Outside Feixuan City.

Yu Ziqing and Li Zongsheng went round and round and returned to this city. This was the main route from Tiandu City to the north. Businessmen coming and going and scholars who had failed were all resting here.

"The roast duck in Luoyun Inn is really delicious. It's much better than the rice cooked by the chef Xiao Yezi. Also, the dumplings have thin skin and lots of stuffing. If you bite into it, tsk tsk tsk, tsk tsk tsk, the soup will overflow.

It's not like Elder Yun is so picky and only has to beat two eggs for stuffing." Li Zongsheng kept talking about the huge difference between the chefs on Shushan Mountain and the chefs in Tiandu City along the way.

Yesterday's night in Tiandu City was like a magical day for him. He had already thought about how to go up the mountain and show off to his junior brothers. When he thought of the envious eyes of those junior brothers, Li Zongsheng couldn't help himself with excitement.

It's just that Yu Ziqing seemed to be used to eating these delicacies and was not moved at all. When Li Zongsheng made a fuss and shouted that this was too delicious, he just chewed quietly, with a sad look on his face, as if he would cry in the next second.

.

Li Zongsheng thought he was so delicious that he was moved to tears.

"It's just a pity that I haven't gone to Yanliu Pavilion yet. I heard the young man at Luoyun Inn said that it is the largest brothel in Tiandu City." Even after eating Tiandu City's delicacies, Li Zongsheng was still not satisfied and was heartbroken.

Shake his head and sigh.

"You are a Taoist after all. Do you think you look like a Taoist?" Yu Ziqing got tired of hearing this and rolled his eyes at him angrily.

"Hey, that's what you said." Li Zongsheng suddenly quickened his pace and walked in front of Yu Ziqing, turned around and walked backwards while looking at him.

"It's exactly the same as my Master Canggu. He always likes to say this to me. As long as I go to the kitchen to steal something and get caught, he will catch me with a stinky face." Li Zongsheng said vividly.

Depicting his scene on the mountain.

"Just like you are now, look, do you still have the appearance of a cultivator? You are the senior brother and you have to be a role model. Don't think that just because Taoist Qingxu is spoiling you, you can do whatever you want!

"Li Zongsheng's voice suddenly became louder, and he tried his best to imitate the appearance of Elder Canggu.

"Why do I do whatever I want? Shouldn't Taoists eat? Can't I find something to eat when I'm hungry? One day, I must shave off Master Canggu's full beard!" Li Zongsheng said angrily.

Put your hands in.

Yu Ziqing suddenly laughed because he remembered that he had gone into the kitchen to steal food when he was very young, but he was different from Li Zongsheng.

There was no food in the Tianqing Palace because Mu Yunfei did not need to eat. As the first disciple of the sect leader, he naturally had to act like an outsider, so he held his breath and refused to eat. But after all, he was still a child.

He would be hungry soon, so he could only look for something to eat elsewhere, and he was afraid of being seen by his junior brothers, because in his heart he felt that eating by himself would be a very embarrassing thing.

One night he sneaked into the kitchen to look for food, and found that there was only vegetables, raw meat and cornstarch, and nothing edible. One day or two days, he actually fainted from hunger in the kitchen. When he woke up the next day, there was nothing edible in the kitchen.

He was surrounded by senior brothers and sisters, making him so embarrassed that he wanted to hide in a rice vat.

Later, when Mu Yunfei learned about this, he just smiled lightly and told him that there was nothing to be ashamed of when eating. From that day on, Mu Yunfei stipulated that children should deliver meals to Tianqing Palace on time every day. He and Yu Ziqing

Eat on the jade table.

But those days were short. When Yu Ziqing grew up, he spent less time eating in Tianqing Palace. He preferred to go to the canteen below to eat with his brothers. Mu Yunfei stopped eating.

If he had known that things would turn out like this, he would have gone home for dinner every day, right?

"Hey, you laughed." Li Zongsheng suddenly interrupted Yu Ziqing's memories.

"I didn't realize that you look pretty when you smile! You usually have a stiff face and you can't tell, so I reluctantly give you the title of the second most beautiful man in the world. If you have too much face, you will get older.

Just like that ancient thing."

Yu Zi smiled lightly, and rarely joked with Li Zongsheng.

