Chapter 361 Let’s Talk About It Later
"Regardless of whether there are deeper forces behind the conspiracy of the millennial families, judging from the events, this matter has finally come to an end."
"The demon who ascended to heaven by relying on the immortal fate has been killed, and the ruins have been emptied by the immortal sect. I am afraid that it will not be able to make any waves."
In the warm room heated by the fireplace, Ji You spoke while drinking soup.
The only thing in this world that can surpass the Immortal Sect is the Immortal Fate in the ruins. Without these, no matter how evil the people hiding in the dark are, they will ultimately be powerless.
So even if not all those killed or captured in the previous crusade were there, now that the ruins are empty, even if there are people behind the scenes hiding deeper, they will probably have to keep their minds focused.
Just saying this, Ji You still felt strange in his heart, and felt a little uncomfortable all over.
Because if such a person really exists, and the Chu family, Li family and others are plotting to get the holy weapon, then what is this person plotting?
He raised his head and looked at the young master of Lingjian Mountain, whose face was as white as jade and was illuminated by the fire.
Discussion is better than thinking hard because different ways of thinking may focus on different directions and the speculation on events will be more comprehensive, so he wants to know what the tsundere ghost thinks.
But when he looked up, he found Yan Shuyi looking at his bowl with a cold and arrogant expression.
Finished drinking.
The bastard is about to finish his soup...
Yan Shuyi thought for a long time, then calmly held the socks in the palm of her hand, put her jade feet into the shoes, pretended to be calm and stood up slowly.
The young lady has a perfect figure, with all the right curves. She stands sideways in the room, and with her usual cold expression, she really looks like a goddess who has renounced all emotions and love.
"The truth of this matter is not urgent. If that person has stopped his actions, then there will be no problem. If he still has intentions, he will be exposed sooner or later."
"I am tired from the journey, so let's stop here for today. We can discuss it later if there is anything else."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Jianzhu walked towards the door with an expressionless face.
She had asked Zhuo Wanqiu to clean up the room in the west wing, and now she was going back to sleep.
But before she could take a step, the little judge was grabbed by the wrist, and a hint of fear flashed in her eyes.
She was pulled over in a gust of fragrant wind, and her soft body fell into Ji You's arms in an instant.
If there is anything, "let's talk about it later." Ji You agreed with this statement and prepared to start.
In an instant, sword energy continued to rise in the small room, and the strong breath caused the furnace where the flames were rising to roar.
And in this flowing spiritual energy, the young master's outer clothes and inner clothes suddenly fell off.
In a blink of an eye, only the bright yellow bellyband was left. While waving her hands and punching Ji You, she was carried to the bed with her snow-white body.
"Old Qiu and Kuang Cheng both said that you were always trying to give birth to a child for me on Lingjian Mountain. Even Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu said the same thing. Are you lying to me?"
"It's just for the sake of continuing the bloodline of Xuanjian Peak."
"Then why are you running?" Ji You couldn't help but look down at her beautiful phoenix eyes.
In response, he received a heavy punch mixed with powerful spiritual energy.
The dull noise continued to echo in the room, but fortunately, the main house and the east and west courtyards were separated by gardens and lakes, so they could let it go.
However, as they were fighting, she pulled open the clothes of the strange man in front of her, and the young master who was pressed under her suddenly stopped.
In the battle of Tiandao Festival, Ji You's meridians were the most seriously injured, but that doesn't mean he had no external injuries other than his meridians.
There was a long scar on his torn shoulder, and obvious claw marks on his abdomen.
"Among the six major immortal sects, only Lingjian Mountain has not yet reached the Immortal Realm. How can a small Master of the Wujiang Middle Realm defend the mountain?"
"He was afraid something might happen to you, so he went to kill Chu Xian."
"The Heavenly Dao Festival has begun, and the evil spirit is like the sea. This is almost a dead end. Even those close disciples are afraid to take part."
"Master Jian, my son-in-law tore open the Tiandao Sacrifice and killed Chu Xian in the midst of evil spirit. He was seriously injured and fell into a coma."
The description that Yan Shuyi had heard before at Lingjian Mountain kept ringing in her mind, and she suddenly bit her red lips.
