A baby's cry sounded in the small courtyard, but the cry was very weak. Bai finished cleaning the baby with magic and wrapped it in a quilt. He looked at the child carefully. When he was a father for the first time, the expression on Bai's face was extremely sad, because he knew that the child's vitality had passed away, and he was afraid that he would not live long.
"It's a daughter." Bai whispered to Yunniang.
"Bring it over and show it to me." Yun Niang said weakly.
Bai hesitated for a moment, he didn't want to show the child to Yunniang, so as not to make him sad. But seeing Yun Niang's expectant look, he couldn't bear to reject her after all.
Yun Niang has held the child, with the happiness and love of a first-time mother on her face: "I met your father when the pear blossoms are in full bloom, so you are called Bai Li, okay?"
She lowered her head and gently kissed the baby's cheek: "I hope you will be happy and safe in your life."
Immediately, she saw Yun Niang spit out something from her lips and put it into the mouth of the baby in her arms. She didn't swallow the Qianyelian liquid, but secretly hid it under her tongue.
The incident happened so quickly that Bai, who was beside him, didn't have time to stop her. The baby instinctively swallowed the liquid in her mouth. It was obvious to the naked eye that her pale complexion became ruddy, and her cry gradually became louder.
As for Yun Niang, it seemed that her wish had been fulfilled, and her complexion immediately turned gray, it seemed that she was just returning to the light.
"Yunniang, why are you so stupid!" Yunniang's passing was a foregone conclusion, Bai was so grief-stricken, she knelt down beside her, sobbing.
Yun Niang smiled tenderly. She raised her hand and touched her husband's face: "No mother would give up her child. Getting to know you is the best thing in my life, but I have to go ahead..."
Bai tightly grabbed Yun Niang's hand and shook his head weakly.
Yunniang kissed the child in her arms again, showing reluctance: "Bai, with you and Xiaoli, I have no regrets in my life, don't embarrass yourself too much. What my family has done... You are not worth it for them. Ruined your practice... Also, take care of Xiaoli..."
After speaking, Yun Niang finally exhausted her last strength and closed her beautiful and gentle eyes, but there was still a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.
a few days later.
Bai finally recovered slightly from the grief of losing his wife. Only then did Lu Heng know what happened that day.
Embrace the guilt.
Some time ago, Bai went out to find the auxiliary elixir needed for the sacrifice of Qianyelian. Yun Niang's parents and elder brother suddenly came to the door, claiming that since the matter between Yun Niang and Bai is a foregone conclusion, they are willing to admit Yun Niang and Bai's marriage for the sake of their children.
When she left her family and eloped with Bai, Yunniang never regretted it. But at midnight, she still misses her family.
Yun Niang was originally a boudoir girl, and she was overjoyed at the initiative of her close relatives. Without too much suspicion, I left them in a small courtyard. But never thought that they did not come with good intentions.
Yunniang's elder brother was in contact with a disciple of a sect, and accidentally learned that a demon clan had obtained a heavy treasure, and saw the appearance of the demon clan in the photo beads. He was pleasantly surprised to find that this monster was actually the poor boy who abducted his sister and eloped.
Over the years, Yunniang has been sending letters to her family, hoping to return to her hometown to save relatives and ease the relationship with her family. However, Yunniang's parents lost face in front of the prefect because of her escape from marriage, and always regarded her as a shame in the family.
They still know where Yun Niang is now. Her brother has always wanted to step into the path of immortality, but due to his qualifications, he was unable to join any sect. The moment he heard about it, he knew his chance was coming. He hit it off with the sect disciple, and after the sect disciple reported to the sect, he promised Yunniang's brother, saying that as long as he could cooperate to get the treasure, he would be accepted.
This is the parting of life and death that night.
That day, Bai Xun returned to the small courtyard with the medicinal materials and saw his wife with a happy face. Knowing that his wife was reconciled with his family, Bai was also very happy for her, because he also knew that this had always been a problem with Yun Niang. That night, Bai hosted a banquet to entertain Yunniang's family, but when she was relaxed, she was attacked by Yunniang's brother with a powerful magic weapon.
At the critical moment, it was Yunniang who blocked the attack with her body. Yun Niang, who was seriously injured, had fetal gas, and the fetus in her womb couldn't wait to be born. Outside the small courtyard was also surrounded by cultivators who came from nowhere, and then, that was what Lu Heng saw that day.
