This seat is a villain
Chapter 38
"Old man, you can almost order it. Ah Yao just came back."
The two were fighting in full swing, when the woman's voice suddenly came from next to their ears.Although the woman was sitting on the porch, her voice was as clear as it was whispered next to the ears of the two.
The two figures fighting in a ball in the air seemed to have been hit by acupuncture points, they paused at the sound, and stopped at the same time, both of them fell to the ground.
It turned out that the man dancing the stick was Lin Chao, the master of Jiutianmen.Lin Chao casually threw the wooden stick onto the weapon rack, took the handkerchief Ting Lan handed over, and walked towards Xue Yao while wiping the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.
"It really is a boy born from a hero." Lin Chao looked at Xue Yao and praised him sincerely.Xue Yao did so many tricks in his hands at a young age, but he didn't show any signs of failure, which really made him a "front wave" with a lot of emotion.
"Senior Lin, I'm sorry." Xue Yao politely cupped his hands.In fact, Xue Yao knew in his heart that Lin Chaofang had only used three successful powers. Although his stick technique was excellent, he did not have a trace of true energy, otherwise he would never be able to do ten moves in his hands.
Lin Chao patted Xue Yao's shoulder with satisfaction, handed the handkerchief to Ting Lan, turned around and sat down on the imperial concubine's couch, and drank the tea from Yan Qing.
"Ayao, come and sit here, ignore that crazy old man." The woman put down the round fan in her hand and sat up straight from the imperial concubine's couch. She smiled and waved to Xue Yao, and said softly: "Have a hard time along the way, I See, you've lost a lot of weight recently."
The woman looked up at Xue Yao carefully while talking, her tone was full of distress.When she laughed, it was like the first rainstorm, and the previous indifference and alienation were swept away.A pair of pitch-black eyes lit up in an instant, as soft and tender as autumn water.
When Xue Yao saw these eyebrows, his mood became brighter.He came to the woman with a smile, Ting Lan had already set up a stool beside the imperial concubine's bed, and presented Xue Yao with a cup of tea thoughtfully.
This woman is Lin Jinhuan's mother, Qin Chuqi from Witch Doctor Valley.When Xue Yao and Lin Jinhuan first met, they called themselves Xue Si, and then followed Lin Jinhuan to Jiutianmen by accident.Xue Yao felt that it would be rude not to tell his real name when he came to someone's house as a guest, so when Xue Yao and Qin Chuqi met for the first time, he took advantage of the opportunity to say his real name.Lin Jinhuan made fun of him for a long time with this matter.
"Xue Yao? Is it a rumor that keeps spreading rumors or a kiln with broken tiles and cold kilns?" On the way out of the Liuxiang Palace for the first time, Lin Jinhuan asked knowingly.
"You're not finished yet." Xue Yao stopped and glanced at Lin Jinhuan angrily.He took Lin Jinhuan's hand roughly, and wrote the character "Yao" stroke by stroke with his fingers.
"It's Yaoyao, who is as sinking as water in the night, talking about floating and wandering in order to enjoy himself, do you understand?"
"Come on, let me take your pulse." Qin Chuqi said.
Qin Chuqi's voice brought Xue Yao back to his senses, he put the teacup on the low table beside him, and obediently stretched out his hand.Qin Chuqi's white jade-like hands rested lightly on his wrists, she turned her head slightly, and carefully diagnosed the pulse.
Lin Chao on the side took the document handed over by Yan Qing, and asked casually while reviewing it: "Why didn't Lin Jinhuan come?"
Xue Yao glanced at Lin Chao's expression and saw that he looked worried, so he kindly rescued Lin Jinhuan and said, "Miss Jinyi is looking for him to discuss something."
"Hmph, what serious business can they do together?" Lin Chao said angrily, throwing the documents he had read on the low table.
As a mother, Qin Chuqi cared a little about Lin Jinhuan's face in front of Xue Yao. She glared at Lin Chao complainingly, found a way to interrupt Lin Chao's next words, and turned her head and said softly to Xue Yao: "Your pulse is slow, The pulse is not as gentle as it was a month ago, so it can be seen that you have spoiled your body a lot in the past two months." Qin Chuqi let go of her hand, and continued: "If you have time, let Jin Huan lead you to Wuliangquan Bubble."
Wuliangquan is a natural cold spring on Jialou Mountain, located in the Nine Heavens Gate forbidden area on the other side of the stone bridge.The Wuliang Spring is full of spiritual power, and it is a natural blessing. Although this spring cannot live or die, it can warm and nourish the inner palace, which is very helpful for stabilizing the heart.A big reason why the ambiguity in Xue Yao's body could not be relieved was that the poison had already fused into his veins and blood. If he was forced out rashly, he would be backlashed by the internal force stagnated for decades, and he would die early before the poison came out.
