Nightwatcher

Facing the terrified Son of Heavenly Sect, Xu Qi'an twitched his lips: "Guess."

The Holy Son of Tianzong opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Xu Qian's sense of mystery was so strong that he fell into great confusion and loss.

Accidentally chatted to death? Obviously, this matter involves the secrets of Tianzong, Li Lingsu probably won't tell me the truth, if he wants to get information, he can't ask openly, and the exchange mode doesn't work either, he has to say it voluntarily :

"For you, this is a secret that Tianzong cannot disclose to the public, but for me, it is something that I knew hundreds of years ago."

Hundreds of years ago, Li Lingsu opened his mouth slightly and looked at him blankly.

who is he?

How many hundred years has he lived?

Except for Confucianism, any system can only have a long life if it is above the fourth rank. Does this mean that Xu Qian is at least the third rank? No, although he has cunning tactics, he can't even beat Sister Qing.

In an instant, various thoughts flashed through Li Lingsu's mind.

"You can't even beat Sister Qing, how many hundred years have you lived?" He frowned and asked.

"I can't even beat a fourth rank, but the Gu clan can do it, and I can do it." Xu Qi'an said with a smile.

Li Lingsu was dumb for a moment, unable to say anything to refute, and felt more and more that Xu Qian was mysterious and unpredictable.

Xu Qi'an continued: "I know, but it doesn't mean I know the inside story."

Li Lingsu just opened his mouth, but closed it. He wanted to question just now:

Since you know the secret of Tianzong, why did you ask me just now?

As a result, I got an answer. I didn't expect the other party's logic to be so meticulous.

The Son of Tianzong pondered for a moment and said:

"I don't know more than you, but it is true. Of course, this will not be recorded in any classics, but it cannot be hidden from any disciple. The reason is very simple. The Tianzong has been passed down for thousands of years, and masters come forth in large numbers. Promoted to the third rank After reaching the extraordinary level, one can have an extremely long lifespan.

"It is reasonable to say that even if some seniors are damaged due to factors such as catastrophe and battles, it is impossible for all of them to die. However, among the three sects of heaven, earth and man, there are very few extraordinary masters.

"Dizong cultivates merits and virtues, but there is a risk of becoming a demon. The human sect's karma is burning, and there are almost no Taoist leaders who have survived the catastrophe. So, what about our Tianzong?

"Tianzong's supreme forgetfulness is the way, which is not the same as being burned by karma and falling into the devil's way. What is the problem of Tianzong?

"Many disciples have such doubts in their hearts, but they are destined not to be able to get the answers. Only the elders of the division and a few outstanding disciples know the method of Tianzong's practice. The higher the level, the easier it is to encounter the danger of "disappearing".

"No one knows where they went. I guess even the elders of Shimen don't know. Perhaps, only the Taoist leaders of the past dynasties know, but they never say."

After finishing speaking, Li Lingsu looked at Xu Qi'an, and asked for advice as an exchange of information:

"Senior Xu knows?"

These things are Tianzong's secrets, and he would never reveal them to others, but Xu Qian, who claimed to have lived for hundreds of years, made it clear. Li Lingsu thought that the other party might know the inside story better than himself.

It seems that you don't know the truth either. Just as I was about to pluck the wool from you, you plucked it back. Xu Qi'an maintained his persona as a master of Taoism, and let out a sigh:

"Where did Master Dao go?"

Li Lingsu's pupils shrank suddenly, and his expression was dull. After a while, his frozen eyes trembled slightly, and his breathing became rapid.

In an instant, he seemed to have figured out the doubts that he hadn't figured out for a long time, or, some of the previous doubts had been answered.

"Thank you senior for clarifying the confusion!"

The son of Tianzong made a sincere salute.

I didn't say anything, I used interrogative sentences Xu Qi'an muttered silently, he didn't continue to dwell on this topic, and asked instead:

"How did you confirm that if you go west, the Eastern sisters won't pursue you deeply?"

