After leaving that piece of land, the three of Jing Li headed north all the way. After flying for about half a day, a city jumped into their eyes. The mosses all showed a sign of decay.
They didn't stay here. When they flew over the city, Jing Li subconsciously glanced at the city. Like the cities he had been to before, there was quite a lot of people on the street, but it was still hard to hide a sense of defeat. feeling.
Qiu Da wanted to use Yuanshen Cone to deal with Cang Qi, but he never thought that stealing chickens would cost him a lot of rice. Instead of injuring Cang Qi, he put his own life in it and gave Cang Qi a bunch of information for nothing. .
From Qiu Da's consciousness, they finally knew what the current situation in the cultivation world was like.
Before they fell into the ground, the demons had already moved frequently, unwilling to be lonely, and many small sects suffered because of this. In the past 100 years, the battle between Taoism and demons has not only failed to compete, but has intensified.
Today's Dongling Prefecture, due to the struggle between the two sides, has been divided into two parts, with the boundless abyss as the boundary, and the northwest has completely fallen under the control of the demons.
In the past hundred years, there have been constant disputes in Dongling Prefecture. Not only are the two families of Taoism and demons fighting, but the reckless actions of the demons have also made the demons and the demons a deadly feud.
Many forces disintegrated in the flames of war, and more are rising.
With a common enemy, those sectarian forces have united unprecedentedly. Some forces with old grudges have temporarily reached a united front and formed an alliance. They will only care about it after the completion of the exorcism plan. The old accounts between each other; even the monster clan who have been closed for a long time and rarely contacted the monks, at certain times, were willing to help each other with the latter.
Since Dongling Prefecture is divided into two, there is a boundary between the two. Although the surrounding area of the Boundless Abyss is dangerous, no one would want to live there. Those who survive near the middle line.Under the premise that the battle between Taoism and demons is becoming more and more severe, life for those in the middle has become extremely difficult.
It is impossible for the members of the Dao League to take into account all corners of Dongling State. There are always people in some places who live under the oppression of the demons.
And where they are now is such a gray middle ground.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful, but it is not a place where the aura of heaven and earth gathers. In this land, the most powerful is Zuimenglou. The owner is a peak monk in the late Yuanying period. An elder in the mid-Yuanying period and three Jindan monks have such confidence, and the location is relatively remote, and there is no outside force to intervene, which is enough for them to secure the top spot in the local area.
Until the arrival of the demons.
Just like the demon clan approached the monks in order to get rid of the demons; in the demon clan's camp, there are also many former monks who have taken refuge in them. One of the giants openly rebelled and joined forces with the demons. While being abused by others, people had to recognize the reality. Xuantianzong dared to rebel, and he had his own confidence. It took away a lot of sects attached to it. You must know that Xuantianzong used to be the first-rate force in the cultivation world, and it is not only those small sects who are attached to it, there are also many first-rate and second-rate forces.
There are also demons who are ruthless and do everything they can, and Xuantianzong and others are intimidating and seductive. In the following decades, some people or forces occasionally defected and chose the opposite.
Just like the Qiu Brothers, they were originally just a group of casual cultivators who used to kill people and rob treasures, but after being approached by the demons, they obediently boarded the thief boat without even a trace of struggle, and became the masters of the demons. knife.
As I said before, this land is not considered a treasure land of geomantic omen, so the big forces look down on it. With few outsiders kicking the pavilion, Zuimenglou firmly holds the absolute control of this place; it is precisely because In this way, when the demons sent people to nibble at the little ants in the middle line, they didn't send any experts, they just sent the Qiu brothers away, and some of their subordinates came to clean up the mess.
This place is not only Zuimenglou's cultivation sect, but also several sects such as Qinghefang. The Qiu brothers do not have an advantage in numbers, but there are also advantages of having fewer people.
There are two Nascent Souls sitting in the Drunken Dream Building, and the master's cultivation base is slightly higher than Qiu Da, so the Qiu Brothers did not directly use it to attack, but took out those forces that were attached to it step by step.
And the owner of Zuimenglou is obviously very clear about the reason why Qiu Da and the others don't come to her directly, and even more clear that if something happens to him, the remaining elder in the building will not be Qiu Da's opponent at all. Menglou will fall into the hands of the other party, so there is a lot of caution in doing things.
In the same way, without absolute certainty, Qiu Da did not dare to have a direct confrontation with the owner of Zuimenglou, for fear of being crazily counterattacked by the other party—anyway, if this consumption continues, the unlucky ones will definitely not be able to fight back. will be myself.
The two sides have been in such a strange stalemate for several years, and finally, someone couldn't sit still—the person above the Qiu Brothers thought that this matter had dragged on for so long and hadn't been resolved, so he directly set a deadline; As the alliance dwindled and the situation went from bad to worse, the letter of appeal for help was finally answered.
What Jing Li and the two saw in the projection was the inner sect disciple of Qinghefang who had been murdered by Qiu Er. The group of them went to a town under the order of their teacher, and wanted to save a few days ago. Who would have guessed that the fellow who was taken away by the family died before leaving the teacher.
At this time, they were heading north, planning to go to Zuimenglou to find out. From Qiu Da's memory, it was known that the person above them, because he was dissatisfied with their delay, issued a deadline, They also sent a few other people to help Qiu Da and the others, and the one who took the lead was also a late Nascent Soul, counting the time, I am afraid that they have already attacked Zuimenglou.
Following the general direction learned from Qiu Da's memory, the three of them continued to travel northward, and finally arrived near their destination before the end of time.
The reason why Zuimenglou is called Zuimenglou is not that their school is located in a building, but that there is a strange stone in the station, which looks like a pavilion, and it is so ingenious, so it got its name.
Seeing the strangely shaped red sandalwood-colored boulder towering into the sky in front of him, Jing Li knew that they had reached the boundary of Zuimenglou.
At the foot of the mountain there is a large formation protecting the mountain, but there are no disciples guarding the gate, the three feel a little strange.
Hu Yizhou looked around, but didn't see anyone, "Could it be that we came late? The people in Zuimenglou have been killed by something?"
Otherwise, why would there be no one in front of the mountain gate? However, it seems that no corpses have been seen...
"It shouldn't be..."
Jing Li slightly hesitantly made up his mind, spent half a day on the road, can't it be such a coincidence?
But around here, there are some traces of fighting.
"The big formation protecting the mountain is still here." Cang Qi observed for a moment, dispelling the negative guesses in Jing Li's mind, "If the demons really succeed, they won't just leave this trace."
Jing Li thought for a while, and it was the same reason, even if the demons used some dirty methods to poison or something, this place would not be preserved so well.
However, what is going on, I have to wait until I go in to find out. Now I can't even find a gatekeeper disciple. Jing Li was thinking about how to inform them of someone's visit without disturbing the Zuimenglou mountain guard formation, when he heard Cang Qi Suddenly, "Someone is coming."
