Zhu Xian

Chapter 29: thaumaturgy

Views:

It was late at night again.

Zhang Xiaofan tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, even the monkey Xiaohui beside him opened his eyes wide, blinking at him, as for the other seniors, they were already snoring loudly, even Rhubarb, fell asleep on the ground at this moment.

The moonlight is like water, shining in from the window, and sprinkled on the ground like frost and snow.

Zhang Xiaofan got up quietly, Xiao Hui immediately jumped into his arms, Zhang Xiaofan hugged it, patted its head, and walked out.

The corridor is clear and quiet.

He smiled wryly to himself, since he arrived at Tongtian Peak, he has almost never had a good night's sleep. Thinking of the competition with Lu Xueqi tomorrow, he still felt unspeakably nervous.

At this moment, the monkey Xiao Hui in his arms suddenly moved uneasily, Zhang Xiaofan looked at it, and saw Xiao Hui's clever eyes looking at the shadow ahead under the moonlight.

In the darkness, there seemed to be a figure flashing past.

Zhang Xiaofan's heart moved, he followed.

The figure didn't run fast, and while running, its shoulders seemed to keep shaking, and it seemed to be crying. Looking from a distance, Zhang Xiaofan recognized Tian Ling'er, felt even more strange, at the same time, seeing his senior sister crying, felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Tian Linger ran straight to the sea of clouds, came to the edge of the ring in the center, saw that there was no one around, as if she couldn't bear it anymore, she squatted on the ground and cried out.

Zhang Xiaofan has never seen his senior sister so sad, his mind was in a trance, he walked to her side slowly, and called out in a low voice: "Senior sister, you..."

Tian Linger was startled, jumped up and turned around, seeing it was Zhang Xiaofan, she was relieved, then her heart was sore again, she couldn't help but threw herself into Zhang Xiaofan's arms, crying loudly on his shoulder.

Zhang Xiaofan's body froze in an instant, his whole body was petrified, he couldn't move anymore.

Her sobs echoed in her ears, and she felt the faint warmth of her body from her shoulders, as if the scene that was often seen in dreams actually happened today. A faint fragrance came faintly.

Zhang Xiaofan just stood like this, looking into the distance, even though there were countless thoughts in his mind to hug this woman, he finally didn't.

Maybe, if I really hug you, life will be different from now on, right

At this moment, Tian Linger left his shoulder. Zhang Xiaofan felt empty in his heart, vaguely felt that he had lost something.

His shoulders were wet with tears.

Tian Linger rubbed her red eyes with her hands, saw Zhang Xiaofan's shoulders wet from her own crying, blushed, and said: "I'm sorry, Xiaofan."

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, said: "Senior sister, what's wrong with you."

Tian Ling'er was about to speak, but heard something "squeak" under her feet, looked down, but Xiao Hui followed. She silently bent down and hugged Xiao Hui in her arms.

"It's never happened, Xiaofan, it's never happened." Standing in the dark night and moonlight, the woman looked sad and beautiful, and said to Zhang Xiaofan with a bit of sadness: "Father and mother never scolded me like that. "

Looking at that beautiful face in grief, Zhang Xiaofan felt a tearing pain in his heart, as if her sadness was brought to her by himself. He forced himself to stabilize his mind, and said softly: "Senior Sister, what's wrong? Why did Master and Mistress scold you?"

Tian Linger hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Zhang Xiaofan, since childhood, this little junior has always been her closest playmate besides her parents, at this moment, in her heart, she seemed to vaguely think of a thought: Junior Brother Xiaofan When did you start to be so gentle to me

However, this thought just passed by in a flash, her heart was full of sadness at the moment, and she finally cried to Zhang Xiaofan: "It's not all because of Big Brother Qihao!"

Zhang Xiaofan's face turned pale, he clenched his fist involuntarily, he clenched so tightly that his nails pierced deeply into his palm.

