After sending away the dejected Wang Sanhua that day, Jiang Yu concentrated on practicing at Yingxian Temple.
This Yingxian Temple is indeed a good place. Although it is not as good as other worldly places such as Haitang Xiangguo and Xianyun Mountain, it is rich in spiritual energy and is very pure on Hongxi Mountain.
Perhaps due to the orders of his junior uncle Xiao Sanyan, no one has bothered Jiang Yu recently.
Except for Wang Sanhua, who had seen her show her hands.
This kid always used the pretext of delivering food to talk to Jiang Yu. If he hadn't seen that all he asked were questions about cultivation, Jiang Yu might have beaten him out long ago.
Yin Ban'er under the Dantian patted the advancing Rakshasa bird next door like a cocoon, and saw Jiang Yu frowning in sorrow, and then fell down in Youxianlu with a smile.
[Girl, you are like today. Why, people come to ask you for advice, and you still want to kick them out? 】
Jiang Yu was very helpless: [I would like to drive him out, but I am stepping on the boundary of Renyingxian Temple. If I really do this, wouldn't it be too ungrateful? 】
[Wang Sanhua, this little brother is full of energy and is probably quite strong. If I want to ask you for advice, I might as well fight you once. 】
Jiang Yu sighed, interrupted his practice and stretched.
The whole room was warmed by the earth dragon. She stood up and pushed open the window. The snow under the steps had already been swept away. Jiang Yu looked up and came over with a smiling face.
"Jian Shi, it's good for you."
here we go again……
Just when Jiang Yu was about to close the window, Wang Sanhua suddenly reached out to stop her, and was pinched hard!
"Jian Shijiang, wait!...ah!"
Jiang Yu heard his exclamation, paused and pushed the window open.
"Jian Shi, I, I'm not here to ask questions." Wang Sanhua grimaced in pain, veins on her forehead jumped, but she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only hold her hand tightly, "I came to tell Jian Shi, little master Uncle is out of quarantine, we can set off for Lin'an City."
oh? Finally leaving?
Jiang Yu supported his chin with his hands by the window and said with a smile, "That's great. Are you leaving today?"
"Exactly."
Wang Sanhua blew on her red and swollen palms and smiled awkwardly: "My junior uncle immediately gave the order as soon as he came out of seclusion. There were not many people going to the Xiao family this time. There was only my junior uncle, and he brought his two nephews. There’s me, and then there’s you, Master Jiang.”
"Little Master Uncle, the other end is ready. If Master Jiang is ready, we can set off."
Jiang Yu nodded.
"Okay, just wait for me to get the knife and I'll be here."
Dengxian placed it on the bed, Jiang Yu turned around to get it, and Yin Baner suddenly said: "Little girl, the Xiao family has made such a big fuss, and only a few people have been invited to Yingxian Temple. It's not normal." 】
[Abnormal is normal. 】
Jiang Yu held Dengxian on his back and said: "Such a big family will not place their hopes on a worldly sect. There will definitely be backup plans." 】
[I don’t expect these people from Yingxian Temple to be of any use, as long as they allow me to enter the Xiao family. I can do other things myself. 】
Yin Ban'er snorted: "Yes, you are so cunning and slippery when fighting alone, otherwise I would not be included in this Youxian Lu." 】
Jiang Yu pushed the door open, and Wang Sanhua was anxiously looking in, but was caught.
"Let's go."
Light snow began to fall again on Hongxi Mountain. When he came out of the wing and arrived at the gate of Yingxian Temple, he heard a few cranes in the distance. Jiang Yu put on his bamboo hat again and looked up to see Xiao Sanyan standing at the door.
The young man wore his hair neatly in a bun and wore a dark gray pine and crane winter robe. He was very low-key. He was accompanied by two boys who were almost as tall as his shoulders. One was carrying a bag and the other was holding a fly whisk. Both were dressed in green. , followed him quietly.
"Daoist Xiao."
Xiao Sanyan turned around and smiled, his green eyes like deep pools of water.
The two said hello and the group set out on the road.
Hongxi Mountain was not very high, so a few people mounted their horses and reached the foot of the mountain in just two sticks of incense. It only took them two hours to reach Lin'an.
Before it was too late, I saw the shadow of Lin'an City.
Xiao Sanyan didn't know what he saw, so he raised his hand and the group slowed down.
Jiang Yu reined up her horse and exhaled a large puff of white smoke. The cold wind carried moisture and blew the fluff on her cloak. She blinked, and there was some fine frost on her eyelashes.
It turned out that there were many people standing at the city gate, and several carriages decorated with unicorns and auspicious beasts were parked there.
Lin'an five families, Xiao family.
"Mr. Lang! You have finally come down the mountain!"
The middle-aged man at the head was delighted when he saw the horses slowing down. He hurried forward regardless of the snow under his feet.
Xiao Sanyan got off his horse and saluted the visitor: "Mr. Lin, there is no need to be like this. If something unexpected happens in the family, Qianhe should share the family's worries."
The man looked him up and down with excitement, said "good", and patted his shoulder hard several times.
"Your cultivation has improved again. With Qianhe here, the Xiao family can thrive for another hundred years!" He moved his eyes behind Xiao Sanyan and saw Wang Sanhua, Jiang Yu and others.
