20. Crisis
How could it be him?! Li Xingchen felt bitter in his heart, as the so-called blessing and misfortune are not a single line, and he didn't have a chance with his predecessors, but he actually met this guy in a blink of an eye.
The person who came shook the white jade fan in his hand very proudly, "Li Daoyou, I just said that we are very fateful." Sure enough, hahaha! ”
Li Xingchen silently bypassed him with his sword in his hand, and stretched out his hand to push open the gate of the red sandalwood carved pine crane in the Lingfu. "Squeak-" The dust deposited on the ground suddenly flew up, shimmering and dancing in the golden sunlight.
…… Golden sunshine? He squinted and looked up, and the room was lined with neat rows of bookshelves, and on the opposite wall a huge window was opening to let in the midday sun.
"Yo! Den! Tai Chaoning poked his head out from behind him, "Could it be that this time the spirit treasure is a secret book of exercises?" ”
Li Xingchen's fingers swiped across the bookshelf and randomly clicked on a book. "Are you going to find out the spiritual treasure from so many books?" The pages of the book were opened, where was the mental method, the sword technique was not, and it was not even the formation method...... This is simply a folk erotic novel, okay? The first few pages also seem to be serious to write some scholars to go to Beijing to catch the exam or something, and then turn the scholar and the rich lady under the moon private meeting, and then turn the scholar and the beautiful little maid Mandarin Duck to bathe, and then turn the scholar and the enchanting fox fairy curtain to sit on the ground......
Li Xingchen hurriedly glanced at it a few times, but it was a pity that the cultivator's eyesight was extremely good, and those words were deeply imprinted in his mind, and he couldn't help but blush. He slammed the book behind and put it back, "These are not spiritual treasures. ”
Tai Chao Ning looked at his red cheeks and curiously reached for the book he had just put down.
"What do you do?" Li Xingchen twisted his eyebrows, "This study is probably used to confuse us, and the spirit treasure must be hidden somewhere else." ”
"And what are you blushing about?" Tai Chaoning didn't give up, and the fan was spread, covering the lower half of his face, revealing only a pair of amorous peach blossom eyes, "Your expression is the same as the big girl in the cave room on a candle night." ”
Li Xingchen lowered his eyelashes, "Then look, I'll go first." ”
"Don't don't," Tai Chaoning really put down the book and followed, "It's not a good idea to break into the Spirit Mansion alone, not to mention that Li Daoyou hasn't arrived at Jindan yet, it's very dangerous!" ”
Li Xingchen walked to the window, only to see a big pine tree growing on the edge of the clear pond behind the window, and several black-legged cranes in the pool were pacing elegantly, leisurely. On all sides there are rooms like this study, which enclose this small garden.
Li Xingchen weighed with his hand and jumped into the courtyard from the window. The cranes were startled by him, and they spread their white wings and flew up, hovering over the sky in all directions, and their mouths let out a sharp chirp.
Tai Chaoning followed his movements and jumped down, and suddenly ran to the edge of the small pool and picked up a big pebble as if he had found something. "It's not easy, the crane is still laying eggs."
Egg? Li Xingchen looked at it, and it turned out that it was not a pebble, but an unhatched bird egg of a crane.
"Li Daoyou may not know that in a Lingfu like this, which I don't know how many years have passed, it is basically impossible for a creature to exist. The cranes and banyan trees are just the scenery created by the Lingfu itself, probably simulating the scene when the master was still there. "Tai Chaoning patted the bird eggs in his hand and raised cranes as spiritual pets? Sure enough, it was the preference of tens of thousands of years ago.
While listening to him, Li Xingchen looked around and observed the other three rooms. All three rooms were empty, and there was nothing but a desk. The difference is that one desk has stools on both sides, while the other two have only one stool.
Tai Chao Ning craned his neck and looked at the case, and suddenly realized: "I see, the master of this Spirit Mansion is really a gentleman." Piano, chess, books, and paintings, each with its own room. But if you want me to say, no wine, no beauty, what's the point of these things?
Asco? Li Xingchen had reservations about Tai Chaoning's conclusion. Tai Chaoning didn't see this ancient monk's favorite book, but he did. Placing such a book in the most conspicuous and desirable place, the master of the Lingfu is not only not an elegant person, but most of them is a shameless guy.
"We have to find a way to get out," Tai Chaoning shook his fan, "This is the entrance, and the chess room opposite him should be the exit, right?" ”
"......" Li Xingchen was speechless, quietly watching Tai Chaoning jump into the chess room and run to open the door on the opposite side.
"Hey, hey? Lee Daoyou! Doesn't it make sense? Why is this room locked from the outside? Tai Chao Ning slapped the wooden door and kicked it twice with his foot, but the wooden door just didn't move.
“…… Look at the case, is there a chess game? Li Xingchen pointed.
Tai Chao Ning turned around and sat on the white stone bench on the edge of the chess game to examine it. "It's indeed an endgame, but Li Daoyou, he can't play chess!"
You don't know how to play chess. Am I going to be? Li Xingchen was helpless, it seemed that this way was not working, so he had to find another way.
Tai Chao stood up in a sneer, and planned to come out of the chess room and go to another room to have a look. The chess room and study have doors, so the other two rooms should also have them.
He didn't notice that his wide sleeved robe was brushing against the chessboard, and he was driving a crystal white piece of his own.
"Bang dang!" A loud bang came from nowhere, and the dust deposited on the carved beams and pillars poured down, and a crack appeared on the wooden beams, followed by the second and third. The ground seemed to be crumpled and shattered by something.
"What did you do!" Li Xingchen immediately wrinkled his eyebrows.
"I'm ......," Tai Chaoning glanced down at his robe, "...... It seems to have moved a chess piece......"
"The space here is getting smaller, I'll make you hurry up and study the chess game, if you win, maybe there will be a chance of life, otherwise you will wait to be crushed into meat sauce." Li Xingchen said coldly. I thought that the monks of the Jindan period could also be regarded as a help, but I didn't expect to help when I came up. Sure enough, it's a boy with an empty face.
He looked up at the narrow sky and leaped upwards with the help of the wind, trying to fly straight away from it. The white cranes didn't stop him, and they roared in schadenfreude as they watched him crash headlong into the transparent barrier.
"Shhh He landed next to the pine tree, and was about to ask the Taichao Ning Xingshi, who had not achieved enough success, but the immortal crane, which had been hovering quietly, suddenly went crazy, and suddenly turned into a big black bird in the purple mist, but with ten times more intense spiritual power, they attacked Li Xingchen together.
