Autumn, Baifeng Mountain hunting ground.
Hundreds of monks select a place that is haunted by evil beasts all year round, and compete for prey based on their strengths within a specified time. This is hunting. Baifeng Mountain stretches for several miles and has a wide variety of prey. It is one of the three famous hunting grounds and has hosted many large-scale hunts. Such grand events are not only an opportunity for aristocratic families of all sizes to actively participate, demonstrate their strength, and recruit talents, but they are also an opportunity for casual cultivators and rookies to make a name for themselves.
There is a wide square in front of Baifeng Mountain. Dozens of high hunting platforms rise from the ground around the square. They are crowded with people and buzzing with excited whispers. The quietest one is naturally the tallest and most gorgeous one. A hunting platform. Most of the people sitting on the stage were elderly celebrities and family members of the head of the family. The maids in the back row were holding canopies or holding fans. The female family members in the front row all covered their faces with fans and looked down at the hunting ground below with great reserve.
However, when Gusu Lan's cavalry formation appeared, this reserve could no longer be maintained.
During night hunting, the real pursuit of prey does not rely on horses. However, riding is one of the skills that children of aristocratic families must learn. On such a grand occasion, riding on horseback is not only a symbol of etiquette, but the riding formation can also create a grand momentum, which is really beautiful. To put it bluntly, it's just to "behave" and "look good". Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji sat on two snow-maned horses, leading the Gusu Lan clan's riding formation forward slowly. Both of them had swords hanging on their waists and bows and arrows on their backs. They were wearing white clothes and wiping their foreheads together. They looked as tall as immortals. Their white boots were spotless when walking on the snow. They were probably cleaner than the clothes of others. Lan's double jade is really like a pair of flawless jade, ice sculptures and snow sculptures. As soon as he appeared on the stage, it seemed that even the air was refreshing. Many female nuns were attracted by it. The more reserved ones just put down their fans and looked around more eagerly, while the bolder ones had already rushed to the edge of the hunting platform and threw the buds and flowers they had prepared over there. Suddenly there was a rain of flowers. It is customary when seeing handsome men and women to throw flowers at each other to express their admiration. The children of the Gusu Lan family have extraordinary talents and good looks due to their noble family, so they have long been accustomed to this. Lan Xichen Lan Wangji and Lan Wangji had become accustomed to it since they were thirteen years old. The two of them were calm and composed, nodding slightly to the hunting platform in return, and continued moving forward without stopping.
Suddenly, Lan Wangji raised his hand and intercepted a flower thrown from behind.
He looked back and saw the Yunmeng Jiang clan's cavalry formation behind him. The leader, Jiang Cheng, smacked his lips impatiently. Next to him, there was a person sitting on a horse with a shining black mane. Riding on the horse's head, he was looking aside as if nothing had happened, chatting and laughing with two graceful female nuns.
Lan Xichen saw Lan Wangji reining in his horse and asked, "Wangji, what's wrong?"
Lan Wangji said: "Wei Ying."
Wei Wuxian then turned around and said in surprise, "What? Hanguang-Jun, did you call me? What's the matter?"
Lan Wangji held up the flower, his face looked very cold, and his tone was the same as he said, "Is it you?"
Wei Wuxian immediately denied it: "It's not me."
The two female cultivators beside him immediately said: "Don't believe him, it's him!"
Wei Wuxian said, "How could you wrongly accuse a good person like this? I'm angry!"
The two female cultivators laughed, pulled the reins, and ran back to their square formation. Lan Wangji lowered the hand holding the flower and shook his head. Jiang Cheng said, "Jun Zewu, Lord Hanguang, I'm sorry, but please ignore him."
Lan Xichen smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Mr. Wei, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Wei for the flowers."
After they slowly walked away, carrying the fragrance, flowers, and rain along the way, Jiang Cheng looked at the handkerchiefs on the hunting platform that were waving into a sea of colorful silk, and said to Wei Wuxian, "What did you throw after them?"
Wei WuXian said, "Seeing how good-looking he is, why don't I throw two of them away?"
Jiang Cheng sneered: "How old are you and what kind of status do you have to play such a trick?"
Wei Wuxian looked at him and said, "Do you want it too? There are many more on the ground, can I pick them up for you?" As he spoke, he bent down and Jiang Cheng said, "Get out!"
At this moment, Jin Guangyao's voice sounded over the square: "Qinghe Nie's riding formation enters!"
Nie Mingjue was extremely tall, which gave him a great sense of oppression when he stood. When he was riding on a horse, he had a commanding presence overlooking the entire scene. The noise on the hunting platform was instantly reduced. When the famous men on the family list appear on the stage, Hua Yu is almost inevitably hit in the face. Nie Mingjue, who is ranked seventh, is an exception. If Lan Wangji is cold and icy, as frosty as snow, Nie Mingjue is cold and firey, as if he will burn with anger at any time, making people dare not easily provoke him. Therefore, even though the girls, whose chests were pounding wildly, had already grasped the sweaty flowers in their hands, they did not dare to throw them out, for fear of annoying him and smashing the entire hunting platform with a backhand. However, there were many male cultivators who admired Chifeng Zun, and the cheers were particularly deafening. Next to Nie Mingjue, Nie Huaisang is still very well-dressed today, with a sword hanging in a ring and a paper fan gently waving. At first glance, he looks like a troubled young man, but everyone knows that there is no way he can pull out the sword. Chances are, I will probably just stroll around Baifeng Mountain and take in the scenery.
