Chapter 42.The city lord is...jealous?

After laughing, Lu Xiaofeng took out an object from his bosom and threw it to Junxuan.

"Well, the little Taoist aunt is happy for her birthday. I don't have anything very good here. This is a whip made of fire python skin that I hunted when I was young. Although you use a sword, all martial arts in the world are classified into one. This thing is also light, in case someone unloads your sword that day, it can be regarded as a weapon to resist."

Lu Xiaofeng said it very lightly, but in fact the fire python is a rare spiritual creature in a hundred years, it only grows in the southern border, it feeds on humans, and it is extremely ferocious.The fire python skin is extremely tough and cannot be broken by a sword.Moreover, the fire python skin also has the miraculous effect of keeping out the cold. When counting nine cold days, as long as you carry a small piece in your pocket, your whole body will be warm.

The one that Lu Xiaofeng met back then was also killed by him after a narrow escape.After peeling the snake's skin, Lu Xiaofeng asked his friend Miaoshou boss Zhu Ting to make a whip. This whip is a bit different from ordinary whips. It fits very well when wrapped around the arm. Even if he is wearing a thin summer shirt, there is no trace of it. .

He has kept this fire python whip carefully, but now it is given to Jun Xuan.Lu Xiaofeng is an old man, he knows that Junxuan's sword skills are exquisite, but the world is unpredictable, this little girl is always on the edge of danger, if someone really wants to deal with her, it will be very bad if she uses her sword .

Lu Xiaofeng gave Junxuan this whip in order to "keep a hand" for her in case of accidents.

Jun Xuan raised his hand to receive the whip thrown by Lu Xiaofeng, and looked at it curiously for a while, as if he didn't know how to use it.When Lu Xiaofeng saw it, he pulled Jun Xuan over, wiped her sleeve up, and helped her wrap it around her arm with two or three strokes.

Lu Xiaofeng's movements were too fast, and Lu Xiaofeng himself only thought of Jun Xuan as a slut, and had no concept of male and female defense, so even he himself hardly felt anything wrong.

The reason why it was almost... was because Ye Gucheng's cold eyes were so existential, that Lu Xiaofeng let go of his hand in fright, and instantly retreated to a place five steps away from Junxuan.

Xue Bing's eyes flicked back and forth among the three of them, and he couldn't help but smile at Ye Gucheng a little narrowly.

Going to Jun Xuan's side, she also took out a plain white long silk, which looked pure white, but was embroidered with delicate cloud patterns with silver thread.

While wrapping her arms around Junxuan's waist to help her tie it, she said: "Xuanxuan, I see that you have quite a lot of white clothes, so I asked my grandma to make this for you. This long damask is mixed with gold-patterned snow silk. It is invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, it can be used as a weapon, and it dances beautifully, much more practical than Lu Xiaofeng's whip."

As he said that, Xue Bing took a special look at Lu Xiaofeng, his eyes full of provocation.

You can't argue with a little girl, facing Xue Bing's provocation, Lu Xiaofeng could only touch his beard and smile helplessly.

Ye Gucheng is very sure that Xue Bing is a girl, and he also knows that it is rare for his junior sister to have a boudoir close friend of similar age.However, looking at the girl who always wanted to pounce on his junior sister, Ye Gucheng still couldn't help frowning.

Reaching out to pull Junxuan to the side, Ye Gucheng slightly nodded at Xue Bing and said, "Miss Xue has a heart."

If the city lord's face was not so cold, maybe this thank you would be more sincere.

Xue Bing may not have met many men, but he knows that there is only one situation that can make a man show such a forbearing and aggrieved expression, and that is... him!eat!vinegar!up!

It was funny in his heart, but Xue Bing accepted it as soon as he saw it - after all, Baiyun City Lord is not someone who can be teased by others.Xue Bing quickly reached out and pinched Jun Xuan's soft face, then retreated behind Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou.

Huamanlou couldn't see Ye Gucheng's face, but felt the cold air from him. "Looking" at the girl who hid behind him and Lu Xiaofeng, he took advantage of the situation and walked in front of Jun Xuan.

