Xue Lang seemed to be still immersed in the thoughts just now, and he let Meng Chen lead him away out of his mind.Meng Chen glanced at him and asked aloud, "What are you thinking?"

Xue Lang came back to his senses, subconsciously replied: "I think you were so fierce just now."

It was the first time he saw Meng Chen reprimanding people so mercilessly, that kind of cold and majestic demeanor and momentum made him just watch from the sidelines, his little heart trembled a little, and he didn't blame those disciples Qi was frightened into a quail.

Hearing this, Meng Chen turned to look at him: "Is there any?"

The coldness on the young man's face has disappeared at this moment, replaced by a kind of sincere innocence, those beautiful eyes blinked slowly, filled with a trace of confusion and doubt, which made Xue Lang inexplicably think of some kind of person who escaped from the deep forest. Come out and look around at the small animals that can't find their way.

Is this, this is really the same person as Meng Chen just now! !

Xue Lang's heart was beating wildly when he saw him. At the same time, he suddenly realized that Meng Chen had always been alienated from others. It seemed that only in front of him would he be extra patient and gentle, showing a very rare and lively side. .

This realization made his chest burn and his throat felt a little itchy. At this moment, he found out slowly that Meng Chen had been holding his right hand.

That hand was fair and slender, and the temperature between the fingers was slightly cool. It wrapped around his fingers loosely, and pressed the skin between their fingers together.He stared at the fingers that were holding each other, and suddenly he couldn't think about anything, and his mind went blank.

Meng Chen followed Xue Lang's straight gaze and realized that he was still holding him, so he opened his fingers lightly.

Xue Lang subconsciously hooked his hands to fish when the coolness left, and then froze in the air for a moment, then put it back as if nothing had happened, and quietly wiped the sweat from his palms on the front of his clothes.

"Where do we go next?" he asked.

Meng Chen thought for a while, but he didn't know what he thought of, and there was a hint of mystery and excitement on his face, "Come with me."

Xue Lang followed him, thinking that he was going somewhere to explore and hunt for treasures, but he never thought that Meng Chen would lead all the way to a small green grassy hillside.There are small pale pink and young wild flowers blooming everywhere on the hillside, and on the top of the slope there is a banyan tree that has grown for an unknown number of years, supporting an oval dark green canopy, lush and lush, and a single tree forms a forest.

Xue Lang looked around, and saw that the place was quiet and quiet, and there were no colored labels posted around it, so it didn't look like a secret level.But Meng Chen had already climbed up the hillside, came to the big banyan tree, bent slightly, and looked for something on it seriously.

Xue Lang followed up, thinking that there was some hidden mechanism on the tree, and bent over to stare at it for a long time just like him, but found nothing, so he could only ask at a loss: "What are you looking for?"

"Looking for..." Meng Chen focused his eyes, showing a happy smile, tapped a certain place on the bark with his fingertips, and said, "I found it."

Xue Lang looked at it immediately, and saw a faint scratch on Meng Chen's fingertip. Before he could ask any doubts, Meng Chen took the initiative to explain: "This mark was made when I entered the secret realm last time."

Xue Lang was startled: "Last time?"

The Taixuan Secret Realm is opened once every ten years, and the last time Meng Chen came, it was only...

"13 years old." With a little smile in Meng Chen's eyes, he tapped the mark lightly, "I was only this tall at that time."

Suddenly, Xue Lang went to look at the scratch, and found that it was only as high as his waist.

Is 13-year-old Meng Chen so young?

Meng Chen's eyes were also a little distant.He was 13 years old when he first entered Taixuanzong, and it took him five months to practice to build a foundation, just in time for the opening of the secret realm.At that time, he always felt lonely, senior brother Pei Yuze was difficult to get close to, master Zhong Lijing's whereabouts were uncertain, Tianji Peak was far away from other peaks, and usually had no chance to know other fellow disciples, and after the secret realm was opened, they were all friends. When they went in as a group, he was alone, with only a sword by his side.

"When I carved this mark, I was thinking, what will I be like in ten years, how much taller and stronger will I be?" Meng Chen looked at the scratch and recalled his feelings at that time, as if he would. The ignorant but expectant child, "The most important thing is, after ten years, will there be someone around me who will accompany me to explore the secret realm?"

He turned to look at Xue Lang, with a clear smile in his eyes: "Now, I already know the answer."

Xue Lang stared at him fixedly, and seemed to see a thin and small figure in front of his eyes. He gestured and carved a mark for himself, and looked forward to reciting the words. For some reason, his eyes were a little bit astringent, and he said: "Not only."

Meng Chen: "What?"

"Not only now." Xue Lang said, "Ten years later, I will still be with you."

Meng Chen looked at the boy's unusually serious face when he spoke, his fingertips trembled slightly, and an indescribable emotion surged up in his heart. Before he could think about it carefully, he heard a faint "boom" coming from a distance. A loud noise, accompanied by the screams of many people, quickly approached here.

