lead fades away

——Is it someone from Xiantrumen?

Hearing Xinyi say that he recognized that person, the first name that popped into Qingshi's mind was Han Shuo, but he immediately dismissed this ridiculous idea with self-deprecation.Leaving aside whether Han Shuo can be hard on women, even if he suddenly changed his ways and changed his path to water, he would have long since lost the ability to impregnate women.

Qingshi wanted to ask more questions, but Xinyi refused to talk about it, and only accepted the talisman elixir from Qingshi and thanked him solemnly, and then got up to leave.

"Friar Qing, if I can return safely, can I come here to visit again?" Before leaving, Xinyi asked.

"Come if you want, I won't leave for a while." Qing Shi shrugged.

"Then it's settled." Xinyi smiled and gave Qingshi a woman's Wanfu gift, then turned and walked out of the courtyard.

Looking at Xinyi's receding figure, Qingshi's expression gradually became serious.He could understand Xinyi's reluctance to reveal that person's name, but he couldn't understand why she wanted to keep that person's child.

——No way, like those stupid women, she thinks that she can save a man with a child?

The corners of his mouth curled up mockingly.

Yan Qingshi's mother seemed to have this idea in mind before giving birth to Yan Qingshi's son, but she waited until she was desperate and failed to get the result she wanted.The saddest thing is that the man who gave birth to her had no idea that she gave birth to a son for him.

—Woman, alas, woman!

Thinking of the female cultivators he had seen and heard about, Qingshi couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

The reason why high-ranking female cultivators are rare is largely because women spend most of their energy on illusory love. Knowing that the law of heaven is ruthless, they are still as uncontrollable as moths to a flame. Knowing that pregnancy and childbirth will damage themselves, they still enjoy it. ——Of course, without the existence of these dedicated female cultivators, the upper world would have cut off the inheritance long ago, and there would be no birth of him—although, to this day, he does not know who and who brought him up. Arrived in this world.

Qingshi disapproves of Xinyi's choice, but she doesn't want to interfere.That was her life, and she had the right to choose, even if she fell into the abyss and lost her life because of this, it would be no one's turn to comment.

——I just don’t know whether the child wants to be born or not.

Qing Shi sighed again, completely lost the mood to do things, stretched out his hand to close the courtyard door, and was about to turn around and go back to the house to calm down, but suddenly remembered that he was patronizing the shocking Xinyi's pregnancy, but forgot to ask her why she would treat Xianchu The movement of the door is so familiar.

But then Qing Shi shook his head and smiled wryly. In fact, he knew without asking, whoever told Xinyi about Xiantrumen's movements would be the father of the baby in Xinyi's womb. It couldn't be simpler.

——Forget it, anyway, it has nothing to do with him.

Qing Shi stopped thinking about it and walked back to the main house.

In the next few days, many monks came to the small town, including casual cultivators and sect disciples, and their cultivation bases were all above Foundation Establishment. Several appeared.

The increase in the number of foreign monks made the atmosphere in the town suddenly tense, and the news that there was an ancient fairy cave nearby spread like wildfire, which made many monks in the town moved their minds, and they all got ready to go and have a touch. luck.

As a result, more monks came to Qingshi to buy things. It used to be that they might not be able to make a deal for several days, but now they have to entertain several groups of guests a day.

In order to avoid "accidentally" encountering an acquaintance like Xinyi again, Qingshi hired the youngest son of a monk from a neighboring family to receive guests in the yard every day, while he pretended to be a eccentric Boss, hide in the house and never see anyone again.

But there are some things that cannot be avoided if you want to. On the third day after Xinyi came and left, Qingshi was finally blocked in the house by another acquaintance.

On this day, Qingshi's courtyard was not quiet until it was almost dark, and he was about to close the door of the hired little monk Guanggeer, when the bell at the courtyard door rang again.

Qing Shi couldn't help being tired for a while, and completely thought of closing the business and going out to escape for a few days.It's just that Brother Guang didn't figure out that his host didn't want to entertain any more guests. As soon as he heard the bell, he ran over dutifully and led the belated guest into the courtyard.

