There was dead silence in the door at that time.
Chu Zhaozhao blinked, still a little dazed.
"Zhaozhao, sleep." Chu Qingxiao's whisper came from behind.
At the same time, she clearly felt that a pair of hands reached out and hugged her waist.
When Chu Zhaozhao came back to his senses, his body trembled, as if he was electrocuted, and he stood up from the floor.
She turned back to look at Chu Qingxiao, only to see Chu Qingxiao staring at her with a playful smile.
No matter how slow Chu Zhaozhao was, he realized at this time that Chu Qingxiao and Sanniang were deliberately teasing her!
"Chu Qingxiao! Just wait for me!" Chu Zhaozhao stamped his feet. After saying this, he stood up and walked out of the room angrily.
At the end, she vaguely heard Chu Qingxiao's slightly teasing inquiry coming from the room: "Zhaozhao, are you leaving now?"
Chu Zhaozhao's face became even scarier. She covered her face again and ran back to her room as if she was running away.
Unexpectedly, at the other end of the small courtyard, Yue Jian, who had just returned from washing, happened to see this scene - Chu Zhaozhao walked out of Chu Qingxiao's room with a blushing face. As he walked, he was arranging his chest, a little Messy laundry.
…
"Brother Chu! Such a satisfying thing! How could you not take me with you!" In a wine shop in the east of Tianxuan City, Sun Li slapped the table, drank a glass of sake, and then looked at Chu Qingxiao with a very serious look on his face. asked excitedly.
Chu Qingxiao smiled bitterly and pushed away the wine glass placed in front of him, picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip: "Senior is a disciple of Tianxuan Mountain after all. If you get involved in this kind of thing, it may bring trouble to senior, so it's okay I didn’t inform my seniors.”
"What's more, with Lu Sandao and Lu Zhen guarding him, there won't be any trouble..."
Early this morning, Chu Qingxiao was only halfway through breakfast when Sun Li hurriedly came to the door and took Chu Qingxiao to drink.
Chu Qingxiao thought the other party had encountered some trouble, so he hurriedly said goodbye to everyone and followed him. But as soon as he entered the wine shop, before Chu Qingxiao could ask Sun Li, Sun Li said what he had just said excitedly.
In the process of getting along with Sun Li, Chu Qingxiao also roughly figured out the old man's jealous temper.
When these words came out of his mouth, Chu Qingxiao felt that they were reasonable.
"At my age, I don't have to worry about any trouble." Sun Li said. After saying this, the old man added: "That Guard Lu is quite a figure. He is estimated to be only in his early thirties, but his cultivation level is... It is unfathomable, and among the younger generation in Tianxuan Mountain, few people can compare with it."
"It's a pity that she used a knife..."
Tianxuan Mountain is famous for its swordsmanship. The techniques learned and the moves taught are all swordsmanship. It is indeed strange that Lu Sandao can become the guardian of the sacred peak of Tianxuan Mountain using a sword.
"How much do seniors know about Guard Lu?" Chu Qingxiao couldn't bear the doubts in his heart and asked at this time.
Sun Li took a sip of wine and said: "When Lu Zhenshou came to Tianxuan Mountain, it was seven or eight years ago. At that time, I had already retreated from the Shenhe Peak. I knew everything about the mountain gate. Not much, mostly I only heard a few mentions from old friends."
"Zhenshou Lu seems to have some relationship with the Lu family of Qingque Peak. They are considered to be the same clan. In the early years, her parents took their lineage and left Qingque Peak. It seems that they went to Xizhou."
"Twelve years ago, the imperial court was in chaos, rebellions broke out all over the place, and there were signs of rebellion in Jianyue City. There was turmoil in Xizhou. Lu Zhenshou's lineage was probably implicated and was almost exterminated. After wandering around for several years, Lu Zhenshou chose After returning to Tianxuan Mountain, after being introduced by the Lu family, I was promoted to guard by the previous peak master of Qingque Peak."
"She has just arrived and holds an important position, so she will naturally attract hatred. In addition, she is quite casual in doing things, so there are many people in Tianxuan Mountain who want to deal with her."
"Over the years in Tianxuan Mountain, among the younger generation, the most praised ones are Zhao Nianshuang on Qingque Peak and Zheng Lingyin on Liuhuan Peak."
"However, Peak Master Zhao's talent is really amazing. Even though she is only twenty-eight years old a few years ago, her strength has already surpassed that of most people of the older generation. Therefore, most of the time, it is difficult for people to count her as young. Among the generation, Zheng Lingyin of Liuhuan Peak is recognized as the leader of the younger generation for most of the time. In addition, Zheng Jingtong, the peak leader of Liuhuan Peak, is very good at management. In recent years, Liuhuan Peak has become one of the nine peaks of Tianxuan Mountain. , there is a faint trend of getting bigger.”
"Some disciples of Liuhuan Peak are also very domineering in their actions. Among them, Zheng Chuanwen, the third son of the peak master, is the most domineering. In his early years, he even molested a newly initiated inner sect disciple at Qingque Peak. This would be considered normal. , The peak master with a better temper just turned a blind eye and got over it, while the peak master with a bad temper just scolded him a few times and didn't dare to offend the young master of Liuhuan Peak."
