Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 144 Family Banquet (Big update of 10,000 words)

The closed stone path is small and quiet.

Zuo Lingquan sat cross-legged with his back against the stone wall, breathing evenly and refining the surrounding spiritual energy.

Tang Jingxun had nothing to do. At first he was still staring at Zuo Lingquan, but Qi Refining took too long, and finally he slowly lay down, using Zuo Lingquan's legs as a pillow, and closed his eyes to sleep to pass the boring time.

After several days of cultivation, the white fur on Tuanzi gradually recovered, but his body shape has not returned. He is a big soft ball and his weight has also increased a little. Tang Jingxun is not used to squatting on Tang Jingxun's chest. , threw the dumpling aside in disgust.

Unable to fly in a small space, Tuanzi was bored and turned into a white free-range chicken, walking around the two of them and playing with lighting beads as balls.

Gulu gulu——

The sound of the lighting beads rolling continued for unknown length of time.

Zuo Lingquan's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, feeling his own situation - he spent nearly a hundred white jade bahts, and the True Qi in his body had been replenished; although "Qi Yang Jue" could not remove the impurities too cleanly, the refining The True Qi is not pure enough, but it is enough for now. I just need to go back and refine it again with Wanwan.

In addition to supplementing True Qi, there has also been some progress in cultivation.

The goal of practicing at the second level of Linggu is to first open up the seven acupoints of the 'Yinwei Meridian', and then open up the 'Neiguan' at the intersection of the eight meridians, which will even make it to the third level of Linggu.

Zuo Lingquan has spent fourteen years in the past, squeezing and tempering his body to the extreme, and the toughness of his meridians is far beyond comparison. Now faced with the expansion and stabilization of acupoints in this Body Refining stage, he can't hit the bottleneck at all; he drills back and forth underground. After two moderate fights, coupled with some solid nourishment, three of them have been cleared so far, which can be regarded as touching the threshold of the mid-level of the second level.

After the surging True Qi in his body calmed down, Zuo Lingquan breathed a sigh of relief and looked down.

Tang Jingxuan was leaning on his lap, already asleep, with her cheek facing his belly to hide from the light. Her gentle breath touched her skin through her clothes, and she could clearly feel the warmth.

Because she is lying on her side, the most conspicuous thing about Tang Jingxun is the curve under her waist, which is like a big round peach, showing thrilling tension and beauty under the thin skirt.

Zuo Lingquan glanced at it and unknowingly remembered the rainy night when Linhefang suffered a fire.

Not a blade of grass grows...

Now that the window paper has been pierced, Zuo Lingquan did not shy away from his less serious gaze. After admiring it carefully for a moment, he raised his hand and rubbed it under Tang Jingxuan's waist.

The touch is so good...

"Hmm~..."

Tang Jingxuan frowned slightly, feeling safe leaning against Zuo Lingquan. He hadn't woken up yet, but just muttered something like:

"Tuanzi, I'll beat you again..."

"grumble?"

Tuanzi looked up innocently and saw Zuo Lingquan smiling at the corners of his eyes and still rubbing them. He was afraid of taking the blame, so he quickly jumped on Tang Jingxun's waist and stepped on it to remind his master.

It was so noisy that I couldn't sleep.

Tang Jingxuan woke up and looked around blankly, still a little confused.

Zuo Lingquan had already stopped his hand, sat in front of him with a calm expression, and said softly:

"Did Tuanzi wake you up? Just sleep a little longer, don't worry."

"grumble?!"

Tuanzi opened his beak, a little unbelievable, but after stuffing a piece of dried fruit into his mouth, he jumped aside obediently and admitted his crime.

Tang Jingxuan sat up and touched his buttocks first. After his thoughts were completely clear, he frowned and said:

"This little broken bird keeps messing around every time he sleeps. He'll stew it when he gets fatter."

Naturally, Zuo Lingquan would not help Tuanzi wash away his grievances. He helped Tang Jingxuan stand up and started digging the collapsed cave with his sword:

"The shape of the dumplings didn't change before. They grew up after eating that ball of earth's core fire. If they want to continue to grow, they probably have to find the treasures of heaven and earth that belong to the five elements of fire. I just don't know what they will grow into in the end. It's possible. Really turned into a phoenix.”

Tang Jingxun didn't believe it: "Have you ever seen a phoenix that grows into a ball? The phoenix is ​​an auspicious beast. With its naughty and mischievous temperament, it is as big as a mountain. It can crush countless people to death if it rolls around. , turning into a phoenix is ​​probably also a disaster star."

Tuanzi shook his head like a rattle, obviously not agreeing with this statement. Unfortunately, his usual style has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even Zuo Lingquan thought it was possible.

