The Lord who use immortals as food

The carriage stopped at a pavilion and waterside pavilion. Pei Ye got out of the carriage and followed Qi Zhaohua inside.

There were tall trees and autumn flowers in the courtyard, and people in various costumes were coming and going. Pei Ye could see them all. Not only were they all new and novel styles that he had never seen before, some of them were not even in the style of the Tang Dynasty.

Qi Zhaohua handed over a small mahogany sign, and a waiter led him up the stairs. Pei Ye now knew why this building was called "Star Reaching". It was built around a courtyard, and the hollow area was unimaginably large. A small garden with mountains and water.

Many light spots carried by lotus flowers rose from the small pool and flew towards the surrounding buildings. The guests stood on the upper floors to pick them.

"Inside is the 'little body-cleansing elixir' refined by Quanzhen Taoism. If you eat it, it will 'soothe your pores and make your skin and body pure'. If you want, wait for a moment in front of the balcony and you can pick one." Qi Zhaohua put his hands behind his hands. Speaking of.

Pei Ye looked at it with some curiosity: "Don't you want to spend money?"

"When you enter the building, you have spent money."

Seeing that the young man was curious, the two of them stood on the corridor and waited for a while. Sure enough, a few lotus flowers flew over. Pei Ye picked three of them. The two of them took it, and they were indeed refreshed.

"Quanzhen Dan can often be seen in Shenjing." Qi Zhaohua explained, "There are many types of pills. Sometimes if you have any problems with your practice or body, you might as well go to the Dan Tower to have a look. If there is a pill you want, they will not It’s easy to sell, just come to the store and talk about it.”

"Are you looking for Miss Xu?"

". It's better not to trouble your benefactor with such a small matter." Qi Zhaohua choked and smiled, "You can come to me. When you get familiar with me later, you don't have to look for anyone."

"profound."

"Besides," Qi Zhaohua paused, "just when you were talking to Enjun, did you keep calling her 'Miss Xu'?"

"." Pei Ye was stunned for a moment, "No."

He also realized this at this time. This was the way he addressed women of a similar age, but in the conversation he had just had with the woman, this kind of address did disappear from his mind subconsciously.

"Oh, if Enjun didn't say anything, it's best not to call her that." Qi Zhaohua warned, and then pondered, "Besides, there is no need to call her by name on weekdays."

"okay."

Qi Zhaohua nodded and said with a smile and sincerity: "Keep an appropriate distance from Enjun."

".profound."

"Whatever we do in the future, we will have more exchanges."

Pei Ye seemed to understand: "Who are they?"

Qi Zhaohua stopped, opened the door and said with a smile: "Don't you have 'many friends in Shenjing'? Have you forgotten us now?"

Pei Ye looked at her in horror, but the door had been pushed open.

In a single-room pavilion, four people were sitting on the floor. They were talking casually, but now they all turned their eyes over.

All are familiar faces.

Shang Lang, this young man is still very handsome now, but he is no longer the heroic figure wearing armor and holding a gun. He wears a robe and belt, and has his hair in a high bun. He looks very heroic and upright. During those few days at the Fenghuai County Government Office, sometimes Zhu Gaoyang was not around, so he would practice swordplay with him.

Pei Ye was very happy to see him now, but he didn't expect that Shang Lang's eyes were almost full of surprise.

Next to him, Xing Zhi was holding a cup of tea. He smiled at Pei Ye and raised his hand to handcuff him. This was exactly the scene in prison yesterday.

Pei Ye smiled sheepishly, thinking that the part of her escape plan involving spiritual energy manipulation was all her own, and she held her hand in gratitude.

The third person turned out to be Fang Jidao, who was asking something with the person next to him. His expression was a little reserved, but his eyes were bright.

This really surprised Pei Ye, and he subconsciously glanced at the woman next to him, but Qi Zhaohua didn't have a special expression. When the scholar looked over, she smiled slightly, raised her hand, and sat down next to Xing Zhi from a distance.

Pei Ye greeted Fang Jidao and was really surprised when his eyes moved to the last person next to him.

Yan Feiqing.

This Taoist priest with a clean temperament was actually present here. Fang Jidao was gesturing with some stumbles next to him, while he was contemplating with a serious expression. When Pei Ye came in, he looked up and said hello, then continued to lower his head in thought.

Pei Ye sat down next to Xing Zhi. It was actually the first time she saw this warlock wearing regular clothes. The coolness and neatness turned into looseness and leisure, and the hem of her skirt fell to the ground. She nodded and raised her glass and said with a smile: "We meet each other with a glass of wine, for You comfort Feng Chen.”

Pei Ye quickly raised his glass and took a drink, then put the glass down and said, "Thank you."

Xing Zhi smiled, covered his mouth with his sleeves and drank all the wine.

Pei Ye paused and asked curiously: "Master Xing, have you prepared this poem in advance?"

