Hua Ruxue thought for a moment and expressed her opinion, "According to historical records, it is indeed Yun Qianmei's fault. She was entrusted by others to be loyal to others, but she only focused on satisfying her own selfish interests."
"If it were the history of the Chang Ying Yun Sect, then Yun Qianmei would be a full contributor, allowing the monks to easily obtain merit and avoid death."
If there were no beast tides in the world, no monsters would escape from the Forest of No Return and attack the city. There is no doubt that the wooden box would definitely be sought after by everyone.
Yun Qianmei just did something that was beneficial to the human race. There were only a few people like Qingyang Su who cared about the lives of monsters and beasts.
In the end, Hua Ruxue came to a conclusion: "It's a merit for people, but it's a fault for monsters."
Moreover, if it weren't for the Qingyang Su family's insistence on the demon protection bracelet, maybe the wooden box would not have appeared at all. The top-level tree demon is an existence that even the monks in the Tribulation Stage cannot shake. Except for the Qingyang Su family, no one would bother to collect the vines of the tree demon.
She only dared to think about this in her heart, fearing that she would be scolded as "ignorant" if she said it. After all, she was also a demon, one who benefited from the Qingyang Su family's demon.
If you accept someone else's good deeds but still say something bad about them behind your back, you're not just a bad fox who doesn't distinguish between good and bad.
Su Zhi held the tea bowl with his left hand, and gently rubbed the edge with his little finger, tapping it unconsciously, three times fast and two slow.
After a long while, he said: "The young master also said the same. It is far more difficult than imagined to make the monster be accepted by everyone."
The two chatted for a few more words. Hua Ruxue turned around and saw Su Yue walking towards them from a distance. Su Zhi behind him suddenly lowered his voice and said:
"When it comes to the Chang Ying Yun Sect, there is one more thing. You asked me earlier if I knew about Su Ruoyu. I secretly checked the records. Su Ruoyu's fake spiritual roots are related to the Chang Ying Yun Sect. Although the treasure she stole has not been found, It is said to the outside world that he has been found, and there is more than one traitor."
"I'm only telling you this, please don't tell anyone else."
Hua Ruxue turned her back to Su Zhi and couldn't see his expression clearly, but she could sense his caution, mixed with some worry.
She was about to turn around and ask something, when she saw Su Yue walking in front of her.
Su Yue was still dressed in blue, and the unusual purple jade pendant hanging around his waist was replaced with a piece of sapphire. He still looked courteous and courteous, but his inquisitive eyes in the past became calm.
He bent down and saluted, "Senior Brother Su Zhi."
Su Zhi picked up the tea bowl, poured him a cup, and motioned for him to sit down and talk.
"This little fox loves novelty the most. Yesterday he took a look at the swing in your yard and insisted on setting one up at Xifeng Pavilion. It's really troublesome to cry and make trouble. Junior brother, please tell me what to do!"
When Hua Ruxue heard the words, she moved her ears. She tried not to pay attention to Su Zhi's exaggeration. She raised her head with expectant eyes and said seriously: "It must be the same as the one in your yard."
The sound transmission runes are engraved on the swing frame. The origin of the swing frame, why the swing is there, and when it is there are all important.
Su Yue briefly explained a few words, and Su Zhi immediately showed a look of surprise, obviously understanding.
"I understand! Thank you, Junior Brother Su Yue!"
After saying that, Su Zhi put down the tea bowl in his hand, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go to Xifeng Pavilion. Hua Ruxue quickly stretched out her hand to keep the person behind. She couldn't go back now before she got the news she wanted.
Hua Ruxue turned her eyes and first brought up a topic that attracted Su Zhi's attention to keep him there. There were some things that she couldn't directly ask about.
Thinking of Su Yin and Su Yue's plan to become Taoist couples, she asked, "When will you and Sister Su Yin hold a marriage ceremony? I will also contribute as a thank you!"