After the Nie family in Qinghe, there is the Yunmeng Jiang family.
Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng rode onto the stage, and in an instant there was another shower of flowers, which made Jiang Cheng's face turn black. However, Wei Wuxian bathed in it, feeling very comfortable, and waved to the highest hunting platform. The best seat on the stage belonged to Mrs. Jin of the Lanling Jin clan, and sitting next to her was Jiang Yanli. Mrs. Jin had been holding her hand and talking to her lovingly before. Jiang Yanli usually had a neutral and inconspicuous appearance, her eyebrows lowered and her eyes lowered, but when she saw her two younger brothers greeting her, her face suddenly brightened. She put down her fan, said something shy to Mrs. Jin, walked to the stands and threw two flowers at them.
It took her all her strength to throw it. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng were a little worried about her falling for a moment. Seeing that Jiang Yanli stood firm, they felt relieved. They raised their hands and caught it easily. They both smiled slightly and threw it. He pinned the lavender flower to his heart before moving on. Many women around looked at Jiang Yanli with envy. She lowered her head and returned to Mrs. Jin. At this moment, a row of monks with white background and gold patterns, wearing light armor and sitting on tall horses, rushed out. The person at the front, with handsome features and armor, was naturally the head of the family, Jin Guangshan.
Mrs. Jin quickly patted Jiang Yanli on the shoulder, took her hand and dragged her to the stand, pointing to the Lanling Jin Sect's riding formation below.
Amidst the neighing sound, the horse suddenly took the lead, ran around the square, and suddenly reined in the horse. The man on the horse has a handsome posture, his clothes are as white as snow, his brows are more eye-catching than the dot of cinnabar between his brows, and his bow-drawing posture is so heroic that it immediately sets off a frenzy on the hunting platform. The man glanced at the hunting platform intentionally or unintentionally. Although he tried his best to keep his face straight, there was an uncontrollable arrogance in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Wei Wuxian snorted and laughed half to death on his horse: "I'm really convinced by him, like a peacock."
Jiang Cheng said, "Please calm down, my sister is still watching from the hunting platform."
Wei WuXian said, "Don't worry, as long as he doesn't make Senior Sister cry again, I don't care. You shouldn't have brought her here."
Jiang Cheng said: "The Lanling Jin family strongly invites me, but I can't lose face."
Wei WuXian said, "I think it was Mrs. Jin who invited me. She will definitely find a way to get Senior Sister and the male princess together later."
With that said, Jin Zixuan had already galloped to the shooting range. This row of targets is a checkpoint before officially entering the mountain. Those who enter the mountain to participate in the hunt must shoot one from a specified distance to qualify for admission. There are seven circles in the archery target, corresponding to the seven entry mountain roads. The closer the arrow falls to the red heart, the more convenient the corresponding mountain road is. Jin Zixuan did not slow down at all. He pulled out an arrow with his backhand, drew the bow and shot it, hitting the red heart. There were cheers from all sides of the hunting platform.
Seeing Jin Zixuan making a show of himself, Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng's expressions remained calm. Suddenly, a heavy grunt came from not far away, and someone shouted loudly: "Whoever is here is not convinced, just come and try to see if you can shoot better than Zixuan!"
This man was tall and handsome, with dark complexion and a loud voice. He was Jin Guangshan's nephew and Jin Zixuan's cousin Jin Zixun. Wei Wuxian had a dispute with Jin Zixuan before when Jin Lintai held a flower banquet. He remembered this grudge and now came to provoke them. Wei Wuxian smiled slightly, and Jin Zixun looked proud when he saw that he didn't respond. Before the Yunmeng Jiang clan's cavalry formation arrived at the shooting range, Wei Wuxian said to the Lan clan's twin swords who were setting up arrows and testing their bows on horseback: "Lan Zhan, can you help me?"
Lan Wangji glanced at him and said nothing. Jiang Cheng asked, "What are you going to do again?"
Lan Wangji said, "What's the matter?"
Wei WuXian said, "I'll let you use it to wipe my forehead?"
Hearing this, Lan Wangji immediately withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at him. Lan Xichen laughed and said, "Master Wei, you don't know something..."
Lan Wangji said, "Brother, there's no need to say more."
Lan Xichen said: "Okay."
Jiang Cheng wanted to slap Wei Wuxian off his horse. This guy clearly knew that Lan Wangji would definitely not borrow it, but he still asked. It was just boring and annoying. He would have done this if he hadn't sworn to him under the circumstances. He said: "Why do you want to wipe your forehead? Do you want to hang yourself? I'll lend you my belt. No thanks."
Wei Wuxian took off the black belt on his wrist and said, "You can keep the belt. If you don't want to wipe your forehead, I don't want that thing of yours."
Jiang Cheng said: "You——"
Before he finished speaking, Wei Wuxian quickly tied the black belt over his eyes, blindfolded him, strung the string, drew the bow, and released the arrow—hit!
