Chapter 24 Chapter 24 This is our judgment...
For several days in a row, Wei Xin went to give Yun Du some flowers and plants and then sat with them for a while.
The sunlight was bright that day.
Wei Xin pushed open the door, and Yun Du sat upright and looked at him: "Come on, sit down, let's talk."
"What to talk about?" Wei Xin sat down calmly and placed the flowers across the table.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Yun Du asked.
"I want to be nice to you, isn't it okay?"
"Only these flowers?"
"What else do you like?" Wei Xin asked.
Yun Du looked at him, his throat rolling, and then squeezed out two words: "Kite."
Wei Xin was stunned for a moment, then said with amusement: "Kite?!"
"right."
"Okay, I'll give you a kite."
Wei Xin was just about to conjure up a kite when he heard him say, "I want a kite I made myself."
"Does it have to be so troublesome? Even if I change it myself, it won't work?"
“It’s different.”
"What's the difference?"
"One is doing, the other is becoming."
"......" Wei Xin gritted his teeth and stood up, "What should we do?"
Yundu smiled slowly.
Wei Xin sat at the table, stirring the paste with an expressionless face.
Yundu was cutting paper and then started painting: "What kind of painting do you want?"
"If you want to play, just do it yourself. I'm not interested." Wei Xin said.
So Yundu picked up his brush and drew half a wing.
"You don't want to paint a butterfly, do you? This is the aesthetic of Duanxiu?" Wei Xin asked.
"......"
Yundu also drew a skull opposite the wings.
"If someone didn't know, they would think you were painting the Ghost King. What, are you attracted to him?"
"......"
Yundu raised his head and said, "Then what do you think I should paint to look good?"
"It's up to you. Just paint what you like." Since aesthetics wasn't that great anyway, Wei Xin recalled his first impression of him.
Yundu changed a new piece of paper, turned his back to him, and quickly finished the drawing before he spoke.
"Let me see what you have drawn now?" Wei Xin mixed the paste and turned his head to look.
Yun Du held the drawing paper in front of him and said, "This is the aesthetic of our Cut-Sleeves."
Wei Xin looked at the person in the painting who looked exactly like him: "......"
Yundu: "How?"
"Nothing." Wei Xin said stubbornly, "It doesn't make me look handsome at all."
"I'm not talented, but I'll draw a better one for you another day." Yun Du applied the paste on the skeleton.
However, it was sunny and windless outside.
The two looked at the sun above their heads, then looked at each other. Wei Xin asked with a gloating look on his face, "You don't want me to cast a spell? What should I do?"
"Wait until next time, come again when there is wind." Yun Du said calmly.
The two men turned and went into the house, and suddenly a strong wind blew over.
"You can fly it now." Yun Du put the string in place and put the kite into his hands. "Do you know how to play?"
"Why not? Who are you looking down on?" Wei Xin walked into the yard and pulled the string in the strong wind. With a slight tug, the kite broke.
Wei Xin: "...There's something wrong with this wind."
Yundu smiled lightly.
"There's something wrong with this wind!" Wei Xin flew over to pick up the kite that had fallen on a branch, and in the process caught Nan Huang who was hiding in the tree.
"Is this wind your masterpiece?" Wei Xin asked.
“Yes, I saw that young master wanted to fly a kite, so I helped him a little.” Nan Huang smiled shyly.
"What can I do for you? How long have you been hiding here?"
“I’m afraid that you don’t understand, my lord. You’ve been taking action for several days, but they haven’t even thought about coming to Xuanji Sect. But look at him, how happy he is smiling now!” Nan Huang nodded in the direction of Yun Du.
Wei Xin turned his head and looked over, seeing Yun Du's worthless smile: "......"
"My Lord, I actually think you should..."
"Don't hide here and embarrass yourself. Go back quickly." Wei Xin said.
“Yes… then my Lord, you should work hard.” Nan Huang left with regret.
Wei Xin took the kite back and threw it to Yun Du.
Yun Du changed the line again and asked with a smile: "What's the girl's name?"
