Li Qingyun's words were a bit abrupt. Why did he suddenly mention the Xiao family?
Qin Yishan said calmly: "Family matters are not decided by us juniors. How old were we ten years ago!"
Xia Ziyan was confused at first, but it wasn't until he saw Xiao Yinyue that he understood why Li Qingyun mentioned the Xiao family, so he said: "There are many people named Xiao in the world, and she is not from the Xiao family in the capital. "
Li Qingyun spread his hands and replied: "I didn't say she was from the Xiao family in Beijing. I just thought of the Xiao family when I heard her name, so I came here to talk."
It can be heard from the words that the relationship between the Xiao family and the royal family was quite good.
The Qin family and the Xia family seem to have an unharmonious relationship with the royal family.
After only half a word of conversation and no conversation, Qin Yishan said goodbye and left.
Xia Ziyan also led a group of people to the other side.
After being disturbed like this, Li Qingyun seemed to have lost interest in talking, and was about to leave. Before leaving, he smiled and said to Xiao Yinyue:
"Although you have nothing to do with the Xiao family in the capital, the Xiao family in the world is a family. Since we have met each other, we are destined. If you encounter any trouble in the sect, you can come to me at any time. If I can help, I will definitely help you. Reach out.”
With that said, he waved and walked away.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered something and turned back and said:
"However, it's still the same old rule. We should pay attention to fair dealing in everything, and the same goes for helping."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Yinyue to speak, she turned around and left, leaving only a handsome back, a bit unruly.
After he walked away, Wei Xiaoxue whispered: "Yueyue, I don't feel like he is a good person."
Xiao Yinyue shook her head slowly and replied softly: "Speaking directly can sometimes be upright!"
After such a small farce, the cabin became much quieter.
The speed of the flying boat was very fast. After half an hour, it began to land slowly. Everyone on the cabin saw the shocking scenery from a distance, as if they had arrived in a fairyland on earth.
Since they were young, they have always heard adults say that the Seven Star Sect is a very big sect, and there are many powerful immortals in it who can fly around in the sky. It is this sect that protects Xiyue Kingdom, so that everyone can live a happy life. Peaceful and happy life.
Therefore, every parent hopes that their children can enter the Seven Star Sect to practice. Unfortunately, the sect only recruits a few disciples every year, and only those with extremely high talents have the opportunity to enter.
Three years ago, Wei Xiaoxue's brother Wei Xiaolong was lucky enough to enter the Seven Star Sect after being a little more relaxed. Today, Xiao Yinyue and Wei Xiaoxue finally had the opportunity to enter.
Although they can only do handymen, for ordinary rural girls, being able to join a sect and do handywork is better than living in the countryside!
When he was in the academy, Meng Xingran once quietly told Xiao Yinyue that the current Seven Star Sect was actually in decline and had long lost its glory. However, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and it was still one of the seven major sects.
When the flying boat landed in Seven Star Square, the friends were stunned by the sight before them.
All around the square, there are peaks towering. From near to far, they are all well-proportioned pavilions and pavilions. Some are built in valleys, some by streams, and some even built on cliffs.
Although it is already night, all the pavilions are still lit with lights, colorful and dazzling. Even the legendary heaven is probably nothing more than this, right?
On the highest mountain peak, there is a tall building, as if floating on the clouds. On the top of the building, three majestic ancient Chinese characters for "Seven Star Sect" shine, giving people a soul-shaking sense of oppression.
Is this the down-and-out sect that the dean mentioned? Xiao Yinyue couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.
That night, Xiao Yinyue and Wei Xiaoxue were assigned to different places. The sect's kitchen was located next to the stream at the mountain gate, while the Sutra Collection Pavilion was behind the main hall of the main peak.
One is at the mountain gate, and the other is at the highest peak of the mountain gate. It seems that it is not far away, but Xu Junhao, the deacon of the outer gate, told Xiao Yinyue that it is more than thirty miles by walking. For practitioners, it can only be reached in the blink of an eye, but For ordinary people, it would take half a day to walk there.
The key is that they are all handymen, how can they be allowed to wander around?
Their wish to live together and take care of each other came to nothing.
Fortunately, Xiao Yinyue has been relatively independent since she was a child and can take care of herself. However, Wei Xiaoxue, who looks tall and strong, is more worrying. She has been favored by her parents since she was a child. She is also relatively simple and impulsive. Once she gets into trouble, It won't be over yet.
However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Xiao Yinyue could only give a few words of advice before leaving in a small flying boat with other handymen on the same journey.
When we arrived at the bottom of the main peak, Xiao Yinyue was received by a male steward who looked to be in his fifties.
