It was getting late, and the clouds in the sky were a deep blue color.

Truman was on the back side of the mountain, the sunset could not be seen, the green branches and leaves swayed on the mountainside, and in the silence of no one around, even the sound of the wind passing through the tips of the grass could be heard clearly.

Chu Yingchan stood under the door, her waterfall-like hair was only tied to the ends of her hair with a snow-white ribbon, blowing through her thin waist, her figure was obviously proud and graceful, but there was no confusion and charm, and there was only a hazy charm when she saw it.

Lin Shouxi, who was well-dressed in black clothes, stood a few steps behind her, he calmly looked at the young woman in front of him, and the color of struggle flashed several times in the depths of his black pupils, and then quickly faded.

When he was in the Divine Domain, Lin Shouxi relied on the suppression of the Divine Domain to restrain her with the Divine Attendant Order, he originally thought that once he left the Divine Domain, Chu Yingchan returned to the second level of the Immortal Realm, he would no longer be able to restrain her, and they would also be enemies when they met again, but Lin Shouxi never thought that he would become a nominal master and apprentice with her.

At the beginning of the Three Realms Village, Zhong Wushi asked him about his identity, and he said that he was a disciple of Chu Yingchan, and he was originally just casually perfunctory, and he never wanted to say a word about it.

Chu Yingchan didn't think about it today.

The turmoil in Shengyun Pavilion has passed, and it is unrealistically quiet at the moment. She knew that Lin Shouxi was only looking for Xiao He's whereabouts, and the divine servant in her body was unsolved, as long as he wanted to, he could force her to answer at any time, and then leave the mountain.

And that was the best ending, she had delayed him for two days, and if he had a grudge, he might have done something even more excessive.

It was a willful move to accept him as a disciple, and if he really did this, Chu Yingchan was not qualified to complain about anything.

She stood there, her dress plain, her posture out of the dust, but she was already a lamb to the slaughter, and life and death were all up to the young man's will.

They all seemed to be waiting for each other to speak, but neither spoke.

Lin Shouxi looked at the secluded courtyard in the mountains, his lips opened, and finally took the initiative to speak, saying, "Go and see our mountain gate." ”

Chu Yingchan showed a moment of dazedness.

Lin Shouxi's words were beyond her expectations, she stood still for a while, then turned around, and said softly 'Okay', her white skirt swayed slightly, and floated into the green jade courtyard.

Lin Shouxi followed her.

Walking through the stone path overgrown with weeds, and passing through the courtyard newly engraved with the word Chu, Lin Shouxi saw a white deer with a light pattern, which stood in a dark corner and looked at Lin Shouxi fearfully, not daring to approach, Chu Yingchan walked over, stroked the deer's neck, pulled it closer, and brought it to Lin Shouxi.

The white deer sniffed Lin Shouxi, as if he was familiar with his scent, Lin Shouxi also felt that this little deer was very cute, it looked at its brown antlers, and couldn't help but think of the antler tea in the demon gate in the past.

The deer is also very spiritual, it seems to sense a hint of danger, and it got up and ran to the side with its little hooves, Chu Yingchan smiled softly, and led Lin Shouxi through the grass and into the inner hall.

The geographical location of this mountain gate is not good, it is located on the cloudy mountainside, the humidity is very heavy, and the wild grass is also luxuriant, squeezing the living space of many immortal plants, so after so many years, no one has come to live here, when Chu Yingchan first came, the weeds taller than her have blocked the road, and she has been taking care of it alone for a long time.

"This is the front hall, and guests can be here in the future, but the time is in a hurry, and there are no furniture and utensils here, so it looks colder." Chu Yingchan said.

Lin Shouxi glanced around the room with only four walls and nodded.

Passing through the front hall, there is a deep courtyard, surrounded on three sides by corridors, and the pillars are covered with winding vines, their strong strips of paper tightly wound around the beams, and the leaves are not the slightest bit yellow, and they are also adorned with purple flowers.

"This place is quiet and spacious, and it can be used as a sword flat in the future, and the morning and evening classes on weekdays, and the practice of swords can be carried out here." Chu Yingchan stretched out her fingers and compared the drawings in the courtyard, planning the use of every inch of land.

Lin Shouxi looked at her Qingning's serious cheeks, couldn't bear to disturb, listened to her silently, and said hello again.

Walking along the corridor, there are two wooden attics in the back, the locks of the attics have rusted, Lin Shouxi knocked it with his sword, and the rust fell down.

