After walking for about ten days, Wuliang Mountain is almost here.

Yu Wuque seldom had the opportunity to go down the mountain, and he was the happiest when he traveled far away, and he didn't feel tired all the way.

It doesn't matter during the day, the spiritual power can still protect the body, but at night, the frost and snow are freezing, and even holding the charcoal basin is too cold to shiver.

It would be better if he could sit on a flying armor, but according to the rules of Wuliangzhai, he must walk, which is also the first punishment imposed on a monk who made a mistake-tiring his body and skin.

If you are escorted up the mountain, you have to walk purely on your feet without wearing a prison sentence.

He Bugui personally took Yu Wuque to plead guilty, so he could take a carriage, and occasionally find an inn to stay in a larger town or village.If so, he still tossed He Bugui enough, even though Yu Wuque and Kongzhi were attentive and attentive, but he was too weak to hold him, and Yu Wuque felt so distressed.

On the day of the winter solstice, they finally entered Qiulang City.

Kong Zhi booked the best inn in the city to stay, the carriage stopped, the master and apprentice got out of the car, Yu Wuque took up the burden and said: "Master, I heard that the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and snow mountain plum in Qiulang City are very famous. Go buy some back."

Ever since there was a chef cooking in Fukong Palace, He Bugui's mouth became more and more snarky day by day.

This trip, not to mention the bumps and fatigue, did not even eat a decent meal, but when he heard that there was something delicious, Crane Bugui didn't say a word, he smacked his lips to untie the purse, and threw it to Yu Wuque.

"enough?"

"It's too much." Yu Wuque held the heavy purse, "It's enough to buy a lot of people. Is there anything else Master wants to eat?"

If you want to eat too much, it must be cooked by a chef, otherwise you might as well drink the wind.

He Bugui glanced at the bustling streets decorated with lights and festoons, and asked inappropriately: "Today is the winter solstice, what should we eat?"

Yu Wuque replied, "Dumplings and glutinous rice balls."

"Oh." He Bugui curled his lips, "There must be some in the inn, just throw it away. If there are good ones out there, you can buy some back, just eat it."

Yu Wuque: "?"

Hearing this reluctant tone, he said: "The winter solstice will be over that year, how can we make it up, if not, let's borrow the kitchen and I will make it for Master?"

Crane Bugui raised his eyebrows: "Very good."

Yu Wuque thought it was funny: "Master wants to eat what I made, just tell me."

"I haven't." He Bugui stepped forward, "I can make do with it."

"It's okay, it's my apprentice who is reluctant to let you go." Yu Wuque invited the temperamental master into the house, "Then the master is resting in the inn, take a hot bath, and I will come back after soaking, let's have a good time Have a meal."

The burden was placed in the room, and Yu Wuque grabbed the purse and was about to go out. Kongzhi chased him out and stuffed him with an umbrella, and put him in a luxurious mink fur.

Yu Wuque: "I'm hot! Don't wear it."

Kong Zhi paused: "The embroidered puppet was done early in the morning, and this time I brought it down the mountain specially, and made it according to Mr. Yu's size. Is it true that you don't want to wear it?"

Master gave it, so it must be worn.

Yu Wuque changed his words: "Put it on! I'm so cold! Fasten it tighter."

Kong Zhi tied a knot, and Yu Wuque gleefully slipped into the street and disappeared.

Qiulang City is very prosperous, with a lot of traffic and voices, and it coincides with the winter solstice, it is really very lively.

Although there was snowflakes in the sky, and the street was wet with snow, but the vendors were hawking, and the delicious food was smelling, Yu Wuque wandered around blindly, and took away several bags of food in a short while.

A dazzling array of goods, food and play, I want to buy everything back to coax his noble master, but he only has two hands, which is not enough.

He stopped when he reached the bulletin board, his attention was drawn to him.It is really impossible not to notice that there is a new play in the theater posted on it - [After the rebirth, the devil proves that the jade of Tao is perfect and fights against the nine-headed demon]

Yu Wuque: "??"

Booksellers on the side are also taking the opportunity to sell best-selling story books.

