In the Yuqing Hall, Master Daoxuan was dressed in a dark green Taoist robe, with a long beard hanging down his chest, sitting on the main seat of the hall. On the seats on both sides sat the leaders of other Qingyun sects. Speaking of the battle at Qingyun Mountain ten years ago, the Qingyun Sect Seven
Three of the meridians have changed their positions. This scene is completely different from when Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu first came to Qingyun.
Except for the position of Cangsong Taoist at Longshou Peak, which was replaced by Qi Hao, the other two lines that changed were that Shang Zhengliang, the leader of Chaoyang Peak, was replaced by his disciple Chu Yuhong, and Tianyun Taoist, the leader of Luoxia Peak, was replaced by his own disciple Chu Yuhong.
Master Feiyun, the younger brother of Mei, took over. Among these three branches, except for Luoxia Peak, Feiyun Taoist and Daoxuan Zhenren, they are peers. They can also talk a few words, Longshou Peak and Chaoyang Peak.
The first seat is more embarrassing. Qi Hao from Longshou Peak is okay. After all, he is a leader among the younger generation and is relatively familiar with the teachers. As for Chu Yuhong from Chaoyang Peak, he has been sitting silently at the end, starting from the beginning.
The tail didn't speak.
And those leaders of the older generation, Dazhufengtian Buyi, Xiaozhufeng Shuiyue Master and Fenghuifeng Zeng Shuchang, have also not seen each other for a long time, and the several leaders who usually quarreled with them are no longer there, and there are more scenes in this hall.
A bit of harmony that wasn't there before.
Behind Master Shuiyue, Lu Xueqi and Wen Min stood. They had not seen each other for a while. Lu Xueqi's appearance was as beautiful as before, and her face was light and did not show any anger or anger. However, for some reason, there was a slight chill that was not there in the past.
.
As for Wen Min, he stood honestly behind Master Shuiyue, but his eyes were not so honest. From time to time, he would glance to the side, and he would probably see Song Daren standing behind Tian Buyi.
He couldn't help but smile, looking quite honest and honest. Wen Min gave him an angry look and turned away.
Next to Tian Buyi, his wife Suru also followed. At this moment, she summoned Tian Linger, who had come with Qi Hao, to her side. The mother and daughter talked in a low voice. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they seemed to have endless things to say.
of.
Along with Qi Hao, besides Tian Linger, was his junior brother Lin Jingyu. At this time, he was standing behind, together with Zeng Shushu, the son of Zeng Shuchang, the leader of Fenghui Peak. They had experienced the battle of Death Lake together.
It can be considered a friendship.
This Qingyun gathering was not an informal occasion, and everyone was relatively relaxed. Even the conversation between Master Daoxuan and Tian Buyi, Zeng Shuchang, Master Shuiyue and others was quite relaxed. Except for Shuiyue, who was always indifferent, most of the others had a smile on their faces.
Have a smile.
When Li Xun of Fenxiang Valley walked into the Yuqing Palace, what he saw in front of his eyes was such a scene. Just a moment later, his eyes flickered like flames on the frost woman.
Xiao Yicai stepped forward and said to Master Daoxuan: "Master, Senior Brother Li Xun and Li are here."
Master Daoxuan looked over with a smile. Li Xun walked up to Xiao Yicai, saluted Master Daoxuan, and said: "Li Xun, the younger generation of Fenxiang Valley, pays homage to Master Daoxuan."
Master Daoxuan smiled and said, "That's all, get up quickly."
Li Xun stood up in accordance with the words, and then bowed to the surrounding people and said: "Junior Li Xun, I have met all the senior masters and uncles of Qingyun."
Tian Buyi, Zeng Shuchang and others all nodded and signaled.
Master Daoxuan said: "Your master is okay. I haven't seen you for many years. I don't know how Brother Yun is doing. A few days ago, I heard that Lord Yun Gu suddenly went into seclusion. I was really worried for a while."