"This is the book building, which will be used to store the scriptures and some pill furnaces in the future, and this is the sword building, which is the place to store weapons in the future." Chu Yingchan pointed to the two buildings on the left and the right and said.

Now these two buildings are empty, there are no books, pills, no swords, and even ......

"They don't have names yet." Chu Yingchan said.

Lin Shouxi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I'm not good at choosing names. ”

"Then don't take it yet." Chu Yingchan took off the black ruler, cut the lock, and pushed the door open.

The talisman paper in the building to ward off evil spirits was still pasted, and the edge of the paper had been yellowed, and when the door was opened, the dust accumulated on the door fell, forming a brief curtain. Together, they walked into the silent and uninhabited building, where there was nothing but the choking smell of dust, and walked up the spiral wooden staircase, where they pushed the windows open one by one to ventilate the air.

"Where's your Snow Crane Sword? Where did it go? Lin Shouxi looked at the iron ruler she was carrying and asked.

"Shizun took it away." She said.

"You're already like this, why should she make it worse?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Master does this...... It has its own meaning. Chu Yingchan couldn't find any other reason.

"What is the origin of this iron ruler?" Lin Shouxi asked.

The slender black iron ruler is slender and straight, its surface has no lines, showing a glaze-like black and bright color, it can be seen that it is delicately forged, Lin Shouxi thought it had some origins.

"In the past, when I made mistakes, the master often punished me with it, and now the master has given it to me, hoping that I will take it as a warning." Chu Yingchan's voice was very soft, as if she was talking about an ordinary thing.

Lin Shouxi remembered the scene of Mu Shijing being beaten on the knee by the fox Qiu goddess under the mulberry tree, and he knew it in his heart, but the woman in front of him was quiet and elegant, noble and indescribable, and he was a little difficult to imagine that scene.

"Your master is really harsh." Lin Shouxi said.

Chu Yingchan is not like Mu Shijing, she will not speak ill of her master behind her back, she only said: "It is said that this is the training of the master, and it is also the hard work of the master." ”

Lin Shouxi did not continue on this topic, he said: "What happened after the Divine Domain, Bai Zhu told me. ”

"The things of the Divine Realm are caused by me, if you blame me......"

"Nope."

Lin Shouxi interrupted her words, in the past period of time, he really hated Chu Yingchan...... Killing Yun Zhenren that day should have ended, if it weren't for her arrival, why would they have to go to the Divine Court, but now he understands more and more that most of the so-called mistakes in the world are arranged by the gods, Chu Yingchan is no different from him, they are all involuntary pawns, and the Divine Domain is enlightened, even if Chu Yingchan does not appear, he will definitely go there for other reasons.

"Thank you for protecting Xiao He." Lin Shouxi expressed his gratitude instead.

Chu Yingchan didn't take this thanks, her hand lightly hit the window string, looked at the gradually darkening sky divided between the ridges of the leaves, and said, "Shizun once wanted to accept Miss Xiaohe as an apprentice, but she refused...... If she had come down, you would have met on this mountain by now. ”

“……”

Although Lin Shouxi often jokes that Xiao He escaped without apprenticeship, Chu Yingchan was right, and he couldn't help but regret it in his heart.

"I heard that Xiao He has been with you a lot this year?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Hmm." Chu Yingchan said: "I have traveled with her in many places, footprints all over most of the sacred mountains, and I have seen many beautiful and interesting things on the way, if you want to hear it, I can talk to you." ”

Although Xiao He never admitted it, in the eyes of others, she and Chu Yingchan were already close friends.

"Xiao He...... How is she? "Compared with beautiful scenery and interesting stories, Lin Shouxi cares more about her.

"She misses you so much." Chu Yingchan said.

The two were speechless.

Chu Yingchan originally wanted to tell him that when she learned that he was still alive, she was also extremely happy, maybe she was happy for Xiao He, maybe it was something else, but the silence at this moment trapped her, she didn't speak, and kept silent.

They had known each other for a short time, and they became masters and apprentices, and it was inevitable that they would be unfamiliar, and the silence after the conversation magnified this rustiness, and they were in the same empty building, and they were a little at a loss for a while.

"There is nothing in the building, it's really shabby, you are a first-generation disciple, don't dislike it." Chu Yingchan thought for a while and said.

"There will always be, I believe Miss Chu." Lin Shouxi simply comforted.

"Hmm."

Chu Yingchan's gaze slowly brushed over the empty building, as if she saw the dazzling bibliography here in the future, and pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Lin Shouxi caught this smile, he originally thought that Chu Yingchan was just completing the task of master, but now he realized that she might really want to build this mountain gate. In the Shengyun Pavilion, Chu Yingchan heard the words he had said to himself vividly, and he didn't feel anything at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he is a little moved.

