Chapter Twenty-Four: Picking Up Friends

I saw Shangguan Yu stand up with one hand, patted the soil on his body, stretched his waist again, and looked at Leng Gongzi with a wicked smile while moving his shoulders.

Xiao Hanfeng exclaimed: "Shangguan, you're fine!"

Shangguan Yu shook his legs and wrists, and said lightly: "It's okay." ”

Xiao Hanfeng laughed for a long time before calming down, and then said, "You're okay and still scare me!" I just thought something had happened to you!"

Shangguan Yu's gaze turned to Leng Gongzi's stiff body, and said proudly: "No, how can you trick him over?"

When the words fell, Xiao Hanfeng immediately understood, he deliberately set up a trap for Leng Gongzi!

Leng Gongzi's original attitude towards him has changed a lot, and he is kind enough to take the initiative to heal him, it is really not easy for an arrogant person like him to have such a big change in his attitude. However, Shangguan Yu calculated him at this time! This made him suddenly angry! His hatred now was not only back, but also deeper than before!

Leng Gongzi said angrily: "Shangguan Yu! You villain! I took every precaution, but I didn't expect it to be planted in your hands, you actually took advantage of my soft-hearted heart to calculate me, where can you be regarded as a manly man!"

Who knew that Shangguan Yu didn't care about any manly husband at all, and said with a shy smile: "I didn't say that I was a manly man, I was just a prodigal cultivator, where is it worthy of the name of a gentleman who is the owner of a gambling house!"

The yin and yang weirdness he said in this sentence meant something, and it was full of ridicule that even a fool could hear, and Xiao Hanfeng and Jin Yuan, who had provoked him, couldn't help but snicker.

Leng Gongzi was even more angry: "Shangguan Yu, don't deceive people too much! Don't forget, that kid's antidote is still in my hands!"

When the words fell, Xiao Hanfeng and Shangguan Yu both smiled and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Leng Gongzi thought that they were afraid, so he laughed triumphantly: "If you want him to live, let me go quickly, otherwise, we will consume it here!"

Shangguan Yu slowly approached him, tilted his head and glanced at the moon haze pinned to his waist, suddenly smiled, and said with an evil smile while leaning his hand to his waist: "What's so difficult about the poison of white lemon?"

When Leng Gongzi saw his hand stretched into his belt, his face turned red, and he wanted to dodge but his body couldn't move at all, so he could only watch and be anxious: "You stop!"

Shangguan Yu looked at him arrogantly with his eyebrows raised as if he was deliberately teasing him, and his hand was stretched into his belt inch by inch, the speed was extremely slow, and the strength was gentle, which provoked Leng Gongzi to be angry, and his face was jealous.

But he teased and teased, but his hand didn't touch more than the belt, and finally took off the moon haze flower and immediately stopped.

Leng Gongzi said hatefully: "Since you can solve it, why did you let me threaten it before?"

Xiao Hanfeng was also confused at this point, and he also wanted to know why. But who knew that Shangguan Yu actually fell into Leng Gongzi's ear and only explained to him alone.

I saw Shangguan Yu hanging his head and chuckling, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Because I forgot to tell you that the stamen of the moon hazy flower must be stained with virgin blood to be useful." His voice was hoarse and low, and his warm breath hit Leng Gongzi's ears, and he couldn't help but have a sense of charm.

Leng Gongzi's eyes widened suddenly, and he didn't know what he was going to say or what to say after opening his mouth for a long time.

"You...... You're ......"

Shangguan Yu laughed twice, held the moon haze flower in front of his eyes, and said sincerely: "Shhh, don't let others hear it, otherwise you won't blame me." Also, thank you for the flowers. After saying that, he put the moon hazy flower on his elbow and rubbed it, and then swaggered up.

Xiao Hanfeng was confused, and reluctantly chased after Shangguan Yu and asked, "What did you just tell him?" I also want to know why you have to listen to his threats when you have a way to detoxify?"

Shangguan Yu seemed to be deliberately keeping it secret for him, but he just shook his head and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, you don't need to know." ”

Xiao Hanfeng didn't do it: "Why don't I need to know?" I just want to know, you tell me." ”

Shangguan Yu was also helpless: "You really don't have to know, there's nothing to say." ”

Shangguan Yu turned around to avoid him, but he didn't tell him. But the more he didn't tell him, the more interested he became, and the two chased one after the other and fled, making a lot of trouble for a while.

Just when the two were circling each other, Jin Yuan, who had been quiet on the side, suddenly spoke: "What is that?"

