[Liao Zhai + Lu Xiaofeng] Gossip in Jianghu

Baolan thought she could finally have a good night's sleep because she didn't share a room with Lu Xiaofeng.Unexpectedly, she slept until midnight, and the more she slept, the colder it became. It seemed that something icy and penetrating was slowly spreading along her calf to her neck, making her toss and turn, unable to sleep.

Baolan couldn't help shivering, opened her eyes, cold sweat dripped from her forehead.

"Get out of the capital..." Strange and terrifying voices continued to come from behind my ears.

Baolan's body froze, she stretched her right hand towards her neck, she touched something cold and bone-chilling, held it in front of her, and saw it by the moonlight, it turned out to be a piece of black black iron with a faint red light.

The dark iron is clean and smooth, with two bean-sized eyes and a long mouth growing on it. Judging from the expression, it seems that it is trying to make a hideous appearance.But the more Baolan looked at it, the more she felt like the SpongeBob SquarePants in the cartoon.

"Get out of the capital..." That Xuantie was still making a sharp voice.

The corners of Baolan's eyes twitched, and she said, "I'm not even afraid of ghosts now, but I'm still afraid that you'll fail." Saying that, she took out a gourd for trapping demons from under the pillow.

The Xuantie struggled in Baolan's hands, and wanted to attack, Baolan picked up the mahogany sword from the pillow and pressed it on Xuantie, making it unable to move.

"Well... let me go!"

Baolan picked up the gourd and shook it: "Don't let go, I will put you in the gourd, so you can't come out to harm others."

That Xuan Tie seemed to be frightened, his body trembled like chaff, and slowly transformed into the appearance of a girl, begging for mercy: "I...I didn't harm anyone, no...don't take me in."

Looking at the girl in front of her, Baolan wasn't surprised at all, "Shen Qianqian, I didn't look for you, but you delivered it yourself."

Shen Qianqian lay down in front of Baolan and explained: "I...I just don't want to leave Master, so I want to scare you away. I have practiced for thousands of years and have never harmed anyone. If you don't believe me, I will show you my soul."

After finishing speaking, Shen Qianqian turned into a round sphere again, completely white without any impurities.

Baolan knew that what Shen Qianqian said was true, the primordial spirit of monsters was equivalent to the foundation of their cultivation, if they practiced by absorbing human spirit or eating human flesh, the primordial spirit would become darker and darker.If it is practiced by some sorcery, the primordial spirit will become more and more red.And relying on the essence of heaven and earth to practice, the monsters who have never killed people will have their souls as white and clear as Shen Qianqian.

Baolan looked around Shen Qianqian's primordial spirit for a while, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a crack in the middle, so she asked curiously, "Why is there a crack on your primordial spirit?"

Shen Qianqian turned into a human body and said with a bitter face: "It's a long story. I used to practice in the mountains, and I was at ease. But a few months ago, a ferocious monster broke into my den and said to kill me. Take it back and refine it into an ancient sword. My skill is not as good as his, and he injured my soul and lost hundreds of years of practice, so now I look like this kid."

Baolan suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Then why did Ximen Chuuxue say you are Shen Wen's granddaughter?"

"After the monster captured me, he put me in the monster bag that he carried with him, and then traveled around to get the blood essence of the master swordsmith."

Baolan interrupted Shen Qianqian and asked, "Wait, why did the monster take the blood essence of the master swordsmith?"

Shen Qianqian raised her head and asked back: "The little Daoist, did you hear the story about the general Mo Xie forging a sword and Mo Xie throwing a furnace?"

Baolan nodded, and suddenly realized: "The monster wants to follow the story of the general Mo Xie and use the blood of the master swordsmith to forge a sword that is unparalleled in the world."

"Yes."

Baolan couldn't help sighing secretly, it's terrible to be uneducated.Although the bones of the human body contain sulfur, phosphorus and calcium that may improve smelting, but blood essence has a fart use, and for that ingredient, just put a pig in it, it is useful for killing people.

