When he was working hard day and night in the back house of Zuo's family, Zuo Lingquan often fantasized that one day he could cross thousands of mountains and rivers like a bird, and enjoy the most free freedom in the world.

But after he could really travel far away with his sword, Zuo Lingquan realized that whether he walked or flew, it was just a way to rush. If no one was with him, no matter how beautiful the scenery on the road was, it would make people feel boring if they saw too much.

Departing from Meishan to the Sand Sea in Zhongzhou, it is more than 20,000 miles away. There are many attractions or immortal forces that you can meet on the road, but Zuo Lingquan is eager to return home and has no intention of paying attention to it. He basically did not stop on the road.

In the past, I always took a pleasure boat ferry. This was the first time that Zuo Lingquan had traveled alone after meeting the wind. There were no accidents on the way.

Zuo Lingquan knew that it was better not to fly to the city or fairy market, otherwise he might be dragged down by the ancestor of the immortal family below. The same is true for the immortal family sect.

But most of the larger immortal forces have a large formation for protecting the sect, which can hide the entire sect between mountains and lakes, and there is no abnormality from the outside.

The monks who often travel outside and go to strange places must ask which immortal family is nearby and where they are located.

Zuo Lingquan came directly from the Great Yan Dynasty, crossing the Emperor Zhao Dynasty without stopping, and did not know the sects of the Emperor Zhao Dynasty, so how could he know the small and medium-sized sects in the north? So when he passed by a lake halfway, he directly hit the sect's protection formation.

The protection sect formation has the effect of passive protection. The greater the impact, the greater the resistance, and vice versa. Therefore, birds and mosquitoes can pass through, but the sword energy cannot be used.

Zuo Lingquan was naturally not slow when he was walking on the sword. He was caught off guard and almost stunned. In a frightened and angry manner, he turned his back toward the sword. At that same moment, he heard the angry shout inside:

"Who is the hero coming to the humble house? I have misunderstood the path, please forgive me..."

This reaction was naturally because Zuo Lingquan was frightened and angry. The formation was a bit big, and it poked a big hole in the protection sect formation.

The ordinary flying sword that Zuo Lingquan was able to step on was the fairy sword "Xuanming" obtained from Wu Yezi.

The Xuanming Sword is very cold and has no reaction after getting it. Zuo Lingquan doesn't know whether to recognize the master or not, so he dares to use it easily. He just holds it in his hand when he is holding the sword.

Suddenly, he handed out a sword. Zuo Lingquan felt that he was easy to use, and the formation was only larger than that in the Qilin Cave Heaven. The same was true for consumption. When he used the Mo Yuan sword in the past, he pressed his true energy into the sword, and the fairy sword was directly pulled from his body. Even though it was already the second level of Youhuang, it still felt like a small horse was pulling a big cart.

When Zuo Lingquan found that the fairy sword could be controlled, he was naturally happy, and his anger when he walked and hit the wall disappeared. As for the sect that was hit, since the other party was so polite, he naturally would not care about the other party's fault of blocking the way. After talking casually, he left.

On the next journey, Zuo Lingquan paid a little attention to the situation on the ground, and there was no accident of hitting the wall with his sword. After climbing over Fulong Mountain and entering the desert, he galloped all the way and finally arrived at the sea of ​​sand at the end of August.

The Qilin Cave Heaven collapsed and merged with the sand and sea in the middle, making the original desert landform indescribable.

But "balance" is the way of heaven. Once an unnatural place appears, the heaven and earth will spare no effort to restore it to its natural state, and it is impossible for dense forests to grow on the desert all the time.

More than two months have passed, and the appearance of the sand sea has changed again. Most of the ancient trees that were originally seen everywhere have withered, but the sand is also irrigated by the water in the cave, and some weeds have grown, turning into hilly terrain. I am afraid that it will become a green space of thousands of miles in a radius.

In the past, the sand sea was known as the "Dead Sea". In it, mortals could not survive. Except for monks who would hide in to avoid disaster, they had no other value for use and belonged to a land without a border.

Nowadays, the territory has been changed enough, and the country has been established. Not only are there all kinds of treasures and treasures, but there are also many fairy mountain caves suitable for practice. The Zhongzhou monks who are not very wealthy are naturally robbing them.

