across mountains and seas
Chapter 12 Convergence
There is no instant martial arts in the world, even if there is, it will pay a heavy price.
Jing Lan returned to the room in dismay, and sat down by the desk in despair.
There are several names written on the white paper on the desk, the one with the most ink is Liu Xi's name.Jing Lan was originally sorting out the affairs of her previous life tonight, but halfway through the sorting out, she really couldn't figure out many things, and felt bored, so she took the long sword and went to the courtyard to practice swords.
"Willow! Stream!"
Jing Lan recalled Liu Xi's expression when she left, and she was annoyed and hated.
But what can be done?
Although she is the Patriarch of the Donghai Clan, she cannot force her to leave in the name of the Patriarch.Not to mention how people in the Jianghu would judge her, even the three older brothers and Aunt Hong would stand up and oppose her first.
After all, he still has no strength.
Regret does not make people stronger overnight, instead of being angry with Liu Xi, it is better to think of a way to win her next time!
Thinking of this, Jing Lan's mood mostly calmed down.
"At any time, don't let your guard down, otherwise, you won't know when your head is gone." For no reason, Liu Xi's warning to her tonight suddenly appeared in her mind.
Jing Lan touched her neck, which was where Liu Xi patted with the scabbard tonight.
Yes!
Jing Lan suddenly realized that there is an inner ghost in the family, and her martial arts are mediocre. The most urgent thing is to find out the inner ghost who drew the defense map of Haicheng's organs first!
Early the next morning, Jing Lan ordered someone to call Uncle Jing Jiu.He is an old man of the Jing family, and he is the most familiar with the Jing family.To be able to draw the Haicheng mechanism so clearly, the inner ghost must also be an old man.
Unexpectedly, the person who called Uncle Jing Jiu came back soon, saying that Uncle Jing Jiu had been called by Liu Xi to Zhubingtai early in the morning.
"Understood." Jing Lan calmed herself down. Since she is the head of the family, she should have the appearance of the head of the family. She can no longer have all the emotions written on her face like in the past.
The young man didn't understand what the young master meant, "Young master, should the young one go to Zhubingtai and call Uncle Jing Jiu?"
Jing Lan shook her head, "No need."
"Yes, young master." The boy was about to leave the front hall when Jing Lan called him back.
"Young Madam only called Uncle Jing Jiu today?" Jing Lan asked worriedly.
The servant thought about it carefully, "Not only that, she also invited the fourth young master to go with her."
"Fourth brother still has internal injuries." Jing Lan suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Call for the guards, follow me to take a look."
"Yes!" The servant led the order and exited the front hall.
At the same time, Jing Huan and Uncle Jing Jiu had already led Liuxi around the Zhubingtai, and they were familiar with Zhubingtai.
"Sister-in-law, it's hot here, you should go back earlier." Jing Huan's sharp eyes caught a glimpse of the sweat on Liu Xi's forehead, and he whispered a reminder.
"It's okay, I'm used to it." After Liu Xi finished speaking, he glanced at Jingyue on his waist, "When I was building Jingyue, I stayed in the knife furnace for three full months."
Uncle Jing Jiu was quite shocked. Looking closely at Liu Xi's young age, he had such skills.
"Uncle Jiu." Liu Xi suddenly called him.
Uncle Jing Jiu came back to his senses, "Young Madam?"
"In the past few days, Wei Jianbai didn't try to get down from the natural danger again?" Liu Xi asked in a solemn voice.
Uncle Jing Jiu nodded, "According to the calculation, there has been no movement for three days."
"That's good." Liu Xi said so on his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart.The more silent Wei Jianbai was, the more unpredictable things became.
Jing Huan rubbed the pain in his chest, "That's not good! Just let him escape like this, I'm still holding my breath!"
It's not a good thing that the enemy is dark and we are clear, and we are passive everywhere.
With Wei Jianbai's disposition, how could he give up so easily and just leave?In his previous life, no one would have thought that he would lead an army to attack Dongfuzhou recklessly. The first battle was fought with the lives of [-] soldiers.
Liu Xi felt that he would definitely come back, and the reason why there was no movement for three days was because he must be waiting for something.
"Recover well." Liu Xi only advised.
Jing Huan scratched the back of his head and said with a smile, "Yeah!"
"Uncle Jiu, thank you for bringing me to know Zhubingtai today." Liu Xi turned to look at Uncle Jing Jiu, "I still have something to do here, and I need to ask Uncle Jiu to help."
Uncle Jing Jiu replied sternly: "Young Madam, you are serious. Just tell me if you have anything to say." After all, Aunt Hong specifically told Liuxi that everyone in the Jing family should treat Liuxi with courtesy when she was in Haicheng for a day.
"I want a piece of cold jade steel." Liu Xi cut straight to the point, "I want a weapon that is handy."
Uncle Jing Jiu nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the storeroom and bring it to Mrs. Young Madam." After speaking, Uncle Jing Jiu stepped back with his sword.
Jing Huan asked curiously: "What kind of weapon does sister-in-law want to use?"
"After the weapon is ready, Fourth Uncle, I'll ask you to do me a favor." Liu Xi didn't plan to tell him at this time.
Jing Huan had no choice but to hold back his curiosity, "Okay! Sister-in-law, you saved my life, don't say one thing, I will help you with a hundred things!"
"Fourth Brother!"
In the distance, Jing Lan's voice suddenly sounded, and she rushed over anxiously with a dozen guards.
Liu Xi counted the number of guards calmly, and said in his heart: "Finally, I have learned not to fight alone, but I have made progress."
