Bright Moon and Cold Thousand Mountains

The small island named "Watching the Moon" was actually much larger than the silhouette Liu Shiqi had glimpsed on the boat. He followed behind Feng Tingyun, and followed him step by step across the sandy beach and path, and through the A dizzying grove almost overwhelmed by the scent of flowers.

He looked around, those trees seemed to be living things, they were still in the predetermined position before, but when he looked back, he couldn't see them.Liu Shiqi frowned and stopped unconsciously.

Sensing his movement, Feng Tingyun turned his head and said, "Follow me. This is a labyrinth, built according to the Qimen Dunjia technique, if you get trapped, even I won't be able to find out where you are."

After hearing this, Liu Shiqi didn't dare to be negligent any longer, and stuck tightly behind Feng Tingyun.

He couldn't remember how Feng Tingyun left, and before Liu Shiqi could react, an open area appeared in front of them after walking for a short time.

The sandy beach of Wangyue Island is silver and white, but there are waterside pavilions built in the woods that are very different from the beach scenery. The pavilions and pavilions are very exquisite, and a string of small wind chimes hangs under the cornices, which jingle when the sea breeze blows.A small pavilion behind the nine-turn corridor is independent, hidden behind the plantain, looming, and quite poetic in the south of the Yangtze River.

Feng Tingyun led him through the corridor until he came to the pavilion. Liu Shiqi looked up and saw that besides the name plate of "Qingfeng" hanging above the pavilion, there was also a plaque with the words "Wei Yu Jiangnan" on it, signed "Geng Chen is pregnant in the end of the world in July", and not many clues can be seen.

The pavilion was hung with moon-white gauze curtains, there seemed to be a figure in it, Liu Shiqi couldn't see clearly, but his breathing was relieved by the vague fragrance of flowers.

Feng Tingyun stood in front of the pavilion but didn't go in. He just bowed his hands respectfully and saluted: "Master, the apprentice is back."

The next moment, the figures in the pavilion stood up and gathered their skirts, getting closer and closer to them.

A slender hand lifted up the veil, that hand was so white that it was almost the same color as the veil, soft and boneless, Liu Shiqi only glanced at it, but couldn't take his eyes off——

Half a month ago, Liu Shiqi never dreamed that the "master" that Feng Tingyun said seemed to have great powers was actually a young-looking woman.

She wasn't stunning, but people almost forgot everything in an instant, and just wanted to stare at her intently.She was dressed in a goose yellow dress, but she didn't show any vivacity or frivolity. She had willow eyebrows and almond eyes, and her brilliance was restrained. At first glance, she couldn't tell her age, but it seemed convincing to say that she was a [-]-year-old girl.

Feng Tingyun was still standing on one side and bent slightly, she glanced at Feng Tingyun lightly, her voice was not as tender as a girl's, but was very transparent: "It's good to be back, have you found someone?"

Feng Tingyun said: "That's him."

The woman in yellow didn't ask any more questions, but looked at Liu Shiqi. Maybe Liu Shiqi had been staring at her. After she looked over, a smile suddenly appeared on her indifferent face.This smile is really stingy, but it seems to light up all her emotions, making her fall from the top of the cloud to the fireworks in the world.

She asked, "What's your name?"

Liu Shiqiyi lowered his head, and hesitantly said his real name, the woman said thoughtfully, "Are you Zuo Nian's apprentice?"

Everyone put him and Zuo Nian together.Liu Shiqi was awakened by the name, hurriedly looked away, only nodded silently, and then became anxious——Zuo Nian was to him, first of all a benefactor and secondly a teacher, even though he knew that Zuo Nian was terrible, in those impulsive thoughts After retreating, she still couldn't simply hate him.

The woman in yellow didn't ask any more questions, but said: "Since you are his disciple and escaped again, I heard people say that you are carrying Duxin Pill... As for why you are taken in, probably Tingyun has already told you? You can stay in my Wangyue Island as you like, but if you don’t leave it for nothing, you can exchange it with Duxin Pill.”

Liu Shiqi's mind suddenly became hot, and he almost opened his mouth to say "If I don't give it to you", he was about to speak, when Feng Tingyun winked at him from behind the woman, Liu Shiqi froze in place.

The woman smiled lightly again, as if she had eyes behind her back: "Ting Yun, what do you think he is doing?"

