His Majesty Meow Raises Fish [Rebirth]
Chapter 36
The screens in the house are also made of bamboo, with no carvings or painted screens on them, because of their age, they look very simple.
During the day, in order to make the room brighter, Chong Jiu would put the screen aside, and put it up again when the seventh and eleventh princes were ready to go to bed at night, so that the room could be divided into inside and outside.
When the evening drum sounded, Qi Jing and Xiao Shiyi had already bathed and washed as they did a few days ago.Wait for another moment, and the monks will turn off all the lights in the yard, and then it will be a time of rest.
Usually at this time, Qi Jing would either copy the last few scriptures before the case, or go back to the inner room to tell the little leopard cub a story and lull it to sleep.
But today, he neither wrote nor stayed in the inner room, but stood at the door, paced back and forth sometimes, and sometimes stopped to stare at the window sash.
The little leopard cub likes this big stone bed very much, especially the futon on it, and hugs and tosses on it.
Because the elder brother insisted repeatedly that it should not be damaged, the little guy didn't stretch out his claws or mouth, but just jumped up and down on it, hiding and running by himself, having a great time.
After a while, it looked outside.
Although I couldn't see anything through the screen, I could still feel that my brother was still standing at the door, and the little leopard cub showed a puzzled expression.
In order to make it easier for it to get up and down, Qi Jing moved a chair beside it, and it quickly jumped off the stone bed.
The little guy first ran to the back of the screen, poked his head out to observe, and saw that although his brother was standing at the door, he didn't really open the door, so he let go of his fat legs and ran to Qi Jing's side.
The little paw was on Qi Jing's clothes, and was hugged by his brother who noticed its movement. The little leopard cub whined softly, as if asking Qi Jing what he was doing.
If Shaoxuan came back, he would look for him first, but the lights were about to be extinguished, but he still didn't show up.
Qi Jing was afraid that opening the door would attract the attention of others and let everyone know that Shaoxuan was not in the house, so she didn't open the door.
He was afraid that his shadow would be cast on the door leaf, so he stood on the other side of the lampstand, so that his shadow could only be cast on the wall, and no one would notice.
"Shaoxuan went to the back mountain and hasn't returned yet. You will sleep well later, brother will wait for him."
The little leopard cub thought for a while, remembering what he had seen and heard during the day, he purred softly again, and rubbed Qi Jing's chest.
——Brother Shaoxuan must have gone to the back mountain to find the little monkey paper to play with, but he didn’t come home so late, making his brother worry, it’s too bad~ ouch!
The little leopard cub obviously wanted to be with his brother, but his work and rest time was completely natural, and he was more regular than a monk, so he started to feel sleepy when the time came, and nodded his head in Qi Jing's arms after a while.
Seeing this, Qi Jing carried it back to the "inner room" and carefully put it on the bed.
Although the little guy sleeps in various ways, he always tosses around in place and generally doesn't move his position. Just in case, Qi Jing still surrounded him with futons and quilts.
The little guy was already drowsy in his brother's arms, and fell asleep almost as soon as his head touched the bed.
Qi Jing gently touched its back, then returned to its previous position, waiting anxiously.
He had already sent his personal guards to the place where he entered the mountain, but he couldn't tell them to search the mountain immediately.
On the one hand, there are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in Zhenguo Temple, if there are martial arts masters like Master Hong Chou, their people walking around may be regarded as Xiaoxiao.
On the other hand, there is more than one way to enter the mountain. They go back and forth during the day to different places. There are not many people in Qi Jing.
There are no large beasts in the back mountain, and there is Master Hong Chou, a strong martial arts guardian, so it is reasonable to say that it will not be too dangerous.
But accidents like this, no one can predict, so Qi Jing decided to wait for the monks in the temple to come to the courtyard to extinguish the candles in the courtyard, and then ask them to go to the mountain to find people.
If it really doesn't work, even if Zhenguo Temple is alarmed in the end, Shaoxuan must be found, and it is not ruled out to ask the monks in the temple to help him find it.
At this moment, the courtyard outside became dark, and it was the monks who watched the night in the temple who extinguished most of the lights in the courtyard.
After a while, he felt that there was no movement in the yard. He was about to open the door and call the guards to act when he suddenly felt someone approaching, who knocked on the door lightly.
A familiar voice came in: "It's me."
Upon hearing this, Qi Jing immediately opened the door, and a tall figure entered the room swiftly, it was Shaoxuan.
Seeing bruises and abrasions on Shaoxuan's face at a glance, Qi Jing became more nervous, pulled his sleeve, asked "how did you get hurt", and wanted to see if there were any other wounds on his body.
"It's nothing, it's just a small injury." Shaoxuan held his wrist, trying to comfort the furry kitten: "You also practice martial arts, and you know that practicing martial arts will inevitably cause injuries."
Upon hearing this, Qi Jing looked at Shaoxuan: "Practicing martial arts? You are practicing martial arts in the back mountain today."
Shaoxuan nodded, and explained: "Master Hong Chou is indeed Shaokun's old friend. He deliberately instructed me...it was my fault for not telling you in time."
In fact, it wasn't that he didn't want to tell Qi Jing, but that Master Hong Chou's way of instructing him was to constantly attack him.
At first, he was on high alert, but later on he was exhausted physically and mentally. If he hadn't cared about Qi Jing in his heart, he might not have the strength to go down the mountain.
