Why do they always want me to change my filial piety?

During the words, her figure disappeared again.

This time, she was so fast that she disappeared into the shadows almost instantly.

At a glance, the entire courtyard is her afterimage.

I saw her sometimes disappearing into the shadow, sometimes coming out of the shadow, slowly approaching Lu Ran.

For some reason, Lu Ran looked at the scene in front of him and thought of the game of whack-a-mole.

While his thoughts were running, the three-foot sword light in his hand turned, and it was actually covered with a layer of frost, and he swung it towards the ground!

"Crack...knock..."

In an instant, with Lu Ran as the center, the cold wind raged, and the icy chill spread rapidly.

Wherever it passed, the ground paved with bluestone turned into ice.

This is definitely Dong Zang in the Four Seasons Sword Intent!

"boom!"

Under the Dongzang sword intent that enveloped the audience, Ling'er's feet were frozen, unable to dive into the shadow again, her face turned pale from fright, and she immediately used force Gu to break free, but found that her body was also Covered with a layer of frost.

Lian'er's beautiful eyes widened, not daring to suppress her cultivation anymore, and instantly shattered the ice layer on her body

"Don't fight, don't fight!"

"Your sword intent is too terrifying, isn't it?"

"Using only the cultivation of the Yuan Condensation Realm, I'm afraid I can kill the monks in the Five Zang Realm!"

If it was later, she might have turned into an ice sculpture.

"Miss Ling'er still has two Gu's unused power."

"If it is used, the battle situation is hard to say."

Lu Ran shook his head, all the chill in the courtyard was absorbed, and the three-foot sword rainbow in his hand was dissipated.

He spoke the truth, not falsehood.

Ling'er didn't use the power of those two Gu, probably because she didn't want to expose this secret.

Chapter 62 Don't seek longevity, only peace of mind!

"However, Ling'er, come here and try the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my concubine!"

A soft and sweet sound came from the ear.

In the gazebo, Qu Qirong, who had changed into a long ink-colored dress, waved to Lu Ran and Ling'er.

As he approached Ling'er, his eyes fell on her, and a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.

The beautiful jade face does not wear makeup, but it is still as gorgeous as peaches and plums, the beautiful eyes seem to contain a pool of autumn water, the long hair is still a little wet, and the whole body exudes an intoxicating fragrance.

"Aunt Rong, are you feeling better?"

Lu Ran sat on the stone chair and looked at Qu Qirong.

After removing the mind-controlling Gu, Aunt Rong, who had bathed, was completely cleansed and showed a bare face, as if she had rejuvenated, revealing an elegant and soft, with an intoxicating familiar charm, so beautiful that it was shocking.

"En!" Qu Qirong smiled and nodded slightly.

"That's great!" Lu Ran was really happy for her!

On the side, Ling'er, who was stuffing delicate cakes into her mouth, moved her eyes back and forth between the two of them.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but after pulling out the mind control Gu, she found that his wife looked at Lu Ran a little strangely.

In the past, it was the kindness of the elders towards the younger generation, but now besides this kindness, there are also some feelings that she doesn't understand.

"However, try this sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Aunt Rong made it herself."

Qu Qirong picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of pastry, and placed it on Lu Ran's bowl.

Lu Ran lowered his head and took a sip, his eyes lit up immediately.

Immediately, the rich scent of sweet-scented osmanthus swept over the taste buds, sweet but not greasy, crisp but not mushy, very delicious.

Qu Qirong smiled softly: "How?"

"Delicious! Aunt Rong has such skills." Lu Ran nodded, a little surprised.

As a foodie, he thinks that something delicious must be really delicious.

"Eat more if it tastes good!" Qu Qirong was very grateful for Lu Ran's praise

Ling'er licked off the pastry foam from the corner of her lips, and asked with insatiable interest: "Madam, is there any more?"

Lu Ran, who had just eaten a piece, looked down and was stunned!

I saw that the plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake that was just full was empty at some point.

After confirming his eyes, this little black skin in southern Xinjiang is a foodie.

If you put her together with the big loli Li Shishi and the little fox Yingying, they should be good friends at the dinner table.

Qu Qirong slightly parted her red lips and said, "There is still in the kitchen, Ling'er, go and bring it out!"

"Okay!" Ling'er looked happy, and hurried to the kitchen, for fear that if she was late, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake would be eaten by someone.

With her appearance like this, she was more excited than inviting Lu Ran to fight before. Obviously, food was also ranked first for this little black skin in southern Xinjiang.

Qu Qirong looked away from Ling'er's back and landed on Lu Ran: "Ran'er, why did you step into cultivation?"

Lu Ran pondered for a while before raising his head: "In order to be able to do whatever I want, and to protect the people I care about."

Qu Qirong was surprised: "Don't you want to live forever?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Why don't you ask?"

