Chapter 44 Return to the Nest

The clouds open and the sun come out, and the wind and rain stop.

When the sun rose, the light red glow instantly spread away, like a warm rhyme, shining on the cold body of the two sisters and brothers who were drenched in the rain all night. It felt extremely comfortable, just like basking in the warm sun in winter.

However, the sun is still the scorching sun in the hot summer. Before long, it emits a scorching glow, making the two sisters feel like they are in a stove.

The two brothers flew with their swords and shuttled between the red glow. In the eyes of the people below, they were like high sword immortals.

At this moment, the sticky mud on Liang Xiangling's face has been dried by the sun, showing small cracks. Yan Ji looked at her sister's "beautiful face" and sometimes laughed in a low voice. Before long, Liang Xiangling also felt the strangeness of her younger brother and frowned and asked, "Brother, what are you always laughing at? What's so funny?"

"I..." Yan Ji thought for a moment, suppressed her smile and said, "I was thinking, why did you suddenly fall into the puddle when you carried me on your back last night? Do you also want to experience the taste of pig bathing?

When Liang Xiangling heard his words, her voice actually lowered and said slowly, "When I said that you were like the pig in our family, I remembered what happened when I was a child!"

Yan Ji asked, "Sister, did what you experienced when you were a child make you sad and sad? When you think of those things, you fall into a puddle?"

Liang Xiangling shook her head and said slowly, "It's not those things that make me sad, but I remember what happened at that time now, and then I can't help but feel sad when I can't go back to my previous life."

Yan Ji listened to the senior sister's story and was stunned for a moment. He seemed to be touched by this sentence, but he soon regained his calm expression and asked Liang Xiangling, "Sister, have you ever raised pigs in your family?"

Liang Xiangling nodded and said, "Yes! I used to have two pigs at home. Every summer, my father released them and asked them to find a puddle to bathe, just like you rolled in the puddle last night.

When Liang Xiangling said further, her voice was a little lower: "At that time, my family was very poor and there was no meat to eat, and I was greedy. I wanted to eat meat all day long, so I shouted with my father to kill the pig and eat it. However, those two pigs are raised for money. Dad is reluctant to kill them, so he has been coaxing me and telling me to kill them after raising them. Then I have been looking forward to the two pigs growing up and waiting to eat pork, so I watched them every day, mowing them and feeding them, and going to the restaurant in the town with my father to come back with leftovers to feed the pigs. In winter, add hay to the pigsty, and in summer, drive them to the puddle to bathe, hoping that they will grow up quickly.

However, later I found that raising pigs is the same as raising dogs. Over time, there will be feelings. Gradually, I don't want my father to kill them. I want to keep them all the time and ride them as donkeys! However, of course, Dad will not keep them all the time. Pigs are killed and sold. In the end, they are sold to butchers to kill. After I knew this, I felt very sad, and then cried and scolded my father. Since then, I had no pigs to ride and play with. The more I thought about it, the more angry I stole and threw away the pig money. I ran to the town and threw a lot of pig dung at the butcher's meat stall. Later, I... I was rewarded with several bamboo poles by my father, which almost killed me.

Liang Xiangling finished a paragraph and turned around and asked Yan Ji, "Brother, were I stupid at that time?"

Yan Ji looked at the muddy face. What else did he think except laughing? He resisted a smile and answered her, "Yes, it's quite stupid."

Liang Xiangling noticed that Yan Ji's smile was quite strong and frowned and asked, "Is it that funny?"

Yan Ji nodded with a smile and said, "I think you were very powerful when you were a child. First, you stole the money from your family and threw away, and then threw pig dung on other people's meat stalls. I suddenly admire you. Sister, you are really amazing."

Liang Xiangling said puzzledly, "I...even so? Is that really funny? It's just that it was naive at that time.

Yan Ji shook his head and said, "It's not naive! It's you who are kind. You have a deep relationship with the pig. You two suddenly have a life-and-death separation. Of course, you will be very sad!"

When Liang Xiangling heard this sentence, she felt that there was nothing wrong with Yan Ji's words, but after thinking about it, she found that it was a little strange. She hit Yan Ji's chest with her elbow and said angrily, "Brother bastard, why does this sound so awkward? In fact, that pig refers to you. If you die one day, I will laugh happily!"

Yan Ji also confessed and said, "What about me!"

With that, he seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly said to Liang Xiangling, "Senior sister, when we return to Tianzhu Mountain, Shimen, shall we raise two more pigs? Anyway, you like to drive pigs to puddles to take a bath, and you also like to ride pigs like donkeys and mules, as you wish. But I won't sell the pig. I'll kill it for you when I grow up. Sister, if you are reluctant to kill, just kill one, and leave another head for you to be a horse!"

"Yes!" Yan Ji suddenly clapped his hands and smiled, "If a pig is left, and the other pig is not accompanied by friends, won't it be lonely? Let's just raise three pigs, kill one to eat, leave one male and one female and two pigs, and let them be husband and wife! Then we each have a pig to use as a mount!"

