Sunset mountain, falling wood Xiaoxiao, colorful sun stained red mountain.

A man carrying a bamboo basket on his back and leading a snow-white mink walked down the path. The man sighed softly and found a young man in ragged clothes lying on the side of the road.

"I don't know whose child it is, if he hadn't met me, he would have fed the tiger and wolf. The sage once said that if you do a good deed every day, you can accumulate great virtue, so take him back to the Red Cloud Cave. The man muttered, picked up the boy, placed him in the basket, and walked forward.

Jiang Xinyue woke up and found a pair of big copper bell-like eyes staring at her.

"Hmph, stinky boy, you will cause trouble for the old man, bring a child back, wouldn't you make a noise to death. The big eyes of the copper bell who spoke were an old man with a yellow face and wearing sackcloth.

Jiang Xinyue's parents died, and there was nothing in this world, he was stared at by the old man, and he suddenly felt aggrieved. He has always been bold, but at this moment he has no attachment, and he has the idea of suicide in his heart, and he is not afraid of what the old man will do to him. Jiang Xinyue puffed out her cheeks and looked at the old man, looking arrogant.

The old man blew his nose, pursed his mouth, stretched out his palm and slapped Jiang Xinyue on the top of the head.

"Stinky bullnose, if you dare to beat the master, I will fight with you. Tears welled up in Jiang Xinyue's eyes, and she threw herself at the old man. But seeing the old man's palm wave, Jiang Xinyue only felt that he was isolated by an invisible force, which was not small, pushing him to the ground and turning over. Somehow, I didn't see Jiang Xinyue continue to "do evil" at this time, only a pair of eyes stared at the old man without moving. Somersault. Somehow, I didn't see Jiang Xinyue continue to "do evil" now, only a pair of eyes straight into the line

At this time, a thin Taoist priest came from Jiang Xinyue's side. The Taoist priest was only in his twenties, looked at Jiang Xinyue from afar, and said respectfully to the old man: "Master, I saw this little ghost lying on the side of the road like a dead corpse, and the atmosphere couldn't get out a few times. I brought him back just to test the effect of the elixir that the master had recently taught his apprentices to refine. I never thought that this kid was also fateful, and the disciple fed him a pill of Xianqi Pill and came back to life. ”

The old man brushed his beard and smiled: "Hmph, what do you kid know." Xianqi Pill is a healing elixir, and life and death are not a problem. ”

The man who was as thin as a bamboo pole narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said in his heart: "What kind of bullshit Xianqi Pill, last time Lao Tzu bumped it, and after taking this Xianqi Pill, the blood can't be stopped." ”

The bamboo pole man naturally didn't dare to say this in front of his master, and said with a smile on his lips: "It doesn't matter if this kid is killed or scraped, but if he dies, it's a pity that he wasted an elixir in vain." ”

Seeing that his master nodded, the bamboo pole man showed a wicked smile on his face: "You might as well leave him and be a furnace boy." After finishing speaking, the bamboo pole man peeked at the old man's face, only to see that the old man also secretly glanced over, and the bamboo pole man quickly retracted his gaze.

The old man said, "Song Liang, what you said is not unreasonable. On weekdays, it's all because the teacher is a little harsh on you, and the alchemy and medicine collection are all left to you to do alone, which is really difficult for you. From today onwards, this kid will be handed over to you for guidance. ”

Song Liang's eyes were pleasantly surprised, and he hurriedly bowed to the old man and said, "Thank you for your compassion, the disciple will definitely discipline this kid well." ”

The old man nodded, stopped looking at the two of them, put his palms behind his back, and turned to leave.

Jiang Xinyue had been hiding in the corner just now and didn't dare to move, but when she saw the old man leaving, she hurriedly went up and grabbed the old man's sleeve and said, "Senior, the disciple's name is Jiang Xinyue, and he will definitely work hard to cultivate in the future and live up to the great kindness of his predecessors." ”

The old man showed a disdainful smile on his face, looked at Jiang Xinyue, pulled Jiang Xinyue's finger away with some disgust, and said lightly: "Practice? Jiang Xinyue, it's a good name, from today on, you can follow Song Liang's kid to practice." ”

Song Liang sighed softly, looked at the back of the old man leaving, and shook his head secretly. Song Liang hurriedly walked up to Jiang Xinyue and said softly: "Your kid's life is really big, if you hadn't met me, maybe you would have really let the beast eat it." ”

After that, Song Liang pulled up Jiang Xinyue, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Look at you, you don't look like a child without a home, don't your family care about you?"

Jiang Xinyue shook off Song Liang's palm fiercely, and said angrily: "Who is the child without a home?"