"I would have forgotten it if you didn't mention it. We talked about this the night before yesterday, and it seems that it hasn't been decided yet." When Su Zhi mentioned the fate, he immediately became interested, turned to Su Yue and asked, "Should we discuss it this time? I've been craving your wedding wine for three years!"
Su Yue's ears were slightly red, and he said slightly awkwardly, "I said something wrong yesterday that made her angry. I don't know if the date I just decided will count."
"It counts, it must count! This couple, they have a lot of quarrels. If you coax them more, they'll be fine!"
"Hmm, it turns out that you set up the swing in the yard to make Sister Su Yin happy." Hua Ruxue agreed with a vague understanding.
The two of them looked at Su Yue with expectant looks at the same time. Su Yue had always observed etiquette, and rarely showed other emotions in front of others, even when he had just lost his contracted beast.
When others laugh, he will never put on a grimace and embarrass others. At this moment, he had an embarrassed expression as he didn't know whether to say anything or not. He lowered his eyes to cover up the redness and vulnerability in his eyes.
"Last month she recalled her childhood and said she wanted to sit on a swing. I made one in the yard a few days ago, but she was not happy when she saw the swing. Instead, she never touched it once. Although she didn't say it, I can I can see that she has something on her mind, and since the beast war ended, she often cries alone, and I don’t know what to do.”
Hua Ruxue lowered her head and thought about the truth or falsehood of his words. Although he looked sad and troubled by love, this man had a deep mind and was good at pretending. It was useless to look at his expression.
"Perhaps I have been away from home for too long, and I miss my hometown even more when I see the swing. How about you go back and dismantle the swing?" Su Zhi suggested in a low voice. He has never been able to coax people. It's good that he didn't say that people are pretentious. After dismantling it, it can still be used. Give it to the little fox.
Su Yue smiled bitterly and declined the proposal.
Hua Ruxue pointed to the pear hairpin on her head and said, "Sister Su Yin will definitely like it if you give her the pear hairpin."
When Su Yue heard this, he looked at the pear blossom hairpin with unfamiliar eyes, as if he had seen it for the first time. He praised:
"The hairpin is exquisitely made and the pear blossoms are lifelike, which is very suitable for you. I have prepared a jade hairpin and plan to give it to her during the wedding ceremony. The originally scheduled date was the sixth day of February, but due to the current situation, it may have to be postponed."
Su Zhi heard this and persuaded without any hesitation: "There are no taboos on the sixth day of February. It is a good day. Why postpone it? I often hear people say that brides cry when they get married. Junior Sister Su Yin may have just arrived a few days early. .”
Hua Ruxue: "..."
I really don’t know what’s going on in Su Zhi’s head. In this case, it’s time to figure out the reason for Su Yin’s crying and prescribe the right medicine. At the worst, we need to coax her instead of ignoring her and giving her what she thinks is reasonable. reason.
At first she thought it was Su Yue who made her cry. It seemed that there was something else going on here.
The way Su Yue looked at the pear hairpin was true, it was indeed the first time he saw it, but this was not enough to clear the suspicion. In addition, Su Yin's attitude towards the swing was also very suspicious.
"I have a guess." Su Yue looked up at the two of them, his eyes a little tangled.
Su Zhi raised his hand to set up a barrier, covering the three of them, "You said, we must not spread the word."
Hua Ruxue touched the pear hairpin on her head, to disappoint Su Zhi. The hairpin was within the barrier, and no matter what she said, it would be spread out. However, she believed that Su Yin did not make the sound transmission charm, so it would be okay if she said so.
"Su Yin has always been close to monsters. Two years ago, when Elder Su Huairou was in retreat, she sent her contracted beast to Qingyu Pavilion. It was a sixth-level rabbit monster named Siyun, which looked very similar to Ruyu. It's a pity that this After the second beast wave, Si Yun failed to come back, and Su Yin often stayed alone from then on."
