Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 437 - Miss Kou

镇海楼所在中岛,并不对外开放,因此他们只能到达前岛.

The Calming Sea House is not opened to the public, thus they could only alight at an island that’s at the front.

齐笙挥退上来接待的知客,说道:”你们的住处,早就安排好了,我先带你们去安顿一下.”

Qi Sheng dismisses the help of a disciple who came up to help and turned to Lu Mingshu and Yuan Rong.

“Your rooms have been prepared, let me show you there.”

这次寿宴,天海阁原本没想大办,不料那么多人闻风而动,客院都是临时腾出来的.听寇威说她会来,齐笙特意费心挑了个好院子,风景好又清净,离中心也近.

This celebration is not planned to be a big event, but due to the news spreading fast, they have to prepare the guest houses at the very last minute.

Hearing from Kou Wei that Lu Mingshu would be attending, Qi Sheng deliberately chose a good courtyard for her.

One that’s quiet and paired with good scenery.

It is also near to the heart of Heavenly Sea Pavillion too.

把两人带到客院,他出去等候的时间里,元榕小声道:”陆师姐,天海阁不愧是三大派之一,这位齐师兄看着平平常常的,居然也是出神境.”

After sending the pair to the guest house, Qi Sheng stood outside to wait.

^ As soon as he could no longer be seen, Yuan Rong went up to Lu Mingshu^ and whispered.

“Senior sister Lu, the Heavenly sea Pavillion is indeed one of the top three sects.

Even senior brother Qi who looks ordinary is a spirit realm too!”

陆明舒打开行李,说道:”别看他没架子,论起身份可不平常.”

Lu Mingshu proceeds to unpack her bag.

“He may seem to be easy of approach, but he has a special identity.”

齐笙名声不显,实力也算不多高,但他是天海阁药师一派最具天分的弟子.

Qi Sheng may not be famous, nor a powerful cultivator.

But he is the most talented medicine disciple in Heavenly Sea Pavillion.

“这样啊!”元榕想了想,又说,”我们下船到现在,这么短的路程,就看到三个出神境,二十四个融合境,只有干洒扫这些杂活的才是内息境以下,还是很多呢!”

“Oh, I see!” Yuan Rong pondered.

“After we left the boat, we have met three spirit realms so far, twenty-four harmonization realm.

Those who were doing miscellaneous chores are inner breath realm and below!”

陆明舒停下手中的动作,看向她.

Lu Mingshu stopped in her tracks and stared at Yuan Rong.

元榕被她看得有些不安:”师姐,我…我说错了?”

Having stared at, Yong Rong felt extremely uncomfortable.

“Senior sister, did…did I say something wrong?”

陆明舒的目光有些难辨,缓缓道:”没有.”就是因为没有才吃惊.

It’s difficult to tell what’s in Lu Mingshu’s mind.

Lu Mingshu paused for a moment before shaking her head.

“No.” And that shocked Yuan Rong.

她目光一扫,抓起棋案上的棋子:”看这里.”

She glanced around the room and picked un the chess placed on the table.

“Look here.”

“啊?哦.”元榕不明所以.

“Ah?

Oh.” Yuan Rong stared at her hand, confused.

陆明舒伸手一抛,数十颗棋子全部脱手,又飞快地挥袖一扫,将棋子全部收入袖中.

Lu Mingshu tossed the chess up into the air and grabbed them back in a split second.

“看清了吗?刚才有多少颗棋子?”

“Have you saw it?

How many are there?”

“嗯…”元榕回想了一下,”二,二十七颗!”

“Uh….” Yuan Rong tried to recall.

“Twenty…twenty-seven!”

陆明舒垂下眼皮,将袖中的棋子随手倒在案上,拿起棋盒,往上一抛.棋子一颗颗飞出,瞬间整个屋子都是.刻意等了一瞬,然后将之收回.

Lu Mingshu place the chess she held back into the box they were in and toss the whole box in the air.

The chess pieces were everywhere around the air.

Lu Mingshu purposely stopped for a moment before taking them back.

“多少颗?”

“How many are there?”

“一百五十一颗.”元榕的语气很肯定.

“A hundred and fifty.” Yuan Rong said firmly.

陆明舒一颗颗收拾好棋子,默不作声.

Lu Mingshu placed the chess pieces back into the box silently.

“师姐?”元榕被她弄糊涂了.说是考验吧,怎么也没说她通过没?

“Senior sister?” Yuan Rong stares at her in confusion.

~If it’s a test, why did she not tell me if I passed or not?~

陆明舒道:”人在外面等,快些换衣服出去吧.”

