Beauty helps me achieve immortality

The waning moon hangs high in the sky, and the night breeze is cool.

Zhao Qing and Miao Jian talked about the past while drinking.

However, Zhao Qing's mood was not as happy as he appeared.

More than 300 servants died on Shouyun Mountain, and they were all powerful people, including some in the middle stage of Qi Refining.

If I go there, can I come back alive?

The spirit wine enters my stomach and I feel slightly drunk.

He no longer worried about what was already a done deal.

At least Elder Qian should have achieved his goal, and the secret deep in Shouyun Mountain will no longer be known to anyone.

Correspondingly, there are no more hidden dangers in my home at the foot of the mountain.

As for what benefits the elders gained from staying in Shouyun Mountain... that was not something a Qi-refining servant like me should consider.

But at this moment, he already had a rough guess about what happened on the mountain.

A third-order spirit gathering array?

An extremely powerful tiger demon?

It was mentioned in "The Initial Explanation of the Red Sand Formation." Certain high-level formations require the use of a cultivator's Qi and blood to activate the formation patterns...

It is said to be a formation invitation, but in fact it is a blood sacrifice.

In addition to formations, there are similar methods in spells.

This is pretty much what Elder Qian did.

Zhao Qing took into consideration that Miao Jian came from a clan and should have more experience than himself, and he had also been promoted to the outer sect.

There is no need to say this to him anymore, it is meaningless.

Miao Jian was half drunk, so he pulled Shen Su to raise his glass and said, "Brother, you were absent from the banquet on our wedding day."

"Let's make up for these two glasses of wine today, Senior Brother!"

Shen Su's face was rosy, and he had obviously recovered. He raised his hand gently to greet Wang Shuyue.

Zhao Qing and his wife smiled at each other and drank the spiritual wine together.

For a moment, the courtyard was filled with clinking glasses and laughter.

The path of spiritual practice is difficult and arduous, and being able to have a moment of peace is a great luxury.

Especially for low-level menial workers, what they fight for is the wine in their cups and the food in their stomachs. Occasionally, they fantasize about breaking through and rising to a higher realm, but they have been busy for more than ten years.

If we talk about those who are determined, there are some in the town.

Apart from working, he spent all his time meditating and practicing. When he was hungry, he ate fasting pills, and when he was thirsty, he drank salt water... All the Qi Gathering Pills he received every month were used to improve his realm.

Zhao Qing was a little confused about this behavior. Instead of living such a hard life, it would be better to return to the mortal world and become a rich man.

He was once considered a semi-hard worker, but it took him several years to face the reality.

Until the second half of the night, Miao Jian was drunk, and Zhao Qing was in a slightly better condition than him.

Wang Shuyue and Shen Su got together to prepare the hot dishes again.

The younger disciple was a little drowsy, so he pulled his brother aside and said, "Brother, Miao Jian is leaving."

"In the Dharma Hall, the elders have already informed us of the reason for this trial."

"The mining of the mine in Nanze County is imminent, and we need to go to the market to settle down and recruit independent cultivators."

?

Zhao Qing's drunkenness had mostly dissipated.

Is Elder Qian finally going to run away?

Right.

He has taken advantage of Shouyun Mountain and now he has his own team. It's time for him to run away.

He opened his mouth and swallowed back what he was about to say.

Then he asked, "When do we leave?"

"We'll leave at daybreak. The elder will take us along in the spirit boat."

Miao Jian smiled drunkenly: "I don't know how long it will take before I can see you again, Senior Brother. Miao Jian offers another toast."

"On the day of my wedding, I was drunk and talking nonsense, but I didn't expect that I would become an outer sect disciple in the blink of an eye..."

Zhao Qing looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping himself several times.

In the end, the truth was never told, and all the words were poured into the wine glass.

Everyone has their own aspirations. Isn't Miao Jian struggling in Danxia just to improve his strength? Besides, he still has a great revenge to avenge.

Perhaps, the Four Symbols Sect is more suitable for him.

Being on Elder Qian's team is better than continuing to be a handyman.