When the two of them heard this, they turned their heads to look at his gaze, and saw that there was a little red light flashing in the stone pile where the stone python's body had collapsed, which was very eye-catching.

Shangguan Yu took the joke, his face returned to a bit of seriousness, and walked to the stone pile to take a look. He reached out and dug through the cracks in the stone pile for a long time before he touched a round thing, which was not large, but could be held in the palm of one hand, and the surface was very smooth, without the roughness of the stone surface at all.

He took out his things and spread out his palm to see that there was a bright red transparent bead lying on the palm of his hand. The bead is blood-red, crystal clear, flawless from the inside out, and looks like a drop of blood.

Xiao Hanfeng had never seen beads of such a high quality, so he couldn't help but exclaim: "What is this?

Jin Yuan next to him seemed to recognize this thing, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "This is the pulse bead!"

What is that?

Shangguan Yu also seemed to recognize this thing, and his face also showed a little surprise: "Red as blood, transparent as water droplets, look at this color is one in a million." But it's a good thing!"

Xiao Hanfeng said, "Is this thing any use?"

Shangguan Yu rarely liked something so much, and said happily: "Don't underestimate this bead, this stone python can be as flexible as a real snake, and it depends on it!"

Xiao Hanfeng obviously didn't believe it: "It's just this little bead?"

Jin Yuan smiled on the side and explained for him: "Xiao Gongzi may not know the effect of this pulse bead. The reason why the meridian bead is called the meridian bead is because it can generate meridians and nourish the meridians, and the meridians mentioned here are not just simple repairs to the damaged meridians, but can grow the meridians out of thin air. No matter what kind of physique you have, as long as you take it, you can change the direction of your veins, and change it as you wish, so that you can change the structure and limits of your body, so that others don't know where your life is, and they don't know the way your spiritual power works, and you will naturally win. And he can also help you easily practice a lot of exercises that ordinary people can't bear, and get twice the result with half the effort, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's reborn.

In addition, if someone's meridians are damaged, it can repair them in an instant, so that the meridians are intact and have no future troubles, which is a healing holy product. It's a pity that this thing is born and raised, extremely precious, even if the purity is only 30% of the purity, it is unattainable, this one is flawless, and it is lucky to be able to see it in my lifetime!"

Xiao Hanfeng also stared at it with a strange look after hearing this, and said curiously: "This thing is so powerful!"

Shangguan Yu played with it against the moonlight for a while, and secretly said No wonder this stone python is so fierce, it turned out to be blessed with pulse beads, and they really picked up a cheap one by mistake.

While the three of them were carefully inspecting the treasure, there was a sudden sound of firecrackers rising into the air. Shangguan Yu looked up and saw that outside the small hole in his head, there was a flower-shaped firework on the other side exploding in the air.

Shangguan Yu recognized that this was the code of the ghost domain, it seemed that Bai Feng had already arrived in this vicinity, and it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time.

He pulled out four or five stamens from the stamens of the moon hazy flower, then walked back to Leng Gongzi's side, put the stamens petals on the ground beside him, and said, "You can move in an hour, and these stamens petals are left for you, enough for you to take your subordinates out." Then he turned to leave, but after taking two steps, he stopped, as if he had suddenly remembered something, and walked back again.

He pulled out a willow leaf dart from his waist and gently stuck it on the ground, and a layer of enchantment instantly formed around it.

He looked at him sincerely: "Leave it to you to defend yourself, if someone comes to trouble for a while, she will never hurt you." ”

Leng Gongzi saw his actions, and his heart was really depressed, calculating him for a while, and protecting him for a while, what does this mean!

"You'd better remember ......"

Before he finished speaking, Shangguan Yu had already flown out with Xiao Hanfeng and Jin Yuan Imperial Sword resolutely, how fast and how fast it was, if he hadn't seen his ability, he really thought he was afraid.

Just staring at them like that, watching their figures gradually shrink until they disappeared completely, Leng Gongzi gritted his teeth and scolded a few times, and finally could only helplessly wait for the ban to be eliminated, there was no other way.

Although Shangguan Yu pretended to be seriously injured in order to deceive Leng Gongzi before, in fact, his body was not all pretended, he did receive many heavy blows when he fought against the stone python, and his spiritual power was also consumed hugely, and he was really tired and tired at this time. He insisted on using the last bit of spiritual power he had left to take the two of them to walk sixty or seventy miles in one go, and finally landed in front of an inn to rest.

The three of them gobbled up a big sweep of the dinner table, and only after they were full of wine and food did they recover some physical strength and spirit.

Xiao Hanfeng wiped his mouth, leaned back on the back of the chair, took a long breath, and said with satisfaction: "It can be regarded as being able to rest steadily, it's really not easy!"

