Mu Qing suddenly heard a familiar name, his eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Huai Cao Shi.
Bai Hu had said before in the main room that several people fell into their hands. Mu Qing was focused on getting the earth spirit roots for Huai Feng Hua and didn't pay much attention to the matter.
At this time, after Heng Yu mentioned it again, Mu Qing suddenly discovered that the Bai siblings had already fallen into the turmoil caused by some people in Hidden Valley.
Huai Caoshi's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and her voice sounded a little tired: "Jiahe came to find Jianwen. It seems that Jianwen really left the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers with the outer disciples."
"That Jianwen..."
Mu Qing hesitated to speak. He had never met Bai Jianwen, and he had a good impression of Bai Jiahe, Xu Zuo and Lu Fanrou. He did not want to guess the people on his side through a few words from people with hostile relationships.
Huai Cao Shi sighed inwardly. Mu Qing had been in a coma for a few days and had no idea what had happened to her two disciples. Looking down at the cold jade box in her arms, Huai Cao Shi swept away the haze that shrouded her heart. He said neatly: "Now let's try to save Junior Sister. Jiahe and the others should be safe."
Mu Qing saw Huai Cao Shi's weakness and exhaustion in his eyes, nodded silently, and followed Huai Cao Shi out of the courtyard.
However, Jiang Shangxiu called him out very disgustingly.
As if knowing that he was delaying others from rescuing people, Jiang Shangxiu said kindly to Huai Cao Shi, "Go and save people yourself. If you need anything urgently, you can tell me."
Jiang Shangxiu had been trying to ease the tense atmosphere today. Huai Cao Shi saw this, nodded and left quickly, leaving Mu Qing alone in the yard.
It's almost midnight, and the sun has already set in the west. From Mu Qing's perspective, most of the setting sun is blocked by the pavilion behind Jiang Shangxiu, and only the remaining small half of the setting sun spreads the afterglow in the yard. .
Those flowers and plants that had lost their aura were bathing in the sunset, waiting for their withered ending. The garden frame wrapped around Mu Qing's side was given a sacred orange-red halo. Unfortunately, the green leaves on the vines were also weak. , a gust of cool wind blew and swirled to the ground.
Mu Qing withdrew his gaze from the curled leaves at his feet and looked at Jiang Shangxiu with a questioning look on his face, but remained silent without speaking first.
After Jiang Shangxiu called out Mu Qing, he saw Mu Qing's eyes looking around the courtyard, with nostalgia for a certain lost scene, and suddenly he didn't know where to start.
Two increasingly longer and slender shadows on the ground finally intersected in the distance. Jiang Shangxiu sighed and suddenly asked: "Do you want to leave Hidden Valley?"
After asking, Jiang Shangxiu's eyes narrowed slightly and he stared at Mu Qing's eyes carefully.
Mu Qing responded to his inspection with a calm face, and there wasn't even the slightest hint of emotion in his eyes.
"I see."
Jiang Shangxiu did not say what kind of answer he got. Looking at the scenery that should have become more and more vibrant after the beginning of summer, there was a little sigh in his voice: "Their minds are now spent on other places, the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers." There may be little compensation for the damage suffered..."
"It takes a lot of effort to carve up the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers while people are sick and dying." Mu Qing nodded, expressing his understanding with an indifferent expression. Then he changed the subject and asked, "Quan Mansion should be very rich?"
Jiang Shangxiu paused: "Individual behavior does not represent the collective thoughts. Chen Qing is Chen Qing, and Quanfu is Quanfu."
Mu Qing's face showed a lack of interest: "I have something urgent to do, do you have anything else to do?"
Jiang Shangxiu smiled and said in a calm voice: "The reason why I say this is that I hope you will not let your emotions affect your judgment when you do things next."
Young people always have a burst of vitality, which is a good thing, but maybe Mu Qing doesn't know that, really speaking, Jiang Shangxiu is the only one among Hidden Valley's senior officials who really thinks highly of him.
