After a few seconds of stiffness, I put away the water dragon yin, raised my hand to light the lamp and candle next to me, and then looked at her with a complicated face: "Chen Yun, why are you here?"

Really, I never expected that I would meet Chen Yun again here, in this way.

I still clearly remember that after she was released from prison, my mood at that time can be described as mixed, to be honest, I loved her so much at the beginning, so much so that she did so many things later, and I received so much trauma in my heart.

But after letting her go, sometimes, occasionally to others, I thought I would let go of what I had done before, but at this moment, when I faced her again, I still couldn't calm down.

At this moment, I realized that some people, if they have lived in your heart, then after she leaves, you will always have her shadow in your heart.

"Lin Bai?"

At this moment, when I was in a complicated mood and looked at her, Chen Yun's original face was panicked, but after seeing me, she was also surprised and happy, and her delicate body trembled with excitement.

Then she got up and wanted to hug me, but feeling my attitude, she sat down again, smiled bitterly, and said: "I have been in the Xuanzi Continent, and one day after you let me go, I hated my previous actions very much, and decided to change my past mistakes and start over..."

"You are now a disciple of Su Wen Pavilion?" Hearing her words, I was very touched in my heart, and asked in a light tone.

Chen Yun nodded.

I frowned secretly: "But when I was on Crouching Tiger Mountain before, when I resisted those poisonous corpses, why didn't I see you?" As he spoke, the scene of seeing her during the day also appeared in my mind, when she was unconscious and was brought back by the disciples of Suwen Pavilion.

Moreover, the dress is not the same as that of the disciples of Suwen Pavilion.

Hearing me ask, Chen Yun fell silent.

In Chen Yun's heart, she should have told me the truth, but thinking of Shen Xingmeng's words before, Chen Yun hesitated.

She knew in her heart that my reputation in the Xuanzi Continent was very high at the moment, and I was especially reused by the royal family of Qingyun Country, because of the poisonous plague, many sects were very jealous of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, and I, Lin Bai, might be the same as those sects.

He had deeply hurt me before, and now Chen Yun didn't want to be despised by me because of the matter of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect.

Therefore, Chen Yun decided to hide his identity as a disciple of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.

"I was sent out by the master to do a mission before, so I dressed up in disguise, and then I encountered danger during the mission, and I was rescued by my classmates..."

I didn't have the slightest suspicion and nodded abruptly.

Then I smiled bitterly: "I thought you were a spy sent by the Youming Hidden Organization, so I came over to check, but I didn't expect it to be you, it seems that this is a misunderstanding." ”

"You rest, I'm leaving. Then I smiled at her and turned to leave.

"Lin Bai.." And at the moment when I turned around, Chen Yun's face flashed with a trace of melancholy, and she called me softly.

At that time, her tone was very gentle, my heart trembled faintly, and I stopped, but I didn't look back: "What's wrong?"

"I..." Chen Yun opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the words seemed to be stuck, and after a few seconds, she mustered up her courage, looked at my back, and asked softly, "Do you still hate me now?"

Really, when I heard this, my nose suddenly became a little sour, thinking of my father's death and my cousin's death, which had something to do with her directly or indirectly, but since I decided to let her go, do I have to care about it anymore?

"It's all over, what do I still hate you for?" At that moment, I sniffed, said in a very indifferent tone, and then walked out of the tent without looking back.

Hearing my words, Chen Yun watched my back disappear at the door of the tent in a daze, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.

And I, after returning to my resting place, lay down in bed, tossing and turning, thinking about what had happened a long time ago, and did not fall asleep until after the early hours of the morning.

The next morning, after receiving the news from us, the royal family of Qingyun Kingdom and the royal families of various princes and princes quickly sent elite soldiers to garrison them.

At this time, seeing that the situation was stable and the poisonous plague would not spread again for the time being, the four old men in white robes were about to leave.

And just as they were about to leave, I wanted to call out to the white-robed old man and ask him if he was from the Ji family of Dongaoshan, but before I could speak, Ji Rufeng took the lead and walked quickly to the white-robed old man.

"Third brother.." At that moment, the white-robed old man and Ji Rufeng were dozens of meters away from us, and Ji Rufeng's voice was very small and polite, but Nie Qianyu and I heard it very clearly.

Wow..

For a while, when they heard Ji Rufeng's name for the white-robed old man, everyone was in an uproar, and many people were stunned.

I also have a cloudy face, you know, from the appearance of the old man in the white robe to the present, Ji Rufeng has been very silent, and his performance is also very calm, so that people can't see what he has to do with the old man in the white robe.

And the white-robed old man didn't seem to have ever looked at Ji Rufeng, so everyone couldn't connect with the two of them.

Thirty years ago, when you escaped from the family without permission, you should know that you are no longer a member of the family, and the people of the family have nothing to do with you. ”

At this moment, when everyone was stunned, the white-robed old man looked at Ji Rufeng expressionlessly and said coldly.

