Zhuxian Prequel: Wilderness

Chapter 20 Choice

Wan Jian clapped his hands and laughed loudly, clapped his hands on his shoulder, and said: "Well said, what a man, he just has such ambition!"

Cang Song nodded heavily, and the muscles on his cheeks moved slightly, as if clenching his teeth, but he was actually a little excited.

Wan Jianyi said again: "I discussed this matter with Senior Brother Daoxuan, and it is best to select a few more people, but besides you, I can't think of anyone else who is suitable for the moment."

Cang Song thought about it carefully, then frowned, and said: "This matter is really difficult, originally Junior Brother Tianyun from Luoxia Peak was quite suitable, but he was plotted by a monster yesterday and was seriously injured. It won't work."

Wan Jianyi nodded slowly, and said: "Junior Brother Tianyun is really good, it's a pity. It's just that in such a hurry, where can I find someone who is not famous but not weak..."

While speaking, Wan Jian glanced across the sea of ​​clouds, and suddenly saw two figures walking from the direction of the sea of ​​clouds and Cuiping, one tall and one short, talking to each other and walking towards the other side.

After seeing the faces of those two people clearly, Wan Jianyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Uncle Zeng looked worried, he should still be worrying about his Fenghui Peak, Tian Buyi comforted him in a low voice.But at this moment, the two of them suddenly heard a shout from ahead at the same time, saying: "Junior Brother Tian."

Tian Buyi and Zeng Shuchang looked up at the same time, and saw Wan Jianyi standing with Cang Song in front of the sea of ​​clouds, smiling and waving at them.

The two were taken aback, and hurried forward to salute, originally Wan Jianyi's prestige in Qingyun Sect was extremely high, but after yesterday's radiant performance in the battle with the Demon Sect, now he is even more popular with all the young disciples in Qingyun respected.

Wan Jian returned the gift with a smile, glanced over the two juniors, and finally fell on Tian Buyi's face, after pondering for a moment, he said: "Junior Tian, ​​I remember when I met you at the foot of the mountain yesterday, you said you were from the Big Bamboo Peak, I don’t know what is the relationship between Uncle Zheng Tong and you?”

Tian Buyi respectfully said: "It is the teacher."

Wan Jianyi let out an "oh", seemed to be stunned, nodded and said: "So that's the case, no wonder yesterday I saw you were calm and tenacious when you were fighting with demons from the Demon Cult, and you were not surprised at all. Uncle Zheng's true biography."

Tian Buyi was praised by this senior brother who was like the proud son of Qingyunmen, he felt his heart skip a beat, as if his body was a little lighter, he quickly bowed his head and said humbly: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, senior brother praises you. It’s not easy to get started, it’s still young, the way is superficial, and at most you’ve only learned a little bit from your master.”

Wan Jianyi looked him up and down, and for some reason, the more he looked, the more he felt that the short and fat junior was quite pleasing to the eye, so after pondering for a while, he suddenly waved to him and said, "Junior Tian, ​​come with me, I will I have something to tell you."

Tian Buyi was stunned for a moment, and said, "Yes."

Watching Wan Jianyi lead Tian Buyi to the side, and whispered to him for a while, Tian Buyi's face suddenly changed from respectful and surprised at the beginning, and then he frowned and pondered, as if he had encountered something difficult to decide.

Uncle Zeng often stood in the same place, seeing the situation of those two people in his eyes, he couldn't help being curious, so he walked to Cang Song who was also standing at the side, and asked him: "Senior brother, what are they talking about?"

Cang Song glanced at him indifferently, shook his head, and said, "If Senior Brother Wan wants to tell you, he will naturally say so."

Uncle Zeng frowned, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

On the other side, Wan Jianyi had already finished what he needed to say, and finally said in a deep voice: "This matter is of great importance and extremely dangerous. I also know that it is not an easy choice for you, but you just need to follow your own mind." , don’t think too much about it, and I will never confide a word about it to other people.”

Tian Buyi responded, but seeing that he still had a look of hesitation on his face, it was obvious that he was still quite shocked by this sudden event, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Wan Jianyi did not force him, and walked back with him, and said to him: "I know you may need to think about this matter, but time is tight, before the end of the afternoon, you come here to give the final answer to me."

Tian Buyi took a deep breath, leaned over and said solemnly: "Yes."

Wan Jian nodded to him, then turned around and strode away, Cang Song took a look at Tian Buyi and Zeng Shuchang, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, seemed to have a bit of sarcasm, and then followed behind Wan Jianyi .

※※※

In the Yuqing Hall, after Zheng Tong chatted with Daoxuan for a while, he told him to take good care of Tian Chengzi before he left.

Watching this respected uncle walk away, Daoxuan stood alone in this empty corridor, and after a long silence, he turned around and walked into the quiet room again.

Tian Chengzi, the master of the Qingyun sect, was still lying sideways on the bed, and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again. Daoxuan glanced at his master, not daring to disturb him, so he went to the side and drank the drinks that a few people had just drunk. The teacup and tea were cleaned up lightly and put aside.

Originally, Tao Tong would naturally do these small things, and as him he didn't have to work for it, but at this moment, Daoxuan's thoughts were ups and downs, and it seemed that there was a gloomy air condensing in his heart, he was very uncomfortable, and he didn't want to just sit there Then, he simply packed up.

