Yun Wan looked stunned, and saw the same shock in Xie Tingyun's eyes.
She has complicated thoughts.
The last time he carried Liuchen back to the door, he knew that the two had a close relationship, but he didn't expect Xie Tingyun to directly enter the Yuhuiyuan.
Could it be... Liu Chen knew they were having an affair?
Yun Wan hid her emotions without leaving a trace, and silently turned her eyes away.
Xie Tingyun clenched his fists because of nervousness, if Liu Chen dared to reveal anything, then he would probably be finished.
Liu Chen pulled Xie Tingyun over and introduced them one by one: "This is Liu Miaomiao, my big disciple; this is..." He deliberately paused, looking at Xie Tingyun's stiff expression with interest, "Wanwan. But You should have known each other long ago."
Xie Ting Yun blinked.
This fellow made it clear that he deliberately made him unhappy.
Liu Chen didn't care about Xie Tingyun's increasingly gloomy face at all, smiled harmlessly, and said to the two of them: "This is Xie Tingyun, my former junior brother, who is currently worshiping in Cangwu Palace, please call your uncle .”
Xie Tingyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, luckily Liu Chen didn't call him Sui Yuan directly.
He returned to calm, and there was no expression in his eyes.
For some reason, Liu Miaomiao always felt that the person in front of her was very unpleasant.
With a cold pretty face, she reluctantly called Master Uncle, but when it was Yun Wan's turn, she couldn't speak no matter what, staring straight at Xie Tingyun's face, she didn't say anything for a long time.
"Wanwan, why don't you call?"
"Master, Master Uncle." Yun Wan stopped talking and called out reluctantly.
Xie Tingyun raised his eyebrows, Liu Chen deliberately recognized Yun Wan, but didn't reveal his real identity, whether he had a conscience or no conscience.
Liu Chen dragged a few people to sit and drink tea, the atmosphere on the small tea table was extremely awkward.
Xie Tingyun was holding the teacup with one hand, his long sleeves were rolled up, exposing a delicate wrist bone, and his downward fingers were slender and distinct. He lowered his eyebrows and looked lonely.
—pretentious.
Liu Miaomiao looked at him with a murderous look in his eyes.
Yun Wan was afraid that she would be suffocated if she didn't speak any more, so she took the initiative to break the silence: "Thanks... Uncle Shi also came from Kunshan before?"
After Yun Wan realized it, she felt a little strange. She only knew that Xie Tingyun was Suiyuan's apprentice, and she didn't have a deeper understanding of what happened before. Curious about Xie Tingyun's past.
Liu Chen shook his head: "We are Xu Qing's disciples, honored by Xie Chen Yuan, and we practiced separately, and we haven't seen each other for a hundred years."
Xuqing Yuanzun was placed five hundred years ago, and he was a figure who could make the entire cultivation world tremble.
He didn't set up a sect, didn't set up a title, and lived in seclusion in the mountains with a water cloud body. In this life, he has only accepted three apprentices, Xie Tingyun and Liuchen are among them. After Xu Qing was martyred, Liu Chen joined the Kunlun School in Kunshan and became the head of the Yuhui Academy; Xie Tingyun alone set up the Cangwu Palace in the remote Cangshan Minghai. After the battle of Youdu a hundred years ago, the two brothers Never saw each other again.
Yun Wan suddenly realized that it was Xie Tingyun who worshiped Sui Yuan as his teacher after this.
But she reasonably suspects that Xie Tingyun is not just an ordinary disciple of Cangwu Palace, maybe he is also an elder or chief.
Xie Tingyun obviously didn't want to hear these old things, so he put down his wine glass and made no sound.
"Miaomiao, take your junior sister for a stroll."
Liu Miaomiao nodded, and pulled Yun Wan out of Yingxingyuan.
The tea house was silent, Xie Tingyun was about to leave with a flick of his sleeves, but Liu Chen stopped him: "You don't think that I took Wanwan as a disciple just to find you unhappy, right?"
Xie Tingyun was silent.
"Help me." Liu Chen stretched out his arm.
Xie Tingyun was impatient, but he still stretched out his hand reluctantly, keeping him far away, afraid of making physical contact with Liuchen, and deliberately hid his hand in his sleeve, his eyes showed undisguised repulsion and resistance.
Liu Chen didn't hold it steady, and as soon as he stood up, he fell back heavily on the mat. Xie Tingyun's expression froze, and he suddenly noticed that Liu Chen's fingers were stiff and his nails were covered with black air.
Xie Tingyun cast a spell to draw out the black air, and the evil breath floating in front of his eyes gathered into a hideous and ugly insect shape. The black insect kept twisting its body in the air, Xie Tingyun dispersed the black insect, and his expression changed instantly.
— Soul-destroyer.
There is no cure for this evil spirit in the body, and there is no surgery to remove it.
Under the torment, the evil person will gradually lose the ability to move, speak and perceive, and finally become a useless person who cannot speak or move.
