Volume 4: Test Feather Three Hundred and One: Yan Xuan's Dream
Regarding the rumors in the sect, Qian Chao didn't take it to heart.
It was all done that day, and so many people saw it, so naturally the news would circulate, and then it was normal to be talked about.
After Qian Chao returned to his residence from Li Jian's purple bamboo forest, it was noon, but because he was tired, he first rested for a while, and when he woke up, it was already midnight.
After dawn, according to what he said yesterday, Qian Chao went to Li Jian again, and at noon, several partners gathered there, Yan Xuan and Tang Ping came together again, first changed the medicine for Li Jian, and then enjoyed a good meal of various delicacies brought by Lu Pingchuan, and then returned after talking about it.
When Tang Ping left, he didn't forget to ask about the mirror, but Qian Chao only said that he was working hard.
That mirror, what Tang Ping said was really good, it was very subtle, Qian Chao had never seen it before, even if he had obtained several refining things from the ruins, but it was too far behind compared to the complexity of this mirror, and this time it attracted Qian Chao's mind to it.
However, in the next few days, Qian Chao was disturbed a lot.
The reason is related to those rumors.
Who would have believed that a low-level junior disciple of Qi refining within the Nine Xuans would be able to make a great contribution to the sect!
But if you don't believe it, these more and more rumors have been described more and more in detail, and how Qian Chao showed his might and fought the monster that was more than 100 feet tall was as thrilling as a script, and most of the people who heard it were skeptical, especially the people in the Chengqi Hall.
In Chengqitang, Qian Chao knows a lot of people, many of whom feel that they have a little friendship with Qian Chao, and they are quite curious about the rumors, but these days there is always no Qian Chao to refine the weapon, so he can't ask face to face, whether the things said in those rumors are true or false, driven by curiosity, some people began to visit.
It is also from the mouths of these people that Qian Chao knows how exaggerated the rumors in the sect are, what he fought against a terrifying monster more than 100 zhang high, and even heard that Qian Chao's forehead was sweating, Qian Chao didn't want to admit it, after all, his cultivation was there, and the rumors were so exaggerated, if he recognized it or told the truth at the time, maybe it would bring him some trouble, so he could only say some ambiguous words to prevaricate the past.
But after a wave of people visited, there were more people who continued to come to the door, saying the same thing, which made Qian Chao tireless, and after finally sending away the last few people who came to the door, he found that the sky was getting dark, and most of the day was wasted on useless words with these people, which made Qian Chao very heartbroken, you know, Tang Ping's mirror He only vaguely had a clue, and was about to study deeply, he was disturbed by these boring people.
So, early in the morning of the next day, before those people came to entangle again, he went to Li Jian's purple bamboo forest.
"Brother Qian, ...... are you?"
Li Jian was a little curious about the arrival of Qian Chao, and when he saw that he was a little embarrassed, he opened his mouth to ask.
"Alas, don't mention it, there are always boring guys coming to me these days to inquire about this and that, so that I don't have half a point of leisure, so I just come to Brother Li to hide, I don't want to be entangled by those people anymore."
In the past few days, Yan Xuan has come here every day to treat Li Jian, and he also told Li Jian about the rumors in the sect, so of course Li Jian knew what Qian Chao was complaining about, and couldn't help but laugh for a while, and then said:
"No problem, I'm quiet here, just stay here."
In this way, Qian Chao stayed with Li Jian, and Li Jian once again saw Qian Chao's concentration.
Although Li Jian's injuries were serious, they had improved a lot after Yan Xuan's careful treatment for a few days. Speaking of Yan Xuan's net worth, it is at least among the top few Qi refining disciples in Qixia Mountain, regardless of the spirit stones or anything, in terms of spirit grass alone, the various spirit grasses in Yan Xuan's storage bag are not only numerous, but also of good quality, if she is willing to put out all the spirit grass in the storage bag, it is estimated that the entire Qi refining disciples of Qixia Mountain will be blushing, just because there are enough good spirit grasses, the medicines that Yan Xuan used to treat Li Jian are all prepared with those spirit grasses with good quality, The medicinal power is naturally good, and after a few days, Li Jian's injuries have been slightly healed.
