There was a coughing sound coming from the side. The sound was not loud, but it seemed a bit urgent. Lu Xueqi and the others looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw Tian Buyi sitting on the stone steps with a look of pain on his face.
Keep coughing
Lu Xueqi frowned slightly, with a trace of worry in her eyes. Based on Tian Buyi's previous behavior, he had already reached the point where he was immune to all diseases. Not to mention this small cough, it was obvious that Tian Buyi probably already had something in his body at this moment.
trauma
Lu Xueqi was silent, but Xiaohuan who was standing aside quietly walked forward.
Tian Buyi was slightly surprised. He raised his head and looked at Xiao Huan. Xiao Huan smiled and said: "This... senior, thank you for saving me, my grandfather and the Taoist priest a few days ago." Tian Buyi's face
He showed a little smile and said faintly in his tiredness: "It's a little trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning. It's just that this place is ominous and it's not a place you've been waiting to stay for a long time. If you don't have anything else to do, you'd better leave quickly." Zhou Xian nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes."
, Yes, what he said is absolutely true, Xiaohuan, let's go quickly. Xiaohuan rolled her eyes at her grandfather and said to Tian Buyi: "Senior, are you okay? Do you need my help?" Tian Buyi shook his head.
He shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Just leave. Otherwise, if that person comes back, I'm afraid you won't have such good luck to escape." After saying that, suddenly there was a vague look on his fat face.
After a trace of blackness, a look of pain appeared on his face again, and he couldn't help but cough again, and his voice seemed a little hoarse than before.
The lich stood alone, staring at Tian Buyi, watching every move of Tian Buyi. On his face covered by black cloth, only a pair of eyes revealed a thoughtful look.
Xiaohuan couldn't help but urged Yiyi Xian behind him. At the same time, it seemed that he couldn't be of much help, so he lowered his head to Tian Buyi and said goodbye, then followed Yiyi Xian and Wild Dog Taoist and walked out.
But after walking a few steps, she couldn't help but glance at the Lich standing aside, as if she had discovered something. She was startled for a moment and said to Zhou Yixian: "Grandpa, look at what that person is wearing."
Is it exactly the same as my... that master?" Zhou Xian didn't react for a while, and said in shock: "What master... uh" After a pause, Zhou Xian narrowed his eyes, looked at the lich, and pondered for a moment,
Said: "There are too many weirdos and monsters in this world. It's hard to guarantee that there will be a few people who are similar to you...that pretending master. Ignore him. Let's leave quickly." Xiaohuan responded and followed, but still endured it.
He couldn't help but look back at the lich, and saw that the lich didn't seem to notice the three people on Zhou Xian's side at all. He just stood there silently, staring at Tian Buyi.
Soon, Zhou Yixian, Xiaohuan and Wild Dog Taoist also left this abandoned village. The place that originally seemed desolate suddenly became more deserted, and Tian Buyi and Lu Xueqi's attention soon
They all looked at the mysterious man in black.
Tian Buyi said calmly: "Is there anything else, sir?" The lich was silent for a while, his eyes moved from Tian Buyi to Lu Xueqi, and finally looked at Tian Buyi. After a while, he seemed to hesitate to speak, and finally said one word
Without saying anything, his body floated backwards, quietly blending into the darkness of the night.
The night wind was cold and blowing from afar. There was no sound in the entire abandoned village for a while. Even the common insects in the wilderness were not heard. There was a dead silence.
For some reason, Lu Xueqi suddenly felt uneasy in her heart.
Tian Buyi looked up at the sky for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something.
Lu Xueqi didn't know why he was suddenly distracted, so she didn't dare to disturb him for a while. However, after a while, she didn't see any movement from Tian Buyi, and she was worried about whether Tian Buyi was injured. When she was about to ask, Tian Buyi suddenly lowered her head.
head, followed by a cough that was much more violent than before.
Lu Xueqi was startled and didn't know what to do, so she had to ask: "Uncle Tian, are you okay?" Tian Buyi coughed for a while and then slowly stopped. It seemed that he had recovered his breath.
