"Mr. Mu, to be honest, today's Shenqitang has gone against the trend of the times. Today's trend is a turbulent current. The emperor is cruel and dissolute, the ministers are corrupt and corrupt, and the nobles and nobles are extravagant. From the royal family,
When you go to the temple, you only treat the common people as leeks, and no one cares about the life and death of the people. The whole world is in trouble and I am alone, and this is particularly annoying."
Mu Qingxue clasped her hands together, sat upright, and straightened her back:
"Then what do you think we should do? Integrate into the trend and join in the trend?"
"Of course not." Shen Lang's eyes were bright: "If you don't destroy it, you won't establish it. If you destroy it, you will establish it. With the reputation of our God's Catching Hall among the people, as long as Master Yan raises his arms and shouts, there will be countless followers..."
Mu Qingxue chuckled:
"I have long felt that you are not a person with a bone in your brain, but a person growing on top of your brain."
Shen Lang said seriously:
"Mr. Mu, what you said is unfair. I am not rebelling. If the monarch is wise, the people are upright, and the sea is clear and the rivers are clean, how can I be rebelling? I just feel that the current emperor is cruel and cruel.
, there is no good person in the royal family. Bailong, Qiankun is probably even more cruel than the emperor.
"After all, the Black Lotus Demon Cave and the adventures I have experienced in the Relic Mansion are all related to the White Dragon and Qiankun. If the royal family takes the lead and follows the example, can the common people live a good life?"
Mu Qingxue said leisurely:
"But you know, since ancient times, when dynasties change and heroes compete for hegemony, it has always been the top power that determines whether a force can rise. People's support is important, but it is not important either.
"No matter how you win the support of the people, if you don't have enough and strong enough top warriors, you won't be able to achieve anything.
"Emperor Taizu was able to sweep away the heroes and unify the Eastern Territory, not because he was kind and loving to the people, but because his martial arts was unparalleled and invincible in the world. He was also followed by many strong men of the third level, such as Zhenren Qiankun."
Shen Lang slapped him:
"Isn't this a coincidence? Master Yan is also the leader of the contemporary heroes, number one in the world. He also has Wanfa Zhenren, a virtuous wife. He also has you under his command, Yan Baotou and Wu Baotou, three strong men of the third rank...
"Although there is something wrong with Lord Liuli, and the righteous path has lost a strong pillar, the killing arhats who have no dealings with the royal family can also be recruited as allies. Overseas, there is also the Dragon King of the Seven Seas who has been working in Nanyang for many years. Hiss... after calculation, I
Fang has a great chance of winning!"
Yan Tianying, Wanfa Zhenren, Shasheng Arhat, Dragon King of the Seven Seas, the nine first-ranked ones in the East Earth, there are four here.
What about the royal family?
There are only two people, Bailong and Qiankun. Even if Master Wulei really has a secret appointment with Bailong, there are only three of them.
Is it okay for Yan Tianying to be able to support both of them?
Wanfa Zhenren is left. Killing Arhat and the Dragon King of the Seven Seas will fight one of them. Isn’t it easy?
The more Shen Lang thought about it, the more he realized that he had a great chance of winning, and he had already begun to figure out what kind of political system he should adopt after replacing Chu.
While thinking about it, Mu Qingxue said quietly:
"Do you think we have a great advantage?"
Shen Lang was startled and nodded without hesitation:
"I think the advantage is not huge, but absolute."
Mu Qingxue said:
"You don't count the mighty Bodhisattva, do you?"
Shen Lang said:
"Even if Dawei joins Bailong, the world is on the same side, and Master Yan won't play with him..."
Mu Qingxue sighed:
"Then have you ever thought about it... If Bailong, Qiankun and Dawei collude, at the last moment, they are likely to launch a large-scale blood sacrifice, sacrifice a city or even several cities of people, summon the incarnation of the devil and Buddha, and burn them all?"
"this……"
Shen Lang frowned, but he really had never thought of this possibility - the rebellion story in his mind really did not have such a situation. The only one with a bit of fantasy was Liu Xiu's great stone-killing technique.
But after Mu Qingxue mentioned it, he realized that the historical process of this world was not only never controlled by ordinary people, but also when calculating the strength comparison between the two sides, one cannot just look at the number of strong people on the surface.
Because in this world, there is still such a hellish place as "Star Abyss".