But in the end, there is an injury, Li Jian can't practice swordsmanship at present, and can only meditate obediently on the edge of the bamboo forest, Li Jian remembers that before he closed his eyes and fell into a steady, the Qian brother stared at a mirror on the stone table, his eyes flashed blue for a while, and then he began to write and draw on a piece of paper.
When he opened his eyes from the tranquility, he saw that it was already noon, a morning of practice, Li Jian felt that he had gained something, and when he was happy, he saw Brother Qian sitting at the stone table, he was still sitting there in that posture, holding the small mirror in one hand, and holding the pen in the other hand and writing on the paper non-stop, as if it had never moved, the only difference was that the paper on the stone table was divided into several piles, pressed with different things, Li Jian paced over, I saw that the paper was full of strange runes that he couldn't understand, and they were full of writing, and there were traces of Qian Chao's alteration with a pen.
How can Brother Qian draw so many things by looking at a mirror?
Li Jian shook his head, and then went to make tea.
"Eh, isn't that Brother Qian?" Yan Xuan's voice was heard in mid-air.
"Hey, boy Qian, why did you come to Brother Li?" This is Tang Ping's voice.
Qian Chao stopped the pen in his hand, looked up, and saw Yan Xuan and Tang Ping coming together, and then remembered that Sister Yan had come to treat Brother Li every day recently.
"There's no way, I can't be idle at my own residence, there are always people who come to ask questions, where do I have time to do something, and then I simply hid here from Brother Li."
"Oh, I remembered, ha, the rumors in the sect have been so wonderful recently, wow, Jiuxuan's Senior Brother Qian, haha, fighting a monster that is more than 100 zhang high and terrifying, and finally led the heavenly fire to burn it to ashes, just when the monster was awarded, Senior Brother Qian raised his glass and drank freely, so unhappy! Ha ha! ”
Qian Chao sighed when he heard this, shook his head, and said helplessly: "That's right, I also heard that the people who came to my residence also asked about the events of that night." ”
Tang Ping listened to it and asked with great interest: "Then people asked you to ask, what did you say?" ”
"What else can I say, of course I can't admit it, I just said that I happened to pass by there and did a little help, but then I really couldn't resist it, no, did I hide from Brother Li. Eh, by the way, Tang girl, the rumor also mentioned Senior Sister Tang in Shuiyun Valley, what did you say? ”
Before Tang Ping could speak, Yan Xuan, who was changing Li Jian's dressing, turned his head with a smile and said:
"Well, it's exciting......"
"Sister Yan, don't say it!"
Tang Ping hurriedly interrupted Yan Xuan, thinking that the part about Tang Ping in the rumors should also be very absurd and wonderful.
Li Jian heard Yan Xuan say some rumors about "Senior Sister Tang in Shuiyun Valley", and couldn't help but laugh when Tang Ping stopped Yan Xuan from talking.
Tang Ping walked to Qian Chao's side, looked at the stone table full of classified piles of papers, and saw that Qian Chao's hand was holding the "water mist mirror", she reached out and picked up a few pieces of paper and looked at it, naturally she couldn't understand it, but judging from the fact that it was full of Qian Chao's scribbling and alteration, this mirror probably stumped this kid, so she asked:
"Hey, how are you thinking about this mirror?"
"This mirror is extraordinary, and it will take a while to figure it all out."
"Well, you have to hurry up, someone has already asked me about the whereabouts of this mirror."
"Oh? So can you delay a little longer? ”
"Well, it's already dragging, I said directly to the person looking for me, that kid surnamed Nian was caught by me, I was almost injured by him in order to catch him, I handed over everyone to the sect, and the mirror was snatched by my ability, how can I still ask me? Later, someone came to me, and I deduced that I hadn't played enough with the mirror, and let me play for two more days, and it was estimated that if someone came to me again, I would have to ask my master to come forward, but if someone came to me again, it should be my seniors, and I was afraid that my master would not be able to withstand it. ”
"Is this mirror so important?"
