Chapter 26: The Return

The sun was setting, and before I knew it, it was noon three days later.

Qiu Tianhe and others, who had been playing on the island for a few days, returned to the boat with some souvenirs found from the island, and stood at the bow of the boat with their backs to the island, so that Qingzhi, who had excellent calligraphy and painting skills, helped draw a family portrait.

The pirate flag, which was re-made by Zheyunli, was hung at the highest part of the mast, and a large bird was specially carved out of wood and placed at the front of the collision horn.

And under the canopy of trees that shade the sky and the sun, the fence courtyard is also neatly tied.

The Night Terror Hall changed into a neat black robe, and the dragon knife hung around his waist, and he packed all kinds of things in the kitchen so that he could use them when he revisited the old place in the future.

Xue Baijin also changed back into the clothes of the rivers and lakes, and after putting away the futon spread on the plank bed, he stood in the empty house, although he had only been here for a few days, but the experience was obviously like a world away.

After the night terror hall finished packing up his things, he closed the door and came to the main house, where he found Bingtuo Tuo looking at the bed in a daze, and walked behind him and called:

"Tutuo?"

Xue Baijin retracted his thoughts when he heard the voice, regained his cold expression, and turned his head slightly:

"This is the last time you will call this title in your life, and if you let me hear it again after stepping out of this door, you will understand the consequences."

Night Terror Hall had repaired the Ice Lump no less than ten times in the past three days, and she could feel that the closer she got to the time limit for leaving, the more complicated and depressed her emotions became.

Seeing that Bingtuo Tuo firmly drew a line, Night Terror Hall showed a smile and looked back at the door:

"Haven't you gone out yet, Uncle Qiu and they are drawing family photos, I guess we will have to wait before we can set off, why don't we sit together for a while?"

Xue Baijin forgot the bits and pieces of these days, and it was already difficult to climb to the sky, and he didn't want to 'break up and repair' again, and inexplicably added a memory.

But she really didn't go out at the moment, and she had to bury all her thoughts in the future and never mention it again, this may be the last time they can stay in their current relationship.

For this reason, Xue Baijin was silent for a moment, but did not refuse, sat down upright on the edge of the plank bed, and looked at the canopy outside.

Night Terror sat down beside him, and didn't say anything affectionate, just took her hand, interlocked their fingers, and looked at the scenery outside.

Xue Baijin's hand twitched slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Rustle~

The breeze stirs the canopy of the trees, making a fine, dense sound.

Night Terror Hall experienced this feeling of being a couple tacitly with each other, and after looking at the scenery for a while, he asked:

"This is a treasure place for practicing feng shui, and the speed is much faster than outside, will you return to this island in the future?"

Xue Baijin's eyes moved, and he responded calmly:

"I'll come back and see, but it's okay."

"I'm sure I'll be back from time to time, and if we meet again on the island, will you ......?"

"No, it won't."

How could Xue Baijin not hear that the Night Terror Hall was inducing her to sneak back to the island every once in a while to cheat, and said seriously:

"Going out through this gate, the things here are a thing of the past, even if you meet you privately on the island in the future, I am also your elder, do you understand?"

How could the Night Terror Hall treat Bingtuo Tuo as an elder, but Bing Tuo Tuo has always been tough, and it is meaningless to do it, so he smiled:

"I haven't gone out yet, can I still be presumptuous?"

Xue Baijin blinked, and wanted to warn the Night Terror Hall with words, but it was already the last moment, and letting this little thief be presumptuous once could be regarded as a beginning and an end, so he said in a deep voice:

"This is the last time, and when you go out, you have to stop thinking and don't have crooked thoughts again."

Night Terror nodded with a smile, and then held Bingtuo's shoulders, looked at each other, and slowly leaned over.

Xue Baijin used to be kissed suddenly, but at this time, her eyes were relatively slow, she was obviously not very comfortable, she refused to break her word, and her pouting was obviously inappropriate, so she turned her gaze elsewhere.

Multiply~

Night Terror Tang held her red lips in her mouth, passed her hand through the crook of her leg, and hugged Bingtuo to her lap and sat down, her hand caressing her back to relax.

Xue Baijin has been taught many times by the Night Terror Hall, although he hesitated, but in the end he forgot everything, opened his teeth lightly, and seriously experienced the current feeling.

But just when the Night Terror Hall wanted to push her down, Xue Baijin still came back to his senses, slightly deviated his cheeks, and sat up again:

"I'm going to go soon, I don't have time to practice, so let's stop here."

