Chapter 36: Life
"I'm sorry, I don't know... I'm sorry. β
Rearranging their clothes, the three of them went to Xinheng's bedroom and sat down. Xinhengdao sighed and poured a cup of tea for each of the exhausted two, his expression was very helpless and puzzled.
Xia Fanxing held his head with a very painful expression. And the most painful reason was that he couldn't convince himself to tell what happened last in the Xuanneng hut that day.
So far, he hasn't told anyone about that day Shoujun and Xuanneng. He didn't mention that he had almost frozen to death outside, nor did he mention anything about the Moon Demon Pill.
He couldn't say it all. I don't know why, these things are like taboos, so he doesn't want to mention them in front of others. Even if his perception of Xuan Energy is much better than at the beginning. And the peach boy under Shoujun's seat can also be said to have saved his life.
"Why is there such a thing? There has never been any problem with the starry body. I've been taking you since I was a child. Even when you came back from outside two months ago, I checked your body. Except for advanced foundations, there are no other weird places... How could it be!"
The Heart Hengdao man paced anxiously around the room. This question threw heavily on his heart, and it seemed that it was difficult to let go for a while.
Xia Fanxing's expression was very frustrated and puzzled, but the doubts in his heart were different from those of the masterβwhat did Shoujun do to him? How did he do it? Why did he do it!
You know, just a glance at the Moon Demon Pill......
A sense of uneasiness flooded over me. Once again, he felt himself in the midst of traps and mysteries. What the hell is going on!
Xia Fanxing hugged his head and fell on the stone table, sighing endlessly. Xinheng is also surrounded by feelings of frustration and incomprehension, and it is really incomprehensible.
Only Su Qiao, after taking a sip of hot tea, said calmly, "It's okay." Don't do that. There are always things that are difficult for us to understand. But that doesn't mean we have to give up. β
She held Xia Fanxing's hand and watched him slowly raise his confused face. "No matter how much the dantian is blocked, it is also your body. Fanxing, you believe in your sister so much today, which shows that your body does not reject these things. Your body, after all, is your body. We can work harder later, can't we?"
"I will hold on until your dantian can accept my breath and we can accomplish this together. β
Her eyes were filled with hope again. Although she knew that things were not what she said, Xia Fanxing was still moved. At this moment, he wanted to tell Su Qiao why, but he still held back. After all, it won't be of much use to say it. As... Just carry on this blind persistence, maybe, sincerity can be learned, and one day it will be successful.
Xinheng sighed, calmed down, nodded heavily, and comforted himself, "That's fine." No one can hurt my apprentice's dantian. Ha ha. β
There was bitterness in the final laughter. All this means that Xia Fanxing's body is not completely under his control. For the monks, this happened in the dantian, very bad, very bad.
"You're tired, too, so go get some sleep. With a bitter smile, Xin Heng comforted the two. Although he will not give up easily, he also knows that the next process will be very difficult. At this time, Su Qiao suddenly coughed twice, and his face suddenly became extremely pale.
Xinheng was shocked, and hurriedly walked up to her and held her up. Gently hugged Su Qiao's pale face into his arms. At this time, Su Qiao had even begun to have difficulty breathing, and his coughing sound was intermittent.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm here. He comforted softly, and Xia Fanxing immediately stood up and walked to the master's side. He understood that it was very likely that this was Su Qiao's stubborn illness.
Xin Heng touched her forehead, which was already as cold as frost. The weak coughing stopped abruptly, and Su Qiao in his arms had already fallen into a fainting.
Xin Heng hurriedly carried her to the bed and said a few words to Xia Fanxing seriously. He hurriedly walked out of the bedroom, brought a bucket of water from outside, and Xinheng used the power of his palm to instantly heat it up until it smoked. Then Xia Fanxing hurriedly ran outside again, came back with several quilts, and carefully covered Su Qiao, who was pale and had blue lips.
At this moment, he understood that this dual cultivation method was not just for himself.
"Sister Su, you'll get better, you'll get better......"

"What the hell is going on? Senior Brother Ming!"
