Rent Affair

Chapter 28 Ten Years Period
When I heard Liu Yue say this, I guessed that the white-clothed man had confessed something on purpose, and if I continued to ask this question, I was afraid that Liu Yue would be embarrassed, so I couldn't ask any more.

Liu Yue glanced at me, saw that I didn't speak, thought I was angry, and hurriedly explained, "Sir, did I say something that offended you? I hope you can forgive me, I don't want you to ask about Qingyun Palace because Liu Yue is not a disciple of this palace!"

"Not a disciple of Qingyun Palace?" I questioned, wondering in my heart, the master of Qingyun Palace actually sent an outsider to take care of me?Could it be possible to put the two of us under house arrest in this Yiyang Courtyard?

Liu Yue nodded slightly, and replied, "I am originally from the Penglai Secret Realm. A few days ago, Qingyun Palace sent someone to bring me here, and asked me to take good care of you sir!"

"Penglai Secret Realm? What kind of place is it?"

Seeing that I don't understand anything, seeing that there is nothing to do in this simple room, Liu Yue told me to tell me about the four great secret realms.

Since Pangu opened up the world, and Nuwa mended the sky and refined stones, in ancient times, the heaven and the earth were divided into four great secret realms. These four great secret realms have survived to this day. Only one or two mortals in the world can see the secret realms. The Tomb Mountain, the Penglai Secret Realm, the Wonderland of the Western Frontier and the Secret Land of God, the four major secret realms are dominated by the Cloud Tomb Mountain. None of the disciples had ever seen it.

There is a Taoism competition between the four major secret realms every ten years. Seeing that the ten-year limit is approaching, people in the other three major secret realms are waiting to see how the master of Qingyun Palace can beat the others with one against three.

Hearing Liu Yue's words, I also learned something about these four great secret realms. The mortal world is not worth mentioning in this fairy world. How many mortals have never seen this fairy world in their entire lives, but the white shirt What is the purpose of the man bringing me to Yunmu Mountain? I am not someone who practices Taoism and pursues immortality.

While we were talking, there was a sound of footsteps in the yard, Liu Yue and I followed the sound, only to see the boy carrying the lantern, walking briskly, has reached the door, he held the lantern, bowed his hands and saluted, Said, "Sir, the palace lord has summoned you, please come with me!"

"Palace Master?" Liu Yue said in surprise when she heard these two words, staring at me with suspicion in her eyes.

I nodded in response, and followed the boy towards the opposite bank, crossed the cold abyss, and walked for a long time before arriving at a cave. The entrance of this cave was overgrown with weeds, and the weeds around me were as tall as half a person. In front of the cave entrance, the boy cupped his hands and said respectfully, "Palace Master, sir is here!"

After talking for a long time, the boy still didn't dare to stand up straight, and after a while, the person in the cave said, "You go back first!" The voice seemed to come from the depths of the cave, thick and powerful.

Holding the lantern, the boy took three steps back before turning around and leaving, leaving me alone at the entrance of the cave. The people inside were silent, and I didn’t know what to say, so I just stood still and waited for the cave to open. The people inside speak first.

But after waiting for a long while, no one in the cave spoke, my legs were sore from standing, and I complained to myself, "What kind of palace master is this special mother, playing tricks, really tormenting people."

"Ha ha……"

There were a few loud laughs in the cave, and a sudden gust of wind blew out of the cave, making the surrounding grass rustle. I quickly raised my hand to cover my eyes, and looked towards the entrance of the cave through my fingers. A stream of light flashed out from the cave, its momentum was as fast as lightning rushing to thunder.

The wind stopped, I put down my hand and looked around, but there was no one. I thought badly, the boy guarding the gate has the ability to read minds, and the secret technique of the palace master...I screamed inwardly. Let him hear it all, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave this Yunmu mountain in my lifetime!
Suddenly, a hand behind me patted my shoulder, which made me tremble, and I quickly turned around to look, and saw this man with white beard, white hair and white eyebrows, wearing a white shirt, an octogenarian man, exuding a sense of immortality. With a smile on his face, without showing any prestige, he said, "The one who insults me, the palace lord, in this Qingyun Palace, you are still No. 1!"

