"I used to be a disciple of Longqiguan, but I was ignorant when I was young and came down the mountain early."
Meng Qiuhe said with emotion that it is easy for people to recall the past when they are old, and he began to talk about his experiences when he was young.
At first Qing'er just dealt with him, but when he heard him mention Taoist priest, Qing'er became interested.
She already knew that the reason why she was able to enter Longqi Temple and was cared for by her elders was all because of Daozu's appreciation. She didn't know why Daozu valued her, but she was very grateful to Daozu, so she felt very grateful for anything about Daozu. interest.
The two of them just walked and chatted.
Meng Qiuhe's face was full of smiles. He hadn't felt this relaxed for many years.
Qing'er listened carefully. She was surprised. She didn't expect that Meng Qiuhe was once the Taoist priest's senior brother. When she heard this sentence, she once suspected that the old man was bragging.
But as she listened, she felt that it was true, because Meng Qiuhe mentioned many respected seniors in Longqi Temple.
for a long time.
The two came to a small pavilion and sat down. Qing'er was worried that he was too tired, so he took a rest first.
Meng Qiuhe looked at Qing'er and said with a smile: "You look so much like Qiu Shuang when you were young. I even suspected that you were reincarnated by her."
Qing'er shook his head and said: "There is no such thing as reincarnation in this world, it is just a mortal's delusion."
"Yes, it is a mortal's delusion. I have pursued martial arts all my life, just to surpass ordinary people and not to be inferior to others, but in the end I found that it was just a hard struggle."
Meng Qiuhe sighed endlessly.
Qing'er changed the subject and asked, "Are you coming to Longqi Temple just to revisit your old place?"
She didn't invite Meng Qiuhe to stay because she always maintained doubts and vigilance in her heart, and she couldn't make the decision.
Meng Qiuhe smiled and said, "Of course there are other things."
"What's up?"
Qing'er asked curiously. At this time, a figure walked not far away, it was Qing Ku.
Qing Ku saw Qing'er alone with a strange old man and was a little worried, so he came to take a look.
Meng Qiuhe looked at Qingku and said softly: "I am already very old, and I don't have many years to live. Before I die, I want to fulfill a long-cherished wish, which is to challenge the current Daoist ancestor of Da Jing."
Upon hearing this, Qing'er couldn't help but widen her eyes, subconsciously stood up and moved away from Meng Qiuhe.
Seeing her reaction, Qing Ku immediately rushed over, stopped in front of her, and stared at Meng Qiuhe warily. Then, his expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Meng Qiuhe?"
Qing'er asked cautiously: "Uncle Qingku, do you know him?"
Qing Ku snorted coldly: "The traitor of Longqi Temple was once the second senior brother of Taoist Master and me. No, he was also the eldest disciple. Later, he led people to forcefully break into Longqi Temple and insisted on competing with the Taoist Master. He was After the Taoist leader was defeated, he went down the mountain in despair."
He had a bad impression of Meng Qiuhe, even disgusted.
Especially after Meng Qiushuang's death, he hated Meng Qiuhe even more. Decades later, he would not come back to visit his biological sister.
Meng Qiuhe was not angry. He looked at Qing Ku and said with emotion: "You are already so old. Time is not forgiving."
Qing Ku is also over seventy years old, with gray hair, but his body and bones look stronger than Meng Qiuhe's.
"You are not welcome at Longqi Temple, get out." Qingku said coldly.
Meng Qiuhe smiled and said: "Junior brother, I am indeed sorry for Long Qiguan, but I am about to die. For the sake of being a disciple of the same sect, can you help me ask for an audience with the Taoist ancestor?"
Hearing this, Qing Ku's heart softened. When people get old, they have to face death. Qing Ku sometimes worries about when he will die.
He asked cautiously: "What do you want from Senior Brother Changsheng?"
Qing'er said behind him: "He wants to challenge the Taoist priest!"
Qing Ku frowned.
Meng Qiuhe spread his hands and said: "It's just asking for death. If we, the martial arts practitioners, die in battle, we will have no regrets. You don't have to worry about my plot. He is the Taoist who can move mountains. I will definitely be defeated. I just want to be in front of him." Before you die, let’s experience this world’s best martial arts.”
Qing Ku was still hesitant, fearing that Meng Qiuhe would play tricks.
At this moment, a voice sounded: "Let him come over."
Qing Ku and three other people heard it.
Meng Qiuhe smiled and stood up slowly.
Qing'er looked around and saw no one else, but there were pilgrims passing by in the distance. She asked cautiously: "Is that the Taoist priest's voice just now?"
There was a hint of anticipation in her tone.
Qing Ku nodded, turned around and said, "Come with me."
He stepped forward, and Meng Qiuhe followed him out of the small pavilion. When he passed by Qing'er, he took out a secret book from his arms and said with a smile: "Meeting is fate. This secret book is what I have been looking for all my life. I wanted to It was taught to Qiu Shuang, but since she is no longer here, I will leave it to you. Of course, if you don’t want to learn it, just burn it.”
After giving the secret book to Qing'er, Meng Qiuhe followed Qing Ku's footsteps.
Qing'er held the secret book and looked at Meng Qiuhe's back. For some reason, her heart felt a little sour.
She didn't know what kind of person Meng Qiuhe was when he was young, but after getting along with her just now, Meng Qiuhe's attitude towards her was indeed very good. The thought of him going to die here made her a little sad.
But she thought of the Taoist Priest again, and the discomfort in her heart disappeared immediately. She hummed softly: "You will bring all the trouble on yourself if you keep making trouble for the Taoist Priest."
She shook her head and walked towards the mountain gate.
