Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 285 Lingye’s wings are hardened

The night is long.

In an attic window facing the water, a blue-eyed white cat squatted on the window sill, wagging its tail and looking at the fish in the river.

Behind the white cat, there was the carved soft couch that he always carried with him.

Shangguan Lingye's face was red, and he was leaning on the soft couch, reading the book in his hand under the autumn moon shining through the window.

Spring Palace and Autumn Moon, no matter which one, it is easy for people to toss and turn in sleep, especially Shangguan Lingye who has just experienced the beauty of the world, and suddenly returns to the days of being alone in an empty room with only raccoon slaves for company, it is inevitable to feel a little restless in the heart.

"well……"

A sigh.

Shangguan Lingye closed the "Illustrated Manual of Military Use", stood up and looked around. There was really nothing to do, so he picked up the white cat, walked out of the attic, walked along the corridor, and admired the night view of Lianjiang River.

The waterside pavilion is a single-family courtyard, surrounded by bamboo groves, with no outsiders to disturb it. It is quiet and quiet. You can see that there is also candlelight in another room not far from the corridor.

Shangguan Lingye walked to the window with graceful steps and glanced inside.

There are not many objects in the elegant room, and there is no one on the bed. Wu Qingwan, wearing a cyan skirt, sits alone at the desk, using the light of the candlestick to carefully polish the... white jade stopper in her hand?

? ?

Shangguan Lingye's world view has been almost destroyed by the two of them these days. He has seen too many things that he dare not look at, so he naturally understands what this is.

Her eyes subconsciously moved to the back of Qingwan's full skirt, and she tilted her head slightly, seemingly recalling the way Qingwan wagged her tail.

Shangguan Lingye did not hide her figure. The sudden dim moonlight made Wu Qingwan aware of someone outside the window. She quickly hid the things in her hands under the table and turned her head to check.

Eyes facing each other.

it is more than words.

Wu Qingwan took out the jade again and continued to polish it carefully with tools, pretending that Shangguan Lingye did not exist.

Shangguan Lingye touched the white cat's head, and slowly came to the observation deck without disturbing Qingwan to dig a hole for herself.

The viewing platform is square in shape, with a suspended lower part and a sunshade roof above. There is carpet inside and a chess table and piano table.

There were no more pipa tunes in the observation deck. When Shangguan Lingye walked up to it, he found that Xie Qiutao, who was not drinking well, was lying on the carpet and fell asleep with an iron pipa as a pillow. The big and white dumpling was used by Xie Qiutao as a pillow. Holding him in his arms, he also slept soundly with his head tilted.

However, Tuanzi didn't drink, and his alertness was not bad. He opened his eyes when someone came over. He originally wanted to say "chirp~", but found that Taotao was sleeping soundly. Tuanzi was still very sensible and just opened his beak to beg for small fish. Dry, no hello.

Shangguan Lingye nodded slightly, showed a complimenting smile, threw the dried fish into Tuanzi's mouth, then took out a blanket and lightly covered Xie Qiutao; although the monk was not afraid of the cold and heat, this move was a bit redundant, but it seemed It's always better than a little girl sleeping outside in the open air.

There were only a few people in the courtyard. Shangguan Lingye walked around and naturally came to the second-floor wing where Tang Jingxuan stayed.

The lights in the room were still on, and people could be vaguely seen walking in it, but no sound could be heard.

Shangguan Lingye thought that Jing Xun was being hugged by Zuo Lingquan, and in that embarrassing posture, his eyes changed imperceptibly.

Boudoir etiquette came first, so Shangguan Lingye would not disturb his sister's good things, but knowing the taste of food, he did not suppress the curiosity in his heart. He stood there and hesitated for a moment, threw the cat back, and touched the window of the room.

"Meow meow?"

The sound of a cat is the best cover in the night.

Shangguan Lingye came to the window. He wanted to take the opportunity to break through the formation that concealed the sound and take a look at the spring scenery inside. Unexpectedly, before he could do anything, the door opened and a figure came out.

Squeak——

! !

Shangguan Lingye wanted to dodge and leave, so as not to be caught by the wall when he didn't listen, but when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw Tang Jingxun.