Song Liang was stunned for a moment when he saw Jiang Xinyue suddenly get angry. But seeing Jiang Xinyue with her back to herself, squatting on the ground and burying her face, there was a soft sobbing sound. Song Liang smiled lightly and said, "That's right, I didn't have parents when I was very young. ”

After Song Liang finished saying this, he saw Jiang Xinyue turn around, covered his face with his hands, and stared at him. Song Liang felt that this child was also a little pitiful, he gently patted Jiang Xinyue's hair, but Jiang Xinyue pushed it away with one hand.

Song Liang said slightly: "You don't want to talk about your affairs, this is Chiyun Cave." By the way, have you ever heard of the old ghost of Chiyun?" When he said the words "old ghost of Chiyun", Song Liang lowered his voice.

Jiang Xinyue shook her head slightly, stood up, and her eyes fell on the colorful jade bottle in the cave mansion.

"These are pills, don't move around. Don't say I didn't warn you, if the old ghost finds out that you are stealing food or stealing, then your little life will be over. ”

On this day, Song Liang took Jiang Xinyue up the mountain to collect medicine, and the two walked halfway up the mountain, Jiang Xinyue felt that her legs were sore, and she sat on a boulder and lay down. The sunlight refracted from the leaves on Jiang Xinyue's immature cheeks, but there was no innocent and lively youthful posture.

Song Liang broke a branch, knocked down a yellow leaf and landed on Jiang Xinyue's face. Jiang Xinyue flipped up, pinched the leaf with her hand and threw it on Song Liang's body. Song Liang snorted and said coldly: "Lao Tzu offended some cow ghost and snake god in his last life, and met such a plague god as you." In the past half a month, your kid has stayed in Chiyun Cave in a daze all day long, and he doesn't want to say a word to anyone. ”

Seeing Jiang Xinyue's anger, she walked forward alone, and Song Liang shouted, "Little dumb man, what about you." ”

It's no wonder that Song Liang said that he was a little mute, just because in the past half a month, this young man has never heard a word from him except for a few words at the beginning.

"You're dumb, your whole family is dumb. Jiang Xinyue suddenly turned around and scolded Song Liang.

Song Liang smiled for a while, and said, "You kid is really cheap, you want someone to scold you before you speak." ”

Jiang Xinyue was stunned in place, and when Song Liang stepped forward, she glared at him angrily, and continued to walk towards the mountain. Song Liang shook his head, and was about to keep up with him, when he suddenly felt a faint aura appear. Staring at it, I saw a two-headed civet cat in front of Jiang Xinyue, opening its mouth to show its fangs, and roaring in a low voice.

Song Liang scolded secretly: "Hell, how can there still be a two-headed civet cat demon beast in this Chiyun Mountain Range, this kid is really the nemesis of Lao Tzu's life." ”

The two-headed tanuki was the size of an ordinary tiger, with two heads on its neck, which was indescribably ugly. Jiang Xinyue's legs and feet were weak in fright, and she saw the two-headed civet cat open its huge mouth, and there was a pungent smell of blood, Jiang Xinyue was startled, turned around and ran. only heard a strange cat meow, the sound shook the mountains and forests, Jiang Xinyue's heart was so frightened that she walked with fright. He watched the two-headed tanuki walk towards him step by step, and a chill welled up in his heart.

The two-headed tanuki stretched its neck, poked its head out, and was about to bite Jiang Xinyue.

"Hindrance, stop!"

Song Liang didn't know where he came from, took out seven or eight orange-yellow talismans, and threw them at the two-headed tanuki.

"Woohoo......"

There was an explosion, and the roar of a two-headed tanuki was heard.

Song Liang saw that this demon beast was shot by those runes, and the skin and flesh were not broken, and he was shocked, and hurriedly pulled Jiang Xinyue up and ran hard.

It's just that the two-headed tanuki is extremely fast, desperately chasing after him. Jiang Xinyue saw that the tanuki was about to catch up after a while, and Song Liang took him with him, but he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on for a while, and then both of them would lose their lives. Jiang Xinyue said in her heart: "I don't have a father or a mother, and no one in the world cares about me." This guy treats me really well on weekdays, but don't let him die because of me. ”

Song Liang carried Jiang Xinyue on his back, rushed all the way, and panted: "You kid be honest with Lao Tzu, if you dare to move around, I will really throw you to feed that colorful strange cat." ”

Although Song Liang said this, he was a little moved in his heart. Jiang Xinyue kept hammering him on the shoulder, wanting to let herself drop him. Song Liangxin said: "Although this kid is stupid, he also knows gratitude, and it is not in vain that I saved his life." ”

Jiang Xinyue didn't want to kill this thin man, so she deliberately annoyed him so that she could throw herself away. But when he heard that Song Liang took the opportunity to take advantage of him, he was furious. Even if the demon beast pursued behind her, Jiang Xinyue didn't care about biting on Song Liang's shoulder regardless of her teeth. Since he lost his father, he was most afraid of mentioning words such as "Lao Tzu" and "Daddy" in front of him. This Song Liang called himself "Lao Tzu", so Jiang Xinyue was furious.

