My wife, the eldest princess of the demon clan, I recite poems and become a sword god

Chapter 73 Lighting the Sky Lantern

Hearing this, Xie Jingzhi's face suffocated and his expression looked a little sad:

"Father, Master Yurun said he was helpless."

When he said this, Xie Jingzhi couldn't help but lowered his head and smiled bitterly at himself.

As a well-known and top-notch family in the Jin Dynasty, the Danyang Xie family has always been accustomed to being flattered by others.

Over time,
They have forgotten what it is like to be humble and ask for help.

The Xie family can indeed be said to be crazy and cool, but there are still three great sects of the royal family and Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism that firmly dominate it.

The Master Yurun they mentioned is the junior brother of the current Taoist leader.

If the other party refuses to cooperate, then the Xie family really has nothing to do and can only stare blankly.

Hearing the eldest son's answer, the head of the Xie family couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his tone, and his voice rose slightly:

"Even if he uses the Seven-Star Life-Extending Lantern, his vitality will be severely damaged, but the Xie family will provide him with heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and he can return to normal within half a year..."

"Father, these children have spoken to real people."

Taking the initiative to interrupt the head of the Xie family, the bitterness in Xie Jingzhi's eyes deepened:

"No matter how much the clan elders talk, Master Yurun insists that he has no chance to be with my Xie family. You can't force me."

Even though the head of the Xie family has been in power for many years and has the majesty of a superior person, at this moment he can't help but want to yell at the other party for being stupid.

What bullshit!

Isn’t it because he dislikes that the Xie family in Danyang does not have enough status and is not worthy of letting him take action to extend Xie Tingfeng’s life?

And his Xie family is not without self-awareness.

Danyang Xie's face is not big enough, so is the female swordsman Xie Yongxu's face enough?Does the land sword god Bai Ye have enough face?
Even if he is as strong as the Taoist sect, it is difficult to refuse the opportunity to owe a favor to the two land gods.

After expressing the doubts in his heart, the head of the Xie family saw his son's face become very sad:

"Zhenren Yurun said that he had no doubt that his aunt and uncle loved his uncle.

He was willing to stay here temporarily, waiting for his aunt and uncle to come back. "

Head of the Xie family:...

What the other party said was very cryptic, but he still understood it.

The implication of Master Yurun's words is nothing more than a hint that no one in the Xie family can promise favors to the two land gods at this moment.

What if he exhausted all his energy to save the third master of the Xie family and the other party later disowned him?
This is a typical mentality of not letting go of the eagle when you see the rabbit.

But an unsolvable question is,

Judging from the current critical situation, by the time those two people rush back to Xie's Mansion, the day lily may be cold.

Then why does he keep Master Yurun here, waiting to treat him to a meal? !
took a deep breath,
The head of the Xie family said nothing more, turned around and decided to go and beg the thief Yurun himself.

Time was running out, and even though he knew there was little hope, he still had to give it a try.

The father and son spoke very quickly.

It seemed like the conversation lasted a long time, but in reality it was only a few dozen breaths.

The head of the Xie family had just taken a step forward when he heard a calm voice coming from behind:
"Uncle, wait a moment."

As Li Cheng spoke unhurriedly, the entire living room fell silent.

Everyone looked up at the banished immortal standing halfway up the stairs, and saw him speaking calmly:
"If you want to ask Master Yurun to cast the seven-star life-extending lamp, I would like to help you."

The voice paused slightly,

Before the head of the Xie family could react, his eyes fell on Xie Jingzhi behind him and said loudly:

"Please tell Master Yurun that the Taoist sect owed me a favor three years ago outside Gusu City.

Tonight, Li Cheng hopes to take this opportunity to renew a good relationship with Taoism. "

Rumble!
As the words fell to the ground, a thunder flashed almost simultaneously in the rainy night outside the building.

Lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the astonished expressions of everyone present in a flash.

Hearing this, Xie Jingzhi was slightly startled and couldn't help but froze on the spot.

The head of the Xie family reacted quickly, and quickly reached out and patted his son's right arm heavily:

"What are you still doing, hurry up!"

"okay."

Looking deeply at the young man in black and brocade clothes with gratitude, Xie Jingzhi took three steps and two steps at a time and ran towards the majestic rain without looking back.

The head of the Xie family stood there, staring at the back of his eldest son, and disappeared from sight in a few breaths.

look back,

He raised his head again and looked at Li Cheng, who had walked all the way up the stairs and was about to walk towards the attic.

He straightened his clothes,
The head of the Xie family left his left hand outside and made a fist with his right hand. He bent down and gave a solemn salute to the other party. He spoke every word and said loudly:
"Thank you to the Xie family of Danyang in Guanchao, and thank you to the banished immortal for your help."

next moment,
All the Xie clan members present bent down uniformly and spoke solemnly in unison:
"I'll thank you for banishing the immortal."

The thank you at this moment was so loud that it drowned out the sound of rain falling outside the building and seemed to be able to shatter the eaves.

Looking at the crowd of people downstairs who were prostrating themselves indifferently, Li Cheng could not see any excitement on his face.

After gently nodding and returning the courtesy to everyone downstairs, he immediately walked straight into the room with the door closed.

He left everyone with a long and indifferent figure.

It seemed that he had only done a trivial thing just now.

……

……

The airtight room deep in the attic was filled with the lingering smell of soup.

There is a depressing aura among the bitterness, which makes people feel deeply uncomfortable.

After entering the room,

Glancing at the few doctors guarding outside the screen, Li Cheng found that they all looked depressed and defeated.

It's just a matter of writing the words "I only hate that I can't get back to heaven" written on my face.

I have to say that these guys are all veteran actors.

His expression is just right, and his attitude alone is enough to qualify him as a miracle doctor.

Crossing the screen, Li Cheng walked softly inside.

The girl who was sitting next to the hospital bed hugging her knees heard the sound and looked up with red eyes.

A small, pure and fair face, with traces of tears clearly visible in the corners of the eyes.

The white dress on the girl's body looks particularly weak and poignant under the candlelight.

Pear flowers bring rain, I still feel pity.

Quietly walking forward, Li Cheng put his hand on the back of Bai Mengyan's head, which had drooping black hair, and silently comforted her.

Simultaneously,

He lowered his eyes and looked at Mr. Xie, who was sitting on the bedside with a smile on his face, but his heart couldn't help but sink.

Xie Tingfeng, who had been suffering from illness for a long time, was now emaciated and his hair was gray, looking like a skeleton covered in human skin.

Although he is only in his 30s, he is as decayed and decayed as an old man.

however,
Even though the eyes of the other party are deeply sunken, they are not showing signs of decline. Instead, they are bright and full of energy, containing a glimmer of light that can see through the world.

Moreover, he was so weak that he couldn't even lift his fingers, but his energy was unexpectedly good.

It's a bit like recovering from a serious illness.

But this is definitely not a good thing.

All situations point to a very heavy word——

Back to light.

The short period of sobriety is at the cost of burning out the last vitality.

And this state is destined not to last long.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng, who didn't know what to say, suddenly saw Xie Tingfeng open his mouth slightly and asked softly:

"I heard the noise outside. What are they...thanking you for?"

Taking the initiative to lean over and help the other party tuck in the quilt, Li Cheng answered bluntly without covering up:

"It's nothing. I'll ask Daoist Master Yurun to come over and light a sky lantern for you, uncle."
