The fairy is fierce

Ding ding

Fine raindrops sprinkled on the cornices outside the window, and the silver bells hanging on the corners swayed gently in the wind, making an ethereal and sweet sound.

Wu Qingwan, who was wearing a cloud-white dress, was leaning against the window, her right arm resting on the window sill. Because the heavy skirt was too full, it slightly changed its shape under the pressure.

The misty rain in early summer was beautiful, but Wu Qingwan had no intention of admiring it at this time. Her eyes, as warm as autumn water, looked towards the distant west behind the rain curtain, with mixed feelings.

It only lasted ten days after leaving the Divine Fire Cave, but Wu Qingwan's memory still lingers on the happy family atmosphere at the end of the year.

Originally, they thought they were going to Huajunzhou together, but Wu Qingwan's heart was with Zuo Lingquan, and she didn't feel much about traveling thousands of miles in the future.

Who would have thought that in just a blink of an eye, he and Ling Quan would be separated, and from now on, it would be a case of more gatherings and more separations.

Wu Qingwan had already adapted to the identity of his wife. After thinking about it, longing, worry, and reluctance gradually emerged in her heart. These emotions made her days feel like years, and she couldn't calm down even if she wanted to concentrate on her retreat.

In fact, I can't blame others for this, I can only blame myself for not being thick-skinned enough.

After several people came out of Shenhuo Cave one after another, Lingye prepared to go overseas as planned and reported to Shangguan Patriarch beforehand.

As a result, the ancestor felt that Lingye's Taoism was too high, and there was no sense of urgency in walking together to Lingquan. Lingye was also obsessed with men and had no intention of practicing, so he let the two of them go separate ways and arranged another errand for Lingye to visit Tiechu Mansion. Several friends from the clan stopped by the Eight Arms Xuanmen to burn some paper money for the ancestor's leader, Shangguan Tianba.

The travel route is not much different from the path Ling Quan took to Juejian Cliff, but there are not many intersections. The purpose of this move is naturally to let the two of them learn to be independent. They are almost the ancestors of the Jade Order, and they will have to carry it out in the future. The burden of the nine sects is not enough to just be carefree and not take care of the sect's affairs.

Lingye knew his ancestor's intentions and obeyed the arrangement. He originally wanted to go out alone.

But Jiang Yi's moral character is not high enough, and she has always been afraid of dragging Zuo Lingquan back. Originally, Jiang Yi was worried that she would not be able to seduce her man without Ling Ye, but now that Ling Ye is no longer a flirt, Jiang Yi naturally no longer has any worries and is very 'generous' He expressed that he would accompany Lingye to prevent Lingye from being lonely on the road alone.

If Jiang Yi didn't follow, Wu Qingwan would have the nerve to go out with Ling Quan. He was also afraid that Jiang Yi couldn't defeat Ling Ye on his own, so he said he would accompany Jiang Yi. It was good now and it was too late to regret.

"well……"

After Wu Qingwan was lost in thought on the terrace for a long time, she let out a sigh and raised her hand to close the window.

The place he was in was the cabin behind the boat. The boat was flying in the sky and was waiting for the next cross-sea ferry to arrive and head to Dengchao Port.

Wu Qingwan got off the bed, opened the sliding door of the cabin, and came to the room outside.

Because I was going on a long trip, the room was renovated and I asked an expert to add some formations. The concrete effect is that there are more ornaments and patterns in the boat, making it look more compact than before.

The position of the desk has not changed. Shangguan Lingye is wearing a gorgeous dress and sitting on the chair as before; the errands of the Dayan Demon Hunting Department have been handed over to Situ Zhenzhen. Now he is much more leisurely, with a blue-eyed white cat on his lap. I was reading a book about two villains wrestling, and the bracelet on my wrist was very eye-catching.

On the coffee table next to the beauty's couch, there are thick stacks of books, all of which are historical allusions and sect information from various parts of Huajunzhou. Jiang Yi and Leng Zhu, both in red dresses, sat on the floor and looked carefully.

"Princess, Qianqiu Yuefu sounds similar to Fengyue Sect. Is it also a sect of the Xian family?"

"How do I know? Ask Lingye."

"Qianqiu Yuefu is good at music and rhythm. The number of steps is similar to the Xuanwu Terrace in Xie Qiutao's ancestors. There are many fairies in it and it is very famous in Huajunzhou."

