The woman chatted with Qin Zichen for a while, then turned and walked out. After she went out, Qin Zichen frowned and began to think seriously, where did he see this woman
This woman looks familiar... very familiar.
He couldn't help having a headache, and then he thought, where is Su Qingyi, is she looking for him
He had to figure out a way out quickly.
And Su Qingyi slowly woke up after resting in Tianjianzong for a while. Dan Ran and his group guarded her. Seeing her wake up, Dan Ran hurriedly said, "Junior Sister, are you alright?"
"fine… "
Su Qingyi supported herself to get up, and then saw Dan Ran being slapped on the head by Dan Hui, and scolded: "What is your name, senior!"
After saying that, Dan Hui stepped forward and said with a smile: "I don't know that Senior Su is a great master of the Mahayana. I have offended my sect a lot before, and I hope you will forgive me."
Su Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that everyone knew that she had resumed the Mahayana period. After pondering for a moment, she said seriously: "Qingyi was forced to hide in the Heavenly Sword Sect, but later worshiped under the Heavenly Sword Sect, Becoming Daoist Qin's disciple is true and sincere. If the Sword Sect is Qingyi's sect today, Qingyi will naturally protect each other with her life."
The expression on Dan Hui's face froze, and at this moment, Yun Xuzi walked in with a smile, clapped his hands and said: "Okay, okay, just accept a grandson of the Mahayana period, the old Taoist is very happy!"
Saying that, Yun Xuzi walked to Su Qingyi's window, stared at Su Qingyi in a daze with his eyes open, and said, "What's the matter, disciple, don't you know the old way?"
"Master... Shizu!" Su Qingyi came back to her senses and stammered out. Yun Xuzi laughed out loud, then sighed, and waved to the others, who looked at each other helplessly, turned and left.
When there were only two people left in the room, Yun Xuzi put away his smile, showed a slumped expression, and sighed: "Disciple, now I don't know where to go, Zichen, and you are the only one who can serve the old Taoist."
Su Qingyi: "..."
"Okay, just kidding, Qingyi, what can you gain from this trip to Cangzhou?"
"Master, Master must not have fallen into a demon." Su Qingyi raised her head and said seriously: "I went to the center of evil spirits and found a message from Master."
As he said that, Su Qingyi took out the sound transmission talisman, and Qin Zichen's voice rang again: "There are changes in Cangzhou, bring people here quickly."
"What else?" Yun Xuzi thought seriously, Su Qingyi thought about it, and then said that he had met Qin Zichen in the evil spirit. Yun Xuzi frowned, and after a long time, he said: "You don't need to think about Zichen's matter any more, our top priority is to suppress the soaring evil spirit first, and then follow the vine to investigate, and find out why this evil spirit came from, who is it?" What you did, Zichen's matter, may have a clue."
"But… "
Su Qingyi spoke out in a hurry, Yun Xuzi's face turned cold, and he said seriously: "Qingyi, I know you are worried about Zichen, but you have to remember that before the relationship between children and children, you and I are both monks. You should distinguish between right and wrong. , we will look for Zichen, but the most important thing is to seal the evil spirit, you understand."
Su Qingyi was not talking, she pursed her lips tightly. Yun Xuzi raised his hand, stroked the two slender swords on the bed, and sighed in his eyes: "If Zichen is here, think about it, what does he want you to do? If the lives of thousands of people are exchanged for him to survive alone With a greater chance, will he be happy?"
Hearing this, Su Qingyi froze. After a long time, she lowered her head and said slowly, "Okay..."
The two were speechless for a while, Yun Xuzi waited for a long time, seeing that Su Qingyi had nothing to say, he patted her on the shoulder and said: "We have sent all the disciples we can send out to look for it, you can rest at ease, wait for you to rest Now, let’s go to Huanyin Palace with me. Xiao Su, acting master of Huanyin Palace, sent a post to invite each of the ten sects to send a monk above the integration period to discuss the method of suppressing evil spirits. Cangzhou is the director of Huanyin Palace. When you go Suppress your cultivation, but if there is a sudden change, it can be regarded as a defense."
"Master Zu means that there is a problem with the Huanyin Palace?"
"Zichen and Huanyin Miyamoto have a feud, so be careful when you go to the enemy's territory."
Speaking of Qin Zichen's feud with Huanyingong, Yun Zixu was a little embarrassed. After coughing, he said, "You should rest first."
