Chapter 229: Caught off guard
Changxing left the little bird and returned to Xiushui Town.
Perhaps it was the benefits brought by the lifting of the family crisis, Changxing saw Meng Jing again, and felt that his complexion had softened a lot, and although his injuries had not improved greatly, his spirit was much better.
Changxing covered up the matter of Xiaoque and Grandma, and only pretended to have no intention of asking Changfeng's whereabouts.
Meng Guo didn't think much about it, and said: "Changfeng has never come back since she left home and entered Zixiamen that year, but then she suddenly came back once, saying that she had left Zixiamen. ”
"When was that, do you remember the patriarch?" asked Changxing.
Meng Jing thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't remember clearly, I have never paid attention to these things, and it is better to ask your third brother." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and was about to tell the little maid to invite Changkong over, but Changxing stopped with a smile: "The third brother is busy with affairs now, so I'll go over and find him." ”
Changkong has not officially taken over as the patriarch yet, but the family affairs have basically taken over with full authority, and his busy feet do not touch the ground, hearing that Changxing has something to ask, he put down the matter in his hand without saying a word, and retreats from everyone.
Changxing recounted the problem again, Changkong only thought about it for a while, and then blurted out: "It was the third day of the fourth month four years ago, I remember that Changfeng came back for one night, and left on the second day...... However, perhaps it was at night, she didn't come to leave, and no one saw when she left. ”
Changxing listened carefully, his face remained unchanged, but he secretly wondered in his heart: This time is about ten days later than his fall off the cliff, is it a coincidence, or is there some connection?
"Soon after Changfeng left, Qingfeng Zhenren sent someone to inform you of the news of your mother's fall. Changkong twisted his eyebrows and recalled.
"Also, that time I saw Changfeng coming in through the back door, and I asked her how to go through the back door, she said that she missed the wild fruits in the back mountains and wanted to pick wild fruits. ”
"Houshan?" Changxing asked lightly to himself, "Are there any wild fruits in April?"
Changkong heard that her tone was wrong, and asked with some concern: "Ninth sister, but what did she do to be sorry for you, seventh sister?"
Changxing looked up at the sky and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Changkong hesitated for a moment before he said, "I can't say it, it's just a feeling." That time the seventh sister came back, the cultivation had already laid the foundation! The whole person became very ...... I can't say it, anyway, Changfeng, she seems to have changed as if she has changed......"
"I also asked about you, Changhong, and Changlei, but Changfeng told me that she had already left Zixiamen! Changkong thought about it, and said it very slowly.
"When the third brother mentioned us at that time, how did Changfeng react?"
This time, Changkong paused for a long time before he spoke again: "I don't remember very clearly, I was so surprised when I heard Changfeng leave Zixia Gate, and I didn't pay much attention to the others...... However, I seem to remember that at that time, she once said, 'Is it okay for Changlei and Changhong to have a master in the Jindan period?' ”
Changkong nodded affirmatively, looked at Changxing and said, "That's right! That's what she said, no."
Yes, Changfeng's reaction to the situation of the ninth sister was a little strange. ”
"Strange, how strange?" Changxing asked.
"At that time, Changfeng just smiled, laughing a little penetratingly, and then said something quite strange - 'The fate of the ninth sister...... I guess you'll find out soon!'"
Changkong tried his best to imitate Changfeng's tone and expression, then shook his head again, and said, "I still don't know what she means, her expression at that time, as if she expected something bad for you, gloomy and compassionate!"
"After Changfeng left, I was a little worried, thinking about going to Zixia Gate, but before I could go out, Qingfeng Zhenren sent the news of your mother's death, I took the opportunity to ask about your situation, but said that you have successfully built a foundation and went down the mountain to practice, so I put my mind at ease. ”
asked some other questions, Changxing was basically sure, at that time, at the edge of the Feixian moat, Meng Changfeng must also be present, hidden in the dark to see the whole process, Changxing remembered that Xiaoque said that grandma had gone to the back mountain in a panic, what happened, it seems that only by finding Meng Changfeng can he explain clearly, but Meng Changfeng has never shown a trace since that disappearance.
After saying a few more words, Changxing saw that the Meng family was already on the right track, and the disciples were in good spirits, and the day they had agreed with Zhao Yu and Lin Tianyang to meet in the teleportation array was tomorrow, and now it was just in time.
Changxing got up to say goodbye, Changkong sent her all the way to the gate, Changxing hesitated, took out a piece of communication jade, handed it to Changkong, and said: "Third brother, actually, I have left Zixiamen now, this is my communication jade, if you need it in the future, you can send me a message." ”
"What?" Changkong's eyes widened, and he looked incredulous: his sisters, all of whom were well-behaved and clever, why did they all leave Zixiamen?
"Could it be that Zixiamen did something excessive, forcing you to leave?" Changkong grabbed Changxing's shoulder and blurted out.
