soon as she entered the door, she lit the candlelight, but she frightened Langji, it turned out that it was Wan Qiyu who was sitting at the square table, her expression was very calm, a pair of deer eyes looked at Langji without squinting, Langji was really uncomfortable to see, I don't know what this look meant?

"Since you promised your father to entertain you, you must do everything you need to ensure everyone's safety before resting...... As he spoke, he walked up to Lang Yu's eyes, his eyes widened more and more, and he said in a weird manner: "I'm not afraid that demons and monsters will harass you, I'm afraid that you will run away." After speaking, his face changed again, and a picture of the face of the old man of Zhizhou appeared, and asked: "Tell me honestly, it's so late, where did you go?"

Naturally, if you can't confess things truthfully, you will bring disadvantage to yourself and Lingji, Lies and lies deceive: "The overall layout of your mansion, the garden attainments, the exquisite rooms, the abundance of small samples, the wonderful verandah, the feng shui design, etc., are all exquisite, so full of flowers, so much so that I am so happy, how can I live up to the attainments of people outside the world?"

Wan Qijue's expression of disbelief shook his head slightly twice before and after, and he chuckled: "The reason is good, but only ghosts believe it." ”

"Are you a ghost?" Lang Yu teased.

"Whether it's a ghost or not, you can tell if it's a ghost. ”

"Speak. ”

"The year before last, many flowers and plants were moved from the Western Regions, it seems that there is a Tianbao flower in the front yard, may I ask what color Brother Lang Yu is the flower?"

Lang Yu was asked, knowing that Wan Qian Jue was rude and willful, and he really lived up to his name, if he lost to her, he didn't open the door on his lips, and he wouldn't be laughed at when he passed it out, and he thought that fortunately there was a year when he accompanied the Zen master without desire to travel around the Western Regions, saw the demeanor of this flower, and learned the ability to plant and maintain, and said with a smile: "Gu Yu fifteen days, only ten days later, the breath is still cool, the cold has not disappeared, Tianbao flowers like high temperatures the most, before they can bloom, the girl does not understand the habits of Tianbao flowers, or deliberately make things difficult?" Before the words were finished, Wan Qiyu wanted to interject, but was robbed by Lang Yu and said: "I am also a seven-foot man below, with a head and a face, and he does things brightly and fairly, and he never expires as a little girl." If the girl is disgusted with Zaixia, she can tell the truth, and she doesn't have to provoke many times. ”

"You are a guest, and my father respects you very much, how can I make it difficult for you?"

From her words and deeds, Lang Yu could read a little ambiguous heart, but only chuckled a few times and said, "Dignity? Yes, it is dignity." If the girl is really bored with the following, she will never stay for long. ”

It's really amazing, I wanted to embarrass him, but I made myself uncomfortable, forget it, it's embarrassing to keep talking, but even if he is wise, it is inconvenient to pursue more, but there are still doubts in my heart, and I have to pretend to trust on the surface, and I will say slowly in the future, so I said: "Count you as knowledgeable." ”

"Shall I go, or shall I not go?"

"My daughter listens to her father. ”

"It's not early, and I'm really going to rest. If you're not tired, next door is Brother Rongquan's room, let him chat with you. As he spoke, he made a gesture of stretching out his hand to ask someone to leave, and when Wan Qijue saw it, he said with a bitter face: "I will definitely not let you go." After that, he left. Lang Yu sighed in his heart, and after freshening up, he lay on the bed and thought about it, for fear that he had missed something? At this moment, he had an idea, and thought about what he would do if he didn't want people to discover his whereabouts? Of course, it was hidden, and it was a place that no one knew, no one dared to go, and it was also a deserted place, and he couldn't think of where it was. Recently, I passed by a place, called Erfang, and heard rumors that the boss is a stinky old man, specially designed to provide information for outsiders, mainly to inquire about the recent loss or excess population in and outside the city, Erfang's regulation is not to deal with the government, do not ask the details of the comers, do not disclose duplicate information, and only talk about trading objects with VIPs. Thinking of this, I can only visit in person tomorrow. Lang Yu's face was a little relaxed, and he felt a little relieved, and then slowly fell asleep.

