Sealing Sword

Chapter 73 Ghost Valley

Qin Lanshang got impatient waiting by the Guiling River.

When she was dragged down the hole, she was only startled for a moment, and then she realized that the forest guards were on the move. Although she didn't want to understand what her grandfather was going to do, the left and right would not harm her, so she fell with confidence. go down.

I just didn't expect that Lu Mingyuan would jump down after him. Although he said "Silent speech, strange power and chaos", this scholar is probably born afraid of ghosts, and he could tremble with fright even listening to other people's nonsense stories about ghosts and gods along the way. Like a startled bird, it really made Qin Lanshang laugh a few times.

But it was such a brave guy who didn't hesitate when he jumped down, and held her in his arms with one hand. If it wasn't for the incline and twists and turns of the secret passage to relieve the momentum, he would have fallen to pieces.

"Stupid scholar! Are you stupid with reading?" Qin Lanshang said something to him in his heart, but he still laughed.

Under the cave is a secret passage, with nine turns and eighteen bends, so dark that you can't see your fingers. Fortunately, the people sent by Shen Wuduan were not in trouble, they just led them out of the secret passage, and then retreated.

Beyond the secret path is an open space with luxuriant grass, and there is a long river in front of it.The name of this river is Guiling. Because of the rushing undercurrent, many ships have been swallowed up since ancient times, and an unknown number of corpses are buried below. The water is dark and blends into the night at night. At that time, the river was used as a moat, and even if others could cross the river with a single reed, they would not be able to escape the "water ghost" blocking the way.

Qin Lanshang ran away from home this time, and she still stole the token to use the "water ghost" to help her cross the river. Now she dared not do it again, so she obediently pulled Lu Mingyuan and waited by the river, but the wait lasted more than half an hour. She almost plucked a small piece of grass at her feet, only to see three figures swaying down from the mountain wall.

There are iron chains hanging from the mountain wall, and there are no steep rocks to climb and settle in the middle. Only those with high lightness skills and bold skills dare to walk this road. Qin Lanshang is so old, but seeing his grandfather and uncle There are three people, Sun Mifeng, who can come and go on this mountain wall, but today there is one more person.

She thought about the scene she saw in Jinxing Residence in Qingxue Village, blinked her eyes, and was about to go up to say something, but saw that the expressions of the three of them were a little strange, so she wisely changed her words: "You are finally here, I'm almost hungry Flat."

Shen Wuduan pinched her face, said with a smile: "I see you gained a little weight after going out, it doesn't look like you have suffered."

Probably all the girls in this world hate this word very much, Qin Lanshang immediately refused to accept it, and grabbed her waist with one hand: "How is it possible, I even tied my belt an extra half an inch!"

Chu Xiwei restrained her thoughts, and after she came back to her senses, she made up a knife: "The heart is wide and the body is fat."

Qin Lanshang stomped her feet and said, "Uncle, where's your conscience?"

As an outsider, Ye Fusheng wisely refrained from interjecting when others were chattering, nudged Lu Mingyuan with his elbow, and joked, "How does it feel to be a hero saving the beauty?"

Lu Mingyuan covered his face with his fan, feeling ashamed: "I, I was dragged out by Miss Qin."

Ye Fusheng: "..."

After laughing for a while, Shen Wuduan suddenly changed his face, and said to Qin Lanshang in a deep voice: "You left the valley without authorization this time, acted recklessly, and caused a lot of trouble for the door, do you admit your mistake?"

When he said the word "trouble", he glanced lightly at Lu Mingyuan, his gaze was light, but it seemed like a knife had stabbed in without warning. Lu Mingyuan's back felt cold, but fortunately he stopped, and he bowed his hands and said: "Junior Lu Mingyuan , acted on the orders of the family teacher, if you disturb or offend, please senior Haihan, and you will be punished afterwards."

Shen Wuduan said "Oh", noncommittal, Qin Lanshang knew that her grandfather was a person who could change his face faster than turning the pages of a book, so he hurriedly said: "I admit my mistake! I will go to the ancestral hall to confess to my grandmother later, and then go to torture myself The church will be punished!"

