Chapter 360 Seeing Through
Chapter 360 Seeing Through
Last time we talked about Qu Xia being kicked out of her home and wanting to live a rural life with Li Yi. Will this happen? Let's read on.
Li Yi slept until noon. He reached out and found that Qu Xia beside him was gone. He got up and went out. There was no one in the yard except Mo Bai, who was lying on the ground and yawning. Li Yi asked, "Where is she?"
"I'm going to the backyard to feed the silkworms!"
Li Yi walked to the silkworm house in the backyard with a puzzled look on his face. Seeing Qu Xia really feeding mulberry leaves to the silkworms, he was surprised and said, "My wife is really good at raising silkworms?"
"Of course. Didn't I tell you that I spent five years in the mountains learning from my master how to raise silkworms?"
"What about your Kung Fu?"
"That was just for fun. My real skill lies in raising silkworms. The silkworms I raise not only produce good silk, but can even produce silk of different colors according to my needs. Isn't that amazing?"
Li Yi asked in confusion: "Using one's own spiritual power to drive silkworms to spin silk, it feels a bit like the method of Wu Gu Cult. What's the name of your sect?"
"In the Heavenly Silkworm Sect, they all call me Master Lan Die. By the way, my husband said he wants to be a tyrant. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help him?"
Li Yi clapped his hands and said, "I really need your Qu family's help. I'll go draw a sketch."
"Go ahead, my husband. I'll go find you after I finish feeding the silkworms."
Li Yi went back to his room, took out a pen and paper, and began to write, draw, and mark. After a few minutes, the blueprint of the stand was finished. Qu Xia had been standing beside him for a while, and asked in surprise: "Are you going to build a stage, sir?"
"It's the altar. I've already chosen the location. As for how to build it, that's up to you. I only have one request: it must be completed before the Lower Yuan Festival."
"Xia Yuan Festival? What is my husband going to do?"
"Pray for blessings and worship the moon!"
"What's the point of offering sacrifices to the moon?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "Only in this way can the king summon me. If he doesn't summon me, how can I coax him into becoming a tyrant?"
"If you ask me, he is already stupid enough. He trained a man like Xiong Zhu as his successor and even launched a northern expedition for him. What else can he be but a tyrant!
However, since my husband is going to worship the moon, isn't it better if more people come to watch? Do you want me to ask my family to help you build momentum?"
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary. I can't trouble my father-in-law for everything. I can do the campaign myself."
"So what are your plans next, sir?"
"First, I need to appease Xiang Ying and Jing Xin, and then I can convince the Xiang and Jing families to sell grain to the court together. This will be my stepping stone to enter the Tianshu Academy."
Qu Xia said proudly: "Now that I am the eldest lady, I am afraid those two girls will be difficult to coax."
"Don't worry, Xiang Ying is heartless, of course, and Jing Xin also has weaknesses, so it's not a problem."
"Then, my husband, please go and do your work. I will wait for you to bring my two sisters back."
When Li Yi found Xiang Ying, she was patrolling the streets. Her face was so long that it seemed as if the words "Don't mess with me" were almost written on it. It was obvious that Miss Xiang was really angry this time.
Just as Xiang Ying reached Yanzhi Lane, two women came forward and saluted, saying, "Captain Xiang, go and have a look! There's a pervert on the street!"
Xiang Ying was worried that she had no one to vent her anger on, so she rushed over immediately. As a result, she saw Li Yi holding a girl's hand and insisting on predicting her marriage.
"Mr. Wei! How dare you act wildly on this street!" He drew his sword and stabbed.
Li Yi let go of her hand and said with a smile: "Miss, you can't calculate it now, because my marriage is coming!" After saying that, he dodged the stabbing sword and put his arm around Xiang Ying's waist. Then he said: "Let's go, let's talk outside the city!"
With a swish, the two of them disappeared from everyone's astonished sight.
