While enjoying the scenery along the way, the three of them chatted about some landscape things, and between talking and laughing, they had long forgotten the unpleasant things that happened before.

Qiao Yuan has a better understanding of the two lovely girls, Mingruo is resolute and strong on the outside, but she is sensitive and weak on the inside, and she is simple and kind, and Mingluo is even simpler, both on the outside and on the inside, she is a simple little girl who is as clean as a blank sheet of paper.

When the three of them talked about Qiao Yuan's childhood, Mingruo and Mingluo realized that Qiao Yuan was an orphan, and their faces showed apologies, and the atmosphere was dull for a while.

"I don't know who my father and mother are, it was Grandpa Xiao who raised me. ”

Qiao Yuan smiled directly, as if he didn't care about who his father and mother were.

"I'm sorry. ”

Mingluo lowered his head and bit his lower lip, the expression on his face seemed like he was about to cry out in the next moment.

"Mingluo, it's okay, I've never been unhappy because I don't have a father. Grandpa Xiao is my relative, and in my eyes, he is my own grandfather. ”

"When I was a child, I would ask Grandpa Xiao who my father and mother were, and why everyone else had a father and mother, but I didn't. When I grew up, I never asked again, and even if I knew, they gave birth to me and abandoned me, but they also gave birth to me, and I couldn't repay it. ”

"And Grandpa Xiao has nurtured me, he is by my side, and I can't repay him, as long as I can make him happy and be by his side, I will be satisfied. ”

The group had already walked halfway up the mountain, and the early sun in the east had gradually climbed to the horizon, and the soft sunlight swayed on Qiao Yuan's face, reflecting the resolute and gentle smile on his face.

The words he said made Mingruo and Mingluo's hearts tremble, and they knew a little more about this resolute and optimistic young man.

The two of them have been the pearls of their parents since they were children, and they also have a grandfather who loves them very much, both life and cultivation are smooth sailing, and they dare not imagine the situation after losing their parents and grandfather.

Mingruo and Mingluo gradually felt a little distressed in their hearts for this young man with a delicate appearance and a resolute and optimistic heart.

While everyone else was at home with his parents for lunch, the boy might be picking wild fruits in a dense forest tree to satisfy his hunger.

While everyone else was at home drinking tea and playing chess with his parents, the teenager might be playing with the fish in the river.

"Qiao Yuan, when the Hidden Immortal Sect comes to me after you are sixteen years old, I will explain to my grandfather that with your physique, you will definitely be cultivated in the sect. ”

Ming Ruo took a deep breath, as if he had been struggling for a long time, and finally made up his mind, and said slowly with his lips open.

Don't look at it as just a sentence, but this word contains a promise, which puts Mingruo under tremendous pressure.

The Hidden Immortal Sect is not an ordinary sect, it is rumored that this sect is mysterious and unpredictable, no one knows where its sect is, and this sect once had a great connection with the long-disappeared immortal world.

The first rule of the Hidden Immortal Sect is that disciples are not allowed to contact monks from the outside world, they must not say that they are disciples of the Hidden Immortal Sect, and they must not tell where the Hidden Immortal Sect is located.

However, these Mingruo didn't tell Qiao Yuan, she thought that Qiao Yuan was just a mortal, and it shouldn't be considered a violation of the door rules.

Qiao Yuan naturally didn't know how much pressure Ming Ruo was under when he said the "Hidden Immortal Sect", and how many stories there were behind it.

But Mingluo knew what Mingruo's three words meant, and suddenly his little face changed

Mingluo was just about to speak, but Mingruo waved her hand to stop her, staring at Mingluo with bright eyes.

Mingluo looked at Mingruo's clear eyes, nodded, and said no more.

Qiao Yuan didn't understand what the two sisters meant, and a bright smile appeared on his face, reflecting the rising sun and showing a sincere look.

"Later, I will go to the Hidden Immortal Sect to find you. ”

Qiao Yuan didn't know what the Hidden Immortal Sect represented at this time, but a promise at this time had changed the trajectory of his life, making his life even more cruel and tortuous.

Many years later, Qiao Yuan looked back at himself standing halfway up Qingfeng Mountain reflecting the rising sun, would he regret making a promise here.

Half an hour later, Qiao Yuan took Mingruo and Mingluo to Tie Mo's courtyard, handed over the big wild boar to Tie Mo, and informed Tie Mo of Mingruo and Mingluo.

