Volume 1 Huangquan December, Chapter 65: Qingxiao Straight Up
Shi Wuqi led them forward, and the other four followed obediently.
Ye Zixu regained her energy, and her panic finally dissipated. She chattered around him and had endless things to say. Shi Wuqi didn't say much, just smiled and nodded in agreement. Ye Linxi was talking to him from behind.
Shanhai and the others walked and shouted softly:
"I almost fell down because of her..."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are so brave that you can save two people from the mountains and the sea." Aluan stared at him.
Shan Hai stared closely at the backs of a man and a woman in front of him, still saying nothing.
They walked for a long time, which made people's legs feel sore. Maybe it was because they didn't know where the destination was and the time seemed too long. A Luan asked many times how long it would take, and Shi Wuqi always replied that it was almost there.
"Then... then lend me your fan, I'm too hot."
"If you keep patiently, it's almost time."
At this time, they felt a coolness on their sides and faintly heard the sound of water. They turned their heads and looked in the direction of the cool wind. There was a small lake in the forest. There was a thin waterfall falling on the rocks. The wind brought the coolness with it.
When I came over, I was still enveloped by a clean, slightly sweet moisture.
"Have a drink at the head office!"
Shi Wuqi stopped and turned around. Before he could speak, Shan Hai interrupted him.
"After walking for so long, it's already past dinner time. Let's take a rest."
Wu Qi nodded and said nothing. Ah Luan happily ran to the lake, took off his mahogany sword, kicked off his shoes, and rushed into the pool without holding up his pants. Ye Linxi also took a kettle to collect the water from the small waterfall.
.Zi Xuben stayed by Wu Qi's side. Shan Hai pointed in the direction of Aluan and said to her in a pleading manner:
"Aluan has poor water quality. Can you please help keep an eye on her?"
Ye Zixu thought for a while, nodded slightly, and put her pants on her knees. She took a few steps into the water, turned back and waved to the two of them again, and then continued walking towards Aluan.
Walking to the water's edge, Shanhai bowed down and poured cold water on his face to wash it. He raised his head, and a few drops of water crossed his cheek. At this time, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Master Shi, how is Miss Qi's injury healing?"
"It's okay, I'm about to recover."
In an instant, Shanhai picked up the wooden sword on the shore, unsheathed it the moment he stood up, and struck at Shi Wuqi. The water splashed up, forming a sparkling water curtain, which opened an arc on the lake.
of ripples.
Shi Wuqi's hands clamped the sword tightly, and wisps of black smoke seeped out from between his palms.
"Who are you?" He glared at him, "Where is Wu Qi?"
Things happened so fast that the brother, sister and Aluan in the distance had not yet reacted. When the three pairs of eyes looked at the two of them, "Shi Wuqi" clasped the sword tightly, suddenly raised his legs, and struck Shan Hai's front waist hard.
He kicked it hard. Unable to guard against it, he suddenly let go of his hand and stumbled back a few steps, coughing from the pain. The man landed firmly on the ground and chuckled imperceptibly amid the sound of the waterfall.
"I think my disguise technique is flawless. How did you see that?"
He spoke softly, his tone of voice had changed, and his voice was different from Shi Wuqi's appearance. Moreover, at this time, his body exuded the strong demonic aura that he had previously suppressed.
"There is indeed no flaw."
Shan Hai did not answer his question.
In terms of appearance, his imitation was impeccable. He even hid the monster's aura almost perfectly. When Shan Hai became suspicious, it was because he could only sense Miss Qi's location, and in theory he should have returned directly.
Arrive at your residence. Qingluya is so big, and a few people here are like digging chaff in a heap. No matter how strong your perception is, you will not be disturbed by this full and complex spiritual power.
There are also problems with Ah Luan's fan and Miss Qi's wound that cannot heal on its own.
But in the beginning, he didn't take the initiative to ask about Liangqiu Muwan's whereabouts.
"Who are you anyway?"
The man was still smiling with Mr. Shi's face, but he slowly opened his narrowed eyes. On the green eyes, there was a thin, black crack-like pupil.
He took out a token from his body. At the same time, his head and coat had some differences in style, as if some spell had been lifted. Shanhai saw his token clearly, it was the owner of Jinsha Village.
"Kari Gongduo." Shanhai said his name.
"Lin Shanhai." He responded to his name.
His abdomen was hit hard and the labor pain was still obvious, but Shan Hai remained calm. He raised his sword with one hand and placed it between Kari Gonduo and the three people in the water.
"Let them go."
"Although I have a head-to-head confrontation with Lord Bai Skeleton, I know that I will not have the upper hand, but I believe that I am more than enough for you. However, I really want to take you to meet Lord Satsuki, but I am afraid that I will not be able to show you the face you are familiar with.
It will be more troublesome to show people. Now that this is the case, I still tell you - yes, I can naturally let them go, they have no value. But in this case, they will not be able to see the person they want to see... You can
Think clearly."