After Su Qingyi rested in Tianjianzong for a few days, and his physical injuries were almost eliminated, Yun Zixu planned to leave. On the eve of departure, Xue Ziyu came to her room suddenly and said seriously: "Qingyi, Patriarch Xuanhua has an invitation."
Facing Xuanhua, Su Qingyi had very complicated emotions. Generally speaking, if she could see her, she would not want to see her. But the other party sent someone to invite, probably not a trivial matter, so she went to Nanshan anyway.
When I went there, Xuanhua was sitting on the futon, and there was a portrait of a woman in front of the incense table. The woman had a beautiful face, and there are many beauties in the cultivation world, but this woman is still outstanding. Just looking at the portrait, she is so beautiful .
Xuan Hua looked at the portrait in a daze, and when he heard Su Qingyi came, he didn't look back. Su Qingyi walked behind him with her hands behind her back, didn't say much, and looked up at the portrait with him.
"Two thousand three hundred years ago, I saw Ninghua for the first time."
Xuan Hua looked at the portrait, and said calmly: "At that time, I thought that she would be my whole life. Then she left. After a long time, I gradually discovered that the people who passed by will eventually fade away in time. Even if you remember her beauty, her kindness, and your unswerving love for her until death, you will still be irresistible, and let time wear away her color and weight."
Su Qingyi didn't speak, but listened quietly. The moonlight fell on the woman's face, giving her a bit of fairy air.
Xuan Hua closed his eyes and sighed: "Qingyi, last night I had a feeling from the Dao of Heaven. I am approaching a catastrophe. This is a life-and-death catastrophe."
"Life and death calamity?" Su Qingyi recalled that Xuanhua told her that she and Qin Zichen were his doom, so she couldn't help becoming vigilant: "Could it be that your life and death calamity is related to Zichen?"
"I don't know." Xuan Hua shook his head, waved his sleeves, and two jade cards appeared in Su Qingyi's hands.
"The jade card contains my three sword intentions. You can use it to help you in times of crisis. The other is the Xuanluo Token. As long as you pour spiritual power into the jade tablet, all those who have dripped blood on the Xuanluo Token People can appear by your side in an instant, but the Xuanluo Ling can only be used once every ten days, remember."
Xuan Hua spoke seriously. Su Qingyi pursed her lips, holding the jade tablet in her hand, after a long time, finally said: "Thank you."
Xuan Hua didn't speak. He looked up at the portrait, and his voice was a little tired: "I am the ancestor of Tianjianzong. There are bound to be many crises, and I can't personally come out to help you this time, I hope you will be more careful and don't be reckless."
"Yes." Su Qingyi cupped her hands subconsciously, and after a while, she immediately realized that she felt awkward, and turned around and said, "I'm leaving."
"Be careful."
Su Qingyi ignored it and walked out.
On the second day, she followed Yun Xuzi to Cangzhou. Yun Xuzi is a very troublesome person. He is already a monk in the Mahayana period, and he has not yet fasted. He eats while walking along the way, and he does not forget to bring his own poultry with him when he walks. He has to come down to feed the poultry from time to time.
Su Qingyi was anxious, every time she watched Yun Xuzi feed the chattering poultry with a chicken leg in her mouth, she felt a little anxious. Yun Xuzi was very calm, clapped the bran in his hands and said to her, "Don't worry, disciple, most things in this world, you have to take your time. If you are too anxious, something will happen."
"Master, does it mean that there is something wrong with this trip to Huanyin Palace?" Su Qingyi immediately made a detour to go up, Yun Xuzi sighed, stroked his chest, and said with a heavy face: "The old man just thinks that the old man is too fast , flustered!"
Su Qingyi: "..."
"However, you have to have some good habits when walking in the rivers and lakes." Yun Xuzi raised his hand, pointed to the surroundings and said, "Listen?"
Su Qingyi poked out her divine sense in an instant, Yun Xuzi pressed her shoulders, shook her head and said, "No, no, listen with your ears?"
Su Qingyi didn't quite understand, but she still calmed down according to what Yun Xuzi said, and listened carefully to the voices around her. She was the one who opened the top-level sword bone, so she calmed down and listened, and gradually her heart became more and more stable.
The sound of insects, the rustling of leaves, and the discussion of people in the tavern.
"Huanyin Palace has invited masters from the top ten sects in the fusion phase this time. I heard that all sects and sects are not at ease, so they have sent their own elites over."
