Half a year later, Patriarch Bodhi stood tall on Fangcunfeng Square, with hundreds of disciples behind him.
In front of the founder, Xue Tianqing knelt on the ground: "Please master, please take back your life!"
Patriarch Bodhi said coldly: "Killing a fellow disciple and causing the death of Zhiyuan is a crime that cannot be punished. I thought that you did not practice at Fangcun Peak after you entered the school and did not respect the teachings of Bodhi Sect, so I will spare your life. I wanted you to stay here Divine Sword Peak repented, but who knew that you caused the Divine Sword to collapse again, and there was no spiritual energy on the peak. If I leave you in the door again, I don’t know what trouble will happen, so let’s go.”
Xue Tianqing kowtowed and said, "I was taught by Master after I entered the school, but I was stupid and wasted twenty years. Now I bid farewell to the mountain gate. Please accept my three bows to Master to express my gratitude for the teaching."
Seeing Xue Tianqing kowtow, Patriarch Bodhi said in vain: "Speak of the grace of enlightenment. If something happens after you get down the mountain, don't involve Fangcun Mountain."
After saying this, Patriarch Bodhi turned around and was about to go up the mountain. Seeing this, Xue Tianqing quickly got up: "You asked someone to bring me in, so you have to send me out, right? How else will I get out."
Patriarch Bodhi said without looking back: "Qingyue, you brought this person into the gate, and you will send him out of the mountain gate today."
Seeing the Patriarch leading everyone away, Qing Yue bared her teeth in the snowy sky and said, "Fairy Qing Yue, please give me a ride if you can."
Qingyue glared at Xue Tianqing, then grabbed his hand and walked out of the square.
Xue Tianqing said as she walked: "Just tell me how to walk. You don't have to take me next time."
Qingyue snorted: "I have been expelled from the school, how can there be a next time!" As she spoke, her feet had already stepped out of the square and into the air.
Then Xue Tianqing's eyes flashed, and the two of them appeared in the cave.
Looking at the cave that had not changed at all from twenty years ago, Xue Tianqing said: "Twenty years seems like a world away, but it feels like a snap of a finger. Since you have set foot in the world of mortals again today, do you want to go for a walk with me?"
Qingyue shook her head: "No, I can't leave without the instructions of the ancestor."
Xue Tianqing smiled: "What are you afraid of? The worst case scenario is that I took you down the mountain forcibly and you were expelled from the school. Are you afraid of one more sin?"
Qingyue hesitated for a while before saying: "If I go down the mountain with you, I will be punished by the ancestor when I come back. What benefits do you think I can give me to compensate for this punishment?"
Xue Tianqing's eyes widened when she heard this: "I will take you to travel in the world of mortals, eat and drink well, and you still want benefits. It's so heartless."
Qingyue snorted: "Then I won't go. Isn't it better to go back to the mountain and practice hard?"
Xue Tianqing said quickly: "Okay, tell me what benefits you want."
"It's so insincere that I have to say it myself when giving benefits!"
Xue Tianqing circled around Qingyue twice: "I don't have much now, so don't even think about giving gifts. After thinking about it, I'm afraid the only thing that can catch your eye is that sword. How about you give it to me?" Give it to you?"
Hearing that Xue Tianqing wanted to give the Dragon Song Sword to herself, Qingyue waved her hands quickly: "No, this is your life-saving means."
As soon as Xue Tianqing raised her hand, the Dragon Sword appeared in the air: "You have taken good care of me these years. Let alone a sword, what would happen if I gave you my life."
Before Qingyue could refuse again, the Dragon Song Sword had already fallen into her hands.
Xue Tianqing smiled and said: "Take it, this thing is good, just for you to defend yourself."
Qingyue looked at Xue Tianqing and frowned and said, "I would like to thank you more. If it weren't for your guidance, I wouldn't have been able to achieve the status of an immortal."
