My enemies became my companions

Chapter 408 The beginning of love
During the days he stayed in Xuan Mansion, Lu Ying had a lot of free time.

It's said to be leisurely, but it's more like being left alone. I practice by myself in the guest room almost every day, and meals are delivered to me at a certain time.

The secret realm is about to open, and it is indeed time to practice hard. Lu Ying doesn't think this is bad, but he just feels a little empty in his heart for no reason.

Chen Yi accompanied Yin Weiying, and Yin Weiying was also obsessed with Chen Yi, making her, Lu Ying, seem like an outsider. Chen Yi did not take the initiative to talk to her, nor did he make jokes like he did in the past, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

But today, the three of them are going out together.

Yin Weiying deliberately wanted to warn Lu Ying, and she had all kinds of thoughts in her mind. She never dressed up. Not only that, in order to avoid exposing Chen Yi's identity, she also cast an illusion on herself. In the eyes of outsiders, she was not Yin Weiying, but just a Taoist nun with a plain appearance. However, in the eyes of Chen Yi and Lu Ying, she still had that pure and beautiful appearance.

Chen Yi's outfit is casual. He cares about the outfits of his wives and concubines. For example, when he takes Little Fox out, he will basically dress her up. But he doesn't care much about his own outfit and just makes do with what he has.

Early in the morning, before leaving, Chen Yi drew a lot in front of Lu Ying.

Another good fortune.

Lu Ying was very puzzled. He had drawn the best lot three times, not to mention the worst lot. He had never even drawn a winning lot. Why had their luck been so good recently?
Could it be that the lottery box contains only the best lots?
While thinking, Lu Ying looked up at the sky.

The sun is shining brightly and the cool autumn breeze is blowing. It is a good time to go out.

The play was booked at Yuanfeng Tower, the best theater in Shantong City, far better than Qingfeng Pavilion and with more historical heritage. The play was scheduled in the afternoon, just in time for them to finish touring Shantong City and go to the theater. The play was "Sifan".

Chen Yi didn't really understand what opera was. He had never been interested in opera. On the contrary, when Lu Ying found out about it, a strange look flashed across his eyes.

In any case, the three of them went out.

The terrain in Shantong City is complex and the streets and alleys are crisscrossed. The word "Shantong" is worthy of its name. Chen Yi had never walked around here with peace of mind before. After this visit, he realized the complex terrain of Shantong City. No wonder Gu Yanjian and a group of Western Jin spies could hide for so long.

The customs and practices in the Northwest are different from those in the capital.

On the street, scenes of couples meeting in secret are common. Men and women walk side by side, coming and going. The women here are all very fierce. When Chen Yi was walking on the road, a brothel girl on the upper floor of a roadside building took the initiative to solicit customers. When she saw that Chen Yi ignored her, she cursed under her breath. It was so exciting, saying that the girl was a silver-plated gun tip, which looked good but was useless. Yin Weiying moved his fingertips slightly, and with a plop, the sound of wrestling was heard.

"Are you using Taoism to bully others like this?" Chen Yi turned around and said with a smile.

Yin Weiying said calmly, "It's just because she said the wrong thing, saying that you look good but are useless."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a little more happy.
She was the only one in this city who knew how useful he was.

No one competed with her for it, and no one shared it with her. Here, it was the cauldron that belonged exclusively to her, the Fairy Yin.

With this thought in mind, Yin Weiying turned his eyes and glanced at Lu Ying. Inexplicably, the scene of Lu Ying and Chen Yi chasing each other in his memory was particularly glaring.

Lu Ying was looking into the distance and saw at the end of the long street, there was a shaman with disheveled hair and colorful clothes waving flags and singing something loudly. Behind him there was also a group of people in colorful clothes, singing and dancing.

The group of people were agile. Although their steps were not in sync, they danced to the beat of the drums. Two large flags were fluttering. On them were pictures, not words. They showed pictures of little kids crossing the bridge. It was a girl drowning, while a boy was crossing the bridge.

Wushu was originally the lowest class of the lowest class. After Lu Ying identified them, he couldn't help but despise them.

Yin Weiying also frowned slightly and said, "It is unreasonable to ask ghosts and gods for children."

Lu Ying saw the huge "Wang" character in front of him, and then made a connection with the words sung by the witch, and said, "The one who invited these witches is Wang Dan from Yuanfeng Tower."

"The lowest class, please be the lowest class."

Yin Weiying snorted disdainfully and took Lu Ying to the side street. He turned around to see how Chen Yi would react, but when he looked, he couldn't see anyone there.

call!
A small stone flew in the air, as if it was thrown casually on the roadside, and blocked the way ahead of the witch. The man in front of him did not lose his pace, but jumped and dodged the stone as nimbly as a rabbit. Then he subconsciously glanced around, trying to find out who threw the stone, but he couldn't find it no matter how hard he tried.

The group of shamans continued to sing and turned their heads back.

