The Lord who use immortals as food

"Sorry, Miss Ming, I'm still very busy right now." Pei Ye said seriously.

"Okay." The woman pursed her lips slightly, "Then I will continue to wait."

Pei Ye couldn't help but smile, and said in a low voice: "That's it, Miss Ming, because I was in an unstable state of mind, I was invaded by the Immortal Lord's edict before. The kitten said it can't be broken or established, so I'm trying hard to establish it. 'stand up."

"But if I fail to establish a complete state of mind, the imperial edict will continue to invade through the cracks. When it can affect my mind, I will have to commit suicide." Pei Ye said, "So I think, Ming Girl, you are burdened with [Zhan Xin] and [Mingjing Bingjian], is there any way to postpone it?"

"." Ming Qitian was silent.

"No, it's okay. You have already said that matters of state of mind can only be solved from within." Pei Ye smiled, "I'm working hard, Miss Ming. I just want to confirm it with you."

"Can you take a look at it?" The woman raised two fingers.

Pei Ye was startled for a moment and gently put his forehead against it.

The sudden feeling of illumination made him tremble. With the woman's glance, Pei Ye was able to see the parts of his mind that were submerged by the imperial edict.

The dark and thick viscosity seemed to be an indescribable ugliness growing on the seabed that had been lightless for thousands of years. The squirming under this light made Pei Ye feel chills all over his body.

".It's very serious." Ming Qitian retracted her finger, "Last time we saw it, it should have been some time. But these days, are you still overdrawing your mental state?"

"."

Ming Qitian slightly lowered her eyebrows: "You are mentally unstable, which makes [Quail Head] unable to do anything, right?"

"Yes, Miss Ming."

"If you have a complete mental state, you can use [Quail Head] to resist the imperial edict, but if the Immortal Lord really comes, you still can't resist it, right?"

"Yes, Miss Ming, no matter how intact her mental state is, she is still a mortal, and there will always be loopholes in front of the Immortal Lord - but as long as I can control the imperial edict, the Immortal Lord will not be able to come."

Ming Qitian was silent for a moment: "I can clear away the 'consciousness' that invades your mind, because it is the power of cutting the heart; or, if the poison of the imperial edict occurs in my own mind, I can also resist it, because 'Mingjing Bingjian' 'There is no defect or omission. But only if these things happen in your mind, there is nothing you can do about them."

"I think so, Miss Ming." Pei Ye smiled.

"But it actually could have been possible."

".What?"

"Because through Zhanxin, our mental state can be opened to each other." The woman looked at him quietly, "I have entered your mind state, and I can also open my mental state to you. If we trust each other , reveal everything, then in the 'heart-to-heart connection', [Mingjing Bingjian] can shine into your state of mind."

"."

"But it can't be done now." The woman suddenly made a somewhat meaningless movement. She looked down at her hands, "You can't enter my state of mind now, because I practice the "Gushe Heart Sutra" and it will eliminate everything. .It’s impossible for you to be ‘in tune’ with Gushe’s heart.”

This is the first time Pei Ye has heard a woman talk about his feelings. Of course he does not doubt the truth of the woman's words, but he still can't help but ask: "Why?"

Ming Qitian tilted her head and looked at him quietly: "Because Gushe is the heart of heaven, 'The heart is like a deep spring, neither cuddling nor loving, serving as a minister to the immortals and saints.' How do you reflect such a state of mind? Human beings. Whatever it has, it has no weaknesses.”

"." Pei Ye felt the strangeness of the woman's tone and said slightly confused, "Miss Ming, isn't the 'Gu She's Heart' your state of mind?"

So for the first time, Pei Ye saw this woman smiling and said, "If I already had the 'Gushe Heart', I wouldn't even have to go down the mountain."

"."

"I am only at the first level of [Ice and Snow], [Wuwu], and [Heaven's Heart] in "Gushe"."