Tie Mo actually knew about this scene with his divine sense, he knew that there was a formation shrouded hundreds of miles away from Qingfeng Village, in order to prevent the outside monks from breaking in, but now there were two groups of monks entering the formation, which showed that the loopholes in the formation were getting bigger and bigger, and the crisis was getting closer and closer.

However, these are not what he should consider, and the matter of sending Ming Ruo and Ming out of the formation has to wait for Xiao Fengqing to come back and see what he means, so he explained to Qiao Yuan, and looked at the two little girls, showing interest.

"Can you drink? I see you have good bones, why don't you try my beast bone wine?" ”

Qiao Yuan was even more excited than Ming Ruo and Ming Luo when he heard this, he knew the benefits of beast bone wine, and then he kept introducing the benefits of this beast bone wine to the two of them, and used his body to demonstrate while talking.

Mingruo and Mingluo were eager to try when they saw it, revealing a look of anticipation.

On the night of the moon and stars, in the small courtyard of the fence, the four of them were sitting around a table and were eating and drinking, Ming Ruo held a wine bowl and signaled to Tie Mo and Qiao Yuan, and then raised his chin, revealing his snow-white neck and drank it all, his heroic posture was not inferior to Qiao Yuan.

After Ming Ruo took a sip, he no longer touched the beast bone wine when he died, saying that Qiao Yuan was lying to her, and this wine was hard to drink.

Tie Mo looked at Ming Ruo bowl after bowl, the color of interest in his eyes became stronger and stronger, a kind smile appeared on his face, he nodded appreciatively, and then his eyes flashed, as if he had made up his mind.

In the middle of the night, Qiao Yuan and Ming Ruo were both drunk and unconscious, only Tie Mo and Ming Luo were more sober.

Tie Mo shook his head, it seemed that he was not happy, but there was no way, seeing that the two of them were lying on the table motionless, and then glanced at Mingluo, who showed innocent eyes, raised his hand and waved, a soft wind directly appeared, lifting the three of them up and sending them to Qiao Yuan's hut.

Qiao Yuan woke up the next day, only to find that he was sleeping in the same bed with Mingruo and Mingluo, and he was shocked, but before he could say anything, he felt abdominal pain, and immediately got up and ran out of the door.

After Mingluo woke up in a daze, she saw that Qiao Yuan was gone, and looked at Ming Ruo, who was still asleep, she got up and walked around Qiao Yuan's hut, looking east and west.

Because it was the first time for Ming Ruo to drink animal bone wine, according to common sense, he would have to sleep at least for a day or two, Qiao Yuan knew it, so he took Mingluo around the mountains and rivers in the past few days, and went to every household to eat and drink.

At noon on the third day, Xiao Fengqing returned to Qingfeng Village in search of medicine, and after Qiao Yuan heard about it, he went to see Xiao Fengqing as soon as possible, asked about the medicine search, and informed him about Mingruo and Mingluo.

"Grandpa knows, that little girl named Mingruo, grandpa saw that she had good qualifications, sorted out some meridians for her, and refined part of the beast bone wine in her body, she will wake up after a while, you can bring her to see me." ”

Qiao Yuan heard Xiao Fengqing's words, the joy on his face was overflowing, he nodded to Xiao Fengqing, turned around and walked towards his cabin.

He pushed the door and saw a beautiful girl lying on the bed, this girl's body was covered by a quilt, revealing only a heart-pounding pretty face, her eyes were closed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, as if she had dreamed of something very happy.

Qiao Yuan saw the corners of Mingruo's slightly curled mouth, and also smiled slightly, sitting on the edge of the bed with two eyes staring at her pretty face without blinking, as if he felt very comfortable looking at it like this.

After a while, Ming Ruo's eyes slowly opened, reflecting a delicate face.

Ming Ruo's eyes were wide open, and he looked at Qiao Yuan's eyes without blinking, Qiao Yuan was stunned when he suddenly saw Ming Ruo wake up, his eyes stared at Ming Ruo's eyes without blinking, and the two looked at each other, quite ambiguous.

After a few breaths, Qiao Yuan saw a hint of blush appear on Ming Ruo's delicate face, so he blinked and looked away.

Ming Ruo blinked, coughed dryly, and said with a hint of shame in his tone.

"What do you see, are you doing something to me?"

