Qi Luo Man Ting Fang in the old days

Bai Xiuning didn't want Haoyuan to catch up again, so he returned to Qilian Mountain without hesitation.

He locked himself in the room, and no one came.He came out two days later, went to Bai Zijian, and conveyed Haoyuan's original words.

Seeing that his expression was normal, Bai Zijian remembered that he had been behind closed doors for the past two days, so he asked with concern if something happened.

Bai Xiuning bowed to him, and said calmly: "Thank you for your concern, Master, this disciple is just a little tired."

Bai Zijian checked his pulse for a while, and after confirming that he was all right, he said, "You have been investigating the matter of the living corpses yourself for more than a month, why don't you take a break for a while and let Xiuting help you."

Bai Xiuning: "Brother is responsible for the defense of Qilian Mountain, so he must not leave. The disciple is already safe, so there is no need for Master to worry."

Bai Zijian stroked his long beard and sighed: "Xiu Ning, you should learn to let go instead of doing things yourself. The teacher asked you to be the assistant king, because you want you to look after Bai for the teacher, not for you to think hard. Forget about yourself."

Bai Xiuning: "Disciple understands, but Master really doesn't need to worry about it. Disciple will arrange it properly. I wonder if Master has found out the code word in those four letters?"

He didn't want to say more about this matter, Bai Zijian knew about it.He has this temperament, and it was the same when he was practicing in the past. Others with mediocre talents progressed step by step, but he was extremely talented but pushed himself to the limit.Bai Zijian told him countless times that he didn't need to be harsh on himself, but he couldn't listen.

Bai Zijian knew that he had a wound in his heart, that impure spiritual power was the reason why he was abandoned back then, and this wound has not faded even now.The higher he stood, the harder he was on himself.In the past, Bai Xiuning could at least talk to Bai Zijian about what was in his heart, but since he became the assistant king, Bai Xiuning has been busier than his suzerain, taking care of everything, even Bai Zijian has to rely on the spirit bird to see him arraignment.

Bai Zijian didn't answer his question, but instead said: "Tomorrow is your parents' memorial day, Xiu Ting asked me, do you go to worship with him?"

Bai Xiuning's eyes dimmed instantly, he drooped his eyelashes, and said coldly: "It's enough to pay homage to this little brother, my disciple has more important things to do. I wonder if the master has confirmed the secret words in the letter? "

He turned the subject back coldly, but Bai Zijian was not angry, but sighed helplessly: "Xiu Ning, they are your parents after all. Even if they really did something wrong back then, things have passed for so many years. You If they hate like this, they will not rest in peace if they know it."

Bai Xiuning clenched his fists, and said with a sneer, "Now that this disciple is standing in a higher position than elder brother, if they really have knowledge under the spring, they should be satisfied, so why would they care what the disciple thinks?"

Bai Zijian frowned: "There is a saying in the Buddha's gatha, let go of one thought, and feel at ease. Since you like reading scriptures, why don't you even understand such a simple truth?"

Bai Xiuning's patience was finally exhausted: "Master, please forgive me for being stupid, there are some truths that I don't want to understand for the rest of my life."

Facing his tough attitude, the regret in Bai Zijian's eyes became heavier.He shook his head: "Xiu Ning, although you are proud of being a teacher, sometimes the teacher is really disappointed in you."

Bai Xiuning immediately shook his body as if he had been hit hard, he looked at Bai Zijian blankly, the blood on his face faded little by little.

disappointment?Is Master saying that he is disappointed in him?Just because he refused to forgive his parents?

He clenched his fists tightly, trying to suppress the hesitation in his heart.But he has been refusing to forgive those two people for many years. Master has understood from the beginning, and has never persecuted him.So what's wrong?It took him two days to bury the emotions that Hao Yuan brought, now it's Master's turn to force him?

Bai Zijian saw that he was not in the right mood, and was afraid that he would get distracted, so he hurriedly said, "Xiu Ning, there is no other meaning in being a teacher, I just hope that you can let yourself go. You have suffered too much since you were young, but you don't want anyone to come To untangle your heart, even Xiu Ting is polite when getting along with you. If things go on like this, if one day the teacher is gone, who else can tell you these things?"

He spoke from the bottom of his heart, but at this moment, Bai Xiuning's ears changed his taste.

With a pale face, Bai Xiuning bowed to Bai Zijian: "Thank you, Master, for your consideration for the disciple. It was the disciple who contradicted me just now. Please forgive me, Master."