This series of actions was completed with lightning speed, and others did not even realize what he was going to do, or even see his movements clearly, and the red heart on the target was pierced to the core. After a moment of silence, an overwhelming wave of applause erupted from all directions, even more enthusiastic than the one for Jin Zixuan just now.
Wei Wuxian curled his lips slightly, turned the long bow twice in his hand, and threw it back. Seeing that he was now more popular than the Lanling Jin clan, Jin Zixun snorted heavily, with a feeling of displeasure on his face and in his heart, and said: "It's just an opening arrow, you are doing these flashy things, and you are blindfolded now." , if you have the ability, you can stay blindfolded for the entire hunt? We will see the real chapter on Baifeng Mountain later to determine the winner!"
Wei Wuxian said, "Okay?"
Jin Zixun waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go!"
The monks under him quickly galloped forward, hoping to rush in first, seize the opportunity, and quickly catch all the high-level prey. Jin Guangshan was very proud to see that his cavalry was well-trained. Seeing Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng still sitting on their horses, he smiled and said, "Sect Master Jiang, Mr. Wei, what are you doing, aren't you going into the mountain? Be careful that Zixun will kill all the prey." It's all gone."
Wei WuXian said, "There's no rush. He can't take it away."
Everyone else was startled. Jin Guangshan was thinking about what "can't take it away" meant when he saw Wei Wuxian get off his horse and said to Jiang Cheng, "You go first."
Jiang Cheng said, "Just take it easy, that's almost enough."
Wei Wuxian waved his hand, Jiang Cheng tightened the reins, and galloped away with the Yunmeng Jiang family.
Wei Wuxian, blindfolded and with his hands clasped behind his back, walked slowly and slowly towards the mountain road of Baifeng Mountain, as if he was not participating in a hunt but taking a leisurely stroll in his own garden.
Everyone was wondering, could it be that he really planned not to take off the black belt covering his eyes during the whole night hunting? How can I participate in hunting like this?
Looking at each other, they finally felt that the matter had nothing to do with them, so they were happy to watch the show and set off on their own.
Wei Wuxian walked alone for a long time, and finally found a suitable place to rest deep in the mountains of Baifeng Mountain.
An extremely thick branch grew sideways from an even thicker trunk, blocking his way. Wei Wuxian patted the wrinkled tree bark twice. It felt very strong, and he jumped up lightly and deftly.
The noisy sound of the hunting platform has long been blocked from the mountains and forests. Wei Wuxian leaned against the tree, his eyes narrowed under the black cloth. The sun shines on his face through the gaps between the leaves.
He raised Chen Qing, blew air from his lips, and stroked it gently with his fingers. The sound of Qingyue's flute soared into the sky like a bird, spreading far and wide in the mountains and forests.
While Wei Wuxian was playing the flute, he lowered one leg and swayed slightly. The toes of the boots brushed against the weeds under the trees, not caring that they were wet by the morning dew on the green grass leaves.
After the song ended, Wei Wuxian folded his hands and changed into a more comfortable position, leaning against the tree. The flute was in his arms, and the flower was still in his heart, exuding a slightly cool fragrance.
He didn't know how long he sat there, but when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly moved and woke up.
Someone approaches.
However, there was no murderous intention in this man, so he still leaned on the tree and was too lazy to get up. He didn't even bother to take off the black belt that blindfolded him. He just tilted his head.
After not hearing anything from the other party for a long time, Wei Wuxian couldn't help but take the initiative and said, "Are you here to join the hunt?"
The other party should not.
Wei WuXian said, "You can't hunt anything near me."
The other party still said nothing, but took a few steps closer to him.
Wei Wuxian felt a little more energetic. Ordinary monks were a little wary when they looked at him. They wouldn't dare to approach him even in a crowded place, let alone being alone and getting so close. If it weren't for the fact that this man didn't have any murderous intent in him, Wei Wuxian would really feel that the other person had evil intentions. He straightened up slightly, looked sideways in the direction where the other person was standing, raised the corners of his lips, and smiled slightly. He was about to say something when he was suddenly pushed hard.
Wei Wuxian was pushed so hard that his back hit the tree. Just as he was about to pull off the black belt that covered his eyes with his right hand, someone immediately tightened his wrist. The force was so strong that he couldn't break free, but he still had no killing intent. Wei Wuxian moved his left sleeve slightly and was about to shake off the talisman, but the opponent noticed his intention and caught him in the same way. He pressed his hands against the tree with extremely strong movements. Wei Wuxian raised his kick and was about to kick it out when he suddenly felt a warmth on his lips and was stunned on the spot.
This touch feels strange and different, moist and warm. Wei Wuxian didn't understand what was going on at first, and his mind went blank. When he came to his senses, he was shocked.
This man was holding his wrist, pressing him against the tree and kissing him.
He struggled hard, trying to force himself out and pull off his black belt, but he couldn't break free. I wanted to move again, but suddenly I held back.
The person who kissed him seemed to be trembling slightly.
Wei Wuxian suddenly couldn't move anymore.
He thought to himself: "It seems that this girl is very strong, but she is afraid and shy? She is so nervous." Otherwise, she would not have taken advantage of this moment to attack him. She must have mustered up great courage. Dare to do such a thing. Moreover, it seems that the other party's cultivation level is not weak, so his self-esteem must be stronger. If he rashly pulled off his black belt and the other party saw it, how embarrassed and embarrassed would this girl be?
