31, Chapter 31(3/5)
Negotiate marriage for your son.
The more she thought about it, the more she became confused. Maybe it was because she was born by fate, but why many things were different from the previous life in her memory.
After Teng Shao said these words, he turned to see his daughter looking at him inquiringly. He put his hands on his hands and stopped walking: "Why am I telling you this? It's because -"
He was speechless and didn't even know where to start. These words should have been taught by the mother-in-law, but Huiniang died young. He had been in the army for a long time, and he wanted to be the mother-in-law but was unable to do so.
Last night he went to the palace for a banquet. A minister named Su Xingwang at the royal palace was very drunk and accidentally made a drunken statement in front of the royal court, saying that his daughter had been lovesick since she met Lin Chengyou in the royal garden once she came back.
No matter how much her parents scolded her, her daughter would not marry unless she was Lin Chengyou. The couple tried many ways, but their daughter never forgot Lin Chengyou. Now she is dying of illness and only asks the saint to help tie her feet with a red rope.
The saint comforted Su Xingwang with gentle words for a long time, and even assigned his minister to the young lady to treat her illness. He discussed the matter of marriage, but declined politely.
Teng Shao was watching at the time and remembered that he had met Lin Chengyou several times. This young man was handsome and loved to laugh when he was young. When he got older, he was even more handsome and handsome, which made the young ladies in Chang'an City fall in love with him. No matter how ordinary he was, he was very handsome.
But that's it.
When he returned home today and heard that his daughter was interacting with Lin Chengyou, he was also shocked. He was not afraid of anything else but that his daughter would be like that minister's daughter...
He considered it carefully and said: "It's not a bad thing for you to make more friends when you first come to Chang'an. The two young Taoist priests are innocent and loyal, so you can often interact with them in the future. However, I have something to remind you. Once the corpse evil is removed,
, don’t have anything to do with Lin Chengyou anymore.”
Teng Yuyi was stunned. The old man went around in a big circle. He was actually worried about this. Not to mention getting involved with Lin Chengyou again, just hearing this person's name made him feel angry.
She snorted coldly, picked up the chopsticks and wrote: Master, I am too worried. I avoid Lin Chengyou, and Lin Chengyou also looks down on me. After this incident, it is impossible for the two of us to meet again.
Teng Shao saw that his daughter not only didn't want to mention Lin Chengyou more, but also looked disgusted when she heard his name. There was no need to guess the reason. It was probably because his daughter and Lin Chengyou had a bad temper. After all, his daughter had always had her own opinions, so she might not be like the daughter of the Su family.
That way, I often had lingering thoughts, so I said to him: "As long as you understand my concerns."
Teng Yuyi took out the scroll and unfolded it in front of Teng Shao: "Have you seen this person before?"
Teng Shao didn't answer at first, but he looked at it for a moment and then asked suspiciously: "I've never seen him before, who is this person?"
Teng Yuyi wrote: It's a bit ridiculous to say that I once dreamed that this person was trying to kill me. The dream was extremely vivid, and it happened several times in a row. I woke up and was scared, so I drew this person's face.
Teng Shao's face was as dark as water, and he raised his hand to take the scroll in his hand. It was impossible to tell the history from just such a portrait.
Teng Yuyi drew again: Have you ever seen such a hidden weapon?
Teng Shao's eyes moved on the painting inch by inch, and finally nodded slowly: "I have seen something similar, in the army in a different place, but it is about the same thickness as a piano string, and it is definitely not as thin as the one in the painting."
Teng Yuyi was greatly disappointed. My grandfather had seen almost all the weapons in the world, and even he had no clue. Why should the clues be cut off? She quickly wrote: This person is fierce and will harm me sooner or later. I also ask my grandfather to find his whereabouts as soon as possible, otherwise I will
Having trouble sleeping and eating.
Teng Shao looked at his daughter's expression carefully: "It's just a dream. Maybe there is no such person in the world. Yu'er, why are you so scared?"
Teng Yuyi's heart was pounding, but she tried to be calm on her face: Since I got this sword, I have had several miraculous dreams. A while ago, I dreamed that my cousin would be in trouble, and I also dreamed of a high school student named Lu.
