Chapter 441: The Old Man
"Senior Brother Liu, it's really you!"
The slender girl in front of the palace seemed to feel something, and when she looked back and saw Liu Heng, her apricot eyes, which were as bright as stars, suddenly froze and greeted her in surprise.
"Are you?" Liu Heng's heart was shocked, only to feel that the pretty face of the girl in front of him was very familiar, but the dress was very different from the impression, "Zizhang, why are you ......?"
The shy and delicate teenager back then is now picturesque and exquisite, but he is dressed as a daughter. Seeing that Liu Heng was full of surprise, Xu Zizhang sighed, two red clouds quickly floated on his cheeks, and his eyes were ashamed and annoyed.
Just happened to see a young man suspected of Liu Heng in the crowd, she hurriedly looked for it to confirm, but she forgot that she had always been dressed as a man in front of the other party.
"Senior brother, forgive me, at that time, the little sister did not deliberately hide the senior brother, it was really a last resort. Once he was in the goof, Xu Zizhang regretted his negligence, and on the other hand, he quickly apologized to Liu Heng, looking at Liu Heng's expression nervously, for fear that Liu Heng would have a mustard because of this.
Difficulties?
Liu Heng couldn't help but think of the first time the two met, and helped each other to boil the membrane, Xu Zizhang kept guarding the middle door, protecting his chest to make Liu Heng dissatisfied, and then punched the other party......
Now that the truth is revealed, he knows how outrageous he was wrong, and he actually offended this girl so excessively. What is the last resort, only now did he know that Xu Zizhang had good intentions, and it was clearly because of his face that he kept this secret.
"At that time, I also said junior brother, junior sister, you are too handsome and too ladylike, but now you know ......" Liu Heng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "But senior brother is wrong." ”
"At that time, it was the little sister, I deliberately concealed it first, how can I say that it was the fault of the senior brother?" Xu Zizhang hurriedly said: "If the senior brother says this again, how can the little sister deal with herself?"
Liu Heng was still annoyed with himself. "I should have thought of it. ”
"It's nothing more than a small misunderstanding, senior brother don't blame himself anymore, otherwise the little sister will only be a gap between the senior brother and the little sister, and I am afraid that I will not dare to come to the senior brother again in the future. Xu Zizhang tried his best to hide the apprehension in his heart, and pretended to complain.
"You're right, a little misunderstanding. But we can't let it ruin our life-changing friendship. Xu Zizhang, who is a woman, is so atmospheric, which makes Liu Heng ashamed, and then he is also relieved.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Seeing that Xu Zizhang curiously glanced at the three big words "Zhou Tiandian" on the plaque on the door of the temple from time to time, looking like he wanted to ask but didn't know whether to ask, Liu Heng simply said: "It's a long story, but it's hard to say, if the junior sister has time, it's better to come in and sit down, let's talk slowly." ”
Xu Zizhang smiled playfully. "It's rare to meet again in the Holy Land, how can you sit in the room anymore, Senior Brother might as well walk around with my little sister, so as not to miss the rare summer scenery of the Holy Land. ”
"It's fine. ”
Liu Heng agreed without hesitation, and then explained two sentences to the miscellaneous disciples in the hall, and then accompanied Xu Zizhang.
On the other side, Lu Zhanji, who couldn't visit his friends, returned disappointed, and happened to see Liu Heng and Xu Zizhang disappearing into the opposite corner. couldn't help squinting slightly, "Uncle." Do you know the guy next to you?"
The one he called Uncle was the guard assigned to him by the family, and after thinking about it for a while, he replied, "This dress looks like that of the Yunshan Sect." ”
Lu Zhanji folded his fan, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked up a playful smile, "Interesting." ”
......
"Butterfly Flower Sect?"
On the shore of the famous Snow and Frost Lake in Bailing Valley, Liu Heng and Xu Zizhang strolled forward. After listening to Liu Heng's brief description of the experience after separation, Xu Zizhang was very surprised and hesitated: "This sect ...... How could Senior Brother worship under this sect?"
Liu Heng's mind was clear, and he understood that Xu Zizhang was afraid that he had never heard of a second-rate sect like the Butterfly Flower Sect, and the reason why his words flickered. Or take care of his face.
But Liu Heng himself has gradually agreed with the Butterfly Flower Sect, but he doesn't feel that there is any shame in the Butterfly Flower Sect's background, and he is very calm, "Do you remember the barbarian chef?"
"Oh, that old disrespectful ......" Xu Zizhang blurted out, and quickly covered his mouth, making Liu Heng laugh. With the temperament of a brute cook, it is the overlord, otherwise Xu Zizhang and they would not have anything good to say in private.
"I once asked him for help, and only after his guidance did I know that the Butterfly Flower Sect had a practice that was exactly what I wanted, so I worshiped the hidden vein of the Butterfly Flower Sect. "When I came to Liu Heng, after all, I didn't hate the barbarian cook, so when I talked about him, I couldn't help but have a lot of maintenance.
After listening to his explanation, Xu Zizhang was a little awake, but he was also curious.
