Estranged - Chapter 146
The person in front of him, casually draped his outer clothes on his shoulders, was slouching and yawning.
He didn’t even bother to look up at the people coming from Zhengrong Villa, so he turned around and walked in. Several disciples looked at each other and followed behind.
“Fellow Daoist doesn’t let us search for the bed, is there any reason?”
Before coming, the disciple who searched had done his homework. This person was born in Jinque Taoist Palace, named Sun Wuxia, and he was the most outstanding figure in this generation of Jinque Taoist Palace. With the status of Jinque Taoist Palace, Sun Wuxia could barely live in Zhenlou, but he came alone, and together with Li Muxing and the others, he lowered his style, and Zhengrong Villa did not count him among the distinguished guests.
“Don’t listen to indecent words, don’t ask indecent words. Fellow Daoists should understand this truth.”
But the more he keeps people from seeing him, the more suspicious he becomes.
“The owner has orders, I have to abide by them, please forgive me, Sun Daoyou, on this bed, we only take a look…”
While speaking, the leading disciple lifted up the bed curtain, so fast that Chang Ming had no time to stop him.
But the next moment, the disciple turned his head to look at the bed, his expression became strange.
There was one person sitting up on the bed, with disheveled hair revealing a weak and timid face, only a pair of eyes were watery, like dewdrops rolling on young leaves on a spring night.
Under the trembling black hair, the white collarbone was exposed, so bright that people couldn’t move their eyes away, but after staring at it for a while, they suddenly felt abrupt, and moved their eyes away as if they were burning, and thought of another question: This woman is obviously not a monk Well, could it be that this person is carrying forbidden playthings with him when he is out of the house, so that he can vent his desire at any time?
The disciples of Zhengrong Mountain Villa have also seen many monks who are extravagant and extravagant. There must be maids when they go in and out, and how many people serve them in daily life, but there was only one Sun Wuxia when he came yesterday, why did he suddenly become a living person?
Thinking of the people above who asked him to search, the leader suddenly became vigilant.
“Where did this woman come from?”
“Since it was seen by a few of you…”
Chang Ming sighed softly, raised his hand, and the door closed automatically without wind.
The people in Zhengrong Villa thought that he wanted to attack, as if they were facing a big enemy, but they saw that the opponent took out a blank piece of paper from his sleeve.
The piece of paper is crooked and has a shapely outline. At first glance, it looks like a villain. Chang Ming clicked a few points on it, and after blowing a breath, the paper doll suddenly grew bigger and landed lightly. Under the gaze of a few pairs of eyes, it turned into a beautiful figure girl.
A girl with double buns, a goose-yellow dress, slender eyes, and a full forehead, saluted everyone.
“Fellow daoists, have you seen it? I don’t hide any monsters on my bed. It’s just a small spell. It’s not worth mentioning. This isn’t a long night. I played a little trick for myself.”
“This is, Transfiguration?” One of them asked in a daze.
“It’s the art of controlling things and transforming gods. Taoist friends have good eyesight.” Chang Ming smiled, took out a few white papers from his sleeve, and handed them over one by one. “This spell is the secret of my Jinque Taoist Palace. Please don’t tell it to fellow Taoists, otherwise the threshold of my place will be broken. These few cards are just a small meeting gift, not a respect.”
“Cultivators pay attention to being pure-hearted and ascetic, you, this…” The other party was very honest after waiting for a long time, and accepted the blank paper.
Changming is very innocent: “I just let her come out to talk with me. What does it have to do with innocence? Be careful with your actions. If the piece of paper is folded, it may be a lame person who blows it out.” It’s a girl.”
When they heard this, their movements became much gentler, and they carefully put the piece of paper into their arms.
“How do I use this thing?”
“Fellow daoists just need to think about what they want to look like before blowing their breath. Regardless of whether they are male or female, they will naturally get what they want, but remember, this is a spell after all, just for entertainment, and it can only last for one night at most. , It will return to its original state at dawn, and the paper will be automatically burned without leaving any traces. Just imagine, the long night is lonely, the red sleeves are fragrant, and always meditating quietly, and it is more interesting.”
“Only once?”
“Sun is not talented, this spell can only last for one night, and there are not many materials brought out this trip. After the Qianlin meeting is over, if you are interested, you can go to the Jinque Taoist Palace. Uncle Sun He is very good at this technique, and the paper puppets he makes are much more refined than mine, not only can he channel psychics, but he can even help his master avoid disasters when something happens.”
He said it casually, and fooled several disciples of Zhengrong Villa into a daze.
They are short-handed, soft-mouthed when they eat people, and they don’t hit people with smiling faces when they stretch out their hands. Not only are they no longer suspicious, but they also have a sense of intimacy at first sight.
