Chapter 14 Lighting Incense
Different swords feel different when held in their hands.
You Su held Mo Song in his hands and danced his sword like the wind. This inner-outside confidence was something that a wooden sword could not bring him. You Su enjoyed this kind of confidence, he liked feeling confident.
As the daylight passed, You Su was immersed in sword practice, only the shadows changed direction from west to east.
Ji Lingruo rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked out of the room. The setting sun was like blood, dyeing her green skirt with a different color, as beautiful as a thick watercolor painting.
She found that her senior brother was working extra hard today. Even though it was already dinner time, he was still practicing his sword tirelessly. She was about to shout to her senior brother to stop practicing and make dinner, but looking at You Su's sweat-stained clothes, she couldn't bear to disturb him. At that moment, Ji Lingruo's stomach growled unsatisfactorily, and the girl Biting his lower lip lightly, an idea suddenly occurred to him.
She decided to show off her skills and let her senior brother have a taste of her skills. So, he quietly entered the kitchen.
You Su didn't know how long he had been practicing. When the setting sun was completely covered by the mountains, You Su suddenly woke up and realized that it was already night. Then he remembered that he had not prepared dinner for his junior sister, so he quickly put away the Mo Song Sword and ran to the kitchen.
It was dark, and the orange oil lamp was lit in the kitchen, and the girl's skin seemed to be emitting a faint fluorescent light. There were a lot of spots on Ji Lingruo's dress, and she didn't know whether it was water or oil. She rolled up her sleeves and scooped up the fried eggs in the pot. After taking them all out, she breathed a sigh of relief, lamenting her difficulty, and then continued He rushed to fetch water and poured it into the pot. When he was done, he put the lid on the pot and wiped the thin sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand.
You Su stood quietly outside the door. He couldn't see it, but he silently watched everything in the kitchen as if he could see it.
When the water boiled, Ji Lingruo lifted the lid of the pot and threw in a handful of washed cabbage and two bundles of noodles, not forgetting to season them. After a while, Ji Lingruo filled out the clear soup noodles with great anticipation and divided them into two bowls. Yusu's bowl was obviously more. Ji Lingruo put four more fried eggs into their bowls, which was exactly two for each person. She hesitated for a while, then put one of her own into Yu Su's bowl, with a hint of pride at the corner of her mouth.
She put the noodles and prepared to ask the sword-crazy senior brother to eat. This was the only food she was good at and made by herself. In her mind, she had already ordered You Su to drink all the soup. index.
But as soon as he turned around, he was startled by You Su standing at the door. Ji Lingruo patted his chest, which was beginning to take shape, and complained:
"Why not "Come in and eat."
You Su walked in with a smile: "Junior sister has grown up and will respect my senior brother."
"Oh, I accidentally did too much." That's all, it's a pity that your sect doesn't raise pigs, otherwise I would rather feed them to pigs." Ji Lingruo rolled her eyes prettyly as she sat down.
You Su also sat down, picked up the noodle bowl, took a sip of the noodle soup, and lamented: "It's a good thing I didn't raise pigs, otherwise I would starve to death sooner or later, junior sister."
"You What do you mean?" Ji Lingruo glared at You Su, then picked up a large piece of noodles and stuffed it into her mouth, muttering, "Is it hard to eat?"
But just this one bite, let her I almost retched, it's not easy to make clear soup noodles taste like this.
She took a sip of tea and said angrily, "I'm not performing well! You are not allowed to eat!"
You Su turned a deaf ear, picked up the noodles and started to eat them happily.
"Hey, I asked you not to eat it. Don't you think it tastes bad?"
"Yes?"
"You didn't say that the pig would starve to death. ?”
You Su took another sip of noodle soup and said with a smile, “When I said you starved the pig to death, I meant who could feed you enough?” After that, he looked at Ji Lingruo again. Without using his chopsticks, he asked tentatively, "Junior sister, if you're not hungry, why don't you give me yours too."
"No!" Ji Lingruo looked at You Su's salivating look and thought in her heart It was so sweet that I started to eat the noodles, but I thought they weren't that bad. It wasn't until the two of them couldn't help but raise their teacups that they smiled at each other.
......
The full moon hangs high, and the porcelain-white moonlight shines on the earth. The Yin o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow as agreed with Ling Zhenren is about to arrive.
You Su calculated the date. Today is August 15th. In the world of the previous life, today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, a day for family reunion.
It's a pity that there is no such festival in this continent, but You Su still wants to add a sense of sacred ritual to today - he wants to save his junior sisters and sisters, and then reunite with them.
Today he told his junior sister not to practice sword practice and asked her to write the Legend of White Snake in her room as soon as possible. He also lingered for a moment in front of his master's wife's room. The room was still deathly silent. You Su didn't disturb him, but silently stepped away.
You Su took out several items given to him by Master Ling and placed them on the table, including a lamp, seven wicks and three sticks of dragon sandalwood. You Su closed his eyes and carefully recalled every detail of his interaction with Zhenren Ling. The more he recalled it, the firmer his decision became.
He only needs to recite the sixteen-character incantation, and he can help Master Ling form a formation, trap the evil spirit in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Hiding Formation, and become the turtle in the urn of Master Ling.
It sounds like a very simple thing. He only needs these few steps to rescue his junior sister and junior wife from the quagmire.
But Yousu didn't take action for a long time, not because he was indecisive, but because he was waiting.
At the foot of the mountain half a mile away, Master Ling in white clothes was stroking his slender beard, looking at the changing moonlight and stars, secretly weighing the time. He held four yellow talismans in his hand. In front of him was an old mahogany table with an incense altar filled with sandalwood.
There are eleven more such venues in the area centered on the Yuanyang Sword Sect and with a radius of half a mile.
Zhenren Ling worked hard to arrange all this quietly. Fortunately, the Yuanyang Sword Sect is located in a remote location, which made it easier to implement his plan. To ensure just in case, he even went to great lengths to set up a soundproof formation of the same size.
But he has not received feedback from You Su for lighting incense, and he feels a little anxious. The formation also pays attention to the right time and place. Once the Yin Shi passes, the ability of this formation will be greatly reduced.
Master Ling was a little worried that something unexpected happened to You Su, but he didn't sense any unusual movement there, which meant that You Su was not exposed.
Did he see it?
The more Zhenren Ling thought about it, the more frightened he became. If this young man had seen through it long ago and had been lying to him for so long, what kind of terrible character would that be?
Ling Zhenren did not feel that he would fail, but he was angry because he was deceived. He could no longer hold back and stepped within half a mile.
At the same time, You Su also stopped counting down in his heart.
Half a quarter of an hour would pass, and he finally lit seven incense sticks.
"The sky is round and the earth is round, there are nine chapters of laws and regulations, I order to write, all ghosts..."
You Su recited devoutly, then put out the incense, lifted the ink pine, and moved lightly He walked out of the sect.
Under the moonlight, his shadow was stretched so long that he was going to save them.
