"ah.."
Dan Chenzi, who had just walked out, heard the woman's unique scream, which was very urgent and disappeared quickly.
That voice was Qing Huizi who had just crossed paths with him. He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Zhenren Tonghai's residence.
Putting the food box on the spot, Dan Chenzi kicked off his toes and flew a hundred meters across the air, passing the flower beds and high walls, and settled in the yard.
"Senior Brother Tonghai, Qing Huizi..." Dan Chenzi stood on the spot, looking towards the room, and his spiritual power turned into a tide, sweeping through the entire residence silently.
There were two people in the room... The mental fluctuations were stable... Dan Chenzi made a judgment, breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly: "I just heard Junior Sister Qing Huizi's scream, what happened? "
The door opened, and Qing Huizi, who had a plump figure that did not match his age, came out with a calm expression and a calm tone: "It's okay."
Dan Chenzi looked at her and frowned slightly.
Why don't you explain something
Qing Huizi's face was expressionless.
Master Tonghai came out from behind her and nodded slightly towards Dan Chenzi: "We are talking about Dan Yunzi."
After that, I stopped explaining.
Dan Chenzi stared at Qing Huizi and examined her for a moment: "Junior sister Qing Huizi, are you really okay?"
Qing Huizi nodded expressionlessly.
Dan Chenzi then smiled and said: "Okay, I can help with this matter and go to the headmaster to intercede. After all, I also feel that the headmaster's order is not suitable."
After looking at the calm master and apprentice for the last time, Dan Chenzi jumped up and climbed over the wall. He couldn't help but look back.
Qing Huizi and Tonghai Zhenren stood there silently, with expressionless faces and ghostly eyes, like ghosts living in the old house.
... ..
Dan Chenzi carried the food box to the mountainside, walked through the bushy path, and saw the familiar yellow mud house.
The old Taoist priest was lying on a mottled old bamboo chair with a bottle of Maotai in his hand, looking leisurely at the darkening sky.
Not far from him, lying unconscious Li Peiyun.
"What's going on?" Dan Chenzi put down the food box and looked at Li Peiyun in surprise.
"Teach him what the sword of intention is." The old Taoist priest stood up slowly and walked slowly towards the yellow mud house. His pace was slow, like an old man in his twilight years.
Dan Chenzi squatted aside and looked at it for a moment. It wasn't until the old man came out holding a small wooden table that he asked, "When will he wake up?"
"It will take a while."
"Okay!" Dan Chenzi excitedly rolled up his sleeves, his eyes shining: "Old man, let's play another overtime match."
A few minutes later, Li Peiyun woke up faintly, with a blank look in his eyes like "Three Philosophical Questions".
Then he smelled the aroma of the food and saw two Taoist priests, an old one and a young one, sitting around a small wooden table, drinking wine and eating vegetables from small cups.
"Come for dinner when you wake up. I've brought food for three people." Dan Chenzi waved enthusiastically.
Hiss... Li Peiyun sat up and suddenly felt pain all over his body, as if he had been beaten crazily in his sleep.
He looked at the old Taoist priest with some doubts. His soul was shaken. It was understandable that he had a headache when he woke up, but it was unreasonable to feel pain all over his body.
What's even more unreasonable is that a mere old sweeping Taoist priest from the Shangqing sect has such a level of cultivation.
"Killing me in an instant in the field I am best at is definitely not something that half-step Ji Dao can do. I never expected that there is a Ji Dao hidden in the Taoist sect."
"Weren't all the masters of the Taoist sect killed by the evil Taoist back then... Well, he should have risen after the evil Taoist... Let's go back to Li Xianyu to find out the details of this old Taoist priest."
"I was instantly killed by the Buddha's head with one move, and now I am instantly killed by the old Taoist priest with one move. Bah, I didn't read the almanac when I went out."
Feeling turbulent in his heart, but calm on the surface, he walked over silently, sat on a small bench prepared for him, and glanced at the food, which was mainly vegetables and supplemented by diced meat.
Li Peiyun took out his wallet and took out the high-quality cans he had stored, such as caviar, cod, beef, etc.
Dan Chenzi's eyes lit up: "You have to eat meat when you drink."
Li Peiyun picked up the rice and took a bite: "Can Taoists eat meat?"
"You also know that it is a Taoist sect." Dan Chenzi took a piece of beef, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed: "We are not a Buddhist sect. We do not kill animals, do not drink alcohol, and do not eat meat."
"I remember Quanzhen couldn't eat meat."
"That is Quanzhen, not our Supreme Purity." Dan Chenzi said: "There are many schools of Taoism, and their purpose is nothing more than 12 words: pure heart and few desires, supreme forgetfulness of emotion, unity of heaven and man."
"Being stoic means that we should not be dominated by desires. The survival and reproduction of beasts completely follow the most instinctive desires, so they are animals, not humans."
"As the saying goes, deep love will last forever. Once a person is disturbed by feelings and moved by feelings, it will lead to a series of bad consequences. Therefore, one must be too forgetful of feelings."
