[Chapter 26 - Met a familiar person!] Someone wants to s.n.a.t.c.h Shen Xiao Shou!


As reality has shown for some time, brutal violence was indeed better than gentle education. Thus an hour later. Hua Tang contentedly went to the medicine room to prepare the medicine, while Bai Lian Hua had a b.l.o.o.d.y nose and a swollen face, and was viciously dragged back to the prison.


"Why can"t you people of the demonic sect be more open-minded/take things too seriously?" The guards reproached him while dragging him along, "You have to describe it sooner or later, why bother getting beat up?"


"That"s right, that"s right." The other man also chimed in, "The left chief is infamous for her brutality when beating people, say, aren"t you too unoccupied." 


"If she wants to ask again next time, don"t ever be like this anymore."


"It"s more important to protect one"s life; at this kind of time is integrity even wanted."


"You see, you are beaten here, it"s already purple."


.........


You people, quickly shut up.


Bai Lian Hua was sobbing and gasping.


The uprighteous sects were truly terrifying....


A night"s time quickly pa.s.sed by. On the bright morning of the second day, Shen Qian Ling was woken up by the sun"s glare.


"Morning." Qin Shao Yu pinched his nose.


".....Morning." Shen Qian Ling squinted, and barely opened a tiny slit.


Qin Shao Yu was teased into laughter by his look, "Do you still want to sleep?"


"Not sleeping anymore, I"m dizzy." Shen Qian Ling gathered the blankets and sat up, "Are we setting out today?"


"Of course not." Qin Shao Yu leaned against the headrest, "The cold poison has just flared up, we will rest two more days to avoid you getting ill again on the road."


Shen Qian Ling covered his face with the blanket, and sighed deeply.


Actually I wasn"t the delicate type originally.


Quickly return me my healthy body.


"What do you want to eat for breakfast?" Qin Shao Yu asked while helping him to pick some clothes.


"Simmer-fried spare ribs." Shen Qian Ling had a relatively weird habit, others wouldn’t have an appet.i.te when down with a cold, but he liked to eat meat instead.


Qin Shao Yu shook his head, "What are you eating ribs in the morning for."


"....Then poached chicken." Shen Qian Ling could only settle for the next best thing.


A moment later, he successfully obtained a small bowl of porridge and a plate of picked carrots, without even a single bit of ground meat.


Shen Qian Ling: "....."


Since I have no say then don"t ask me, to think you even seemed democratic.


"I have to go out to handle matters today, Hua Tang will stay behind to protect you." Qin Shao Yu helped him to stir the porridge, "Don"t run around after eating, go to the backyard, enjoy the sun, reads the books, I will come back as soon as possible."


"Where are you going?" Shen Qian Ling was curious.


"The village official is celebrating his old age, I"m going to take a look." Qin Shao Yu said.


Shen Qian Ling instantly looked at him with admiration in his eyes, you even want to join in this kind of event, this warrior you truly are a qualified organizer of the streets.


Qin Shao Yu pinched his cheeks, "What kind of expression is this."


Shen Qian Ling said sincerely, "Didn"t know you have such an interest." Going wherever there was a crowd.


"You think I want to go?" Qin Shao Yu fed him a bun, "If not for Master Li, don"t talk about the fiftieth birthday, I won"t go even if it"s his 500th birthday."


" 五百那是王八" Shen Qian Ling pouted, "Who is Master Li again?"

.......


In a rare moment, Qin Shao Yu"s expression twisted.


Yi yi, Shen Qian Ling"s interest was perked up, "Could they be a beauty who had run ins with you before?" Like Master Ceng that kind of big breasted sister.


Qin Shao Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, "You sure wish."


"Then who is it?" Shen Qian Ling had an unyielding drive to get to the bottom of this matter.


"He"s my teacher"s old friend, and taught me the Four Books and Five Cla.s.sics for some time, and is the uncle of the government official of this village." Qin Shao Yu said, "Although the things he taught were long winded and rotten, and mostly useless, but since we are here, I ought to go and visit him, and also prevent him from complaining to my teacher." Actually the main point is the last part, old fellows who are fond of complaining in private really makes one"s teeth itch.


