Datang, November.

A week ago, Xia Fanxing left Tu Fenzong, took some coils given by his master, and rushed to Chang'an as quickly as possible.

With his cultivation, he didn't need to take a carriage. Xia Fanxing often copied some remote trails, and used his foot strength in the mountains and wilderness to stride meteors. Although his footwork is not as good as his junior brother Zheng Hong, the monk's most basic primary speed movement technique is also relatively profound. It only took two or three days to pass through the lofty mountains of the Yunnan-Guizhou region. It was only when he reached the north of Jiannan Road, at the junction with Shannan West Road, that he stayed here for four or five days.

In Mianzhou, north of Jiannan Road, there is a relatively large second-rate sect. The Purple Yang Sect is a sub-sect of the Nine Lotus Sect. Among the eight ancient sects, only the Nine Lotus Sect, the Seven Seas Sect, the West Pole Sect, the Soul Suppression Sect, and the Arctic Emperor Palace have their own sects. Moreover, there is more than one branch under the name of these four major sects. However, because it is a very difficult task to support the sects, only one of the four major sects belongs to the ranks of second-rate sects. Among the second-rate sects below, there are also some sects that have sub-sects, but they belong to third-rate sects. The sect obeys the words of the general sect and pays tribute every month.

The Purple Yang Sect, the largest branch of the Nine Lotus Sect, was established in Mianzhou five hundred years ago and is in charge of the ten major local Dao Gang forces. After arriving in Mianzhou, Xia Fanxing immediately had a feeling of returning to Liyang, there were many disputes among the Dao Gang, but because of the Ziyang Sect guarding it, the order was still better than that of Liyang. Before he came here five days ago, he knew that this was the realm of the Nine Lotus Sect, so he tried to keep a low profile and gather his concentration so that no one could see his cultivation. But when he arrived at the realm of the Ziyang Sect, there was still a little trouble.

Mountains all over Mianzhou have been mined, and all of them have been transformed into spiritual veins. So there were patrols of Dao Gang disciples everywhere. Xia Fanxing originally planned to use up what he had learned all his life, and after the blessing of more than 30 water holes in his right rib, he would reduce the intensity of his breath to the lowest level to achieve the effect of breathing. Then hide the belongings of the body in the hole storage bag. He bought a coarse cloth short coat with a plate, hid the robe in a storage bag, and wanted to pretend to be a mortal, and walked over from outside the Ziyang Sect.

However, in the end, it was still the water bone cultivation that was not refined, and in addition, his own foundation building spirit tripod grade could only be regarded as decent, and his control over Tu Na was not so high. When he mixed with a group of merchants and tried to walk from the post road outside the Ziyang Sect to the Shannan West Road, he was still noticed by the disciples of the Ziyang Sect patrolling here, and when he asked Xia Fanxing where he came from, he kept silent. So he was detained on the spot.

They first imprisoned Xia Fanxing in prison for a whole day, waiting for the sect elder to come and interrogate. Xia Fanxing knew that if he fell into the hands of the Nine Lotus Sect, he was afraid that he would be more than lucky. There was only one way for him to get out now, and that was to cover up all the aura on his body and transform into a mortal before the other elder's arrival.

In a hurry, he took out the Yuqing Stone Spirit Sword from the acupoint and poured the breath of his whole body into the Spirit Sword. Although he has not yet generated a sword vein with his current kendo attainment, he is still able to manipulate a certain degree of sword qi. He flicked the Yuqing Stone Spirit Sword, and one after another spiritual waves with strong coercion approached his dantian. Xia Fanxing endured the discomfort and continued to urge Yuqingshi's unique spiritual wave, forcing the spirit sword close to his dantian. Soon, that white aura appeared in large numbers in the dantian, and the feeling of blockade soon came again. He took the Yuqing Stone Spirit Sword and slowly stabbed it into his skin, a sharp pain came, and he didn't take out the Spirit Sword. Instead, he waited for the feeling of complete numbness in the dantian, and after the seven spirit tripods completely stopped functioning, he threw the spirit sword on the ground, covered the blood mark on his abdomen with his clothes, gasped for breath in pain, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, the Purple Yang Sect really came to a Supreme Elder to interrogate him. The Nine Lotus Sect had already come to order that if they encountered the people of the enemy's Seven Great Alliance Sects, regardless of their cultivation age, they would all be detained and sent to the Nine Lotus Sect. However, when he saw Xia Fanxing, whose face was weak and had no spiritual power to speak of, he couldn't help frowning.

Xia Fanxing began to cry out for injustice. That elder also thought that with his cultivation in the middle stage of the knot, it was impossible not to see through this guy's cultivation. Unless, he really didn't cultivate. Xia Fanxing didn't need to pretend, and the constant use of aura to coerce the dantian brought him great exhaustion. Therefore, he naturally appeared as a mortal. He also shouted at the elder - he was just a businessman who went to the capital, and it was the disciple next to the elder who took a fancy to his sword, so he deliberately said that he was a monk of the sect and escorted him over.

