Gu Lingxiao learned from Zong Dai that the master was going to leave for a few days, so he hurried to the mountain gate, but fortunately Chi Ning hadn't left yet.

Shufeng was terrified of being stared at by Gu Lingxiao, and thought to himself, it wasn't that he wanted to elope with Chi Xianzun.

While thinking, he retreated from Gu Lingxiao's sight.

Gu Lingxiao walked up to Chi Ning very naturally, and said in an aggrieved tone, "Master always wants to abandon me."

Chi Ning moved his lips and was about to say something, but Gu Lingxiao continued, "No matter where Master is going, I will go with you."

Everything was said by the little apprentice, Chi Ning sighed, trying to solve the current dilemma.

Chi Ning said to Shen Qiuting: "This journey will be very tiring."

Shen Qiuting replied respectfully: "After learning about the arrangement, I learned a lot of details about the case from my colleagues in the Department of Criminal Justice, which may be helpful to Chi Xianzun."

The Xingjian Division has a long-standing tradition of recruiting disciples to follow the elders down the mountain to practice.It was Chi Ning's mistake to remember the disciple's name wrongly, and the rules should not be broken because of it.

Shen Qiuting has already said so, Chi Ning's refusal to agree will show that he is restless and not keeping his word.

Chi Ning looked at Qi Yuge again, and Qi Yuge nodded slightly.

"That's my trouble." Chi Ning let go.

During the conversation between the two, Gu Lingxiao kept looking at Shen Qiuting coldly.

The last time Gu Lingxiao's demonic energy broke out, he acted insanely, and he couldn't remember exactly what happened after he woke up.

He has always kept his devilish energy well, how could he suddenly lose control in front of Chi Ning that day?

Because only Shen Qiuting was present at the time, Gu Lingxiao subconsciously felt that he had something to do with the other party, so he had grudges and doubts about Shen Qiuting.

Gu Lingxiao looked at Shen Qiuting, wanting to see through the skin of the latter's intricate thoughts.

But Shen Qiuting always smiled gently, and even nodded to Gu Lingxiao when he met Gu Lingxiao's eyes, showing no flaws.

Because of the addition of Gu Lingxiao, a spirit horse followed the original carriage.

Logically speaking, the two disciples should ride horses, and Chi Ning should ride the carriage alone.

But in full view, Gu Lingxiao opened Chi Ning's compartment door.Chi Ning's eyes moved slightly, and he pressed the folding fan in his hand against Gu Lingxiao's shoulder: "You went to the wrong place."

Gu Lingxiao nimbly got into the carriage and sat on Chi Ning's side: "The injury on my hand is not healed yet, so I can't pull the reins."

The wound Gu Lingxiao mentioned was the sword wound from the day when he sparred with Shen Qiuting.

Chi Ning had seen the wound, and he had already healed well. He didn't expose it, and quietly gave Gu Lingxiao a seat.

Shen Qiuting rode his horse and followed behind, staring at the end of the carriage, his gentle expression faded away, revealing a gloomy gaze.

The carriage was driven by several top-level spirit stones, and the carriage was extremely stable. The interior of the carriage was spacious and warm. Chi Ning sat quietly on the cushion for a while, and felt drowsy.

Gu Lingxiao next to him was in good spirits: "Master is going on a long trip, why don't you tell me such a big thing?"

Chi Ning covered it with his sleeve and yawned a little: "It's not a big deal, there are still doubts about a case, I need to investigate it myself."

After all, Chi Ning took out the file from the storage bag and gave it to Gu Lingxiao.

Gu Lingxiao opened the file: "Then you can't hide it from me,"

If it was in the past, Chi Ningren's apprentice complained aggrievedly, and the matter would have passed.

But thinking of Gu Lingxiao's estrangement from him recently, Chi Ning subconsciously followed up: "Don't you have something to hide from me..."

Gu Lingxiao, who was watching the case carefully, did not respond to Master's words.

Chi Ning saw that Gu Lingxiao didn't speak a word, and assumed that he was acquiescing.

