Mu Zhi hadn't been this happy for a long time.
His eyebrows and eyes were curved, and he hugged the crane's neck and kept telling his fantasy about the future. After sweeping away the gloom of the past few days, he seemed to have turned back into that carefree little bird.
But it's just a look.
Since some things have already happened, they are destined to leave some indelible traces, and they will never be able to return to the time when they were intact.
After suffering from a serious illness, Mu Zhi was no longer as energetic as before. Before finishing a sentence, he couldn't help but yawned a lot.
After beating, he pursed the corners of his lips in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Xianhe, I'm a little sleepy."
The crane turned its head, its black bean-like eyes were full of tolerance, it hugged Mu Zhi in its arms with its wings, and patted it gently.
Mu Zhi leaned against the crane's arms, a cluster of soft and fluffy feathers streaked across the tip of his nose, carrying the gentle breath of the sun.
Mu Zhi suddenly wanted to cry.
Since he came to Changming Peak, all the human beings he met disliked him, his kindness was fake, and his concern was also fake.
Only Uncle Xianhe would hug him and comfort him so tenderly.
Mu Zhi sucked the tip of his nose, and said in a muffled voice: "Uncle Xianhe, you are so kind." He said seriously, "It's a good thing that Uncle Xianhe is here, otherwise..."
Otherwise, he would really be hated by everyone if he thought it was his own problem.
Fortunately, Uncle Xianhe is his friend.
Sensing Mu Zhi's strangeness, Xian He lowered his head, gently rubbing his cheek as if treating his own child.Although it can't speak, its actions are enough to show everything.
Mu Zhi laughed through tears, completely relaxed.He pressed his cheek into the arms of the crane, and murmured in a low voice: "I'll sleep for a while, just for a while."
The sun shone on the other side of his cheek, like a faint golden light.
The crane didn't say anything, just moved its wings, and gently pulled the sleeping Mu Zhi into its arms.
At this time, Changming Peak was especially quiet, the breeze was blowing slowly, and only the leaves of sycamore trees were shaking around.
Everything looks so peaceful and beautiful.
Mu Zhi slept soundly this time, and didn't have any more nightmares.
In his dream, he ran and had fun among the sycamore trees all over the mountains and plains, sang when he was happy, and plucked the fruits from the branches to taste freely when he was tired and thirsty.
The scene in the dream was so wonderful that when Mu Zhi opened his eyes, he didn't wake up completely from this beautiful dream.
He stared blankly at the scenery in front of him.
The sun is setting and the dusk is all together.
The orange light slanted down on Changming Peak, like a burning cloud.
For a moment, Mu Zhi thought he had really returned to Wutong Township.
It's just that the cold wind on the cliff brought him back to reality.
This is Changming Peak.
Mu Zhi felt a little cold suddenly, and couldn't stop shivering.
The crane's eyes showed concern.
Mu Zhi hugged his shoulders, his expression unavoidably downcast: "It's okay, I'm just a little homesick..." He calmed down and forced a smile, "But Changming Peak is also very good, there is Uncle Xianhe, There are Immortal Venerables, and the sycamore tree that was just planted."
He gestured: "When the plane tree grows a little longer, I can sleep on it."
The crane listened quietly and let out a low cry.
Mu Zhi blinked, and said freely, "It's really all right."
Xian He saw Mu Zhi's strong smile and wanted to make him happier, so he raised his head and pointed to the sky.
It wants to take Mu Zhi out for a stroll.
Mu Zhi was moved, but after hesitating for a moment, he still refused: "Forget it, I don't want to go out."
Xianzun asked him to stay in Changming Peak and not to go out if he had nothing to do.
Besides, he didn't want to go out either.There are so many bad guys out there, if you are not careful, you will be bullied.
Mu Zhi ignored the strange feeling in his heart, and changed the subject: "I'm going to see the bird's nest—"
He stood on tiptoe and looked up at the bird's nest on the plane tree.
The bird's nest is about to be built, and it is dotted with a magnificent gemstone. The light and shadow change, like a star falling into the world.
