The Zhou sisters were standing outside the door. Zhou Caiqin kept raising her hand to knock on the door. Both of them looked a little dazed, which was quite interesting.
Gu Pinglin looked back and saw Duan Qingming applying medicine on his arm, so he nodded to the two sisters and asked, "What do you want?"
"Huh?" Zhou Caige responded, "Master Gu, you are here too?"
This question was a bit confusing, and Gu Pinglin looked at the two of them.
The two sisters were very uncomfortable. Zhou Caige gently pushed her sister, and then Zhou Caiqin said, "Well, we are here to thank you two gentlemen for saving our lives. If you hadn't saved us last night..."
"It's just a small favor, don't worry about it," Gu Pinglin interrupted her, "but the two girls should not be so careless in the future."
The benefactor's teaching was well-intentioned, and the two sisters nodded with red faces.
Seeing that Duan Qingming had already arranged his robes, Gu Pinglin thought that there was nothing for him to do: "Senior Brother Duan will be out soon, please wait a moment, I will leave now."
Zhou Caige couldn't help but said: "You guys..."
Seeing her cautious look, Gu Pinglin stopped and said, "Miss, please go ahead and say it."
Zhou Caige blushed again and couldn't say anything. But Zhou Caiqin boldly asked: "You... um, do you know Senior Brother Yan and Senior Brother Feng from our Guangling Sect?"
She suddenly mentioned the Hanying Twin Swords, and Gu Pinglin was a little surprised. He thought for a moment and said, "We have met a few times."
"So you two know each other!" Seeing that he had no intention of discriminating against her, Zhou Caiqin was delighted at first, but then she stammered, "Then... are you also related in that way?"
Gu Pinglin was stunned.
"Oh, you two girls have good eyesight," Duan Qingming's voice suddenly sounded, attracting the attention of the two sisters. He stood behind Gu Pinglin and leaned his head out, "Do we look like we have that kind of relationship?"
"We are very close..." Zhou Caiqin blushed and waved her hands repeatedly, "Don't get me wrong, we won't laugh at you. Senior Brother Yan and his friends are very good. They often protect us secretly and have helped many people... Don't worry, we won't tell anyone!"
Duan Qingming also lowered his voice, with a sincere expression: "In that case, thank you very much, ladies."
Seeing that he was not angry, the two sisters looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "We are leaving now. If you need help in the future, you can go to Guangling Sect to find us."
"must."
Feeling that they had a common secret, the two sisters went back happily.
Duan Qingming sent them off, then turned around and looked at Gu Pinglin for a while. Seeing that he had no reaction, he couldn't help but wonder, "Hey, you're not angry?"
"Why should I be angry?" Gu Pinglin glanced at him, "I'm not the only one who's been misunderstood."
"Oh, seriously?" Duan Qingming suddenly approached him.
Gu Pinglin subconsciously took two steps back, then he reacted and became angry again: "Duan Qingming!"
"Yes," Duan Qingming looked at him with a smile, "You are really not angry."
"Forget it, I won't bother with you." Knowing that this person was doing it on purpose, Gu Pinglin simply waved his hand to let it go, slowly paced a few steps, and changed the subject, "Your new trick is not bad."
Duan Qingming followed his lead and asked, "What name do you think would be good?"
"Nothing is more appropriate than an eagle striking the moon's shadow."
"That's exactly what I want," Duan Qingming said, "Does this mean we are in sync?"
Gu Pinglin ignored his teasing and looked past him to the door: "With your Eagle-Strike-Moon Shadow move, if I were faster, Master Lu would not be able to escape so easily."
"What do you want to say?"
"I can't keep up with you anymore."
Silence.
That gaze stayed on his face, never leaving for a moment, but no one knew how long it would stay.
Gu Pinglin said, "If you want to ask the reason, forget it."
Duan Qingming didn't ask: "You said you had a plan."
"That's right," Gu Pinglin said calmly, "This time I'm going to Xianjiao to have a good time!