"You don't know yet, do you?" Once Tian Linger opened the conversation, she no longer had any defense against this little junior, but Zhang Xiaofan shouted in her heart: "I know, I know, I already knew! "

The moonlight is cold and sprinkles the world.

"Senior brother Qihao and I are in love with each other. I told them that I really, really like him." Tian Linger calmed down a little, but she didn't notice that every time she said a word, Zhang Xiaofan's face He lost a bit of blood.

"...But Dad scolded me loudly, saying that I was ignorant, and even my mother who always loved me changed her face and stood by Dad's side. How could this be, Xiaofan?"

Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head, not to let Tian Linger see his face, and said in a low voice: "Master, how could Master know?"

Tian Linger was emotionally agitated, she didn't notice any flaws and strangeness in Zhang Xiaofan's words, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she almost cried again: "I didn't expect it at first, but I found out later that it was Senior Sister Wenmin from Xiaozhufeng who lived with me who told me Sister Shuiyue and Uncle Shuiyue told my mother again. Senior Sister Wenmin and I are so close, I told them many times, but they still said it, I, I... "

Her eyes were sour, and tears finally flowed out.

Zhang Xiaofan said shyly: "Maybe Master and Mistress are doing it for your own good, they are your parents, they will never treat you badly!"

Tian Linger wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said loudly: "What do they know! They only understand the views of sects, only know that big brother Qihao is the proud disciple of Master Cangsong of Longshou Peak, and only know that if big brother Qihao and I get along well They will not be able to hold their heads up in the Qingyun Sect, and they have never thought about me."

She said with a bit of sadness, anger, and even decisiveness: "Compared with my happiness, those faces are nothing. I really doubt whether they value face or my daughter?"

Zhang Xiaofan suddenly raised his head, looking at this senior sister who suddenly became unfamiliar.

What a sad look that is!

Hesitant and helpless, standing alone in the wind and rain like a bird that lost its parents, with a trace of panic in its grief, it pierced into his soul like a knife!

Zhang Xiaofan was defeated by this look almost immediately, a never-before-seen sadness rose from his heart, if he could bear the pain of this moment for this woman, he would be willing to bear it no matter what kind of difficulties, but he But I didn't know what to say, so I could only say in a low voice: "Senior Sister!"

"I want to be with him." Tian Linger said resolutely. Rather than saying it to Zhang Xiaofan, it would be better to say that she said it to her heart, to Tian Buyi and his wife who are not here: "I must be with Senior Brother Qihao, we have sworn to each other, even if parents don't No matter how much you object, we will be together even if we wait until the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten."

She looked up at the night sky and swore to the bright moon. The cold moonlight shines quietly on her body, she is as beautiful as a lily blooming in the night with sadness, people are dazzled by her beauty and forget the desolate and heart-dead heart beside her. shadow.

※※※

Standing on a high place, the rising sun shone warmly on Zhang Xiaofan's body, warming his body but not his heart. He stood expressionlessly on the ring, facing Lu Xueqi, who was standing opposite him, who was as beautiful as a fairy.

The contempt in the Frost woman's eyes was so obvious, everyone in the square knew that he entered the top four mainly by luck rather than strength.

Behind her, Tianya exudes a faint blue light. Looking at this legendary fetish, Zhang Xiaofan thought faintly: After a while, will he be facing it

Then, he forgot about the question for a moment, and since he came back from last night, his spirit has been ups and downs in a trance.

Above the sea of clouds, there are only two big arenas left at the moment, but judging by the number of Qingyun disciples watching, the number of people watching the competition between Qihao and Zeng Shushu in the west is probably less than 30% of that here. The energetic Lu Xueqi and the lucky Zhang Xiaofan were attracted here.

Among the elders, most of them, including Master Daoxuan, also sat under this ring.

However, when the crowd saw Lu Xueqi on the stage, after a round of cheers, most of the crowd was discussing whether Zhang Xiaofan would lose in a breath or in an instant.