Xiao Yicai had now come to stand next to Master Daoxuan. When he heard this, he smiled and said: "Master doesn't know something. I just heard from Senior Brother Li that Senior Yun has been released from seclusion."
Master Daoxuan was slightly surprised, said "Ah" and said to Li Xun: "Really, my nephew?"
Li Xun said respectfully: "That's true. My master did leave seclusion a few days ago, and specially sent his disciples to visit the head of Daoxuan. There is also a letter, which he ordered me to forward to the real person." After saying that, he took it out of his arms.
He took out a sealed envelope and handed it to Master Daoxuan.
Master Daoxuan took the letter, pondered for a moment, tore open the seal, took out the thin letter paper, and read it carefully from beginning to end. Everyone else's eyes were on his face, but Master Daoxuan's expression was as usual.
No one could tell the ups and downs of his mood at the slightest change.
After a while, Master Daoxuan read the letter, slowly put the letter away, put it back into the envelope, caressed it in his hands for a moment, and put it on the coffee table at hand. Li Xun looked at Master Daoxuan carefully, but did not listen.
The person who is known as the number one righteous person today said something, and I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in my heart.
Master Daoxuan pondered for a long time and glanced at Master Shuiyue. Master Shuiyue seemed to be aware of it and frowned.
Master Daoxuan withdrew his gaze, coughed, and looked at Li Xun, who was still standing under his seat. A kind smile appeared on his face again, and he said with a smile: "My dear nephew, before you come to Qingyun, did Master Yun Gu tell you anything?"
What?"
Li Xun hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said: "My master once told me that Daoxuan Zhenren of Qingyun Sect is a giant in the righteous way today. The disciples came to Qingyun to pay homage to Zhenren and were about to have a good experience. Before returning to Fenxiang Valley, they must obey Zhenzhen's instructions in everything."
That’s it.”
Master Daoxuan was startled, then he laughed and said: "Master, you are really naughty, you just throw all the problems to me." After saying that, he paused, then nodded and said: "Well, your master is here.
The letter also said that within three days at most, he will lead the Fenxiang Valley disciples to come to the Middle Earth, most likely to my Qingyun Mountain first. Before that, you can stay in my Qingyun Mountain for a few days.
"
Li Xun was overjoyed and said quickly: "Yes, disciple, I obey."
Master Daoxuan nodded slightly, and then as if he remembered something again, he turned to Lu Xueqi, who was standing behind Master Shuiyue, and said, "Xueqi."
Lu Xueqi was surprised that Master Daoxuan would suddenly call her, and then stood up and saluted: "Uncle Master, the disciple is here."
Master Daoxuan smiled and said: "You and Senior Brother Li Xun of Fenxiang Valley are old acquaintances. I remember that you have met many times over the years. So, in the past few days, I would like to trouble you to take him around Qingyun Mountain.
, don’t lose your hospitality.”
Lu Xueqi frowned and turned to look at her master, Master Shuiyue, only to see Master Shuiyue also frowning and looking towards Master Daoxuan. Master Daoxuan looked back at her with a look of inquiry in his eyes.
.
Master Shuiyue sighed in his heart and said to Lu Xueqi calmly: "Since the master uncle has given orders, and you are relatively familiar with him, Qier, you might as well take him for a walk."
The corner of Lu Xueqi's mouth moved, and she slowly lowered her head. After a moment, she whispered: "Yes, I will obey my master's orders."
Li Xun was overjoyed in his heart, but still kept a smile on his face. He smiled at Lu Xueqi and said, "It's so helpful, junior sister."
Lu Xueqi nodded slightly, but there was no other expression on her face.
Master Daoxuan on the seat smiled and nodded. Next to him, Zeng Shuchang and Tian Buyi looked here and didn't say anything. However, Tian Buyi's wife Suru glanced here from the conversation with her daughter Tian Linger and frowned slightly.
.
