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

Cangyue Kingdom Wucheng Land God Temple

Ye Ling, who had just taken a nap, tossed and turned and entered the space. He went to the bathroom first, and then to the martial arts room.

Jiuyou put away his sword: "Senior Sister, you don't want to sleep anymore?"

"Ah~" Ye Ling sighed: "It's early in the morning, and Mu Mengruo's voice made me sleepless. I want to practice for a while, and you can play with me."

"Okay." Jiuyou likes fighting with Ye Ling the most, as it allows him to find out his own shortcomings.

The sky unexpectedly cleared up at noon. Although it was still drizzling, the sun was out.

Ye Ling and a few others sat under the awning and had lunch, which consisted of meat buns and rice porridge. Everyone was curious, but didn't ask too many questions. They just lowered their heads and ate.

At this moment, the person in the carriage at the door finally showed his face. The man slowly got off the carriage. He had a bookish air and a hint of arrogance that was barely noticeable. There seemed to be a moonlight glow flowing on his slightly pale face, making him gentle as jade, fresh and unworldly.

Under everyone's gaze, the man walked towards the awning where Ye Ling and the others were sitting, and then bowed: "Hanzhou Jinyu, greetings to Zhu Wei, the manager of Langya Pavilion."

Bicheng stood up and bowed: "I am Bicheng, the Thousand Envoys of the Renzi Hall of Langya Pavilion. Hello, Master Jin."

"It rained heavily last night. I'm sorry to bother you all," said Jin Yu.

"Mr. Jin, what are you talking about? When you are out, you should be convenient for others and yourself. Mr. Jin, would you like to have dinner with me?" Bicheng asked politely.

"This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Could you please introduce me to you?"

"No problem," Bicheng began to introduce them: "They are: Miss Ye Lingye and her junior brother Jiuyou, the owner of the Guiren Pavilion, Youminglang, the eldest daughter of the Yunzhou Mu family, Mu Mengruo, and Zhuang Yi, the thousand-man envoy of the Renzi Hall."

"Oh, they are all important people. Miss Ye is a heroine. I am so lucky to meet her!" Jin Yu was obviously very excited.

"You're welcome, please take a seat, Mr. Jin," said Ye Ling.

"Thank you, Miss Ye." Jin Yu sat down and looked at You Ming Lang. "They say that the You Tower Master of the Guiren Pavilion is elusive, but if I want to find you, I have to find Miss Ye first. It seems that the rumors are true. Where Miss Ye is, there is a high probability that I will meet the You Tower Master."

"Is there such a fallacy?" Bicheng was curious.

"Most of the people in the martial arts world are just rats. Apart from spreading rumors, they can't do anything serious," Youminglang said slowly.

"Master Youlou is absolutely right," Jinyu agreed.

For a moment, the atmosphere was silent. Bi Cheng reluctantly asked, "Um, where are you going, Master Jin?"

"My uncle is seriously ill in Shang County, Yunzhou, and my mother is also ill and can't go, so I have to go to visit her on her behalf."

"That's really a coincidence," You Ming Lang said as he picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. "Girl, I'm tired. I'm going to rest first. You guys eat slowly."

"Senior Sister, I'm full too." Jiuyou also stood up and returned to the tent.

Ye Ling continued to drink her porridge: "Don't mind, Master Jin. My junior brother and Youlou Master don't like chatting with strangers. They have social anxiety."

"It's okay, it's okay, but...what is social phobia?"

"I just don't like communicating with strangers," Ye Ling replied perfunctorily.

"Cousin, I'm done eating too." Mu Mengruo also stood up and left.

Fang Shu also went back to the tent because of Gu Enze's commotion, and Zhuang Yi stood up to check the surroundings for safety.

For a moment, Ye Ling, Bi Cheng and Jin Yu were the only ones left at the dinner table, and they were once again in an awkward situation.

Jin Yu broke the silence and said, "If you want to ask, where are you going, Miss Ye?"

"Going to Yunzhou and fighting with King Kaoshan is no longer a secret," Ye Ling replied.

"I'm so envious of Miss Ye for becoming the first woman in history to be on the Langya List. If she defeats King Kaoshan, she'll be sixth. Congratulations in advance, Miss Ye."

"We haven't played yet, so we don't know who will win or lose, so I can't congratulate you in advance."

"Since Miss Ye is going, she will definitely win."

"That's hard to say. In a martial arts competition, winning and losing are common."

"Miss Ye has a really good attitude"

"This doesn't have much to do with mentality, right? If you lose, it's just because you're not as skilled as your opponent. Try again next time."

"What if I lose next time?"

"That means you haven't mastered your skills well enough and don't know your limits. Many people, when they themselves lack ability, think others are simply too powerful, or that others must have used some tricks. However, people like me generally don't achieve great things, and they're not good people because they're jealous."

Jin Yu still smiled: "Miss Ye is absolutely right."

"Nonsense," Ye Ling agreed reluctantly.

Jin Yu smiled and stood up: "Miss Ye, Bi Qianshi, I will not disturb you any more."

"Please come in, Mr. Jin," Bicheng stood up and said.

After the others left, Bicheng sat down and said, "Miss Ye, you don't seem to like this scholar very much."

"I wouldn't say I hate it, but I don't like it either. It's just a chance encounter anyway."

Bicheng smiled and whispered, "Aren't you looking at the face?"

Ye Ling replied in a low voice with considerable interest, "Jin's face is indeed quite pretty, but it's too feminine. They say a scholar is good for nothing. I don't like that kind of guy."

