Chapter 246: Innocence
On the central path of Fengyun Village, Si Xiang and Bei Ming Xiu walked slowly, walking and talking about things that should be discussed.
For example, the black-clothed cultivator.
For example, I don't know where else I am trying to peep into the heavens.
For example, the catastrophe that the Sikong family is suffering.
The most recent is still Yuan Xue.
"Thank you so much this time. I thought that Liu Sheng would be able to protect her well and not let that Zhong Wuyan take advantage of it, but I didn't expect it...... Forget it, it's also a non-person I trust. β
Because of Yuan Xue's near death, Si Xiang's mood was obviously not very good, his breathing was slightly short, and his beautiful face, which looked like it didn't eat the fireworks of the world, was also stained with a little anger.
She practiced the sword salute towards the Northern Darkness, and those in the Snow Peak Sword Sect who could afford this salute must at least be the guest in the sect.
This wordless thank you is even more sincere.
The Northern Meditation also raised the first question on the way.
"Yuan Xue walks the rivers and lakes, is it too early?"
Si Xiang's face was slightly displeased, and he just told a story inside the Snow Peak Sword Sect.
The Xuefeng Sword Sect is far away on the Tianshan Mountain next to the northwest border of the human world, and most of its disciples are women, who are famous for their long-sky swordsmanship and Tianshan sword technique, and even faintly can compete with the Canglang Gate, which is known as the "No. 1 Sword Gate in the world".
But also because of the unique terrain of the Snow Peak Sword Sect, most of the disciples of the Snow Peak Sword Sect were sought from the outside world, so that the long-term stability of the sect could be maintained.
Eleven years ago, when an elder of the Snow Peak Sword Sect was training in the human world, he vaguely saw a golden light descending from a small village, and hurriedly went to the small village to check, but it was a poor family surnamed Yuan that a baby girl was born.
It's just that the family surnamed Yuan is not wealthy, and the family already has two daughters, so they really can't afford this third child.
Perhaps because of this, when the elders came to visit, hoping to accept the baby girl into the Snow Peak Sword Sect, the parents of the baby girl happily agreed.
That baby girl is Yuan Xue.
At that time, Si Xiang had already begun to show his edge, and at the age of sixteen, he was already able to compete with the senior sister who was nearly thirty years old at the time in the sword fight, and was known as a rare genius of the Snow Peak Sword Sect for a hundred years.
And when Yuan Xue grew to the age of four, after the elders of the sect measured the root bones for her, the name of this rare genius in a hundred years was divided into half, and the sect master directly accepted Yuan Xue as a disciple and personally awarded Yuan Xue swordsmanship.
It's just that Yuan Xue has always had a stubborn temperament, and he always refuses to practice well, and in a few years, he is only slightly ahead of those Heavenly Pride of various sects, far lower than the result predicted by the most knowledgeable elder in the sect before.
And the head of the Snow Peak Sword Sect also entered the ice cave in the back mountain alone, trying to find another way to go from the ninth-order cultivation that Kankan climbed to a further step, and this retreat has not come out yet.
The young Yuan Xue also disliked that the older elders were not fun and refused to study hard.
So when Yuan Xue was nine years old, after breaking the third-order barrier in a fool's errand playing in the snow, the person who taught her was replaced by Si Xiang.
In the eyes of the sect elders, Yuan Xue is the greatest hope of the Snow Peak Sword Sect in a hundred years, and by the guidance of Si Xiang, who can become the mainstay of the Snow Peak Sword Sect and is also very relied on by her, he may be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
Si Xiang also proved Yuan Xue's talent and his own efforts with facts.
But at the same time, the elders of the sect, including Si Xiang, also thought of a question.
Yuan Xue's nature is too pure, she almost cheats and leaves, and she loves to play and make trouble, she can't be idle almost all the time, and there is a layer in her mind that is thankful for her cultivation.
So at the beginning of this year, when Yuan Xue was about to step into the threshold of the fourth order, under the instruction of the sect, Si Xiang took Yuan Xue and began to go down the mountain to practice.
One is the present of the Snow Peak Sword Sect, and the other is the future of the Snow Peak Sword Sect twenty years later, and this experience can gain a lot for them.
It's just that Si Xiang is used to protecting this innocent little girl around him, and Yuan Xue is also used to having the protection of her senior sister.
Along the way, her heart has not changed much, even if she has seen many things, and she is entangled by Zhong Buyan in the middle, nothing has changed.
Si Xiang said frankly: "I don't want her mood to change, children, should be so innocent and lively." β
Bei Ming Xiu couldn't help but think of the boy who almost always looked at the world with black eyes in the past, and said deeply: "You are right. β
Regardless of whether she is the mainstay of the Snow Peak Sword Sect in the future, she is now a child who needs to be cared for.
