Xiao Yihe left the cable bridge of Fuyun Peak, saw all the disciples holding armor and holding soldiers, looking hurriedly, only then did he realize that the mountain had been closed in the early days.

Two low-ranking disciples were patrolling the mountains. In the early days, the sword sect had never closed the mountain. The two were still young. They had just entered the inner sect this year and encountered such a major event in the sect. Apart from being nervous, they were inevitably curious. Talking while walking, I didn't notice anyone behind me.

Just as Xue Xuanwei wanted to speak out, Xiao Yihe pulled his sleeve to stop him.

"Why did we suddenly close the mountain, have you heard?"

"You don't need to hear about it. The news of the chaos of the Ten Thousand Laws Association has spread all over the world! You only know how to memorize and practice swords, and you don't know anything... Nong, did you see that formation eye in the sky?" He lowered his voice, " I heard that the night before yesterday, bloody eyes flourished, and immediately afterward, a large number of corpses and puppets poured into Kongchan Mountain. Fortunately, the master of Nanrong Sect came to help in time, otherwise Kongchanshan would end up like the puppet sect back then!"

"It's just that when the master of Nanrong sect arrived, their elder Changhong had been eaten away by the corpses, leaving only half of his body."

"This... so scary?"

Xiao Yihe's heart skipped a beat, he had already regained the bits and pieces of his memories of that time after experiencing a great dream of confusion at the Wanfa Association——

That year, hundreds of families climbed up to Jianshen Mountain in the name of an audience, and after they broke up, they stayed in Bixiao Palace to ask Xiao Yihe to come out of the mountain to save the thirty thousand lost souls of Tiantai Mountain...it was Lu Changhong of Kongchan Mountain.

He stopped for a while and heard the two disciples continue to chat.

"There's something even scarier. It's said that the devil is Xiao Liang who murdered teachers and cities during the Taoist chaos 70 years ago. He came back from the dead and said that if our suzerain doesn't hand him over within seven days, He destroys a mountain gate every day."

"Ah? Xiao Liang came back from the dead? But isn't he a deadly enmity with our suzerain? Who is he facing our suzerain? Where did you hear about it?"

"You are really stupid to seal the mountain. Now that hundreds of Xuanmen gather at the foot of the Taichu Mountain, aren't they all for the suzerain?!"

"...for the suzerain?" He followed the eyes of his companions in confusion, turning around, and suddenly saw suzerain Xue following them silently. He was so frightened that his legs shook and he almost knelt down, "I have seen the suzerain!  … ... Junior Brother Song."

Xiao Yihe raised his hand to support them, and he stood up straight against the knees of the two of them with two strengths. Unfortunately, he didn't listen completely, and he still asked: "I didn't finish what I said, what is it for?"

The young disciple glanced at Sect Master Xue who had a frosty face beside him, saw that the Sect Master pursed his lips and did not stop him, so he whispered tremblingly: "For the sake of the Sect Master who was brought back from the Wanfa Conference a few days ago... Junior Brother Song, you After the Kongchanshan incident, Xiao Liang sent a letter to hundreds of schools, saying, saying that the suzerain hesitated for a day, and he would destroy one school."

"I also said that you can be alone, but..." He swallowed, and said in a trembling voice, "It can change the world's peace."

"Pfft!" Xiao Yihe laughed, "One person can change the world? How could I not know that I am so valuable."

The two disciples huddled even more, hating which path they walked was not good, and why they chose this path.This mountain path only leads to Fuyun Peak, so there are naturally the suzerain and elders sitting in the town, so there is no need for low-level disciples like them to come and inspect.

"Sect Master..."

As soon as Xue Xuanwei waved his hand, the two immediately rolled away.

Taichu Mountain was cold all the year round, and after leaving Fuyun Peak's enchantment, the clouds and mist became even colder. He shook off the fox fur hanging from his arms and put it on Xiao Yihe, and finally said: "Don't pay attention to nonsense."

When he let him straighten his laces, Xiao Yihe looked up at the gray sky, and the salt-like snowflakes fell on the tip of his eyelashes. He fanned it a few times, leaving a little snow water on the eyelashes: "Xuanwei, it's not yet the twelfth lunar month The sky is snowing, what do you say?"

Xue Xuan said softly: "It's just because in the early days the mountain was so high and so lonely, and whenever it rained in autumn outside the mountain, the inside of the mountain would condense and turn into snow."

A little fluffy side lined Xiao Yihe's chin, which was soft, and there was a little mist from the tip of his nose: "I see, I thought I had killed too many people, and even God couldn't save so many wronged souls, so I had to send snow to show it."

