Chapter 90 Chapter 90 A song of phoenix seeking phoenix.
Sword Sect.
The young master has been away for a long time and finally returns to the clan today.
Gu Jingyun has a very high reputation in the Sword Sect.
He is gentle and polite to others, has a good personality, is young and handsome, has money and power, and has a high level of cultivation. There is nothing wrong with him no matter how you look at him. He is the dream lover of many male and female cultivators.
But most people don't have any hope of "taking down Gu Jingyun".
Young Master Gu is a ruthless man who can remain in seclusion in the desolate and cold Wunian Peak for more than ten years.
Wunian Peak is the place where the famous swordsman Jiang Qingsui, who ascended to the ruthless way, once practiced. It is very likely that Gu Jingyun also practiced the ruthless way.
Even though everyone knows this, it does not hinder their enthusiasm for him.
Upon hearing that the young master had returned, a group of people spontaneously came together, standing guard at the mountain gate, eagerly waiting.
Because of the sect competition, representatives from various sects came to the Sword Sect one after another. Now, those guarding the mountain pass include not only the disciples of the sect, but also cultivators from other sects.
There were a lot of people, and it was a grand and lively event.
Some people stopped because they were attracted by him simply by passing by, some came to greet him because they truly admired Gu Jingyun, and some wanted to take the opportunity to see the handsome face of his idol and feast their eyes.
They waited and waited, but not only did they not see the young master, they didn't even see a single Heavenly Wolf Guard coming to report the news.
Just when he was doubting the accuracy of the news, he heard several sounds of swords breaking through the wind coming from the sect.
When everyone looked closely, they saw that they were several respected elders of the Sword Sect.
Everyone was cheered up.
With such a big ceremony and such great importance, it is obvious that the young master is indeed going back to the sect today!
A brave disciple approached the Sword Sect's Great Elder and asked flatteringly:
"Elder Ling, may I ask when the young master will arrive?"
Ling Dai: "...You all came to see the young master?"
Everyone nodded in unison: "Yes, yes."
Ling Dai felt something was wrong.
These people didn't know that Ling Hanzhang had revealed the inside story to him.
——The young master did not return alone, but came back with his sweetheart!
I hope this scene won’t scare people away.
You can’t do that!
Who wants to be treated like a monkey?
Ling Dai's face darkened and he scolded:
"Don't you have classes and sword practice? Don't you have any missions to do? Instead of doing serious work, you're fooling around here. How disrespectful!"
"If you don't leave within half an incense stick, go to the Cliff of Repentance and practice meditation for a while!"
All the disciples were scolded and looked listless and frightened.
The elders were always strict and never changed their words. The Sword Sect disciples all backed off, either apologizing before leaving or hiding in the crowd and quietly leaving.
The number of onlookers suddenly dropped sharply.
Ling Dai paused and said, "Friends from other sects, please go away as well."
The tone was slightly slower, but still carried an unquestionable tone.
The host has said so, everyone is here to be a guest, not to make enemies.
The disciples bowed helplessly and said:
"Excuse me."
"We will take our leave now. Elder Ling, please forgive me."
Ling Dai nodded.
Pang Yunhu and another Hehuan Sect disciple, Cao Fu, mixed in the crowd and were unable to see the excitement, so they both sighed in disappointment.
"Let's go too." Cao Fu looked hesitant. "Now that Young Master Gu has returned from his travels, all the sects have also arrived... Why hasn't Senior Brother Jiang come yet?"
"I don't know." Pang Yunhu scratched his face, a little worried: "Could it be that something happened on the way and he was delayed?"
"We have to inform the sect." Cao Fu said.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Pang Yunhu replied.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the bustling mountain pass finally returned to silence.
The second elder said tactfully, "Brother, if we hadn't come to greet you, the young master wouldn't have had to make this trip out of courtesy. He could have just flown back to Bixiao Courtyard on his sword at the foot of the mountain."
He will never come to the mountain gate.
Those people waited in vain.
Several other elders also echoed this, with puzzled expressions.
Young master, just go back to the sect.
He wasn't the kind of person who liked pomp and circumstance, so there was really no need for him to come specially to greet him.
Ling Dai and Gu Jingyun had an agreement - before the young master made it public, he could not tell anyone that he had a lover.
