It was getting late and night was falling.
A bonfire was lit in a secluded mountain forest.
Li Daoxuan was roasting a large piece of dragon meat. When it was sizzling and oily, he sprinkled a handful of peppercorns and dogwood powder for seasoning.
Liu Bihen was leaning against a tree, holding his sword across his knees and polishing his sword.
She really practices swordsmanship all the time. Li Daoxuan has never seen anyone as obsessed with swords as her. When she was in Dushuo Mountain, even if she slept, she would sleep with her sword in her arms.
A few fallen leaves floated down and split into two parts above her head, the cut smooth as a mirror.
That is the invisible sword intention.
However, as the aroma of barbecue wafted up, the heroic female swordsman frowned slightly.
She opened her eyes, looked at the barbecue Li Daoxuan handed her, and said, "Senior brother, I have long been accustomed to fasting and do not eat the fireworks of the world."
Li Dao
Perhaps because the smell of the barbecue was so fragrant, Liu Bihen finally took it and chose to have a taste.
The red lips were slightly opened, and the delicate teeth bit off a piece of dragon meat and chewed it carefully.
Li Daoxuan clearly saw that Liu Bihen's eyes lit up slightly, and then she ate meat much faster.
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they circulated Zhou Tian's energy to digest the dragon meat.
Li Daoxuan opened his eyes first. He took out the doll and looked at it carefully.
This is indeed a very ordinary rag doll. Li Daoxuan didn't feel a trace of mana fluctuations on it, not even a magic weapon.
Before leaving, Momo threw the rag doll to himself. What did he express?
Did she know that she couldn't leave the underworld, so she gave her favorite doll as a gift?
Li Daoxuan was a little confused. He felt that there were more and more secrets in Mo Mo, and the key to unlocking it all might be the black liquid.
"What's going on silently?"
Liu Bihen also finished digesting the dragon meat, she opened her eyes and asked.
She also liked that little girl very much.
Li Dao
"Styx?"
Liu Bihen's expression was stern. She fell into the River Styx and deeply experienced the feeling of being bitten by thousands of ghosts. It was really worse than death. With her tempered will, she couldn't help but fainted, let alone a person. Little girl?
"Mo Mo herself is a dead soul. After falling into the River Styx, she did not attract any evil ghosts. Logically speaking, she should sink in the river forever until she becomes a new evil ghost. However..."
Li Dao
Hearing this, even Liu Bihen, who had always been calm, couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Those crazy ghosts could actually save a little girl?
"Mo Mo has no body and is not suitable for possession. Later, Zhou Laodao also tested Mo Mo with Taoism and found that there was nothing abnormal about Mo Mo. His personality and memory were exactly the same as before. However, his body became dirty and could not be washed off. Sometimes Black liquid will also appear.”
"Those black liquids will disappear on their own after appearing for a while, and I will feel no other sensation except pain."
Li Daoxuan felt a little regretful. If Mo Mo could be brought to the Qingming Realm, with the eyesight of the empress, he should be able to see the problems in her body.
After hearing this, Liu Bihen thought for a moment and said: "It seems that the key to the problem lies in what happened after silently falling into the River Styx."
Li Dao .
"I asked Momo what happened in the days when she fell into the River Styx. Momo said that she just felt like she was falling, and the speed of falling was getting faster and faster, and finally she hit the bottom of the river."
"After that, she lost any consciousness."
Liu Bihen pulled out the glass dragon sword, took out a colorful sword sharpening stone, and began to gently polish the sword's edge.
"Senior brother, there is no need to worry too much. Since we have successfully returned to the earth, it means that Zhou Laodao can be trusted. The next time we go to see Mo Mo, you and I will not be the only ones present."
Li Daoxuan also smiled. He put away the doll and said, "That's right. Next time I go to the underworld, I must give Xudu a good surprise!"
After a pause, he looked at the whetstone in Liu Bihen's hand and asked, "Junior sister, was this whetstone given to you by Junior Brother Wu Wei?"
Liu Bihen nodded and said, "Yes, this whetstone is mixed with copper from Shou Mountain. Regular sharpening of the sword can increase the edge of the glass dragon."
Li Daoxuan said a little strangely: "Junior sister, Junior Brother Wu said that as long as you sharpen your sword, his smiling face will appear on the whetstone. Why can't you see it?"
Liu Bihen's hand paused slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"That... I thought it was too ugly, so I used a glass dragon to chop off that part of the face."
Li Daoxuan laughed and could already imagine his junior brother's heartache.
To be honest, Liu Bihen is not particular about food and clothing. She is sincere and loves swords. Whether it is a jade robe or a cloth, it makes no difference to her, as long as she can wear it.
She can't help but complain, which shows that she is really ugly...
"Junior sister, since you want to sway someone, the more the better. I have heard for a long time that Senior Aunt Fuxue has profound cultivation and excellent swordsmanship. Why don't we contact her?"
Liu Bihen nodded and said: "Yes, my master actually lives in Jiangzhou, but..."
She glanced at Li Daoxuan and advised: "You'd better not go. If master knew that you were Uncle Zhang's disciple, I'm afraid he wouldn't look good on you."
Li Daoxuan was startled, that shouldn't be the case, I am your old lover's true disciple.
Could it be that the master lied and that he only had unrequited love?
Or is he really a scumbag?
In an instant, Li Daoxuan's flames of gossip ignited. He stepped forward and said with a smile, "Junior sister, tell me, what exactly happened between my aunt and my master back then?"
Liu Bihen looked at him in surprise, wondering why he was so interested in these things.
In her opinion, anything that had nothing to do with swords was unattractive.
But since senior brother wants to know so much...
She sat further away, and the dancing firelight illuminated her white cheeks and her eyes as cold as sword light.
"They became Taoist couples and traveled around the world together. During that time, the master said that her sword was not sharp anymore. It was not fast enough, not cruel enough, and the core of the sword was rusty."
Liu Bihen tilted her head, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
He seems to be unable to understand what it feels like when the sword's core is rusty.
"Huh? Senior brother, why did you start eating again?"
Li Daoxuan bit the dried watermelon seeds. There were no sunflowers in the Tang Dynasty, so they had to make do with watermelon seeds.
"It's okay, just tell me your story and don't worry about me."
Eat melon, eat melon!
