Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Try to slow down everyone's name, try to increase the interval time, and put Peony's name at the end.When I had nothing to say but the word "Peony", my pretense of ignorance came to an end. Disciplining sisters is really a troublesome thing, and being appointed by my aunt's favor, I should do my duty.It's just that the conscientious sisters must be punished, and their punishment really does nothing for me. It can neither increase my skill nor make me feel at ease.But if I don't do my duty too well, the punishment will definitely fall on my head. I don't want them to be punished, nor do I want to be punished myself.As a result, it really bothered me.

Silently seeing Peony walking back to the queue in a hurry, she was so late! There was still panic on Peony's face, which gave her an abnormal blush.The breath is still turbid, even if the skirt is covered with flowers and grass clippings, she still doesn't care to clean it up. I walked towards her step by step, trying to appear as gentle as possible, but the guarded expressions on everyone's faces frustrated me.They are flowers under the sun and dew, but at this moment I am like the frost wind that wants to invade and destroy them. Looking directly into Peony's eyes, brushing away the grass clippings from the folds of her skirt without any trace, asking her softly: "Where have you been?" You should let me know your whereabouts, right?Otherwise, how will I deal with my aunt in a while?

But Mudan lowered her head, avoiding my gaze, and answered irrelevant questions: "Of course I know the rules, you just punish me." I looked at her and said, "At least give me a reason." She bit her lip slightly and refused to speak, and I understood what she meant: she couldn't tell me the reason, but she didn't want to make up a reason casually. Peony's sincerity is the same as her beauty, she is the queen of flowers with her own peerless youth, and her teleportation technique is exquisite and wonderful.She was equally frank and real, always aboveboard. Peony's performance today is really abnormal.

I had a headache, and just about to ask her again, I suddenly smelled something strange.It was an aura that had never appeared in Ten Thousand Flowers Forest before. Looking up, all the sisters standing in front of me turned their heads back one after another, screaming and dispersing one after another. I was taken aback by the sudden opening in front of my eyes.There is actually a strange man walking towards here from Linkou! Our duty is to protect Wanhua Forest from being disturbed by outsiders, so we all need to take cultivation as our lifelong career.In my imagination, those "outsiders" must be extremely powerful and fierce.However, my imagination is extremely lacking, and it is really a sin to create a vicious and vicious image that overlaps with my aunt in the end.

Since then, I have never imagined these meaningless things anymore, and just practiced with all my heart to prevent "outsiders" from attacking one day! But at this time, although this "outsider" came abruptly, it was quite different from my imaginary enemy.His eyes flicked hastily, and he found that he really didn't have the word "fierce", let alone super powerful. In fact, not only was he not transcendent, but he was also very weak. His breathing was slightly disordered, and his footsteps were also weak and feeble, which really made people unable to fight.

But I have always been a dedicated and diligent person, and the "threat theory of outsiders" instilled by my aunt for many years has been deeply rooted in my bone marrow. Before my eyes can take a closer look, my fingers are already slightly bent, and I instinctively grasped a trick in my hand. Unexpectedly, Peony beside me rushed over, reached out and pressed my wrist.He was stunned to see the panic in her eyes, as well as a trace of anger. A flash in my mind: Do they know each other?She was late just now, because of this stranger from outside? When did Peony hide such an outsider here?How courageous she is, how dare she hide people in a place like the Dojo?

He let go of his hand involuntarily, and only then did he take a closer look at the young man who was getting closer. Dressed in a blue-gray robe, he is slender and somewhat thin, with a handsome face.His expression was a little awkward, so the corners of his lips were tense. His eyes searched among the crowd, and suddenly bumped into me.I was inexperienced in this, so I couldn't dodge my gaze, but the moment I touched his eyes, I was involuntarily attracted by those pitch-black pupils. Zhan Qing is as empty as the eyes, a little nervous but very frank.The pitch-black eyes are full of brilliance, and it seems that just looking at people quietly like this can penetrate the bottom of my heart.Obviously he is a stranger, and obviously my heart is full of vigilance.But there is an invisible power in these eyes, breaking through the defense line of the "threat theory of outsiders", as if invisible hands, grabbing a certain point deep in my heart, trembling slightly!

This feels inexplicable, and even I can't adapt to it. I was shocked by the way he showed up so rashly, and even more shocked by Peony rushing to grab my wrist, and the strange emotion produced when the eyes meet, surprised me three points more than the previous two. But I have always been expressionless. Even though my heart and mind are churning, I must still have the kind of indifference on my face that even I hate. I hastily looked away and turned to Peony.She was staring at him blankly with an indescribably strange expression.There were surprises, panic, and even some confusion and anxiety.

I have always been good at distinguishing small differences in expressions. Since I can't do it myself, I pay special attention to trying to learn.But at this time, I couldn't distinguish them one by one, I just felt that the glance contained everything, some of them I understood, some of them were still unfamiliar. But suddenly he thought of Yunmei's trance color, which was very similar to the peony at this time. The young man saluted Peony: "I was too hasty just now, and I forgot to give my name. My surname is Zhu..." He was obviously talking to Peony, but I always felt that those eyes were looking for me, or it was me. Standing so close to Peony, who seemed to hold hands hand in hand, made me have an illusion.

