Chapter 395 Say! Did you steal it?
As the saying goes, the first time is born and the second time is familiar. Xu Fengnian was still screaming with his hands and feet when he went up the mountain, but he had already begun to adapt to this novel experience of riding the wind when he went down the mountain.
In order not to scare everyone, Zhou Ji did not take Xu Fengnian directly into the courtyard, but landed in a pavilion behind the Taoist temple and put him down.
Xu Fengnian staggered a few steps and stood firm, his face was pale, but he looked up at the sky with some unsatisfied feelings, and said enviously: "I don't know when I will be able to fly in the sky like you, traveling toward the North Sea."
Zhou Ji turned around and glanced at the dimly lit Taoist temple, and said with a smile: "I know a savage named Yun Tianhe, who is blessed and talented. He can fly with a sword in less than a cup of tea after learning Qionghua's mental method. Now, as for you, refining Wang Chonglou's Dahuangting True Qi, you can just practice for another three to five years."
The corner of Xu Fengnian's mouth twitched, and he was hit immediately. He quickly followed Zhou Ji without stopping. His figure turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the Taoist temple. At a glance, he didn't find Zhou Ji's figure, and thought he was left behind, but as soon as he entered the yard, he heard the voice of the blue bird.
"Your Majesty." Seeing Xu Fengnian's return, Qingniao relaxed her tense nerves.
Xu Fengnian nodded lightly and asked her why she hadn't rested yet. When she entered the room, she found that not only her, but even the little girl Jiang Ni was waiting for him to come back.
Wei Shuyang was fine, he could fall asleep while riding a horse during the day, so he wasn’t too sleepy, but Jiang Ni sat by the campfire and dozed off for a while. Was scorched.
Xu Fengnian waved his hand at Wei Shuyang, indicating that he was fine, squatted beside Jiang Ni and held his chin to see her dozing figure, laughed dumbfounded, and whispered: "Hair is burning."
Hearing the voice, Jiang Ni lost her balance and woke up suddenly. Seeing that the tip of her hair was about to fall into the fire, Xu Fengnian hurriedly supported her, and joked: "I'm waiting for the water to come out?"
Jiang Ni quickly wiped the corners of her mouth, stuffed Xiudong back into his hand, got up and fled to the side of the young fish Wei who was sleeping next to her.
Zhou Ji watched the two flirt and shook his head in silence, found an open space with a damaged roof, and bathed Si Teng in the cold moonlight to practice, while he sat beside him, staring at the tender buds swaying in the wind.
Yesterday, I made a temporary decision to sneak into Qingcheng Mountain, and I didn’t return until midnight. Before Xu Fengnian came to explain, it was already dawn. The relationship between Qingyang faction and Beiliang was too secretive. Before seeing Xiao Que’er to confirm, Xu Fengnian only told Zhou Ji and Wei Shuyang over this.
The convoy set off and went to the foot of Mount Qingcheng. Just as it was arranged last night, Xu Fengnian looked like the kind of reckless and ignorant stunned young man who came from a wealthy family.
The female crown guarding the mountain was provoked to set up a magic sword array, and a dozen female Taoist priests formed a human-shaped Arhat in groups of three and two, and with a few moves, they forced Lu Qiantang, who was bursting with blood, to retreat.
Chixia Sword Art burns blood, the more you use it, the deeper the injury, Xu Fengnian didn't want him to die here, so he ordered Shu Shuo to help break the formation.
Although Shu Hui was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to obey. However, the two of them worked together to knock down the swords of some of the female Taoist priests, while the rest of the Taoist priests also dropped their swords and retreated to the side of the female crown.
Shu Shu looked at the dozen or so swords planted on the ground, and suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart. Lu Qiantang, who was desperate to fight in groups, also showed a cautious look, with the Chixia sword horizontally in front of him, making a defensive gesture.
If you want to hide the truth from the Liyang royal family, the conflict must be real enough.
Zhou Ji and Wei Shuyang knew that this was Xu Fengnian and Wu Lingsu's plan, but Shu Shame Lv Qiantang and Shoushan Women's Crown knew nothing about it.
Swords blared continuously, and there were bursts of buzzing.
A group of Taoist priests made seals with their hands, and a dozen swords inserted around the two of them floated up in the air, like flying swords, pointing at Shu Shau, Lu Qiantang, and Xu Fengnian and the others behind them.
Xu Fengnian looked up at the female crown standing on the stone steps of the mountain gate, his eyes swept across the flying swords in the sky, and his expression was slightly dignified.
"Just now it was the Yuxiu Sword Formation, but now it is the real Shenyu Sword Formation." Wei Shuyang frowned slightly, and took two steps forward to explain.
Shu Yu and Lu Qiantang didn't get Xu Fengnian's order, so they couldn't advance or retreat.
The two sides confronted each other outside the mountain gate, and the atmosphere became extremely solemn.
Jiang Ni raised the curtain of the car, showing a trace of worry, looked at Li Chungang, who raised his legs and scratched his head with the pen, frowned and said, "You're not going to make a move?"