The elder looked at the sword that had been thrown to the ground by Xia Fanxing, and with his knowledge, he didn't even know that this was the rare spirit ore jade clear stone of the Tu Feng Sect. But the material of the spirit sword is extraordinary at a glance. He glanced at the stunned disciple and frowned. Wouldn't it be a waste of his time to arrest a monk who was a mortal as a hostile force? Moreover, their Ziyang Sect was based in Mianzhou, and its reputation was very good, and it won the hearts of the people of Mianzhou. The elder scolded the disciple in front of Xia Fanxing, but the guy couldn't argue and couldn't refute anything. He couldn't understand why a monk yesterday had become a frail mortal today.

Xia Fanxing took the opportunity to say a few more words, and the elder personally sent him out of the sect. and warned him that this was just a misunderstanding, and that he should not talk about it to outsiders, so as not to ruin the reputation of the Ziyang Sect.

After turning the danger into a disaster, Xia Fanxing's speed was also reduced a lot due to the fact that the dantian was blocked again. He had to spend money to hire a carriage and send him around Chang'an City. When he arrived at his destination, it was already night, and it had been a week since he left the sect.

I don't know how long Yanliu waited for him... Fortunately, there are still five days left before the martial arts meeting starts.

The location of the Datang Ming Building is more than 100 meters south of Dongshi. As soon as Xia Fanxing got out of the carriage, he saw this Qinlou Chu Lane, which looked breathtaking at night.

Standing out from the crowd in a residential building outside the East Market. The evening market has ended, and the silence of the East Market has resumed every night. And inside this green building, the lights are bright, and there are seven floors high. The plaque above the gate reads the word "Ming Building". There are only two spacious rooms on the first floor, and I don't know what they are used for, or where the kataka live in this famous building. On the first floor, there is an old mother who still has charm standing on the side of the front desk, and she is introducing her girl to two brightly dressed sons. Behind the two bedrooms is an unlit area, and around the corner is the staircase leading upstairs. There was a faint sound of someone rummaging through the darkness. Xia Fanxing got out of the carriage, shook the spirit sword at his waist, and walked towards the Tang Ming Tower.

It was in this place that his biological parents got married. Xiao Song, who is the crown prince and teacher, is also quite old, and a girl living in Qinlou Chu Lane actually loves each other so passionately, and gives him Xia Fanxing's life.

Xia Fanxing slowly walked towards the door. He was born with a strong curiosity about his birth mother. My biological father passed away a few years ago, and my mother didn't even know where the master was. Perhaps, this Tang Ming Tower is the closest place where he is most likely to come into contact with his mother.

"Dan'er, Chun'er, haven't you found that girl's things yet?"

As soon as Xia Fanxing walked in, the two men who were talking with the old bustard's mother were temporarily left aside. The two of them had obscene smiles on their faces, and when they saw Xia Fanxing in coarse cloth short clothes, their faces were stunned at the same time.

Before the bustard mother walked to the unlit area at the back, she shouted at the girls who seemed to be rummaging through the objects inside. After a while, the shy and scared voices of two young women came, "No... I really didn't see it. ”

The old bustard sighed, and seemed to have a layer of frost on his face. Pointing to the person in the darkness, he scolded and said, "The girl is from the Yin Demon Sect, you can find it for me!"

She turned her head and shouted to the stairs on one side, "Xijun, don't be idle, go upstairs and find her everywhere!"

Xia Fanxing ignored the two men who looked like the children of the eunuchs on the side, and slowly paced to the stairs around the corner. As soon as he turned his head, he saw his willow standing on the half floor. She stood in the hallway and held the handrail, not holding her hair together. A rare white jade thread hung down behind her tight jade shoulders, Ji Yanliu was wearing a pure white nightgown, a pair of slender hands with a crimson sheen, and the bracelet he gave her on the jade wrist of her right hand. Her beautiful face glowed red, as if she had just undergone a double cultivation. But a pair of affectionate eyes revealed worry.

There was a woman in plain clothes, and after the bustard finished speaking, she touched Ji Yanliu's head and went upstairs. He didn't see the woman's face clearly. After seeing Ji Yanliu, Xia Fanxing hurriedly walked up briskly and waved his hand excitedly at her in the corridor.

Ji Yanliu, who hadn't seen him for a long time, reacted more enthusiastically and fiercely than he imagined. She was originally in a heavy mood, and after catching a glimpse of Xia Fanxing in a coarse cloth short coat, the expression on her face became excited. She quickly ran down the stairs and hugged the embarrassed Xia Fanxing tightly. When the bustard on the side saw her coming down, he immediately had a smile on his face. But after seeing Ji Yanliu and this disheveled man embracing each other enthusiastically, she was stunned for a moment.

