Chapter II Human Affairs
The riots inside and outside the Iron River Valley gradually subsided under the suppression of the Iron River Mansion; the monks left behind were all staying in a safe area, asking around for information and asking what happened at noon.
But the Tiandun Tower was destroyed, and the transmission distance of the Tiandun Tower was only one or two miles away; the area of the Jingtu Platform that covers thousands of miles was completely lost, and even the elders of the Nine Sects had to run by legs if they wanted to understand the situation. It would take at least a few days for the news to reach the lower level monks.
Zuo Lingquan took his wives back to Shangguan Lingye's mansion, and was strange to other monks, so he couldn't walk around, so he gathered in the yard waiting for news.
It was not until dusk that the Iron Mansion lifted the martial law and allowed monks to move around and their anxiety was relieved.
The setting sun sets westward, and the fiery red afterglow shines on the snow in the courtyard.
Leng Zhu silently piled snowmen by the yard wall, and in the afternoon, five and a half were snowball-like balls.
For some reason, Tuanzi was a little arrogant than before, a little bit like "the tiger is not at home, Tuanzi is called the king; the sky is big and the earth is big, Tuanzi is the biggest". He walked around the snow with his eight-character horoscope, leaving a string of small footprints like bamboo leaves.
The other three women obviously don’t have so much leisure.
Tang Jingyan could feel Shangguan Lingye's emotions, so he was a little worried. He folded his hands around his waist and stared at Tuanzi in a daze.
Jiang Yi and Wu Qingwan's worries have slowly been suppressed, but new thoughts have arisen again.
After all, the two of them talked about serving the same husband in the morning, but the result was not yet reached.
Jiang Yi was wearing a long red hot dress and practicing martial arts in front of the dummy. Her eyes kept wandering on Wu Qingwan and Zuo Lingquan, and she wanted to speak but stopped several times.
Zuo Lingquan's single challenge consumed his true energy. In order to prevent accidents, he kept meditating under the eaves to refine energy and accumulate energy.
Wu Qingwan didn't dare to sit in front of Zuo Lingquan, but she didn't know where she should be. She could only find trouble for nothing and manage the fallen flowers in the yard. She was tall and graceful, looking like a diligent and virtuous female elder.
After the bell to lift the martial law rang, Wu Qingwan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and said:
"It should be fine, Jiang Yi, are you hungry?"
Jiang Yi and Leng Zhu have not yet entered the Ling Valley and still have to have a meal. Leng Zhu stood up and said:
"I'll go cook."
"You keep building a snowman. I'm fine anyway. I haven't cooked for Jiang Yi for a long time."
While Wu Qingwan was speaking, she walked towards the back house. When she passed by Zuo Lingquan, she gently rubbed Zuo Lingquan's back with her leg.
Zuo Lingquan had already finished his work, and naturally understood the meaning when he saw this. After a while, he also got up and came to the back house.
Although Shangguan Lingye's mansion was built in Tiele Mansion and belongs to the practice residence, immortals also have their own birth to drink milk and eat, and there is also a kitchen in the house.
The house has been uninhabited for many years, and it is estimated that smoke has not risen in nearly eighty years. Jiang Yi only lived here for a few days before the kitchen was cleaned up again.
The afterglow of the sunset shone through the window and spread in the neat and clean kitchen. Wu Qingwan, wearing a white dress, sorted out the vegetables and meat prepared by Leng Zhu in front of the desk, and looked out of the window from time to time.
Zuo Lingquan came to the kitchen behind the mansion. As soon as he entered the door, Wu Qingwan put down the kitchen knife, warm and moist cheeks with a little helplessness, and said softly:
"Ling Quan, what should I do? Jiang Yi...she..."
His words were a little ashamed, and he felt like a little woman caught in bed.
Zuo Lingquan didn't understand why, so he asked:
"What's wrong with Jiang Yi?"
Wu Qingwan Qiushui looked back with self-blame and guilt in her eyes. Seeing that Jiang Yi didn't follow him, she said Jiang Yi's words during the day, and then said:
"Jiang Yi got the martial arts and immediately thought of me and asked me to practice with you. After all, I am her nominal aunt, but she secretly practiced with you in advance without telling her...Secretly practicing. In comparison, I am not worthy of being her aunt, and I feel like a fox that robs men in the world..."
After listening to the passing, Zuo Lingquan shook his head and said:
"At that time, Senior Wu obtained the martial arts, and the above said that he could only preach the Taoist couple, otherwise he would be punished by God. You were afraid that something would happen, so you passed it to me first, and then passed it to Jiang Yi through my hand, not intentionally concealing it."
Wu Qingwan glanced at Zuo Lingquan, hesitated for a moment, and said bluntly:
"You can't tell that I'm pretending? I don't have any thoughts about you. Can I run into your room for a scroll of martial arts? You can't tell what I mean, can I really touch me?"
Zuo Lingquan had already seen it, but this was the first time Wanwan admitted it personally. He smiled and held Qingwan's hand.
Wu Qingwan took the time to open her hand, turned around, leaving Zuo Lingquan with a side face:
"I originally wanted to use this excuse to deceive myself, but Jiang Yi treats me with sincerity. If I still lie to her, it would be too unreasonable. I knew you were her fiancé, and I was thinking about you when I was in Qihuang Valley, but I was sorry for her... But I want to tell Jiang Yi that I have liked you for a long time and I have to stay with you in front of her. Even if she doesn't blame me, I will not have the shame to see her in the future."
