Jian Zun, your sword spirit is the villain!

There is a big toon forest ten li outside Quzhou.

The Dachun forest has not regenerated green shoots for many years, but it is a dead wood forest.

But Quzhou people respect and love this big Chun Lin.

In front of the dry forest, there are stone tablets with inscriptions, inscribed with the origin of the ten miles of dry forest.

A hundred years ago, there was a heavy rain that lasted for nearly a month. It was like a big hole in the sky. The river outside the six cities on the border of Quzhou collapsed, flooding the sky, and the people were unable to evacuate in time.

At the critical moment, a female cultivator with spiritual roots stepped forward, and she didn't know what kind of secret method she used, so she used her body as a forest to build a long embankment of trees.

The ever-growing wood spirits are like a barrier, blocking the raging flood and winning a glimmer of life for the people in the city.

Cultivator Mu Linggen died in martyrdom. The flowers and trees in the city rustled in the wind that day, as if sending off an old friend.

After the water receded, the originally lush green leaves withered into the mud, and the spiritual energy dissipated in an instant, and dried up in an instant.

In the next spring, there will be no more green onions.

For the rest of Quzhou's life after the catastrophe, since then, the people in the border city have regarded the toon forest as their guardian deity, and also regarded the toon tree as a blessing tree. The patterns on clothes, the carvings on jewelry, and even the drawings on children's paper kites are everywhere. Visible toon leaf style.

Every year during Qingming or Winter Solstice, people in the city come to this forest to worship and pray for blessings, and then take a rest in the shade of the trees. wish.

Often after a day, the dry branches will be covered with plain ribbons, like a fringe of white flowers hanging down, fluttering gracefully in the wind.

Looking from a distance, there is no desolation and bitterness, but a bit of solemnity and solemnity.

Together with the legend of the Toon Forest, there is a white-haired monk in the Toon Forest.

The monk doesn't often show up in front of people, and she can only be found in the winter solstice when the snow is approaching, or the Qingming when the spring is coming.

White jacket and plain clothes, light silk on the temples, bright and beautiful.

Sometimes she practiced a pair of Emei thorns in the open space of the forest, and the cold light flashed across the branches without hurting a dead branch. More often, she carried a flower hoe and a jar of clean water to water the dry forest.

Few people have seen her lying on a tree and drinking, drinking heavily under the moon, like a ray of spirit melted from the soul of osmanthus.

But she is not some good fortune spirit.

She is a forest ranger.

Chu Lanyin took the way to Quzhou.

Half of their four-step plan has been completed, and the next time they enter the pit will not be delayed, and it will be the evening of the next day.

They carefully inquired about the recent changes in the wind direction along the way, and found out a lot of news.

Based on the white jade pendant taken out by Gu Shengyang, the sword spirit analyzed the special interweaving method of its spiritual lines. Although the origin of the strange spiritual energy is still unknown, since there is a chance, he will also supply some magic tools to improve it. Imitate the white jade pendant, so that the magic weapon can be used even in obstacles.

Chunmu Forest is outside Quzhou City, Chu Lan let the puppet and Li Pu'er wait in front of the forest for a while, so she floated to the city first.

The spirit body came and went very quickly, and he returned within less than a stick of incense, with an extra wine jar in his hand.

Seeing that the jar was dusty, Li Pu'er sealed his mouth, but he didn't know what was in it, and felt a little chilly.

Chu Lanyin glanced at him appreciatively, and said, "It's the water from the Styx River, take a sip?"

Li Pu'er's eyes widened, and he shook his head hurriedly like a rattle.

He wondered again: "Elder Chu, is the water of the Styx river safe in the mortal world?"

He remembered the records in the book that things from the underworld should not easily appear in the mortal world, just like ghost officials in the underworld seldom let the creatures in the world bump into them when performing the task of chasing souls.

"A small amount is fine. Put it in a place with strong yang energy, and it can be used as ice cubes in summer."

Chu Lanyin shook the jar in her hand, raised her spirits, and talked about the novel knowledge just now, saying: "I left this in an academy in the city, and when I asked for it, it was the great-grandson of the old mountain head , the spiritual thread is woven so round that it doesn't slip away, and when I asked the people around me, I found out that he is really round and fat, just like his great-grandfather, it really shocked me."

The sword spirit fluttered in a hurry, and his temple hair was a little disheveled. Cang Shan approached a few minutes, and raised his hand to straighten the long hairpin in his hair.

The hairpin was no longer the silk-wrapped honeysuckle silver hairpin from before, but a jade hairpin, the quality of the jade was rather rough, and the head of the hairpin was carved with unattractive toon wood branches.

