Li Kuisheng pushed the door open and entered the room. There was no one in the room. There was an unfinished letter on the table in the outer hall, which read: Brother Kuisheng, I'm leaving. If we meet again in the future, could you please call me "Qier" again?
Li Kuisheng was instantly frightened, and the food in his hand fell all over the floor. He never expected that Li Qier would run away from home, and hurriedly left the village to chase her, only to return disappointed at dawn.
Ji Beichen knew about this and did not go back with Zhao Bai'er. He had been meditating in his room. When he heard that Master Li had returned alone, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. After running around all night, Li Qi'er was probably already out of Wuyou Town. Just as he was thinking about how to persuade Master Li, he heard Li Kuisheng's footsteps pacing back and forth from outside the door.
Ji Beichen was aware of his hesitation and concern, so he dressed and washed normally. After finishing, he pushed out the door and greeted Li Kuisheng as usual: "Good morning, Mr. Li."
Li Kuisheng hurriedly sorted out the mess on his forehead, cupped his hands and said, "There was so much neglect yesterday, where is General Zhao?"
When Ji Beichen saw Li Kuisheng apologizing for leaving early yesterday, he went straight to the point and asked with concern: "As soon as you left the village yesterday, Brother Zhao was clamoring to leave. I wonder how Miss Qier is doing?"
"She left a letter and left." Li Kuisheng said casually, but his heart was as chaotic as the sword pool after forging a sword. The input spirit stones and black iron gradually melted, and the hot liquid was poured into shape, leaving only unknown residues that covered the entire bottom of the pool, blocking the water outlet tightly.
Ji Beichen thought for a moment and calmly advised: "Master Li, don't be anxious. Since Miss Qi'er left a letter, it means that she didn't leave without saying goodbye. Is there any place she particularly wants to go?"
"I've searched everywhere we went together, but she's not there." After Li Kuisheng finished speaking, he lowered his head in despair. This time he lost Li Qier. If Li Qier refused to see him, I'm afraid it would be a nightmare in this life. Neither of them can see each other anymore...
Thinking of this, Li Kuisheng took a big step back in confusion, staggering and almost falling. It turned out that sending Li Qier away that day and the two never seeing each other again in this life was so painful. He really shouldn't have made an impulsive decision to hurt his heart.
Ji Beichen hurriedly stepped forward and helped Li Kuisheng steady, thinking to himself: If Yan Yueli was hurt by him, what would she do?
——
The setting sun dyes the horizon red, adding a bit of vitality to the gray brick and gray tiled Wuyou Town. Yan Yueli hugged her chest with her hands and stood on a handsome peak not far from the town. Her flaming red dress was flying freely, and her charming face was hidden under the veil.
"Palace Master, Ji Beichen woke up early yesterday morning and is fine." Wang Yuanting stood behind Yan Yueli. He could not understand Yan Yueli's behavior more and more. If she really liked Ji Beichen, she would find a way to keep him by her side again. That's fine, why do you need to do these unnecessary things?
Yan Yueli breathed a sigh of relief and secretly noted the matter down. Just because he was fine doesn't mean he would let Bai Shuxiang go easily. The debt must be recovered: "Is Junior Sister Shen back?"
"Not back to the clan yet." Wang Yuanting frowned and shook his head. Shen Qingxi recalled the past the day before yesterday and couldn't calm down for a long time. He directly sent the person back to the Soul-Living Valley. There has been no message from the Ghost Doctor Tomb yet. He is also worried and anxious.
Yan Yueli didn't ask any more questions, looking like he was hesitating to speak. Finally, he hesitated and asked: "Where is he, that junior sister?"
Wang Yuanting raised his eyebrows and regained consciousness, and said sternly: "Palace Master, Lu Xinrui has been led out of the town by Junior Sister Qingxi. Now the two of them met Lu Aotian outside the city. Do we need our people to take action?"
Yan Yueli curled her lips. This small Wuyou Town was really lively. She wanted to see what else the Huan Mie Sect could do: "Keep an eye on them first, and then take action if necessary."
"Yes." Wang Yuanting accepted the order with his hands raised. He turned around and was about to turn over when he saw the energetic Shen Qingxi approaching with a sword. She was almost the same as the sad and fragile her yesterday.
"The Lu Aotian you are talking about is the traitor of the Cangxu Sect? Is Lu Xinrui in danger?" Shen Qingxi came over in a hurry with her sword. When she heard Wang Yuanting talk about yesterday's incident, she listened carefully because it involved Lu Xinrui's safety. , she asked a few more questions without permission.
When Wang Yuanting saw that the person coming was Shen Qingxi, he immediately smiled and his eyes were shining. He was about to greet her and greet her with greetings, but suddenly remembered that it was not time to talk about himself, so he stopped smiling and asked, "Junior Sister Qingxi, are you feeling better?"
"It's already fine. Thank you senior brother for sending me back to the valley that day." Shen Qingxi smiled. Her gauze and pink clothes were blown away by the wind, like a delicate flower shining on the water. She really fulfilled the sentence: moving like a rabbit, as quiet as a virgin. .
Wang Yuanting suddenly felt his eyes light up and his chest felt hot. He swallowed unconsciously and whispered back: "That's right."
Yan Yueli couldn't bear to listen to the "courtesy words" between the two of them, so she asked directly about the business: "Senior Sister Shen almost got into trouble this time, so it's better to try to make the difference. Is the poison I sent yesterday ready? "
Shen Qingxi was stunned for a moment, remembering the order that Yan Yueli sent to the Ghost Doctor's Tomb yesterday, and immediately replied sternly: "Come on, come on, there are still some medicinal materials that are hard to find."
