The Susha family disappeared in the mountains and forests, and because they were close to Tongchenyuan, they often had frequent contacts with each other. There are even rumors in the world that the two sides have entered into an offensive and defensive alliance, but this has never been confirmed.
A few years ago, Susha Qingying advanced to the fusion stage. After that, he joined Tongchen Garden and temporarily lived in Jiu Shou Peak to practice. He was an outstanding inner disciple.
This woman is mature and has high prestige in the clan, but the pair of living treasures are as silent as a cicada when they see her.
At that time, I heard Susha Qingying scolding me: "I want to sneak home without the permission of my master. What a brave thief!"
Su Shadong said: "The birthday of the master of the family is coming soon. We just want to go back and kowtow. Please forgive me, senior sister."
Su Sha Qingying was still angry and snorted coldly: "If I had arrived a little later, you would have been the one waiting for the blood splattered on the spot."
Yan Ci suddenly became sullen when he heard this, secretly cursing such an arrogant and unruly woman.
Su Shadong laughed and said, "Senior sister doesn't know about pearls and jade, but this senior brother is a disciple of Senior Uncle Qingming."
Susha Qingying said in surprise: "Hey, junior brother is Yan Ci?"
Yan Ci nodded and said, "Yan has met senior sister."
Susha Qingying was startled, then suddenly smiled and said: "Little girl, I heard that my junior brother's Taoism is profound and my words were inappropriate just now. Please forgive me."
Yan Ci kept saying he didn't dare, and thought to himself: How can this be a compliment to Lao Tzu's Taoism? Obviously you don't dare to underestimate my identity. The stinky girl's ability to adapt to the wind is really good!
After being polite to each other for a while, Susha Qingying asked the whole story.
It turns out that Su Shadong and Su Shaxi are twins. They can't resist the loneliness in the mountains and want to sneak back to their clan to relax for a few days.
Unexpectedly, when passing through the Qingluo Grassland, Sushaxi saw a rabbit that was as fat as himself. On a whim, he wanted to catch it and roast it. However, he unexpectedly encountered a descendant of the Huangfu family and got into a dispute.
The two brothers wanted to teach others a lesson, but if Yan Ci had not intervened, they would have been dealt with by others.
Yan Ci said: "Thanks to Mr. Xie's permission, Yan went out to do some work. Who would have expected that he would be lucky enough to meet his junior brother by chance, but the two of them are actually twins, which is quite unexpected."
Su Shadong sarcastically said to Su Shaxi: "He is so greedy, it is inevitable that he will look weird."
Sushaxi sneered and said: "If you are like a bamboo pole, you won't be afraid that one day the wind will get stronger and you will disappear."
Susha Qingying glared and yelled: "Shut up, you will never behave like this!" He turned to Yan Ci and said: "Has the junior brother's matter been settled?"
Yan Ci said hypocritically: "It's almost done, Yan is preparing to go back to the mountain."
Susha Qingying said: "At the end of the month, it will be the 100th birthday of the Susha family. At that time, many cultivators will come to celebrate his birthday. If you have nothing else to do, junior brother, would you like to go with us to watch the ceremony?"
Yan Ci had originally intended to visit him, but this invitation played into his ambitions. He pretended to decline and said: "The master of the family has great respect for his virtue. I originally went to kowtow, but it's a pity that Mr. Xie limited the time and came back late for fear of being scolded. "
Susha Qingying smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, maybe Xie Lao will come on his birthday, so I won't blame junior brother."
Seeing that Yan Ci was a little hesitant, Su Shadong said: "That's right, that's right. Big names gathered that day. It's always a good idea to go and broaden your horizons."
Su Shaxi curled her lips and said, "At most, senior brother will watch from afar and won't ask you to kowtow."
Yan Ci hesitated again and again, and finally made up his mind and said: "It's hard to refuse your kindness, so I'm going to make some noise."
The storage ring of Huangfu's disciple was left among the green grass. The group of cultivators divided the belongings into pieces. Yan Ci waved goodbye to the wild horse and followed Susha Qingying and others to the northeast.
Su Shadong asked on the way: "That little thief Huangfu seems to be very interested in people with the surname Yan. Senior brother asked him deliberately before he arrived. What's the reason?"
Yan Ci said calmly: "I don't know, maybe the person named Yan dug into his ancestral grave."
The pair of live treasures were stunned, covered their mouths and said with a smile: "It's possible."
