Chapter 24: First
The latest chapter after wearing a white moonlight stand-in!
When Qiao arrived on Yuqing Peak late, Xiaohe led her directly to Zhou Yan.
The man is sitting at the table, playing chess alone against the chessboard on the table.
A peach blossom came in through the window.
Zhou Yan sat in a casual posture, his white hair was scattered, and his whole body showed a cold immortal temperament. His eyebrows and eyes looked a bit prettier than the peach blossoms outside the window.
I have to say, Master's old man's face is really attractive.
Last night, I accidentally broke Zhou Yan and Mu Xiaoxiao's affair, Qiao Wan felt a little embarrassed, but Master and his old man didn't care, of course she wouldn't talk about it, she could only pretend that nothing happened. The same, stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"Master asked the disciple to come, what is the order?"
In the world of comprehension, beautiful teenagers and beautiful girls are as worthless as cabbage on the street.
Before she regained her memory, before she went up the mountain, her imagination of "immortals" was actually very vague, but Zhou Yan was the first person to impress Qiao Wan's "immortals". It seemed that the immortals in the sky should be so beautiful.
Zhou Yan raised his eyes to see her, frowned slightly, looked at the chair opposite him, and motioned her to sit down.
Qiao Wan sat down, still didn't understand what Zhou Yan asked her to do, and felt a little uneasy.
"Accompany me for the next game." Zhou Yan said.
Qiao Wan picked up a white stone from the chess basket, glanced at the endgame on the chessboard, and landed a stone.
She used to only be able to play backgammon, and the reason why she can play Go is thanks to the hard work of her senior brother.
Thinking of the big brother, Qiao Wan was a little worried.
In the original book, Lu Bihan was trying to protect Mu Xiaoxiao and the other Kunshan disciples, desperately urging the practice, and was eventually crushed to death by the restrictions and stubborn diseases on his body.
From the time she went up the mountain to the present, Lu Bihan's physical condition not only did not improve, but seemed to be getting worse.
Of course she couldn't watch the elder brother die, but now she couldn't find any clue for a while.
When Qiao Wan was in a trance, Zhou Yan's thoughts were not on the chessboard.
After Lu Bihan brought Mu Xiaoxiao back yesterday, he protected Mu Xiaoxiao until dawn, without being distracted.
After Mu Xiaoxiao woke up and made sure she was safe, he coaxed her to continue sleeping. When the light broke, Zhou Yan came to the side hall and sat down alone.
He only had three apprentices, and Lu Bihan never asked her to bother, but Mu Xiaoxiao and Qiao Wan...
Zhou Yan was keenly aware of the vastly different personalities between the two, and some discord.
It is human nature to have disagreements between the two of them, and it all started because of him, but things have developed to this point. As a master, he still hopes to see his disciples get along in harmony.
When Xiaoxiao came back this time, she might feel a little uneasy in her heart lately.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan was a little embarrassed.
Although he brought Qiao Wan back, his contact with her was not very frequent.
He took her up the mountain because she was similar to Mu Xiaoxiao.
After Qiao Wan grew up, she had less contact with her because she was too similar to Mu Xiaoxiao.
His apprentice is always respectful, and there is no extra expression on his face. Compared with Xiaoxiao, it is inevitable to appear a little dull, and it also makes Zhou Yan feel...not knowing where to start.
He is not a talkative person, and when Qiao Wan and Zhou Yan are together, they are not as comfortable as they are with Lu Bihan, so they can only honestly restrain their desire to complain.
The master and apprentice had nothing to say and played chess with their heads sullen.
In fact, when Qiao Wan first joined Zhou Yan's family, she and Zhou Yan also had a harmonious and intimate time between master and apprentice.
Before Qiao Wan regained her memory, she was an ordinary village girl who could no longer be ordinary.
Her brother's man's mouth, a deceitful ghost, and her mother left forever. Qiao Wan has been thinking about how to avoid hunger every day since she was a child, and the only thing in her mind is the growth of the vegetables in her own field. How.
Carrying a **** in the morning to go out, carrying a **** back in the evening, weaving at night to do some needlework.
In order to save the money for the lamp oil, as soon as the dinner was over and the chopsticks were put aside, Qiao Wan ran to the house of the woman in the same village.
Fortunately, the villagers pity her young age and take good care of her.
Of course, there are also the gangsters in the village who are not cultivating and try to do something to her, but Qiao Wan tries to hide them.
Among the many village women, Qiao Wan, who grew up listening to the east and west, all kinds of gossip and dirty jokes, can imagine the level of knowledge and vision.
Although she was only ten years old and nodded, at that time she had already thought, to get married soon, appearance is not important, as long as the family is a little better.
In fact, Qiao Wan was too embarrassed to admit that she had seen Lu Tieniu from the Lu family in the village before.
And that Lu Tie Niu still despised her! What I like is the widow with a thin waist and a big chest from the Li family at the head of the village!
Of course, she fell in love with Pei Chunzheng later, and that was another matter.