※※※
The gathering broke up after a long time. Tian Buyi, his wife Suru, and his eldest disciple Song Daren walked out of the Yuqing Hall of Tongtian Peak. Song Daren followed his master out, but couldn't help but look back secretly.
This action fell into the eyes of Tian Linger, who was walking out to see off his father and mother, and suddenly burst into laughter.
Hearing laughter, Tian Buyi and Suru both turned around. Suru glanced at her daughter and said with a smile, "Why are you laughing?"
Tian Linger walked to her mother, took Suru's hand, and glanced at her elder brother. Song Daren had something in his heart and his face turned red immediately.
Tian Buyi snorted and said: "What's wrong with pretending to be a ghost?"
Tian Linger smiled and said: "Father, mother, you should hurry up and help senior brother go to Xiaozhu Peak to propose marriage to Master Shuiyue, otherwise he will really be anxious to death."
Tian Buyi was startled, but Suru was far smarter than her husband. She reacted earlier and smiled at Song Daren: "What, it turns out that you already have someone you like. Is he a disciple of my senior sister Shuiyue, Xiaozhufeng? Come, follow me.
Master, tell me, I will make the decision for you."
Song Daren opened his mouth to speak, but unexpectedly glanced at Tian Buyi, but couldn't say anything, so he had to lower his head. Suru was stunned and said: "What's wrong with you, Daren?"
Tian Linger smiled and said: "Eldest brother is not afraid that dad will scold him, so I will explain it for him..."
Song Daren was a little nervous and opened his mouth: "Little junior sister, you..."
Tian Linger ignored him and said to Suru: "The senior brother is interested in Senior Sister Wenmin, who is under Master Shuiyue."
Tian Buyi snorted again from the side, with a strange expression on his face, but Suru laughed out loud and said: "Good boy, I have some discernment. That girl Wen Min is indeed good, but I can't tell what she is thinking.
, I’m not good either, just like this..."
Song Daren felt anxious, raised his head and said: "She, she is the same..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw his master, his wife, and his junior sister all looking at him, with expressions on their faces that looked like a smile but not a smile. He could not continue to speak, so he had to lower his head again.
Suru shook her head and smiled bitterly, saying: "That's all, that's all, you have learned your master's vision, but why don't you learn from his thick skin..."
Tian Buyi suddenly coughed nearby and glared at this place, but Suru ignored him and said to Song Daren: "Don't worry, this matter is taken care of by my wife. As long as the girl is willing, I can always call you."
Just get your wish."
Song Daren was filled with joy and his face was extremely bright. Tian Buyi snorted coldly and said: "Look at your potential!"
Song Daren was startled, and quickly put away his smile and stood behind the master, but he still couldn't hide the smile on his face. Suru smiled and shook her head, pulled her daughter aside, and warned her for a while before returning.
, together with Tian Buyi and Song Daren, they flew up with their swords and returned to Dazhu Peak.
The journey passed through clouds and fog, and the wind was fast. After about half an hour, the three of them returned to Dazhu Peak.
Tian Buyi didn't say anything after he landed, and walked straight to Shoujing Hall. Suru turned to Song Daren and said, "You go and have a rest first. Just don't worry about that."
Song Daren couldn't help but giggled twice, saluted quickly, and then strode back.
Suru smiled and shook her head, and slowly walked back to the Shoujing Hall. She saw Tian Buyi sitting in the hall, so she walked over and said with a smile: "Hey, for the marriage of your proud eldest disciple, you have to propose marriage to me, Senior Sister Shuiyue.
Oh."
Tian Buyi snorted, turned around and said, "If you ask me to humble myself and plead with that senior sister of yours, I won't go."
Suru wasn't angry either, she just smiled and said, "Then you, the great disciple, will be a bachelor for the rest of your life, and I don't care."
Tian Buyi had a look of disdain on his face, looked up at the sky, and said, "I'm too lazy to care, since I'm not going to be a bachelor for the rest of my life!"