"Is this... from the Wang family?"
Xiao Sanyan gave a brief introduction: "This is my nephew, the eleventh son of the Wang family, nicknamed Linyuan, nicknamed Sanhua. These two are the boys under me, Xunfeng and Zhenmu. As for this one..."
Jiang Yu looked at the hand he pointed at him with a smile, paused, and took the initiative to salute: "I have met Mr. Lin, the junior Jiang Yu comes from the Dengxian Pavilion in Yunshan Mountain in Sichuan, and this time he shamelessly followed Taoist Xiao to the Xiao family. , it’s really disturbing.”
Mr. Lin looked at Xiao Sanyan in confusion, but he calmly changed the subject.
"We are going down the mountain early in the morning. It's freezing and snowy. It's better to let the guests and my nephew's disciples get on the carriage and rest first."
Mr. Lin slapped his forehead and hurriedly called to the servants who were following him. He quickly stepped forward and took Xiao Sanyan's horse, smiling and inviting a few people to get on the carriage.
"It's my fault. It's all my fault. You guys are freezing at the gate of the city. Come on, get in the car. Let's go back and talk slowly."
As soon as the curtain was lifted, Jiang Yu was stunned.
There was a lot of space in the car. This was the first time she had seen a carriage that could put soft couches and books in it. There was a maid in the car serving warm silver charcoal. Spices were sprinkled on the charcoal, and the warm fragrance of lychees spread out. Open up to insulate yourself from the cold outside.
A maid came forward and knelt down at her feet, and said respectfully: "My lady and the gentlemen, please take off their cloaks and sundries. I'll warm the ginger wine in the car to warm you all up."
Wang Sanhua followed his example and took off his cloak and handed it over to him. Jiang Yu watched him work and imitated him and took off his cloak.
She took off her bamboo hat, smelled the warm fragrance, and felt that the coldness in her body had dissipated, and she felt much more relaxed.
Wang Sanhua saw that Jiang Yu had never seen such a battle before, and even the movements of sitting down on the couch were a bit stiff. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "Jiang Jian, why don't you drink some wine to warm yourself up?"
Jiang Yu nodded and picked up the wine cup on the low table in front of him.
The wine is orange in color and sprinkled with fine osmanthus flowers. There is no shredded ginger in it, but you can smell the slightly spicy ginger flavor if you smell it lightly.
After taking a sip, I only felt a long-lasting warmth in my throat, and then I felt warmth rising up in my limbs.
Good wine.
Jiang Yu relaxed a lot, held his head and poured himself another glass, thinking randomly.
The preparations for the guests are already so grand. It must be indispensable to prepare for the Xiao family to welcome their own family.
Mr. Lin opened the curtain for Xiao Sanyan, and the two of them got into the car, but there was no warmth.
The same low desk was limp, but there were a few pieces of letter paper piled on the table.
Seeing that there was no dissatisfaction on Xiao Sanyan's face, Mr. Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
The young head of the Xiao family has been practicing meditation in the temple all year round. He doesn't like luxury. If he prepares it like a guest, he may be flattering.
Xiao Sanyan sat on the soft couch, reached out and picked up the letter and read it, frowning.
After a while, he asked.
"Grandpa's condition has worsened again?"
When Mr. Lin heard what he asked the head of the family, his face became heavy.
"The head of the house... he can no longer go out. He shuts out the sunlight during the day, ordered people to seal all the windows, and does not allow outsiders to approach. He can only come out at night."
"It would be fine if we just avoided light, but the owner of the house is now suffering from hysteria." Mr. Lin sighed, "For two days in a row, he said he saw a ghost lingering in the house, saying it was an evil spirit. Ordinarily. If you are suffering from hysteria, Dr. Sun, who was invited to take some medicine, will get better, but Dr. Sun said that the head of the family is not hysterical..."
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "Evil spirits? Yin spirits?"
"Yes, when Dr. Sun said it was not hysteria at first, we speculated that it was evil spirits. However, the people sent by the clan disappeared inexplicably, including a cultivator from Sichuan who was revealed..."
He paused and remembered what Jiang Yu said.
Yes, this may be the person she is looking for.
Xiao Sanyan was deep in thought, but Mr. Lin's words continued: "Mr. Lang, the Xiao family can't live without the head of the family for a long time. I'm asking you to come down this time. One is for the head of the family, and the other is to stabilize the situation of the Xiao family. The second and third bedrooms are Bian has been doing a lot recently, especially the second bedroom, they have been very close to the lady from the Bai family recently."
Bai family, Bai Xiu.
The Lin'an twins were the confirmed star masters of the Xingyan Sect.
"They... they said that Lang Jun may not be able to cure the head of the family, so they took the initiative and invited the lady from the Bai family to come over. I heard that there were several other groups of people on the way. Lang Jun..."
Xiao Sanyan rubbed his eyebrows and waved his hand. Seeing this, Mr. Lin had no choice but to sit down and say nothing.
After entering the city, the wind and snow were getting worse outside, making the curtains crackle.
The gloomy sky seemed to portend something, which weighed heavily on his heart and made him breathless.
He intuitively felt that the Xiao family's disaster this time was not simple.
But no matter what kind of thing, you have to see it before you know it.
