Ying Xuanyang looked at the floating cloud map, and then his eyes fell on the table. He sat down slowly, and denied, "I don't have a clue about either of these two people. You didn't tell me anything. I'm still in bed right now." The palace forgot to eat and sleep to consult classics."

"There is not much time left until Changxi Sword is unsealed. It has been 300 years since the Nightmare Demon Lord was sealed. If you hadn't agreed to my invitation to come out of the mountain and enter the world, what would have happened to Silent Shadow Capital for 300 years?" Mu Lin Jiang didn't ask any more questions, and spoke casually as if reminiscing about the past, "Ying Xuanyang, I believe that with you in Lone Night Palace, no matter where I am, I can feel at ease."

"Why did you suddenly bring up the old things again?" Ying Xuanyang looked sad for a moment, and then asked nervously, "Is your injury..."

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Mu Linjiang lowered his eyes and sighed deeply, "It's just a feeling, we are friends."

"Naturally." Ying Xuanyang replied decisively, "What's the matter with you today, have you been drinking?"

"Maybe." Mu Linjiang said ambiguously.

Ying Xuanyang frowned very puzzled, the study door rang twice, he raised his head and said, "Come in."

"Hall Master, this is the dossier you want... sorry, did I disturb you?" Shi Xiaomei held a stack of old bamboo slips that were not light in weight, seeing the gray clouds floating on Ying Xuanyang's desk, she quickly lowered her voice .

"It's the palace lord." Ying Xuanyang told her not to worry, his expression eased, and he said with a smile, "I don't know how much I drank, maybe I didn't order peanuts."

Shi Xiaomei suppressed a smile, and carried the bamboo slips to the vacant bookshelf bit by bit. She couldn't reach the highest level, so she had to take out a low stool and step on Fen's toes.

"Anyway, I won't delay your meal. What about Xiao Zhou, is he okay?" Ying Xuanyang asked again.

Ye Yunzhou wiped his mouth, got up and walked to Mu Linjiang, and said hello to Ying Xuanyang: "Thank you, Lord Ying, for your concern. I definitely didn't mean to deceive the Lord, and I will apologize to you when I go back."

"I understand, it must have been instigated by the master of the palace to listen to those gossips all day long in the palace of lonely nights, which made you wronged..." Ying Xuanyang felt aggrieved on behalf of Ye Yunzhou, and was suddenly startled halfway, "Are you still coming to the palace of lonely nights? I thought you were going back to Jingweimen."

"I have the opportunity to travel and study in Silent City, how could I refuse." Ye Yunzhou showed a modest smile, "The Palace Master is a good person, and I admire him very much."

Mu Linjiang, who was drinking tea at the side, choked and moved out of Yuntu silently.

Ying Xuanyang nodded in agreement: "There are not many people who can say that now."

Ye Yunzhou thought for a while and asked: "By the way, Hall Master Qiao was possessed by ghosts. I don't know when it started. You played with her before, did you find anything wrong with her?"

"This..." Ying Xuanyang was quite distressed, "I actually don't know her well, so I dare not draw conclusions rashly."

Ye Yunzhou was thoughtful, at this moment there was a sudden exclamation from the opposite side of Yuntu, and then something fell to the ground, and Ying Xuanyang stood up quickly, swiping his sleeves to sweep away a soft spiritual force.

Ye Yunzhou asked: "What happened?"

"Miss Shi fell down." Ying Xuanyang explained, "Yuntu will take it away first, and we will talk about it when we have something to do."

Shi Xiaomei, who was arranging the bookshelves, slipped and stepped on the ground, and the bamboo slips that were placed on the top floor were swept away by her fingers, and fell to the ground with her.

"Is it okay?" Ying Xuanyang hurried over to care, "If you can't reach it, you can use your spiritual power to send it up, and you don't need to climb up and down."

"I'm fine. I'm afraid that if I can't control my spiritual power, I might damage these bamboo slips." Shi Xiaomei sat with a few bamboo slips in her arms, and said shyly, "Fortunately, I caught them and didn't fall apart."

"If it's broken, just fix it. I'm proficient in refining weapons, just let me show off my expertise." Ying Xuanyang picked up the stool and joked, looked at Shi Xiaomei once, and was suddenly taken aback.

"You're joking again... Is there something wrong with me?" Seeing Ying Xuanyang staring at her, Shi Xiaomei couldn't help but put down the bamboo slips and touched her face. After confirming whether he was injured, he pinched his hand and condensed a water mirror, only to find that there was a wound half a finger long on the right side of his face.

Ying Xuanyang looked at Shi Xiaomei, as if he was looking at the void behind her, his eyes gradually filled with heavy sorrow, and his sighs were involuntarily mixed with memories.