Chachacha——

The boring and complicated mining work continued. This time, we had to dig at least thirty feet to get through the collapsed stone cave, which took a long time.

Tang Jingxun had no tools and had nothing to do, so he began to try the fire method again.

But this time she already had experience. She didn't use all her strength directly, and did a 'Charcoal Grilled Prince Consort'. She just raised her fingers, condensed the True Qi in her body, and a small flame appeared on her fingertips.

Zuo Lingquan turned around to check and found that the flames were different from the flames he used last time when he used the fire technique - it was no longer golden yellow, but turned red. It looked similar to the flames of the red-haired old immortal, and the temperature had also dropped a lot. It no longer has the terrifying power of burning the soul, but it is still much more powerful than ordinary flames.

Zuo Lingquan was a little puzzled: "What's going on? Could it be that if you eat the fire under the ground, the previous golden fire will disappear? It's a pity, the golden fire looks much more powerful."

Tang Jingxun raised his left hand, condensed True Qi again, and another golden flame emerged:

"It's still there. You can use both."

"That's good, but the more powerful something is, the easier it is to attract people's mouth. In the future, don't show it in front of people easily. When you encounter enemies, try to destroy the corpse as much as possible, so as not to be discovered."

Tuanzi saw his master showing off his flames, so he stood on his shoulder and took a sip.

call--

The flames spurted out were also earth core fire, about two fingers long, but it still felt like they were not of much use.

The two of them exchanged their cultivation experiences like this. After digging for an unknown amount of time, they finally dug through the collapsed cave and returned to the stratum where they were being hunted.

Zuo Lingquan packed up the treasures he had brought with him, put on a little disguise, and walked out of the cave with its nine twists and turns.

When they came to the entrance, they found that the passage destroyed by the talisman had been dug up. Someone should have come in to check it, but it was unclear whether it was the ambush accomplice or Yexiu. After climbing out of the big gap in Luohun Abyss, the interior of the abyss is still filled with mist, but the sun in the sky can be seen vaguely, but it is not known what time it has been.

After Zuo Lingquan returned to the ground, he first used the Tiandun card to report safety to Qingwan and the others, then hid his tracks and turned back in the direction of Linyuan Port, paying attention to whether there were ambushes on the way.

Being careful all the way, Zuo Lingquan thought that no one would notice, but when he climbed up the mountain wall of Luohunyuan and was about to find the white crane that carried people back to the Fairy House Market, he found a man standing on the hillside where the white crane was parked. A bearded man wearing armor and holding a large shield, with a sign from the Demon Suppression Department hanging on his waist.

The house Jiang Yi bought was right next door to the Detective Department, and Zuo Lingquan was very familiar with this outfit. They were strangers, and he had no intention of going to greet Bai He. He took Tang Jingxuan and prepared to find a place with few people to wait for Bai He.

But what I didn't expect was that after seeing him, the sturdy man with beard walked over quickly and bowed his hand in the distance:

"Your Excellency, you are Lord Zuo, the commander of the Imperial Guards of the Great Dan Dynasty?"

The stature of the strong man was very exaggerated, standing in front of him like a city wall. Zuo Lingquan visually estimated that he was over two meters tall.

The two countries have maintained diplomatic relations, and when they heard each other's worldly status, Zuo Lingquan felt slightly less alert and stepped forward and said:

"Exactly, sir?"

The brawny man walked up to him with a friendly expression on his face: "I am Situ Zhenzhen, the deputy commander of the Anti-Monster Division, one of the twenty-four guards under the Second Saint, and I am in charge of the affairs of the immortal families around the capital."

Zuo Lingquan saw that he was a subordinate of the Crown Princess and bowed his hands:

"It turns out to be Mr. Situ. Nice to meet you."

Situ Shock's expression was warm, but his heart was very nervous. After all, if Zuo Lingquan was really the ancestor's disciple, he would be called Junior Martial Uncle according to his seniority. If he said something wrong, Zuo Lingquan would feel dissatisfied, and he would have to live on thin ice for hundreds of years. . He raised his hand to signal Zuo Lingquan to the white crane ferrying people over, and said with a kind smile:

"This time, the official's reception was not good, which frightened Mr. Zuo. Fortunately, Mr. Zuo is safe and sound..."

Tang Jingxun's expression was a little weird when she heard this humble title and words, but she is a woman who grew up in the market, so she habitually walked behind Zuo Lingquan at such times, so she would not interrupt her.

Zuo Lingquan also felt awkward. Seeing how humble the other party was, he cupped his hand again:

"Master Situ is too polite. We are all practitioners, so we should follow the rules of the practice. Senior, just call me by my name."

