Chapter 45: Teaching Disciples
When Yue Qianlong woke up, his legs had faded to the mud color, but both feet were frozen red and purple, and he was unconscious when he poked his feet, but Su Jue didn't have anything to do.
"It's night, it's hard to walk at night, and today we set up camp here. ”
At this time, the snow was gone, and Su Jue was collecting firewood and grass on the side, he briefly built a shed with branches, and covered the ground and the bracket with wolf skins. Because the flesh and blood had faded, there was no fishy smell of these furs, and they were slippery and soft to sit on, and they were more solid than mink.
"What a fool, we should have used this to wrap our feet just now. ”
"These dead things are not necessarily safe, and if it weren't for the cold at night, I wouldn't have used them for warmth. ”
"There is water, food, and shelter here, but I don't think it's worse than Ning Wangfu. ”
"Isn't it worse than Ning Wangfu?"
"You won't let me enter the Ning Wang's Mansion, now you can at least sit with me and be willing to talk to me, just this Canglang Yuan is better than the cold steps of the Ning Wangfu. ”
When he was in King Ning's Mansion, Yue Qianlong waited outside the door every day, but Su Jue never opened the door once, he thought that this person would retreat in the face of difficulties, but he didn't expect Yue Qianlong to sit on the steps of the door for several nights.
"You drink some water, Mu Yan really prepared some for us, and we will go to find a water source early tomorrow morning." ”
Su Jue took the water bladder and took a sip, just this little water was enough for them to last for two more days at most, if they couldn't find the trees that could take water, they were afraid that they would really be in a desperate situation.
"Sleep first, I'll keep vigil. ”
"Let me keep watch for the rest of the night, you haven't rested all day, and I'll call you again in the second half of the night." ”
Su Jue didn't refuse, shrunk into the shed and closed his eyes. Yue Qianlong sat in front of him, stirring the bonfire with branches from time to time, looking very comfortable, I don't know what Yan'er is like in Taihua Mountain, do you still remember her incompetent mother.
Northern Regions, Taihua Mountain.
When I saw Ning Chen again, he was outside the Jade Void Forest, and the man stood with his back to him, and in his hand was a half-withered bamboo branch. Zhao Qingyi was about to speak, but when he stepped up, he saw the white silk blindfolded by the man, Zhao Qingyi shook his hands, the man was obviously facing him, but he still didn't move.
"Is it Zixi over there?"
"No, brother, it's me. ”
"Yes, Lightcoat?"
"Senior brother, what's wrong with your eyes?"
The young man stroked the white silk like snow and said lightly: "It's nothing. ”
"Was it an injury at the bottom of the mountain?"
"Hmm. ”
"Is it because of Senior Brother Qingque?"
"No, it's all my fault for not being proficient in my studies, and it has nothing to do with Qingque. ”
After Meng Qingque was poisoned, this person hurriedly went down the mountain, and then he has been missing, every time he asks about Zixi, his words flicker, it seems that Ning Chen used a pair of eyes to keep Meng Qingque safe, and Zixi and Master Chongzhen should have known for a long time.
"Has Senior Brother been here all this time?"
"Sort of. ”
Zhao Qingyi took a few steps forward, wanting to lift the white silk from this person's eyes, "My medical skills are also good, let me take a look at the wound." ”
"No need. ”
"What, if Senior Brother can believe Zixi, won't he believe me?"
Thinking about it, it happened to be able to break Zhao Qingyi's thoughts, Ning Chen tore off the silk silk and simply opened his eyes.
Except for the dark red blood scabs, the two withered eye sockets were empty. This person's two eyeballs were actually gouged out alive, Zhao Qingyi's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and there was more resentment in his eyes that had always been like water.
"Master said, how is this injury?"
"Uncle Chongjin has done his best, but it's just a pair of eyes, and it's gone. ”
"Senior Brother really protects Qingque, I'm afraid that even his own flesh and blood are just like this. ”
Ning Chen put the white silk back on, and he walked a few steps with the cuizhu beside him, seeing that he had generally adapted to the life of blindness.
"How long has the light coat been in the door?"
Zhao Qingyi said: "Twenty-one years. ”
"Qingque has been in the door for nineteen years since he was two years old, and he is also your junior brother, and I hope that Qingyi will treat him more in the future. ”
"What does Senior Brother mean by this explanation?"
"Nothing. ”
"Are you going to hide here for the rest of your life?"
But since he woke up, Ning Chen had heard Yi Yanyin's voice from time to time, and even saw her figure, every time he thought of him, he was in a trance, and he couldn't distinguish between people and gods, Ning Chen knew that it was the silver snake that had drilled into his body that was working. Yi Yunyin is an illusionist, and he may have fallen for that man's illusion a long time ago. Now he can only rest assured if he closes himself off.
"Qingyi, why are you here?"
Li Ran came from the depths of the bamboo forest, and Zhao Qingyi hurriedly bowed and said, "I've seen Uncle Li." ”
"The disciple has seen the master. ”
"You go back, you can't come to the Jade Void Forest if you have nothing to do in the future. ”
Li Ran was banning her, Zhao Qingyi glanced at Ning Chen, and had no choice but to return to the pivotal residence in the distance.
"Ning Chen, have you thought about it?"
"The disciple has already decided, please Master do it. ”
Ning Chen begged for strength to abolish his martial arts cultivation, this person has been practicing in Taihua for more than 20 years, and he can only come out on top in every competition in the door, and his character and cultivation are all impeccable. The reason why Twilight Zhaoming accepted Ning Chen as a disciple was to pave the way for him to become the head of the house in the future, but he didn't expect that the will of heaven would be unpredictable.
