old grace

Xie Qinghe asked to check the documents from the outer sect in the past 20 years. He said it was a clerical work, but in fact it was not just a matter of looking through the archived letters.

Under the rule of Shangguan Shiyi, the Hanjiang Sword Sect seldom got involved in Jianghu affairs, and was mainly responsible for the safety of the world.Similar to the matter of sealing demons along the river, the Hanjiang Sword Sect sends out elites from outside sects to routinely suppress them every year.The world's waters are vast, and the Hanjiang Sword Sect may not be able to take care of everything.At this time, there are old sects with the Hanjiang Sword Sect in various places. When encountering unsolvable troubles, they will write to the Hanjiang Sword Sect for help.

Xie Qinghe swallowed the group of demons 22 years ago. After the magic cave disappeared, the monsters along the waters of the river also disappeared.

However, there are still some weird things happening all over the world. When each faction encounters problems that cannot be dealt with, they will still send a letter to the Hanjiang Sword Sect explaining the situation, and the Hanjiang Sword Sect will send outer disciples to take charge of the investigation according to the situation.

It was this part of the correspondence that Fu Chuan came to the outer door to check.

Friends from all over the world sent letters asking for help, and it was inevitable that there were exaggerations, and the writing was mysterious and unpredictable, and ghosts and demons flew around.Another one, it is very likely that there was something involving ghosts and demons at the beginning, and the outer disciples had shallow knowledge and couldn't see it clearly, so they treated it as other incidents and dealt with it at will.

Therefore, when Fu Chuan checked the correspondence documents, he had to invite the disciples who were in charge of going out to perform duties, and asked and checked them one by one to judge whether there was anything suspicious.The rest of the outer disciples can help with the work on the paperwork, and the review of the old affairs depends on meticulous work, and he can't rest assured that he will be handed over to anyone. He has been conducting one-on-one review and questioning in Qingquanxi for two days and one night. Eyes reddish.

When Shi Qin came in, Fu Chuan had just settled an old case in Wuxing, and Li Qian cooked him a bowl of casserole noodles and served it to him.

"Cough..." Fu Chuan almost choked.

No one knew about Shi Qin being escorted back to the Star Observatory by Yun Chao for trial, all the disciples from the outer sect bowed and saluted Shi Qin one after another.

Shi Qin walked in as usual, and Li Qian greeted him: "Have you eaten yet? There is a casserole soup boiling on the stove, and the noodles are ready to be served in no time. How about a pot of pork belly and chicken noodle soup?"

Shi Qin chuckled and said, "I've eaten." Then he said to Fu Chuanchuan, "Little Senior Brother, Senior Senior Brother, please go back to the Star Observatory, I have something to tell you."

Fu Chuan could already see that Shi Qin was refreshed and unscathed. The night before yesterday, when he saw his dying body covered in rotten flesh, it seemed that he had never existed—with Xie Qinghe and Yun Chao staring at him, no matter how capable Shi Qin was, Can't get out.Now that he ran out, Xie Qinghe must have let it out—he didn't care about eating noodles, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and immediately got up: "I'll go right away."

Shi Qin walked to his desk, picked up the files he hadn't finished processing, and looked at Fu Chuan asking for instructions.

Seeing the jade talisman hanging around his waist, Fu Chuan nodded, "Go ahead and ask."

In the jade talisman there is the sword energy belonging to the elder brother, and there is also a sword energy of the same root and origin in the Fuchuan Zifu, how can one not feel it?

Li Qian sighed: "You just eat one more bite, can the Immortal Elder blame you?"

Fu Chuan had already gone far away, he laughed and said, "I'll go to the Observatory to eat."

The disciples of the outer sect who were tidying up the documents in the yard all looked at each other in blank dismay.The senior elder brother who is in charge of the sect has always been imposing, making people afraid to get close to him, and there is not a small age gap between the younger senior brother and the two of them would never get along at all.Why is the little brother so happy every time he mentions going to the Star Observatory?It's so strange.

Fu Chuan was running towards the observatory, while accumulating true energy in the acupoints of both eyes, soothing the boiled red blood one by one.

He stayed up for two days and nights, and Xie Qinghe must have known that he had been busy for two days and nights, but if Xie Qinghe saw his red eyes, he would definitely have to take another look.Fu Chuan packed himself up on the road, and when he returned to the observatory, he was a radiant junior again.

"Eldest brother, I'm back." Fu Chuan went straight into the door and into the study, "What do you need from me?"

