Qi Luo Man Ting Fang in the old days

The torrential rain outside still didn't stop, Hao Yuan set up a barrier to shelter himself from the rain, but without hesitation threw Wang Chuanyue into the ditch full of sludge.

Wang Chuanyue took a few mouthfuls of muddy water, and suddenly coughed violently.Seeing that he finally regained consciousness, Hao Yuan kicked him on the head, his face was buried even deeper, and he struggled desperately.

Looking at his disorderly movements, Hao Yuan was ridiculed in his heart.These well-known families are upright, and they have an upright skin. Under the surface, how is it different from those rats in the gutter?

Hao Yuan waited for him to drink enough before letting go, Wang Chuanyue quickly raised his head and took a deep breath.He hadn't figured out what was going on in front of him, he just felt that the sky and the earth were all in darkness, the heavy rain was hitting his face like ice beans, and his nose was so painful that he couldn't even care about his broken left arm.

It took him a while to remember, and he turned around abruptly, and sure enough, he saw a tall man with his arms folded, staring at him sullenly.This man has a handsome face, but there are two streaks of red at the end of his eyes, adding a touch of evil to his facial features.

Wang Chuanyue recognized the two red marks as soon as he saw them, and he kept crawling back in horror, murmuring words like "please, don't kill me" in his mouth.

The reason why Hao Yuan can be recognized even without being ostentatious is precisely because of the two red marks at the end of his eyes.

It was left to him by his master Shen Liuyun, and it was a sin that he could never erase in his life.

It's a pity that no one knows the truth, but this red mark has become his mark, even Bai Xiuning recognized him by this red mark.

Hao Yuan suddenly laughed at himself, he really didn't know whether this imprint brought him luck or misfortune.

Wang Chuanyue saw Haoyuan standing still, so he struggled to stand up and wanted to run after crawling a few times, but soon felt that his feet were heavy as if tied with a heavy weight.

He looked down, and at some point, a dark red ghostly aura wrapped around his legs.The ghostly aura was still spreading upwards, reaching to the waist.

Wang Chuanyue was seriously injured by the ghost just now, and now he saw it again and screamed.But before he could call out, he felt a phantom in front of him, and Hao Yuan, who was supposed to be far behind, stood in front of him, pointed a finger at his throat, and said with a grinning smile, "Be quiet, if you quarrel with Xiu Ning Wake up, and I will let you know what life is better than death."

Haoyuan loves to laugh, and looks amiable when he is not angry.But once he gets angry, the ghostly aura in his pupils and the red marks at the end of his eyes will make his expression extraordinarily sinister and creepy.

Wang Chuanyue calculated that Bai Xiuning failed, and fell into Haoyuan's hands, so he naturally knew that there would be no good fruit.But after all, he has been the suzerain for a long time, no matter how afraid he is, he will not lose his mind.So I quickly forced myself to calm down.

Seeing that he was quiet, Haoyuan moved his finger away, and said coldly: "You can answer whatever I ask, if I find out that there is a lie, don't mention you, even your Xinghe Wang family will be wiped out. .”

Even if he had never done evil, he still had a bad reputation.Putting on the appearance of a monster right now really bluffed Wang Chuanyue.

Wang Chuanyue cried and said, "Don't kill me! I don't want to, I was also instructed by others!"

Haoyuan: "Who instructed you?"

Wang Chuanyue shook his head: "I don't know! That person always contacts me by letter! I can't bear the consequences of what Mr. Xiu Ning is investigating. I was anxiously trying to find a way, and that person's letter came. !"

Hao Yuan: "What are the characteristics of that person? You did the living corpse thing alone?"

Although Hao Yuan didn't know much about it, he began to follow Wang Chuanyue's words.When Wang Chuanyue saw that he mentioned the word "living corpse", he immediately froze like a leaf beaten by frost.

Haoyuan saw that he was silent, so he poked his finger between his eyebrows again.

It was still the same sinister smile and cold tone that made Wang Chuanyue tremble uncontrollably.

Haoyuan said, "I don't have much patience."

