Two days later, everyone left the main altar of the Xuantian Sect.

It's June, and the snow is still falling on the snowy mountains, but it's already summer at the bottom of the mountains. After everyone went down the mountain, they changed into light clothes, and drove all the way to Yizhang Peak.

When he came back this time, the dilemma of the Xuantian Sect's lack of green and yellow and few available people once again made Sect Leader Xi feel deeply.

Qin Xuan returned to the entrance of the hall, Leng Yi was also driven back to the entrance of the hall by Xi Yutang, Yingqiu Zou Qing continued to guard the main altar, and she herself brought Shen Qixiaowu and Shaoguang. She had a resolute attitude, and no one could resist it, but fortunately, everyone in the Snow Mountain knew that there was Young Master Lan and Young Master Yue by their side, so despite worrying, they still obeyed her orders.

All the way out of the snow-capped mountain boundary, before going to Shangguan Road, they found a place to camp.

Next to the stream, Xi Xiao, who was far away from everyone and accompanied Shen Qi out to collect medicine, squatted on the ground and sighed, "When do you think we will have enough manpower?" ”

"In another three or five years." Shen Qi calmly threw the herbs into the basket, "It's useless to be anxious, the rivers and lakes are like this, no matter how much cultivation is worth dying in one day, isn't this how you have come over for more than ten years?" ”

They haven't always been like this, either. In the past, there were times when there were many people, but the rivers and lakes were dangerous, and Xuantian had always been at the forefront of the battle, and the relationship with the Medicine King Valley was poor, and there were many casualties, which was inevitable.

After a pause, Shen Qi turned around hesitantly, "Sect Master......"

Xi Yutang's hand shook and he looked up in surprise, "What do you call me?" ”

"Xi Yutang." Doctor Shen was expressionless for a moment, "...... I want to take in apprentices. ”

"Huh?! Who? Little Five? ”

Shen Qi looked at her.

Laughing awkwardly, Sect Leader Xi grinned, "I'm laughing...... Xiao Wu only knows how to fight, and it is not suitable for him to come...... So you say yes? ”

"I'm not sure." Shen Qi said lightly, "Let's find one in the Medicine King Valley." If the second sister has a child, she will take her child as an apprentice, and if she doesn't have it within a year, she will find a pleasing one, just in case. ”

"Prevent what? You won't leave me. Xi Yutang was puzzled.

“…… It's not the same as it used to be, and I can't look at you all the time. ”

Shen Qi narrowed his eyes, and said again after a while, "Besides, a few more doctors are good to Snow Mountain and you, so you can always be prepared." ”

"Xiaomei." Xi Yutang said, "Do you have any ideas?" You, do you want to go? ”

"You're thinking too much." Shen Qi became irritable, "It's just a little thing, are you bothered by talking nonsense?" I want to teach Su Jiu to accept apprentices, so let's just say that you don't agree! ”

Sect Leader Xi suddenly sat upright, "Agreed!" You agree with everything you say! I support you unconditionally! ”

…… Say no and it's over.

Shen Qi glanced at her with disgust, "Don't think about it, if you didn't say that the snow mountains are green and yellow, I wouldn't have thought of this." Die, I'm going to rely on you for many years. ”

Xi Yutang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Also," the irascible beauty said with a cold face, "You go and ask Young Master Lan and Yue Qingfeng, if anyone under him wants to learn, follow me, teach one is teaching, and two or three are also teaching." ”

“……”

Looking at the person in front of him in a daze, Xi Yutang didn't understand why Shen Qi suddenly had such an idea. She squinted suspiciously, speculating on the deep meaning of his doing, but after thinking about it, she could only think that he was idle and bored after successfully curing his cold poison, plus the Medicine King Valley walked around, and had his own feelings.

However, with Xiaomei's temper, isn't he afraid of a short-tempered apprentice who will stab the apprentice to death?

"Xiaomei, what the hell are you thinking?" She couldn't help but ask.

Shen Qi pursed his lips and didn't speak.

After a while, he sighed, "Xi Yutang, haven't you ever thought that Si Li would let me enter the palace one day?" ”

Xi Yutang was stunned for a moment.

"I just said maybe." Seeing that she was frightened, Shen Qi hurriedly eased his tone, "I won't go, but I'll leave him with someone available." After your cold poison was resolved, a big stone in my heart went to a large part, and I began to ponder this matter...... Tangtang, I received a letter. ”

"What letter?"

"The second sister sent it, and I used the code I left for her." Shen Qi lowered his eyes, "The letter said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has taken a fancy to Shen Ying's medical skills. Shen Ying, you know, right? Shen Huan's only son has a good talent for studying medicine. Si Li...... intends to let Shen Ying enter the palace. ”

Xi Yutang suddenly frowned, "Shen Ying was abolished by me, even if he is cured, holding the sword again will have an impact...... Si Li is planning to train the next you? ”

"I don't know." Shen Qi's face was expressionless, "I don't agree with Shen Ying, and this matter makes me very unhappy." But he is the crown prince and has his own considerations, even if it is to support Shen Huan's ascension, it is understandable to do so. That's why I thought of accepting apprentices, at least there can't be a person around Si Li who has a grudge against me and you. ”

Xi Yutang fell silent.

