Chapter Seventy-Seven: Descending the Mountain
Xuan Qi practiced in the Qing Palace on Zhongnan Mountain, but he didn't know the years, and it had been more than two years since he could go down the mountain. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
For more than two years, Qingxu only asked Dao Tong to send food to the outside of the cave where Xuan Qi practiced every day, but he never bothered Xuan Qi, and naturally he didn't know what kind of exercises Xuan Qi was practicing, and it took so long to practice. If it were someone else, maybe they would be suspicious and covet the exercises practiced by Xuan Qi.
At this time, it was already the scorching heat of June, and when Xuanqi went down the mountain, Qingxu was alone, leisurely sipping tea under a banyan tree, reading scriptures. When Xuan Qi approached, Qingxu didn't notice it, until he saw the shadow in front of him, Qingxu came back to his senses, and when he looked up, it was Xuan Qi.
Qingxu was overjoyed, but he also felt a little surprised, he had always had a keen spiritual sense, but when Xuan Qifang came over, he didn't notice it. took a closer look, but found that Xuan Qi's eyes were like a secluded pool, and his spirit was introverted, and he couldn't see the depth of Xuan Qi anymore.
Qingxu asked Xuan Qi to sit down on the stone bench, but he took an empty teacup, poured tea full of water, and handed it to Xuan Qi with one hand. Xuan Qi stretched out his hand to take it, but found that there were fluctuations in internal force in the cup. When he looked up and saw the smile in Qingxu's eyes, he already understood that Qingxu was going to try his skills.
Xuan Qi smiled slightly, but he was not in a hurry, the three fingers that grabbed the cup did not move at all, but he flicked his ring finger on the cup lightly, and the internal force penetrated the teacup. Qingxu suddenly felt that the teacup moved, and a pure internal force passed through the teacup and passed to his hand, and the tiger's mouth was slightly numb, but he couldn't grasp the teacup anymore, so he could only let go of the teacup at the moment.
Xuan Qi brought the teacup to his lips and drank it all, but from beginning to end, the tea in the teacup did not spill a drop. Qingxu was a little shocked, but he didn't expect that Xuanqi's internal power was so pure, and the person who could be defeated by himself in three moves and two styles more than three years ago was now far above him.
"Xuanqi Xiaoyou, it's really extraordinary! Old Dao is willing to bow to the wind!" Qingxu finished speaking, and he laughed heartily.
Xuanqi was naturally happy that his skills had made great progress, but in the face of Qingxu's elders who had defended him several times, he didn't dare to hold it up: "Qingxu's predecessors have won the award." Xuanqi also thanked Qingxu's predecessors for lending out the cave mansion in order to succeed in his cultivation. Xuan Qi said, and got up and thanked Qingxu.
Qingxu waved his hand to signal Xuan Qi to sit down, and said, "Xuan Qi Xiaoyou don't have to be polite! In the future, you might as well be like the frost girl, and also call the old Taoist uncle!"
Xuan Qi responded, and immediately asked about the situation in the past two years, and Qingxu informed Xuan Qi of what he knew.
Since Xuan Qi entered the mountain behind the Shangqing Palace to practice, Xia Xingyun has found Xia Chongxiao and the four people. Previously, several people had come to the Shangqing Palace many times, wanting to see Xuan Qi, and seeing that Xuan Qi was practicing hard, they didn't bother Xuan Qi.
A month ago, Xia Xingyun and others also brought news, saying that they would go to Cangzhou on August 16 to celebrate the 80th birthday of Chen Longbin. Counting the days, there are still about two months before Chen Longbin's hero's birthday. Qingxu suggested that Xuan Qi might as well go to Chen Longbin's mansion and wait for Xia Xingyun and his party.
Xuan Qi asked about Xia Xingyun and the others tracking Che Yunfei, but Qingxu didn't know anything, and said that Xia Xingyun and the others didn't tell him, so he could only wait for Xuan Qi and Xia Xingyun and the others to meet before asking each other.
In the rivers and lakes, if it is said to be a big event, it was more than a year ago, but the "Nine Shadows Temple" that appeared in the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago has reappeared in the rivers and lakes. The "Nine Shadows Temple" changed its previous practice of slaughtering entire gangs at every turn, and instead took the initiative to hide its traces and carry out assassinations. Over the past year or so, more than 30 masters of the rivers and lakes have been assassinated by the "Nine Shadows Temple".
The heroes have no good way to deal with the evil deeds of the "Nine Shadows Temple" for a while. This time coincides with the 80th birthday of Chen Longbin, but he deliberately invited colleagues from the rivers and lakes, and it was also to discuss how to deal with the "Nine Shadows Temple".
Speaking of which, Qingxu even specifically mentioned the assassination methods of the "Nine Shadows Temple", which actually had some similarities with the killers of the "Dark Star Pavilion", and it was expected that this "Nine Shadows Temple" and the "Dark Star Pavilion" must be in the same stream.
Xuan Qi grew up in the "Dark Star Pavilion" since he was a child, and he still has a trace of affection for the "Dark Star Pavilion". Although all kinds of signs show that the pain of separation of flesh and blood suffered by his family for more than ten years, as well as the disaster of the "Tianshan Blue Flame Valley", it is not unrelated to the "Dark Star Pavilion".
After all, the two sides have come to the opposite side, Xuan Qi sighed secretly, but remembered that Xuan Si, who had been missing for more than three years, but Yiren didn't know where he was now?
After understanding the situation, Qingxu said that he would set off in the near future and go to Cangzhou to celebrate Chen Longbin's birthday and invite Xuanqi to go with him. Xuan Qi thought that Zhongnan Mountain was located in the Qinling Mountains, and it was not too far from the valley where he and Xuan Si lived in seclusion, so he decided to take a look while there was still time. This matter is not good to talk to Qingxuming, so I have to find a reason to shirk it.
Early in the morning of the second day, Xuan Qi said goodbye to Qingxu and traveled all the way south, heading towards the valley.
Along the way, looking at the sea fishing documents of himself and Xuan Si that were still posted, Xuan Qi couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Fortunately, it has been a few years now, and Xuan Qi's appearance and temperament have changed a little, which is very different from the portrait on the sea fishing document that has been changed many times. Along the way, although there was an investigation by the government, they all passed the customs safely.
Xuan Qi touched the half of the treasure map in his arms, thinking that when he returned to the capital again, he said that he would not return this treasure map to the Zhenbei Palace.
After several days of traveling south, we finally arrived at the valley. Xuan Qi emerged from the waterhole, but the situation in the valley was no different from when he returned to the valley three years ago, and it seemed that Xuan Si had never come back again.
Xuan Qi thought about the sweet days of the two in the valley, but he was a little sad. In the past three years, is Xuan Si still okay now? Are you fat, or are you thin? Where are you?
Xuan Qi shouted Xuan Si's name loudly to the sky of the Desperate Valley, and the only thing that could answer him was the echo of the cliff. Xuan Qi lay on the grass dejectedly, looking at the small sky in the valley, tears had already slipped down from the corners of his eyes.
It wasn't until noon on the second day, when the sun shone into the valley and fell on Xuan Qi's face, that Xuan Qi stood up. His eyes swept over everything in the valley, and Xuan Qi secretly swore that he must find Xuan Si.
After eating two kiwis, Xuanqi reorganized his spirit and came out of the waterhole.
After discerning the direction, Xuanqi went all the way to the east and decided to go to Cangzhou via Xiangyang and Kaifeng to meet Xia Xingyun and others.