The four thin lips turned over and over, cautiously and inseparably. Before Wei Wuxian could decide what to do, his lingering lips and teeth suddenly became fierce. Wei Wuxian's teeth were not clenched. He was invaded by the other party and suddenly became helpless. He felt a little difficult to breathe and wanted to turn his head, but the other party pinched his face and forced him back. While their lips and tongues were twisting and turning, he was also dazed. It was not until the other party bit his lower lip, rubbed it for a while, and left reluctantly that he finally came back to his senses.
Wei Wuxian was so kissed that his whole body went limp. He leaned against the tree for a while before some strength came back to his arms.
He raised his hand and violently pulled off the black belt. He was stung by the sudden sunlight and finally opened his eyes. He was surrounded by nothingness, shrubs, old trees, weeds, withered vines. Where was the second person?
Wei Wuxian was still in a daze. He sat on a branch for a while, and when he jumped down, he felt weak on his feet and even light-headed.
He quickly held on to the tree trunk, cursing in his mind that he was useless because he was kissed until his legs were weak and he couldn't stand still. I looked up and looked around, but there was no sign of anyone. The scene just now seemed like a ridiculous and erotic daydream, reminding Wei Wuxian that he couldn't help but think of those legends about mountain spirits and ghosts.
But he was certain that it was definitely not some mountain spirit or ghost, it must be a human being.
Recalling the feeling just now, a vague itching crawled to the top of my heart. Wei Wuxian put his right hand on his heart, only to find that the flower that was pinned here was gone.
He searched the ground and found nothing. It won't disappear out of thin air.
Wei Wuxian was stunned for a while, then unconsciously touched his lips, and after a long while, he muttered: "How can this be unreasonable... This is mine..."
After searching around the area, no one was found. Wei Wuxian was filled with laughter and tears. He knew that the other party was probably hiding from him intentionally and would not come out again, so he had no choice but to start walking randomly in the forest. After walking for a while, he suddenly heard a heavy blow in front of him. Wei Wuxian looked up and saw that the tall figure in white in front of him, who was it if it wasn't Lan Wangji?
But this person was clearly Lan Wangji, but the things he did didn't look like Lan Wangji. When Wei Wuxian saw him, he was punching the tree, damaging the tree.
Wei Wuxian was surprised and said, "Lan Zhan! What are you doing?"
The man turned around suddenly, and it turned out to be Lan Wangji. But at this time, there was actually a slight bloodshot appearance in his eyes, and his expression was terrifying. Wei Wuxian was stunned for a moment and said, "Wow, that's scary."
Lan Wangji sternly said, "Let's go!"
Wei WuXian said, "You let me go as soon as I arrived. Do you hate me so much?"
Lan Wangji said: "Stay away from me!"
Except for those days at the bottom of the Xuanwu Cave, this was the first time Wei Wuxian had seen Lan Wangji lose his composure like this. But the situation was special at that time, and it was understandable. Why is he looking like this now when everything is fine?
Wei Wuxian took a step back, "away" from him, and continued to ask: "Hey, Lan Zhan, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Just tell me if you have anything to say?"
Lan Wangji did not look directly at him, and pulled out Bichen. Several blue lights flashed across, and the surrounding trees were swept by the sword energy. After a moment, they collapsed suddenly.
Holding the sword and standing still for a while, his fingers tightened and his joints turned white from the force. He seemed to have calmed down a little. He suddenly looked over again, staring at Wei Wuxian.
Wei Wuxian was confused for a while. His eyes were covered by the black belt for more than an hour, and the sunlight was still a bit dazzling to him. Tears kept welling up in his eyes after the black belt was removed, and his lips were slightly red and swollen. Wei Wuxian felt that he must not be able to see what he looked like at this moment. , being stared at by him, he couldn't help but touch his chin and said, "Lan Zhan?"
"..."
Lan Wangji said, "It's okay."
With a clang, he returned the sword to its sheath, and Lan Wangji turned around and walked away. Wei Wuxian still felt something was wrong with him, so he thought about it and followed him just to be safe. Lan Wangji used a grapple to grasp his pulse, but Lan Wangji sidestepped and looked at him coldly. Wei Wuxian said, "Don't look at me like that. I just want to see what's wrong with you. You were so weird just now. Were you really not poisoned or had an accident during the night hunt?"
Lan Wangji said: "No."
Seeing that his expression finally returned to normal, and that he was probably fine, Wei Wuxian felt relieved. Although he was curious about what was going on, it was not good to interfere too much, so he chatted for a few words. Lan Wangji didn't speak at first, but then he finally replied briefly with a few words.
The lingering feeling of heat and swelling on Wei Wuxian's lips kept reminding him that he had just lost the first kiss he had held for twenty years. He was so dazzled by the kiss that he kissed her, and yet he didn't even know who the other person was or what he looked like. I don't even know, this is really unreasonable.
Wei Wuxian sighed leisurely and suddenly said, "Lan Zhan, have you ever kissed anyone?"
If Jiang Cheng were here and heard him ask such a frivolous and boring question, he would definitely punch him immediately.
Lan Wangji also suddenly stopped, his voice was a bit cold and stiff, and he said, "Why are you asking this?"
