Chapter 18: Encounter

Song Daren was stunned for a moment, this voice lingered in his ears, and it was like a fairy music, and after a while, he woke up like a dream, turned around like lightning, and saw five or six female disciples standing behind him, and they were dressed under the Xiaozhufeng Sect in Qingyun Sect, which has always only accepted female disciples.

And the first to face them was a beautiful woman with a melon seed face, her hair was like a cloud, her skin was like snow, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. Zhang Xiaofan looked at the woman, and was about to turn around and ask which line of senior sister she was, but when he looked back, he saw that from Wu Dayi to Zheng Dali to He Dazhi, everyone had a strange smile on their faces, and their hearts moved, and then they looked at Song Daren's appearance, but they saw that this capable senior brother was smirking and looking stunned, as if he didn't know what to say. He thought about it for a while, and guessed the woman's identity.

Sure enough, He Dazhi and the others on the side were about to watch a good show, but Song Daren suddenly fell into the realm of dementia, and not only the people in Dazhufeng couldn't stand it, but even the female disciples of Xiaozhufeng on the opposite side covered their mouths and snickered. The beautiful woman standing in front of Song Daren had a slightly red face, and called out in a low voice: "Senior Brother Song." ”

Before Song Daren could react, He Dazhi, who was impatient, had already said: "Haha, Senior Sister Wen Min, you and I haven't seen each other for many years, how are you doing lately?"

Wen Minmei's eyes moved to this thin man and paused for a moment, then he smiled, "This is Senior Brother He Dazhi He, right?"

He Dazhi nodded again and again, and said: "It's in Xia, Senior Sister Wen is good at remembering xΓ¬ng, you and I have only met once in Yijiazi, and I actually remember it in Xia, which really flatters me." ”

Wen Min smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother He fought against a strong enemy in the last competition and showed his skills, I naturally remember it." ”

He Dazhi's face was red, in the last session of the Seven Veins Martial Arts, he met a master of Changmen Tongtian Peak in the first round of competition, although he tried his best, he was still defeated, but he was a man, and he smiled at the moment, and said: "Those old things, don't mention it, these superficial cultivation of the junior brother are far inferior to Senior Sister Wen and our senior brother." Speaking of which, since the last big test, our senior brother has been thinking about you all the time. ”

Wen Min's face was slightly red, but she didn't answer, she only glanced at Song Daren out of the corner of her eye, but the young junior sisters behind her had already laughed. Song Daren is a rough man, but at the moment he is embarrassed like a shy teenager, and hurriedly protests: "No, no, I ...... sometimes"

"What?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a young woman behind Wen Min on the other side, "Then you don't care about our Senior Sister Wen Min?"

Song Daren's heart jumped, and he secretly raised his eyes to glance at Wen Min, only to see that Wen Min was also looking at him, and his beautiful eyes didn't blink. He was anxious, and rushed out: "No, no, I have a ...... missing"

"Hah!"

Da Zhu Feng and Xiao Zhu Feng laughed together, especially the few young women behind Wen Min, who laughed especially brightly and loudly, causing the other disciples of the nearby veins to also take a few more glances here.

He Dazhi waited for everyone's laughter to stop for a while, and said to the women of Xiaozhufeng: "Senior sisters, in fact, what our senior brother means is this, he doesn't miss Senior Sister Wen Min, but he doesn't always worry about ......."

"What's that?" asked a female disciple of Xiao Zhufeng with a loud laugh.

He Dazhi glanced at the woman and said with a smile: "He remembered Senior Sister Wen once after a while, and read her name again after a while, so he said that he didn't worry about it all the time." ”

Everyone laughed, Song Daren glared at He Dazhi fiercely, but looked at Wen Min out of the corner of his eyes, only to see a smile on the corner of her mouth, but she didn't seem to be angry, she couldn't help but secretly feel a little happy in her heart, but she said in her mouth: "Senior Sister Wen, they just love to joke, you, don't care." ”

Wen Min smiled, turned his head and stopped the junior sisters behind him who were laughing and trembling, and then looked at him deeply, and said, "Then what do you think in your heart?"

Song Daren had a bitter face, and said "I, I, I" a few times in his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, looking at his appearance, the women couldn't help but laugh again. Wen Min shook his head, glared at him, ignored him, walked up to Tian Ling'er, pulled up her white jade-like palm, looked at her carefully, and said, "You are Senior Sister Ling'er, right?"

