It has been a full month since the cult attacked Sifang City, although Sifang City was seriously damaged, but because of the large number of people, the repair work has been almost done, Mu Shuliang came to Sifang City, and what he saw was another splendid city.

It was Nanchen who took Mu Shuliang into the city, he is now almost recovered from his injuries, but his body is still weak, and the Sifang City Lord still doesn't worry about letting him go out to help the righteous path, so he handed over the internal affairs of Sifang City to Nanchen to be responsible. Nanchen led Mu Shuliang into the city, and the two of them didn't say anything, but when they were about to arrive at Chu Qingjiu's residence, Nanchen said quietly: "Do you really have to let Chu Qingjiu go this time?" "Before entering Sifang City, Mu Shuliang had already explained his intention.

Listening to Nan Chen's question, Mu Shuliang paused slightly, did not say anything, and only said, "Xiao Chu, is he okay recently?" ”

"It doesn't matter if it's good or not, just go and see it." Nanchen shook his head, and finally took Mu Shuliang to the place where Chu Qingjiu lived.

When the two came, Qiu Tang was just about to leave. Nanchen looked at the sword Qiu Tang was carrying in his hand, and asked out loud, "You came to find someone to practice swords again?" ”

Qiu Tang nodded, but said with a frown on his face: "That guy is getting more and more ruthless." ”

Mu Shuliang listened to their conversation, and roughly guessed who "that guy" in Qiu Tang's mouth was.

Qiu Tang didn't want to say more, he seemed to be very irritable in his heart, and quickly waved his hand and left, Nanchen took Mu Shuliang to the door of the small courtyard where Chu Qingjiu lived, and he didn't go in, so he stopped and let Mu Shuliang go by himself.

Mu Shuliang bowed slightly, and stepped into the courtyard.

The square city is already large, and the courtyards in each place are not small, and the scenery is different. Just like the place where Chu Qingjiu lives at this time, there is a pond in the courtyard, a small pavilion stands on the edge of the pond, a few wisps of vines surround the pavilion, and purple flowers hang down on the surface of the pool, which looks a little leisurely and elegant. However, the man in the pavilion did not have any leisure and elegance, he sat at the table in the pavilion, holding a little white fox in his arms, and muttered as if he was talking to the fox.

Mu Shuliang walked from outside the courtyard, looked at the fox with some surprise, and recognized it at once: "This is the fox that Su Xian followed in the past?" ”

"Hmm." When Chu Qingjiu heard Su Xian's name, he paused and nodded and said in a muffled voice, "The last time Ah Xian broke into the ghost gate to get the jade pendant and was discovered, Ah Xian was taken back to the Xuanyue Sect, and Aunt Yue brought this little fox back to Sifang City. ”

He glanced down at the little fox, one person and one fox stared at the little fox with big eyes, Chu Qingjiu frowned and said: "Later, Ah Xian came to Sifang City every day to discuss the matter of the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Heart with the city lord, and he didn't care about this guy. ”

Mu Shuliang smiled, went straight to the pavilion, sat down in front of Chu Qingjiu, and smoothed the hair on the little fox's back.

The little fox seemed to be a little afraid of him, shrunk back and froze in Chu Qingjiu's arms without moving.

Chu Qingjiu couldn't help but say: "This guy is like knowing how to behave in front of Ah Xian, and he will pretend to be dead in front of others." ”

Mu Shuliang raised his eyebrows, withdrew his hand and said, "Seeing you like this, I feel a lot more relieved." ”

Chu Qingjiu suddenly calmed down, raised his eyes to see Mu Shuliang, a wind blew into the courtyard, blowing small purple flowers onto the stone table, Chu Qingjiu stared for a while, and then said, "Has it been a mess outside recently?" I see that you look a lot haggard, and I'm afraid you're too busy to rest. ”

"The world has never been calm, and the chaos is just a secret thing, and it is just on the surface

。 Mu Shuliang shook his head and chuckled, and said in a low voice, "I've been used to it for a long time." ”

"Xiao Mu." Chu Qingjiu's expression suddenly became serious, and he said to Mu Shuliang, "Is this the path you chose?" ”

"Huh?" Mu Shuliang shook his head and said, "I never chose." ”

The two have known each other since they were very young, and they both understand what each other was like at first, but then more and more things happened, even though they were once friends, but they haven't really spoken together for a long time. At this time, they sat in the courtyard blowing a cool breeze, talking about the past and the future, but their expressions were a few sighs.

Chu Qingjiu looked at Mu Shuliang fixedly, and after Mu Shuliang finished saying that, he laughed again, and said gently: "The Mu family is the head of the eight great families, and I am a member of the Mu family, my responsibility is inherent, I don't have a choice, and I don't want to escape." And I want to know where I can go. After he finished saying this, he unconsciously stopped talking again, and continued: "Xiao Chu, what about you?" ”

"Me?" Chu Qingjiu asked rhetorically.

Mu Shuliang nodded, waiting for Chu Qingjiu's response.

Chu Qingjiu glanced up at the sun outside the pavilion, and said in a low voice: "Our Chu family doesn't have as many things as your Mu family, and my father hasn't cared much about me since I was a child, I can do whatever I want, and he doesn't bother to care." I don't care what happens in the world, and there is nothing particularly important for me to do. ”

His voice became smaller and smaller, and later, he couldn't help but look back at Mu Shuliang and said, "Until now, I have a little envy of you." ”

Mu Shuliang listened to Chu Qingjiu's words speechlessly, and Chu Qingjiu smiled bitterly: "I've been thinking about what I should do here these days. But when I think about it, my mind is full of Ah Xian. ”

"You want to go to her." Mu Shuliang said.

