The moon on Chinese New Year's Eve was bright until fifteen, and the taste of the New Year also stretched from Chinese New Year's Eve to Lantern Night.

After tonight, it will be regarded as the New Year, and after tonight, they will set off for Linze City, the capital of heaven.

Although Yubei County is a small town, it is very lively tonight. It was getting dark, and the streets were full of red lanterns, making the road, which was not particularly wide, a little cramped.

Experienced vendors rushed to the dojo in the north of the city early, because there was a lantern festival there later. The Lantern Festival will only start in the middle of the war, but the names of the villages in Shili and Eight Townships have already gathered early.

Yan Hong knew that there was excitement in the city, of course, she would not let it go, and she had been urging A-Niang to make dinner earlier. He wants to take Lin Qing to join in the fun, and if he goes late, there will be no good position.

Lin Qing didn't particularly like this kind of excitement, for him, the retreat in the mountain four years later made him now have a sense of indifference to these mortal worlds that should not belong to this age. But Yan Hong shouted that she wanted to go, so she had to agree to accompany him to see it.

Yan Hong waited impatiently in the yard, so she kept walking around. At this time, there were several knocks on the door outside the courtyard gate.

Lin Qing and Yan Hong looked at each other, and after confirming that the other party had heard the knock on the door, Yan Hong opened the courtyard door.

Yan Hong opened the courtyard door and walked in with an old man. The two old men were both wearing green shirts and were of similar age. He recognized the two of them at a glance, they were the two Heavenly Masters of the two counties. Yan Hong immediately saluted the two, and then invited the two into the courtyard.

When Lin Qing saw the two old men, he also performed a mystical salute, and then the two of them introduced the two old heavenly masters into the house.

After the two sat down, the tall and thin old man spoke first: "I was invited by my senior brother to come and see the lights tonight, and Lao Dao thought that the two sons would go to Tiandu tomorrow, so he came over to practice for the two sons." After the tall and thin old man finished speaking, he looked at the senior brother beside him.

"On the way over, the junior brother also told me about what happened to several people in Changling. said that he was going to come to the door to give an explanation, and he would accompany them Xiao Taishou. The old man said with a smile.

When Yan Yan heard this, he frowned and said, "How dare you let the Heavenly Master come to the door to compensate, besides, it was my son who took the lead that day." Speaking of which, it should be us who come to the door to make amends. ”

"I said that neither of them should make amends, and the old way should be the master. This matter has passed like this, and there is no harm or sin. The old man answered with a smile.

After finishing business, the two old men didn't stay long and walked out of the courtyard. Yan Yan felt a little guilty because the two Heavenly Masters came to the door for this matter. Grandpa then appeased two sentences, which made Master Yan feel relieved.

……

Yan Hong hastily ate a few bites of rice and took Lin Qing to the dojo in the north, but Lin Qing was not full yet, so he had no choice but to stuff two dumplings into his mouth.

At this time, the Chengbei Dojo was already overcrowded, and the gongs and drums were noisy. Yan Hong was afraid that Lin Qing would get lost, so she dragged Lin Qing's arm and stuck it in the pile. But the onlookers were not only three layers inside and three layers outside, Yan Hong wasted all his strength and didn't squeeze in.

Lin Qing was choked by a few dumplings and couldn't speak, Yan Hong glanced at Lin Qing, who was still wrapped in dumplings in his mouth, rolled his eyes and said: "I only know how to eat, let you come early and you don't come, now you can't see anything." ”

Yan Hong shook off Lin Qing's arm and found a place to do it, her face was full of unhappiness.

Lin Qing looked helpless, paused, and then chewed again.

After swallowing what was in his mouth, Lin Qing sat down with a blushing face. Lin Qing wiped his mouth and hit Yan Hong with his arm, and Yan Hong hit him back with more force. Lin Qing was hit in pain, grinning and rubbing his arm.

"Isn't it just to watch a lantern? I have a way. After a while, Lin Qing said.

Hearing Lin Qing say that there was a way, Yan Hong retorted angrily: "There are people all around here, what can you do?" Did you get into the crotch or fly in? Obviously, facing the iron wall of people, Yan Hong didn't think that Lin Qing could have any good way.

Lin Qing stood up and pretended to be mysterious: "I have a better way!" You come with me. With that, he turned and walked away. Yan Hong was skeptical, but there was no good way now, so he had to follow. If Lin Qing couldn't think of a good way, it would be a heavy punch, Yan Hong muttered silently in her heart.

Lin Qing walked to a high platform and stopped, this high platform was two zhang high, higher than the doorway of the city tower. It's very flat all around, and there is nowhere to climb.

Yan Hong walked under the high platform, and he recognized that this was the high altar used by ordinary Heavenly Masters to teach the Fa. Yan Hong looked at Lin Qing with sparkling eyes and said, "This is the way you said?" ”

Lin Qing nodded seriously and said, "Yes, you can see the inside of the dojo by standing on it!" "Lin Qing is right, this high platform is two stories high, and when you look down from above, you can see the entire dojo.

"How do we get there?" Yan Hong gritted her teeth and asked. Usually the Celestial Master can resist the sword, but they don't have this way yet. And they are not like martial arts people, they are a few feet high when they jump. They are cultivating now, and it is a little difficult for them to jump so high in the air.