Suru couldn't help but burst out laughing again, reached out and hit Tian Buyi lightly, and said: "Really, you don't even look at how old you are, and you still look so old and dishonest!"
Tian Buyi blinked his eyes, but still looked up at the sky, as if his heart was as solid as stone, he would not shed tears when he saw the coffin, and he would not look back until he reached Nanshan Mountain.
Suru had no choice but to say: "Okay, let's be serious, it's not easy for your disciple to find someone you like. Besides, that girl Wenmin is really good, I like it too. You just need to go to Xiaozhu Peak to talk to me, Senior Sister Shuiyue.
, with me helping you, you will only get a few innocuous gossips from her at most. What’s the point? Since Wen Min also has some affection for our Daren, my senior sister will not be unhappy with you at all.
It will ruin your disciple’s life.”
Tian Buyi grimaced for a while and said angrily: "I knew the boss was worthless. Really, he actually fell in love with someone from Xiaozhufeng. What a shame for me at such an old age that I still have to accept the jealousy of that woman Shuiyue!"
"
Suru let out a "poof" and said: "I am also from Xiaozhufeng. Why did you fall in love with me in the first place? Considering how promising you are, you are now settling old scores with me."
Tian Buyi lost his words for a moment and was speechless. He said angrily: "That's it, that's it. Anyway, I have already accepted my fate. They are a bunch of worthless guys. I will just go to Xiaozhu Peak."
Suru then nodded and smiled, saying: "That's pretty much it."
After saying that, he put the matter aside and walked aside. After only taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped again. When he turned around, his beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he remembered something, and he said to Tian Buyi: "By the way,
When you saw Li Xun from Fenxiang Valley today, did you feel something was wrong later on?"
Tian Buyi said calmly: "You mean, the head brother asked Lu Xueqi from Xiaozhu Peak to receive him?"
Suru nodded and said, "You also see something is wrong?"
Tian Buyi snorted and said: "There's nothing wrong. If there was really a problem, your senior sister would have rejected her with cold words, but you see she didn't make a sound at all, which shows that at least the head senior brother has told her about this.
Your senior sister also agrees."
Suru was startled, then nodded and said: "Well, you are right, I haven't thought of this yet, but senior sister has always loved the disciple Lu Xueqi the most, how could..."
Tian Buyi said coldly: "Isn't that Li Xun so bad? In her eyes, I'm afraid he's much better than our disciples."
Suru said in surprise: "Okay, why did you get involved in this?"
The corner of Tian Buyi's mouth moved and he said casually: "That stormy night on Liubo Mountain in the East China Sea, I punished Lao Qi, but she wasn't..." When he said this, he suddenly woke up and kept silent, but for some reason, he shook his head,
Sigh.
Suru frowned and said, "The more you talk about it, the more strange it becomes. You even involve Xiao Fan. What's going on?"
Tian Buyi seemed to suddenly lose interest and lost his energy. He shook his head and said, "Don't ask."
Suru knew her husband's temper, so she kept silent. But this time it suddenly touched her mind. She couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's been ten years, but I don't know how Xiaofan is doing now?"
Tian Buyi was silent for a long time, stood up slowly, and said coldly: "Haven't you heard? He is now the deputy sect leader of the Ghost King Sect. He has changed his name to Gui Li and is known as the Blood Young Master. He is very powerful!"
Suru lowered her head, sat down slowly on the chair next to her, and whispered for a long time: "Well, when he first came to our door, he looked a little stupid, but..." She didn't say any more, and was silent for a long time.
, and said softly, "What a good child he was originally. He was very filial and respectful to you and me, but now...he has ended up being kicked out of the door!"
Anger flashed across Tian Buyi's face, and he suddenly said loudly: "If they want to expel them, they will expel them. I didn't say that I would expel this apprentice..."
Suru stood up immediately, interrupted her husband, and shouted: "It's not easy!"
