Chapter 355, the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings

The mana of the whole body was poured into the soul devouring rod, and after learning that Qingyunmen had changed, Zhang Xiaofan ignored the urging of his magic weapon, day and night, and rushed frantically in the direction of Qingyun Mountain!

At this moment, he has no time to care about the difference between good and evil, and the difference between good and evil. Even if there was more hesitation and doubt in the past, for Zhang Xiaofan, Qingyun Mountain and Qingyunmen will always be an inviolable holy place in his heart. Although it has only been a few years, for an orphan who has lost his home and all his relatives, it is his master and wife who have given him warmth, and it is his brothers and sisters who have given him care... Even the fox demon wanted to give him the greatest comfort. No matter what, Zhang Xiaofan can't tolerate others burning Qingyunmen!

Hurry up! Hurry up!!

The Soul Eater Rod was constantly urged by its master, and it suddenly bloomed with dazzling light. The rich and clear air came out because of Zhang Xiaofan's strong skills, and a large dazzling clear light was raised in the dark night. Zhang Xiaofan, who was not good at flying with the sword, seemed to be a different person at this moment, and the rapid escape was like a meteor, fleeting in the blink of an eye, as fast as lightning.

But even so, he still couldn't catch up with the anxiety in his heart at the moment, he prayed to be able to move faster, faster, and didn't even notice that even the clear cyan retreat that had been surrounding him seemed to be stained with a little dust at some point, and with the accumulation of this dust, the originally peaceful retreat finally began to undergo some unpredictable changes, because of the master's urgent desire, or because of some fateful arrangement, that terrible power finally began to emerge, The power that was taboo on a large part of the world reappeared in this heaven and earth.

From the first black smoke mixed in that clear light, Zhang Xiaofan finally began some kind of irreversible change, but now he doesn't know that it belongs to the second disaster in his life. And that's just the beginning.

…

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Heyang, Zangfengzhai.

It's been a few days since the events in the Valley of Incense.

But for Liuying, who finally returned here with great effort, this period of time seems to be only in the blink of an eye. It happened so suddenly that even Liuying, who knew the cause and effect of the millennium, could not digest the news that suddenly appeared in his own world. Dire resurrection. The catastrophe reappeared, and the qiē was like a copy of the story thousands of years ago, the only difference was that although he was no longer confused by the ability to incarnate tens of millions, only this time he didn't have the Zhuxian Sword in his hand to open the way for him.

The fierce battle in the Incense Valley lasted for nearly half a day.

During this time, not only the Shadow and Dire, but also the Valley of Incense itself joined the warband after suffering great losses. Whether it's self-defeating or maintaining the dignity of the sect, the battle between Shadow and Dire has involved more people. And for the risks that must be taken by those who are close to these powerful people, Incense Valley also pays expensive enough tuition. In the battle that day, the Incense Valley suffered heavy losses, and the casualties of the elite disciples were even nearly one-third.

Of course, the Shadow was also injured, though not very severely... After all, although he has an advantage in strength, he is not a monster like Dire that tends to be between the tangible and the invisible, even if it is the Taixuan Sword Sutra. The results he can achieve are also quite limited, although he doesn't want to admit it. But in fact, as Dire said, the current Shadow can't kill him, because he hasn't really been resurrected, and his current state is not even "alive".

That's right... I want to be resurrected. He was also missing one of the most important keys.

"Drink this medicine."

On the side of the bed, although the usual face is still lying on the bed, it is just the result of Xiaobai's request... In fact, although he is not completely healed now, he has not reached this point. It's just that just look at Xiaobai's resentful eyes. Liuying is also reluctant to refute something.

"Hmm."

He stretched out his hand and wanted to take the medicine bowl, but was rejected by the beauty who captivated the country and the city - Xiao Bai sat on the edge of the bed with a tense face, and then carefully scooped out a spoonful of dark brown medicinal soup himself, put it to his lips and slowly cooled it, and finally handed it to Liuying's mouth. However, during the whole process, Xiaobai didn't say a word, and it was frighteningly cold.

This...

"Well, I think I could..."

Liuying only said half of it, but as soon as he touched the other party's stern gaze, he decisively relented, just opened his mouth with a wry smile and obediently took a sip.

