Gui Li's body moved slightly, he woke up slowly from a confused void, turned over and sat up on the bed, but he still seemed to feel a little dizzy, with his current level of skill, he would still have This kind of situation is really extremely rare. It's just that Gui Li didn't seem to care about this at all, he collected himself, heaved a sigh of relief, turned around, was startled suddenly, and saw a jade plate lying on the floor of the stone room, emitting a soft white radiance, it was Qian Kun. Reincarnation disk. The monkey Xiao Hui also squatted beside the jade plate, seeming to be quite curious about the jade plate, looking left and right, trying to reach out to touch the jade plate several times, but every time he stretched halfway and then retracted, falling back. It seems that he is a little afraid of this jade plate.
Gui Li frowned, and pondered for a while, but he couldn't remember whether he dropped the jade plate on the ground, not only that, he didn't even know how he walked back here from the cold stone room. Feeling a little fuzzy, presumably because I was too disappointed just now, and my spirit is not good!
Ghost Li was silent, then smiled bitterly, sighed, got off the bed lightly, bent down and picked up the reincarnation disk on the ground, Xiao Hui sat on the ground, looked up at Ghost Li, three eyes were shining brightly , I don't know what I'm thinking.
Gui Li gently waved to the monkey and said, "Come here, Xiao Hui."
Xiao Hui yelled "Zhi Zhi" twice, jumped over, jumped onto Ghost Li's body three or two times, but still seemed to be a bit jealous of the Universe Reincarnation Disk in Ghost Li's hand, and finally did not stay in Ghost Li's arms, but He jumped on Gui Li's shoulder, sat down, and looked at the jade plate in Gui Li's hand from time to time.
Gui Li didn't think too much, stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Hui's body, there was only this monkey in this world, who was always by his side. After a while, his eyes fell on the universe reincarnation disk again. In the white soft light, the jade disk was still the same as before. In the center of the jade disk, the countless small pieces of jade were still following their own magical and unique tracks. Gliding endlessly, as if nothing had happened at all.
Gui Li silently stared at the jade plate in his hand, the white radiance from the jade plate also sprinkled on his face, but he didn't know what secret was hidden in it.
Gui Li looked at it for a long time, finally shook his head lightly, a look of disappointment flashed across his face, took the black cloth, wrapped the Universe Reincarnation Disk and put it back in his arms. Xiao Hui, lying on Gui Li's shoulder, has been watching Gui Li's movements, when seeing Gui Li put the jade plate back into his bosom, Xiao Hui suddenly let out a "squeak".
Gui Li turned his head, a little puzzled, frowned and said: "What's the matter, Xiao Hui?"
Xiao Hui stretched out his hands and scratched his head, but he didn't seem to be able to tell what was wrong or what was important, so he spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders. Gui Li stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Hui's head, didn't pay much attention, sat for a while, then suddenly said: "Xiao Hui, how long have I been lying down?"
Xiao Hui's three eyeballs rolled around, screamed "Zhi Zhi Zhi Zhi", and gestured with both hands at the same time, Gui Li looked at it for a while, and slowly said: "It's been so long, let's go for a walk !” He paused, stood up, and at the same time held Xiaohui in his arms and touched it lightly. His expression was a little sad, but he took a long breath and said calmly: “No matter what, we still have to live. ,right?"
Xiao Hui's three eyes kept rolling, and he didn't know if it understood the meaning of Gui Li's words, but Ghost Li didn't have the energy to think deeply, so he patted Xiao Hui's back lightly, and Xiao Hui crawled along Getting on his shoulder, Gui Li walked towards the stone gate, they walked out amidst the low sound of the stone gate opening.
Outside the stone chamber, passages extending in all directions still extend to both sides, but those increasingly dense and thick cracks strongly remind the people here of the unknown strange existence and danger. Ghost Li stood at the door for a while, his eyes fell on those big or small cracks in the passage.
Some of these cracks are already extremely huge, cracking from the top of the passage to close to the ground, exposing the gray rock in it. After these cracks appeared, the originally hard stone wall seemed to be as weak as thin paper. Gui Li slowly walked to the vicinity of a crack on the nearby stone wall, stared at it expressionlessly for a long time.
