"I'm hungry, can you go find some food?" Bai Yun said in a soft and charming tone.
Lingfeng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He looked at Bai Yun and said with a smile, "I'm hungry too. What do you want to eat? I'll get it."
Bai Yun replied: "I like to eat fresh bamboo shoots."
"Fresh bamboo shoots? Okay, I'll get them." Lingfeng said happily, turned around and walked out quickly.
Huangdiyuan has a hall dedicated to food, similar to the restaurants outside.
People in Tianjian Village rarely make their own meals. They often go to the halls of various courtyards to eat, or buy home ownership homes to eat.
Lingfeng bought the food and took it home. He took out the food from the food box and had a warm meal at home.
After the meal, Lingfeng found clean bedding and laid them in the east room. He stayed in the west room for the night as promised.
Due to his joy and excitement, he suffered from insomnia. Unable to fall asleep, he sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced the secret techniques of the Black Turtle.
Unknowingly, the impetuous and confused thoughts disappeared, and I practiced until dawn, gaining some insights.
At dawn, Lingfeng went out to buy food and finished breakfast with Bai Yun.
At three o'clock in the morning, Senior Brother Xing came to the door and delivered the marriage order arrow.
He treated the guests with spirit and spoke respectfully, and Senior Brother Xing left with a happy face.
Bai Yun holds the marriage order arrow.
Lingfeng proposed to go on an outing with Bai Yun and send her back to Baihe Town at noon.
Bai Yun agreed without hesitation.
Lingfeng happily took the bamboo flute and Baiyun and went out.
The two of them left Tianjian Manor and walked side by side on the green mountain road.
They were silent, and Lingfeng's hand quietly held Baiyun's soft little hand while walking.
"Lingfeng, will you be able to cultivate quietly for a long time after entering the inner sect?" Bai Yun asked softly while holding hands.
"I heard that it is true. When you enter the inner sect to cultivate quietly, you should have no distractions. You are not allowed to go out for a few years." Lingfeng responded, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
"It all depends on people. I believe you will definitely achieve great success in the future." Bai Yun looked into the distance and spoke softly.
"I will work hard to get freedom and marry you as soon as possible." Lingfeng said with determination.
"Haste makes waste. Don't be impatient for success in your cultivation. I will always wait for you." Bai Yun said softly, looking at the floating clouds in the sky with her beautiful eyes.
"Xiaoyun, thank you." Lingfeng's heart felt warm and joyful when he heard it, and he responded sincerely.
"Let's go there and sit for a while, and I'll listen to you play the flute." Bai Yunyu pointed to the top of the small stone hill on the left and said softly.
"Okay, let's go up." Lingfeng responded excitedly, holding Bai Yunyu's hand and walking up to the small stone hill.
They stood on the top of the hill and looked down at the mountains to the east, taking in the beautiful undulating green scenery.
Lingfeng took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Xiaoyun, let me play a song for you to listen to."
"Blow it." Bai Yun looked down at the mountain with calm eyes and responded softly.
The spirit wind took the flute and brought it to his mouth, and a thin soft sound appeared.
Bai Yun's mind moved, and she lowered her eyes and listened carefully.
The soft sound is low but clearly audible, like a thin stream flowing into the heart.
Gradually, there are occasional pearls jumping in the soft and thin sound, and it is crisp and short, like the splashing of a spring.
The sound of the flute gradually became louder and louder, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, like a clear spring in the mountains swirling and flowing.
As the spring water pours down, the sound of the flute gradually increases, just like the small mountain springs that gather together and gradually become a torrent. With the momentum of never returning, it hits rocks and trees, rushes down the mountain and merges into the river. Under the turbulent turbid waves,
In fact, they are competing with each other and are unwilling to sink.
Unconsciously, half an hour passed, the spring flowed into the river, and the sound of the flute stopped.
Following the passionate emotion of the music, Bai Yun suddenly returned to reality with a shock.
