Qixuan

"Ah Chen, you're finally back." Bai Xue poked her head out of the room with a smile, and the faint candlelight overflowed from behind her, as if it could dispel the chill in the whole body of the traveler who brought back the coir raindrops.

Bai Xue limped out of the room on a simple crutch, just now she saw Yan Heng behind Ji Chen, her smile froze on her face, she slightly hid from Ji Chen's side, timidly He asked, "Ah Chen, this is..."

Ji Chen stepped forward to support Bai Xue, "Didn't you twist your ankle? Why did you come out? He is my friend, he did me a little favor today, and he will stay overnight tonight."

After hearing this, Bai Xue showed a little smile, leaned over and saluted, "The humble house is simple, please forgive me, my lord."

Yan Heng replied: "Miss Bai speaks seriously, I'm bothering you."

Ji Chen stuffed Luan Qincheng's medicine into Bai Xue's hand and said, "There's nothing to forgive or not, it was given to me by that kid from the Luan family, he was sneaking around the door tonight just to deliver the medicine to you. "

Bai Xue asked: "Since we are borrowing, do you need me to tidy up the house on the west side?"

Ji Chen waved his hands and said, "They're all big men, so don't bother, he'll just squeeze me in tonight. Shouldn't your focus be on medicine?"

Bai Xue said angrily: "You boy, Mr. Luan is not the point, this is your friend right now, so you can't neglect it."

Ji Chen wondered: "Is Luan Qincheng your sweetheart? You already said that this is my friend, so this friend is mine, it's mine, I just treat him well."

Bai Xue has never quarreled with Ji Chen, she looked at Yan Heng apologetically, leaned over and saluted, "Young Master, you have neglected me."

Bai Xue went back to the room leaning on crutches, Ji Chen shrugged, he beckoned Yan Heng to the kitchen.

The porridge pot was still warm on the stove, Ji Chen tested it with his hands, filled a bowl and handed it to Yan Heng, he smiled maliciously: "Sister Bai's porridge is absolutely delicious."

After tasting it, Yan Heng said, "Rehmannia glutinosa and donkey-hide gelatin are both things that replenish energy and blood."

Ji Chen stirred the somewhat sticky porridge with a spoon, and his facial features twisted together, "Are there so many things? Anyway, I think it's sour and bitter, it's almost fatal."

After Yan Heng finished his porridge, he put the bowl on the stove, "Miss Bai also has a kind heart."

Ji Chen rolled his eyes, and finished the porridge with a disheveled face, "I deserve it, the price of lying to her back then was to drink this kind of porridge that was difficult to swallow."

Yan Heng put away the two bowls, rinsed them with clean water, and said, "Miss Bai should not be the kind of person who cares about everything."

"I know she's doing it for my own good. I knew I had lied to her for another reason." Ji Chen sat on the stove, kicking his feet every now and then.

Yan Heng asked: "What did you lie to her?"

Ji Chen dejectedly said: "After cheating the little girl's heart and being hurt by me, her eyesight and brain are not working well, so she switched to the arms of that foolish boy surnamed Luan."

"Ah Chen, stop talking nonsense." Bai Xue's voice came over, somewhat annoyed.

Ji Chen jumped off the stove with a smile on his face, and while pushing Yan Heng, he whispered, "She hasn't slept yet, let's go back to the room to talk."

Ji Chen pushed the door open and went in to light the lamp, the pea-sized flames dyed the cabin a warm color.

"You don't mind if I change the medicine." After Ji Chen finished speaking, he had already untied his belt, and he took off the bandage, and the wound on his heart immediately gushed out fresh blood.

Yan Heng's eyebrows frowned, he turned to Ji Chen and half knelt down, carefully examined his wound, there was still traces of sword energy remaining on it, "Did you hurt yourself?"

Yan Heng's voice had a slight sluggishness that could not be detected.

Ji Chen pressed the area around the wound, and a layer of cold sweat immediately burst out on his forehead, "It's as small as a sesame seed, I haven't read the almanac recently when I went out, so I have been unlucky."

Yan Heng asked: "Why?"

Ji Chen blinked his eyes, of course he knew that Yan Heng's question was not about why he didn't read the calendar when he went out, Ji Chen was about to make up an excuse to fool Yan Heng, but he twirled his tongue twice on the excuse, but spit out the truth , "For refining."

He took out a black longbow made of glass like glass from the ring, Ji Chen tried the string of the bow, and waved it in front of Yan Heng as if showing off.

Yan Heng shook his head, he gently pressed his palm on Ji Chen's wound, and a strong true energy passed along Yan Heng's palm into Ji Chen's body.

