Chapter 16: The Return of the Wanderer

On the mountain road towards the ancestral hall, Zhou Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaohuan walked one after the other, and in front of them were the Qingyun disciples who led the way. On both sides of the mountain road, the verdant woods are still the same as before, dense and vibrant, and a faint morning mist is drifting in the trees, and everywhere you can see the branches of leaves, grass and wildflowers, and crystal dew drops gently fluttering in the breeze.

In the distance, there is a crisp and pleasant birdsong in the depths of the dense forest, which makes people feel clear in the ears, as if they are in a fairyland.

The Qingyun disciple didn't say much along the way, and just after going to Tongtian Peak, Zhou Xiaohuan said more.

Although over the years, he has followed Zhou Xiannan to the north and walked the world, but Qingyun Mountain is the first time to come.

Zhou Xiaohuan looked at the various scenery of Qingyun Mountain, and exclaimed from time to time.

Especially when he saw the water unicorn, Zhou Xiaohuan was even more curious, such a big beast was also rare.

Qingyunmen is worthy of being a great sect that has been established for more than 2,000 years, and this kind of heritage is not something that ordinary sects can have.

After passing the blue water pool, Lu Xiaohua jumped from the mountain steps.

caused Zhou Xiaohuan to be happy.

Lu Xiaohua stood on the mountain steps, quite proud.

Zhou Xiaohuan pointed to Lu Xiaohua and said, "Grandpa, you see it's the talking deer." ”

Zhou Xian's face still maintained an indifferent demeanor.

Lu Xiaohua's appearance here can only show one problem, that is, the Qingyunzi who met by chance ten years ago has now become the Qingyun Patriarch of Qingyunmen.

In fact, when he learned about Qingyunzi's name, he had been secretly paying attention to everything about Qingyunzi.

He still remembered the shock in his heart when he saw the three-tailed demon fox and the six-tailed spirit fox dead in the black stone cave near Xiaochi Town.

It was precisely because he and Xiaohuan went early that they also got the supreme weapon Xuanhuo Jian on the demon fox.

Although later, he personally returned the Xuanhuo Jian to the Incense Valley.

Until the Demon Sect invaded Qingyun Gate, Qingyun Ancestor swept away the four major sects of the Demon Sect in a battle, making the people in the Demon Sect terrified.

Zhou Xianfang only knew what kind of character this Qingyunzi was.

Although he has only had a one-sided relationship with Qingyunzi, according to his opinion, that Qingyunzi may not really be the real Qingyun Patriarch.

It's not that he has any evidence, it's mostly a gut feeling.

He has traveled south and north for so many years, playing the world, and seeing more people, as a lost disciple of Qingyunmen, Zhou Zhou Xian naturally knows that there is really no person in this world who understands the secret of immortality.

Even the ancestor of Qingyunmen may not have this ability.

But the gang of people in Qingyunmen are not stupid, how can they admit the identity of that person?

In addition to the land of Shenzhou, there is a barren and vast world, with the heavens above and the underworld.

Zhou Zhou Xian would rather believe that the current Qingyunzi was reborn from the reincarnation of the former Qingyunmen Patriarch.

Or like him, this is also a disciple of Qingyun Sect who lost a certain vein in the past.

Just let him believe that Patriarch Qingyunzi is not dead, he is really hard to believe.

In the past ten years, he has been trying to find clues about this Qingyunzi in the world, but unfortunately, there is really not everything in this world that he can know, and he has almost nothing.

In the past ten years, Qingyunmen has become more and more prosperous.

This also made him gradually dispel his doubts, but his curiosity about Qingyunzi's identity finally drove him to Qingyunmen.

About to see that Qingyunzi again, Zhou Zhou Xian's heart that had not been touched for many years suddenly had a feeling of anticipation, he looked towards the depths of the mountain road, and saw the majestic eaves in the depths of the dense forest, under the eaves, there seemed to be a sword light flying.

……

Lu Fengqiu stood in front of the ancestral hall with his hands in his hands, and watched the Qingyun disciple walk up with Zhou Zhou Immortal and Zhou Xiaohuan.

"Ancestor, people have brought it."

The disciple bowed towards Lu Fengqiu.

Lu Fengqiu bowed slightly.

The disciple brought someone and left directly.

This is the ancestral hall of the patriarch, except for important days, ordinary disciples rarely come here.

"The wanderer returns with yellow leaves, and his temples are covered with severe frost."

"Welcome back, Poor Dao has been waiting for you at Tongtian Peak for ten years, and I thought you wouldn't come."

Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhou Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaohuan with a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

Zhou Zhou Xian looked at Lu Fengqiu, only to feel that he hadn't seen him in the past ten years, as if Shaohua had not changed, but the person in front of him had not changed at all.

But when he heard Lu Fengqiu's words of welcoming you back, the suspicion in his eyes suddenly rose.

He couldn't help but secretly ask, what did he mean by this? Does he really know who I am?

Although Zhou Zhou Xian had already guessed, when he really heard this, he was still shocked in his heart.

Thinking of the first time the two met in Koike Town, this person once showed a meaningful gaze, and now that I think about it, it turns out that this person has already recognized his identity in the first place.

It's just that at the time, this one didn't plan to pierce.

Now, this person can actually expect that he will come to Qingyun, and this kind of ability is beyond his imagination.

Could it be that Master Zu really didn't die?

Unfathomable, really unfathomable.

With just one sentence, Zhou Zhou Xian once again felt the unfathomable depth of this Qingyunzi.

However, Zhou Zhou Xian still chose to pretend that he didn't know anything, and said, "What do you mean by what the real person said? ”

Lu Fengqiu smiled but did not speak.

Let Zhou Zhou Xian look at the hairy in his heart.

Zhou Xiaohuan on the side muttered: "Grandpa, didn't you say that you are the descendant of Qingyunmen?" Lu Zhenren is not wrong at all. ”

Zhou Zhou Xian glared at Zhou Xiaohuan and said, "Adults speak, children don't interject." ”

Immediately, Zhou Zhou Xian arched his hand towards Lu Fengqiu and said, "The real person's magical powers are amazing, as soon as Xiaohuan and I arrived at the foot of the mountain, someone came to answer us, which is really amazing." ”

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said, "It's nothing, when the realm is reached, some small means will naturally be understood." ”

When Zhou Xian heard this, he secretly guessed, how high is this realm?

Above the Taiqing Realm?

At this moment, Zhou Xiaohuan's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he said in surprise: "Wow, what a powerful swordsmanship!" ”

I saw that in the open space in front of me, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu were fighting inseparably.

Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu on the side, and didn't shout to stop.

Instead, he said directly to Zhou Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaohuan: "You two, come with the poor road." ”

As he spoke, Lu Fengqiu walked towards the ancestral hall.

The door of the ancestral hall was open, and it was still dim inside, and even the incense and candles in the depths of the darkness seemed to be sleeping, and everything was so quiet.

Outside the ancestral hall, the clanging sound of Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu's fighting method formed a stark contrast with the inside of this ancestral hall.

Lu Fengqiu stepped into the ancestral hall.

Zhou Zhou Xian glanced at Lu Fengqiu's back, then looked at Zhou Xiaohuan who was about to follow him into the ancestral hall, and then said to Zhou Xiaohuan: "Xiaohuan, you wait outside, I'll go in alone." ”

Zhou Xiaohuan asked, "Why?" ”

Zhou Zhou Xian looked at the deep hall and said, "It's easy to get in, it's hard to get out, you're a treasure, you can't easily fall into the pit dug by others." ”

Zhou Xiaohuan was puzzled: "Grandpa, what are you talking about......"

Zhou Zhou Xian said: "Wait and see, don't ask more." ”

After that, Zhou Zhou Xian carried the "immortal guidance" and entered the ancestral hall.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaohuan stomped his feet and had to wait outside.

……

Lu Fengqiu stepped into the high threshold, and a faint sandalwood fragrance suddenly greeted him, and a huge shadow gently poured out from the depths of the hall, gently blocking the light that still existed just now on the outside of the ancestral hall.

Huge red-painted pillars stood in a staggered manner in the middle of the hall, supporting the majestic hall, and the yellow curtains hanging from the ceiling dome hung quietly beside the pillars, many of which looked a little worn.

This kind of dilapidation seems to be more able to show a taste of vicissitudes, after the baptism of time, even the yellow curtain is gradually aging.

The past seems to be frozen here.

The ancestral hall was very quiet, and there was hardly a sound to be heard, only Lu Fengqiu's footsteps echoed in the silent shadows around him.

In the hall, there is a huge offering table, and countless incense burns brightly and quietly, just like mysterious and strange eyes, watching the figures shuttling through the shadows of the temple.

Lu Fengqiu turned around the thickest pillar in the hall and walked behind the low-hanging yellow curtain, Lu Fengqiu stopped.

In front of it is an open space with three rows of seven futons.

On the futon in the middle of the first row, a figure sits, motionless, as if it were a stone statue.

That's Dao Xuan.

Dao Xuan has been here for ten years, and in the past ten years, he has never stepped out of the scope of the ancestral hall, let alone left Tongtian Peak.

