Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 385 Two Taoist Companions?

It was already afternoon when I came back from Wangchuan City.

The dumpling was so full that it was round into a ball. When I went home, I was afraid of being beaten, so I took Qiutao for a walk by the small river.

Zuo Lingquan went back to the attic first. There was no one on the first floor. After walking around, he found that Jingxun was 'practicing' in the martial arts hall on the second floor.

Jing Xun is not very interested in practice, but she has been practicing for a long time, and it is not advisable to rely on talent without doing business. When she has nothing to do in private, Jing Xun will still practice according to the secret books of exercises.

The setting sun in May shone in the well-lit martial arts hall.

Tang Jingxun was wearing a thin home skirt, and she was practicing the slow and slow boxing technique taught by Qiu Tao in the living room. Her movements and postures were all standard, but Jingxun's figure was round and round, and the goose yellow skirt was looser and more comfortable. On the contrary, Wu Xiu's majestic aura has added a different charm, just like the young grandmother of a rich family, doing aerobics in the house when she has nothing to do, and whispering in her mouth:

"Huh... ha..."

When Zuo Lingquan came to the window, he stopped and watched with a smile.

Although I can't see any martial arts knowledge, the movements of my daughter-in-law's martial arts are really eye-catching. Leaving aside the snake-like flexible waist and hips, it's hard to look away just because the skirt of the clothes is bouncing up and down with the movements.

The size of Jingxun's breasts is very impressive. Although she can't compete with the overbearing Qingwan and the younger sister Yingying, she should not be underestimated. The shape is as perfect and eye-catching as an inverted jade bowl, and it is decorated with cherries on the mountain...

cough……

Zuo Lingquan felt that his mind was a little wandering. Jing Xun was clearly wearing clothes, so why did he think of doing such an unseemly thing?

I don't know if the ancestor is busy now...

…

Although Tang Jingxun didn't have the aura of martial arts, she was still very serious when she practiced. She practiced for a long time on her own. When she turned around, she found Zuo Lingquan standing at the window, aiming at her with eyes that "a daughter-in-law understands".

Tang Jingxuan blinked his eyes, maybe because he was afraid of being laughed at by Zuo Lingquan, he quickly put away his posture, turned into a gentle look, and walked quickly to the window:

"Xiao Zuo, you're back! Where is Qiu Tao?"

"Take the dumplings for a walk outside. I'll be back later."

Zuo Lingquan entered the hall and saw that Jing Xun was breathing a little short, with a little sweat on his forehead, took out a handkerchief, wiped Jing Xun's cheeks, and put his arms around her hot waist:

"Are you tired? Come down and rest for a while. I'll help you clear your air pockets."

Just by looking at Zuo Lingquan's eyes, Tang Jingxuan knew where he wanted to 'clear' the air pockets. She stood on tiptoes and tapped Zuo Lingquan's lips with a smile on her lips:

"Sister Yingying is still up there. I'll let you do whatever you want here. I won't prick you with a needle when I hear it later."

Even so, Tang Jingxun obediently undid a cloth button on the skirt, and the skirt snapped open, revealing the snowy skin and bellyband underneath. She took Zuo Lingquan's hand and put it in her arms. After thinking about it, she whispered:

"By the way, Xiao Zuo, the mother-in-law came over just now, and she was talking to sister Yingying, but she didn't let me listen in. I feel that the mother-in-law is very strange these days. She often secretly asks what sister Yingying is doing, just like a secular mother-in-law. …”

"Yeah?"

Zuo Lingquan blinked his eyes, pondered for a while, but couldn't figure out what Shangguan Patriarch was thinking, so he didn't think too much, and concentrated on rubbing and massaging his daughter-in-law to relieve the fatigue after exercise.

Tang Jingxun had already tasted the taste, how could she stand her husband's teasing, she felt that she had to react, afraid of being reprimanded by her mother-in-law, so she pressed Zuo Lingquan's hand in time:

"Okay, okay, let's talk about it in the evening. I will say hello to the mother-in-law later. You go to visit Miss Xia Yingying first. She hasn't gone downstairs for a long time... Don't be the same as last time. You won't come down when you go up. Stand Dancing on the table, I waited all night yesterday and wanted to fall asleep with Qiutao in my arms..."