The steward led Xiao Yinyue forward and said casually: "My surname is Xin, hard-working Xin, and my name is Xin Yongfu. I am the handyman steward of the main peak. I am in charge of the handymen of the entire main peak. Just call me steward Xin." ”
Xiao Yinyue immediately replied obediently: "Okay, Manager Xin, I hope you will take good care of me in the future."
Xin Yongfu smiled lightly and said: "What's there to take care of? Just do your job seriously every day."
After a brief pause, Xin Yongfu continued to introduce: "There are thirty-six handymen on our main peak. When you first come in, you can only do some simple tasks and clean the area around the Sutra Pavilion."
On the way, Xin Yongfu casually introduced some of the sect's rules and requirements. Occasionally, he met some people passing by in a hurry. Some of them would say hello to Xin Yongfu, and most of them didn't care at all about these two insignificant people. people.
Before they knew it, they were halfway up the mountain behind the main peak.
This is a relatively gentle hill, attached to the main peak like an adult carrying a child on his back.
There is a row of two-story red wooden buildings built on the hill. Compared with the buildings seen along the way, this row of buildings looks much simpler, but compared with the leaky thatched houses in Xiaoyin Yueshan Village , but it can be regarded as an exquisite pavilion.
After arranging Xiao Yinyue's residence and giving her two sets of clothes specifically for the Seven Star Sect's handymen, Xin Yongfu left after explaining a few words.
These are the two westernmost huts on the second floor. The inner ones are bedrooms, which are very simple. They only have a bed, a wardrobe, a desk and a stool. The outer one contains buckets, washbasins, dishes and chopsticks. The utensils and furniture are all old, but the quilt and sheets on the bed are brand new. Xiao Yinyue is very satisfied with this environment.
After Xiao Yinyue briefly washed herself, she lay down on the bed.
Arriving in a strange environment, Xiao Yinyue couldn't calm down for a long time. She tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She had both expectations for the future and a bit of worry. Involuntarily, she missed those days at Yunying Academy.
Early the next morning, on the ninth floor of Zhaixing Pavilion on Tianshu Peak of Qixing Sect, leaning against the railing, an elegant middle-aged man stood facing the wind, watching the rising sun rising slowly from the distant sky, and saw thousands of golden lights and morning glow. The sky was full of rays, and the glow dyed the sky red, and also dyed the mountains red.
His face was calm, as if he was deep in thought, but also as if he was not thinking about anything, he was simply admiring the spectacular sunrise.
"Sect Master Su, we have found clues. Xiao Beichen and Lu Xinyan most likely had a child back then, but they hid it so well that they didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl. They didn't find out the specific date of birth, and they didn't know where they were living. "
A man in black came quietly behind the middle-aged man and reported to him softly.
Su Tianjun didn't seem surprised, and his expression didn't change at all. He didn't turn around to look at the man in black, but continued to look at the rising sun in the east. After pondering for a while, he said slowly:
"Then continue to investigate secretly. This news must not be leaked."
"Yes, obey!"
After saying that, the man in black left quietly, as if he had never appeared.
Thinking of Xiao Beichen, Su Tianjun naturally thought of the heroic and energetic young man in white.
He was once his most proud disciple, the pride of the sect, and the hope of the future of the Seven Star Sect.
Unfortunately, everything has changed since he fell in love with the demon sect saint Lu Xinyan, and there has been no Xiao Beichen in the Seven Star Sect since then.
Su Tianjun sighed softly, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of worry could not help but appear in his eyes.
At the same time, although Xiao Yinyue didn't sleep well at night, she still got up early in the morning.
She opened the window of her bedroom and looked around. She saw rolling mountains surrounded by clouds and mist. Some buildings could also be seen vaguely, just like the fairyland on earth that she had seen in paintings. Xiao Yin Yue felt a little unreal, as if she was in a dream.
The air here seems to be fresher than outside. Breathing in is refreshing and very useful.
After a while, people began to get up one after another, and the whole building began to become lively.
After washing up, Xiao Yinyue put on the clothes specially designed for handymen, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and was surprised by herself.
In the Seven Star Sect, the clothes worn by handymen are of the lowest level, but for Xiao Yinyue, this is already the best-looking clothes she has ever worn.
With some anxiety, Xiao Yinyue opened the door, walked out of the room, and came to the corridor.
At this moment, Xin Yongfu came to the yard downstairs and blew the bamboo whistle in his mouth. Everyone immediately hurried out of their rooms and came to the yard downstairs, and consciously lined up. Stand aside, women stand aside, there are more men than women.
Xiao Yinyue naturally followed everyone to the courtyard and stood in front of the women's team.
Through her observations, she discovered that the eight buildings to the east were occupied by male handymen, and the three buildings to the west were occupied by female servants. There was a building in between, which was a place for eating and storing tools.
As a newcomer and a beautiful girl, her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
But because Xin Yongfu was standing in front, no one said anything. Everyone just looked at her curiously.
