A white crane landed in Fairy Guhuo's cave, then raised its neck and let out a loud chirp like a song.
Ruoyun noticed that the pressure of spiritual energy that was so powerful that it was difficult to increase suddenly completely enveloped the surrounding area. When she walked out of her small building in a panic for no apparent reason to check, Fairy Guhuo was rushing out of her small building. When he came out of the cave, he saw Ruoyan and drank:
"Hurry up and follow me on your knees to greet your master."
Only then did Ruoyan realize who was coming. At this time, Fairy Guhuo had already bowed to the white crane, and she quickly knelt down behind her master.
"Gu Ci pays homage to the master." Fairy Guhuo said with great respect. She knew that the master must have come down from Yuhu Mountain today to solve the Qiu Huahe matter, which made her feel unusually uneasy.
"Greetings to Master." Ruoyuan also said respectfully.
An old man got off the back of Bai He. He was Qiu Long, the master of Fairy Guhuo. He walked up to Fairy Guhuo, looked at her, and then said:
"Everyone, get up, girl, are you Ruoyan?"
"Master, that's right."
"Well, go and find him in Qiu Huahe's cave and ask him to come here to meet me."
Ruoyuan knew that his uncle Qiu was being banned by the sect. He didn't know if he would be able to see Qiu Huahe if he went like this. When Fairy Guhuo saw him, he quickly said:
"Just go, the sect must have arrangements, go quickly."
"yes."
After hearing this, Ruoyun didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly took a few steps before flying up and heading straight for the cave in Qiu Hua He.
"Gu Ci, is Tang Ping still hiding in that boy's cave in Kangfu?" Qiu Long asked.
"Yes..." Fairy Guhuo returned uneasily.
"Well, then go and bring her over. I want to take a look at the child and the white fox." After saying this, Qiu Long went straight to Fairy Guhuo's cave, along with the white crane. He followed step by step.
"yes……"
Fairy Guhuo peeked at the words and saw that her master seemed to be coming with anger. She did not dare to disobey the master's orders, but she did not know what decision her master would make next until the gate of her cave was blocked. After slamming the door shut, she realized that she couldn't hide from it. The ownership of the white fox would definitely come to an end today. Thinking of this, she sighed, and then she flew up and headed towards the Houtu Temple.
…
Starting from his own cave, the closer he got to Houtu Temple, the stronger the fire that had been burning in Fairy Guhuo's heart.
The reason is simple. When it comes to keeping Tang Ping's Xiaobai, she was completely excluded by Tang Bonian.
She didn't know what Tang Bonian's plan was beforehand. After Qiu Huahe started to snatch Tang Ping's Xiaobai and Kang Fu had a conflict, she went to find Tang Bonian, but was rejected by Tang Bonian. outside the door. Of course Fairy Guhuo understood that this was Tang Bonian's understanding of her difficulties, and he did not want her to be caught between her master and her senior brother and make an awkward choice.
Tang Bonian is considered a mature man. He knows very well the person and temperament of Fairy Guhuo. Based on her gratitude to her master, once Qiu Long asks for the white fox for his son, Fairy Guhuo will inevitably fall into a very serious situation. He was in an embarrassing situation, so he simply ignored Fairy Guhuo in his advance planning. Moreover, if Fairy Guhuo knew how he would deal with Qiu Huahe, she probably would not be very willing and would not do it from beginning to end. By letting her participate, the master-disciple relationship between Fairy Guhuo and her master can be preserved.
But Fairy Guhuo was angry because she had no control over the whole thing. That night, Tang Bonian broke into Qiu Huahe's cave and started a fight, which almost alarmed the entire sect and completely publicized the matter. After going out, it was then that Fairy Guhuo realized what Tang Bonian's plan was.
Fairy Guhuo didn't agree with Tang Bonian's approach, but there seemed to be no other way, because she couldn't let Qiu Huahe let go of Tang Ping's white fox.
For the first time, Fairy Guhuo, who was well-known in the world of spiritual cultivation because of her advanced cultivation and outstanding methods, felt a sense of panic that she was completely unable to control things. This was the source of her anger.
Soon, she arrived at Kang Fu's cave.
Well, I have to say that Kang Fu re-opened the cave very quickly. Previously, the gate of his cave had almost turned into a giant cave entrance. Now, looking at it, it has restored its original grand appearance, except for the fact that it is directly opposite the gate of Kang Fu's cave. Except that the ground on the opposite side is still barren of grass, the Kangfu Cave Mansion is almost intact as ever.
