Shen Huaichu and Xie Lingzhi didn't deliberately rush for time, they walked and stopped all the way, traveling around mountains and rivers, and it took more than half a month to reach Yuyu Mountain.It's not that they are not in a hurry to go to Zhitian Peak to find the answer, but because through the Wanhua Mirror, they saw that the head of the Beilin Sword Sect strengthened the barrier of Zhitian Peak and arranged for seven elders to guard it in turn.

At this time, the vertical and horizontal meeting was approaching, and people were coming and going at the foot of the mountain, which was usually cold. All kinds of shops were opened, and the inns in the nearby towns were full.Except for the Nine Great Immortal Sects, the rest of the casual cultivators and the small sect Beilin Jianzong who came to participate will not be provided with accommodation, and they will not even be allowed to go to Beilin Jianzong before the start of the conference.

Shen and Xie naturally didn't get that kind of treatment when they were not with the Qixia faction. They wandered around the town for a long time before finding an empty room in a small inn. There was another person sitting in the room.

Shen Huaichu sat up after blinking, moved to the side of the bed and took the cold tea in his hand which was placed on the table a foot away.The small inn has a small room, and the space is cramped, but everything is easy to hold. For this, Shen Huaichu is quite satisfied.He drank his tea, stretched his legs into his shoes, and asked the person in the chair, "Why are you here?"

"Come here to see you." Fu Shiye frowned, "Isn't that how I saw you that night? Did it happen during this time?"

This refers to the sudden growth of his body. Shen Huaichu didn't want to tell Fu Shiye the inside story, so he lied, saying that he was testing the medicine on the way with Xie Lingzhi, and it turned out to be what he is now.

"You're refining medicine indiscriminately." Fu Shiye's fan lightly tapped Shen Huaichu's forehead, quite helplessly.In the past two years they have known each other, Shen Huaichu often made some fools, no matter how many kinds of weird pills he made, Yu Xu was treated so badly.

Fu Shiye's tone was worried, but more gratified.Seeing that Shen Huaichu was about to get up, he took a step back and asked with a smile, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"

"Don't be busy yet." Shen Huaichu shook his head and dragged the Eight Immortals table to the center of the room, tilting his head and asked Fu Shiye, "Are you free? Come with me to count the magical artifacts, so that you can sell them if you don't need them."

"Okay." Fu Shiye made a gesture, signaling Shen Huaichu to take out the magic weapon.

On the way here, Shen Huaichu broke into another ancestral mansion and scooped up a lot of things. In addition to what he got at Kong Yi Zhenren's cave mansion before, he already saved a lot.The table was full of magical instruments, and Fu Shiye helped him to classify them, leaving the ones on one side and the ones that could be sold on the other side.

In the end, Shen Huaichu returned the snow-white sword to Fu Shiye. The vertical and horizontal competition will start soon, and he should not keep other people's entries.

When the sun was setting, Fu Shiye and Shen Huaichu had dinner at last after tidying up. The two walked out of the inn side by side, looking for a shop in the city that bought and sold magical artifacts.

It’s midsummer now, the snow in the city is no better than the snow on the mountains all year round, it’s fine when the wind blows, once the wind stops, Shen Huaichu feels like a walking ice cube, melting as he walks, his back and front are wet with sweat, and he looks at it again The Fu Shi page next to it is in sharp contrast.

Shen Huaichu wanted to complain, but Fu Shiye handed the fan in front of him, and he just shook it open a few times, when there was a commotion in front of him, and then someone screamed loudly, pushing the crowd away and running towards them Come.

"Demon, monster——"

"Go, let's go and have a look!" Shen Huaichu closed his fan and walked quickly, pulling Fu Shiye.

Surrounded by crowds is a coffin shop. Recently, the boss has taken over urgent business and has been working day and night in the shop.There is a finished coffin in the store now, but the lid fell to the ground and the corners were dented.A foul stench emanates from the coffin, which is why no one wants to go in.