"Well, that's right, for the Yongzhou Nian family, the value of this mirror is much more important than that kid surnamed Nian, if Shui Yungu Yue Yinglin wants to exchange something from the Nian family, it is better to use this mirror for that kid."
"Was the family so powerful that year?"
"The Nian family is a special family, once Yue Yinglin had a predecessor who was born in the Nian family, which predecessor later went to Yuhu Mountain, but that was a long time ago, that senior had already ascended to the fairyland, plus the Nian family itself is very strong, so the sect, especially the Yue Yinglin of Shuiyun Valley, has always looked at the Nian family differently, this time the son of the Nian family didn't know what was confused, and actually did something to harm the Five Spirits Sect, Finally, the elders of Yue Yinglin grabbed their pigtails, and they must have gotten some benefits from the Nian family. ”
"I see."
Hearing Tang Ping say this, even Li Jian and Yan Xuan couldn't help but glance at the small mirror in Qian Chao's hand a few more times.
After Tang Ping and Yan Xuan left, Li Jian and Qian Chao were still next to the purple bamboo forest, one meditating and practicing, and the other sitting on the stone table meditating.
When Li Jian opened his eyes again, it was already twilight, and there was already a dark shadow in his purple bamboo forest, which he couldn't really see, but a lamp was lit on the stone table, and Qian Chao was still sitting there with the light and constantly writing and drawing on the paper.
The two of them didn't eat much on this day, but they used some wild honey from the purple bamboo forest, so they didn't feel empty in their stomachs, Li Jian looked at Qian Chao's focused, and they all felt a little envious, the last time he noticed that Qian Chao was so focused was in the heaven and earth cage outside the sect, Qian Chao sat there for almost a whole afternoon, and Li Jian was very envious at that time.
Li Jian felt that he could only be so focused when he was practicing swordsmanship, and he couldn't ...... Another time, that time with the woman named Yunxi, after a period of time, he also became very focused, there was nothing between heaven and earth except for the two of them and the swords in their respective hands, in that kind of preoccupied situation, he only felt that he had to be in his heart, but time had already flown outside his body.
At night, Li Jian said to Qian Chao, who was still sitting at the stone table:
"Brother Qian, I still have a bamboo couch in this bamboo house, if you are tired, you can rest there."
"Okay."
In this way, Qian Chao lived in Li Jian's purple bamboo forest for a few days.
Until one night, Qian Chao was still sitting at the stone table in a daze at the dense runes on a piece of paper, but he suddenly heard Li Jian say:
"Senpai!"
When Qian Chao raised his eyes, he saw a stunning woman in a moon-white dress falling from the sky, and Li Jian had already saluted respectfully.
It is the Cold Moon Fairy, the famous female sword cultivator of Mu Xiufeng.
I heard Tang Ping say that this cold senior intended to include Brother Li in the door wall, but because of some small troubles, he has not let Brother Li apprentice for a long time.
Li Jian had already saluted, and Qian Chao hurriedly got up and went over, saying that his seniors saluted respectfully.
Seeing that there were still others here in Li Jian, the Cold Moon Fairy couldn't help but ask curiously:
"You are?"
Qian Chao hurriedly said:
"The junior Jiuxuan disciple Qian Chao has seen the senior."
"Oh, it turns out that you are the money tide, yes, this time I heard some things about you, and in the matter of Yanshuang, both of you have made great contributions to the sect."
"The seniors praised it falsely."
At this time, Brother Li's prospective master came, and Bacheng came to teach Brother Li the means of sword cultivation, and it would be inappropriate for him to stay here any longer, so Qian Chao hurriedly put away all the words and papers piled up on the stone table, said goodbye to the Cold Moon Fairy and Li Jian, and then returned to Jiuxuan's own residence.
The Cold Moon Fairy looked at Qian Chao's back, and then said:
"This money tide is good, he is a very smart little guy, and he also has the means, by the way, does he have a teacher?"
"No, Brother Qian has no teacher yet."
"It's a pity, such a little guy, I don't know what Jiuxuan's old things are thinking, aren't such disciples still satisfied? But don't worry, this time the five of you have some reputation in the sect, and it is estimated that it will not be long before that money tide will be able to worship under a certain famous teacher. ”
"That's what the seniors said."