Wei Wuxian smiled with a clear look on his face.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "No, right? I knew it. It was just a casual question. You don't need to be so angry."
Lan Wangji said, "How do you know."
Wei WuXian said, "Isn't this nonsense? You keep such a straight face all day, no one dares to kiss you. Of course, I don't expect you to take the initiative to kiss others. I see, your first kiss will last a lifetime. Ha ha ha ha..."
He was proud of himself, while Lan Wangji's face was expressionless, but his expression seemed to have softened.
After he had laughed enough, Lan Wangji said, "What about you."
Wei Wuxian raised his eyebrows and said, "Me? Do you still need to ask? I'm naturally experienced in many battles."
Lan Wangji's calm expression just now was quickly covered by a layer of frost and snow.
At this moment, Wei Wuxian suddenly fell silent and said, "Shh!"
He listened to something alertly for a moment, then pulled Lan Wangji behind a bush.
Lan Wangji didn't know what he meant by this, and was about to ask, but he saw Wei Wuxian staring in one direction. Following his line of sight, he saw two figures, one white and one purple, one in front and one behind, slowly walking from the blue clouds. Walk out.
The man walking in front was tall and slender, handsome but domineering, with a little cinnabar between his brows, white clothes with gold edges, and bright accessories all over his body. Especially when he walked with his head held high and his posture and expression were extremely arrogant, he was Jin Zixuan. The man following him was thin, walked slowly, and lowered his head without saying a word. In sharp contrast to Jin Zixuan in front of him, it was Jiang Yanli.
Wei WuXian thought to himself, "I knew Madam Jin would definitely ask Senior Sister and Golden Peacock to come out alone."
On the side, Lan Wangji saw his disdainful expression and whispered, "What's the problem between you and Jin Zixuan?"
Wei Wuxian snorted.
If you ask why Wei Wuxian hates Jin Zixuan so much, it really has a long history.
Mrs. Yu and Jin Zixuan's mother, Mrs. Jin, are close friends. They have agreed since childhood that if the children born in the future are sons, they will marry Jin Lan; if they are daughters, they will be regarded as sisters; For husband and wife.
The hostesses of the two families have a close relationship with each other, know each other well, and are a perfect match. This marriage couldn't be more perfect, and neither of them can be called a match made in heaven. Unfortunately, the parties involved did not think so.
Jin Zixuan has been a star-studded boy since he was a child. He was born white and pink, with a little cinnabar between his eyebrows. He was born in a noble family and was very smart. He was loved by almost everyone. He was full of pride when he was young. Mrs. Jin brought him to Lotus Pier as a guest several times. Neither Wei Wuxian nor Jiang Cheng liked to play with him. Only Jiang Yanli always wanted to feed him his own food, but Jin Zixuan didn't like to talk to him. She made Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng scream in anger several times.
Back then, Wei Wuxian made a big fuss in Yunshen, disrupting the marriage between the Jinjiang family. After returning to Lotus Pier, he apologized to Jiang Yanli. Jiang Yanli didn't say anything, but just touched his head. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng both thought that the matter was over, and they were happy that their engagement was broken off. But later they found out that at that time, Jiang Yanli must have been feeling very sad.
In the middle of the Sun Shooting Campaign, the Yunmeng Jiang clan went to the Langye area to support the Lanling Jin clan. Due to the shortage of manpower, Jiang Yanli went to the battlefield with them.
She knew that her cultivation was not high, so she did what she could to provide food for the monks. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng initially disagreed, but Jiang Yanli was already good at cooking. She was happy with her cooking, got along well with others, didn't force herself to the point of tiring herself, and was very safe, so the two of them felt that not bad.
Due to the difficult conditions and shabby food, Jiang Yanli was worried that her two younger brothers would not be able to eat well due to their picky mouth, so she would make two extra portions of soup for Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng in private every day. However, no one except herself knew that there was a third copy, given to Jin Zixuan who was also in Langye at the time.
Jin Zixuan didn't know either. Although he liked the bowl of soup very much and was grateful to the person who sent it, Jiang Yanli never left his name. Unexpectedly, all this was seen by another low-level female cultivator. This female cultivator was a domestic servant of the Lanling Jin Sect. Because her cultivation level was not high, she worked the same job as Jiang Yanli. She had good looks and was good at taking advantage of others' mistakes. She followed Jiang Yanli a few times out of curiosity and almost figured out what was going on. She quietly picked an opportunity and wandered outside Jin Zixuan's house after Jiang Yanli delivered the soup and left, deliberately letting Jin Zixuan see her.
Jin Zixuan finally caught someone, so of course he had to question him. The woman was very smart and didn't admit it. Instead, she blushed and denied it vaguely. It sounded like she did it, but she didn't want Jin Zixuan to see through her hard work. Therefore, Jin Zixuan did not force her to admit it, but he began to favor the female monk and took good care of her. He promoted her from a domestic servant to a guest guest. For a long time, Jiang Yanli didn't notice anything was wrong, until one day, after delivering the soup, she was bumped into by Jin Zixuan, who came back to pick up a letter.
Jin Zixuan naturally wanted to ask Jiang Yanli what he was doing in his room. Jiang Yanli didn't dare to say anything at first, but the more he asked, the more suspicious he became, so he had no choice but to tell the truth nervously.
