Chapter 13: Birthday Greetings
Qingyun Mountain Tongtian Peak Yuqing Palace
In the Yuqing Palace, Xiao Yicai stood in the center, and there was a man standing in front of him, a little dusty, it was Li Xun of the Incense Valley!
Xiao Yicai bowed slightly and asked, "I don't know why Senior Brother Li came this time?" ”
Li Xun returned a salute and said: "The birthday banquet of the family teacher is imminent, so I specially ordered me to invite Master Xiao to drink a glass of water and wine, and I hope that Master Xiao will reward a few thin noodles and not shirk!" His tone was arrogant and his expression was domineering. It made the surrounding Qingyunmen disciples angry.
After all, Xiao Yicai is the proud disciple of Daoxuan Zhenren, and he is the head of the first decent Qingyunmen today, his cultivation is naturally quite deep, and he is not angry at the moment, he is still smiling, and said: "The Lord of Yungu is warmly invited, how can I refuse, it's just that I have something important to do recently, and I can't get out, so I can only send other people to celebrate the birthday of the Lord of Yungu, and I hope that the Lord of Yungu will not be surprised!" “
Li Xun secretly exclaimed in his heart: The master is really like a god! Then he bowed down and said, "Then I will leave first, and I will go to Tianyin Temple to invite a few monks!" As soon as he said that, the person had already flown out of the Qingyuan Yuqing Palace, and his arrogant attitude made the somewhat grumpy Qingyunmen disciples snort heavily, and scolded him in his heart!
After a little muttering, he waved his hand slightly, and summoned a few Taoist boys, Dao; "Go and call Senior Brother Qi, Senior Brother Song, Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Sister Lu, as well as Senior Brother Zeng, and say that I have something important to discuss with them!"
Dao Tong nodded in response, walked out of the temple gate, and after a little trick, the Imperial Immortal Sword broke through the air and flew towards the various peaks!
Xiao Yicai paced and thought in the hall, his expression was slightly solemn, and his eyebrows faintly revealed a little worry.
After a while, all five of them arrived, and they also greeted Xiao Yicai one after another.
Xiao Yicai said solemnly: "Everyone, Yun Yilan of the Incense Valley invited us and the people of Tianyin Temple to attend his birthday banquet, I plan to let a few of you go, I don't know what you think about this matter?" ”
There was a moment of silence. Qi Hao took the lead and said: "Senior brother in charge, you should know Yun Yilan's personality very well!" ”
Xiao Yicai nodded and said, "Master, his old man also told him to guard against Yun Yilan before his death, this person is extremely ambitious, and he is by no means a person who can be satisfied if he is in charge of Southern Xinjiang." Now that he is inviting us to go to the Incense Valley with Tianyin Temple at this time, I dare not determine what he wants! ”
Zeng Shushu: "Yun Yilan's invitation this time must have no intentions, we need to deal with it seriously!" ”
Song Daren, who has never been good at talking, also analyzed: "When the beast demon catastrophe occurred back then, in order to protect the Burning Incense Valley, he directly led the attack center of the beast demon to my Qingyun Mountain, which made my disciples suffer heavy losses, but his Burning Incense Valley was fine.!" ”
Qi Hao said: "That Yun Yilan is extremely insidious, I don't know what tricks he will play to deal with us?" “
Lu Xueqi said coldly: "No matter what, let's be cautious!" “
Zhang Xiaofan continued; "Whatever his purpose is this time, we have to be careful."
After Xiao Yicai listened to the words of a few people, he bowed his head and said: "You must be careful when you go forward this time, don't encounter accidents, if something really happens, you must not be able to defeat it, and then discuss the plan when you come back!" "Of course, everyone can bring who they want to bring, but you have to be careful not to let anything happen!"
Everyone nodded in response: "I know the master!" ”
After everyone had everything ready, they went to the Valley of Incense, and for a few days, they set out early in the morning, and only found an inn to stay at sunset. On this day, I finally arrived at the boundary of southern Xinjiang. Seeing that it was getting late, he found an inn to stay in as usual. After eating, they went back to their rooms to rest, but Zeng Shushu came to Zhang Xiaofan's room, saying that he was talking to Zhang Xiaofan, but in fact, he came to see Xiao Ash and relieve his greed. I didn't know that Zhang Xiaofan's room was only Xiao Ash, but Zhang Xiaofan didn't know where he went. However, Zeng Shushu was very happy, and when he saw that Xiao Ash was holding his wine bag and drinking happily, he suddenly thought that this was a good way to get close to Xiao Ash, and he smiled for a while, and he didn't care where Zhang Xiaofan went......
