Kunlun suddenly flooded into so many monks from the Central Plains, even if Chidi City was not closed, it would not be able to entertain them.Now there are no vacant rooms in the two small inns outside the city, and the temporary camp built by Xianmeng was already full of people.

This family is in the remotest part of the city, and the house is very simple, but they can't find anything closer. It's very cold here, and it's very important to have a house that shelters from the wind and snow. This one is Xie Bian. I came here with a good voice, because the adults of this family were not there, and there was only a sister who had just grown up and a younger brother who was seven or eight years old. They were very wary of the people in the Central Plains. Only by showing a gentle and handsome smile did she win her sister's trust.

Fan Wuxi went to find Lan Chuihan, Xie Bian chatted with his sister while warming up the fire: "Little girl, what's your name?"

"Ah Lu." She sat at the table and sewed a piece of animal skin, glanced at Jie Bian from time to time, then lowered her head in a hurry, looking cautious and curious. She had never seen a person from the Central Plains, especially such a good-looking one.

"Ah Lu." Xie Bian said gently, "Where are your parents? Why aren't they at home?"

"My mother passed away very early." When Ah Lu said this, there was no obvious sadness. It seems that her mother left "very early", "My father went to the city last month to exchange money, Chidi The city was suddenly closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave." She added, "My father hunted a big wild boar, which can be exchanged for a lot of money."

"No wonder there are only the two of you at home." Xie Bian comforted, "Don't worry, everyone from the Xianmeng has come, and the Red Emperor City will be unsealed soon."

"I'm not worried." A-Lu lowered her head to thread the needle, her hands were small, but she was very skillful, she said in a relaxed and deliberate tone, "It's not uncommon for my father to go up to the mountain to hunt for prey, and it's not uncommon for him not to come back for ten days and a half months." , but this time the money and food he left are not enough, otherwise I won't let you in."

Xie Bian said sincerely, "Thank you."

Ah Lu peeked at Xie Bian again: "Anyway, you don't look like bad guys, right?"

Xie Bian smiled and said, "We are not bad people."

After chatting for a few words, Ah Lu let go of her defenses and started chatting with Xie Bian. When the sun started to set, she got up to cook, and Xie Bian also went to help.

As soon as the meal was ready, Fan Wuzhen came back just in time, the two exchanged a look, and Xie Bian knew that the news had been conveyed to Lan Chuihan.

Xie Bian asked in a low voice, "Are you being polite to others?"

"How old do you think I am?" Fan Wuxi asked bluntly.

"Still not convinced, little vinegar." Xie Bian teased with a smile, although he didn't allow Fan Wushi to offend others without reason, but the jealousy was clearly sour and sweet when tasted carefully.

Taking advantage of Ah Lu and her younger brother not paying attention, Fan Wuxi quickly bit Jie Bian's neck.

Xie Bian immediately covered it with his hand, as if he was swatting a mosquito, and then gave Fan Wuxi, who seemed nothing had happened, a look.

The four of them gathered around the low table to eat, Ah Lu's younger brother kept peeking at them, his timid appearance was very cute.Xie Bian looked at the little boy, and inexplicably, several overlapping images appeared in front of his eyes. Before he had time to look carefully, he immediately began to recite the mantra of purifying the heart silently. He didn't need to think about it, he knew that Zong Ziheng's memory was at work again.

After dinner, Ah Lu made the beds for them in her father's room, and put on a quilt cover that was washed white and patched a few places.

Fan Wuxi squeezed the quilt: "It's too thin, get another thicker one."

"It's not cold, the kang is warm." Ah Lu explained.

Fan Wuxi didn't even need to probe with his hands, his limbs were numb standing in the room, in order to save dry wood, the fire in the stove burned listlessly: "Bring me another bed, and I'll give you extra money."

Ah Lu said awkwardly: "There is no more bed."

Xie Bian said: "Forget it, his father didn't leave much firewood, so save it, it's not very cold."

Xie Bian, who said he wasn't very cold, turned his head and forgot about his dignity as a senior brother. After getting on the kang, he burrowed into Fan Wuxi's arms, wrapping the two of them tightly with a quilt.

"Isn't it cold?" Fan Wuxi smiled slightly, and moved his hand down Jie Bian's slightly convex spine, stroking it over and over again.

"I'm afraid you're cold." Xie Bian and Fan Wushi put their faces close together, squinting their eyes comfortably. He groped for Fan Wushi's other hand under the quilt, and put both hands on his chest, as if to Warm it up, as if hoping it will warm up your heart.

"Well, senior brother is so kind." Fan Wushi took Jie Bian's lower lip, sucked and bit it, and finally stuck his lips together, kissed them tightly, and said with a smirk, "I still have a place that is very cute." It's cold, I want to go into the brother's body to warm up."

Xie Bian kicked him and scolded with a smile: "Be honest."

"Senior Brother, you can just rub your hands for me." Fan Wuxi looked reluctant.

Xie Bian patted Fan Wuxi's face with both hands, and rubbed his cheek until it deformed.