"I'm going to take Yun Niang's corpse to the Hui clan for burial. Let's go to the clan on another day." Holding a small group of snow rabbits in his arms, he saw Lu Heng looking at the snow rabbits in his arms, and explained another sentence : "The child of the demon clan will turn into its original form one day after birth."
After speaking, Bai bid farewell to the two of them and returned to the small courtyard to deal with follow-up matters.
Seeing Bai's emaciated back like a wandering soul, he thought about Min's corpse in the storage bag. Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh: "Do people and demons fall in love like this?"
"This has nothing to do with humans or demons. Greed, anger, and ignorance, and the three roots of evil, each lead to bitter fruit." Shi Kong was still calm, and Bai's experience did not leave a trace of waves in his eyes. .
Lu Heng looked at Shi Kong steadily, and couldn't help thinking, what happened to make his immobile face change color.
"Don't get distracted by these foreign things, it's not good for your practice."
"Cultivation and practice. Hey, Shi Kong, are you raising me as a son? I'm a few hundred years older than you, so you can't mess with your seniority." Lu Heng blinked and made a joke, thinking Swept away the dignified atmosphere in the air.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Lu Heng felt a pain in his forehead, only then did he realize that Shi Kong had actually flicked his forehead. This monk had such a serious expression on his face when he flicked his forehead. Lu Heng complained silently in his heart, but he only dared to make a begging expression on his face, and went to practice obediently.
Entering the demon clan land, the method is unexpectedly simple.
Bai gave Lu Heng two shriveled fruits: "This is the fruit of the Migu tree. If you eat it, you will not be fascinated by the miasma."
"Then, as long as they get this fruit, anyone can enter the demon clan land?" Lu Heng asked.
"This fruit of the Migu tree needs to be stimulated by demon energy. If the human race is not accompanied by the demon race, it cannot be used." Bai added, "And it needs to be demon energy that cultivates the right way, and those demons who follow the evil way will not work either. of."
Lu Heng nodded and tried to inject demonic energy into a fruit. I saw that the shriveled bark-like fruit suddenly became full, emerald green, and looked very appetizing. Lu Heng handed the fruit in his hand to Shi Kong, and did the same, activating another fruit.
The fruit of the Migu tree turned into a sweet liquid in the mouth. After swallowing it, Lu Heng felt that his eyes and ears seemed to be a lot clearer.
After the three demons ate all the fruits, they crossed the stop stone and walked towards the demon clan.
Turning around a lush forest, the eyes suddenly opened up. Unlike humans who like to build cities with stone, the towns of demons are built directly between trees. There were houses built on the ground and wooden houses hanging on the branches. Lu Heng even watched a door suddenly open on the ground, and then a thin monster jumped out of it.
Seeing the surprised look on Lu Heng's face, Bai finally showed his first smile in these days: "That's the golden rat clan, and their clan likes to live underground."
After speaking, Bai was stunned for a second, and said calmly, "When I told Yunniang about the customs of these monster clan, she was also very yearning..."
Lu Heng patted Bai on the shoulder, the pain of losing his wife, he could only slowly walk out by himself. Lu Heng looked at the chubby little snow bunny in his arms, thinking that with the company of such a cute child, Bai should be able to recover quickly.
"Let's live in Quelai City for the time being. The fox clan's territory is in Qingqiu, and I will find a fox clan friend to guide you." Bai cheered up and said.
A group of three stayed at an inn run by the Feather Bird Monster Race. Feathered bird monsters like to live on the tree. This inn is integrated with a towering ancient tree. The rooms are hung like bird's nests on the thick branches. This peculiar building has opened the eyes of Lu Heng from the modern society.
Lu Heng and Shi Kong still share a room. Before, it was because Lu Heng looked young, but now they are used to getting along in this way. Anyway, I was meditating and practicing at night, so I didn't have to worry about the lack of beds.
Night falls, and the moonlight is extraordinarily bright tonight.
Lu Heng was very curious, leaning against the window and looking at the scenery that was completely different from the human town. I saw that the demon clan below seemed to be rushing in one direction, and in that direction, the lights of various colors were dotted, and it looked like a neon sign in the modern world.
