Sword Intent Lingqiu

The sandalwood is curling up, and the thin green smoke only floats up for a moment, and then disappears into the air.The dark and dark room without the light of day looked very gloomy and cold. I wonder if it was because the incense was burned too heavily. Everything in front of me seemed to have a smoky gray color, making it look hazy.The man lying in front of him was dressed in a crisp white Wudang Taoist robe, his eyes were closed, and his hands were clasped on his abdomen. He seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and his lips were no longer tight. He looked far less serious than when he was sober.Other than a slight pale complexion, there was no abnormality at all.

"The separation between yin and yang is the principle of survival. There shouldn't be a reversal." Patriarch Lai Qu looked at the sleeping man with his eyes closed, and couldn't help but sighed deeply again. "I didn't expect that I would break it with my own hands after so many years of coming and going." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the four people with different expressions behind him, "You all go out."

Luo Xing'er nodded slightly to the patriarch, and then led the red-eyed Yun Wutian to go outside, and the latter's eyes seemed to be glued to the stone bed, turning his head three times a step.

Pepper moved back slightly, then stopped immediately, looked at the young master from the back of the patriarch, and then at Liu Xiang who was beside him with a serious face, hesitating to say something, which is not good As if speaking directly, he hesitated.

As soon as Liu Xiang thought about it, he understood what Chili was thinking, the corner of his mouth curled up, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.He took a step forward and approached the patriarch, and whispered in the patriarch's ear: "The young master's safety is of great importance, and the imperial capital is still worried after all... I am a disciple of Yunmeng's sect and also works for the imperial capital, can I keep my disciple to protect the Dharma? Disciple I swear that I will never reveal a word, please rest assured, Patriarch!"

Patriarch thought for a moment, then waved his sleeves to signal Liu Xiang to stay.Only then did Chili glance at Liu Xiang, as if pinning all his worries on the latter, he finally turned and left.

The heavy secret door was slowly opened from the outside, the hinges creaked so that the teeth were sore, and finally there was only a "bang", and it was closed tightly.Liu Xiang finally let go of the heart he was holding, and squeezed his fingers secretly to stabilize the expression on his face.

The patriarch who came and went no longer paid attention to the disciple behind him, and turned his attention back to the cold body in front of him.After that, he concentrated and calmed down, turned his left hand over his head and pinched the five fingers together, secretly urging the breeze to help the bell.The quaint lantern held in his right hand gradually glowed, driving away the darkness of the room, and the smoke from the calming incense seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, until finally he couldn't see his fingers.Only the faint green light remained, like a guiding light in the mist, getting brighter and brighter, and then it floated slowly from the hand of the standing lamp holder to the stone bed, as if being held up by an invisible hand, suspended In the air, the man's pale complexion was reflected faintly blue, very strange.

Although the Patriarch's body remained motionless, his brows were furrowed tightly, his face turned red and then white, beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and his white hair was wet.It seems to be wrestling with something invisible and invisible.A gust of wind came from somewhere in the small stone room, blowing the little light flickeringly and flickering on and off.

Patriarch seemed to be hit hard, and suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood, but as soon as his figure shook, he quickly backed away and stood still.At the same time, he bit the tip of his tongue, and made another tactic with his free right hand, using the mind method of Qinghe Yinmeng.At this time, when the two methods are used together, the practitioner will only feel a splitting headache, and the two qi are circulating in the body, only to feel that the eyes are dark and unable to see things, but the feeling of pulling is especially strong in the dark.

The patriarch, who was busy coming and going, naturally didn't notice that the disciple behind him who should have lowered his eyes and retreated, even the mist couldn't stop his scorching gaze, was staring at the kungfu man's fingers, not even daring to blink, For fear of missing any movement, her breathing almost stopped.

"Being in Taoyuan, my heart is attached to the world, my life is like a dream, like a spring breeze - get up!"

I saw the man's body on the stone bed, as if suddenly pulled up by the rope around his waist, flying three inches in the direction of the lantern, his head, neck, limbs and feet were slightly tilted back, and he was suspended.From the rotating and floating lamp, bright spots of light flew out one after another and gathered in one place, turning into green lines, piercing straight into the man's chest.I don't know how long this strange scene lasted, the light of the lamp gradually dimmed, and there was a muffled bang, mixed with the crisp sound of jade shattering, the man's body fell back to the stone platform, and the lantern in the air lost its support in an instant. Rapidly falling debris splashed to the ground.

Liu Xiang was also startled, his heartbeat almost missed a beat, and then there was a thud in his chest, his breathing was so short that he couldn't restrain it, his limbs were stiff, and he even trembled slightly.

The fog dissipated, the patriarch staggered a few steps, almost fell down, Liu Xiang saw something bad, quickly restrained his expression, stepped forward to support him, and helped him to sit down against the wall.There was a faint smell of blood in the room, and after the hoarse voice of the severely injured patriarch signaled his disciples to open the door, he closed his eyes and did not look up again.Just as Liu Xiang turned to open the door, a third breathing sound suddenly sounded from behind.

