The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cangyue Country - Nanlai - Paradise

Time flies like an arrow. It seems that in the blink of an eye, a day or a month has passed. The pace of time never stops. It always leaves quietly without us noticing, making people sigh at the ruthlessness of time.

Seeing that Xue Jingchuan had been recuperating in the courtyard for almost a month, his wounds had healed, his internal strength had fully recovered, and he was full of energy. He worked non-stop with Jiuyou and Ye Ling, and he enjoyed every minute here.

The weather finally cleared up on June 6th after three days of continuous rain. It was drizzling and cool yesterday, but today the sun is shining brightly and water vapor rises instantly in the forest. When people go in, it feels like being in a steamer, very hot and stuffy.

Three figures, each carrying a small backpack, wandered through the forest. Xue Jingchuan complained as they walked, "Hey, you two, why did you have to come out today to pick wild vegetables? It's too hot, isn't it?"

"I told you not to come, but you insisted on following me. You're a grown man, but you act like you're dying after walking a few steps. It's embarrassing," Jiuyou said with ruthless disdain.

"Who are you talking about? I'm just worried that your daughter can't stand it."

"A young lady would never be as frail and frail as you."

"In the twilight years?" Xue Jingchuan was speechless. "Is there some misunderstanding between you two, master and servant? 'In the twilight years' is used to describe an elderly person."

"I think you are not much different from an old man. This word suits you very well," Ye Ling said with a smile.

"They all bully me"

"No one is bullying you. Here are some food that can only be picked after the rain. We are leaving. Qianqing can't go so deep or she will get lost, so I have to get her more food. Our goal today is to pick wood ear mushrooms, ground vegetables and various non-toxic mushrooms. These things can be taken back and dried and stored. When you eat them, just soak them in water and they will be the same as if they were just picked." Ye Ling explained as they walked.

"Miss, there are so many fungus!" Jiuyou shouted from not far away.

"Great, let's go!" Ye Ling quickly ran over, pulling the lagging Xue Jingchuan with him. "So many! Let me tell you, this stuff is precious. It's all natural. Jiuyou, use your backpack to carry the fungus."

"You two go ahead and pick first. I... I'll rest for a while. I'm... too tired." Xue Jingchuan was sweating profusely. To be honest, he was seriously injured after all. It was impossible for him to recover in a month, so he was still a little weak.

"Then be careful when you sit down, there are snakes," Ye Ling reminded.

When Xue Jingchuan heard this, he immediately stood up and asked, "Snake? Where is it?"

Ye Ling and Jiu You were both frightened by him. After they realized what was happening, they laughed at the same time. Ye Ling said, "So you are afraid of snakes!"

"I've been scared of snakes since I was little, scared to death." Xue Jingchuan trotted over to Ye Ling and pulled her arm: "Sister Ye, you have to protect me!"

"Get out of the way!" Jiuyou pushed Xue Jingchuan away. "Hasn't it been enough to take advantage of me?"

"Young man, explain clearly, who is taking advantage?"

"Do you think I'm blind?"

"Okay, if you two have this much time, you might as well pick more wood ear mushrooms so that we can go back early." Ye Ling was speechless. These two guys quarreled every day.

"Hmph!" The two of them disliked each other and began to carefully pick wood ears on both sides of Ye Ling.

The three of them worked all morning and finally returned with a full load. On the way back, they came across a fallen dead tree. Ye Ling suggested, "Let's move the dead tree back this afternoon. We don't know how long it will take us to get back this time. What if they burn all the wood?"

"How could it be possible to burn it all? Jiuyou got such a big tree, and there were still a lot left. It must be enough to burn. It's so hot, it will be tiring to move it back!" Xue Jingchuan disagreed.

"Miss, this job is for men. My subordinates will come to move it in the afternoon." Jiuyou deliberately emphasized the word "man".

"Boy, don't think I can't hear you scolding me," Xue Jingchuan immediately retorted.

Ye Ling glanced at Xue Jingchuan and shook his head slightly: "You can't lift it with your hands, you can't carry it on your shoulders. You're too weak, a man!"

Jiuyou smirked, and Xue Jingchuan instantly became furious: "Isn't it just moving some wood? Can't I come in the afternoon?"

Ye Ling and Jiu You exchanged glances and smiled triumphantly.

When the three of them returned, Qian Qing had already prepared lunch, which included a combination of meat and vegetables, as well as dishes and soup. It was a real treat for those who had worked all morning.

After lunch, Xue Jingchuan followed Jiuyou to move the tree, looking back every few steps. He was really reluctant.

Qian Qing wanted to laugh when she saw this: "Miss, Master Xue doesn't like working with Jiuyou, he just wants to pester you."

"He eats my food and lives my house here, so he can't just do nothing, right? An Kui also wants to kill him. He always thinks that it was me who implicated him before. Now that I'm leaving soon, let him suffer a little," Ye Ling said while picking vegetables on the ground.

Qian Qing carried a tray of picked fruits, stepped on a ladder, and put them on the roof to dry in the sun: "Miss, the Blood Prince's injury hasn't healed yet, so he doesn't want to work."

"Nonsense," Ye Ling disagreed. "He's just used to living the life of a young master. Look at Jiuyou, he does all the dirty work. He was injured, but he went out to chop wood the next day. His wound was bleeding badly at night, but he didn't say a word and quietly dealt with it himself. If I hadn't noticed, he would have carried it all by himself. It's so heartbreaking."