"Why Changfeng left, I don't know, I left for some reason, you will know later. Changxing shook his head and hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't say anything about his affairs in Dongyanzhou, he only smiled: "I'm doing well now, don't worry, third brother, you are busy with affairs now, you should also pay attention to rest, and don't delay your cultivation." ”
"Well, I will. Changkong didn't want to say much when he saw Changxing, although he was worried in his heart, he didn't ask any more, just sighed: "I always felt that the patriarch was harsh and unreasonable, but now I understand his hardships." ”
Changxing nodded, although she did not go deep into the affairs of the Meng family, but under the influence of Tianshu Peak day by day, she understood a lot more than before, the Meng family has been in trouble for a long time, although there is this crisis as a stimulus, but if you want to have new development and change, it is still not easy to advance.
After looking at Changkong's meridian dantian, Changxing took out a bottle of pill from the Qiankun Ring, handed it to Meng Changkong, and said: "Third brother, this is the Purifying Pill, although you are a three-spirit root, but the spiritual root is not pure, so the cultivation is much slower, there are a total of three pills in this bottle, which is enough to remove the impurities of your spiritual root, and if you practice diligently, you will be able to build a foundation in less than five years." ”
This elixir, Changxing has long forgotten which one it is
Jun, it's still a meeting gift from a real person, she has a special physique, and the pill is of no use to her, and this time it just happened to come in handy.
The surprise in Changkong's eyes was greater than the surprise, he was able to take out such an elixir casually, and it was still three pills! What kind of background is the ninth sister? At this moment, Changkong finally believed that Changxing was really doing well!
Changxing resigned from Changkong and was about to leave, but he heard a delicate voice outside the door scolding: "Blind your dog's eyes! Dare to stop me! Get out of the way!"
At this moment, Changxing and Changkong are standing in the gate, although the door is open, but there is a shadow wall to block it, and they can't see the scene outside the door, they can hear this sound, Changxing and Changkong glanced at each other: it was Meng Changlei.
Immediately, Meng Changlei, who was wearing a pink dress, had already burst in, and the long whip in her hand had not yet had time to be withdrawn.
Meng Changkong frowned, and just as he was about to speak, Meng Changlei had already raised his long whip with one hand and pointed at Meng Changxing and said, "Why are you here?"
"If you come, I can't come?" Changxing ignored Changlei's aggressiveness and calmed down.
As she spoke, Changxing nodded goodbye to Changkong and walked towards the gate, but she paused again in an instant, because she saw three male cultivators who were walking around the shadow wall.
The three foundation-building male corrections are Lu Che, Xu An, and Li Ping'an.
The moment the three of them saw Changxing, their faces suddenly changed greatly, and their six eyes stared directly at Changxing, and the shock and confusion in them were the same!
Changxing sighed secretly in her heart, she had thought about the scene of reunion thousands of times, but she didn't expect it to be in such an abrupt scene, which caught people off guard.
The strange silence made Chang Lei notice something, and hesitated: "You guys, you look like you've seen a ghost, what's going on?"
"It's okay!" the four of them were awakened by Changlei, and replied almost in unison.
"Are you alright?" Changlei's suspicious gaze slid over the four of them one by one.
"Why did the tenth sister come back suddenly?" Changkong had already noticed the abnormality between the four of them, interrupted with a smile, and saluted Xu An: "I've seen Xu Xianchang!"
Xu An followed Gu Chengtian to the Meng family twice, and it was not the first time he had met Changkong, so he nodded and saluted Meng Changkong in return.
"And who are these two immortal elders?" Meng Changkong looked at Lu Che and Li Ping'an.
Only then did Chang Lei retract her gaze: "It's my two senior brothers from the same door." ”
As he spoke, he looked suspicious and said, "Didn't the family send a distress signal? What's going on? And we heard outside that there is a female disciple in the family who is one to four, is it true?"
The four of them hurried all the way to Xiushui Mountain, and when they saw the Meng family coming in and out of nature from a distance, they knew that the Meng family was fine, so they simply inquired about the situation first, and then went to the three houses to investigate, but as they heard, the three houses were already empty, and there were no clues in the house, as if the people inside were missing at the same time in an instant, which was weird and gloomy.
The four of them rushed to Meng's house again, Changlei was about to go home in a hurry, but after all, she hadn't gone home for a long time, and the disciple who guarded the door didn't recognize it, so she spoke out to stop her, Changlei's temper was already impatient, and she was full of doubts at this time, so she shook her hand and slammed into the door, but she didn't see the three behind her
The man frowned almost at the same time.
The disciple of the Meng family was beaten, knowing that he was not an opponent, and besides, the incoming patriarch and Miss Nine were inside the door, so they must have known the situation, so they didn't stop it anymore, and Ren Changlei rushed in.
Changkong heard Changlei say that he rushed back because of the family's request for help, his face eased a lot, and he answered Changlei first, only smiled and invited Lu Che and the others into the hall to drink tea.
From the moment Lu Che saw Changxing, his whole mind was confused, and after confirming it again and again, he had completely determined that the person in front of him was Meng Changxing, where did he still have the heart to drink any tea, and he just wanted to ask Changxing what was going on, so he hesitated and didn't move.