The continuous mountains are quiet and wilderness, and people are enjoying the mountains and rivers along the way, talking and laughing on their way.
A few days later, there were high mountains, clouds and waves, vast forests, pines and ancient cypresses, peach blossoms and green willows blooming, white cranes lingering and pathos, and golden pheasants whispering softly.
Suddenly we stepped into a deep valley with cold spring weather, and the shadows of willows danced on the ground.
Yan Ci followed Susha Qingying as he shuttled through a willow forest, and sighed: "It was clearly a bright and sunny day, but when I got into the forest, I saw the vision of the moon hanging on the willow branches. If my senior sister hadn't told me, Yan would have thought he had seen a ghost. Woolen cloth."
Susha Qingying said with a smile: "This phantom array of flying flowers on the moon is made of 18,000 weeping willows. Four full moons rise in the east, west, south, and north of the array. The willow branches are swaying lightly, and the catkins are dancing lightly. However, the intruder has no clue of the direction, and it is one of our clan’s protective formations.”
Yan Ci pretended not to care and said: "Your mansion is so generous. I wonder if destroying the willow tree's origin can break the formation?"
Susha Qingying smiled slightly and grabbed a weeping willow branch next to her with her bare hands. There was nothing in her hand. The willow branch was like a mirror image of the water and the moon, ethereal.
She explained: "In the phantom formation, everything you see is false. This formation is divided into night and day, and has the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It also integrates the number of the ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches, and can derive more transformation methods. Thousands of kinds. It is difficult for outside enemies to enter this formation, and it is also difficult for disciples within the clan to get out. Therefore, what we learned when we were young was to deduce the way of change."
Yan Ci said in astonishment: "So, does it mean that everyone in your house is a master of formations?"
Susha Qingying shook his head and said: "The art of formation is profound and profound. The energy required to learn this art is unparalleled. Those who are not gifted may not be able to achieve anything in their lifetime. What we have learned is only superficial. It’s very difficult to go further.”
Yan Ci said curiously: "Oh, judging from how easy it is for the two junior disciples to advance and retreat, it seems that they have a unique way of learning the art of battle."
Su Sha Qingying sneered and said: "I don't know, I'm just pretending to understand. If I hadn't led the way, they would have been stuck in the same circle."
Yan Ci laughed dumbly and said, "That's it."
Brothers Sushadong and Sushaxi looked embarrassed, feeling deeply embarrassed.
Yan Ci followed Susha Qingying's pace, and the more he walked, the more he admired him. After just a cup of tea, his pace had changed several times.
It seems that what Susha Qingying said is true. It is not easy for outsiders to invade this place. The family has such a profound foundation, no wonder it has such a big name.
However, thinking of the entanglements between the Luotuo knights and the Susha family, he couldn't help but secretly cursed: "Hmph, the Susha family's defense is as strong as a turtle shell. Nine times out of ten, it's because they did too many things against their will."
As we walked again and again, suddenly the willow trees swayed slightly and the sky suddenly brightened.
A crystal clear lake lies in front of you. The water and sky are the same color, and the setting sun meets your eyes. The mood is very empty.
The evening wind blows, blowing away the layers of scaly waves, and a small boat ripples in the lake. The old man wears a bamboo hat and a coir raincoat, and the squeaking sound of the oar floats in the distance.
Willows cling to the shore of the lake, and a shepherd boy rides back on the back of a green bull, playing the piccolo casually.
The peaks around the lake are undulating with waves, the springs are rushing, the waterfalls are roaring, the green pines are evergreen in the evening light, the bamboos are whirling, there are also strange animals hiding in the form of orchids, and the birds are singing and the fragrance of flowers is everywhere.
Rows of jingshes are scattered across the mountains, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
Su Sha Qingying waved her hand and called out: "Liu Bo is so happy, how many fish did you catch today?"
On the boat, the old man looked at everyone from a distance, smiled faintly, and said: "It's bad luck, I only caught four small fish."
The oars of the boat swayed gently, and the shadow of the boat flashed briefly on the lake before landing in front of everyone.
Yan Ci was startled, and looked up, only to see that the old man was already over sixty years old, with a strange face and long beard, and a gleaming light in his eyes.
Su Sha Qingying said with a smile: "Oh, how are you going to cook these four small fishes, Uncle Liu? If you don't finish the meal, it won't be fresh."