“Hurry up and change.

He’s outside waiting for us.”

“哦…”

“Oh….”

齐笙看到她们出来,笑道:”我已经通知寇师兄了,他正好有空.陆姑娘,我们这就去?”

“I have already informed senior brother Kou.

Since he is free, let’s go over now, shall we?”

“好.”

“Okay.”

齐笙一声呼哨,一只飞禽落下来,停在他们面前.

Qi Sheng whistled and a bird [not a bird, but an imaginary animal under the same class, what should I address it as?

No given name] landed right in front of them.

这飞禽体形硕大,却很温顺,背上安了座椅,用来载人.

It’s gigantic, yet gentle.

There’s a mount on it, showing that it’s used to ferry humans.

“两位请.”

“Please.”

乘着飞禽,大约一刻钟后,往一座云雾环绕的小岛落下.

After an hour of the ride, they landed on an island covered with clouds.

“齐师兄,这不会就是灵均岛吧?”元榕好奇地问.

“Senior brother Qi, is this the Spirit Jun island?” Yuan Rong asked.

齐笙笑道:”当然不是.灵均岛很大,离得也远.这里是寇师兄的别居,近年师兄不常回去,多数住这里.”

“No.” Qi sheng laughed.

“The Spirit Jun Island is way bigger and further away.

This is another place where Senior Brother Kou stay over here when he does not return.”

“哦…”

“Oh…..”

他们一落地,就有一名圆脸少女大叫着跑过来:”齐师叔!”

Once they dismount, a girl with chubby face come running towards them.

“Senior uncle Qi!”

齐笙看到她,脸上也露出笑来,对她们介绍:”这是寇师兄的侄女儿菁菁.”

Seeing her, Qi Sheng is full of smiles too.

He turned around and introduced her.

“Senior brother Kou’s niece, Jingjing.”

说话间,寇菁菁已经跑到了,见她欲往自己身上扑,齐笙忙不迭地闪避,口中叫道:”菁菁!你都是大姑娘了.”

Within no time, Kou Jingjing is already right in front of them.

Realising that she’s going to pounce onto him, Qi Sheng dodged and chided.

“Jingjing!

You are not a child anymore!”

寇菁菁嘟着嘴,不太高兴地停下来:”哼!真没劲!五叔是这样,你也这样!”

Kou Jingjing pouted and stopped on her tracks unwillingly.

“Hmmph!

You and fifth uncle are both no fun!”

“有客人在呢!”齐笙端起脸斥道,奈何他长了一张娃娃脸,怎么端还是不够威严.

“There are visitors!” Qi Sheng hissed, looking at her sternly.

However, with his baby face, no matter how hard he tries, he still does not look serious.

寇菁菁这才发现他带了人,看到陆明舒和元榕,眼睛滴溜溜转着:”咦,两位漂亮姐姐是谁呀!”颇有”齐师叔你不老实”的意思.

Than Kou Jingjing realised that there’s someone here with him.

Seeing Lu Mingshu and Yuan Rong, she stared at them with bright eyes.

“Oh, there’s two pretty sisters over here!” She then turned to Qi Sheng, looking at him with the looks of “Senior uncle Qi, you’re bad huh?”

“没规矩!”齐笙笑骂,”这是九瑶宫的陆长老,你也要叫师叔的.这位是她师妹.”

“Rude!” Qi Sheng laughed softly.

“This is elder Lu from Nine Jade Palace, you should address her as senior aunt, and this is her junior sister.”

“陆长老!啊!”寇菁菁拍手,”你就是那个麒麟会上大发神威,把我五叔揍倒的陆明舒!对不对?”

“Elder Lu?

Ah!” Kou Jingjing clapped.

“You’re the Lu Mingshu that defeated my fifth uncle during the Qilin festival, am I right?”

陆明舒点了点头:”寇姑娘.”

“Miss Kou.” Lu Mingshu nodded.

本以为这位寇姑娘对她印象不大好,所以才直呼其名,反正自己也不在意一个小姑娘的敌视,便坦然回应.不想,得到她的确认,寇菁菁叫了一声,又想往前扑:”陆姐姐,请受我一拜!”被齐笙及时揪住了.

Originally, Lu Mingshu thought that Miss Kou dislike her, thus she called her by her full name.

She doesn’t mind how a girl looks at her anyway.

But after receiving her confirmation, she did not expect Kou Jingjing shrieked to drop to the ground.

“SIster Lu, please accept my salute!” And Qi Sheng pulled her back immediately.