, all of these have come true one by one. Afterwards, if I dream about being killed by this person, I will inevitably become frightened.
Teng Shao's eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could see into people's hearts. He stared at his daughter for a long time, nodded and stopped asking further: "Okay, I will definitely find out the details of this person as soon as possible."
Teng Yuyi was relieved and wrote: This person is definitely not a kind person, he knows strange arts, and he can kill martial arts masters with one strike. If I meet this person in the future, I must be careful.
Teng Shao was a little surprised that his daughter was so serious about a dream, and she didn't seem to be worried about himself, but seemed to be worried about his safety. Before he could answer, his daughter calmly took the tray back and walked out.
Teng Shao remembered that the year after his wife's death, Dangxiang and Tubo invaded, and the military situation in Fengxiang was in critical condition. The court urgently dispatched his Zhenhai navy to assist. The road was long, the border was bitterly cold, and the children were too young to go with the army. He weighed it again and again.
, he could only send his daughter to Du Fu.
A few months later, when Banshi returned to the court, he went to the Du Mansion to visit his daughter despite being covered in dust. However, her daughter seemed not to recognize him and refused to see him.
He had nothing to do, so he slumped back to the nave and sat silently for a long time. When he looked up unintentionally, he saw a small figure flashing quickly. He caught up with her and found that his daughter was secretly hiding outside the door. Suddenly she had a pair of black and white eyes, and a faint trace of light on her cheeks.
There were tears, and when he found out, he turned around and ran away, looking stubborn and arrogant.
He chased after his daughter and held his daughter in his arms. The father and daughter squatted under the lingering light of the setting sun and did not speak for a long time. This scene was burned into his heart and almost turned into a scar. After many years, the look on his daughter's face has never changed.
He felt inexplicably sad, looked at his daughter's back, and said warmly: "Master knows."
Teng Yuyi's feet stagnated slightly, and then he quickly stepped out of the threshold.
In the afternoon of that day, Teng Shao rejected all kinds of posts from outside the mansion and personally selected dozens of strong guards to guard inside and outside the mansion. He himself picked a long tree with a threatening snow light.
Sitting on the ground in the atrium.
Juesheng and Qizhi finished setting up the Nine-Heaven Demon-Conquering Array. They used almost half of their strength to paste talismans on every corner, and returned to Songtaoyuan panting.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan sitting in front of the court in front of a large clump of bamboos playing chess.
The dense bamboo shadows almost blocked most of the sun.
"Mrs. Teng, Mrs. Du."
Du Tinglan stood up with a smile: "Are the two Taoist priests, His Royal Highness the Prince and the Taoist priest from Dongmingguan here?"
Juesheng and Qizhi shook their heads.
"You didn't send any news?"
Juesheng said: "No."
Qi Zhi turned to look at the sky: "It's getting late, it should be coming soon."
"Yes, yes, maybe on the way."
Du Tinglan couldn't hide the worry on her face, but Teng Yuyi pulled Juesheng and Qizhi closer, ordered her maid to serve refreshments to Juesheng and Qizhi, and personally taught them how to play chess.
Game after game was played, and the sun slowly set in the west. During this period, the maids came several times to send messages, but there was still no news from Lin Chengyou and others.
When Uncle Cheng also came to inquire about the news, Teng Yuyi couldn't help but look around. The orange red clouds in the sky were gradually replaced by a quiet and vast blue, and it would be dark in a few moments.
Juesheng and Qizhi became more and more anxious. They had no time to think about playing chess and eating snacks. They sat cross-legged under the verandah, holding the altar wood high and muttering mantras.
Teng Yuyi also slowly put down the chess pieces, concentrating and holding her breath, as if facing a formidable enemy.
This wait lasted for more than half an hour, from when the sky was dark to when the bright moon was in the sky. Not even a fly could fly in, let alone the zombies.
Teng Shao was still guarding the central hall. Uncle Cheng led people to light lamps everywhere, and the whole house was in full array. There were guards patrolling every corner. After a while, for the convenience of Teng Yu, Teng Shao and the two Taoist priests had a meal together.
Send dinner to the inner courtyard.
Juesheng and Qizhi hurriedly took a bite of food and returned to the verandah. They had spent a lot of energy setting up the formation in front of them, and now they dare not slack off in order to prepare for the zombie attack. It's okay if the time is short, but it will be harmful to the mind after a long time.