Lin Jinhuan rummaged through the ancient books, and accidentally came across the record about Wuliangquan. He and Jin Yi joined forces, and Jin Yi really found a glimmer of life from it.After that, on the first and fifteenth day of each month, Lin Jinhuan took Xue Yao to Wuliangquan to soak, and cooperated with Jin Yi to administer acupuncture, and the two of them managed to control the poison of obscurity.
Xue Yao withdrew his hand, and took out the white jade box that he put in his arms in a hurry, and handed it to Qin Chuqi: "This is the white salamander I brought home this time, and I only found these now. I have asked my family to continue searching , and if there is any harvest, send someone to send it over.”
Qin Chuqi was weak and suffered from congenital heart disease since she was a child, and needed a medicine called white salamander as a medicine to continue her life.The white salamanders are made from eggs laid by white salamanders living in the extreme north. The white salamanders themselves are extremely precious, and most people never get to see them in their lifetime.Lin Chao ordered his subordinates to search all over Kyushu for many years, but they could only find a few, and now it is even more difficult to maintain.
Xue Yao learned about this from Lin Jinhuan a few months ago, and he remembered that he had seen this medicine in the list of gifts presented to the emperor in the territory.So he asked Lin Chao to repair a book and go home to inquire.This "family letter" was actually sent back to the Privy Council. When Xiao Pei saw the letter, he took Xue Yao's handwritten letter into the palace overnight to fetch the white salamander, and sent it back to Jiutianmen along with the letter bird.
Because of this opportunity, Xue Yao obtained the opportunity to communicate with the outside world within the Nine Heavens Gate.There has always been a set of secret words in the Privy Council, a seemingly ordinary letter from home, but when read in secret words, it has a completely different meaning.Xue Yao took advantage of the opportunity of sending white salamanders to communicate with Xiao Pei, and at the same time gained the trust of Lin Chao, Qin Chuqi and his wife.
Lin Chao and his wife are always surrounded by the female rascal Lin Jinyi, the bookworm Yan Qing, and the unfilial son Lin Jinhuan.So the couple fell in love with Xue Yao when they saw Xue Yao.As soon as Xue Yao came, he helped Qin Chuqi find the white salamander, and because of him, Lin Jinhuan stayed peacefully on Jialou Mountain for more than half a year, which made the two elders feel more grateful for Xue Yao's love.
However, Xue Yao has excellent martial arts skills at a young age, and he can easily find him as precious as a white salamander, which is too powerful, so Lin Chao secretly sent someone to the capital to verify Xue Yao's origin.
As a young envoy of the Privy Council, it was inconvenient for Xue Yao to enter and leave the world with his real identity, so his master had prepared a set of identities for him in the early days that could be falsely identified as the fourth son of the Xue family, a wealthy businessman in the capital.The Xue family's great cause is clean, and has nothing to do with the imperial court or the major immortal sects. The biggest characteristic is that they are rich.The fourth son of Xue had no intention of family business since he was a child, and he was obsessed with martial arts. He studied under the sword master Gu Jiuzhang.From the fact that the Fourth Master Xue was ambushed by the Xue family’s business nemesis a few years ago and his whereabouts are unknown, to the fact that the Fourth Master Xue was fighting cocks and running dogs and went to the house to expose tiles when he was a child.
The spies went back to Jialou Mountain and told in detail what they had seen and heard in the capital, which completely dispelled the doubts of Lin Chao and his wife, and they loved Xue Yao even more.
Several people sat on the porch and chatted happily, talking about the situation of various fairy gates in Kyushu, and small about the scenery of the market in various places.From time to time, Lin Chao pulled Xue Yao up to compete with each other when they got excited, and even personally taught Xue Yao a few tricks.Qin Chuqi loves Xue Yao even more from the bottom of her heart. She ordered Ting Lan to serve seasonal fruits, and then asked the kitchen to bring Xue Yao's favorite snacks. Even Ting Lan, who was beside her, gently tugged on La Yanqing's sleeve and said: It would be great if this person can come to Liuxiang Palace often.
Lin Chao and his wife had already bigued, but Qin Chuqi specially kept Xue Yao for dinner in Liuxiang Palace.During the dinner, Lin Chao originally wanted to order Ting Lan to invite Lin Jinhuan over, but Yanqing remembered that Lin Jinhuan had asked him about the grand ceremony during the day, and was worried that Lin Chao would be angry with his outspokenness, so he quickly found an excuse to stop Ting Lan.