Hearing what the palace lord said, I hurriedly bowed my hands and said, "Palace lord, I don't mean to offend, I hope you don't get angry, old man."

The palace lord waved his hands, and laughed heartily, "Since you are here in Qingyun Palace, you are the honored guest, so why are you talking about offensive etiquette, besides, the secular ideas are the rules for ordinary people, so you don't have to stick to it!"

I saw that the palace lord was open-minded in speech and demeanor, not sticking to small details, such a man standing at the peak of the four great secret realms, was naturally broad-minded and open-minded. Can you give me some pointers?"

"No?" The palace lord sounded suspicious, stroked his white beard, and said with a smile, "But it's okay!"

"I'm just a mortal, why did Qingyun Palace seek me?"

The palace lord sighed softly, stroked his beard and looked into the distance, with a deep look in his eyes, as if remembering the past that he didn't want to mention, he looked at a point in the void for a long time, and then said, "Ten years are coming, only you Can save Qingyun Palace in dire straits, if I say this, do you understand?"

"Can I save Qingyun Palace?" I was suspicious, "I'm just an ordinary person. When it comes to the disciples of Qingyun Palace, there are many talented people and strange people everywhere. You've been in seclusion in this cave for a long time, so make fun of me?"

"Palace Master, are you kidding me?" I said with a smile.

The palace lord raised his finger and pointed at the black dot the size of an ink dot in the sky, and said, "Do you know where this black dot comes from?"

I looked along his finger, and I saw a black dot like ink. If you don't look closely, you won't notice it easily. I shook my head.

The palace lord continued, "The clouds and sky in Yunmu Mountain are originally blue and boundless, but ten years ago, a man with a sword pierced a hole in the sky, and this black spot is the sword hole!"

"Sword Cave?" I said in surprise, this Yunmu Mountain belongs to a secret realm, a place where immortals live, and that person can pierce the sky of this secret realm with a single sword, so the Master of Qingyun Palace should be afraid, "Who is that person? ?”

"It doesn't matter who the person holding the sword is..." The palace lord paced with his hands behind his back, and said as he walked, "This person almost slaughtered my whole family in Qingyun Palace ten years ago. Fortunately, there were three great secret realm lords to help him out." It's just... but this person swore before he died, 'Ten years of life and death, I will slaughter the family with a sword'!"

"What can I do?" I asked hurriedly.

"You just need to stay in this palace, you don't have to do anything!"

Just as I was about to ask a question, the palace lord waved his hands and said, "I'm a little tired today, you can go back to the guest room to rest first!" After finishing speaking, the palace lord turned into a ray of light and returned to the cave.

"As long as I stay here, I don't have to do anything?" I murmured to myself, feeling that the palace lord is hiding a lot of things from me. Since the man died ten years ago, why is he still afraid of what the man sent before he died? Swear?The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't figure it out, so I simply stopped thinking about these things and went straight back to Yiyang Courtyard.

As soon as she entered Yiyang Courtyard, she saw Liu Yue sitting alone in the courtyard, admiring the budding plum blossoms. When she heard footsteps, she hurriedly turned her head and saw that it was me. Said, "Sir, have you seen the Palace Master?" While speaking, Liu Yue's beautiful eyes were full of anticipation, and she stared at me.

I nodded and said, "I see, but..." When I saw Liu Yue, I thought that she came here from the secret realm of Penglai, and I was considered a person in this secret realm. During this "ten-year period", I thought about her Will know a thing or two, and then asked, "Have you heard of the ten-year period?"

"In the ten-year period, isn't it just a competition of secret techniques in the four great secret realms? Could it be that the palace master came to you and talked about it?" Liu Yueqiao replied with a hint of disappointment on her face.

