Chapter 56

She stomped her feet and said shyly, "Brother, be serious! I'm serious!"

He didn't care about this, and whispered: "Could it be that Junior Sister is jealous of Junior Sister Yulian? No need, she can't steal from you."

Xue Qinglan said angrily: "Master, brother!"

Seeing that she was angry, he quickly showed his weakness and said: "Okay, okay, I made a slip of the tongue, brother and sister, please don't get angry."

She stomped her feet again and said: "What brother and sister, don't scream, I hate that ice cube of Sifeng Yutian!"

Xiqiu covered his mouth with his hand, and snickered a few times through the hood to cover it, and then said seriously: "Okay, let's be serious..."

Xue Qinglan rolled his eyes at him, thinking that you are finally going to talk about serious things, you are really a genius for such a heavy topic to be talked about like this.

Xiqiu said leisurely: "Young junior sister really has sharp teeth."

He especially gritted the word "tooth cusp", as if he had no deep meaning.Xue Qinglan was puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean?"

He pretended to be surprised and said, "Huh? Little junior sister, don't you know? When you were out of your mind, you regarded your junior brother as a bad guy, and then bit his shoulder so hard that you almost gnawed off a piece of meat. It's quite ruthless... Tsk tsk tsk, you haven't seen the depth of the tooth marks, blood flowed on the spot."

He exaggerated as much as he could, making the otherwise innocuous bite as serious as it could be.

Xue Qinglan didn't know about this, she covered her mouth in surprise, and said, "Huh? And this thing? I... I don't know, I really didn't do it on purpose."

He smiled and patted her on the shoulder, and said, "I know you didn't do it on purpose, and my junior didn't mind, but this scar... well, I'm afraid it won't be easy to remove."

He dragged his voice with more than enough meaning, leaving her enough time to think.

Naturally, her thoughts were not as far away as Xiqiuzhi's, and she didn't think about the deep meaning of the tooth marks. She just felt that it was wrong for her to injure Feng Yutian unintentionally, and said to herself: "Scars? Then I will be careful in the future. There are no good scar removers."

Xiqiu smiled triumphantly, and could already think of countless charming stories that will happen in the future about this trivial matter.The little junior sister looks for medicine for the junior brother, and gives it to him after finding it, and what's more, will she directly help him with the medicine?I really want to see that scene... It would be even better if I can't find the medicine, this can be regarded as "traces of love", maybe it is the biggest harvest of my trip!
Seeing him smiling, Xue Qinglan said with a dark face: "Senior brother, don't you realize that you are smiling very sinisterly?"

"Is there?" He held his chin in a serious manner and put on a serious expression, but he was already laughing in his heart.

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the bank, but the bank was already empty, and there was not even a gatekeeper inside.

Xiqiuzhi quickly found the secret tunnel and led Xue Qinglan down.

The underground is very large and open, but the strange thing is that there seems to be no one here.

Xue Qinglan casually wandered around the various rooms inside, and found that there are halls, cells, and single rooms here, which are very complete. It seems that it really looks like a certain stronghold. The tables and chairs are also there, but the important things have been taken away.

She casually asked, "Brother, is it really here?"

Xi Qiuzhi pointed to a black banner with a poisonous snake hanging on the wall, and said: "Look, this two-headed poisonous snake is the symbol of shadowlessness. We should have come to the right place, and the ground here is also very clean. It can be seen that not long ago It’s still working, but for some unknown reason these people withdrew within a short period of time.”

She said: "It seems that we came at the wrong time...but why did those people leave?"

He thought for a while, and said, "If it wasn't that this stronghold was exposed, then... it was in danger, so he escaped?"

Xue Qinglan remembered her ominous prophecy, and said, "Maybe it's true, brother, let's find a way to leave too, shall we? As soon as possible!"

He nodded and said: "Well, the number of people in Yongchang City has decreased significantly in the past two days. Now there are no people on the street. They should either escape or be killed. This place has become a place of right and wrong. We really shouldn't stay for long. Okay Well, there’s nothing to gain here, let’s go back first.”

Just because he didn't gain much didn't mean he would give up. On the contrary, he decided to continue to find a way to investigate and find out who was planning to frame them.

They left the bank and walked towards the small courtyard where they lived. The atmosphere was different from when they came. On the way back, they didn't speak a word, and they were strangely silent.

However, when they walked halfway, they suddenly saw someone standing in the middle of the road, facing them, as if they were waiting for the two of them.