Tian Ling'er said curiously: "Yes." Senior Sister Wen, how did you know about me?"

Wen Min said with a smile: "You often come to our Xiaozhu Peak with Uncle Su Rusu to visit Master, we have known you for a long time." I haven't seen you for a few years, but I'm really getting more and more handsome. ”

Tian Ling'er held Wen Min's hand and said with a smile: "Where, how can I compare to Senior Sister Wen Min, your flower-like appearance," Speaking of this, she lowered her voice, leaned forward and whispered: "My senior brother can be fascinated by you for Senior Sister Wen." ”

Wen Min glanced at Song Daren, Song Daren immediately showed a smirk, she shook her head, and said in a low voice: "Your senior brother, what an elm head." ”

Tian Ling'er laughed out loud, and immediately felt that it was too late to meet this Senior Sister Wen Min, and when Wen Min pulled gently, Tian Ling'er followed her to the middle of the group of women in Xiaozhufeng, chirping and chatting a few words, and immediately became very familiar, laughter and laughter, and from time to time came out from the group of women, leaving Song Daren and others aside.

Song Daren stood aside, full of thoughts about stepping forward to talk to Wen Min, but he didn't know how to speak for a while, so he had to stand in place. Don't talk about others, even Zhang Xiaofan saw it in his eyes, and he also shook his head.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly heard Du Bishu beside him say "Huh" and said, "There are a lot of people again." ”

Zhang Xiaofan felt strange in his heart, and when he looked at it, his body suddenly shook. I saw a group of people walking in the distance, a total of more than 30 people, all dressed in white, heroic, in other words, arrogant. However, the first few people are extraordinary, especially the first one, who is dressed in white like snow, handsome and chic, who is Qi Hao if he is not?

Qi Hao!

Zhang Xiaofan stared at the group of people who came over, repeating the name heavily in his heart, and at the same time heard the fourth senior brother He Dazhi next to him suddenly laughed, and said in a low voice: "The Longshou Peak lineage is really a lot of people. ”

Qi Hao also saw the people of Dazhufeng at this time, and immediately walked over, and the people behind him also followed. Walking up to him, he arched his hand to Song Daren and smiled: "Senior Brother Song, you and I meet again." ”

Song Daren didn't dare to slack off, and replied: "Senior Brother Qi, you are also here, I don't know if you have participated in this big test?"

Qi Hao said with a smile: "Originally, the younger brother didn't want to participate, but the family teacher thought that the younger brother's cultivation still needed to be tempered, so he ordered me to participate, so he was cheeky and occupied a place in his own lineage." ”

Song Daren nodded and smiled: "This is very good, with Senior Brother Qi's talent, the winner this time is none other than you." ”

Qi Hao shook his head again and again, and said modestly: "Where is it, Senior Brother Song is too awarded." ”

The two of them were talking about the faΓ§ade, but Zhang Xiaofan's eyes widened and searched behind Qi Hao, and sure enough, within a moment, he saw Lin Jingyu, who was standing behind Qi Hao, also sweeping his gaze, obviously looking for something. The two looked at each other with great joy, and walked out at the same time, holding each other's hands, as if they had a thousand words, but they couldn't say it for a while.

After a long time, Lin Jingyu said, "Xiaofan, have you participated in this big test?"

Zhang Xiaofan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, my master is very good to me, and Kai En let me participate, what about you?"

Lin Jingyu said: "I also participated, hmph, what's so good about your dwarf master, I went to you two years ago, and he treated you like that......"

Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly said: "No, he is not like that, he was just angry that day." ”

Lin Jingyu and his childhood friends here rarely see each other again, and they don't want to let these boring topics disturb their moods. Changed the topic at the moment and said with a smile: "You kid, I haven't seen you for two years, but you have grown so tall?"

Zhang Xiaofan punched him and scolded with a smile: "What, you can grow up, don't you allow me to be tall?"

Lin Jingyu laughed, the two of them talked to themselves on the side, this time there was no teacher by his side, he said anything happily, and others didn't care about them. Just as he was talking, Zhang Xiaofan inadvertently looked back, but saw that Qi Hao didn't know when he saw Tian Ling'er and Wen Min's group of women standing aside, walking over to say hello, he felt a pain in his heart for no reason, and even his face changed.