"I want to go too." Shen Qian Ling was in high spirits.


"You?" Qin Shao Yu was slightly astounded.


"I can"t?" Shen Qian Ling became disappointed.


"Of course you can." Qin Shao Yu smirked, "Marital harmony, it"s within reason."


Shen Qian Ling: ".........."


Alright, on the account of getting to see the event, I won"t argue about the issue of being a couple with you.


The government official was from a very important and famous family in the city, thus this banquet was naturally very grandiose, with colorful streamers dancing in the air and firecrackers crackling in unison and beating of drums clamoring to the sky; it was so noisy that half the city had turned on its head.


"Sect leader of the Dominion of Shadow Chasers have arrived, the youngest master of Sun-Moon hamlet has arrived...." When Qin Shao Yu and Shen Qian Ling had just turned around the street corner, the housekeeper has already started shouting with all his might, and even shouted five, six times like a spoilt recitation machine.


But the people gathered nearby all expressed understanding, and even urged him to shout a few more times -- after all, with such special guests, it was not like just about anyone had the ability to invite them, it was not overkill to shout thirty, forty times.


Really, really makes one envy.

   

"Please alight from the horse." When the two of them finally entered the door, a servant boy quickly placed down the stool.


Ta Xue Bai proudly kicked out a hoof, and kicked the stool three meters away.


"Wow." Loud applause instantly erupted from the crowd.


Shen Qian Ling"s expression turned stiff, what was there to clap about.


Moreover you people aren"t even working during broad daylight, and instead runs to other people"s entrance to see what"s going on, and each one is more joyous than the one before.


Are your cultural and entertainment activities this barren.


Qin Shao Yu held tightly to his waist, leaped down from the horse, and landed smoothly on the red carpet.


"Good!" The crowd shouted in acclaim, their applause suddenly became even more intense.


Shen Qian Ling: "........"


This deplorable world.


As a well-known beauty, Shen Qian Ling was naturally somewhat more popular than Qin Shao Yu, and the simple and honest villagers, in order to express their excitement, had even long prepared all kinds of clean and pure flower petals.


Thus Shen Qian Ling, forced to hold hands with Qin Shao Yu, slowly made his way across the endless red carpet, and walked together towards the main hall of the village officer, it was practically the scene of a luxurious village wedding ceremony.


It was really deserving of getting a little angry over.


"Do you want to start fighting now?" After walking half of the way, Shen Qian Ling maintained his calm while asking from in between his clenched teeth.


The corner of Qin Shao Yu"s mouth curved, "These are all unarmed and defenseless commoners."


Shen Qian Ling, exasperated, "But they are throwing rice and soybeans on me." And are even hitting my face.


Qin Shao Yu had held in his laughter till his stomach hurt, "It"s to expel evil, everyone knew that you were injured a while before, and are helping you to drive away bad luck with good intentions."


Upon hearing this, Shen Qian Ling couldn"t help but get emotional.


If he had known this would happen, then he would rather stay inside to sleep than to come out. 

   

"Ai ya, sect leader Qin and Master Shen have personally honored us with your presence, light has been brought to my humble home." The village officer brought a large group of people and came out noisily, it was evident that he was very sincere.


"Lord Li exaggerates." Qin Shao Yu smiled from ear to ear, "My highly respected teacher is here, I ought to come."


"He he he he, sect leader Qin really knows how to joke." The village officer"s smile instantly turned stiff, "My surname is w.a.n.g."


Qin Shao Yu: "........."


Shen Qian Ling: "Pfft."


"I wonder where the respected teacher is now?" Qin Shao Yu had a rare moment of politeness. Actually, he was mainly afraid that Master Li would nag again, and he couldn’t  hit an old man either, just the thought of it made his head hurt.


The village officer quickly welcomed him into the foyer, a white-haired old man was sitting on a chair, drinking tea with a tremble.


"Respected teacher." Qin Shao Yu went and bowed to pay respect.


People were gathered around them and looking on, so Shen Qian Ling found it embarra.s.sing to just stand there, so he could only follow and bow in respect behind Qin Shao Yu.


It was extremely awkward.


