This seat is a villain

It turned out that Lin Jinhuan came here tonight after that blue shadow, but he didn't expect to meet Xue Yao here.Lin Jinhuan ignored Yan Qing's indescribable expression, and sent him back to rest first, and then walked slowly to Qingxin Hall with Xue Yao.

It was late autumn at this time, and the autumn wind was blowing along the way, and the golden osmanthus was fragrant.Many flower trees bear fruit, which is really lovely.In this boundless autumn scenery, neither of them spoke, they walked silently by themselves.

When Yanqing returned to Chaoshan Hall, Jinyi had already arrived. Seeing that Yanqing was the only one returning, Jinyi asked in surprise, "Where is Lin Jinhuan? How could he be injured?"

Yan Qing sat down on the chair angrily, and said: "Don't mention it, I was robbed by the goblin who killed halfway."

Jin Yi thought about it, and immediately understood what Yan Qing meant.She twisted a nut and threw it into her mouth, and said nonchalantly: "I have already said that Lin Jinhuan has no heart for him."

Yan Qing sighed, raised his hand to pour himself a cup of tea, and said: "Before leaving without saying goodbye, this time he came back quietly, I want to see how he plans to end up."

Jin Yi thought for a while, and came up with an idea that she thought was brilliant.Jin Yi suggested: "We might as well find a time to beat Xue Yao unconscious and tie him up to Lin Jinhuan, so that he won't fall in love and be interrupted."

Hearing this, Yan Qing almost spit out the tea in his mouth.He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Go, I dare not."

When Xue Yao brought Lin Jinhuan into the Qingxin Hall, Shen Zhaobi and Chongxue were still guarding the hall. Chongxue turned pale with fright when she saw Lin Jinhuan.

Lin Jinhuan's gaze stayed on Chongxue's face for a moment, then turned away.

Shen Zhaobi respectfully bowed to Lin Jinhuan, but those beautiful eyes circling curiously around the two of them.

Xue Yao first ordered Chongxue to get the medicine box, then dismissed the oiran lady who was waiting to watch the play, ignoring Shen Zhaobi's eyes, and finally led Lin Jinhuan to sit down under the lamp.

"It seems that you have spent a lot of time at the foot of the mountain, and the majestic little master of Jiutianmen actually let me get a bargain." Xue Yao carefully sprinkled the powder on Lin Jinhuan's arm, and joked nonchalantly.

Lin Jinhuan's robe was half undone, and Xue Yao, the two knives, were tossing about on his arm, but he didn't answer.

Xue Yao seemed to be concentrating on treating Lin Jinhuan's wound, but in fact his heart was still hanging on his chest.What Xue Yao really wanted to ask was naturally not these innocuous words.There is still a previous muddled account between him and Lin Jinhuan.But these words circled around in Xue Yao's mind for a long time, and finally he suppressed them.

Xue Yao is not a procrastination person, but the facts of what he is planning now should not involve too many personal emotions.

Just when Xue Yao thought that Lin Jinhuan would not take care of him, Lin Jinhuan suddenly said, "How can..."

Lin Jinhuan paused for a moment, cleared his throat, as if recalling how he would answer Xue Yao's teasing in the past.After a while, Lin Jinhuan smiled again and said, "How can it compare to fourth brother surrounded by red flowers and green willows, surrounded by beauties."

Xue Yao's hanging heart finally fell to the bottom of Lin Jinhuan's reaction.What happened tonight was not always his illusion, Lin Jinhuan in front of him was indeed different from before.This cognition made Xue Yao feel a little discouraged for a while. He didn't want to do more research, so he said vaguely: "This is all thanks to the outstanding people in Jialou Mountain."

Although the two had their own concerns at this time, they both chose to whitewash the peace for what happened before.