Ling Dai was distressed by this and couldn't tell the truth.
He said vaguely, "You will understand when you meet the people later. Be smart and don't embarrass the young master and the Sword Sect! And don't be rude to others, understand."
Everyone looked at each other: "So serious?" "Okay then..."
Ling Dai stroked his long beard and paced back and forth anxiously.
"Why haven't you come yet..."
The fourth elder had sharp eyes and immediately caught a glimpse of the carriages approaching in the distance.
"Brother! People are coming!"
The carriage slowly stopped. The Sirius Guards in black armor looked solemn as they guarded on both sides, silently and murderously.
Ling Dai quickly put his clothes in order and put his hands behind his back.
The old man has white hair and a long beard, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and his expression is mysterious, making him look like a hermit.
Fourth Elder: "...Brother, what are you doing?"
Ling Dai: "Shut up! I'm trying to act like an elder!"
The elders: “???”
So what?
How could the young master not know who you are?
Could he bring back a wife?
The elders turned their eyes and saw the young master lift the curtain of the carriage and jump out.
The man glanced over here and his eyes fell on Ling Dai who was pretending to be a master. He seemed to understand something immediately, and his expression was indescribable.
Just when everyone thought he was about to walk over quickly, Gu Jingyun was the first to retract his gaze and extended his hand back.
Elders:?
The curtain was lifted for the second time.
A tall, thin, handsome young man bent over slightly and leaned out from behind the curtain. He took Gu Jingyun's hand and jumped off the carriage swiftly.
One of them was wearing a dark brocade robe, and the other a white brocade robe. The man lowered his head, and the young man looked up. They huddled together and whispered as if no one was around.
Elders: ? ?
What’s going on!
Who is that? !
Gu Jingyun pointed to a place not far away, and the young man looked in the direction the man was pointing.
The young man had an excessively handsome face, his eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, and his temperament was as cold and pure as jade.
His eyes seemed to be able to speak, clear and bright. When others saw these eyes, they had a 50% favorable impression of him.
Elders: ???
What a handsome man... No, what's wrong with you!
Gu Jingyun and Jiang Yan walked side by side.
The man was carrying the Sword of Self-Search on his back, and the young man was holding the Sword of Demon-Breaking, both of which were wrapped in scabbards of the same style but different colors.
Two peace knots woven from two red ropes are hung on the hilts of the two swords.
As you walk, the red rope swings and the tassels sway gently.
The dumbfounded elders: “…………”
It was just a casual remark, but he really brought people back?
They also wear couple outfits, use couple scabbards, and hang couple sword tassels!
The elders' eyes became more and more heated.
Got it.
No wonder the Great Elder mobilized such a large force.
The young master is bringing his sweetheart home, so as their elders, how can they not come?
...If that's the case, the Great Elder should be prepared.
The elders glanced at Ling Dai quietly.
Sure enough, Ling Dai was holding a red Qiankun bag in his hands behind his back.
The elders were furious.
Bastard!
I deliberately didn't inform them in advance and secretly prepared the gift for the meeting!
The elders present were all wealthy and carried many treasures with them, so they had no worries about the gift for the meeting.
But can a gift given at the last minute be the same as one prepared long ago?
The Great Elder is too cunning!
The elders' brains began to work frantically, thinking about what to give to the future wife of the Sword Sect's young master.
When Jiang Yan heard that these were all elders, he didn't have any thoughts at first.
Now that I had come closer, I saw that they all had stern faces and serious expressions, and I felt a little confused.
what happens?
Why do they all look like they are facing a great enemy?
The two men stopped.
Gu Jingyun bowed and said, "My dear elders, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you all well?"
Without waiting for a reply, he said calmly, "Thank you for welcoming me personally, Jing Yun feels ashamed. If there is a next time, please stay in the hall and wait for me to greet you."
Don't come next time.
His liveliness is very pretty, isn't it?
"Then you don't understand. This time is different from the past..."
Ling Dai said in an unfathomable way: "Young Master, has your wish come true when you were traveling?"
"...almost there." Gu Jingyun said slowly.
Ling Dai almost couldn't hold it in, his eyes widened: "Are you sure it's almost done? It's already been done? Don't lie to me!"
