Chapter 57
It was already time to leave Ling Xizi's residence. Nanfeng did not go up the mountain immediately, but came to Yin and Yang Square and sat down under the stone sign in front of the square.
When the night wind blows, the south wind feels the coldness of the bones. The reason for deducing the truth does not make him happy at all, but makes him feel scared and scared. He desperately wants to leave here. Taiqing Mountain is the temple of the immortal family and the ancestral courtyard of Taiqing Mountain, but this is not a pure place. At this time, the evil people in Taiqing Mountain are in the way, and staying here is like being in a tiger's den and dragon pond. You need to be careful in everything and beware of it at all times. If you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces.
It is very easy to leave Taiqing Mountain. He doesn't even have to pack up his things and go to Dongshan to take out the tortoise shell and get on the road.
It is very difficult to leave Taiqing Mountain. If the other party finds that he has left the mountain, he will understand that the matter has been exposed. The other party has more than 20 Ziqi True People with cultivation above the mountain, and thousands of Taoists. He can use the power of the entire sect to arrest him. Even if he leaves Taiqing Mountain, he will be caught by the other party soon. Once he is caught, it will no longer be a beauty trick. Waiting for beating and torture.
Besides, just leave like this, what should Tianqizi and others do?
Judging from the time when Ling Yanzi appeared, his identity was exposed not long after he entered the mountain. He still didn't know how the other party learned about his identity, but the biggest possibility was that among the few people who participated in the questioning of him that day, there was another party's eyeliner. Tianqizi and others still didn't know about this, so they had to try to tell Tianqizi about this. Others were worried. At present, he only believed in Tianqizi.
But Tianqizi was not in the mountains at this time, so he could only stay on the mountain and wait for Tianqizi to come back.
"Nanfeng, why are you sitting here?" A figure appeared outside the mountain gate.
If it were half a day before, he would be very happy to hear this sound, but at this time the sound made him shudder and he didn't even dare to turn his head.
Seeing that Nanfeng had no reaction, Ling Yanzi shouted again, "Nanfeng?"
Nan Feng turned his head when he heard the sound and saw Ling Yanzi slowly walking towards this place from the road, wearing casual clothes and holding a cloth bag in his hand.
"Senior Sister, what have you done?" Nan Feng tried his best to calm his mind, but his voice was still trembling.
"I have always dreamed of Lingjizi these days, so I went down the mountain to buy some incense and candles to burn it with her." Ling Yanzi replied.
Nanfeng nodded. He didn't believe Ling Yanzi's words. It was no coincidence that Ling Yanzi appeared here. She was always looking for an opportunity to get closer to him. It seemed like a coincidence tonight, but it was very likely that someone saw him sitting here and notified Ling Yanzi. Ling Yanzi hurriedly went down the mountain, took a walk on the main road, and then returned to the mountain from the main road.
"What happened? Why is your face so ugly?" Ling Yanzi walked to Nanfeng and stopped.
Nanfeng lowered his head and said nothing. He was still too young. Although he could deduce the truth of the matter, he could not show any expression. He was afraid of Ling Yanzi now and didn't even dare to look at her.
"What's wrong?" Ling Yanzi squatted down.
Nanfeng still didn't answer, and he was wondering how to answer.
"Nan Feng?" Ling Yanzi reached out and put his hand on his shoulder.
The south wind was frightened and shuddered.
Seeing Nanfeng's behavior abnormally, Ling Yanzi showed doubts, "What's wrong with you?"
Nan Feng was afraid that Ling Yanzi would be suspicious and calmed down, "Senior sister, can you sit with me for a while?"
Ling Yanzi naturally would not refuse. She sat down from Nanfeng, put the cloth bag on her knees, tilted her head and said softly, "Your face is wrong, what's wrong? Is anyone angry with you?"
Nanfeng did not go down the donkey. Ling Yanzi was testing him. If he made up casually, Ling Yanzi would definitely verify it. Once he found out that he was lying, he would immediately feel alert.
"Senior sister, can you share some of your incense and candle?" Nan Feng was so excited that Ling Yanzi had already discovered that something was wrong with him. In order not to make the other party suspicious, he had to find an excuse for himself to be depressed.
"It's all right, who do you want to pay tribute to?" Ling Yanzi asked.
Nanfeng shook his head.
"Your parents?" Ling Yanzi asked.
Nanfeng shook his head again, "You know I am an orphan, and I don't even know who my parents are, how can I pay tribute to them?"
"Then who do you want to pay tribute to?" Ling Yanzi asked.
"Benefactor." Nan Feng said. At this time, the other party already knew his relationship with Tian Yuanzi, and at this time last year, he happened to be with Tian Yuanzi.
Ling Yanzi nodded, untied the cloth bag, took out a stack of paper money and two incense candles from it and handed it to Nanfeng, "It is not advisable to sacrifice before the mountain gate, go to the edge of the forest."
