Chapter 45 Return
On the second day after Ji Xuan's father and son left, the usually lively Ji family's compound became even more deserted, in a secluded study, Ji Changfeng took out a pot of tea from the bookcase, boiled a pot of hot water, and then brewed a cup of tea.
This person, one of the three powerhouses of Siyue, is now more like an old man who is idle in the summer, Ji Changfeng held the teacup in both hands, leaned back on the back of the chair, and muttered quietly, "It's good that this kid didn't find out!"
Ji Changfeng has practiced for nearly three hundred years, which is three times the length of life of mortals, but most of them are spent in the military, which can be described as a high degree of hard work for Siyue's current stability. Ji Changfeng was good at drinking because of murder in his early years, but when he was old, he was tired of the spicy taste of wine, and he was more fond of the way of tea rhyme.
Under the influence of Ji Changfeng, although Ji Lingsheng likes to drink, he is more accustomed to drinking tea. Therefore, every time Ji Changfeng got a new tea, he was not willing to open it, so he unknowingly let Ji Lingsheng drink half of it, and Ji Lingsheng's way of drinking tea like water made Ji Changfeng's flesh hurt.
A sip of tea slides into the abdomen, and the heat after the slightly scalding tea begins to radiate from the throat to the whole body, coupled with the aftertaste of the tea that is wrapped between the mouth and teeth and overflows into the nasal cavity, coupled with the humidity of the early morning, it undoubtedly makes people feel comfortable and relaxed.
Ji Changfeng closed his eyes and quietly enjoyed his leisure time at this time, but let the footsteps from far and near be noisy, Ji Changfeng exhaled helplessly, opened his eyes and looked out the door.
A young girl poked her head out of the door, looked inside the study, and found that Ji Changfeng was looking at her, so she smiled happily and walked in. "Grandpa Ji, aren't you asleep?"
Ji Changfeng smiled and said, "You girl walks so much, who can sleep?", Bai Yue nodded innocently, and her two index fingers kept turning in circles.
"What? are you here to ask Ling Sheng again?", Ji Changfeng opened the floating tea leaves with the lid of the cup, smelled it casually, Bai Yueqiao's face turned red, and she quickly shook her head, and after a while, she asked in a mosquito-like voice, "Is the young master coming back today?"
Ji Changfeng laughed, but the teacup in his hand did not tremble, put down the teacup, Ji Changfeng said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's today, it's only been a few days, and you've asked me no less than ten times." ”
Bai Yue's face turned even redder, but she couldn't find a way to refute it, so she could only lower her head and continue to stir her fingers. Bai Yue is wearing a red dress today, and a pair of matching red shoes, the skirt waist is thinner than before, showing the girl's delicate figure that has begun to take shape, she usually doesn't like to dress up, she wore a thin blush today, and also wore earrings.
Ji Changfeng also noticed this, but did not speak, only showed a knowing smile.
Bai Yue lowered her head and didn't see any movement, so she quietly raised her head, but saw the teasing smile on the old man's face, Bai Yue's face was irritable, and she snorted angrily: "The young master is so immodest that your old man brought it out!"
Ji Changfeng's eyes widened, and he said, "Why did I bring it out, that kid's flowery intestines were born with it, and besides, it's not good for me to bring it out?", Ji Changfeng finished speaking in one breath, looking a little annoyed, and his trembling white beard also showed his dissatisfaction.
Bai Yue didn't argue with Ji Changfeng, dropped a hum and left.
Ji Changfeng was angry and funny, and finally laughed dumbly, "Okay, okay, my fault, my fault!", lifted the teacup from the table and began to drink tea leisurely.
Bai Yue walked in the corridor absentmindedly, her eyes didn't look ahead, she just stared at the ground blankly. It didn't take long for Bai Yue to appear on the roof of Ji Lingsheng's room, looking at the missing tile on the roof, Bai Yue laughed, as if she thought of something.
Finding a familiar place to sit down, Bai Yue held her chin with her hands, looked at Chaoxia with her eyes, and murmured, "Young Master, when will you come back?" Yue'er knows that you like red ······ the most."
The red light of the early morning sprinkled on the girl's body, like a holy light, dyeing the girl's red clothes into gold.
······
A hundred miles away, on a cliff mountain, Ji Lingsheng sneezed a lot. Rubbing his nose, Ji Lingsheng finished his morning practice, stood up and muttered, "Who is talking about me?"
Ji Lingsheng went down from the top of the mountain, arrived at the wooden house, and found Ji Xuan sitting in front of the door in a daze at the grave. Ji Lingsheng pursed his lips without bothering, turned around and went down the mountain to go to the village to ask for something to eat.
Walking on the winding mountain road, Ji Lingsheng silently planned for the future, "Now seventeen, go to Master Qingyun to practice for five years, the first master of Siyue, it shouldn't be a big deal for me to enter the Xuan Palace in five years! Five years and five years, then I will be twenty-two, and I will be twenty-two when I come back, I am a big girl, it is time to marry me, and Xue Yu." When the time comes, give birth to a big fat boy for the old man······"
"Bang!" Ji Lingsheng covered his eyebrows, stood in front of the culprit's tree and shook his somewhat dizzy head, and continued on the road after finding that there was no major problem, but his mind was still immersed in his imagination, causing this short section of the road to hit five or six trees.
When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Ji Lingsheng's forehead had turned purple, which caused the calf who went to the town to catch the market in the early morning to laugh, "Brother Lingsheng, did you come with your head this morning?", Ji Lingsheng's expression changed, and finally the calf covered his head and shouted to go to the market.