Shen Qi returned to her with the medicine basket on his back, learned her to sit on the ground, and began to process the medicinal materials on the spot, "Si Li grew up with us, you have to help him, and I want to help him too." I'm not interested in conspiracy, and I know that there are some things that I can't do, but Tang Tang ...... Si Li is the crown prince, you can't always see him as a child. The second sister said that Shen Ying's entry into the palace is ironclad, let me remind you, you have to leave a way back for the matter of the Medicine King Valley. ”

Xi Yutang said quietly, "You are my bottom line, Si Li knows, he doesn't dare to hit you with his ideas." ”

Shen Qi didn't raise his head, "What I'm not worried about is Shen Ying." He stopped what he was doing, looked at the person in front of him again and again, and said for a long time, "Do Si Li know about you and Yue Qingfeng?" ”

…… I didn't know it before, but I know it now. Xi Yutang tilted his head, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Just ask." Shen Qi thought of the sentence that Si Li asked himself about the day when the medical skill was greater, "You are working hard for the younger master, aren't you afraid that the sect leader Xi will be embarrassed], and he always felt awkward in his heart, "It is not too late for me to accept apprentices, it just so happens that I am bored all the way, and then you have to retreat, and it is good to find something to do for yourself." ”

"Okay." Xi Yutang smiled, "What you say is what you say, we are the biggest Xuantian." ”

Shen Qibai glanced at her and stopped talking.

After going back, Xi Yutang informed Yue Qingfeng and Xi Yulan, but the two did not give a reply at that time. However, a few days later, Liu Nian and Changge appeared in front of Shen Qi. The two of them were only fifteen or sixteen years old, although they started late, Shen Qi didn't care, there was no apprenticeship ceremony, and after briefly considering the common sense of the two, they officially started the course of teaching medical skills.

The long song is to Xi Yulan what Qiu Yuan is to Yue Qingfeng, dedicated to the master, Shen Qi understands his intentions, for the sake of the young master Lan, let him learn as much as he wants, anyway, in the end, he wants to return to Xi Yulan's side. But Liunian was different, when she decided to leave the dark guard team and stand in the sun from now on, it meant that Yue Qingfeng officially gave her to Shen Qi.

Studying medicine is a personal will, and he is willing to learn in the past few years, and he is also willing to follow Shen Qi, Yue Qingfeng and Xi Yutang are happy to see it. At least this Miss Secret Guard is strong in martial arts, and she does not lose Si Nian, and staying by Shen Qi's side is also a guarantee.

As for Si Li's letting Shen Ying enter the palace, Xi Yutang thought all the way, and was not sure whether he should write a letter to ask, so he ran to discuss with Yue Qingfeng. When the latter found out, he stopped her.

"If you let him deal with it himself, believe that he has his own considerations." He said, "Worry about everything, he will never grow up." ”

Xi Yutang had to give up, "I don't know what he's thinking...... Si Li has only been away for half a year, and I feel that he has changed a lot. ”

The palace is a place to eat people, and now the momentum of seizing the heir is flourishing, and the prince, as the target of the public, has no reason to sit and wait for others to attack. Yue Qingfeng knew that she was distressed that Si Li's change was not what he wanted, but he didn't want to say more. Xi Yutang should know in her heart that as long as she sits in that seat, many things will be involuntarily, and since she has decided to take sides, she will have to accept this fact sooner or later.

"Xi Yutang, you have to understand one thing." Yue Qingfeng looked at her indifferently, "The bloody rain and bloody wind of seizing the heir always started with itself. If you can't accept Si Li's changes, stop as soon as possible. ”

Xi Yutang was stunned for a long time, and then didn't mention it again.

……

All the way to the east, go to Yizhang Peak, to pass by Luoyang. None of them had a good impression of Luoyang, and they didn't want to meet Wei Han and Ouyang Xuan at this time, so they continued to hurry after a short stay.

Ouyang Xuan is having a bad time now, and the Medicine King Valley claims to the outside world that the Broken Yue Gate has ransacked their treasury and stole the priceless Fire Grass, but at this time, his illness has been inexplicably cured, and the suspicion on his body can not be washed away by jumping into the Yellow River. On the side of the capital, Emperor Yanping also had a strong attitude to ask the leader of the Wulin League to give an explanation for the assassination of the prince, and under the attack from both sides, the prestige of the Wulin League and the Broken Yuemen declined rapidly. At the same time, the Jiangnan Gang seized the opportunity to rise strongly, and now the struggle between the northern and southern factions is fierce, and only Xi Yutang and others have received news that there have been at least ten fires and incidents.

From the moment he left the Medicine King Valley, Xi Yutang sent a message to Lie Aotian. Her sworn eldest brother is now taking advantage of this shareholder wind to rapidly expand her territory and power, and she has fought with Xuantian Shu Gate twice, and with the cooperation of Yao Jiu, the master of Xuantian Shu, she won the joint attack of the Blood Killing Hall and the Broken Yue Gate, and successfully collected the entire Shu land.