Here, he seems to have no desires.

In front of the futon, there is a large offering table, and the fruit offerings are placed all over the table, and in the center is a large incense burner, in which only three fine incense sticks are inserted, and the light smoke slowly floats up.

Through the smoke-filled offering table, in the deep darkness behind the table, a myriad of spiritual tablets could be faintly seen, each of which seemed to have handwriting on it, placed squarely on the spiritual tablet in the shadows.

Located at the top, the spirit tablet in the center reads "Qingyunzi Patriarch's Position".

Lu Fengqiu looked at the top spirit card, and a touch of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Every time he saw the position of Qingyunzi Patriarch, he had a feeling that he had hung up.

Fortunately, he knew in his own heart that the one above was not him.

Originally, according to Dao Xuan's intentions, this spiritual position was to be removed.

But Lu Fengqiu let him stay, after all, he was an impostor, and there was no reason for the real Qingyunzi to not even be able to stand the incense.

Maybe I heard Lu Fengqiu's footsteps.

Dao Xuan reacted, got up from the futon, and said respectfully towards Lu Fengqiu, "Ancestor." ”

Lu Fengqiu bowed slightly.

At this moment, Zhou Zhou Xian walked in.

In such a strange atmosphere, Zhou Zhou Xian suddenly felt hairy in his heart.

Dao Xuan saw Zhou Zhou Xian, and it seemed a little strange why this face, who had never appeared in Qingyun Gate, could enter the ancestral hall.

Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhou Zhou Xian just one person coming in, and said with a smile: "Why don't you bring your granddaughter in with you." ”

Zhou Zhou Xian snorted: "She is a little girl, different from me." ”

Lu Fengqiu smiled, this old thing is really a thief.

However, he really wanted to bring Zhou Xiaohuan into Qingyunmen.

Zhou Xiaohuan's talent is very high, if he is personally taught, he will definitely be able to become the future star of Qingyunmen in the future.

However, Zhou Zhou Xian seemed to see his intentions.

Lu Fengqiu didn't care either, and said to Zhou Xian: "Let's make incense." ”

Zhou Xian paused, glanced at Lu Fengqiu, and then slowly walked to the offering table, looked at the countless spirit positions shrouded in the shadows, and took a deep breath.

Unexpectedly, I finally came here.

Zhou Zhou Xian took out three sticks of fine incense from the incense bag next to the incense burner, carefully lit the candle flame next to it, took a step back, stood three feet in front of the offering table, and respectfully held the incense and bowed three times.

Dao Xuan looked puzzled and asked from the side, "Ancestor, is he?" ”

Lu Fengqiu said with a smile: "I am a disciple of Qingyun Sect who is outcast. ”

Zhou Yixian, who was making incense, heard this, and his heart chuckled again, he really knew.

When Dao Xuan heard this, he suddenly realized that this was the case.

Dao Xuan has been cultivating in this ancestral hall for ten years, but he has made a lot of progress.

With Lu Fengqiu pressing, Dao Xuan didn't have such a big idea of controlling the Zhuxian Sword in his heart, plus Lu Fengqiu gave him and Wan Jian a lecture every once in a while.

Today's Dao Xuan has a little taste of desirelessness.

However, human nature does not mean that change can be changed.

Although ten years is not a short time, it is still impossible to eliminate those obsessions in Dao Xuan's heart.

Dao Xuan and Wan Jian have been guarding together in the ancestral hall for ten years, and the words they have said can be counted on one hand.

Lu Fengqiu once saw Wan Jianyi looking at Dao Xuan's gaze, and a faint trace of hatred flashed.

Zhou Xian worshipped the ancestors of Qingyunmen.

Lu Fengqiu took him out of the ancestral hall again.

Wan Jianyi came out of nowhere, and he was sweeping the floor again.

Zhou Zhou Xian followed behind Lu Fengqiu, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

He came here today to ask Lu Fengqiu what his identity was, but as soon as he arrived at Qingyunmen, he seemed to fall under Lu Fengqiu's control.

It seems that his intention to come has also been known by the other party, and this feeling of being expected by others made Zhou Yixian feel a sense of powerlessness.

has been in the world for so long, and there are not many people and things that he can't see.

The Qingyun Patriarch in front of him is counted as one.

At this moment, Lu Fengqiu suddenly looked back and asked, "You should be the thirteenth generation disciple of Qingyun Sect." ”

Zhou Zhou Xian was asked coldly by Lu Fengqiu, and subconsciously said, "Yes......"

