Zhu Xian

Chapter 2 ? Past events

I don't know when the atmosphere began, and it seemed a little depressing. Tian Buyi slowly straightened his body, and his face looked uncertain. He couldn't see what he was thinking.

Xiao Yi was silent for a while and said, "Uncle Tian, I also hesitated for a long time, but it's hard to hide it from you ┅┅"

Tian Buyi took a deep breath and nodded, "Nephew Xiao, I understand what you mean. Thank you very much."

Xiao Yi nodded and seemed to think of something. He said, "Uncle Tian, although I think Brother Zhang knows the father and daughter of the Ghost King, it seems that he has not yet entered the evil way, but the people in the demon religion are sinister and vicious. Brother Zhang is young, and I'm afraid it will be a little dangerous."

Tian Buyi snorted, his face was like frost, and he said coldly, "That beast, let's see how I can teach him a lesson when I go back!"

Xiao Yi looked at him and said, "Uncle Tian, I have a sentence, I don't know ┅┅"

Tian Buyi said, "Say it."

Xiao Yicai said, "Yes. Uncle Tian, the reason why I told you about Brother Zhang in private is that I hope that you can handle it well before it doesn't make a big deal. Uncle Cangsong has always been in charge of Qingyun's punishment, and he is quite strong. If he knows it, I'm afraid that Brother Zhang is just that he is your disciple after all, and you must have spent a lot of effort on him over the years. If you really want to make a big deal, you and Uncle Cang Song are not good- So ┅┅" He lowered his voice and said, "If Brother Zhang didn't make a big mistake, you can teach him in private, that's it."

Tian Buyi raised his head, took a deep look at him, and suddenly said, "Snephew Xiao, you really have the wind of a general, and it's not in vain for the head to value you so much. It seems that you will be the leader in the future."

Xiao Yi lowered his head slightly and said, "Uncle Tian, you are flattered."

Tian Buyi's face was as usual at this moment, and he smiled faintly and said, "Okay! You should also take a rest soon! I, Dazhufeng, will remember your kindness this time."

He didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and aggravated his tone on the three words "Dazhufeng".

Xiao Yicai didn't seem to understand anything. He smiled and said, "Uncle is too polite."

Tian Buyi nodded, stood up and walked out.

Tian Buyi stood alone in a secluded place in the woods, standing with his hands behind his back.

At this time, it was late at night, the stars were dotted in the sky, the bright moon was hanging high, and the bright moonlight shone through the luxuriant branches and leaves in the forest and fell on him. Looking out of the darkness, his face frowned slightly, and it was obvious that he was thinking about something.

Just then, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind me.

Tian Buyi turned around and looked back. Suddenly, he was stunned and said in surprise, "Is it milk?"

The person who came was his wife, Su Ru. In this desolate night, in the silent forest, she came quietly, as if to make people look at her with all their eyes in an instant.

It seems that so many years have not erased her beauty.

Su Ru approached and looked at Tian Buyi. A smile appeared at the corners of her mouth and said, "You just asked Da Ren to come back and call Xiao Fan here. Xiao Fan happened to be here. I asked him to go to the Venerable Power of King Kong Gate to have a look. He should come soon."

Tian Buyi nodded and looked at Su Ru, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything.

Su Ru said lightly, "You have been to see Xiao Yicai since night, and you have been frowning when you come back. What's the matter?"

Tian Buyi took a long breath and relaxed his face. He smiled and said, "I also know I can't hide it." With that, he told Xiao Yicai what he said to him about Zhang Xiaofan.

Su Ru listened silently. After meditated for a moment, she shook her head and said, "First of all, let's not say whether Xiaofan knows the ghost king of the demon religion and his daughter, but even if they know each other, Xiaofan will enter the demon religion, and even say that he is a spy who sneaked into Qingyunmen

Tian Buyi snorted and said, "I know this without milk. Hey, I used to accept six apprentices. From the boss to the sixth, none of them is so troublesome and annoys me so much!"

Su Ru glanced at him and said with a smile, "But from the boss to the sixth, there is no one like him who shows his face to you in the seven-vein test!"

Tian was not easy to suffocate, but he refused to admit defeat. He rolled his eyes and said, "Cut, is that also called showing your face?" He was struck like a charred stone with thunder."

Su Ru laughed and said, "Oh! My brother Tian, I heard that 300 years ago, when you participated in the seven-vein martial arts examination, you only entered the top four!"

