Yuan Qinghang glanced at Li Qinghong, took a step forward, and stood in front of him: "It's all a misunderstanding, everyone is looking at the road, maybe a little nervous."
The thin and tall man still didn't give up, and said bitterly: "If something happens to you in the future, don't blame our Mu family for not helping you!"
Yuan Qinghang said lightly: "It is a favor to help, and it is duty not to help."
Standing behind him, Li Qinghong slightly raised his eyebrows at the tall and thin man from an angle that was invisible to everyone, his eyes were full of provocation and sarcasm.
When the tall and thin man saw it, he was furious and gritted his teeth in a low voice to Mu Jiarong: "That bitch did it on purpose, son, be careful, I always think he has bad intentions for you."
Mu Jiarong's face was straight, and for some reason, he felt a little strangely irritable: "Enough, he has no grievances with us, don't talk nonsense."
Next, the road is even more difficult and dangerous.
You can usually fly with the sword outside, but this ancient formation is born to suppress the cultivation base. If you release a little spiritual power, you will immediately attract suppression everywhere. Not to mention that it is impossible to control the sword, you must be careful even if the spiritual power leaks out .
After walking for half a day, the pale sun overhead slowly sank to the west, and finally after sunset, everyone reached a large flat layer with gentle mountains.
Not only them, but the teams that went first also stopped here, and bright bonfires were everywhere.
Everyone's physical strength was exhausted to varying degrees. Yuan Qinghang and Ning Duo had extremely high cultivation levels and were still energetic. Most of them were already so tired that their feet were sore and weak, and they were all trying their best to support them.
Finally arrived at the first landing point, everyone was overjoyed, collapsed and rested, Shang Lang was alive and well, leading a few juniors to build a bonfire, and started to get supplies from the storage bag .
The Cangqiong Pai family has a big business, and they brought enough ingredients. After a while, the barbecues of various breeds of spirit beasts have been set on the campfire, and they are roasting cracklingly, and the fat is dripping.
People in Shennong Valley are more methodical, taking out a lot of utensils, including casserole pots, soup cups, and even a large bag of special incense charcoal. The fragrance is tangy.
Naturally, Mu Jiarong didn't touch Yangchun water with his hands, and sat on the side with his sleeves folded, waiting for the soup to boil.
Yuan Qinghang found a bonfire and sat down, took out food from the storage bag, and greeted Chang Yuaner: "Miss Chang, sit down and eat something right away."
Although Chang Yuan'er was angry and weak, but she had the nerve to wait for someone to serve her, so she quickly rolled up her sleeves: "I'll work, brother Li, take a break."
Yuan Qinghang smiled and said: "Let's go together, I will clean, and you will be in charge of the barbecue."
Li Qinghong suddenly snatched the raw meat from Chang Yuan'er's hand, and said with a blunt smile: "Why do you have the nerve to ask you to do these heavy jobs, Miss Chang should talk to her sisters, we're done, I'll call you directly .”
Chang Yuan'er was annoyed and annoyed, she was too embarrassed to stay any longer, stomped her feet, and went to Lingwu Hall.
Yuan Qinghang cast a small water purification spell to clean the ingredients, raised his head in the firelight, and peeked aside.
Not far away, there was a figure standing quietly, under the light of the flickering fire, he neither went to the Sky Sect nor to Yuan Qinghang.
... as if looking into the distance, but also seems to be in a silent trance.
Shang Lang stared at his barbecue grill, watched the first batch of meat come out, grabbed a handful, and ran to Mu Jiarong: "Come here, have a taste."
Seeing Mu Jiarong holding a bunch with restraint, he quickly ran to Ning Duo and passed several bunches: "Junior brother, fill up your stomach quickly."
Ning Duo put his hands behind his back and took a look: "No, I'm not hungry."
After a pause, he said lightly, "I have something to eat later."
Yuan Qinghang pricked up his ears, and the skewer of meat in his hand fell to the ground with a slap.
He exaggeratedly said loudly: "Ah, it was not enough, and one was lost!"
