Chapter 179 Shelter from wind and rain
The morning breeze is cool, dewdrops fall from time to time on the jujube trees, and there are birds chirping crisply around.
Lin Bai sat cross-legged, smelling of alcohol, looking like he was hungover from a night of drinking.
The sexy fox came to the door last night and vowed to "thank" her, and Gu Yao came this morning.
The two must be related. Lin Bai felt that maybe the fox felt that it was a bad thing, and wanted to compensate for it, and wanted to pull the red line?
Lin Bai looked at Gu Yao. This eldest sister looked very good, with a well-proportioned figure and a not bad personality.
Just compared to her ancestor, she was a little behind.
This fox is already a Nascent Soul, so even if he is a pimp, he is not even talking about pimping someone of the same level!
"Ahem..." Lin Bai picked up the wine gourd, took a sip, and asked, "What does senior sister mean?"
"That's what I mean." Gu Yao smiled, looked around, and asked, "Drinking all night last night? Is that little bitch Yang Bing here?"
"Of course I'm here." Lin Bai replied honestly.
"Yang Huan must be here too. She can't be drunk. Why hasn't she seen anyone?" Gu Yao asked curiously.
"Go back to your room and rest." Lin Bai's expression remained unchanged.
Gu Yao nodded and stared at Lin Bai for a while.
Lin Bai felt uncomfortable being looked at and asked: "Last night, Patriarch Shen Yu was looking for you?"
"Why is she looking for me?" Gu Yao shook her head and said, "Let's go back and talk." She raised her eyebrows again, "Aren't you going to say goodbye to your sister Huanhuan?"
Not a fox pulling strings? Lin Bai pressed his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's right. Just wait a moment."
He turned around and went to the room. Sister Huanhuan was still asleep. He pinched her face and gained another trace of spiritual power.
After a few breaths, Yang Huan woke up.
She was dazed, opened her eyes and looked at Lin Bai, with a look of shame on her face, as if she was remembering what happened last night.
He quickly got up, looked around the room, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no more naughty foxes.
"She has already left." Lin Bai pinched her face again and said with a smile: "I will go back to Qingyun Mountain first and come back to find you later."
"Ancestor Shen Yu didn't embarrass you, did he?" Yang Huan came back to his senses with a concerned look on his face.
Sister Huanhuan is so kind. Lin Bai grabbed her hand, dispersed the mist, and said: "Just a mere Li Chenyu, I scolded her away a long time ago, and she doesn't dare to come back again."
"Next time I want to see what you say about her." Yang Huan smiled.
Lin Bai also smiled, chatted with her for a few more words, and walked out.
Someone came outside unexpectedly, it was Yang Bing, and Gu Yao was scolding her angrily.
I don't know if they have any dirty things, Lin Bai doesn't care, just watch.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, when the two women were tired of scolding, Gu Yao took Lin Bai away.
The two wandered back to Qingyun Mountain, fell to the ground, and walked up the mountain.
"Go to my place and talk." Gu Yao led the way, humming something unknown.
Lin Bai observed secretly and felt that Gu Yao was happy but not shy. It shouldn't be pimping, let alone borrowing seeds.
When we reached the mountainside, we saw no houses or tiles, but entered a damp cave.
After only a few steps, he saw a door blocking the way. Gu Yao took the next step from her head and shook it gently, and the door opened.
The space inside is not big, but it is full of energy.
About three feet in radius, there is a water line on the top that slopes down and falls into a small pool in the cave.
There are futons, wooden tables and wooden benches next to it, which is very simple.
After closing the door, the two sat down and Gu Yao poured tea again.
"This is the ancestor's seat, don't worry about others prying." Gu Yao smiled.
Is this a big deal? Lin Bai sat up straight, expecting something in his heart.
"This is a gift from the ancestor." Gu Yao took out a straw rope bracelet and held it out with both hands. "Keep it with you at all times. If you are in danger, as long as you are in Qiaoshan, the ancestor will arrive within five breaths. If you are in Elsewhere, even if the ancestor cannot arrive, he can protect you for a while.”
Lin Bai understood that the fox had really pulled the pimp out, but it was not Gu Yao but Aunt Gu.