In the early morning, the soul Taoist is in front of the retreat place at the foot of the mountain. Ming Shen, who had an indifferent face, stood at the mouth of the blocked cave, and He Qiongjiu, who looked anxious, stood next to him, and asked eagerly.
She had long felt that after the battle of annihilation, Ming Shen's whole person had become extremely weird. Three days passed, and she hadn't heard him say more than three words to anyone. Although Mingshen's personality was relatively cold before, he has had a deep relationship with him during this time, and his personality has improved a lot. On Zhixuan Peak that day, the two of them teamed up to kill a monk of the Yudan period. Although she was seriously injured, the indifferent Senior Brother Ming did not leave her and carried her off the mountain to be taken care of by Xiao Shami. I resolutely went back to help.
Obviously, she saw that Mingshen had changed. But after the alliance sect settled in two days ago, he completely became this respectful appearance.
He Qiongjiu, who is lively by nature, can't understand, could it be that the war made him like this?
Although Ming Shen is her junior brother, he is still two places higher than her. She herself couldn't tell why she cared so much about him, she just didn't want to see him like this, even more so than before.
The cool autumn breeze blew across his cheeks, and Ming Shen pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
"Senior sister knows, you should be for the soul master and those dead masters......"
Ming Shen suddenly turned his head, his face full of impatience, and interrupted her, "You don't understand!"
Turning his head again, looking at the vine-strewn entrance to the cave, he only said five words, "Let me be alone!"
"Why do you want to do this?" asked her pretty face, full of puzzlement and reluctance.
"Master He, do you mind if the little monk says a word?"
A slightly immature voice suddenly sounded behind the two of them. Ming Shen sighed heavily, turned his head, his face full of murderous aura and stared at the Jianxing monk who followed them at some point.
Shami's face was also gloomy, but it was much better than Mingshen's. When He Qiongjiu saw someone coming, she said even more anxiously, "And you." You've been so sad these days... You weren't like that when you were on the mountain, so were your brothers and sisters. Why did you both become like this? It's weird, is there something going on on Zhixuan Peak that I don't know about?"
The murderous aura on Ming Shen's face disappeared, and turned into a deep sense of loss and unwillingness. Jianxing smiled bitterly and asked Mingshen, "Master Ming, don't hold it alone... The little monk was also in pain, even though he always liked to knock me on the head... The little monk can tell the Buddha these things, who can you tell them to? So, you might as well tell Sister He. β
"Whatever. Mingshen closed his eyes, spit out two words, walked to the front of the cave, and sat down slowly.
"Why... Why is this happening?" After hearing what happened to Jianyuan, He Qiongjiu was also stunned. I also noticed that there were many suspicions. Why did he insist on going to Guanmei Peak and explain that Master Zhen needed him? Why didn't the news of his death be made public along with the sacrificial monks? What happened on Guanmei Peak?
Jianxing sighed and said, "Donor, the little monk's senior brother is not dead. It's a very difficult concept to understand... When an ordinary person dies, his soul dissipates into the world. And his soul... But it was sealed in the body. No one knows how this is done. So, he looks like he's dead, but his soul is still there, but he can't do anything. In the past few days, Master Ming Zhen has confirmed this judgment. It's just that... No one knows how to break the seal..."
An extremely cold voice came from Mingshen's side, "Is that so?"
Jianxing clasped his hands together, "The little monk will never dare to joke about the life and death of his senior brother." β
"Why didn't you come and tell me earlier!" asked Mingshen as he leaped up from the ground and walked up to the novice with murderous eyes, glaring at him.
Jianxing reluctantly took a step back, "Amitabha, I only heard what the abbot said yesterday. I'm coming to you today. Excited about what. β
A shallow smile seemed to appear on Ming Shen's face, but it was all covered by the next look. He sat back down in front of the cave and said nothing.
It's strange to say that He Qiongjiu, as a girl, actually understood Mingshen's feelings about Jianyuan at once. From the big battle that does not fall down the mountain, neither of them obeys the other. But the feelings of pity for each other gradually brewed. To the help of Jianyuan on Zhixuan Peak, without hesitation, it further promoted the feelings between the two. The time is right, meeting a confidant, it's that simple, maybe as long as you fight and say a few words, you can become a bosom friend between each other.