Lin Jingyu saw it in his eyes and said, "What's the matter, Xiaofan?"

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said with a forced smile: "It's okay." It's just that even though he said that, his eyes were still looking at Qi Hao's side.

Qi Hao had already walked in front of Tian Ling'er and Wen Min at this time, he first greeted Tian Ling'er with a smile, and said, "Senior Sister Tian, do you remember me?"

Tian Ling'er had been happily talking to Wen Min and the others in Xiaozhufeng, when she suddenly saw Qi Hao suddenly appear, for some reason, her face turned red, and her voice became quiet: "Yes, Senior Brother Qi is good." ”

From a distance, Tian Ling'er's beautiful face was slightly red, and her big watery eyes were dreamlike at first glance, but this beautiful face was reflected in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes in the distance, and it was like a knife cut, and it hurt deep in his heart.

"Xiaofan, what's wrong with you, why did your face suddenly become so white?" Lin Jingyu didn't know why, and said with concern: "Are you sick?"

"No, it's okay, I'm fine. Zhang Xiaofan said in a low voice.

In the distance, Wen Min's mind was so keen, he looked at Tian Ling'er's appearance, and he had a rough idea in his heart, and said to Qi Hao at the moment: "Senior Brother Qi, why do you only recognize Senior Sister Tian, and you don't have our Xiaozhufeng sisters in your eyes?"

When she said this, all the women behind her coaxed, and Qi Hao hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Wen, where are you talking about this, how dare I snub the senior sisters of Xiaozhufeng so much?"

Wen Min chuckled lightly and said, "Senior Brother Qi will participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts again this time, presumably because he is determined to win?"

Qi Hao's eyes flashed, and he said: "Senior Sister Wen passed three levels in a row in the last big test, but unfortunately she was defeated by Senior Brother Xiao Yicai of Changmen, which is embarrassing. Presumably, after the jΔ«ng cultivation of Yijiazi and the careful cultivation of Master Shuiyue, now as the first master of Xiaozhu Peak, he must also be aiming for this big test crown. ”

Wen Min smiled and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, how dare I fight with you, Senior Brother Qi, and I can't afford the title of the first master of Xiaozhu Peak." ”

Qi Hao frowned and said, "Senior Sister Wen, you are too polite......"

Wen Min said with a smile: "No, the family teacher, Master Shuiyue, is a celestial person, my qualifications are dull, I can't get one or two of her old man's true inheritance, there are other genius sisters in the lineage, Senior Brother Qi should be careful." ”

Qi Hao's eyes were bright, but he smiled on his face and said: "This is better, I think the one who can make Senior Sister Wen bow down must also be a genius who is not born in the world, and the younger brother really wants to see it as soon as possible." ”

Wen Min chuckled, nodded, said no more, and pulled Tian Ling'er, who was not very reluctant, to the side.

At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded over the square, like thunder, and shook the audience. Hundreds of Qingyun disciples on the square looked up, only to see a red light shè coming, stopped above the square in a moment, a red sè fairy sword emitted Dao Dao immortal qi, horizontal in the square in the air, on which stood a Tongtian Peak Changmen Taoist priest, and said loudly to the disciples of all veins standing in the square:

"Senior brothers, the real person in charge of the sect has an order with you, please go to the Yuqing Hall to speak to all the senior brothers who participated in the Seven Veins Martial Arts Test. ”

The mountain wind blew, the white clouds were ethereal, and the hundreds of Qingyun disciples in the square moved for a while, and then people walked out one after another and walked towards the front of the square.

Zhang Xiaofan originally thought that those disciples who had cultivated to the highest level would directly sacrifice the magic weapon and go to the sky, but when he looked at everyone, they didn't seem to have such intentions, and walked honestly one by one. He walked with Lin Jingyu, looked left and right, and saw Tian Ling'er walking with Xiao Zhufeng Wen Min and other women, smiling, and seemed to be in a good mood, while Song Daren and other Da Zhufeng disciples followed behind them.

As for the first line of Longshoufeng, seven or eight people walked out of Qi Hao's group of people, but at this moment, they went elsewhere and greeted the disciples of the other veins who also came out, especially Qi Hao, who shouted the names of the disciples of the other veins familiarly, and greeted them with exquisite faces, while the disciples of the other veins also greeted each other with smiles, and it seemed that they had traveled extensively.