A bright streamer reflected in Mu Zhi's eyes.
He is about to become a Taoist couple with Xianzun.
He left Wutong Township and came to Changming Peak thousands of miles away. Isn't all this just to be with Xianzun?
This is the path he chose.
If you retreat now, isn't everything you did before meaningless?
It doesn't matter if you are hated by everyone.As long as you form a Taoist couple with Xianzun, everything will be fine.
Mu Zhi said to himself: "Everything will be fine." He turned his head, "Uncle Xianhe, do you think so?"
Crane nodded.
Mu Zhi bid farewell to Uncle Xianhe, and walked briskly back to the residence.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw a deserted figure sitting in the flower hall.
Mu Zhi's footsteps stopped, and he didn't even notice that the smile on his face gradually faded.
Xianzun is back.
Gu Lingyun is not often in Changming Peak, and his whereabouts are uncertain. Sometimes he goes to the secret place to seek panacea, and sometimes he goes to kill demons to calm down the Quartet, becoming the revered Changming Immortal Venerable in others' mouths.
These things are very far away for Mu Zhi, he just stays at Changming Peak, obediently waiting for the immortal to come back.
Counting it, Mu Zhi hasn't seen Gu Lingyun for half a month.
If it was Mu Zhi from before, he would have moved over happily, raised his face, and whispered about the pain of lovesickness.
But these behaviors are often considered "inappropriate" in Gu Lingyun's eyes, and they are usually avoided and coldly rejected.
After experiencing such scenes several times, Mu Zhi became obedient and became reserved.
Seeing Gu Lingyun now, I can no longer feel excited, even the joy is as flat as water.He just stood where he was, and obediently called out: "Xianzun."
Unknowingly, Mu Zhi has been domesticated.
He polished off all unnecessary edges and corners, and tried his best to get closer to the appearance Gu Lingyun wanted.
Gu Lingyun didn't look back, and asked calmly, "Where did you go?"
Mu Zhi's hands were behind his back, entangled nervously: "I, I..."
Mu Zhi is not good at lying, but he wanted to take this incident as a surprise, so he hesitated and couldn't hold out a complete sentence for a long time.
Fortunately, Gu Lingyun only asked casually, and didn't really want to know.He beckoned: "Come here."
Mu Zhi moved his steps and came in front of Gu Lingyun.
Without saying anything, he half-kneeled on the cushion and gently leaned on Gu Lingyun's shoulder.
Gu Lingyun's body was very cold, like a handful of snow that had not melted for a thousand years, it made people feel the biting cold.
Mu Zhi trembled subconsciously, but did not avoid it.
Gu Lingyun glanced sideways.
The boy's skin was fair, revealing a touch of jade-colored luster, his eyes were lowered, and he looked obedient and obedient.It seems that everything is under his control.
Gu Lingyun put his hand on Mu Zhi's shoulder, stroking Bai Shengsheng's cheek with his fingertips.
Mu Zhi's skin is raw and tender, while Gu Lingyun's fingers are covered with a thin layer of calluses, the two of them will definitely not be comfortable touching each other.
He bit the corner of his lip, suppressing the discomfort.
After a while, Gu Lingyun let go of his hand.
He still remembered that when Mu Zhi first came to Changming Peak, he was an excited and happy bird, chirping and making noise all day long.
Since when did you become the obedient and obedient person you are now?
Gu Lingyun's memory is not clear, but it's not important, he just thinks that Mu Zhi like this is more to his liking than before.
Satisfied with such an obedient little bird, Gu Lingyun touched the top of Mu Zhi's head and asked, "What do you want?"
Mu Zhi's eyes widened slightly: "What?"
Gu Lingyun said concisely: "The reward is for you."
Rewards and punishments are clear.
If you do something wrong, you will be punished; if you obey, you will be rewarded.
Mu Zhi grew up in Wutong Township since he was a child, as long as he has food and clothing, he is satisfied, and he doesn't have too many requirements for things outside his body.