Real men, big husbands, sometimes it's so simple and pure.
However, what pained Mingshen the most was this. failed to leave Jianyuan at the end, and failed to beg the Xinyang Dao people to bring him with him. He just fell into a distant slumber, and no one knew why. He even had a grudge against Xinyang Dao, but when he thought that Xinyang had completely ended his path, he couldn't bear it and felt sorry for a while.
"When he wakes up, if he fights me again, he won't be able to beat me!"
Mingshen's voice came. Jianxing's heart warmed, he was so convinced that Jianyuan could break the soul seal and recover. It also made him feel moved. This is also what Jianxing is extremely looking forward to.
After He Qiongjiu understood Ming Shen, he was also relieved. Slowly walked to his side, didn't know how to comfort him, and sat beside him. Jianxing also walked slowly and sat down beside her. Mingshen didn't leave, and the three of them just sat quietly.
He didn't know how long this new hope could make him look forward to it again. At this moment, in Mingshen's heart, Jianyuan is already a sincere and dear friend. He didn't want that hope to be dashed.

"Elder Zheng... This morning I want to go to the Plum Peak Retreat. As a result, there was a disgusting man who seemed to have been following the disciple..."
In the evening, on the west side of the Inner Sect, the residence arranged by the Tu Feng Sect for the disciples of the Yin Sha Sect was in the courtyard of Elder Zheng Xin's house.
Several Supreme Elders also have ulterior motives. Knowing that the female disciples of the Yin Sha Sect love a quiet environment, and they are even more fond of flowers and plants, they deliberately gave them a place to live in this relatively quiet and undisturbed inner sect. In front of several houses, fragrant flowers and plants are planted.
After Zheng Xin's arrangement, the living room full of the fragrance of orchids and herbs seemed to have the same atmosphere as in the Yin Sha Sect. At this time, the four sword-taking Daoists sent by the Yin Sha Sect were all in Zheng Xin's hall. One of the petite girls, named Lu Tingyue, was the youngest junior sister in the Daozi this time. Her face flushed, and she stammered to the elders.
"It's a disciple of the East Palace again?" Zheng Xin, who was sitting in the middle, also had a stern expression. Although, as one of the Eight Great Ancient Sects, Donggong tried her best to maintain a tolerant attitude towards them and was unwilling to provoke them. But if the girls who harass her again and again will have to take an inch, she Zheng Xin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she must ask for an explanation to come back.
"It doesn't seem like it... I think those stinky men in the East Glass Palace are disgusting, but they just like to look at it. This person seems to be their own disciple of the Tu Feng Sect, and he looks very obscene... And do the tracking thing!"
Lu Tingyue looked devastated, very desperate. For the young disciples of the Yin Sha Sect, this kind of reaction after being followed was really true.
"The Taoist robe he wears should be Tu Fengzong's own person. β
Zheng Xin frowned, in the past three days, she had a good impression of the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect. The two Supreme Elders in charge, the humble and polite people of Xinheng Dao, and the capable people of Xinyin Dao, all left a good impression on her. The disciples of the Tu Feng Sect are also more disciplined, and they are also polite to their group.
"Do you see what this person looks like?" Zheng Xin asked.
"It's like... It seems to have appeared at last night's meeting. I can't remember what it looked like. Lu Tingyue said nervously.
Liu Se, who was standing beside her, secretly wrote down the words of her junior sister. She has a good impression of Tu Fengzong's sword-taking daozi. Not... Xia Fanxing can be completely ruled out. There is also the disciple of the fourth seat, who looks decent, and should not have such a color. And the guy who has always been indifferent, and he didn't show up two days ago. Looking at the way everyone owes him money, it shouldn't be so obscene and dirty. Then, there were only the two Tu Feng Sect disciples who sat next to Xia Fanxing last night. She didn't have a deep impression of those two.