Situ Shock quickly waved his hand: "You can't call me senior, um... I, a cultivator from Tiezhu Mansion, have always been straightforward, so I don't care too much about it. If you call me Shock, I'll just call you Mr. Zuo."

Zuo Lingquan was not polite when he saw this and said with a smile:

"Brother Shock, you're welcome."

After chatting for a few words, the three of them got on the white crane that ferryed people, and only Zuo Lingquan was on the back of the white crane.

When the white crane spread its wings and flew away, Situ turned his wrist in shock, took out a bronze mirror, and said:

"Young Master Zuo was ambushed in Luohunyuan. It was done by merchants in Linyuan Port. The concubine has already punished him severely according to the rules."

Zuo Lingquan and Tang Jingxuan frowned slightly and looked at the bronze mirror in Situ Zhenzhen's hand, only to see a scene in the bronze mirror - Situ Zhenzhen holding a magic weapon and beating Chen Wenqiu in the Royal Beast Studio.

Zuo Lingquan saw this scene and finally understood the background of the seven daring miscellaneous fish. Although he was ambushed, to be honest, the impact on him was not as good as the immortal jump he encountered in Nanhuang, and he felt nothing at all.

Seeing that the shop owner was beaten to the point where his ribs were broken and his mouth was full of blood, his foundation was obviously injured. It is estimated that the Tao of Longevity will be greatly reduced in the future, so he said:

"In my Great Dan, monks kill people and seize treasures like a lion fighting a rabbit. He seems to have a high level of cultivation. If I do it by myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of the underground alive."

"A monk from a family has been pampered and blessed by his elders since childhood. It is difficult to understand the truth of this kind of life."

After Situ shook the interrogation record, he turned the bronze mirror again, and the screen changed, and a family's ancestral hall appeared.

In the ancestral hall, more than a dozen men, old and young, bowed neatly to the end; the elder standing in the middle, with tears in his eyes, sadly stated what happened in Linyuan Port, and promised Jiuzong that he would never do it again in the future. If you commit the crime again, you will get a 30% discount on all the shopfronts of Yushou Zhai in the territory of the Nine Sects in the future, etc.

Tang Jingxun was a little surprised, and said, "If you dare to confess this matter, how will his family do business if it gets out?"

Situ shocked and put away the bronze mirror, shook his head and said: "For the sake of trying to kill someone and seize the treasure, I want to give them some dignity and let them end it on their own. If they don't accept the punishment, someone will help them respect themselves, and then everything will be over." The clan is removed from the spiritual path."

"Are you so strict about killing people and seizing treasures?"

Situ shocked and shook his head: "The jurisdiction of the Nine Sects is so large, no one can control so much. The Xianjia Shop has a special status, and it must be honest to prevent the jurisdiction of the Nine Sects from falling into turmoil, so there is iron Rules: As long as other monks leave the area where the use of weapons is prohibited, they can only rely on themselves. The major dynasties only care about matters that harm mortals, and they have nothing to do with the affairs of the immortal family. "

Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly. Seeing that Situ Zhenzhen had already dealt with the law according to the rules, he didn't say any more, and cupped his hands and said:

"Thank you brother Zhen Zhen for upholding justice for us. If you hadn't found out, I wouldn't have known that there were still people behind the scenes."

"I act according to the rules and I don't deserve any thanks."

Situ Shock ran over to say this, just wanting to show courtesy in front of Zuo Lingquan and enhance mutual friendship. Now that he finished speaking, he thought for a while and said again:

"Luo Hun Yuan is the place where Qi Refining Realm monks hang out. Your cultivation level is not low, and it is too slow to earn immortal money there."

Zuo Lingquan felt the same way, working hard in the Abyss of Lost Souls, the rewards were not directly proportional to the risks, after meeting that fire bird, he didn't dare to go into the mine easily again. Seeing what Situ Zhenshao said, he asked:

"Brother Zhen Zhen has connections? I'm new to Dayan, so I really don't know about these things."

Situ Zhenzhen raised his hand and patted the sign of the Anti-Monster Division on his waist: "The territory of the Great Yan Dynasty was too vast, and there were no sects in many places. Demons, ghosts, and wild cultivators were rampant in the surrounding areas. It was impossible to escape just by relying on the dynasty's offerings; the Anti-Monster Division would Some jobs are sent out and handed over to monks outside. After the job is completed, all the proceeds belong to you, and you can get paid when you come back. If you want to earn money from gods, you can go to the Demon Hunting Department and register your name."

Zuo Lingquan didn't understand these things yet, so he nodded with a smile:

"Thank you, brother Zhen Zhen, for your pointers. My house is right next door to Ji Yaosi. I'll go and have a look tomorrow."

…

——

Zuo Lingquan and Situ Zhenzhen turned back together, and only left outside the Yamen of the Yamen, and took Tang Jingxun back home.

