When he and Ye Xuanxin returned to Qianqiu Gate, Qian Shu was in a daze.

The originally towering Yimen is now covered with dust, all autumn leaves have fallen, and has even become a bird's nest.

The bright moon hung high, making it look very empty and remote.

The three characters of Qianqiumen, with dragons and phoenixes flying around, are now covered with gray and white bird droppings.

Qianqiumen is now so desolate that it has almost been forgotten by the world.

"Senior sister, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for a long time... Senior sister? Why are you back too?"

Ye Rumo is about the same age as Ye Xuanxin. He is a little chubby and naive, and his reactions are always slow. But fortunately, he is well-behaved and cute and can get along with everyone.

Qian Shu said calmly: "Is it possible that I won't be able to come back?"

Ye Rumo shook his head quickly, his eyes widened: "Of course not, senior sister, I am so happy that you can come back. The last time I saw you, I was still..."

He calculated anxiously for a while: "It was eighty-seven days ago, and now it's autumn. The leaves that were still green when you left have begun to turn yellow."

Qian Shu was stunned when a maple leaf happened to fall.

Qian Shu reached out to catch it. Through the insect eyes on the maple leaves, she seemed to be able to imagine how they got here during this time.

She clearly wanted to speak to them softly just now, but unconsciously, she felt a sense of indifference, as if she was thousands of miles away.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit cold, Ye Xuanxin hurriedly threw the big cock to him.

"Ye Rumo, go take care of this big rooster and pluck the feathers. Then go to the backyard and pull some vegetables. We will eat ground pot chicken tonight."

Ye Rumo hurriedly caught the rooster, but when he threw it, the straw rope holding the rooster's feet suddenly broke. The rooster's snow-white wings spread out and began to flap vigorously.

"Ah! My face!"

Ye Rumo was slapped hard by the big rooster, and he was suddenly blinded. When he loosened his hands, the big rooster let out a cry, stepped on his head, and flew up the branch.

His hands trembled and he formed a seal: "Wood, wood cane, wood cane, what are they?"

Qianshu:......

Ye Xuanxin knocked him: "Look how stupid you are, why can't you even understand what you're saying? It's because of the vines!"

"Oh oh, wooden vines are entangled!"

The chopstick-thick vines in Ye Rumo's hands were interrupted before they could grow.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise, and a black object was thrown directly in front of Ye Rumo, scaring him so much that the vines retracted again.

Ye Rumo's eyes widened. After seeing the object clearly, he lost his voice and said, "Second Senior Brother? You, are you injured?"

Chen Zibai spat out a mouthful of black blood, his narrow and deep eyes were gloomy.

He wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with his torn, dirty and dirty sleeves. When he saw Qian Shu with his snake-like eyes, his pupils narrowed slightly.

"Hmph, do you really think that no one will dare to touch you after you escape home? Chen Zibai, you are just a coward. Even your sect is unworthy of publicity."

Several people came with swords, and the leader among them was a rough man.

Even the loose white clothes couldn't cover his muscles. The man had rare short hair and a map-like birthmark on his face.

Qian Shu had some impression of him. He was a disciple of the alchemy elder Mu Dan, Mu Lianyu, with a single spiritual root of the fire system and a twelfth level of Qi training.

She had faced off against him before. Although Qianshu was at the same level as him, she was not at a disadvantage because of their incompatible attributes.

The follower beside Mu Lianyu hurriedly said: "Chen Zibai, please return Brother Lianyu's Nine Songs of Resurrection Pill to him. It took him seven, seven and forty-nine days to practice it. He has to control the heat every day. Not one point more, not one point less, our senior brother has lost more than ten kilograms in his lifetime!"

Mu Lianyu was currently in a serious state of darkness. He relied on the Sober Pill to get through those forty-nine days. Now his hope of being promoted to the second-level alchemist was stolen by him. Mu Lianyu was so angry that he couldn't even beat him to death. Calculated.

His chest heaved violently, and he said angrily: "If you come back now, I will forget about it and pretend that nothing happened. If you don't come back, then don't blame me for not caring about our friendship!"

Chen Zibai gritted his teeth, his eyes were stubborn, and he remained silent. He did not beg for mercy, nor did he cry out in pain.

Mu Lianyu couldn't bear it any longer, so he raised his heavy sword and struck, causing a sea of ​​​​fire to spread, staining the fallen leaves around him, and quickly burning them.

"Okay, since you are so stubborn and unwilling to speak, then I will make it impossible for you to speak!"

Qian Shu sighed deeply inwardly and put her hand on the hilt of the sword. She couldn't really let Mu Lianyu seriously injure Chen Zibai again in front of her.

Suddenly, Xiao Qinglong's voice sounded in her mind.

"Don't use magic anymore. When I met you, you were seriously injured. Now that you have used magic twice, you don't want to die?"

Qian Shu replied in her heart: "Who made me the senior sister?"

When Mu Lianyu's heavy sword came down with fierce fire, Chen Zibai subconsciously stretched out his arm to block it in front of him, while his other hand tightly protected his pocket.

Hit him, hit him. After enough beating, he won't be in pain anymore.

But the expected pain did not appear, and a cold shadow flashed across, firmly blocking Chen Zibai.

"clang!"

The two swords connected, Mu Lianyu's heavy sword was bounced away, and the flames could not burn through the ice.

The ice sword has a long blade and is covered with frost, making it untouchable.

Chen Zibai looked up at her master. The sword energy was frantic, causing her black hair to fly. The silver plum blossoms on her hair shone brightly in the moonlight. She turned her head slightly.

The reflection on the silver plum blossoms fell into her eyes, like stars in the middle of the night, distant and bright.

"Qianshu? Why are you causing trouble again? This is a matter between me and this kid. You stay away."

Mu Lianyu was pushed back a few steps by the ice sword, frowning and roaring at her.

Qian Shu swung his sword again, and the ice extinguished the remaining fire.

"Don't be angry yet. My junior brother is not a petty thief. Please give me some time to ask questions clearly."

Mu Lianyu was very suspicious: "You have not taken care of the sect's affairs for a long time. You have always been arrogant and cold. Why did you change your temper today?"

Qian Shu's voice was calm: "I have failed in my responsibility in the past, but I will not do so in the future. If he really steals your things, I will definitely not protect him."

Mu Lianyu thought about it again and again, and finally snorted coldly: "I think you were seriously injured in Yuntai Mountain today, so I will give you this face and won't argue with you.

But after three days, I will come to get my elixir. If he still doesn't return it, then we will go to my master to reason. People like him with unclean hands and feet should be expelled from the master! "

After Mu Lianyu and others left, Ye Xuanxin and Ye Rumo dared to help Chen Zibai up.

Qian Shu asked: "Did you take his elixir? If you did, why did you steal other people's things?"

Chen Zibai's brows were full of gloom: "Are you in charge? Since Master left, you have never been able to take care of us for a day!"
