In the end, Bai Jin let Lu Bei go, and they competed in swordplay and painting, practiced Taoism together, and studied sword scriptures together, without mentioning She Xuan from beginning to end.
He was not in a hurry and was a bit slow. It took three days before he let Lu Bei leave.
Before leaving, he gave Lu Bei an unfathomable look and said some strange things to himself.
"Once upon a time, there was a scholar who had a childhood sweetheart who was the envy of others. One of them said that her hair was waist-length, and the other said that she would not marry anyone but you. The scholar went to Beijing to take the imperial examination and never returned. He married the daughter of an official family. Later..."
Bai Jin smiled and looked at Lu Bei: "The scholar is dead."
"Brother, do you know how the scholar died?"
"Killed by the dog emperor!"
"No, Qingmei and Madam pushed him into the river and he drowned."
"… "
Lu Bei: ∑(O_O;)
He understands the truth, but the problem is, no matter from which angle, She Xuan, who poisons him on a daily basis, is more in line with the character of a childhood sweetheart.
No matter how you look at it, a daughter of an official family should have the surname Zhu.
There was a matchmaker named Bai, who snatched the pretty boy away halfway through the matchmaking process.
Of course, the scumbag only dared to think such words in his mind and could never say them out loud. He left the studio with a dignified look on his face, swearing to go back to the mountain gate to deal with business.
It didn’t work.
Because the oath of being struck by five thunders from heaven was too terrifying, and there was a law of nature above one's head, and one would be struck by thunder if one spoke carelessly, the kind-hearted Bai Jin angrily stopped him and waved his hand to drive the man away.
She only gave Lu Bei three days to deal with the business. If he wasn't seen after three days, he was not allowed to come back.
Lu Bei left with a guilty conscience, and pretended to hang around the gate of Tianjian Sect for a while, leaving a few witnesses, and rushed to Sanqing Peak as quickly as possible.
In the backyard, Lu Bei opened the Yin-Yang portal, and a thin golden-scaled snake stood above She Xuan's head, coiling its body to form a question mark.
"What took so long?"
"Busy. I've been in seclusion recently. I'm right next to you." Lu Bei recited the lines skillfully. Bai Jin's secret had already been exposed, and She Xuan couldn't afford to collapse again.
It’s not a big problem. Elder She is stupid and easy to fool.
She Xuan raised her eyebrows, feeling quite resentful, and said directly: "Besides me, was there anyone else who survived the calamity in the Red Sky Desert that day?"
For example, your senior sister Bai Jin!
"Elder She is wise!"
Lu Bei raised his hand to give a thumbs-up, saying that the evil cultivator enemy had set up a trap, then the Xuanlong demon clan crossed the border, then the Xiongchu Buddhist disciple was possessed by the devil, and in the end, it became him who survived the tribulation that day.
The golden-scaled snake's eyes were spinning in circles, and it was confused. She Xuan was almost the same. She raised her hand to call for a stop, grabbed the pretty boy's collar, and pulled him in for a deep kiss.
That’s right, it’s the smell of Senior Sister Bai.
She Xuan was unhappy and turned away and walked into her room.
She had known for a long time that Lu Bei had a senior sister outside, but because she liked her so much, she pretended not to know. It was the same reason why she stayed in Sanqing Peak and didn't want to move to Tianjian Sect.
As long as she didn't see it, she could continue to be ignorant.
I can't do it today. When I think about the three days in the small dark room and my man hugging my senior sister outside and saying sweet words to her, I want to let the snake go out to bite people.
Lu Bei failed to knock on the door, so he climbed in through the window. He saw a golden-scaled snake rushing towards him, its fangs flashing, as if it wanted to avenge its good sister. He swallowed it into his stomach in one breath.
"Gulp!"
Lu Bei wiped his mouth and sat down next to She Xuan. Seeing her eyes were red, he held her hand and said, "Sister She, come with me to Zang Qianshan. I will never let you suffer any grievances in the future."