Wang Chuanyue felt the cold finger between his brows, he knew that as long as Haoyuan released a little ghostly energy, the consequences would be unbearable for him.

Rather than dying at the hands of Hao Yuan, he would rather confess everything to Bai Xiuning.At least Bai Xiuning is the assistant king of the Bai clan, and that incident was not his fault alone, even if he died, Bai Xiuning would not hurt his wife and children!

Thinking of this, Wang Chuanyue finally made up his mind.But as soon as he moved his lips, he suddenly grabbed his neck and looked at Hao Yuan in horror.

Hao Yuan was also baffled by this incident.

He didn't make a move at all, Wang Chuanyue seemed to be controlled by him, and he pinched him tighter and tighter.Veins appeared on the neck, and the eyeballs were bloodshot, as if he was about to die.

Hao Yuan hurriedly pulled him, but Wang Chuanyue's hand was like an iron hoop and he couldn't move at all.In desperation, he had no choice but to slap him on the back of the neck, knocking him out, but the right hand was still tightly wrapped around his neck.

Wang Chuanyue was dizzy, and his breath became weaker and weaker.Haoyuan guessed that he should be really controlled by someone, but who can control someone under his nose without being discovered?

Hao Yuan can be sure that there is no one else in this mountain range, only Bai Xiuning is sleeping soundly in the ruined temple.

In this way, the only explanation is that someone hypnotized Wang Chuanyue, and when he wanted to tell the truth, he would hang himself to death.

Hao Yuan had no choice but to break Wang Chuanyue's right hand, but it was still a step too late.

Wang Chuanyue broke his throat with all his strength at the moment when he was distracted, and now he is out of breath.

Hao Yuan squatted in front of Wang Chuanyue with a dignified expression. This method of controlling people is also very rare in ghost or demon cultivation, after all, this method requires a strong cultivation.

Wang Chuanyue died just like that, and Haoyuan didn't have time to ask anything.But after thinking about it for a moment, he thought of the letter Wang Chuanyue mentioned.If that person really used a letter to contact Wang Chuanyue, is it possible for Wang Chuanyue to keep the letter as a reliance for protection in the future?

Thinking of this, Hao Yuan regained his energy, it seemed that he was going to explore Xing and Wang before Wang Chuanyue's death was discovered.

He carried Wang Chuanyue back again, but Bai Xiuning hadn't woken up yet.Seeing that he was sleeping so deeply, Haoyuan didn't want to wake him up.But since he knew that someone wanted to plot against him, he couldn't leave him here alone, so he had to find a place to hide Wang Chuanyue first.

No matter how tired Bai Xiuning is, he would wake up with a jolt if there was any movement.But the fragrance of Qiluozhu really had a strong sleeping effect on him, so that Haoyuan didn't wake up when he hugged him and found an inn.

Haoyuan set up a special barrier in the room, and left him a note next to his pillow, and then went to visit Wang's mansion at night.

The matter of Wang Chuanyue taking people to chase after Bai Xiuning cannot be made clear, so the people in the mansion should sleep as they should, and those who should be on duty should be on duty, there is nothing unusual.

Hao Yuan passed through Wang's spiritual barrier without anyone noticing, and sneaked into Wang Chuanyue's study to search.

His hands and feet were quick and he didn't make a sound, and because he practiced the way of ghosts, his eyes could see clearly in the dark, so he quickly turned the study upside down.

But got nothing.

Hao Yuan pondered for a while, and then began to look for secret cells or secret passages.

As a result, he soon found the trick under a pot of iron tree in the corner.

A box was lying in a dark compartment, with a spiritual barrier that had lost its aura on it.

Only when the person who created the spiritual barrier dies, the spiritual barrier will lose its aura.

Haoyuan knew at a glance that it belonged to Wang Chuanyue, and when he opened it, he saw four letters inside.

He immediately opened it to look.

The letter was not signed, and even the handwriting was illegible.He knew that Zhengdao Bai used spiritual birds to send messages. The biggest advantage of using spiritual birds is that both the writer and the receiver must use their own spiritual power to open the letter, which can prevent the letter from being read by others. People peeked into.

