Usnea anecdote

After a night's rest, Xing Qi felt much better. Every now and then, the demonic poison would flare up. There was no pattern to be found, and there was no way to solve it. He had been tormented since the war between immortals and demons.Normally, it's okay, but if he catches up with him and is about to lose his temper, his temper will be irritable and irritable, as if he's a different person, full of hostility, and he just wants to destroy something and vent it out.

What's more frightening is that his cultivation was greatly hindered because of this, and he couldn't go any further. Instead, after a certain violent attack, he fell to a level. Right now, he can only have the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul, but he has already He seldom sees outsiders, and those who do occasionally see him dare not venture to investigate his cultivation, so he has been kept unknown.

Only a few people know about this. Xing Qi has been living in the Ruwang Mountain for these years. While recovering from his injuries and trying to undo the evil poison, while looking for the whereabouts of Qi Gujian, he almost no longer appears in front of people, so he is seriously injured. Rumors of his demise intensified, and he didn't bother to come forward to refute the rumors. The once famous sword god gradually disappeared from people's sight.

He doesn't like to be lively. Originally, he was the only one living in Ruwang Mountain. Xuanyu and Tianwu were almost forced to be by his side. When recruiting newcomers, he had to face those elders of the same sect who wanted to force a few disciples for him.There were too many times, and the nagging Xing Qi was also bored, so he simply picked Xuan Yu and Tian Wu. As for who was standing behind the two, and who was his movements reported to, he knew it well, but Too lazy to bother.

So even though there were two more people, Xing Qi was not too close to them, occasionally pointing out spells and sword techniques, there was nothing else to say.

Xing Qi sat cross-legged on the bed to adjust his breath, Qi Gujian was placed on the table not far from him, the cracks all over the sword god made him feel a dull pain in his heart.Qi Gujian is the first sword he forged by himself. People and swords have the same mind and heart, and they are invincible.Later, Qi Gu Jian condensed out a sword spirit, and was more like a relative by his side, but he had lost Qi Gu for so many years.

Xing Qi sighed silently, concentrated his mind, and was about to continue practicing, but was attracted by a loud noise from outside - he just remembered that when he fell ill yesterday, he was afraid that the little demon cultivator would run out and confront Xuan Yu Tianwu and the others talked nonsense and forced Xiao Yaoxiu to live in his bedroom.Watching from time to time under my own nose, I am not afraid that something will happen to him.

The big vat for raising the withered lotus fell to the ground, and the water flowed all over the floor. The withered lotus was pulled out and randomly piled up under the tree roots. The naked little Yaoxiu grinned and sat on the ground with his feet hugged. Seeing Xing Qi Pushing open the door and coming out, he hurriedly jumped up and apologized: "I'm sorry, Master, I'm bothering you..."

Xing Qi originally suffered from the evil poison the night before and hadn't fully recovered yet. Seeing the mess now, his eyes darkened with anger, and he almost collapsed. He took a few breaths before he could control himself from slapping the little demon in front of him. Xiu He smashed this mess to pieces.

"What are you doing?!" There was an imperceptible tremor in the voice.

Yu Li thought of being scolded by Xing Qi for not wearing clothes last time, so he hurriedly grabbed the clothes and put them on his body, annoyed: "I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to sleep in the fish tank, but when I woke up in the morning, I thought I was still in the pond. Transformed into the vat and overturned the vat." After finishing speaking, he secretly glanced at Xing Qi's expression, and said hurriedly: "Master, I will clean up right away, you can go to rest for a while, I will keep my voice down." ..."

"My...withered leaf lotus, what's going on?"

dead leaves...lotus...

Yu Li panicked and looked at the bunch of dead leaves that he had randomly piled up under the tree. Knowing that he had gotten into trouble, he ran to the room and took out a copper basin, and scooped up the remaining water from the bottom of the tank into the basin. Put the rotten leaves crookedly into it, put it in front of Xing Qi, and said carefully: "Master, I, I don't know that this is still alive, I think it is withered, so...don't worry, Master, I It will definitely be kept alive!"

Xing Qi waved his hand, he didn't want to say anything anymore, this lotus was found by his only friend when he first fell into the demon poison, it germinated in three years, bloomed in three years, and borne seeds in three years.It is rumored that the dead leaf lotus heart has a miraculous effect on suppressing the demon poison, but in the past 100 years, I don’t know how many lotus seeds and lotus hearts I have eaten, but it is still getting worse.

Forget it, it's a useless thing anyway, it's ruined if it's destroyed, Xing Qi didn't want to say any more, turned around and entered the room, leaving Yu Li standing blankly with the basin in his arms, at a loss for what to do.

