    Qingyun Mountain, Xiaozhu Peak

    The night was dark, and the sky was as solid as dark ink. You could only vaguely see the thick dark clouds moving slowly in the sky. From the boundless black, silent rain fell. From the distant horizon, there was a faint rumble of thunder.  , I don¡¯t know if there will be a violent storm coming.

    The disciples of Qingyun Sect who went to southern Xinjiang have been back for a few days. Among them, Lu Xueqi returned to Xiaozhu Peak after meeting the elders of the sect and never appeared again. Even in Qingyun Sect, due to the mysterious disappearance of Master Daoxuan and Tian Buyi  It was as if she had never noticed the undercurrent it caused.

    The steep and beautiful Xiaozhu Peak is still as peaceful as it has been for thousands of years. The bamboos all over the mountain are still whispering the sound of rustling bamboo waves on this stormy night, silently gazing at the people on the top of the mountain.

    The green lantern in the hut is like a candle

    The door is lightly closed, but the window is still half open. The wind and rain in the mountains come quietly. Rain powder flies into the house from time to time, wetting the window sill made of Xiuzhu. It slowly condenses into water droplets and slides down quietly, leaving behind a trail of water.  Water marks The wind blowing from a distance gently shook the window, making a gentle 'squeak' sound in this silent rainy night.

    The candle placed on the table in the room swayed, flickering on and off. Several times it seemed like it would be blown out, but it always struggled and persisted until the mountain wind weakened, slowly regained its brightness, and became bright again.

    There is no other light in the night, and a place slightly far away from this candlelight is shrouded in shadow.

    Lu Xueqi sat under the lamp, silently looking at the candlelight

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of the melancholy seems to be engraved in the time, but I don¡¯t know how much time can be retained?

    Outside the door, soft footsteps sounded in the distance. Lu Xueqi's head moved slightly. A mountain breeze blew from the window. The candlelight on the table swayed and waxed and waned. Her hair on the temples also fluttered gently in the wind.

    The door made a low sound, and someone pushed it open. The wind and rain outside suddenly became louder, as if the wind suddenly became stronger and was about to rush into the house. Fortunately, after that moment, the visitor had already walked into the house and returned.  I closed the door, blocking out the wind and rain outside, giving the house a sense of tranquility.

    Lu Xueqi stood up, lowered her head slightly, and said, 'Senior sister, why are you here?  The visitor was none other than Wen Min. She glanced at Lu Xueqi, walked to the table, and sighed: "Since you came back to the mountain, it's rare to see you out of this room. If I don't come to see you again, I'm afraid I won't even know."  How are you now?  ¡¯ Lu Xueqi looked up at Wenmin and saw a smile on the corner of her senior sister¡¯s mouth, her eyes were soft and clearly full of care.

    She smiled in a low voice and said: "What can happen to me? Thank you for caring, senior sister." Wenmin looked at her for a long time and saw that Lu Xueqi looked as usual except for her face being slightly pale, and then she slowly felt relieved.  Come, and then he said: "Junior sister, you're fine, but as a sister, seeing you become like this, I feel really sad in my heart. After you returned to the mountain, you only saw Master once that day, and then you  She is autistic in this hut and never sees her again. No matter what, you can't blame Master in your heart. You know, we were all raised by her. Lu Xueqi shook her head and said: "Senior Sister  , what did you say? I definitely don¡¯t dare to blame Master at all. I don¡¯t dare to go to see Master. I just know that I am unworthy and am afraid of making Master angry and hurting me.¡± Wen Min was startled for a moment and looked at Lu Xueqi.  , after a long while, his face was complicated, he hesitated to speak, he just sighed in a low voice and stood up.

    At this moment, in the distance in the sky, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed, followed by a thunder, which suddenly rose up, the sound was like cracking silk, but it seemed to echo above the head, and the echo lingered for a long time.

    The sound of wind outside seems to be a little tighter

    Wenmin frowned, walked to the window, took a look outside, and said, "Looking at the sky, it seems like the rain is going to be heavy again." Lu Xueqi stood up, walked slowly to the window, stood beside Wenmin, and said  Looking outside, in the night, two slender figures stood side by side, staring at the dark night and endless wind and rain.

    In the distance, the sound of rustling bamboo waves and the sound of rain hitting bamboo leaves could be heard faintly. For a moment, I didn¡¯t know if they were still in this tranquility. Both of them were speechless.