Just when she was thinking about how to hook up with Lu Tieniu, Zhou Yan found her.
Zhou Yan was the one who took her to knock on the gate of immortality and set foot on the road to immortality.
No need to worry about the harvest in the fields, how much the fabric can be sold for, and how much tax the government will collect.
In front of her is the avenue of longevity with the sword intent and the mighty mountains and rivers.
Qiao Wan has always been very grateful to Zhou Yan.
If he hadn't brought herself back to Kunshan, she would have been married now, and she would have been able to see her head at a glance in her entire life.
Marry a villager and have one, two, three, four, five or six children.
Before Zhou Yan took her out of the small village, held her hand, and took her to Kunshan, the time on the road was when she and Zhou Yan were the closest.
Zhou Yan does not accept apprentices easily. Like most of Xianxiawen's masters, her master also maintains the character of the protagonist's master, and will never accept apprentices easily.
As soon as Zhou Yan accepted the apprentice, everyone in Kunshan wondered what kind of new apprentice he had accepted, so that he could follow Mu Xiaoxiao and enter Zhou Yan's eyes.
As a result, it was unexpected.
Poor qualifications.
The face, and Mu Xiaoxiao are almost imaginary, but it is a bit ugly.
Rolling in the fields for many years, Qiao Wan was malnourished at that time, thin and thin, with calluses all over her fingers, and her hair was yellow and yellow like withered grass, and she was tanned.
In the world of self-cultivation where beauties gather, Ugly is indeed a bit fresh and refined.
Qiao Wan is also puzzled now, how did Zhou Yan see that she looked like Mu Xiaoxiao.
In addition to being ugly and having poor aptitude, after going up the mountain, the more time she spends with her, the big and small problems on her body are also exposed.
For example, illiterate, blurted out swear words, full of dirty jokes, stingy and vain, and shallow eyelids.
Simply put, it's nothing.
Now that I think about it, Qiao Wan is a bit wanting to cry without tears.
Before the time-travel, she was still a **** female college student at school. After the time-travel, she became an illiterate who couldn't read the characters, and couldn't even read Taoist books and swordsmen.
This is simply unbearable!
Her words were taught to her by the senior brother. The senior brother was able to correct her hard, and it was really not easy to teach her to be like this.
Zhou Yan is one of the peak masters of the Twelve Peaks of Kunshan, a monk in the transformation period, and a sword fairy in the world. After understanding the gap between himself and others, Qiao Wan inevitably felt a little inferior.
She really stepped on **** luck to be able to worship Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan treats her very well. Although she left her to the senior brother when she returned to Kunshan, she can use the magic weapon and medicine as she likes.
At that time, Qiao Wan was working hard, hoping to get Zhou Yan's approval. Zhou Yan's inadvertent frown could make her worry for a long time.
At that time, she didn't know that she was Mu Xiaoxiao's stand-in.
It wasn't until the master, his old man, who was drunk one day, took her as Mu Xiaoxiao in his dream, and murmured Mu Xiaoxiao's name, Qiao Wan didn't realize his identity, that is, the substitute of senior sister.
It doesn't matter if her own value is erased, as long as she doesn't live up to the expectations of her teacher.
But after a long time, Qiao Wan only found out that Zhou Yan knew her qualifications and roots, and had no expectations for her from the beginning.
This is a sad story for those who hear it and tears for those who see it.
"Your senior sister, she just came back from the Bone Shattered Abyss." Zhou Yan twitched a chess piece and finally said, "You..."
"Don't think too much."
"You and your brothers and sisters are my apprentices." Zhou Yan lowered his head, and the hair on his cheeks fell.
What happened yesterday was not her fault. In the end, it was him who was confused.
Thinking of yesterday, Zhou Yan's body froze unconsciously, and after a while, he slowly relaxed.
After more than 30 years of getting along, how could he have no feelings for Qiao Wan.
The two played chess with their heads down for a while. Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the hall, and Mu Xiaoxiao walked in barefoot.
"Master."
The girl rubbed her sleepy eyes, yawned sleepily, glanced at Qiao Wan who was sitting opposite Zhou Yan, her eyes widened in surprise, "Junior Sister Wan'er?"
Perhaps thinking of what happened yesterday on Qinghuan Peak, Mu Xiaoxiao looked a little embarrassed, and looking at Qiao Wan's eyes was a little unclear and complicated.
"Why did you get up?" Zhou Yan dropped the chess piece and glanced at her bare feet.
"Where are your socks?"
"Because I didn't see Master when I woke up." The girl lowered her eyes embarrassedly, "I hurried here and forgot to wear it."
"I didn't expect Master to hide here and play chess with Junior Sister Wan'er."
Mu Xiaoxiao blushed and said, "I'll go back to wash up now, Master and Junior Sister, wait for me for a while."
After he finished speaking, he stepped on the ground and ran out again.
After a while, he changed into a water blue dress and returned to the temple.