-- Medicine, bitter medicine... But it's just too bitter. Therefore, Liuying can only make up her mind to talk to Xiaobai.

"Ahem, I know it's me wrong this time, it's a little too impulsive to act alone."

Liuying drank most of the bowl of soup medicine in one go, one spoonful after another, and then spoke with a wry smile. In fact, the tone of the words is not so much a conversation as a plea for mercy... Since a long time ago, there has been no very good way for women, especially for this kind of woman who cares about herself, loves herself, and even spends a thousand years together... At this moment, he has no other excuse than to take the initiative to admit his mistake.

However, these words still don't seem to have any effect. Xiao Bai, who was sitting next to him, was still numb, and stuffed the deadly decoction into his mouth one after another, as if there was no room for negotiation at all... This time, she was probably really angry. Even if it was not the first time that Liuying acted alone, such a result still made the fox fairy furious.

In fact, Liuying doesn't understand... A thousand years ago, he didn't tell her any news, so he chose to sacrifice the sword with his body, and finally used the power of Aoba and the Zhuxian Sword Array to finally quell the turmoil of Dire. Although he had already arranged Xiaobai's next life, no matter what, judging from the results, he still left Xiaobai alone... Just like this operation.

In fact, if you choose again, Flowing Shadow will probably still do this. After all, only he knows his own affairs ... Even death, for him, is only a failed experience, or a worthy sacrifice - the meaning and value of life are far clearer than ordinary people. But it is also far more willing than the average person. If he really had to fight against a dangerous enemy like Dire, he would definitely not let Xiaobai go to danger with him.

So, this is also the reason why he has been so indulgent now... For his own serious acceptance of criticism, but never consider repentance in his heart, Lord Fox Fairy is still quite embarrassed.

"Don't worry, I'm not seriously injured this time. It's almost restored..."

But even if he feels guilty, Liuying really can't stand this meat? was physically and mentally tortured, so he could only drink medicine while trying to divert the topic, hoping that Xiaobai would be able to dissipate his anger as soon as possible, and he would no longer have to drink medicinal soup with this quality. But who knows, this time he didn't open which pot to mention, and poked the basket again.

"Isn't it serious?"

Xiao Bai first raised his voice sharply, and then sneered twice.

"yes. It's not badly injured, what's the matter, do you still plan to be injured every time for a thousand years before you are willing to come back? ”

A "cold light" flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes, and the medicine spoon stabbed into Liuying's mouth at once - although the fox immortal's cultivation is extraordinary, the feeling of this hot medicine being stuffed into his mouth is really uncomfortable, but after all, he lost his words first, and at this moment, he can only pinch his nose and continue to coax people.

"Of course I didn't mean that... Well, Xiaobai. Listen to me, I have gained something from this trip to Incense Valley. At least, I already have a clue about the Heavenly Sealing Stone Carving. ”

When it didn't work, Liuying had to change the topic again... And during the period of working with the Dire, he did discover the secret of the Heavenly Sealing Stone Carving - the Dire is still just a spirit, the so-called method of physical recreation. For a special case like him, it doesn't seem to work, and Cheng Dù, who can do it, is just barely helping him create a skin that can change at will, and now he has strength in addition to the characteristics of being difficult to be killed. But it's far worse than the nightmare that shocked the world back then. And the key to his strength recovery is the "Heavenly Stone Carving" hidden somewhere in this world!

Yes, this mysterious object that was once worshiped by the demon clan from generation to generation in the midst of all the wonderful heavens is sealed with the body of the Dire. If once the Dire repairs this thing, re-unlocks the seal, and is completely resurrected at that time, it may be really difficult to deal with him again - after all, even the Qingye Patriarch back then, he has to use the geographical advantage to attack his unpreparedness with the power of the Zhuxian Sword Formation before finally narrowly winning a move, and now the Dire must have been on guard against the Zhuxian Sword Array, even if the Flowing Shadow can imitate the methods of its predecessors, I am afraid it will be difficult to reap the same effect.

Such a crucial thing had been destroyed by Aoba himself after the great war a thousand years ago, and it was also guaranteed that Dire's body would never be combined with the soul again. It's just that no one expected that such a terrible treasure could be repaired in another way. And this method also involves another monster in the world that can be called unkillable.