The two went downstairs together.

Before the window was closed, a flock of birds flew closer, chirping and chirping, as if to make this place their home.

Downstairs, Lin Shouxi looked into the depths of the forest.

"Is there any building in there?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Maybe it's gone." Chu Yingchan said. The size of the Trumen was as large as her boudoir in the Chu State, and it was the smallest of the twenty-four gates.

"But there's still a way out." Lin Shouxi said.

Chu Yingchan looked at the looming mountain road and said, "Then go and have a look." ”

The two walked along the mountain road, which was full of thorns and intertwined like a net, and they cut through the thorns together, so they did not walk fast.

It was getting dark, the trees were deep and the trees were thick, the birds were faint, there were no houses around, they didn't know what would be in front of them, it was completely dark, and the surroundings were dark. In the cool autumn night, Lin Shouxi smelled the elegant fragrance, and couldn't tell whether it was the wild orchid in the forest or the fragrance of the fairy.

After passing through the potholed forest road, the eyes suddenly opened up.

Heaven and earth are empty.

At the end of the forest road is a whole whole stone cliff, there is no vegetation on the stone cliff, from here, the sky is high and the earth is far away, everything seems to have lost its secret. Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan stood side by side, in front of them, the lonely and cold waning moon slowly rose through the floating mist and thin clouds, the silver light sprinkled down, the stone cliff was reflected by the moonlight, transparent as jade, and the fairy's clothes and shadows were also lined with mountains and moons.

The wind and clouds in the sky were turbulent and lurking, passing through the gaps in the mountains and forests, making whale-like sounds, but the world was quieter.

……

"Is it pretty?"

Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan looked at the autumn moon from afar, and the woman's question suddenly sounded.

Lin Shouxi originally thought it was Chu Yingchan's voice and wanted to answer, but when he looked back carefully, he found that the voice was much more indifferent, as if it was a wind mixed with snow.

Master?

Chu Yingchan turned her head and looked at the fox Qiu woman who appeared on the cliff like a ghost in front of her, and she no longer had the heart to admire the moon.

This person who arrived was Chu Yingchan and Mu Shijing's master, and he was the owner of the Yunkong Mountain Immortal Tower. In order to track down the whereabouts of the King of Cangbi, she went to the vast north, Lin Shouxi originally thought that she would not come back until a long time later, but she never thought that she would meet again today.

On the stone of the moonlight, the palace language stands like a ritual, the beautiful jade body is exquisite, she does not hide her face, the ink hair is pouring out, the lips are cold, the long eyes of the autumn water reflect the fine moon, indescribable elegance and grace, and the wide fox fur is slightly divided, revealing the milky white shoulders and exquisite collarbones, and the holy beauty is filled with a trace of demonization. She didn't carry a sword, but she carried a slender wooden box with something inside.

"What? Have I disturbed you? A playful smile rose at the corner of Gong Yu's lips.

"Nope." Chu Yingchan immediately said, "The disciple just didn't expect that the master would appear here and now. ”

Lin Shouxi also settled down and said, "The fish fairy is ......."

"I couldn't find her." Gong Yu said with regret.

She slashed demons all the way, and was in the snow-capped mountains of the north, where she searched for three days and three nights, and saw nothing but the vast snow, and then to the north near the polar ice sea, she did not bring a sword, did not try to take risks, and returned to the mountains for the time being.

She has too many thoughts in her heart, and she plans to comb and think about it after returning to the mountain.

"I hope she's safe." Lin Shouxi said.

He wished he could see the three-flowered cat again, not a mad dragon.

"I didn't expect you to really receive an apprentice." Gong Yu smiled and said, "Yingchan, you shouldn't have used any wrong means, right?" ”

"Disciple ......" Chu Yingchan panicked slightly, as the master expected, she forced Lin Shouxi to worship at the mountain gate.

Lin Shouxi defended her again: "I voluntarily joined Chumen and worshipped Miss Chu as my teacher." ”

Chu Yingchan's red lips trembled slightly, and she bit lightly with her teeth.

"I was a little angry when I accepted you as an apprentice and you rejected me, but now it seems that you are wrong, it turns out that you want to be my apprentice." Gong Yu said to Lin Shouxi with a smile.

Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan glanced at each other, they were both very interested, and they didn't pick up the master's words.

