Wu Changjie

The news of Xu Zhinan's death caused an uproar in the world of cultivating immortals. According to news, he was appointed as the head of the sect when he was in danger. The first thing he did was to order the arrest of Yun Xiangyi and Hua Xiangrong. Silently put pressure on Cangyu Sect in the name of the Immortal Alliance, and handed over the two people who killed Xu Zhinan and stole the Seven-Star Life-Extending Lamp.

The Xianmeng has the rules of the Xianmeng. The Chunyang sect has such a big incident, other sects cannot just sit idly by. If this is true, all sects must unite to crusade against the Cangyu sect.

These two female cultivators are worthy of being the successors that Qi Mengsheng personally cultivated. After they cultivated well, they escaped silently from Chudi, where the Chunyang Sect overwhelmed the sky with one hand. Once they were out of the gate, it was almost impossible to catch them.

The whole Jingzhou was silent in grief, and the common people spontaneously wore mourning and guarded Xu Zhinan's spirit. The city was filled with white hemp and thousands of candle lights, which was a magnificent sight.

Within three days, people from various sects who came to express their condolences arrived one after another. Li Buyu claimed to be old, so he sent his son, and the owner of the Moon Pavilion brought Lan Chuanhan in person.

Lan Chuihan once practiced in Chunyang Sect when he was young. Although Xu Zhinan had retreated for 18 years, he only met the master when he was very young and didn’t have much impression, but he has benefited from the experience in Chunyang Sect all his life. The funeral was held as a disciple outside the teaching room, and they stayed together for three nights.

Before the funeral, Zhong Kui came back. Xie Bian had a lot of questions to ask, but before he could open his mouth, Zhong Kui stopped him with a gesture: "Let's go back and talk about it."

Xie Bi'an felt even more uneasy in his heart.

After Xu Zhinan's funeral, Zhong Kui left in a hurry and ordered Xie Bian to pack his luggage.

"Master, where are we going?"

"Cang Yumen."

"Ah?" Xie Bian was surprised, "Go to the Cangyu Gate? Are you going to catch those two nuns?"

"No, there is something very important that requires me to see Qi Mengsheng in person."

Fan Wushi said: "But Xu Zhinan's last request?" Both Xu Zhinan and Qi Mengsheng were once turbulent figures in the Emperor Zong's era. Xu Zhinan raised the Konghua Emperor to Zhong Kui as if he was dying, and it must be a big deal. What does this series of strange events from Shushan to Jingzhou have to do with Zong Ziheng?What is the cause and effect that the time spanning a hundred years has not ended yet?

"Well." Zhong Kui said, "I should have gone to the Wuliang Sect to ask Li Buyu to explain Zong Minghe's matter, now...it's not too late, let's go."

"Master, don't we say goodbye to Elder Zhaowen?"

"He's too busy to touch the ground. I've already let him know."

"...Okay." Xie Bian always felt that he left in such a hurry, as if he was escaping from something. He thought that Zhong Kui might be afraid that Zhao Wen and others would take a breather and ask him about Xu Zhinan's last words.

When the three of them left, Xie Bian slapped his forehead and thought of something again: "I don't have time to talk to Brother Lan these few days, at least I'll go and say goodbye."

Fan Wuxi dragged him back: "Didn't you see Master, are you in a hurry, let's go."

"Are you in a hurry for this moment?"

"Yes." Fan Wuxi pulled him out of Luo Jinwu's mountain gate involuntarily.

It was a long way to go to Kunlun, and they couldn't keep their swords all the time, so they rode on the road.

At this time, spring has just started, and the climate is slightly cold, but it gets colder as you go northwest, as if you are going back to winter.

Along the way, Zhong Kui was silent most of the time, asking him nothing, completely different from his usual appearance.

A few days later, they reached the sandbar.This is the largest border station in the Northwest. After crossing the sandbar, it is just outside the pass. After leaving the pass, there is no longer a carriage station, and travelers have to replenish their supplies here.

Although Xie Bian has also traveled around, this is the first time he has come to such a far place. He has never seen many things sold in the city, so he took a good look around while he was getting supplies.

When passing a bookstall, the vendor was enthusiastically selling a book to a pair of young men.

"After seeing the two of you, this book is suitable for this book. This "Treasure of Flowers" is rich in content, novel and interesting, and this version also has illustrations."

Fan Wuxi raised his eyebrows slightly, and a narrow light flashed in his eyes. He turned around and walked to the bookstall: "What book is really so good?"

The vendor had a loud voice, and Xie Bian heard it too, and was about to leave quickly, but he didn't pay attention to Fan Wuxi, and suddenly felt his head swell.

The pair of young men looked at each other ambiguously and laughed lowly.

The vendor looked at Fan Wuxi, his eyes lit up, and he picked up another book and handed it to him: "Hey, this young man is so handsome, you are a discerning person, this book is very good, take a look I will know."