He turned his head to Shang Lang and said sincerely: "Young Master Shang, we will stop being courteous, don't blame, don't blame."
Shang Lang hurried over and stuffed a large bunch of barbecued meat into Li Qinghong's hand: "Don't tell me earlier, I'll deliver it to you later."
Li Qinghong looked at him with dark eyes, and there was a trace of gratitude in his eyes: "Mr. Shang is really warm-hearted, thank you very much."
Shang Lang scratched his head embarrassingly: "Why are you polite, it's such a small matter."
Li Qinghong lowered his head.
In the light of the fire, the circles of his eyes seemed to be slightly red: "Since I was a child... I have always eaten leftovers from other people's food, and no one gave me food first."
Shang Lang was startled, stared at him blankly, and then at Yuan Qinghang, with a flash of unbearable expression in his eyes.
……
Yuan Qinghang watched Shang Lang walk away, and said in a low voice, "Is it interesting to lie to such a fool?"
Li Qinghong's resentful expression suddenly disappeared, he smiled lightly, slightly proud: "It's very interesting."
Yuan Qinghang shook his head: "Aunt Hong is not short of your food and clothing expenses. If you don't know, you might think that my senior brother is oppressing you."
Li Qinghong squinted at him: "Why not, didn't brother Young Master bully me when I was young?"
Yuan Qinghang smiled helplessly: "It was there at the beginning, but it was changed later. Do you want to remember it for a lifetime?"
Li Qinghong said: "Of course. Happy things will be remembered, but unhappy things will be remembered for a longer time."
Yuan Qinghang sat in a daze, then suddenly raised his head and took a quick look at Ning Duo's back.
Is it?Will those painful things in childhood be remembered forever and remain in one's heart?
He took a bite of the barbecue, then passed it to Li Qinghong absent-mindedly: "Well, it's delicious...you have a taste."
Li Qinghong curled his lips in disgust: "What's delicious about the last thing he sent. Sooner or later, I want him to be the first to bring it to me."
Yuan Qinghang looked up into the distance.
Shang Lang ran to Mu Jiarong's side, and he didn't know what he said, which made Mu Jiarong smile, and his proud little face was a little warm under the firelight.
Yuan Qinghang sighed: "That's a bit difficult."
Li Qinghong looked over there, the smile on his lips faded, with a bit of cold jealousy.
He sneered: "What's the problem? If the person in front of the queue dies, why don't you give it to me first?"
The movements in Yuan Qinghang's hands paused.
He turned his head and looked at Li Qinghong: "Brother Hong, it's fine if you're joking, if you really kill people indiscriminately, I won't forgive you."
Li Qinghong met his gaze: "So what if you don't forgive? Kill me to avenge outsiders? I don't believe you will treat me like this."
Under the firelight, Yuan Qinghang's eyes were calm and serious: "You'd better not try it, or I promise, you will regret it."
Li Qinghong tilted his head, and suddenly smiled obediently: "Don't worry, brother young master. I will listen to everything you say."
After a while, the food of each family was almost cooked, and the delicacies soup simmering in the big casserole of Shennong Valley was bubbling, and I don’t know what kind of spirit beast meat was added to stew it, and the fresh fragrance was everywhere. jump up.
Mu Jiarong ordered people to fill several large bowls, and gave them to everyone to taste. Li Ji and the others also took the special spirit fruit wine, and happily distributed a few bottles from house to house.
After a while, the second batch of barbecue for Cang Qiong Pie was ready.
Shang Lang grabbed a bunch of meat and was about to send it to Yuan Qinghang and the others. The tall and thin man from the Mu family happened to be next to him. He rolled his eyes and rushed to take it over: "Mr. Shang, I'll help you send it over." ah."
Shang Lang only said that he wanted to ease the conflict during the day, and quickly handed it over: "Okay, okay."
The man carried a big plate and walked up to Yuan Qinghang and Li Qinghong: "You two young masters..."
Suddenly, his foot slipped, and the whole plate of barbecue was severely knocked over to the ground, covered with dust, gravel,
He immediately exaggeratedly exclaimed: "Oh, I didn't pay attention to my feet, I really couldn't react."