Liang Xiangling saw that the little brother was still talking like a child. He was extremely naive and was amused by him. He bent down and held his stomach and smiled for a while. He barely stood up on his shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother! It's the first time I've found that you can be so funny when you talk! It's not like the old idiot. OK! OK! When we return to Tianzhu Mountain, we will build a few pigsty and raise two pigs, but the pig will be handed over to you. I don't bother to raise it now. It's very dirty.

“......”

Between the two brothers talking and laughing, they have come to the place where the disciples of Taiqing Palace are stationed in Xiaoxiang, north of Yueyang City on the west coast of Dongting Lake, there is an abandoned Taoist temple, which is no longer inhabited. The Taiqing Palace and his party cleaned up the abandoned Taoist temple and temporarily stationed in this Taoist temple. This Taoist temple is in disrepair, looks dilapidated, and most of the wall has fallen, but it can barely be used as a shelter from the wind and rain.

Liang Xiangling took Yan Ji into the main gate of the Taoist temple. In front of the blue-gray stone stairs outside the door, there stood a man and a woman and two young disciples guarding them. Both of them looked around 20 years old. The handsome men and women stood in front of the door like a golden boy and jade girl. They were dressed in the blue shirt and white clothes of the disciples of Taiqing Palace, and they looked full of energy.

The two gatekeeper disciples saw a pair of young men and women who were dirty and covered with dirt coming over. After looking at them for a long time, they finally recognized that the woman with a dirty face was Liang Xiangling. Suddenly, they saw this beautiful woman who looked like this and almost laughed there. Fork.

Liang Xiangling realized something and looked at her white dress covered with mud. She was extremely ugly. She thought they were laughing at this. At that moment, she thought about going back to the room to change into clean clothes. She ignored them and hummed and walked in quickly.

Yan Ji almost gritted her teeth behind her and couldn't help laughing. Now how dare Yan Ji tell her sister that there was mud on her face? I'm afraid Liang Xiangling knew that the boy didn't tell her about this until now. She thought that the boy deliberately saw her make a fool of herself, and most of them would be so angry that they would twist the boy's head off.

Thinking like this, Yan Ji really began to worry about his "little life" and hurriedly said to Liang Xiangling, "Senior sister, go back to take a shower and change your clothes! Although there is nothing on your face, your hair is stained with a lot of mud. Go back and take a shower quickly.

Liang Xiangling nodded and said, "I said what the two guys at the door are laughing at! I'll find a room for you first. You can also take a shower and change into clean clothes. You haven't slept all night. Go to bed first!"

Yan Ji nodded and answered.

At this time, Zhang Linger came over. She rested all night before she could walk. It seemed that the wound on her leg had healed.

Zhang Linger saw the two dirty brothers and frowned and said, "Sister Liang and Brother Yan, are you all right? Just come back safely! Look at how dirty you look. Go take a shower and change your clothes. I saw that it rained heavily last night. I guessed that you must be so dirty, so I burned hot water for you.

Zhang Linger's eyes stayed on Liang Xiangling's face, stunned for a moment and said, "Sister Liang Xiangling, on your face..."

"Cough!" Yan Ji immediately coughed twice, interrupted Zhang Linger's words, and wincled at her, signaling her not to go down.

Zhang Linger naturally didn't know what her brother Yan blinked at her desperately, but later she seemed to think of something and gradually lowered her head, but she blushed.

Liang Xiangling was not in the mood to care about why Zhang Linger suddenly blushed and asked her, "Sister Zhang, what's wrong with my face?"

Zhang Linger said "Oh" and replied, "Senior sister, on your face..."

"Sister Zhang!" Yan Ji came forward and took Zhang Linger's hand and interrupted, "I'm covered with mud. It's very uncomfortable. Tell me where the kitchen is. I'll take some hot water to take a shower first."

Zhang Linger's delicate and jade hand was tightly held by Yan Ji, and her beautiful face turned redder, but she did not back. The other finger was not far away and said to Yan Ji in an almost inaudible voice: "There! That's the kitchen, and there is boiling water in the pot.

Yan Ji wanted her to take herself to the kitchen so that she could leave in front of her sister and not expose this matter. But she pointed out the location of the kitchen, and the plan failed, but Yan Ji soon came up with another plan: "Sister Zhang, take me to find some pots, towels and so on. No, I know where those things are!"

With that, regardless of Zhang Linger's reaction, he took Zhang Linger's hand and walked her to the kitchen.

In this way, Yan Ji temporarily escaped from the "danger" and sent Zhang Linger to help him find towels and basins, and cheated Zhang Linger away from his senior sister. At this time, Liang Xiangling also went back to the house to take a shower and change clothes. Yan Ji should have been completely out of the "danger".

Zhang Linger found an empty room for Yan Ji, and personally found a clean dress for Yan Ji and asked him to change it after taking a shower. That dress is the clothing of the disciples of Taiqing Palace, with a blue shirt inside and a white robe. The vest of the robe is also embroidered with a picture, which is the peaks of Tianzhu Mountain where the Taiqing Palace is located. Above the peaks is a Taiji figure, which is the symbol of the Taiqing Palace.
