Bingqing remained calm and waited for his next words.
"I was deep in thought in the quiet night, carefully taking stock of everything from the time we met until now. I felt like I had fallen into a carefully woven trap. You went to Lei's house to steal a knife, and we met by chance. You successfully attracted my attention with 'Yu Xuechen'. "
"When you were picking orchids, you were injured by datura poison. I drove the poison away for you. You came up with a temporary plan and pretended to have lost your footing and fell into the poisonous flowers, creating an opportunity for us to have close contact. But you didn't expect that Lingxue would sacrifice his life. Save, it’s self-defeating. Of course you refused to give up. You expressed your feelings to Lingxue, preconceived ideas, and used sisterhood to force Lingxue away. And last night, what kind of magic did you use to make me lose myself and mess up my temperament? "
Bingqing smiled bitterly and said, "So I am so unworthy in Brother Yue's eyes?"
"I just want to know what's your conspiracy behind doing this?"
"Yes, I have a conspiracy, a big conspiracy." Bingqing said as tears fell from her cheeks. "That day, a handsome young man, like a jade tree in the wind, climbed to the top of Mount Emei. He was free and elegant, and his eyes instantly pierced through the sky. My heart. I like him and I can't live without him. I use all my means to realize a big conspiracy, which is to stay with him forever and grow old together!"
Murong Yue's expression froze, and his eyes were unpredictable.
"Brother Yue dislikes me and wants to leave me. I don't blame you for this. If I dare to pursue happiness, I can bear all the pain it brings!"
After dawn, Murong Yue went up to the Golden Summit again, and Bingqing followed behind him. The two of them had their own thoughts and were silent. When he went to the mountain gate to explain his intention, someone quickly went to inform him. After a while, the nun from yesterday came and said, "I said everything I needed to say yesterday. Master said she would not see you!"
Yue said seriously: "I want to beg Master Qinglian in person and ask her to betroth my disciple to me. If she doesn't see me, she won't leave."
"But Senior Sister Lingxue has quit the sect and gone to travel around the world..."
"It's her I want to marry, Ni Bingqing..."
Let's talk about Lingxue. On that day, he left a letter, kowtowing three times and bowing nine times to the golden dome, thanking his master for his upbringing. Thinking about how I have brought shame to my master, I am heartbroken. She was wandering around without a care in the world. The world was so vast that she didn't know where to stay.
All the way west, she just wanted to get as far away from Emei as possible. On this day, she came to a barren mountain. The colorful and pleasant scenery also reminded her that autumn was coming.
There is a thatched house and a small fenced courtyard on the mountainside, adjacent to the mountain road. There was a middle-aged aunt with a square scarf on her head and a blue floral apron. When she saw Lingxue approaching, she waved to her, "Young lady, you've been on a journey, come and have a drink of water and rest."
Lingxue came in at the invitation, her expression dull. The aunt asked: "Girl is young and beautiful, why is her face so sad?"
The words touched Lingxue's pain point. She turned pale and waved her hands repeatedly, "Auntie, Moti, Moti!"
The aunt smiled and motioned for her to sit down, "Where is that girl going?"
Lingxue shook her head sadly, "The world is so big that there is no place for me, don't mention it again!"
The aunt changed the subject and said, "There is newly dug well water here, which will just quench your thirst." She opened the water tank cover, picked up a spoon and scooped out water. She repeated it several times, but the bowl was still empty.
Lingxue asked in confusion: "If you use a fence to fetch water, the water will leak. No matter how many times you fetch water, it will be in vain."
"That's well said! In one life, the vegetation and autumn are all empty. To realize the 'emptiness' is great enlightenment and great wisdom!"
Listening to something strange, Lingxue asked in surprise: "Who are you?"
The fence in the aunt's hand turned into a golden whisk, and with a wave of the wind, the thatched cottage and courtyard disappeared, and the decaying grass under the feet was slightly yellow. "Color is emptiness, like water in the fence, which will eventually leak out. Is it your first time to experience a calamity?" Can you feel discouraged? The long journey of practice has just begun!"
"Who are you?"
"Qingyu'an Jingyun, a poor nun, is of the same lineage as Emei. Senior Sister Qinglian sent a message from thousands of miles away to tell you, and the poor nun came here to save you."
Lingxue knelt on the ground and clasped her hands together, "Master, Lingxue is ashamed. I would like to convert to Buddhism. Please accept me as your disciple!"
"From now on, your Dharma name is Moti..."
One month later, it was late autumn, the mountains were red, the woods were dyed, Songyue Villa was filled with joy, the second young master Murong Yue got married. The bride is as beautiful as a flower. She comes from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. She is a disciple of Emei, so she is well matched. It was just that the time was short and the wedding was extremely simple, leading to a lot of speculation.
Newlyweds, full of love, naturally don't realize that time flies by. When the first winter snow fell, the eldest brother Murong Yuo came back from a long journey. The first thing he did was find him, "Brother Yue, everything is ready. We have discussed taking action in the middle of winter. This time I made a special trip to report to my father."
The more excited he is, the more he is gearing up, ready for a big fight.
The elder brother changed the subject, "It's just that you just got married, so why don't you go?"
The more he heard about it, he suddenly became more heroic, "What did the elder brother say? A good man has his ambitions in all directions, how can he be tied down by the personal affairs of his children? How can the younger brother miss such a feat of becoming famous?"
Yu sighed softly: "There are many difficulties and dangers ahead, so you'd better hide it from your sister-in-law first, so as not to worry her!"
Half a month later, the Murong brothers packed up and set off. It was announced to the public that this trip was due to the invitation of the Linghu family to search for strange beasts in Zhongnan Mountain. Bingqing's tears were like a chain of beads, reluctant to leave her. Murong Yue said goodbye to his beloved wife, whipped his horse and galloped away.
