Chapter Thirty-Two: Swords are only held by those who should hold them
"Hey, this room is so stuffy. It would be nice if I could open the window for some fresh air." Lingyu sighed, reaching out to take advantage of the falling moonlight and watching it pass through her palms.
She has been thinking about a question recently.
Do events create people, or do people create events?
This incident was originally supposed to happen here, and it landed on this person. The incident is a given and cannot be changed.
It was because of this person that this incident occurred, and the development of things changed at any time because of this person's decision.
There was a rustling sound outside, and the room suddenly became brighter. Lingyu looked along the light and saw that the originally closed window was wide open, and a young man with a red face stood at the window.
The young man, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, looked very standard. When he saw her looking over, he turned his head away in embarrassment.
"I also feel it's a little boring outside." His excuse seemed a little too lame, and he knew it, and he was about to run away after saying it.
"You, just tell me what you need, I'll be guarding you at the door."
Lingyu rushed forward and grabbed the person who was about to leave in a hurry. The young man looked like a big girl. He didn't dare to turn his face when Lingyu grabbed him. He kept his head lowered and his ears turned red.
"Don't go, there's no one else here, and I won't live long anyway, why don't we chat together?" Lingyu looked at him with a smile.
She really didn't expect this person to be so easy to deceive.
"No wonder dad said before that women are like tigers descending from the mountains, they can eat people with just opening their mouths." Suddenly, a man in his mid-twenties appeared at the door of the window, looking at her in amazement.
Lingyu thought that this must be the older-sounding man whom she had known more about just now.
"Oh? Did your eye see me eating people?" Lingyu let go of her hand and lazily leaned against the window frame and looked at the two of them.
The moonlight was rising, and when the window was opened, Lingyu, who had lost his spiritual power, did not notice that there were two people standing on the thick Chinese chrysanthemum tree in the courtyard, looking at everything coldly.
When the young man raised his face, he was already as red as a crayfish. Lingyu even wondered if she had done something to him. How could a person blush so exaggeratedly!
He must be a little too careless!
"I saw it with both eyes." The older one pointed at his eyes with two fingers, as if he could look at her with a bright look.
"Don't open your eyes and talk nonsense. Even if I eat people, I won't eat you like this. By the way, I still don't know your names after chatting for so long?"
"My name is Goudan, and this is my brother. His name is Xiao Fuzi. What about you?" Goudan hugged the shoulders of the person next to him and smiled brightly.
After hearing this name, Lingyu called him an expert, which was more casual than her name.
"Lingyu." Lingyu thought for a while, but she didn't tell her her name in this world yet. They were the only people who knew her real name.
"Well, why does this name feel weirder than mine?"
"Hi, what's your name? It's just a code name. Just make sure you call it smoothly. By the way, brothers, can you give me something to eat? I haven't eaten in two days and I'm about to starve to death!" Lingyu said.
He touched his belly pitifully, feeling that his body leaning against the window edge would fall down at any moment.
Xiao Fuzi hurriedly supported him behind him, as if he was taking it seriously.
Lingyu was really worried about their intelligence. If she had known they were so easy to deceive, she wouldn't have spent so much time talking to them from day to night.
"this……"
The older man was still a little bit naughty. Seeing that Xiao Fuzi was about to get it for him, he hesitated. Just when Lingyu wanted to continue his efforts, Xiao Fuzi spoke.
"Brother, I'm watching from here. Go to the kitchen and order something to eat. I believe you don't want a woman who is starving to death."
Seeing that his brother was begging like this, Goudan immediately softened his heart: "Okay, then I'll go and come back. You have to keep an eye on her. If she runs away, both of us will be dead."
Xiao Fuzi nodded and pushed Goudan out.
As soon as the person over there left, there was the sound of unlocking the door. He stood at the door and waved to Lingyu, with the red glow on his face that had not faded away just now.
"Hurry up, you won't be able to leave when my brother comes back."
Lingyu stood at the door and didn't know whether to go or not, but her body had already been pulled out of the door. Xiao Fuzi looked around and saw no one around to pull her out of the inner courtyard door.
"Your companion is at the east gate. Go straight east along this road. The first gate is there. I can't go too far with you. You must be careful." The man kept telling her in her ear.
"I'm leaving, what will you do?" She echoed Goudan's words before leaving.
Xiao Fuzi smiled shyly: "It doesn't matter, I have a solution, you don't have to worry about me, just go."
"This is the peace knot my sister left for me. It will definitely keep you safe and smooth." Before leaving, he took off the red peace knot from his waist and gave it to her.
Lingyu knew that now was not a good time for the two of them to push each other, but in the end, they ended up peacefully. She secretly swore that she would come back to save him, so she turned around and walked in the direction he pointed.