Sure enough, the little apprentice has a girl he likes.

Gu Lingxiao finished reading the written records in a short time.

It said that strange things happened in a place called Chongming Town.

The people outside the town reported to the police that the daughter who married into Chongming Town and the man who went to work in Chongming Town all lost contact without exception and never left the town again.

Chongming Town is like a monster's bloody mouth, swallowing all the living people who enter it.

The most strange thing is that none of the people who reported the crime lived in Chongming Town, and they didn't directly witness the scene in the town.

In other words, the real residents of Chongming Town have never doubted their living environment.

This case was first handled by the government, and the government sent people to investigate several times, and the people who handled the case said that there was nothing unusual in the town.

So the matter in Chongming Town became an unsolved case, and after several twists and turns, it was reported to Cuyu Peak and assigned to Yaoguang Hall.

After thinking for a while, Gu Lingxiao probably judged that there was a phantom formation in Chongming Town.

He turned his head to discuss with Chi Ning, but found that Chi Ning was leaning against the wall of the carriage and fell asleep peacefully.

Gu Lingxiao gently embraced Chi Ning's shoulder, and let someone lean on his shoulder. Chi Ning struggled a few times in his dream, almost waking up.

Holding Chi Ning's wrist, Gu Lingxiao lost some spiritual power to him.

After the spiritual practice, the spiritual powers of the two parties were incomparable. Chi Ning only felt that his whole body was wrapped in warm currents, and he fell into a good dream with a few soft hums.

***

The carriage went away, and the people who saw them off gradually returned.

Only Qi Yuge remained.

As the sun rises gradually, the sky is dyed orange red, and the color spreads to the limitless.

Qi Yuge suddenly called to the figure in the distance: "Xie Jiuze."

Xie Jiuze stopped and looked back at him.

There is no one around, it is quiet and bright.

"I'm leaving too." Xie Jiuze heard Qi Yuge say.

He gave a look of disbelief, as if the man with the strings could no longer manipulate his puppet.

Qi Yuge smiled brightly with peach blossom eyes: "Why, you just slept with me last night, and now you can't bear to feel like me?"

Xie Jiuze's face was ugly: "What kind of trick are you playing?"

"It's not a trick," Qi Yuge took out a waist card, and said slowly, "I'm sorry for pestering you for so long."

The waist card can be seen to have been cut open, and it is divided into two from the middle, and the one in Qi Yuge's palm is exactly one half of it.

This is unique, a token passed down to Cuyu's successive heads.

When it came to Xie Jiuze, it was divided equally between the two brothers.

"People in the world say that I, Qi Yuge, loves power, and I'm worried about the fact that Master didn't pass on the headship to me back then. I've carried this bad reputation for a long time," Qi Yuge said proudly, and handed the waist card to Xie Jiuze, "Now pay it back to you." .”

"A-Ning is indifferent, and won't interfere with the daily affairs of the sect. It's all yours, Xie Jiuze, and no one will hold you back. Your wish for many years has finally come true."

"congratulate."

"In exchange, you let me go."

After taking the waist card, Xie Jiuze held it tightly in his hand, without giving Qi Yuge another look.

A look of pain flashed across Qi Yuge's eyes, and then he was filled with a smile.

He blew his bone whistle to call for his mount, and got on the horse.

Qi Yuge almost forgot that before he fell in love with Xie Jiuze, he just wanted to run freely in the world of mortals and be the freest casual cultivator.

Travel the rivers and lakes, act chivalrously.

And for so many years, his status, fame, love and hatred have confined him to a corner.

The world is a cage, and Cuyufeng is also a cage.

The horse's hooves stepped on the dust, and the rustling wind passed by the ears.

Qi Yuge felt refreshed. After this trip, he would be able to repay Xu Bohan's life and repay his debts. He would never owe Jiuze anything.

At the gate of the mountain, Xie Jiuze looked at Qi Yuge who was drifting away, and felt that he was naive: "Don't think about retreating completely, you will come back one day."