"You also said, it's just maybe," Duan Qingming said, "Nothing is impossible."
"You're right, nothing is impossible," Gu Pinglin smiled, retracted his gaze, looked at him and said, "Our business here is done, you get ready, we'll set off as soon as possible..." As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Duan Qingming's shoulder.
At the same time, the door slammed shut.
"A sneak attack." He chuckled.
In the blink of an eye, only a plain folding fan was left in his hand, and Duan Qingming, whose shoulders were grabbed, disappeared from the spot!
Gu Pinglin immediately turned around and looked.
"I knew you would hold a grudge," Duan Qingming appeared beside the table, "Luckily I was prepared..." Halfway through his words, white light emerged from the ground like chains, locking his feet tightly.
"You have the art of substitution, so don't I have any tricks up my sleeve?" Gu Pinglin threw away his folding fan calmly, "Of course, what I am most proficient in is the art of formation."
"What a coincidence," Duan Qingming sighed as he looked down at the light lock, "You knew I could use the substitute technique, and you deliberately attacked me to lure me into your trap."
Gu Pinglin sneered: "Just to let you know that if you tease me, you will have to bear the consequences."
"Let me guess, when did you set up the formation?" Duan Qingming didn't seem nervous at all. "It was after you applied the skin-growing ointment. It seems that anger didn't make you lose your composure. Or maybe you are just used to using anger to cover up your purpose?"
"Hmm?" Gu Pinglin realized something and was about to take action when the sword energy above his head burst out and enveloped him from top to bottom. Gu Pinglin rushed forward at high speed, but was a step late and almost collided with the sword. He immediately retreated back into the cage and stood still, looking up to check, "Sword prison?"
The chains on his body fell off by themselves, and Duan Qingming walked out calmly: "I'm ashamed, the only skill I can show off is swordsmanship."
Gu Pinglin guessed: "Did you use the talisman to change the direction?"
"Of course." Duan Qingming raised his left hand and picked up a talisman from the void. "Your formation has become my formation."
Gu Pinglin was silent for a moment: "When?"
"When we entered the door," Duan Qingming said, "just in case."
So early? Gu Pinglin sneered: "You really have a plan."
The small magic lasted only a short time, so Duan Qingming certainly would not miss the opportunity. He walked closer, looked at him through the sword cage, and said with a smile: "Now that you have fallen into my hands, if you are willing to admit defeat and beg for mercy quickly, I will let you go. What do you think, Gu Xiaojiu?"
"That's right, I'll admit defeat," Gu Pinglin clapped his hands gently, raised his eyes, and his eyes were burning with fire, "As long as you beg for mercy, I will let you go, how about it?"
Suddenly, the entire sword prison doubled in size, enveloping both of them.
Duan Qingming reacted very quickly and avoided the attack: "This..."
"Of course this is not your sword prison," Gu Pinglin took over for him, and at the same time he stepped forward and raised his palm to cut towards his neck, "You can use talismans to change your position, and so can I. We are both sword cultivators, so what's so difficult about a mere sword prison?"
"Yes, you actually fooled me," Duan Qingming leaned back to avoid the attack and said with a smile, "You are really thoughtful."
"When dealing with someone who is interested, you should be careful."
"But you are also trapped in this formation."
"If not, how could you be fooled?"
"You're really willing to use yourself as bait." Duan Qingming's eyes fixed, he stopped avoiding him and went straight for the acupoint on his waist. "Since you led me in, how could I let you go?"
"snort!"
Just as Gu Pinglin expected, Duan Qingming did not use his cultivation to suppress, but controlled his true Qi within a fair range. The two men showed their magical powers, using sword skills, magic, and fists at the same time. With the true Qi surging, the sword prison collapsed in a short while.
The two men tacitly avoided tables, chairs and other objects, no longer using magic, and only used simple moves, but still fought fiercely.