Gu Jingyun: "I didn't lie to you."
Ling Dai's expression suddenly fell.
He used his eyes to accuse me in a subtle way: [What's wrong with you? You're so useless.]
Gu Jingyun: "..."
The Second Elder pushed Ling Dai aside, ignoring Gu Jingyun, and greeted Jiang Yan warmly, "Young Master, you are extremely handsome. What's your name? Where are you from? Who is your master?"
When Gu Jingyun heard this, he felt it sounded very familiar.
Think about it again.
Isn’t this what Ling Dai asked him at the beginning!
Jiang Yan had no idea what other people were thinking, so when he saw his elder asking him a question, he quickly greeted him respectfully.
First, under Gu Jingyun's suggestion, he called everyone one by one.
Then, the young man said obediently: "Junior Jiang Yan, from Xizhou, is the direct disciple of Hehuan Zhenren of Hehuan Sect. Nice to meet you, elders."
Ling Dai raised his eyes in disbelief and glared at Gu Jingyun.
[You said your sweetheart was learning secret techniques from a famous teacher in Xizhou. It turns out that he was learning from Master He Huan, and he was learning the secret technique of dual cultivation!!]
Gu Jingyun coughed lightly and pretended not to see it.
The second elder's smile faded and he trembled: "Hehe Hehuan Sect..."
He turned his head reflexively.
really.
The fourth elder was shocked and blurted out: "You are Ren Ling's nephew? That makes him my nephew!!"
Without thinking, he asked, "How is Ren Ling doing now? Is he still single? Do you want to develop a twilight romance?"
Ren Ling is the name of the leader of the Hehuan Sect.
Jiang Yan said in embarrassment: "I don't dare to ask about the master's private life. Sorry."
The fourth elder was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up and said, "It's okay. I have collected many items over the past few hundred years, all of which he likes. Can you bring them to him when you return to the sect?"
Jiang Yan: “…Okay.”
The fourth elder said with regret: "Alas, if my eldest brother had not confiscated my flying boat magic weapon, I would be able to travel thousands of miles a day and personally go to the Hehuan Sect to deliver the gift."
The third elder closed his eyes: "."
Fourth brother, don’t lick me too much.
You have been a bootlicker for hundreds of years, no wonder people don't want you.
Jiang Yan frowned.
What a familiar flying boat, traveling thousands of miles a day. It sounds like the same one his brother used when he came to see him before.
Isn’t it such a coincidence?
Gu Jingyun interrupted the greetings which were becoming increasingly outrageous.
"Ayan and I have been traveling a long way and are very tired, so we are going back to rest first."
Jiang Yan followed the man obediently.
Ling Dai suddenly came to his senses and hurried forward to stop him.
"Wait! Young friend Jiang Yan!" Ling Dai stuffed a red brocade bag into Jiang Yan's hand, "This is a little gift for meeting you."
Jiang Yan was shocked: "How can this be done?"
"Of course, of course!" Ling Dai said, "Since you call me Great Elder, you should accept this gift!"
The other elders woke up as if from a dream and began to empty their wallets.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot."
"There's also my share! Junior Brother, take it quickly."
"This is my gift to you. Live a good life in the future."
Jiang Yan:?
ah?
Are all the elders of the Sword Sect so hospitable?
“First Elder”, “Second Elder”… Is there anything special about these titles?
What are the instructions for living a good life?
Jiang Yan was confused and at a loss as to what to do.
He subconsciously looked at the man next to him for help.
Gu Jingyun smiled and whispered, "Just accept it."
Jiang Yan blinked: "...Okay then."
He took out a few jade bottles as big as vases.
"This is the elixir I made. Taking one while meditating will help you gain enlightenment. Please accept it."
The four elders held the "vase", puzzled but simply happy: "Good boy, we accept it."
Jiang Yan and Gu Jingyun left in a grand manner with a group of guards.
After watching them walk away, the four elders finally had the time to see what kind of medicine was sold in the vase.
Uncork the bottle and pour out one pill.
"...Why does it taste a bit like sesame mochi?" Ling Dai wondered.
Second Elder: "It smells strange."
The third elder nodded in agreement.
The fourth elder said, "I don't know if Ren Ling likes it or not, I'll leave it for him."
