Small bones

Xu Nuo was stunned for a while, with a look of disappointment and relief: "He...has an apprentice."

Bai Xiaogu: "That's right, Gu also has a senior brother, oh, it's the body of the fire fox that the master used before... The senior brother was injured, the master said that it will take a while for him to recover, and the master also..."

Saying that, Bai Xiaogu couldn't help feeling sad.

Xu Nuo's heart twitched: "He... what happened to you?"

Just as Bai Xiaogu was about to speak, he suddenly heard Qin Jiuji say in his heart: "Did your master's soul come to look for her?"

Bai Xiaogu: "!"

Bai Xiaogu didn't bother to talk about that, and asked Xu Nuo immediately: "Have you seen my master's soul?"

Hearing this, Xu Nuo turned pale: "His soul..."

Only when a person is about to die will his soul leave his body.

Bai Xiaogu's words were tantamount to confirming Qin Yong's death.

Xu Nuo only felt buzzing in his ears, cold bitterness welling up from his chest, clogging his throat, numb his tongue, and burning his eye sockets.

Is he... dead...

Seeing Xu Nuo's expression was wrong, Bai Xiaogu quickly called her: "Sister Xu Nuo, sister Xu Nuo..."

Xu Nuo snapped back to his senses, and looked at Bai Xiaogu: "Little Elk..."

Bai Xiaogu repeated what he had said: "Master rescued Master, but Master has a ray of soul that came to Tianyu Mountain to meet the most important person. We have to bring him back so that Master can wake up. Promise sister, Master Did I come to see you?"

He was very sure that Master must have come to see her.

She must be the female monk who saved Master and gave Master the courage to live!

Sister Xu Nuo is the most important person for Master.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiaogu felt happy for Master, because he could feel that Xu Nuo's sister missed him very much!

When Xu Nuo heard his words, her tangled heart didn't relax in the slightest, but became even tighter. Her voice was hoarse: "His soul... came...to see me."

Bai Xiaogu: "Master said he is in Tianyu Mountain!"

Bai Xiaogu said again: "Master must have come to see you, he knows you are in Tianyu Mountain, right?"

Xu Nuo: "But I didn't see him..."

Qin Jiuji, who had been silent all this time, said, "Do you have any tokens between you?"

This last side before death usually requires tokens to draw the soul.

Xu promised that there was indeed a jade card engraved with their names given to her by Qin Yong, and her complexion became even paler: "He, he is in the underground palace..."

Qin Jiuji frowned: "The underground palace?"

Xu Nuo could hardly hear others saying: "...I will kill him!"

Bai Xiaogu became anxious: "Sister Xu Nuo, where is the underground palace? Is it in Tianyu Mountain? Is there any danger there, Master..."

Xu Nuo didn't intend to say this at first, but she can die by herself, she doesn't want the little elk to follow her...

Xu Nuo's fair fingers mingled together, her eyelids drooped slightly, and her voice trembled uncontrollably, but even though she was so nervous and desperate, she still thanked Qin Jiuji first, because he saved Qin Yong.

Then, Xu Nuo told Daoist sect's biggest secret.

Xu Nuo was adopted by her master when she was very young. Her life was given by her master, and every day she lived was earned, so she never complained about the responsibilities she shouldered, and she has always been happy.

After the master passed away, Xu Nuo was also trying to find the next successor.

Although she has good talent and high realm, she can live for hundreds of years in the current situation.But finding an inheritance is not a simple matter. To find a suitable candidate, and then train him to be able to take on the important role, it requires the matching of various conditions and enough time.

Xu Nuo was afraid that something unexpected would happen to her, which would delay the inheritance, so she has been looking for successors all these years.

It was during this process that she met Qin Yong.

At that time, Qin Yong suffered a great change, and promised to save him.

She thought he was just a little elk, but unexpectedly, he was about to transform.

Xu Nuo thought about making Qin Yong the successor of the next generation, but in less than a month, Qin Yong turned into a young man.

Promise: "..."

One of the rules of Wendaozong: the successor must be an orphan or child who has no worries.

