I'm not deceiving you.
There was silence for a while.
Seeing no response, Jiang Jingyuan outside slowly picked up the food and brought it to his mouth to eat, without any sign of anxiety.
In the killing realm of the magic weapon, the corners of the mouth reflected in the bronze mirror froze for a moment, and then slowly lowered bit by bit.
In front of the dressing table, a fiery red figure sat quietly, her red lips slightly pursed, her face expression indifferent.
Did he really notice something, or was he trying to trick her?
"I'm not trying to trick you."
Jiang Jingyuan's calm voice suddenly rang out all around.
Xu Qinglin's hands, folded on his legs, trembled.
"You'll understand if you think about this kind of thing," Jiang Jingyuan said lightly.
Xu Qinglin: "..."
Amid the crashing waves, Jiang Jingyuan walked back to the side of the boat and asked calmly, "So, have you thought of the wording?"
Why are you like a ghost...Xu Qinglin smiled.
After a moment of silence, Xu Qinglin finally sighed sadly and said, "I saw that celestial being."
As soon as these words came out——
The girl in white, walking lightly on the deck, subconsciously tilted her head, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. Then she regained her composure and said, "What did he do?"
"No." Xu Qinglin said very straightforwardly this time, "I just saw Him."
Suddenly, she chuckled softly, and said with a curled mouth: "You also know... As for Him, just one glance is enough..."
People’s hopes and greed are like a lake. When the wind passes by, ripples will appear on the surface of the lake.
Jiang Jingyuan heard this, and his dark eyes flashed with an inexplicable light. The corners of his mouth rose a little bit, and he didn't ask any more questions. His voice was low and with an obvious smile: "Yes..."
In the end, the smile on her face did not diminish at all, but became more and more intense, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
Jiang Jingyuan chuckled softly in his heart, as if slowly responding to a previous question, "I'm just tricking you..."
Even if it is 90% certain, guesses are still guesses.
Even if Xu Qinglin didn't admit it, she wouldn't relax at all, but after Xu Qinglin admitted it, she felt a little relieved...
Inside the magic weapon killing realm, Xu Qinglin suddenly realized this, her expression twisted for a moment, and she opened her mouth. In the end, she just sighed melancholy and muttered to herself: "I really... have a miserable life..."
Jiang Jingyuan heard it, but ignored it.
Now that I'm in her hands, I have to listen to her wholeheartedly.
Her own little thoughts...she doesn't like them.
Holding the boat's bow with both hands, the girl in layered white clothes squinted her eyes slightly, and the morning sea breeze blew on her face, bringing a salty and cool feeling.
The air flowed through the tip of her nose. It seemed that only in this way could she feel that she was breathing and that she was still alive.
After she came out of Feng Qingyi's illusion, she often felt suffocated and couldn't breathe.
"If you were an emperor, you would definitely be a tyrant." Xu Qinglin seemed to have sensed this and sighed helplessly.
Jiang Jingyuan seems easy to talk to, but only those who follow her around for years will know that she is really arbitrary and does what she says.
A perfect fit for a tyrant...
Jiang Jingyuan smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "I saw it."
Xu Qinglin in the killing realm paused for a moment, then glanced at her with a little surprise, as if he wanted to ask something, but finally gave up his curiosity about something that had nothing to do with him.
It seems easy to understand, yet it seems no one can truly understand her.
What outsiders understand is nothing more than the thinking and behavioral principles that Jiang Jingyuan unconsciously learned and imitated from everyone he met in the secular world.
Xu Qinglin was very curious. Does Jiang Jingyuan know what he is like?
The hazy sky gradually turned brighter, the bright white sunlight cast a scorching heat, and amid the ever-changing sound of surging waves, the tired people on the gray and dilapidated ship finally woke up.
This rest did not relieve the tiredness and exhaustion of the past few days. The people sitting cross-legged on the deck were listless and could no longer maintain the slightest vigilance or alertness.
They stuffed their cheeks with dry food and water, their eyes drooping, no longer looking at the people around them calmly like when they came. Their whole bodies exuded a decadent spirit of living if possible, and forgetting if not.
It was not until nightfall that a dozen people seemed to have thought of something, and their eyes suddenly burst with strong and burning hope and expectation.
They lit up the orange lights and sat sparsely on the deck, leaning against the ship's side. Smiles unconsciously appeared on their tired faces, and they chatted with each other in groups of three or four from time to time.
"This time when I went back, my cousin came to pick me up..." One person said softly with a smile on his face, slightly raised his head and looked at the night sky.
The familiar faces nearby were filled with surprise, and they whispered in surprise, "It's the honor of your family that has been enrolled in Tianlu Pavilion since childhood!"
The man smiled and said softly, "Hmm," with a nostalgic look on his face. He said softly, "Yes, it's been many years since we last met... I wonder if she would still recognize me now..."
"Of course they can. Have you seen the portrait they sent back? You two look so alike!" the person next to him said excitedly, "Then I'm going with you this time! Let me see a genius too!"
On the other side of the ghost ship, Jiang Jingyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly turned his head and asked softly, "Do you know how to get to Tianlu Pavilion?"