Li Lingsu said "Hey" and said:

"Because they were going to the west. To be precise, they went to Leizhou. They seemed to be looking for a pagoda. I heard from Sister Rong that whether her master can be resurrected or not depends on this trip."

The Futu Pagoda belongs to Buddhism just by its name; Leizhou is a state close to the Western Regions and belongs to Dafeng; Dongfang Wanrong is a wizard, and her master must also be a wizard.

Xu Qi'an frowned, it was difficult to combine the information, "Tell me carefully."

"I don't know the details. I only know that Sister Rong's master is Nalan Tianlu, the former city lord of Jingshan City, and the father of the former city lord Nalan Yan. He was killed by Wei Yuan during the Battle of Shanhaiguan."

Li Lingsu glanced over Xu Qi'an's shoulder, and saw his sister-in-law sitting on the boulder in the distance, looking at her with a smile.

His heart sank, and he lowered his head quickly. He suspected that the sister-in-law was peeping at him, but he had no evidence.

A woman with mediocre appearance is not on his list, let alone her man is a terrifying figure.

My damn charm.

The Son of Tianzong calmed down and said:

"But you know, the Witch God Sect is good at cultivating the primordial spirit. The body is easily destroyed, but the primordial spirit is hard to destroy. As far as I know, that Nalan Tianlu is a second-grade rain master. He must have died but not stiff back then. Take away."

What does this have to do with the Buddha Pagoda? Xu Qi'an pondered.

the capital.

In Jingxiu Palace, the crown prince was sitting in the warm hall, wearing a python robe and holding a teacup in his hand.

"Mother and concubine, half a month later, and the baby will be enthroned."

When the prince said this, his voice was calm, as if he had the calmness of a landslide in front of him without changing his face.

This is the detail he has been emphasizing to himself recently. The deceased father, Wei Yuan who died in battle, and Wang Shoufu who is still standing in the court, these once powerful figures all have a stable aura.

As the king of a country who is about to ascend the throne, he naturally has to be happy and angry.

The graceful and well-maintained Concubine Chen was radiant. She walked to the Prince's side, touched his sleeve lightly, and said excitedly:

"Okay, okay, I finally made it through, I finally made it through."

Tears welled up in the charming mature woman's eyes.

She rejoiced for a moment, then frowned suddenly: "You have to prevent the fourth prince from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

The prince smiled and shook his head:

"No, the child has sat in the East Palace for more than ten years. Whether it is public opinion or the court, his heart is towards me. I am orthodox.

"Now that the father and the emperor have passed away, the country cannot live without a king. The whole government and the public are looking forward to the boy's early ascension to the throne. Moreover, after the notice was posted, the boy's reputation among the people immediately increased. The fourth brother is unpopular and poses no threat. .

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Wang Shoufu for all this. Without his help, the fourth brother might still be able to rely on Wei Yuan's henchmen to struggle."

Concubine Chen smiled and said, "After you ascend the throne, you should rely more on Wang Shoufu."

"The child understands."

Concubine Chen nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly said bitterly: "After you ascend the throne, Concubine Mother wants that woman to enter Changchun Palace."

The Changchun Palace is a cold palace, so it goes without saying who that woman refers to.

The crown prince frowned and said, "Concubine mother, after your child ascends the throne, you will be the master of the harem. Why bother about a position."

He understood what the concubine mother meant. The concubine mother wanted to be the queen mother, and even more wanted to put that woman in the cold palace.

But he is the queen's nominal son, and the queen is his aunt. Unless the queen makes an unforgivable mistake, even if he ascends the throne, he cannot be deprived of the title of queen.

"snort!"

Concubine Chen said in a low voice: "I understand the prince's concerns. The empress has long lost her morality and is not worthy of being a mother. Let me tell you."

After hearing this, the prince was dumbfounded and didn't speak for a while.

He never expected that the empress and Wei Yuan would have such a past.

"But now Wei Yuan is dead, there is no proof of death." The crown prince frowned.

