Shi Lei and Dai Jin's footsteps stagnated and turned around.
"Thank you for your rescue, please accept Die'er's greetings!" Nalan Die walked by and wanted to salute Shi Lei and the other two.
"The girl is serious. We took action because Nanmen Guanyu was bullying her so much, so there is no need for the girl to be like this." Shi Lei gently lifted her up with his true energy.
"Even so, after all, the two young masters have vented their anger for us, so we are still very grateful. Moreover, Nanmen Guanyu once said that if someone defeats him, he will give me my freedom. Regardless of whether he can keep his words, I will
I should thank you two." Nalan Die insisted on saluting, facing the two of them, clasping the fingers of his hands, placing them on his left waist, bending his legs.
Shi Lei had no choice but to let her finish the ceremony, and the Ten Thousand Blessings ceremony was also appropriate.
"I don't know where you two are going now. From the accent, I don't think they are locals. I am Nalan Kang, the head of the Nalan family. Thank you both for your help. It's just... the machine door's strength is too terrifying, so you two should find a place."
Take shelter for a while." The old man came over and bowed his hands to the two of them.
"We came here to discuss business, but we unexpectedly encountered this incident, so we don't have a definite place to go now." Shi Lei turned around and said to the old man.
"In that case, please come with me." Nalan Kang and Shi Lei swayed and disappeared in front of everyone. Then twenty breaths later, they appeared in the courtyard of Nalan's house.
"Master Nalan, what are you doing?" Shi Lei couldn't figure out for a moment why he spun around in the air and then came back.
"In order to prevent others from knowing that you have come to my house, I think Nanmen Guanyu would not have thought that I would be so bold to hide you here, but the most dangerous place is the safest place." Nalankang explained.
Shi Lei and the other two understood clearly, and followed Nalankang's left and right turns to a remote and quiet backyard.
"There are two attics here. You can stay in this one temporarily. Opposite is the place where the young daughter and the personal maid live. Most people don't know about it. Moreover, there is a very high concealment restriction here, so the martial arts kings in Guanzhou can
, it is absolutely impossible to find it." Nalankang said.
"This...is a little bad. I think we should go somewhere else." Shi Lei declined, staying with a few girls for fear of any inconvenience.
"You two don't have to worry, just rest here. Once the storm has passed, it won't be too late for you to leave." Nalankang smiled slightly.
"Then I'll trouble the head of the family." Shi Lei stopped insisting and walked into the room. He found that the decoration inside was elegant and there was a bookshelf full of books. At a glance, he knew that this Nalan family was also a scholarly family.
No wonder the Nalan family has not developed much power after hundreds of years. As a scholar, I should be very repulsive to fighting and killing, so it is reasonable not to expand externally.
"It's fine, you two. If you have anything to do, you can ask the maid downstairs. I'll go take care of some things first." After Nalankang said that, he left.
Shi Lei casually picked up a book of poems and opened it to read a few times. Although he had been slightly interested in poems since he was a child, he was usually busy practicing, so he never had time to read some poems, which was a small regret.
These famous poets often have unique perceptions of life and emotions. Everyone has different understandings and different levels, but these poems contain their lifelong feelings.
By reading poems, you can experience some of the people's perceptions of life, which can inspire you to reflect on yourself and help improve your soul.
Although some great Confucian scholars are not high in martial arts, their souls have been sublimated and purified by reading poetry and books, so their momentum can rival some strong martial arts masters.
"The leaves of the wood are returning one after another, and the waning moon and dawn wind are nowhere to be seen. The news is half lost, and I miss a little bit of lovesickness tonight. Autumn rain, autumn rain, half of it is blown away by the west wind." Shi Lei opened a page and read softly, as if thinking.
Da Jin scratched his scalp, and seeing how absorbed Shi Lei was in reading, he picked up a book and flipped through it randomly. Feeling uninterested, he put the book back and went to bed to meditate.
Shi Lei slowly immersed himself in the beautiful poems, sitting at the table, looking up for a while, sighing for a while, frowning for a while, then pondering for a while, and then he suddenly realized it.
"Dangdang!" Someone knocked on the door. Shi Lei glanced at it with his spiritual consciousness, then smiled slightly and opened the door. Dajin also opened his eyes and walked out of bed.
"Miss Die'er, please come in."
"Young Master also likes to read poetry." Nalandie, who was wearing a veil, asked with a smile when she saw the books open on the table.
"I'm just slightly interested, what's the matter with Miss Die'er?"
"The people from the machine door came just now, looking for you two. Then Dad told them that you were heading north, and they have already gone after you. Dad said that it should be safe to wait for the two young masters to wait for a few days before leaving.
There are more." Die said softly.
"Have you bothered, Mr. Launalan? Didn't they enter your home and search it?" Shi Lei asked.
"Two strong men at the Martial King level searched this place several times with their spiritual senses, but they would not find this place, so they left." Nalan Die smiled slightly, "But he didn't mention returning my freedom, either.
No mention of the engagement in five days."
"Oh, it seems that he has gone crazy. However, looking at Nanmen Guanyu's character, it is unlikely that he will be able to abide by what he said, and he has not made a blood oath, so I think you should prepare for the worst."