When Xue Yao finally came out of Liuxiang Palace, the night sky was already full of stars.He walked aimlessly on the starlight that fell on the ground, and the thorn of contradiction in his heart began to emerge again.He glanced back at the dimly lit Liuxiang Palace, and turned around after a while to continue walking forward.
Xue Yao lost his father when he was young, and since the day he entered the palace and became the prince's companion, he has been involved in court battles involuntarily, half his life with swords and swords.Although his adoptive father loves him very much, he has been extremely strict with him since he was a child.No one has ever treated him as simple and pure as the Jiutianmen family.He knew in his heart that he had gone all out to find the white salamanders for Qin Chuqi not just to gain their trust, but he hoped from the bottom of his heart that she would be in good health and everything would go smoothly.
No matter how tough the heart is, it will be warmed up, besides, he is just an ordinary person.
Xue Yao walked forward absently, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was going in the wrong direction.This road is not the way to Qingxintang, but it is not far from Chaoshantang where Lin Jinhuan lives.
Xue Yao originally planned to turn back, but with a thought, he continued walking forward.
For no reason, he suddenly wanted to see Lin Jinhuan very much.
As he walked, Xue Yao wondered what to do when he arrived at Chaoshan.Although the two of them didn't say anything clearly during the day, they had an inexplicable quarrel and parted ways. At this moment, he came to visit late at night quietly, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
It's just that man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation, Xue Yao hadn't thought about what to say for a while, and ran into Lin Jinhuan head-on at the corner.
"Fourth brother, what a coincidence. Why are you here?" Lin Jinhuan asked.
He stood in front of Xue Yao with a smile on this cool night like water, maybe because the starlight was so good tonight, his eyes also had tiny gleams.
Xue Yao didn't expect to meet Lin Jinhuan here suddenly, and for a moment he felt a little cramped in his heart.But fortunately, Xue Yao also walked all the way in various open and secret struggles. He didn't show any emotion on his face. He just glanced at Lin Jinhuan and said nonchalantly: "I happened to pass by on the way back from Liuxiang Palace. How about you?" , where are you going?"
Lin Jinhuan glanced at the direction Xue Yao came from, raised his eyebrows, and the smile in his eyes deepened.Qingxintang will not go in this direction.Lin Jinhuan thought so in his heart, but said frankly: "I'm going to Qingxintang to find you."
Xue Yao also realized the omission of what he said just now, and was very annoyed in his heart. Seeing Lin Jinhuan pass the steps, he borrowed the slope and said, "Oh? What can I do for you?"
Lin Jinhuan thought to himself, what can people say, he can't say that he wants to see you.So Lin Jinhuan had no choice but to pretend to be a little girl, and said to him from left to right: "Si Lang is so cruel, can't he come to you if he has nothing to do?"
"What's the little sect master talking about?" Xue Yao was amused by Lin Jinhuan's deliberate coercion, he arched his hands towards Lin Jinhuan, and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, I accidentally lost my way just now, please excuse me, little sect master. I'll take a ride."
Lin Jinhuan spread out the folding fan he didn't know where, shook it gracefully in this warm and cold season, and said with a good-tempered smile: "It's easy to say, come, Mr. Xue, please."
The two walked slowly while chatting against the starlight, and neither of them mentioned the day's affairs.It took more than half an hour for the two top experts to arrive at the not-too-distant road.
After finally reaching the gate of Qingxintang, Xue Yao invited Lin Jinhuan in for a cup of tea.
Lin Jinhuan drank the small pot of Que Tong for a long time without bottoming it out. He put the cup on the table and pestered Xue Yao to play chess with him.
Xue Yao has devoted most of his life to fighting and killing, and his chess skills are really limited.Unexpectedly, Lin Jinhuan was merciless, and killed Xue Yao in two hits.Xue Yao patiently played a few games with Lin Jinhuan. After another tragic loss, he impatiently lifted the chessboard, leaned back on the couch, and said, "I admit defeat, my little master, please do me a favor." , torture others."
Lin Jinhuan sat in front of the chess table, with black and white chess pieces scattered on the ground.He saw Xue Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had fallen asleep.Lin Jinhuan's eyelashes trembled, and he raised his eyes. He was finally able to let himself look carefully at Xue Yao's face.
Thin.Lin Jinhuan thought.His complexion didn't look too good, and he probably played swords and swords a lot when he returned to Beijing.
Lin Jinhuan sighed silently in his heart, he thought to himself that people should watch and watch, he drank most of the pot of tea, and played chess for half the night, should he say goodbye.