"That kid didn't make a move, why did the old man make a move?" Li Chungang shook Erlang's legs, curled his lips in disdain.
Jiang Ni glanced at the carriage at the back, seeing that Zhou Ji hadn't moved for a long time, she pursed her lips and sat back in her original position.
Li Chungang glanced at Jiang Ni, put down his pen, smiled and said: "However, if you worship me as your teacher, I can also help Xu Xiaozi."
Jiang Ni pursed her mouth, and glared at Li Chungang angrily, "Don't pull it out."
Li Chungang smiled and continued to write something on the paper.
Not long after, there was a rush of horseshoes in the distance, and Ning Emei, who was ordered, led the Fengzi Battalion to come, and the army gathered at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, and the flames of war were imminent.
Seeing the commotion getting louder and louder, Wu Lingsu, who had been observing in secret for a long time, realized that the time was ripe, tidied up his clothes, walked up the steps, stood under the mountain gate, and said proudly: "My son has come from a long way, why not enter Qingcheng Mountain to enjoy the mountain scenery."
Xu Fengnian remained expressionless, and said calmly, "Okay."
Wu Lingsu glanced at the convoy and the soldiers of the Fengzi Battalion, and said coldly: "The Qingyang sect is a place for Taoist cultivation, and the son of the prince can enter my Qingcheng Mountain alone."
Xu Fengnian stretched out his hand to stop Qingniao and Ning Emei, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, you should go back first."
"My son." Qingniao's eyes were full of worry, and he was about to say more, but was interrupted by Xu Fengnian: "Don't worry, I have my own plans."
After finishing speaking, Xu Fengnian slightly nodded at Wei Shuyang, passed through a group of Taoist priests guarding the mountain, and followed Wu Lingsu towards Qingyang Temple.
Jiang Ni frowned slightly, and glanced at Li Chungang next to him, knowing that if he asked him to take him up the mountain, he would definitely threaten him with "apprenticeship" and "learning martial arts", so he pouted, jumped out of the carriage, and met the surprised gaze of the blue bird. Zhong slipped to the carriage behind, knocked on the frame of the carriage, and wanted to ask Zhou Ji for help.
However, after she knocked for a long time, no one responded. When she lifted the curtain, she found that the car was empty. Zhou Ji, who was supposed to be sitting in it, had long since disappeared, but the sound of cracking melon seeds came from behind her.
"Are you looking for me?"
Jiang Ni was shocked, turned around and looked at Zhou Ji, only to realize that he got a handful of melon seeds from nowhere and handed them to herself, "Do you want to eat?"
Not far away, the corners of Lu Qiantang's mouth twitched, as if thinking of the uninterrupted sound of melon seeds in Lingzhou City back then, and Shu Shu who was next to him also had a weird expression, holding back his smile and moving away a few steps.
Knowing that Jiang Ni wanted to sneak up the mountain to have a look because he was worried about Xu Fengnian, Zhou Ji stuffed the melon seeds into his sleeves and readily agreed.
After all, men and women are not close to each other, whether it is clamping or carrying, there is some physical contact. Zhou Ji reached out and grabbed her by the collar, and the figure disappeared in a flash, only to hear the hunting wind howling in the ear, and Jiang Ni was left behind by Zhou Ji. I feel like a sack tied to a horse, full of wind
A sweet-looking woman in a plain blouse and a turmeric pleated skirt looked at the sunflower stalk in front of her in despair, and said without tears: "Where is my sunflower? Where is such a big flower plate?"
"Speak! Did you steal it?"
Turning to look at the iron-eating beast squatting next to it, the giant panda seemed to sense a dangerous aura, its round eyes were full of innocence, the bamboo pole it held was put down immediately, and its chewing mouth seemed to be still and stopped.
The woman picked up the half sunflower stalk on the ground with a straight face, and walked towards it expressionlessly.
The giant panda wanted to dodge, but he was reluctant to part with the bamboo pole on the ground. The innocence in his eyes turned into despair following the woman's outstretched arms. He watched her take the bamboo pole from his stomach without leaving even a leaf for him.
Comparing the fracture of the bamboo pole and the sunflower pole, the woman confirmed that the sunflower was not bitten off by the panda, and then threw the bamboo pole back in front of the panda.
Seeing that the rations were lost and recovered, the panda grinned, revealing sharp teeth, holding the bamboo pole in his arms, his eyes full of joy.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in the woman's mind, and she immediately remembered the 'crime scene' in Lingzhou City. Those sunflower poles seemed to be quite similar to this one.
The woman snapped off the sunflower pole with a bang, clenched her fists, and jumped angrily, "Don't let me know who it is, let alone catch me, or I'll make you look good!"
Seeing the woman going crazy again, the panda thought she was going to grab his belongings again, so he quickly picked up the bamboo pole and dragged it to the side, hiding behind a tree for fear of being discovered.