Hua Simiao, who was standing next to him, didn't respond immediately. She looked at Jiang Jingyuan, a little stunned. After a moment, she asked doubtfully, "Are you going to Tianlu Pavilion?"
The major immortal gates have never been located on certain hills like in certain counties, with each gate located in a certain place. Many people have spent their entire lives trying to find the location of those immortal gates - all they can find are some small sects.
If there is no one to help and support, it is basically impossible for children from poor families to join the major immortal sects.
"Yes." Jiang Jingyuan said calmly, "Qianchen Mirror, I want to borrow it once."
The past events of this life, the old dreams, can all be seen in the mirror of the past.
In the intelligence provided by the Rong family in the past, what happened in the major immortal sects and families may not be so clear, but what treasures their families have are recorded clearly.
The Mirror of the Past is now in Tianlu Pavilion.
Hua Simiao uttered an "Ah" in shock, blinked, and came back to her senses: "It's common for forces to do this, but for a single person... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult."
This is already an understatement. It is wishful thinking for me to want to borrow things from the major immortal sects and families. Don't even think about it!
But no matter whether it was the Rong family or the Jiang family, it was impossible for them to borrow such a useless mirror for her... Besides, she couldn't find a suitable reason to bring up this matter with the Jiang and Rong families... Jiang Jingyuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Can I go in with them?"
As she spoke, she looked at the expression on Hua Simiao's face calmly.
She told Hua Simiao everything. It wasn't that she trusted Hua Simiao that much, but Hua Simiao did have many connections. She wanted to see Hua Simiao's attitude towards this and see if she could lend her help.
Hua Simiao didn't show much surprise or resistance when she heard this. She seemed to have just listened to Jiang Jingyuan's words and thought about it carefully. She shook her head and said, "It's unlikely. They wouldn't let outsiders in."
Jiang Jingyuan nodded, feeling as expected.
If outsiders could enter and exit the major immortal gates at will, then God knows how many people would sneak in every day.
After a pause, Hua Simiao seemed to have thought of something funny. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and said with a giggle, "But it's different if they put it in on their own initiative..."
Something seemed to flash through his mind, and Jiang Jingyuan looked thoughtful.
After a moment, Jiang Jingyuan nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
Hua Simiao curved her round eyes, grabbed a stack of yellow and black talismans from the storage space, and stuffed them into her hands mysteriously.
Jiang Jingyuan glanced at her with some confusion.
Hua Simiao covered her mouth with her hands and chuckled, saying, "These talismans are different from those on the market. If you really go inside, there will be no chance of a good negotiation. You have to make a big fuss so that they will be forced to give you what you want."
I understand. These talismans must contain surprises... Jiang Jingyuan nodded seriously, took the talisman and placed it in an empty space in the storage space.
"Oh right." Hua Simiao suddenly seemed to remember something, put down her hand, stopped smiling, and said seriously, "You'd better bring someone to pick them up."
Jiang Jingyuan didn't ask the reason. Since Hua Simiao said that, it would definitely be better for her to take everyone to Tianlu Pavilion.
But who should I bring?
Jiang Jingyuan's first reaction was to think of Qin Jiuyan, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it would be such a pity and a waste to waste such a favor on such a small matter.
"It's okay if you don't have any." As if she saw her dilemma, Hua Si Miao smiled sweetly and said, "It's just that those big immortal sects are more likely to use shady tactics, so it's okay if you bring more defensive magic tools!"
Jiang Jingyuan nodded - Xu Qinglin was there anyway, and he could handle it.
Xu Qinglin, who knew what she was thinking at a glance, sneered "Hehe". She had been living well at the bottom of the pool in the palace back then, but she had no choice but to follow Jiang Jingyuan. Now, she was treated like a slave by Jiang Jingyuan every day.
"And I have to be manipulated in various ways!!!" When Xu Qinglin thought of this, he felt extremely heartbroken.
She felt heartbroken, so heartbroken. She just felt that she had been studying the method of immortality three hundred years ago, forgetting food and sleep, just to give Jiang Jingyuan the opportunity and help him now.
I have such a miserable life... Xu Qinglin thought with tears in his eyes, not even daring to say it out loud.
"I know what you are thinking. Stop talking about it. The more you talk, the more miserable your life will become." Jiang Jingyuan's voice sounded at this moment.
Xu Qinglin: "..."
"Do you know what kind of treatment I received when I was a human being..." Xu Qinglin silently clenched his fists, thinking tearfully, "If I had known this would happen, I would have just let me rot in the mud at the bottom of the pond!"
Back then, she was showered with affection and attention, and was a highly sought-after genius! !
It’s nothing like it is now, where one person has to do several jobs and can’t complain at all!
Xu Qinglin, who was in the realm of magic weapon killing, stayed awake all night, thinking about it over and over again, and he felt heartbroken no matter how he thought about it.
After Jiang Jingyuan in the outside world figured everything out, he and Hua Simiao each went back into the invisible barrier, closed their eyes and fell asleep.
I had a dreamless night until dawn.
