Chapter 143, Apricot Blossom
It was still the Eighteenth Duke who stood up and said, "Supremn Immortal, Xingxian is young and ignorant, so please forgive her for offending."
"Why do you have any offense? It's just that I'm willing to join the disciples when I see her being generous and well-behaved..."
Then Shi Zi ignored him and stared at Xingxian and said, "And I am talking to Xingxian and don't need to ask anyone else's opinions. But I don't force you, it's just up to you or not?"
Xingxian felt extremely stressed, especially here, with several friends around him. No one knew what his temper was, but he probably looked quite tough.
I said I didn't force it, but when I said this, the meaning of the threat was already very obvious.
If he disobeys him and angers him, who knows what he will do?
With this aura and this pressure, it is already unbearable for several people.
The originally arrogant Eighteen Duke couldn't help but tremble, and was as straight as Ling Yunzi and couldn't help but hunch over. The four old men seemed to have really become old men, and the two maids in blue were even more scared to the ground.
At this time, the few people couldn't help but complain about the land. Although reason knew that it could not blame him, if he had to talk too much, how could he provoke such a domineering immortal coming over?
But now is not the time to hold people accountable, and a choice must be made.
The four old men all looked at Xingxian, but Xingxian only lowered her head and remained silent.
This made Shi Zi feel a little strange. Could it be that his charm is really inferior to Tang Monk? Not to mention that scorpion spirit, the Xingxian is like this again. The female monster who took the initiative to seduce Tang Monk will not even be able to threaten her when she comes to her?
However, he quickly realized that women's hearts, or human hearts, are like this. If you talk to others well, maybe it's not the case, but you directly use power to suppress people and use powerful means to force them, it will naturally cause rebellious psychology.
Even if Xingxian has a good impression of him, he will inevitably feel dignity and humiliation.
However, the form is better than that of the humans, and in the end she nodded. The four old men all breathed a sigh of relief, and then they couldn't help feeling ashamed.
Before, they thought about whether they could take the opportunity to find some opportunities from Shi Zi, but now they are lucky enough to escape.
I was too sluggish about such immortals before and thought I could control them. I didn’t know that in other people’s eyes, I was just an ant that could be killed with one foot at any time.
"It is rare for the immortal to come back and have a drink. Why not sit down and drink a drink? Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are clear. It is a good time to drink wine to the moon and recite poems to make fun of it." The Eighteenth Duke stood up again at this time and said these words with a smile. To make the atmosphere more harmonious, it can be considered to be a way for Xingxian.
After all, her attitude is inevitably displeased. Although it was forced by the other party, since she had a choice, it would be better to obey him.
Moreover, he was confident that he could read the poems and songs of several people at will. If he could say a few more words to Shi Zi, based on their experience, the immortals would probably be able to make him happy. Even if he couldn't get any benefits from him, he would still be able to look at Xingxian with a different look.
Xingxian knew his intentions and was about to say something, but he heard the immortal laugh and said, "I came here just for Xingxian. Since I got Xingxian, there was nothing wrong, so I won't stay here for long."
The Eighteenth Duke said with difficulty: "This is a starry night, the road is unclear, why are you going so urgently?"
Although this does not affect the immortals, there is no reason to hurry on the road.
And it also made them wonder again. Why is this immortal priest so anxious to leave?
Once he had doubts in his heart, he could not help but doubt Shi Zi's origin and purpose. After all, he came too urgently and too coincidental, and he had never revealed his identity, but he pointed directly at Xingxian as soon as he came. Could it be that the immortal is just like this?
Shi Zi thought for a while and said, "Well, I will stay overnight. But I don't have to drink wine. I am picky. If there is no fairy wine, don't take it out and show it shame."
The Eighteenth Duke and the Four Elders looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
It is said that this immortal is arrogant. He seems to have such strength and qualifications. They can't do anything except complain about it.
Moreover, no one stipulates that immortals must be peaceful and elegant, as if they are so direct and free, and they are the same way to become immortals.
But what they said is really unbearable. They all lived for hundreds of thousands of years, so don’t they feel embarrassed?
Still Xingxian came out to smooth things over and said, "Since the gentleman doesn't want to drink, Xingxian makes a pot of flower tea for the gentleman, can it be?"
She had already begun to accept her new identity. Although she suddenly turned from a free mountain monster to someone else's maid, she was connected with the relationship between an immortal and the future was bright.
Shi Zi glanced at her and nodded.
This made the four elders feel relieved. It seems that this immortal master is not that difficult to communicate with. Perhaps it is just because he doesn't see them or even is too lazy to talk to them, so he will stab every sentence.
Thinking of this, the four elders stopped talking and lost their interest in poetry.
Moreover, with Shi Zi here, Xingxian went down again, no one adjusted the atmosphere, and in the silence, they felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.
But I didn't dare to ask about leaving, so my face turned red and I felt particularly frustrated and uncomfortable.
That is, it was not very obvious at night. Of course, Shi Zi could see clearly, but he did it on purpose, so he never said anything.
Of course, he had to deliberately put pressure on these four elders, otherwise they would not know what they would be like.
To be honest, these four elders would later find Tang Monk's disciples and even plunder Tang Monk in front of Sun Wukong. Although it seemed that there was no malicious intention on the surface, the process only scared Tang Monk a little, and even gave Tang Monk a rare opportunity to expand his poetry talent, the methods were indeed unbearable.
Thinking about this, it is normal for Sun Wukong to be angry. After all, this is like being spoiled by someone. He is called the Monkey King. He is a vegetarian?
But they do not have to die of sin, and what they ask for is nothing more than immortality. They have neither coerced other ordinary people nor have they really suffered from any evil consequences. If they had not had the interaction with the seeker of the scriptures, they might have been able to continue to be free and easy.
At this time, Xingxian finally came back. The two maids in green clothes had just gone down with her but did not come again. I don’t know if they were sent away by her or if they dared not come again.
Xingxian was carrying a pot of tea, and put it in the distance, the fragrance of flowers came from afar. The closer they were, the more fragrant it became. Shi Zi couldn't help but smile and exclaim: "What a fragrant tea!"
This water naturally takes the water from the nearby Linghu Lake. As for the flowers, Shi Zi was a little suspicious that it was from Xingxian himself...
Xingxian came over and poured another cup for Shi Zi, handed it over and said, "Sir, please drink!"
Shi Zi took it and saw that the tea was clear and light, like clear water, with a few strands of petals like precipitation. It looked ordinary, but it was full of aftertaste.
"Is this tea soaked with apricot blossoms?"
Xingxian's face turned slightly blushed, and she nodded but did not explain much.
"This situation, this person and this tea make me think of some sentences." Shi Zi said, standing up, and the four elders and Xingxian couldn't help but look at him.
All of them are romantic people, and they are quite looking forward to what poems he can write.
Then he heard him chant:
“The stone beams are empty, and the thatched hut is near Qingjiong.
I looked down at the sweet and beautiful apricot, but I didn't realize that my body was better than the shadow.
Yan is like Concubine Jingyang, and she falls into the palace well with a smile.
I feel sad that there are microwaves, and the residual makeup is difficult to fix."
