The master of cultivating immortals protects me

The people in Xujiacheng are still concerned about the small things of tea, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea every day. It is not that they have not noticed the gloom over Xujiacheng these days, but even if they care, so what?

This is how people are. Young people are ambitious when they are not in the world. They dream of changing the world with their own power. It is not until they step into the turbulent world and are hit by the oncoming sand and stones that they can't move. Then they suddenly understand what they thought back then How naive.

With his legs crossed, Xu Xiaofeng casually flipped through the books in his hand: "Songhelou can't be limited to Xujiacheng, let alone take root in the Zongzheng country. With the gathering of the four major families this time, the food quality of Songhelou The reputation has already been spread, so strike while the iron is hot, first distribute the branches of Songhe Tower to the sphere of influence of the other three major families."

Xu Xiaofeng raised his eyes and looked at the four men under his seat, with a smile in his eyes, who would have known that Xu Xiaofeng was the boss behind Songhe Tower?

In the past ten years, Xu Xiaofeng was not only cultivating immortals. In the mortal world, a place full of interests and power, influence is far more useful than pure power.

Just relying on strength and not thinking is the act of a reckless man. Xu Xiaofeng doesn't have such a big heart to rule the world, he just wants to live more freely in this different world, and freedom always has a price.

Ten years ago, he relied on Zongzheng Longqing's compensation to get Songhe Tower into his pocket. In his spare time, he wrote a cookbook and completely improved the dishes of Songhe Tower. The few playboys who had a meal have now become his right-hand helpers.

Restaurants have always been the place where news circulates the fastest. This is the main reason why Xu Xiaofeng made up his mind to buy Songhe Tower. After all, he is still a member of the Xu family, and he is still alone after all. He never thought of letting himself dance after practicing. Breaking out of the ranks of mortals, news from the Songhe Tower regularly allows Xu Xiaofeng to know things no less than the people in Xujiacheng even though he is not in Xujiacheng.

After secretly ordering the important things, Xu Xiaofeng returned to the room in the west building as usual. When he opened the door and entered, he saw that his master was not the only one in the room. Xu Xiaofeng did not show any surprise. His five senses have become more and more acute since he entered the Nascent Soul Stage, and before he even entered the door, he realized that there was not only his master's aura in the room.

"Young Master Feng."

"Young Xia Feng."

The sounds of seven, seven, eight, eight and eight sounded like firecrackers at the same time, Xu Xiaofeng paused when he stepped into the room, he showed a kind smile on his face, looked past the people in the room and sat by the window not far away The man in the mahogany chair looked over and complained silently: Master, there are too many people here, right?

Fenghuang held the teacup with both hands and took a small sip, then glanced at Xu Xiaofeng lightly: "You're back?"

If you were Xu Xiaofeng, would you be depressed?

He must be depressed.

A good two-person independent tour with the master suddenly turned into a six-person group tour at this moment. Could he not be depressed?

Ever since the master hinted yesterday that it might be because of the loosening of the legendary seal that the activities of demons and ghosts have become more and more frequent in recent decades, the four major families and the imperial court immediately became tense.

Under the auspices and arrangements of Lord Longqing, the four major families worked together in a division of labor, temporarily leaving the gap to send their own children to investigate whether there were any monsters in the surrounding area, and at the same time to inquire about clues about the seal.

As the representative of the Zongzheng Dynasty, Lord Longqing must return to the Dynasty to report the matter to the Emperor, and Feng Huang and Xu Xiaofeng also expressed that they would go back to the mountains to see if they could get some useful information from their master.

Neither Prince Longqing nor the four major families fully trusted Xu Xiaofeng and the two of them. It was not easy to express doubts directly, and Prince Longqing was not at ease. A disciple from each faction is helping each other, which actually means monitoring.

If Fenghuang refused directly, it might arouse the suspicion of the four major families, so the master naturally accepted this "good intention" frankly.

Hence Xu Xiaofeng's extreme displeasure now.

There is no time to delay, Prince Longqing and Concubine Li went to Songhe Tower to bid farewell to Xu Xiaofeng's master and apprentice together early this morning, and made an appointment to meet in the imperial city in three months' time.

Without the influence of Baoling's aura, although Lord Longqing's attitude towards Xu Xiaofeng was gentle and amiable, he was also less eager. This made Xu Xiaofeng feel relieved, he really wasn't used to a man being tired of him at all. Tired and crooked, especially that person is Zongzheng Longqing.

It's strange to say, ever since he was injured that day and was rescued by Master, Xu Xiaofeng found that he no longer had that faint fragrance on his body.

This kind of trivial matter did not attract much attention to Xu Xiaofeng, at the moment his mind was completely focused on those monsters hiding behind the scenes, and the journey he and his master were about to continue.

