The Suzerain's wife, who had been dead for ten years, was reborn

Chapter 13

Qi Zhi followed Shang Yanfu back to the small courtyard, and Xiang'er was still sitting in the courtyard choosing vegetables, seeing the two of them coming in one after the other, she hurriedly got up, and then Qi Zhi waved her at her to let her continue to do her own work.

Shang Yanfu didn't care about her either, but went straight to the chair in the room and sat down.

Xiang'er poked her head outside, and when she saw Shang Yanfu sitting down, she hurriedly poured a cup of tea, put it in front of her, and backed out.

Shang Yanfu looked at Qizhi, lowered his eyebrows and took a sip of hot tea, and said slowly: "In the future, they should not bully you again."

Qi Zhi blinked his eyes and didn't say anything, just looked at Shang Yanfu vigorously.

In Qi Zhi's impression, this woman Shang Yanfu only has three characteristics, one is extremely strong, the other is extremely beautiful, and the third is extremely inhuman.

But today Shang Yanfu actually vented his anger for her in front of so many fellow students, which really surprised Qi Zhi.

Shang Yanfu naturally felt Qizhi's curious gaze, she looked up at Qizhi and said, "What are you doing looking at me?"

"It's nothing." Qi Zhi said, "I just thought you would speak for me, which is really surprising."

"You will form a bond with me in the future, how can I let other people bully you."

Shang Yanfu looked at Qizhi and was silent for a long time before saying, "Actually, I should have stood up earlier."

Today, when she heard that Xu Qingzhou was going to give lessons to Qi Zhi and their outer disciples, she had a bad feeling. When she came over, she saw Xu Qingzhou finding fault.

In fact, according to Shang Yanfu's seniority, as long as she appeared on the stage, no one would make irresponsible remarks, but she watched Qi Zhi confidently use more than a dozen methods to make Xu Qingzhou speechless. Very relieved.

Qi Zhi didn't know this, but she still said, "Thank you for today."

Shang Yanfu looked at her, his eyes softened a lot, he rubbed the tea bowl for a while and said, "You and I don't need to be so polite."

Seeing Shang Yanfu lowering his brows and eyes, Qi Zhi couldn't help being a little dazed.

One must know that Shang Yanfu is a beautiful woman, no wonder Yuanshen has liked her for so long.

only……

Qi Zhi looked at Shang Yanfu, but still asked, "Shang Yanfu, can I ask you something?"

Shang Yanfu nodded: "Go ahead."

"Because my memory is not very good recently, I always forget a lot of things." Qi Zhi said to her: "I want to ask you if you remember, what forbidden technique do I know?"

"Forbidden technique?" Shang Yanfu pondered for a long time before saying: "Every family has secret techniques that cannot be passed on to the outside world, especially big families have their own set of inheritance."

"You mean, I might pray for the family's forbidden technique?"

"There's nothing unexpected about that either."

Shang Yanfu looked at her and said, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Qizhi sloppyly said, "Just asking casually."

Seeing that she didn't have the same attitude towards him before, Shang Yanfu said to Qi Zhi: "Speaking of which, I haven't apologized to you for what happened a few days ago."

Qi Zhi looked at her inexplicably.

"Don't you remember?" Shang Yanfu said uncomfortably, "I was in retreat some time ago, and you came to give me something the other day."

As the most potential disciple of the Nine Swords in the inner sect, Shang Yanfu is really talented and hardworking. She has practiced to the eighth level at a young age, and she has almost completely surpassed her master and the elders in the sect.

But Shang Yanfu is a very strong person, she can break through the eighth floor, so naturally she wants to break through the ninth floor.

But how can these nine layers be broken through with just a few words?

Shang Yanfu practiced hard for a year but still could not reach the ninth floor, plus the five-yearly Four Seas Tournament was getting closer and closer, she became even more impetuous.

Later, Shang Yanfu simply went into seclusion, trying to break through the ninth floor without eating or drinking.

One level is a whole month.

A few days ago, Yuanshen made Shang Yanfu's favorite dessert, and planned to visit him.

She hadn't seen Shang Yanfu for a long time.

When Qi Zhi came to Shang Yanfu's closed courtyard, he was stopped by Yuanyang.

"Miss Qizhi, Miss is currently in retreat, so please don't disturb me," Yuanyang said.

Qizhi smiled awkwardly, and she picked up the food box and said to Yuanyang: "I made Yanfu's favorite snack, she must be tired after retreating for so long, I want to see her."

Yuanyang naturally knew the relationship between the two of them, and also knew how difficult it was for Qi Zhi and Shang Yan to be together, so after thinking about it, she still didn't stop her and let her into the yard.

When Shang Yanfu opened his eyes, he saw Qi Zhi standing in front of him holding a small food box.

"Yanfu." Qizhi said hesitantly, "You must have worked hard without leaving the house for so long. I brought you some of your favorite snacks, so you can take a rest."

Shang Yanfu looked at the exquisite snacks in the dishes, instead of feeling happy, he became even more irritable.

She stared at Qi Zhi coldly and said, "You clearly know that I've been fasted, why are you giving me these things?"

Qi Zhi stood in front of Shang Yanfu in a daze, holding hands somewhat at a loss.

Because Shang Yanfu still couldn't break through the ninth floor, he was very irritable. Seeing Qi Zhi like this, he was even more angry, and his tone became much sharper.