So Feng Tingyun quickly looked at his nose, nose, and mouth, and concentrated on counting the ants on the ground, turning into a stone statue in place, wishing that the sound of panting would disappear immediately.Liu Shiqi suddenly lost his support, and his mood was complicated. Looking at the kindly woman with the eyes of a Bodhisattva in front of him, he really didn't understand why his spine felt chills.

He bowed his head as a gentleman who knew the current affairs: "Du Xin Dan is indeed on me, but I can't give it to anyone at will. Even if I leave the twelfth floor, I am still his disciple. This thing is precious, I don't know you... Do you want it?" What are you going to do with it?"

"Save people." The woman said succinctly, she could hear the meaning behind Shi Qi's pause, and added, "My name is Yi Chunqiu. If you don't mind, just call me Master Yi like everyone else."

Liu Shiqi was silent.

Yi Chunqiu said: "The implication is that as long as you are not his disciple, can you give me things? Why don't you worship me as your teacher, and I will destroy the heaven and earth skills in you and teach you better ones!"

She mentioned it whimsically and softly, but it sounded like a thunderbolt in her ears. Liu Shiqi looked over in disbelief.He briefly lost vigilance due to the fragrance of flowers on Yi Chunqiu's body and the overly peaceful environment. As soon as he raised his head, someone grabbed his pulse door. caught.

There was still a smile on the corner of Yi Chunqiu's mouth, but his fingertips pressed against the critical acupuncture points of his hands. Liu Shiqi sensed her intention and hurriedly said, "No, no! What do you want to do—!"

A gust of cold and true energy forcibly penetrated, Liu Shiqi instinctively wanted to escape, but his body could not move. He cast a look of help to Feng Tingyun, who was still standing there like a sculpture, indifferent to all this.For the first time in his life, he experienced the desperation that made the sky not respond and the earth not work. Staring at Yi Chunqiu's plain and beautiful face, his eyes were red.

Unexpectedly, Yi Chunqiu stopped suddenly, she let out a "huh" and frowned slightly, "Cold poison?"

Liu Shiqi's good impression of her had been completely wiped out, cold sweat overflowed from the corners of his forehead, he was panting heavily and couldn't speak, and only stared at Yi Chunqiu.The woman looked at him as if she was looking at a small animal that she allowed to play with, and her tone finally showed the same frivolity as Feng Tingyun:

"It seems that you have suffered a lot. However, your internal strength is far deeper than I imagined. With the cold poison these days, there is no slight discomfort on your face... But the cold poison is still there after all. If you don't think about it as soon as possible Get rid of it, you guess it happens day by day...how long can I live?"

Liu Shiqi stiffened his neck and almost blurted out "Death is death". When he was angry with everyone, he thought of Wendi inappropriately.

That night in the cave of Xixiu Mountain, Wendi was very close to him, and he smelled the fragrance of medicine that had been on Wendi's body for many years. His eyes were bright in the dark, and he said to him with a relieved smile: "I will find you."

... The idea of ​​simply going to die is suddenly hard to say.

If he died silently on a deserted island or simply submerged in the sea due to the cold poison, and could not be found after hearing the flute, would he blame him for not waiting for him?

That dark night in Xixiu Mountain is the last, will Wen Di be sad?

Seeing his wavering for a moment, Yi Chunqiu whispered softly: "Let's make a deal, my apprentice will help you get rid of the cold poison and keep your body healthy, and you will give me a Crossing Heart Pill. One life for another, that's fair enough." Is it?"

This time Liu Shiqi didn't refute directly, he pinched his veins and could hardly breathe.The cold that Yi Chunqiu nailed in just now seems to be still penetrating along the meridians, directly arousing the aftermath of the cold poison. In midsummer, the sun was shining on the island, Liu Shiqi tried his best not to kneel or squat down, it was already so cold. Fall into the ice cave.

The blood color faded from his face in an instant, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Save...whom?"

Yi Chunqiu sighed, didn't answer his words, and said without turning his head: "You save him."

Feng Tingyun, who was about to turn into a stone statue, moved in response to the sound. He wrapped Liu Shiqi's shoulder with one hand, and let most of his weight fall on him without making a sound. Go to a semi-open water pavilion next to the pavilion.He ruthlessly kicked Liu Shiqi's knee, forcing him to kneel and sit in it, and whispered, "I told you not to mess with her."

