The fifth layer of Hanging Sword Mountain, the residence of the elders of Taishang.

The garden is small but very exquisite, and in the pavilion in the northeast corner of the garden, there is a stone table and two stone benches.

Lu Li and Shen Muqing sat opposite each other, and a pair of Go chessboards were placed on the stone table. The chessboard is golden yellow in color and exudes a faint fragrance, which is made of the extremely precious golden fragrant wood.

On the chessboard, the white seeds are crystal clear, more brilliant than diamonds. The sunspots are as black as ink, warm as jade, and delicate to the touch. The two types of chess are made of white stone and black jade, respectively, and both are extremely precious.

Lu Li insisted on black, Shen Muqing insisted on white, and the two fell quickly, which made people dizzy.

"I won again."

Let's go, a sunspot fell, Lu Li said with a smile.

Shen Muqing pouted and thought about it, suddenly dropped two white seeds, and said with a smile: "Who said you won, I am one step ahead of you." ”

"Not like that."

The corners of Lu Li's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly: "It's originally a five-in-a-row chess, if you play two pieces at a time, even if the gods come, you can't win." ”

"People don't care, I won anyway." Shen Muqing glared at him, his eyes full of threats.

Lu Li seemed to understand what she meant, and had to raise his hand to surrender: "Okay, you won." ”

The two venerable Yuanying peak monks actually used a Go board made of golden fragrant wood to play backgammon, but fortunately they were in their own homes, otherwise they would definitely be laughed at by other monks.

"Lu Li, Senior Ji gave you the Shenglong Pill, when are you going to take it?"

Putting away their chess pieces, Shen Muqing looked at Lu Li. His face was full of gentleness: "Master Su went to the Xuantian Continent, and the masters over there are like clouds, and the Hanging Sword Sect wants to develop." There are bound to be all kinds of pressures. Now that you have the Shenglong Pill, I hope you will retreat again and break through the Merge Realm as soon as possible. ”

"Huh?"

Lu Li was stunned when he heard this, and asked strangely: "Do you really think so?" ”

Shen Muqing nodded, and a touch of firmness appeared on his pretty face: "I heard that the Hanging Sword Sect was almost wiped out, and now my parents and Aunt Xiao are in the Hanging Sword Sect, in case I encounter something like last time." What are we going to do? Even if they succeed in escaping, in case of Liang Jun, Sister Wanwan. Sister Qin Zhu and they died, I think I will also suffer for the rest of my life. Lu Li, if you are still in Huaxia, of course people want you to accompany me every day. But this is not Huaxia. ”

The voice fell. Lu Li opened his mouth slightly, staring at Shen Muqing, a little unable to believe that these words came from Shen Muqing's mouth.

In his memory, from his freshman acquaintance to various separations and reunions later, it seems that Shen Muqing has always been a sensual and naughty girl. But what she just said made Lu Li both happy and sad.

A moment later. He left his seat, walked over to Shen Muqing and squatted down. Looking up at her eyes, he said seriously: "As long as I am here, this kind of thing will never happen." Those people we are familiar with, they will only run out of life and die right, but they must not be killed. ”

"Mu Qing, I just hope you can spend every day happily. With your talent, if you don't like to cultivate, you can even not cultivate. Because, you still have me. ”

"Lu Li—"

Looking at each other, Shen Muqing only said these two words, and he couldn't say anything else.

Lu Li took Shen Muqing's hand and said in a deep voice: "That Ascending Dragon Pill, I was going to give it to Master Su, but unfortunately he has already left Huaxia Island. Great Elder Cai Hengyan has been at the peak of Yuanying for fifty years, and he is more suitable than me to take the Shenglong Pill. Moreover, Ji Haoyang went to the Boundless Sea to look for medicinal materials, and he would return in a month at most. Then ask him to refine a few. ”

Shen Muqing heard this and said: "You can decide these yourself, let's continue to play chess!" ”

"Okay."

Lu Li smiled and returned to sit down.