"Huh? It looks like something is going on." Lu Heng stretched out his upper body curiously and looked around.
"Tonight is the Moon Worship Festival of the Monster Race." Shi Kong took Lu Heng by the collar and pulled him back into the room. The room was quite high from the ground. With Lu Heng's half-hearted cultivation, he was afraid that he would fall if he fell. Blue nose and swollen face.
"Moon worship festival? I really want to go see it, can I not practice tonight?"
Seeing Lu Heng's bright eyes that were almost shining, Shi Kong nodded: "The poor monk will go with you."
The Moon Worship Festival is an important annual festival of the Yaozu. The residents of the entire Quelai City gathered on a huge open space by the lake. The dazzling lake water reflected the bright moon the size of a grinding disc, and the pure essence of the moon even made many demon clans unconsciously reveal part of their original shape.
In the center of the open space, a tall platform was erected. The beautiful woman on the stage dragged her long feathers and danced in a flurry of steps, her dancing posture was soft and graceful with a hint of vigor. Lu Heng, who had never seen this kind of dance, was a little stunned, but the dancer's expression was a little strange, his eyes were full of affection when he moved, and the whole person exuded endless spring love, and everyone who danced and watched was full of heart. stand up.
"This is a male demon." Shi Kong said.
What? It's actually a male demon! This remark shocked Lu Heng like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, but he immediately slowed down again, thinking about it is normal, the courtship dances of birds and birds are originally performed by males for females to watch.
Lu Heng quickly accepted the fact that he was watching this dance with pure appreciation anyway.
A dance. The surrounding atmosphere suddenly boiled.
Lu Heng saw a male demon as tall as an iron tower beside him, and he touched a flower that was as red as flames. On his fierce face, a disproportionately shy expression appeared. The girl goes.
The girl was slender and beautiful, and the two stood in a place of beauty and beast. Lu Heng originally thought that the girl was going to be frightened, because this tall male demon was so aggressive as to send flowers as if he was going to kill. Unexpectedly, the girl took the flower generously and said, "You idiot, finally got enlightened!"
Then the girl grabbed the tall male demon by the collar, forcing him to bend down and put a kiss on his lips. The demons around were cheering for the lovers, and the demon of good deeds took out a handful of petals and sprinkled them on top of their heads.
Such situations abound. This is probably the part where lovers confess to each other at the festival, Lu Heng thought.
A pink flower appeared under Lu Heng's nose, and the hand holding the flower was slender, and at first glance it was a beauty. Lu Heng looked up, and sure enough he saw a beautiful face.
When the beauty saw Lu Heng looking at him, she shyly threw a wink: "This little gentleman, does the slave family still suit your heart?"
"This girl, we don't know each other, how can you give such an important token at will..." Lu Heng was embarrassed and took a step back. He guessed that these flowers with the same shape should be the token of confession to the sweetheart on this festival.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, her posture was extremely bold, and Lu Heng blushed with laughter: "Which clan's baby are you, you sneaked out before you finished studying the clan. My sister told you that this pink moon The meaning of seeing a flower is different from that of the red moon-seeing flower. The red is eternal, and the pink is dewy love.”
Then the woman blinked again: "Xiao Langjun really suits me, how will my sister bring you to adulthood?"
Lu Heng was about to refuse, but he felt that the back of his neck was gently pinched, and a gentle and firm force pulled him back. Lu Heng couldn't help but take two steps back and bumped into the familiar chest.
"He's still young." Shi Kong bowed to the woman and took Lu Heng away from the place of right and wrong.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Lu Heng felt a strange guilty conscience. However, Shi Kong led Lu Heng to the vicinity of the high platform with a normal expression: "I heard that the last part of the Moon Worship Festival is of great benefit to the cultivation of the demon race. You can wait here."
As the night got darker, the bright moon had risen above everyone's heads. The interaction of those lovers also seemed to come to an end, the noisy atmosphere gradually quieted down, and everyone looked reverently in the direction of the high platform, as if waiting for an important ceremony.
The male demon who was dancing on the stage just now came up again, holding a bud-shaped magic weapon in his hand. After reciting a mysterious incantation, the male demon raised the magic weapon to the bright moon: "Please bless us from the moon god."