Lin Qing saw the confusion on Yan Hong's face, so he took two steps back. About two zhang away, Lin Qing began to make palm prints. I saw that with the direction of Lin Qing's finger, steps began to emerge out of thin air next to the high platform.

Only then did Yan Hong suddenly realize that Lin Qing was already in the stage of transforming into a god, and he could control the water line.

In a short time, a complete staircase made of water columns appeared in front of them. Lin Qing gestured to Yan Hong, and Yan Hong also understood what the other party meant, so he began to walk up the stairs to the top of the high platform.

The two of them climbed on the high platform, and the lively scene in the dojo was unobstructed at this time. Yan Hong saw the lantern show as she wished, and her face was full of happy smiles. Lin Qing also looked at the audience with a smile on his face.

At this time, on a roof not far away, a dark shadow with a pitch-black cylinder was staring at the two people on the high platform, and the black shadow snorted and said to himself: "It is indeed two genius boys, it's a pity." ”

……

……

Not far outside the city of Changling County, a dark shadow knelt on one knee.

"Get up, Aunt You!" A voice came from the darkness, and the owner of the voice sounded no more than ten years old.

"Your master doesn't think you need a knife to kill chickens." It was a woman who spoke, her voice as cold as this winter night, but as charming as the moonlight.

"Since the master asked you to come over, I believe in your ability, just guard against the old Taoist." The young man's voice was even colder, like an ice fountain under the abyss, and like an empty shell corpse without blood flowing.

It seemed that the young man believed the master he said, but he was worried that the other party would not be able to play the task, so he kindly reminded the other party.

"Yeyan's revenge, I will also get it back together tonight!" The woman snorted.

"Stand down."

At the sound of the voice, the woman's figure disappeared into the night, as if it had never appeared.

……

Yan Hong looked at the lantern show in the dojo, and those beautiful things made him unable to take his eyes off it, and he didn't even feel that the wind on this high platform was blowing extremely cold.

Lin Qing didn't understand that Yan Hong was such an adult and liked to look at these colorful things, he looked at it for a while and then passed the novelty, so he immediately looked left and right.

A cold wind blew, Lin Qing shivered, and then wrapped his clothes. He wanted to pull Yan Hong home, but Yan Hong seemed to be on the road and couldn't listen to him at all.

Lin Qing was helpless, so he had to look around boredly. At the moment when Lin Qing turned his head to look, he noticed two black dots flying towards him and Yan Hong.

These two black dots are the size of two flies, but they are extremely fast. The black dot was about two feet away from them, but in a snap of his fingers, he was in front of Lin Qing and Yan Hong.

Lin Qing shouted, "It's not good. He hadn't realized what those two black dots were, but it was definitely not a good thing to do so quickly. Lin Qing was about to look at the lively Yan Hong, and pressed down, and he also squatted down.

Two black dots swept over their heads, and only then did Lin Qing see clearly that these were two short swords with dark barrels. The black sword pierced the air, and disappeared into the night again.

These two strange flying swords made Lin Qing realize that there was some kind of danger hidden in this dark night, and they also made Lin Qing feel more energetic. After Yan Hong was reminded by Lin Qing, she also looked around.

After the black sword disappeared, it stabbed at Lin Qing and Yan Hong again from another direction. And Lin Qing, who was on guard, had already made his handprints this time. Seeing that the flying sword was still a few feet away from them, a blue-green barrier was born around Lin Qing and Yan Hong out of thin air.

The two flying swords pierced each other on top of the green barrier, and the moment they touched the barrier, the barrier was pierced by the flying swords into a spider web-like crack.

Lin Qing saw the crack and hurriedly urged the vitality in his body, but the two flying swords seemed to be conscious, and they frantically attacked this barrier. In a moment, Lin Qing's mental qi barrier that he had activated with his vitality was full of cracks.

The black flying sword still maintained an uninterrupted attack, and Lin Qing realized that if it continued to be consumed like this, it would only be exhausted by the opponent, and finally captured. When the two black swords disappeared into the night sky again, Lin Qing changed his palm prints.

Lin Qing urged the vitality in his body, and then two pillars of water with the thickness of hemp rope restrained the two flying swords, making the two flying swords unable to move.

Seeing that the two flying swords were trapped, a black figure suddenly appeared on the roof not far away. The figure appeared and sneered a few times: "If there are really two hits, but I'm afraid that this cultivation is a bit insufficient." "It was a woman who spoke, and as soon as she finished speaking, with a wave of her right hand, the two flying swords broke free." I won't mess around with you, after cleaning you up, I'll go to the old Taoist priest to settle accounts. The woman's tone was charming, with a hint of a smile.

Yan Hong and Lin Qing were shocked when they saw the figure that appeared out of thin air from the black. Although I don't know the other party's cultivation, I look at the posture at least far beyond the two of them.

Lin Qing motioned for Yan Hong to find a way to escape and ask the Heavenly Master for help, and he came to drag the other party. But the other party seemed to sense their intentions, and said with a smile: "That old Taoist is here, and you have to die!" ”

With a laugh, the woman disappeared into the night again.