With the cruelty and selfishness of the royal family, it is absolutely possible for Bailong and Qiankun to sacrifice tens of millions of people and summon the demon Buddha to come as a last resort.
Mu Qingxue said again:
"This is only the last resort. Even if this method is not used, the strength of the Da Chu royal family is not as simple as it appears. The two magic weapons that Emperor Taizu relied on to dominate the world, the Nine Sun Sword and the War Soul Flag, even if they are only in the
In the hands of the emperor, the power of the second level can also be exerted. The emperor is just a fake fourth level made of magic pills.
"If these two magic weapons are activated by Da Zhenren, their power will be even more unbelievable. And the royal family's heritage is much more than that. In the devil's cave, the monster that looks like the heroic overlord 'Li Jin' is the one you think is the most powerful."
It’s possible, whose arrangement was it?”
Shen Lang was silent for a while and said slowly:
"Master Qiankun?"
Mu Qingxue nodded:
"That's right. Although there is no name 'Li Jin' in the history books, if that heroic overlord really existed, then only Qiankun Zhenren, who lived from the end of the previous dynasty until now, has the ability to read from the official history books
Among them, delete his name."
Shen Lang frowned and said slowly:
"Do you suspect that that monster is also the 'background' of Master Qiankun?"
Mu Qingxue looked solemn:
"Before Guo Kai, the person who discovered the devil's cave may be Master Qiankun. The monster that resembles Li Jin may also be the arrangement of Master Qiankun.
"Due to their temperament, all the powerful overlords who fought for hegemony in troubled times were basically warriors, unless there was a cult rebellion, while Taoist monks basically only served as military advisors and assistant ministers.
"And a first-grade warrior has a characteristic. Even if his soul is destroyed, as long as his physical body is not deliberately destroyed, his physical body can still survive for many years.
"Of course, that situation is just a living dead, and because without the soul, you are essentially dead, and can easily be corroded by the aura of the netherworld and turn into a powerful and terrifying zombie. Therefore, no one dares to easily retain the body of a first-grade warrior.
"But Master Qiankun may have mastered some kind of secret method. He can borrow the magic power of the Star Abyss in the Demon Cave to transform Li Jin, who has lost his soul, into the monster in the lava river...
"If this speculation is true, then Master Qiankun, who has always kept a low profile and is not as public as Bailong, is probably even more terrifying than Bailong."
Although there is no solid evidence, as the criminal investigation department, Shenbaitang is supposed to speculate on all possibilities, make bold assumptions, and carefully verify.
Mu Qingxue's speculation has a very strong support point, that is, Venerable Liuli does not lie, at least before she became the "Six Desire Witch", she never lied.
Since she said that at the end of the previous dynasty, there was a heroic overlord "Li Jin", then there should really be such a person in history.
However, now, the powerful overlord of one side has no name in the history books. This must be because his name and deeds have been deleted from the history books many years ago.
The only person who can do this is Master Qiankun who is older than Da Chu and stands at the top of Da Chu in terms of power and strength.
With such a supporting point, Mu Qingxue's speculation is no longer groundless conjecture.
The giant monster in the lava river is probably really the arrangement of Master Qiankun, and is the "underlying" controlled by him!
"Master Qiankun has lived for more than one hundred and fifty years. He has lived from the end of the previous dynasty to the present. All the top experts of his generation have withered away, and he is the only one who is still alive.
"I am afraid no one in the world today knows how many secrets such a being has mastered and how deep it is. Apart from the giant monster in the devil's cave, does he have any other similar arrangements? No one knows.
"
Mu Qingxue looked at Shen Lang and said leisurely:
"Do you still feel that I have a huge advantage and the chance of winning is mine?"
Because Shen Lang had two head-on conflicts with Bailong's disciples, he had always regarded Master Bailong as his formidable enemy. As for Qiankun, he only had some fears.
But now after Mu Qingxue's analysis, Shen Lang was shocked to realize that Qiankun Zhenren, who has never had a direct conflict with him, usually behaves in a low-key manner, and has been staying at home in recent years, is probably the only one who has never done anything.
It's a truly unfathomable big boss.
Even an ordinary person, as long as he lives long enough and has a high enough status, may master countless secrets and hide countless trump cards, not to mention Qiankun, a first-class great master who has always been at the apex of power in Da Chu and has lived from troubled times to today?
Now the "underlying information" of Qiankun has been revealed, and the tip of the iceberg has been revealed.