"hehe……"

With a smile on his face, Zuo Lingquan scratched Jing Xuan's shameless face with his fingers, then turned around and went upstairs.

The third floor is empty and quiet, with a few piano sounds accompanying the setting sun, disappearing and appearing in the corridor.

Zuo Lingquan straightened his clothes and walked slowly outside the boudoir without knocking, just opened the door and walked in.

The window in the room was open, Cui Yingying was wearing a light green nightgown, leaning on the tea couch by the window, holding a wine gourd in her hand, her eyes drowsy.

Seeing Zuo Lingquan come in, Cui Yingying sat up a little straighter, put her bare feet covered in black stockings into her skirt, and looked serious:

"What are you doing up here?"

The relationship between them has been confirmed, so Zuo Lingquan will naturally not act like a junior anymore. He came to the tea couch and sat down, smiling and saying:

"I miss you."

"..."

Cui Yingying didn't quite adapt to the relationship between couples, but she was hugged and rubbed the steamed buns, and she couldn't show the air of the lord; she didn't want to act like a shy little daughter, so she thought about it and directly talked about the real thing:

"Wangchuan City asked you to go back. What's the matter? Will you be rewarded based on your merits?"

"It's nothing. Miss Qiu called me over. She said she wanted to take advantage of Lang Kai's injury to cross Snow Lang Mountain to explore the situation in the interior of Posu Island..."

After Zuo Lingquan briefly told what happened today, he asked:

"Sister Yingying, will you follow me or continue to be the guardian behind me?"

This is meant to be a joke.

Cui Yingying was slightly dissatisfied: "Do you need to ask me how I behave? You can go your own way and just pretend that I don't exist."

Zuo Lingquan knew that Cui Yingying would definitely follow, so he just nodded with a smile.

Cui Yingying leaned on the small case and chatted with Zuo Lingquan for only a few words before she felt that something was not right about the fluctuation in her heart - it was almost like the medicinal properties of Longyang Pill had not been completely resolved.

The medicinal properties of Longyang Pill have obviously been resolved. If there are still waves in the heart at this time, it must be his own problem.

But Cui Yingying didn't want to admit it, her eyes were a little dodgeful, and after thinking about it, she took out a bead from her sleeve and handed it to Zuo Lingquan:

"You can use this soul bead now. It contains the power of the soul that was not dissipated by the monk Wangji before his death. As long as it is successfully refined, it is not a big deal to raise a small realm problem. You can find an opportunity to refine it as soon as possible. .”

Zuo Lingquan stepped into the Jade Stage and understood the difficulty of cultivating the Soul Refining Soul. It is said that water can penetrate the stone quickly. If you do not take shortcuts and slowly warm up the soul, the cultivation speed will basically be calculated as Jiazi. This is why most of the ancestors of the Jade Stage are not alive. , they all stayed in retreat in the back mountain.

After understanding the difficulty of Jade Level Cultivation, Zuo Lingquan naturally understood what a great opportunity this soul bead retained by the ancient monks committed suicide. He did not reach out to take it, but said:

"Sister Yingying, keep it for yourself. I'm too young, I'm climbing too fast, and I don't have enough experience to keep up. It's not a good thing to say."

"I would like to use it myself, but this soul bead can only be used in the early and middle stages of the jade level. If it is higher, the soul has already reached perfection, and using it is just the icing on the cake."

When Cui Yingying said this, she looked at Zuo Lingquan and said seriously:

"Don't think that having a high realm and practicing fast is a good thing, and it is worthy of being humble to your relatives and friends. A high realm is indeed a good thing, but when you reach the top of Jiuzhou, Taoism becomes a burden that cannot be relieved. .”