Li Qinghong raised his head slowly, his dark eyes were as silent as death, watching him without saying a word.
After a while, he said in harmony, "I'm starving to death, and finally someone gave it to me first, why are you so bad?"
That man was proud of himself, Li Qinghong spoke in such a soft voice, for some reason, his heart suddenly trembled, his hairs stood on end.
Shang Lang rushed over from a distance, looked at the meat all over the floor, and then looked at the look on the face of that thin and tall man, what didn't he understand?
He was about to lose his temper when Mu Jiarong had already walked over and said angrily to the senior brother, "Don't you have eyes when you walk? You can also wrestle when you go up the mountain, and you can also wrestle when you hold something!"
In name, he and these Mu family disciples are senior brothers, but in reality he has a high status, and his relationship with these senior brothers is more like master and servant.
He took the initiative to reprimand him like this, and he got angry first. Although Shang Lang was angry, he could only shut his mouth angrily.
Li Qinghong waited for a while, then slowly picked up the barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth.
Shocked, Shang Lang rushed forward and snatched the skewer of barbecued meat: "What are you doing, it's all dirty!"
Li Qinghong lowered his head silently, his voice seemed to be slightly choked up: "It's nothing... I don't want to waste Mr. Shang's heart."
Shang Lang was dumbfounded, looked at Yuan Qinghang at a loss, and asked for help in a low voice: "He, is he crying?"
Yuan Qinghang really didn't see Li Qinghong teasing him, stood up abruptly, and patted his shoulder: "Yes, yes, he is touched and sad, hurry up and wipe his tears."
He grabbed a large pile of food in front of him, and ran to Ning Duo: "Okay, I'll share it with you."
There is already a resentful woman over there, if you don't care about it, sooner or later there will be resentment around here, and ice will form on the top of the mountain.
He even had a strange feeling that if he really didn't feed a few mouthfuls, this person would not eat for a whole night, and would rather be hungry!
... This platform on the mountainside occupies a large area, with layers upon layers. There are about two or three layers for camping and short rest.
Yuan Qinghang pulled Ning Duo to find a big rock.
There is a slightly concave hole behind the big rock, shrinking in the back, you can look at the starry sky in front, and hide from the strong wind in the back, which is quite comfortable and quiet.
He moved a few stones around, built a simple small table, put the barbecue meat, mushroom soup, and a bottle of fruit wine sent by Li Ji on it, and sat down cross-legged .
Looking at Ning Duo who was motionless and standing with his hands behind his back, he sighed.
"Ning Xianjun, I know that you only hold the sword in your hand and stay away from the kitchen. But it's all set up properly, so I can't ask me to feed you with my own hands."
Ning Duo glanced at him silently, finally lifted the hem of his clothes lightly, and sat beside him.
Yuan Qinghang rubbed his fingers, lit a bunch of small flame spells, heated up a few skewers of charred barbecue, and then handed them to his mouth thoughtfully: "Come on, if you really want someone to feed you, you can Not impossible."
Ning Duo lowered his eyes to look, his eyes were gloomy: "Have you always been like this?"
Yuan Qinghang asked in confusion: "How has it always been?"
"First he was extremely bad to people, and then he suddenly became nice to that person." He said calmly, biting a piece of cooked meat of spirit beasts gently, chewing slowly, "For children, this little bit is good. , is enough to make him grateful and determined."
Yuan Qinghang blinked.
Hehe, dare to talk to Li Qinghong, this person listens to everything.
"When Ning Xiaoxian was young, did he remember my bad, or my good?" He suddenly narrowed his eyes, approached Ning Duo, and asked narrowly.
Ning Duo backed away slightly, and his breath was short for a moment: "My master is right, you are clever and good at deceiving people!"
Yuan Qinghang chuckled, and stepped back a little: "Xiao Xianjun Ning has a big heart, he must have forgotten those trivial things, how can he be as narrow-minded as Brother Hong?"