But Wang Chuanyue's letter not only has no spiritual power seal, but is as ordinary as the one written by the gentleman who helped people write family letters on the street.

Hao Yuan read all the letters. Those letters seemed to be written in coded language. At first glance, they looked disorganized and unintelligible at all.

He had no choice but to put the letter away first, and then went through it again to make sure there were no other hidden compartments before slipping back to the inn.

Hao Yuan originally thought that Bai Xiuning was still sleeping, but when he pushed open the door, he saw him sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the Qiluo Pearl with his slender fingertips, with a very dignified look on his face.

Hao Yuan didn't intend to hide anything, so he walked up to him calmly.

Bai Xiuning raised his eyes to look at him, without asking himself why he slept in the inn, he said directly: "Why do you have this thing?"

Haoyuan smiled: "Because you gave it to me."

Bai Xiuning looked at Hao Yuan, as if Hao Yuan's words were very difficult to understand.

Haoyuan knew that he would not be able to accept it all at once, so he sat next to him and said, "Xiu Ning, you left without saying goodbye back then, brother Bao was very sad for a long time."

Bai Xiuning's whole body froze, and the Qi Luozhu on his fingertips fell on his lap because he couldn't hold it firmly.Hao Yuan quickly caught it, and said cautiously: "Don't break it, this is my baby."

He put the Qi Luozhu into Bai Xiuning's palm again, and said with a smile: "You are still the same as before, you can sleep peacefully with it. You are more useful than me with this bead, so take it back and give me something else. "

Bai Xiuning couldn't say a word at all.

He looked at the Qi Luozhu in his palm, his vision gradually blurred.

The past that had been buried deep in his heart, which had been dusty for too long, was like a reborn seed breaking through the ground, and finally saw a little light.

Bai Xiuning didn't know how to describe this feeling.

If it was just the Qiluozhu, he could still regard it as a coincidence, after all there is not only one Qiluozhu in this world.But the words "Brother Bao" made him unable to stop thinking about the young man who had accompanied him and given him real warmth back then.

Bai Xiuning closed his palms, and looked at Haoyuan after a while: "When did you recognize me?"

He has sorted out the emotions that just got out of control, and now when he looked at Hao Yuan again, his eyes were calm and calm, as if what Hao Yuan said was something very ordinary.

Haoyuan knew that he was good at forbearance since he was a child, so he simply said: "Actually, I followed you because I recognized the Bai family dress you were wearing. Later, I saw the birthmark on your wrist and heard your name."

Bai Xiuning seemed displeased: "Then why didn't you say it then?"

Hao Yuan: "Everyone in your family has a bad impression of me, and at that time you looked very tired, and I didn't want to disturb your mind."

Bai Xiuning was startled, and the wrinkles between his brows faded a lot: "So you used it to make me fall asleep?"

Hao Yuan smiled calmly: "Yes, I just wanted to try it, but it didn't work. I didn't expect it to be so far away. Xiu Ning, how long have you not had a good rest?"

Seeing Haoyuan talking to him without any barriers, his tone was the same as when he was a child, Bai Xiuning's expression became complicated again.

He has not yet digested this relationship, and there are still a lot of troubles waiting for him to solve.The secrets about him alone are astonishing enough, but Haoyuan knows it.Although they got along for a while when they were children, more than ten years have passed, and Bai Xiuning is no longer the child he was back then, let alone Hao Yuan who has become a ghost cultivator.

Their identities are contradictory, and they should be two parallel lines that do not intersect at all.

Bai Xiuning only felt pain in his temple, why did things suddenly become so complicated?

Seeing that he bowed his head and said nothing, Haoyuan guessed his scruples, so he said: "The ghostly aura about you should be a secret, don't worry, I won't tell anyone. Just now when you were sleeping, I I went to the Wang family and found the letter that Wang Chuanyue secretly communicated with others, take a look."

After he finished speaking, he took out the four letters from his pocket and handed them over. Bai Xiuning's expression flickered, and he immediately took them and opened them. They were written in code words, which he couldn't see for a while.