Jing Li looked in the direction Cang Qi was looking at, and saw a small black dot flying from far away from the sky, when he could get in, the little black dot split into two, then divided into three, and divided into four , and then counted them in detail, exactly four, the actions were quite hasty, as if they were in a hurry.
The leader was a woman in a primrose-colored skirt, with cloudy hair on her temples, and all the scattered hair on her temples was raised back because of the rush of flying. She probably noticed a few of them, turned her head slightly, and met with the companion behind her. talking about something.
Apart from her, the other three women have different hairstyles and hairpins, but their clothes are very similar, and they look standard. After noticing the three of them, the four of them spread out in a wild goose formation, at a slightly slower speed than before. They got on some, but they didn't make Jingli and the others wait too long. After a cup of tea, they all flew in front of them.
The four women stopped two feet away from Jing Li and the others, but they did not fall.
"I don't know how many friends..."
The leading female cultivator took a look at the three people in front of her, and her pupils shrank suddenly. She was far away and hadn't seen them clearly before. Now that she saw them face to face, she realized that two of the three people's cultivation bases were beyond her ability. Seeing through, I couldn't help being more cautious in my words. "...What is the so-called reason for coming to my Zuimenglou?"
Although the three of them didn't look like the kind of youngsters, but recently the screwdriver has become more and more nasty, and people have to guard against it.
As expected, he was a disciple of Zuimenglou.
Jing Li briefly talked about meeting the Qiu Brothers. At first, the female cultivator was skeptical, but when she heard that all the disciples in Qinghefang had been murdered by the Qiu Brothers, a look of sadness flashed across her face. The disciples of Zuimenglou couldn't help exclaiming when they heard this; and when Jing Li said that the Qiu brothers had all received their karma and couldn't continue to stir up trouble, they all cheered and said repeatedly, "Yes!"
Hearing Jing Li's future explanation, the leader was overjoyed, but there was still a trace of hesitation in her heart. No wonder she was like this. She was really frightened by those devils. Not long ago, there was a devil who pretended to be a small faction The disciples came to ask for help, if the senior sister of the team hadn't been careful and made a quick decision, the small group of people who were tricked out by the devil might not be able to come back.
He was happy to hear that Jing Li and the others came to help on their own initiative, but how to confirm their identities was a real problem.
And just leave it alone, it's even worse, if what they say is true, then you can't easily offend——Qiu Da is in the late Yuanying stage, and it's all in the hands of these people, so these people should be How capable?
He was happy on the face, but in fact he was calculating the gains and losses quickly in his mind, and then he deliberately tried to say, "If the three fellow daoists can come to help me, I will be grateful to everyone in Zuimenglou. I don't know how many fellow daoists will inherit... ?”
Two of the three were wearing casual clothes, and only one was wearing something that looked like a standard, but she couldn't tell which school it was.
"Senior brother and I are descended from the Jiuhua sect, and junior brother Hu is a disciple of the same school."
Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen are both big sects that have stood for thousands of years, but they are naturally alive and still in the leading position after a hundred years.
Female nun: "..."
You must have heard of Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen, after all, they are super first-class sects, but the problem is, she has never met people from these two sects, so how can she judge whether it is true or not.
If it's true, it's luck. If it's fake...then these devils are so courageous, they dare to impersonate...
Jing Li waited for a while, but he didn't wait for the other party to speak. Just as he was surprised, a beautiful woman in purple clothes suddenly came from the gate of Zuimenglou, and said with a charming smile, "Thank you, three friends from afar. Please."
When the three female cultivators in mid-air saw the door, they all rushed forward happily and shouted, "Elder Sister!"
The woman standing in front of Jingli and the others was startled for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that since the senior sister came out, she must have the landlord's permission to come to greet her, which also saved her from the trouble of entanglement.
The aura of the purple-clothed woman is very strong, not because her cultivation base is higher than that of Jing Li and others, but because she has just advanced and has not been completely stabilized before, so it is released like this.
The woman in purple glanced at Cang Qi, turned her eyes around Jing Li, and finally passed Hu Yizhou, retracted, turned around with a smile, and led them to the mountain gate.
Jing Li and the others intentionally fell behind a few steps, and the female cultivators they saw first hurriedly followed, and fell tightly beside the purple-clothed woman.
The woman in the primrose-colored skirt who spoke to Jing Li at the beginning glanced behind her carefully, leaned over to the woman in purple and said in a low voice, "Elder Sister, these people..."
The woman in purple shook her head slightly, and stopped her junior sister from speaking, "The landlord has his own decision."
Seeing that she hesitated to speak, knowing that she was worried, she patted her companion's hand lightly, and said slowly, "The truth can't be fake, and the fake can't be true."
Although he was at the end, Jing Li, who actually heard everything he said clearly, turned his head, looked at Cang Qi and blinked his eyes, which meant——it seemed that Zuimenglou was very careful.
Cang Qi's evaluation is very objective: eat a fall, gain a wisdom.
So, did you really get tricked...
The woman in purple led Jing Li and the three of them all the way forward, instead of taking them to the main building as Jing Li thought, she led them around a detour and entered an extremely spacious courtyard.
There are quite a few people in the courtyard, and many women are flying around the courtyard like butterflies. Although there are many people, they will not give people a sense of disorganization.
Taking a closer look, there are quite a few low tables placed in the courtyard, each of which is covered with delicacies, countless spiritual fruit wines, fine nectar and jade delicacies, full of fragrance, and delicious in color and taste.
——It was clearly hosting a banquet.
Jing Li is not so narcissistic that he thinks that Zuimenglou is entertaining them, and it is probably because they are entertaining some important guests that they are so grand and caring.
At this juncture, the one who can make Zuimenglou attach so much importance to hospitality... Presumably it must be the rescuers invited by the owner of Zuimenglou.
But...not everyone thinks about such an obvious thing——
For some reason, the low tables in the courtyard were not full.There was still one vacant, and the seat happened to be not far from them. Hu Yizhou was very sharp-eyed and wanted to pull Jing Li to a seat, but he did not forget to whisper to Jing Li, "This seat is too far back."
From Hu Yizhou's point of view, since the names of Guiyimen and Jiuhuazong have been reported, as long as the owner of Zuimenglou is not a badass, he must invite them to a banquet—it's not that he is thick-skinned, but that he went out before. , Those forces who learned about their master's inheritance all acted in this way.
Jing Li: "...Brother Hu is because you think too much."
The woman in purple walked into the courtyard with three unfamiliar faces, which already attracted the attention of some nearby people, but Hu Yizhou's actions attracted even more attention.
"Master, who are these three?"
There were only a handful of people who received the summons from the woman in primrose-colored clothes, so not everyone knew about the situation. As soon as the banquet started, they saw that the other party had brought someone in again, so they couldn't help being curious.
"Are these three senior brothers also from the Wuxiang Sect?"
The female cultivator who asked this question peeked behind the purple-clothed woman as she asked, her face was soon stained with pink.
