19 Chapter XIX
It's night.
A faint fragrance spread into his nostrils, and Qin Gu opened his eyes in his sleep and looked out the window vigilantly.
The window opened at some point, and the fairy boat was very close to the moon, and the huge moon fell in the sky, extremely bright.
Qin Gu immediately turned over and sat up, his palm reaching for the Hengqiu Sword beside the bed-
He suddenly caught something moving and stared at a shadow in the room.
There was no lamp in the room, but fortunately, the cultivator's five senses were sensitive, and Qin Gu keenly noticed that the outline of the shadow moved.
The next moment, a black shadow flashed, and Qin Gu felt something soft on his cheeks.
When I looked closely, a snow-white fox, whose hair was shining in the moonlight, was tilting its head and staring at him with a pair of green eyes.
The white fox's body exuded a ghostly aura, there was no hostility, Qin Gu tentatively stretched out his hand, and it rubbed its head on it.
A chuckle came from the darkness, and Qin Gu abruptly withdrew his hand: "Who is it?" ”
He was secretly frightened, but he didn't even notice that there was another person in the house, and this person's cultivation was probably much higher than him.
The white fox rolled in Qin Gu's arms, rushed to the side of the bed in three or two steps, and jumped on the shoulders of one person.
The man wore a fox mask, revealing only a thin flap of his lips and a small mole on the side of his lips.
Most of his body was hidden in the darkness, and the jewels that fell on his clothes reflected the light.
Qin Gu immediately got out of bed and hugged his fists at him: "Uncle Mei came at night, and the juniors were rude and disrespectful." ”
This person is the current valley owner of Turbidity Cloud Valley, Mei Jingchi, it is rumored that Mei Jingchi has the appearance of a celestial man, but he is moody, and he can often see the disciples of Turbidity Cloud Valley being thrown by him to feed the beasts in the forest.
How did Mei Jingchi come here? And depending on the situation, he still came in through the window, could it be for Lin Yin's business this morning, and he came out for him?
There are not many scenes in Mei Jingchi in the original book, and Qin Gu didn't dare to speculate on the truth or falsehood of the rumors in the world, so he was a little apprehensive for a while.
Mei Jingchi laughed again, the laughter was pleasant and flirtatious: "I heard that you beat my little nephew's bird?" ”
Qin Gu's head lowered a little more: "Uncle Shi, listen to me..."
"Little Princess, take it easy," Mei Jingchi shook her head, and the jewel jingled, "It's not that I'm looking for you, it's the alliance leader looking for you and your little junior brother." I'm sorry to interrupt me late at night, but it's urgent, come with me. ”
He hooked his hand, and the white fox rushed from his shoulder to the top of Qin Gu's head;
Qin Gu didn't ask any more questions, and nodded in response.
Mei Jingchi led the way in front, turned slightly sideways and said to Qin Gu: "I thought we had already taken all the measures... It's a pity that the Demon Cultivation Mark appeared on the fairy boat. ”
Qin Gu's mouth opened slightly: How could it be?
Calculating the time, the ladder leading to the immortal boat should have been closed, and boarding the immortal boat would have to go through layers of inspections, not to mention anything else, it was already very difficult to mix in the monks of various sects.
What's more, he tried his best to get into the fairy boat, how could he show his feet now? What is he up to?
The questions were one after another, and the brain was almost filled, and Qin Gu followed Mei Jingchi to the front of the council hall.
The council hall is the place where the leaders of the Immortal Alliance and the ministers are in charge of the sect, and it is the largest building on the fairy boat - or the palace is more appropriate.
As far as the eye can see, it is magnificent, in the long corridor leading to the main hall, the family crest of the five great families each occupies a wall, and there is the emblem of the immortal alliance in front of it, which is as bright as the starry sky.
The main hall was cast a spell, and the people outside the hall couldn't hear the discussion in the hall, Mei Jingchi raised his hand, and the black cloud-like spiritual breath poured into a stone beast in front of the door, and after the stone beast devoured the spiritual power, he actually opened his mouth and spat out: "Lord of Turbid Cloud Valley, please come in." ”
The barrier disappeared, and Mei Jingchi walked into the main hall with Qin Gu.