Shen Huaichu pushed the crowd away, walked straight to the coffin, and leaned over to have a look.

Fortunately, he has seen a lot these years, otherwise he would throw up after just one glance.Inside the coffin was an incomplete female corpse, her eyes were wide open, half of her face was melted into the black liquid under the coffin, her arms were broken, floating like wood, her belly bulged like a woman in labor, and then she went down body is gone.

"Anyone come to recognize her? Who is she?" Shen Huaichu straightened up and asked the onlookers outside the store.

The women shook their heads one after another, and a bold man came out, pinched his nose and glanced quickly into the coffin, his expression changed suddenly, "This is Carpenter Luo's wife!"

The crowd burst into an uproar.

"Is there really a person inside?"

"How did Carpenter Luo's wife get in?"

"died?!"

"I saw her picking fruit with a vegetable basket in the morning!"

"I also talked to her..."

Another person came up to confirm, everyone said one word to another, as if a pot had exploded, the timid ones ran away quickly, and some couldn't hold back and retreated to the side to vomit.

Shen Huaichu walked around the coffin, lowered his voice and said: "This matter is unusual, it must have been done by someone in the devil's way."

Fu Shiye frowned slightly, and whispered out a name, "The Coffin King Fenggan."

The listener's expression froze, and he tapped the fan in his hand, "What is he doing with an ordinary mortal? Besides, the vertical and horizontal conference is approaching, and the nine immortal sects are gathered, so he is not afraid..."

The fan suddenly stopped, and Shen Huaichu raised his eyes, "This incident happened at the foot of Yuyu Mountain, and it is under the control of Beilin Jianzong. I will go to my master first, and you can go back and tell the sect."

He was raising his hand to hand back the fan, but Fu Shiye pulled him back to the side, only to see a person rush in, hold the coffin, look inside and start crying.

"My son... my poor wife..."

This person should be Carpenter Luo, Shen Huai Chu moved his mouth and said "sorry", and in a blink of an eye, he saw someone from the Beilin Sword Sect coming. He had seen the leader twice before, it was Xu Qiming of the Golden Core Stage, and the last The one at the end is obviously Gu Qingxing whom Shen Huaichu doesn't want to see in the near future.

Fu Shiying raised his eyebrows, nodded to Xu Qiming, and pulled Shen Huaichu and the Beilin Sword Sect to pass by.

Shen Huaichu avoided Gu Qingxing's gaze all the way, and even went around a bit when he passed by the boy, but he still didn't avoid the outstretched hand, which tightly clasped him, carrying the coolness of the snow-capped mountains, leisurely penetrated into his heart.

"When did you arrive?" Gu Qingxing looked down at him, the corners of his lips pursed into lines.

His tone was cold, but his gaze was extremely hot, which made Shen Huaichu uncomfortable. He retracted his wrist, but he didn't break away from the young man's hand.Shen Huaichu suppressed his anger and said, "Today, let go!"

Gu Qingxing asked again: "Where do you live?"

Shen Huaichu really didn't want to answer this question, so he moved towards Fu Shiye, who turned his fan and separated the hands of the two, saying in a calm tone, "It's better for Cultivator Gu to deal with the coffin shop first." "Fu Shiye blocked Gu Qingxing's view of Shen Huaichu with a half-embraced posture, turned the tip of his fan to point at the coffin, felt someone behind him tug on his sleeve, and immediately took Shen Huaichu away against the wind.

When he reached the cloud, Shen Huaichu let go of Fu Shiye, clasped his palms together and thanked him.

"What's your relationship with him?" Fu Shiye half-closed his eyes, staring at Shen Huaichu.

Shen Huaichu recalled the details of his relationship with Gu Qingxing, and then rolled his eyes, "It's probably a relationship that started to quarrel in three sentences."

"He..." Fu Shiye opened and closed the folding fan, hesitated to speak, and finally started another topic, "Go to the place and sell the magic weapon first, or go to your master?"