At dusk, lights were lit in Sanjin's courtyard, there was very little smoke from the kitchen in the backyard, and there was a faint smell of wine among the houses.

It was the end of June when they went to Luohunyuan, and it was almost mid-July when they came back. Although the time was not long, for Wu Qingwan and Jiang Yi, it was a long separation than a wedding.

Zuo Lingquan went to Luohunyuan. Although he experienced some twists and turns, the harvest was not to be underestimated. The various rare materials dug up were sold for at least ten thousand white jade baht, and the income was only less than that of slaughtering Chi. Fa Laoxian be a little smaller.

With some belongings in my pocket, the originally tight days are naturally a little more comfortable.

When Zuo Lingquan came back, he went to the Xianjia Market to buy several jars of Taohuatan's specialty 'Peach Blossom Immortal Brew'. It was a genuine century-old brew with excellent taste and efficacy, and the price was naturally not cheap.

Three people in the family have entered Linggu, but Jiang Yi and Leng Zhu still have to eat. Zuo Lingquan bought wine and Jiang Yi took advantage of the opportunity to hold a 'celebration banquet' to reward Zuo Lingquan who had worked hard outside for half a month. .

Several people were busy in the kitchen, and when it got dark, a sumptuous dinner was placed on the round table in the main room.

Zuo Lingquan sat beside Jiang Yi, picked up the flagon to pour wine for several girls, and talked about various experiences in the ground:

"...I just walked over, and in a flash, seven burly men appeared, all of them fierce and fierce, and they chased me for four or five miles with knives in hand..."

"Aren't you very aggressive when you hit me? Why are you so cowardly when you come out?"

"Why are you coward? I saw through that their strength was low and they were just trying to lure the enemy deeper. When they had no way to go, I raised my hand and hit them all with a few swords. The sword energy was so strong that it collapsed the cave... …”

Jiang Yi was sitting at the main seat wearing a red dress, listening to Zuo Lingquan's story, holding the enlarged dumpling in her hand, looking at it over and over, and squeezing it to test the feel from time to time.

Wu Qingwan was very interested in refining weapons. She had been holding the Linglong Pavilion since she came back, looking through the materials inside one by one, comparing them with illustrated books to identify what they were and how much they were worth.

Tang Jingxun has become very embarrassed since the embarrassing incident happened underground. He sat opposite Jiang Yi like a virtuous little daughter-in-law, glancing at Zuo Lingquan from time to time.

Seeing Zuo Lingquan chatting and laughing like a normal person and not mentioning kissing her, Tang Jingxuan gradually became a little anxious. After waiting for a while, she picked up the wine glass, took a sip of the not-so-spicy Peach Blossom Fairy Brew to strengthen her courage, and took the initiative to say:

"Yes, it was thrilling when we were underground. The cave collapsed at that time. I was so frightened that I refused to let go of Xiao Zuo. I'm embarrassed to say that."

Wu Qingwan took a sip from the small wine glass and glanced at Jiang Yi with her Qiushui eyes.

Jiang Yi was playing with the dumplings, she blinked her eyes when she heard this, but she didn't show any jealousy, instead she smiled and said:

"It's such a dangerous situation, I'll hold it if it's me, Miss Tang doesn't have to worry about it."

Tang Jingxun hooked the hair around her ears, a little embarrassed:

"I took the initiative to hug me, so I didn't care about it. Xiao Zuo may have misunderstood, um... maybe he was also afraid, so he hugged me and kissed me... even on the mouth."

Slap——

As soon as these words came out, the room became quiet.

Leng Zhu, who was secretly picking up vegetables for Zuo Lingquan, accidentally dropped his chopsticks on the table, his eyes widened a bit.

Wu Qingwan was not surprised, she just looked back and forth while drinking her own wine.

Jiang Yi's expression froze slightly, and Ru Xing's eyes showed a sour taste, but unexpectedly, there was nothing unexpected—after all, Zuo Lingquan had an ambiguous relationship with Tang Jingxun when she was in Great Dane, and she still had an affair with Tang Jingxun when she came out. In front of him, Jiang Yi was not stupid, she was already mentally prepared.

Jiang Yi was silent for a while, picked up the wine glass, looked at Zuo Lingquan in a blink of an eye, and said with a smile:

"Zuo Lingquan, you were also frightened at that time, Miss Tang who just kissed?"

Zuo Lingquan filled Jiang Yi’s wine glass:

"I can't help it... hiss——"

Before he could finish speaking, the embroidered shoes stepped on his toes and twisted them hard a few times.

