Chapter 160: Girls’ Thoughts Are Hard to Understand
As soon as Maidong came in, he sat down, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it.
Seeing her like this, Lingxiang couldn't help but be curious: "What did you do? Why are you so thirsty?"
Maidong didn't say anything. He poured another cup of tea, gulped it down, let out a long sigh, and then answered Lingxiang's questions.
"I just smashed a set of Jade Flowing Cloud Tea Cups that belonged to my Fifth Uncle-Master. He chased me across several hills and I finally got rid of him after running for a long time. I was so tired."
Lingxiang was surprised when she heard this: "But is it the jade tea set you got from Heng Country?"
Mai Dong nodded, without a trace of shame on his face. Ling Xiang took a breath of cold air, pointed at her and said:
"You are dead. That was Fifth Senior Brother's favorite set of teacups. He never took them out to use on weekdays. He just kept them somewhere to play with. You actually broke them. This sect is so small. We will see them everywhere. Let's see how you will face them in the future."
But while Lingxiang was talking, Maidong was actually staring at Lingxiang and nodding constantly with a smile on his face. After Lingxiang said this, she looked at Maidong's eyes that were wide open and couldn't help laughing.
So during this warm spring time, one could only hear bursts of silver bells coming from Xianyunju.
Looking at the two women, Adao felt confused. He had clearly caused trouble, but these two women didn't care at all and treated the matter as a joke.
Women, they are really hard to understand...
Adao yawned, then lay down on his belly, and after a while, he began to snore.
Lingxiang found it funny when she thought of Master Zhaoming's furious look. Her fifth senior brother was good in every way except for one thing: he loved collecting things too much. He always treated these things as treasures and had to wipe them two or three times a day.
"But why did you go to your fifth uncle's place?"
Mai Dong sipped his tea and rolled his eyes as he said, "It's because I was bored. There's nothing important going on in the sect right now. Qiuyun Peak doesn't need my care. Even Xinyi is gone. I have nothing to do alone, so I thought of asking Fifth Uncle for some treasures to play with. But I slipped and dropped them."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and scratched A Dao's belly: "You don't know the color on Fifth Master's face at that time, it was really more exciting than that dye vat. I didn't mean it, he is so good, since he chased from Yu Cang Peak to Kuncheng Peak, he has run through half of the sect, and now I'm afraid he has gone to Qiuyun Peak to find my master."
Ling Xiang laughed so hard that she fell backwards. After a long while, she finally spoke: "Then it's not safe for you to hide here with me. If he doesn't see you at Prison Cloud Peak, he will definitely think of me. It won't be long before he comes to get you."
Mai Dong didn't seem to mind at all. He just waved his hand at Ling Xiang and said, "It's okay. I have all the senior brothers at Qiuyun Peak. They will definitely be able to help me stop them for a while. I can still take a good rest here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned on the table, propped his chin with one hand and sighed: "I don't know where Xinyi and the others will go to train, and how long it will take for them to come back."
Lingxiang glanced at Maidong, who was still looking out the door like he was in love with her, and cursed in her heart: You are such a rascal, I guess the jade teacup was just an excuse, this is your real purpose for hiding here...
"They did tell me where they were going before they left, but even if you knew, what can you do? Can you still go down the mountain to look for him?"
Mai Dong straightened up after hearing this, his eyes rolled, and then he scratched A Dao's belly and said, "What else can I do? Master will definitely not allow me to go down the mountain. I just said it casually. Knowing their itinerary will give me a better idea, right?"
Looking at Maidong pretending to be serious and indifferent, Lingxiang couldn't help laughing out loud.
Hearing Lingxiang laugh, Maidong realized that she was teasing him. He stood up and pretended to be angry and pushed Lingxiang: "You are so good, Lingxiang, you clearly saw through my thoughts, and you still tease me like this, you really deserve a beating!"
Lingxiang looked at Maidong who was angry and embarrassed, and she laughed even more widely. Even Adao, who was asleep, shuddered, looked at her with half-open eyes, and then went to meet Zhou Gong again.
"What did I see? I saw nothing!" Lingxiang still smiled heartlessly. Seeing her like this, Maidong was so angry that he wanted to slam the door and leave, but when he thought about not getting any information out of her, he had to take back the step he had just taken.
"You are a fool who has never understood anything. How can you understand a girl's mind?"
Hearing her complain like this, Lingxiang laughed even harder: "Yes, yes, I don't understand, it makes you sound like someone who is not a girl."
After hearing Lingxiang say this, Maidong couldn't help laughing, and then in Xianyunju in this warm spring of March, bursts of silver bell sounds were heard again.
At this time, Adao was too lazy to even lift his eyelids. He only thought that these two women were really crazy. They were not as dignified and quiet as his grandmother, which was what a woman should be like.
He smacked his lips, turned over, and went back to sleep.
After laughing, Mai Dong asked seriously, "Tell me the truth, do you know where Xin Yi went?"
"Why, do you really want to look for him?"
Maidong nodded when he heard this, but Lingxiang hesitated.
Since Mai Dong was brought to Yuanqing Sect by Master Fuyin, he rarely left the sect. Even when he went down the mountain, he only went to Youran Residence to help her take care of the spiritual plants. With her simple mind, if she went alone, she would be easily deceived.
But since she insists on doing this, why not...
"Not only is your master worried about letting you go down the mountain, but even I will not allow you to go out alone. But if you can play a trick with me, I will go with you to look for Xinyi. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Maidong understood what Lingxiang meant.
Ever since the last incident with Kunwu Sect, Master Fuyin seemed to have kept a closer eye on Lingxiang. Not only did he instruct the boy guarding the mountain to keep a close eye on the mountain gate and not allow Lingxiang to take even a single step out, he would also come to Xianyunju from time to time to check on Lingxiang to see if she was safe.
Although she didn't know what happened to Lingxiang and Master Fuyin in Tulun Mountain, she understood very well how it felt to be under surveillance.
……
The situation at Qiuyun Peak was in turmoil that day because Maidong left a letter saying that other disciples would go down the mountain to gain some experience, but she had never been out to see the world, so she ran out of the mountain gate without permission and is now missing.
When Master Fuyin heard the report from his disciple, he almost died of anger.
He was really overwhelmed. If he had to guard against one, he would not be able to guard against the other. He was only concerned about Lingxiang, but he did not expect Maidong to cause trouble for him.
Now, look what happened. She left a letter but didn't say where she was going, so even if we were to look for her, we wouldn't know where to go.
This Maidong has stayed in the sect since he was a child. He was brought up in the palm of his hand and has never experienced the dangers of the world. If he was deceived by someone, how could he be in trouble!
When he thought of this, even the highly skilled Master Fuyin became so anxious that his mouth was full of blisters.
