Chapter 11 Yasao Fourth
Lan's Immortal Mansion is located in a deep mountain outside Gusu City.
In the well-proportioned waterside pavilion garden, there are long stretches of white walls and black tiles shrouded in mist all year round. Being in it is like being in a fairyland and a sea of clouds. The morning is filled with mist and the morning light is hazy. It goes well with its name - "I don't know where the clouds are deep".
The mountains are quiet, the people are quiet, and the heart is like still water. Only the sound of bells can be heard from the high buildings.
Although it is not Jialan, it has a lonely cold mountain Zen feel.
This loneliness was suddenly broken by a long howl, which made many disciples and disciples who were reading and practicing swords in the morning tremble and couldn't help but look towards the mountain gate where the sound came from.
Wei Wuxian was crying while hugging the donkey in front of the mountain gate. Lan Jingyi said, "Why are you crying! It was you who said you liked Hanguang-Jun. Now that I have brought you back, why are you crying!"
Wei Wuxian frowned.
After a night in Dafan Mountain, he had no chance to summon Wen Ning again, nor did he have a chance to explore why Wen Ning lost consciousness, let alone why he reappeared in the world, only to be brought back by Lan Wangji.
When he was young, he and other children from other families were sent to the Lan family to study for three months, and he experienced firsthand the dullness and boredom of the Gusu Lan family. He was still frightened by his family's more than 3,000 family rules densely engraved with disciplinary stones.
Lala Lala Lala was taken captive to the mountain just now. When he passed by the discipline stone wall, he saw that there were another thousand carved on it. Now there are more than four thousand. Four thousand!
Lan Jingyi said: "Okay! Stop making noise, noisy making is prohibited in Yun Shen I don't know!"
It was precisely because he didn't want to go into the depths of the clouds that he made such a loud noise!
After dragging it in, it will be difficult to get out again. Back then, the disciples of each family were given a passable jade token, which they wore on their bodies to be able to come and go freely. Otherwise, they would not be able to cross the barrier of Yun Shen. More than ten years have passed.
, the defense will only become tighter, not looser.
Lan Wangji stood quietly in front of the mountain gate, turning a deaf ear and watching with cold eyes. When Wei Wuxian's voice became quieter, he said, "Let him cry. When he is tired of crying and can't make any sound, drag him in."
Wei Wuxian hugged the donkey and cried even more sadly.
Bitter! Being whipped by Zidian, all suspicions should have been cleared. He was in a daze for a moment, and since his mouth has always been frivolous and fond of teasing, he casually disgusted him. Little did he know that Lan Zhan would not follow the same path as before.
Come on. What is the truth behind this? Is it possible that after so many years, his cultivation has become so much higher, but his mind has become narrower?
Wei Wuxian said, "I like men. There are so many beautiful men in your family, I'm afraid I won't be able to control them."
Lan SiZhui reasoned with him: "Master Mo, Lord Hanguang brought you back for your own good. If you don't come with us, Sect Master Jiang will not let it go. After all these years, he has captured you and brought you back to the Jiang family.
Countless people were tortured at Lotus Pier, and no one has ever been released."
Lan Jingyi said: "That's right. You haven't seen the methods of Sect Master Jiang, have you? They are very vicious..." At this point, he remembered that "you can't tell the difference between people behind their backs". He took a peek at Lan Wangji and saw Han Guang
You didn't mean to punish, so you boldly muttered: "It's all due to the evil trend brought by the Yiling Patriarch. There are too many people who follow his tricks and do not practice seriously. This Jiang Sect Master is also suspicious.
Catch them all, can you catch them all? I won’t pick a single one, just like you, the virtue of playing the flute... haha."
This "ha" is worth a thousand words. Wei Wuxian felt that it was necessary to defend himself: "Well, actually, you may not believe it, but I usually play the flute pretty well..."
Before he finished his defense, several cultivators in white stepped out from the gate.
These people were wearing the school uniforms of the Lan family. All of them were plain as snow, and their belts were light and airy. The leader was tall and tall. In addition to a sword, there was also a white jade flute hanging on his waist. Lan Wangji saw this and bowed his head slightly.
He showed his courtesy, and the visitor returned the favor. He looked at Wei Wuxian and said with a smile, "Wangji never brings guests to his home. Who is this?"
