Zha Shou broke into the rivers and lakes

He was in a good mood when he said something to you, and I finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Shut up! When did you see me eat?! Not only you are hungry, but I am also hungry now! But this barren mountain Ling, where can I find food for you? It would be nice to have a few bowls of tea!"

Zi Yan was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and said in surprise: "Yuchen hasn't eaten today? Why didn't you say it earlier? I was also confused. I forgot to cook in excitement when I saw you coming. Wait a moment, I will Here we go."

I wanted to say something bluntly, but Zuo Yin and Qu Ling beside me were really arguing fiercely, so I could only smile helplessly: "Thank you, Sister Zi Yan."

Zi Yan lifted her skirt, got up and said with a smile: "Where is it, didn't I cook for you? You talk to Xiang Qi first, and I will cook some dishes you like for you."

As soon as Zi Yan left, Zuo Yin and Qu Ling followed Zi Yan like hungry wolves, and Bai Huanyin went to nowhere, only Xiang Qi and I were left staring at each other in the huge hall. The surroundings were quiet, and even each other's breathing could be heard clearly.I really don't understand what Zi Yan is thinking, let me stay here alone and chat with the taciturn Xiang Qi, is it possible! ?

For a while, the whole hall was terribly quiet, and the air pressure became lower and lower with Xiang Qi's presence.I didn't dare to make a sound, I twisted my body anxiously, lowered my head and played with my fingers, hoping for the stars and the moon, hoping that Zi Yan would come back soon after cooking. If this stalemate continues, I will die sooner or later.

Fortunately, within a short while, Zi Ran came in with the brewed tea. Seeing that there were only me and Xiang Qi in the room, she was slightly taken aback, but she didn't say much. She respectfully put the tea on the table and showed me a Suspected of a strange smile of victory, he ran away in a flash.

The corners of my mouth twitched, she couldn't have moved something in the tea, could she?I raised the tea bowl and looked at it carefully for a while, only to think that the tea bowl was red and beautiful, but I couldn't see any other clues, but I didn't dare to drink it lightly, so I had no choice but to hold the tea bowl in a daze.

Maybe Ziran's tea distracted me a little, and I was no longer as afraid of Xiang Qi as I was at first.That's why I freed up my mind to think about what happened along the way. When I entered the door, Xiang Qi said that I was the key. What are they planning?And what role did I play in this matter?Just now I have been busy with Zi Yan's relationship with Zi Yan, and I have forgotten the business, I can't help feeling a little annoyed, secretly cursing myself for not prioritizing things.

Afterwards, Xiang Qi and I remained relatively silent, and it took about a stick of incense before Zi Yan came back to the hall with the delicious food, and behind her were Qu Ling and Zuo Yin with shining eyes and drooling...

Zi Yan put all kinds of dishes on the round wooden table one by one. After adding bowls and chopsticks, she dragged me to the table. Out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently saw the tea bowl in my hand, and she was startled. He asked me nervously, "Yuchen, have you ever drunk the tea here?"

I was confused by Zi Yan's startled look, I just said: "It's a pity that I forgot this cup of tea just now."

Zi Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then her expression changed, and she said angrily: "Zi Ran, get out!"

The door trembled slightly, and Ziran poked her head out cautiously like a turtle, and said in an inaudible voice: "Sister..."

Without further ado, Ziyan walked over angrily, twisted Ziran's left ear, and said angrily, "Do you know what this tea bowl is for?! What if Yuchen drinks something wrong?! "

Ziran screamed in pain, shrinking her body and begging for mercy, "Sister... sister... I know I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again next time... it hurts..."

"Usually you like to play tricks on others, why didn't I just turn a blind eye? I thought you would stop doing these childish things when you grow up, but unexpectedly you got worse and even bullied Yuchen! If I don't take good care of you today, I'm really ashamed to be your sister!"

With tears in Zi Ran's eyes, she whimpered, "Sister... I was really wrong... please forgive me..."

"No! I can't watch you make mistakes again and again!"