Jiang Yi stepped on Zuo Lingquan's toes, her expression was as calm as usual, she raised her wine glass in a ladylike manner, and made a toast to Tang Jingxun:

"Zuo Lingquan has such a temperament, and he will be a family when he comes out. Miss Tang, don't make things difficult. If you don't mind, you and I will be like sisters in the future."

Seeing that the princess was not angry, Tang Jingxun secretly relaxed a little, raised her wine glass to salute:

"As long as sister Jiang Yi doesn't blame him."

? ?

Sister Jiang Yi?

Jiang Yi's delicate cheeks were slightly stiff, and she sat up a little bit, feeling that this little fox was a little out of character.

But her cultivation base is not as high as Tang Jingxun's, and she is not as old as Tang Jingxun's. She wants to call herself a sister, but she can't seem to find a suitable reason...

What can I do...

Zuo Lingquan doesn’t even talk to him...

Wu Qingwan, who is an aunt, knows Jiang Yi's temperament best. Seeing Jiang Yi's defeat in less than three sentences, she quickly smoothed things over and said:

"Sister and sister sound boring. They are all practitioners. Just call them by name. It sounds closer."

Jiang Yi definitely wouldn't call Tang Jingxun sister, so she nodded her head:

"That's right, I still listen to my aunt."

Tang Jingxun was afraid that Jiang Yi would not agree, so she wouldn't say much now, so she nodded shyly.

After such a small episode, the atmosphere of the originally peaceful and beautiful dinner suddenly became weird.

As the only male, Zuo Lingquan should have enlivened the atmosphere, but his feet were stepped on so painfully that he had no chance to speak; and he did not dare to intervene in this silent battlefield of murderous moves.

Seeing this, Wu Qingwan opened her mouth to find a topic:

"We are all a family now, and we don't speak foreign languages. Jiang Yi, you and Ling Quan are engaged. We won't go back to Dadan for a short time. How about we settle the matter here. It will also be good for your cultivation."

This matter was fine in private, since Zuo Lingquan was in front of him, Jiang Yi couldn't agree to it even if he was beaten to death. Her face turned slightly red and she glanced at Wu Qingwan angrily:

"Auntie, what are you talking about? He and I are not very old, so we are not in a hurry these days..."

Wu Qingwan narrowed her eyes slightly and said to herself: "If you don't hurry, you will have to follow Jingxun and call her sister." However, it was difficult to say this.

Zuo Lingquan was not worried about Jiang Yi's spiritual practice, but relationships should not be too utilitarian. He said with a smile:

"I heard today that the Demon Detective Department next door can take over the job and go out to slay demons. Tomorrow I'll go over and have a look, pick a simple job, and go out to practice with Jiang Yi. If you practice a few more times, your cultivation will be natural. It's coming up."

Jiang Yi has always wanted to take Zuo Lingquan out to have a career, but he is not a good person and has no chance at all, and it is not easy to do so. After hearing this, she was naturally happy:

"Really? Then you go and ask around. Remember to pick someone I can deal with. Don't let me be responsible for watching over you when the time comes. It's better to stay at home and practice."

Zuo Lingquan nodded lightly and looked at Wu Qingwan. He wanted to ask about his second uncle's news tomorrow, but if he mentioned this on the table, it would affect the mood of the other girls, so he didn't say anything.

However, Wu Qingwan understood the meaning when she saw Zuo Lingquan's eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, and didn't say much. She just kept pouring wine, raising glasses to liven up the atmosphere, and listened to Zuo Lingquan's underground experience.

Peach Blossom Immortal Brewing is a fine wine from the Immortal Family. It tastes very moist and does not burn your mouth, but it is very powerful. A single sip can make anyone drunk for several days.

Practitioners in the Linggu realm will naturally not be drunk by wine. They can taste wine and enjoy the feeling of being tipsy, but Jiang Yi and Leng Zhu cannot.

Jiang Yi drank a few glasses of wine, and a blush appeared on her cheeks, and her eyes were a little wandering. However, she had developed the habit of 'paying attention to your words and deeds' when dealing with political affairs in the past years. She never spoke nonsense when her thoughts were unclear, and the more she drank, the more she drank. Talk less.

Leng Zhu was even worse than Jiang Yi. He started to feel a little dizzy while drinking. He was originally pouring wine for Zuo Lingquan, but in the end he leaned on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder in a daze and muttered:

"Mr. Zuo, the princess has missed you these past few days. When she dreams at night, just like me, she hugs me and rubs her..."

Leng Zhu has been able to accompany Jiang Yi since childhood. She is also a rare little beauty, but her status in the world is slightly lower.

Zuo Lingquan was suddenly touched randomly, and he couldn't resist touching Leng Zhu. When he was about to speak, he found that Leng Zhu had closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Jiang Yi next to her, who may or may not have heard Leng Zhu's words, held the dumplings and rubbed them in her hands, and then leaned unsteadily on Wu Qingwan.