"There's no rush for the magic weapon. I'll go to my master first. You can go back too. When this happens, there must be a conspiracy behind it. Maybe those demon cultivators are plotting again." Shen Huaichu patted Fu Shiye's arm, and then Pointing to the direction of Yuyu Mountain.Fu Shiye took a deep look at him before stepping on another cloud and flying north.

After Fu Shiye disappeared, Shen Huaichu rubbed the hand held by Gu Qingxing, and then took out the jade bi to contact Xie Lingzhi.

Seven days later, the vertical and horizontal conference began. The conference will be held for ten days in total. The first five days will be fighting weapons, and the last five days will be martial arts. The venues are all in the Sun Moon Square.

At the opening of the conference, the head of Bei Lin Sword Sect, who seldom showed up, gave a speech in person, and cast spells, so that the trial high platform rose from the ground, and the seats gradually rose around the high platform, arranging the Sun Moon Square into a circular stand.

The well-known people naturally sit in one place, and the rest of the casual cultivators will make every effort, and friends of three or five will occupy one side of the seats.

Gu Qingxing was not interested in Douqi at all, but Xie Tingyun specially said a word to him before leaving Luoyue Peak: "Qixia sent Ye Hong's personal heir to take a sword to participate in Douqi, I have the honor to try it Give it a try, it is a good sword, you go and have a look, if you like it, as a teacher, go and ask him if he is willing to make a move."

Gu Qingxing immediately sneered: "No need, Master."

Xie Tingyun didn't say any more. After he left, the young man started to practice his sword. After practicing a set of sword techniques twice, he stopped abruptly and Yujian went down Luoyue Peak.

He was so angry that he wanted to see what was so good about the sword.

When Gu Qingxing arrived, the fighting equipment had already started, the stands were overcrowded, and he could only find a corner to stand there. Fu Shiye's sword hadn't come to the stage yet, so he stood with his sword in his arms, and looked at the Qixia faction, but he didn't see Shen Huaichu.

It has been seven days since I saw Shen Huaichu, recalling how he left with Fu Shiye at that time, Gu Qingxing felt irritable.

Now is the first round of Dou Qi, and the time for each magic weapon to be displayed is very short, seven or eight pieces have already been displayed in a stick of incense, and finally when Fu Shiye's sword came, a casual voice came from beside Gu Qingxing.

"The main material of this sword is meteoric iron. The origin of meteoric iron is in the extreme north, which is farther north than Yuyu Mountain. It is very close to the sea. It is very cold there, and when the wind blows, people will turn into popsicles."

"I used four magic jade beads. You know, the magic jade beads are from the south. They are hidden in the old nests of the nine giant spiders. There is one for each nest. As the name suggests, a total of four nests of the nine giant spiders have been dug."

"There are twelve heavy jade hooks. This is jade that can only be used by emperors in the world."

"The cooling water is the dew collected from the Bijin flower. You should know how much cooling water is needed to quench a sword, and also know what kind of cliff the Bijin flower grows on."

"At the end, I added a bottle of Tiggo blood."

The speaker's voice was slow, the sword on the high platform was drawn and sheathed, the silver light passed, and the sword startled the dragon, and applause erupted from the seats.

"It took my poor apprentice nearly a year to get all the materials together. In the wind and rain, the tip of the sword fell into the sea of ​​fire. Now the sword is famous, and it will definitely sell for a good price."

Gu Qingxing's expression changed, he clenched his hands into fists, and turned his head to ask, "Is it all the materials obtained by Shen Huaichu?"

"Of course not all, I also helped a little." Xie Lingzhi raised his hands and gestured, "You think, the meteorite is so big, he was only one year old at the time, and it took a lot of effort to put all the iron into the universe bag Of course, I can't just watch from the sidelines. Besides, the Nine Mother Spider, its venom can be inactivated once touched, and Xiao Huaichu is just a mortal body, so I naturally prepared a good outfit for him. Keep him from being splashed with venom."

