Chapter 127: Careful Calculation and Spring Feeling
After hearing what was said, Shangqing Zhenren stood up and walked towards the door, but when he reached the door, he stopped.
"Since you have made up your mind to accept it, then it's up to you!"
All the elders were shocked when they heard this, thinking that Shangqing Zhenren was angry. Zhenren Fuyin was about to speak to persuade him, but saw that Shangqing Zhenren had turned half of his face away.
"But don't forget, you still have Yuan Qing behind you. Even if the sky falls, we old bones can hold it up for you."
A gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing the curtain open. Lingxiang looked at the group of immortals, only to see that they were all standing, their faces full of determination. She smiled, her eyes shining, and at that moment the wind died down and the curtain fell.
…
"Tell me, is there any place in your Qiuyun Peak where we can hide things?" Lingxiang asked Maidong who was helping her knead and apply medicine while she was lying on the bed.
After two days of massage by Master Fuyin, the redness and swelling on her legs had subsided, but she still couldn't walk. However, staying in Master Donghui's house was not a solution, so Lingxiang suggested moving to Qiuyun Peak to save Maidong the trouble of running back and forth.
Mai Dong was immediately alerted when he heard this: "What bad things are you planning? But don't involve me. Last time, Master punished me by making me copy the Qingxin Jue. Senior Brother Guanchen helped me write a lot of it. I wonder if Master has noticed."
As he spoke, he accidentally increased the force on his hand, causing Lingxiang to grimace in pain.
She hissed and said, "I'm not asking you to do anything. I just want to know where I can hide something." Then she told him what she heard from the Chaos Bell when she was injured last time, and her own speculation.
"You mean, you and Linglong have a spiritual connection?" Mai Dong was extremely surprised when he heard this, but then he realized, "No wonder you wanted to come to Prison Cloud Peak to recuperate. It turns out this was all planned long ago."
Lingxiang glanced at Maidong and said, "What do you mean by scheming? I just want to get my things back. Look at what you said. If someone didn't know, they would think I was planning something criminal."
Mai Dong curled his lips when he heard this, and thought to himself: Even if what you have done over the years cannot be called a crime, it is extremely bad.
But she herself did not expect that even for such a vicious Lingxiang, she, as an accomplice, was also responsible. Many times, she was the one who came up with many methods for Lingxiang.
"Last time you said that the "Dragon-Entwining Sword Technique" was found in your master's hiding place. Then where is his hiding place?" Lingxiang asked, grabbing Maidong's hand.
Maidong couldn't break free for a while: "Don't talk to me about that damn sword technique anymore. It was because of your crappy sword technique that my master punished me to copy the Qingxin Jue. You actually want to encourage me to do things for you. I tell you, it's impossible." As he spoke, he exerted force and finally broke free from Lingxiang's clutches. As soon as he broke free, he immediately stood up and hid far away.
Lingxiang had just applied the medicine and it was inconvenient for her to move. She just turned her eyes and sat up with her arms crossed.
"Hey~tsk tsk tsk!"
When Maidong heard her tone, he felt a chill down his spine. He hurriedly packed up his medicine bottles, wanting to get away from this plague god, but he stopped after hearing her next words.
"You've been under house arrest by Sixth Senior Brother for some time now, right? Although this Prison Cloud Peak is shrouded in clouds and mist like a fairyland, and the scenery is quite unique, you'll eventually get tired of it if you see it too much. How can it compare to my Qingwei Peak, with its picturesque scenery and vibrant life? Besides, there's a young man on Qingwei Peak with delicate features and a handsome appearance. If you saw him every day, it would be really pleasing to the eyes. Tsk tsk tsk, it's a pity that from now on, only I will be able to see such a beauty. Oh, what a pity, what a pity~~"
Maidong paused for a long time, then sat back on the couch.
"Now your Qingwei Peak is completely bare of trees. How can it be full of life? You are just talking nonsense."
When Lingxiang saw her sit down, she knew she was persuaded.
"Tell me, where is the small treasury and how do we get in?"
Mai Dong didn't respond, but instead asked, "How are you going to get Master to release me from my confinement?"
Lingxiang smiled and said, "A few days ago, I took Xinyi and the others to Langhuan Pavilion to pick out a lot of magic techniques. But if I let them practice on their own, I think there will be problems. And I'm in a lot of trouble right now. If someone could give me some pointers..."
Lingxiang didn't finish her words. Maidong listened and hesitated for a long time, as if he had made up his mind - Master, Master, don't blame your disciple for betraying you. If you want to blame someone, blame you for having a scheming junior sister.
So Maidong leaned close to Lingxiang's ear.
"This is so, this is so."
…
Long Qi and his two companions were sent back to Xianyunju that day. Now he was sitting in the yard listlessly. Although Rendong looked normal on the surface, he was very depressed in his heart.
Xinyi, on the other hand, seemed to be indifferent and was practicing swordsmanship alone in the open space.
It's not that he doesn't care about Lingxiang, but in his opinion, Lingxiang is not a reckless person. Whatever she does, she must have her own calculations. If she forms a pact with Xiaobai, she must have some plans for the future.
The three of them were each preoccupied with their own things, but suddenly they heard footsteps outside the yard. The footsteps were so cheerful that they could even hear humming faintly.
It was a woman's voice. Could it be that Lingxiang had returned?
Long Qi hurriedly stood up, but just as he was about to take a step, he saw Ophiopogon japonicus at the gate of the courtyard.
"Why are you here? Where is Lingxiang?" Long Qi sat down again and asked unhappily.
This surprised Maidong. What happened to her?
"I say, you should at least call me Senior Sister, but why do you seem unwilling to see me?" Pulse said as she entered the courtyard. "Let me tell you, I, your Senior Sister, was entrusted by your Master to come here to guide you in your cultivation."
After hearing this, Honeysuckle asked, "How is her leg injury?"
Mai Dong felt comforted. It turned out that there were still disciples who cared about her. They were not like Long Qi, who was disrespectful all day long and had no rules at all.
"It's nothing serious, but if you want to be safe, you still need to stay in bed for a few days to recuperate," Mai Dong said, looking at Xin Yi, his eyes full of stars. "It's just that she really can't let go of your cultivation, so she begged me to come and teach you. I couldn't refuse her kindness. After all, she is my Ninth Grandmother by seniority, so I have to give her face, so I came here reluctantly."
Seeing her like this, Xinyi immediately smiled - Maidong is still the same as when he was a child.
Looking at Xinyi with a smile on her face, Maidong was stunned for a moment. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He thought that he was too aggressive. Although Lingxiang once said that he should be more proactive with a taciturn girl like Xinyi, he must not act like this now, like those nuns who have never seen a man and have no worldly experience at all.
But she also felt suspicious. Xinyi had never smiled at her before, and she had never had time to hide from her. Why did she seem not to be afraid of her now?
Could it be that because of my relentless pursuit, he also started to have feelings for me?
But it's good. Even so, I still have to be reserved, so as not to let him feel that I can't wait any longer.
Although I do want to be with him...
Mai Dong was so lost in thought that he couldn't help but laugh out loud. That look was really...
A little silly...