Li Jian knows Qian Chao's intentions, but there is no need to talk to this cold senior in detail, Brother Qian's affairs are still up to him, but it is always a good thing to have a famous teacher to guide him.
……
Just when Qian Chao rushed back to his residence, he was in Qixia Mountain, Yan Xuan's residence.
"Ahh
A warm arm stretched out to hold her, it was Tang Ping, she had stayed here with Yan Xuan since she returned from outside the sect.
"Sister Yan, are you dreaming again?"
Since Yan Xuan opened the killing ring, she can always wake up from the bloody nightmare every night, her face is pale, and her whole body is sweaty, thanks to Tang Ping has always been by her side, whenever she immediately comforts and comforts her, and explains her, slowly Yan Xuan has gotten a lot better, and she can often sleep peacefully one day in three or two days, and it is estimated that Yan Xuan will be fine after a while, but the nightmare she experienced tonight is different!
Yan Xuan in the dream seemed to be watching everything happen as a bystander, and she stood in the place where everyone fought endlessly that night, and the time seemed to go back to that night, but she saw that there was no Brother Lu by her side, only she was standing in front of Brother Qian's formation, facing the scattered cultivation that came up like a tide alone.
When he dreamed of this, Yan Xuan had already begun to doubt whether the woman who looked exactly like him was himself, although he looked the same in clothes and accessories, had the same face, and even the means used when he shot were the same, but Yan Xuan still doubted whether it was himself or not, and it looked the same, but in terms of temperament, that woman made Yan Xuan always feel very strange when he saw it!
Is this dream a reminiscence of the day's experience?
Or is your own fear playing tricks in your heart?
The reason why she had such an idea was because she saw the face of the woman who was exactly the same as herself with a hideous and fierce face, with a cruel and murderous smile on her face, and a pair of eyes full of strange and bloodthirsty and murderous brilliance, she swung out one by one, just like she was in that night, the knife was extremely fast, the fire flashed, the knife wind hunted, the Fengling fire knife cut the waists of those people and cut off their heads in the scattered cultivation, and the blood in the firelight was like an angry wave crashing on the shore, and the terrible screams were tight for a while, The bloody breath was suffocating, and when the blood light flew up, it reflected the firelight, like a ball of red beads kept falling!
And the woman was so strong that she was not moved by the bloody scene, and even the more blood flowed out, the more joy and excitement she became, and her whole body turned faster and faster, and the red dress of her body moved and fluttered out, dancing like a blooming red lotus, and even the white face was stained with a little bright red!
Is this yourself?
Was that what he was like that night?
The more Yan Xuan looked at it, the more suspicious and frightened he became, how could he be like that?
Just thinking about it, the strange and cruel Yan Xuan suddenly stopped, and then slowly turned his head to look at her, as if he had accidentally found a thief peeping in secret, between the messy black hair, the woman's cold gaze fell straight on Yan Xuan's face, after seeing the frightened look on her face, the woman suddenly raised her head and let out a burst of laughter that made her ears hurt, and the upper and lower rows of snow-white Hao teeth looked extremely white under the reflection of the firelight, and suddenly woke Yan Xuan up from his dream.
"Ah Ping, I just ...... Dreaming that you have become a cruel and murderous person, that scene is so terrifying! ”
Yan Xuan said with palpitations.
"Sister Yan, dreams are all fake, you can have such dreams, it means that you are worried about becoming such a person, and you will always be vigilant in the future, you will definitely not be that kind of person."
"But...... I'm still worried. ”
"Sister Yan, how is it possible, if you can become a cruel and murderous person, unless Qian Xiaozi becomes a person like Brother Lu first, I don't believe it."
This reassuring sentence made Yan Xuan smile, and he immediately felt a lot more relaxed.
"Okay, Sister Yan, sleep, don't think so much, people's nature has to change unless it is a big change, and what we have experienced has nothing to do with the big change at all, you just have too soft a heart, and after a while, it will be fine, rest assured."
"yes, okay."
"Sleep."
In order to reassure Yan Xuan, Tang Ping also stretched out a jade-white arm from the brocade and hugged her.
