Qinghe fights for the deer

Early the next morning, while Xiqing was still sleeping on the bed, she heard a tinkling sound in the yard outside.She rubbed her head, feeling a little heavy. It seems that she will drink less in the future.She wanted to turn over and continue to sleep, but the sound from outside kept coming, disturbing her sleepiness.She had to get up and get dressed.

Out of the door, I saw a few arrowheads flying through the air, nailed to an old wood, making a bang bang sound, a copper wind chime was hung on the old wood, every arrow hit made the wind chime vibrate, Clinking.

Xiqing turned around and looked in the direction of the arrow, Lu Guiyue was standing on the roof far away practicing arrows.She was tall and straight, her clothes were slightly raised in the autumn breeze, and the soft sunlight shone on her body, painting her with a layer of gold.Pulling out the arrow and launching the arrow in one go, looking at the target with stern eyes, she was a different person from usual, she released three arrows at once, and in the next second there were three more arrows on the old wood.Looking closely, the position of each arrow seems to have been measured with a ruler, forming a chessboard on the old wood.

"Good!" Xi Qing couldn't help applauding.

When Lu Guiyue heard this, a smug smile exploded on her stern face. She jumped off the roof and walked towards Xiqing: "That's not true. I am the number one marksman in the Southwest, known as the Deer Bow!"

"Hu Miracle Doctor, Lu Shenbow, you will give yourself a name!" Xi Qing smiled, eyebrows and eyes curved.

"Hey." Lu Guiyue walked in front of Xiqing, suddenly stopped, and asked casually, "Did you sleep well yesterday?"

Xi Qing said: "Of course, I can sleep until dawn. If it weren't for someone practicing archery early in the morning, I could sleep until noon."

"Then...did you...see anything yesterday?" Lu Guiyue asked hesitantly.

"What? See what?"

Seeing her bewildered look, Lu Guiyue finally felt relieved and said, "It's nothing, it's just... um... I seem to see shooting stars outside, yes, there are shooting stars, I told you to watch it."

Xiqing shook her head obediently, and said, "I didn't see it. I don't remember anything from last night."

"It's all right!" Lu Guiyue said with a relieved smile, "There are only a few, let's see next time. Hahahaha!"

Xiqing looked at Lu Guiyue and always felt that she was a little weird.

The two were chatting, when suddenly a sound transmission came: "Xiao Jiu, come to Master's dormitory immediately!"

"Master?" Xiqing heard the anxiety in Xiping's tone, did something happen?She felt uneasy, and immediately rushed to Xuanjing Zhenren's dormitory by herself.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, there were already several senior sisters serving by the side of Master Xuanjing.Xiqing cautiously raised her head and called out: "Master, Xiaojiu came to pay his respects!"

Master Xuan Jing turned around, Xi Qing was shocked when he saw Xuan Jing's pale face!She rushed forward and asked: "Master, you... what's wrong with you?"

Master Xuan Jing shook his head and said, "I'm getting old, I can't accept my old age."

"Master, don't say that, you are at the right time!" Senior Sister Xiping comforted.

"My own body knows it, so you don't have to say such things anymore." Master Xuanjing waved his hand.

"Master, what's the matter with you?" Xi Qing looked at Xuan Jing's weak appearance, he seemed to be old all of a sudden, his heart felt sour, and he couldn't help the tears in his eyes.

Master Xuanjing stretched out his hand, gently wiped Xiqing's tears with slightly rough fingers, and said lovingly: "My good boy, don't cry. Birth, old age, sickness and death are natural. I called you here as a teacher, and I want to tell you that this time I am a teacher. Going down the mountain, I couldn’t help you find a way to restore Qi Sea, alas.”

"Master, it's all Xiaojiu's fault, causing you to bother!" Xiqing threw herself into the arms of Master Xuanjing, sobbing softly.

Daoist Xuanjing gently stroked Xiqing's head, sighed and said, "Silly boy, how can I blame you? This time I went down the mountain, I heard from a Taoist friend from Kunlun Palace that there are fairy mountains in the East China Sea, and if you are destined, you can meet immortals." I originally thought that if I had the opportunity to go to the fairy mountain to meet the immortal, I could ask for advice on how to restore the sea of ​​​​qi, but I didn’t see the fairy mountain after waiting for several days. It happened that I heard that there was a water monster in the nearby fishing village, so I thought about solving it. Alas. , Who would have thought that I was too big, was besieged by a group of water monsters, was injured and escaped, making me laugh out loud."

Xiqing raised her head and said, "Master, what kind of water monster is so powerful?"

"It's just a group of catfish monsters." Master Xuanjing shook his head and said, "Water monsters are generally the most terrifying monsters in the sea, followed by rivers, and then ponds and puddles. Catfish monsters are just the lowest level of water monsters. I didn't expect It fell into their hands."

"Master, don't worry! I will immediately take all my juniors to exterminate them and avenge you!" Xiping said angrily.Master Xuan Jing has profound skills, but the total of the nine people in Sixiangtang is far more than Xuan Jing alone.

Master Xuanjing sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy. There are some black monsters on these catfish monsters, which help them greatly increase their skills. The catfish are not slippery, and the monsters cooperate skillfully. You can't make it happen."

