Chapter 67: Night Training
Back in the room, Liu Zifeng couldn't help but want to laugh when he thought of the second senior brother. With the consistent image of the second senior brother Li Tiancheng on weekdays, he can be regarded as gentle and elegant, like a spring breeze. However, after this incident, I don't know how my fellow sects in the sect felt when they saw him again.
Although Du Qianye kept saying sorry to Li Tiancheng when he left, anyone could see that he couldn't help but smile on his face.
Liu Zifeng sat cross-legged on the bed, abandoning the distracting thoughts in his heart to meditate. Tomorrow is another round of competition, with Fang Yanqi's ability, the afternoon competition should not be a problem, and the next one is the duel between Liu Zifeng and him. Thinking of the day and night banquet, Fang Yanqi unwillingly made an appointment to fight, and that superior posture, Liu Zifeng felt unhappy in his heart.
It's just that, with his current Qingxia Realm fivefold Taoism, it doesn't seem to be an opponent at all, and he happily agreed that day, completely holding a breath of qi in his heart and nowhere to release, and thinking about it afterwards, Liu Zifeng also felt that he was really too impulsive at that time. However, since the matter has come to this point, anything else is a matter of later story, and there is nothing to say except for the hard competition.
With this thought in his heart, he could no longer concentrate and continue to meditate. I opened my eyes and looked at my right arm, feeling a bone-chilling feeling coming from my arm under my robe, and I felt a little relieved.
"What a recklessness...... If it was at the last minute, it would have been like this. Even if I lose to anyone, I can't fail this competition about my little sister......"
A low murmur came softly from Liu Zifeng's mouth, and at this moment he seemed to have made up his mind, and his face became resolute.
Standing up, Liu Zifeng looked at the sky outside the window, it was already the willows on the moon. Remembering what the third senior brother Du Qianye said at noon, he gently closed the door and walked towards Du Qianye's house.
......
The place where everyone in Luoyue Peak lived was a small courtyard, and Du Qianye's room was originally prepared for Master Ji Zhengfa. Usually few people come here, and only during trials will these rooms come in handy, so Du Qianye stayed here for a few days without anyone noticing.
Ji Zhengfa and Qin Shuyun naturally won't live here, and they can return to Luoyue Peak in the blink of an eye with the two of them, although this house is a spare, it is still idle, just left for Du Qianye to live in temporarily.
The moonlight is vast, and the temperature at night is too different from the day, and the willow wind even feels a little cold. The night wind on the mountain was much stronger than during the day, and he tightened his robe and looked at a large room in front of him, which was twice as spacious, and raised his hand to knock lightly on the door.
"Come in, junior brother. ”
Before knocking on the door, Du Qianye's voice suddenly sounded, and he already felt the people outside the house.
Liu Zifeng pushed the door in, and a large mahogany table was placed in the spacious hall, on which two teacups were steaming. Du Qianye put the teapot aside, turned his head and smiled at Liu Zifeng, who had just come in: "Little junior brother, I thought you forgot to come over, come and drink tea." ”
A hint of tea fragrance accompanied by water vapor permeated the whole room. Only then did Liu Zifeng realize that the third senior brother's house seemed to be colder than outside, and even the water vapor on the teacup could be seen clearly. However, the quality of this tea should be good, and even he, a layman, felt refreshed.
"Come, junior brother. This tea is not one of those rough things used by the Luoxia Sect to entertain guests, it was concocted by a friend of mine in Nanzeli, and ordinary people do not have this blessing. How about sitting down and tasting it?"
"Third Senior Brother, I'm ......"
Liu Zifeng walked into the house and looked at this third senior brother who had only seen him for two days with a smile on his face, perhaps because the senior brother and sister often chattered, and felt very cordial.
"Little junior brother, just say what you have to say, don't swallow it, this is not what a good man should be. In particular, we cultivators should be open-minded and open-minded. Oh, I'm not a normal Terran, that's what it means, anyway!"
Du Qianye looked at this little junior brother with a smile, and he didn't have a lot of words in the past two days, and he looked a little wooden junior disciple with some affection. Especially when he saw Liu Zifeng's resolute look, it was quite a bit like when he first entered the sect.
Liu Zifeng sat down in response, picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip of it in his mouth, and suddenly looked at the tea in the cup with some surprise, and said strangely: "Why is this tea so cold?"
Du Qianye looked surprised at him, and immediately laughed.
"How's it going? Isn't it the first time you've drunk this special tea? Let me tell you, this kind of tea is called 'Nanshan Kuki', and it has a unique taste of tea only when it is boiled with the coldest mountain spring water. If you soak it in ordinary boiling water, it is the most bitter thing in the world, and it will definitely make you cry bitterly. In this east-west direction, do you notice the water vapor that rises? These are the bitter flavors of Nanzan Kuqi, and when it comes into hot water, it will be mixed with the tea. ”
Staring at the tea leaves that were still floating and sinking in the teacup, Liu Zifeng was stunned. These are said to be tea, but how can they not be a person's life?
Some things may take a long, long time to slowly integrate into the body and taste less bitter, right?
After a long time, Liu Zifeng came back to his senses, looked at Du Qianye, who had not disturbed him all the time, and asked, "Third Senior Brother, I don't know what happened when you called me over?"
