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

Chapter 92
Ning'an Road is very quiet at night.

Xu House.

The woman in Jingchai's cloth skirt held a wooden tray, gently opened the door, and whispered to Xu Zhen who was lost in front of the desk:
"Master, the sweet-scented osmanthus brew you requested is here."

"Oh," Xu Zhen came back to his senses after hearing this. He looked up with a dull expression and saw his wife leaning over to put the celadon wine bottle on the table.

After the woman gently put down her drinking utensil, she turned around and walked out the door.

After being married for more than ten years, she knows her husband's temper best.

It was not appropriate for her to stay here at this time, and it was more appropriate to leave him alone.

And when she turned around and walked to the door, she heard Xu Zhen's lonely voice coming from behind:

"Madam, next year...there is no need to send sweet-scented osmanthus wine to Jiangdu."

The woman who vaguely guessed something turned her head and looked at Xu Zhen with distressed eyes. She saw him looking at the moonlight outside the window and saying to himself sadly:

"Tingfeng is gone, Tingfeng is gone."

……

……

Jiangdu, Xie Mansion.

White paper lanterns with the word "Dian" written on the surface are hung everywhere in the house.

In less than half an hour, the entire mansion was dressed in plain white.

It seemed like there had been a heavy snowfall.

Inside the brightly lit Hidden Sword House,
Li Cheng and several of the Xie family's legitimate sons were silently keeping vigil for Xie Tingfeng in the waiting room.

in the courtyard,

Taoist priests and monks worked together to pray for the deceased third master of the Xie family.

In fact, Li Cheng, an outsider, was not allowed to participate in the vigil.

But since he was Xie Tingfeng's nephew, he was also gifted the famous Zhaodan Sword.

Both emotionally and rationally, he should do his part for his elders.

Time passed quietly tick by tick.

In the blink of an eye, the time has passed, and it is the time when everything is silent.

Li Cheng, who was sitting in the Taishi chair with his head bowed in thought, suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder.

Looking back suddenly,

He saw Bai Ye who had changed into white clothes and nodded silently to him.

Then,

The other party turned around and walked outside. Li Cheng thought for a moment and then followed him knowingly.

The two of them walked out of the Hidden Sword Cottage one after another and walked along the corridor beside the green water lake to a secluded place.

The thin moonlight at midnight makes the surrounding light dim.

Unable to see the other person's expression clearly, Li Cheng saw the other person standing by the pillars, looked at the starry lake, and spoke softly:
"Ah Cheng, I have something to tell you."

"Uncle, please speak. This junior is all ears."

Li Cheng's neither humble nor overbearing answer made Bai Ye grin in the darkness:

"Didn't I still call your Aunt Xie my foster mother during the day? Why did you change your name now?"

Li Cheng thought to himself that he could not climb up the ladder without even nodding his head and agreeing to be the adoptive father.

Just a moment of silence,
Li Cheng responded quickly:

"In the hearts of the younger generation, uncle and aunt have long been regarded as a family. Over the years, they have become accustomed to calling them, and they haven't had time to change their names."

Li Cheng's words came from the bottom of his heart.

Although he did not meet frequently with Bai Ye and his wife,
But the other party really didn't have anything to say to him, and secretly provided him with a large number of reliable experts with innocent backgrounds to dispatch.

This provided a great boost to his rebellion.

When Bai Ye heard this, his heart warmed slightly, and he still said calmly:

"You can call me whatever you want. I just want to tell you that what your godmother means is also what I mean."

"..., thank you foster father."

His change of words was smooth and smooth, and there was no hint of any abruptness in it.

Bai Ye smiled again, still looking at the lake, and returned to the topic:

"This time, your stepmother and I went deep into the Western Region and finally found Xia Xuecao, one of the seven magical medicines."

After hearing this, Li Cheng thought of the descriptions in the Confucian collection in his mind and asked softly:

"Is it that magical medicine that is rumored to be able to reverse the properties of all things and even ignore laws and order?"

Under normal circumstances, there would be no snow in the summer in June.

The name of Xia Xucao secretly expresses its efficacy.

It is recorded in ancient books that after taking this medicine,
It can provide opportunities for practitioners who have gone astray and reached a dead end in their practice with no hope of attaining the right path.

But there is a very important premise:

Xia Xuecao is only useful to those who have never touched the laws of the great road.

A great master like Tang San who has half-stepped into the realm of land gods, even if he takes Xia Xucao, he can't eat it like chicken ribs.

otherwise,

Li Cheng can just search for Xia Xuecao all over the world, and there is no need to risk his life in the Kunlun Secret Realm.

"Yeah, but it's not as magical as the legend says."

Bai Ye nodded gently and admitted with a calm look. After a moment, he heard the other party pondering and asking tentatively:

"So, foster father, do you want to use Xia Xuecao to treat Yan Yan's depression?"

"You're right," Bai Ye secretly glanced at Li Cheng with admiration and explained in a calm voice:
"I asked Master Shuanghui that with the blessing of the power of Xia Xuecao, using the Confucian meditation technique can greatly alleviate Yan Yan's condition."

Having said that,

The smile on Bai Ye's lips turned slightly bitter, and he sighed with regret:
"Xia Xucao is a magical medicine with great spiritual power. It has become sluggish from the hinterland of the Western Region to Bashu. I think it is because I miss my homeland.

Therefore, I left it in Jianzong and did not take it to Jiangnan. "

After hearing the words and thinking for a moment, Li Cheng suddenly understood what the other party meant by making a big circle in his words.

"So," Li Cheng looked at the other person's blurry profile in the night and said without any trace:
"What you mean, foster father, is that you want to take Yan Yan back to the Sword Sect in Shu for treatment, right?"

"Well, if possible, I hope you can accompany Yan Yan to the Sword Sect as a guest.

After all, she relies on you as her senior brother. "

Hearing Bai Ye Tu Qiong Dajian's frank explanation, Li Cheng didn't think anything was wrong.

The other party originally sent Yan Yan to Jiangnan to alleviate autism.

Now that we have the magical medicine Xia Xucao, it is only natural for people to take their precious daughter back to enjoy family happiness.

not to mention,
Considering the other party's status as a land sword god, speaking in such a consultative tone with a little Karami like him already fully shows respect.

If it were Li Cheng's second junior brother, I'm afraid Bai Ye wouldn't even bother to notify him.

Even though he was very reluctant to let go of the junior sister he raised with his own hands, Li Cheng could not find a reason to refuse.

then,

After thinking for a moment, Li Cheng agreed in a deep voice:
"Thank you very much for your foster father's kindness, but this junior will have to take part in the national examination next year and will not be able to go to Shuzhong.

I don’t know when the adoptive father plans to take Yan Yan away, so the younger generation might as well say goodbye to Yan Yan in advance. "

"Oh?"

With a slight sigh, Bai Ye seemed not to have expected that the other party would dare to throw himself into a trap and run to Chang'an.

However, he quickly put away the faint surprise in his eyes and said in a gentle voice:
“This matter is not urgent.

Since you are going to Chang'an next year, you might as well let Yan Yan stay in Jiangning until the end of the year. "

slightly nodded,

Li Cheng understood that the other party was giving him enough time to adapt to the temporary separation from his junior sister.

After saying this, the two were silent to each other for a while.

a long time,

Bai Ye slowly looked away from the lake, turned to look at Li Cheng with burning eyes, and asked softly with a half-smile:
"Do you think Tingfeng entered the realm of land gods after wielding the sword on the river?"