The other three: “…………Just shut up!”
**
Sword Sect, Bixiao Academy.
Gu Jingyun's house is very large. In addition to a huge martial arts training ground, there is also a large bamboo forest.
Jiang Yan always felt that the layout here was familiar.
He was led around for a while, and then suddenly he understood.
Except for the lack of medicinal fields and a larger area, the rest of the layout is exactly the same as his courtyard in the Hehuan Sect!
"Are you tired?" Gu Jingyun asked with concern.
Jiang Yan shook his head and asked, "Why are the elders so enthusiastic about me?"
Gu Jingyun: "Because they like you."
"Oh." Jiang Yan said, "I thought they were all my uncle's ex-boyfriends."
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Jiang Yan asked again: "Then what do they mean when they tell me to 'live a good life'? Are they worried that I will slack off in my cultivation and not be active in practicing sword?"
Gu Jingyun: “…………”
Jiang Yan poked him: "Why don't you say anything?"
Gu Jingyun sighed deeply and smiled helplessly: "That's not the case. They hope that you and I can get along well, don't quarrel, and don't separate. They also hope that--"
Jiang Yan waited patiently for Gu Jingyun's next sentence.
Unexpectedly, the man got stuck there and was reluctant to say the second half of the sentence.
"Anything else? Tell me quickly." Jiang Yan urged.
"No need to tell." Gu Jingyun said with a smile, "There is another meaning. You can experience it yourself."
Jiang Yan deliberately stepped on his foot and whispered, "Brother is always so mysterious!"
Gu Jingyun pretended to be angry.
The two men drew their swords at the same time and exchanged several moves in an instant.
No spiritual power was used, and no real effort was made.
In the eyes of the guards, it looked more like flirting than a fight after being angry and embarrassed.
Alas, this is what it’s like to be a young master’s bodyguard.
The dog food is always sufficient.
As the two swords crossed, the tassels of the two swords accidentally got entangled together.
Jiang Yan exclaimed and stopped his childish fight.
The two men squatted in the middle of the yard and untied the sword tassels. They were very careful in their movements, fearing that the peace knot would be damaged in the slightest.
"When can I go meet your parents?" Jiang Yan asked.
"It will take a few days for Master Bo to arrive in Dongzhou. Wait for him." Gu Jingyun said.
"Don't open the ice coffin, just see him once." Jiang Yan said.
Gu Jingyun was a little surprised.
Jiang Yan asked quietly, "Didn't my brother say that he would take me to meet your parents? Why did you change your mind?"
"No regrets, we will go tomorrow." Gu Jingyun's eyes were gentle.
"It's not dark yet." Jiang Yan said.
"I want... to take you to another place first." Gu Jingyun said.
"Okay." Jiang Yan had no objection.
Gu Jingyun used his fingers to straighten the tassels of the peace knot and secretly glanced at Jiang Yan's flawless profile, which was as white as jade.
He said silently in his heart:
——I also hope that we can love each other and grow old together.
**
Afternoon.
Gu Jingyun took Jiang Yan to the back mountain of the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect's back mountain is huge, and some areas are left to develop naturally without much interference. Some areas are more valuable because of their abundant spiritual energy, so they are divided artificially and given to people who have made contributions to the Sword Sect, and different things are planted there.
There are medicinal fields and flower fields.
Gu Jingyun naturally owns a large area where he grows flowers. He has all kinds of flowers, not sticking to the variety, he only cares whether they look good together.
There is also a pool of magical spring water there, which warms the surrounding flowers and keeps them blooming all year round. Butterflies linger and flutter around, and the fragrance is fragrant.
This place is indeed more beautiful than the flower fields in the valley.
Jiang Yan was surrounded by a sea of flowers. When he looked down, he could see the blossoming flower buds, and when he looked up, he could see the clear blue sky.
"Ayan."
He heard a gentle call.
Jiang Yan looked straight ahead and saw Gu Jingyun with a gentle smile in his eyes.
Jiang Yan's heart suddenly started beating wildly.
Gu Jingyun sat down in the middle of the sea of flowers with the Jiuxiaoqin on his knees.
The man called softly, "Ayan, come here."
Jiang Yan strolled over, his hand reaching for the jade flute hanging around his waist.