"Senior Brother Qi, he is very good at making friends," noticing that Zhang Xiaofan's eyes had been looking at Qi Hao, Lin Jingyu, who was walking beside him, said, "And his cultivation is profound, and he has the trust of his master Cangsong Zhenren, so in Qingyunmen, everyone gives him face." ”

Zhang Xiaofan listened to it in his ears, his face was expressionless, and he just nodded slowly.

Walking to the end of the square, is the "Hongqiao" in the six views of Qingyun, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu walked here when they were rescued on Qingyun Mountain five years ago, and at this moment they revisited the old place, and they couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in their hearts.

Stepping on the ghostly bridge body of Hongqiao, looking at the clear water flowing down on both sides of the bridge, still folding shè out of the psychedelic and beautiful seven sè rainbow, five years ago, two teenagers who didn't know the world, are now disciples of Qingyunmen. Walking at the end of the crowd, Lin Jingyu suddenly sighed lowly: "It's been five years!"

Zhang Xiaofan was silent, just walked forward. The scene in front of me is the same as back then, as the rainbow bridge rises, the white clouds gradually fall at the feet, and the blue sky is as clear as washing, horizontal overhead.

"Why don't you go up with the sword?" Zhang Xiaofan said suddenly.

Lin Jingyu had a slight surprise on his face, and said, "Don't you know, our disciples are not allowed to allow the imperial sword to volley in the air near the main hall of Tongtian Peak. I heard Senior Brother Qi Hao say that this is to show respect for the Changmen, and to walk up the Yuqingguan Holy Land; secondly, I heard that at the beginning of the establishment of our Qingyun Gate, in order to protect this place, the Qingyun Patriarch once set up a very powerful ban on the top of this Tongtian Peak, called the 'Zhuxian Sword Array', as long as anyone flies to the sky above Tongtian Peak without authorization, he will inevitably be killed by the 'Zhuxian Sword Array'. ”

Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback and said, "No wonder there are so many masters of the same sect, but there is not a single one of the imperial swords." By the way, is that 'Zhuxian Sword Array' powerful?"

Lin Jingyu looked at the mountain peak standing tall in front of him, and said, "I haven't seen it either, but I think it's extremely powerful." I heard that this 'Zhuxian Sword Array' was passed down from the Qingyun Patriarch, and the Qingyun Patriarch perfected it again thousands of years ago, and the power was overwhelming, and since then, I have never heard of anyone daring to go to our Qingyun Mountain to spread wild. ”

Zhang Xiaofan followed his gaze to look at the majestic and tall mountain peak, and sighed: "It's so powerful!"

The two of them walked as they spoke, following the dozens of people across the Hongqiao. Along the way, Zhang Xiaofan looked at these young generation of Qingyunmen, but saw that among the more than sixty people, men accounted for most of them, and it was estimated that there were only thirteen or four female disciples, and most of them were wearing Xiaozhufeng costumes. However, regardless of men and women, looking at it, almost all of them are overbearing, the men are magnificent, the women are beautiful and generous, and the men and women are all over the place. Whoever sees it, it must be said that there are successors to Qingyunmen, and the future is bright.

After crossing the Hongqiao, you will arrive at the blue water pool where the spirit beast "Water Qilin" lives in Qingyunmen Town. Unlike when Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu first came five years ago, this ancient beast that was respectfully called "Lingzun" by the disciples of Qingyunmen did not hide in the pool at this time, but had been lying on the open space by the pool for a long time basking in the sun. But looking at its lazy appearance, it's no different from five years ago.

The Qingyun disciples walked down the Hongqiao, saluted the behemoth one by one, and then stepped on the steps by the pond and walked towards the main hall of the Yuqing Temple, which was high above. Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan followed behind everyone and whispered to Zhang Xiaofan: "Do you remember what happened to us when we first came?"

Zhang Xiaofan nodded, and said with palpitations: "Remember, I was drenched in water, but that's okay, seeing such a big monster can frighten me." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Jingyu's mouth, and he said: "That's it, when we were in Caomiao Village before, when did we see this kind of thing, I thought that the biggest animal in the world was the bear on Qingyun Mountain." ”

Zhang Xiaofan laughed loudly, and for a while, everyone looked back, Zhang Xiaofan was startled, and quickly stopped laughing. Lin Jingyu was also taken aback, coughed dryly twice, and his face was slightly red.

