The Glass Maiden

Chapter 45 Floating Jade Island (4)

After Mrs. Dongfang left, Xuanji and Yu Sifeng focused their attention on Manager Ouyang. First, they wanted to see what made Dongfang Qingqi such a good man frustrated in love; second, they wanted to know what he had. Well, it makes a generation of beautiful women so in love.

Then Ouyang was expressionless, and first poured a glass of wine by himself, his voice was low, and he respectfully said, "Ouyang respects the two young heroes."

Yu Sifeng smiled and said, "Thank you Ouyang for taking care of things... The younger brother took the liberty to call Ouyang Brother. He is so young that he is the chief steward of an island. It is really admirable."

He used words to spy and saw how he reacted. Who knew Ouyang's whole body was made of stone, dull, only dare not to be ashamed, and looked like an honest person. The two of them previously only regarded this person as loyal, but they must have a lot of tongues, so they can deal with the island owner and his wife without any flaws. It turned out to be wrong.

Dongfang Qingqi patted Ouyang on the shoulder. He was about to raise his head to drink. After being patted by him, the cup shook, and he immediately choked and coughed, and the scars on his face became even more red.

"Hahaha, Ouyang, Ouyang, don’t be so cautious! How can you choke after drinking? You’re all told to do the exercises with me, you just refuse... You know... what, yes, nothing One is a scholar! It's okay to practice swords with me!"

Ouyang easily coughed out the wine from the choking intake pipe, and shook his head, hoarsely saying, "Master Xie loves him, Ouyang is not a martial artist..."

Dongfang Qingqi sighed and shook his head: "You worked hard for me on the island, and you will be leaving in a few days, but I didn't give you any benefit. Ouyang, you should know that most people outside are bullying and bullying. You are a scholar, and you have no power to bind a chicken, how can I rest assured to let you go."

When the two people on the other side heard that he was leaving, they couldn't help but change their expressions. Yu Sifeng hurriedly said, "Why, is Ouyang going to leave Fuyu Island?"

Ouyang Nene nodded and said in a low voice, "My brother is seriously ill, and my mother is old. I really can't rest assured and can only go home."

It turned out he was leaving! It's no wonder that Mrs. Dongfang is so sad, and it must be because of her recent emotional instability that the Dongfang Island owner can see the clues. It's a pity that he treats Ouyang as his own brother, and he didn't even suspect that he was involved, leaving those disciples to bear the debt for nothing.

Dongfang Qingqi said in a deep voice: "I asked you to bring your mother and your eldest brother to the island, and Qingrong and I will take care of them. Why do you refuse! Could it be that Fuyu Island has lost you and what can't you do? Leave in such a hurry!"

Ouyang hurriedly folded his hands over his waist and said, "Master! Don't misunderstand! Just because the ancestral tombs are in their hometown, how can they move without permission? What's more, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and the mother and the mother are unwilling to leave their hometowns. Although Fuyu Island is good, the journey is far away. Tossing...Being down the love of the master, Ouyang was ashamed."

"Never mind, it's up to you!" Dongfang Qingqi waved his hand, feeling somewhat distracted, and said: "You have helped me a lot these years. Don't mention the word master again, call me big brother!"

Ouyang's eyes hurt, and his throat choked. After a long time, he whispered: "Big Brother...I..."

Dongfang Qingqi took the jug by himself, filled him with a glass, and smiled: "Why be sad, the man is in every direction. Come, Ouyang, do this glass! Big brother, I hope you will flourish in the future, and you will enjoy a great reputation!"

The two of them drank a toast of Chinese wine in one sip, and they were all refreshing.

When Dongfang Qingqi almost drank ten jars of Baihua Qinglu wine, Mrs. Dongfang came again. I think I still can't rest assured, come and have a look. When I saw my husband lying on the stone table drunk, he was already dim, and he couldn't help but frown, "Why drink so much again... I don't care about my body!"

Dongfang Qingqi vaguely heard his wife talking, couldn't help but raised her head and smirked, and muttered: "Qing Rong...Qing Rong, do you still care about me? You..."

Mrs. Dongfang sighed, then turned around and told the disciples outside the pavilion: "Your master has drunk too much, Haosheng sent him to the bedroom to rest, and let the kitchen make some sober soup."

