My Taoist companion just wants to welcome and refuse

Xia Qi stroked his chin and recalled that at the previous banquet, the headmaster Wen mentioned that Chang Yao had imprisoned evil cultivators, so Qing Yan probably knew who the enemy he was talking about was.

Even though the matter of meridian poisoning was kept from Qing Yan, Qing Yan is a good person to confide in other matters, whether it is as the head disciple of Cang Li who is far-sighted and well-known, or a Taoist companion who is willing to chat with him and talk nonsense.

Xia Qi was silent for a while, but did not hesitate: "...Actually, I was very angry when I found out that he was not dead in Yunxia Town."

Qing Yan quietly looked sideways at him, signaling that she was listening.

"Not only because of what happened to me when I was young..." Xia Qi lowered his eyes, and his voice was so soft that there was no trace of resentment towards the past. Instead, he whispered softly like a bedtime conversation, "What I saw in Yunxia Town, I realized that I am not The last child who was treated like that. How many people would need to be sacrificed to refine such a magic weapon... the entire town of Yunxia Town also died in his hands."

Thinking of this, he subconsciously frowned: "Before I became a demon hunter, I thought that monsters stood opposite the human world, and that mortals and monks would share the same hatred. But in the past few years, many evil cultivators have died under my sword. Only then did I know that there are monks who are using monsters for profit in the chaotic situation, and are doing crooked ways."

Demon hunters also had shady deals, but they never cared about the lives of any innocent people.

When he said this, he suddenly stopped and looked at Qingyan seriously, his plain tone was solemn because of his slow articulation, which was beyond doubt.

"I won't let them go."

Whether it's Bai Xuan or the person behind the scenes.

Not only because of revenge, but also to promote karma.

Qing Yan's eyes never left him, his eyes were calm, and his low voice seemed to make a promise.

"We will go the same way, none of them will be able to escape."

Xia Qi rolled his eyes and smiled, and felt a burst of warmth pressing on his chest, warm and smooth.

He has never had the opportunity to talk about this with anyone, and Qing Yan is always the one who can be honest, whether it is talking about trivial matters, or talking about evil plots, or even the heart, he can get from Qing Yan. Respond with confidence.

Xia Qi thought about it, and suddenly asked in a soft voice, "Bai Lan, are you happy to have memories about me back?"

He fell in love with Qing Yan in the past. I don't know how Qing Yan fell in love with him, so he came to express his love first, but the reason is definitely not related to the demon hunter.

The wind, frost and ups and downs along the way in the past five years seemed to turn him into another person. Occasionally, he recalled the youthful and cute appearance when he met Qingyan, as if he was looking at someone who had nothing to do with him across the river.

Not to mention the Qingyan that was forced into memory.

Now that he has opened up his complete and true self in front of Qing Yan, will Qing Yan regret it, or feel bound by memory?

Qing Yan didn't seem to have expected such a question, and paused for a while, as if thinking.

After a while, he said, "You are different from what I imagined."

Xia Qi's heart sank, he wanted to know the answer, but Qing Yan's words still broke Xuanqi's heart into pieces.

Qing Yan hadn't finished yet: "You are different from anyone I know, I vaguely understand the choice I made back then."

Xia Qi's eyes flickered: "...what choice."

Qing Yan's face was still calm, but he didn't look at him, his eyes fell on the glazed lamp not far away.

"Choose to be a Taoist partner with you."

He has to admit that Xia Qi is unique and special, he is contradictory and vivid, firm and sincere.

At first, I tried to treat him with my own way of thinking and principles of doing things, but found that the inexplicable feelings related to him didn't seem to follow any reason.

Xia Qi was taken aback when he heard the words, his broken heart was immediately tied up by winding vines, and colorful and swaying flowers bloomed in the cracks.

His eyes lit up, and he rushed over while he was talking: "Bai Lan, can I understand that you like me too?"

Qing Yan looked back at the eyes full of joy, and weighed the extremely unfamiliar word repeatedly in his heart, and gradually felt a little strange palpitation.