Distraction period? !

Ji Chen pulled Yan Heng's hand away, saw Yan Heng's surprised eyes, and explained in panic: "Hey, my little beauty, it's useless for you to do things like this, the devil's physique is different from your cultivation People, as long as the wound is not fatal, it will heal immediately. I want to take the blood refiner, and I use the Langya Sword. The wound is not so easy to heal, don't waste your true energy."

Ji Chen said casually: "It's just a few days later to heal, it's nothing serious, just relax."

Yan Heng pursed his lips and said, "I understand."

The corners of Yan Heng's eyes were a little red when viewed from Ji Chen's angle, and he froze for a moment, Ji Chen suddenly wanted to touch Yan Heng's face, beautiful things always attract others to look at them more, but Yan Heng is now The appearance made Ji Chen's heart feel so soft for no reason.

But he is like an abandoned cub, you can only stand still and hesitate, because you don't know whether its fangs and claws will be aimed at you in the next moment.

Yan Heng's small appearance is very suitable for Ji Chen's appetite, as it was ten years ago, Ji Chen clenched his hands to restrain his thoughts that were getting farther and farther away.

Don't be too impulsive, don't scare him, Ji Chen told himself in his heart.

Ji Chen coughed a few times and said, "Actually, Sister Bai likes that silly boy in her heart, but Luan Qincheng is the only son of member Luan, and Sister Bai is afraid that she is not good enough for him. He is also a counselor, even if he is afraid of him Father doesn't want to give up on Sister Bai."

Yan Heng looked at Ji Chen's hand clenched into a fist, and he stretched out his hand to cover Ji Chen's curled fingers.

Ji Chen bit the tip of his tongue, even though he was enjoying himself in all aspects, he couldn't understand the meaning of Yan Heng's little gesture.

Yan Heng let out a breath slowly, he adjusted his mood and said: "Why? Miss Bai is well educated, she should be a girl of everyone."

Ji Chen pointed to the bench next to him with his chin, motioning for Yan Heng to sit over, he applied the medicine neatly, wrapped the bandage, and said while tying his clothes, "Ye Feng and I are in the same bandit The nest found Sister Bai. Do you know what a bandit nest is? Sister Bai’s mother was robbed up the mountain. She only knew that her mother didn’t know her father. You should have seen it just now. A erythema, probably because of this erythema, made her feel that beautiful children can only be born if parents truly love each other, and she felt that she was a piece of filth."

After Ji Chen finished speaking, he suddenly laughed, and he stretched out his hand to pour a cup of tea for Yan Heng, "Do you think she is stupid, she always uses such strange words to remind her of her origin."

Immediately, Ji Chen got up and lit the stove in the room.

Yan Heng said: "No, people like Miss Bai are the clearest about what they want,"

Ji Chen lowered his head and licked every tooth with his tongue. Yan Heng's words were to remind him that this kind of people would not have idiotic dreams. Walk diligently, and believe that God rewards those who work hard.

In fact, Yan Heng is also such a person, Ji Chen thought in his heart, accidentally bit his tongue, and woke up from his dreaming.

Ji Chen raised his head and said with a smile: "That's right, I don't need to worry about anything. It's getting late, you should go to bed earlier, I'll go out for a meeting, and I won't disturb you."

Yan Heng nodded, Ji Chen opened the door and walked out, Yan Heng watched Ji Chen sitting on the bench in the yard, the snow had stopped, the world was eerily quiet.

Snow light reflected on the window paper, reminding us of the day.

Yan Heng blew out the candle, and the black cloak quickly wrapped him up, pulling him out of the room.

In the quiet Beiyan Mountain, the bonfire in a cave flickers on and off.

A strong wind hit, the flame struggled several times and finally turned into a puff of green smoke, Gongsun Yuebai's face was completely hidden in the darkness.

The cold wind came and went outside, and the voice whimpered.

"It's you again." Gongsun Yuebai raised his head and glanced at the person who came. She was the man in black that he met the day before yesterday. Without saying a word, this man gave her the order to stop Ji Chen today.

"Are you here to ask me to ask for the Wind Order?" Gongsun Yuebai sneered, "I helped you block that kid today."

"Thank you."

Gongsunyue stared at the man in black with a white smile.

The man in black chuckled, "It seems that Lord Gongsun wants to take advantage of me?"

"That's right, I want to know why you asked me to stop Ji Chen." Saying that, Gongsun Yuebai stood up, she was a woman but her stature was comparable to a man's, she looked like a man in black when she stood up .

The man in black said: "Master Gongsun doesn't need to know."

Gongsun Yuebai lowered his eyes, "Then change the question."