"Is it a beast god?"

Xiaobai frowned, obviously he didn't expect things to develop so strangely. It's just that looking back, if the God of the year really wanted to unseal the Heavenly Stone Carving before sending Liuying to the southern frontier to meet the Holy Maiden, the most likely object to be used by him was Fulongding in Liuying's hand and Xuanhuo Jian in Linglong's hand, it seems that there is only one beast god. Does this mean that the resurrection of Dire is also extremely closely related to the beast god?

This is definitely not a good thing... If you're not careful, you'll be involved in the entanglement of these two monsters, and no matter who you are, there's no way to get out of it lightly. Streaming Shadow is no exception.

"That's right, it's him, but this time I have to plan and then act, don't rush to find the beast god immediately, first collect clues and intelligence, and I must not be led by the nose like this time."

"Well..."

Xiao Bai nodded approvingly, and then... Then he picked up the medicine bowl in his hand again.

"That's it, now, let's drink the medicine first."

“…”

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

On the side of the Qingyunmen pioneer, Xiao Yicai's sudden appearance really caused a commotion in the Qingyunmen, and the people of Cangsong Dao and Tian Buyi were both surprised and happy. And from Xiao Yicai's mouth, they also learned that the Demon Sect seemed to have received some rumors, as if they were looking for some opportunity to hit Qingyunmen hard, and unexpectedly knew that even the Ghost King, one of the four major sect masters of the Demon Sect, had come here this time.

At this moment, Xiao Yicai was injured because of his body. Lying on a makeshift stone bed, with his back against the stone wall, there were only Cangsong Dao and Tian Buyi around, and the other disciples were temporarily dismissed.

Cangsong Daoren nodded slowly, his face was solemn, and said, "It turns out that person is the ghost king of the new generation of the Demon Sect Ghost King Sect. Sure enough, the way is profound. ”

Tian Buyi frowned and said, "Yicai, how did you get into the Demon Sect?" ”

Xiao Yicai smiled and said, "On the order of my mentor, I sneaked into Kongsang Mountain to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Sect, and sure enough, I found that there were remnants of the Demon Sect's Blood Refining Hall active there. However, after my many secret observations, these remnants of the Blood Refining Hall are not great enemies, so there is nothing to worry about, but I have heard them talk about how the Holy Sect is going many times. It seems that there is some secret big move in the Demon Sect. In order to find out, I assumed the name Xiao Zhou, and it happened that when they were employing people, I saw that I still had some skills, and I actually entered the Demon Sect very smoothly. ”

Speaking of this, he apologized slightly, and said to Tian Buyi: "But Uncle Tian." When Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Sister Lu Xueqi of Xiaozhu Peak fell into the Necromantic Abyss that day, I happened to be assigned to deal with Senior Brother Faxiang and the others in Tianyin Temple on another road. I can't help it, and I'm really sorry. But... But fortunately, Senior Brother Zhang is blessed with a great life and is safe and sound, so I can rest assured. ”

Xiao Yi only spoke, but when it came to the news about Zhang Xiaofan at the end, he seemed to be a little slurred.

Tian Buyi smiled and said, "It's okay." You can't be blamed for that, you don't have to take it personally. ”

Cangsong Daoren listened to it next to him, and suddenly snorted.

Tian Buyi listened to it in his ears and didn't pay attention to him.

Cangsong Daoren turned his head to Xiao Yicai and said, "But then again, Yicai's nephew." You're taking too much risk. You must know that the thieves of the Demon Sect are all insidious and cunning, if you don't get it right, what harm you have suffered, I can't explain it to the senior brother in charge. ”

Tian Buyi also nodded, and said, "Yes, before going down the mountain this time, the senior brother in charge had no news about you for several months, and he was also quite worried in his heart, so he specially asked us to pay attention to your whereabouts in private!" ”

Xiao Yicai's face darkened, and he shook his head and said, "Alas! It's all my fault, which makes my teacher worried. ”

Cangsong Daoren smiled slightly, and said: "You don't have to think too much, you have made a great contribution this time, and when we clean up the remnants of the Demon Sect here, after returning to the mountain, the senior brother in charge will definitely not blame you, but I am afraid that I will reward you heavily." ”