And just this corner is enough to make people frightened - the strength of the giant monster in the lava river cannot be underestimated.
It is still sleeping and can suppress Mu Qingxue with only one tentacle.
After Lord Liuli comes, he can only make him fall asleep again, but cannot purify him.
It can be seen from this that the strength of that giant monster, at least its physical body, can make a first-level great master helpless.
Having said that, being able to soak in a lava river and fall asleep shows how powerful his physical body is.
Seeing Shen Lang's miserable face, Mu Qingxue smiled slightly and said:
"If you feel unwilling to do so, just practice hard. You are the first prodigy in history to be able to practice both magic and martial arts. If you can master both magic and martial arts in the future, maybe..."
Mu Qingxue stopped talking and did not continue speaking.
Shen Lang was silent for a while and then smiled:
"Speaking of which, it's a good thing that the monster in the lava river was exposed. Wait until Lord Yan comes back and tell him about it, and then ask Venerable Liuli about the location of the devil's cave. Then it will be fun. No matter how strong the monster is,
, can you still withstand Lord Yan’s fist?”
Mu Qingxue is not as optimistic about this:
"Master Yan is back, and of course Qiankun is back. If he detects traces of a real person casting spells in the devil's cave, he may move the monsters. You know, Qiankun is a formation master who is proficient in space movement. Senior Liuli is ill.
, cannot be dispatched, in terms of speed of action, no one in the world can match Zhenren Qiankun."
…
Yan Tianying and Wanfa Zhenren returned to the capital at dusk.
Yan Tianying's condition is not bad, nothing unusual can be seen.
Zhenren Wanfa looked a little tired and his face was a little pale.
To be able to make a first-grade great master look pale and tired, it is obvious that the demonic wave that broke out in Genting Demon Palace is very dangerous.
Just after he came back, before he could take a breath, Yan Tianying received reports from Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue.
Wan Fa Zhenren learned that his best friend had been infected by the devil and was on the verge of becoming a demon. He immediately refused to rest and took two verses written in Shen Lang's handwriting to visit Fa Liuli's secret realm of the universe. By the way, he also wanted to inquire about that
The specific location of the Demon Cave.
Yan Tianying stayed in the Yamen, listening to Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue state their speculations about "Li Jin".
"Li Jin..."
After listening to Mu Qingxue's speculation, Yan Tianying frowned and recalled for a while, and then said slowly:
"I have heard of the name Li Jin.
"When I was young, I heard a story told by a long-lived old man in my hometown. It said that in the late period of the early period, there was a powerful overlord named Li Jin who defeated Taizu three times in the early days of his business.
"The worst time was when Taizu was beaten until his entire army was almost destroyed, and he fled in panic with only a hundred remaining soldiers...
"But after Emperor Taizu's disastrous defeat, he got a blessing in disguise. When he was on the run, he strayed into a mysterious place and obtained the Nine Sun Sword and the Fighting Soul Flag.
"Taizu and his hundreds of remnant soldiers rested in a secret realm for a year, and their strength improved greatly. After they came out, they destroyed Li Jin's forces in one battle. After that, they soared into the sky, and their rise was unstoppable."
Hearing this, Shen Lang couldn't help but wonder:
"Li Jin was Taizu's early rival, and Taizu's experience of finally defeating him is also quite legendary, even a bit like 'fate favored by fate'. Such a story should be written down in the history books to praise Taizu."
The ancestors were tenacious and unyielding, and destiny was given to them, so why did the history books not record Li Jin’s deeds?”
Yan Tianying shook his head:
"I didn't know why. When I was a kid, I just thought of it as a story and just listened to it. After all, it wasn't in the book! But I didn't think that... the story might be true, and that Li Jin might actually be a real person."
Speaking of this, his expression gradually became serious:
"A heroic overlord who once defeated Taizu three times, but did not leave his name in the history books... The monster in the lava river has facial features similar to Li Jin... There seems to be a deep plan hidden in it. The planner is indeed
It is possible that he is the real person Qiankun."
As soon as I said this, there was a jingle hanging outside the door, and there was a faint scent of fragrance, but it was Master Wanfa who came back.
Yan Tianying quickly stood up to greet him:
"How is Liuli doing?"
Master Wanfa shook his head:
"It's not good. I didn't see her, I only spoke a few words with her across the screen, but even just hearing her voice... I was actually affected to some extent."