"After the news is sent back, the outer disciples of Huangsong Valley should be able to come back tomorrow."
"What about Bai Jiahe and the others?"
Jiang Shangxiu fell silent. He and Jiang Xingyuan now have more and more differences on some matters. Zheng Shi appeared in Huangsong Valley. It was Jiang Xingyuan who noticed their undercurrent and moved the test taker who represented his identity. When the plan slowly unfolds in the future, he cannot take the initiative to exclude Zheng Shi from it.
"This matter is not that simple. Maybe Bai Jiahe and the others can come back after a while, but it is absolutely impossible for Bai Jianwen."
Mu Qing said expressionlessly: "Hidden Valley's methods of playing tricks on others have always been so despicable."
Jiang Shangxiu asked: "You want to take action? You'd better not act rashly during this period and recover from your injuries honestly."
Mu Qing said: "Although you are the only deacon of the assassin lineage, I don't want to obey your orders."
Jiang Shangxiu looked at Mu Qing's expression with interest: "Do you think you have joined Bai Hu's hidden killing team?"
"No matter whether you go to White Tiger's team or Qinglong's place in the future, as long as you are in Hidden Valley, one thing can no longer be erased." Jiang Shangxiu's voice was full of convincing flavor, "If you act wantonly, others will always be upset after knowing it. Think about whether Jiang Shangxiu instructed you Mu Qing to do this."
Jiang Shangxiu looked helpless: "I don't want to take the blame or wipe your ass."
Mu Qing knew why Jiang Shangxiu said that, and sneered: "I didn't need your rescue that night. You were the one who caused the fire yourself, and you still had to rely on me to save you."
Jiang Shangxiu frowned and looked at Mu Qing silently, as if he was looking at him again, and said in a tone that could not hide his disappointment: "I know that the green light on your body is weird. That night when I saw you, you were still dissatisfied with Huai Fenghua and the others. Abandonment, I didn’t expect that I misjudged your character.”
Jiang Shangxiu felt that Mu Qing could never escape the suspicion of being ungrateful.
Mu Qing frowned and said, "Most of you do things with selfish motives. How many of you can treat each other sincerely without any mixed motives?"
Jiang Shangxiu understood and said in surprise: "You mean I saved you out of kindness? So what have I gotten from you so far? It can be expected that when you attack fellow Hidden Valley disciples, there will be endless things to clean up. The scapegoat is waiting for me."
Mu Qing said: "You are more calm than them. No one knows what you think... and I don't want to explore it."
Mu Qing was wary of Jiang Shangxiu for a reason that he himself could not explain clearly. If he traced the origin, he probably still had a deep fear due to the murder between him and Yue Jiu.
Jiang Shangxiu shook his head. The pavilion behind him completely blocked the setting sun. It was already dark in the yard. Meng Xia still had a rare chill in the evening in the south. His mood returned to calm.
The sky was green, Mu Qing lowered his head slightly, and his face, which had just lost its greenness, flickered in and out of light under the sky, and its aura was exuded unconsciously.
Jiang Shangxiu's eyes were covered with a layer of clear light, and the momentum on Mu Qing's body evaporated towards the sky. In Jiang Shangxiu's eyes, it turned into two scenes that were constantly changing. Sometimes it was as clear as the pine waves under the bright moon, and sometimes it was as blazing as the pine waves under the bright moon. Liyuan under the broad sun,
The transition between the two scenes is irregular. Perhaps the breeze among the pines will blow up the wildfires on Liyuan.
At that time, it was a scene of Li Huo burning his heart.
Jiang Shangxiu's tone became much more cautious: "The aura on your body is turbid and difficult to understand, and the manifested visions are obviously conflicting, and there are some signs of being possessed."
"Obsessed?" Mu Qing raised his head and looked at Jiang Shangxiu.
He didn't notice any aura manifesting, and couldn't understand what Jiang Shangxiu said.