"Undead History of the Undead City"

"Quick Mouth Jade Without Queue"

"The Years I Jumped Up and Down in Tianji Palace"

"Hundred Tips to Teach You to Become a Top Yanshi Quickly - Notes of Cranes Not Returning"

"Have you ever seen the Floating Palace in the Three Moments of Yinshi——Yu Wuque's Self-reported Growth Experience"

Yu Wuque picked up a copy of "Working Hard for the Best Life of a Disciple" and asked the book dealer speechlessly, "Is there really someone who bought these? Who wrote them?"

"It's selling very well!" The book seller said, "Buy a book and get a portrait, sir, do you want it?"

The portrait in the bookseller's hand shows that Yu Wuque's painting is full of coquettishness and no temperament. At first glance, it looks like an embroidered pillow with superficial appearance, while the other one is a big nine-headed monster, grinning fiercely.

Thanks to the big mouth Xiaoyuelou, the news about Tianji Palace spread to the outside world, and there were all kinds of outrageous rumors. Not to mention how tall Wu Tian was, the news that Yu Wuque was a handsome man spread like wildfire, and there was no picture. That's all for Cheng Pan'an, he is a disciple of Tianji Palace anyway, an upright young monk, painted with his breasts exposed, breasts exposed, hair disheveled, like the fugitive leader of a bankrupt brothel.

Yu Wuque was so angry that the book seller added fuel to the fire: "I heard that Yu Wuque is the reincarnation of Ji Xuan, and the city of immortality is unknown. Put him on the door and guard the house to ward off evil spirits. This is the nine-headed demon he subdued, plus Put it on to welcome good fortune, from the winter solstice to the New Year's Eve, ghosts and ghosts dare not come to the door, it works!"

"It works! Who wants to stick these two ugly things on the door!" Yu Wuque said angrily, "Besides, that monster has only eight heads, how can there be nine! Your book is all made up."

"If you don't want it, you don't want it. My son, don't stop me from doing business. You don't want others to like it."

Just as he was talking, a group of people squeezed in from the crowd, all wearing black cloaks and veils, with swords on their waists, and tall stature, they were not ordinary monks at first glance. These people gave way, Yu Wuque put down the painting and looked over.

The leader was an elderly woman with really beautiful eyes and a specially shaped flower tint on her forehead. Yu Wuque felt familiar and took a few more glances, but this woman seemed to feel that someone was staring at her. , looking at Shang Yu Wu Que through the crowd.

Whoa!Such sharp eyes, this aunt is a bit fierce.

Yu Wuque secretly thought.

The woman squinted her eyes slightly and looked at it for a moment. The person behind her was about to speak, so she moved her eyes away and continued walking forward.

Unexpectedly, at this crowded stall, Yu Wuque was inexplicably squeezed into a corner, and the purse disappeared. He saw two young boys running against the flow of people to the dark alley, so he chased after them.

Turning around and turning into a dead end, Yu Wuque saw that there was no one around, so he picked up the broom beside him as a sword and struck at him: "I stole it from Grandpa, who gave you the guts!"

"Ouch!"

The little thief fell to the ground in pain, clutching his legs and humming, he didn't feel panic at all, instead he raised a pair of aggrieved eyes, and said coquettishly: "You hit so hard, you beat him blue."

Isn't this delicate voice an old acquaintance!

"Qing Lan?" Yu Wuque dropped the broom, quickly helped him up, and said unexpectedly, "There is something wrong with you, the Tianji Palace is not waiting, and ran out to steal me?"

"Whoever wants to steal you is not to lure you here."

While talking, the other thief also turned around, took off his mask, revealing a handsome face of a nobleman, Yue Tingfang said: "Wu Que, come here to talk to you."

The three of them found the end of a dark alley where there was no one, and they were together with a sound-proof enchantment, and then they spoke.

It turned out that apart from the two of them, Ling Xiao was also sneaking down the mountain together. The three of them were here to find Ling Lan.

Yue Tingfang said: "A month ago, Sister Lan sent Aunt Ling back to Qizhi City. She was also accompanied by the gatekeepers of Tianji Palace. The palace master said that the Yulingzong was in trouble, so he had to send someone to protect him and help him manage the ups and downs. In the end, he went like this." It's been a long time, Sister Lan hasn't come back yet."

