Gu Meizhi

More than half of the outer disciples of Jixia Academy have left the mountain on their own initiative.These young men worshiped Kunlun Mountain to cultivate immortals, not to die in Huangquan in a daze.The remaining ones who never left were either homeless or unwilling.

Bo Jiu went back to Jixia Academy, and moved all the bedding and luggage he left there to Tianji Peak. On the way, he met his former fellow apprentices, most of whom had naked jealousy and hatred in their eyes.

But Bo Jiu doesn't care anymore.

He told Elder Tianji that he buried his head in the scripture pavilion in the south hall of Tianji Peak all day long, and often didn't even remember to eat three meals.In more than half a month, he finished reading the books in the Sutra Pavilion of Tianji Peak, and then borrowed the books in the Sutra Pavilion of Tiantong Peak, studying hungrily all night.

It was just dawn on this day, and Bo Jiu curled up in the chair and took a nap for a while without touching the pillow all night, her face was pale with blue and black eyes, the lamp oil had already boiled dry before the case.

Mei Qingjian couldn't help frowning when she walked in, and lightly covered him with a thin blanket, inadvertently glanced at the book that Bo Jiu was clutching between her fingers.The spine of the book is dilapidated, with ancient seal inscriptions, and the words and sentences are obscure, full of heresy ways of resurrecting ghosts.

Mei Qingjian paused, but Bo Jiu had already woken up.He shivered sleepily, saw that it was him, and just rubbed his eyes: "Brother?... Well, it's dawn."

Mei Qingjian didn't say much, she just frowned and said, "Don't move, take a good rest."

Bo Jiu stretched her waist, stretched until her whole body was stiff and her bones were creaking, then she shook her head and said, "This book is an old book in the Kunlun Sutra Pavilion. I promised Master Tiantong that I would only borrow it for one night and return it back."

Ever since Ling Yu's head-covering words fell that day, it seemed that Bo Jiu had been woken up. He swallowed all the decadent pain, and twelve hours a day was not enough for him to work hard.But in Mei Qingjian's eyes, there was only a sigh with nothing to say.

He remained silent for a while, and finally said: "How can you hold your sword steady like this, I will go with you."

There was a gloomy cloud in Tiantong Peak.As soon as he stepped into the formation, there were seven or eight outer peak disciples standing on one side of the formation, Mei Qing took a closer look, half of them were from Tianfu Peak's sect.

Since Lin Niaoyou's death, rumors about the traitor have spread widely in the Kunlun Mountains. It is said that the so-called traitor has inherited the power of Chaos and can kill people invisible.The disciples of different peaks are alienated from each other, talk about each other, and are separated from each other, which is hard to describe.

Bo Jiu said softly: "I heard that four people in Tiantong Peak have been captured and tortured, but they never came back. They picked persimmons and picked soft ones. It's shameless."

Mei Qingjian took a glance at the Tianfu Peak disciples in front of them, all of them were watching people coming and going with their sword hilts on their hands, and would even sternly ask questions when they encountered unfamiliar faces.With a slight frown, he put away the words on the edge of his mouth.

Mei Qing gradually sensed the power of the formation, and faintly felt that there was indeed a faint evil spirit in Tiantong Peak.

Tiantong Palace is built in a shady bamboo sea and pine waves. The branches and leaves rustle when the wind passes, which is full of elegance.If it's a sunny day, the sky light shines through the bamboo leaves into the shade of the forest, mottled and mottled, it should be a wonderful scene in the world.

It's a pity that on this day, the clouds are heavy and the sun is dim, and it is likely to snow heavily.

Bo Jiu was about to move forward, but Mei Qingjian stopped suddenly.

"and many more."

The last time I met Chaos on the road, it was still in the wilderness, and the coldest time was at midnight, which was also suitable for the gathering of evil spirits.

However, it is broad daylight at this moment, and Mei Qingjian finally did not expect that the forest in front of him was rustling without wind, and the shadows cast by the forest leaves converged silently, and gradually merged into a beast shape, like a fierce tiger, with sharp horns on his forehead, and huge wings tucked in Behind, although it is only a thin layer of light and shadow, there is a tendency to show teeth and claws.

Bo Jiu's breathing suddenly became heavy, and every word seemed to be squeezed out of her teeth.

"...Qongqi."

Mei Qingjian slightly raised her hand to stop him: "It's evil spirit, its body is not here, so don't act rashly."

His old sword sealed the Great Desolate Abyss, and Qiongqi never escaped from the abyss. There is only a ray of evil spirit entrenched here, which cannot hurt anyone for the time being.

