Zhao Qing frowned, shook his head slightly at his wife, and motioned to her not to make a noise and go to see what was going on.

The night in late spring was still a little cool, and the air was filled with a fresh smell, but in Zhao Qing's senses, the air that should have been cool was a little restless, and after inhaling into the nasal cavity, it became more and more difficult for the body and mind to calm down.

After so many years in the stove room, he had never met a situation where someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night.

At this moment, he had already come to the door of the room, and after glancing back at his wife again, he mobilized the aura of his whole body, pinched out the magic trick with one hand, and the red practice technique was ready to start.

The only thing to be thankful for now is that there is no alchemy tonight, otherwise, I am afraid that I will not even have the aura to cast spells.

Crunch......

"Who?"

Zhao Qing asked out loud.

"Senior Brother Zhao! It's me, the Shen vulgar next door. The other party quickly replied, listening to the voice of a woman.

Shen Vulgar...... Shen Vulgar......

Zhao Qing carefully recalled that when he came to visit next door some time ago, there seemed to be such a woman.

Thinking of this, he let out a long breath.

Damn, this new group of colored pens is annoying!

How can anyone knock on the door in the middle of the night? This T-shaped courtyard is already far away from the center of the stove room, and it will take a long time for the senior brother from the outer door to arrive, I don't know if this will scare people to death?

Zhao Qing's face was darker than the casserole in the quiet room, and he frowned and walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard.

"What? I'll talk about that tomorrow. ”

Suddenly, he paused in his steps, felt something strange, and listened to the movement outside the door, as if there were other women?

Could it be that their whole room is here?

Sure enough, several voices were heard in the next moment.

First of all, there is a stumbling stopper, and then there is a mixed group of surprises.

"Senior brother! Didn't you hear what happened before? Miao Jian, they have already gone to invite the senior brother of the outer sect! Something happened! ”

Zhao Qing: ???

Movement? What's moving?

He pondered for a moment, dissipated the magic trick in his hand, opened the courtyard door, and turned sideways to let the women in.

"Hear what? What's wrong? He asked, frowning.

The more articulate female cultivator spoke anxiously: "There is movement on Shouyun Mountain!" At that time, we asked a lot of people, and they all heard. ”

"Even the houses are trembling, as if the ground is moving, and the roars of all kinds of beasts and the sound of running are particularly obvious."

Zhao Qing looked confused, but looking at everyone's anxious expressions, it didn't look like a fake.

Shen Shu said: "I think there are many people who have heard it, but we didn't ask one by one, Miao Jian went to the stove room to ask Senior Brother on duty, let's come to Senior Brother Zhao first and wait for him to come back." ”

"Most of the T-shaped courtyards are new disciples, and we can only come to Senior Brother Zhao to ask about the situation at the moment.

If this happens often, it will be fine, but if it is not the other way......"

Zhao Qing frowned, and waved his hand to signal the other party not to speak yet.

Then he listened to the land, and he really faintly heard the sound of banging, farther and farther away, I am afraid that it is already in the center of Shouyun Mountain, and it can be heard at such a distance, but it is conceivable that the mountain is shaking at this moment.

"Has Senior Brother ever encountered this situation before?"

Zhao Qing frowned and shook his head: "As far as I know, this has never happened. ”

Although he had just moved to the foot of Shouyun Mountain, if there was occasional movement like this on Shouyun Mountain, the old handyman who was chopping wood would not know about it.

And just talking about Shouyun Mountain, he has been going back and forth for more than ten years, and he has never encountered any large beasts, let alone be able to make such a movement...... Unless it's a demon beast, a horde of demon beasts!

Could it be that something happened in the depths of Shouyun Mountain?

The women saw that Zhao Qing was also frowning, her face was ugly, and she became even more nervous.

Shen Shi's voice was crying, obviously frightened. "Senior brother! If you know anything, tell me and wait! It's impossible not to hear that much movement just now, and your yard is the closest. ”

"If anything big happens here...... We're not going to survive. ”

Zhao Qing took a deep breath and did not make any answer.

He really didn't hear anything, when he was a child...... The bed did shake, but it was obviously not a movement made by the monster.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Don't scare yourself, maybe someone is hunting demon beasts to cause the movement." ”

"Hunting monsters?" The women were clearly skeptical.