Immediately, the flower buds opened layer by layer, and a small crescent moon rose from it, getting higher and higher until it rose to the top of everyone's heads. I saw the crescent moon swirl around in the air a few times, and then suddenly flew in the direction of Lu Heng and Shi Kong.
Before Lu Heng could react, the crescent moon was divided into two parts, which submerged into his and Shikong's bodies respectively. Strange to say, after the new moon entered, Lu Heng didn't have any strange feeling. New Moon has already selected someone, and the surrounding monsters burst into cheers, rushing towards them enthusiastically.
On the high platform, the male demon shouted excitedly: "Bless this pair of lovers with deep love and righteousness, the Moon God will always protect you!"
A loving lover? What happened, Lu Heng was shocked. He saw that the surrounding monsters seemed to want to welcome him and Shi Kong to the stage, but before he could think about it, Lu Heng grabbed Shi Kong and rushed out of the crowd.
After getting rid of the overly enthusiastic demon clan, Lu Heng, who finally returned to the inn, found that he was still holding Shi Kong's hand tightly.
"You go back first, I have something to ask for Bai." Lu Heng shook off Shi Kong's hand and rushed into Bai's room without looking back.
Bai Zheng was guiding Bai Li by the window to absorb the moonlight, and was taken aback by Lu Heng's intruding voice: "What's wrong? So panicked?"
Lu Heng sat down at the table and poured a full glass of water, but he still felt dry. After drinking three cups in a row, he felt that the feeling of redness on his face and ears was much better, and then he talked about what just happened and listened in vain.
"What kind of weird thing is that crescent moon? It's too weird. At the beginning, I didn't feel anything. After a while, I felt that my whole body was going to burn. It wouldn't be some powerful evil method. Right?" Lu Heng had some lingering fears.
Bai instantly understood something, but he didn't know whether to break it or not. That Master Shikong looked like a pure-hearted person, and he was a monk. Bai, who realized the bitterness of love, didn't want Lu Heng to follow in his footsteps.
Bai thought for a while and said, "That's the blessing of the Moon God, not some kind of evil law. Every year on the Moon Festival, there will be two... people who are close to the Moon God's blessing. From now on, the two of you will practice together. At that time, it will do more with less.”
After getting Bai's answer, Lu Heng finally calmed down and returned to his room with confidence. Shi Kong was already meditating and practicing, and Lu Heng honestly changed back to his original form, and placed it on Shi Kong's shoulder.
It's just that Lu Heng is not stupid. The more he thinks about what happened just now, the more wrong he is. That male demon is clearly a lover with deep love and righteousness. Thinking of Bai's somewhat weird expression and the ambiguity that followed, Lu Heng figured out some key points. Eighty percent of the blessings from the Moon God are given to those who love each other.
Adore? Lu Heng couldn't help but think of the scenes when he got along with Shi Kong, and he found that he really had a different feeling about Shi Kong.
The unintentional approach of Shi Kong always made him a little nervous. And in the month that Shi Kong left, no matter what he did, he always thought about what would happen if Shi Kong was there. He even remembered the uncomfortable feeling in his heart that he had been ignored by him when he saw the scene of Linyang County Lord seducing Shi Kong in Prince Gong's mansion.
Lu Heng couldn't help laughing, he was really stupid, he had fallen in love with Shi Kong for a long time, but he didn't even notice it, and always thought that his dependence on him was just a fledgling plot.
Just thinking of Shi Kong's never-ending appearance, Lu Heng became depressed again. The first time he fell in love with someone, it seemed that this relationship was about to die. Shi Kong is a Buddhist practitioner, so how could he make him break the precepts for his own selfish desires?
"Your mind is quite complicated, but what troubles you?" Shi Kong said suddenly.
Lu Heng, who was immersed in his own mood, was taken aback. Then he crawled down from Shi Kong's shoulders and turned into a human form: "I think my current cultivation base is enough to cultivate alone. During the time you returned to the sect, I didn't do anything wrong."
Shi Kong looked at Lu Heng silently for a moment, until he saw that he was a little flustered, and then he said: "Alright, the path of cultivation, after all, depends on yourself."
Hearing Shi Kong's words, Lu Heng felt even more frustrated. For the first time, he had uninteresting thoughts about his practice.
"You're restless, it's better to rest tonight." Shi Kong said again.
