Chapter 22: Under the Moon and Before the Flowers
The clouds and fog dissipated, and the red candle on the desk was extinguished at some point, leaving two pools of red candle tears on the lampstand.
The room was dark, but there were still two warm yellow lights on the canopy bed, one at the head of the bed and one in the middle.
The curtain rippled slightly, and soft and waxy words echoed in it:
"Yutang, why didn't you respond at all?"
"How do you want me to react?"

"You...you are like a wooden person. If I don't look back, I won't even know that Ling Quan has gained strength."
"You think everyone is like you, just howling when there is any trouble..."
"Pfft... Just hold it in. Anyway, it's you who feel uncomfortable, not me..."
…
There are white flowers between the curtains, which makes people dizzy if they stare at them for a long time, but they are reluctant to look away.
Zuo Lingquan wore a glowing dragon-patterned hair ornament on his head, with a smile in his eyes as he worked on his skills.
Shangguan Yutang has a dragon-patterned hair ornament on his head, holding a soft pillow with both hands, and holding a jade plaque in his hand to look at it carefully. If you just look at his expression, he does look like an ancestor on the mountain with a frowning face. Yanhong, you can't see anything strange at all, this city is really amazing.
Cui Yingying was wearing a light green flower t-shirt, lying side by side in front of her, with her cheeks on her lotus arms, tilting her head to look at Yutang. Although she pretended to be calm, her face was frighteningly red, and she wanted to look back but didn't dare. appearance.
Sizzling...
There was a shameful sound in her ears. Cui Yingying's eyes became weirder and her feet arched. She was afraid that Zuo Lingquan would be considerate and take care of her instead, so she had nothing to say and said:
"Yutang, are you too skinny to feel anything?"
When Zuo Lingquan heard this, he couldn't help but feel funny. Yutang looked calm and calm on the surface, but in fact his body was very tight. If he went a little too far, he secretly tapped his back with his heel. There was no reaction, and he was afraid that It's nothing more than exposing the little daughter in front of Sister Yingying.
Seeing Sister Yingying lying in front of her, her two calves wrapped in black stockings were bent up and swaying gently beside her. Her appearance was charming and mature, but also playful. The wonderland of Taoyuan was looming between her legs. Zuo Lingquan felt a little left out of Yingying. Sister, just reach out your hand...
!
Cui Yingying's body stiffened. She originally wanted to close her eyes and pretend to rest, but she was afraid that she would be embarrassed by moaning later, so she used her feet to hook Zuo Lingquan's hand away, causing trouble to the east:
"By the way, Ling Quan, didn't you take out the tail last time?"
? ?
Shangguan Yutang was already having a hard time enduring it. When he heard these words, he was immediately annoyed and turned his cheek with a slightly fierce look in his eyes:
"Are you sick?"
Cui Yingying was stunned and looked at Yutang with some suspicion:
"Do you know what it means?"
Boom——
Zuo Lingquan was glancing randomly when he was kicked by his heel. He quickly looked away and pretended that he didn't hear anything.
Shangguan Yutang seemed calm, but Zuo Lingquan's face felt like it was on fire as he looked around at that shameful place...
She had seen Jiang Yi wearing a tail and pretending to be a fox before. Naturally, she knew what it meant, but she couldn't explain it clearly. In order to cover up the slip of the tongue, she frowned and said:
"Cultivation is cultivation. Can you stop talking about irrelevant matters? Do you think this is just playing house?"
Yutang took on a business-like attitude, and Cui Yingying naturally felt a little bit wrong. She pursed her lips and said:
"Didn't I see that you didn't respond, so I wanted to help you out..."
"Ling Quan, she is very bored, help her to cheer up."
"Okay..."
"Hey!"
Cui Yingying quickly turned over, facing the enemy, and said nervously:
"Zuo Lingquan! You...you promised to treat everyone equally. If you only listen to her and not mine, I will leave now..."
"Get out of here quickly."
"Hey?!" Cui Yingying's eyes were filled with anger: "If you say so, I still won't leave..."
"Okay, okay, I will listen to what you say..."