"Hall Master?" Shi Xiaomei was taken aback, "I'm fine! It's just a small scratch, and it won't be visible after a little treatment."

"You are a woman, there is no woman in the world who doesn't care about her appearance." Ying Xuanyang said in a sad tone.

"It would be a lie to say that I don't care about it at all, but I'm already dead. If you think about it carefully, compared to being rotten, it looks pretty good now." Shi Xiaomei was very optimistic.

Ying Xuanyang lowered his head and laughed, and said helplessly: "You are very similar to my disciple. It has been 300 years. I think of her very easily recently."

He suddenly recalled the past long ago, when that kind and cheerful girl was still calling him Master one after another in a clear voice, often as short as ten days and a half months, and as long as a year or two, no one was caught.

Ying Xuanyang had no choice but to laugh at himself, this is the way of heaven and good reincarnation, when he was not working in the Lonely Night Palace, he also left his little apprentice to look after the house, and went out to visit the mountains and rivers by himself.

This time, his apprentice went out for more than three months, and only sent back a message, saying that he had found a base of an evil sect using people to refine poisons. Ying Xuanyang told her not to act rashly and go deep, but there was no news after that.

Ying Xuanyang believed in his apprentice's ability, but he felt uneasy directly on his face, and the corners of his mouth were blistered. Mu Linjiang had never seen a master with spiritual power be so anxious, so he simply asked him to lead people around the city In the mountains, dig three feet and search in detail.

Before Ying Xuanyang could rummage through the mountains, his disciples came out first. The girl was wearing a veil and was soaked in blood, protecting several mortals while fighting and retreating. Child.

Ying Xuanyang brought the responders to help in time to resettle the captured civilians. The girl took a breath and asked him embarrassingly: "Master, why did you come here? With such a big fanfare, the Heyin faction just joined us. Wan If there is a misunderstanding, it will make people think that the Xiaoxiao sect will be suppressed after the Silent Night Palace has been surrendered, I am afraid that it will lose the hearts of the Silent Night Palace."

"My apprentice is in danger, can I still manage so much?" Ying Xuanyang said in a stern tone, "Nonsense! I don't know the seriousness! Knowing that the other party is good at using poison, you should act more cautiously and explain the situation. If you are reckless against the enemy, what if you are poisoned and plotted?"

The girl tugged at the veil, her eyes wandered, she coughed dryly with her hands behind her back, "I originally wanted to do what Master said, but when I was monitoring them, they were about to drug a mother and child. I can't save people who want me to give up, but I can't do it."

"You...! With your personality, you will suffer a lot sooner or later." Ying Xuanyang flicked his sleeves angrily, "Go back and recuperate well, and you are not allowed to go out for three years."

"Master!" The girl protested dissatisfiedly, then shook Ying Xuanyang's arm, and acted coquettishly in a soft tone, "Good master, don't be so heartless, three months will do."

"I will never allow you to bargain this time." Ying Xuanyang withdrew his hand and snorted coldly.

The girl stared at him angrily, Ying Xuanyang turned a blind eye to him, but the wind lifted a corner of the girl's veil, and she quickly stretched out her hand to hold it down.

Ying Xuanyang asked suspiciously: "Speaking of which, what are you wearing it for? It's not a magic weapon for defense. Don't you think it's in the way?"

"Ah, this is a face covering that is popular recently, and it emphasizes hazy beauty." The girl replied solemnly.

Ying Xuanyang didn't believe it, and took advantage of her unpreparedness, he reached out and took off the black cloth that wasn't hazy at all.

Then he saw a rotten wound on the right cheek of the girl with bright eyes and white teeth. The edge was blackened, obviously poisoned.

"Master." The girl lowered her head and said lazily, "I'm sorry, I was afraid you would get angry when you saw it. Although you didn't deal with it in time, there are many doctors in the Jixiao Palace Medical Department, so the treatment won't be too scary."

Ying Xuanyang was stunned for a while, feeling that he was really angry, or sad, maybe it was a more complicated and sour emotion. It was the first time he had seen his big apprentice make himself into such a frightening appearance since he was a child, and he even started to Afraid that one day his apprentice will never come back.

He wanted to comfort him, but she came to comfort him first, and Ying Xuanyang's voice trembled, almost crying: "...Don't worry, I will try every means to make you recover."

"Master, don't be so serious." The girl said in relief, "The injury left for saving someone should be regarded as an honor. Compared with melting my whole face, it is already good that Master can recognize me now. You can put a flower to cover the scars, or does the master think I'm ugly?"