Cui Yingying placed the soul pearl on the table and looked at the portrait on the wall:

"If the sky falls, tall people are holding it up. Once you get to that position, you can't be alone. Take Yutang and I as examples. I'm only a hair behind Yutang. For all living beings, the difference is actually not big. We are ancestors at the top of the mountain, but our situations are very different from hers.

"Since the day I became the Lord, I have not worried about anything for a day. I have been drunk and dreaming all day, playing with the world. I have enjoyed all the happiness that can be enjoyed in this world, and now there is no pressure or burden on my shoulders.

"Shangguan Yutang is not like that. She stands on the top of the mountain. She is said to be among the ten Immortal Lords and is worshiped by all beings, but she carries the burden of the 'right path' on her shoulders. Have you ever seen her free even for a day?

"When the realm reaches a certain level, people will become cautious and cautious, not daring to relax even for a moment; because the direction of the entire world is in their hands, and if they relax even a little bit, they will drag the entire ethnic group into the Myriad Tribulations.

"I stand on the second line. Even if one day I want to give up my career and become a wild crane, no one in the world will blame me. But Shangguan Yutang can't do it. If the sky falls and she doesn't resist, then she will be a sinner. She stands on the ninth floor. On the top of the continent, we must shoulder this responsibility.”

When Cui Yingying said this, she looked at Zuo Lingquan and said:

"You and Shangguan Yutang have similar temperaments. To you, Taoism and realm are just tools to protect the Tao in your hearts. The higher the Taoism, the heavier the burden on your shoulders will naturally be. No surprise, thousands of years later, you will also be the same as Shangguan Yutang. Just like Shangguan Yutang, he sits in a palace far away from the world and watches the common people. He doesn't dare to truly breathe a sigh of relief until he finds his successor and dies."

Zuo Lingquan smiled softly: "As long as there are people around me, it doesn't make any difference to me wherever I am."

Cui Yingying snorted softly and continued:

"So, whether this soul pearl or Yutang's sword, they are not opportunities given to you, but the cornerstone for you to carry heavy burdens in the future. If you give these to the people around you, you are shirking your responsibility.

"My master's generation gave Yutang a chance. Yutang never refused, because she knew the purpose of giving her the opportunity, and she has lived up to the expectations of everyone and has persisted to this day. She has lived up to everything her ancestors gave her."

Zuo Lingquan didn't say much when he saw this and put the soul beads away.

Cui Yingying nodded slightly, probably because she was preaching as an elder, and she felt a little carried away, and she said:

"Children can be taught."

Zuo Lingquan blinked and felt that Yingying was too rude. He stood up and sat next to Cui Yingying and said with a smile:

"We agreed to get along as Taoist couples in private, but why do we act like elders again?"

Cui Yingying tensed up, her ancestor's aura was gone, and she sat up straighter:

"Taoist couple... are not just partners to explore the Tao together, what else do you want?"

What do I want?

Zuo Lingquan smiled and leaned towards Cui Yingying's pretending to be serious.

"..."

Cui Yingying shrank back a little, but after much hesitation, she still didn't avoid it.

After all, she personally promised to get along as a Taoist couple in private, and she kept her word.

Anyway, it’s not the first time I’ve kissed...

——

The northwest of the Snow Wolf Mountains is a vast hilly area with three large rivers on it. There are many mountaintops occupied by birds and beasts among the deep mountains and dense forests. The land is vast and sparsely populated, with only a few small countries and a large number of small tribes scattered upstream and downstream.

The sun had just set when a small boat sailed down the river, entered the capital of Liquan Kingdom, and docked beside the street.

Liquan Kingdom is located in the hinterland of the Posu Continent, and its area is much larger than that of the Great Dan Dynasty, which is located in a corner. However, it is in a wild land, and the scene inside is much more miserable than that of the relatively affluent Great Dan Dynasty. Poverty is everywhere along the way. , it is only slightly more prosperous as the national capital, but it only has a slightly larger population. In terms of living standards, it may not be able to catch up with the county town of Dadan.

Jiang Yi, a worldly businessman, stood on the bow of the boat and frowned secretly as she looked at the slender people in the streets and alleys.