"Jiuyou is indeed better than all other men I have ever met. The first gift I received was Jiuyou's pickled plums." Qianqing was a little shy.

"Sister Qianqing can't bear to eat pickled plums, so she takes them out to look at them every night," said Wanqi.

"Little brat, stop talking nonsense"

"I'm not talking nonsense. Sister Qianqing also made a pair of riding boots for Brother Jiuyou. They are in the cabinet," Wan Qi said innocently.

"Wanqi, if you say that again I won't make delicious food for you." Qianqing's little face turned red.

Ye Ling seemed to understand something: "Qian Qing, are you interested in Jiu You? Do you like him?"

"No...no, miss, I'm going to cook." Qian Qingwei squatted down to salute and trotted into the kitchen.

"Miss," Wan Qi raised an eyebrow and whispered in Ye Ling's ear, "Sister Qianqing said she likes Brother Jiuyou, and Brother Jiuyou also gave Sister Qianqing pickled plums. Do you think they will have a baby to play with me?"

"Give...give birth to a baby?" Ye Ling was still in shock and felt inexplicably uncomfortable. "Wanqi, did you see what else your brother Jiuyou gave Qianqing?"

Wan Qi thought hard, then shook her head: "No, but Brother Jiuyou has been helping Sister Qianqing with work, and he was worried that she would be tired."

Ye Ling nodded and looked towards the kitchen, muttering to herself, "Are they really a couple? I never noticed before! Why do I feel uncomfortable? Something's wrong?"

"I feel uncomfortable," Mengmeng said.

Ye Ling rolled his eyes, not wanting to discuss with an elf. He prepared to go up to the second floor room for a while. As soon as he stood up, he felt something was wrong. Looking into the distance, his sixth sense was not wrong: "Qian Qing?"

"Miss" Qianqing ran out.

"Someone is trying to break the Stonehenge. Close the door and hide back in the room with Wanqi," Ye Ling said as she flew out. She didn't have her own signal smoke, so she couldn't notify the two people who went out for a while. She planned to go and check the situation alone first.

Qian Qing quickly closed the door and activated all the traps Jiuyou had set up in the courtyard. She pulled Wanqi into her room, then closed the windows and door. After doing everything, she could only wait quietly. Suddenly, she remembered something important: "Wanqi, stay in the room. I have to go find Jiuyou and the others to help the young lady."

Wanqi is afraid

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Look here. After I get out, pull it down again. This is a mechanism designed by Brother Jiuyou. The bad guys can't get in at all. Okay?"

"Okay." Wanqi tried hard to overcome her fear.

Qian Qing turned off the mechanism in the room, trotted out of the side door, and headed towards the approximate direction based on the discussion among the group at noon.

Ye Ling has arrived at the Stonehenge and is resting on a big tree.

The man who broke into Stonehenge was a man about thirty years old, wearing a gray-white robe with tight sleeves and a waist. He had an upright posture, a resolute face, and deep eyes that showed determination and courage. His black hair was tied up high, revealing his broad forehead, giving people a refreshing and neat feeling.

Seeing that there was only one person, Ye Ling felt relieved. He immediately flew to the commanding heights and said slowly, "Brother, taking off your pants to chase a tiger is shameless and life-threatening!"

The person who broke the formation was already trapped inside, unable to split himself up. He glanced at Ye Ling and said, "You're talking without any hesitation. Who changed my formation? I can't even go back home."

"Your formation? Shameless!" Ye Ling said as he flew down and began to cooperate with the Stonehenge in the battle.

After the two of them exchanged ten moves with bare hands, Ye Ling was a little puzzled: Why are this guy's moves exactly the same as mine?

The man raised his hand and said, "No more fighting, no more fighting. You're really a firecracker, you just started fighting without any explanation? A gentleman uses words, not fists, haven't you heard?"

Ye Ling was speechless. This was the first time he had encountered such an opponent. "You want to fight first and not talk, right? I'll beat you to a pulp first."

"Stop, how can you talk to me like that?" the man said, pulling out a jade pendant from his arms and throwing it to Ye Ling: "Look carefully."

Ye Ling recognized it as Feng Qingyang's thing at a glance: "You...you are Mo Yufeng?"

Mo Yufeng straightened his clothes, and then looked back handsomely: "Yes, I am your senior brother, and the only senior brother, Mo Yufeng, the man who can control the wind."

Ye Ling felt like vomiting because of this greasy man and threw the jade pendant back: "Where do you get your confidence from?"

"You... be careful," Mo Yufeng quickly reminded, a new round of attacks from Stonehenge is coming again.

"Follow me," Ye Ling led the way.

The two of them successfully exited the Stonehenge. Mo Yufeng looked behind him and said, "You modified the formation? Really? It's so powerful. I can't even find the escape route."

"My Jiuyou modified it. He swapped the gates of life and death," Ye Ling said proudly.

Mo Yufeng was a little scared: "So I just entered the death gate?"

"Yes, you should thank me for discovering it early, otherwise you would have died," Ye Ling said as he walked.

"How would you talk to your senior brother like that? What? Are you so confident now that you're on the Langya List?"

“I have always been strong.”

"You little brat, you're still showing off!"

Perhaps because they were from the same school, although it was their first meeting, they felt inexplicably familiar with each other and kept bantering with each other all the way back.
