No matter how low his voice was, Chu Junyu could hear it. He remained calm and said, "I don't have a son as stupid as you."
Pei Jing laughed and scolded: "Go away."
He was supported by Chu Junyu and led out of the Fourteen Prefectures of Yunzhong.
The moment he walked down the stairs, the palace behind him turned to ashes, and the huge wave shook the land. Pei Jing looked back and saw the towering head hall, in the blood and moonlight, collapsed into powder in an instant. Ashes fell from the sky, misty and pale, like snow.
Pei Jing was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and looked back repeatedly: "It's quite interesting."
He pulled Chu Junyu's sleeve and said, "Quick, quick, look back."
Chu Junyu stopped and looked in the direction he pointed, and what he saw was white dust all over the sky.
Just like before.
The long sword kills the world.
Wusheng waited for him outside the mountain gate for a long time. When he saw him and Chu Junyu coming out together, he asked in confusion, "Why did you two come out together?" Pei Jing didn't want to recall the past at all: "Let's go down the mountain first."
After returning to Zhuangyuan Village, Pei Jing first adjusted himself for a night and healed the injuries to his sea of consciousness and dantian. After a few small cycles, he exhaled heavily and opened his eyes. Looking at the Lingyun Sword beside him, Pei Jing's eyes showed a trace of confusion. He had many doubts since he came down from Wuwang Peak, but the other person would not answer him, so he could only guess by himself.
Chu Junyu could pass through a secret passage that he could not even use his spiritual sense to penetrate. Chu Junyu seemed to know everything about his own very private matters.
Pei Jing stroked the Lingyun Sword and murmured, "... Who are you? What is your purpose in coming to Yunxiao?"
Leaving a person of unknown identity in Yunxiao would inevitably pose a threat to other disciples. If it weren't for the past year of getting along with Chu Junyu, he would have a certain understanding of him. As the temporary head, he would have asked for the truth now.
Even though he came here to seek revenge, I haven't seen him care about outsiders.
It was even more impossible to say that he came here to practice and study. Counting Chu Junyu's performance in the past year, he was alone most of the time and kept people at a distance. The only person he had much contact with was himself. Although he deliberately approached him, Chu Junyu seemed to be very special to him from the beginning.
Pei Jing's expression became a little strange.
For Zhuangyuan Village, the blessing night held every three years is a big event. There are many things to prepare, chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, fruits, wedding candies, firecrackers that rang in several households, and big red lanterns were hung high. Seeing this, Pei Jing thought it was the Chinese New Year. Before the blessing night, the teahouse at the entrance of Zhuangyuan Village was always full of people, asking about the situation of the children of school age in each family. Pei Jing took Aju to sit down and sat around a table with several other people. Aju was very well-behaved and didn't say anything, eating the candied fruit that Pei Jing handed to her.
Yu Qinglian stared at the little girl for a long time, frowned, and said, "Her eyes must have been very beautiful before."
Pei Jing didn't mind A'ru's presence and said, "Her eyes were damaged by the evil spirit invading her body. I'm trying to find a way to help her get rid of the evil spirit."
Yu Qinglian nodded, and without further ado, she talked about other things: "It's the village's blessing night, we have to find a way to sneak in."
Pei Jing: "Why bother thinking of a solution? You are wearing a mask, so who knows who you are. I think our most urgent task is to figure out what to do after we catch the demon on the night of prayer."
Yu Qinglian: "Kill him."
Pei Jing said: "Let's not talk about whether the monster is difficult to deal with or not. Just these crazy villagers are enough for you to deal with."
Yu Qinglian tilted her head to glance into the distance, and saw people talking happily with rosy faces.
She reacted and said, "Lure the monsters out, or knock them all out first."
Pei Jing: "Okay, you go and do it."
As they chatted, the lady who had taken Pei Jing to the Zhuangyuan Temple last time suddenly came over with a smile on her face: "Hey, why are you all sitting here?" She was holding a basket in her hand, which was covered with a layer of red cloth. She was probably in a good mood because of the happy event, and she was very enthusiastic about the outsiders. She took out a few red-dyed eggs from the basket and held one for each person. "Don't think of yourselves as outsiders. I steamed them this morning. They are very fresh."