Kang Fu, on the other hand, placed a large armchair at the entrance of his cave, with a teapot and tea on the table next to it. He was nestled in the armchair and puffing away at the smoke from a short cigarette bag.
"Hey, Senior Sister Guhuo." Seeing Fairy Guhuo falling down, Kang Fu stood up with a smile.
"You have repaired so fast here, it is no different from before." Fairy Guhuo said.
"Hey, that guy Qian Chao helped me rebuild it. I don't have the ability myself. Senior sister is here..."
"Hmph, your and Tang Bonian's plan worked. My master came down from Yuhu Mountain and wants to see Tang Ping."
"Hey, okay, they are all inside, I'll call her." Kang Fu said and turned around to enter the cave.
"Wait a minute, Kang Fu, my master has come forward to see Tang Ping. Is Tang Bonian so relieved? If my master insists on getting the white fox, won't his plan completely fail?" Fairy Guhuo said. .
"Hey, don't worry, your master is a little different from your senior brother. Do you know what it is?"
"What is it?"
"Well, your master is different from Qiu Huahe when he was cultivating alchemy. Well, your master is more shameless than your senior brother. That's the difference."
Fairy Guhuo said angrily:
"Is this Tang Bonian's plan? After struggling for a long time, he bet all his money on the fact that my master will definitely value his face? What if this time my master, regardless of the ridicule of others, will definitely take away Tang Ping's Little fox, are you too busy with this calculation? And... this possibility is not impossible!"
Kang Fu smiled again and said:
"Senior Sister Guhuo, don't worry. These are for the people in the sect. In fact, what is Old Man Tang's plan... Hmm... Could it be that Senior Sister has forgotten what he said about the 'Fifth Ancestor' before?"
Only then did Fairy Guhuo come back to her senses. After thinking for a moment, she stared at Kang Fu and asked:
"You mean, Patriarch Mo from Yuhu Mountain will... talk to my master about this matter?"
"Hey, I don't know about that. The idea came from Old Man Tang. I just promised to help him protect his granddaughter."
"Huh, okay, if you don't tell me, I'll ask him later."
Soon Tang Ping came out. Fairy Guhuo looked at her disciple and sighed, saying:
"Let's go back with me. Your master has come down from Yuhu Mountain and wants to see you."
Seeing the uneasiness on his disciple's face, Fairy Guhuo said again:
"Don't worry, for your little fox, your sixth grandfather is really going through a hard time this time. If your master favors your uncle, I will never agree!"
After Tang Ping left, the remaining four Qian Chao also became worried. Kang Fu told them that they could go back individually, but the four of them were uneasy, so they all headed towards the cave of Fairy Guhuo in Shuiyun Valley. Go, naturally they can't go in to hear what the Yuanying Patriarch will say about this matter, so they will wait for news outside Fairy Guhuo's cave.
…
Fairy Guhuo and Tang Ping were slightly surprised when they landed in front of the door of her cave. Qiu Huahe did not go in, but stood outside the cave.
"Senior brother, why are you still here? Isn't Master looking for you?"
Qiu Huahe looked at the pair of masters and disciples with a complex expression, especially at Tang Ping. Tang Ping was so frightened that Tang Ping hid behind his master, and then he snorted and said nothing.
Ruoyun on the side said quickly:
"Uncle came here early, but Master said that if you want to meet, we can meet together. He asked Uncle to wait here until Master and Junior Sister arrive before they go in together."
Hearing this, Fairy Guhuo felt slightly relieved. The master did not give the senior brother a chance to meet alone. It seemed that Xiaobai, who was a Tang Ping, was saved. Without time to think about it, she pointed her hand at Qiu Huahe. said:
"Senior brother please."
Qiu Huahe turned around with a cold face and walked into Fairy Guhuo's cave.
…
Tang Ping felt extremely uneasy. Although Qian Chao had repeatedly assured her that Xiaobai would be fine in Kangfu's cave, after all, Xiaobai was the spiritual beast she valued most. She felt nervous and uneasy under the concern. You can imagine.
As soon as he stepped into his master's cave, he noticed a spiritual pressure that was absolutely different from that of his master and uncle. Compared to the Dan-Jie monks, the Yuanying monks had a deeper sense of coercion. Solemn, this made Tang Ping feel more and more worried.
As his master and Qiu Huahe walked into the hall where his master usually drank tea and rested, his master and uncle immediately knelt down, and Tang Ping also knelt down quickly.
"Meet Master." The brother and sister said in unison.
"Meet Master." Tang Ping also said respectfully.
"Well, you two, please get up and sit down on both sides to talk. Girl, raise your head and let me see." An old and majestic voice said.