The clothes on Tang Jingxun's body were neat, her expression was unsmiling, and she was looking at her with a pair of eyes that looked down on all sentient beings...

Master? !

Shangguan Lingye's body was slightly stiff, and then his eyes were full of disbelief. He looked at the room, and then at the master in front of him:

"Master, you...why are you in the room?"

You think I want to?

The ancestor of Shangguan was expressionless, and tilted his head to indicate the end of the corridor:

"Come here, I have something to tell you."

"oh……"

Shangguan Lingye had a strange expression and followed his master slowly. When he passed the door, he glanced at it as fast as lightning - in the room, Zuo Lingquan was sitting upright on the chair, with worry between his brows. The sorrow of the country and the people seems to be thinking about major issues related to the people's livelihood in Kyushu.

Shangguan Lingye secretly breathed a sigh of relief...

——

A little earlier.

Ancestor Shangguan left the sacred fire Grotto-Heaven, suppressing the desire to die deep in his soul, and headed to the sea beyond the barren mountains, with Lord Peach Blossom chasing after him.

Based on Patriarch Shangguan's teachings, it is not difficult to get rid of the pursuers, but she understands Lord Peach Blossom's temperament. If Lord Peach Blossom is really thrown away, Lord Peach Blossom will be so angry that he will definitely run to Tiechu Mansion to call for battle. , let everyone know about the incident, and it will be even more difficult for her to explain it in front of her disciples and grandchildren.

But stopping to have a good chat with Lord Peach Blossom is not enough.

Ancestor Shangguan could clearly feel that Tang Jingxun was acting like a monster. It seemed that a big hand was moving around, um... maybe there was still a tongue...

These feelings originate from the depths of the soul. The Shangguan ancestor is not dead, and there is nothing wrong with his body. The information that his body is stimulated will naturally give appropriate feedback. It is impossible to avoid it unless the source is cut off.

The Shangguan Patriarch is being chased by Lord Peach Blossom, and his spirit Astral Projection goes to beat the mandarin duck with a stick. Lord Peach Blossom will definitely find his true body and find something strange. If he doesn't beat the mandarin duck with a stick, the two of them don't know when they will stop. It can be said that they are in a dilemma at the moment.

Fortunately, after staying up for half an hour, there was a little restraint there.

The ancestor Shangguan took this opportunity to stop on the boundless blue sea, and looked back at Yuyaozhou.

Under the silver moon, a group of translucent petals moved with the wind, but in an instant, it came to the sea and transformed into a graceful flower letter beauty.

The beauty was originally furious, but when she saw the Shangguan Ancestor stopped, she felt a little scared. Her angry tone subdued, and she turned to a dignified stance, her face as serious as water and said:

"Shangguan Yutang, the real body of this deity is not here. You lured me overseas to avoid the eyes of many lords and lynch me?"

The soul of the monk Astral Projection is only a part of the soul of the main body. Although it is not fatal to be beaten, it is still a trauma. Lord Peach Blossom said this, obviously because he was afraid that the ancestor Shangguan would not be able to say it, so he did it.

But to Lord Peach Blossom's surprise, Shangguan Yutang, whose nostrils were up in the sky in the past, did not raise his eyebrows uncharacteristically, but slowly floated to her, looking at her calmly like a big sister:

"Yingying, are you still angry with me?"

? !

Oh my God! The master of Peach Blossom Master is all confused! She looked at the woman in the golden skirt in front of her in disbelief, looked up and down, then stepped back a little, and said angrily:

"Where are you monster!? What did you do to Shangguan Yutang?"

Shangguan Patriarch shook his head with a rare smile:

"I deliberately scolded you today and brought you here, but I actually wanted to apologize to you..."

? ? ?

For such a weird reason, no one except Shangguan Patriarch could think of it.

The guard in Lord Peach Blossom's eyes instantly turned into anger, and he cursed:

"Is there something wrong with your mind?"

"well……"

There was indeed something wrong with Shangguan Patriarch's mind, but it was really hard to talk about it. She sighed softly:

"I was really unkind to you in the past, but you should understand my difficulties. Sitting in this position, sometimes I really can't do anything..."