Zi Ran's left ear was as red as fire, but Zi Yan didn't want to let go at all, I couldn't help but hesitated for a moment and said: "Sister Zi Yan, it didn't cause a catastrophe anyway, let her be spared. After you have taught her like this, she must have developed a memory, and the bad roots she has had since she was a child can't be corrected once or twice, it is better to take it step by step."

"Yuchen, you don't know her well, I'm going to get rid of her bad roots this time!"

"Sister Ziyan, even if you want to teach me a lesson, wait until later, it's a waste to let such a delicious meal go cold."

Hearing this, Zi Yan stopped her movements, glanced at me, then at Zuo Yin and Qu Ling who were eagerly looking at her, took a deep breath, and loosened the grip on Zi Ran, "Forget it, this time I Let me spare you once, if you dare to do it again, don't blame me for not being a sister." After a pause, he said: "Sit down and get ready to eat."

Immediately, Ziran seemed to have received amnesty, covered her ears and nodded repeatedly, and sat obediently in the banquet without moving.

Zi Yan filled a bowl full of rice for me, and I took it with a smile.Seeing that the atmosphere had eased a little earlier, I put a mouthful of rice into my mouth and said after deliberation: "Sister Zi Yan, I wonder what is the mystery of that tea bowl?"

While Ziyan was busy serving me vegetables, she said: "This tea bowl is slightly different from ordinary tea bowls. There is a red Tengyun Nian beast printed on the bowl. The Nian beast has been a symbol of bad luck since ancient times, but it has the ability to connect yin and yang. , to seal its viciousness with red, it is suitable to use it for sacrifice, so I usually use this tea bowl to pour tea as an offering to my ancestors. Because of this, it has a little bit of yin, if ordinary people use it, it is not only disrespectful to the ancestors, It may also be contaminated with unclean things."

I nodded thoughtfully, since I was a child I didn't believe in monsters and ghosts, if I really drank it, I would have diarrhea for a few days at most, this time Zi Yan is quite a fuss.But it would be a good thing for me to kill Ziran's prestige.

During the banquet, the lamps and shadows were shaking, the wine and meat were fragrant, and the sound of chopsticks touching the porcelain bowls kept coming and going. Everyone was busy with the food in the bowls, and there was not much conversation.After everyone had eaten and drunk enough, Zi Yan put away the bowls and chopsticks and sent Zi Ran to clean them.Although Ziran had a thousand reluctances written all over his face, Fang had been taught a lesson by Ziyan, so he could only go to carry out the task without a single complaint.

Seeing Ziran's grievance, I couldn't help laughing: "Sister Ziyan and Ziran have such a big difference in personality, it's hard to imagine that they are sisters who have lived together for more than ten years, she has not learned half of your gentleness and virtuousness at all. "

Zi Yan said: "Sometimes I really suspect that she is not a woman, her personality is no different from that of an ordinary man, and she likes to wield knives and guns. You should have seen her pistol, right? It was because she begged me for a month before I helped her." She bought it and wanted to teach her how to use golden silk, but she thought it was too feminine and lacking intimidation and momentum, so she just tied it around her wrist and never used it."

I wondered: "Golden silk? Is it something Zi Yan used in the martial arts conference?"

Zi Yan smiled and nodded, "Golden silk is soft and easy to hide, has excellent toughness, and is extremely sharp. People who use it can kill people without much effort. It is perfect for assassination."

I said: "It really is a good thing." After a slight pause, I changed the topic, "Yuchen is a little confused, please tell Zi Yan."

Zi Yan put away her smile, stared at me for a while and said: "You must want to ask me about the martial arts conference that day?"

"En. Back then, you and Xiang Qi were clearly divided into two factions, but now why do you come together again? And what is the key point Xiang Qi mentioned? Are you... plotting something?"

Zi Yan sat up straight, put her elbows on the edge of the table, glanced at Qu Ling and Zuo Yin, and signaled them to avoid them for a while.Anyway, they were already full, and knowing that there was no benefit in staying here, they voluntarily walked out of the hall, and even closed the door for us knowingly.

