  Chapter 70 Between the Ruins (Eighth)

As the night darkens, it is already in the Perching Phoenix Valley When the lights were turned off, many dísciples had already gone to bed, and only the dísciple, who was leaving tomorrow, was still in the main hall receiving instructions from the teachers.

In the stone chamber behind the waterfall, Zuo Lingquan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, conscientiously refining qi.

Wu Qingwan wears a slim long skirt and maintains the same posture, sitting next to Zuo Lingquan.

It is not the first time for the two of them to cultivation together, but at this moment, it is obvious that they can't enter the concentration. They are both in Divine Movement Ten Thousand Li.

Zuo Lingquan sat cross-legged with eyes closed, thinking about that jade slip and Wu Qingwan's meaning.

And Wu Qingwan is also thinking about her own'meaning', because she can't figure it out either.

If she was just a dual Cultivation cultivation technique, she didn't have a suitable object to put it on. How could she be committed to a man who has no emotions because she is greedy for the little cultivation speed.

However, Zuo Lingquan is also suitable for this cultivation technique, and in terms of talent, it is very necessary.

Wu Qingwan is not young anymore, but her cultivation base is struggling, and she has no extravagant expectations for being in the immortal class; but Zuo Lingquan is only seventeen, and she has boundless prospects in the future, she has a suitable cultivation technique in hand. Zuo Lingquan can help Zuo Lingquan, and she can only help this; if it is an ordinary cultivation technique, she would give it without the slightest hesitation, but why is this a Dual Cultivation cultivation technique......

Wu Qingwan was very tangled in his heart.

She admitted that she admired Zuo Lingquan’s character and personality. Zuo Lingquan took an adventure to rescue Wang Rui in Evergreen Mountain, and even talked back to her, which impressed her deeply. She likes this affectionate and true and dare to do The "Swordsman" with the people around her; she also appreciates Zuo Lingquan's perseverance, innate talent, looks...

It can be said that in her eyes, Zuo Lingquan is almost perfect, except for occasional confusion. Take a glance, there is no flaw at all-this is understandable, after all, it is still small.

If Zuo Lingquan is just a young master from a wealthy family outside of China and comes to Perching Phoenix Valley to apprenticeship, Wu Qingwan is certain that she will make'don't let one's own fertile water flow into others' field 'The absurd thing.

After all, each other is'unmarried and unmarried'. She appreciates everything about each other, so why not go further? She is not a true Master, she is just older. The cultivation doesn't care about her age, and there is no clear rule of not being able to find Dao Companion.

But unfortunately, Wu Qingwan is unmarried, but Zuo Lingquan is not unmarried.

Zuo Lingquan is Jiang Yi's Prince Consort after all, and she is Jiang Yi's aunt, even if there is no blood relationship, this relationship is still there.

Wu Qingwan didn't dare to think deeply about her inner thoughts, she should avoid this kind of thing rationally, she should deny herself, can't be influenced by elusive's careful thinking, and go the wrong way.

But reason also told her that this cultivation technique is the most suitable for her and Zuo Lingquan, as it was destined by heaven.

Especially after Cheng Jiujiang overbearing today, sect fell into a predicament of precariousness.

She knows that Zuo Lingquan will help her unremittingly, and this cultivation technique just allows them to diligently improve the cultivation base to deal with the upcoming howling wind and torrential rain.

If she hides it, waits until the sect is over, or delays each other’s cultivation, wouldn’t she regret it for life?

Wu Qingwan doesn't know how to choose, and feels that it is a mistake to go which way. So I just lay flat and didn't choose, and gave the cultivation technique to Zuo Lingquan, letting him make his own decision.

Zuo Lingquan wants to fix her. No matter what she thinks in her heart, sentimental or ruthless, she can find a legitimate excuse to convince herself.

Whether this move is compelled by circumstances, it doesn't matter if you are willing, you don't have to think about it. At least the result is acceptable to both parties, and there will be immeasurable benefits for Zuo Lingquan, for her, and even for Jiang Yi in the future.

But she didn’t expect, Zuo Lingquan looked brilliant, she turned out to be an elm bump...

Wu Qingwan took a breath while sitting cross-legged and exhaled again. , I don't know how to describe the current situation.

She took out the cultivation technique, but Zuo Lingquan pretended to be confused and kept testing her meaning.

If she dared to figure out what she meant, would she give the initiative to Zuo Lingquan?   She just didn't dare to think deeply about her motives, so she let Zuo Lingquan make a decision.

Now Zuo Lingquan is pretending to be confused, and even an excuse of'compelled by circumstances' will not be found; as an elder, as a teacher, she can't take the initiative to say these things.

Since Zuo Lingquan is not taking the initiative, Wu Qingwan doesn’t want to waste her mind anymore. Anyway, Zuo Lingquan doesn’t want this great opportunity, it shows that her mind is right and it’s not a bad thing; she doesn’t have to risk doing stupid things anymore. Without this cultivation technique, the sect crisis would not still be resolved.

That's it, what's the matter with love...

Wu Qingwan thought wildly, I don't know how long it lasted, outside the stone cave, a muffled thunder rang out suddenly.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse outside, there are only a few thin clouds, and the sudden thunder is obviously a bit weird.

Wu Qingwan noticed something, opened his eyes, looked towards the outside, and wondered:

"It's sunny, why did it thunder?"

Zuo Lingquan also didn't settle down. At this time, he got up, walked outside the cave, and looked up. There was a faint moon above Perching Phoenix Valley, but a large cloud of clouds appeared in the field of vision and in the distance. The lightning flashed, and it seemed that it was raining heavily.

"It seems that there is heavy rain over the capital."

