lead fades away

"How could this be?" Han Shuo was taken aback.

"It's strange, isn't it?" Qing Shi smiled lightly, "I haven't figured out why she died until now. The Yan family is actually not bad to her. They didn't stingy with food, drink, clothing, and didn't force her to remarry, let alone Force her to die. Although cynicism and sarcasm are inevitable, but who let her make mistakes first and make the whole family lose face? If you have to say what the Yan family has done, it can only be forced to ask about the identity of Qingshi's biological father But isn't it a matter of course? Whose girl has a child out of wedlock for no reason, and the family members have to ask clearly?"

"You are talking to the Yan family now." Han Shuo frowned and said with a little doubt.

"One yard is one yard. The woman's death has nothing to do with the Yan family, and it doesn't mean that the Yan family is so good." Qingshi shrugged, "Although I left the Yan family when I was five years old, the Yan family did But I clearly saw it in my eyes and remembered it in my heart. Moreover, I was young at that time, and the people around me were not wary of me. I knew many things better than some adults in the Yan family. For example, the Yan family Although her daughters are married off, none of them can give birth to children."

"Huh?" Han Shuo couldn't help being taken aback.

"It is true that the Yan family sells their daughters for glory, but they attach great importance to the inheritance of their own blood, and they will never allow children with the blood of the Yan family to fall into the hands of foreigners." Qingshi continued, "So, the Yan family's inheritance Before the daughter leaves home, she will be given a secret drug to make her fertile impossible."

"Feng Xi also..."

"It's hard to say, grandma." Qingshi shook his head, "I know, and what I saw is that the daughter will only take this secret medicine after she is sure of her family, not after birth, otherwise the woman would not have the chance to give birth. It's too light. Besides, there are daughters in the Yan family who recruit husbands and don't marry. Most of these women give birth normally, and the children born naturally follow the mother's surname Yan. Well, the Qingliu who was sent to serve you must have eaten the secret. For medicine, Qing Wu's body might be tampered with."

——What kind of family is this? !

Han Shuo was speechless, but soon he couldn't help asking, "They also gave you this medicine?"

"No." Qing Shi shook her head, "The woman was just guarding against this, so she handed me over to my aunt directly, and didn't give anyone else a chance to touch it. And even if I ate it, I didn't care. I hate it so much that I'm not interested in having a baby with a woman."

"Actually, if you really want to pursue it, the worst thing the Yan family has ever done to me is to give me a woman's name." Qing Shi rubbed his nose and continued half-jokingly, "But I don't care about this name." I don’t hate it, I don’t know the inside story, and I can’t think of the weird name.”

"Then you still have to give away the descendants of the Yan family." Han Shuo frowned.

"Why, are you reluctant?" Qing Shi raised her eyebrows and asked back.

"Nonsense again!" Han Shuo slapped Qingshi's ass, "I want to see Xuan Ziling's expression when he sees these two people more than you do, but they are your blood relatives after all, I'm afraid you will feel guilty in the future regret."

"Don't worry, my heart is very cold." Qing Shi replied without thinking.

"Well, it's true." Han Shuo's face suddenly broke into a smirk, "I treat you like this, but you still want to leave. I really don't know what made your heart, and it can't be made of ice for a thousand years?"

"Ten thousand years." Qingshi replied solemnly.

"Shut up!" Han Shuo was annoyed, he grabbed Qingshi's body and rubbed it until he tossed Qingshi until his face turned red and his hips turned red, but he let go of Qingshi, got up and straightened his clothes.

"What do you mean?!" Qing Shi asked angrily.

"I'm going to Hengchu's place. I can't rush to talk about such unpleasant things on New Year's Eve tomorrow." Han Shuo replied indifferently.

"Walk slowly!" Qing Shi rolled his eyes, got up and walked towards the stone chamber on the rock wall.

Han Shuo curled his lips, straightened his clothes, and soon turned around and left the cave.

It was late at night when Han Shuo came back, and Qingshi and Wangshuo were huddled on the Babu bed in the bedroom, chatting.Seeing Han Shuo coming in, Wang Shuo jumped out of bed knowingly and went back to the stone room above.

"What's the result of the talk?" Qing didn't even get off the ground to greet him, and continued to lean on the bed by himself.

"You'll know after the next year." Han Shuo took off his coat, lay down next to Qingshi, put his arms in his arms, "Go to sleep, tomorrow will be a toss."

"Tomorrow, I just need to open my mouth and go out, there is nothing to worry about." Qing Shi muttered.