"Why do you ask so many questions?"
"She has been guarding here for days, and not even a fly can fly out."
"Why, who else do you want to come here to visit?" Wei Xin asked.
"It's not like he can visit. There's just news about the hairband from the Five Parties, but he can't get in. The formation outside is too difficult for him."
The formation must have been set up by Xique, but the order was not given by him. No one knew how Nanhuang communicated with Xique to have people set up the formation around here.
"It wasn't me." Wei Xin said.
"Without your consent, this battle would not have lasted this long."
Wei Xin touched his nose and said, "I'll put the five directions in."
"No, I'd better go out and meet him, so as not to frighten him."
"Are you coming back?"
Yun Du handed him the repaired kite and smiled: "Of course."
Wei Xin originally wanted to ask whether he would return directly to the Qingguan Sect, but after hearing this answer, he felt that there was no need to ask any more questions. He hooked his fingers around the tangled thread and fiddled with it when he heard him say, "Let's go together."
"Where are you going?"
"Meet Wufang. You may also want to know the news he brought."
"Can I listen?"
"Of course, isn't it our common goal to find out who is behind this?"
Common goal...
Wei Xin has been taught since childhood that there is a difference between good and evil. Whether in terms of practice or purpose, they are completely opposite. The righteous see them as thorns in their eyes, and their goal is to eliminate them, so they have to make themselves stronger in order to suppress the enemy.
He never thought that one day he would share the same goal with the righteous people.
Wei Xin looked at Yun Du with a complicated expression for a few times, and was taken out by him absent-mindedly.
Wu Fang was just outside the formation, pacing back and forth in a panic. When he saw them, he immediately ran forward, but was then blocked by the formation and fell.
Wei Xin put away the formation, Wu Fang quickly got up, and walked to Yun Du nervously, with a worried look on his face: "Master Yun Du, have you been okay these days?"
"good."
Wu Fang glanced at Wei Xin cautiously and asked in a low voice, "Did this devil give you any trouble?"
"I can hear you." Wei Xin came up to him, revealing his green face and fangs.
Wu Fang was so frightened that he fell on his butt.
Wei Xin threw away his mask and laughed out loud.
Yun Du smiled helplessly, helped Wu Fang up, and asked, "Did you find any results on the matter Yun Jin asked you to investigate?"
"Yes." Wu Fang took out the headband, "I checked, no disciple has lost this item."
"Have you checked it carefully?" Wei Xin asked distrustfully.
"Of course, I even checked the toilets of the outer disciples!" said Wufang Xiong.
"Hey, why are you so anxious?"
"Who told you to question my ability!?"
Wei Xin immediately hid behind Yun Du, blocking the saliva attack, poked Yun Du's back and said: "If you don't want him to die, take care of your people."
Yundu smiled and said, "Let's put the hairband aside for now. How is Yunjin?"
"Miss Yun Jin is still in confinement, but she asked me to secretly bring you a message."
"What?"
Wu Fang glanced behind him for a few times, hesitating to speak: "Can I talk to you alone?"
"It's okay, go ahead." Yun Du said.
Wei Xin turned his head and glanced at him.
"Xu Shun was sent to Canghe. Miss Yun Jin said that he would be in great danger this time. If possible, I hope Master Yun Du can go and help take care of her only disciple. It would be better than...better than staying in Xuanji Sect."
Yun Du nodded and said, "Although the trip to Canghe is dangerous, if Xu Shun is given everything to escort him, what else can he do? I guess it is not what he wants. You go back and tell Yun Jin to relax and lock him up properly. Don't worry too much."
"......" Wufang choked and asked again, "Master Yundu, are you going back to Qingguan Sect?"
"I'm afraid I can't go back for a while. By the way, where's Wen Jingcheng?"
"Besides visiting Miss Yunjin every day, I just stay in the courtyard and clean the house for you."
Yun Du pondered and said, "Let him go to Canghe River as well and keep Xu Shun company."
"Okay." Wufang nodded, and after finishing his business, he went back.
