Chapter 23 Chapter 23 I'll come and comfort you
"Why is this thing on you? So you stole it?" Wei Xin said in disbelief.
"It was not my intention. I just noticed that the relic was abnormal, so I went to get it back to avoid complications. Besides, the long soul lamp has been guarded, so it is time to get it back in the next few days."
Yun Du spoke very convincingly, but Wei Xin remained skeptical.
If that was the case, why not just point it out directly just now? Instead, he had to make such a fuss, which clearly showed that he had ulterior motives.
But no matter what, he was happy to see Yun Du being expelled from the Qingguan Sect.
Before long, the two arrived at the territory of Xuanji Sect.
Although he agreed to take Yun Du in, Wei Xin still didn't dare to take him directly back to Xuan Ji Sect. Instead, he cleared a piece of land nearby and transformed it into a luxurious house.
"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Wei Xin asked.
"I still like the original courtyard better." Yun Du said.
Wei Xin waved his hand, and the mansion turned into a small courtyard: "Like this?"
"Thank you." Yun Du happily stepped into the courtyard, looked around, and said regretfully, "It's a pity that I forgot to bring Wu Fang out."
"I'll go get him."
"Forget it. I guess the Qingguan Sect has stepped up its inspections now, so I'd better not go there anymore." Yun Du smiled but said nothing. Hearing the chirping of birds in the forest, he asked, "The scenery here is nice. Can you take me around?"
"Let's go." Wei Xin led the way and enthusiastically introduced the nearby scenery to him, "Your Qingguan Sect is really boring. It's nothing like our place, with birds singing, flowers blooming, and beautiful mountains and clear waters."
"Well, is there any fun place?"
"Yes, there is a Deer Spring in front of you. The deer come to drink water at night. The spots on their bodies will glow and look like stars at night. They are easily frightened and can be scared away by the slightest movement, so be gentle when you look at it."
"good."
"Phew, they seem to be coming."
Wei Xin grabbed his waist, jumped to the top of the forest, stepped on the breeze, and landed on a sweet-scented osmanthus tree.
"Look." Wei Xin raised his chin towards the front.
Yundu looked carefully and saw that the surroundings were dark, with only the moonlight casting a faint light.
A group of deer passed through the dark jungle. The starry sky seemed to descend upon them. They walked gracefully to the lakeside, lowered their heads to sip water, and their shadows were reflected on the lake surface.
The two of them quietly admired the deer drinking water for a while. Yun Du turned his head and looked at Wei Xin's focused profile. His eyes were staring at the deer herd with a smart look. The night wind blew his hair and brushed the corners of his slightly curled mouth.
The air is cool and pleasant with the scent of autumn osmanthus.
Noticing his gaze, Wei Xin looked at him in confusion: "What's going on?"
Yun Du raised his hand and stroked his hair without saying anything.
Wei Xin lowered his eyes, watched his hand move away, blinked, and didn't know what to say for a moment. He turned his head to look at the herd of deer, and suddenly threw a stone into the water.
The deer fled in all directions.
Wei Xin took out a hairband from his sleeve and handed it to him: "This is your Qingguan Sect's hairband, but it appeared in Wu Qin's room - Wu Qin is the one who secretly sold the soul-calling charm."
"Did you go to the Qingguan Sect to investigate this matter?"
"I originally wanted to let you find out who this belongs to, but I didn't expect you to be driven out." Wei Xin said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I still have influence in the Qingguan Sect." Yun Du said confidently.
"Don't say it was Yun Jin and Xu Shun."
"There are five more."
"...What can he do with that little bit of power? A hot fat chef trying to seduce a fasting disciple?"
Yun Du laughed twice: "The less conspicuous he is, the easier it is to get away with it. Besides, he is not just good at cooking."
"What else can he do?" Wei Xin was a little curious. He had personally checked Wufang's cultivation before, and found that he only had a little internal strength and had just embarked on the path of cultivating immortals. In terms of strength, he couldn't even pass the first level of the selection meeting.
"He can also climb up the roof and remove tiles, and is good at house repairs."
"......"
Wei Xin was too lazy to talk to him again: "I'm going back."
"See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow? What for?"
"Aren't you going to come and monitor me tomorrow?"