And Wan Qijue, who was angry, didn't dare to admit defeat, so he went to the vestibule, observed the Tianbao flowers for a while, and then sneaked into his father's study, looking for records about the flowers and plants in the Western Regions, studying deeply, and no longer being secretly mocked by Lang Yu in the future, and quietly went back to the room to read at night after getting a few books.

The next day, everyone was preparing to eat, but they didn't know where Lang Ji went, at this time Zhao Ying explained forward: "Childe, let the little one tell the alliance leader that he goes out to do something and doesn't have to wait for him to have breakfast." ”

"Did he say where he went?" asked Rong Quan, who was standing beside the alliance leader.

The little one didn't dare to ask, but he just talked about buying a few items at the market. ”

"In that case, let's eat first. ”

At this time, Ziyun was curious: "Sister Jue, why don't you eat breakfast?"

The maid standing aside replied, "Miss, I studied hard last night and slept late, so I ordered her not to wake her up until she was sleepy." ”

Helian Qing was surprised: "It's not that I don't like to read on weekdays, which one is this singing?"

"Leave breakfast for Miss. Wan Qiping said with concern.

"Yes. The maid replied.

"Rong Gongzi doesn't have to be careful, about the diet, there is often a meal without a meal, weird. Helian Qing said politely.

"It's just that this habit will affect the girl's maintenance. Rong Quan responded clearly.

"Thank you Gongzi for caring about the little girl, I must tell her this, so that she can change her bad habits. Okay, I wonder if today's meal will be delicious?"

Let's say, everyone dined quietly, and Rong Quan was not worried about Langji, so he had the heart to leave the house with Rong Bai to find Langji.

——

Su Xi of Yupeilou also woke up, had breakfast, his complexion improved, and he listened to Mei Ji's arrangement to wait for news here, and Mei Ji had already hidden outside Wan Qi Mansion in disguise, waiting for movement. At this time, he saw Wan Qiping going out to do errands, so he followed closely to investigate.

——

Erfang is located in the northwest of Luoyang City, located in the downtown area, mostly peddlers and pawns, where the small businessmen wandered in the past, Lang Ji asked for the address, paid two or fifty silver, and then entered the workshop, a small courtyard, less than the size of a bedroom, the objects are disorganized, the beams are covered with cobwebs, the earthen walls are uneven, the ground water accumulates into a small river, the smell is incomparable, there is no place to stand, at this time, an old man emerged from under the table, with a head and no face, less than three feet, frightened Lang Yu's heart, took a big step back, after careful observation, he sighed, Fortunately, there is no danger, but suddenly I can't accept such a description, the old man said: "The silver can be given completely?"

Originally, he wanted to exchange information for two silver or one object, but the things on Langji's body were affectionate and cherished, so he was completely reluctant to give up, so he had to pay snowflakes and silver, and he said calmly: "I have paid the gatekeeper fifty taels of silver." ”

"Good. Who are you looking for?"

Lang Yu handed the portrait to the old man, took it and looked at it carefully, and said, "Wait a minute." After speaking, he looked for information from the stacks of cloth notes on the table, but after a quarter of an hour, the old man said: "It was yesterday, and this woman has also been to Wan Qi's mansion, right?"

"Erya, it really lives up to its reputation. ”

"You want to ask her where she is, don't you?"

"Yes, please give me a direction or a location?"

