Mi Lu put the jade pendant back into her purse, and put the purse back into Hu Luyan's hand.

Hu Luyan stared at the purse in a daze for a while, and after putting away the purse, he suddenly said, "I have something for you too."

"what?"

Hu Luyan took out two thin red strings from the clothes on his chest. The red strings were naturally not ordinary red strings, the color was rather dark, and a small round ground snow-white spirit stone was hanging in the middle.

Mi Lu watched helplessly as Hu Luyan solemnly tied a red rope to his wrist, and then stretched out his own wrist: "Help me."

Mi Lu snorted, took the red string without saying a word and tied it to Hu Luyan's wrist.

With just a blink of an eye, the red strings tied around their wrists disappeared.

Mi Lu was taken aback, and hurriedly stuffed the purse on his lap into his sleeve, and touched his wrist in a panic.

He quickly touched the red rope.

But I just touched it, raised my wrist, and looked closer, but still couldn't see anything.

The red rope seems to be invisible, it can only be touched but not seen.

"This is—" Mi Lu had a guess in his heart, "mate rope?"

Hu Luyan pursed his lips, and the shadow cast by his long eyelashes trembled slightly. He was very nervous, and he couldn't suppress the emotion of anticipation.

"I heard that the cultivators in your capital have to find special craftsmen to polish the ropes when they get married. I wonder if this is the case." Hu Luyan said.

Mi Lu was startled and amazed.

He never dreamed that Hu Luyan would go out of his way to polish a pair of partner ropes. The key is who told Hu Luyan about the partner ropes?

"Who did you hear?"

"Others." Hu Luyan lowered his eyelids, rubbing his thumb on the invisible companion rope on Mi Lu's wrist.

From a certain point of view, this can be regarded as trapping Mi Lu with a rope.

He loves it.

He even wondered why he hadn't learned about such things as mate ropes sooner.

Mi Lu was tickled by Hu Luyan's small movements, and the joy was overwhelmed belatedly, and his heart began to beat violently.

Originally, he wanted to ask who that other person was, but he forgot all about it all at once.

"Thank you, I like it very much." Mi Lu suddenly remembered the function of the companion rope, and asked Hu Luyan curiously, "Is it enough to wear it like this? Do you want to do something else?"

"Need not."

Mi Lu's eyes brightened: "And then?"

"Huh?" Hu Luyan asked, "What then?"

"Didn't it mean that two people wearing a companion rope can communicate with each other?" Mi Lu has always been curious about this matter. If the mind is connected, wouldn't Hu Luyan be able to detect what he was thinking?

Hu Luyan thought for a while: "There is such a saying, but the specifics are still unclear. We have to explore it ourselves."

Mi Lu responded, and lowered his head to touch the partner rope on his wrist. Although he didn't show it too obviously, the curved corners of his mouth could not be suppressed no matter what.

It could be seen that he was very happy, and a slight flush appeared on his clean cheeks.

Hu Luyan stared at Mi Lu for a moment, and couldn't help but leaned over to hug Mi Lu's lips.

Mi Lu was taken aback, and involuntarily climbed up Hu Luyan's back with both hands.

However, before this unexpected kiss could go deep, it was interrupted by a coughing sound.

Surprised by the sudden coughing, Mi Lu leaned back subconsciously, turned her head with a flushed face, and met Yan Fu, who had a rather awkward expression, and Yang Rong, who was so bewildered that he didn't even know how to position his hands and feet.

The cough just now came from Liuli who led the way.

Liuli looked like she was not surprised, and said politely: "Young Master, Pavilion Master Yan said he needed something important for you, so I brought him here."

"Oh, good..." Mi Lu was embarrassed to hug Hu Luyan affectionately in front of outsiders, so he quickly pushed Hu Luyan and pulled Hu Luyan to stand up.

Hu Luyan never hides his emotions, he wrote the word "unhappy" on his face when he was disturbed, and stared at Yan Fu and Yang Rong with dark eyes.

Yan Fu: "..."

Yang Rong: "..."

Both father and daughter shuddered at the same time. They were really helpless, so they could only watch, talk and care, pretending that they didn't know anything.

How did they know that Mi Lu and Hu Luyan were doing such things inside? !

If they knew, they wouldn't step here even if they were killed!

Mi Lu quickly collected his mood, and politely gestured to the father and daughter: "It's freezing outside, please come inside."

After finishing speaking, he ordered, "Liuli, go and make a pot of hot tea."

"Yes." Liuli immediately left this place of right and wrong, slipping away faster than a rabbit.

The remaining father and daughter Yan Fu and Yang Rong followed Mi Lu and Hu Luyan into the main hall with bitter expressions on their faces.

Fortunately, with Mi Lu present, even if Hu Luyan was unhappy, he would just keep a straight face and would not get angry easily, which made the father and daughter heave a sigh of relief.

Four people sat facing each other in twos.

Thinking of what to say later, the father and daughter who had just breathed a sigh of relief tensed up instinctively. They looked at each other calmly, and then Yan Fu spoke first.

"Master Mi, some bad things have been spread in both the righteous and the devil world recently, I don't know if you have heard of it..."

Mi Lu quietly squeezed Hu Luyan's hand, and then he turned his attention away from Hu Luyan's body. He was silent for a while, and frowned: "What are you talking about?"

