Ever since the Savage Flower Thousand Bones came out, he could feel the inexplicable powerful power in his body at all times, like a brewing volcano, and couldn't wait to erupt out. But it was firmly suppressed by something. The two are like tigers competing with each other, and they are in a stalemate. In the wilderness, the power was still forced to lie dormant quietly, and as soon as she returned to the Six Realms, the whole body began to boil and roar, as if it was about to devour her completely.

Most of the injuries to the body were permanent and fatal, but now they have miraculously healed, and the body is even more agile and agile than before. If it weren't for the scarring, she would have thought that all the pain she had had was fake. She has been born too many things this year, physically and mentally exhausted, she has been holding on tightly, and the news of Bai Zihua's re-admission of apprentices finally broke the string in her heart completely.

Even if she still squeezes out a smiling face and pretends to be meaningless, the pain and grievances in her heart are superimposed again and again, and the mixture of depression and the powerful power of the demon god is always burning her fiercely in her heart, as if she wants to incinerate her. Although it is not to be demonized, it is also an internal injury. After a leak, he finally calmed down and finally faced the matter rationally and seriously.

10,000 voices in my heart were shouting, wanting to see him, trying to figure out what had happened in the year she was away. It's okay to say she's stubborn, or it's okay to say she's obsessive. After so many years, she understands and absolutely believes in Master's character. Since he said in front of the people of the world that he will only accept one apprentice in this life, he will not accept others as apprentices without expelling himself from the school, and there must be something else to do about this matter.

Hui Changliu's heart was like an arrow, too many words were blocked in her chest, and she was so suffocated that she couldn't breathe. She wanted to see Master like crazy, but she knew that she must not let him see her.

It was very cold, and the cold wind on the sea was biting, mixed with fine hailstones, and hit her face as low as possible, forming a wall cover around her body. The sky is overcast and gloomy, and I am afraid that there will be a big snowstorm in a short time. Now that she has no sword, she can only resist the wind, but the degree is much faster than the original edgeworth, and it will not take long to reach the sky above Changliu Mountain.

It was pitch black all around, only a long stay was suspended, and a faint silver glimmer appeared on the sea, like a huge gem. The waves are higher than the waves, and the whirlpool wants to involve Nagaru in it.

Hua Qiangu took out the human skin mask that he had imitated according to the "Seven Peerless Spectrum" just before leaving Maoshan and covered his face. Due to the haste of time, it is not very delicate, but it should be enough to cope with it for a while, as long as it is not seen by the three statues and those sharp-eyed elders.

flew around Changliu, but now several secret paths were all sealed, and the air was densely covered with seals, and they couldn't even get close. Hua Qiangu felt a little strange, staying for a long time is a big faction in the fairy world, and he has always prided himself on being very high, and the demons did not dare to invade, and there was usually only a simple wall cover, but now, why is it so troublesome, and he looks like he is facing a great enemy?

Fortunately, her mana is much stronger than at the beginning, and although it took some twists and turns, she finally opened a secret path into the mountain. Returning to the place where I have been thinking for a long time, I can imagine the excitement in my heart. I thought that the layers of barriers outside and the mountains would also be strictly guarded, but what she didn't expect was that there was no need to sneak around and hide at all. In front of the hall, the corridor, the practice ground, the forest...... There was nothing silent about a person everywhere, and there was something eerie.

Although there is usually a curfew at night during the long stay, how can there not even be half of the disciples patrolling? I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, and since I saw the massacre in Maoshan that year, as long as there was such an empty scene, she would habitually feel nervous and scared. Gently closing her eyes, she found that there were people in several familiar dormitories, and she relaxed slightly.

Looking at the Temple of Despair above, the place she missed so much that she didn't know how many times she had dreamed back at midnight. Holding back the stinging pain in his heart, he told himself that he must not go up, and if the master saw that he had returned, it would be difficult to save Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue's identity is special, and it can be said that it is the most important place for prisoners in the entire Six Realms, and the place where the prisoners are held must be extremely secret. It is no longer possible to be in such a hurry that I was locked up in a prison full of enchantments and seals. She didn't have any plans in advance this time, so she naturally understood that even with her current strength, it was not enough to rescue Satsuki without loss. She's just worried, just missing, just wanting to explore the truth. Even if you can't save him, it would be nice if you could see him talk to him through secret language or something.

Secretly sneaked into the prison, and still half of the guards did not pay attention, and there was no one to detain inside, no wonder there was no need for guards. Satsuki is really no longer here......