As soon as he touched the chess piece, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the courtyard, and at the same time, two voices shouted: "Disciple He Zhongyang (Cai Hengyan) has something important to ask to see Elder Taishang." ”

"Huh? How did they get here? ”

Hearing that voice, Lu Li frowned, looking puzzled.

Especially when he heard the word "important matter", he couldn't help but look at Shen Muqing embarrassedly, and said with a wry smile: "They came together, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter this time." You wait here for a while, and I'll go back. ”

"You go get busy, don't worry about me, I'll go find Sister Wanwan." Shen Muqing said with a light smile.

"It's fine."

Waiting for Shen Muqing to leave, Lu Li strode away and appeared at the gate of the courtyard. He opened the courtyard door and looked out, and found that in addition to He Zhongyang and the others, Ling Daozi was actually there.

"What?"

"Uncle Shi, something is wrong." He Zhongyang's face was solemn, and he spoke first.

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Li frowned slightly and asked.

Hearing this, He Zhongyang and Cai Hengyan turned their heads at the same time, their eyes turned to Ling Daozi, Ling Daozi took a step forward, and arched his hand and said: "Young Master, Master Su led us to explore the terrain of Phantom Beast Mountain, and found that Phantom Beast Mountain is very suitable for establishing a sect. Just as we were about to set up our defensive formation, an elder from the outer gate of the Blue Sand Gate suddenly appeared, and he threatened us to leave, otherwise we would have to do it. ”

Lu Li was stunned when he heard this: "Blue Sand Gate? ”

"Exactly. The Blue Sand Sect is a six-rank sect, and it is said that their head is already a master in the late stage of the Merge Realm. Probably worried that something had been missed, Ling Daozi took over the topic and quickly introduced Lanshamen.

Generally speaking, the Lansha Sect is considered to be at the lower middle level among the Six-Rank Sects. Of course, it is definitely much stronger than the Hanging Sword Sect.

According to the information of Xu Qing and other disciples, Lanshamen controls a narrow strip of land thousands of miles north of Phantom Beast Mountain, more than 1,500 miles from east to west, and there are two powerhouses in the late stage of the Merge Realm, four in the middle of the Merge Realm, and seven in the early stage.

As for the Yuanying Realm monks, there were as many as 100 people.

In other words, if there was no Ji Haoyang in charge, the current Hanging Sword Sect would be a dish in front of the Lansha Gate.

"What did Master Su say?"

After listening to Ling Daozi's introduction, Lu Li took a deep breath and looked uncertain.

"Young master, the area selected by Master Su belongs to the south of the middle line of the Phantom Beast Mountain, and it does not belong to the Blue Sand Gate, and the Blue Sand Gate has no reason to drive us away, and the other party is extremely arrogant, obviously treating the Hanging Sword Sect as a soft persimmon. What Master Su meant was to invite Senior Ji to go and sit in the town, and I would arrange the mountain protection array as soon as possible. With Ji's seniors here, they don't dare to mess around. Ling Daozi said.

"Huh?"

Lu Li shook his head: "You are a step late, Ji Haoyang left Huaxia Island five days ago and went to the Boundless Sea to look for medicinal materials, and it will take about a month to come back." ”

"Huh?" Ling Daozi was shocked when he heard this: "How is this good?" If Lanshamen chooses to do it at this time, wouldn't it be dangerous for Master Su to do it? ”

Finding that Ling Daozi's face was full of panic, Lu Li glared at him dissatisfied, and snorted coldly: "Although Ji Haoyang is staying in the Hanging Sword Sect, he is neither a disciple of the Hanging Sword Sect nor an elder of the Hanging Sword Sect, why should we let the family go out?" ”

"Fighting for territory is not a crisis of annihilation, if you have to ask outsiders for help for this little thing, I think the Hanging Sword Sect will simply disband!"

As soon as these words came out, Ling Daozi and the three of them were immediately stunned. (To be continued......)
