Everyone owes me a favor

After Chang Boning went down the mountain, he stopped between the sky and the earth, seeing the size of the sky and the earth, he was stunned for a moment.

If you stay in the same place for too long, you will always have such problems.

Besides, Chang Boning was never good at deciding where he was going.

The last time he went down the mountain, it was still because of Feng Ru.

Now, he couldn't think of where to go for a while, so he was at a loss.

Fortunately, a voice sounded in his ear in time.

"If you are confused, why not come to Jiuyi and play a game of chess."

Thinking of his new friend, Chang Boning showed off his face slightly, put one foot on the ground, turned into a streamer, and rode away with the wind.

……

Among the Nine Yi Jingmen.

Jing Yiyan and Chang Boning sat facing each other, with a chessboard in front of them, and two jade lamps, each holding black and white.

Jing Yiyan picked up Hei Zi and said with a smile: "Mr. Duan Rong has been thinking too long."

Chang Bo Ning held Bai Zi on his fingertips and stroked it lightly: "It's Daoist Jing playing against me, so of course we can't be sloppy."

Jing Yiyan propped her cheeks and laughed at him: "The desire to win is so strong, is it still the Duan Rongjun I know?"

Chang Boning: "With the jade of Nine Yi as a bargaining chip, I must give it a go."

Jade produced in Jiuyi, inheriting the beauty of the world, and receiving the spirit of outstanding people, the best Jiuyi jade, a piece as big as a thumb, can be equivalent to a city, and the top-quality Jiuyi jade is even more priceless.

Originally, Chang Boning's trip was purely for discussing chess players, and he didn't want to take advantage of it. When he met Jing Yiyan in the study room, he accidentally saw the pen holder made of top nine yi jade, so he couldn't help admiring it for a while.

Jing Yiyan offered to use Jiuyi jade as a strategy for the game between the two.

When Chang Boning went out this time, he was looking for rare treasures in the world, as a wedding gift for Feng Ruyu.

So he didn't refuse, took out twenty first-class spirit stones, and was about to make a note, Jing Yiyan shook his head and said: "I don't want these things."

Chang Boning obediently asked: "Then what does Brother Jing want as a bet?"

Jing Yiyan pondered for a while, raised her index finger, and tapped her eyes to signal him.

Chang Boning imitated his movements, and touched the eye veil in front of his eyes that was blowing up with a gust of wind.

Chang Boning was surprised: "...This is just an ordinary moon shadow gauze, not something rare."

Jing Yiyan: "I appreciate people and things, I don't like to judge by value, I just look at whether I like it or not. My friends never leave this thing, which always makes me curious."

After saying that, Jing Yiyan held up a small fan, put it against his lips, and said politely: "It makes me happy to take away a friend's belongings and see him depressed."

Chang Boning stared at Jing Yiyan for a moment, then said softly: "Brother Jing is very nice."

This exchange is clearly not equivalent, even if he loses, there will be no loss.

He wanted to give the Nine Yi Jade to himself for a legitimate reason.

Jing Yiyan raised her eyebrows: "...Oh?"

Chang Boning said firmly: "I know Brother Jing's intentions, so I will live up to my good intentions and fight with all my strength."

Jing Yiyan: "..." He thought that Chang Boning was a little dazed, but he didn't expect it to be so interesting.

Chang Boning's dual-purpose ability is very poor.

When he was thinking hard and calculating chess moves, Jing Yiyan was able to look at and appreciate him wantonly.

Jing Yiyan asked: "If you lose this round, how do you plan to repay it?"

Chang Boning kept his eyes on the chessboard: "Listen to Brother Jing."

Jing Yiyan: "If you lose a game, I will let you stay here for one night?"

Chang Boning replied calmly: "Well."

Jing Yiyan: "...ha, forget it." With Chang Boning's chess skills, he can make him stay here for the rest of his life.

After thinking deeply, Chang Boning made a move, and then recovered from the chess situation, blinked his eyes: "Huh? What did brother Jing just say?"

"Nothing." Jing Yiyan had already figured out the few moves he would make next, and what Chang Boning made was not a surprise to him.

He followed up casually, and asked again: "What's the matter with your eyes?"

As expected, Chang Boning was not good at double-tasking, once he was absorbed in the matter, he couldn't answer the question, and obediently replied: "It's the fault caused by the insufficiency of the womb."

"Can it be cured?"

"Master has treated me, but with little effect." Chang Boning said, "I didn't see very clearly at night before. Fortunately, after the treatment, this illness has improved a lot..."

Speaking of this, Chang Boning's eyes lit up, and he fell down.

He raised his head and said apologetically, "Ah, let me go."