"That's good. Junior brother, when you arrive in Nanze, remember to think twice before doing anything and don't be so reckless anymore." Zhao Qing said.

Miao Jian picked up the pot and poured wine, saying with a wry smile, "Senior Brother, you have given me many reminders, and I have kept them in mind. It's a pity that in my life, love and hatred are hard to resist, and I have no choice."

"It's what I mentioned in the letter to my senior brother before..."

"Elder Li might have ulterior motives. After Elder Qian left the sect, there might be changes in the sect. Brother, you must be cautious."

"If I can settle down in Nanze, I will invite you to go to Nanze with me. It's better than staying in the kitchen."

Zhao Qing: ...

Actually, the kitchen is not bad either.

He said jokingly, "That's not necessary. With Junior Brother's luck, I have to think twice before drinking your glass of wine."

Miao Jian also laughed.

"That's right, then Senior Brother, please be careful these days."

……

Half an hour later, it was still dark.

Miao Jian put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, his face showing a strange look.

He took out the token of a Danxia Sect disciple from his bosom, and the words on it were already "Outer Sect Miao Jian".

At this moment, the token was filled with spiritual energy.

He looked up at the sky, frowned slightly, and then said, "Brother, the Dharma Hall has sent a message. We have to leave."

Zhao Qing paused, nodded slightly, clinked glasses with him, and drank the wine in the glass.

On the T-shaped street.

Zhao Qing held his wife's hand and watched Miao Jian and his wife walk towards the kitchen.

The stars are not yet gone, and the east is turning white.

Miao Jian stopped and turned back: "Senior Brother once asked, if fate is predetermined, what should I do?"

"If it is really a lonely star that guides my life..."

"Miao Jian, I don't accept it."

Zhao Qing smiled and replied with one word: "Okay."

The friend walked further and further away, and the gate of Dingzimohao Courtyard slowly closed.

……

The white dew collects the waning moon, and the gentle breeze disperses the morning glow.

A streak of light rose from the sky above Danxia Sect and headed straight for Nanze.

The light cuts through the clouds, just like the stars that have not disappeared last night.

And under the clouds, in the small courtyard.

Wang Shuyue was cleaning up the mess in the yard and said, "Husband doesn't seem to be in a good mood?"

Zhao Qing smiled and shook his head, took a deep breath, exhaled the foul air, and also helped his wife to take care of the house.

"fine."

"I just feel a little emotional. The Miao Jian couple are also our mutual acquaintances. Now that they're gone, I'm afraid we'll never see each other again."

Wang Shuyue paused while rinsing the handkerchief.

"Why do you say that, my husband?"

Zhao Qing glanced from afar at the light disappearing into the sky.

"I received news from the Blood Robe Building earlier that Elder Qian seemed to be planning to surrender to the enemy."

"All the signs in recent days have proven this to be true. Miao Jian should be a disciple of the Four Symbols Sect from now on."

The wife put down her handkerchief, walked to Zhao Qing thoughtfully, and gently massaged his shoulders and neck.

Wenrou said: "Things in the world change, if we are destined to meet again, we will meet again."

Zhao Qing nodded slightly and asked in surprise, "You don't seem to have grasped the key point?"

Wang Shuyue covered her mouth and chuckled, then stood on tiptoe and whispered in her husband's ear.

"Whether it's the sect or the elders, it has nothing to do with Shuyue."

"Whether it's the Danxia Sect or the Four Symbols Sect, as long as I can be with my husband, even if it means kneeling down and begging in the countryside, Shuyue is willing."

Listening to the gentle confession behind him and feeling the hot breath next to his ear, Zhao Qing was distracted for a moment.

He turned to look at his wife, holding her slightly blushing face in his hands.

"Did Shuyue eat enough at the banquet?"

Wang Shuyue understood instantly and her ears turned red.

With the alcohol rising in her, she tensed her body and pressed herself against her husband...

The girl stood on tiptoe, pressed her foreheads together, licked her red lips with her sweet tongue, and glanced at him with a hint of sarcasm.

"I'm not full. Shuyue wants to drink some porridge."