What he did was probably due to his ability to perform deductions in isolation.
And what Aunt Gu is talking about is self-evident, it is Jiuyin Mountain.
Nascent Soul monks have a long lifespan, and their methods are versatile and powerful. They can defeat enemies, but they are not easy to kill.
Therefore, if Nascent Soul takes action, he must make a plan before taking action. It is not uncommon to wait for decades or hundreds of years, and he must kill with one strike.
Of course, there are some who are reckless, but they are in the minority. Or perhaps the individual's Taoism is extremely high.
Moreover, it is extremely difficult to plot against Nascent Soul. Because when Nascent Soul monks reach the mid-to-late stage realm, they can understand the changes in the world, touch the principles of the Tao, and borrow a little of the true meaning of the Tao.
Because of this, monks in the middle and late stages of Nascent Soul can still feel it all the time even if they don't know the way of numerology. If someone intends to murder and can threaten his life, then he will feel it in his heart.
Of course, different levels of cultivation will lead to different feelings. Some middle-stage Nascent Souls with low cultivation and insufficient magical power can only feel it vaguely, like seeing flowers in the mist.
And some monks with advanced cultivation in the late Yuan Ying period will feel it in their hearts if someone calls them names or writes their names and titles, and they can even trace their names.
Therefore, if you want to kill the mid- to late-stage Nascent Soul, regardless of the level of the opponent's Taoism, the layout alone is much more difficult and there are many variables. If it is the initial state, it will be much simpler.
Because of this, even if there is a lot of turmoil between the three Yuanying sects, there are very few Yuanyings who directly come into play. Firstly, it is difficult to kill, and secondly, the higher one's level is, the more one cherishes one's life. Unless it is a matter of great importance, one rarely goes to great lengths.
Now that Aunt Gu sees that she can isolate herself from deductions and is not limited by the yin and yang of numerology, she can calmly plan her revenge.
Lin Bai knew that after receiving the bracelet, it would be difficult to get rid of the Gu family in the future, and he would even be involved in the Nascent Soul battle!
Of course, when Gu Yao took out this thing, she no longer had the right to refuse.
Stinky fox! I worshiped you like a fairy and left everything to you, but you turned around and sold me to Aunt Gu! Lin Bai scolded the fox a hundred times in his heart.
"What virtue and ability am I?"
Lin Bai knew that he could not refuse Yuanying, but he could still bargain. If you can't pick out the fox fur, you can't drink a few sips of Aunt Gu's water?
"Ancestor gave it to you, just accept it with peace of mind." Gu Yao directly took Lin Bai's hand and put the grass ring on it, "Ancestor said that you have made great contributions and cannot be regarded as an outsider. In the future, you will be your own nephew. . It certainly requires a lot of attention.”
Speaking of this, Gu Yao looked at Lin Bai's wrist longingly and sighed: "Neither Feixue nor I have it. Only by entering the Golden Core realm can we get the gift from our ancestors. You are really lucky." Her words were quite sour.
Do you want this blessing? Lin Bai understood that Gu Yao didn't know the inside story, so he didn't say anything more. He just thought that if he met a fox in the future, he would definitely pick her hair out.
"Da Gu...what else did Patriarch Gu say?" Lin Bai looked at the grass ring on his wrist, knowing that it was a life-saving thing and it was also the chain that Aunt Gu held in her hand.
"The ancestor said that it is dangerous outside, so you'd better not leave the Qiaoshan area." Gu Yao stared at Lin Bai, and then continued: "He also said that the body tempering method you practiced is very good, and there is no need to go there in the future. Fengming Mountain, just come to Qingyun Mountain.”
The fox sold Lin Bai cleanly.
"Thank you, ancestor." Lin Bai still wanted to thank her.
"My family, you're welcome." Gu Yao smiled.
"What else did the ancestor say?" Lin Bai asked.
"I don't have much to say, I just want you to practice with peace of mind." Gu Yao said.
"Senior sister, my ancestor is so kind to me, can I thank you in person?" Lin Bai nodded and decided to accept his fate.
Since you can't escape, enjoy it.
Now that you have accepted your fate, let's show your loyalty and meet Aunt Gu again to see what her attitude is.
