Chapter 119: It's sunny outside the window
Qiu Fang settled down, and looked at it, the rocks under his feet were paved on the ground, as if the loud bang just now had passed, and the courtyard was blown up to the ground with stone chips, and the sky burst out, and after a blink of an eye, it fell into this ruined field.
Qiu Fanghu suspiciously found a place to stay, and took two steps forward, although the reality was very clear, he still couldn't believe his eyes, after all, just now, he had slumped on the soft wooden couch, and the bedding just dried yesterday still retained a trace of the smell of sunshine, which made him feel more comfortable.
However, in the blink of an eye, everything that was at his fingertips was gone, except for the rocks and sawdust that told the boy that all this was indeed real, not that he was hallucinating or dreaming.
"What just now?"
The young man's mind was filled with too many things in this time of incense, and he felt that one head and two were big, and he had no other clue at the moment, so he had to ask Ah Yu in a low voice.
Ah Yu pondered for a long time before he said, "Xu was ruined by the mana impact just now."
"What kind of mana impact is so powerful?"
The scene in the world of mountains and rivers is still vivid, Qiu Fang feels that the black and white landscapes are quite peculiar, he seems to be in them, and it is like a soul wandering too empty, and it is difficult to see the whole picture of the event between the virtual and the real.
However, these are secondary, and the most troublesome thing at the moment is that after a while, Zhou Zong and the others will know that the courtyard has been demolished, and they may have to repair themselves, after all, the property of Dongji Gate is not blown by the wind.
"After I left the Shanshui World three years ago, I haven't been able to go back, I'm afraid it's because the door of the Shanshui World is reopened today, so..."
Ah Yu, who has always cherished words like gold, said such a long sentence very rarely, Qiu Fang showed a relieved expression, he has been worried about communicating with Ah Yu in his heart, the other party's card routine is always not on the line with himself, one says east, and the other wants to say west.
"So the huge mana blast blew the yard to pieces?" Qiu Fang understood what Ah Yu said, so she continued to talk about what she had not finished speaking.
Ah Yu responded approvingly, and finally was willing to reveal a little more about the landscape world that raised him: "The previous landscape world was full of mana, and it was not black and white, but I saw it today, but it has changed a lot."
Qiu Fang recalled in his mind the scene he saw in the world of mountains and rivers, although there were white clouds but no blue sky, although the mountains and mountains were endless, but they were black and gray, and a kind of indescribable weirdness floated to the young man's heart.
Ah Yu seemed to guess what Qiu Fang was thinking, and explained in a low voice, "I don't know why I'm here."
Seeing that the other party couldn't tell the reason for the matter, Qiu Fang had to change his head even if he was full of doubts: "You really have a lot of secrets."
Ah Yu was obviously stunned, and unexpectedly agreed, "Even I don't know."
"Why don't you know anything?" When Qiu Fang spoke, he was a little annoyed, which is absolutely invisible in this ordinary way, and it seems that he was really anxious by Ah Yu.
"I don't know."
As soon as Ah Yu said this, Qiu Fang really felt that it was too difficult to talk to her, so he reluctantly turned his head away, Cuizhu made a sound because of the wind, like Mingyu, it seemed that he still had to go to Zhou Zong once.
To Zhou Zong's ears, the story told by Qiu Fang was really ups and downs.
"Uncle Master? Do you know what the world of mountains and rivers is?" Qiu Fang stared at Zhou Zong, and Zhou Zong was pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, the incense burner on the incense table had been withdrawn for some time, only a unicorn incense burner was still at the foot of the floor screen, the incense burner was spitting light smoke, and the room was filled with the smell of sandalwood.
Zhou Zong did not rush to answer, but pointed to the young man's abdomen, indicating that Ah Yu was still here.
Qiu Fang was slightly stunned, Ah Yu was a trouble in his body, just talking about chatting with people, it was inevitable that he would be treated with ears on the wall.
"I don't listen." Ah Yu's voice sounded in the room, still as cold and indifferent.
Zhou Zong smiled when he heard this, but said with great interest, "Little girl, if you are fortunate to meet again, would you mind chatting with the old man?"
Ah Yu seemed to be a little resistant, but he groaned for a moment
Later, he unexpectedly did not turn Zhou Zong away, and replied impatiently, "You say."
"Why are you half-human, half-demon?" As soon as Zhou Zong came up, he was close to the point, but Qiu Fang was a little shocked when he heard it, with his understanding of Ah Yu in the past few days, the other party would definitely not explain his details so easily.
To Qiu Fang's surprise, but what was reasonable was that Ah Yu did not tell the truth, nor did he refuse, but said the three words that Qiu Fang didn't want to hear from her mouth: "I don't know."
Qiu Fang put on a helpless expression at Zhou Zong, as if to say, "Look, she's like this."
Zhou Zong didn't care, but smiled, his smile was gentle and hearty.
"Will you still take Akifang's life in the future?" A gleam flashed in Zhou Zong's eyes, and he went straight into the sword again.
"Yes." Ah Yu's answer was also very short, in line with her usual style.
Zhou Zong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "He is now your life-saving benefactor, and the revenge of the grace general is not above board."
"Don't kill him for ten years." Ah Yu always has a very stiff feeling when he speaks, and there is never any joy in his cold voice.
"Can you change your life in ten years?" Zhou Zong continued to ask.
"I promised someone that if he came down the mountain, I would kill him."
"People in the Imperial City?" Zhou Zong replied quickly, and as soon as Ah Yu's voice fell, Zhou Zong's words blurted out.
Unexpectedly, Ah Yu was not fooled, but was stunned for a moment, and said hatefully, "What does it have to do with you?"