"Who is the most handsome man in the world?"

"Of course it's me!" Li Zongsheng patted his chest and spoke righteously.

"Narcissism."

"By the way, after meeting your old friend, have you decided where to go?" The two of them were silent like this.

After walking silently for a mile, Li Zongsheng broke the silence again.

"Go to the mountain." Yu Ziqing said softly.

"On the mountain? Shushan or what kind of mountain?" Li Zongsheng stalked.

"No, an unknown mountain. There is no one there, nothing, just me." Yu Ziqing thought for a while, but he still did not tell Li Zongsheng the name of the mountain.

It's not because you don't trust him, but because you know that it will only bring him endless trouble.

"Only by yourself? That would be boring to death. Why don't you tell me where you live so I can go to the mountains to play with you? Don't forget, you still owe me a competition?"

"Aren't I just like this sword? The reason why it is called Dugu Sword is because it has to endure this endless loneliness." Yu Ziqing chuckled, stiff and sad.

"Hey, the broken sword is all because of this broken sword. It should be broken!" Li Zongsheng glared at the sword on Yu Ziqing's back angrily.

"So, you can't go to the Immortal Ascension Competition? The first place in this year's competition belongs to you!" Li Zongsheng said regretfully.

"As a deviant, what qualifications do I have to participate in this immortality competition. I just hope to find a resting place and live the rest of my life peacefully." Yu Ziqing shook his head, he didn't care about the pomp and fame in the world.

"That's fine, if you don't go, the first place in this Immortal Ascension Conference will be mine. Then I will make a big splash and show them that I, Li Zongsheng, am also a genius!" Li Zongsheng was extremely proud.

"Then you promise me that you must get the first place, because it belongs to me." Yu Ziqing suddenly looked at Li Zongsheng. Li Zongsheng wanted to make a joke with his hands, but he found that Yu Ziqing had never been serious.

"Okay, I promise you." Li Zongsheng actually said seriously, and he added, "Just think of it as a thank you for giving me this sword!"

Just as he was speaking, the Bing Ning Sword in Li Zongsheng's hand suddenly flashed a blue light, seeming to echo Li Zongsheng's answer.

Yu Ziqing didn't know why he wanted Li Zongsheng to get the first place in the Immortal Promotion for him. Maybe it was just a casual joke, but he was not good at joking. So Li Zongsheng took it seriously and was more serious than ever before.

"Well, definitely." Yu Ziqing lowered his head, looked at the road ahead and fell silent.

It was just after noon, and the light in the bamboo forest was still clear. The separation might be coming next. Yu Ziqing didn't want Li Zongsheng to follow him anymore. He knew that he was already dying, and Li Zongsheng would definitely be criticized by thousands of people if he followed him. But he

He still has a great future and is as innocent as he was when he first came down from the mountain.

"Who? Dare to eavesdrop on our conversation?" Yu Ziqing was suddenly jumped by Li Zongsheng's loud shout. He raised his head and saw Li Zongsheng looking angrily at the dense trees in the distance.

Has someone been following them? Is my body too weak to detect the stalker?

"I can smell your stench from so far away. It makes me want to vomit." Li Zongsheng changed his face. Originally he had always been lazy, but now he looked extremely nervous. He could tell who was coming.

It must be unusual.

"My nose has become so good that I can smell what is being cooked from a long distance on the mountain, so the elders in the dining room like to call me Dog Nose." Li Zongsheng said in a low voice.

"But I can't tell how strong they are. They must be above us, so be careful."

They? In other words, there is more than one person? And the strength is still higher than them. Yu Ziqing was shocked. He looked in the direction where Li Zongsheng was looking, which happened to be a gloomy place in the forest.

"Ha, your nose is really smart." A bloated man walked out of the woods. It was Fei Yuming who was testing Yu Ziqing in Xiushui Tower.

"Hey, I couldn't kill you in the inn, and now I'm running out to die?" Li Zongsheng sneered.

"No, no, my original intention was not for you two. It was just to say hello to you two. Now that the greetings are over, I have a small gift to offer." Fei Qiming bowed slightly and smiled.

"Hey, you are really a weasel giving New Year greetings to a chicken. You have no good intentions. You are like a toad and yawning so loudly. I want to see what treasures you can come up with." Li Zongsheng rolled his eyes.