Before I could think too much, I had already keenly captured the familiar and fierce aura.Auntie is here! There was a look of anxiety and fear on Mudan's face, looking at him and then at me, she added a hint of despair. I sighed in my heart: help her, my aunt is so sensitive, how can she not detect the strange aura, if she finds out, even I will not escape heavy punishment.But if you don't help her, with aunt's methods, this young man might die today. Never has Peony stared at me so beggingly, and such eyes pierced a certain place in my heart.That point spread out with soreness and pain, and the brain was still fighting between heaven and man in a dilemma, but the body already had self-awareness.He invaded and grabbed the young man who claimed to be Zhu.

Peony thought I was going to catch him and hand him over to her aunt, so she slashed at me! She was desperate to fight me in public for the sake of an "outsider", and she had no time to savor the taste of it, and calmly avoided her palm with a slight dodge of her body.When it comes to melee combat, Mudan is not very good at it. While avoiding her, he also grabbed the young man's chest with one hand, shoved him, and kicked him to the bottom of Mudan's skirt. The man was really weak, he staggered and rolled towards Peony, his posture was indescribably funny. Peony was a little dazed, but then she understood, and hurriedly lifted the layers of her sleeves to cover him tightly. When she looked up at me again, her expression showed a trace of gratitude. I glanced at the sisters around me, and saw their expressions were a little surprised, but my aunt's breath was getting closer, and I didn't have time to feel the meaning of these expressions in detail. Even though my aunt is extremely sensitive, this young man obviously has no magic power and his breath is weak.Otherwise, all of us sisters would not have noticed him until he got close to this point. Peony is protected by Yuanxiang, so it should be able to pass through.If he can't make it through like this, he can only blame his fate. My aunt has always hated "outsiders" and described them as scourges.It seems that the invasion of "outsiders" will bring disaster to Wanhualin.In fact, what she hates the most is actually a certain group of people.Specifically, it refers to men.And this 'outsider' has all the conditions that my aunt hates. Once discovered, the end will be miserable! My aunt has always said one thing in Wanhualin, if she hates something, we must hate it as much as she does. For example, there used to be a large library in the small bamboo forest, where there were many books in the collection.Obviously, it was my aunt who first taught us how to learn to read and write, let us read and learn about the world, and even praised us for being smart and eager to learn. Peony loved those books the most. In my opinion, those days were nothing more than a part of her cultivation.But Mudan lingered intoxicated, and spent far more time in the library than in any training ground. Until one day, Peony asked her aunt, where did these books come from and who wrote them?Why can't you see all the things mentioned in the book and the scenes depicted in the painting in the Ten Thousand Flowers Forest?Are the people described in the book real people?Do those lingering sorrows really exist in the world? When my aunt heard about it, she was furious, and immediately her cleverness and eagerness to learn turned into ignorance and delusion, and immediately threw us all away.More than half of the books there were burned. My aunt said this is a fairyland, but we are immortals.Immortals don't need to ask about the world, and everything in the world is nothing but a dream. She said that the world is evil, but men are worse.Men in the world are all hypocritical and cunning people, a hundred times more vicious than any monsters and beasts.Monsters will only absorb their essence to make people die, while men will deceive their affections to make life and death a hundred times more painful. Since then, no one dared to talk about the stories in the book, let alone talk about the outside world.But since that time, the sisters no longer want to show their thoughts easily.To me, to my aunt, it's all the same.In their eyes, after I became the heir.My aunt and I are one. Above the high level, the aunt is like the bright sun descending from the sky, and behind her is the scorching sun totem halo, which is the symbol of the most powerful cultivation technique.She was wearing a bright blue embroidered brocade dress, with wide-open cuffs and a long tugging train that exuded a scorching aura.Holding a short-handled golden stick in his hand, his face under the high bun is always majestic and lonely. Behind her is a standing female soldier, and beside her is her loyal servant Jin Jiayu.He is the only man my aunt allows in and out of Wanhualin. Everyone has spontaneously stood in line, and I hurried to the head of the line, leading everyone to greet them. As he walked towards his aunt, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.At this moment, I am very grateful for my rare expression, because my aunt will not see any nervousness in my face. This is not a deliberate disguise. My heart seems to be always out of tune with my body. Expressing emotions is a hundred times more difficult for me than the five series of exercises. I don't know how to express it, so I simply don't express anything. My aunt looked down at me slowly approaching, the corners of her mouth curled up in a moving arc, but there was no line at the corners of her eyes, and she didn't even move. "Auntie is still looking gorgeous today." I tried my best to move the corners of my mouth, and my words were so submissive as to be flattering. The female disciples in the Ten Thousand Flowers Forest possessed all kinds of beauties, even so, among them, my aunt was still the most eye-catching one. Auntie raised her brows, and that half-smile only lingered on the corner of her lips for a moment.Slightly stretching his sleeves in a gesture of looking down on everyone, in exchange for everyone's echo. Everyone bowed in abundance, and the voices of praise kept coming and going. Everyone has a love of beauty, even the aunt who is so strong is no exception. The flowers in the forest of thousands of flowers never fade, and the bright and beautiful faces of the women in the forest never grow old.But every woman here, from aunt to maidservant, takes good care of her appearance and figure.
