The morning glow rendered the entire sky like a flame, and the top and bottom of the Xuanwu Peak seemed to be covered with a layer of red, making this majestic mountain peak also give birth to a sense of charm.
The small cangfeng on its side is already beautiful, but at this time, it is more like a girl wearing a hijab, quietly waiting for the morning sun to rise.
Shao Heng tossed and turned all night, and arrived at Zhou Zi'an's residence on Xiaocang Peak early in the morning.
Zhou Zi'an Cave Mansion is magnificent, and the Taoist maids come and go like flowing water, offering extremely rich flowers and fruits tea, showing the luxury of the disciples of the family.
Shao Heng sat silently for a while, and Zhou Zi'an was late with his fan, his handsome eyes narrowed slightly, and he yawned: "I have been practicing for most of the night, and I have just fallen asleep and rested for a long time. You guy...... On weekdays, it is nowhere to be seen, and when it comes, it disturbs people's dreams. โ
Shao Heng laughed dryly, and only touched the tea that Dao Tong had just made in his hand and took a sip.
The hot and aura tea entered his abdomen, turning into a warm mass and spreading out from his body, dispelling the chill revealed by Shao Heng, making him feel slightly refreshed, and it seemed that even those worries had dissipated a lot.
"Good tea!" Shao Heng sincerely admired.
Zhou Zi'an closed half of his eyes, and the remaining one looked at Shao Heng half-openly, and said, "What's wrong with you, it seems like you haven't rested for a long time." I know that you are diligent, and 365 days a year are spent in retreat and cultivation, but don't work too hard. Look at me......"
Zhou Zi'an was served by a beautiful maid to drink tea and rinse her mouth, and then slowly tasted tea, and finally sighed comfortably and said: "The road to immortality is long, isn't it good to take your time like me?"
Shao Heng secretly thought to himself in his heart: You were born in the Yunhe Zhou family, and you have the full support of the family behind you to support financial and material resources, so you can naturally live like this.
Zhou Zi'an saw that Shao Heng was noncommittal, and he also knew that the friends he made when he was outside the door were not all the way to himself after all. Although the Zhou family has been based in Shenzhou for so many years, it is natural that he and the general family have done something and not done something.
However, in the final analysis, if Cunweishan and Zhou faced a huge and irreconcilable contradiction at the same time, Zhou Zi'an's choice would definitely not be as easy as that of disciples like Shao Heng or Shen Yuanxi.
Regarding this, Zhou Zi'an has long seen it.
Shao Heng is not a person who can be easily wooed, and it is impossible to make such a person bow his head and do things for the Zhou family.
What Zhou Zi'an wants is just to make friends and not make enemies.
It's just that Zhou Zi'an didn't know if it was his own illusion, and after seeing Shao Heng who came out of retreat a few years later, he felt that the other party seemed to be getting closer to Nangong Beidou.
This made Zhou Zi Anxin quite dissatisfied.
"You came so early today, but what is the matter with me?" Zhou Zi'an sat on the chair like a boneless, and asked Shao Heng seemingly casually.
Shao Heng glanced at the Dao Tong maids standing around him and did not speak.
Zhou Zi'an narrowed his eyes when he saw this, and waved his hand to let these people leave the cave: "What?"
"Zi'an, have you encountered any strange people or things in the Lingji Cave Heaven?" Shao Heng said.
Naturally, he didn't directly ask Zhou Zi'an if he had paid attention to Fu Anning's life and death, and immediately decided to start from other places and do it slowly.
It's just that Shao Heng's "big stake" look confused Zhou Zi'an very well.
Zhou Zi was relieved, and the mountain and river fan "snapped" on the arm of the chair that exuded a simple fragrance, and his expression became solemn: "What's the matter?
"Also?" Shao Heng immediately grasped the word, his eyes revealing a bit of inquiry.
Zhou Zi'an thought about this matter and reported it to Shizun and Shizu, but Tailu Zhenren didn't have any other instructions for a while, but this was not something to hide, so he said: "After Artesian Flame Mountain, I traveled in the desert with Senior Brother Lu for a long time, and met several senior sisters in Nixia Mountain. The senior sister Jin Liulijin looked like she was seriously injured, and the rest of the senior sisters were either panicked or babbling nonsense, as if something terrible had happened. โ
Shao Heng's heart moved when he heard this: Could it be that the enemies encountered by those women in Nixia Mountain were those strange people?
Sure enough, Zhou Zi'an continued: "They said that they were attacked by the enemy, but whether the enemy was a human or a monster, they couldn't say. The appearance is different from that of the human race, but there is no demonic power on the body, and it does not look like a demon spirit in the Lingji Cave Heaven. When attacking them, it uses an extremely strange energy. Senior Brother Lu and I didn't see it with our own eyes, but it was indeed very strange to see that Senior Sister Jin's injuries. โ
Shao Heng had fought with those people, but the other party was not his opponent, so he didn't know about it: "How weird?"
"There was nothing unusual about the wound, but no amount of magic could make it heal, and the blood would not stop. And there is a strange energy, the power of the obstruction pill in Senior Sister Jin's body. Zhou Zi'an smiled bitterly: "Senior Brother Lu and I have no choice, and we can't leave them behind, so we have to move forward with them." When they reached the place where the soldier's soul wandered, he could no longer move forward. โ
"Alas!" Zhou Zi'an nodded his chin with a mountain and river fan and sighed: "At that time, I knew that my cultivation was insufficient, otherwise if I learned a few more techniques, maybe I could help Senior Brother Lu share some of the burden at that time, and it would not be that he was still recuperating in the cave mansion." You see, I've been a lot more diligent these days than I used to be...... Hmm, why do I think I can't see through you anymore?"