Song Liang screamed in pain, threw down Jiang Xinyue, pointed at him and scolded: "What do you want to do this kid? ”

Jiang Xinyue fell to the ground, gritted her teeth and said, "Lao Tzu is dead or alive, you have to care?"

Song Liang is also very angry, this kid is always inexplicably angry, making him grit his teeth. Leaving Jiang Xinyue behind, Song Liang still had some remorse in his heart, he couldn't help but look back, but saw that an old man in linen appeared behind him at some point.

"Shizun ......" school

I saw the people of Chiyun Dao, looking at the two-headed civet cat, and a smile appeared on their faces. He pinched the trick with both hands, and a monstrous blood shadow appeared behind him, and soon among the blood shadows, a fierce ghost ten feet tall broke free, with teeth and claws, extremely vicious.

Jiang Xinyue's eyes widened, and she saw the powerful ghost flying out from behind the old man. Then I saw the terrible ghost open its bloody mouth and bite the two-headed tanuki. A burst of blood mist filled the air, Jiang Xinyue could no longer see the scene, and after about four or five breaths, the blood shadow and the ghost retracted back into the old man's body, but the two-headed civet cat was nowhere to be found.

The old man didn't look at Jiang Xinyue's amazed gaze, and glanced at Song Liang coldly and said, "Hmph, I don't care about today's matter for the time being." This kid's life is still a little useful, you can take him back. ”

Song Liang nodded, watched the old man's body turn into a burst of spiritual light, dissipated here, and exhaled. He walked towards Jiang Xinyue, who glanced at Song Liang coldly, trying to stand up by herself. Song Liang laughed, and wanted to help him in the past, but was pushed away by Jiang Xinyue.

Song Liang said helplessly: "If you have something, just say it." Do you really think that everyone is a roundworm in your stomach and know what you think?"

Jiang Xinyue glanced at him and asked, "Is Shizun the old ghost of Chiyun you said?"

Song Liang pinched his nose and said in a low voice, "Old ghost?"

I heard Jiang Xinyue say again: "It would be nice if I could be as powerful as my master." ”

Song Liang looked at Jiang Xinyue and said, "You also want to practice?"

Seeing Jiang Xinyue nodded, Song Liang stretched out his hand to Jiang Xinyue and said, "It's only possible to go back to Chiyun Cave with me, otherwise if you are injured now and don't follow me, it will become a meal for other demon beasts in a while." ”

Jiang Xinyue thought about the two-headed tanuki just now, and her heart palpitated, so she got up and followed Song Liang.

Jiang Xinyue tried again, and the prohibition on the door was extremely powerful, and he couldn't break it at all with his cultivation.

"Uncle Yun, Uncle Yun. ”

"If you don't come out to save me, I'm going to be killed by the bull's nose of the Mixed Yuan Sect. ”

Jiang Xinyue shouted two sentences and finally gave up. Uncle Yun seemed to be asleep again, and Jiang Xinyue had no choice.

Running the Nine Revolutions Qi Refining Record, Jiang Xinyue practiced.

For three consecutive days, Jiang Xinyue was locked up in the Law Enforcement Hall. The dark prison cell, and no one came to see him during the period, made Jiang Xinyue panic in her heart.

"Niubi, let the master out. ”

Jiang Xinyue shouted for a while, and then said, "Senior Uncle Qi, Senior Uncle Qi......"

Jiang Xinyue thought to herself, "Am I really going to die?" Daddy, I'm coming to see you too. ”

Suddenly, Jiang Xinyue heard a burst of footsteps outside the door, and he hurriedly went over and knocked on the door.

The footsteps approached, and Jiang Xinyue spoke: "Let me out, I'm not a spy of Tianxing Palace." ”

A deep voice sounded outside the door, saying, "Good boy, your mouth is quite hard." ”

The door opened, and Jiang Xinyue found Uncle Qi standing at the door, and a beautiful girl in a snow suit.

The girl was none other than Zhao Tianxue, poking her head out from behind Uncle Qi and looking at Jiang Xinyue with a happy face.