Ning Duo clenched his silver teeth tightly, and looked at him, his black pupils seemed as black as a deep ancient pool.
After a long while, he said coldly: "Which of us is older and who is younger, it is not yet known. Don't always call me Xiaoxianjun."
Yuan Qinghang smiled and said: "I am eighteen years old this year, and I was born in Liuyue. What about you?"
Ning Duo's expression obviously relaxed: "I am the same age as you, but I was born in February."
Yuan Qinghang clapped his hands in disappointment: "Hey!"
Can't you call yourself brother in the future?Pity.
But when it comes to mental age, I'm already 27 or [-], obviously ten years older than the hero!
Behind the rocks, not far away, the faint voices of boys and girls came. Although the environment was harsh, young people always found fun quickly when they got together.
Some people gathered together to make a noise, as if they were playing dice; some female nuns were laughing softly, their clear and gentle voices were soft;
Li Ji and a group of fellow apprentices leaned head to head, as if showing off some newly learned spells;
Chang Yuan'er was sitting with two younger junior sisters from Lingwu Hall, someone said something, Chang Yuan'er blushed suddenly, and jumped up as if to poke at each other's armpits.
Yuan Qinghang smiled and looked at it for a while, then bent down, like a magic trick, two small wine cups appeared in the palm of his hand, the color was like beautiful jade, and the white bottle was blue.
He poured two glasses of fruit wine and lit them up at Ning Duo: "Do you want to try it?"
Ning Duo silently accepted it.
Yuan Qinghang looked at him in awe: "Do you drink a lot? How much will you get drunk?"
Ning Duo closed his eyes slightly, his eyelashes cast a beautiful shadow under the eyelids in the faint light of the dancing fire: "I don't know... I haven't tried it."
Yuan Qinghang was stunned: "Have you ever drunk?"
Ning Duo said indifferently: "When I was in Shennong Valley, I was an outer disciple, so I didn't have much chance to drink alcohol. After joining the Cangqiong Sect, the rules of the master's sect are even stricter."
Yuan Qinghang became sympathetic and filled another cup for him: "Come on, try again. Don't drink it all at once, taste it slowly with the tip of your tongue."
Ning Duo slowly raised his cup, took a sip gracefully, and took another sip.
Yuan Qinghang's eyes sparkled: "how is it?"
Ning Duo frowned: "It's spicy, it tastes like smoke in your throat, what's there to drink?"
Yuan Qinghang patted his thigh: "Oh, you don't understand! Slowly experience the mellow aroma of the fermented spirit fruit, and aftertaste, from the tip of the tongue to the throat, is it slowly returning to the sweetness after the spicy taste?"
Ning Duo's handsome and jade-like face began to glow slightly warm red: "...it seems to be."
Yuan Qinghang said triumphantly: "This kind of fruit wine has a light taste, it's best for you to taste it first. I'll test your drinking capacity tonight, if you can drink it, I'll take you to taste other wines next time."
Ning Duo squinted at him: "Where to try it?"
"Outside pavilions, fishing boats on the river, and wine shops, there are good wines everywhere." Yuan Qinghang was beaming with joy, and poured him another glass.
"Once, Uncle Ji took me out to play, and I met a boatman by accident. The boatman was a good cook. The white perch with reed flowers just caught in the river was killed, and it was marinated in rice wine with shredded ginger and scallions for a while. Steamed in a small stove on the boat, paired with their homemade rice wine, fresh fish and wine, it is a peerless delicacy!"
Ning Duo let out a soft "Oh" and said flatly, "With your younger brother?"
Yuan Qinghang smiled and shook his head: "Ten years ago, after I said goodbye to you, I also separated from him."
Ning Duo was startled: "Why?"
Yuan Qinghang hugged his knees, leaned against the mountain wall behind him, and looked into the distance.
The cliff on the opposite side is towering, the indigo-colored mountain body shows a blurred dark black, the sky above the head is extremely far separated by the ancient formation, a bright moon is as white as a disk, huge and lonely...
Yuan Qinghang said: "The one who appeared at the inn that year was the right protector of our demon sect, Ji Banxia."