After all, Master Xuanjing looked at Xiqing again, and said with guilt in his eyes: "It's just a pity, Xiaojiu, it's because Master didn't protect you well. Without the sea of ​​energy, you will have no chance to reach the peak of Taoism in the future. As a teacher It hurts so much!"

Seeing the vicissitudes and kindness of Xuanjing's face, Xiqing couldn't help crying while hugging Xuanjing.She hadn't felt much family affection since she was a child, and she had long forgotten what her parents looked like. Only the master of Sixiangtang and all the senior sisters treated her very well.The master is even more kind to me, in order to find a way for me to restore the sea of ​​​​qi, I don't blame myself for being seriously injured, blood relatives in the world are nothing more than this!

"Master, I have something to tell you." Xi Qing made up her mind and said with sobs.

Master Xuan Jing said softly: "Oh? Tell me."

Xi Qing said: "Actually, I don't have a sea of ​​energy, so I can continue to practice."

"What?" Master Xuan Jing's eyes widened in disbelief.

Xiqing took out the letter her father had left for her from her bosom, and handed it to Master Xuanjing.

Master Xuanjing finished reading the letter, returned the letter to Xiqing with trembling hands, and said, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! It turned out to be like this! Brother Mingshan's only child, the only blood of the He family, has been with me for so many years. here!"

"At the beginning, the village woman said that she was going to send you to my sect to practice Taoism. I was still surprised, but it turned out to be like this. It must have been entrusted by your mother. Your mother and your father have a deep relationship, and your health has always been poor. , the two should have been reunited in heaven after so many years. Alas, the world is really unpredictable!"

"Master, what happened back then? My father...how did my father die?" Xi Qing asked in tears.

"Good boy." Xuan Jing hugged Xi Qing, who was shaking from crying, in her arms, gently patted her on the back to comfort her, sighed, and said slowly.

"Back then, May the devil broke the seal and caused chaos in the Central Plains. All the sects of Taoism sent outstanding disciples to quell the chaos. It was at that time that we met your father. At that time, our brothers and sisters of the Xuanzi generation experienced many years of experience. , the cultivation base is not bad, he is quite famous in the Taoist sect, and he has seen a lot of monsters and ghosts, so he went to support on behalf of Lingyun Pavilion. But the scene in the Central Plains was really like Abi Hell, with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood, not only people, There are dozens of miles around, full of corpses of various living things, thinking about it now, as a teacher, I still feel very palpitating."

"And this was only caused by one day. The lethality of the wishing demon is too amazing. The fellow Taoists showed their unique skills and chased the hidden wishing demon. Finally, they found a clue at the bottom of the water. It was golden, engraved with The pointed end of the black evil-cursed weapon pestle was inserted into the heart of a little girl. The little girl's body has not decayed for a long time, and her appearance is still lifelike. It is a little girl of eight or nine years old."

"A Taoist friend salvaged the little girl and the pestle together, and prepared to burn them after being saved. Who would have thought that the little girl woke up and became a living corpse. Holding the golden pestle in her hand, she saw people kill people, and when she met the Buddha, she killed the Buddha. That scene was really real. living hell!"

"Many fellow Taoists died on the spot, and your father covered them to escape. At that time, your father held the 'Xuanyue Ice Wheel' handed down from the He family and fought with the living corpse for hundreds of rounds. The level of Taoism is heartbreaking."

"Later, your father won by half, took the opportunity to catch the living corpse and burned it, and buried the golden pestle on the spot to seal it. Only then did we know that the golden pestle was the weapon of the wishing demon, and the wishing demon only used his consciousness Manipulating weapons is already so difficult to deal with, if the deity comes to the world, I am afraid there will be no light in the world."

"Your father decided to seal up all the polluted areas of the Central Plains alone. However, because the area was too large and the consumption of cultivation base was too large, it took half a year to complete. Later, our brothers and sisters revisited the old place When I came to the Central Plains, I realized that he was shouldering the heavy responsibility of saving the world all by himself, and it was his duty to stay and help him, and after more than a month, the seal was finally basically completed."

"On the day when it was completed, your father was very happy, thanked us in every way, and said that he would go home to see his wife and children." Having said that, Xuanjing took a deep look at Xiqing, "Your father is indeed a A good man who is gentle, gentle, and empathetic.”

"Unexpectedly, not long after your father left, the seal changed, and the wishing magic pestle in the center of the formation showed signs of breaking the seal. We immediately notified your father through sound transmission, and he came back the next night. came back."

"Brother Mingshan seems to be a little different after he came back. I didn't guess it at the time, but when I think about it later, it turned out to be more decisive."

"He didn't arrange anything, he just told us to leave quickly. How can we retreat in the face of a big enemy, except Xuan Ming, a coward! Bah! What are you talking about to preserve your strength? It's not because you want to live on your own! We Lingyun Pavilion people , Life is a hero, and death is a ghost! I scolded Xuan Ming severely, and from then on, a problem was formed."

"Your father saw that he couldn't persuade us to leave, so he didn't care about us anymore. He just waited silently, waiting for the day when the demon will come and fight."
