That day, after Qiao Xianyong woke up at noon, dusk had arrived. Sure enough, as Qi'er said, no one else came to the small courtyard where he lived at night. Except for a few old ladies who brought various exquisite foods, only Qi'er ate with him.
After dinner, Qier seemed to be more relaxed, chatting and laughing with Qiao Xianyong. But once Qiao Xianyong asked about her mother and sister, or anything in the house, Qier would either hesitate or hesitate.
She talked about irrelevant things to prevaricate. After a few times, Qiao Xianyong also realized that she was a loyal servant, so it was difficult to say anything about her master's family. Therefore, she felt at ease and stopped asking questions.
After dinner, Qiao Xianyong was not idle. Old ladies and boys kept bringing things, saying, "My wife asked the young master to choose something he likes and take it with him on the road. If there is nothing he likes, you can buy it in the capital or along the way."
." Along with Qiao's instructions, there were also various items delivered, including more than thirty sets of clothing, shoes and hats of various colors and luxurious materials. Qiao Xianyong looked funny at first, but then he felt bored.
Qier was told to just pick two or three simple styles and elegant colors to carry with them, and please return the others to Madam.
When Qier heard Qiao Xianyong's instructions, she couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.
Qiao Xianyong glanced out of the corner of his eye and asked doubtfully, "Qier, what's wrong with what I said? Why are you laughing?"
Qier put away her smile and said, "Master, except for you, there are no adult men in this house, not to mention the boys who work. Madam has prepared so many clothes these days, and there is no one to wear them except you. You
Qier was asked to take it back to Madam, but Madam asked who to wear it? What's more, look at it, Mr., these clothes and hats are all longer than ordinary people. They are all customized for your height, Mr. Qiao. I don't think I can put them down even if I give them back.
Woolen cloth."
Qiao Xianyong didn't expect this level. Hearing what Qi'er said was reasonable, he had no choice but to say, "Then please take it into this house first, and then find an opportunity to use it after we return from the capital."
Little did he know that Qiao Xianyong would never return to this mansion for many years to come, let alone have the opportunity to wear so many precious and complicated silks and satins.
Not only clothes, shoes and hats, Qiao also sent people to send countless items, dozens of purses, dozens of forehead wipes, dozens of jade pendants, more than a dozen Ruyi, and many more that Qiao Xianyong had seen.
But the person whose name he couldn't name and Qiao Xianyong came over with something they had never seen before. Qier explained one by one how to use and wear these men's accessories. After listening for a while, Qiao Xianyong told Qier to put them away, but he was the most important.
I picked up a few items, picked a relatively unremarkable purse, put it in, and carried it in my arms.
Qier didn't seem to understand what Qiao Xianyong was doing, and asked, "Sir, you don't like these accessories? I don't know what you like. I'll talk to my wife and young lady later."
Qiao Xianyong waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Qier, it's not that I like it or not, but it doesn't matter to me at all. In any case, I am an ordinary person in the world, so I just wear ordinary clothes. I am not a young man.
I don’t envy those people who are doing something arrogant. You don’t have to say anything to the madam and the young lady. If they want to blame, just blame me."
Hearing this, Qier didn't ask any more questions. Seeing that it was already getting late, she helped Qiao Xianyong to sleep and slept in the east wing outside.
Qiao Xianyong thought he would toss and turn all night long, but unexpectedly he fell asleep quickly that night, and his sleep was extremely sweet and peaceful. He had been alone for more than ten years and thought he was an orphan. He never expected that he would be able to survive in his lifetime.
Seeing the mother I miss so much, and getting a pretty and lovely sister for no reason at all. This is really the greatest surprise and surprise in life.
When Qiao Xianyong woke up, it was still dark, but because he went to bed early last night, he was very energetic at this time. Although it was the end of the month and there was no moonlight, it seemed that lanterns were lit all night outside the house, and it could seep in from the window.
There was a faint light. Qiao Xianyong used this light to glance at the Western clock on the bedside. It was almost midnight.
At Yinshi, he couldn't help but take off the Xiansong Sword from his neck, which he never left while sleeping. He took off the scabbard and clamped the Xiansong Sword between his palms. The Xiansong Sword was still completely black and unresponsive. Qiao Xianyong
But he didn't have any pajamas, so he sat in a daze, thinking of Master in his mind.
There was only a slight "click" sound, and the long needle of the self-ringing bell moved to the exact position. The Xiansong Sword in Qiao Xianyong's palm suddenly lit up without warning, and then became completely transparent. Qiao Xianyong could see the sword very clearly again.
There were several bloodshot red lines in his body. With the last experience, Qiao Xianyong was calmer at this time.
He sat up suddenly, crossed his legs and got into a meditating posture, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes tightly, and drove a small stream of zhenqi in his body to circulate through the meridians of his body. And just like last time, at this time, Qiao Xianyong's fingertips on Shaoze's left and right hands,
Shaochong, Guanchong, Shangyang and other acupuncture points are still flowing like small streams, and a stream of hot energy slowly enters Qiao Xianyong's body. The original energy in his body travels to his arms and encounters the new energy entering the body from Xiansongjian.
When the Qi is flowing, the original Qi seems to be like a host entertaining guests, pulling the external Qi to continuously pour into Qiao Xianyong's body.
Although the original Qi in his body was not strong, Qiao Xianyong clearly felt that the heat and speed of the external Qi driven by the original Qi seemed to be very different from the last time he absorbed the Xuanshi Qi. It was like a
The cycle is normal. Once it is started, it continues continuously and does not stop. He does not know how long it has been running. He feels that the true energy coming from the Xiansong Sword is getting weaker and weaker. The color of the sword body has gradually become dark, and the true energy in the body has finally disappeared.
It gathers in the heart and then quietly dissipates throughout the body along the meridians.
Qiao Xianyong was sweating profusely. He suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at the chiming clock. He saw that half an hour had passed since the hour on the clock. Qiao Xianyong recalled carefully, and it seemed that the time it took was longer than the last time.
, the last time this mysterious stone appeared or moved for only a moment.
Qiao Xianyong was stroking the Xiansong Sword while thinking, could it be that the stronger the Qi in the body, the stronger the Xuanshi Zhenqi that can be brought in? In addition, the stronger the Qi, the longer it takes. These two
It was difficult to come up with an answer to the question right away. Qiao Xianyong suddenly thought of an important question: Why could the spirit of the mysterious stone work again tonight?
He clearly remembered that the last time the spirit of the black stone was running, it was the birthday of Empress Nuwa on September 15th. So what day is today?