Because the person who came was not a high-level monk, he didn't pay any attention to it, just sat in the room and prepared to enjoy the spiritual tea he had just brewed.But as soon as he poured the brewed spiritual tea into the cup, Brother Guang walked in holding a stick-shaped spiritual weapon.

"Cultivator Qing, the guest who just arrived asks you to help him repair a spiritual weapon." Said, Brother Guang respectfully placed the spiritual weapon in front of Qingshi.

Seeing this spiritual weapon, the corners of Qingshi's mouth immediately collapsed.There was no other reason, he knew this spirit weapon, it was one of the orders that Xianpintang took over that year, Hao Wen's deity personally came forward to pick it up but Qingshi refused to give it to him.

The identity of the guests in the courtyard could not be more obvious.

Seeing Qingshi's uneasy expression, Brother Guang couldn't help but said, "But Cultivator Qing doesn't want to repair this spiritual weapon? Then I'll send it back and tell him that you can't repair it."

"No need." Qing Shi pouted, raised his hand to stop Brother Guang, "Go and invite him in, I'll talk to him myself."

Brother Guang couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he turned around and went out to invite someone.

After a while, Brother Guang led a Foundation Establishment cultivator in. Unsurprisingly, it was Hao Wen's outer body.Ten years have passed, not only the appearance of this body has not changed much, but even the cultivation level has not improved much.

Similarly, as soon as he stepped into the house and saw Qing Shi sitting at the table, the corners of Hao Wen's mouth curled up, obviously he had already expected who the owner of the yard was.

Qingshi ignored Hao Wen, and only told Brother Guang, "You don't have to work here, go out and take off the signboard, close the door, and then go home and rest."

"Yes." Brother Guang left in response, and closed the door winkingly.

Only then did Qing Shi turn around, looked at Hao Wen expressionlessly, and didn't invite him to a seat, nor did he intend to speak.

Hao Wen, however, sat down by himself without notice. He didn't sit opposite Qingshi, but chose the seat closest to Qingshi, where he could touch Qingshi himself by raising his hand.

"Long time no see." Hao Wen smiled and said proactively.

"I wish it would be longer." Qingshan snorted unceremoniously, and threw the spiritual weapon on the table back, "It's never used at all, what do you want me to fix?"

"Throwing stones to ask the way, you have to try whether you want to see me or not, so I can choose the way to see you." Hao Wen answered with a smile while catching the spirit weapon and putting it away.

"I really don't think it's necessary for us to meet." Qing Shi leaned back on the chair and looked at Hao Wen coldly.

"I think so too!" Hao Wen nodded approvingly, but then he looked at Qingshi helplessly but affectionately, and said word by word, "But I just want to see you, trapped in Jiuzhong I miss it the most when I’m in the sky, and I miss it even more when I’m out.”

It's a pity that Qingshi has long been unable to develop numbness and emotions other than troubles to such words. Hearing Hao Wen's affectionate confession, he said coldly without blinking his eyes, "Hao Xianjun, from now on, go north for three years. There is a big city thousands of miles away, and there is a branch of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in it, if you are dissatisfied with your desires, you can go there to vent your desires, don't be bored with me."

Hao Wen burst out laughing immediately, "Qing Shi, Qing Shi, after ten years of separation, your mouth is still so venomous and incomprehensible! However, you can't see your appearance in Xiantrumen, come to think of it, Is this your true nature?"

"Are you talking nonsense?" Qing Shi asked without answering.

"As long as I can meet and get along with you like now, even if it's a lie, I'm willing." Hao Wen smiled, and seeing that Qingshi's face was obviously turning dark, he quickly said seriously, "Baby, don't be upset... "

"Who are you calling baby?!" Qing Shi couldn't help but stare.What annoys him the most is being treated in this way of coaxing women, but Hao Wen doesn't know people, and always provokes his tolerance in terms of address.

"The darling?" Hao Wen blinked and asked tentatively.

Qingshi didn't answer any more, and directly raised his hand and squeezed the knuckles of his fist, making it clear that if Hao Wen dared to call out again, he would directly hit someone.

"Okay, Cultivator Qing, is this okay?" Hao Wen hurriedly raised his hand for forgiveness.