"These things are very dangerous. I even hired the best carpenter in the world to make a coffin for him. I used velvet to cushion the bottom, and the lid was inlaid with night pearls, so that it wouldn't be too dark or too cold to lie in..."

Xie Lingzhi even started to pull the coffin bag as he spoke, as if he was going to take out the coffin, but Gu Qingxing stopped him with a dark face, "Where is he now?"

"In Qiankun Academy, he has always been obsessed with a certain ancient book, and it happens that only the Beilin Sword Sect has a lonely copy." Xie Lingzhi raised his chin lightly in a certain direction.

Gu Qingxing hurried away, walking very quickly, almost knocking down other people in the stands.Xie Lingzhi looked at the young man's leaving back with his arms folded, and smiled thoughtfully.

Qiankun Academy does not have an enchantment like Linyan Pavilion. This is an academy open to all disciples. Shen Huaichu only needs to apply invisibility to walk in through the main entrance.

The speed of the young Yujian was so fast that it came from the sky like a meteor crashing into Qiankun Academy, startling the guarding disciples.

He strode into the academy, glanced inside, a little annoyed why he didn't ask which book it was.Fortunately, Qiankun Academy is clean. At this time, there is no one else except the disciples on duty. The sound of pages turning is extremely obvious. The young man closed his eyes and listened for a while. Apart from the sound of turning pages, there was also a slight breathing and heartbeat, as well as the sound of drinking water and swallowing. sound.

Gu Qingxing stepped over and raised his hand to poke the open window.

"How did you find it!" Shen Huaichu pushed his fingers away with an annoyed voice.

"Anyway, I've found it. Remove the invisibility technique." The boy smiled very quickly.

Shen Huaichu was not very happy at first, but thinking that this person had a way to break his invisibility, he had no choice but to do so sullenly.

The young man finally saw the man he hadn't seen for a long time. This man was still red-faced, sitting by the window, with a book spread out on his lap, and a jug of wine beside him, but his expression was not very good.

"I'm sorry." Gu Qingxing rubbed the head of the angry Shen Huaichu.

Shen Huaichu waved Gu Qingxing's hand away in confusion, "Why do you suddenly apologize?"

"I shouldn't want that sword, I'm sorry." Shen Huaichu who was sitting on the window sill was taller than him, Gu Qingxing had to raise his head slightly to look directly into Shen Huaichu's eyes, he saw this person's eyes flicker, and turned his head away.

Shen Huaichu's tone was fierce: "Even if you say sorry, I won't give it to you."

"Then who do you want to give it to?" The young man squeezed Shen Huaichu's chin to make him turn around, narrowing his eyes slightly, showing a bit of danger.

This kind of Gu Qingxing made Shen Huaichu feel a little scared, he couldn't help but leaned back, but the young man forced him up, and finally Shen Huaichu was almost half hung outside.

Gu Qingxing could clearly smell the fruit wine on Shen Huaichu's body, the very sweet peach fragrance, mixed with a hint of spiciness, which made his heart itch, and he couldn't help getting closer.Shen Huaichu stretched out his hand to push Gu Qingxing, but the recoil made him fall back, and he had to climb onto the boy's arm to prevent him from falling.

At this moment, the scroll fell with a snap, which made Gu Qingxing wake up suddenly. He pulled Shen Huaichu back, picked up the book and stuffed it back into the man's hand, calmed down his expression and took the place of the flagon on the window sill, and glanced at the inside of the book Name - "Merry Romance".

"I specially ran to Qiankun Academy to see this thing?" The young man raised his eyebrows, took the book and flipped through two pages.

"What is 'this stuff'? It's about Jianghu stories." Shen Huaichu snatched the book back angrily, turned to the page he read before, and said with disgust, "Since when did you like to sit so close to people?"

Gu Qingxing ignored this sentence, and turned the topic back to the previous one, "Who are you going to give that sword to?"