The wooden puppet pursed its lips and said slowly: "Where did it come from?"

Chu Lanyin said: "This? It was given to me by the students of the academy. After so many years, it is still the same virtue."

He blinked, leaned closer to Cangshan, and almost pressed it against his ear: "I understand now, Qingqing Zijin, care about my heart, it's really frivolous, yearning for Shaoai, if you don't accept it, you will become popular Such a big face, so fun."

Cangshan's two fingers were still clamped on the edge of the hairpin, and he was about to withdraw his hand, but after hearing what he said, his fingertips stuck to it again.

He let out a "huh" and said, "This hairpin is a bit worn out, can I repair it?"

Chu Lan narrowed her eyes narrowly, and also raised her hand to grab Cang Shan's wrist, looking from bottom to top.

It can be seen that the wooden puppet's face was calm at first, but after being stared at for a long time, there was a vague look of being punctured.

Especially at the base of the ear, the spiritual thread was dyed red, stretched tight, and trembling.

Sword Spirit seems to pay special attention to the subtle changes in his spirit line today.After a while, Chu Lanyin slowed down and said in a low voice: "I'm lying to you, I bought this at the gate of the city, two copper coins, how about it, does it look like your real body?"

"Pfft." Li Pu'er beside him couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, he shook his shoulders and turned his back, and began to reflect on why he felt as happy as eating candy.

"Are you still practicing?" Chu Lanyin let go of his wrist.

Cangshan let out another "huh" and said in silence for a moment, "It's okay if you look at it this way, I'll grind it down directly."

Grinding is just a matter of a few breaths, Chu Lanyin pursed her lips and smiled, watching the light red spread all the way down, she wondered why she didn't realize that the wooden puppet's body would have such a big reaction before.

The turmoil of the hairpin passed, and the sword spirit led them to the Chunmu forest.

Chunlin is directly opposite to the gate of Quzhou City. After walking for a while, you can see the stele. There are many inscriptions on the stele. Not only Chunlin passed by, but also another poem is engraved on it.

Approaching the stele, Li Pu'er read the poem in a low voice.

He didn't know why such a chivalrous five-word poem was engraved here, but he saw that the engraved iron and silver hooks seemed to be chiseled into the depths of his heart.

Chu Lanyin stood in front of the forest.

He was not polite, let go of his voice, and shouted: "Feng girl, come out to drink!"

Faint mist gathered in the toon tree forest, the magic circle fluctuated, and the icy air filled the air.

They vaguely saw a wooden house deep in the forest, and a monk was walking slowly on the bluestone road in front of the house.

The monk is tall and tall, with white hair like snow, and a calm and peaceful breath, but his face is like ice and snow, cold and alienated, it seems that he is not easy to get along with.

Her steps are very light, almost silent, she must have a very clever lightness technique.

Li Pu'er couldn't even see how she walked in front of them.

The monk in plain clothes came to the eyes of the three of them, flicked his sleeves and folded his sleeves to salute, and said, "Elder Chu."

Chu Lanyin shook the jar of yellow spring water in her hand at her, and said with a smile: "I didn't bring any wine today, and after the second girl wakes up, send her to buy it for us."

As soon as the voice fell, a gust of wind blew through the forest.

The dead branches seem to have drawn a few ink marks on the horizon, leaving a large freehand blank space.

Cultivator Feng Wanbing's thick long eyelashes trembled.

She seemed to have not recovered from the sword spirit's words, she blinked her eyes very slowly, her eyelashes were like heavy gray clouds, finally unable to carry the overflowing water vapor, they condensed into beads in an instant, and pulled again When she fell off the line, she fell down uncontrollably, wet her pale face.

Shouting and bouncing without joy, it seemed that her great joy and sorrow had disappeared in these long years.

The crying came silently, but it was filled with endless grief.

And Cangshan already knew the intention of Sword Spirit.

The wood spirit vines wandered around Taihui, in addition to the necessary arrangements, they also inquired a lot about the past of the people around the sword spirit.

After his death, Jian Ling was more of a solitary person, traveling around Taihui for a few years, and then returned to Xishan to live in seclusion, with people coming and going around him, not always.

But in this place where people come and go, the woman transformed by the second big chun tree is really of great significance to Chu Lanyin.

The way Jianling treated her was really like an old father who came late for a girl, she was so spoiled, I don't know what Jianling asked the second wooden puppet to do, anyway, the rest of the time I heard a lot about the woman surnamed Chu The legend of wandering in the rivers and lakes, happy grievances and enmity, a short poem is chanted happily, and it is so chic to be a chivalrous hero.

