As soon as Xiong Dashen and other six Qingcheng disciples took their seats in the main hall, more than a dozen Qingcheng monks arrived outside Xuanzhen Temple. Yu He hurriedly went out to greet the guests again, but was shocked to see a large row of people, old and young, standing outside the gate of the Taoist temple. Among them were not only the young elite disciples of the "Seven Swords of Qingcheng" generation, but the leaders were actually three "Xuan" His name is Qingcheng Gaodao. Even a Qingcheng monk of the Xuan generation would not consider himself an elder when meeting Yu He. The three Taoists with gray hair and beards clasped their fists and saluted, shouting, "Trouble Junior Brother Xuanzhenzi." After Yu He exchanged polite greetings with them, he also led these dozen people to the main hall to serve tea. More than 20 Qingcheng Xianzong monks were ranked according to their seniority, sitting or standing in the main hall of Xuanzhen Temple. Everyone looked at Yu He with a smile on their face. Yu He looked at the room full of Qingcheng masters, waved his hand and ordered the maid to serve tea, and then left. He bowed to the group of monks and laughed loudly: "Today all the brothers and sisters are here, so that my small Taoist temple It can be said that the peonies are shining brightly, but I don¡¯t know if everyone is here to attack me and compete with me for drinking, or is there something else going on?¡± He ruined Xuanzhen Temple's fine wine. This time, he went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Junior Brother Xuanzhen is not an outsider, so Brother Yu got straight to the point. "Chu Xuanying, the most senior among the cultivators in Qingcheng, put down the tea cup and raised a single palm in return. , "I came to Wulonggou to disturb my junior brother, because I have something to ask for." Yu He gently waved his hand and said: "Senior Brother Chu, if you don't mention the word "please", you will kill me! There are dozens of people in this Xuanzhen Temple seeking shelter. In the Qingcheng Immortal Sect, I usually receive the care and kindness of my senior fellow apprentices. Whenever I can help my junior fellow apprentices, I just ask. " "Junior brother is indeed a kind and chivalrous person," Chu Xuanying quickly flattered. One sentence. His face was slightly red, and he hesitated for a while before he asked hesitantly: "I wonder if Junior Sister Qingling is well lately, and is she in the observation room now?" Yu He raised his eyebrows, and he was thinking the same thing as expected. They came to Ning Qingling, but they didn¡¯t know why this group of Qingcheng masters came to beg their junior sister. Before Yu He could answer, the bamboo curtain behind him flickered, and Ning Qingling walked out with gentle steps. Junior sister Xiao Ning bowed to the Qingcheng monks in the room and asked softly: "Qing Ling is late to greet you, I hope you will forgive me for this." Then there was a "hurrah" sound, and the twenty or so people in the main hall All the Qingcheng monks stood up and bowed to Ning Qingling meticulously in return. This situation made it difficult for Yu He to continue sitting. He quickly stood up and bowed with him. Ning Qingling was very surprised when she saw this battle. She glanced at Yu He secretly, but Yu He shook his head gently at her. Both of them were confused, so they had to say hello first and let the Qingcheng monks sit down again. "Chu Xuanying is an honest man who is clumsy in speech, so he winked at his junior brother Xie Xuanguang. Xie Xuanguang took a sip of tea, lowered his head and thought for a few breaths, and then said: "Since Junior Brother Xuanzhen and Junior Sister Qingling moved to Qingcheng, in the past few decades, several of our brothers have been busy refining Qi and practicing swords. I never helped Junior Brother Xuanzhen and Junior Sister Qingling, but always came to Xuanzhen to watch and drink and eat, which disturbed Junior Brother and Junior Sister. I felt very guilty. I shared a small gift with Senior Brother Chu and Senior Brother Sun. I would like to express my feelings to you, and ask my junior fellow apprentices to accept it with a smile." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and took out a mahogany box carved with cloud patterns, and personally delivered it to Yu He. Yu He also stood up, pushed his hands outward, and did not dare to shout. But Xie Xuanguang insisted on Yu He accepting it, and even Chu Xuanying and Sun Xuanzong also tried to persuade him, so Yu He had to carefully take the mahogany box. Don't look at this box, which is only one foot square, but it is really tight. It is obvious that the items contained in it are not light. Yu He couldn't open it to check in person. He placed the mahogany box next to the futon and said solemnly: "The three senior brothers are all senior cultivators of the Qingcheng Immortal Sect. As the saying goes, elders dare not refuse gifts. This It¡¯s a great gift, so I accepted it shamelessly. It¡¯s just that the three senior brothers were so unreasonable, which made me and my junior sister very frightened. "Why are you so polite?" " Ning Qingling couldn't stand the formal rhetoric, and thought to herself, why are these Qingcheng monks just like the old masters in the mortal world? Since you have something to ask for, just say no and send a gift first. If there is any difficulty later, it will be hard to refuse. So she raised her sleeves to cover her mouth and said with a slight smile: "Brother Xie, why don't you tell me why you are here? If our senior brother Xuanzhen is a drunkard, I will have to go to the kitchen to help him." Xie Xuanguang was deeply moved when he heard this. He took a breath, gritted his teeth secretly, and then revealed all the intentions of the Qingcheng cultivators. It turns out that this?More than a dozen Qingcheng masters are going to Huashan Chaoyang Peak next month to participate in the establishment ceremony of the Five Mountains Immortal Sect. They came to Wulonggou Xuanzhen Temple in groups today because they wanted to find Ning Qingling to replace them. The sacrificial fire was opened to refine a batch of life-preserving elixirs. Gein suddenly heard a secret message back to the Qingcheng Immortal Sect yesterday, saying that the old demons at the Tianshan Headquarters of the Northwest Demon Sect summoned their disciples and assembled an unprecedented formation composed of tens of thousands of Demon Sect monks. Kill towards Huashan Mountain in Xiyue. Among the leaders are not only famous old demons such as Wei Xingge, Ancestor Xuanmin, Hunyuan Wujisou, Seven-fingered Scholar, Four Saints of Tianshan, and Qingtu Sanren who have traveled across the northwest, but also the Demon Sect "" who has been in seclusion for three hundred years. The Ten Palaces of Yama". These ten people borrowed the names of the ten heavenly kings of the underworld in Persian Buddhism and called themselves King Guang of Qin, King of Chujiang, King of Song Dynasty, King of Five Features, King of Yama, King Bian Cheng, King of Taishan, King of Pingping, King of City, and King of Samsara. All ten of them are old demons who have half stepped into the realm of earthly immortals. In the past, they assisted the ancestor of the Blood Demon, the previous headmaster of the Northwest Demon Sect, and launched several life-and-death sword duels with the Zhongnan and Kunlun sects. Three hundred years ago, a group of demons from the northwest surrounded Kunlun Mountain for seven days and seven nights. They were about to break into the secret realm of Xiaoyaochi of the Kunlun Immortal Sect. In the end, the masters of the Kunlun Immortal Sect sacrificed three treasures to fight back and fought back. Xiaoyaozi, the acting leader, was sent to help with the purple and green swords and the Haotian Mirror. Only then did he cooperate with the inside and outside, and defeated the Demon Sect miserably. King Yama of the Tenth Palace was seriously injured in this battle, and he has since retired to the cliffs of Tianshan Mountain, but he hopes to cultivate the earthly immortal path and come out of the mountain to wash away his shame. This time, I don¡¯t know who the person with the lotus tongue actually invited these ten unparalleled evil demons out. A group of old demons raised up the black clouds and marched towards Mount Huashan in Xiyue with great fanfare. But unfortunately, as soon as they reached Tumen Pass in Liangzhou, they ran into more than three thousand righteous monks from the northwest immortal sects such as Shushan, Kunlun, Qilian, Xingxiuhai Fairyland, Lancangjiang, and Tongtianhe. These two groups of people are really enemies when they meet, and they are extremely jealous. Without saying a word, they started fighting on the spot. Nearly ten thousand cultivators from the Demon Sect set up the ancient immortal formation. The ancestors of the ten palaces, Yama, formed the Blue Falling Underworld Ghost Crying Formation, and the ancestors of the Swallowing Heaven even held the innate sword in their hands, and launched the famous Great Immortal Killing Sword Formation. And the northwest side of the Taoist Gate did not show weakness. Zhongnan Mountain¡¯s Quanzhen Demon-Conquering Formation shook the mountains and rivers, Kunlun Mountain¡¯s Golden Mother Tianhe Formation stretched across the void, Qilian Mountain¡¯s Qiantian Divine Fire Formation, Xingxiu Sea¡¯s Zhoutian Star Formation, Lancang River and Tongtian River The Nine-bending Yellow River Formation is also mysterious and unpredictable. The monks on both sides each showed their magical powers, and the battle was fought in a narrow road until the sky was dark, the earth was dark, the sun and the moon were dim. However, the manpower of the two Taoist and