Chapter Thirty-Six: Staying up late hurts your health, so let's stay up all night!
Chapter 36: Staying up late is harmful to your health, so stay up all night!
"Princess Princess."
Li Xingyun looked at the girl in the red dress who jumped out and said hello.
"You, you, you!!!!" Li Hongying walked up to Li Xingyun angrily, raised her white chin slightly, pointed at the latter and said: "You said you would come to the Holy Court today, but luckily your father told me to let you come last night
I took the sword post and went to the West Lake with you, got up early and rushed to the Holy Courtyard, but you guy didn't come until the sun had gone down!"
"Uh..." Why does this tone sound so much like that of a savage girlfriend?
But what is the plan of the general in Tiance Mansion? Let Li Hongying go to the Famous Sword Tournament to practice?
By the way... Li Xingyun has been ignoring a question, and he stepped forward with a smile and asked: "Princess, what level of martial arts are you at?"
"Fifth grade." Li Hongying took the gun into her arms, folded her hands on her chest, and raised her chin proudly and said.
Five...Fifth grade.
A fifteen-year-old fifth-grade martial artist!
The fifth grade of Confucianism is Hanlin!
Even Ye Lingyun from Ye Mansion, who is known as having the appearance of a martial god, was nothing more than this when he was fifteen years old, right?
"The proud daughter of the princess, she is unparalleled in beauty!" Li Xingyun praised. After all, with a fifth-level warrior accompanying him to participate in the famous sword competition, the personal safety of the accompanying person can be greatly guaranteed.
He moved his eyes down and took a look at the slender and straight beautiful legs. These thighs had to be hugged first.
After being praised by Li Xingyun, a scholar who is regarded as a saint by the world, Li Hongying has the nature of a girl after all, and the boredom of waiting all day has completely disappeared.
He said proudly: "If I don't have any strength, how dare I threaten to protect you."
"Okay, you can settle in this courtyard first." Shu Lan saw that the two parties had finished talking, and continued: "There is everything you need in it, but Li Xingyun, you are not staying in the Holy Courtyard in the short term. If you go there just for a day,
There is no need to clean up a separate courtyard. You can just make do here for one night, there is an extra room anyway. Just don’t run out casually and disturb the meditation of other female Confucian cultivators."
"Disciple, please remember Teacher Shulan's teachings!" Li Xingyun naturally followed the instructions, after all, he would not suffer any loss.
"I'm in the high pavilion on the east side. If anything happens, you can come to me."
"Excuse me, Teacher Shu Lan."
After saying polite words, Shulan turned and left.
Li Xingyun, Qin Keqing, and Li Hongying looked at each other in confusion.
"What...are we going to do now? Are we going to sleep now? Isn't that too boring?" Li Hongying is a person who likes lively activities. It would be more uncomfortable than killing her to let her fall asleep right after her genius is darkened.
.
"Play chess?" Qin Keqing knew that scholars like to play some elegant things, so he gave a suggestion.
As soon as Li Hongying heard about the chess, calligraphy and painting stuff, she trembled all over: "Let me play with guns to open your eyes, so let's forget about playing chess."
Li Xingyun recalled how the girl almost burned down the entire stage at the Tiance Mansion martial arts arena yesterday, and decisively refused: "Although I don't know the quality of the building in the Holy Courtyard, you still don't have to do it."
"I'm not too excited. I'm a little carried away. You'll pay attention once you get used to it." Li Hongying blushed, then looked at the young man's handsome face and asked: "Li Xingyun, are all of you scholars well-read?"
Group of books?”
"That's natural!" Li Xingyun said proudly, "How can you be called a scholar if you don't have some ink in your belly?"
"It's a long night, why don't you tell me some stories?"
Listening to scholars tell stories is the only Confucian skill she longs for.
Because scholars are thick-skinned and like to brag!
"I'm leaving tomorrow. I have nothing to do tonight anyway. What story do you want to hear?" Li Xingyun stepped into the courtyard with a relaxed tone. The two people following him heard his relaxed words and their stomachs were filled with ink.
Even though he looked confident in choosing a theme, he was also a little surprised.
"What story? Was there a fight?" Li Hongying's eyes lit up and her curiosity was aroused.
"Of course there is."
"That's it!"
Listening to the two of them singing and harmonizing, the decision was made immediately. Only Qin Keqing was worried about Li Xingyun's physical condition.
He reminded: "Your Majesty, I worked hard yesterday and will have to get up early tomorrow. I can just talk for half an hour."
"No problem!" Li Hongying was the first to agree cheerfully.
The three of them entered the main room. Qin Keqing saw a kitchen next to it and made several plates of pastries.
I made another pot of tea and put some grapes and fruits on the table.
The three of them sat around a table, both women holding their chins with their hands and staring at Li Xingyun with bright eyes.
And Li Xingyun has already chosen the theme of the story.
There is nothing more popular and fresh in people's memory than the stories of the four great classics.
But Red Mansion is not suitable. Although there are many fights in the Three Kingdoms, many of the characters involved have also appeared in Star Source Continent. Zhuge Kongming is even a saint of this era.
Water Margin is not suitable for a girl like Li Hongying to listen to. After all, how many people who went to Liangshan can have a righteous heart like Li Hongying if they think about it carefully?
"I have a story called 'Journey to the West'."
"Journey to the West?" When the two girls heard the title of the story, they were puzzled, but they continued to listen.