"......"
Since you know it clearly, why do you have to expose it in person?
"I'm not coming!" Wei Xin said stubbornly.
The next day, he stayed in his room and sent the most secretive Dong Ying out to monitor what Yun Du was doing all day.
Dongying had never seen Yundu before. After a day of surveillance, he reported back: "That kid spent the whole day in the yard clearing wasteland and planting crops."
Wei Xin: "Didn't go out?"
Dongying: “It has happened.”
"What did you do?"
"I went to the backyard and erected a monument and wrote a few words on it."
"What word?"
"—I want to see you."
Wei Xin: “…”
You can see me whenever you want? I don't care about my dignity?!
I won’t see it!
"Investigate again and report back."
"yes!"
One day passed.
Dongying: "My Lord, that kid has erected a new monument."
Wei Xin: "What is it written?"
"--Did you sleep well last night?"
Another day has passed.
Dongying: "It says on the new monument - I'm going out to relax tomorrow."
"Follow him." Wei Xin urged.
"yes."
In the evening, Dongying came back to report, and Wei Xin asked, "Where did he go that day?"
"He walked out of the courtyard and walked around the courtyard for a long time." Dong Ying knew that he couldn't guess the master's thoughts. He just followed his instructions. However, he was confused by the surveillance for several consecutive days. He asked bravely, "Master, who is that kid? He provoked you like this. Do you want me to kill him with a knife?"
Wei Xin glanced at him and said, "Only you?"
Dongying was terrified. Should he be killed or not?
Several days passed, and Dongying came back every day with news from the stele.
"——Egg custard, egg custard, delicious and tasty egg custard. One bite makes you ecstatic, two bites make you forget your roots, and three bites make you feel like a superior person."
Wei Xin: “…”
Hold on, hold on!
I can’t stand it!!!
Wei Xin sent Dong Ying away, came to the courtyard alone, stood outside the door for a while, and then pushed the door open and went in.
There were candles burning brightly in the room, and on the table stood two small bowls filled with bright yellow egg custard.
"I'm here." Yundu walked out from inside.
"I'm not here for this crap." Wei Xin saw that he had changed out of the white clothes of the Qingguan Sect and was only wearing a simple green outfit. No wonder Dong Ying didn't recognize him as a member of the Qingguan Sect.
"You are a busy person, so you can't come here just for a bowl of egg soup." Yun Du handed him the spoon, "We can talk about it later. Eat the soup first, it's getting cold."
The two sat opposite each other and ate quietly.
Wei Xin looked up at him and asked, "When are you going to return to the Qingguan Sect?"
"Isn't it embarrassing to go back after being kicked out?" Yun Du said, "Besides, I think this place is pretty good, with beautiful scenery and simple folk customs."
"......"
"Your subordinate is good-looking." Yun Du said suddenly.
Wei Xin was speechless: "Can you pay attention to something else?"
"But not as good as you."
"......"
Nice to listen, love to listen, say more!
"How long do you plan to live here?" Wei Xin asked.
"That depends on how long you, the landlord, are willing to keep me."
"What if I keep you forever?"
"Then I'll... think about it." Yun Du smiled slightly.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Consider what kind of identity you want to stay with."
"Join my Xuanji Sect, I can give you a good position." Wei Xin said.
Yun Du put down the spoon, picked up two empty bowls and went into the kitchen: "Although I was expelled from the sect, I am still the disciple of the master and will not join the Xuanji Sect."
"Then what identity do you want to stay in?" Wei Xin followed and asked, thinking in his mind whether there were any suitable vacancies in Xuanji Sect.
"How about I do yours..."
"What do you want me to do?"
"Master, how are you? If you accept me as your master, I won't be considered a traitor and I can stay here. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"
"You are so brave!" Wei Xin's pupils shrank slightly, and he said viciously, "I value talents, but I am not a fool!"
Yun Du smiled, patted his shoulder and said, "If you don't want to, forget it."
Just as Wei Xin was about to speak, Yun Du stretched out his finger and pointed it in front of his mouth.
"Hey, someone's coming."
Wei Xin subconsciously held his breath and stood in front of him, then he realized - this is my own territory, why should I be afraid of a ghost! ?
A chuckle.
