Gu Qingyan and Su Xin were led by the maid, and when they entered the mountain gate, they went in different directions from Hanyan and them, and they didn't see the sects that Hanyan and they met later.

"So, we're the last to arrive?" The attendant in front of him roughly said a few words to them, and Guan Xin asked after thinking about it.

The attendant thought about it roughly and replied: "Back to the young sect master, yes, the mountain gate will be closed after today." ”

Guan Xin nodded, it was not too late for them to go out, they just came from a tour of the mountains and rivers all the way, and their footsteps were naturally slower.

Han Yan and Lin Rui didn't care about this, observing the surrounding environment, Lin Rui could also see people from other sects walking outside.

I wanted to ask who was coming, but before I could say anything, I saw a small group of people walking towards them diagonally.

They seemed to have just done something exciting, smiling and talking, and when they saw someone in front of them, they restrained their playful appearance.

The attendant took the lead in saluting and pointed out the comer: "Xu Shao is in charge." ”

The man at the head looks delicate, and the jade Jue tied around his waist under the uniform dress is different from others, but it can make people see his identity is different at a glance.

The demeanor is elegant and polite, and when he shook hands and saluted, Han Yan saw that the sword spike of his sword hilt was a whole jade wrapped in gold threads, although the pattern could not be seen completely, but it could be seen by paying attention to it.

Han Yan thought about it, and roughly remembered that this person was Xu Ye, the second son of Xu Baishi, the head of the Huaqing faction, and the eldest son of their family went out to discuss swords a few years ago and unfortunately died, so the second son Xu Ye took the position of the young master.

The attendants had to say a few words to them, and Han Yan and the others knew from the conversation that it was the disciples of the Tibetan Sword Sect who had asked the Huaqing faction to teach each other on the streamer platform today, and the Huaqing faction won this round, so they came back laughing all the way.

Guan Xin seems to have a good relationship with Xu Ye, and he is two or three years older than Xu Ye, so he has a bit of the gratification of the eldest brother when he saw his younger brother become a weapon, and patted Xu Ye's shoulder to express his approval.

"The elder brothers will settle down and rest first, and then the younger brother will bother later." Xu Ye spoke very politely, but the titles of brother and younger brother naturally brought the relationship between them closer.

The group of people said goodbye to each other for a while, and the attendant took Han Yan and the others to the courtyard where they stayed.

On the way, Lin Rui and Hanyan muttered in a low voice: "Xu Shao said that the cousin of the Tibetan Sword Sect was invited to them?" ”

Han Yan nodded, Fang just mentioned it.

Lin Rui was silent, Han Yan looked at Lin Rui, and knew that he should have something to say, but now the occasion is not quite right, so he didn't ask any questions, just waited until he got to the room to discuss.

Except for a few people who greeted them on the road, there was no further fork in the road behind them, and the attendants quickly arranged for them to stay, and Han Yan and Lin Rui also temporarily said goodbye to Guan Xin and Xingchuan.

Closing the door, before Han Yan could ask anything, Lin Rui spoke first: "The cousin Bai Gongzi they said should be Bai Shu." ”

"Is there anything wrong with this person?" Han Yan asked.

Bai Qing has no son, and his daughter Bai Jiaoyue is weak and not a candidate to inherit the sect, so a long time ago, Bai Qing chose a nephew from the family who suited his heart to his side in person, personally passed on martial arts, and let him participate in the decision-making of some major matters in the Tibetan Sword Gate, and the person he chose was Bai Shu.

Han Yan still knows this basic information.

Lin Rui waved his hand, Bai Shu did not have any criticized gossip in the rivers and lakes, and the people of the Tibetan Sword Gate also acquiesced to Bai Shu's identity, but he suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't get it accurately: "I always think that the hidden pile of the Peach Blossom Stream has reminded us that the intention of the Tibetan Sword Gate is not pure this time, but we can't check it carefully, and now I heard Xu Ye say that, Bai Shu has been inviting various sects every day recently, don't you think there is any meaning in this?" ”

Han Yan also noticed it, but when they first entered the mountain gate, everything was not clear, so he only observed for the time being, and saw that Lin Rui said what the two of them had in their hearts, Han Yan said: "Maybe there is, after all, the Tibetan Sword Gate is also in the Biluo Palace, and now they are all juniors like Bai Shu, in fact, it is also obvious." ”

As he was talking, Han Yan remembered that since the mountain gate and Gu Qingyan separated from them, Beiming was like an automatic stealth, and followed them silently all the way, and after arranging the residence, he didn't see Beiming again, so Han Yan asked: "What about Beiming?" ”

Lin Rui subconsciously looked around and shook his head, he had heard that Gu Qingyan's secret guards were all elusive, and he thought it was an exaggeration, but in the past few days, he has somewhat believed it.

Han Yan only thought that Beiming was used to inquiring about the news, so he didn't ask any more.

As for Gu Qingyan, she and Su Xin followed the maid all the way, and after passing through a round arch stone door, the murderous aura of the original stone carving gradually dissipated under the transition of greenery and blooming flowers, and Gu Qingyan also felt a little more comfortable in her heart.