He slowly shook his hand, indicating that he was fine.
Lu Xueqi still couldn't help but said: "Uncle Tian, this is not far from our Qingyun Mountain. I think we should go back to Qingyun first. After meeting with the teachers, we can make long-term plans." After hearing Lu Xueqi's words, Tian Buyi frowned, as if he suddenly remembered
What did she say? She turned to look at Lu Xueqi and said, "During my absence, how are you and Master Suru on Dazhu Peak?" Lu Xueqi nodded and said, "Everything is fine with them. It's just that everyone is fine."
I don't know where you are going, Master Tian, so I am very anxious." Tian Buyi smiled slightly, as if he had let go of a big stone in his heart, but there was a hint of bitterness in that smile.
Lu Xueqi saw Tian Buyi's expression in her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively: "Uncle Tian, they said just now that you were fighting with a demon. Who was that demon?" Tian Buyi glanced at Lu Xueqi.
, frowned and said nothing
Lu Xueqi met his gaze and suddenly discovered that in addition to being haggard, Master Tian's face also seemed to have a hint of black energy that should not appear on him, looming.
Could it be that the strange magic that imprisoned him damaged the energy in his body? Lu Xueqi was secretly worried, but there was another important thing in front of her that she couldn't help but face.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally asked Tian Buyi in a low but clear voice: "Is that person... the master Daoxuan master?" Tian Buyi's body shook, and a frightening light suddenly shot out of his eyes, and he said in a cold voice
"What did you say?" Lu Xueqi said hurriedly: "Before the disciple came down the mountain, he had the trust of his mentor and told her about a past incident in the ancestor's ancestral hall with Uncle Tian and Uncle Su." Tian Buyi was startled for a moment and looked at her face.
There was a look of astonishment on his face, but then he finally calmed down. After a long while, he sighed and said, "I didn't expect Shuiyue to tell you this." Lu Xueqi said, "My mentor is because he taught Daoxuan and Master Tian."
Uncle and you disappeared at the same time, and the Qingyun Sect was in chaos. Moreover, she was very worried that Senior Uncle Daoxuan had been trapped by inner demons. However, Senior Brother Xiao Yicai, the elder, clearly did not know about this, so she had to make a last-minute decision to let her guard Qingyun Mountain.
He asked his disciples to go down the mountain to look for the two of them. Tian Buyi was silent for a moment and said: "If you find the real master at the foot of the mountain, and if he turns out to be what your master fears, has Shuiyue told you?
What should we do?" Lu Xueqi's face turned slightly pale, as if this secret was also a huge burden for her. Under Tian Buyi's gaze, she took a deep breath and said decisively: "Before the disciple went down the mountain, he and I
Together with our mentor, we went to the Tongtian Peak Ancestral Hall and made a solemn oath in front of the memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Qingyun Sect: If the truth cannot be done, for the sake of the Qingyun Sect's reputation for thousands of years, the disciples must fight to the death, show no mercy, and never reveal it for the rest of their lives.
Tian Buyi looked deeply at Lu Xueqi, and finally nodded slowly, but let out a long sigh: "Although I don't like Shui Yue as a person, I have to say that she really taught a good disciple."
Lu Xueqi had no expression on her face, lowered her head and said, "Uncle Tian, you are exaggerating." Tian Buyi said calmly: "There are no less than a thousand disciples of the second generation of Qingyun Sect. Looking around, there are only a few who can take on this role."
Waiting for the important task, alas..." He was silent for a while and continued: "You guessed right just now. The person I fought with here a few days ago was none other than your master, Daoxuan. Although Lu Xueqi has already
He vaguely guessed it, but after hearing what Tian Buyi said with his own ears, he couldn't help but trembled. After a while, he whispered: "Then... the body of the old man, the master master..."
Tian Buyi snorted, shook his head, and sighed: "He is so deep in the mud that he can't extricate himself." Lu Xueqi was speechless.
Tian Buyi paused for a moment, then continued: "It's a long story with twists and turns, but since you already know the whole story, I have nothing to hide from you. That day, I first discovered that Senior Brother Daoxuan was indeed a little obsessed.