Demonic sects was too far apart. After fighting for a day and a night, the northwest Taoist monks were exhausted and lost nearly half of their power. They had no choice but to leave in defeat. When this news reached the land of Yunnan and Shu, all the monks in the southwest Taoist sect were shocked. Originally, at the ceremony for the establishment of the Five Sacred Immortal Sect, masters from the Southwest and Northwest Dao sects gathered together. Even if the Northwest Demon Sect brought the Southwest Demon Sect together to cause trouble, the situation between the two sides would be a half-pound versus eighty-two at best. Moreover, it coincides with the civil strife in the Poison Sect, and the Southwest Demon Sect must not be able to put together any decent formation. Coupled with the favorable time, place, and people, the Taoist monks fully thought that even if a life-and-death sword fight broke out on the Chaoyang Peak of Huashan Mountain, , I also have a chance to win here. "Unexpectedly, the demon ancestors from the Tianshan Mountain Headquarters of the Northwest Demon Sect actually came out in full force and launched a massive battle of tens of thousands of people. They defeated the Northwest Dao Sect in defeat. Now without the reinforcements from the Northwest Dao Sect, only the Five Mountains Immortal Sect and the Southwest Dao Sect were left to support the situation, which was obviously short of manpower. On the other hand, the Northwest Demon Sect's group of cultivators were victorious because of their overwhelming momentum, and Xiyue Huashan was in danger. So the monks who were ordered to go to Chaoyang Peak to observe the ceremony were all panicked. These people originally had a wishful thinking, thinking that they would go to Huashan for a walk and get back a fortune without any danger. But now that the Demon Sect is unstoppable, if they try to refuse, they will be accused of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and they will not be able to speak to the master in the sect. Therefore, the Qingcheng monks who are going to Mount Huashan in Xiyue next month are searching for spiritual treasures and medicines, hoping to refine a batch of life-saving and rejuvenating elixirs to take with them in case of emergency. If the situation on Chaoyang Peak goes bad and the demon sect cultivators massacre everyone, if they swallow a spiritual pill, they might be able to get a chance to escape. "However, the Qingcheng sect specializes in swordsmanship, and the monks in the sect have always regarded the art of alchemy and stone as a side sect and scorned it. Therefore, even if Chu Xuanying and the other three elders and the Qingcheng Seven Swords gathered together the heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they could not find the alchemy master to open the furnace and combine the elixirs in a hurry. After thinking hard for a while, I suddenly remembered that Junior Sister Qingling of Wulonggou Xuanzhen Temple was an expert in cooking. She was good at cooking with rare treasures from heaven and earth, and eating them was like taking a spiritual elixir. Although these Qingcheng monks are conservative, their vision and knowledge are not bad. Just imagine those who can use various medicinal materials to make delicious dishes. They must have practiced the way of alchemy to an extremely profound level. Only then can they return to their original nature and reduce the bitterness of medicinal materials. A mouthful of freshness and sweetness. So Ning Qingling became a life-saving straw in the eyes of these people, causing more than 20 people to eagerly come to their homes to beg for a pot of life-saving elixir. ? ?Xuan Guang explained all the details in one breath. The three elders of Qingcheng bowed to Ning Qingling and said: "Those who are about to be robbed, please ask my junior sister to combine the elixir with her skillful hands to save their lives!" Ning Qingling glanced at Yu He At a glance, I saw that my senior brother was in a daze. She coughed lightly, and Yu He was shaken and came back to his senses. What Xie Xuanguang said also made Yu He¡¯s original plan come to nothing. Seeing how miserable Qi Zhao was, he originally planned to disguise himself with Ning Qingling, sneak into the monks of the Yangdu Sect, secretly protect Qi Zhao, and then wait for an opportunity to rescue the Yangdu Sect monk while the two sides were fighting. Hundreds of junior disciples. But now the situation has reversed, and the Demon Sect in the Northwest has become a menacing attack, and Yu He does not want to watch the demon sect kill the monks in Qingcheng who are familiar with him, not to mention the former Yunnan Branch of Luoxiao Sword Gate. Fellow disciples will also go to Huashan Chaoyang Peak to watch the ceremony and help out. For a moment, Yu He was in a dilemma and had no idea. Hearing Ning Qingling