"We all thought she was staying at Yulingzong to accompany Aunt Ling, but Brother Xiao asked and said that Sister Lan had left long ago. Counting the days, if she left early in the morning, she should have returned to Tianji Palace, but she didn't see anyone coming back, so she contacted her." not on."

"In addition, the news of Uncle Ling's appearance spread all over the world. One today and tomorrow, the truth is unknown. Brother Xiao was worried that Sister Lan was looking for him, so he tried every means to get in touch. Sister Lan refused to say too much, but She admitted that she was indeed looking for Uncle Ling."

Ling Lan was more irritable than Ling Xiao. Ever since she knew that Ling Si had betrayed her family and that the culprit of monsters and beasts was her own father, she held her breath, and it was not surprising that she would go out to find Yu Wuque without permission.

But Ling Si fled for a month. Although he occasionally appeared, no one caught him, and the location where he appeared was illogical, as if he was deliberately circled around the capital, and he couldn't see the destination. How can a person find it?

Wu Qinglan said: "Ling Lan is a high-level student of martial arts, so it's not easy to find someone? Besides, Ling Xiao said that she is familiar with the characteristics of her father's spells, and using this to find people is more convenient than others. Ling Lan also said in the letter that she I have traced Uncle Ling's track, but he has escaped several times, and she will never come back until he is caught."

Yu Wuque couldn't put it into words: "Sister Lan wants to arrest someone, is it because she wants to destroy her relatives righteously, or does she just want to know the cause and effect?"

"I'm afraid she didn't think it through herself, she lost her position because of her impatience." Yue Tingfang said, "This matter must not be known to others. She ran out without permission and violated the house rules, and if anyone finds out that she has a way to find Uncle Ling , and if you don’t tell me, you will be regarded as a party member. Outsiders will accuse her of covering up and conniving at that time, so it will be even more difficult for Yulingzong."

Yu Wuque: "So you all ran down to find someone together with Brother Xiao? Then you are also breaking the rules!"

Hearing his plausible words, Yue Tingfang didn't know about him yet, and asked back: "Then what should I do, don't you care?"

"Of course we have to take care of it. Brother Xiao's business is our business, but—" Yu Wuque rubbed his chin, but couldn't think of a good way.

Yue Tingfang explained that he saw Ling Xiao's expression was different on the mountain before. At that time, Ling Xiao had made up his mind to run out to find his sister. Yue Tingfang stalked him to find out the truth, and immediately decided to join him. Partner, how could it be possible to be absent for such a thing, so the three of them each made a good excuse and went down the mountain.

Ling Xiao lied about collecting herbs, Chang Yunqing did not suspect him.

Wu Qinglan usually has a lot of shit, today he buys rouge powder and tomorrow he goes to get the fashionable materials ordered by his uncle, he finds a random excuse, Mu Qingjun shakes his head and immediately agrees to leave.

When it was the turn of Mr. Yue, who was born noble, he could only make a big fuss, saying that someone in the family was sick and wanted to go back to visit. When Master Changsi heard that the elders of Shangqing Temple were sick, he must go home and see, so he let him go. .

Following along the way, Xiaoyue Tower reported Ling Si's latest news all over the world, and the three of them found Ling Lan near Qiulang City.

But she avoided seeing her, and Ling Xiao contacted her to talk about it, and then it was agreed to meet outside the city tonight.

Yu Wuque slapped his thigh immediately: "I'll go too!"

"You can't go." Yue Tingfang pressed his hand, "Everyone is staring at you and Shangxian Taiwei, and they know everything about it. We are going to persuade you to make peace, not to arrest people. In case Sister Lan refuses to come back , You went to make a scene and everyone knows about it, didn't you definitely violate the rules of the house?"

Wu Qinglan also echoed: "Yes, we were investigating in the city, and we heard that you and Shangxian were staying, and I saw you shopping nearby, so I tried to lure you over to let me know. Come on, you will find out tomorrow that you are going to make a fuss."

"Yes, I'm sure I'll make trouble." Yu Wuque said, "But you and her have an appointment outside the city, is it safe? I see that there are many monks in Qiulang City, and I can't tell which Taoist sect they are from. I won't return it today." A group of dark people came, everyone is looking for Uncle Ling, maybe no one is watching the movement of Yulingzong."