Stretching out his hand to Junxuan, he handed a red sandalwood box, and said in a warm voice: "This is the anti-drug pearl that Wu Ge got from trading in the Western Regions in the early years, and later he used the prescription of a genius doctor to cook nine times and soak it nine times. It is an ordinary anesthetic spring ... Cough, in short, the effect of avoiding poison is very good. My little aunt walks in the rivers and lakes, just wear self-defense. If you are really plotted against by villains, crushing it and swallowing it can also alleviate the poison."

After Hua Manlou became blind, the brothers of the Hua family searched all over for him to protect himself, and this poison-avoiding bead was the hardest to come by.Hua Manlou thought that Jun Xuan was always more dangerous than him alone in Jianghu, so after discussing with Fifth Brother, he gave this item as a gift.

But Jun Xuan hastily waved his hands, refusing to accept.

"Qitong is also from the rivers and lakes." The little girl just said a simple sentence, but her face was firm and undeniable.People's emotions are mutual, even though Jun Xuan is cold by nature, he is not a heartless person.She is very grateful for the protection of the Hua family for her, Hua Manlou is blind, and obviously needs this poison avoiding pearl even more.

Hua Manlou is always gentle, but this time he hangs the knotted anti-drug beads on Jun Xuan's waist.

Lu Xiaofeng also chimed in and said, "Little Taoist nun, just accept your nephew's wishes. How can there be any poison in the world that can escape Huamanlou's nose?"

Really unable to refuse, Jun Xuan bit his lip, finally thanked him, and accepted the things.However, she secretly decided in her heart to find a better way to avoid poison for Qitong.

At this time, Ximen Chuuxue, who had been silently watching their laughter, also came over.Lu Xiaofeng glanced at him and joked: "I said Ximen, if you also give the little nun a gift, you have to hurry up, dinner will be served soon."

Ximen Chuuxue raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, then just picked up a long box from the table and handed it to Jun Xuan.

"Soft sword. It's not difficult to learn by analogy." Ximen Chuuxue has always been reticent, and he didn't talk much this time.

The long box was opened, and inside was a soft sword no longer than two feet long.The whole body of the soft sword is white, as soft as silk.However, it only needs to spit out the inner strength, and the seemingly soft dagger will be as tough as fine steel.

Ximen Chuuxue, Lu Xiaofeng, Xue Bing and Huamanlou Jueji didn't discuss what gift to give Junxuan, but they all chose concealed and light weapons or self-defense.They know that Jun Xuan has entered the Jianghu, and they are both from the Jianghu, so they can only try their best to help Jun Xuan protect himself - they cannot persuade Jun Xuan to stay away from the Jianghu, so only the more things this little girl holds in her hands, can their relatives and friends The more at ease.

Everyone present gave gifts to Junxuan, but Ye Gucheng remained silent.In the end, all eyes fell on Ye Gucheng.

Ye Gucheng was dressed in white, with two long swords behind him.Everyone present could recognize it except Hua Manlou. Among the two swords, one was Ye Gucheng's long sword with a black scabbard, while the other belonged to Jun Xuan.

He walked up to Jun Xuan, leaned over and hung a snow-white jade pendant on her.I don't know what kind of material the jade pendant is made of, but there is a fiery red cloud pattern in the middle.

Ye Gucheng raised his hand to caress the pearl hairpin in Junxuan's hair, and said, "This is the key to the inner treasury of Baiyun City." Then, he held up the jade pendant around Junxuan's waist, and said, "This is the order of the Lord of Baiyun City." .”

Everyone present couldn't help holding their breath.

In the silence, Ye Gucheng's voice was suddenly mixed with indelible tenderness.He gently caressed the little girl's face, and said with a three-pointed smile: "Xuan'er, I want to hire you all over the city, are you willing?"

Jun Xuan stared blankly at Ye Gucheng, and then suddenly smiled after a while.She put her arms around Ye Gucheng's neck, leaned close to his ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Didn't Senior Brother say that you want to wait for me to grow up?" There was a bit of anger in her tone, but it was rare The tenderness of the youngest daughter.