"Heaven and man are one. We work at sunrise and rest at sunset. In short, this is the law of life."
"I'm not interested in listening to you preach about Taoism's philosophy, or rather, your own philosophy." Li Peiyun said with disdain in his flat tone.
"Eating meat, drinking wine, talking about mountains, this is the unity of nature and man." Dan Chenzi said: "Today's monks and Taoists are rooted in the world of mortals, and they are covered in the smell of copper. Or they are blinded by power and are greedy for the power in their hands. . People’s hearts are not as old as they used to be.”
"The pursuit of material and power is the most essential desire since the birth of human civilization." Li Peiyun retorted: "I don't think there is anything wrong with it."
"You are an ordinary person in the mortal world, so of course you don't think there is anything wrong." Dan Chenzi changed the topic: "What are your ideas?"
Li Peiyun thought for a while, combined with his rich historical knowledge, and concluded: "Force can solve everything."
We can talk about physics, but not about logic.
The founding emperors of all dynasties used force to solve everything.
Force is the basis of all development, and anything can be solved by resorting to force.
Just like the emperors in ancient times, only by holding military power can they intimidate all parties, implement the New Deal, break the educational monopoly, and allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
This is Li Peiyun’s philosophy.
"You were a tyrant in ancient times." Dan Chenzi curled his lips and turned to another matter:
"For some unknown reason, our headmaster suddenly ordered us to recall our fellow disciples who were traveling."
Li Qianyu is your concubine... He added silently in his heart.
"Maybe it's not peaceful outside recently." Li Peiyun thought of Baoze's current situation and the masters of that storm. When the current situation is turbulent, closing the door behind closed doors is a good way to protect oneself.
"Qing Huizi's brother, Dan Yunzi, has disappeared." Dan Chenzi said:
"I plan to ask Baoze about the situation. They have many channels and good information. They should be able to find clues."
Every Taoist priest who travels will be warned by his master to keep communication open in order to prevent loss of contact and to call or message for help in time when in danger.
If you can't be contacted for several days in a row, based on past experience, there are only two possibilities: you are in danger of being killed or imprisoned; or you break the rules and break the law and defect out of fear of crime and no longer have contact with the master.
"Speaking of Dan Yunzi, it's a typical example of cultivating one's strength but not cultivating one's heart, having too much obsession, not cultivating one's mind enough, not having a clear understanding of one's heart and having few desires, and being too supreme to forget one's feelings." Dan Chenzi said with a critical tone. Speaking of this classmate.
"What good will it do him to obtain the unparalleled fighting spirit? He will become stronger, become more visible, and more sought after by others. In the future, his descendants will be benefited from generation to generation..."
"Look, what a vulgar idea, isn't it just like an ordinary person's virtue?"
"He grew up in a Taoist temple. After practicing Taoism for so many years, has he practiced it like a dog?"
"If it were me, I wouldn't kill you for the unparalleled fighting spirit. That would be trouble."
"Dan Yunzi... He seems to have died in the island country." Li Peiyun listened for a long time and remembered why he felt that this person was familiar. It was because he heard Li Xianyu say it.
When they were soaking in the hot spring that day, Li Xianyu told him and the Blood Knight about his experience in the island country. When he mentioned this person, he gritted his teeth and scolded him for a long time.
At that time, Li Peiyun felt that the name Dan Yunzi was familiar, but later he remembered that it was the new successor of the Wushuang Fighting Spirit whom he had seen in Europe.
But he was just a nobody, so he forgot about it.
After returning to the island country, he forgot about this unknown guy again. Now when he heard Dan Chenzi talking about it, he remembered that this guy had died in the island country.
"What?!"
Dan Chenzi, who was spitting Xingzi, was stunned, looking at Li Peiyun with a dull face.
... ...
Patriarch's Hall, side room.
As night fell, the disciples returned to their dormitories for evening classes under the supervision of their teachers.
Except for the disciples responsible for patrolling, the huge Shangqing sect fell into relative silence.
With silent steps, Master Tonghai pushed open the door of the side room, making a slight "squeak" sound.
The moonlight was dim, and the side room was shrouded in deep darkness. A figure sat cross-legged on the futon, motionless, like a sculpture.
Master Tonghai lowered his voice: "I was not feeling well just now, and Qing Huizi happened to come to see me after dinner and discovered my abnormality. Fortunately, I assimilated her into one of my own in time, but the portion was a little less."
The figure was silent for a moment: "You can bring a copy over later."
At this time, a group of patrolling disciples walked past the side room. The room was silent for a moment. The patrolling disciples quickly left without noticing the two people in the side room.
Master Tonghai continued: "Then Dan Chenzi heard the sound and came... I don't know if he noticed anything unusual."
The figure was silent again, and after a long time, he breathed out: "Dan Chenzi..."
"My disciple really died on the island country?"
"There are no bones left." The shadow confirmed.
Master Tonghai suddenly clenched his fists, and his knuckles made a crisp sound.
... ... .
"He's dead. He was killed by Li Xianyu when he was in the island country." Li Peiyun took a sip of the fragrant liquor.