The tone was calm. Although it was not like the style of Shangguan Ancestor, it sounded much more comfortable.

Lord Peach Blossom naturally understands the difficulties faced by Shangguan Ancestor. She does not hate Shangguan Yutang, but she is just a little angry between women.

Seeing Shangguan Yutang apologize with the sun rising to the west, Lord Peach Blossom was stunned for a long time before frowning and saying:

"Um...what exactly do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. I will eventually enter reincarnation, and I can't sit in this position forever..."

"Is your deadline coming soon? Oh no... no, don't scare me..."

"No, it's just that in the past few years, there have been turbulent storms all over Jiuzhou, and there are signs of a storm coming; if Jiuzhou really falls into war, I will definitely lead the way, and I may not survive to the end... When the time comes, I hope you can help Lingye and Zuo Lingquan are direct descendants of each of the nine sects. Although I am very rude to you, you are the only one who can trust me to take care of you..."

Even though Patriarch Shangguan said these words under abnormal circumstances, every word was sincere and there was no falsehood whatsoever.

Lord Peach Blossom hesitated for a long time. After confirming that Shangguan Patriarch was not joking, he calmed down and hummed softly:

"It's right to support the juniors, why do you need to speak up; besides, what does it matter to you if I help Zuo Lingquan? He is also my junior, and his relationship with me is no different from yours..."

No different from me?

Ancestor Shangguan really didn’t want to say anything, so she waved her hands and said:

"Okay, that's it, you can go back."

Lord Peach Blossom was scolded inexplicably, and then he was chased over to arrange things. After the arrangements were made, he was told to get out. No matter what he thought, something was wrong.

But what she just said really aroused Lord Peach Blossom's worries about the future. She did not scold Shangguan Yutang anymore, but considered it carefully and said:

"You have been hard-working since you were a child. It is not a problem for you to survive the old turtle under the Yunshui Sword Pond. You have nothing to worry about. Even if there is a fight and you charge into the battle, I will not stand by and watch. I will save you just like Master did. your……

"... If you and Master collide, don't worry about me adding insult to injury. If you can't beat Master, I will naturally ask for a way out for you... although the chance of survival is slim. You guys, your hearts are all stone. The long one looks really pitiful to me..."

After Lord Peach Blossom sighed, he felt that today's quarrel could not be continued, so he turned around and headed back to Yuyaozhou. However, after walking not far, he couldn't help but add:

"Don't worry, even if you are really dead, I will burn paper on your grave during the holidays. Well...I will burn two more papers for you. The man can go and relieve his boredom. The old yellow girl who has not been wanted by a man for thousands of years, alas... "

"roll."

Lord Peach Blossom is satisfied...

——

The other side.

In the room along the Lianjiang River, Zuo Lingquan was playing with fire seriously by candlelight, and the white jade tiger's plate was filled with water.

Tang Jingxuan, half-undressed, lay on the pillow, his hands hooked around Zuo Lingquan's neck and never let go, and whispered from time to time:

"Don't worry, you damn mother-in-law is busy with her own business and has no time to care about us. It's already half an hour, it's time to come here."

"Haha... I don't know what's wrong, I'm just a little nervous..."

Zuo Lingquan held Jingxun in his arms, with a slight uneasiness on his brows - the ancestor didn't respond for such a long time, and he felt something was getting more and more wrong. In the end, his methods became cautious, similar to Tuo Lei.

Tang Jingxun knew that the ancestor was very angry, but she just wanted to have an intimate relationship with her lover. What was wrong with her?

So she still hugged Zuo Lingquan and didn't let go. She found that Zuo Lingquan was gradually becoming more behaved, and she was a little dissatisfied when she couldn't get up or down. She turned against the guests and kissed Zuo Lingquan's face.

Faced with this situation, what can Zuo Lingquan do? I can only grit my teeth and continue playing with fire.

But playing with fire will eventually burn you out, and what is supposed to come will come.

Zuo Lingquan was kissing Jingxun and gently comforting him, when he suddenly noticed that Jingxun's body stiffened, and then wisps of golden light appeared between his pupils, and his expression changed from affectionate to cold-blooded.

hiss……!

