This collapsed arena!

Chapter 7 Lively and lovely Chu Xiaoye and the spirit fires

Palace Master Mu followed a little closer. The mountains are no different than flat lands. If you distract yourself for a moment, you will lose your track. Moreover, the mountains are covered with dense trees, so it is not so easy to be spotted.

Chu Xiaoye dimly saw the fox fairy in front of him seeming to turn around, and smiled at Chu Xiaoye.

Chu Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, seeing the faint golden light shining from the spirit of the fox fairy, it was indeed a friendly gesture without hostility.

Could it be that the fox fairy wanted to bring them here?

But in just a short moment, the fox fairy turned his head and disappeared as if he had evaporated.

Palace Master Mu stopped with Chu Xiaoye on his back, and stood on a branch in the forest with his toes on his toes. His handsome facial features were cut out into a nice shadow under the faint moonlight, and he was a little more vigilant than his starry eyes.

At this time, among the dense trees shrouded in gauze-like moonlight, some light blue balls of light gradually rose from the feet of the two of them, like some luminous smoke gathered together, of different sizes, slowly wandering like fireflies. Floating in the air, there is no pattern to follow.

Chu Xiaoye had never seen such a miraculous scene. There were more and more balls of light. He saw one ball of light expand and slowly divide into multiples. After a while, the mountains and plains were covered with these magnificent miracles.

Gradually, some balls of light gathered around Chu Xiaoye. Like a curious kitten, he wanted to poke with his fingertips, but he was a little scared.

"This is the Hundred Turns Spirit Fire Formation." Palace Master Mu said, the vigilance between his brows disappeared a little, he jumped down from the treetop and put Chu Xiaoye on the ground behind him, and walked forward a few steps with his arms around him. Some open place.

"These are all spiritual fires, which are beneficial to people. I am afraid that only a spiritual mountain like Ruishan can have so many." Saying this, Palace Master Mu held Chu Xiaoye's kitten's paw, and took him to touch the light The ball, the ball of light bounced away slightly as if frightened, and floated back after a while.

Chu Xiaoye felt the cool touch of her fingertips, opened her eyes wide and said excitedly, "Is this alive?"

"Spiritual fire naturally has some spiritual energy. So many spiritual fires should be kept here by the fox fairy. He made this hundred-turn spiritual fire formation and entered rashly at night. If he can't find the formation, he may be trapped until dawn. , it will be much easier to decipher during the day." Palace Master Mu explained with a smile.

"Here? Can I raise one!" It's a pity that Ye Xiaomao, who was completely attracted by the spirit fire, missed the point at all.

"The spirit fire will dissipate soon after leaving Ruishan, where the spirit energy gathers." Palace Master Mu actually answered the question seriously.

Chu Xiaoye didn't lament that it was a pity, and she didn't think she had much expectations.

Palace Master Mu saw him bouncing around to catch the spirit fire to play with, the blue light of the spirit fire reflected on his immature but extremely beautiful face, which complemented each other a little bit.The spirit fire is obviously also very close to him, gathering more and more around him, flying around with his slender fingertips, drawing more magnificent scenes in the dark forest.

Chu Xiaoye watched the fat group of spiritual fire grow bigger and bigger, she pouted and exhaled lightly, the spiritual fire split into four or five with a bang.

Chu Xiaoye giggled silly.

Seeing this innocent and beautiful young man surrounded by this gorgeous beauty, Palace Master Mu became a little obsessed.

In the depths of the dense forest, a tall and straight man in white squatted like a small animal in the center of the hundred-turning spirit fire formation, and smiled with interest as he watched the children flopping about outside the formation.

"Chu... Ye? Heh, Old Antique, your descendants are really interesting, they don't look like you at all."

The night wind blew, and behind the man, the fluffy nine tails were as white as the moon.

As the bright moon sinks to the west, a pair of people on the ground are drunk.

Chu Xiaoye was tired from playing, so Palace Master Mu carried him back to the inn again.

Mu Yuntian's qinggong is very good, he walks fast and steadily, but the distance is too far, and it will take at least half an hour to go back. Chu Xiaoye was tired all day and jumped up and down to play with the spirit fire. Now his breathing is steady and hazy Zhong fell asleep on that solid shoulder.

Early the next morning, Chu Xiaoye woke up in a daze, looking at the man lying on his side who was "watching" her with a smile.

Chu Xiaoye subconsciously reached out and touched the little chrysanthemum behind her.

