Chapter 9 Blood Omen(1/2)
Qingyun Mountain, Xiaozhu Peak
The mountain peak blew through the green bamboo forest, bringing up waves of bamboo waves that echoed in the empty valley and secluded forest.
Wenmin looked up at the sky and saw that the sky was cloudless and blue. It seemed to have a transparent feeling. She took a deep breath and felt better, but her pace did not slow down.
After passing the bamboo forest path, she soon saw the small bamboo house where her master, Master Shuiyue, meditated.
She walked to the door, knocked lightly on the door, and said: "Master, I'm back."
Master Shuiyue's voice came out and said: "Is this Min'er? Come in."
Wenmin opened the door and walked in. The bamboo house was not big. After entering the door, she saw Master Shuiyue sitting cross-legged on the couch. She closed her eyes to meditate. She walked to the side and said, "Master."
Master Shuiyue slowly opened his eyes, glanced at her, and saw that she was alone, and said, "Why, no one was found?"
Wen Min nodded and said: "Yes, I have been to Junior Sister Lu's residence twice today, but she is not here. I have smelled it to other sisters, but no one has seen her. Could it be that she went down the mountain for something?"
Master Shuiyue said expressionlessly: "Xue Qi has always known the importance. If she goes down the mountain, she will definitely let me know. If you can't find her, it's probably..." Her voice paused, as if she thought of something, and then turned around.
Team Wenmin said: "Since we can't find her, forget it. There's nothing important anyway. You can go down and do your homework."
Wenmin nodded, responded, then saluted Master Shuiyue, and then walked out. Before leaving, he gently closed the door of the bamboo house.
After Wen Min's footsteps outside the house gradually faded away, a thoughtful expression slowly appeared on Master Shuiyue's usually calm face. After a long time, she sighed softly.
The light shone in from the window of the bamboo house, illuminating this exquisite and simple bamboo house. Master Shuiyue silently got off the bamboo couch, walked to the door, opened the door and walked out, leaving a silence behind.
In this small space
Watching the Moon Platform is a very secluded place on Xiaozhu Peak. Whenever the night is clear and the moon is high in the sky, the scenery here is very moving. It is said that on a full moon night, the moonlight is as bright as anyone. After being refracted by the white stone of the Watching Moon Platform, it can reflect the light of Xiaozhu.
The entire mountain range is truly a wonder on earth and one of the famous scenery on Qingyun Mountain.
In the past ten years, Lu Xueqi has often danced her sword against the moon in the dead of night. Master Shuiyue is the mentor who raised Lu Xueqi since she was a child. She is like a teacher and a mother. No one understands Lu Xueqi's thoughts better than her.
When she heard that Wen Min was not seeing Lu Xueqi in the morning, she thought for a moment and guessed that Lu Xueqi had probably come to this secluded place.
Along the way, the bamboo forest is lush, and at the same time it is getting farther and farther away from the lively palaces and pavilions in the front mountain. Although Master Shuiyue's own residence is also in a secluded place, walking on this path, you can hear the endless waves of bamboo on both sides of the road.
, I still can’t help but feel empty in my heart.
I wonder if Xue Qi also likes this place because of this feeling?
Master Shuiyue thought this quietly in her heart, and walked towards the King's Platform. Sure enough, she just stepped onto the Moon-viewing Platform, and saw the familiar figure in white standing quietly on the boulder on the edge of the lonely cliff, endless
The mountain wind whistled in the abyss, and Lu Xueqi's white clothes also flew with the wind.
Tianya is still in her hand, quietly exuding a light blue glow.
Master Shuiyue looked at her back and kept silent for a long time. There seemed to be some complicated emotions in his eyes, and his eyes were flashing. After a while, she coughed lightly.
Lu Xueqi immediately noticed something strange behind her, and was slightly surprised. It was daytime at this time, and no sisters from Xiaozhufeng had ever come to this remote place. Why did someone come here today, and the visitor came close to behind her, but she didn't know anything about it.