Chu Qingjiu bowed his head, put one hand on the little fox's furry back, and lowered his eyes and said, "You came to me, didn't you also want me to go to her?" ”

Mu Shuliang spread his hands innocently, Chu Qingjiu raised his eyebrows and stood up and said: "I know, I'll pack up for a while and leave tomorrow, we should have made it clear, I didn't dare to say it before, but now I've been thinking about it for so long, this day will come sooner or later, and it won't turn around if it drags on like this." ”

"Su Xian will pass through Frost City in three days." Mu Shuliang also got up and followed behind Chu Qingjiu.

Chu Qingjiu paused, turned around and said, "Okay, you go and get busy with the affairs of your Tiangang Alliance, if I succeed in stopping Ah Xian, you have to thank me when I come back." ”

Mu Shuliang smiled: "Please drink." ”

"We'll talk about it then!" Chu Qingjiu replied casually, turned around and went back to the house, Mu Shuliang stood in the pavilion for a while, and soon left this small courtyard, and after saying a word to Nanchen who was guarding outside, he set off to return to Tiangang League.

In fact, Chu Qingjiu did not wait for the next morning, in the afternoon of the same day, he said goodbye to everyone in Sifang City, and then went to Frost City. When he was leaving, the little fox chased him to the door, Chu Qingjiu glared at it, but did not take it away, and only said in a muffled voice: "Ah Xian doesn't even want me anymore, of course I won't want you." ”

The little fox rubbed the back of Chu Qingjiu's hand, Chu Qingjiu quickly withdrew his hand and said seriously: "Maybe I brought Ah Xian back?" Just wait here. ”

Chu Qingjiu had already heard Mu Shuliang talk about Su Xian's whereabouts, and after leaving Sifang City, Chu Qingjiu quickly rushed to Frost City.

Speaking of which, Chu Qingjiu and Su Xian also came to this place before, and later Chu Qingjiu had an accident, and Su Xian also met the evil hand Wan Sheng outside Frost City, and Wan Sheng handed over the puppet to Su Xian's hands

。 Now that a lot of things have happened, and when he returns to this place, Chu Qingjiu will inevitably feel that it is a coincidence.

He first stayed at an inn in Frost City, then went to a blacksmith's shop, and tossed around for a day before returning to the inn. It only took him a day to get from Sifang City to Frost City, according to what Mu Shuliang said, Su Xian and the others passed through Frost City, it should be two days later, so Chu Qingjiu was not in a hurry, he just wanted to prepare everything and see Su Xian again.

However, he never expected that Su Xian and the others' itinerary would be much earlier.

What was even more unexpected was that the inn where Su Xian and the others lived was the same room where Chu Qingjiu lived.

When he came back from the blacksmith shop, Chu Qingjiu was carrying a bag of things in his left hand and a dark iron sword in his right hand, and he looked a little embarrassed with dirt all over his body.

Chu Qingjiu, who is famous all over the world, naturally doesn't make himself look like this on weekdays, but Chu Qingjiu waited for Su Xian absentmindedly, and he didn't care too much, besides, he hadn't walked in the world for a long time, and there weren't many people who knew him, so he didn't need to scruple about anything at all. But it just so happened that Chu Qingjiu walked into the inn on this day and happened to bump into a few familiar faces.

Chu Qingjiu had been in the Xuanyue Sect for several years, and even if he didn't want to know the people of the Xuanyue Sect, he knew them all, and at this time, several people from the Xuanyue Sect were talking to the innkeeper in a whisper. Chu Qingjiu just changed his mind, and immediately swept towards the inn, and almost instantly, he accurately found Su Xian in the crowd.

Su Xian was still wearing a red dress, and there was a little girl beside her, the little girl was full of smiles, as if she was talking to Su Xian about something interesting, Su Xian listened quietly, but there was no expression on her face.

I haven't seen him for such a long time, and Su Xian's body doesn't seem to have changed at all.

Chu Qingjiu couldn't tell what emotions were in his heart, he stood at the gate of the inn in a daze, looking at the person from a distance, his mind was full of the situation where the two used to get along.

The Su Xian he knew seemed to be completely different from the figure in front of him.

Su Xian seemed to be a little absent-minded, staying in the corner seat and lowering his eyes silently, not noticing the arrival of Chu Qingjiu, and Chu Qingjiu did not pass. He was in a mess now, and even a few people from the Xuanyue Sect didn't recognize him, and there were people in the inn, and no one would notice one of the irrelevant people. Chu Qingjiu hid his breath, buried his head slightly, walked past the side of the group, turned around and went up to the second floor of the inn.

If it was late today, Chu Qingjiu knew that since the Xuanyue Sect had come to this inn, they should not leave immediately, at least they would not leave until early tomorrow morning.

Mu Shuliang's information came from the Tiangang Alliance, and the information of the Tiangang Alliance rarely made mistakes, Chu Qingjiu knew that the purpose of Su Xian and the others was to find the souls of the Demon Monarch and Ying, their actions should not be so urgent, but now they suddenly changed their itinerary, so the only reason was that there was something wrong with the souls of the Demon Monarch and Ying.

But that soul doesn't even have a shadow, so what can go wrong?

Chu Qingjiu originally planned to stay in the inn and sneak into the Xuanyue Sect to find out the reason, but what people didn't expect was that before he could make any moves, there was another conflict in the inn lobby downstairs.

It was the disciples of the Xuanyue Sect and the Xuanyang Sect who did it, and several disciples of the Xuanyang Sect seemed to be chasing Su Xian and the others, wanting to stop their movements.

Chu Qingjiu glanced at the Xuanyang Sect disciples upstairs, and couldn't help but stroke his forehead, he really couldn't figure out why the Three Sects and Seven Sects would send these hairy boys to toss around.
