Jiuxiao

The cause of the matter should start from that day.

Zhou Chen and Liu Xiaowan had a falling out, and ran away in a fit of anger, but Liu Xiaowan didn't notice, and it turned around and slipped into the kitchen.

Cultivation of real people does not eat five grains, so it is okay to live with Bigu pills, but refining Bigu pills takes time and energy, unless people specialize in alchemy, under normal circumstances, everyone will not have nothing to eat three meals a day, so generally The comprehension sect would prepare a kitchen and hire women from the mountain to help cook. So after Zhou Chen came to the Jinghai sect, this place became its favorite.

Since Zhou Yin brought it here, whenever Zhou Yin meditated and practiced, the greedy hairball would sneak here, steal a piece of braised pork, two spring bamboo shoots braised in oil, a few pieces of shrimp and potato cakes, and the kitchen was full of people. Miscellaneous, and they are all ordinary people. Mao Tuan used the cover-up method of last week's Indian teachings to turn into chopsticks and steamed buns for a while, hiding from the chef's attention, and then feasting on it.

As time goes by, I don't know whether it is food enlightening wisdom, or desperately developing potential for eating. I have no other skills, but the blindness and invisibility skills become more and more proficient. Every three days, I go to the kitchen to eat a big meal and find a place to sleep. In the last sleep, life, no, don't mention how beautiful Ji Sheng is.

Zhou Yin was not there, and no matter how many times the quilt was rolled over, there was no familiar smell. On the contrary, the back mountain of the Jinghai school was rarely visited by people, full of spiritual energy, and lush vegetation, which became Maotuan's favorite place to sleep.

That day, it was sleeping soundly lying on the grass with its limbs spread out, half dreaming and half awake, and vaguely felt the breath of Zhou Yin, and hurriedly opened its eyes to look around, but didn't see anyone, then got up in a daze, followed the looming Breath forward.

Then, I saw Zhou Yin being taken away by Chen Zhong and the others from a distance.

The subconscious alertness of the body overwhelmed the excitement of instinctively wanting to rush over. These days, Mao Tuan's intelligence has gradually opened up, and he understands that if he runs over at this moment, not only will he not be able to save his mother, but he may be turned into a gray chicken stew.

Followed all the way from a distance, relying on the identification of Zhou Yin's breath, there was no danger, and when they arrived outside the inn where they stayed, when the two villains left, Mao Tuan excitedly used the spirit that he had just learned without a teacher. He tried to open the window, but found that he was too fat and his wings were too small to fly through the window.

It took a long time before he finally changed his body shape and squirmed in step by step. The inside story can be described as twists and turns, ups and downs.

"What is this?" Chen Yunzhi was dumbfounded.

Mao Tuan didn't care about her, and squeaked and pounced on Zhou Yin.

Zhou Yin caught it, weighed it, and raised his eyebrows: "It's heavy again."

He was bound by a soul-locking rope, unable to leave Wu Feng's control, but his limbs could still move freely, at least better than when he was trapped in a carriage.

Zhou Chen twisted embarrassingly, squeaked, and looked shy.

"I'm not in danger yet, you can't save me."

"Squeak!" It was eager to express something, and its fluff was about to explode.

The little thing was obviously much smarter, knowing that Chen Yunzhi was present, he didn't open his mouth to speak.

Zhou Yin said: "Since you have been able to follow me all the way here, it means that you have developed your spiritual wisdom and the ability to protect yourself, and you don't need to rely on me. You can go. If you find your relatives in the future, go back with them."

The hairball pecked at his palm.

Zhou Yin was unmoved: "No."

Mao Tuan angrily climbed off him, then climbed onto the table, belly up, expressing a silent protest.

Chen Yunzhi: "..."

Zhou Yin: "..."

Chen Yunzhi regained his senses, ignored the unusualness of this gray hair ball for the time being, and whispered: "Actually, it is not impossible for it to follow, it can be placed here with me temporarily, as long as it does not make any noise, my father... and Elder Wu won't come to search, they want me to go to Qinggumen to marry that Lexian patriarch, so they won't do anything to me for a while, as long as I obey them, maybe I can find a chance to let him go you go."

For the first time, Zhou Yin looked straight at the girl who was once the most favored in Jinghai School.

In fact, she is not unintelligent, but she has been too smooth since she was a child, and she is not needed to be smart. Now that the catastrophe is imminent, others will try to save themselves first, but Chen Yuanzhi proposed this method, changing places, Zhou Yin asked himself that she could not do it like that.

"What about you?" Zhou Yin asked.

"I don't know...Maybe I listened to my father and married that Le Xian patriarch, how can I say that he has been kind to me in nurturing me." Chen Yuanzhi said softly.

Zhou Yin didn't speak, and after a while, he said: "I don't need you to save me, if you want, you can go back with me."

He has always been a loner and doesn't like to be restrained, so it is very rare to be able to say such a sentence.

The hairball got up quickly.

"Squeaky?" What about me?

"What can you do?" Zhou Yin raised his eyebrows and looked at it.

"Squeak..." Zhou Chen sat on the table dejectedly, drooping his head.

Zhou Yin couldn't help raising his lips and laughing out loud.

Not to mention the smile, it's very rare to see other expressions on his rarely moved face. A smile like this melts like a glacier, and the original pure and beautiful appearance becomes more and more beautiful. Not only Mao Tuan stared blankly, even Chen Yunzhi Also slightly startled.

It's just that the smile was fleeting, and Zhou Yin returned to his unmoving expression.