In the audience, Tian Buyi frowned, even though he knew Zhang Xiaofan's background quite clearly, but hearing people's scornful comments behind him still made him very uncomfortable. But Suru who was sitting beside him was looking around to find her daughter.

There was a big quarrel last night, Tian Linger ran away crying, and disappeared early this morning, based on her understanding of her daughter as a mother, I am afraid that this stubborn daughter may have gone to Qihao's competition ring.

She shook her head, although she loved her only daughter very much, but this time she was completely on her husband's side, perhaps this was the instinct of a mother!

She always felt that the people in Longshou Peak were not very nice.

She turned her head and looked at the stage, at the same time, Zhang Xiaofan on the stage also looked over expressionlessly, their eyes met in the air, after a while, Zhang Xiaofan looked around her, as if he didn't find what he was looking for People, silently retracted their gazes.

Suru frowned slightly, and said to Tian Buyi: "Xiaofan's expression today is a bit wrong, he seems to be lifeless."

Tian Buyi said indifferently: "He's just nervous, it's not surprising that a child has never seen the world."

Suru fell silent and didn't speak any more.

Zhang Xiaofan withdrew his gaze, and fell on Lu Xueqi's face opposite, that beautiful face in the rising sun was radiant and radiant, very quickly, Lu Xueqi felt Zhang Xiaofan's gaze, and disdain appeared in her eyes again.

But this time, Zhang Xiaofan didn't evade any more, he didn't even feel the sarcasm on the other side, that beautiful face was completely meaningless to him at this moment, only deep in his heart, he was thinking softly and painfully. One sentence: "She's not here, she went to see Qi Hao's competition!"

As clever as Lu Xueqi, she quickly discovered that this opponent was only looking at her, but in his empty eyes, she was clearly thinking of other things and completely ignored her own existence. This was almost the first experience in her life, and there seemed to be a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"when!"

Bells and cauldrons rang together, echoing on Tongtian Peak. The surroundings quickly fell silent.

Lu Xueqi straightened her body and took a deep breath. As long as she wins two more games, just two more games, she can realize her dream and the expectations of her teacher. Tianya was behind her, and the blue light gradually brightened.

"Little Bamboo Peak disciple Lu Xueqi, please enlighten me."

Zhang Xiaofan seemed to wake up from a dream, but his first reaction was not to return the gift, but to look towards the audience with great expectations, there, people's heads were shaking, everyone was watching, but there was no figure of the person he wanted to see.

Lu Xueqi's complexion changed, and Qingyun's disciples in the audience were in an uproar. This was the first person to be so rude to Lu Xueqi. Tian Buyi and Suru looked at each other, and at the same time, they both realized that there was something really wrong with this little disciple today. .

Zhang Xiaofan turned his head slowly, his face was ashen, and he said calmly: "I am Zhang Xiaofan from Big Bamboo Peak, please don't be merciful, senior sister."

Lu Xueqi was stunned, although what she said before the competition was just polite words, but this Xiaofan looks very strange, no one would say anything merciless, it sounds like sarcasm, but it doesn't look like him.

After all, Lu Xueqi is Master Shuiyue's proud disciple, her determination is firm, her expression on her face remains the same, and she doesn't say anything more, when she compares her right hand, "Tianya" behind her slowly rises.

Zhang Xiaofan watched the blue light getting deeper and bigger, and his body was tinged with blue, but he couldn't find any tension anymore, instead, deep in his heart, he was vaguely looking forward to something .

He took out the black and ugly fire stick.

There was a burst of laughter from the audience. Compared with the majestic, noble and immortal "Tianya" on the opposite side, the fire stick is like an ugly bug on the ground.

But at this moment, it was still a heartbroken bug.

The cold feeling filled the whole body again. For some reason, today the fire stick seemed to be very excited, and the speed of the cold feeling was much faster than before.

Zhang Xiaofan even felt that if he hadn't had a flesh and blood connection with the fire stick, if he hadn't held the fire stick, it would have rushed towards Lu Xueqi by itself.

