Chapter 25: A Duo

Summer is coming, and the sound of cicadas is beginning to chirp. The blue sky is blank and the clouds are fluttering, and the sunlight shines through, shining on everything on the earth.

The jungle on both sides of the road is lush and green, and I don't know what kind of trees are luxuriant, and the light breeze blows, the shadows of the branches and leaves in the sun shake, and the sound of the clattering is also different and refreshing.

On the road, a girl in a flower skirt led the head of a sturdy donkey, the donkey's forehead was conspicuous with white hair, the girl's arm holding the rope swayed and swayed, and the footsteps were even more cheerful and lively. On the back of the donkey sat a young man in a gray linen with a straw hat on his head, and his eyes were as bright as the stars of the night, but his face was not very good.

Ah Qing and Xian'er quietly left Yecheng and did not say goodbye to the county commander Xi Mengbao. It's really because this county order is too "polite". When Ah Qing was injured and recuperating at the "Laifu Inn", he often came to visit, carrying various tonic medicines. The officials of the city went to this small inn every day, and the people in the city finally knew that these two "little fairies" lived here. The inn business also began to boom, and the people wanted to see the fairy demeanor, and the shopkeeper and the little two were even more smiling. Where did they think that these two young girls who are not very big are actually students of the ordinary academy, how far away spirituality is to the people, only rumored in the market, and now there are two in front of them, Laifu Inn is really "Laifu", these days the shopkeeper and Xiao Er treat Ah Qing with awe in their expressions, and they are no longer as comfortable as when they first met.

The cultivation of Ah Qing Fan's first-class rank was vulnerable in front of Bulin Xuanjie, and the spiritual power in his body was absorbed by the toad, and he lay on the bed for a few days before he got better. Fortunately, the unreliable master Zhou Tongyou came to check on the injury, and there was no sequelae, saying that Bulin's dark attribute spiritual power was only found and seriously injured by Bu Xingchen when it was just a beginning, and Linghai was injured, and his strength dropped a lot, and he hid in Yecheng to do the dirty thing of "Hebo marrying".

When Zhou Tong shook his head and spoke, Xian'er kept staring at him, his small mouth pursed, and the pupils that were already the color of ordinary people were even more aura. Zhou Tong did not change his color under Xian'er's sharp eyes at the enemy, and walked out of the door calmly.

Of course, when Ah Qing was recuperating from his injury, he finally didn't have to lay on the floor, and slept softly, as for Xian'er still insisting on sleeping in the same room, it was naturally a bunk.

Senior brother Bu Xingchen came to visit Ah Qing, and his temperament was still so unapproachable, but the concern contained in his cold and plain words was obvious, and there was also self-blame. If it weren't for Bu Xingchen's carelessness and being tricked by Bu Lin and sneaking up on the two of them, then Ah Qing would not have been injured to such a situation.

Ah Qing said with a smile that it was not a big deal, but he was still too weak, and what he usually learned and practiced did not work at all and was beaten like this, and he would have to work harder in the future.

In the battle with Bulin, Ah Qing had no power to fight back, and the gap between the cultivators was like this.

Bu Xingchen sighed, hesitated, and finally told the two about Bulin.

The "Hidden Spirit" organization has existed since ancient times, and it is extremely evil, instigating the war of the three clans and killing the spirit clan at the same time to seize the luck of heaven and earth. There are many strongholds of hidden spirits in the three tribes, and they are all over the world, tempting and looking for spiritual practitioners to join the organization and do evil in the world. And Bu Xingchen's parents and Bu Lin's parents were besieged and killed in an operation to exterminate the stronghold due to wrong intelligence, and the young Bu Xingchen was naughty, and he insisted on following his parents to "see" it, but he watched his parents evacuate and die in front of them in order to protect their three people safely.

When he said this, Bu Xingchen's tone was flat, but the sword qi in the room was rampant, cold and sharp.

And Bu Lin's parents, who were traveling together, were also seriously injured in order to protect Bu Xingchen, and they returned to the family and died forever. If there was no nonsense of stepping into the stars at the beginning, as long as the four spirit rank sword cultivators were not the presence of a saint-level powerhouse, they would be able to leave no matter what. Bu Xingchen has since converged his personality and lived alone.