"Zuo Lingquan isn't going anywhere, is he?"

"Let him go around it, otherwise he might become a son-in-law outside..."

…

Wu Qingwan took a seat on the beauty's couch, watched the three girls chatting, and sighed secretly. She had stayed on the boat before and didn't feel anything. But after returning home for a lively New Year, and seeing such a scene again, I always feel empty inside...

Jiang Yi held a gold pen and circled dots on the map. She found Wu Qingwan looking a little lonely and asked:

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Qingwan was embarrassed to say that she wanted a man, so she thought for a moment and said softly:

"I miss my mother. I don't know how long I will be away this time. My mother is waiting at home. Seeing that we haven't come back, I'm afraid she will blame us for being unfilial."

Jiang Yi naturally missed the glorious moment of being the eldest daughter-in-law at home, and nodded:

"I should go back after leaving customs. I feel like I went too fast."

Shangguan Lingye glanced at the album and responded:

"Mother said last time that Zuo Lingquan should go back with Lord Peach Blossom, who is three months pregnant, otherwise he will not recognize his son. Zuo Lingquan has not done anything, how dare he run back."

Wu Qingwan didn't take these words seriously at all, she just smiled, thought for a while and said:

"By the way, what did Lord Peach Blossom do? I haven't seen her since we parted ways during the Lantern Festival."

"Drinking a lot of wine in Peach Blossom Pond, the ancestor of the Immortal family who is at the level of a lord has to look after the house and keep the business. We can't expect her to follow us everywhere every day."

Leng Zhu blinked his eyes, recalled the situation at Zuo's house, and whispered:

"I think Senior Taohua likes to follow us around. He is so high-minded, but he can only stay in the house and drink alcohol alone. It's quite boring when you think about it."

Jiang Yi shook her head: "The ancestors at the top of the mountain have a far-sighted vision and have already looked down upon the common things in the world. How can they be like us and start to feel sad when something happens? Senior Shangguan has been on the mountain for thousands of years, and he has never seen her feel that way. boring."

Shangguan Lingye closed the book and thought about it for a while:

"In our eyes, Master will not tell us what he feels in his heart."

"That's true..."

……——

other side.

The early summer sun shines on the crystal white jade palace pavilion. Five colorful chains are like waterfalls falling into the sea of ​​clouds, causing ripples to spread to the horizon.

Inside the palace, on the lotus platform.

The woman in the gold skirt sat cross-legged in the white mist, her movements unchanged from the past thousand years, but the long sword floating beside her disappeared. The golden long sword also turned into a stocky fat girl, boringly in front of the lotus platform. Rolling around.

"Tangtang, so boring~"

"We have been here for thousands of years, when are we going to go out for a walk?"

"Why don't you say 'uh huh~' lately?"

…

Luo Liba's long words echoed in the palace.

The woman in the gold skirt listened for a long time, and was annoyed. With a flick of her finger, she flicked the stocky girl lying on her back into the sea of ​​clouds outside the palace, letting out a scream of "ah".

But a moment later, the stocky girl ran back from outside, her eyes full of joy:

"Tangtang, are you still alive?"

Shangguan Ancestor gently exhaled the white mist, opened Gujing Wubo's eyes, and said in a stern tone:

"If you don't be quiet, you won't have to come out again."

The little female dragon was a weapon and almost immortal. She didn't care about this threat at all. She jumped up and sat down and said nonchalantly:

"I can't help it. You are the one who is lonely. Tangtang, you are not as lively as before during this period. I haven't seen you go out."

During this period, both Zuo Lingquan and Tang Jingxun were in retreat. How could Old Ancestor Shangguan be lively without being disturbed by all kinds of stimulation?

As for going out, if it is Shangguan Patriarch's turn to go out in person, it may not happen once in decades, and the remaining years only last in the blink of an eye.

Ancestor Shangguan did not respond to the little female dragon and was about to close his eyes and continue meditating.

The little female dragon looked really bored. She rested her head on the lap of Shangguan Ancestor. She couldn't see the ancestor's cheeks from above, but could only see her high chest:

"Lingye and Zuo Lingquan are out today, aren't you going to follow them? It's okay anyway, why don't we come together? This way I can help you beat them up every day. It feels so comfortable.

"How can they practice if I follow them? They have to walk their own path..."