Pei Jing took it and smiled: "Auntie, you are in a good mood." The old lady smiled and said: "Not bad, my grandson will also participate in the blessing tomorrow. I just read a few fortunes over there, and they are all good news."
Pei Jing: "It's all good news, then. Judging from your appearance, your grandson will be blessed."
But only if you are lucky will you not be chosen to be a short-lived person.
Seeing that there were only five of them and there was still an empty seat, the old lady sat down next to Aju and said with a smile: "Aju is willing to go out with outsiders. It seems that this child likes you very much." She also liked these young boys more and more. They were good-looking and had good personalities, so she couldn't help but say a few more words: "It's not that outsiders can't participate in the blessing. If you want to watch, you can sneak in."
Among the five people, Chu Junyu was as usual, Aju ate properly, Wusheng didn't speak easily, and Ji Wuyou was still in extreme panic. So only Pei Jing and Yu Qinglian were left to greet the old lady.
Pei Jing suddenly became interested when he heard the old lady boasting about how smart her son was. He pointed at himself and said, "Auntie, what do you think of me?"
The old lady was interrupted and confused: "What's going on?"
Pei Jing smiled with his white teeth: "As for me, do you think I have the blessing of being chosen by Wenquxing?"
Yu Qinglian twitched the corners of her mouth. The old lady was amused by him, and after laughing for a long time, she shook her head: "Although I dare not say that I can guess the will of God, but after so many years of watching, I should know some patterns. Young master, you look smart, but you will not be chosen."
Yu Qinglian gloated: "I advise you to have some self-awareness."
Pei Jing ignored her and said with a smile: "Auntie, please don't cheat me. I have been said to be talented and talented since I was a child. Why can't I do that?"
The old lady continued to shake her head: "No means no."
Pei Jing said: "How about this, tell me what kind of person Wenquxing would choose, so that I can see it." Pei Jing pointed around and said: "Among all of us here, is there anyone who might be chosen by Wenquxing?"
Yu Qinglian said: "Why do you want to humiliate yourself?"
Wusheng smiled and said, "I don't have to take that into account."
But the old lady still looked at everyone carefully, and finally landed on Ji Wuyou, who had kept his head down. She pointed with her finger and smiled happily: "Among you, I think this guy is the most likely one."
Ji Wuyou, who was called, suddenly raised his head.
The fat boy's wide eyes were filled with astonishment.
The three people's eyes fell on his silly and dull face.
Ji Wuyou, who was totally out of his mind, scratched his head a little uneasily because of everyone's gaze: "... Me, me?"
The lady smiled and said, "Oh, how cute, isn't that you?"
Pei Jing was stunned for a while, then he smiled and said, "Really? That's a bit unexpected."
Yu Qinglian was also slightly stunned, which was unexpected.
The old lady said, "You have all seen Wenquxing in the Zhuangyuan Temple. You all look like children of wealthy families and have never suffered hardship, but this fat boy is different. He has too many worries, and from the looks of it, he is an honest man with wisdom."
Three people: “… ... ” In terms of intelligence, they, the five greatest people in the world, actually lost to such an honest man.
Ji Wuyou waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, please don't praise me."
The old lady smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth, why are you so lovable?"
It's a pity...
After everyone else went ahead, Pei Jing and Yu Qinglian walked in the back to discuss the plan together. After all, following Qi Sha Ge here was their original intention.
Yu Qinglian asked, "What news did you get at Wuwang Peak?" Pei Jing said, "I didn't know anything, but Chu Junyu told me a lot."
He lowered his head, looked at the land under his feet, and said, "In fact, there was a village on this land. It didn't have a Zhuangyuan Temple or the blessing of Wenquxing, but it was also a place of outstanding people and many officials. Then, about five hundred years ago, an earthquake and a landslide buried the entire village."