The disciples hurriedly agreed to come up and help. Although Dongfang Qingqi was drunk and "fascinated", there was a string in his heart that was tense. He regretted losing his stance after drinking in front of the junior, so he obediently let the disciples help away. I turned around and smiled and said, "Si Feng, Xiao Xuanji...I am having fun today. Next time, I will have another thirty altars with your master and dad!"

The two of them had to reluctantly agreed. Seeing that only Mrs. Dongfang and Mrs. Ouyang were left in the pavilion, one looked at each other directly, while the other pretended not to see it, and bowed his heads to clean up the remaining dishes and chopsticks in a completely avoiding state.

"The younger generation is rude and can't beat alcohol, so I went to rest."

When Yu Sifeng saw that it was unnecessary for them to keep it for this meeting, he quickly retreated and pulled Xuanji. Both of them pretended to drink too much, walked out staggeringly, and went back to the room by themselves.

Ouyang lowered his head and slowly packed his cups, as if he didn't know that someone behind him was staring at him.

He will always be an innocent look unconsciously. If you are anxious, he doesn't understand; you are angry, but he looks at you helplessly; if you cry, he can only comfort you silently. He is just a swallow of warm water, feeling warm when it is cold, but cold when it is hot.

Mrs. Dongfang's gaze slowly drifted away from his silent and expressionless face, and then slid down to his hand that was clearing the cup. His hand is a little unstable, and occasionally he accidentally drops his chopsticks.

"You..." she murmured, dragging an ending, but didn't continue.

Ouyang shook his hand slightly, put the cup on the table, turned around and saluted, and asked respectfully: "What's your order, Madam?"

She frowned slightly, bit her lip, and whispered embarrassedly, "Really?"

Ouyang replied neatly: "I have been away from home for ten years, and it's time to go back to take care of my mother."

She didn't believe it, she looked at him fixedly, her eyes brighter than the bright stars. "What mother... Where do you come from..." Her voice was soft, almost seductive.

The existence of her beauty is like a sin, which is both "fascinating" and frightening. Ouyang lowered his head and backed up two steps, "Where do people come from without the blood of father, mother, and mother. Madam laughs, naturally I also have parents."

Mrs. Dongfang looked at him sadly, stretched out her long black hair like a cloud, and sighed: "Still lying to me. Then I ask you, who is more important, your mother and me? You are leaving, I will die of."

You are leaving, I will die. She has said this countless times, and now Ouyang only smiles bitterly, muttering: "Madam, don't want to laugh again, I...can't afford it."

"What can't you afford? You liar."

A pair of soft arms wrapped around his neck, and the nephrite jade snuggled up against him, enough to make steel into a soft finger.

Ouyang seemed to freeze, staring at an unknown place in the distance, as if the peerless beauty in his arms was just a piece of wood. She pressed her ears, and said a lot of whispering words, meaningless, but confusing.

He was stunned for a while, and finally pushed her away gently, and bowed his head and said, "Madam...please take care of yourself. The island owner is a once-in-a-lifetime great man. You must not lose your heart for a moment of greed."

She was not annoyed, and giggled, "I don't want that great man, I don't want you."

Ouyang had long been accustomed to her frivolous and fragrant speech, and without answering her, he cleaned up the cups on the stone table and picked up the octagonal pavilion. Halfway through, she heard her smile from behind: "It's useless for you to go, I want to follow you. I'll go wherever you go. You leave Fuyu Island, and I will leave Fuyu Island."

He paused and said softly, "Madam, stop being playful. Don't forget the disciples who were innocently driven away by the island owner. They still don't know the reason for their expulsion."

The peerless beauty in the pavilion didn't have any heart, and smiled lightly and said: "They were driven away for me, and it was their glory."

Ouyang didn't speak any more, and quickly left the Octagonal Pavilion. When I walked far away, I heard someone singing, and the voice became more and more tragic. The sound of the wind blew, and he faintly heard sentences like "a gentleman" and "like gold as tin, like gyu like bi". His wrists tremble again, and the cup almost smashes to the ground.

In the next few days, as Dongfang Qingqi was busy preparing for the hairpin conference, Xuanji and Yu Sifeng were not happy to always disturb him, so they simply had fun on the island and were keen to explore the things they had never been to. The place and scenery "color", but also found a lot of picturesque beauty on the island, life is happy.