…
The time of practice is joyful, but it is also really grinding. ♦♕ ♦ඏ
After all, Shangguan Yutang has just started practicing martial arts. No matter how powerful his body is, his body is still experiencing the wind and rain. After practicing for several months, he is afraid that it will be damaged.
Seeing that the feeling of confusion and confusion could no longer be suppressed, Shangguan Yutang twisted his waist slightly:
"Ling Quan, you have practiced for two rounds. Take a rest and balance work with rest."
Zuo Lingquan and the two powerful elder sisters are the ones who benefit completely from their cultivation. Wherever they feel tired, they will only become more energetic as they practice. He smiled and said:
"I'm not tired..."
Shangguan Yutang tilted his head, revealing a cold and majestic side face:
"I think you are tired!"
?
Zuo Lingquan understood the meaning - Tangtang was about to stick out his tongue - he could only nod with lingering meaning: "Well, I think I'm a little tired..." He slowly stopped working and calmed down, leaning forward between the two ancestors. Eyes indicate.
Cui Yingying was actually still queuing up, but Yutang asked her to leave. She couldn't just say "I'll do it, I'll do it", so she looked tired and smacked Zuo Lingquan in the face.
Shangguan Yutang didn't want to show his active side in front of Cui Yingying. He stared at the jade plaque and made no move, but he didn't refuse either.
Zuo Lingquan was afraid that the bowl of water would not be leveled and would make Sister Yingying angry again, so he could only give Sister Yingying a sip in return and then give her a sip before he got up and put on his robes with satisfaction.
After a while...
Cui Yingying was still treating the injury on Yutang's back. Zuo Lingquan wanted to watch from the side, but neither of them wanted him to listen to their private conversations, so he could only go out for a walk alone.
When the door is closed, the whole world returns to silence. The night breeze outside the hall blows on the face, bringing people back to reality from a gentle place.
Zuo Lingquan stood in front of the door and took a breath. His feet were still floating, and he felt as if he had had a big dream.
After calming down for a moment and suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Zuo Lingquan tidied his clothes and made sure there were no lipstick marks left on his body before walking out of the hall.
In the small courtyard outside the hall, exotic flowers and plants exude a faint fragrance under the moonlight.
The stocky girl wearing straw sandals was lying on the roof with her head in her arms, her legs crossed, and she was talking with gusto:
"Back in the north, Benlong and Tangtang went to Lookout Moon City, also called Wolf City. Tangtang pretended to be Benlong's sister, a python demon, and ran to poach King Peng's eggs... By the way, little stupid bird, you know how? Lay eggs?"
"grumble?"
The furry dumpling squatted on the eaves, with a small dried fish box in front of him. Hearing this, he spread his wings and explained in a gu-gu-jiji-Niaoniao is the phoenix god. He was born from the fire. He has a heavenly father and an earthly mother. He is not like you lower-level snakes. Same.
The little female dragon really understood the meaning of Tuanzi, and her eyes were full of disgust:
"You can't even lay eggs, so what's the use. Back then, the Peng Hunter King did all kinds of evil and wanted to eat this dragon. This dragon and Tangtang ran directly to the nest and shook all the eggs away for him. He was so angry that he chased and killed him. He killed us for thousands of miles, and later Tangtang wanted to take revenge, but unfortunately he was killed by Meimei..."
…
Under the eaves, Zuo Lingquan had just gotten off Yutang's back. Hearing such wild past events, he was naturally very interested and wanted to lean against the door and listen.
But it was a pity that before Zuo Lingquan could hold up his arms, he noticed a ghostly figure in white clothes appearing outside the courtyard door. He had a somewhat demonic smile on his face and raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he did not speak, his meaning was It is written clearly between the eyes:
Mr. Zuo, after the two people in the room have finished serving, is it time for Jin Shui to take his turn?
? !
The eyes of this alien witch seducing the righteous knights are quite lethal.
Although Zuo Lingquan was lustful, he still had his composure. His silly expression condensed, and he coughed slightly, wanting to go back to the hall and sit down, lest his two wives, who had not yet hugged each other, get mad.
Mei Jinshui saw this scene and shrugged slightly:
"Master Zuo, the demon hasn't been sealed yet. You guys are flirting with me in the house. Isn't it inappropriate for me, a foreign witch, to build the demon-suppressing tower and defend the peace of Jiuzhou by myself?"
