Chapter 12 Lobbying

The next day, as the morning light faded, the monkeys in the back mountains of Emei had already begun their morning exercises. Their cries were heard one after another, and Zhou Zhiruo, who was lying on the stone ground next to the clear lake, slowly woke up.

Zhou Zhiruo had drunk wine before, and she knew the taste of wine, but never had she been as happy, so relaxed, and happy as she was last night when she drank alcohol, so relaxed and happy that she fell asleep without even realizing it.

The stone was so hard that Zhou Zhiruo didn't know how long she had been lying there, but she still felt the pain. She slowly sat up, rubbed her shoulders and neck, and then looked around.

The fire lit last night had long since burned out, and Xiao Yu'er had disappeared.

Zhou Zhiruo is not disappointed. She will leave sooner or later. What difference does it make if she leaves early or later? Moreover, when she left Xiao Yu'er before, she didn't really want him to stay in Mount Emei.

Zhou Zhiruo washed her face with the lake water, arranged her hair and clothes, and then walked to the stone room. She would leave for the Wudang Sect the day after tomorrow. She had to bring the bamboo shoots and medicine with her. But when Zhou Zhiruo walked into the stone room,

But I found that the stone chamber had changed its appearance.

The original straw cotton batting on the stone bed was replaced by a fine down quilt. The original wooden shelf was very small, but now it has become a wooden cabinet, which is more than twice the size. However, the bamboo raft on the wooden shelf is gone and replaced by

A full-length jade flute.

She walked over and picked up the jade flute and looked at it. Both the color and texture were of high quality, not much worse than the jade flute on Peach Blossom Island.

Zhou Zhiruo was a little surprised. She didn't expect Xiao Yu'er to leave her such a surprise. But how did Xiao Yu'er get such a good thing?

After putting away the jade flute, Zhou Zhiruo moved the wooden cabinet to expose the stone wall. Then she pressed it somewhere and the stone wall protruded like a drawer.

Zhou Zhiruo glanced at the medicine bottles and wooden boxes in the stone drawer, opened them and smelled them to make sure they were correct, then put them on her body, then looked at the stone room again before turning and leaving.

Zhou Zhiruo withdrew her gaze and sat at the table, saying: "Let the past things pass by. I have already forgotten them. Senior Brother Song doesn't need to take them to heart."



Zhou Zhiruo knows what will happen when she goes down the mountain with her master this time, so she is often prepared. For example, when she wears a veil, she will tie it more firmly than usual. When giving a gift to the Wudang Sect, she will directly hand it to a young disciple of the Wudang Sect.

Instead of handing it to Song Qingshu, Song Qingshu still went to the kitchen to apologize to her, and still made up a house full of grasshoppers for her.

Zhou Zhiruo glanced at Zhu Jiuzhen. The last time she came to Hongmei Villa to see Zhu Jiuzhen, she didn't know the stories between Zhang Wuji and her, so she didn't pay much attention to it. But when she saw her again today, she realized that Zhu Jiuzhen was really beautiful. No wonder Zhang Wuji fell in love with her at first.

She fell into the love trap she weaved, but on the surface she looked innocent and beautiful, but secretly she was a vicious-hearted person.

Vicious hearted...

"Zhiruo, I will never give up." Song Qingshu hugged the box with firm eyes.

Master Miejie wanted to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. This idea was deeply ingrained and had become her obsession. Wudang Zhang Sanfeng had not left seclusion, and Song Yuanqiao was still unwilling to agree to join forces with Emei to attack Mingjiao, so she set her sights on other sects.

On the body.

The grasshopper in Zhou Zhiruo's hand was pinched and deformed when she heard the three words "Zhang Wuji", but there was no strange look on her face. She said: "I have never taken this matter to heart.

, so many years have passed, if you hadn’t mentioned it today, Senior Brother Song, I would have almost forgotten it, so you don’t have to ask me for forgiveness like this, I wouldn’t have cared about it long ago, and I would have forgiven you long ago.”