"I won't give it to anyone. I'll sell it after the conference is over." Shen Huaichu leaned against the window, with the book spread out on his lap, picked up the wine glass from before, tilted the jug with the young man's hand, filled the glass, and took small sips Sipping it, he looked satisfied.

"Then sell it to me." Gu Qingxing said.

"Then I ask for ninety-nine million ninety-nine million high-grade spirit stones." Shen Huaichu glanced at him.

The boy nodded without hesitation.

Shen Huaichu turned his face and stared at him: "You have so much money?"

"I owe it first." Gu Qingxing spread his hands.

Shen Huaichu: "..." I didn't bother to talk to him.

They stopped talking, and after a while, Gu Qingxing broke the silence, "Are you still angry?"

Shen Huaichu twisted and didn't respond.

The windows are built for ventilation, so they are a bit narrow. As long as one of them is not leaning against the window, the two teenagers sitting side by side will become very crowded. The temperature of the teenager gradually transfers to him. After a while, he took back his own wine and stuffed it back into the Qiankun bag, and jumped to the ground with his legs.

"You can blow the air slowly, I'll find another place to sit." Shen Huaichu said.

"Go back to Yuefeng with me?" Gu Qingxing looked down at him.

"Why should I go back?" Shen Huaichu looked at him strangely.

Gu Qingxing: "Otherwise, where do you plan to live?"

Shen Huaichu: "I booked a room at the inn in the city, but I haven't checked out yet."

"Then you plan to run back and forth every day?" Gu Qingxing reached out and knocked on his forehead, "Are you tired?"

Shen Huaichu's eyes rolled, thinking about it, although the distance is only a blink of an eye after being able to control the wind, but psychologically, he always feels that he is wading through mountains and rivers, and he is very tired.

"You can still take a dip in the hot spring after you go back. If you take a dip every day, you won't be so afraid of the cold." The young man continued his efforts to lure Shen Huaichu.

It makes sense to say so, but there is a problem... "Where do I live? Except for the house of the three of you on Luoyue Peak, the rest are basically uninhabitable. I don't want to go to get the quilt again, and Xie Tingyun can't justify it."

"...Put you in the hot spring."

"That's good, I don't need to warm it first, and then it warms me. As soon as I go in, my whole body is warm."

Shen Huaichu rolled his eyes.

Gu Qingxing didn't refute, and stretched his long legs down from the window sill, took the "Merry Romance" in Shen Huaichu's hand, grabbed his wrist and walked out, saying: "I'll help you borrow the book."

"You dragged someone out of Qiankun Academy, that's really amazing." Shen Huaichu said indifferently, "Hehe".

Gu Qingxing: "..." He forgot.

Shen Huaichu glanced at the sky outside the window, broke free from Gu Qingxing's hand, snatched back his book, and leaned against the window again, "It's getting late, I'm going to Sanqing Peak, I'll take the book with me!"

After speaking, he re-cast the invisibility technique, stretched his hands, and turned out of the window.

Sanqing Peak is the place where the guests live temporarily, and the rest of the Eight Great Immortal Sects live there, so it doesn't take much thinking to know that Shen Huaichu went there to find people from the Qixia Sect.Gu Qingxing's raised brows gradually lowered, he stood there for a long time, finally just turned around, slowly walked through the stacked bookshelves, and walked out from the main entrance.

Yuyu Mountain is located in the northern part of Liuhuang, where the days are short and the nights are long.Gu Qingxing has not walked such a long distance for a long time, from Qiankun Academy to Qingwu Hall, then Linyan Pavilion, and finally back to Luoyue Peak.

He may not have slept in his own bed for a long time. The quilt has not been moved since it was neatly folded two years ago. The previous one was slightly different.

But it seems that this little quilt is no longer needed, because except for emergencies, Shen Huaichu will almost never turn into a spirit beast again.

Gu Qingxing went to the warehouse for the first time, and came back with a bag of coal at the bottom of the box and a charcoal brazier. After washing his hands, he added a bed of cotton wool to the bed, and then shook out the quilt and spread it out.