Liu Se thought about it and told Elder Zheng what he thought. Zheng Xin nodded and said, "Those two should be the sixth and seventh disciples." These two plus Xia Fanxing, and finally one of them must be selected to enter the cave sky. I was not impressed by the two of them, and I went to ask Xinheng Daoyou in the evening. β
"If something like this happens again, Tingyue, feel free to tell me!"
The residence of the twenty-four disciples of the Inner Sect, a mansion in the middle, in the bedroom.
When arranging their residence, I don't know if it was an accident or something. Ouyang Ren of the sixth seat and Lin Jianyang of the twelfth seat, two guys who were notorious for their misconception in the twenty-four disciple center, had the same smell and were arranged to live together. As a result, the smell is getting stronger and stronger, and both of them are very serious. Moreover, when I used to travel outside, I had already tasted meat.
In the evening, Ouyang Ren returned to the bedroom, and Lin Jianyang immediately came over, "How is it?"
Ouyang Ren sat on the bed and laughed, "I saw that girl's face after taking off the black veil." Damn, what kind of heavenly place is this Yin Sha Sect, just pull out a fairy from the sky, you want to have a face, you want to have a body!"
There is no doubt that the person who followed Lu Tingyue near Guanmei Peak this morning was none other than Ouyang Ren, who had an obscene face.
Usually when the two get along, they like to talk about Senior Sister Hou Ying's pretty face and Senior Sister He Qiongjiu's thighs. All topics related to the senior sisters and sisters are the talking points of these two stinky maggots. It's a pity that the heart is more than enough but the strength is insufficient. Except for the Yin-Yang Sect, almost all the Righteous Path Sects absolutely prohibit young disciples from indulging in lust, and it is impossible for them to fantasize about sexual immorality every day.
Lin Jianyang showed a look of envy on his face, "Have you seen other people's thighs or something?"
When Ouyang Ren heard this, he immediately became interested, "Mmmmmmmmmm Fuck, it's so fucking white, and it looks so tender. At that time, I almost couldn't control it and rushed up to touch it. If the angle was better... Oh, it's a shame to say that!"
"Hehe, if only I could touch it, it would be comfortable. It's so comfortable!" Lin Jianyang's face showed an extremely yearning look, trying his best to imagine what Senior Brother had seen in the morning.
"People didn't notice you, did they?" he asked after thinking for a moment, and then asked with some uneasiness.
"No, how can you. Lao Tzu's cultivation is at least a cut higher than her, and it is not so easy to find mine. Ouyang Ren said proudly.
Lin Jianyang jerked up from the bed and salivated, "So... Senior Brother Ouyang will take Senior Brother and I with me next time! You can't watch such a beautiful spring scenery alone. Next time, let's pick a better location, if we can see there. Tut-tut, it's over!"
Ouyang Ren rolled his eyes and pretended to be a lesson, "Go, go." I don't know about the matter of the Ancient Sword Cave Heaven, brother, I have the best chance to enter as the last place. Like the seventh junior brother, the eighth junior brother or something... I'm sorry, but I'm going to settle for a little bit this time. How can I have time to accompany you to see the scenery! β
β... Senior brother, you're not very interesting, aren't you? If I go alone, my cultivation may not be as good as her, and if I am discovered, it will be over!"
Ouyang Ren smiled and said, "It's definitely not going to work in the next few days." You can't go every day, no matter how stupid a girl is, she can find traces. One day, I'm tired of practicing swords, so I'll ask you to go and see the scenery together. β
"I'm going to meditate. Think about it, in the ancient sword cave heaven, which girl from the Yin Sha Sect was bullied, brother, I stepped forward is a sword, a hero saves the beauty... Tut-tut, and then people have to make a promise. It's up to Master to do this. I can't live up to the girl's deep love ......"
"What about me?"
"Don't worry, don't worry. Anyway, you can't go to the Ancient Sword Cave, so go to other people's residences during this time to offer more courtesy. You kid can't cultivate, but he looks pretty good. Maybe a girl can't bear the loneliness in our sect, and she takes a fancy to your face, and being a dew lover for a night is enough for you kid to brag about it for ten years, isn't it......"