"Wait a moment." Gu Yao stood up, came to the small pool in the cave, reached into the pool and stirred it. Said: "Ancestor, Yun Zhonghe wants to thank you in person."
It turned out that this water belonged to Gu Qingshui. Lin Bai didn't know when he would be qualified to disturb Aunt Gu's water.
Soon, Gu Yao took back her hand, smiled at Lin Bai, and said, "Ancestor promised to see you." Before Lin Bai could respond, he felt wrapped in water, confused and confused, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already Arriving at the water curtain cave.
Hearing the sound of water surging, Gu Qingshui was the only one here.
She was seen sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, wearing a green robe and her hair disheveled, just like before.
"Lin Zhuanlun," Gu Qingshui opened her eyes and heard a faint voice. Her eyes were emotionless and she just stared at Lin Bai and said, "Do you know what I mean?"
This fox even had the nickname Lin Bai spread out, he really didn't deserve to be a human being.
"Junior can guess a thing or two." Lin Bai leaned over and saluted, and said: "Junior has received a lot of favors from the Gu family, and now that my ancestor is so kind to me, I..." Lin Bai's eyes turned red, and he felt so grateful that he was so grateful. He said, "Ancestor, as long as I have a destiny, I will do my best without hesitation!"
When Gu Qingshui heard this, her eyes moved, and her slightly thin body leaned forward slightly.
Lin Bai's expression of generosity has not faded away. Seeing that Gu Qingshui seemed to be smiling, he knew that his loyalty was fulfilled.
"Just now, Li Chenyu imitated you, and it was exactly the same as what you said." Gu Qingshui said.
Is this fox sick? You ruined my good things last night, and today I show my loyalty, and you are here to harm me? Lin Bai didn't dare to say anything anymore. He just bowed his head and behaved like a shame.
"There is something going on with the Zhutian family, and I know you are uneasy." Gu Qingshui said softly, "Raise your head."
Lin Bai obediently raised his head and saw Gu Qingshui's deep eyes.
"My Gu family will never let anyone down. If the Zhutian family is harmed, I will protect them from the wind and rain in the future." Gu Qingshui slowly said, "As long as you work wholeheartedly, I will also protect you from the wind and rain whenever I am around in the future." Rain.”
"This junior will live up to the expectations of our ancestors!" Lin Bai bowed again, decisively.
Gu Qingshui nodded slightly and said no more.
"Ancestor..."
Lin Bai knew it was time to leave, so he quickly asked: "Ancestor, may I ask where Fairy Shen Yu is? I still want to say a few words to her." His tone was honest and courteous.
"She asked me to tell you that you are not satisfied with your desires and ask for a lot, so she dare not see you." Gu Qingshui said.
This fox talks so nicely! Lin Bai leaned over and thanked him.
Leave this place and return to Gu Yao's cave.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Bai talked about the flying knife and Feiyun flag again, but Gu Yao only said that she would take care of it.
"When will you go back?" After talking about business, Gu Yao chatted.
"I'll go back after one more day of drinking." Lin Bai said honestly.
"I'll go with you." Gu Yao smiled.
The two of them sat and talked again, and in the afternoon, they went to look for Yang Huan.
Many children of the Yang family gathered together, and Gu Yao and Yang Bing kept drinking. You called me coquettish, and I called you cheap.
When night fell, Lin Bai and Yang Huan chatted among themselves again.
"Sister Huanhuan, don't listen to Fairy Shen Yu's nonsense. You can't be a bad person."
"Sister Huanhuan, you are so kind."
The good things continued, there was a lot of fuss, and the feelings of parting were told harshly.
After daybreak, Lin Bai went to find Zhu Jianyang again and invited him to go home with him.
"I have asked Yuhuan to go home to deliver the message." Zhu Jianyang did not leave, "I plan to meditate here for some days, and also consult with Senior Jiuchong from time to time."
The previous time Zhu saw the sheep being beaten at Mianlong Mountain, this time he was beaten again at Cangyun Gate, and he had gained something.
Lin Bai thought about it, he had been beaten severely by foxes, and he had not even caught half of his hair.
After bidding farewell to Zhu Jian Yang, Gu Yao personally sent Lin Bai home.