No, it should not be towards Lu Xueqi, but towards Tianya, that kind of inexplicable feeling, like two enemies who hate each other deeply.

At this moment, Lu Xueqi's complexion suddenly changed, Tianya's light was too bright, it seemed that she herself was a little strange too!

But Zhang Xiaofan didn't want to think about it, he looked at the beautiful woman in the blue light, and suddenly found that she looked like a senior sister, but the "senior sister" looked at him coldly with cold eyes.

On the ring, something unexpected happened, Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi didn't make a move, they just stared at each other, motionless.

There was an uproar in the audience, and there were many discussions.

Lu Xueqi woke up suddenly, Tianya, who had always been connected with her spiritually, suddenly experienced a strange movement that she had never seen before, which made her feel strange, but when she checked Tianya with her thoughts, there was nothing unusual, it just seemed that Tianya had a faint desire to try. Feel.

Sensing countless strange gazes from the audience, Lu Xueqi frowned, gathered herself together, let out a cold snort, pushed all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts out of her mind, and gave a soft scold, Tianya's blue light was in full bloom, soaring into the sky, but she still didn't get out of her sheath.

Since the beginning of the Qimai Martial Arts Competition, Tianya has become the focus of everyone's attention, but until now, Lu Xueqi has defeated all opponents one by one without sheathing her sheath. sword. At this time, everyone guessed that it must be the final battle, with Qi Hao's level of cultivation of Longshoufeng, this can be done!

The blue light was reflected on Zhang Xiaofan's face, but he couldn't show his expression, the black fire stick gave off a faint blue light, slowly left his palm, and stopped in front of him.

Even though they have seen the fire stick before, it is the first time for everyone in Dazhu Peak, including most of the onlookers, to see Zhang Xiaofan cast a spell.

Du Bishu snorted, and said: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that my little junior who was still stupid two years ago suddenly turned into a natural genius."

On the stage, Lu Xueqi's face was serious, her magic formula was tightly held like a mountain, she saw Tianya, who was shining brightly in mid-air, suddenly turned around, and rushed towards Zhang Xiaofan with the momentum of cutting mountains and seas.

The fire stick immediately went up to meet it, and the dark blue light collided with the ten thousand zhang blue light in mid-air, the aura seemed to be fearless.

The next moment, everyone was stunned, Zhang Xiaofan looked vulnerable, as if he had been seriously injured, he flew backwards, the fire stick lost its color, and Hei Huhu circled in the air and flew back to the direction of his master .

All of a sudden, the people in Dazhufeng stood up, and the impatient ones like Du Bishu and others even cried out.

Zhang Xiaofan bumped his back against the pillars of the ring, fell down, his throat was sweet, a mouthful of blood spewed out, sprinkled on the fire stick that flew back, it was a bit bloody, and then, when no one saw him , Zhang Xiaofan's blood seeped in quickly.

Tianya was so powerful that everyone was stunned!

Lu Xueqi's face was as cold as frost, and without hesitation, a blue light flashed, and Tianya slashed down mercilessly in mid-air.

At this moment, black air suddenly evaporated on the fire stick, especially at the top of the stick, the blue light was even more intense, Zhang Xiaofan stood up slowly with bloodshot eyes, his face was pale but his eyes were bloodshot, his appearance unexpectedly brought Kind of hideous.

Sooner or later, the fire stick rushed towards Tianya again in the black air and green light, once the two magic weapons touched in mid-air, they immediately bounced off each other, Lu Xueqi and Zhang Xiaofan standing behind were both shocked.

In mid-air, blue light flickered, blue light was brilliant, flying across the air, wherever it went, the originally extremely hard giant trees on the ring were scattered like confetti, and the sound was as loud as a thunderbolt from the blue sky, deafening.

The nearly thousand Qingyun sect members who watched were all indifferent. Since the start of the big test, there has never been a match like today. It was so fierce at the beginning, and the scene was even less magnificent than today. The magic weapon was dismantled in sevens and eights.