Shangguan Patriarch had just said a few words when he suddenly stopped talking, frowned slightly, and looked outside the palace.

Under the scorching sun, a pink petal floated across the sea of ​​clouds in the wind, but in the blink of an eye, it landed at the gate of the White Jade Palace.

The little female dragon noticed something strange, turned it up quickly, and said unexpectedly:

"Old witch?! What evil wind brought you here..."

Bang

There was a muffled sound.

Lord Peach Blossom was dressed in a dark green spring dress with a soft and graceful temperament. After slapping the foul-mouthed dragon away with a light slap, he came to the lotus platform:

"Yutang, if Zuo Lingquan goes to sea today, why don't you go see him off?"

Ancestor Shangguan left the Zuo family and naturally regained his condescending look towards Lord Peach Blossom:

"What are you doing here?"

Lord Peach Blossom returned to Peach Blossom Pond these days to drink and have erotic dreams. Not long after she woke up, she jumped onto the lotus platform and sat sideways next to her:

"Come and get some fresh air, so as not to worry. Just Lingye, nothing will happen to him with a stable personality; Zuo Lingquan has been targeted by the Youying alien race for a long time, and he always goes there with his back, so he always has trouble with him. These two useless ladies are called Tiantian Yingying when they get into trouble outside. Have you arranged a guardian for them? "

Ancestor Shangguan's expression was dull: "A true peak immortal, his own strength is his own protector. If he stays under the wings of others, he will never become a strong man on his own."

Lord Peach Blossom was slightly dissatisfied: "Do you think everyone is just like you, so lucky that you can escape from the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire alone? A tree as beautiful as the forest will be destroyed by the wind. It is not like Yuyaozhou outside. If something happens, you want to go there. It’s too late, there are really three advantages and two disadvantages, what should Lingye do?”

"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. If you blame the word 'luck' for why I have come this far, you deserve to be below me for the rest of your life."

Lord Peach Blossom didn't like hearing this anymore, she hummed softly:

"I am also an ancestor at the top of the mountain. I don't come here to beg you, I just want to talk to you. If you don't arrange a guardian, I will arrange it for him, just so that he can remember my favor."

There was disdain in Shangguan Patriarch's eyes: "Who can you ask? Even if you go out in person, there is a 80% chance that Zuo Lingquan will save you, and the remaining 20% ​​will be your death. Zuo Lingquan will cry bitterly, you don't It's called protecting the road, it's called causing chaos."? ?

These words are too poisonous!

Lord Peach Blossom stared at Old Ancestor Shangguan and was about to curse, but then he thought about it and felt something was wrong.

She blinked and looked carefully at the face of Shangguan Ancestor:

"Yutang, you're not trying to provoke me to go out and help Zuo Lingquan protect the road without paying any price, are you?"

Patriarch Shangguan glanced at Lord Peach Blossom: "Talk to me after you've sobered up. People can be stupid, but they can't be without self-awareness."

"..."

That's too much!

Lord Peach Blossom took a deep breath, and the movement was so big that he accidentally opened the skirt of his clothes, revealing the edges of the aqua fabric inside:

"Shangguan Yutang, you need to take care of it, right?"

Shangguan Ancestor has never met anyone who can take care of her in her life. She has been lonely for too long. When she heard this, she smiled instead of being angry. She was about to raise her hand, but she didn't expect Lord Peach Blossom to take the first step and sneak into the palace. outside:

"I have a good temper and I don't want to argue with you, but I want to remind you that if you continue to be so arrogant, you will hit the iron plate sooner or later."

After saying that, he ran away.

Ancestor Shangguan ignored this warning.

Because since she started practicing, there has been no morning or evening, only the sun is shining!

However, seeing that Lord Peach Blossom was about to leave, Patriarch Shangguan still spoke:

"etc."

Lord Peach Blossom paused as he walked away, then turned around as if facing a powerful enemy:

"What? You can't say you want to do it?"

There was a trace of confusion in Shangguan Patriarch's eyes, and his tone was a little softer:

"You agreed before to help me protect the road, don't forget it."

Lord Peach Blossom has been hungover in Peach Blossom Pond for the past year, and he almost forgot about it. Only after hearing this did he remember that the Shangguan Patriarch could empathize with Tang Jingxun's situation.

This time Zuo Lingquan and Tang Jingxun went out and had to stay on the ship for several months. With nothing to do, what else could they do besides singing and singing every night?

