Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 292 Engagement 3 Years Ago

Fu Jinghong wrote a poem on the theme of moonlight.

An Nian and Shangguan Lan both applauded, and the two singers also cast passionate glances at Fu Jinghong.

Li Bai's Quiet Night Thoughts has immense destructive power no matter in which world it is.

Only Ye Feng silently lit a cigarette and looked at Fu Jinghong with a half-smile on his face.

Ye Feng felt that he would be very surprised and excited.

She would give Fu Jinghong a warm bear hug, and then both of them would bury their heads in tears.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land... This isn't a foreign land, this is another world!

However, when he heard Li Bai's "Quiet Night Thoughts" from Fu Jinghong at this moment, there was no great fluctuation in his heart.

It seems that everything is as it should be.

"I knew it! I knew it was like this! Old Fu, let's see how you can pretend to be like this!

The last few times I tested you, you were always rambling on about this and that. But tonight you suddenly revealed your true identity to me. What is your purpose?"

Ye Feng thought secretly in his heart.

If Fu Jinghong refuses to admit it, Ye Feng will have no way to deal with him.

But tonight Fu Jinghong took the initiative to expose herself in front of Ye Feng.

This actually made Ye Feng feel a little surprised.

Fu Jinghong's expression didn't seem as calm as before, and the eye that was not covered by his hair seemed to be flashing with a hint of sadness.

But this sadness soon dissipated.

He blinked at Ye Feng and said with a smile: "I am sorry for the incompetence. I read this poem in a book. I lose this competition. I accept the penalty of three cups."

He was about to raise the wine to punish himself when Ye Feng reached out and pressed on the wine glass.

"Old Master, don't be so quick to admit your punishment. The poem you wrote is no worse than the one I just wrote."

"Old Ye, I've already told you that I didn't write this poem. I read it in an ancient book."

"Really? What ancient book? Let me take a look!" Ye Feng said jokingly.

Fu Jinghong actually took out an ancient book that looked very worn from the storage bag magic weapon.

After flipping through a few pages, he handed it to Ye Feng and said, "This is the book!"

Ye Feng was stunned and took it suspiciously.

Then his eyes were attracted by the content of the book.

"The moon shines brightly before my bed, I wonder if it's frost on the ground. I look up at the moon, but when I look down I think of my homeland... How could it be possible?"

Ye Feng stood up, rubbed his eyes with his hands, and looked incredible.

He immediately looked at the book carefully. There was no words on the cover, the pages were yellowed and severely damaged, and it was obvious that it was a very old rare ancient book.

It looks like it has been around for at least hundreds or even thousands of years.

"Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible..."

Seeing Ye Feng's expression suddenly change, the atmosphere in the private room instantly became quiet.

Even the sounds of the piano and pipa came to an abrupt halt.

Shangguan Lan was shocked when she saw Ye Feng's expression, and she kept flipping through and checking the ancient book in her hand.

She felt a little worried and asked, "Ye Feng, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Feng did not answer, but clutched the ancient book in his hand and said, "This book... you made it yourself, right?"

Fu Jinghong looked confused and said, "I did it myself? Old Ye, what do you mean... I've had this book for decades, how can I do it? Old Ye, is there something wrong with this book?"

Ye Feng looked at the ancient book in his hand again.

He knew that the fakes of antiques in the past were very realistic. Last week's products, after a series of aging processes, could be transformed into antiques from the Shang and Zhou dynasties in seconds.

Ye Feng suspected that this ancient book was also made to look old.

However, he knew nothing about the art of aging cultural relics. To the naked eye, the ancient book in his hand did look like one that had been passed down from a long, long time ago.

Ye Feng slowly sat back in his chair, his expression still uncertain.

The moment Fu Jinghong recited "Quiet Night Thoughts", he felt that Fu Jinghong had no room for excuse.

He had already planned to have a candlelight chat with Fu Jinghong at night and share their innermost thoughts.

Who would have thought that this non-mainstream person would actually take out an ancient book for him.