Then, under Liu Shiqi's surprised gaze, as if he hadn't said anything, he sat down in front of Liu Shiqi, and unbuttoned his clothes, revealing a large thin and pale chest.

Feng Tingyun's gaze wandered around for a while without any emotion, and before Liu Shiqi could stop in a daze, he raised his palm and stuck it to Liu Shiqi's Qihai acupoint through the middle coat that hadn't come off yet.

"you……"

Before the words could be spoken, Liu Shiqi suddenly felt a warm current protruding in, and then stretched his teeth and claws along the veins to surround the cold place all day long. He couldn't help sighing, as if the ice energy that had been frozen in the internal organs all this time Quickly melted with this warm current.

Sensing this change, Feng Tingyun raised the corners of his lips, and slowly opened the meridians stagnated by cold poison for him.Originally, this job was very dangerous, but in Feng Tingyun's hands, it seemed like an easy job that wasn't worth mentioning.

"One mouthful can't make you fat, you need to take your time." Yi Chunqiu just walked up behind them and said with a smile, "You might as well stay on Moon-Watching Island."

Feng Tingyun immediately withdrew his hand, Liu Shiqi was caught off guard and fell forward, and hurriedly supported the ground so as not to fall on the person in front of him.He pulled up the front of his clothes, Yi Chunqiu stretched out a hand at the right time, and said, "Du Xin Dan."

Liu Shiqi was soft but not hard, not to mention that others had favored him first, he only hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, and said: "If I give it to you, what if he doesn't help me anymore?"

Yi Chunqiu said: "I never break my promise."

He held the jade bottle in his arms, stood up, and said sincerely: "Perhaps the Duxin Pill is not as magical as you imagined? I know people in the Jianghu say it can bring the dead back to life, but I sent the head to keep it on hand. It is impossible to have that kind of miraculous effect because of the cultivation of obsession and it is required to protect the heart veins."

Yi Chunqiu heard that this was from the bottom of his heart, the expression on his face froze for a moment, then quickly regained his composure, and said: "Zuo is worse than now, I really want to save people."

Liu Shiqi: "A heinous person?"

Yi Chunqiu's eyebrows twisted into a small crease: "My master."

At this time, Feng Tingyun who was beside him trembled all over, and said in a rude manner: "Master, the master is hopeless, you can let him go if you let yourself go!"

Yi Chunqiu: "I want to give it a try."

She caught a glimpse of Liu Shiqi's slow movements, twisted his left wrist with one hand, and took out the small jade bottle containing Du Xindan.Yi Chunqiu smiled politely at Liu Shiqi, pulled out the stopper, poured out a pill, and returned the rest to him.

Holding the bright red elixir in Su Bai's hand, Yi Chunqiu stared at the rumored panacea with complicated emotions, then resolutely wrapped it in a veil, turned and left.Liu Shiqiu stopped at the same place, not knowing what to do, but seeing Feng Tingyun committing crimes against him, he stepped in front of Yi Chunqiu: "Master!"

Yi Chunqiu's voice finally had waves: "Get out of the way!"

Feng Tingyun said sadly: "Even if that palm is hit on an immortal, it will kill your soul, let alone his mortal body! Didn't you listen to the words of the master before he died?"

"Presumptuous!" Yi Chunqiu waved one hand, and slapped Feng Tingyun, her back turned to Liu Shiqi, her thin shoulders trembling uncontrollably, "When is it your turn to teach me a lesson?"

Feng Tingyun's eyes were red, and he finally couldn't bear to stand aside.Liu Shiqi witnessed the whole process, and suddenly found that Feng Tingyun, who he always thought he didn't care about everything, was like a son-in-law. expression?

Yi Chunqiu left resolutely, Feng Tingyun hesitated for a long time, and finally followed after gritting his teeth.Before he left, he didn't forget to grab Liu Shiqi's hand and insisted on his company.

Liu Shiqi struggled and said, "What do your own affairs have to do with me? Why are you arresting me!"

Feng Tingyun didn't talk too much with him, and only dragged him a few steps behind Yi Chunqiu, not daring to relax.Seeing that he couldn't get rid of him, Liu Shiqi simply resigned to his fate and stumbled all the way.

As Feng Tingyun said, Wangyue Island is as warm as spring, but Liu Shiqi never imagined that an ice cellar could be set up here.

