Chapter 30 "The Dark Clouds Rise"
On Xuanhuo Peak, Zhou Chenhai had just left. Qin Xiao had not yet returned to Panshi Peak, and he was instructing Du Yuanqing to practice swords in the bamboo forest at this time. Du Shiyao watched from a distance and did not step forward.
After practicing for a while, Du Yuanqing was tired and sat aside to rest.
Qin Xiao walked up to Du Shiyao and said to her, "Miss Du, you must have participated in this Capture the Flag Conference." ”
Du Shiyao replied: "So what?"
"Approaching the conference, it is most important to improve cultivation, and martial arts moves must not be left behind. You and I are similar in cultivation, so you might as well learn from each other, confirm each other's shortcomings, and improve our cultivation together. What does Miss Du think?"
Qin Xiao is smiling, making people feel close.
Du Shiyao wanted to refuse, but looking at this handsome young man who was radiant, his smile was like a spring breeze, warming people's hearts.
Du Shiyao finally couldn't bear to refuse and agreed.
This time, both drew their swords, intending to test their sword skills.
The two of them are chasing the wind and chasing the shadow sword this time, this is the advanced swordsmanship of the Luoshen Sect, and it cannot be learned by non-Qingyi disciples.
Qin Xiao made a gesture and said: "Chasing the wind and chasing the shadow sword, stepping on the first realm of Yan, please advise." ”
Du Shiyao was shocked and said, "You actually practiced to the realm of stepping on the swallow?"
The four realms of chasing the wind and chasing the shadow sword, flying shuttle, stepping on the swallow, chasing the wind, chasing the shadow.
Less than a month after Qin Xiao was promoted to a disciple of the green shirt, he had already practiced his swordsmanship to the realm of Tayan, and he was really talented.
Qin Xiao replied: "Yes, Miss Du doesn't need to be surprised. With my help, within a month, you can also practice to the Swallow Realm. ”
"Hmph! Look at the sword!"
Qin Xiao was still not angry, and responded to the sword with a smile.
Du Yuanqing, who was resting on the side, carefully watched the competition between the two, it was the most thrilling sword fight he had seen since he went up the mountain, the sword qi flew back and forth in the bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves fell all over the sky, which was wonderful.
It's just that Du Yuanqing always felt uneasy in his heart, he looked at the two people who were competing in swordsmanship, and Qin Xiao's charming gaze often stayed on Du Shiyao.
It is normal for the two to compete with swords, and to focus on the enemy. Du Yuanqing felt unhappy in his heart, and he secretly said in his heart: "Is it possible that this Brother Qin Xiao can't fall in love with my sister?"
............
At midnight, the crescent moon hangs high, and on the Xuanhuo Peak, the lantern flickers with a faint fire.
In the dead of night, except for the disciples who were on vigil patrol, everyone else had fallen asleep.
In the library pavilion, a wisp of green smoke flew out, swept high into the sky, and disappeared in the clouds.
A moment later, above the courtyard where Yankong lived, in the silent sky, a cloud began to twist and rotate, turning faster and faster.
A tornado coalesced from the center of the clouds and gradually hit the open space in the middle of the courtyard.
The clouds began to spin, and the sky had already woken up from its deep sleep.
There was an astonishing coercion from the clouds, and in an instant, the sky was enveloped, making him sleepy!
"This is?!"
Yankong sat up from the bed, beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead.
He wanted to get up and go out to check, but his body didn't listen to him, and he couldn't make a sound. In desperation, I had to wait and see the changes outside the house.
The tornado hung to the ground, the wind in the courtyard was agitated, the fallen leaves were swept into the wind, the bricks and tiles were splashed, and the doors and windows danced wildly with the wind, beating the window along the door frame.
After a short time, the tornado dissipated and calm returned to the precincts. An old man with a white beard and white hair appeared in the middle of the courtyard.
"Yankong, get out!"
The old man said in a deep voice.
As the old man's words fell, the sky could move.
He walked out of the door, bowed deeply to the old man in the courtyard, and said respectfully: "It turned out that Senior Brother Taiqing was here, Senior Brother had not left the house for a long time, and now he came to the Humble House, I don't know what to send, and the younger brother must obey the instructions carefully." ”
The old man who came out of the tornado was Elder Taiqing. He came late at night, and before anyone arrived, he gave Yankong a dismount first.
Tai Qing snorted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense." Let me ask you, are you teaching Zhou Chenhai's little doll?"
Yan Kong was shocked in his heart, and thought, "How could he know about Zhou Chenhai?
Yankong didn't know the relationship between Taiqing and Zhou Chenhai, Zhou Chenhai had been in the library for the past three years, often with Taiqing as his companion, and Taiqing often taught him to practice, and the two of them had half of the master-apprentice status.
All this, Zhou Chenhai never mentioned it in front of Yankong.
Yan Kong panicked in his heart, but he was calm and calm on the surface.
He replied calmly: "Senior brother Mingcha, this Zhou Chenhai is my personal disciple, I see that he is talented and intelligent, and I cherish his talents, so I personally taught him the Tao. I don't know why Senior Brother asked about him?"