And Bu Lin Bu Xingchen and the two have had a very good relationship since childhood, and the blood between their playmates is thicker than water. Since then, Bu Lin has suffered a huge blow and hated Bu Xingchen. I don't know when, Bu Lin came into contact with the "hidden spirit", and the spiritual power of the water attribute was transformed into the dark attribute, and even absorbed the spiritual power of the juniors in the clan. When Bu Xingchen found out, he was furious and beat him to a serious injury. Although the Sword Cultivation Family is not one of the Eight Great Families, it was fearless and sacrificed for the human race in the War of the Three Clans, and it was a great sacrifice to clear the hidden spirits.

However, in the end, he still let Bu Lin run away, and finally hid in Yecheng, relying on absorbing the spiritual power of a spiritual embryo woman to recuperate.

Ah Qing and Xian'er, who learned the ins and outs of the matter, fell silent, and Bu Xingchen said goodbye and left, saying that he would take Bu Lin back to the family. As for the rest of Bu Lin's life, he will spend it in the Bujia Sword Prison.

Before Bu Xingchen left, he asked Ah Qing if he wanted to practice swords. Ah Qing politely refused, saying that he was just a fledgling now, and it was better to be single-minded in his cultivation.

The flood in Yecheng was lifted, and the water level of the Zhanghe River was restored as before, and Xi Mengbao personally led people to dig ditches and make canals to divert water for irrigation, which was praised and applauded. The farmland is nourished, and the original yellowed seedlings are revived.

The story of "Hebo's marriage" spread in the city and gradually spread to other places, saying that it was the immortals in the ordinary academy who eliminated harm for the people, and the "sword fairy" Bu Xingchen and the "bride" fairy were naturally the protagonists in the story.

The flow of people in Yecheng has rebounded, and the people who have left over the years have returned to the city, which is thriving.

A week later, Ah Qing and Xian'er quietly left the city, followed Zhou Tong's instructions, and set off again.

The jade neck is tied with a red rope, and the waist-length hair dances, draped on the back and swayed from side to side with the movements of the fairy. Without the eye-catching pink of the past, the fairy at this time, with black hair and a flower dress, has the feeling of a sister next door.

"Ah Qing, you said that the woman with red spots and acne on her face is really pitiful. Xian'er said suddenly.

Ah Qing pondered for a moment and said: "That sister is not beautiful, jealous of the beauty of other women, often plays tricks on others, and uses scissors to cut people's faces, and the people in the city don't like her. ”

These words are said by Xiao Er in the inn, the granddaughter of the old court, named Dong Shi, often learn from other women to dress up, if someone says that it is not good-looking, they will go up and punch and kick, in Yecheng is a female ruffian bully, acting flamboyantly.

"No, I mean, she died at the hands of someone she didn't care about her life to protect. Xian'er was talking, but Ah Qing suddenly understood what it meant.

The woman named Dong Shi had a frightened expression when she died, and the scene of her blood and vitality being sucked up by Bu Lin and becoming a dried corpse was vividly in her mind.

Ah Qing lowered her head and was silent, and Xian'er led the donkey to walk slowly.

The shadows of two people and a donkey under the sun are gradually stretched and drift away.

......

The Great Chu Imperial Palace is magnificent, with red lacquer high gates, gold lacquer dragon tours, and from time to time there are ironclad soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army patrolling the imperial city.

The name of "Emperor Ling" resounded throughout the three clans, and when the Gaoyang clan was founded, all the people cheered, and the successive kings of Great Chu worked hard to govern the country, and they were diligent and loved the people. The territory of the Great Chu Dynasty is deep in the hinterland of the human race, and it is the most peaceful country and people.

At this time, a garden in the palace is fragrant with birds and flowers, and the small pond rockery is murmuring, and the scenery is pleasant. A beautiful palace maid handed the plate to the old eunuch standing at the door of the garden room, and the old eunuch nodded lightly to signal the palace maid to retreat, turned around and carefully entered the house.