"If you want to commit a crime, there is no excuse." Concubine Chen sneered.

"Let me think about it."

East Palace.

After the prince returned, he immediately sent someone to summon Wang Shoufu.

He told Concubine Chen's thoughts to Wang Shoufu, and asked, "What's your opinion, Lord Shoufu?"

The gray-haired Wang Shoufu Huan was in a daze for a moment, and sighed: "So that's how it is. Your Highness has solved my doubts for many years."

After a pause, he said:

"Your Highness will ascend to the Great Treasure. When making decisions, the first thing to consider is the gains and losses of interests, not blood relatives. If you want to abolish the empress for this reason, it is reasonable. But have you ever thought about it, what is the face of the royal family?

"After you ascended the throne, the face of the royal family is your face. After the death of the first emperor, everything in the past was blamed on him. So far, a new dynasty has been ushered in. If something like this happens again at this juncture, your highness will lose face and reputation. Not only the queen, but also you.

"Taking a step back, even if these highnesses don't care about it and insist on taking this matter seriously, then Wei Yuan's name behind him, Xu Qi'an, will agree?"

The prince's breathing was stagnant, and his expression was a little stiff. In the next second, his face was as usual, and he said slowly:

"Master Shoufu's opinion is very pertinent, it's because I didn't think carefully."

He took the topic lightly, and said with a smile: "I heard that the daughter of Mr. Shoufu is going to be engaged to Xu New Year, a concubine?"

Wang Shoufu smiled immediately: "The auspicious date has been chosen, and we will get engaged in three months."

The prince smiled and said, "Don't forget to invite me to drink when the time comes."

The sun is just right today, wearing a red dress, dressed gorgeously, stepping on a dragon, swimming in the lake, twisting and twisting the waist of the water snake.

Huai Qing, who was dressed in simple but elegant clothes, stood on the bank holding the wine cup, looked at the useless Lin An and exclaimed, while laughing out loud like silver bells.

After Xu Qi'an left Beijing, she could clearly perceive the state of Lin'an, which can be said to have swept away the haze.

Although there will be times when I am in a daze, but generally speaking, I am still mostly happy.

The reasons include that after Joan's death, the atmosphere in the palace cleared up, and the crown prince was about to enthroned, Lin'an was happy for his brother, but Huai Qing believed that the biggest reason was Xu Qi'an.

"Before he left, what did he say to her? Or what did he promise?"

The eldest daughter of the emperor, who was as beautiful and beautiful as a lotus flower, frowned.

Dark poke got angry for a while, she looked to the horizon again, and muttered to herself:

"The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building."

The mess left by the emperor is nothing. The chaotic party in Yunzhou is the biggest challenge for the court, and it is also the biggest challenge for the prince who is about to ascend the throne.

On the narrow mountain road, three people rode in two, galloping quickly, with a cloud of dust behind them.

Before dusk, the three of Xu Qi'an came to a small town and planned to rest at the inn in the town for the night.

Sitting at the square table in the inn hall, Li Lingsu sipped the dirty wine and said doubtfully:

"Senior, why don't you go back to the capital, there are still things to deal with?"

In his mind, the three of them should immediately head north to the capital, but Xu Qian continued westward without any intention of returning to the capital.

"If you want to go to the capital, you can leave on your own." Xu Qi'an poured Mu Nanzhi a glass of wine.

"No, without you, I will lose the spell of moving stars and changing battles. Sister Rong and Sister Qing will catch me back sooner or later."

Li Lingsu touched his waist and shook his head again and again.

After a hasty dinner, the two parties went back to their rooms. Xu Qi'an took out a large water tank and a few pots of poisonous weeds from the fragments of the book on the ground, and placed them beside the bed, hoping that they could grow and evolve as they should under the nourishment of the reincarnation of the flower god. evolution.

"Well, I can't take out the book fragments in front of Li Lingsu in the future. He is probably number seven."

