Ten days passed in a hurry, the scorching heat gradually began to dissipate, and the feeling of autumn entered the world.
The small courtyard at the top of Haoqi Mountain is still filled with the fragrance of flowers. Flowers and fruits coexist. Three or two white flowers on the gardenia tree sway gently. Water-like light and shadow sweep across the cheeks. A pair of black and white eyes open slightly, looking slightly tired. He stretched and let out a few murmurs of enjoyment.
Liu Ernian woke up from the consciousness space and took over his body. He first looked around the surrounding environment, but unfortunately he couldn't find the figure he wanted to see.
"Da Nian, is my little apprentice still sleeping?"
"She woke up a long time ago and went out to play with some fat guy this morning."
"Da Nian, didn't you say you wanted to hide her cultivation and try not to let her go out? Why did you let her go out with outsiders?"
Liu Nian's expression turned from unhappy to worried, and then said: "And she is still so young, what if she encounters danger?"
"Then what do you think I should do? Restrict her to Haoqi Mountain for the rest of her life, just because of a word. She is still young! She is easily in danger!"
Liu Nian was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "What a great idea. This way we can protect her!"
"You...you think she is you! She has no desires and needs, she is stupid and dumb! She is like a pig! She is a bird that yearns for freedom!
Do you think a bird that yearns for the sky is imprisoned in a cage by yourself under the pretext of protection? Can such protection still be considered protection?"
Liu Danian sat on the sea of consciousness, looking at the seemingly real and illusory sky, and couldn't help but recall the past.
Isolation, loneliness, and imprisonment were the feelings Liu Dayian experienced when he first came to this world. The feeling of completely losing his freedom was like the softest knife in the world. He didn't want that little girl to feel this feeling.
Liu Ernian touched his head and said something after a while: "Da Nian... what do you mean by bird?"
I almost forgot, Liu Erhan has lived in Haoqi Xianmen his entire life and has never seen any birds and beasts outside!
Last time I called him a pig and he asked me what a pig was.
Liu Danian sighed deeply, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "Second Nian, the little girl smiled happily when she went out."
"I see."
Liu Nian nodded slightly under the tree, and the worries in his heart disappeared. He sat cross-legged under the gardenia tree, closed his eyes and entered the state of cultivation.
In the house, Wan Yu Bing Miao was lying in an open coffin. The sunlight passed through the window sill and shone on a face as white as snow. A bit of blood appeared on the cheeks, and the transparent skin reflected the blush and warmth.
He rubbed his eyes with slender fingers and turned over to avoid the sun, wanting to sleep a little longer. He was completely unaware that he was only covered by a white gauze.
The mountain forest under the noon sun is full of tree shadows and luxuriant flowers and plants.
A giant copper ship flew overhead, causing many sect disciples to look up.
After all, these days are much duller, and I haven’t seen such a big thing floating in the sky for a long time.
Bai Qiuming stood in front of the door of the assembly hall with his hands behind his back. He was dressed in a glazed black robe and his short black beard exuded the majesty of a superior, making people afraid to offend him easily.
The bronze boat stopped in front of the sect's meeting hall. Three Chiyang Sect monks floated down from the boat and bowed to Bai Qiuming one after another.
He Wen drove the flying disc and took Zhao Tubao to a standstill high in the distance, looking in the direction of the council hall.
"Sister bumpkin, look at the man in black robes, he is my master, Bai Qiuming."
Zhao Tubao squinted his eyes and climbed forward on the flying disc again. He looked hard with his big black eyes, but he couldn't see clearly what the person He Wen mentioned looked like!
In order not to embarrass Hewen, Zhao Tubao imagined his master's appearance, and then said with a smile: "Your master looks so gentle!"
He Wen recalled Bai Qiuming's appearance. He had a short beard and raised eyebrows, a cold and solemn face, and was extremely majestic. He seemed completely unworthy of the word gentle. He could almost be described as ruthless and ruthless!
"Sister bumpkin, let me take you closer to have a look."
The Assembly Hall is located on the main peak, towering into the clouds, an unreachable peak. If you have not reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and learned the flying technique, you will not be able to reach the front of the Assembly Hall.
Outside the assembly hall, two children were bent down, like two little penguins, sneaking forward with small steps, and finally hid behind the copper boat, sticking out their two little heads to look into the assembly hall. .
Zhao Tubao's chin was placed on He Wen's head, and the two ponytails accompanied by the fragrance of flowers dangled on both sides of He Wen's cheeks, tickling his cheeks and tickling his heart.
He Wen didn't know why, but every time he got close to Zhao Tubao, he would feel an inexplicable feeling. Sometimes his heartbeat would speed up, and sometimes he would feel itchy. It was strange, but also very comfortable.
Unknowingly, He Wen had a silly smile on his face, as if he was suffering from some serious illness. He dismissed all the external disturbances, leaving only contentment in his heart.
Suddenly, a shout came from behind: "Where did you come from, dirty kid? Get out of here and don't touch our Chiyang Sect's copper boat dirty."
This startled Zhao Tubao and He Wen who were already peeping. They turned their heads and saw a gorgeously dressed little girl standing behind them, with two slender eyebrows raised rebelliously. A pair of cold eyes showed no trace of intimacy.
Zhao Tubao knew this look.
Every time she and her father went home carrying wheat stalks, the ladies and gentlemen sitting in the sedan would look at her like this. If she didn't get out of the way in time, they would be scolded repeatedly, and some would even beat her.
The image of his father kneeling down to apologize came to mind, and Zhao Tubao was about to pull He Wen away.
He Wen did not disobey Zhao Tubao's pulling force. As he left, he looked at the little girl who made the noise.