In her heart, with Liu Heng's qualifications, the sects in the world can almost be chosen by him, and even the holy land can enter, so she really can't think of any magical exercises for such a sect that has never heard of a name, and it can attract such a genius as Senior Brother Liu to rush to apprentice.
But when it comes to the privacy of the exercises, Liu Heng doesn't seem to want to reveal too much, and she doesn't want to interrogate more. But she knew that Liu Heng was not stupid or stupid, and there must be a reason why she had to make such an unreasonable choice, thinking like this, the discomfort in her heart was swept away.
"Senior brother is extremely talented, and Xiaomei believes that no matter what sect senior brother worships, he will definitely get ahead in the future. She said categorically, and then smiled, "Little sister is really worrying. The Butterfly Flower Sect should be the lower sect of Zhou Tianzong, and being able to come to Dabi with the senior brothers of the Upper Sect to watch the ceremony is enough to see how much the senior brother is valued over there. ”
Liu Heng opened his mouth, but smiled awkwardly. He didn't expect that Xu Zizhang had already helped him think of the reason for coming to the Holy Land, and at this time, the reason why he came to the Holy Land was like showing off something, where could he still say it.
"Senior sister, why did you come to the Holy Land too?"
"It's about the same as a senior brother. The second senior sister happened to win the second place in the sect, and the master Long Yan Dayue agreed to my request, let the sect take me, and take me to the holy land in advance for a long time. Xu Zizhang said playfully: "I'm just a little follower, and I mainly cheer for the second senior sister." ”
Liu Heng suddenly realized that the Yunshan Sect was originally a first-class sect, and Xu Zizhang's second senior sister actually won the second place in the sect, which happened to be the same rank as him.
He didn't omit the word "in advance" in Xu Zizhang's words, and he knew how much Xu Zizhang was valued in the sect, "With your qualifications, it will be up to you to compete in the next rookie competition in three or five years." ”
Xu Zizhang is not yet nine years old this year, and his breath should have condensed, and the big medicine that was given when he was separated from the Lotus Sect Immortal Mansion. It finally came in handy.
"What, thinking of having a session with my senior brother, does my senior brother know how much pressure my little sister has?" Xu Zizhang glared at Liu Heng and said angrily.
Liu Heng smiled and said, "I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to be in the same class as you." ”
Xu Zizhang was stunned, and then suddenly sighed, "Senior brother worshiped the hidden vein of the Butterfly Flower Sect. I'm afraid that the sect won't let the senior brother come out and make a name for himself. ”
Yes, the difference is thousands of miles, the misunderstanding is getting bigger and bigger, but Liu Heng is really hard to explain, so he has to say: "It's not for this reason, you'll know after a while." ”
When I see Liu Heng on Dabi, I don't need to explain anything. However, no matter how Xu Zizhang thinks about it now, he would never have thought that Liu Heng, who had just condensed half a year ago, would be able to stand on the same stage with her second senior sister after only half a year.
Diligence is so against the sky. It's too bizarre to say it, you can only see it with your own eyes.
So hearing Liu Heng say this, Xu Zizhang was ignorant, and did not continue to ask again, but talked about what happened after he went back.
Although they haven't seen each other for more than half a year, they feel like they've been separated for a long time for the two who are still teenagers, and they are very happy to be reunited, Xu Zizhang has saved a lot of words, and he finally had a good time today.
And Liu Heng. After the separation, it was too scary to say that many experiences were too scary, and he only selected some of the sect's experiences to tell Xu Zizhang. Xu Zizhang told everything after he went back. Including the torture of cultivation, the nagging and harshness of the master, and even who he hated and liked among the same disciples, he said everything, and he couldn't wait to make up for the regret that Liu Heng was not around.
In short, after listening to it, Liu Heng clearly knew the favor that Xu Zizhang received in the sect. The importance that the sect attaches to her is also extraordinary.
"By the way, I saw Zhu Zhenhe and them not long ago, and when I saw me, I didn't even dare to raise my head, they were all majestic when I was in Xianfu, and I saw that they all fell into a shadow in their hearts. It's funny to watch. Xu Zizhang chuckled when he mentioned this.
Who is Zhu Zhenhe, Liu Heng has no impression at all, but after hearing Xu Zizhang say this, he understands that it should be someone in the Lotus Sect Immortal Mansion who was robbed by him.
After more than half a year, when he mentioned the past, Liu Heng only felt as if he was in a different world, as if a long time had passed. Thinking about the teenagers who still thought they were future rivals, they either haven't condensed yet, or have just condensed, and he is already competing with the teenagers' senior sisters and brothers, Liu Heng himself is also embarrassed.
Talking all the way, the two walked a long way unconsciously, and had to stop when they came to the edge of a mountain cliff, but there was no road in front of them.
After stopping for a moment, Liu Heng inadvertently glanced at the opposite side, his eyes suddenly condensed.
There is a flying stream waterfall on the opposite cliff, surging, there is a big bluestone standing upright on the waterfall, which is still standing after repeated torrent washing. The fog rises on the bluestone, as if the water meets the molten mud, and the mist rolls out for a long time.