He didn't want anything, and he was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, he tentatively said, "I want gems... shiny gems."
Birds naturally like shiny things.
A well-built bird's nest also needs gems to embellish, only one is too little.
Gu Lingyun nodded: "Okay."
Mu Zhi's eyes lit up.
Gu Lingyun took Mu Zhi's performance into his eyes, and felt smug in his heart.
The obedient little bird is lovable, but occasionally cheerful, it seems... not so difficult to accept.
Gu Lingyun took Mu Zhi to the warehouse.
In the storeroom are Gu Lingyun's collections over the years. As an Immortal Master of Eternal Brightness, he has countless secret realm spiritual veins under his name. The richness of his private collection is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
As soon as the door of the storeroom was opened, dense aura burst out, the aura was so strong that it almost condensed into a solid body.
When the aura dissipated, it could be seen that all kinds of spiritual plants, elixir, weapons and armor were neatly placed in it, and priceless jewelry and antiques were piled up in the corner, all of which had accumulated into a hill.
Mu Zhi straightened his eyes and sighed, "There are so many."
Mu Zhi had never seen so many treasures, and felt that his eyes were not enough for a while, so he looked around and touched here and there.
However, his eyes were still clear, and he didn't feel greedy because of the scene in front of him, he was just curious.
Gu Lingyun stood on one side with his hands down, and said calmly, "Choose."
Mu Zhi turned around, and asked with some uncertainty: "These...can I choose all of them?"
Gu Lingyun nodded.
Mu Zhi got the permission, like a happy bird, he jumped into the treasure house full of gold and silver treasures.
But he was not greedy, he didn't touch the magic weapon cheats that outsiders flocked to, but picked the most worthless gems in the corner.
Seeing this, Gu Lingyun raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't say anything.
Mu Zhi squatted down to pick and choose, and picked up a water-blue gemstone.
The gemstone is the size of a fist, and as it rotates at an angle, dark blue, light blue, black blue... Various blues change, as if containing a vast ocean.
Mu Zhi was fascinated: "It's so beautiful!" He had never seen such a beautiful gem.
The things that Mu Zhi thinks are rare and precious are just rare and common things that can be seen everywhere in this treasure house.
But he still felt very happy, because it was given to him by the immortal.
In the cognition of birds, their collections are not allowed to be touched by others, and only important people or future partners can share them.
To judge others by oneself, since the Immortal Venerable allowed him to enter the warehouse to choose, he must be very concerned about him!
Mu Zhi put the sapphire in his arms, feeling sweet in his heart.He fantasized about adorning the bird's nest with gems and building the most beautiful and shining nest for the fairy.
Thinking of this, he lowered his head again, looking at the hill of gems piled up in front of him, hesitant.
But this amethyst is also beautiful.
And this green gem, never seen such a pure green in his collection.
Wait... There are even black gems!
Mu Zhi is like a little bear who strayed into a cornfield, always thinking that the next corn on the cob is the best.He couldn't make a decision for a while, and frowned in distress.
Xianzun didn't say how many gems he could take.
How about... to ask Immortal Venerable?
Mu Zhi reluctantly glanced at the gem on the ground, got up and walked out.
Gu Lingyun was standing in the stone forest outside, with the night wind blowing, his back was straight, like a sharp knife out of its sheath.
Mu Zhi took two steps closer, but before he could speak, he saw another figure descending from midair.
He looked up, and when he saw who was coming, he blurted out an exclamation, let go of his hand, and even dropped the sapphire in his arms to the ground.
"Bang" sounded.
The sapphire was spinning on the ground, and it just landed in front of the visitor.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the visitor stepped on the gem and smiled at Mu Zhi: "Long time no see, Xiao Mu Zhi."
Mu Zhi's face turned pale, as if his blood had been sucked away, and he couldn't speak a word.
Lu Shanyue laughed lightly, knowingly asked: "Why, are you so afraid of me?"
Mu Zhi took a step back.