The moonlight was dim, and the person who came was standing against the light, his face unclear.

Xiqiu frowned slightly, and said, "Who is this brother in front? What is your business?"

The person who came raised his head, shook his slightly worn Taoist robe, and said in a bitter voice, "Master Xiqiu's uncle is safe and sound!"

As soon as this person spoke, Xue Qinglan vaguely felt as if she had heard it somewhere before. After thinking about it carefully, a name popped out of her mind suddenly, and she exclaimed, "It's Cao Feng?!"

She once eavesdropped on the speeches of monk Huineng and others in Wanbao Temple. Cao Feng was also there at that time. I will admit my mistake!
"So you are Cao Feng!" Xi Qiuzhi looked very calm.According to the teacher's account, the traitor Cao Feng was only at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Even if he was lucky enough to break through during this period, he was only in the early stage of Condensation Yuan, so he should not be able to pose any threat to him.

However, Cao Feng dared to stand up so blatantly, and knew that he was Xiqiuzhi, there must be deceit in it, maybe there were some shady methods, so he still couldn't be careless.

Xue Qinglan took a step back and hid behind Xiqiu.This is a subconscious behavior, and it is naturally not her turn to show up with a senior brother.

At this time, the moonlight shifted slightly, and Cao Feng's appearance could be clearly seen, which was indeed very similar to the portrait, except for the full beard.

She looked at Cao Feng's face, and faintly felt that something was wrong, but this face was obviously Cao Feng, and it was the same as the Cao Feng she saw in Wanbao Temple.

What is the difference?
She quickly searched her memory, compared the Cao Feng of Wanbao Temple at that time with the current Cao Feng, and thought for a long time before finally discovering the difference!
It's temperament!

She always felt that Cao Feng was an insidious and sinister villain who couldn't support the mud on the wall. Although the Cao Feng in front of her was still so annoying, she didn't have the feeling that she could be slapped away with a slap.

Could it be that this person has been forbearing, pretending to be useless, so that people can take it lightly?

Xiqiuzhi had never met Cao Feng before, and he didn't have anything to compare in his heart. Although he thought he could handle Cao Feng, he still whispered to Xue Qinglan just to be on the safe side: "Little Junior Sister, step back first."

As expected, Xue Qinglan was obedient, obediently withdrew more than ten feet away, and watched the battle from a distance, leaving enough space for Xiqiuzhi.

Cao Feng took out a long sword of invisible texture, smiled coldly at Xiqiuzhi, and said, "Uncle Xiqiu, if I beat you with one and a half moves, can my uncle be merciful and stop chasing you?" kill me?"

His words can be regarded as nonsense, Xiqiuzhi also took out his long sword, and said: "If you return the stolen exercises and forbidden medicine, and take the initiative to go back to the mountain to plead guilty, I can stop chasing you."

"Master uncle really knows how to joke." Cao Feng chuckled, "Mount Taiqing is so far away, it's not easy to walk out, how could it be possible to go back? Sigh, since master uncle is so difficult to talk, as a nephew, I have no choice but to ask Zi Yuan for advice. The master disciple's brilliant move!"

With a flick of his right hand, the long sword flew towards Xi Qiuzhi like a streamer!
"It turns out that you have come to Ningyuan and learned Yujian, no wonder you are so confident."

For the Taiqing Mountain disciples, Ningyuan is the first watershed. The offensive and defensive methods below Ningyuan are no different from ordinary people. By.

The corner of Xiqiu's mouth was smiling, and he was not intimidated by it. He also threw the sword in his hand with one hand. However, unlike Cao Feng's simple control of the sword, his sword turned from one to three in the air, rotating each other to form a whirlwind, not only Counter Cao Feng's flying sword back, and attack Cao Feng himself with infinite power!
Cao Feng seemed to panic, and fled in a hurry in the face of the menacing Feijian, using the surrounding obstacles to block Feijian's attack.

"Want to run?" Seeing that Cao Feng was about to escape from his attack range, Xiqiuzhi finally found Cao Feng's trail, of course he refused to let it go, and chased after the victory!

"Senior Brother Xi?" Xue Qinglan wanted to stop him, but he had already run away in the blink of an eye.

This is how to do?Chase them together?

No, even chasing after him won't help, so I can only watch from the sidelines.Besides, since Cao Feng has reached the Yuan Condensation Stage, she is determined not to be able to beat her, and she may be accidentally injured by Feijian, and it is only Xi Qiuzhi's burden to keep up.

