If you really count it, this is the first time that Yan Huailiu has taken the initiative to visit someone he is not so close to.
There is no special reason, it's just to fulfill the promise I made casually in the past.
I sent a message in advance, and as soon as I walked into the area of Tianjiu Peak, I saw Qiu Minghai running over to greet me.
He was not surprised at the way the two people were dressed. He just glanced at them and quickly invited them inside.
"Master Yan, nephew Gu, please come in."
"We are not as big as the Yuxu Sect. We are small. I am sorry to have made you laugh."
Yan Huailiu waved his hand: "It's also very good here. I just came from a nearby town and I can hear the people praising you."
"We haven't done anything wrong. We are truly grateful for their praise. Oh, Sect Master Yan, please come this way. I will be the one to receive you two today. If there is anything I can do to make you feel inadequate, please feel free to speak up."
Gu Xingyun looked at Qiu Minghai with surprise because he was too polite in front of them.
Apart from the one from Xuanyue Palace, this one can be considered a flexible person.
He remembered that his master was so angry with a short-sighted disciple from Tianjiu Peak that he stood on the roof of Tianjiu Peak with a sword in hand and cursed him for a whole day and night. He cursed so much that Qiu Minghai didn't dare to go out for half a year.
Among his master's many military achievements, this was the least remarkable one, so few people mentioned it afterwards.
I had thought that Master Qiu Feng’s relatively friendly attitude during my two previous visits to Yuxu Sect was already quite rare, but I didn’t expect him to receive me with such a warm welcome.
While he was daydreaming, he had already walked to a corridor. The birdsong was particularly clear and pleasant, and he couldn't help but look up.
Yan Huailiu also admired everything around him with curiosity.
Master Qiu Feng raised his hand to signal, and a variety of exquisite snacks had already been placed on the table not far away.
"From what I read in Sect Leader Yan's letter, it seems he doesn't want to draw attention to himself by making a big show, so he specially arranged for us to be here so we won't be disturbed. The scenery is pretty good, and it's perfect for a rest."
After Qiu Minghai finished explaining, he rubbed his hands nervously and said, "I wonder how long Sect Master Yan plans to stay? I've already arranged accommodation for him."
Yan Huailiu was about to speak when Gu Xingyun said, "Leave early tomorrow morning."
"Ah? So soon..." Qiu Minghai was a little disappointed and tried to get them to stay for a few more days: "If you're not in a hurry, you can stay a few more days. I can show you around."
Yan Huailiu smiled and continued, "Let's talk about it next time when we have a chance. The day is almost up."
He gave Qiu Minghai a meaningful look, and the latter stopped talking and turned the topic to Gu Xingyun.
"Nephew Gu..."
As soon as he uttered the name, he saw Gu Xingyun holding Yan Huailiu's hand in front of him.
Qiu Minghai choked on his own saliva and coughed twice, then quickly made amends, "Ahem, well...it's almost time. I'll go urge the chef. You two must try our Tianjiu Peak's specialties."
After he said that, he quickly got up and left, and decided that he would never call them nephew in front of them again.
Doesn't this also mean that Yan Huailiu will be demoted?
Although Sect Leader Yan looks like a good person now, there's no guarantee that he'll go crazy again someday and come to settle the score.
It’s better to be careful in what you say and do.
After the others walked away, Yan Huailiu leaned directly on Gu Xingyun. His mind was a little off. He raised his hand and said to the little sparrow not far away: "Come here."
The sparrow's black eyes rolled twice, and it actually flew into his hand.
Yan Huailiu regained consciousness for a moment and boasted to Gu Xingyun in a whisper: "Look—it really flew over here, so cute!"
Gu Xingyun couldn't see what was so cute about such a big thing. In his eyes, his master's current appearance was the cutest.
The sparrow stayed in his hand for a long time, but didn't get any food, so it flew away again.
Yan Huailiu yawned and said, "I'm a little sleepy and want to take a nap. If you see Master Qiu Feng coming, call me."
Without waiting for Gu Xingyun to answer, he fell asleep.
Gu Xingyun quickly hugged him in his arms, took out a piece of clothing to cover him, and then stared at Yan Huailiu's sleeping face in a daze.
"Master...can you please give me a little more time..."
"I just want to leave some more memories..."
The pleading voice quickly dissipated in the wind, unnoticed by anyone.
When Yan Huailiu woke up again, it was already past lunch time.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Gu Xingyun holding a branch with a flower bud in his hand, drawing talismans in the air out of boredom.
Before he could speak, their eyes met.
"Master, you're awake. Are you hungry? Are you uncomfortable sleeping in this position for so long? Let me massage you."
Gu Xingyun threw away the branch, helped him sit up, and carefully massaged his shoulders and neck.
"What time is it? Master Qiu Feng hasn't come yet?"
"I've been here before, but I saw that Master was resting, so I didn't come to disturb him." Gu Xingyun replied.
"Why didn't you call me?" Yan Huailiu turned sideways and looked outside the corridor.
Gu Xingyun turned his face back and said, "Master, rest is the most important thing. Don't worry, there is a spy from Master Qiu Feng here, he will be here soon."
Yan Huailiu looked around but didn't see anyone: "Where?"
Gu Xingyun pointed at the birds flying around him and said, "These are all."
Just as he guessed, as soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Minghai came over with a large pile of food, greeted him warmly, and then placed it all on the table.
Yan Huailiu smiled awkwardly: "Master Qiu Feng, please sit down together."
Qiu Minghai first glanced at Gu Xingyun, then refused: "No, no, I've already eaten. Your residence is just across the peach forest. If you feel tired after dinner, you can go there to rest."
When he placed the chopsticks in front of Yan Huailiu, he deliberately reminded him: "I'm at the Shui Mo Fang at the end of this corridor. If you need anything, you can find me there."
As soon as he left, Gu Xingyun couldn't help but ask, "Master Qiu Feng seems to have a hidden agenda. Did Master make an appointment with him in advance, so that's why he came here?"
Yan Huailiu nodded calmly: "Yes, he wanted me to help him complete a certain fragment of Tianjiu Peak. I happened to have read it and promised him that I would come to help when I was free."
He picked up a piece of meat for Gu Xingyun and said calmly, "After dinner, go and rest first. I'll go and help him deal with it. It shouldn't take long. Try this. I think it's delicious."
"I want to go with my master." Gu Xingyun put the piece of meat into his mouth and spoke vaguely.
"No." Yan Huailiu refused quickly, "Are you stupid? That's the secret of Tianjiu Peak. I had to show it to you. How could I let you watch from the side?"
Gu Xingyun put down his chopsticks and said sharply, "I'll just take a look, just to confirm."
Yan Huailiu raised his eyebrows: "What are you sure about? Wait, you are suspecting that I am lying to you, right?"
The little wolf cub didn't evade his gaze at all, but his tone was much more aggrieved: "Master, how many times have you lied to me..."
Yan Huailiu felt guilty for a moment.
