Chapter 20 Laziness
Chapter 20 Laziness
"Who is Chen Jing?" Jiang Shuo looked puzzled at the frightened monks in front of him.
Yin Sui took two steps forward, blocking Jiang Shuo's sight, with a pure and polite smile on his face, and said calmly, "What do you want me for?"
"You, you..." Senior Brother Wang looked like he had seen a ghost, and raised his finger to Yin Sui trembling, his voice changed: "Aren't you dead?!"
Yin Sui's smile remained unchanged, but his voice sank: "Senior brother, what does this mean? I don't understand."
Senior Brother Wang trembled in fear for a moment, and managed to calm down: "You were seriously injured and died a few months ago, and I ordered someone to carry you down the mountain..."
Yin Sui's thoughts changed sharply, and he thought of several countermeasures in the blink of an eye, but was rejected one by one. Finally, he restrained his smile and said coldly: "Since I am dead, why come to recognize me now?"
Brother Wang's mind was in a knot, and he asked in disbelief: "...Aren't you dead?"
Yin Sui kept silent and let him understand it by himself.
Sure enough, not explaining is the best explanation. Brother Wang gradually changed from initial shock and fear to suspicion.However, he carefully recalled the previous experience, frowned and stared at Yin Sui, and said firmly: "Impossible, you would have passed away by then, and the body was carried away after three days of death."
"..." Yin Sui was really annoyed that this person's pig brain still had a bright day, and he said indifferently: "Senior brother, I have forgotten most of the things I did at the master's school earlier, so don't mention it again."
Jiang Shuo had been standing quietly at the side all this time, then he suddenly made a sound and said softly, "Which sect are you disciples from?"
Brother Wang's out-of-body spirit was called back by this sentence. He stared blankly at Jiang Shuo for a long time before saying, "We are... from the Shangqing sect."
Shangqing is also considered a great sect, Jiang Shuo had some vague impressions, and said: "I am Jiuhua Jiang Shuo, this is the youngest apprentice of my Taoist companion Dongyan, named Yu Yun. The Chen Jing you just mentioned Who is it? What does it have to do with my faction?"
Senior Brother Wang was a little stupefied at first when he heard his self-introduction, but when he heard that Yin Sui was Dongyan's disciple, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in surprise, "What? He is Dongyan Immortal's disciple...disciple ?”
Yin Sui was restless and couldn't bear it any longer. He turned around and pulled Jiang Shuo's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Master, let's find a guest room to rest, it's already late..."
Jiang Shuo patted his hand lightly to comfort him, raised his eyes to senior brother Wang and the others, and said, "Do you recognize it clearly, this is Chen Jing, your disciple of Shangqing?"
Senior Brother Wang looked at Yin Sui suspiciously, and swore: "Unless I'm blind, I won't fail to recognize him!"
Yin Sui's handsome face was gloomy.
Jiang Shuo asked again: "You said that Chen Jing is dead, but my little apprentice is standing here alive, is there a misunderstanding?"
Senior Brother Wang frowned tightly, shook his head, and said uncertainly: "I don't know, but Chen Jing died after being hit by the big demon Yin Sui, it is impossible for him to come back from the dead..."
Yin Sui's mind seemed to be pulled lightly by a silk thread, and forgotten memories flooded in.He stared at Senior Brother Wang's normally fat face, and gradually remembered why he found this city familiar.
In Chifeng City, in his previous life, when Yin Sui was being chased and killed by people from the cultivation world until he had nowhere to go, he once hid himself and escaped into this city for a period of time.
Calculate the time, but it was only a few months ago.The days after Yin Sui's rebirth were so comfortable that he almost forgot about this bloody and hasty escape.
He also remembered the Shangqing faction that Chifeng City was a large city under the protection of the Shangqing sect. From time to time, monks would come down to play and get rid of little demons by the way, so there were not uncommon members of the Shangqing sect in the city.
Coincidentally, when Yin Sui was seriously injured and on the verge of death, he seemed to bump into a few of them.
Seeing that he was seriously injured, those few disciples who were short-sighted and low-cultivation boldly came forward with their swords to take his head, but finally Yin Sui became murderous and beat them all to death.
... Yin Sui raised his hand hidden in his sleeve subconsciously, wanting to touch his chest, but stopped in the middle of the movement.
——So what.
The owner of this body was originally killed by Yin Sui.
"Chen Jing" wanted to kill him before he was alive, but he even snatched his home after he died.