Xiao Yicai's face turned red and said, "Uncle Cangsong, it's funny." ”

Tian Buyi said lightly: "This is not a joke, you have indeed contributed a lot this time." But Yicai, you don't want to do such dangerous things in the future. The senior brother in charge of the family attaches great importance to you, and after his old man becomes an immortal in the future, most of the position of the head of the family will be passed on to you, and then you will be burdened with heavy responsibilities, so don't be willful. ”

Xiao Yicai said solemnly: "Yes." Thank you Uncle Cangsong and Uncle Tian for your teachings. ”

Cangsong Daoren nodded and said, "Okay then!" I see you're tired too, so rest early! Fortunately, your injury today did not hurt the root of the meridians, otherwise it would have been troublesome. ”

Xiao Yicai watched Cangsong Dao and Tian Buyi both stand up, and wanted to get up to send them off. Tian Buyi held him down, shook his head and said, "You have an injury on your body, just rest well." These customs rites, we are not in Qingyun Mountain, we can be exempted! ”

Xiao Yicai was not good at disobeying him, and his body was really tired, so he leaned back against the stone wall and said, "Thank you two uncles, then I will not send it." ”

Cangsong Daoren waved his hand, and Tian Buyi walked outside, seeing that he was about to walk to the entrance of the cave, he suddenly heard Xiao Yicai shouting behind him: "Uncle Tian." ”

Tian Buyi was stunned for a moment, turned around, and said, "What? ”

Xiao Yicai leaned against the stone wall and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot it." When I visited Uncle Su in Dazhufeng last year, Uncle Su Ru once mentioned that I wanted a 'big shell pearl' that was a specialty of the southeast coast, and it happened that I came to the East China Sea this time and found one. Does Uncle Shi want to watch it now? ”

Tian Buyi pondered for a moment, looked at Xiao Yicai again, laughed, and said: "Hey, if you don't say it, I actually forgot about it, fortunately you have a heart, otherwise after I return to Dazhufeng, I am afraid that I will be annoyed to death by your Uncle Su." ”

With that, he walked back with a smile. Cangsong Daoren stopped slightly in place, naturally he didn't ask about this pearl, and walked out.

In the cave, only Tian Buyi and Xiao Yicai were left.

Tian Buyi walked over with a smile, but when he walked in front of Xiao Yicai and sat down, the smile on his face was gone. He looked back slightly, and said lightly: "Your Uncle Su's temper has always been external and internal, a hundred years ago, she ran to the East China Sea to find that big shell pearl." There is no one at the moment, what is the matter, but it doesn't matter if you say it's okay. ”

Xiao Yicai nodded. looked at Tian Buyi and said, "Uncle Shi is really discerning, I left Uncle Shi behind, in fact, I want to talk to you about your disciple Zhang Xiaofan and Senior Brother Zhang." ”

Tian Buyi frowned, slightly surprised in his heart, and said, "What's wrong with him?" ”

Xiao Yicai coughed and deliberately lowered his voice. Tian Buyi immediately understood, leaned forward slightly, and listened attentively.

In the cave. There was silence, only a faint whisper at the moment, gently echoing.

I don't know when the atmosphere started, it seemed a little depressing, Tian Buyi slowly straightened his body, his face was cloudy, and he couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart - he was very happy to learn that his little apprentice was fine. Although there are some blames for why he has not returned to the mountain for so long, there is no intention to delve into it. But now it seems... Things were far more complicated than he thought, and even the more he listened to Xiao Yicai's story, the more frightened he became. Zhang Xiaofan, this kid is actually involved in the Demon Sect!?

Xiao Yicai was silent for a while, and said, "Uncle Tian, I have hesitated for a long time about this matter, but when I think about it, it is not good to hide it from you..."

Tian is not easy to take a deep breath. Nodding and saying, "Senior Nephew Xiao, I understand what you mean, thank you very much." ”

Xiao Yicai nodded, as if he remembered something, and said, "Uncle Tian." I see that although Senior Brother Zhang knows the Ghost King's father and daughter, he doesn't seem to have entered the evil path, but the people in the Demon Sect are insidious and vicious, and Senior Brother Zhang is young, so I'm afraid that most of them will be a little dangerous. ”

Tian Buyi snorted, his face was like frost, and he said coldly, "That brute, look at how I teach him a lesson when I go back!" ”

Xiao Yicai glanced at him and said, "Uncle Tian, I have a saying, I don't know..."