Sea of ​​Consciousness added to the confusion at this moment, suddenly fragments of the picture flashed by, and it was vaguely recognized that he was hugging Xia Qi, whispering these two words in his ear...

Qing Yan's breath lightened in vain.

No matter how slow the two walked, they still arrived at the door of the meeting hall.

The door seemed to sense the arrival of a visitor, and it opened slowly, revealing Wen Yuxie and Fu Leshan who were waiting here, looking at them inexplicably, and then all eyes fell on Xia Qi, with a strange expression, clearly written "Why are Cang Li's chief disciples and demon hunters related again?"

Xia Qi had no choice but to put away his untimely joy, and immediately stood up straight and coughed, reminding himself that the business was important.

He knew that his appearance was too abrupt, so he couldn't help but cut to the chase and said, "I'm going too."

Fu Leshan glanced at him with his usual expression: "Where are you going?"

Without waiting to be greeted, Xia Qi found a place to sit down and pour wine.

"Of course it's not the place that was arranged for the banquet just now, otherwise there wouldn't be this private gathering."

Fu Leshan finally waved his hand angrily: "No, this trip is dangerous. Have you recovered from your injuries? Why are you getting involved?"

Xia Qi raised his eyebrows when he heard the words. He wasn't surprised that Fu Leshan would refuse, but he didn't expect such a reason: "I won't make mistakes indiscriminately, I can use Xiaoshan's reputation as a guarantee."

As soon as these words came out, there was an eerie silence in the room, and even Qing Yan couldn't help but glance at him.

Xia Qi suddenly realized that Xiaoshan's reputation might be bad, and explained mellowly: "...I mean, with reputation as a guarantee, Xiaoshan will not screw up any business, let alone hold back."

Just as Fu Leshan was about to say something, Wen Yuxie, who was idly leaning on the pillar, raised his hand. Although his posture was still casual as usual, his expression carried a bit of calm and insightful dignified demeanor.

"It's not that I don't believe you. Demon hunters have always had a deep understanding of monsters. It would be safer if we go together. But is Xiaoshan really going to be involved in this muddy water?"

Xia Qi thought deeply when he heard the words, now he is the only one left in Xiaoshan to stay in Changyao, so all decisions will naturally represent Xiaoshan's position.Fu Wan told him to keep an eye on the movement, and didn't let him jump into the center of the vortex.

He put it another way: "This time is regarded as off-court support, and it only represents my personal wishes."

Wen Yuxie was a little surprised, and couldn't help but wonder what he was planning: "Then what are you going to do?"

Xia Qi smiled and did not shy away from it: "We will meet old friends."

Wen Yuxie hesitated for a moment, seeing that his expression was not as happy as "reunion with old friends", he shook his head as if giving up, "Go, go, Xia Qishi will know how to measure himself, and will not put himself in danger."

Xia Qi pondered keenly, what he said was not quite right, shouldn't it be to guard against the evil witcher with unknown intentions, why are you still worried that he will put himself in danger?

Could this Chang Yao's hospitality be too friendly?

Xia Qi's joining was approved, and Qing Yan, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "Is this going to investigate the sect's secret realm?"

As soon as these words came out, the other three were taken aback.

Xia Qi looked confused: "Isn't it a mineral vein?"

The arrangement of the banquet was mainly to explore the spirit veins, and he thought that this trip was nothing more than a mineral vein.If not, then the previous arrangement was all misleading to Shifang Pavilion who was not present at this time.

After all, Chang Yao was wary of Shifang Pavilion.

However, the previous layout was agreed by everyone, and the mine veins with abundant aura were indeed the most likely place to complete the main formation, and Shifang Pavilion did not see any flaws.

Qing Yan can at best guess another place based on the private seal on the banquet sticker, how can he accurately guess that it is a secret place?

Wen Yuxie didn't hide his surprise: "How did senior know?"

