The night is melting, the cool breeze is blowing, the frogs and cicadas are chirping, and there seems to be a different kind of harmony in the noisy chaos.

The land of the Northern Desert has always been known as bitter cold, and even on a midsummer night, it still makes people feel a little chilly. Somewhere thousands of miles north of the Five Light City, under a mountain cliff, there are many houses connected here. The houses are based on the hardwood of the nearby forest, the walls are made of stout bamboo knots, and the roofs are held in place with broad-leaved bamboo strips, which is unique to the inhabitants of the Northern Desert. Although the construction of this house seems simple, ordinary people also need to put in a lot of hard work. What's more, the wood is extremely hard after being roasted by the flames, and it also emits a strange smell that makes the fierce beasts in the vicinity dare not approach.

It was late at night, and there was a burning bonfire except for one of the houses, and the rest of the room was silent, and occasionally a few beasts howled from the depths of the forest, but they did not dare to approach it. After all, this is the territory of the Mu Clan, one of the five clans, and although the Mu Clan people rarely embarrass these fierce beasts, they also do not use them to fight their teeth.

The bonfire burned quietly, and at this moment, the light of the fire was reflected on the two figures sitting in front of them. One of the figures had a withered face, eyes closed, and was silent in a wide robe with various strange runes printed on it. The other figure had a serious expression, dressed in plain cloth, and there seemed to be a fire beating in his pupils.

"Priest Qingluo, I heard that the Cold Heaven Clan has made new moves in the past few days, but is there such a thing?"

The man in cloth looked at the bonfire, his face did not show joy or anger, and suddenly asked the old man with his eyes closed. Listening to his voice, this old man seemed to be the high priest of the Mu Clan.

The old man remained silent, as if he had turned a deaf ear to what was outside his body. After a few more moments, he stood up quietly and felt a wooden cane beside him. At this time, the eyes of this Qingluo priest were pitch black, and he said in a low voice: "Hantian Clan...... I don't know what they want to do......"

The cloth-clothed man frowned, obviously remembering something bad, and said slowly: "Since the division of the six clans more than ten years ago, the Hantian clan has always been mysterious and unwilling to show people, if it weren't for the turmoil in the clan at the beginning, the Hantian clan would definitely be able to command the five clans." However, it was also because of that incident that everyone in the five clans was in danger and did not dare to agree with the Hantian clan, which led to the current situation. Right now, the Cold Heaven Clan is moving again, could it be that there is something to discover?"

Priest Qingluo's body shook for a moment, his cane propped up the ground, he raised his head and didn't know what to remember, and said lightly: "Such a situation is because his Hantian clan has eaten the evil fruit of himself, and his greed is infinite, otherwise how could he have come to this step?

The cloth-clothed man sighed, and then said: "Our clan should follow the actions of our ancestors, but a year ago, the Jin Clan and the Fire Clan were bewitched by the Cold Heaven Clan, and announced to the other clans that they would advance and retreat together with the Cold Heaven Clan. In such a situation, even if our Mu clan can unite the other two clans, we will not be able to compete with these three clans. What's more, I've heard that the Cold Heaven Clan has negotiated with the Tu Clan, and although no agreement has been reached in the end, it is not a good momentum!"

The night wind blew, and the firewood in the fire was about to burn out, and it was obviously bright for a moment, and then dimmed.

"Hehe, the Jin and the Fire...... These two old guys have been friends with the Hantian Clan for so long, and it is really hard to endure so long to rebuild the old friendship with the Hantian Clan!"

Priest Qingluo smiled lowly, but there was a sense of gloom, which sounded a little harsh, like a night crow in the forest. When the cloth-clothed man heard this, his expression was suddenly a little surprised, and he said strangely: "Lord Priest, the Jin Clan and the Fire Clan, could it be that there is some conspiracy that cannot be achieved?"

Priest Qingluo picked up a few branches and threw them into the fire, and suddenly a burst of green smoke rose up, and then he sat down by the bonfire again, and said slowly: "Patriarch, there is no need to worry about this matter, even if the Hantian Clan really turns against us, the Jin Clan and the Fire Clan will not dare to touch us at all." Over the years, although it has been claimed that our five clans are united, there have long been people with ill intentions who can't hold back and can't wait to make a stab, and this is the case with the Hantian clan. Moreover, the incident back then had already made the five clans wary, and they would never be able to return to the former alliance of the six clans no matter what. ”

The patriarch of the Mu clan, the cloth-clothed man, nodded when he heard this, and he understood a lot of thoughts, and said: "Indeed, the matter of the 'Han Silkworm Heavenly Maiden' back then was really appalling, and later the 'Han Silkworm Heavenly Maiden' disappeared, and it was rumored that it was his clan who rescued him, and then his whereabouts were unknown...... Lord Priest, could it be that the actions of the Cold Heaven Clan this time are related to the 'Cold Silkworm Heavenly Maiden'?"

