MTL - Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?-Chapter 26 26%
The next day, Ji Qingzhuo took Maomao back to his small yard. Of course, Shen Rongyu sent her back because she was still barefoot.
Shen Rongyu seemed to be somewhat resistant to bringing an extra donkey to step on his Snow Burying Sword.
Of course, Mao Mao didn't seem to want to stand on his Snow Burial Sword, trembling all four hooves, reluctantly.
In the end it was Ji Qingzhuo who dragged it up, Shen Rongyu glanced at the donkey with lowered eyes, but did not speak.
Shen Rongyu seemed to have something to do, sent her back and then left.
After returning to his familiar home, Ji Qingzhuo let go of his hanging heart.
She took Maomao back to the yard, and was about to go back to her room to catch up on sleep. At this time, the communication array under the kiosk in her yard seemed to sense someone coming back, and lit up.
Yu Sukong's face appeared in the formation, and he called Ji Qingzhuo: "Qingzhuo."
Ji Qingzhuo trotted over, Yu Sukong was still standing on the sea cliff, he stared at her.
"Was there an attack on Baishui Island last night?" Yu Sukong cut to the chase and asked directly, his brows were slightly frowned, looking worried.
"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo replied, since it happened, she didn't want to hide anything, "There was a person chasing me, I ran all the way to Senior Brother Xiaoyu, he disappeared, and then there were three soul chasing nails Fly toward us."
Ji Qingzhuo thought about her words, and she said slowly: "Senior brother Xiaoyu repelled the soul chasing nail."
"The soul-chasing nail needs to drink blood to rest. Two elders in Baishui Island were injured. Thanks to them going to the island to investigate the situation, that person was driven away, but Xuanyun Sect has not yet found his trace. "Yu Sukong explained, he sighed softly at Ji Qingzhuo, "I will ask other elders to strengthen the protective formation on Baishui Island."
"It was also my negligence. I was the only one living here before, so I wasn't afraid of these things." Yu Sukong comforted Ji Qingzhuo in a slow voice, "Qing Zhuo, you don't have to be too scared."
Ji Qingzhuo was stunned for a long time before he found a key word in Yu Sukong's words: "Master Yu, you mean the two elders?"
"Yeah." Yu Sukong nodded, and said the information circulated among the senior officials of Xuanyunzong today, which is somewhat different from the facts experienced by Ji Qingzhuo, "Duanhong told me that he sensed something special in the cave last night. His mana fluctuates, and the magic weapon he made himself, the 'Good and Evil Stone', can sense a trace of evil aura approaching around him, and he sees that the person who comes is not good, so he follows this aura and chases after it."
"Chasing all the way to Baishui Island, the evil aura disappeared. He searched in the forest, and then met Qianke who also sensed this negative energy. At this time, the two were targeted by the soul chasing nail. Injured." Yu Sukong looked at Ji Qingzhuo with slightly blue eyes and said, "They haven't found the source of this evil aura, because the inside of Xuanyunzong is very dangerous now, and we are afraid that some heretics will sneak into Xuanyunzong."
After Ji Qingzhuo finished listening, her expression was dull, as if she didn't understand much, but she knew that Yu Sukong was wrong, and no matter what kind of evil aura it was, the soul chasing nail was definitely released by Ye Duanhong or Jiang Qianke , which is exactly the same as the alarm given to her by the system.
It's all right now, and all the culprits have been pushed to the "evil breath that came from nowhere".
But can she tell the truth? She and Shen Rongyu worked together to make the soul chasing nail back, which was already beyond the strength that a new disciple and Jindan disciple should have. Both she and Shen Rongyu... have secrets that cannot be known to outsiders.
Seeing Ji Qingzhuo's confused look, Yu Sukong comforted her: "Qingzhuo, after the protective formation is deployed, you don't have to worry about it on Baishui Island. As for the pursuit of this mysterious evil aura, we will investigate it."
Ji Qingzhuo couldn't help it anymore, she asked: "Master Yu, what is that evil aura doing on Baishui Island?"
"Of course it's because of Rong Yu, maybe you just bumped into him by chance." Yu Sukong had already considered in his mind, such an act of sneaking into the orthodox sect and sabotaging it from the inside was a bit like what the frightening desertion could do back then.
As we all know, the one that Huang Cai hates the most is the royal family of Dongshan. Back then, the Shen family line was slaughtered by him. Shen Rongyu is the only blood descendant left behind by the Dongshan royal family—he has a very pure Dongshan royal bloodline, and he has a strong resonance with the family token, which no one can pretend.
