Sitting here until half past noon, she guessed that He Zhan should be back, so she called out to Huo Qizhi if she wanted to go back with her.
Huo Qizhi naturally nodded and followed. It was already lunch time. If he didn't rush to the canteen, he would have to wait until evening.
"Your yard is not full, why don't you renovate it privately and make a kitchen." In this way, you don't have to travel far to eat, and you won't run into people who may affect your mood.
Huo Qizhi disagreed with her idea. They even had too little time to practice, so how could they waste it on such mundane things.
"Private renovation of public property of the sect is prohibited."
It turned out that it wasn't allowed. She had changed a lot of things inside and outside Luo Huafeng's courtyard, but I didn't see Senior Brother Luo Dong say anything.
This is probably the difference between the outer sect and the true disciples. The entire peak belongs to Shang Xun. As long as he doesn't say anything, she can change it however she wants.
When I returned to Huo Qizhi's courtyard, the door was ajar and there were people talking inside.
It must be He Zhan who is back.
However, there is another person living in this courtyard next to her. Who is the person talking to him?
There was no trace of surprise on Huo Qizhi's face, it was obviously a common occurrence.
She walked in the door in two steps and shouted towards He Zhan's room.
"Azhan."
Hearing the sound, two people came out quickly, one was He Zhan.
The other one is, Yang Qi?
"Uncle Tong! It's been so long since you've been back, I finally get to meet you." Yang Qi saw her and trotted over with a grin on his face happily.
He Zhan, who was forgotten by him, glared at him secretly. Sister Yan obviously came to see him, but he actually grabbed it from him.
Feeling a little dissatisfied, I quickly stepped forward and took Tong Yan's hand.
"Sister Yan, you finally came to see me. I thought you had forgotten me."
Tong Yan smiled at Yang Qi, but was interrupted by He Zhan before he could speak, so he explained to him the reason why he didn't come before.
"I was busy practicing before and didn't have any time. Master finally gave me a day off today. I came over as soon as I had time."
On the way back to the sect, it was common for her to hold He Zhan's hand or half-hug him in order to make it easier for her to guide him with her sword.
So He Zhan pulled her, and she subconsciously followed.
He Zhan understood the reason why she couldn't come, and said very thoughtfully, "I know Sister Yan's cultivation is very hard. It's great that you can come to see me. I just haven't seen you for a long time and miss you very much."
After he finished, he smiled at her, his blue eyes were extremely clear in the sunlight, and his eyebrows were curved, like a ragdoll cat that was coquettishly treating its owner.
She couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you have anything to do this afternoon? If not, I will take you for a walk in the city."
"good!"
"Uncle Tong, when we came back just now, we saw Uncle Tang. He seemed to be looking for you." Yang Qi saw that they were talking about the same thing and quickly interjected.
Tang Wuchuan?
"Why is he looking for me, looking for a fight with me?" Tong Yan said nonchalantly.
Yang Qi: "I heard that Uncle Tang has greatly increased his strength after returning from training this time. I don't necessarily want to fight with you."
"That's the best." Fighting with the master is asking for abuse, while fighting with Tang Wuchuan is mostly abusing others, so Tong Yan is naturally very happy.
Yang Qi couldn't quite understand that Tang Wuchuan came to fight with her as his cultivation level increased. He obviously wanted to teach her a lesson, and she looked eager to try.
Could it be that her cultivation level has also increased a lot, so she feels confident?
I have been busy practicing recently, and it is normal to have a master to teach me and improve my cultivation.
It's just that this master is...
I heard that the young sect master has left seclusion and is preparing to accept disciples at the Nascent Soul Ceremony in three months...
Yang Qi felt that he was right to make a good deal with Tong Yan early in the morning. He would definitely have a thick thigh!
Thinking of this, Yang Qi suppressed the excitement in his heart and said attentively, "Uncle Tong, you are going to the city. Let me take you with me. I am familiar with the streets and alleys in the city. Take me with you and you will definitely follow.
It’s like bringing a living map.”
Thinking that Yang Qi was born and raised in Yatai City, he must know better than himself where to have fun and what to eat, Tong Yan nodded happily.