Tang Ping raised her head. In front of her, sitting where her master usually sat, was a skinny old man wearing an ordinary gray robe. Because the old man was too thin, the robe was so fluffy that it looked like it was hanging on The same thing happened to him. The old man had sparse gray hair, which was tied up in a small bun with a wooden hairpin. His forehead was big and full of wrinkles, as was his face. There was quite a bit of gray beard under his chin. What impressed Tang Ping the most was the old man's eyes. Different from the turbid eyes of ordinary old people, this old man's eyes were unusually bright. Under the drooped eyelids, the eyes above the baggy eyebags looked like... Staring at Tang Ping like a newborn baby.
What surprised Tang Ping the most was that there was a fat little baby sitting next to the old man. He looked about five or six years old, wearing a white shirt and two white and tender little arms. He was holding a fruit in his arms and gnawing on the pulp without anyone else. The juice kept flowing down his cheeks and wrists. The little baby kept licking the juice on his hand with his little tongue. When he saw Tang Ping It seemed to him that the little guy was still grinning at her, which frightened Tang Ping and quickly looked away.
"Master." Tang Ping said respectfully again.
Qiu Long looked at his disciple and suddenly smiled, then looked at Fairy Guhuo and said:
"Gu Ci, your disciple looks very much like you did when you became my disciple. Well, you have a weird face. You look honest, but you have a lot of ideas in your heart, and you are very stubborn at heart. Haha, well , I haven’t seen many of your disciples, but in my opinion, this closed disciple of yours will definitely achieve something in the future, at least her achievements will not be inferior to Hang Zhuo.”
Hang Zhuo is the eldest disciple of Fairy Gu Huo. When he became a disciple, Qiu Long also came to watch the ceremony as usual, so he saw him and couldn't help but praise Hang Zhuo.
Fairy Guhuo smiled and said to Tang Ping:
"Master praised you, why don't you thank me enough?"
"Thank you, Master."
"Well, girl, I heard on Yuhu Mountain that you have a rare little fox. I want to take a look at the little fox when I come here this time."
It finally came. After hearing these words, Tang Ping's heart almost jumped out of her throat. Who knew whether she could get Xiaobai back at this time, but she didn't say no at all here. place, she said bravely:
"yes……"
Xiaobai was almost paralyzed when Tang Ping took him out of the spirit beast bag. In the past, he was scared to death in front of Fairy Guhuo, but now he was not only weak but also trembling in front of a Nascent Soul monk.
Tang Ping stood up and walked towards Qiulong with Xiaobai in her arms. Every step she took was as heavy as if her legs were filled with lead. Moreover, she was even more uneasy to find that the fat little baby next to her master stopped. She stopped eating the fruit, but stared closely at Xiaobai. Her big eyes were full of greed, and her face was smiling like a fool, which made this little doll look very ferocious!
This also made Tang Ping even more scared, but she finally walked to the master's desk.
"Put it here." Qiu Long clicked on the table.
Xiaobai immediately collapsed on the table, his big tail rolled back to cover his head and face, and he did not dare to look at the old man.
Although Tang Ping put down Xiao Bai, she still stayed in front of the table and refused to leave. On both sides, Fairy Guhuo and Qiu Huahe were staring at the little white fox, especially Qiu Huahe. His breathing became rapid and heavy. The last time he was in Kangfu's cave, he only saw it from a distance, but this time it was up close. Although too many things had happened in the past few days, and the situation had evolved to a situation that was difficult for him. Unfavorable, but when what he has been pursuing all his life is right in front of him, almost at his fingertips, the greed in his eyes is no less than that of the fat and white baby next to him. His eyes are staring straight at him, and his body is still moving forward. Qing seemed to be about to jump out and fight for it again.
Maybe... I can get the little guy I dreamed of today... Qiu Huahe thought to himself!
Fairy Guhuo is worried that her master will eventually give Xiaobai to Qiu Huahe. What should she do if that happens?
Qiu Long didn't care that Tang Ping was standing in front of him. Facing Xiaobai, he stretched out his hand to catch Xiaobai as if he had seen some unique treasure. He first looked at Xiaobai's eyes carefully, and then stretched out his hand to straighten Xiaobai's face. He looked carefully with his ears, stroking the snow-white hair on Xiaobai's body with his dry hands, and then lifted up Xiaobai's long and furry tail to examine, as well as Xiaobai's paws, and even opened Xiaobai's mouth to look at it. Looking at the teeth and scarlet little tongue in its mouth, it nodded while looking at it. The look in its eyes became more and more intense, and the whole person became more and more excited.
Opposite him, Tang Ping became more and more worried.