He could only ask: "Where is Wang Chuanyue?"

Hao Yuan then told what happened after Bai Xiuning fell asleep, the more Bai Xiuning heard it, the more ugly his face became, and finally he pinched his brows and said: "Don't meddle in this matter anymore, leave quickly."

Hao Yuan didn't expect him to say such a sentence after listening to it, and he was a little annoyed: "You drive me away?"

In fact, Haoyuan didn't expect Bai Xiuning to recognize him happily, after all, they were too young at that time, and now they stand on opposite sides of each other, with Bai Xiuning's identity, he would definitely not want to have a friend like him.It's just that he didn't expect Bai Xiuning to be so indifferent and make a move to drive him away.

Bai Xiuning's fingertips curled up, feeling an inexplicable sadness in his heart, but Haoyuan didn't see anything wrong.He said: "You are the ghost king Haoyuan, if you continue to stay here, Wang Chuanyue's death will only be blamed on you."

The indifference he said, in Haoyuan's eyes, was more ruthless, Haoyuan was even more angry, and said angrily: "You think I would care about this? You guys like to slander me, you have never done it but you are counted Is there less work on my head?"

After being scolded by him like this, Bai Xiuning's tone became unhappy: "You don't need to say any more."

Seeing his impatience, Haoyuan finally laughed angrily, stood up and said, "Okay, I'm being self-indulgent. Now you are the high-ranking Assistant Lord of the Bai family, and I'm just a ghost cultivator who everyone shouts and beats. I shouldn't have come to provoke you again. I'm the one who's making a move, so I'll leave!"

After he finished speaking, he opened the window and jumped out.

The window frame slammed shut with a loud "snap", and the room suddenly fell silent.Bai Xiuning stared at the Qi Luozhu in his hand in a daze, and then wrapped his cloak tightly around his body. It took him a long time to let out a foul breath, and closed his eyes in pain.

He carefully put Qi Luozhu into his sleeve, opened the four letters and read them again.

This kind of code word generally has logic to be found, but it cannot be unraveled in a while.Hao Yuan left suddenly, without telling him where he hid Wang Chuanyue's body.He felt his own pulse and found that his spiritual power had recovered a lot after sleeping.So without further delay, I planned to go to Wang's side to find out the wind first.

It's just that before he got close to Wang's mansion, he received a spirit bird from Qilian Mountain.

It was passed on to him by his master Bai Zijian.

Bai Xiuning opened it and saw that there was only the word "return soon" written on the letter.

He had met Bai Zijian before he went down the mountain this time, and Bai Zijian knew what he was looking for, and if there was no urgent matter, he would never call him back casually.

Bai Xiuning didn't delay any longer, and Yu Jian returned to Qilian Mountain.

He was wearing Haoyuan's cloak, in order not to be seen, he had to hide his breath and quietly returned to his room.Fortunately, the place where he lived was quiet, and no one dared to disturb him on weekdays, so no one noticed.

But when he opened the door, he was still surprised by someone.

His little apprentice Bai Yan was bending over and groping for something on his bed.

Bai Yu is only 13 years old, and he is still a playful boy by nature.He secretly came to Bai Xiuning's room to put presents, but he didn't expect Bai Xiuning to come back suddenly, so scared that he sat down on the bed and hurriedly hid the things in his hand behind his back.

Bai Xiuning looked at him, and the two of them didn't speak until Bai Yu couldn't bear the pressure anymore, and called out: "Master."

Bai Xiuning: "What are you doing?"

Knowing that he couldn't go on, he had to turn out the things behind him, and said helplessly, "I prepared a birthday gift for Master. I thought there would be a surprise when Master came back, but I didn't expect Master to come back early."

Bai Xiuning looked at the delicate velvet bag in his hand, and said helplessly: "If you put all these thoughts into cultivation, your cultivation will definitely go to a higher level."