"You must hand it over to me in two days, otherwise you will be severely punished." After Yan Yue said this eloquently, he sacrificed his magic weapon and drove away with his sword, leaving Shen Qingxi and Wang Yuanting to "talk to each other."
——
Outside Wuyou Town, Lu Xinrui looked at the eloquent Lu Aotian with disgust, feeling extremely anxious in her heart.
"This time the Cangxu Sect went to Qiongzhou with the Yuyin Sect for training. Your senior brother and I gained a lot. It's a pity that Junior Sister Lu didn't go with us. What a pity! What if..."
Lu Aotian boasted for half an hour without getting tired, but Lu Xinrui couldn't hold it any longer. She pouted her little mouth and interrupted: "Senior Brother Lu, we are in a hurry to return to Wuyou Town and cannot delay any longer."
Lu Aotian subconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, raised his hand to touch his cheek, concealing the joy in his heart, and asked with concern: "Is there something urgent about Junior Sister Lu?"
Lu Xinrui nodded hurriedly and replied without thinking: "Senior Brother Ji..."
Just when Lu Xinrui said that Ji Beichen was in Wuyou Town, Yan Nianxin, who had been standing silently at the side, took over the topic and said, "Senior Brother Lu, can he return to the mountain and recover his life?"
Lu Aotian immediately showed an unhappy expression, but due to Lu Xinrui's presence, he could only shake his head and replied: "No rush, I just want to go to Wuyou Town for a walk, why don't we go together, senior brother, I can protect you better."
Lu Aotian's wishful thinking was good. As soon as Lu Xinrui said this, he had to take him with him. Yan Nianxin was not willing to fulfill his wish. He immediately said righteously: "Senior brother Lu may not know that the date of the sword trial meeting early next year has been changed. We are here This is why I came down the mountain this time. Now that we are employing people, it would be better for Senior Brother Lu to return to the mountain as soon as possible, otherwise the master and my adoptive father will know about this and blame him..."
Yan Nianxin's words were both soft and hard. Even Lu Xinrui could hear the thorn in his words, but she didn't know why he was suddenly so hostile to Lu Aotian?
Lu Aotian didn't want to give up this great opportunity easily, but he had tasted Yan Mingxiu's power. Now he could only retreat in order to advance. He rolled his eyes, immediately handed over his hands and said with a smile: "In this case, senior brother, I will take my leave now." .”
The two watched Lu Aotian leave, and Lu Xinrui asked her doubts: "Senior Brother Yan, why did you interrupt me just now? Is there something about Senior Brother Lu that I don't know about?"
Yan Nianxin did not deny it, but solemnly replied to Lu Xinrui: "Thank you, Junior Sister Lu, for trusting me. I will take you back to Wuyou Town."
Lu Xinrui nodded in agreement and walked in front with cheerful steps. It wasn't that she didn't want to ask what happened, but she felt that Ji Beichen's matter was more important.
Not long after wielding the sword, the two landed in an abandoned courtyard in the town. Yan Nianxin looked solemn and silent all the way. Lu Xinrui just thought that he was tired these past few days and wanted to live with him after finding Ji Beichen. One night at the inn allowed Yan Nianxin to relieve his physical fatigue.
Yan Nianxin once again used the magic weapon to renew the fan, and whispered to Lu Xinrui: "This place is only a hundred meters away from the Hejie Inn. Junior Sister Lu can go there on your own. You and I will say goodbye. Take care."
"This...I..." Lu Xinrui felt that these words were sudden, and she didn't know how to reply. She stumbled and didn't ask her what she was thinking. When she came back to her senses, Yan Nianxin had already left with a fan.
——
Yan Nianxin returned to the outside of the town where he parted with Lu Aotian with his sword, took back the rejuvenation fan in his hand, took out the talisman paper, bit his finger, and drew complicated runes on the talisman paper like a flowing stream, and then threw it into the air, muttering something in his mouth: " Chase!"
I saw the talisman paper thrown in the air immediately standing in the air, looking left and right like a small energetic person. Finally, the talisman shone with a faint golden light and flew towards a dense forest outside the town without hesitation.
Yan Nianxin adjusted his breathing, followed the talisman slowly and slowly, and soon stopped in an abandoned temple.
Yan Nianxin waved his hand, and the little talisman paper turned back obediently. He breathed lightly towards the energetic talisman paper, which immediately lost its spirituality and fell into the palm of his hand.
Yan Nianxin didn't hesitate too much, and just as he was about to raise his legs and step in, a hearty word came directly into his ears, which was obviously a message from his spiritual consciousness: "Brother Yan, don't be too fine. If you believe me, don't go in."
Yan Nianxin heard that the person who conveyed the message was Wang Yuanting, the "Judge in Green Yi". Although Yan Nianxin had doubts, since Wang Yuanting was a close friend of his adoptive father Yan Mingxiu, he must believe it. He immediately replied through the message: "I believe in Judge Wang."
Wang Yuanting, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help but frown, and once again sent a message with his spiritual consciousness: "No, just call me Brother Wang."
Just as Yan Nianxin was about to ask why, Wang Yuanting appeared not far from the ruined temple. Yan Nianxin immediately ran over. The two of them confirmed that there was no one around, and then they began to talk with confidence.
"Brother Wang, there are no outsiders here, but it doesn't matter." Yan Nianxin said and handed over his hands. Although he was eager to know about Lu Aotian, he still had to understand etiquette.
Wang Yuanting turned his wrist lightly, unfolded the black iron fan in his hand, and said sternly: "Since Brother Yan regards me as one of his own, I will tell you directly. That day Ji Beichen was seriously injured and fell off the cliff, it was Lu Aotian who collaborated with the Huan Mie Sect. This was I saw it with my own eyes, and the Yuyin Sect was also involved."