After bypassing many trees, Feng Tingyun brought him to a stop at the bottom of a hillside. Yi Chunqiu was obsessed with his obsession, and he ignored them all the way, and went straight to open a mechanism.

The sound of "Boom" shook the world, and Liu Shiqi had the illusion that the soil under his feet was also trembling.He saw a door slowly opened at the back of the hillside, followed by a second door, revealing the dark corridor inside, and the cold air rushing out, Liu Shiqi instinctively hugged his arms tightly, and the coolness hit him, but he was still uncomfortable.

Feng Tingyun took off his outer shirt and threw it to Liu Shiqi. He only wore a single shirt and followed Yi Chunqiu in.He didn't know, but he was the only one around, and his curiosity had been aroused, so he couldn't get rid of it so quickly.

He was frightened by the cold air for a moment, wrapped himself tightly with Feng Tingyun's coat, closed his eyes and rushed in.

The woman's slender back was smudged by the candle in her hand. The deeper Liu Shiqi walked, the colder he felt.He followed the faint light all the way to the innermost part.

In the ice room with a radius of ten feet, there was a coffin in it!

But Yi Chunqiu turned a blind eye to the fear of the two young men. She walked over, pressed the mechanism next to the coffin, and waited for it to rise impatiently. The sides were tense, as if she couldn't wait any longer. He touched the edge of the coffin lid, and opened it without any explanation. The heavy coffin lid tilted to one side, making a loud noise in the ice room.

Liu Shiqi cautiously followed Feng Tingyun closer to the place, and found that it was a sarcophagus. It must have been placed in a place with extremely low temperature for a long time, and a layer of ice had formed on the surface, with a deep cold air floating.

The person lying inside was a dead stiff person!

Although the man had gray beard and hair, it could be seen that he was already very old when he died.He looked serene, with his hands on his lower abdomen, his eyes closed tightly, and his expression was not ferocious.But even if it is kind, it is also chilling.

Yi Chunqiu's lips moved, and he called out "Master" softly, and then she picked up the Duxin Pill and was about to pour it into the dead man's mouth.The body was preserved only by low temperature, and she worked hard for a long time, but still couldn't pry open the gap between her teeth. Yi Chunqiu lost his mind in an instant, his chest heaved and fluctuated, and the hands supporting the edge of the sarcophagus were almost stretched out.

"How could this be... Master, how could Master die..."

The voice echoed mournfully, Feng Tingyun couldn't bear to hear it anymore, looked at his fingertips, and said softly: "Master, you clearly know that the Duxin Pill is not a elixir, why are you still persistent?"

The person standing in front of the sarcophagus trembled violently. She seemed to have finally realized that all the things she had done were futile. She lowered her arms dejectedly and still did not look back, as if telling a very distant thing:

"You and I never thought that senior brother would defect. He... Ting Yun and Xingzhou were both injured by him. You went to stop him yourself, but you still received a slap... Liuyang palm, what a domineering internal strength. In the past, senior brother It was once said that Du Xindan can save the lives of those who are hanging by a thread, and also said that on the twelfth floor... the closed disciple of the head of the sect is a child named Wen, and that child has a lot to do with Junior Sister Yu. A prophecy……"

Liu Shiqi was startled, and suddenly raised his head to stare at her back.

And Yi Chunqiu was still muttering to himself: "I should know, I should have known... In this world, there is no such thing as resurrection from the dead. But I refuse to accept it... I have to, I have to wait for the last time." Straw—”

Feng Tingyun knelt down on the ground with a "plop", his back straightened: "Master's condolences."

Yi Chunqiu straightened up, with water marks in the corners of his eyes: "At that time, you were the only one watching over him, what did he tell you?"

Feng Tingyun said word by word: "Before the master died, I asked me to tell you that he was in the same family. He is willing to die in exchange for the cancellation of the grievances between you and the master, and..." deep feeling'."

Liu Shiqi who was on the sidelines couldn't understand anything, but as soon as Feng Tingyun's words fell, Yi Chunqiu, who was standing in the middle of the ancient well like no waves, suddenly collapsed, his feet softened and he sat on the ground with his back against the cold sarcophagus, and lifted him up again. Tears streamed down my face at the beginning.

It was not until many years later that he understood how the Wang Qian'an, whom he had never met before, had concluded the entire fate of the two people for the rest of their lives with just a few words.

The author has something to say:

In fact, Master Yi is a generation taller than Shi Qi and the others (.