The bright moonlight shines through the half-closed window, casting a silver light on the ground.The breeze blows the branches and leaves outside the window, rustling, and the cicadas sing endlessly. It is also a special enjoyment to hear the croaking of Qu Ling and Zuo Yin.

Zi Yan lit a few candles again, and the room suddenly became much brighter, and then she said: "There are so many things involved in it, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. If you have something unclear, just ask me." yes."

The closer people are to the truth, the easier it is to be afraid. When the truth is far from what you think, it may not only subvert wrong assumptions and inferences, but even your beliefs and worldview.

I straightened my chest unconsciously, clutching the hem of my clothes tightly with both hands, and said anxiously: "Sister Zi Yan, please tell me." With the trembling back of his hand, he said softly: "Chen'er, don't be afraid, I'm here."

"First of all, let's start with the day when the leader died..."

"Wait." I interrupted: "Sister Zi Yan is talking about the leader of the Raksha Sect, Leng Ning?"

"Exactly."

I lowered my head and pondered for a while, slowly replaying the experiences of the past few months in my mind, rearranging my thoughts, and then said again: "Sister Ziyan, I think you should tell me about you first, Xiang Qi and Leng Ning leader three It’s a human relationship. You are the master of the Ruobing Pavilion, and Xiang Qi is the master behind the scenes of the Xingyun Sect, why did you gather in the Rakshasa Sect at the same time?”

Zi Yan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled lightly and said: "Yuchen, it's been a long time since I saw you become smarter. I didn't intend to tell you about this, but since you asked, I can't hide it anymore."

"Xiang Qi, Xiang Lin, Leng Ning, and I lost our parents when we were young. We met in a martial arts competition to recruit relatives by chance. We have played together since then because we share similar interests. It can be said that we grew up together. with."

I frowned, and soon heard the question, and said directly: "If I remember correctly, Xiang Lin once said that after the death of the father of Leng Ning, he was adopted by his father's friends. How could he be with you?" Mixed together? And according to you, Xiang Lin should also know the leader Leng Ning, but why didn't he have the slightest impression when I tortured him?"

Zi Yan said: "It's normal that he doesn't remember. Don't worry about Yuchen, listen to my sister slowly. At that time, we were all about XX years old, and we didn't know what recruiting relatives was. We only knew that the people on the stage were It happened that we both knew a little about martial arts, so we wanted to try our skills on stage. As the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, so we formed a friendship."

"The leader of Leng Ning was indeed adopted by someone, and the person who adopted him also adopted us. That day, the leader of Leng Ning took us back to his home and asked his adoptive father to adopt us who were helpless. The adoptive father's family is not well-off and cannot support us together, so in desperation he handed Xiang Lin over to a childless farmer next door to raise him as his adoptive son."

"Because the two houses are not far from each other, even if they lived in two separate rooms, Xiang Lin and Xiang Qi did not cry when their brothers were separated. The four of us still mix together on weekdays, and occasionally practice with a few monks who have gone down the mountain for alms. Practicing martial arts, Master Leng Ning's own martial arts foundation is extraordinary, and his comprehension ability is extremely high, so he quickly became famous."

"Life has been peaceful until one day half a year later, the farmer next door and Xiang Lin disappeared overnight. There was no sign before, and even all their belongings disappeared out of thin air that night."

"Since then, the original life of four people has become three people. At the age of 15, Xiang Qi took a token to look for Xiang Lin, and I and Leng Ning established the Raksha Sect and Ruobing Pavilion respectively. After finding Xiang Lin two years later, the two brothers founded the Nebula School together."

"The three sects had nothing to do with each other, and they were independent. Until then, when Master Leng Ning met you, Ruobinge and Luocha sect began to collude in private, and Xiang Qi also relieved the burden of being the head of the Xingyun sect. Hand it over to Xiang Lin, and join the Rakshasa sect soon."

"We have never told Xiang Lin about these things. I'm afraid even he himself never thought that his ten-year-old playmate would become the leader of the world's number one cult."

Zi Yan picked up the tea bowl, drank the tea in one gulp, fixed her eyes on me and said, "Do you still understand after hearing this?"