"Do you want to play together?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Jingyun rejected him.
"Today, I would like to invite you to listen to me play a piece of music."
Jiang Yan was puzzled: "Do I just need to listen?"
Gu Jingyun smiled and nodded.
Jiang Yan put away the jade flute, sat down on the grass, supported his face with his hands, and deliberately made an expression that said "I'm ready".
Gu Jingyun thought he was so cute.
The man coughed lightly to ease the tension in his heart.
"Ayan, listen carefully to the meaning of my song."
"Okay." Jiang Yan straightened his expression.
Gu Jingyun's fingers stroked gently and his fingertips plucked the strings.
The sound of the Jiuxiaoqin is relatively heavy, adding several different colors to this song.
It's like a man who has seen all kinds of prosperity in the world, searched all over the world, and finally found his destined person. He uses the melodious sound of the piano to express all his feelings and love to his sweetheart.
The weather is fine and the sea of flowers is romantic.
Gu Jingyun had a gentle expression as he played a song "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix" for Jiang Yan, using the song to express his feelings in an euphemistic way.
The wind lifted Jiang Yan's hair and clothes.
Jiang Yan stared blankly at Gu Jingyun who was playing the piano.
He couldn't understand the music.
I just think that Gu Jingyun is a bit handsome when he is concentrating on playing the piano, and his playing is really beautiful.
When the last note fell, Gu Jingyun raised his eyes nervously.
At first glance, he was full of confidence and felt that this was a sure thing.
The young man was looking at him blankly, with thousands of emotions in his eyes waiting to be expressed.
Gu Jingyun said tenderly with full of tenderness: "Ayan, this song is called - "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix". Do you... do you know what I mean?"
Jiang Yan said, "Hmm?"
Gu Jingyun knows Jiang Yan so well.
After hearing this, Gu Jingyun's heart suddenly became nervous. He felt that there was no hope today.
As expected, Jiang Yan asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Gu Jingyun: "…………Ayan, the piece I played is Feng Qiu Huang."
Jiang Yan acted like a foreign mixed-race kid who couldn’t understand Chinese poetry.
"Oh." Jiang Yan praised: "The name is very poetic."
Jiang Yan thought, what's wrong with Feng Qiu Huang? He and Gu Jingyun are not phoenixes, they are humans and elves.
It's obvious that this name has nothing to do with them.
Gu Jingyun closed his eyes tightly, with a hint of death on his face.
It's like playing the lute to a cow.
He actually expected a person who had practiced the flute for more than ten years but still couldn't play the five notes correctly and had no sense of it to be able to give reading comprehension of an unfamiliar song!
How dare he.
Jiang Yan's sluggish desire to survive suddenly came online.
He quickly said, "Brother, you played it beautifully! I was stunned."
If it sounds good, why is it so dull?
It proves that he didn't understand at all and was just looking at the face!
Gu Jingyun took a deep breath and comforted himself: At least you still have a face that can attract him.
Gu Jingyun put down the Jiuxiaoqin.
He no longer counted on Qin.
As the man stood up, Jiang Yan subconsciously stood up as well.
Gu Jingyun reached out to hold the young man's hand.
He held Jiang Yan tightly and adjusted his mentality.
Gu Jingyun said solemnly: "Ayan, I have something to say to you."
Jiang Yan: "Well, go ahead."
Gu Jingyun was about to say "I like you" affectionately when he suddenly realized something was wrong.
He said this.
There is no good ending.
Gu Jingyun forcibly held Jiang Yan's hand and stood there for five minutes.
He was thinking about the wording.
What words can make the wood open up?
Jiang Yan was tired of standing: "Are you going to tell me or not? If not, let's go back. The sun is very hot."
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Gu Jingyun said aggrievedly: "You really don't understand at all? Don't you understand at all?"
Jiang Yan was also puzzled: "So, what do you want me to understand?"
Gu Jingyun still said that sentence: "I said - I am attracted to you, I like you, and I want to be with you forever."
Within one second.
Jiang Yan gave the answer as expected: "Oh, I like you too."
"...Eh." He also remembered, "Did you tell me the first sentence?"
"Yes." Gu Jingyun said calmly: "And I really want to die now."
