In the early morning, the spring breeze is still cold.

Chen Mo was alarmed by the cool breeze, slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and opened his eyes.

After a night of cultivation, he was a little tired under the concentration of his luck and qi, and at this time he stretched his body for a long time, but he pulled the unhealed wound and made a move.

Taking a deep breath and looking at the slightly verdant mountains and forests outside the bamboo house, Chen Mo's eyes were full of comfort and slight surprise.

It's really good to have enough resources for cultivation, ordinary Linggu porridge is enough for him to save more than twenty days of hard work, this Linggu porridge is even more extraordinary, one night's effort, it is one or two times more effective than ordinary Linggu porridge.

However, Chen Mo felt that the help of the wick of the grass might be even greater, not to mention gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it could also make the spiritual energy within its range more lively, which was impossible for no matter how high-level the spiritual valley was.

This night, Chen Mo experienced for the first time that cultivation was so fast and simple, even if it was still not as good as those legendary geniuses who happened once in a thousand years and had extremely high spiritual root Dao quality, it also greatly shortened the distance between the two.

Checking the meridians in his body again, the joy in Chen Mo's heart was even greater. After a night of penance, he directly penetrated the fifth meridian, and the sixth meridian had also begun to impact. Although the more meridians you open up, the more difficult it is to open up new wine, but at this rate, if you want to break through to the second level of qi training, it will take you no more than ten days to achieve success.

He touched the wounds on his body, although there was still some pain, but Chen Mo knew that not only had his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds this night, but even these injuries had been greatly improved under the nourishment of a large amount of spiritual energy, and they would probably be enough to heal in two days.

"Brother Mo, Brother Mo, are you up?"

At this time, there was a call from outside the house, and the voice was not Lao Zhang.

Chen Mo felt relieved, so he pushed the door directly and left, reciting the sentence "Lao Zhang is so early?", and then his face was pale, and he looked at Lao Zhang with doubts in his eyes.

The spring sun outside the house was just right, and there was a short female disciple next to Lao Zhang, who had always been alone.

The female disciple didn't look very old, and her chubby little round face was quite attractive, and when she saw Chen Mo who opened the door, her big round eyes suddenly bent into a crescent moon.

"This is?" Chen Mo was a little surprised, and asked Lao Zhang.

Hearing this, Lao Zhang, who had always had something to say, scratched his head embarrassedly and introduced:

"This is my niece Yuan Xiaoxiao. ”

"Hello Senior Brother Chen. The female disciple known as Yuan Xiaoxiao was quite good at coming to things, and she gave a salute respectfully, and the smile on her face was sincere and kind, very cute.

"Just call me by name. Chen Mo raised his eyebrows, and after returning the salute, his expression was quite surprised, "You still have a niece?"

"yes. Lao Zhang nodded, his face full of wry smiles, "This kid just started last year, let me see... It seems to be a little later than you, and it should be called Brother Mo and your senior brother. ”

"She, she is stubborn by nature, and she will not restrain herself when she enters the Immortal Gate, unlike Brother Mo'er, who is willing to work hard, she has not even broken through the first layer of Qi cultivation this year. ”

"This kid is used to messing around, and those senior brothers and sisters also love to play with her, and rarely run to me, Brother Mo, you haven't seen it yet. ”

After listening to Lao Zhang's words, Chen Mo understood, nodded at him, turned around and went to the house to take out the wine and a small bag left by Lao Zhang, and said with a smile:

"Why are people willing to play with you as a boring old man?"

He joked about Lao Zhang, handed the small cloth bag in his hand to Yuan Xiaoxiao, and said:

"Let's take this as a greeting gift. ”

Yuan Xiaoxiao opened it and found that there were about two taels of Linggu inside, and her face was full of surprise and surprise, after all, an outer disciple like her, there was no Lingtian to take care of her on weekdays, and there were very few opportunities to get Linggu, how could she not be happy.

"I can't help it!" Lao Zhang hurriedly stopped, "You kid, how can you accept other people's things casually?"

Chen Mo smiled, waved his hand and said, "It's out of the way." ”

"Hey!" Lao Zhang also sighed with a smile, knowing that Chen Mo was out of kindness, he was slightly moved in his heart, even hey, who was an uncle, had not given his niece so much Linggu in a year.

Glancing at his smiling niece, Lao Zhang's mouth began again: "Brother Mo, you don't know, this child didn't come to me today, she heard from me about your deeds of being on the top list in Linggu during the Spirit Sacrifice Festival, so she had to pester me to bring her to see you." ”

Hearing this, Chen Mo felt even more strange in his heart, and smiled bitterly, when did he, a guy who was not even half a Lingzhi boy, become the object of admiration of others?