Night Terror sighed secretly, and held his cheek a few more times before standing up and helping to tidy up the crumpled placket:

"Okay, let's go."

Xue Baijin got up and walked out of the door, and when he stepped out of the door with his right foot, his figure paused suddenly, and after secretly gritting his teeth, he stepped outside the door, and his expression returned to his previous unsmiling face.

Night Terror Hall did not say a word, followed out of the door, regained a cold and extraordinary expression, raised his hand and said:

"Sect Leader Xue, please."

“……”

Xue Baijin looked at the shameless thief who was still holding her and gnawing just now, and really regained her innocent appearance, and her heart inevitably felt empty, as if she had suddenly lost something.

But the two should have been like this, and this relationship has come to an end.

No matter how complicated Xue Baijin's heart was, he could only leave it behind at this time, and slowly walked towards the outside of the island, followed by the Night Terror Hall.

Pedal Pedal Pedal ~

Walking through the grass and trees that had been engraved in his mind, Xue Baijin's face was no longer turbulent, and his heart was still inevitably complicated, and after walking into the outer woods, he looked back at the canopy and fenced courtyard that covered the sky.

With the two leaving, the Fence Garden is empty again, and it becomes an inaccessible place again, but it also leaves a person's heart here.

So much so that Xue Baijin felt that what was walking outside at this time was just a body that had lost his soul, and the farther away he was, the more he missed the bricks and tiles in the fence garden.

However, after seeing the culprit walking behind, Xue Baijin's soul was pulled back a little, and he quickly withdrew his gaze and continued to walk towards the beach.

And the night terror hall followed behind Bingtuo Tuo's ass silently, and when he saw this, he also looked back at the fence garden, and his heart was not as reluctant as Bing Tuotuo.

After all, no matter how special the memory of the island is, it is just a scenic spot on the journey of the two, as long as the Bingtuo people are in front of them, they will definitely be able to experience better scenery in the future.

For this reason, after a few glances, Night Terror Hall withdrew his gaze and asked:

"I'll go home soon, I promise to treat you as an elder in the future, and now I don't have to look for the last three pictures, don't you don't tell you, okay?"

On the day Xue Baijin was taken away from his innocence, he left a letter, saying that he would never meet with Night Terror Hall again, but he was hooked out by grilled fish, and then he was repaired for so many days.

If they regress now, won't the two of them become disconnected, and they can no longer be confused, Xue Baijin thought about it and said seriously:

"It may be risky to cross the North Liang, I will send you back to the West Sea, and then go back to Nanxiao Mountain. You don't have to look for me, in the future, during the New Year's holidays, I will often come to visit Yunli and Ning'er, our relationship is like this, don't say anything else. ”

Night Terror Hall knew that Bingtuo Tuo was beautiful and kind, and after sending him back to the West Sea, there was always something else that could leave Tuo Tuo to continue to help him, so he didn't say anything about it, just took out a pendant made of fruit cores and handed it to her:

"This is made of the core of the longevity fruit, crushed at a critical moment as a medicinal can save lives, keep it as a souvenir."

Xue Baijin glanced at it, and it was seen that the oval kernel was pierced by a red rope, and the surface was polished very smooth, and a picture was also carved out of a small courtyard under the big tree.

Xue Baijin's eyes moved, and she didn't pick up the pendant that was destined to evoke her memories:

"I don't need it, you can take it yourself."

"This is a pendant made for a girl, and I carry something like that. If you don't want it, I'll have to take it back and hand it over to the treasury......"

“?”

Xue Baijin paused slightly when he heard this, and was slightly dissatisfied, after all, if he handed over the core of the immortal fruit to the treasury, it was not given to the female emperor.

Xue Baijin was not afraid of Hua Qingzhi, but she was really incompatible with the female emperor, and what she gave her, she didn't want and couldn't be cheap for the female emperor, so she still took the pendant over at the moment:

"This is the treasure I found with you, and it should have been half of me. I won't ask you for the fruit, you can only hand over half of the leaves, and the other half must ask the meaning of the Pingtian Sect before you can dispose of it. ”

Night Terror Hall naturally nodded at this like a bird:

"Understood."

Xue Baijin put the pendant into his sleeve and quickened his pace to move forward:

"Don't get so close to me."

"Okay, I'm ...... away"

"Humph......"

……

——

On the other side, the North House.