After half a cup of tea.
Qing Ku took Meng Qiuhe to Jiang Changsheng's courtyard. Jiang Changsheng was practicing under the tree. Hua Jianxin and Wangchen were watching Jiang Jian practice his halberd. Bai Qi was taking a nap and Bailong was lying on the mountainside.
Hua Jianxin and Wangchen turned around and saw someone behind Qing Ku, and couldn't help but be curious.
When Meng Qiuhe saw Jiang Changsheng again, he suddenly fell into a trance when he saw him just like he was sixty years ago.
Since taking the Zhuyan Pill at the age of eighteen, Jiang Changsheng has maintained his eighteen-year-old appearance, which made Meng Qiuhe recall every detail of that year.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said, "Second Senior Brother, long time no see."
He heard what Meng Qiuhe said. He was about to die, and he didn't want to worry about it anymore, so he decided to fulfill Meng Qiuhe's long-cherished wish.
When he was two years old, his senior brother Li Changqing almost accidentally killed him while practicing martial arts, but it was Meng Qiuhe who saved him. He would never forget this kindness, after all, there were many disasters when he was young.
Meng Qiuhe said with emotion: "Long time no see, I didn't expect you to call me senior brother again."
He suddenly realized that Jiang Changsheng had always respected him since he was a child. Even though his martial arts skills had greatly improved, he still respected him. It was just that he was stimulated and jealous of Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng stood up and said: "Let's get started. There is no need to reminisce about the past. I will bury you and Senior Sister Qiu Shuang together. Although you are sorry for Long Qiguan, Senior Sister Qiu Shuang has always missed you."
Hearing this, Meng Qiuhe smiled.
The two flew high into the sky. Jiang Jian stopped, came to Hua Jianxin, and asked curiously: "Master, grandma, who is he? Master's senior brother? Is he very strong?"
He was very excited, finally seeing someone challenge his master.
Hua Jianxin sighed and said, "That's right."
High in the sky, Meng Qiuhe began to move his skills, mobilizing his own skills, and his momentum exploded like a mountain torrent.
Jiang Changsheng was not surprised that he broke through to the gods. Many years ago, Meng Qiuhe's incense value had reached 500, so his strength was definitely not weak.
Meng Qiuhe raised his right palm, with a stern face, and said: "Junior Brother Changsheng, I don't want you to be merciful, please help me, kill me with your strongest martial arts, and let me die without regrets!"
Jiang Changsheng looked calm and said: "Okay, Second Senior Brother, take over."
He raised his right hand, and a golden leaf appeared in his hand.
Meng Qiuhe frowned, wondering what Jiang Changsheng meant, why did he take out a gold leaf?
At this moment, Jiang Changsheng suddenly threw out the golden scales and jade leaves.
Poof——
Meng Qiuhe's forehead was pierced, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"this……"
Meng Qiuhe trembled all over, and his vitality quickly disappeared.
He just fell down.
Jiang Changsheng flew over, caught his body, then flew to Qing Ku, handed it to Qing Ku, and said, "Bury it near Senior Sister Qiu Shuang."
Qing Ku was stunned. After hearing his words, he came back to his senses and quickly took Meng Qiuhe's body. Meng Qiuhe still kept his dead eyes, but his eyes changed. In addition to shock, he was more... Relieved.
Jiang Changsheng turned around and walked towards the Earth Spirit Tree. Jiang Jian ran over excitedly and asked, "Master, what kind of martial arts was that just now? I saw a golden light, but I didn't see it clearly at all."
"I can't tell you about this martial arts until you reach the golden body state."
"Ah? Golden Body Realm. Apart from you, there is no second Golden Body Realm in the entire Great Scenery. How long do I have to wait!"
"You don't have confidence?"
"How is it possible? Just wait, I will definitely reach the golden state!"
Jiang Jian caught the challenge and immediately went to practice.
Jiang Changsheng sat under the tree and continued to practice.
After a while.
[In the twenty-eighth year of Qianwu, your former senior brother Meng Qiuhe came to challenge you with the determination to die. You successfully survived his challenge, survived a murderous disaster, and received the survival reward - Zashu's weapon refining. Technique'】
Jiang Changsheng showed a smile and silently thanked Meng Qiuhe, and the unknown melancholy in his heart also dissipated.
Meng Qiuhe's death had not spread except to the older generation of disciples. Qing'er had been guarding in front of the mountain gate and knew that Meng Qiuhe was dead before he saw Meng Qiuhe coming down the mountain.
She couldn't understand why Meng Qiuhe had to die in the hands of the Taoist priest.
…
Thirty years after Qianwu, Jiang Jian was already fourteen years old.
Under the tempering of Jiang Changsheng's Heavenly Thunder Mind Technique, his body has been growing, and now his physical strength has reached an extremely terrifying level, not even inferior to Ping'an of the same age.
On this day, Jiang Xiu came to visit Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Jian came over and said, "Brother, can you change my weapon? This Fang Tian Hua Ji is not enough."
Jiang Xiu's eyes widened and he said, "Five thousand kilograms is not enough? Are you kidding me?"
Jiang Jian curled his lips and said: "I need weapons that make me feel difficult to hold, so that I can better strengthen my body."
Jiang Xiu was silent, looking at his ninth brother with an expression that looked like a monster.
After a few breaths, Jiang Xiu said helplessly: "This Fangtian Painted Halberd was already made by the strongest blacksmith in Da Jing. If the weight is increased, its shape will also be increased, and it is no longer suitable for use as a human weapon."
Jiang Jian was very disappointed when he heard this.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly said: "I will make weapons for Jian'er and ask your father to find the hardest material."