The onlookers in the audience stepped back for a certain distance, and saw that Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi were already floating in mid-air at this moment, Lu Xueqi was holding the formula in both hands, controlling it with all her strength, her posture was serious and elegant.

But looking at Zhang Xiaofan, it seems a bit weird, although the power of the fire stick is beyond everyone's expectation, he didn't hold the formula like Lu Xueqi, instead he was dancing in the air, and the fire stick followed suit His mind was as swift as lightning, and he had a great time fighting with Tianya.

Even so, Zhang Xiaofan felt bitter in his heart, Tianya's power was far beyond his imagination, every time the fire stick collided with Tianya, the meridians in his whole body would be shaken violently, if it hadn't been for him since he was a child Outside Taiji Xuanqing Dao, he secretly practiced Tianyin Temple's "Da Fan Prajna" kung fu. His meridians are strengthened. At the same time, with Da Fan Prajna protecting him, he barely resisted Tianya's divine power, and he vomited blood and died long ago.

But looking at Lu Xueqi in front of her, there was nothing unusual. Tianya was under her control, the blue light became more and more intense, and her power became stronger and stronger, gradually suppressing the blue light and black energy of the fire stick.

In this room, Zhang Xiaofan kept complaining, but on the other side, Lu Xueqi was quite surprised, the other party's unattractive fire-burning stick magic weapon actually had spiritual power that could rival Tianya, and also seemed to have a faint sucking power, all the time It is no longer attracting the spiritual power and blood in his body. If it is not for the solid foundation, I am afraid that it will not be able to suppress the blood churning in the body first.

Thinking of this, Lu Xueqi's heart was surging again, her body floating in mid-air almost lost her balance, she was frightened, angry and anxious. Judging from the situation of the fight, she intuitively found that the opponent's practice on Taiji Xuanqing Dao was actually not good enough. Not high, far inferior to himself, but for some reason he used this strange magic weapon to be so powerful, even Tianya could only gain the upper hand on the surface.

Lu Xueqi gritted her silver teeth, her face became pale, her clothes fluttered in the wind, she saw Tianya hit the firestick hard in midair, Zhang Xiaofan's whole body was shaken, and the firestick slowed down for a moment.

Taking advantage of this time, Tianya suddenly flew back, Lu Xueqi reached out her right hand quickly, and held Tianya.

The moment her jade-like palm touched Tianya, a flash of blue light engulfed her figure, Tianya's sword shook, making a loud noise like a dragon's chant, and it swung up to the sky, Lu Xueqi seemed to be with her Tianya's swords merged into one, soaring into the sky, straight up to the blue sky.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan had already forgotten anything outside his body, he only felt that the feeling of flesh and blood connection between himself and the fire stick in front of him in mid-air became stronger and stronger, he even felt that the fire stick was like a living thing, he was very excited at this moment, An inexplicable evil spirit rushed straight into his mind.

He was in mid-air, looking up to the sky and screaming.

The sound moves the four fields, and the world changes color!

Black blue light, straight up to the sky, the wind is strong, and the clouds are boiling!

Suddenly, a blue light flashed, and a scream grew from far to near, from inaudible to inaudible, until it was so deafening that people could no longer hear any sound.

Thousands of blue lights, at this moment, unexpectedly merged into one huge beam of light and struck down head-on. Seeing this momentum, it almost wanted to cut the Qingyun Mountain Range into two halves.

Zhang Xiaofan's face was distorted, all five sense organs and seven orifices were bleeding suddenly, but seeing his expression, he didn't show the slightest fear, his eyes were piercing, he also stretched out his hand to grab the fire stick, instantly filled the sky with blue light and black air In his hand, he directly faced the blue beam of light rushing downward.

In the periphery, the young Qingyun disciples held their breath and looked straight ahead, no one showed any contempt towards Zhang Xiaofan, and among the elders of the older generation, their faces also changed.

This competition was actually a battle of life and death.

