"Why."
With a bitter sigh, Qingyun didn't know what to say, but he was also a little happy in his heart. At least the little fox's attitude towards Long Fushi was much better than towards Yan Nanzhi.
Baizhen City is actually not that big. The main reason for the hustle and bustle is that there are so many dazzling shops that the originally spacious streets are so crowded that there is no room for cars and horses to walk side by side.
He rushed to Changfu with ease. When he passed a preserve shop, Qingyun suddenly stopped. The little fox just thought he wanted to buy some preserves for Yan Nanzhi, and his mouth suddenly opened.
"By the way, Alian, why do you hate Nanzhi so much?"
This is the question that Qingyun has always had in his mind.
Compared to Xiao Luoyi, who has now become an unclear Long Fu Shi, the little fox seems to have a deep-rooted prejudice against Yan Nanzhi.
"Hmph, I don't know. Anyway, I just don't like her. I guess her horoscopes are not compatible with her."
The little fox tilted his head and dragged Qingyun forward, as if he was afraid of buying something for Yan Nanzhi.
Nearing the Chang Mansion, Qingyun saw the maroon red door open, and all kinds of strange beasts hauling cargo came and went in an endless stream. Even the destruction of the Yelan Jade Mine did not seem to affect the Chang family's business.
The young man Qingyun sweating and guiding him outside the door looked familiar. He seemed to be the one who received him when he first visited Chang Mansion. Unexpectedly, he had just appeared, and the young man shouted in surprise:
"Senior Qingyun!"
Before he finished speaking, he turned around and entered the house without paying attention to the long line of strange beasts hauling goods. The young master was stunned for a while.
After a moment, Chang Xu ran out quickly with Chang Linbai, the excitement on his face was beyond words.
"Qingyun, you finally woke up!"
Alian whispered:
"I heard that Chang Xu sent people to the Long family several times to greet you when you were unconscious."
The young master nodded without any trace, quickly raised his hands and said with a smile:
"Master Chang, please be polite. Forgive me that Qingyun was seriously injured recently and cannot come to apologize."
"Apologise? If that's the case, if you don't mind, why don't you two go into the house and talk about it?"
His eyes flashed, Qingyun smiled and nodded:
"It's so annoying."
After saying this, the two followed Chang Xu into the courtyard.
This was the first time Qingyun entered the Chang family compound. After a little observation, he found that the Chang family was far more magnificent than the Long family. He estimated that the spiritual jade was probably more profitable than the spiritual materials.
"Look at Chang Xu's appearance and breath. There is no change at all, and there is no sign of the pressure after the Yelan Jade Mine was destroyed. Do they really not care at all?"
The young master couldn't help but speculate in his mind.
The few people did not go far. Chang Xu took them directly to the spacious middle hall and immediately dismissed all the servants.
"Qingyun, how are you cultivating at the Long Family these days?"
Chang Xu originally asked the young master to take a seat, but Qingyun was not some ungrateful youngster. He shook his head and refused, pulling Alian to sit down below.
"This junior also just woke up today and came here to apologize for the jade mine incident."
The three of them sat down, and Chang Linbai stood with his hands down to serve Chang Xu. A faint smile appeared on the upright and steady face of the head of the Chang family, and then he shook his head.
"I heard Miss Yan and Dan Lin tell each other. It's just an ordinary jade mine. If it is destroyed, it will be destroyed."
"Um?"
As soon as these words came out, Qingyun frowned slightly.
Ordinary jade mine, are you kidding me? But the next moment he seemed to think of something again, and heard Chang Xu continue:
"I know you have a lot of questions, but this matter has nothing to do with the Long family, and it has been found out now."
"yes."
Chang Xu's firm attitude also proved some of Qingyun's suspicions from the side.
However, the head of the Chang family winked to the side again, and Chang Linbai understood and laid out a sealing formation.
"I guess Qingyun, when you come today, you still want to ask about Yelan, right?"
Chang Xu's straight-to-the-point attitude made Qingyun's eyes narrow.
"Yes, Senior Chang is quick to speak. I know this thing is extremely valuable, but I also know that I can't possibly..."
Qingyun clasped his fists and spoke sincerely, but Chang Xu shook his head again, which made his heart suddenly sink.
"The ancient statue has been destroyed, and Yelan has naturally completely disappeared from the world."
"senior!"
"You do not believe?"
"I…"
Qingyun was speechless.
Seeing this, Chang Xu first smiled and stroked his long beard, and then asked curiously:
"I heard from Lin Bai that you want Yelan to save your master?"
"good!"
"Dare you ask him his name?"
Qingyun couldn't help but be speechless when he asked this question. After all, it was just a rhetoric to fool Chang Linbai. He was not trying to save his master!
However, seeing that the young master looked like he was having trouble telling a lie, Chang Xu did not continue to ask further questions and instead said:
"Actually, Qingyun, although I don't know why you were trapped in the formation of the jade mine that day, you finally got out of the trap, right?"
"Yes, this is thanks to the jade token you gave me."
The young man thanked me sincerely.
If it weren't for Chang Xu's family head token, he might have become Qingxutian's production machine for Ye Lan like Ye Xiao.
"Hey, it's my fault. After all, Yelan is too precious. If I had invited you to Chang's house earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer so much in the jade mine."
