Listen to the king's order

Lu Ming put his hand down, and the smile on the corner of his mouth also tightened: "Master, where did you go just now?"

Although Jiang Qichen saw that Lu Ming looked a little strange, he didn't take it to heart. He pointed to the table beside him and motioned for Lu Ming to push himself over: "I'm about to talk to you."

Lu Ming pushed Jiang Qichen to the table, poured him a cup of tea, and was about to squat down to listen to him again, but Jiang Qichen held his hand. He pointed to the stool beside him: "Sit down and listen to me. There are two things right now. One thing, first, Pei Tianxiao has already published the list on Jianghu, and in the next few days there will be an additional test to fill the gap of the top ten masters. Regarding this, it is basically consistent with our previous expectations. Pei Tianxiao and the people behind him, It is very likely that they will take this opportunity to insert their own forces."

Lu Ming's face darkened when he heard this. This was indeed the same as what they had imagined before, but they didn't expect Pei Tianxiao to move so fast.

"Recently, so many things happened almost at the same time. He is so impatient at this time, I don't know if he has any plans."

Jiang Qichen picked up the cup on the table and took a sip: "This is the second thing I want to tell you. Earlier, you asked Jing Zhi to check whether Pei Tianxiao's people were planted in the 'Shadow', and now the results have been obtained." gone."

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, as if suddenly interested: "How did it turn out?"

Jiang Qichen said: "Guess what, this inner ghost has been lurking in the 'shadow' for five years."

"What?" Lu Ming frowned suddenly. The selection of "Shadow" is very strict. Before entering the school, one must check one's life experience clearly. It is impossible to enter without leaking.

Lu Ming said: "Shadow has only been established for five years, and there is someone at that time...who is it?"

"Human, he was already dead when he found out. But Jing Zhi moved very quickly, and he died before he could ruin his appearance."

Lu Ming looked at Jiang Qichen suspiciously, and had some thoughts in his heart: "His appearance is very special?"

"Well, guess what."

"Like those women in the underground palace, they don't look like people from the Central Plains, are they from the Northern Territory?"

Jiang Qichen nodded: "This person has been stationed in Xichen, and he belongs to Qingfeng. He should have given his black shadow hair to Pei Tianxiao early in the morning, and let Pei Tianxiao use it to identify the 'shadow' at the Jianghu meeting. He himself later I went to apply for one, and I did it very carefully, and the time interval was very long, so I didn't find him at first, but fortunately, Jingzhi and Qingfeng managed to find him."

"So, the people in the underground palace buried their own people in the 'shadow' early on. They may not know who the real manipulator behind the 'shadow' is, but they have long been prepared to use the 'shadow' as a pawn or pawn in their own plan. Said they were scapegoats. So, they are the ones hiding behind Pei Tianxiao?"

Jiang Qichen said, "Whether it's them or not, we'll find out soon."

Lu Ming understood, and immediately understood what Jiang Qichen meant.If the ghost in the shadow is not enough to prove the relationship between Pei Tianxiao and those people in the underground palace.Then, there will definitely be people from them in the next Jianghu ranking test.

But if it is really them, what is their purpose?Practicing yin and evil skills and creating evil spirits are exactly the same as what the Golden Lotus Sect did a hundred years ago.If they had mastered the evil skills, they wouldn't need to cooperate with Pei Tianxiao to overshadow the world with one hand. What role did Pei Tianxiao play in the middle?Is it all for the Mahayana exercises in the life talisman?

And those people from the Northern Territory, how did they get involved in it?

Jiang Qichen saw that Lu Ming was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't speak for a long time, so he patted his leg lightly: "What are you thinking about? These things are intricate and complicated, and the secrets are not something you can figure out with a little brain."

Lu Ming was taken aback for a moment, no matter what he heard, he felt that Jiang Qichen's inner and outer spoiling would overwhelm him.

Must be dizzy...

Lu Ming settled down: "Master, if Pei Tianxiao has any requests, I'll go for you, okay?"

"Not good." Jiang Qichen tilted his head, and his eyes fell on the layers of gauze curtains. He suddenly remembered Sha Sang's eyes of obvious surprise and greed when he looked at Lu Ming. The dissatisfaction in those eyes was just like these gauze The tent wrapped around his heart round and round.Sha Sang showed his desire for Lu Ming so bluntly, and he definitely wouldn't just let it go.

Lu Ming must be by his side all the time so that he can rest assured: "Didn't I say before that you will go wherever I go. The reverse is also the same." After speaking, Jiang Qichen felt that this was a bit strange, but what was the specific reason for the blame? He couldn't say anything, so he added another sentence: "You child, if I don't follow you, you will make yourself look like a human being, which is always annoying."

Originally, Lu Ming was still stuck in Jiang Qichen's sentence "Where am I going, where are you going?", thinking about what the reverse is, but before he could reverse it, he heard Jiang Qichen add another sentence.But after all, he didn't hear the concern and a little cover-up mixed in those words, and all his attention was on "not worrying".

The injured hand was clenched tightly, and Lu Ming's face, which had just recovered from his recovery, instantly turned pale again.

Lord, what do you mean, but you think I'm burdensome?

That's right, Jiang Qichen already had a lot of things to think about, and his health was not good.I bumped my head here and there every three days, didn't help him to share his worries, but instead made him worry all the time, really messing him up.

