Qingxuan Realm.

Western regions.

Next to a stream in the woods in the territory of Chu.

Yan Xiu sat and fished with a homemade simple fishing rod in his right hand.

And his left hand was lightly twisted with a red and clear blood-colored bead.

It's called the Blood God Bead.

It was the magic weapon that his master gave him when he left the Blood God Sect and went to the Qingxuan Cave Heaven.

A ritual vessel with no specifications.

Because let's say it's weak, it's really weak, it's not attacking, it's just a mediocre, small bead that looks like a glass marble.

But if you say it's strong, it can really be strong.

If it is used with the secret method of the Blood God Sect to continuously absorb the power of the blood and qi of living beings, it can be used as the foundation of a large array.

The foundation of the supreme formation of the Demon Sect.

This array is called - Stygian Heaven.

Stygian Array!

Those who enter this formation are like entering a world completely cut off from the outside world, and lose all perception of the outside world.

After entering the formation, life and death are no longer determined by oneself, but by the will of the person who controls the formation.

Hades, but those who enter this array have no tomorrow.

But it is very difficult for this bead to grow to the point where it can be used as a base for the formation, and the conditions are extremely harsh.

According to his master's plan, he needed to kill enough 100 million living beings within the Qingxuan Cave Heaven to fill this bead with the power of their blood and qi.

When he first came to this Qingxuan Cave Heaven before, he slaughtered a country called Shiguo very neatly.

Probably there are 30 million people.

But it's not enough to fill this Blood God Bead, at least you have to slaughter the land of the two kingdoms again.

But.......

Yan Xiu suddenly raised the bead and looked at the blood bead that was even more crystal clear under the sunlight and suddenly smiled.

Why did God let him meet that woman?

It made him lose all of a sudden, and if he could, he really wanted to grow old with this woman whose name he still didn't know for the rest of his life.

However, the Master's orders must be fulfilled after all.

That's it, don't want this blood god bead to urge the big array, anyway, isn't the ultimate goal to wipe out all the righteous path monks?

Without any Immortal Array, he could have killed all those righteous path cultivators himself.

Speaking of righteous monks..... She is also a monk, and the monks in the Qingxuan Cave Heaven are either the Demon Dao or the Righteous Dao.

She is definitely not a demon, then it can only be the right way.

Forget it, let this woman go when the time comes. If the master blames it, let it be endured.

But then again, since ancient times, good and evil have not been separated, if he confesses his identity.

Will the woman accept him?

Or maybe you can't even make friends?

He raised his eyes and looked at the Blood God Bead for a while, and his eyebrows were full of sorrow.

For the first time in all these years, he felt disgusted with his status as a demonic monk.

"Hey, have you caught any fish?!"

There was a sudden sound of coquettish cheers in the distance, which frightened Yan Xiu and threw out the fishing rod and blood god bead in his hand at once.

"Plop. ”

The rod crashed into the water with a splash.

The Blood God Bead rolled all the way down to a red shoe.

Lin Wanqiu stepped on the red bead that suddenly rolled down in front of her, and then bent down curiously to pick up the bead and look at it.

"Hey, Yanxiu, is this yours?"

"Yes!" Yan Xiu hurriedly came, wanting to reach out and take the beads, but Lin Wanqiu dodged sideways.

Lin Wanqiu looked at the red bead that looked crystal clear under the sunlight and suddenly smiled, and said, "This bead looks so good." ”

Yan Xiu looked at the gentle smile on her face and was stunned, and she was a little stupid for a while.

"Do you like it?" he said halfway.

"Well, I like it very much!" Lin Wanqiu also kept looking at the bead in her hand when she spoke, with a little light in her eyes, obviously liking it very much.

She loves the color red.

The clothes are red, and the sword is red, so I naturally like this red bead very much.

“...........”

I like it.....

After receiving this reply, Yan Xiu looked struggling for a while, but finally said, "I'm sorry, this ..... This bead is so important to me that I can't give it to you. ”

Hearing this, Lin Wanqiu suddenly turned around, hurriedly handed the beads in her hand to Yan Xiu, and chuckled: "I didn't want it, it's yours." ”

"I ......." Yan Xiu looked at the blood god bead that was stuffed into his hand, and his heart was mixed for a while.