The girl wore a jet-black bun, her expression was no longer as embarrassed as yesterday, her eyes were bright, her lips were as pink as peaches, and when she smiled, she looked like a beautiful and white porcelain doll.
While Qiao Wan was looking at Mu Xiaoxiao, Mu Xiaoxiao was also quietly looking at Qiao Wan.
When she thought of the scene on Qinghuan Peak yesterday, she felt a little pantothenic in her eyes. Even if the senior brother and Xiao Fenghuang and Pei Chun were fighting to save her, she was still so embarrassed that she wanted to cry.
why.
Why is this happening.
Why is she not as late as Qiao, why Ma Huaizhen treats her differently but treats herself so rudely.
Mu Xiaoxiao twisted the corner of his clothes, thinking gloomily in his heart.
But she still has to go to class with Qiao Wan today.
she is afraid...
She was afraid of being replaced by Qiao Wan.
She had to see clearly what the status of Qiao Wancai's other classmates was in order to feel at ease.
When Mu Xiaoxiao went to wash up, Qiao Wan and Zhou Yan didn't play chess. After Mu Xiaoxiao washed up, Zhou Yan briefly explained why she called her over.
Joe didn't respond for a while.
Mu Xiaoxiao wants to go to class with her?
To be honest, there is no need for Mu Xiaoxiao's qualification to go to Changhong Cliff with her for class, not to mention that the poison on her body has not been cured.
Seeing the change in Qiao Wan's face, Zhou Yan asked, "You don't want to?"
"If Junior Sister is unwilling, then forget it." Mu Xiaoxiao said cautiously.
Qiao Wan raised her eyes and could only see her master's smooth, white and graceful jaw.
Qiao Wan shook her head, "This disciple is not unwilling."
Zhou Yan frowned and sighed, "I know what you're thinking, I can only trouble you to take care of your senior sister today."
"Let's go." Zhou Yan turned to look at Mu Xiaoxiao and nodded at Mu Xiaoxiao.
Seeing Qiao Wan's promise, Mu Xiao laughed and immediately burst into laughter like a bird.
The skirt drew a line in the air.
The young girl stood in front of Qiao Wan, smiling warmly at her, "Junior sister, where are we going today?"
Seeing the stark contrast between the two, Zhou Yan sighed in his heart, waved his hands to tell them both to retreat, propped his forehead, and closed his eyes in thought.
In the future, the two brothers and sisters will inevitably continue to get along. At that time, he may have to mention Qiao Wanyi or two.
Along the way, Mu Xiaoxiao's face had disappeared from yesterday's panic and embarrassment, and a small smile appeared on her cheeks.
"Junior sister... The relationship with Hall Master Ma must be very close." Mu Xiaoxiao asked intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a hint of loss in his words.
Qiao Wan: "The relationship between me and the Hall Master Ma is not what other people think. It's just that I usually go to the World Hall more often, so I have become familiar with the Hall Master."
"I don't know how many disciples have gone to the world." Mu Xiaoxiao obviously didn't believe what she said and shook his head, "But I have never seen Hall Master Ma treat any disciple like this."
"The relationship between junior sister and senior is really enviable, not like me."
"I don't know what impression I have in the eyes of the hall master. That's why senior thinks of me like that."
The girl dropped her eyelashes in despair.
"I don't think it's a good impression."
With these words, Qiao Wan did not continue.
She is not like Ma Huaizhen, who regrets Mu Xiaoxiao's aptitude.
To be honest, Qiao Wan really envied Mu Xiaoxiao. It's kind of like the grief of a 9-to-5 social animal.
She is also envious of the second generation of demolition who sit at home and eat rent.
She has no big ambitions. If she has this condition, she also wants to be a salted fish that will be eaten and waited to die.
It's a pity that not everyone can have such a thing as a heroine's life.
Although she also had such bigwigs as her master, the old master, the senior brother, and Ma Huaizhen, Qiao Wan thought about it carefully and was embarrassed to hug others' thighs.
Thinking is one thing, doing it is another.
On the one hand, it is unstable, and on the other hand, the degree of shame is too high.
Whether it is a past life or this life, relying on yourself is always the safest. Even if she can hold any thighs, she really can't turn herself into a pendant, strung between the big guys' legs every day.
Mu Xiaoxiao raised his head and said with a blushing face, "Sorry, I accidentally said so much in front of my junior sister, I am a person who can't keep words on weekdays, and what I think in my heart, I often say it directly. Come out, I hope Junior Sister doesn't mind."
Qiao Wan shook her head, "Senior sister is outspoken, why would I mind."
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her arm lightly, and smiled again with her eyebrows bent.
Along the way, most of the topics revolved around Ma Huaizhen.
Qiao Wan didn't quite understand what Mu Xiaoxiao was going to do at first, but when Mu Xiaoxiao asked what Ma Huaizhen liked and hated, Qiao Wan's mind turned, and a bold guess appeared in her heart.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled at her... Could it be that he wanted to attack Ma Huaizhen?
It seems... not impossible.
After thinking about it, Qiao stayed for a while.