Frowning slightly, blaming himself for being too reckless, he should have discussed with Dongfang first and asked clearly. Maybe Satsuki has already been transferred, and maybe she won't stay for a long time.

I closed my eyes and started looking for Sugar Treasure again, but it turned out that not only Sugar Treasure was not in the mountains, but they were not even in the mountains. What's going on? Won't tomorrow be a long feast for the immortals, they shouldn't have something to do at this juncture?

At first, she thought that even if she didn't know anything about this year's birth, as long as she saw Sugar Baby, everything would be clear, and it wouldn't be too difficult to find Xiao Yue, but she didn't expect Sugar Treasure to be there, which was really a mistake.

Slightly depressed and dejected, leaning lightly on the pillars, looking at the palace of despair. She originally thought that she could meet everyone this time, but how long she had been waiting for this day, but she didn't expect that everyone was not there.

looked at the surroundings, it was still the Changliu Mountain she was familiar with, but she felt that something was different, and the air was full of murderous aura.

Master was in the same place where she could see her head up.

No, focus on the big picture. She gritted her teeth and prepared to fly away from Changliu, but suddenly saw a flash of red light not far away.

What people?!

Hua Qiangu frowned slightly, thought about it, and followed. When I looked at it, it turned out to be an eleven or twelve-year-old girl with red lips and white teeth, pink carvings and jade carvings, looking at the clothes and figure, it should be a long-term disciple, but I haven't met before, and I was born very.

She quietly wandered among the pavilions and pavilions, and then sneaked into the kitchen in a sneaky flash.

Seeing her description so sneaky, Hua Qiangu couldn't tell for a moment whether she was a spy who had mixed in from outside or a greedy disciple who braved the curfew to sneak into the kitchen to find something to eat. But seeing that she was combing two round buns, her appearance was simple and lovely, and it was estimated that she should not be a bad person.

I didn't want to make more trouble, and I was about to leave, but I heard the sound of ping-pong collapse and shattering from the kitchen.

Thinking that something was wrong, she hurriedly dodged in, but saw that the child was helpless, opening his mouth wide to look at the mess on the ground, and at Hua Qiangu.

He bowed and apologized again and again, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean to......" I wondered for a while, why I was still heard when I put the protective shield immediately, and I came so quickly.

Hua Qiangu was stunned for a long time before she realized that she must have mistaken herself for a disciple who specialized in doing chores in the kitchen.

Seeing that she looked like she had done something bad and was caught, she obediently lowered her head and admitted her mistakes, Hua Qiangu couldn't help but smile gently, shook her head gently, and then squatted down to help her clean up the mess on the ground.

"The little broom is gone, are you the new one to replace him?" the puffy girl suddenly looked heartbroken, looking at her with teary eyes.

Hua Qiangu was stunned and could only nod slightly.

But she didn't expect the person in front of her to pounce all of a sudden, she squatted down, her center of gravity was unstable, and she was suddenly pressed to the ground by her.

Before she could react to what was going on, the girl was already buried in her arms, hugging herself tightly and crying.

Although she looks about the same age as her, she is much older than her. It was inevitably a little embarrassing to be pressed to the ground by her like this. Helplessly, she was crying sadly, and her body was trembling like a rabbit in the cold wind. Hua Qiangu could only reflexively pat her on the back and comforted her silently.

The child cried for a while, her eyes were red, more like a rabbit, and she unceremoniously wiped her nose on her clothes. Then he clumsily got up and embarrassedly helped her up.

"It's so hard to see people about my age on the mountain, ah, Shizun has sent the younger and younger people away from the mountain. What's your name?"

Hua Qiangu looked at her big and simple eyes and couldn't help frowning, the things before and after were connected, and I thought about Changliushan, could something have happened? Master, is it okay!?

There was a panic in her heart for no reason, and she replied: "My name is Xiao Qi." ”

Bamboo dyeing falls eleven foxes, green hills, floating fires, sunset dances, green roses. Counting the characters, he is indeed the youngest of the three disciples, ranking seventh.

"Ahh

The child in front of him danced in surprise, and circled around the flower thousand bones, and looked carefully and excitedly.

"I ...... It is mute and can only speak with internal force. ”

Hua Qiangu looked at her, her eyes widened with curiosity, chattering and jumping around, like an indescribable sourness in her heart when she had just entered Changliu.