On the other side of Qingyang Temple, Zhou Ji sent Jiang Ni directly to Xu Fengnian and Zhao Yutai for a chat, while he went to find a gazebo in the courtyard to kowtow melon seeds and drink tea.
Seeing Xu Fengnian calling Aunt Zhao Yutai, Jiang Ni suddenly realized, no wonder he went up the mountain alone with confidence, because he already knew about the relationship between Qingyang Sect and Beiliang.
However, compared to Xu Xiao's arrangements for the Qingyang faction, Jiang Ni is more concerned about Zhao Yutai's murder of his wife.
Since she came to Beiliang Palace, Madam was the first person who smiled at her and treated her well.
Jiang Ni has always kept this sincere tenderness in his heart. When he learned of his wife's death, Jiang Ni and Xu Fengnian were equally eager to know the truth and avenge his wife.
It was related to Xu Fengnian's family affairs. If Xu Fengnian wanted to talk, he would tell him, so Zhou Ji didn't deliberately eavesdrop.
Wu Lingsu was somewhat suspicious of this strange man who suddenly broke into the Qingyang sect, so he kept chatting with Zhou Ji and observing his words and deeds.
Zhou Ji didn't care about this, and picked up what he could say and said something. During the chat, Jiang Ni came from the backyard. Wu Lingsu greeted her, said that the sect still had something to deal with, and then left.
Zhou Ji smiled and said, "Why did you come out? Where's Xu Fengnian?"
"He went to the back mountain with his aunt and said that Madam left something for him." Jiang Ni sat down on the other side of the stone table and said absently.
Zhou Ji shook his head and didn't ask any more questions. He suddenly saw a small head protruding from behind the wall, so he smiled and waved to her.
The little girl withdrew her head with an 'ah~', and it took a while before she dared to look this way again quietly.
Jiang Ni noticed Zhou Ji's actions and looked over, the little girl came out from behind the wall, walked closer, looked curiously at Zhou Ji and the pot of vines in his hand, and finally set her eyes on Jiang Ni .
Seeing that the other party has been staring at her, Jiang Ni cheered up and showed a kind smile, "Are you Xiaoqueer?"
Little Queer nodded, put her hands behind her back, and walked around the two of them like a little adult, talking nonchalantly, "Are you two a couple?"
Jiang Ni's chest was heavy, and he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He quickly denied, "Of course not!"
"I'm already married." Zhou Ji pushed the flower pot on the table, with an inexplicable sense of sight: "Here~ my wife."
"Really?" Xiao Que'er showed a skeptical expression.
"Of course it's true." Jiang Ni only felt the blood vessels in his forehead throbbing, and forced out a smile.
"Then you like Brother Fengnian?" Xiao Que'er's eyes lit up, showing a happy smile.
"No~!" Jiang Ni straightened her back and denied in a panic.
Little Queer looked Jiang Ni up and down, and saw that her eyes were wandering, revealing a trace of suspicion.
Zhou Ji had a half-smile, and flirted with Xiao Que'er, Xiao Que'er raised her eyebrows knowingly, and sat next to Jiang Ni.
Jiang Ni saw Xiaoqueer raising her eyebrows, and turned to look at Zhou Ji suspiciously, but seeing Zhou Ji looking at Si Teng gently, stroking the stretched vines, she couldn't help frowning, feeling something was wrong.
"Sigh~ Brother Fengnian is very nice, and he even taught me to blow leaves. I thought about it at the time. If I have a chance, I will be a matchmaker for him and find a good marriage for him." Xiao Que'er looked Jiang Ni up and down, and the more The more satisfied he looked, he pretended to be regretful and said, "However, now I have you."
"Wait, what do you mean you have me?" Jiang Ni was anxious when she heard that, and quickly retorted: "I have nothing to do with him, I am...at all."
Jiang Ni tilted her head, and her voice drifted a little, "I don't like him."
"Who do you not like?"
Xu Fengnian's voice came from the courtyard, and Jiang Ni stood up suddenly in shock, looking flustered, and didn't know how to place her hands.
"Who knows? It's not me anyway." Zhou Ji looked at Xu Fengnian and teased.
Little Queer burst out laughing, covered her mouth and said, "It's not me anyway."
Xu Fengnian seemed to be infected by the smiles of the two of them. Seeing that they were all looking at him, he laughed dumbly and said, "I just came here, so I can't be the one talking about me, can I?"
Jiang Ni's expression became more cramped, he hesitated to speak, and didn't know how to explain it.
Seeing this, Xu Fengnian shook his head and chuckled, and didn't continue to tease her, and smiled at Xiao Que'er: "The matter here is over, we are going down the mountain, will Xiao Que'er come with us?"
Little Queer glanced at Jiang Ni, and said with a smile: "Brother Fengnian, I have put your business aside just now, so I won't go with you."
Xu Fengnian was dumbfounded immediately, looked at Xiao Que'er, then at Zhou Ji Jiangni, stared wide-eyed and said, "No, what's the matter with me? Where did you put it?"