At the beginning, Lie Aotian said that he wanted to develop eastward, not jokingly. Xi Yutang also had plans to let Qin Xuan return to Tangkou, and next, Hanzhong and Lianghu were their targets.

And the newly appointed Jinyi Division's servant Wei Qianhu has now just taken over the investigation of Ouyang Xuan, and the outcome is self-evident - it is already a common thing for Ouyang Alliance Leader to take the blame for others.

Otherwise, do you still plan to let Wei Han personally admit that he also sent a killer to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

The rivers and lakes are already in chaos.

The entire martial arts knew that the Xuantian Sect Master had a plan for the position of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and had also seen the young master of the Yue family maintain the leader of the Ouyang League for many years, and now the matter of the Medicine King Valley has spread, and the matter of the young master of the Yue family pleasing the Xuantian sect leader has become the hottest rumor in the rivers and lakes today. Everyone was curious about how these two would intervene in the dispute, but no matter how much they hoped for it, the Xuantian Sect and the Yue family just stood still, as if they were out of the matter, so that many sects that were still watching did not dare to act rashly before they made any moves, even if they wanted to wade into troubled waters.

The anxiety of outsiders does not affect Xi Yutang and others in the slightest. A month later, everyone entered Lingbei, and a zhang peak was in front of them.

Leaving Shen Qi, Liu Nian, Shaoguang and Changge at the foot of the mountain, the more Qingfeng and the Xi brothers and sisters walked up the mountain.

In July, the sky was like a child's face, the early morning was still windy and sunny, and before noon, it began to rain in the mountains. Xi Yutang followed the two of them all the way into the mountains, thinking that the martial arts master he was going to visit was the only person in the world whose martial arts had reached the realm of transformation, and his heart couldn't calm down anything.

After climbing two hills, their pace gradually slowed down. Yizhang Peak is extremely high, and the altitude is almost up to the Snow Mountain, and the main altar of the Xuantian Sect is just built in the mountains, but the residence of the old man of the Cold Cliff is on the top of this mountain.

On the way up the mountain, Xi Yulan walked in the front, Xi Yutang in the middle, and Yue Qingfeng Palace. The peach blossom forest all over the mountains was filled with mist, coupled with the drizzle, the three of them gradually felt that their eyesight was not enough. This is an extremely mysterious formation, every step must be careful and careful, the three people who were originally talking and laughing were silent at this time, and their whole body was running with true qi, for fear that they would make a mistake.

"Brother, how long is it left?" Xi Yutang spoke.

"It's coming." The silver-haired young man didn't look back, "Follow me, you're not good at formation, and it's going to be troublesome if you make a mistake." ”

"Is there really a door to death in this formation?" "What kind of death will it be?" she asked. ”

"Put away your curiosity." Xi Yulan pouted, "This array is extremely mysterious, you ......"

Before the words fell, he suddenly paused and turned back suddenly, and there was no shadow of Xi Yutang and Yue Qingfeng behind him.

"Tang Tang?!" Xi Yulan called nervously.

However, the only thing that answered him was the breeze through the woods.

In another place, Xi Yutang, who lost his brother's figure without paying attention, was also stunned. She suppressed the surprise in her heart and wanted to turn back to find Yue Qingfeng, but found that the young man who had been following her for some time was gone.

Looking around blankly, Xi Yutang's heart suddenly cooled by half.

What should I do, before I reached the top of the mountain, I felt the malice from the master of the formation......

Will you still be alive to see people?

At this moment, the three were forced to part ways.

……

An hour later, Yue Qingfeng, who first stepped out of the maze of the peach blossom forest, saw the old man of the cold cliff waiting at the top of the mountain.

The old man sat cross-legged on the boulder on the edge of the cliff with his back to him, his back was straight and straight, his gray hair was scattered at random behind his head, the silver foil embroidered crane was added to his body, the wind blew between the cliffs, the white hair flew up, and the wide cuffs hunted.

Yue Qingfeng coughed, and even Emperor Yanping, who didn't want to bow down, knelt on his knees without hesitation, "Master." ”

"Hmm." The old man replied indifferently, his voice was thick and powerful, and there was no sense of old age at all.

With just one voice, there was no follow-up, Yue Qingfeng was stunned, got up on his own, and looked back at the endless peach blossom forest, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. He walked to the old man's side, half a step behind, and learned from the old man to sit cross-legged on the boulder, the wind blew his black hair, and the smell of the earth and the cool drizzle suddenly hit his face.

"Master, are you okay old man?"

"I can't die." The old man of the cold cliff didn't even give a look.

"It does seem to be in good spirits, and the apprentice is relieved." A smile pursed on the lips of the young master, "Then I don't know when the master can release the senior brother and ...... Another guest coming out? ”

The old man of the cold cliff was silent for a moment, then glanced back at him, "It's cold on the mountain, you go and put on more clothes." ”

The younger master suddenly smiled, "Master really loves the apprentice." ”

"Then get off and cook."

“……”
