Chapter 245: A Little Talk Under the Moon
The next day, Xiao Cong, who had always been unable to shake the thunder and was about to get up before dawn to practice the martial arts spirit pupil, failed to wake up on time, Hongxiang woke up around Shen Shi as usual, and saw that Xiao Cong was still asleep and couldn't bear to disturb, so he carefully climbed out of the tent, walked into the valley and river, and washed well.
When I came back, I saw that Xiao Cong had already woken up and stood outside the tent, stretching his waist with his arms wide open, looking cheap, and seemed to be moaning.
Hongxiang couldn't help but shout,
"Brother!"
Xiao Cong turned his head when he heard the sound, and smiled, his eyebrows were not yet exhausted, and it seemed that he had just woken up.
Saying hello to Hongxiang, Xiao Cong also came to the valley river, three times five divided by two took off a slippery line, after jumping in the air, a fierce man plunged into the stream, the stream was banged up a huge crystal splash, the splash fell for a long time, he poked his head out of the water like a swimming fish.
He shook his hair vigorously like a hairy dog in water, and slowly stroked his hair to the back of his head along the forehead hairline with both hands, and the handsome contours of his face became more distinct, and he looked extremely happy with a look of enjoyment.
After swimming back and forth in the stream a few times in a row, carefully rubbing the dust and sand that he had brought out in the near sun desert before, Xiao Cong landed on the shore, changed into clean clothes, and returned to the tent.
In front of the square table, Hongxiang had already carefully roasted the forelimbs of the alien beast that he hadn't eaten last night, and next to the forelimbs was a bunch of assorted wild fruits with incomplete names, just looking at it made Xiao Cong, who had not tasted sweet and sour for several months, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he smiled slightly, and sighed:
"Well, it's better in the mountains. โ
Originally, Xiao Cong also wanted to go to the ancient city that had been rebelled by the conspiracy of the Dugu family before, and see how the situation was there, but after thinking about it again and again, he felt that this matter was actually not interesting in the end, he had turned the sea into water, and he was used to the battles between monks, and the battles in the mortal realm were really not much in his opinion, even if the Emperor Fuling, the lord of the Fengqi Kingdom, could really win by surprise, then there was no need to make a special trip, when the victory or defeat was scored, there would naturally be good deeds who would bring the matter to all corners of the mortal residence in the Xuanzhen Realm, and if there was that spare time to do useless work, it was better to find a place to sleep wellใ
"Alas, let's go find Xingliuyun, a few months have passed, and a lot of things must have happened in the Xuanzhen Realm, ask him, and you will know everything. โ
Along the route when they went, they returned to the ancient city where the Xingjia drama stronghold, and found a very secret dry well outside the city, Xiao Cong and Hongxiang jumped down, but met a person wearing a tight black shirt with an ink towel and only a pair of eyes in the secret passage at the bottom of the well.
Xiao Cong knew that the style of this dress belonged to the fine son of the Xing family, so he was not flustered, and quietly watched the fine man bow his hand, and said:
"Meet Xiao Sigongzi, the younger one has been waiting for Gongzi here for a long time. โ
Xiao Cong nodded, and said without shock:
"What is it that the righteous are waiting here?"
The little man replied respectfully:
"The eldest young master knows that Gongzi will definitely come here to meet him, so he sends the younger one to wait here. โ
"Oh, that means your eldest young master isn't here now. โ
Xiao Cong
Slightly surprised.
The fine child nodded heavily and said:
"The eldest young master said, please stay outside for a few days first, he will definitely go to find Childe after he gets the letter. โ
Xiao Cong bowed slightly, comprehended in his heart, and hugged his fist at the little boy and said:
"Then there is the Laborers. โ
The fine son was flattered, and bowed to Xiao Cong in return,
"Xiao Sigongzi is serious, this is a small matter. โ
Then Xiao will leave first. โ
"Congratulations to Xiao Sigongzi. โ
Before the fine son raised his buried head, Xiao Cong had already jumped out of the dry well with Hongxiang.
Originally, I thought that after a small reunion with Xingliuyun, I would go to the next dangerous place, so as to take this opportunity to let Hongxiang break into the middle of the realm at the most stable rhythm, but I never thought that this guy was not there, so I was afraid that it would be delayed again.
