Gu Qingling's face was full of guilt, her dark eyes glanced left and right, and she said: "Well... this... that..."
She didn't want to, but Pei Hongdu's condition at the time was really bad. No matter what, she would not just watch Pei Hongdu die in front of her. What's more, the place in Qiongqiling was extremely dangerous, even if the person she found was not Pei Hongdu,
They will also bring people back by force!
At this time, Pei Hongdu's chapped lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to defend something, but he could only spit out a few broken syllables. His voice was like a dull knife grinding stone, extremely hoarse.
Gu Qingling subconsciously took a step forward, but was stopped by Li Zheng's emotionless gaze, so she could only point anxiously: "Brother Pei, you still have half a lotus leaf on hand, just eat it."
Brother Pei!?
Li Zheng's eyelids twitched fiercely, and an indescribable feeling filled his heart. It's just that Pei Hongdu, like Gu Qingling, has a very special status in the Lushu Sect, so he can't say much.
After Pei Hongdu took half of the lotus leaf, his voice was obviously much clearer. His eyes swept over Gu Qingling, and with a bit of alienation and indifference, he said calmly: "I will return to the formation sect."
After saying that, he stood up from the ground, lowered his eyes and glanced at the pile of tilted pill bottles beside him, and pursed his pale thin lips slightly: "I will return these things to you later."
When Lu Qingling passed by him, she suddenly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, without looking at him, and just asked: "Don't you remember me?"
Pei Hongdu's eyes fell outside the door, his thin jawline tightened slightly, and he said calmly: "Remember, you are the young lady of the Gu family."
This short sentence opened an insurmountable gap between the two people.
The chill all over his body flowed along the fabric, staining Gu Qingling's fingertips inch by inch. But she stubbornly held on tightly, as if to confirm something, and continued to ask without giving up: "What else? It's more than that! I know!"<
/p>
Pei Hongdu finally turned around to face her, his childish look faded from his thin face, and his eyes shone like cold stars: "There is nothing else between you and me."
Gu Qingling bit her lip, rushed into the room, turned around and slammed the door, hammered the door panel hard with both fists, her childish voice was filled with anger and crying: "No, no, you go away, I will never want you again.
I see you!"
He clearly regrets knowing himself, that’s why he said such words!
Gu Qingling is not such a spineless person. If you don’t like me, then I don’t like you either, and I will never talk to you again!
But she was thinking this in her heart, and when Li Zheng stood up and stepped forward, placing his slender hand on top of her head, she met a pair of wet, heartbroken eyes like a deer.
"...You don't have to go to the sword formation in the afternoon, have a good rest." The scolding words were stuck in his heart, and Li Zheng swallowed them tightly. This was one of the few times where he expressed care through words.
Sure enough, Gu Qingling didn't go to the afternoon sword practice. Lin Shu and Zhang Yumo were very smart, so they naturally guessed what might have happened last night.
But the two also had a tacit understanding: no matter what happened, it would never be okay to make the junior sister unhappy! So the two quietly found Zhao Xiner after class. After all, only girls know how to make girls happy.
When Zhao Xiner learned about this, she was naturally very anxious. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and said: "That's right! Our Danzong will have a fireworks show tonight. If you sneak in quietly then, Ling'er will definitely be happy!"
Lin Shu said: "Fireworks... performance? Why does your Dan Sect set off fireworks?"
Zhao Xiner scratched her cheek with her fingers: "When making alchemy, someone often blows up the furnace, so the brothers and sisters discovered that different formulas of elixirs produce different sparks when blowing up the furnace... We also came up with many permutations and combinations.
It’s here!”
Zhang Yumo sighed: "You alchemy cultivators really know how to play."
……
Danzong, Kaimeng Cliffside.
When she saw the big fireworks blooming in the night sky, Lu Qingling's depressed mood was swept away. The colorful colors reflected in her eyes, and she opened her mouth slightly: "Wow, so beautiful!"
Seeing her finally smiling, Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief and curled up the corners of his lips: "As long as you like it, it's not in vain that we went all the way to sneak you here."
At this time, several people were sitting side by side on the old tree on the edge of Kaimeng Cliff. Their bodies were tightly blocked by the horizontal branches, and because the terrain was higher, they could see the fireworks more clearly.
Zhao Xiner and Gu Qingling were sitting closest, holding her arms closely at the moment, with their legs dangling in the air: "This is our Alchemy Sect's specialty! It's much more fun than refining alchemy, hehehe!"
Zhang Yumo picked a branch alone, lay down leisurely on it, and raised his eyebrows: "But if you are playing like this, the sect master and senior sister must not know about it, right?"
Zhao Xiner stuck out her tongue mischievously: "Of course I can't let them know. So my senior brother specially found a friend from the Formation Sect to wrap up the entire Kaimeng Cliff with the formation. You can't see the fireworks from the outside."
p>
Hearing this, Lin Shu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I heard that all the disciples of the Formation Sect are taciturn, but they are extremely accomplished in magic. If it weren't for them, I would also like to get to know one or two of them."
Hearing the word "Array Sect", Gu Qingling's originally bright eyes suddenly dimmed, and even the fireworks blooming in the sky faded a lot.
"Array sects, they are all nuisances!" she yelled angrily, and before anyone could react, a strange female voice came from above her head.
"Hey? I've worked hard to help you set up the formation, don't you have such a supercilious attitude?"
Everyone was shocked. They all looked up and saw the girl in black clothes hanging upside down on the tree trunk, with her dark and smooth ponytail hanging upside down. She smiled at them, swayed a few times like a monkey, and landed steadily beside Lu Qingling. "Gu, Senior Sister Gu? We didn't mean that!" Zhao Xiner was at a loss and quickly covered Gu Qingling's mouth.
"Huh huh huh, I just heard it from above, but now it's clear, what do you mean by hating the Formation Sect?" Gu Tan leaned over, his eyes full of teasing, staring at the little milk bag in front of him, and raised his hand
He flicked her forehead.
Lu Qingling's forehead suddenly turned red. She said "ouch" and suddenly raised her hands to cover it. Her cheeks bulged, her eyes were full of tears and she bit her mouth, feeling so wronged that she was about to cry.
"Ugh... I, I just don't like people from the Formation Sect! He is the same, and so are you, they are all bad guys!"
Lin Shu and Zhang Yumo looked at each other in confusion: Could it be that the people from the Formation Sect offended the junior sister and made her so unhappy?
Thinking of this, the two of them looked cold and solemn. Their eyes fell on Gu Tan, wishing they could condense into a knife and keep poking her back.
"Hey, you little thing." Gu Tan simply sat next to Gu Qingling, raised an eyebrow and said, "Tell me, why do you hate people from our formation sect?"