What's even more tragic is that his consciousness will be very clear. For a cultivator with a long lifespan, this is a torture that is more terrible than death.
The physical body becomes a purgatory, and eternal life imprisons the soul from which there is no escape.
Xie Tingyun never thought that Liuchen would be hit by this evil spirit.
He never revealed anything either.
Liu Chen's lips were pale, and his smile remained undiminished: "I used to come and go freely like you, showing off freely; now I can only count the time in this Yuhuiyuan." I lost everything."
In the Battle of Youdu, a total of 79 disciples from Yuhuiyuan participated in the battle, and only one returned in the end.
His disciple who died tragically was buried in the piano tomb at the back of the courtyard, and the soul-destroyer that recurred day and night reminded him of the fierce battle a hundred years ago.
For the living, the battle is over; for Liuchen, he will never escape that day in his life.
"Gui Yun, I won't live long." When he said this, Liu Chen was still leisurely and casual, with clear eyes and no fear, "Miao Miao is lonely and has no one to rely on, there must be someone to rely on."
Xie Tingyun's eyes became sharper, and he asked: "Let Wanwan be your apprentice just to find support for your apprentice?"
Pretty fussy.
Liu Chen didn't answer, but suddenly changed the topic: "Wanwan's bones are not good, if it doesn't change, it may be difficult to make a breakthrough."
Xie Tingyun asked back: "Do you have an idea?"
Liu Chen raised his eyes: "Change a spirit bone."
Xie Tingyun is thoughtful.
How clever... Why didn't he think of it at the beginning.
Xie Tingyun turned around, jumped over the window and was about to jump away.
Liu Chen didn't bother to remind him to go to the main entrance, and teased lightly: "Why, go find the spirit bones for Wanwan?"
"No." Xie Tingyun looked back, "You are her master, I have no right to intervene in her affairs inside the sect, and... Wanwan will not be happy for me to do this."
Xie Tingyun would not disregard Yun Wan's opinion and do something that he thinks is very touching.
They ascetics rely on themselves to become immortals and cannot rely on others.
"and you?"
"Go to Sishu, and get the dragon beads for you."
Liu Chen's pupils shrank, and he lost his voice.
Si Shu is located in the gap between the Six Realms, a land of the underworld that is more terrifying than the Demon Realm, and the six-headed dragon is an ancient beast, responsible for guarding Si Shu's world. According to legend, the six-headed Jiaozhu is a **** of heaven and earth, and those who swallow the Jiaozhu can regenerate six roots, and even if a person dies, they can reunite the three souls and seven souls.
But legends are legends after all, no one has dared to approach Si Shi for so many years.
"Thank you Tingyun..."
"The debt is canceled." Xie Tingyun jumped out of the window, "That's it."
"...??"
Who made the deal with you? !
Xie Tingyun walked gracefully, without any wind in his clothes, and disappeared in Qingfengyuan in a blink of an eye.
But quickly turned back, and leaned against the window: "Baolong..."
Liu Chen said leisurely, "That Baolong ship is a gift for the little disciple."
Xie Tingyun was silent for a while: "On purpose?"
Liu Chen: "No intention."
His Qing wants to listen to thousands of miles with bird ears, and when he was flying in the sky, he accidentally heard Xie Tingyun whispering to a woman, and he couldn't wait to convey it to him when he turned around.
Who would have thought that Yun Wan would come to Kunshan at such a good time?
Xie Tingyun held back his anger, flicked his long sleeves, and never looked back.
**
Yunding in Kunshan is silent.
Liu Miaomiao sorted out a side room for Yun Wan. She took off her clothes and carefully raised her legs to step into the bathtub. Before her body was completely wrapped in warm water, someone opened the small window in front of her. Xie Tingyun stood outside the window, and She faced each other, staring with big eyes.
Xie Tingyun frowned, and turned to her naked body, "Sorry."
The window snapped shut firmly again.
Yun Wan called him back with a question mark on his face: "You come in."
"Oh." Xie Tingyun reopened the window, jumped into the room without hesitation, condescending, expressionless, his gaze stayed on the mica screen behind.
Serious and upright.
It's like a gentleman.
Yun Wan sat in the bathtub, stretched out her hand to pass the towel over, her eyes were black and bright: "Rub my back."
Hearing the sound, Xie Tingyun obediently took the towel, walked around behind Yunwan's back, rolled up his sleeves, and rubbed her back with a grunt.
This hand is really strong.
Yun Wanwan had never been made like this in the Northeast Bathhouse in her life.
finally.
It's broken.
Xie Tingyun's eyelashes flickered, and he commented on this: "You don't rub your back."
"..." Kill him?
"Are you okay?" Yun Wan was impatient and grabbed the towel, "Leave early, I'm not the only one staying here."
Xie Tingyun opened his mouth, and just as he uttered a word, he heard footsteps approaching.
He flew to hide on the beams of the roof, using invisibility to hide his figure, at the same time, Liu Miaomiao knocked on the door: "I want to come in."
