Chapter 85: Closing the Mountain (3)
After Concubine Qiao Xi entered the cave and talked with Ding Xing, the doubts in her heart suddenly disappeared.
"Just now these three monks talked about you, I heard some of them, they said that you are only twelve years old this year, is this true?" Ding Xing withdrew his hand and came back, he had just cast a spell to search Hou Chunsheng's soul, learned a lot of useful news about Binghua Mountain, and even unexpectedly discovered the recent situation of his ancestor Ding Chenzhi.
"Looking back at my predecessors, it is indeed twelve years old, which is not false at all. "Strictly compared, Concubine Qiao is still just a virgin, but she is slim and elegant, and her speech and demeanor are also mature, in fact, she is no different from a girl of fifteen or sixteen.
But there is one point, at her age, no matter how precocious she is, it is difficult to eliminate the childish recklessness, and it is difficult to hold her breath, she took the initiative to chat without Ding Xing, and opened her mouth to ask: "Dare to ask seniors, where is your hometown? Do you deny your father Meng Xiaotang?"
Ding Xing smiled, paused to hang his arms, sucked the fire orange fruit on the ground in his palm, and shook it at her: "This fruit is mine, when your father and mother rushed home from Jiuzhuang Market, and met two monks on the way, I helped them get out of danger, I was disguised at that time, I didn't meet them, I was temporarily happy, and threw an orange to your father, did your father tell you about this in the letter?"
Concubine Qiao Xi was overjoyed when she heard this, her father left this fire beacon orange, and naturally made a rough introduction to the origin of the orange in the letter, this matter is definitely private, not Uncle Ding's current situation, he will definitely not know.
The white-haired young man in front of him is indeed his father Meng Xiaotang's childhood playmate, confidant and friend, Uncle Ding.
Originally, she stood quite far away, and when Ding Xing finished speaking, she trotted to her: "Tell it!" Outside Sizhuang Slope, Uncle Ding killed a poisonous cultivator named Lu Bald, and also arrested a female bandit surnamed Cai, Dad said that Uncle Ding's ability is far better than him, let me encounter difficulties, so I went to Jinlu Winery to find you, but unfortunately the winery is no longer there, and I can't find out about you, hey, Uncle Ding, you should be the same age as your father, and you have refined to the realm of Xuanti, it seems that Dad is not lying. ”
She speaks a little inverted, and before she finishes one thing, she suddenly turns around to another, which may have something to do with emotional excitement or a child's jumping thoughts.
Ding Xing pointed at her: "You are not bad, you have the mana of the sixth layer of Qi cultivation at the age of twelve, and your achievements in the future are limitless." ”
Thinking that this old friend was a cultivation genius after that, according to this cultivation progress, she was expected to succeed in building a Xuanti before she was twenty years old, and asked, "Why didn't your grandparents send you to the Qiongtai faction, your qualifications are definitely enough." ”
Concubine Qiao Xi shook her head slowly: "Originally, I wanted to send it, I have an aunt who is a disciple of Shangzong, she doesn't agree, she didn't say the specific reason, she only said that I am easy to cause trouble in Shangzong, and it is safe to live in Qiao's house, and my aunt will go home regularly to pass on my spells, which is not much different from practicing in Shangzong." ”
A Taoist suddenly interjected: "Hey, it is estimated that Xiao Qiao's niece is too outstanding in appearance, and it is easy to be remembered by the noble disciples in the Qiongtai faction. ”
Shijing Xianzhuang was built by the Qiao family, but the Qiao family only has a few Xuanfei disciples in the Qiongtai faction, and this identity cannot deter those dignitaries.
Ding Xing didn't explore the reason, but only said to Concubine Qiao Xi: "Since your aunt is teaching you in private, she will definitely chase after Binghua Mountain, and if you leave home this time, it will also cause Shijing Quanzhuang to go out to search for you, casualties are inevitable, don't you know how serious the consequences are?"