Li Xingyun explained their doubts: "This story mainly tells the story of a monkey who was born to follow the Taoist Bodhi Patriarch and made trouble in the heavenly palace. After that, he met Tang Monk, Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk and White Dragon Horse. He traveled west to obtain Buddhist scriptures and experienced many experiences along the way.
It is a story of going through hardships and defeating demons, going through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, and finally reaching the Western Heaven to see Tathagata Buddha and finally becoming a Buddha."
"It sounds wonderful." Li Hongying's eyes were filled with light, and she hurriedly begged as if she had found a treasure: "Speak quickly, speak quickly!"
Wonderful, definitely wonderful!
In Star Source Continent, there are gods, demons, demons and savages, there are also disputes between Taoism and Buddhism, and there is also a warrior who likes to fight. The figures of other systems can be seen in Journey to the West.
Not to mention Li Hongying, even Li Xingyun, who is used to hearing the stories of Journey to the West, has never had a sense of immersion like now.
Li Xingyun cleared his throat and began to talk from the beginning: "There is a flower and fruit mountain on the seaside of Dongsheng Shenzhou Aolai Country. A stone on the top of the mountain received the essence of the sun and moon and gave birth to a stone monkey. The stone monkey bravely explored the waterfalls and springs and discovered
Shuiliandong is regarded as the "Monkey King" by the monkeys..."
"The Monkey King led his group of monkeys to live freely in the mountains for hundreds of years. He occasionally heard that immortals, Buddhas, and gods could escape reincarnation and live as long as the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, so he sailed across the sea alone on a raft, traveling from Nanbuzhou to Xiniuhezhou.
, he was finally taken in by the Taoist Patriarch Subhuti in the Sanxing Cave of Xianyue in Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai, and gave him the Dharma name Sun Wukong. Wukong fully understood the wonderful principles of Bodhi in Sanxing Cave, learned the seventy-two transformations and somersault clouds, and returned to Huaguo.
Mountain, destroying demons in one fell swoop, the demon king of the world, the flower and fruit mountain wolf, insect, tiger, leopard and other seventy-two cave demon kings came to worship him..."
As soon as the story started to take off, Li Hongying was deeply obsessed with it. Her eyes were as if no one else was watching, and she was obsessed with the voice of the young man in front of her. The voice was like a magical voice, turning each word into a picture and transmitting it into her mind.
Qin Keqing on the other side was also fascinated by what he heard.
She had heard some stories occasionally, but this was the first time she heard a story with this kind of beginning.
It actually opens from the perspective of a clan of demons, gods and demons. After the Confucian sages destroyed the demons and demons, only scholars dared to tell the story from the perspective of gods, demons and demons.
The more novel something is, the more it will attract the minds of two people.
When Li Hongying heard that Sun Wukong was suffering from having no weapons, he also thought that Sun Wukong would find a suitable spear like him.
But when they heard that Sun Wukong actually broke a spear and other weapons at will in the Dragon Palace, and finally chose a Ruyi golden cudgel, some people gritted their teeth and complained: "The ignorant Monkey King."
Qin Keqing and Li Xingyun were already accustomed to her gun-hungry temperament, but they didn't want to take part in it, and they reacted so aggressively.
"It was a happy life of drinking and drinking day and night, but Sun Wukong was hooked by the underworld one day! Then he made a big fuss in the underworld, and hooked the names of all monkeys on life and death. The Dragon King and Ksitigarbha went to heaven to complain, and Taibai Jinxing suggested
The Jade Emperor recruited Sun Wukong, and the Jade Emperor made the move. The Jade Emperor named Sun Wukong "Bi Ma Wen" and asked him to take care of the horses. Sun Wukong was furious when he learned that this was a humble official position.
!”
Speaking of this, Li Hongying's eyes were filled with stars, and she said emotionally: "The Monkey King!!! How awesome!"
"Where's the back? Where's the back??"
Li Xingyun glanced at the wick that was about to burn out on the table. He had good night vision, but he never felt that the night got dark so fast and time passed so quickly.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Hongying and Qin Keqing didn't feel the passage of time at all. Even the wicks were almost burned out and they didn't realize that it was getting very late.
Li Xingyun reminded: "Princess, it's getting late."
"Late??" Li Hongying didn't pay attention at all. After being reminded, she turned to look at the moonlight outside the door. It was almost midnight!
Sleep? Or continue listening?
"Can you listen for a little longer?" She turned her head decisively and looked at Li Xingyun with a tearful face. I saw pity and begged: "Just a little while..."
"But where is Sister Qing? Do you want to go and have a rest?" Li Xingyun didn't want to face that girl's face that could easily make people feel guilty. Then he turned around and saw the beautiful girl staring at him with eyes full of energy.
woman.
The corners of Qin Keqing's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a mesmerizing smile: "Don't think of any wrong ideas."
Got spotted...
"Then continue!" Li Xingyun's unyielding soul was fighting.
"Aren't you afraid of staying up late and hurting yourself?" Qin Keqing said with a smile as she thought about how tired the other party looked after a hard night last night.
Li Xingyun: "Staying up late will hurt your health, otherwise I'll forget about it! At worst, I'll have to rest on the carriage tomorrow!"
"Don't worry, I brought a white dragon chariot from my father. It's a rare cultural treasure. I guarantee that you will be comfortable tomorrow." Li Hongying also patted her slightly developed chest to solve her worries.
"So, keep talking!"
"Speaking of which, Monkey Sun..."
In the main room, Li Xingyun spoke passionately, Li Hongying and Qin Keqing were obsessed with it, and the three of them completely forgot about time!