Although Zuo Lingquan had already been mentally prepared, he was also frightened and did not dare to move again.

There was silence in the room, except for the flickering candlelight, which cast their reflections on the wall.

Shangguan Patriarch came over very quickly, and his face turned into a frosty expression in the blink of an eye. Just like the first time, he tilted his head and moved his lips away, and took a "poof-" out of the bed, which showed how annoyed he was. .

Zuo Lingquan didn't dare to think about it. He reacted and wanted to get up, but found that he couldn't move. He could only look at the ancestor under him awkwardly. What he meant was:

"What a coincidence, we meet again..."

The irritation in Patriarch Shangguan’s heart was self-evident, but after sending Lord Peach Blossom away, he was secretly relieved in his heart. She leaned on the pillow and looked at Zuo Lingquan coldly. Just as she was about to speak, she realized that the current situation was wrong - Zuo Lingquan maintained a kissing posture. Although he did not dare to provoke the white jade tiger, he placed his hand on the snow-white dumpling head. superior.

"..."

The Shangguan Ancestor was indeed mentally strong and did not show any abnormalities. He pushed Zuo Lingquan away, sat up slowly, pulled up the flower carp, buttoned the cloth, and said:

"Do you know why I came here today?"

Zuo Lingquan was lying on the pillow unable to move. He could only use his peripheral vision to see the back of a perfect woman sitting in front of her and putting on clothes. Her aura made her feel as if she was about to throw hundreds of taels of silver beside the pillow and get up. of.

It was naturally difficult for Zuo Lingquan to express these thoughts. He could speak seriously and said:

"Hmm... I'm not sure. Is it what Jingxun and I are doing? Senior Shangguan can sense it?"

This is indeed the case, but Shangguan Ancestor cannot say that. If Zuo Lingquan knew that she could feel the same way, many things would become unclear after so many times.

"I have a connection with Tang Jingxun's soul and can sense her emotions. If her emotions are too heavy, I will be affected and find it difficult to concentrate. If she does this during a life-and-death fight, I will probably Do you understand that his death has disappeared?"

As Shangguan Patriarch spoke, he buttoned up his clothes. He wanted to put on the black stockings he had thrown aside, but as soon as he raised his legs, he realized that the posture was inelegant, so he threw them aside again. He stood up and put on his embroidered shoes. .

Zuo Lingquan thought about this when he learned that two people could sense each other's emotions, and he said:

"If this is the case, this matter must be treated with caution... But Jingxun does not have the experience of her predecessors, which makes her feel calm all the time, which is not easy to do..."

Ancestor Shangguan felt something was wrong all over. He walked slowly around the room to hide his discomfort:

"This is a matter between you and her. If she can't calm down, I can help you calm down, and she will naturally settle down."

The words are threatening.

Zuo Lingquan felt a chill somewhere. Before he could respond, he saw the ancestor walking around the room. His body swayed twice, as if he was out of control, and his tone also changed:

"Why? You wanted to eat the big phoenix yourself, and you ended up like this. I haven't brought you any trouble, but you still dare to threaten Xiao Zuo? Did we hurt you like this?"

"I surrendered the remnant soul of the Nine Phoenixes to save you from having your body stolen. However, this has left hidden dangers for your soul. Do you think it has nothing to do with you?"

"If you surrender, surrender. What will you do if you eat?"

"If I don't refine it, can I keep it for fun? Or should I give it back to the stolen elixir?"

"You...then you can't do this. Did Xiao Zuo and I do anything wrong? Why should I stay a widow with you?"

"The matter has already happened, and there is no solution yet. If you feel that the matter has nothing to do with you, then I have no other choice..."

The charming woman was talking to herself in the room, her movements a little unbalanced.

Fortunately, the tone of the two people was so different that Zuo Lingquan could tell who was speaking, and he interjected:

"If it interferes with the ancestor's state of mind, then we really can't sit idly by and ignore it, but what Jingxun said makes sense... Otherwise, if Jingxun wants to do something in the future, he should say hello to senior Shangguan first and see if it's convenient. ? Of course, the shock caused by accidents cannot be avoided..."