"At first it was just a guess," Qing Yan said calmly, "If the people behind the scenes were more careful, they would choose places that most people can't set foot in immediately, so as to delay the time of discovery. And the direction of Bai Xuan's escape just now is Chang Utai's biggest secret."

Xia Qi was taken aback for a moment, knowing that Qing Yan had stopped talking.

Each sect has many secret realms, and the big secret realms that most people cannot set foot in generally contain secrets of the sect or things that cannot be known to outsiders.

Naturally, it was impossible for Chang Yao to let everyone in to investigate with great fanfare. Firstly, it was too dangerous, and secondly, Shifang Pavilion had previous convictions.

That's why I invited a Qing banquet to discuss it in private, and then went to the secret realm together.

Wen Yuxie didn't hide anymore after hearing the words: "This secret realm may be older than me. It was sealed when the master was still there, and it was strengthened the next year. I only went to the outer periphery. It is rumored that some demons that cannot be dispelled are sealed in the secret realm. , is also related to the Shen Xinghai incident 100 years ago."

Xia Qi rubbed his chin, he had indeed heard the rumors that the ancestor of Chang Yao disappeared in the accident of Lingying Mountain.There may be traces related to Lingying Mountain in this secret realm, which is why even the head of the previous generation kept it secret.

It is indeed not possible for any sect to enter, especially the Shifang Pavilion that destroyed Lingying Mountain a hundred years ago.

Fu Leshan saw that they had made up their minds, so he had no choice but to say: "The secret realm was sealed by me and your master. Recently, I have vaguely noticed that the secret realm is not stable. This time, I will lead the way and go in to find out what happened. .”

Wen Yuxie shook his head: "Mr. Fu, you have other arrangements. The passage of time in the secret realm is weird, I don't know how long it will be delayed, and matters between sects still need to be settled and coordinated. I'm not good at this kind of thing, so let's put fighting give it to me."

Fu Leshan almost didn't bring it up, he looked at Wen Yuxie, who was leaning on a pillar and drinking... He really didn't look like a master.

He was about to say something, but he held back after thinking about it.

He watched this girl grow up since she was a child, and now she is the sole and uncompromising head of the sect.

What's more, there will be a Qing banquet on this trip, so he can rest assured.

He stroked his beard with a cold face, glanced at Wen Yuxie and Xia Qi angrily, nodded to Qingyan with a calm expression, and left without saying a word, a little annoyed.

Xia Qi was at a loss, no, what's the matter with him?

Wen Yuxie looked at the back of Fu Leshan leaving, and sighed: "When I just became the head, there was some turmoil in Changyao, and Mr. Fu worried a lot. In recent years, the number of demons has increased sharply. He is running around to eliminate demons. The serious injury has not healed, and I have given up retreat..."

Shocked, Xia Qi plucked a bunch of grapes and ate them: "Is it okay to talk about the secrets of this kind of sect? Forget about Cang Li, demon hunters can listen?"

Wen Yuxie smiled instead: "Then, do you have bad thoughts?"

As soon as these words came out, Xia Qi and Qing Yan were taken aback.

This tone is too familiar, it doesn't even look like a joke among friends, but rather like teasing children...

Xia Qi thought about the repeated mistakes of the two Changyao executives, chewed on grapes and asked: "I'm thinking, Mr. Fu and the three of us don't look alike..."

Both Wen Yuxie and Qingyan looked at him with questioning eyes.

Xia Qi pondered: "There must be some kindred relationship..."

Wen Yuxie almost choked on the wine: "According to the age of ordinary people, if I get married, my children will be as old as you. How can I force myself into a family?"

Xia Qi rubbed his chin, Wen Yuxie really didn't know his age.But Fu Lao is not here, and a certain head has already begun to speak with virtue...

Most of Xia Qi's thoughts were divided by Putao, and he didn't notice that Wen Yuxie's eyes fell on his cuff without saying a word.

Qing Yan at the side watched it quietly.

In fact, the first time he saw the cuffs of Xia Qi's light yellow clothes, he recognized the winding embroidery as the runes of Chang Yao.
