Feeling the sweetness on his taste buds, Yue Tonghui nodded.
Nie Xiaolou took out a candied fruit from the oil paper bag and put it into his mouth. Then he narrowed his eyes like a cat's eyes and curved the corners of his mouth upward, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
Yue Tonghui's heart surged with tenderness that he hadn't seen for a long time. He raised his hand to touch Nie Xiaolou's hair, but it froze in mid-air. The time he spent with his wife when he was a boy appeared in front of his eyes.
, a long-lost kind of heartache came to my heart. The hand that was frozen in mid-air slowly closed up.
Nie Xiaolou didn't seem to notice Yue Tonghui's actions. He put away the oil-paper bag, took out another oil-paper bag, opened the oil-paper bag, and found pieces of small pastries inside. She took out a small pastry and handed it to Yue Tonghui:
"Brother Yue, try this again."
"Okay!" Yue Tonghui took the piece of pastry, and Nie Xiaolou also took out a piece of pastry from the oil paper bag, held it in both hands, squinted his eyes, and ate it in small bites.
"Is it delicious?"
"Yeah!" Yue Tonghui nodded.
"This road is like this snack. If you get tired of one kind, you can change it. The same is true with the road. If one road is broken, you can change it. Well, this is my little sister's idea, I don't know if it is right or not.
"
Yue Tonghui was thoughtful while chewing the cake.
Northland.
Qingyun Zong Ancient Peak.
Gu Shuo sat drinking tea under a big tree that looked like a canopy. Opposite him sat Bei Xueling, holding a piece of pastry in both hands and eating it in small bites. His bright eyes narrowed and curved into a crescent moon. Gu Shuo looked at
Looking funny, he said:
"You are still so greedy, so you are not afraid of gaining weight?"
"Don't be afraid, I won't gain weight! Senior Brother Gu, do you know? The news I just came back from is that our Qingyun Sect has conquered all the demon clan's territory in the plan. My father is mobilizing sect disciples to garrison. Those monks who are going to fight
Will be back soon."
"Great!" Gu Shuo's face was also happy. He glanced at Bei Xueling, who had cake crumbs on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but smile: "You have to practice hard and strive to break through the Nascent Soul as soon as possible. Don't be chased by my two disciples.
superior."
"That's not possible!" Bei Xueling waved her hand and said in a sonorous tone: "Who am I? I am Bei Xueling, the number one genius of the Qingyun Sect. Only I can surpass others, and no one can surpass me. Just wait, look at me
Beyond you, hum!"
"Okay, I'll wait. When I come back next time, I hope you can surpass me."
Bei Xueling, who was eating the pastries beautifully, looked stiff, then chewed a few times quickly, swallowed the pastries in her mouth, and said hurriedly:
"Senior Brother Gu, are you leaving?"
"Well! My affairs in the sect are over. The development of the sect is now on the right track. It has opened up new territories and has new resources. As long as this development continues, the sect will definitely be brilliant. Xiaoyao and Qingsi
They have also laid a solid foundation, and they will have to rely on themselves in the future. Of course, I will ask Brother Wushuang and Brother Mu to guide them. If you have time, give them more guidance."
"What...are you in a hurry? Can't you stay a little longer?"
"It's been half a year!" Gu Shuo gently placed the tea cup on the stone table, and the breeze blew his sleeves: "I have my own way to go."
"I...I can't bear to leave you."
Gu Shuo raised his head and rubbed Bei Xueling's hair: "Practice hard."
Bei Xueling shook her head, got rid of Gu Shuo's big hand, puffed her face and said: "Under your guidance these days, my cultivation speed has been very fast. If you leave, I will resume my original cultivation speed.
.”
"Isn't there still your father?"
"If he can't do it, he's not as good as you!"
Gu Shuo smiled, took out a jade slip and handed it to Bei Xueling: "I have made some cultivation suggestions based on the exercises you practice and your own situation. You cannot practice according to my suggestions.
.In the process of cultivation, everything is ever-changing and can be used as a reference for you."
Bei Xueling grabbed the jade slip and began to read it. Her eyes lit up and she waved her little hand and said:
"I know you want to find daddy, go ahead, go ahead."
Gu Shuo rolled his eyes, took out five more jade swords with fire swords and five jade tokens with water swords, and placed them on the stone table:
"This jade sword is sealed with offensive magical powers, and the jade tablet is sealed with defensive magical powers. You keep it for self-defense."
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Gu Shuo waved his hand, stood up and left happily. Instead of looking for Bei Wushuang, he first called two disciples, Yun Xiaoyao and Mu Qingsi, to his cave. Each took out a storage ring and handed them to the two young men respectively:
"Here are some cultivation resources that you need from outside. There are also some cultivation experiences that Master has prepared for you. Please keep them."
"Master..." The two children suddenly became nervous. They had also heard that the master would not stay in Qingyun Sect for a long time: "Are you... are you leaving?"
"Well! Master will be away for a while. You should practice well and wait until Master comes back next time. I hope you two will not disappoint me."
"Master..." In the past six months, the two children have become familiar with Gu Shuo and are not as afraid of Gu Shuo as before. When they heard that Gu Shuo was about to leave, they panicked and rushed to Gu Shuo's side, alone.
He hugged Gu Shuo with one arm and cried:
"Master, don't go, don't go!"
