Chapter 285: Something
"Rong He, a disciple of the Rongyang Department under the Wujun Sect, was ordered to visit the Divine Monarch." An umbrella salutes and shows the invitation.
After a long time, a distant voice came from above, "You haven't opened this invitation?" Zeng Xiu asked.
Ah Umbrella was stunned, the invitation card said Guangxiu personally opened, how could she go to see it.
"You can open it up now."
Ah Umbrella hesitated, but still opened the invitation, suddenly his pupils shrank, and he suddenly raised his head.
"Do you do this deal or not?"
Ah Umbrella held the invitation card for a moment before nodding. Ah Umbrella clicked his head, and a small white jade bottle shot towards Ah Umbrella, and Ah Umbrella flexibly caught it, but the tiger's mouth was still cracked, and a trace of bright red blood flowed out. Without much hesitation, Ah Umbrella opened the jade bottle, and a small insect staggered out of the bottle, crawled to the place where there was a smell of blood, and then drilled in, and then crawled along Ah Umbrella's veins. Umbrella could feel it crawl through her arm, and then nested in her atrium.
"I've received the invitation, you can go."
"But I still have to go back to Wujun to solve one thing first." Ah Umbrella said, "Since I have already let this Gu worm into my body as you thought, I think you will not lack this time." ”
Zeng Xiu laughed silently, "I'll only give you three months, from the moment you leave Wujun Gate again, the transaction between you and Qinghe will officially begin." "A game before death can make death more desperate. Naturally, he can afford to give time.
Ah Umbrella turned around without hesitation, she wanted to leave Sutian immediately and return to Wujun.
It's just that before she left, Tang Jingya found her. At this time, Tang Jingya's face was even more tired. Knowing that Ah Umbrella was going to return to Wujun immediately, Tang Jingya didn't say anything, but just asked, "Do you want to be as fast as possible?" ”
"Nature."
"Then you come with me."
The first time Ah Umbrella saw Zeng Sinian, this man who was as warm as jade was sitting at the table drinking tea, and when Tang Jingya and her came in, he lifted the teapot and poured two cups, without spilling a drop of water. Those eyes are also like a faint piece of jade, not at all like the eyes of a blind man.
He just sat there, and it was already a painting.
Tang Jingya stepped forward. Took the teapot in his hand. He said softly: "This kind of thing, I'll do it in the future." ”
Zeng Sinian was noncommittal, just smiled faintly and said, "You brought a friend here." ”
Tang Jingya said with a smile. "She's the umbrella I told you about. She now wants to get back to Wujun as quickly as possible. Can you take her through the portal? ”
Ah Umbrella was not surprised. She had long thought that it should be so. However, she is neither a member of the Zeng family nor a big person, so it is indeed inappropriate to use someone else's teleportation array.
Zeng Sinian smiled slightly. "Okay, I'll take her now."
When Zeng Sinian said the good words, Tang Jingya's face had sunk, but soon put on a gentle smile, "I'll help you." At this time, Zeng Sinian waved his hand and rejected her, and Tang Jingya's face suddenly became ugly again.
Ah Umbrella followed behind the couple, Zeng Sinian walked in the front, first took the left foot, the other foot and then continued to drag up, Tang Jingya walked half a step behind him and walked beside him, with a gentle smile on her face, like a hostess. When the disciples who came and went saw the two of them, they inevitably saluted respectfully. Compared to the Wujun Sect, the hierarchy of the Sutian Sect is stricter.
"Presumably Uncle Guangxiu has already seen you." Zeng Sinian tilted his head slightly and said to Ah Umbrella behind him.
Ah Umbrella nodded, and thought that he couldn't see it, and was about to speak out, when he heard Zeng Si read: "Speaking of which, it is still thanks to Uncle Guangxiu that I can marry Xiaoya." ”
Tang Jingya's face turned pale when she heard this, and she still had a smile on her face.
"I didn't expect Guangxiu Shenjun to also take care of the work of the old matchmaker."
"Huh." Zeng Sinian smiled lightly, "There are not many people who dare to describe Uncle Shi like this, but even if Uncle Shi knows about it in the future, he will not be embarrassed for you because of this matter." ”
Ah Yu didn't answer again, she even felt that Zeng Sinian was not a blind man, how could a blind man see clearly.
Tang Jingya didn't say a word abnormally, just smiled, even if Zeng Sinian couldn't see her, she still had to laugh. At this time, Zeng Sinian suddenly stretched out his hand and held Tang Jingya's hand. Tang Jingya's face was hot, and she subconsciously made a lot of effort, she never used little strength, she pulled out her hand with this pull, and Zeng Sinian didn't hold it back.
The two of them walked half a step behind, but Ah Umbrella felt that they had to climb a mountain between them.
Ah Umbrella teleported back to Wujunwai, and the first thing he did was to return to Chaoyang Peak, reported his safety, and said that he had found a good place to retreat and cultivate, and she would not come back if she did not break through Yuanying.
Ah Umbrella took out the jade plate that Changyu gave him, he hadn't heard from her for a long time, ten years, and there was no news at all. But what he asked her to do, she still had to do.
At the same time, Zhao Lu, who was looking at the account books, suddenly raised his head, pinched his fingers and calculated, and was startled, his figure had already swept far away.
"You look for Uncle Xiao, she has gone to refine the road, you just wait."
The thirteenth floor of the refining road, the soul forest.
As soon as Ah Umbrella entered this small world, he felt that this place was much different from before, but he couldn't tell what the difference was. In the direction of the Soul Forest, the further he went, the more he felt that something was wrong. Stopped, Ah Umbrella saw a bald dove standing on the bare branches, it didn't call, just looked at Ah Umbrella, a pair of eyes listless.
After walking through the swamp and mist for half an hour, Ah Umbrella finally found the center of the Soul Forest.
"It's strange, this place should have a lot of geists." Umbrella held out her hand, and the gray mist slipped through her fingers. Continuing to walk inside, Ah Umbrella still didn't see a geist, let alone a soul crystal.
"So? Last time, I only took most of the soul crystals. Ah Umbrella couldn't figure it out, "Could it be that in just one hundred years, this soul forest has been dried up and fished by Wujun's disciples." Thinking of this, Ah Umbrella smiled again, this kind of thing, Wujun's disciples basically wouldn't do it.
Finally, Ah Umbrella reached the ancient tree, and the trunk of the ancient tree was still as thick, but the branches seemed to be retracted, not as wide as before. On the tree, there is not a single soul crystal now.
She suddenly remembered that day, the man in green clothes walked towards her with a fat and glutinous white cat in his arms. Later, he also exchanged his purple jade plate for her cyan jade card.
"But...... What exactly is the long fish asking me to fetch? Ah Umbrella looked at the ancient tree, and the branches were distinct. But now, there is only gray mist surrounding the ancient trees.
Maybe it wasn't in this place at all, Ah Umbrella didn't find anything, and was about to turn around and go elsewhere.
"Umbrella girl, there seems to be something in that ancient tree."
Ah Umbrella walked towards the ancient tree and knocked lightly, but it was actually hollow. A sharp slash of the hand swept through it, revealing the hollowed-out part of the trunk of the ancient tree.
In the hollow of the hollowed out of the tree, Ah Umbrella saw something like that, something she thought she would never see again in her life.
Suddenly, Ah Umbrella felt a chill down his spine.
Ah Umbrella raised his eyes, and the gray mist surrounding the ancient trees was blown away by the wind. (To be continued.) )