At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi came to the garden behind the inn. In the garden, when the peach blossoms were blooming, the two looked at each other, feeling the rare sweetness and tranquility that belonged to the two of them on the way. "Xueqi." In the end, Zhang Xiaofan made up his mind and broke this comfortable atmosphere.
"Huh?" Lu Xueqi looked at Zhang Xiaofan, on his cheeks, which did not see a trace of wind and frost in the world, a pair of eyes like the most beautiful stars in the sky shot out as tenderness as water, making people feel that this gaze could melt anything in the world.
"We have now entered the southern frontier, and at this rate, we will be able to reach the Incense Valley at noon tomorrow. I think, I won't go into the valley with you, although I have returned to Qingyun, but after all, I have had a festival with the people of the Incense Valley before, and this time I go with you, I am afraid that the people of the Incense Valley will ......."
"Well, I understand, Xiaofan." Lu Xueqi's tone remained unchanged at all, and her expression was still gentle and lovely.
A little anxiety and uneasiness flashed in Lu Xueqi's eyes, but it still revealed the uneasiness in her heart. Of course, all this fell into Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, he stretched out his hands, hugged Yiren's slender waist tightly in his arms, and said, "Don't worry, although I won't go into the valley with you, I will protect you in the dark." ”
Lu Xueqi responded softly, raised her head and looked at Zhang Xiaofan, and in this back garden, the two stared at each other quietly, and there was nothing else in their eyes except each other.
Zhang Xiaofan looked at Yiren's eyes deeply with such infatuation, his eyes were full of tenderness, and the hand holding Yiren's slender waist tightened a little, and Yiren's bright eyes also looked back at him stupidly, his face was slightly red, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Then Zhang Xiaofan slowly pressed his lips on her cherry lips, and was reluctant to part anymore.
The two people in the garden kissed like this, as if they had forgotten everything around them, and that they were about to face another challenge that could be life and death. The breeze blows, and a peach blossom rain falls gently, as if it is integrated with the people in it: the twilight spring is late, and the flowers know before the hundred flowers. The peach tree is planted year after year, and it blooms when the intestine is broken......
That night, after Zhang Xiaofan discussed with Song Daren and others, he decided to act with Song Daren and them the next day. Qi Hao and Song Daren went directly into the valley to meet Yun Yilan; And Zhang Xiaofan secretly infiltrated the valley to investigate secretly. After Song Daren and the others finished meeting and left under the pretext, they met with them at an agreed place outside the Incense Valley.
Incense Valley, Mountain and River Palace
The hall is solemn and majestic, but it always makes the people in it have a depressed and dull feeling. Maybe it's almost evening, and the hall looks a little dim at this time, and the golden hall gives people a sense of mystery!
"Master, the disciple has already sent a letter to inform the people of Tianyin Temple and Qingyunmen, and sure enough, as you expected, Master, Xiao Yicai and they really didn't come, but just sent some young disciples. I guess they'll be there tomorrow! Li Xun bowed and said. After flying tens of thousands of miles in two days, he was also a little tired, and at this moment he was secretly breathing the true yuan in his body.
Above the hall, there was still the golden-clothed man who was reclining on a wide chair, he nodded slightly, and there was no joy on his face, and said: "Xun'er, I have worked hard for you, but this matter is related to my eternal achievements in the Incense Valley, and there must be no mistakes, understand?" ”
Li Xun nodded in response: "The disciple understands, he must go all out and serve the master wholeheartedly!" ”
The man in gold bowed his head and said, "Okay, you can also go down and rest, and you will have to meet those enemies of ours later!" ”
Li Xun answered, and slowly withdrew from the hall.
There was a silence in the huge hall, and I don't know what earth-shattering conspiracy is hidden behind this!
The waning moon hung high, and the cold glow sprinkled on the vast land, reflecting a little golden light, and occasionally flickering and jumping, covering the ground with a layer of bright silver frost.