Lin Jinhuan fell silent again.Lin Jinhuan's sudden alienation made Xue Yao feel a little unbearable.Lin Jinhuan suspicious?Or has his identity been exposed?Suddenly all kinds of thoughts crowded into his mind.Xue Yao threw the medicine bottle aside, stood up and walked to the medicine box with his back to Lin Jinhuan.He closed his eyes to calm down, then took out a clean muslin from the medicine box, turned around and threw it in front of Lin Jinhuan.

"Wrap it up yourself." Xue Yao leaned against the table and fiddled with his hands, looking at Lin Jinhuan with serious eyes, thinking to himself: No matter what he thinks, the most important thing right now is to leave Mount Jialou smoothly after the birthday banquet.

These days, Lin Jinhuan followed the old monk to eat fast and recite the Buddha's name, copying the scriptures was like calm water.Seeing that he had just achieved some results, he was summoned back by Lin Chao overnight because of the vertical pupil.On the way back, the closer he got to Jialou Mountain, the more he thought of Xue Yao uncontrollably. Half a stack of scriptures was copied into the dog's stomach, and the delusions that had finally been dormant almost returned.

He didn't have the confidence to calmly face Xue Yao, so he simply ordered Yan Qing to hide the news that he had returned to the mountain.

After Lin Jinhuan survived the first half of the night at a loss, he felt a lot more relieved now.He had recovered from this unexpected encounter, and quietly cleaned up his exposed emotions.

Lin Jinhuan saw Xue Yao standing aside without saying a word, so he picked up the strap in front of him.While wrapping a muslin around his wound, he asked casually, "What do you think that thing will be tonight?"

"Who knows." Xue Yao came back to his senses, and sat down beside Lin Jinhuan: "It won't be something good after all."

Lin Jinhuan stopped his bandaged hands, and said to Xue Yao seriously: "There is one thing you may not know, Jinyi found something on Bian Jie's body today."

"What did you find?" Xue Yao asked, and he had a hasty conversation with Shen Zhaobi today, but he never heard her mention it.

"That's it." Lin Jinhuan raised his hand and twisted a blue disc from Xue Yao's neckline and handed it to Xue Yao.This disc is only the size of a melon seed, oval in shape, colorless and odorless, and it is impossible to tell what it is for a while.

"You mean that the blue shadow today is related to the vertical pupil?" Xue Yao took the disc from Lin Jinhuan's hand and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes, and the two of them separated with their fingertips.

"Exactly." Lin Jinhuan withdrew his hand and rubbed his fingers gently.

Xue Yao looked at the disc for a long while and didn't find out why, so he lost interest and threw it aside.He is not a member of Jiutianmen, and it is not his duty to track down Shutong.Chasing Lan Ying out today was just a whim.

After Lin Jinhuan's interruption, the strange atmosphere between the two eased a lot.Lin Jinhuan picked out a few interesting things that happened in the temple to tell Xue Yao.Xue Yao sat aside and listened, his brows raised higher and higher.

"So you just hang out with the old monk for a few months?" Xue Yao looked in disbelief.

"This benefactor, please pay attention to your wording." Lin Jinhuan corrected: "It's not a gangster, it's Qingxiu."

Xue Yao took Lin Jinhuan's half-wrapped bandage with a disapproving expression, quickly bandaged the wound for him, and put Lin Jinhuan's half-off robe back on.Xue Yao adjusted Lin Jinhuan's skirt, looked up into Lin Jinhuan's eyes and said seriously: "I didn't know it was you in the execution hall just now, I'm really sorry."

Lin Jinhuan's breathing was stagnant, and it took a while before he said, "Don't worry about it, it's because I'm not good at learning."

"I've improved a lot in chess recently..."

"It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."

The two spoke at the same time.Xue Yao froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.He stood up and said, "I'll send the little sect master out."

***

Wen Lang is 12 years old this year, a disciple who has just started for two years.He is still young and ordinary, so he has no chance to worship under any elders, so he can only be responsible for the sweeping work in the Nhat Hanh Temple, and practice some basic exercises with his seniors on weekdays.