Taiqing ignored Yankong's question, and he continued to ask, "Hmph! You answer honestly, what did you teach him?"
Yan Kong replied: "I passed on his own sect's introductory mental method and basic martial arts moves. But his body was weak, and his Origin True Qi hadn't grown much, so I didn't teach him any further. ”
"Then do you know that his constitution is cold?"
"Naturally, I know that it is precisely because of this that I don't dare to teach him more about his cultivation methods, for fear that his body will not be able to bear it. ”
"This kid is very smart, and I cherish him very much. Now I have been conditioning his body, but his cold body is too difficult to heal, and I am still trying to think of other ways. Senior brother, don't you suspect that I taught him the Evil Sect?"
"Yes or no, you know it in your heart! The yin qi in this doll's body is growing day by day, if you are really conditioning his body, how can this be such a situation?!"
Thoughts flew in Yan Kong's mind: "It seems that he doesn't know the existence of the Phantom Yin True Scripture yet, and I will deceive him first." ”
Taiqing said again: "You must have told him not to reveal the evil arts he learned, this doll kept his promises, and refused to confide in a word no matter what." He must have listened to the rhetoric of this despicable man, you say, yes and no?!"
After hearing this, Yankong fell to his knees with a pop.
"Senior brother is wronged!"
"You ......"
Taiqing didn't expect him to be so disrespectful and willing to kneel.
"This kid is very unjust! This kid is very gifted and has a good temperament, and if it weren't for his different physique, I would have passed on what he had learned all his life. In the past few years, several of my beloved disciples have passed away one after another, and I am deeply saddened. Fortunately, Zhou Chenhai was by his side. I was comforted. ”
Yankong said as he raised his sleeve and wiped his tears.
"I want to cure him of his cold disease so that he can become a dragon as soon as possible. I've tried my best, but unfortunately I still can't suppress the growth of yin qi in his body. ”
"But I didn't give up there, I plan to go down the mountain in a few days to seek tantric teachings, and then heal the child when he returns to the peak. Oh my God!"
Taiqing was embarrassed, and he said to Yankong: "You get up first!
"Senior brother believes me, but what's the use of me getting up?"
Taiqing pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll believe you once." In the future, if I find out that you have half a lie, I will slap you to death!"
"Senior brother, test me! If I have half a lie, I will be burned by the fire!"
Taiqing saw him swear a poisonous oath, and his anger decreased slightly.
He continued: "Right now, this doll has a great yin qi, if it can't be cured again, it will not be far from death." You gave me everything you could to save me. Do you understand?"
"Senior brother, don't worry, I will do my best!"
Tai Qing glanced at Yankong coldly, turned around and turned into a wisp of green smoke, dissipating into the air.
It took a long time before Yankong dared to get up. He stood in the courtyard for a while, suddenly clenched his fists, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
He muttered to himself, "In a few months, I'll be able to make it." When the time comes, even if the old man is too high, I can still return the color!"
............
A month later, the bamboo forest was still flying with swords. What was different was that the sword light on one side became more and more intense, and the light became more and more dazzling as time passed.
Suddenly, the sword light on the other side retreated and dissipated, and a young man appeared in the gradually dissipating sword light, standing quietly on the side, this person was Qin Xiao.
On the other hand, the sword light is getting more and more prosperous, and a pretty and moving figure dances with the sword light.
The sword light gradually joined together, condensed into a ball of light, and after a period of calm, it turned into hundreds of sword lights and spread out, slashing dozens of green bamboos around it. Du Shiyao slowly fell in the air, her face beaming.
"I've succeeded! It's great that the Wind Chasing Shadow Sword has been promoted to the Stepping Swallow Realm!"
Du Shiyao was too excited, and the whole person threw herself into Qin Xiao's arms and gave a big hug.
After hugging it, he felt that it was inappropriate, and he hurriedly broke free, his face full of embarrassment.
Qin Xiao was smiling and calm, unable to see through his thoughts.
There was a long silence, and neither of them spoke.
After another moment, Qin Xiao spoke first: "If you don't know Chenhai, if you know me first." Perhaps, there will be different stories between us. ”
Du Shiyao's heart was pounding, and she didn't know how to answer.
"Well, everything will not go smoothly in life. Miss Du, farewell!"
"Wait!"
Du Shiyao stopped Qin Xiao.
"It's also great that we can also be confidants and help each other take care of each other in the future. ”
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "If you need it, I'm still willing to help." But I'm not going to be a confidant with you. I don't want a confidant. In two months, the sea will return, and then I will see you again. ”
After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he strode away.
Du Shiyao watched him leave, and she was a little reluctant in her heart.
"What's wrong with me? Could it be that in the month we have been together, my heart has changed?"
Du Shiyao quietly watched Qin Xiao's departing back, motionless.
In the distance, there was another person watching quietly, the immature young man who had only turned twelve years old and had just experienced the world, Du Yuanqing.