Lu Ran took a sip of the tea, and looked towards the lotus pond, where a group of koi were playing and singing.

"Actually, what I want is very simple. I don't want longevity, but peace of mind!"

"Like a koi in a pond, although life is extremely short, every day is carefree and free."

"How many people who are dedicated to pursuing longevity and vision can succeed?"

"In the end, relatives, friends, and confidantes left one by one, but I became a lonely family in the end. Even if I was unwilling in the end, it was just a cup of loess."

He had already understood this when he stepped into the practice.

It is all false to say that you don't want to live forever.

But what if he really lived forever?

Everyone who cared about has already left, so what's the point of such a long life?

After hearing these words, Qu Qirong's smile became more charming, and she asked with some concern: "Among those who care, is Aunt Rong?"

"Aunt Rong is inside!" Meeting her gaze, Lu Ran gave an affirmative answer.

"En!" Qu Qirong's heart was warm, and the strange feeling that had sprouted was growing.

Lu Ran asked curiously, "Then why did Aunt Rong step into practice?"

Qu Qirong thought about it for a while, and said quietly: "I started to practice cultivation only because of my father's request."

Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, and then continued: "Actually, I have never thought about longevity and long-term vision. I just want to spend my life in an ordinary way."

"Marry someone you like, spend time with him, and give birth to a filial baby like Ran'er, who will help you husband and teach your children!"

"Unfortunately... things backfired!"

Qu Qirong looked back, and found that all the roads she walked were completed in an orderly manner under the arrangement of her family.

Stepped into practice, learned business ways, became the wife of the suzerain, and was finally given up!

She has never disobeyed everything arranged by the family.

It's not that she doesn't want to, but that she clearly knows that even if she doesn't want to, she can't resist!

Until now, the mind-controlling Gu has been pulled out, and she is no longer a marionette, but a person with self-awareness.

Lu Ran asked with some distress: "Has Aunt Rong thought about leaving the family?"

"It's useless to leave!"

"With the power of the Lingbao Sect, even if I leave, I will be arrested soon."

Qu Qirong's expression was flat, revealing the darkness in it.

Either she had never tried to escape, or during that escape, she met Lu Ran's mother and concubine, met her only friend, and even married Jinlan.

After that, he was quickly brought back by the strong in the family.

From then on, Qu Qirong understood that it was useless to leave.

Her thoughts stopped here, her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she seemed to be talking to herself: "So, I don't plan to leave."

"They want to control me, so let's see who controls whom in the end!"

Lu Ran looked at her thoughtfully, "If Aunt Rong needs me, just speak out!"

"But you've already helped Aunt Rong a lot!"

"Let Aunt Rong take care of the rest."

Qu Qirong suppressed the haze in her heart and said softly.

No matter who it is, including her, they don't want to show their bad or dark side in front of the people they care about.

It just so happened that what she was going to do next was to use some dark and ruthless means.

Qu Qirong changed the subject appropriately: "By the way, I have finished reading that "A Chinese Journey to the West", but do you have any other books?"

"I still have three books here, which should be enough for Aunt Rong to read for a while!"

Lu Ran took out the book from the big loli Li Shishi from the ring.

"Aunt Rong, you seem to like stories about love?"

"Because I haven't experienced it before, I yearn for it!" Qu Qirong brushed up her long hair and randomly picked up one of them.

Lu Ran smiled without saying a word, explaining things in the book to her from time to time, as a filial piety!

Talking about homework, talking about stories, eating some pastries, and teaching sketching by hand, he and her spent a peaceful and fulfilling day like this.

Chapter 63 Aunt Rong's Indulgence

At night, the cicadas chirp!

A round of bright moon rose from the transparent clouds like cicada's wings, sprinkled silver light, and covered the entire Xiaoxiang Yayuan.

At this moment, in Qu Qirong's boudoir.

She was leaning against the moonlight shining in from the window, reading the book Lu Ran gave her.

When reading humorous and interesting plots, the plump red lips will evoke a beautiful arc.

When she read the depressive plot on her back, she frowned for a while, and her red lips were pursed tightly, obviously already brought into it.

Boom... Boom!

"lady!"

At this moment, a crisp sound came from outside the door.

"Come in!" Qu Qirong didn't look up, her mind was still in the book.

Qing'er walked in, put a few brocade boxes on the table, and looked at her: "Madam, according to Mr. Lu's drawings, the two pieces of clothing have already been made!"

"There are several styles of different colors in here, and Madam needs to have a look."

Qu Qirong raised her head slightly, and asked: "Have you done what my concubine told you?"

Qing'er replied: "Elder Huang has been asked to take action to monitor every move of Qu Yun's mother and son."

"If there is any action in the clan, we must always pay attention!"

"Yes, ma'am!" Qing'er saluted respectfully, turned and left the room, and closed the door.