If I could give her the Blood God Orb, she would be very happy, right?

But...... Not really.

"Hey Yan Xiu, don't talk about this, have you caught a fish, I want to eat fish!" Lin Wanqiu said to Yan Xiu with her hands on her waist and angrily.

Yan Xiu's body trembled suddenly, and then he plunged directly into the stream full of swimming fish.

"Right now!"

............

............

Three days later,

Lin Wanqiu and Yan Xiu stood a few hundred meters away in front of the Great Chu King Capital.

Lin Wanqiu looked at the city, took out a jade pendant from the storage ring, and then crushed it.

At the same time, a very slight aura spread from the jade pendant and spread to this heaven and earth.

This is a small magic weapon of the Tian Yuan Immortal Sect, and after being crushed, it will release a breath that belongs to Tian Yuan.

This aura was very slight, and it was almost impossible for the rest of the monks to detect it, but if there were disciples of the Tianyuan Immortal Sect within a thousand miles nearby, they would definitely be able to sense it.

After crushing the jade pendant, Lin Wanqiu stood in place for half an hour.

There was no movement.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but bow her head and sigh.

Alas, the junior brother is not here.

Forget it, it's all here, let's go out into town.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanqiu walked directly to the city gate, and Yan Xiu beside him hurriedly followed when he saw this.

After the two walked into the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty, they found that there were lanterns hanging in front of almost every street and every Chu shop, and there were many couplets pasted here.

And the pedestrians on the street were talking and laughing one by one, and Lin Wanqiu also found that there seemed to be a lot of couples in pairs in this city, and the whole city was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Lin Wanqiu couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this, she seemed to have heard that there was a festival among mortals, and on that day, almost every household would hang lanterns and paste couplets.

The Spring Festival is also called the New Year.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly ran to a woman selling sugar gourds on the street, took out a few copper plates, and said loudly: "Auntie, bring me two sugar gourds." ”

"Oh, okay. The woman smiled and took out two sugar gourds from the sugar gourd rack beside her and handed them to Lin Wanqiu.

After Lin Wanqiu took it, she took one of them and waved it at Yan Xiu behind her.

"Oh, please. ”

Seeing this, Yan Xiu hurriedly stepped forward to take the sugar gourd, but he was not in a hurry to eat it, but looked at Lin Wanqiu and smiled.

"What are you laughing at, like a fool, if you want to eat it, you can eat it quickly!" Lin Wanqiu said with a wrinkled nose.

Yanxiu: ".........."

Then Lin Wanqiu bit a sugar gourd, and asked in a vague voice to the woman selling the sugar gourd: "Auntie, are you going to celebrate the New Year?"

Unexpectedly, the woman was stunned when she heard this, and then laughed and said: "What's the New Year, today is the seventh day of the seventh month of July, and the Qixi Festival." ”

"Chinese New Year's Eve?" Lin Wanqiu scratched his little head and wondered: "Do you also want to hang lanterns and paste couplets on the Qixi Festival?"

"Hehe, that can't be generalized, only our Chu State has this habit. The woman laughed.

"Oh......." Lin Wanqiu dragged out a long voice.

The question is,

What is Qixi Festival?

She asked the woman curiously, "Then how are you going to spend the Qixi Festival?"

Hearing her words, the woman couldn't cry or laugh again, and only after half a sound did she continue: "Auntie, my son can make soy sauce, and what is the Qixi Festival, these are the festivals of your young people." ”

Then the woman glanced at Yan Xiu, who had been silent behind Lin Wanqiu, and said with a smile: "Tonight, there is a fireworks team invited by the princes and nobles in the east of the city, and fireworks will be set off for the whole city to see." “

"When those fireworks explode in the sky, that sight, tsk, in the words of you young people, is very romantic. ”

"Don't forget to go tonight, these things are the best for a little couple like you. ”

"Little couple?!" Lin Wanqiu was taken aback.

"Hey, she said we're a little couple. Yan Xiu suddenly came up and smiled at Lin Wanqiu.

"Shut up!"

Lin Wanqiu crossed her waist depressedly, and then looked at the sky.

It was not far from dusk, and it would be dark in about two hours.

Saying....... Fireworks to watch at night?

"Hey, Yanxiu, should we go to see fireworks at night?"

"Okay. ”