However, this reason has already been used.
One can imagine how Jin Zixuan would react after hearing this this time.
So, he "exposed" Jiang Yanli's "lies" on the spot. Jiang Yanli never expected that such an incident would arise. She usually never made any public announcements, and no one even knew that she was the daughter of the Yunmeng Jiang family. For a while, she couldn't produce any strong evidence, so she made a few excuses. The more I argued, the more chilled I became. Finally, Jin Zixuan said to her firmly: "Don't think that just because you are born in a wealthy family, you can steal and trample on other people's thoughts. Even if some people are born in a humble family, their character is much nobler. Please respect yourself."
Jiang Yanli finally understood a few meanings from Jin Zixuan's words.
From the beginning, Jin Zixuan did not believe that a daughter from a family with a low level of cultivation like Jiang Yanli could do anything or how much help she could do when she went to the battlefield. To put it bluntly, he felt that she was just looking for a reason to get close to him and was here to cause trouble.
Jin Zixuan never understood her, nor did he want to understand her. So he won't believe her even more.
After he said a few words, Jiang Yanli stood there and suddenly burst into tears. When Wei Wuxian came back, he saw exactly this scene.
Although his senior sister has a good temper, except for the day when the three of them were reunited after the destruction of Lotus Pier and they hugged each other and cried a lot, she has never shed a few tears in front of others, let alone cried in front of so many people. So loud, so aggrieved. Wei Wuxian was completely panicked. Jiang Yanli was crying so much that he couldn't even speak clearly when he asked. When he saw Jin Zixuan who was stunned at the side, he became furious and thought, why is this bitch kicking him again? He went up and started fighting with Jin Zixuan. The two fought so hard that all the monks in the base area came out to start a fight. After he figured out the whole story, he became even more furious, saying that one day Jin Zixuan would die in his hands. Ask someone to drag the female cultivator out. After a confrontation, the truth came to light, and Jin Zixuan became stiff. Wei Wuxian scolded him again, but his face was livid and he didn't say a word in reply, nor did he fight back when he hit him. If Jiang Yanli hadn't held his hand later, and Jiang Cheng and Jin Guangshan had come back to pull Wei Wuxian away, Jin Zixuan would never have thought of participating in the Baifeng Mountain hunt today.
Later, although Jiang Yanli continued to stay in Langxie to help, he only followed the rules and did his own thing well. Not only did he never bring soup to Jin Zixuan anymore, he even stopped looking at him. Soon, the Langxie crisis was resolved, and Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng took her back to Yunmeng. On the contrary, Jin Zixuan, either because he felt guilty or because he was severely scolded by Mrs. Jin, gradually asked more and more questions about Jiang Yanli after the Sun Shooting Campaign.
When others know about this, most of them say it's just a misunderstanding. What's the big deal if it's clarified? But Wei Wuxian would never think so. He was extremely disgusted with Jin Zixuan, a self-righteous male princess, a ostentatious golden peacock, and a blind person who only looked at appearances. He simply didn't believe that an arrogant Jin Zixuan would realize his mistake and suddenly became interested in Jiang Yanli. It was probably because he was pushed and scolded by Mrs. Jin that he reluctantly completed the task.
But disgust comes from disgust. In order not to embarrass Jiang Yanli, Wei Wuxian has no choice but not to come out now. Lan Wangji looked sideways at him, seemingly confused, but Wei Wuxian had no time to explain to him. He just put his index finger on his lips to make a silent sound and continued to look there. A pair of light-colored eyes stared at the moist and plump lips for a moment before looking away.
Jin Zixuan pushed aside the grass, revealing a thick basilisk corpse. He leaned over for a moment and said, "Dead."
Jiang Yanli nodded.
Jin Zixuan said: "Measure a person and a snake."
Jiang Yanli said: "What?"
Jin Zixuan said: "It's a monster spread from the southern barbarian land. It can suddenly stand up when it meets someone, and then if it wants to compete with you, it will devour the person if it is longer than the person. It's not that good, it looks scary."
Jiang Yanli didn't seem to understand why he suddenly explained this to himself. Logically speaking, he should have said a few words at this time, such as "Mr. Jin is knowledgeable and talented" and "Mr. Jin is calm and composed". However, what he just said It was extremely superficial common sense, just making excuses. This kind of flattery sounded extremely hypocritical at first sight. I am afraid that only Jin Guangyao could say it without any shame. Jiang Yanli could only nod again. Wei Wuxian guessed that she was nodding her head all the way here.
There was a moment of silence, and the awkward breath penetrated through the grass and hit the faces of the two people behind the grass here. After a long while, Jin Zixuan finally led Jiang Yanli back. However, he continued to say as he walked: "This human snake has scales on its skin and its fangs are longer than its lower jaw. It should be a mutant. It is difficult for ordinary people to deal with it, and ordinary people cannot shoot through this layer of scales."
After a pause, he said in a nonchalant tone: "But it's not very good. All the prey hunted by the Baijia this time are not very good, and they can't hurt us Lanling people at all."
Hearing the last two sentences, the feeling of arrogance and arrogance came up again. Wei Wuxian felt unhappy in his heart, but he saw Lan Wangji staring at Jin Zixuan expressionlessly. Wei Wuxian felt a little strange and followed his gaze. He was speechless and thought to himself: "Since when did Jin Zixuan walk with the same hands and feet?!"