In the farmland outside Baidi City, a sword energy blew through, almost helping the farmer to harvest the rice ahead of time! Li Yi grabbed Xiang Ying's hand and said unhappily: "Why are you so angry? How can I live if you destroy my farmland?"
"I'll pay for it!" Xiang Ying said, then broke free from Li Yi's restraints and swung the sword again.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "I knew I couldn't talk to a crude warrior like you properly!"
"I am a crude warrior, but what are you? You knew that Jing Xin, Qu Xia and I were sworn enemies, but you not only provoked her, but you also had an affair with her! You are a shameless villain who abandons her after having sex with her!"
Li Yi held Xiang Ying again and said, "Let's talk about reason, okay? I told you and Jing Xin after the poetry meeting that I will use all three major families."
"You can use them all, but you have to marry one from each family! Even if you have to marry one from each family, it has to be Qu Xia!"
"Qu Xia is obviously a condition for the Qu family to contribute. Don't tell me you can't even see that!"
"According to what you said, Jing Xin and I are the same. If you are like this, then I would rather live alone for the rest of my life than marry you!"
"Ah, with your bad temper, I am too lazy to waste time talking to you, just use the sword to speak!"
Li Yi used his Qi base to push Xiang Ying away, and pulled out the Laurel Sword from the sack to launch an attack. He did not use his Qi base, but only used the sword intent to express his feelings.
After four moves, the sword in Xiang Ying's hand broke. Li Yi threw the laurel wood sword to her, raised his hand and pointed, and a red line appeared on his left wrist. At the same time, a red line also appeared on Xiang Ying's right wrist, and the two lines connected together.
"This is our destiny. If you don't believe me, you can use the sword given by Yue Lao to cut this red thread. From now on, you and I will no longer have any connection!"
Xiang Ying raised her hand and looked at the red line on her wrist, and said in astonishment: "Is your sword intent true?"
"Why else do you think Senior Xiang Xiong would take the initiative to help me? When you reach the Transcendent Realm, you will be restricted by the laws of heaven and earth. Even a warrior can sense some of the secrets of heaven, so Senior Xiang is willing to fight this battle for me."
Xiang Ying returned the wooden sword to Li Yi and said awkwardly: "Even if it is God's will, you can't just give up like this..."
Li Yi didn't let Xiang Ying finish the rest of her words, and blocked her mouth with his own...
After a few breaths, Li Yi opened his mouth and looked at Xiang Ying. The latter's eyes were a little dull. She couldn't believe that all this would happen to her. She looked up at Li Yi, looking for the light of love in Li Yi's eyes like her mother.
Xiang Ying smiled happily because she found it, found herself in his eyes.
Li Yi handed the sword to Xiang Ying and said, "This was originally for you, so I broke your sword. However, you have to lend it to me when I go to kill the Gu God. Take good care of it, it is much stronger than your Xiang family's Phoenix Halberd."
Xiang Ying nodded.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, don't forget to take Mo Bai with you to patrol the streets. She misses you a lot."
Xiang Ying nodded again.
"Then I'll go first. After I coax you, I still have to go coax Jingxin."
"and many more!"
"what!"
"Kiss me again!"
Li Yi shook his head, smiled, hugged Xiang Ying and kissed her on the face, then jumped and disappeared into the sunset, leaving only Xiang Ying with a smile on her face...
The scene shifted to the Jing family's villa, where Jing Xin was sitting at the table, flipping through the "Xiu Yuan Collection" which she had read countless times. It seemed that she had not read it since she met Wei Le.
Jing Xin turned to the poem "Flying Birds" and recited silently: "In the world of three thousand, I love three things: the sun, the moon and you. The sun is for the morning, the moon is for the evening, and you are for me morning and evening."
"Do you know that in this poem, Li Xiuyuan only talked about love, and it is not complete? If you think I am not as good as him, why not listen to me recite the rest first."