Didn't find it either
She turned around quickly, and what came into view was the figure of her mentor, Master Shuiyue. Lu Xueqi was startled, and quickly floated down from the boulder, came to Master Shuiyue, lowered her head and saluted, "Master, what are you doing?"
coming?"
There was some pity in Master Shuiyue's eyes, and he pulled Lu Xueqi's clothes with his hand, and said softly: "The strong wind blowing here is quite cold and severe. Although you have advanced in Taoism, it is not advisable to blow too much. After all, it is
It’s no good”
Lu Xueqi lowered her head and said: "Disciple understands, thank you Master for your concern."
Master Shuiyue glanced at her, sighed softly, and said, "Do you feel resentful of being a master?"
Lu Xueqi was taken aback and said, "Master, why do you say that?"
Master Shuiyue said calmly: "I told you this secret and asked you to go down the mountain. Who knew that God's will played tricks on people, and after many twists and turns, you had to take action to kill Uncle Dazhu Fengtian who was restrained by the Zhuxian Ancient Sword.
And he did it in front of that person."
Lu Xueqi's expression darkened, but she slowly shook her head and said: "Master, don't say anything. I have already thought clearly in my heart that this matter is God's will. Master, you yourself couldn't have imagined it. What's more, at the last moment of the day, although Tian
Uncle Master Tian cannot speak, but I clearly feel his thoughts in my heart. Master Tian also wanted me to take action with that sword."
Her voice paused, and her expression suddenly showed a look of desolation, as if she was mocking herself or smiling bitterly, and she said quietly: "As for the relationship with that person... I have no hope at all. The rules of the sect and the moral principles are as high as mountains. I
I understand that Mr. Tian from Da Zhufeng is the mentor who raised him from childhood. He has always regarded him as a father, but now he is dead in my heart. If I were him, it would be unbearable.
Having said this, she silently raised her head, looked at Master Shuiyue, smiled sadly, and said: "Master, you don't have to worry about me, disciple. I have really looked away."
Master Shuiyue felt a pain in her heart. With her experience and perspective, what Lu Xueqi was thinking at this moment, how could she not see that what happened was so unexpected and there was no room for change. In the past, although she was firmly opposed to this disciple's feelings
, but at this moment, I still can’t bear it
It's just that if you don't bear it anymore, it won't help in the end. Master Shuiyue sighed softly, shook his head, and said softly: "Xue Qi, don't be too sad, don't hurt your body."
Lu Xueqi forced a smile and whispered: "Master, come to this remote place to find me, but is there anything important?"
Master Shuiyue nodded and said: "Yes, there is indeed something here. Although it is not big, it seems very strange. And after thinking about it, you are the only one who is more suitable."
Lu Xueqi asked: "What's the matter?"
Master Shuiyue glanced at her and said: "Actually, it's the secret. That day you said that after the accident happened, did you personally send the bodies of Gui Li and Tian Buyi to Dazhu Peak?"
When Lu Xueqi heard the word "Gui Li", her expression changed slightly, but then she nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, that day... that man was seriously injured. Although his life was not in danger, he had to take Uncle Tian alone.
It was too strenuous to bring the body back to the mountain, and the matter should not be delayed for a long time, so the disciples sent them off, but I also sent them to Dazhu Peak. Once they landed, I left."
Master Shuiyue nodded and said: "Yes, the weirdness is here."
Lu Xueqi was slightly surprised and said: "What's wrong, Master?"
Master Shuiyue said calmly: "As you said, Tian Buyi's body had returned to Dazhu Peak two days ago, but until today, there is no news of condolences from Dazhu Peak."
Lu Xueqi was startled and couldn't help but frowned.
Master Shuiyue walked aside with his hands behind his hands and looked out from a distance. He could only see the clouds and mist in the distance, and Dazhu Peak was looming in that direction.