This ancient book actually contains Li Bai's Quiet Night Thoughts.

Ye Feng read the general history of all dynasties in the book cave yesterday.

In this world, although there are various legends about Nuwa creating humans and Pangu creating the world, there is no Qin Shi Huang, Han Wudi, or Tang Taizong and Song Taizu.

There is no legendary poet Li Bai.

But how could Li Bai's poems appear in an ancient book in this world?

Ye Feng looked at Fu Jinghong with a complicated expression.

He felt that this book was most likely made by Fu Jinghong himself, who used a series of aging techniques to make the book look very old in order to deceive himself.

Facing Ye Feng's suspicious gaze.

Fu Jinghong smiled and said, "Old Ye, poetry and prose are just elegant hobbies for us cultivators. If you like it, this ancient book will be given to you."

Ye Feng said: "Can you tell me where this book of yours came from?"

Fu Jinghong said, "A friend gave it to me over forty years ago. He said it was a travelogue of a remarkable man who traveled the world a thousand years ago. It records many strange stories about the human world, as well as the spirits of mountains and rivers. I found it so interesting that I kept it with me and would occasionally flip through a few pages."

Ye Feng stared deeply at Fu Jinghong.

Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to read minds.

Just like he couldn't tell whether the book in his hand was genuine or a fake.

He also couldn't tell whether Fu Jinghong was lying or not.

An Nian knew how to liven up the atmosphere, and said, "Since Jinghong's poem was excerpted from ancient books, I declare that Junior Brother Ye Feng is the winner. Jinghong, you must drink three cups of wine as punishment!"

After this little episode, the atmosphere seemed a little depressing.

The three of them could feel that Ye Feng's emotions were changing dramatically.

This made everyone very curious.

Isn't it just an ancient book and a poem about homesickness? Ye Feng's reaction is too extreme.

After a while, Fu Jinghong asked the zither girl and the pipa girl to leave.

He patted Ye Feng's shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Ye, I'm treating you to a drink today. Besides congratulating you on your advancement, I also have something I want to ask you."

An Nian and Shangguan Lan put down their chopsticks at the same time and looked at the two of them.

They thought that Fu Jinghong wanted to ask about the mysterious skills of Ye Feng, especially the Red Sun Heart Thunder Art... These were also what they wanted to know.

Ye Feng glanced at Fu Jinghong and said, "You don't want to ask about the Red Sun Heart Thunder Art, do you?"

Unexpectedly, Fu Jinghong shook his head and said with a smile, "No, no, no, the Scarlet Sun Heart Thunder Art was decided by the masters of all generations. I won't ask about it. What I want to ask you is, is the golden cicada still on you?"

"Golden cicada? What golden cicada?"

Ye Feng looked suspicious.

Fu Jinghong was not surprised and said, "A golden jade cicada, given to you by your mother-in-law thirteen years ago."

"Mother-in-law?"

The three people at the same table were all stunned.

Sanzhier, who was eating and drinking voraciously, couldn't help but look up, then continued eating.

An Nian said, "Jinghong, stop joking. What mother-in-law does this kid have?"

Fu Jinghong shook his head and laughed, "I'm really not kidding. Thirteen years ago, when Junior Brother Ye first arrived at Yunhai Sect, Senior Uncle Yulong arranged a marriage for Old Ye.

Not many people knew about this matter, and my senior brother and I just happened to find out about it.

"Old Ye, judging from your expression, didn't Master Yulong tell you about this?"

Ye Feng shook his head blankly.

The smile on Shangguan Lan's handsome face had long since disappeared.

She looked at him with a bewildered expression, biting her lower lip gently with her pearly teeth, and asked, "Second Brother, who is it? I mean, Ye Feng...who is he engaged to?"

Fu Jinghong said, "That's Ye Feng's opponent in the ring today, Shen Tianqi."

"what?"

Ye Feng was startled and shouted, "Old Fu, you are kidding me! This is the first time I've met Shen Tianqi. How could I possibly have been engaged to her? Stop talking nonsense!"