Just when Qiu Long was looking at Xiaobai carefully, the chubby little baby next to him finally couldn't help it anymore. He got up and came to Qiu Long's side. He stared at it first, and then began to beg, begging Qiu Long. He gave the little white fox to him, and then he started hopping around and kept saying "Give it to me, give it to me quickly", his voice full of urgency. Finally, when Qiu Long ignored him, the little white fox couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to catch Xiao Bai. , this made Qiulong angry, he knocked the fat little arm aside, and then roared with a fierce eyebrow:
"What are you giving me! Is it yours? You dare to come and rob me. Are you going to imitate those bastards and rob the juniors regardless of their status and face? Stand back..."
It happened very suddenly. The roar exploded like thunder in the cave, causing Tang Ping in front of him to tremble and his ears to ring. It also made Qiu Huahe's heart suddenly sink. He was originally full of emotions. Xi Xi's face suddenly turned gloomy, and Fairy Gu Huo's expression also changed drastically. Her master had the weirdest temperament. In the past, whoever scolded him the most would benefit the most, so Qiu Huahe had suffered a lot before. Scolding, it was the same today. Fairy Guhuo still couldn't figure out what her master was thinking. It would be bad if she scolded Qiu Huahe first and then changed the subject. After all, Qiu Huahe had already paid the price. It's just that he doesn't know it yet. Master might use Xiaobai to compensate him in the end...
The chubby little baby sat back with a grimace as if he had been wronged, and retorted unconvinced:
"Why are you so mean to me? Did I make you embarrassed in Yuhu Mountain?"
"Shut up..." Qiulong shouted angrily.
"Hmph!" The little kid seemed not to be afraid of Qiulong at all. He hummed angrily and picked another big fruit from the fruit plate next to him and ate it with a "click".
Turning around again, Qiu Long's expression returned to normal. He gently placed Xiao Bai on the table, sighed first, and then said:
"Girl, you really have a great chance. I have only seen this little fox with pure bloodline in my life. I have only seen a proper descendant of the nine-tailed sky fox. Oh, it is such a good opportunity, no wonder!"
Tang Ping didn't even listen to what the master in front of her was saying. She was tremblingly reaching out to snatch Xiao Bai back, when she heard Qiu Long say again:
"But after all, it is still a cub. If it is snatched away by anyone, it can be used by others... It doesn't matter... it's just a matter of time, so I will save you this trouble..."
After hearing this, Tang Ping gave up the idea of snatching Xiao Bai back.
Fairy Guhuo on the side was shocked when she heard this, and looked at her master in disbelief.
"Sit down and give me your hand." Qiulong said.
Tang Ping sat down in front of the master obediently, and then stretched out her hand.
Qiu Long took out a slender silver needle at some point. He held the needle with one hand and grabbed Tang Ping's wrist with the other. He immediately looked at Tang Ping's face and said:
"Well, sure enough."
Tang Ping knew that with this arrest, the secret of his spiritual root had been known to this master.
The silver needle pierced his finger, Qiu Long squeezed out a little blood from Tang Ping's finger, then grabbed Xiaobai's leg, which was half-dead with fear, and pricked the flesh pad under the paw, and also took a blood The beads came out, and then the spell was cast. Finally, after the two blood beads merged into one, they turned into two rays of light and shot into the eyes of Tang Ping and Xiao Bai respectively. There was nothing unusual except for a slight astringency.
Qiu Long breathed a sigh of relief, as if a burden had been lifted, and finally said:
"This little fox will definitely be of great use to you in the future. Take good care of it and raise it well. From today on, you don't have to worry about others trying to take advantage of it. From now on, even if it is snatched away by others, you won't be able to use it unless... hehe ...The person who snatched your little fox can go to Yuhu Mountain and kill me, otherwise this little fox can only be used by you, do you understand?"
This was an ending that Tang Ping had never expected at first. She never expected that her master would be so fair. Not only did he not steal her novice, but he also helped her. The grateful Tang Ping immediately kowtowed on the ground.
"Okay, get up, girl. The path you are taking is also unusual. Even though you have some opportunities now, if you want to achieve great success in the future, you will have to work hard. You know all this. Right?" Qiulong asked.
"You know, this junior has already made plans..."
"Well, that's good, that's fine. Now that I've met you, I will naturally have something to give you. These are some of my experiences and experiences when I traveled around the world. I may be able to help you in the future."
Qiu Long took out a pamphlet from his body and handed it over. Tang Ping quickly took it and thanked her endlessly.
"Okay, girl, you have nothing to do here. Take your little fox out. I still have some things to discuss with your master and uncle."
"yes."