The others glanced at it a few times, then turned their heads and continued to walk, Zhang Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his eyes to Lin Jingyu, the two of them looked at each other, and they both smiled.

The dozens of people in front of them quickly walked over, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu walked down the Hongqiao, came to the side of the blue water pool, and saluted respectfully to the water unicorn. However, from the very beginning, this water unicorn seemed to be sleeping very dead, and no one saluted and did not react, and at the moment he was asleep, snoring like thunder, and he didn't know that these two Qingyun juniors were saluting it.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu never thought that the water qilin would answer them, and after saluting, they walked up the steps. Zhang Xiaofan said: "Jing Yu, last time you came to Dazhu Peak, you were in a hurry, and I didn't congratulate you." I can't imagine that you have only been working for a few years and have such a high Taoism. ”

Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "This is all taught by my mentor Cangsong Zhenren and all the senior brothers," Speaking of this, he paused, and his voice gradually turned low, and said: "In fact, in the first few years, whenever I was working hard, I thought of the pile of bloody corpses in Caomiao Village, and I felt uncomfortable, so I worked hard to practice, hoping that one day I would have a great enmity between my parents and the people in the village." ”

Zhang Xiaofan's heart was sour, and he stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder. Lin Jingyu calmed down, cleaned up his mood, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about the past." What about you, how are you cultivating?"

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said, "You know that I haven't been as smart as you since I was a child, all these years on Dazhu Peak, Master and all the senior brothers have been very good to me, but I am too stupid, and the progress in cultivation is extremely slow, I am very sorry for Master and Senior Brother." ”

Lin Jingyu snorted and said, "Where are you stupid, I think it's your dwarf master who deliberately makes it difficult for you to pass on your true Qingyunmen cultivation method." ”

Zhang Xiaofan didn't expect the dispute two years ago, Lin Jingyu is still angry with Tian Buyi, and said with a smile: "No, my master is not that kind of person." Forget it, don't talk about me, by the way, is your magic weapon still the 'Dragon Slaying Sword' from two years ago?"

Lin Jingyu nodded and said with a smile: "This divine sword is the treasure of the dragon head peak, and I have been passed on this sword by my teacher, in addition to being extremely powerful, and the sword has a spirit, which is of great help to my cultivation." ”

Zhang Xiaofan was envious in his heart, and his face was also revealed, and he said, "That's the best." ”

Lin Jingyu smiled and asked, "What about you, Xiaofan, do you have any magic weapons?"

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously reached into his arms and touched the black "burning stick". A hint of coldness rushed to his palm.

"No," he whispered, "I don't practice enough to use magic weapons." ”

Lin Jingyu didn't care either, it seemed that he had expected it, and comforted him: "It's okay, Xiaofan, as long as you practice diligently, you will definitely succeed, anyway, we are still young, so we should come to see it this time." ”

The corners of Zhang Xiaofan's mouth moved, looking at the kind face of his old friend, listening to his gentle words, but there was no trace of relief.

See?

Everyone thought that he had come here just to see it, and when he thought of this, he suddenly felt an indescribable anger in his heart, like a fire burning in the depths of his heart, but it dissipated in a blink of an eye. He bowed his head, and did not speak, not even to blame his friend, for he found that even he himself thought so.

As if in response to his thoughts, the "burning stick" in his arms, which was still connected to his palm at this moment, suddenly had a reaction, and in a moment, the cold air was strong, spreading directly from his palm to his shoulder.

Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, but then found that this feeling was not dangerous to his body at all, but rather quite comfortable. He looked to the side, but saw that Lin Jingyu was unaware.

Just when Zhang Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, a deafening roar erupted from behind them. Zhang Xiaofan was okay, but even Lin Jingyu, whose cultivation was far superior to him, was like him, his whole body was shocked, his ears were ringing, and his ears were ringing, and some of the Qingyunmen disciples who walked in front of them seemed to be in the same situation.

Everyone was extremely surprised, how could there be such a strange sound on this Qingyunmen Holy Land, and they all turned around at the moment, and when they saw it, everyone was even more shocked.

,
