Halfway through Xu's hour, Qingfeng, who was uneasy in the inn and had a meal with the queen, returned to the old man's residence.
Helian Ruoxue, who had mastered the sword for a day, also went back to the room to wash up, saying that he would get enough sleep tonight and chat with his aunt about Qingfeng tomorrow.
The old eunuch booked the entire inn and invited the few merchants to other inns.
The entire inn was only served by the queen, a few maids, and old eunuchs.
The old man made a pot of tea at the table by the window. From the living room where Helian Mingyue lived, he could see the waterfalls in the mountains and the Peach Blossom River below the mountains.
Helian Mingyue was not in a hurry to ask about Li Xiuyuan on the mountain. Since she came here with a large team of people, she naturally wanted to solve the matter perfectly and not leave any tail behind.
Looking at Gongyang Bo in front of him, Helian Mingyue sighed softly.
Asked: "Why have you not found the elixir to restore life after so many years? Is it possible that it is really only found in the East China Sea?"
Helian Mingyue knew Gongyang Bo's past. In her eyes, the current Gongyang Bo was about the same age as her, and their cultivation levels were also similar.
But Gongyang Bo became like this because he was poisoned back then and lost his vitality.
Gongyang Bo sighed when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "What else should I do? It's already a miracle that I can survive."
When Helian Mingyue heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. After thinking about it, he comforted him softly: "You are not one of those monks who can't get the chance to break through. You have..."
The old man sighed and said to himself in a daze: "This is what happened in winter, and I haven't had time to tell you yet."
"This is a great happy event and deserves a good celebration. Congratulations."
Helian Mingyue took a deep breath, frowned slightly and asked, "Did you encounter the elixir in that mountain forest last winter? Or did you start to practice Buddhism like the boys from the Duanmu family?"
Gongyang Bo had crossed that realm, and the distance between him and Helian Mingyue was getting smaller and smaller. She was a little shocked. How long had it been?
Obviously when she left Furong Town last year, the old man showed no sign of breaking out.
She understood how difficult it would be for Gongyang Bo, who lacked vitality, to break through that threshold? And she couldn't help at all, because she didn't have such a panacea herself.
Gongyang Bo sighed and replied leisurely: "Originally, I lacked vitality and thought that I would be with Chan'er in a few years. Unexpectedly, I unexpectedly broke through."
"I would like to be like Qingfeng and Ruoxue and realize the Tao on the mountain, but I haven't yet. However, the princess and Qingfeng have realized different sword intentions on the mountain."
The old man changed the subject and brought the topic to the two of them, gently avoiding his own affairs.
He didn't ask Li Xiuyuan about his breakthrough. He didn't know if he could tell anyone about it, and he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble to the young man on the mountain.
Helian Mingyue had a look of astonishment on his face after hearing this. Helian Ruoxue's cultivation came from her, and she knew it best.
That girl has been cultivating desperately to break through the realm. When can she sit down quietly and realize the incomprehensible sword intention?
How could there be a small place like Furong Town? Could it be that there was a peerless master in the temple on the mountain? Can you teach others better than yourself? There was only a glimmer of possibility for Helian Ruoxue to realize the meaning of the sword.
Thinking of this, Helian Mingyue couldn't help but ask: "Incredible, tell me, what kind of sword intention has Ruoxue comprehended?"
Although she could ask in person tomorrow, it was clear that Helian Mingyue couldn't wait to learn the details from the old man's mouth.
The old man looked at the mist rising from the waterfall outside the window, and thought that Helian Ruoxue and Qingfeng had realized two completely different sword intentions, and couldn't help but sigh again.
"A drop of water."
The old man took a breath, and as his vision gradually became clearer, he saw the iron pillars in the pavilion above the waterfall.
He said to Helian Mingyue: "The princess saw a drop of water, but Qingfeng saw a wisp of flame. It's interesting, the two of them did not work together for more than two days."
"It turns out that Ruoxue realized a trace of Ruoshui Sword Intent??"
When he said these words, a sharp and cold spiritual sword appeared in front of Helian Mingyue's eyes, slowly stabbing her with the purest and most powerful power in the world.
So much so that she had to cheer up and remind herself that this was just an artistic conception, and then she gradually calmed down the turbulent waves in her heart.
The living room was completely silent for a while, except for the low roar of the waterfall outside the window.
In the living room, Li Xiuyuan was about to let Xiaodieer go back to the room to rest. Huajiao had already dreamed, and the little girl and Crow were still here drinking tea with the master.
The two of them had different thoughts from Huajiao, because there was an army coming down the mountain, and both of them were restless.
He was afraid that the master would swing his sword and kill the army at the foot of the mountain. In the eyes of the crow, it could make a fortune again.
Xiao Die'er just thought that although Yun Qingjiao was not hurt today, she finally made the other party suffer a hidden loss, and it was considered revenge for the sword attack on Fushan.
But in this case, the other party may not be able to swallow this breath, and may not want to fight with her again. It just so happens that she also wants to try her sword.
After enduring two cups of tea, she finally couldn't help but look at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "Master."
"Well, tell me."
"Will you fight with that woman tomorrow? I didn't understand her cultivation level last time. She should be very powerful, right?"
"Well, so what if you're awesome, are you scared??"
Xiaodie'er shook her head: "I just think that if the master takes action, the woman's apprentice will definitely not be able to bear it. What will Xiaodie'er do?"
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, looked at her and smiled: "Even if the sky falls, it's none of your business. You are not allowed to fight with others again."
Xiao Die'er seemed a little surprised and didn't know what to say.
Crow looked at her and smiled and said: "Master wants to settle the previous karma with that woman. If Senior Sister takes action again, I'm afraid she will add new grudges."