Tian Buyi was found out by his wife, and his face was suddenly a little embarrassed. He said, "Then I'm not thinking about it at that time. The night before the test, I ran to find milk. I slipped out with the milk to see the stars and moon together on the "Hongqiao" of Tongtianfeng, and I didn't At the time of the competition, I have no energy at all. Where is Brother Wan's opponent?"

"Boh!" Su Ru sang at him, but there was a faint blush on her face. She looked at the infinite gentleness, as if she had returned to the night when she was young: "Brother Wan is extremely talented and extremely smart. Among the disciples of our generation, except for the brother of Dao Xuanzhangmen, there is no one who can compare with him in Taoist What are you? When you entered the top four, you had made your master laugh so much that you still wanted to defeat Brother Wan?"

Tian Buyi smiled and was obviously in a better mood. He said, "Brother Wan, he is naturally far better than me, but the milk chose me between him and me in those years, which shows that I still have something better than him."

Su Ru gave him a white look and said, "I was fascinated and blind at the beginning, so I followed you."

Tian was not easy to listen, and he was not angry. He just looked at his wife and smiled. His eyes were full of smiles. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and took Su Ru's boneless hand.

Su Ru stared at him and whispered, "You are so old, what are you doing?" Besides, Xiaofan will come over later. What does he look like when he sees it!"

Tian was not easy to smile. Su Ru lowered her head slightly, but did not pull her hand back.

The night is like water, and there is no one in the wilderness. The cool evening breeze blew quietly, brushing the treetop branches in the night.

It's very quiet in the woods.

After a long time, Su Ru suddenly said, "Actually, I think Xiaofan is very similar to you in those years now." With that, she raised her head and said to Tian Buyi, "Do you feel it yourself?"

Tian Buyi was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't it?"

Su Ru smiled and said, "What's your expression? In fact, you also seemed to look stupid in those years. Everyone thought that you were not as good as those energetic brothers. But in the end, in your Dazhu Peak, it is you who has achieved the most and the highest Taoism, and your master later passed on the throne to you.

Tian Buyi snorted and said, "My one is called introverted, but I'm not stupid."

Su Ru laughed out loud, shook her head and smiled, "You are a man! I'm old and thicker. I really can't do anything about you." After a pause, she continued, "But speaking of Xiaofan, I don't believe you didn't see it. With his performance in the past two years, even if he is not as smart as Lin Jingyu and Lu Xueqi, it can't be said to be a fool. I think he is at least above the middle-aged man. It's just that in the first few years, I've been neglected by you, and I feel a little inferior, and I look a little limping."

Speaking of this, Su Ru seemed to think of something again. After a moment of silence, she said, "But what I can't figure out is that the first layer of Taoism of the thickest Taiji Xuanqing Road in those years, how could he take three times more time to fix it than ordinary people?"

Tian Buyi shook his head, exhaled a sigh of sullen in his chest, and said lightly, "You don't have to think so much now. When Lao Qi comes later, I will naturally ask him what he has done these days? What else did we do that we didn't know?"

Su Ru glanced at him and said, "Then don't wait for a while for him to look fierce again. Before he spoke, he was so scared that he couldn't speak."

Tian Buyi snorted and said, "I don't know why. Sometimes when I look at him like that, a breath comes out of my heart."

Su Ru smiled and said, "Actually, you don't want to make you, the most promising disciple, better. You not only go further in Taoism, but also deal with people on weekdays. You also want him to be like Qi Hao and Xiao Yicai, left and right, and in the future ┅┅." Speaking of this .

Tian Buyi was silent for a moment and said, "What's wrong?"

Su Ru looked at him and seemed to hesitate for a moment before she said, "It's not easy. With your nature, after so many years, I haven't seen you change like Brother Wan in those years, so ┅┅"

Tian Buyi was silent for a while and nodded slowly: "I know what you mean, needless to say."

Su Ru looked at him for a long time and suddenly smiled and said, "If Xiao Fan knew that he had always looked down on him and expected him the most, I don't know how happy he would be?"

Tian Buyi snorted, looked disdainful, turned his head and said, "Is it his stupid appearance that makes me expect the most from him? Stop dreaming!"

Behind him, Su Ru looked at him with a smile and felt that his palm, which was still holding his hand, was warm and generous, as if the three hundred years had not changed at all.

She quietly clenched his hand.

