Chapter Ninety-Four: Outside the Peach Spring, the Mysterious Monk

Of course, Lu Jiuge also noticed this scene, and he had a good idea of how good he would be if he didn't know Lu Changge.

Nan Sheng didn't expect that Lu Changge would be so cheeky to make up a messy lie, which was so shameless that it distorted her outlook on life.

However, this matter did not attract many people's attention, and tonight's Panlong Banquet was just a pure banquet, asking each other for advice on cultivation, and it was also for the young monks to take a look at each other.

When the time comes, they can rest directly in the pavilion, or the mountain gates located in the capital, such as the Ligong Sword Courtyard and the Buluo Mountain, can also go back directly first, and there are also Xianfu inns specially established for cultivators in the capital, all of which are properly arranged.

Naturally, there will be people from the court at the Panlong banquet, and there will also be teachers from the various mountain gates who go to the banquet, and they are all sitting together at this time, silently watching what is happening in the banquet.

In addition to the local Confucian orthodox Pear Blossom Academy and the Star Picking Mansion, the Ligong Sword Academy, and the Buluo Mountain Gate in the capital, there are not a thousand but hundreds of mountain gates from all over the Jiang Kingdom.

Since the Panlong Banquet is open to the entire Jiang Kingdom's cultivation for young monks who have reached the top level of the Three Realms, it naturally includes almost all the cultivation mountain sects of the Jiang Kingdom, but it does not include those Three Realms Sects that are completely unpopular, after all, even the head of the sect has not crossed the threshold of the Four Realms, and it is difficult for his disciples to have any geniuses.

In view of the occurrence of exceptions, the Panlong Banquet will not refuse the arrival of the Three Realms Sect, as long as it is determined that the disciples who go to the banquet are in the cultivation realm and age are qualified.

Cultivators attending the banquet must also be at least in the Chengyi Upper Realm, and their age must not exceed 25 years old, otherwise they will not be qualified to cross the threshold outside the building.

On the second floor of the Panlong Banquet, the teachers and elders who accompanied their disciples to the banquet also gathered together, many of whom were people who had known each other before, and naturally there would be many topics to talk about, and the ones who talked the most were undoubtedly those young monks who went to the banquet.

There was no teacher in the academy and Pujia Garden, and Ning Haoran and Xie Chunfeng were present in the Sword Academy of the Imperial Palace and Buluo Mountain, and Shen Qiubai also represented the Star Picking Mansion, but in addition to Shen Qiubai, Zhong Xiyan, the chief senior brother of the Star Picking Mansion, was also there.

The people who went to the banquet in the court included Xu Hexian of the Xuanzheng Division, Yue Shiting of the Yushitai, Fan Wuwei of the Water Mirror Division, and Qingyi of the Heavenly Lord's Yuan.

Shen Qiubai climbed to the second floor, looked around, and said to Ning Haoran and Xie Chunfeng on the left and right: "Because Ouyang Shengxue of the Sword Academy has not returned from walking in the world, it is normal that he did not appear, but Beizang Feng of the Academy actually did not come, thinking that he really didn't have much interest in this kind of thing. ”

Ning Haoran said: "Mr. Bei's book does not leave his hand, although I see that he only holds a book to read every day, and I don't know what he is reading, but he really doesn't like the atmosphere at the Panlong banquet very much, and tonight is just the beginning, the highlight is tomorrow, and there are not a few who are not present tonight." ”

Xie Chunfeng was silent, and walked towards the front with Shen Qiubai and Ning Haoran, and saluted Xu Hexian, Yue Shiting, Fan Wuwei and other court leaders.

Although in the eyes of such a powerful person as the head of the five divisions in the court, Shen Qiubai and the others are just juniors, but their reputation is too loud, and their identity will rise with the tide, and they will be relatively polite.

After greeting them one by one, Shen Qiubai looked at Qing Yi who was sitting in the corner and said, "Didn't the head of the Jiang courtyard come?"

Qing nodded a little, and said lightly: "The head of the courtyard raised some fish in Tongming Lane, and those fish are very edible, so they have to be fed every day, and they can't get out." ”

Shen Qiubai said: "It's a pity, I thought that the head of the Jiang Academy would also be there, thinking that I could ask the head of the courtyard for some questions about cultivation, so it seems that I can only change it and visit the door." ”

Qing Yi didn't speak, not because he had any opinions about Shen Qiubai, but because he was originally such a character.

Shen Qiubai didn't mind, and found a place to sit down, with a square wooden table in front of him, on which were delicious delicacies from Taiqing Lou, as well as a pot of fine wine.

This was true on the square wooden table in front of everyone.

Xu Hexian glanced at Shen Qiubai silently, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

The night was hazy and slightly rainy.

Under a large peach tree in the Thirty Mile Peach Blossom Garden.

Li Mengzhou sat quietly cross-legged under the tree, his eyes open, and looked thoughtfully at the peach blossom source shrouded in the light rain in front of him.

After a long time, he suddenly said with some sighs: "Although I have touched that threshold, it is really not so simple to cross over. ”

Xiao Zhinan held his sword, stood in the light rain, and looked up at the night sky.