Qiao Yuanjian saw that as soon as Ming Ruo woke up and said such a thing, he was not prepared at all, and said without thinking with an embarrassed face.

"I saw that you looked good when you slept, so I took a second look. Who's doing something to you, I've just come in. ”

As soon as Qiao Yuan's words were finished, Ming Ruo's pretty face turned even redder.

She didn't expect Qiao Yuan to speak like this, and suddenly she didn't know how to speak, and both of them fell silent, and the atmosphere was quite embarrassing.

After a long pause, Qiao Yuan remembered that Xiao Fengqing was still waiting for them, so he spoke.

"Mingruo, my Grandpa Xiao is back, let's go meet him, he can send you home. ”

When Ming Ruo heard Qiao Yuan's words, there was an excited look on his face, but he was faintly reluctant in his heart.

Qiao Yuan walked away from the door, called Mingluo, who was playing outside, and walked for a while to the bamboo house under the pine tree.

There is a bamboo table in the hall of the bamboo house, and a pot of freshly brewed tea is placed on the bamboo table, and the fragrance of tea overflows to make people feel calm.

There were four bamboo chairs around the bamboo table, and on the bamboo chair directly opposite sat a white-haired old man with closed eyes, who was Xiao Fengqing.

"Sit down!"

Xiao Fengqing opened his eyes and said with a kind smile.

Qiao Yuan walked in with a smile and sat on the right hand side of the white-haired old man, Ming Luo walked over and sat on the left hand side of the white-haired old man, and Ming Ruo sat opposite the white-haired old man.

"I don't know where the two little friends are taught? The old man also traveled all over the world when he was young, so he may know your parents. ”

As soon as Qiao Yuan sat down, he skillfully picked up the teapot and filled the teacups of the four people, and before he could speak, Xiao Fengqing asked Mingruo with a kind smile.

"The seniors forgive their sins, the younger generations are really small sects in the mountains and fields, and they can't get into the hall of elegance, and the seniors are profound, and they must never have heard of it. ”

Ming Ruo's face showed a respectful expression, and he was quite cautious in everything he said.

As soon as Ming Ruo entered the door, she saw that the old man was just a mortal, but since she woke up, she had a faint sense of depression in her heart, so she exuded her divine sense and swept the old man.

To her surprise, her divine sense could not sense the old man sitting in front of her at all, but what she saw in her eyes was that this old man was obviously sitting opposite her, which made her very shocked.

This kind of thing, she had heard her grandfather mention, only when a person's cultivation far exceeded their own, could their divine sense not be able to sense it.

This discovery immediately made Ming Ruo respectful, and his words and actions were very cautious.

"This old man is too unfathomable, and there is that mysterious black cat, Uncle Tie's beast bone wine, and a strange jungle hundreds of miles away, this place is by no means simple......"

Ming Ruo secretly thought about all the unusual things she had encountered since she came out of the sect, and after summing it up, she faintly felt that she seemed to have broken into an unusual place, but she was not worried, because she believed Qiao Yuan.

"Huh...... Little girl of the Ming family, the old man knows that you are from the Hidden Immortal Sect. ”

Xiao Fengqing picked up the teacup on the bamboo table, took a sip gently, looked up and saw Ming Ruo with a thoughtful face, smiled and nodded with appreciation, and pointed out the origin of Ming Ruo and Ming Luo lightly.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions on Ming Ruo and Ming Luo's faces changed, revealing surprise.

After all, Ming Ruo is only a little girl who has just stepped into the cultivation realm, although under the guidance of her elders, she knows that she needs to be cautious in her words and deeds to survive in the cultivation realm, but compared to a person of Xiao Fengqing's age, she is obviously still 108,000 miles behind.

"Little friend, don't be nervous, the old man sees that the exercises you are practicing are the Six Extremes Ming King Gong, so he naturally knows that you are from the Ming family of the Hidden Immortal Sect, and you are also a disciple of the lineage, otherwise you would not have started practicing this kind of exercises so early. ”

Xiao Fengqing smiled slightly, his tone was soft, and the words he said fell on Mingruo's ears like a shocking thunder.

Ming Ruo only now realized that the kind old man in front of him was far more terrifying than he imagined.

But the astonishment on her face had not faded, and Xiao Fengqing's next sentence had already sounded, which made her feel that the old man in front of her was becoming more and more mysterious and unpredictable.

"I don't know who Ming Zimo is?"