Xing Zhi was slightly startled, and Qi Zhaohua next to him curled his mouth and immediately tilted his head as if nothing had happened.

"." Xing Zhi held the wine glass for a while and glanced at Qi Zhaohua, "Oh yes."

She put down her wine glass and smiled gently at the boy.

Pei Ye nodded repeatedly as if "Sure enough," and said with a smile: "I think so! I used to read story books and see them reciting two lines of poems when the atmosphere was up. I always couldn't figure it out - although I haven't read it, but even if I have read a lot of poems, is it possible to recite them? They are all prepared in advance!

"That's true." Xing Zhi lowered his head and poured the wine for him again, "Why does Mr. Pei ask this?"

"I'm studying." The young man sighed, "In the past two months, I have been saying goodbye to people. Some people say goodbye properly, and some people just pass by in a hurry without having time to say anything."

Xing Zhi glanced at him gently: "It would be nice to read more books when you have time."

Suddenly he remembered: "You should know some words now?"

"I've already recognized a lot of them, okay!" Pei Ye felt quite ashamed of the past, "I've read almost a dozen sword books in the past two months!"

"Yeah, yeah, I've been looking at you with admiration for three days."

Pei Ye was startled: "Brother Zhu, how are you doing now?"

"It's nothing. The sect also used some ancient and harsh secret techniques to deal with his injuries. Although the road is narrow, we are not helpless after all." Talking about the man, Xing Zhi was silent for a moment, then quickly raised his head and smiled, "But There’s no need to worry. With his temperament, he never takes difficulties or dangers seriously. Who doesn’t have some bumps in the path of spiritual practice?”

Pei Ye nodded: "Seeing that you returned to Shenjing, I guessed that Brother Zhu is fine."

"I really wanted to stay in Dongting, but he asked me to come back and do business. He said he would come to Shenjing to find me later." Xing Zhi picked up a snack, "It's been more than half a month, and I don't know when he will come here ”

"Is there something urgent here in Shenjing? Is there any place where I can be used?"

"No, it's my own business."

Qi Zhaohua cooked a few fish fillets and distributed them to them: "Master Xing is about to enter Xuanmen and is preparing to be promoted to Zishou."

Pei Ye was surprised: "Congratulations!"

Xing Zhi motioned for him to put it in his mouth while it was still hot, and said with a vague smile: "Xuanmen is easy to talk about, but the quota for Zishou has not been decided yet."

Qi Zhaohua scooped lotus seed soup into a small bowl: "You are the best one, how can you let others snatch it away - who are you?"

Xing Zhi shook his head: "They are all from the great sect. Zhengyiyi, Yangyilou, direct descendants of the Zheng family."

Qi Zhaohua took back the small bowl, ate the lotus soup with a spoon, but looked at the empty space and said: "Okay, I will have a bite with my benefactor tomorrow."

Xing Zhi pursed her lips and raised her glass in an upright manner, saying respectfully: "Thank you, Young Master."

This toast was obviously not directed towards Qi Zhaohua, and Pei Ye couldn't help but be a little surprised.

But seeing that the two people had something to talk about, he turned around with his cup in hand - almost bumping into Shang Lang.

At some point, this young man sat cross-legged and smiled behind him, looking quite close to him: "Is the road going well?"

"." Pei Ye opened his mouth twice, but did not say the word "smooth", ". It's good. Where is Brother Shang, how are you doing lately?"

But he saw Shang Lang taking a breath, lowering his eyebrows and sighing, drinking without saying a word.

".What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing. There are some things at home, and life has not been easy recently."

".Oh." The two clinked their glasses and drank.

Shang Lang poured wine for him and suddenly said, "Hey, I heard that you captured Qiukui of Bowang, how powerful he is."

"Hahaha, hey! There's nothing to say." Pei Ye waved his hand, "Although the Sixth Life in the last scene was said to be able to enter the Sword Academy, even though I was only the Fourth Life at that time, even though I still had injuries on my body."

Shang Lang poured two more glasses of wine before listening to the young man's words, and nodded vigorously: "If I had known you were a genius, I would have said you would definitely win the first prize in Fenghuai!"

Pei Ye smiled and was a little confused: "Is there any?"

"There must be."

"profound."

"Eh? Speaking of which, this leader should be rewarded quite generously, right?" Shang Lang was curious.

Pei Ye was stunned for a moment: "Ah, that can't be said to be rich. But the sword is still very good. I use it all the time."

"Oh, there must be something else?"

Pei Ye was stunned for a moment. At this time, Fang Jidao, who was next to him, came over with a wine glass. He was the one who saluted the most politely: "Brother Pei, long time no see!"

Pei Ye also smiled and held his arm: "Brother Fang is in good spirits. What have you been busy with recently?"