This suggestion is a good solution.

Tang Jingxun is not an unreasonable woman, she just wants to ensure the rights of herself and her lover. When Zuo Lingquan said this, she agreed:

"That's pretty much it. Whatever I want to do in the future, I'll say hello to you first. It's convenient for you, and I'll be busy with my own business, okay?"

Ancestor Shangguan didn't really want to agree, but she couldn't let Tang Jingxuan remain as pure as a jade for hundreds of thousands of years, so she still responded:

"Can."

Originally, when the conversation ended here, the matter was over.

But Tang Jingxun settled the accounts very well and said:

"Mother, I'm thinking of you and I'm giving in. You have to show it, right?"

"What else do you want?"

"It's nothing. I just want you to tell your apprentice that since you have entered the Zuo family and become a family, you must follow the rules of the family. First come, first served. Do you understand the meaning?"

"Zuo Lingquan should say this."

"Alas, when a man says this, he offends his wife. You are a teacher, and you should teach your disciples how to be a good person. I am just giving you a reminder, and I am not forcing you to let her be a little girl... No, she has always been Being the last to enter, even in the Immortal Family, there is no reason to be the last to enter and become a senior brother, don’t you think so?"

"no."

"If you don't care about my affairs, then I won't care about yours. From now on, I will be with Xiao Zuo Lai every day. Do you think it will be okay if we separate from Xiao Zuo? It's not like I can't do that myself, and I don't want to trouble you. That’s all…”

? ?

Zuo Lingquan blinked and wanted to interrupt but was speechless.

Shangguan Ancestor and Tang Jingxuan were bargaining and talking trivially for a long time. Before the discussion could come to a conclusion, there was movement outside.

"somebody is coming?"

"It's Lingye."

Ancestor Shangguan wanted to leave, but Tang Jingxun was too annoying. After some consideration, she turned around and opened the door.

Squeak——

"Master?! You..."

Zuo Lingquan was still lying in disheveled clothes. When he heard the sound, he quickly sat up, put on his clothes like a thunderbolt, and sat on the chair with a serious expression...

————

outside the room.

After Shangguan Lingye took a look inside the room, he followed Shangguan Patriarch to the end of the corridor.

The corridor is close to the Lianjiang River. The two of them stood by the fence, facing the river breeze at night, their clothes making a slight noise.

Shangguan Lingye was at a loss and was about to ask his master what was going on. However, he found that the skirt of the woman in front of him was blown up by the wind, revealing her white calves. She seemed to be wearing nothing...

?

Shangguan Lingye tilted his head slightly and stopped the idea of ​​lifting up his skirt to check.

Ancestor Shangguan didn’t pay attention to this detail and said calmly:

"I came here today to talk to Zuo Lingquan about spiritual practice. Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, which are inevitable, but they cannot be indulged. If you are too restrained, you will become a devil, and if you are too indulgent, you will also become a devil. This is the principle of the opposite of things. Do you understand? ?”

Shangguan Lingye is very indulgent these days, so he nodded naturally:

"I would like to follow Master's instruction, and I will pay attention to it in the future."

The ancestor Shangguan nodded slightly, fell silent for a while, and said:

"You used to think you were born as a fairy, and for your cultivation, you took my words as golden rules and never disobeyed them; now you look like a normal person at last."

"Oh... yeah..."

"Now that you are married, you have to treat yourself as a wife and behave in the world in the way of ordinary people. For example, the order of the family, the secular world pays attention to first come, first come first. Although you are old, you still have to pay attention to these rules. Pay attention to..."

?

Shangguan Lingye frowned in front of the master in a rare way.

If it were young, Shangguan Lingye would carefully write down what the master said, and even if he thought it was wrong, he would think it was his own problem.

But today is different, Shangguan Lingye is no longer the silly girl who blindly followed her back then.

Moreover, what the ancestor said is obviously a bit contradictory.

After being silent for a while, Shangguan Lingye said:

"Master, do you also take care of these housework?"

An imperceptible gratification and pride flashed in the eyes of the ancestor of Shangguan—is this just like her apprentice? She said it, but if the apprentice is disobedient, she doesn't care about her business.

