The protagonists have golden fingers

From Duan Feiqiu's point of view, Gu Zhuangcheng is very interesting.He is just a mortal, half a foot has just stepped into the cultivation period, he may not even learn how to gather Qi, but he is not afraid of gods.

But he behaved so harmlessly in front of Shen Yan, like a big cat carefully restraining its sharp claws and fangs, showing its soft belly docilely and obediently.

"If you continue to watch like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist killing God." Gu Zhuangcheng said without looking back as if he couldn't bear to look at him.

Duan Feiqiu chuckled and looked away.He knew that what Gu Zhuangcheng said was just a joke, but he didn't want to provoke a person who really had this ability, let alone this person whom he admired very much.

"What is the relationship between you and the owner of Yunzhuang Pavilion?"

Gu Zhuangcheng glanced at him, pursed the corners of his mouth and said nothing.

Duan Feiqiu became interested, and guessed: "Lover? Daoist couple? But it doesn't look like it... oh... I get it, you have a crush on him, right?"

Gu Zhuangcheng stopped angrily and said, "Would the gods gossip like this? Can't you keep your mouth shut?"

"No, if this problem is not solved, I will be suffocated to death!"

Duan Feiqiu snorted confidently, "Tell me, what's going on? Why do you care so much about him?"

Gu Zhuang deliberately knew that reasoning was unreasonable, so she simply agreed indiscriminately: "Didn't you say it? I have a crush on him. So, can you shut up and walk now?"

Duan Feiqiu: "..." Can you be more perfunctory?

Gu Zhuangcheng didn't look at his pretendingly aggrieved face, but raised his head to look around, his expression relaxed for a moment: "It's here."

"It's here? So soon?" Duan Feiqiu was taken aback, "I still have to go for several days!"

"Yangui Town is located near Qingming Mountain, otherwise Xie Qingming wouldn't have chosen to attack there." Gu Zhuangcheng pointed to the mountaintop surrounded by clouds and mist in front of him, and said, "Did you see it? That's Qingming Mountain .”

Qingming Mountain was originally just a bare hilltop where no grass grew and no birds laid eggs. It was only after Xie Qingming settled here that he gradually regained his vitality.

Today's Qingming Mountain is lush and verdant, even though the distance is not small, the spiritual power in the air is very abundant.

"It really is a treasure land!" Duan Feiqiu exclaimed, "I can't blame Xie Qingming for not wanting to go down the mountain. If it were me, I would rather live in seclusion and practice in the mountains!"

"It's not that no one has tried Qing Mingshan's idea before, but they were all defeated by Xie Qingming. As time passed, no one dared to provoke her anymore."

Gu Zhuangcheng didn't turn his head back, he seemed to be familiar with this place, not like it was his first time here.

Thoughts flashed across Duan Feiqiu's eyes, his expression became serious, and he followed Gu Zhuangcheng step by step.There are many doubts about this person, which makes him more and more curious.

After walking for another half an hour, the two arrived at the foot of the mountain.A puppet squatted at the door of the dilapidated inn, with an indelible sadness on his face.

Even though he knew it was not a living person, Duan Feiqiu was still shocked by the rich expression of the other party: "Wow... is this really a puppet and not a human?"

"Yeah. Xie Qingming's talent in thread drawing is the highest in the Xie family. Before the accident happened in the Xie family, the puppets made by Xie Qingming were hard to find."

Gu Zhuangcheng glanced at the puppet, it should be the waiter in Shen Yanmeng, he looked at it for a while, then walked up the mountain, "I don't know if you have heard of a doggerel——"Xie Jiabao Shu Siqing Ming, Dongyang Shizi Dian Fangping. Where are the real immortals in the world, pointing to the heavenly secret He Xiling."

Duan Feiqiu was at a loss.Should he have heard of it?It has been said that they know very little about mortal affairs, as long as it does not involve the life and death of mortals within their jurisdiction, generally speaking, they will not casually join the world.

Gu Zhuangcheng obviously just mentioned it casually, and didn't expect Duan Feiqiu to give any decent answer.

He pointed to a wooden bird in front - that wooden bird flew towards the top of the mountain when they entered the mountain, and now it came back again - "Look, this is probably Xie Qingming staying here on purpose to lead us into the mountain."

Duan Feiqiu said: "Then why is she doing this? She wants to hide from the world, but someone actually came and provoked him instead?"

"It's not you and me she wants to provoke, but Shen Yan." Gu Zhuangcheng said softly, staring at the wooden bird without blinking.

Unlike other exquisitely crafted puppets, this wooden bird is not even "rough", with an extraordinarily large head and very small wings.I don't know how it flew with this uncoordinated structure.

Gu Zhuangcheng thought about it, and felt that the bird might not have been made by Xie Qingming, but by Shen Yan.

That's right, when Xie Qingming brought Shen Yan to Qingming Mountain, he didn't show his true colors from the beginning, and wanted to make him a living puppet.

During that time, Shen Yan learned the silk drawing technique from Xie Qingming, and also made many puppets.

This wooden bird was presumably made during the first snowfall.

Gu Zhuangcheng raised his hand, and the bird flew down from the branch as if consciously, and landed on his finger.

Duan Feiqiu watched in amazement, and was about to say something when he saw the wooden bird's beak move.

Then, a voice came from the stomach: "The distinguished guest came to the door, and I have lost my way to welcome you, please forgive me."