Jing Huan smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, why are you here?"
"The fire here in Zhubingtai is always on fire all the year round, and sparks are easy to scatter everywhere. I'm afraid that you, brother four, will get burned if you are not careful." Jing Lan didn't look at Liu Xi, but said the words to her.
It seems that he listened to what he said last night.
"I am most familiar with this casting platform. How could it be burning?" Jing Huan didn't understand the meaning of Jing Lan's words. Her sleeve reminded in a low voice, "Xiao Wu, go and say hello to sister-in-law."
"I won't go." Jing Lan's ability to keep her in Haicheng is already the maximum concession.
"Little five..."
"Fourth Uncle, I still have something to do, I'll see you later."
Today's first thing has been done, it's time to do the next thing.Liu Xi didn't hesitate at all, and didn't say much, just explained, and was about to leave Casting Terrace.
"Wait!" Jing Lan looked at her suspiciously, "What are you going to do?"
"Alan wants to hear?" Liu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly.
Jing Lan felt cheated secretly, but still wanted to figure it out, "Say."
"I don't want to say it, but you can still force me to say it?" Liu Xi asked aggressively.
Jing Huan blinked, and subconsciously took a step back.I don't know if my sister-in-law and Xiaowu have a disagreement, and they commit conflicts every day, or it's safer to back off.
The dignified Patriarch of the Jing clan was slapped in public.Jing Lan could only bear it silently, "Come here, follow the young lady."
"Ok?"
"Haicheng is not safe these days. As the Patriarch, I should consider your safety."
Jing Lan replied to Liu Xi.
Liu Xi raised her eyebrows, and there was a hint of surprise hidden in her eyes.
"Then let's go." Liu Xi turned her eyes away from her and was followed by two guards. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and turned her head to meet Jing Lan's slightly startled eyes.
"Something like that."
Although she was praising Jing Lan, she still raised her head slightly, and the inherent arrogance on her body did not diminish at all.The morning light reflected on her face, smearing a rare warm color on her face, blending with her cold eyebrows and eyes.I saw her squinting at the sky, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she clearly didn't have the slightest charm of a fox demon, but she was so inexplicably tickling that people couldn't help but look at her more.
"Let's go." Liu Xi gave Jing Lan a meaningful look, and finally walked away.
Jing Huan lost the words to describe his sister-in-law's beauty, and froze in place.
No wonder the eldest brother likes his sister-in-law so much. How many people can stand such a thrilling beauty?
Jing Lan didn't dare to look at Liu Xi more, and cursed secretly in her heart, "Pink Skull!" She was surprised that Jing Huan hadn't moved for a long time, so she glanced sideways at Jing Huan.
"Fourth brother!" Seeing him lost in thought, Jing Lan gave him a hard abduction.
Jing Huan coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"
"Shouldn't I ask you what's wrong?" Jing Lan asked angrily.
Jing Huan chuckled, "I'm fine!"
"What's better?" Jing Lan didn't want to poke him in front of everyone, she was almost hooked away, "Stay away from her from now on."
"Oh." Jing Huan seems to have no answer.
Jing Lan shook her head and sighed lightly.
But Jing Huan asked seriously: "Xiao Wu, why do I feel that you have been targeting sister-in-law?"
Jing Lan hesitated to speak, and if she said anything else, Jing Huan would probably start to persuade her in various ways, such as "I can't blame my sister-in-law for my elder brother's death".
"No!" Jing Huan suddenly thought of something, "Have you met your sister-in-law before? Otherwise, how could you recognize her as the daughter of the Xishan Liu family at a glance?" Before Jing Lan could answer, Jing Huan thought again One possibility, "Did you guys have any misunderstandings? Otherwise, why would you keep targeting your sister-in-law?"
"Fourth brother..." Jing Lan didn't know how to answer these words for a while.
The more Jing Huan thought about it, the more wrong it became, "That's not right! You have never left Dongfuzhou since you were a child, how could you have seen your sister-in-law?" Even, Jing Huan thought of another even more frightening conjecture, and he hooked his hand with a livid face. He grabbed Jing Lan's shoulder, leaned closer to Jing Lan, and said in a low voice, "A Lan, you are very dangerous!"
"Where is the danger?" Jing Lan didn't know what Jing Huan was thinking.
Jing Huan took another careful look at Jing Lan's feminine face, "Why do I think... are you annoyed that your elder brother was robbed by his sister-in-law? Ah!"
"Nonsense!" Jing Lan was annoyed now, and took advantage of the opportunity to squeeze Jing Huan's side, "Fourth brother, what are you thinking about?"
If the hostility towards Liu Xi continues to be so obvious, it will only make her more and more unreasonable.
Jing Lan realizes this, so she can only restrain her hostility towards Liu Xi in the future, lest her brothers think she has some ridiculous thoughts.
Jing Huan let out a long sigh of relief while rubbing the painful place, "It's not the best!" After a short pause, he hooked Jing Lan's shoulder again, "It still won't work! Let's go, Fourth Brother will take you Go somewhere!"
"Haicheng still has important matters to deal with today..." Jing Lan subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"This matter is equally important!" Jing Huan was not willing to let her go, and pulled Jing Lan all the way to the mountain gate of Haicheng with his shoulders on his back.
Jing Lan returned to the room in dismay, and sat down by the desk in despair.
There are several names written on the white paper on the desk, the one with the most ink is Liu Xi's name.Jing Lan was originally sorting out the affairs of her previous life tonight, but halfway through the sorting out, she really couldn't figure out many things, and felt bored, so she took the long sword and went to the courtyard to practice swords.
