In front of the half-open and half-hidden bamboo screen window, there is a pot of phoenix tail bamboo, and the translucent water droplets roll on the emerald green leaf surface, and suddenly, a shadow flashes in the window, and the wind stirs up the leaves, and the water droplets fall one after another.

The shadow fell lightly to the ground, a half-foot-long tanuki cat, which wagged its slender tail, deftly dodged the falling water droplets, and burrowed into the back room.

"Meow~" just entered the house, it ran towards a table in the middle, there were two people sitting on the table, the tanuki cat stopped directly next to one of the legs, rubbed the man's trouser leg with his head, and his tail climbed the other party's ankle flexibly from time to time.

However, no matter how coquettish it was, the man remained unmoved, and never looked at it again except for a faint glance at first.

The cat couldn't help but be a little deflated, it drooped its beard, and barked aggrievedly, and the whole cat exuded a dejected atmosphere.

"Poof," the other man chuckled, "and it seems to like you." Seeing a little helplessness on the other party's face, she beckoned to the tanuki cat, "Huali, come here." ”

Hearing this, the tanuki cat shook its fur, and its decadent state disappeared immediately, and it jumped on the other party's knees with agile movements, and formed a ball, half-squinting as if it was preparing for something.

"Snorr-snorr-" Finally, after feeling that the owner began to tickle herself, Huali made a comfortable purr in her throat, seeing it like this, Cheng laughed again, and immediately turned her head to look at the person next to her, "Look, isn't it cute?"

Looking at the raccoon cat lying on his back with his neck lying flat and showing his snow-white belly, Gu Xizhan was even more helpless.

This cat is Cheng's spirit animal, belongs to the phantom spirit cat family, has never liked her, usually meets her, are fried hair and bared teeth, today is uncharacteristically close to himself, it is estimated that it is also the meaning of the mother. But if she really teases the cat, this guy will reflexively stretch out his paws.

In order to prevent herself from accidentally injuring the cat's paws, she simply turned a blind eye to this insincere flattery.

Cheng looked at the raccoon cat who was about to fall asleep, and then looked at his daughter with a cold expression, helpless, the two didn't know what was going on, and they couldn't get close. Today's détente failed again, and she shook her head secretly and decided to talk about something else.

At this moment, Gu Xizhan raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his hand and took out a communication jade plate and lowered his eyes to check it. After reading it, she lowered her head and was silent for a long time, and just when Cheng was thinking about asking about the situation, she raised her head and looked at the other party, "Mother, there is something in the sect, I want to go back." ”

Hearing this, Cheng's face showed undisguised disappointment, and she asked a little reluctantly, "Do you have to go back?"

"Hmm. Gu Xizhan nodded, she pursed her lips, a little sorry between her eyebrows, but she still didn't let go.

Seeing her firm attitude, Cheng sighed slightly, and instead told her, "Be careful in everything, don't be reckless." ”

"I see. Gu Xizhan nodded, trying to reassure the other party, she knew why Cheng was disappointed.

The Gu Clan's out-of-body monks are all battle elders within the clan, and they have to take turns to come back to take charge of the clan every fifty years.

Although her father and mother are both disciples of Ling Xiao, she was born when the two of them guarded the family, and she grew up beside the Dustless Venerable since she was a child, and rarely returned to the family, because she did not have a deep relationship with the two.

When she came back this time, she realized the estrangement between herself and her relatives, and because she had the intention to make up for it, she deliberately stayed in the clan for a while, and planned to return to the sect after a year, but she didn't expect that people were not as good as heaven.

But she had to go back.

Gu Xizhan rubbed the jade plaque, and the words "trapped in the secret realm" on it were like flames, making people feel hot.

Something happened to the secret realm in the south, and now only Jin Dan and below can enter, and all the Yuan Babies who went in early were thrown out.

At the beginning, the sect only sent one Jindan monk into it, who was the senior brother of Ling Xiao of this generation.

Now that the sect is going to send someone to find it, she should do her part.

…………

When Gu Xizhan returned to Zijun Peak, she found that her master and junior brother had been waiting for her for a long time. Seeing her come back, Venerable Dustless went straight to the point, "All know?"

"Hmm. ”

"Do you want to go?"

Gu Xizhan's expression remained unchanged. "Yes. ”

One is for responsibility, the other is for experience, and there is no reason for her not to go.