Duan Feiqiu's eyes widened in shock, he pointed at the wooden bird and was speechless for a long time.Gu Zhuangcheng was indifferent, and said calmly: "It's okay, I will help you."

Wooden Bird tilted his head laboriously, as if his huge head was about to fall off in the next moment, it made people worried.

Fortunately, it is just a puppet after all. Although its limbs are extremely uncoordinated, but with the support of spiritual power, it will not die for a while.It flapped its short wings and flew tremblingly in one direction.

Seeing this, Gu Zhuangcheng grabbed Duan Feiqiu's arm and said in a low voice, "Follow!"

"Ah?" Duan Feiqiu was stunned for a moment, then staggered, "Hey, I said you—"

"Hush...don't talk." Gu Zhuangcheng lowered his voice, raised his chin slightly, and motioned him to look behind.

Duan Feiqiu turned his face away in doubt. The black mist that came from nowhere spread rapidly towards this side, swallowing everything around him. If they were one step late, they would probably be with this cloud of black mist.

"What the hell is this!" Duan Feiqiu was so frightened by the resentment in the black mist that his hairs stood on end, "What, what's going on here..."

"This is the grievance of the people who were made into puppets by Xie Qingming. They gather here for many years, and anyone who doesn't check will be entangled."

Gu Zhuangcheng dragged him to stumble behind the wooden bird, pushing away the obstructing branches from time to time.

"You mean, Xie Qingming's puppet is actually not wood or stone, but... it's..."

"In the very beginning, Xie Qingming did use wood and stones as bodies to make puppets. However, after all, wood and stones have no spirit, no matter how talented Xie Qingming is, he can't support the depletion of so many puppets' spiritual power. After a long time, She set her mind on the dead practitioner."

A cultivator who has stepped into the world of cultivating immortals with one foot may not have the spiritual power of a master cultivator, but he is already the best substitute compared to the wood and stone that can only be moved by relying on the master's spiritual power.

At first, Xie Qingming only focused on the dead practitioner.Although their bodies are dead, the spiritual power in their bodies has not dissipated for a while. It is precisely the most appropriate time to make them puppets.

However, there are many restrictions on the way of cultivating immortals, and there are not many practitioners for hundreds of years.

Xie Qing's idea of ​​using dead people as puppets is almost whimsical.After a long time, people outside began to discuss, mocking her overtly and secretly.

Even members of Xie's family hinted one after another that telling her not to think about it all day long is the right way to study the silk-drawing technique.

Xie Qingming has been sought after by others since he was a child, and has an arrogant temper, how could he stand up to such ridicule?Therefore, her eyes are not only on the dead.

Twenty years ago, the Xie family was wiped out overnight. Except for Xie Qingming who had gone out and never returned, almost no one was left in the Xie family!

Everyone thought that they were killed by their enemies, and they were all very sorry.But who would have thought that there are no so-called "enemies" at all, and there are only Xie Qingming, an orphan daughter of the Xie family who has gone mad?

After listening to Gu Zhuangcheng's words, Duan Feiqiu's whole god is gone!

He really didn't expect such a thing to happen to Xie Qingming. "But if what you said is true, after all these years, no one has sought revenge from her?"

"Revenge? Why revenge?" Gu Zhuangcheng sneered, "She is the only survivor of the Xie family, who would suspect her?"

Duan Feiqiu raised his eyebrows, thinking that this is not necessarily the case, don't you just suspect her?

Gu Zhuangcheng said again: "I don't count!"

Duan Feiqiu: "..."

Oh……

The two of them followed the wooden bird and walked quickly, they got out of which bushes they didn't know, and finally got rid of the black mist behind them.

The black mist formed by the condensed grievances of countless people gradually dissipated, and the woods behind them were still full of vitality.

Not far forward, an exquisite palace rose from the ground.Surprisingly, there are pavilions and water in this palace, which is quite decent.

For Duan Feiqiu, who is used to living in palaces, this is just an ordinary small place, not worth mentioning.

Gu Zhuangcheng was quite surprised, and stroked his chin thoughtfully: "It seems that this palace was only built in recent years."

"Why do you care so much about him? Where is Xie Qingming? Does he just live here?" Duan Feiqiu arrived at the destination, his eyes flicked fiercely.

Gu Zhuangcheng nodded: "You should—hey, don't be impulsive! Now that Xie Qingming hasn't shown up yet, you rush in so hastily, do you want to be made into a puppet?"

"Joke! I am the patron saint of Yangui Town, can she make a puppet? Who do you look down on?" Duan Feiqiu raised her head proudly.

Gu Zhuangcheng nodded expressionlessly, and said: "Yes, I don't know who was deceived by Xie Qingming and almost destroyed the Yangui Town that he guarded."

"you!"

Just when the two were at a stalemate, a graceful figure walked out of the hall.The man was wearing a red dress, his white hair was pulled into a simple bun, and his face was covered with delicate makeup.

She Shi Shiran walked up to the two of them, blessed Fushen with a smile, and said: "Your guest is here, I am very polite."

"Don't dare. Junior Gu Zhuangcheng, I have met Senior Xie."

It wasn't until this moment that Gu Zhuangcheng truly realized the strength of the person in front of him.The coercion on her body is unmatched by Duan Feiqiu!And she is the Xie family treasure tree, Xie Qingming, who has been admired for decades.