The only thing that worries them is the disciples who are still waiting for news in Fuyu Town. Given that this matter is not something upright and upright such as demons and demons, it involves other people's housework, and besides, they are juniors, they have not found a chance to speak these days.

Fortunately, there are a lot of preparations for the hairpin conference. The martial arts field in the east has to be rebuilt. Dongfang Qingqi is busy going around there every day, but it is temporarily peaceful with his disciples, and there is no rush.

On this day, Xuanji and Yu Sifeng woke up early again. They went to the mountains to the north for a stroll. If they were hungry, they would eat some wild fruits, and if they were thirsty, they would drink some mountain streams. They did not stop along the way. Just climbed to the top of the mountain.

The mountain is lush and verdant, and outside the verdant, there is a blue "color" like boundless gems. It is the sea. This is the highest place on Fuyu Island. There is no shelter from all sides. The wind is blowing from all directions, impacting on the face of the body, and the clothes are flying, giving an illusion of flying in the air.

"Sifeng, isn't the sea at Lize Palace so beautiful?" Xuanji stood at the highest point-a small stone stacked on a large rock. There was a little unstable there. The stone was trembling, and it would slide down at any time. In the abyss. But she actually stood extremely steady, not shaking.

Yu Sifeng knew that she had a great effort to lighten her body, so she didn’t worry, she just smiled and said, “The sea away from Ze Palace is wider, but it’s cloudy for most of the year, so the sea is gray. It's rare to see such a beautiful blue "color"."

"Then next time I can go and see it?" Xuan Ji suddenly regretted after finishing. She remembered the rules of Lize Palace, it seemed that no woman could enter, and disciples could not get married.

"Uh, you think I didn't say hello." She laughed at herself.

Yu Sifeng curled his lips slightly and said, "If you want to see it, I can take you there."

Xuanzhen was stunned for a moment, and finally realized that he agreed to take her to see Lize Palace, and couldn't help clapping her hands and exclaiming: "Really you can go? Then how did you not go before!"

He didn't answer, but said: "There is no splendid scenery there, I'm afraid it will disappoint you."

"Actually, there is no disappointment or hope." Xuanji stood tired, turned over and jumped off the rock lightly, fell beside him, and watched the vast sea below with him, "I just want to see Chief Si Feng. What a big place is like."

Yu Sifeng was startled, and finally "touched" his nose, muttering: "The place I grew up...you can't go anymore."

"Why?" Xuanji's ears were pointed, and when he heard his mumbling, she quickly asked.

He thought for a while and smiled: "Because outsiders are definitely not allowed in there. Well, especially..." He looked at Xuanji up and down, "Especially a little girl like you, absolutely can't get in."

Sure enough, there are a bunch of strange precepts in Lize Palace, which are almost unheard of. She didn't bother to ask any more, spread her hands and watched the silk on her sleeves fluttering and twisting and twisting in a funny way, making her smile slightly.

"In fact, is there any place in the world that you can't go?" She said, "As long as it exists, you can go. Many people like to divide a place for themselves. If others can't come in, he won't go out. I did too. This way. But now I think it’s not a big deal. If you stick to that place, you will only have that little freedom. But if you have the whole world in your heart, then you are the freest person. Would you say it, Si Feng ?"

Yu Sifeng raised his eyebrows and gave her a "look" of approval, admiring her very much, "Did you think of this by yourself?" His intuition is unlikely. Xuanji is not the kind of person who is willing to ponder the truth of life. People.

Sure enough, she smiled and said, "Master said it, I will show it off."

Yu Sifeng stretched his waist, looked at the sky, and said, "It's getting late. Let's go."

"Where to go?"

"The owner of Dongfang Island has been very busy recently. Let's trouble him to "work" for himself if we don't do anything. Isn't it okay to go to Fuyu Town for lunch? There are many delicious foods you haven't tasted.

Speaking of eating, Xuanji naturally raised her hands and feet in favor, but...

"How do you tell those Fuyu Island disciples?" They agreed to their request, but there was no good time to speak for so many days.

Yu Sifeng shook his head: "No hurry. Let them wait. Anyway, before leaving Fuyu Island, they must do this well."