"Hmph." Han Shuo questioned meaningfully, but didn't say any more, and closed his eyes with his arms around Qingshi.

The next day, Qingshi didn't wake up until it was mid-sun.When he opened his eyes, Han Shuo was no longer by his side. He moved his ears and heard some movement outside the house. It seemed that a man and a beast were making trouble in the yard.Qing Shi simply washed up, put on his clothes and walked out. Sure enough, Han Shuo was playing chess with Wang Shuo in the yard, or more precisely, Han Shuo was teasing Wang Shuo with a purple elixir.

"Didn't you say that it is not allowed to take pills?!" Qing Shi cried out angrily.

"Don't worry, it won't be able to eat it." Han Shuo dodged Wang Shuo's bite and jumped to Qing Shi's side.

"Sure enough, this guy has no good intentions and deliberately teased me!" Wang Shuo chased after him angrily, squatted beside Qingshi and complained.

"Who fooled you, you deserve it!" Qing Shi patted Wang Shuo's head without any sympathy, then turned to Han Shuo and asked, "Are you going to have a New Year's Eve dinner with the Sect Leader today?"

"Hmm." Han Shuo put away the Purple Spirit Pill and asked, "Why, you don't want to come with me?"

"Yeah, there's no place for me in that place, and I can only stand and stare at it when I go there." Qing Shi shrugged.

"Follow me for a turn before leaving," Han Shuo said.

"That's good." Qing Shi thought for a while before nodding his head and replied, "Save that everyone has a group of disciples, but you are alone and don't even have a waiter. You feel uncomfortable, and others will find it awkward."

"You're so talkative again!" Han Shuo gave him a slight look.

"By the way, Wang Wang will follow you at night." Qing Shi said again, "There must be a lot of good things at the table at your place, so give Wang Wang some to eat, so as not to waste it!"

"Okay! Okay!" Wang Shuo immediately wagged his tail happily.

Han Shuo glanced at Wang Shuo, nodded, and agreed.

On the last day of the year, the entire Xiantrumen was so lively that it seemed that there was another God Transformation Ceremony.Although the firecrackers and fireworks cannot be set off until evening, the decorations such as lanterns and ribbons have already been hung up.The main hall of the inner mountain where the head is located will entertain the high-level monks of the whole sect, and the main hall of the five main peaks will also hold banquets for the low-level disciples.All the monks, no matter if they are bigu or not, will open their bellies one night to taste the delicacies of the world, drink the wine of immortals, and celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another.

When it was getting dark, Han Shuo led Qing Shi and Wang Shuo out of the cave, and went to the main hall in the inner mountain to attend the dinner of the senior monks.

When the two of them and the beast arrived at the main hall, there were already seven or eight people. Except for a few monks who were in retreat and unable to go out, only Zhenjun Hengchu and his disciples had not yet appeared.Seeing Han Shuo coming in, all the monks present stood up and saluted Han Shuo, and Han Shuo also nodded in return as he walked forward.

As a monk of Xianchumen who is second only to True Monarch Hengchu, Han Shuo was assigned the second seat, and Qingshi naturally had no place to sit, so he had to stand obediently behind Han Shuo. Shuo Ke Li Ke stood leisurely.Next to Han Shuo was a rather old Nascent Soul cultivator. After Han Shuo took his seat, he began to chat with him, asking about Chong's concern in a roundabout way.

No one paid any attention to it. The work of serving tea and water was done by the disciples under the master, so he didn't need to work on his master; Fairy Fengxi, who was close to him, was still far away from Han Shuo, and was busy with other monks at the moment. Chatting, regardless of whether he is interesting or not.Being bored, Qing Shi could only stare and look around, looking for fun.

Consciously or unintentionally, Qing Shi's gaze soon met She Ji's.

Qing Shi immediately smiled brightly, but She Ji's originally very decent smile froze in an instant, and there were patches of haze in his eyes.After staring at Qingshi coldly like a poisonous snake for a while, She Ji turned his head and stopped looking at him.

--coward.

Qing Shi pouted secretly.

Not long after, Zhenjun Hengchu also led several of his disciples into the main hall, and all the monks in the hall hurriedly stood up to greet him. Han Shuo also stood up and bowed his hands to Zhenjun Hengchu.

After Zhenjun Hengchu took his seat, the disciples on duty in the main hall began to serve food and drink.Han Shuo also winked at Qingshi, signaling that he can leave the table and dodge others.

Qing Shi didn't want to stay here for a long time, and now he finally got Han Shuo's "will", and immediately retreated to a corner of the hall calmly, and then quietly got out through the corner door.