"You stay in the courtyard for a while, and then close the courtyard door. Forget it, the east wing is empty, you go over and stay, plug the courtyard door, and wait for the senior brother of the outer door to arrive! ”

Zhao Qing was noncommittal, turned around and returned to the bedroom.

"Shuyue, pack up the things that are convenient to carry, let's go to the city for a while first."

The girl hid at the door, obviously listening to them, and at this moment she wondered: "Didn't you say that someone hunted demon beasts?" ”

Zhao Qing rolled his eyes.

"Don't lie to yourself, who will go to Shouyun Mountain to hunt demons at night? I've been chopping wood on this for years, nothing! ”

As he spoke, he took off the amulet on his body and stuck it in the placket of his wife's clothes.

Then he took the wooden box under the window, put all the remaining ten Qi Gathering Pills into it, and stuffed it into Wang Shuyue's arms and said: "Find a package to wrap it up, wrap some clothes so that no one can see it, you will hold it from now on." We'll see how it goes! ”

Wang Shuyue looked at the wooden box in her hand with a complicated expression.

It took a long time to react and wonder.

"In that case, why didn't the husband tell them?"

Zhao Qing shook his head slightly.

"It's useless, I don't want to say if I'm sure for the time being. Even telling them will only make them more nervous. What is the use of several innate realms? It's just going to get messier and messier. Someone went to inform the senior brother on duty, let's see what the senior brother has to say later. ”

After Zhao Qing finished entrusting him, he pinched the red practice technique in his hand, walked quickly to the quiet room, gathered all the remaining mundane herbs together, put them in a casserole, and burned them all.

And then came to the courtyard with a dark casserole and threw it away.

Bones.

The casserole rolled on the ground and finally hit the bluestone, shattering into multiple pieces.

"Senior Brother Zhao!?"

Shen Shu heard the movement and was shocked.

"It's okay, it's too dark, the bowl is broken."

Two quarters of an hour later, the wind howled outside, and there was a continuous sound of breaking the air, and the tiles on the walls creaked.

Three senior brothers on duty at the outer gate came quickly and landed in the courtyard.

"What's the movement!?"

One of them listened attentively, and the other took out a round magic weapon from the storage bag hanging from his waist and began to infuse it with spiritual power, as if to test something.

Wang Teng is also one of them.

He raised his hand and called, "Zhao Qing! What's going on? You elaborate. ”

Zhao Qing was silent for a moment, took Shen Shu's arm, and pushed her in front of Wang Teng.

"Senior Sister Shen, you tell Senior Brother Wang everything you know."

Wang Teng glanced at Zhao Qing suspiciously, but didn't say anything, but quietly listened to the narration of several female cultivators, confirmed each other, and then recorded it.

Subsequently, the three senior brothers on duty went to several other courtyards to check the situation. Finally, they met and began to communicate privately, and Zhao Qing saw their expressions clearly from a distance, realizing that something was really wrong.

And now, he didn't care what was going on in the mountains, it was nothing more than the movement of the ground, the tide of demon beasts, or the fight of high-ranking monks.

Zhao Qing approached and bowed: "Senior Brother Wang, Shuyue is not feeling well, can I take her down the mountain?" ”

Wang Teng turned around and wondered: "Shuyue? Who is it? ”

"Disciple's insider, you also came to drink the wedding wine." Zhao Qing smiled embarrassedly.

Wang Teng glared at Zhao Qing meaningfully, and then approached and whispered: "Xiaoqing, I understand your concerns, and the sect will protect your safety." The city isn't necessarily better than here. ”

Yes, it is not necessarily stronger in the city, but it is farther away from Shouyun Mountain.

He secretly glanced at the senior brother of the outer door who was holding the disc, and his eyebrows were about to be twisted together at this moment......

"Senior brother misunderstood, we just went down the mountain to seek medical treatment, and we won't delay chopping wood."

Wang Teng sighed slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and said nothing.

Zhao Qingyi will, and left overnight with Wang Shuyue.

For a person who works on Shouyun Mountain every day, he deeply understands what this means, and cutting wood is not necessary for the time being.

Maybe this change is nothing to the Danxia Sect, but for the nearest third-layer small handyman of Qi refining, one mistake is a catastrophe.

"Farewell!"