Zhou Zi'an wanted to show off the results of his cultivation in the past few days in front of Shao Heng, but he couldn't help blurting out when he saw that Shao Heng's cultivation was virtual and real, like clouds and mist.
Shao Heng was too eye-catching in order not to make his knot pill cause everyone to know, and since Duan Jingcheng reminded him, he used the Heavenly Illusion Bead to cover up his true cultivation, which was similar to before the knot.
However, Rao is like this, there is still a gap in his cultivation before and after entering the Lingji Cave Heaven, and Zhou Zi'an still notices the difference at a glance.
Shao Heng nodded indifferently, and said, "What's wrong with Senior Brother Lu?"
"Ahem! It's not because of the Lingji Cave Heaven Vitality riot......" Zhou Zi'an saw that Shao Heng didn't answer about the cultivation, and he didn't rest assured, anyway, the gap was already there, and he could still see it: "Senior Sister Jin is seriously injured, and the rest of the female disciples are not high in cultivation, and my magic is not refined, so I can only use Senior Brother Lu to consume the true yuan to resist the impact of that qi for everyone, and the loss is a little terrible." Fortunately, everyone has no worries about their lives......"
When Zhou Zi'an said this, his voice was cut off, obviously remembering Fu Anning who couldn't come back with them.
The splendid cave was full of brilliance, but it fell into silence for a while.
After half a ring, Zhou Zi'an said: "At that time, the Lingji Cave Heaven was closed, and you, Senior Sister Ning, and Senior Brother Fu were nowhere to be seen. Don't you know that Uncle Taihao's expression at that time...... Nangong Beidou's kid also had red eyes, as if he was going to eat someone. I heard that Senior Brother Fu died, and we are all worried about you and Senior Sister Ning. Luckily, you're back. I heard that I fell into somewhere, Uncle Qingyan went to save you as soon as his injuries were healed, but why did it take you so long to return to the mountain?"
Shao Heng briefly mentioned that he went to Kunlun Mountain, but he didn't say it explicitly, and chatted with Zhou Zi'an for a while, except for being very surprised after learning about Fu Anning's death and the cause of death, there was no news about the rest.
Before leaving Zhou Zi'an's cave mansion, Shao Heng thought that although he and Zhou Zi'an were not close friends who shared life and death, they were also friends who fought side by side from the outer gate to worship the inner gate. Although there are differences in some concepts between the two, Zhou Zi'an, a disciple of the family, has really helped him a lot, so he has the heart to remind: "It has been stormy recently, Zi'an should be cautious." โ
After Shao Heng finished speaking, he left, leaving Zhou Zi'an chewing on these ten words, his face changed from inattentive to confused and finally indifferent.
He shook his fan, looked up at the bright pearl above his head, his eyes flashed, and muttered: "The wind and rain in this world...... And when will it be less?"
Shao Heng, who left Xiaocang Peak, did not stay, and went directly to Shouxin Peak, where Lu Ji was located.
Shouxin Peak is one of the main side peaks of Mingxin, but compared with the brilliant Mingxin Peak, bathed in the sun, most of the place is blocked by the tall Mingxin Peak, which looks a little secluded.
Although Shao Heng speculated from Zhou Zi'an's words that Lu Ji tried his best to resist the impact of the qi machine for everyone at that time, he was afraid that he didn't have the heart to check the life and death of the rest of the people on the jade, but he was always unwilling to go to the last trip to test it in person.
Zhou Zi'an said that Lu Ji was very bad, but what Shao Heng didn't expect was that almost a month had passed, but Lu Ji's face was even more ugly than that of a mortal sick man.
"Senior Brother Lu...... What are you ......" Shao Heng couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Lu Ji's haggard face like a sick ghost: "How can this be?" Zi'an didn't say that he just lost his true yuan, you have been recuperating recently, hasn't there been any improvement?"
The Lu Ji in front of him is completely different from the Lu Ji that Shao Heng met at the beginning of the outer gate examination.
Although Lu Ji was not as handsome as Shen Yuanxi at the beginning, he was also a young man with a gentle face and extraordinary bearing. However, at this time, Lu Ji seemed to be ten years old in an instant, his originally fair skin became sallow and dull, his eye sockets and cheeks were sunken, and his eyes and tone were tired.
"Nothing...... It's because I can't adjust properly, and there was something wrong with my practice. Lu Ji spoke extremely slowly, as if every word required him to exert a lot of effort.
I don't know if it's Shao Heng's own delusion, or if Lu Ji's spirit is really very poor, since the two met, Lu Ji's eyes have hardly met Shao Heng.
Either look to the side, or throw yourself to the ground.
"Senior Brother Lu, although something happened to Xiaolang Villa, Master Ouyang may be a little inconvenient, but Ouyang Nan Gongzi is definitely willing to treat you for a treat. No matter how bad it is, do you have a message to Uncle Qing Fang?" Shao Heng saw that Lu Ji's expression was really ugly, and he couldn't help but persuade.
"Thank you for reminding me, I know. A flash of complicated emotions flashed in Lu Ji's eyes, and he replied with some difficulty in his voice.
The individual exercises are different, and Shao Heng doesn't know what happened to Lu Ji's body, so he stopped talking, and turned to the same as Zhou Zi'an's side, and slowly turned the topic to Fu Anning.
Sure enough, Lu Ji didn't have the heart to look around at that time, and it was only after leaving the Lingji Cave that he learned of Fu Anning's death from Nangong Beidou.
After knowing this, Shao Heng saw that Lu Ji's spirit was getting worse and worse, so he also said goodbye and left.