Huang Xi has been imprisoned, there is no possibility of escape, and it may be his fans who did this.
Yu Sukong told Ji Qingzhuo her guess, and Ji Qingzhuo was dumbfounded again. She scratched her head, why did Shen Rongyu get involved?
The soul chasing nail was here to kill her, and had nothing to do with Shen Rongyu, but it seems that the elders of Xuanyunzong now believe in the conclusion Yu Sukong just said, so what can explain her soft words?
As a person from another world, it is impossible for her to have some strange blood that is hated by others, right?
Yu Sukong also said that he would give her some magic weapons for self-defense, so he temporarily cut off contact, but the worry lingering on his eyebrows did not dissipate.
There is no class today, Shen Rongyu asked her for leave, Ji Qingzhuo yawned, climbed back to his bed, hugged the quilt and began to think about it.
She couldn't figure it out by herself, so she asked the system: "System, why did there have an extra evil aura that disturbed the sight last night?"
"I'm just a love system, what can I know?" The system is even worse than her, "But those two elders who went back last night made up a set of lies, host, you never thought about the evil Is the aura they fabricated?"
"Oh, that's right." Ji Qingzhuo slapped herself on the forehead, temporarily attributing the matter to Ye Duanhong and Jiang Qianke, in order to cover up their behavior, they made up an unwarranted evil aura and held all the blame go there.
However, she didn't know that no matter how high the status of Ye Duanhong and Jiang Qianke in the sect was, the sect head and Yu Sukong would not rashly believe their empty words.
Ye Duanhong presented his blackened good and evil stone—yes, this wonderful magic weapon is a one-time use item, and presented it to Yin Muchen, the head of the Xuanyun Sect. The color of black is pure, indicating that the aura it senses is extremely evil.
However, this is something that the elders of Xuanyunzong have to consider. A new disciple like Ji Qingzhuo can't understand the inside story at all.
In the afternoon, Elder Qiao Shu came to cast a protective formation on Baishui Island, and Shen Rongyu also came, because this formation is a restriction, and the two disciples living in it need to agree on a formula for entering.
This thing is similar to a modern combination lock. After Qiao Shu arranged the formation, he turned his back and moved away a little, letting them discuss the formula by themselves.
"What formula does Zhuozhuo want?" Shen Rongyu turned his head sideways, looking into her eyes and said.
Ji Qingzhuo's eyes are actually beautiful, clear and flawless, like a sweet mountain spring.
But Ji Qingzhuo turned her eyes away, she had no creativity and couldn't think of any subtle formulas.
She said to Shen Rongyu: "Brother Xiaoyu, think about it."
"Okay." Shen Rongyu nodded slightly in agreement.
He entered seven words into the forbidden formula - "Brother Xiaoyu, think about it", the movements were so smooth that Ji Qingzhuo didn't even have time to stop it.
"Senior Brother Xiaoyu, how can this be used as a formula to undo the restriction?" Ji Qingzhuo watched helplessly as the last piece of the protective formation in front of him seemed to be put together, and the only gap began to close.
"You said it." The corners of Shen Rongyu's lips curled up slightly, and he said to Ji Qingzhuo confidently.
Ji Qingzhuo still wants to say something more, because this formula sounds too shameful, she can just say it herself, does Shen Rongyu want to say it herself?
However, when Qiao Shu saw that the formation formula was set up, he walked over, with his hands behind his back, and smiled slightly at the two of them: "Set up?"
"Elder Qiao, it's done." Shen Rongyu said politely.
"I went to a desolate mortal village a few days ago and brought back some flower seeds. I wanted to go back and study how to plant them, so I left first." After finishing the matter, Qiao Shu left.
But the formula "Brother Xiaoyu, think about it" cannot be changed.
"Senior Brother Xiaoyu." Ji Qingzhuo called Shen Rongyu, "This formula..."
"How about the formula?" Shen Rongyu raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, and he glanced at Ji Qingzhuo, "Is there any wrong word?"
Naturally, there was nothing wrong with these seven words, and Ji Qingzhuo could only smash the jar and say these seven words directly to the prohibition.
The restriction was immediately opened, and Shen Rongyu had the Snow Burial Sword hanging on his waist, and he just watched Ji Qingzhuo walk into the interior of Baishui Island.
"Senior Brother Xiaoyu, aren't you coming in?" Ji Qingzhuo asked curiously.