She looked at it for a long time and then said: "Tian Buyi is the leader of the Dazhu Peak sect, and his status is very important. As soon as the news comes out, even the master will have to go and pay homage. But the Dazhu Peak is kept secret. Isn't it a strange thing?
"
She paused, turned to look at Lu Xueqi, and said: "In addition, I also quietly sent someone to find an excuse to go to Longshou Peak in the morning, and found that Tian Linger was still on Longshou Peak, asking her father
I don’t know anything about the news of his death.”
Lu Xueqi was silent for a long time, then said: "Disciple understands"
Master Shuiyue nodded and said: "You are smart as ice and snow. I don't need to say anything more. In fact, I am not doubting anything. Suru is my junior sister. The two of us are just like sisters. I am not for others. I am actually
I was worried that she would be deeply in love with her husband and she would do something stupid out of mind. However, there is no mourning on Dazhu Peak. As the leader of Dazhu Peak, it is not convenient for me to go there and visit. In addition, there are many hidden twists and turns in this matter, so it is really not convenient for others.
, I have no choice but to let you go there again.”
Lu Xueqi nodded and said: "Disciple knows that in this case, if there is nothing else to lose, I will get over it now."
Master Shuiyue nodded slightly and said: "That's fine, just be careful along the way. If anything happens, come back early and let me know."
Lu Xueqi responded, bowed to Master Shuiyue, turned around, and the divine light of the Tianya Divine Sword lit up at her hand. She walked with the sword, only to hear a sharp roar that broke through the air, and the person turned into a blue light.
Gone into the sky
Master Shuiyue looked at Lu Xueqi's slightly hurried figure, which was not as calm as before, and knew that the stubborn and infatuated disciple was strong on the surface and let go, but in his heart there were thousands of things that he couldn't let go of.
She was silent for a long time, and at the most she just sighed lowly, shook her head, turned around, and walked straight down to the moon-watching platform.
Thousands of miles away, Huqi Mountain
In the ice stone chamber, the frost and cold air still curled up, and the serene woman in green was lying quietly on the ice stone platform as usual.
Lan Ji, whose face was covered with gauze, stood alone in the ice stone chamber, staring at Baguio for a long time, and sighed softly, with a lot of helplessness.
In You Ji's heart, there has indeed been too much helplessness recently, which puzzles her, makes her sad, and gradually makes her confused.
First, the Ghost King seemed to have completely changed. The resolute Ghost King in the past was still brave and wise, but his murderous intentions became more and more serious in his daily actions. In just a few days, he disobeyed him because of a few small things.
Meaning, the Ghost King has killed several people in a row, including even a high-status senior of the Ghost King Sect.
As for these trivial matters, two years ago, the Ghost King would probably have laughed them off. You Ji clearly felt that people in the Ghost King Sect were already panicked and feared. No one knew that one day she would suddenly be unlucky for whatever reason.
A trivial matter can lead to an inexplicable death.
What made You Ji sad was that she accidentally bumped into the Ghost King and Ghost Li making a move that day. Although it only happened a few times, You Ji was not an ordinary member of the cult, she was the fourth member of the Ghost King Sect.
Suzaku, one of the Great Holy Envoys, opened clearly. I don’t know when there was a deep rift between the two men. She could tell that the Ghost King’s few shots were
, may not have murderous intentions
Her eyes dimmed and she looked at Baguio. Baguio was still sleeping quietly. It was because of this respectable and beautiful woman that the two men came together, but for what reason? After these ten years,
The relationship between them has actually reached this point?
Youji really couldn't imagine what would happen if one day those two men killed each other? But now it seems that this kind of thing may not happen.
"Man, hum, man"
You Ji said something hatefully in her heart, feeling upset. When she turned her eyes to Baguio, she turned into Teng Xin, the child she had always regarded as her daughter. Every time she looked at Baguio, she
I can't help but feel sad for it
While she was thinking silently here alone, the thick stone door of the Ice Stone Chamber suddenly made a low mahogany sound, and someone opened it from the outside.
