Tanyou only found out about the identities of Bo Lan and Ye Lingfei at night.
"This, this is so incredible, you didn't realize it?"
Hua Ling said dullly: "I called him Master several times..."
Ming Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter, which earned Hua Ling an angry eye roll.
"I don't think they are bad people, hey, but, I'm still very curious about the person named Ye Lingfei. I really don't know what method Bo Lan used..."
Hua Ling said angrily: "My abilities are so great, what's so strange about me? Unlike you, I don't know anything but am curious all day long."
Ming Feng unceremoniously smashed the walnut he was playing with. Hua Ling didn't dodge, and angrily stretched out her claws to hit him.
"So you are all here."
The people making the fuss were stunned. It seemed that Bo Lan had found the person himself?
Bo Lan smiled with a kind and kind face, just like an ordinary old man with a cane.
Hua Ling looked unkind, but Ming Feng smiled brightly - he always had a strong ability to change his face in front of outsiders, like a pedestrian in flowing water and a fox in disguise.
"Senior, you are really unkind. You have deceived us juniors."
Bo Lan laughed and said, "I'm really sorry. I didn't intend to deceive. I hope you can forgive me."
Hua Ling snorted and rolled her eyes: "If you lie, you'll lie. It's just pretentious talk."
Ming Feng: "Flower Spirit."
Hua Ling said: "Then tell me, why did you lie to us?"
Bo Lan shrugged and said helplessly: "I didn't cheat in the first place, I just didn't say it clearly."
Hua Ling: "..."
Bo Lan's tone was too innocent: "Besides, didn't you tell me your true identity?"
Hua Ling was speechless for a long time: "...but you know."
This person must have known their true identities for a long time. With such a high level of moral conduct, how could he not tell if they had any hidden agenda?
Bo Lan replied: "But that's what I saw myself, not what you took the initiative to say."
Ming Feng has already seen that Hua Ling is no match for this old demon - no, Huahua, who was still angry just now, fell into deep self-reflection.
Bo Lan still smiled innocently: "In short, I sincerely apologize."
His tone was like coaxing an unreasonable child.
Hua Ling couldn't defeat him and knew that she was no match for him, so she bypassed the issue of deceiving or not and asked directly: "Why do you want to get close to Ren Yun? What are your intentions, and what happened to Ye Lingfei?"
What happened? Who do you belong to? Do you know Divination? Did you do anything when you showed up? Who on earth are you!"
Bo Lan whispered softly: "So many questions, let me think about it, which one should I answer first?"
Hua Ling: "Who are you?"
"As for me, I'm just an old tree spirit."
Hua Ling actually doesn't care who he is, as long as he's not a human being. She just thinks that the first question should usually be asked, old tree spirit? Who cares about pine trees, poplar trees, and cypress trees...
"Why are you approaching Ren Yun?"
There is also the previous life, this is what Hua Ling cares about most.
Bo Lan said lightly: "Protect him."
"I believe you, you idiot!" Hua Ling jumped up and shouted.
Bo Lan: "..."
This sentence has no credibility with Hua Ling. In her eyes, Bo Lan is trying to prevaricate her.
"I really came here to protect him, at least I won't harm him."
Hua Ling obviously didn't believe it and continued to pester. Tanyou immediately asked: "What about you and Bu Yin? What is your relationship?"
Bo Lan said lightly: "It doesn't matter, but I really don't like him."
Tanyou agreed. With someone like Bu Yin, knowing what kind of character he really is, it would be strange to find him pleasing to the eye.
Later, in the next half hour, they figured out Bo Lan's identity and the reason why he wanted to protect Ren Yun from Bo Lan's mouth.
"Hundreds of years ago, something went wrong in my practice. I almost went crazy. I also suffered some serious injuries and had to change back to my original shape and slowly recovered. Unfortunately, there was no one in that world. Maybe it was because of my bad luck.
, a few people happened to pass by here, and a few stupid young men saw my real body, and they thought of cutting me up and selling me for money. Fortunately, a young man rescued me, stopped them, and even poured water on me.
After a few years, I recovered my original self and wanted to repay him, but he didn't believe that I was the red sandalwood tree, even though the tree was gone. In other words, no matter then or now,
This guy has never believed in the existence of monsters."
Well, yes, Hua Ling understands this very well. No matter which life he lives in, he has never believed in the existence of demons. When you say this, people will only think you are joking and never take it seriously.
"He didn't believe it. He didn't believe it no matter what I said. I asked him, I owe you a favor, which must be repaid. You can ask for anything you want. I still remember the way he looked at me..."