Meng Chen and Xue Lang turned their heads to look at the same time, and saw a group of people quickly appearing in sight. They were all in a state of embarrassment, all running wildly with their heads covered, buttocks covered, and in the sky behind them, a giant ferocious falcon The falcon spread its wings and chased after it. The falcon's wings were more than ten meters long. Every time it flapped, a small whirlwind would blow up, blowing the fleeing people upside down. From time to time, it would open its mouth and spit out balls of fireballs, smashing them to the ground angrily. Once burned, it is a big pit.

Xue Lang recognized with sharp eyes that some of them were the companions who came in with him, and there were also some unfamiliar faces, who should be disciples of various peaks.Those people also found someone on the hillside, but they didn't see who it was while running for their lives. They just waved at them desperately and shouted loudly: "Brother, run!!"

This ferocious falcon has a very strong attack power. If it were a monk, it would be at the Nascent Soul level. All of them couldn't fight together, so they had to run desperately, trying to get rid of this falcon.

Seeing from a distance that two innocent members of the same family were about to be implicated by them, they hurriedly shouted warnings, but they did not expect that the two stood motionless on the hillside, and the one in black even drew his sword and pointed his toes He flew up to meet him.

Depend on! !

Which buddy is so tough, dare to be tough with this Nascent Soul-level big bird! ! !

They were so anxious that they fought desperately to make the other party retreat. The next moment, they felt the cold air overwhelming the sky, and a sharp sword qi whizzed across their heads, hitting the giant falcon in the air, and the giant falcon was immediately pulled back more than ten meters. He turned several somersaults dizzily in the air, screaming and fluttering his feathers.

All the fleeing people stopped in unison, and looked back dumbfounded, only to see the giant falcon flapping its injured wings, and had already disappeared without a trace.

Only then did they finally see who the sword was.

"Brother Meng!!"

Liu Xuanxuan was overjoyed, and grabbed Wan Qiu's hand beside her and shook it severely, "So it's Senior Brother Meng!"

Wan Qiu was also very excited to escape from the danger, but also a little surprised.She had met Meng Chen once before, and she only remembered that the young man was wearing the azure school uniform of the sect at that time, as bright as the moon and as bright as snow, but she didn't expect to see him wearing black at the moment, and she hardly dared to recognize him for a while.

It was also the first time for Liu Xuanxuan to see Meng Chen wearing a black robe. She was surprised but felt that she deserved to be Senior Brother Meng, who was the face value of the sect. He could wear any color and look so good no matter how you looked at it! !

Xiao Guan also heaved a sigh of relief, brushed the ends of his hair that were scorched by the fireball, and went forward with a smile: "It's a good thing I bumped into you, otherwise I don't know when I will run away."

Zhao Jingchen bowed to Meng Chen and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother Meng, for your help!"

Looking at it this way, there are really quite a few people gathered here, Xiao Guan and Zhao Jingchen, and the disciples of Wu Zhaofeng and Yuhuafeng they led respectively, several junior sisters of Cuixia Peak, and new disciples this year, there are a total of twenty or thirty people. personal.

Meng Chen put his sword back into its sheath: "Are you going to explore Luan Qingu?"

"Yes." Xiao Guan said, "I thought the Jindan stage was enough, but who knew that a Nascent Soul bird suddenly appeared, and was almost burned to death by its spout of fire. It was a mistake."

"Although Chaos Bird Valley is dangerous, it also has many magic weapons." Meng Chen comforted, "Looking at the giant falcon chasing so desperately, you must have taken some treasures, right?"

Hearing what he said, everyone laughed together, Xiao Guan shook the storage ring, and a big egg half as tall as a man came out.

Meng Chen: "...?"

"Giant falcon's egg!" Xiao Guan patted the egg proudly, "It is said that it is very delicious!!"

Zhao Jingchen stood aside, nodding heavily in agreement.

Meng Chen was silent for a moment, and asked with some difficulty: "So you bravely ventured into the Chaotic Bird Valley just for this egg?"

"We were going for the magic treasure." Liu Xuanxuan said, "I accidentally saw an egg in the giant falcon's nest. Brother Xiao said that the egg of the raptor is delicious, so we changed our way and went for the egg."

Meng Chen: "..."

Taixuan's disciples are indeed very individual.

"I'm exhausted after running for a long time, and it happens to be quiet here, come and eat eggs together!" Xiao Guan patted Meng Chen's shoulder and warmly invited all his disciples to the hillside, "Yo, Xue Lang is here too! You, senior brother Meng, have such a good relationship, you are inseparable, this is it!"

Xue Lang greeted everyone, he and Meng Chen were not in a hurry, so they sat down with everyone under the banyan tree on the hillside.The juniors spontaneously found branches nearby to build them up, made a simple bracket to put the eggs on, and then lit a few fire charms to start roasting the eggs.