Afterwards, he looked up at the top of the passage again, and frowned slightly. These cracks appeared in large numbers after he left Huqi Mountain last time. While in the middle, I clearly remembered that the source of the mysterious power that suddenly appeared was deep underground, but looking at the cracks on the surrounding stone walls, the top of the passage was the most severely damaged, followed by the stone walls on both sides, and The passageway for walking back and forth under the feet was almost unharmed, except for a few small cracks, not a single big crack was seen.
Gui Li pondered for a moment, then shook his head suddenly, a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes, it seemed that he was in a bad mood, although these cracks looked very weird, but he really didn't have the heart to go deep into them. Gathering his mind, Gui Li stopped looking at the criss-crossing cracks around him, and walked towards the side passage with Xiao Hui.
The passage stretches all the way. What is different from usual is that it is much quieter here than usual. It seems that the disciples of Ghost King Sect would rather hide in their own rooms than anyone willing to come out for a walk. In the huge passage, only Ghost Li is left. The figure of a person.
But Ghost Li obviously didn't care about these things, judging from the direction he was walking, he was walking towards the entrance of the cave, maybe he was too bored and wanted to go out for a walk.
Ghost Li's footsteps echoed in the passage, it was much louder than usual because it was too quiet. The monkey Xiao Hui lay on his shoulder, and seemed a little unaccustomed to this excessive silence, turning his head around and looking around.
Suddenly, Xiao Hui's head stopped and looked forward, Ghost Li also felt something almost at the same time, stopped, looked ahead, and saw that the empty passage ahead was still empty, but after a while, there really was There was no movement, but a black figure floated over without a sound.
It turned out to be the elusive and mysterious Mr. Ghost.
At the same time, Mr. Ghost saw Gui Li standing alone in front of him, he seemed to be startled, and stopped in his tracks.
The two looked at each other for a while, but they didn't speak. The atmosphere in the passage became a little cold and awkward. In the end, Mr. Ghost said indifferently: "When did you come back?"
Gui Li said indifferently: "I just came back not long ago."
Mr. Ghost nodded, it seemed that he had nothing to say, anyway, he said something, it was considered as a greeting, and he walked forward slowly, Gui Li silently stepped aside.
It's just that when Mr. Gui walked past Gui Li, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Seeing his actions, he seemed to be a little hesitant, which is rare in usual times. He pondered for a moment before saying: "You mean you just came back not long ago?"
Gui Li said indifferently: "Yes, what's the matter?"
Mr. Ghost hesitated for a moment, as if he was considering his words in his heart, and said slowly: "Then... have you noticed... is there something wrong here?"
Gui Li glanced at Mr. Gui, and said, "What do you mean?"
Mr. Gui was silent for a while, then shook his head, and said lightly: "No, it's nothing, I'll go first." After speaking, he walked straight forward without saying another word.
Gui Li looked at his figure from behind, and saw Mr. Ghost's black figure gradually walking away in the passage, erratic, a bit ghost-like and weird at first glance, but his figure was shorter than before. Much slower. In Gui Li's eyes, Mr. Ghost walked slowly, and his walking direction was not in a straight line, leaning towards the sides of the stone wall from time to time, especially when he came to a place with a stone room, Mr. Ghost would intentionally or unintentionally approach the door of the stone room, He paused for a while before continuing on.
For some reason, it seems a bit like looking for something
Gui Li turned around indifferently, even if Mr. Gui really wanted to find something, he would not care about it at all. Following the original direction, Gui Li continued to walk forward again, this time he met no one on the road, and soon reached the entrance of the cave.
When Gui Li walked out of the cave, a ray of sunlight, with some warmth, sprinkled on his face.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath. In the sunshine and light, it seemed that the stone in his heart finally became a little lighter.

Qingyun Mountain, Tongtian Peak.
As the days passed day by day, Daoxuan, the head teacher of Qingyunmen, never showed up again. As Daoxuan, the leader of the world's righteous way, this is naturally not a trivial matter, but he has been hiding it and looking for it secretly. Xiao Yicai, the head disciple, is also under increasing pressure.