In the hall, the heads of the five great families and the heads of the divisions were all there, and Ji Yun was standing between them, and when he saw Qin Gu and Mei Jingchi coming in one after the other, they all looked over.
Qin Gu Chong respectfully hugged his fists and greeted everyone.
The most powerful group of cultivators in the cultivation realm today are basically all here, and they are gathered here, which shows that the Demon Cultivation Mark is not trivial.
Qin Rulian stood in the center of the crowd and bowed his head and said, "Favor, come and take a look." ”
Qin Gu then stepped forward quickly, carefully squeezing into the crowd, only to find that a prism similar to a water mirror was suspended in the air, and in it, a smiling face painted with blood was reflected.
This is not any formation, just a simple expression composed of two points and one horizontal.
Qin Gu frowned, a little hesitant: "This is..."
Lu Mi rarely took the initiative to answer: "This was found in the forbidden place of the back mountain when the Demon Punishment Division was patrolling, and a crow feather was also found next to this grimace." ”
"Xiao Yanzhi doesn't know what the Houshan Forbidden Land is," Mei Jingchi still smiled on her lips, "The Houshan Forbidden Land is a place where demon cultivators and top-level demons are imprisoned... Oh, that's where Yan Baizhu escaped~"
So this time he left a mark in front of the forbidden land, which seemed to be painted at random when Yan Baishu revisited his hometown.
Qin Gu was silent for a moment and said, "Three years ago, Yan Baishu disguised himself as Senior Brother Qingli, if he hadn't despised me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to see through him." ”
But as the saying goes, if you eat a trench, you will grow wise, Yan Baishu has suffered losses in underestimating the enemy, and this disguise will only be better than three years ago.
Other people could also think of this, but there were many sects and sects on board the immortal boat, and there were countless disciples, and the scene was at a stalemate for a while.
A magnetic male voice sounded, but it was Ji Yun, who had been silent so far: "Can the mana of Yan Baishu block the spiritual breath of the Innocent Immortal Venerable?" ”
Qin Rulian shook his head and motioned for him to continue.
Ji Yun then arched his hand: "Why don't you let everyone worship the Innocent Immortal Venerable?" ”
His method is simple and rude, since he can't tell who is a demon cultivator, then let everyone accept the baptism of the coercion of the Innocent Immortal Venerable equally, and whoever reacts the most is the demon cultivator.
- Straightforward, yet effective.
Qin Gu secretly sighed to himself, the protagonist's brain circuit is different.
"No!" Before the others could express their position, a man wearing glasses said categorically, "The ancestor worship ceremony has its own set of rules and procedures, if you say that you can change it, wouldn't it be child's play?" ”
This man is Ling Xun, who is in charge of the Relocation Division, and the Relocation Department is in charge of the compilation of documents in the cultivation realm, and Ling Xun is even more rigorous to the extreme.
Mei Jingchi pinned the broken hair behind her ear: "I think I can give it a try." ”
Ling Xun frowned: "The Lord of Meigu is used to deviant, but the ancestor worship ceremony does not allow you to be unruly." ”
The white fox bared his teeth fiercely, and Mei was shocked and said, "Ling Zhangjiao thinks that demon cultivation or rules, which is more important?" ”
The atmosphere was tense for a while, and when there was a dispute, someone should knock on the board.
Qin Rulian's gaze stayed on Ji Yun's face for a moment, as if he had made a great determination: "If the matter is urgent, just follow what Xun Qing said." There is Lao Ling in charge, and the matter will be announced tomorrow after everyone enters. ”
The leader of the Immortal League spoke, and Ling Xun no longer agreed, so he had to agree, and reluctantly responded with a fist and "yes".
Qin Rulian ordered again, and the heads of the sects received the orders one by one, and finally, she looked at Qin Gu and Ji Yun.