After a pause, he looked at Shen Lang again:
"You are very good. Liuli asked me to tell you that those two verses were very helpful to her. She asked me to express her gratitude to you on her behalf."
Shen Lang was also dissatisfied and said:
"I dare not. Your Majesty has been very kind to his disciples, and I should try my best to repay him."
Master Wanfa nodded slightly and looked at Shen Lang like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became -
Although Mu Qingxue is not her disciple, she and Yan Tianying have a master-disciple relationship. And Qin Qing is her first disciple.
This kid Shen Lang not only paid homage to Mu Qingxue in front of her and Yan Tianying, but also had an appointment with Qin Qing. So to Master Wanfa, Shen Lang was really her son-in-law.
And this son-in-law is not only talented, but also extremely talented, very reliable, calm, cautious and courageous.
The most important thing is that the first-grade great master is in trouble, but with his current cultivation level, he can actually help.
With such a good son-in-law, Wan Fa Zhenren feels that from now on he and Yan Tianying will transcend and become immortals. Even if Qin Qing, the successor of the mantle, is a little unreliable, Wan Fa Sect can still be passed down safely under Shen Lang's care.
Go down.
At this time, Yan Tianying asked again:
"Have you found out the specific location of that devil's cave?"
Master Wanfa nodded and said:
"Of course. It's deep underground among the mountains in the southwest. Speaking of which, it's only more than a thousand miles away from my Wanfamen Mountain Gate."
When he thought that just over a thousand miles away from his mountain gate, there was a magical cave where a large number of Star Abyss monsters were born and a big monster was sleeping, Wanfa Zhenren was in a very bad mood.
If we hadn't noticed this all along, and one day the monsters from the Demon Cave surged out, wouldn't Wanfamen Mountain Gate be the first to bear the brunt?
A distance of more than a thousand miles is not a safe distance for the monsters in the Star Abyss, especially the big monster that even the magic glass cannot purify.
"Leave immediately to meet that monster for a while!"
Yan Tianying acted resolutely and immediately walked out of the study room. He wanted to go to Wanfamen Mountain Gate through the teleportation array with Master Wanfa first, and then go to the Demon Cave to explore.
Speaking of which, the Demon Cave is so close to Wanfamen Mountain Gate. Although it will be a serious threat to Wanfamen in the long run, it is convenient for Yan Tianying and Wanfa Zhenren to go there at the moment.
Of course Mu Qingxue and Shen Lang also wanted to follow, but Yan Tianying raised his hand to stop them:
"You got married last night, and you started running around to investigate before dawn today. You also experienced a lot of dangers. Now you'd better stay in the Yamen and have a good rest. Don't worry, if the monster is still there, it will definitely die."
Mu Qingxue also knew that he was still unable to intervene in a first-level fight, let alone Shen Lang.
At that moment, the two of them had no choice but to stop and watch Yan Tianying and Master Wanfa leave.
"What do we do next?"
"It's dinner time, let's go to the dining hall to eat first."
"Okay. By the way, how about I feed you some?"
"..."
Mu Qingxue didn't speak, she just folded her hands around her chest and looked at Shen Lang with narrowed eyes, her eyes a little dangerous.
"Mr. Mu, what's your expression? Can you stop thinking wrongly? I mean you are on a business trip and haven't eaten the ramen I made for a long time. I plan to go to the dining hall kitchen and make you a ramen myself..."
Mu Qingxue snorted softly:
"You did good things when you were in the cave this morning, and you still have the nerve to accuse me of being wrong?"
Shen Lang whispered:
"We are both a serious couple, isn't that a serious way of being a husband and wife? Besides, I will eat you too..."
"Don't say it!"
Mu Qingxue covered Shen Lang's mouth, her pretty face turned red, and she carefully used her Qi machine to sense for a while, confirming that there were no ears through the wall, and then she breathed a sigh of relief. She glared at Shen Lang angrily again:
"Don't say such things in public in the future!"
"Okay, okay, from now on we will only talk in private rooms...Okay, I won't say it anywhere. I'll talk less and do more. That's okay, right?"
Just as Shen Lang was making Mu Qingxue blush from time to time, he was walking with her to the dining hall and kitchen.
That is an underground cave located deep in the southwest mountains.
On the ground, a white light flashed, and a circular array composed of countless runes unfolded out of thin air.
After a moment, a tall figure emerged from the magic circle.