Chen Yi stood in front of the pancake stall. He hadn't eaten much in the morning, so he felt a little hungry now. He brushed the dust off his hands expressionlessly.

Yin Weiying finally found where Chen Yi was. The two girls and Lu Ying rushed over and heard Chen Yi buying cakes and saying:

"I want two mutton biscuits."

After Yin Weiying heard this, his eyes lit up slightly:
"It's so good, you buy it for me?"

"No, I want two."

As he spoke, he stacked the two cakes together and took a quick bite.

"You!" Yin Weiying was immediately furious, "Give it to me."

Chen Yi waved the cake with a bite missing in front of her and said with a smile:
"Can you eat my saliva?"

Do you think I don't dare? Yin Weiying muttered in his heart, I have kissed her countless times.

Seeing Chen Yi still eating the cake, she reached out to grab it.

Chen Yi flipped his wrist, and the two pancakes turned over like balls. Yin Weiying grabbed the empty space with one hand, and seeing the pancakes underneath, he reached down to grab them. But when he was about to grab them, the pancakes moved on their own, made a feint, and were lifted up high by Chen Yi again. The latter looked at Yin Weiying with a smile, as if to say: You can't catch them.

Yin Weiying was both angry and furious. He stopped snatching, put his hands down, and said in a low voice: "You...you just like to bully me." Chen Yi was still smiling, but his smile became gentler.

Lu Ying watched Chen Yi and Yin Weiying coming and going, and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

She lowered her head and asked for a pancake while the two were not paying attention.

The two were still confronting each other. Yin Weiying glanced at Chen Yi, the shame and anger in his eyes were obvious, and he stared at the pancake in his hand.

She said nothing, but just stretched out her hand. When she saw Chen Yi looking at her, she turned her face away, but still did not put down her hand.

Chen Yi's mood softened for a moment and he stopped teasing her and was about to hand her the pancake.

Yin Weiying saw this scene out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but be delighted. After all, he was doing what he wanted. No matter how he twisted his head around, it was nothing more than flirting.

A slightly sweet taste rose in her heart, and the woman's nose curled up slightly. Who told him to be obsessed with her taste? The pancake was slowly handed over...

Suddenly, a small hand blocked between the two of them.

Lu Ying tore off half of a new cake and handed it to him, saying, "Fellow Daoist Yin, this is for you. You don't have to fight with him for it."

Yin Weiying's face turned black and he felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten Coptis chinensis.

I'm not competing with him, I'm just flirting with him, can't you see?

But even if they were reluctant, they were still fellow Taoists after all. Yin Weiying maintained a gentle expression, took the pancake and said:
"It's not a fight, it's just a test of his character."

Lu Ying blinked and asked, "How was the test?"

"Childish and stingy." Yin Weiying said lightly.

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, put the pancake back, and laughed secretly.

The three of them ate pancakes on the roadside and then continued wandering around Shantong City.

After all, it was once prosperous. There were many shops in Shantong City, with a dazzling array of goods. The long pieces of silk brocade spread out were even more dazzling. After all, she was a woman. Even though she had been practicing Taoism in the mountains for a long time, Lu Ying was still reluctant to leave. When she saw those exquisite objects such as sachets and jade pendants, she even lingered a few more times.

Yin Weiying was keenly aware of this, his thoughts were in turmoil, and then he glanced at Chen Yi again.

Or you can buy something for him in front of Lu Ying.

Mark her so that Lu Ying will know that Chen Yi is her husband after all, and this will put an end to the fairy's thoughts.

With a thought in mind, Yin Weiying pulled Chen Yi to a jewelry shop.

"Where are you going?"

"Let's go over here and see what's interesting."

"As you wish."

Yin Weiying picked out jewelry for Chen Yi, and the shopkeeper put out all the pieces that she liked.

"How about this one?"

“Is this little gourd pretty?”

"A light blue necklace would be suitable."

When Lu Ying saw this scene, the autumn breeze blew past, and her heart suddenly felt sad for some reason. She just stood by the door and did not go in.

Yin Weiying turned his head and said with a smile, "Why don't you come in? Maybe I can pick out a few things for Fellow Daoist Lu that he likes."

Lu Ying opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say. He frowned slightly and shook his head.

Yin Weiying sighed calmly, "It turns out that there is nothing that Daoist Fellow Lu likes. What a pity."

After saying that, she turned around and continued to pick for Chen Yi.

Chen Yi, who used to get along well with her, now ignored her and was busy trying on jewelry. Lu Ying turned her head away and stopped looking at him. The bitterness came for no reason.

She just thought in her heart that Chen Yi was half a Taoist priest after all, and he was destined to live a carefree life. None of these things were suitable for this little junior brother.

The solitary crane loves quietness and peace; it flies here and there but never flies away.

“Neither one is suitable.”

The autumn wind blows, stirring people's hearts.
Lu Ying, whose heart is as calm as a crane, felt as if a red-crowned crane was singing by the water in his heart amidst the rushing wind...

But there was no other response from the crane.