Wei Xin raised his eyes and looked at the other person. Yun Du looked at his series of expression changes and couldn't help laughing: "Sorry, you are a little cute, I couldn't help it."
"......Who do you think is cute?!"
Wei Xin threw a punch and Yun Du dodged outside.
The two of them were running around the room chasing each other, and just when Wei Xin was holding his shoulders, the door was kicked open.
"Wei Xin, let my brother go!" Yun Jin shouted.
Xu Shun immediately stepped forward and rushed towards him, but was blocked by Wen Jingcheng.
"Wen Jingcheng, please move aside." Xu Shun said coldly.
"Master Yundu is also here, be careful not to hurt him accidentally." Wen Jingcheng said.
As soon as Wei Xin saw the two men, he got a headache and angrily slapped Yun Du: "You keep recruiting people!"
"Brother, are you okay?" Yun Jin stepped forward and supported Yun Du.
"I'm fine." Yun Du rubbed his shoulders and smiled.
"We just got back to Qingguan Sect and heard that something happened to you." Yun Jin looked at Wei Xin with gritted teeth, "It's all your fault. You've implicated my brother!"
"What does it have to do with me? If I hadn't taken him in, you wouldn't know where to find your senior brother now." Wei Xin folded his arms and raised his proud head.
"If you hadn't stolen Master's relics, I wouldn't have been expelled from the sect."
Wei Xin clenched and unclenched his fists.
"He didn't steal it." Yun Du said.
Wei Xin curled his lips and said, "Nonsense, the real thief is right here!"
Yun Du asked, "You just came back and don't know the inside story yet. Who told you this?"
“Everyone in the sect says so,” Yun Jin replied.
"Hehe, you are determined to splash this basin of dirty water on me, right? It seems that your Qingguan Sect is not a truly moral sect." Wei Xin sneered.
Yun Du sighed and said, "Fortunately, you three arrived in time."
The three of them calmed down and waited for his next words.
"The egg custard is still warm in the pot. If it's any later, it will get cold."
Several people: "......"
Wei Xin couldn't help laughing when he saw the expressions on the three of them.
Maybe it's because I've been in frequent contact with Yun Du in recent days, so as soon as he opens his mouth, I know he's not holding back. So when I heard his nonsense, I wasn't surprised at all, but instead felt a sense of accomplishment as if I had predicted everything.
"Let's talk while we eat." Yundu served egg custard to everyone.
Several people sat at the table. Yun Jin looked at his own small bowl, then at Wei Xin's big bowl opposite him. There was such an obvious difference in treatment that even a fool could see it!
Seeing Wei Xin's smug smile, Yun Jin couldn't help but ask, "Brother, why do we have so few?"
"This is a punishment for you who believe everything you hear." Yun Du said.
Three people: "......"
"Did anyone see you when you came out?" Yun Du asked.
Yun Jin: "No, but I estimate that the sect master and his men will know it soon. We were ordered to investigate the missing persons in the secret realm. We just came back and didn't have time to see the sect master, so we came to find you."
"How's the investigation going?" Yun Du asked.
“No progress.”
"Has anyone reported the results to the Sect Master?"
"Yes, several elders sent their disciples to participate in the investigation, even Dou Fang, who had just finished the assessment, went."
Yun Du and Wei Xin looked at each other and asked, "He just became my disciple, and Third Uncle sent him to investigate this matter?"
"He asked Third Uncle to go, saying that he wanted to find Xu Yingjun in person."
Yun Jin and Xu Shun looked at Wei Xin. Wei Xin shrugged and noticed that Wen Jingcheng seemed to be staring at him as well.
When he looked over, the other person had already lowered his head to eat.
Yun Du took out the hairband Wei Xin had given him and said, "Take this back and secretly check who it belongs to."
"Where did this come from?" Yun Jin took it puzzled.
"Found it in Xuanji Sect."
Yun Jin was shocked: "Could it be that someone in the Qingguan Sect is colluding with the Xuanji Sect?"
Xu Shun coughed and said in a low voice: "There is a pair right in front of us."
Yun Jin: “…”
"Only the three of you know about this matter. Don't spread it out." Yun Du instructed.
"I see."