Ning Duo nodded: "That's the guy just now."
"Well, he is my other master. He taught me all my skills." Yuan Qinghang smiled softly, "When I went back that day, he took me away."
He was a little bit disappointed: "Di Hong still lives with his mother, so in the past ten years, he and I have actually grown a lot different."
Ning Duo slowly raised the white jade cup and took another sip.
After a while, he said in a low voice: "I am the same. I also became a member of the Cangqiong Sect from that day on."
Yuan Qinghang said silently in his heart: "So that's the case."
It was getting more and more lively outside, many young disciples were drinking, some were gossiping loudly about various sects, and some were enthusiastically drawing swords to learn from each other.
Only by this small sheltered mountain rock, two people quietly drinking wine and eating meat, the faint scent of spirit fruit wine mixed with the slightly burnt meat smell, a smell of fireworks in the world.
Ning Duo suddenly said, "Why didn't you ask my master why he accepted me as an apprentice?"
Yuan Qinghang was stunned: "Isn't it because I saw your aptitude against the sky, and I was happy to see you?"
Ning Duo shook his head: "My master... knew me in the first place."
Yuan Qinghang was shocked: "What?"
"He fostered me in Shennong Valley since he was a child, and entrusted his good friend Mu Qinghui to take care of me. It wasn't until I was captured in an accident that he was so scared that he took me back."
Yuan Qinghang listened blankly, confused: "Then who is he to you?!"
Looking at Ning Duo's silent face, he quickly waved his hand again: "It's okay if it's not convenient to tell the secret, I'll just ask casually."
Ning Duo said indifferently: "Because the rebellious and notorious Xianmen sect who everyone shouted and beat, Ning Wanfeng, the former first disciple of the Cangqiong Sect, is my uncle."
Yuan Qinghang's head buzzed, and he felt as if a thunder had hit his ear.
What?The person who was said to have personally killed his fellow disciples and his uncle Yuan Zuoyi was actually Ning Duo's uncle? !
Yuan Qinghang thought for a while and hesitated: "What about your biological parents?"
Ning Duo said: "My father and my uncle were children from ordinary peasant families when they were young. They fled together when they encountered a famine, but they were separated. My uncle happened to meet the Supreme Master of the Sky Sect and was accepted into the sect, but my father was No luck."
Yuan Qinghang said softly: "What happened to him?"
Ning Duo said: "He lived among the people and struggled hard to survive. It was a very hard life. Fortunately, he met a girl in the village who fell in love with me, she was my mother. The two became married, and after that, I was born. "
Yuan Qinghang said: "Ah, that is also very lucky."
Ning Duo shook his head: "Not long after I was born, the village encountered a great plague. For a while, all the nearby villages were empty, and a large number of people died."
"After my uncle joined the Cangqiong Sect, he has been looking for his lost brother. But the world is so big, how can it be so easy? When I finally found it, my parents had already been infected with the poisonous plague, and I only had time to see him." The last side."
Yuan Qinghang asked: "Then your uncle took you away?"
Ning Duo had no expression on his stern face: "Well, not long after that, something happened to him."
Yuan Qinghang let out an "ah", somehow, felt strange in his heart.
Just now he has worked so hard to find his elder brother's orphan, and he hasn't settled down properly yet, why did he suddenly take action to assassinate his fellow sect, causing such a huge disaster?
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Then now, none of your teachers know your identity?"
"I don't know." Ning Duo frowned slightly, "Including Shang Lang."
Yuan Qinghang was slightly stunned: "Why did you tell me? Are you not afraid that I will say it at will?"
Ning Duo sat upright, looking at the starry sky in the distance.
After a long while he answered irrelevant questions: "Would you hate me? My uncle...has harmed your relatives."
Yuan Qinghang thought for a while, and said frankly: "To be honest, I don't have any impression of my uncle, and I haven't even seen a portrait."
After all, it was worn.
Although he has lived here for ten years, and seems to have fully accepted and integrated everything here, but when it comes to the famous big devil uncle, and his parents, they still seem to be separated by a layer of veil.