She was about to ask Huo Qizhi if he was going, but when she turned around, she found that someone had already entered her room.
She pulled down He Zhan's hand and walked outside the door to look for Huo Qizhi, "Huo Qizhi."
When no one answered, she shouted again: "Brother Huo, Brother Huo, Senior Brother Huo...junior brother, nephew, eldest brother, big brother??"
Huo Qizhi's cold voice sounded in the room, "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't yell about anything."
She just screamed for fun, and I wanted to try out how to make it sound nice without being too weird.
Starting from Senior Brother Huo, the voice has become quieter. If you don't pay attention, you can't hear it.
Who knows that the people inside still heard a little bit.
She smiled coquettishly and said, "We are going to Yatai City, will you go with us?"
"Not going."
"You really don't want to go?"
No one responded, it seemed they really didn’t want to go.
"Then we'll meet you when we come back after shopping."
Tong Yan stepped back to greet the two of them and asked them how they knew each other.
"I was originally looking for you, Uncle Tong, but I haven't been able to see you. I heard from Huo...junior brother that you brought A Zhan back, so I took him away to familiarize himself with the sect."
The conversation between several people became quieter and quieter, and soon the yard became quiet again.
Already gone.
Huo Qizhi inside the room faced the closed door, his eyes hidden in the shadows, unable to see his emotions clearly.
In order not to waste any more time, Tong Yan took the two of them to eat in the city.
After the meal, they started shopping casually. He Zhan and the others had nothing to buy, but she bought a lot for herself.
Most of them are a variety of snacks, or to replenish the inventory of ingredients.
When passing by Tingxin Building, I stopped by and asked the boss how the person she was looking for was doing.
Still no results.
She was a little discouraged, but she also knew that the world of cultivation was so big that it was really not easy to find someone.
When it got dark, the three of them returned to the sect.
At this moment, a fire was burning in the small shed, and several people were sitting around roasting something.
This dinner party was Tong Yan's last minute idea, and there was no suitable place, so she could only convince Huo Qizhi to allow her to have it here.
There were five people in total, namely Yang Qi, Huo Qizhi, He Zhan and her.
There is another person who is hard to think of, Tang Wuchuan.
Why is he there?
The main reason was that he came by chance, as they were preparing to come here with their things.
As soon as he went out, he saw Tang Wuchuan guarding the door.
He didn't come to her to fight, but to give her her contact information so that she could make an appointment at any time.
The original words probably meant that he came back victorious from an experience and came to show off to her, but found that he had no contact information.
So this time I specially gave her the sound transmission crane so that when I have to duel with her in the future, I can be notified in time?
This reason is really fresh and refined, simple and unpretentious.
She smiled and said something completely irrelevant.
"Let's have barbecue together."
Anyway, she didn't hate this person in the first place. At most, she thought he was too arrogant and a bit annoying at times.
Surprisingly, Tang Wuchuan agreed without much thought.
We usually don't know each other well, so we felt a little nervous when we suddenly sat together.
But as the food was cooked and we drank some wine, the atmosphere naturally settled.
The wine was provided by Yang Qi, and it wasn't particularly spicy. Tong Yan didn't like the taste of the wine very much, so he stopped drinking after tasting it a little.
He Zhan had never touched wine before, and it got on his face after he touched it a little. Tong Yan forbade him to drink any more.
The ones who drank the most were Yang Qi and Tang Wuchuan. Yang Qi was a drunkard and never got drunk no matter how much he drank.
Tang Wuchuan's cheeks were red and his eyes were so blurry that he couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and south. He probably didn't know how to drink.
"You don't know how to drink, but you still drink so much. Could it be that Zhenjun Yanjue is usually very strict and doesn't allow you to drink."
This is indeed what Tong Yan said. Lord Yan Jue Zhen is famous for his old-fashioned and conservative nature, and he has extremely high standards of conduct for his disciples.
In Lingjiu Peak, no drinking or gambling is allowed.
No gatherings to fight or making loud noises are allowed.
Do not be disheveled or behave in a bad manner.
These rules have been set down, and over time, the brothers and sisters at Lingjiu Peak will not forget these rules when they go out.
