After passing through the book, the devil wants to kill me

In the early morning of the second day, Lou Yun called the servant and brought up a pigeon.

This pigeon looks exactly the same as the last one, I don't know if it is really the last one, or because the pigeons are all similar in size, I can't tell the difference.

He tied the letter up two or three times, touched the pigeon's smooth head, and said: "Send the letter to Qi Chao, and hope to come back with a reply this time."

Lingge shook her head, rolled her eyes twice, and replied, "Cuckoo!"

"Go." Lou Yun sent it into the air, and the pigeon fluttered a few times and flew away.He stood in front of the window and watched for a while, then turned and went out, and went downstairs for dinner.

The pigeon flew a few hundred meters according to the route, and suddenly felt a familiar force coming, and suddenly the surroundings suddenly changed, looked up, and saw a familiar figure.

Lingge: "..."

Do you cultivators like to play like this?

The pigeon was very angry, but the coercion of the people in front of it was still there, it didn't dare to coo, and didn't dare to move, allowing the hand to walk on it.After stroking for a while, he took off the letter tied to his foot.

After the person in front of him took the letter, he still didn't intend to let it go.It looked at the man eagerly, watched him open the letter gently with his eyes, and read it for a long time, as if he was thinking about something through the letter.

The hand stroked the head up and down, following the texture of the feathers.It heard the man whispering, as if asking it, but it didn't seem to be asking it: "Is he still talking to you and asking you to take the reply back?"

After speaking, the corner of the man's mouth curled up, and he seemed to be smiling, and continued in a good mood: "I will let you take it back, but it can't be so fast, I have to wait for a while."

As she said that, Lingge's eyes went dark, and she was thrown into the receiving ring along with the letter.

Lou Yun stood on the railing on the second floor and looked down to see someone already sitting in the lobby on the first floor.

Dressed in green clothes and white gauze, her demeanor is elegant and charming. Looking from a distance, it is indeed heart-stirring.

Although she is as beautiful as jade, in Lou Yun's heart, everything is not worth half of Qi Chao's temperament.As for Qin Xinyue, Lou Yun was willing to bring her to Qi Chao, but it was because the original author appointed her.

Lou Yun walked down the stairs to the first floor and sat down beside Qin Xinyue.Qin Xinyue looked up at him, and smiled softly: "Morning Louxian."

Lou Yun nodded: "Good morning Miss Xiaoyue, how did you rest yesterday?"

"Thank you Xianshang for your concern. Xiaoyue rested well yesterday. Thanks to Ji Xianshang, otherwise I wouldn't know where I slept yesterday."

Lou Yun laughed awkwardly, if it wasn't for Brother Ji's willfulness, he booked up all the inns in the city, where would there be such a problem.

"I heard from you yesterday that you are going to practice in Xianmen, what are your arrangements?"

Qin Xinyue thought for a while, and said: "My mother has an old relationship with the head of Jinghua Xianmen, and it happens that I practice swordsmanship, so I asked me to visit Jianzun to see if I could get some advice from him. "

Lou Yun nodded.The reason is consistent with the original book, Qin Xinyue went to Jinghua to practice, that's why she went to find Qi Chao.How did it break in the end? It seems that when she enters the fairy gate, there will be no further text.But this time, the two will definitely meet.

Lou Yun said again: "Coincidentally, I am Jianzun's apprentice. I will take you to see Master after I return to Xianmen in two days."

Qin Xinyue paused while drinking tea, raised her eyes in surprise, and looked at Lou Yun:

"Really? I heard that the sword master has never accepted an apprentice for hundreds of years. You must be very powerful to win his favor?"

Lou Yun coughed a few times in embarrassment, and said, "I don't know...it just feels like luck."

Qin Xinyue wanted to speak again, but a person came down the stairs.She glanced at him, her expression froze, she restrained herself, and walked away in the opposite direction of Lou Yun calmly.

Lou Yun turned his head and saw Mozun approaching lightly, he was in a good mood visible to the naked eye.

"What are you talking about, so happy?" Mozun sat beside Lou Yun and said casually.

"It's nothing." Lou Yun didn't want to be in front of the Demon Lord, so he proposed to take Qin Xinyue to see Qi Chao. If possible, he even wanted to hide Qin Xinyue so that the Demon Lord could not see her until she was safely sent to Qi Chao before.

He changed the topic: "By the way, the Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow is very interesting."

Mozun smiled: "So looking forward to it? This is a festival for mortals to express their hearts. There are also people who take this opportunity to light lamps to pray for blessings and make wishes to immortals."

"Actually, there is a legend about the origin of this festival."

A familiar voice came from far behind, Ji Qingwen walked over slowly with a fan in one hand, still followed by Bai Jun.

Taking a closer look, the white lines on the wrists of the two have disappeared, and it seems that some kind of agreement was reached last night.

Qin Xinyue's eyes lit up, and she seemed interested: "What legend is it?"

Ji Qingwen and Bai Jun sat on the same side of the square table, Ji Qingwen closed his fan and said with a smile:

"It is said that thousands of years ago, when immortals and demons fought against each other, a pair of masters and apprentices passed by this place. They couldn't bear to see this scene, so they rescued each other. After a long time, the war here finally subsided, but the apprentice was in the war. people die.

"Later, the master commemorated his apprentice and lit a lantern every day to pray for him, hoping that his soul would reunite and be reincarnated as soon as possible. The people here are also very grateful to them. This custom of lighting lanterns and praying has been passed down like this."