From time to time outside the Qingyun Sect, people from different sects of the righteous way came to ask questions, not to mention, those are easy to deal with, but there are already many factions in the Qingyun Sect, and Master Daoxuan did not really pass the position of head teacher to Xiao Yicai, so many things Xiao Yicai was quite tricky to deal with. And all the branches of Qingyunmen have always focused on Tongtian Peak. Seeing that there is something strange about the headmaster of this sect, there has been no news for many days. The others simply said that Master Xuan had already gone out to wander and relax, and no one knew the whereabouts of his old man.
Speaking of it, I can't blame Xiao Yicai, Daoxuan Master Daoxuan's situation at this time, among the thousands of people in the Qingyun Sect, only Xiaozhufeng's Shuiyue Master and Lu Xueqi are really aware of it, and Dazhufeng's Tian Buyi, who was originally a great help However, Suru and his wife passed away one after another. Master Shuiyue and Lu Xueqi didn't talk about it, how did other people know this big secret in Qingyun Sect, they had to ask Xiao Yicai.
At this moment, Xiao Yicai showed a tired look on his face, and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight. With his previous shrewd, capable and energetic appearance, there was a big difference. One could imagine how much pressure he was bearing on his shoulders at this moment. But he still couldn't rest. In the Yuqing Hall of Tongtian Peak where he was, the other six branches of Qingyun Sect seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. Such a long-term absence has never happened before.
Among Qingyun's six veins, most of the first ones were present, except Xiaozhufeng's first Master Shuiyue, and her most famous disciple Lu Xueqi was also absent, but Lu Xueqi's senior sister Wen Min did. Most of the rest of the leaders sat in the middle, and the most eye-catching one was the leader of the Dazhu Peak lineage, and finally the eldest disciple Song Daren took over.
Among the crowd, Song Daren was still wearing mourning clothes, obviously still keeping his filial piety for his master and his wife, his face was also quite gloomy, occasionally his eyes glanced over the crowd, and he accidentally saw Wen Min standing opposite him on Xiaozhufeng, gently He nodded towards him.
Song Daren was silent, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, he forced a smile at Wen Min, but quickly lowered his head, obviously still immersed in grief. A bit of sadness flashed across Wen Min's eyes, and his face was also a little sad.
Although today's gathering is a gathering of six veins, the leaders are naturally not Song Daren and Qi Hao, the second-generation young disciples who have recently taken over as the first seats, but Zeng Shuchang, the head seat of Fenghui Peak, and others are naturally doing their part, and immediately asked Xiao Yicai questions.
Although Xiao Yicai had been dealing with the daily affairs of the sect for some time, after all Daoxuan Master did not clearly pass on the position of head teacher to him, so instead he had to stand and answer in front of these heads of various branches. There was no seat. The chair belonging to Daoist Qingyun sect head teacher was empty, and Xiao Yicai was standing beside this big chair, with a bitter smile on his face, answering everyone's questions one by one.
Just asking back and forth, although the atmosphere is not good, but still can't find out why, Xiao Yicai insisted that he really doesn't know the whereabouts of Master Daoxuan in charge, and in fact he really doesn't know, he can only say that Master Daoxuan knows the way Fa Tongxuan, perhaps his spiritual heart was touched the day before yesterday, and he went out for a wandering.
The chiefs of each lineage and the elders of the Qingyun Sect naturally found it hard to believe these words. Daoxuan Daoxuan took over the position of head teacher of the Qingyun Sect for many years, and there was never such a thing as traveling abroad without leaving any news, but Xiao Yicai kept repeating this answer. It's also helpless, you can't force it to say that the past would not work without the present, right
This question went from the morning to the climax, everyone was exhausted, Xiao Yicai was even more exhausted, but in the end he still gave the same answer as at the beginning, and all the members of the Qingyun sect looked at each other in blank dismay. After a while, Zeng Shuchang, the head of Fenghui Peak, stood up first, let out a cold snort full of anger, and walked away.
The leaders went, Qi Hao, Song Daren and others were all called by these uncles and uncles to make up the numbers, so naturally they also followed and left one after another.
Seeing the leaving figure of his fellow disciples in the field, Xiao Yicai slowly breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly swayed his body, and felt a sense of collapse. Fortunately, his foundation was deep, so he immediately stabilized his body, secretly gave a wry smile, and sighed in his heart: "Mr. My lord, what's wrong with you old man, if you don't come back, I really can't hold it anymore."
