startled autumn

Han Banbu had already returned to Beijing, and before leaving, he left all of Han Bi's usual vehicles and tools, so that even though Han Bi was on a dangerous journey and was about to enter the tiger's mouth, he still didn't appear to be in the slightest under the control of others. He looked more and more like a rich man visiting famous mountains and rivers, following Bai Yan to Qishan in a leisurely manner.

So the scene became unbelievable: the kidnapper was squeezed into the pony carriage in front, but the kidnapped one was a sweet car and a BMW, a drinking buddy and a couple of poets, having a great time.

The sound insulation of the carriage was excellent, and Han and Chen couldn't help talking casually.

Han Bi: "I wanted to buy a few houses along the way for overnight stays, but it's a pity that Bai Yan only likes to walk in small forests, and I don't know what his eccentricity is."

Shen Zhiqiu: "Even if you buy a house, you can only stay for one night at most. I don't think it's necessary."

Han Bi seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: "You are afraid that if there are too many rooms, you will not be able to live with me anymore."

Shen Zhiqiu said blankly, "Why not?"

Han Bi asked him back: "Have you ever seen two men living in the same room?"

Shen Zhiqiu: "It's very common in Moyi." After nightfall, it's not surprising that brothers and sisters sleep together in the bunk. He was a low-level disciple in the past, so naturally he also slept in the bunk.

Han Bi: "..."

Shen Zhiqiu: "What's wrong?"

Han Bi said lightly: "I have never lived in the same room with others in my life, this is the first time, and you are the first."

Shen Zhiqiu suddenly fell into silence.

Han Bi had no choice but to ask, "What are you thinking?"

Shen Zhiqiu: "...I'm counting, which one are you?"

Han Bi was speechless, and Shen Zhiqiu was ashamed.

Apart from reading, wiping swords, and chatting on the road, they had a good relationship with Qingyong. Seeing her riding a horse outside, bumping constantly, they would ask her to get in the car to rest for a while from time to time.

Although Qing Yan has very little knowledge, she also knows that everything in Han Bi's carriage is a treasure, she caressed the small sandalwood window, bent her eyes and said with a smile: "Young Master Han, what kind of business do you do in the capital? "

"Eat, drink, play, and enjoy everything." Before Qing Yao could speak, Han Bi continued, "It's my turn to ask you."

Qinglong: "You ask."

Han Bi: "You are not yet eighteen, and you are still young, but Bai Yan is so important to you. Why?"

After pondering for a moment, Qinglong revealed the truth: "My sister is the wife of the leader, and the leader is my brother-in-law. He naturally trusts me more than others."

Han Bi was thoughtful: "So that's how it is."

"You are really difficult to talk to, so I won't ask you." Qing Yao knew that Han Bi was not easy to provoke, so she didn't dare to talk to him again, and instead asked Shen Zhiqiu, "I see you holding a sword every day, martial arts Not bad, you don't look... you don't look like his servant, were you a swordsman before?"

Han Bi rushed in front of Shen Zhiqiu to answer: "He was originally a disciple of a famous sect, but I invited him to be a steward."

There are half-truths and half-false words in this statement, but it is the most difficult to recognize.

Qing Huan looked at Shen Zhiqiu's blank expression, and asked, "Can he be a housekeeper? I'm afraid he won't ruin the family in the first month."

Shen Zhiqiu really didn't understand general affairs, so he could only lower his head in shame. At this time, Han Bi looked at his frustrated side face and smiled, "If he doesn't ruin his family, what's the use of having me as a master?"

Qing Yao had never seen such a strange master in his life, and was shocked for a while.

"Could it be that you do business just to prodigal him?"

Han Bi fooled her and said, "Why not?"

Qing Yan looked at Shen Zhiqiu with eyes full of envy: "Your life is really good."

Shen Zhiqiu was also very moved, and almost slipped his mouth: "Half a step is indeed very happy."