This man and Lan Wangji stood opposite each other, as if they were looking into a mirror. However, Lan Wangji's eyes were extremely light, as light as glass, while his eyes were a darker color that was gentler and gentler.
It was Lan Xichen, the head of the Lan family. He was worthy of being the head of the sect. When he saw Wei Wuxian holding a donkey, he didn't look unnatural at all.
The Gusu Lan family has always been recognized as a family with many beautiful men. The twins of this generation are particularly outstanding. Although the two brothers are not twins, their appearance is eighty-nine times similar, making it difficult to tell them apart.
Definitely superior. However, one color, two styles. Lan Xichen is gentle and gentle, with a gentle style, but Lan Wangji is too cold and solemn, rejecting people thousands of miles away, and loses his amiability. Therefore, he is working as an immortal sect.
In the ranking of young men from aristocratic families, the former is ranked first and the latter is ranked second.
With a smile on his face, Wei Wuxian let go of the donkey and stepped forward to greet him. The Gusu Lan family values the superiority of elders and the younger. If he talks nonsense to Lan Xichen, he will definitely be beaten down by the Lan family with sticks. Who knows?
Just as Zhi was about to show off his skills, Lan Wangji glanced at him and his upper and lower lips couldn't be separated.
Lan Wangji turned around and continued to talk to Lan Xichen seriously: "Brother, are you going to see Lian Fangzun again?"
Lan Xichen nodded: "There is a small talk meeting at Jinlintai."
Wei Wuxian couldn't open his mouth and returned to Hua Luzi angrily.
He thought: Lianfangzun is the current head of the Jin family, Jin Guangyao, the only illegitimate son recognized by Jin Guangshan. In other words, he is his half-brother in the flesh. They are both illegitimate children, but they are completely different.
Mo Xuanyu slept on the floor in Mojiazhuang and ate leftovers, while Jin Guangyao sat in the highest position in the world of cultivation and controlled the world. Talks could be held whenever he wanted, and Lan Xichen could be invited if he wanted. The heads of the Jin and Lan families had a close personal relationship.
Not rumors.
Lan Xichen said: "My uncle wants to discuss with you the things you brought back from Mojiazhuang last time."
Hearing the words "Mojiazhuang", Wei Wuxian couldn't help paying attention, but his upper and lower lips parted. Lan Xichen lifted his silence and said to Lan Wangji: "It's rare for you to bring someone back and be like this."
Happy. You must treat your guests well, not like this."
Happy? Wei Wuxian took a closer look at Lan Wangji’s face.
How do you look so happy?!
After watching Lan Xichen leave, Lan Wangji said: "Drag him in."
Wei Wuxian was dragged alive into this place that he had sworn he would never set foot in again in this life. The Lan family's previous visitors were all prominent people, and there had never been guests like him. The juniors pushed and pushed him.
, they all thought it was fresh and fun. If it weren’t for the strict family rules, there would have been a lot of hip-hop along the way. Lan Jingyi said: "Hanguang-Jun, where are you dragging me to?"
Lan Wangji said: "Quiet room."
"...quiet room?!"
Wei Wuxian didn't know what was going on. Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to say anything.
That's the study and bedroom that Hanguang-Jun never lets anyone else in or out of...
The furnishings in the quiet room are very simple, without any superfluous things. The flowing clouds drawn with fine brushwork on the folding screen slowly float and change, and a piano table is placed across the screen. On the three-legged incense table in the corner, a hollow incense tripod emits light smoke.
, the whole room is filled with the cool scent of sandalwood.
Lan Wangji went to see his uncle to discuss business, and Wei Wuxian was pushed in. He walked forward, and Wei Wuxian stepped out with the back. He wandered around in the depths of the cloud for a short time, and as expected, there was no passing jade order.
Even if you climb a few feet high white wall, you will be immediately bounced off by the barrier and quickly attract nearby patrollers.
Wei Wuxian had no choice but to return to the quiet room.
When he encounters anything, he is not really anxious. He paces back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, believing that he will find a countermeasure sooner or later. The refreshing sandalwood scent is cold and deserted. Although it is not lingering, it has its own charm. He is leisurely
He thought to himself, "Lan Zhan smells like this. I guess it was when he was practicing piano here and sitting quietly, the fragrance got on his clothes."