"." The woman meant that she was just a mortal cultivating immortality. However, no matter how Pei Ye looked at it, he couldn't see how the woman who looked like a god moonlighting in front of him could take a step closer to "immortality". In other words, even if it is really the legendary Gushe God, he can really be more powerful than the quiet her.

Pei Ye couldn't find a suitable description for a while.

But the topic was over, and the woman said seriously: "So first of all, you can no longer overdraw your mental state. This is a matter of life and death. And the establishment of a mental state is a process of seeking to realize the mind and things at the same time - in When you are constantly searching, you can stop and think more.”

".Um."

At this time, the door of the small courtyard was gently pushed open, and Wudong was standing at the door with his sword pressed.

"I guess I didn't disturb you two?"

Pei Ye stood up and moved a stone bench. Wudong waved his hand: "I won't sit down anymore. Let me tell you about the situation."

When the old man walked in, he picked up the teapot on the table and drank it in one gulp.

"We have already captured Xiao Tingshu." Wudong said softly, "The remaining four people agreed to completely investigate Kongtong, but if there are traces of the Huansi Tower, we should work together to hoe it."

"." Pei Ye still remembered the near-deadlock situation just now. Lianxin Pavilion seemed to be absolutely unwilling to give up Kongtong's interests to cooperate with the investigation.

"Because it's pushed to the bottom, it's impossible for Kongtong to truly stand with Huansilou." Wudong said, "Only by being 'public and enlightened' can we gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty. This is what Xianrentai has worked hard to spread over the past thirty years. , Now it can be considered to be somewhat effective.”

"This is also where we will stand next. We stood together with Kongtong and pushed the Huansi Tower to the opposite side. You saved those three disciples and you did a very good job - what happened?"

Pei Ye smiled sheepishly: "...I thought you were going to arrest them all."

"Just because I can die doesn't mean I always want to die." Wudong said hoarsely, "Toughness that finds the weak point is the sharpest sword, and a sword is always more deadly than a hammer that messes around."

"You did a good job, Pei Ye." Wudong looked at him with indifferent eyes, "My original intention was for you to seize some clues about Huanshenglou's action, but you not only killed the real culprit, but also uncovered Xiao Tingshu— —Tell me about it.”

Pei Ye told Hejian what he saw and heard in these days, and Wudong also told him in detail about his experience in Jinyuzhai.

"So you haven't received the message from [Liu Yun] yet?"

"No."

"Well, when I came here, I saw that the Kongtong Formation was very deep. Maybe it was trapped."

"There is another thing, sir." Pei Ye took out the paper and ink and carefully copied the unfamiliar sword pattern from the sword dragon. "The main formations on those swords were derived from the star worm, but there is another one that is different. ”

Take the paper without holes.

"Look, I don't know what the purpose of this is, and why he added this formation alone. Maybe if we figure it out, we will be one step closer to their purpose."

Wudong frowned and took a closer look: "I don't know much about formations either. I'm afraid I have to write a letter to Pu Huaimeng about this matter——"

However, the old man's words suddenly stopped, and his expression gradually became serious. He stared at the piece of paper, his eyebrows furrowed and his face darkened, as if water was dripping from his face.

"I recognize this formation pattern." He said softly, "This is. [String Thread]."

"."

Pei Ye looked at the old man's waist, where the strange weapon named [Jade Tiger] hung quietly. He still remembered Zhang Meiqing saying that this was a very unique and superb secret technique of weaponry, and the most successful use in Shaolong was this long sword.

Both the old man and the young man were silent for a while. After a long time, Wudong stroked the hilt of the sword and said, "I have written it down. In any case, we have figured out the path now - the soul-stealing sword in the Huanshu Tower, the soul-stealing pearl is for The explanation given by Lianxin Pavilion for the Kongtong Demon Sword and those at the bottom of the back cliff is that they are part of the [Jianbelly Mountain].”