Lingfeng put down the bamboo flute, turned around and said gently: "Xiaoyun, the name of the flute song is 'Quan', does it sound good?"
Bai Yun's beautiful eyes were astonished and she asked: "The sound of the flute interprets the heroic momentum of a spring flowing into a river. Where did you learn from it?"
Lingfeng recalled: "It was taught by Grandpa Zhou. Grandpa Zhou was a Confucian scholar and had a wide range of knowledge, such as playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I only learned music rhythm and literacy."
Bai Yun nodded and said softly: "Your flute music is very contagious. I listen to it and my mind follows the music. I have no comparison with it."
Lingfeng laughed and said: "It's too much praise, but I'm still a mortal."
Bai Yun smiled, raised her hand and pointed to the higher hill on the west side, whispering: "Lingfeng, let's go there again."
"Okay, let's go." Lingfeng responded happily, holding Bai Yun's little hand and heading west down to the next hill.
The two of them had just walked for a while when a figure appeared on the hill, standing there was a man and a woman.
The woman is as beautiful as a fairy in a light blue dress, but she is Zhou Yan'er.
The man was wearing a green robe, he was in his mid-twenties, he had sharp eyebrows and tiger eyes, and he looked very heroic.
"Fourth brother, is there anything unusual about that girl?" Zhou Yan'er asked softly.
"That girl is ordinary, but Li Lingfeng is extraordinary. His flute music actually lost our minds. It's really amazing." The man in green robe frowned and responded.
"Fourth brother, Li Lingfeng has a clear family background and is a loyal man. He was admitted to the outer sect because he has special powers." Zhou Yaner explained softly.
"I don't think he is a loyal person. Li Lingfeng's flute music is full of fighting spirit. He is now a little spring, but he has ambitions that are unwilling to be harmonious. Once he succeeds in practicing immortal magic, he will be arrogant and unruly." The man in blue robe.
He said coldly.
"Music is music after all. How can one judge the meaning by listening to the music? Fourth brother is in the advanced stage of his cultivation, so he should not be afraid of those who come after him." Zhou Yan'er said displeasedly.
The green-robed man frowned and said coldly: "Ninth sister, there is no need to provoke. I will not hurt the relationship between the brother and sister for Li Lingfeng, but raising a tiger with impulsiveness will lead to trouble. Our Tianjian Village has learned a lot from the past."
Zhou Yaner looked into the distance silently, and after a moment, she whispered: "Thank you, fourth brother."
The man in green robe said gently: "I know that you have cultivated Li Lingfeng in return, and fourth brother is willing to treat Li Lingfeng well."
"Thank you, fourth brother." Zhou Yan'er said softly and sincerely.
"Don't tell anyone about Wang Lei's death. You have to be wary of Liu Feng. Wang Lei was probably killed by Liu Feng." Zhuang Rong, a man in green robe, was wary of Zhou Yan'er.
"Liu Feng killed Wang Lei?" Zhou Yan'er asked in surprise.
Zhuang Rong, a man in green robe, said: "Liu Feng looks rough and loyal, but in fact he is very scheming. Li Lingfeng and Liu Feng were in a group that day, so according to common sense, they wouldn't be too far apart.
Li Lingfeng wounded Wang Lei with a snake, and Wang Lei was probably plotted by Liu Feng while extracting the poison.
No matter what the truth is, now that Liu Feng has become a disciple of the Great Elder, you and I must not be cruel to Liu Feng or provoke hatred, we just need to be careful."
Zhou Yaner listened and nodded thoughtfully.
...
When the spirit wind approaches noon, Bai Yun is sent back to Baishengtang.
Mr. Bai treated Lingfeng in a friendly manner. He specially held a banquet and invited six famous relatives and neighbors from Baihe Town to accompany him.
We had a drink and drank in a cordial atmosphere for nearly two hours.
Finally, Lingfeng said goodbye, and the Bai family's descendants were sent all the way to the town's entrance.