Just as the woman in purple was distressed by being surrounded by fellow sects and unable to move forward, she suddenly heard someone from her superiors raise her voice. "But Qingxin is back?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the many disciples surrounding Chang Qingxin immediately dispersed, revealing the figure in the middle, Jing Li just pulled Hu Yizhou who was about to sit down, and stood still.
Chang Qingxin bowed and saluted, "Master, the disciple has brought three distinguished guests."
Sitting on the left side of the main building of Zuimeng Building, an old man whose low table was almost at the same position as the former heard the word "honored guest". On the table, he said calmly, "I didn't know that the host still has guests coming today, so I acted first, and I hope the three friends don't blame me."
Don't blame him for talking about three little friends, but he actually mentioned both parties - it's not him who has the final say on the opening of the banquet, but naturally the owner has the final say; wait.
The smile on the face of the owner of Zuimeng Building remained unchanged, Quan Duo couldn't understand the meaning of the old man's words, and waved to the disciple, "Qingxin, hurry up and invite guests to the table."
While speaking, there were actually two more low tables on the lower right. Although the position was not the same as that of the old man across from Zuimenglou, it was almost the same as the second table on the lower left.
Chang Qingxin was taken aback for a moment, but there was no change on his face, and he kindly led Jing Li and the other three to sit down. The old man saw it in his eyes and frowned slightly.
Hu Yizhou was quite happy - he just thought that the seats assigned to them were unreasonable, but he didn't expect that the owner of Zuimenglou was quite good, and the remedy was timely.
Jing Li followed Cang Qi and sat down behind the first low table. As soon as he sat down, he noticed the undisguised probing gaze from the other side.
Looking up, I saw a young man wearing a jade crown looking straight over, with a rather haughty expression on his face.
Jing Li, who was used to distinguishing the other party's identity from the clothes, glanced aside, and roughly saw the description of the opposite party and his own line of people.
The people sitting on their side, except for the three of them, should be from the side of Zuimenglou; as for the other side, from the third table onwards, the clothes are all of the same model, obviously from the same door; The one opposite them is probably a direct disciple—no matter which sect, they are surprisingly similar in terms of subduing them.
But he had never seen the uniforms of these disciples on the opposite side, and he couldn't recognize which one it was.
Jing Li calmly withdrew his gaze, and waited for the master of Zuimenglou to come after him—he couldn't believe that it was such a high standard for the other party to invite them to dinner so kindly without confirming their identities.
The delicacies and wines on the low table are really exquisite and overflowing with aura. Jing Li glanced at the plate of animal meat of an unknown animal in his hand. He hadn't eaten in the Bodhi tree for a hundred years. Seeing this, he felt Some kind.
I don't know what the plan of the owner of the Zuimeng Building is, he sees the tricks, Jing Li raises the wine pot, fills the wine cup in Cang Qi's hand, fills up his own, puts down the wine pot, Take the wine cup, lightly clink glasses with senior brother, and said with a smile, "I haven't eaten for 100 years."
Cang Qi laughed lightly when he heard this, took a plate of animal meat with the purest aura on the table, and put it in Jingli's plate. "A thousand miles away is Fufeng County. I heard that the sweet-scented osmanthus wine there is a must."
Jing Li's eyes lit up, who had turned on the food radar in an instant. Fufeng County happened to be on the way back to Jiuhuazong.
Jing Li became interested, and was thinking about the places he passed on the way back, when he suddenly heard a very charming voice from above, "Look, I'm so happy, I almost forgot to introduce you to each other."
coming.
Jing Li complained silently in his heart, listened carefully, and ate the animal meat that Cang Qi had just put on his plate.
"Elder Wu, these three are the disciples of the Jiuhua Sect and Guiyi Sect." The owner of the Zuimeng Building's lips were painted with vermilion, and he smiled sweetly, with a look of joy, "I didn't expect that my small place could also Let the three little friends of Labor run over."
As soon as the names of Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen were lifted up, the courtyard was quiet for a moment, and then the original staggering of wine and chips was restored.
The gaze from the other side seemed to be real, Jing Li didn't seem to notice it, and after eating the food fed by his senior brother, he and his senior brother looked at the guest who was almost on an equal footing with the owner of Zuimenglou. Elder Wu smiled and said hello.
The fingers holding the wine cup tightened, and no one else noticed except the person concerned and the owner of Zuimenglou who was closest to him. Elder Wu put on a kind face and said with a smile, "The owner is self-effacing, can you please Seeing these three little friends coming, it shows that the building is extraordinary, but I can't wait." After applauding both sides, he quickly changed the subject, seemingly unintentionally, "Speaking of which, I've already During the years, I also made a Taoist friend, who is also a member of the Jiuhua Sect, and I haven't contacted him for a long time, and I will see a few little friends now, but I feel a little grateful for the old friend."
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Elder Wu took up the conversation himself, "I don't know how many young friends are in the sect, but have you ever seen my old friend, his surname is Tong, who works in the Discipline Hall."
It is simpler and more crude than the tentative method imagined.
Originally, Jing Li was not going to talk to him, relying on his senior brother, after all, he was familiar with those people in Jiuhuazong, and the rest were certainly familiar, and he could recognize them when they saw him, but when asked for his name, he really liked it. If they can't answer, who knows, this Elder Wu will ask them a question with a bug, and they really can't answer it.
Jing Li looked at Elder Wu pretending to be suspicious, "Elder Wu may have misremembered, and there has never been a discipline in our Jiuhua Sect." After a pause, he said, "This old friend of Elder Wu, Xu is in Law enforcement hall."
Under the cover of the wine cup, the owner of Zuimenglou curled her lips silently. It seems that her luck today is really good.
No matter how worried Elder Wu was at this moment, he still had a dazed look on his face, and sighed, "My old friend knows about this, and I'm afraid he will have to break up with me again."
Then, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, he changed the subject, and stopped making a fuss about his old friend named Tong.
On the contrary, the owner of Zuimenglou introduced Jingli and the others with a smile, "This one is Elder Wu from Wuxiang Sect. He received my request for help a month ago and brought his disciples here to help."
Jing Li Wenyan and Cang Qi looked at each other, a month ago...
"All the talented people present here are disciples of Wuxiang Sect. The leader is Elder Wu's nephew and a disciple of Wuxiang Sect Master, little friend Wu Yannan." The relationship between them was exposed, and before Elder Wu was about to speak, he looked apologetically at his lower right, "I haven't asked the names of a few friends yet."
The three answered one by one, Hu Yizhou, who was the last to speak out, rolled his eyes silently in his heart. He already knew that the foreign aid invited by Zuimenglou was a late Nascent Soul, and Cang Qi and Jing Li were both late Nascent Souls. In Dzogchen, Elder Wu and the owner of Zuimenglou have a small friend, and they are really taking advantage of Jingli and the others.