Leaving Xiao Yicai feeling bitter here, Song Daren followed the crowd out there, all the disciples of the Dazhu Peak sect were in mourning period, so no one came with him. He walked out of Yuqing Palace silently, the scene he saw just now reminded him of the death of his master and wife, Song Daren felt even more bitter in his heart, he really didn't want to stay here any longer, he just wanted to leave this place quickly.
It's just that after he walked out of the Yuqing Hall and went down the stone steps, he was about to walk across the Hongqiao to the sea of clouds and return to the mountain from there, but suddenly he heard someone calling him: "Daren."
Song Daren turned around to look, but it was Xiaozhufeng Wenmin standing beside him, waving to him, Song Daren's heart warmed slightly, and he walked over. Seeing his haggard look, Wen Min felt sore in his heart, just about to say something, but hesitated to speak, seeing that there were people passing by all the time, and it was not the place to talk, so he winked at Song Daren, and walked forward go.
Song Daren understood, followed her across the Hongqiao, and came to the wide platform of the sea of clouds. The two walked to a remote place nearby, and seeing no one around, Wen Min said: "You, are you okay?"
Song Daren gave a wry smile, bowed his head and said: "You know about my situation, alas..." He sighed, lowered his head and said: "However, there are still many juniors under me, if I don't take up this burden, they will I'm afraid it will be even more uncomfortable."
Wen Min's eye circles were also slightly red, and he stretched out his hand to hold Song Daren's big hand in the palm of his hand, Song Daren was startled, and looked up at her.
Wen Min said softly: "Daren, you are their elder brother, and now you have taken over the burden of being the head of the Great Bamboo Peak, and have to take care of your juniors. Although it is hard, you have to support yourself."
Song Daren only felt soft and moist in his hands, and there was a faint fragrance coming from the woman in front of him, and the eyes were even more gentle, and the pain in his heart eased a bit. He gently clenched Wen Min's hand, nodded, and said, "Yes."
Wen Min nodded, and smiled at him. Although the two of them hadn't met each other for a long time, their relationship seemed to be deeper now. Song Daren was silent for a moment, and said: "I originally wanted to beg Master and Mistress to invite them The two elders decided to propose marriage to Martial Uncle Shuiyue, but in the current situation, I really... "
Before he finished speaking, a slender white finger suddenly pressed his lips and stopped his words. Song Daren raised his eyes to look at Wen Min, and Wen Min said softly: "I understand, the current situation is natural. It's not the time to think about these things. You can just go back to the mountain at ease, and after this period of time is over, we can discuss what to do. Anyway, my intentions...you know it too." After speaking, Wen Min's cheeks were slightly red, and her voice was quiet down.
Song Daren was moved in his heart, his blood surged inexplicably, he couldn't help but take a step and wanted to hug Yi Ren into his arms. Wen Min was frightened by him, quickly took a step back and dodged over, angrily said: "Fool, don't be afraid of being seen!"
Song Daren came to his senses at this moment, and looked around in the blink of an eye, he saw that although the place where the two were standing was remote and uninhabited, there were still many Qingyun disciples above the sea of clouds in the distance, although no one had noticed this place for the time being, it was hard to tell Not "occasionally" looked over. Song Daren smiled mischievously, and said: "It's my fault, I, I'm a little confused."
Looking at his appearance, Wen Min felt a little unbearable. She rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't blame you anymore. Why are you acting like this? The current situation is not good. In the future, as long as we have the heart, we will eventually be here together, you know, idiot?"
Song Daren nodded repeatedly, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Min, you are so kind to me."
Wen Min rolled his eyes at him again, but seeing his expression, he couldn't help but smile after all, and Song Daren also laughed. The two stood together, tender and affectionate for a moment, although everything outside them was still like the eve of the storm, but they still had good expectations for the future in their hearts.
After coming over for a while, Wen Min said in a low voice, "I should go."
Although Song Daren was reluctant to give up, he also knew that he could not stay for a long time, so he nodded and said, "Alright, be careful all the way."
Wen Min glanced at him, and said softly: "You have to take care of yourself, no matter what, you will be fine in the future."
Song Daren nodded and said, "I know, you should cherish yourself as well."