Bai Yu knew at a glance that he was not angry, so he quickly ran to him and said, "This disciple will naturally work hard to practice so as not to embarrass the master, but the birthday of the master is very important, and the master never allows it to be made public. Disciples must prepare congratulatory gifts for Master, otherwise Master will be alone every year, how lonely it must be."

Bai Xiuning saw the genuine concern in his flattering eyes, and he couldn't utter the words of reproach, so he said: "Then you put it away and give it to your teacher when the day comes. Now you have something to do as a teacher, you first go out."

Bai Yan immediately beamed with joy, and was about to respond when he suddenly noticed the cloak on Bai Xiuning's body.He asked curiously, "Master never wears anything other than white, how could he wear such a black cloak?"

Bai Xiuning was afraid that he would lift off the cloak with too many hands, and when he saw the inside, he quickly grabbed the cloak and said, "It's not convenient to reveal your identity this time, you should go out."

After he finished speaking, he pushed Bai Yu out of the door. Bai Yu seemed to want to say something more, but when he turned his head, he saw Bai Xiuning locked the door with a "slap".

Bai Yan scratched his head and muttered, "Why is Master so panicked?"

Fortunately, Bai Yu left without thinking too much, Bai Xiuning heaved a sigh of relief, then took off his cloak, looked at the clothes on his body that had been torn by Hao Yuan, and the emotions that could not be suppressed came out again.

Unconsciously, the last words of Hao Yuan came to mind.

He knew that Haoyuan must be very angry, but he had no other choice.

He and Hao Yuan should never have known each other.

Bai Xiuning changed his clothes and went to see Bai Zijian, but heard even more shocking news from Bai Zijian.

Bai Zijian said that the Rizhao Yun family came to report that their suzerain Yun Qi was attacked while capturing the living corpse, and the person who injured him was the ghost king Haoyuan.

Bai Xiuning's first reaction was that it was impossible, but he didn't say anything, and didn't show it, but calmly listened to Bai Zijian finish the whole thing.

Yun Qi was attacked a day ago. He was on the border of Yun's family to clean up a group of uncontrolled living corpses.The reason why he recognized that it was Hao Yuan was because of the two iconic red marks at the end of the eyes of the person who attacked him.

After hearing this, Bai Xiuning secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

That time was when he met Hao Yuan in Shengping Town at noon yesterday, how could Hao Yuan go to the Yun family thousands of miles away to hurt people?

He told Bai Zijian about this, and by the way, he also told about Wang Chuanyue drugging him and Hao Yuan saving him.But he concealed the actions that Haoyuan did to him, including the things he and Haoyuan had known since childhood.

Bai Zi frowned after monitoring.

Bai Xiuning is his beloved apprentice, who was also brought up by him, so naturally he can't see anyone plotting against him.Hearing that it was Hao Yuan who saved Bai Xiuning, Bai Zijian asked Hao Yuan where he was now?

Bai Xiuning had no choice but to say that because he was worried that Hao Yuan would be framed for this matter, he had already been sent away.

Bai Zijian twirled his long gray beard and said, "This matter is strange. Yun Qi has an upright personality, so he shouldn't do anything to frame others. Presumably what he saw was true. If it's as you said, I believe someone wanted to frame him. It's on Hao Yuan."

Bai Xiuning: "Master, read these letters again."

Bai Xiuning handed the four letters to Bai Zijian, and Bai Zijian looked at them and said, "Leave the letters to Master to check, and you can bring a sentence to Haoyuan for Master."

Bai Xiuning was stunned, asked him to go to Haoyuan again?

He said: "Master, I don't know where Haoyuan is."

Bai Zijian: "The news about Yun Qi's attack has already spread. If Hao Yuan is really as you said, he will probably go to Yun's to find out what happened. You can go to Rizhao Mountain to see, and don't let him do it again for no reason. road."

Bai Xiuning gave Bai Zijian a weird look, as if he wanted to say something.Bai Zijian smiled and said, "Do you want to ask why a teacher should consider for Haoyuan?"

Bai Xiuning nodded.

Bai Zijian twirled his gray beard again, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Because he is a disciple taught by Shen Liuyun, so as a teacher, I never think that he will do evil."