But Lin Jinhuan just looked at Xue Yao with serious eyes, as if he wanted to make up for the few glances he missed in the past two months.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Lin Jinhuan was silent, Xue Yao opened his eyes a little strangely.
Lin Jinhuan quickly looked away, forced himself to stand up, and said like a gentleman, "It's late at night, so I'll take my leave first."
Xue Yao was indeed a little tired and almost fell asleep just now.He pulled himself together and got up to send Lin Jinhuan out. Before going out, he inadvertently raised his head and glanced at the lit lantern in the corridor. On the lantern, the four characters "Four Seasons Peace" were very clear at night. My heart was sour and numb.
His heart softened for a long time.
"Hey, wait a minute." He scratched his head, sighed a little resignedly, and called Lin Jinhuan to stop.
Lin Jinhuan turned around without knowing why, and looked at him suspiciously.
Xue Yao signaled Lin Jinhuan to wait for a while, went into the back room and took out a package, and smashed it on the table in front of Lin Jinhuan with a "clang".
"What is this?" Lin Jinhuan frowned as he looked at the thing wrapped in rags on the table.Seeing him disgusted, Xue Yao pushed the rags away.
Wrapped in the cloth are five short knives, each only the size of a palm.The handle of the knife is plain and unadorned, and the three characters "I don't know me" are engraved in seal script.The blade is pitch black, and it is impossible to tell what kind of material it is made of, and the tentacles are cold and cut iron like mud.
"Didn't you never have a weapon in your hand?" Xue Yao began to lie without changing his face: "When I was in the capital, I passed by an antique stall, and I saw that these things were still exquisite, so I bought them."
Where is this small object bought from a roadside stall? This is clearly the treasured sword in the Privy Council's collection.
Lin Jinhuan looked at the dagger carefully, but didn't say anything.
"Would you like it? If you don't want it, I'll take it back and give it to my little nephew to play with." Seeing Lin Jinhuan staring at the knife without speaking, Xue Yao was a little nervous, and he stretched out his hand to put the knife away.Now he felt a little impulsive, the little sect master of Jiutianmen had never seen such a rare thing, how could he be so rare about his broken knives?
Lin Jinhuan pressed Xue Yao's hand as if he had just recovered, and said, "Aren't you ashamed, is there a reason to be ashamed to return something you give away?" With one hand, he took out a dove-egg-sized pearl and flicked it into Xue Yao's arms, saying, "Fortunately, our Jiutianmen never take advantage of others, so put away the pearls. My pearls are smaller than yours." Things are more valuable, so you don’t have to look for them.”
The little uneasiness in Xue Yao's heart was dissipated by Lin Jinhuan's shameless behavior. He grabbed the rag on the table, stuffed it with a knife into Lin Jinhuan's arms, and pushed him outside the door: "Go away, Don't be an eyesore here at night."
The door closed in front of Lin Jinhuan's nose with a "snap", and locked with a "clang".Lin Jinhuan stood outside the door, wanting to knock on Xue Yao's door again, but he just clenched the knife in his hand and smiled silently at the closed door.
He suddenly understood every choice made by his ancestors.When a person has concerns in his heart, he realizes the value of being alive.
The author has something to say:
Is it sugary today?
The two were fighting in full swing, when the woman's voice suddenly came from next to their ears.Although the woman was sitting on the porch, her voice was as clear as it was whispered next to the ears of the two.
The two figures fighting in a ball in the air seemed to have been hit by acupuncture points, they paused at the sound, and stopped at the same time, both of them fell to the ground.
It turned out that the man dancing the stick was Lin Chao, the master of Jiutianmen.Lin Chao casually threw the wooden stick onto the weapon rack, took the handkerchief Ting Lan handed over, and walked towards Xue Yao while wiping the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.
"It really is a boy born from a hero." Lin Chao looked at Xue Yao and praised him sincerely.Xue Yao did so many tricks in his hands at a young age, but he didn't show any signs of failure, which really made him a "front wave" with a lot of emotion.
"Senior Lin, I'm sorry." Xue Yao politely cupped his hands.In fact, Xue Yao knew in his heart that Lin Chaofang had only used three successful powers. Although his stick technique was excellent, he did not have a trace of true energy, otherwise he would never be able to do ten moves in his hands.
Lin Chao patted Xue Yao's shoulder with satisfaction, handed the handkerchief to Ting Lan, turned around and sat down on the imperial concubine's couch, and drank the tea from Yan Qing.