Elder Wu looked coldly at the kindness and kindness of the owner of Zuimenglou to the three of Jingli, and sneered in his heart. When the conversation over there stopped, he interrupted, "A few friends are sitting here, I will keep it later. It seemed a bit redundant; before I left the door, I also received a letter asking for help from Feiying Villa, and since the landlord is fine, I will set off and rush to Feiying Villa to help my junior brother."
To abdicate so readily?Why is he so unbelievable?
While listening to Elder Wu's words, Jing Li carefully observed the reaction of the owner of Zuimenglou. Sure enough, she saw that her expression was a little cracked, but she quickly returned to normal. She cast a reproachful glance at Elder Wu beside her, "Elder Wu What are you talking about! Those who know it say that Elder Wu has deep brotherhood; those who don’t know it think that I, Zuimenglou, can’t tolerate people!"
"Could it be that I invited you here from such a long distance just to let you make a trip for nothing! There are three little friends who will help me, and I can do what I want, but am I that impermanent villain? The matter of Feiying Villa , I have also heard about it, but I think it will be foolproof if Elder Wu and his two juniors go there, and the White Sun Sword Sect is on the side. On the contrary, it is my Drunken Dream Building, surrounded by powerful enemies, and the disciples in the building can hardly sleep or eat , I am really anxious."
It seems that while complaining and whitewashing himself, he did not forget to block all the back roads of Elder Wu, and at this time, many disciples of Zuimenglou in the courtyard all begged, "I hope Elder Wu will help me to cross the road." This difficulty", leaving no room for people at all.
Elder Wu really wanted to leave. Although he was happy to get the steps handed over to him, the words of the owner of Zuimenglou really made him very angry. He knew that this woman was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Wanting the horse to run, but refusing to feed the horse, bah, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world!
Elder Wu was disdainful in his heart, but on the surface, he reluctantly agreed to stay because everyone's kindness was hard to turn down, and he was really worried about the situation here, so it was another "happy time for the host and guest"...
.........
It's night, the West Court of Drunken Dream Tower——
Jing Li stood up from the bath, his complexion was fair, and the water droplets rolled off his body, which seemed to have a lustrous luster.
Walking ashore, vaporized the water in the body and hair, pulled the clothes from the hanger on one side, put them on the body, and left the inner room.
Cang Qi was sitting at the table, looking at the glass wall in his hand.
Under the warm yellow candlelight, the red filaments in the glazed wall are also dyed, which is different from the transparency seen in ordinary times, and has another sense of precipitation.
Cang Qi noticed Jing Li's gaze, and turned his head slightly. After Jing Li finished bathing, he only casually approved a middle coat, without a coat, and the belt was loosely tied around his waist. Appears clear.
The moisture on Jing Li's hair has been melted away by him, and there is no wet dripping down. The hair soaked in water looks especially soft, and the light-colored hair is smudged with warm color by the candle flame, which makes it more suitable for Jing Li. The skin on the neck exposed outside the cloth is white and tender.
Cang Qi beckoned, motioning for Jing Li to come over.
Jing Li walked up to him according to his words, tilted his head for some unknown reason, and felt a warm palm brush against his neck, reaching the back of his neck, pulling out the strands of hair left in his clothes.
The long hair brushed against the back, with a little itchiness, Jing Li's body trembled slightly, and he couldn't help laughing.
Cang Qi brushed his hair out for him, running her slender fingers through the hair. Jing Li's hair is of good quality, won't get tangled, and feels very smooth.
Jing Li took out a spiritual fruit from the storage ring, and brought it to Cang Qi's lips, Cang Qi opened his mouth to eat it, and his lips touched Jing Li's fingertips, but Jing Li felt that his fingertips were hot, and quickly withdrew them, subconsciously He touched another spirit fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, just about to open his mouth to swallow it, when he suddenly remembered that the fingers holding the spirit fruit were the two that touched Cang Qi's lips just now, his brain froze, and he switched hands directly, it was over After reacting, I felt that I was simply a snake spirit.
Scratching his chin embarrassingly, trying to defend himself, he felt his waist tighten, and his eyes changed positions in a flash.
Jing Li straddled Cang Qi's body, met his eyes, and heard the voice he was most familiar with and liked the most, and his voice was still a little hoarse. .
"Junior brother and I have separated."
It wasn't a question or an accusation, but a flat tone, and because of the slightly rising ending at the end, Jing Li's ears felt a little hot.
"Suddenly feel a little... embarrassing?"
Jing Li touched his nose, although he himself thought it was a little funny, but it was true.
Little by little, his fingers slid down from between Cang Qi's browbones, brushed gently over the bridge of his nose, lingered on his chin, slid down his neck after a long time, and gently stroked the protuberance between his neck.
"what to do……"
Thanks to the sitting posture at this time, the voice of Jing Li, who is extremely rare to be able to look down at the other party, is full of distress, "I thought that these hundred years would not have any effect on me, but now I find..."
Cang Qi's eyes were as dark as a pool, waiting for his next words.
"...I haven't seen you in a hundred years, and I can't help my liking for senior brother..." Jing Li slumped his shoulders, hugged him, buried his face in his arms, and said in a muffled voice, "What should I do..."
then,
He heard Cang Qi's low smile, which was low and sweet, and he leaned into his ear and praised. "Keep it up."
Jing Li tilted his head, rubbed his face against the ear of the person below him, deeply convinced, "...I think so too."
Feeling the hand around his waist lightly patted, Jing Li let go of his hand, straightened up, not knowing why, and looked at the other side blankly, "?"
Jing Li was wearing a middle coat, but it wasn't as neat as usual. The collar didn't slip off the shoulders, but it didn't get into the waist. Cang Qi didn't avert his eyes, but glanced at it.
Jing Li was embarrassed, and for some reason, he was also a little embarrassed, his face was hot, and he lowered his eyes. From this angle, he could just take a panoramic view of the other party's excessively long eyelashes.
Jing Li moved his fingers, and before he had time to put the thoughts in his heart into action, he heard a voice that was hoarse than usual, "Junior brother."
"Ok?"
After a reflexive response, before waiting for the next sentence, I heard a voice outside the house——
"Two little friends, have you settled down?"
Cang Qi: "..."
Jing Li glanced at the position of the gate in a daze, this...it's almost midnight, right?
Come to them at this time, or is the owner of Zuimenglou coming in person?
This world...is a bit mysterious...
The owner of Zuimenglou who didn't get a response was not discouraged and asked again.
She is a monk, of course she can sense whether there is anyone in the room.
It was only then that Jing Li, who remembered the answer, just wanted to get up, when he felt that something was wrapped around his body.
Looking down, a pair of well-knit hands were straightening his neckline, and the goal was the Qixiu school uniform that he was all too familiar with.
... It's really convenient for monks, getting dressed in a second.
Speaking of which, it's a bit embarrassing to be helped to dress at such a big age, but if the other party is a senior...it seems to be completely fine.
Pulling the person up, after fastening Jing Li's belt and confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, Cang Qi waved his sleeves, and the door opened silently, revealing the owner of the Drunken Dream Building who was standing outside the door, whose glamor was hard to conceal even in the night. .