"This... Qingyun doesn't understand what you mean."
With a laugh, he asked the young man to take out the jade token directly.
"Now that you've been there, don't you think the formation on this jade plaque looks familiar?"
"What! Could it be... could it be!"
Qingyun was so shocked that he almost dropped the pear-shaped jade token with a shake of his hand.
"Shh..."
Chang Xu rarely smiled and gestured with his mouth, but the more he did this, the more shocked Qingyun became.
With a wry smile, the young master lamented:
"Hey, I can't find anything even after I've worn iron shoes. It takes no effort to get here. I really..."
After hesitating for a long time, Qingyun didn't know what to say about himself. Chang Linbai could only gloat over his misfortune and whispered:
"Unlucky guy."
"snort!"
The owner's cold snort instantly silenced poor old Lin Bai.
"Senior, I don't understand. Qingyun is just a casual cultivator. He has nothing to say, and I met you by chance. Why do you treat me like this?"
"I said last time that Mr. Shi and I have a huge kindness. Although you don't admit it, he has always regarded you as his beloved disciple. Fortunately, he gave Ye Lan to you in advance, otherwise what would I really do now? I can’t get anything out of my hands.”
With joy falling from the sky, Qingyun felt like his heart was going to jump out of his chest, but what he didn't understand was that even if Old Shitou saved Chang Xu's family, he couldn't hide it from Qingxutian and give him the last remaining ancient jade Yelan in the world. Bar?
But now he couldn't care so much. Without saying a word, Qingyun knelt down and bowed down, but Chang Xu, who had quick eyes and quick hands, used his spiritual power to hold him back.
"No way, Qingyun, you are too polite."
"Wo Cao, am I being polite? This is the Ancient Jade Night Lan! It's something that both Jiulong Lao and Lord Tianwei are jealous of!"
The young master screamed crazily in his heart.
After being a little confused, he regained his composure, and Qingyun found that Chang Xu was also looking at him in a trance.
"Senior, even though I won't receive any reward for no merit, Yelan is of great use to me, so Qingyun accepted it shamelessly. If you have any requests, just ask for it, and I will do whatever it takes to get through fire and water!"
Qingyun said sincerely.
"Well, let's do this. If you see Mr. Shi again in the future, say hello to him for me, and by the way, please tell him that Chang Xu will always remember his teachings and kindness."
"It's that simple?"
"Well, it's that simple."
Qingyun couldn't believe his ears. It seemed that Chang Xu regarded Lao Shitou as his teacher more than his benefactor.
All this happened was so dreamy that even Alian couldn't believe that Qingyun had actually taken one step ahead of those powerful men and obtained the legendary ancient jade Yelan early.
But the facts were in front of him, and there was no need for Chang Xu to lie to him. The two of them kept asking and answering questions for a long time. The huge surprise made Qingyun unable to remember exactly what Chang Xu asked and what he said.
At the end, the head of the Chang family, dressed in crimson, stood at the door and bid farewell to the two of them with dignity. By the way, he arranged for poor old man Lin Bai to take them to the best restaurant in the city for a drink to show his respect for the landlord. friendship.
In fact, not only Qingyun and Alian were in disbelief, but Chang Linbai was also in disbelief.
I remember that when he presented Qingpo to the young master, he vaguely remembered that there seemed to be an extremely precious secret treasure in the clan, which was specially designed to treat the injuries of the soul. However, this was a top secret and no one knew about it except the family heads of the past generations.
But now the head of the family actually told Qingyun about Yelan's secret in front of him. What does this mean? Chang Linbai, who is already very deep in the city, naturally has a sense of balance in his heart.
Just as he was about to catch up with Qingyun, who had a confused look on his face, Brother Chang was stopped by the spiritual message of his master.
"Lin Bai, no matter whether he comes to Baizhen City again in the future, remember to leave a fire talisman for him."
"Yes, head of the family!"
Brother Chang nodded as he was told and looked at Qingyun Qinghui's back. The smile on Chang Xu's face faded little by little. There was reminiscence, loneliness and helplessness in his voice, but more of it was an inexplicable joy.
"Do you feel that due to Lin Feng's rise recently, I have become more and more strict with you, and your original position has long since changed hands?"
"Lin Bai doesn't dare."
"It is true that your talent is not as good as Lin Feng, but if you want to be the head of a family, it is far from enough to have cultivation qualifications. However, you have something better than Lin Feng."
Even though it was a spiritual message, Chang Linbai could still hear the hidden meaning of Chang Xu's words.
"Are you asking me to make friends with Qingyun?"
He asked straight to the point.
"Yes and no."
Chang Xu shook his head.
"His background is much more complicated than you guessed. It is fate that you two can become friends. But once the purpose is mixed with fate, this bond will be broken sooner or later. Remember."
"Yes! Lin Bai is taught!"
"Go ahead, the Chang family's future depends on you."
Chang Xu looked at the astonished Chang Linbai with burning eyes, and a heartfelt smile once again appeared on his square face.
"Three Ultimate Evil-Sealing Formations, Senior Sister..."
This time, Chang Xu, who was muttering to himself, did not look at these young people again, but turned his gaze to the irregular clouds in the sky.
