Liu Qinghuan can decide not to hold the Lingxu Grand Ceremony, and he can not see those who rush to curry favor with the flames, but some people and some forces have to give face, such as the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance, such as the Taihao Daozun, one of the three extreme Venerables of the Qing Immortal.

But before he could go to Qingying, he had to go to a place and meet someone.

Howling Wind Continent, Qingqiu Valley.

Once upon a time, the beautiful Qingqiu Valley was destroyed by the Yin Moon Blood Realm monks who invaded the Howling Wind Continent in the Sealing War that year.

Now, Qingqiu Valley has been restored to the scenery of the year, and Feiquan Waterfall and Xiaoqiao Jingge are all exactly the same in their original positions. However, this place is the same, just as it was back then, but it is more and more revealing of the unforgettable sorrow and loneliness of the owner of this place, even if the red maple all over the mountain is as enthusiastic as fire, but it can't hide the meaning of being deserted.

Liu Qinghuan silently looked at the woman sitting opposite, and sighed softly for a while: "Lele, why are you ......?"

Lele, who has not been seen for many years, sits behind the stringed piano, his expression is quiet, but he is already full of gorgeous hair, and although his face has not passed away, it is no longer beautiful. When I first saw her, the eccentric girl always had countless tricks, and she always had a sly and bright smile on her face, but this smile finally disappeared without a trace in the ordeal.

"After so many years of self-suffering, can't you still let go?" Liu Qinghuan sighed again, he had long wanted to come to see Lele, but he couldn't pull out, and he dragged it out until today, only to find that his friend was already old, and he was not far from the end of his life.

Lele looked up, his eyes were a little cloudy, and he chuckled: "You specially left important things and came to see me, just to ask this? Then you can ask in vain, the self-suffering in your eyes may not be my sweetness." ”

Liu Qinghuan was about to speak, but the other party said again: "By the way? Haven't congratulated you on your advancement to Mahayana – didn't expect that? The hairy boy who climbed the ruins and drilled holes with me back then was able to get to where he is today? It's really ...... Get what you want? Congratulations!"

Liu Qinghuan waved his hand and said, "You...... Alas!"

Lele plucked the strings casually? Ding Dong chirped a few times and said, "But I'm different from you?" Do you know my temperament too? I couldn't meditate and practice in front of the wall every day, so it was my choice to live my life in such a relaxed and ordinary way, and not to pursue the unattainable path of immortality. ”

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but be silent? After a while, he said, "Okay? Your sharp teeth are still the same as back then, it seems that I don't need to say anything else, what you think is good is good. ”

"Yes, that's it. Lele was a little happier, pushed away the piano and stood up: "I haven't even bothered with you about your apprentice's abduction of my daughter?" Alas, what a woman is really missing? ran around outside every day, and didn't come back to see her wife. ”

Liu Qinghuan touched his nose? said: "Xiaoxiao is now in the Wenshi faction, do you want to see her?" A piece of paper and she came back? It's so convenient to teleport circles now. Other than that? Did I hear me right, you don't seem to object to Nian En and Xiao Xiao anymore?"

"Is it useful for me to object?" Lele rolled his eyes and smiled slyly: "Besides, I used to worry that Xiaoxiao would follow my old path, but doesn't that kid have a Daokui master now, I don't think anyone can bully him, and naturally no one can bully my daughter." ”

Sure enough, even if the world changes and the years are gone, Lele still retains the cheerful heart he once had, and Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm there for a day, I can protect her for a day. However, that year, Xiaoxiao was captured because of my business, and I haven't ...... you yet."

Lele sneered and interrupted him: "It's all old, isn't she good, okay, I'm too lazy to worry about this." Let's go, I'll take you to see my foals, you came just in time, one of them is about to give birth today......"

So the dignified Mahayana monk and the newly baked Taoist Kui were taken to the mountain to see a group of spirit horses with forged fur, and casually picked up one of the difficult horses to give birth......

With Liu Qinghuan's cultivation, it can be seen at a glance that Lele's longevity is not much, but the other party obviously doesn't want to mention those sad pasts, so he won't mention it again, but before leaving, he quietly left a Shouyuan Dan.

The immortal road is long, and the longer he walks on this road, the old friends of the year leave one by one, and the fewer and fewer people accompany him.