"Two little friends, excuse me."
They didn't stay here. When they flew over the city, Jing Li subconsciously glanced at the city. Like the cities he had been to before, there was quite a lot of people on the street, but it was still hard to hide a sense of defeat. feeling.
Qiu Da wanted to use Yuanshen Cone to deal with Cang Qi, but he never thought that stealing chickens would cost him a lot of rice. Instead of injuring Cang Qi, he put his own life in it and gave Cang Qi a bunch of information for nothing. .
From Qiu Da's consciousness, they finally knew what the current situation in the cultivation world was like.
Before they fell into the ground, the demons had already moved frequently, unwilling to be lonely, and many small sects suffered because of this. In the past 100 years, the battle between Taoism and demons has not only failed to compete, but has intensified.
Today's Dongling Prefecture, due to the struggle between the two sides, has been divided into two parts, with the boundless abyss as the boundary, and the northwest has completely fallen under the control of the demons.
In the past hundred years, there have been constant disputes in Dongling Prefecture. Not only are the two families of Taoism and demons fighting, but the reckless actions of the demons have also made the demons and the demons a deadly feud.
Many forces disintegrated in the flames of war, and more are rising.
With a common enemy, those sectarian forces have united unprecedentedly. Some forces with old grudges have temporarily reached a united front and formed an alliance. They will only care about it after the completion of the exorcism plan. The old accounts between each other; even the monster clan who have been closed for a long time and rarely contacted the monks, at certain times, were willing to help each other with the latter.
Since Dongling Prefecture is divided into two, there is a boundary between the two. Although the surrounding area of the Boundless Abyss is dangerous, no one would want to live there. Those who survive near the middle line.Under the premise that the battle between Taoism and demons is becoming more and more severe, life for those in the middle has become extremely difficult.
It is impossible for the members of the Dao League to take into account all corners of Dongling State. There are always people in some places who live under the oppression of the demons.
And where they are now is such a gray middle ground.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful, but it is not a place where the aura of heaven and earth gathers. In this land, the most powerful is Zuimenglou. The owner is a peak monk in the late Yuanying period. An elder in the mid-Yuanying period and three Jindan monks have such confidence, and the location is relatively remote, and there is no outside force to intervene, which is enough for them to secure the top spot in the local area.
Until the arrival of the demons.
Just like the demon clan approached the monks in order to get rid of the demons; in the demon clan's camp, there are also many former monks who have taken refuge in them. One of the giants openly rebelled and joined forces with the demons. While being abused by others, people had to recognize the reality. Xuantianzong dared to rebel, and he had his own confidence. It took away a lot of sects attached to it. You must know that Xuantianzong used to be the first-rate force in the cultivation world, and it is not only those small sects who are attached to it, there are also many first-rate and second-rate forces.
There are also demons who are ruthless and do everything they can, and Xuantianzong and others are intimidating and seductive. In the following decades, some people or forces occasionally defected and chose the opposite.
Just like the Qiu Brothers, they were originally just a group of casual cultivators who used to kill people and rob treasures, but after being approached by the demons, they obediently boarded the thief boat without even a trace of struggle, and became the masters of the demons. knife.
As I said before, this land is not considered a treasure land of geomantic omen, so the big forces look down on it. With few outsiders kicking the pavilion, Zuimenglou firmly holds the absolute control of this place; it is precisely because In this way, when the demons sent people to nibble at the little ants in the middle line, they didn't send any experts, they just sent the Qiu brothers away, and some of their subordinates came to clean up the mess.
This place is not only Zuimenglou's cultivation sect, but also several sects such as Qinghefang. The Qiu brothers do not have an advantage in numbers, but there are also advantages of having fewer people.
There are two Nascent Souls sitting in the Drunken Dream Building, and the master's cultivation base is slightly higher than Qiu Da, so the Qiu Brothers did not directly use it to attack, but took out those forces that were attached to it step by step.
And the owner of Zuimenglou is obviously very clear about the reason why Qiu Da and the others don't come to her directly, and even more clear that if something happens to him, the remaining elder in the building will not be Qiu Da's opponent at all. Menglou will fall into the hands of the other party, so there is a lot of caution in doing things.
In the same way, without absolute certainty, Qiu Da did not dare to have a direct confrontation with the owner of Zuimenglou, for fear of being crazily counterattacked by the other party—anyway, if this consumption continues, the unlucky ones will definitely not be able to fight back. will be myself.
The two sides have been in such a strange stalemate for several years, and finally, someone couldn't sit still—the person above the Qiu Brothers thought that this matter had dragged on for so long and hadn't been resolved, so he directly set a deadline; As the alliance dwindled and the situation went from bad to worse, the letter of appeal for help was finally answered.
What Jing Li and the two saw in the projection was the inner sect disciple of Qinghefang who had been murdered by Qiu Er. The group of them went to a town under the order of their teacher, and wanted to save a few days ago. Who would have guessed that the fellow who was taken away by the family died before leaving the teacher.
At this time, they were heading north, planning to go to Zuimenglou to find out. From Qiu Da's memory, it was known that the person above them, because he was dissatisfied with their delay, issued a deadline, They also sent a few other people to help Qiu Da and the others, and the one who took the lead was also a late Nascent Soul, counting the time, I am afraid that they have already attacked Zuimenglou.
Following the general direction learned from Qiu Da's memory, the three of them continued to travel northward, and finally arrived near their destination before the end of time.
The reason why Zuimenglou is called Zuimenglou is not that their school is located in a building, but that there is a strange stone in the station, which looks like a pavilion, and it is so ingenious, so it got its name.
Seeing the strangely shaped red sandalwood-colored boulder towering into the sky in front of him, Jing Li knew that they had reached the boundary of Zuimenglou.
At the foot of the mountain there is a large formation protecting the mountain, but there are no disciples guarding the gate, the three feel a little strange.
Hu Yizhou looked around, but didn't see anyone, "Could it be that we came late? The people in Zuimenglou have been killed by something?"
Otherwise, why would there be no one in front of the mountain gate? However, it seems that no corpses have been seen...
"It shouldn't be..."
Jing Li slightly hesitantly made up his mind, spent half a day on the road, can't it be such a coincidence?
But around here, there are some traces of fighting.
"The big formation protecting the mountain is still here." Cang Qi observed for a moment, dispelling the negative guesses in Jing Li's mind, "If the demons really succeed, they won't just leave this trace."
Jing Li thought for a while, and it was the same reason, even if the demons used some dirty methods to poison or something, this place would not be preserved so well.
However, what is going on, I have to wait until I go in to find out. Now I can't even find a gatekeeper disciple. Jing Li was thinking about how to inform them of someone's visit without disturbing the Zuimenglou mountain guard formation, when he heard Cang Qi Suddenly, "Someone is coming."
Jing Li looked in the direction Cang Qi was looking at, and saw a small black dot flying from far away from the sky, when he could get in, the little black dot split into two, then divided into three, and divided into four , and then counted them in detail, exactly four, the actions were quite hasty, as if they were in a hurry.