Although Qin Yong has no worries, he is already a half-grown boy and not suitable as a successor.

Qin Yong wanted to worship him as his teacher, but Xu Nuo refused.

Qin Yong wanted to stay in Tianyu Mountain to serve her, but he promised not to allow it.

after that……

Xu Nuo knew that Qin Yong should be driven away, but couldn't help but soften his heart again and again.

She couldn't bear to drive him away, so she could only try to alienate him coldly.

The little elk has just grown up and must be full of curiosity about the world.

Xu promised that on the one hand, he wanted to find the heir, and on the other hand, he also wanted the little elk to see the outside world, so he took him down the mountain and almost traveled all over the Twelve Immortal Mountains.

A lot of things happened during this process, and I met many people. There were many promises that the little elk would stay, but when she packed her bags and went to the next place, the little elk followed.

Xu Nuo kept telling him: "You are free, you can live any life you want."

Qin Yong smiled and said, "Staying by your side is the freest decision I have made."

Promise: "..."

Qin Yong never made things difficult for her, it didn't matter if she didn't want to accept him as a disciple or servant.Qin Yong didn't ask why, and didn't continue to mention these things, but just followed her and took care of him in his own way.

Although Xu Nuo is old, she has spent most of her life receiving the inheritance education in Tianyu Mountain. The only belief in this life is to wait for the return of the demon god, and the final outcome is to sacrifice herself to Tianyu Mountain.

With such a belief, it is impossible for her to accept anyone, even if she knows Qin Yong's intentions, it is impossible for her.

Her life was given by her master, and the sole purpose of her existence is to fulfill the beliefs passed down by the Daoist sect for 23 generations.

She is doomed to die, so why drag Qin Yong down.

After a spirit takes shape, its lifespan is long, and she doesn't want to delay him.

In a trance, ten years have passed.

Xu Nuo is getting used to Qin Yong more and more, and Qin Yong has completely grown into a young man. The elk is handsome and handsome, almost a head taller than her.

Xu Nuo insisted on going down the mountain to find the heirs, until one day, an old woman in a teahouse woke up the dreamer: "Aren't you couples planning to have children? There is a purple anti-fetal pill here for your mother to keep your child and give birth to it." The back spirit root is strong, and the qualifications are extremely high..."

She didn't finish her sentence, Qin Yong was afraid of promising to be annoyed, so she said with red ears: "Grandma, we, we don't need it."

The old woman glanced at him: "Don't be reluctant to part with the spirit stone. It's not easy for a cultivator to have children. If you give birth to a mortal fetus without spiritual roots, the lifespan is only a few dozen years. Wouldn't it be troublesome for you!"

Xu Nuo suddenly got up: "Let's go."

Qin Yong hurriedly followed. Seeing that the business could not be done, the old woman said in a disappointing way: "The young monks are more selfish than each other!"

Qin Yong was afraid that Xu Nuo would be offended by these gossip, so he said, "Don't listen to her..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Nuo suddenly stopped and turned to look at him: "Go to Zhaoyao Mountain."

Qin Yong was stunned.

Promised: "There are so many monsters on Zhaoyao Mountain. Didn't you make friends there before? It's good to settle down there. You don't have to go back to Tianyu Mountain with me."

Qin Yong's eyes were red: "You..."

With a cold face, Xu Nuo said in a strong voice: "I don't need an apprentice, and I don't need someone to take care of me. Now that you are an adult, living with me will only increase criticism and is inappropriate."

Qin Yong's heart was twisted like a knife: "I didn't think too much, and I never thought of offending you, I just..."

Xu Nuo said bluntly: "I won't have a Taoist partner in this life, I can't give you what you expect."

Qin Yong's face was like frost and snow, his thin lips trembled slightly, and he could not make any sound at all.

Xu Nuo had never rejected him so categorically, but at this moment she knew that she could no longer soften her heart.

Since you can't make promises to him, and you can't be with him, why drag him down for your own selfish desires.

"You go, I don't want to see you again." When Xu Nuo said this, he had no regrets in his heart.

There is no doubt that she likes Qin Yong, likes being with him, and likes the ease and ease of this neglected ten years.