"Ah......h

Suddenly, he stretched out his little hand and stroked Hua Qiangu's neck. Hua Qiangu's body was shocked, and she almost thought that her disguised fake face was seen through by her. But I didn't expect her to just caress it gently, as if she saw a wound between her throat, and her eyes showed distress and unbearability.

"It seems to be a serious injury, and I can't recover it. At first, she still had a little doubt and vigilance about the heart in front of her called Xiao Qi, but as soon as her hand touched it, she knew that she really couldn't speak, and sympathy dispelled all her suspicions, and the warnings up and down were thrown out of the clouds by her.

"Will you heal the wounds?" Hua Qiangu gently pulled her hand away unnaturally, and suddenly she was not very used to the intimacy shown by strangers, not because of disgust, but simply because of subconscious inferiority, knowing how ugly and scary the face under her face was.

"Well, don't you know? I'm very powerful, I didn't need spells since I was a child, and the bird's wings were injured or something, and I could fly again when I touched it. I like to help people save people, so the spells I have mainly practiced over the years are also healing techniques, and I don't like the Five Elements Technique, but my father always forced me to practice, saying that if I don't fight others in the battle, I will be beaten and bullied, so I don't listen to him, I don't like to fight with others. Later, I came to Changliu Mountain and told me that it is not enough to have the ability to heal others, I need to be strong enough to learn to protect myself and the people around me from being hurt. I think it makes sense, so I started to learn other spells, and even though I've only been here for more than half a year......, I'm already very powerful! You don't know me?"

Hua Qiangu was stunned, should she know her?

"I'm a ...... who just entered the mountain"

"I think you can use your internal force to speak, the spell should be very powerful, and you can stay in Changliu Mountain without being sent away, I thought you had been cultivating for a long time!"

"I ...... I used to cultivate in Shushan for a while. ”

"Oh, that's no wonder you don't know that you're still coming to the kitchen so late! Shizun didn't tell you, it's dangerous at night in Changliu Mountain, and you are definitely not allowed to go out. ”

"Why?"

"Because the demons will come to Changliu Mountain at night to catch people, catch one every night, many people have died, no matter how you prevent it, you can't prevent it......," the child in front of him lowered his head and began to sob, "The little broom was captured by the demon last night, and it was taken directly from the heavily guarded dormitory." Everybody says he's dead......"

Hua Qiangu was stunned, looked at the child in front of her, and began to cry sadly again, and suddenly envied her, she could cry so wantonly to vent her emotions.

It's just that what the hell is going on, what happened when she was away. Does this have anything to do with Sister Qianmo? There are too many things, but she is stupid and doesn't know anything.

Touching her head, he selflessly dedicated his sleeve to help her wipe away her tears again: "But why did you run out alone at night? Are you hungry?

"No......," she muttered, looking down, "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else." I don't know if I'm sick or I've been coughing up blood since I've been recovering from an old injury. I couldn't cure anything, but he didn't allow me to tell Shizun and Confucianism, and I was so anxious that I didn't know what to do. At night, he woke up in a daze for a while, and suddenly said that he wanted to eat peach blossom soup, but there was nothing to eat in the palace of despair, so where would I make peach blossom soup. I can only sneak down and want to try to make it, usually I come to the kitchen to steal food, there is a small broom will make it for me, now the little broom is gone, but I didn't expect to make it so difficult to eat by myself...... Xiao Qi, what's wrong with you......"

Hua Qiangu staggered back two steps, leaning weakly against the wall, and reached out to stop her support.

"You...... What's your name?"

"My name is Youruo, I just won the Fairy Sword Conference today, but it's beautiful! I thought you'd recognize me! hehe......"

Hua Qiangu's lips trembled and she slowly closed her eyes. Originally...... It's her, no wonder......

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine. Hua Qiangu sighed with a wry smile. The world is so ridiculous, what else can she say?

"You...... Risking the danger to run out just to make a bowl of peach blossom soup for His Excellency?"

96. Things are not people

"En......" Youruo lowered her head and poked her fingers, "It's a pity that I'm too stupid to do it." Xiao Qi, will you, can you help me!"

Hua Qiangu held back the sourness in his heart, gritted his teeth and nodded: "I'll teach you, but you have to do it yourself." ”

"Great!" Youruo cheered and threw herself into her arms again, although she hadn't known this Xiao Qi for long, but there was a fragrant smell on her body, she liked it so much, so that she had a very familiar and intimate feeling, had she seen her before?

Hua Qiangu pushed her away quietly, she couldn't tell what it was like to face her.