Nanfeng took the paper money and walked west.
"Go over there." Ling Yanzi reached out and grabbed Nanfeng and thrust his mouth to the east.
The south wind had become a frightened bird. Seeing Ling Yanzi signaling to go east, he subconsciously thought of the tortoise shell hidden in the mountains.
"Then is too far, it's nearby." Ling Yanzi explained softly.
After Nanfeng nodded, he followed Ling Yanzi to the east and stopped from the edge of the forest. He never brought the fire twister, and Ling Yanzi never brought it. Ling Yanzi asked Nanfeng to stay here and borrow it himself.
Nanfeng watched Ling Yanzi go north, feeling relieved and worried. He could think about how to deal with it while Ling Yanzi was leaving, but he was worried that Ling Yanzi would go to Ling Xizi to borrow fire twists. If Ling Xizi talks too much, Ling Yanzi might be suspicious.
He came to whatever he was afraid of. Ling Yanzi really went to the residence of Zhikedao people, and he pushed Ling Xizi's door, but he didn't push it open and changed to another family.
Only then did Nanfeng withdraw his gaze and think of countermeasures.
Even if you don’t want to stay here, you should not leave Taiqing Mountain immediately. You have to wait for Tianqizi to come back to make a long-term plan.
Although the other party knew that he knew the Taixuan scriptures, he was not in a hurry to obtain them. In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, the other party put in a slow effort and sent Ling Yanzi to cheat with the beauty trick.
At the moment, he could only pretend to be ignorant, use his tricks, stabilize the other party as much as possible and delay time.
To do this, you have to make the other party mistakenly think that the beauty trick is effective, and being closer to Ling Yanzi is the best way to confuse the enemy.
When Ling Yanzi borrowed the fire and twisted it back, Nan Feng had already thought of a countermeasure, took the fire and twisted it, lit the incense candle, and burned it with branches.
The incense, candle, paper money turned into ashes from the fire. Nanfeng remembered his deceased master Tian Yuanzi. At this time last year, he and Tian Yuanzi had left Chang'an. If there were no Tian Yuanzi, he should have been wandering at this time. Tian Yuanzi not only taught him nine true scriptures, but also left him a lot of teachings and three advices. Although he was in danger at this time and might lose his life at any time, he did not resent Tian Yuanzi. He was only grateful to Tian Yuanzi. If there were no such master, who would have regarded him as a beggar?
When Nanfeng burned the incense and candles, Ling Yanzi was also doing the same thing not far away. When Nanfeng tilted his head, he felt palpitations. Although Ling Yanzi did not kill Ling Jizi with his own hands, he was accomplice. At this time, burning incense and paper to commemorate the memory, how hypocritical it is.
Ling Yanzi burned the incense and candle and came to Nanfeng. "There are many good people in the world who live short and live long, but those who do evil will have more lives. It is really unfair."
"Senior sister, is there a spell that can bring back the dead?" Nan Feng asked.
"Why is this question?" Ling Yanzi asked.
Nanfeng shook his head and did not answer.
Ling Yanzi said, "Man's blessings, fortunes and longevity are controlled by the Yinshu of Heaven. Although Taoists have obtained mysterious and wonderful methods, they cannot change them at will."
Nanfeng nodded, "Senior sister, is it a good or a bad thing to be valued?"
"God has burdens, things have gains and losses, and everything has pros and cons." Ling Yanzi replied.
Nanfeng nodded again. People generally believe that good people are smart and bad people are stupid. In fact, the fact is the opposite. Most bad people are smart because fools cannot deceive others.
"Senior sister, will you leave Taiqing Sect in the future?" Nan Feng asked again.
"I am not a personal disciple of the head sect. Although I have been observing the Tao for life, I will not be able to obtain the magical methods of the real person. One day I will leave the mountain and enter the world." Ling Yanzi replied softly.
"I won't let you go." Nan Feng said seriously.
"Hmm?" Ling Yanzi tilted his head and looked sideways.
"This, it's cold." Nanfeng pretended to be speechless and stood up straight, "Senior sister, let's go back to the mountain."
Ling Yanzi nodded and agreed, traveling north to the mountain. Nanfeng did not talk to Ling Yanzi again on the way back. If Ling Yanzi was an outsider, he would definitely not understand what he was saying, but Ling Yanzi was an insider. He knew who he was paying homage to, and why he asked those questions. He could understand his seemingly distorted words, "I won't let you go" to teach her the scriptures above the mountain.
All of these are his delaying strategies, which must make Ling Yanzi hopeful, or to be precise, the enemy hopeful.
After returning to the mountain, the two of them returned to their residences. Nanfeng lay on the bed, looking at the roof. Although he noticed the other party's conspiracy and began to use tricks, he also knew very well that the so-called tricks were just delaying the army. He and Tianqizi and others who supported him did not have the strength to turn defeat into victory. In the end, he could not become the head of Taiqing. The best result was to save his life.