He looked like a middle-aged man with a majestic face, a mustache, wearing a red Taoist robe with gold trim, and a bun.
He came to the lava river, took out a fist-sized red orb, and threw it into the lava river.
The red orb fell into the lava river, but did not sink. Instead, it floated on the river surface, slowly rotating, emitting a terrifying suction force, and swallowing the heat of the lava like a black hole.
As the heat is continuously absorbed by the orb, the red magma quickly turns gray and solidifies into rock. The orb becomes brighter and brighter, and soon changes from red to blazing white, like a small sun.
A moment later, an angry roar suddenly came from the bottom of the lava river.
A huge tentacle, burning with red flames and covered with eye-like red patterns, lifted up the solidified river surface with a bang, carrying a splash of magma, like a collapsed giant pillar, and smashed hard at the orb.
When the middle-aged man saw this, he raised his hand towards the orb with an expressionless face. The orb buzzed and emitted an invisible wave.
Invisible waves swept across the tentacles, and the huge tentacles suddenly seemed to be under a immobilization spell, freezing in the air motionless.
After that, the middle-aged man made a secret gesture with his hands, quickly formed the seals, and muttered something in his mouth.
The crimson orb then rotated rapidly, emitting stronger suction power.
The huge tentacle fixed in mid-air was pulled by the suction force and slowly moved towards the orb.
Soon, the top of the tentacle touched the orb, and then merged into it strangely.
A huge tentacle that was as thick as two people hugging each other at its thickest part and more than twenty feet long was actually sucked into an orb no bigger than a fist!
Not only that, after this tentacle was sucked in, more tentacles opened up the solidified lava river one after another and were sucked in by the orb.
After all the dozens of tentacles were sucked in, the half-body of the twenty-meter-tall giant was also dragged upside down out of the lava river and thrown into the orb.
However, after absorbing such a large monster, the size of the orb did not change at all and was still only the size of a fist.
When the entire monster was absorbed, the middle-aged man raised his hand again, and the blazing white orb flew back into his palm.
The middle-aged man held the orb in his hand, squinting his eyes and staring at the orb blooming with strong light.
I saw a sea of blazing white fire inside the orb.
There was another red monster whose head was half human and whose lower body was dozens of tentacles. It was swimming slowly in the sea of fire.
"The Red Demon God of the Five Demon Gods... It's a pity that even with the help of the magic power of the Star Abyss, under the suppression of the laws of heaven and earth, a real demon god cannot be cultivated in the mortal world..."
The middle-aged man sighed softly and looked around the grotto:
"In order to plot against a little second-grade warrior, and a mere fifth-grade Taoist monk, they actually took advantage of my absence to destroy such a treasured place like mine... If grandson Gray hadn't still been of some use..."
Before he finished speaking, as if he had sensed something, a circular array formed by countless runes and rituals spread out under the middle-aged man's feet. Then he flashed and disappeared without a trace.
The middle-aged man disappeared not long ago.
On the dome of the grotto, there was a loud bang, and a huge hole opened. Two figures fell from the sky and landed lightly on the ground.
It is Yan Tianying and Wanfa Zhenren.
Master Wanfa held a compass in his hand, looked down at the compass and said:
"This is it! As expected, there is a very strong power of the Star Abyss! Compared to the outside of Yunding Demon Palace, it is only slightly inferior. Although there are laws of heaven and earth to balance it, if the power of the Star Abyss is allowed to erode, this place may become
It has become a demon cave embedded in the human world, and an outpost for monsters from the Star Abyss to invade the human world!"
Yan Tianying looked around and said:
"How does it compare to the threat of Genting Demon Palace?"
Wan Fa Zhen said:
"The current threat is average, far less than that of the Genting Demon Palace. The powerful Xingyuan demons cannot enter this place. The demons that enter this place are also restricted by the laws of the world and cannot leave for the time being. But the future is uncertain."
Yan Tianying asked:
"Can't we completely cut off the star abyss erosion?"
Master Wanfa frowned and shook his head:
"I'm afraid not. This is a naturally formed 'wonder' that cannot be stopped by human power. The power of the star abyss here has reached a delicate balance with the laws of heaven and earth, so that even the seal cannot be laid, and there is no key node that can erect the seal..."
Yan Tianying sighed:
"In this case... I have to ask Yuzhen to come over and clean up after a while, so as not to give the evil spirit a chance to grow stronger."