"Besides that, if there is nothing important, you don't need to come here. After all, this is Xuanji Sect's territory. Don't let Qingguan Sect use this as an excuse to punish you."
"Brother, you don't plan to go back with us?"
"It's rare for me to go out, I'll go sightseeing for a while first."
"Then you better be careful." Yun Jin said this to Wei Xin.
He couldn't kill him by beating him, and he couldn't win by talking. Wei Xin was too lazy to refute him, so he simply put down his bowl and chopsticks and lay on the table pretending to be dead.
Yun Du sent them outside, took a look at Wen Jingcheng, and said, "Wen Jingcheng's apprenticeship ceremony has not yet been carried out. Strictly speaking, he is not my apprentice yet. You can take care of him for the time being. If you think he is good, you can take him as your apprentice. I don't think he will mind."
Wen Jingcheng's face turned slightly red.
"Okay, I'll take him with me first, but he is still your disciple after all, and I won't snatch him from you." Yun Jin said with a smile.
Yun Du returned to the room and saw Wei Xin sleeping on the table.
He walked up to him and pinched his nose.
For a long, long time.
Wei Xin remained motionless.
"If you don't get up, I'll kiss you."
"You are sick!" Wei Xin slammed the table and poked his head, "Why are you acting so high and mighty all the time? What's in your head!?"
"you."
Wei Xin took a while to react before he understood what he said. He rolled his eyes and said, "Say it again?"
"Your shirt is not buttoned properly." Yun Du reached out and held up his collar. "It's cold outside. Don't catch a cold."
Wei Xin looked at him for a while, thinking of their encounters over the past few days, and suddenly asked, "Are you a traitor?"
Yun Du paused and raised his eyes innocently: "Don't you think so?"
Wei Xin: “…”
Wei Xin: ""
Wei Xin: "You really are a traitor?!"
"Will you discriminate against me?" Yundu asked pitifully.
“Is this a question of discrimination or not?!”
"What's the problem?"
"Of course... yes..." Wei Xin thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what the problem was.
The two of them stared at each other for a long while before he said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You didn't ask. If you had asked me just now, I would have told you, right?" Yun Du said.
......It seems so.
But Wei Xin was really shocked. He had previously thought that this person was shameless and liked to joke... Wait, is he joking again this time?
"Are you really a traitor?" Wei Xin looked at him doubtfully, and then he remembered that the book did not mention this matter, and he became more and more doubtful about its authenticity.
"right."
"How do you prove it?"
"How can I prove this? I don't know how. Can you teach me?" Yun Du said with a smile.
"I certainly won't do that. I'm not a traitor."
"You're not?"
"What do you mean? How do you think I look like a cut-sleeve?!" Wei Xin pointed at himself with his eyes wide open.
Yundu turned his head and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" Wei Xin pushed his shoulder. "I'm asking you a question. Are you lying to me again?"
"No." Yun Du couldn't help laughing.
Wei Xin rolled his eyes at him.
I didn't see him for several days.
Dongying was sent out to investigate the news of Yunjin and his men, and he came back with a report: "Xu Shun was punished to go to Canghe because he made a small mistake."
Canghe River, a familiar place.
In the book, Xu Shun beat up several disciples of the Qingguan Sect because he heard them gossiping about Yun Jin behind his back. When asked why, he refused to tell the reason and was punished by being thrown into the Cang River.
The Cang River area is the territory of the Gui Luo Sect. The members of the Gui Luo Sect are ghost cultivators, and there are evil spirits and monsters everywhere, and dangers are rife.
It happened that Wei Xin was discussing Taoism with the Ghost King at that time, so they used this Qingguan Sect disciple as a bet and played tricks on each of them, causing Xu Shun to wander back and forth at the gates of hell, break through the bottleneck in dangerous situations, improve his cultivation, and make Wei Xin and the Ghost King become enemies, so that both sides suffered losses in the fight, and then he reaped the benefits and subdued the Ghost King.
Although there are some changes in the current process, Xu Shun still went to Canghe.
What is coming will come sooner or later.
Wei Xin looked up at the sky in silence: "If you have the guts, just kill me with a chop, don't make so much trouble!"
There was a flash of lightning.
"Oh my god, are you really going to chop me?!" Wei Xin pointed and cursed.