Not to mention that there will be no feelings of hatred, or any thoughts of revenge.
The two were silent, when Li Qinghong's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Senior brother?"
Yuan Qing, Hang and Ning Duo turned their heads together.
Li Qinghong poked his head out from the rock behind: "Everyone is looking for you."
Immediately afterwards, Shang Lang's head popped out from behind the rock, and he shouted enthusiastically: "What are you two cats doing here, come out quickly. Mr. Yuwen is here to visit, and he wants to call everyone to have a night chat and drink."
……
The thin and tall man still didn't give up, and said bitterly: "If something happens to you in the future, don't blame our Mu family for not helping you!"
Yuan Qinghang said lightly: "It is a favor to help, and it is duty not to help."
Standing behind him, Li Qinghong slightly raised his eyebrows at the tall and thin man from an angle that was invisible to everyone, his eyes were full of provocation and sarcasm.
When the tall and thin man saw it, he was furious and gritted his teeth in a low voice to Mu Jiarong: "That bitch did it on purpose, son, be careful, I always think he has bad intentions for you."

He grabbed a large pile of food in front of him, and ran to Ning Duo: "Okay, I'll share it with you."
There is already a resentful woman over there, if you don't care about it, sooner or later there will be resentment around here, and ice will form on the top of the mountain.
He even had a strange feeling that if he really didn't feed a few mouthfuls, this person would not eat for a whole night, and would rather be hungry!
... This platform on the mountainside occupies a large area, with layers upon layers. There are about two or three layers for camping and short rest.
Yuan Qinghang pulled Ning Duo to find a big rock.
There is a slightly concave hole behind the big rock, shrinking in the back, you can look at the starry sky in front, and hide from the strong wind in the back, which is quite comfortable and quiet.
He moved a few stones around, built a simple small table, put the barbecue meat, mushroom soup, and a bottle of fruit wine sent by Li Ji on it, and sat down cross-legged .
Looking at Ning Duo who was motionless and standing with his hands behind his back, he sighed.
"Ning Xianjun, I know that you only hold the sword in your hand and stay away from the kitchen. But it's all set up properly, so I can't ask me to feed you with my own hands."
Ning Duo glanced at him silently, finally lifted the hem of his clothes lightly, and sat beside him.
Yuan Qinghang rubbed his fingers, lit a bunch of small flame spells, heated up a few skewers of charred barbecue, and then handed them to his mouth thoughtfully: "Come on, if you really want someone to feed you, you can Not impossible."
Ning Duo lowered his eyes to look, his eyes were gloomy: "Have you always been like this?"
Yuan Qinghang asked in confusion: "How has it always been?"
"First he was extremely bad to people, and then he suddenly became nice to that person." He said calmly, biting a piece of cooked meat of spirit beasts gently, chewing slowly, "For children, this little bit is good. , is enough to make him grateful and determined."
Yuan Qinghang blinked.
Hehe, dare to talk to Li Qinghong, this person listens to everything.
"When Ning Xiaoxian was young, did he remember my bad, or my good?" He suddenly narrowed his eyes, approached Ning Duo, and asked narrowly.
Ning Duo backed away slightly, and his breath was short for a moment: "My master is right, you are clever and good at deceiving people!"
Yuan Qinghang chuckled, and stepped back a little: "Xiao Xianjun Ning has a big heart, he must have forgotten those trivial things, how can he be as narrow-minded as Brother Hong?"
Ning Duo clenched his silver teeth tightly, and looked at him, his black pupils seemed as black as a deep ancient pool.
After a long while, he said coldly: "Which of us is older and who is younger, it is not yet known. Don't always call me Xiaoxianjun."
Yuan Qinghang smiled and said: "I am eighteen years old this year, and I was born in Liuyue. What about you?"
Ning Duo's expression obviously relaxed: "I am the same age as you, but I was born in February."
Yuan Qinghang clapped his hands in disappointment: "Hey!"
Can't you call yourself brother in the future?Pity.