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but lean closer to the incense table in the corner. When I leaned closer, I felt that the wooden board under my feet was obviously different from other places.
He was surprised and began to knock here and there.
He had done a lot of digging holes and digging graves during his lifetime, and he had no teacher to teach him how to do this. Within a moment, he was able to turn over a board.
Wei Wuxian was surprised by the discovery of a secret place in Lan Zhan's room, but he was even more surprised when he saw what was hidden inside.
After the wooden board was turned over, another mellow fragrance that was originally mixed with the sandalwood spread out, and five or six dark little jars were crowded into a small square cellar.
This Lan Wangji has indeed changed, even hiding the wine!
Yunshen was not aware of the prohibition on drinking. Because of this, they had a small fight when they first met, and Lan Zhan even knocked over a jar of "Emperor's Smile" that he brought up from the mountain.
After returning to Yunmeng from Suzhou, Wei Wuxian never had the chance to drink the "Emperor's Smile" brewed by a famous Gusu master. What is hidden here is the "Emperor's Smile". Unexpectedly, Lan Zhan is such a stickler for rules.
, a person who doesn’t drink alcohol will be discovered one day digging a hole in his room to hide alcohol. It’s really God’s way of reincarnation.
Wei Wuxian clicked his tongue and drank a bottle. He had a very good capacity for drinking and was addicted to alcohol. After thinking about it, he had to collect some interest after so many years, he drank another bottle. As he drank, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
, think carefully.
How difficult is it to pass through the jade tablet? There is a cold spring in Yun Shen, which has many miraculous effects. It is used by the male disciples of my family to practice bathing. People have to take off their clothes when bathing. Even if he takes off his clothes, he can still use it.
Is it possible to hold that jade tablet in your mouth?
Wei Wuxian clapped his hands and drank the last sip from the jar in his hand. He filled the jar with white water, sealed it and stuffed it back as it was, and put the wooden board on it. After finishing the work, he went out to find the jade tablet.
Although Yun Shen was burned down once during the "Sun Shooting Campaign", the layout after reconstruction was still the same as before. Wei Wuxian walked through the winding path through memory and soon found the patch of land.
A cold spring in a secluded place.
The gatekeepers guarding the spring are far apart. No one in the Lan family has ever done such a shameless thing as spying near the cold spring, and the fairies never use it, so the guard is not strict. It is easy to fool, and it is just convenient for Wei Wuxian to go there.
Shameless and extremely clever, on the white stone behind the overlapping orchid grass, there is a set of school uniforms, and someone has already arrived.
This set of school uniforms was folded so neatly that it was outrageous, like snow-white cubes of tofu, and even the forehead was rolled up meticulously. Wei Wuxian reached in and searched for the jade token, almost feeling a pity when he messed it up. He crossed the clumps of orchid grass.
, he glanced around the spring and suddenly fixed his gaze.
The water of the cold spring is bone-chilling, not as hot as the hot spring. It is not filled with heat and is charming to the eyes. Therefore, you can clearly see the upper body of the person in the spring with his back to him.
The person in the spring has a fair complexion, long black hair, wetly gathered on one side, and a smooth waist and back, graceful and powerful. In short, she must be a beauty.
But it was definitely not because Wei Wuxian was so shocked by watching a beautiful woman taking a bath that he couldn't look away. No matter how beautiful he was, he wouldn't really like men. It was actually the thing on the man's back that made him unable to look away.
Dozens of criss-crossing scars.
This is the mark left by the whip. In the Immortal Sect, the whip is used to punish the disciples who have made serious mistakes in the clan. Once applied, the marks will never fade away. Although Wei Wuxian has not been beaten by the whip,
He saw with his own eyes what Jiang Cheng had suffered. He couldn't make it fade away despite all his efforts. He would never misremember this kind of scar.
Usually one or two strokes with the whip is a serious lesson, enough for the punished to remember it for the rest of his life and not dare to do it again. There are at least thirty marks on this man's back. I don't know if he has committed some great treason.
Wrong, he was beaten like this.
But if he is really rebellious enough, why not just kill him and clean up the family?
The man in the spring turned around, and there was a clear mark under his collarbone, near his heart.
When he saw the brand, Wei Wuxian's surprise suddenly reached its peak.
Chapter completed!
