Chapter 380(1/3)
The love of a man and his concubine
The attic is suspended between the sea of clouds, and the moon rises quietly from the sky.
The dim light illuminated the window paper, and the man and woman in the room did not realize that it was already night, and the soft whispers still echoed on the bed.
Zuo Lingquan, dressed in a white robe, sat sideways beside a canopy bed carved with hollow peach petals, looking at the stunning beauty beside him with a smile in his eyes.
Cui Yingying, wearing a dark green skirt, sat on the inside of the bed, her legs bent and crossed, resting on her round buttocks full of tension.
Cui Yingying tossed and turned on the bed at first, her skirt was a little messy, revealing the homemade stockings at her ankles, and her crystal clear bare feet were faintly visible; her white feet arched slightly with the tension in her heart, and then gently let go.
Cui Yingying's hands were curled up on her chest. She had just hurriedly closed her shirt, and one of the buttons on her collar was askew. From the side, she could see a touch of fair skin that attracted people's imagination; her cheeks also unknowingly showed the color of February.
A peach blossom-like blush, from the red lips to the corners of the eyes, full of spring color.
But Cui Yingying didn't notice these strange changes in her clothes and demeanor at all. She just dodges her eyes and has nothing to say, suppressing the messy thoughts in her heart to prevent the man in front of her from seeing the love in her heart.
"Is it because of me?"
A gentle voice sounded from the man's mouth and reached Cui Yingying's ears.
With Zuo Lingquan's question, his attitude obviously changed from awe towards the elders to ridicule towards the beauty.
Cui Yingying's mind was slightly shaken, and she suddenly sobered up. Then she realized that the two of them were just chatting, and Zuo Lingquan asked her why she came out. What she was thinking was because of the man in front of her...
Seeing that Zuo Lingquan was as bold as ever when he teased her, and showed those gentle eyes that were very 'dangerous' to her, Cui Yingying knew that she couldn't handle it today, so she subconsciously leaned back:
"Don't dream. I just wanted to relax because I had a quarrel with Shangguan Yutang. The reason why I followed you is because you promised to treat me and Shangguan Yutang equally. Since you treat us equally, I naturally have to protect you just like Shangguan Yutang."
…”
I muttered and explained a lot.
But in the end, wasn't it because of Zuo Lingquan that he made this far trip?
Zuo Lingquan sat next to him and quietly studied Cui Yingying's nervous expression. He could clearly hear her heartbeat, and her warm breathing that was sometimes urgent and slow could also be heard clearly. There was a smile in his eyes, and he sat closer:
"Not because you like me?"
"...?"
Cui Yingying paused for a moment. She was already in a state of confusion. Such a direct attack left her with no energy to deal with it. After thinking about it, she just said:
"Sigh~Are you worthy?"
Zuo Lingquan was naturally not angry. He sat on the bedside and sighed quietly:
"Actually, I know I'm not worthy..."
"Um?"
Cui Yingying blinked, feeling that she had said something too harshly, so she hesitated and continued:
"I'm not looking down on you, um... What I mean is that I am the elder of Yutang's generation. We are of different generations. How could I like you... But with your talent and character, you are not unworthy.
The woman..."
Zuo Lingquan shook his head and said with a smile:
"I'm not feeling sorry for myself. What I mean is that I'm not worthy of Sister Yingying taking the initiative to like me 'yet'. Sister Yingying has a profound deeds; her achievements for the people can be matched by only a handful of people in the world; her character and appearance are also incomparable.
Picky. For such a perfect heavenly fairy to make Sister Yingying take the initiative to like her, she must be at least as powerful as Patriarch Shangguan."
Cui Yingying liked this very much - in fact, her master had said back then that if Shangguan Yutang were a man, there would be no quarrel between her and Yutang. I'm afraid they would have been deeply in love from the first day they met.
Cui Yingying didn't like this saying when she was a child, but after being on the top of the mountain for thousands of years, she discovered that it was true that "one sight of Yutang is a mistake for life" - after meeting such a domineering woman like Shangguan Yutang, all men in the world, without exception, became "sissies"
', where can I get into her eyes.
Cui Yingying's eyes softened a little: "It's good that you know... But you have a great mind, and your future achievements may not be worse than Yutang, you are just still young."
"Haha..." Zuo Lingquan continued: "Now, in terms of moral conduct, I am far worse than Sister Yingying; in terms of merit, my greatest contribution to the people is that when I was the young master of the landlord's family, I didn't tease him with a bitch.
A good little daughter-in-law..."
"laugh--"
Cui Yingying listened very seriously at first, but she didn't hold back at the last sentence, covering her mouth and laughing out loud.
As a result, when his upper body moved, the gap in his collar became wider, attracting Zuo Lingquan's peek.
She looked down and realized something was wrong. She quickly covered her breasts and glared at Zuo Lingquan again.
Zuo Lingquan looked away and rekindled his emotions:
"My contributions to the righteous path are even more numerous. The only ones I can mention are that I defeated the secret plots of foreign tribes in northern Xinjiang. Sister Yingying was the main force. Later, when I arrived in Huajunzhou, Luojian Mountain was a private
To become famous, Sister Yingying is also helping Qianqiu Yuefu..."