"Hehe, it's good to have your own ideas, go back, I'll go first."

"oh……"

…

——

The lantern in the corridor swayed in the night wind, and under the lamp were two beautiful and charming women with different looks.

Tang Jingxun, who had her back to the fence, had a golden glint in her eyes, but in an instant, her serious face regained its former intimacy.

Shangguan Lingye, who was facing each other, restrained his awe, raised his head and chest, and folded his hands on his waist. Taking advantage of his height, he assumed the posture of a condescending lady:

"I just realized something was wrong here, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect Master to be here. Master has business to talk to Zuo Lingquan, and I disturbed sister Jingxun. Please forgive me."

She has a hammer to get to work... After Tang Jingxun regained control of her body, she realized that it was chilly under the skirt, so she pressed the skirt calmly, and walked slowly to the leeward side:

"Hmm... I was chatting with Xiao Zuo just now, damn... Senior Shangguan came over and didn't bother me."

Shangguan Lingye didn't believe it at all, but it was a matter of Master's innocence, so she didn't dare to think deeply, turned around and walked to the corridor:

"Go ahead and talk, I'll just come and have a look, don't bother me, I'll go back now."

Tang Jingxun naturally didn't want to be disturbed, but when she just explained about the dead woman, the dead woman was not kind, and she was a little unhappy in her heart. Seeing that Lingye was about to leave, she followed side by side, persuading:

"Actually, I could hear what you said just now. Senior Shangguan has a profound knowledge and sees farther than us, so what he said must have great truth... Well, isn't there an old saying, 'If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of you'... …”

Shangguan Lingye was wondering about Master making her the youngest. Seeing Tang Jingxun pulling up Master's banner to suppress her, she slowed down:

"The words just now, could it be that sister Jing Xun asked Master to convey it?"

Naturally, Tang Jingxun couldn't admit that she had made a deal with her ancestor in private, and said with a smile:

"You don't know the character of Senior Shangguan? How can you be manipulated by others, um... I just think her words are very reasonable, I should listen to them. If you are disobedient, the ancestor will probably be very annoyed..."

Naturally, Shangguan Lingye didn't understand what Tang Jingxun meant by "taking Master to order the princes", so he shook his head and said:

"I have my own opinions. Master will only be happy, not angry. Sister Jingxun's worries are probably superfluous."

Seeing this, Tang Jingxun couldn't say too much, she stood at the door and watched Shangguan Lingye leave.

Zuo Lingquan, who had been worrying about the country and the people for a long time, also came out at this time and asked Lingye to stay, but Lingye didn't want to disturb Jingxun who had just come over, so he didn't stay.

After Shangguan Lingye disappeared at the end of the corridor, Tang Jingxuan said:

"Damn it, ask her to say something. She has no sincerity at all, so don't blame me for not thinking about her..."

Zuo Lingquan was still thinking about the episode just now. He shook his head when he heard this and said: "If the ancestor's mood will be disturbed, we really can't mess around, um..."

"I know what's appropriate, don't I just say hello to her in advance..."

Tang Jingxuan held Zuo Lingquan's arm and entered the house, lace up her embroidered shoes, and then said to the air:

"Bitch, you just left. You shouldn't be busy, right? I'm going to sleep with Xiao Zuo. You should be mentally prepared in advance. Don't say I didn't inform you."

There was no sound in the room, but a response sounded in Tang Jingxun's mind:

"I have said everything that needs to be said. If you keep messing around, I will take you back now."

"Why am I so messed up? Didn't I say hello to you in advance? Are you busy? If you don't speak, I will assume that you are not busy."

"..."

After Tang Jingxun waited for a while, he snorted softly and pulled Zuo Lingquan towards the inner room:

"She's not busy. She's going to bed. Don't feel bad for me. She'll toss her hard. Don't come into my house until she makes me cry."

?

Zuo Lingquan had a strange expression: "Isn't this not good?"

"Are you still afraid of her? We did things as agreed and we didn't mess around."

"No, I'm telling you, go to the crying place, this..."

"Well... I'm not afraid. Come on, come on. Anyway, she has someone to back her up in death. Who wants her to do things without sincerity..."

"..."
