Chapter 6: Night Talk
The sunset on the horizon is about to completely set the mountain, the heaven and the earth are about to be shrouded by the night, the huge Yuejia Garden has been lit with lanterns and candles, and every other distance, there will be a kind of fire god pillar that is more than two feet thick and three feet high, and the garden is brightly lit.
Wanchun Garden, inside the Yuanling Palace.
Yue Changkong put the brush in his hand, held up a booklet and blew the ink on it, then closed it and threw it into a basket next to him, which was almost filled with a booklet of similar style.
At the end of the day, Yue Changkong stood up, came to the window, and looked at the distant mountains that had gradually disappeared into darkness in the distance, and his serious face showed a faint look of satisfaction.
As soon as the palm of his hand was flipped, a jade with a clear and green body appeared in his palm, and then he quickly flipped it and played with it.
This jade jade is warm and crystalline, and there is a faint trace of green light lingering inside it, and you can see that it is not ordinary at a glance. It is also true that this is a "rejuvenation jade" with wood attributes, which has the effect of replenishing qi and rejuvenating the spirit.
At the end of the day, Yue Changkong handled no less than seven or eight hundred pieces of music, issued thousands of orders, and the rest time in between did not exceed an hour, and he carefully read and considered too many civil, diplomatic, financial and other affairs, and then gave instructions one by one. Even with his condensed and perfect cultivation, his spirit was already a little tired. This Rejuvenation Jade can help him recover quickly.
However, although he was tired, his figure was still straight and upright, and the white shirt on his body was even more delicate and clean, crisp as ever, making the five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on it look majestic and mighty. The hair is neatly tied behind the head with a hairpin, and the whole person stands there, giving people a sense of simple and pure majesty.
Yue Changkong's sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, his nose is like a gall, these facial features are three points similar to Yue Chi, he looks very resolute, except for the eight-character hu on the upper lip indicating his age, he looks like he is only twenty-five or sixteen at most.
Who would have thought that such a young man would actually control the life and death of tens of thousands of mortals within a radius of Yueyang City.
He stood there like a dragon standing on a tiger plate, calm as a mountain, and his right hand gently held the Rejuvenation Jade on his chest very naturally, making him look like he had a bearing that looked at the world.
Taking the ginseng tea handed over by a waiter, and then taking a sip, feeling the rippling aura in his body, the solemn talk on Yue Changkong's face finally showed a relaxed smile.
He enjoyed such a day very much, and his heart was also very happy, especially after controlling the fate of countless people for a whole day, this pleasure could not be brought to him by anything.
So, he cherishes his life now.
At this time, a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe walked in, first bowed to the worship, and then said, "The head of the family, Mr. Xiao is here, saying that he has something important to discuss." ”
Yue Changkong turned his head suddenly, and at some point, the Rejuvenation Jade in his hand had disappeared into his hand, with a look of surprise on his face, he glanced at the scribe, and then walked directly towards the palace gate, and at the same time said with some reproach: "Why don't you just invite Mr. Xiao in, quickly, follow me out." ”
The scribe smiled bitterly, followed Yue Changkong's side, and said as he walked out: "Family master, I also want to invite Mr. Xiao to come in directly, but Mr. Xiao said that as a guest, he can't be unruly. ”
Yue Changkong paused for a moment, and then whispered: "Xiujie, my tone is a little heavier just now, don't care." ”
Just now he was an emperor who controlled the life and death of thousands of living beings, and his expression and behavior at this moment all showed his eagerness, and even a little flustered, so that he accidentally said the wrong thing and blamed his henchmen.
The scribe named "Xiu Jie" didn't even dare to say it.
After these two sentences, the two of them paced to the front of the temple gate, but they did not go out immediately, but first stopped and tidied up their clothes, and then they stepped out of the temple gate, and then they immediately fixed their eyes on the young man who was wearing a dark robe and holding a jade fan at the bottom of the steps, smiling suddenly.
This person's name is Xiao Sihai, and he looks extremely young at a glance, but after a closer look, he can't tell his age.
You can think that he is a young man, because in him you can feel the incomparably vigorous and fresh vitality; you can say that he is a young man, because you can not find the slightest childishness on his face, and he looks very calm and high-spirited; and you think that he is middle-aged, and you can deeply feel the grandeur of Yue Zhiyuan's bearing on his body; if you have to say that he is an old man, there seems to be nothing wrong, he stands there, and his body naturally exudes a sense of encompassing vicissitudes, as if he has lived for a long time.
Such a person, appearance is the least important, in his body, the temperament you feel is absolutely unique, even if you don't look at his face, you will never mistake him.
Yue Changkong and the scribe named "Xiu Jie" didn't dare to look at it more, for fear of angering the man at the bottom of the steps.