Finally, the two of them grabbed each other's wrists at the same time. Although they didn't use any brutal force, they cut off each other's true energy. Even so, the collision of legs and feet continued. After about a cup of tea, the two of them finally calmed down.
Duan Qingming leaned his back against the wall, his right hand clasping Gu Pinglin's left wrist. Gu Pinglin's left shoulder was pressing diagonally against his right shoulder, and his right hand was also pressing his left wrist against the other wall. The two pairs of legs were pressing each other, and the two men were stacked in the corner, completely unable to move.
"Let go."
"Count one, two, three, and release them at the same time."
Gu Pinglin said without hesitation: "One, two, three, go ahead."
"It's difficult," Duan Qingming tilted his head and looked at his profile. "Don't you think it's inappropriate for us to be so close?"
Gu Pinglin was not fooled at all: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in men."
"Really?" Qingyue's voice was full of interest. "Since you are also familiar with medical theory, you should know that a man's interests may not be determined by himself."
Gu Pinglin almost choked when he suddenly felt a damp heat on his earlobe. The strength in his hand loosened immediately, and Duan Qingming took advantage of the situation to break free and bully him again. Fortunately, Gu Pinglin did not forget to retract his hand and escaped. He finally responded in time. Their palms collided and they both took a few steps back.
"Duan Qingming!"
"I'm sorry, if we don't do this, I'm afraid we won't get any results until dark."
That was not wrong. Gu Pinglin had a cold face and raised his sleeve to wipe his earlobe.
He really didn't care about doing this kind of thing, and in comparison, he still lost.
Realizing this, Gu Pinglin suddenly felt the familiar suffocation he hadn't felt for a long time, and sneered, "How dare you, a great Duan Qingming, say this?"
"Even the beloved disciple of the master can launch a sneak attack, so why should I, Duan Qingming, be embarrassed?" Duan Qingming sat down at the table. "I'm not the only one who has been misunderstood, but you seem to mind it more."
"I just hate those shady tactics," Gu Pinglin put down his hand, "Stop talking nonsense, it's time to get going."
Duan Qingming did not hesitate to spend his money on renting two of the most expensive cranes in a poultry farm specially for raising mounts in a large sect like Feijian Palace. Having a mount might not save time, but it definitely saved effort. The two of them rode on the cranes and arrived at Fenglin Town five days later.
Fenglin Town is called a town, but it is actually a small city. It is located near the ancient city of Fenglin. It is a famous tourist destination in China. The area is 19 kilometers long and has a population of 15,000. It is one of the busiest towns in China. The area has a population of 1,500, and a population of 2,000.
Duan Qingming went to the Feijian Palace branch to return his mount, while Gu Pinglin planned to go to the local Lingxin Temple first to meet up with Xin Ji and the other two.
The streets in the town are wide, lined with sycamore trees, and pedestrians occasionally pass by, mostly in groups of three or five, not too deserted, nor too lively. Gu Pinglin walked slowly along the avenue, with the sycamore trees above his head and the cool breeze driving away the heat, feeling quite leisurely.
"People from Happy Day are here too?"
"It's really that woman. I heard that she's very good in bed..."
"I'm so ecstatic on the bed, I'm afraid you won't be able to get off."
…
The three Taoists talked in low voices as they walked, making obscene laughter.
Gu Pinglin paused.
Huanletian is not the most powerful sect in the Demon Realm, but it is undoubtedly the most erotic sect. It is famous for its dual cultivation technique and is best at the method of collecting and replenishing, and it has a complete range of techniques, including male and female secret techniques such as collecting yin to replenish yang and collecting yang to replenish yin, as well as the Longyang secret technique of absorbing yang and nourishing yang. Its sect leader is called "Happy Goddess", and the current one is a great inner alchemy cultivator. According to the time in the previous life, the previous sect leader died not long ago, and she has just taken office in recent years. Her cultivation should be at the seventh level of the Danxing realm.
