Chapter 09: Cloud Lake
Night.
A ruined temple with a bonfire lit.
In the empty snowfield, it is like a bright light, dispelling the endless darkness.
Qin Chuan and the two sisters of the Jade Sword Sect walked together, after a day of traveling, they had already arrived in Zhongzhou at this time, and they would start tomorrow and would be able to reach Jiugui Mountain at about noon.
In the temple, it was illuminated by the fire.
Sanna has always been secretive and doesn't know where she went, and Qin Chuan was hindered by the fact that all the people who were traveling with her were women, and it was inconvenient to be in the same place at night, so she rested alone on a hill outside the temple. In the candlelight, Ah Luoye looked at the figure under the lonely night sky from a distance through the temple gate, and felt a little desolate, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Qin Chuan sat cross-legged alone, quietly, looking up at the night sky without stars, like a statue.
The dragon's spine standing next to him also looked extremely lonely.
The wind in the night kept blowing, and it was getting colder and colder.
Aroye folded his legs, and couldn't help but get a little closer to the campfire. On the other side, Liu Shenyan covered the sleeping Li Xiaoxiao with a windbreaker, then looked at A Luoye, and then came over and sat beside him.
She also glanced out of the temple.
"Sometimes, I envy you. ”
Suddenly, Liu Shenyan said lightly, and there was an inexplicable melancholy in his words.
“?”
"At least, among these women, you have his people. ”
Liu Shenyan continued, and then smiled bitterly, "I don't know what kind of story he had when he was in the Western Frontier, but I only know that he spoiled you very much...... No, he's like that to everyone, it's just different. In his heart, he has already regarded you as a part of him, a part that cannot be parted with. ”
A Luo Ye looked at Liu Shenyan and was speechless.
She glanced at the outside of the temple again, the figure that looked extremely lonely, and unconsciously, there were some different emotions. She didn't know what Liu Shenyan wanted to say to her at this moment.
Suddenly, Liu Shenyan smiled:
"Last night, I went to Lihate. ”
“......”
Hearing this, Aroye was dumbfounded for a while. How could she not know that she didn't know that no one would break up the mountain in the middle of the night, but he and Qin Chuan did not hide it. Isn't that ......
As he spoke, Liu Shenyan's face turned red.
She naturally noticed the signs of the complete dissipation of the thunder in the sky last night, and she was worried about it, so she planned to take a look quietly, but who would have thought that she would encounter Qin Chuan and A Luo Ye in the clouds and rain in the hateful sky. In the end, she didn't plan to show up, but she only left with a little gloom.
"My husband and wife are very happy, what's wrong?!"
Immediately, Aroye was shy for a while, and he was angry and angry.
"There's nothing wrong with that. ”
However, he listened to Liu Shenyan's faint words, and was not moved by Ah Luoye's anger, his heart was as calm as water, and he only quietly looked at the lonely figure in the distance through the dilapidated temple eaves:
"But do you know that there is an even more important person in his heart?"
......
Heavy snowfall.
When Qin Chuan and the others arrived in Cloud Lake City, the sky was covered with goose feathers and heavy snow. In the cold winter, the entire Yunhu City was covered in snow, and the streets were empty. However, it does not seem deserted.
The grand event of Jiugui Mountain has not yet been held, and the cultivators who came from all over the Central Plains are temporarily living in this Yunhu City. At this time, there are people in all the restaurants and tea shops in the city to stop and rest, watch this quite rare harvest snow, drink tea and comment on poetry, and it is also quite lively.
Qin Chuan took a few women and came to a restaurant.
A man in a strange robe, with four beautiful women, appeared, which attracted the attention of many people. Of course, most of them are ordinary people, so they naturally don't know Qin Chuan.
There are also a few disciples of the Xiuzhen Sect, but because there are few masters of various sects who are sent to this Nine Return Mountain, they must all use this to let the disciples go out to practice. Therefore, those disciples who have never seen the world do not know the people of Qinchuan who are all extraordinary at this moment.
Not to mention Qin Chuan, the Holy Witch Sect Leader and the Thousand Butterfly Envoys, as well as the new Jade Sword Sect Sect Master, this kind of formation, whoever knows the origin, I am afraid it will inevitably cause a sensation.
"Are you too ostentatious?"
Liu Shenyan walked behind Qin Chuan and asked softly.
I can't help but think of Qin Chuan at that time, and he also walked into Yunhu City without swaggering, and as a result, many gangsters secretly worried, if Qin Chuan really had some ability, he wouldn't have been calculated?
However, hearing this, Qin Chuan replied lightly:
"I came here to tell them that I, Qin Chuan, are back. ”
“......”
Hearing this, Liu Shenyan didn't say anything more.
Subsequently, under the leadership of the shopkeeper of the restaurant, everyone came to an accord and rested. Sanna had come to protect Aroye secretly, and after whispering a few words to Aroye, she didn't know where she was hiding, and Li Xiaoxiao came to Yunhu City for the first time, and with Liu Shenyan's permission, she went to the city to play.
In the pavilion, there were only three people left.
Although A Luo Ye and Liu Shenyan were not hostile to each other for various reasons, they had nothing to say in front of Qin Chuan. As for Qin Chuan, he didn't know what to say.
The whole pavilion is a little dull.
Today's Qin Chuan is extraordinary, and the shopkeeper has also found a good position for everyone. In this Accord, you can just see the snow scene of the entire Yunhu City, a street that leads directly to the outside of the city, and there is no bustle in the snow, but it is also a different kind of beauty.
In this way, it has become Qin Chuan's target to pass the dullness.
