Self-cultivation in the world of monster hunting

Lu Xiang completely wrapped himself in a cloak on the rickety carriage, leaving only two fingers and two eyes outside.

The reason for keeping two fingers is that he needs to turn pages while reading the story book.

This month, Shen Yunrou's "Bamboo Horses in Pairs" came out with a new book. Lu Xiang hurriedly bought it when he saw it. blind.

"Bamboo Horses in Pairs" takes the children of the Qin family in Zizhou as the protagonists, and tells the soul-stirring emotional entanglement between Qin Wenyu, the father-son of the head of the Qin family, and Qin Huaiqiu, the adopted son.

Xingyuan couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is written in such a mess! Lu Xiang, don't read it!"

Said that Xingyuan was going to grab the book, Lu Xiang hurriedly took the book and avoided it, and said anxiously: "What are you doing, this is not a mess, it is very touching! I look forward to this meeting and wish them well What about the two?"

Xingyuan sneered and said: "If you want to be kicked out, go bless it. This story is fake. How could there be any relationship between Qin Wenyu and Qin Huaiqiu? Shen Yunrou knows how to write nonsense! Didn't you take money to write it last time?" It's a fake story, but you still believe her, why are you so stupid?"

Lu Xiang retorted dissatisfiedly: "What is nonsense, what Master Shen Yunrou wrote is true! What happened last time was to maintain peace in the world, and everyone made sacrifices."

Xingyuan shook his head helplessly, and said: "You silly boy, you just don't hit the south wall and don't look back, now I have to hit you. Do you know whose child we went to the birthday party for?"

Lu Xiang asked, "Whose is it?"

Xingyuan said: "Who else could it be? It's Qin Wenyu's."

"Ah?" Lu Xiang looked at Xingyuan in panic.

Xingyuan continued to attack Lu Xiang, saying: "Qin Wenyu got married two years ago, and his wife is also an orphan adopted by the Qin family. Qin Shuyue was raised as the eldest lady of the Qin family. Qin Wenyu and Qin Shuyue are the real childhood sweethearts, but Heaven is jealous of beauty, Qin Shuyue passed away a year ago due to dystocia. Qin Wenyu and his wife have a very good relationship. It is said that they are still mourning her wife and have not continued. As for Qin Huaiqiu, it is said that they will be engaged soon, and the partner may be another name of the Qin family. Adopted daughter, Second Miss Qin Jingrui. So Qin Wenyu and Qin Huaiqiu are impossible, wake up!"

Lu Xiang couldn't close his mouth after hearing this, so he turned to Sijun and asked, "Is this true?"

Sijun coldly nodded in affirmation.

Lu Xiang yelled "ah" and said, "I don't know why, why didn't you say it before!"

Xingyuan said: "I thought you knew it, who would have thought that you would miss them that much!"

Lu Xiang was dumbfounded, stunned for a long time, and gradually changed from not being able to believe it to accepting the reality, and then his whole face collapsed, looking completely shocked.

Xing Yuan was amused by Lu Xiang's behavior, and said with a smile: "Why, you still feel so sincere after reading the script?"

Lu Xiang has been chasing this story for almost two years, and he has always believed in it, and it has almost become a feeling in his heart.Just when he thought he was about to witness this touching couple with his own eyes, he was slapped in the face and told that it was all a lie.

Lu Xiang's heart was about to break, he fell down and covered his face, and said angrily, "I don't believe in love anymore!"

After that, Lu Xiang didn't wake up all the time. He arrived at the gate of Qin's Manor. Lu Xiang was still heartbroken because of his feelings for the story. He was so sick that Sijun had no choice but to hug him from the carriage down.

The child's birthday party is tomorrow, but many guests have arrived today, and there will be a small party at noon, so the entrance of Qin's Manor is already very lively.

Although Lu Xiang failed to accept a demon in the past few months, and was still at the bottom of the list of celestial masters, he was still famous all over the world. As long as he saw the little chrysanthemum on his head, no one would know his identity.

So being hugged by Sijun off the carriage attracted countless eyes, no matter how thick-skinned Lu Xiang was, he couldn't bear it, and finally said: "Let me down."

Sijun stared at Lu Xiang for a long time, and after making sure that Lu Xiang was fine, he finally let Lu Xiang go.

Before he took two steps, he saw two handsome young masters welcoming guests from a distance.

From the enthusiastic address of others, Lu Xiang knew the identities of these two people.

These are the two protagonists in the story of "Bamboo Horses Make a Pair". The taller one with handsome features is Qin Wenyu, the eldest son of the Qin family, and the shorter one with a powdery face is Qin Huaiqiu, the adopted son of the Qin family.

Oh my god, the real person looks really good too!This idea came to Lu Xiang's mind, and he couldn't help being ashamed, and kept his mouth shut, for fear that he would talk nonsense when facing them.

The two greeted a few guests in a hurry, and walked quickly in front of Lu Xiang and Sijun. Qin Wenyu had a decent face, even if he was overly enthusiastic, he would not be offensive. He saluted Lu Xiang and Sijun , said in a loud voice: "Lord Sijun, Mr. Lu, I have admired you two great names for a long time, and seeing you two today is really extraordinary. I thought that the two nobles would not come because they are busy with business, but I did not expect to be lucky enough to meet you. It's the first year banquet, the two of you can come, the humble house is really full of splendor."

