Chapter 81
For a long time, no one responded, and no one cheered. Xu Qi ‘an sat at the table and waited for a long time before he was sure that these guys had gone offline.
That’s so impolite ... Why didn’t you tell me you were going offline? A bunch of uneducated netizens. He cursed in his heart.
After putting away the Jade Mirror and locking the door, Xu Qi ‘an blew out the candle and lay on the bed, letting her thoughts wander.
The Heaven and Earth Society was a relatively loose organization. Members kept in touch with each other, but they were also on guard against each other.
This was understandable. After all, they were scattered all over the world, and they might not even be from the great Feng dynasty. It was normal for them to be a little wary of each other.
The only benefit he could see at the moment was information sharing.
This was very important.
Wasn’t this just a chat platform? if they could chat online, perhaps there would be an opportunity to chat offline in the future?
No. 2 was in Yunzhou, which was too far away. His status should not be low. Otherwise, how could he check the household registration of all the prefectures and counties?
Number one is also in the capital and is a person with real status and status. He’s stronger than a second-rate like me and is also the person I should be most wary of.
Lu ... He warned me not to respond to No. 9 before, saying that he was also in the capital.
Number one and number Lu are the ones I have to pay attention to from now on. The other members are separated by mountains and rivers. Even if they know my identity, it won’t be a big problem because there is no conflict of interest.
Number one and number Lu were the kind of online friends who would do what they said.
But on the other hand, if I can reach a friendly deal with them, these two people are close to me and can help me solve my urgent needs.
The others were not online yet.
‘I feel like I’m playing a Werewolf game. Interesting, interesting ...’
As he thought about it, he fell asleep.
.....
The night was like water, and the moonlight was like frost.
In the cold wind, the lights of Lingbao temple were bright in the dark.
Ever since the chief Daoist of the human sect was made the state preceptor, their base camp was moved to the Imperial City. The current Emperor had built a magnificent Daoist temple for the human sect.
A luxurious sandalwood carriage stopped outside the temple. Wei Yuan, who was wearing a green cloak, stepped down from the carriage.
The Daoist boy guarding the door welcomed him in respectfully.
After passing through the courtyard, corridor, and garden, they arrived at a spacious quiet room.
After the child left, Wei Yuan knocked on the door.
The lattice door opened automatically, and a cold voice came, “”Duke Wei, I’m honored by your presence.”
Wei Yuan didn’t care about the sarcasm in his words. He stepped over the threshold and entered the room. The room was cold and the sandalwood on the table was fragrant.
There was a screen separating the front hall and the ceiling. Behind the screen, a graceful figure could be seen meditating.
Wei Yuan’s expression was cold and his tone was cold, “”What happened in the earth sect?”
It was impossible to tell the age of the female state preceptor’s voice. It was clear and melodious like a young girl’s voice, but also gentle and moving like a mature woman’s, ”
“Duke of Wei, you know everything about astronomy and geography, why do you need to ask for help?”
Wei Yuan shook his head. I just scolded you back then, “Only women and villains are difficult to raise, so you’re jealous and hate today?”
The person behind the screen was silent.
“The night watchman has a fragment of the Book of the Earth. Do you want it?”
“That’s the earth sect’s thing.”
Wei Yuan nodded and turned to leave.
When they left the spirit Treasure Temple, Yang Yan, who was waiting by the carriage, greeted them.”Foster father, did you manage to find out anything?”
“The female Dao leader doesn’t want to say, but something must have happened to the earth sect,” Wei Yuan shook his head.
After entering the carriage, Wei Yuan put his cold hands close to the beast head stove. After his body had warmed up, he said in a deep voice, ”
“These years, natural disasters have occurred frequently and man-made disasters have occurred everywhere. The major cultivation systems had also revealed their problems one after another.
“I have a feeling that something is going to happen.”
Yang Yan frowned. father, are you overthinking? that day, we went to the Imperial astronomer. The supervisor said that everything was normal.
“You can’t trust the words of those who pry into the secrets of the heavens,” Wei Yuan sighed.
After a pause, he said with a serious expression, “”Investigate the current situation of the earth sect at all costs.”
Yang Yan: ” the earth sect’s disciples have always been low-key. They’ve always been elusive ...
“I’ve said it,” Wei Yuan said,”at all costs.”
It was rare to see his foster father so serious. Yang Yan lowered his head.”Yes.”
......
Early in the morning, Xu lingying, who was wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, held a dead branch in her hand and chased a group of young geese like her with her short legs.
Seeing her brother walk over, Xu lingying put her hands on her hips and said proudly, “”Big brother, big brother, I’m already invincible among my peers.”