However, the Queen of Joy actually came to the Fairy Sword in person
Gu Pinglin slowed down his pace and fell behind the three people. Sure enough, he heard one of them say, "Empress Huanxi has come. Could it be that she is here for Gu Lin's vision?"
"You all saw it on the night of the fifteenth, the purple air rising into the sky... There must be something mysterious in the ancient forest. Many people have already gone in. Why don't we try our luck?"
"No, we are not strong enough to go."
"There is a way. We just need to follow those overhauls..."
…
Strange phenomenon in the ancient forest? It seems that the mechanism has been activated, and the cave of good fortune will soon be revealed.
"Time waits for no one." Gu Pinglin muttered to himself and quickened his pace.
Someone suddenly asked, "Doesn't Huanletian have a branch temple in Fenglin Town? What is that woman doing with the Seven Realms Coffin at the Haiyun Country Inn?"
Gu Pinglin stopped suddenly.
There are six realms in the world, including gods, demons, humans and ghosts. The Seven Realms Coffin does not belong to any of them. It is a rare object that can avoid the eyes and ears of the Heavenly Dao. Legend has it that when a person dies, if his body is placed in the Seven Realms Coffin and a soul-sending bead is used, the body and the soul will not decay for a hundred years, and they will not disperse for a hundred years. The Seven Realms Coffin is one of the secret treasures of Huanletian, and it was the same in the previous life.
"Looking for a lover?"
"You're bringing a dead person to find a lover?"
…
Gu Pinglin stood by the road for a while, then turned around and walked towards the main road of Fenglin.
Haiyun Country Inn belongs to the "Haiyun Country" of Hai City. Hai City belongs to the middle power. The locations of all inns and shops are quite special. They are on the main road at the junction of the north and the south. Both magic cultivators and Taoist cultivators can enter and exit. This place does not have as many rules as the south, and a great cultivator is invited to take charge. It is safer than the north, and it is convenient for doing some shady transactions. Therefore, it is loved by many cultivators.
The Haiyun Country Inn is famous, and the surrounding shops are busier than other places. There is a plaque hanging on the tall gate of the inn, and there are many monks outside the gate watching the fun. A pink flower couch is parked in the open space in the middle. Two rows of men and women stand on the left and right of the flower couch, some wearing pink clothes, some wearing blue shirts, and some wearing white robes. Some hold folding fans, and some hold musical instruments. The men are all handsome and outstanding, and the women are also beautiful. They all look very young, and they are really happy and young. Under the watchful eyes of the public, those men and women look at ease and smile frequently. It is hard to imagine that they are from the famous "whorehouse".
Gu Pinglin walked straight through the crowd and into the gatehouse.
The Sword Demon Yan Sen and a woman in white stood face to face in the wide hall, while the other guests and waiters stood far away.
Gu Pinglin's attention was attracted by the coffin lying between the two of them.
It was a blue, crystal clear coffin, and inside the coffin was a person in a brocade robe lying vaguely.
Seven Realms Coffin.
The strange feeling was too strong. Gu Pinglin lost his mind for a moment and suddenly walked quickly towards the coffin, completely ignoring the reactions of others.
The closer, the more familiar.
"I really want to destroy you and this coffin together."
“I’m reluctant.”
…
Who is it? Who is speaking? And to whom
His mind seemed to be drawn, Gu Pinglin stared at the coffin in front of him, tried his best to steady his trembling hands, and slowly closed the coffin lid.
Why does the Seven Realms Coffin, which I have never seen before, seem so familiar
"What kind of world will you enter when you fly into the sky, and what kind of people will you meet...Are you curious?"
"I think it must be boring there without you."
"The world without you is so lonely." A clean hand rested on the jade pillow beside her face, as if it was also stained with a faint blue. "It's really... terribly lonely."
…
Gu Pinglin suddenly withdrew his hand.
"Sir, are you here to find the Sword Demon, or to find me?" A slender hand stretched out from the side, carrying a special fragrance, and was about to touch the handsome face.
