After Bai He left, Lou Bugui took his eyes away from the poisonous weeds and said, "Third senior brother is mighty."

Xi Guxing: "..."

Xi Guxing glared at him: "Don't remember a word of what I just said. You have forgotten everything."

Lou Bugui: "Why?"

Xi Guxing became angry: "I forgot about it! If I know you tell others, be careful in your medicine garden!"

Lou Bugui was shocked and hurriedly stumbled and said: "Okay, okay! I will forget about it right away! Senior brother did not commit the following crimes, did not try to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, and did not say, 'I am the headmaster of Liren Peak because I am arrogant'..."

Xi Guxing: "..."

Xi Guxing rubbed the center of his eyebrows in pain, feeling that no one among the sect leaders in the entire Three Realms felt more sad than him.

He got up and was about to leave, out of sight but out of mind.

Lou Bugui was trying his best to forget Xi Guxing's rebellious words, so he stopped him in his busy schedule: "Brother, what should I do on November 11? Do you want to bring him back?"

Xi Guxing tapped the hilt of the sword hanging on his waist with his fingers, and said impatiently: "Although Li Suo is useless, at least he is at the golden elixir stage, and Shen Shiyi has the master's protective barrier on his body. It's just the next step." The mountain will be fine."

He thought for a while, then lowered his voice as if he was disturbed: "You and I both know that the artifact mentioned by the demon master and master is not sure whether it exists or not. Shen Shiyi was implicated for no reason, and I still don't know whether it is." Who are you taking the blame for? After being trapped in Liren Peak for these years, he can only use the distraction puppet every time he goes out. Who among the monks in the world is as aggrieved as him? Today, since he accidentally knocked down the mountain, Then let him go, I will take care of everything."

Lou Bugui tilted his head: "But he can't use his spiritual power now. If he encounters danger..."

Xi Guxing: "If you can't die, I will be fully responsible for anything that happens."

Lou Bugui called him: "Senior brother, what if something unexpected happens, senior brother?"

Xi Guxing was so annoyed by Lou Bugui that for the sake of others' stupidity, he just had the last bit of patience: "A few days ago, Sanshui and Zhuxie tracked down a water ghost that escaped from the Dongting. We can make an appointment today to get it done." Go to Fuxian City, Jingzhou."

"Sanshui?" Lou Bugui thought hard, "Ah, Shiyi's great disciple, is he back?"

"Well, he has been in charge of killing evil for many years. He has a calm temperament. With the discipleship agreement, he can easily find his master." Xi Guxing said, "According to his current cultivation level, protecting Shen Shiyi will not be a problem."

Only then did Lou Bugui feel relieved.

Shen Gurong didn't know that his senior brother almost declared war on the demon clan because of him. At this time, he was sitting on Mu Ban's head, looking at the lively crowd with curiosity on his face.

Fuxian City in Jingzhou is bustling and bustling. A river stretches from the moat to the entire city beside the wide official road. There are bridges painted with smoked willows on both sides, and flowers bloom among the green tiles and red walls.

During the Flower Festival, people all over the city go out to enjoy the red flowers and pray for blessings to welcome the flower god.

Whenever he returns to Lucheng for the Flower Festival, Shen Gurong always goes out for an outing with his brother.

Because of Shen Gurong's bad habit of painting pictures of ladies, he was always closely watched by his brother who stuck to the rules. When he arrived at the place, he would be taken to a group of men by his brother. From what the literati said, he was terribly annoyed.

If you think about it carefully, this is the first time that Shen Gurong has been so free during the Flower Festival.

Originally, he was full of despair because he could not see Xi Guxing and could not transform back into his human form, but as soon as he entered Fuxian City, Shen Gurong immediately forgot about Xi Guxing.

——Now he only wants to enjoy the beautiful scenery and paint a picture.

Unfortunately, his little paws couldn't even hold the pen, so he could only scratch at Mu Ban's head anxiously.

Mu Ban felt his scalp numb, frowning and holding him down: "Are you hungry?"

Shen Gurong stood in his palm, still scratching with his paws, and chirped a few times, which Mu Ban couldn't understand at all.

Yu Xinghe looked on, his eyes so sore that he almost shed tears. He whispered in a low voice: "I also want to raise such a spiritual beast."

Lisuo had just bought two candy figures and said with a smile: "Do you want such candy figures?"

Yu Xinghe took a look and saw that the candy man looked like a chubby little phoenix, and he immediately took it over happily: "Thank you, brother, Xinghe likes it very much!"

Li Suo handed another Phoenix Candy to Mu Ban, who lowered his head and thanked him softly, then held the wooden stick and handed it to Shen Gurong.

Shen Gurong smelled the sweet scent, jumped over and pecked the candy man twice, then pecked a hole out of the little Phoenix candy man.

Shen Gurong smacked the taste, but couldn't taste the sugar, so he spat out the sugar residue twice.

"Chirp."

"It tastes bad."

Li Suo took the two dumplings to the inn and asked for two rooms. Mu Ban was licking the candy that Shen Gurong disliked and refused to eat. Seeing this, he pulled Li Suo's sleeve and whispered: "Brother, we are not going back tonight. ?"