"Young master!" Before the stone door was fully opened, Pepper couldn't wait to squeeze in, rushing to the side of the stone platform in three steps at a time.

The man in white, who had just woken up from a dream, frowned slightly as if he couldn't bear the noise in his ears, and opened his eyes just now.The dream just now was too real and heavy. I don’t know whether it has been a few days, a few years or a few lifetimes. It has the meaning of "I don’t know what year it is". Turn to the person next to you.

Yun Wutian was sitting by the bed, clutching the man's sleeves in his hands, before he could speak, tears were already falling down, the tip of his nose was red, his eyes were blurred, "Brother Tian!" Then he couldn't say a word up.

"Young master... finally woke up!" Pepper would never have noticed how demeanor he was at this moment, the eight-foot man bent over and trembled, his voice choked up, "Great!"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Luo Xing'er was also quite excited, her eyes were a little sore, she couldn't help but turn her head and take a deep breath, desperately wanting to calm down.But he caught a glimpse of senior brother Liu Xiang standing aside blankly, neither approaching nor far away, the expression on his face was mixed with ecstasy and excitement, which seemed quite strange.Looking closely, he found that he was trembling all over for some reason, and could even hear the soft sound of teeth clinking.

"You guys, cough, cough." The man coughed twice.

Luo Xing'er turned her gaze when she heard the sound.

Yun Ditian moved his fingers, as if he was re-adapting to this body, and soon propped up his body on his elbows, and straightened up from the stone bed.He wanted to put on a serious face, but he couldn't show his face to the excited and tearful crowd in front of him.The man was silent for a long while, feeling quite uncomfortable for a while, not knowing what to say.

Luo Xing'er stood aside quietly, wondering if it was her own illusion, she even saw a trace of helplessness in this serious man.

The voice of the man who just woke up was still slightly hoarse, and after a long time of silence, he finally spoke: "You stupid bastards..." I don't know if Yun Ditian himself noticed that there was no usual rigid and serious expression on his face at this moment, and there was a hint of sternness in his words. With a smile, the corners of his mouth turned upwards, "Aren't you going to let even a dead person go? What's the big trouble, you have to dig me out again!"

Luo Xing'er burst out laughing "puchi", and suddenly felt much better.Chili seemed to be aware of his gaffe, wiped his face with his sleeves, straightened up and cupped his fists in a salute, "Congratulations, young master, for recovering!" Only Yun Wutian was still wiping away tears, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up , knowing that the appearance of crying and laughing must be very strange, so he covered his face with a tear-wiping veil, so as not to show his face in front of others.

Yun Ditian shook his head with a smile, turned and faced the direction of the Patriarch who came and went, "I haven't thanked the Patriarch for saving my life yet!" He said and got up and gave a deep salute.

"Oh, you really don't need to thank me for this matter, it's just... Forget it, let's talk about it later after you have a rest." The patriarch who came and went silently by the wall finally opened his eyes and stood up, pushing Luo Xing'er, who was about to come to help her, waved her hands and left.Chili wanted to say something more, but Luo Xing'er yanked her hard, and quietly pointed to the two remaining people behind her, signaling to the excited and expressionless "outsiders" to leave quickly.Chili shut his mouth knowingly, and hurried out the door together with Luo Xing'er and Liu Xiang as if suddenly realizing it.

The stone door closed behind him again.

At this time, everyone's mood is completely different from before.

"Haha Liu Xiang, let's go to drink to celebrate... hey, why are you leaving!" Before Chili called him, he hurried away alone, leaving Chili alone with an inexplicable face.

Luo Xing'er's mind was at ease because Senior Brother Yun had survived a desperate situation, and some trivial matters that had been put to the back of his mind before finally returned to his thoughts.She looked at the back of Liu Xiang, who was in a state of restlessness and lost his mind, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and she was shocked in her heart: "No wonder it looks familiar!"

The past few days have undergone great changes, Liu Xiang has lost the old atmosphere of laughing and cursing, and even though he still wears women's clothing, he looks much cleaner and neater. He is almost a different person from the unscrupulous senior brother he once knew.And this figure and appearance... is very much like the sneaky figure that I saw sneaking into the rare treasure shop when I was traveling with Qingqing that day in Jinling! ——If Liu Xiang changed back into men's clothes, he would be almost exactly the same as the person he saw that day!

And it's strange to say that Liu Xiang, the senior brother, always likes to stick to Junior Sister Xiangxiang, relying on his female attire to dress up, it can almost be said that he is not separated from Meng, and Meng is not separated from his focus, and it was like this when Yunmeng was.Although I haven't visited the imperial capital for a long time, I still often hear that the two have worked for the imperial capital for these years, and their relationship is very strong.But after returning to the imperial capital this time, I have never seen Xiangxiang...

As Luo Xing'er thought about it, she felt that her doubts were getting heavier.Although he didn't know the truth, he had an ominous premonition.The mood that had just been relaxed immediately became gloomy again.Looking at Chili who was happily looking for someone to drink, he felt that the dark clouds had covered the sky over the imperial capital at some point, and he couldn't help but sigh——

"The mountains and the rain are about to come and the wind will fill the building..."