Yu Li finally went to Xuan Yu secretly.

When he saw the crooked lotus leaves in the copper basin, Xuan Yu's eyeballs almost fell off, and he was speechless for a long time.

"Xuanyu, tell me quickly, how to raise this one? I'm going to die of worry."

"You're still worried!" Xuan Yu patted Yu Li's head, and taught him a lesson: "Neither Tianwu nor I can enter Master's sleeping hall! How did you get in? Don't tell me you ran in, and overturned Master's bedroom." lotus?"

Yu Li rubbed his head, hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Master...Master asked me to live there."

Now Xuanyu's eyes widened, and after a long while, he nodded and said: "Amazing, you are really amazing." After finishing speaking, he said a little coldly: "There are Lingshi and Lingquan in the back mountain, and you can crush the Lingshi into mud. , keep it in a spiritual spring, and change the water every six hours, that's enough."

Yu Li was completely unaware of Xuan Yu's abnormality, thanked him happily, and ran out with the basin in his arms.

Behind him, Xuan Yu almost gritted his silver teeth, and when Yu Li was no longer visible, he smashed a set of teapots and cups, and ran out to find Tian Wu.

Yu Li suddenly became busy. The road behind him was far away, and it would take him a lot of time to transport the spirit stones and water from the spirit spring every day.Although he has demonic power, he is not particularly handy in using it. The mud he makes at the beginning is always mixed with large pieces of spirit stone fragments. Fortunately, this matter is not difficult, practice makes perfect, and it will be fine after a few tries.

The withered leaf lotus still looked half-dead. Yu Li had never planted flowers before, so he didn't know whether he had kept the lotus alive. He went to find Xuan Yu twice, but once he didn't see him, and once he was indifferent. It's ignorant and naive, and also understands that I am hated, so I don't want to make fun of myself anymore.

During the period, Xing Qi saw him tossing the vat of lotus, and he was so speechless that he let it go. It's fresh and will be ready in a few days.

After probing a few times, Xing Qi has now basically confirmed that this little demon cultivator of unknown origin has no special thoughts, but is really stupid, with low mana and doesn't understand anything, the demon cultivators must be crazy Will send such a person to come to him.

But after getting along with him, I found that Xiao Yaoxiu is well-behaved and obedient. When he is not looking for him, he just stays quietly by himself. When he occasionally looks for him, he will immediately run to him and stare at people with his big eyes that always seem to be wet. , the admiration and worship in his eyes almost overflowed.Xing Qi knew that it was because he had dreamed about him before, so he had some strange and blind trust and longing for him, but who doesn't like being looked at like this?

Xing Qi is no exception.

He was indifferent since he was a child, and his parents focused on cultivation, so they didn't care much for him. When he was an adult, he lived alone in Ruwang Mountain, with no one else to accompany him except a sword.Outsiders praised him for his profound cultivation and superb swordsmanship. If they hold him and flatter him, whether they are sincere or have ulterior motives, as long as they have eyes, they can tell.

Very boring.

Now there is a lively little demon cultivator by his side, once Xing Qi seems to be in a good mood, he will rush to him immediately, serving tea and pouring water. An outrageously naive question.It was also during the conversation with Yu Li that Xing Qi truly believed that Yu Li had really dreamed about himself. He said that some of the places he dreamed of were visited by Xing Qi alone, and it is impossible for others to know, even if it is Someone who saw it would not say so clearly what he did there.

So getting along with Yu Li made Xing Qi feel more and more relaxed. He has never had any prejudice against righteousness or demon cultivation. Everyone is on the long road of cultivating immortals, and no one is more noble than the other.And no matter whether he is majestic or embarrassing, he has already been seen by the little demon cultivator, there is no need to hide, he is naturally relaxed.

Not long after, Yu Li has become Xing Qi's closest person in Ruwang Mountain, even Xuanyu and Tianwu can't compare, Xuanyu doesn't like to talk to Yu Li more and more, although Yu Li doesn't understand the reason , but he knows how to read people's faces, and won't take the initiative to find boredom.When he first came to Ruwang Mountain, the scene of sitting and chatting with Xuan Yu and Tian Wu, disappeared without a trace as if it had never happened.