Lu Heng nodded and went to bed with heavy steps. This night was destined to be a sleepless night. Lu Heng only felt that he had been dreaming all night. It was bizarre, and the amount of information seemed to burst his brain.
After finally breaking free from the mess, Lu Heng found that it was noon. This is the first time he has been so slack since he embarked on the path of cultivation. The strange thing is that Shi Kong, who has always been quite strict in practice, did not urge him to get up.
There was no one in the room. Lu Heng sniffed and smelled the residual Sanskrit sandalwood in the room. Sanskrit sandalwood is nothing special, only the eminent monks of Fanyin Temple can refine it, and the output is very small. The use of this sandalwood during cultivation can increase the chance of entering an epiphany.
Did Shi Kong use Sanskrit sandalwood to practice last night? No, Shi Kong said that he never resorted to external things in his cultivation. Thinking of another function of Sanskrit sandalwood, Lu Heng thought again. Maybe it's to help me sleep and drive away my dreams? It's impossible. This hard-to-find Sanskrit sandalwood is used to help me sleep. If I say it, I'm afraid that I will be hunted down by those cultivators.
Unable to figure out the joints, Lu Heng was too lazy to think about it. He looked in the mirror, looking at the long hair that was rolled in a mess because of tossing and turning last night, and fell into distress.
Bai's appearance rescued Lu Heng.
Seeing that Lu Heng looked like he had seen the savior, Bai had to put a soft cushion on the square table, put the white pear in his arms on it, and then picked up the comb in Lu Heng's hand, ready to comb his bun for him .
Before it even started, Shi Kong pushed open the door and came in. His eyes fell on Bai's hand holding the comb and stopped for a few seconds.
"Today, I won't bother you anymore." Lu Heng stared at the mirror, not daring to look at Shi Kong, for fear that he would see something wrong with him.
Shi Kong didn't say much, just walked to the square table and sat down, pouring himself a cup of tea. Seeing Shi Kong's appearance, Lu Heng felt a little depressed again. He was really fed up with his appearance of worrying about gains and losses. How could this relationship matter be so troublesome, and his mood was completely out of control.
The comb lightly fell on Lu Heng's hair, Bai was about to start, only to hear the little snow rabbit on the square table snort. Bai looked back and saw that Bai Li, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up for some reason, trying to find a familiar smell.
Bai Xin was surprised that his daughter had always slept deeply, and it was difficult to wake up even in a noisy place if she hadn't slept for two hours. I just fell asleep today, why did I wake up? But Bai didn't want to think too much, said sorry to Lu Heng, put down his comb and walked over to coax his child.
Lu Heng looked at the still messy hair in the mirror, and could only turn to Shi Kong for help: "Shi Kong, I still have to trouble you."
Shi Kong put down the teacup in his hand and picked up the comb just like every morning. It's just that Lu Heng felt that the force that fell regularly, not only fell on his hair, but also seemed to fall into his heart.
After Lu Heng combed his hair, Bai also coaxed the child. That's the only way to get down to business.
Bai said: "My friend from the fox clan sent a message and said that today was just a trip to the Hui clan."
"What about you?" Seeing Bai, Lu Heng seemed to want to say goodbye.
"I'm going to take Yunniang back to the Rabbit Clan, and then I'll stay in the Clan to focus on raising Xiaoli. You can come to the Clan to find me when the matter is over."
no party last forever.
After introducing the fox clan friends to Lu Heng and the two, Bai embarked on a journey to the clan alone. The passing wind swept past, and the white clothes were blown away. It was only then that Lu Heng realized that Bai was already in shape, and the clothes that were originally fitted were extremely large now hanging on him.
Thinking back to the energetic youth when he first met Bai, Lu Heng couldn't help but feel lost. This love is a word, whether it is a blessing or a curse for people and demons.
"It's time for me to leave."
Lu Heng heard what Shi Kong said, and then felt his hand fall into the warm palm.
"I'm not a child anymore, no, you don't have to hold me." Lu Heng pulled out his hand, feeling a little hot on his face.
Qingqiu Mountain. Headed by the nine-tailed fox king, it is the place where all the fox tribes live. Bai's fox clan friend introduced them to the fox clan elder.
After listening to Lu Heng's story about Min, the old man frowned and looked rather solemn: "This Min is a big monster in the clan, and the old man can't decide his affairs. He needs to wait for the fox king to leave the customs."