Well, there seems to be no problem.

Palace Master Mu suppressed a smile.

Chu Xiaoshou flew over with a sharp eye.

Sleepy-eyed kittens are clearly harmless.

Palace Master Mu still patted his head and gave Shunmao a face.

Chu Xiaoye didn't have time to worry about the problem of the two of them sharing the same room and sleeping on the same bed, a bowl of hot white fungus soup had already diverted their attention.

Although the white fungus soup looks very girly, it is really delicious.

Chu Xiaoshou was moved by the happy little star in his eyes.

"Palace Master." Yuehen pushed the door open and came in, "Two more corpses were found in the north of the city."

"What's the matter? Fox demon?" Chu Xiaoye frowned, why did he feel that the frequency of death became higher after he came.

"It seems to be true. The two deceased are servants of Li Yuanwai's family in the north of the city. They are big and strong. They know how to fight and die in the same way as the watchman the day before yesterday."

Chu Xiaoye's brows deepened, and she glanced at Palace Master Mu: Yuanwai Li from the north of the city...is that the one who bought the young lady yesterday?

Palace Master Mu stretched out his hand, and stroked Chu Xiaoye's brow with slightly cool fingertips: "Don't worry, we will find out."

Chu Xiaoye was taken aback for a moment, being poked into something.

Ever since she got the God-Binding Curse, no, since she came to this strange world, Chu Xiaoye felt as if she had lost her way into a forest full of thick fog.

Unknowingly, I was a little anxious, and I didn't even notice it, but was seen through by the person next to me.

Chu Xiaoye hesitated and nodded, put down the bowl and was about to go out to the Yamen to check the corpse.

When seeing Taishou Liu again, Chu Xiaoye was a little ballsy and embarrassed. As soon as she saw Taishou Liu's upright face, she thought of what happened last night. Every word Liu Taishou said would be converted into Hmm, ah, it can be merged into a song of anxiety.

The two people who died last night were indeed the two strong men from Li Yuan's family that I had seen. The person who was still vicious last night had turned into a tragic corpse this morning.

Human life is actually so fragile, Chu Xiaoye felt a little sad.

These two people did not have the spiritual spirit of the fox fairy. Chu Xiaoye wanted to check the corpses of the previous victims, but was told that because the murderer had not been found before, those corpses had already been buried.

Even if the body can still be found, the soul of the person who has been dead for a long time may have been dissipated, and there is no point in checking it.

On the way back to the inn, the sky had already turned cloudy, and some drizzles of rain were falling slowly, falling on Chu Xiaoye's cheeks. It was a bit cold, but it couldn't cool down the intense entanglement in Chu Xiaoye's mind.

The two walked side by side without holding umbrellas, and Palace Master Mu beside him didn't say a word.

The spirit spirit of the fox fairy on the watchman's body, the same spirit spirit on the scroll of Fengyunlu in the case file room, and the spirit spirit of the water master left in the burned case file room, Liu Taishou was vague. The unknown "over there", the fox fairy who disappeared at the foot of Ruishan... and... the relationship between Chu Haolan and that fox fairy.

All of these seem to be connected by an invisible thread, but they seem to be unconnected.

Last night, the two of them chased the fox fairy to Ruishan, Jiuhuafeng, and they didn't leave until midnight. According to the fox fairy's footsteps, it seemed impossible to kill and throw away the corpse in such a short period of time. There is no aura of a fox fairy, so maybe...the murderer is someone else.

As for the master Shui Duan who burned the file room, and the attitude of Taishou Liu who obviously knew... Perhaps, we should start from those people.

"Jiuhuafeng, what kind of sect is it?" Chu Xiaoye turned her head and asked the people around her.

"It seems that it was founded in the past ten years, and it has only emerged from the rivers and lakes in the past five years."

The rain gradually became thicker, Palace Master Mu took off his outer robe to protect Chu Xiaoye from the rain.

"I'm not familiar with the Lord Jiuhuafeng, but this sect seems to be a bit secretive. Jiuhuafeng has no apparent business in Jianghu, but there are three thousand disciples under his sect, all of whom were recruited in recent years. The master of Huafeng, Du Hongde, is nearly fifty years old. In the early years, he was not well-known in the world. At least I have never heard of this person. But when he founded the Jiuhuafeng sect, he was already a master of wooden sections. , is also rare."

The two talked while walking, and they arrived at the door of the inn not long after.

Yuehen sat in the lobby, and when he saw the two, he came up to report the news he had found.

