Volume 98 Peers
"Uncle Shi, why does Xu Xinchen want to go with us?" At the birthday banquet, there were many people, and Ming Xuan didn't say much, but after the birthday banquet, Ming Xuan immediately pestered Xingyun and asked what was going on.
"That must be because of our Gu Mingxuan, Senior Young Master Gu, who traveled thousands of miles to Liuyun Valley to celebrate his birthday on behalf of Elder Chang Feng, and in order to show their gratitude to you, they specially sent a beautiful woman to send them thousands of miles away!"
"Uncle Shi, I mean serious things, don't make fun of me. Ming Xuan said quite solemnly, obviously worried about this.
"Okay, it's because Master Jingyi has a letter to face Elder Changxin, so he specially asked Xu Xinchen to go to Qingyangmen to deliver the letter, that's all. Seeing Ming Xuan's serious face, Xingyun was not embarrassed to tease him anymore.
"This kind of thing, we can do it for you, why bother to let the family go for it themselves. Mingxuan asked puzzledly, the three of them walked together, Xu Xinchen is a woman after all, and he is going to Qingyangmen together, as far as Xingyun and Mingxuan are concerned, how can they be regarded as guests, and they must take more care of them along the way, and Xingyun is an elder after all, so the dots on the road naturally fall on Mingxuan, and he doesn't want to face Xu Xinchen with a smile every day.
"We are here as guests, how can others be embarrassed to bother us to deliver the letter, even if it is by the way, it will not be, besides, the letter is to present the Changxin elder, it can be seen that it is important, Xu Xinchen should go on a trip in person!" Xingyun and Mingxuan came to congratulate the birthday on behalf of Qingyangmen, and they were embarrassed to ask for the message to be passed on their behalf, this is a matter of etiquette, Mingxuan didn't think about it so much.
"Oh, that's right. Ming Xuan said quite dejectedly, it seemed that he was "in a catastrophe".
"I have also seen Xu Xinchen, this girl, although she looks a little cold on the outside, but she is still a first-class beauty, why are you so impatient with her?" From Ming Xuan's tone, Xingyun couldn't hear that Ming Xuan didn't have a good impression of Xu Xinchen.
"It's come to this, what's the use of talking so much?" Ming Xuan let out a long sigh and threw himself on the bed and didn't want to say anything.
Most of the cultivators don't like to be lively, after the birthday banquet, the disciples of various sects left one after another, and the Liuyun Valley, which was originally quite noisy, seemed to have returned to the purity of the past, in fact, if it weren't for Xu Xinchen's companionship, it is estimated that Xingyun would also leave on the same day.
"Uncle Shi, didn't you make an appointment with her to meet here in the morning, and now that the hour is about to pass, why haven't you seen her figure yet?" Mingxuan paced back and forth in the valley gate, his mouth kept purring, obviously a little anxious.
"People are girls, there may be a lot to clean up, it's normal to slow down, what's the big deal if you wait a while, but it's you, you usually look quite steady, how can you become impetuous, since yesterday?" Xingyun asked quite strangely, the bystander was clear, Ming Xuan's appearance was indeed a little abnormal.
"I ...... Do I have? I just ...... I'm just in a hurry to go back. Ming Xuan said hesitantly, but he did have some reflection in his heart, it seemed that since he heard that Xu Xinchen was going to go with them, he became inexplicably anxious, maybe he didn't want to get along with Xu Xinchen from the bottom of his heart.
"Then there's no need to rush it, you see, isn't that coming? While speaking, a beautiful figure walked out of the valley, and it was Xu Xinchen.
"Xingyun Dao Chief, I'm sorry, I'm late. Xu Xinchen arched his hand to Xingyun and said apologetically.
"It's okay, we've just arrived. Xingyun said happily, not caring at all, in fact, they had been waiting for a long time.
"Now that we're here, Uncle Shi, let's go!" Seeing that Xu Xinchen ignored herself at all, Mingxuan didn't bother to take care of her.
"Okay, then Miss Xu, can we go?" Out of Liuyun Valley, Xu Xinchen was considered a guest, Xingyun naturally had to be polite, from the side of proper etiquette, Xingyun could be said to have done a perfect job.
"Daoist, please wait a little longer. Xu Xinchen said apologetically again, his eyes kept looking at Gu Zhong, obviously waiting for someone.
"Well, it's a nice view, so it's okay to stay a little longer. Xingyun said with a smile, not making Xu Xinchen feel sorry and uneasy at all, and did it exquisitely.
"Now that Miss Xu has arrived, I don't know what else to wait for?" Ming Xuan didn't think so much about it, and asked directly.
"Sister Xu, Sister Xu, you wait for me!" As soon as Ming Xuan's words fell, a sweet voice came from the valley, and when he looked back, he saw Yi Jing rushing towards him with a large package.
"Sister Xu, you said you were going to wait for me, why did you leave first?" Yi Jing ran in front of them panting.
"I made an appointment with the Taoist chief to meet at the right time, and now that the time is almost up, I have to come over and say hello. Xu Xinchen argued, it seems that the reason why he came so late was because he was waiting for Yijing.