But for some reason, no one came out to stop it

"Boom", like thunder in the sky, blasted the world, as if the entire Tongtian Peak trembled violently, the blue light turned back, Lu Xueqi appeared in the sky, holding Tianya tightly, but a stream of blood slowly flowed out from her mouth .

Under the stage, Master Shuiyue suddenly stood up.

In mid-air, only the sound of howling wind could be heard in Zhang Xiaofan's ears, his eyes were blurred, the bright red blood almost covered his eyes. If he could hear the shouts from the outside world, he would have heard the exclamations of everyone on the Great Bamboo Peak below him.

Suru's lips lost their color, looked at the little apprentice who had almost turned into a blood man in mid-air, and hurriedly said to Tian Buyi in a low voice: "Bu Yi, let Xiaofan admit defeat, quickly let him admit defeat."

Tian Buyi shook his body, stared at the mid-air, and slowly shook his head.

Feeling no pain anymore, Zhang Xiaofan was in that ever-changing sky, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, he even suddenly thought: After I die, will Senior Sister come to see me! Many years later, when she lived a happy life, did she also forget me

He reached out and wiped the blood and water from the corners of his eyes!

Lu Xueqi only felt severe pain all over her body, and the qi and blood in her body clashed everywhere in the violently vibrating meridians, as if she was about to break out of her body, cheering and rushing towards the ferocious demon in the terrifying blue light and black air ahead.

This is the moment of life and death!

This is an eternal moment!

This beautiful woman stood proudly in the strong wind, even though the wind was as strong as a knife, she refused to retreat even a little bit. She raised her head and looked up at the sky.

The wind stopped suddenly and froze in mid-air.

The world suddenly became quiet and stopped at this moment.

"Boom!" The low roar seemed to come from the sky, echoing throughout the world.

Lu Xueqi backhanded and pulled out the "Tianya Divine Sword".

Immediately, the blue light all over the sky dissipated and shrank, as if sucking water like a giant dragon, it was sucked onto the blade like autumn water.

On Tongtian Peak, there was silence!

Legend has it that the thousand-year-old Tianya has finally come out of her sheath!

Lu Xueqi's face was as cold as frost, holding the sword formula in her hand, she actually stepped on the seven-star position in the air, walked seven steps in a row in the air, the long sword pierced the sky suddenly, Yuyan lost a trace of blood in an instant, and chanted the mantra: " Nine Heavens Profound Brake, turned into divine thunder. Brilliant heavenly power, lead it with a sword!"

In a short while, the originally clear blue sky turned dark, and the dark clouds that suddenly appeared in the sky continued to churn, thunder rumbled, and there were continuous lightning flashes on the edge of the black clouds.

The strong wind blows towards his face, Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth slightly, this scene seems to have appeared once in the memory long ago.

On the ground, from Reverend Daoxuan to the head elders of each branch, all of them had inexplicable horror on their faces. They all stood up and turned to look at Master Shuiyue at Xiaozhufeng.

After a while, Tian Buyi said shyly, "What a good disciple you have taught!"

Master Shuiyue completely ignored the crowd, worry appeared for the first time on his usually indifferent face, and he looked at the two people in the sky.

"Excalibur and Lightning Control Technique!"

Reverend Daoxuan slowly withdrew his gaze, his heart was greatly shaken, he never thought that there would be such a remarkable talent among the younger generation under Qingyun sect.

However, looking at the female disciple's face, although she tried her best to perform this kind of unrivaled thaumaturgy, her body was trembling and her face was as white as paper. I'm afraid she couldn't do what she wanted.

In the sky, the thunder became more and more urgent, Zhang Xiaofan could clearly feel that from the moment Tianya got out of the sheath, an incomparable power rose from the fire stick in his hand, like this magic weapon connected with his flesh and blood from A deep cry in the heart.

As if it had been waiting for this moment for thousands of years!

The sky was even darker, dark clouds overwhelmed the top, and a huge vortex slowly appeared in the thick clouds.