By the way, go back!Go find Feng Yutian!
She was worried that Cao Feng would have some hidden means to deal with Xi Qiuzhi, and the only one who could help at this moment was Feng Yutian, who was comparable to his cultivation level!

After she figured this out, she no longer hesitated, turned around and ran towards the small courtyard of the residence.

In the autumn night, the moonlight was hazy, and the cold wind was blowing. It was already late at night, and even if the dawn was later, it would not be far away.The city of Yongchang was quiet and silent, as if there were a pair of lofty eyes watching everything that happened here, and ordered all the people in Yongchang city who should have existed not to appear. Suddenly, she felt that this was a dead city.In other words, it is about to become a dead city.

Delicate red plums can often be seen blooming on the side of the road. It is reasonable to say that now is definitely not the season for red plums to bloom, but these red plums appear so suddenly and so harmoniously.

While running, she looked up at a tall red plum tree on the side of the road, and accidentally remembered that someone had told her before: red plums were not originally red.

Plum blossoms used to be clean and white, and when winter snow fell on the branches, it was almost impossible to tell whether they were plum blossoms or snowflakes. However, one day, all the plum blossoms in the world turned red overnight, and all the white plum blossoms turned into red plum blossoms.

It is said that during those days, it was a period of great turmoil in the Six Realms, and countless people were killed and injured in the Six Realms. I don't know how many people died of injustice, and how many people lost their blood in vain.Therefore, some people think that red plums are dyed red by blood, and only countless blood can dye clean white plums blood red.

Red plums are so beautiful... But does this beauty also herald some kind of disaster?

She shivered for no reason, remembering the scene of demonized people's blood flowing into rivers in the cave of Li River, she wondered if the red plums were watered with the blood of the whole Yongchang City, right?
Thinking of this, she stopped unconsciously, took out her Cicada Wing Sword and hugged it tightly in her arms, as if only having this sword in her hand could give her a little sense of security.

"Ha, I didn't expect to be discovered by you!"

Suddenly there were sounds from all around, Xue Qinglan was taken aback, only then did she realize that there were people hiding around!Could it be that someone else came here to kill this little person like her?Or is it to prevent her from going back to report the news?

No... Could it be that the other party wants to defeat them one by one?
In fact, she didn't realize that there were people around her at all, it was just a subtle induction that made her stop, and as a result, the other party mistakenly thought that she had been discovered.

From the path in front of her came out a person who was also wearing an old Taoist robe, and this person——

She screamed: "Cao Feng?! Why are you here? Brother Xi?"

Cao Feng actually appeared in front of her?What happened to Xi Chuzhi who went to chase him down?How did he catch up with her again in such a short time?She obviously took the opposite path!
Cao Feng smiled sinisterly, and said, "Don't get me wrong, my task from the very beginning was to deal with you, a woman who is weaker than me. In terms of seniority, should I call you 'Uncle Master'?"

Xue Qinglan frowned, unsheathed the Cicada Wing Sword, and said, "You have long been expelled from the door, Shaoyi Taiqing Mountain disciple claims, you have no right to talk about seniority with me!"

In front of her leaning on her sword, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, connected the sense of incongruity just now, and suddenly realized: "I know! That wasn't you just now! Could it be someone else pretending to be?"

The Cao Feng in front of her was exactly the same as the Cao Feng she peeked at Wanbao Temple, without the slightest difference in temperament, if she was not familiar with the methods of cultivators, she should have recognized it immediately.A person's appearance is easy to change, but it is not easy to imitate temperament and demeanor.The disguise of that person just now obviously only achieved the resemblance in appearance, not the resemblance in spirit, which made Xue Qinglan, who had seen Cao Feng, feel a little awkward.

Cao Feng applauded and said, "Smart, as expected of...hehe, little uncle?"

Xue Qinglan sternly said, "What is your purpose in designing to lure Senior Brother Xi away?"

"How can I tell you this? Little uncle, why don't we discuss something?"

Xue Qinglan felt that he seemed to be delaying time, but she still couldn't help being puzzled, and said, "Say."

He chuckled and said, "Let's not do anything, how about just chatting here until dawn? This way you can relax, and so can I."

"Stop talking nonsense, don't think I'm afraid of you!" She was terrified in her heart, convinced that the other party was delaying time, and there might be other tricks, so she must break through as soon as possible!