After tidying up, Daoxuan glanced across the quiet room, and when he saw the table beside the bed, he suddenly frowned slightly, because he found that the few things that were originally placed on it had disappeared by now. .

When Wan Jianyi and Zheng Tong were both here before, Daoxuan was arguing with them and didn't pay attention to it, but now he remembered that he had put the ancient sword Zhu Xian and the Seven Star Immortal sword over there yesterday, In addition, there is also a Heavenly Demon Banner, a treasure of the Demon Cult, sent by Junior Brother Shang Zhengliang later.

Could it be that they were all put away by the master?

Just when he was having some doubts in his heart, he suddenly heard Tian Chengzi who was lying on the bed in front of him not moving, but a calm and quiet voice called out, "Daoxuan."

Daoxuan was taken aback, turned to face Tian Chengzi, and said, "The disciple is here."

Tian Chengzi's body remained motionless, and he seemed to be still asleep from behind, but his voice came over clearly and gently, "You should know in your heart just now, no matter how hard you fight, Jian Yi and Zheng Tong will , will never let you go to the wilderness."

Daoxuan's body was shaken suddenly, with an unbelievable astonishment on his face, looking at Tian Chengzi's back, he said in surprise: "Master, why did you say that?"

Tian Chengzi didn't respond, and still lay there motionless.

Daoxuan's face suddenly turned pale, and even his body trembled slightly, only to hear a "poof", he actually knelt down on his knees in front of Tian Chengzi's bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, you...do you have Do you doubt my intentions? This disciple will never dare to have such scheming, this disciple only wants to be Qingyun's school, and has no other intentions!"

Tian Chengzi was buried in the quilt, and after being silent for a while, a plain voice that seemed to have no emotion came over again, saying, "That's good."

Daoxuan stared blankly at Tian Chengzi, his expression changed, he seemed to be at a loss for what to do for a moment, and after a while, he slowly stood up.

For a while, no one spoke in the quiet room, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing and cold.After an unknown amount of time, he tried to speak softly: "Master, yesterday, Junior Brother Shang Zhengliang sent a Demonic Cult magic treasure, the Heavenly Demon Banner, which was received above the sea of ​​clouds, and the disciple has already presented it here. How to dispose of this thing, I also ask Master to show me."

Tian Chengzi was silent for a moment, then said flatly: "You don't have to worry about this matter."

Daoxuan's face changed slightly, but at this moment he didn't dare to disobey his master's order, so he could only respectfully say: "Yes." After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, as if he had thought of something, he said again: "Master, because of your old man being injured these two days To recuperate, so the master uncles ordered the disciples to take pictures of all the affairs in the sect for a while. The disciples have shallow knowledge and feel like walking on thin ice, and it is very difficult. Since the master is awake now, it is better to ask you to watch things yourself, do you think it is okay?"

Tian Chengzi said indifferently: "After I was seriously injured, my energy was low, so I'd better let you take care of the big and small matters in the door."

Daoxuan lowered his head slightly, and said: "Yes, disciple understands. If Master has nothing else to do, disciple will leave first."

"Go."

Daoxuan bowed and bowed, slowly exited the quiet room, and gently closed the door of the quiet room.

When the door finally separated him from the quiet room that suddenly became extremely oppressive, Daoxuan's body trembled slightly, and he felt his whole body suddenly loosen, as if a weight of weight was suddenly lifted from his body. After doing the same thing, I realized that my back was covered in cold sweat before I knew it.

He stood silently at the door of the quiet room, looking at the closed door, with a solemn face, and remained silent for a long time.

The sun hangs high on Tongtian Peak, and the bright blue sky is clear, which is reflected on the edge of the clear water pool, like a crystal clear and beautiful gem.As soon as Wan Jian walked down the Hongqiao with Cangsong, he looked around and saw two people standing by the pool, one of them was Daoxuan.

He walked over quickly and said, "Brother, what do you need from me?"

Daoxuan nodded, and said: "That's right." He pointed to the person standing beside him, and said to Wan Jian, "This is Junior Brother Shang Zhengliang from Chaoyang Peak."

Wan Jian glanced over, while Shang Zhengliang looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Senior Brother Wan." At the same time, Cang Song who was following Wan Jianyi also greeted Daoxuan.

Wan Jian nodded to Shang Zhengliang as a signal, and then looked at Daoxuan with doubts in his eyes.

Daoxuan said: "Junior Brother Shang is someone I have known for a long time. He is simple and low-key, upright and resolute in character. He is loyal to my Qingyun family. His morals and deeds are also extraordinary. He can help you."

Wan Jian raised his sword eyebrows, looked at Shang Zhengliang, stared at him for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Shang, since you were recommended by Senior Brother Daoxuan, I have absolutely no doubts. But do you know what is going on here? Is it gone?"

Shang Zhengliang nodded, and said: "Yes, Senior Brother Daoxuan has already told me."

Wan Jianyi said: "This is the best, but going to the wilderness is very important, and it is extremely dangerous, and there is danger of death at any time. So I have to ask you one last time, have you really made this decision?"

Shang Zhengliang said loudly: "Disciple Qingyun, be a fearless and cowardly person, please allow me to go together, even if Zhengliang dies, he will not regret it!"

Wan Jian laughed, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Okay! Brother, if that's the case, you and I will go together."