Xie Qinghe also washed and changed his clothes, looking refreshed.He handed the written runes to Fu Chuan and said, "This is a magic talisman to attract ghosts and evil thoughts. I have written all the formulas, qi lines, and thoughts used when drawing the talisman. First, you call the deacons of the outer sect. , elders, and elite disciples, teach them one by one. Send letters to Zizhu Villa, Yunhuang, Pangu Villa and other friends, asking them to send elite disciples to Hanshan to worship and receive talismans."

While listening to him, Fu Chuan lowered his head to look at the content on the paper, traced it with his fingertips in the void, and there was wind and thunder.

In an instant, he learned the paper talisman, and replied: "Yes, I will do it immediately."

As soon as the words fell, Xie Qinghe hugged him from behind, lowered his head and rubbed his face, and said, "It's not too late to have a cup of tea."

In the last enchanted world, the older the two were, the more they could not bear to be separated, they lived, sat and slept together, and rarely separated.Not only Xie Qinghe was not used to it, but Fu Chuan was not used to it when they were enjoying the young and healthy each other after being out of the devil.

Xie Qinghe didn't think too much about it, made some tea, sat with Fu Chuan, and explained what he had discovered in the past two days.

Fu Chuan didn't expect that there would be so much inside information. He didn't ask about the ghosts for the time being. He asked Shi Qin first: "Eldest brother, what you mean is that he has got rid of the evil thoughts in his mind now, so there shouldn't be any problems?"

"Based on common sense, there is no problem. However, is it normal to be possessed by demons? Rather than betting on other people's character and betting on the death of fierce demons, you should really believe in yourself." Xie Qinghe handed the remaining two jade talismans to Fu Chuan, "You take one, and give Chen Yiwei another one."

Fu Chuan put the jade talisman into his bosom, and asked, "Brother Nanfeng, do you want to explain?"

"I will make a few more jade talismans in these two days. I will explain to the third junior brother, you just mind what you have in hand." Xie Qinghe said.

Fu Chuan nodded, his stomach suddenly growled twice.

Xie Qinghe hurriedly asked Yun Chao to bring him food: "No matter how successful you are in your studies and refuse to sleep, you still have to eat."

Fu Chuan ate half a drawer of steamed buns next to him, and Xie Qinghe accompanied him, peeling peanuts and pouring tea for him. After eating for nearly half an hour, Fu Chuan left reluctantly.

After sending Fu Chuan away, Xie Qinghe began to refine jade talismans.

Jade talismans are more similar to magic treasures, and their effects are not much stronger than paper talismans. The main reason is that they can be used many times and are more durable.

It's just that the refining of the jade talisman requires the moss on the tree of reincarnation and the clear soul power obtained by being enchanted. The moss is barely enough, but Xie Qinghe doesn't have much soul power to store—although he has many enchanted souls, the clear soul power he obtained fills up the mystery. Chi, it's not easy to dismantle it right now.

Of course he was too embarrassed to ask the little fat girl for a loan.Xie Qinghe saw the little girl carrying the little dustpan back and forth to count the remaining soul beads, and the little fat girl was very reluctant to part with it.Borrow, of course you can borrow it.But how could Xie Qinghe have the heart to bully the little girl?

As a last resort, Xie Qinghe entered the space again, and asked the little fat girl to pick some vicious demons, and beheaded immediately after falling into the demons.

This simple acquisition of clear soul power, without having entered the magic world alone to start another life, is not a violation of his promise to Fu Chuan.

After obtaining the nine pieces of clear soul power, Xie Qinghe distributed half of it to the little fat girl as usual.

The little chubby girl was so happy that she took out the small dustpan, sat under the reincarnation tree and squeezed happily, squeezing her soul power into square pieces.

Only then did Xie Qinghe realize that her square soul orb needed three or four clear soul powers to fill it.Bewitched nine times today, she was given the clear soul power of nearly five demons in total, but in the end she only squeezed out a square soul orb.No wonder the little fat girl felt distressed.

Xie Qinghe sat in the space for a while longer, and asked the little fat girl: "The demon cultivator has been extinct in the world for a long time, and no one knows how to find the traces of the demon cultivator. What can Junior Sister Wen do?"

The little chubby girl uttered an uh, looked back at the tree of reincarnation, and then at Xie Qinghe.

"Can the reincarnation tree recognize demon cultivators?" Xie Qinghe asked.

Before the little chubby girl could speak, a branch of the not very dense and tall reincarnation tree suddenly clicked, and a branch fell out.When the branch first fell, it looked like a rough branch, but soon after it touched the soil, it shed its branches and leaves, and turned into an old dead wood.

The little chubby girl happily ran over to pick it up, and handed it to Xie Qinghe: "Elder brother, you can instruct the demon cultivator by carrying it on your body." Then she told Xie Qinghe, "This must not be removed, it is The branches of the reincarnation tree will die if they are removed, and they cannot be used separately. If they are separated, they will die, and they will be useless if they are dead."