Lu Ming felt that he had been by Jiang Qichen's side for so many years, and everything he had learned had been fed to the dogs.Not to mention the slightest improvement, but also regressed to the point where someone needs to take care of it.If this continues, Jiang Qichen will one day regret that he picked up a useless thing from the side of the mountain, bore him and tire of him, and then... and then lose him, right...

With a shock, the tooth marks on his wrists became unseasonably hot again, as if an invisible heat wave rushed straight to Lu Ming's chest and lungs, and a fishy sweetness rose from his throat.

Lu Ming was startled, seeing that Jiang Qichen was staring at the gauze curtain on the bed and not falling on him, he hurriedly turned his back and poured himself a cup of tea, swallowed it together with a mouth full of blood without thinking.

The tea was slightly cold, and Lu Ming drank it in a hurry. He choked on the water before he swallowed a few mouthfuls. He leaned over the table, covered his mouth and coughed heart-piercingly.

Jiang Qichen didn't expect that his own words had set off a turbulent wave in that man's papery heart. He only heard a few violent coughs coming from beside him that he tried his best to restrain but still couldn't stop.

Frowning, he stretched out his hand just enough to reach Lu Ming's back, and patted him, complaining, "Why are you choking on your saliva, can't you slow down?"

Lu Ming's cough did a good job of covering up his original pale face, and his whole body was flushed from neck to face.

He waved his hands at Jiang Qichen, then ran to the side and sat down with his hands on his chest, and it took him a while to calm down.

The rut turned behind him, and Jiang Qichen moved to his side bit by bit: "Is it better?" He looked at Lu Ming's face and remembered that he had hardly eaten all day: "Are you hungry, follow me to eat something .”

Lu Ming didn't have any appetite at the moment, his heart was burning with heat, and the herbal tea rolled with blood after he swallowed it.

"I'm not hungry, if Master is hungry, let Jing Xing accompany you."

Seeing him like this, Jiang Qichen couldn't help but feel a little distressed when he finally fell asleep and recovered his blood color after taking a sip of water, but he couldn't help but feel tough when he said: "I have eaten, but you are running around I haven't eaten well after so long, go, follow me to the dining room to have something to eat. After eating, I have to go to see Master."

Lu Ming couldn't resist Jiang Qichen, and was afraid of arousing his suspicion, so he went along with him.

He pushed Jiang Qichen to the dining room, brought himself a bowl of white rice porridge, and thought about Jiang Qichen's illness, so he took a few sour fruits

Give him an appetizer.

Jiang Qichen took the sour fruit, and just looking at it made fluid flow from his mouth.Seeing Lu Ming holding a bowl of white rice porridge drinking again, he thought to himself, this young man in his 20s is just growing up, and his appetite should be amazing. At his age, he would eat three bowls a meal Big rice is not a problem, why Lu Ming just eats so much.Looking at Lu Ming's body again, except for his stature rising upwards, there is almost no horizontal trend in the rest.Just looking at that face, the chin is so sharp that it could poke a hole.

So Jiang Qichen looked around, and after looking for a long time, he found that the dilapidated dining room of Tianyanzong had nothing but porridge and side dishes.Feeling depressed for a while, I thought that when I returned to Jiang's house, Lu Ming would have to make up for it with big fish and meat, so what if I don't grow some meat!

Lu Ming finished his bowl of porridge restlessly. He put down the bowl and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand casually.Looking up, he met Jiang Qichen who was staring deeply into his eyes. He was stunned for a moment, remembering that Jiang Qichen always liked to be tidy, his casual behavior just now would probably make him feel very unclean in the eyes of that person...

Sure enough, he saw Jiang Qichen frowned at him, then took out another silk handkerchief from the front, grabbed his hand to wipe it for him, folded it and put it back.

The place on the back of his hand where Jiang Qichen brushed it felt a burning pain, and Lu Ming felt a little ashamed, but he didn't know that his actions just now in Jiang Qichen's eyes were just another piece of evidence for Lu Ming that he "can't take care of himself".

The two of them were silent all the way, thinking all the way to the real Xuanyu's practice room.

"Master."

Lu Ming knocked on the door for Jiang Qichen. Hearing Jiang Qichen's voice, the Immortal Xuanyu inside responded and let them in.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Master Xuanyu standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back and a slender figure standing beside him. The two of them turned their heads when they saw them coming in. The slender man had a handsome face , which is exactly what Lan Xi looks like.

Seeing that Lan Xi was here, Jiang Qichen frowned, "Senior brother Lan Xi is here too, and Shaoan has not thanked him for borrowing the face of senior brother Lan Xi earlier."

Lan Xi also had a smiling face when he heard the words, and his voice was clear and clear: "Junior Brother, you are being polite, but it's just a little effort. I heard that Junior Brother is in Buxu Mountain

Injured, how is it now? "

Jiang Qichen said calmly, "Old illnesses, nothing serious."

Lan Xi cupped his hands slightly, and his behavior was just right. Comparing with his delicate face, it seemed that a gust of breeze was blowing towards his face, which directly warmed people's hearts.Compared with when Jiang Qichen pretended to be him before, his every move and face didn't fit well, it's not at 01:30 that he looks good.

"Junior Brother Shao'an came here, presumably because he has something to say to Master, and Lan Xi won't bother you here." As he spoke, he turned to Master Xuanyu: "Master, I will report to you the corpses of Luo Jiuzhao and others after I examine them , take your leave first."