Xue Xuanwei raised his eyes and saw his crooked eyes as if it was just a joke, but Xue Xuanwei's heart sank slightly, and he immediately dispelled his idea: "You are different from him, and the lives he stained on his hands cannot be counted on your head. .Even if God punishes you, it has nothing to do with you."

"He is the cause and effect I planted, a little demon that escaped when my soul was scattered... He is me, how can I say that it has nothing to do with me?" Xiao Yihe said.

Xue Xuanwei's subordinates tightened up: "If you have to say this, then I am also your cause and effect. Whether it is snowing in June or the corpses are tired, I will clean it up for you. This time, no matter what, no matter what... I will not Let senior brother leave me again."

Xiao Yihe kicked a stone under his feet, his pupils filled with warmth when he heard this, and murmured: "My karma...is so beautiful." He suddenly tiptoed and kissed Xue Xuanwei's cheek, "I like it."

Xue Xuan frowned slightly and his heart skipped a beat.

"Little cause and effect. The day I brought you up the mountain, why did I never expect that such a small thing as you would become a rope to tie me down." Seeing Xue Xuan frowned slightly, Xiao Yihe put his arms around his neck and said with a faint smile, "Don't worry Well, I haven't paid off my love debt yet, how could I be reluctant to let you go!"

Xue Xuanwei's chest was turned upside down, and finally thousands of words were condensed into a short sentence: "Don't go to see Xizhi."

When he saw Chao Xizhi, he must have wanted to get back half of the spiritual energy sealed in his body.That means, Xiao Yihe has already made a decision to go out to face the group of wolves, tigers and leopards outside the mountain, to face the evil ghost who is going around doing evil under the name of Xiao Liang.

In the past two days, the Xuanmen gathered outside the mountain. Although they could not come in, the spiritual letters were sent to Taichu one by one. There were those who questioned, questioned, and asked for kind words, and there were also Xiaozong Mountain Gates who came to seek shelter. ...It's just those few clichés repeated over and over again.

But it is more said that Taichu is the head of the Taoist sect, and he should focus on the overall situation.

What is the big picture in their eyes?

—— 70 years ago, they begged Xiao Yihe to come out of the mountain to fight the karma of tens of thousands of lives on the grounds of maintaining the reputation of Taoism, and then threw him out alone because of the grievances of the common people. , They blame Taichu for opening the mountain and handing over Song Yao in exchange for peace in the world, which is the "overall situation".

How absurd is this situation.

Xiao Yihe reached into his inner sleeve, pushed away his fingers that had been tightly clenched tightly with bulging veins, and slid them in to interlock with him: "If I hide in the mountains, avoid disaster for seven days, and watch him slaughter innocent people, then What's the difference between me and him?"

"But……"

Xiao Yihe pulled out his palm from his sleeve, put it to his lips and kissed the palm: "I swear by this seal, no matter what happens, this time I will never leave you alone like I did back then. Okay? ?”

Xue Xuanwei felt a subtle warmth penetrate into the palm of his hand, he looked down and saw a little golden glow hidden in the palm lines.Still waiting to study, Xiao Yihe turned his palm over with a slightly blushing face: "Look carefully at night when you are alone."

To put it bluntly, Xue Xuanwei reluctantly took him to Guanhua Peak.

Guanhua Peak is no colder than Fuyun Peak, because Chao Xizhi's health has been poor, Xue Xuanwei specially ordered people to draw hot springs from the ground, so that this mountain is lush and full of flowers all year round, hence the name Guanhua Peak.

It's just that when Xiao Yihe supported Xue Xuanwei's hand and jumped off the flying sword, he saw that the entire beautiful mountain was shrouded in a magic circle like a copper wall and an iron wall, like a radiant prison.

When Xiao Yihe walked in alone, Chao Xizhi was busy arranging flowers.

He bent down to pick off the withered leaves, and the shackles on his wrists appeared and disappeared.His cultivation base was not high, and now his only spiritual power was blocked, just like a mortal, until the footsteps approached, he heard it belatedly.

I thought it was the usual practice of the disciples to deliver daily necessities, but when I looked up and saw Xiao Yihe, the flower pliers in his hand clattered down.

Across a cluster of flowers, there was silence on both sides, Chao Xizhi looked at him, and clenched his cuffs tightly before he could speak.

After a while, he hastily brushed off the petals and broken leaves on his body, adjusted his posture, and finally greeted awkwardly: "Are you here? Are you... all right?"

Xiao Yihe picked up the flower pliers: "Well, it's okay."

The two were silent again.