Xie Qinghe walked to the reincarnation tree, and looked at the crooked-neck tree for a long time: "Is it different from the tree in the space of the junior brother?"

"Naturally it's different. The Everlasting Grass over there is in charge, and this is Brother Samsara Tree's territory." The little fat girl was full of pride.

When the big yin and yang talisman was chopped off, Xie Qinghe had already figured it out. His [Xie Qinghe Jian] was controlled by the reincarnation tree, and Fu Chuan's [Ye Qingxujian] was governed by the longevity grass.The layout of the two spaces is the same, but the tree in the Patriarch's space is an ordinary spiritual tree, which has no form, no consciousness, and is much lower than the longevity grass.

Thinking of this, Xie Qinghe suddenly asked the little fat girl: "You don't like the big yin-yang talisman, and you don't get along with it because you are worried that it will reveal the news of your transformation?" He pointed to the sky.

The little fat girl shook her head fiercely, looked at Xie Qinghe with serious eyes: "It's a bad thing!"

Xie Qinghe wanted to ask one more question, but the little fat girl refused to say more.

Xie Qinghe couldn't help wondering, what was the "upper" who left the Nine-turn Wenlan Seal and the Great Yin-Yang Talisman behind?

According to the little fat girl, the idea of ​​"above" should not be too simple.However, for so many years, except for Jiuzhuan Wenlanyin who became a chubby girl after taking a lot of love, Xie Qinghe didn't feel any "destiny" urging him to do something.

——The patriarchs are thundering and throwing magic weapons, tossing loneliness?

■

In the following days, Xie Qinghe refined a batch of jade talismans and distributed them to the elites of all sects.

After he refined the jade talisman, he didn't have much to do.Knowing that Fu Chuan is busy at the outer gate, he is not easy to help.

For a sect as big as the Hanjiang Sword Sect, it is difficult for anyone to overstep their position and seek power.No matter how busy Fu Chuan was, Xie Qinghe couldn't come to do it for him in person - the level of response was different.If Xie Qinghe all ran to Qingquanxi to look up the documents on file, it showed that this matter was serious and urgent, and the atmosphere of the entire Hanjiang Sword Sect would never be as relaxed and peaceful as it is now.

Therefore, Xie Qinghe could only help draw paper talismans in batches at the star observatory, and sent Yun Chao to Qingquanxi to take a look occasionally.

"It's not bad."

Yun Chao ran back to report to Xie Qinghe: "In the past two years, everyone has been thinking about the new law. They want to establish a foundation and enter the inner sect as soon as possible. No one wants to travel. The little master is considerate and has deliberately reduced the external affairs. If it is not necessary, he will not send out much. Elite disciples serve."

"This can be regarded as a crooked attack. There are not many people at the foot of the mountain, and most people are staying at home to practice."

"The little master wants to check the correspondence documents over the years, question the disciples who were out on duty at that time, and be there on call. If they want them to come to learn new ghost way talismans immediately, just follow the rules of last year's teaching and practice. Pass on the practice, and the results will be extremely fast.”

"It's the sects that Zizhu Villa and Yunhuang have made good friends with, and they didn't come so quickly."

"I haven't come back to rest for several days." Xie Qinghe couldn't help but miss him a little, "Is he sleeping down there?"

Yun Chao couldn't say that Fu Chuan was so busy that he didn't sleep at all, so he gave Xie Qinghe an idea: "Or, please ask the little master to come back?"

Xie Qinghe picked up the white pieces in the chess basket and put them down again, but finally shook his head: "I'm busy. No need."

When he used to be in charge of the general affairs of the outer sect as a disciple of the head sect, he was too busy to close his eyes for ten days and nights.No matter how much you love the little junior brother, you can't really treat the little junior brother as a delicate flower in a pot.

After a while, Xie Qinghe handed over the written [-] paper talismans to Yun Chao, and also gave him a bottle of Yangxin Pill.

"Send it to Junior Brother."

"It's fine if he doesn't ask. If you ask me what I have told you, tell him that the documents accumulated over the years don't have to be forced to be true, just write them down if you have doubts, and it will be faster to visit in person in the future. But the teaching of the talisman in the door must be arranged quickly. good."

Yun Chao remembered them one by one, and didn't bother to help Fu Chuan find out the key points. After the things were delivered, he relayed what Xie Qinghe had said.

Fu Chuan was discussing suspicious reports in the past three years with Shi Qin and Chen Yiwei. Yun Chao dragged him into the inner room and stuffed a bag of things. He didn't need Yun Chao's help to draw the key points. Xie Qinghe made it very clear—— Make arrangements for the outer school to learn the ghost way talisman, and make a list of other things, and the big brother will accompany you to visit in person.