"I still have something to do, I have to leave first." Shen Rongyu said to her.
He turned around, Yujian flew into the air, and his figure disappeared in an instant.
The day I finally asked for leave passed in confusion and embarrassment, and there was still one day before the weekly rest time.
The morning class on the second day was Beast Control class, which was for the disciples to learn how to control spirit beasts. The reason why Yu Sukong chose this class for her was very simple, because he thought Xuanshuang Beast was very cute, and Ji Qingzhuo would also like it.
Since Ji Qingzhuo was kicked by the Xuanshuang Beast last time, he has had a shadow of this tall adolescent spirit beast.
The Xuanshuang Beast in front of him had a spirit control rope tied around its neck, standing in front of Ji Qingzhuo, taller than her when standing on all fours.
The Xuanshuang spirit beast is an ice-type spirit beast with ice-blue fur all over its body. In such a hot summer, raising one's hand to stroke its fur feels nice and cool to the touch.
Many disciples couldn't help stroking the fur of this cat-like spirit beast secretly, but Ji Qingzhuo didn't dare to reach out, she lowered her head and picked the ice spirit fruit in her basket.
Her Xuanshuang Beast didn't want to eat the Ice Spirit Fruit, but only wanted Ji Qingzhuo to touch it, because other Xuanshuang Beasts were touched by his disciples, so it leaned its head obediently.
Ji Qingzhuo was so frightened that he stuffed the ice spirit fruit in the basket into its mouth, the Xuanshuang Beast chewed and spit out the core.
At this time, Meng Yaolan, who was in the same class as Ji Qingzhuo, walked towards her holding the Xuanshuang beast assigned to her by one hand.
"Miss Ji." Meng Yaolan called her, and she remembered the news that had spread throughout the Xuanyun Sect, "A mysterious person came to your Baishui Island and released a soul chasing nail?"
"Ah?" Ji Qingzhuo held the basket in one hand, turned around, and responded. She thought, since everyone in Xuanyunzong said so, let's say so, and she has no room for explanation. , she has no evidence at all to prove that the target of that night was her.
So she nodded and said, "Yes."
Meng Yaolan blinked and asked, "Have the restrictions on Baishui Island been arranged?"
"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo lowered his head and replied.
"I think this matter is a bit strange." Meng Yaolan said softly, "Since they all said they wanted to attack Senior Brother Shen, why would you be involved?"
Ji Qingzhuo was taken aback for a moment, she was a little moved, finally someone questioned this fact.
"Miss Ji, the last formation you answered in my master's class is very dangerous." Meng Yaolan was taller than Ji Qingzhuo, so she lowered her head and seriously reminded Ji Qingzhuo, "There are many disciples and elders in the class. I have heard that you have perfectly solved this formation, it is one of the evil formations used by Huang Xie to persecute the world of cultivating immortals."
"Maybe, the mysterious person who came to Baishui Island that night was aimed at you and Senior Brother Shen... Or, it was just aimed at you..." Meng Yaolan expressed her analysis.
"Maybe." Ji Qingzhuo sighed helplessly.
She also didn't want to answer these questions, both formation and disassembly required strong mana support, so what's the point of her answering or not answering, she simply didn't have the ability to do things related to the formation.
Ji Qingzhuo thought of poor Mao Mao again, who was still waiting for the top-grade elixir to save him.
After she communicated with Meng Yaolan, she thought about perfunctory the Xuanshuang beast in front of her for a while, but when she turned her head, it ate all the ice fruit in her basket.
Ji Qingzhuo looked at the empty basket, then at the Xuanshuang Beast rolling on the ground, feeling a little helpless.
The test of this beast control class is to see whether the disciple's care can satisfy the Xuanshuang beast. Qu Ting, the elder of the beast control class, has a set of experience in observing the mood of the Xuanshuang beast.
These puberty Xuanshuang beasts are not very good-tempered. Miraculously, Ji Qingzhuo's Xuanshuang beast who succeeded in stealing the ice spirit fruit was particularly happy, because it not only enjoyed the delicious food, but also enjoyed the happiness of stealing it.
Both Ji Qingzhuo and Meng Yaolan got first grades, and the Xuanshuang Beast following Meng Yaolan was very proud and only willing to follow the strong, so it was happy enough to be able to follow behind Meng Yaolan.
So sometimes, the relationship between monks and spirit beasts is so wonderful. Moreover, before Ji Qingzhuo realized that Maomao needed a high-grade elixir, the beast control class was the only one other than Mu Ying's training class that could get a first-class pill. Waiting class.