"How could it be?" Ying Xuanyang quickly denied it, and forced a smile, "Isn't there a saying, a mother doesn't think her son is ugly."

"Hey, it's the other way around." The girl was speechless, she reached out and pushed Ying Xuanyang's shoulder to make him turn around, "Let's go, let's go back first, don't look at it, it hurts your eyes."

……

Shi Xiaomei also heard that Ying Xuanyang once had an apprentice, but unfortunately she passed away a long time ago. She pursed her lips and asked tentatively: "Is it Jun Chanyi, senior Jun?"

"Well, I only accepted her as an apprentice." Ying Xuanyang said softly, "Come out for a walk with me."

The cold wind is still blowing in Xiahuangling, and it is getting late. On the road from Suxiao Palace to Full Moon Garden, there are only maids and guards on duty at night. The moment you step into Full Moon Garden, it seems to be walking directly from winter to late spring. The eyes are filled with greenery and fireflies Fire and starlight fluttered and intertwined on the winding stone road.

Shi Xiaomei followed Ying Xuanyang to the old tree in the center of the garden, occasionally a few silvery white petals were blown up by the wind, she saw Ying Xuanyang raised his hand to press on the tree, those petals fell gently on his shoulders, like a field of spring snow.

"This tree was planted by Chanyi himself when he was young. It was the longest time I went out, and I didn't go back until ten years ago. It has already covered the sky and the sun, and Chanyi made me almost dare not recognize each other... What am I going to do? How much time was missed." Ying Xuanyang said with a wry smile: "To this day, I still wonder whether it was the Nightmare Lord who killed her, or my decision killed her."

Shi Xiaomei didn't know how to comfort her, she was still too young, and Ying Xuanyang had spent countless long years, the ancient tree in front of her seemed solid, but the tentacles were cracked and withered, she could only stand silently aside, when A quiet silhouette.

In Lingya City, Ye Yunzhou and Mu Linjiang were sitting opposite each other drinking.

Maybe it was Ying Xuanyang's joke that made Mu Linjiang want to drink, but Ye Yunzhou laughed at him and only poured him half a glass.

"Do you think what Ying Xuanyang said is true?" Mu Linjiang asked, shaking his wine glass.

Ye Yunzhou shook his head: "It doesn't look like it's fake, but who knows, if a liar is spotted by just a few words of conversation, that would be a failure."

Mu Linjiang leaned on the back of the chair and raised his head, his eyes fell on Ye Yunzhou's lips moistened with wine, that slightly raised mouth had a cute curve that made people feel good, but he spit out some specious words.

"You really care about Ying Xuanyang so much?" Ye Yunzhou got up holding the wine glass, walked behind Mu Linjiang, inserted his fingers into Mu Linjiang's hanging long hair, and slid it down little by little.

"I was in a good mood today. I shouldn't have accepted this voice transmission." Mu Linjiang regretted, "Do you want to know the origin of Chunjiang Tingyue?"

"Since you want to talk, then I'm all ears." Ye Yunzhou put his elbows on the back of the chair, tilted his head to look at him with his chin in his hand, Mu Linjiang sank, his head resting on Ye Yunzhou's arm, defenseless I closed my eyes.

Theoretically speaking, a magician does not need weapons, but it is more convenient to have a few magic weapons. It is not that Mu Linjiang is arrogant and disdains to use external force, but he has never had a suitable and convenient magic weapon.

He was sitting by the pond under the fence, with an ordinary silk umbrella leaning on his shoulder, and intermittently glanced at the fishing rod and line.

Yin Si stood behind him holding his sword motionless, Mu Linjiang suddenly hummed dissatisfied: "Ying Xuanyang and that boy are already a quarter of an hour late, if there are fish in this pond, they will all be out of the pot and put on the plate by now. "

Yin Si didn't answer, still like an ice sculpture, Mu Linjiang got up holding an umbrella, thought for a while and there was no outsider here, so he put away the silk umbrella.

Tonight, the full moon is just full, and the bright silver light spreads into the yard. The mountains and forests around the wooden house are already a large area of ​​fresh green.

There is a small stove in the middle of the yard. It is very convenient to make tea, warm wine and eat hot pot, and it can also keep warm. Mu Linjiang snapped his fingers to light the stove, moved the square stool to the side of the stove and sat down: "Yin Si, help I'll bring two chairs."

Yin Si's figure disappeared without a sound, and after a while, he picked up two chairs and placed them by the fire, and stood back behind Mu Linjiang.

Mu Linjiang was silent for a while, then turned around and said, "The 'two hands' I said were false fingers, not just for Ying Xuanyang, how long are you going to stand?"

"This subordinate is your sword guard." Yin Si replied with bowed head.

