Chapter 22 Untie the knot
Who knew that Lu Qi had just walked out of the door, and suddenly remembered something, turned his head and whispered to Zheng Cang: "Come here, I have something to ask you." β
Zheng Cang was overjoyed, and ran over resignedly, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Lu has something to ask, and the junior brother will never hide what he knows!"
"That...... Let me ask you, where is Situ Qianyu's cave mansion, do you know?" Lu Qi asked a little embarrassed.
"Senior Brother Lu, are you asking about Situ Qianyu, the daughter of the dean?" Zheng Cang said.
"Could it be that there are other people in this Xiuzhen Academy who are also called Situ Qianyu?" Lu Qi said suspiciously.
"Oh, that's it, you're really asking the right question, cross the small lake, follow the road, pass through a nine-story tower in the center, and on the right side of the tower is Situ Qianyu's cave. Zheng Cang blinked, with a look of flattery. Then he said in his heart: "Captain Zhou has explained, and seeing Lu Qi in the future is like seeing the captain, what kind of magic power does this Lu Qi have, which can coax Captain Zhou around?"
"Oh, no, no, I'm going to find her some cultivation matters, I want to ask this girl, don't think about it, I'm very simple, okay, it's none of your business, step down, but this matter must be kept secret for me." Lu Qi's face was red to the root of his ears when Zheng Cang said, and he said embarrassedly.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Lu, the younger brother won't let the second person know. Zheng Cang turned around and left with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Qi looked at Zheng Cang and seemed to be making fun of himself, but he knew that Zheng Cang was a person, although he was a little small-bellied, but he was still a duty, honest, and timid as a mouse, so Zheng Cang generally would not publicize this matter.
Lu Qi slowly searched in the direction pointed by Zheng Cang, basically didn't meet anyone along the way, after crossing the small lake, he walked a distance again, and saw a nine-story tower standing in the center from a distance, and the lights on the spire were bright.
The whole tower is all built of mahogany, the edge of each layer of the tower is carved with a dragon head, the top of the tower is a lightning rod, straight into the sky, look up and see that the whole tower is at least three hundred zhang high, vigorous, majestic and magnificent; Lu Qi suddenly waits and sees, can't help but reverie, such a high building can not be completed by manpower, it must be a person who cultivates to be advanced to build this tower.
And at this moment, in the tower, Situ Hao was meditating with his eyes closed, and suddenly his eyes froze, and he whispered: "This kid came here late at night, isn't he also Qianyu's suitor?" Every night there is no shortage of boring people to harass Qianyu, no wonder this girl's divine vein body, everyone who sees her appearance will fall for it, I can't imagine that this kid is not exempt from vulgarity." Situ Hao smiled bitterly, continued to cultivate, and then ignored it.
Lu Qi is getting closer and closer to Situ Qianyu's cave, and he is tiptoeing more and more when he acts, like being a thief, after all, it is the first time he is looking for a strange girl, and he looks down on himself morally, maybe this thing is not a glorious thing, it belongs to the kind of thing that the flower picking thief does, since he was a child, he originally looked down on this kind of chicken and dog thief, but today he has done this kind of person, it is really impermanent, but in order to cultivate and be able to meditate and calm down, there is no way to do it once, so I had to walk over hardγ
Although it is night at this time, there are many lanterns along the way that emit some faint light, and you will see some hazy scenes; this Lu Qi knows best, because he lit these lanterns some time ago, and there is only a nine-story tower, Lu Qi doesn't come much, so he is not too familiar with the road conditions here.
Presumably, in order to catch a glimpse of Situ Qianyu's demeanor, some disciples rushed to work around the beauty's cave to comfort the pain of lovesickness on weekdays.
Today is strange, there is no one on the road, it is surprisingly quiet, if a nail falls on the ground at this time, the entire Xiuzhen Temple can hear it, Lu Qi in order not to make a sound, he used the earth-earth technique of 'shrinking the ground into inches', walked two steps, and came to the door of Situ Qianyu's cave.
"Five Elements Technique?" Situ Hao's eyes between his eyebrows suddenly opened, a red light looked over, and he stared intently, "It's this kid again, how can he know the Five Elements Technique, I just heard that someone in this continent has used it before, but it has been extinct for hundreds of years, and it is impossible for the Five Elements of this planet to be mobilized, how did he do it?" Situ Hao felt that Lu Qi was like a mystery, one surprise after another gave him, and his opinion on Lu Qi changed a lot, "Is this son really extraordinary?"
Lu Qi simply used 'shrinking the ground into inches', but he didn't know that someone had changed his opinion of him a lot, making him from an ordinary disciple to a key cultivation target.
The cave house is also made of stone, about three zhang high, there are two wooden pillars at the door, there is a lantern hanging at the top of each pillar, behind it is a row of green bamboo, the breeze blows on the green bamboo, makes the sound of 'brushing', it is pure and elegant;
Lu Qi looked at these four big characters, and knew that it must have come from the hand of Qian Yu, the pen was flowing smoothly, and the pen was like a cloud of smoke, so it was really true to look at words like looking at people, and it could be seen from between the lines that there was a stunning beauty in the cave.
"Since I have some questions when I am cultivating, I came to visit late at night and ask Senior Sister Situ to solve my doubts in Xia!" Lu Qi respectfully clasped his fists and saluted outside the cave.