The banquets in the main hall opened earlier than the five main peaks. After all, the peak masters had to go back to the halls of the five main peaks to take care of a group of low-level disciples, and the elders also went back to their respective elder halls to spend New Year's Eve with their disciples.So, when Qingshi arrived at the first peak, what he saw was Shen Chenzhou and his brothers who were busy directing a group of young disciples in the Qi refining period to arrange a dinner in the hall.

"Why did you come here?" Seeing Qingshi approaching, Shen Chenzhou hurriedly put down the work at hand and greeted him.

"It's boring." Qing Shi sighed.

"I don't think you're idle, you're here to annoy me on purpose." Shen Chenzhou rolled his eyes lightly, and was about to sneer again when a low-ranking disciple ran up to him with a stack of plates and yelled at him. Ask what to do with the extra plates.

"Put it in the left side hall for later use." Shen Chenzhou dismissed the little disciple, turned his head and spread his hands towards Qingshi, "I'm very busy right now, so I can't entertain you, you should go to other places to have fun."

"Okay, okay." Qing Shi pouted helplessly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait." Shen Chenzhou stretched out his hand to grab him again, and stuffed a storage bag into his hand, "The money for selling the spiritual weapon, take it back and count it, just to pass some time."

"Yeah, it's really good to kill some time." Qingshi rolled his eyes, put away his storage bag, and walked out of the Jinluan Hall.

Qingshi came to Shen Chenzhou to find out if there were any rumors in the past two days, especially if the news that She Ji sent two living people to Han Shuo yesterday was spread.But looking at Shen Chenzhou's busy appearance, the palace is not the place to talk about such things, so it is difficult for him to speak, and he only misses the time when Xinyi was still around.

Qing Shi is a guy with a weak personality, and it is uncomfortable to insist on pretending to be close to him. Most of his contacts with fellow students are limited to the shallowness of a gentleman's friendship, and Shen Chenzhou is the only one who has a deep friendship.After leaving Lingtian, he lost a lot of contacts, and Han Shuo was always troubled by something, and he didn't have time to reorganize another network.A while ago, when Xinyi was around, he was okay, and he could always bring him some news about the low-level disciples. Now that Xinyi is gone, the only source of news for him is Shen Chenzhou.

Qing Shi was thinking wildly while walking down the mountain, but a tail following behind him disturbed his thoughts in an ignorant manner.Qing Shi stopped immediately, turned around and looked at Su Fang who had been following him since he left the Jinluan Hall.

"Senior Brother Yan." Seeing Qingshi turned around, Su Fang didn't panic, and with a smile on his face, he quickened his pace and chased after him.

"Senior Brother Su?" Qing Shi raised his eyebrows nonchalantly.

"Brother Yan Mingjian, I do have something to ask for." Su Fang smiled shyly.

"Tell me, but I don't guarantee that I will help you." Qing Shi said indifferently.

"This matter is just a matter of little effort to senior brother." Su Fang saluted Qingshi seriously, then raised his head and said, "You also know that during the big competition in the door, my inappropriate words and deeds made Elder Han unhappy. It should be my fault, but now rumors are spreading, even senior brother Shen Chenzhou has been involved..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm in a hurry." Qing Shi interrupted with a sullen face.

Su Fang couldn't help but froze, obviously he didn't expect Qingshi to be so shameless, but soon forced a smile and said, "Sorry, Senior Brother Yan, I... I just want to see Elder Han again and explain what happened that day clearly , lest Senior Brother Shen suffer because of me."

"How do you explain it?" A sneer appeared on the corner of Qingshi's mouth immediately, "Tell Elder Han that Shen Chenzhou doesn't want to practice swords?"

"No, no, no." Su Fang shook his head hastily, "I misunderstood Senior Brother Shen before, I just saw his sad face all day and mistakenly thought that he didn't want to practice sword... But I really did it out of good intentions, after all, I was forced to go I know all too well how sad it is to do something you don't want to do..."

"You want to see Elder Han?" Qing Shi smiled and asked.

"Yes." Su Fang immediately looked expectantly at Qingshi, waiting for him to say the words of promise.

But Qingshi stretched out his hand to pinch his chin, lifted it up, and looked at him like appreciating.

"Brother Yan..." Su Fang seemed to be frightened by Qingshi's action, and his whole body stiffened.

"If I let you see Elder Han, what benefits will I get?" Qing Shi asked pointedly.