"There are two ten-year periods, did you know?"

Hearing these words, Liu Yue's eyes were startled, her face turned pale, and she murmured, "Ten years..."

I asked her again, and she only mentioned the ten-year period. She only heard some rumors. According to legend, ten years ago, there was a genius who came from the mortal world. His name was Rui Heng. Outside the gate of Qingyun Palace on the top of Yunmu Mountain, Ruiheng was in his prime of life, with a murderous intent to kill the four disciples of the secret realm.

That year, the Lord of Qingyun Palace saw that the situation was not going well, so he summoned the other three lords of the secret realm to defend Ruiheng together through voice transmission. This battle lasted for three days and three nights. Corpses are everywhere. Although Rui Heng is excellent in Taoism, he is defeated by two fists and four hands. Seeing that they are keeping Rui Heng, they are afraid that one day they will seek revenge again and make people miserable, so they execute him.

Before this Ruiheng died, he swore angrily, "If the sky changes one day, I will take the tassels and go against the universe." The lords of the four great secret realms wanted to seal Ruiheng's soul in the Yinyang River at the foot of Yuntomb Mountain, so that he would not be able to reincarnate forever Unexpectedly, Ruiheng's soul escaped from the Yinyang River and slipped back to the mortal world when the four lords sealed it, and this was what the Palace Master was worried about.

After Liu Yue finished speaking, she sighed, and said that she thought the ten-year period was just a rumor spread in the secret realm, but now even the Palace Master of Qingyun Palace asked about it in person, one can imagine the seriousness of it.

According to what Liu Yue said, Ruiheng's ten-year pursuit of revenge is equivalent to a catastrophe in terms of the four major secret realms. What's the use of coming here?
Liu Yue glanced at me, saw that I was silent, and asked me if I was scared.

I shook my head and said that I was already a dying person, and death was nothing terrible to me.

Liu Yue smiled and said that I don't look like a dying person at all, please don't make such jokes.

I handed it over, and she put three fingers on my pulse knowingly, saying that this is a yin Gu in the mortal world, and it is easy to break this Gu in the eyes of people in the secret realm. After that, she put her hand on my chest, this is The hand is thin and boneless, soft as water, and the cool feeling spreads from the hand to the chest, and it feels like a clear spring gushing from the heart.

Liu Yue exerted a little force with her hand, and it seemed that something was protruding out of her chest. She clenched it tightly, and when she spread her hand, what came out was the bug that the fox demon forcefully fed into my mouth before. It was a bit fatter, making people sick, Liu Yue threw the bug into the air, pointed with two fingers with the other hand, the bug turned into ashes and dispersed with the wind.

Liu Yue's bright eyes were bent into a crescent moon, her dimples were sunken, and she smiled and said that there is no need to say whether she is dead or not.

I saw that Liu Yue didn't pay attention to this Yin Gu at all, but in the mortal world, Xiaoying and I traveled through mountains and rivers and went through a lot of hardships to solve this Yin Gu.I thanked him, and Liu Yue said that it was just a matter of little effort, so there was no need to say thank you.

"How do you two get along?"

Liu Yue and I looked in response, and saw that the person who asked the question was none other than the man in the white shirt who brought me here.

Seeing him, Liu Yue squatted down and saluted, and said, "Liu Yue has met Senior Brother He Shui!"

He Shui returned a faint smile, and asked Liu Yue to retreat first, and Liu Yue saluted again before exiting Yiyang Courtyard.Seeing Liu Yue leave, He Shui said to me, "The Yin Gu in your body has been removed, and now I will send you back to the mortal world!"

I was secretly happy, but when I thought of Ruiheng's poisonous oath, although I didn't know what I was useful for, but the palace lord asked, it's better to ask, I asked He Shui, ten years will come, what will Qingyun Palace do?
He Shui's face froze, and he hurriedly said with a smile, "The palace master knows it well, so you don't have to worry about this anymore. I will send you back to the mortal world now!"
