Evergreen Immortal

With a creak.

The door was pushed open.

Yao Xue was seen wearing a light green dress, looking like a goddess in the moonlight, with her hands behind her back, standing at the door.

Li Rui was unmoved:

"Miss Yao, is there something wrong?"

Yao Xue bit her teeth lightly, as if she was hesitating about what to say.

Li Rui's face became strange.

Moonlight.

Man and woman.

The atmosphere was so intense that he was really afraid that Yao Xue had M tendencies and said she liked him.

"Miss Yao?"

Li Rui decided to stop this bad trend from spreading.

You are my amulet!

The amulet should just do its job.

Yao Xue finally mustered up the courage: "Senior Li, I'm sorry, I've been lying to you."

"Huh?"

Li Rui didn't expect Yao Xue to say this in the middle of the night.

So she was lying to me, so it's okay.

He still looked calm: "Miss Yao, why do you say that?"

Yao Xue bit her red lips, lowered her head and said: "Senior Li saved my life, so I should treat him with sincerity. I came to the senior's house this time because of my inner demon."

Inner demon?

Li Rui raised his eyebrows slightly.

He had long thought that Yao Xue and Qu Chengfeng came to his house, and it must not be as simple as repaying a favor.

Even if it was to repay a favor, there was no need to choose this method.

But he didn't expect it to be such an abstract reason as the inner demon.

Yao Xue hurriedly explained: "Since that day, Master said that I was possessed by the inner demon, and the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it, so I came to bother the senior."

"."

Li Rui was speechless.

He knew something about the inner demon.

Inner demon, that is the Taoist term, in fact, it can be understood as obsession.

Taoism emphasizes tranquility and inaction, and a clear state of mind.

Although it is not necessary to purify the six senses and cut off the seven emotions and six desires like the Buddhists, obsession cannot interfere with practice.

Obviously, Yao Xue's inner demon is him.

I, an old man, became the inner demon of this beautiful girl.

Li Rui was a little amused and confused.

Who should he go to for justice?

Perhaps Yao Xue also thought that the inner demon was too absurd, and her pretty face flushed: "Senior."

She was about to speak.

A line of small words appeared in front of Li Rui.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the primary plot of the achievement of the fairy couple - bond. ]

[Love often starts with bond, which may be good or bad. This is an important step for the fairy couple to achieve. Become a fairy and go into the world together! ]

[Complete the task of bond, rewards are being calculated.]

[Task score C. ]

[Obtain 20 achievement points! ]

[Name: Li Rui]

[Age: 10]

[Talent: Wugu, Outstanding Comprehension, Wisdom Eye]

[Kung Fu: Changchun Kung, Dragon Traveling to the Nine Heavens]

[Achievement: 80/100]

Li Rui looked at the word "Bond" on the panel.

The corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

Good news: The previous conjecture came true. The goal of the immortal couple achievement does not have to be one person, which will make it easier to brush the achievement in the future.

Bad news: I was favored by the fairy.

"Senior."

"Senior?"

Hearing Yao Xue's call, Li Rui's mind was withdrawn from the panel.

Seeing Li Rui, who was calm and confident in everything, Yao Xue's beautiful face turned redder: "I also know that this matter is too abrupt."

Stop!

Li Rui felt that something was wrong as he spoke, so he said quickly: "Don't worry, Miss Yao, the inner demon will naturally resolve over time, so it's okay to stay here for a while longer."

Yao Xue's big eyes flickered.

She originally thought that she would be kicked out of the house for saying such a ridiculous thing, but she didn't expect the senior to be so reasonable.

"Thank you, senior, I won't bother you anymore."

After that.

She turned around quickly and ran away from Li Rui's sight in small steps as if she was chased by a wolf.

Li Rui chuckled and shook his head.

Bang.

The door was closed.

Yao Xue ran into the inner room and leaned against the door with her back, the blush on her cheeks still not gone.

"Strange, my heart beats so fast!"

No words all night.

Early morning.

Li Rui practiced as usual. He had changed the White Ape Sword into his own Changchun Gong, so he didn't worry about being seen by others.

The long sword moved very slowly in the air, and it didn't seem to have any killing power.

The first person to get up was not Wang Zhao or Yang Yong.

But Qu Chengfeng.

Qu Chengfeng just glanced at Li Rui, then said indifferently, "I'm going out," and left without looking back.

Strictly speaking, Li Rui and Qu Chengfeng were tenants and landlords.

Who has ever seen a landlord care about the life and death of a tenant?

Once he left Li's house, Qu Chengfeng was no longer his concern, and it had nothing to do with him.

Li Rui looked down on Qu Chengfeng, a disciple of the immortal sect, from the bottom of his heart.

Wait until he finishes practicing.

Wang Zhao and Yang Yong then walked out of the door.

The two were busy making breakfast.

The house finally had the atmosphere of fireworks, and Li Rui had nothing to do, so he also helped.

When Yao Xue came out of the room, a pot of steaming meat porridge and a few plates of refreshing green vegetables were already in front of her.

The few of them simply finished their meal.

Yao Xue returned to her room.

Li Rui also knew that Yao Xue was trying to conquer his inner demon again.

He sighed.

I want to tell this young and beautiful girl that some things cannot be forced, and you can't rush them.

Especially the inner demon.

The more anxious you are, the harder it will be to get rid of it.