The clothes of the disciples of the Haoqi Immortal Sect are all simple. The thin and light-colored clothes are very different from the bright clothes of the Chiyang Sect. He Wen can naturally tell that the little girl in front of him is from the Chiyang Sect.
For a moment, He Wen felt displeased. He was in his own sect, so how could he endure the reprimands from other sects?
In the entire sect, except for the fact that his master Bai Qiuming could endure the reprimand, no one in the sect dared to speak back!
As He Wen left, he said jokingly: "What an uneducated girl. Why don't you get on the boat quickly and don't dirty the ground of our Haoqi Immortal Sect."
It's really better than scolding, the elders of the Haoqi Immortal Sect who have been bickering for a long time are not cowed by anyone at all!
Zhao Tubao, who was originally worried, couldn't help but sneer when he heard He Wen's scolding.
Gao Yue, who had always been favored and willful, had never been reprimanded by anyone other than her father. Now that she was being insulted and ridiculed by others in person, she naturally couldn't bear it.
"You two stop!"
Zhao Tubao and He Wen both ignored each other's intentions and continued to walk away from the copper ship.
"I told you to stop, do you hear me?"
The two of them knew very well that staying to argue with such a person was too much trouble. He Wen followed Zhao Tubao's wishes and left. When he turned around, he stuck out his tongue at Gao Yue and made a face.
Seeing this reaction, Gao Yue was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while. "You! You guys!"
For a long time, Gao Yue stood alone, tears streaming from her eyes. When she was in the sect, almost no one disobeyed her, and anyone she displeased would be punished.
Recalling that Zhao Tubao and He Wen ran away with playful expressions on their faces, Gao Yue suddenly felt that she had been greatly wronged.
Inside the meeting hall
An old man dressed in fine clothes was sitting on a stone chair. Behind him stood two middle-aged male cultivators, their bruised cheeks covering them with a layer of anger.
Opposite him, Bai Qiuming was sitting upright in a black robe, with an extremely solemn atmosphere emerging, as if he was waiting for the other party's response.
Du You said: "Forty million spiritual stones to redeem one person! Bai Qiuming, your request is a bit too much!"
Bai Qiuming's majesty did not change, he stared straight at the three people of Chiyang Sect, his expression was not angry, and he said calmly: "According to the agreement, you should have been here ten days ago, but you have not been able to visit until today. In my opinion You Chiyang Sect don’t take this matter to heart at all!”
Zhengshan and Zhenghai were about to step forward to explain, but Bai Qiuming's eyes swept away, and the solemnity from the superior came over them, and the two of them instantly lost their courage.
Bai Qiuming stood up, looked down at the Chiyang Sect and the group, and said indifferently: "You must remember that your Chiyang Sect is here to redeem people, and redeeming people should look like redeeming people.
If you don’t agree, you can leave! "
If you don't agree, you can leave... The words echoed in my ears.
Du Youwen clenched his fists tightly and kept muttering Bai Qiuming's words. A wave of anger came to his heart, and his wrinkled face became more ferocious. Although his old eyes were withered, they flashed a fierce glare from time to time.
If he hadn't been afraid of Bai Xing and that old madman, he wouldn't have allowed a Jindan monk to dominate in front of him.
The next moment, the anger dissipated from Du You's face, and Du You smiled accordingly. "Okay, just 40 million spiritual stones to redeem one person!"
After saying this, Zhengshan Zhenghai took out a dozen storage bags from his sleeves and handed them to Du You. Du Youyou stretched his hand towards the storage bag on his waist with a painful look on his face.
Du You knew clearly that he was indeed at fault first, and there was nothing he could do about the other party's open mouth. What's more, there is Bai Xingjie, who has terrible fighting power. If he can't find a suitable reason, he can only tolerate it.
Seeing this, Bai Qiuming ordered the deacon beside him to bring Gao Hong and Du Wu.
Just as the deacon opened the door barrier and went out, a little girl got directly in.
"Yue'er, didn't I tell you to stay well on the copper boat! What's wrong with you coming here?" Du You stood up and said seriously.
Seeing that Grandpa Du You, who had always loved her, was so harsh on her, Gao Yue immediately burst into tears, her face full of pear blossoms, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Du You panicked for a moment and hurriedly stepped forward to lean over to comfort him, his eyes full of endearment.
"Yue'er, who is bullying you? Don't cry. Don't cry. Grandpa is here."
Gao Yue looked at the kind-faced Du You with tears in her eyes, and cried: "Just now, two people from the Haoqi Immortal Sect sneaked up on our Chiyang Sect copper ship, trying to steal something.
When I caught him in action, he not only refused to admit it, but even beat me. "
Gao Yue seemed to have recalled some experience, and she threw herself into Du You's arms and started sobbing. Du You had no choice but to pat Gao Yue's back gently and comfort her.
Du You has always regarded Gao Yue as his own granddaughter and never wanted her to suffer the slightest injustice at any time. Feeling Gao Yue crying so sadly in his arms, a murderous intention surged into his heart, and he completely ignored her. If nothing else, he just wanted to cut the two guys who bullied his precious granddaughter into pieces.
Hearing Gao Yue's words, Bai Qiuming's aloof face trembled slightly, and he explained: "Disciples of the Haoqi Immortal Sect have always been of good nature and will never do such outrageous behavior. There must be some misunderstanding here."
"There is no misunderstanding! This matter was said by Yue'er herself, so it can be false."
Du You picked up Gao Yue, his Nascent Soul realm mana suddenly ready to be unleashed, his black and white hair swaying constantly, and the entire meeting hall fell into an atmosphere of concentration.
"Today, you Haoqi Immortal Sect won't give me an explanation. Don't blame me for hurting someone!"