Lu Shanyue didn't care, instead she let out a "huh", touched the sapphire on the ground with her toe, and asked, "Xiao Muzhi, did you drop it?"
Mu Zhi didn't want to talk to Lu Shanyue, and was reluctant to part with the sapphire. After thinking about it, he still replied: "Yes, yes...give it back to me."
Lu Shanyue wasn't in any trouble, and nodded, "Oh, it's yours. Then here you are—" He waved his hand, and a sapphire was entrained by a spiritual energy, heading towards Mu Zhi.
The gem came through the air, making a sharp cry.
Mu Zhi's eyes widened slightly, and the beautiful sapphire was clearly reflected in his eyes.
He knew very well that if he was hit, he would be hurt.
But his cultivation base was low, so he didn't have time to resist, so he could only freeze in place, waiting for the pain to come.
Just when the sapphire was about to fall, a cold reprimand sounded: "Enough."
The voice fell.
Sapphire's speed then slowed down, and after arriving in front of Mu Zhi, it stayed in midair for a moment, and then fell straight down.
Mu Zhi didn't have time to reach out to catch it, the sapphire fell to the ground, and with a "click", a gap like a spider's web opened.He froze for a moment, then bent down to pick up the sapphire.
It's just that the gem has been shattered and turned into a puddle of sea water, flowing from between his fingers, and he can't hold it anymore.
Mu Zhi stared blankly at the mess on the ground and didn't speak, but he was obviously wronged in his heart.
It was given to him by the immortal.
Before it could be decorated on the bird's nest, it was trampled to pieces.
Gu Lingyun's gaze lightly swept across Mu Zhi, and finally landed on Lu Shanyue, asking, "What are you doing here?"
In the secret realm, Lu Shanyue was not unscathed. These days, he has been recuperating in the other courtyard and has never taken a single step.
Lu Shanyue looked at Gu Lingyun with a gentle expression, a little nostalgia in his eyes, and said softly: "I haven't seen senior brother for a long time, I want to come and see."
Gu Lingyun put one hand behind his back, even when he heard the truth revealed, he still had a flat expression: "There's nothing to look at."
This sentence is equivalent to a guest order.
Lu Shanyue pretended not to understand, glanced at Mu Zhi, who was in a low mood, and then brought up another topic: "How can I remember that this ocean stone is my brother's private possession?"
The stone of the ocean refers to the sapphire that was broken just now.
Gu Lingyun gave a faint "hmm".
Lu Shanyue seemed to understand why Mu Zhi cared so much, her expression moved, and she joked: "Senior brother has a lot of treasures in his private treasury, and they are idle too, why don't you give me some. How about it?"
Gu Lingyun didn't care, just said: "It's up to you."
Lu Shanyue's brows and eyes widened, as clear as glass, she cupped her hands and said, "Then I'll thank senior brother first."
Mu Zhi heard the conversation between the two and raised his head.
It turns out that everyone can enter Xianzun's storeroom, can they share it at will?
Mu Zhi thought blankly: Actually, he is not special either.
The joy of just being born has not had time to share, and it has no interest.
Lu Shanyue went to the storeroom, and Mu Zhi followed behind with her head down, without looking at the gems again.
Instead, Lu Shanyue was picky: "Brother, what do you still keep these things for?"
Mu Zhi followed his gaze and looked over.
The "things" that Lu Shanyue mentioned were those precious gems that he hesitated just now.
Lu Shanyue said warmly: "These things take up too much space, why not throw them away."
Gu Lingyun has everything he can do.
These gems are huge and bright, but they don't contain a trace of aura, and it's useless to stay here. For a cultivator, they are equivalent to waste.
Mu Zhi's eyelashes trembled, and he mustered up his courage and said, "Xianzun, can you..." Give it to him.
But it was too late.
Before she finished speaking, she saw Lu Shanyue flicking her long sleeves, her aura vibrated slightly, and piles of gemstones turned into powder in an instant.
The finely divided powders swirled one after another, like fireworks blooming, fleeting.
Lu Shanyue rolled up her cuffs and asked gently: "Xiao Muzhi, what do you want to say?"