Wen Min squeezed his palm lightly, then let go, turned around and walked out of the sea of clouds, Song Daren watched her take off with a sword in the air, and waved slowly while buffering her back until her figure disappeared into the depths of the sea of clouds , never to be seen again.
※※※
The blue sky and white clouds, the mountains and clear waters are beautiful, looking at the Xiaozhu Peak of the Qingyun Mountains from a high altitude, the mountains are full of green bamboo forests, the scenery is beautiful, almost like a fairyland.
Wen Min fell from the sky and returned to Little Bamboo Peak. A few young female disciples had already run over to greet her. One of them said, "Senior Sister Wen, Master told you to go see her as soon as you come back."
Wen Min nodded, walked forward, and asked at the same time: "Master, where is the old man now?"
A disciple next to him said: "Master is still in her bamboo forest abode, it seems that Senior Sister Xueqi is also there."
Wen Min was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Why, Xue Qi is with Master?"
The young female disciple next to her said: "That's right, after you left early this morning, Master called Senior Sister Xueqi over."
Wen Min nodded, and said: "Understood, I'll go there right away, you guys go on your own!"
Everyone nearby agreed, and walked away with a smile. Looking at these young and ignorant junior sisters, Wen Min couldn't help but feel a little envious of them. Perhaps simplicity makes people happier!
She stood there watching their backs disappear for quite a while, then she sighed and quickened her pace towards Master Shuiyue's abode in the depths of the bamboo forest.
The path in the bamboo forest is winding, and the green bamboos on both sides are tall and straight, and the air seems to be more fragrant. After passing a few corners, the bamboo forest jingshe gradually appeared.
Wen Min came to the door of the Jingshe, knocked lightly on the door made of bamboo twice, and said, "Master, disciple Wen Min is here."
Immediately, Master Shuiyue's voice came from the Abode, and said lightly: "Come in!"
Following Master Shuiyue's voice, the door of the jingshe opened with a deep "squeak" sound, and Lu Xueqi's beautiful figure appeared in front of her eyes, she smiled slightly at Wen Min, and said, "Senior sister, you are back. "
Wen Min smiled at Lu Xueqi and walked in.
Inside the house, Master Shuiyue sat on a simple bamboo bed, Lu Xueqi walked over and stood beside her, Master Shuiyue glanced at Wen Min, and said: "Are you just back?"
Wen Min said respectfully: "Yes, this disciple just returned from Tongtian Peak."
Master Shuiyue was silent for a moment, then said lightly, "Tell me what happened on Tongtian Peak today?"
Wen Min nodded, and said: "Yes." Then he roughly described the situation today, during which everyone questioned and Xiao Yicai answered in embarrassment, and almost did not miss out.
Master Shuiyue listened quietly to Wen Min's words, without saying a word, and Lu Xueqi next to her was also expressionless, but when Wen Min said that Xiao Yicai was in a difficult situation, she couldn't help turning her head to look at Master Shuiyue, but Shuiyue The master's face was indifferent, as if he didn't feel anything at all.
Wen Min talked for a long time before he roughly finished talking about today's situation. At the end, he hesitated and said: "Master, there is one more thing, I don't know whether I should say it..."
Master Shuiyue closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something after hearing what Wen Min said just now, and said calmly, "Just say what you want!"
Wen Min responded, and said: "Yes, that disciple said it. Today the six meridians gathered at Tongtian Peak, and the other five meridians all went. Only you didn't go. Master Zeng and others from Fenghui Peak complained to the disciples. A few words, and asked the disciples to tell the master that everyone is from the same lineage of the Qingyun sect, the same clan and ancestors, and I want you to stand up and speak out, master."
After finishing speaking, Wen Min cautiously raised his eyes to look at Master Shuiyue, but saw that Master Shuiyue was indifferent, neither angry nor agreed, just closed his eyes and meditated.
Master Shuiyue didn't speak, so Wen Min naturally didn't dare to say anything more. After a while, Master Shuiyue slowly opened his mouth and said to Wenmin: "What you said just now is that except for me, all the other five meridians have gone?"
Wen Min was taken aback for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."
Master Shuiyue glanced at Wen Min and said, "Who went to the Big Bamboo Peak?"