"They said..." Yan Fu hesitated to speak, although he knew that those words were groundless rumors, but it was still a bit difficult to say them in front of the parties involved.

When Yang Rong saw this, he didn't dare to speak out even more, he shrunk his neck like a quail, and glanced cautiously between Mi Lu and Hu Luyan.

Mi Lu waited for a while, but he didn't wait for Yan Fu's words, so he said in relief: "Even though Pavilion Master Yan said that the Qing is cleared, I, Mi Lu, have not even stepped out of the gate of Mi's house in recent days. Naturally, gossip can't hurt me in the slightest."

"Master Mi is very true." Yan Fu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and said in a breath, "Someone intentionally released the news that Master Mi is no longer the former Master Mi, but was brought from another world. Possessed by lonely souls and wild ghosts."

Mi Lu's eyelids twitched, and the hand on his lap suddenly clenched into a fist.

The next moment, a cold hand covered the back of his hand, gently wrapping his clenched hand into a fist.

When Mi Lu looked up, he happened to meet Hu Luyan's dark eyes.

Huluyan was expressionless at first, his stern face was covered with a layer of coldness by the dim light in the hall, but after meeting his gaze, the cold light slowly warmed in Huluyan's eyes.

Mi Lu glanced at Hu Luyan holding his hand, inexplicably gaining some confidence.

He cleared his throat and said to Yan Fu: "Pavilion Master Yan continue."

"Those of us who have been in contact with Young Master Mi must not believe those words, but there are also some people who have never even seen Young Master Mi's face, let alone understand Young Master Mi's personality. They hear that the wind is like rain, and their hearts are somewhat wavering " Yan Fu raised his head slightly, looked at Mi Lu, then at Hu Luyan, and added, "The power of the rumors is amazing. I guess Patriarch Mi and Mrs. Mi have heard about it a long time ago, but they didn't say anything because they were worried about Young Master Mi. Come out, but I think it’s better to clarify and resolve these matters this morning, otherwise the fire will grow bigger and bigger, and a single spark will be enough to start a prairie fire.”

Mi Lu took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I see."

He suppressed the surging tide in his heart, his expression was rather stiff.

The hall was quiet for a moment, and Hu Luyan's voice suddenly sounded: "You just said that someone released the news on purpose, have you found out who that person is?"

Yan Fu said uncertainly: "It should be someone from Wenren's family. The news came from Echeng County, and Echeng County has become the place where Wenren's family holds power."

hear people.

It's another smell.

Hu Luyan was not angry or angry, but the black eyes covered by eyelashes almost set off huge waves.

He seemed to hear the overwhelming voices in his heart, and those voices sounded densely, as if a thousand mouths were speaking at the same time.

kill them.

They must be killed.

Mi Lu was right, even if he gave up looking for his hands and the remaining half of his heart, those people might not stop there.

Those people are really annoying and sticky flies, turning around in mid-air, buzzing non-stop, looking for the right time to disgust him from time to time.

Hu Luyan put five fingers between Mi Lu's curled fingers, interlocked with Mi Lu's ten fingers, only to find that Mi Lu's palms were full of sweat.

He wiped away the sweat from Mi Lu's palms with his hands, then raised his eyes to look at Mi Lu.

Mi Lu's face was frighteningly pale, as if he was in a bad mood, and there were large beads of sweat on his forehead.

Mi Lu didn't notice Hu Luyan's small movements, and kept staring at Yan Fu nervously.

Hulu paused for a moment, then reached out and wiped the sweat from Mi Lu's forehead with his cuff.

Mi Lu was startled, and reflexively dodged to the side. After turning around and seeing Hu Luyan, his expression relaxed a little.

Hu Luyan said, "Your face is sweating a lot."

Mi Lu pursed her lips uncomfortably, took out a handkerchief and wiped it on her forehead indiscriminately: "It's a little hot."

"Does the young master feel hot?" Liuli, who had just finished making tea, picked up the plate and said, "Maybe the charcoal fire is too hot, and the servant is worried that the young master is cold, so I set up three stoves. If the young master feels hot, the servant will take it Take a stove."

Mi Lu hurriedly said, "No need."

Liuli looked at Mi Lu suspiciously.

"It's not very hot now, so don't bother." Mi Lu waved his hands at Liuli, "Liuli, go and do your work."

Liuli went out with the plate.

For a while, there were four people left in the hall who each had their own concerns.

Yan Fu came here not only to talk to Mi Lu, he also had other things to talk to Hu Luyan, but Mi Lu's face was so ugly that the air pressure in Hu Luyan's body was low.

Seeing this situation, Yan Fu didn't dare to say much, and could only look at Hu Luyan from time to time.

Hu Luyan later guarded Liuli and Jade outside, and asked them to take Mi Lu back to the house to rest.

It happened that Mi Lu wanted to be alone for a while, and after saying goodbye to Yan Fu, he went out.

As soon as Mi Lu left, Hu Luyan didn't even bother to maintain a smirk, his expression was as cold as ice, and his cold eyes glanced at Yang Rong who was still sitting on the chair.

Yang Rong was still quietly being a log, but when he suddenly met Shang Hu Luyan's gaze, he shivered with fright.

She quickly shrank her head.

Hu Luyan ordered coldly: "You go out too."

"Okay, okay." Yang Rong got up and ran without hesitation.