"It's okay, I'm about to go to the Hidden Spirit Pavilion, if Senior Sister Yuan hasn't been there, I can take her for a visit. ”

"Thank you, Brother Chen!"

Without waiting for Lao Zhang to stop him, Yuan Xiaoxiao agreed.

From the moment she saw Chen Mo, she looked at his face fixedly, as if she wanted to see the flowers, she always looked at her twice, and she had to smile helplessly.

No longer chatted, said goodbye to Lao Zhang, and the two went down the mountain along Cuiping Peak.

Like Lao Zhang, his niece is also very talkative, chattering with Chen Mo along the way, asking questions such as whether it is difficult to plant Linggu, how to take care of it, and so on.

Today, Chen Mo was in a good mood, and this Yuan Xiaoxiao was indeed very likable, so he slowly narrated his experience to her, who listened to it with longing in his eyes, and kept muttering, "When I also have a piece of Lingtian." ”

However, the affairs of Linggu were complicated, and Yuan Xiaoxiao, who was as lively as a frightened bird, quickly lost interest, and the conversation somehow turned to Chen Mo's senior brother Ye Piaoling, and all kinds of wrong questions came out one after another, making Chen Mo not know how to answer.

This little girl said that she wanted to see herself, but according to Chen Mo, I am afraid that the drunkard does not mean to drink, but the real purpose is to find out all kinds of strange things about her senior brother from herself, so as to make a conversation.

Senior Brother Chen Mo didn't know much about it, so he had to pick and choose and deal with the past.

The two chatted and chatted, and they could already see the Hidden Spirit Pavilion.

Xu is spring has already begun, and there is not long left for Lingtian to sow seeds again, and most of the disciples who went out to perform tasks have returned to Xianmen, and there are more people coming and going on the road.

Yuan Xiaoxiao's popularity is indeed very good in Xianmen, and there are people who keep greeting her with smiles along the way, what makes Chen Mo feel a little embarrassed is that after some of them recognized themselves, the smiles on their faces immediately decreased a little, stopped talking, and even avoided them directly with a calm face.

Although Chen Mo had already known that his reputation had never been very good in Xianmen, but he had never seen such a situation when he met people ordinarily, could it be that there was a reason why Yuan Xiaoxiao was by his side?

Xu saw that Chen Mo was confused, Yuan Xiaoxiao leaned over mysteriously and said:

"Brother Chen, did you come back with Senior Sister Zhou a few days ago?"

As soon as she heard Senior Sister Zhou's three words, Chen Mo's heart jumped suddenly, his steps paused, and he looked at Yuan Xiaoxiao, I don't know where she knew about this?

"Brother Chen, don't pretend anymore, the door has already spread and everyone knows about it. Yuan Xiaoxiao waved his hand and said to Chen Mo.

This made Chen Mo even more puzzled, when he returned to the mountain gate that day, although he was seriously injured, he still remembered that he was coerced back by Zhou Qingxuan's light veil, and he didn't see half a figure along the way, how did this matter get out?

After all, according to what Zhou Qingxuan said, her life was borrowed by her, and she had already let herself do it herself, so that there would be no more adhesion, but now it has spread in the door. Chen Mo didn't know what those people would say about himself and Zhou Qingxuan, but he knew that the rumors must not be so pleasant, if they reached Zhou Qingxuan's ears...

Thinking of this, Chen Mo couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, touched his nose, and didn't know when he was covered with fine sweat, and immediately suppressed his anxiety and asked:

"Senior Sister Yuan, do you know who spread this matter?"

"Know!" Hearing this, Yuan smiled and smiled, nodded heavily, pointed to his nose and said, "Of course it's me!"

Chen Mo was stunned on the spot, his eyes were strange, his mouth was slightly open and he wanted to say something, but he pointed at Yuan Xiaoxiao, who was indifferent, and couldn't say anything for a long time. In the end, I had to sigh in vain, and the emotions in my heart were complicated, and I didn't know if it was anger or something else.

"I was tired of playing that day, resting on the crooked neck tree not far from the mountain gate, didn't I see Senior Sister Qingxuan bring Brother Chen back? Senior Sister Qingxuan, although I don't like to talk to people, but I still take good care of me, I have never seen her with others for so long, but Brother Chen, you..."

The little girl was still babbling and chattering, and the rumors about others seemed to her to be amusement, and even to show off, and she did not take it as a reason.

Chen Mo on the side didn't have the heart to continue listening to her, but he looked at Yuan Xiaoxiao's little round face and was slightly stunned, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

But one thing is certain, if it weren't for Lao Zhang's inability to wipe his face, he really wanted to return the Linggu that was given to Yuan Xiaoxiao immediately.