She Xuan's breathing stagnated, and she felt inexplicably guilty. She hesitated and mentioned the day of the tribulation again.
"What a coincidence! Senior Sister Bai and you both underwent the tribulation on the same day, so... you already know everything." Lu Bei told part of the truth.
"Three days ago..."
"Senior Sister Bai also guessed that you were going through the tribulation, so she deliberately delayed for a while and refused to come out of seclusion. You... were thinking the same thing, so we bumped into each other again."
"… "
Lu Bei secretly thought that it was fate, the two of you have exactly the same thoughts, you deserve to be sisters for life.
She Xuan was about to speak but stopped, and said aggrievedly: "At the beginning, she promised not to fight, and she also tried her best to match you and me. She said sister when she opened her mouth and sister when she closed her mouth. How can she go back on her word!"
The sword's power was too strong and she couldn't grasp it.
Lu Bei gave the correct answer, scratched his nose, and interrupted: "Blame me, I'm too good."
She Xuan was furious, she pointed at the door and told Lu Bei to get out of here immediately, go to Yuezhou and live with his senior sister, and never come to see her again in this life.
Lu Bei looked embarrassed: "What a coincidence, Senior Sister Bai also said the same thing. If you can't see me in three days, don't go to her in the future."
"!"
She Xuan immediately perked up, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and said coldly, "Did she really say that?"
"Um."
"Humph, what's wrong with fulfilling her wish?"
She Xuan raised her hand and pushed Lu Bei down. Seeing his shy face, she was so angry that she couldn't stop sneering: "Just stand still. This elder will go to the back kitchen to poison you. You'd better stay here honestly, otherwise I will leave Wu Zhou and go to a place you will never find in your life."
Lu Bei nodded obediently, and when She Xuan walked away swaying her slender waist, he opened his mouth and spat out a thin golden-scaled snake.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”
"Why are you glaring at me? What are you angry about? If you want to pick on me, talk about it on the day you transform!"
—
The Far West.
The Moon-covering and Joyous Sect.
In the pavilion on the lake, a beautiful lady walks barefoot in the clear water, accompanied by the sound of the zither, dancing with the flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water.
Red walls and high gardens, wind blowing through the red nets, a vague yin-yang formation diagram connecting the sky and the earth.
The pretty boy with a slightly dark complexion walked into the Red Tower with the gait of a dragon and a tiger. Wherever he passed, the senior and junior sisters were all full of affection. They looked at each other in surprise, their hearts were in turmoil, and they closed the doors and windows with blushing faces.
It was half-closed, leaving a large gap, enough for one person to pass through.
The pretty boy smiled, his appearance as a beast in human clothing was exceptionally gentle, he waved his folding fan and looked around, thinking that the sisters and fellow apprentices were of no use, the uncles and aunts were not worth mentioning, and the clan leader who was proficient in riding was a formidable opponent, and it would be difficult to defeat him within a hundred rounds.
Severe punishment!
He stood up.
Unlike Lu Nan and Lu Dong, Junior Brother Xing hasn't been troubled for a long time since he was disliked by Lu Bei and was labeled as a waste.
Guarding the precious land of Yanyue Hehuan Sect, where furnaces and tripods are everywhere, his practice progresses by leaps and bounds, and he has now become a monk who has transcended tribulation.
After two years of training, he fell back to a higher realm several times, but fought again and again to return to the top. The reputation of Xing Li as a genius spread quickly, and he was trained by the sect.
He did not disappoint everyone's expectations, and fought his way out from the crowd of senior sisters and junior fellow apprentices. With his excellent stick skills, he beat his uncles and aunts so hard that they were unable to resist. His master even fought and retreated. Now he has entered the sect master's house and appears in the sect master's boudoir on a daily basis.
At this rate, in a few years, he would become the leader of the Yanyue Hehuan Sect.