Yu Li loves to cling to Xing Qi even more, and he can clearly see that the face that was always as cold as ice in the past is just a mask, but now that the mask has melted away, he can vaguely see Xing Qi's true face inside— ——It's just a young man who lacks friends and company, and doesn't know how to get along with others, so he has to put on a cold face.This is a completely different person from the unreachable Xing Qi in my dream, a real and warm person.Every time he thinks about this, Yu Li always feels that his heart will be beating uncontrollably, as if he has obtained a treasure that the world has never discovered, and the tension and excitement of holding the treasure in his arms makes him dizzy.

When Xing Qi's demon poison did not show up, he would also take Yu Li to the martial arts arena to teach him sword skills, but Yu Li's talent was limited, so Xing Qi had to take the next best thing and teach him some practical fighting moves. In order to avoid falling into disputes in the future, I don't even have the power to protect myself.Yu Li also understood this truth, he practiced very hard, after a day of practice, he was so tired that he would never fall asleep again at night.

The two lived together, becoming more and more harmonious and tacit, and the peaceful days passed by day by day, as if they had been with each other for many years.

It's just that the peace is occasionally broken. This morning, while he was still in a drowsy sleep, he heard an unfamiliar loud voice shouting outside: "Xing Qi! Come out! See what I brought you!"

Then there was a knock on the door.

Didn't hear Xing Qi's response, Yu Li was afraid that Xing Qi was poisoned by a demon and couldn't get up, so he hurriedly got up from the bed, opened the door and ran out.

A young man with the same stature as Xing Qi was standing at the gate of Xing Qi, slapping the door and shouting, "Xing Qi! Don't sleep! Get up and drink!"

"You, don't make noise..." Yu Li stopped silently when the young man heard his voice and turned around to look at him. The man looked handsome, but there was a hideous scar lying across his left side. On the face, from the forehead to the corner of the jaw, the skin and flesh turned out, as if it had been injured without any treatment, and it was allowed to become like this.It is also because of this that this person looks a little fierce and fierce, and he looks very difficult to mess with.Yu Li silently swallowed, and took a small step back.

"Yo!" The man stroked his chin, looked Yu Li up and down, walked up to Yu Li, pinched Yu Li's face frivolously, looked left and right: "Yo! This kid Xing Qi can do it! Quietly got a beauty to hide."

Yu Li was startled, and was crushed to death by him again, so he quickly stretched out his hand to grab the man's hand, trying to push him away.

"Lie Qing, what are you doing?"

Xing Qi's voice sounded, Lie Qing let go of his hand, walked up to Xing Qi, and said with a smile: "Where did you find the little beauty, you have a lot of luck!" He smiled and said seriously: "The demon poison has flared up again?"

Seeing Xing Qi nodded his head slightly, Yu Li's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have slept too deeply last night, so he didn't hear the slightest movement in Xing Qi's room.

In addition to the first time, he has seen Xing Qi having seizures three times. Although Xing Qi shut the door every time and set up restrictions to prevent him from entering, Yu Li still could not help being rude from time to time. Panting and roaring, he knew that the poison was very violent, and even though Xing Qi was famous as a sword god, when the demon poison broke out, there was no way to get rid of it.

It was also because of this that Yu Li vaguely understood why Xing Qi didn't let Xuan Yu and the others come into the dormitory, the madness and pain during the poisoning, it was really impossible for his disciples to witness it calmly.

Thinking of this, Yu Li walked up to Xing Qi and asked with concern: "Master, is it still uncomfortable?"

At this time, Xing Qi's complexion improved slightly, he waved his hands and said, "It's okay, I feel better this time." After speaking, he asked Lie Qing, "Why did you come here so early?"

Lie Qing raised the two exquisite wine jars in his hand, and said: "I got good wine, I will come to you soon."

Xing Qi was not polite to him, and told Yu Li: "Practice yourself today, and practice the moves I taught you yesterday."

After saying that, they were put on Lie Qing's shoulders, and the two went to the back of the mountain. After walking a few steps, Lie Qing turned around and saw that Yu Li was still standing there looking at them, then he blinked at Yu Li, very frivolous His appearance, on his disfigured and ferocious face, was very inconsistent.

Yu Li waited for him to turn his head away, then silently rolled his eyes, and went back to the room and continued to lie down.

He didn't understand why he felt a little unhappy, because although he had been with Xing Qi and had never left during this period of time, when Lie Qing came, he immediately showed estrangement?He seems to be familiar with Xing Qi, the sense of tacit understanding between old friends is between the two of them, standing by himself is a complete outsider...or Lie Qing can flirt with Xing Qi at will Shoulder to shoulder, intimacy and intimacy, and this is what you want to do but can't do?

Wrapped in the quilt, Yu Li tossed a few times on the bed, feeling a little sour and wronged in his heart.