The two little girls were forced to sleep, so the banquet could not continue.

Wu Qingwan bent down and picked up Jiang Yi, walked to the bedroom in the main house, thought for a while, and asked softly:

"Ling Quan, are you going to sleep in Miss Tang's room tonight?"

After Jiang Yi got drunk, Tang Jingxuan lost her identity suppression and returned to her usual outgoing and warm temperament. However, when she heard this, her face still turned red:

"Aunt Wu, don't get me wrong, he and I just... hugged each other, nothing else. How can we sleep in the same room? Let him sleep with the princess."

Zuo Lingquan actually wanted to sleep five people in one room, but this was obviously a dream.

Jiang Yi was drunk, and Zuo Lingquan would not mess around while Jiang Yi was unconscious. He chuckled:

"Let Jiang Yi have a good rest. I have gained some spiritual insights recently. I will have a good chat with Senior Wu later."

"..."

Wu Qingwan knew this would happen. Her dignified expression did not change at all, she just smiled gently and said:

"Jingxun, you can just call me Sister Wu from now on. Anyone who has practiced for a few years is considered a peer. Calling me aunt is too old-fashioned."

Tang Jingxuan stood up, helped Leng Zhu walk to the side room, shook his head and said:

"Yes. But I just said that calling you 'Sister, Sister' is too boring, so why don't I just call you Qingwan."

"..."

Wu Qingwan didn't want to agree, but this was what she said just now, and now she realized that she was right...

——

Under the same night, there is only one palace wall separated from the Tao Fei Palace.

There were not many people living in the Dowager Palace. Every night, a large area was illuminated by the silver moonlight, and only a few palaces in the middle were lit up.

The Tianji Palace was filled with lanterns, and palace maids in colorful clothes walked through it, recording the news from various places, either storing it and sealing it, or placing it in front of the large desk in the center.

Shangguan Lingye, who was wearing a golden phoenix skirt, was sitting behind the desk, reviewing files one after another; the blue-eyed white cat squatted next to him, gently sweeping his jade-white right hand with his tail.

The dynasty servants of the Anti-Monster Division have to be paid from the Yan State Treasury when they go out to do things. The property of the State Treasury comes from the people and cannot be touched casually. Only Shangguan Lingye, who has enough earthly status and is very loyal to the Immortal Family, can be qualified for this duty. Someone who understands.

Things are complicated and boring, and there is never a busy day. Shangguan Lingye may not feel tired physically, but if he does such meaningless things for a long time, his mental strength will inevitably become exhausted. She had just put down the file and was about to pick up the white cat and rub it, when the unicorn paperweight in front of her shimmered again.

Shangguan Lingye leaned on the chair and looked at the water curtain emerging on the table, only to see Situ's shocked big head pop up again:

"Uncle Master, the young palace master is back and is safe and sound."

Shangguan Lingye stroked the white cat's hand and seemed to want to scold someone, but in the end he restrained his emotions very well:

"You don't have to stare anymore, why are you reporting this to me?"

"I was knocking on the Royal Beast House and met on the way. Uncle Master, Qing Kui of our Tiedong Mansion, went to dig mud in Luohun Abyss. It was a bit too low of status. I told him today and asked him to come and arrest him. Yao Si takes the job; Uncle Master, please take care of this. See if you can pick out a few errands for him that are easy to do and rich in oil and water. It is best to walk over and walk around twice, and you can pick up a Law Treasure. The kind of immortal soldiers..."

?

Even though Shangguan Lingye was already very familiar with this nephew's mind, he was still left speechless:

"If I knew about this kind of errand, why didn't I go myself?"

Situ Zhenzhen waved his hand: "I just want to take care of you a little bit."

"You asked me to take care of you, and you kept the favor to yourself. You made a good calculation. I thought you were really brainless."

"Uncle Master, I have no intention of doing this in the conscience of heaven and earth. When the time comes, I will just say that it is a good job sent by Uncle Master. I will remember the favor to Uncle Master. Well...take care of the Great Alchemy Envoy. Is this a good reason?"

"Okay, got it."

Shangguan Lingye really didn't want to talk about such a trivial matter, so he waved his hand and removed the water curtain.

Soon, the palace maid put the files compiled from various places on the table again.

The files are all strange things reported in the territory under the jurisdiction of the Great Yan Dynasty. In counties and counties where there is no Xian family sect stationed, there must be demons, ghosts and wild cultivators causing trouble, just like the ferocious beasts in Great Dan; the government cannot deal with such things, only Can be handed over to the Demon Hunting Department.