The door of this house hangs a plaque, and the three words "imperial study" of rosewood and gold lacquer are magnificent.

As the head of the eunuchs in the palace, Chen Li is old, with white hair hanging down on his temples, and he has served this Chu Jun for more than 30 years. Accompanying the king like a companion tiger cannot be used to describe this king who is flipping through the thousands of miles in his hand. The eunuch cautiously placed the fruit jade plate in his hand on the desk.

When he turned to leave the study, he was relieved to see the golden-haired princess sitting next to him winking at him. This princess, His Royal Highness, also grew up with him.

The golden dragon robe's brows furrowed from time to time, and finally closed the fold, sighed, and said, "Yue'er, this matter of Yecheng turned out to be a hindrance from that step?"

Gao Yangyue, the princess of Great Chu, was dressed in a golden silk phoenix robe, sat upright on one side and replied: "Yes, father, I just learned about it." Bu Lin is cautious and sinister, hiding in Yecheng for three years, if it weren't for Ah Qing and Xian'er passing through here, Yecheng would probably still be like that. ”

"This Mu Qing and Mu Xian'er are Yue'er's classmates?" the Great Chu Monarch looked at his favorite daughter and asked.

Gao Yangyue's mind came to mind the back of the thin young man running in the morning in the academy, and the smile on his face bloomed, like the rising sun in the dawn: "Yes, father." ”

Seeing his daughter smiling like this, Gao Yangyuan, the Great Chu Monarch, asked, "Son of Mu Ze, Mu Qing?"

Gao Yangyue nodded, when she was alone with her father, she didn't have too many constraints.

"Mu Ze... Mu Ze..."The Great Chu Monarch muttered to himself, and then asked, "What about this Mu Xian'er?"

"Xian'er is the Peach Blossom Spirit Clan. Gao Yangyue said.

"Peach Blossom Spirit?" the Great Chu Monarch repeated, his words full of disbelief.

Gao Yangyue nodded again, and sighed quietly in her heart, the fate in the world is the most wonderful. There was some loss on her beautiful face that couldn't be hidden.

Knowing that a daughter is like a father, Emperor Dachu said: "When will you bring Mu Qing to let me see me." There seems to be something wrong with the order of honor and humility in the words, but the tone is joking.

Gao Yangyue's cheeks flushed, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Father, what are you talking about?" "The youngest daughter's posture is on Gao Yangyue, who has a noble temperament, and she has a unique flavor.

The Great Chu Emperor laughed, and the dragon face was happy.

......

There is always a hint of heat in the summer wind, even at night.

Ah Qing and Xian'er walked under the bright galaxy, and the donkey followed behind the two, with four hooves slowly. The starry night sky is intoxicating, and the stars are eternally shining.

Half a day after leaving Yecheng, Ah Qing's injuries had healed, and after healing, he began to cultivate again. At Aqing's insistence, the two no longer live in the inn, and sleeping in the open can naturally be described as two people and a donkey.

Along the way, in the alleys of the towns, fairies are always attracted by all kinds of fresh gadgets, farms and fields, strange traffic, and chickens and dogs.

Occasionally, they stayed at someone's house, and the kind-hearted family talked about the local customs, Xian'er and A-Qing listened to it with relish, and the children of the family also sat together, looking at A-Qing and Xian'er's curious nature.

Of course, the two of them also encountered robbers, but only once. The peace of the people of the Great Chu Dynasty is not a lie, how rich the people are can't say, and everyone has no worries about food and clothing. In the event of drought and flood, the government's material supply is also enough to live.

These robbers were amazed by Xian'er's face, and they wanted to rob more than money. Xian'er pretended to be weak, with tears in her eyes, and her superb acting skills surprised Ah Qing on the side, and sighed to herself. Then the obscene smiles of the five robbers turned into screams begging for mercy, shouting, "Sister fairy, spare your life." Xian'er clapped her palms triumphantly and showed off to Ah Qing, who naturally rolled her eyes and didn't do anything to these robbers.

Life is indeed not easy, hateful people must have pity, Ah Qing didn't even look at the robber who fell to the ground and screamed bitterly, led the donkey away, just left a bag of silver money and the robber's dumbfounded.