"Hahaha... Aren't these idiots afraid of making the same mistakes as Penglai? In the Penglai Secret Realm, all the rookies from all the sects are gone, right?"
"My fellow Taoist, you don't know. I heard that all the disciples in Penglaili were rescued by Daoist Jingyan of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Their souls are in good condition."
"Daoist Jingyan... Oh, how did such a person fall into the Tao?"
"I heard that Xiao Yunyun, the owner of Huanyin Palace, was once his fiancée?"
"What is the owner of the Huanyin Palace? She is still lying in the ice coffin and has not recovered! Xiao Su is now in charge of the Huanyin Palace!"
"Who is Xiao Su?"
"The legendary genius of the Huanyin Palace! The 80-year-old Nascent Soul, the youngest elder of the Huanyin Palace..."
There was a lot of discussion, but Su Qingyi listened quietly. Yun Xuzi nodded and continued to feed his poultry. The two walked casually all the way to the Huanyin Palace, successfully becoming the last two to go to the Huanyin Palace.
Su Qingyi originally thought that there would be a lot of dissatisfaction when she arrived at the Huanyin Palace, but when she arrived here, she found that everyone was already used to sitting in the same position, and a young man in black sat on the high seat, With a sneer, he said to the white-clothed man next to him: "I'll tell you, this guy will never arrive on time, I told you not to rush, you have to hurry."
"This is the black and white Shuangsha of Yijianmen. The black one is called Xiaohei, and the white one is called Dabai. Neither of them beat me when I was young."
Yun Xuzi lowered his voice and introduced to Su Qingyi. Although his voice was deliberately suppressed, none of the people present were high-level monks above the fusion stage. He suppressed his voice and spoke as if he hadn't suppressed it. There is a kind of fight!"
"The old man will fight again if he is defeated." Yun Xuzi shook his head, and dragged Su Qingyi to sit in the empty seat above, sitting on a golden seat across from the black and white monks. Su Qingyi suppressed his cultivation, and stood quietly behind Yun Xuzi, not daring to sit down. The black-clothed monk snorted coldly and said, "Why, the Heavenly Sword Sect has such a big face that they can even bring a golden core stage monk?"
"This is my grandson, here to see the world. And my grandson is very knowledgeable in the way of formation, maybe he can come up with an idea?"
"There is Taoist Shen Zhu from the Xingyun Sect, so you can pull it!" The black-clothed monk disdainfully made a sound, Yun Xuzi's eyes fell on Shen Zhu, and he raised his hand and said: "Daoist Shen Zhu has advanced to the stage of fusion? congratulations."
Fu Xiu couldn't simply judge his strength based on his cultivation base. Although Shen Zhu was in the out-of-body stage all the year round, he had defeated two monks in the body-fit stage when he first entered the out-of-body stage, so no one in the room dared to underestimate him. What's more, he is now promoted to the stage of integration, and everyone treats him even more courteously.
Shen Zhu cupped his hands and smiled, and said gently: "It's luck to have a chance."
"Luck is also a part of strength," Yun Xuzi said seriously: "My luck has always been better than Xiao Hei."
"Smelly shameless, what did you say?!"
The black-clothed friar exploded, and the white-clothed friar grabbed him and comforted him, "Xiao Hei, don't be angry."
"What did you call me?!" The monk in black opened his eyes angrily.
Friar in white: "..."
After a while, he seriously corrected: "Black Mountain."
When the two were arguing, a woman floated up, she was wearing a green dress, holding a bamboo flute in her hand, with a gentle and steady smile on her face, after entering the hall, she cupped her hands and said politely: "The younger generation is late, and I hope that the seniors will make amends. "
The one who came was Xiao Su who was in the out-of-body stage. Although she was already the acting master of Huanyin Palace, her cultivation and seniority were still lower than those present. Everyone didn't say much, and after bowing their hands in return, Heishan went straight to the topic and said, "How is the evil situation now?"
"Earlier, I invited Senior Shen Zhu to come and set up a formation beside the evil energy to temporarily suppress the evil energy. Now I hope that all seniors will come and help Senior Shen Zhu to suppress the evil energy."
"Oh?" Hei Shan raised his eyebrows: "Daoist Shen Zhu has a way to suppress evil spirits?"
"In the past, the Nebula Gate was also ravaged by evil spirits." Shen Zhu smiled, and explained gently: "The Nebula Gate has studied for a long time, and specially prepared a formation to suppress evil spirits."