With a bang, the sky seemed to explode.
Dark clouds rolled in and heavy rain began to fall in an instant.
Wei Xin stood on the mountain range, overlooking the scenery in front of him. There was a dazzling white color in the misty valley.
The next moment, he appeared in the yard and looked up at the white brocade that covered the sky, from the roof to the gate. The heavy rain flowed along the curtains to the outside of the yard, and some raindrops flowed along the edges and dripped into the mud in the yard.
Under the eaves, Yundu was sorting the orchids he had just picked.
"You seem to have free time." Wei Xin walked under the eaves, looked down at his black boots covered in mud, and subconsciously wanted to do something, and a handkerchief was handed to him.
He took it, wiped off the dirt, and wondered, "Why do you always have to do these things yourself? Isn't it troublesome?"
"As time goes by, I always want to find something to do, for fear that I will forget the joys of mortal life." Yun Du took the handkerchief with a smile and went into the house to pour tea.
"Isn't the purpose of cultivation to escape from the mortal body? Why do you still want to be a mortal?" Wei Xin picked up the teacup and blew away the hot air.
"You and I have different initial intentions for cultivation. I think it's good to be an ordinary person." Yun Du took his teacup and poured out the water in it.
"What are you doing!" Wei Xin was unhappy.
"This is the water for washing tea. It doesn't taste good." Yun Du then made another cup of tea, held his cold hand, and placed it in his palm.
"You're so picky." Wei Xin drank it all in one gulp, without any tea tasting manners at all, just to quench his thirst, "It doesn't taste good."
"Tasteless."
"Are you swearing again?" Wei Xin angrily grabbed his arm and twisted it hard. Seeing that he was unmoved, he raised his hand and grabbed his ear.
"You're so rude—" Yundu's ears felt like they were being pinched off before he could finish the word "Lu", so he stopped talking immediately.
This pause made the topic even stranger.
"......" Wei Xin looked down, then slapped him away. He wanted to refute, but felt it was unnecessary.
Proud face.
Yundu chuckled and said, "Would you like to stay for dinner?"
"No more eating." Wei Xin received Elder Yin's sound transmission note, "I'm going back first, let's eat another day."
"Okay." Yun Du didn't ask any more questions, but handed him an umbrella. "It's raining heavily outside, be careful not to get wet."
"......"
Wei Xin walked into the rain without getting wet. He opened his hands and smiled, "I am different from you. I don't want to experience the life of an ordinary person. A life that is too comfortable is dangerous to me. I am not afraid of getting wet. This rain pressure will not wet me at all."
Yun Du held up an umbrella and walked in front of him: "You won't get wet this way."
Wei Xin looked up at him.
"There are many ways to avoid getting wet. Maybe you can choose a less dangerous way."
Wei Xin finally took the umbrella back with him.
Thinking back to Yun Du’s eyes when I left, they were soaked by the rain like spilled ink, dark and bottomless.
"My Lord, where did you get this umbrella?" Elder Yin came to discuss something with him and saw an oil-paper umbrella in his room. He came over with a smile and asked.
"A...friend." Wei Xin hesitated for a while, but finally said the word "friend".
He was curious and tentative about Yun Du at first, and then tried to make friends with Yun Du with a flattering attitude. Unexpectedly, they actually became friends in the end.
It’s really interesting to think about it.
"What friend? How old is she? Where is she from? Is she a Taoist partner? Do you like her, my lord?" Elder Yin asked earnestly.
"You're too talkative." Wei Xi glanced at him with disdain. "Why are you acting as a matchmaker when you can't be a good elder? What do you want from me?"
Elder Yin smiled and patted his mouth, then stepped forward and muttered, "My Lord, I think there is still hope for the matter you mentioned last time."
"What's the matter?" Wei Xin was confused.
Elder Yin blushed: "My Lord, just follow me."
Wei Xin followed him to the back hall in a daze. The veils were fluttering, the air was dark, and among the shadows, a young lady approached softly and said with red lips: "——Ah!"
He was slapped away by Wei Xin.
Another person came out from behind quietly.
"ah!!"
Still got shot away.
"Who are you? Do you want to die? How dare you attack me?" Wei Xin asked.
After a few bangs, the people inside immediately knelt down, trembling and not daring to move.