齐笙满头大汗,对陆明舒歉意地笑:”这丫头,老是看些闲书,脑子跟常人不太一样,你别在意.”

Drenched in sweat, Qi sheng turned to Lu Mingshu, smiling apologetically.

“Please do not mind her.

She’s abit weird due to reading too many unhealthy books.”

寇菁菁被他揪着直扑腾,想推开他奈何手太短,只能叫道:”齐师叔!你说什么呢?我是真心崇拜陆姐姐!哼,五叔总是一副’我好厉害你们打不过我’的样子好讨厌,总算有人能收拾他啦!”

Hearing Qi Sheng, Kou Jingjing burst into anger.

She tried to push him away but her arms were too short.

“Senior uncle Qi, what are you even talking about!

I’ll admire sister Lu a lot!

Hmmph!

The fifth uncle is so arrogant and proud!

I could not stand it!

Finally, there’s someone who defeated him.”

“什么陆姐姐,按辈分你得叫陆师叔!”齐笙脑袋都要炸了,”别胡来,我们有正事,小心寇师兄看见把你扔回灵均岛去!”

“What sister Lu, she’s your elder!

You should call her senior aunt Lu!” Qi Sheng felt that his head is going to burst.

“Be careful, or Senior Brother Kou would throw you back to the spirit Jun Island!”

受到威胁,寇菁菁终于安静了,但仍然眨着眼睛,委屈地看着他.

Hearing this, Kou Jingjing shut up immediately.

But she stared at him with puppy eyes.

齐笙被她看得没办法:”陆姑娘远道而来,你别让她看笑话.”

Qi Sheng can’t hold it and sigh.

“Miss Lu came from a faraway place.

Do not make a joke our of yourself!”

这句话总算让寇菁菁正常了,她理了理衣衫,屈膝向两人行了一礼:”陆师叔,对不起啦!”

Kou Jingjing finally toned down after hearing this.

She tidied her clothes and stood in front of Yuan Rong and Lu Mingshu with a serious face.

“I’m sorry, senior aunt Lu!” She bowed.

陆明舒哪会和她计较:”无妨.”

“It’s alright.” Lu Mingshu smiled.

寇菁菁看看元榕,又对齐笙道:”陆师叔就算了,这位小姐姐说不定没我大,我可不想叫师叔.”

Kou Jingjing than pointed at Yuan Rong, grinning from ear to ear at Qi Sheng.

“I don’t mind senior aunt Lu, but not this pretty sister over here!

She might not even be my age!”

齐笙又斥:”没规矩!”

“Rules!” Qi Sheng chided.

“齐师叔你也不见得有规矩!”

“Not like senior uncle followed the rules!”

“…”

齐笙只好道:”反正明面上辈分是这样,你们私底下怎么叫不管.”又说,”菁菁,我要带陆姑娘去见寇师兄,你是主人家,好好招待元姑娘.”

Qi Sheng shook his head and sighed.

“Whatever, according to rules, this is it.

I don’t care how you are going to address her when I’m not around.” He paused before adding.

“Jingjing, I’m going to bring miss Lu to senior brother Kou, you are the host so treat Miss Yuan well.”

“知道啦.”

“Okay.”

把元榕留给这位寇姑娘,还真叫陆明舒担心.不过,这里是寇威的地方,应该闹不出大事.

Lu Mingshu felt uneasy leaving Yuan Rong with miss Kou.

But it’s her place after all, so it’s hard that they will get into trouble.

齐笙带着她往里走,口中道歉:”真对不起,菁菁就是性子胡闹了些,你别见怪.”

As they walk away, Qi Sheng smiled at her apologetic.

“I’m very sorry.

Please do not mind Jingjing.

She has always been like this.”

陆明舒笑笑:”寇姑娘本性纯真,怎会见怪?”

“Of course not.” Lu Mingshu smiled.

“She’s such an innocent girl.

Why would I.”

心中暗想,能教养出寇菁菁这种姑娘,看来寇家并不是那么惟利是图.她此行的任务,成功的可能性很高.

~If Miss Kou could behave in this manner, then the Kou family isn’t that strict after all.

There’s a high chance that I’ll succeed.~

“就在那里,寇师兄在干什么呢?咦…”齐笙说到一半,卡住了.

“There.

What is senior brother Kou doing?

Eh….” Qi Sheng stopped in his tracks.

前方不远处,有一座凉亭.凉亭里一男一女,正在激烈争辩,男的正是寇威,女的却不知道是谁…

In a Pavillion not far away, a guy and a girl is standing right inside, in a heated argument.

The guy is Kou Wei but is unknown who the girl is…