The two chatted all the way back to Xinyi Square and came to Jiangjiadong Mansion.
From a distance, I saw someone waiting at the entrance of the cave. They were Miaomiao and Jiang Yu.
"Master!" Miaomiao's tears immediately fell down. She ran forward in a panic and hugged Lin Bai's arm. "I thought Master didn't want Miaomiao anymore." She cried, tears and snot running down her nose.
"Okay, don't cry." Lin Bai wiped her tears, but Miaomiao became more and more energetic.
"Senior." Jiang Yu saluted Lin Bai and Gu Yao in a polite manner.
Miaomiao wiped her tears and snot on Lin Bai's sleeves before saluting Gu Yao.
"The relationship between master and disciple is deep." Gu Yao lamented, "If you are not a person who values love and righteousness, how can you teach a disciple who values love and righteousness?"
After she finished speaking, she took out two swords and gave them to Miaomiao and Jiang Yu. "A little gadget, as a meeting gift."
The two little girls thanked them again.
"This," Gu Yao took out another wooden box, handed it to Lin Bai, and said, "The alchemy method passed down in the family may be beneficial to you. There are also some spiritual materials and herbs for you to practice. If it is missing some other time, , just ask Miaomiao to find me.”
"You're too polite." As soon as Lin Bai said something, Miaomiao stepped forward and took it respectfully.
Lin Bai finally understood the usefulness of a beloved disciple.
After chatting for a few more words, Gu Yao left on her own, and Lin Bai didn't mention anyone staying for tea.
"Senior, Senior Pei and my sister have been waiting in Yuhu for a long time." Jiang Yu said with a smile.
"Master, sister Xiaoyu'er and I have been waiting for you to come back every day." Miaomiao sniffed and wiped away tears again.
The three of them walked to Yuhu together. Miaomiao asked as they walked: "Master, is it my father's revenge? I had a nightmare more than a month ago. When I woke up, I only felt peaceful and gentle, as if I had no regrets in my heart."
"That's right." Lin Bai secretly recited a sentence about father and daughter's heart-to-heart. He did not go into details, but changed the subject and asked: "Have you been paying attention to your homework recently?"
"Master, I practice meditation every day without delay." Miao Miao said with a smile.
"Seriously?" Lin Bai looked at Jiang Yu, an honest man.
"Indeed." Jiang Yu nodded honestly.
"That's good." Lin Bai felt relieved and reminded the two girls, "You two are young, don't relax or be playful."
"Yes." The two women were very well-behaved.
When Lin Bai saw this, he felt that it was more important to let Miaomiao know that everything he had to eat and live in was hard-earned.
"When I was a teacher, I was addicted to learning when I was a child. My family was poor and I had no way to read the scriptures to read them. Every time I borrowed them from the scripture collection house, I wrote them down by hand and counted the days to return them. It was very cold, the inkstone was hard, and my fingers could not bend or stretch, so I didn't let it go. ”
Lin Bai taught very seriously and said sincerely: "Now the place where you live is surrounded by Zhi Ting Lan, waterside pavilions and beautiful rooms, which are a hundred times better than what I used to have. There is no shortage of pills and teachings. If you have people traveling with you, you should pay more attention. .”
"It turns out that seniors still have such experience, Jiang Yu can learn from it." Jiang Yu is an honest child.
"Good." Lin Bai was very satisfied and looked at Miaomiao again.
"Master," Miaomiao frowned, looked up at Lin Bai, and asked, "Is it true or false?"
"Why have I ever lied to you?" Lin Bai glared at her.
"Master, you said before that you refine weapons to support your family. I asked my wife a few days ago and she said that you weave mats and sell shoes to support your family, which is not considered weapon refinement." Miao Miao laughed.
I can't live this day! Sister Pei only wants to cause trouble, but how will she teach her disciples in the future?
"Master," Miao Miao took out a bamboo hat from the storage ring with a smile and said in a soft voice, "I picked Hsinchu and made bamboo strips, especially for Master. Master, please don't think my skills are poor." She raised her head. , with red eyes, "Master protects me from wind and rain. I will make a bamboo hat for Master. I only hope that Master will survive less wind and rain."
