Unconsciously, the wind and snow became stronger, and there were suddenly waves of crunching footsteps in the snow not far away.

Ah Xiu only saw a small red dot floating in the air.

When the figure came closer, she could see clearly that it was a burning paper roll, which was held by the man in his mouth.

The man was dressed in black, with a wine gourd on his waist, and the long sword behind him was particularly conspicuous.

It was Shi Qiuqi.

Yes, Chang Qing had long known that Shi Qiuqi's strength must be higher than Dian San, and if he dealt with him together, he would have no chance of winning.

But Shi Qiuqi's problem was not difficult to solve.

It was because when Shi Qiuqi gave Youbi the bamboo flute, he was by his side, and he even took the risk to ask for the bamboo flute and touched it carefully.

At that time, he thought of a way to deal with Shi Qiuqi.

So after he used the reverse method to make Yunpeng Wing Ash, he also made an identical bamboo flute at the same time, just to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

He had long told Baihua Remnant Soul that he must pay attention to the bamboo flute on Youbi and not let her play it.

As the remnant soul left by the evil saint, Baihua Remnant Soul has the strength of a venerable, so it is easy for him to do this.

As early as when Youbi and the judges entered Baihua Cave, they had already been poisoned by Baihua Remnant Soul without knowing it.

In the real battle, the black air and black fog were only visible poisons, the purpose was to make them ignore the real invisible poison.

However, in order to allow the holy flesh to absorb more power, Changqing arranged for Baihua Remnant Soul to try not to hurt those judges, let alone kill them, but to weaken them as much as possible and let them escape from Baihua Cave without any defense.

The most important arrangement is to catch Youbi and never let Youbi play the bamboo flute.

But this is too simple for Baihua Remnant Soul.

Youbi's realm is not high. For a strong man of Baihua Remnant Soul's realm, a person who has been poisoned can be manipulated by others.

That's why the previous scene happened, Youbi suddenly ran from the dustless realm created by Fan Lie to the black fog.

In fact, it was just because she was poisoned by the remnant soul of Baihua.

Haitang was hovering in the surrounding black fog, and when Youbi suddenly came out, she swooped down and abducted Youbi.

From the moment they entered the Baihua Cave, everything was under the control of the remnant soul.

So the flute sound that Shi Qiuqi heard was not played by Youbi at all.

What he heard was the flute sound that Ah Xiu played after walking away in advance under the arrangement of Changqing.

The purpose was to lead him away and delay time so that Changqing would not encounter Shi Qiuqi before everything was resolved.

But Ah Xiu didn't know all this.

She only knew that after blowing the bamboo flute, the enemies of Master Changqing would be attracted, and while buying time for Master Changqing, the person who played the flute would definitely die.

The reason why Chang Qing did not arrange any ambush or other arrangements after playing the flute was not that he did not want to commit more murders.

But he felt that with Shi Qiuqi's strength, no matter how many arrangements he made, it would be futile and would not delay time at all.

It is estimated that the result of a mortal without cultivation and a group of strong men in the realm of Xuyu facing Shi Qiuqi should be no different.

So Chang Qing only needs to make sure that the flute will sound. As for who plays it, it is not important. It is the distance that delays time, not the person who plays the flute.

As long as the person who plays the flute is not A Xiu, Dan Ji's appearance is too conspicuous, Shi Qiuqi will not be without impression, and will definitely suspect Chang Qing, which will bring hidden dangers to him in the future.

Although there is no impenetrable wall in the world, it is difficult for him to make such a big noise in Yuguan Mountain Range without being noticed by the gods and ghosts.

But things that can be avoided in advance by human power need to be avoided as much as possible.

But for some reason, A Xiu still stayed.

Shi Qiuqi saw Ah Xiu in front of him, without any expression, just put his hand on the hilt behind his back.

But immediately, he saw the bamboo flute in Ah Xiu's hand. He was slightly startled and put down his hand that was about to draw the sword.

He took a deep breath, spit out the cigarette in his mouth, coughed a few times, and asked.

"Ahem... Did you play the flute?"

Ah Xiu nodded. She didn't know the man in front of her who was wearing a bamboo hat and had some stubble. She imagined that the enemy of Master Changqing might be various hideous and terrifying appearances, or a righteous immortal with a fairy-like appearance.

But she didn't expect that there would be such a swordsman who looked a little ordinary.

Seeing Ah Xiu admit it, Shi Qiuqi frowned and asked.

"Where did you get your flute? Where is Youbi?"

His bamboo flute is not an ordinary flute, but a spiritual treasure.

Although it is not very precious, it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to imitate it., especially the evil way, imitating this thing is simply courting death.

Ah Xiu did not answer this time, just kept silent.

Shi Qiuqi was not in a hurry, he looked around casually, and confirmed that there was no one here except this woman.

He couldn't help but look at this woman again.

The woman was dressed in red, and her figure was extremely graceful, but it was a pity that her whole face was completely unrecognizable. Even Shi Qiuqi, who had seen a lot of wind and waves, couldn't help shaking his head.

More importantly, this woman seemed to be just an ordinary person, not even a cultivator.

"Girl, cough cough... This bamboo flute is a special spiritual treasure of Tianjian Pavilion, and the only one that can make this sound is the one in your hand. There is no second one in the world. Where did you get this flute? Did you get it from a strange girl in black? Cough cough... Tell me where she is."

He couldn't stop coughing a few times and asked seriously.

Ah Xiu still shook her head silently.

Shi Qiuqi did not regard this woman as an evil or an enemy. He could hardly feel any spiritual fluctuations from this woman. She was not only a mortal, but there was no trace of being used to control spirits on her body. It was completely impossible to tell what kind of trap this was.

The only place with spiritual power on the woman was a small seal tightly clenched in her hand, which seemed to be some kind of spiritual treasure.

"Miss, can you tell me why you are playing the flute here, cough cough cough... Who asked you to play here?"

Shi Qiuqi was sure that Youbi was definitely not here, but this woman was his only clue at the moment, so he could only continue to ask.

But Ah Xiu obviously couldn't answer him, but asked a strange question instead.

"Why do you always cough?"

Shi Qiuqi was slightly stunned by the question, but still answered.

"Cough cough... I'm sorry to make you laugh, I have lung disease and I'm not in good health, so I always cough. But you, you are so beautiful, why do you want to destroy your face?"

It's always a good thing to be able to speak, so Shi Qiuqi could only follow her words and ask back.

"How do you know, I did it myself."

A Xiu asked.

Shi Qiuqi smiled.

"I am a sword cultivator, I often use swords, and I know from the marks on the girl's face that she must have cut herself."

"Sword cultivator... why are you here?"

"I'm here to find someone, girl..."

Before Shi Qiuqi finished speaking, A Xiu in front of him suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve and stabbed him straight.