Wu Qingwan stood beside Jiang Yi, wearing clothes of a secular woman, dressed like Jiang Yi's aunt. She was very simple, but the warmth in Qiu Shui's eyes did not change.

After arriving in this foreign country, Wu Qingwan realized how much Lord Peach Blossom had contributed to the Nine Sects. She looked back to the east:

"The water and soil here are quite fertile. After the war is over, let Ling Quan get the seeds from Peach Blossom Pond and find someone to teach them how to plant them. It should be able to improve..."

Jiang Yi shook her head slightly at this: "The war between good and evil has been going on for thousands of years. As a strategic location, Posu Island cannot be stabilized unless one of the two sides falls. How can this war be over?"

"Oh, that's right..."

After watching the boat for a while, the two turned and returned to the cabin.

The outer appearance of the boat is somewhat concealed, and it looks like it is just a small passenger ship. The furnishings inside have not changed much.

Shangguan Lingye was sitting behind the desk, with the deeds recorded by Li Quanguo in recent years in front of him, and he was reading them carefully; Leng Zhu was sitting opposite, and the white cat was squatting on the table, using its paws to play the cat bell hanging on the pen mountain. .

Jiang Yi came to the front and asked:

"Aren't we here to investigate the movements of alien races? Why did we come to the secular world?"

No matter where she is, Shangguan Lingye's luxurious and elegant temperament will never change. She drew on the file with a gold pen and said calmly:

"The secular world is the foundation of the Immortal Family. Regardless of whether they are righteous or aliens, they are inextricably linked to each other. If the Liquan Kingdom can survive for hundreds of years in the Bosu Continent where demons are rampant, the royal family must be connected with the Immortal Family. This is a foreign country. Territory, the people behind it are naturally related to foreign races.”

Shangguan Lingye said this and put down his gold pen: "Wang Yi, the national teacher of Liquan Kingdom, is an Independent Cultivator of Youhuang. He is a local monk on the surface. He is honest and has no background. But without the help of experts, how can he cultivate in a local place?" When you come to Youhuang Realm, it must be the spy of the foreign race here."

"Oh...then what?"

Shangguan Lingye stood up, raised his hand and waved lightly. The gorgeous dress on his body turned into an ordinary woman's dress, and his face also changed:

"Since he is an informant, he must have a way to contact the higher-ups. If he knows the internal situation of the foreign race, he cannot be sure. Let's go and take a look."

Seeing this, Jiang Yi also tidied up her disguise, said goodbye to Qingwan who was left behind, and stepped onto the street.

The boat was parked outside the busiest street in the capital, not far from the imperial city. The most magnificent building outside was the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.

Jiang Yi followed Shangguan Lingye and inspected the warning formation outside the Imperial Master's Mansion. Lingye was responsible for doing these things. She couldn't help him, so she asked:

"Zuo Lingquan should be coming too, right?"

Shangguan Lingye was strolling on the street, observing the Imperial Master's Mansion from the corner of his eye, and responded:

"Lang Kai was hit hard, and there was a gap in the defense line of the Snow Wolf Mountains. Wangchuan City will inevitably advance westward. It is normal for Zuo Lingquan to take the lead."

"Qiu Youyou should be very grateful to be saved by Zuo Lingquan as a hero. I'm afraid she will be with Zuo Lingquan on this trip."

? ?

Shangguan Lingye's eyes narrowed.

When Jiang Yi said this, she was actually filled with jealousy, but when she thought that Ling Ye was more angry than her, she felt much better. She also added:

"Perhaps Miss Qiu is with Zuo Lingquan now. You lead me on the front line to slay demons, but Zuo Lingquan is chatting and laughing with your old enemy, in front of flowers and under the moon. Think about it, isn't it appropriate?"

"..."

Lingye seemed calm and calm, but how could he not have some troubles in his heart? In just a few words, she felt how annoyed Jiang Yi was because of how aggrieved she was back then. She wished she could go back now to see where Zuo Lingquan is now. What to do.

