After being pulled up by the master

Xue Wendi wove a small swift out of reed stems and let it fly on the top of the back mountain.

There was a mountain stream in that place, which was later known as Mayfly Quxie.

Three people stood on the top of the mountain, each holding a sword, and raised their eyes to look into the distance.The clouds are spread out layer by layer like fish scales, and the order is knotted. A little light blue sky fills the gap in the middle, surging like the sea, swifts lightly drilled into the clouds, and followed them away.The wind on the top of the mountain blew over Xue Wendi's bamboo flute, Sun Xuehua's sword tassel, and the evil spirit transmission bell on Gu Qing's waist, blowing the soft murmur of the long years.

Swift fell into an unfathomable secret passage.

Xue Wendi sat in meditation with a feeling in his heart.

The secret path seems to lead directly to the underworld, and in the darkness, evil ghosts are born and stare at them.Swift carried his spiritual thoughts all the way down, and finally touched a relatively spacious place.

A drop of cold water hit Swift's back, and Xue Wendi trembled - the breath was so cold, cold and clammy, piercing through the bones.

Seeing this, Sun Xuehua, who was protecting him, condensed spiritual energy on his two fingers, dispelling the chill for him.

Swift hovered on the slippery floor tiles, and the surrounding darkness was like smudged ink, making people feel confused.

Xue Wendi suddenly realized that this was fog.

How can there be fog under the ground?

Just as Xue Wendi was meditating, there was a faint sound from the depths of the darkness—the sound of iron chains colliding with floor tiles.

Something is being held in this place.

Swift approached cautiously, and soon stopped again—the huge enchantment was like a sky curtain, completely separating the inside and the outside.The barrier is covered with golden cracks, constantly emitting lightning, silent but extremely oppressive.

Xue Wendi couldn't help frowning, what kind of dangerous thing needs to use such a strong enchantment?

Swift hesitated outside the barrier, and then looked behind. The thick fog and the barrier were clearly separated, and it was in the gap, advancing and retreating in a single thought.

A flash of lightning struck from the top of the secret room to the floor tiles at his feet, and a faint golden light flashed by. Xue Wendi vaguely saw a person locked inside the barrier—a very young child.

He was silent, so he decided to come back first and discuss the next step with Sun Xuehua.

"Little bird?"

Suddenly, a still immature voice came from the barrier.

Xue Wendi was startled, but did not move.

The child is awake?

The answer to his question was the sound of rattling iron chains—the child crawled to the edge of the barrier.

Through the faint light, Xue Wendi saw a pale face, the facial features hadn't fully opened, it was small, and because it was too thin, the eye sockets were slightly sunken, making the eyes bigger than normal For some, the pupil color is very light, and it seems that they can't find the focus of their eyes at all.

But Xue Wendi could sense that he was staring at him intently.

"Little bird."

The child lay on the ground and looked at him, his eyes were full of joy.

Across an insurmountable barrier, he didn't speak any more, just watched quietly, and after a while, the shining eyes gradually dimmed.

"Little bird, why are you here?"

The child lowered his eyelids, and the thick eyelashes left a deep shadow under the eye sockets. Xue Wendi couldn't speak, and Swift stood silently.

The child looked up at him again, and after a while, tears filled his eyes.With her little face on her arms, tears were streaming down from the corners of her eyes.

"Little bird, can you hear me?"

The other party asked him.

Xue Wendi didn't know how to answer for a moment - it was not easy for this child to be able to quickly lock himself under layers of blockade.

After thinking twice, he still decided to leave first and discuss with Sun Xuehua.

Swift turned her back, and heard the other party choked up again: "Are you leaving? Will you come again next time? If you come—"

The enchantment suddenly exploded with a loud noise, like five thunders crashing on the top, and the whole ground trembled.

Yuyan froze, but was suddenly grabbed tightly and hid in the skirt of her clothes.The child hugged him, and retreated to the base of the wall. The devilish energy on his body completely enveloped his aura.

Xue Wendi couldn't help but hold his breath.

someone is coming.

"time to eat."

The man seemed very dissatisfied, he threw balls of soft and rotten things to this side, and walked away after two or three throws.The barrier descended again, locking him and the child inside.

The stench of blood filled the whole space, Xue Wendi couldn't help frowning, is it rotten flesh?

The child took a long breath and held him in his palm: "It's okay, he didn't find you."

In fact, if you don't grab me, I won't be found.

Xue Wendi really wanted to explain, but it was useless now.The other party also had good intentions, so he gently rubbed the palm of this person to show his gratitude.

The child was very happy, and touched his back affectionately, but soon became depressed again: "But you can't go now."

Xue Wendi thought about it, and pecked out a few characters in his palm: "Don't worry, I have a solution."

Wait until the person comes to deliver the food tomorrow, and I will take the opportunity to escape.

Xue Wendi still wanted to continue pecking, so he heard the child mourn: "But, the barrier is only opened every half a month."

Swift froze.

Xue Wendi seemed shocked by the news, a little dazed.Although there is only a little spiritual thought in Yuyan, it will not affect his own activities, but as long as this spiritual thought is still there, he can perceive all the movements in this secret room. For him, it is really troublesome.

"Why did they come in half a month?"

Xue Wendi still didn't want to give up. In the dark, the other party was silent for a long time.

"They just have to make sure I'm alive, the rest doesn't matter."

The kid explained.

"They only feed you carrion?"

"Sometimes there are rotten fish and rotten shrimp." The child paused for a while, stroking his swallowtail with his fingertips, "They say that monsters should eat this kind of thing."