"... Whatever you want." Mu Linjiang turned his head angrily.

When he put the kettle on the stove, Ying Xuanyang and Xiao Chuan arrived late.

Ying Xuanyang went straight to the stove and rubbed his hands: "Brother Mu, I wonder if it's too remote to set up the stronghold here, and there are a bunch of strange formations. To be honest, I almost lost my way even with the blueprints."

Mu Linjiang sneered: "Young Master Xiao is so smart, a few formations should not be difficult for him."

Xiao Chuan sat down opposite Mu Linjiang leisurely, crossed his legs and said calmly: "How could I do something that easily ruined Mr. Mu's formation and made you lose face."

"Okay, can you stop choking when we meet?" Ying Xuanyang smoothed things over, "Young Master Xiao generously donated the Changxi sword, the first thing to do now is to research a new set of formations to minimize the loss... ...I still think we should use the special earth energy of Qinglei Mountain, I have lived there for 200 years, and I know exactly how powerful it is."

"The force of nature is the most difficult to control. If there is a slight error, your home will be gone." Mu Linjiang moved his finger, and drew a string of sparks from the furnace, and the flickering red dots formed a series of connected arrays in his hands. "Roughly speaking, there is no problem with this arrangement, but who will be responsible for the balance formation and the transformation of the earth's energy? This is a position that is close to death."

"Yuehuangcheng, Tianshuguan, Lanjiang faction, they all have capable people in the art formation." Ying Xuanyang frowned, "When you see the credit, you go after it, but when you meet the sacrifice, you avoid it, you are too indulgent. "

"It's not just about cherishing their lives for them. If they are incapable of taking on this important task, then the sacrifice is not a sacrifice, but a death in vain." Mu Linjiang fiddled with the mid-air formation map, "Take your time, delay the urgent matter."

Ying Xuanyang was helpless, he and Mu Linjiang talked about the formation map, Xiao Chuan was a swordsman, and couldn't get in the way, so he pushed Mu Linjiang's kettle aside and put the wine on the table.

Xiao Chuan slowly drank a pot, and the discussion between Mu Linjiang and Ying Xuanyang came to an end. The air was covered with colorful and gorgeous lines and rune calculations, making people dazzled, as if fireworks were exploding around him.

"By the way, there is something I want to give you. I have a little inspiration. Let's go to the study to calculate it first." Ying Xuanyang clapped his hands to retract the circle of light in half of the sky, and took out a long and flat wooden box from the Qiankun bag. Flicking his sleeves, he scattered the rest, and took the wooden box with a puzzled expression on his face.

Ying Xuanyang entered the room without waiting for him to open it, Xiao Chuan was extremely bored, so he came over to see what Ying Xuanyang had sent.

Mu Linjiang unlocked the lock, took out the items in the box, and slowly pulled the flannelette away, only to find a long umbrella with a delicate surface that was not silk or paper, and it was as calm as the night sky in dark blue with tiny specks of light A mist of smoke and soot flows over the umbrella, but is untouchable.

Mu Linjiang was deeply surprised. He opened the umbrella, and the weight was suitable. Xiao Chuan got under the umbrella curiously, knocked on the slender golden ribs, and praised: "This is a good material for casting thin swords and light swords. Even if it is melted into an umbrella bone, it can withstand swords and slashes, and it is a good shield without spiritual power, let me see...he is very good to you."

"What's your tone?" Mu Linjiang glanced at him, but let Xiao Chuan snatch the handle of the umbrella.

"Mu Linjiang, you should have discovered that Ying Xuanyang doesn't care whether those people live or die. If they can exchange their lives for a large formation to destroy the Nightmare Demon Lord, he will definitely do so." Xiao Chuan raised his head. He held up the umbrella and turned around, feeling like the galaxy was flowing for him, he smiled happily, "Why should Ying Xuanyang restrain himself? How long can he restrain himself?"

"What do you want to say?" Mu Linjiang gradually became impatient.

"It's nothing, don't be nervous, Mr. Mu." Xiao Chuan handed him the umbrella back, "How many of these people around you are really here because of you?"

Mu Linjiang snorted coldly and said nothing, Xiao Chuan seemed to have a special liking for this umbrella, his eyes never left, he changed the subject and asked: "Such a high-grade magic weapon should be given a name, have you thought about it yet?"

Mu Linjiang thought in his heart that how could I think of a name for a high-grade magic weapon while being angry so quickly, and he clicked his tongue: "Master Xiao has a good idea?"

Xiao Chuan didn't mind the barbed words, looked around for a moment, and suggested, "How about calling it 'Chunjiang Tingyue'?"
