Chapter XI
Xie Qingming is a very beautiful woman, and the three thousand white hairs not only make her look old, but add a bit of charm. Even Duan Feiqiu, who had seen all the beauties in the world, had to admit that Xie Qingming was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
However, the more beautiful something is, the more toxic it is - and it is equally suitable for beauty. Xie Qing is beautiful, but it can't make Gu Xiangcheng relax his vigilance.
He knew how Xie Qingming relied on his own strength to defend this huge Qingming Mountain, not to mention that in his eyes, Xie Qingming was just a pink skeleton, since it was a skeleton, no matter how beautiful she was, it was all for nothing.
Therefore, when Xie Qingming invited them into the hall with a smile on his face, Gu Xiangcheng stood in front of Duan Feiqiu and refused very neatly: "I don't dare to disturb the seniors, but the two of us are here, and there are indeed some small things that need the help of the seniors." β
Xie Qingming smiled, and the expression on his face was a little puzzled. She hesitated, "This ...... You also know that the concubine has been in seclusion here for decades, and I am afraid that she will be powerless. Why don't I write a letter to other old friends, maybe they have a way to ......"
"Nope." Gu Xiangcheng interrupted her words and stared at her intently, his attitude was a little aggressive, "In this matter, except for Senior Xie, no one else can help us." β
Xie Qingming put down his face, his willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and his face was pale: "This son is so rude!" The concubine is really powerless, you two better leave quickly! "With that, you have to throw your sleeves and leave.
Gu Xiangcheng took a step forward, grabbed the big red cloud sleeve, and with a little force, he pulled the person into a stagger: "Xie senior, the junior hasn't said anything, how do you know that you can't help?" Or do you already know what the juniors want to say, and you don't dare to continue listening to it? β
"Don't deceive people too much!" Xie Qingming furrowed his brows, his eyes were full of tears, and his appearance was a little pitiful.
Duan Feiqiu originally only planned to watch from the wall, but at this time he had to make a move. He walked out from behind Gu Xiangcheng and said with a smile: "What are you doing so nervous?" We haven't said anything yet! Miss Xie, the two of us think that you are a woman, and we don't care about you in general, as long as you promise to help us with this, we will definitely not embarrass you! β
Xie Qing bit his lower lip lightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally eased his attitude: "Okay...... What do you want me to do? β
Gu Xiangcheng said: "It's not difficult, you only need to confess your sins in front of the world, and then kill yourself." β
Duan Feiqiu: "......" Are you fucking sick in the brain!
Xie Qingming also had a foolish expression. It may be that what Gu Xiangcheng said was too shameless, she paused for a long time before she eased up, and before she could put away her shocked expression, her anger had already surfaced, making her face look a little distorted: "If you are sick, go see it as soon as possible, and if you talk nonsense here in the concubine, you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue?" β
"This doesn't bother the seniors to worry." Gu Xiangcheng's face did not change and waved away Duan Feiqiu's hand, he was so annoyed that he felt that Duan Feiqiu was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and the good atmosphere was ruined, "I don't know how the seniors thought about it?" β
"The concubine doesn't understand what you're saying. It's getting late, and the concubine won't leave the two to rest, so please go back early. Xie Qingming slowly calmed down, and didn't plan to entangle with them anymore, so he directly ordered the eviction.
Gu Xiangcheng didn't plan to leave, nor did he plan to let Duan Feiqiu go. He no longer tried to stop the woman who was trying to leave, but the moment she turned around, he whispered a wordβ
"Are you so deliberately trying to turn Yan'er into a living puppet because he is the orphan of another Xie family besides you?"
Shen Yan opened his eyes in a daze, and then suddenly he fell asleep leaning against the window.
Outside the window, the sky was a little overcast, the sun was shrouded in dark clouds, and the air was damp, and it would rain in a few moments. Shen Yan had just woken up from his dream, and his mind was not very clear for a while. He propped his head and stared blankly at the outside for a long time before he could drag back his thoughts that were almost soaring.
"Awake?" A cup of hot tea is pushed to hand. When he looked up, the god of Yangui Town was looking at him with a smile, and a warm smile flashed in his amber eyes.
Shen Yan was stunned for a while, and slowly nodded: "Hmm." β
As soon as he moved, something fell off his body. The eye quickly picked it up, it was a cloak, the fabric was very soft and comfortable to the touch, and there was a faint smell of grass.
"I saw that you were asleep, and I didn't wake you up." Duan Feiqiu explained lightly, and looked at the other party's face as he spoke, "Did you sleep well this night?" β
"Hmm." Shen Yan responded. He was haunted by dreams for many years, and every time he woke up from his dreams, he would feel uncomfortable for days. But this time it was different, and although I also dreamed, there was no suffocating feeling.
He thought about it and felt that it might be related to his dream - he had dreamed before, and in any case, the final outcome was Xie Qing's smiling face, but this time he only dreamed of a large sea of flowers. Without the disturbance of "Xie Qingming", he naturally slept well.