He stroked the Xumi ring on the ring finger of his left hand, picked up the hair ball, and stuffed it into the space inside.

Since I often eat five or six meals a day recently, the whole hairball has gained a lot of fat, and I almost can't fit it in.

He had only discovered this secret not long ago.

This Sumeru ring, which is not even noticeable on the outside, was not abnormal when it came back from ancient times. The things it can hold inside are limited. After installing the sky-cleaning pen and a few talismans, there is basically no room left .

But Zhou Yin gradually discovered that this ring will grow slowly with the growth of the user's cultivation. When practicing in the previous life, it seems to have a completely different understanding, and the benefit that comes with it is that the storage space of Xumijie has gradually expanded.

Not only that, it turned out that the Sumeru Precepts could not contain life, but not long ago, Zhou Yin discovered that there was gradually a little spiritual energy in it, even if it was weak, it would be no problem for Zhou Chen to stay in it for a few days.

So, to put it bluntly, the rhetoric about driving the hairball away just now was just to tease it.

That's it.

On the second floor of the inn, in Wangjiang Yazuo, a delicate and pretty girl is playing the pipa in her hand and singing in a low voice. , tied near the end of her hair, and the black jade wreath hangs down with tassels, revealing the other side of her bright and white neck.

Wu Feng stared at her for a long time, then turned his head and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Chen, who are you showing your face like this, since you have already come out, you should cheer up and enjoy yourself. At that time, we will go to Qinggumen, with the jade spirit in our hands, what do we want?"

After finishing speaking, he put a chopstick of food into his mouth, and the corner of his eye could not help drifting to the singing girl.

The singing girl seemed to notice something, she raised her head slightly, just in time to meet Wu Feng's gaze, quickly smiled shyly, and lowered her head.

Chen Zhong sighed: "Xiaozhi is my daughter after all... Or, let's forget about marrying Patriarch Lexian as a concubine?"

Wu Feng sneered: "Are you crazy?! This matter has been decided long ago. The Qinggumen even prepared the bride price. It's a small matter for you to repent rashly, but it's a big matter for offending the Qinggumen. Then the ancestor of Lexian came out. Don’t you think that just by us two alchemy cultivators, we can provoke countless disciples of Yuan Empress cultivators?”

Chen Zhong fell silent.

Wu Feng took a soft breath: "I know that you still think of the love of father and daughter to Xiaozhi, and I don't want to part with it, but those who achieve great things don't care about the trivial, and offer such small favors as jade spirits, others may forget them in a blink of an eye, and conclude an in-law relationship." That's the most important thing, Xiaozhi has an outstanding appearance, she will definitely be favored by the ancestor Lexian, and then our position in the Qinggumen will be truly stable."

After learning from the painful experience, Chen Zhong gradually figured it out, and his brows relaxed: "You are right."

Wu Feng smiled and said: "That's right, come here, drink, I'm tired of those days of practicing hard, but it's a pity that the Jinghai Sect doesn't even cook very well. It is comparable to the largest restaurant in Lingzhou City!"

As he was talking, he saw that the singer stopped singing and stood up with her pipa in her arms. He didn't know where to go, so he hurriedly called her: "My lady, if you have nothing to do, why don't you come over and have a drink?"

Wu Feng didn't look more than forty, with long beard fluttering, fairy style, coupled with the manner of clothes, he looked like a high-ranking official who came out of modest clothes.

The girl stopped, but didn't come over.

Wu Feng smiled slightly, took out a gold bead from the sleeve of his robe, and put it on the table.

She hesitated for a moment, then gracefully Nana came over and bowed her knees.

"Hi, you two."

"What's your name? Where do you live and why do you sing?"

"I'm Qinyi, my family is in the Guojia Lane in the east of Lingzhou City. My father is seriously ill, so I have to show up to sing and sing. Fortunately, the owner of this restaurant and my father are old friends, so they are willing to take me in."

Even when she spoke, she was full of charm, even though she was careless, Wu Feng felt pleasing to the eye with every gesture.

He is also famously fond of women, but there has never been one who suits him as much as this girl.

"Qinyi, Qingyi, really a good name, you play the pipa well, this golden pearl will reward you."

The girl was a little moved, looked up at him, and quickly lowered her head again.

This timid fragility made Wu Feng laugh, he took her hand, and put the golden bead into her hand.

"If you are willing to follow me, you will not only have this golden bead in the future."

The girl hung her head and said nothing, the pink color spread from her neck to her cheeks.

Wu Feng was very satisfied.

"You wait for me in Room [-], Tianzi, and I'll be there later."

When the girl walked away with the pipa in her arms, Chen Zhong frowned: "We still have to hurry, and that girl is not a monk, so she just brings her a burden!"

Wu Feng smiled and said: "The red candle tent is warm, at the moment of the spring night, junior brother, why have you learned to enjoy these bliss in the world after so many years? Although this girl is only a mortal, her figure, tsk tsk, I dare say, these years The women I have ever slept with are not as good as her, as long as a little training, she will be a beauty, and if Patriarch Le Xian also falls in love with her, she can borrow flowers to offer Buddha!"

"Okay, take your time, I'll go back to my room first."

After saying that, he got up and went downstairs to his room.

The author has something to say: The reason why human nature is complicated is that it cannot be explained by simple good and evil. Even the most ruthless people have an unknown weakness deep in their hearts, or people who usually look kind and harmless , also often have an evil side, Chen Yunzhi's father, Chen Zhong, is the best example.