After going up to Tongtian Peak, we found out at the ancestor's ancestral hall that he was really... Later, we started fighting in the ancestor's ancestral hall, but although he was possessed by the devil, his Taoism did not weaken much. In the end, after a fight,
I was still restrained by him." Lu Xueqi listened on the side, but she was secretly surprised in her heart. She knew about the Taoist practice of Tian Buyi and Dao Xuan, and had seen it with her own eyes. These two top figures of the Qingyun Sect were...
A fight broke out in the back mountain of Tongtian Peak, and one can imagine the fierce fighting situation. Although Tian Buyi seemed to be understating it at the moment, the scene at that time was not difficult to imagine.
Tian Buyi showed a wry smile on his face and said: "I went there that day and I was well prepared. It would be the best if I could wake up Senior Brother Daoxuan. But if it really doesn't work, I can only try my best. I and I were in the ancestor's ancestral hall back then."
When your master, Shuiyue, overheard this secret, he heard Senior Brother Wan say that after being possessed by demons, the human guilds declined drastically due to the demonic power entering the body and the essence being damaged. Of course, I knew that Senior Brother Daoxuan’s Taoist guilds were better than mine.
Deeply, what I was thinking about that day was just to kill him together in case of emergency. After all, this matter must never be spread to outsiders." Lu Xueqi felt respectful in her heart and said sincerely: "Uncle Tian's intentions can be proved by the sun and the moon.
, the ancestors of all generations will definitely bless you." Tian Buyi shook his head and said: "Who would have thought that after I started fighting with Senior Brother Daoxuan, I found that although he was possessed by the devil, his Taoism was still as profound as before. After several fierce battles,
, I was still defeated and captured, but for some unknown reason, he had no intention of killing me. Instead, he secretly took me down the mountain to this ghostly abandoned village and imprisoned me here. Lu Xueqi was captured by him.
As a reminder, he hurriedly asked: "Uncle Tian, are you injured? I think you look very bad?" Tian Buyi was startled for a moment, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Lu Xueqi's words, but he understood it immediately and smiled slightly.
She laughed at herself: "Whoever was stuffed into that coffin and locked up for so many days would naturally not look good." Lu Xueqi frowned, still feeling a little uneasy in her heart, but she couldn't tell what was wrong for the moment.
Just keep silent
Tian Buyi glanced at her and said, "You already know about this, what are your plans now?" Lu Xueqi frowned and said, "Excuse me, Uncle Tian, where is...Uncle Daoxuan, where is he now?"
?' Tian Buyi shook his head and said: 'After he became a demon, his behavior was completely unpredictable. He would often leave us alone and only come back after leaving for a few days. He just left this Yizhuang yesterday.
It will take a few more days for him to come back, but he can't tell for sure. Occasionally, he will come back the next day. Lu Xueqi hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle Tian, why don't we go back to the mountain first? Although this matter should not be publicized,
But as long as I find my mentor and Uncle Suru, the three of you will discuss it together and think there will be a good way.' Tian Buyi was silent for a moment, but finally shook his head and said: 'No, Senior Brother Daoxuan is now possessed by a demon.
His mind has changed drastically, and no one can predict what he will do. Secondly, if we return to the mountain this time but lose his whereabouts, what should we do?" He paused and said
"In this case, why don't you go back to the mountain first, tell Shuiyue and your uncle Suru what happened, and ask them to come quickly?" Lu Xueqi hesitated for a moment and said: "Then if uncle Daoxuan comes back tonight, but
So what should we do?" Tian Buyi smiled lightly and did not speak immediately, but slowly stood up.
He is short and fat, and his appearance is not outstanding, but for some reason, he just stands so casually, but he has a power of his own, facing the wind awe-inspiring, and making people respect him.
"Practice all your life, why are you here?" Tian Buyi said in a low voice: "With a man's body, how can he be timid in battle?" Lu Xueqi also quietly stood up behind him. All along, in her eyes, Tian Buyi was not only the person he once was.
Apart from her mentor, there seemed to be nothing worthy of her attention, but at this moment, she truly admired this senior uncle.