Priest Qingluo's expression moved slightly, his expression suddenly showed a little sadness, and his voice was hoarse: "That's a poor child, I hope she doesn't come back to wade this troubled water......"

......

The moon was as clear as water, but in the middle of the night, a black cloud drifted out of nowhere, followed by the silence of the wind, and a moment later there was a rumbling thunder. Soon after, a heavy rain began to fall.

In the quiet room, Liu Zifeng fell asleep on his back. On his side, Song Xitong wrapped his neck affectionately, his little head squeezed into his chest, and he was sleeping soundly.

Outside the window, the sound of rain is dense and connected. After a while, I saw Liu Zifeng's eyelids move slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes blank. After a long while, I saw a look in his eyes, and when he looked down, Song Xitong was still holding his body, like a cat. Thinking back to the scene in the dream, he couldn't remember anything at the moment, as if he had forgotten something important, only that he remembered that there was the same pair of amber pupils, and he looked at him with timidity and uneasiness.

Song Xitong slept peacefully, and Liu Zifeng pushed her little hand away, but it didn't take much effort this time. Gently covered the quilt, I saw him stretching, but he didn't feel much sleep. Gently out of the room, a few steps to the right is a long corridor, dark and dark. At this moment, except for this drizzle falling from the sky, it is as if the whole world is in a sleep.

The breeze blew, with a damp and warm coolness, with a diffuse mist, gently patting on the cheeks of the willow wind. Spreading out his palms, looking at the remaining scars on it, he couldn't help but think of the days when he did his homework at Luoyue Peak, and more, it seemed that he remembered a certain figure.

The dark clouds in the night sky gradually dispersed, and the thunder had long since disappeared, and they did not want to wake up the people who had fallen into a sweet dream in the middle of the night. It didn't take long for the menacing rain to go away, and as the moonlight fell again, only the remaining droplets of flowers and plants in the attic witnessed the rain.

Liu Zifeng was stunned, and he didn't notice a black shadow suddenly flashing from the night sky, and he didn't feel anything about it. The next moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind Liu Zifeng, and a hand reached out and slapped him on the shoulder, and a slightly familiar voice came from behind him.

"Silly boy, it's not good to rest at night, did you run out in the rain?"

Liu Zifeng was stunned for a moment, his body tensed instantly, and after hearing a familiar voice with some teasing, he relaxed. Then, I saw him turn around a little awkwardly, looked at the figure in front of him, and hesitated for a long time before he said softly: "Master...... Master, why are you here?"

The slender figure walked out of the shadows, picked up a small flower from the flowers, and then glanced at Liu Zifeng and said, "It's more pleasant to call my aunt than my aunt." ”

Liu Zifeng lowered his head and was silent, a little strange for Qin Shuyun to appear here inexplicably. Qin Shuyun saw that he was not in a high mood, and waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't force you, you kid is careful from the beginning, and even your mother has nothing to do with you." But can you tell me what you're thinking this time?"

Liu Zifeng was silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer this brainless question, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "I don't know either." ”

After a pause, Liu Zifeng raised his head and looked at Qin Shuyun, his expression was serious, he thought about it for a while, he originally wanted to ask the master and senior brother how they were doing, but after thinking about it, he felt that he was too talkative. I wanted to ask about Yue Zixuan's situation again, but I couldn't open my mouth anyway. In the end, I saw him speak: "Master...... Auntie, Master, are they all right......? You've come all the way here, but what's the matter?"

Qin Shuyun smiled slightly, looked at Liu Zifeng's stubborn expression, and suddenly wanted to tease him: "I, it's nothing, your master and they are still the same as before." Moreover, I was originally in Xuanxin Pavilion, and it was not very far from here, but I didn't expect to meet Zifeng by such a coincidence. ”

Liu Zifeng's expression froze, and he didn't know how to answer for an instant, standing in place with an embarrassed expression, unable to speak. Qin Shuyun looked at him and immediately felt amused, and then, she suddenly stepped forward and hugged Liu Zifeng into her arms, and a few cold tears fell on his neck.

"Zifeng, if you can't hold on one day, you must come to Xuanxin Pavilion to find me, I am very heartbroken to see you now......"

On her shoulder, Liu Zifeng's gaze was gentle, he closed his eyes, reached out to hug the only relative who cared about him now, and whispered, "Auntie, I will." ”

Qin Shuyun looked at Liu Zifeng, noticed the purple scales on his neck, and said thoughtfully: "This thing, it's what kind of 'snake scales', right?

After the scene, Liu Zifeng was a lot more kind to this aunt, and nodded: "That's right, it's indeed the 'Snake Scale', in the days of the trial, the third senior brother has already helped me seal the evil qi, and now it has no effect." ”

Qin Shuyun stared at it for a few moments, and then felt it for a while, then she was relieved and said, "Well, the evil qi has indeed disappeared, and this kid Qianye's methods are extraordinary, and he can solve this kind of troublesome thing, so I can rest assured." ”