“I’ve never heard of such a magical technique in the Golden Que Taoist Palace before. Sure enough, the world is so big that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. We are also ordered to do it today. I wish you Daoist Sun to win the battle tomorrow and become famous in the first battle!”
“Naturally, I understand what the Dao brothers said. This Zhengrong Villa has a profound heritage. After the Qianlin meeting, I would like to invite a few Dao brothers to have a light meal and introduce me to some noble elders, so that I can go back to do business. “
In fact, there is no need for him to say, as long as Jiufang Changming becomes famous at the Qianlin Meeting, Zhengrong Villa will naturally take the initiative to make friends.
With a few words, several disciples were coaxed happily, touched the paper puppets in their arms, and left the room satisfied.
Naturally, they will not pursue the people who appeared in Changming’s room anymore, after all, everyone now has a common secret.
Chang Ming sent people out of the house, watched them go away, went upstairs to search other rooms, closed the door, and turned back.
With a flick of his finger, the girl in the goose-yellow dress in front of the bed suddenly flattened, and soon turned into pieces of paper and fell to the ground.
As for the bed—
Chang Ming stretched out his hand to grab the forehead of the “woman” on the bed, and slowly tore off a layer.
When the “human skin” was torn off, it turned into white paper, and under the paper, Yun Weisi’s true face gradually recovered.
“Master’s mastery of controlling things and transforming gods has already transcended the ordinary realm and is worthy of supernatural work.”
Yun Weisi’s original understanding of this spell was only limited to the opponent’s ability to cut paper as a soldier and use spirit to control things, but he never expected that the opponent has now studied and improved several times, and has actually played this little spell that was not favored by many monks to perfection. , It is worthy of a generation of masters who have penetrated hundreds of schools.
“Your injury is not serious, why don’t you just rest here, don’t worry about tomorrow’s affairs.” Jiufang Changming said, he put the torn paper into the basin filled with water, and the paper quickly melted into the water and became invisible .
Yun Weisi didn’t answer and said instead: “Tomorrow Qianlin will meet, what do you think Luomei will do?”
This is a meaningful question.
Since “Jiang Li” was accused of colluding with demons in public, there will definitely be a follow-up tomorrow, drawing a “happy” ending for him.
Chang Ming said slowly: “I guess, to Luo Mei, the two of us are not his serious problems. In his eyes, Yao Wangnian, the undead ghost, is the real stumbling block. Tomorrow he may use Jiang Li, lure Yao Wangnian out.”
Yun Weisi sighed.
That’s what worries him.
Luo Mei must have already been fully prepared. He is not afraid of Yao Wangnian’s appearance, but he is afraid that Yao Wangnian will not appear. Only by putting the two disciples to death under the watchful eyes of the public can they ensure that they will never make waves again and lose their threat to Luo Mei’s grand plan.
“So I have to go. Tomorrow’s Qianlin meeting, Luomei’s lack of skills, is the best chance to save Jiangli and Chi Bijiang. It’s best if you can force Luomei to show her feet, but if you can’t, Jiangli has to come forward and testify Luomei.”
Even if Jiang Li personally testifies against Luo Mei, it may not be effective. Luo Mei always has a hundred ways to crucify Jiang Li. In the eyes of the world, the master is the sky, and the apprentice must bow his head. Luo Mei is not only the master, but also the suzerain of the Wanjian Immortal Sect. In this chess game, he is the chess player who is sure to win, and most of the others are chess pieces drifting with the tide.
The sky is dark and the wind and rain are blowing. The monks claim to be closer to the way of heaven than ordinary people, but in fact they are also in the chaotic world, ignorant, scrambling, and moving forward ignorantly.
“If, I mean if,” Yun Weisi looked at him deeply, as if he wanted to see into Jiufang Changming’s eyes. “Tonight is the last time we see each other. What do you want to say to me?”
“This won’t be the last time. If it were, I have never regretted it. I accepted you as an apprentice, and became a Taoist couple with you.” Chang Ming is not good at saying affectionate words, and his frowning expression is a bit cute. Weisi couldn’t help stretching out his hand to smooth it out a little bit, and then warmed it with his lips, so that the wrinkles between the brows were transformed by tenderness, and there would be no more ups and downs in this life.
“I know that in your life, you have been absorbed in the way of heaven and earth, and it is difficult to distract people or things around you. Among the four disciples, I used to think that I was the one who was the least noisy and made you worry the most, and also the least worried. care.”
But later he realized that whether the other party cared or not had nothing to do with how he was. Like a person, even if he is silent all day long, he likes it very much, and if he doesn’t like a person, even if he is perfect in every way, it is difficult to be tempted.
For Jiufang Changming, he first looked up at a high mountain, then approached the high mountain, tempered himself into a high mountain, and stood side by side with it.