Jin Yuan, who was pouring tea on the side, couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "I think, it's Shangguan Gongzi who is not easy, but he is contributing all the way." ”

When Xiao Hanfeng heard this, he also nodded quickly, and agreed: "That's right, if there is no Shangguan this time, I'm afraid we would still be in that cave now, and we might have been poisoned to death by the miasma." Shangguan, you are still powerful, I will say that it is right to follow you, anything can be solved, and it is really worth making you a friend!"

Shangguan Yu was closing his eyes to recuperate, and when he heard his words, he glanced at him tiredly, with an expression that he had become accustomed to, and said, "If you really treat me as a friend, will you trouble you to use a little dim sum when you cultivate in the future, okay?" Then it will help me a lot." ”

Xiao Hanfeng knew that he would definitely say this, after so many years, this kind of conversation has always remained the same, and he has long been used to it, so he cut it casually and completely left it behind. Shangguan Yu naturally didn't expect him to listen to it, so he treated it as a mantra, and even didn't take it to heart after saying it.

I only heard Xiao Hanfeng say again: "You came out to finish your errands this time, are you going back to Qingmiao Peak again?"

Speaking of this, Shangguan Yu's face sank a little: "No, I want to go back to Yanlan." ”

Xiao Hanfeng couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this. Since Shangguan was sent to Qingmiao Peak by his father at the age of five to apprentice, he rarely went home, and only returned once in three or four years on average. Maybe it's because he left home when he was young, and he has never relied on Yanlan to be home. Although he also cares about his parents, and often sends letters back, he rarely goes back to see it in person, and this vague attitude really makes Xiao Hanfeng a little incomprehensible, so in his heart, he always feels that Shangguan is not at home when he was young, so he doesn't have such deep feelings for Yanlan.

Shangguan Yu, who has never returned home, actually took the initiative to return to Yanlan this time, and he still had a worried expression on his face, which was really enough for Xiao Hanfeng to be surprised for a while.

"You said you wanted to go back to Yanlan, why?"

Shangguan Yu was not surprised that he was asked why when he went home, so he only said lightly: "My father is now in Wujiangling, and Yanlan is only guarded by my mother, and there are some troubles coming recently, I don't worry, so I want to go back and see." ”

Who knew that Xiao Hanfeng snorted when he heard this: "I thought there was a big deal, but it turned out to be this." Don't worry, what kind of place is Yanlan, how can anyone find trouble? You think too much, don't go back to Yanlan, come with me to Jiangyin. ”

Shangguan Yu was puzzled: "What are you doing in Jiangyin?"

Xiao Hanfeng jumped down from the chair, suddenly came to his senses, and moved to Shangguan Yu's side excitedly, and then explained: "Do you remember, I said when I was in the gambling house that I was here to find you." ”

Shangguan Yu only remembered this after hearing this, originally he wanted to ask him why he came to him, but it happened that things were crowded together, and he forgot about it later, and suddenly said: "Remember, you didn't come to me just to ask me to go to Jiangyin, right?"

Xiao Hanfeng snapped his fingers: "That's right! I'm looking for you to go to Jiangyin." You are not in Qingmiao Peak during this time, so you didn't receive an invitation from Jiangyin, and naturally you didn't know that Jiangyin Gu was going to hold a Qingqiu banquet on the fifteenth of this month. ”

Shangguan Yu originally thought it was something big, but now he heard that it was just a banquet, so he immediately gave him a blank look: "It's just a Qingqiu banquet, and I don't like to join in this kind of excitement, as for letting you come so far to find me?"

Xiao Hanfeng suddenly became serious: "This Qingqiu banquet is different from those boring banquets in the past. The Gu family deliberately made the banquet huge this time, and also sent out invitations, covering almost all sects, large and small, which was intentional.

On the surface, as in the past, the banquet was held to allow Taoist friends to discuss the Tao and communicate with each other, and at the same time, they could also walk around each other to promote feelings, which was at most a place of recreation. But this time, he was actually trying to make a trial. ”

Shangguan Yu said: "Trial, what is the trial?"

Xiao Hanfeng said: "Of course, it is a young talent who tests various sects. This time, the Gu clan opened a trial ground in his jurisdiction, allowing each family to select the best clan relatives and disciples, and let all the young generations participate in the trial. On the one hand, it is to train juniors, and on the other hand, it is also a time for various sects to compete and show their faces. This kind of gathering is no longer an ordinary place to play, but a symbol of the authority of the immortal path.