"Why did you let Wen Jingcheng go to Canghe as well?" Wei Xin asked as the two walked back.
"Canghe is extremely dangerous, and it will be a test for him as well." Yundu said with a smile.
Wei Xin always felt that there was something unusual in his smile. His eyes fell on the hairband in his hand and he asked again, "What should we do with this thing? I can't find anything out of it."
"I still have some clues. If this headband does not belong to the disciples, it means that it is very likely intended to lead you to the Qingguan Sect."
"I've long thought it was a coincidence. I left just as your relics were stolen..." Wei Xin pointed at him, "You planned it, didn't you? You stole the relics on purpose and put the blame on me, then you were expelled from the sect and followed me back to Xuanji Sect. You really have a good plan!"
"It's true that I took the relic, but I didn't arrange the following things." Yun Du held his finger and put it down. "This is the relic of our master. I will definitely not use it to do anything wrong. Can you trust me?"
Wei Xin looked at him quietly for a while, then withdrew his hand, put his hands behind his back, and continued to walk forward swayingly.
As soon as the two returned to the wooden house, they saw Nan Huang standing in front of the house.
"My Lord, Elder Yin is looking for you. He has something important to discuss with you."
"What is it?"
"The Ghost King will hold a birthday banquet in three days. He has sent an invitation to the Xuanji Sect and would like to invite you to attend the banquet and discuss the Dao together."
"No." Wei Xin immediately refused.
"If you don't go, he will send his sister over."
"...Shameless! Despicable! Hateful!!!"
Yun Du saw his angry look and turned his head to ask Nan Huang, "What happened to his sister?"
“My goodness, you are so handsome.” Nan Huang had secretly observed him before but did not dare to get too close for fear of being punished by the Lord. This was the first time she saw his face clearly up close, and her eyes lit up.
Yun Du smiled, showing his best profile: "Thank you for the compliment, thank you for the compliment. May I ask your name, young lady?"
“You can just call me Nan Huang.” Nan Huang saw that he had an outstanding temperament and stood proudly. He was much more pleasing to the eye than those rough guys in Xuan Ji Sect, and he was also polite. No wonder the Lord liked him so much.
"What's going on between him and the Ghost King's sister?" Yun Du asked gently.
"That sister loves our Lord very much, and her methods are very... Oh, I don't know how to describe it, you will know when you see it with your own eyes. Fortunately, the Lord and the Ghost King have a bad relationship, and the Ghost King doesn't want the Lord to be his brother-in-law, so he locked up his sister."
Yun Du looked at Wei Xin's angry and frustrated expression and asked, "He seems to be very afraid of that girl?"
Nan Huang: "Rather than being afraid, it's better to say I respect her... and stay away from her. That girl saved my Lord's life."
"Saved him? When?"
"I don't know the specific details. I was just a small sect leader at that time."
While the two were talking, Wei Xin had secretly taken out the book and flipped through it.
The book records that when he was discussing Taoism with the Ghost King, he used the disciples of the Qingguan Sect who suddenly appeared in the Canghe area as a gambling tool.
Although Xu Shun suffered a lot, he made a major breakthrough in his cultivation and his hatred for Wei Xin deepened.
Canghe and his group cannot escape.
Then he can change the process and details himself.
"Go back and tell Elder Yin that I will be attending the Ghost King's birthday banquet. Ask him to prepare."
“Yes.” Nan Huang immediately went back to convey the order.
"I'll go to Canghe with you." Yundu said.
"I'm attending the birthday banquet, what are you going to do?" Wei Xin asked.
"I'm going to go see Xu Shun."
"Didn't you just say you wouldn't escort him?" Wei Xin asked curiously, "Why are you going to look for him so soon?"
"I'm just taking a look and I won't help. I'm a very principled person." Yun Du said righteously.
Wei Xin looked at him for a few seconds and said, "Why don't I believe it?"
"If you don't believe me, you can supervise me."
"How to supervise?"
"Keep an eye on me all the time to see if my actions are inconsistent with my words. If you're worried, you can tie me up by your side."