Zhang Xiaofan and Song Dayen left the place where Stone and his master Dali venerable lived and walked back, as if the sound of stone urn and laughter were still echoing in their ears. Along the way, but seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, except for a few disciples who were on the night, everyone slowly walked back to their residence.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the cave where Dazhufeng lived, Song Daren was a little worried. He turned his head and said to Zhang Xiaofan, "Xiaofan, do you remember what I just said to you?"

Zhang Xiaofan said, "Yes, big brother."

Song Daren nodded and said, "I don't know why Master is looking for you, but I see that after he came back from Brother Xiao Yicai, he frowned all the time. I'm afraid there are some unpleasant things."

Zhang Xiaofan was silent, and he was even more uneasy. I don't know if it was Xiao Yi who told the matter of the ghost king and Biyao to the master that day. If so, when the master asked, he really didn't know how to explain it.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaofan didn't say anything, Song Dayen thought he was a little scared, so he smiled, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Xiaofan, you don't have to worry too much. Although the master is usually grim, he loves us brothers very much in his heart." Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, lowered his voice, and said, "However, don't be so impulsive again. In case you contradict Master, we can't plead for you!"

There was a warmth in Zhang Xiaofan's heart. He gritted his teeth, looked at Song Daren, and whispered, "Big brother, I'm really sorry to treat you like that a few days ago. You, don't blame me!"

Song Dayen smiled, stretched out his hand and touched his head, and said with a smile, "What are you doing? Let's go quickly. Don't let Master wait for a long time. But it's true on this day. The moon was still high just now. Why did the dark clouds float over at this moment? Here in the East China Sea, after all, it is different from our Central Plains."

Zhang Xiaofan looked up at the sky. Sure enough, the sky seemed to be dark all of a sudden. The moon was still bright. Now it only shuttles through the gradually piled up black clouds. The light is greatly weakened, which makes people feel bored.

While talking, the two of them had come back. Song Daren and Zhang Xiaofan stopped, and only heard the crisp laughter of Tian Linger and Du Bishu joking in the cave.

Zhang Xiaofan was silent for a moment and said to Song Daren, "Big brother, then I won't go in. I'll go straight to the woods to find the master."

Song Dayen looked at him, nodded and said, "Okay, go quickly!" But it's a little dark now. You should be careful when walking in the woods, okay?"

Zhang Xiaofan smiled, nodded, and walked to the forest ahead.

Song Dayen looked at his back and suddenly felt that the little brother was a little lonely. He sighed, shook his head, turned around and walked back to the cave.

As soon as he walked into the forest, the darkness seemed to roar from the depths of the forest and surged around him.

Zhang Xiaofan paused and his heart moved, but after a while, his eyes gradually adapted to the environment in the forest. The remaining moonlight above the night sky also sprinkled through the dense branches and leaves, falling in no man, with a faint light.

Everything in the forest is quiet. There is no daytime bird song, no beast's breath, and even the low insect song that can be heard everywhere. It seems that it can't be heard at night. There are tall and towering giant trees everywhere, standing tall and upright, in the dark, like silent warriors!

Only the wind!

The sea breeze blowing from the depths of the sea in the distance brushed over the top of the forest, blowing the treetops and rustling.

In the dark and deep forest, the teenager walked alone.

Zhang Xiaofan's thoughts suddenly drifted away. In this deep forest and quiet night, he suddenly recalled the past for a long time: under the dim yellow lamp, he was still a child. He snuggled in his mother's arms and stared at the night outside, with a faint fear ┅┅

It turns out that inadvertently, the past years are so far away.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then shook his head, accelerated his pace, and continued to walk forward.

However, he did not find that on his way, in the depths of darkness, two red lights suddenly lit up silently, like a flame of hatred.

Like a person, angry pupils!

Tian Buyi frowned and was a little impatient. He said, "What's the matter? I haven't been here for so long?"

Su Ru glanced at him and said, "How can it be so fast? Daren ran to find him, and when he came back from the Great Venerable, even if he ran, it would take some time. You can't let him fly over for this, can you?"

Tian Buyi snorted, looked up at the sky, was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's strange. How did the sky in the East China Sea become so fast?"

Su Ru looked around and frowned slightly and said, "Yes! It was bright just now! In a blink of an eye, it was covered with dark clouds." However, she didn't take this to heart. She changed the topic and asked another thing: "It's not easy. I've been puzzled since just now."

Tian Buyi looked at her and said, "What?"