Zuo Lingquan paused and thought for a moment, he really felt that it was inappropriate - he bullied his master and destroyed his ancestors in the house, and let Mei Jinshui conquer demons and suppress them outside. This scene looked like he was evil, Mei Jinshui It doesn’t matter if it’s the right path.
Zuo Lingquan thought about it for a moment, then walked out of the courtyard with a lukewarm expression:
"Yutang is injured. Sister Yingying is treating her injuries. It is really helpless for Mei Xianjun to suppress the demon alone. I don't know how to seal the formation, but if there is anyone who can help, Mei Xianjun just ask. ”
"Without you, I can't restore my Qi Sea. You can't let me do it with my bare hands, right?"
Zuo Lingquan just remembered this. Mei Jinshui's injury has not recovered, and the consumption is relatively large. Now I am afraid that there is not much Qi Hai left.
Yutang couldn't go to the ground, and Mei Jinshui had to do the work of building the demon-suppressing tower alone, so he still had to help mend the demons.
However, as a converter, he can be used as a 'plug-in' around Yutang and Yingying, while Mei Jinshui can only be used as a pendant here.
"I was negligent. Lord Mei Xian can perform spells now. Zuo will help you restore your Qi sea."
Mei Jinshui smiled, turned around and walked towards the Demon Suppressing Tower that had just been laid. Her long skirt was like ripples in the water as she walked. The moonlight shone on her side face, and her demeanor could be described as graceful and graceful.
No matter how horny Zuo Lingquan is, he can't stare at Mei Jinshui's butt. He looked at the Demon Suppressing Tower:
"How long will it take to build this tower?"
"If it's quick, it will take more than a month."
Mei Jinshui came to the foundation paved with formation stones, took out two futons, and sat down on them.
To be honest, Zuo Lingquan didn't dare to be alone with Mei Jinshui. It wasn't because he was afraid of the bad old lady's lust, but because Mei Jinshui's contagious power was really strong. The longer the contact lasted, the harder it would be to become hostile. may be influenced by it.
But Yutang and Yingying were nearby, and Zuo Lingquan had to be magnanimous. He sat upright on the futon opposite and started to run his exercises with a serious expression.
Two people in white clothes were sitting cross-legged on a thousand-mile scorched plain, with a silver moon above their heads. They were neither enemies nor friends. The scene actually had a poignant and romantic feeling like sadomasochism in the wasteland.
Mei Jinshui raised his eyes and looked at the moonlight. He may have realized this completely different artistic conception. Instead of doing any exercises, he smiled and said:
"The moonlight is very pleasant. Mr. Zuo, can you compose an impromptu poem to add some color to this place?"
"Mei Xianjun, to be honest, I only know how to practice swordsmanship, but I don't know much about poetry. I only wrote down those beautiful lines that I saw occasionally before."
"Poetry lies in lyricism. It doesn't matter who wrote it. The value of this poem is that you can recall such a poem that empathizes with you at a certain moment. Can Mr. Zuo remember it at this time?"
Zuo Lingquan saw that Mei Jinshui loved poetry and was obsessed with poetry. Under such hard work, he thought for a while and said:
"I haven't learned anything since I was a child, so I don't remember everything. Well... the moon is setting, crows are crying, the sky is full of frost, Jiang Feng is fishing and the fire is facing me, Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the midnight bell is ringing for the passenger ship..."
Although her back was emotionless, Mei Jinshui's eyes still brightened. She changed to a kneeling posture, placed a long table between the two of them, placed the guqin 'Haiyue Qinghui' on the table, and then Two wine glasses were taken out.
Zuo Lingquan blinked: "Mei Xianjun, we are practicing."
"It's just for refining qi, don't delay the business."
Mei Jinshui sat upright with an elegant posture. She did not look like a mountain immortal. Instead, she had the aura of a young lady from a scholarly family. Her action of covering her sleeves and pouring wine was a bit like that of a courtesan who brought disaster to the country and the people. Anyway, few men dared to stare at her.
Zuo Lingquan was naturally very calm, but "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall". He did not look directly at Mei Jinshui's appearance, but just kept the preparatory action of refining qi.