Shen Qianqian continued: "That day at the Shen family, the monster became addicted to killing and torturing. He killed eighteen members of the Shen family in a row, and was caught by the master who came over by chance. My master's sword skills have approached the gods. I actually hurt the monster so badly, I saw that the monster was injured and distracted, so I escaped from the monster bag in a panic."

"But why don't you go back to where you were originally staying, instead pestering Ximen Chuuxue?" Lu Xiaofeng pushed open the door and walked in slowly.

Baolan was stunned, "Lu Xiaoji! What are you doing outside my door at midnight?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled meanly, "The moon is dark and the wind is high, and there are monsters in this inn. I'm so afraid that I can't sleep at night. I wanted to ask the Taoist priest for protection, but I happened to see a good show."

Lu Xiaofeng will not admit it, he has been in the Sapphire Roof for three or four hours.He originally thought that since Baolan had seen through the monster's real body, the monster might come to harm her when he was alert.Although the little Taoist's mana was not bad, but his reaction was slow and his vigilance was too low. He was fidgeting in the house, so he just stood guard on the roof, but he guessed it right.

But he guessed the beginning correctly, not the ending.

Baolan rolled her eyes, ignoring him.

Shen Qianqian replied honestly: "The monster is very afraid of the sword energy on Master. I haven't recovered my primordial spirit yet, and I will inevitably be caught when I go back, so I must stay by Master's side shamelessly."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled, "To be able to stay with that piece of ice Ximen Chuuxue, you must have put in a lot of effort, right?"

Shen Qianqian shook her head, "Master, he is not an ice cube, he is only focused on the way of swordsmanship, and has no time to care about ordinary things. I started to pretend to be Shen Wen's granddaughter, crying and wanting to stay with Master, but although he treated me I have some sympathy, but I just want to entrust me to other people. I know the master's swordsmanship, so I secretly learned his swordsmanship and pretended to use it unintentionally. He thought I was very talented, so he accepted me as his apprentice. In the beginning, I stayed by Master's side just to avoid being hunted down. But after a long time, I felt Master's profound attainments in the way of swordsmanship. Now I really want to be Master's apprentice and learn swordsmanship so that I won't be afraid of those evil monsters in the future. .”

Baolan breathed a sigh of relief, and took away the mahogany sword that was on Shen Qianqian's body. Shen Qianqian's words were sincere and sincere, and what he said was just right, so he probably wasn't lying.

"Qianqian, what are you doing here?"

Outside the door was dressed in white, and the one black as ink was Ximen Chuuxue.

Shen Qianqian showed deer-like eyes, looked at Lu Xiaofeng and Baolan pitifully, and secretly begged them not to expose her true identity.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled mischievously, "Qianqian is actually..."

Shen Qianqian's heart hung in midair.

"She's actually hungry, so she came here to find something to eat."

Only then did Shen Qianqian's heart return to its original place.

Ximen Chuuxue frowned slightly and said, "Have you finished practicing the sword a hundred times that I punished you?"

Shen Qianqian said nonchalantly: "The practice is over, Master." She came here to scare Baolan only after finishing the practice.

"Don't go back to bed after practice?" Ximen Chuuxue waved to Shen Qianqian.

Shen Qianqian's round body immediately rolled off Baolan's bed, and trotted to Ximen Chuuxue.

Completely ignoring the other two, Ximen Chuuxue took Shen Qianqian and left.

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard, thoughtfully said: "Ximen Chuuxue seems to be a bit human."

Baolan nodded in agreement.Since Shen Qianqian had no evil intentions, it might not be a bad thing to let her stay by Ximen Chuuxue's side.

Ximen Chuuxue brought Shen Qianqian into the room, but his face turned a little blue. He walked back and forth in front of Shen Qianqian for a few steps before he said in embarrassment: "Master knows you are still young, but you are a girl after all. , you should know that men and women are different, and don't go in and out of men's rooms casually at night."

Although Shen Qianqian wanted to laugh in her heart, she still pretended to be innocent on the surface: "But I'm in Master's room right now, isn't Master a man?"

Ximen Chuixue: "..."

The author has something to say: The hard-working mother said: There are two more tonight.

Hey, why didn't you hear the applause?