Venerable Wuchen was not surprised by her answer, he bowed slightly, took out a storage ring for her, and said, "You two will go together on this trip, remember to be careful. ”

The two of you? Gu Xizhan was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted to who the master was talking about, and immediately responded with the male cultivator, "Yes." ”

"Go and rest, and leave tomorrow. ”

…………

The two of them retreated, walked out one after another, and halfway up the mountainside, Gu Xizhan looked back at the male cultivator who was silently walking behind her, "Be careful in everything." ”

When Xie Ke heard this, his eyes lit up, "Yes." ”

After getting a response, Gu Xizhan nodded at him and turned to leave.

The secret realm in the south, after preliminary exploration, is not very dangerous, but this time the mutation, everything has become uncertain, it stands to reason that this time only Jin Dan should be sent in.

However, Xie Ke's innate sword species, although it is still a secret, is destined to not be hidden for long. Even if he has Ling Xiao behind him, it is impossible to sit back and relax. The only way is for him to grow up quickly.

So this time, he should go, risk is always accompanied by chance, even if there is a suspicion of promoting seedlings.

…………

The sky was faint, the morning fog was still there, and the east was faintly golden red.

Once again, Gu Xizhan squinted at the south, and only after a long time did he retract his gaze and nod to the familiar fellow door.

As expected, except for Xie Ke, all the people gathered here were Jin Dan, looking at the bustling two or three hundred people, she silently calculated, and finally confirmed that there were free Jin Dan fellow doors, at least thirty percent.

"Senior Sister Hengming," Hearing the familiar figure, Gu Xizhan turned around, and saw Shen Qianzhi and Kou Si coming over, the two of them smiled at Gu Xizhan first, and then looked at the male cultivator, "Senior Brother Xie is also going with him?"

"Hmm. ”

Shen Qian smiled clearly, "It's okay to go for a trip." He suddenly took out a jade plaque and handed it to the male cultivator, "If there is anything, you can find me." ”

Seeing this, Kou Si looked at him with some surprise, and Cang Yi and his party made them identify with this junior disciple who had just entered the sect, but it was far from being familiar with each other.

Shen Qianzhi didn't mean to explain, he looked away from the jade plate, and Gu Xizhan bowed slightly to the male cultivator who was looking at her with his spare eyes.

Senior Brother Hengqian's move was just to draw in the relationship with Zi Junfeng, and it was no big deal.

Seeing that she agreed, Xie Ke took the jade plaque and thanked him, "Thank you, Senior Brother Hengqian." ”

A few more casual chats, Gu Xizhan suddenly frowned, looked up at the east, and looked unpredictable. She felt that there was a sinister aura coming towards her.

Seeing that her expression was different, Shen Qianzhi just wanted to ask, but a person appeared in his sight, making him swallow his words back immediately, "I've seen Uncle Wuzong." ”

"Yes. The handsome corpse cultivator with a pale face didn't pay attention to others, and looked straight at Gu Xizhan with eyes without the whites of his eyes, "Take her with you." ”

Gu Xizhan was stunned for a moment, only to see that there was a person standing behind him, a girl with a beautiful face with a scar on her neck that could not be removed, the other party saw her, and did not hide her joy, and her face had a somewhat stiff but still bright smile.

Is it Yu Sang? Gu Xizhan looked at Wuzong Zhenzun again, and wanted to refuse, "Senior Uncle, this ......" Although Yu Sang is talented, he is still only in the middle stage of foundation building, and he doesn't have to grow as quickly as his junior brother, she really doesn't agree that the other party needs to go.

"It works for you. Before she could finish speaking, Wuzong interrupted her, and he looked at the nephew in front of him who had almost no intersection, and his eyes were a little more gentle.

He's a good boy, and now that he's figured it out, there's no reason why he shouldn't help the other party.

Gu Xizhan was silent, and Uncle Wu's reputation was not only that he was a corpse cultivator who rarely walked the way of the sword, but also that his deduction technique was ranked in the top ten in the entire Gu Xuan Capital.

Right now, Wuzong obviously wanted to help her, thinking like this, Gu Xizhan Shili said: "Thank you uncle, Hengming will take care of my sister." ”

"You be careful. Leave Yu Sang where he is, and leave without a head or looking back.