Bai Zijian took a deep look at him, but finally didn't say any more.Instead, he said: "I don't have a clue about the secret language in the letter, but I have already asked Ji Kong for help. He is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he should have good news soon. Don't worry about this matter. I see that you are restless. It's better to go back to the house and rest, don't burn yourself out."

Bai Xiuning left, he went back to his room and took the piano, and came to a cliff on the top of the mountain.

This is the backside of Qilian Mountains, where wild Qiluo flowers are planted on the cliff like a knife, the lavender petals flutter in the wind, and the rich fragrance is refreshing.

He sat cross-legged on a big rock, put the piano between his knees, plucked the strings, and a song of high mountains and flowing water flowed down from his fingertips.

The leisurely sound of the piano was blown away a little by the wind in the middle of the mountain, but it didn't affect his mood at all.He looked at the endless mountains in the distance. Although it was a cold early spring, the mountains were covered with greenery, and there were signs of vitality everywhere.

Such greenness reminded him of the hill he had seen when he was a child.

The scenery of that mountain is far less majestic than that of Qilian Mountain, and it looks a bit shabby, but he just likes it inexplicably.

He likes the only peach blossom tree on that mountain, and likes to sit under the tree and stare at the direction of Qilian Mountain in a daze, and there is also the young man sitting beside him who keeps talking to him noisyly.Although he was often quarreled so much that he just wanted to shut the boy's mouth, but he also knew that the reason why the boy was doing this was because he was worried that he would be unhappy.

Bai Xiuning's brows finally had a hint of joy.Although Haoyuan always did things he didn't like after the reunion, it also reminded him of those happy things when he was a child.He suddenly realized that he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

The clear sun shines in the sky, making Shengxue's face a little unreal, only the cinnabar between the brows is still bright, like a drop of heart blood in the world of mortals, condensed in the depths of another person's pupils.

Haoyuan did not expect to see Bai Xiuning like this when sneaking into Qilian Mountain.

The person who sat quietly on the edge of the cliff was obviously the Assistant Lord of the Bai family who could withstand a thousand junctures, but at this moment he was so thin that it seemed that even a strong wind could blow him off.

He stared straight ahead, but saw nothing in his eyes.The slender fingertips played the most moving movement of Boya and Ziqi, which was obviously not a sad tune, but the whole body was solidified with loneliness.

Haoyuan didn't know what he was thinking, but such Bai Xiuning made his heart ache for no reason.

High Mountains and Flowing Water, this is Haoyuan's least favorite piece of music.

Although it made Boya meet Ziqi, Ziqi left Boya behind.Haoyuan is never afraid of life and death, because there will always be a day of reunion, but he is afraid of death and parting.

So every time Shen Liuyun played this piece of music, he was very repulsive, especially in the days when Shen Liuyun was about to die, every time he heard the sound of the piano, he could not control his hostility and wanted to destroy everything.

After Shen Liuyun's death, he thought that he would never have to listen to this piece of music again, but unexpectedly, Bai Xiuning played it to him.

The feeling of being helpless in the face of death lingered in Haoyuan's heart, which made the hostility in his heart deepen again, and a ghostly aura began to surge in the dark red pupils.In the distance, Bai Xiuning paused with his fingertips, and at the same time as his sharp eyes swept over, the sound of strings turned into a wave of spiritual flow, vibrating towards Hao Yuan.

Hao Yuan only felt a phantom-like tide rushing by in front of his eyes, and immediately flew to dodge it.Bai Xiuning stopped his attack when he saw the peach petals on his fancy clothes, Haoyuan stood behind him after a few ups and downs, looking down at him with folded arms.

Bai Xiuning didn't turn his head, still staring into the distance, playing the string music.

Hao Yuan stood for a while, then squatted down, and pressed his hand that plucked the string.

Bai Xiuning turned to look at him, there was no trace of emotion between his handsome brows, as if Haoyuan was not a ghost cultivator trespassing on Qilian Mountain, but one of thousands of beautiful flowers.

"I don't like this song." Hao Yuan said directly.

Bai Xiuning nodded slightly, and after Hao Yuan moved his hand away, he changed the tune.

After listening to it for a while, Hao Yuan found that this song was good. Although he had never heard it before, it was melodious and very soothing.

He asked, "What's the name of this song?"

Bai Xiuning: "Go back."

Hao Yuan was amazed: "This name is fine, you made it?"

Bai Xiuning didn't answer, but he didn't shake his head either.

Hao Yuan applauded: "My Xiu Ning is not only very good-looking, but also capable of all eighteen martial arts."