She actually knew very well that no matter how dangerous some things were, they would only be described by others, but the murderous intent in them could really kill people instantly.
She naturally knew what it meant for a cultivator to get lost in the Heavenly Dao Festival, and she also knew how difficult it was to kill an opponent of equal combat power but without restraints in the midst of evil energy.
This kind of thing had almost no chance of survival, but he still jumped in.
But he has never liked the Immortal Sect, so the disaster facing the Immortal Sect might be a good thing for him.
Seeing that she suddenly stopped punching, Ji You looked down and saw that her eyes were focused on her wound, with a hint of heartache in her eyes, so she stopped moving for a while.
"It was just some minor injuries. I was almost healed when I woke up."
"Where is the most serious injury?"
"My meridians were sucked dry, and the intense deprivation caused them to shrink continuously, but I managed to survive in the end." Ji You held her snow-white feet that were raised in the air and said softly.
"This little disciple of Tianshu Academy does have some abilities." Yan Shuyi said indifferently.
Ji You narrowed his eyes and thought to himself that he only had a bellyband on him, which couldn't even cover his roundness, and how could he be so cool.
But just as he was secretly complaining, he felt his body, which was being resisted by Yan Shuyi's legs, suddenly slide down.
In the dim night, Master Xiaojian glanced to the side and couldn't help but quietly spread her knees.
You bastard...
The night is bright and the stars and the moon rotate.
The snow-white hands instantly tore the bedding into thousands of grooves, and the dangling feet suddenly curled up.
Then the bed began to shake.
The cold and arrogant fairy was tossed around, her sobs filled with the cries of a dog thief.
The night without lights is very long, especially in winter.
It gets dark from the hour of Xu until it gets light at the hour of Chen, which is a total of seven hours.
In such a long night, sleep is naturally the only option, otherwise there is nothing to do.
Moreover, in this era, kerosene was a rare commodity, more expensive than food, so naturally no one would be willing to light a lamp and sit idle, so people basically went to bed as soon as night fell.
But the wind and rain in the Jizhaizhu's house refused to stop, and the sound of puffing came one after another.
In an instant, a wave of floods broke through the dam, but the wind and rain continued.
After several times, the young judge, filled with shame and anger, began to regret it.
“You’re not well yet…!”
"Okay, warm-up is over."
"?"
"You bold disciple of the Heavenly Academy, you are not allowed to come here again..."
"What should we do then?"
Ji You looked at her seriously.
Yan Shuyi stood up with a sound of "boo", her tearful face showing a defensive expression, but she found that the dog thief was staring at her mouth.
After a moment of hesitation, the young master's eyes suddenly became murderous.
The temperature in Fengzhou became extremely cold after the beginning of winter. Snowflakes began to fall again in the second half of the night. Not only did the snow not stop in the early morning, it even showed a tendency to increase.
Qiu Zhong and the servants in the courtyard had gotten up early and were checking the underground fire passage in Jizhai following the thick smoke.
There were also children in the village playing in the snow.
Ji You was awakened by the noise in the front yard. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the snow-white master in his arms.
Immortal cultivators do not need to sleep for a long time. It is rare for them to sleep so soundly like this. The last time was when he was in the bamboo building in Danshan. He felt extremely comfortable all over.
It turns out that a man must have a wife.
Ji You murmured and sat up quietly.
As if sensing the noise, Yan Shuyi frowned slightly in his sleep and subconsciously wanted to come find him.
The moment she touched his arm, the uneasiness between her brows disappeared instantly, and she fell asleep peacefully again, like a cute cat.
Seeing this, Ji You slowed down his movements and waited until she fell asleep again before getting up. He reached out to pick up the bellyband and underwear on the ground and put them beside the bed. After washing and getting dressed, he walked out of the room.
Yan Shuyi couldn't help but come to him, changing his previous plan, but also brought new changes.
For example, the story of Master Chen.
Ji You found Lao Qiu in the front yard and asked him to send someone to Yuyang County to deliver the items from Master Chen's old village.
"Master Chen's old things? Does the young master know his whereabouts?"
"About the same."
After Ji You finished speaking, he added, "Also, I'd like to trouble Uncle Qiu to buy me a bed. When your young mistress wakes up, please place it on the west side of my room."