"I'm afraid it will disappoint you, she went out of the city, only knowing that it is the north of the city, and the specific location is not clear. There are a lot of graves in the north of the city, only everyone goes to pay tribute during the Qingming Festival, no one dares to go on weekdays, and in recent years, there have been strange things, and no one is involved. ”

"There seems to be only one river and one mountain range there. ”

"Childe is very right. ”

Lang Yu wanted to have the same result as his own calculations, but after being confirmed by Er Fang, he was even more convinced, so he responded: "Thank you, I know where it is." ”

I really couldn't stand the smell in the house, and I was anxious to see Lingji, so after speaking, he quickly retreated, and the old man shouted: "Boy, come back when you have something, I believe we will meet again." ”

——

Here, Wan Qiping came to the Confucius Pavilion first, and the disciples entered after the report, and after being polite to each other, they told Ziqian, Zixu and Ziying who were present, the three of them were surprised, and Ziqian responded: "Are you sure it's a person?"

"Yes, the spirit messenger will confront our main halls and determine the five rounds. ”

"Is there any clear content for the competition?"

"It is not mentioned in the letter, and perhaps the two sides agreed together that day. ”

Zixu listened to it and said: "A little woman dares to provoke disputes in the rivers and lakes, and resolves the grievances of the rivers and lakes alone, such courage is really incomprehensible and admirable." ”

Zi Qian had this intention, looked at Zixu, and said to Wan Qiping: "That candidate can be decided?"

"Naturally, no. In short, the unitary time was discussed in the Juyi Hall. ”

"Well, be sure to be on time. ”

Wan Qianping spoke, from time to time to look at a few Ziying, just because of the humility and strict discipline in recent days, Ziying has not been to Wan Qian's mansion for a long time, and has not been close to Wan Qianping, so he is worried in his heart, so he can't help but look at the eyes, in order to express his miss, he said politely: "I have to go to other foyers in the next place, and retire first." With that, he departed.

And Ziying looked at Wan Qiping's departing back affectionately, and the two senior brothers on the side looked at Ziying's restless appearance, Zixu said: "Okay, there is no shadow, and it has only been a few days before the original form is revealed." While speaking, Zixu entered the back hall, Ziqian walked over and comforted: "You are deeply affectionate, senior brother feels a little puzzled, so how about agreeing to see you twice a month before you get married?"

"Really?"

"Senior brother does what he says, when has he never believed his words?"

"You say, I will do it, if you regret it, Confucius will not like it. ”

After hearing this, Ziying smiled quietly and happily, then took Ziqian's arm and said, "Senior brother, accompany me to sword practice, okay?"

"Okay, but you have to give Senior Brother a good pot of Xiangguanlou's jade liquor. ”

"Okay, but it's not from Xiangguan Building, it's from the Remnant Inn. Ziying said obediently.

"Don't go to the Remnant Inn again. ”

"I didn't go, it was the second senior brother who went. ”

"When the senior brother doesn't have long eyes. ”

Wan Qiping went to the foyers of Fengmanlou, Bafang Town, and Yuyi Hall one after another, and promised to arrive on time to discuss countermeasures. Although she was playing martial arts on weekdays, Lingji knew it in her heart, and she deliberately kept it, and only gave six points of strength, if she used it all, she really hadn't seen it, and besides, she didn't even know how to return to the sky, and even he couldn't dodge, the yin and yang soft sword had never been unsheathed, and she didn't know the mystery in the sword, maybe there would be a turnaround, but Wan Qiyun's Chengying Sword, Ziqian's Junzi Sword, Murong He's insinuation, and the gossip double whip of inches, Ouyang Yu's Tianzhu Chuying scimitar and so on, in terms of its power and strength, it is a good weapon to shock the rivers and lakes, she fights against so many masters by herself, even if it is one-on-one, how much strength does it take? While walking, he arrived at the residence and told Su Xi the truth, Su Xi said in a low tone: "I want to face it with her, I can't let her have an accident." ”

"It's a certainty, let's go together. "Mei Ji is to protect Ling Ji and monitor Ling Ji, the second is to see the benefits and disadvantages of the various entrance halls of the martial arts, and the third is to see the power of Ling Ji's Yin Yang Soft Sword, so he simply agreed, and then he informed the gray crow of the news and asked him to report the situation to the Spirit King.