Shen Wuduan sneered: "The punishment hall treats things and does not treat people, can you survive three knives and six holes?"

Before Qin Lanshang could speak, Lu Mingyuan bowed and said, "Miss Qin was burdened by the younger generation, so why should the younger generation be punished, senior please don't make any mistakes."

Shen Wuduan's gaze flickered on his face, then he said: "Since you said it, I will remember it for you, don't deny it later."

Qin Lanshang was so anxious that she jumped up and down, but Chu Xiwei pinned her shoulders and was unable to refute, but Lu Mingyuan smiled cautiously at her as if she had let go of her heart.

After Shen Wuduan said this, he whistled with his fingers between his lips, and after a while, a bamboo raft came against the current, but there was no pole-puller on it.

Ye Fusheng took a closer look, and vaguely saw a few dark shadows from the dark water. It turned out that there were people with excellent water skills under the bamboo raft pushing the boat. No wonder the boat can swim against the current without using a pole.

He once heard that there are many water villages in the south, and there are people with high water quality and deep inner breath who can hide in the water for a day, only need to take a few breaths, move like fish, and live in water. He did not expect to see it here. .

The five people got on the bamboo raft, and the raft stabilized with only a slight movement. The "water ghost" below dragged the bamboo raft to the opposite bank with ropes. in the back.

After reaching the shore, they walked hundreds of steps among the bushes, and opened a secret door on the mountain wall. Five people entered one after another, and after that, they felt that there was something strange.

This is a deep valley, backed by mountains and surrounded by water, surrounded by trees, a maze of trees, a stone Great Wall, pavilions, pavilions, houses and sentries, all kinds of birds, beasts and insects singing, and occasionally a black eagle soars up and disappears into the vast sky.

Shen Wuduan led them along a secluded stone path, detoured several traps, and then saw a hidden mountain gate. Standing at the gate were the ghost doctor Sun Mifeng and the white woman Erniang who hadn't seen each other for many days.

Seeing them, Sun Minfeng stepped forward and circled around the five people twice, tsk-tsk loudly: "It's good, we all came back in one piece, no missing arms or legs."

Hearing this familiar way of speaking, Chu Xiwei was inexplicably relieved. Qin Lanshang stepped forward and rubbed his arm, aggrieved: "Uncle Sun, grandfather and uncle are bullying me!"

When Sun Minfeng entered the Gate of Hundred Ghosts, Qin Lanshang was still a small group. Since then, he has treated and taken care of her, and the relationship is very close. Her father left early, and she regarded Sun Minfeng as her second son from the bottom of her heart. Father, Shen Wudu and his wife also turned a blind eye.

Hearing the complaint, Sun Minfeng patted her head reassuringly, and said to Chu Xiwei: "Master, I have already explained what you ordered."

No matter how great Shen Wudu's authority is, the person sitting in the seat is already Chu Xiwei after all. Sun Minfeng understands this clearly and has positioned himself rightly. They can all be reused before the Lord.

Shen Wuduan didn't take it seriously, and lazily put on the posture of "the Supreme Emperor", Chu Xi slightly nodded and said: "Notify them to arrive at Senluo Hall at [-]:[-]."

Ye Fusheng watched from the side, and his heart suddenly softened. When Chu Xiwei gave orders, she was quite majestic and majestic, and she had completely lost the childishness of the past.

He suddenly realized like never before that he had missed the growth of this apprentice. For a whole ten years, nothing happened.

Ye Fusheng doesn't regret the deal with Chu Ziyu ten years ago, but only regrets that he didn't take good care of Chu Xiwei in the past ten years. It's a pity that he didn't realize it until now, and the past is long gone.

After Chu Xiwei finished arranging the business, Shen Wuduan said: "The two outsiders brought back have passed the test in the door, and this scholar will be arranged in the 'Ningmo Room'. As for this..."