Hearing Shen Zhu's explanation, everyone was relieved, as long as there is a way. And Hei Shan stared at Shen Zhu's eyes seriously, and after a while, he laughed out loud: "So he's blind."
The complexions of all the people present changed. Su Qingyi looked at Hei Shan coldly. Hei Shan sipped his tea with Erlang's legs crossed, and changed into a comfortable posture: "Okay, since there is a solution, little friend Shen Zhu said it."
Shen Zhu smiled, and said the method without changing his face, it was nothing more than he set up the formation, and everyone poured spiritual power into the formation together, and controlled the operation of the formation with spiritual consciousness.
"However, this formation consumes a lot of spiritual power and requires a lot of spiritual consciousness, so it cannot be completed without relying on everyone..." Shen Zhu smiled, and the white-robed man beside Heishan nodded, and said calmly: " Suppressing evil spirits is the responsibility of the entire cultivation world, and this is our job, so little friend Chen Zhu can rest assured."
"In that case," Xiao Su said with a smile: "Then seniors, please go back to rest first, and wait for fellow Taoist Shen Zhu to set up the formation, and then I will inform you all."
"It's easy to say," Yun Xuzi waved his hand, "Then the old Taoist will take his disciples and grandchildren to rest first."
"The last to come, the earliest to leave, Yun Xuzi, after all these years, you are still so shameless." Heishan sneered, Yun Xuzi dusted off the dust, ignored him, and walked out with Su Qingyi. The monks present got up and went out one after another, Shen Zhu stretched out his hand to hold the green bamboo stick beside him, Heishan didn't know what kind of thoughts he had, suddenly pulled the green bamboo stick into his hand, and held it in his hand. After the green bamboo stick was removed, Shen Zhu frowned slightly, looked up at Heishan, and said coldly: "Senior Heishan, please return the green bamboo stick to me."
"Yo, can you see? Why are you pretending to be blind!"
Hei Shan twirled the green bamboo stick in his hand, making a sound of dissatisfaction. At that moment, the sword intent suddenly overwhelmed the sky, Heishan's face changed, and in an instant, a sword stopped in front of the tip of his nose.
This is an extremely gorgeous sword, the body of the sword seems to seal a pool of water on the body of the sword, and the ripples of the water can still be seen in the swirling green light.
The sword came so fast that he didn't notice it at all, and it was held very firmly, stopping in front of his skin without a trace of trembling.
He could clearly feel the icy chill of the sword. Looking along the sword, he could see that the person holding the sword was a woman who looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. She was wearing a blue robe and white shirt, her hair was half up in a snake bun, and she was pretty. There was a chill in his brows and eyes, like the Daoist Jingyan who was invincible in the way of swordsman in the past.
With a sullen face, Hei Shan held the green bamboo staff, looked at the Jindan female monk and sneered, "But a mere Jindan monk dares to act presumptuously in front of me, is he not dead?!"
"Give him back the green bamboo stick." Su Qingyi said coldly, while Yun Xuzi was whistling beside him, looking up at the ceiling as if he didn't see anything.
Heishan's complexion changed a few times, and finally he sneered: "Why, this fellow Taoist has taken a fancy to this blind man's looks? Are you Jingyan's apprentice? Jingyan alone can't satisfy you..."
Before he could finish speaking, the sword energy burst out majesticly from the tip of the sword, Heishan retreated quickly, and a long sword suddenly appeared, at that moment, a golden epee suddenly shot out across the sky, and slapped fiercely at the other party!
Bai Shui's complexion changed, and he jumped into the battle. Yun Xuzi turned his head and said, "Hey, Heishan Baishui, are you shameless? Two old monsters who lived for two thousand years hit me, a disciple of the golden core period? Tsk tsk, no wonder Back then, the two combined didn't beat me..."
Bai Shui blushed at Yun Xuzi's words, he held Su Qingyi with his sword, and blocked Heishan with his other hand. Seeing Bai Shui joining the battle, Su Qingyi didn't want to make a big fuss, so she withdrew her sword, holding a light sword in her hand, standing beside Wudao, looking at Black Mountain coldly.
Holding a green bamboo stick in one hand and a long sword in the other, Heishan stopped in front of Bai Shui with a fierce face, and said coldly: "Bai Shui, let me see, if I don't show this child some color today, she won't understand..."
"Enough!" Bai Shui yelled angrily, raised his hand and said, "Give me the green bamboo stick! You have such a quarrel with a Jindan stage junior, do you have a bright face?!"