He had to get up in the morning to fetch water at Yin time every day, and last night he heard from his senior brother who came back from a change of defense that something strange happened in the door, and even the little door master was injured.Wen Lang was so frightened that he didn't dare to close his eyes all night, and he fell asleep in a daze until it was almost dawn. He woke up a little late this morning.

Wen Lang came to the well with sleepy eyes, slipped and stepped on something and almost fell down.When he stabilized his body and took a closer look, he was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, and there were corpses lying on the ground beside the well.

One, two, three... There are six dead bodies by the well!

Emboldened with courage, Wen Lang tremblingly stepped forward to open the eyelids of the deceased, and found that the eyes of the six corpses were all vertical pupils.He couldn't remember how he left the well to call for people. When he came back to his senses, except for Wen Qiaohe who was retreating, the other three elders came to the Nhat Hanh Temple in person.

"I'm sure they are all high-ranking disciples." Qi Ying checked the corpses himself, stood up and continued, "They died almost at the same time."

"How could this be?" Situ Kun anxiously paced back and forth by the well, he turned twice and came to Qi Ying, and said indiscriminately, "Six high-ranking disciples died all of a sudden, what are you doing?" Yes, haven't the results of the investigation come out after so long?"

Qi Ying is used to indifference, and he turned a deaf ear to Situ Kun's face-to-face attacks.On the other hand, Huo Qingquan couldn't see it. She walked out of the crowd waving her fan and said, "Elder Situ, you are so angry. I wonder how much effort you have put in to track down Shutong?"

Situ Kun knew that Huo Qingquan was eloquent and merciless, and he couldn't get cheap from her.So he snorted coldly and stopped talking to Huo Qingquan.Huo Qingquan didn't have the heart to be considerate of Situ Kun, she continued relentlessly: "I was thinking that you should also choose a few proud disciples to help Qi Ying, don't treasure those crooked melons under your sect, If this matter gets out of hand, no one in the Nine Heavens Sect will be able to escape."

"Huo Qingquan!" Situ Kun was so angry that his eyes widened, as if he was about to make a move.Qi Ying's disciple Bian Cheng saw that the two had a disagreement and wanted to fight again, so he hurriedly intervened between the two to persuade the two great gods to leave.

After the crowd cleared away, Situ Kun, who had been away for a long time, returned to the Nhat Hanh Temple alone, and quietly put a blue disc that fell in the crevice of the stone into his sleeve.

Shen Zhaobi sat on the railing of the gazebo and watched Xue Yao practicing sword with heavy snow.The expression on Xue Yao's face was really impatient, but every move in his hand was unambiguous, and he taught him very carefully.

Xue Yao's attitude towards Chongxue made Shen Zhaobi a little confused. Everyone in Jiutianmen said that Chongxue was the person Xue Yao kept in the room.But in her opinion, Xue Yao didn't have the slightest affection for this little girl.

"See clearly? Are you sure it's Situ Kun?" Xue Yao put away his sword, leaving Chongxue to practice alone in the garden.He came to sit down beside Shen Zhaobi, and then talked about their previous topic.

Shen Zhaobi put away his probing demeanor, and said seriously: "I'm sure, I saw it with my own eyes."

After the crowd dispersed that day, Shen Zhaobi was ordered by Huo Qingquan to go back to the Nhat Hanh Temple to ask the young disciple who was the first to find the corpse for face-to-face questioning. He happened to bump into Situ Kun hiding clues furtively.

Could it be that old man Situ Kun has a problem... Xue Yao thought to himself.

Six high-ranking disciples of the Nhat Hanh Temple died in a row, and the matter of vertical pupils had developed to the point where Xue Yao had to take it seriously.The power of the vertical pupil is gradually increasing, if left unchecked, it will soon get out of control.Xue Yao's ultimate goal is indeed to eradicate Jiutianmen, but he has no plans to destroy Manmenmen.If the Nine Heavens Sect was really destroyed because of this incident, and he happened to stay on Jialou Mountain to perish with them, if this incident was reported back to the court, it would definitely become the laughing stock of Li Yun and the gang of old thieves.