"I have been studying in the Imperial College for the past two months." Fang Jidao subconsciously glanced at Qi Zhaohua over there, "It's the letter of recommendation given to me by the layman."

Pei Ye was surprised: "I'm going to the Imperial College too."

Fang Jidao's eyes widened: "Huh?"

"Um."

"Oh." The scholar seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just said, "Actually, I haven't been in prison these days."

"Um?"

The scholar held the cup and took a sip, his face full of hope and sadness: "I want to be admitted to Tenriyuan, but I feel that my level is not good enough."

It was another unfamiliar name, but Pei Ye didn't want to ask at this time and patted him on the shoulder: "If you succeed, you won't succeed if you don't, so don't worry too much."

However, Fang Jidao shook his head and said seriously: "The desire to seek the truth should not be taken casually."

He smiled happily and said, "I just asked this Master Xiaoyan a lot of questions. He is really knowledgeable in Taoism."

Pei Ye looked over and saw Yan Feiqing looking calmly at him and raising a glass to him.

At this time, Pei Ye understood that it was the disguise he had completed after knocking him unconscious, and he raised his glass and drank.

This world-famous Qingwei true biography always has a very clean temperament, her hair is not messy, and her clothes and boots are always the cleanest and neatest.

The two of them chatted like this for several days on the road, but the road was already lonely. When they met at the banquet, they had chatted enthusiastically for many rounds, but this person still looked cold and cold, as if he had escaped from the atmosphere. There is really the mysterious spirit of Taoism in it.

Qi Zhaohua smiled and said: "Xiaoyan is our number one thug. If you have any trouble in Shenjing, just call him."

Pei Ye turned around in surprise, only to see Yan Feiqing nod his head and repeat quietly: "Just call me."

"."

At this time, Shang Lang came up from behind and interjected: "You don't need to trouble Master Xiaoyan with normal things. The same goes for calling me - when friends are in trouble, we should help each other."

Pei Ye ignored him. For him, since he knew that this Taoist priest Zaozi was one of his own, he immediately had a lot of things to say about the sword. He took the cup and walked over. Only Shang Lang was left looking at his back, wanting to say something but stopping.

The party lasted for two hours. Everyone chatted about different topics casually. Pei Ye also gradually realized that the other four people should work together on weekdays. Only Fang Jidao seemed to be studying and studying scriptures purely. He was called here today because of himself. In fact, he was not very familiar with the others.

Another discovery made him a little silent.

During the conversation, Pei Ye suddenly frowned, paused, tilted his head and slowly put his head next to him.

Suddenly clear.

Withdraw your head and go out, the smell of alcohol.

Put your head in, clear air.

This went back and forth several times. Yan Feiqing frowned and looked at him, and he also frowned and looked at Yan Feiqing.

——This man actually carries a bubble of true qi with him!

".Aren't you tired?"

"I prefer cleanliness."

When the cups and plates were in a mess, the six people came to the corridor and continued to chat by picking up the Danlian chair rails. When they ran out of words, they said goodbye to each other.

Before leaving, Xing Zhi handed a big box to Pei Ye. Pei Ye opened it with some surprise and was stunned for a moment.

Inside were all the things that were confiscated from him by the Immortal Terrace, Shanyu, Yuhu, Jiaohuan, and Tongque Plate. At this time, he remembered the sentence "You can use the Snow Sword less", and thought that Yuhu had better not be so arrogant.

He closed the box and thanked them, and said goodbye to everyone. Shang Lang looked at him for the last few times and wanted to say something, which made Pei Ye a little puzzled, but he finally just sighed and left a little lonely.

Finally, only Pei Ye and Qi Zhaohua were left leaning on the railing. Although Pei Ye was weak, he still had the true energy to sober up, and the woman actually drank two cups.

The moon was at its zenith, and the guests in the building were much fewer. The scenery between the railings was really beautiful, with the bright moon above and the clear pond below. The autumn breeze blew through the corridor in the middle. Both of them were a little lazy.

"It's a pleasure to have friends coming from afar!" Qi Zhaohua sighed softly, "Long time no see, young man Pei, I'm really happy today."

Pei Ye nodded and smiled. It was always comfortable to talk with this friend. She had a thorough understanding of things and a clear mind. Pei Ye still remembered that she woke him up with a word when he was confused about his feelings with the girl, and he also remembered that she invited him to come to the capital several times.

"Yes," he said, "We haven't seen each other for two months. Everyone has their own things to do. It's really comfortable to chat with each other."

"If you are familiar with the place, it's not a new place."

"That's right." Pei Ye tilted his head to look at her, "What about you, Miss Qi? I remember that you came to Shenjing for two years a few years ago. Did you decide what to do at that time?"

Qi Zhaohua was quiet for a while, looked up at the moon, and said: "You and Enjun only talked for a few sentences, I think you are still mostly unfamiliar with each other."

Pei Ye was stunned: "Yes."