No one noticed that the shadow on the tree slowly appeared: "Master..." Xuanyin looked at the man in front of him with an increasingly cold expression, staring at the two men on the ground, as if he wanted to eat people, and couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Think about whether you did something wrong.
"Kill them." After saying this, Xuanyin disappeared without waiting for a reply.
Xuanyin looked pitifully at the man who had returned from the courtyard and was looking for his brother.
There is no way, who told them to make their master unhappy...
Xuanyin's figure flashed into the courtyard and kicked the person to the ground. Orchid flames flashed in his hand. Just as he was about to take action, he bumped into the person returning.
"In that case, let's do it together."
Xiao Fuzi also returned along the original path, but not long after he reached the door, he saw his brother being pinned to the ground, and the person standing next to him made him instantly pale.
Xuanyin smiled and was about to take action when there was a burst of noisy footsteps not far away. He had to hide his figure first. In order to prevent these two frightened people from opening their mouths, he gave them a trick in the dark.
A silencing curse.
Lingyu held the peace knot tightly in her hand, quietly climbed over the courtyard wall, and hid behind a grapevine. Just as she was about to investigate what was going on inside, she met a pair of ghostly eyes.
On the eaves, a tall man in white clothes was standing, looking at everything quietly. A black figure silently appeared in front of him and sighed: "Master is here to chase this woman. What did I say?
Run so fast."
After saying that, under the silent gaze of the man, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words: "Don't worry, Lord, I have made arrangements and everything is according to plan."
The man didn't speak, but his eyes kept falling on the petite woman behind the grapevine.
Facing her was a handsome man in shaman clothing. His face was painted with black and white patterns. The clothes and headdress on his body were like a peacock's tail, showing his status, but he wore a
A sword she was very familiar with.
Star Sword.
"Is it fun?"
Lingyu laughed dryly: "Hehehe, no, it's not fun..." Why didn't she see such a flamboyant person when she climbed over the wall? There was obviously no one in the yard!
The courtyard door was knocked open, and a group of burly men holding torches walked in one after another, instantly illuminating the entire courtyard as if it were daytime.
"Why are you still standing there?" He glanced back, and suddenly the men behind him filed out. The two people in the front set up Lingyu, one on the left and the other on the right. Lingyu saw two people behind the crowd.
The person who is being pressed.
It was the two brothers who had taken custody of her just now.
For a time, many emotions surged through my heart.
She thought that they were all of the same clan, and she had not gone far. They should not be guilty of much, and they would be locked up for a few days at most.
If he opened his mouth to speak for them, he would have done what they had done to help him. Lingyu thought over and over again and chose to remain silent and walked past them.
When leaving, Lingyu was pushed by someone, and the peace knot on his sleeve fell to the ground, but Lingyu didn't see it.
When the young man saw the peace knot, his eyes darkened for a moment, but he still picked it up tremblingly.
See, you have failed, and she is not even willing to ask for your things anymore.
Wu Zhu looked at the people on the ground coldly, and suddenly a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "Kill them."
Wu Zhu's body stiffened for a moment, and he looked at the two people who were pinned to the ground, helplessness flashing in his eyes.
"When someone comes, the Yang brothers see someone unfavorable and will immediately ask and behead him."
Everyone hesitated when they heard this: "Sir, we are looking for this person... The Yang brothers didn't come here on purpose..."
The next words could not be continued under the man's cold eyes.
Lingyu's footsteps stopped in place, no matter how much people around her pushed and dragged her, she didn't move an inch. Her feet seemed to have taken root on the ground.
Xiao Fuzi looked at the man who was slashing at them with a knife in disbelief, his face turned pale.
Just when the knife was about to fall on their necks, a sword shot out of the air and knocked away the person holding the knife. Lingyu took out the talisman he had accumulated for a long time from the Qiankun bag, and slowly turned around to look at the person behind him.
people.
"Are you so indiscriminate?" This was the first time that she had so little regard for the safety of the Yuehua Sword.
The Yuehua Sword returned to her hand. This time, she held the sword to protect the person she wanted to protect.
The moment the Yuehua Sword was unsheathed, the man in the dark's face became darker and darker.
She actually ignored his safety for the sake of two people who met by chance.
Good, really good.
The man slowly raised his lips, but there was no smile at all in his eyes, which made the people next to him shiver unconsciously.
"He is actually a monk. Lord Dragon God will definitely like it. Why are you still standing there in a daze?" Wu Zhu shouted, and the group of people immediately reacted and attacked her with swords.
The people on the ground shook their heads at her with tears in their eyes, but never spoke.