Shangguan Lingye's main job is to classify and rate various events, mark rewards, and then hand them over to the appropriate dynasty for enshrinement. .

Various cases are generally divided into five levels - A, B, C, D and E. 'A' level cases are rare, mostly caused by natural disasters such as floods, droughts, etc., which require the help of the Nine Sects; while 'E' level cases involve wild cultivators relying on magic tricks to defraud money and sex, etc. The number is huge, Qi Refining Realm can do it all, and most of them are assigned to independent cultivators outside.

Shangguan Lingye looked at the case files one by one, and after guessing the difficulty based on various information, he picked up the seal, stamped it, and put it on the other side. At the same time, he was also looking for a good job suitable for Zuo Lingquan.

When turning to the fourth page, Shangguan Lingye glanced at it - the Yamen of Qi'an County, Zezhou reported that there seemed to be some evil things causing chaos in the Dahuangling area recently. People have disappeared frequently in recent years, with a total of nearly a hundred people.

Most of the ghost objects are ghosts whose souls gather together and never disperse. This kind of case is particularly tangled - the ghost objects have no entity and can only confuse and confuse people's minds. They are not a high threat to monks and the scope of harm is not large; but ordinary monks It can't hurt the ghost object, and can't even find its shadow. It can only be sent to high-level monks who are good at thunder magic to deal with it at a high price.

Shangguan Lingye picked up the seal engraved with the word 'Y', prepared to stamp it on the file, and sent someone from the Youhuang Realm of Fulong Mountain to enshrine it, but as soon as he raised his hand, there was another pause.

If Zuo Lingquan could be favored by the ancestor and realize Jianyi, he must have a strong mind, and it would be difficult for the evil spirit to do anything to him...

In Zuo Lingquan’s Cailing Valley realm, you can’t see any evil objects at all, let alone kill them and eliminate them...

Trapped by evil things and helpless, Zuo Lingquan could only ask for help...

Then the ancestor came out!

Shangguan Lingye raised her eyebrows, thinking that this was a good way to lure the snake out of its hole. She put down the seal on her hand, took a 'D'-sized seal, and stamped it on it.

Snapped--

——

The night is getting darker, the courtyard is silent, and the lights in the main room have been turned off.

Tang Jingxuan was dragged out to practice a lot. After experiencing various difficulties and embarrassments, it was inevitable that he would be physically and mentally exhausted. While he was still tipsy, he returned to the west wing and fell asleep.

After Zuo Lingquan freshened up, he came to the east wing.

The neat and elegant room was lit with green lanterns. Wu Qingwan sat sideways on the tea couch, looking at various Kit Kat materials.

Wu Qingwan had just taken a shower and was wearing a light nightgown. They had known each other for so long, and now they were not too wary. The thin skirt was very transparent, and through the light of the lights, one could faintly see the line of the slender waist under the fabric; it was aqua green. The carp in the painting shows the vague outline of a fat-headed fish on the nightgown. It is very large. It still feels heavy when I look at it now, but it is not affected by gravity and is still very tall and straight.

Because she was sitting sideways on the tea couch, Wu Qingwan did not wear embroidered shoes, and her feet were exposed from under the skirt. They were as white as mutton fat and had soft lines. What was even more soft was a pair of beautiful eyes, shining with crystal luster in front of the lights. Her lips were lit with red rouge, and her mature, gentle and graceful temperament was unreservedly displayed before her eyes.

When she heard the door open, Wu Qingwan did not raise her head. She pulled down her skirt with her hands, covered her bare feet, and said softly:

"Aren't you still asleep? Do you have any insights on cultivation that you would like to ask me?"

What other cultivation insights can Zuo Lingquan have? He closed the door, came to the tea couch, and said with a smile:

"Senior Wu, did you say that you would reward me once when I come back?"

"..."

Wu Qingwan's eyelashes trembled, she knew it would be like this. Last time, she was afraid that Jiang Yi would find out and had to say something like that to recommend her, but she avoided the first day of the new year and finally came on the fifteenth day.

Wu Qingwan couldn't bear to go back on what she had already said, so she put down Linglong Pavilion and directly changed the topic:

"If you go to the Monster Hunting Department tomorrow to get some information, ask me about it. I wanted to go there by myself these days, but there are too many experts there, and I don't know anyone."

Zuo Lingquan sat down next to him and raised his hand to rub Wu Qingwan's shoulders:

"I told you to leave it to me. Just practice well at home. Don't worry about it."

Wu Qingwan believed in Zuo Lingquan's ability, and she could relax when a man showed up to deal with it. However, at this time, she still looked haggard and said quietly:

"How can I not worry about it? I haven't been able to sleep well lately. Alas..."

