Inside and outside the Bixiao Sect, thousands of miles are covered with ice and thousands of miles of snow is drifting.
As Li Xiuping finished speaking, all the disciples of the Bixiao Sect were instantly wiped out, with no bones left. A great sect of cultivating immortals was reduced to nothing in such an instant!
Li Xiuping walked towards the Bixiao Sect's main hall and said, "Let's spend the night here tonight."
After speaking, he looked at the four people and said, "Look around to see if there is anything to eat."
Then he said to "Huo Ling Zhenren": "See if there is anything valuable and take it with you."
"Master Huo Ling" smiled and nodded, then turned around to search for the Bixiao Sect. This "Master Huo Ling" was particularly good at and willing to do this kind of thing. Even Li Xiuping was willing to fall behind.
Soon, "Huoling Zhenren" led the four people to get some food and drinks. Everyone sat around the table. In comparison, there was a feeling of desertedness. Maybe it was because so many people had been killed just now, or maybe because it was already the depth of winter, so the cold wind hit and everyone felt extra cold.
The little girl with braids would look up at Li Xiuping from time to time. Every time she looked at Li Xiuping, she seemed to have something to say, but in the end she didn't speak.
At this time, she looked up at Li Xiuping again, but before she could speak, Li Xiuping took the lead and said: "In a moment, you and I will collect the bodies from the people down the mountain, and bring Erni's parents up the mountain to find a good place to bury them." Bar."
"Huoling Zhenren" and the blue water unicorn nodded, then stood up and left directly, and then flew away in the air.
Li Xiuping looked at Yang Erni and asked, "Do you have any relatives?"
Yang Erni shook her head and said: "Only my parents, and now my parents are gone..."
As he spoke, tears were already welling up in his eyes.
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Then you can follow me from now on."
Everyone was shocked, especially Yang Erni.
Li Xiuping continued: "But following me will definitely lead to a lot of hardship. If you are afraid, you can refuse."
Yang Erni asked: "Can you teach me the magic of immortality?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "Yes, but I can't guarantee whether you can learn it or not."
The little girl stood up immediately and knelt down facing Li Xiuping.
The little girl named Yan'er also said at this time: "I want to learn too, I want to learn too."
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "I'm going to a place far, far away, and you want to go with me? Besides, your mother probably won't be able to leave you."
The little girl looked at her mother, and the woman was lost in thought at the moment, as if she was thinking about this matter seriously.
Layman Qingming frowned at this moment, but did not speak.
He could tell that this little girl with braids didn't have much talent. Compared with the other little girl, she was completely different. However, Li Xiuping wanted to take this little girl with him and teach her to practice. This It really makes layman Qingming a little puzzled.
Although this little girl has nowhere to go, in fact, with Li Xiuping's status and means, he can easily find a place for her to live and settle down. I dare not say anything else, but it is no problem to have good food and clothing for the rest of her life.
When "Huo Ling Zhenren" and the blue-water unicorn came back, it was already late at night. The woman, the maid and the two little girls had already gone to bed, so Li Xiuping asked them to bury Yang Erni's parents so as not to The little girl woke up and saw that she was sad again.
After doing all this, Li Xiuping said to the two of them: "You guys should go and have a rest. I'll be alone for a while."
"Master Huo Ling" nodded and said, "Young master, please rest early."
After the two of them left, they stood alone in front of the two new graves, looking at the falling snowflakes, but they couldn't even light the candles.
Li Xiuping stayed alone for a while, and the snow became heavier and heavier. Li Xiuping turned around and walked towards the front mountain. Before he entered the house, he saw the woman walking over.
Before Li Xiuping could speak, the woman handed the neatly folded mink fur to Li Xiuping and said, "Thank you very much, sir."
Li Xiuping was stunned, and hurriedly took off the fox fur from his body and handed it to the woman.
After the two exchanged their cloaks, the woman said, "Can I have a few words with the young master?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Of course, Madam, please come in."
He said and opened the door. Of course Li Xiuping could see that the woman's return of the mink fur was just a reason, otherwise she could do the same tomorrow instead of returning it so late.
After the two entered the house, Li Xiuping hesitated for a moment, but still did not close the door, simply to avoid suspicion. After all, it was so late, and it was somewhat uncomfortable for a man and a woman to live together in the same room.
After Li Xiuping sat down, he took the lead and asked: "Madam, do you want me to bring Yan'er with me?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the young master."
Li Xiuping poured her a cup of tea and asked, "Madam, are you willing? After all, after she leaves me, it will be difficult for you to meet each other in the future."
The woman looked a little sad and sighed: "After all, it is the flesh that fell off the body, so I must be reluctant to part with it. But now that the war is in chaos, our orphans and widows are living precariously. Even if I am reluctant to part with it, I don't want her to follow. I suffer."
She looked up at Li Xiuping and continued: "But if she can follow the young master, at least her life will be safe."