Xu Qi ‘an looked at her. so stupid.
it’s not stupid to the point of invincibility, ” Xu Ling explained anxiously. it’s invincibility.
...
As she spoke, she waved the dead branch a few times, indicating that she was invincible in fighting.
“My sister said that none of the children my age in the residence can beat me. I’m the best,” the little boy explained.
Because you’re the only child in the residence ... “I’m not lying to you,” Xu Qi ‘an said.
Xu lingying was happy. On the way to the living room to eat with her brother, she took a step forward, not recognizing anyone.
At the dining table, his aunt elegantly ate her breakfast and casually said, “”Master, lingyue seems to have reached the age of marriage.”
A girl from an ordinary family could be married at the age of fourteen. The Xu family was a wealthy family, so they were not in a hurry to marry off their daughter. However, seventeen years old was indeed the age to be married.
Because if she didn’t get married after the age of eighteen, she would be an old lady. An 18-year-old girl was still in her most tender stage.
Xu lingyue raised her head at once, and her watery and lustrous eyes were filled with stubbornness.”Mother, I don’t want to get married yet.”
“Is this a question of whether you want to or not?” the aunt’s beautiful eyes narrowed as she rebuked.
Xu lingyue was not convinced. She pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth were as exquisite as a carving. second brother hasn’t even married a sister-in-law yet.
Xu niannian was shot in the knee.
...
Her aunt had her own reasons and said,”Even if your second brother wants to get married, he will have to wait until after the spring examination. Let’s settle your marriage first.”
Xu lingyue puffed up her cheeks and didn’t say anything.
Second uncle Xu nodded. lingyue has indeed reached the marriageable age. Sigh, time really flies. In the blink of an eye, she has grown up.
Xu lingying, who was immersed in the food, heard this. He raised his little face and shouted, ”
“Big sister has grown up. Big sister is a troublemaker.”
The family: “??? ”
Xu Qi ‘an’s scalp went numb and he forcefully changed the topic.”Even if lingyue is going to marry someone, she should marry someone as outstanding as me, your big brother,”
His aunt snorted in disdain.
Are you looking for trouble again ... it’s because aunt married my second uncle, who is as outstanding as me, that she can live a life of luxury, ” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.
The plump and beautiful aunt could not refute this sentence and glared hard at her unlucky nephew.
Second uncle Xu was very pleased with his nephew’s flattery. He smiled and said, “”Madam, do you have any candidates in mind?”
“Take your time to pick, didn’t I have to discuss this with you?”
Xu niannian looked at his family and announced, “”From tomorrow onwards, I have to return to the Yun Lu Institute to prepare for the fall quarter examinations.”
After stepping into the cultivation realm, the great scholar Zhang Shen had summoned him back to the Yun Lu Academy. He taught him with words and actions while urging him to prepare for the spring examination next year.
His gaze calmly swept across the crowd, as if waiting for everyone’s reaction.
His aunt immediately picked up some lean meat for her son. “You’re good for life.”
Only then did Xu niannian nod in satisfaction. okay, ” he said.
After breakfast, Xu Qi ‘an was about to leave the mansion when he heard the girl’s clear and gentle voice behind him.”Big brother ...”
Turning around, he saw a slim and elegant girl with exquisite facial features.
“I don’t want to get married,” Xu lingyue said, feeling wronged.
Xu Qi ‘an thought for a while and grinned.”Later I will talk to ciold and second uncle. When did it become your mother, a woman, who can decide on family matters?”
“Xu ningyan!” Her aunt had appeared behind Xu lingyue without her knowing. She had her hands on her hips and her eyebrows were raised.
The beautiful woman was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and her face was full of anger.”Little rascal, repeat what you just said.”
Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t be bothered with her and ran away.
.....
Xu Qi ‘an galloped to the watchman’s Yamen and went straight to noble spirit building.
It was this Gong again ... After the guard informed him, he let Xu Qi ‘an enter the building with a surprised look.
Ordinary gongs were not qualified to report to the Duke of Wei because they still had silver gongs and golden gongs above their heads.
Lord Wei would not summon copper Gong either.
However, the treatment of this new copper Gong was completely different. Whenever he came, the Duke of Wei would summon him.
On the seventh floor, Xu Qi ‘an entered the tea room and saw da Qing Yi standing in the observation Hall.
“What’s the matter this time?” The chief eunuch had his back to him and did not turn around.
He wanted to confess everything that happened last night. He had the night watchman to back him up, and he had Wei Yuan to rely on. There was no need for him to bear the consequences in private.
It would lower the risk and win father Wei’s trust.