Jiufang Changming told him—
“I have seen you since you were a baby. You and I have been destined for a long time. Even if you didn’t come to the Jade Emperor Temple in person to pay homage to your teacher, I will ask the junior brother in the capital to take care of you. Sooner or later, you will have a relationship with the Jade Emperor Temple.” .”
In fact, his relationship with Jade Emperor Temple is the relationship with Jiufang Changming.
“Later, you were talented and enlightened, and you were also a good seed for cultivation. I intend to cultivate you, and I have devoted far more attention to you than the other three.”
Hearing this, Yun Weisi smiled.
“Because I am your first apprentice.”
Changming pondered for a moment, then shook his head again: “The years when I took you as my apprentice should also be the most peaceful and comfortable years in my life, so Yun Weisi, you are my peace and tranquility. I like leisure and comfort, and so do I, but monks must be forced to work harder than ordinary people to reach the top step by step.”
But at that time, there must be no overstepping the boundaries between master and apprentice. One is to preach and receive karma to solve doubts, and the other is to seek knowledge and look up to learning. If there is no accident, Yun Weisi will become a strong one step by step under the guidance of the master, and then walk out of the world. Yun Weisi has indeed realized his own path, without Jiufang Changming, he is still the head of the Taoist sect, almost number one in the world, but a game broke the trajectory of the world, and also shattered the balance between them.
Maybe it was when Yun Weisi agreed to his plan and told him no matter what, I will be your strong back, even if I can’t now, I can in the future; maybe it was when he fought with demons, accidentally poisoned, and lost his mind , when many things flashed in his mind, but he was walking alone in the direction of Jade Emperor Temple; maybe it was when he arrived at the foot of Jade Emperor Temple and found Yun Weisi standing at the door, as if waiting for him to return—Chang Ming also knew later , since he left the Jade Emperor Temple, Yun Weisi would always stay in front of the mountain gate for a while every morning and evening. No one knew who Yun Weisi was waiting for, and Yun Weisi never said anything—the world is subtle, and the feelings are the same. , Chang Ming didn’t know when he understood clearly, but he could almost remember every detail about Yun Weisi.
This in itself is already a very special existence.
“I have to go now.”
Before he finished recalling carefully, the warmth on his lips disappeared, and Yun Weisi stood up, ready to leave.
His injuries are still not fully healed, but after a night of healing, he has improved a lot.
At dawn, the Qianlin meeting is about to begin, and Changming should also pass.
A night of tenderness is fleeting, and they have to part ways again, each going to the most dangerous cliff.
“Master.”
Yun Weisi suddenly stopped and turned around.
He still called Master, even if the two became Taoist couples, Chang Ming didn’t stop him and let him call.
It’s just that when the two of them were practicing double cultivation in bed with their lips and teeth attached, the word “shizun” that came out of each other’s mouth seemed to be particularly sensitive to Chang Ming, and it could also make Yun Weisi even more out of control.
But this time, the word “shizun” appeared solemn and solemn, without any intimacy.
“If there is still a chance, do it again, don’t let me enter the game again, I would rather accompany you to Huangquan, and don’t let me leave you again.”
Chang Ming was slightly taken aback, as if he didn’t expect him to make such a request.
To Yu Yunweisi, the scene where master and apprentice turned against each other back then was probably heart-piercing and a mountain collapsed.
He couldn’t understand it before, but now he gradually empathizes with the pain in his heart.
“it is good.”
If there is still an appointment with the underworld, we will go together.
Yun Weisi left quietly without disturbing anyone.
He has his own way, with his current level of cultivation, there may be few opponents in the entire Zhengrong Villa, except Luomei, but Luomei will not fight them alone, there will be traps set up by the opponent everywhere in the Zhengrong Villa .
Chang Ming tidied up his clothes, washed his face, and as soon as he put down his handkerchief, Li Muxing came.
“Sun Daoyou, how did you rest last night?”
“I used to sleep well, but after those people broke in and said they wanted to search, I didn’t feel sleepy in the middle of the night, so I could only meditate.”
Li Muxing felt sad when he heard the words, helpless and angry.
“I don’t believe that they dare to be so abrupt when treating Zhenlou’s guests!”
Before Chang Ming could answer, someone outside responded: “It’s nothing more than a dog’s eyes that see people as inferior and bully them with their power!”
Lin Wenyu had a face full of indignation.
“Second Junior Brother! We are under the roof. We left after the Thousand Forests Meeting is over today. Don’t cause trouble.” Xia Zheng warned him, and then said to Changming Li Muxing, “Two fellow Taoists, while it’s still early, Let’s go to draw lots first, the sects are full of talents, if we draw a strong enemy at the beginning, I’m afraid it will hinder the mood later.”
The other three people had no objection, and the group soon came to Haoran Terrace, where the Qianlin Club was held.