"You are not my disciple now, but you are cultivated by the master, if you want to abolish your cultivation, you need the consent of the master. ”
"Then ask Master to convey it on your behalf. ”
"The head of the sect has just said that this law is not possible. ”
"Master," Ning Chen immediately knelt down and bowed, "The disciple knows very well that he has been confused by the demon arts, and if the head of the sect does not allow the disciple to cut off the tendons and veins, he will be able to cut off the future troubles." ”
"It has been made clear that there is no difference in your sanity. ”
"But Master......"
"Just a pair of eyes, how can you be self-conscious because of this, and waste the hard work of me and the head of the house over the years. ”
"The disciple implored the master to seal the disciple's veins. ”
"Stubborn. ”
Ning Chen kowtowed after hearing this, and knocked on the small bamboo shoots that had not yet grown, and his smooth forehead was dripping with blood after a while.
"I promise you, for the time being, seal your veins. ”
"The disciple has another wish. ”
Say. ”
The eldest disciple of the teaching suddenly changed to Zhao Qingyi, and the news spread in Taihua after the morning class, people thought it was a rumor, but Zichen Hall Li Ran personally announced it, and also showed everyone the silk book with the seal of the master. Zhao Qingyi finally understood what the man said yesterday, and he had already thought about this decision.
"What did Ning Chen do wrong, why did he suddenly replace him?" Meng Qingque stood in front of Zhiming Hall and continued to question: "Senior Sister Qingyi, I always thought you were a person who didn't fight or rob, you tell me what's going on?"
"This is the decision of the boss, how do I know?"
"Why don't you know? In terms of martial arts, you are still under me, and the principles of medicine may not be as good as Zixi, what kind of evil did the head of the sect actually replace you with a big disciple? You said that you don't know that there are ghosts!"
"So, junior brother, do you think this son should be your own?"
Meng Qingque was furious at once, "Zhao Qingyi, don't pick on me, who doesn't know that the senior disciple of the sect is very likely to be the next head?" I mean you are making trouble behind Ning Chen's back, you must have framed him for the position of the head of the sect, right?"
It was simply unreasonable, Zhao Qingyi was about to push this person away when she felt a sword aura, she immediately flashed, and when she turned her head, she saw the awe-inspiring sword light in Meng Qingque's hand.
"You're going to do it with me?"
"This son is Ning Chen's, you are not qualified to sit!"
Zhao Qingyi smiled and said, "Senior Brother Qingque, haven't you always hated him for hurting you at the sword trial conference?
"This is my business with him, but if he is pulled down from the position of the senior disciple by others, I Meng Qingque just can't see it, don't talk nonsense with me, do it now, if you win me, I will obey you, and from now on, I will not say much to you to bow and worship." ”
Among Taihua's peer disciples, only Ning Chen and Meng Qingque have practiced to the realm of turning qi into a sword, and Zhao Qingyi has majored in Jinshi Dan since she was a child, so she has no chance of winning if she does it with this person.
"Qingque, if you fight with me now, you are breaking the door rules. ”
"I've broken a lot of rules, and it's not bad for this one. ”
Meng Qingque was just about to control his qi when he felt a strong palm wind attacking, and when he came back to his senses, he had already been slapped several times.
"Criminal, how can you be so undisciplined!" Li Ran appeared on the side of the door, he glanced at Zhao Qingyi, and roared, "So offensive to the disciple of the teaching, still don't kneel?"
"Master......"
Li Ran waved his sleeves again, and Meng Qingque had already been forced to kneel in front of the two.
"Admit your mistake. ”
"I'm not wrong. ”
"Meng Qingque!"
The young man still looked stubborn, "Unless Master lets me see Ning Chen, I will ask him face to face what happened." ”
"I'll go to the three provinces now. ”
"Why did I think about it? Where did I be? Shouldn't there be an explanation for such a big change in the door suddenly? Why has Ning Chen been missing until now? What else can there be if there is no weirdness in this?"
"If you figure it out in the Three Provinces Cliff, I will let you go to see Ning Chen for the teacher. ”
Meng Qingque bowed in court, glanced at Zhao Qingyi, and spontaneously went to the cliff of the three provinces.
The cliffs of the three provinces in autumn are not as bitter and cold as in winter, but the mountain breeze at the mouth of the cliff is still the same, and Meng Qingque, who is sitting on the top of the cliff, has an angry face, and is holding his hands on his chest and looking straight ahead. At night, Li Ran asked Xiuting to deliver steamed buns, but he threw them under the cliff.
"Huh?" Meng Qingque looked at the steamed buns beside him, why did he come back again? There were three of them, one was not less, "Even you bullied me, even you think I deserve it, right?" He threw it far away with a force, but they came back after two cups of tea.
"What do you mean? Who is it, come out for me!Zhao Qingyi? Do you think I will receive your affection?" Meng Qingque turned around, but what he saw was the woman in green clothes, "Lingxi, why are you here?"
"Why did you throw away the steamed buns, and you are going to starve yourself to death?"
"You picked it up, then I'll eat it, I'll finish it right away!" Meng Qingque picked up the steamed buns that had been stained with several layers of ash by the three people, and stuffed them into his mouth in three or two bites, and after a while, he was choked with red faces, "cough, cough, cough, cough...... Ahem......"
Su Lingxi threw the small water bladder he was carrying and said, "Drink it quickly." ”
'Gu Dong Gu Dong' filled half of the water before Meng Qingque came to his senses, and there was a lot of sand sticking to his mouth.
"Lingxi, why are you here?"
"I heard something today. ”
"Oh?" Meng Qingque said curiously, "Is it related to Ah Jue?"