Master Wanfa nodded:
"Okay. It just so happens that this place is close to my mountain gate. I will set up an array to monitor this place at any time and beware of the emergence of a big demon."
"Thanks a lot."
"Haha, it's hard to work with a man like you."
Yan Tianying felt ashamed yet gratefully smiled, and gently shook Wanfa Zhenren's catkin. Although he didn't say anything touching, everything was left unsaid.
After a while of silence, Yan Tianying looked at the lava river again, only to see that the lava river had solidified. The lava rock layer full of pores on the river surface had many huge cracks, as if something huge was torn apart from underneath. rock formations.
"It seems we are still a step late."
Yan Tianying walked to the river, closed his eyes and felt the residual energy here for a while. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were extremely solemn:
"No wonder Liuli can't purify it. Judging from the remaining Qi of the monster, its physique is slightly better than that of a first-grade warrior!"
Master Wanfa said in surprise:
"Stronger than you?"
Yan Tianying said:
"A little stronger."
Master Wanfa solemnly said:
"If it is really Qiankun's fault... then we have to re-evaluate Qiankun's strength. There may be more than one similar monster. After all, in the age of heroes fighting for hegemony, just one of the first-class monsters killed by Chu Taizu himself Two great masters and three great masters."
Yan Tianying smiled calmly:
"I have never underestimated Qiankun. Who dares to underestimate an old monster like him who is older than Dachu? But that monster in the lava river, if it is true that Qiankun was forged by the heroic overlord Li Jin, then It lacks one most important thing."
"What?"
"Will. No matter how strong the overlord Li Jin was during his lifetime, or what a powerful monster he became later, as long as he is controlled by others, he will no longer have his own martial arts will. But for warriors like us, martial arts will, It’s more important than physical fitness.”
Yan Tianying's tone exuded strong confidence:
"This is the human world. Even if the monster's body is slightly better than mine, it will never reach the level of an earthly immortal, a god, or a demon. And as long as it is still in the realm of the human world and has no martial will, it cannot be my opponent. "
Master Wanfa smiled sweetly:
"If the juniors saw your arrogant and arrogant attitude now, they would probably laugh at you."
Yan Tianying held her hand:
"I will only occasionally show off in front of you. Everyone says that I am mature, but who hasn't been a young man who chases the wind?"
…
The Yamen of Shenqutang, the dining hall and the kitchen.
Shen Lang was kneading dough with water inside, preparing to make ramen, when Gu Hongye suddenly poked his head in and said with a smile:
"Master Shen, please help me make a pound of ramen too!"
Shen Lang smiled and said, "Just one pound for dinner?"
Gu Hongye touched her belly:
"Since I was promoted to the middle stage of the fourth grade, my appetite has suddenly become much smaller. If it weren't for Master Shen's delicious noodles, I wouldn't be able to eat a pound."
When a warrior reaches the fourth level, he can draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his body and condense his true energy.
Before this, warriors condensed their internal strength from their own Qi and blood.
Of course, the human body's qi and blood cannot be created out of nothing, it must be supported by enough energy.
And inner strength realm warriors cannot directly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so even if they take various tonics or even elixirs to replenish their energy, their appetites are still as big as rice buckets.
Until the fourth level, or to be precise, until the middle stage of the fourth level when "Qi Seeds" turn into "Zhen Qi Vortex", one can breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at any time during daily breathing, and can replace part of the consumed Qi and blood with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
At this time, the appetite will gradually decrease.
In response to Gu Hongye's request, Shen Lang was about to meet more, when Bai Shishi also poked her head from the door:
"Master Shen, I want two kilograms of ramen."
"I know, you go wait outside first and don't cause trouble here."
"okay."
Bai Shishi quickly retracted her head and went to the dining hall with Gu Hongye. She saw Mu Qingxue sitting in the corner of the dining hall, holding a snow-white kitten and stroking it happily.
Bai Shishi and Gu Hongye had of course met Mu Qingxue a long time ago. Otherwise, they wouldn't have known that Shen Lang was making ramen in the back kitchen. Now they walked over to sit opposite her without noticing anything.
Gu Hongye looked at the little white cat in Mu Qingxue's arms and said:
"Mr. Mu, I seem to have seen this kitten somewhere."
"This is Shen Lang's cat."
"Oh, let me tell you, I met him at Mr. Shen's house. Mr. Mu, do you like cats?"
"Um."
"Then why don't you have a cat at home?"