Previously, Xie Qinghe asked Fu Chuan to do a copy investigation because there was no ghost way talisman at that time, and a preliminary screening was needed.

Now that the ghost way talisman technique has matured, and the preliminary screening has ended, it is entirely possible to send elite disciples from the outer sect who have practiced well and are proficient in talisman techniques to investigate on the spot in several groups.There is no need to slam on the correspondence documents.

Of course, in these words, there is also the most important sentence of love——

Long time no see, miss you.

Fu Chuan distributed the ghost Taoist talisman drawn by Xie Qinghe himself among the outer houses, and told them to practice the talisman carefully.On the other hand, he gave Chen Yiwei and Shi Qin, who had been with them for several days, a vacation, copied a help list with suspicious points, and returned to the observatory before dark.

While eating, the two discussed the field visit.

"At the beginning, I made a little distinction. These three places are the most suspicious. There are different distress letters before and after, and the statements are quite unified."

What Fu Chuan read at the outer door were all messy and clueless correspondence documents, and the purpose of sorting them out for Xie Qinghe was a refreshing booklet, with an overview of the events at the front, the time, place, and similarities of each event.Detailed descriptions follow.

The entire booklet is clearly written, and the content is even more detailed and appropriate when you flip through it, so you can find everything you want to know.

Xie Qinghe lowered his head to look, Fu Chuan knew what he was looking at with a glance, and casually recounted: "A young scholar disappeared every three or two years near the city of Xun. There is a beautiful daughter who is going to give birth to recruit a husband. This young scholar is either greedy for fine clothes and fine food, or for nephrite jade and fragrance, so he stays in the mansion in the mountains and becomes the husband of a rich girl. The luxurious mansion is gone, the rich father-in-law is gone, the beautiful wife is gone, and there are only a few decayed wooden houses left."

Xie Qinghe's reading speed was very fast. When Fu Chuan was speaking, he hummed and read all the previous and subsequent events.

One or two scholars said that they had run into ghosts, but for sixteen or seventeen years, as many as six people insisted on the same rhetoric, which is indeed strange.The Hanjiang Sword Sect also sent outer disciples to investigate, and they said that the place was clean and there was no trace of evil spirits, and finally nothing happened.

——The scholar who said that he had bumped into a ghost had nothing to lose, he was in good health, he ate well, and he didn't have any sequelae of bumping into a ghost.

"Let's go to Xun City first." Xie Qinghe said.

Fu Chuan still remembered what Xie Qinghe told Yun Chao to tell, and asked, "Will senior brother go with me?"

"Well. The situation is not clear now, so it's not easy for disciples to get involved in danger. You and I will go first to find out the truth." Xie Qinghe folded the booklet and put it aside, picked up a chopstick for Fu Chuan, and touched his face Ear, "Is everything in hand done? When can I leave?"

"Senior Brother Hu and Senior Brother Bai have already learned the talisman. With their leadership and supervision, they will soon spread it to the outside world. I am just worried that we are leaving at this time, and Senior Sister Bai and Senior Brother Yuan just come to worship the talisman. , didn’t you miss it?” Fu said.

He was referring to Bai Ruyi from Zizhu Villa and Yuan Yanshan from Pangu Villa.

The letter has already been handed out, counting the days, the guests who are relatively close will be at the door in a few days.

Xie Qinghe couldn't help laughing, and asked: "Did you forget that Master is still in the Feixian Cottage?"

Fu Chuan has long been used to Shangguan Shiyi retreating in the Feixian Caolu and not caring about world affairs, so he came to his senses only after hearing the words.Although Xie Qinghe handled this matter as lightly as possible, it involved demons after all--Master would not sit idly by.The two of them were working outside, and Shangguan Shiyi had to go out to sit in town.

"It's great that Master is here." Fu Zhenzhen sincerely rushed to the fairy grass cottage to bow.

Xie Qinghe scooped up half a bowl of soup for him, and urged: "Eat and go to bed early. Haven't closed your eyes for a few days?"

Fu Chuan blinked and hinted.

Xie Qinghe was also a little moved, and said: "Then go to bed earlier."

Fu Chuan cleaned up the rice in the bowl in two or three mouthfuls, helped Yun Chao clean up the kitchen, and sent Yun Chao out of the house. While rinsing his mouth and brushing his teeth, he urged Xie Qinghe: "Go to bed right now! Eldest brother, do you wash your hands?" No? I'll scoop up water for you, so I won't take a bath today!"

Xie Qinghe: "..." As for being so impatient?