"You talk on purpose to disturb my mind." Jing Yiyan conceded the bet, straightened up, and slapped him with a smile, "Lord of Fengling, you really have thoughts."

Chang Boning: "...?"

Thinking back just now, he found that he had indeed been talking all the time, so he apologized in a daze: "I didn't mean to."

"That's all." Jing Yiyan said in a gentle manner, "It's a good deal to trade you a secret."

Chang Boning didn't remember what he answered just now, it seemed that it was related to his eyes, and it was not a secret.

For some reason, Chang Boning always feels very comfortable when getting along with Jing Yiyan.

Jing Yiyan stood up from the futon: "Mr. Duan Rong, sit down for a while, I'll go get the Nine Yi Jade."

Chang Boning nodded: "Thank you."

Not long after Jing Yiyan left, Jing Sanchai stepped into the door on her own, wanting to ask for two books from the elder brother's study, and just about to greet him casually, she raised her eyes and bumped into Chang Boning in front of the chess table, and was stunned for a moment: "... Brother Chang?"

Chang Boning turned his face away, and said with a dignified smile, "Sanchai has gone home?"

Jing Sanchai: "...um."

Why does this sound so weird?

Just at this time, Jing Yiyan came in with the jade in his arms, saw Jing Sanchai, and couldn't help chuckling: "Little brother, do you want to play a game too?"

Jing Sanchai turned around, and just about to speak, she was taken aback by the radiant jade in his arms, and stared, "What are you doing?"

Chang Boning followed the prestige, couldn't help being surprised, got up quickly and said: "Brother Jing, this..."

He originally intended to ask for a piece of jade the size of a pen holder, to carve it back and give it away as before, but unexpectedly the jade in Jing Yiyan's arms was far bigger than he imagined.

Jing Yiyan was calm: "Mr. Duanrong, Jiuyi Jingmen seldom participates in worldly affairs. If there is no grand event in the world, I will not participate. This original jade can be regarded as a gift from Jingmen through the hand of Duan Rongjun." The jade of Jingmen is particularly nourishing, and it is carved to make a pair of pillows. Firstly, it can create a good image of a pair, and secondly, it can help regulate Qi and gather spirits. I hope that Mr. Duan Rong will spend more time and carve it for me."

These words were very tactful, but Jing Sanchai felt chills run down his back when he heard it:

——According to what he knew about his elder brother, the softer his smile and the nicer his words, the more ulterior motives his elder brother had.

In the end, Jing Yiyan actually turned that fox-like smiling face to Jing Sanchai: "Don't be jealous, little brother, I have prepared the gift you are going to give, and it is as thoughtful and precious as him."

Jing Sanchai: ... Get out, who is jealous! ?

"This..." Chang Boning hesitated for a while, took off his veil, and put it on the chessboard, "Thank you Brother Jing for your kindness, Chang accepted it. This thing is also given to Brother Jing, please don't take it Dislike."

The jade of Nine Yis is really precious, and Chang Boning deserves to accept it.

Before leaving, Chang Boning still secretly left the more than 20 first-class spirit stones in the chess cup as his heart.

He diverted to Qinglianggu and Yingtianchuan, and informed Feng Ruyu of his marriage again.

Finally, Chang Boning went to Danyang Peak.

Like Jingmen of Jiuyi, Danyang Peak has not cared about worldly affairs for many years.

But unlike Jiuyi Jingmen, Danyang Peak's indifference to world affairs is mostly out of helplessness.

The former Danyang Peak Lord, Zhiyue Lord Qu Chi, devoted most of his thoughts to cultivating his apprentice Han Jing.

Everyone thought that Han Jing would be the next master of Danyang Peak.

As a result, Han Jing became the only Taoist disciple who disappeared in the disaster of "Leaving the World".

In order to find an apprentice, Lord Zhiyue also broke through his cultivation and reached the state of consummation, so he had to ascend. Qu Chi's younger brother Lin Haoxin hastily ascended to the position of Danyang Peak Lord.

It's a pity that Lin Haoxin has the ability to be a coordinator, and it's really hard for him to ask him to take charge, in terms of his resourcefulness and cultivation.

Thanks to Danyang Peak's deep foundation and many honest disciples, if there are one or two people who are willing to seize power, civil strife in Danyang is inevitable.

But under such circumstances, it is also difficult to make Danyang Peak bigger.

In order to be on the safe side, Danyang Peak and the entire mountain reached a consensus to close the mountain gate, lock the heart gate, practice meditation, and not seek other ways.

Recently, Danyang Peak has rarely heard of the affairs of the world.

Therefore, when Chang Boning told Lin Haoxin about the marriage between Master and Uncle Ruru, Lin Haoxin was surprised: "Ruyou?...Ruyou didn't happen two years ago—"

Chang Boning was silent, and then told many recent events in the world.