There was nothing to say all the way, and Gu Qingyan didn't feel anything, just took a look at the surrounding scenery from time to time, and the style of the stone carving was still occasionally visible. Pouted, he said in his heart: In terms of the environment, it has to be a peach blossom stream, with trees and flowers, birds, beasts, insects and fish, small courtyards, buildings, and winding waters.

Gu Qingyan didn't have a very specific sense of direction, and he didn't know what direction he was in now, but Su Xin could estimate that they were heading towards the courtyard in the southwest direction.

As I walked, an extremely calm lake appeared in front of me, and there were three pavilions distributed on the lake, and one main pavilion had a long pattern.

The four corners of the eaves are double-roofed with green tiles, and at each corner stands the Rui beast of flying birds and double fishes, with jade beads in its mouth, and the pavilion is open on three sides, and the curtain is hung like smoke. The closed side is sealed in the style of wooden lattice sheer, which is not as dull as a wall, and the potted plants planted at the fence are blooming and more vibrant. Roughly speaking, the whole pavilion is also transparent and elegant.

Adjacent to it with a short bridge corridor is a secondary pavilion, which is open on all sides, and all of them hang down the gauze curtain like the main pavilion, and put potted plants.

The other two pavilions are separated from the main pavilion by some distance, one on the left and one on the right, forming a triangle as a whole, and there are conspicuous corridors in the middle.

This is not unusual, the lake not far from Gu Qingyan's Pure Heart Courtyard is similar, but the number of pavilions is only one.

Gu Qingyan pondered that he couldn't see the decorations inside, otherwise he would be able to know that these three pavilions were located here, and their owners' thoughts.

Gu Qingyan's mind floated on these three pavilions, but Su Xin's mind was on this maid, with her vision and experience, she always felt that this maid was not ordinary.

Seeing that the maid was leading the two of them to the place where her master's eyes gathered, Su Xin pulled the corner of Gu Qingyan's clothes, meaning that she felt a little strange.

Gu Qingyan looked at Su Xin slightly, winked at her slightly, and motioned her to wait and see.

This maid was surprised that she had noticed it from the beginning, and if she didn't say anything else, she said that they had also seen a few subordinates along the way, and those subordinates would subconsciously salute when they saw this maid, which showed that the status of this maid was not low.

Moreover, Gu Qingyan is a person who practices martial arts, looking at the body and looking at the movements, you can judge whether the person in front of you has a martial arts foundation, compared to the pace of Su Xin and this maid when walking, Su Xin is as down-to-earth as ordinary people walking, and on the other hand, this maid has light steps, and what is agile and light to avoid some stones, Gu Qingyan feels that this is a bit of kung fu.

Sending such a person to guide them and put it on others, Gu Qingyan felt that it was overkill, and put it on herself, her first reaction was that either her identity was exposed, someone wanted to see her, or she wanted to test herself, in short, she must have another purpose....

After taking a few steps further, Gu Qingyan seemed to hear a very soft sound of the piano, and as they moved forward more and more, the sound of the piano became clearer and clearer...

Walking to the lake, Gu Qingyan's footsteps paused slightly, in addition to the sound of the piano that was already clear in her ears, she could also see the stone pavement that was flush with the lake as if it was looming, this slate pavement was not easy to detect from a distance, if she hadn't taken a closer look, she didn't know that there was such a road on the water surface.

It's just that a maid is not a little inappropriate to take a guest like this, and....

"Shall we walk straight over there?" Gu Qingyan asked hypocritically.

Su Xin is also in a dilemma how to get off her feet, her master has kung fu to be able to keep water in her shoes and socks, but she can't, if it gets wet, won't it be troublesome?

Although the maid turned around and answered Gu Qingyan very calmly, it seemed that there was a little surprise that Gu Qingyan would ask this question, but she didn't seem to be worried that Gu Qingyan would not be able to get by: "Back girl, don't worry, the water surface will not wet your shoes and socks." ”

Gu Qingyan nodded, didn't say anything first, just turned his head and reminded Su Xin: "Be careful." ”

Then he was afraid that Su Xin would still have some concerns, so he stretched out his hand, looking like he was going to take Su Xin's hand, but he actually wanted Su Xin to hold it.

Su Xin was touched by Gu Qingyan's movements, and when she raised her eyes to look at Gu Qingyan, she was a little moved, and Gu Qingyan couldn't help but smile slightly.

Su Xin held Gu Qingyan's hand, and felt that Gu Qingyan gave her a force, but this tacit understanding only existed between her two masters and servants, in the eyes of the maid, it was just Gu Qingyan's action as a master to let the maid support her.

Stepping on the stone pavement like this, from a distance, it looks like the three of them walking on the water, and up close, you can see Su Xin carefully lifting the corners of her and Gu Qingyan's skirts, trying not to get wet as much as possible.

And Gu Qingyan's eyes kept falling at the feet of the maid walking in front of them, and soon, his eyes condensed, and when he raised his eyes to look at the back of the maid, Su Xin saw Gu Qingyan's sneer.

The stone path they walked was actually very straight, and they could pass the pavilion without going to the cloister and then return to the shore, but when they were about to pass the pavilion, they were stopped by a maid standing in front of the pavilion.