The vertical pupil incident was related to the blue shadow that night. Although the appearance of the vertical pupil is generally recorded in the ancient books of immortality, it is a precursor to the depletion of the spiritual veins of the sect, and it is God's will that cannot be violated.But in Xue Yao's view, it was clearly caused by someone.

"You once mentioned that the disciples of the Nhat Hanh Temple all died during the time of Haishi." Xue Yao thought for a moment, then continued: "The time of Haishi is when we chased that blue shadow out. You should pass by on your way back to Qingxintang that night." Yixing Chanyuan, is there anything unusual along the way?"

"Nothing unusual, just..." Shen Zhaobi recalled, and told Xue Yao in detail what happened along the way that day.

"It's no wonder that Huo Qingquan and Yan Qing appeared in the execution hall together later." Xue Yao said, "So, that night, except for Wen Qiaohe and Situ Kun who were in retreat, the other two sect masters all arrived."

"Could it be Elder Situ?" Shen Zhaobi felt that his guess was a bit bold.

"Not necessarily, it's still too early to draw conclusions," Xue Yao said.

While talking, Xue Yao caught a glimpse of Jin Yi coming in from the moon gate, and then jumped down from the pavilion.He threw the sword in his hand to Shen Zhaobi, and said, "You practice the sword with the heavy snow, I will go back as soon as I go."

Today is the fifteenth, and it is the day when Xue Yao goes to Wuliangquan again.Although Lin Jinhuan had already returned, Jinyi was the only one who came to Qingxintang to pick up Xue Yao today.

Chongxue, who was practicing sword, saw that Xue Yao was going to Wuliangquan again, so she quickly put down her sword and jumped in front of Xue Yao.She gestured anxiously and asked Xue Yao to take her with her.

Every time Xue Yao came back from Wuliangquan, he seemed to have lost half of his life, and Jin Yi has a carefree personality. Don't expect her to take care of others.Chongxue was really worried and wanted to follow Xue Yao to take care of her.

"What can you do to help me? Practice your sword at home." Xue Yao pressed Chongxue's gesturing hand with a ferocious face, then leaned down/closed to her ear and whispered: "Forget how I Did you say that? I don’t keep idlers by my side, so if you want to stay in the Privy Council after returning to Beijing, you have to practice kung fu first.”

Chongxue glanced at Shen Zhaobi in the gazebo, and asked Xue Yao softly from an angle invisible to others: "After I have learned something, you promise not to send me back to Youzhou, and let me stay by your side?"

"I promise." Xue Yao said solemnly.

Chongxue wiped his face stubbornly, then picked up the small wooden sword and went back to the center of the garden to make gestures.

Xue Yao looked at Chongxue's back practicing sword, with a gratified smile unconsciously on the corner of his mouth.Although Chongxue loves to cry and be noisy on weekdays, she is wise and courageous, and she is a very tough little girl in her heart.Not everyone can get over this kind of pain.After returning to the capital, let her practice with Xiao Pei for a few years, and she will be able to be independent when she grows up.

While speaking, Jinyi had already come to Xue Yao, she followed Xue Yao's gaze to look at Chongxue, and she did not forget to joke. "This little crying bag has been working hard recently."

Xue Yao looked back at Jin Yi, and said lightly, "Let's go."

Along the way, Jin Yi walked beside Xue Yao and talked about the latest development of the vertical pupil, Xue Yao listened absent-mindedly.There was a little imperceptible loss in his heart, but he took it for granted in a flash.It has been five days since the last encounter in Xingtang, and Xue Yao has never seen Lin Jinhuan again.Even if Xue Yao didn't get the hang of it, he should understand that something between him and Lin Jinhuan had quietly changed, and he could never go back to the past.

It doesn't matter.Xue Yao followed Jinyi to Wuliangquan, thinking indifferently.Anyway, I will leave Jialou Mountain soon.

He has long understood that between him and Lin Jinhuan, even a good get-together and separation are extravagant wishes.