The Beifu is already in the Beiliang Pass, and then it is in the hinterland of the Beiliang to the south, because it is not long before the battle of Shuofeng City, and the people in the snow field are turning back to various places, and there are a lot of people in the towns along the way, all of whom are inquiring about the whereabouts of the Night Terror Hall and even the North Cloud Side.

At night, Xuanji Zhenren and Fan Qinghe rode a fast horse to the foot of Huangyao Mountain and stopped at the foot of the mountain.

Huangyao Mountain is located in the southernmost side of the North Mansion, past the hill, it is a thousand miles of fertile soil of Pingchuan, can reach Yanjing directly, it is a transportation hub on the rivers and lakes, but the most famous is the apricot forest Zhai on the mountain.

Xinglin Zhai is a medical family on the rivers and lakes, just like the Southern Dynasty's 'medicine king Li', although he does not teach martial arts, but specializes in the business of the rivers and lakes, and can be regarded as a sect of the rivers and lakes.

Before Jiazi, Xinglinzhai was not a wealthy family, but since Wu Chengyuan came out of the apprentice and was named the 'Northern Liang Medical Saint', he has changed and directly become the top of the Beiliang rivers and lakes.

After all, there are many masters who can kill people on the rivers and lakes, but there are only a handful of masters who can save people.

No matter how powerful the people in the rivers and lakes are, there is only one life, and no one can guarantee whether there will be a day when their lives will be on the verge of death.

Fan Qinghe traveled in Beiliang and came to Huangyao Mountain, originally looking for news related to Tianlang Zhu, but accidentally ran into Xie Jianlan who hanged herself.

After the two came to the town at the foot of the mountain, Fan Qinghe turned over and dismounted, looked at the crowd in the town left and right, and asked:

"Witch, you must have been here before, right? What was stolen at the time? ”

Xuanji Zhenren wore a hood and led the horse forward, and responded flatly:

"What I did in Beiliang is recorded on your head, there are no rumors here, so naturally I haven't taken a penny."

Half of Fan Qinghe's name of 'thief saint' is the credit of Xuanji Zhenren, and he was displeased when he heard it:

"You don't take a penny, and you say the same thing as if you did great good deeds. After all, you are still a monk, but as a result, none of the five precepts of the Daomen are missed, so you are worthy of being a Taoist aunt......"

"Aren't you also the High Priestess of the Winter Hades. If I'm not mistaken, the high priest is the embodiment of the gods, and his words and deeds must be divine, and it turns out that you are good, and you are picked up by the night terror hall with her legs crooked, and you arrange flowers from behind......"

"Boom!"

Fan Qinghe heard the demon girl talk about the shame of finding another way, and his face suddenly turned red:

"How can you be open-mouthed? If you don't fight hard, can I suffer so much grievance? You didn't do that kind of thing yourself, can't you? ”

Xuanji Zhenren shrugged slightly: "It's done, it's quite interesting, it's a little greedy." The next time I see the Night Terror Hall, I'll draw a talisman for you and put a ...... on the front."

Fan Qinghe really couldn't listen to it, so he raised his hand and pushed the demon girl:

"Can you be serious? This is the town, what to do if the is heard? ”

Xuanji Zhenren bowed slightly: "Okay, let's just say it, let's talk about business." ”

"Who told you? If you want to stick it yourself, why should I accompany you to ...... nonsense?"

The two of them whispered so much that they quickly crossed the street and passed a liquor store.

Because most of the people in the town are coming back from the snow field, the people who pass through this place naturally talk about the situation of the day in Shuofeng City, as well as the news related to the Night Terror Hall.

Fan Qinghe passed by the door of the wine store and heard a conversation inside:

"I heard from the people over there in Yanjing that the night devil was buried in a secret stake in the twelve, and was taken out by the imperial court and put on death row, it seems that he is the apprentice of Cao Qiansui of the Southern Dynasty, and he should be being tortured at present......

"Do you think the Night Demon will run to Yanjing to save people again?"

"Probably not, the night demon has made such a big noise, if you dare to go to Yanjing to spread wild, you can still come out alive, I will put the table ...... Offer the demon of the night on the table, and worship incense every day. ”

"The last time you said you were eating the table, you haven't fulfilled ......"

……

Fan Qinghe listened to a few words, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Is there such a thing?"

When Xuanji Zhenren came out, Cao Aning had not yet been arrested, and he didn't know about it, so he thought about it:

"Sounds like it's true. Cao Aning is quite clever, why was he suddenly exposed? ”

"Alas, the secret pile is a chore, and the slightest carelessness will have to be exposed. Now what? ”

Xuanji Zhenren was silent for a moment, and said softly:

"If the Night Terror Hall receives the news, it is likely to go to Yanjing to rescue it. He has been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and his style of acting is already well known, if Bei Liang takes advantage of this, he deliberately releases the news......"