Cui Yingying heard this and interjected: "The Lord of Luojian Mountain also helped me. I have been setting up the formation behind my back for a long time. Although it was not used, I got the idea... I don't mean to take credit, I just want to tell you.
"
"Really?" Zuo Lingquan smiled and nodded: "Sister Yingying is interested. Later, the ancestor of Shuangfeng was a private murderer and treasure hunter. Relying on sister Yingying's help can't be said to be a meritorious service; to say that I am committed to the right path.
The only contribution I made was defeating two big jade-level demons yesterday..."
Cui Yingying was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "There was only one Xuanyin Snake Ancestor yesterday, where did the second one come from?"
When Zuo Lingquan said this, his eyes naturally showed a bit of pride:
"Then there should be three. After killing the big snake yesterday, Qiutao and I went to clear out the weeds. As a result, we ran all the way to Xuefeng Mountain and met the Snow Wolf King and another big snake..."
"Um?!"
Cui Yingying was shocked and her expression became serious: "Is it Lang Hai, the leader of the Snow Lang Mountains?"
"That should be it. It's covered in white hair and looks similar to a Samoyed..."
"Sa what?"
"Um...it seems to be the name of a kind of local dog. I don't remember where it comes from. Anyway, I met it yesterday..."
Zuo Lingquan recounted the thrilling fighting process last night - of course, he only briefly mentioned what was going on with Miss Qiu and Ling Ye in his arms, and did not dare to go into details.
Cui Yingying thought that the fight was over after killing the Xuanyin Snake Ancestor last night, but she didn't expect that there would be such a big scene later. She was frightened when she heard this, and finally lectured with some annoyance:
"I told you not to pursue me too much, why are you acting so recklessly? I'm not here, what should I do if something happens to you?"
Zuo Lingquan patted the long sword on his waist and said seriously:
"The reason why I say that I am not worthy of being liked by Sister Yingying is because now I need Sister Yingying and Ancestor to stand behind me in order to be able to carry the burden. I have practiced swordplay since I was a child in order to become the support of those around me.
Instead of relying on the people around you.”
Zuo Lingquan looked at Cui Yingying who was a little scared:
"Sister Yingying is now higher in moral conduct than me, has greater achievements than me, and has a higher status in the Immortal family than me. She must protect me as an elder. For these reasons, Sister Yingying is embarrassed to say openly that she even likes me.
Exit, this is not sister Yingying’s problem, but my failure as a man...
... Yesterday and before, I was always thinking that one day, Sister Yingying and... cough - and Lingye and the others could say openly: 'This is my man' without worrying about outsiders.
view."
Cui Yingying pursed her lips. Although she didn't want to admit this, it did speak to her heart - she and Zuo Lingquan actually had no teachers. Due to the barrier of seniority, they didn't dare to admit what they were thinking, just because she was
The Lord of the Nine Sects is afraid that the old cow will eat the tender grass and cannot hold his head up in front of fellow Taoists...
Zuo Lingquan sat up, faced the beauty in front of him, and said seriously:
"Now that I am letting sister Yingying hesitate, it only means that I am not good enough. What I have to do is to continue to fight until the day when sister Yingying can say 'this is my man' without any scruples; instead of letting Ying
Sister Ying has wronged herself and endured the pressure of worldly opinions to marry a junior like me. These are my mother's words and my own thoughts."
Zuo Lingquan's eyes were blazing, confident and resolute, just like his sword, with firmness and perseverance that no one could doubt.
Cui Yingying looked at those eyes, pursed her lips, and was speechless - she knew that Zuo Lingquan could do it, sooner or later, and she would be proud to say that sentence.
This is my man'; even if she is pretending to be an ostrich and dragging it out for a day, she still can't deny what she thinks in her heart...
If she really waits until that day before she is willing to admit it openly, will it seem too vain...
What is the difference between a man who is willing to reveal his feelings until he grows up, and a snobbish woman who can only share riches and honors but cannot share hardships...
Thoughts kept flashing through Cui Yingying's mind, and her eyes became a little hesitant. After a little hesitation, she said softly:
"What are you talking about...I...I am not a woman who cares about face. If I like you, I will still marry you even if you have no cultivation. If I don't like you, nothing you say will be of any use..."
Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly.
Cui Yingying's eyes dodge, she thought for a while and then said:
"Well... my innocence has been stained by you, and I can't marry anyone else... You can become an upright man in the future, and you won't make it too difficult for me in front of fellow Taoists. I am naturally happy. After all, I don't care about other people's opinions, and my disciples and grandchildren don't care either.
; But in private, as long as the matter doesn’t spread out, I’m actually not that unkind. After all, only the two of us know about it..."
The soft words and hesitant words reveal only one meaning - it can still be secretly accepted in private.
This is considered a confession.
Zuo Lingquan raised the corners of his lips and smiled. He had been waiting for this sentence for who knows how long.
Seeing that Sister Yingying finally relaxed, Zuo Lingquan naturally stopped being polite. He stepped forward, hugged Cui Yingying's waist, and lowered his head towards her charming face.