At this time, the entire cave was quiet, silent, and lasted for about two breaths, and a sweet light drink came from the cave: "If you have something to ask directly, I will tell you sincerely." β
Situ Qianyu picked up a pair of beautiful eyes, and said in her heart: "What is he doing so late, is he also a suitor, and then his face turned red, shouldn't it, my father said that as long as a normal man sees me, he will be unable to give up, I can't imagine that this Lu Qi is such a mediocre person, I thought his concentration was so strong." β
"Senior sister, can you let me enter the cave to talk in detail?" Lu Qi continued to say cheekily.
"It's late at night, you have a man entering the female boudoir, do you think it's appropriate?
"But Sister Situ clearly said that day, if you have any questions about cultivation below, you can come to you, Senior Sister, but now that you are cultivating under the bottle, you can ask for clarification and come from afar, but Senior Sister has closed the door, is it because she wants to break her promise?" Lu Qi is the kind of person who will not give up until he reaches his goal, the more you don't open the door, the more patient I have, and you have no temper.
"My father has taught me since I was a child that I must be trustworthy and not break my word, but if I let this junior brother into the door so late, this girl's reputation will be ruined in the future, and it will also harm this junior brother, and from now on he will attract many enemies" Situ Qianyu said in her heart.
"Do you have any doubts about cultivation, let's just say it, it's really inconvenient to open the door with you at such a late hour. "Situ Qianyu is at a loss after all, and he is a very introverted person, so he was a little embarrassed to be said by Lu Qi.
'At this time, if you enter Situ Qianyu's cave mansion, it will be a little reckless, after all, it is night, and it is really not good to ruin the reputation of other girls in the future', thinking of this, Lu Qi blushed and said shyly: "I always can't meditate at the critical moment of cultivation, which leads to stagnation in cultivation, the reason is that as long as I close my eyes, I will have your beautiful face in my mind, lingering, as the so-called cultivator must be open-minded and unobstructed, today I want to ask my senior sister to relieve my heart knot." β
Lu Qi came out completely at this time, and his heart felt suddenly enlightened, and the knot blocked in the meridians was blocked. Boom' rushed away, and then hurriedly took this opportunity to meditate and practice at the gate of Situ Qianyu's cave on the spot, according to Zhou Tian's running method, only to see the surrounding rich aura circling in front of Lu Qi, all of which were inhaled into the body by Lu Qi, and the aura continued to wash Lu Qi's various meridians, and finally like a lake and river, it merged into the dantian, and slowly formed a cyclone in the dantian............
Although Situ Qianyu often heard some suitors say such words to her, she didn't feel it anymore, but this time Lu Qi said to her that she missed her and something like that, but she said that her heart trembled slightly, maybe she felt that Lu Qi did not have a trace of pretentiousness, and she was quite sincere and discerning; Originally, a thick line of defense was built for all men, but at this time, Lu Qi's true confession scratched out this line of defense, Situ Qianyu suddenly couldn't help but want to go out to meet this junior brother, but because of his natural dignity and the inherent reserve of women, he controlled it and did not go out to meetγ
An impulse hidden in Situ Qianyu's heart for many years, but it has become wild, generally speaking, the more introverted a woman, there is always a wildness in her heart, once she is interested in a man, she will rush to him like a stormy wave, Situ Qianyu belongs to such a woman, no one has ever dared to speak to her like this for so many years, Lu Qi's humility and arrogance, and his heart is as pure as jade, all of which are deeply imprinted in Situ Qianyu's soul.
Situ Qianyu's face was slightly red, and there was a trace of fragrant sweat on his forehead, as if he had been touched in the depths of his soul just now, and he should react. Meixin Tianmu suddenly sensed that Lu Qi was meditating outside the door, so he had to close his eyes and remain silent, waiting for Lu Qi to wake up, and pondered in his mind: "This Lu Qi is really incredible, this time the kung fu will have another epiphany, surprised again and again, what kind of person are you."
Maybe Situ Qianyu was a little curious about Lu Qi, so Situ Qianyu wanted to further contact and understand Lu Qi, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart......
A round of rising sun slowly rose in the eastern sky,
The birds are singing clearly,
The flowers and plants in the courtyard are covered with dewdrops,
The morning air is exceptionally crisp;
Lu Qi, who had been meditating all night, slowly woke up, and after the heart knot was reached, the absorbed heaven and earth aura once again washed the meridians, expanded the dantian, and stabilized Lu Qi's cultivation in the early stage of foundation building.
Lu Qi slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and found that he was still at the door of Situ Qianyu's cave mansion, he couldn't help but be extremely embarrassed, quickly patted the dust on his body, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Please forgive me for disturbing last night, thank you for staying overnight." "After speaking, he flew away as if he was flying, because it was broad daylight, he could only walk, Lu Qi didn't dare to use 'shrinking the ground into inches', for fear of causing some unnecessary trouble.
Some disciples watched Lu Qi leave from the door of Situ Qianyu's cave, some widened their eyes, some despised it, and some laughed at his uselessness.
"Look at another suitor!"
"Look at that unproductive appearance, the girl is not allowed to enter, and she is still guarding the door all night, it is really shameless!" a disciple of the inner door booed.
"Look at that thing that looks black and doesn't slip away, it's still an outer door dog, it's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat!" A core disciple on the edge of the nine-story tower was getting up in the morning to absorb the morning and evening rain and dew, and when he saw this scene, he sneered.
"Hey, the young people nowadays really don't know how thick the sky is, they don't know how many catties and taels they have, and they are trying in vain to get involved with such fairies!" said an elder in his forties, "The old man also likes this girl, but he can't climb high, but he can't allow you, an outer dog, to get involved" The elder thought secretly in his heart.