It is undoubtedly a kind of devastation.
At the beginning of Xu Shi, Juesheng finally couldn't hold on any longer and took a nap first.
Qi Zhi opened a crack in his eyelids and called out in a low voice: "Jue Sage, Jue Sage."
Juesheng woke up suddenly and tried to cheer up, but he couldn't stop the sleepiness, and soon he started to stagger again.
Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan were afraid of disturbing the two people's defense, so they stayed in the house. When they heard the noise and came out, they saw one was drowsy and the other was so sleepy that he rubbed his eyes.
Teng Yuyi hurriedly asked her maid to fetch water, wet a towel and gave it to Juesheng and Qi Zhi to cleanse their faces. The two cleaned up and managed to get rid of their sleepiness.
Du Tinglan smiled and said: "Taoist priest must be exhausted. He didn't sleep all night last night. Even an adult wouldn't be able to endure it."
Juesheng was so arrogant that he ran to the court and started punching. Teng Yuyi sat cross-legged under the verandah, picked up chopsticks and wrote on the tray: Why don't we talk about it? Do you think the zombie will come tonight?
Qi Zhi originally wanted to nod, but looked up at the sky, but was not sure again: "Zhi Xie is in urgent need of increasing its power after breaking through the formation. If it sets its sights on a certain target, it won't wait too long and will attack soon, but its evil nature
Extremely, it cannot be judged by common sense. The "Demon Sutra" says that Shi Xie is very particular before taking action."
Teng Yuyi: Pay attention? Will it eat human skin and flesh?
Qi Zhi whispered: "It likes to confuse people's hearts before taking action. In addition to its cruel nature, it is also because it makes it easier for it to seize the heart. The prey it likes will be deceived into heartbreak or crying loudly before death.
Crying, or feeling guilty and regretful, if someone is killed in this situation, their souls are often in pieces, and they are not even qualified for reincarnation."
Teng Yuyi felt excited all over.
Du Tinglan trembled: "No wonder he was so frightening at Prince Cheng's Mansion that night. It turned out to be to destroy Ayu's will first. He is such a vicious evil thing. It is not enough to harm people in one life, but also to harm people for generations to come."
"That's why it's called Zhixie." Qi Zhi sighed, "Mrs. Teng, do you still remember the illusion that Juan'erli and Gejin saw that night? Juanerli saw the cake shop opened by her late father, and Mrs. Gejin saw it.
What I saw was an abandoned courtyard.”
Teng Yuyi nodded.
"That should be the darkest and most fragile part of her two memories. Corpse Evil uses this to create an illusion in order to draw out the most painful memories of its prey."
When Du Tinglan heard this, he finally remembered what was wrong: "Wait a minute, according to this, Juan'erli and Lady Gejin from Caifeng Tower were targeted by Zixie first, and Zixie hadn't succeeded yet, so why did they leave those two behind?
Have you come here to look for Ayu instead?"
How dare Teng Yuyi let her sister know that she was born by fate, and she didn't dare to say a word.
Qi Zhi said: "Juesheng and I have not thought about this. It may have something to do with Lady Teng injuring Young Master Jinyi with a sword. Young Master Jinyi is, after all, a companion of Zhi Xie. He probably sought revenge from Lady Teng first.
"
Juesheng ran up the steps and said: "There is another possibility that Zhixie is playing tricks on everyone. There are three preys, each living separately. Even the senior brother can't be sure who Zixie wants to hunt first. After all, the manpower is limited and cannot cover everything.
, As a result, it not only makes the prey panic all day long, but also makes senior brother exhausted. I suspect that the reason why senior brother has not arrived tonight is because something went wrong at the Caifeng Tower."
This is possible. When Zixie broke into Prince Cheng's Mansion that night, although Fu Lu did not set himself on fire, Xiao Ya warned him several times, but Xiao Ya Jian remained calm tonight.
Qi Zhi stepped forward and fought, trying to capture every trace of evil in the wind: "Maybe the corpse evil won't come tonight, but even so, we can't slack off."
At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the hospital. Everyone's hearts were tense and they were immediately on alert.