Concubine Qiao Xi clenched her white palms, her hands were red and she didn't know it, she seemed to know that she had done something wrong, she suddenly became nervous, and whispered her heart: "My aunt doesn't allow me to leave home, but she doesn't tell me where my father and mother are, the brothers and sisters in the village have fathers and mothers, but I don't have them, I can't help it." ”
Ding Xing and Concubine Qiao Xi met for the first time, so it was enough to mention it.
waved his hand at her: "Your family inherits the art of tea alchemy, you must have brought a tea set to make a cup of tea, and thank you for cutting the feelings of your predecessors who helped you just now." ”
Concubine Qiao Xi hurriedly belched, as if she had been amnestied, and thought to herself that Uncle Ding looked gentle and elegant, why did a gentle question scare me uncomfortable, could it be the coercion of a monk in the Xuanfetal period, but when my aunt usually teaches, I have never felt this way.
She has been very bold since she was a child, no matter what happens, even if she is afraid, she dares to deal with it head-on, only to see her stretch out a finger and point the fire beacon orange in her hand: "Uncle Ding, can you give me back the orange?"
Ding Xing was stunned: "What else do you want it for?"
Concubine Qiao Xifei was methodical and replied softly: "This orange was originally yours by Uncle Ding, but you have already given it to my father, that is my father's thing, and he passed it on to me, of course I have to take good care of it, otherwise it will be unfilial, Uncle Ding, are you right?"
Ding Xing raised his hand and threw it to her.
She smiled and went to pick up her treasure sleeve, originally seeing Uncle Ding, she felt that she had to rely on, and she didn't have to be afraid in Binghua Mountain in the future, and she thought that she would be able to find her father and mother soon, and she was very happy, thinking that she would follow Uncle Ding in the future, and she would have to make tea and wait every day, so that Uncle Ding could not make her feel that she didn't know how to be polite.
Before she left home, she went to the market to buy a batch of medium-grade Shijing, this kind of tea has the title of all-purpose tea, which can nourish the face and maintain the body, and often drink it to enhance mana.
She took out the Shijing tea directly, and wanted to show her best craftsmanship to thank Ding Xing and a scissor to relieve her from danger.
Who knew that she put out the tea set, rolled up her sleeves, and suddenly felt her shoulders tremble, as if something had fallen on her shoulders, she turned her head to look, and almost screamed.
"Ahhhhhh
She didn't want to make friends with the little book demon at all, this little demon killed people like cutting grass, Ding Xing joined forces with a cutter to kill one person, but this little demon killed two alone, it was really terrifying.
"Demon ...... Demon senior, you are raised by my Uncle Ding, right? I am Uncle Ding's niece, in fact, we are very close, my name is Concubine Xi, why don't you come down first? I will bow to you. She saw that the little book demon was motionless, and turned her head to look at Ding Xing, but Ding Xing was cleaning up the traces of the fighting method just now with a scissor.
She didn't dare to bother.
Seeing her stiff and motionless, the little book demon suddenly raised his arm and pointed to the tea set and shouted.
"Oh, the demon senior wants to drink tea, I'll make it for you!"
At this moment, Concubine Qiao couldn't stop being in a hurry, and her earlier joy was gone, so she only cared about trembling, for fear that the little book demon would not be happy, and she would come to beat her.
After a while, Ding Xing and a scissor cleaned up the battlefield, and came to the ice wall on the inside of the ice cave, which was originally completely sealed, but was first hit by a small book demon to open a gap, and then driven by a scissor to drive the paper soldiers under the moon to hit a crack.
Ding Xing was the last to come out, and directly cast the 'Little Flame Wheel', blasting open a tunnel that was a few feet high, which extended to the depths of the iceberg, and when the naked eye looked into it, there was a faint shadow of a light gate at the end, and there was a faint swarm of insects wriggling in the door.
A few days ago, Ding Xing was teleported to this iceberg through the moon paper door, and he is still breaking the ban, and the inheritance mantle of the ancient paper school has not yet been taken, so he ran into Concubine Qiao Xi in distress.
After learning of Concubine Qiao Xi's background, Ding Xing decisively broke through the ice and appeared to rescue the daughter of this old friend.
As soon as the ice wall opens, the traces of the iceberg secret mansion will also be exposed.
However, a scissor who collected a treasure from the red-crowned fairy can solve this trouble, and he handed an ice box to Ding Xing: "This is a rare ice spirit, just hang it on the ice wall to cast a spell, you can easily make the tunnel heal, after the mountain is closed, there will be no difference from the original appearance!"