Qing Yan didn't hear it, but thought it was his self-proclaimed name, and nodded repeatedly.

Han Bi looked at these two extremely deceitful people, and was speechless immediately, waved his hand and let them play by themselves.

A group of people went south from here, and within a few days, they had already arrived at Qishan Mountain.

According to ancient books, the phoenix lives in Qishan.The members of the Fuluan Sect boasted that they were of the blood of the Phoenix, so they occupied an unnamed mountain in Guanzhong and named it Qishan. world.

When Han Bi and Shen Zhiqiu got out of the car, they saw Bai Yan already at the entrance of the mountain forest, screaming up to the sky, his soft voice like a warbler's cry echoed in the forest, after a while, several men in red bowed down and greeted him. to him.

Immediately afterwards, everyone entered the mountain forest all the way, and the surroundings were all similar scenery. There was no snow in the Qishan Mountains, but there were rustling leaves, paved all over the mountains with golden color. The birds startled.

It was a stone phoenix rock sculpture, standing on the altar, engraved with sycamore branches around the altar, half of the phoenix perched on the sycamore, but spread its wings, surrounded by red-clothed believers, muttering teachings, Like a raging fire, surrounded by the rebirth of the ancient god bird Nirvana.

Bai Yan walked up to the altar, and behind him was the stone sculpture of Phoenix. He was dressed in red and looked even more beautiful. With a wave of his long sleeves, the entangled stone carvings around the altar were separated along the lines, as if opening a door, revealing a Come down the passage.

Han Bi thought to himself, secretly thinking again, why didn't the Fuluan sect change its name to the Dishumen?Shen Zhiqiu didn't think as much as he did. He just opened his mouth in a daze as he stared at the unimaginable mechanism, and then he obediently closed it when Han Bi reached out and patted his chin.

"The road to Mount Qi is very secret, so it's inconvenient for outsiders to know about it." Qing Yan took a piece of white silk, first covered Shen Zhiqiu's eyes, and then smiled at Han Bi: "Young Master Han, I'm sorry."

Han Bi glanced at Shen Zhiqiu, saw that his eyes were blindfolded, he couldn't help but straighten his back, still stubbornly turned his face towards the source of the sound, then subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold his wrist, as if to guide him in the direction.

Shen Zhiqiu felt the familiar palm temperature, and suddenly relaxed.

Qing Yan had a panoramic view of the little movements of the two of them, her cheeks flushed slightly, she took another piece of white silk, and covered Han Bi's eyes.

Then, Qing Yan whispered: "Young Master Han, I'll take you away, give me your hand."

Han Bi said lightly, "I don't like contact with outsiders."

Looking at the two of them holding hands together, Qing Huan was breathless for a moment.

Knowing that what Han Bi said was not a lie, Shen Zhiqiu had no choice but to extend his hand to Qing Huan on Han Bi's behalf: "Miss Qing Huan, if you're just afraid of getting lost, it's the same for holding my hand."

Qing Yan grabbed Shen Zhiqiu's hand angrily, and led the two of them into the passage.

Han Bi asked, "Where's the White Banquet?"

Qing Huan took Shen Zhiqiu by the hand, touched the hard calluses in his palm, felt that his hand was much wider compared to the woman's, she was stunned for a moment, and absent-mindedly replied: "Master...Master, he doesn't need to go with us."

Han Bi frowned, secretly remembering this matter.

Qishan turned out to be an underground palace.

Han Bi and Shen Zhiqiu followed Qing Xing around in the dark passage, seeing only the dim candlelight penetrating through the white silk, they knew that there must be many candles or oil lamps lit in the underground palace, making it as bright as day.

"The Qishan Mountain you are talking about turns out to be a labyrinth." Han Bi had already given up remembering the number of turns and directions. After all, no matter how stupid Qing Huan was, he would definitely know that he would have to take them through many detours, so he had no choice but to say, "You don't have to. Go around in circles again, I don’t remember the way.”