Fan Qinghe was very smart and asked:

"Do you mean to invite you into the urn and put a bait to deliberately lure the Night Terror Hall over?"

Xuanji Zhenren nodded: "Beiliang is almost cornered, and he must deal with the Night Terror Hall as soon as possible, and at this time, the actions related to the Night Terror Hall have to be thought deeper." Let's go to Yanjing to see the situation and find a way to remind the Night Terror. ”

Fan Qinghe nodded, turned on his horse, and left the town with Xuanji Zhenren, galloping towards the south......

——

The sails of the ship swelled, and they sailed through the endless blue waves towards the southeast coast, and the 'folding' flag at the top of the mast hunted in the wind.

The sea ship was converted from a merchant ship, and although it was quite large, the sailors in the past slept in large bunks, and there were not many single rooms.

Because there were still female dependents on the ship, after everyone boarded the ship, they let the four women and the little girl live in the ship, while Night Terror Hall and Qiu Tianhe and others were responsible for taking turns at the helm of the sailors.

At night, the night terror hall hung a saber at his waist, standing above the ship, looking at the endless night view of the four seas, and the fat bird squatted on the rudder, shaking his head and humming a song:

"Twitter......"

The boats below were all occupied by women, and Alain and his daughter were already asleep in one room.

Zhe Yunli was originally a separate room, but because she was worried that as soon as she fell asleep, Hua Qingzhi and the Night Terror Hall started again, and since boarding the ship, they have been staying in Qingzhi's room, playing chess to practice to relieve boredom, and sleeping together at night.

Xue Baijin lives at the stern of the boat, the doors and windows are tied, since he got on the boat yesterday, he has not been out, he has been meditating on the bed and practicing, and he looks like he will not show up before he is ready to go ashore, so as not to be embarrassed to meet the night terrors.

But as the saying goes, 'it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift', the sea is not a fairy island, and even the ordinary mountains and wilderness that are not a treasure land of feng shui cannot be compared, and it is difficult to perceive the breath of wandering between heaven and earth even in the night terror.

In the room with the doors and windows closed at this time, Xue Baijin sat with his back straight, although he looked calm and relaxed, but his heart was full of anxiety.

When he was on the island, Xue Baijin and Night Terror Hall cultivated both, and his speed could be described as walking like flying, and every day was a different realm, and the growth of his skills could be experienced.

At this time, meditating on the boat, she felt as if she was suffocating, and she tried her best to vomit, but what she got was only a little imperceptible gain, and when she entered her body, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and she disappeared without a trace.

From noon yesterday to now, Xue Baijin has been meditating for two days and one night, but the results achieved have not been as many as a few times as the night terror hall.

And the Night Terror Hall on the island is repaired from early to late, this sudden huge gap, and the reality of stagnating progress, you can imagine how much torment the martial artists suffered.

Xue Baijin was impetuous, he couldn't fully settle down at all, he knew that this was a withdrawal reaction, and he wanted to hold back and restore his former heart like stopping water.

But the combination of yin and yang is in line with the way of heaven, the feeling of flying to the clouds, as long as you experience it once, where can you quit it......

After sitting for a long time, Xue Baijin felt that the whole room was very stuffy, so he opened his eyes, got up and opened the window at the stern, blowing the sea breeze to breathe, thinking about it, he took out the pendant sandwiched in the Grand Canyon and looked at it a few times.

But just when she was stunned, there was a sudden movement above the shipbuilding:

"Uncle Qiu, you take the helm, and I move my legs and feet."

"Okay. Why don't you let the chicken take the helm? ”

"Huh?"

……

When Xue Baijin heard the familiar voice, he quickly put the pendant into his neckline, returned to the window and sat down, and continued to practice.

But after a few moments, she felt a fresh breeze enter the room, as if something had entered the room.

Call~

Xue Baijin opened his eyes and looked at the window, only to find that a night terror in a black robe had landed in front of the window.

?!

Xue Baijin was shocked, his expression was visibly panicked, and he quickly picked up the iron shovel from the side of the bed.

"Huh."

Night Terror Hall hurriedly raised his hand to signal, sat down on the stool, and picked up the kettle:

"I'm just coming in to rest, I said that I would treat you as an elder, and you elder can't even let me drink a sip of water, right?"