Just when Xing Li was choosing and thinking about having fun with Senior Sister Dongfang, he received an urgent message from Sect Master Gongsun.
His face calmed down, he closed his folding fan and inserted it into the back of his clothes, and in a few flashes he arrived at the sect master's cave.
Unlike others, the clan leader has a profound background and mysterious strength. He must go all out to protect himself, so he has adjusted his spirit to the peak state before entering the arena.
"Xing Li pays respect to the Sect Master."
"Come in!"
Hearing the cold voice, Xing Li pushed the door open and walked in with a serious face. Seeing his master, the most beautiful lady in the world, he thought to himself that it was another day for the master to disrespect his master.
I don’t know when this hard time will end.
Like all sons of destiny, Xing Li also has his own opportunities. As an extraterritorial demon, he is a natural embryo of a demon cultivator. Every time he enters the Hehuan Sect's arsenal, he can cultivate a magical secret skill.
During his three trips, he also picked up magical weapons and ancient heritage.
Gradually, he began to look down on the inheritance of the Yanyue Hehuan Sect. In a word, it was really tiring.
If it weren't for the rapid increase in magic power due to the blessing of dual cultivation, it would be really difficult to give up. Whoever loves her, he would have stopped serving her long ago.
The room is full of fragrance, with the faint and elegant smell of orchids, just like Sect Master Gongsun, with a graceful demeanor and fragrant manners, and all kinds of charm in one.
Xing Li was admiring the beauty, but out of the corner of his eye he noticed there was another person in the room.
As a demon from outside the domain, he could achieve twice the result with half the effort in practicing magic, and his magical powers were far stronger than those of the cultivators of the same level. The spiritual power of his Tribulation Period was comparable to that of the Mahayana Period. This was the first time he had seen someone who could hide his spiritual power from him.
With great shock, he looked at it carefully.
When he saw this, his heart beat faster and he thought to himself what a beautiful girl she was.
No, what a beautiful child.
The woman's purple dress was as pretty as a flower, she looked like a fairy, her plain face was elegant, noble and extraordinary, her indescribable beauty and grace made one dare not look at her closely, as if looking at her any longer would be a blasphemy.
Xing Li muttered secretly that with his experience of admiring beauties of all kinds, a woman's beauty reaches a level where spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each have their own fragrance, and it is impossible and will not be possible to tell which is better; it is hard to say who is more beautiful than the other.
But this woman at the moment was clearly an exception. It was hard to explain, but she was more beautiful than the sect leader.
How strange! What kind of magical power is this? Is it a charm
"Master, he is Xing Li." Sect Master Gongsun said respectfully.
The woman nodded, and looked at Xing Li with her beautiful eyes. She said slowly with a gentle breath, "Turn around for me to see."
It smells like the Hehuan Sect, so it must be one of our own.
Xing Li didn't dare to say much. It was a blessing in disguise, and he turned around obediently waiting for his fate.
"Yes, I will take this person away."
The woman nodded contentedly, waved her hand and blew away the fragrant wind, which made Xing Li dizzy and fall down. In the blink of an eye, he was snoring like thunder.
“Master, Xing Li is extremely talented. In less than two years, he will leave the elders behind. Please show mercy and spare his life.” Sect Master Gongsun said reluctantly.
"Why, are you moved?"
"… "
Gongsun was speechless, and said with a stiff face: "I don't know what evil method this kid used. After his realm broke through the fusion stage, most of the female disciples who practiced dual cultivation with him were quite fond of him."
"It's just a charm. You guys accidentally coveted her beauty, so you showed mercy to him several times, which is why he has achieved his current level of cultivation."
"Master, I am not bewitched..."
"No need to say more, the master has his own arrangements and will not take his life."
The woman looked at Xing Li, who was sleeping soundly on the ground and pretending to be unconscious. "He is a smart man. Let's see how his luck will turn out during this trip to the secret realm. If he can escape, it will be a blessing."
