“Just by looking at me, do you feel relieved?”
“I’m different from Sanlang and the others. I’ve lived in the world for too long, and I know you humans very well. I have my own way of judging people.”
“Besides, I also saw your apostle – very few people would raise such a small child. The lynx is an apostle, and it is so beautiful.” Ah Qing glanced at Yuan Xiang’s shoulder and smiled softly, “A human mage may only take his true eye and refine it into a magic weapon. Most of the time, human beings are just enemies who can use us as tools and can kill at will.”
She nodded to Nan He, who was beside Yuan Xiang, “The Sirius tribe is the most arrogant but he is willing to be with you, so I don’t have anything to worry about anymore.”
Wu Yuan meowed unhappily, “You ignorant nine-tailed fox, you don’t even know the power I have.”
Hu Sanlang poked his head from the side and made a face at him.
Yuan Xiang scratched Wu Yuan’s chin soothingly, “Yes, yes, Ah Qing is not familiar with you, so she doesn’t know how good you are.”
Ah Qing also turned her head and explained to Sanlang, “With the Celestial Wolf Mountain nearby, full of spiritual energy, it is indeed much better for you than staying by my side. But since you want to live in the human world, you must restrain our clan’s habits a lot, and don’t cause too much trouble for Ah Xiang.”
Along the way, she told her a lot about Sanlang’s past.
“Ah Qing, you don’t seem to like humans very much, so why do you still live in this city?” Yuan Xiang asked.
Lady Qinghu lowered her eyes and walked a long way in silence. When Yuan Xiang thought she would not want to answer that question, she stopped, raised her head and looked in the distance, “Once, there was a beautiful mountain forest where I lived. The mountain was full of life and the stream was gurgling. There lived a powerful demon, who was very gentle and guarded me for a long time. The human beings there worshipped him as a god, built temples for him, and worshipped him with incense.” She recalled the past, her thin eyebrows became gentle, with a happy smile, she raised her sleeves to cover her lips, “At that time, I was still an ignorant little fox, often sneaking out of the house and in danger, he saved my life several times.”
“But one day, a very powerful mage appeared. He demolished the temple and drove us away. Even that lord was not his opponent. Instead, he… was chained by him in the formation, and was forced to be an apostle.” Ah Qing showed a sad look, “I also don’t have the ability to help the lord, so I can only find a way to live in a human town, be closer to the lord, and hope that he will occasionally hear my Qin to relieve some physical and mental pain.”
She held her pipa and stood in the snow, her thin eyebrows filled with silence.
At that moment, Yuan Xiang suddenly understood why her Qin sound could evoke people’s memories of the past. It was only because the deep nostalgia and longing in the performer’s heart passed from her string music, which resonated with the listeners.
“What kind of person is he?” Yuan Xiang asked unconsciously.
“Look at me,” Ah Qing hurriedly restrained her emotions and forced a smile, “I don’t know what’s wrong with me today. This is not something I can ask a little girl to help me with. Here in Jingdu there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons, it’s very complicated. You stay for one night and leave early tomorrow.”
Yuan Xiang and her party stayed at the inn for one night, got up early the next day, packed up and prepared to continue north.
Walking out of the gate of the inn, outside the door, there were carriages and flags, and two rows of attendants in fresh clothes were respectfully waiting there.
Yun Xuan, who had a fight on the way with her before, stood at the front of the team, wearing a white robe, a belt and a carved fur.
“Look, it’s Shifu Yunxuan.”
“Shifu Yunxuan? Where, where?”
“We saw Shifu Yunxuan today. What a blessing, today must be a good day.”
The guests also pushed open the windows one by one and stuck their heads out. Both men and women were excited.
When Yun Xuan saw Yuan Xiang come out, his face was a little unnatural, but he quickly stabilized his momentum, and politely walked forward and saluted her, “This fellow Taoist, I came here to invite you to Xianle Palace.”
Yuan Xiang was just pretending to be stupid before. She was not really ignorant of the world’s affairs. Although she didn’t understand why his Shifu invited her to the Xianle Palace of the Dongxuan Sect. But since she was politely invited, of course she also politely declined.
She gave a salute and said, “I’m really honored to be invited by your Shifu. It’s a pity that we have to hurry. We ask fellow Taoist to convey my words. When I come back to Jingdu, I will definitely come to visit the respected Shifu.”
Yun Xuan’s complexion changed. In his mind, the Shifu was like heaven. The Son of Heaven treated her with respect. He couldn’t believe that there were people in Jingdu who dared not respond to the Shifu’s call.
However, he still remembered Shifu’s explanation, suppressed his anger, and whispered to Yuan Xiang, “Shifu said, he is Yu Yao’s old friend, so he wanted to see you.”
Yuan Xiang raised her head instantly.