It was like looking at a fool with a look of pity. He didn't need to say anything, Hua Ling understood.
"Then he joked and said, since you are a demon, you should live a long life, so just protect my descendants for the rest of your life."
Hua Ling imagined the scene. According to Hua Ling's understanding of it, his husband in that life must have said this in a coaxing tone.
"What happened next?"
"Although this is a joke, I agreed," Bo Lan said in a depressed tone, "But this kid is probably not good enough. He will have no descendants until he dies."
Hua Ling: "..."
"So I thought, I'll protect his reincarnation. All in all, I accept his love."
Ming Feng: "Senior, can you find it every time?"
"That's not true. There will always be times when things don't work for you. Just let it go. In fact, he doesn't need my help for anything. This guy has a good destiny. He joins either a wealthy family or a noble family. He enjoys being popular and drinking spicy food. He is very happy.
"
Somehow, this sounds a bit sour?
Hua Ling suddenly asked: "Before these three lives, was he always safe and smooth?"
"Mostly."
"What about Divination? Have you met him before?"
Bo Lan thought for a while: "I met him twice, but I never faced him head-on. This guy likes to cause trouble every day or two."
Hua Ling was silent.
Gardenia: "What about Ye Lingfei?"
Bo Lan smiled gently: "This is my private matter, but don't worry, it has nothing to do with you, nor does it have anything to do with Ren Yun."
When Bo Lan said this, they stopped asking.
Fei Xun: "Thank you, senior, for helping us clear up our doubts."
Bo Lan smiled: "Hey, where is it? It should be."
Several people exchanged words with each other. Among them, Hua Ling kept silent with her eyes lowered.
Bo Lan: "Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved and you all know that I have no ill intentions, that's good. I have something else to do, so I'll take the first step."
"Senior, walk slowly."
Gardenia: "Fortunately, he is not an enemy. Otherwise, just the few of us would have to guard against Bo Lan and deal with Bu Yin. This would be a dream."
Hua Ling got up and said she wanted to go find Ren Yun.
Gardenia looked at her leaving figure, her eyes filled with worry.
Tanyou sighed and said, "Let her stay alone for a while."
After so many things happened, Hua Ling was able to guess that part of the reason why Bu Yin treated him like this was because of her. Although Hua Ling didn't know the specific reason, Hua Ling thought about it and could guess it.
That's right.
However, Bo Lan's words seemed to give Hua Ling a heavy blow.
——What if Hua Ling was not part of the reason why Bu Yin was so cruel to him, but the whole reason?
Before he met her, every life he lived was safe and smooth. However, after meeting her, he couldn't live past forty for two consecutive lives. Each time, it was to protect her, and each time, there was a divination.
.
But why, why exactly, Hua Ling thought repeatedly in her heart and kept asking, but there was no answer. She didn't know why Bu Yin was treating her, but when he looked at her, he never felt any hatred.
appearance.
So what should she do now?
"Hey, that girl named Hua Ling, do you like her?"
Ren Yun and Ye Lingfei were sitting on the eaves with a jar of wine each. Ren Yun laughed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? She is a friend of some cheap chefs of mine. I have only known her for a few days."
"Oh, that means that Master Ren doesn't have any feelings for her?"
Ren Yun touched his nose and said loudly: "Am I such a superficial person? I fell in love with him in just a few days? How funny!"
Ye Lingfei looked at him, as if saying, "Aren't you?"
Ren Yun felt a little guilty and took a sip of wine to cover up.
"Hey, let me tell you, you really don't like her?"
"Taifu Ren is not such a superficial person."
"That's great," Ye Lingfei said. "It just so happens that I like her. Since you don't like her, I'll pursue her boldly."
Ren Yun: "...Holy shit?"
Ye Lingfei: "Hey, to be honest, I am such a superficial person."
Ren Yun drank in silence for a while, and then he said quietly: "I suddenly thought about it and found that I still like that girl quite a lot. You should give up this idea."
Ye Lingfei said in disbelief: "What? How could it be possible? You have only known her for a few days, how come you fell in love with her? You are not such a superficial person!"
Ren Yun said very shamelessly: "I have often dreamed of someone a long time ago, and that person is probably her."
Ye Lingfei almost died from his words.
It's strange. He once thought that he would never have anything to do with this person again in his life, let alone drink and chat with him.
They were not friends, but they didn't expect that in that life, they had never seen each other again since he held the banquet. However, after a hundred years, he and Li Chengyu's reincarnations could actually joke with each other and chat over wine.
Ye Lingfei found it funny and couldn't help but think that although he became like this today, strictly speaking, he had nothing to do with this person.
