It was raining lightly in the morning. Wang Qiang woke up very early, but he didn't want to move. He leaned against the window and listened to the ticking sound on the eaves.
He rarely meditates after waking up in the morning, nor does he meditate, let alone spend half an hour breathing and practicing.
Right now, he wants to go to the snow-capped mountains and start practicing Buddhism after meeting the old monk.
What he didn't expect was that even in the early morning rain, there was also a faint fragrance of flowers, which instantly made him feel refreshed after drinking too much wine last night.
Thinking about autumn and the flowers that are in season in autumn, they are competing to complete the blooming of life before the earliest snow comes.
Then work hard to produce seeds that will germinate next year.
Leaning against the window, I thought about what it was like to be on Tianhuang Mountain with Ping An, Xiao Ling'er and Zhufeng's junior sisters that year.
After killing all the monsters all over the mountain, Elder Meng suddenly arrived and led a group of people away alive.
Since then, he has rarely encountered such monsters, because Old Man Meng did not allow them to enter the depths of Tianhuang Mountain.
Not to mention Wang Qiang, Chen Xiaoyan took the disciples from Tianyun Mountain there the day after tomorrow and never went there again.
However, this autumn, not only did he not wait for his junior sisters from Tianzhu Peak to accompany him, he was also chased by killers from the Chen family in Loulan, thinking about the fisherman by the lake...
If it weren't for the injury and inconvenience, I'm afraid he would be like that Sanhao old man and have to share life and death with him before he gives up, right?
With his current realm and swordsmanship, it shouldn't be difficult to cross the Tongtian River, and he still wants to keep going until he goes to Xuefeng Mountain and meets the old monk, his master.
At this moment, Chun'er shouted outside the door.
Wang Qiang sighed and had to wash up before going out. He planned to leave today for Tongtian River.
He wanted to talk to the monk Buli by the river and ask the old monk if he could accept him.
Before I even reached the living room, I smelled a strange smell. I even vaguely wondered if Chun'er had picked autumn flowers and inserted them into the vase in the living room.
The moment he was about to step into the living room, he immediately understood the reason.
There were only Chun'er and a strange woman in the living room. The woman looked a bit like Sima Jingyun, but she had a more calm and solemn atmosphere.
At this time, he had already stepped into the living room with one foot and couldn't escape.
Thinking of Si Jingyun's explicit hints yesterday, he had no choice but to step forward, clasped his hands and said, "I'm Wang Qiang of Zhufeng. I've met Madam."
Yun Shuiyan, who got up early, left Sima Jingyun in his room and came over early just to chat with Wang Qiang alone.
Unexpectedly, Wang Qiang also woke up early. He pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Sit down and talk. You can have breakfast in a while."
Wang Qiang carefully sat down next to the table, looked at Chun'er beside him and asked: "Chun'er, where is your young lady?"
Chun'er thought for a while and smiled: "Miss was too tired yesterday and is still snoozing now."
In desperation, Wang Qiang had no choice but to say to Yun Shuiyan: "Since I have completed the elder's order, I plan to go to the snow mountain today. Madam, please tell my junior sister."
It can be said that Wang Qiang is so ambitious right now that he doesn't even look down upon the old man Sanhao who knocked him off the cliff before and almost died.
Not to mention the possibility of encountering other killers on the road. After all, how do those guys know their own cultivation level now?
If the Chen family in Loulan doesn't know, then Tiandao Peak in Tianyun Mountain won't know.
The old man Sanhao most likely thought that he had died at the foot of the Broken Heart Cliff, or that he was seriously injured and was lucky to be alive...
This time, he could secretly experience the process of how Senior Brother Zhufeng pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger.
Yun Shuiyan said "Oh!", thought for a while and asked: "Wang Qiang, what are you doing in the snow mountain? Do you have any relatives at home? Where is your home?"
Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Junior, I went to the snow mountain to meet a senior and practice Buddhism with him... I have been practicing Buddhism with my master since I was a child, and I have never met my parents... "
Regarding his own life experience, Wang Qiang, like Ping An, was unwilling to mention it in front of others.