An hour and a half passed, and the sky above the head was turned upside down, but Shen Huaichu still did not come back.

The young man glanced around the yard, and then separated his spiritual sense to feel the barrier under Luoyue Peak, and then went to Sanqing Peak with Yujian.

The wind brought the sound of silk and bamboo, and the Luoyu Xiaozhu on Sanqing Peak was extremely lively. People gathered in the yard, a bonfire was lit in the center, and a whole sheep was roasted on a rack.Gu Qingxing saw Shen Huaichu at a glance. The latter was sitting under the tree opposite Fu Shiye, holding a shamisen in his arms, while Fu Shiye had a piano on his lap.

Shen Huaichu was drunk, relying on the tree behind him to prevent him from falling down, his light brown eyes were clouded with mist, and his cheeks were flushed with blush, he played and laughed while talking to Yu Xu next to him.

Gu Qingxing leaned against the door with his sword in his arms, staring at him closely.However, Shen Huaichu didn't realize it all the time, but some Qixia disciples came to ask him why he came here.

Yu Xu fell in love with a girl from Lingxiu Villa, and Shen Huaichu was using his not very bright head to make moves for Yu Xu, speaking sonorously and forcefully in line with the rhythm of the sanxian.

"How much do you know her? Does she like flowers or birds? I don't know? No, no, no, it's not difficult. Brother, I'll give you a trick. You just go and grab some wine, just that and that, and the girl Get drunk, and after doing this and that, everything about her will be yours!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiao blushed, and couldn't help but twist, Shen Huaichu laughed and hooked his shoulders, and was about to say something more, but Fu Shiye, who was opposite, put down his piano, walked over and grabbed his arm, held his sword, and He tore it off Wang Xiao.

"He's drunk, I'll take him back," Fu Shiying said.

"Okay, okay!" Wang Xiao nodded hurriedly.

"Tsk, then you must do what I say!" Shen Huaichu patted Yu Xu on the shoulder vigorously, and then followed Fu Shiye to the wing. Gu Qingxing stopped the two of them expressionlessly, and called Shen Huaichu's name in a calm voice .

Shen Huaichu ignored it.

"Master Gu, Huai Chu is very drunk, please come back tomorrow if you have anything to do." Fu Shiye said in a cold tone.

Gu Qingxing didn't even look at him, he reached out and waved his hand in front of Shen Huaichu.

——Still no response.

The boy's face was livid, and his voice was cold: "Short, follow me back."

Shen Huaichu still stood in place, lowered his head and played with his fingers. Gu Qingxing raised his hand to pull him, but the man suddenly raised his head and opened his arms, "So it's okay, Dad loves you..."

Gu Qingxing's forehead twitched, and he leaned over with a slumped face to hug him, but he didn't expect Shen Huaichu to take a step forward, then sneezed loudly, then picked up the boy's clothes and wiped his nose.

After wiping his snot, he took a step back with a serious expression, but his voice was unsteady: "Dad loves you, and Dad decided to pamper you tonight."

Gu Qingxing: "..." He grabbed Shen Huaichu by the collar, and dragged the naked short man onto his sword.

"My dear concubine, you are hurting me, and I don't want to fly, I want you to carry it!" Shen Huaichu struggled violently, even using spells, and then jumped to the ground, with his face up and his hips on his hips, pointing to the sky in mid-air. juvenile.

Gu Qingxing really wanted to catch him and beat him up, but because of the crowd... and he was reluctant, he finally had to follow him, return to the ground and squat down, letting him climb onto his back.

Shen Huaichu hung his arms in front of Gu Qingxing, and suddenly remembered something, turned around, and waved a small handkerchief towards Fu Shiye with a complex expression.

"Good night Shi Xiaoye, see you tomorrow!"

Gu Qingxing pinched Shen Huaichu's thigh and strode out of the courtyard.