Mu Zhi didn't hear what Lu Shanyue said, he looked at the gem fragments all over the sky, and said in a daze, "No, it's nothing..."
These are the gems he wants.
In the eyes of others, it is indeed a waste that is discarded like a shoe.
Be it gems or something else.
It seems that he and Xianzun care about different things.
After realizing this, Mu Zhi's heart was stuffy, and he didn't want to stay with Lu Shanyue anymore, so he found an excuse and hurriedly fled this place.
Before they went far, the sound of Lu Shanyue and Gu Lingyun's conversation came from a distance in the wind.
Mu Zhi's footsteps slowed down.
He wanted to know what Lu Shanyue and Gu Lingyun said, so he hid behind the rocks and listened.
The moonlight flowed down, adding a chill out of thin air.
Gu Lingyun looked at the sky, and suddenly said: "You should go back."
He knew that Mu Zhi was afraid of Lu Shanyue, so he issued an order to evict him.
Lu Shanyue explained in a gentle voice, "Brother, I came out this time because I lost something."
Gu Lingyun put one hand behind his back: "What is it?"
Lu Shanyue spit out two words softly: "Xingshi."
Gu Lingyun frowned, his eyes were stern, as if to say: Can you lose this too?
Lu Shanyue's expression darkened, and her voice softened: "I don't know how I lost it..."
Lu Shanyue's body is weak, her soul is unstable, and she will faint from time to time. If her soul leaves her body for a long time, it will be harmful to her life.
In order to cure this disease of leaving the soul, Gu Lingyun specially went to visit the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, and brought a small piece of star stone from the bottom of the sea.
The star stone is something extraterrestrial, it looks like a gemstone, and its brilliance is like a star in the night sky.
This thing is extremely rare, once in a thousand years.
Lu Shanyue sighed: "I just didn't pay attention, and the star stone disappeared." He meant something, "I don't know who stole it."
Gu Lingyun thought for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, his spiritual consciousness surrounded the entire Changming Peak, and he said: "No outsider has entered or left Changming Peak today."
Lu Shanyue frowned delicately, and frowned: "Could it be that some ignorant disciple secretly took it away?"
Gu Lingyun asked back: "You never left a mark?"
Lu Shanyue came to a sudden: "Concerned about chaos, I forgot." His right hand was placed in front of his chest, blooming like a lotus flower, gathering a little bit of spiritual energy, turning into a butterfly flapping its wings, and flying away in all directions.
Before Lingdie returned, Lu Shanyue said softly: "If the disciples in the sect stole it without knowing it, I hope the senior brother will not be too harsh and show mercy."
Gu Lingyun's expression was cold, and he said coldly: "Stealing is 'stealing', and it is wrong. Just punish according to the sect's law."
His eyebrows and eyes were curved, and he hugged the crane's neck and kept telling his fantasy about the future. After sweeping away the gloom of the past few days, he seemed to have turned back into that carefree little bird.
But it's just a look.
Since some things have already happened, they are destined to leave some indelible traces, and they will never be able to return to the time when they were intact.
After suffering from a serious illness, Mu Zhi was no longer as energetic as before. Before finishing a sentence, he couldn't help but yawned a lot.
After beating, he pursed the corners of his lips in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Xianhe, I'm a little sleepy."
The crane turned its head, its black bean-like eyes were full of tolerance, it hugged Mu Zhi in its arms with its wings, and patted it gently.
Mu Zhi leaned against the crane's arms, a cluster of soft and fluffy feathers streaked across the tip of his nose, carrying the gentle breath of the sun.
Mu Zhi suddenly wanted to cry.
Since he came to Changming Peak, all the human beings he met disliked him, his kindness was fake, and his concern was also fake.
Only Uncle Xianhe would hug him and comfort him so tenderly.
Mu Zhi sucked the tip of his nose, and said in a muffled voice: "Uncle Xianhe, you are so kind." He said seriously, "It's a good thing that Uncle Xianhe is here, otherwise..."