Qing Yan's laughter was particularly clear in the underground palace: "Mr. Han is so smart, he has discovered all of this."

Shen Zhiqiu: "Where are we going?"

But Qing Yan pulled off the white silk in front of Shen Zhiqiu's eyes, and smiled at him who was dazed, "Here we are."

Hearing this, Han Bi also took off the white silk, and his vision was immediately clear.

Under the Qishan underground palace, the surroundings lie like silver snakes, full of twisting and twisting secret passages, extending in all directions, hiding murderous intentions, and in the center of the underground palace, there is a tiankeng. There are plank roads connected in the air, connecting several holes on the rock wall; there is a sparkling pool lying on the ground, and a towering sycamore tree grows on the island in the middle of the lake, with flowing waves falling leaves and shadows falling in the cold pool, In the water mist, it is like Qionglou in the sea city, swaying endlessly.

There are firefly floating lights in the pool, reflecting bright colors in the cave.

Qinglong: "This is the place where we pray."

After all, she bowed down gracefully.

By the pool, there are many people in red, all muttering something softly, in the same posture as the green ones.

Although it was the first time for Han Bi to see this kind of battle, he was naturally calm and unmoved, but he also had doubts in his heart: Fuluan Sect can linger in Qishan Mountain so far, there are so many followers, and the court didn't find it, it's really weird .

Shen Zhiqiu was unresponsive and relatively reticent, so he stood aside and did not make a sound.

After Qinglong worshiped the sacred tree, he led them to a cave entrance, followed by another passage, but after only a few dozen steps, they arrived at a cave that was as bright as day.

If the surrounding rock walls and excessive lights are excluded, this place is no different from an ordinary banquet hall.

Bai Yan was sitting upright in the upper seat, with an indifferent expression, his gaze fell on them lightly, without any emotion.

"This is Mount Qi, the only paradise in the world."

Han Bi thought for a while and asked sincerely, "How much is your land? Can I buy it?"

Along the way, there are stone carvings, ponds, flowing water and floating lamps. Han Bi couldn't help feeling that the decoration here is really good, and it's worth buying.

Bai Yan: "Not for sale."

Han Bi regretted it very sincerely: "You think about it again, I will ask again later."

Shen Zhiqiu devoted himself to his duty and stood behind Han Bi, imitating Han Banbu's appearance, watching Han Bi's back intently.

Feeling his burning gaze, Han Bi finally remembered what was going on, and asked, "I kept my promise and came to Qishan. Where is the antidote for Xuelu Pill?"

Bai Yan smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth curled up, but the corners of his slender eyes didn't move at all. He looked neither male nor female, neither happy nor angry, extremely weird: "The antidote?"

Shen Zhiqiu couldn't help clenching the Shadow Stepping Sword in his hand.

Bai Yan said lightly: "Since you are alive, I will not let you die here."

Han Bi sighed, "I understand."

Bai Yan smiled and said, "Young Master Han, I want to hear what you understand."

Han Bi: "You mean that although we can live, we will never be able to get out."

There was a murderous look in Shen Zhiqiu's eyes, but Han Bi keenly caught it, so he pressed his hand to tell him to be calm, Shen Zhiqiu said in a low voice: "He didn't intend to give an antidote, we were deceived by him. "

Han Bi shrugged his shoulders and said, "In Quheng City, he promised to give you the antidote. It was a stopgap measure. He knew that as long as I came to Qishan, I would be trapped in this maze and couldn't get out. Now he doesn't want to." Give the antidote, what can you and I do?"

Shen Zhiqiu knew that he had dragged Han Bi down, and said dejectedly, "It's all my fault."

Han Bi: "Do you believe me?"

This was the second time for Shen Zhiqiu to hear Han Bi's question.

His answer finally came out: "I believe it."

Han Bi smiled and said, "That's it...don't be afraid, I will take you out alive."

He was so confident, the worry in Shen Zhiqiu's heart suddenly eased a bit, and he calmed down.