Zuo Lingquan felt heartbroken when he saw this, and gave up his previous attempt to fool around with his drunkenness. He thought about it, stood up, and prepared to go out.

Wu Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and when she saw Zuo Lingquan really leaving, she said unexpectedly:

"You... are you going back to your room to sleep?"

Zuo Lingquan shook his head: "As a practitioner, the most taboo thing is to have a depressed heart. Senior Wu, please rest first. I will go and invite Senior Shocking, whom I met today, out to ask about the situation. He is a practitioner and should not sleep at night."

"Eh?"

Wu Qingwan was just looking for an excuse to avoid being ruined, but she didn't expect Zuo Lingquan to be so interested; she was willing to let Zuo Lingquan, who had just returned home without rest, go out to work again, and quickly stood up and took Zuo Lingquan's hand:

"Let me just talk about why you are so impatient. You just need to comfort me a few words, really..."

Wu Qingwan pursed her lips, feeling moved, but she didn't want to show her moved, lest Zuo Lingquan make an inch of her, and her expression was a bit weird.

Zuo Lingquan paused, looked at Wu Qingwan's expression, and immediately understood that she was pretending to be haggard just now. He breathed a sigh of relief and comforted:

"Then I'll go tomorrow, Senior Wu, don't worry, there's no rush for this matter, just leave it to me."

"..."

Wu Qingwan couldn't even put on a serious expression after all this fuss. She sat down on the tea couch and glanced at Zuo Lingquan. She wanted to find another topic but was afraid that Zuo Lingquan would take her seriously. After thinking about it, she took it out of her sleeve. Blindfold, hand it to Zuo Lingquan:

"If you want to practice, just do it. I'm actually not very tired."

Zuo Lingquan smiled, and sat back beside him, without picking up the blindfold, and continued to rub his shoulders:

"Senior Wu, didn't you say to reward me once and agree to everything?"

Wu Qingwan knew that she couldn't get away with it, so she put away the blindfold resentfully, and hummed softly:

"It's been so many days, but you remember it really clearly."

"Senior Wu's words, naturally have to be carefully remembered."

Wu Qingwan sighed and asked softly:

"What do you want me to promise? I am your teacher, and the reward is to love you, and you can't push yourself too far."

"how could be."

Zuo Lingquan leaned close to Wen Run's cheek and whispered softly in his ear.

Wu Qingwan listened intently - it was just something she had done before, and although it was a bit embarrassing and shameful, she could accept it; but at the end of listening, she gradually frowned, and raised her hand to slap Zuo Lingquan on the shoulder:

"How is this okay? Do you still have any rules?"

Zuo Lingquan smiled and said: "I agree to whatever Senior Wu says. I'm just making requests. If it doesn't work, I won't force Senior Wu."

Wu Qingwan's cheeks were already filled with a hint of drunkenness, but a blush gradually appeared and she nodded slightly. After struggling for a moment, she still followed the instructions and spoke like a mosquito:

"Ling Quan, don't do this."

His voice was calm, as if he was teaching his disciples.

Zuo Lingquan shook his head, somewhat dissatisfied:

"I have no feelings. I have to refuse and welcome you, but I am embarrassed and afraid. Since Senior Wu agreed, he can't handle the errands."

Wu Qingwanguang almost fainted when she said this. She turned her head and wanted to scold Zuo Lingquan, but Zuo Lingquan fell down and suppressed her.

"Woo..."

Wu Qingwan was lying on the tea couch, looking at the smiling brat above her, tilting her head left and right to hide a few times, but finally had no choice but to close her eyes and said softly:

"Ling Quan~ Don't be like this~..."

The voice is soft and waxy, and sweet to the bone.

Zuo Lingquan's heart trembled, and he showed a wicked smile:

"Little lady, you are flying today... Hiss - Senior Wu, why are you pinching me?"

Wu Qingwan was stunned when she saw Ling Quan, who had always been upright and upright, suddenly showing that dandy smile, and said seriously:

"Ling Quan, what do you look like?"

"Just role-playing."

"What kind of pretense? You smile like those young squires who bully men and dominate women."

"I was originally the young master of a squire and landlord's family, so I played the role of my true self. Senior Wu played the role of the fairy in distress who was snatched back by me..."

"?"

"If Senior Wu doesn't want to, there's no need to force him."

"You! Oh...can you act in something else?"

"Others... vixens and scholars? I'm afraid this won't work. There is no fox tail. Let's wait until next time..."

"How about I play the role of a seriously injured woman who fainted, and you can play whatever you want?"

"What do you think?"

"I think...that's okay?"

"Okay, don't move if you faint. Don't act like you're going to be punished."

"If you don't move, don't move. This is the only time. Afterwards, I will still be you... ugh..."
