In the dense forest, Xing Dejun and Zhou Qiniang expressed their longing for each other and discussed how to deal with it in the future. Unknowingly, they were in the middle of the moon.
Zhou Qiniang took a risk and sneaked out, and she didn't dare to stay for a long time, so the two of them came out reluctantly.
Just as they were about to say goodbye, they saw Jiuniang looking at them not far away, with Liu Xiaolou following behind her.
"Jiu Mei..." Zhou Qiniang's face showed a hint of panic, but then she quickly regained her composure.
Jiuniang sighed softly, glanced at Xing Dejun, and said, "Is this Xing Dejun? Seventh sister, go back."
Zhou Qiniang nodded and smiled at Xing Dejun: "I'm going back."
Xing Dejun was very worried and said to Jiuniang: "Jiuniang, I heard Qiniang mention you. Although you and she are not flesh and blood, we are close relatives..."
Jiuniang said: "Xing Dejun, I will pretend that I didn't see what happened tonight, but I won't do it next time. This move is extremely dangerous, not only for you, but also for the seventh sister. I don't know if the seventh sister has mentioned it to you. She will get married in half a year, and Mr. Zhou personally arranged it last month. If the news about your nightly meeting becomes known, the consequences will be disastrous."
Xing Dejun nodded, cupped his fists and bowed: "Thank you Jiuniang. Qiniang told me to send Elder Zhao to Jinting to renew the string."
Jiuniang said again: "This matter was brokered by the elder Qingyu Zonghou."
The Qingyu Sect is the main family that the Zhou family is attached to, and the Jinting Sect that is married to them is also a famous sect that occupies the blessed land of Jinting Mountain. The marriage between the two major sects in the world is indeed not something that Xing Dejun and Zhou Qiniang can resist.
Zhou Qiniang held Xing Dejun's hand tightly, looking at each other in silence.
Liu Xiaolou came close to Mr. Xing De, watched the two girls leave, and said, "This Jiuniang... what is her background?"
Xing Dejun shook his head: "How did I know?"
"Didn't I say that Qiniang often mentioned it?"
"I never heard her mention it."
"Well... she's pretty reasonable anyway."
Xing Dejun asked: "When did she find out?"
Liu Xiaolou said: "An hour ago, Qiniang arrived shortly after entering the forest. I was shocked at that time. I had no choice but to break up with Zhou Qiniang for a long time on behalf of my senior. She was finally moved by his deep affection, and she Waiting outside the forest with the juniors. Don't worry, she promised to keep it a secret for you and won't report it."
Xing Dejun nodded.
Liu Xiaolou suggested: "If you do it once, you can do it a second time. No matter what she says, she won't do it next time. As long as she doesn't report this time, she will be standing in the same pit as us, and she won't be able to push her away. Next time It would be more convenient to ask her directly for help in contacting Qiniang, much more convenient than me as a fake nephew. This time it was so suspenseful that the junior was directly arrested and taken into the Zhou family. Fortunately, he was not questioned by the Zhou family. In the future, it may not be..."
"Xiaolou, thank you very much."
"The senior's business is the junior's business, it's a trivial matter! Come back next time, it's not far anyway, just over a hundred miles away. Then...are we going back to Taoyuan?"
Xing Dejun did not return to Taoyuan, but took Liu Xiaolou to wander around several places north and east of Dongting for several days, looking for other materials for refining the formation plate.
"The Linyuan Black Stone Array is an illusion array. Its main purpose is illusion, so hallucinogenic materials are indispensable. The most illusionary thing in the world should be the colorful bird's crown, but as far as I know, this bird It can only be seen in Weiyu Xianghe Sect’s Spirit Bird Garden, so don’t think too much about it.”
"Weiyu Xianghe Sect? I heard that it is one of the top ten sects. The cave it occupies is home to countless rare birds and animals. It's like a fairyland. I wonder when I will be lucky enough to be able to enter Weiyu Mountain to have a look?"
"The Cave Heaven is different from the Blessed Land. We don't even know where the door of the Cave Heaven opens. What kind of Cave Heaven should we enter?"
"Yes, if the colorful finch doesn't work, where's the tiger-eyed frog? Where's the nine-foot butterfly? Can you find it? Forget it, it seems very expensive..."
"Have Xiaolou heard of these phantoms? Tiger-eyed frogs are sold in Tianmen Shanfang City, frog poison powder costs ten to fifteen spiritual stones for one coin, and nine-foot butterflies can be found in Shanzhoufang City, no matter how big or small. Each one costs twenty spiritual stones."
"Senior, let's be honest, what other materials can be substituted?"
"The big toad and the green toad are mixed together, and the hallucinogenic effect is equally good. This is the secret of our sect, and the small building must not spread it to others. Therefore, we came to Dongting Lake to catch the big toad."
"Where is Shangshouqing? It's winter now, and mushrooms don't grow in the mountains."
"I've got some dry powder for getting started, and it's in the refining room."
"I see...Senior mentioned the sect just now. Which sect is it from?"
"I am the thirteenth generation leader of the Ziji Sect."
"Is there anyone else in the door?"
"My profession has always focused on single transmission..."
"I understand. In fact, I am also the head of a sect. I am the fifth generation head of Sanxuan Sect."
"By the way, why do you call it Sanxuanmen? Which Sanxuan?"
"This is our secret!"
"Refining the formation disk is also the biggest secret of my Ziji Sect!"
"Okay, okay...actually, it's the mixing of incense, the combination of yin and yang, and the practice of Xuan Gong. They are collectively called the Three Mysteries."
"...Isn't this dirty and dirty..."
"Senior, you can't say that! There is no distinction between people, and there is no distinction between good and bad Dharma. My teacher often said that there are thousands of avenues, and I will choose one of them. What is superior and inferior? The key depends on the character of the practitioner! Again, Good skills, if they are raped by evil people..."
"Okay, okay, I made a mistake."
"This is not a matter of making a mistake or not. This is a question of whether the concept of practice is right or wrong. If the seniors practice with this idea, in the long run, they will inevitably fall into the wrong path!"
"Haha... Okay, I'd like to be taught... don't look so angry... Ziji Sect and Sanxuan Sect are both very good!"
"Of course, it sounds mysterious... By the way, senior, why don't our two factions form an alliance and help each other! We at Wulong Mountain often do this..."
"is this okay?"
"Why not? You and I are both the masters, so can't it be decided with just one word?"
"No, I mean, is it interesting?"
"Senior, do you think it's boring?"
"What do you think?"
"...Forget it...if it's not interesting, then it's not interesting..."
"Shh..."
"ah?"
"Listen... this is the cry of the Dongting Toad... Tonight went very smoothly. I found it as soon as I came here. When I came here before, I had to search for it for many days."
"Senior, how many should we catch?"
"Catch a few more, and only take the little bit on the skin. Anything less will not be enough! Be careful, this thing is very alert and hard to catch..."
"Senior, please stay less...Senior, please stay back...and further away..."
"How...is it okay...how long will it take...the small building?"
"Okay, come and pick it up! One...two...three..."
"Is this... a dead toad?"
"They're alive, they're just confused... six... seven, is that enough? These toads live in nests, don't they? Save time."
"Is this the secret of your Sanxuan Sect? Mi Xiang?"
"Yes, what do you think, senior?"
"I haven't seen you burning incense..."
"Why don't you call it a secret book? Senior, do you think my Sanxuan Sect's methods are still ruthless?"
"Amazing……"