Life and old age have their own lives, and each has its own choice. No matter how much I talk and think about it when I am young, I actually don't understand death, and when I understand the meaning of death, I am not far from death.

How many people can truly attain immortality, at this moment, boundless loneliness rose in Liu Qinghuan's heart.

With this loneliness, Liu Qinghuan left Qingqiu Valley, teleported to the Qingying Heaven, and went to the Great Lonely Mountain.

This is the second time he has gone up to this mountain since the last time he went to the Mourning Temple to get the treasure, only to see the silk clouds floating in the air, like a light veil of glow sprinkled down, flying cranes take pictures, fairy spirit fluttering. Looking down from the mountain, you can see the wide and busy nine-day clouds, with mountain peaks, winding water, road platforms, and streets......

The feeling of condescension is really intoxicating, especially in the big lonely mountain suspended in mid-air, to be able to go up to this mountain, it can be regarded as truly standing at the peak of the immortal cultivation world.

"Qinglin Daozun. ”

There was a call behind him, Liu Qinghuan came back to his senses, and saw a little boy standing in front of the round cave door with his hands down, and said respectfully: "Thank you for a long time, my master invites you to come in." ”

Liu Qinghuan straightened his cuffs and nodded politely: "Please lead the way." ”

Bypassing the barrier of mountains and rivers, passing through the elegant vestibule, to a hall, I saw an old man in gray dressed in simple and unpretentious clothes sitting under a thousand-year-old pine and closing his eyes to recuperate, and there was a chess game on the stone table next to him, and the tea cup next to the table was hot, and the fragrance of tea was overflowing.

Xiao Tong stopped and said softly, "Master, Qinglin Daozun has arrived." ”

The old man in gray opened his eyes, but he didn't speak, only looked at Liu Qinghuan fixedly, and looked at him from head to toe.

Liu Qinghuan let him look at it for a moment, and was about to step forward to salute, when the old man in gray had already spoken: "You are very sober." ”

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but pause and asked, "Why did Taihao Daoyou say this?"

The gray-clothed old man, one of the three extreme honors of the Qing Ming Dynasty, a monk in the late Mahayana period, and the real leader of the Banshan Academy, Taihao Daozun just looked at him, and said for a while: "The number of Dao Kui has reached the peak, and the Lingxu Grand Ceremony has been glorious, but you have given up holding the ceremony, and you don't seem to be arrogant because of this, so you are very sober." ”

Liu Qinghuan said lightly: "The tree is big, and the people are famous, what is there to be proud of." ”

Tai Hao glanced at him again, then smiled slightly, and pointed to the side: "Fellow Daoist, please sit down, this Hanging Moon Jade Dew should be tasted while it is hot, and the tea taste is the best." ”

Liu Qinghuan thanked him, sat down at the stone table, picked up the teacup and sniffed lightly: "It's really good tea." I heard that the Hanging Moon Jade Dew and Lingshan Cloud Piece and Pengxuan Feixue are listed as the three great teas, and I am fortunate to see them today. ”

"It's just a wild tea plant next to my cave, it's not worth it. Tai Hao smiled, turned his head to the little boy standing on the side and ordered: "Go and bring all the jade dew that was just picked a few days ago, and you can take it back and taste it slowly." ”

Liu Qinghuan smiled: "Then I'm welcome." ”

Tai Hao said: "Since this is the case, I heard that you are also a person in the academy, that is your own person, you are not polite here at all, you are free." ”

As he spoke, Tai Hao's fingertips lightly tapped the stone table, and the endgame chess pieces on the table fell back into the sandalwood boxes on both sides.

"There is nothing to do for a long time, can you talk about it with the old man?"

Liu Qinghuan's eyes fell on the chessboard and said, "But, it's just that my chess skills are shallow, I'm afraid I'm going to be ugly." ”

Taihao laughed: "It's just to pass the time, why not say it's ugly." ”

The two of them each held their chess pieces and concentrated on playing chess.

Liu Qinghuan's expression was relaxed, his mind was calm, and he didn't bother to guess whether the other party invited him to meet today, whether he purely wanted to see him, or if he had some other purpose.

While the two were playing chess and chatting, Taihao said: "Presumably Daoyou has been very busy recently, and there are many invitations to the banquet, but there is a banquet that you must not miss!"