Li Ropeway: "Someone will put out lanterns during the Flower Festival today. Let's go back after watching the lanterns."

Yu Xinghe had already finished chewing the candy, and there were sugar residue on his lips. He said carelessly: "Okay! Put on the lanterns, put on the lanterns!"

It took the three of them half a day from going down the mountain to settling in the inn. After lunch, Lisuo took the two of them boating on the Xueye River in Fuxian City.

On a snowy night, the river was filled with bright red petals. The bow of the boat broke through layers of water waves and slowly crossed the stone bridge in the city.

Shen Gurong jumped off Mu Ban's head and stood on the edge of the boat, looking at the red flowers and green willows on the shore, and kept crying there.

Li Suo was admiring the spring scenery when he heard the voice and looked back: "What's wrong with him?"

Mu Ban checked it carefully and said, "Are you happy...?"

Shen Gurong is indeed happy. If he were in human form now, he would probably be even happier.

When his father was born, he gave him the name "Gu Rong". His original intention was to make him a tolerant person. However, he didn't expect that Shen Gurong had loved beauty since he was a child, and he forcibly turned this "Gu Rong" into a "Gu Rong". Take care of your appearance."

Shen Gurong always carried a round mirror with him, and from time to time he would take a look at himself in the mirror. He felt that everyone in the world was ugly except him.

Narcissism to the extreme.

Such a temperament led him to draw the handsome gentleman who taught him calligraphy in his first painting. In the end, his father twisted his ears and went to apologize to the gentleman.

From then on, he began to draw pictures of beautiful women. Even though he painted pictures purely to appreciate the beauty and had no obscene intention, he would always be punished every time he was caught.

The more he was punished, the more rebellious he became, which indirectly led to his rapid improvement in painting skills in just a few years.

Shen Gurong was jumping and looking towards the shore, sketching ink paintings of beauties in his mind, paddling the edge of the boat with his paws, looking very excited.

Shen Gurong took advantage of the fact that no one knew that he was Shen Fengxue, so he let himself go a long time ago. Before, he would be embarrassed for a long time even if he even tweeted, but now he has no baggage, he just tweets as he says, and behaves as he pleases.

Boats were sailing in the river, and since it was the Flower Festival, there were many painted boats floating by on the river, making it very lively.

A large piece of the tapestry on the water surface was broken open, revealing the clear water surface.

Halfway through, Shen Gurong accidentally lowered his head and glanced into the water. Suddenly he was stunned, tilted his head and "chirped".

Why does this reflection on the water look strange?

Shen Gurong tried to walk to the side, but the reflection on the water was slow for a moment, and then he moved slowly after hesitating.

Shen Gurong: "???"

Shen Gurong stared at the water in disbelief, suddenly wondering if he was blind.

The next moment, the reflection on the water surface was slightly distorted, and a red shadow rippled.

Then a man with a strange face appeared on the water, floating in the water with teeth and claws like seaweed, staring at him with sinister eyes.

The man's eyes turned white and he opened his lips slightly: "Who are you?"

Shen Gurong: "..."

Ahhh!

Shen Gurong made a shrill "chirp" sound, and all the down on his body exploded. He desperately held Mu Ban's sleeve hanging aside: "Chirp!"

"Look in the water!"

Mu Ban looked at him doubtfully, probably guessing what he meant, and lowered his head to glance at the water.

Apart from the petals, there are only shadowy reflections on the water surface.

There's nothing strange about it.

Shen Gurong opened his eyes wide and looked at the man on the water who was still staring at him sinisterly in horror.

The man said coldly: "Why does the body of a phoenix have a human soul? Do you know how to transfer souls?"

Shen Gurong screamed again, flapped his wings and jumped into Mu Ban's arms.

Mu Ban was stunned.

Shen Gurong was trembling with fear and kept shouting: "Chirp! Chirp!"

"Ghost! There is a ghost!"

His cry was so shrill that even Yu Xinghe, who stretched out his hand to play with the water, tilted his head curiously.

Shen Gurong screamed while getting into the lapel of Mu Ban's clothes, and finally ran directly inside the clothes to find a sense of security, her little body still trembling.

Mu Ban thought he was afraid of water, so he patted him gently through his clothes. Seeing this, Li Suo hurriedly asked the boatman to dock.

When Mu Ban got off the ship, Shen Gurong still didn't come back to his senses. He was chirping wilfully and was really frightened.

Seeing that Shen Gurong was so frightened, Mu Ban had no energy left, so Li Suo sent him back to the inn and took Yu Xinghe to continue playing.

In the room, Mu Ban placed Shen Gurong on the bed and poured a glass of water to feed him.

Shen Gurong pecked a few languidly, then got into the brocade quilt in shock and pretended to be dead.

Fortunately, he is now in the form of a phoenix. If he had the same reaction when he saw a ghost when he was transformed into a human body, Shen Fengxue would definitely be embarrassed by him.

Shen Gurong had been lying down for a long time when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

Mu Ban, who was reading on the side, went to open the door, and Yu Xinghe jumped in, looking very happy.