"I'm a man, let me explain to Jiang Yi."
"No, I was seducing you at the beginning, cough... I forced you, I don't move, and you don't dare to move if you have the heart. This is my responsibility, I have to take it myself, so how can you take the blame?"
Zuo Lingquan spread his hands gently: "Wanwan, you dare not say it, and you don't let me say it, what should I do?"
Wu Qingwan just didn't know what to do, so she pulled Zuo Lingquan over to discuss, but after discussing, she found that there was nothing she could do.
"We must confess to Jiang Yi truthfully, otherwise I will not have the shame to continue to seek immortality and return to the secular world. But I have to think about the time to confess. Now I go out and say it directly. Jiang Yi doesn't blame me in my heart, and I can't get over the face. I have to find a way for her..."
Wu Qingwan thought about it, moved slightly, stood on tiptoe, leaned into Zuo Lingquan's ear, and whispered:
"You said this is OK..."
Zuo Lingquan listened carefully for a moment, frowned, and looked at Wanwan strangely...—
After a table of food was ready, it was already night.
Most of the people in the family didn't have to eat, only Jiang Yi and Leng Zhu sat opposite each other on the round table, and the dumplings were squatting in the middle, waiting for the food to be served.
Wu Qingwan was not easy to face Jiang Yi because of the fact that she was serving the same husband, so she went back to the house alone after cooking.
Zuo Lingquan brought the hearty dishes to the round table and put them down. He also put a small teacup for the dumpling as bowls. Then he went to the corridor outside the door and said:
"Yan'er, do you want to eat something?"
When Jiang Yi heard this title, her eyes glared slightly, and the chopsticks she had just picked up were put down again.
Seeing this, Tuanzi quickly rubbed Jiang Yi's hand with her chubby head, probably saying, "It's important to feed birds, what do they do?"
In the veranda of the courtyard, Tang Jingwen, wearing a warm yellow pleated skirt, sat on the side of the beauty in the mahogany texture, with her hands supporting her cheeks and frowned.
Hearing Zuo Lingquan's shout, Tang Jingyan came back to his senses and said:
"I'm not hungry, you can eat."
Zuo Lingquan didn't have to eat. He came to the beauty in the corridor to sit down, looked at Tang Jingyan's face, and asked:
"What's wrong? I haven't seen you talk for an afternoon."
Tang Jingxian sighed and said, "I'm fine. It seems that there is something wrong with the dead woman. Well... I'm very upset, and I feel like I'm getting angry. I feel like... I want to beat you to death."?
Zuo Lingquan was stunned: "Bow me to death? Why?"
Tang Jingwen shook her head: "I just use an example. I don't know who she wants to hit. Anyway, it's very fierce, so I want to hit people too. You'd better stay away from me, otherwise I won't be able to hold back later, and I'll be a widow after the fire goes on. I'll cry."
“…”
Zuo Lingquan was so amused by this cold joke that he really didn't dare to be careless. He got up and went to the yard to figure out what the ancestor Shangguan was doing now.
Because there is no specific information, Zuo Lingquan could not understand it.
However, as the sky was dark, the sky was lit up, and a pleasure boat flew from the sky into the Iron Mansion's sect protection formation.
Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan quickly walked to the shore of the next lake to wait.
The lit-up pleasure boat quickly descended from the air, and the snowman on the bow was still there, and it was revealed in detail, looking like a woman's white ice sculpture.
The graceful lady in a golden phoenix dress, with a shawl on her shoulder, stood beside the snowman, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, her clear eyes were a little clear, and she looked in a bad mood.
Zuo Lingquan stood on the shore of the lake, and waited for the pleasure boat to fall into the lake, and raised his hand and bowed;
"Senior Lingye, what happened during the day?"
Shangguan Lingye floated up and fell silently in front of Zuo Lingquan, sighing:
"I heard from Senior Brother Baye that there are overseas monks with unknown origins that have attacked the barren mountains, and the terrace suffered heavy losses. Now the great masters have arrived at the barren mountains and turned thousands of miles around into forbidden areas. No outsiders are allowed to enter and exit, and there is no information inside. I guess the thing under the barren mountains has gone wrong."
Zuo Lingquan was half-understood and frowned:
"It's serious?"
"It seems that even the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou has come here, and the matter must be quite good, but it seems that it is still under control. These major matters related to peace in the continent are all handled by the Lord. If we can't get involved, it's useless to worry about it."
Shangguan Lingye withdrew his gaze from the south and looked at Zuo Lingquan:
"We can only worry about the mortal world. Today's movement is too great, and many small countries in the Southern Wilderness have been affected, and there are earth dragons turning over, and casualties are unknown. The Great Dan Dynasty is on the other side of the barren mountain, and the territory is too small. Nine Phoenixes can destroy the country with one wing. The news cannot be spread at present, and I don't know what the specific situation is."
Zuo Lingquan's parents and relatives were all in the Great Dan. He was shocked when he heard this. He turned around and jumped onto the pleasure boat and said:
"I'll go back and take a look and borrow my senior's boat."
The reason why Shangguan Lingye came back was to pick up Zuo Lingquan, she said:
"The news in the south is not smooth and the situation is not clear. It is difficult to go there rashly. I have to check the disaster situation in the surrounding countries and go there with you."
Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan naturally did not refuse. Qihuanggu and Jiang's royal family were both in the Great Dan. Wu Qingwan and Jiang Yi must have been worried. He got off the boat and called a few women, and galloped south by boat...—