Fan Wuxi brought it over and wanted to read it, but Xie Bian snatched the book and scolded: "What are you reading, this kind of boring wild book will not improve you, so don't read it."

One of the men showed a charming smile: "This young master is also a monk, so you are being narrow-minded. If this kind of thing is interesting, it will be of great benefit to the cultivation base."

Xie Bian was a little embarrassed, but his face was very open and generous, and he explained with a smile: "Fellow Taoist misunderstood, this is my junior brother." He had heard that people outside the pass were wild and unrestrained, and saw the young couple's unabashed intimacy in front of others. , it seems to be true.

Fan Wuxi pretended to be puzzled and said: "Senior brother, what are you talking about? When you were at home last time, you didn't let me read this book. You like flowers, and I am also interested. Why don't I study it and help you with it?" Plant flowers."

The young couple laughed together with the vendor.

Xie Bian really wanted to take Fan Wushi into the ground, he coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: "This book is not about growing flowers, let's go, brother will explain to you later."

"Young master, you are not a real brother. You keep this kind of good stuff privately, but you don't show it to you." The street vendor didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and he laughed and pointed out his five fingers, "As long as you have five copper coins, I guarantee you won't regret it." .”

Xie Bian glanced sideways at the vendor, put the book back, grabbed Fan Wuxi's wrist, and was about to drag him away.

But Fan Wuxi refused to leave: "Brother, I want to see it." He really liked to see Jie Bian's expression now, he had done all kinds of nasty things to this person, made this person ashamed countless times, but it was all humiliation, Shame, embarrassment, there is always an unresolved worry between his brows, never before has such a lively and lovely look, he doesn't want to miss it.

The young couple laughed tremblingly.

"No deterrence!" Xie Bian feigned anger, "I won't watch it if I say so."

"This "Treasure of Flowers" is about the love affairs between men." The young man snickered, "Aren't the two of you fellows?"

Fan Wuxi looked at Xie Bian in surprise: "Brother, this book..."

Xie Bian dragged Fan Wuxi away with brute force.

"Brother, is what they said true? Why do you have that book."

"At that time, the owner of the bookstall said that it would be cheaper to buy five books. How could I know what kind of books they were, so I bought them casually." After Xie Bian finished explaining, he took a peek at Fan Wuxi, and seeing his disbelief as expected, he said in a more serious tone, " real!"

"Then the two people just now, could it be the partners of Shuangxiu?"

"Maybe, outside the pass, this is quite common."

"I've heard that this method of cultivation really works."

Xie Bian just wanted to blur the topic as quickly as possible: "Well, um."

"Brother, have you ever thought about dual cultivation?" Fan Wuxi looked at Xie Bian.

"Of course not, there is no shortcut to the road of asking, we still have to keep our feet on the ground..."

"I thought about it."

Xie Bian was stunned.

Fan Wuxi gently moved the corner of his mouth, showing an ambiguous smile, his gaze was shockingly deep: "I thought about it."

Jie Bi'an's heart trembled, he seemed to have seen such eyes before, but it was clearly not like his usual junior, he had never been seen with such aggressive eyes of a hunter, but faintly, he felt familiar.

Some messy pictures and words flashed in his mind, he couldn't distinguish anything, but he could feel, he felt chaos, violence, shame, unbearable.Ever since he fainted on the Yunwei gossip stage and had that messy dream, something flashed in his mind from time to time.He has watched the reincarnation of life and death since he was a child, and he does not hesitate to think that these are the memories of his previous life.

As for why the gossip platform touched the memory deep in the soul, who was Xiaojiu in the dream, and why he was entangled with the man, although he was curious, he actually didn't want to know the answer.He met too many people who couldn't let go of the past life and refused to drink Mengpo soup, and all of them were forever sunk in memory and could not be freed.If you can't let go of the past, you can't move forward to the future. How can he not understand this truth as a ghost, so he doesn't want to know the cause and effect of the previous life, as long as he lives well in this life.

Seeing that he was in a daze, Fan Wuxi frowned, "Will Senior Brother look down on me?"

Xie Bian shook his head helplessly, showing his usual gentle and open smile: "How could it be, if one day, you really meet the person you love, the senior brother will bless you."

Fan Wuxi's Adam's apple slipped, and the desire in his heart was ready to come out.He clearly knows that they in this life are different from those in the previous life, so he must hold his breath, what he wants is Xie Bian's willingness, but he is used to plunder, control, and whatever he wants, he wishes he could get over these cumbersome things, and let him go for a hundred years Acacia.

"Let's go back to the inn."

The two returned to the inn with the things they bought, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Zhong Kui having a drink with Mr. Pianpian in a blue shirt.

"Brother Lan?" Xie Bian asked in surprise.

Fan Wuxi's face darkened in an instant, and he said bluntly, "Why is the ghost lingering on?"

"Bian." Lan Chuihan stood up and said with a smile, "I worked hard and finally caught up with you."

"You came to see us? Why?"

"I want to go to the Cangyu Gate with you."