At that moment, I could feel Ji Rufeng's embarrassment.

After being embarrassed for a few seconds, Ji Rufeng smiled, and said politely: "Third brother, I was forced to leave the family back then... I haven't seen you in so many years.."

The more Ji Rufeng spoke, the more emotional his expression became, as if he had recalled something, but before he could finish speaking, the white-robed old man waved his hand and interrupted: "Forget it, you have a chance to say these words to the patriarch." ”

After speaking, the figure of the white-robed old man flashed, and he went into the distance, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Ji Rufeng froze there, stunned for a few seconds, and then smiled bitterly.

At this time, the mysterious middle-aged man and the woman in the red dress also nodded to us and said goodbye. At that moment, I noticed that the young man in the gray robe, after the three of them had left, he looked in the direction in which the three of them were leaving, and pondered for more than ten seconds before leaving.

Subsequently, Ouyang Jingtian and the heads of other sects also came over one after another to say goodbye to us.

At that moment, when Shen Xingmeng said goodbye to us, I saw Chen Yun standing quietly behind her, I was very indifferent on the surface, but there was an undercurrent in my heart.

Chen Yun, I hope you really changed your ways this time and started anew.

I said to myself.

Chen Yun also kept looking at me, knowing that when she left, seeing that I didn't take the initiative to talk to her, her eyes showed a trace of loss, and she followed Shen Xingmeng and the others away.

After the various sects left, at this time, Ji Rufeng was stunned for a moment, and after coming back to his senses, his expression was a little lost, and he walked towards us, and when he was about to reach us, Nie Qianyu looked at him complicatedly: "It turns out that you..."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Ji Rufeng raised his hand to stop Nie Qianyu's words, looked around, and let a few guards on his side retreat into the distance, and then spoke: "Is it unexpected?"

As he spoke, his eyes turned to me, and he stopped talking.

It stands to reason that at this time, I should avoid it with interest, but I was too curious in my heart, especially for the Ji family in Dongao Mountain, so when I noticed Ji Rufeng's eyes, I still stood there with a cheeky face, without the slightest intention of leaving.

If I had stayed in the past, I would never have been so bold, you must know that Ji Rufeng is a royal worshipper, and his strength is unfathomable, he can easily abuse me with one finger.

But with Nie Qianyu by my side, I am naturally not worthy, on the other hand, because the empress was still there, the royal family issued a hunt and kill order for me, so when I saw Ji Rufeng, I was instinctively frightened, but now it is different, everyone is doing things for the empress, who is afraid of whom...

Seeing that I didn't leave there, Ji Rufeng seemed to be very depressed, and wanted to be angry, but he endured it.

At this time, perceiving the delicate atmosphere in front of him, Nie Qianyu looked at me and Ji Rufeng, and smiled: "Brother Ji is not more cautious and hesitant, anyway, everyone is not an outsider, and besides, this little brother Lin Bai, speaking of which, there is still some relationship with your Ji family."

Hearing Nie Qianyu's words, Ji Rufeng was stunned for a moment, and looked at me complicatedly: "You know someone from our Ji family?

I smiled awkwardly, and then, under Nie Qianyu's signal, I told me what happened to Ji Qianqian before.

At that moment, after listening to my narration, Ji Rufeng's eyes widened, and she looked at me in surprise: "Do you see clearly?

I smiled, "Of course, she asked me to help her catch evil spirits." ”

Ji Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief and looked at me: "How old is she, how does she look?"

I answered them one by one, and after speaking, I thought to myself: That Ji Qianqian, it won't be Ji Rufeng's daughter who stayed in the family.

Just thinking about it, Ji Rufeng took a deep breath, looked into the distance, and said with a sigh: "It seems that this girl should be my brother's daughter..."

Nie Qianyu and I didn't speak, but there was a bit of expectation in our eyes.

Under our gaze, Ji Rufeng and Nie Qianyu glanced at each other, and said in a bitter tone: "Brother Nie, I know that you have always looked down on me and despised my behavior towards the royal family back then, but I can't help it... Thirty years ago, I left my family, traveled and fell in love with a woman, who I later took back to my family without permission. ”

Isn't it normal to take a woman home to meet the elderly?

Hearing this, I secretly frowned in my heart.

As if sensing the strangeness of my face, Ji Rufeng glanced at me and said lightly: "The training of the Ji family, the man of the family marries a wife, and the woman needs to get the approval of the patriarch and the family elders before she can marry into the Ji family, and before she visits the church, she can't have children, and when I took the woman back to the family, she already had my flesh and blood."

So it was..

I was suddenly stunned, and at the same time, I secretly muttered in my heart: I didn't expect this Ji Rufeng to have such a temperament when she was young. Unmarried childbearing, this is...

Muttering in my heart, I quietly watched Ji Rufeng wait for his next words.

And at this moment, Nie Qianyu was also a little touched, and said, "Then what?"