Li Yi's voice came with a ball of purple air flying into the room, but the purple air condensed into a few lines of words in front of Jing Xin:
There are countless things in this world, but there are three that cannot be found: the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, and you in the dream. The moon can be sought, the flower can be obtained, but you cannot be obtained.
Just as Jing Xin was trembling as she looked at the words in front of her, his voice came again: "Only after experiencing this unrequited desire can you understand,
Since ancient times, sentimentality has left only empty regrets, and good dreams are the easiest to wake up from. Is it that picking flowers is difficult to get rid of, but it's a pity that the flying catkins are too drifting.
The sweet nest is newly built, and the new words are still written on the jade screen. It is not because of the separation that my heart is broken, but the tears have also covered my old clothes. "
The brilliant purple air gathered thicker and thicker in front of Jing Xin, turning into purple mist, which was soon absorbed into Li Yi's palm. At this moment, he was sitting in front of a zither, plucking the strings, and then singing the song "Love is Difficult":
The faint traces of tears make the yearning vivid. The sound of the wind under the moon lingers around the lonely city.
(Li Yi looks at Jing Xin and sings calmly)
I want to write a poem as mellow as wine, intoxicated by the memory
(Li Yi exudes his talent, and purple air isolates the entire study room, and then emits white light, as if placing the two of them in a white space)
What makes you believe that someone in your previous life wrote down your youth?
(A big word "love" slowly appeared on the wall behind Li Yi. He raised his hand, and a red line appeared on his left wrist and quickly connected to Jing Xin's right wrist)
Time is as sharp as a blade, cutting off our fate at dusk when the plum rain falls
(Their surroundings suddenly changed into a field at sunset, the wind blew, it began to rain, and the rain condensed into ice, cutting the red string between their hands. Jing Xin reached out to grab it, but she didn't, because a door appeared in front of her.)
Open the door, in the world of fireworks, on the rice paper are the people in the story
(Jing Xin immediately opened the door and saw only the guzheng, but no sign of Wei Le. She walked closer and saw a piece of paper on the guzheng, on which was written the poem just now)
Watch the butterflies dancing in spring, count the flowers falling in autumn, feel the loneliness in winter
(The surrounding scene changes, in spring, flowers bloom and butterflies dance, in autumn, flowers wither and leaves fly, in winter, snow falls and people are looking for them, but only footprints are deep in the snow)
Eleven strokes of love finally form a love debt, which hurts the infatuated person
(The white snow was dyed black, and the word "love" was written again in front of Jing Xin, while Wei Le was standing on the other side of the word "love")
The sound of the flute in the distance under the eaves is heartbreaking and soul-stirring
(He picked up the flute and started playing it, Jing Xin burst into tears. She ran over desperately to Wei Le. She reached out to hug him, but he turned into purple air and disappeared...)
Jing Xin looked around and called out, "Brother Wei! Brother Wei, where are you?"
But the scene before him disappeared in an instant, leaving only a piece of paper on the table, which read:
"In this world, there are only three things that cannot be found: the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, and you in the dream. The moon can be sought, the flower can be obtained, but you cannot be sought."
At this moment, Jing Xin could no longer hold back. She picked up the rice paper and rushed out the door, shouting Wei Le's name.
The maid was surprised and asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother Wei has been here, right?"
"Miss, are you talking about Wei Le? He has never been here. Miss, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Brother Wei!"
"Miss, didn't you say you would never see him again?"
"What do you care? Get the car ready! I want to go find him!"
At this time, a handsome man walked into the courtyard, saw the panicked Jing Xin, and asked, "Sister, what happened?"
Jing Xin held her brother's hand and asked, "Brother Xuan, you're back just in time. Help me figure out where your brother-in-law is."
Jingxuan looked surprised and said, "It's only been a short time since we last met, how come I have a brother-in-law?"
"Help me figure out where I can find him!"
"Don't worry, sister. Tell me first, who is my brother-in-law?"
The maidservant beside her answered: "Who else could it be? It must be the famous Master Wei Lewei!"