The leader was a woman in a primrose-colored skirt, with cloudy hair on her temples, and all the scattered hair on her temples was raised back because of the rush of flying. She probably noticed a few of them, turned her head slightly, and met with the companion behind her. talking about something.
Apart from her, the other three women have different hairstyles and hairpins, but their clothes are very similar, and they look standard. After noticing the three of them, the four of them spread out in a wild goose formation, at a slightly slower speed than before. They got on some, but they didn't make Jingli and the others wait too long. After a cup of tea, they all flew in front of them.
The four women stopped two feet away from Jing Li and the others, but they did not fall.
"I don't know how many friends..."
The leading female cultivator took a look at the three people in front of her, and her pupils shrank suddenly. She was far away and hadn't seen them clearly before. Now that she saw them face to face, she realized that two of the three people's cultivation bases were beyond her ability. Seeing through, I couldn't help being more cautious in my words. "...What is the so-called reason for coming to my Zuimenglou?"
Although the three of them didn't look like the kind of youngsters, but recently the screwdriver has become more and more nasty, and people have to guard against it.
As expected, he was a disciple of Zuimenglou.
Jing Li briefly talked about meeting the Qiu Brothers. At first, the female cultivator was skeptical, but when she heard that all the disciples in Qinghefang had been murdered by the Qiu Brothers, a look of sadness flashed across her face. The disciples of Zuimenglou couldn't help exclaiming when they heard this; and when Jing Li said that the Qiu brothers had all received their karma and couldn't continue to stir up trouble, they all cheered and said repeatedly, "Yes!"
Hearing Jing Li's future explanation, the leader was overjoyed, but there was still a trace of hesitation in her heart. No wonder she was like this. She was really frightened by those devils. Not long ago, there was a devil who pretended to be a small faction The disciples came to ask for help, if the senior sister of the team hadn't been careful and made a quick decision, the small group of people who were tricked out by the devil might not be able to come back.
He was happy to hear that Jing Li and the others came to help on their own initiative, but how to confirm their identities was a real problem.
And just leave it alone, it's even worse, if what they say is true, then you can't easily offend——Qiu Da is in the late Yuanying stage, and it's all in the hands of these people, so these people should be How capable?
He was happy on the face, but in fact he was calculating the gains and losses quickly in his mind, and then he deliberately tried to say, "If the three fellow daoists can come to help me, I will be grateful to everyone in Zuimenglou. I don't know how many fellow daoists will inherit... ?”
Two of the three were wearing casual clothes, and only one was wearing something that looked like a standard, but she couldn't tell which school it was.
"Senior brother and I are descended from the Jiuhua sect, and junior brother Hu is a disciple of the same school."
Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen are both big sects that have stood for thousands of years, but they are naturally alive and still in the leading position after a hundred years.
Female nun: "..."
You must have heard of Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen, after all, they are super first-class sects, but the problem is, she has never met people from these two sects, so how can she judge whether it is true or not.
If it's true, it's luck. If it's fake...then these devils are so courageous, they dare to impersonate...
Jing Li waited for a while, but he didn't wait for the other party to speak. Just as he was surprised, a beautiful woman in purple clothes suddenly came from the gate of Zuimenglou, and said with a charming smile, "Thank you, three friends from afar. Please."
When the three female cultivators in mid-air saw the door, they all rushed forward happily and shouted, "Elder Sister!"
The woman standing in front of Jingli and the others was startled for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that since the senior sister came out, she must have the landlord's permission to come to greet her, which also saved her from the trouble of entanglement.
The aura of the purple-clothed woman is very strong, not because her cultivation base is higher than that of Jing Li and others, but because she has just advanced and has not been completely stabilized before, so it is released like this.
The woman in purple glanced at Cang Qi, turned her eyes around Jing Li, and finally passed Hu Yizhou, retracted, turned around with a smile, and led them to the mountain gate.
Jing Li and the others intentionally fell behind a few steps, and the female cultivators they saw first hurriedly followed, and fell tightly beside the purple-clothed woman.
The woman in the primrose-colored skirt who spoke to Jing Li at the beginning glanced behind her carefully, leaned over to the woman in purple and said in a low voice, "Elder Sister, these people..."
The woman in purple shook her head slightly, and stopped her junior sister from speaking, "The landlord has his own decision."
Seeing that she hesitated to speak, knowing that she was worried, she patted her companion's hand lightly, and said slowly, "The truth can't be fake, and the fake can't be true."
Although he was at the end, Jing Li, who actually heard everything he said clearly, turned his head, looked at Cang Qi and blinked his eyes, which meant——it seemed that Zuimenglou was very careful.
Cang Qi's evaluation is very objective: eat a fall, gain a wisdom.
So, did you really get tricked...
The woman in purple led Jing Li and the three of them all the way forward, instead of taking them to the main building as Jing Li thought, she led them around a detour and entered an extremely spacious courtyard.
There are quite a few people in the courtyard, and many women are flying around the courtyard like butterflies. Although there are many people, they will not give people a sense of disorganization.
Taking a closer look, there are quite a few low tables placed in the courtyard, each of which is covered with delicacies, countless spiritual fruit wines, fine nectar and jade delicacies, full of fragrance, and delicious in color and taste.
——It was clearly hosting a banquet.
Jing Li is not so narcissistic that he thinks that Zuimenglou is entertaining them, and it is probably because they are entertaining some important guests that they are so grand and caring.
At this juncture, the one who can make Zuimenglou attach so much importance to hospitality... Presumably it must be the rescuers invited by the owner of Zuimenglou.
But...not everyone thinks about such an obvious thing——
For some reason, the low tables in the courtyard were not full.There was still one vacant, and the seat happened to be not far from them. Hu Yizhou was very sharp-eyed and wanted to pull Jing Li to a seat, but he did not forget to whisper to Jing Li, "This seat is too far back."
From Hu Yizhou's point of view, since the names of Guiyimen and Jiuhuazong have been reported, as long as the owner of Zuimenglou is not a badass, he must invite them to a banquet—it's not that he is thick-skinned, but that he went out before. , Those forces who learned about their master's inheritance all acted in this way.
Jing Li: "...Brother Hu is because you think too much."
The woman in purple walked into the courtyard with three unfamiliar faces, which already attracted the attention of some nearby people, but Hu Yizhou's actions attracted even more attention.
"Master, who are these three?"
There were only a handful of people who received the summons from the woman in primrose-colored clothes, so not everyone knew about the situation. As soon as the banquet started, they saw that the other party had brought someone in again, so they couldn't help being curious.
"Are these three senior brothers also from the Wuxiang Sect?"
The female cultivator who asked this question peeked behind the purple-clothed woman as she asked, her face was soon stained with pink.