    After a long time, Wen Min took a deep breath, smiled slightly, and said: 'Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we watched the rain together like this?  A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xueqi's mouth and she said: "Yes, actually I also remember that when I went up the mountain when I was a child, you were the one who took care of me from the very beginning. I was not sensible at that time. Every time there was a stormy night and thunder roared,  , I was particularly scared." She slowly turned her head, her eyes full of softness, and whispered: "Senior sister, you take me with you every time, sit by the window and watch the rain together, and tell me not to be afraid." Wenmin shook his head.  He laughed, stretched out his hand to gently touch Lu Xueqi's long, silky hair, and suddenly let out a sigh, saying: "In the blink of an eye, you have grown""Okay." Lu Xueqi felt Wen Min's palm gently patting her shoulder, as if there was a bit of warmth coming from there.

    After a moment of silence, Lu Xueqi looked at her senior sister and said, "Senior sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me." Wenmin was startled for a moment, and finally smiled bitterly and said, "I know you have always been smart, and I can't hide anything from you."  ' She paused and said: 'Junior sister, in fact, your intelligence is far superior to that of my sister, but why can't you see through it and understand it, and you are suffering in vain?  ¡¯ The smile at the corner of Lu Xueqi¡¯s mouth slowly disappeared, replaced by a familiar indifferent expression. However, facing Wen Min, she no longer felt that cold feeling.

    "I'm not bitter," Lu Xueqi said quietly as she stared out the window at the night.

    Wen Min looked at him in astonishment. Lu Xueqi's gaze drifted away, not knowing where she was looking in the deep night. But the tone of her words couldn't be clearer: "I have never been miserable. Senior sister has never been a disciple."  Preaching means that we should be carefree, at ease, and understand nature in order to seek immortality, right?  Wenmin nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, in terms of cultivation, we Taoists and Buddhists have some similarities." Lu Xueqi gently held the bamboo handle of the window sill. A gust of cold wind blew, and she seemed to be a little chilly.  He shrank a little, but still stood, and crystal drops of water quickly condensed on his white palms.

    ¡®But, what should I do if I want to live forever?  ¡¯ Wenmin opened her mouth slightly and frowned.

    'I know that these teachings passed down by the ancestors of Qingyun Sect for thousands of years are absolutely correct. We mortals want to escape from reincarnation and practice this way, and we may be able to achieve immortality before passing through. I also think so.  , so I only focus on cultivation now" Lu Xueqi smiled in a low voice, as if she was looking deeply into her heart, and said: "If you want me to be heartless and loveless all my life, and if you want me to become an immortal with a heart as white as a piece of paper, then how can I be so immortal and so immortal?  How can it be what I want?" Wen Min said: "Junior sister, you, what on earth are you talking about?  As if she didn't hear Wen Min's words, Lu Xueqi continued speaking on her own: "I know what you are thinking, senior sister. You are probably scolding me for not knowing people, the hardships of this world, and most of what I want in my heart."  It¡¯s hard to get results, so why don¡¯t I know?  If I say that my heart is bitter, I have indeed suffered from it. But now, I have thought about it. People say that the world is intolerable and unforgivable, but after all, I cannot be like him and break away from home to become a monk. But even so, I just want to  There is such a person in my heart that I can miss, and I also know that he also has me in his heart. As long as this is the case, I will be satisfied." Wenmin snorted and said: "Don't you know that there will be no results between you two?  Don't you care about this?  Lu Xueqi's face changed for the first time, as if a deep sadness passed by quietly. After a while, she whispered: "Of course I care. If possible, who doesn't want to stay together forever?"  Don¡¯t want to last forever?  I just know that it is difficult to achieve, so I don't think about what will happen in the future. Who knows, but I will never forget it. Wenmin looked deeply at the beautiful woman in front of him. In the night, she was as beautiful and elegant as a lily, lonely.  in full bloom

    She sighed softly and said: "Anyway, I knew I couldn't persuade you. You will go see Master tomorrow morning." Lu Xueqi was startled for a moment, turned around and said, "Although I am not unwilling to see Master,  But if she goes, she will probably make her old man angry again. Wenmin shook his head and said: "Master asked me to come to summon you in private today. What I am doing is business. Don't worry." Lu Xueqi hesitated and said:  "The Southern Xinjiang group, the beast god has been destroyed, and Zhengdao's serious trouble is gone. Is there anything else?"  ¡¯ Wen Min hesitated for a moment and said, ¡®It¡¯s the demon sect that has resurrected.¡¯ Lu Xueqi was shaken, and at the same time, a complicated and unreadable look flashed across her eyes, saying, ¡®What?  Seeing Lu Xueqi's strange look in his eyes, Wen Min sighed in his heart, but he still said calmly: "Recently, there have been constant rumors that the demon sect thieves who were defeated by the beast god in the beast catastrophe that day still have some remnants, it seems.  She has the intention of making a comeback, and our Qingyun Sect is currently experiencing internal and external troubles. Master, she seems to be worried too. You know that she always values ??you the most, and it is probably because of this that she called you over." Lu Xueqi was silent for a long time, nodded and said: "Yes, then I  I will go to see the master early tomorrow morning. Wenmin nodded and said, "Then you should rest early, I'm leaving." Lu Xueqi didn't stay long and walked to the door. Wenmin suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Lu Xueqi, and said: "  Junior sister, if something happens to you in the future, you must not keep it in your heart. If you trust me, you can tell me about it. It is better than keeping it in your heart." Lu Xueqi nodded slowly and whispered: "Yes, senior sister, I  Wen Min, who knew well, looked at her expression and realized that even though she agreed, with Lu Xueqi's temperament, she probably had some troubles that she wouldn't tell, so she had to smile bitterly, turned around and left.