Yin and Yang rain is not a rare phenomenon, but it is so sudden without warning, it is indeed rare.

Wu Qingwan looked at it for a few times, then shook his head and said: "God's temper, ordinary people can't figure it out."

Zuo Lingquan felt that the rain came too suddenly, anyway, today my heart is a little confused. Falun Gong, simply opened the mouth and said:

"Senior Wu, I haven't returned to the capital for some time, so I just went back to have a look and come back tomorrow."

Wu Qingwan No objection, I thought about it and said:

"Remember to drop by to see Jiang Yi. By the way, buy her something. Didn’t you buy a Huajian carp last time? I think Jiang Yi is wearing it. It's quite suitable. You can buy one for her, she will like it if she thinks about it."

"Uh..."

Zuo Lingquan's mind was a bit messy, but now it's even more messy. After nodding his head, he went down the stairs alone.

Wu Qingwan sat cross-legged again, but his mind calmed down. After a long period of silence, he rubbed his eyebrows weakly... —— The    sky above Eastern Flower City thunder rolling, beans Large raindrops poured down, and when viewed from a distance, it was as if someone had pierced the Tianhe River, pouring down the flood.

Zuo Lingquan rode a big black horse and ran for thirty li or so, and arrived at the outskirts of the capital in less than two quarters of an hour. He just rushed into the rain and couldn't open his eyes because of the rain.

There was no one on the official road. Even the city gate guards hid in the city passageway, watching the inexplicable rainstorm.

Enter the capital from the city gate, the location is just outside of Riverfacing Lane.

Zuo Lingquan thought that there should be no one on the street due to such heavy rain. He looked up, but found that under the eaves of the street, men, women, old and children stood densely packed, with some belongings still in their arms. A few people were still kneeling on the ground, shouting something like: "God opens his eyes."

Zuo Lingquan was a little bit confused. After walking forward under the heavy rain, only a few steps, he found that the houses behind the square walls had scorched and burnt marks on the roofs, and some houses were still green under the rain. cigarette.

There are not one or two houses with burn marks. Swept away at a glance, it seems that the entire Riverfacing Lane and the surrounding area have been burned by fire. Fortunately, the burning was not very serious. It should have been extinguished by a sudden rainstorm.

Zuo Lingquan heart slightly startled, quickly turned the horse head, moved towards Tang Family wine shop.

A lot of people gathered on the riverside street, and officials braved the rain to put out some remaining fires.

Zuo Lingquan Pegasus came outside the Tang Family wine shop, but saw that the wine shop’s door was closed and there were traces of fire on the windows. The original wine flags had been turned into charred cloth strips.

"Sister Tang?"

Zuo Lingquan flew up before dismounting, and jumped directly onto the roof of the restaurant, looking towards the backyard from the roof—the backyard was also a mess, the kitchen The bedroom in Hexi Wing was the most damaged, and the windows were all burned out.

Zuo Lingquan's face turned pale, he jumped from the roof, and was about to run into the bedroom to check, suddenly heard a cry of "Wow--" under the big laurel tree in the corner of the yard.

The cry was extremely sad, with a bit of husky and trembling.

It's as if I have been depressed for too long and dare not speak out, and suddenly I see the life-saving straw, and my heartstring relaxes instantly.

Although the cry was very sad and hoarse, Zuo Lingquan still heard Tang Jingxun's voice.

He quickly looked towards Tang Jingxun, who was soaked under the laurel tree. His face was weeping beauty and crying, he lifted the thin quilt wrapped around his body, got up and ran over and grabbed him directly. Sleeve; there is no trace of blood on the face, the whole person is shiver coldly, not standing still, sitting directly on the ground.

"wu wu ……"

Zuo Lingquan hurriedly supported Tang Jingxun's shoulder with his hand, but the touch on his hand was slippery. I looked at it through lightning and found that Tang Jingxun is only wearing a white dress and pajamas.

The white coat is already light and thin. After being watered by heavy rain for a long time, it has been almost transparent and stuck to the skin, and you can clearly see the yellow belly of the goose under the coat.

The white pajama pants are not much better. They are glued tightly to the body, almost transparent, showing the outline of camel toe.

How can Zuo Lingquan think about other things? After a glance, he hurriedly took off his outer robe and wrapped it around Tang Jingxun's body, softly comforting:    "Tang, don't be afraid, it's okay It’s okay..."

"wu wu ......Little Zuo ......"

Tang Jingxun was just meditating. When he was awakened by thunder and noticed the fire, the boudoir was already filled with fire sea, I was frightened at the time. It was instinct to be able to rush out of the fire under the bedding.

At this time, Zuo Lingquan was clenched tightly by the sleeve, sobbing and not even speaking clearly. Obviously, he hadn't recovered.

Zuo Lingquan knew that Tang Jingxun had experienced a fire when she was born, which burned almost the entire Riverfacing Lane and killed many people. Her mother was also frightened by the fire and died indirectly.

The people of Riverfacing Lane, even after more than two decades, still have lingering fears about the fire. It is not surprising that Tang Jingxun was scared into this look.

At this time, Zuo Lingquan can only help Tang Jingxun to hide under the eaves of the unburnt front house, wrap her tightly in the robe, and comfort her softly:    "It's okay, it's okay Now, it’s raining heavily, and the fire has gone out..."

"Chiji——"

Zuo Lingquan while speaking, he hadn’t wrapped his robe tightly yet, and suddenly heard Tang Jingxun’s Under the placket, there was the sound of birds.

He looked down and found that Tang Jingxun’s belly was moving, and then a black briquettes drilled out from the collar of the coat, and the white fluff on the chest of his head was almost scorched by the fire. It looks like I lost a whole circle...