Just as the woman in purple was distressed by being surrounded by fellow sects and unable to move forward, she suddenly heard someone from her superiors raise her voice. "But Qingxin is back?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the many disciples surrounding Chang Qingxin immediately dispersed, revealing the figure in the middle, Jing Li just pulled Hu Yizhou who was about to sit down, and stood still.
Chang Qingxin bowed and saluted, "Master, the disciple has brought three distinguished guests."
Sitting on the left side of the main building of Zuimeng Building, an old man whose low table was almost at the same position as the former heard the word "honored guest". On the table, he said calmly, "I didn't know that the host still has guests coming today, so I acted first, and I hope the three friends don't blame me."
Don't blame him for talking about three little friends, but he actually mentioned both parties - it's not him who has the final say on the opening of the banquet, but naturally the owner has the final say; wait.
The smile on the face of the owner of Zuimeng Building remained unchanged, Quan Duo couldn't understand the meaning of the old man's words, and waved to the disciple, "Qingxin, hurry up and invite guests to the table."
While speaking, there were actually two more low tables on the lower right. Although the position was not the same as that of the old man across from Zuimenglou, it was almost the same as the second table on the lower left.
Chang Qingxin was taken aback for a moment, but there was no change on his face, and he kindly led Jing Li and the other three to sit down. The old man saw it in his eyes and frowned slightly.
Hu Yizhou was quite happy - he just thought that the seats assigned to them were unreasonable, but he didn't expect that the owner of Zuimenglou was quite good, and the remedy was timely.
Jing Li followed Cang Qi and sat down behind the first low table. As soon as he sat down, he noticed the undisguised probing gaze from the other side.
Looking up, I saw a young man wearing a jade crown looking straight over, with a rather haughty expression on his face.
Jing Li, who was used to distinguishing the other party's identity from the clothes, glanced aside, and roughly saw the description of the opposite party and his own line of people.
The people sitting on their side, except for the three of them, should be from the side of Zuimenglou; as for the other side, from the third table onwards, the clothes are all of the same model, obviously from the same door; The one opposite them is probably a direct disciple—no matter which sect, they are surprisingly similar in terms of subduing them.
But he had never seen the uniforms of these disciples on the opposite side, and he couldn't recognize which one it was.
Jing Li calmly withdrew his gaze, and waited for the master of Zuimenglou to come after him—he couldn't believe that it was such a high standard for the other party to invite them to dinner so kindly without confirming their identities.
The delicacies and wines on the low table are really exquisite and overflowing with aura. Jing Li glanced at the plate of animal meat of an unknown animal in his hand. He hadn't eaten in the Bodhi tree for a hundred years. Seeing this, he felt Some kind.
I don't know what the plan of the owner of the Zuimeng Building is, he sees the tricks, Jing Li raises the wine pot, fills the wine cup in Cang Qi's hand, fills up his own, puts down the wine pot, Take the wine cup, lightly clink glasses with senior brother, and said with a smile, "I haven't eaten for 100 years."
Cang Qi laughed lightly when he heard this, took a plate of animal meat with the purest aura on the table, and put it in Jingli's plate. "A thousand miles away is Fufeng County. I heard that the sweet-scented osmanthus wine there is a must."
Jing Li's eyes lit up, who had turned on the food radar in an instant. Fufeng County happened to be on the way back to Jiuhuazong.
Jing Li became interested, and was thinking about the places he passed on the way back, when he suddenly heard a very charming voice from above, "Look, I'm so happy, I almost forgot to introduce you to each other."
coming.
Jing Li complained silently in his heart, listened carefully, and ate the animal meat that Cang Qi had just put on his plate.
"Elder Wu, these three are the disciples of the Jiuhua Sect and Guiyi Sect." The owner of the Zuimeng Building's lips were painted with vermilion, and he smiled sweetly, with a look of joy, "I didn't expect that my small place could also Let the three little friends of Labor run over."
As soon as the names of Jiuhuazong and Guiyimen were lifted up, the courtyard was quiet for a moment, and then the original staggering of wine and chips was restored.
The gaze from the other side seemed to be real, Jing Li didn't seem to notice it, and after eating the food fed by his senior brother, he and his senior brother looked at the guest who was almost on an equal footing with the owner of Zuimenglou. Elder Wu smiled and said hello.
The fingers holding the wine cup tightened, and no one else noticed except the person concerned and the owner of Zuimenglou who was closest to him. Elder Wu put on a kind face and said with a smile, "The owner is self-effacing, can you please Seeing these three little friends coming, it shows that the building is extraordinary, but I can't wait." After applauding both sides, he quickly changed the subject, seemingly unintentionally, "Speaking of which, I've already During the years, I also made a Taoist friend, who is also a member of the Jiuhua Sect, and I haven't contacted him for a long time, and I will see a few little friends now, but I feel a little grateful for the old friend."
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Elder Wu took up the conversation himself, "I don't know how many young friends are in the sect, but have you ever seen my old friend, his surname is Tong, who works in the Discipline Hall."
It is simpler and more crude than the tentative method imagined.
Originally, Jing Li was not going to talk to him, relying on his senior brother, after all, he was familiar with those people in Jiuhuazong, and the rest were certainly familiar, and he could recognize them when they saw him, but when asked for his name, he really liked it. If they can't answer, who knows, this Elder Wu will ask them a question with a bug, and they really can't answer it.
Jing Li looked at Elder Wu pretending to be suspicious, "Elder Wu may have misremembered, and there has never been a discipline in our Jiuhua Sect." After a pause, he said, "This old friend of Elder Wu, Xu is in Law enforcement hall."
Under the cover of the wine cup, the owner of Zuimenglou curled her lips silently. It seems that her luck today is really good.
No matter how worried Elder Wu was at this moment, he still had a dazed look on his face, and sighed, "My old friend knows about this, and I'm afraid he will have to break up with me again."
Then, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, he changed the subject, and stopped making a fuss about his old friend named Tong.
On the contrary, the owner of Zuimenglou introduced Jingli and the others with a smile, "This one is Elder Wu from Wuxiang Sect. He received my request for help a month ago and brought his disciples here to help."
Jing Li Wenyan and Cang Qi looked at each other, a month ago...
"All the talented people present here are disciples of Wuxiang Sect. The leader is Elder Wu's nephew and a disciple of Wuxiang Sect Master, little friend Wu Yannan." The relationship between them was exposed, and before Elder Wu was about to speak, he looked apologetically at his lower right, "I haven't asked the names of a few friends yet."
The three answered one by one, Hu Yizhou, who was the last to speak out, rolled his eyes silently in his heart. He already knew that the foreign aid invited by Zuimenglou was a late Nascent Soul, and Cang Qi and Jing Li were both late Nascent Souls. In Dzogchen, Elder Wu and the owner of Zuimenglou have a small friend, and they are really taking advantage of Jingli and the others.
Elder Wu looked coldly at the kindness and kindness of the owner of Zuimenglou to the three of Jingli, and sneered in his heart. When the conversation over there stopped, he interrupted, "A few friends are sitting here, I will keep it later. It seemed a bit redundant; before I left the door, I also received a letter asking for help from Feiying Villa, and since the landlord is fine, I will set off and rush to Feiying Villa to help my junior brother."