Mie Mie also wanted to go to Hongmei Villa to find Zhu Changling, the descendant of Master Yideng, and discuss with him the matter of slaying the demon ally. Yin Liuxia and the others were like-minded with Mie Mie and agreed to go to Hongmei Villa together, so they were with the Emei Sect along the way.

And go.

On the way to Hongmei Villa, Zhou Zhiruo met Song Qing several times, but they only exchanged a few simple greetings and never said anything else. Zhou Zhiruo just thought that Song Qingshu had put her down and stopped thinking about it.

matter.

Zhou Zhiruo naturally couldn't smile at him anymore, so she said calmly: "Senior Brother Song, I don't have to cater to you just to make you believe anything. I said that I have forgiven you a long time ago, whether you believe it or not,

This matter is over now. I don’t want to hear you talk about it anymore. I want to rest. Senior Brother Song should leave quickly."

Zhou Zhiruo looked at the grasshopper in the room, feeling somewhat helpless and moved in her heart. However, the two of them would never come to an end. Zhou Zhiruo knew this better than anyone else, so why bother to entangle and mislead others and yourself?

"Zhiruo, can you forgive me?" Song Qingshu saw that Zhou Zhiruo had been staring at the grasshopper in the room, and was worried that she was still unwilling to forgive herself for the mistakes she had made before, and there was a lot of caution in her words.

Zhou Zhiruo saw that Song Qingshu had left, and quickly closed the door, then took out all the grasshoppers in the room and put them together. Later, Master Jue led a group of disciples to leave Wu Shi. When Song Qingshu came to the room again, he saw many grasshoppers on the table.

He picked up a box, and the box was filled with grasshoppers.

When they arrived at Hongmei Villa, Zhu Changling was not there. Her daughter Zhu Jiuzhen told them that her father was obsessed with Buddhism and followed the ancestor to Dali.

Outside the stone room, an orchid is growing vigorously.

Zhou Zhiruo followed Master Miejie to visit several other sects along the way. After some lobbying by Miejie, many sects agreed to join forces with Emei. However, besieging the Mingjiao was a major event, and Miejue did it secretly so that no one from the Mingjiao would notice.

Zhou Zhiruo's words were no longer polite, and she finally issued an eviction order. No matter how stupid she was, she could understand what she was thinking. At this moment, Song Qingshu felt a little lost and walked out with his head hanging down.

"Don't forget. If you forget, you won't be forgiven." When Song Qingshu heard Zhou Zhiruo say that she had forgotten, he felt anxious and sat next to her, "Zhiruo, in order to compile these grasshoppers, I went to Uncle Qi to ask him

To teach me, you might as well practice five sets of boxing. This is much more difficult than practicing kung fu. I don’t know how Zhang Wuji learned it. When I was young, my uncle Qi wanted to teach me but I didn’t learn it yet. I didn’t expect that now..." Song Qingshu smiled.

, continued, "Zhiruo, for the sake of my sincere apology, please forgive me."

Later, the Emei Sect rested in an inn and met Yin Liuxia and Song Qingshu from Wudang. They said that although Wudang's attitude was unclear, the two of them were willing to attack the Mingjiao together with the Emei Sect, and the destination of their trip was Hongmei Villa.



What Zhou Zhiruo said was just to tell Song Qingshu that she didn't take him to heart. Song Qingshu was a smart person. It was impossible for him not to hear it, but he just pretended not to hear it. Instead, he looked at her with a gentle face and said

: "Then can you smile? Smiling means you forgive me."

Wasn't she once said to be vicious-hearted? Now she uses it to describe others, which always feels strange and unspeakable.

And Zhang Wuji...

Thinking of Zhang Wuji, Zhou Zhiruo's mood fluctuated a bit. If she remembered correctly, she would meet Zhang Wuji in a few days. What should she do then?

Hongmei Villa is located at the foothills of Kunlun Mountains with a wide view. Mie Mie wanted to use this place as a strategic location for the Allied forces. However, for some reasons, Zhu Jiuzhen did not agree directly and only invited them to stay for one night so that she and the guards could join them tomorrow.

Wall wedding.

Seeing that the Zhu family disagreed, Miejie didn't want to stay anymore, but Song Qingshu persuaded her to stay.