When outsiders saw them at first glance, they thought they were righteous disciples of those sects.
I had a chance to drink outside secretly today, and the drunkenness had subsided the next day. Lord Yan Juezhen might not know.
"Tong Yan, what are you talking about that's good about you? You... just have a special spiritual root. Not only does the young sect master value you, but even the master scolded me because of you! Why, I didn't do anything wrong.
"It seems that Tang Wuchuan was drunk and started talking nonsense.
"Master Yan Jue scolded you? Why?" If he hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known that Master Yan Jue had scolded his own disciple.
"It's not because of you, a Five Spiritual Root, that you turned into a Chaos Spiritual Root in the blink of an eye. It was clearly you who ran away on your own, but Master wrongfully accused me of driving him away. I don't accept it! It's none of my business."
Yang Qi: I seem to have heard some incredible inside story.
"You, go to my master right away and make it clear that you ran away on your own! Go quickly!"
She decided not to argue with the drunkard and nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, I'll go tomorrow."
Tang Wuchuan continued to be drunk and crazy, "Also, I remember that time you hit me. I will definitely win it back! It was obvious that I was beaten, but you still ran, and I took the blame... I will not let you go."
!Wait for me, don’t run, let me call you back!”
"If you continue to make trouble, I will go to Lord Yan Jue to file a complaint tomorrow, saying that you have been drinking." She was obviously lying to him by saying this. She would start practicing again tomorrow, so there would be no time to go to Lingjiu Peak.
But the word Yan Jue was very intimidating to Tang Wuchuan.
"Shameless, you encouraged me to drink this wine! I asked you why you called me out so kindly, but you actually wanted me to be punished, how insidious!"
"I didn't put the jug in your hand." Tong Yan snorted.
Yang Qi: Don’t blame me, he took it and drank it himself!
"Master, I didn't drink. Don't believe what the child said! She wants to harm me!" Tang Wuchuan kept arguing about this matter.
Tong Yan was confused when he heard this.
Then he suggested, "Let him sleep, it's too noisy!"
The other three people nodded in agreement, but no one took action.
Tong Yan had no choice but to act on his own, bending down and tapping Tang Wuchuan's sleeping point to make him quiet.
Without Tang Wuchuan's voice, the area around the fire seemed a little empty, and the sound of firewood crackling and burning could be heard quietly.
Only then did she notice that Huo Qizhi seemed to be silently watching the whole process. Occasionally, he would say a word or two when she handed him baked food.
Otherwise, I would either be barbecuing alone or drinking alone.
Maybe he really doesn't like too many people around.
If I didn't have to call him, he would have already rested by this time.
In the past, he was always alone. He was isolated by everyone because of his appearance and slow cultivation.
This is forced loneliness.
Some people prefer to enjoy a life alone. This is their own choice.
For those who choose to walk alone, what you should do is give them enough private space and not disturb them too much.
If Huo Qizhi is the latter, then he should be less disturbed by such time-consuming multi-person activities.
Yang Qi saw that the atmosphere was too quiet, so he started talking on his own.
"Uncle Tong, what do you do in your daily practice? Why don't you teach me so that I can learn from it too."
These words brought back Tong Yan's thoughts. He thought about it and said, "Be beaten, practice swordplay, squat on horseback, soak in the cold pool, meditate and gain enlightenment."
"Being... beaten?" Yang Qi almost stuttered in surprise, "What kind of training method is this beating?"
Tong Yan pondered for a while and said, "It probably makes your health bar thicker, so you can withstand beatings and drag the enemy to death."
Huo Qizhi: Is the master unreliable, or is there something wrong with her way of expressing it?
Yang Qi asked again, his voice was small, as if he was afraid that someone would hear, "Then who hit you, young...sect leader?"
Tong Yan nodded, "Yeah."
Then he frowned and said, "Master, he is very fierce."
Her serious expression frightened Yang Qi a little, and he couldn't help but said, "It seems that it's not easy to be a true disciple."
Huo Qizhi knew clearly in his heart: She was drunk too.
Shang Xun came here in the middle of the night looking for his apprentice, and happened to hear this sentence: Haha.