But I also heard that around the annual reunion festival, the heroine in red may be seen returning from a long distance, carrying wine to the Xishan Mountain of Ling Huazong. Others only rumored that she had an old friend here, but they didn't know that it was to visit the sword that was closed behind closed doors. spirit.

But she didn't stay with Sword Spirit for too long.

How did the sword spirit feel when he stepped out of Xishan Mountain and came to Quzhou, and saw this dead forest?

In fact, Chu Lanyin herself didn't understand.

Probably because he was proud of his daughter's promising future, but at the same time hated her for leaving so easily, as expected of his always willful and reckless second girl.

The companion and friend of the heroine in red begged the sword spirit, but Chu Lanyin couldn't help her.

But seeing the whiteness of Feng Wanbing's long hair after the heavy snowfall, Jianling asked her if she would wait.

— Waiting for a tiny miracle.

Feng Wanbing's talent is extremely high, with icy bones and frosty bones, she is most suitable for the ruthless way. She is only half a step away from entering the ruthless way, and the ruthless way has all emotions and six desires. How can her friends in the past take it to heart? It is different from wasting years and wasting talents.

But in fact, what a waste.

Ever since she followed Miss Chu into the rivers and lakes, she has thrown the so-called ruthless way into the desolate wilderness.

The second girl died for the common people, she did not enter reincarnation but she had meritorious deeds, Taihui has always settled karma with one stroke, since she fought for a chance for the people in the city, maybe she will leave a chance for her to survive.

They are waiting for the five elements to awaken their souls.

The great array of heaven, earth and five elements, and the yellow spring water that is enshrined in the human academy, I don’t know when and what opportunity can wash away the yin energy and leave the essence of the yellow spring; a phoenix feather of the blood of the heavenly way will be burned to produce a pure and innocent Lili fire; The toon tree forest where the people entrust the long-cherished wishes of the people, the lingering year after year of wishes and obsessions;

Plus... Add another piece of Jiutianyou, the most yin gold in the world, open the five-element formation, and attract scattered souls.

Sword Spirit knows formation very well.

But Cangshan remembered what Lan Yin had said before but hesitated.

He wants to trim a tassel.

Now he knew which one it was.

When the swordsmith Chu Jiu forged the Lan Yin sword, he added an extra piece of Jiutianyou, which should have been fused with the flint to make the scabbard of the Lan Yin sword.

Taihui sword spirits all have scabbards. When they return to their original bodies, they can recuperate in the sheaths to cultivate their spirit bodies and stabilize the operation of their spiritual power. They can even be closed to change their appearance.

Lan Yin sword has no sheath.

His body shape was fixed at the moment of transformation, and there was no place for him to exclusively raise his spirit.

But he has a rough stone of Jiutianyou.

As we all know, the more powerful a weapon is, the harder it is to find something to repair it once it is damaged, because the raw materials are hard to find, and there are fewer substitutes.

If there is a spare rough stone, it is equivalent to the second life of the weapon when it is in danger.

Sword Spirit was so precious back then that piece of Nine Heavens You would not give it to anyone who wanted to see it, so he secretly let Xie Cangshan see it once, and said it was his sword tassel, but in fact it was a sword tassel, but it was tied on a stone Just a red ribbon.

Only later, this precious Jiansui passed through Xie Cangshan's hands again, the red string was kept, but a concentric knot and a handful of long tassels were added.

The Jiutianyou was surrounded by hollowed-out silver wires, and its shape was exquisite yet majestic, not inferior to the priceless sword tassel style outside.

Even Baichuan Jianling, who is proficient in this way, was amazed when he saw it.

But before seeing the design clearly, Chu Lanyin put it in the front of her front and refused to show it anymore.

Cangshan was lost in thought, Chu Lanyin stretched out her hand and shook in front of him, saying: "Come back to your senses, help me draw a circle."

"Suizi." Cang Shan said softly, "I can repair it."

Sword Spirit's eyes seemed to be stained with the misty mist unique to the suburbs of Quzhou. He shook his head and said, "When I took Jiutianyou, the Yin Qi had already smashed the whole sword tassel, so it can't be repaired."

But he narrowed his eyes and smiled again, "You might as well call me another one."

"Okay." Cang Shan replied in a deep voice.

Satisfied, the sword spirit went to prepare the Five Elements Formation.

Feng Wanbing cooperated in an orderly manner. When everything was ready, she stepped aside and built a tall spiritual screen wall with ice spirits. Because Chu Lan was in the formation, she channeled her spiritual power, and the five elements transformed into spirits coiled around her body.

A strong wind suddenly blew up in the formation, full of spiritual atmosphere, and colorful brilliance.

I saw that the heaven and earth in the dead wood forest became a piece of unborn precious jade, the dark branches collided densely, and the wind was filled with awe-inspiring spirit, turbulent back and forth, endlessly.

Feng Wanbing's palms were sweating, she clenched her fists tightly, and there was a "dong dong" sound in her ears.

She didn't know where the sound came from, until she raised her hand to press her chest, she knew it was a dull sound coming from her heart, and the mass of flesh and blood was hammered hard one after another, as if it had really come to life.

The second toon tree branch, she has already obtained the qualification for reincarnation, but she gave up the opportunity of being a human being and chose to disperse her spirit here. The merit of saving a city of people won her this opportunity.

But waiting for a hundred years is so long, and the passing time is unstoppable, but now when I read it again, it suddenly seems to be just a moment.

The figure of the female cultivator in red appeared in the formation, blurred several times, and solidified several times.

Because Chu Lan was floating in the air, she took out Jiutianyou.

A palm-sized black stone was sent into the shadowy figure that was also floating.

The gold is solid, and the thin figure gradually has a clear outline.

Chu Lu slowly opened his eyes.

After the bewildered expression dissipated, she still didn't know where she was, and she faced Chu Lanyin in a daze, and said, "Yeah? Why are you here?"

"Your father is here to get you." Chu Lanyin joked, and said again: "Second girl, welcome home."

The breeze blows across the south bank of the river, and the vegetation is fragrant, lingering.

Ten miles of dry forest, rejuvenation in an instant.

The Five Elements Formation unraveled itself, Cangshan stepped forward to catch the sword spirit, and Feng Wanbing caught Chu Lv who fell asleep again.

Due to the severe exhaustion of spiritual power, Chu Lan simply lazily lay in Cangshan's arms. He half-closed his eyes and said to Feng Wanbing: "Take her back to raise her, and she will wake up in a few days. I don't know how far she can be raised." Yes, but this is considered a forbidden technique, I tried to use it before but failed, this is the first time."

The sword spirit was drowsy, but he still didn't forget to say: "I'm afraid you can't force it in terms of cultivation, you are half-fit now, do you have a plan?"

Feng Wanbing's cheek was pressed against Chu Lv's forehead, and he nodded heavily, as if everything was silent.

Chu Lanyin thought for a while, changed a comfortable position in Cangshan's arms, and said casually: "I didn't name her back then, she wanted to decide on her own, but she couldn't always decide. Today's name is good, and tomorrow's name is good." Good words, when you met her, she coaxed you to pay attention to the hero not leaving his name, but she didn't even think about it at all, she told me all these things in Xishan."

After a pause, he said: "But the word 'Law' was settled after one year of your partnership."

He clicked to the end, pulled La Cangshan's sleeve, and said: "Let's go, I'm sleepy, I'm going to find a place to rest in the city, I'll be busy tomorrow."

"Elder Chu—"

Feng Wanbing is used to being reticent. She hasn't talked to anyone for many years, and she doesn't know where to start.He wanted to ask them to stay for a few more days, but just as the words of gratitude came to his lips, Chu Lanyin waved back and said loudly, "Goodbye Jianghu, you two knights!"

This trip came and went quickly, and Li Pu'er was still a little confused.

He looked at Elder Chu nestled in the wooden puppet's arms, and was even more confused.

Cang Shan said, "Lan Yin's poems have been learned very well recently."

Chu Lan was triumphant, and with a smile on her lips, she replied, "That's right, I haven't missed a day."

"Hey?" Li Pu'er asked suspiciously, "What poem?"

The two of them were playing charades at each other, Chu Lan was so sleepy, but she was still talking to Cangshan with her eyes closed, her forehead resting on the wooden puppet's chest, and said softly: "I told Feng Wanbing back then that the Great Formation of the Five Elements was successfully opened. It may be almost negligible, and waiting for many years is probably like fetching water from a bamboo basket, nothing more."

At that time, Feng Wanbing's master was also there, and the words were even harsher, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, there is no big mistake.

Chu Lu is just a person she met by chance during the long journey of her practice, and she will never forget it now, but she has not seen the length of time.

And Jian Ling didn't deliberately talk about it seriously, and he didn't study this big formation back then, nor did it happen on a whim.

The sword spirit also waited for a jar of yellow spring water, and Jiutianyou's sword tassel had been twisted into fine pieces earlier, but it failed in the end.

He had heard that fetching water from a bamboo basket was in vain, but he regarded it as a folk saying, and he once laughed at how stupid this person was when Xie Cangshan taught him the meaning of it.

Bamboo baskets are full of holes, how could they hit the water.

And water is a ruthless thing, just like every year, even if the persistent basket holder is stubborn, he should not be moved at all.

Because Chu Lan was immersed in the abundant and warm wood spirit power of the wooden puppet, Cangshan's steps were still very steady. He could not feel the slightest jolt, and the harsh winter wind in the countryside could not hurt him, but the bell on his wrist was still because of the Because of the suspension, it was ringing softly.

The weak sword spirit relaxed the spiritual threads of his whole body, and his eyelids covered the pupils that had turned completely frosty white.

But his heart was very joyful, as if he really had a heart, and the joyful emotions filled up from a deep place, almost submerging his chest.

At the same time, he also sensed the collapse of the so-called temporary military master contract.

In fact, there is no such thing as a "temporary soldier's deed" at all. If he can really come up with such a thing, all the soldiers in the world will block the gates of his mountain.

That is a real military master contract.

Just because of the spar that Xie Cangshan let him swallow back then, he can choose which side to lead the initiative of this deed, just like Tu Xiaochuang gave the deed to Sha Hongchen, and the method of unraveling the deed is in the hands of the sword spirit hand.

This is the truth that every sword spirit understands, but it is kept secret, and the military master will not talk about it unless he mentions it, because this kind of inversion is really an offense to the arrogant military master.

Sword spirits have too many tacit secrets.

That is hidden behind the spiritual thread, something that even the Dao of Heaven cannot understand.

Inspired by the spirit thread in the barrier and the Karma Qin, Chu Lan saw the internal condition of the wooden puppet through the way of signing a contract.

Inside the wooden puppet that was used to cover it up, the broken spiritual threads that were kept alive by the white light were fragments of Xie Cangshan's soul.

Xie Cangshan always has his own weird methods.

Lan Yinjian closed his eyes and buried his face in the wooden puppet's arms.

The Five Elements Formation cannot summon tens of thousands of soul pieces. The records about Xie Cangshan in the underworld's catalog are a stack of blank books without words. around.

It turned out to be true.

Chu Lan untied the military master's contract, and the contract seemed to be peeled off naturally between them.

Cangshan's breath tensed, he tightened his arms, lowered his head and asked softly if the sword spirit was feeling well.

Chu Lanyin shook her head, but tightly clutching one of the other's sleeves, she was thinking about her future plans.

——Xie Cangshan probably couldn't imagine that I'm already very calculating.

After Chu Lan finished her calculation, she was still a little happy in her heart.

But this joy is different from the joy that Chu Lv felt when he was resurrected just now.

But it's all about being happy, and the sword spirit doesn't make any distinctions.

Seeing that he was silent, Cangshan seemed to have fallen asleep.

But after a long while, Chu Lanyin said: "Will the second girl be sad before she becomes a twig tree? Will the first big twig be sad before I block the real fire?"

Xie Cangshan thought for a while, the forced data login in the mountain surrounded by fire has passed for too long.

Li Pu'er still didn't understand the last question, scratched his head and said, "What poem?"

Chu Lanyin just asked casually, without waiting for Cangshan's answer, she just said: "Tell him quickly, otherwise this melon boy will not be able to calm down."

Cangshan said: "There is less frost in the late years of the law, and the vegetation in the world is known in spring."

Chu Lanyin continued: "I feel that the business in front of me is full, and the east wind blows the water and green -*"

The wind on the outskirts of Quzhou was getting colder, Chu Lanyin let go of the second girl's thoughts, leaned in the warmth of her familiar arms, and closed her eyes amidst the sonorous heartbeat beside her ears, and started this short-lived scene. And sleep without dreams.

The author has something to say:

*There is little ice and frost at the end of the year, and the vegetation in the world is known in spring.I feel that the business in front of me is full, and the east wind blows the water and green.Zhang Shi's "The Occasion of Beginning of Spring"

--------------

The specific relationship between the two heroines can be understood by yourself. The sword spirits said that Cangshan is too "spiritual" because in fact, the big toon wood puppet is worse than the sword spirit in some aspects, and Chu Lu is Chu Lanyin. If a child is raised, like a father, like a daughter (?), many things follow the feeling.

Feng Wanbing stepped into the Ruthless Dao with half a foot, she looked delicate and introverted, but she didn't think about such complicated issues, but to Bing Linggen, Chu Lv was like a fire on her ten thousand li ice field, a clump of green , so she waited as long as she wanted, there were not so many reasons, the old lady was happy to ask.

It's New Year's Eve, I'm tired of two chapters~