He turned his eyes to Ye Fusheng, paused for a moment, and said: "Take him to the 'Fuxue Courtyard'."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the four members of the Hundred Ghosts Sect changed at the same time, Chu Xiwei's eyes flashed with shock, Sun Mifeng's original expression of watching the excitement also settled down, and when he looked at Ye Fusheng again, he became more solemn.

The Ningmo Room is the guest room, which is the place where the Baiguimen entertains outsiders for business. It is understandable to arrange Lu Mingyuan to live there.

But Fuxueyuan is different.

After Qin Liurong became seriously ill, Shen Wuduan deliberately chose a warm and pleasant place in the valley to build a small building with light catkins in order to facilitate her recuperation, and then settled there.

But before that, he lived in Liufengju which is adjacent to Fuxueyuan.

These two yards are a little remote, but they are clean. In front of the gate is a flowing water path lined with plum blossoms. But bluegrass is everywhere, and the fragrance turns into wind.The two small courtyards are full of "plum blossoms, orchids, chrysanthemums and bamboos", which is indescribably arty.

Because the previous owner of Liufengju was Shen Wuduan, and now the owner of the house is Chu Xiwei, it is a real inner place, so it is quite intriguing to arrange for a newcomer like Ye Fusheng to live in the Fuxueyuan, which is only separated by a wall. up.

Erniang hid the surprise in her eyes, did not dare to question his words, and said respectfully: "Yes."

She summoned a subordinate to lead Lu Mingyuan away, and she herself led Ye Fusheng the way.After the two outsiders had gone far away, Chu Xiwei asked, "Father, this is against the rules."

"Rules are made by people, and whoever refuses to obey the rules should dig out the dead who set the rules and tell me." Shen Wuyuan sneered, and glanced at him, "The bigger the more, the less promising, don't think I don't know, what do you say?" I’m happy to say it’s against the rules.”

Qin Lanshang covered her mouth and snickered, and said, "That's right! Uncle's face is turned into stone, and his heart is already in full bloom!"

"Lan Shang." Chu Xiwei turned her head and looked at her expressionlessly, "You were frightened when you went out, and you drank lotus seed heart boiled Coptis chinensis water for three days in a row. The good medicine is bitter and good for the disease, so if you don't accept it, you hold it back."

Qin Lanshang: "..."

Shen Wuduan didn't seem to see anyone bullying his granddaughter under his nose, coughed lightly, and said: "Don't be stubborn, Mi Feng told me, you are even willing to make ice soul beads for him , is it so difficult for you to admit it now?"

Chu Xiwei stopped talking again, as long as he didn't want to speak, he couldn't type a word even with a stick.

"Five years ago, I sent a girl to your room, but you threw her out, and said that she had a broken sleeve... Tsk, I thought you were lying to me." Shen Wuyuan rubbed the white jade wrench in his hand. , "Later I saw hundreds of portraits in your room, all of which were of a man. At that time, I realized that you were not lying."

After a pause, Shen Wudu said again: "As soon as I saw him today, I knew who you were thinking of. This kid is a few years older than you. I think he follows you in everything, even if it has nothing to do with Fengyue. It’s good to always have you in my heart.”

Chu Xiwei remained silent, Qin Lanshang covered her mouth and dared not interrupt, only Sun Minfeng spoke up: "But he is still an outsider after all."

"As long as this bastard is not stupid, one day he will become a wife." Shen Wudu glanced at Chu Xiwei with a half-smile, "Besides, it's not just because of this that I let him live in Fuxue Courtyard."

Chu Xiwei was a little puzzled, and heard Shen Wudu's voice suddenly sinking: "Pianfeng said his name is Ye Fusheng, I have never heard of this name, but I am very familiar with the moves he performed just now."

Chu Xiwei's heart skipped a beat, and Shen Wuyuan turned his head. The smile on his face was as solid as a stroke of ink on a piece of parchment paper. His eyes were deep, and he asked word by word, "He is the successor of Jinghong Dao? What did you do back then?" You don’t even want to say who taught you "Jing Hong Jue", now it seems that it is him, right?"