Gong Yu walked to their side and looked at the fine moon together, after a while, she withdrew her eyes, closed her eyes for a while, and looked at Lin Shouxi deeply again, Lin Shouxi was not used to this kind of look, he always felt that she had recognized something wrong.

"Did you make the way back?" Gong Yu asked.

"It's going well." Lin Shouxi said.

"What have you experienced?" Gong Yu asked again.

There was no need for Gong Yu to ask more, Lin Shouxi was ready to tell her what he had seen and heard about the dragon corpse-like human bones, and he roughly told her about the broken temple and the demon, and then he mistakenly found Bai Zhu at the Wu family and traveled together in the snow.

When talking about the dragon corpse and human remains, the face of this cold goddess also changed.

"Are you sure?" Gong Yu asked seriously.

"Sure." Lin Shouxi said: "At that time, Mu Shijing and Bai Zhu were also by their side, and the teacher ...... If the master doesn't believe it, you can ask them. ”

Gong Yu's chest rose and fell, pondered for a long time, and finally only whispered, "Is the legend true?"

The legends in her mouth were not well-known legends, but stories that her mother had inadvertently told her when she was a child, and those small stories that she still remembers, in which her mother called the immortal human skeleton 'immortal'.

Then, Lin Shouxi told the matter of Shengyun Pavilion again.

"Lu Yushen?" Gong Yu called her name directly, and said coldly: "This girl is really getting more and more presumptuous, and she dares to bully my disciples, because I am negligent in disciplining." Don't worry, the teacher will go to ask for justice for you. ”

Lu Yushen is Fairy Lu's real name, and the palace language is the same age as her, but she calls her a girl.

"Actually, it's nothing......" Chu Yingchan said softly.

"Nothing? It's okay to bully you like this? When you were still an immortal, you were too empty-eyed, and after you fell into the realm, you were too obedient, like this...... Not good. Gong Yu's words were originally very heavy, but he said it lightly like a sigh.

"Disciple understands." Chu Yingchan said.

"Understood? I see you don't understand anything. Gong Yu said coldly: "Later, I will go to Xianlou, I have something to tell you." ”

"Why doesn't Shizun ...... now" Chu Yingchan was halfway through her words, met Shizun's deep and cold eyes, immediately closed her lips, and said softly: "Disciple knows." ”

Gong Yu glanced at Lin Shouxi one last time, turned around and left, and disappeared in just an instant, as if crumpled in the moonlight.

After the master disappeared, Lin Shouxi looked at Chu Yingchan with inquiring eyes.

It's all in plain sight.

"I'll tell you where Xiao He is." Chu Yingchan finally spoke.

……

In the immortal building, Bai Zhu pressed his cheeks with both hands, and sat at the table with a smile, looking at Sister Mu who was chasing Qilin outside the door, and couldn't accept the fact that she was actually his senior sister.

Although Sister Mu is also a good person in nature, she can't help but bully herself too much. It is conceivable that in the future, Bai Zhu's life in the immortal tower will be full of wits and courage, although Bai Zhu is a smart and brave Bai Zhu, but the enemy is too terrible, and Bai Zhu is not sure how long he can support it.

"Xiaobai Zhu, why are you sighing? Don't you like me as a senior sister? Mu Shijing walked into the house and came to her side.

"No, Bai Zhuke is happy." Bai Zhu said with a sad face.

"What was agreed with Bai Zhu, don't forget it." Mu Shijing said.

"Of course I won't forget." Bai Zhu said: "We set off from Wu's house after the snow stopped. ”

Bai Zhu didn't know what to say about this panic.

"Then these days, has Senior Sister bullied you?" Mu Shijing asked again.

Bai Zhu's body shrank back, and he was forced to say helplessly: "Of course not, the kind senior sister has been taking care of the weak Bai Zhu." ”

"Well, that's good." Mu Shijing nodded with satisfaction and reached out to rub Bai Zhu's cheek.

Of course Bai Zhu didn't like this feeling of being manipulated by the demon girl at will, she looked at Mu Shijing pitifully, wanting to dodge, but where could she escape, at this moment, Bai Zhu noticed something, looked out of the door, and said in surprise:

"Master, are you back?"

"Master?" Mu Shijing didn't look back, but smiled: "Bai Zhu has also learned badly, he knows how to deceive people, but this method is too old-fashioned, and he can't deceive his senior sister." Shizun should still be in the snowy mountains in the north now, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come back without ten days and a half months, so Bai Zhu is still dead. ”

Mu Shijing spoke, but his voice became softer and softer.

Footsteps sounded behind him.