But then again, Xingliuyun is also for his good, at least he left a little boy of his own to feed him here, and didn't let him run around outside. Indeed, in this matter, it is much better to have Xingliuyun come to Xiao Cong than to let Xiao Cong go to Xingliuyun, in today's Xuanzhen Realm, Xingliuyun is more or less a public figure, and running around all day without fear will not attract too many people's attention, but Xiao Cong is different, in just half a year, the rumors about the arrest of the remnants of the Xiao family seem to have subsided on the surface, but the undercurrent under the surface is not necessarily much smaller.
Delay for a while, just delay for a while, just take advantage of this gap to visit the Luoxian Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect, whether it is out of kindness or grudge, after all, everyone is acquainted, and I haven't thought about it for a long time, how can I leave without saying hello, it's too inauthentic.
That night, with the help of the magic circle "another life", the two of them changed into another pair of skins, crossed the three cities and came to the stronghold where the Luoxian Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect merged, and entered over the wall, and no longer played any routines, killing all sides. It's a pity that there is not even a star picking master in this stronghold, but Hong Xiang has a good time, Xiao Cong was stunned and couldn't use his skills, probably because Xiao Cong has been hidden for a long time, and the Falling Immortal Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect Dog can't change their and relax their vigilance, or the loss of the thirteen Heaven Realm masters last time has made the two forces lose their temper, the Seven Sects and Eight Academies are not comparable to the Four Palaces and Five Towers, and the Fire Saint Palace can use two masters of the Star Picking Realm as outcasts for a fire spirit half-immortal, not to mention hand trembling, I'm afraid I won't even shake my eyelashes, but the Falling Immortal Mansion is different from the Heaven Destroying Sect, their heritage, it is never allowed to take the life or death of the master of the Star Realm as a bet to capture Xiao Cong, after all, if Xiao Cong is caught, the benefits will eventually fall on the Dugu family, so they don't want to be the big one!
Xiao Cong's destruction of the Immortal Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect overnight did not cause much turmoil in the Xuanzhen Realm, as if Xiao Cong's image had risen to an unattainable level in people's hearts, and it was really a normal thing to be able to destroy a Falling Immortal Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect's rudder.
For three days, Xiao Conghe
Hongxiang stepped on the three cities in a row, and none of the rudders of the Luoxian Mansion and the Heaven Destroying Sect were spared in the three cities, but he still didn't encounter a master, and the forces were loosely arranged, and there was no intention of waiting for the battle.
It didn't feel interesting to play like this, so Xiao Cong just stopped, he was used to the ups and downs of the whole day in the near sun desert, and when he suddenly became idle, he was a little uncomfortable.
In this way, I wandered around several ancient cities for a few days boringly, eating, drinking, and playing in the mountains and rivers, looking free and happy, but in fact, I always felt that something was missing in my heart.
In the mountains and dense forests, there is a bunch of small bonfires, on the bonfire is a game that has been roasted to golden oil, next to the bonfire is a sheepskin tent that is one and a half people high, there are two people in front of the tent, one is half lying on the trunk of the tree, one arms and legs to the knee to the knee, these two people are Xiao Cong and Hongxiang who are unwilling to return to the city after a day of wandering and stay in the wilderness.
Probably Hongxiang was still thinking about the happy days when he was in the desert near the sun, so when the two of them chatted with each other tonight, the topic involuntarily pulled to the fire spirit half-immortal.
"Brother, what were you doing that afternoon?" asked Hongxiang.
Xiao Cong raised his eyebrows lightly,
"Which day?"
"It was the day I escaped from the desert. โ
Hong Xiangyuan opened a pair of big black and white eyes, and reminded with a slightly innocent color.
Xiao Cong smiled proudly and said lightly:
"That afternoon, I went to the big cave to clean up the battlefield for the Fire Saint Palace. โ
"Looking at my brother's proud look, it seems that he has gained a lot, no wonder he slipped away so fast that day!"
Xiao Cong glanced at the interested Hongxiang indifferently, and the smile between his eyebrows did not decrease,
"That's natural, I, Xiao Cong, make a move, how can I go back empty-handed? Don't you run away quickly after taking something, stay there and wait for someone to be stolen and captured?"
Hongxiang smiled contemptuously when he heard this,
"No, as the old saying goes, thieves don't go empty!"