Tian Buyi glanced at his wife, stopped talking, and said nothing, but the expression on his face was even more indignant. He suddenly stamped his foot, said "Hey" loudly, and strode into the back of the Shoujing Hall.
Suru looked at her husband's back silently, then sighed quietly, turned around, and looked outside.
Looking out from the gate of Shoujing Hall, the warm sunshine shines warmly on Dazhu Peak. In the distance, there is a faint kitchen located in a secluded place, with a corner of the eaves exposed behind the shadow of the trees.
The house is still there, but the people are gone.
Suru looked at it silently for a while, shook her head, turned around and walked into the back hall of Shoujing Hall.
※※※
Night is approaching, and there are layers of dark clouds in the sky, which are very low and make people breathless.
In this situation, there were no stars or moon, and at the foot of the barren mountain, there was only a bonfire burning on a hillside in the leeward direction.
Zhou Yixian and his party of three, together with the newly joined Gui Li and the monkey Xiao Hui, walked along the ancient road. They arrived at the foot of Kongsang Mountain that day. It was getting late, so they lit a fire in the leeward place and prepared to go out in the wild.
Sleeping in the open.
Although he has been away from home all year round and has long been accustomed to these things, once Zhou Yixian sat down, he still cried out in pain and kept beating his back with his hands, as if his waist was about to break due to fatigue. But others ignored him and shouted
After a while, it became boring and slowly stopped.
Xiao Huan squatted by the fire and put his hands on the fire to keep warm, while Taoist Wild Dog put down the ghost Li he was carrying along with many packages and walked to the fire. This was the real big gasp for air.
Among them, the monkey Xiao Hui was the most energetic. As soon as he landed on the ground, he looked around and jumped here and there.
After Xiao Huan decided to take Gui Li away, Gui Li remained so intoxicated for a long time. Occasionally he woke up, looked at the people around him, and turned a blind eye. He called Xiao Hui and opened the wine bag on his back.
I kept drinking, and after a while, I got drunk again. I was really drunk.
Along the way, in addition to the package, Taoist Wild Dog had another task of carrying Gui Li, and most of the monkey Xiao Hui would jump on Gui Li, making him even heavier. If he hadn't practiced Taoism,
There are days when ordinary people really can't stand it.
Taoist Taoist Wild Dog panted for a long time this time. He looked around and saw that Zhouxian Xian had been mumbling for a long time. He was probably tired this time and lay down beside him with his clothes on and fell asleep. Xiaohuan was lying not far from the fire.
The place.
As for the sleeping Gui Li, because Taoist Wild Dog intentionally or unintentionally placed him somewhere far away just now, the firelight was far away from that place and could only reflect a vague shadow, while the one beside him
The three-eyed monkey didn't know where it had gone at this time. It was probably looking for some wild fruit to eat. Xiao Hui often did this along the way.
The wild dog sat silently in front of the fire, and the surrounding gradually became quiet. The loud cry of Zhou Xian falling asleep slowly sounded, and Xiao Huan's body rose and fell slightly, and it seemed that he had also fallen asleep.
The firelight reflected on the wild dog's face, illuminating his expression with uncertainty, and also reflected the strange light flowing in his eyes.
After a while, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the tall and precipitous Kongsang Mountain in the dark night, with rocks as abrupt as the teeth and claws of evil spirits in the night. That place was originally the holy land of his Blood Refining Hall. But at this time, the Blood Refining Hall had already been wiped out.
Only a lonely ghost of him remains.
He slowly turned around, and saw the man, who had fallen asleep and drunk in the shadow of the night, lying motionless in the distance.
Taoist Wild Dog took a deep breath, subconsciously stretched his hand to his waist, and grasped his animal tooth magic weapon.
Then, he slowly stood up and walked towards Gui Li. The firelight illuminated his back, making his shadow longer and longer, gradually covering Gui Li lying on the ground.
The next moment, he stood in front of Gui Li. (To be continued)