Otherwise, he would really be hated by everyone if he thought it was his own problem.
Fortunately, Uncle Xianhe is his friend.
Sensing Mu Zhi's strangeness, Xian He lowered his head, gently rubbing his cheek as if treating his own child.Although it can't speak, its actions are enough to show everything.
Mu Zhi laughed through tears, completely relaxed.He pressed his cheek into the arms of the crane, and murmured in a low voice: "I'll sleep for a while, just for a while."
The sun shone on the other side of his cheek, like a faint golden light.
The crane didn't say anything, just moved its wings, and gently pulled the sleeping Mu Zhi into its arms.
At this time, Changming Peak was especially quiet, the breeze was blowing slowly, and only the leaves of sycamore trees were shaking around.
Everything looks so peaceful and beautiful.
Mu Zhi slept soundly this time, and didn't have any more nightmares.

He stared blankly at the scenery in front of him.
The sun is setting and the dusk is all together.
The orange light slanted down on Changming Peak, like a burning cloud.
For a moment, Mu Zhi thought he had really returned to Wutong Township.
It's just that the cold wind on the cliff brought him back to reality.
This is Changming Peak.
Mu Zhi felt a little cold suddenly, and couldn't stop shivering.
The crane's eyes showed concern.
Mu Zhi hugged his shoulders, his expression unavoidably downcast: "It's okay, I'm just a little homesick..." He calmed down and forced a smile, "But Changming Peak is also very good, there is Uncle Xianhe, There are Immortal Venerables, and the sycamore tree that was just planted."
He gestured: "When the plane tree grows a little longer, I can sleep on it."
The crane listened quietly and let out a low cry.
Mu Zhi blinked, and said freely, "It's really all right."
Xian He saw Mu Zhi's strong smile and wanted to make him happier, so he raised his head and pointed to the sky.
It wants to take Mu Zhi out for a stroll.
Mu Zhi was moved, but after hesitating for a moment, he still refused: "Forget it, I don't want to go out."
Xianzun asked him to stay in Changming Peak and not to go out if he had nothing to do.
Besides, he didn't want to go out either.There are so many bad guys out there, if you are not careful, you will be bullied.
Mu Zhi ignored the strange feeling in his heart, and changed the subject: "I'm going to see the bird's nest—"
He stood on tiptoe and looked up at the bird's nest on the plane tree.
The bird's nest is about to be built, and it is dotted with a magnificent gemstone. The light and shadow change, like a star falling into the world.
A bright streamer reflected in Mu Zhi's eyes.
He is about to become a Taoist couple with Xianzun.
He left Wutong Township and came to Changming Peak thousands of miles away. Isn't all this just to be with Xianzun?
This is the path he chose.
If you retreat now, isn't everything you did before meaningless?
It doesn't matter if you are hated by everyone.As long as you form a Taoist couple with Xianzun, everything will be fine.
Mu Zhi said to himself: "Everything will be fine." He turned his head, "Uncle Xianhe, do you think so?"
Crane nodded.
Mu Zhi bid farewell to Uncle Xianhe, and walked briskly back to the residence.

Satisfied with such an obedient little bird, Gu Lingyun touched the top of Mu Zhi's head and asked, "What do you want?"
Mu Zhi's eyes widened slightly: "What?"
Gu Lingyun said concisely: "The reward is for you."
Rewards and punishments are clear.
If you do something wrong, you will be punished; if you obey, you will be rewarded.
Mu Zhi grew up in Wutong Township since he was a child, as long as he has food and clothing, he is satisfied, and he doesn't have too many requirements for things outside his body.
He didn't want anything, and he was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, he tentatively said, "I want gems... shiny gems."

Mu Zhi put the sapphire in his arms, feeling sweet in his heart.He fantasized about adorning the bird's nest with gems and building the most beautiful and shining nest for the fairy.
Thinking of this, he lowered his head again, looking at the hill of gems piled up in front of him, hesitant.
But this amethyst is also beautiful.
And this green gem, never seen such a pure green in his collection.