To abdicate so readily?Why is he so unbelievable?
While listening to Elder Wu's words, Jing Li carefully observed the reaction of the owner of Zuimenglou. Sure enough, she saw that her expression was a little cracked, but she quickly returned to normal. She cast a reproachful glance at Elder Wu beside her, "Elder Wu What are you talking about! Those who know it say that Elder Wu has deep brotherhood; those who don’t know it think that I, Zuimenglou, can’t tolerate people!"
"Could it be that I invited you here from such a long distance just to let you make a trip for nothing! There are three little friends who will help me, and I can do what I want, but am I that impermanent villain? The matter of Feiying Villa , I have also heard about it, but I think it will be foolproof if Elder Wu and his two juniors go there, and the White Sun Sword Sect is on the side. On the contrary, it is my Drunken Dream Building, surrounded by powerful enemies, and the disciples in the building can hardly sleep or eat , I am really anxious."
It seems that while complaining and whitewashing himself, he did not forget to block all the back roads of Elder Wu, and at this time, many disciples of Zuimenglou in the courtyard all begged, "I hope Elder Wu will help me to cross the road." This difficulty", leaving no room for people at all.
Elder Wu really wanted to leave. Although he was happy to get the steps handed over to him, the words of the owner of Zuimenglou really made him very angry. He knew that this woman was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Wanting the horse to run, but refusing to feed the horse, bah, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world!
Elder Wu was disdainful in his heart, but on the surface, he reluctantly agreed to stay because everyone's kindness was hard to turn down, and he was really worried about the situation here, so it was another "happy time for the host and guest"...
.........
It's night, the West Court of Drunken Dream Tower——
Jing Li stood up from the bath, his complexion was fair, and the water droplets rolled off his body, which seemed to have a lustrous luster.
Walking ashore, vaporized the water in the body and hair, pulled the clothes from the hanger on one side, put them on the body, and left the inner room.
Cang Qi was sitting at the table, looking at the glass wall in his hand.
Under the warm yellow candlelight, the red filaments in the glazed wall are also dyed, which is different from the transparency seen in ordinary times, and has another sense of precipitation.
Cang Qi noticed Jing Li's gaze, and turned his head slightly. After Jing Li finished bathing, he only casually approved a middle coat, without a coat, and the belt was loosely tied around his waist. Appears clear.
The moisture on Jing Li's hair has been melted away by him, and there is no wet dripping down. The hair soaked in water looks especially soft, and the light-colored hair is smudged with warm color by the candle flame, which makes it more suitable for Jing Li. The skin on the neck exposed outside the cloth is white and tender.
Cang Qi beckoned, motioning for Jing Li to come over.
Jing Li walked up to him according to his words, tilted his head for some unknown reason, and felt a warm palm brush against his neck, reaching the back of his neck, pulling out the strands of hair left in his clothes.
The long hair brushed against the back, with a little itchiness, Jing Li's body trembled slightly, and he couldn't help laughing.
Cang Qi brushed his hair out for him, running her slender fingers through the hair. Jing Li's hair is of good quality, won't get tangled, and feels very smooth.
Jing Li took out a spiritual fruit from the storage ring, and brought it to Cang Qi's lips, Cang Qi opened his mouth to eat it, and his lips touched Jing Li's fingertips, but Jing Li felt that his fingertips were hot, and quickly withdrew them, subconsciously He touched another spirit fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, just about to open his mouth to swallow it, when he suddenly remembered that the fingers holding the spirit fruit were the two that touched Cang Qi's lips just now, his brain froze, and he switched hands directly, it was over After reacting, I felt that I was simply a snake spirit.
Scratching his chin embarrassingly, trying to defend himself, he felt his waist tighten, and his eyes changed positions in a flash.
Jing Li straddled Cang Qi's body, met his eyes, and heard the voice he was most familiar with and liked the most, and his voice was still a little hoarse. .
"Junior brother and I have separated."
It wasn't a question or an accusation, but a flat tone, and because of the slightly rising ending at the end, Jing Li's ears felt a little hot.
"Suddenly feel a little... embarrassing?"
Jing Li touched his nose, although he himself thought it was a little funny, but it was true.
Little by little, his fingers slid down from between Cang Qi's browbones, brushed gently over the bridge of his nose, lingered on his chin, slid down his neck after a long time, and gently stroked the protuberance between his neck.
"what to do……"
Thanks to the sitting posture at this time, the voice of Jing Li, who is extremely rare to be able to look down at the other party, is full of distress, "I thought that these hundred years would not have any effect on me, but now I find..."
Cang Qi's eyes were as dark as a pool, waiting for his next words.
"...I haven't seen you in a hundred years, and I can't help my liking for senior brother..." Jing Li slumped his shoulders, hugged him, buried his face in his arms, and said in a muffled voice, "What should I do..."
then,
He heard Cang Qi's low smile, which was low and sweet, and he leaned into his ear and praised. "Keep it up."
Jing Li tilted his head, rubbed his face against the ear of the person below him, deeply convinced, "...I think so too."
Feeling the hand around his waist lightly patted, Jing Li let go of his hand, straightened up, not knowing why, and looked at the other side blankly, "?"
Jing Li was wearing a middle coat, but it wasn't as neat as usual. The collar didn't slip off the shoulders, but it didn't get into the waist. Cang Qi didn't avert his eyes, but glanced at it.
Jing Li was embarrassed, and for some reason, he was also a little embarrassed, his face was hot, and he lowered his eyes. From this angle, he could just take a panoramic view of the other party's excessively long eyelashes.
Jing Li moved his fingers, and before he had time to put the thoughts in his heart into action, he heard a voice that was hoarse than usual, "Junior brother."
"Ok?"
After a reflexive response, before waiting for the next sentence, I heard a voice outside the house——
"Two little friends, have you settled down?"
Cang Qi: "..."
Jing Li glanced at the position of the gate in a daze, this...it's almost midnight, right?
Come to them at this time, or is the owner of Zuimenglou coming in person?
This world...is a bit mysterious...
The owner of Zuimenglou who didn't get a response was not discouraged and asked again.
She is a monk, of course she can sense whether there is anyone in the room.
It was only then that Jing Li, who remembered the answer, just wanted to get up, when he felt that something was wrapped around his body.
Looking down, a pair of well-knit hands were straightening his neckline, and the goal was the Qixiu school uniform that he was all too familiar with.
... It's really convenient for monks, getting dressed in a second.
Speaking of which, it's a bit embarrassing to be helped to dress at such a big age, but if the other party is a senior...it seems to be completely fine.
Pulling the person up, after fastening Jing Li's belt and confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, Cang Qi waved his sleeves, and the door opened silently, revealing the owner of the Drunken Dream Building who was standing outside the door, whose glamor was hard to conceal even in the night. .
"Two little friends, excuse me."