The firepower of the burning talisman was ferocious, and the bird's egg soon gave off a tempting fragrance. Xiao Guan pulled out his sword, brushed his sword a few times under the eager eyes of all the disciples, and split the bird's egg into several pieces evenly and neatly. Tsk tsk praised himself: "Good swordsmanship!"

Meng Chen: "..."

Well, the Taixuan swordsmanship was originally for you to split eggs.

"Come, come, I'll give you the first one!" Xiao Guan handed Meng Chen a piece of warm bird's egg exuding an attractive aroma, "If I hadn't met you, I might not be able to eat this meal!"

Meng Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a while, and took the bird egg: "Thank you."

The other disciples couldn't wait to share the rest of the eggs, and while eating happily, they laughed and laughed at each other's embarrassing image of being chased just now.Sitting next to Meng Chen, Xiao Guan took a bite of the delicious and soft egg yolk, glanced at Meng Chen, and suddenly sighed: "I suddenly feel that you are a little popular."

Meng Chen swallowed a mouthful of the egg yolk, and looked at him with some confusion.

"To be honest, don't be angry." Xiao Guan said with a smile, "Before, although I admired you very much, I felt that you were not so... approachable. When I met you occasionally, I just nodded and wanted to be with you. If you make friends, you will always be scared back by your cold face."

Meng Chen thought about it after hearing the words.Indeed, when he first entered the sect, he concentrated on cultivating at Tianji Peak every day, and had little chance to meet the disciples of the outer peak. Later, after he got close to Pei Yuze and Yin Chi, he seldom interacted with other disciples.Occasionally meet one or two classmates who get along well, and often only meet a few times before being pestered and acted like a baby by Yin Chi, saying that he was neglected and left out.He has always pampered Yin Chi, and hearing what the other party said, he walked away from those classmates who could not become friends in the future.

Now that I think about it, it's kind of silly.

"I'm sorry," he said, "I didn't mean to."

"Hey, I didn't mean to blame you!" Xiao Guan waved his hand quickly, and said with a smile, "It's just that I never thought that I could sit side by side with you and drink wine...cough, when I talk happily with eggs, my heart Very happy."

Meng Chen couldn't help laughing slightly when he heard his random words.

Xue Lang sat on the other side of Meng Chen, watching the young man talk to the other people with pleasant looks. Although there was a little bit of grievance in his heart that was ignored, he was more emotional and happy.

That person should have gone out like this, met some interesting people, seen some interesting things, felt some sincere feelings, and then became more cheerful and happier than before.

As long as he is happy.

Liu Xuanxuan and Wan Qiu fiddled with each other for a while, then walked over with a clean handkerchief in their hands: "Senior Brother Meng, these are the crispy dates we just picked on the road, cleaned, please try it!"

The jujubes were round and bright red, and they were plump. They lay obediently in the plain handkerchief, and they looked extraordinarily delicious.Xiao Guan scolded with a smile: "Damn girl, I only give it to you Senior Brother Meng, didn't you see that Senior Brother Xiao is also beside you?"

Liu Xuanxuan is not afraid of him, "Eat yours, even such a big egg can't stop your mouth!"

Meng Chen looked into the girl's clear and kind eyes, took the handkerchief with both hands, and said warmly: "Thank you two junior sisters. There is also the needle and thread I borrowed from you last time."

"Oh, you're welcome!" Liu Xuanxuan quickly waved her hands and said with a smile, "It's my honor to be able to help Senior Brother!"

The two girls walked back briskly, Xiao Guan directly took a jujube from the handkerchief and stuffed it into his mouth, he said vaguely: "We are also brothers who share weal and woe, and share the blessings!"

Meng Chen let him eat, and he took a red date and tasted it, it was really sweet.

He picked up another one and looked to the side, just in time to see Xue Lang holding the eggshell in both hands, nibbling the egg white while staring at him eagerly, like a puppy who has been neglected by the owner for a long time, lonely, Wronged and pitiful.

Meng Chen's heart softened at that gaze, and he fed the dates in his hand to Xue Lang's lips.

Xue Lang seemed completely unresponsive, his eyes slowly moved down to Zaozi, and then slowly turned up to his face.

"Open your mouth," Meng Chen said softly, "It's very sweet, try it."

Xue Lang's eyes fell on the fair fingers around his lips again, his handsome face was a little red, he opened his mouth without saying a word, and ate the jujube.

"Sweet?"

Xue Lang was a little afraid to look at him, so he looked away and replied in a low voice: "Sweet."

Meng Chen smiled, seeing that the young man couldn't move his hand while holding the eggshell, he naturally took another one and fed it again.

Xiao Guan watched from the side, inexplicably felt that the jujube in his hand was no longer sweet, and the eggs were no longer fragrant.

Is it because he doesn't have such a touching blessing of brotherhood, so even eating is boring! ?

Thinking of this, he picked up a red date, and stuffed it into the mouth of Zhao Jingchen who was sitting next to him without any explanation: "Come on, brother Zhao, brother, give you a date!"

Zhao Jingchen who was caught off guard by a mouthful of jujube: "...?"