However, seeing the junior sister's mother in front of her, she had no choice but to reply truthfully, but in her heart, she thought about leaving Baixue City after seeing her junior sister for a while.
"Okay, why are you becoming a monk?"
Yun Shuiyan was startled and thought to herself that her daughter had finally met someone she liked. How could she go to the snowy mountains to become a monk?
Then he asked with concern: "It doesn't matter if you haven't met your parents, this will be your home from now on... Well, don't you want to go to the snowy mountains?"
Wang Qiang thought to himself: I didn’t say I wanted to become a monk either? He sighed and replied: "I just went to the snow mountain to practice Buddhism, but I am not a monk. After all, I am still a disciple of Zhufeng."
Yun Shuiyan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Chun'er and smiled: "Look, why hasn't breakfast been served yet?"
Chun'er said "Oh!" and ran out of the living room.
Seeing Chun'er leaving the living room, Yun Shuiyan put the brocade bag in his hand on the table, carefully took out two jade pendants from it, looked at it carefully, picked one and handed it to Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang was startled, but he had to accept it.
What was under the tentacles was extremely warm, but it was a piece of white jade engraved with a dragon-shaped pattern. When touched gently, it looked like suet, and it was obviously a piece of beautiful jade.
Yun Shuiyan smiled and said: "These are not treasures. They are two jade pendants made by my master in Baixue City when Jingyun was born. One of them is a phoenix..."
"Don't blame me for being abrupt. My Jingyun has numerous suitors in Snow City, but she doesn't look down on her. I finally waited for you to come to my door today. How about we settle your affairs?"
Wang Qiang was even more shocked when he heard this. He never expected that his junior sister's mother would be so decisive and straightforward.
In just this moment, he compared the female disciples of Tianyun Mountain with his experiences over the years, as well as Sima Jingyun's competition with the Chen family on Bamboo Peak that day...
I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to like the female disciples from the peaks of Tianyun Mountain. After all, he doesn't know if the master will come back in the future?
Thinking about it, junior sister is the most suitable match for me...
He even wondered if Old Man Meng had done this intentionally. He gave one of the elixirs to his junior sister and asked him to take the other after he reached the snow-capped mountains.
But he didn't expect that he would swallow it in his belly halfway between life and death.
Thinking of this, Wang Qiang had no choice but to stand up, bow deeply, and give Yun Shuiyan a big gift: "This junior doesn't even have a place to live, how can he take good care of his junior sister?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Shuiyan couldn't help laughing and said: "What are you afraid of? Jingyun only has one younger brother. Now that he has gone to the Snowfield Holy Land, won't this huge family property belong to you in the future?"
Seeing Wang Qiang's shy look, Yun Shuiyan became more and more happy as her mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law.
In her eyes, there is no one in the world who is more suitable to be her son-in-law than Wang Qiang. After all, after getting married, her daughter should not leave the house.
Whether Wang Qiang came to the door or not, it was the same in her eyes.
As long as her daughter is happy, she, as a mother, is happy. Besides, she has a younger brother practicing in the Holy Land.
Seeing that Yun Shuiyan had finished speaking, Wang Qiang had no choice but to continue: "Senior, I am really just a poor monk. I don't even have a single gem on my body. This..."
"Silly boy, you are so cute."
Yun Shuiyan sighed, looked at him and said seriously: "The elixir you gave Jingyun yesterday is your best engagement token. Her father and I have no objections."
At this moment, Chun'er walked in with breakfast.
While placing breakfast on the table, he looked at Wang Qiang and said with a smile, "Will Chun'er call senior brother uncle from now on?"
Wang Qiang's face turned red, and he was so shy that he couldn't speak when he looked at the two people in front of him.
...
Amid uneasiness, Wang Qiang hurriedly finished his breakfast.
When he was thinking about whether to say goodbye to his junior sister, Sima Mingkong walked in with Sima Jingyun, who was very shy and pinched the corners of his clothes.
"Brother, are you leaving now?"
Although Sima Jingyun knew that Wang Qiang was going to the snowy mountains, he didn't expect that his mother had made it clear and still couldn't keep this idiot, and still looked like she was in a hurry to leave.