It was the middle of winter, the snow had not yet melted, and Yuling Lake was completely frozen, as flat as a mirror. Standing on the ruins of Tianjian Temple, looking at Tianjian Peak from a distance like a jade pillar holding up the sky, everyone was filled with emotion.
A group of eight people stopped to look into the distance, headed by Brother Murong. Linghu Yuan, Nangong Yan and Shang Gongxing were on both sides. They were all outstanding disciples of their generation.
The person behind him has a broad face and a slight beard. He is Zhang Qingyuan, a disciple of the Tianshi sect and the younger brother of "General Dayan", the governor of the Imperial City. He is known for his strength.
Next to him, Lai Wu had sharp eyes, a powerful aura, and a domineering attitude. The person next to him is Xuxing, a disciple of the Laoshan sect. He is thin and proficient in the Five Elements Escape Technique and is also good at healing wounds.
These people are all dressed in white, blending in with the snowy scenery. Linghu Yuan distributed the dark red pills to everyone, "This is a pill specially made from 'Wangyoucao' and 'Blood Jade Plant', which can resist the poisonous cold in the valley!"
Murong Yu said: "Brother Nangong, please do a careful reconnaissance before entering the valley!"
Nangong Yan nodded, took out a silver paper charm, held it out in the wind, and turned into several white birds that flew into the valley. Taking advantage of the reconnaissance time, Murong Yu said seriously: "Once you enter this valley, life or death is unpredictable. If you want to regret it, you still have time."
Lai Wu smiled heartily, "I regard death as a homecoming, and I am willing to work with my brother to defeat the devil with all our strength!" Everyone echoed boldly and high-spirited.
Shangguan Xing counted with his fingers and said, "It is the right time to enter the valley and the yang energy is rising. This is an auspicious time. Unfortunately, there are only eight people. If we add one more person, we will definitely win!"
Before he finished speaking, a figure came like the wind, also dressed in snow-white, "With brother's good words, if you add me, your fortune will be perfect."
Everyone looked confused, and the man cupped his hands and said, "I am Ni Bingqing of the Emei sect, and I am willing to work with my brothers to defeat the devil!"
Murong Yue was shocked and pulled her aside, "Madam, why are you here? This trip is extremely dangerous, so don't mess around!"
Bingqing said sternly: "It is impossible for Bingqing to let my husband take risks alone. I want to share life and death with my husband!"
The couple couldn't argue for a while, and Murong Yu had to step forward to smooth things over, "Since my brothers and sisters are here, let's go together? One more person will give us more strength!"
Bingqing was in high spirits and made a face, "Brother is still reasonable." She bowed to everyone, and Linghu Yuan gave her pills. At this moment, several snow-white birds returned and turned into a silver map, which was passed around to everyone and remembered in their hearts.
Afterwards, everyone filed in with solemn expressions. On the cliff at the entrance of the valley are written several bright red characters "Snow Burial Valley", with four small characters below "Those who trespass will die". Lai Wu snorted coldly, jumped up, and gently stroked the cliff with his right palm. Along with the thick black air, stone chips fell one after another, and no trace of the words was left. Everyone secretly admired him, it seemed that his "Eight Desolate Palms" power had reached the advanced level.
Looking at the valley again, the terrain is open, with vast snowy fields and no trace of human beings. Xu Xing asked: "Do you have any action plan?"
Murong Yue smiled contemptuously: "Just move forward, kill gods when you meet them, kill Buddhas when you meet them!"
Continuing forward, Tianjian Peak is several miles away. The snow under our feet is getting deeper and deeper, making it increasingly difficult to walk. At this time, there was a loud rumble deep in the valley, like thunder rolling from the sky, and then a surge of snow, like thousands of horses galloping, gathered into an unstoppable torrent, pouring down the valley. This momentum swallows everything and crushes everything.
Murong Yu's expression changed, "No, there's an avalanche. Let's join forces to defend ourselves."
Before he could finish his words, the torrent had already arrived, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth, like a wall of snow several feet high, pressing down on the top. Murong Yuefei stepped forward, and the "Spike Flash" sword energy in his hand shot out ten feet, splitting a gap in the snow wall. Nangong Yan raised his hand and issued an "earth-shaking" talisman, and the explosive energy wave shattered the tide.
The torrent passed by, the flying snow dispersed, everyone was safe and sound, and everyone let out a sigh of relief.
"Be careful, there's someone under the snow!" Murong Yu shouted, and suddenly he took action, and sword shadows flew all over the sky, turning the snow in front of him into a hedgehog. A snow-white figure broke out of the ground, and the shadow sword walked along the bones until it pierced the figure and turned into flying snow and dissipated.
While he was in shock, a powerful force in the distance tore the snow apart, spreading outward like lightning, from far to near. "Be careful, it wants to separate us and defeat us one by one." Yu shouted.
The crack reached to the feet and suddenly exploded, throwing everyone into the air. Murong Yue immediately wanted to catch Bingqing, but a white shadow came out of the snow beside him. He quickly exchanged a few moves with him, and after being stabbed, it turned into flying snow and dispersed.
"Form a group nearby and defend carefully!" Murong Yu shouted. As he got closer to Zhang Qingyuan, he flew over to defend him back-to-back. Several more figures emerged from under the snow and launched a lightning attack. For a moment, the flying snow rolled in, obscuring his vision.
It only lasted a short time. The flying snow dispersed and the enemy's shadow disappeared. Murong Yu shouted: "The terrain is not good for us. Quickly retreat to the mountainside courtyard and discuss countermeasures." Everyone quickly fled to the courtyard and counted the number of people. Finally, I was shocked to find that Ni Bingqing disappeared...