Lu Fengqiu nodded and said, "Have you ever thought about coming back?" ”

Zhou Zhou Xian came back to his senses and said, "Come back to what?" ”

Lu Fengqiu said: "Of course, I went back to Qingyunmen to be a Supreme Elder or something." ”

Zhou Zhou Xian shook his head and said: "That's okay, I'm used to being free, if I really go back to the mountain, I really feel uncomfortable." ”

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said, "That's the same." ”

Zhou Zhou Xian looked at Lu Fengqiu's back, full of doubts, could he really be the ancestor master?

At this time, the contest between Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu outside the ancestral hall had entered a white-hot stage.

I only heard Lin Jingyu burst into a shout, and the sword trick was introduced, and the blue light rose sharply, and the sword of the dragon slashing sword rose into the air as if it had turned into a green dragon.

The others were in mid-air, and the dragon sword had already been slashed with a sword, although it was quite far away, but the sword rushed forward, unstoppable like a green dragon, shooting out a deep groove on the ground, and rushed directly towards Zhang Xiaofan.

Lin Jingyu has always been arrogant, from childhood to adulthood, Zhang Xiaofan is the little brother who eats ash behind his ass.

But in the past two years, this little brother's skills have become increasingly comparable to him, and sometimes when the two compete, Zhang Xiaofan will suppress him.

This makes Lin Jingyu's arrogant heart how easy to accept.

Competing with Zhang Xiaofan again today, Zhang Xiaofan's cultivation has made a lot of progress, which made Lin Jingyu's heart rise again.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan's figure suddenly disappeared in place, making Lin Jingyu's sword slash into the air.

Zhou Xiaohuan applauded loudly on the side, applauding Lin Jingyu for a while, and applauding Zhang Xiaofan for a while, like a wall grass.

At this moment, Lu Fengqiu said loudly: "Stop, I have something to tell you." ”

The voice fell.

Zhang Xiaofan escaped from the air and fell in front of him.

Lin Jingyu had no choice but to accept the dragon sword and stand with Zhang Xiaofan.

Lu Fengqiu looked at the two of them and said slowly: "The ten-year period has arrived, and Tianyin Temple has never given an explanation to Caomiao Village, so you two should go to Tianyin Temple." ”

When Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan heard this, their faces showed strange expressions.

Lin Jingyu's face was more excited, while Zhang Xiaofan was a little more complicated.

Then, Lu Fengqiu continued: "When I go to Tianyin Temple, there must be many twists and turns. ”

"Poor Dao will give you a word."

"Xiaofan, you need to remember that when you encounter something, you will be decided, and if you keep it, you will suffer from it, and act without shame."

"Shocking Yu, you need to remember that you must do everything according to your ability, and you can't blindly be strong."

"Remember, behind you is Qingyunmen."

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu bowed to Lu Fengqiu at the same time and said, "Disciple respectfully follow the teachings of the patriarch. ”

Lu Fengqiu bowed slightly, brushed his hand and said, "Go, go early and come back early." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu saluted again, and then went down the mountain.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu did not leave Qingyun Mountain immediately, but went back to each peak to say goodbye to their brothers.

Zhang Xiaofan returned to Dazhu Peak, and Lin Jingyu returned to Longshou Peak.

……

At this time, Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhou Zhou Immortal on the side and said with a smile: "I heard that your retreat cultivation is good?" ”

Before Zhou Zhou Xian could say anything, Zhou Xiaohuan said: "What my grandfather is best at is oiling the soles of his feet. ”

Zhou Zhou Xian listened, and his face was a little dark.

The next moment, Lu Fengqiu smiled slightly, pinched the trick in his hand, and two tornadoes came out of thin air, rolling up Zhou Xiaohuan and Zhou Zhou Immortal and flying towards the Phantom Moon Ancient Cave.

Wan Jianyi, who was still sweeping the floor, swept the ground as if he hadn't seen anything.

In the sky above Tongtian Peak, Zhou Xiaohuan's shout was heard.

"Grandpa, this is the Wind Escape Technique."

Zhou Zhou Xian replied angrily: "What are you yelling about, I'm not blind, I can see it." ”

Zhou Xiaohuan replied: "Grandpa, when you see Master Zu, you are still pretending to be crazy and stupid, Master Zu is going to throw you into the ditch." ”

Moments later, the tornado cleared.

The figures of the three appeared in front of the Phantom Moon Ancient Cave.

Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaohuan's figures have not yet stabilized.

Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhou Zhou Xian and said, "I plan to open another peak in Qingyun Mountain, and pass on the 'Numerology Nine Calculations' and 'Jade Pillar Physiognomy' as well as these escape techniques, what do you think?" ”