Thinking of this, Lord Peach Blossom's face became a little more ambiguous. He hugged his chest and looked down:

"Who said just now that the Immortal Lord on the top of the mountain doesn't need a guardian? Call Sister Yingying, and I will find a way for you."

"roll."

"Have you thought about it? I really want to get out. When the time comes, you will be in a state of ecstasy and want to die, but don't come to beg me."

Ancestor Shangguan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that if the old witch didn't give her a beating, she wouldn't know who was the boss of the nine sects. But as soon as she thought about it, Lord Peach Blossom changed her words:

"Forget it, you don't have to scream. I'll take over your hanging attic and things still have to be done. I'm not like you who can't keep your word."

"..."

Grand Ancestor Shangguan was speechless and wanted to say to Lord Peach Blossom, "Just change your name to 'Cui Cang Cang'".

But when those words came out, Lord Peach Blossom couldn't get off the stage at all. He wanted to ask for help and couldn't be bullied too harshly, so he didn't speak anymore...——

"Ang~..."

The deep low roar shook the coast of Deng Chao Harbor, making people feel tight in their chests, and even ripples appeared on the downpour.

Zuo Lingquan held an oil-paper umbrella and walked among the crowd heading to the harbor. At first he thought it was the roar of a dragon, but when he walked to the harbor and saw the giant island-like beast in the sea, he realized that it was the roar of a turtle.

"Oh my god, Xiao Zuo, this bastard is so big..."

"Chiji..."

Tuanzi, who was held in Tang Jingxuan's arms, was stunned. He opened his beak and looked back and forth, a bit like "a tiger can't find a way to eat."

The little dragon turtle that had been carried in Xie Qiutao's arms had some reaction and moved slightly, as if he wanted to come out to take a look, but found that there were too many two-legged beasts around, so he timidly shrank back.

Zuo Lingquan and two girls followed the crowd towards the giant turtle on the coast and unexpectedly said:

"Isn't it a ferry? Let's take the turtle there?"

Xie Qiutao has traveled across several continents and has richer experience than Zuo Lingquan. He introduced seriously:

"This is the ship from Qianxing Island in Nanyu Continent. Turtles are abundant there. Most of the spiritual beasts such as Bixi come from there. Tuotian Wangba is the largest among them. It is said that the Styx Ancestor sat down on the boat that was as big as With a radius of more than ten miles, the cultivation cave is built on the back of a turtle. This one is relatively small. It comes out to run errands and give money to the old gods of the sect..."

Zuo Lingquan was even more surprised.

The giant turtle on the coast is already hard to imagine as a living creature. The turtle's back is like an island, with pavilions and pavilions built on it, exotic flowers and trees planted, and a viewing gallery along the edge of the island. If Instead of a big turtle's head popping up at the front, being fed by Dengchao Port, it's hard to imagine that it's a turtle from the outside. Unexpectedly, it's still relatively small.

No one knows how many monsters and sea beasts are hidden in the sea. The risk is extremely high. Something that dares to carry a large number of guests across the sea is naturally of high quality. Whether it is a beast or a ferry, it is probably the lifeblood of a sect. Even if It is Wanghai Tower, and there are only a handful of ferries that can cross the sea.

Monks from all over the world have to rely on these ferries to travel to and from each other. Since there are so many monks and so few people, it is difficult to get a ticket. Even the price of a standing ticket is comparable to a high-grade magical artifact.

Zuo Lingquan wanted to take the spirit beast with him, so after Wu Laodao's advice, he went to find Chen Gongfeng in Dengchao Port to open the back door. After asking for the price, he understood why Wu Laodao said that he still felt pain in the "A-size" guest room on the ship. It requires three thousand white jade beads, and the expenses for training, food, accommodation, entertainment, etc. have to be calculated separately. If you feel it is expensive, you can swim across the East China Sea by yourself without anyone stopping you.

Judging from the scale of Tuotian Bastard, it is easy to carry thousands of people. After this trip, the immortal money earned can probably catch up with the annual harvest of a medium-sized sect. It was only at this time that Zuo Lingquan understood that Wanghai Tower How can one become one of the nine wealthy families with only a few ports?

Although the price is painful, fortunately, there is a bit of human touch on the ferry. The A-rated residence can bring Taoist companions, maids and other accompanying persons, and the steward of the ferry will not say anything when the three of them enter.