"When will the fox king go out?" Lu Heng asked.
"It should be in these few days, the two of you will stay in our clan for a few days. When the fox king leaves the customs, the old man will report the matter immediately." The clan elder said.
Lu Heng and the two had to stay in this Qingqiu for the time being. Qingqiu's folk customs have always been warm and unrestrained, and the fox girls who come and go are very cool. Although Lu Heng came from a modern society, he was almost used to the layered layers of clothes in this world. All of a sudden, seeing this dress that is similar to the height of summer in modern society, he couldn't help but dare not look directly.
Lu Heng couldn't help but glanced at Shi Kong beside him, and looked forward without escaping.
"Aren't monks who pay attention to see no evil?" Lu Heng angrily tugged at the monk's robe.
Shi Kong turned his head to the side, looking a little puzzled. Seeing this, Lu Heng made a more subtle gesture compared to those beautiful and unrestrained fox girls.
"The red face is withered and the skin looks like it." Shi Kong said, "Your Dao heart is unstable, and you need to step up your tempering."
Lu Heng was choked to death by Shi Kong's words, so he had to imitate Shi Kong's immobile appearance, and regarded those fox girls as grass and clouds on the side of the road. After a while, I found that it really had some effect.
The two people who practiced wholeheartedly, a few days passed in a blink of an eye.
The fox king leaves.
The old Ruyu introduced the Nine-Tailed Fox King to Lu Heng and the others. The place where the fox king practiced, at the source of the British water. The valley is rich in water veins, and under the sunlight, the water vapor rises into the sky, making it look like a misty mist, which is quite a fairyland.
I saw a woman in a bright red dress coming out of the cave in this ink-smeared valley. This fox king's eyebrows are stronger than ordinary women, with a pair of phoenix eyes, his eyes are like lacquer, there is no trace of charm, and his whole body is full of heroic and sassy.
The clan veteran Lu Heng and the two introduced them to the fox king. The fox king listened and waved his hand to order the clan elder to retreat.
As soon as the elder of the clan exited the valley, the arrogant fox king in front of him actually bowed respectfully to Lu Heng: "The king has come to Qingqiu this time, but something important happened?"
No wonder the fox king asks like this, the current king of the demon clan is a complete cultivator, and has always been a dragon without seeing the end. If there is no major event, it will never appear. This also leads to the fact that among the demon clan, except for the kings of various clans, almost no demon has seen the face of the demon king.
But Lu Heng was so shocked by the fox king's gift that his soul almost flew out of the sky. king? She's calling me, what's the situation? Lu Heng couldn't help but grab Shi Kong's arm, feeling a little terrified.
"Let's listen to what she has to say." Shikong said.
Seeing that Lu Heng didn't make a sound for a long time, the fox king raised his head, only to realize that something was wrong with the demon king in front of him.
"Wang, what's wrong with your cultivation? How can you be such a young man?" The Fox King looked puzzled.
I remembered the customs of the monster clan that Bai said listened to with him before parting, as well as some things mentioned in the inheritance. This demon clan has always been frank and straightforward, and there is not much intrigue. The kings of all clans are also dedicated to the affairs of the clan, so Lu Heng is not too defensive against the fox king. Besides, at the worst, there is also the release of the air. He has a profound cultivation base, and it is not a problem to protect himself.
Thinking of this, Lu Heng stopped hiding and told the Fox King about his current situation.
After listening to Lu Heng, the fox king, after asking for his permission, penetrated his consciousness into Lu Heng's body and checked his condition carefully.
"This demon pill has suffered such heavy damage, which may be related to your amnesia." Fox King couldn't figure it out, "I'm not good at this, you can recruit that and diagnose it for you. ."
Seeing that Lu Heng lost his memory, the fox king introduced himself again. Her name was Xi, and she was a five thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox.
Later, Lu Heng explained his intentions this time.
"Is there a Bi Zong fox named Min in the fox clan?"
"Min, I haven't seen that bastard for a long time, and I don't know if he is hiding in that human town to play in the world." Speaking of Min, Xi felt a bit of a headache. Obviously talented, he has cultivated into a great demon in hundreds of years, but he does not focus on cultivation.
"Min, he has fallen." Lu Heng finally said these somewhat cruel words. There has always been a deep relationship between the same clan of the demon clan.