"What's going on... why did Dan Yunzi go to the island country? Why did Li Xianyu want to kill him? Isn't he still unwilling to let the two brothers go?" Dan Chenzi's face was heavy.
"Dan Yunzi went to the island country and joined the Tianjin Shrine, intending to use the power of the Tianjin Shrine to kill Li Xianyu and the Wushuang Fighting Spirit." Li Peiyun told Dan Chenzi what he had heard, and added: "That bitch will definitely retaliate. Both parties were originally If there is a conflict, it is normal for Dan Yunzi to cause trouble again and again and get killed."
This is not easy... Dan Yunzi died in the island country. He was Qing Huizi's only brother. As a result, the charming and plump little Taoist nun became a loner.
She would definitely be very sad and might seek revenge on Li Xianyu. Li Xianyu was not a bad person, but he fought all the way here and was decisive in killing. If he was offended, he would definitely destroy her.
They have been classmates for more than ten years and have grown up together. Seeing the situation of the brother and sister, Dan Chenzi was very sad.
He suddenly remembered that before Dan Yunzi came down the mountain, the old Taoist priest discussed the issue of Taoist companions with him. The old Taoist priest believed that Qing Huizi was not a suitable candidate for Taoist companions because he was entangled in karma.
It is indeed a matter of cause and effect!
While drinking in silence, Dan Chenzi was thinking about dealing with Dan Yunzi's matter and whether to report it. As a disciple of the Shangqing Sect, he had the responsibility and obligation to report this matter.
But thinking that if this happens, Qing Huizi will hate Li Xianyu to death. Having thoughts of revenge is like flying a moth into a flame and ruining your life.
"The unparalleled fighting spirit belongs to Li Xianyu. Dan Yunzi is too obsessed with it and can't let it go. This is his fault."
"The headmaster also had selfish motives and led the crowd to intercept Li Xianyu and prevent him from meeting the unparalleled fighting spirit. The Shangqing was also at fault."
"Li Xianyu had a bad attitude and humiliated Dan Yunzi in public, which made his obsession deepen and turned into hatred. He was also at fault, but he was not the main responsibility."
"Dan Yunzi traveled down the mountain and secretly went to the island country, hoping to use the help of Tianjin Shrine to eradicate Li Xianyu and Wushuang Fighting Spirit. Although they are all from the same sect, it is hard to say so, but they are indeed worthy of death."
"We cannot expect Li Xianyu to be a gentleman who repays evil with kindness."
Dan Chenzi sighed. He looked at the problem from an objective perspective, but the Shangqing Sect might not think so.
Killing one of my disciples, even if there are various reasons, is still a great hatred.
"Tell me about the island country in detail. I don't know much about it from what I read online." He didn't think about the bad questions and asked about the ones he was interested in instead.
Li Peiyun took what he saw and heard, down to the smallest details, and used it as conversation material at the wine table, and told Dan Chenzi.
"Li Xianyu said that the battle between the masters is still going on, and the poisonous tail of the island country is just one of the masters."
Dan Chenzi nodded slightly, finally understanding what was going on in Baoze's recent troubles and getting the answer.
"I suggest you go back to Europe to avoid the limelight. The ancient demon will most likely take revenge on you."
"I can't get revenge." Li Peiyun said in a nonchalant tone: "I have to admit that the protagonist of this battle is not me, but the master, the unparalleled fighting spirit, and Bao Ze. I am just a supporting role."
"Why are there so many words about supporting roles? Have you read the announcement from the official organization of the island country? In the battle to kill the ancient demon, you are not a supporting role at all, but a crucial protagonist. The description of you even More than Li Xianyu." Dan Chenzi reminded him.
Li Peiyun was stunned.
"You mastered the Sword of Qi and personally killed the ancient demon master in the island country. What will the other masters think when they see this announcement?" Dan Chenzi said in a deep voice.
Li Peiyun gradually froze, and his face slowly turned pale. After more than ten seconds, he gritted his teeth and said:
"At that time, Li Xianyu used the excuse that he was in poor condition and could not use the Qi Sword, so he gave me the credit for the beheading. Afterwards, he even publicized my achievements. I, I thought he wanted to please me... .”
Dan Chenzi sighed and shook his head, looking at Li Peiyun with pity: "You have been cheated."
This Guawazi has been tricked time and again by Li Xianyu, but he just doesn't have a long memory.
Li Peiyun was suddenly not in the mood to eat, and sat silently, with a fierce look on his face as if he was looking for someone to fight for.
Dan Chenzi said goodbye and went up the mountain. Unknowingly, he passed by the courtyard where Qing Huizi lived.
Turning his head and looking around, he saw no one around, the courtyard door was locked, Dan Chenzi tied up his wide sleeves, knotted the hem of his clothes, floated up silently, and landed in the courtyard.
No sound was made.
The courtyard was silent and the main house was dark, with no light coming from the windows.
"Where can she go at this point in time?" Dan Chenzi closed his eyes and listened, catching the steady and powerful heartbeat.
Going to bed so early