Ji Rufeng smiled bitterly, his expression was a little gloomy, as if he was recalling the past events back then, and said slowly: "Later, my father and several uncles knew that they insisted on punishing me with group training, and forced me to abandon women and children. ”

"I naturally didn't agree, I was young and vigorous at the time, and I quarreled with them, and finally I made a move, but I hurt the second uncle and left the family with the woman, but because of the fright, the woman died in childbirth, and the child was not saved, just when I was sad and painful, the family came out with news, and the second uncle was seriously injured and could not heal...."

"Although everyone in the family knows that I was unintentional at the time, the second uncle did die at my hands, and finally the family issued a hunt and kill order. ”

"The beloved woman and child died, and the second uncle also died, that time was the most painful and difficult time for me, because I was evading the pursuit, I had no choice but to go to Qingyun Country, and became the royal worship of Qingyun Country. ”

"Over the years, I often want to go back to the family to have a look, but I feel shameless to see my ancestors, especially the family of my second uncle..."

When he said this, Ji Rufeng's eyes were hazy, faintly covered with a layer of mist, and his tone was extremely gloomy...

"So you had such an experience.." Hearing this, Nie Qianyu also sighed lightly, his face showing a little embarrassment and apology: "It seems that I was wrong before, thinking that you were a person who covets glory and wealth." ”

Ji Rufeng shook his head with a bitter face, then he stabilized his mood, looked at Nie Qianyu, and smiled freely: "Hehe, I can hear Nie Qianyu say such apologetic words, there don't seem to be many people in the world, and I, Ji Rufeng, am also very honored." ”

As he spoke, Ji Rufeng greeted: "This situation and this scene are worth a few drinks." ”

"Hehe, okay. Nie Qianyu smiled and nodded happily.

Then the two of them greeted me and went directly to the camp where Ji Rufeng was resting, and after sitting down, under Ji Rufeng's signal, the guards outside quickly got a few jars of wine.

Speaking of which, the matter of the poisonous plague at this moment is not completely over, with the current situation, drunkenness is a violation of the royal rules, but Ji Rufeng's identity is special, and the identity of the royal worship, even the empress has to be polite, not to mention those guards, naturally they are all working hard.

Soon, after a few glasses of wine, Ji Rufeng's mood was completely lost from the previous melancholy, and he talked and laughed with Nie Qianyu very easily, and the two of them were talking about the things they traveled on various continents when they were young.

I sat on the sidelines and couldn't interject, but I listened with relish.

Then the two of them talked about the topic of the mysterious family, and at that moment, I couldn't help but ask: "The two seniors, the four mysterious people who came before, in addition to the predecessors of the Ji family, the other three are also from the mysterious family?"

Hearing my inquiry, Ji Rufeng looked at me, his face was a little drunk, and he smiled: "Although those three people didn't break out of the house before, but from their exercises, that middle-aged man should be a member of the Yin family in Guigu, and the Yin family is good at refining spells, so he used charms at that time to dispel the poisonous mist."

"And the woman in the red dress should be a member of the Lin family in Zhulin Mountain, the Lin family has a unique accomplishment in the music rhythm exercise, and with the help of the music rhythm exercise at that time, it can break the hidden organization of the hidden heaven and control the poisonous corpse..."

When he said this, Ji Rufeng frowned: "As for that young man.... He's supposed to be a soul master... As for the family, I can't tell it, but his exercises are very peculiar..."

"Soul Master?"

I was stunned, to be honest, this was the first time I had heard of this kind of identity, and my face was full of curiosity.

Ji Rufeng smiled faintly at me: "The spirit master is the coldest one of the cultivators, and it is also the rarest, it is rumored that the spirit master can easily control the spirit beast, and without signing a contract, the spirit beast can be used for it... However, the spirit master has disappeared in various continents for nearly a thousand years, and this kind of exercise has almost been lost, but I didn't expect this outbreak of poisonous plague to appear again..."

, you don't need to sign a contract to be able to control the spirit beast?

"It was that kid who urged the spirit master's exercises, and he was able to easily repel those poisonous beasts before, you know, after those spirit beasts were infected with corpse poison and became poisonous beasts, they still retained a trace of spirit beast thinking, so in the face of the spirit master, there is a natural instinctive fear..."

Just when I was secretly surprised, Ji Rufeng said lightly again.

For a while, I was stunned there, and I didn't come back to my senses for a long time, and it wasn't until this moment that I realized that the cultivation world I knew was far more grand than I had imagined.

"Hehe, you are worthy of being a member of the Ji family, I don't know about these situations, but you can tell each other's origins one by one, it's not simple.."

At this moment, Nie Qianyu took a sip of wine and said with admiration.

Ji Rufeng shook his head and smiled, and said meaningfully: "Sometimes, knowing too many things is not a good thing. ”

"In this way, the strength of these hidden families is very strong, right?" At this time, I came back to my senses, and at the same time my heart was faintly shaken, I also asked again.