Is this the one who is about to replace her? She used to be very unwilling to fantasize about her special status as a delicate and rude lady like Ni Mantian. Now that she saw it, it was not at all what she imagined. No wonder Master likes her, and even himself can't help but like her......

Peach Blossom Soup――

Why did Master suddenly want to eat peach blossom soup? Was he sick or injured? Was it serious? The residual poison should have been cleared. What happened this year, and who injured him? Impossible, how could anyone in this world beat Master?

She really wanted to make a bowl of peach blossom soup for him with her own hands like she did at the beginning, although it was simple, but Master has always liked it the most.

But she couldn't, if she did it, the master would eat the peach blossom soup that tasted exactly the same as the original, and the filling would be exposed.

Watching Youruo busy under his command, although his movements were slightly clumsy, he was not organized, his round little face was flushed, he was excited, and a little sweat was dripping on his forehead, and he couldn't tell whether he was envious or bitter in his heart.

After a while, the peach blossom soup was ready, Youruo tasted it, and shouted happily: "Xiao Qi, you are so good, you make it delicious, I can't believe it's from my handiwork, hehe!"

Hua Qiangu nodded lightly: "You live in the Palace of Absolute Love?"

"Daddy is not worried, I have been living in the Hall of Despair with Zun for a long time. ”

"Your Excellency...... How did he treat you?"

"The Venerable Master is good, treat me well! I have always wanted to worship under his door, today I finally won the Fairy Sword Conference, I immediately ran to ask the Venerable and the World-Honored One, but I didn't expect him to actually nod and agree!"

"He promised it himself?"

"Of course, what's wrong with you, Xiaoqi, are you not feeling well, go back and rest early!"

"I'm fine...... Hua Qiangu smiled vaguely, gently holding Youruo's hand, "Please...... Take good care of him. If he still wants to eat peach blossom soup, do what I taught you today. ”

"Well, thank you!" Youruo smiled and suddenly hugged her and kissed her on the face, "Give you a beautiful kiss, I have to go back quickly, Zunshang must be in a hurry, if I wake up and am seen by him, I will slip down the palace alone, it will be a big deal." I'll come to you tomorrow when I have time. ”

Hua Qiangu nodded, waved her hand, and watched Youruo happily fly towards the Palace of Despair, her pink back was so bright that she wanted to cry.

......

Did he go back like this? Although he had accepted his re-apprenticeship, how could he rest assured that he was injured?

If you don't want to be him, just get closer and listen to his voice, okay?

She clutched her colicy chest and looked at the Hall of Despair reluctantly. Seeing Youruo, she has no complaints, but she wants to see him even more.

Maybe that's the way to really let go?

Struggling and unable to bear it any longer, she finally stepped on the waterfall and went up to the Hall of Despair.

The body floated like a light smoke, and fell on a blooming peach blossom in the middle of the courtyard tree, as light as a feather.

Carefully hide all the breath, look around, and the grass and trees in the hall of despair are still exactly the same as when they left. The peach blossom trees in the courtyard are fragrant like rain, and they are still colorful and gorgeous in the cold wind. A pink peach essence woke up from her sleep, and saw her buzzing voice in surprise and confusion. Hua Qiangu's index finger shouted and winked at her. As if recognizing who she was, he immediately flapped his wings as thin as a cicada's wings and threw himself into her arms.

Hua Qiangu sat on a peach blossom tree not far away, quietly looking at the door painted by Bai Zi. He closed his eyes and felt the familiar aura, knowing that he was in the room at the moment. The heart is like a twisted flower, and I am about to lose my breath. It's been a year, and I've been thinking about him all the time, has he ever thought about himself?

Master, Xiao Gu is back......

Suppressing the urge to see him, he bit his lower lip fiercely and told himself that he couldn't get any closer, otherwise he would definitely be revealed. You can't use the subtleties to spy on him and make him aware of it.

Just a few feet away, why does she still feel separated by thousands of rivers and mountains?

I miss you, do you know?

......

There was a cough suddenly from the room, Hua Qiangu gasped, his brain was blank, and he quickly covered his mouth to stop the shouts and sobs that he was about to blurt out.

Why is Master so weak?

My heart suddenly clenched, and then I heard a faint voice.

"The peach blossom soup is ready, you can eat it while it's hot!"

After a long pause, she finally heard the voice of her thoughts.

"Why do you make peach blossom soup?"

"Your Excellency said you want to eat. ”

"I said I wanted to eat?"

"I said it when I woke up in the middle of the day, so I did it right away. ”

There was a long silence in the room.