    Lu Xueqi leaned on the door and watched Wenmin go away

    She slowly withdrew her gaze and saw that the night was like ink, the wind and rain were rustling, and the world was silent, as if there was a sense of desolation.

      She looked so crazy for a moment that she seemed to wake up from a dream for a long time. She turned around silently and gently closed the door.

    The wind and rain of heaven and earth are also shut outside the door

    Just as the Qingyun Sect secretly received the news, the once deserted Huqi Mountain, thousands of miles away, suddenly became lively. Large numbers of demon sect disciples returned to the headquarters of the Ghost King Sect, and the once sealed institutions  They were opened one by one, and the abandoned checkpoints were restored one by one under the orderly command.

    On a clear day, the Ghost King Sect, the last branch of the Demon Sect and the most powerful sect at the moment, returned to Middle-earth under the leadership of the Ghost King.

    The endless queue of packages, large and small, looks like a group of ants returning to their nest from afar. Among this queue, the most eye-catching thing is that there are hundreds of them every few dozen feet.  The demon sect disciples escorted a huge creature, which was completely covered with thick gray cloth, taking on a huge square shape. From under the cloth, frightening low roars could be heard from time to time, and the roars were full of ferocious anger.  , but for some reason, it sounds like he is out of breath, as if he is some kind of extremely tired monster.

    This huge mysterious thing was quickly transported by these demon sect disciples who seemed to be familiar with it into the huge cave run by the Ghost King Sect of Huqi Mountain for generations. In the air, only unknown sounds that gradually faded away and echoed low were left.  The monsters whined and roared, and at the same time, for some reason, a strange bloody smell gradually emerged from the surroundings and floated in the wind.

    The Ghost King stood on one side of the cave with his hands behind his hands, watching the last mysterious giant being transported into the depths of the cave with an expressionless face.

    At first glance, it seems that nothing has changed about him, except for the hair on the temples, which was once white because of his daughter.

    Behind him, there are two figures standing. One is Youji, still wearing the black gauze mask, silent, the other is covered in black shadow, it is Mr. Ghost.

    When almost all the disciples of the Demon Cult entered the cave, several people quickly ran forward and reported to the Ghost King in a low voice. The Ghost King listened silently and did not say anything. He just nodded slowly. Those disciples of the Demon Cult were very surprised.  Disperse quickly. Under the silent command, the huge stone mechanism at the entrance of the cave slowly fell down, blocking out the light from the outside world.

    In the darkness, the Ghost King gently exhaled the familiar smell of the cave.

    In the deep cave corridor, light slowly lit up. It was the demon sect disciples who lit the torches hanging above the passage one by one. Under the familiar dim yellow light, the shadows began to shake.

    Behind you, You Ji slowly took a step forward and said softly: ¡®Sect Master, do you want to go see Gui Li?  ¡¯ The Ghost King¡¯s eyes seemed to flash, and he said: ¡®I haven¡¯t seen him since I came back. Where is he?  You Ji whispered: "He has always been with Baguio." The Ghost King was about to move forward, paused, and after a moment, said: "I'll go over, you don't have to follow." You Ji responded.  With a sound, he watched the Ghost King walk away until the silhouette disappeared.

    She turned around, but was suddenly startled. The mysterious shadow beside her had disappeared at some point. Under the black veil, Youji's eyebrows slowly wrinkled, with complex expressions flashing in her eyes.

    Outside the ice stone chamber deep in the mountain cave, it is completely different from the bustling situation outside. There is no hustle and bustle here, and it is still as quiet as before. Perhaps in the eyes of some people, there is so much here, it should be lonely.