She gritted her teeth and said loudly: "Uncle Tian, you have just escaped from trouble and still need to sit down and rest. I will protect you tonight. Early tomorrow morning, I will rush back to Qingyun and inform my mentor and Uncle Suru if they go down the mountain."
If Uncle Daoxuan really comes back tonight..." Tian Buyi was a little surprised. Hearing this, he glanced at Lu Xueqi and said, "How?" Lu Xueqi smiled slightly, her face looking pretty in the faint night wind.
, said: "Among the disciples of Qingyun, you are not the only one who can regard death as if you are going home." Tian Buyi looked at Lu Xueqi for a long time, high-fived and said with a smile: "Well said, well said, a good statement of treating death as if you are going home." Lu Xueqi smiled lightly and said:
"Uncle Tian, you'd better sit down and adjust your breathing quickly." Tian Buyi didn't say much. He just nodded and sat back on the moss-covered stone steps. He closed his eyes and Lu Xueqi looked around.
Seeing that the night is cold and windy, not to mention human figures, even ghost figures seem to be hard to find.
The night is dark, who knows what kind of day tomorrow will be?
She didn't want to think too much, so she sat down next to Tian Buyi and closed her eyes.
I don't know how long she sat like this, but Lu Xueqi's mood gradually became clearer. Although she didn't open her eyes, the breath in her body was flowing, and she seemed to be able to feel the plants and trees far and near outside her, as if she was witnessing them with her own eyes.
She felt quite comforted in her heart. These days, she was often in trouble and suffered from lovesickness, but her practice seemed to have made progress and was not wasted. However, she soon discovered that although she was spiritually aware,
For some reason, Tian Buyi, who has been sitting next to him, seems to have no effect on his spiritual sense. He can't even detect his supposed heartbeat.
Lu Xueqi immediately felt respect for Tian Buyi. It seemed that all of these senior Qingyun elders really had amazing virtues.
She was thinking like this when she suddenly heard Tian Buyi's voice, saying: "Master Lu..." Lu Xueqi opened her eyes and said: "Master Tian, just call me Xueqi." Tian
Buyi looked at her, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, as if he had a lot of meaning. He nodded slowly and said, "Xueqi." Lu Xueqi smiled and said, "Yes, Master Tian, what's the matter?" Tian Buyi looked at her from
She moved away and didn't speak immediately. Lu Xueqi felt a little strange in her heart. She saw that Tian Buyi's eyes seemed to be drifting a little, looking at an unknown place. After a while, he suddenly said: "You used to be with that incompetent person under my sect."
Are we acquaintances with the seventh disciple?" Lu Xueqi was startled. For a moment, she, who had always been calm, felt at a loss. Even under her fair cheeks, two faint pink patches appeared inexplicably.
Holding back her faster heartbeat, Lu Xueqi managed to calm down, but her expression was still a bit awkward and shy, and she whispered: "Yes, Uncle Tian, you, why did you suddenly ask about this?" Tian
Buyi was expressionless and could not tell whether he was happy or angry. He seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with him. He said calmly: "I heard that over the years, you have been walking under the mountain and have a very good relationship with Lao Qi, because
Regarding Lao Qi's relationship, you were punished by your master several times, and even once, you refused the personal proposal of marriage from the owner of Fenxiang Valley in front of the public, in front of Senior Brother Daoxuan and your master?" Lu Xueqi was completely at this moment.
She couldn't figure out why Tian Buyi suddenly said these words, but her own cheeks were hot, and she was probably blushing. She was in a panic for some reason. It seemed that talking about this matter in front of Tian Buyi, who had always been a stranger, was worse than her.
Shui Yue, her always respected mentor, made her extremely flustered.
'...Yes,' Lu Xueqi became a little hesitant and stuttered for the first time. She was stunned for a long time before whispering: 'But I refused the marriage proposal not entirely because of him. I didn't like it myself, so...'
Tian Buyi suddenly stopped her words and asked directly: "Do you like my seventh child?" There was a buzz in Lu Xueqi's mind, and she felt her face was burning. She looked towards Tian Buyi and saw that Tian Buyi's eyes were bright.
