There was a candle flickering on the table in the room, and through the bed cover, one could see in the dim place beside the table, a slender silhouette floating lonely in a propped position.
Mu Qing was bleary-eyed, a little regretful that he had fallen asleep to death, but when he pulled his arm, he felt okay, the woman was still there.
She rested her head on her shoulder, curled up like a baby, breathing steadily and slowly, and slept deeply. Mu Qing could imagine that her eyebrows must be extremely beautiful when she was sleeping.
Mu Qing made great determination, spent a lot of effort, and spent half a cup of tea before carefully getting out of bed.
The woman at the table had been sleeping with her eyes closed. When she heard Mu Qing getting out of bed, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sir, you finally woke up!"
A burst of sweet fragrance came to her side, and Mu Qing knew who the woman was when she heard the voice, and hissed: "Sister Yueshan, please keep your voice down."
Liu Yueshan glanced at the bed, her mouth slightly curved, and she helped Mu Qing slowly come to the table and sit down. Mu Qing complained a little: "Sister Yueshan, how long have you been waiting in the room?"
Liu Yueshan pursed her lips and said, "I just came here not long ago."
Mu Qing twisted his neck back and forth, and every bone in the back of his neck creaked like fried soybeans. He saw the red and tender palm prints on Liu Yueshan's lower jaw through the candlelight and knew that the other party was lying. He didn't believe it: "Last night you Are you injured? You just arrived in town this morning, so you should have a good rest."
Liu Yueshan was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was doing. She shook her head and said, "Sir, this slave is not injured. She has really had a good rest. You guys slept all day long before you were worried."
Mu Qing tilted his head, raised his shoulders and froze in the air, and said in surprise: "I have been asleep for so long, what about A Yun, oh, Miss Ye Yun?"
Liu Yueshan saw through it without saying anything, and said: "I came to call you to dinner last night, and found that you couldn't wake up no matter what, so I went to see Mr. Fei Ji, and Mr. Fei Ji said that this was normal." Liu Yueshan frowned and recalled: "I didn't remember what Mr. Fei Ji said about it being caused by the spirit fetus leaving the body. It involved your cultivation."
"What time is it now?"
Liu Yueshan made an estimate and said, "It should be three quarters after the garrison."
"I actually slept for more than a day." Mu Qing's eyebrows were slightly furrowed. He looked worried at the woman sleeping peacefully on the bed, and asked Liu Yueshan: "How are Mrs. Wang and the others doing?"
"Mrs. Wang is now able to get out of bed and walk. I heard from Sister Xiuwei that after taking a very precious elixir, even her external injuries healed quickly."
As Liu Yueshan spoke, she picked up the new medicine and clothes she had prepared and motioned for Mu Qing to stand up. Mu Qing had injuries on his body and his movements were mostly unchanged. Although he didn’t know who was doing the dressing and clothes before, he was still fainting. He passed by, but now he was awake and felt a little uncomfortable, and said: "Sister Yueshan, I will do it by myself. I'm not used to you being like this."
Liu Yueshan kept moving her hands. Although there was only one candle lit in the room, she changed Mu Qing's medicine and clothes very neatly. Mu Qing's refusal made her a little surprised and said: "Since Mr. You have taken me in, and you will want me to be your housekeeper from now on. It is my duty as a slave to serve my master."
"Hey, Sister Yueshan, didn't we agree that we should treat each other as brother and sister? You know I'm not keeping you as a servant."
Liu Yueshan lowered her head to straighten the corners of Mu Qing's clothes, then raised her head and said seriously: "It's the right thing for a sister to take care of her brother. My life is like duckweed. My brother grabbed the duckweed in his hand out of kindness. Ping has nothing and can only do menial work to repay her."
Mu Qing was a little distressed, but because his right hand was injured, he could only awkwardly enjoy Liu Yueshan's service. Suddenly, he heard a slight laughter coming from the bed. Mu Qing and Liu Yueshan were both happy, "Ayun (sister-in-law), you Are you awake?"
After all, Liu Yueshan is a married woman. What she said can make the two young people Mu Qing and Ye Yun stunned for a while. When Mu Qing heard Liu Yueshan's name, his eyes were bright, his eyebrows were raised, and he sat upright. Ye Yun, who had been eavesdropping on the bed for a while, was even more embarrassed and angry, "Sister, please stop shouting!"
Liu Yueshan brought another set of clothes prepared on the table to the bedside and smiled at Ye Yun: "Sister, I don't know whether you are a world of martial arts or practitioners, but for us secular women, we all sleep on the same bed. Now, can this relationship be fake?"
Ye Yun raised her head and glared at Mu Qing, who looked deeply convinced, and said to Mu Qing: "The reason why we slept for so long is indeed the sequelae caused by the separation of the spirit fetus. You should be more careful when encountering this kind of situation in the future."
"I know." Mu Qing looked cautious, but the corners of his mouth curled up and said, "Don't do such stupid things in the future."
The two people's eyes collided, and a faint warmth appeared between the eyebrows. Mu Qing looked cautious, but the corners of his mouth curved and said: "I know, but I just don't do such stupid things in the future."
"Okay, okay, come and wash your face quickly, you have plenty of time to flirt with each other." Liu Yueshan brought a basin of hot water, "I just went outside to get hot water and met my sister Xiuwei. She said that if you wake up, Let’s go to the private room to eat together.”