"Oh, my lord! You misunderstood, these are the beauties I collected!" Elder Yin pulled down the veil, and a row of beauties knelt down in a row. Some of them had already cried out of fear, looking extremely pitiful.
"What do you want them to do?" Wei Xin asked.
"My Lord, you can choose one from them, or take them all away." Elder Yin squinted his eyes and gave him a knowing smile.
Wei Xin suddenly realized what was going on, grabbed his collar and walked out: "Didn't I tell you I couldn't do it anymore? Why did you still ask someone to come?"
"Don't worry, sir. There are many people who have this problem. The most important thing is to regain your faith. Everything can still be saved!"
Wei Xin strode forward.
"My Lord, you have never been in contact with a woman. I have specially found different types of stunning beauties. You will know how amazing they are in a moment."
"How powerful?"
"I will bring you back to life. No man can escape their gentle embrace!"
Wei Xin paused: "Is it so effective?"
"Why don't you try it and find out?"
Wei Xin left him behind and turned around to walk inside.
Elder Yin nodded with relief and quickly withdrew the guards around him: "Go, go, go, don't stand here today. No matter how big the noise is, you are not allowed to go in. Do you hear me?"
A beautiful woman's scream was heard from inside. Elder Yin chuckled and quickly led the guards away from the place without noticing that there was no movement inside.
The rain hasn't stopped yet.
Yundu was sitting under the eaves peeling peas when suddenly his nostrils flared and he smelled a strong scent of powder, which almost covered up the familiar smell.
He stood up and walked into the house, and was stunned by the scene inside.
There were more than a dozen beauties in the room, with graceful figures and charming looks, sitting or standing, occupying every corner of his room.
Wei Xin sat alone in the middle and grinned at him: "How is it, are you satisfied?"
"Are these...your sisters?" Yun Du asked curiously.
"Sisters, please treat this young master well." Wei Xin curled his lips.
The beauties rushed forward and surrounded Yundu.
In the blink of an eye, Wei Xin came outside the house and leaned against the gate to listen to the movement inside.
The women's teasing voices rose and fell, the wood creaked, and Yun Du was nowhere to be seen coming out. Who knew how happy he must be in there.
Bah, damn broken sleeves!
Night falls.
The rain gradually stopped.
The beauties' panting sounds also stopped.
The door finally opened, and the beauties ran out in dishevelled clothes, crying and complaining, "My Lord, please make the decision for us!"
"This young man is really...really bad!"
"We are so weak, how can we stand such torture from him?"
Wei Xin looked at the person who walked out of the house. He was neatly dressed and even his hair was not messy at all.
"You are a beast in human clothing!" Wei Xin scolded.
Yun Du continued: "You have a beastly heart but a human face."
"Your face is as beautiful as a jade!"
"You have a jade-like appearance."
"You are handsome!"
"You call from the hall, and the people below will obey you."
"Yes, yes..." Wei Xin turned and pointed at the beauty in red, "You go ahead!"
"Yes." The beauty blinked her peach blossom eyes, "My Lord, are you still asking for justice for us?"
"Tell me, how did he treat you?" Wei Xin stared at the big liar at the door with a gloomy face, wishing he could bite him to pieces.
"He...he made us play games, and if we lose we have to accept his punishment. How can we beat him?" The beauty in red stomped her feet.
"What game?" Wei Xin asked.
"Arm wrestling."
"Shameless." Wei Xin turned to look at the others, "How did he punish you?"
"He actually asked us to saw wood!"
"Planing sawdust!"
"Nail the wood!"
"Repaint!"
"It's simply insane!"
"My Lord, look at our arms. They are so swollen that we can kill a cow with one punch!"
Wei Xin looked at their slender, white, tender hands, which had now turned red and swollen, and could not help but sigh, "You are too unkind to women."
"They damaged my furniture, I just asked them to repair it and restore it." Yun Duqian said with a smile.
"Do they still have this ability?"
"They don't have it, but the one who brought them here does. Come in, the bed is yours."
"......"
Wei Xin turned around and took the beauties back, asking, "Did you seduce him properly?"
"I swear on my beauty, we tried our best, but that young man just wouldn't accept it!" complained the beauty in red.