"Jiuhuafeng is holding a martial arts competition these days. It is held once a year in the Jiuhuafeng sect. The results of the competition determine the order of Du Hongde's disciples. Only the one who wins the championship can be called the big disciple, the successor of the peak master, regardless of the seniority of the sect. .” Yuehen inquired in some detail.

"Jianghu sect attaches the most importance to seniority, this Jiuhuafeng is a bit strange." It was a person outside the door who spoke, walked in and bowed to Mu Yuntian while speaking, "Palace Master."

When Chu Xiaoye saw the man in front of her, she felt that it was getting dark.

It's nothing else, this man... No, this rough guy is huge, very strong, taller than everyone in the room, with extremely broad shoulders, a big bag with bulging biceps on his arm, and he is wearing The metal inlaid waistcoat has two bumps on the shoulders from a distance, and it can be completely covered when standing at the door.

"Xingyang! Why are you here!" Yuehen has jumped up here, and it is rare for her capable to be so excited.

Palace Master Mu turned his head and introduced to Chu Xiaoye: "This is Xingyang, the right protector of my Xingshen Palace."

"Hahaha, this is the second young master of the national teacher's family. Why does he look like a little chick? It's exactly what Chu Zhou said!" Xing Yang smiled brightly, as if he knew Chu first very well. .

Sweat dripped from Chu Xiaoye's forehead, and she called the idiot Er Shao in front of others...

"Hi, first time meeting, biceps... ah no, right protector."

Chu Xiaoye sometimes has a dark belly, although no one present knows what a bicep is.

"Ahem," Palace Master Mu coughed twice, this right protector is really getting more and more unreliable, "Who asked you to come?"

"Hey, anyway, the Starscar Palace can't collapse with that kid Zhao Long. I was bored, so I came looking for the Palace Master."

This protector of the Xingshen Palace is obviously a bit... Second, is it really good to say that the Xingshen Palace will not collapse in front of his own palace lord? Chu Xiaoshou was a little speechless.

Yuehen ignored him here, turned around and said to Chu Xiaoye: "This man is the most stupefied in my Xinghen Palace, young master, don't bother with him."

Chu Xiaoye nodded: How could I care about biceps?

A group of people sat down and chatted about Jiuhuafeng, and finally decided unanimously to explore that Jiuhuafeng first.

Simply can't find clues in this Heping City, why not go to the mountain first, not to mention there is a fox fairy over there.

Looking for a fox fairy to ask for a panacea is a serious matter!Chu Xiaoye wailed silently.

Without further ado, some subordinates were left in Heping City to continue watching the wind, and the rest of the people went to Jiuhua Peak to visit the Lord of Jiuhua Peak in the afternoon.

Even with so many people, they couldn't hide their whereabouts, so the group simply sent a greeting card.The euphemistic name is: exchanges between sects, the great faction of Jianghu, Xinghen Palace, went to Jiuhuafeng to observe the ceremony at the martial arts competition.

Walking to the halfway up the mountain of Jiuhua Peak, in front of the gate of Jiuhua Peak Sect, none of the disciples of Jiuhua Peak sect came out to greet him.

After the gatekeeper made the announcement, it took a while before a dark purple figure flew down the mountain, flying down against the rock wall, showing off his lightness skills.

It was Du Hongde who came. After seeing the group of people, he laughed and expressed his feeling of being disappointed. He didn't even give a reason for not coming to meet them in time, which was very hypocritical.

Chu Xiaoye complained silently.

The guest who sent the greeting card waited at the door for so long before coming out, clearly showing off his power, obviously he didn't want the guest to come at all.

But it doesn't matter, if you don't welcome it, it means that there must be some problems in this mountain, and the cover-up is the truth.

Chu Xiaoye silently clenches her fist: You must find out the truth.

Palace Master Mu exchanged polite greetings with Du Hongde while paying attention to the expression on Chu Xiaoye's face.

After so many days, Palace Master Mu already knew that the kitten must be indulging in his own world again, so he was distracted to pay attention to his strange facial movements, and felt that chatting with this hypocritical old fox seemed not so boring.

Even if Du Hongde was reluctant, as a big school in the Jianghu, the Xingshen Palace was properly placed in a small ornately decorated courtyard.

Even so, the rooms in the courtyard are somewhat insufficient.

At least Chu Xiaoye thought so, because he was forced to live in the same room with Palace Master Mu.

Although it is a large room.