Xue Wendi was in a complicated mood: "Why did you come to Yuanyuan?"

Although Lin Yuan's actions are too inhumane, but if he stands on the righteous side, it seems understandable to imprison a powerful demon.

"My mother is a disciple of Linyuan."

The child didn't defend him, and confided the past to him like a chat among friends.

"My father is the devil. Many days ago, I forgot how long ago, he suddenly went crazy and ate my mother. Before my mother died, she asked me to go to Linyuan, saying that there would be someone to protect me. I wanted to take my brother with me, but he didn't want to."

As the child spoke, his voice gradually lowered, "I still had the sword my mother gave me, but those people took it away."

Xue Wendi was moved with compassion, but he was still very confused: "I heard from Master that cultivators of immortals cannot form Taoist couples with evil spirits. The spiritual energy and the evil energy are completely in conflict, and there is no way to have children."

"What is a Taoist couple?"

the kid asked him.

Xue Wendi said dumbly: "You don't know? Your father and your mother got married to have you."

"What is marriage?"

The other party was very confused, and Xue Wendi didn't know how to explain it to him, so he murmured, "That's right, your parents will be together forever."

The child fell into silence, and he thought about it seriously: "My father ate my mother, so they can be together for the rest of their lives, that is, Taoist couple?"

Xue Wendi was shocked, and the speed of pecking was obviously much faster: "No, no, that's not the case!"

He was eager to explain, and the strength increased a lot unconsciously. The child seemed to be hurt by him, and he hesitated to let go, timidly murmured: "Be gentle."

Xue Wendi paused, embarrassed, and pressed his head against the man's palm, feeling inexplicably lost.

"Did I make you angry?" the child asked him cautiously.

Swift shook her head.

But it was obvious that the other party was not happy, he didn't speak, he put it on the ground lightly, and turned his back.

Swift flew to his shoulder again, hesitated to speak, the other party froze, and put this new friend on the ground again.

Swift switched sides and stood on one shoulder.

The child was embarrassed: "I want to eat."

Xue Wendi's breathing was slightly stagnant.

"Dirty, don't look at it."

The child put him far away, and the iron chain shook, hitting Xue Wendi hard on the heart one after another.

This person also knew that the thing was dirty, but if he didn't eat it, he would starve to death, and all he could do was not to look at it, but to close his eyes and maintain his last bit of decency.

On the other side of the barrier, there was a subtle sound of eating.The child didn't cry, didn't gobble it up, and didn't vomit while eating.He was very calm and calm, as if it was an ordinary meal.

Xue Wendi suddenly felt sour, Linyuan was just humiliating him by feeding this child this kind of thing.

I don't know how long it took, the child finally finished eating, but he didn't come over immediately, but shrank in the corner.Yuyan walked towards him, but the other party said: "Don't come here, I'm dirty."

Xue Wendi stood still.

The rotten atmosphere in the enchantment has not dissipated, and the stench is still unpleasant. The child made no sound, as if he was asleep.

On Qingyan, Xue Wendi slowly opened his eyes.

"How's it going?"

Gu Qing asked him, Xue Wendi rubbed the center of his brows, showing a tired face: "I found him, in a secret room on the back of Xiuming Mountain."

"Xiuming Mountain Terrace? Then we won't be able to enter, unless the leader gives permission."

Gu Qing looked distressed, Xue Wendi looked at her, then turned to Sun Xuehua, beckoning to him.The boy rolled over and sat beside him.Xue Wendi listened to him a few words, and Sun Xuehua's iceberg-like face unexpectedly showed a trace of hesitation.

"You don't take me with you when you whisper, isn't it too strange?"

Gu Qing pursed her lips, not very happy, Sun Xuehua said seriously: "Ah Qing, things are a little tricky, are you sure you want to come with us?"

"Of course." Gu Qing nodded quickly, "Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, I'm not bad, and I won't hold you back. Brother, you have to trust me."

"I don't believe you, it's just that there will be a lot of risks in the future, and I can't judge the outcome." Sun Xuehua confirmed to her again with burning eyes, "If you don't want to participate, you can pretend that you don't know now. We are together, then you have to hold the sword in your hand, understand?"

Gu Qing was stunned by his serious expression. Although Sun Xuehua usually had an indifferent face, he had never been so serious like today. It seemed that he was not speaking as his senior brother, but as Lin Yuan. Jian's identity warned her that there will be many dangers in the future, and there is still a chance to regret it now.

Gu Qing was a little flustered, but he didn't choose to back down, but nodded seriously: "Okay, I understand, I still want to be with you, if you encounter danger in the future, you don't have to worry, I will run first."

"En." Sun Xuehua didn't stop her, "Now listen to me..."

When Gu Qing was walking on the way to the speculative hall, he was still in a daze.The senior brother told her that the child's mother was born in Linyuan, how is this possible?Not to mention whether this child can be born, but in the place of Night City, can a person who cultivates immortals enter alive?

Sun Xuehua had the same doubts, so he asked his junior sister to go to the Sibian Hall to find the list of sword weapons from 14 years ago or even earlier, and he went to look for the "mother's sword" that the child said.One is to determine whether the sword is really from Linyuan, and the other is to find the sword owner through the signature on the sword.

Xue Wendi was only responsible for communicating with the child to confirm whether he was lying.

Gu Qing often joked later, saying that they seemed to be carrying out a secret and important task at that time, stretched like a string, so nervous that they were dying.

But at that time, for them at the age of thirteen or fourteen, this was already the most careful plan imaginable.Everything unfolded quietly, young curiosity got the upper hand, and they didn't realize the danger was approaching.
