Chapter 172 Torture!
What?
The only daughter of King Pingxi?
Xie Yuan was stunned when he heard this and stopped immediately.
Seeing that Xie Yuan did not follow, the steward turned around and urged:
"Zhang Shan, why are you still here? Don't keep your distinguished guests waiting for too long and say we are rude!"
Xie Yuan scratched the back of his head and said hesitantly:
"Such a noble lady , why did you suddenly come to our sect?”
He addressed Situ Qin as if he had never seen her before, and he was extremely affectionate to Yunshan Sword Sect. His acting skills have been honed for so long, and he is already very good.
The steward shook his head:
"We don't know, maybe she wants to use the sect's land to practice? Anyway, Xue Yanwen brought her up, and brought a lot of luggage, big and small, and is looking for someone to help move it. Yunshan is vast, and there is no shortage. A girl’s place of practice.”
With so much luggage, do you want to stay for a long time?
Xie Yuan had some vague guesses about Situ Qin’s purpose and twitched his brows.
Somehow, he always felt like he was trying to find someone to blame...
That’s all, I haven’t seen Situ Qin for a long time. Anyway, she couldn’t recognize her now, so she just happened to go first. Spying on information.
Xie Yuan followed the steward to a guest house halfway up the mountain. He followed the mountain path, crossed the clear stream, and arrived at an exquisite courtyard nestled between two peaks and surrounded by flowers.
Xie Yuan had not known that there was such an exquisite and quiet guest house on Yunshan Mountain before. It seemed that it was specially prepared for distinguished guests.
Before he even reached the door, Xie Yuan saw Xue Yanwen coming out from afar, with a look of confusion on his face.
"Yanwen."
"I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
The steward and Xie Yuan greeted each other.
Xue Yanwen came back to his senses and waved his hands indifferently:
"It's all about practicing in the mountains. Just call me senior brother, but don't call me your highness. Well, I heard that you are very agile. , Are you smart? It doesn’t look like...that’s all. Can you please help Qinmei unload it? Baggage, you don’t need to do anything else.”
Of course he didn’t recognize Xie Yuan, waved his hand, and left, muttering:
“Come here. Just drive me away, why do I feel like I am being used as a tool..."
Xie Yuan followed the steward into the courtyard. With a glance, he saw two large loads of luggage placed in the courtyard, while Situ Qin and the housekeeper were standing beside them.
Today, Situ Qin is wearing a light yellow skirt with a belt of the same color around her waist, which makes her waist as slender as a willow and as full as a hand; her hair is combed into a bun, which highlights the girl's agility, beauty and bright eyes. His teeth are white, his cheeks are like new lychees, his nose is greasy with goose fat, and his facial features are so beautiful that they are unlike anything human beings should have, taking your breath away.
Especially the big eyes, which are very smart. Before the small mouth opens, the words seem to be spoken as soon as the eyes turn.
Xie Yuan felt that Situ Qin seemed to have become a little prettier after not seeing each other for a long time. I wonder if it was an illusion that they hadn’t seen each other for a long time.
He glanced at it for a few times, but it seemed like he was being exposed or being rude, so he kept his eyes open, his nose and his heart, waiting for the steward to say a few polite words to Situ Qin, and then he told himself not to neglect the distinguished guest, leaving him behind and left.
Xie Yuan bowed his head and said in a muffled voice:
"I wonder what Miss Situ needs to do here? Can you unload this luggage first?"
He lowered his head and didn't see Situ Qin's pair. Her beautiful eyes looked him up and down, scrutinizing.
With a quick turn of his eyes, Situ Qin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, clasping his little hands behind his back, he said slowly:
“Tou Xie, how long are you going to pretend to be with me?”
"Ah?"
Xie Yuan suddenly raised his head, looked at Situ Qin with a smile in his eyes, scratched his head awkwardly, and asked:
"Miss Qin, how did you recognize me? "
Situ Qin's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands excitedly, and said with a smile:
"I didn't recognize it, but now I'm sure it's you! Mr. Xie, you're so good at disguise. It’s really hard to see any flaws!”
"Huh?"
Xie Yuan groaned again and was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:
"So you are deceiving me? What do you think..."
"Yes. Yeah!”
Situ Qin said proudly:
"Based on your temperament, I guess you started working as a handyman when you came to the mountain, so I found an excuse for the prince to call the new handyman to help. But there are so many handymen, how can I find you?
"According to my opinion, no matter how low-key Mr. Xie is, real gold will always shine, so he asked for the best and smartest person recently to come and test him casually, and it turned out to be you! "
Seeing Situ Qin's triumphant and elated little appearance, Xie Yuan shook his head, accepted the Tianyin Technique, and praised:
"As expected of Miss Qin, she is smart and has a lot of tricks! "
Situ Qin's eyes lit up again when he saw Xie Yuan showing his true appearance. Even the housekeeper looked at him twice and was a little surprised when she saw his skills.
However, Situ Qin's smile faded as soon as it faded. He snorted and crossed his arms:
"Don't flatter me! How could I have found you if I didn't put in some effort?"
Xie Yuan laughed sarcastically. ：
"When I learn that Miss Qin is going up the mountain, I will definitely find a chance to meet you."
"Really? Then I haven't seen you write me a letter for such a long time. I wonder if Mr. Xie is there?" What are you busy with?”
Situ Qin stared at him and said in a faint tone.
Xie Yuan felt that Situ Qin’s eyes were frighteningly bright, and his vest was slightly numb:
“Well, you know, things are too complicated and complicated recently...”
“ Of course I know that Biaotou Xie is busy living and flying with the talented female master of the Mu family, spending life and death together, and doing many great things. How can he remember me, a little girl who can only play the piano? "
Situ Qinnan? Chirping said.