"The sword in [Jianbelly Mountain] can kill people, do you need soul-stealing beads as an offering?"

"This is exactly what those four people denied at the same time." Wudong said, "They said it was impossible for the sword to move, let alone to survive and kill people."

Wudong looked at Pei Ye and tapped the long sword in his hand.

".So they don't know what kind of formations are carved on these swords?"

"I believe they are telling the truth." Wudong said, "Kongtong is a loose place and is a place that is easily eroded, but no matter what aspect, I don't believe that the entire [Lianxin Pavilion] will be destroyed by joy. Lou has complete control. In other words, if this is the case, they have 10,000 ways to make Zhang Jingbi disappear quietly. "

"."

"In addition, if our prediction is correct, there are only three people left in the Xuanmen of Huansilou. If they are operating in secret, it is impossible for them to all have their identities on the surface." Wudong said, "So I believe that Jian Fushan has always been managed by the leader, and the rest of the people have limited knowledge.”

Pei Ye said softly: "Fortunately, Xiao Tingshu is bound."

"I hope he will die, which means we have indeed exposed everything." Wudong said coldly, "Now that a [Ye Que] chooses to put his life in someone else's hands. It only shows that their plan can still advance. And there’s something deeper that we haven’t discovered yet.”

"Yes." Pei Ye nodded, "But they don't have one or two layers of veil left - figure out the reasons why the entire [Jianbelly Mountain] comes and go, and find out the person responsible and designing. They will have nothing to hide." ”

"That's right." Wudong closed his eyes, "Next, we may have to compete with those people in the dark for time."

"Besides, I still have an unknotted thread on my hand." Pei Ye said, "How did Zhang Meiqing react and die after seeing the 'Sword Jiao'? His trajectory can also indicate the enemy's fate. "

Wudong nodded vigorously: "That's right. All parties in Lianxin Pavilion are sensitive and have gathered a lot of attention. It's all push and pull from the court and the sect. You can't help much, so it's better to go to Zhang Meiqing's line. So we are”

Pei Ye remembered the first time they met Bowang and smiled: "One is right and the other is strange?"

There was also a rare scary smile on the old man's face, and he said hoarsely: "One is good and the other is strange."

"But now you come with me first." Wudong said, "I gave them time to sort out the origin of [Jianbelly Mountain]. After hearing this, you and I will go our separate ways."

"Okay." Pei Ye raised his sword and nodded, cupping his fists and bowing deeply to the woman who was sitting peacefully.

But Wudong did not move. He also looked at the woman and said politely: "Master Mingjian, the Immortal Platform is temporarily weak here. A frontal investigation may require a strong push or a sudden assassination. If necessary, I hope you can Hold on to your sword for now."

"." Pei Ye felt a little uncomfortable. The words he just asked the woman to leave for a while are still in my ears, but now I want to use them whenever I want.

Especially this has always been something he tried hard to avoid. Even though the woman never cared how much she paid for him, those friendships have always been heavy in the young man's heart. So he is even more unwilling to cause trouble to the woman through his relationship.

After all, the Glazed Sword Master is too high and far away, and Pei Ye is too low and too close. When people use him, they can mobilize the Glazed Sword Master. This is really uncomfortable for Pei Ye.

Especially now that the woman is a distinguished guest of Yunlang sincerely invited by Kongtong, her status is already embarrassing. She is both from the Sword Sect in the world, but she is on the side of the imperial court. Even if she doesn't care, Pei Ye can't help but care.

So he pursed his lips, had no choice but to bite the bullet and raised his hand again to emphasize: "Wu Hejian, Master Mingjian and I just met by chance. I am grateful for Liuli's help. I don't want to put Yun Lang in trouble again."

"." The courtyard was silent for a moment.

Until Wudong slowly raised his eyebrows and looked at him up and down in confusion: "We, Xianrentai and Yunlang Mountain, have been supporting each other for thirty years. What does this have to do with you?"

".ah?"