Liu Heng's eyesight is amazing, but he can see the figure sitting on the bluestone clearly through the thick water mist.
This man was as solid as a rock and seemed to be using the place for penance. He constantly urged his own internal force, and only the heat unintentionally emitted by the internal force qi and blood caused the vision in front of him, and the uniqueness and strength of his internal force can be seen.
"Ah, how did you get here?" Xu Zizhang looked around, exclaimed after seeing the surrounding environment clearly, and showed a nervous look towards the waterfall, and lowered his voice very low, "Senior brother, let's leave quickly." ”
The two of them looked at each other, and the person on the bluestone seemed to feel something, and suddenly opened his eyes and looked this way. Just with this indifferent glance, Liu Heng could feel that Xu Zizhang's whole body suddenly stiffened, and his body and mind were tense to the extreme.
Liu Heng frowned.
After the person on the other side saw the two of them clearly, it seemed that the two of them couldn't arouse any interest in him, and closed his eyes again, Xu Zizhang next to him breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly grabbed Liu Heng's sleeve and said, "Let's leave first, and I'll tell you later!"
Feeling Xu Zizhang's overflowing anxiety, Liu Heng glanced at the other side again, and let Xu Zizhang drag him away quickly.
Until he walked far away, Xu Zizhang was still looking backwards, full of happiness for the rest of his life, "Thank God, I almost caused a big disaster." ”
"What kind of place is that?" Liu Heng was very interested, and asked more, "Who is cultivating over there?"
Xu Zizhang saw him so relaxed, and couldn't help but say angrily: "It's okay that Senior Brother doesn't know anything, but it's not as worried as Little Sister, you don't know how dangerous it was just now." ”
"If you want to say that this place is not famous in the first place, it is because the person we just met often cultivates here that he gradually became famous, and he was called Ronglie Stream, and no one remembered what it was called. ”
Xu Zizhang had a straight face, "This person's name is Sun Gonglie, not only is he the true legend of the Holy Land, but he also ranks tenth on the list of martial arts Tianjiao, beating the six real Tianjiao." The second senior sister said that this was a terrifying person who she would never want to provoke, and she didn't even want to meet this person in Dabi, just because this person didn't know whether it was because of the exercises or his nature, his temperament was extraordinarily violent, and he would kill people if he didn't agree with him. ”
"He doesn't care what the other party's identity is, he killed him on the spot if something didn't go his way, fortunately he didn't take us seriously just now, you know why I'm so scared now, right?" Xu Zizhang said with palpitations.
Liu Heng was moved.
I have long heard that there are many strongmen in the Holy Land, and even the demons who have the power to suppress the pride of the sky, but I didn't expect to meet one casually. But after listening to Xu Zizhang's explanation, he gradually frowned, "His temperament is so violent, it's just lawless, and the holy land can accommodate him like this?"
Liu Heng knew that if there was such a character in the sect, regardless of how good his qualifications were, he would be severely punished, and he would never be so indulgent.
"Because it's a holy place. Xu Zizhang sighed, "Senior brother may not know very well, the Holy Land can be said to be instructive, only based on qualifications and strength, and never values people's conduct." The better you behave, the more you can be connived at and cultivated by the Holy Land, like Sun Gonglie, even if he deceives his teacher and destroys his ancestors, the Holy Land doesn't care. So even if he kills us just now, our sect will protest at most, and it will be useless. ”
"This is the Holy Land?" Liu Heng took a deep breath, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, he couldn't tell what he felt, but he had a deeper understanding of the Holy Land Bailing Valley.
The little episode was thrilling, and Xu Zizhang quickly left it behind and continued to talk with Liu Heng. The two of them who reunited had too much to say, and it wasn't until late at night that Liu Heng sent her back to the Yunshan Sect station, she was still unsatisfied, and she reluctantly said goodbye until Liu Heng promised to come out more often.
On the way back, Liu Heng thought about Sun Gonglie who he met by chance, and gradually matched the description of Sun Gonglie on the jade slip that the real person and Wang Yuqian gave him, "The scorching heat of the internal force makes the torrent like molten slurry, which is indeed very unusual, it should be a fire mastery." Judging from the description, the rumor that his personality was violent and that his cultivation was flawed was probably not a rumor. ”
But no matter what you say, just based on the strong sense of danger that Sun Gonglie gave him when they met, Liu Heng could also conclude that this person must be his great enemy.
Back at the station, it was very quiet in the Zhou Tian Palace, and it seemed that the people who had gone out had either not returned yet, or had returned to their rooms early. When Liu Heng walked to the courtyard of the side hall, he happened to see two people sitting across the table in the small pavilion, and they all followed the reputation when they heard the movement.
"It's finally back. The man on the left opened the folding fan and sneered.
Liu Heng didn't expect that Lu Zhanji and Zhu Qingshu would also sit at the same table, and listening to this tone, it seemed like they were waiting for him, "The two of you are waiting for me?"
Zhu Qingshu bit his lip, and his beautiful eyes showed a complicated look, "I heard that you went out with friends from the Yunshan Sect today, but is it true?" )