"How can you say that? It's just that the skills suitable for individuals are different. Just like Long Haichuan, he has no magic at all, so he can still achieve the immortal status with his physical body."
Qingyue was stunned: "Who is Long Haichuan?"
This sentence stopped Xue Tianqing from asking, "You don't know?"
Qingyue shook her head: "There is no one named Long Haichuan under Bodhi Sect."
There is no Long Haichuan in Bodhi Gate? Half a year ago, he accompanied his master and appeared at Shenjian Peak. What happened?
Seeing that Xue Tianqing didn't respond for a long time, Qingyue pushed him: "Uncle, who is Long Haichuan?"
Xue Tianqing said: "Forget it, since he is not a disciple of our sect, let's not talk about him. Let's go down the mountain first while it's still early. By the way, where is the Dragon Song Sword?"
Qingyue smiled when she heard this, then raised her hand and said: "Here."
As she spoke, the tip of the Dragon Sword emerged from the palm of her right hand.
Xue Tianqing was shocked and said: "How did you do it?"
Qingyue looked innocent: "I don't know. I just wanted to be able to take it back into my body like you. It turned into blue smoke and entered my hands."
Xue Tianqing muttered: "I value sex over friends."
Then he stood up and pulled Qingyue up: "Let's go, didn't we say it will take a few days to walk down the mountain? Let's enjoy the scenery while walking."
Qingyue was puzzled: "Why don't you ride the clouds down the mountain?"
Xue Tianqing rolled her eyes: "I want to appreciate the charm of the mortal world. After twenty years, I have forgotten what the world is like."
Seeing the look of longing on Qingyue's face, Xue Tianqing suddenly said: "Qingyue, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother will all enjoy the tributes, why do you make me fast?"
Qingyue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then said with a smile: "This is all the instructions of the ancestors. As long as you eat and drink, there will be filth in the body, which is not good for Qing Xiu. Now isn't this great? It saves the three urgent things. Trouble, clean body.”
Xue Tianqing pretended to be angry and said: "No, when we get down the mountain, I must eat and drink, otherwise what's the use of having a mouth! I've already said that the Jade Emperor and others eat, let alone us."
Qingyue said: "Okay, it's up to you. Let's go! This place is still far away from the world of mortals."
"By the way, what kind of world is going on outside now? Which king is governing the people?"
"The entire Nanfangbu Continent is under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, and our Xiniuhe Continent has countless countries."
Xue Tianqing was stunned when she heard this: "Datang, is there a Datang here?"
"Uncle Master, you have only been on the mountain for twenty years. Don't you know that the Tang Dynasty has ruled Nanfangbuzhou for more than three hundred years?"
"No, I don't know how big the Tang Dynasty is. By the way, who is the current King of Tang?"
Qingyue shook her head: "I don't know either, why don't I ask around on the way?"
"Let's go down the mountain first."
Liangjie Mountain, stretching between Nanfanbuzhou and Xiniuhezhou, is tens of thousands of miles long.
The east side of the Two Boundaries Mountains was the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the west side was ruled by the Tatars.
Just at the foot of the west side of Liangjie Mountain, beside the road leading to Nanfangbuzhou, there is a large town that is almost as big as a city - Liangjie Town.
On this day, two young people, a man and a woman, walked up the road in the north of the town. The woman was in front and the man was behind.
The woman was a little unhappy and just buried her head forward, while the man kept apologizing from behind.
"What can I do? How can a cultivator have money? If he doesn't steal it, why should I rob it? Besides, it's a wealthy family, and two sets of clothes are nothing to them."
The woman said angrily: "You can't steal it. Do you know that once you are a thief, you will always be a thief?"
The man muttered: "I should have known better and wouldn't have told you!"
The woman said angrily: "How dare you not tell me! Can't you change some money and use it for shopping?"
The man said: "That's a lie. It's still a lie to those small businessmen and hawkers. It's not easy for them to make money. You haven't seen the rich man. He's fat and big-eared. It's not a good thing at first glance. What's wrong with taking two pieces of his clothes?"