The two of them walked all the way, accompanied only by the sturdy donkey.

As for Master Zhou Tong, he disappeared again, and he didn't teach Ah Qing how to cultivate, but just said that he would go with the flow. At that time, when she said this, Xian'er opened her teeth and danced her claws, and was about to go up and punch and kick this sloppy dean, Zhou Tong saw that the situation was not good, and threw down the geographical map that had drawn the route, and slipped away, and took the sword away, and the demeanor was really impressive.

Of course, Ah Qing's cultivation really doesn't need any guidance, and his grandmother has already handed over the codex left by Ah Qing's father, Mu Ze, to Ah Qing. The codex is ordinary, but the font that records the method of cultivating the ethereal body is very elegant, and the book is written in one go, and Ah Qing moves carefully when he takes out the codex, this is the second item left by his parents to Ah Qing, and as for the first one, it is hanging on Xian'er's chest.

The Codex states that the ethereal body contains all spirits, and all aura can be absorbed and converted into spiritual power. The perfect fit of the aura caused the initial cultivation of the ethereal body to only focus on a certain attribute, so the vice dean asked Ah Qing to follow Master Yun Rou to cultivate the fire attribute.

The attributes are mutually restrictive, water and fire are incompatible, the fire can be blown out by the wind, the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and the fertile soil and green trees are thick and dense, the water is soluble in the soil, and the soil is loose but sticky...... The relationship between these attributes, in the final analysis, is still a collision of spiritual power realms. Fan, Xuan, Ling, Holy, One Realm and Three Qualities, the Way of Cultivation, Iron Lock Hengjiang, Difficult and Difficult.

As for where his light attribute spiritual power came from, Ah Qing thought that it should be related to the trip to the bottom of Longhu Lake, but he didn't know what was going on, for Senior Sister Gao Yangyue, the fourteen-year-old boy already had a strange feeling, a girl with golden hair, a beautiful face, as long as she was by her side, it was the most sunny place, but it was not dazzling and hot.

Thinking of this, Ah Qing shook his head and scattered the thoughts in his mind. Seeing this on Ah Qing's side, Xian'er slapped Ah Qing's head, not light or heavy, but the sound was crisp.

Ah Qing, who had a bright galaxy above his head, and the two of them "fought" in this no-man's land.

Naturally, it's not a real fight, it's just a confrontation between the two of them sharpening each other. There is hand-to-hand combat that deceives oneself, and there is also a method of fighting with brilliant spiritual power. Ah Qing, who cultivated to the first grade of the mortal rank, naturally failed again and again, and the fairy also liked this cultivation method proposed by Ah Qing more and more, and every time he started, Ah Qing would suffer pain, which of course was also proposed by Ah Qing.

However, Ah Qing's current dual attributes, the transformation between light and fire, also gave Xian'er a headache. The scorching heat of the fire attribute, Ah Qing threw out many fireballs and smashed them at him in an instant, Xian'er could only dodge, and the bursting fireball would explode when it touched it, and Xian'er would pull Ah Qing's ear, who was still beaten, and said that it burned to her skirt every time she was finished.

As for the light attribute, Ah Qing doesn't know how to use it, but it is just a comparison of the fire attribute, and Ah Qing will be smoother to walk out of the "peak back eighteen steps" when mobilizing the spiritual power of the light attribute, and he can already take six steps at the moment. When he fought against Xian'er, he naturally didn't use the footwork taught by Gao Yangyue, and when he fought against Bulin at the bottom of the river that day, Ah Qing didn't have a chance to use it.

This is the role of actual combat, there is no spiritual power, but the body method cannot be used at the right time, which is no different from nothing.

The figures of the two were staggered under the bright galaxy, and the spiritual power struggle was bright, and a field of weeds overwhelmed or burned to ashes. In the end, the two of them lay on the field and grass, Ah Qing gasped for breath, and her body was full of pain, and Xian'er had a satisfied smile on her face.

The stars in the sky turned, and the curtain on earth fell.

Ah Qing finally broke through, and he was a third-grade person.