But her life is not her own. From the day she was rescued by Master, she only belongs to Tianyu Mountain.

Her final return journey is either to cultivate the next generation of descendants and bury herself at the foot of Tianyu Mountain; or to wait until the return of the Demon God, and she will use her body as a sacrifice to open the Tianyu Mountain Great Formation and fight with all the high-ranking monks who threaten the safety of the Demon God. ,perish together.

7000 years ago, Jiang Ge calculated everything.

This confused-looking man, only devoted himself to protecting the child.

The formation of the Seven Absolute Pagodas.

The formation of Tianyu Mountain.

One is bright, one is dark.

The formation of Qijue Pagoda cannot be broken, and the formation of Tianyu Mountain cannot be opened. Only when Qin Jiuji leaves the Qijue Pagoda can the formation of Tianyu Mountain float on the water.

The Qijue Pagoda is to protect Qin Jiuji.

Tianyu Mountain is to protect Qin Jiuji.

Jiang Ge had already guessed that the world after 7000 years would be even more intolerable for the gods who once came to the world.

The blasphemers were punished by the Tianyu Mountain Formation.

They don't attack Qin Jiuji, and they don't need to open a big town for the heirs of Daozong.

If they ambush Qin Jiuji, Tianyu Mountain will be their burial place.

no doubt……

The current situation is: six Nascent Soul Realm monks from the six sects join forces to encircle and suppress Qin Jiuji.

The promise is very clear about what you want to do.

So before entering the secret realm to find Qin Jiuji, he had already made sufficient preparations.

The Tianyu Mountain Underground Palace is the heart of the formation, and it promises to open the formation after the six Nascent Soul cultivators enter the range.

At that time, except for Qin Jiuji who left early, everyone else will follow Tianyu Mountain and collapse.

Xu Nuo knew that she would die, so she put her beloved in the underground palace.She wanted to be buried with it, she couldn't bear it.

But I didn't expect that Qin Yong would be killed!

Xu Nuo originally wouldn't say these things, she didn't need to burden Qin Jiuji, but now...

Xu Nuo held Bai Xiaogu's hand, tears rolling down his face: "I'm sorry... I hurt him..."

For so many years, she has been living with guilt, so not only is she not afraid of the imminent death, but she feels a sense of relief.

Only now, knowing that Qin Yong will die with him, Xu Nuo feels deep fear.

After hearing this, Bai Xiaogu was stunned, he didn't know what to do, he looked at Qin Jiuji: "Master... Master don't die, promise sister don't die either... We..."

Qin Jiuji raised his finger and wiped away the tears from the little guy's eyes: "Don't cry."

Bai Xiaogu threw herself into his arms, and buried herself in his chest, sobbing.

Sister Xu is too bitter, and Master is too bitter.

It was so sad that they were separated for so many years.

Thinking of himself and Qin Jiuji, Bai Xiaogu was suddenly afraid - he should not be separated from his master, never, ever.

Hearing Bai Xiaogu's heartfelt words, Qin Jiuji felt warm all over his body: "None of them will die."

The monstrous hatred that had been in my heart for 7000 years dissipated a lot in this instant.

Qin Jiuji thought that he would never forgive the human race in this life, that once he left the Qijue Pagoda, he would definitely cause chaos in the world and make them understand what God's punishment and God's wrath are.

but now……

He didn't want the world to be in chaos, he didn't want the people to be ruined, and he didn't want the little bones to be separated from him.

His little bones should live in peace and prosperity, and should live in happiness and well-being.

Qin Jiuji stroked Bai Xiaogu's soft hair: "Damn it to me."

Bai Xiaogu was stunned, and then great fear covered all his emotions like a flood: "No, no, master can't..."

Qin Jiuji couldn't bear to make him sad, so he hurriedly said, "Fake death."

There are still teardrops hanging on Bai Xiaogu's eyelashes, trembling and not falling, this appearance is as provocative as possible.

Qin Jiuji wiped away his tears, feeling soft in his heart——

He can't die, once he dies, this little bone can cry himself to death.