He really praised it, but this teasing tone with his mouth completely wiped out Bai Xiuning's rare good mood.

Bai Xiuning said expressionlessly, "Why did you trespass on Qilian Mountain?"

Haoyuan: "Come to find you."

Bai Xiuning: "Do you know what happens to ghost cultivators who trespass on Qilian Mountain?"

Hao Yuan smiled and said: "I know, I will be escorted by you to the Sacrifice Tower for the blood sacrifice."

Bai Xiuning: "You know you're still here?"

Hao Yuan sat beside him, propped his forehead with one hand, and said, "You are not willing to let me die."

Bai Xiuning laughed angrily at his look of being the only one in the world, but he was not really angry: "You only knew me when you were a child, don't be too arrogant."

Hao Yuan sized him up for a moment: "Xiu Ning, you said that you always suppress yourself like this, and your life is worse than bitter melon, what's the point?"

Bai Xiuning ignored him, and stood up with Qin in his arms: "Let's go, even if your cultivation level is not low, don't underestimate the defense of Qilian Mountain."

Hao Yuan grabbed his sleeve and looked up at him: "Sit with me for a while, I have something to talk to you about."

Seeing that he was rarely serious, Bai Xiuning sat down again, waiting for him to speak.

Hao Yuan: "You ran too fast last time, I didn't have time to tell you. The person I met that night was Wang Chuanyue's close friend."

Bai Xiuning frowned: "The members of the Wang family don't know that Wang Chuanyue is dead?"

Hao Yuan: "Yes, let's talk about that first. There is a pill furnace in Wang's mansion. It's not surprising at all, but the strange thing is that what they make is not an ordinary pill, but something I have never heard of. The species is called Curse Pill."

As soon as Hao Yuan finished speaking, Bai Xiuning's breath changed.Hao Yuan looked at his sudden cold expression, and asked suspiciously: "Have you heard of this thing?"

Bai Xiuning looked at him hesitantly.

Seeing him like this, Hao Yuan knew that there must be something wrong, and hurriedly said: "Xiu Ning, just say what you have, don't always carry it by yourself, brother Bao will take care of you."

It was rare for Bai Xiuning not to be emotionally disturbed by Hao Yuan's nonsense, he said, "Apart from the curse pill, is there any other news?"

Hao Yuan: "It's gone. That person doesn't know what the curse pill is. He only said that the refining is very mysterious, and it was made by their suzerain himself, and no one else is allowed to intervene."

Bai Xiuning hesitated for a moment: "I understand, but this matter is of great importance, you should not get involved. Now someone is pretending to be you and hurting someone, so be careful."

After he finished the first half of the sentence, Hao Yuan immediately became unhappy, but when he finished the second half of the sentence, Hao Yuan smiled happily again, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he hooked him over and hugged him in his arms.

Bai Xiuning instinctively wanted to push him, but he heard Hao Yuan say: "Let me hug you for a while, I won't mess around again."

Bai Xiuning's rejecting hands froze, and for a moment he didn't know whether to refuse to the end.

Haoyuan really didn't mess around anymore, he just hugged him for a while and then let go.

Bai Xiuning immediately stood up. Although they had done more intimate things, the two were just old friends after all, and this place is Qilian Mountain.Even if no disciples dare to step in here, it is still not safe.

He urged Haoyuan to leave quickly, but Haoyuan stayed still, and said to the green mountains in the distance: "Qilian Mountain is indeed a fairy mountain in the world. When I came here, I saw the mountain gate facing Qionghai. If you want to climb up, you can see it." Why don't you take me to see the broader beauty?"

When Bai Xiuning heard that he mentioned Curse Pill, he became restless. How could he have time to take a leisurely stroll with him?So he said coldly: "If you are discovered, even I can't protect you. Qilian Mountain is not as simple as you think, so hurry up."

Haoyuan snorted: "If I don't leave, I won't be able to see you when I leave. How about hiding me in your room? Anyway, as long as I restrain my breath, I won't even be able to find you, let alone other people .”

"Ridiculous! You are a ghost cultivator, how can you stay here!" Bai Xiuning said angrily.

"Xiu Ning, because Brother Bao is a ghost repairer, so we can't even be friends?" Hao Yuan let go of the scoundrel just now, and suddenly looked at him seriously.

Bai Xiuning choked on these words, and suddenly some strange emotions surged out again.He closed his eyes and said with a wry smile, "Why do you always ask questions knowingly?"

Haoyuan: "Then what if I abolish this body? Can you let me stay by your side?"