At other times, Yin Sui would have sneered a few times and made some mockery, but now that Jiang Shuo was by his side, he felt heavy breathing for no reason, wishing he could immediately cover Senior Brother Wang's mouth so that he could never speak again Half a bullshit.
When Yin Sui was in turmoil, Jiang Shuo slightly tilted his head and gave him a look.
The young man's face was slightly pale. Although he concealed it well, Jiang Shuo could still find his tight waist and long eyelashes that drooped slightly.
Jiang Shuo sighed in his heart, turned his head and said to Senior Brother Wang and the others gently: "Since Yu Yun has entered Jiuhua, he is my disciple of Jiuhua. He will tell me the experience of bringing the dead back to life, so don't bother me." Everyone."
Senior Brother Wang was not quite reconciled, but seeing Jiang Shuo's firm expression, he had no choice but to say, "Then...if you have any doubts about Xianjun Jiang, you can come to Shangqing to find me...cough, we. Under Wang Zhu, I will take my leave first."
After Wang Zhu and his party left, Jiang Shuo took Yin Sui and quickly found a clean inn, planning to stay here tonight.
"Not happy yet?" Seeing Yin Sui's sullen look, Jiang Shuo felt amused, and said, "I won't question you, what are you afraid of?"
Yin Sui pursed his thin lips tightly, looked up at Jiang Shuo after a while, and asked in a low voice, "Master, won't you be suspicious?"
Jiang Shuo said bluntly, "Of course I have doubts."
Yin Sui was startled for a moment: "Then you..."
"I will send voice transmission back to Jiuhua tonight." Jiang Shuo looked away and looked away lightly, but his voice was unhurried and calm, "They will send people to the Shangqing Sect to investigate clearly."
"Everyone has secrets that are hard to tell." Jiang Shuo said, "If you don't want to say it, I naturally won't ask. But rather than letting others find out, I want to hear it from you."
Yin Sui was silent for a long time this time.
The two stood at the door of the inn, and the proprietress in the cabinet looked at them curiously, secretly guessing which sect these two outstanding immortals belonged to.
"If you..." Jiang Shuo couldn't bear to embarrass his little apprentice, and was about to speak out when Yin Sui said:
"I—that palm... really didn't kill me."
His voice was deep and difficult, and there was even a feeling of discomfort in his throat.Yin Sui didn't look Jiang Shuo in the eyes, but said slowly: "I lay in the mass grave for many days, and gradually regained my vitality. After climbing out, I met an old Taoist priest. He saved my life."
Fake, too fake.
At this moment, Yin Sui hoped that Jiang Shuo would question him severely in a suspicious tone, so that at least he would not lie...
So guilty and painful.
But Jiang Shuo said softly, "I understand."
"It's getting late, let's go to the inn to rest." He said.
Yin Sui: "."
Jiang Shuo looked normal and didn't seem to care at all.
In fact, he really thinks it's normal... Xiuxian novels, don't they all have these kinds of routines?As the villain of the righteous way, if the little apprentice's situation is too bizarre, it will make Jiang Shuo suspicious.
After all, almost all the author's pen and ink are devoted to "Yin Sui", the enchanted protagonist.
"Should the two immortals stay in the hotel?" The proprietress greeted her with a smile, and her eyes couldn't stop looking at the two immortal figures in front of her.Especially the one on the left with the Begonia red robe, with elegant and gentle facial features and demeanor, he must be a high-level immortal sent by the sect.
The other well-behaved boy was a little inferior in appearance, but the proprietress took a rough look at him, only to find that his eyes were as dark as black ink, which was intimidating to see, and she didn't dare to look at him a few more times.
Jiang Shuo: "Stay in the hotel, please send some simple meals to the room later."
Jiang Shuo didn't have the habit of fasting, and the young apprentice's cultivation base was still shallow, and he hadn't yet reached the stage of full fasting, so he still had to eat.
"Okay!" The proprietress smiled so much that her eyes were narrowed into slits, and she thought to herself that the two Gods of Wealth would definitely order the most expensive dishes to be served later.
She made a calculation and reported the number.Jiang Shuo had no idea about the money in the lower realm, and when he heard that he wanted to take out his purse to pay the bill, he casually touched his waist, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Jiang Shuo frowned and said, "We..."
The proprietress was still smiling: "What's the matter? Xianjun?"
Only then did Yin Sui, who was in a depressed mood, come back to his senses.He glanced at Jiang Shuo's waist, and realized what Jiang Shuo was embarrassing - his small purse was missing.
Yin Sui frowned, remembering that Jiang Shuo had brought out a whole purse to pay the bill at the dim sum stand just now, and then met Wang Zhu and the others and stayed there for a long time, maybe he was being watched.