The old man looked at the four people and said: "You can also steam it or fry it. There are so many diners on the island, I'm afraid it won't be enough to fill your teeth."
Susha Qingying glanced at Yan Ci and said with a smile: "What a pity... What's even more pity is that there is a golden-scaled fish here, and Uncle Liu can't eat it."
The old man was a little surprised, looked at Yan Ci and said, "I wonder who this little friend is?"
Yan Ci stepped forward and paid homage: "Yan Ci, a disciple of Tongchenyuan, pays homage to my senior."
The old man waved his hand and said: "It turns out that you are also a high disciple of Shenyuan. You don't need to be polite, little friend."
I just heard that there is an island in the lake, but I haven't seen its true appearance. Yan Ci stood on the bow of the boat, thinking that the boat would naturally straighten up when it reached the bridge, and what should appear would always appear.
The air is fresh and the lake is sparkling. Being in the vast lake scenery, you can't help but feel like you are a drop in the ocean.
Just when Yan Ci was stunned, a huge island suddenly appeared in the lake.
The island is filled with auspicious clouds, lush vegetation, rows of palaces and pavilions, and is very prosperous. Black cranes fly among the palaces and towers, and turtles float in the shallows on the lakeshore.
The boat docked, and everyone bid farewell to the old man and went to the island. A loud song could be heard faintly on the lake.
This is a clean and tidy courtyard, with green flowers, rockery and flowing water.
The courtyard faces east to west, with a total of five fresh and comfortable bedrooms.
The indoor desk chairs, candlesticks, inkstones, pen holders and desks are all of high quality. The elegant vases are filled with flowers, the green jade plates are filled with spiritual fruits, the carved window lattice and the soft bed are very pleasing to the eye.
Yan Ci gnawed on the spiritual fruit, huddled in the chair and crossed her legs, while her eyes secretly glanced at a young woman outside the window.
The woman came in first, and she was sitting on the edge of the corridor opposite, admiring the flowers. Her face was flushed, her crescent-like eyes were full of aura, and her legs were dangling in a lovely way.
When the girl found out that someone was peeking at her lewdly, she immediately blushed and said bitterly: "Dirty bitch." She turned back to her room and slammed the door.
Yan Ci hit a big nail, but burst out laughing, and then murmured: "The tattoo on that man's sleeve is clearly the pattern of the Huangfu family. Hey, it's exciting now."
The long night was long, and Yan Ci had no intention of sleeping, so he sat quietly on the bed and breathed in. By the next morning, he was even more energetic.
The Su Shadong brothers arrived very early. Seeing that Yan Ci had not activated the access control, they pushed the door open and said, "Senior brother, are you awake?"
Yan Ci sat neatly dressed at the table and said with a smile: "You two have good memories, why don't you go and watch the scenery now?"
Su Shadong said uneasily: "The birthday banquet is coming, and we have a lot of trivial things to do. We can only accompany senior brother Quan for a brief trip today. Please forgive me."
Yan Ci said: "It doesn't matter, it's Yan who is causing trouble."
The long corridor outside the courtyard is like a belt, with twists and turns. Su Shadong looked at Yan Ci worriedly and hesitated to speak.
Yan Ci said: "If you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it."
Su Shadong lowered his voice and said, "Senior brother, did you notice the female nun living in the room opposite last night?"
Yan Ci said: "I've seen it once, why do you ask this?"
Su Shadong said: "That's a descendant of the Huangfu family who came with two infant transformation monks."
Yan Ci said: "The family master is famous all over the world, so it is not surprising that the Huangfu family came to celebrate his birthday."
Su Shadong's voice was even lower: "It's just a good thing. If the Huangfu family knew that their clan members were killed by us, how could they stop?"
Yan Ci said calmly: "Is there such a thing? Yan doesn't know about it!" He turned to Su Shaxi and said, "Do you know?"
Su Shaxi was stunned and didn't know how to answer. Suddenly Su Shadong said: "Of course it doesn't happen. It was just a joke."
Yan Ci said: "Junior brother, don't be naughty. You can't play with this matter, otherwise someone will die."
Su Shadong Weiwei said yes, and although Su Shaxi was a little dull, he finally understood.
The matter was fairly secretive, and no one else would know about it unless it was leaked. If you hid the stolen goods carefully, you probably wouldn't have anything to worry about.
Yan Ci was calm on the face, secretly thinking that when the time comes, he might use this matter to encourage the two aristocratic families to bite each other.