Then the two of them laughed at the same time, bored in the bed, had a good time, kissed and hugged each other from time to time, chatted a few words about the situation of Chidi City, and said a few nasty love words, neither of them wanted to close their eyes.When the two of you are together, you don't need to do anything special, just being together is enough to generate the power to drive the cold from the bottom of your heart.

"Did you tell Big Brother Lan that it's time to be ugly? Then he should be here soon."

"Well, are you sleepy?" Fan Wushi stroked Jie Bian's thin eyelids with the pulp of his thumb, "Sleep for a while if you're sleepy."

"Why are you still sleeping? It's time to get up. It would be a shame if he saw him like this."

Fan Wuxi pressed him with both hands and feet to prevent him from moving: "You don't care."

"Stop it."

"It's cold outside, don't get up first."

Just as he was talking, there was a slight sound in the room, the sound was soft enough, but very deliberate, it was clearly a signal from Lan Chuihan.

The two sat up from the quilt at the same time, Xie Bian got out of bed, got dressed, opened the door and went out.

As soon as a little candle light was lit on the table, the unrestrained and unrestrained No. [-] Young Master in the World stood in front of the table. His appearance gave this simple and simple house an impact, which was exactly what the phrase "glows with flourishes".

"Brother Lan." Xie Bian said happily.When we parted last time, Lan Chuihan, who had just been rescued from the ice coffin, was still very weak. Seeing that he had recovered to his original state, he was naturally happy for him.

"Bian, you..." Lan Chuihan's eyes fell behind Xie Bian, and Fan Wuxi was coming out of the room. The room was so small that you could see everything at a glance. There was only a quilt on the bed, which was crumpled and piled up. Together, it has just been used.

Xie Bian glanced back, perhaps guilty, and quickly explained: "This family has no extra quilts." This sentence, isn't there no silver 300 taels here?

Lan Chuihan let out an "oh", and looked at Fan Wushi with deep meaning.

Fan Wuzhen gave Lan Chuihan a slight look behind Xie Bian, then turned to the room of the siblings.

"Don't worry, I'll put them to sleep temporarily." Lan Chuihan said.

"Brother Lan, sit down and talk."

Three tall and muscular men sat at a low dining table, their long legs bumped into each other's knees from time to time, making them very cramped.

Lan Chuihan looked at Xie Bian, he was full of doubts, waiting for Xie Bian to explain.

Xie Bian didn't know where to start, so he asked what he cared most about first: "Is my master okay?"

"The Celestial Master is very good, why don't you go to him?"

"Because Master forbids us to come to Kunlun."

"The Heavenly Master is worried about your safety." Lan Chuihan felt that this reason was not very convincing, "With the two cultivation bases, the Heavenly Master is too cautious, probably because the guardians are eager."

"That's right." Xie Bian asked again with concern, "Has Big Brother Lan recovered?"

"It's been fine for a long time." Lan Chuihan smiled wryly, "It's just that there is one more problem, and I'm more afraid of the cold than before."

Xie Bian comforted him with a few words: "What is the plan of Xianmeng now?"

"The Scarlet Emperor City cannot be captured in the short term, unless we wait for the Shennong Ding to be fired. At that time, most of the monks of the Cangyu Sect will go to quench the Shennong Ding. They cannot be separated. This is our only chance."

Xie Bian nodded: "I guess that's the case too, it's even more impossible for Qi Mengsheng to miss it, she should be on guard."

"No matter how defensive she is, that is when the defense of Chidi City is the weakest. We will attack the city after the Shennong Cauldron is fired."

"...Master also said so?"

Lan Chuihan frowned slightly: "The Celestial Master does not approve of attacking the city as soon as the furnace is opened, saying that it will take at least a few days to consume their spiritual power. However, human pills are very easy to refine. If you use an ordinary pill furnace to refine Ordinary human pills can take up to three days. It is said that the Shennong cauldron is used to refine the top-grade human emperor. It is said in history books that it takes seven days and seven nights, but I don’t know if it is true or not. Leader Li is worried that what will happen if her pill is finished after waiting a few days. After opening the furnace, whether to attack immediately or wait a few days before attacking, today they have not yet made a conclusion."

Xie Bian sighed.

Lan Chuihan stared at Xie Bian: "Bi'an, tell me what you are hiding from me and what you want me to do. You must have a secret to call me over behind your back, but what is there to stop now? Qi Mengsheng is more important."

Xie Bian knew that it was impossible to hide from Lan Chuihan at this time: "The reason why the master disagrees with attacking the city as soon as the furnace is opened is because he knows that Qi Mengsheng can't make a perfect emperor."

"Why?" Lan Chuihan asked puzzled, "If she can't do it, why should we bother?"

"She just can't make it right now, because the person she caught is not the reincarnation of the Emperor at all. She will find out when the furnace is opened."

Lan Chuihan looked surprised: "How do you know? Why didn't the Celestial Master know it?"

Xie Bian glanced at Fan Wuzhen, although Fan Wuzhen was expressionless, he felt relieved just by looking at this man's eyes, and he calmly said to Lan Chuihan, "Because I am the reincarnation of the Emperor. "