“......”
Quietly glancing at the two people in front of the table who were drinking tea, Qin Chuan shook his head and looked out the window.
I saw a lonely figure walking slowly from outside the city, walking in the heavy snow, and there was no umbrella, so he walked on foot in the snow. When I got closer, I found that it was an old monk in a yellow robe, who seemed to have a Zen staff in his hand, and as he stepped in, he made a sound of a pestle and a pestle.
"Tuk... ......"
“?”
Soon, the old monk got closer and closer, and Qin Chuan saw it more and more seriously. However, Qin Chuan's heart was suddenly startled, his eyebrows froze, and he noticed the extraordinaryness of this old monk.
Cultivators!
Moreover, it is extremely unfathomable!
The Zen staff in his hand did not look like it belonged to the monks of Fanyin Temple, and it was actually pitch black, without any carved beads, and only exuded a very strange atmosphere. This breath ......
“!”
Suddenly, before Qin Chuan had time to think about it, the old monk raised his eyebrows and was staring at him from a distance. A terrifying deterrent force instantly hit my heart. It is the cultivation of the Fanyin Temple, there is no doubt about it, but even the head of the Fanyin Temple, who taught the Yin Zen Master, has never given himself such coercion.
Fanyin Temple, is there still a person above the sound?!
Suddenly, Qin Chuan remembered the Buddha statue facing the wall in the Fanyin Temple, as well as the late predecessor of the Fanyin Temple that Benkong had told him. At this time, it seems that the hidden truth behind it is not as simple as this!
“?!”
In a trance, Qin Chuan came back to his senses again, but saw that the monk had long since disappeared.
"Shen Yan, do you know what are the deceased masters of Fanyin Temple?"
Suddenly, Qin Chuan turned around and asked Liu Shenyan.
"Fanyin Temple?"
Hearing this, Liu Shenyan was stunned, and he didn't know why Qin Chuan suddenly asked, but after thinking for a while, he also answered, "Master once told me that the Zen master of Fanyin Temple today had a junior disciple in the past. Because of his disrespect for Buddhism, he was ordered to face the wall for a hundred years, and finally died of depression. ”
"Facing the wall?"
Aroye asked rhetorically. She didn't understand that Buddhism was compassionate, and if someone in the Holy Witch Sect asked the gods and ancestors, it wouldn't be as simple as thinking about it on the wall.
Ignoring Aroye, Liu Shenyan continued:
"It is said that when he was young, his achievements were already extraordinary. But once, his father and mother who were still in the world were killed, and the whole family was wiped out by the Demon Sect, when he begged the Fanyin Temple to help, but was refused, and as a result, he broke into the Demon Cave alone, completely destroying a stronghold of the Demon Sect. In this way, he should have achieved fame, but as a result, he was imprisoned for several years by Fanyin Temple for the crime of committing precepts, and there was no news after that. It is said that in the end, it was depressed. ”
Liu Shenyan said, a little embarrassed.
However, it made Aroye a little indignant and held it upright. Such a generation of heroes, who would have thought that they would end up like this. I really don't know, what is so good about the so-called Buddhism?
"Hoo ......"
However, after hearing all this, Qin Chuan let out a long sigh and was speechless.
Buddhism is true, and I dare not judge myself. Although I sigh, but only in my heart. The only thing he had doubts about was the true identity of the monk. The Zen staff in his hand, if expected, is good......
Obviously, it is one of the eight evil things.
Grief and rage!
......
Night.
The snow has stopped, and it is quiet and peaceful.
Qin Chuan thought that it would be difficult for A Luo Ye to get to the hinterland of the Central Plains, so he sent a table of wine and food with the shopkeeper, and everyone sat around each other like this, tasting those delicacies. Although the atmosphere was slightly awkward, it was also quite harmonious.
During the banquet, I only listened to Li Xiaoxiao chattering with Liu Shenyan about today's interesting news, she has lived in Yujian Peak since she was a child, and it seems that she has also gained a lot of knowledge. However, as everyone knows, everything she has experienced today is also the praise of Liu Shenyan in front of the Jade Sword Immortal.
The years are merciless.
"This table is full of dishes, but it still can't stop your mouth!"
Seeing Liu Shenyan's rather melancholy look, Qin Chuan laughed and stopped Li Xiaoxiao's words.
To say that this Li Xiaoxiao is indeed somewhat similar to Liu Shenyan back then. Liu Shenyan is now responsible for the master, presumably, he also knows that he has a long-term vision and plans to cultivate this Li Xiaoxiao.
"Senior sister, today I met a person who called himself Fang Yuxuan, and he asked me about you. ”
"Fang family?"
"Hmm. Senior sister knows?"
"Sort of. ”
Liu Shenyan responded, and glanced at Qin Chuan unconsciously. The first time she met Qin Chuan, she went to attend Fang Yuxuan's birthday party, at that time, in order to hide her identity, Qin Chuan still used Ye Qiuqi's name to show people, but Ye Qiuqi really came, which caused a lot of misunderstanding. How could she not remember these things?
However, seeing that Qin Chuan at this moment only cared about Zhang Luo and Ah Luo's leaves, Liu Shenyan was angry in his heart, glanced sideways, and then turned his face away. In an instant, his expression was tense.
"Bell ......"
With a sword roar, a swordsman was the first to emerge from Li Xiaoxiao's sheath, but then he was pressed down by Liu Shenyan with one hand. Qin Chuan and A Luo Ye also stopped their movements, their faces slightly gloomy.
I saw a black mist drifting in from the window, and it actually appeared in this Accord.
It's weird!