Du Qianye looked at Liu Zifeng for a long time, the smile on his face decreased slightly, and he said, "Little junior brother, before we talk about business, let's talk about something else." Let me ask you, are you from the Liu Clan's ghost clan?"
Liu Zifeng's complexion changed, looking at Du Qianye's unadulterated eyes, and nodded after a while: "That's right, I am indeed a member of the ghost clan." ”
Du Qianye had no surprise on his face when he heard this, and then said: "You don't have to worry, I can see your identity, and it has something to do with my own difference from ordinary people, these things are not a big deal." It's like saying that I, who also have the blood of the half-human snake clan, is only a half-demon, and it is much more miserable than you. ”
Liu Zifeng was stunned for a moment, but he heard several words from Du Qianye's mouth that he had never heard of, and asked, "Third Senior Brother, what did you say?"
Du Qianye looked a little emotional, turned his head not to look at him, picked up the teacup and blew the floating tea leaves, and took a small sip.
"Haven't you heard of it? I'm just a half-demon, not the kind of demon beast that your senior brother said I was talking about. When people of the Terrans and other races marry, the descendants of the offspring will occasionally appear to be of two bloods. Generally, this kind of offspring is not accepted by both communities. And I, the descendant of the Terran and the Snake Clan, have two bloodlines at the same time, but I don't belong to either race. ”
Although his words were flat, there was a faint sense of loss in them. An existence like Du Qianye, the world is big, but he doesn't know where to live.
"Third Senior Brother, no matter what, at least on the Falling Moon Peak, we all treat you as a brother. ”
Liu Zifeng felt sad for Du Qianye inexplicably, and thought about how he was not. Except for Falling Moon Peak, he also has nowhere to go now.
Du Qianye smiled when he heard this: "That's right, that's why I haven't given up." The pursuit of immortality is not my desire, for my own selfishness to climb the peak alone, even if it becomes what happiness is? I just hope that the people around me can get better, and I don't want to be a person who pulls my legs. ”
The deep and serious light in his gaze could be seen clearly by Liu Zifeng's side.
"Little junior brother, what are you cultivating for? for immortality?"
Du Qianye's words changed, his eyes fell on him, and he asked in a tone full of deep meaning.
Liu Zifeng shook his head and said word by word with a serious expression: "The reason why I cultivate the Tao is only to kill someone. ”
......
Shenyang Peak, not far from the people of Luoyue Peak, there is another courtyard that is about twice as large. In the center of the courtyard is a large house, about the same size as the house where Du Qianye lives, and the lights are still on at this time.
Inside the house, a few oil lamps emitted bright lights, and a beautiful woman of about thirty sat on the bed, looking at her face as the Xuanyu master of Xinghua Peak. There was also a petite figure standing next to the bed, motionless.
"Xitong, I called you over, do you know why?"
Master Xuanyu spoke softly, but he was a little worried in his heart. The woman standing straight in front of her was Song Xitong, who defeated the enemy with just one move during the day. With such a talented woman, Master Xuanyu has never had the idea of accepting apprentices, but after failing again and again, the idea has faded a lot. When the real person in charge asked about this matter today, she couldn't help but call Song Xitong over again.
"Yes. ”
Song Xitong's voice was a little ethereal, light and fluttering without a trace of weight, and it was like a breeze blowing in her ears, and she didn't know where.
Master Xuanyu sighed, looked at Song Xitong with some hope, and asked, "Then do you have any ideas?"
"No, I don't. ”
Song Xitong was still wearing the Xinghua Peak robe, and her amber eyes looked at Master Xuanyu without blinking, looking like an innocent little beast, and spit out three words in a daze.
"Hmm...... Then can you tell me what you came to Luoxia Sect for?"
Song Xitong finally had a little expression on her face, her good-looking eyebrows moved, and she said with some uncertainty: "I don't know." ”
Master Xuanyu almost fell, and the conversation with him felt like he had just experienced a big battle, and he said with some anger: "You go back, have a good rest, and there will be a competition tomorrow." ”
Song Xitong nodded, then turned around and left.
......
Luoyue Peak, Ji Zhengfa leaned back in his chair, looked at Qin Shuyun who came over with tea, and asked, "You hurried back to Xuanxin Pavilion, what happened?"
The tea leaves in the cup have just been washed away, and a smell of tea has entered my heart and nose. Qin Shuyun's face was a little ugly, and he said, "The sect was suddenly attacked a few days ago, broke into two people with advanced Taoism, and stole a treasure in the pavilion. ”
Ji Zhengfa's expression froze, and he said with some suspicion: "According to the normal situation, didn't those elders in the Xuanxin Pavilion make a move?"
Qin Shuyun shook her head and said with a serious face: "These two thieves have a profound realm, and the techniques they cultivate are not a common type among the Kyushu Great Sects. If it weren't for the fact that he happened to meet Elder Wing who had returned from outside when he was leaving, I am afraid that he would not have noticed it until now. ”
Hearing this, Ji Zhengfa suddenly remembered the matter between Luochen Zhenren and what he said about the wild land, and muttered secretly in his heart: Is there any connection between this?
Qin Shuyun didn't know what he was thinking, and said with a sad face on the side: "What's wrong with losing it, but I lost that 'Qingling Pure Platform', I originally planned to wait for the trial to end, and then I took Zifeng back to Xuanxin Pavilion, how can it be good?"