Sijun nodded slightly as a response, but Lu Xiang didn't dare to look at Qin Wenyu because of shame.The two didn't mean to look down on anyone, but it still made people feel a little arrogant.

Qin Wenyu didn't say anything, but Qin Huaiqiu, who was following behind him, raised his eyebrows, showing dissatisfaction, and was stopped by Qin Wenyu when he was about to speak.

Qin Huaiqiu stopped what he was about to say, but his expression was still not very good-looking.

Qin Wenyu clasped his hands again and saluted, and said: "According to Lord Sijun's seniority, it is true that my father should come forward to greet you. Before, I thought that the two of you would not come, so my father did not make any preparations. This is my disrespect, so I will send someone there now." Inform father that the two of you can go to the guest room to rest for a while, and father will be very happy if he hears that you are here."

Lu Xiang hurriedly said: "No, that's not what it means. Well, Mr. Qin, you and Sect Leader Qin are both busy. You don't need to take care of us. Let us rest by ourselves. Don't bother."

Qin Wenyu exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Lu Xiang repeatedly said that he didn't need to take care of him, so he finally stopped being polite, and asked the rest of the disciples to take them to the guest room to rest temporarily.

The Qin family's manor is not small, neither too luxurious nor deliberately simple. The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are well arranged, and the mountains and rivers alternate with each other, which is quite elegant. It perfectly combines the northern compound and the Jiangnan garden, which is novel and interesting.If someone who doesn't know walks into this Qin's manor, he will probably think that the owner is not a person from the rivers and lakes, but a literati who plays with words.

After walking through many courtyards, he finally arrived at a secluded courtyard that was rarely disturbed by anyone. The disciple leading the way finally stopped.

Standing at the gate of this small courtyard, Lu Xiang heard a woman arranging disciples to tidy up the guest room. Her voice sounded soft and warm, making people feel very comfortable. Just listening to the voice, she felt that she must be a very nice girl. .

Just as he was thinking about entering the gate of the small courtyard, the owner of that gentle voice also appeared in Lu Xiang's sight.

That girl was in her twenties, her appearance was not outstanding, at first glance she even looked a bit bland, but her beauty was that her skin was as white as snow, her eyes were extremely gentle, and that appearance made people feel comfortable at first glance.

Lu Xiang had a crush on the girl almost at first glance.

The girl hadn't seen that Sijun and Lu Xiang had already entered the door, and when she arranged for the disciples to be busy, she was not idle, and she carried a huge wooden carving decoration into the house.

Seeing the girl struggling, Lu Xiang immediately regained his energy. He walked up quickly, stood in front of the girl and said, "Ma'am, shall I help you?"

The girl stared at Lu Xiang, her cheeks were blushing, so Lu Xiang took the things from her hand, carried them into the room, the girl froze for a moment, and then slowly followed.

Lu Xiang put the ornaments away, and Sijun also entered the room, staring at Lu Xiang with a dark face.

Lu Xiang didn't notice that the air in the room was getting colder at all, and said to the girl with a smile: "My name is Lu Xiang, Mr. Qin arranged for me to live in this courtyard just now, please help me clean up so well, the rest I'll do it myself."

The girl blinked her eyes and said, "Yes...it's Mr. Lu!"

Lu Xiang smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Miss knows me?"

When the girl saw Lu Xiang, her face turned even redder, her eyes flickered, and she said after a while, "Of course I know, it has been spread all over the world, Mr. Lu is a young hero, there is no one who doesn't know Mr. Lu..."

"Oh, no, it's just luck." Lu Xiang scratched his head and said, "I still don't know what the girl is called?"

The girl bowed again and said, "I... my little girl, Qin Jingrui."

"So it's the second lady, sorry." Lu Xiang quickly took a step back and saluted Qin Jingrui.

Qin Jingrui raised her eyes to look at Lu Xiang, then quickly lowered her head, her eyes were filled with amazement and admiration for Lu Xiang's outstanding appearance.Lu Xiang was so stupid that he couldn't see anything, so he felt that this sister was really shy, and he hesitated for a long time and refused to speak.

After a while, Qin Jingrui finally raised her head, and was about to talk to Lu Xiang again, when she suddenly saw Sijun standing behind Lu Xiang with an expressionless face.

Qin Jingrui turned pale with fright, Lu Xiang looked back strangely and found Sijun standing behind them.

Lu Xiang pulled up Sijun's sleeve and introduced him: "This is Sijun, the second lady must know about it?"

When Qin Jingrui heard Sijun's name, Qin Jingrui was even more frightened, hurriedly saluted, and said: "I have seen Mrs. Sijun, my little girl... then go, go to the next door to prepare bedding for Mrs. Sijun."

"No need." Sijun still remained expressionless, and said coldly, "We share the same bed."

Qin Jingrui opened her eyes round at once, and slowly shifted her gaze to Lu Xiang's face, Lu Xiang's expression was taken for granted.

"You...you..." Perhaps thinking of the rumors in the Jianghu, Qin Jingrui's face was a little ugly, she couldn't continue speaking halfway, her face flushed red, and finally lowered her head in a panic, said "excuse me" and immediately ran out of the house , before walking a few steps, Sijun suddenly made a sound again.

"Second miss."

Qin Jingrui paused and stopped nervously.

Sijun's cool voice came again: "I'm sorry to trouble the second lady to prepare more firewood for the kang, he is not from the north, he is afraid of the cold."

Qin Jingrui responded and fled in a hurry.