Wen Min's heart skipped a beat, for some reason the master suddenly singled out Dazhufeng for questioning, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's Song Daren, the eldest disciple of Master Tian and Uncle Su who passed away."
Lu Xueqi, who was standing by the side, darkened quietly, and a bit of bitterness flashed in her eyes.
Master Shuiyue also had a sad face, sighed, and said, "Apart from him, who else has gone to the Great Bamboo Peak?"
Wen Min said: "All the brothers and sisters from the same sect in Dazhu Peak are attending the funeral, so only Senior Brother Song Daren went, even Senior Brother Song was dressed in filial piety."
Master Shuiyue was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "It's not easy for them... Did you go to comfort that Song Daren?"
Wen Min was taken aback. Master Shuiyue treats his disciples very strictly on weekdays, and he is even more strict with this kind of situation. Wen Min and Song Daren have secretly been in love for many years. Master scolded, this time Master Shuiyue suddenly brought it up, really broke out in cold sweat, hesitated for a long time, and then whispered: "Master, I, I think that Senior Brother Song is really pitiful, so my heart softened for a while, this Only then did I go up and say a few words to him. Disciple, disciple will never dare to disobey your teaching, Master."
Master Shuiyue looked at Wen Min silently, Wen Min's heart was beating faster and faster, wondering if he was going to be punished by Master. Unexpectedly, after a while, Master Shuiyue suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "Xiao Min, you don't have to be so afraid, Master didn't mean to blame you."
Wen Min almost thought he heard it wrong, and said in amazement, "Master, what did you say?"
Master Shuiyue said indifferently: "Right now Dazhu Peak is keeping filial piety, it will be impossible in a short period of time, after a while, you can ask that Song Daren to come over to propose marriage, anyway, he is also the head of the line now, not humiliated you."
There was a buzzing sound in Wen Min's mind, as if he couldn't accept it all at once, he was so happy that he couldn't speak, but he didn't understand how his mentor, who had always been firmly opposed to this matter, suddenly changed his attitude.
Sitting on the bamboo bed, Master Shuiyue saw the smile of happiness mixed with surprise on the face of the disciple in front of him, sighed secretly in his heart, and thought silently: "Perhaps she will have more happiness if she figured it out earlier. !"
Lu Xueqi walked over from the side, put her arms around Wen Min's shoulders, and gently hugged her senior sister, her eyes were also full of joy for her, and said softly: "Senior sister, congratulations."
Under Wen Min's excitement, she couldn't help but her eyes were slightly red, and tears were about to drop in her eyes, she quickly wiped them with her hands.
Master Shuiyue saw it in his eyes, he was angry and funny, and said angrily: "But I promised you, why are you so happy?"
Wen Min was a little embarrassed, his cheeks were flushed, he bowed down to Master Shuiyue, and said softly: "My disciple thank you for your great kindness and virtue."
Master Shuiyue stared at Wen Min for a long time, shook his head, and said softly: "Forget it, get up!"
Lu Xueqi helped Wen Min up from the side, Master Shuiyue looked at Wen Min softly, and said, "Master can no longer make decisions for you in the future, and you have to learn to take care of yourself in the future."
Wen Min felt a sudden soreness in her heart, she had regarded Master Shuiyue as both a teacher and a mother for a long time, and couldn't help but choked up in a low voice.
Master Shuiyue waved his hand and said: "Okay, you are tired after running back and forth today, go back and rest!"
Wen Min's voice was choked with sobs, and he said, "Yes, the disciple has resigned."
She said, and slowly backed out. Lu Xueqi followed her and sent her a long way before returning.
In the monastery, the master and the apprentice faced each other silently. After a while, Master Shuiyue suddenly gave a wry smile and said, "I was wrong before, causing her to suffer from lovesickness, and also harming you."
Lu Xueqi walked over and knelt gently in front of Master Shuiyue, and said in a low voice: "Master, we were all raised and taught by you, only we did something wrong, and we dare not have the slightest thought of resenting Master."
Master Shuiyue stretched out his hand, gently stroked Lu Xueqi's black and soft hair, sighed, and said, "Get up!"
Lu Xueqi responded and stood up. Master Shuiyue closed his eyes and meditated, and did not speak any more.