At noon on the second day, several figures in the sky quickly stopped on the ground, and without making any sound, they landed directly outside the Incense Valley. One of the handsome men said in a deep voice: "Our life and death are small, but the safety of Qingyunmen and the people of the world is the most important. ”
Several others nodded in agreement, but a woman in white was silent, but her face was silent, but her heart was naturally in favor.
Everyone had long been accustomed to her indifference, and they all knew her as a person, so they didn't say anything. The man nodded, and then led the group towards the Valley of Incense!
Incense Valley Mountain and River Temple
"Master, the people from Qingyunmen are here!" Li Xun walked into the hall and bowed down and said.
The man in gold asked quietly, "How many people are coming?" ”
"The six people are all the leaders of the younger generation!" Li Xun replied, but a hint of strangeness clearly flashed in his expression.
"Is that Lu Xueqi here too?" The man in gold asked softly.
Li Xun was a little panicked, hurriedly responded, and said, "Master don't worry, the disciple knows what to do." ”
The man in gold stood up, straightened his clothes slightly, smiled slightly, and said, "Xun'er, it's good that you can think so!" ”
"Alright, go and bring them in!" The man in gold said.
Li Xun answered, and walked out of the main hall, and after a while, he took Song Daren, Lu Xueqi, Qi Hao, Wen Min, Tian Ling'er and Zeng Shushu into the main hall.
The man in gold hurriedly walked in front of the six people and said happily: "Thank you for coming to drink my Yun's birthday banquet wine!" ”
Qi Hao hurriedly said: "The Lord of Cloud Valley is the master of the righteous path today, and it is only right that we should come to celebrate!" ”
Yun Yilan smiled and said, "Qingyunmen is really full of talents!" ”
Qi Haoqian said: "Where-Yungu Lord has won the award!" ”
"Xun'er, take the six of you to the wing room to rest!" As he spoke, he turned back to Qi Hao and said, "The six of you are tired after a day's journey, I'll have someone bring you food later, so let's go and rest first!" ”
Qi Hao said: "Then it will be a lot of work for the Lord of Yungu to waste his heart!" ”
Yun Yilan waved her hand and said, "No, it shouldn't be!" ”
Li Xun looked at Lu Xueqi and said cautiously, "Senior Sister Lu, are you okay?" ”
Lu Xueqi completely ignored Li Xun, didn't even turn his head away, his expression was indifferent, his face was frosty, and he was cold and glamorous!
Li Xun shook his head and sighed, forced a smile at Qi Hao, and said, "Come with me!" With that, the person walked out, regardless of whether Qi Hao and the others followed.
After Li Xun led Qi Hao and the others to leave, a disciple of the Incense Valley walked in and said, "Lord Yugu, the Puhong Divine Monk of Tianyin Temple has come to worship the valley!" ”
Hearing that Venerable Pu Hong had come in person, Yun Yilan's face remained unchanged, but she looked happy. "Oh? Hurry up and please. As he spoke, he greeted himself out, and several young disciples of the Incense Valley followed Yun Yilan out together.
"Venerable Puhong came in person, it's really a great joy that I haven't had in this Incense Valley for a long time, haha." "How dare the old man let the Lord of Cloud Valley greet him personally? Ashamed, ashamed. Yun Yilan continued: "Where is the master, since the death of Senior Brother Daoxuan, the master is the only remaining Taishan Beidou in my righteous path, this time the master came, and I feel a lot more at ease." Master Puhong clasped his hands together and said, "Lord Gu is serious. Since ancient times, it is a strong guest who does not oppress the lord, and the old man was invited by the valley lord this time to come to celebrate his birthday. ”
"The master has worked hard all the way, come here, take the master to the wing room to rest." Yun Yilan said to the disciples beside her.
"There is the Lord of Laoyun Valley" "Where, where, master, please." ”
After speaking, Venerable Puhong followed the disciples of the Incense Valley back to the room.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan, who was dressed in Qingyun costume outside the Incense Valley, was standing on a mountain peak and watching quietly. Ash was sitting on his shoulder, holding a half-gnawed wild fruit in his hand, "Squeak, squeak, squeak...... screamed.