As soon as he entered the village, a warm-hearted lady came up and asked Ji Lingsheng if he had eaten, and when he learned that Ji Lingsheng had not eaten, he immediately led Ji Lingsheng home and gave him a bowl of noodles, holding a bowl of noodles bigger than his face, and Ji Lingsheng ate with relish.
On the other side, Ji Xuan still looked at the grave bag engraved with "Beloved Wife" gently, his eyes had not changed, and after a long time, Ji Xuan retracted his gaze and said in a light tone: "Since you are here, come out!"
There was no movement around, only the chirping birds responded, and Ji Xuan did not move, and continued: "Do you really think you can kill with one blow?", after Ji Xuan finished speaking, a figure jumped down from the branch, and landed lightly without a sound.
The man walked from under the tree to the light, and his feet made only a slight sound when he stepped on the fallen leaves on the ground. From the body shape, it can be barely seen that this person is a man, dressed in black and black pants, only revealing a pair of eyes with a cold gaze, the man in black did not speak, but looked at Ji Xuan with cold eyes.
Ji Xuan glanced at him, and then put his gaze back on the tomb, not paying much attention to this uninvited guest, Ji Xuan suddenly spoke: "The eighth gate of the Xuan Palace?", as if asking himself.
The man in black showed mockery in his eyes, his legs bent slightly, his hands touched behind him, and he said in a hoarse and terrifying voice, "Do you want to taste your own flesh?" and then drew two daggers from behind him, and the bright blades showed a cold glow in the sunlight.
Ji Xuan frowned when he heard this, and said, "Sure enough, what kind of person raises what kind of dog." ”
The man in black was not angry, his body trembled, let out a chilling laugh, and his eyes glared and said, "If I kill you, I will go down the mountain and slaughter Ji Lingsheng, that little beast!"
Ji Xuan glanced at the man in black disapprovingly, he really despised the man in black to the extreme, and the dagger in the man in black was quietly clenched, already angry. The man in black put his right foot back slightly, ready to exert his strength, the eighth gate of the Xuangong - the door of death, the monks who have reached this realm have been able to skillfully use the aura in their bodies to attack, and they can also maximize the strength of the human body, and they are only one step away from the secret realm that can fly through the sky.
The man in black stood hunched with a dagger in both hands.
The vision protruded, and a palpitating breath burst out from the man in black's body, and the power rushed out of the man in black's body, blowing all the fallen leaves at his feet, forming a circular clearing under the man's feet, and even the soil was scraped off, such a force became a kind of coercion, and it spread out with the man in black as the center, causing the entire mountain to seem to be silenced.
Ji Xuan was still silent, and the man in black thought that the other party was shocked, so he sneered: "Are you afraid?" Ji Changfeng also asked me the same way back then, an old man who has cultivated himself to a high level, but let me leave a magic barrier that I can't enter the realm for the rest of my life. ”
"En?" Ji Xuan put on a serious expression for the first time, and when he saw that Ji Xuan was puzzled, the man in black took off his mask, revealing an ordinary and old face.
The man in black was ordinary-looking, and his hysterical expression was enough to make people angry, and what caught the eye was the long, hideous scar on his neck, which from the front, divided his head into two parts, looked particularly terrifying.
"This is what your father left me, when I crawled back from the ghost gate, I swore revenge, I can't do anything about him, but it doesn't matter, I can do it to his heirs. Now the opportunity has come, I will return all the shame that your father brought me back to you and Ji Lingsheng!", the man in black looked crazy.
Ji Xuan looked at him expressionlessly, without the slightest fear.
The man in black had already entered a state of madness, and he was still talking to himself, "When I kill you, I will go back to Siyue and tell Ji Changfeng the good news, so that he can know what it means to be in pain." After speaking, the man in black laughed wildly, and the dagger in his hand swung out a circle of white rays.
Ji Xuan stood up from the threshold and said in a flat tone, "I'm afraid you don't have this opportunity." The man in black showed horror in his eyes, and his face was horrified, because he heard Ji Xuan's last words coming from behind him!
And in a fraction of a moment, the threshold where a big living person was originally standing was already empty, and the man in black only felt a cool breeze blowing behind him, and the cold sweat on his back aggravated this coldness, and he couldn't help but think of the fear when Ji Changfeng cut off most of his neck with a knife.
The man in black turned his head stiffly, the dagger in his hand fell to the ground, and the man in black who twisted his head could only see half of Ji Xuan's face without extra expression, and Ji Xuan's right hand raised. The man in black opened his mouth and stammered, his jaw trembled violently, and finally spit out the word "you".
As soon as he held back a word, Ji Xuan's floating right hand slapped lightly on the right shoulder of the man in black, and the fluttering palm seemed weak but like a thunderbolt.
The pain struck, and the man in black could only be forced to turn his head back, and the man in black raised his head to the sky, his eyes were white, and only the whites of his eyes could be seen in his eyesockets that were about to burst. Standing with his legs straight and unconscious, his hands twitching, his whole body trembling, and his limbs began to expand rapidly and slowly retract, and it lasted for about a few breaths, and the man in black finally fell straight down, still unable to see the eyeballs in his eyes.
Ji Xuan looked at the corpse of the man in black and said to himself, "It seems that the dog emperor should not be able to bear it." ”
Ji Lingsheng walked up the mountain quickly and rushed to the front of the wooden house, Ji Xuan was standing in front of the grave, without any abnormality. Ji Lingsheng walked up to his father and asked, "Father, is that breath yours just now?"
Ji Xuan laughed at it, but Ji Lingsheng pouted when he acquiesced, and secretly sighed in his heart that he should work harder.
"Let's go, let's go home!"
On another hill, several jackals were gnawing at a corpse wrapped in black.