But at his age, he certainly understands the principle of talking about deep things with shallow friends. Maybe he can say it in the future, but it is definitely not possible now.

After packing up, Yang Yong went out early and couldn't wait to find his poker friends.

No gambling.

If you win, you just say you are awesome. This kind of time-killing and intellectual project, of course, Li Rui has no reason to dissuade.

Yang Yong is already in his sixties, and in his previous life, he would have retired long ago.

Li Rui certainly won't force an old man to work hard.

Not every old man can be as open-minded as him.

But Wang Zhao is different.

Ever since the Red Dragon Horse came to the stable, Li Rui found that this kid didn't have a good talent for martial arts, but he might be good at raising horses.

I didn't see that he almost slept in the stable last night.

So, he took Wang Zhao to the horse inspection hall at noon.

With his patrol status, it was a bit unrealistic to want to turn Wang Zhao, who didn't know martial arts, into a soldier in the Horse Guard Hall, but it was not a problem to arrange him as a free servant.

In the Horse Guard Hall, Wang Zhao could also learn more about horse-raising skills.

Before, he learned some superficial horse-raising skills from Li Rui in Zhu's house. If he could become a horse-raising officer in the future, his status and treatment would be no worse than those of a qualified warrior.

After doing this.

Li Rui strolled to the Tiger Cavalry Camp.

Although Ning Zhongtian gave him leave, he didn't disturb the fairy's mood with his "heart demon".

In order to avoid the counterproductive effect of hanging around in front of the fairy.

As soon as Li Rui walked into the camp.

He saw Liang Ge and others gathered in a circle, watching Tan Hu and Ge Hong fighting.

"Get up!"

Tan Hu shouted, threw away the Xuanhua axe in his hand, and hugged Ge Hong's waist like a bull.

As soon as Ge Hong was hugged, he was thrown to the ground by Tan Hu.

"Ouch."

Tan Hu let go of his hand, and Ge Hong lay on the ground with a mask of pain and wailed.

For a long time.

Then he caught his breath and stood up with difficulty.

"Did Brother Li really fight you to a draw?"

Since the last time in Willow Village, Ge Hong and Tan Hu have become brothers. After all, they have been eating cold winds for more than ten days, so they would come to Benhuqi to hang out for a few rounds from time to time.

Today, he heard from Liang He that Li Rui and Tan Hu had fought to a draw.

He excitedly went to Tan Hu to learn from him.

Everyone in Anningwei knew that Tan Hu was born with a golden body.

He had thought about fighting for a long time, but he was always worried that he could not withstand Tan Hu's brute force. But since Li Rui was fine, he should not have any problem either.

But until he really started fighting, he realized how powerful Tan Hu was.

With a huge strength, ordinary people could not resist it at all, and he was defeated in just a few moves.

As he said.

He saw Li Rui who appeared in the crowd at some point in his peripheral vision.

Or is it true that what you say comes true.

Ge Hong supported his waist and limped to Li Rui: "Brother Li, how did you tie with Manniu?"

Li Rui, who was 70 years old, could tie, but he, a 40-year-old boy, was defeated miserably.

He was somewhat depressed.

Li Rui smiled and said: "I was dodging with light skills, which can't be considered a tie. If it was a life-and-death fight, I would definitely lose."

Ge Hong suddenly realized.

He glared at Liang He.

He was deceived by this kid. In Liang He's words, it was clear that Li Rui fought back and forth with Tan Hu with superb swordsmanship.

Seeing this.

Liang He cried out that he was wronged.

In his eyes, Li Rui just drew his sword, so how could it not be considered fighting with swordsmanship?

Ge Hong was a generous person, so he quickly forgot about it and said proudly: "Brother Tan, I am not as good as you today. I will fight you again after I cultivate my Qi."

Now it was Tan Hu's turn to envy: "Brother Ge, have you cultivated your true Qi?"

Ge Hong couldn't hide the pride on his face: "Almost."

Then he looked at Li Rui: "I am still not as good as Brother Li. He cultivated his true Qi at the eighth level, but it is not easy to gather Qi into a shape with the Flying Dragon in the Sky Diagram."

His words were very pertinent.

The dragon shape sounds domineering, and it is possible that those who gather Qi into a shape are all geniuses.

It is a miracle to cultivate Qi, and it is difficult to gather Qi into a shape!

Of course, Li Rui would not tell Ge Hong and Tan Hu that he had already gathered Qi and was almost formed.

He stayed in the Benhu Camp until dusk.

He returned to the house.

Yao Xue still showed no signs of going out, so Li Rui asked Yang Yong to send the food to the room.

Not eating will not break the inner demon, but will only starve people to death.

Yao Xue didn't refuse, but she didn't go out either.

After dinner.

Li Rui practiced sword in the courtyard again, and then returned to the room.

He circulated the true qi according to the Dragon Traveling in the Nine Skies Diagram.

Xuanqing Qi surged out from Dantian and circulated around the body. Since he could circulate Qi for a large circle at a time, Xuanqing Qi has changed from the previous thin thread to the thickness of a little finger.

Just when he completed the 72 circles and Xuanqing Qi returned to Dantian.

The next moment——

The true qi had just condensed into the double form of the fairy dragon, and Yinglong circulated between the clear and turbid qi.

Suddenly!

The clear and turbid qi suddenly exploded and filled the whole body.

Li Rui's eyes lit up:

"Xianting protects the body!"
