With a clang, the sword light by the river suddenly faded, and a flying sword returned to its sheath.
Chen Changsheng and Zhexiu looked over, only to see that the one who shot was a middle-aged practitioner, dressed in sackcloth, with sharp eyes, and a young Taoist beside him, who should be his companion.
The hundreds of practitioners who entered the Zhou Garden had already entered the Netherworld, and most of them were the backbone of various academies and sects. There were not many people who could tell their age at a glance like this. In Chen Changsheng's mind, if they were not casual cultivators, then They should come from some small sects.
He thinks right, this middle-aged practitioner is named Fu Qiansong, and he is a practitioner in Tiannan called Qingxu Temple, and even the master of Qingxu Temple. Or a place like the Longevity Sect, or it may not be special, but it is already considered a great master in ordinary sects, and the young man is his first disciple, who has just entered the Netherworld.
Seeing Chen Changsheng and Zhexiu suddenly appear, the young Taoist of Qingxuguan suddenly became nervous, his right hand trembled slightly, as if he was ready to summon the flying sword at any moment.
The middle-aged cultivator immediately recognized Chen Changsheng's identity, raised his hand to stop the disciple, then bowed to Chen Changsheng, and said, "I've met Dean Chen."
The little-known sect of Qingxu Temple belongs to the state religion system. According to the rules of Zhou Yuanli, this middle-aged practitioner did not have any psychological barriers to attack the disciples of Shengnvfeng, but he became respectful when facing Chen Changsheng. Because he still had to live outside the Zhou Garden after all, how dare he be rude to Chen Changsheng.
After listening to the self-introduction of this middle-aged practitioner, Chen Changsheng understood what had happened. Looking at the incomplete magic weapon in the opponent's hand, he thought to himself that the treasures and inheritances in the Zhou Garden had almost been discovered. , Why can these two girls from the Holy Maiden Peak be found so easily
"That is the magic weapon that my senior from Cijian Temple found in the Zhou Garden eighty years ago, but he left in a hurry and couldn't take it away, so he hid it under the tree by the river."
Ye Xiaolian looked at the middle-aged cultivator and said angrily, "This belongs to my family, but you actually sneaked up and snatched it, how shameless you are?"
The middle-aged cultivator looked slightly embarrassed. He was in his fifties this year and had been in the Netherworld for many years. He actually used sneak attacks on two young girls who had just entered the Netherland.
As a side branch of the state religion, Qingxu Temple is not afraid of the southerners' revenge afterwards, even if it is the legendary Saint Maiden Peak, because the rules of the Zhou Garden are set by the saints. Chen Changsheng and Zhexiu appeared, so he had no choice but to take the sword back.
Eighty years ago, a senior Taoist nun of Cijian Temple entered Zhou Garden to explore the secrets and found a broken magic weapon, but for some reason she did not take it away, but hid it under a tree. After leaving the garden, she told the secret to future generations of disciples Let them take it out after entering the Zhou Garden. It is conceivable that there must be many secrets hidden behind this long-standing story, and it is even a bit emotional.
Chen Changsheng looked at the injured girl from Shengnvfeng, and asked, "Senior Sister Tong, are you alright?"
Similar to the Longevity Sect, the Saint Maiden Peak also governs many sects. For example, Ye Xiaolian belongs to the Cijian Temple. The little girl has a good talent for cultivation, and she may be able to enter the Nanxi Zhai next year. Nanxi Zhai doesn't have the distinction between inner and outer sects as it is said in the world, it's just that Xu Yourong is the designated next-generation southern saint, so it's a bit special. According to the rank order of entry, Xu Yourong should call this girl with the surname of Tong Senior Sister, Chen For some reason, Changsheng naturally called her Senior Sister, from Tianshu Mausoleum to here.
That Senior Sister Tong stood up with Ye Xiaolian's support, blood was overflowing between her fingers covering her left shoulder, her face was a little pale, she shook her head and said, "It should be fine."
In the Mausoleum of Books of Heaven, she was able to observe the stele and comprehend breaking through the secluded world within a month. The talent for cultivating Taoism can be said to be very good. Ye Xiaolian can also break through the secluded world. It is really good luck, but the real The important reason was the starlight that Chen Changsheng attracted that night.
Candidates for this year's Great Court Examination are very aware of this, so those disciples of the Academy of Reaching the Stars, the Affiliated Academy of the Palace, and the Zongsi Office felt a little sincerely grateful to Chen Changsheng while envious of them, while the two saints like them The female disciples of Nufeng and the disciples of other sects in the south had more complicated feelings towards Chen Changsheng.
No southerner likes Chen Changsheng, but he must accept his affection.
Ye Xiaolian is just a little girl, she thinks things more naively and more directly. At first she humiliated Chen Changsheng in the Shinto way, but her attitude gradually changed. After the night in Tianshu Mausoleum, only awe and gratitude remained. Looking at Chen Changsheng's back from time to time, she felt a lot more stable, as if she had found a backer.
She supported her senior sister to stand behind Chen Changsheng, and stared at the pair of master and apprentice who had a pure view of the emptiness.
The middle-aged practitioner naturally doesn't care about the anger in her eyes, but only cares about Chen Changsheng's attitude. He believes that no matter how talented Chen Changsheng is with his cultivation in the middle of the secluded realm, even if the indifferent young man beside him may be It is impossible for the legendary wolf cub to beat himself, but as a member of the state religion's collateral branch, how could he not be afraid of Chen Changsheng's background from the palace.
Before Chen Changsheng had time to say anything, he said decisively, "Zhou Yuan is huge, and my master and apprentice have to search for it a lot. Dean Chen, I will take my leave now."
The Tong senior sister looked at Chen Changsheng, and said apologetically, "Zhouyuan fetches treasures according to their own abilities. I have no face to ask Brother Chen for help, but that magic weapon is a beloved thing of a senior in the temple. Before the trip, I asked someone to take the message, please let us take it back for her, and please... "
Let's stop here, because she also feels that this request is a bit unreasonable.
Chen Changsheng really didn't know what to do. The pair of master and apprentice of Qingxu Guan sneaked up and snatched things, naturally it was not honorable, but Zhou Yuan's rules are like this, and the other party is a member of the state religion, so he is not lacking in courtesy to himself. On the contrary, although he has a marriage contract with Xu Yourong, but There is no relationship with the Holy Maiden Peak, and the north and the south have different routes. Could he still help the southerners to fight the northerners
This is the first time he has encountered such troublesome multiple choice questions.
I just feel that the saint who set these rules for Zhou Yuan back then is really annoying.
At this moment, a chilling sword intent came from the distant forest.
The middle-aged cultivator's expression changed slightly, he saluted Chen Changsheng, and prepared to take his disciples away.
Senior Sister Tong sighed softly and didn't say anything else, but Ye Xiaolian looked at Chen Changsheng with wide eyes, as if he didn't understand why he let people go away like this, thinking that you are the son-in-law of Shengnvfeng, but she didn't think of it at all. Thinking about it this way, Chen Changsheng had replaced Qiu Shanjun's seemingly irreplaceable position in her heart.
Chen Changsheng looked at the pair of master and apprentice who were wading to the other side of the river, and finally made a decision.
However, at this moment, the leaves shook slightly, and Zhuang Huanyu appeared on the river beach.
He looked at Chen Changsheng with an indifferent expression. He didn't speak, but his meaning was very clear.
He will see what Chen Changsheng will do.