"If you want to kill my disciples, it naturally has something to do with me." As Zhou Zong spoke, he walked to the front of the floor-to-ceiling screen, and the tiger weaving on the screen descended the mountain so vividly that even if he was tired of seeing it, he couldn't help but caress it from above with his palm.
"No matter, in ten years, whoever stops will die." Ah Yu said coldly, his tone was full of firmness, and he could hear that Qiu Fang was a little unpleasant, although the transaction was so, but the other party said it so bluntly, obviously he didn't care about the friendship of saving his life, which made the young man a little displeased.
"With your skills, after ten years, I'm afraid that few people in this world will be able to stop you, and I'm afraid that my stupid nephew is really going to fall." Zhou Zong said, and then shook his head and sighed.
Seeing this, Qiu Fang's heart trembled even more, is the head of the family uncle going to let Ah Yu chase and kill him?
"It's just that he saved your life in the end, ten years, it's too short." Zhou Zong muttered, his voice even lower.
"That's what he promised." Ah Yu argued with reason.
"Since you insist on doing this, you must know the identity of Qiu Fang." Zhou Zong was not in a hurry, and said in a eloquent tone.
In exchange for this sentence, it was Ah Yu's long silence, Qiu Fang glanced at Zhou Zong, after a few days of contact, he knew very well that Ah Yu faced the question he didn't want to answer, there were only two answers, one was to refuse bluntly, and the other was to be silent.
Zhou Zong smiled heartily and continued: "There are not many people who know the identity of Qiu Fang, all of them are in the Imperial City, I think behind the girl, not only related to the Imperial City, but even related to the palace, I don't know if the old man is wrong?"
"Wrong." Ah Yu replied categorically.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Zong smiled again.
"Everywhere is wrong." Ah Yu threw off a sentence angrily, but Qiu Fang felt that his blood and qi were surging, thinking that Ah Yu's mood fluctuated, which caused the abnormality in his body.
"Hahaha." Zhou Zong laughed a few more words, and moved to the window, on the bookcase behind him, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were neatly displayed, and in the middle was a piece of uncarved purple.
"I heard that a few days ago, someone wanted to go to the Mo Sect to save the girl, and it was a powerful golden-faced black-clothed man." Zhou Zong said slowly, and after that, he paused again, "I don't know why he didn't reappear when the girl got out of trouble?"
Ah Yu was silent for a moment, and asked vigilantly, "Do you know him?"
Intuition told Ah Yu that although Zhou Zong's Taoism was not much higher than his own, his words were extremely dangerous, and if he was not careful, he would fall for him.
She had to think a little more about the reason, so she guessed whether the other party knew each other.
"Why did the girl say that?"
"He... I know a lot of people."
"It seems that he is also a master in the Imperial City, the Hellish Exquisite Tower, you can suppress the evil demons when you enter, and you can release your nature when you retreat, I think, since he helps you, he won't suppress it, right?"
Zhou Zong's face was calm and natural, and he analyzed it methodically with the limited information in Ah Yu's mouth.
"The Hell Pagoda has unleashed my demonic powers, otherwise, he and I wouldn't have been able to escape."
Qiu Fang knew that what Ah Yu said was himself, but although he had heard of this Hellish Exquisite Tower, he had no clue about the identity of the golden-faced black-clothed man, but since Zhou Zong was sure that he was a person in the imperial city, it was extremely normal that he didn't know him, after all, after the Eighth Prince was destroyed sixteen years ago, he never set foot in the imperial city again.
"Thank you, little girl, for telling me about these things, I want to kill this stinky boy in ten years, and the old man won't stop me." Zhou Zong laughed loudly, his eyes full of harvest.
Ah Yu snorted coldly and stopped answering, she knew that if she said a few more words, the old fox standing by the window would definitely know more things, and she reluctantly answered him a few words, which could be regarded as a response to Qiu Fang's life-saving grace, and from now on the transaction would be just a transaction.
"She's a killer sent by the palace." Zhou Zong's voice sounded in Qiu Fang's mind, and the young man knew that this was a secret method of sound transmission, and only he could hear the people present.
"Uncle Shi, the disciples don't know why they have to kill themselves." Qiu Fang also replied with the secret method of sound transmission.
"Hmph." Zhou Zong snorted coldly, and then said, "There are many people who want you to die, Renjun, Empress Yuan, and only on the bright side, and secretly, people who don't want the general to be big, people who have a dislike for the Eighth Prince, and people who want to sow discord are all possible, and it is impossible to prevent it."
"In that case, why hasn't Uncle Master stopped them?" Qiu Fang muttered a little resentfully, as if he was a little haunted by the last words that Zhou Zong and Ah Yu said, he didn't feel that Zhou Zong was unwilling to help him, but that there was a feeling of abandonment in his heart.
Zhou Zong heard this, but laughed again, his eyes were much softer than when he talked to Ah Yu just now.
"Silly boy, just stabilize her first, and if necessary, strike first."
When Qiu Fang heard this, he frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little noncommittal about Zhou Zong's strategy.
Zhou Zong saw his appearance, and also knew his temperament, thinking that he had always been unwilling to do things that took advantage of people's danger, so he diverted the topic and said: "The landscape world is a bit strange, Lao Qi will go to find out about the Xuanxiao Nine Thunder Pupils later, and I will tell him in a while, let him pay more attention when he walks in the world."
Hearing this, Qiu Fang nodded seriously, in this world, there are always too many things that he doesn't know and difficult to understand, and it is difficult for him to detect the details even if he picks his head.
"What about the yard..."
Seeing Zhou Zong mention the courtyard, Qiu Fang lowered his head in amazement.
Zhou Zong muttered and said, "Maybe this East Pole Gate will be yours in the future, so why care about a courtyard."
With that, he looked up at the blue weather.
At this time, the fog has receded, and the sky is clear.