"Yi Jing, why are you here too?" Ming Xuan looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"I'll also go to Qingyangmen with you, I heard that Sister Xu is going to Qingyangmen to deliver a letter, I'm worried that she will be lonely on the road alone, so I pestered Elder Jingyi to go together. Yi Jing said proudly.
"You want to hang out yourself, but don't use me as a pretense. Facing Yi Jing, Xu Xinchen changed from the coldness of the past, and spoke quite relaxedly, it seems that he got along well with Yi Jing in the past.
"Okay, since we're here, let's go!" Xingyun's happiness is not much to do with one more person or one less, but because of Yi Jing's arrival, not only does Xu Xinchen have a companion, but also gets acquainted with Mingxuan, so everyone gets along more easily.
As the time approached, the sun in the east had quietly risen in mid-air, and under the warm sunshine of this spring day, the four of them began to walk slowly on the grass......
"Brother Xuan, why do we need to change our clothes, I think it's good to wear a Taoist uniform. Passing by Qingyue Town, Ming Xuan led them to the ready-to-wear shop and asked them to pick out a few sets of clothes that fit, but because the disciples of Liuyun Valley were usually dressed in Taoist clothes and rarely wore ordinary clothes, the clothes in the clothing shop were not designed for them, so they naturally looked more earthy, and Yi Jing was naturally reluctant to wear them.
"When you go out and walk the rivers and lakes, it's better to keep a low profile, if you wear a Taoist costume to swagger around, it will look too eye-catching, or not so eye-catching, although the clothes here are not very good-looking, let's wear them first, and when we go to the bigger cities, if there are good-looking clothes, we will change them." Mingxuan patiently explained to her, fortunately, Yijing was well-behaved, although she was reluctant, she still reluctantly put it on.
"Oh, well, isn't it okay to put on the Taoist uniform again when you get to the sect? This way you can show your identity, and no one will suspect that you are a thief. Yi Jing said with a smile, obviously there was something in the words, Xu Xinchen Bingxue was smart, and immediately blushed, glaring at Yi Jing fiercely, but did not speak, looking quite embarrassed.
"Okay, Yijing, don't make trouble, hurry up and pack up, it's not too early, and then you have to walk a long way in the deserted countryside, if you don't make the trip, you will miss the time for lunch." Seeing Xu Xinchen's embarrassed face, Ming Xuan was somewhat unbearable and hurriedly changed the topic.
......
The deserted suburbs between Gongcheng and Boiling City are full of stone mountains, due to the mining of ores, there have been many holes that extend with twists and turns, and one of them is the lair of Yao Zhiyuan's gang of robbers, but at this time, the robbers have lost their arrogance in the past, and they all cowered together, and they didn't dare to say a word, for no other reason, just because two young people, a man and a woman, had just come in, and they only used one move to restrain their big boss.
"Yao Zhiyuan, the good little master of Shacheng didn't do it, but he came all the way here to be a robber, you have a good life, but I have been looking for you for five years!" The man said with some yin and yang weirdness, and his words were full of sarcasm.
"Longyou Shoal was played by shrimp, Tiger fell Pingyang was bullied by dogs, Yao Zhihe, Yao Fang, you won. Yao Zhiyuan said bitterly.
"Fourth brother, what nonsense are you talking to him!Yao Zhiyuan, quickly hand over the Flame Bow!" Yao Fang was obviously even more impatient, and said sharply.
"At this point, I've taken it, but the Flaming Bow is no longer in my possession. Since they could find themselves thousands of miles away, Yao Zhiyuan also knew that they couldn't hide it.
"Hmph! If you didn't steal the Flame Bow, who else would you have, and at this time, you still have to be hard-mouthed! Do you want to see the Yao family's family law?" Yao Fang said coldly.
"I didn't deny that I had the Flaming Bow, but the Flaming Bow was lost. Seeing that the woman proposed the Yao family's family law, Yao Zhiyuan couldn't help but shiver and hurriedly said.
"Oh, let's hear it?" Yao Zhichun said with narrowed eyes and in such a strange tone.
"Four years ago, I robbed the caravan of the Li family in Gongcheng, only to be attacked by them in a counterattack, and while I was not paying attention, they attacked my cave, and the flaming bow was lost. Yao Zhiyuan let out a long sigh, if the Flame Bow was still in his hand now, he wouldn't have caught it himself.
"Fourth brother, do you believe his words?" Seeing that Yao Zhichun was silent, Yao Fang couldn't help but say.
"If he really has the Flame Bow in his hand, can we do it so lightly, and we have searched all over this cave, and there is indeed no trace of the Flame Bow, so we have to check the authenticity of it. Yao Zhichun was delicate and did not immediately veto Yao Zhiyuan's words.
"Okay, what should they do then?" Yao Fang casually pointed to the people who were trembling on the side.
"Just kill a bunch of waste, Te Duo said. Yao Zhichun glanced at everyone casually, and then took Yao Zhi away.