Xu Xiaofeng and his master, together with four people sent by the four major families, a total of six monks left Songhe Tower at the same time, four men, two women and three carriages, pushing the wheels that were turning slowly in the bleak wind of late autumn. Far away from Xujia City, which has stood for thousands of years.

Among the four major families, the person sent by the Xu family is Xu Xiaobei who is good at alchemy, the Gongsun family is naturally the elder brother Gongsun Zhuang with the highest comprehensive ability, the younger sister of the Chen family, Chen Linger, is lively and good at disguise, and Zhao Qingfeng, who is good at the Five Elements Formation, is from the Zhao family.

The crowd hired three grooms, even monks with supernatural powers were flesh and blood, and the wind in late autumn was too cold, so they preferred to stay in a carriage that could shelter them from the wind and rain.

Sure enough, less than half an hour after leaving Xujiacheng, the dark clouds began to fall from the sky that seemed to be overwhelmed? ? ? ?The rain, the rain crackled on the gray road and mixed with the soil into a pool of sludge, and when the squeaking carriage wheels rolled over the deep pits that had accumulated rainwater, they splashed gray mud marks. .

Xu Xiaofeng and Feng Huang rode alone in a carriage, and their carriage was at the forefront to lead the way. The carriages were all prepared by the four major families in advance, and the extra spacious carriage compartment was more than enough to accommodate two adults to lie down.

"Master, do the Four Great Seals really exist?"

After all, the weather is getting colder and colder. The solid pear wood compartment is covered with two layers of cushions. One is a hand-woven patterned blanket that is stronger, and the other is a softer and more comfortable fur blanket. Under the two layers of blankets are but The movable wooden board is opened, and there are several hidden compartments inside, and some drinks, food and medicinal materials are placed in the hidden compartments for emergency needs.

The four big families are the four big families, and they are generous and considerate.

Sitting cross-legged on the blanket, Feng Huang nodded, the rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the bean-sized raindrops made a crackling sound on the carriage, just like pearls with broken strings hitting a jade plate.

It stands to reason that these chaotic sounds would only upset Xu Xiaofeng, but now that he was sitting with his master, in a warm carriage, he felt extraordinarily peaceful.

Noticing Master's hands casually placed on his knees, Xu Xiaofeng suddenly felt an urge to cover Master's hands in his bosom.

"The Son God Realm has set up four major seals for tens of thousands of years. It is normal for these seals to loosen over time..." The voice of the calm narration suddenly paused, Fenghuang looked slightly surprised, his hands were touched by Xu Xiaofeng He was caught, "Xiaofeng?"

After leaving the closed-door retreat period, although the fused Baoling and Tianling will have a certain degree of mutual influence, but this influence has become very small, but Xu Xiaofeng's hands are suddenly held, touched by his Tianling. When encountering it, Fenghuang still couldn't ignore the comfort and satisfaction rising in his heart.

"Master, why are your hands so cold? I thought only the avatar was cold."

Frowning slightly, when Xu Xiaofeng was still hesitating just now, his body had already taken the master's hands, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the surprise on the master's face, he knew that his behavior was a bit intimate, but he just didn't want to Let go of the master's hand, especially the hands are still so cold.

Xu Xiaofeng's own hand was as warm as if it had been roasted by a fire. He held the master's hand, and began to massage carefully with the warm fingertips from the master's little finger until the finger was warmed. To warm the other finger.

What Fenghuang felt that night was the pain, joy, and loss of control that he had never experienced before, like a dormant volcano erupting and spewing out flames and thick smoke, like seawater roaring and rolling up huge waves to engulf the land, like an earthquake that shattered the earth. Shake, even the rubbing of ears and temples can't compare to the lingering touch brought by the intertwining of each other's fingers.

The astonishment in his eyes was quickly swallowed by the warm sea water, and he gradually withdrew the body-protecting aura used to resist the cold. Fenghuang quietly lowered his voice, and the voice overflowing from his throat was like the grass blowing by the spring breeze, deep but exceptionally deep. Touching people's hearts, Xu Xiaofeng's heart started beating again numb while carrying the electricity.

"Probably because of saving you that day, I lost a lot of mana for my teacher."

There was no tone of blame, but the calm attitude of narrating made Xu Xiaofeng feel more anxious and blamed himself. Xu Xiaofeng already believed in his heart that the master had consumed too much mana to save him, so that his body was cold.

He has always regarded the master as an omnipotent god-like existence, but the master is also a person of flesh and blood, who will be tired and injured, Xu Xiaofeng wished he could slap himself twice.

"Then why don't you rest for a while, master."

"Well, call me again when you get there."

Unexpectedly, Feng Huang didn't choose to sit and rest like before, and just fell down like an ordinary person, resting on Xu Xiaofeng's legs and closing his eyes.