Shi Lei thought for a while and said.
"Well, I still don't know their names?"
"My name is Si Shi, just me Shi Shi, just call him Da Jin." Shi Lei thought about it and decided to give him another name. Although he was not afraid of anything, it would be bad if he accidentally implicated his family.
.
"I will call you Brother Shitou and Brother Dajin. You look not much older than me, but your strength is too great. Dad told me that you are all at the level of Martial King. I am still a Martial King in my twenties.
This is the first time I've seen her." Nalandie said, but no expression on her face could be seen under the veil.
Shi Lei rubbed his nose and did not answer, but wanted to use his spiritual consciousness to look at her face. According to his current strength, it was not a big problem, but he still controlled it.
"Die'er, I won't disturb you two brothers. If you don't understand anything about poetry these days, you can ask me. Although my kung fu is very poor, I have been able to read poetry since I was a child." Nalan Die said to the two.
The man bowed briefly and then left.
"This eldest lady's character seems not as boring as expected." Shi Lei sat down at the table again and started reading a book.
Unknowingly, it was already getting late, but a bright moon hung in the sky, and its light shone quietly on the earth, making people's minds that had been impetuous all day slowly calm down and get rid of distracting thoughts.
There was a faint sound of the piano coming from the opposite side, and a woman played the piano and sang softly:
The world of mortals is ridiculous, infatuation is the most boring, arrogant and arrogant. In this life, my heart is unfinished, but I have nothing to worry about. I just want to exchange for a half-life of freedom. When I wake up, I smile at people. In my dreams, I forget everything. I sigh that it gets dark too early. The next life is unpredictable. Love and hate can be written off in one stroke. Let’s drink and sing to me.
I just want to be happy, no matter how cold the wind is, I don’t want to run away, no matter how beautiful the flowers are, I don’t want to let me drift, the higher the sky is, the smaller my heart is, regardless of cause and effect, I’m drunk alone, cry today, laugh tomorrow, don’t ask for someone to understand my pride, singing and dancing, dancing
The long night is long and dawn will be looking for happiness...
"A young woman can sing such a touching song, as if she has been hurt. Although she laughs at the mortal world, it contains so much helplessness towards the mortal world." Shi Lei sighed softly, love is really disappointing.
People are happy and people are worried. It is not easy to see through the world of mortals.
"Brother Shitou is also interested in music?" Nalan Die smiled at Shi Lei from the opposite side.
"I'm just wondering what I thought after hearing this. Miss Nalandie seems to be a little tired of the world of mortals, but it's really not like what you should be at your age." Shi Lei stood in front of the window, although his voice was not loud.
, but it reached Nalandie’s ears clearly.
"I've read a lot of poetry and have some feelings about some things, which made Brother Shitou laugh." Nalandie's bell-like laughter came.
"Poetry can indeed increase people's experience and understanding of things, but there are some things that you have not experienced before. Even if you think your appreciation is correct, there is still a big difference, what do you think?"
"Well, actually I am indeed very curious about some things, but from some words and sentences I found that they seem to be more concerned and worried about love, so I am a little afraid of the so-called love." Nalan Die said in a low voice.
.
"In fact, even caring about it is sweet in my heart. Love is the most wonderful thing in the world. You don't know when it will come, and you don't know when it will disappear. But only when you experience it can you truly understand it.
The true meaning of it. So, just let nature take its course."
In fact, Shi Lei knows that talented women who can write these sad poems are lucky. At least they have someone they can care about in their hearts. In Xingyue Continent, most of the marriages of men and women are arranged by their parents. Only those who can find true love can
There are not many people.
Of course, some people may have never heard the word love in their lives, and have never deliberately pursued it, but they may have spent their lives loving each other. These people may be the best interpreters of love.
Nalandie nodded, thinking a little.
…
Shi Lei and his two men stayed at Nalan Family for seven or eight days. Sometimes they discussed poetry with Nalan Die. It would be a good idea to pass the time.
Nanmen Guanyu almost searched the entire Guanzhou during this period of time, but still did not find any clues. Moreover, he did not come to trouble Nalan Die, which was a bit abnormal.
"I don't know what this Nanmen Guanyu wants to do, but based on his past behavior, he doesn't seem to be a trustworthy person." Nalankang was a little puzzled.
"Just be careful. We have been here for a long time and it's time to leave. I'm sorry to bother you these days." Shi Lei bowed his hands to Nalankang and planned to leave.
"Brother Shitou, are you really leaving?" Nalandie was a little reluctant to leave.
Shi Lei nodded. He just had a good impression of Nalan Die and had no other intentions.
"People say that I am the most beautiful woman in Guanzhou, but since I was entangled by Nanmen Guanyu, I have been wearing a veil. Brother Shitou, do you want to see what Die'er looks like?" Nalandie lowered her head and whispered.
Said.
Shi Lei nodded, but stopped Die'er from taking off the veil.
"I want to see it, but it's better to leave some mystery, what do you think?" Shi Lei smiled slightly, took his hand away from the veil, and disappeared with Da Jin.
"Brother Shitou, you will come back, right?" Nalandie murmured.
