Chapter 23 Against the Enemy
Xu Xian hurried to the lake and called out twice, "Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing." Sure enough, there was a sound of water, and a cyan snake's head came out of the water, opened its bloody mouth, spat out a bright red letter, and asked, "What are you doing?" The fangs shone in the silver moonlight, but they spit out a strange fragrance.
Xu Xian thought to himself, he really lost his usual mouth. only told her about the various calculations that Bai Suzhen had calculated. Xiaoqing was really anxious and said, "Let's go find my sister together." "Transformed into a human form, with long hair in Tsing Yi, but she is still a delicate beauty. It's just that his face is red, which is different from Ping. If it weren't for that toad essence's Neidan, she wouldn't even be able to maintain her body today, and she is extremely reluctant now.
Xu Xian hurriedly stopped her and said, "I'm here to let you stay honest, wait a minute, no matter what movement you hear, don't get out of the water." No, you go along the waterway now, and come back in two days. ”
How could Xiaoqing listen, and said angrily: "You want me to leave you and run away alone, who are you to be this girl." Although it was already the middle of the night, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and she was already restless, but now when she heard this, she was even more anxious. is going to leave Xu Xian behind and find Bai Suzhen.
Xu Xian stopped her waist and pulled her in his arms, let her struggle desperately, and didn't let go, only said: "If you can't exert your mana, you can't help us even if you make a move, and you don't have to make a move, you can stay in the water with peace of mind, don't make trouble for us." ”
Xiaoqing's body was already weak and weak, so he broke free and said, "Nedan is what I eat, and I should go to reason." After a dispute, Xiao Qingwu was stubborn. made Xu Xian have a headache, so he simply turned over the hazel head and kissed her deep red lips. The mouth is full of hot and sweet flavors.
Xiaoqing already felt hot, but this time it was even more like he was ignited, and his body was soft in his arms, and his dazed head was even more intoxicated. Xu Xian kissed him and said, "Trust us, okay?"
Xiaoqing nodded unconsciously, and it was too late to change her words. But his mind calmed down a lot, thinking that he couldn't help, he let go of his impulse and said, "I'll stay in the lake." ”
Xu Xian smiled slightly, pinched her chin, and put her back into the lake. Whether the other party is a cultivator who knows how to divination, it is safer to take her under their protection.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. In this early night, it is far away.
Xu Xian's expression changed, and he instructed Xiaoqing again, put Xiaoqing back into the lake, and turned to leave. She looked at his departing back in the water, and couldn't help but feel something strange.
On the path next to the flowers, Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the door together.
Lined up the door, sure enough, I saw an old Taoist priest standing there leisurely, with a snow-white slender beard, his face was red but there was no wrinkles, he was really a crane-haired childish face, and he knew that he was a Taoist at a glance.
After Bai Suzhen gave a salute, he asked, "I don't know which of the true monarchs of Sanmao is here?"
The Taoist priest was even more strange in his heart, it was really rare for a cultivator to live in the same room with a demon. also returned the half-salute and said: "Old Dao Mao Zhen, I have seen two Taoist friends, Poor Dao has just come down from Maoshan Mountain, in order to inquire about a disciple who is not angry." ”
Xu Xian was happy in his heart, he was the one who came, but in terms of mana, it should be the easiest to deal with. His face was silent, and he said, "Please come in and talk in detail." ”
Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen glanced at each other, and they both felt a lot more relieved, since this Taoist priest didn't shout and kill as soon as he came up, then there was a reason, and even if it was a fight, it was always easier to deal with it. As long as he survives this day, Bai Suzhen's strength is fully restored, and he is no longer afraid of him.
Inviting this heartfelt to the court, Bai Suzhen served tea and stood beside Xu Xian, only putting her hand on his shoulder. Mao was even more puzzled. Cultivators do not pay attention to the superiority of men and the inferiority of women, and those who attain it are the first.
This woman in white can maintain her figure during the Dragon Boat Festival, and she can also talk and laugh freely, obviously she is extremely profound. And no matter how high this young boy's Taoism is, he shouldn't be higher than her, how can he look like he is the main one now. "I don't know what kind of school the two Taoist friends have their surnames and inheritance?"