Xia Fanxing finally smiled relaxedly. He hugged the girl in front of him into his arms, didn't say anything, and kissed Ji Yanliu's jade neck. I only heard the beautiful woman in my arms say in a worried voice, "Xia Lang, I was so worried about you after Elder Li came back that day... Good thing you're okay..."

He understood that Ji Yanliu was referring to the battle of the Tu Feng Sect to destroy the formation a month ago. He hugged her tightly and said in a trembling voice, "I'm fine, of course I'm fine, how can I be fine......"

"Girl, girl, you wait. You must find your things......" The voice of the old bustard on the side squeezed down the thousand words that poured into the mouths of the two of them. Xia Fanxing reluctantly let go of his hand and asked softly, "Liu'er, what did you lose?"

Ji Yanliu's face showed a worried look, and she quickly covered it up. She smiled and said, "Auntie, it's okay, let's look for it later." Maybe I'll sense it myself later. Xia Lang, let's go upstairs first. ”

"No, no. Tell me what I've lost. He turned his head to look at the old bustard, whose face was full of embarrassment, and the two women in the darkness were still rummaging around.

The old bustard seems to have reacted now, and the disheveled man in front of him is probably the partner who lives in the Tang Ming Building with this girl. She cleared her throat and said respectfully, "Childe, it's the soul jade of the Smoke Willow Girl......"

Ji Yanliu had come to the Tang Ming Tower under the escort of Elder Li five days ago. The woman who was called Xijun by the old bustard, surnamed Li, often went in and out of Ji Yanliu's door in the past five days. It's too late to tell him what exactly this Li Xijun is, but I only know that she is also a singer here, but she rarely picks up customers and her reputation is not big. What do you do when you often go to Ji Yanliu's door, Xia Fanxing can barely guess.

Ji Yanliu blushed and told him that she was taken out by Li Xijun not long ago and had a famous snack in Chang'an before the East Market closed. After they returned, they returned to the door and conducted a cultivation practice. After it was over, Ji Yanliu, who was refreshed, suddenly found that the soul jade that he had been wearing around his neck since he went out was gone.

Xia Fanxing was anxious all of a sudden, "Soul jade is such an important thing, you have to find it quickly!"

He turned his head to look at the two eunuchs standing by the door, looking shocked. Then he glanced at the old bustard. She immediately understood what Xia Fanxing meant, was embarrassed for a moment, and walked towards the two of them. After repeated reparations, the robes of the two were searched, but nothing was found.

Out of the darkness came two young dusty women with fancy, with a look of panic on their faces. They bowed to Ji Yanliu and whispered, "Little sister... Did you really lose it in our building......"

Ji Yanliu showed a gentle smile, "It's okay, I'll look for it myself." ”

The old bustard scolded the two girls. With a smile, he walked over to the two men who were already a little displeased by the door, and let the two of them go upstairs with the girls. "Don't worry, girl. I'm going to go to the boss right now and ask her to use some connections and get help from the patrol in the city. Who dares to steal ...... in our Tang Ming Building"

Xia Fanxing waved his hand and said in an unquestionable tone, "I'll help her find it." Hold your horses. ”

After that, he touched Ji Yanliu's head comfortingly and stepped into the darkness.

The old bustard kept smiling at Ji Yanliu, but her mood after seeing Xia Fanxing at this time was not as flustered as just now.

At this moment, Xia Fanxing, whose dantian was blocked, did not have any spiritual power or induction at all. I don't know how to find it. In the dark, I rummaged through the empty clearing, and it seemed that this should be used as a warehouse or something. He didn't see anything with spiritual power, so he could only walk out of it helplessly.

At this moment, the woman named Li Xijun heard her footsteps coming down from upstairs. Xia Fanxing walked to Ji Yanliu's side, and Li Xijun also walked to the corridor. This time, Xia Fanxing saw her face very clearly-she was about thirty or forty years old, slightly old. But the appearance is still relatively exquisite, especially a pair of peach blossom eyes. If you look at it a few more times, you will find that this woman is very attractive. Tall and slender, wrapped in a bright red cheongsam.

Li Xijun held a piece of jade with a green luster in his hand. After Ji Yanliu's gaze was fixed on it, the luster on the beautiful jade became even more dazzling. Li Xijun slowly approached and put on the soul jade to help Ji Yanliu. With a gentle smile, he said, "Found it in the corridor on the fifth floor." ”

Xia Fanxing glanced at her suspiciously, but unexpectedly met Li Xijun's gaze. He hurriedly turned his head, Ji Yanliu in front of him saluted and thanked him, and the old bustard finally breathed a sigh of relief, and introduced to Li Xijun, "Xijun, this son must be the child that Li Xianshi said." Then he turned his head and said respectfully to Xia Fanxing, "Dare to ask what the name of the little boy is?"

Xia Fanxing calmly took Ji Yanliu's hand and said, "My name is Xia Fanxing." Fortunately. ”

Li Xijun glanced at them and said with a smile, "I'm glad I will." Zheng's mother, then I'll take them to the room. ”