Old Qiu was startled when he heard the voice: "Sir, do you want to change your bed?"
"It's not about changing the bed, it's just about putting in an extra one."
After Ji You finished explaining everything, he asked for the key and went to Master Chen's residence in Ji Village.
Master Chen was the former headmaster of Lingjian Mountain. He was a good friend of the night watchman Cui Lang and kept watch for him after Cui Lang's death. This secret can explain a lot of things.
For example, when the Qingyun snowstorm occurred, Fengzhou transported grain out of the country under his orders. Someone reported that a man wielded a sword to cut through the endless wind and snow that night, clearing a path of a thousand miles for them.
This matter remained an unsolved mystery at the time, but now it seems that it was Master Chen who did it.
What is more crucial is the matter of "night".
Although in his speculation with Tsundere Ghost, he said that the night color refers to the greed caused by the fate of the immortal ruins, but so far there is no strong evidence to support this speculation.
Since Master Chen was the only one who had come into contact with "Night", he wanted to see if there were any clues in Master Chen's daily life.
After wandering around, he came to the small house on the west side of the backyard, adjacent to the school. Ji You unlocked the door and pushed it open.
A stale earthy smell hit me in the face.
He looked around and found that Master Chen lived a very simple life, with almost no practical things. The place was so empty that it seemed as if he had never lived there.
At the same time, as the sun rose higher and sunlight poured into the room, Yan Shu, whose eyelashes were slightly wet, woke up. He raised his head and rubbed his eyes, and then found that Ji You was gone.
She looked down at the ground and found that she was sleeping on a new set of bedding that had been changed at some point in time. The set from last night should have disappeared.
"You bastard..."
"Mian Shou..."
Yan Shuyi opened his mouth, then his face froze and he immediately narrowed his eyes. He put on his clothes and walked out of the yard.
It was still snowing lightly, and by this time a dense layer of crushed snow had formed in the yard, making it look pure white.
The young judge reached out and touched the railing of the corridor, then squatted down outside the ditch of the pond in the yard.
When she came, she brought all the necessary items with her and stored them all in her storage gourd.
While squatting, she took out a small brush and green salt from the storage gourd, and then began to clean her mouth, with the sword-like aura in her eyes undiminished.
"The judge didn't come back."
"How could I possibly come back? Last year in Shengjing, if we didn't live in the same courtyard, we would sneak over to spend the night there."
Behind the corridor on the west side of the pond, Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu were also washing up. When they saw their master, they heard a burst of crickets and thought that it was done.
If their son-in-law had not killed Chu Xian during the Tiandao Festival and left him in a coma, they might not have thought anything of it.
But after serving him personally for three months and having handled everything, they now felt that their master was extremely brave.
Ding Yao wiped her face with a handkerchief while thinking, then looked at Zhuo Wanqiu and said, "Did the Master say when he will return to the mountain?"
"No, but I don't think I need to ask now."
"?"
Zhuo Wanqiu looked up at her own master: "Every time our master comes to see the son-in-law, he usually waits until the end of the new year before considering leaving."
At this time, Yan Shu had also finished brushing his teeth. He washed off the salt grains with clean water and slowly stood up.
There were already quite a few people in the yard, moving back and forth between the front and back yards, and between the east and west yards.
Cao Jinsong, Wen Zhengxin, Ban Yangshu, Pei Ruyi... Everyone who saw Yan Shuyi would bow and receive a faint nod in response.
After washing up, he became the majestic little master again.
But at this moment, a series of "hey yo hey yo" sounds gradually came from the stone road from the front yard to the back yard.
Where the sound came from, a group of servants from Ji Village were carrying a large mahogany bed towards the backyard.
After stopping and starting several times, the big bed was gradually carried to the main room in the center.
Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu's attention was instantly drawn to the scene. They looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched the bed being carried into their brother-in-law's room.
The bed was broken yesterday. Do I need to change it now?
However, what surprised them was that after those people moved the bed in, they did not move the original bed out, but left empty-handed.
An extra bed?
Do we have to sleep in separate beds even if we share a room?
There was a hint of confusion in the eyes of both of them.
