In order to save the world of cultivating immortals, I also worked very hard

Donglin City is divided into north and south by the Yanjiang River. The river bank is winding and winding. It is the most lively and affluent area in Donglin City. Even the night wind here is fragrant.

At night, the lights on the river bank are continuous, the boats and songs are painted on the river, the water is rippling, and the light and shadow are shattered.

Today the boats in the river are connected together, end to end, forming a circle. In the circle is a huge drum with a red body and a yellow surface. An oiran, with black hair like a crow's feathers, was loosely tied up in a bun behind her head, and the tails of her hair were scattered around her waist, fluttering in the wind.She is wearing a dress that looks like snow in early winter, with petals embroidered with gold thread on the cuffs and front. The face is covered with a bright yellow veil, which is occasionally lifted by the wind, allowing a glimpse of the delicate lines of her jaw and neck.

Her name is Kong Luan, and tonight is her birthday. All the dignitaries and heroes in Donglin City gathered here just to make her smile and spend a lingering night together.

Kong Luan just sat upright with her eyes downcast, letting the drum under her float in the middle of the river, but the guqin placed in front of her had never been plucked once.

The onlookers on the river bank couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. It is well known that Kongluan girl is good at piano, but it makes the listeners feel like they are in the world.They are not qualified to board the ship, they are only here for a song.

In the painting boat facing Kong Luan, the hollow wooden window was open, and the man in Tsing Yi was lying lazily on the couch, with half of his face hidden in his black hair. He was extremely sleepy, but he was reluctant to close his eyes, so he had no choice but to stretch out his hands to cover his face. I yawned.A section of arm was exposed like this, and the skin like creamy white jade was dotted with red marks, like red plums falling in the snow.

His glistening eyes were half-opened, and Shen Huaichu happened to meet Master Shanggu's dark eyes, he closed them again with a snort, slowly moved and turned over, turning his back to the Kong Luan girl.

Kong Luan moved his hand on his knee, flicked his fingertips, and hit Shen Huaichu's half-exposed shoulder through the air.This force submerged into Shen Huaichu's body, and it slowly walked away, soothing his sore muscles and bones.

"Useless Gu Xiaoqing, no matter how much you please, you will be thrown into limbo from today on." Shen Huaichu muttered, unmoved at all.

It was originally planned that he would be the oiran tonight, after all, he was much better than Gu Qingxing in terms of piano skills and acting skills on the spot.The latter didn't say anything on the surface, but when he was about to change into Kong Luan's attire, he directly pushed him into the soft couch, his hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't even get off the ground.

So tonight Kong Luan doesn't play the piano, doesn't open his eyes, and looks like he rejects people thousands of miles away.Fortunately, Kong Luan was originally raised by Shen Huaichu, and she pretended to be a moody person. Besides, the maid who was with her before leaving the most famous building tonight did something wrong, dirtying the things that should have been done earlier. The clothes were ready, so Gu Qingxing's indifferent appearance did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

The real Kong Luan dressed up as a handsome young man and waited beside Shen Huaichu. Seeing that he looked like he was dying, he brought a glass of warm water to his side and said softly, "My lord, tonight is very important. Get up."

Shen Huaichu turned his head sadly, grasping the slender and tender Luan above him, and said in a mournful voice, "Luan'er, I prefer you who are so gentle and considerate, and I will let you enter the East Palace and take charge of the Phoenix Seal tomorrow."

Kong Luan stuffed the white porcelain cup into Shen Huaichu's hand, covered his face with a chuckle, and looked at the opposite side again, "That man is very skilled, I don't dare to compete with him."

Shen Huaichu let out a long sigh, put the pillow in his arms behind his back, lowered his head with a bitter face, and drank some water.

"My lord, the leader of the Nine Rings Gang and the three elders have all arrived, and they are on the boat in the southeast direction; only four evils have come from Thirteen Xies, and the rest are still in Xiancheng; no one from the Botao Society is present." General Kong Luan Report the news just received to Shen Huaichu.

"Not bad." Shen Huaichu nodded.

Kong Luan said again: "In a quarter of an hour it will be the presenting session."

Shen Huaichu pressed his forehead with difficulty: "According to what I know about that person, he probably won't even glance at those presenters."

Kong Luan: "It's nothing..."

Shen Huaichu interrupted her: "Maybe he will stab her directly with a sword."

Kong Luan: "..."

She furrowed her brows and worried for a moment, and finally chose not to see anything but to be pure: "My lord, I will check with the people from the Qixia sect again, and you will stay here and take good care of Mr. Gu."

Shen Huaichu was silent, he turned his head and glanced at He Xin, the man just raised his eyes, and when his eyes intersected, he let out another cold snort.

"My lord, our people are all in ambush, and with the help of Qixia sect disciples, we should not be on a business trip tonight." Kong Luan slowly retreated to the bead curtain, "Mr. Gu is also a sensible person, he will definitely Hold back the leader of the Nine Rings Gang."

Shen Huaichu gave a "huh" and waved his hands to signal Kong Luan to go quickly, while he sat up straight, stretched out his palm and grabbed the grapes on the table, picked one off, peeled it slowly, and put it in his mouth.

Tsk, there are some sore teeth, it's not Gu Qingxing's pick.Shen Huai frowned, and threw the grapes back.