Su Ru said, "If Xiao Fan really knows the father and daughter of the ghost king as Xiao Yicai said, and it is reasonable, he should say it to Brother Cang Song, which he should be very clear. But he told you in private that he objected to Brother Cangsong's concealment, and he was not very familiar with our Dazhufeng. I always feel that something is wrong."

Tian Buyi was silent for a moment and said lightly, "This person is not simple."

Su Ru frowned slightly and said, "What's wrong?"

Tian Buyi did not answer her directly. He only meditated for a while and said, "As far as I know, the head brother has been concentizing on the Taoist over the years. He has gradually ignored the things in the door. Most of the usual tedious things are left to the elders led by Cangsong." Speaking of this, he paused, sneered and said, "Now that there are people talking privately in the door, Cang Song is now the head of Longshou Peak."

Su Ru's body was shocked, and there was a look of worry on her face. She pulled La Tian's sleeve and whispered, "You must not talk nonsense outside."

Tian Buyi nodded and said, "Of course I understand. Don't worry!"

After saying that, he pondered for a moment and said, "I also know that for two thousand years, we in Qingyunmen, especially since the ancestor of Qingye created the seven veins of Qingyun, the position of the head of the sect has always been taken over by the disciples in Changmen Tongtianfeng. But now ┅┅」

Su Ru smiled and then said, "But now, Brother Cangsong is highly respected in the door, his Taoism is strong, and his reputation is second only to Brother Daoxuan. Originally, Xiao Yi seemed to have no objection when he took over as the head, but now it seems that there are some doubts.

Tian Buyi said lightly: "And for the past 200 years, Cang Song has been in charge of the punishment of Qingyunmen. He usually talks about it. Except for Brother Dao Xuan, he has not paid attention to anyone for a long time. Master Xiao's nephew is a little worried, and it's normal."

Su Ru lowered her head and said for a long time, "It's not easy. This battle between the leaders is quite involved. Don't get too deep."

Tian Buyi shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I'm the head of the vein. How can I avoid it?" Since Xiao Yi showed his favor to me today, it was mostly to compete for the future and leave a face. Anyway, we have to take one step. Let's take one step."

Su Ru sighed and nodded, "I have to do that."

With a "woo", there was a gust of wind suddenly blowing over in the unknown depths of the forest.

Zhang Xiaofan only felt a chill on his neck. He looked up at the shadows of the trees all over the sky, dancing like a demon. He frowned slightly, and only felt that the ghostly forest tonight was very different from the past. But then I thought that I had lived here for many days, and I had never seen any evil things. Is it darker?

Thinking of this, he felt funny in his heart and had to walk forward quickly.

Suddenly, behind him, the sound of ghost howling came straight into his ears. Zhang Xiaofan was shocked and immediately turned around, and his face immediately turned a little white. I saw the way behind him, in the darkness, a skeleton with a dark red light slowly lit up, flying into the air and spinning endlessly.

In the ghost's cry, the red skull gradually stopped, and its face was facing Zhang Xiaofan. Zhang Xiaofan only saw the deep hole in his eyes, as if there were a few faint fires, and he couldn't help shivering.

After a while, behind the ghost, two figures slowly rose. Against the light of the red skull, Zhang Xiaofan saw that one of them was a tall and thin old man, with a ferocious face, dry appearance, almost skin and bones. It seemed that it was not far from the red skull. His eyes stared at Zhang Xiaofan fiercely, and he looked very angry.

The other person looked quite embarrassed. Although he was also quite tall, he was carried in his hand by the old man like a chicken. He couldn't move, and his face was helpless and frustrated.

Zhang Xiaofan fixed his eyes and couldn't help but be shocked. He said "Wow" in his mouth.

This man looks familiar, but he is an acquaintance. He first saw him under the Wan Bat Ancient Grottoes in Kongsang Mountain. In the past few days, he has seen a wild dog Taoist in Liubo Mountain several times. He was carried by the withered old man with his right hand and looked sad. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, he saw Zhang Xiaofan standing in front of him. He looked over with a surprised face and immediately pointed to Zhang Xiaofan as if he had seen a savior and shouted: "Ah! That's him, that's him!"

Zhang Xiaofan was shocked. Seeing that the wild dog Taoist pointed at him and kept barking, he didn't know what it meant. But the old man stared at himself fiercely, made a harsh and hoarse voice, and said to the wild dog, "Is it this little boy from Qingyunmen?"

The wild dog nodded incessantly and said repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's him, the blood-sucking senior, this bastard who killed thousands of knives to harm your only heir, the vampire Jiang Laosan."