The two of them were Xue Tianqing and Qingyue. Since they left Xie Yue Sanxing Cave, they sometimes walked and sometimes rode on clouds. They walked for half a month before they saw a village.
It was noon at this time, smoke was rising from the kitchen in the village courtyard, and the aroma of the food floated outside the courtyard, making Xue Tianqing swallow his saliva.
Originally, he wanted to imitate the door-to-door alms on TV, but as soon as he knocked on the door and didn't wait to speak, he was scolded by the boy who came to open the door.
After the door was closed again, Xue Tianqing realized that he had been shut out, but he didn't understand why he was treated like this. Isn't it said that ordinary people in the world are willing to give charity?
Leaving Qingyue to wait outside, Xue Tianqing's figure disappeared through the wall and went straight to the outside of the hall.
Before he could even enter the door, he heard the boy who had just opened the door reporting: "Master, two bastards came outside just now, and they made me scold them."
As soon as the boy finished speaking, a sharp voice sounded: "Well scolded, these monks know how to eat for free and never think about our hard work. From now on, no matter whether they are monks or Taoists, as long as they come to beg for alms, they will all be scolded by me." Go away, if you don’t want to go away if you scold me, I’ll beat you away.”
"But sir, there is a woman among the two who is very pretty."
At this time, Xue Tianqing had already arrived at the door of the hall, and saw a fat-headed middle-aged man in front of the boy waving his hands: "I want a woman, but if I don't have any, why would I care about a Taoist nun? Master, I'm hungry, hurry up Go prepare the meals and ignore them."
Seeing the boy nodding and going out, the middle-aged man sighed, then stared at the door wondering what he was thinking.
Although it was unpleasant to be scolded, Xue Tianqing took the fat man's words seriously: After all, why should you give away your hard-earned money?
Thinking of this, Xue Tianqing turned around and left, but stopped again when he was approaching the door: the Taoist robes worn by him and Qingyue were too eye-catching, so it would be better to change their outfits.
Then he went straight to the backyard, found men's clothes from the servant's bedroom, and took a set of women's clothes from an exquisite boudoir, before leaving the yard and finding Qingyue.
After pulling Qingyue for a long distance, Xue Tianqing let her change her clothes.
Seeing that Qingyue was a little confused, Xue Tianqing told her that it was best to dress normally when going out, so that she could better appreciate the sentiments of the people.
If it is a Taoist costume, the people will only treat it with piety and show their true appearance.
Although she felt that what Xue Tianqing said was reasonable, Qingyue was very puzzled by the scolding she had just received.
Since the people all have pious and good intentions, why do they still treat the two of them like this?
Xue Tianqing rolled her eyes when she heard this: "That boy's parents just died and he is depressed, so he is so angry."
I don’t know if Qingyue went crazy practicing in Fangcun Mountain, but she didn’t even have any doubts about Xue Tianqing’s lies that were full of loopholes.
But three days later, Xue Tianqing finally got angry: "You can't think carefully when something happens. Are everything I said right?"
Qingyue said innocently: "You were the best to me when we were on the mountain. If I can't believe your words, who else can?"
Xue Tianqing said helplessly: "The world is dangerous. If you are not careful, even gods will sometimes fall into the trap of mortals. Do you know that the clothes we are wearing were stolen by me? I cursed as soon as I opened the door. Do you think they will give away clothes to Us? If we steal, let alone those mortals!"
Unexpectedly, these words offended Qingyue, and she immediately prepared to take off her clothes and send them back.
Xue Tianqing tried to persuade him, but Qingyue gave up the idea, but she ignored him all the way.
Xue Tianqing's words had no effect. In desperation, he could only point to Liangjie Town not far away and said: "We are about to enter the town. Please control your temper. Don't let people think that I am a human trafficker. I'll send it to the government."
