[Chen Qingling] Dawn to evening
Chapter 20
Facing the sudden change in their relationship, both of them were obviously not prepared enough, they didn't know how to get along with each other, and Jiang Cheng even became as shy as he hadn't seen in more than ten years.
But business still needs to be done.Because the Chen family hosted a banquet, Lan Xichen and the others never had the opportunity to talk about Qiong Qijiao with the Chen family leader.After the evening banquet was finally over, the group of them found Patriarch Chen and explained their intentions.
Fortunately, Patriarch Chen didn't dare to drink too much because he was afraid of entertaining the Immortal Governor badly, otherwise, he would have met Duke Zhou long ago.At this time, the moon was in the sky, and several people surrounded Patriarch Chen, making her very nervous.
"Xiandu, Mr. Zewu, this thing does look like a Qiongqijiao in appearance, but my family only has some written records in the fragments. I'm not sure if this thing is real." Patriarch Chen After studying this horn repeatedly, he said this.
"Is there no way to test it?" Wei Wuxian asked.
"Yes, yes, but it's useless to have it." Patriarch Chen said vaguely.
"How do you say that?"
"Do you know that this thing is a family heirloom of the Wen family?" Patriarch Chen asked everyone.
The people present nodded their heads and said loudly, expressing that they all knew.
"Since it belongs to the Wen family, there must be restrictions from the Wen family, otherwise everyone can use it?" Patriarch Chen's words were still squeezed out bit by bit.
"Patriarch Chen, just give me a quick word!" Wei Wuxian lost his patience.
"Back to the ancestors, I mean, this thing can only be used by the Wen family, but the Wen family has been beaten to ashes, who can use it? Your ghost general doesn't count, he must be a normal person. The kind that bleeds." Except for a few juniors present, all of them were directly related to the extermination of the Wen family.None of them probably thought that when they paid off the whole family by themselves, they would ask for it one day.
"This..." Several people couldn't help but put their eyes on Lan Sizhui.
"Hanguang-jun, why don't I give it a try?" Lan Sizhui is probably the last Wen's bloodline in the world.
Lan Wangji nodded when he heard the words. Although Sizhui was already a very partial branch compared to Wen Ruohan, it was indeed Wen Mao's descendant.
"Xiandu, did I not understand that this thing needs to be activated with the blood of the Wen family, not the Lan family." It's hard for Master Chen, who is almost 50 years old, to be careful with a room of young people, watching them go blind Don't dare to scold nonsense.
It was still Lan Xichen who had a good heart, and smiled to appease Patriarch Chen, telling her to stay calm.
I saw Lan Sizhui drew out his own sword, lightly stroked his fingertips, and in an instant, blood droplets appeared, and he dripped his own blood on Qiongqi's corner.The blood stain instantly melted into the corner and disappeared.Everyone didn't dare to blink their eyes, for fear of missing any details.But sadly, nothing has changed with this thing.Lan Jingyi at the side was a little anxious, taking advantage of Si Zhui's wound not yet healed, took his hand and squeezed two drops of blood on it.Lan Sizhui didn't stop him, but Jin Ling felt distressed as he watched from the sidelines, so he went up and slapped Lan Jingyi lightly on the back of the hand.Everyone didn't pay much attention to this small interaction.They were still staring at the horn on the table.
In the end, everyone was disappointed, it was still so dusty, lying there like a garbage waiting to be discarded.
"This, I can't do anything about it." Patriarch Chen quietly shrank aside after completing the task and made no sound. As for why they wanted this wake-up thing, she didn't know, and she didn't dare to ask.
"I think SiZhui's blood is too far away to awaken this artifact." When Lan Xichen said this, there was regret.
Wei WuXian picked up the corner on the table, tossed it a few times for fun, and finally handed it to Lan Sizhui, "Just take it as a thought."
Everyone rejected Patriarch Chen's overnight stay and went back to the previous inn overnight. Nie Huaisang was still waiting for their news.Although there is no good news, you must always let him know.
Sure enough, when the group of them returned to the inn, Nie Huaisang was still waiting anxiously in the lobby.
"I thought you were robbed, how about it, is there a way?"
The leader, Lan Xichen, shook his head.
Nie Huaisang couldn't hide his disappointment.
Seeing that this road was blocked, he could only think of other ways.It's just that it's too late today, everyone decided to rest separately, and discuss in detail tomorrow.
Wei Wuxian licked his face and entered the same room with Lan Wangji, no one was surprised by this.Even Jiang Cheng was wondering if he could take this opportunity to talk to Lan Xichen...well, save some rent.
But after all, he’s not as blatant as Wei Wuxian.
After Wei Wuxian followed Lan Wangji into the house, he was about to make some small moves when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Who is it?" Wei Wuxian felt that this person was really a nuisance.
"It's me." Although the person outside the door only said two words, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji heard it.They looked at each other, and Wei Wuxian stepped forward to open the door.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng sat alone in the room, a little anxious.Although he confessed his love to Lan Xichen out of breath, he even got a response.But neither of them had a good word to say afterward.It was not easy to follow Lan Xichen into his room just now.Now I can only bear back the longing that is close at hand, and stay alone in the house.
"Tuk tuk." Someone knocked on the door.
"Who?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Just this one word brought out expectations that he hadn't noticed.