Fu Jinghong laughed and said, "I guess even Shen Tianqi himself doesn't know about this. Thirteen years ago, my senior brother and I went to Yumu Peak to do some work, and we happened to meet Uncle Yulong who brought you to Yumu Peak as a guest.

You were so young then..."

Fu Jinghong stretched out his hand to measure Ye Feng's height at that time, and then said, "You were only about three years old at that time, and very dark. At that time, Uncle Yulong said that you were too ugly and you probably wouldn't be able to find a wife when you grew up.

At that time, there were two little girls on Yumu Peak, the fourteen-year-old Shen Tianqi and her eleven-year-old cousin Yun Shuang'er.

At that time, you were taken outside by Shen Tianqi and Yun Shuang'er to play.

Uncle Yulong and Uncle Shan, Shen Tianqi's mother, have been good friends for many years and have a life-long friendship. Seeing that the three of you were having a lot of fun, and in order to prevent you from being a bachelor when you grow up, Uncle Yulong said to Uncle Shan, why not arrange a marriage for you first.

At that time, Uncle Shan smiled and said yes, and asked him to choose between Shen Tianqi and Yun Shuang'er.

Before you even picked your choice, Yun Shuang'er hit you and made you cry. You ran into the house crying and complained that your beautiful sister had hit you.

In order to coax you, Uncle Shan took out a golden cicada from his arms and gave it to you.

The golden cicada was carved from jade. It was golden all over and very lifelike. It could fly on its own and make cicada chirps.

Today, when you were fighting with Shen Tianqi, I remembered that you had this golden cicada on you.

"Old Ye, do you still have this golden cicada? If so, please lend it to me for a few days. The golden cicada is a very special little magic weapon. Perhaps it can solve a small problem I'm facing right now."

The three people in the room looked at each other, each with a strange expression.

The atmosphere seemed quite depressing.

Before Ye Feng could even speak, An Nian shouted, "Jinghong, forget about Jin Chan for now. What did you just say? Yun Shuang'er is Shen Tianqi's cousin? Yun Shuang'er... which Yun Shuang'er?"

Fu Jinghong asked, "Are there many Yunshuang'er in our Yunhai Sect?"

Shangguan Lan hesitated and asked, "Second Senior Brother, is this Uncle Yuying's disciple Yun Shuang'er?"

Fu Jinghong nodded and said, "Yes. There are probably no more than twenty people in the Yunhai Sect who know that Yun Shuang'er and Shen Tianqi are cousins. Just keep this to yourselves. Once you leave this room, don't tell anyone. This involves some past events of the older generation."

Especially Yun Shuang'er's father, he seems to be a highly respected elder in our Yunhai Sect. It would have a bad impact if the news got out.

Back then, I went to Yumu Peak with my senior brother to secretly deal with Yun Shuang'er's matter, and that's when we ran into Uncle Yulong and Old Ye."

"Handle it in secret? What does that mean? Since Shuang'er's father is a senior of Yunhai Sect, there is nothing secret about it, why should we hide it from outsiders?" Ye Feng frowned slightly.

He only found out last night that Yun Shuang'er and Shen Tianqi were cousins.

Unexpectedly, Fu Jinghong already knew about it.

He wanted to ask Fu Jinghong what secrets Yun Shuang'er held about her life.

When it comes to Yun Shuang'er's affairs, he still cares a lot.

Fu Jinghong said, "Um... I just said that Yun Shuang'er's father seems to be a senior from our Yunhai Sect, and her mother is Shen Fulong's sister, Shen Fuyao, who is a Buddhist woman. Perhaps because of this reason, Yun Shuang'er's life experience has not been made public. She has been fostered in Yumu Peak for many years and grew up with Shen Tianqi.

As for the secret handling...it was actually to secretly get Yun Shuang'er out of Yu Mu Peak through formal channels, and then fabricate a story about her being an orphan...

Anyway, after some covert manipulation by my senior brother and I, Yun Shuang'er was finally sent from Yu Mu Peak to Mo Zhu Xuan."