Yu Wuque was justified in worrying, so he let the three of them go to find someone outside the city. If something happened, the people in Tianji Palace would have no idea who would come to rescue them. , Xue Yuandian even pinned the blame for the sudden death of the right guardian on Yulingzong's head, saying that he would pay blood for blood, no matter how he thought about it, he was not at ease.

"Why don't you do this." Wu Qinglan took off a golden ruby ​​hairpin on her head, held it up and said, "This is a twin magic weapon, one for me and one for you. If you are in danger, the ruby ​​will glow, and you will know that I am asking for help." , when the time comes, we can be found by it.”

Yue Tingfang said: "That's fine, you can rest assured that you don't have to follow, otherwise we won't be able to follow up with the fairy, besides, you two have to go to Wuliangzhai, don't delay your business, anyway, it's just tonight, I will give you anything You're crazy."

Yu Wuque had no choice but to give up, hooked his head and asked Wu Qinglan to put a golden hairpin on herself, and the three of them bid farewell in a hurry.

Back at the inn, Yu Wuque went to the kitchen to knead dough and mix stuffing, made a pot of delicious dumplings, and carried them to Hebugui's room for dinner.

Yu Wuque was preoccupied with other things, looked out of the window from time to time, and ate absent-mindedly.

Crane Bugui was satisfied with it, he ate sweet cake and sweet cheese, and ate a large bowl of dumplings. After eating, he kneaded snow-mountain plums and sipped tea. Only then did he have the time to ask Yu Wuque: "What did you encounter on the street?" ?”

"Ah?" Yu Wuque thought for a while, "I met a group of black-clothed monks, and the leader was an aunt. She looked very powerful, but I couldn't tell which Taoist sect it was from."

Crane Bugui asked, "Does it have any characteristics?"

"There is no door badge on the sword, and no pattern on the clothes, but the aunt has a flower on her forehead, like a swallow. I don't know when I saw it. I look familiar."

"Swallow?" He Bugui thought to himself, could it be Yaying?

The people from Lieyan Hall came to Qiulang City no matter what.

I don't know if Ya Ying saw Yu Wuque or not. Speaking of which, she has saved Yu Wuque's life, and if she is destined to meet again, she should be worshiped by Yu Wuque.

When he started talking, Yu Wuque didn't seem to be curious, and casually said that he was still in a daze, obviously something was on his mind.

He Bugui asked suspiciously, "What else happened to you?"

"Ah!" Yu Wuque's eyes widened, "Master, why do you ask such a question?"

"There's something on your face."

Yu Wuque frowned: "No."

"Yes." He Bugui said, "What a guilty conscience."

Yu Wuque pursed his lips: "..."

He Bugui glanced at the shiny ruby ​​hairpin on the top of the opponent's head: "Where did you buy the hairpin?"

Yu Wuque promised not to lie, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only hesitate: "Just...outside."

He Bugui blows away the tea leaves: "You still like these."

Yu Wuque's scalp was numb: "Hey, I'm just looking at it, the ruby ​​is red, so pretty."

"It's beautiful. The black blood stone is as red as blood. It's hard to find a thousand pieces of gold. One stone with two petals can send a message across thousands of miles." Crane Bugui has always been keen on treasures in the world. people are looking for you."

"What?" Yu Wuque was stunned for a moment, then tore off the hairpin to have a look.

Crane Bugui laughed and said: "It has been blinking for a long time, but you just stared at it in a daze, didn't you notice it?"

"Master! It's not good!" Yu Wuque stood up holding the hairpin "Teng", and looked out the window eagerly, "I dare not hide it from you, this hairpin was given to me by Wu Qinglan, they went to find Ling Lan, He said that in case of danger, he would use the hairpin to call for help, and now they are probably in danger outside the city!"

The cold wind came in from the window, He Bugui coughed a few times, then suddenly paused, he frowned and looked over, Yu Wuque also smelled it: "There is a bloody smell in the wind, it came from outside the city."

He Bugui lowered his face: "Not only that, this smell can only be found on Chen corpses."

"Master, let's—ah!"

He Bugui quickly fetched his saber, and flew out of the window as soon as he lifted Yu Wuque.

"You Yujian, I will find someone." He Bugui threatened, "If you dare to throw me, I will hit you with five hundred bamboo boards, go away!"