She heard Li Mengzhou's voice, but she didn't look back, just said with a little surprise: "You are very powerful, you broke through to the peak of the Three Realms in such a short period of time, and stood in front of that threshold, even I was not so fast back then." ”

Li Mengzhou said: "It's just a fluke, if you didn't happen to appear here, and you danced a sword with interest, and happened to be seen by me, I'm afraid I haven't broken through the realm yet, let alone approaching the threshold." ”

Xiao Zhinan said: "Luck is also a kind of strength, after all, not everyone has such good luck. ”

Li Mengzhou said suspiciously: "What are you looking at?"

Xiao Zhinan clenched the sword in his hand, shifted his gaze from the night sky to a certain direction, and said, "I found an interesting thing. ”

Li Mengzhou stood up and looked in that direction as well, puzzled, "What's there?"

Xiao Zhinan said: "There are people, it's monks. ”

Li Mengzhou was stunned for a moment, and immediately started his fugue, constantly widening the distance, and finally found a figure completely hidden in the night wrapped in black clothes on the mountain road nearly 100 miles west of the Peach Blossom Spring.

Along the way, there was no sign of people.

In addition to the fact that only this person was found in his fugue distance, this person's outfit was indeed a little unusual, but Li Mengzhou was still very puzzled and said, "That person is so far away from us, what do you think he does?"

Xiao Zhinan said: "Within a radius of a hundred miles near this peach forest, apart from us, he is the only monk, and his cultivation is deliberately hidden, but I can still see that this is a very strong person, so I want to fight him." ”

Li Mengzhou couldn't quite understand Xiao Zhinan's thoughts, and said, "Since you want to fight, why are you just watching here?"

Xiao Zhinan said: "Because he is coming in this direction. ”

Li Mengzhou's face became a little solemn, and he said, "Could it be that he also discovered you?"

Xiao Zhinan's expressionless face showed a strange color, and said, "It's not clear, if you don't come for me, you will go to the capital." ”

Li Mengzhou frowned and said, "The Panlong Banquet has already started tonight, could it be that person also went to the banquet?"

Xiao Zhinan shook his head and said, "Although I can't see the other party's face clearly, judging from his physique and pace, he shouldn't be a young man, and his cultivation realm is also beyond the prescribed realm of the Panlong Banquet." ”

Li Mengzhou didn't think about it so much anymore, and said, "Then wait for him to come." ”

The distance of a hundred miles is by no means a very short distance for ordinary people, and for cultivators, if they have the heart, it will not take much time.

So they just waited for two teas, and the mysterious monk who was completely wrapped in black appeared thirty miles away.

The light rain was still falling.

The mysterious monk carried a knife behind his back, and stepped on the slightly damp mountain road with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

You can see that his legs and feet are slightly inconvenient.

Although he passed by the Peach Blossom Spring, he did not stop here, but walked along the mountain road in the direction of the capital.

In the Peach Blossom Garden, Li Mengzhou and Xiao Zhinan watched this scene.

"Sure enough, I'm going to the capital. ”

Li Mengzhou said: "This person is full of anger, he is not a good person, he should go to the capital to kill people." ”

Xiao Zhinan was silent for a moment, his clenched hand relaxed slightly, and said: "Originally, the distance was far away, the perception was not accurate, and his cultivation was at most the appearance of just breaking through the Wuzhang Upper Realm, which was very weak. ”

Of course, Wuzhang Shangjing is not weak, but for Xiao Zhinan, it is indeed very weak, and she has lost interest.

There are many special strong people in the world, among the monks of the four realms, there are strong people like Ning Haoran and Xie Chunfeng, and there will also be weak people who are in the same realm, but they can't be compared at all, not to mention those who have just broken through to this realm, in Xiao Zhinan's eyes, there is no difference from the monks who have just crossed the threshold of the four realms, it is basically a matter of a sword, and it is really difficult to arouse her desire to fight.

But when Xiao Zhinan decided not to care about the mysterious monk passing by, the other party seemed to finally notice that something was wrong.

There was a slight pause in his feet, and the abnormal feeling of being spied on suddenly came to his mind.

He turned his head to look at the peach blossom garden.

Then, after only a moment's hesitation, he walked over.

Li Mengzhou watched silently and said with a smile: "Now it's for you." ”

Xiao Zhinan said indifferently: "Kill yourself." ”

Li Mengzhou was silent for a moment, thinking about where this killing intent came from?

He was a little silent for the mysterious monk outside the paradise, you can go, why are you coming back?

He glanced at Xiao Zhinan and said hesitantly: "People didn't provoke you, they just passed by, you don't want to kill him, right?"

Xiao Zhinan said calmly: "Because the glance he looked at just now had a hint of killing intent. ”

She didn't deny that she wanted to kill the mysterious monk, but explained it briefly.

Li Mengzhou muttered to himself: "You have been staring at him from a distance of a hundred miles, although he may not have noticed it for a while, but now that it is so close, it is always unpleasant to be spied on, and it is normal to subconsciously show a trace of killing intent, right?"

But think about it carefully, although he was spied on, he didn't really do anything, and it was indeed a bit excessive to directly reveal the idea of killing, so Xiao Zhinan wanted to kill the other party, but it was also reasonable.

Li Mengzhou lowered his eyebrows, and seemed to think about it quickly, he was not a very sympathetic person, if someone showed murderous intent to him, he would also think of finding an opportunity to kill the other party first, although the incident in front of him happened a little inexplicably, but after all, it had nothing to do with him, and he could only sigh that the mysterious monk who passed by was very unlucky.