"I'm sorry, I just fell asleep. There's no food here, so you're going down alone, aren't you?"

You Ruo didn't speak, only the sigh of Bai Zihua's painting was heard.

"Don't be careless, you can't go down to the Palace of Despair alone at night in the future, you know?"

"I know, the one who wants to catch those bad guys is me, but I'm already very powerful, I won't win the Fairy Sword Conference, won't I be captured casually, Don't worry, Honorable. Eat it and it will be cold after a while. ”

"I'm not going to eat it, you can take it out and pour it out. ”

"Ah, why? Didn't you really want to eat it just now, and it tasted so good!" Youruo was slightly puzzled and excited.

There was another strong cough in the room, and each one hit Hua Qiangu's heart hard, and she wanted to cry.

"Your Excellency, are you okay?" Youruo said nervously and anxiously, her voice seemed to be about to cry: "I was obviously fine a few days ago, why did my body suddenly become so bad today, is it that it is about to snow today, so the old injury is healing?"

"No need, you're tired from today's competition, so go back early to rest. ”

Hua Qiangu had never heard the master speak in such a gentle and doting tone, even if he had never been to himself. His voice was always faint, and there was a sense of detachment and teaching. It's like the first snow, quietly falling on the eaves, cold and lonely.

This kid is different to him. Master never does anything that goes against his heart. This child named Youruo who is about to become his apprentice is really loved and liked......

She quickly clicked on the two acupoints in her chest, swallowed the salty head that surged up in her throat, gently leaned against the tree, and slowly closed her eyes.

The last remaining hope was shattered......

Stupidly trying to convince himself that the matter of accepting apprentices was just arranged and planned by Mo Yan Shizun, and now it seems that it is really the master's own decision, and no one or external force forces force him.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, how could I not know, although Master is a person who focuses on the overall situation, he has never been threatened or persecuted by anyone or anything.

She heard the voice of her heart breaking a little, and she didn't want to stay here any longer, and wanted to leave, but she was reluctant. After a lot of hardships, he came back to the original place, just to get closer to him, just to listen to him more, and feel the real existence of him. But that's all I saw.

In the sky, snowflakes the size of goose feathers fluttered down, and the cold wind blew, and the hands, feet, and hearts slowly condensed into ice.

"Your Excellency, let's eat something and then sleep, I finally did it, but I am reluctant to throw it away. ”

She watched Youruo open the door and came out, turned around and stuck out her tongue mischievously with someone on her back, and the moment the door opened, she vaguely saw the white corner of the master sitting at the table.

I couldn't help but reach out and only grasp the infinite void.

She watched as Yuruo jumped back to sleep, but it was her room that she had entered at the beginning.

Why did she want to live in that one of the so many rooms in the Hall of Despair? Did Master throw away all her things? Because she would never come back?

A snowflake fell on the palm of her hand, cold, cold, bone-chilling.

Retracting his hand, he held the bell in his arms tightly, and the proof of their master-apprentice relationship was like grasping at a life-saving straw. Now, shouldn't she give this bell to Youruo? Looking up at the snowflakes flying all over the sky, she wanted to cry, but she couldn't.

I sat in a tree in front of the door all night, and the snow became heavier and heavier. Her head and shoulders were covered with snow, and she remained motionless, as if she had turned into a snowman and a peach blossom with all the branches.

Listening to the coughing sound coming from time to time in the room, what kept flashing in my mind was the little bit I got along with him in front of this court. His hands and feet were slowly cold and numb, and his heart was so cold that he couldn't even feel the pain.

It's almost dawn and it's time to go.

She stiffened, got up, shook the snow on her body, and staggered in the void. Suddenly, a bell rang softly, and he looked down sluggishly, looking down at the bell in his hand, which had accidentally slipped from his stiff fingertips to the ground. ......

Sandalwood curls and smoke fills the air.

In the room, Bai Zihua sat in front of a bowl of peach blossom soup all night, although he knew that the thing was for eating, not for seeing. But I don't want to eat it, and I don't want to throw it out with my own hands. It's like a bowl full of memories that refuse to touch or forget.

Wan Lai suddenly heard a soft sound, as if it came from another time and space. I hurriedly opened the door a few steps, only to see the empty courtyard covered in snow.

Are you hallucinating again, why do you keep ringing in your ears?

Bai Zihua leaned weakly against the door, his fingers sinking into the pillar. is still cold and proud, lonely and tall, but his face is pale and crystalline, and his eyes are tired, which cannot be concealed in the gloom.