"Is it because you're not his type?"
"Impossible! We have won every battle and have never lost one! There are only three types of people who can remain calm under our attack!"
"Which three?"
"Eunuch, cut-sleeve, woman."
Could it be that he really is a traitor?
Wei Xin opened the door with a serious look on his face, thinking about something absent-mindedly, and did not notice the appearance of Elder Yin. When he came to his senses, a wrinkled old face appeared in front of him. He was so scared that he trembled and was kicked far away.
"Ahem! My Lord, what are you dissatisfied with me about?" Elder Yin said in panic.
"Who made you appear so suddenly?" Wei Xin walked up to him, looked at his old face, and sighed, "Don't worry too much. Why do I feel like you've aged a lot?"
"Hey, I have to worry about it. When the old master handed you over to me, it was destined that I would be busy for the Xuanji Sect for the rest of my life."
"Okay, okay, your name will be recorded in the book of merit and will be engraved on the tombstone. Even if I become a ghost, I will never forget your kindness." Wei Xin comforted him.
"Thank you, Lord... It sounds a bit creepy, but I appreciate your kindness." Elder Yin patted his chest, glanced at the beauties with red lips and white teeth and ragged clothes behind him, and asked with a smile, "Lord, are you satisfied with them?"
Wei Xin took a look and noticed the aggrieved looks of the beauties. Thinking of how they had been tortured by men who didn't understand romance for most of the day, he couldn't help but nodded sympathetically: "Well, it's okay."
"That's good, that's good." Elder Yin breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then according to your opinion, how should they be resettled?"
"Go back to where you came from." After Wei Xin said this, he left, leaving Elder Yin to ponder.
After much guessing, he still couldn't figure out the Lord's thoughts, so he had to find Nan Huang first and send her to escort the beauties back and find out what they had to say.
Inquire?
“I know what to do.” Nan Huang accepted the order.
During the escort, Nan Huang held a long sword in front of the beauty: "Tell the truth, what did you do to the Lord?!"
The beauties were surprised again.
"It's unfair! How dare we do anything to the Lord!"
"That's right, he won't even let us touch him!"
"Yes, in fact, I even doubt whether the Lord is..."
"I doubt it, too!"
"Me too!"
The group of people looked at each other and nodded firmly.
“What are you doubting?” Nan Huang moved his sword.
"We suspect that the Lord may be a eunuch!"
"It could also be a cut-sleeve!"
"Or a woman?"
Nan Huang: “???”
“What on earth is this?!” Nan Huang roared.
"Wait a moment, let us discuss this."
A group of people gathered together and whispered, and finally came to the conclusion -
"He is a traitor, and the man he hid in the cabin is an even more traitor among traitors!"
"How dare you spread rumors about the Lord!"
Nan Huang raised her sword and prepared to chop off their heads, but she heard the red-dressed beauty yell, “Go ahead and chop us to death. We sisters have suffered so much today!”
Nan Huang paused and suddenly asked, "What do you mean by the man hiding in the wooden house?"
"Go and see for yourself!" The red-dressed beauty stood up from under her sword and rushed to her to tell her what she had seen today. "That man is really very handsome. Everyone who sees him will like him. It's no wonder that your master hid him secretly."
"That's right, it's obvious that these two are plotting against each other!" said another person.
"The way they look at each other is not innocent at all! My beautiful lady, you must be more discerning!"
After Nan Huang sent these people back, she secretly checked the address they gave her, and she actually saw a newly built wooden house.
She observed from a distance for a while and saw a man in blue clothes in the yard, who was plowing the fields, weaving cloth, carrying water and watering the garden.
The Lord actually hid such an ordinary man!
Very good!
Elder Yin definitely doesn't know about this yet, and the others are even less aware of it. She is the one who holds the best information now, hehe!
After returning to Xuanji Sect, she immediately went to report to Wei Xin.
"My Lord, the people have been sent back to prevent them from leaking the secret. I have put a silence spell on them so that nothing will be leaked about what happened today."
"Well, you did a good job." Wei Xin nodded. Seeing that she hadn't left yet and seemed to be hesitant to speak, he asked, "Do you have anything else to do?"
"My Lord, I have a suggestion."
"What?"