Xu Xian said with a smile: "Under the surname Xu Mingxian, the word is Chinese." Trained by Taiyin Zhenren and Fahai Zen Master, he has recently been enlightened by Lu Zu and learned some Taoism. Every word of his words is true, but everything is much worse. Anyway, it is to tear off the tiger skin first to let the other party have some scruples.
Mao was shocked, no wonder the result was so strange. There is such a source method, and these three people are not small in their names, especially Lu Dongbin, the pure yang patriarch of Zhongnan Mountain, who is a few figures in the Neidan faction, much stronger than the three of them. This Xu Immortal in front of him is really not to be underestimated.
He didn't know that these three characters were not close to Xu Xian, and Taiyin Zhenren only had a one-sided relationship with Xu Xian, and now he didn't know where he had drifted to. Fahai didn't come to him for trouble, which was a blessing. And Lu Chunyang came to ignite Xu Xian, but it was mostly a joke.
Seeing that the other party was thinking, Xu Xian patted Bai Suzhen's hand again and said, "This is the insider below, Bai Suzhen." Taught by the old mother of Lishan. ”
Bai Suzhen was shocked, she didn't expect him to say this, first blushing, lowering her head and feeling safe. Then he stopped talking, and waited to see what he had to say.
Mao Zhen shook his beard and said with a smile: "It turns out that they are all orthodox Daomen, but I don't know why I don't cultivate in the mountains anymore, and I want to mix in this red dust, besides, people and demons have different paths, how can they become husband and wife." As he spoke, he shook his head. Xu Xian didn't say it, Bai Suzhen is a monster who has attained the Tao, how can he mix in the mortal world. As long as you go to heaven, there will be hardships.
Bai Suzhen said: "The little woman went down the mountain because she got the head of Emperor Zhenwu, and in retribution, Lang Jun had a look a thousand years ago, and then she became husband and wife." If the Taoist chief has anything to say, he might as well say it directly, and we husband and wife will definitely know everything. ”
Mao Zhen put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll ask, how did my unsuccessful disciple offend the virtuous couple, not only ruined the Tao, but also caused the disaster of killing, and even the soul could not escape?"
In the quiet hall, there was suddenly an invisible pressure, and it was even more dull.
Xu Xian only felt that Bai Suzhen's hand on his shoulder tightened. patted it twice, and said without changing his face: "Don't hide it from the true monarch, that Wang Daoling died under my sword." He told the various reasons for Wang Daoling in Suzhou City, and he did not deceive. There is no point in lying in front of such people, but rather weakens the momentum.
Mao Zhen shook his head and said, "In this way, it really should be beaten." Xu Xian took a breath, but heard him continue: "If I heard it correctly, it is only a laxative, not a killing person, and the crime will not lead to death." Then he added a little to what Xu Xian said, such as Wang Daoling being deceived by Xu Xian, as if he had seen it himself.
"He can't see Xu Daoyou's Taoism, only when you are a mortal and confused by monsters. I want to save you, but for your own selfishness, you deceive him and put him to death. I don't know what the truth is? That's it, and it even scattered his soul and destroyed his body. If you really have a clear conscience, why do you do that?"
Xu Xian couldn't help but be stunned, it was a reasonable thing, but as soon as he said it, he became unreasonable. What he knew through the crossing could not be explained, so it was difficult to refute, and his momentum immediately weakened a lot.
Bai Suzhen said with a straight face: "The true monarch is wrong, Wang Daoling has harmed countless people, and our husband and wife originally only punished him lightly and expelled him from Suzhou." But it was he who started the murder first, but he refused to share the superiority with me in an upright manner, and wanted to use his husband's hand to harm other people's wives, what did he have in mind. The officials of my family were not deceived by him, but had a dispute with him, his skills were not as good as others, and he was killed and chased by the star-chasing sword, and his soul must be scattered. As for the destruction of corpses, it is just to prevent mortals from seeing it. ”
She was unhurried, calm and relaxed, and refuted all of Mao Zhen's words. Xu Xian was called by her as an official, and she was called Shutai.
Mao Zhen didn't laugh angrily, and said: "What a clever tooth, this matter can also be said to be the same, my disciple's relics are also asked to be taken out, so that I can take them back to the mountain." It seems that he agrees with this statement, and wants to end the matter in this way.
Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen glanced at each other, but they didn't expect him to be so easy to speak. Fortunately, the Wang Daoling thing hadn't had a chance to use it, so he went to pick it up and put it on the table.