"I..." Su Fang didn't continue, because Qingshi's thumb had already penetrated into his mouth, pried open his lips and teeth, and teased the tongue coating inside.

"Let me see your sincerity." Qing Shi said bewitchingly.

Following Qing Shi's voice, Su Fang sucked the thumb in his mouth like a demon, wrapping, licking, and even fondling, just like...

"Very proficient." Qingshi pulled out his thumb, let go of Su Fang, then took out a silk handkerchief and wiped it on his thumb, his originally charming expression turned into a look of disgust, "I usually serve men less Bar?"

"Yan, Junior Brother Yan..." Su Fang was really stunned at the moment - what did he do just now? !

Wipe your fingers clean, lightly burn the silk handkerchief to ashes with a fire-igniting tactic, turn your head, and look at Su Fang mockingly, "I don't know which man Su Shidi usually serves? Or, which men?"

Su Fang stood there dumbfounded, speechless, but his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

——Did it hit seven inches?

Qing Shi pouted, put his head in front of Su Fang, and viciously spat out the last blow with only two words, "It's really dirty!"

After finishing speaking, Qingshi didn't check his results again, turned around and went down to the first peak without looking back.

——Shen Chenzhou may have bumped into something that Su Fang cared about and hated him so much.

Qing Shi thought so, but didn't take this matter too seriously.When he saw Su Fang, he remembered that he still had something serious to do, which is why he said "in a hurry", because he was really in a hurry right now.

After getting off the first peak, Qing Shi held his breath and ran towards the third peak, which he hadn't been to for a long time, avoiding the guarding disciples on duty, and went straight to the Shuiling Hall on the top of the peak.

At the moment, the Shuiling Hall is also very busy, with many disciples coming in and out busy preparing for the dinner, and most of the disciples in charge of guarding are absent-minded, indulging in the excitement and festivities of the Chinese New Year—even evil cultivators have to celebrate the New Year, how can anyone Would be so careless to make trouble at this time!

Qingshi easily avoided the checkpoint in the hall, and got into an empty room in the apse with ease.Although it is empty at this time, it is normally She Ji's place of practice, and even the closest disciples are not allowed to approach it at will.And this also provided convenience for Qing Shi, the banquet at the head's side would last at least an hour, and he would have enough time to finish what he wanted to do before She Ji came back.

Cautiously mobilizing the five senses and confirming that there is nothing abnormal in the room, Qing Shi walked to the middle of the room and removed the futon that She Ji used when meditating, revealing the "improved" Spirit Gathering Formation below.

Speaking of which, this matter goes back more than ten years.When Qing Shi realized that She Ji not only refused to teach him the exercises, but even wanted to destroy his cultivation and future to take revenge on Fairy Fengxi, Qing Shi prepared this "big gift" for She Ji.The spirit-gathering formation under the futon was originally set up by She Ji himself to speed up his practice, but after Qing Shi made a move on it, the spirit-gathering formation became a spirit-eating formation.Although it will speed up the gathering speed of aura at the beginning, making people who practice on it feel that their practice speed is greatly accelerated, but after a long time, the abnormal and violent aura will start to damage the practitioner's body, and eventually the meridians will be damaged , the evil result of not advancing but retreating.

——I thought it would take another ten years or so to see results, but it seems that She Ji has spent enough time practicing here!

——If you really want to focus so much on cultivation, why do you need to be the master of this Laoshizi Peak!

While dismantling the materials that shouldn't exist on the spirit-gathering array, Qingshi slandered viciously.

In Xiantrumen, there are many important positions such as head, peak master, and hall master, which will greatly affect the practice time and speed of the incumbent.Golden core monks who are idle or unemployed can retreat and practice painstakingly at any time, but the head, peak master, and hall master can't do it every day if they get up late every day, so they can only accumulate cultivation in their busy schedule.

However, the resources that can be obtained by holding an important position are beyond the reach of the Golden Core cultivators who are idlers. Needless to say, the generous support in the sect, each peak and each church has its own unique resources, and these resources are almost all provided by the peak master, hall master, etc. The masters are in control, except for the part that is routinely paid to the sect, almost all the rest can be disposed of by the peak masters and hall masters.For example, the second peak can be called a panacea that can be made casually, and panacea can be eaten casually.

All in all, you can’t have both fish and bear’s paws. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Whether fish is more delicious or bear’s paws are more valuable depends on personal choice.

Qingshi quickly restored the spirit-gathering array to its original appearance, put away the inconspicuous spirit beads that had been hidden in the key places, and carefully put the futon back to its original position. After careful inspection, Get up and leave the apse.
