"Yo, you're going to have dinner again today?"

Hearing that Jiang Nong and Nangong Chi made an appointment with the wine party, Shanhe immediately showed a smile:

"Uncle Shi, if you drink it like this, I'm afraid that the wine that will be transported up the mountain in two days will not be enough, right?"

"Hehe, have a few drinks, don't drink more, don't drink more. Just me, your master, and your Uncle Yuan, why can't you come?"

Since Jiang Nong's dantian recovered, Nangong Chi, who had accidentally injured Jiang Nong due to a martial arts competition, could be regarded as completely opening the knot in his heart. The relationship between the three brothers is much more harmonious than before, and now they not only see each other often, but also organize a dinner once or twice a week to have a good time.

After hearing the invitation of his uncle, although Shanhe also wanted to participate, he knew that something more important was waiting for him, so he refused:

"Thank you for your kindness, but the disciple still has work to do later, and I'm afraid I won't be able to participate. ”

"Do you still have work at such a late hour?" Jiang Nong said puzzled.

"Yes, yes...... Elder Tao's errand. ”

"Tao Xun?" Under the other party's reminder, Jiang Nong quickly remembered this matter, nodded and said:

"Oh, yes, yes, I remember, you still have an errand to do with the Academy. Okay, let's talk about it next time. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, that disciple left first!"

After saying goodbye to Jiang Nong, the mountains and rivers went all the way to the west.

When passing by the Discipline Temple, Shanhe did not enter, but continued to run towards the Spring Palace in the west. It wasn't until he arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Qin Xiaodou lived that he stopped.

With the sound of knocking, the wooden door creaked open, and it was Qin Xiaodou's senior sister Chunshan who opened the door.

After seeing Shanhe, Chun Shan smiled slightly, and invited Shanhe into the courtyard, and at the same time called out Qin Xiaodou, who was wearing pigtails.

"Brother Sanke, you came later than usual today, I thought you weren't going to come!" After complaining, Qin Xiaodou stuffed the lunch box in his hand to Shanhe:

"The food is almost cold, you should send it quickly. ”

"Alas, I practiced martial arts with Uncle Jiang today, and I was a little delayed. Hehe, I'll send it now, thank you, Xiaodou!" After smiling apologetically, Shanhe was just about to step away, when something suddenly remembered in his mind, and he turned around and asked:

"By the way, Xiaodou, it's going to be the five-year sky-breaking event soon, do you want to join me this time?"

After five years of cultivation, Qin Xiaodou, who has excellent talent, has been promoted to the second layer of the Tun Ladder under the training of his master Su Xi, and his progress is quite fast, so Shanhe will have this question.

"Of course I want to!, but ......" After nodding excitedly, Qin Xiaodou's face showed a touch of helplessness:

"But my master has already helped me find a good teammate two days ago! Alas, they are all senior sisters of the Spring Palace, one is on the ninth floor of the Tun Order, and the other is on the eighth floor of the Tun Order. She said she wanted to help me win the top three in this competition. ”

"Wow! is so strong?" Hearing this lineup, Shanhe was also startled: "Don't talk about the top three, there is a good hope of winning the championship!"

"Oh! strong is strong, but I actually want to be with you the most. It's a pity to miss me last time, I thought I had a chance this time...... But I was preempted by the master again!Alas, I'm sorry, Brother Sanke, I may not be able to be in a group with you this time. Qin Xiaodou sincerely apologized.

"Oh, it's okay, I'm relieved to have such a powerful senior sister to take you to the competition. Hey, then, won't we become rivals? When the time comes, please show mercy to Lady Qin's subordinates. ”

"Hey, hey, it depends on the mood of this woman! If you behave well, I'll spare you a fruit!" After making a few jokes with Shanhe, seeing that it was not early, Qin Xiaodou urged:

"Okay, don't delay today, the food is really cold when we talk about it again, you can send it quickly!"

"Yes, yes, then I'll go first. Thank you, Xiaodou, and we'll see you later!"

Under Xiaodou's reminder, Shanhe quickly left Su Xi's courtyard and turned his head and ran towards the discipline room.

After running along the winding mountain road for more than five minutes, Shanhe arrived at the duty room of the Discipline Academy.

As soon as he entered the house, he hugged his fists at a middle-aged man in a black robe, and said:

"I have seen Senior Brother Li, it's my turn to deliver food today. ”

"Is it Senior Brother Sanke? Hehe, I thought you had forgotten. I've got everything for you, so you can send it. While speaking, Senior Brother Li, who was in black robes, also handed a blue ring to Shanhe.

After taking the ring, Shanhe thanked him first, and then left the duty room, and ran all the way to the Zhenling Pagoda in the center of the sect.

Outside the walls of the Zhenling Tower, the disciples on duty recognized the mountains and rivers at a glance, and with a slight smile, they gave way to a passage and let the mountains and rivers enter the courtyard.

Walking to the Zhenling Pagoda, Shanhe took out a lantern-like key from the blue ring given to him by Senior Brother Li and inserted it into the keyhole, rotated it clockwise a few times, and soon opened the first iron door.

Then, he found a note from the ring and tapped the 13-digit number on the keyboard, opening a second red door.

After completing the first two processes, the third purple door appeared in front of the mountains and rivers.

Seeing this, Shanhe put his palm on the center of the gate, and used a special technique to gather a stream of internal breath and inject it into the gate. After waiting for more than seven or eight seconds, the third purple gate slowly opened.

Seeing that the three major doors had all been opened, Shanhe Fang put away the key and note, and stepped into the dim tower with his legs raised.

Although the Zhenling Pagoda is nine stories high, and there are dozens of rooms on each floor, there are not many prisoners who are actually imprisoned, and there are only about a dozen people in total.

The mountains and rivers ran from low to high one by one, and it only took more than 20 minutes. After he finished his "work" for the day, he came to the door of the "T-shaped Shen Fang" on the fourth floor, took out a golden token from the blue ring, and embedded it in the groove on the door.

After that, I heard a click, click, click, and the last door finally opened.

The size of this cell is not large, only about ten square meters in total. It was surrounded by bluestone bricks and tiles, and there was not even a single window.

With the light from the roof, Shanhe quickly walked into the house, sat down in front of a woman, and said with a sincere smile:

"Senior sister, I came to see you!"

Due to the long absence of sunlight, the skin of the mountain snow, who had been imprisoned for five years, was terrifyingly white.

I don't know if it's because of nutrition or because of her mood, she is just in her early thirties, and a lot of gray hair has appeared on her temples. Compared with the heroic woman five years ago, the mountain snow is really much haggard now.

Seeing her junior brother, Shan Xue was extremely happy in her heart, and she couldn't help but smile on her face, but she complained:

"Y-Why are you here again? Didn't I say it, don't keep running around here if it's okay! It's dangerous!"