Jiang Yanli said: "It's best if you don't hurt anyone during the hunt."
Jin Zixuan said: "What's the value of prey that doesn't hurt people? If you go to the Lanling Jin Sect's private hunting ground, you can see a lot of rare prey."
Wei Wuxian scoffed inwardly: Who wants to go to your hunting ground?
Unexpectedly, Jin Zixuan made his own decision and said, "I will be free next month and can take you there."
Jiang Yanli said softly: "Thank you very much Mr. Jin for your kindness. But there is no need to bother."
Jin Zixuan was stunned and blurted out: "Why?"
How can we answer this kind of question? Jiang Yanli seemed to feel uneasy and lowered his head.
Jin Zixuan said: "You don't like watching hunting?"
Jiang Yanli nodded, and Jin Zixuan said, "Then why did you come this time?"
If not for Mrs. Jin's strong invitation, Jiang Yanli would not have come, but how could she say this?
Seeing Jiang Yanli's silence, Jin Zixuan's face turned red and white in turns, extremely ugly. After holding it in for a long time, he said firmly: "Do you not like to watch the hunt or do you not want to be with me?"
Jiang Yanli whispered: "No..."
Wei Wuxian knew that she was afraid that Jin Zixuan would ask her to go because of Mrs. Jin's wishes, but he didn't really think about it and didn't want to force him. But Jin Zixuan didn't know this. He only knew that he had never felt so embarrassed in his life. Not only was he rejected by a girl for the first time in his life, but it was also the first time he invited a girl to be rejected. An evil aura rushed to the center of his eyebrows. After a while, Suddenly he sneered and said, "That's fine."
Jiang Yanli said, "I'm sorry."
Jin Zixuan said coldly: "What do you have to be sorry for? It's up to you. Anyway, I didn't want to invite you in the first place. Just forget it if you don't want to."
Wei Wuxian's blood rushed to his forehead. He wanted to rush out immediately and fight Jin Zixuan again, but then he thought about it. It would be better if the teacher sister saw the true face of this man and despised him from now on. She never thought of him again. I was angry, so I suppressed my anger and wanted to endure it some more. Jiang Yanli's lips trembled, but she didn't say anything. She bowed slightly to Jin Zixuan and whispered, "I'm sorry."
She turned around and left, walking back silently. Jin Zixuan stood coldly for a while, looking in another direction. After a moment, he suddenly said: "Stop!"
Jiang Yanli did not turn around, but Jin Zixuan became even angrier. He took three steps to catch up and grabbed her hand, but a black shadow flashed before his eyes. Before he could see clearly, he received a palm on his chest. Jin Zixuan swung his sword, took a few steps back, took a closer look, and said angrily: "Wei Wuxian, why is it you again!"
Wei Wuxian stood in front of Jiang Yanli and said angrily, "I haven't fucking said anything yet, why is it you again?!"
Jin Zixuan said: "Are you crazy for taking action for no reason?"
Wei Wuxian clapped his hand and said, "You're the one I'm beating! What do you mean without provocation? What do you want to do by arresting my senior sister in anger??"
Jin Zixuan dodged and returned his sword, saying: "If I don't catch her, am I going to let her wander around in the mountains alone?!"
This sword light was deflected by another one and shot straight into the sky. When Jin Zixuan saw the person coming, he said in shock: "Hanguang Lord?"
Lan Wangji took Bichen away, stood between the three of them, and remained silent. Just as Wei Wuxian was about to step forward, Jiang Yanli grabbed Wei Wuxian and said, "Axian!..."
At the same time, a burst of noisy and chaotic footsteps came. A huge group of people, shouting and swarming, poured into the forest. The leader said: "What's going on!"
It turned out that just now, Lan Wangji and Jin Zixuan's sword rays shot up into the sky, alarming the nearby monks. They knew at a glance that two people were fighting, and hurried over together, and happened to see four people in the forest. Strange confrontation situation. The so-called enemy is on a narrow road, and the person leading it was Jin Zixun. He said: "Zixuan, this guy named Wei is causing trouble for you again?!"
Jin Zixuan said, "It's none of your business, so just leave it alone!" Seeing Wei Wuxian pulling Jiang Yanli away and trying to leave, he said, "Stop!"
Wei Wuxian said, "You really want to fight? Okay!"
Jin Zixun said: "Wei, what do you mean by targeting Zixuan again and again?"
Wei Wuxian glanced at him and said, "Who are you?"
Jin Zixun was startled and immediately became furious: "You don't even know who I am!?"
Wei Wuxian asked strangely, "Why should I know who you are?"
At the beginning of the Sun Shooting incident, Jin Zixun was injured and had to stay at the rear. He had never seen Wei Wuxian on the front line with his own eyes. He mostly heard rumors from others. He didn't take it seriously and thought that the rumors were exaggerated. And just now, Wei Wuxian used his whistle to summon the evil spirits in the mountains, and summoned away several of the vicious corpses that the group of them had almost hunted, causing them to waste their efforts, which was already unpleasant. Now Wei Wuxian asked him in person who he was, and he felt an inexplicable resentment: He recognized Wei Wuxian, but Wei Wuxian dared not to recognize him, and even dared to ask him who he was in public. This seemed to make him I lost a lot of face, and the more I thought about it, the more unhappy I became. Just as he was about to speak, bursts of golden light flashed in the air, but a second wave of people arrived.