As soon as she said the words, she was immediately annoyed. It was not her intention to speak like this. Situ Qin is not a stingy person, and he has never understood the politeness of many women's grievances.
But when she saw Xie Yuan, she was happy but also had a lot of inexplicable resentment. When she opened her mouth, she became the kind of woman she had looked down on before. The mouth can hang an oil can. Xie Yuan was already sweating a little when he heard this.
Wiping the non-existent sweat from his forehead with his hands, he said quietly:
"No, no, no, no, sleeping and flying together is too much... before and after the escort agency Now that I think about it, it’s more like fate and I can’t help myself.”
When Xie Yuan said this, he sighed slightly. Longteng Escort seems to have been destined to live and die because of the Mu family.
Situ Qin heard his melancholy and lost his temper. He frowned and said:
“When I went to look for you, something had happened in the escort agency. I didn’t even know what was going on. I'm confused now, although I have a rough idea. It’s all smoke and mirrors... Would you like to tell me about it?”
Xie Yuan nodded:
“Of course, a lot has happened during this period, so let’s just tell it as a story. Let’s listen to Miss Qin.”
"That's good. Let me pack my luggage, make a pot of tea, have some refreshments, and chat while we eat."
Situ Qin clapped his hands and packed his luggage with the housekeeper. Xie Yuan also said to help, but Situ Qin rolled his eyes at him:
"You also want to move my daughter's things? You may not be as strong as I am with this small amount of luggage. You are just looking for a way to support it. Come here."
Xie Yuan retracted his hands, looking at Situ Qin's brisk movements, his brows slowly raised:
"Miss Qin, I think something is wrong, have you made a breakthrough? ”
"That's right!"
Situ Qin saw what he discovered, straightened up and put his hands on his hips, smiling and said:
"Now I am Situ Qin in the Qi-Blood Transformation Stage. What changes can you see?" ”
Xie Yuan looked up and down and saw Situ Qin’s bright smile, which made people’s hearts beat faster. Although the pretty girl from before had a beautiful smile, she didn't make people's hearts flutter so much. She felt... a little more feminine?
He looked at it again and said in surprise:
"Miss Qin, have you grown taller?"
"A little bit. The transformation of Qi and blood will slightly change the body shape and appearance. Otherwise, how can we call transformation? So I was suppressing it before and didn't want to be promoted. I I don’t want to grow old.”
Situ Qin made a “little bit” sign with her thumb and index finger.
Xie Yuan wondered:
“It’s just a joke...but since you don’t like it, why did you suddenly break through?”
Situ Qin didn't answer for a while, and straightened his hair as if nothing had happened, and then said:
"You were hunted before, and I wanted Taibo to help you, but it took time because I couldn't protect myself, so I felt I am too weak to help."
This... So, she is trying to help me?
Xie Yuan's heart suddenly felt hot.
The tone of such words is plain, but it is more touching than any other skills and treasures.
Xie Yuan looked at Situ Qin who had become more mature and said seriously:
"Miss Qin, you should have made a breakthrough long ago! I think you are more beautiful now."
"Really? Looks better than before?”
Situ Qin’s eyes lit up.
Xie Yuan nodded sincerely:
"Yes. She was pretty and cute before, but now she is beautiful, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away."
This wording is not clever, but it focuses on sincerity.
Situ Qin smiled happily when he heard this, and wanted to tease Xie Yuan again. Looking at his sincere eyes, his cheeks turned red for some reason, feeling inexplicably shy.
Strange, before he said I was good-looking, I was generous and let him look at me, but now I feel so strange...
The two of them suddenly became quiet, and the air gradually rose. Some inexplicable smells.
"Miss, everything is packed, you can go in and have tea."
The housekeeper suddenly appeared and said softly.
The two of them seemed to be waking up from a dream, nodded slightly uncomfortably, and went into the room to drink tea.
After entering the room and sitting down, Xie Yuan took a sip of tea, organized his conversation, and started talking about Mu Chaoyun's defection. He rambled on about the destruction of the Mu family, the reasons for the escort agency, and the details of the pursuit. Tell them one by one.
But when it came to the Black Sky Book, it was summed up as a rare treasure, and Situ Qin was too sensible to ask any questions. As for the details about his relationship with Mu Chaoyun, he simply brushed it off. Situ Qin He stared at him with sharp eyes.
Xie Yuan was stared at by Situ Qin's big talking eyes and felt guilty. He speeded up the progress and drank tea and concluded:
"...I will send you a letter after I kill Yu Chunsheng and come back to Yunshan Mountain. , prepare to practice seriously here for a while.”
It’s not that he is unwilling to share the Black Sky Book with Situ Qin, it’s just that the implications are too vast, and he can’t judge the pros and cons at the moment.
After telling all the experiences during this period, Xie Yuan's mouth became dry and he took another sip of tea and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Except for Mu Chaoyun, he had never discussed these matters with anyone else. The stress of running around for days, the separation of life and death, and the fact that I was hiding my identity on Yunshan Mountain and not showing my true face made me feel a little depressed. Now that I have poured it all out, I have friends who are willing to listen and he is willing to talk, and his mood becomes much clearer.
Situ Qin's heart couldn't help but follow him when he heard that Xie Yuan had gone through so much during this period and had narrowly escaped death several times. After listening to it, even though he knew Xie Yuan was in front of him, Situ Qin was slightly relieved. Looking at his calm look, his face became a little softer.
But after a while, Situ Qin lost his mind for a while, thinking about the story Xie Yuan had told, and said:
"In this way, you and that sister Mu also experienced We live and die together. This kind of friendship is really extraordinary."
Xie Yuan did not force an explanation. Even if he said it lightly, it was undeniable and he did not want to deny it.
Situ Qin said suspiciously:
"Hey, haven't you secretly... made a lifelong decision?"