But after waking up this time, Mu Qing also felt that there was always a violent impulse in his heart that was troubling his nerves. For example, at this time, he actually had the idea of rushing over to fight Jiang Shangxiu.
"As a monk's realm reaches a higher level, his outward aura will resonate with the world and form a vision in the eyes of those who are interested."
Jiang Shangxiu looked at Mu Qing's chest and brows seriously, "The power you borrowed is far beyond your current level, and it will have endless consequences for your future practice. In the end, you should act within your ability."
"That's all." In an instant, Jiang Shangxiu disappeared from the yard.
Mu Qing withdrew his distant gaze, pinched his brows, and communicated in the sea of consciousness: "What state is he in?"
In the center of the sea of consciousness, Mu Qing's spiritual placenta sat, and there was a vortex rotating slightly on the chest of the spiritual fetus.
This is a method that Mu Qing found that allows him to communicate with that guy without entering the selection space. However, the flaw is that this guy did not respond as promptly as he did in the selection space.
Mu Qing always felt that it was because of the mood of the guy who called himself Meng Zhang...
Finally, a voice rang out in the sea of consciousness: "You are like an ant, I can kill it with just one slap."
Meng Zhang's voice was much weaker in the sea of consciousness, more like coming from ancient times against the long river of time than in the calling space. After Mu Qing exhausted his patience and listened, he asked impatiently: "How does it compare with that white tiger?" .”
"In peak condition, they should be on par."
While searching for the entrance to the secret passage, Mu Qing communicated with Meng Zhang: "Then when you lend me both Qingguang and Thunder, I will probably be able to reach a certain level of cultivation strength at that time."
In the recruitment space, he was forced to instill a method of exhaling and absorbing qi, and fell directly into a deep coma. After waking up, he was worried about the girls of Wanhua Valley. Mu Qing did not ask this very important question until now. .
"In the early stages of the True Self Realm."
"Early stage of True Self Realm?...You mean I can have extraordinary power?" Mu Qing reacted, with a hint of joy in his eyes, and also measured the strength of Bai Hu and Jiang Shangxiu.
Meng Zhang's voice was obscure: "Is it worth being happy? If you master the method of exhaling and absorbing Qi that I taught you, it will be difficult for you to break through your defense even in the late stages of the True Self Realm."
Mu Qing already understood that the breathing method was related to the layer of green light on the body, and nodded: "After you forcefully instilled the breathing method into me, I have learned it, and it is no longer a problem to be proficient."
"Isn't it a problem?" The gray vortex on Mu Qing's spiritual fetus spun a little faster, and Meng Zhang's voice came out: "You haven't even made it to the entrance."
"How can it be?"
"If you get started with my method of exhaling and absorbing qi, you will be able to send and receive the body-protecting qi freely. Can you try it?"
Mu Qing didn't believe it, but he recalled the mantra that seemed to be engraved in his mind and started to recite it silently.
Said to be a formula, the words used to express the formula not only numbered in the thousands, but were also obscure and hard to pronounce. Mu Qing recited it silently once and walked hundreds of steps.
Finally, Mu Qing stopped outside a secret passage. He felt that the pores all over his body suddenly closed, and he simply closed his eyes.
"Continue to recite silently." Meng Zhang reminded.
Mu Qing did what he said, but he only spoke one word and spent the time he had just silently recited the entire formula.
A little green light finally began to spread between Mu Qing's eyebrows, and in an instant, a pale green light the size of a fingernail formed.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Mu Qing tried, even if he opened his mouth to shout out the next word, it was all in vain.
"No." Mu Qing's face was filled with regret.
Meng Zhang's voice rang out in the sea of consciousness: "You were able to go so smoothly before, but it was because your consciousness entered the selection space and relied on my power."
Mu Qing believed Meng Zhang's explanation and stood quietly in the night for a long time before frowning and asking the next question.
"Actually, Jiang Shangxiu is right. My temper has become much more irritable. Are you influencing me?"