After the class, the disciples left in twos and threes, and tomorrow is the day to "date" with Shen Rongyu.
The system cheered Ji Qingzhuo up: "Host, do you feel a little bit springy?"
Controlling the flywheel full of energy, Ji Qingzhuo replied doubtfully, "Why do I want to have a spring heart?"
"You want to attack Shen Rongyu!" The system reminded her bitterly.
"I'll attack him, as long as his heart sprouts, isn't that the case?" Ji Qingzhuo was puzzled.
She really doesn't understand the brain circuit of the system. Although Shen Rongyu is unlikely to be excited, she doesn't feel anything.
As a result, that night, before Shen Rongyu came to take her to practice, Ji Qingzhuo pulled out his few sets of clothes and asked the system, "System, which dress do you think looks better?"
Ji Qingzhuo's clothes are nothing more than three colors of black, white and gray, and the styles are also very simple. Fortunately, Ji Qingzhuo is a beauty, so he doesn't look disheveled when he wears them.
"It's all average." The system commented, "Host, you just need to bring your face."
Ji Qingzhuo patted his face in the mirror.
"Host, you just have a spring heart." The system ruthlessly exposes this fact.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Ji Qingzhuo blushed, and she decided to only wear black tomorrow.
She folded the dress she was going to wear tomorrow and put it next to the pillow, and not long after, Shen Rongyu came over.
This is the daily essential double cultivation...no...practice time.
Ji Qingzhuo regretted that she asked Shen Rongyu to help her practice for three hours a day, and every time she came down, she had a sore back and backache because of the too correct sitting posture.
Opening the door for Shen Rongyu, he stood under the moonlight, still with that perfect and gentle appearance.
In the room, Ji Qingzhuo obediently reached out to him, Shen Rongyu held her wrist, and tapped her remaining mana.
"Is the clockwork unwinding?" It's already here, he naturally wanted to tease Ji Qingzhuo.
"Clockwork..." Ji Qingzhuo bent his fingers, but his fingertips accidentally touched Shen Rongyu's wrist bone, and the pad of his index finger brushed the bulge on his wrist as if invisible.
She withdrew her hand like an electric shock, and finally remembered that she didn't use spells today, and she must save her pitiful mana.
Shen Rongyu didn't say anything, but started to help her absorb the spiritual energy normally.
Of course, in the second half of the practice, Ji Qingzhuo moved her buttocks, and she couldn't sit still. It was a very comfortable process to feel the spiritual energy pouring into the meridians during practice, but it was also very difficult to keep her back straight. .
Shen Rongyu tugged at her arm, and she couldn't sit still, so she fell directly into his arms.
"Zuozhuo, what are you doing for this crime?" Shen Rongyu asked her with lowered eyes.
Ji Qingzhuo's cheek was pressed against his chest, yes, the two of them were even closer last night, even without the heavy fabric on his chest.
She found that she was not very repulsed by his approach.
Maybe, just like this...Persist a little longer, and she will get used to it, Ji Qingzhuo thought so.
Lying stiffly in his arms, she began to think wildly until she entered the mysterious realm of deep cultivation again.
Since the last time when she carefully watched the bright light mixed in the blood-red aura belonging to Shen Rongyu, and the fragments flew towards her, she did not dare to carefully observe the situation on Shen Rongyu's side, her consciousness just shrank to her side little corner.
But Shen Rongyu is really not a good person, even when he was cultivating, his aura was extremely aggressive, and as Ji Qingzhuo receded, his aura was like wildly growing weeds, crowding out the cultivation space where the two blended.
Ji Qingzhuo's spiritual consciousness is pitiful but crowded in the corner. Shen Rongyu's aura has come to her today. Her spiritual consciousness is in a very strange state. She seems to be able to sense all the feelings that belong to the human body. There should be no entities.
Shen Rongyu's breath was bright red, rushing towards her like a swimming snake, Ji Qingzhuo wanted to hide, but she was entangled by him.
Perhaps the word "wrapped" was not used properly for spiritual consciousness, but Ji Qingzhuo felt that she was hugged by the whole of Shen Rongyu, and it was so tight that she couldn't break free.
She didn't know that in the two people's cultivation space belonging to the conscious level, only she could keep awake, and Shen Rongyu's aura was only driven by his subconscious, maybe he didn't even know how much he had done.
It's all just instinct.