But after all, Lingye was not a daughter-in-law, so he suppressed these distracting thoughts in his heart, and lectured in the tone of a sister:

"Do business, don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Yi felt secretly happy and stopped talking.

Lingye spent a long time exploring outside the huge Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. After bypassing several warning formations, he came to the inside of the mansion.

There are people everywhere, and the same is true in Posuzhou, which is in troubled times. Ordinary people cannot afford three meals a day, but this does not affect the extravagant desires of meat eaters.

The Imperial Master's Mansion is extremely luxurious. Although it is not a mansion of the Immortal Family, the materials and design can be considered comparable to that of a prince in the Yan Dynasty.

Ling Ye was sneaking silently, and it could be seen that there were many people inside the mansion, but only a few had traces of practice, and the others were all secular family members of the national master Wang Yi.

Due to the lifespan gap between immortals and mortals, people who practice Taoism usually do not marry and have children in the secular world; but in Posuzhou, a place where birds do not lay eggs, it is not easy to find a like-minded Taoist companion, and it is not uncommon for this to happen.

Lingye came to the back of the house and found Liquan Kingdom's Imperial Master Wang Yi in the study. Before he got close, he heard the sound of father and son chatting:

"Dad, let's run away. Something big has happened in Xuelang Mountain. The east side will definitely come here soon. You are the national preceptor here, and you know with your ass that you have nothing to do with the west side. If you run away from the battle and are caught by the superiors, at most If you are dragged to feed the monsters; if you are caught by a 'righteous man', you will be thrown into the Thunder Pond and never be reincarnated..."

"Where can you run? There are only two kinds of good and evil in the world. If you run away, where else can your father and I stay?"

"Hey, it said that Immortal Venerable has set up a magic circle in Zhonglu Valley and asked you to clear the surrounding areas in advance. Doesn't this mean that the battle line is about to push to Liquan Kingdom? When Immortal Venerable fights, thousands of miles around will be turned into scorched earth. Don't run away. Why are you staying here to join in the fun?"

"You definitely don't have to run away. Your father and I serve as national masters and have killed a lot of rebellious monsters. We have some merits. Even if we haven't been beaten by the superiors, if we are really caught by the righteous Immortal Master, we might be able to surrender... "

"Dad, look at your tone. You've started to call me 'Immortal Master of the Righteous Way'. You want to change the court, so now you're running to the east to report the news. You're still sincere. When someone comes to the door, you can say this, and the Immortal Master of the Righteous Way will listen to you." A long-winded sentence?"

"Now that Snow Wolf Mountain has not been broken, is it possible for your father and me to fly over there in a big way?"

…

Ling Ye and Jiang Yi listened secretly and looked at each other, not knowing how to evaluate the Independent Cultivator father and son who were struggling to survive in the cracks.

Bell Valley...

Lingye thought for a moment and looked to the southwest...

——

The east side of Xuefeng Mountains.

The bright moonlight shines on the flower-scented grassland, and at the end of the field of vision are the towering black mountains.

The group of monks composed of Bao Lanshan, Song Chi and others walked forward under the moonlight and stepped into the Snow Wolf Mountain Range again. This time there was no wolf king in the mountain, and the group looked much more relaxed.

On the grassland behind, Qiu Youyou, dressed in white military uniform, holding a green sword in his hand, looked to the east, quietly waiting for that person's arrival.

This trip goes deep into the heart and is quite risky. Miss Qiu did not take Yunzhi with her, but she was alone.

Originally, according to Miss Qiu's idea, she and Zuo Lingquan would go deep into the enemy's belly - of course, this was not to want to have something to do with Zuo Lingquan, but two jade-level swordsmen to rush for thousands of miles, as long as they are not rash, it is normal No one can stop the encounter, so be more secure.

But Zuo Lingquan wanted to take Xie Qiutao with him. Miss Qiu knew how strong Xie Qiutao was despite her small size, so she didn't say anything.

Standing on the grassland with nothing to do, Miss Qiu was still a little curious about the relationship between Xie Qiutao and Zuo Lingquan.