Tian Buyi said, "You say." ”

Xiao Yicai said, "Yes." Uncle Tian, the reason why I told you about Senior Brother Zhang in private is that I hope that you can handle it well before the matter doesn't get big. Senior Uncle Cangsong has always been in charge of Qingyun's punishment, and his temperament is quite strong, if he knows, he is only afraid of Senior Brother Zhang... It's just that he is your disciple after all, and you must have spent a lot of effort on him over the years, if it really wants to make a big fuss, you and Uncle Cangsong will not look good. So..."He lowered his voice and said, "If Senior Brother Zhang didn't make any big mistakes, you can teach them privately." ”

Tian Buyi raised his head, glanced at him deeply, and suddenly said, "Senior nephew Xiao, you really have the style of a general, and it is not in vain that the senior brother in charge values you so much." It seems that you will be the head of the house in the future. ”

Xiao Yicai bowed his head slightly and said, "Uncle Tian, you have won the award." ”

Tian Buyi's face was as usual at this moment, and he smiled lightly, "Okay!" Rest quickly, too! Your kindness this time, I will remember it in the first vein of Dazhufeng. ”

He didn't know whether it was intentional or not, and he accentuated his tone on the three words "Da Zhufeng".

Xiao Yicai didn't seem to understand anything, and said with a smile, "Uncle Shi is too polite, little nephew, little nephew has one more thing... I don't know if Uncle Tian knows the whereabouts of the sword elder? ”

Tian Buyi was stunned for a moment, but then he shook his head... Liuying never said much to him on weekdays, let alone reported his whereabouts, which was simply a fantasy.

Xiao Yicai frowned when he heard this, but finally didn't say anything, just folded his hands and bent over

"In this way, I won't keep my uncle."

The latter, though confused, only nodded, stood up and walked out.

…

For a long time, Tian Buyi stood alone in a secluded place in the woods, standing with his hands in his hands.

It was the middle of the night, the sky was full of stars, the moon was hanging high, and the bright moonlight shone down through the lush branches and leaves of the forest, and fell on him. From the darkness, his brow furrowed slightly, and it was clear that he was thinking about something.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.

Tian Buyi turned around, looked back, and was suddenly stunned, "It's you?" ”

The person who came was his wife, Su Ru. I saw that in this bleak night, in the silent forest, she walked quietly, and it seemed that in an instant, all eyes were on her.

It seems that all these years have not erased half of her beauty.

Tian Buyi nodded, glanced at Su Ru, and seemed to want to say something, but still didn't speak.

Su Ru said lightly, "You have been to see Xiao Yicai since the evening, and you have been frowning when you came back, is there anything wrong?" ”

Tian Buyi let out a sigh of relief, his face relaxed, and he smiled, "I also know that I can't hide it from you." As he spoke, he told him what Xiao Yicai said to him about Zhang Xiaofan.

Su Ru listened silently, and after pondering for a while, she shook her head and said, "Let's not talk about whether Xiao Fan knows the ghost king of the Demon Sect and his daughter, but even if they do, if you want to say that Xiao Fan has entered the Demon Sect, or even that he is a spy of the Demon Sect who infiltrated Qingyunmen, I definitely don't believe it." ”

Tian Buyi snorted and said, "I don't need to say this, I know it." Hey, I used to take in six apprentices, from the eldest to the sixth, none of them were so troublesome and annoying to me! ”

Su Ru glanced at him and said with a smile, "But from the eldest to the sixth, there is no one like him who shows your face in the Seven Veins Test!" ”

Tian Buyi suffocated for a moment, but he refused to admit defeat, rolled his eyes, and said, "Cut, is that also called showing your face?" It was struck like a charred stone by thunder. said so, but in fact, he was extremely satisfied with Zhang Xiaofan in his heart, otherwise he would not have cultivated like this.

Su Ru knew her husband's temper very well, and when she heard this, she laughed even more, and said, "Oops! My Senior Brother Tian, I heard that three hundred years ago, when you participated in the Seven Veins Martial Arts Test, you only entered the top four! ”