"I haven't been here today." Qin Ru said, "He is likely to be by your side, don't let anyone see the flaws." ”
Qin Gu was puzzled in his heart, they were taken away late at night, and they didn't seem to be able to avoid being witnessed;
When he returned to the house, he realized that there was a doll in the house that was exactly the same size as himself, so vivid that he even had a breathing temperature.
Su Wen was proficient in the secret method of puppets, and Qin Gu was still the first time he had seen it, and he felt very novel.
The puppet saluted him, his figure dissipated abruptly, Qin Gu lay on the bed with his thoughts, sleepiness hit, and he quickly fell asleep.
The next day, the sun was shining.
The golden statue of the Innocent Immortal Venerable is at the highest point of the fairy boat, because the Innocent Immortal Venerable loves the common people in the world, it is said that from here he bows his head and can have an unobstructed view of the world, and the monks will stand his statue here.
The ancestor worship ceremony is divided into three stages, unveiling, autumn hunting and closing, visiting the Innocent Immortal Venerable is the most important part of the unveiling ceremony, in addition, in the past, when visiting the Innocent Immortal Venerable, the Tianbu Division will draw out the Tianbu Golden Lottery that indicates the future of the Xiuzhen Realm under the gaze of the Unsullied Immortal Venerable, and the content of the Tianbu Golden Signature is only known to the masters, which is also one of the reasons why the rest of the monks worship in the audience.
Today it is different.
When Qin Gu and the disciples of the Drinking Feng Pavilion arrived, they had already seen Ling Hongqu, the head of the Inspectorate in green clothes, appearing on the stage with the edict of the Immortal Alliance.
When she announced that all the monks would be incense to the Innocent Immortal Venerable in batches, Qin Gu deliberately observed the reactions of the people below.
Those who cheered, frowned, and exchanged ears all had some reason, and those who were expressionless or looked around deserved a lot of attention.
Qin Gu looked around again, and saw a flash of black robes near the exit, which meant that the disciples of the Demon Sect were ready.
The Drinking Feng Pavilion was divided into the second batch, and Qin Gu and the others waited outside the hall, listening to Ling Hongqu teach the precautions for worship.
Under the cover of Ling Hongqu's voice, Ji Yun came over quietly and lowered his voice: "Senior brother, from the left, the sixth person in the third column, the first person in the fifth column, and... Fourth person in the second column from the right. ”
Qin Gu nodded very slightly, these three people were also the object of his suspicion.
The first monks came out quickly, and the ritual was to be completed before sunset, and the time allotted to each group was short.
Ling Hongqu recited:
"Drinking Feng Pavilion, Jianquan Palace, Seven Star Gate..."
The disciples of the sect whose names were called lined up and walked towards the hall under the guidance of the service secretary.
The door slowly closed behind them, and with a muffled sound, spiritual power swept through the hall, like the sound of a final chime.
The statue of the Immaculate Immortal Venerable stood in front of him, and Qin Gu was curious about this Mahayana monk who was regarded as the respected ancestor in his heart.
Everyone folded their hands and bowed under the instructions, Qin Gu was not the original inhabitant of the book after all, and quietly looked at the statue while everyone else was bowing their heads.
At this glance, his chest shook violently.
There is no shortage of people in the Xiuzhen world who carve exquisitely, and the statue of the Immortal Venerable is more than ten meters high, but the face is vivid and vivid.
Judging from the statue, the Immortal Venerable is a young man, with one hand behind his back, the other hand in front of him, his long hair scattered, and his eyelids drooping, as if he was sympathetic to all beings.
This is where the sense of disobedience comes from.
The sealed hand in front of him is a typical sword technique, an offensive move; And in the hand behind his back, he held a long sword, the sword was unsheathed, and the cold light could almost be seen.
It was clear that there was a compassionate look on his face, but his body was shrouded in infinite murderous aura.
But I don't know if it's because everyone else hasn't deserted, or if it's some other reason, it seems that Qin Gu is the only one who feels uncomfortable.
He mentally asked the system to see if it was he who had the delusion.
The systematic answer is intriguing:
[Host, killing gods are also gods.] 】
