Chapter Twenty-Three: Descending the Mountain
For a while, Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping were silent, and the two motherless children walked side by side, each thinking about their own thoughts.
After a long time, Lin Yinping asked coldly, "What are you thinking?"
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, stopped, leaned on a white jade railing, and said slowly: "I haven't walked in the cultivation world, and I guess I won't have many opportunities in the future. Just now I was thinking about a question that I haven't figured out all along. ”
Lin Yinping asked curiously, "What's the problem?"
Xiao Yu said softly: "You are obviously a princess of the world, how can you be rated as one of the four beauties in the cultivation world?"
Lin Yinping was stunned for a moment, then his face was like a red glow, he punched Xiao Yu lightly, and said angrily: "What, I don't deserve this title?"
Xiao Yu hurriedly begged for mercy: "Worthy, of course worthy, who dares to say that it is not worthy, I will be the first not to agree." ”
Lin Yinping turned his anger into joy at this time, smiled smugly, and did not forget to show off his little fist as white as jade to Xiao Yu as if demonstrating.
Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled helplessly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you are satisfied now." ”
Lin Yinping wrinkled his nose and said very playfully: "As long as you recruit from the truth, this palace will not be guilty of the past, and it can be regarded as satisfied." ”
Xiao Yu was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Originally, I was thinking of taking this opportunity to take a walk in the cultivation world, and it is best to go to the northern capital and Houjian to see the scenery of the northeast and see what the difference is from the northwest. But it seems that it can't be done, you have also seen it, today the two sides are only preliminary temptations, I don't know when I will tear my face, if I dare to go to Houjian to wander, I am really deliberately uncomfortable for myself. ”
Lin Yinping said in a low voice: "A wave of unevenness has risen again and again. ”
Xiao Yu raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and said indifferently: "The sudden turmoil is a precursor to a rainstorm, of course, it will not be easily subsided." Have you ever seen a storm on the sea? I read a similar record when I was a child, saying that when it rains at sea, even in it, it feels like the world is turned upside down, and in my opinion, after the cultivation world is about to be turned upside down, the king will naturally calm down. ”
Lin Yinping followed Xiao Yu's example, leaned on the white jade railing, and asked, "Many people are going to die?"
Xiao Yu hummed in a low voice, and said with emotion: "Of course, many people have to die, whether it is a carefree immortal sitting high in the clouds, or an emperor and general in the world, a few must die, as for the common people, as well as our small fish and shrimp, not to mention." In the final analysis, it is because the Taoist Sect wants to compete for the world, and as Akiba Zhenren said, the taste of the world cannot be forgotten for a thousand years, so even if there is no Taoist Sect, there will be Buddhism, Demon Sect, and Sword Sect jumping out to compete for the world, it is only a matter of time. ”
Lin Yinping fell silent.
The Dao Sect's side reacted quickly, and it didn't take long for Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping to come out of Li Xiu's Dao Pavilion, and immediately a Dao Sect disciple came and invited the two distinguished guests to the Great Wilderness Pavilion in front, and Qiu Ye Zhenren had been waiting for a long time.
When Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping came to the Great Wilderness Pavilion with the guiding disciple, they found that Qiu Ye, Murong, Qiu Yue, Cangxue Master and other new and old friends were already here, and after a few people got up to salute each other, Qiu Yue smiled and said: "Half a year has passed in a hurry, how is Xiao Jushi lately?"
Xiao Yu is naturally no longer the Xiao Yu of half a year ago, and said with a smile: "Thanks to the blessing of the Zen master, Xiao is very good now." ”
Qiu Yue smiled and said: "The poor monk doesn't dare to be a poor monk, if he can let Xiao Jushi achieve the great cause of the Northwest within a year, I'm afraid it will not be enough to count the merits and blessings of the poor monk in the next life." ”
At this moment, Bai Liyin pushed the door in, first bowed to everyone, and then said: "Now that the Dao Conference has restarted, Qin Mumian has begun to perform on stage, defeating five side disciples in a row, at this time Qin Mumian let out words, in the realm of her peers, if anyone can beat her, she will give away the treasure on her body, and give up the position of the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, and promise each other with her body, but if she loses, she will leave something, and at this time she is already excited, and she is lining up to challenge Qin Mumian." ”
As soon as Bai Liyin's words fell, the eyes of everyone in the pavilion had all fallen on Xiao Yu's body, Xiao Yu coughed lightly, and said with a wry smile: "What do you all see me doing?"
Qiu Yue still smiled as usual, and said: "The poor monk thinks that his realm is low, if he is against Qin Mumian, he only has a thirty percent chance of winning. ”
Murong said lightly: "During this period of time, I have been a little slack in my cultivation, and I only have a forty percent chance of winning against Qin Mumian, besides, I am a woman, but Qin Mumian's promise cannot be counted." ”
Although Autumn Leaves didn't speak, the meaning has been expressed very clearly, I'm a celestial, why do I need to make a move?
As for Bai Liyin and Master Cangxue, they are already considered to be among the old generations.
Lin Yinping bit his lip, and after a little hesitation, he still said: "It seems that this Qin girl has something to say, why are you provoking others? ”
Xiao Yu smiled helplessly: "Qin Mumian's crazy woman is thinking, how do I know, and I don't plan to make a move, the so-called wood shows in the forest, the wind will destroy it; I've had enough limelight on this trip, so let's see the excitement. ”
Several people walked out of the pavilion and stood on the verandah to look at Qin Mumian's unparalleled demeanor on more than 100 squares.
Qin Mumian was second only to Murong in the evaluation of the four beauties, and now he is calling the younger generation with the power of one person, and his bearing is self-contained.
Xiao Yu only glanced away a few times before he looked away, and said to Qiu Ye: "Real person, don't you plan to suppress Qin Mumian's momentum?"
Akiba smiled lightly: "The Demon Sect Sword Sect lost its lining this time, and they should also find some face to go back, after all, it is not yet time to tear their faces." ”
Xiao Yuleng paused for a moment and asked, "Just watch her kill all sides and kill the first person of the younger generation?"
Akiba shook his head and said, "How about killing the first person of the younger generation? ”
Xiao Yu nodded and sighed, "Understood." ”
Akiba turned around and walked towards the pavilion, "Let's go if you understand, you can't leave the northwest for too long." As for your position in the Dao Sect, Master has other arrangements, so I don't want to criticize it. ”
Xiao Yu turned his head to look at the majestic Dao Hall behind him, pursed his lips, and then nodded and smiled: "It's time to go, too, I don't belong to the cultivation world, I'm a mortal." ”
Lin Yinping stood beside Xiao Yu and was silent.
After Xiao Yu took Lin Yinping to salute everyone, he turned around and left.
Murong sent the two all the way to the crystal arch bridge, Lin Yinping took off a scimitar before leaving, stuffed it into Murong's hand, and smiled at her: "I have grown up so big and have few friends, we are afraid that we will not be able to come often, if you are free, you will go to Zhongdu to see me." ”
Murong held the scimitar that had accompanied Lin Yinping for more than ten years and nodded slightly.
Xiao Yu arched his hand and smiled: "Everyone, Xiao will say goodbye here, and see you in the future." ”
Everyone returned the salute and said goodbye.
Xiao Yu waved his hand, took Lin Yinping's hand, crossed the crystal bridge, and went down the mountain leisurely.