But when it comes to mental age, I'm already 27 or [-], obviously ten years older than the hero!
Behind the rocks, not far away, the faint voices of boys and girls came. Although the environment was harsh, young people always found fun quickly when they got together.
Some people gathered together to make a noise, as if they were playing dice; some female nuns were laughing softly, their clear and gentle voices were soft;
Li Ji and a group of fellow apprentices leaned head to head, as if showing off some newly learned spells;
Chang Yuan'er was sitting with two younger junior sisters from Lingwu Hall, someone said something, Chang Yuan'er blushed suddenly, and jumped up as if to poke at each other's armpits.
Yuan Qinghang smiled and looked at it for a while, then bent down, like a magic trick, two small wine cups appeared in the palm of his hand, the color was like beautiful jade, and the white bottle was blue.
He poured two glasses of fruit wine and lit them up at Ning Duo: "Do you want to try it?"
Ning Duo silently accepted it.
Yuan Qinghang looked at him in awe: "Do you drink a lot? How much will you get drunk?"
Ning Duo closed his eyes slightly, his eyelashes cast a beautiful shadow under the eyelids in the faint light of the dancing fire: "I don't know... I haven't tried it."
Yuan Qinghang was stunned: "Have you ever drunk?"
Ning Duo said indifferently: "When I was in Shennong Valley, I was an outer disciple, so I didn't have much chance to drink alcohol. After joining the Cangqiong Sect, the rules of the master's sect are even stricter."
Yuan Qinghang became sympathetic and filled another cup for him: "Come on, try again. Don't drink it all at once, taste it slowly with the tip of your tongue."
Ning Duo slowly raised his cup, took a sip gracefully, and took another sip.
Yuan Qinghang's eyes sparkled: "how is it?"
Ning Duo frowned: "It's spicy, it tastes like smoke in your throat, what's there to drink?"
Yuan Qinghang patted his thigh: "Oh, you don't understand! Slowly experience the mellow aroma of the fermented spirit fruit, and aftertaste, from the tip of the tongue to the throat, is it slowly returning to the sweetness after the spicy taste?"
Ning Duo's handsome and jade-like face began to glow slightly warm red: "...it seems to be."
Yuan Qinghang said triumphantly: "This kind of fruit wine has a light taste, it's best for you to taste it first. I'll test your drinking capacity tonight, if you can drink it, I'll take you to taste other wines next time."
Ning Duo squinted at him: "Where to try it?"
"Outside pavilions, fishing boats on the river, and wine shops, there are good wines everywhere." Yuan Qinghang was beaming with joy, and poured him another glass.
"Once, Uncle Ji took me out to play, and I met a boatman by accident. The boatman was a good cook. The white perch with reed flowers just caught in the river was killed, and it was marinated in rice wine with shredded ginger and scallions for a while. Steamed in a small stove on the boat, paired with their homemade rice wine, fresh fish and wine, it is a peerless delicacy!"
Ning Duo let out a soft "Oh" and said flatly, "With your younger brother?"
Yuan Qinghang smiled and shook his head: "Ten years ago, after I said goodbye to you, I also separated from him."
Ning Duo was startled: "Why?"
Yuan Qinghang hugged his knees, leaned against the mountain wall behind him, and looked into the distance.
The cliff on the opposite side is towering, the indigo-colored mountain body shows a blurred dark black, the sky above the head is extremely far separated by the ancient formation, a bright moon is as white as a disk, huge and lonely...
Yuan Qinghang said: "The one who appeared at the inn that year was the right protector of our demon sect, Ji Banxia."
Ning Duo nodded: "That's the guy just now."
"Well, he is my other master. He taught me all my skills." Yuan Qinghang smiled softly, "When I went back that day, he took me away."
He was a little bit disappointed: "Di Hong still lives with his mother, so in the past ten years, he and I have actually grown a lot different."
Ning Duo slowly raised the white jade cup and took another sip.
After a while, he said in a low voice: "I am the same. I also became a member of the Cangqiong Sect from that day on."
Yuan Qinghang said silently in his heart: "So that's the case."