Heishan's face froze when Bai Shui said it, he snorted coldly, threw the green bamboo stick into Bai Shui's hand, then turned and left. Bai Shui walked up to Su Qingyi with a green bamboo stick, and offered it with both hands: "My brother is spoiled, I hope you don't blame me."
Su Qingyi nodded, took the green bamboo stick, walked in front of Shen Zhu with some hesitation, and said stiffly: "Senior Shen Zhu, here it is."
Shen Zhu didn't speak, his eyes that couldn't see anything seemed to be sizing her up seriously, Su Qingyi was a little puzzled: "Senior?"
"Little friend... the one who saved me back then?" Shen Zhu recognized her, Su Qingyi smiled, nodded and said: "Exactly."
"It's been a few years, but I've already entered the Golden Core, my little friend's future is limitless." Shen Zhu took the green bamboo stick from her hand, and said seriously: "Thank you very much."
"No, I'll see you off."
"It doesn't need to be like this." Shen Zhu shook his head and said with a smile: "Although my eyes are blind, my heart is still fine. I can see everything clearly."
"Shen Zhu..." Su Qingyi looked up in surprise, and Shen Zhu's eyes were gentle: "Fellow Daoist, have you been alright all these years?"
"Okay..." Su Qingyi's voice was hoarse, and she lowered her head slowly: "I'm in Tianjianzong, and I'm staying very well."
"That's good." Shen Zhu sighed, tapped the ground with his green bamboo stick, and said gently: "We must know that you are doing well, and Shen Zhu's heart is at ease, so I will take my leave first."
As he spoke, he tapped the ground and walked out slowly.
Su Qingyi was worried, said hello to Yun Xuzi, and followed quietly. After sending Shen Zhu back to the room, Su Qingyi suddenly heard the disciple say: "The Dai Palace Mistress just lost her temper in the room, it seems that Alai broke a cup..."
"How can someone with such a good temper break the quilt?"
"It's probably too busy. Think about it. Ever since the palace lord had an accident on Penglai Island, the Huanyin Palace has never been stable. Such a big incident happened in Cangzhou. If the evil spirit really cannot be controlled, the first Isn’t it the Huanyin Palace that suffered the disaster?”
Listening to the disciple's words, a thought suddenly flashed in Su Qingyi's mind. Although she knew the possibility was slim, she still couldn't help but want to go to Xiao Su to ask Qin Zichen's whereabouts. After all... Cangzhou is the territory of Huanyin Palace, maybe she knows better
After all, it was also the one who had said a few words in Penglai... an acquaintance
After Su Qingyi forced himself to have a relationship with Xiao Su, he immediately asked the servants and rushed to Xiao Su's residence.
When she arrived at Xiao Su's residence, Xiao Su seemed to be taking a nap in the room, she asked the servants to go in first to report, and then waited outside.
In December, the lake in Huanyin Palace had already frozen over. Su Qingyi stood on the small bridge, looking down at the frozen lake.
In the room surrounded by incense, Xiao Su closed the book, looked at the handsome young man by the wall whose limbs were tied by iron chains, and said gently: "Ah, the person you want to see must have come."
As she spoke, she raised her hand, quickly cast a barrier around her, brushed off her sleeves, got up and said, "I'll go and have a look, Jing Yan, you have to be good."
After speaking, she stood up and walked out of the secret room. Qin Zichen struggled to open his eyes, and heard the sound of the door opening outside, and Xiao Su said with a smile: "Friend Su, why don't you go inside and talk?"
Then came the voice that made him miss it day and night.
"Palace Master Xiao, Qingyi is taking the liberty."
Qin Zichen raised his hand with difficulty. He had no strength in his body, but it was still extremely difficult. Little by little, he crawled towards the direction of the voice on the ground.
"Qingyi..." He used all his strength to call out the name: "I am here... Qingyi..."
However, the people outside seemed to be unable to hear anything, and the hoarse voice was full of worry: "I am here to ask Palace Master Xiao, is there any news about Daoist Jingyan?"
"I'm looking for him, I'm worried about him." Su Qingyi's voice lost its usual vigor, it was full of exhaustion, and there was also a strong nostalgia behind him, mixed with a faint cry—
"I miss him a lot."
Qin Zichen, I miss you very much, where are you
Qin Zichen lay on the ground, stunned for a moment, raised his head, embarrassed and struggling, looked at the crack of the door where the light was leaking, and stretched out his hand tremblingly.