When they returned to the house guarding the mountain, the Seventh Prince's people were already waiting there. Master Hong Chou asked him to deliver a message to the temple, and then he rested in the mountain overnight.
But Shaoxuan knew about Qi Jing, if he didn't go down the mountain, even if he got news from him, he wouldn't be able to sleep well, so he insisted on going down the mountain.
It is strange to say that he is obviously very tired, but the speed of walking in the mountains is getting faster and faster... The feeling of returning to the heart like an arrow gives people infinite strength.
……
Qi Jing heard that Master Hong Chou had indeed met Shao Kun, so he guessed that the reason why Master Hong Chou went down the mountain was probably because of the Merman Emperor.
He was reborn once himself, knowing that the previous generation of Merman Emperor was dead at this time... As for how Master Hong Chou knew, the Seventh Prince thought, it should have something to do with that scale.
Sure enough, Shaoxuan said: "After the mermaid sinks into the sea, the detached scales will lose their luster immediately, lose their breath after a long time, and turn into dead things like flakes of stone."
Master Hong Chou, who was guarding the mountain, noticed the change in the scales of the old man, so he hurried down the mountain and rushed to the seaside, but he couldn't find the trace of Shaokun, so he had to return in vain.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are things that the creatures of heaven and earth have to face. Master Hong Chou may not know that Shao Kun died unexpectedly.
Shaoxuan looked at Qi Jing, and suddenly said: "If one day, the scales I gave you..."
After hearing half a sentence from him, Qi Jing immediately covered his mouth as if someone stepped on his tail: "What nonsense!"
Seeing that the other party's eyes were rounded and he looked very angry, Shaoxuan didn't finish the second half of the sentence, but took advantage of the situation and put his arms around the Seventh Prince's waist, and hugged him.
When meeting Master Hong Chou, he inevitably mentioned Shao Kun's death, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He didn't recover a little until he returned to this person.
Qi Jing was originally a little angry that he spoke freely, and felt a little embarrassed when he was hugged, but he soon felt the depression of the shark, and couldn't bear to really push him away.
The two hugged like this, and Qi Jing simply stroked his back with his hand as a comfort.
At this time, Shaoxuan's voice came from the Seventh Prince's ears: "Today, Master Hong Chou asked me to stay in Zhenguo Temple."
Qi Jing didn't realize the meaning of this sentence at the beginning: "We will live in Zhenguo Temple for more than three months. If you want to talk to the master about the Merman Emperor, you can go to the back mountain at any time..."
As he was talking, he suddenly noticed something and stopped immediately.
Letting go of Shaoxuan, Qi Jing looked at the other party, with surprise and panic in his tone: "Master Hong Chou asked you to stay in Zhenguo Temple, does that mean you will stay in the future?"
Shaoxuan nodded, and quietly looked back at Qi Jing.
He only found out today that Master Hong Chou and Shao Kun met when they were teenagers.
At that time, Master Hong Chou practiced with his master and went to the seaside at the junction of Qingzhou and Jizhou. By chance, he met Shaokun and got his scales.
When the master learned that Shaokun was dead, and Shaohai's old clan was wiped out by the new Yurenhuang, and Shaoxuan was forced to separate from his elder brother and had to avoid disaster inland, he proposed to take care of him.
"Since your body can support life on land, why not stay with the poor monk in Zhenguo Temple, where the environment is simple and comfortable, free from conflict with the world, and more suitable for avoiding disasters. If you want to go back to Shaohai to find the surviving clansmen in the future, You can pass the Buddhist temples along the coast, and your whereabouts are more hidden..."
"Although the Seventh Prince is pure and good, he was born in the royal family after all, so how can he always follow his heart? Your status is inherently special, and staying by his side may not be a long-term plan..."
……
As soon as Qi Jing heard that the master wanted to keep Shaoxuan in Zhenguo Temple, he immediately wanted to say a few reasons to persuade Shaoxuan to stay by his side.
But after searching in his mind for a long time, the eloquent seventh prince found that he was at a loss for words.
Because no matter how you look at it, it seems a better choice for Shaoxuan to stay in Zhenguo Temple.
For Shaoxuan, he didn't have to take the imperial examination like Luo Qin did, nor did his family live in Tianjing... He originally came from the sea, and he had to go back to the sea sooner or later, so he couldn't live inland forever.
Master Hong Chou is an old friend of the former Shark Emperor, and he is willing to provide Shaoxuan with a shelter.But in Qingzhou, if there is a place that is safer and quieter than the back mountain of Zhenguo Temple, it may be difficult to find one.
With Master Hong Chou's protection and help, even if Shaoxuan wants to return to Laiyiwei in the future, he can change his identity and hide himself in the Buddhist temple, without worrying that Prince Feng and An Guogong will find him again and make things difficult for him.
On the contrary, even Qi Jing himself didn't know whether he would be able to escape to death in three years, and how many dangers and difficulties he would face in the past few years, so how could he promise to give Shaoxuan a stable life?
Qi Jing looked into Shaoxuan's deep eyes, where there was concentration as usual, but she couldn't see the decision in the bottom of Shark's heart.
He suddenly discovered that the connection between himself and Shaoxuan was so weak that it seemed that it could be disconnected at any time.
Qi Jing, who was unwilling to ask for trouble and think about the future, suddenly felt great panic and anxiety in his heart.
——Yu Li, he couldn't persuade Yuren not to stay in Zhenguo Temple, so... what about Yu Qing?