Gu Shuo was helpless. This was the innocence of a child. He couldn't scold him, so he could only coax him. After coaxing him for a long time, he stopped crying with sobs. Gu Shuo said:
"Xiaoyao, Qingsi."
"Master!"
"In Qingyun Sect, the only people who know that you two are my disciples now are the sect master, Elder Mu and your senior sister Bei Xueling. If other monks from other sects or the demon monks know that you two are my disciples,
, after Master leaves, I'm afraid they will target you and even assassinate you. Therefore, I will take you to see Elder Mu later. You kowtow to Elder Mu a few times. After I leave, you will appear as Elder Mu's disciples.
Sect. If you have time, you can also learn alchemy from Elder Mu.
This will not only help you hide your identity better, but also help you in the future. Being an alchemist will make you more popular when you travel on the Tianxuan Continent in the future."
"Yes, Master!"
Gu Shuo took out ten more jade swords and gave five to each of the two young men: "This is a magical attack power sealed by my master. You can keep it for self-defense."
"Thank you, Master!"
Gu Shuo took out ten more jade tablets and gave five to each of the two children: "Here is sealed the master's defensive magical power."
"Thank you, Master!"
The two youngsters put a jade token on their bodies, put the rest into their storage bags, and looked at Gu Shuo pitifully. Gu Shuo rubbed the heads of the two youngsters respectively:
"Follow me as a teacher to see Elder Mu."
Inside Mu Qing's cave.
Mu Qing looked at the two young men kneeling in front of her, then looked at Gu Shuo and said, "I understand what you mean, leave this matter to me."
"Thank you, Brother Mu." Gu Shuo said with cupped hands.
Mu Qing waved her hands and said, "Thank you for everything. These two children are the future of the sect, and this is what I should do."
Gu Shuo nodded, then looked solemnly at the two paths: "Xiaoyao, Qingsi."
"Master!"
"From now on, you must regard Elder Mu as your master in your heart, and you must listen to his words."
"Yes, Master!"
There was a sound of footsteps. Gu Shuo asked Mu Qing to send someone to invite Bei Wushuang. Bei Wushuang hurried over. As soon as he came in, he saw the two children kneeling in front of Mu Qing. As if he had some realization in his heart, he looked at Gu Shuang and said
:
"Are you leaving?"
"Well!" Gu Shuo first took out a jade slip and handed it to Bei Wushuang: "These are my cultivation experience. I hope it will be helpful to you."
Bei Wushuang took the jade slip, just read the beginning, and said gratefully: "You made this according to my situation, thank you."
Gu Shuo waved his hand, took out another jade slip and handed it to Mu Qing, saying: "Here are some tips on refining elixirs, as well as elixir recipes. By the way, the herbs I gave you last time that can be used to refine body tempering elixirs have been planted.
?"
"Yes!" Mu Qing said happily: "I planted it myself, don't worry."
"That's good, Brother Wushuang, Brother Mu, that body-building technique is really good. Have you two practiced it?"
"I've practiced it!" Bei Wushuang said excitedly: "It's really a good technique. I am now more and more confident in breaking through the Nascent Soul."
"I hope that next time I come back, Brother Wushuang will already be a Nascent Soul. It's just that I didn't bring many body-refining elixirs back, otherwise I would have left some more for you."
Bei Wushuang waved his hand: "How long do you need to come back?"
Gu Shuo estimated his current situation and felt that it would take more than ten years to achieve out-of-body perfection. He said:
"Twenty years from now."
Bei Wushuang nodded. For monks like them, twenty years was nothing. It was just like a passing time. But he didn't expect that what Gu Shuo meant was that he would be able to achieve perfection in twenty years. He thought that Gu Shuo was
He decided to come back and have a look in twenty years. When he thought that twenty years was only so short, he had no regrets and patted Gu Shuo on the shoulder and said:
"Okay, when will you leave?"
"Just leave!" Gu Shuo said with a smile: "I have already explained everything that needs to be explained. If there is nothing wrong with the two eldest brothers, I will be ready to leave now."
Then he took out ten jade swords and ten jade tokens and handed them to Bei Wushuang, and took out ten jade swords and jade tokens and handed them to Mu Qing:
"The Jade Sword is my sealed offensive magical power, and the Jade Tablet is my sealed defensive magical power. I leave it to the two eldest brothers for self-defense."
Bei Wushuang and Mu Qing put it away. Bei Wushuang looked at Gu Shuo worriedly and said:
"Gu Shuo, I guess Zhou Wenlie knows that you are alive by now. It's too dangerous for you to run around like this. It's better to return to Tianmeng quickly."
Gu Shuo shook his head and said: "It's not safe for me to return to Tianmeng. Tianmeng also has Chen Jingyu, who knows when he will leave seclusion? Am I just hiding in Tianmeng headquarters?
In that case, my cultivation will not improve, or it will improve very slowly.
As long as I leave the Tianmeng headquarters and go to other island cultivation holy places to practice, the risk will be no less than now.
Tianxuan Continent is so big. When I leave for the east this time, I will have to walk through high mountains. Even if Zhou Wenlie wants to find me, it will be difficult for him to find me.
I feel that in Tianxuan Continent, as long as I am careful and do not expose my hidden secrets, it will be the safest."