Xiao Cong chuckled a few times when he heard this,
"What do you know at a young age, brother, this is called a thief who is not empty, brother is called holding sheep, there is a cheap and not taking advantage, the turtle king bastard. โ
"What did my brother bring?"
Xiao Cong smiled, still holding it,
"A sword and a stone. โ
Hongxiang Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, and he said dissatisfied:
"Hmph, I hate people who procrastinate the most. โ
Xiao Cong smiled again and compromised softly:
"You don't understand it, for you, it's just a sword and a stone. โ
"If you don't say it, you know I don't understand!" Hongxiang turned his face and said angrily.
"Okay, then do you know the Dugu Nine Swords?"
Hongxiang nodded seriously, bit his lower lip lightly, and said softly:
"You know, it was the Dugu family who pulled it out of the holy mountain. โ
Xiao Cong looked at Hongxiang's appearance of settling down all of a sudden, and said with a smile:
"What, scared?"
Hongxiang puffed up his chest,
"I'm not afraid!"
Xiao Cong twisted his body, changed to a more comfortable posture again, and said comfortably:
"Now that you know the Dugu Nine Swords,
I should know its status in the Dugu family, and now I tell you, the Divine Jealousy Sword, one of the Dugu Nine Swords, is now in my hand!"
"Ahh
Hongxiang looked at Xiao Cong incredulously, and his small mouth turned into an O-shape.
"Brother...... How did you do it, that Dugu Jiujian seems to be the root of the Dugu family, isn't my brother afraid of being hunted down and killed?"
Xiao Cong smiled contemptuously,
"How would they know I did it!"
"According to the status of Dugu Nine Swords in the Dugu family, there must be a unique refining mark of the Dugu family on it. โ
Hongxiang said worriedly.
Xiao Cong looked up at the starry sky and said quietly:
"Don't worry, it's in my Xiao Cong's pocket, don't think about taking it back easily!"
Hongxiang opened his mouth, wanted to speak and stopped, and after a moment, he said:
"What about the stones? What are the stones?"
Xiao Cong turned his face back and smacked his lips,
"I don't know where that stone came from, I only know that it was born in the place where the fire spirit half-immortal was sealed, and the old guy sent by the Dugu family used the Divine Sword to break the seal of the fire spirit half-immortal but failed to hurt it in the slightest, so from this point of view, this thing is not simple. โ
Hongxiang tilted his head and thought for a while, and said:
"Didn't my brother say it was a stone? โ
Xiao Cong smiled,
"It's a lotus-like stone, and the center of the flower is the seal of the fire spirit half-immortal, maybe my statement is not right, you can take it as an image metaphor. โ
Hongxiang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head again and asked:
"What is the origin of the fire spirit half-immortal, my brother should know. โ
Xiao Cong flattened his mouth and sighed softly,
"I really can't say what I know, but I guess a little. โ
"Let's hear it. โ
Xiao Cong moved his gaze upward, looked at the night sky again, and muttered:
"That's probably the Fire Saint Palace's plan is still the same, the fire spirit has become a fire spirit half-immortal, and it is only one step away from the true immortal, but it is enough, but whether it is the Fire Saint Palace people who have fulfilled the fire spirit or the fire spirit who has fulfilled the Fire Saint Palace people, who can say clearly? Whether it is a blessing or a curse, let's see what happens in the future. โ
"Brother, I didn't understand what you were talking about. โ
When Xiao Cong heard this, he couldn't help laughing,
"I said, it may be that a certain Fire Saint Palace person who is about to enter the fairy realm has fused himself with the spirit of fire, but it is difficult to say whether this matter is a blessing or a curse. โ
"Why?"
"Different fires and spirits, each has its own cause and effect, and under the entanglement of cause and effect, who can still explain things clearly. โ
Hongxiang nodded as if he didn't understand, and said thoughtfully:
"After all, the spirit of fire is a derivative of heaven and earth, it belongs to heaven and earth, and the people of the Fire Saint Palace forcibly took it for themselves, which is already a great disrespect, and now they are delusional to be able to merge with it, I am afraid that they want to play with fire**, no wonder I always feel strange when I look at the fire spirit half-immortal that day. โ
Xiao Cong smiled when he heard this, and pretended to be profound:
"Although you are right, but in the end you are only half right, how do you know that it is not the Fire Spirit who found the Fire Sacred Palace people to fuse with it?