Jiang Yan's pupils trembled, and he asked nervously: "Why? If you have something to say, just talk to me nicely, don't let it get to you!"
This time it was Jiang Yan who held Gu Jingyun tightly and refused to let go.
Jiang Yan stood there and gave the man a five-minute lecture on cherishing life.
Gu Jingyun nodded honestly, as if he was listening very seriously, but in fact, it went in one ear and out the other, and he felt a little numb.
He wanted to continue, but the atmosphere was gone.
This is a failed confession.
Gu Jingyun thought sadly.
Jiang Yan spoke until his mouth was dry, and finally Gu Jingyun assured him again and again, "I don't want to die, I cherish my life very much."
He realized it belatedly. "Do you... mean something else?"
Um? ? ?
Gu Jingyun's dead heart suddenly revived.
The man's eyes lit up: "Ayan, do you understand?!"
Jiang Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Do you feel insecure?"
Um?
It seems a bit crooked, but it is not impossible to apply it to other cases.
Gu Jingyun encouraged: "Go on."
Jiang Yan said in a firm tone: "You want to become a real family with me, right?"
There's hope!
A look of joy appeared on Gu Jingyun's face.
"That's right!" Gu Jingyun said, "Please continue to deduce further!"
"I understand, wait a minute." Jiang Yan said.
Gu Jingyun waited with bated breath.
Jiang Yan took out two magic stones and gave one of them to Gu Jingyun.
"This is a blank soul contract stone. Bite your fingertips, squeeze out a drop of blood, and drip it into the magic stone. Then recite a spell with me, and you can leave a soul contract on the stone."
"The Soul Contract Stone is similar to a convenient version of the Soul Lamp. It can sense whether the other person is safe. If the magic power is strong, it can also sense the direction of the other person through the soul mark inside. This is a soul contract, and only close people can exchange it."
Jiang Yan cherished it and said, "For me, only family members can exchange spiritual stones. We exchanged with each other, swore by dripping blood, and left the mark of the soul. From now on, we are a family!"
Gu Jingyun: “…………”
Who wants to swear blood oath with you and become your brother?
Gu Jingyun: "I don't want to be your brother——"
Jiang Yan was startled, his eyes changed, and he looked vaguely hurt.
"You, you don't want to be a family with me..."
The young man pursed his lips and reached out to take the stone from Gu Jingyun's palm.
Gu Jingyun reflexively clenched the spiritual stone.
You can't let go. If you do, your wife will be gone.
Gu Jingyun's desire to survive also came online.
"I mean——!"
Gu Jingyun made an emergency public relations move: "We don't need to be sworn brothers, we are still family. I don't want to be your elder brother, because the word elder brother is too distant. I want to be your elder brother and your lover. I will be with you and never separate."
In the meantime, he also tried to change Jiang Yan's thinking.
Jiang Yan was stunned when he heard this.
What the hell.
A bit confusing.
The content in the middle seems to be cumbersome nonsense, so I'll just ignore it.
Jiang Yan only heard the beginning and the end, and tried to sort it out: "So you are willing to become a family with me."
Gu Jingyun: "I do."
Jiang Yan: "Are you willing to live with me?"
Gu Jingyun felt a little satisfied. This was no different from a confession.
He quickly replied, "I do."
That's family.
Jiang Yan was also very satisfied: "Let's swear an oath with blood."
In the sea of flowers, they exchanged their spiritual stones.
Gu Jingyun felt indescribable emotion in his heart.
He knew that it would be extremely difficult to make the wood spirit enlightened.
It's no problem, he will succeed.
That night.
Gu Jingyun intended to test Jiang Yan's musical attainments.
He had known Jiang Yan for such a long time, but he had not yet thoroughly understood Jiang Yan's musical skills. In the past, when they played together, he would always say a piece of music, and if Jiang Yan knew the score, he would play the flute along. If he had never heard of it, he would shake his head and ask him for the score.
Because it sounds so bad.
So nothing wrong has been found so far.
The night was cool and the two of them sat in the yard.
Gu Jingyun said: "Ayan, I want to practice piano recently, but I can't find anyone to comment on it. Can you help me?"
In the dark, the guards all gasped.
What's wrong with the young master that he wants to ask the immortal to comment on his piano music?