Xiao Yihe had nothing to say: "Do you know how to serve flowers?"

Chao Xizhi gave a soft "hmm": "I know a thing or two."

There was still a silence.

After a long time, Chao Xizhi saw that he was wearing fox fur on his shoulders, and the tip of his nose was slightly frozen red. He reacted suddenly, rubbed his hands against his body, walked quickly into the hall, picked up the tea urn that had been sitting on the small stove, and thought Pour him a cup of hot tea.

Maybe he was too nervous, his fingers were burned, the copper pot suddenly overturned, rolled on the ground a few times, and stopped at the feet of Xiao Yihe who had just stepped in, braving the scalding heat.

Chao Xi subconsciously looked at the inner room, and saw that it was quiet, so she went to clean it up lightly, and explained to Xiao Yihe: "I heard that Dao is recuperating in my palace, and he has already taken medicine and fell asleep at this time... for his sake... I was injured while protecting me, and I don't feel at ease living alone elsewhere, so I specifically asked Xuanwei for permission to send him to my side."

Xiao Yihe said enviously: "You are really kind to the apprentice."

Chao Xizhi lifted the copper pot with a towel, hesitated for a while, and asked him tentatively: "That person said, I was not a responsible and good master before, and I even killed people like hemp. I have become more and more serious these days." I dream more and more... things about you and Xuanwei."

"I used to...was it bad for you? Was it bad for Xuanwei?"

There are several old pianos in the room, and there is an untranscribed sheet music on the table, Xiao Yihe smiled wryly: "You don't have to believe everything that person said, you and my master are not the same person."

But Xiao Yihe had to admit that Master's remnant soul had been sealed in his body for too long, decades of subtle influence made his demeanor and posture more and more similar to Master's.

He was in a trance for a moment, and his mood was slightly turbulent, but he calmed down quickly: "I should apologize to you. It is because of my negligence that I caused you unreasonable distress today. The reason why my master chose you is probably Because of my unintentional words."

Chao Xizhi blinked at him, his eyes were like autumn water, and there was a bit of puzzlement in his eyes.

Xiao Yihe stroked the old piano on the table, and said: "70 years ago, when my master's remnant soul escaped, half of it got into your sea of ​​consciousness. This half of the remnant soul has been sealed by half of my spirit essence—then Before, I told him that I hope that in the next life I will not practice immortality or enter Taoism, but just be a pair of ordinary masters and apprentices reciting poems and playing the piano."

Chao Xizhi let out a soft "ah".

"I just want to tell you that what you dreamed about was only influenced by the remnant soul of my master, not something you have done before."

He looked at Chao Xizhi, and swallowed back the rest of the words. It was difficult for him to say the words that he wanted to dissect the half of the soul into these gentle and pure eyes.

Maybe, maybe not moving this half of the spiritual energy, there are other ways.Thinking this way, he stood up in a daze: "I just came to see and hear the truth. It's nothing. I'm leaving first."

Xiao Yihe turned around and walked out of the hall, when a voice suddenly came from behind: "Yihe."

He stopped suddenly.

"Yihe, can I call you that?" Chao Xizhi said, putting his hand on his chest, "You take this half of the spirit yuan away. I have heard about the things outside, and now the situation is tense. It must be very important to you and Xuanwei."

Xiao Yihe paused for a while, and said truthfully: "If you don't touch this seal, you can still be stable for a hundred years; if you lift it now, maybe you will forget the time you spent as Chao Xizhi, forget hearing the Tao, and forget the relationship with Xuanwei all these years. Friendship..."

Chao Xizhi shook his head, and smiled softly: "I know that Xuanwei confines me here to protect me. But recently, I have become more and more restless. Sometimes when I think of you and Xuanwei, my heart is always suffocated. Sore and bloated. Sooner or later, I won't know who I am."

"It's just," Zhao Xizhi looked into the inner room, "If the seal is released, I really won't remember Wen Dao. I hope you can help me take care of him for a while... and then tell him when he recovers. Although Wen Dao Sentimental, but with a clear mind, it won't take long to understand."

"Chao Xizhi--"

Chao Xizhi interrupted him and said, "Okay! No matter what the reason is, if it weren't for the support of this half of the spirit essence, if it wasn't for Xuanwei who brought me back from the mass grave, I'm afraid I would have died in the disaster that year. Just There would never be such a well-behaved disciple who heard the Tao, and it would be impossible for him to enter the Tao and see such a vast and boundless world."

He held Xiao Yihe's hand, pointed to his dantian, and said in a more determined tone: "Yihe, don't hesitate—now is the best time, this is the end for you and me."