Come, I have always worshiped the spirit of fire as a god, although it is not impossible to monopolize it, but if you think about it carefully, it is more likely that the latter situation is more likely. โ
Hongxiang nodded slowly,
"Or is my brother right, then since the Fire Saint Palace has such a miraculous act, have the other four palaces also made some moves?"
Xiao Cong looked at Hongxiang with deep meaning, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up in an extraordinarily good-looking arc,
"Your kid is on the point again this time, the five towers are in love with each other, and the end is an iron plate, at this time, there is a fire spirit half-immortal in the Fire Saint Palace, if you want to say that the other four palaces have no action, I'm afraid you don't even believe in ghosts, come, keep thinking, see what else you kid can think of?"
Hongxiang rolled his eyes and smiled contemptuously,
"My brother is underestimating me too much, do you still need to think about this? There is a fire spirit half-immortal in the Fire Saint Palace, and the other four palaces are afraid that there will also be water spirit half-immortals, earth spirit half-immortals, golden spirit half-immortals, and earth spirit half-immortals in the future, and some big forces will definitely not sit idly by, so the Fire Saint Palace will definitely suppress the wind, and it will be easy not to find trouble with my brother!"
Xiao Cong shook his head slowly, and said slowly:
"Not true. โ
Hongxiang frowned,
"What's that?"
Xiao Cong sat up, his eyes were slightly confused, and said:
"There is a fire spirit half-immortal in the Fire Saint Palace, and the Dugu family has lost the Divine Jealousy Sword, both families may not want this matter to be exposed, but paper can't contain the fire after all, I'm afraid that before the wind starts, Dugu Jian will ask the Fire Saint Palace Xingshi for the guilt, in order to calm the matter, the Fire Saint Palace may also want to return the Divine Jealousy Sword to the Dugu family, but the Divine Jealousy Sword is now in my hands, and the Fire Saint Palace is speechless, I don't know if it will be from the Dugu ......family."
"The Fire God Palace has a fire spirit half-immortal, and you are still afraid that he is alone?"
Xiao Cong sneered a few times,
"Dugu Jiujian is just losing a divine sword now, the other eight swords are still there, not to mention that the Fire Saint Palace is just a half-immortal, even if it is a true immortal, the Dugu family may not be afraid of him!"
"Why?"
"The Divine Jealousy Sword is only the weakest of the Dugu Nine Swords, and the other eight swords are much stronger than him if they take out any of them, in case the Dugu family dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and finds a foreigner with superb cultivation, he can destroy the entire Fire Saint Palace with a single immortal hatred! The Fire Saint Palace and the Dugu family are at odds, and they will definitely not be able to eat good fruits. โ
"But what does this have to do with us, is my brother unbearable to see the Fire Sacred Palace suffering?" Hongxiang asked, scratching his head.
Xiao Cong shook his head,
"I dare to take their fire lotus, I don't want to have a good relationship with them, although this matter has nothing to do with us, but it has to do with Xingliuyun, if the Xuanzhen royal family takes advantage of this opportunity to extend an olive branch to the Fire Saint Palace, it must be a stretch!"
Hongxiang was still scratching his head, frowning and said:
"Brother, I still don't understand, aren't you not involved in the affairs of the Xuanzhen Royal and Dugu family?"
Xiao Cong snorted,
"Xuanzhen Royal is Xuanzhen Royal, and Xingliuyun is Xingliuyun!"
"But even if the Xuanzhen Royal can really bring the Fire Saint Palace under his command, what can the Dugu Nine Swords be so powerful, the Xuanzhen Royal is afraid that it will be
It's hard to take a hit. โ
Xiao Cong smiled coldly,
"Not to mention whether the Dugu family can find someone who is willing to deliver the Dugu Nine Swords with confidence, just say that the Xuanzhen Royal, a family that has ruled the Xuanzhen Mortal Realm for tens of millions of years, how can it be pulled out casually, the water in it is too deep, you and I want to find out, I'm afraid it will take a few days. โ
"Now ......"
"Now our strength is still too small, try not to offend anywhere, let them be consumed, let's cultivate ours. โ
"But my brother still took someone else's jealous sword. โ
Xiao Cong's little face darkened, and he said shamelessly:
"I'm here for the Nebula!"
Hongxiang: "......"