Jiang Yan didn't feel anything strange. He never refused Gu Jingyun, so he agreed calmly.
"Okay." Jiang Yan brought a cup of tea and said, "Go ahead and play. I'm listening carefully!"
The two began to play the piano and drink tea.
When Gu Jingyun plays the piano, his mind is on the mountains.
Jiang Yan commented: "A bit noisy."
When Gu Jingyun plays the piano, his mind is on flowing water.
Jiang Yan praised: "This song is hypnotic, not bad."
When Gu Jingyun played the piano, his mind was on Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan was puzzled: "It sounds nice... Hey, isn't this the song we played this afternoon? Did you play it again?"
Gu Jingyun: "..."
The case was solved, and Ayan's musical attainments were almost nothing.
Guards: “…”
I feel so sorry for the young master.
You have to hold it in and don't laugh. If you laugh, the young master will hold a grudge against you and make things difficult for you!
It's late at night.
Jiang Yan went back to his room and prepared to go to bed. Gu Jingyun volunteered to play the "hypnotic" song repeatedly outside his bedroom.
While playing the piano, the man listened to the young man's even breathing behind the screen.
He pondered secretly.
The euphemistic approach doesn't work, you have to be more straightforward.
**
The next day.
Jiang Yan brought up the matter of "meeting his parents" again and followed Gu Jingyun to the forbidden area of the Sword Sect.
A token was required to enter and exit, and Jiang Yan thought he didn't have one.
Gu Jingyun said: "Yes, I gave it to you."
Jiang Yan was slightly surprised and took out the jade token he carried with him.
The word "Yan" is engraved on the front of the jade plate, and the Jiuxiaoqin and Pomo Sword are engraved on the back.
"Isn't this the token of the Yuyuan Chamber of Commerce? Can it also be used by the Sword Sect?" Jiang Yan asked.
"Only this one will do." Gu Jingyun said, "I have already prepared it in advance."
After that, they were able to pass through. As expected, the guards at the gate of the forbidden area did not make things difficult for them and let them pass without hesitation.
Once you walk into the cave, even the slightest sound will be infinitely amplified.
Jiang Yan followed Gu Jingyun closely, lowering his voice.
"When you gave me the jade token, did you plan to bring me here in advance?"
"Who else can I bring to meet my parents besides you?" Gu Jingyun asked back.
Jiang Yan felt relieved, and for a moment, he seemed to have touched upon another layer of emotion that Gu Jingyun wanted him to experience.
In just a few breaths, the thoughts are fleeting.
Jiang Yan had just caught the tail of his thoughts when the man leading the way stopped.
"arrive."
There was a barrier like water waves at the entrance of the cave. Gu Jingyun reached his hand inside, and it was like lifting an invisible curtain, revealing a space large enough for one person to pass through.
He motioned Jiang Yan to go first.
Jiang Yan bent down and went in.
Gu Jingyun followed closely behind.
Jiang Yan saw the ice coffin placed in the center of the cave at a glance.
The entire cave is engraved with formations, which stabilize the temperature at an extremely low level, so that the ice coffin is not affected by changes in external temperature.
Jiang Yan walked forward slowly.
A middle-aged couple was sleeping in a translucent ice coffin.
They are Gu Jingyun's parents.
Jiang Yan approached the ice coffin, observing it carefully and feeling it...
for a long time.
The young man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's the same as my previous judgment. It's the curse of the undead magic."
Jiang Yan turned around, smiled at the seemingly calm man, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I am sure that the antidote I have researched can detoxify."
The taut string in my heart suddenly loosened.
Gu Jingyun's voice was hoarse: "Ayan, thank you very much."
"Brother is being polite to me again. This is not good." Jiang Yan shook his head and teased him deliberately to lighten the atmosphere.
"Yeah." Gu Jingyun responded gently, "I'll change whatever Ah Yan thinks is wrong."
Now it was Jiang Yan's turn to feel embarrassed.
The ice coffin is the center of the formation, and the closer you get to it, the colder it gets.
Jiang Yan stood next to the ice coffin for at least a quarter of an hour, and his limbs were almost stiff.
He rubbed his hands unconsciously, and the next second Gu Jingyun took his cold hands and held them tightly.