Xue Baijin saw that the night terror hall did not squeeze on the bed, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in a deep voice:

"It's dark at night, it's time to go to bed, you secretly run to the female elder's room, do you think it's appropriate?"

Night Terror Hall shook his head and smiled: "The sea is not suitable for practice, I saw that you didn't sleep before I came in, I'm also quite bored, why don't I play chess with you?" ”

The restlessness in Xue Baijin's heart subsided a lot after the Night Terror Hall came in, and he didn't drive the Night Terror Hall out, but frowned and said:

"You said you wanted to move your legs?"

Night Terror blinked, and looked back at the sea outside:

"Why don't I go out for a run with you?"

Xue Baijin got up and stood on the edge of the bed, tilting his head to signal:

"You come and lie down."

“?”

Night Terror Hall didn't think that Bing Tuotuo was inviting him to form a team to practice, and his expression was obviously stiff.

However, I was reluctant to put my daughter-in-law on my body, so I still got up hard, came to the bed and lay down, and looked at the cold and moving Bingtuo beside me.

Xue Baijin wanted to make the Night Terror Hall remember for a long time, don't run into her house in the future, at this time, he didn't show any mercy, knelt on the bed, pinched his calves and pushed them up, helping Night Terror Hall move his legs and blood.

"Hiss~"

Night Terror instantly felt that his right foot was not his own, his fists clenched and he gritted his teeth and took a breath, but he still forced a smile and said:

"It's so comfortable."

Xue Baijin didn't know if the Night Terror Hall was really comfortable, but when she encountered the knotted body of the Night Terror Hall again, her heart lake was a little turbulent, even her cheeks were instinctively hot, and Fang Cai's restlessness was gone.

At this time, he had already left the island, and Xue Baijin had to draw a line with the Night Terror Hall, but the elders helped the juniors relax their muscles, which was obviously within a reasonable range.

For this reason, Xue Baijin pressed very seriously this time, pressing from his feet to his head, and then pressing from the front to the back, and waited until he finished touching from top to bottom, and then put away his hand:

"Alright, let's get out."

The night terrors came out, sat up and moved their legs and feet, and did not go out of the door, but said:

"You've been in the house for two days, why don't I give you some relaxation?"

“?”

Xue Baijin saw that the tail of the night terror fox was exposed, and his eyes immediately became a little colder:

"What do you mean?"

"Don't worry, I don't have to press it with my hands, just comb my qi and blood. Uncle Qiu is still helping to take the helm above, how can I have time to mess around. ”

Xue Baijin was very scared that he had fallen into the night terror hall again, and he would start cultivating it for some reason later, but Yunli and the others were nearby, and the night terror hall should not dare to mess around, so he thought about it and asked:

"How do you relax."

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall was like a junior who respected his teacher, squatting half-squatting behind the head of the bed, and his eyes signaled:

"You lie down."

Xue Baijin felt that this opening sentence was so familiar, hesitated for a moment, and slowly lay down on the bed, put his hands on his waist, and closed his eyes:

"If you dare to speak up and don't believe it, you will know the consequences."

"Hehe......"

Night Terror wanted to melt the ice lump step by step, so that she could accept the relationship in the future, so naturally she didn't rush it, put her hands on the temples on both sides, and gently pressed and pinched to guide the flow of qi and blood.

"Whew~"

However, in an instant, Xue Baijin felt that his tense brain was stretched and relaxed, and he felt extremely comfortable, whether it was the initial anxiety or the apprehension just now.

After being rubbed for a while, I even slowly felt a little sleepy.

Night Terror didn't bother, just gently pressed and looked at the cold cheeks.

After a quarter of an hour of rubbing, Xue Baijin completely relaxed, his whole body was no longer tense, his breathing gradually calmed down, and he slowly fell asleep.

Seeing this, Night Terror gently let go of his hands, and after a few glances, he silently lowered his head and nodded on his red lips.

Kiss~

Xue Baijin didn't wake up, but his lips moved, and he did look very relaxed, and he didn't have the slightest warning about the Night Terror.

The night terror hall was full of smiles, because there were many people on the boat, it was really not easy to mess around, but he lowered his head and kissed his forehead again, and quietly got up and went out of the window.

Call~

Whoa, whoa~

Outside the window, the breeze and the gentle sound of the waves.

In the silent room, Xue Baijin lay flat on the pillow, sleeping deeply, and his lips pursed from time to time, looking like he was back on the unbearable island......