"What!" Xi accidentally smashed the teacup in his hand.
"How is that possible! He was killed by a cultivator? I will definitely kill him! Even their sect has to pay the price!" Xi was frightened, lost the air of the fox king, and cursed incessantly.
When Xi's mood calmed down a little, Lu Heng had a chance to tell the story of the matter.
Just listen. Xi was also silent for a while, and finally sighed: "I also know what happened to Min and that girl back then. When he almost fell into a demon, I was the one who brought him back to the clan."
"After so many years, I thought he had let go. Unexpectedly, he still didn't give up looking for the girl's reincarnation. Too persistent, not a good deed." Xi murmured again, "The word love..."
Looking at Xi's expression, it seems to have evoked some memories. After a while, she laughed at herself again, and came back to her senses: "Is Min's corpse kept by you?"
Lu Heng said: "At that time, he said that his vitality was cut off, and he gave me the demon pill, only to bring his bones back to the clan."
"The vitality has been cut off?" Xi raised his eyebrows, "I'm afraid he has lost the will to survive. This unsatisfactory guy, it's amazing to practice from scratch!"
Seeing that the hot-tempered Fox King seemed to be angry again, Lu Heng quickly asked, "How will Min's bones be buried?"
"The bones of the fallen monsters need to be buried in the forbidden area. Only the demon king can enter the forbidden area. It happens that you are here. Let's go to the forbidden area tomorrow." Xi added, "The forbidden area has been passed down for thousands of years. I don't know the mystery, but maybe there will be a chance to solve your current situation."
Now that he had decided to go to the forbidden area of the demon clan on the second day, Lu Heng thought about leaving, so he decided to take a good look at this Qingqiu.
"This Qingqiu style is quite interesting, I'll go out for a walk." Lu Heng said to Shi Kong, who was preparing to practice.
"The poor monk will go with you."
"No, no, I'll just take a look and come back." After that, Lu Heng rushed out of the room without waiting for Shi Kong to answer.
At sunset on the west mountain, the golden and red sunset light renders Qingqiu City like a picture scroll. Lu Heng let out a long sigh of relief, admitting that he had indeed been hiding from the air a bit these past few days. After understanding his own mind, he has been in a tangle, worrying about gains and losses.
Lu Heng can see that Shi Kong treats him differently from others. This difference makes Lu Heng feel a little delusional sometimes, wondering if Shi Kong is also interested in himself. But putting this emotional matter on Shi Kong's body made Lu Heng feel that it was a blasphemy.
In his troubles, a banner with the word "wine" broke into Lu Heng's sight.
How to solve the worries, only Du Kang. Lu Heng immediately decided to go in for a drink.
Xu Shicai was about to close the evening, the tavern was very deserted, Lu Heng picked up a table at random and sat down.
The owner of the tavern is a banshee, graceful and graceful. It's just that face, seems to have seen it somewhere.
"This little man, we meet again." The proprietress recognized Lu Henglai first.
"You are?" Lu Heng still didn't remember.
"Oh, Xiao Langjun is really a noble person who forgets things, and the slave family is very sad." The proprietress blinked, "Moon worship festival."
It turned out that it was the banshee who gave him flowers that night, and Lu Heng was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, there are too many things that happened in the past few days, I can't remember it for a while."
The banshee smiled unconcernedly: "Meeting is fate, not to mention that you and I have met twice by chance. The slave's name is Hongjiao."
Although this red robe seems to be frivolous, in fact, her eyes are clear and her temperament is bright, and Lu Heng also informed her of the taboo. It is the custom of the demon clan, after knowing the name taboo, they are friends.
The red jacket also changed the sour way of speaking, and became more generous. She brought out two jars of wine from the back kitchen: "Today you have a good time, the fox fairy who just came out of the cellar is drunk, and my sister invites you to drink it."
The two were relatively speechless and drank silently. The red robe was quite understanding, and it seemed that Lu Heng was very preoccupied. Lu Heng didn't speak, so she didn't bother, just accompanied Lu Heng to drink cup after cup.
When he was slightly drunk, Lu Heng finally couldn't hold back: "It's good to hear me talk about troubles."
The red robe raised his glass and motioned for Lu Heng to continue.