Qingshi snorted coldly and lowered his fist.

Hao Wen, however, laughed knowingly, "Wearing blue clothes, taking the homonym of green as your name, and taking green as your Taoist name, you really prefer this blue color—speaking of it, if you didn't use the name of monk Qing If you open such a shop again, I am afraid I will miss you."

"Why did you come here? It's also because of the ancient fairy cave?" Qing Shi didn't answer Hao Wen's words and asked instead.

"Probably." Hao Wen shrugged, "You should also know that I am selling news, but whenever there is a lively place, it is inevitable to go to join in."

"You hid in Xiantrumen back then, didn't you just want to hear the news?" Qing Shi couldn't help asking.He has always been curious about this matter, but after much deliberation, he couldn't figure out a plausible reason, and it turned out to be a fishbone stuck in his throat.

"Listening to the news is also one aspect. As soon as the news of Han Shuo's retreat and attack on Huashen came out, Huamei, the leader of our Jiuliu League, concluded that the Xianchumen would rise in the upper realm. It will be sold for a high price in the future. It’s just that Xiantrumen has always been exclusive, so it’s not easy to set up eyes and ears there. Those with good aptitude don’t want to waste time there, and those with poor aptitude won’t be reused.” Hao Wen replied, “But The reason why I go and not others is not that I want to go, it is all because I accidentally lost a bet with Huamei, and I had to fulfill the bet and suffer in the past. Just at that time, the body and the body had just finished training, and I also Wanting to try the effect, I entered Xiantrumen with this skin on my back."

Speaking of this, Hao Wen chuckled, "If you hadn't exposed me and made me unable to stay in Xiantrumen, I would have no reason to get rid of that boring disciple status and get out of the bet—so to speak, I still owe you a thank you."

——The truth is always so unsightly.

Qing Shi curled his lips, disappointed at such a reason.

"Okay, I've solved a doubt in your mind, now, isn't it your turn to clear it up for me?" Hao Wen raised his eyebrows and said.

"What do you suspect?" Qing Shi asked calmly.

"Of course, why did you leave Xiantrumen, and why did you choose the time when Jiuchongtian appeared?" Hao Wen stared into Qingshi's eyes and asked word by word.

"I don't want to stay anymore, so I just slipped away when no one is around!" Qing Shi replied calmly.

"So simple?" Hao Wen frowned slightly unhappily, "When you asked me, I answered the truth, now it's my turn to ask you, you shouldn't be perfunctory to me."

"Do you think this answer is perfunctory?" Qingshi raised the corners of his mouth jokingly, "Well, let me think about it... well, yes, it's because Fairy Fengxi and Han Zhenjun are both trapped in the Nine Heavens, obviously vicious. Duojishao——Once these two backers died, I would have no future in Xiantrumen, so I ran away and found another way out. Oh, and, even though the two of them came out later, I felt that Without the face to go back, I drifted here unknowingly."

"...Okay, I accept the former reason." Hao Wen sighed helplessly.

Qing Shi immediately showed a disdainful expression that should have been so long ago.

Seeing his appearance, Hao Wen laughed in relief, "Actually, it's fine if you leave, I have the chance to get along with you day and night only after you leave Xiantrumen, right?"

"You will feel uncomfortable if you don't show off in three sentences, won't you?" Qing Shi replied with a pair of white eyes disapprovingly.

"You misunderstood me again." Hao Wen put away his smile, leaned forward, and said seriously, "I'm not trying to be coquettish, I'm just expressing my heart."

Qing Shi remained unmoved, and glanced at him coldly, "Is the complaint over? Then leave quickly!"

"...you are really hard-hearted." Hao Wen curled his lips slightly dissatisfied, and retracted his body, "But, to be honest, I really like you very much. If one day you feel lonely, you might as well be serious. Consider me as a partner candidate. Although I am not as invincible as Han Shuo, when it comes to being a lover, I must be thousands of times stronger than him—at least, I think you can come and look for you, but he, It can never be done.”

"What on earth are you trying to say?" Sensing that there was something in Hao Wen's words, Qing Shi couldn't help squinting his eyes and asked coldly.