, looking at her
Under that gaze, Lu Xueqi suddenly felt a surge of courage and sat up straight. After taking a deep breath, she looked directly at Tian Buyi and said loudly, crisply and cleanly:
The sound of 'yes' is like cutting ice and snow, crisp and sweet, without any hesitation, just like the clear gaze in her eyes, without any impurities.
Tian Buyi grinned, but he laughed loudly. He laughed unscrupulously, but he was sincerely happy.
Lu Xueqi felt shy when she heard him laugh, but unknowingly, she felt closer to this short and fat uncle.
When Tian Buyi's laughter gradually faded and he looked at Lu Xueqi again, Lu Xueqi smiled slightly, but then she felt an inexplicable sadness and whispered: "It's a pity that he is now... the teachers and commanders may not be able to tolerate him."
, How great would it be if he could return to Qingyun?" Tian Buyi rolled his eyes strangely, and said coldly: "What come back? I never said that I had driven this useless guy out." Lu Xueqi was startled.
I didn't understand what Tian Buyi meant for a moment, so I looked up at him.
Tian Buyi said calmly: "I know, aren't you just worried about your master?" Lu Xueqi lowered her head and said for a long time: "Master, she is also good for me, and she is not wrong. It is me who is wrong, I understand."
Tian Buyi suddenly let out a "poof" sound. This somewhat rude and rude behavior frightened Lu Xueqi, who raised her eyes to look at Tian Buyi.
Tian Buyi rolled his eyes and glanced in the direction of the distant Qingyun Mountain, and said: "I feel that your master is really becoming more and more like your Zhenyu Master's mother-in-law back then. She can't figure it out yet and still cares about everything."
She actually likes to care about the thoughts of her disciples. Could it be that she is just like her master, who is always confused?" Lu Xueqi said angrily, "Uncle Tian, why are you talking nonsense?" Tian Buyi glanced at Lu Xueqi, haha.
She laughed, then waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, after this matter is over, your affairs will be taken care of by me." Lu Xueqi was startled and said, "What?" Tian Buyi sneered and said, "Come to think of it,
You are not the only one, you also have a senior sister named Wenmin?" Lu Xueqi nodded and said: "Yes, senior sister Wenmin...she is actually somewhat close to senior brother Song Daren from Dazhu Peak." At this point
, she couldn’t help but smile a little bit.
Tian Buyi glared at her and said angrily: "Song Daren is also a wooden fish head." Lu Xueqi burst out laughing and said: "When our senior sister Wenmin talked to us in private about senior brother Song, she really said this all the time."
Tian Buyi shook his head. It seemed that he was quite dissatisfied with the honest and honest disciple. He wondered if he thought Song Daren had lost his face. Then he said: "Don't worry, I will go to Xiaozhu Peak in person in the future."
These two useless fellows under my sect proposed to your master in person. As soon as these words came out, Lu Xueqi's face turned red. This was something she had never done before. In desperation, she could only say: "Uncle Tian, what are you doing again?"
I'm really annoyed by teasing a disciple like this. Tian Buyi glanced at her and said, "I'm telling the truth. When did I tease you? Is it possible that you don't want to marry our seventh child?" Lu Xueqi said anxiously:
'No...ah, no, I didn't mean that, I meant...' Tian Buyi blinked a few times on his chubby face, and said seriously: 'Then what do you mean?' Lu Xueqi was suffocated for a moment, not knowing what to do.
What should I say? I don’t know if my face is anxious or shy. The fair skin is pink and there is a kind of thrilling beauty.
Tian Buyi smiled slightly and said: "Okay, I won't say anything more. I see that you are also a very smart woman. You should understand what I mean?" Lu Xueqi took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.
On her beautiful face, there was still a hint of rouge-like color, but her eyes were as clear and bright as before. After a moment, she nodded slowly but firmly and said, "Yes, disciple understands." Tian
Bu Yi stared at her and then asked: "Are you willing?" The pink on Lu Xueqi's cheeks seemed to be darker again, but this time, she said calmly, just like before:
