Xianzun, your spirit bird is gone
Chapter 23 Wu Peng Lake
Dianxing Town is the most prosperous town with a radius of dozens of miles. It is backed by Wupeng Lake, with a view of spring mountains, beautiful fish and beautiful water.
"Selling lotus pods! Fresh lotus pods, three pennies, guaranteed to be the sweetest in a radius of ten miles. Children will be smart and not sick if they eat them, and adults will be healthy and lucky if they eat them!"
"The freshly baked lotus seed cake is fragrant and not greasy, it melts in the mouth, and it tastes even better when it's hot!"
"Lotus crisps, lotus cakes! The palace's secret recipe for lotus cakes! The emperor's ladies in the palace love it the most, and the immortals of Penglai Mountain and Lushan Mountain also like it. Come and try it!"
......
The streets are bustling with crowds, shoulder to shoulder, but the things that seem to be sold are obviously more food than other things.It was originally called Dim Sum Town, and it is said that there were a few master masters in the palace selected from this town. The people in the town are also proud of their craftsmanship, and their reputation has attracted a large number of businessmen to come and visit. Appreciating delicacies, even some disciples from other immortal sects occasionally pass by to buy one or two, so the head of the pavilion, with the ink in his belly, changed the name to a slightly immortal mountain-Dianxing Town.
The day approaching July is a good time to enjoy the lotus picking lotus and pan the lake, but this time the tourists flocking to the town include not only literati and poets who come here admiringly, passing business travelers, but also some Jianghu people with swords, and A disciple of the fairy sect with fluttering fairy robes and a sword coming and going.
It only provoked more and more people who came here curiously, and the business seemed to be getting better.
"Two lotus pods, thank you." Qing Jun's voice was polite and gentle, and Shi Xueshu, who was dressed in white and gray-haired, spread out his palm, and there were three copper coins in it.
The peddler selling lotus pods by the arch bridge was stunned, a sense of coolness enveloped his whole body, dispelling the scorching heat of the scorching summer, he looked up and saw a man dressed in white, even his eyes were covered with a white damask, he was so startled that he almost sat down to the ground.
"Ah, fairy, fairy..."
He was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment. Even though the person in front of him had almost white hair and was blindfolded, he was still breath-takingly beautiful, gentle and polite, and the white Taoist robe on his body was full of immortality. know how to call it.
A Taoist from Xianmen came to my place to buy lotus pods!
A Taoist from Xianmen came to my place to buy lotus pods!
"Two lotus pods, three wen, right?" Shi Xueshu stretched out her hand to support the peddler's arm to prevent him from falling, "Be careful, there is a river behind."
"Ah, yes, yes." The peddler thanked again and again, "Thank you, thank you Daoist. This, this is the lotus."
The peddler picked out the two largest lotus pods from a basket, and handed them to Shi Xueshu with both hands, his eyes glowing: "Master Dao, you don't need to pay, you can come to me today to buy lotus pods, which is enough for me to blow them for a year! "
Shi Xueshu didn't pick up the lotus pod, but turned sideways and pointed backwards: "Then they don't need to pay you to buy it from you?"
The peddler was taken aback for a moment, followed Shi Xueshu's hand to look over, and immediately gasped.
On the street not far away, among the bustling crowd, there are many men and women wearing traditional Taoist robes, with high hair crowns, extraordinary manners, dignified faces and unwavering eyes, obviously they are all from the fairy sect!
It's strange, I haven't seen a single person for several years, how come there are so many people today!
But he had already said it, and it was hard to take it back, so he still raised his head and smiled: "Master Daoist, this... huh, where's the person?"
The previous person had disappeared unknowingly, he looked down and saw that the lotus pods in his hand were still there, only three pennies more, as if two of the smaller lotus pods in the other frame had been taken away.
What a strange Taoist, big ones don't want small ones.
He put away the money, sat on the small bench and continued to yell: "Sell lotus pods, sell lotus pods, three pennies for two..."
It seemed that he was a little absent-minded, and the ice-like face of that Taoist was still in his mind.
It's really beautiful.
"It's just that the brain is not working." A clear young voice came from in front of him, with a teasing smile, "I made you laugh."
The peddler raised his head, but before he could see the person clearly, a fiery red flashed in front of him, and the two big lotus pods in his hand disappeared, replaced by three copper coins.
The boy's voice seemed to be heard in the distance: "Wait for me to taste it, I will buy it when it is sweet!"
Holding two lotus pods with long green stems in her hands, Shi Xueshu stood beside Wupeng Lake.
The deep bottom of the lotus pond that can't be seen at a glance is the end of today.
When it comes to Moxiu, most people will think of dark and gloomy mountain canyons, or ditch rat holes that can't see the sun, but in fact, the head of Moxiu—that is, the Mozun Luansi they call The strongholds are set up in three places near the water.
Wupeng Lake, Taohuawu, Spring Lake.
These are places with excellent scenery, spring-like seasons and a lot of people.
Therefore, when Shi Xueshu followed the clues to find Wupeng Lake for the first time a long time ago, he doubted whether there was a gathering place of demons here. After all, from the surface, there was not even a trace of demonic energy here.
Just follow the lake water into the lotus, pass through the layers of lotus leaves, the crowds and towns are far behind, they will jump into the water at a certain point, find the vortex enchantment in the depths of the silt, after breaking through it, once again When you surface, you will come to the first stronghold of the demons - the Lotus Bone Palace.
It is also on the bank of a large lotus pond. The difference from Wupeng Lake is that there are palaces built of dense white bones on the bank, exposed to the gloomy sunlight, glowing with little blue light and exuding a strong demonic aura.
It was as if after the world had been turned upside down, the lotus that was supposed to emerge from the silt and clear ripples became an evil ghost here. The screams in the palace were mostly monks who were trapped here and could not get out, and ordinary people who were persecuted to absorb blood and practice kung fu. , spirit beasts that inhaled too much magic energy and turned them into demons, and a group of crazy demon cultivators who fanatically believed in Luan Si.
At that time, Shi Xueshu brought Man Yuxing and a dozen or so disciples into this place, and the mud all over his body tightly wrapped them around them like ropes, and Si cut off the mud of these mortals from the sheath, and broke through the entrance of the hall. Moxiu rushed into the palace and rescued the dying master who had been trapped for more than 70 days.
He hugged his master tightly. It was the first time he was so close to his master since he learned of his extremely cold physique, but it was also the last time, and this time, his master held his hand in front of him and Man Yuxing. The door token was passed to him.
"You have to be good and protect the younger brother." The master's hair was tortured to gray, there was no good flesh on his body, and his arms were cut off, so Shi Xueshu could only instruct Shi Xueshu to take out the master's token from the ring hidden under his tongue, "Xiu Bai, take your Si Cong sword and protect everyone who should be protected. Let's go."
With tears in their eyes, the two of them restrained the master's bones, swept the entire lotus bone palace, and killed almost all the demon cultivators. Man Yuxing's eyes were blood red, wishing to uproot this place, and Shi Xueshu didn't stop dissuading him at all. Run deeper into the palace.
Shi Xueshu, who gritted her teeth and chased after her, lost her way without accident, and the ecstasy array made them fall into Luan Si's trap. Sure enough, those demon cultivators who could be easily killed outside, and the master who died in a miserable state were all bait. It is the bait to lure them deep into the palace!
When he seemed to be the only one left in the entire palace, and he couldn't get out no matter what, batch after batch of powerful monsters and monsters continued to emerge from all directions, from yellow-level, mysterious-level, and earth-level monsters—up to those of the sky-level monsters. Appeared, forcing him into a dead end tomb.
Although there is only one word difference between monsters and spirit beasts, monsters of the same level are several times more powerful than spirit beasts.At that time, Shi Xueshu, who had not yet reached the level of Mahayana, hid in the tomb with difficulty, and sealed the door of the tomb with blood to resist the attack of monsters.
At the same time, he saw the black-clothed boy in the tomb whose throat was pierced by a bone demon with one hand.
The boy was thin, and his black clothes were soaked in blood, and he couldn't see other colors. Only the large drops of blood gushing out from his porcelain-white face made him look pitiful and terrifying.
The moment he looked over in surprise, the boy's black eyes suddenly turned, and the colorless eyes as thick as the night sky seemed to be dyed with a layer of bright color at this moment, with a begging, begging look, but also He looked at Shi Xueshu with a jerky and stiff expression.
He saved the boy without hesitation, but the pills on his body had already been used up, so he could only tear off his robe and hold the wound on his neck firmly with his hands, worrying whether the boy's life would survive.
But the boy in his arms moved, as if using his last strength to kiss his palm, watching him faint with a smile.
His palms twitched, feeling the warmth that he hadn't felt for a long time, and his heart seemed to be out of control at that time.
......
"Boom-"
A stone fell into the water, creating waves on the surface of the lake, interrupting Shi Xueshu's memory.He turned his head, a touch of red almost dazzled his eyes.
The boy in red held two big lotus pods in one hand, threw a stone into the lake with the other, and said twice, "Why can't you play it? It's not fun."
Seemingly aware of Shi Xueshu's gaze, the boy blinked at him.
"Hey, Taoist priest, did I disturb you?"
Under the sunlight, the fiery red brocade robe was embroidered with clusters of auspicious clouds, a gold collar hung around the young man's neck, and a jade stone in the shape of a bird was hanging on it. The gold and jade hair crown was tied high, revealing a smooth and full forehead. His smile was wanton and generous, jade Bai has a lively and beautiful face, and his dark eyes are looking at him curiously. There is a small red mole under the corner of the slightly raised eye, which adds a bit of charm to this lovely and beautiful face that shouldn't be there at this age. color, but it was broken in the smile, leaving only refreshment.
It's completely different from Luan Chi's.
Shi Xueshu frowned inadvertently, the eyes behind Bu Siling had fully recovered, and he could see the young man clearly with his eyes.
He also hooked his lips into a smile, wanton and happy.
"Don't bother. Dare I ask what the young master's name is?"
"Haha, I..." The young man paused for a moment and smiled, revealing his white teeth, "My surname is Bai, one name is late, and the one who is late is late."
"..."
Shi Xueshu tried hard to suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, at least he didn't read these two words together, and raised his hand in salute: "Mr. Bai, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Xialushan Shi Xueshu."
"Huh, Master Daoist also likes to eat lotus seeds?" Bai Chi didn't seem to think that there was anything inappropriate about his name at all. He looked at the lotus pod in Shi Xueshu's hand and raised his own again, "It's just Daoist Master, You need to buy a big one for this lotus pod, as there are more lotus seeds in it to make it full."
Shi Xueshu said "Yes", and handed the lotus pod in his hand to Bai Chi: "If you like it, I will give it to you."
"Okay...cough." Bai Chi stretched out his hand very skillfully at first, but seemed to think of something suddenly, and the stretched out hand turned back stiffly, "Well, I don't have any change in my hand now... ...."
He took out a golden ingot and handed it to Shi Xueshu: "Here, let me exchange this with you."
Shi Xueshu shook her head: "No need. It's just two lotus pods, you don't need so many."
"Take it if you tell you to." Bai Chi impatiently stuffed the ingot into his arms, reached out and took two lotus pods and hugged them in his arms. His body, which was originally not that strong, seemed to be unable to hold it for four with one hand. Only the lotus pod, now I have no hands to peel the lotus pod and eat it.
Shi Xueshu looked amused, but didn't say a word anymore, raised her eyes and looked at the boat rowing far away on the lake and continued to wait.
"Hey, Daoist, are you here for boating too?" Bai Chi touched Shi Xueshu's arm with his elbow, and the cool feeling made him lean against Shi Xueshu, "It's pretty good, it's pretty good Elegant."
Shi Xueshu still gave a "hmm", as if she didn't want to say too much, but she didn't notice that the boy was already very close to her.
"That's such a coincidence, I also fell in love with that boat." Bai Chi squinted at him, his black eyes under the sun were full of clever cunning, "And I've asked, there are too many tourists on Wupeng Lake recently, and now It seems that only this boat is sailing back, and the next trip will have to wait at least an hour, this scorching summer is really unbearable."
"It's really difficult." Shi Xueshu said lightly, "But when I came, there was no one waiting, so I must be able to board the boat smoothly."
"That's hard to say, isn't there an extra me now! Judging by the appearance of the Taoist priest, I'm afraid he doesn't have much gold and silver on him. The highest price wins. I will definitely be able to get on that boat." He smiled. Looking at Shi Xueshu, she poked her head over and stared at him sideways, "But... the Taoist priest is really good-looking, and I don't mind bringing you one more, but there is one condition."
"I would like to hear more about it." Shi Xueshu nodded slightly. Bai Chi is considered tall among his peers, but he is still nearly a head shorter than Shi Xueshu. The seemingly thin white robe has long shoulders, wide and narrow waist, and a tall and straight figure. Ru Song, when standing here and bowing his head at this moment, he does have the demeanor of a gentle gentleman, but he does not lose the cold might of a warrior.
Bai Chi's throat rolled, and he almost forgot what he wanted to say. He recovered and raised four lotus pods with both hands: "You help me peel the lotus pods, and I'll take you on a cruise, free of charge!"
Shi Xueshu was almost covered by the four lotus pods, he reached out to take it in a funny way, and nodded: "Okay, thank you, Mr. Bai."
Therefore, Bai Chi easily "wrapped" the entire cruise ship that could carry a dozen people with an ingot of gold, and sat down with Shi Xueshu at the low tea table at the other end of the boatman to enjoy the lake tour.
And eating the peeled lotus seeds.
Sweet and delicious, every grain is like this.He squinted his eyes happily, thinking that what the peddler said was right, the lotus pod really made people lucky after eating it.
Bai Chi propped his chin, his side face seemed to be admiring the lotus scenery in the pond, but he was actually peeking at Shi Xueshu who was carefully peeling the lotus seeds.
The slender and thin fingers with visible bones were still pale and strong, and the nails were round and clean. He gently opened the lotus pod, took out a blue lotus seed, slowly peeled it off and placed it on the short handkerchief beside the table. Neat, even though his eyes were covered with white silk, he didn't delay the movement of his hands at all. After a while, the veil was covered with peeled white and fat lotus seeds.
He stretched out his hand, grabbed a handful and threw it into his mouth, biting lightly, the sweet juice spread on the tip of his tongue, accompanied by a cool feeling, as if the man's fingers had passed between his lips and teeth, squinting his eyes contentedly and repeating back and forth.
Suddenly, Bai Chi sat up straight, and murmured, "You don't chew, do you?"
Shi Xueshu: "You gave me gold and invited me to take a boat for free, why should I refuse you?"
As he spoke, he put the last lotus seed on the handkerchief, reached into the lake water and stirred the lake water a few times.
Can you hear what I said?
Bai Chi swallowed the lotus seeds in his mouth, took out a white handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to him to wipe his hands, pursed his lips: "Then are you so nice to everyone?" Are you all so sensitive and considerate?Suddenly a little upset.
Shi Xueshu turned to face him and took the handkerchief: "No."
Bai Chi said "Oh" and was about to withdraw his hand, but his fingers were suddenly grabbed. He looked up in astonishment, only to see Shi Xueshu speaking naturally.
"You look like an old friend of mine."
His heart trembled, and he immediately withdrew his hand as if being scalded to his fingertips, and sneered: "Haha, is that right? Daoist Priest, you are not very old, but you have a deep cultivation, and you must be a senior-level figure. Your old friend's age It must not be too young. But I am only sixteen this year, and it is my first time to travel abroad, so you must have misunderstood."
"Well, naturally." Shi Xueshu wiped the water stains on her hands, and said calmly, "That person is no longer alive, so you can't be him."
Bai Chi moved his eyes away and looked at the lotus flowers in the pond: "Ah, is that because I look like him? That's why you agreed to me?"
As if he realized something, he looked into Shi Xueshu's eyes, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot that Taoist priest, you have an eye disease."
"Oh, what a beautiful scenery, come and taste the lotus seeds, this one is so sweet!" He stood up abruptly, causing the boat to shake. After laughing twice, he picked up a lotus seed and sent it to the teacher. Xue Shu lips, "Try it, don't think about those unhappy things!"
His wrist was grabbed, Shi Xueshu took the lotus seed from his fingertips, and politely let go: "Thank you, I will do it myself."
There is a slight alienation between speech and action.
Bai Chi's slender and thick eyelashes trembled, then he laughed and said "I'm going to see the scenery", then lowered his head and closed the curtain, got into the cabin and walked to the other side.
"Old man, which direction are we going?"
"Ah, just go to the lake, and go back at the end."
"Oh, can you pick lotus pods in this lake?"
"Okay, this piece is from my family, my brother's and nephew's, you can eat as much as you want, and you can take it home!"
"Okay. Then I'll ask you something again...then..."
The voice on the other side of the boat became quieter, and Shi Xueshu didn't want to expend too much spiritual energy to listen to what he was saying to others at the moment. He looked down at the lake water, and there were some dark whirlpools hidden under the quiet surface.
The moment he put his hand into the lake just now, he could clearly feel the weak devilish energy in the lake retreating quickly, as if he didn't want to be discovered by him, and quickly disappeared.
He was still holding the lotus seed with his fingertips, slowly put it into his mouth, and vaguely sensed a trace of magic energy that was so thin that even Man Yuxing could hardly detect it in the lotus heart, not to mention ordinary people, even monks You won't even notice it when you eat it.
No wonder.
It's no wonder that since he stepped into this star town, he has felt some faint demon energy. He thought it was because there were demon cultivators in the lotus bone palace here, but now it seems that it may be far more than that.
Someone is infiltrating the lakes and ponds here with demonic energy, causing the lotus flowers that bloom here, as well as the picked lotus pods, lotus roots, etc., to be infected with magical energy.
If ordinary people eat these things for a long time, they will be entangled with demonic energy, and the whole person will soon decline. Young men and women in good physical condition may become magic cultivators, and then the entire Dianxing Town will become demon cultivators. base.
More importantly, here, he discovered Yunchu's aura.
Being able to find Yunchu's trace so easily is also thanks to the Hundred Treasure Talisman that Man Yuxing gave to the three children, which requires their own blood and spiritual power to activate, and the sect will also record their aura, As long as you get Yunchu's corresponding roster, you can feel Yunchu's aura and find him quickly.
When he woke up at Tingxue Peak that day, he found that Chongming had disappeared, and even the feathers and jade liquid he usually packed were taken away. He probably understood that this little thing finally took shape, but there might be some Why don't you want to see yourself.
Maybe he was worried that he would be involved in the disappearance of the spirit beast because of him, so he hid first.
He didn't think much about it, so he went up to the Kongchan Hall, talked with Man Yuxing for more than two hours, and then went down the mountain.
Not only to find the whereabouts of Chongming, Yunchu, Su Cong's green tit, the jade silkworm full of rain stars, and the hundreds of missing spirit beast cubs in Lulu Mountain, these things cannot be left to him to stay in Tingxue Peak retreat.
It seemed that the matter was not aimed at Chongming, not at Lushan, but at him, Shi Xueshu.
It seems that where the matter started, it will lead him to where it is now.
Wupeng Lake, the place where he and Luan Chi met for the first time and finally became Taoist couples, was also the base where the Mozu monks were first discovered by them. Luan Si used cruel methods to train his men and children in the training camp.
Who is going to lure him this time, and what is the purpose of taking so much trouble?With his current appearance, he has neither natal magic weapon nor natal spirit beast, with meager spiritual power and weak body, what is there to be worthy of such a trap.
The boy's footsteps "da da" came from the other side of the boat, and he opened the curtain and was about to pass through the cabin.
He rolled the lotus seeds on the tip of his tongue, bit them open on his teeth, and the fragrance diffused in his mouth.
Bai Chi happened to look over, blinked and asked, "How is it, is it sweet?"
Shi Xueshu smiled and shook her head: "It's really not sweet."
After finishing speaking, he jumped into the lake amidst the boy's exclamation.
The water in the lake in July is not very cold, and the carp have always been swimming happily in it, but they were startled by a person who fell into the water suddenly, and hurriedly avoided it.
The exclamation and noisy voices were isolated from the surface of the water. When Bu Siling fell into the water, he floated beside Shi Xueshu and went forward to explore the way. His eyes opened under the water, and the originally gray pupils now returned to dark and lively. Looking closely, one can even see an imperceptible red in the center of his pupils.
It was as fiery red as the feathers on the Chongming bird.
After that day, Shi Xueshu woke up and found that her eye disease was completely cured. According to legend, the tears of the Chongming Bird can heal the injury like a phoenix, but only for eye diseases.
It’s just that Chongming Birds are born to only know how to play happily, and their ability to empathize with humans is extremely poor. Even if they watch people cry, they will only find it amusing. healing.
But Shi Xueshu obviously found that his memory seemed to have been peeped. His spiritual sense has always been sharp, but he can feel the familiar aura of the person who peeped into his memory, so he is more sure that his eyes must be healed by Chongming.
That guy is crying.
His first reaction was to wonder how sad that person would be when he cried, and whether he was going to scold and cry again.
A hand grabbed Shi Xueshu's belt from behind, stopping his sinking tendency.
Shi Xueshu felt her waist loosen, the belt snapped in response, and the outer robe floated and spread apart in the water.
Turning around, he saw a touch of red clothes, and his dark pupils were staring at him firmly.
Bai Chi chased him into the water, his wrists were wrapped several times by Busi, and he dragged him to the surface of the water. He quickly grabbed Shi Xueshu's robe with his other hand, and with all his strength, Shi Xueshu His robe came off.
The snow-white robe was ripped off from the shoulders in the water, and Shi Xueshu's hands were forced to be pulled behind her back and trapped by the robe.
With no thought of tugging, Bai Chi quickly grabbed Shi Xueshu's robe and hugged his arm.
Shi Xueshu was stuck in the middle of the movement of putting on the robe. Turning around, she saw the red-clothed young man's face was flushed, and he looked at himself begging for help.
Because Chongming Bird's physique is fire, he hates water by nature, and his spiritual power will be greatly reduced after entering the water.
But not to drowning.
It seemed that Bai Chi's condition was not very good, his fair face turned a little red at the moment, but he held Shi Xueshu's arm tightly and didn't let go.
Shi Xueshu frowned, but his hands were trapped in his robe, and Bai Chi was very strong at this time, holding his arm as if grabbing a life-saving straw, which made him somewhat unable to get out.
At this moment, there were constant sounds of people jumping into the water on the surface of the water. Presumably, someone found that they had jumped into the water and hadn't come up for a long time, so they jumped down to save people.
Shi Xueshu was a little helpless, originally planned to sneak directly into the Lotus Bone Palace, it was dangerous there and he didn't want Bai Chi to follow him, but this variable...
Really embarrassing.
He had no choice but to control Busi and plan to drag both of them to the surface.
Busi was summoned to float over, wrapped around the wrist behind Shi Xueshu, and pulled him up.This is good, the other hand that he just struggled out of his clothes was bound again.
Shi Xueshu: ...
Bai Chi couldn't take it anymore, bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes, his hands were like octopus grabbing Shi Xueshu's shoulders, he hugged him tightly and pressed his lips against it.
That trembling tongue licked Shi Xueshu's lips in aggrieved way, as if accusing this person of why he didn't come to breathe out for him.
Shi Xueshu opened his lips and tongue, allowing him to catch the air in his mouth fiercely, and let a bit of spiritual power pass by.
The originally tense and stiff body of the boy who was hugging him gradually softened, and the breath he absorbed gradually changed.
"Hey, I saw it, it's almost sinking at the bottom of the pond, why is it sinking so deep!"
"I'll save it, I'm good at water!"
"No, where are the two of you, I'll be with you!"
There was the faint sound of conversation on the surface of the water, followed by the sound of two or three people jumping into the water.
Busi also pulled Shi Xueshu's wrist up, so that he could be completely seen by these people in just a few breaths.
And see clearly that the two of them are not suitable to appear in front of others now.
Shi Xueshu immediately issued an order, and without thinking about turning the direction down, he stretched out his arms to embrace Bai Chi, and the two fell to the bottom of the lake together.
Bai Chi was already much better now, and he stretched out his arms to wrap tightly around Shi Xueshu's waist, facing the two of them about to dive into the bottom of the dirty mud without any fear.
It's just that he didn't expect that at the moment Shi Xueshu touched the mud bottom, Bu Siling suddenly wrapped her waist around his waist, and the palm was pushed away mercilessly, and he suddenly floated towards the water like this, Shi Xue But Shu disappeared under the water in an instant.
He struggled to keep up, but he couldn't get away from Bu Si Ling, and before he surfaced, a few hands stretched out to fish him out of the water.
Lying on the deck of the boat, the white red brocade robe was wet and stuck to his body, and the white silk silk was wrapped around his waist. He came back to his senses and gasped for breath, surrounded by several people.
"Hey, hey, he hasn't choked on the water yet, and he's still alive and kicking after going down for so long. The young master's water skills are really good!"
"Yes, it's okay to think about that Taoist priest, why didn't we see him?"
The boatman wiped the water off his face, with a worried expression on his face: "Young master, you have scared me. Although this Wupeng Lake is not very deep, it is full of mud and people. No one dares to come here to collect water on weekdays." The lotus root is because I don’t know how many people went down before and never got up again.”
"Yeah, I don't know what's going on with the Taoist priest now. I think the Taoist priest has great powers and good fortune, so he should be fine."
"But I just saw that the young master and the Taoist priest are still together, why are you alone now, young master?"
The other two civilians who seemed to be called in temporarily to help were also full of doubts at the moment.
Bai Chi ignored them, stretched out his hands to support his body and sat up, turned over and was about to jump into the water, but was grabbed by someone with quick eyes and hands.
He turned his head and looked at the boatman coldly, his dark eyes were calm but filled with a deep chill, which made the boatman tremble in fright and let go of his hands.
"Puff-"
He jumped into the water for the second time without any hesitation, and was annoyed by the exclamation and persuasion behind him, but at this moment, Bu Siling on his waist also became stubborn and pulled him to the surface of the water.
Bai Chi stretched out his hand to grab Bai Ling, and sent a message from his spiritual consciousness.
[Pull again and I will burn you]
A cluster of flames loomed in his palm, and it was so hot that Ling shook, and it wrapped around his waist obediently and stopped moving.
He couldn't hold his breath for long, this time his body was born with a sense of fear and disgust towards water, he had to be distracted all the time to resist this repulsion in his body, and swim down quickly.
No one knows where the Lotus Bone Palace is better than him. If Shi Xueshu went down 300 years ago, he would never frown. He would even prepare a table of wine and food on the shore for him to come back.
But now Shi Xueshu has only a small amount of spiritual power left, and he gave some of it to himself just now, and even put the white silk that has produced spirituality on his body, if this continues, he is looking for death!
I really want to scold this person every day, there is a limit to being brave!
Soon, he swam to the bottom of the lake, touched the silt and dived in, but for some reason, the silt that should have dragged people down now repulsively pushed him out.
In this way, he was stunned, and suddenly realized that his current body was a Chongming bird from the inside to the outside, not Luan Chi, the young master of the demon clan!
In the past, he could freely shuttle back and forth in this barrier without being blocked or attacked.
But the current him, on the one hand, cannot be accepted by this enchantment, and on the other hand, he will not know Shi Xueshu's methods to untie the enchantment, and the body of the divine bird makes these magic slimes feel uncomfortable, Naturally, it will reject his approach.
He suddenly felt a little frustrated. Could it be that Shi Xueshu pushed him away because he is currently a mortal young master?
That's right, he is such a good person, naturally he would not watch himself, a "mortal", commit suicide.
Suddenly, a piece of white in front of his eyes shone brightly on the dark bottom of the water. Bai Chi took a closer look, and saw that it was Shi Xueshu whose belt had been torn off by him earlier, and then broke free from the bound robe.
The breath in the chest cavity was running low, and there was some scorching pain in his lungs, but he still struggled to swim to the robe. Fortunately, he didn't understand what he meant, so he helped him reach the robe.
As if he had caught some treasure, he hugged the clothes tightly in his arms. At this moment, Bu Si Ling began to perform his duties seriously, and quickly dragged him out of the water.
Several people on the boat saw him showing his head, and immediately fished him out of the water with all their might.
"Oh, I said young master, you are so impulsive, what's the matter, have you found someone?"
"This Taoist priest either has supernatural powers and has gone elsewhere, or he must be trapped by mud. The mud here is too evil, no one dares to go down easily!"
"However, there are a lot of cultivators in the town today, and we should be able to find a way to find them, but by that time, even the corpses will be cold."
Bai Chi wiped the water off his face, tightly hugged the same drenched robe as him, and said in a deep voice: "The Taoist priest is fine, but he left beforehand. I just watched him go to the other side. Swimmed in one direction."
"Oh, it turns out that's the case, so don't worry." The boatman and the others sighed, "You really have great powers."
"Then young master, are you still swimming in the lake? Or go back to the shore and change your clothes first." The boatman asked.
Several people's clothes are also wet, but now in July, the sun is fierce, and they can dry after a while in the sun. They have made a living on the water all year round, and they have long been used to this kind of life. The delicate little prince needs to change into comfortable clothes.
"Swim, why don't you swim?" Bai Chi pulled the corners of his lips, showing a chilly smile, first twisted the water in the white robe, then got up and twisted the hem of his clothes, wrapping the silk around him. On his own wrist, he walked to the position where the two of them were sitting upright and admiring the scenery.
He sat down slowly, and put the white robe to dry on the table. From the corner of his eye, he saw the peeled snow-white lotus seeds scattered on the ground, so he leaned down to pick them up one by one.
"Master, if you still want to eat lotus pods, I'll pick them up for you, and don't want to drop them." The boatman couldn't help but said.
After all, the employer gave a whole ingot of gold, not to mention picking a few lotus pods, and swimming in the water for fun is no problem.We must know that this kind of deposit is enough for several of them to support the boat for several years.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the boatman winked at the two people beside him, and the three of them were about to come forward to help him pick up the lotus seeds.
"Don't touch it! Mind your own business." Bai Chi only said this in a cold voice, and after dismissing the few people who wanted to help, he lowered his head and continued to pick up lotus seeds, but the discomfort in his words made them feel keenly arrive.
The boatman was terrified. He didn't know why the young master, who seemed to have a good temper before, seemed to have changed suddenly. He didn't dare to say anything and turned around to punting the boat. The two people beside him saw that nothing was wrong. each go back.
The sun is still shining brightly, but it may be dazzling at noon. The surrounding lotus ponds are blowing in the wind, and there are still many people enjoying the scenery on the lake or on both sides of the lake.
Bai Chi leaned on the chair, twisted the hand wrapped around Busi Ling, picked up a lotus seed just picked up, put it into his mouth, and said vaguely.
"asshole."
"Give me back intact."
The author has something to say: The young man in red: Hey, if I don’t tell you, you will never guess who I am!
Shi Xueshu: Yes, I can't guess that you are Chong Ming, let alone Luan Chi.
The vest has never been worn on the body. jpg is talking about you.

"Selling lotus pods! Fresh lotus pods, three pennies, guaranteed to be the sweetest in a radius of ten miles. Children will be smart and not sick if they eat them, and adults will be healthy and lucky if they eat them!"
"The freshly baked lotus seed cake is fragrant and not greasy, it melts in the mouth, and it tastes even better when it's hot!"
"Lotus crisps, lotus cakes! The palace's secret recipe for lotus cakes! The emperor's ladies in the palace love it the most, and the immortals of Penglai Mountain and Lushan Mountain also like it. Come and try it!"
......
The streets are bustling with crowds, shoulder to shoulder, but the things that seem to be sold are obviously more food than other things.It was originally called Dim Sum Town, and it is said that there were a few master masters in the palace selected from this town. The people in the town are also proud of their craftsmanship, and their reputation has attracted a large number of businessmen to come and visit. Appreciating delicacies, even some disciples from other immortal sects occasionally pass by to buy one or two, so the head of the pavilion, with the ink in his belly, changed the name to a slightly immortal mountain-Dianxing Town.
The day approaching July is a good time to enjoy the lotus picking lotus and pan the lake, but this time the tourists flocking to the town include not only literati and poets who come here admiringly, passing business travelers, but also some Jianghu people with swords, and A disciple of the fairy sect with fluttering fairy robes and a sword coming and going.
It only provoked more and more people who came here curiously, and the business seemed to be getting better.
"Two lotus pods, thank you." Qing Jun's voice was polite and gentle, and Shi Xueshu, who was dressed in white and gray-haired, spread out his palm, and there were three copper coins in it.
The peddler selling lotus pods by the arch bridge was stunned, a sense of coolness enveloped his whole body, dispelling the scorching heat of the scorching summer, he looked up and saw a man dressed in white, even his eyes were covered with a white damask, he was so startled that he almost sat down to the ground.
"Ah, fairy, fairy..."
He was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment. Even though the person in front of him had almost white hair and was blindfolded, he was still breath-takingly beautiful, gentle and polite, and the white Taoist robe on his body was full of immortality. know how to call it.
A Taoist from Xianmen came to my place to buy lotus pods!
A Taoist from Xianmen came to my place to buy lotus pods!
"Two lotus pods, three wen, right?" Shi Xueshu stretched out her hand to support the peddler's arm to prevent him from falling, "Be careful, there is a river behind."
"Ah, yes, yes." The peddler thanked again and again, "Thank you, thank you Daoist. This, this is the lotus."
The peddler picked out the two largest lotus pods from a basket, and handed them to Shi Xueshu with both hands, his eyes glowing: "Master Dao, you don't need to pay, you can come to me today to buy lotus pods, which is enough for me to blow them for a year! "
Shi Xueshu didn't pick up the lotus pod, but turned sideways and pointed backwards: "Then they don't need to pay you to buy it from you?"
The peddler was taken aback for a moment, followed Shi Xueshu's hand to look over, and immediately gasped.
On the street not far away, among the bustling crowd, there are many men and women wearing traditional Taoist robes, with high hair crowns, extraordinary manners, dignified faces and unwavering eyes, obviously they are all from the fairy sect!
It's strange, I haven't seen a single person for several years, how come there are so many people today!
But he had already said it, and it was hard to take it back, so he still raised his head and smiled: "Master Daoist, this... huh, where's the person?"
The previous person had disappeared unknowingly, he looked down and saw that the lotus pods in his hand were still there, only three pennies more, as if two of the smaller lotus pods in the other frame had been taken away.
What a strange Taoist, big ones don't want small ones.
He put away the money, sat on the small bench and continued to yell: "Sell lotus pods, sell lotus pods, three pennies for two..."
It seemed that he was a little absent-minded, and the ice-like face of that Taoist was still in his mind.
It's really beautiful.
"It's just that the brain is not working." A clear young voice came from in front of him, with a teasing smile, "I made you laugh."
The peddler raised his head, but before he could see the person clearly, a fiery red flashed in front of him, and the two big lotus pods in his hand disappeared, replaced by three copper coins.
The boy's voice seemed to be heard in the distance: "Wait for me to taste it, I will buy it when it is sweet!"
Holding two lotus pods with long green stems in her hands, Shi Xueshu stood beside Wupeng Lake.
The deep bottom of the lotus pond that can't be seen at a glance is the end of today.
When it comes to Moxiu, most people will think of dark and gloomy mountain canyons, or ditch rat holes that can't see the sun, but in fact, the head of Moxiu—that is, the Mozun Luansi they call The strongholds are set up in three places near the water.
Wupeng Lake, Taohuawu, Spring Lake.
These are places with excellent scenery, spring-like seasons and a lot of people.
Therefore, when Shi Xueshu followed the clues to find Wupeng Lake for the first time a long time ago, he doubted whether there was a gathering place of demons here. After all, from the surface, there was not even a trace of demonic energy here.
Just follow the lake water into the lotus, pass through the layers of lotus leaves, the crowds and towns are far behind, they will jump into the water at a certain point, find the vortex enchantment in the depths of the silt, after breaking through it, once again When you surface, you will come to the first stronghold of the demons - the Lotus Bone Palace.
It is also on the bank of a large lotus pond. The difference from Wupeng Lake is that there are palaces built of dense white bones on the bank, exposed to the gloomy sunlight, glowing with little blue light and exuding a strong demonic aura.
It was as if after the world had been turned upside down, the lotus that was supposed to emerge from the silt and clear ripples became an evil ghost here. The screams in the palace were mostly monks who were trapped here and could not get out, and ordinary people who were persecuted to absorb blood and practice kung fu. , spirit beasts that inhaled too much magic energy and turned them into demons, and a group of crazy demon cultivators who fanatically believed in Luan Si.
At that time, Shi Xueshu brought Man Yuxing and a dozen or so disciples into this place, and the mud all over his body tightly wrapped them around them like ropes, and Si cut off the mud of these mortals from the sheath, and broke through the entrance of the hall. Moxiu rushed into the palace and rescued the dying master who had been trapped for more than 70 days.
He hugged his master tightly. It was the first time he was so close to his master since he learned of his extremely cold physique, but it was also the last time, and this time, his master held his hand in front of him and Man Yuxing. The door token was passed to him.
"You have to be good and protect the younger brother." The master's hair was tortured to gray, there was no good flesh on his body, and his arms were cut off, so Shi Xueshu could only instruct Shi Xueshu to take out the master's token from the ring hidden under his tongue, "Xiu Bai, take your Si Cong sword and protect everyone who should be protected. Let's go."
With tears in their eyes, the two of them restrained the master's bones, swept the entire lotus bone palace, and killed almost all the demon cultivators. Man Yuxing's eyes were blood red, wishing to uproot this place, and Shi Xueshu didn't stop dissuading him at all. Run deeper into the palace.
Shi Xueshu, who gritted her teeth and chased after her, lost her way without accident, and the ecstasy array made them fall into Luan Si's trap. Sure enough, those demon cultivators who could be easily killed outside, and the master who died in a miserable state were all bait. It is the bait to lure them deep into the palace!
When he seemed to be the only one left in the entire palace, and he couldn't get out no matter what, batch after batch of powerful monsters and monsters continued to emerge from all directions, from yellow-level, mysterious-level, and earth-level monsters—up to those of the sky-level monsters. Appeared, forcing him into a dead end tomb.
Although there is only one word difference between monsters and spirit beasts, monsters of the same level are several times more powerful than spirit beasts.At that time, Shi Xueshu, who had not yet reached the level of Mahayana, hid in the tomb with difficulty, and sealed the door of the tomb with blood to resist the attack of monsters.
At the same time, he saw the black-clothed boy in the tomb whose throat was pierced by a bone demon with one hand.
The boy was thin, and his black clothes were soaked in blood, and he couldn't see other colors. Only the large drops of blood gushing out from his porcelain-white face made him look pitiful and terrifying.
The moment he looked over in surprise, the boy's black eyes suddenly turned, and the colorless eyes as thick as the night sky seemed to be dyed with a layer of bright color at this moment, with a begging, begging look, but also He looked at Shi Xueshu with a jerky and stiff expression.
He saved the boy without hesitation, but the pills on his body had already been used up, so he could only tear off his robe and hold the wound on his neck firmly with his hands, worrying whether the boy's life would survive.
But the boy in his arms moved, as if using his last strength to kiss his palm, watching him faint with a smile.
His palms twitched, feeling the warmth that he hadn't felt for a long time, and his heart seemed to be out of control at that time.
......
"Boom-"
A stone fell into the water, creating waves on the surface of the lake, interrupting Shi Xueshu's memory.He turned his head, a touch of red almost dazzled his eyes.
The boy in red held two big lotus pods in one hand, threw a stone into the lake with the other, and said twice, "Why can't you play it? It's not fun."
Seemingly aware of Shi Xueshu's gaze, the boy blinked at him.
"Hey, Taoist priest, did I disturb you?"
Under the sunlight, the fiery red brocade robe was embroidered with clusters of auspicious clouds, a gold collar hung around the young man's neck, and a jade stone in the shape of a bird was hanging on it. The gold and jade hair crown was tied high, revealing a smooth and full forehead. His smile was wanton and generous, jade Bai has a lively and beautiful face, and his dark eyes are looking at him curiously. There is a small red mole under the corner of the slightly raised eye, which adds a bit of charm to this lovely and beautiful face that shouldn't be there at this age. color, but it was broken in the smile, leaving only refreshment.
It's completely different from Luan Chi's.
Shi Xueshu frowned inadvertently, the eyes behind Bu Siling had fully recovered, and he could see the young man clearly with his eyes.
He also hooked his lips into a smile, wanton and happy.
"Don't bother. Dare I ask what the young master's name is?"
"Haha, I..." The young man paused for a moment and smiled, revealing his white teeth, "My surname is Bai, one name is late, and the one who is late is late."
"..."
Shi Xueshu tried hard to suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, at least he didn't read these two words together, and raised his hand in salute: "Mr. Bai, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Xialushan Shi Xueshu."
"Huh, Master Daoist also likes to eat lotus seeds?" Bai Chi didn't seem to think that there was anything inappropriate about his name at all. He looked at the lotus pod in Shi Xueshu's hand and raised his own again, "It's just Daoist Master, You need to buy a big one for this lotus pod, as there are more lotus seeds in it to make it full."
Shi Xueshu said "Yes", and handed the lotus pod in his hand to Bai Chi: "If you like it, I will give it to you."
"Okay...cough." Bai Chi stretched out his hand very skillfully at first, but seemed to think of something suddenly, and the stretched out hand turned back stiffly, "Well, I don't have any change in my hand now... ...."
He took out a golden ingot and handed it to Shi Xueshu: "Here, let me exchange this with you."
Shi Xueshu shook her head: "No need. It's just two lotus pods, you don't need so many."
"Take it if you tell you to." Bai Chi impatiently stuffed the ingot into his arms, reached out and took two lotus pods and hugged them in his arms. His body, which was originally not that strong, seemed to be unable to hold it for four with one hand. Only the lotus pod, now I have no hands to peel the lotus pod and eat it.
Shi Xueshu looked amused, but didn't say a word anymore, raised her eyes and looked at the boat rowing far away on the lake and continued to wait.
"Hey, Daoist, are you here for boating too?" Bai Chi touched Shi Xueshu's arm with his elbow, and the cool feeling made him lean against Shi Xueshu, "It's pretty good, it's pretty good Elegant."
Shi Xueshu still gave a "hmm", as if she didn't want to say too much, but she didn't notice that the boy was already very close to her.
"That's such a coincidence, I also fell in love with that boat." Bai Chi squinted at him, his black eyes under the sun were full of clever cunning, "And I've asked, there are too many tourists on Wupeng Lake recently, and now It seems that only this boat is sailing back, and the next trip will have to wait at least an hour, this scorching summer is really unbearable."
"It's really difficult." Shi Xueshu said lightly, "But when I came, there was no one waiting, so I must be able to board the boat smoothly."
"That's hard to say, isn't there an extra me now! Judging by the appearance of the Taoist priest, I'm afraid he doesn't have much gold and silver on him. The highest price wins. I will definitely be able to get on that boat." He smiled. Looking at Shi Xueshu, she poked her head over and stared at him sideways, "But... the Taoist priest is really good-looking, and I don't mind bringing you one more, but there is one condition."
"I would like to hear more about it." Shi Xueshu nodded slightly. Bai Chi is considered tall among his peers, but he is still nearly a head shorter than Shi Xueshu. The seemingly thin white robe has long shoulders, wide and narrow waist, and a tall and straight figure. Ru Song, when standing here and bowing his head at this moment, he does have the demeanor of a gentle gentleman, but he does not lose the cold might of a warrior.
Bai Chi's throat rolled, and he almost forgot what he wanted to say. He recovered and raised four lotus pods with both hands: "You help me peel the lotus pods, and I'll take you on a cruise, free of charge!"
Shi Xueshu was almost covered by the four lotus pods, he reached out to take it in a funny way, and nodded: "Okay, thank you, Mr. Bai."
Therefore, Bai Chi easily "wrapped" the entire cruise ship that could carry a dozen people with an ingot of gold, and sat down with Shi Xueshu at the low tea table at the other end of the boatman to enjoy the lake tour.
And eating the peeled lotus seeds.
Sweet and delicious, every grain is like this.He squinted his eyes happily, thinking that what the peddler said was right, the lotus pod really made people lucky after eating it.
Bai Chi propped his chin, his side face seemed to be admiring the lotus scenery in the pond, but he was actually peeking at Shi Xueshu who was carefully peeling the lotus seeds.
The slender and thin fingers with visible bones were still pale and strong, and the nails were round and clean. He gently opened the lotus pod, took out a blue lotus seed, slowly peeled it off and placed it on the short handkerchief beside the table. Neat, even though his eyes were covered with white silk, he didn't delay the movement of his hands at all. After a while, the veil was covered with peeled white and fat lotus seeds.
He stretched out his hand, grabbed a handful and threw it into his mouth, biting lightly, the sweet juice spread on the tip of his tongue, accompanied by a cool feeling, as if the man's fingers had passed between his lips and teeth, squinting his eyes contentedly and repeating back and forth.
Suddenly, Bai Chi sat up straight, and murmured, "You don't chew, do you?"
Shi Xueshu: "You gave me gold and invited me to take a boat for free, why should I refuse you?"
As he spoke, he put the last lotus seed on the handkerchief, reached into the lake water and stirred the lake water a few times.
Can you hear what I said?
Bai Chi swallowed the lotus seeds in his mouth, took out a white handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to him to wipe his hands, pursed his lips: "Then are you so nice to everyone?" Are you all so sensitive and considerate?Suddenly a little upset.
Shi Xueshu turned to face him and took the handkerchief: "No."
Bai Chi said "Oh" and was about to withdraw his hand, but his fingers were suddenly grabbed. He looked up in astonishment, only to see Shi Xueshu speaking naturally.
"You look like an old friend of mine."
His heart trembled, and he immediately withdrew his hand as if being scalded to his fingertips, and sneered: "Haha, is that right? Daoist Priest, you are not very old, but you have a deep cultivation, and you must be a senior-level figure. Your old friend's age It must not be too young. But I am only sixteen this year, and it is my first time to travel abroad, so you must have misunderstood."
"Well, naturally." Shi Xueshu wiped the water stains on her hands, and said calmly, "That person is no longer alive, so you can't be him."
Bai Chi moved his eyes away and looked at the lotus flowers in the pond: "Ah, is that because I look like him? That's why you agreed to me?"
As if he realized something, he looked into Shi Xueshu's eyes, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot that Taoist priest, you have an eye disease."
"Oh, what a beautiful scenery, come and taste the lotus seeds, this one is so sweet!" He stood up abruptly, causing the boat to shake. After laughing twice, he picked up a lotus seed and sent it to the teacher. Xue Shu lips, "Try it, don't think about those unhappy things!"
His wrist was grabbed, Shi Xueshu took the lotus seed from his fingertips, and politely let go: "Thank you, I will do it myself."
There is a slight alienation between speech and action.
Bai Chi's slender and thick eyelashes trembled, then he laughed and said "I'm going to see the scenery", then lowered his head and closed the curtain, got into the cabin and walked to the other side.
"Old man, which direction are we going?"
"Ah, just go to the lake, and go back at the end."
"Oh, can you pick lotus pods in this lake?"
"Okay, this piece is from my family, my brother's and nephew's, you can eat as much as you want, and you can take it home!"
"Okay. Then I'll ask you something again...then..."
The voice on the other side of the boat became quieter, and Shi Xueshu didn't want to expend too much spiritual energy to listen to what he was saying to others at the moment. He looked down at the lake water, and there were some dark whirlpools hidden under the quiet surface.
The moment he put his hand into the lake just now, he could clearly feel the weak devilish energy in the lake retreating quickly, as if he didn't want to be discovered by him, and quickly disappeared.
He was still holding the lotus seed with his fingertips, slowly put it into his mouth, and vaguely sensed a trace of magic energy that was so thin that even Man Yuxing could hardly detect it in the lotus heart, not to mention ordinary people, even monks You won't even notice it when you eat it.
No wonder.
It's no wonder that since he stepped into this star town, he has felt some faint demon energy. He thought it was because there were demon cultivators in the lotus bone palace here, but now it seems that it may be far more than that.
Someone is infiltrating the lakes and ponds here with demonic energy, causing the lotus flowers that bloom here, as well as the picked lotus pods, lotus roots, etc., to be infected with magical energy.
If ordinary people eat these things for a long time, they will be entangled with demonic energy, and the whole person will soon decline. Young men and women in good physical condition may become magic cultivators, and then the entire Dianxing Town will become demon cultivators. base.
More importantly, here, he discovered Yunchu's aura.
Being able to find Yunchu's trace so easily is also thanks to the Hundred Treasure Talisman that Man Yuxing gave to the three children, which requires their own blood and spiritual power to activate, and the sect will also record their aura, As long as you get Yunchu's corresponding roster, you can feel Yunchu's aura and find him quickly.
When he woke up at Tingxue Peak that day, he found that Chongming had disappeared, and even the feathers and jade liquid he usually packed were taken away. He probably understood that this little thing finally took shape, but there might be some Why don't you want to see yourself.
Maybe he was worried that he would be involved in the disappearance of the spirit beast because of him, so he hid first.
He didn't think much about it, so he went up to the Kongchan Hall, talked with Man Yuxing for more than two hours, and then went down the mountain.
Not only to find the whereabouts of Chongming, Yunchu, Su Cong's green tit, the jade silkworm full of rain stars, and the hundreds of missing spirit beast cubs in Lulu Mountain, these things cannot be left to him to stay in Tingxue Peak retreat.
It seemed that the matter was not aimed at Chongming, not at Lushan, but at him, Shi Xueshu.
It seems that where the matter started, it will lead him to where it is now.
Wupeng Lake, the place where he and Luan Chi met for the first time and finally became Taoist couples, was also the base where the Mozu monks were first discovered by them. Luan Si used cruel methods to train his men and children in the training camp.
Who is going to lure him this time, and what is the purpose of taking so much trouble?With his current appearance, he has neither natal magic weapon nor natal spirit beast, with meager spiritual power and weak body, what is there to be worthy of such a trap.
The boy's footsteps "da da" came from the other side of the boat, and he opened the curtain and was about to pass through the cabin.
He rolled the lotus seeds on the tip of his tongue, bit them open on his teeth, and the fragrance diffused in his mouth.
Bai Chi happened to look over, blinked and asked, "How is it, is it sweet?"
Shi Xueshu smiled and shook her head: "It's really not sweet."
After finishing speaking, he jumped into the lake amidst the boy's exclamation.
The water in the lake in July is not very cold, and the carp have always been swimming happily in it, but they were startled by a person who fell into the water suddenly, and hurriedly avoided it.
The exclamation and noisy voices were isolated from the surface of the water. When Bu Siling fell into the water, he floated beside Shi Xueshu and went forward to explore the way. His eyes opened under the water, and the originally gray pupils now returned to dark and lively. Looking closely, one can even see an imperceptible red in the center of his pupils.
It was as fiery red as the feathers on the Chongming bird.
After that day, Shi Xueshu woke up and found that her eye disease was completely cured. According to legend, the tears of the Chongming Bird can heal the injury like a phoenix, but only for eye diseases.
It’s just that Chongming Birds are born to only know how to play happily, and their ability to empathize with humans is extremely poor. Even if they watch people cry, they will only find it amusing. healing.
But Shi Xueshu obviously found that his memory seemed to have been peeped. His spiritual sense has always been sharp, but he can feel the familiar aura of the person who peeped into his memory, so he is more sure that his eyes must be healed by Chongming.
That guy is crying.
His first reaction was to wonder how sad that person would be when he cried, and whether he was going to scold and cry again.
A hand grabbed Shi Xueshu's belt from behind, stopping his sinking tendency.
Shi Xueshu felt her waist loosen, the belt snapped in response, and the outer robe floated and spread apart in the water.
Turning around, he saw a touch of red clothes, and his dark pupils were staring at him firmly.
Bai Chi chased him into the water, his wrists were wrapped several times by Busi, and he dragged him to the surface of the water. He quickly grabbed Shi Xueshu's robe with his other hand, and with all his strength, Shi Xueshu His robe came off.
The snow-white robe was ripped off from the shoulders in the water, and Shi Xueshu's hands were forced to be pulled behind her back and trapped by the robe.
With no thought of tugging, Bai Chi quickly grabbed Shi Xueshu's robe and hugged his arm.
Shi Xueshu was stuck in the middle of the movement of putting on the robe. Turning around, she saw the red-clothed young man's face was flushed, and he looked at himself begging for help.
Because Chongming Bird's physique is fire, he hates water by nature, and his spiritual power will be greatly reduced after entering the water.
But not to drowning.
It seemed that Bai Chi's condition was not very good, his fair face turned a little red at the moment, but he held Shi Xueshu's arm tightly and didn't let go.
Shi Xueshu frowned, but his hands were trapped in his robe, and Bai Chi was very strong at this time, holding his arm as if grabbing a life-saving straw, which made him somewhat unable to get out.
At this moment, there were constant sounds of people jumping into the water on the surface of the water. Presumably, someone found that they had jumped into the water and hadn't come up for a long time, so they jumped down to save people.
Shi Xueshu was a little helpless, originally planned to sneak directly into the Lotus Bone Palace, it was dangerous there and he didn't want Bai Chi to follow him, but this variable...
Really embarrassing.
He had no choice but to control Busi and plan to drag both of them to the surface.
Busi was summoned to float over, wrapped around the wrist behind Shi Xueshu, and pulled him up.This is good, the other hand that he just struggled out of his clothes was bound again.
Shi Xueshu: ...
Bai Chi couldn't take it anymore, bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes, his hands were like octopus grabbing Shi Xueshu's shoulders, he hugged him tightly and pressed his lips against it.
That trembling tongue licked Shi Xueshu's lips in aggrieved way, as if accusing this person of why he didn't come to breathe out for him.
Shi Xueshu opened his lips and tongue, allowing him to catch the air in his mouth fiercely, and let a bit of spiritual power pass by.
The originally tense and stiff body of the boy who was hugging him gradually softened, and the breath he absorbed gradually changed.
"Hey, I saw it, it's almost sinking at the bottom of the pond, why is it sinking so deep!"
"I'll save it, I'm good at water!"
"No, where are the two of you, I'll be with you!"
There was the faint sound of conversation on the surface of the water, followed by the sound of two or three people jumping into the water.
Busi also pulled Shi Xueshu's wrist up, so that he could be completely seen by these people in just a few breaths.
And see clearly that the two of them are not suitable to appear in front of others now.
Shi Xueshu immediately issued an order, and without thinking about turning the direction down, he stretched out his arms to embrace Bai Chi, and the two fell to the bottom of the lake together.
Bai Chi was already much better now, and he stretched out his arms to wrap tightly around Shi Xueshu's waist, facing the two of them about to dive into the bottom of the dirty mud without any fear.
It's just that he didn't expect that at the moment Shi Xueshu touched the mud bottom, Bu Siling suddenly wrapped her waist around his waist, and the palm was pushed away mercilessly, and he suddenly floated towards the water like this, Shi Xue But Shu disappeared under the water in an instant.
He struggled to keep up, but he couldn't get away from Bu Si Ling, and before he surfaced, a few hands stretched out to fish him out of the water.
Lying on the deck of the boat, the white red brocade robe was wet and stuck to his body, and the white silk silk was wrapped around his waist. He came back to his senses and gasped for breath, surrounded by several people.
"Hey, hey, he hasn't choked on the water yet, and he's still alive and kicking after going down for so long. The young master's water skills are really good!"
"Yes, it's okay to think about that Taoist priest, why didn't we see him?"
The boatman wiped the water off his face, with a worried expression on his face: "Young master, you have scared me. Although this Wupeng Lake is not very deep, it is full of mud and people. No one dares to come here to collect water on weekdays." The lotus root is because I don’t know how many people went down before and never got up again.”
"Yeah, I don't know what's going on with the Taoist priest now. I think the Taoist priest has great powers and good fortune, so he should be fine."
"But I just saw that the young master and the Taoist priest are still together, why are you alone now, young master?"
The other two civilians who seemed to be called in temporarily to help were also full of doubts at the moment.
Bai Chi ignored them, stretched out his hands to support his body and sat up, turned over and was about to jump into the water, but was grabbed by someone with quick eyes and hands.
He turned his head and looked at the boatman coldly, his dark eyes were calm but filled with a deep chill, which made the boatman tremble in fright and let go of his hands.
"Puff-"
He jumped into the water for the second time without any hesitation, and was annoyed by the exclamation and persuasion behind him, but at this moment, Bu Siling on his waist also became stubborn and pulled him to the surface of the water.
Bai Chi stretched out his hand to grab Bai Ling, and sent a message from his spiritual consciousness.
[Pull again and I will burn you]
A cluster of flames loomed in his palm, and it was so hot that Ling shook, and it wrapped around his waist obediently and stopped moving.
He couldn't hold his breath for long, this time his body was born with a sense of fear and disgust towards water, he had to be distracted all the time to resist this repulsion in his body, and swim down quickly.
No one knows where the Lotus Bone Palace is better than him. If Shi Xueshu went down 300 years ago, he would never frown. He would even prepare a table of wine and food on the shore for him to come back.
But now Shi Xueshu has only a small amount of spiritual power left, and he gave some of it to himself just now, and even put the white silk that has produced spirituality on his body, if this continues, he is looking for death!
I really want to scold this person every day, there is a limit to being brave!
Soon, he swam to the bottom of the lake, touched the silt and dived in, but for some reason, the silt that should have dragged people down now repulsively pushed him out.
In this way, he was stunned, and suddenly realized that his current body was a Chongming bird from the inside to the outside, not Luan Chi, the young master of the demon clan!
In the past, he could freely shuttle back and forth in this barrier without being blocked or attacked.
But the current him, on the one hand, cannot be accepted by this enchantment, and on the other hand, he will not know Shi Xueshu's methods to untie the enchantment, and the body of the divine bird makes these magic slimes feel uncomfortable, Naturally, it will reject his approach.
He suddenly felt a little frustrated. Could it be that Shi Xueshu pushed him away because he is currently a mortal young master?
That's right, he is such a good person, naturally he would not watch himself, a "mortal", commit suicide.
Suddenly, a piece of white in front of his eyes shone brightly on the dark bottom of the water. Bai Chi took a closer look, and saw that it was Shi Xueshu whose belt had been torn off by him earlier, and then broke free from the bound robe.
The breath in the chest cavity was running low, and there was some scorching pain in his lungs, but he still struggled to swim to the robe. Fortunately, he didn't understand what he meant, so he helped him reach the robe.
As if he had caught some treasure, he hugged the clothes tightly in his arms. At this moment, Bu Si Ling began to perform his duties seriously, and quickly dragged him out of the water.
Several people on the boat saw him showing his head, and immediately fished him out of the water with all their might.
"Oh, I said young master, you are so impulsive, what's the matter, have you found someone?"
"This Taoist priest either has supernatural powers and has gone elsewhere, or he must be trapped by mud. The mud here is too evil, no one dares to go down easily!"
"However, there are a lot of cultivators in the town today, and we should be able to find a way to find them, but by that time, even the corpses will be cold."
Bai Chi wiped the water off his face, tightly hugged the same drenched robe as him, and said in a deep voice: "The Taoist priest is fine, but he left beforehand. I just watched him go to the other side. Swimmed in one direction."
"Oh, it turns out that's the case, so don't worry." The boatman and the others sighed, "You really have great powers."
"Then young master, are you still swimming in the lake? Or go back to the shore and change your clothes first." The boatman asked.
Several people's clothes are also wet, but now in July, the sun is fierce, and they can dry after a while in the sun. They have made a living on the water all year round, and they have long been used to this kind of life. The delicate little prince needs to change into comfortable clothes.
"Swim, why don't you swim?" Bai Chi pulled the corners of his lips, showing a chilly smile, first twisted the water in the white robe, then got up and twisted the hem of his clothes, wrapping the silk around him. On his own wrist, he walked to the position where the two of them were sitting upright and admiring the scenery.
He sat down slowly, and put the white robe to dry on the table. From the corner of his eye, he saw the peeled snow-white lotus seeds scattered on the ground, so he leaned down to pick them up one by one.
"Master, if you still want to eat lotus pods, I'll pick them up for you, and don't want to drop them." The boatman couldn't help but said.
After all, the employer gave a whole ingot of gold, not to mention picking a few lotus pods, and swimming in the water for fun is no problem.We must know that this kind of deposit is enough for several of them to support the boat for several years.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the boatman winked at the two people beside him, and the three of them were about to come forward to help him pick up the lotus seeds.
"Don't touch it! Mind your own business." Bai Chi only said this in a cold voice, and after dismissing the few people who wanted to help, he lowered his head and continued to pick up lotus seeds, but the discomfort in his words made them feel keenly arrive.
The boatman was terrified. He didn't know why the young master, who seemed to have a good temper before, seemed to have changed suddenly. He didn't dare to say anything and turned around to punting the boat. The two people beside him saw that nothing was wrong. each go back.
The sun is still shining brightly, but it may be dazzling at noon. The surrounding lotus ponds are blowing in the wind, and there are still many people enjoying the scenery on the lake or on both sides of the lake.
Bai Chi leaned on the chair, twisted the hand wrapped around Busi Ling, picked up a lotus seed just picked up, put it into his mouth, and said vaguely.
"asshole."
"Give me back intact."
The author has something to say: The young man in red: Hey, if I don’t tell you, you will never guess who I am!
Shi Xueshu: Yes, I can't guess that you are Chong Ming, let alone Luan Chi.
The vest has never been worn on the body. jpg is talking about you.