cough slightly, Yu He quickly put away his confused thoughts. At present, more than twenty masters of the Qingcheng Sect were sitting in front of him, and they could not allow him to have any more random thoughts. For the current plan, he could only take one step at a time. Yu He nodded towards Ning Qingling, clasped his fists and said to the third elder of Qingcheng: "Combining medicine and making elixirs is just a trivial matter. Why do you need all the senior brothers to mobilize forces like this? My junior sisters and I will serve you." Chu Xuanying and others were overjoyed when they heard this. All the Qingcheng monks in the room stood up and bowed to Yu He and Ning Qingling to thank them. While Yu He returned the gift, he thought to himself: This is a big favor, and it will be convenient for him to seek help from the Qingcheng Immortal Sect in the future. After a few more polite greetings, each Qingcheng disciple took out more or less a portion of the spiritual material and precious medicine. It was unpredictable whether the trip to Huashan would be good or bad. What they took out were all treasures packed at the bottom of the box. For a while, the hall of Xuanzhen Temple overflowed with precious light and filled with strange fragrance. Ning Qingling has a smart mind and naturally understands the key points. She took matters into her own hands, sorted these spiritual materials into categories, and put them into the medicine box. Any medicinal materials that were not suitable for use were returned to their owners one by one. There were other monks who were still short of a few auxiliary medicines. Ning Qingling didn't care too much and said that she would make up for them when the furnace was opened. The Qingcheng monks thanked him profusely and promised countless benefits in return on the spot. Yu He and Ning Qingling also knew that it was difficult to know whether they would live or die in Huashan, so they allowed these people to talk as much as they wanted, and they just laughed. After sorting out the medicinal materials, Yu He persuaded them to have dinner with them at Xuanzhen Temple. However, these twenty people seemed to have no intention of drinking and dining. After agreeing on a time to collect the elixirs, they all left. The noisy central hall returned to calm, Ning Qingling shook her head and sighed: "This time will require seven days and seven nights of combining elixirs. Senior brother, you have to watch over sister Zhaoer carefully." Unexpectedly, Yu He rolled his eyes and suddenly said: "Junior sister, first Don't rush to start the fire. The chaos is coming. We have to move all the dozens of people in Xuanzhen Temple to a safe place." Ning Qingling looked up in surprise and asked: "Brother, are you going to make an enemy of Qingcheng because of Sister Zhao'er?" "No!" Yu He waved his hand and sighed, "I suspect that the remnants of those red-bearded puppet monks are hiding in the Five Mountains Immortal Sect. If this is really the case, these evils must be eliminated. But if I take action against the people of the Wuyue Immortal Sect, I am afraid that the Southwest Dao Sect will think that I am in league with the Demon Sect, and then Xuanzhen Guan will be in danger." Ning Qingling's expression changed. He asked hurriedly: "Then where is the safe place that senior brother mentioned?" "In the southwestern Yunnan region, Chengjiang Prefecture measures the river, and there is a ten thousand-year-old evil hiding outside the Immortal Relic Mansion at the bottom of Fuxian Lake. You can temporarily leave the relics. If the trip to Huashan does not cause trouble, we will return to Wulonggou in Qingcheng Mountain. If trouble does occur, we will go overseas to the South China Sea. The Nandi White Jade Tomb in front of Tianya Hai is also a place. "The blessed land of Chuxian Family!" "Why are they all in such dark places?" Ning Qingling flattened her mouth without revealing anything, slowly put away the medicine box, and stood up and said, "Now that senior brother has a perfect plan, , Qingling should obey." Yu He took a sip of tea and replied absently: "In the midst of a catastrophe of cause and effect, how can you avoid disaster if you don't carefully plan it?" Ning Qingling stood up. , gently opened the bamboo curtain, turned to look at Yu He again. She hesitated for a long time, but just let out a silent sigh, and then walked towards the back hall. As they walked, Junior Sister Xiao Ning sighed and complained in her heart: Senior Brother, Senior Brother! There is no place in this vast world where you can't live, so why do you have to go to Huashan to cause trouble and get stained with blood? The southwest storm is coming. Why don't you and I take our sisters and go far away to the far end of the world, hide in a place where others can't find it, cultivate and weave, and enjoy ourselves? Wouldn't it be best?