Lu Heng briefly mentioned his acquaintance and getting along with Shi Kong, but he concealed his identity as a monk, and focused on his entanglement during the period after he discovered his heart.
"According to your description, the other party is not unintentional towards you. Since they have the same mind, tell the other party that there is nothing to worry about." The red jacket, who has always been straight, couldn't understand. From her point of view, it was a hit-and-miss thing if they were interested in each other.
"I'm afraid of mistaking his path of cultivation."
The red jacket suddenly realized: "Your sweetheart is the master who took you away that day?"
Lu Heng's face, which was a little hot because of the alcohol, instantly became red: "Yes, yes."
The red robe caressed the palms and laughed: "Not bad, my sister admires you very much, she is very courageous!"
Speaking of happiness, the red robe patted Lu Heng on the shoulder with a look of relief on his face. Seeing that she seemed to have fallen into some unknown emotion, Lu Heng had to wait quietly for her to calm down.
"Have you asked him what he thought?" The red robe poured himself another glass of wine, and finally calmed down a little.
Lu Heng smiled bitterly: "How dare I ask."
"Then why do you make decisions for him?" The red robe said bluntly, "If the master has no intention of you, then there is no such thing as a misunderstanding of his cultivation path. If he is also interested in you, will he be wrong in his cultivation for you? The road, only he can make a choice."
With one word to wake up the dreamer, the words of the red robe can be regarded as pulling Lu Heng out of the mess of the past few days.
After three rounds of drinking, Lu Heng felt a little drunk. As the night got darker, Lu Heng saw this, said goodbye to the red robe, and returned to the inn.
When entering the door, Lu Heng also performed a cleansing technique to remove the alcohol from his body.
After opening the door, Lu Heng saw that Shi Kong was still meditating with his legs crossed just like when he left.
Lu Heng moved lightly, for fear of disturbing Shi Kong. He just sat down with his legs crossed by the window and was about to start practicing when he heard Shi Kong ask.
"Have you ever had a bath?"
"Ah?" Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, not understanding what this meant.
"It's hard for you to be still in your heart, and the complex aura on your body can easily affect your state of mind." Shi Kong explained.
Lu Heng is very strange, although his technique is not good, he still has confidence in such a simple technique as cleansing. But after Shi Kong said that, Lu Heng lowered his head and sniffed the cuffs of his shirt carefully. There was indeed no alcohol smell. If he insisted, there seemed to be a trace of incense on his red jacket.
Lu Heng pinched the cleaning technique again and found that it was still the same. I don't know what this incense is made of, and the cleansing technique can't completely remove it.
"The scent doesn't seem to go away." Lu Heng said with a bitter face, "If you don't care, maybe it will dissipate tomorrow."
"You come with me." Shi Kong got up and went out.
Lu Heng followed behind Shi Kong and came to a valley outside the city. In this valley, there was a steaming spring hidden.
"The power of this spiritual spring should be able to wash away those breaths from your body."
Lu Heng reached out and probed the spring water, and found that the temperature was suitable, it was an excellent natural hot spring. He happily pulled off the hairpin and spread it out: "Didn't you stay with me for the past two days? How did you find such a good place? Did you go out for a walk just now?"
"Divine Consciousness Discovery."
Shi Kong's answer made Lu Heng feel a little stupid, and he looked at this world of immortality from the eyes of ordinary people.
After committing stupidity, Lu Heng lowered his head and started to untie his belt. He comforted himself because he had been drinking. After taking off his robe, Lu Heng thought of something and stopped.
Lu Heng originally wanted to ask Shi Kong to avoid him, but seeing his calm expression, he thought that he was not a woman, so asking him to avoid him was a little bit condescending. Then he took off his underwear generously, and walked into the spiritual spring with only a pair of obscene pants on his body.
As soon as he entered this spiritual spring, Lu Heng felt that the spiritual energy seemed to penetrate into every pore of his body, and he snorted softly. Then he said excitedly: "Release the air, this spiritual spring seems to have a beneficial effect on cultivation, come down and try it."
Shi Kong, however, stared at Lu Heng for a moment, until Lu Heng moved a little uncomfortably, and then said, "No need, poor monks don't like to use foreign objects when they practice."
Afterwards, Shi Kong turned around and left, leaving only one sentence: "After bathing, don't delay, come back quickly to finish today's practice."