It was a foundation building realm, looking young, but it was actually an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years.
Yue Changkong was hugging his fists from afar: "Mr. Xiao is coming, Changkong has never greeted him from afar, and he is terrified." He came down the steps in a few steps, then stretched out his hand to lead forward, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, quickly follow Changkong into the hall, I haven't seen you these days, but I have long wanted to listen to your teachings, sir." ”
Xiao Sihai nodded, and then waved his hand casually: "Hehe, Master Yue, you are polite." ”
The voice is low and rich, full of air, giving people a sense of heaviness. Xiao Sihai was not polite while talking, and walked up directly.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yue Changkong glanced at Xiao Sihai, he already knew the other party's intentions, and he was not worried in his heart.
Immediately, he cast another look at Xiu Jie.
Xiu Jie's eyes lit up, then he nodded, turned around and walked in another direction, and at the same time, he also waved his hand to the guards and subordinates around him. When these people saw Xiu Jie's gesture, they immediately retreated with him, their movements were clean and neat, and they did not get out of the water at all.
There are some things that they can't listen to.
Entering the Yuanling Palace, Yue Changkong directly invited Xiao Sihai to sit on the main seat, while he himself sat in the guest seat, and then bowed slightly, and said, "Uncle Shi is out of the customs this time, presumably he must have made progress in cultivation, right?"
At this time, there were only the two of them in this hall, and Yue Changkong naturally didn't need to hide anything anymore. "Mr. Xiao" is the name of outsiders, and directly calling Uncle Shi is more intimate.
Xiao Sihai put the folding fan in his hand and patted it, and then said with a smile: "With your realm, you are still stuck in the bottleneck of condensation for more than ten years. And when it comes to my cultivation, it will be difficult to go further, and the accumulation of mana is indispensable, but it also depends on chance. ”
Hearing that Mr. Su didn't answer, he didn't ask any more questions, and when he mentioned his cultivation, Yue Changkong's eyes showed a hint of complexity, and he sighed: "Yes, the background is indispensable, and the opportunity is indispensable." After this time, my nephew will be able to get three Zhuji Dan, and then I plan to use the luck I have gathered over the past few decades to compete with God again to see if I can build a foundation in the Heavenly Dao. At that time, I will also ask my uncle to help me. ”
Xiao Sihai laughed, a little weird, and then replied noncommittally: "This is easy to say, I have always had an excellent relationship with the Yue family, and it is nothing to do a small favor." ”
The two of them said a few polite words on this topic, and then Yue Changkong said tentatively: "Senior Uncle, I really don't know what happened to Senior Sister Le Yao, if she is out of the customs, I will also go over and talk to her." ”
Xiao Sihai's face turned solemn, and he said, "Le Yao's girl woke up from her meditation a few days ago, and she asked about that matter. ...... Changkong, what's the matter with you, why haven't those people arrived yet?"
Yue Changkong chuckled in his heart, and then he said quietly: "Senior Uncle Rongyu, the ten people who were selected have almost all gathered, only the Su family is Su Xiaoman and my Yue Yunchi's Yue Yunchi has not yet arrived, but I heard the people below report that Yue Yunchi should go to Yueyang City today, and it is also because of the high mountains and long roads that delayed the trip, and the nephew did not intend to delay." In this way, Su Xiaoman is full. ”
When Xiao Sihai heard this, his face was solemn but not smiling, his expression was even more stern, he said: "There are only three months left before the opening of the Yunmengze Secret Realm, and the other three major sects are actively preparing, we have been planning for hundreds of years, this time it will be successful in one fell swoop, the elders of the Supreme Sect will not allow any mistakes in this plan, they are always paying attention to it." ”
Yue Changkong's heart shook violently, he originally thought that it was just the plan of the head of the sect and the elders, but he didn't expect that the real people in charge behind the scenes were those Supreme Elders. Having to listen to this earth-shattering secret, Yue Changkong took a long breath, suppressed his beating heart, and replied: "Uncle Shi, please rest assured, Changkong will definitely use all his energy to ensure that there will be no problems here." Later, I will go to meet the two heads of the Su Zuo family and explain to them the importance of the matter. ”
"Hmm. Your Yue family is also one of the top three immortal cultivation families in my Yuanyang Mountain, and I am still relieved that this errand is entrusted to you. ”
Xiao Sihai said in a rambling voice, and then solemnly instructed: "The Qi Replenishing Pill must be sent on time and in sufficient amounts, and it must be sure that they eat it." And those who are chosen, you must not treat them badly......"
Xiao Xiao Sihai earnestly instructed, tirelessly, Yue Changkong nodded yes from time to time.
The night breeze blew in through the window, the lights swayed, and in summer, the air in Qianjingyuan actually seemed a little cool......