Pulling seedlings to help them grow will only be counterproductive.
Si Xiang nodded and said, "I agreed to the elders' request, but I just wanted her to see more of the scenery on the road, always staying on a mountain, and her horizons could not be broadened." β
She paused and said solemnly: "Zhou Han, thank you for being willing to play naughty with this little girl, I can see that she is angry on the surface, but she is actually very happy." β
"If you can, when I'm away, please help take care of Yuan Xue, this Fengyun Village...... I can't see through it. β
Bei Ming Xiu nodded in agreement.
When mentioning Yuan Xue, although Si Xiang's expression was as cold as usual, it would be a little vivid.
Yuan Xue is to her, just like the North is to him. All right
She is willing to stay in front of Yuan Xue until she can face the ups and downs of this world independently.
And he doesn't hate this innocent little girl.
They all know that the biggest problem is still this Fengyun Village.
The mysterious beggar who may have Fang Chengyi's heritage.
I don't know why there are many spiritual things in the world.
The four poor people who didn't blink their eyes.
Sikong Jing must be hiding something, he just doesn't want them to know.
Si Xiang and him are both worried about one thing.
The beggar was still on the run, and he couldn't find his whereabouts when he searched Fengyun Village.
Even if they completely protect Sikong Jing and Sikong Han, it is still possible for him to take advantage of it.
Yuan Xue may also bear a weight that she shouldn't be at her ageβdeath that could come at any time.
At that time, Yuan Xue may have a hard time finding her smile for a period of time.
Si Xiang didn't want to see this kind of scene, and he didn't want to.
"Trust me, we'll catch him. Bei Mingxiu squinted at the slightly crippled sun, and said with a smile, "No matter how strong he is, no matter how many means he has, there is only one person, and some of the methods have already been figured out by us." β
"Yes, last time I almost hit his evil spiritual power, if I encounter it again, within ten moves, he will die. β
When she said this, the senior sister of the Snow Peak Sword Sect had a calm expression, as if she was just expounding an ironclad fact.
Among the cultivators in the main village, she is the only one who can say this sentence so confidently.
Frost Sword Si Xiang is by no means a wasted name.
Bei Mingxiu smiled slightly, changed the subject, and said, "In your opinion, when will that guy act?"
"I can't tell. Si Xiang said calmly, "But if you want to choose one of Sikong Jing and Sikong Han to kill, I will definitely choose Sikong Han first." β
"Yes, the owner of the second village is sloppy and irritable, reckless and impulsive, and it is easy to fall for other people's ways. Bei Mingxiu remembered the poor man who was inserted in the soil a few days ago, and shook his head slightly, "Even if he is thick and fine, the death of the Sanzhai Master has already made him feel in a big turmoil, and it is only a matter of time before he is taken advantage of." β
He sighed: "I suddenly had an idea. β
Si Xiang looked at him calmly and did not answer.
Bei Ming Xiu smiled and said, "You definitely know. β
Si Xiang nodded slightly and said, "Herring roe." β
At this time, herring roe should be trying to restore the soul of the old priest with the supernatural power of Tianfeng Guan, and then deduce the information they want from it, but now that they have determined the identity of the murderer, herring roe's behavior has become a trick.
If he were to count the position of a beggar, it might only take him a few breaths.
Fortune telling, especially fortune telling for a long time, most of them have to find a place that will not be easily discovered, and maybe they will use magic to cover up, otherwise if they are discovered by the enemy, they will be killed directly, and they will be confused into the underworld and have nowhere to redress their grievances, so they can only whine and mourn.
The two looked at each other.
Si Xiang's expression did not fluctuate, and said, "You come on." β
Bei Mingxiu smiled and nodded, and said: "In this case, let's wander around Fengyun Village, it's our luck to be able to find it, and if we can't find it, it's up to him to go, anyway, he will always appear." β
"Maybe with a little luck, you might catch that guy directly. β
Si Xiang bowed slightly.
While talking and laughing, the two have returned to the gate of the main village.
Yuan Xue poked her little head out of the corner of the wall, and saw that Bei Mingxiu and Si Xiang were talking and laughing, and she felt a little unhappy for some reason.
But when she appeared in Si Xiang's field of vision, Si Xiang would still look at her for the first time, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
No matter how faint the smile is, it is also a smile.
Yuan Xue smiled, threw herself into her senior sister's arms, and at the same time did not forget to make a grimace towards the North Meditation Cultivator.
Bei Ming Xiu smiled in response.
If there are children, let's talk about the adults later.
When he thought about this, he didn't remember at all, and he was only nineteen years old.
