Battle for Rebirth

With all kinds of emotional turmoil in his heart, Yuan Xingnian was tossed and turned until midnight when he realized that he was seriously thinking about the possibility of being with Junzheng.He also didn't expect that in a little more than three years, he would go from resistance at the beginning to intimacy now, and time was slowly and silently wearing down his vigilance.In the beginning, he was just trying to get a little bit of the protagonist's aura, who would have expected that he would consider such a thing now.

Yuan Xingnian rubbed his forehead and forced himself not to think about it. After tossing and turning, he finally felt a little sleepy when he heard a slight voice, which seemed to come from him.The paper figurine was sleeping in a nest away from the place he didn't want to. He gently lifted the quilt and walked towards the wide open window. Through the faint moonlight, he saw that the hanging ornaments wrapped with ropes were emitting golden light, and they were extremely regular. There was a thin trembling sound.Puzzled, he stared at the pendant for a while, until the light gradually faded, and the voice gradually dissipated.The pendant has returned to its original appearance.

Yuan Xingnian had guessed the origin of this pendant at first, but now he was even more astonished, he stared at it for a long time in a daze until the sky was getting brighter, then he rubbed his stiff cheeks in a daze.Really sleepy, he nestled back into the cold quilt and fell asleep.This sleep lasted until the afternoon, and no matter how much Ren Zhiren called him, he didn't wake up.The paper figurine was worried at first, until the other party yawned and greeted it lazily.

I always felt that my previous worries were like fools, and the paper figurine's face and tone were not good, "Are you a pig, have you slept for so long?"

"Think I'll burn you?" Yuan Xingnian narrowed his eyes slightly, because of yesterday's unpleasant conversation he was old-fashioned, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The paper man curled his lips, it wasn't afraid of Yuan Xingnian's threat, anyway, he was just talking, so it climbed up Yuan Xingnian's arm and onto his shoulder.

"Hey, in fact, if I hadn't finished reading the depicted plot before, I would probably be deceived by the protagonist."

The solemn and worried tone of the paper figurine warmed Yuan Xingnian's heart. He also knew that the other party was more familiar with the whole plot than he was after all, but it would not be his behavior to give up because of this, so he tapped two fingers He patted the paper figurine's small head and smiled.

"Don't worry, I'm not irrational. I'm talking and you're reminding me, right?"

"Hmph, you'd better not do something stupid." The corner of the paper figurine's mouth curled up, but in a dismissive tone, "Otherwise I wouldn't clean it up for you."

Yuan Xingnian yawned, going to bed too late made him look mentally ill, he wiped away the tears he squeezed out, and said "yes" several times in a row.Then I told it about the hanging ornaments, but there was no description of this thing in the book, and the paper figurine spread its hands to express that it didn't know either.Yuan Xingnian simply wrote down this matter and ignored it for the time being, and planned to go to Junzheng after washing up.They made an appointment to go to Yonghe Town before going down the mountain at exactly the same time as Shen Shi, and the time is about the same now.

As a result, he ran into Lu Fuling on the road, and the other party saw him wave his hand carelessly.

Yuan Xingnian walked over and said with a smile, "Uncle Lu."

"Eh... so... Xin..." Lu Fuling's expression was distorted, but she couldn't say Yuan Xingnian's name.

"Yuan Xingnian, Master Uncle." Yuan Xingnian was speechless, but the other party's reaction reminded him of the last time, it seemed that Master Lu was not good at remembering other people's names.No wonder I asked his name several times in a row.

Lu Fuling's complexion remained unchanged, she said a cold "hmm", and then said, "Are you familiar with that... Zhou Tong?"

Yuan Xingnian guessed what the uncle meant, but he still replied softly, "Senior Brother Zhou and I are just acquaintances. Is there something wrong with the uncle?"

"Cough, I'm asking Zhou Tong." Lu Fuling probably remembered the name, and her expression changed subtly.

Now, Yuan Xingnian didn't understand even more.He blinked, wondering how to answer her.

Lu Fuling seemed too lazy to beat around the bush, and asked directly, "Did Zhou Tong get too close to Zhao Pan recently?"

"..." Yuan Xingnian thought about the way Zhou Tong and Zhao Pan got along next time and couldn't help feeling puzzled. Zhao Pan was so indifferent and alienated, others would think that they had a bad relationship, right?

Seeing Yuan Xingnian's silence, Lu Fuling thought he was acquiescing, her face darkened, and she said coldly, "Go and tell Zhou Tong not to pester Zhao Pan in the future, otherwise..."

The words behind that were self-evident, but Yuan Xingnian's heart was chilled, his eyes widened, and his expression became unnatural.After all, Lu Fuling was a Golden Core cultivator, and the suppression of his cultivation made him unable to resist at all.He licked his dry mouth, not daring to say anything.

It wasn't until Lu Fuling left that Yuan Xingnian raised his head with lingering fear, lamenting that the gap in strength was so obvious.After Yu was overwhelmed, he suddenly remembered what Lu Fuling said.Slowly, he became worried, and he thought about telling Zhou Tong when he came back.He didn't know what Zhou Tong was thinking, if it had nothing to do with Zhao Pan, it would be better to say it earlier.

Junzheng had been waiting at the intersection for a long time, and he went to get a flying sword from Uncle Xiao Chuxing on purpose.Although they don't practice swords, every disciple must learn to fly with the sword.Yuan Xingnian glanced at the sword sticking next to him and thought it looked familiar, Wuxu, who was standing aside, rushed over and hugged him before he remembered it.

"Baba!"