Zuo Lingquan braved the heavy rain and arrived near the coast. He first boarded the cruise ship that received the distinguished guests. On the ship, he was received by the sect deacon of Qianxing Island and inspected the accompanying spiritual pets.

The people on board the escort boat were basically people from the Nine Sects’ inner sects or big families. There were only a few casual cultivators who opened room A in order to bring their spiritual pets. Zuo Lingquan attracted some attention when he came up, but there were crouching tigers, hidden dragons outside. Practitioners know the taboos, so they glanced casually and then looked away.

Xie Qiutao had lived a tight life in the past years, and it was the first time he walked through the passage of the Xian family's powerful and powerful people. He followed Zuo Lingquan and looked at him silently. Zuo Lingquan stepped on the pedal of the cruise ship, and a middle-aged deacon walked up and blocked the way.

Zuo Lingquan heard the rules from Chen Gongfeng at the port and gave the 'recommendation letter' he bought to the deacon on the ship.

After the middle-aged deacon saw it, he knew it well and did not point it out. Instead, he said:

"There are certain risks in bringing a spiritual pet with you. According to the rules, you can only board the ship after I have inspected it. I hope you will forgive me, fellow Taoist."

When Tang Jingxuan saw this, he held the dumplings in his hands and handed them to the middle-aged deacon.

The middle-aged deacon did not touch him. He squinted his eyes and carefully looked at Tuanzi who was biting his wings and pretending to be stupid for a moment, and nodded slightly:

"The white mountain spirit in the barren mountain is very rare to be this big. It looks like... well... it hasn't opened its spiritual intelligence yet. The little fairy needs to be more careful after boarding the boat."

Tuanzi knew how stupid he was being called, so he endured it and didn't "chirp?" just so he could sleep on the blanket on the ferry.

Xie Qiutao didn't really want to leak the money, but behind the ferry was Qianxing Island, the number one immortal family in Nanyu Continent. She really didn't necessarily like her little dragon turtle, so she hesitated and took it out.

The middle-aged man turned his head and saw the pale golden dragon turtle. His eyes were obviously a little surprised, and then a little regretful. He shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, fellow Taoists. I'm just casually reminding you that there aren't many decent Chongtiao Bixi Nanyu Islands. It's the first time I've seen them with such good looks. It's a pity that they were raised crookedly and don't have any spirituality at all. , If things continue like this, when this crocodile grows up, it will inevitably return to the mountains on its own, so the three Taoists should pay more attention. "

Xie Qiutao knew that Long Gui was obsessed with escaping, so he heard the voice and asked:

"Immortal, I care for it like a treasure, but it won't show its head. What should I do?"

"Well, raising a spiritual pet is the same as raising a child. If you stay with them more and take care of them, you will naturally develop feelings for them over time. If you raise the spiritual pet carefully because of its value, then even if you surrender the spiritual pet, you will only get a child. They're just servants. They can provide as much food as they need, and they can't count on big things..."

After the middle-aged deacon talked for a moment about how to control beasts, he looked at Zuo Lingquan again.

As the butler who dealt with people on the ship, he could naturally see that the three of them, headed by Zuo Lingquan, could even bring out a fairy beast cub such as the Double-eyed Pixi. What Zuo Lingquan was carrying might not be enough. generally.

Zuo Lingquan originally wanted to say that he had no spiritual pet, but then he remembered something, touched in his arms, took out a small porcelain piece, and opened the lid.

buzz buzz

"Eh?"

The middle-aged deacon was stunned for a moment, seeing the small beetle flying around Zuo Lingquan's hand, and felt confused for a moment.

"This... dare to ask my friend, is this just?"

"Dragon-locking soul-suppressing Gu."

"Oh... Locking Dragon... Soul-Suppressing... Hmm..."

Zuo Lingquan put the little beetle into the bottle and said with a smile:

"Can we get on the boat?"

The middle-aged deacon hesitated to speak, hesitated to speak, and finally got out of the way and made a gesture of invitation:

"Please, three of you. Hmm... This spiritual pet, fellow Taoist, looks like an iron bull with a black sheath. I am really ignorant, haha..."

Xie Qiutao suppressed her laughter and quickly lowered her head and ran into the cruise ship...

I got up late, a little watery...