After Mei Jinshui poured two glasses of wine, he asked curiously:
"The talented man who wrote this poem must have been in a very miserable situation. What happened later?"
"I think he became an official. I don't remember clearly."
"Where is Gusu City? It sounds like the scenery is far better than Meishan."
"Time has changed. It should no longer exist in this world."
"That's a pity. There is this poem but no place. I don't know how many literati and poets will regret it. Let's change Xiangyang City to Gusu City in the future. Consider it a name for me..."
? !
What the hell?
Zuo Lingquan was stunned. Xiangyang City was the overlord of Dongzhou three thousand years ago and one of the four immortal alliances of the magic path in the past three thousand years. Changing the name of the sect is tantamount to changing the history of the inheritance of Jiuzhou. Isn't this a joke?
"Mei Xianjun, the inheritance of the sect is not a joke, you..."
"I built Xiangyang City. As long as it is pleasing to the ear, I can call it whatever I want."
"Uh..."
Zuo Lingquan blinked: "Then if you hear 'I left Baidi in the morning and returned to Jiangling in one day', don't you suggest Shang Lao Mo to change 'Tiandi City' to 'Baidi City'?"
Mei Jinshui thought about it seriously and nodded slightly:
"Not bad, not bad, Tiandi City is too arrogant and ostentatious, changing it to Baidi is more A bit heavy..."
"..."
Zuo Lingquan had nothing to say, and spread his hands slightly: "I just hope that Mei Xianjun is joking, otherwise the aliens will quarrel because of my words, and I will be famous in Jiuzhou again. "
"Hehe... Qianxing Island sounds like a small sect. The ancestor of Minghe has long wanted to change its name. He originally wanted to call it "Tongming Sect", but it was rejected by his disciples because it was too ugly. Do you have any ideas? "
"The spring river tide is connected to the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea rises with the tide. Hmm... Change it to "Mingjiao". "
?"
"This... Can the preface match the postscript?" Mei Jinshui pondered and savored it: "According to the artistic conception of this sentence, it is more appropriate to call it "Worship Moon Sect" than "Mingjiao". The ancestor of Minghe changed his name to Worship Moon Sect Leader, and his momentum is also much stronger..."
Zuo Lingquan couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly sat up straight and kept serious.
Mei Jinshui seemed to be far more interested in these than the battle between immortals and demons. He casually played a piece of music and continued to ask with great interest:
"What about Yingyang Palace?"
"The sun rises in the east, and I am the only one who is invincible. It was renamed 'Sun and Moon Divine Sect', and the leader happened to be called Dongfang Bubai..."
"Oh~ That's over. Yingyang Palace only has the sun, not the moon, so it doesn't deserve the words 'sun and moon'. Dongfang Zhuzhao is also a sorcerer. If he is given the title of 'Dongfang Bubai', the two martial arts immortals in Huajunzhou will slam their desks. Well... If I return to Dongzhou in the future, I can change my name to 'Dongfang Bubai'..."
"Uh... As long as Mei Xianjun is happy. Tiezhu Mansion has flower names, I can also be called 'Linghu Chongfeng'..."
"This name is good, and it is in line with the style of Tiezhu Mansion. It must be to Yutang's taste..."
...
Under the moonlight, the two people, also dressed in white like snow, sat opposite each other on the wasteland, accompanied by the faint music of the piano and poems, gradually forgetting the past, leaving only laughter and joy.
In the courtyard in the distance, two peerless beauties with a very cute height difference were lying on the bed, holding their faces with their hands to listen, and their eyes showed a little coldness.
Chatting with the evil witch, I forgot about paying public grain. If I don’t lick the steamed buns swollen this time, I’m afraid I can’t get on the kang...
-----
On the other side, Juejian Cliff.
The moon is on the branches, below Juejian Cliff, in the fairy family courtyard for distinguished guests.
Wu Qingwan sat on the beauty in the corridor, holding the secret book of martial arts that Guagua got from the old sword god, and carefully pondered the way of martial arts.
Lingye was communicating with Tiezhu Mansion about the affairs of the sect, and Jiang Yi was helping him. Miss Qiu was the granddaughter of Juejian Cliff and did not live here.
In a wing room in the backyard, the window was open, and the moonlight of the lotus pond was outside the window.