"How did you get in? I don't like being disturbed when I'm in retreat, don't you know?" Shang Yan's anger sank, all the pastries were overturned, and the exquisite pastries rolled into a mess.

A pink cherry blossom-shaped pastry rolled to Qizhi's feet, whirled and stopped.

Qizhi bent down to pick it up, but Shang Yanfu swung it aside with his palm.

Shang Yan stared at her displeasedly: "It's fine if you don't seek to make progress, I must break through the ninth floor, get out now!"

Qizhi's magic power was low, but being frightened by Shang Yanfu made his heart hurt like a needle prick.

She didn't look at Shang Yanfu, because Qi Zhi didn't dare to look into her eyes.

She has seen that look too many times, from others, from relatives, from Shang Yanfu.

Contempt, ridicule, disgust.

Pray she doesn't want to watch...

"Yanfu." Qi Zhi looked at the cup of dim sum she had overturned on the ground, and asked softly: "Is it true that you will only be happy if you break through the ninth floor?"

Shang Yanfu didn't understand why Qizhi said that, but she only hesitated for a moment before impatiently saying: "That's right, my goal now is to break through the ninth floor, and I don't want to care about the rest."

Qi Zhi nodded, said with a wry smile: "I know, today... I passed the time, I just want to see you."

Shang Yanfu didn't speak, just looked at Qi Zhi quietly, did she feel that what she just said was too serious?

But Qizhi soon raised the corners of her lips and smiled, and she said to Shang Yanfu: "You will definitely be able to break through the ninth floor, I... I won't bother you for now."

Seeing Qi Zhi leave, Shang Yanfu felt as if something was missing in her heart for some reason, but she was so preoccupied with how to break through the ninth floor that she didn't pay attention at all.

And that night, Shang Yanfu broke through the ninth level of kung fu that hadn't been broken through for more than a year, and successfully passed the test.

Hearing this, Qi Zhi frowned slightly.

Shang Yanfu's understated words amplified the uneasiness in Qi Zhi's heart, and she hurriedly asked, "When was the day you broke through the ninth floor?"

Shang Yanfu looked at her, thought for a while and said, "Half a month ago, on the 27th of last month, what happened?"

The heart of praying became more and more heavy, because that day happened to be the day when she entered this body, that is, the day when the original body prayed to perform the forbidden technique, and her soul disappeared.

how come……?

Qizhi really can't believe it, why would someone be willing to use forbidden techniques to help others break through the skills?

She looked at Shang Yanfu, subconsciously took two steps back, and put a distance away from her.

Shang Yanfu looked at her movements very puzzled, and the vague uneasiness in her heart resurfaced again. She frowned and looked at Qi Zhi, and asked, "What's wrong? Why... look at me like that?"

Qi Zhi didn't speak, she really didn't know how to explain to Shang Yanfu.

The Qizhi you knew died to help you break through the exercises, and now the Qizhi is a stranger who has been dead for ten years.

I can't say...

"You go."

Qi Zhi didn't go to see her, but stood sideways by the door and said to Shang Yanfu, "I don't want to see you today."

Shang Yan got up and walked to her side, trying to hold Qi Zhi's hand, but she hid him.

"Why do you hide from me?" Shang Yanfu looked at her quietly: "I was in a bad mood that day, and I said a lot of unpleasant things to you, I am not humiliating you, pray...you can accept my apology Is it?"

Qi Zhi looked at the woman in front of her, she suddenly felt that Shang Yanfu was the most pitiful person.

She could see that Shang Yanfu had a heart for praying, at least he still cared.

But this apology was never heard by that person again.

"No need." Qi Zhi looked at Shang Yanfu and said, "You go, we should not meet again during this time."

Shang Yanfu still wanted to say something, but Qizhi turned his head and walked out.

It's not that Qi Zhi is cruel, but that she has no way to face Shang Yanfu.

How would she tell Shang Yanfu that she was not praying and would never accept Shang Yanfu's apology on her behalf?

The feeling of colic in the heart is not comfortable. Qizhi suddenly thought of herself ten years ago. At that time, she was also like this. She lost herself in order to like people, and was finally nailed to Duxiantai. Come see her one last time.

It was bleak.

Both of them are so miserable.

Qi Zhi felt blocked, she seemed to be able to feel the sadness of the original body, as if she had experienced it herself.

Sitting quietly by the pool, Qi Zhi looked at the clear water in front of him, his head was in a mess.

Xianglian, who had been silent all this time, sighed leisurely at this moment, and said to Qi Zhi: "Death is like a lamp going out, don't pay too much attention to it."

"How could I not care?" Qizhi stretched out her hand to cover her chest, feeling the warm beating, and said to Xianglian, "Tell me, when she died, was she happy or sad?"

Xianglian didn't answer her, but asked instead: "What about you? When you died, were you sad?"

"forgotten……"

Qi Zhi closed her eyes, feeling the beating of her heart: "It seems sad, at that time I thought I would be with her forever."

But how could there be so many things in the world that she thought?

Therefore, if Tingshuang doesn't love her, he doesn't love her, and the result of reluctance is to die.

"But I seem to be luckier than her." Qi Zhi opened his eyes and said softly: "I want to do for her what she didn't do."