Not a question, but a report.
Although her tone was arrogant, she still obediently stood at the door waiting for Yun Wan to respond.
Yun Wan glanced at the roof, and called back, "Senior Sister, come in, I'm taking a bath."
Liu Miaomiao pushed the door open and entered, looked around, politely did not go into the screen, cleared her throat: "Junior Sister, no one has come in here before?"
Yun Wan: "No, I have always been alone."
"That's good." Liu Miaomiao looked around vigilantly, "The uncle who came today seems to be tricky, I'm afraid he will sneak in secretly, since you are fine, then it's fine." Liu Miaomiao's sixth sense is always accurate, There is no reason to bother Xie Tingyun since seeing him.
Liu Miaomiao was not at ease, and decided to go to other places to check, so as not to give the wicked people an opportunity.
She left quickly, Yun Wan looked at Xie Tingyun who jumped off the beam with a sweet smile, "Uncle, if you don't leave, my senior sister will really trouble you."
Xie Tingyun was slightly annoyed and couldn't reveal it.
He knew that the more emotional he was, the more Yun Wan would push forward.
"I'm going to visit Shifu."
Yun Wan was taken aback.
In the original book, Si Shu was mentioned. In the legendary Netherworld, the male protagonist Chu Lin almost died in Huangquan once.
That is a place of no return.
"You... why are you going there?"
"Do something."
Yun Wan bit her lip, and the light in her eyes dimmed a little bit: "Then can you come back smoothly?" The heroine in the novel is Si Shi who escaped after a narrow escape. Of course Yun Wan believes that Xie Tingyun is also capable of coming out, but Still can't help worrying, after all, he is cannon fodder, and others are the protagonists, so there is no comparison.
"Yes." The double cultivation in those few days allowed Xie Tingyun to grow back a part of his cultivation, and now he has barely recovered to the Golden Core Stage, even if it is difficult to deal with the Nine-Headed Jiao, he will not die.
Yun Wan asked again: "Are you rich?"
Xie Tingyun: "Earn while walking."
...this is really pathetic.
Yun Wan was moved, and raised her finger to the pile of clothes hanging on the screen: "Bring it here for me."
Xie Tingyun didn't know which one she was referring to, so he hugged them all.
Yun Wan rummaged through the storage bag, took out one of the small boxes and handed it over: "There are 100,000 spirit stones in here, probably enough for your journey."
Xie Tingyun's heart fluctuated.
The peerless sword also began to fluctuate.
Only Qi Ling was so heartbroken that he shouted: [Don't give it—! He is shameless when he eats soft food! ]
One hundred thousand.
How many bottles of pills would have to be sold to earn back!
Yun Wan pretended not to hear Xuan Ling's resistance, and handed it forward again.
Xie Tingyun's Adam's apple rolled, his heart fluttered for a moment, and he refused without hesitation: "No, I earn it myself."
Yun Wan tilted her head, full of anxiety: "How to make money, go to the black market to gamble?"
Thank you for listening to Yun Moran.
He was too arrogant before, and all the stone gambling factories in the black market added him to the list of people who cannot enter, and it is estimated that he will not be lifted in this life.
"Hold it." Yun Wan couldn't bear him being so awkward, grabbed Xie Tingyun's hand, and forcibly put the small box in his palm, "Apart from Lingshi, I also have some silver taels. If you have an inn, stay in an inn. Don't make do in the wild."
He gently stroked the small storage box, his heart moved slightly.
This is the first time since Xie Tingyun has lived for three hundred years, someone gave him so much money without asking for anything in return...
Xie Tingyun took one last look at her, jumped out of the window and left, his figure was quickly swallowed by the thick night.
He didn't close the window, Yun Wan got up from the tub, put on her clothes and came to the window, ready to close the wooden window.
However, at this moment, Xie Tingyun appeared in front of him again.
The falling rabbit closed the light, and it happened that a ray of bright moon dripped on the man's thick and crow-black eyelashes, which set off the mottled and dim eyes.
Xie Tingyun's jaw line was tense, his eyes were dark, he wanted to talk to Yun Wan a lot, wanted to tell her a lot, but in the end he couldn't say a word.
"Thanks…"
Yun Wan couldn't figure out what he was doing back here, so she called out a last name, and her cheeks fell into those warm palms.
She was in the window, he was outside the window, he closed his eyes and leaned over, kissing her forehead tenderly and reverently.
Even though it was only touched briefly, Yun Wan's heart skipped a beat.
This was a more lingering emotion than when the two were ambiguously entangled, and it made her fall into a trance all of a sudden.
Xie Ting Yun Dingding looked at Yun Wan with serious eyes—
Yun Wan forgot to blink, if Xie Tingyun said something at this time...she would definitely agree directly involuntarily.
However-
"I will pay you back the money."
After making a solemn promise, Xie Tingyun let go of his hand, and flew away with a whimper.
Yun Wan: "...?"