The old man squinted and sized up the two of them, his expression mysterious and pensive, and didn"t talk for a long time. Just as Qin Shao Yu had exhausted his patience, they finally heard him ask blankly, "Who are you people?"


Qin Shao Yu: "......."


Shen Qian Ling: "......"


This warrior are you sure this is your teacher, did you recognize the wrong person?


"Master Li, he is sect leader Qin ah, Qin Shao Yu." The village officer quickly reminded by his ear and looked at the two of them in apology, “This respected uncle"s memory hasn"t been good recently, sect leader please overlook this."


"Lord Li is too courteous." Qin Shao Yu put on a fake smile, if I had known you couldn"t remember, then I wouldn"t have come.


Shen Qian Ling looked at the village officer, full of pity -- he still hasn‘t remembered that your surname is w.a.n.g.


The village officer chuckled dryly, it was evident he"s feeling bitter inside.


"Oh, it"s Shao Yu ah." Via the village officer"s reminder, Master Li finally had a sudden moment of realization.


Qin Shao Yu quickly displayed a smiling face.


"So big already." Master Li grabbed Shen Qian Ling"s hand.


Sect leader Qin"s smile froze on his face.


Shen Qian Ling quickly said, "This teacher, you have recognized the wrong person."


"You are not Shao Yu?" Master Li fell into bewilderment immediately, "Could you be Xiao Zhan?"


Shen Qian Ling: "......."


Who is Xiao Zhen I don"t know him, but speaking of him, his name does sound somewhat familiar?


"This Xiao has never expected that this teacher still remembers me." Candid laughter suddenly came from outside, "I"m really overwhelmed by this."


The village officer instantly open his mouth widely, and Shen Qian Ling was also startled inwardly, although he doesn"t know who the other party is, but this is probably "speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives"?


In the next second, a tall, strong man appeared at the door, and glanced at Shen Qian Ling profoundly.


"I know him?" Shen Qian Ling asked Qin Shao Yu quietly.


"You don"t." Qin Shao Yu shook his head.


"Didn"t think that Second master Xiao would have also came, this w.a.n.g is really, really..." The village officer was almost moved to tears.


"You think too much." Xiao Zhan was impatient, "Me coming has nothing to do you."


The smile of the village officer looked even worse than his crying, "Even if it"s for my respected uncle, this w.a.n.g is also thankful."


But Xiao Zhan really didn"t give him face, and continued bluntly, "Master Li was just on the way, I came for Ling-er originally."


Shen Qian Ling paled upon hearing it, "Me?"


Qin Shao Yu coldly snorted, his face pitch black.


"Been well recently?" Xiao Zhan was very gentle.


Shen Qian Ling glanced at Qin Shao Yu, and seeing that he had no intention of helping himself at all, he could only said honestly, "I won"t conceal it from you, I have lost my memories." So first introduce yourself, this n.o.ble warrior?


"This is also a good thing to have happened." Xiao Zhan wasn"t very shocked at this, and instead clapped his hands and said, "So as to avoid being hoodwinked by someone."


"Second master Xiao thinks too much." Qin Shao Yu"s voice was ice-cold, he reached out his hand and embrace Shen Qian Ling, "Ling-er already has a betrothal with me, no matter what happens to him, he will still belong to the Dominion of Shadow Chasers."


This melodramatic storyline was really....Shen Qian Ling was at a loss, he was fine with being a tool, but at least someone should come out and tell him what was happening right?


"What does a betrothal prove?" Xiao Zhan said in disdain, "Don"t talk about how he hasn"t married you, even if he had been married into the Dominion of Shadow Chasers, he will be mine sooner or later."


Your sister! Shen Qian Ling"s eyes widened, are you still concerned about human rights, I don"t even know who you are and will be yours sooner or later.


Thus he said angrily, "You quickly shut your mouth."


Qin Shao Yu smirked, visibly in high spirits.

    

"So fierce, you are actually more delightful than before." Xiao Zhen didn"t mind his bad att.i.tude, the affection in his eyes become even more intense instead, flames were practically almost coming out of them.


Shen Qian Ling swallowed his saliva.


Could it be that he met with the infamous m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t of legend?