Thinking so, Shen Yan picked up the tea handed over by Duan Feiqiu and took a sip gently. The light sweetness melted into his blood with the hot tea, making him squint in comfort.
Duan Feiqiu had been observing him quietly, and when he saw him showing a happy expression, he put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Gu Gongzi specially asked me to take care of you before leaving, and now I am relieved to see that you look good." β
Shen Yan was stunned, not knowing what he meant by saying this, so he had to hold the teacup and be silent, waiting for the other party's next words.
Fortunately, Duan Feiqiu only mentioned it on a whim, so he refused to say more. He turned his head and looked out the window. The sky was overcast, but it didn't look depressing. Duan Feiqiu smiled and said, "The sun is coming out soon." β
Xie Qingming's face was very ugly, and whoever exposed his dirty thoughts would look bad. Xie Qing has always been conceited, she thought that everything was unaware, and everyone in this world who knew Shen Yan's life experience had been made into a puppet by her, and even Shen Yan himself was confused and didn't know much. As long as Shen Yan also disappears, then no one will know what she has done again.
However, she never expected that the young man in front of her, who had not yet been crowned, would actually break her gloomy mind for so many years! This made her heart alarmed, but there was still an ignorant and angry look on her face: "What is this son talking about?" The concubine body didn't understand. However, the son ruined people's reputation for no reason, and the concubine would not bear this breath. β
Gu Xiangcheng smiled slightly, as if he didn't hear the threat revealed in the words, but instead stretched out his hand nonchalantly and made a gesture of "please": "Then come on." β
Xie Qingming smiled coldly, and decided to fight quickly and leave no one alive. With a twist of Hao's wrist, dozens of puppets fell from the sky and surrounded Gu Cheng and the two!
Duan Feiqiu's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Gu Jiaocheng!" β
"Sorry, miscalculated. I thought she was going to be scared. Gu Xiangcheng scratched his face and smiled innocently.
Duan Feiqiu slammed a puppet away with one palm, his heart was on fire, and he almost scolded in spite of his face-you are so aggressive, only fools will have any scruples about showing mercy to their subordinates, right? Didn't you die to provoke her to anger?
But now is obviously not the time for infighting, Xie Qingming's puppet is a living dead, not afraid of pain or injury, as long as the spirit core is not destroyed, it will not die or be destroyed. If you want to destroy the spirit core, you can only use spiritual power.
However, Gu Xiangcheng's spiritual power was insufficient, and Duan Feiqiu didn't know the trick, so the two of them fought indiscriminately, and there was no one less puppet, and he was so tired that he was out of breath.
Xie Qingming leaned against the pavilion with a pleasant expression, looking at the embarrassed figures of the two with a smile on the corner of his lips, his eyes were full of happiness. It's true that there is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no way to break into hell. Originally, she only planned to kill Shen Yan alone, but now a "god" sent to the door, if she doesn't make good use of it, I'm afraid I'm sorry for their hard work.
Thinking about it, she almost burst out laughing. Xie Qingming could foresee how happy and chic he would be in the future.
After watching it for a while, Xie Qingming became a little bored. In her puppet trap, it's useless to just defeat these puppets if she wants to escape. It's already a predetermined ending, at most it's just a slight deviation in the process. But these deviations are really not worth mentioning.
Xie Qingming's red lips pursed lightly, and he began to think about whether he should simply go back and take a nap for a while, and then come to collect the bodies of these two people.
At this moment, only to hear a loud noise, the group of puppets actually blew themselves up collectively, and in an instant, the dust was flying, and Xie Qingming had to raise his sleeves to cover the dust and sand that was blowing in his face.
Then, she felt a chill in her arm, and her vision suddenly opened up - Gu Xiangcheng stood in front of her in embarrassment, holding a small silver sword in his hand, and blood was dripping from the sword. At his feet, an arm was severed at the root, and his fingers were still trembling slightly.
Xie Qing felt the pain in hindsight, and opened his mouth wide to let out a howl. But the voice was only half shouted, and the rest was stuffed back with a mass of rags.
Duan Feiqiu was no better than Gu Zhengcheng, his hair was messy, his clothes were black and white, and there were a few big holes - if the two of them went to beg for food on the street with such an image, maybe a kind girl would throw a few copper plates at them.
For the first time, the god who had been so ruined snorted shook his sleeves torn into rags, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "If you know the method of breaking the formation, you should say it quickly, why do you have to wait until the end...... This is my brother's own handmade clothes! β
Gu Xiangcheng smiled embarrassedly: "I just thought about it, I'm really sorry." β
Xie Qingming's face was full of sluggishness, and he pounced in disbelief, and asked frantically, "Will you ...... Will you break my formation? Why? Who told you that! β
"Do you think this formation is difficult?" Gu Xiangcheng glanced at her puzzled, and said suspiciously, "Senior, it's not good to sit in the well and watch the sky." You've been in the mountains for so long that you've forgotten what the outside world is like, and how many monks are studying formations outside. As long as you ask them, it is not difficult to know how to crack it. β