Wang Qiang nodded, clasped hands with Sima Mingkong and said, "Junior Wang Qiang, I have met Mr.
Sima Mingkong nodded and said with a smile: "Sit down. From today on, we are a family. Don't be so polite. If you feel uncomfortable, I will feel uncomfortable too."
Chun'er chuckled, stepped forward and took Sima Jingyun's hand, and whispered a few words in her ear.
Sima Jingyun stared blankly at the phoenix jade pendant on the table. She was a fool. She also knew that Wang Qiang should have agreed to her mother's proposal of marriage.
Otherwise, there would not be only one jade pendant left on the table.
Thinking of this, Sima Jingyun took a deep breath and asked, "Senior brother, how long will you be practicing in the snow-capped mountains?"
Wang Qiang thought for a while and replied: "At most one year, I will definitely return to Baixue City tomorrow autumn. Then we will go back to Zhufeng together to see if Yu Zun has left seclusion."
Sima Jingyun nodded deeply: "That's fine, I'll wait for you at home."
Yun Shuiyan smiled faintly, looked at Wang Qiang and said, "The way I see it, how about you get married in Baixue City first during the Mid-Autumn Festival next year and then go back to Tianyun Mountain?"
After speaking, he glared at Sima Mingkong again, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Master, look, can I arrange it this way?"
Sima Mingkong slapped his thigh, took Wang Qiang's hand and smiled: "I was so nervous yesterday that I was shocked. This time I owe you a huge favor."
Wang Qiang was a little shy at first, but he was shocked when his father-in-law talked about what happened yesterday.
He quickly replied: "This is Elder Meng's instructions. How can I dare to be careless? It's said that I was a little worse on the way, so I let someone snatch it away..."
Speaking of what happened yesterday, Sima Jingyun was no longer shy.
He stepped forward and took his mother's hand and said, "Mother's words are very long. Let me leave first, and I will tell you slowly."
Whether it was the changes in the master's sect, the Chen family in Loulan City, or even an old man in Baixue City.
In Sima Jingyun's view, this is all a grudge between Wang Qiang and Zhufeng Senior Brother Li Xiuyuan. She will not let her family get involved, there is no need.
Wang Qiang thought for a while and then said: "Junior sister, I can go to Tongtianhe myself. You don't need to send me out of the city. Give me a horse..."
When Sima Mingkong heard that something was wrong, he couldn't help but ask: "Is it possible that someone in Baixue City still dares to try against you?"
Wang Qiang smiled bitterly and said: "Junior sister, let me talk to you two slowly about this matter. It's best not to tell anyone about this matter before I come back from the snow mountain."
How could Wang Qiang dare to get Sima Jingyun into trouble again before his wings grew strong?
Chun'er also urged: "Master and Madam, I will let the young lady explain this to you in detail later. Let me leave first. He still has to catch a boat to cross the Tongtian River."
Sima Mingkong saw that his daughter obviously knew the secret, and said nothing more at the moment.
He just patted Wang Qiang on the shoulder and asked: "I know Elder Ouyang from the Snowfield Holy Land. By the way, who are you looking for when you go back to the Snow Mountain?"
Wang Qiang glanced at Sima Jingyun. He didn't want to lie to his father-in-law, so he had to hand over his hands and reply: "I don't want to go to the Holy Land. I want to go to Xuefeng Mountain to meet an old monk."
"Brother, let's go. I'll take you out."
Seeing that his father was in trouble, Sima Jingyun had no choice but to hold Wang Qiang's arm with one hand and walked out of the living room while shouting: "Chun'er, go get a horse."
Until the three of them left the living room, Sima Mingkong still didn't understand.
Looking at Yun Shuiyan, he asked: "Madam, do you understand, who is that boy going to the snow mountain to find?"
Yun Huoyan looked at Wang Qiang's daughter, feeling extremely happy. After hearing this, she glared at her man.
He said softly: "I once heard my daughter say that next to Xuefeng Mountain is Meishan Mountain, and there are saints on Meishan Mountain..."