"Maybe it's because I'm too mighty and domineering, so the cats are afraid of me. Only Shen Lang's cat is not afraid of me."
"Haha... Mr. Mu really loves to joke."
Gu Hongye and Mu Qingxue lived diagonally across from each other. They went shopping and drank heavily together. They had dinner and late-night snacks at Shen Lang's house. They also practiced swordsmanship under Mu Qingxue's guidance. They worshiped heaven and earth together last night. They felt so good in their hearts.
He regarded himself and Mu Qingxue as a family, and they didn't make any remarks when talking and laughing.
Although Bai Shishi also worshiped Heaven and Earth, she had only heard of Mu Qingxue's name before, but had never met him in person. She didn't officially know him until yesterday, so she was a little reserved and couldn't get in to talk.
Mu Qingxue was cold on the outside, but actually very soft on the inside. Seeing Bai Shishi's reserved look when she wanted to speak but couldn't get in her words, she took the initiative to say to her:
"Shishi also likes kittens?"
"Uh, well, I prefer spiders..."
The reason why I like spiders is not because I have been a Spider Walker. Bai Shishi has really liked spiders since she was a child.
This is not only true for her, but also for all the seven spider sisters.
The reason why they were selected by the Spider Mother, inspired by the devil in their dreams, and became Spider Mother Walkers was not only that they were infiltrated by the demonic energy that had remained in Luling Mansion for many years when they were still in the womb, and were born with special physiques, this hobby was different from that of ordinary girls.
, is also an important reason.
"Like spiders?" Gu Hongye said in surprise: "Aren't spiders scary? I was quite afraid of spiders when I was a child."
Bai Shishi smiled and said: "It's okay. Spiders are actually very cute, and they can also help us catch bugs. They are beneficial insects."
Gu Hongye shook his head repeatedly:
"I can't accept it anyway."
Mu Qingxue was not very fond of spiders.
But thinking about the little spider that always danced on Shen Lang's shoulder in the dream with a handful of silver-white hairs on its head, Mu Qingxue had to admit that individual spiders were still a bit cute - even though that little spider
The spider's true identity is the terrifying and ferocious Star Demon God.
Gu Hongye said again:
"Speaking of which, Shen Lang's family also raised a little rabbit. It's a little bigger than a palm. It squats quietly under the eaves and eats vegetables every day. It doesn't jump or make any fuss, which is quite cute."
rabbit?
Bai Shishi shuddered and almost instinctively hugged her chest in defense - Shen Lang's little white rabbit seemed harmless to humans and animals, but it left a heavy psychological shadow on her.
The talkative Gu Hongye continued to talk:
"There is also Shen Lang's Taoist skeleton, a very special little skeleton with extremely powerful swordsmanship. Before I left Beijing on a business trip, I sparred with it every day, and my swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds... If it hadn't been for this experience, I would have With Mr. Mu's advice, when I went out to catch the flower-picking thief, I really couldn't break through and kill the thief."
If she can't kill the thief, she won't be able to get the secret book of the Qi Sect that opened the door to her new world - it's not the secret book of the evil sect, it's the serious secret book of the dual cultivation of the Qi Sect. It's just that some people have dark minds, so they will He practiced the evil skill of gathering yin and replenishing yang.
When used by serious people, it is a dual cultivation method that is beneficial to both parties.
Even women can benefit. Although women’s spiritual practice cannot increase their power, they can enjoy life, right?
Unfortunately, although she had already worshiped, Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue did not summon her last night, leaving her with no use for this wonderful skill.
And hearing Gu Hongye talk about "little skeleton", Bai Shishi couldn't help but shudder again.
That little skeleton was not a good person. Not only did he beat her up, but he almost picked her hamstring. He also grabbed one of her feet and dragged her across the field. At the underground altar of Tianxiang Society, He also created a ghost story and killed the spider sisters to death.
Therefore, Little Skeleton and Bai Shishi also have a heavy psychological shadow.
Seeing Gu Hongye telling the story of practicing swordsmanship with the little skeleton with gusto, Bai Shishi thought to herself that these girls are so innocent and don't know anything about the little monster raised by Shen Lang's family...
But having said that, she lived next door to Shen Lang, but she didn't know how scary the little monsters in Shen Lang's family were. Bai Shishi felt that she would be closer to Shen Lang.
At least I was not only beaten violently by Shen Lang, but also saved by him, right?