With half a quarter of an hour left, eight women in light gauze flew from one direction to the Hexin Drum on the colored practice.The sound of silk and bamboo gradually rose, and their white, lotus-like arms rose and fell, dancing like a lotus in full bloom.

Shen Huaichu could no longer see Gu Qingxing directly, so he lowered his head and contacted Fu Shiye several times.

Half a quarter of an hour later, with the sound of water waves, the boats turned, and the eight boats changed from connecting end to end and pointing their bows at the red drum in the middle of the river.People in the boat came to the bow one after another, and the eight dancers on the drum knelt beside Gu Qingxing, raised their hands, turned and bent down, like flowers in full bloom.

As a stamen, Gu Qingxing stretched out his hand and plucked the strings, but his fingers did not press the corresponding position of the emblem, and the sound of the empty strings was deep, which was incompatible with the night where the fragrant wind was blowing.

Shen Huaichu raised his hand to open the bead curtain, leaned against the door frame, and began to applaud with a smile.

The people who were in the same boat with him suddenly came to their senses, clapped their palms together, and soon the applause spread like thunder, and some even stepped on the railing with one foot and shouted "it sounds good".

The corner of Shen Huaichu's mouth twitched slightly, he turned his head and looked at Kong Luan who was among the crowd.On that side, the madam of the most Minglou had already stepped onto the drum to preside over it. The first gift-giver stood out from the crowd, saluted Gu Qingxing from a distance, smiled and said a series of words of blessing, and then raised his hand for the servant to hold him. The prepared congratulatory gifts are served.

As we all know, Kong Luan is a monk, so there are many immortal cultivators present, and the congratulatory gifts are all kinds of strange things. There are countless accessories, as Shen Huaichu expected, Gu Qingxing even looked stingy, if it wasn't for Kong Luan's own fame, and the madam beside him said flattering words, these people would probably have rolled their eyes long ago.

But when one of them presented a painting, Gu Qingxing's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Bring it here." Gu Qingxing raised his chin lightly, his face and voice were disguised, just like Kong Luan, but his tone still had a hint of coldness.

From Shen Huaichu's perspective, he couldn't see the contents of the painting, but the person who was obsessed with the scroll was obviously the leader of the Jiuhuan Gang.

After getting the painting, Gu Qingxing stood up from behind the guqin. He glanced at the leader of the Jiuhuan Gang without emotion, and flew towards the boat behind him.

The people on this boat are all the most famous people, and Kong Luan's room is also here.The madam winked at the leader of the Jiuhuan Gang, and the two entered the room together.

Gu Qingxing didn't even try to hide it, all the doors and windows were closed by him with spiritual power, and the scroll was opened with one hand, he squinted his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Where did it come from?"

Even though it is carefully framed, the painting still has a bit of indescribable antiquity.Gu Qingxing had never seen the style of the person in the painting, but he saw the man in Tsing Yi and the man in Xuan Yi sitting on the blue stone, and behind them stood two white cranes with spread wings. The man in Tsing Yi's palm should have been pecked while feeding the crane The man in Xuanyi was lowering his head to apply medicine to him.

The man in Xuanyi turned his back outward, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but it was not hard to tell that it was Liang Yin.As for the man in Tsing Yi, he pursed his lips and drooped his eyes, the lines on his forehead were light red, who is it not Shen Huaichu?

After all, the leader of the Nine Rings Gang is a real person, seeing him speak with such an attitude, he realizes something is wrong, his palms are fisted, and a talisman paper for communication is already clutched in the palm of his hand.

Gu Qingxing sneered, flicked his fingertips, and instantly bound the hands and feet of the leader of the Nine Rings Gang, and the talisman paper was also wiped out.

"I don't have many methods, but they are enough to make your life worse than death, and I will definitely not let outsiders find out." Gu Qingxing said lightly.

The leader of the Nine Rings Gang grinned grinningly, with one finger, two axes fell into his hands, and he raised his arms, with a faint tendency to break free from the blue light circle.Gradually, he raised up quite a bit, and the intention of success flashed across his eyes, but the next moment he suddenly let go, and knelt down on the ground with a face full of pain.

The ax was deeply embedded in the floor, making a loud noise. At the same time, the door of the room opened, and the air fluctuated slightly. Soon the door was closed again, and then a figure appeared in the room.

After the man finished scanning the Nine Rings Sect Leader, his eyes fell on the painting, then he frowned, and asked the Nine Rings Sect Leader the same question: "Where did this painting come from?"

But after asking, Shen Huaichu actually laughed to himself, "It's because I didn't turn my head around, who would have asked you to send such a painting to Xingxing except Liang Yin."

He took the painting into his hand, looked at it carefully from top to bottom, then turned to Gu Qingxing and said, "Is this painting just for me?"

Gu Qingxing's eyes were half-downcast, and his tone was cold: "Take it for collection?"

"Don't be so stingy." Shen Huaichu stretched out his hand and flicked Gu Qingxing's forehead, "I feel familiar with the technique of this painting, and I think it might be painted by an old friend."

After speaking, he kicked the restless leader of the Nine Rings Gang on the ground, causing the man's teeth to slam on the floor, and dared not speak out.

"It's up to you to kill or beat this man, but don't make any noise for the outside to hear. I'll meet them first, and when the time comes, come find me."

Then he hid his figure again and floated away like a gust of wind.