Lu Xueqi was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Master, I have something to say."
Master Shuiyue opened his eyes and looked at her, with a calm expression on his face, he said lightly: "You want to talk about the Tongtian Peak?"
Lu Xueqi nodded and said: "Exactly. Now Master Tian and Uncle Su of Dazhu Peak have both passed away one after another, and Master Daoxuan... I'm afraid it's really hard to turn back, why don't we tell the truth to other fellow sects, even if For the sake of Qing Yunmen's face, but at least I know that senior brother Xiao Yicai is the head of the other six veins and Tongtian Peak!"
Master Shuiyue was silent for a moment, and said: "You are right, I have thought about all these."
Lu Xueqi was startled, and said: "Master, how can you pay it back?..."
Master Shuiyue smiled wryly, and said: "You mean, since I thought about it, why didn't I tell them? Silly boy, have you ever thought about it, how many people will believe what we say after we tell it? "
Lu Xueqi was stunned and speechless, unable to speak for a while.
Master Shuiyue sighed, and said: "As you said just now, there are thousands of people in Qingyun Sect, only you, Uncle Tian, Uncle Su, Wei Shi and you, are the only ones who know this secret, and now both of them have passed away. Well, only the two of us know about it. But even if we tell it, do you think anyone in the Qingyun sect will believe this, and will anyone believe that the ancient sword of Zhu Xian, a treasure of our sect, actually contains the hostility of demon spirits? Xuan, the master teacher who has saved the common people in the world several times, has become a violent and murderous demon?"
Lu Xueqi was stunned and speechless.
Master Shuiyue said in a low voice: "This secret should have been passed down only by the successors of the past generations. If it is told, no one in Qingyunmen will believe it, let alone we don't have the slightest evidence, so how come explain?"
Lu Xueqi gritted her teeth tightly, and said in a shy voice for a long time: "But, in the current situation, the matter of Uncle Daoxuan may not be covered up sooner or later. Even if we don't say it, there will be a day when he will suddenly run out by himself, so what should we do? manage?"
Master Shuiyue sighed, closed his eyes and said, "What to do, I don't know what to do anymore?"
Lu Xueqi was silent, and the room fell into silence.
Outside the house, the green bamboo grove swayed gently with the wind, sending out bursts of pleasant bamboo waves, and the scenery was pleasing to the eye; while in the bamboo grove in the forest, it seemed more and more depressing.

Hu Qishan, Ghost King Zong.
In the next few days, Gui Li tried to use the universe reincarnation disk to heal Baguio every day, but for some reason, except for the accidental change of the acacia bell in the first universe reincarnation disk, every subsequent time Try, the universe reincarnation disk is still the same universe reincarnation disk, but He Huanling no longer responds. Every time Gui Li placed the acacia bell on the top of the universe reincarnation disk, there was no scene of the bell ringing and glowing, each time it fell straight into the jade disk like a small stone.
Although Gui Li did not give up, he still tried with the hope of just in case, but what awaited him were countless failures. In the first days, the Ghost King often waited in the Ice Stone Chamber, but after witnessing many failures, he seemed to give up earlier than Ghost Li, and the number of visits became less and less. Never been here.
Perhaps, for the King of Ghosts, watching Ghost Li fail again and again, for him, it is actually a more painful thing!
"Snapped… "
With a soft crisp sound and a slight echo, the Hehuan Bell fell from the midair again and landed in the center of the universe reincarnation disk. After turning a few times, it stopped moving.
Ghost Li's face was expressionless, and even disappointment seemed to be numb, he didn't continue to try, and sat silently for a while, then put away the Qian Kun reincarnation disc, and carefully put the He Huan Ling back into Bi Yao's hand.
He stared deeply at Baguio's peaceful face, ten years later, she is still so beautiful, just like when we met at the beginning of the year, even the faint smile on the corner of her mouth can bring back countless deep memories in his mind. Engraved memories.
Only, only the coldness of her skin at the tentacles, coldly reminding Gui Li that reality is different from the past.
Ghost Li stood up silently, took a deep look at Bi Yao, the corner of his mouth moved, but he didn't say anything, then he turned around slowly, and left the ice room.