"Who believes your lies!"
Accompanied by the crisp sound of the sword being unsheathed, Mr. Ye stepped forward through the water and stood behind Shan Hai without fear.
"Courage is commendable. But I have to remind you... Although it is not difficult to deal with you again, but if I don't return to life before sunset, I don't know what will happen to the person Taoist Master Lin is looking for."
Shan Hai didn't know whether he was talking about Wu Qi or Mu Wan.
He lowered his voice, turned his face slightly, and said to Ye Linxi: "Let's go."
"What? Master Lin, this..."
"Let's go quickly," he said without fear, "take my apprentice with you."
Ye Linxi was speechless. Although he didn't know what Kari Gongduo meant, he also knew that there would be no good results in fighting monsters as a mortal. He wasn't afraid at first, but behind him were two girls -
-Two girls who cannot be relieved, and who need to be protected. Even if they leave the scene in such a mess, it is not enough for him to be a man, but compared to them, this is not important.
He put the sword back, suddenly turned around, took the two girls' wrists and walked away. Ye Zixu was a little confused and stumbled a little while walking. Aluan was anxious and ran to the master's side noisily.
As soon as she made a fuss, Ye Zixu came to his senses, and together with his brother, he pulled her and ran to a safe place.
"So, where is the Hundred Skeleton Master?"
"He is very safe...you have to trust me."
Kari Gondo was still smiling, a smile that disgusted him. He even felt that Mr. Shi's businessman-like smile had become cute.
He cleared his throat and took two steps closer to Shanhai.
"Taoist Master Lin, I don't want to fight with you. I was entrusted by others to guide you sincerely, why don't you trust me? Furthermore, if I really want to kill you, what do I want from you? I'm just following orders.
.If you want to come, let me do whatever you want."
What he said is indeed correct. No matter which one of them visited Qingli Ze for the first time, they should not have any interaction with Kari Goutuo or Satsuki-kun himself before. It's just that his motives for doing things are impure and mean.
It's unclear, so it's hard to avoid people thinking too much. Shan Hai was silent for a long time, and put down the peach wood sword.
"That's right," he said with a smile, "Then, please come with me. Oh, by the way, I want to ask the Taoist Master... have you ever considered seeking immortal prescriptions and attaining enlightenment and ascending to heaven?"
"...What do you want to say?"
"Don't be nervous, let's chat casually."
Mu Wan followed Chengyou for a long time. Along the way, he told many things about Xueyan Valley. When he went to visit Wu Yuangui, she had just left the valley not long ago, and the changes were not too big. But that was it.
Mu Wan never got tired of hearing about children's affairs.
"Miss Liangqiu really has a deep affection for the sect." He sighed.
"That's natural," she said. "As long as I can remember, I have been living in the Xueyan Sect."
"Your senior brother also said something about you... I'm sorry for what happened to your father."
"Ah...hey, it's okay."
"You have an older brother who is also an official in the capital, I heard?"
"No, he is not in the capital... He is far away now. He was originally with my father. After my father was framed, he was also affected and was sent to a place far away. Even we don't know.
"
Cheng You sighed deeply.
"That's why I prefer landscapes... People are just like this, and they can't be painted. If you see the scenery from far and near, you will be able to paint it. If you cut open the human heart and the outside, you can't see why."
"...That's what I'm saying."
"By the way, Liangqiu, have you ever thought about... what to do if you can't find the sect leader? Hey, think about it before you answer."
Mu Wan wanted to blurt out, "No, I will definitely find it." But after hearing his last words, she didn't know how to answer. In other words, she didn't even think about not being able to find it.
"...I am determined to find it and go back."
"Why don't you go back if you can't find it?" Cheng You pursed his lips slightly, "That's fine. Live an ordinary life like an ordinary person."
Mu Wan didn't know how to answer. Maybe she was still young and always felt that her life was destined to be anything but ordinary.
"How should I put it... Mr. Cheng, Master is the person I admire the most, just like my biological father." She tried to explain, "He is very important to me. I will definitely and believe that I can find him. Mr. Cheng has no respect."
Someone?"
Cheng You paused for a moment, as if he didn't expect her to say that. He thought for a moment and responded:
"Yes. Moreover, I am also on the way to find it. But if you put it this way... I can understand your mood. I wish you the best."
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange rustling sound came from the surroundings. Mu Wan immediately grabbed the handle of the umbrella alertly and looked around. Cheng You also looked left and right. At this time, someone rushed out from the forest on the side of the path, and stood in front of him.
He landed on the stone in front of them. But just for a moment, he immediately stood up and disappeared into the forest on the other side.
Enough is enough for this moment.
Mu Wan clearly saw that the man's face was covered with a mask. The red patterns on the mask outlined the strange corners of his mouth, which she was all too familiar with.
Smiling man.
Mu Wan suddenly turned around and saluted Cheng You abruptly.