After Ji Qingwen finished speaking, Lou Yun suddenly realized and nodded.The legend of the master and apprentice who thought about the world, who did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives, and the embarrassing friendship is quite touching.

Unexpectedly, there was a sneer from the table, and everyone looked at the reputation, Bai Jun looked disapproving, and his eyes were slightly mocking.

"This one sounds pretty good, but what I know is another version."

"Oh? There are other explanations?" Ji Qingwen raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

Bai Jun said: "The reasons are all the same, but this apprentice did not save people to death during the war, but was framed to death. After his death, his soul was scattered, and there was no possibility of soul reunion and stepping into reincarnation.

"After his death, his master became demonic. He slaughtered all the people who had framed and watched his apprentice's death coldly. He lit their souls as wicks, imprisoned them in lanterns, and made atonement for his apprentice every day."

After Bai Jun finished speaking, there was a dead silence on the table.After a few seconds, Lou Yun couldn't help but said, "What happened next?"

"Later?" Bai Jun said coldly, "People who have lost their souls can't come back, even if they slaughter thousands or tens of thousands of people, and light thousands of lanterns, they won't come back.

"His master stayed here and refused to leave. For hundreds of years, he lit the lamp every day, and finally one day the wick burned out, and he disappeared suddenly. No one has seen him since then."

The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while, and no one spoke.

Qin Xinyue looked frightened, and lowered her head to fiddle with the dim sum in front of her; Lou Yun was thinking for a while, with lowered eyes, wondering what he was thinking; Mozun seemed to have no change, his eyes were indifferent, he turned the teacup a few times, and sipped it a mouthful.

Ji Qingwen laughed dryly, forcibly eased the atmosphere and said:

"Haha, it's just a legend after all. Who knows if it's true or not, just listen to it—by the way, there's still one day left before the Lantern Festival. Anyway, there's nothing else to do. Why don't we play leaf drama later."

Lou Yun echoed, "Okay, okay, but what is Ye Zixi?"

Ji Qingwen unfolded the fan in his hand and placed it horizontally, and then a flowing picture appeared in the sky above the fan.

"This is a popular entertainment method among the people. The rules are very simple. You can understand it after reading it."

Lou Yun stared at the picture for a while, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became, and finally he realized:

Isn't this thing just mahjong!

After the picture was played, Ji Qingwen put away his fan and said, "You understand, this game is usually played by four people, and the five of us can take turns..."

"No, you guys can play, I won't come." Bai Jun interrupted abruptly with a straight face.

Ji Qingwen gave him a blank look, as if he had given up trying to persuade him.

"...The four of us are just right, but this is only fun if there are rewards and punishments."

Lou Yun became interested: "What kind of reward and punishment method?"

Betting on Lingshi?I feel that he is the only one here who lacks the most.But what else could there be?

Ji Qingwen thought for a while, and said, "It doesn't feel very interesting to bet on the spirit stone. How about this? The final big winner can make demands on other people, ask questions or ask others to do things, but not too much, how about it?"

Lou Yun: "..."

What is this mahjong and king game combined?

But when I think about it carefully, I have played mahjong more or less in the past, so I have some foundation, and now I can't lose by playing with them.

So Lou Yun was the first to nod and said: "Okay, let's do this, what do you think?"

Qin Xinyue looked very interested and nodded in agreement.Mozun didn't speak, as if he agreed by default.

Lou Yun was very happy, and was already thinking about what to ask for if he won.

This opportunity is so rare, how about asking Mozun not to meet Qin Xinyue again?

This seems to be able to solve a big problem.

After the four of them finished their breakfast, Ji Qingwen asked the boy for a set of cards, found a clean and elegant place to sit, and started playing mahjong.

Bai Jun disappeared from the table, looking at Ji Qingwen's expression, he didn't seem to care much.It was as if he wasn't the one who held Bai Jun close to him yesterday.

Lou Yun regained his senses and concentrated on playing mahjong.

After two rounds, Lou Yun faintly felt something was wrong.

After ten rounds, Lou Yun couldn't laugh anymore.

After twenty innings, Lou Yun's heart sank.

In the evening, after the liquidation was completed, Ji Qingwen held up his fan with a smile, and tapped on Lou Yun's head:

"Hahaha Junior Brother Lou, it looks like you need to practice more! Let me see who wins the most this time—"

He pinched his fingers for a while, and wondered: "Hey, you two are actually the same."

Mozun raised his eyes when he heard the words, and cast a cold glance at Qin Xinyue.

Qin Xinyue shuddered, her back was covered in cold sweat, she hurriedly laughed and said, "Why, Ji Xianshang, you must have misunderstood, and if you do the calculations carefully, obviously Zhaoxian should have more of me."

Ji Qingwen calculated for a while, a little confused: "Ah? Is that so? That's fine."

He turned his head to Mozun and said with a smile: "Congratulations Brother Zhao, according to the agreement, you can make a request or ask a question to Junior Brother Lou."

Mozun nodded and turned to look at Lou Yun.

Lou Yun felt a cool gaze swept over him, with a bit of thought.As if he was a piece of fish on a chopping board, Mozun held a knife and was considering where to cut it.

"...What request do you want to make?" Lou Yun's head drooped slightly, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he looked a little frustrated, "Or what question do you want to ask?"

Mozun looked at him quietly for a while, then suddenly smiled.

"Come here, let you do something."

Lou Yun approached suspiciously, he felt the Mozun lower his head, a hot breath passed by his ear, and then a word floated into his mind.

Lou Yun's ears turned red.