Outside the ice stone chamber, the passage was still empty. Ghost Li walked slowly along the passage, and the cracks on the stone walls on both sides of the passage seemed to be more and deeper, but in Ghost Li's eyes, none of these left a momentary reaction. He just walked silently.
Behind Gui Li, in the other direction of the passage, in a shadowy corner, the Ghost King stood silently watching the young man go further and further away. The King of Ghosts didn't go forward to ask Gui Li about the situation in the cold ice stone room, for so many years, he could already know the situation of Baguio from Gui Li's casual movements and expressions.
Is there no hope after all
A trace of sadness flashed across the ghost king's face, he turned around and walked into the darkness.
When he reappeared, he had already appeared in the blood pool deep in the cave, and slowly walked to the platform of the blood pool, just as he thought, the black figure of Mr. Ghost was still standing there alone, Thinking hard, the Fulong cauldron in the mid-air was also suspended in the same way, but under the shining red blood light all over the sky, one could vaguely see the mysterious white beam of light on the ancient tripod, which seemed to be much brighter than before, and the ancient The devil's face on Ding Ding's body lost a bit of blood, and became even more distorted and hideous.
Suddenly, an inexplicable anger rose in the ghost king's heart, and he couldn't help but clenched his hands. His beloved daughter hadn't improved, and now even the four spirit blood array, which had spent so much effort, was stagnant because of some inexplicable ancient magic prohibition.
Mr. Ghost in front seemed to feel something, moved his body, and slowly turned around. Through the black veil covering his face, he said calmly: "You are here."
The ghost king took a few deep breaths, and then slowly suppressed the anger and murderous intent in his heart, his face returned to normal, walked over, and said, "What's the matter, can you think of any solution?"
Mr. Ghost silently shook his head.
Although he had expected this answer, another burst of anger still appeared in the ghost king's heart. Recently, he seems to be particularly prone to anger and murderous intentions. If Mr. Ghost is not an indispensable figure in mobilizing the four spirit blood formations, the ghost king may really attack him.
Naturally, the change in the ghost king's expression could not escape Mr. Ghost's eyes, but Mr. Ghost didn't seem to care about it at all, he just said indifferently: "Give me some more time, you have been waiting for so long, so what if you wait a little longer ?”
The ghost king was shocked, as if he was startled. After a while, he regained his composure, nodded slowly and said: "You are right." After speaking, he hesitated for a while, as if he also realized that his expression was a little too much, forced a smile After a while, he said: "Gui Li and I have treated Bi Yao these few days, but it's still the same, I'm in a bad mood, don't worry about it."
Mr. Ghost shook his head, and said: "Father and daughter love each other deeply, I understand." He paused, turned around slowly, and looked at the Fulong Cauldron suspended in mid-air, especially the mysterious beam of light , and at the same time casually said: "Miss Baguio is still not improving, I have tried all kinds of methods these years!"
The Ghost King sighed, and said: "That's it. Although Gui Li and I don't get along very well, he has nothing to say about his love for Bi Yao. Recently, he found another one from somewhere. The weird magic weapon came to save Baguio, but the first time it seemed to have some effect, it could echo with He Huanling, but at the critical moment of the day, the divine power of the underground blood formation suddenly activated, and after a sudden change, it was no longer effective …”
The ghost king said inattentively, dazed, thinking of his daughter lying on the ice stone platform again in his mind, his heart ached so badly that he didn't even realize that Mr. Ghost beside him heard the back, his body suddenly trembled, as if his whole body froze. Living.
After a while, Mr. Ghost's voice seemed to be as flat as before, and he said quietly: "Oh? What does that treasure that Ghost Li brought look like?"
The ghost king was still a little sad, and said casually: "It looks like a jade plate, it looks quite gentle, and there are some strange patterns engraved on it. The strangest thing is that there are many small jade pieces in the middle of the jade plate, with strange characters on them. Not to mention, they slide endlessly on their own, and they never collide with each other... "
When the Ghost King said this, he frowned suddenly, and said to Mr. Ghost, "Why are you suddenly interested in this matter?"
With his back turned to him, Mr. Ghost still looked up and stared at the Fulongding cauldron suspended in mid-air. After a long silence, he only heard him say quietly: "It's nothing, I just asked casually."