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "I have something unclear. The woman must have been born well, so why did she become a refugee? And Yan'er's father..."
He seemed to realize that his words were inappropriate, so he stopped talking.
The woman smiled and said, "Young master, don't worry about it. There's nothing that can't be said. If you really want to know, I can just tell you."
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Not really, I just think it's a little strange."
He continued: "To be honest, this girl Yan'er is really talented. If she really embarks on the path of spiritual practice, her future achievements will never be low. Moreover, this child and I seem to have an inseparable fate, so Madam If you really make up your mind, I will teach you carefully."
The woman nodded and said: "Although we have not been together with the young master for a long time, the slave family can see that the young master is a trustworthy person. The slave family is relieved to hand over Yan'er to the young master. It's just that Yan'er has been spoiled since she was a child. Being naughty by nature, I’m afraid it will bring a lot of trouble to the young master.”
Li Xiuping waved his hand and said: "That's okay, but what are your plans for the future? Do you have a place to stay?"
The woman nodded and said: "After Yan'er follows the young master, I will buy two acres of land anywhere and settle down first."
Li Xiuping nodded and didn't ask too much. Everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell. There are obviously many helpless things about this woman, so there is no need to get to the bottom of it.
Li Xiuping thought for a while and said: "I happen to have a few acquaintances in the south, so my wife will follow me down south first. Then I will ask them to settle my wife well, so that Yan'er can feel at ease while practicing with me."
The woman was stunned for a moment, then stood up and saluted, "Thank you so much, sir."
Li Xiuping waved his hand and said: "Since Yan'er wants to practice with me, then I will be her master. This is what it should be."
The woman said: "It is Yan'er's blessing to be favored by the young master. If you trouble the young master so much, the slave family doesn't know how to repay the young master."
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "It is enough that Madam can trust Yan'er to me."
The woman saluted again and said: "Then I won't disturb the young master. The young master should rest early."
Li Xiuping nodded and stood up to see them off.
After that, Li Xiuping stopped worrying about this matter. According to Li Xiuping's idea, he first took the woman south with him. After arriving at Tianchan Temple, he asked the people of Tianchan Temple to settle the woman down and stayed there by himself. Let the monks from Tianchan Temple help take care of some spiritual stones, which can ensure a worry-free life.
Early the next morning, Li Xiuping brought the little girl with braids to her parents' grave. After saying a simple farewell, everyone left the Bixiao Sect and continued southward.
Borrowing the things from the Bixiao Sect, everyone replaced the carriage. The woman, the maid and the two little girls were sitting in the carriage, while the rest were walking. Because the snow was already thicker than yesterday, they could not go faster. The key was Not long after leaving, Li Xiuping himself was very tired.
After leaving the Bixiao sect, refugees were rarely seen again, and some of the cities they passed through were not affected by the war, but one could hear some information about the war in the north.
Because of the sword of Master Qingming, the entire Chi Qiu Kingdom's plan was disrupted, and they could only make adjustments. The sects on the mountain that were originally very noisy have now become quiet. Obviously, regardless of whether there is this battle or not, With the participation of the demons, there should be no fight until Li Xiuping and others leave Chi Qiu Kingdom.
But now one thing is certain, that is, there may be demons involved behind this war, but there are no demon cultivators in Chi Qiu Kingdom that can threaten Li Xiuping. From this, it can also be concluded that those who practice the secrets of demons There may be many human monks, but there are certainly not many like Star Observation Tower, and even fewer can cultivate beyond the integration stage. Otherwise, Li Xiuping's current situation is tantamount to the demons' best opportunity to get rid of him, and the demons have no reason to let go of such an opportunity.
As they traveled south, the little girl's mood began to slowly recover. Whenever he had some free time, Li Xiuping began to teach the two of them how to practice.
The little girl named Chu Yan is indeed a genius that even Master Qingming and Li Xiuping admire. She can basically learn the things Li Xiuping gives her very quickly, but what surprises both Li Xiuping and Master Qingming is that Although the little girl with braided braids named Yang Erni had no talent, according to Li Xiuping's teachings, she didn't fall far behind Chu Yan. In some areas, she was even better than Chu Yan.
It can be seen that this girl usually works hard, and these efforts must be made when others cannot detect it.
Shuhei has never taught others how to practice. In fact, he has not even understood his own practice. However, some introductory things can be taught. What's more, there is a Qingming layman who is in the integration stage by his side, so the two little girls have received a lot of teachings. , In fact, it can already crush many disciples from major sects.
Li Xiuping really had no intention of accepting disciples before. The reason why he accepted the two little girls, apart from that incident, was actually because Li Xiuping met these two little girls three times, so he felt that this was all for some reason. God willing.
As for how long he can live, that's secondary. Anyway, if he really dies, he can give the two little girls to the layman Qingming, or ask the layman Qingming to send them to Guanchao Academy. It won't have much influence on the two little girls because of him...