Mao Zhen checked it, but said, "There is still one thing missing." ”
Xu Xianqi said: "I searched and picked it up, and I put it on the shelf, how could it be." Bai Suzhen's face changed suddenly, and she remembered something.
Mao Zhen said: "I don't know where Neidan is?"
Nedan had already been swallowed by Xiaoqing, Xu Xian naturally couldn't take it out, and said with difficulty: "Please forgive me, Nedan is gone." He also felt that it made no sense when he said this. Bai Suzhen couldn't say anything.
Mao Zhen laughed, shook the house, and said: "It's okay, just eat it and spit it out, I see that the two of you are not the ones who eat, I'll look elsewhere." As he spoke, he ignored the two of them and went straight to the backyard, where the small lake was where Xiaoqing lived.
Xu Xian understood his intentions, he and Bai Suzhen joined forces, even if they couldn't win, they would have more than enough self-protection. After surviving the Dragon Boat Festival, he is the one who wants to run. Even if Sanmao Zhenjun all came to the door, they would always run away if they couldn't beat them, and then borrowed the power of the dragon's body from the Qiantang River, so they might not be able to fight.
And Mao Zhen also saw that he couldn't take them on his own, and it would be useless to engage in a war of words. But he figured out Xiaoqing's location, and only then did he test his words again and confirm the speculation in his heart. immediately found the weakness and captured Xiaoqing with reason.
He came in politely, and one was to find out the truth of the matter. The second is that Xu Xian not only sighed, but none of these guys who have achieved cultivation are really good to think about. hurriedly blocked in front of Mao Zhen and said, "Dao Chief, if you have something to say, it's better to change something else to make compensation." ”
Mao Zhen smiled: "Although the poor road is poor, how can you miss that little thing." But he didn't stop, and walked past Xu Xian without avoiding it.
Bai Suzhen is so experienced, she knows that at such a time, it is useless to be reasonable, if he captures Xiaoqing, the two will immediately fall into trouble. With a clear sound, he flew and waved his palm, attacking Mao Zhen, the white smoke on the palm of his hand was slightly caged, like a layer of clouds and mist surrounded by the snow-capped mountains, although it seemed soft and casual, but if it was hit, it was immediately frozen into ice and could not move.
Mao's heart was awe-inspiring, and a thought flashed. "If it weren't for the Dragon Boat Festival, I'm afraid I wouldn't be the opponent of this white snake." But since the time is on me, there is no need to say any more. It was also a palm, but it was thunder entwined and crackling, instantly illuminating the dark house. It was Xu Xiande's book "Five Thunder Palm Method".
As soon as the thunderclouds touched, their palms struck, but there was no earth-shattering noise, but even the thunder was hidden, and the room suddenly fell into darkness again.
Although it seems to be evenly matched, Bai Suzhen secretly complains in her heart, and the Dragon Boat Festival is over. At this time, the summer solstice had just passed, and the power of thunder was naturally better than the power of ice and snow, and now it was just barely resisting. And if it's a monster who hasn't experienced the thunder tribulation, I'm afraid it won't even be able to resist a palm.
Although Mao Zhen had the upper hand, he didn't dare to be careless at all, a golden palm was already about to be imprinted under his cooperation, Xu Xian was just a "human immortal" realm, and he was more than a step away from Mao Zhen and Bai Suzhen, and his reflection was much slower. But this palm just landed in the gap between Mao Zhen and Bai Suzhen, teaching him to be difficult to guard against.
Mao Zhen held Bai Suzhen with one hand, and blocked Xu Xian's palm with the other hand like a flower, but there was a muffled sound like a bell ringing, winding between the beams. With one enemy and two enemies, Mao Zhen couldn't help but take a step back.
Xu Xian took three steps back, and Bai Suzhen hurriedly held him up and took over the power of thunder. Fortunately, although it is the Dragon Boat Festival, the thousand-year-old Taoism is still there, but it doesn't hurt. Xu Xian didn't say a word, handed her the prepared star-chasing sword, Bai Suzhen nodded, and pulled out the sword with a "poof", shining in all directions, and even Mao Zhen praised it: "Good sword." But he stopped and retreated out of the house.
Bai Suzhen attacked with Xu Xian, Mao Zhen took it, and walked out without hesitation. This kind of action is only between lightning and fire, but they all measure the strength of the other party.