A long time ago, when Daoist Jin Lian introduced the members of the Tiandihui, he mentioned that No. 7 was hunted down and had an extraordinary relationship with Li Miaozhen.

Seventh and Li Lingsu are a perfect match. He also said that his savings are all on his younger sister Li Miaozhen. In other words, the fragments of the Earth Book are in Li Miaozhen's hands.

This is understandable, Li Lingsu does not have much confidence in whether she can escape the pursuit of her sisters.

The Book of the Earth was a gift from Daoist Jin Lian, and it is the magic weapon of the Dizong. In order to prevent this magic weapon from falling into the hands of others, it is understandable that Li Lingsu, who was prepared for the worst, gave the fragments of the Book of the Earth to his junior sister.

At this time, Xu Qi'an's heart was inexplicably touched, and he sensed the unique fluctuation of a certain magic weapon from the fragments of the underground book.

Tap the mirror lightly with your fingertips.

A conch inscribed with a spell fell to the table.

He grabbed the conch and brought it to his ear.

A man's voice came clearly: "You"

Xu Qi'an maintained a listening posture, for a long while, the conch was quiet, and there was no movement for a long time.

"you?"

Xu Qi'an fell into deep thought, did the second disciple of Jianzheng want to express something?

He made associations and used his brain for this, and finally a voice came from the conch that had been silent for a long time: "In"

"You are?"

Xu Qi'an frowned even tighter, thinking what does this mean, what does this second senior brother want to express?

He started to associate and use his brain for this.

Sadly, there is no sound in the conch anymore.

Xu Qi'an couldn't guess what the second senior brother meant, so he had no choice but to give up. He took off his shoes and socks, soaked his feet for a while, and was about to go to bed to rest, when his powerful hearing caught the subtle voice of the conch on the table:

"where"

Finally came the sound! Xu Qi'an repeated in a low voice: "You, where are you?"

He suddenly raised his voice: "Where are you?!"

A series of question marks flashed in Xu Qi'an's mind, what the second senior brother said was: where are you.

is asking for his location.

That's it?

It is probably because the distance is too far and the "signal" of Faluo is not good. Xu Qi'an made a guess in his heart, and responded:

"I'm on the border of Yongzhou, a place called Qingya Town."

After waiting for a long time, a voice came from Faluo: "Okay, yes."

Then there was an eternal silence.

It should be all right, the snail given by the supervisor is not good, the signal is so bad. While making complaints, he went to the cabinet and took out a clean bedding.

"Sleep over a little bit, the place you gave me is too small."

Xu Qi'an threw the quilt on the bed, and pushed Mu Nanzhi's shoulders.

"Why don't you open two rooms?" Mu Nanzhi turned her head, her bright eyes full of doubts.

"I'm worried that you're afraid to sleep alone."

Xu Qi'an took advantage of the opportunity to get into the quilt. Although they were sleeping on different quilts, the distance between the two of them was very close, so close that he could count the hair of the princess, so close that he could smell the unique fragrance of the reincarnation of the Flower God.

Mu Nanzhi glared at him, then turned around, facing the wall with his back.

Between the messy hair, the delicate white neck loomed.

Xu Qi'an leaned in, and Mu Nanzhi leaned in too, between the enemy's retreat and our advance, Mu Nanzhi was forced to the wall, unable to retreat.

She turned around, stared, and said angrily, "What do you want to do?"

I'm sorry, it was love Gu who made the first move just now. Xu Qi'an was silent for a while, unable to answer.

He stared at Mu Nanzhi's mediocre facial features, and whispered: "I, I want to see your appearance again, the real appearance."

Mu Nanzhi's face turned red instantly, even the roots of her ears turned red.

The two looked at each other in the dark, their breathing gradually became short of breath, and their heartbeat gradually increased.

A go up, A go up Just when Xu Qi'an was about to try his hand at turning his bicycle into a motorcycle, he suddenly heard the heartbeat of a third person.

Suddenly paled in shock, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the head of the bed.

A warlock in white stood there, silently looking at the men and women on the bed.