Because Mr. Bai was present, Lingfeng could only bid farewell to Bai Yun in a polite manner, and could not embrace her with the courage of wine.
He reluctantly said goodbye to Bai Yun, leaving his sweetheart with joy and a bit of sadness. After this separation, he might not see her again for two or three years.
On the way, Lingfeng was shocked to see Zhou Yan'er standing on the roadside.
He hurried over in surprise and asked: "Sister, are you waiting for me here?"
Zhou Yaner nodded and said softly: "I still have something to say to you, so come with me."
Lingfeng was confused and followed Zhou Yan'er into the woods on the roadside.
Zhou Yan'er stopped and turned around, looking at Lingfeng with soft eyes, and whispered: "Drunk people can easily cause chaos, which is not conducive to one's own mind cultivation. It is better to drink less in the future."
Lingfeng's heart warmed, and he looked at Zhou Yan'er with a strange emotion, and said gently: "Today is a special day. I drank wine. Normally I don't drink."
Zhou Yaner smiled softly and said, "I should congratulate you today."
Lingfeng nodded, feeling a sense of loss in his heart. He blurted out: "Sister, why don't you get married? Is it because you have practiced immortality?"
Zhou Yaner was surprised, her eyebrows slightly furrowed and her eyes were displeased.
Their eyes met, Lingfeng realized that he was being abrupt, raised his hand and said regretfully: "Sister, don't blame me, I know I was wrong."
Zhou Yaner looked coldly at Lingfeng and said indifferently: "The man I like married another woman, and I have given up the idea of getting married in this life."
Lingfeng nodded silently, and he did not dare to ask any more questions.
Zhou Yan'er asked: "I heard you play the flute and your music skills are superb. Who taught you this?"
Lingfeng was startled and replied: "Grandpa Zhou, my sister knows about it."
Zhou Yan'er nodded and said softly: "Your flute music has the power of enchanting music. Please don't play the flute inside and outside Tianjian Manor in the future, otherwise it will cause you trouble."
Lingfeng was surprised. Since he entered Tianjian Manor, he had never played the flute in the manor. He felt bored and walked far away to play the flute.
Zhou Yaner's explanation puzzled him. Can playing the flute cause trouble?
He nodded obediently and said, "Sister, I've written it down."
Zhou Yaner said softly: "I have one more thing to tell you and ask you what you think."
Lingfeng nodded and said, "Sister, please tell me."
Zhou Yaner looked at him deeply and said softly: "What I want to say is some of the history of Tianjian Village. Since the establishment of Tianjian Village, there have been more than ten rebellions.
The first time was one hundred and seventy years ago, when the Patriarch accepted seventeen disciples, among whom there was a man with excellent abilities named Nan Yalong.
When Nan Yalong was twenty-eight years old and in the middle of his spiritual death, for unknown reasons, he suddenly rebelled and left Tianjian Village without knowing where he ended up.
Fifty years after Nan Yalong, two disciples from the outer sect with excellent abilities reached the stage of spiritual silence and both ran away and rebelled.
After that, more than ten high-level disciples defected one after another.
The rebellion of these high-level disciples caused huge negative consequences.
The elders were extremely strict on accepting disciples from outside, and formed the rules for accepting disciples that put morality first.
As a result, good materials and jade are prevented from entering the inner sect, making Tianjian Village's overall strength gradually lag behind other cultivation sects."
Lingfeng was stunned and guessed the meaning of Zhou Yan'er's words.
Zhou Yaner looked at him and said softly: "Lingfeng, after entering the inner gate, you may have resentment in your heart due to injustice or bullying. I want to ask you, if you have deep resentment, will you betray Tianjian Village?"
?"
Lingfeng was speechless after hearing this. Living with dignity is the real life. If you are bullied and unfair and do not fight, life will be so humiliating and sad.
He can swear that he will never betray Tianjian Village.
But he couldn't say it, he didn't want to use lies to deceive this sister who was really good to him.