Wait... There are even black gems!
Mu Zhi is like a little bear who strayed into a cornfield, always thinking that the next corn on the cob is the best.He couldn't make a decision for a while, and frowned in distress.
Xianzun didn't say how many gems he could take.
How about... to ask Immortal Venerable?
Mu Zhi reluctantly glanced at the gem on the ground, got up and walked out.
Gu Lingyun was standing in the stone forest outside, with the night wind blowing, his back was straight, like a sharp knife out of its sheath.
Mu Zhi took two steps closer, but before he could speak, he saw another figure descending from midair.
He looked up, and when he saw who was coming, he blurted out an exclamation, let go of his hand, and even dropped the sapphire in his arms to the ground.
"Bang" sounded.
The sapphire was spinning on the ground, and it just landed in front of the visitor.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the visitor stepped on the gem and smiled at Mu Zhi: "Long time no see, Xiao Mu Zhi."
Mu Zhi's face turned pale, as if his blood had been sucked away, and he couldn't speak a word.
Lu Shanyue laughed lightly, knowingly asked: "Why, are you so afraid of me?"
Mu Zhi took a step back.
Lu Shanyue didn't care, instead she let out a "huh", touched the sapphire on the ground with her toe, and asked, "Xiao Muzhi, did you drop it?"
Mu Zhi didn't want to talk to Lu Shanyue, and was reluctant to part with the sapphire. After thinking about it, he still replied: "Yes, yes...give it back to me."
Lu Shanyue wasn't in any trouble, and nodded, "Oh, it's yours. Then here you are—" He waved his hand, and a sapphire was entrained by a spiritual energy, heading towards Mu Zhi.
The gem came through the air, making a sharp cry.
Mu Zhi's eyes widened slightly, and the beautiful sapphire was clearly reflected in his eyes.
He knew very well that if he was hit, he would be hurt.
But his cultivation base was low, so he didn't have time to resist, so he could only freeze in place, waiting for the pain to come.
Just when the sapphire was about to fall, a cold reprimand sounded: "Enough."
The voice fell.
Sapphire's speed then slowed down, and after arriving in front of Mu Zhi, it stayed in midair for a moment, and then fell straight down.
Mu Zhi didn't have time to reach out to catch it, the sapphire fell to the ground, and with a "click", a gap like a spider's web opened.He froze for a moment, then bent down to pick up the sapphire.
It's just that the gem has been shattered and turned into a puddle of sea water, flowing from between his fingers, and he can't hold it anymore.
Mu Zhi stared blankly at the mess on the ground and didn't speak, but he was obviously wronged in his heart.
It was given to him by the immortal.
Before it could be decorated on the bird's nest, it was trampled to pieces.
Gu Lingyun's gaze lightly swept across Mu Zhi, and finally landed on Lu Shanyue, asking, "What are you doing here?"
In the secret realm, Lu Shanyue was not unscathed. These days, he has been recuperating in the other courtyard and has never taken a single step.
Lu Shanyue looked at Gu Lingyun with a gentle expression, a little nostalgia in his eyes, and said softly: "I haven't seen senior brother for a long time, I want to come and see."
Gu Lingyun put one hand behind his back, even when he heard the truth revealed, he still had a flat expression: "There's nothing to look at."
This sentence is equivalent to a guest order.
Lu Shanyue pretended not to understand, glanced at Mu Zhi, who was in a low mood, and then brought up another topic: "How can I remember that this ocean stone is my brother's private possession?"
The stone of the ocean refers to the sapphire that was broken just now.
Gu Lingyun gave a faint "hmm".
Lu Shanyue seemed to understand why Mu Zhi cared so much, her expression moved, and she joked: "Senior brother has a lot of treasures in his private treasury, and they are idle too, why don't you give me some. How about it?"
Gu Lingyun didn't care, just said: "It's up to you."
Lu Shanyue's brows and eyes widened, as clear as glass, she cupped her hands and said, "Then I'll thank senior brother first."