In the corridor outside the box, as soon as Ye Yun heard that her true disciple Bai Zhi was also there, she began to warn Mu Qing: "Forget it in front of my sister, you can't yell after entering. Our identities have been agreed upon a long time ago." , you are my apprentice, an anonymous apprentice."
Mu Qing rolled his eyes, nodded in agreement and walked into the box. At this time, everyone was sitting at the table. At the dinner table, Wang Yeqing was asking Tantai Feiji about cultivation issues. After taking the Shuiling Pill, her state was stable. , the whole person's temperament became much deeper and quieter. When he saw the three people coming in together, he stood up and said sincerely: "Master Mu Qing, how are you doing?"
"It's okay. Have the people in Iron Bone Village made arrangements?"
"Brother Sun and the others are all over there at the Roasting Inn. I came from there." The girl who spoke looked like she was eighteen or nineteen years old. As soon as Mu Qing came in, she never took her eyes away and looked up and down. Nodding slightly, "Sir, is he the master's wife?"
Bai Zhi told everyone that Ye Yun dressed up as a man and kept calling her husband, so they all smiled knowingly. Ye Yun walked up to Bai Zhi in a few steps and patted her apprentice on the head, "What are you talking about?"
After being beaten, Bai Zhi felt as if she had found a lost treasure. She quickly pulled Ye Yun to sit down nearby, her eyes widened, her pretty face that was still slightly pale, and she muttered: "It's not the best."
Ye Yun glanced at Mu Qing, who coughed and smiled bitterly at everyone: "Don't get me wrong, we are anonymous disciples and sword masters."
Tantai Feiji smiled strangely and said seriously: "Sit down first and talk about something while we are here."
He looked at Mu Qing and said, "I heard from Mrs. Wang that you are the talker among the group."
Mu Qing was a little surprised and looked at Wang Yeqing. Wang Yeqing nodded and said with a smile: "I went to meet an old friend during the day. We will talk about this when we have time. We have to go back to Suzaku City together. You should be the one to make the decision."
Tantai Feiji said slowly: "Before my elder brother went back, he went to the place where you all fought, but there were no traces of identity left at the scene. Even if we trace back, we can't find any causal lines."
Ye Yun said: "In other words, the strength of the person who attacked and killed is at least not much different from Uncle Feiyu, otherwise Uncle Feiyu would have found out the hidden connection."
"Yes." Tantai Feiji nodded and said: "My eldest brother is good at the art of cause and effect, and he also has Xiaojing as the most implicated target. If the other party was only an early stage transcendent, he would have deduced it directly."
"After he returned, he also found the Twelve Earthly Branches' Hutan. The other party was in the family's forbidden area at the time. With witnesses present, it can be confirmed that the man in black robe is a fake."
Mu Qing frowned and said, "The other party is hiding under the water and has not yet surfaced. Mr. Fei Ji seems to be worried about something."
Tantai Feiji nodded and said: "I mentioned it to Mrs. Wang just now. Because Xiaojing has caused so much harm to everyone, it is really hard to prevent the other party from hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. I can always escort you to Zhuque. city."
Ye Yun shook his head and said: "This is too passive and is not a good idea."
Tantai Feiji naturally admitted the inappropriateness of this proposal, "Indeed, it is very likely that everyone will only be worried and hurry along the way. When everyone finally separates and relaxes, the other party will start to retaliate. The enemy is hiding us. Ming, so I have a second way here."
"any solution?"
"Do nothing." Tantai Feiji said, "I will leave directly when the time comes."
"Fishing?" Mu Qing looked at Tantai Feiji.
Tantai Feiji nodded and said: "If you want to plan, prepare for the worst when things happen. Assuming that revenge will definitely come, the three of you can't be together forever. Why don't I leave directly and give the other party a chance to advance in advance?" Take revenge."
"What's the back-up plan?" Ye Yunmi looked at Tantai Feiji. She had already guessed that Tantai Jing was almost killed this time. The Tantai brothers would never give up until the person behind the scenes was found out. .
Tantai Feiji took out three boxes made of cold jade, "The things inside are all the same. They are top-quality Kun beads, treasures that can be transported through space."
Ye Yun's eyes moved slightly, she raised her head and said, "Since Kunzhu is here, where is Pengzhu?"
"The Pengzhu is naturally in the hands of my eldest brother and I." Tantai Feiji said calmly with some regret in his eyes: "Miss Ye has long seen that I am a clone. After all, my clone is not strong enough. Next time you Directly activate the beads inside, and my true body will come here."
A living person is actually a clone? Even Wang Yeqing had never heard of such a strange thing, not to mention that she had been asking the other party for advice on cultivation issues for so long. However, time always makes it easier for people to calm down. She quickly thought of another thing and reminded: "Actually, Mr. Tantai doesn't need to be so careful. I just figured out something."
She asked Tantai Feiji: "Sir, do you think the other party knows that you are a clone?"
Tantai Feiji looked at Ye Yun and said: "The remnant aura of true energy used by the other party has the same origin as my Tantai family. People who are familiar with my situation should be able to guess it."
Wang Yeqing nodded and said: "The opponent should not only be in the early stage of transcendence, but also powerful. He knew that you were a clone, but he did not attack forcefully. In the battle that night, he remembered to be conservative and cautious. What he is most afraid of is actually that even if he kills us, you will also We can know who he is. So I think the other person is so cautious and will not expose himself again in a short time."