"Ayao, come and sit here, ignore that crazy old man." The woman put down the round fan in her hand and sat up straight from the imperial concubine's couch. She smiled and waved to Xue Yao, and said softly: "Have a hard time along the way, I See, you've lost a lot of weight recently."
The woman looked up at Xue Yao carefully while talking, her tone was full of distress.When she laughed, it was like the first rainstorm, and the previous indifference and alienation were swept away.A pair of pitch-black eyes lit up in an instant, as soft and tender as autumn water.
When Xue Yao saw these eyebrows, his mood became brighter.He came to the woman with a smile, Ting Lan had already set up a stool beside the imperial concubine's bed, and presented Xue Yao with a cup of tea thoughtfully.

"Xue Yao? Is it a rumor that keeps spreading rumors or a kiln with broken tiles and cold kilns?" On the way out of the Liuxiang Palace for the first time, Lin Jinhuan asked knowingly.
"You're not finished yet." Xue Yao stopped and glanced at Lin Jinhuan angrily.He took Lin Jinhuan's hand roughly, and wrote the character "Yao" stroke by stroke with his fingers.
"It's Yaoyao, who is as sinking as water in the night, talking about floating and wandering in order to enjoy himself, do you understand?"
"Come on, let me take your pulse." Qin Chuqi said.
Qin Chuqi's voice brought Xue Yao back to his senses, he put the teacup on the low table beside him, and obediently stretched out his hand.Qin Chuqi's white jade-like hands rested lightly on his wrists, she turned her head slightly, and carefully diagnosed the pulse.

Qin Chuqi let go of her hand, and continued: "If you have time, let Jin Huan lead you to Wuliangquan Bubble."
Wuliangquan is a natural cold spring on Jialou Mountain, located in the Nine Heavens Gate forbidden area on the other side of the stone bridge.The Wuliang Spring is full of spiritual power, and it is a natural blessing.

Xue Yao was indeed a little tired and almost fell asleep just now.He pulled himself together and got up to send Lin Jinhuan out. Before going out, he inadvertently raised his head and glanced at the lit lantern in the corridor. On the lantern, the four characters "Four Seasons Peace" were very clear at night. My heart was sour and numb.
His heart softened for a long time.
"Hey, wait a minute." He scratched his head, sighed a little resignedly, and called Lin Jinhuan to stop.
Lin Jinhuan turned around without knowing why, and looked at him suspiciously.
Xue Yao signaled Lin Jinhuan to wait for a while, went into the back room and took out a package, and smashed it on the table in front of Lin Jinhuan with a "clang".
"What is this?" Lin Jinhuan frowned as he looked at the thing wrapped in rags on the table.Seeing him disgusted, Xue Yao pushed the rags away.
Wrapped in the cloth are five short knives, each only the size of a palm.The handle of the knife is plain and unadorned, and the three characters "I don't know me" are engraved in seal script.The blade is pitch black, and it is impossible to tell what kind of material it is made of, and the tentacles are cold and cut iron like mud.
"Didn't you never have a weapon in your hand?" Xue Yao began to lie without changing his face: "When I was in the capital, I passed by an antique stall, and I saw that these things were still exquisite, so I bought them."
Where is this small object bought from a roadside stall? This is clearly the treasured sword in the Privy Council's collection.
Lin Jinhuan looked at the dagger carefully, but didn't say anything.
"Would you like it? If you don't want it, I'll take it back and give it to my little nephew to play with." Seeing Lin Jinhuan staring at the knife without speaking, Xue Yao was a little nervous, and he stretched out his hand to put the knife away.Now he felt a little impulsive, the little sect master of Jiutianmen had never seen such a rare thing, how could he be so rare about his broken knives?
Lin Jinhuan pressed Xue Yao's hand as if he had just recovered, and said, "Aren't you ashamed, is there a reason to be ashamed to return something you give away?" With one hand, he took out a dove-egg-sized pearl and flicked it into Xue Yao's arms, saying, "Fortunately, our Jiutianmen never take advantage of others, so put away the pearls. My pearls are smaller than yours." Things are more valuable, so you don’t have to look for them.”
The little uneasiness in Xue Yao's heart was dissipated by Lin Jinhuan's shameless behavior. He grabbed the rag on the table, stuffed it with a knife into Lin Jinhuan's arms, and pushed him outside the door: "Go away, Don't be an eyesore here at night."
The door closed in front of Lin Jinhuan's nose with a "snap", and locked with a "clang".Lin Jinhuan stood outside the door, wanting to knock on Xue Yao's door again, but he just clenched the knife in his hand and smiled silently at the closed door.
He suddenly understood every choice made by his ancestors.When a person has concerns in his heart, he realizes the value of being alive.