Naturally, he didn't mention things that shouldn't be mentioned.

Lin Haoxin was silent for a while after listening.

After a while, he smiled generously: "Things in this world are really impermanent."

After leaving Danyang, Chang Boning imitated Lin Haoxin and sighed softly.

Even if his luck was bad, he sighed a torrential summer rain.

In the afternoon, the rain subsided.

In the sound of cuckoo, thin rain is like smoke.

Holding an umbrella, Chang Boning walked alone in a small mountain path next to Danyang Peak, admiring the flowers in the mountains alone, with a peaceful mind.

Walking to a certain place, he suddenly heard a Qingyue crane cry, piercing the rain curtain, and the sound entered his ears.

Chang Boning stopped abruptly and removed the handle of the umbrella.

In the sky, I saw a white crane with red beak and long neck, spread its wings, circled smoothly, and landed somewhere in the mountains.

Chang Boning stared blankly at the place where the white crane disappeared, took two steps unconsciously, then turned around suddenly, turned his back to the place where the crane's shadow disappeared, and held the umbrella handle with three-point strength, as if hesitating for something.

After closing his eyes and meditating, he turned around again, gathered the oil-paper umbrella in his palm, and tapped his toes on the bluestone steps, which caused several small ripples in the small water-filled pond next to him.

Chang Boning braved the rain and chased the cranes away, and found a small mountain village.

Because he was chasing too quickly, he forgot to restrain his tracks. Chang Boning didn't realize his mistake until he couldn't find any trace of the crane, and realized that there were repeated exclamations from the villagers under his feet.

He patted himself on the forehead in frustration, and then lowered the cloud head, and landed lightly in front of the villagers.

He thought that if the crane disappeared around here, maybe they would know where the crane came from.

When the villagers saw Chang Boning falling from the sky with spotless clothes, they were all in a hurry, as if they had met a god.

They live near Danyang, and they often see visitors riding swords against the wind on weekdays, but this is the first time a fairy has come to their small village.

Just as Chang Boning was about to ask questions, he heard a middle-aged woman in the crowd discussing in a low voice with her companions: "...Look, what did I say, there really is a fairy coming to take him in!"

Chang Boning: "This...sister-in-law, dare to ask you, who is the person?"

The woman was stunned for a moment by Chang Boning's polite words, and then dodged back.

Under the watchful eyes of a circle of onlookers, Chang Boning's cheeks were reddish, and he was a little helpless.

He began to wonder if there was a problem with the title: "Excuse me, sister..."

A scholar in the village who had read some books stepped forward and relieved Chang Boning's urgent need: "This Taoist priest, it's like this. In our village, a strange thing happened recently..."

Chang Boning: "What do you dare to ask?"

The scholar said: "... There is a child who came back from the dead."

According to Xiucai, the child's parents came here after fleeing famine due to floods.

After living there for two or three years, in the winter of last year, my father contracted tuberculosis in the rain some time ago, and my mother took care of me and was also infected.

The husband and wife passed away one after another, leaving only a 12-year-old boy who was not in good health. When his parents left, he was heartbroken and desperate, and the serious illness became worse. It dragged on for several months, and before March, he also followed.

The villagers put his body in the village ancestral hall overnight.

After his parents fell ill and died, their bodies were burned to prevent tuberculosis infection.

This child has lived in the village for many years. The villagers feel sorry for him, and they intend to bury him in the ancestral grave in the village and leave the whole body behind. However, some people worry that he also suffers from tuberculosis. If he does not burn the body, he will not feel at ease. They argue for a long time , also to no avail.

Hearing this, Chang Boning understood: "The next day, did he live?"

"That's not true." A villager interjected, "I was alive and kicking the next day, but I died obviously the day before yesterday. So many eyes watching, how could they be wrong?"

The scholar continued: "Furthermore, after this child wakes up, he doesn't remember the past, and he has changed a lot. He behaves like a scholar, gentle and polite, as if he has been possessed by some filth... ..."

"Even if it's a ghost, it's a good ghost." A young man added, "Two days ago, my Ah Hu was playful and hurt his foot in the mountains. Has Wenquxing descended to earth?"

The scholar also said: "Yes, he seems to know that he is strange, so he told us not to be afraid. He hid himself in the mountains and said that he would not come out easily to scare everyone."

At the end, he sighed softly: "... I don't know if it's bad luck or good luck."

A girl with a blue scarf and hooded head whispered, "It's a good omen. He is accompanied by a beautiful big bird, which seems to be protected by auspicious signs..."

After a lot of chatter, the scholar asked: "Master Taoist, look..."

Chang Boning pondered for a while, and said, "I want to go see him."