"Aren't you waiting for him here?" Hao Wen was also slightly taken aback.

"Huh?!" Qingshi's eyes widened, and he looked at Hao Wen in surprise, "Did you have your head squeezed by the door before you came? What is this about?"

"I thought it was you who asked him to elope but he let him go... Uh, it seems I was wrong." Hao Wen rubbed his chin and said to himself.

The corners of Qing Shi's mouth twitched suddenly, and he chased the guest with gritted teeth, "You should disappear from my eyes as soon as possible, if you stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll be 'poor hospitality'."

"Don't, don't, can't I stop guessing?" Hao Wen hurriedly raised his hand as a sign of surrender, but immediately said with a smile, "However, since you've been dawdling here, you must have a lot of leisure. Why don't you go with me to the ancient fairy cave to see the excitement?"

"Not interested." Qing replied without even thinking about it.

"You rejected it too quickly!" Hao Wen looked disappointed, but he didn't give up, and continued to lobby, "Go, go, what's the point of you staying here? Besides, it's the cave now. The news has not been fully confirmed, so only some low-ranking monks came. After a few days, the news is confirmed, and the Nascent Souls and even Huashen from the major immortal sects will come over. At that time, you will stay in this town Rico is not safe."

As he said that, Hao Wen put on an unpredictable expression that you understand and I understand.

"The so-called news may also be that the so-called Ancient Immortal Cave Mansion doesn't exist at all." Qing Shi pouted.

"Hehe, to tell you the truth, the news was released by our Jiuliu League. We know everything about it." Hao Wen said with a smile.

"If there is such a cave here, why don't you go in and explore it yourself, instead of attracting people to get a share?" Qing Shi frowned.

"Of course we have tried it." Hao Wen smiled slightly, but did not say the result of the test. He just changed the subject and continued, "You can use this matter as a bait, but what we lure is not people, but news— ——Visiting the ancients and exploring secluded places is extremely popular in the upper realm today, and many monks are desperately looking for the treasure caves left by the ancient monks. But the speed at which this matter became popular is too sudden, and it is impossible not to arouse people's imagination. It's just that we have investigated for a long time, and only found out that this matter was promoted by Wangyunzong, Xianchumen, Danmen and other big sects, but the reason for the promotion has never been known. Let the cave mansion spread the word, and use real bait to test what these great immortal sects are looking for."

"...Your curiosity is really strong." Qing Shi said expressionlessly.

"No way, this is the foundation of our lives!" Hao Wen said with a half-true smile, "What's more, if there is any change in the upper realm, it must be me and other casual cultivators who bear the brunt. If we can't get those big guys If I have a clear understanding of my thoughts, I am afraid that no matter what I do and what I get, I will end up making wedding dresses for others.”

Qing Shi was noncommittal to Hao Wen's statement, but still shook his head, "Then go and test it out, forgive me for not accompanying me."

"You are really stubborn." Hao Wen sighed, "Forget it, you can stay here, if Xian Chumen also chooses to stay here, you can also see with your own eyes how Han Shuo and the newcomer get married Yes, the violin and the se are compatible."

Qingshi didn't answer, but stared at Hao Wen with cold eyes.

"Oh, by the way, of course you don't know about it when you are stuck in such a small place." Hao Wen suddenly realized with a smile, "Now there is another one in the upper world who is exactly the same as Wuyou Xianjun Immortal Lord Yanxi, this person has the same appearance as Wuyou, but his temperament and demeanor are even better than Wuyou's back then. He is also a direct descendant of Yinyan in the Southwest, and he has attracted countless monks when he appeared. However, this person is not As long-sleeved and good at dancing like Immortal Wuyou, among the many admirers, I only have a special liking for Han Shuo and Han Zhenjun... Hehe, I don’t need to talk about what happened after this, right?”

——A person who is exactly the same as Wuyou?

Hearing this sentence, Qingshi couldn't help but suffocate his breath, and his left chest tightened for no reason, but then he raised the corner of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner.

——Actually, there is nothing surprising.

——He, hasn't he always loved Wuyou's face so much?