"Wan Yin, it's me."
Hearing the voice that was in his mind, Jiang Cheng walked to the door in three steps at a time and opened it.Before Lan Xichen could lift his foot, Jiang Cheng dragged him into the room.Just as the door was about to close, Lan Xichen's back was pressed against the door, followed by a kiss.
In the huge room, only the ambiguous sounds of entangled tongues remained.It wasn't until Lan Xichen's cheeks were flushed that Jiang Cheng reluctantly let go.
"Why aren't you panting?" Although Jiang Cheng ended the kiss, they still didn't get too far away, the tip of their noses pressed against the tip of their noses, and their breaths were all entangled.
"I'm not as experienced as Wan Yin."
"You have wronged me, but I gave you my first kiss." The Sect Master Guo Jiang expressed his refusal.
"So, Wan Yin is really talented?"
"Jiang's talent is not limited to this place, Mr. Zewu, do you want to try it?" Sect Master Jiang probably never thought that he would say such a thing, but facing Lan Xichen, some words came naturally. Just said it.
Regarding this, Mr. Zewu said: "I am honored, but..."
"But what?" Jiang Cheng felt that no one wanted to hear these two words at a time like this.
"But I've come to find you for a business."
Lan Xichen took Jiang Cheng to Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian's room with a stinky face.At this moment, Lan Sizhui was also there.
It turned out that it was Lan Sizhui who knocked on Lan Wangji's door just now.
"Hanguang-jun, Senior Wei, Zewu-jun, and Sect Master Jiang, Sizhui has something to tell everyone." Lan Sizhui was going to say it as soon as he entered the door, but after only a few words, Wei Wuxian suggested that Lan Sizhui Xichen and Jiang Cheng also called over to listen together, so they waited until now.He didn't need to ask, and continued: "At night, when I was at Chen's house, I lied. In fact, I had already lifted the restriction on that horn, but I didn't say it at the time."
"Have you lifted the restriction? But we didn't notice any changes in that horn at the time!" It was Jiang Cheng who asked the question, and because Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji had already heard this, they didn't speak.
"Sect Master Jiang, that's because this horn is just a medium."
"medium?"
"Well, a medium leading to the secret realm."
Lan Sizhui said slowly.
It turned out that after he dripped his own blood on the horn, he entered a special space where it was foggy and he couldn't see the distance clearly.But there is a clear spring at his feet, and there is a stone tablet beside the spring, with the words Wuyou written on the front, and the words Qusickness and Exorcism on the back.Not far from the spring, there should be other things, but they are all shrouded in mist, so they can't see clearly, and they can't walk through.
"At that time, I didn't know where I was. I just wanted to get out of there first. In an instant, I was back at Chen's house. At that time, Jing Yi was holding my hand to squeeze the blood, and Jin Ling even took a picture of me. He clicked, which means that you didn't notice that I was different, and I stood in the secret realm for a while. I think it's probably because the time inside and outside the secret realm is inconsistent. Out of some kind of worry, I didn't say it on the spot My adventure."
"What are you worried about?" Lan Wangji asked him.
"Golden Crane." Lan Sizhui continued: "Jun Zewu and Sect Master Jiang, I don't know if you still remember that when we first talked about Qiongqijiao, Jin He mentioned the Guanyin Temple? The three uncles mentioned that Jin Zongzhu's buried things in the Guanyin Temple were dropped, and when he was digging, he was burned by poison."
Jiang Cheng thought about it for a while, "It seems that such a thing happened. Is there something wrong?"
"Because you were there all the time, I didn't think it was wrong. But I arrived at the Guanyin Temple late, so I didn't know that his arm had been burned by poison. But Jinhe knew it. If I remember correctly, he was alive that day Jin Ling was the only person in the Jin family who walked out of Guanyin Temple, and the others were all dead. On the way back just now, I asked Jin Ling if he had mentioned this matter to anyone. He said no. Then the three members of the Jin family How did the uncle know that Sovereign Jin was burned? How could Jin He, a junior who was not welcomed by the three of them, have the opportunity to hear these secrets? These are too unreasonable. Coincidentally, at the The people who came out of Guanyin Temple are all in this inn at this time." Lan Sizhui paused here.Several other people understood and shook their heads, which meant that they hadn't mentioned this matter to the outside world.Lan Sizhui continued: "Then Sect Master Nie is left. Of course, these are all my guesses, and there is no evidence. But to be on the safe side, I didn't say anything about the secret realm in the Chen family."
After Wei Wuxian listened, he thought for a while, "Is there a possibility that this poor horn was deliberately arranged by someone in the Guanyin Temple, in order to cooperate with the witchcraft incident that happened during this period, so that we can find a way to help him? Activate this horn. If it succeeds, he will find a way to steal it. If he fails, he can be sure that no one can stop his large-scale voodoo. He knows that this horn is in the Nie family, so he will start with Qinghe first. .” Wei Wuxian made a bolder hypothesis.
"What Senior Wei said is also possible, but how do we investigate now?"
"It's simple, just ask the person involved and you'll know?"
But business still needs to be done.Because the Chen family hosted a banquet, Lan Xichen and the others never had the opportunity to talk about Qiong Qijiao with the Chen family leader.After the evening banquet was finally over, the group of them found Patriarch Chen and explained their intentions.