It was the first time Xu Xian had confronted such a master, and he knew that the gap between them was huge, and it was the gap between the earth immortals and the human immortals. If Bai Suzhen is not on his side, I am afraid that he will be defeated and retreat in an instant, let alone face Fahai in the future. Even if he is a genius, how can he make up for the gap accumulated in this thousand years of time in a short period of time?
Bai Suzhen chased after the house, but felt that Xu Xian did not follow in time, and shouted: "Hanwen!"
Xu Xian woke up suddenly, how could she be so easily depressed, and chased out of the house, but saw Bai Suzhen fighting with Mao Zhen, the moonlight outside the house sprinkled a layer of frost on the ground, which was extraordinarily bright, she was holding a long sword, and her white clothes were fluttering, like a fairy in the moon. However, Xu Xian didn't have time to appreciate the beautiful scenery at this moment, and stretched out his hand and flew out of the three most powerful thunder runes.
Mao Zhen smiled slightly: "Banmen has an axe." Stretching out his hand to draw in the void, the two thunder talismans burned in the air before they could occur, and the only remaining one bloomed with brilliant thunder light in an instant, a thunder snake with the thickness of a tree trunk, full of huge energy and wandering freely, but avoided Bai Suzhen, several of which were stabbing towards Mao Zhen.
Even if it is a good idea, if it is hit, it will never be good. And the long sword in Bai Suzhen's hand also stabbed at Mao Zhen at the same time. The accuracy of the sword and the ingenious timing are much better than Xu Xian's swordsmanship. Being stabbed by the star-chasing sword will inevitably damage the soul.
Mao Zhen was not afraid, while retreating, with a move of wide sleeves, the few thunder snakes deviated from the direction, and actually hit Bai Suzhen, Bai Suzhen was startled, raised his sword to block, and blocked the thunder light, but was absorbed by the star-chasing sword, and it was not transmitted to his body at all.
Mao Zhen praised the "good sword" again, but he also changed his mind, the methods of these two people may not be as strong as he thought, especially that Xu Xian, if he talks about mental fortitude, it is far less than this Bai Suzhen, as long as he uses a little trick, he may be able to capture them all and raise my reputation in Maoshan Mountain. So he secretly clasped a brass bell in his hand.
Xu Xian's subsequent help backfired, Bai Suzhen fell into danger again and again, if it weren't for the divine sword in hand, I am afraid that she would no longer be Mao's opponent. Xu Xian's heart was also inexplicably anxious, and Bai Suzhen reminded more and more of a second place: "Ringtone!"
Xu Xian realized that there was a "buzzing" sound in the air at some point, as if countless mosquitoes had penetrated into his ears, disturbing his mind. Xu Xian's hand was printed, and he shouted "Lin" before he drove out the voice, but it slowly spread up.
Xu Xian saw that Bai Suzhen's forehead was already full of sweat, obviously fighting at such a time was not easy, and he was just trying to support it. couldn't help but hate her in her heart, "Could it be that if I do something, do I still want to drag her down?"
I can't help but miss the self when the original Yang God came out of the sheath, ruthless, desireless, sad and joyless, and can really exert his own strength to the extreme, and even exert it at a super level, but now he can't even use half of his strength. Xu Xian simply stood aside, no longer making a move, but closed his eyes.
Mao was overjoyed, could it be that he had given up resistance. While dodging Bai Suzhen's attack, he shook the copper bell in his hand more urgently. Bai Suzhen knew that Xu Xian must have his own ideas, so she stood in front of him and supported herself.
Xu Xian's mind has sunk into another world, into the memory of the past. I saw the scene when I went out of my body for the first time, the battle on the ship should have been thrilling, but in a calm and waveless state of mind, I easily won, I got the whole thing, and I took the surname of the head lowering master.
Looking at the memory, the indifferent self, I want to find the state I once was, but it is only in vain, and these scenes are just imaginary images. That kind of state is something that can be encountered but not sought, and how can it be done for a while.
Xu Xian's heart moved, "By the way, I still have merit." The merit card hanging on his chest began to flow out of cyan merit light, flowing into Xu Xian's body. Unconsciously, that layer of faint virtual image began to slowly flesh out. The hundreds of thousands of merits accumulated by Xu Xian in these words have been reduced by more than 200,000 in the blink of an eye.