Mu Zhi heard the conversation between the two and raised his head.
It turns out that everyone can enter Xianzun's storeroom, can they share it at will?
Mu Zhi thought blankly: Actually, he is not special either.
The joy of just being born has not had time to share, and it has no interest.
Lu Shanyue went to the storeroom, and Mu Zhi followed behind with her head down, without looking at the gems again.
Instead, Lu Shanyue was picky: "Brother, what do you still keep these things for?"
Mu Zhi followed his gaze and looked over.
The "things" that Lu Shanyue mentioned were those precious gems that he hesitated just now.
Lu Shanyue said warmly: "These things take up too much space, why not throw them away."
Gu Lingyun has everything he can do.
These gems are huge and bright, but they don't contain a trace of aura, and it's useless to stay here. For a cultivator, they are equivalent to waste.
Mu Zhi's eyelashes trembled, and he mustered up his courage and said, "Xianzun, can you..." Give it to him.
But it was too late.
Before she finished speaking, she saw Lu Shanyue flicking her long sleeves, her aura vibrated slightly, and piles of gemstones turned into powder in an instant.
The finely divided powders swirled one after another, like fireworks blooming, fleeting.
Lu Shanyue rolled up her cuffs and asked gently: "Xiao Muzhi, what do you want to say?"
Mu Zhi didn't hear what Lu Shanyue said, he looked at the gem fragments all over the sky, and said in a daze, "No, it's nothing..."
These are the gems he wants.
In the eyes of others, it is indeed a waste that is discarded like a shoe.
Be it gems or something else.
It seems that he and Xianzun care about different things.
After realizing this, Mu Zhi's heart was stuffy, and he didn't want to stay with Lu Shanyue anymore, so he found an excuse and hurriedly fled this place.
Before they went far, the sound of Lu Shanyue and Gu Lingyun's conversation came from a distance in the wind.
Mu Zhi's footsteps slowed down.
He wanted to know what Lu Shanyue and Gu Lingyun said, so he hid behind the rocks and listened.
The moonlight flowed down, adding a chill out of thin air.
Gu Lingyun looked at the sky, and suddenly said: "You should go back."
He knew that Mu Zhi was afraid of Lu Shanyue, so he issued an order to evict him.
Lu Shanyue explained in a gentle voice, "Brother, I came out this time because I lost something."
Gu Lingyun put one hand behind his back: "What is it?"
Lu Shanyue spit out two words softly: "Xingshi."
Gu Lingyun frowned, his eyes were stern, as if to say: Can you lose this too?
Lu Shanyue's expression darkened, and her voice softened: "I don't know how I lost it..."
Lu Shanyue's body is weak, her soul is unstable, and she will faint from time to time. If her soul leaves her body for a long time, it will be harmful to her life.
In order to cure this disease of leaving the soul, Gu Lingyun specially went to visit the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, and brought a small piece of star stone from the bottom of the sea.
The star stone is something extraterrestrial, it looks like a gemstone, and its brilliance is like a star in the night sky.
This thing is extremely rare, once in a thousand years.
Lu Shanyue sighed: "I just didn't pay attention, and the star stone disappeared." He meant something, "I don't know who stole it."
Gu Lingyun thought for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, his spiritual consciousness surrounded the entire Changming Peak, and he said: "No outsider has entered or left Changming Peak today."
Lu Shanyue frowned delicately, and frowned: "Could it be that some ignorant disciple secretly took it away?"
Gu Lingyun asked back: "You never left a mark?"
Lu Shanyue came to a sudden: "Concerned about chaos, I forgot." His right hand was placed in front of his chest, blooming like a lotus flower, gathering a little bit of spiritual energy, turning into a butterfly flapping its wings, and flying away in all directions.
Before Lingdie returned, Lu Shanyue said softly: "If the disciples in the sect stole it without knowing it, I hope the senior brother will not be too harsh and show mercy."
Gu Lingyun's expression was cold, and he said coldly: "Stealing is 'stealing', and it is wrong. Just punish according to the sect's law."