Su Yue blamed himself: "It's all my fault for not protecting Ruyu well at the beginning."
"It has nothing to do with you. Even the elder's contracted beasts will not be spared, let alone you." Su Zhi said a serious word of comfort.
Hearing this, Hua Ruxue remembered that when she met Su Yin yesterday, Su Yin also mentioned Elder Su Huairou's contracted beast. It seemed that this incident had a big impact on her.
"That's not the case. Su Yin once heard something from Elder Su Huairou, saying why there are no seventh-level contract beasts on Qingyang Mountain. She suspected that Si Yun did not die from the beast wave..."
Su Yue paused and did not continue.
This is too unbelievable. There is indeed no level seven monster in Qingyang Mountain, but no one has ever suspected that there is something fishy about it.
The three of them closed their mouths at the same time as if they were forbidden to speak. There was silence everywhere, not even a slight breath, and time seemed to have frozen.
After a moment of silence, Su Zhi seemed to have remembered something and retorted: "Who said there are no seventh-level contracted beasts? Elder Su Huaixin's A Zhao is level seven. You were not there at the time, but the little fox saw it. Do you still remember? , level seven!”
Hua Ruxue nodded in response, Su Huaixin's A Zhao was indeed level seven, but just a level seven monster. At that time, everyone speculated that Azhao was demonized by the evil spirit in the wooden box.
When Su Yue saw this, he didn't say anything, he just breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope I'm wrong."
"Elder Su Huairou went into the Forest of No Return to hunt high-level monsters. The danger was much higher than the low-level monsters we faced. A fifth-level monster appeared during this trip, which was comparable to Mahayana monks. The elders were unable to resist it. Fortunately, several Supreme Elders arrived in time. They were rescued only after backup arrived.”
Speaking of the beast tide, Su Zhi couldn't help but worry, "The number of monsters is increasing and the levels are getting higher and higher. I really miss the time when the top tree demons were still there."
Hua Ruxue followed Su Zhi's words and recalled that the beast tide was indeed dangerous. She had lost her spiritual power several times and almost exposed Foxfire. However, Su Zhi actually mentioned the tree demon again. This was the third time he mentioned the tree demon today. He always felt that something was wrong, like a reminder and a warning.
"When the tree demon is there, it forms a natural barrier. Except for the beast tide, very few monsters can reach the edge of the Qingyang Su clan's barrier." Su Yue looked up and looked in the direction of the tree demon in the Forest of No Return, and said with nostalgia.
"Yes, at that time there were still people who complained about the tree demons being troublesome and wanted to form a group to get rid of the tree demons. Now, there is not a single top-level monster in the Forest of No Return. They started to act coy again and put on a look of regret. It's really a bit You don’t even have any shame! You’re talking about those rotten people from the Chang Ying Yun clan!”
Su Zhi has always been outspoken and merciless in his words. He never cares who the other party is, except the young master of his family.
"Yeah, you bastard!" Hua Ruxue nodded quickly in agreement, looking closely at Su Yue's expression from the corner of her eye.
Su Yue looked calm at first, but after hearing Hua Ruxue's agreement, he coughed slightly awkwardly, interrupting Su Zhi's continued blurting out the truth.
"What senior brother said is that it's getting late and I should go check my homework."
"Junior brother, walk slowly. When you dismantle the swing, you must tell your senior brother. He will definitely go over and help you!"
Hua Ruxue: "..."
When someone tells you how to set up a swing, you just focus on the ready-made one. Is this appropriate?
Wait, there is one more important question she hasn't asked yet. Has anyone else entered Su Yue's yard in the past few days? Ever handled a swing?
Just when she hesitated and was about to catch up with Su Yue and ask directly, she heard a complaint: "Why are you still standing there? Aren't you clamoring for the swing? Why don't you hurry up and follow me!"
Following the sound, Su Zhi quickly walked out of Qingyu Pavilion.