Jiang Xinyue saw that Zhao Tianxue was safe and sound, and thought that the Law Enforcement Hall had already found out the matter, and a stone fell in her heart. He said, "If you're all right, that's great." I haven't seen Uncle Qi come over these days, and I thought you had been wronged. ”

Zhao Tianxue saw Jiang Xinyue's heart on her, and her face showed a blush. She wanted to speak and stopped, making Jiang Xinyue's eyes flicker.

Jiang Xinyue opened her mouth and said, "What do you want to say?"

Before Zhao Tianxue could speak, Uncle Qi sneered twice and said, "You kid is an infatuated species, he is in prison, and he is still thinking about others?"

Zhao Tianxue glanced at Senior Uncle Qi with a panicked face, and said, "Senior Uncle Qi, Jiang Xinyue was brought into the sect by me, if you want to punish me, punish me." ”

Jiang Xinyue looked at Senior Uncle Qi, her face turned cold, and said, "You still doubt me?"

Uncle Qi didn't look at Jiang Xinyue, and said, "You don't have to tell me these words." We also acted according to the rules, you broke into the Yuan Sect, and you also entered the Spring Flower Palace. If this matter is not severely punished, then wouldn't our Mixed Yuan Sect have no prestige?"

Jiang Xinyue said, "Who said I wasn't a disciple of the Mixed Yuan Sect?"

Senior Uncle Qi glanced at Jiang Xinyue and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, do you still have a hard mouth? Senior Zhao and nephew have already said that you came with her, do you still want to deny it?"

Jiang Xinyue sneered: "Tianxue doesn't know about this matter, if you don't believe it, go to the head of Huanglong and ask." ”

Zhao Tianxue interrupted Jiang Xinyue and said, "Xinyue, I know you are very powerful, but how can you speak lightly of the name of the head of the house?"

This matter is absolutely true, when did I enter the Mixed Yuan Sect, not only the head of Huanglong was present, but also Yun Yi and other seniors could testify. ”

Seeing that he swore an oath, Uncle Qi didn't seem to be lying, and asked, "If you are joking, do you know what the consequences will be?"

Zhao Tianxue glanced at Jiang Xinyue nervously, seeing that there was no hint of falsehood in his eyes, and thought in his heart: "He defeated everyone in the Heavenly Star Palace by himself that day, and his cultivation is profound, I can't see through it, maybe he was really admitted by the head of the house." ”

Jiang Xinyue said with a smile: "Uncle Qi, if I panic, it is me who is unlucky." But if you punish the wrong person, it will affect the reputation of your law enforcement hall.

Jiang Xinyue had her own plans in her heart, looked at Zhao Tianxue with a smile, and signaled that she didn't need to panic. Jiang Xinyue stared at Senior Uncle Qi again and said seriously: "This matter is absolutely true, when did I enter the Mixed Yuan Sect, not only the head of Huanglong was present, but also Yun Yi and other seniors could testify." ”

Seeing that he swore an oath, Uncle Qi didn't seem to be lying, and asked, "If you are joking, do you know what the consequences will be?"

Zhao Tianxue glanced at Jiang Xinyue nervously, seeing that there was no hint of falsehood in his eyes, and thought in his heart: "He defeated everyone in the Heavenly Star Palace by himself that day, and his cultivation is profound, I can't see through it, maybe he was really admitted by the head of the house." ”

Jiang Xinyue said with a smile: "Uncle Qi, if I panic, it is me who is unlucky." But if you punish the wrong person, it will affect the reputation of your law enforcement hall. ”

Uncle Qi secretly said that Jiang Xinyue was right, so he said: "For the sake of Senior Zhao's nephew's face, the old man will believe you once." There is no need to disturb the head of the family in this matter, you and I will go to the registration hall to check if there is any information about you, and it will be clear whether what you said is true or false. ”

Jiang Xinyue saw Uncle Qi say this, and she couldn't say anything more. He thought to himself: "Anyway, the boss said that I should go to register, which will save me some trouble." I just don't know if the head has explained this matter to the registration hall, if not, it will be a little troublesome. ”

There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and Jiang Xinyue has no better way.

On the way, Jiang Xinyue asked Zhao Tianxue what happened to the whole thing, it turned out that it was really Zhao Xianyue who was behind the scenes, and people from Tianxing Palace came together to fan the flames and reverse black and white, so the Law Enforcement Hall arrested Zhao Tianxue.

But Zhao Tianxue was released, in fact, it was not because the Law Enforcement Hall really believed Zhao Tianxue's words, but because Zhao Tianxue's master, Xianyun Dao people came forward to guarantee that she was fine.