“The cabin at the foot of the mountain is dilapidated, remote and deserted. Why not bring the young man to the back mountain and put him in front of you? Wouldn’t that be more convenient?” Nan Huang suggested.
When she mentioned the cabin, Wei Xin raised his eyebrows: "You know about this?"
"Yes, I dare not deceive you, my Lord. Those women told me everything, but I will never tell anyone!"
Now that you know it, you know it. A living person, living in the territory of Xuanji Sect, even if it is a bit remote, will be discovered sooner or later.
“My Lord, do you need me to ask that young master to come up?” Nan Huang asked.
"It's no use."
He wanted Yun Du to join Xuan Ji Sect, but if Yun Du wanted to join Xuan Ji Sect, he would have come long ago.
If you don't follow with all your heart, it's useless to force it.
“Why didn’t it work?” Nan Huang looked at him for a few seconds and suddenly asked, “Did you have a fight?”
"You know all this?" Wei Xin asked in surprise.
"I guessed, but in this case, once you guess, you know that something must be wrong."
Wei Xin held his head with a frown on his face. He regretted bringing these women to test the waters. He felt awkward and depressed. "How do you think I should face him?"
"That's not easy. No matter how many mistakes he made, they could only be his fault. Just give him a beating and he'll behave himself," Nan Huang said.
"Forget it."
If a real fight breaks out, it's hard to say who will win or lose.
Nan Huang had not expected that the Lord was so deeply in love with her that he even kicked Elder Yin out without saying a word, and he was unwilling to hit an honest farmer.
This farmer is not simple!
Nan Huang immediately felt that he had found the flattery, and continued with his words: "If you are reluctant to hit me, then I will have to bear the pain."
"pain?"
“Yes, follow his heart and make him feel that you are the kindest person who loves him the most in the world. Once he is touched, his heart will soften. Then, you can do whatever you want to him and ask him to do whatever you want, right?” Nan Huang said slowly.
Wei Xin listened for a while and always felt that something was not quite right, but it also seemed to make some sense.
Yun Du has always been a person who is willing to take soft measures but not hard ones.
Using brute force will not solve any problem, and will only lead to losses every time. Perhaps you should try a soft policy?
He glanced at Nan Huang and waved his hand: "Tell me in detail how it hurts."
Nan Huang was overjoyed and stepped forward immediately: “You only need to remember three principles. First, give what the other person likes; second, return the favor; third, throw yourself into his arms.”
Wei Xin was stunned: "Throw yourself into my arms?!"
"My words are a bit rough. You can also use the method of throwing a stone to test the water. You just need to test his limits more and find the measure to control him. Then you can give him some benefits at the right time and I guarantee you will win him over!" Nan Huang said.
Wei Xin touched his chin.
Nan Huang stayed in Wei Xin's room for most of the day before going out. He bumped into Dong Ying outside the door and snorted proudly, "Guess what the Lord gave me as a reward?"
"What?"
“Antidote!” Nan Huang laughed and raised two fingers. “I’ll give you two at a time!”
Dongying: "......Are you okay?"
"You know shit!"
Dong Ying curled his lips and went to find Wei Xin: "My Lord, I have found the information you want. Xu Shun has probably arrived in Canghe today, and Yun Jin is still in Xuanji Sect. He was punished and imprisoned because he interceded for Xu Shun and the missing Yun Du."
The fact that Yun Jin was punished coincides with the plot in the book.
"Got it." Wei Xin stood up and walked out.
"My Lord, where are you going?"
"Picking flowers."
Then cater to their preferences!
In the middle of the night, someone knocked on the door.
When Yundu opened the door, he saw Wei Xin standing outside the door in the moonlight, holding flowers in his hands, with a serious look and clear eyes.
"What are you doing here?" Yun Du said with a sneer.
"I'm sending you flowers, and also coming to love and comfort you." Wei Xin said.
"???"
Yun Du almost couldn't control his expression and said with a smile: "You should have known that I am a cleavage-wearer, right?"
"Well, what does this have to do with me loving you and coaxing you?" Wei Xin asked.
Yundu: “…”
Yundu: ""
Yun Du was embarrassed for the first time in front of him: "As expected of the Demon Lord, you are merciless."
"......"
