Chapter 39: The Wine Room
When time gradually passed, in the dim sword pavilion, Li Ji could already feel pain in his arm, which was the result of exerting too much force for too long. When he raised his head and looked up, it was an almost despairing scene. His spiritual power had almost been exhausted.
But in front of him, there was only three inches of land. There was an unknown amount of world waiting for him before him.
His left hand was trembling, so Li Ji shook it vigorously, lit the flame, and tried again with his right hand. When his right hand was tired and sore, he switched to his left hand, but the effect was minimal.
Li Ji tiredly sat down on the ground and stared blankly in front of him. He could insist on it several times. People always need to rest.
In the wine room, there were cheers and laughter, and one or two laughter and curses could be heard from time to time. Lan Xin listened from a distance, and she felt so angry. She saw her precious daughter running over to complain to her, saying that she wanted to question her, but she couldn't find her.
Dad.
Looking at the crystal tears hanging on her daughter's face, Lan Xin knew that she was talking too much, but she still couldn't help but feel distressed. It took a lot of effort to get Pei Yan to stop crying, but her eyes were already red from crying.
It was slightly swollen, and she hugged her gently. Lan Xin's face was full of distress, and she comforted her softly: "My good daughter, mother will go and get that bad father back for you. Please stop crying, okay? Take a look.
, my face is all stained, and I’m not pretty anymore.”
Wiping the tears on Pei Yan's face, Lan Xin's heart ached. Pei Yan had always comforted herself that she was not tired or miserable even when she was a child.
She wouldn't show it, but Ke Lanxin didn't expect that such an incident would have such a big impact on Pei Yan.
Pei Yan raised her head slightly and looked at Lan Xin. Although she tried hard to suppress it, she still cried and said with sobs: "Mom, I am only such a friend, you can't be like this."
Lan Xin nodded hurriedly, but she scolded Zhao Li and Pei Qinhu eight hundred times in her heart. How could she not guess that this must have something to do with Zhao Li, otherwise Pei Qinhu's head would not be able to turn so fast.
"No, how come I, such an excellent Yan'er, only have one friend? It's okay, it's okay. Mom, go find dad and come back and explain things clearly, okay? Don't cry, Yan'er, don't cry."
With tears in the corners of her eyes, Pei Yan pouted and said angrily: "They only play with me because I am Pei Qinhu's daughter, especially when my father said that I can't get married in the future, they see
My eyes have changed, like hungry wolves, mother, I’m scared!”
As he spoke, his tone softened, and tears fell again as if he couldn't stop them.
I don't know how long it took, but Pei Yan got tired from crying and fell asleep in Lan Xin's arms. Two obvious tear marks were on her face and the clothes in front of Lan Xin were wet. She gently put Pei Yan on the bed and gave her a
She covered herself with the quilt and rushed out without even changing her clothes.
The two people who were talking and laughing suddenly looked out the door. There was a heavy breath. Although it was familiar, it was so unfamiliar.
Zhao Li put down the wine bowl in his hand, his face calmed down, he looked at Pei Qinhu and said, "Something happened."
Pei Qinhu's smiling face froze. He let out a long breath and put down the wine bowl. There was a trace of sadness in his expression, as if he had known it would be like this. He shook his head and said, "I know."
With a "squeak" sound, the door was slowly pushed open. Lan Xin's face was full of anger. She put down the wine bowl and looked at the two people at the door.
"Xin'er, why did you come so quickly? I thought you were still going to coax me."
Pei Qinhu's face was calm, and he was sitting there, but Zhao Li saw that he had already clenched his fists, and his veins were bulging. He seemed to be suppressing something in his heart, and it took a long time to let go.
Frowning, Zhao Li felt that this matter could not be solved easily, and he immediately wanted to find an excuse to run away.
As soon as Zhao Li opened his mouth, before he could speak, Lan Xin glared at Zhao Li fiercely, which made him swallow his words back in his stomach.
"Pei Qinhu, let me tell you, you are right for Wangyue Peak, but your daughter is not yours alone."
Listening to this tone, and then thinking about what Pei Qinhu said, and then thinking about Pei Yan looking for Pei Qinhu, Zhao Li seemed to understand something. You know, he had never seen Lan Xin call Pei Qinhu by his name, even if she was born again.
I have never been angry.
Zhao Li frowned and raised his hand to stop Pei Qinhu. He looked at Lan Xin and said, "Let's talk it over if we have anything to do. Junior sister, don't be so excited."
"You are not a good person. You didn't come up with a bad idea. Why did my daughter cry for so long?" Lan Xin didn't care at all and almost shouted.
Zhao Li was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly, and said: "This is none of my business. I am just a suggestion. No, it has not been put into practice. Junior sister, please don't do this."
"Would I believe your lies?"
Seeing the disbelief on Lan Xin's face, Zhao Li had nothing to say. He could only shrug, glanced at Pei Qinhu, and said, "Then I can't help it, but it was you who told Pei Yan, junior sister, right?"
"Wait until you're done. It'll be too late."
"Forehead......"
"I also know about your family's affairs. There are some things I can't say. However, junior sister, he can't help himself when catching a tiger. I also know that it's useless to say anything. Your stubbornness has been there since childhood.
So, but I still want to advise you, instead of getting angry at Qinhu here, why don't you just take care of yourself
Think about how to find a suitable husband for your precious daughter. Although she is indeed still young, my advice to you, senior brother, is not to interfere with her. No matter who she falls in love with in the future, as long as you nod, even if
I can send it to you regardless of whether it is the most proud disciple of my Nagato or the next leader."
Zhao Li said these words calmly, but Lan Xin asked after listening: "But, what if she falls in love with someone from another sect?"
The corner of Zhao Li's mouth twitched slightly, and he felt depressed in his heart. He shook his head and said, "Aren't you making things difficult for me? Let's do this. In a few years, instead of opening the mountain gate, you can choose first. After you finish, I will let the rest
What do you think about the two-line selection?"
You must know that if you do this, it will no longer depend on the disciple's own wishes, and it will violate the rules of the Sword Sect. But since Zhao Li said this, he will naturally fulfill it.
Seeing the surprise on Pei Qinhu's face, Lan Xin snorted and said, "Okay, but I want the third term."
"No problem, these hundred years are all yours, that's all. Li Ji is still choosing a sword. I have to go take a look. Ah Da probably didn't go in. I'm afraid something will happen."
"Then you are still drinking here. I don't think you are worried at all." Lan Xin said unceremoniously.
"It's boring to talk to you. You two can play by yourselves as a couple. I'm leaving." Zhao Li got up and left with a look of displeasure on his face.
Lan Xin did not stop him, but let him go.
"Xin'er, do you think Yan'er cried?" At this time, Pei Qinhu spoke.
Lan Xin glared at him and said in a bad tone, "Yeah, what's wrong? I thought you only had eyes for those jars of broken wine. If you don't learn anything else from the master, learn this."
"I'm sorry, I didn't know Yan'er could cry, I thought..."
Lan Xin interrupted him and said, "What do you think? Just like before, no matter how much wronged she is, she will hold it in? Then she will hide in a corner and cry alone?"
"I...I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"Go back with me, apologize to Yan'er properly, make up a lie, and coax Yan'er. You don't feel sorry for me, I feel sorry for my daughter."