Qiongqi's voice is still gentle and elegant, which makes people feel like spring breeze: "Young Master Mei is really smart, I like talking to smart people the most."

Mei Qing said with a serious face: "You have a part in killing people secretly?"

The dark light and shadow on the ground moved without the wind, and there was little laughter. Qiongqi smiled and said: "Naturally, there are friends to help. Chaos escaped from the abyss, and he wants to get rid of us from now on. You are nothing but scorpions Chess piece, I am its opponent."

Mei Qing's hands that were gradually hanging down in his sleeves remained still and he clenched the hilt of his sword, his expression was still calm, and he said slowly: "Yu Wu once said that I am the perfect body of Chaos. You are here to kill me ?”

Qiongqi smiled slightly: "Otherwise, I'll ask Mr. Mei for help."

A gust of wind blows, and the faint evil spirit is blown away. Its soft voice seems to come from all directions, and the lingering sound gradually fades away: "I only have a wisp of emptiness here, how dare I do any harm to the young master. Don't worry, the young master." , I have prepared a generous gift to give to you, we might as well—think about it in the long run."

Bo Jiu's long sword came out of its sheath with a clang, and he stopped with a yell with red eyes, took a step forward, and slammed down towards the ground.

However, the light and shadow were fleeting, but it was seen that the forest land was split into a deep chasm by the sword energy, and the invisible and intangible monster energy had already drifted away with the wind, and the forest sea and pines remained the same, leaving no trace.

……

The white plum blossoms on Tianji Peak are in full bloom. This tree of plum blossoms has grown here as early as when Mei Qingjian became a teacher. Every year when it blooms, the plum blossoms are colorful and touching.

Elder Tianji personally took the flower scissors and carefully pruned the branches, listening to Mei Qingjian report what happened this time.

"...Qongqi's words may not necessarily be intimidating. Since he said that there are so-called generous gifts, most of them are closely related to the disciples. I am afraid that if it is Xiaojiu, it is even more afraid that it is the master—"

"Even if Qiongqi breaks out of the abyss, it may not be so easy if he wants to plot as a teacher." Elder Tianji responded lightly, and handed the pruned white plum to Mei Qingjian, "Insert the vase Take water, put it in front of the desk on weekdays, and it looks refreshing."

"..." Mei Qing gradually took the plum blossoms helplessly, and said, "Master——"

"Where's Xiao Jiu?"

"... Borrowed the classics in the Cangjing Pavilion from Master Tiantong, and then immersed himself in reading them. What he has read recently are all ghostly tricks. Since he can't let Junior Sister Lin go, the disciple is afraid, He may accidentally go astray."

Elder Tianji hummed, and said calmly: "If you want to get rid of this so-called inner demon, it's better to block it than to let it go. Brother Tiantong knows it well. After this calamity, Xiaojiu may also make great progress."

His voice is calm and clear, which seems to have the power to soothe people's hearts.Even though Mei Qingjian was restless and impatient before, after Master's slight advice in a few words, she finally calmed down a lot.

He replied softly, and went to get a broom, and swept away the broken branches and leaves that fell under the flower tree, and then he heard Elder Tianji's chatting like authentic: "I heard that the senior brother is still ill , Ling Yu broke into Tianfu Peak and lost his temper, saying that Ning Ziqian shouldn't have dealt with Tiantong Peak disciples indiscriminately. Although this kid has a bad temper, he still has a good heart."

Mei Qing gradually lowered her eyes, and said softly after a while: "Elder Qisha once said to his disciples that all beings in the world regard 'human beings' as the most evil, and they are the most unworthy of mercy."

With a soft click, Elder Tianji picked up the flower scissors and cut off a broken branch, "This world goes on and on for thousands of years. There are evil deeds and good deeds. It should not be generalized. As time goes by, it will naturally See through."

Mei Qing gradually said in a soft voice: "Master entered Taoism as a loose cultivator. Before entering Taoism, did you also enter the world?"

Elder Tianji sighed, looking fascinated, and said: "That's right. I have lived a hundred years in the human world, and I have tasted the joys and sorrows of it as a teacher. When I was a great minister, I was imprisoned when I was defeated. I have seen all the tricks and calculations.

"In the past, I only thought of jumping out of the Three Realms and not being in the Five Elements, so I could stand innocently. It turns out that thousands of years have passed, and I am still in it—why talk about it."

At this moment, the branches of the plum tree trembled, and the invisible formation of protecting the peak sang along with the wind. Just where Elder Tianji's fingertips touched, a budding plum blossom slowly bloomed, with double petals. Stacked stamens, fragrant and quiet.

Elder Tianji smiled and said, "Jian'er, go and have a look, there is a guest here."