On the tea couch by the window, the little dragon turtle was lying on the table, basking in the white moonlight in the middle of the night.
Xie Qiutao, wearing a jacket and skirt, was lying on her side with a colorful painted pipa in her arms, and a soft pillow shaped like a dumpling under her cheek. She had already fallen asleep.
People who practice cultivation can stay awake all the time, but this time I ran too long to Kuibingzhou, and I was nervous all the way. I finally arrived at a safe area, and my body and mind were completely relaxed. Nothing happened, so I fell asleep unknowingly.
Xie Qiutao's face was red, her eyelashes moved slightly, and she pursed her lips in her sleep. Although she didn't make a sound, judging by her mouth shape, she should be mumbling: "Mr. Zuo, you are so bad..." and so on. Her legs were still entangled and rubbed gently.
In the dream, Xie Qiutao was lying on a huge soft bed, and Jiang Yi, Qingwan, Jingyan, Lingye, Guagua, Sister Yingying, Laozu, Lengzhu...
With so many people, it would definitely take some time for the cold and extraordinary Mr. Zuo to kiss them one by one.
Xie Qiutou found herself lying obediently, and Master Zuo in the distance kissed everyone from left to right; when it was almost her turn, he kissed everyone back, and then kissed her again...
This cycle repeated, and it was never her turn!
Qiutou was shy at first, then confused, and finally anxious and angry.
Just when Qiu Tao wanted to change seats with Sister Gua Gua beside her, she suddenly heard a "clang--" sound of a pipa.
Then the whole world collapsed in front of her eyes and turned into a complex of buildings.
The uneven complex of buildings was built by the sea. In the center was a huge turtle and snake statue. There was also a large platform by the sea, and people could vaguely see people worshiping on it.
Xie Qiu Tao was a little confused. After walking around the sea for a few times, she recognized what this place was from the huge sea-worshiping platform - Xuanwutai.
The current Xuanwutai has long been abandoned. Everything that should be sold has been sold. The remaining houses have also been completely turned into barren mountains and wilderness after thousands of years of destruction. The old house where she lived in her childhood was between the mountains and wilderness. She only remembered that there was such a large platform by the sea, where her parents had told her about the glorious days of the Xie family in ancient times.
Looking at the splendor of the building, this is definitely the most prosperous time of Xuanwutai.
Xie Qiutao was like a ghost who had traveled through time and returned to the ancient times. She slowly floated over the endless buildings and landed in front of the Xuanwu statue in the center. It can be seen that Xuanwu's eyes were bright and he was also looking at her.
Xie Qiutao stood in front of the huge statue and raised her hand to wave it as a greeting.
"Buzz..."
With a low hum, the Xuanwu statue turned into a living thing in front of her eyes, and the big snake wrapped around its back looked towards somewhere in the north.
The world in the north quickly drew closer in front of her, passing through mountains and rivers, and came to the snow-capped northern border land. It can be seen that there is a huge lake between the glaciers.
At the bottom of the lake is a hall buried in mud and sand, with the emblem of Xuanwutai, and it seems that something is sealed inside.
Xie Qiutao's eyes lit up, thinking that this might be the family property left by her ancestors. She wanted to get closer to see what good things were placed inside, but the dream was directly dispersed and she woke up.
"Eh?!"
Xie Qiutao turned over from the tea couch, looked around, and then looked at the pipa in her arms. The gorgeous patterns on the pipa were faintly shining, gradually dissipating, until it returned to tranquility, as if nothing had happened just now.
Xie Qiutao frowned, thinking that what she saw in the dream just now must be the ancestral pipa that had just awakened to guide her intentionally. She thought about it and lay down and continued to sleep.
Result...
Soon, Xie Qiutao fell asleep and lay on the huge bed again.
Mr. Zuo was relieved and said with a smile:
"Taotao, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Then he continued to kiss from Jiang Yi to Gua Gua, and from Gua Gua to Jiang Yi, but he didn't kiss her!
Hey? !
Xie Qiutao woke up from her dream, turned over, and her big eyes were angry and speechless:
"Puh, puh, puh--what a broken dream, and it's continuous... Are you sick? I'm so angry..."