The moment Gongsun Yuebai raised her eyes, she had already landed in front of the man in black, with the dagger resting on his neck, "Who are you?"

The man in black stretched his hand away from the dagger, and said with a smile, "We meet by chance, Lord Gongsun, it's better not to know."

Gongsun Yuebai put away the dagger, and threw the Qingfeng Ling to the man in black, "Please go ahead, I hope the master of the demon world won't know about your private activities."

"Lend your blessings."

Ji Chen's boots stepped on the snow and made a "creaking" sound, Ye Feng flew out of the ring, glanced at the room and said, "He's gone."

Ji Chen responded casually, he was completely immersed in the remaining warmth in his hands, Ji Chen grabbed the legs of the bench and stood it up, the snowdrifts fell down until it was clean, Ji Chen Just put the bench upright and sat on it.

Ye Feng felt that something was wrong with Ji Chen, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Ji Chen looked back at the darkened room, patted the stool beside him and said, "I always feel that something is wrong, I didn't think about it before, but now I find that there are many places that are not worth pondering. Help me Analyze it."

"The first thing, the two of us found this half jade flute in my father's study. This thing has been kept in my father's place for an unknown time. Blow the tune. Do you think my father has encountered the same thing?"

"The second thing is that Gongsun Yuebai is preparing to refine the swords of the gods. You have told me that she has evil intentions. Of course, my father also knows that she has made such a big commotion in Beiyan City that even Fairy Miaoyin has come out of the mountain. , My father is a busy man, he cares more about Moxiu than me, he is often so busy that he doesn't even care about me, why didn't he come forward to stop her?"

"The third thing, how did Gongsun Yuebai find me? Could it be because of the devil energy I released?"

"The fourth thing, I also just remembered that I broke Gongsun Yuebai's barrier with the formula of Qingfengling. Who gave Gongsun Yuebai the Qingfengling?"

Ye Feng patiently listened to Ji Chen's words, he pondered for a moment to organize his thoughts and said: "If these four things are classified as a coincidence, Gongsun Yuebai killed people in Beiyan City to make weapons, and the Qin family couldn't find the murderer, so People from Qixuan Mountain were invited, and we happened to come to Beiyan City chasing the music of the jade flute, so this coincidence is too deliberate."

Ye Feng continued: "Secondly, I don't know if you still remember what Immortal Fairy Nine Tails said, asking you to help Lin Ning. So, what is the relationship between Immortal Nine Tails and Lin Ning?"

Ji Chen rubbed his chin, "The demon cultivator would never choose the same place for killing and refining weapons. Too many people dying in the same place will cause unnecessary trouble. Gongsun Yuebai dared to kill people in Beiyan City so boldly. The Lord who supported her is definitely not simple. Adding us together, it feels like someone did it on purpose, unless this person wants us to discover something, there are some interesting things in this Beiyan City where fish and dragons are mixed. What needs to be discovered by us pawns.”

Ye Feng asked back: "Gongsun Yuebai's ghost way is so advanced, he must have joined the ghost clan. Does the chaotic ghost clan have a new master?"

Ji Chen rubbed his frozen face. He felt that some things were like balls of thread. The more they were organized, the more chaotic they became, until finally they became disorganized. He couldn't find the thread ends. He felt his head was about to explode, so he said casually: "You I didn’t even feel it, where would I know?”

Just as Ye Feng was about to say something, he froze in place as soon as he opened his mouth. Ye Feng subconsciously looked towards Ji Chen's room.

Ji Chen shunned the hair that had been caught like a doghouse, without raising his head, he said, "Why didn't you say anything all of a sudden?"

Ye Feng withdrew his gaze and said, "It's nothing, it's too late, go back to sleep."

Ji Chen nodded, and returned to the room with heavy steps. He cautiously opened the door, and was stunned for a moment. He looked at the bed through the light outside. It was quite stable, and the hands exposed outside the quilt had already been frozen cold.

Ji Chen added a few more pieces of charcoal, and walked over carefully to help Yan Heng pull the quilt, and put his hands back for him.

He looked at Yan Heng carefully by the moonlight, his thick eyelashes trembled unnaturally because of the dream, his high nose bridge buried one corner of his eye in the shadow, and his usually gentle facial lines changed when his muscles relaxed. Be sharp.

As the saying goes, there are bandits and gentlemen, who are as sharp as cutting, and as sharp as grinding.

Ji Chen sighed silently and sat back in front of the table. He didn't know how he fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar top of the bed and the blue-gray curtain hanging beside him. The knots on the veil on the side that got up were crooked, which was not Ye Feng's trick at first glance.