Miss Qiu would definitely not believe that the two were ordinary friends, but Zuo Lingquan already had a Taoist partner.

If Miss Xie had a crush on Zuo Lingquan, how pitiful it would be in the future. Zuo Lingquan has already married a wife, but the love for a lifetime is hard to come to fruition. Thinking about it makes people worry...

While thinking wildly, the sound of breaking wind came from the eastern sky.

Miss Qiu quickly brushed away her distracting thoughts. She thought it was Zuo Lingquan and Xie Qiutao who were coming, but when she took a closer look, it was three people.

On the eastern skyline, apart from Zuo Lingquan in white robes and the dainty Qiu Tao, there was also a charming woman following behind.

The woman's temperament does not look like a person who is practicing, but she can walk against the wind, her figure is round and beautiful, and she holds a white dumpling in her arms, and she can hear the words of reprimand in a delicate voice:

"Be honest, can't you fly by yourself if you want to go there? Are you using me as a mount if you keep filming me?"

"Chi chi chi~"

Tuanzi shook his head like a rattle and became very honest.

Miss Qiu originally thought that this person was Lord Peach Blossom, but seeing that the weather was really different, she felt confused and stepped forward to greet her, saying:

"Zuo Jianxian, Miss Xie, who is this?"

Zuo Lingquan landed gracefully on the grassland, smiling at Jing Xun behind him:

"This is my wife, her name is Tang Jingxun. Miss Qiu can just call her Jingxun."

"What...what?"

Miss Qiu was stunned for a moment, with some incredible eyes:

"Then Lingye..."

After Tang Jingxun landed, she behaved more politely and said with a smile:

"I've met Miss Qiu. Lingye and I are sisters. I came in before her."

? ?

This time, not only Miss Qiu, but also Xie Qiutao was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: Doesn't this mean that Sister Lingye is the younger sister? Ouch...

Zuo Lingquan didn't dare to talk, so he just smiled vaguely.

Miss Qiu was very shocked, and she was a little relieved when she heard Jing Xun say that she would enter the door first—it is estimated that this girl met Zuo Lingquan first, and Shangguan Lingye stepped in, and Zuo Lingquan refused to abandon her poor wife. There are two Taoist monks...

I didn’t expect that Shangguan Lingye’s domineering temperament would give in and serve a husband together...

Miss Qiu shook her head secretly. Her little heart, which was broken by Lingye a few days ago, was restored a little, and she said with a smile:

"I really didn't expect that Zuo Jianxian actually has two Taoist companions."

Tang Jingxuan wanted to remind him, "It's five or six," but saying this seemed too perverted, so he thought about it and let it go.

Zuo Lingquan naturally couldn't brag about how many wives he had, so he shook his head and changed the topic:

"Let's go."

After Miss Qiu recovered from the shock, she focused all her attention on Jing Xun. She could see that Jingxun Daoxing had not reached the Jade level, and his pace and breath did not look like a tyrannical martial arts cultivator or sorcerer, so she couldn't help but feel a little hesitant:

"This trip is not a child's play. Miss Jingxun will follow you, is that okay?"

Xie Qiutao smiled and said, "If Sister Jingxun doesn't follow, Mr. Zuo and I won't dare to run around. Senior Sister Qiu, don't underestimate Sister Jingxun."

Miss Qiu was dubious: "Isn't Miss Jingxun a doctor?"

"Jiji~"

Tuanzi shook his head quickly, indicating that his mother was only good at cremating people and not rescuing them, but was slapped on the head by Jingxun.

Zuo Lingquan knew that Miss Qiu was worried, so he smiled and said:

"Miss Qiu will know Jingxun's abilities in the future, so let's go first."

Miss Qiu knew that Zuo Lingquan was not a stunned young man who was leading the girl blindly, so she stopped talking and instead looked at Jing Xun secretly. The meaning in her eyes was obviously:

This girl doesn't look strong. She competes with Shangguan Lingye for favor, so she must be kept submissive. Why does she dare to call herself sister outside...