Ji You had already returned from Master Chen's place and was standing in front of the moon gate connecting the front and back yards.
Master Chen left very little behind, so he didn't find anything valuable at all.
He came to his senses, looked at the new bed through the door and stretched.
The high and mighty Master Jian of Lingjian Mountain is just a little water tiger. If there is no extra bed as a backup, he will not be able to sleep at night.
Under the light snow, Ji You looked at the smoke rising from the kitchen all around and gently hugged her shoulders.
The failure to reform the taxation system made everyone feel the rigidity and corruption of the world. This incident not only made Kuang Cheng disheartened and temporarily unwilling to return to Beijing, but also made him feel powerless.
Just as Ding Yao had said when he was questioned in the carriage, such an opportunity only comes once in a thousand years. If you miss it this time, you don’t know when the next one will come.
Moreover, this world is full of intrigues and evil intentions. The seemingly peaceful world is full of undercurrents, which makes people feel exhausted.
Therefore, if there is no such devastating disaster in the future, it would be nice to be able to stay in Fengzhou for a long time.
Have a baby with the arrogant ghost, and then wait until the Dan Sect closes the mountain.
Everyone gathered together, lived in seclusion in this remote place, and watched the children grow up. It was a beautiful scene that could only be seen in dreams.
Thinking of having a baby, Ji You couldn't help but turn his head and look towards the pond.
Separation of wet and dry... Yan Shuyi had just seen the process of adding the bed, so he naturally knew what he was going to do. So he looked at him with sword energy surrounding him, and his beautiful face was full of murderous intent.
I was caught yesterday and couldn't get away.
I will leave after a few days and never go to his room again.
She frowned slightly, feeling that the thief seemed to be still inside.
boom!!!!
A dull explosion sounded like thunder from the west, causing a continuous roar, shaking the tiles on the wall and making them tremble continuously.
Everyone in Ji Village frowned slightly, then headed out the door. The people of Fengzhou on the street stopped and looked towards Yunzhou, watching the raging sand and dust dancing wildly in the sky in the distant west.
At this time, as the fairy skirt fluttered, Yan Shu also rose into the air, above the clouds, and looked into the distance to the west with his spiritual consciousness.
Far away on the horizon, a dense army was seen moving southward like a black fog, pressing towards Fengzhou.
"Report!"
"The eastern front has been lost, and the barbarian army has encircled us!"
On the Youyun Plain where the sand is surging, countless soldiers are clutching their weapons and looking ahead on top of the makeshift defensive walls.
I saw that the barbarian soldiers were constantly rushing towards me, and there were countless tall and giant barbarians stepping forward in the dust, pressing down on the mountains and shaking them.
Without the northern city walls as a support, the human soldiers' strength was greatly reduced. The first round of defensive battles exhausted their vitality, and it was not easy for the barbarians and demons to rush thousands of miles.
Therefore, after the coalition forces forcibly invaded the two states of Youyun, although small-scale local battles continued, the main forces of both sides were actually resting.
But at this moment, they suddenly launched another strong attack.
In fact, this is not unexpected, or rather, the Zhenbei Army has been preparing for this matter for a long time.
Because winter is coming, with the arrival of the first snow, the north is getting colder and colder, which is extremely unfavorable for marching and fighting.
There is no doubt that the joint charge of the two tribes of barbarians and monsters is to completely capture the two states of Youyun before the arrival of winter and completely occupy two of the Nine States.
As the shouts of charge came, the gates of the defensive wall were pushed open, and countless human soldiers rushed to fight, instantly raising even larger waves of sand and dust.
"Send some food and supplies."
In front of the house, Ji Youyu looked at the endless wind and sand and the vaguely visible figure of the barbarian, then turned to Qiu Zhong who was standing next to him and said.
Qiu Zhong nodded: "I have already prepared a copy and it can be shipped out at any time."
"It's a blessing that all the people in Youyun and Youzhou have escaped, but will the two Yaoman tribes turn around and head towards Fengzhou later?" Cao Jinsong frowned slightly as he looked towards the west.
Ji You thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's hard to say, but even if they have such an idea, it should be after the beginning of spring. Winter is coming, and this should be the last battle of the year."