This group of people descended with their swords and landed smoothly. The leader was a woman with extremely beautiful facial features and a vaguely tough look. He is heroic when wielding a sword, and graceful when walking slowly. Jin Zixun said: "Auntie!"
Jin Zixuan was startled and said, "Mother! Why are you here?" Then he thought that he and Lan Wangji's swords were shining into the sky. When Mrs. Jin saw them at the hunting platform, she would naturally not stop coming. He looked at the several Lanling Jin monks who came with his mother and said, "Why did you bring so many people here? You don't need to interfere with the hunting."
But Mrs. Jin spat: "Don't be so sentimental, who said I came to find you!"
When she caught a glimpse of Jiang Yanli, who was huddled behind Wei Wuxian, her expression instantly softened, and she went up to hold her hand and said softly: "Ali, why are you looking like this?"
Jiang Yanli said: "Thank you madam, I'm fine."
Mrs. Jin was very perceptive and said, "Did that damn boy bully you again?"
Jiang Yanli hurriedly said: "No."
Jin Zixuan moved slightly, but stopped talking. Mrs. Jin didn't know her son's temper yet, but she knew what was going on at a glance. She became furious and cursed her son: "Jin Zixuan! Are you going to die?! What did you say to me before you came out?!"
Jin Zixuan said: "Me!..."
Wei WuXian said: "No matter what your son told you, Mrs. Jin, from now on, he and his senior sister will just go to opposite sides of the road!"
He was angry and said this not very politely. Fortunately, Mrs. Jin only focused on comforting Jiang Yanli and did not dwell on it. Unexpectedly, she didn't care, but someone else took the opportunity to get angry. Jin Zixun shouted: "Wei Wuxian, my aunt is your elder, are you a little too arrogant to speak like this?"
Everyone else thought it was reasonable and agreed one after another. Wei WuXian said, "I'm not targeting Madam Jin. Your cousin has spoken harshly to my senior sister time and time again. If I, the Yunmeng Jiang Sect, can still tolerate it, I'm not calling myself an aristocratic family! Where's the arrogance?"
Jin Zixun sneered: "Where is the arrogance? Where are you not arrogant? Today is a big day for hundreds of families to hunt, and you are very popular? You have captured 30% of the prey by yourself. Don't you feel very proud? ah?"
Lan Wangji tilted his head slightly and said, "Thirty percent prey?"
Although all the hundreds of people who came with Jin Zixun had deep resentment on their faces, when Lan Wangji, who was rumored to have a very bad relationship with Wei Wuxian, opened his mouth as if to ask, someone immediately said impatiently: "Hanguang-Jun, you Don't you know yet? We were hunting in Baifeng Mountain just now, and after searching for a long time, we discovered that there was not even a single vicious corpse or resentful spirit in this hunting ground!"
"I sent someone to ask Lianfangzun at the hunting platform and found out that less than half an hour after the hunting started, a flute sound came from Baifeng Mountain, and then, almost all the vicious corpses and resentful spirits appeared one after another. , I went to Yunmeng Jiang's camp and threw myself into a trap!"
"Of the three major types of prey in Baifeng Mountain, only monsters and monsters are left..."
"As for the ghosts, they have all been summoned away by Wei Wuxian alone..."
Jin Zixun said: "You completely ignore others and only care about yourself. Aren't you arrogant enough?"
Wei Wuxian suddenly realized. It turns out that in the final analysis it is just an excuse. He smiled and said: "Isn't that what you said? The opening arrow is nothing. If you have the ability, you will see the real results on the night hunting field."
Jin Zixun let out a "ha", as if he thought it was funny, and said: "You are just relying on the devil's crooked ways, and you are not relying on your true ability. You just played the flute twice, so how can you count it as a real achievement?"
Wei Wuxian asked strangely: "I didn't use any conspiracy, so why doesn't it count? You can also play the flute twice to see if any evil corpses and resentful spirits are willing to follow you?"
Jin Zixun said: "You are so unruly, nothing better than conspiracy!"
Hearing this, Lan Wangji frowned. Mrs. Jin seemed to have noticed the dispute here and said calmly: "Zixun, that's enough."
Wei Wuxian was too lazy to argue with him and smiled: "Well, I don't know what a true seal is. Please use it to beat me and let me see it."
If he could win, Jin Zixun would not be so aggrieved at this moment. He choked for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and mocked: "But it's no wonder you don't think you are at fault. It's not the first time that Mr. Wei has disobeyed the rules. You didn't do it at the last flower banquet and this hunting meeting." Wearing a sword, it's such a big occasion and you don't pay attention to the slightest etiquette. Where do you put those of us who are attending with you?"
Wei Wuxian ignored him and turned to Lan Wangji: "Lan Zhan, I forgot to mention that you helped me block that sword just now, thank you."
Seeing that Wei Wuxian looked like he didn't take him seriously, Jin Zixun gritted his teeth and said, "The Yunmeng Jiang family's tutor is nothing more than this!"