It was getting more and more lively outside, many young disciples were drinking, some were gossiping loudly about various sects, and some were enthusiastically drawing swords to learn from each other.
Only by this small sheltered mountain rock, two people quietly drinking wine and eating meat, the faint scent of spirit fruit wine mixed with the slightly burnt meat smell, a smell of fireworks in the world.
Ning Duo suddenly said, "Why didn't you ask my master why he accepted me as an apprentice?"
Yuan Qinghang was stunned: "Isn't it because I saw your aptitude against the sky, and I was happy to see you?"
Ning Duo shook his head: "My master... knew me in the first place."
Yuan Qinghang was shocked: "What?"
"He fostered me in Shennong Valley since he was a child, and entrusted his good friend Mu Qinghui to take care of me. It wasn't until I was captured in an accident that he was so scared that he took me back."
Yuan Qinghang listened blankly, confused: "Then who is he to you?!"
Looking at Ning Duo's silent face, he quickly waved his hand again: "It's okay if it's not convenient to tell the secret, I'll just ask casually."
Ning Duo said indifferently: "Because the rebellious and notorious Xianmen sect who everyone shouted and beat, Ning Wanfeng, the former first disciple of the Cangqiong Sect, is my uncle."
Yuan Qinghang's head buzzed, and he felt as if a thunder had hit his ear.
What?The person who was said to have personally killed his fellow disciples and his uncle Yuan Zuoyi was actually Ning Duo's uncle? !
Yuan Qinghang thought for a while and hesitated: "What about your biological parents?"
Ning Duo said: "My father and my uncle were children from ordinary peasant families when they were young. They fled together when they encountered a famine, but they were separated. My uncle happened to meet the Supreme Master of the Sky Sect and was accepted into the sect, but my father was No luck."
Yuan Qinghang said softly: "What happened to him?"
Ning Duo said: "He lived among the people and struggled hard to survive. It was a very hard life. Fortunately, he met a girl in the village who fell in love with me, she was my mother. The two became married, and after that, I was born. "
Yuan Qinghang said: "Ah, that is also very lucky."
Ning Duo shook his head: "Not long after I was born, the village encountered a great plague. For a while, all the nearby villages were empty, and a large number of people died."
"After my uncle joined the Cangqiong Sect, he has been looking for his lost brother. But the world is so big, how can it be so easy? When I finally found it, my parents had already been infected with the poisonous plague, and I only had time to see him." The last side."
Yuan Qinghang asked: "Then your uncle took you away?"
Ning Duo had no expression on his stern face: "Well, not long after that, something happened to him."
Yuan Qinghang let out an "ah", somehow, felt strange in his heart.
Just now he has worked so hard to find his elder brother's orphan, and he hasn't settled down properly yet, why did he suddenly take action to assassinate his fellow sect, causing such a huge disaster?
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Then now, none of your teachers know your identity?"
"I don't know." Ning Duo frowned slightly, "Including Shang Lang."
Yuan Qinghang was slightly stunned: "Why did you tell me? Are you not afraid that I will say it at will?"
Ning Duo sat upright, looking at the starry sky in the distance.
After a long while he answered irrelevant questions: "Would you hate me? My uncle...has harmed your relatives."
Yuan Qinghang thought for a while, and said frankly: "To be honest, I don't have any impression of my uncle, and I haven't even seen a portrait."
After all, it was worn.
Although he has lived here for ten years, and seems to have fully accepted and integrated everything here, but when it comes to the famous big devil uncle, and his parents, they still seem to be separated by a layer of veil.
Not to mention that there will be no feelings of hatred, or any thoughts of revenge.
The two were silent, when Li Qinghong's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Senior brother?"
Yuan Qing, Hang and Ning Duo turned their heads together.
Li Qinghong poked his head out from the rock behind: "Everyone is looking for you."
Immediately afterwards, Shang Lang's head popped out from behind the rock, and he shouted enthusiastically: "What are you two cats doing here, come out quickly. Mr. Yuwen is here to visit, and he wants to call everyone to have a night chat and drink."