Ji Qingzhuo closed her eyes and closed her vision, she could no longer see the red aura belonging to Shen Rongyu, this color hurt her eyes.
Shen Rongyu's breath slowly climbed up the back of her hand, as if he wanted to tie the roots here, he approached her, he wrapped her, the meandering red breath climbed up to the faint blue light, and spread out like a spider web , and even wanted to completely cover up that blue aura.
Just when Ji Qingzhuo was about to be swallowed up by him, his breath didn't completely occupy the space that belonged to her. His breath just rubbed against her cheek and rubbed against the side of her neck. It was very itchy and hooked. People, especially now that Ji Qingzhuo has cut off his vision, other feelings are even stronger.
She heard his, a soft gasp, a secret, small sound that became more pronounced the longer the vision-cutting darkness lasted.
Ji Qingzhuo felt that she might not be able to bear it anymore, that she might melt into this cultivation space.
Just when her consciousness was about to be swallowed by Shen Rongyu, the light suddenly lit up in front of her eyes, which was the warm orange light in her room.
She held Shen Rongyu's front collar tightly, raised her head, and saw Shen Rongyu's beautiful jawline.
"Zhuo Zhuo?" He stroked her cheek with a big palm, and his tone was slightly innocently confused, "What's wrong with you?"
Ji Qingzhuo's face was red, she stared at him wide-eyed, with water in her eyes, under surprise, she even forgot to avoid his eyes.
Shen Rongyu doesn't know?
If two people are sleeping on the same bed now, he will almost squeeze her out of bed, okay?
He actually asked her, what's wrong with you? Did he speak human language?
However, Ji Qingzhuo didn't dare to say it, she thought that the red breath and the bright fragments mixed in it must belong to his secret, if she said it, he would probably kill her to keep it secret.
With Shen Rongyu's appearance, it seems that he really doesn't know what happened in the cultivation space, otherwise he should have found out when the debris hit her.
She was a little ashamed, so she pushed his chest with both hands, retreated from his arms, and whispered: "It's nothing, summer is so hot."
It's all about cultivating immortals. The courtyard on Baishui Island naturally has spells to adjust the temperature, so how could it be hot.
Shen Rongyu straightened his clothes that had been crumpled by her. He knew Ji Qingzhuo's temper, so he didn't ask any more questions, but lowered his eyes slightly, and picked up the Snow Burying Sword that was on the table.
Before he left, he caught a glimpse of Ji Qingzhuo's clothes beside his pillow, which were neatly folded. After coming here so many times, he naturally knew the layout of Ji Qingzhuo's room. Normally, she would not put her clothes so preciously on the bed. pillow side.
Shen Rongyu remained silent, although he had doubts, he didn't ask.
Seeing him leave, Ji Qingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief, the system didn't say anything at this time, presumably only she knew what happened during the cultivation, otherwise the system would come out to tease her at this time.
She lowered her head and looked at her hands. In the cultivation space, the red, vine-like aura should slowly penetrate from the back of her hands to the side of her neck and behind her ears. She remembered the route very clearly.
Ji Qingzhuo rubbed the back of her hand, she bit her lip, and she didn't know who to tell about this, she would never tell the system about it, and let it have another reason to embarrass her.
She climbed into bed as usual, and when she was sleeping in the corner wrapped in a quilt, Ji Qingzhuo thought to herself, she shouldn't be very repulsed by this...
That is, she doesn't dislike being close to him. Could this be the self-cultivation of a raider?
Ji Qingzhuo thought wildly and fell asleep. She rarely dreamed and slept deeply, and woke up early the next day.
She still doesn't know what Shen Rongyu is going to do with her day, so it's impossible to really come to date her, a future villain shouldn't be so boring.
Thinking so, Ji Qingzhuo shook off the black dress that was placed beside her pillow, and put it on on her body. It was a very simple style, and there was a thick outer robe, so that when she didn't want to face other people's eyes , can quickly retract the face into the collar.
She straightened the hem of her clothes, faced the mirror again, and combed her hair with rubber bands, with her hair half-drapped and tied into a small bun behind her head.
Ji Qingzhuo's jewelry box is empty, she is not very good at dressing herself up, and she has no chance to decorate too brightly and beautifully.
She closed the empty jewelry box drawer again, and went out like this. It seemed no different from when she usually went to class, but there were still some subtle differences.
Ji Qingzhuo came all the way to the shore of Baishui Island, and Shen Rongyu was already waiting here.