Li Xiuyuan nodded and replied: "Your junior brother is right, we are just passers-by here. As long as the Queen is willing to come forward and settle the Huajiao matter, we can leave with peace of mind."
Xiaodie'er's heart moved slightly, but this moment reminded her of the tragic death of her brother Huajiao.
So she clenched her little fists and showed a solemn expression on her face. Seeing in the crow's eyes, there was an aura of dark clouds over the city, and she was immediately frightened.
Quietly, Xiao Die'er asked: "Master, is it possible that the death of my junior sister and brother was in vain, and we will no longer seek revenge on the Meng family?"
Li Xiuyuan sighed again in desperation.
He poured hot tea into Xiaodie'er's cup and replied: "In Tianshui Town, the person whose leg was cut off by you was Meng Wuhen. He invited a bandit to take revenge."
Li Xiuyuan told them one by one about the bandits' attack and the bandits Xiao Die'er encountered on Wanren Mountain.
Then he looked at her and said: "Because this matter has involved many people, as long as the Queen can make a guarantee, I think Huajiao can let go of the hatred in his heart."
When the crow heard this, he immediately stopped saying anything. The master had already made a decision. What could he and his senior sister change?
If you think about not fighting, you can go to the East China Sea early to play and play with the peacock. It must be good, because it hasn't been to the sea yet.
Xiao Die'er nodded: "Junior sister only listens to the master's words. As long as the queen no longer causes trouble for the master, we will let that Meng Wuhen go."
In fact, she was also startled, thinking that she had known that the guy she met in Tianshui Town was Meng Wuhen, and she had cut him off with a sword at that time. How could she only cut off one of his legs?
And how could she dare to say this in front of Li Xiuyuan?
If she really screamed at this time, the master might blame her for her demonic nature and punish her to memorize Buddhist sutras in front of the Buddha for three days and three nights.
After taking a sip of tea, Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "Tomorrow, you two will stay here with Qingfeng to copy Buddhist scriptures. You are not allowed to go anywhere."
Xiao Die'er said "Oh!", glanced at Crow, said nothing, clapped her little hands, and walked out of the living room.
After a long while, a sentence came: "Master Xiaodie'er is going to sleep."
Wu Wu was stunned when he heard this, turned to look at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Senior sister is angry?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Are you the master, or am I the master?"
"Okay, tell me, will there be a big fight with that woman tomorrow? After all, I really can't help you this time."
Crow thought of the shocking battle between Li Xiuyuan and the Great Demon King, and a look of anticipation appeared on his face. He thought to himself that this Yunqi Temple would not become the second Demon Mountain, right?
Li Xiuyuan clapped his hands and walked out of the living room holding the crow's wings.
He replied calmly: "Whether it's war or peace, it depends on her choice."
The sound of running water in the mountains broke the silence in the living room.
The old man has already told the original story. In Furong Town, a sister and a brother depend on each other, and the younger brother has a marriage contract with a girl from the Wanping Wen family.
But because the girl's father died unexpectedly, her money-grubbing mother wanted to tear her apart.
In order to save money for her brother to get a wife, the girl went to the mountains and forests to find the elixir at all risks, but she met Li Xiuyuan who refused to look back for her.
Because of Xiao Die'er and Crow's catastrophe, Hua Jiao stayed in the mountains for one more night. By the time she returned home, Hua Yiyi had already gone to Wanping to find Miss Wen's family.
Until Huajiao went to Wanping to bring back his younger brother's body, the crow brought back the body of the Wen family and was forcibly taken away, and the body of Miss Wen's family died in the imperial city.
Afterwards, the old man talked about all the grudges and grudges, and there was no emotion in his words. At the old man's level of cultivation, he had long looked down on life and death in the world.
It was Li Xiuyuan who killed five hundred forbidden troops with a wave of his hand, and then killed more than a hundred bandits. When he said it, he was still calm and calm, and there was no description of any ups and downs.
At the end of the meeting, as a passerby, he told Helian Mingyue a story that happened in the past.
However, inadvertently, he also became a bystander in those stories, although he never took any action from beginning to end.
But it still witnessed the changes in the situation, and countless lives turned into fertilizer in the mountains.
Listening to the story told quietly by the old man, Helian Mingyue could not suppress the shock in her heart, but her face did not show too many emotions.
After a long time, she sighed softly and asked: "In that case, why was Li Xiuyuan unwilling to see me in this small town last winter?"
The old man sighed and said with a wry smile: "This is all God's will, because after he came back from the mountains and forests, he fell asleep in the inn for several days."
"On the day Huajiao took Xiaodie'er and Crow Crow to Wanping to find his brother Hua Yiyi, Li Xiuyuan began to sleep until you left, until Xiaodie'er and the three returned here with Hua Yiyi's body."
Staring at the old man in front of her blankly, Helian Mingyue believed that he would not deceive her, because the two of them had been friends for decades and shared the same pain.
Recalling the night last year when the boy turned around for him and made tea for each other in the mountains and forests, he said in disbelief: "Is this fate?"
The old man sighed and continued: "Because of the peppercorns, Li Xiuyuan decided to stay here temporarily, changed the ruined temple on the mountain into Yunqi Temple, and built stone steps up the mountain."
"You won't believe it. The iron pillars in the pavilion were made of the weapons and armor of the five hundred forbidden soldiers. He left a Buddhist scripture with two different sword intentions on it."
"That's why Qingfeng met Xiaodie'er on the road. The princess chased Qingfeng all the way. The group took shelter in a cave, but they were chased by the law enforcement elders of your holy religion. Isn't this God's will? What is it?"
The old man looked at Helian Mingyue and asked quietly.