    The Ghost King stood outside the door of the Ice Stone Chamber for a long time, facing the stone door. For some reason, he never reached out to open it. The thick stone door lay in front of him, but his eyes seemed to have penetrated it.  Go to the indestructible stone

    Behind the stone gate, in the cold place, is your daughter still lying peacefully?

    Will a person as strong as him have a moment of weakness and not want to face his daughter?

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but time passed quietly. The Ghost King moved his body, slowly stretched out his hand, and turned the mechanism. A low roar came, and the stone door slowly opened in front of him.

    A gust of cold air came from behind the stone door, and there were faint curls of white air floating in the stone chamber.

    The Ghost King stepped in, and the stone door closed behind him.

    Nothing has changed the figure lying calmly, not even the man who has been sitting aside in my memory.

    Ghost Li didn't look back, even if he glanced at it, he still looked at Baguio, and the Ghost King didn't say anything. He silently walked to the other side of the ice stone platform, staring at his daughter

    Baguio still had that calm expression with a hint of contented smile, lying quietly, with her hands folded in front of her, the magic magic treasure of the Demon Cult, the Albizia Bell, was resting quietly in her palms

      A faint, golden brilliance seems to be refracted from the body of the Albizia bell, emitting light of different lengths in the silent stone chamber, but somehow it always gives people the illusion that there is a low light coming from somewhere.  The low-reverberation, crisp ringtone, but if you listen carefully, you can always find no trace, only the faint radiance of the bell that is always flashing, as if it is gentle eyes, watching the two men in the stone room.

    ¡®How is she doing these days when I¡¯m not around?  ¡¯ The Ghost King said calmly. His eyes had been on his daughter since he entered the stone chamber.

    Gui Li slowly raised his head and looked at the Ghost King. The Ghost King also withdrew his gaze from Baguio and looked at Gui Li.

    The eyes of the two men met in mid-air, like a silent wind and thunder

    Between them, in Baguio¡¯s hand, the light on the Albizia bell flows gently

    "She's very good," Gui Li stood up and said calmly.

    The Ghost King nodded and said, "I feel relieved that you are here." He paused and then said, "You are going to southern Xinjiang this time. Have you found any news about reviving souls?"  A trace of sadness flashed across Gui Li's face. He shook his head. The Ghost King was silent. He looked down at Baguio and sighed softly. In fact, the main purpose of Gui Li's trip to southern Xinjiang this time was to track the beast god and arrest him under the secret order of the Ghost King.  The strange beast beside the beast god is Taotie, but at the moment when the two of them are talking, it seems that they have already forgotten about it.

    In the stone chamber, there was another silence

    At the end, the Ghost King looked solemn and said calmly: "I still have something to tell you, but it's not suitable here, so we'd better go out." Ghost Li nodded and didn't say much. He glanced at Baguio for the last time. I don't know why.  , a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and then he turned around and walked out. The Ghost King followed him and walked out of the stone door. The thick stone door slowly fell, intercepting the silence once again. In the huge ice stone chamber, only Kong Zi was left.  The faint light of the flowing acacia bells

    Two men were walking side by side in the spacious corridor. Along the way, the demon sect disciples they met stepped aside and bowed to both sides. The sound of footsteps echoed softly.

    After going around several corners, the two came to the residence where Gui Li lived. The Ghost King glanced at Gui Li and seemed to feel something. Gui Li frowned slightly, but did not look at the Ghost King and just smiled.  After hesitating, he reached out and opened the door.

    The two people walked in

    'Squeak, squeak, squeak' Roar' The familiar cry of the monkey Xiao Hui was also accompanied by several strange roars. The strange beast Taotie, who used to follow the beast god, is now lying on the ghost bed.  On the ground in Li's room, it seemed to be very listless and lazy. It closed its eyes as big as copper bells and lay motionless on the ground.

    However, the monkey Xiao Hui was still as energetic as before, jumping around Taotie, touching him on the left, hitting him on the right, pulling Taotie's tail, patting Taotie's head, and even occasionally throwing his hand.  Stretching out to Taotie's bloody mouth, he opened Taotie's mouth and looked inside with a bit of curiosity.

    From the look of Xiao Hui, it seems that he wants to cheer up Taotie and play together, but it obviously has no effect on Taotie.

    After the Ghost King and Ghost Li walked in, Taotie turned a blind eye and still lay on the ground lazily. The monkey Xiao Hui let out a cry of joy, jumped on Ghost Li two or three times, and lay on his master's shoulder.

    Ghost Li touched Xiao Hui's head and said to the Ghost King calmly: "That's it." The Ghost King didn't speak, he just stared at Taotie lying on the ground at the corner of his mouth, and slowly showed a faint smile.  There is a hint of unfathomable meaning in the smile