"Good boy." Yuan Xingnian rubbed Wuxu's head, smiled and looked at Junzheng again, "Brother, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Junzheng shook his head, gave Wuxu a look, saw it shrink back and obediently left Yuan Xingnian's embrace, and then he pulled out the flying sword next to him in satisfaction, "I brought the residual light here, the sword from the uncle's place is just enough gone."

Yuan Xingnian thought it was the afterglow, no wonder it looked familiar.When he thought this way, he was stunned again, "Brother, do we only have one sword?"

Jun Zheng smiled but said, "I remember that Junior Brother doesn't seem to know how to control a sword yet."

Yuan Xingnian realized that Junzheng was teasing him, and his thin face immediately blushed. He didn't know if it was because he really didn't have the ability to control the sword. After learning for a long time, he still couldn't control the flying sword.This matter made Zhou Tong laugh for a long time, and he used it to make fun of it.Fortunately, he still wanted to say that he could use the sword to escape. With his skill, it would take him a long time to use the sword.

"Brother, don't learn from Zhou Tong, you just like to laugh at me about this." Yuan Xingnian complained.

Jun Zheng squinted his eyes and didn't speak. He made a sword art with one hand and saw the sword hanging in the air.He glanced at Wuxu, who looked at them pitifully, and said lightly, "Wuxu, I see you, go back."

Wuxu suddenly put out a mournful face.

Yuan Xingnian was also afraid of making troubles during the Reform Movement of [-], but seeing its pitiful face, he hesitated for a while.However, Junzheng had already held his hand and stood on the sword, but he had no choice but to wave his hand at Wuxu and promise it to go to see it when it comes back.Seeing Tianmenzong getting smaller and smaller in his eyes, Yuan Xingnian subconsciously grabbed Junzheng's waist.

A smile flickered across the corner of Junzheng's mouth, but he didn't say anything, just flew towards Yuan Xingnian's parents' house and controlled the sword.Yonghe Town was not far away, so they arrived in no time.The original father had already sensed it, and had been waiting for them outside.Seeing that Yuan Xingnian was still alive and kicking, a reassuring smile appeared on his face.

"Senior." Jun Zheng thrust his sword into the ground and cupped his hands towards Yuan's father.

Yuan Shi was wiping her hands while coming out of the kitchen, "A Nian is back..." Seeing that Jun Zheng was there, she paused, "This is Senior Brother A Nian from last time, thank you so much last time With your help."

Junzheng smiled, and said humbly, "Lingtang, you are being polite, Xingnian is my junior brother, this is what I should do."

Yuanshi narrowed her eyes and smiled, the more she liked this humble and polite monk, the more she liked him, and hurriedly greeted him into the hall.Yuan Xingnian cut a cup of tea for his father and Junzheng each, and when he was thinking about how to speak, Junzheng had already opened his mouth with a smile.He first praised Xingnian's talent and ability, expressed the importance Tianmenzong attached to him, and then tactfully praised Yuanfu's good teaching.Yuan Xingnian's ears turned red when he was listening, this was the first time he was praised by Jun Zheng so much, so he just laughed foolishly by the side.

Yuan's father was also smiling, occasionally answering a sentence or two, mostly feeling that his child is lucky to have a brother like him.

Junzheng naturally talked about the things that Yuan Xingnian had been worried about, but he didn't directly mention Wen Wen's name, he just said that he accidentally found out the latest movement on the water tenth floor, and then thought of what happened three years ago. Yuan's father's face became serious, indicating that he would pay more attention.The next conversation between the two changed to other topics. Yuan Xingnian didn't expect Junzheng to be involved in alchemy, and he was completely confused when he listened to it.But when he told his father about this, his worries were relieved, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Jun Zheng's smile deepened a bit.

After staying at home for dinner, Junzheng returned to Tianmenzong with Yujian and Yuan Xingnian.Before returning to his own house, Yuan Xingnian stayed at Junzheng's place for a while to play with Wuxu. During this period, several female monks made excuses to stay and chat.Yuan Xingnian felt uncomfortable, and he hadn't sorted out his emotions yet, so he said goodbye to Junzheng when he promised to come back in the Reform Movement of [-].

When he left, he saw that it was still early, so he went to find Zhou Tong.In the end, she learned that Zhou Tong was practicing in seclusion again, and Yuan Xingnian couldn't help being puzzled that she was in such a hurry to increase her cultivation after she came out for a few days.Helpless, Yuan Xingnian had no choice but to go to Zhou Tong.The other party had obviously just had a full meal, and sat in front of the door with his teeth picked, smiling and greeting Yuan Xingnian when he saw Yuan Xingnian.

"Why, why don't you know how to ask your little Zhou master?"

Yuan Xingnian looked at him with raised eyebrows, resisted the sarcasm, and told about the encounter with Lu Fuling.

Zhou Tong didn't seem to care much, threw the bamboo stick aside, and said casually, "Hey, how could my sister like such a person, don't worry."

"Uncle Lu seems to... care about Zhao Pan," Yuan Xingnian frowned, and said slowly, "When Zhou Tong leaves the customs, you should remind her."

"It's okay, it's okay," Zhou Tong waved his hand, seeing Yuan Xingnian's expression of disapproval, he could only shrug his shoulders, "Okay, I'll tell her when she comes out."

Yuan Xingnian nodded, and when he was about to leave, Zhou Tong added with a smile, "Actually, even if my sister likes Zhao Pan, so what, unmarried men and unmarried women are saying that my sister is also in the late stage of foundation building, and is expected to Jin Dan, it's his luck to see Zhao Pan."

Yuan Xingnian paused, waved his hand silently and left.Generally speaking, monks live longer than ordinary people. Although Zhou Tong looks young on the outside, he is not a little older than Zhao Pan.He scratched his head, deciding not to get involved.Since his elder brother said so, he was a little relieved.
