Several people came to the guest hall, and Bai Yi followed closely behind. After learning about what had happened in the past few days, the county magistrate said with emotion: "It's rare to see you two working together. So, how is the feng shui?"
Yun Qi glanced at Bai Yi next to him. Although the other party's expression showed that he was dissatisfied with the lie, he accepted it. Unable to get over this hurdle in his heart, he simply stopped him from speaking.
Then Yunqi cleared his throat and took on the burden of recounting everything that had happened alone.
He vividly described how he and Baiyi cooperated.
It was rare for Ling Junyan to stay so quiet these days, mainly because Yun Qi's words attracted him, but the more he listened, the more his brows frowned. Then, before Yun Qi finished speaking, he slammed the table.
All of a sudden, all three of them looked at him.
At this time, Ling Junyan shouted: "That's not right!"
Yun Qi took a deep breath in an instant.
My ancestor, what on earth do you want to do?
Yunqi had an ugly expression, and Baiyi was looking at him in surprise. Even if lying was wrong, wouldn't it make him appear unkind and unjust if he was exposed like this?
He clenched his fists slightly.
Fortunately, the county magistrate did not seem to take Ling Junyan's words to heart. He looked this man up and down. Before this, he heard Yun Qi say that his apprentice was good at exorcising demons, but since he acted so unsteadily, he had to doubt his ability.
The county magistrate hesitated for a moment, then politely asked, "Oh? Then, Taoist priest, can you tell me what's wrong?"
Ling Junyan stood up excitedly, "It's not them at all!"
Yun Qi:!!!
Bai Yi: ...! ...
Yun Qi gave Ling Junyan a warning look, but he turned a blind eye. When the county magistrate turned around to look at them, Yun Qi quickly controlled his expression and tried not to reveal any flaws.
"Master Tianzheng, what's going on?"
"Hmm?" Yun Qi looked at him with a smile and replied with a stiff upper lip, "It's indeed not the two of us, it's... the three of us."
Baiyi looked at him quickly.
This is too blunt.
But that wasn't the point. The point was that the county magistrate seemed to believe it. He let out a "hmm" and then pretended to ask Ling Junyan, "Is that what your master said?"
At this time, Ling Junyan wanted to say something, but after glancing at Yun Qi, he just nodded and said nothing.
The matter was over, but the county magistrate did not have a very good impression of Ling Junyan, which Yun Qi and Bai Yi could see.
Bai Yi still considered the overall situation, so she suggested to Yun Qi: "Your younger brother may not be suitable for this kind of job. It's best to send him away."
Yun Qi said helplessly: "I want it too, but where can I send it..."
Yun Qi's voice was so low that Bai Yi couldn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"
Yun Qi shook his head, "It's okay."
Bai Yi didn't take it seriously. He continued, "He doesn't even take the county magistrate seriously now. What will happen in the future? If he meets other prominent figures and they're not as easygoing as the county magistrate, they'll be at a disadvantage. As the eldest brother, you should pay more attention to them."
Yun Qi said nonchalantly, "That depends on how prominent the person he will meet is. If he is too high, it's fine. If he is too low, it will be troublesome."
Baiyi frowned. He really couldn't understand what this person was saying anymore. How could such a thing be possible in this world? It was completely nonsensical.
Baiyi was too lazy to argue with him. If it weren't for Wangshui County, he wouldn't have cared about such trivial matters.
At this point, Ling Junyan came into the room, and the two of them tacitly stopped the previous topic.
“Big Brother!”
Ling Junyan shouted as he approached. Yun Qi smiled and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Ling Junyan did not answer immediately. Instead, he glanced to the side and said, "Mr. Baiyi is here too."
It was originally a very polite remark, but Bai Yi was stunned, because he seemed to see a chill in the eyes of this well-behaved little brother, which happened to match his cold brows, as if this was his true appearance.
This made Baiyi not know how to respond.
But when I looked again, everything was back to normal.
Did I see it wrong? Bai Yi thought to herself.
"Yes, we have something to discuss." Yun Qi explained.
Ling Junyan seemed dissatisfied with this. "Why didn't you call me to discuss things? Don't you consider me one of your own?"
Ling Junyan felt aggrieved, Yun Qi was stunned, and Bai Yi was speechless.
Yun Qi: "No, no, no... It was just a casual talk, it's not important at all."
Ling Junyan: "Well, since Big Brother has explained it, I forgive you."
After saying that, he sat on the chair next to Yunqi as if nothing had happened, fiddling with the things he had just brought back.
The corners of Yun Qi's mouth twitched, and he squinted his eyes to look up and down at Ling Junyan. Why did he feel like he was being toyed with?
Then he looked at Baiyi: What do you think?
Baiyi didn't know what to say, so she turned her eyes away and chose to ignore it.
Yun Qi sighed and turned his gaze back to Ling Junyan's hands, "What are you fiddling with?"
As soon as he asked, Ling Junyan quickly showed the item to him and said, "Give it to Big Brother."
Yun Qi was very surprised and took it curiously, "Jade token?"
There is a pattern of the Big Dipper engraved on it.
Ling Junyan said, "I originally wanted to make a "nothing" plaque, but I thought it was too monotonous, so I carved a Big Dipper. Isn't that very creative?"
Yun Qi was so focused on the jade token that he didn't notice the question in Ling Jun's words, "Well... not bad, but where did you get the jade?" Yun Qi suddenly thought of this and asked him.
Ling Junyan answered calmly, "I made it from the jade pendant I have."
“Oh…” Yun Qi nodded, and then a second later he asked, “What!?”
Yun Qi stood up and grabbed Ling Junyan's waist.
Ling Junyan was full of confusion, "Brother, what are you doing?"
Baiyi also didn't understand, "What are you doing?"
Yun Qi ignored what they said and kept saying to himself, "No, no, no, where is the thing I asked you to put away?"
Yunqi still couldn't believe that he had processed the jade pendant again.
Although Ling Junyan was confused, he still responded obediently. He raised his hand, and Yun Qi's eyes were full of hope, until the other party's finger gently tapped the Beidou Jade Plate...
It became completely dark.
Yun Qi didn't know what he was feeling at the moment. Was he angry? He didn't seem very angry. He was despairing, but it didn't seem to have anything to do with him.
Yunqi was silent. He felt that he needed to calm down, so he chose to be dazed between losing his temper and getting angry.
Ling Junyan stared at him straight. His elder brother was bending over to look for something on him just a second ago, but now he was just standing there, so close to him.
At this moment, Ling Junyan couldn't explain the emotion in his heart, he just felt that he could clearly feel his heart beating, and beating violently.
It makes people unable to help but get closer...
Ling Junyan began to move forward cautiously.
The eldest brother was still in a daze and didn't see it.
So Ling Junyan gradually became bolder, but Bai Yi who was standing beside him saw something. He was shocked and was about to warn him.
But at this moment, Yunqi suddenly woke up as if from a dream and straightened up instantly.
He figured it out, everything was God's will, and as the male protagonist, he would always find a way to solve it.
I thought it through clearly, but when I saw Ling Junyan's resentful eyes, I didn't quite understand anymore.
Yun Qi raised an eyebrow. What do you mean? It's not my fault.
He looked at Baiyi again. Baiyi looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. Yunqi thought it was strange.
"Brother." Ling Jun said in a light tone.
Yun Qi didn't think too much about it. When he heard Ling Junyan calling him, he responded, "Hmm?"
"Are you happy during your days of wandering around the world?"