Bicheng laughed loudly: "You are absolutely right. I don't like scholars either. They are full of nonsense and when they are really needed, they are as weak as fish."

"You are wrong. Fish can jump up and attack. Can he do that?" Ye Ling asked with a smile.

"Hehe... He is really good..."

"You two, this is a bit too much," the pigeon couldn't help but interrupt, "You two started to play crickets right after they left?"

"We are analyzing the character of the person," Ye Ling defended.

"Yes," Bicheng agreed with a smile.

The pigeon shook its head helplessly: "You two really are a family!"

After lunch, the sky gradually cleared up, but for safety reasons, no one left. They planned to stay here for another night and continue their journey tomorrow.

The night was very peaceful. The next day, the three families set off at the same time. Ye Ling suddenly had an idea and asked Zhuang Yi to ride in the carriage while she wanted to ride his horse for a stroll.

The scenery after the rain is beautiful. The breeze blows, bringing the fresh scent after the rain. The raindrops remaining on the leaves fall from time to time, wetting a small area of ​​the ground.

Ye Ling opened her arms: "The unpolluted environment is so beautiful!"

"I don't think it's as beautiful as Nanlai and Zhezhou, where it's spring all year round," said Bicheng.

"This is already beautiful enough, cherish what you have now! By the way, why are you still single?"

"If one person is full, the whole family will be full!"

"You are being irresponsible to your family. No one will visit your grave when you are old."

"Even if they did, they wouldn't necessarily be able to find my grave! You know, in our line of work, we live from one day to the next. Where we die, we're buried. There's no point in even visiting a grave. Most of us will just wander around like wandering ghosts."

Ye Ling was silent for a moment and said, "What you said seems to be very right. I am actually powerless to refute it."

"That's just the truth, but I still like the way I live my life. I love what I do."

"I just switch jobs as I like them because I don't like the repetitive work day after day. I'm really fed up with the 9-to-5 schedule."

"You like freedom, and almost everyone knows it."

"Yes, freedom." Ye Ling said and rode away on his horse. He stopped to wait for the main force only when he was tired.

After noon, the team came to a section of road with bamboo forests on both sides. Ye Ling, who was walking in front, suddenly raised his hand to signal to stop.

Everyone in the Renzi Hall immediately entered combat mode, and Bicheng asked, "What's wrong?"

"Something's wrong." Ye Ling looked at the bamboo forest a hundred meters away, his lips curled slightly. "There's an ambush, and it's finally here. I've been itching to get it for a few days."

Bicheng looked helpless: "Miss Ye, can you please... not be so excited? After all, the enemy is blocking the way!"

Ye Ling shook his head: "You don't understand, I'm like a long drought finally ending in rain, I'm extremely hungry and thirsty! Protect Gu Enze and let me have a good meal of meat."

"Ah?" Bicheng seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Ye Ling beckoned: "Fifty meters forward."

Fifty meters later, the team stopped again. Ye Ling rode forward a few steps and cleared his throat. "Hey, brothers in ambush ahead, we've spotted you. Be smart and hand over your money and women so I can let you go. Otherwise, I'll charge and kill you without a single mortal left."

Everyone present laughed. It was the first time they saw someone so arrogantly challenging the enemy.

A moment later, several people emerged from the woods. They looked like bandits. One of them spoke loudly, "Heroes and heroes are out in the world, drinking a pot of wine by the river. Who is challenging us?"

Ye Ling smiled and immediately said, "Three cups of wine in this world of mortals, is the person coming here a human or a dog?"

The other party was not willing to give in when he heard this: "Is it a dog or a human? Why bother asking? First, tell me what you are?"

Ye Ling became even more excited and immediately replied: "Langya Pavilion, Yin-Yang Blade, everyone in the martial arts world knows about it. If you don't know the King of Nanlai Mountain, you have come to the martial arts world in vain."

Bicheng was already unable to laugh, and his cousins ​​behind him were having a hard time holding back their laughter.

After a moment's thought, the other party said, "Could it be... Yin-Yang Blade, Night Lady?"

"It's me, mother. Who are you? How dare you block my way? Do you want to learn the Falcon Prison?"

"I dare not," the other party immediately said intimidatedly, "Lady Ye, how dare we intercept Langya Pavilion? We were planning to rob, but when we saw the Langya Pavilion's flag, we decided to wait and see and let you pass. Who knew that you, Lady Ye, discovered us, so we had to come out."

"Bandits? Call out your men, line them up, and throw their weapons into the woods, quickly," Ye Ling shouted.

The bandits had no choice but to call out everyone in the forest, because they couldn't afford to offend the Langya Pavilion, let alone the masters of the Langya List!

After a while, the bandits stood in a row, about twenty people, and the team passed slowly. Jiuyou and Youminglang's carriage stopped at the bandits.

Ye Ling dismounted and approached the bandit leader: "Brother, your opening just now was wrong!"

"Huh?" The bandit looked confused.

"You should say: I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to pass through, you have to leave some money to buy your way through. This is the correct way to act like a bandit. I can see that none of you are professional. You must have taken up the job without any training. It's too careless." Ye Ling taught seriously.

The bandit nodded in confusion. "To be honest, we haven't been bandits for long, so we're not very familiar with the rules. But don't worry, Lady Ye. We've taken note and will stick to this from now on."

Ye Ling nodded in satisfaction: "Based on your love of learning, I believe that in the near future, you will definitely be the king of this mountain and rule this mountain."