"Are you awake?" When Yan Heng came in with the tub, he happened to see Ji Chen staring at the bed curtain in a daze.

Ji Chen lifted the quilt and sat up. He yawned and said, "Where's Ye Feng? I feel a little embarrassed to bother the little beauty." He remembered that it was Yan Heng who held the umbrella and washed the dishes yesterday.

Yan Heng replied: "He went out and said he would be back in a while." He reached out and handed the wet towel to Ji Chen.

The strength of twisting the towel was somewhat weak, and the dripping water slid down Ji Chen's wrist and into the sleeve.

Ji Chen didn't care, and wiped his face with a towel.

"By the way, how do you Qixuanshan deal with the ghosts?" Ji Chen glanced at Yan Heng's clothes casually, and found that he had already changed Qixuanshan's conspicuous Qinglian school uniform.

However, in Ji Chen's eyes, the clothes were no different from the Qixuanshan school uniform without the green lotus pattern.

Yan Heng took the towel and said, "If you encounter something that cannot be purified, kill it immediately."

"Then tell me, if the soul that has been refined can be separated, is there any possibility of purification?" Ji Chen tore off his coat from the hanger and put it on.

Yan Heng said: "If the soul is unconscious and willing to degenerate, the possibility of being purified is very small. However, Zhou Qin can still give it a try."

Ji Chen looked at Yan Heng suddenly, and said excitedly: "Don't you have Zhou Qin still on you? Then the whole thing will be easier!"

Ye Feng came back from the outside with a solemn expression. He nodded to Yan Heng first, and then walked directly to Ji Chen. Ye Feng took out a letter and handed it to Ji Chen, "My lord, your letter."

Ji Chen frowned, pinched the envelope and said, "Give me a name and say it's for me?"

Ye Feng nodded.

Yan Heng picked up the wooden basin and walked out knowingly.

Ji Chen opened the envelope and quickly glanced at the contents inside. When he saw the last word, the paper and the envelope turned to ashes like withered flowers.

Ji Chen asked, "Has Sister Bai gone out?"

"I went up the mountain early in the morning."

Ji Chen muttered, "I twisted my foot and went up the mountain."

Ye Feng asked: "Whose letter is it?"

Ji Chen shook his head, "This person asked me to meet, he only wrote the time and place."

Ye Feng opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment.

Ji Chen patted the ashes in his hands, "You've never been like this before, why have you become worried recently?"

"Is that really the child from ten years ago?" Ye Feng looked out of the window, Yan Heng was busy with his back to them in white clothes, the sunlight left a touch of pale gold on his body.

Yan Heng was brought back to Qixuan Mountain by Venerable Xuan Qingzi. At that time, the Yan family was in decline, and could not even raise a baby in swaddle, so they had to abandon it in the wild.Venerable Xuanqingzi was kind-hearted, so he brought him back to Qixuan Mountain to raise him, and taught him carefully when he grew up.

Fortunately, Yan Heng worked very hard and did not disappoint Xuan Qingzi's expectations. In addition to his high talent, he quickly surpassed the disciples of the same class or even the previous ones.

However, every day from Fengxue Valley back to Qixuan Mountain until now, he has swung his sword a hundred thousand times a day, rain or shine, in fact Yan Heng didn't need to do this at all, it's all because of the young man's carelessness.

"Ten years ago, he was still at the golden core stage, but now he has reached the stage of distraction. He really deserves to be called a genius."

Ji Chen said in surprise: "Yo, it's really a thousand-year-old iron tree blooming, you actually know how to praise people, tsk tsk, you are very dull, you always praise me, anyway, I am also a master of crafting, you can also praise me." Hearing what that white shadow said, if I was born in the prehistoric period, maybe I made one of the artifacts that have been handed down through the ages."

Ye Feng was used to Ji Chen's shameless behavior, so he raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Ji Chen was deeply distressed and said: "We have known each other for so many years, what will you do if you compliment me?" After finishing speaking, he walked out of the room without looking back.

Ye Feng looked at Yan Heng who was standing in the yard talking with Ji Chen, and frowned tightly.

Ten years ago, Yan Heng showed a calmness that didn't match his age, Ye Feng always felt that putting Yan Heng next to Ji Chen was like a poisonous snake that would jump out at any time.

Ye Feng moved his fingers, the aura within a radius of a hundred miles was within his range of perception, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the yard, just in time to see Yan Heng turning his head to show him a friendly smile.

Within a hundred miles, the atmosphere of Bu Zhouqin and Qingfengling was particularly strong, and it happened to be in this courtyard that accommodated three people.