"But that guard Lu was not an ordinary person. He cut off Zheng Chuanwen's right arm on the spot. If the old peak master hadn't arrived at that time, Zheng Chuanwen might have lost his life on Qingque Peak."
"The old man likes Lu Zhenshou's temperament. He is happy with grudges. When he meets a villain like Zheng Chuanwen, he has to teach him this way!"
Sun Li looked quite excited as he said this, and his tone did not hide his appreciation for Lu Sandao.
This was the first time Chu Qingxiao had heard of such a thing, and it was difficult for him to associate the Jiu Mengzi in his family with the jealous female swordsman that the old man said.
"In the past, I liked people like Lu Zhenshou, but now there is an old man in Tianxuan Mountain who can impress me." While Chu Qingxiao was still thinking about this, Sun Li's voice sounded again.
Chu Qingxiao was a little confused. He looked at the old man and asked, "Who is the other person?"
Sun Li glanced at Chu Qingxiao with a smile in his eyes: "Isn't that you, little friend?"
"Me?" Chu Qingxiao was a little confused, and then said with a bitter smile: "Senior, you are ridiculous. My cultivation is much worse than Lu Zhenshou."
"Cultivation?" Sun Li didn't care.
"No matter how high your cultivation level is, people who only have selfish desires and want to satisfy themselves will be a disaster."
"On the contrary, someone like this little friend, who is upright, wise, and willing to extend his hand to others, is what monks in the world should be like!"
Chu Qingxiao rarely received such high praise. He was a little embarrassed for a while and didn't know how to respond to the old man's praise.
At this time, Sun Li took another sip of wine and said, "In addition to saying these things to my little friend today, I also came to say goodbye to my little friend."
Chu Qingxiao was stunned: "Where are you going, senior?"
At this moment, the old man touched the prairie fire sword placed beside him.
"In this life, I have traveled to many places with my old friend."
"We have seen the sunset over the long river in Ningzhou together, experienced the yellow sand of the desert in Longjiang City, and also took a boat trip across the lake outside Shangyu City."
"The world of Dayu is so vast, with so many beautiful sights. In a lifetime of sixty or seventy years, I can never finish it and see it all." "I originally thought that when I get older, the sword should be returned to Jianling, and I should also be there. Let’s take good care of ourselves in Tianxuan City.”
"But my little friend woke me up that day..."
"You said that people and things that care about each other should be together."
"Although everyone will wait for that day, before that day comes, we should live hard with each other, do meaningful things, and cherish every day."
"That way we won't have any regrets when that day comes."
"So, I thought, since I can still walk with my old bones and my old man is still with me. Then I should go for a walk. It's not too far. I'll go to Quzhou nearby to see Look at the Jiuqu River in Quzhou, and if you still have the strength, then go further south and see the Immortal Forest outside Southern Xinjiang. There are many vassal states established by foreigners from Southern Xinjiang there, and I heard there are many strange things."
"When we were young, my old woman and I made an agreement that one day we would retire from the Divine Peak and we would go there together to see it."
"It's a pity that she was unlucky and passed away early, so I'll try to go see it for her."
As Sun Li spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked the blade of the Liaoyuan Sword. The Liaoyuan Sword seemed to be sensing something, as the sword trembled slightly and emitted clear sword sounds.
Seeing this, the old man grinned: "You see, the old man has been bored and panicked over the years. After I talked to him yesterday, he is very excited."
When Chu Qingxiao heard this, he also reacted from the brief surprise.
Then he looked at Sun Li and saw a genuine smile on his lips.
Although Chu Qingxiao was a little worried about Sun Li's physical condition, after seeing this scene, he still put away the worry in his heart.
After thinking for a moment, he raised the wine glass that he had just pushed away and looked at Sun Li.
"Since the senior has made up his mind, the junior will not say anything more."
"I'll take this glass of wine to wish you a successful trip, senior."
"See the Jiuqu River, see the Evergreen Forest, and enjoy the scenery of southern Xinjiang."
Chu Qingxiao said seriously.
Sun Li was stunned and looked at the wine glass in Chu Qingxiao's hand with some confusion: "Didn't you say that the elders in the family don't let you drink?"
Chu Qingxiao blinked his eyes and said, "You want me to drink less."
"But life is short. If you meet a person of such character as your predecessor, of course..."
“When drinking is done, drink.”
Sun Li also grinned when he heard this.
He also raised his glass and said, "Well said!"
"Life is only a few decades long, if you meet the right person."
“When drinking is done, drink.”
"If you encounter a jackal..."
The old man was halfway through what he said, but the ink in his chest was limited, and he didn't know how to continue the next sentence. He was full of pride, stuck in his chest, and felt very uncomfortable.
When Chu Qingxiao saw this, he spoke again at that time.
"If you meet a jackal."
“When the sword is drawn, the sword is drawn.”
The old man suddenly smiled brightly and said loudly: "Well said, when you draw the sword, draw the sword!"
After saying that, he handed the wine glass forward in his hand, touched it with Chu Qingxiao's cup, and immediately raised his head to drink the wine in one gulp.
Chu Qingxiao also imitated his example and drank the wine from the glass.
Then……
Waves of violent coughs from the young man could be heard in the wine shop, as well as the old man's boisterous laughter with good intentions.