When Jiang Shuo was in trouble, Yin Sui suddenly said to the proprietress: "Our money has been stolen."
"..." The proprietress smiled slightly, helplessly: "You two immortals... our family also wants to do business, you see...?"
Yin Sui raised his hand, slammed the sword on the table, and said in a cold voice, "This sword is given to you as a mortgage."
Boss lady: "???"
Jiang Shuo was extremely surprised, it was Yin Sui's natal sword "Zhu"!
"Yu..." He said disapprovingly, but Yin Sui suddenly grabbed his hand and said in a low voice, "Master, leave it to me."
The proprietress is carefully observing the sword.
The wide and thick sword is a faint crimson red, not sharp, but it is cold to the touch, and there is a faint sound of chestnuts, it is a good sword.
The proprietress made up her mind, she raised her eyes and said with a smile: "If Xianjun is willing to give this sword to the shop, it will be no problem to live here for a few days."
Jiang Shuo's expression of disapproval did not disappear until he entered the guest room.
"Let's wait for today," Yin Sui said upon seeing the situation, "I'll redeem it when I have the money in two days after tomorrow."
In fact, he never thought about doing this at all, "Zhu" is his sword, of course he can call it back at will.The lady proprietress of the inn is a mortal, and she cannot prevent the sword from flying away by herself.
But since Jiang Shuo cares... Yin Sui thought to himself, forget it, then go to earn some money tomorrow to make up for the proprietress' rent for tonight.
Jiang Shuo only needs one room tonight.
It doesn't mean anything else, he just thinks that the young apprentice is young and inexperienced, and the two of them should be together to take care of them.
Besides, they are all men, so what is there to avoid?
When Yin Sui saw that there was only one bed in the room, his expression became a little strange.
"...I'll sleep on the floor." Yin Sui turned his eyes away and said dryly, "Just make the bed soft."
Jiang Shuo shook his head: "No, it's cold at night, you're not used to the climate in the lower world, you'll get sick easily."
There is a formation in Jiuhua, and the four seasons are like spring, and the lower realm is indeed much colder.
Yin Sui: "."
Who is more unadapted to the climate of the lower world? He has wandered around for hundreds of years, and the place where he sleeps most often is in caves. Cover with two layers of quilt.
Yin Sui thought this way, so he did so.He hugged three layers of soft quilts on the couch, and Jiang Shuo saw that he was going to hug the fourth quilt, so he hurriedly stopped him amusedly: "That's enough, are you going to build a nest?"
Yin Sui stopped his hands helplessly, not quite happy with that appearance.
"Get some rest early." Jiang Shuo gave the two of them a cleansing formula, straightened the quilt and put them on the couch, feeling drowsy, and said softly, "There is still a distance from the Lingquan, and the location is not clear... …Go and inquire about it early tomorrow.”
Standing in front of the couch, Yin Sui saw Jiang Shuo casually pulling out the jade hairpin that bound his hair, gathering up his snow-white inner robe and shrinking it under the quilt, he felt a rare and innocent feeling of laziness and innocence.
"Sleep... remember to put out the candle." Jiang Shuo said in a daze.
When Yin Sui heard this, he raised his hand very lightly to extinguish the candle, and the room fell into a peaceful silence.He bent down in a mysterious way, and he could see Jiang Shuo's side face under the hazy moonlight.
...Yin Sui suddenly realized that he had lost his ability to describe.
Once when he saw Jiang Shuo, he thought he was good-looking, but he couldn't tell exactly where he was good-looking.But today, Yin Sui stared blankly at the sleeping man for a while, then straightened up abruptly.
He walked a few steps beside the couch, then backed away sullenly, took off his coat and boots stiffly, and lightly lay on his side on the couch, facing the outside.
Jiang Shuo found him in a daze on the couch, groped a few times, and raised the quilt to cover Yin Sui's body.
Yin Sui froze and did not move.
...The three-layer quilt was too hot, Yin Sui felt that he was being placed in a furnace, with dryness surging from the tips of his ears to his feet, and the soft quilt wrapped him like layers of silkworm cocoons, making him breathless. The body is desperately looking for a breakthrough.
Yin Sui endured for a while, and finally couldn't take it anymore - he turned over.
Unexpectedly, this slight movement can also make Jiang Shuo react. Just as Yin Sui was halfway through the turn, he heard Jiang Shuo nasally "hmm" in doubt, and then...kicked him lightly under the quilt.
Yin Sui: "..."