Ye Gucheng raised the corners of his lips, and hugged the little girl even tighter.

At this moment, the real Taiyin opened the door and came in, glanced at the two disciples and grandchildren who were huddled together, she rolled her eyes, and then said to the rest: "Let's go, the children are hungry after working all morning. Right? Let's go eat."

Urged by the elders, everyone didn't delay any longer, and went to the back hall of Lingyun Temple to have dinner with Daoist Taiyin.

It was Mid-Autumn Festival and Jun Xuan's birthday, everyone was in high spirits, and after a while, the banquet was filled with the sound of toasting.Even with the three natural air-conditioners of Junxuan, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue, but with Lu Xiaofeng and several young masters of the Hua family present, the atmosphere in the back hall is still very lively, and there are often cheerful laughter of men and women.

When the banquet was full of wine, the door of the back hall was knocked suddenly.Two little Taoist boys went to open the door, and saw a group of people carrying more than [-] redwood boxes.They did not enter the back hall, but stopped in the courtyard of Lingyun Temple.After those people put [-] mahogany boxes on the ground, they heard a female voice coming from the group of people.

"Ouyang Qing complied with the master's order, and presented 80 taels of dart silver stolen by the embroidered thieves to congratulate Miss Jun on her birthday."

As she spoke, she saw a woman in red bowing to Jun Xuan Yingying outside the back hall, and the men who came with her also knelt down on one knee, and said in unison, "I wish Miss Jun a happy birthday."

Jun Xuan frowned slightly, but still walked out of the back hall.She glanced over the mahogany boxes in a courtyard, and said to Ouyang Qing: "Aren't you from the red shoes?"

Ouyang Qing saluted Jun Xuan again, and said with a soft smile: "The master of the maidservant is someone else, the girl will know in the future." Thanks to Baiyun City Lord for not killing him that day."

Jun Xuan nodded slightly, and really didn't want to delve into it further.She only said to Ouyang Qing: "Thank you, your master, for me."

Ouyang Qing said: "My master said that he is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, Miss Jun don't have to worry about it." She made a gesture and quickly retreated out together with the team of men.

Jun Xuan didn't stop her either, because she saw the figure who appeared with Ouyang Qing just now.It was a woman in a blue Taoist robe, her whole body was pure, except for a straight purple jade hairpin on her head.

The person who came was actually Jiang Qingxia.She looked thinner than before, but there was inexplicable relaxation in her expression.She made a Taoist salute to Jun Xuan, and said "Friend Jun Dao" as if she had just met him for the first time.

Jun Xuan also returns a salute.

Jiang Qingxia did not enter Lingyun Temple, but stood far outside Lingyun Temple.She just said softly: "Your Daoist Jun has a happy birthday." Then she turned around and left without saying anything else.

Jun Xuan was a little confused, but Lu Xiaofeng who came out said: "She was poisoned by Jin Jiuling and needs to take antidote regularly. After Jin Jiuling was brought to justice, I searched his residence. The antidote he left was only enough for Jiang Qingxia to survive." It has been three years. Now that she has left the red shoes, and time is running out, she has left Bixia Nunnery, and wants to spend an ordinary life with Jiang Chongwei."

With a touch of emotion, Lu Xiaofeng continued: "I only found out later that Jiang Chongwei is not her brother, but her fiancé. There were some things that happened to the two of them before that they couldn't be together, but now, those are not important."

Saying that, Lu Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and patted Jun Xuan's shoulder, as if he wanted to say a lot to her, but he didn't say anything in the end.Waved his hand casually, Lu Xiaofeng yelled again: "Okay, okay, you got so much money, why don't you hurry up and invite me to have another drink?"

Jun Xuan turned around following Lu Xiaofeng, but his eyes fell on the man in white who was sitting upright in the hall.Ye Gucheng's gaze never left Junxuan. Amidst the hustle and bustle, the two raised their eyes to stare at each other, and finally burst into a smile that only each other knew.

Fortunately, they never thought of letting go of each other.It is a lucky thing to be able to know each other along the way.