"The two of you should keep an eye on it." Fei Yuming stretched out his hand into his arms.

middle.

Yu Ziqing and Li Zongsheng held the swords at their waists at the same time. It would be a lie to say that Li Zongsheng was not nervous. They were afraid that Fei Yuming would suddenly make a move. They knew that the strength of the person in front of them was much higher than them.

But Fei Yuming did not take out any strange weapon, but took out a green sachet from his arms.

Yu Ziqing and Li Zongsheng were stunned at the same time, wondering whether they should pull out the swords in their hands.

"You are a grown man, and you are still carrying a girl's sachet, are you ashamed?" Li Zongsheng took advantage of the situation and taunted. Fei Yuming was not angry, and his face was still gentle and drizzle.

"Of course this sachet does not belong to me, but to a woman, and Mr. Yu must also know this woman!"

Yu Ziqing squinted his eyes and looked at the green sachet carefully. He did not remember meeting any woman, and he had never seen this sachet.

"Oh, I didn't expect that you have a confidante! When are you going to introduce her to your buddies?" Li Zongsheng poked his waist. He was facing a formidable enemy, but he still had the heart to joke.

"No!" Yu Ziqing rolled his eyes at the laughing Li Zongsheng angrily. Sure enough, this guy can only be serious for two seconds.

"It's normal that you haven't seen her before, because! She is a female knight named Chang Qingyao, who was left in Peach Blossom Town a hundred years ago. I wonder if Mr. Yu is familiar with the name Chang Qingyao?"

Yu Ziqing didn't know Chang Qingyao, but he felt that this name was extremely familiar. Mu Yunfei didn't tell him who his mother was until his death, but at this moment, he was particularly fascinated by this name.

"Who is Chang Qingyao? I've never heard of it. What's wrong, is she great?" Li Zongsheng answered for Yu Ziqing.

"It's normal that you don't know her. Maybe you've never met her, but right now, she might be thinking about you day and night in the Forest of No Return!" Fei Yuming said softly.

Forest of No Return! These three words suddenly exploded in Yu Ziqing's mind. He knew that his mother was in the Forest of No Return, and there should be very few people left who knew about it.

But Fei Yuming was different. He met Chang Qingyao on the wedding night a hundred years ago, and the groom was Mu Yunfei. Later, he saw them outside the Forest of No Return and went to Hidden Sword Valley together. After that, Yu Zi

Qingbian was born, so he guessed it.

This Yu Ziqing must be the child of Mu Yunfei and Chang Qingyao.

"Chang Qingyao, she is my mother." Yu Ziqing finally couldn't bear it anymore, and his iceberg-like face became extremely sad, like a child reunited with his parents after a long separation.

He has never seen his mother, and he doesn't know when he will see her. Maybe they will never meet, so the sachet in front of him makes him feel more intimate.

"Oh, so you know her!" Fei Yuming was only 80% sure at first, but after seeing Yu Ziqing's expression, he became even more convinced and proudly raised the sachet in his hand high.

"Do you want it?"

Yu Ziqing looked at Fei Yuming with hatred. He gritted his teeth and seemed to have made a heavy decision.

"I will never hand over the Dugu Sword to you!"

"Oh, that's such a pity." Fei Yuming shrugged helplessly. Even so, there was no look of regret on his face.

"Then we will meet again later."

Before Yu Ziqing could speak again, his figure jumped towards the depths of the trees. It seemed that his appearance was really just to meet the two of them.

"Is that sachet important to you?" Li Zongsheng looked at Yu Ziqing.

After a long silence, he nodded solemnly.

"I have never met my mother. I only know that she lives alone in the forest of no return. She is as lonely as me and as persistent as me." Yu Ziqing knew that he should not mention his mother, but he couldn't help it.

"Then let's go grab it!" Li Zongsheng didn't ask further.

"But the two of us..." Yu Ziqing choked. Just as Fei Yuming guessed, he really wanted to get the sachet, but he was afraid, afraid of implicating Li Zongsheng. If it was just him, even if he knew there was an ambush ahead, he would still

I will move forward with the determination to die.

"What are you afraid of? He's just a peak Xuanxian. Don't forget, both of us are geniuses. Are you afraid that we can't beat him?" Li Zongsheng winked at him.