If you don't go to this kind of occasion, it is tantamount to despising the hundred schools, and if you think about it, have you ever attended a banquet of the Immortal Dao in all these years? If you are an ordinary person, it is fine, no one will pay attention to the nobody, but you are the young master of the Shangguan clan! This kind of identity, how can no one pay attention to it.

I'll tell you the truth, the reason why I came to you this time is because I heard that the four major families other than the Shangguan family are holding back to see you this time, half of their main purpose this time is to see who this mysterious Shangguan son is, if they can't see you this time, they will definitely be in trouble, and then the Shangguan family will probably be affected by you!"

Shangguan Yu listened to him talk endlessly, and felt more and more tired, he had always been most annoyed by this kind of time-wasting entertainment, but if he didn't go, he would be truthful, so he had to be patient and said bitterly: "It's really troublesome." ”

Xiao Hanfeng patted him on the back and comforted: "You don't have to be so unhappy, anyway, Uncle Shangguan, as the sect master of the Shangguan clan, will definitely go, won't you be able to meet at that time?" But I heard you just said that Uncle Shangguan is now in Wujiangling, calculate the time, he shouldn't have time to go back to Yanlan first, and he will definitely go directly to Jiangyin." Even if you go back, your aunt will definitely drive you to Jiangyin to join your uncle. ”

Saying that, he sighed and complained: "Even an unsuccessful person like me can't be spared, and I have to follow my eldest brother." I went to look for you as soon as I received the news, who knew that you were not in Qingmiao Peak, I was afraid that you pushed the invitation as usual under unknown circumstances, and when the time came, you offended a hundred families and didn't know it, so I came all the way to find you. ”

Shangguan Yu didn't appreciate it, and ruthlessly exposed: "I think you want to find someone to accompany you, right?"

Xiao Hanfeng's careful thinking was punctured, and he immediately pursed his lips, lowered his head in embarrassment, and muttered in a low voice: "What's the matter, I am obviously good for you." ”

Shangguan Yu was secretly troubled for a while, he hadn't even returned home a few times over the years, let alone showing his face in front of other sects, he, the young master of the Shangguan clan who had never appeared, was probably already talked about by others for a long time, and if he didn't appear again this time, it would indeed be a little unreasonable. There was no way, but in the end, he sighed lightly and resigned himself to his fate: "Okay, I'll go for a trip." ”

When the words fell, he turned his head slightly, and the afterglow fell on Jin Yuan, who had not spoken for a long time, and then he remembered that there was a person beside him who had just experienced the disaster of annihilation, and they were here to discuss whether to go to the banquet or not, and I don't know if people have their own place to go. Thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt that I was pouring salt on other people's wounds, and I couldn't help but feel embarrassed and ashamed, so I stopped mentioning this topic.

Thinking that he couldn't just leave people alone, he could just ask a question, so he said: "Jin Yuan, your family is in trouble, I don't know what your plans are in the future?"

Jin Yuan had been listening to them all the time, but when he suddenly heard Shangguan Yu ask himself, he was stunned for a moment, his face gradually became lonely, he shook his head weakly, and said sadly: "I grew up in my uncle's house since I was a child, and I have no relatives except my uncle, so I really don't know where else to go at this moment." It seems that he can only wander around first, and then slowly find a place to live. ”

Shangguan Yu pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Since you have nowhere to go for the time being, then it is better to go with me first." ”

Jin Yuan thought he had heard it wrong, and said in a daze, "Huh?"

Shangguan Yu continued: "No matter how we say it, we can be regarded as acquaintances, I see that your cultivation is not low, and we can get along, if you want, you can be a guest of the Shangguan family." ”

Jin Yuan didn't seem to expect Shangguan Yu to take him in so casually, and said tentatively: "Shangguan family's doorman?"

Shangguan Yu thought that he was wronged, so he said: "If you have a better place to go in the future, I will never force you to stay and let you come and go." It's just that you always need a place to fix before this, and my family happens to lack a helper like you, so we can take what we need from each other, I wonder if you feel wronged?"

Jin Yuan hurriedly saluted: "Where is it, Gongzi is willing to help me when I am in danger, and it is too late to be grateful, how can I feel wronged." I'm just afraid...... It will be troublesome to Childe. ”

Xiao Hanfeng laughed and replied on behalf of Shangguan Yu: "He is the master of the Shangguan family, he can accept whoever he wants, what's the trouble?" Besides, we are also friends in trouble, why be polite between friends, don't shirk it." ”

When Jin Yuan heard this, his expression showed his expression, he bowed, and said gratefully: "Then thank you Gongzi." ”