At this time, Mu Qingxue asked Bai Shishi again:
"Do you have any clues about the fourth grade of poetry?"
"I can sense the spiritual power of heaven and earth, but I don't dare to bring the spiritual power into my body for the time being..."
Bai Shishi was born with a special physique, and it was not a problem for her to sense the wisdom of heaven and earth.
Of course, now that there is no help from the devil, it will be an extremely difficult hurdle to bring the spiritual machine into the body.
Mu Qingxue said:
"Don't be anxious. Being able to sense the spiritual power of heaven and earth easily on your own means that you have the talent of the fourth grade and already have the foundation for entry into the fourth grade. If you are not sure now, you will first perceive the spiritual power of heaven and earth many times, come into contact with it, and gradually become familiar with it. It’s my nature. Wait until you are sure before you try it formally.”
Bai Shishi nodded gratefully:
"Thank you Master Mu for your advice."
While he was talking, Shen Lang came over carrying a huge tray.
On the tray, there are four bowls of different sizes.
The largest one, which is similar to a small basin, is naturally Bai Shishi's two kilograms of noodles.
The two medium-sized ones are Shen Lang and Gu Hongye’s Yijin noodles.
The smallest one is Mu Qingxue's three ounces of noodles.
"Here you come, give way!"
"Thank you, Master Shen!" Gu Hongye took his bowl of noodles and thanked him with a smile.
"Master Shen is so great!" Bai Shishi also took her basin of noodles and said with a sweet smile.
Shen Lang placed a bowl of food in front of Mu Qingxue and said with a smile:
"It's a pity that there are no chili peppers, otherwise I would make some spicy oil and pour it on the noodles... I guarantee you won't get enough of the taste."
"What is chili?" Gu Hongye asked clearly while chewing the noodles.
"A flavoring plant."
"Like onions, garlic, ginger, and leeks, they grow out of the soil?"
"No, the pepper plant can grow about this high, bloom with small white flowers, and bear small green fruits at the beginning. The fruits will gradually grow up and turn into red fruits when mature. They look like this..."
Shen Lang dipped his head into some noodle soup and drew a chili on the table.
"Never seen it." Gu Hongye shook his head.
"I haven't seen it either." Bai Shishi also said she didn't know.
Mu Qingxue actually said: "I seem to have seen a fruit with this shape somewhere..."
After thinking for a while, he said:
"By the way, I went to Wanfamen Mountain Gate with Mr. Yan the summer before last and saw some fruits on the wild slope outside the gate. But they were pale yellow and not that big. They only had one little finger.
So long. Second Junior Sister Chu Lu told me that this fruit is poisonous. Although it is not poisonous to death, eating it will make your tongue feel like it is on fire, make you drool, and make your lips red and swollen..."
Shen Lang's eyes lit up:
"This is chili pepper! It turns out that there are chili peppers in the mountains of the southwest! Mr. Mu, next time we go to Wanfamen together, you take me to find that kind of fruit. I will transplant and cultivate them to reduce their spiciness.
Come down and it will be delicious!”
The spiciness of wild chili peppers is probably as poisonous as normal people cannot eat them. But with little rabbits around, it is absolutely no problem to cultivate them into delicious chili peppers with moderate spiciness.
"Okay, if we go to Wanfamen together next time, I will take you to find chili peppers."
To end this topic, Gu Hongye did a fancy job for Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue for some purpose.
She put a noodle into her mouth, closed her mouth, and fluttered her pink cheeks for a while, then stuck out her tongue, and saw a bow made of noodles hanging on the tip of her tongue.
This handy work made Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue stunned for a moment, wondering how she did it.
Gu Hongye couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw the two people's stunned expressions, "How about it? I have a good tongue, right?"
Mu Qingxue sincerely praised: "Awesome!"
Shen Lang also sighed: "I admire you!"
Gu Hongye said seriously: "There are more powerful techniques, I'll let you try them if I have the chance."
The innocent Mu Qingxue nodded with a smile: "Okay."
However, Shen Lang felt something was wrong and felt that there was something in Gu Hongye's words.
Bai Shishi, who had been taught a lot of unhealthy knowledge by the "Jade Spider" Yue Ling'er, saw through Gu Hongye's intentions at a glance, and secretly whispered in her heart:
Gu Hongye looks dashing and a little arrogant, but I didn't expect that she is also a charming girl serving the master!
Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance!