Zuo Lingquan passed by the sea of ​​sand, and could see small gangs who were kings everywhere, and some of them fought in groups and grabbed territory in the mountains and fields; and the mountain he had settled in was named by Jianhuang City, and outsiders were not allowed to enter.

Zuo Lingquan has made great gains in the sea of ​​sand. After passing by again, he stopped without interest and said that he came directly to Feisha City.

Feisha City is the city of Qijia, which is not small in scale, but in the past, it was located outside the sand sea, with sparse flow of people, so it cannot be considered prosperous. Now the sand sea behind it has become a treasure land, and the Qijia, which is right at the gate, is naturally different from the past, and has become the gatekeeper Qin in the wind.

These days, the Qi family and several other aristocratic families stopped fighting. First, the locals gathered together to occupy a lot of mineral veins in the sand sea, and raised funds to set up a fairy market outside the sand sea. The immortal merchants in Yuyaozhou rushed to sell shops inside. As long as the family business is kept and not robbed, the future wealth will definitely be quite good. Before this, Qi Jia Lao Lu went to the Xianjia Market to stand guard. Of course, Zuo Yunting, the shame of the barren mountain, is not lacking.

After Zuo Lingquan asked about some news in Feisha City, he contacted him in advance. Lingye and the others did not alarm outsiders, but just found a place to settle in Feisha City.

Zuo Lingquan didn't want to bother the girls to mobilize their troops to greet him. After entering the city, he did not notify him in advance. After searching for a while, he found a house to settle down in the east of the city.

Middle-South China has arid climate, sparse water veins, and a rough architectural style. The yellowish courtyard walls and large black tiles make Zuo Lingquan, who is used to water town buildings, feels that the girls live a bit shabby.

He quietly climbed over the courtyard wall, and looked up and saw Shangguan Lingye's pleasure boat, parked in the yard of the front house, and could vaguely hear the sound and words of the pipa in the wing room next to him:

"You are so anxious to eat, won't you hold on? Let your master see that, and he thought we were hungry..."

"Jiji~..."

Although I couldn't understand Tuanzi's words, Zuo Lingquan knew Tuanzi was definitely saying:

"When my mother comes, birds and birds have to start losing weight again. It's a meal that can be eaten..."

Zuo Lingquan knew that Tuanzi could find him, but he didn't fly out to act coquettishly, and was a little disappointed. He walked to the vicinity of the wing room and looked at the room. The petite girl in a goose yellow pleated skirt was lying on the bed, her calves swaying with her skirt and holding the iron pipa in her arms. She didn't know what song she was playing, but the tune was ridiculous.

The dumplings seemed to have grown up again, lying on the dressing table, with a pile of colorful dried fruits in front of them, and they didn't forget to hum while swallowing them; the dark golden little turtle was still squished in the tortoise shell, without any movement.

In addition, there is a hat and a small package next to the bed. Judging from Xie Qiutao's outfit, it does not look like he is at home, but is ready to go out at any time.

Zuo Lingquan just came back, so he couldn't go to visit Miss Xie first, throwing his wife who had been waiting for a long time aside, so he just took a look from afar and came to the back of the house.

The two-entry house is not big, but the living room, study room, etc. will not be short. At this time, the lights are on in the study room. From the window, you can see that the processed files are neatly placed on the desk. Lingye's white cat curled up in a ball and lying on the table to sleep.

There was a sandalwood lit on the chess couch, Lingye half leaned against the chess table, supported his side face with his right hand and a book in his left hand, looking like he was reading at night; his half-lying posture was relatively lazy, and he could vaguely see the naked feet wrapped in black silk under the hem of the skirt.

Opposite the chess case, a mature beauty wearing a long cloud-white dress, holding a martial arts book in her hands, her legs bent and stacked, and her plump buttocks were laid on it, outlining a very tense but graceful line; the lace, which can only be described as magnificent, shows a heavy weight from the side.

big……

Even though Zuo Lingquan saw it many times, he would inevitably have such a first impression when he saw it. However, what attracted his attention the most was not Lingye's black silk and Qingwan's mind, but the expressions of the two.

Qingwan's character is quiet and gentle, giving people a sense of weakness. In the past, when she was with Lingye, she always maintained the attitude of a younger generation, but now she looked at her, she showed the momentum of being an elder in Qihuang Valley. She was not angry when she read books, and she obviously wanted to suppress Lingye in terms of momentum.

But Lingye was higher than Qingwan's experience in his cultivation and experience. Even though he was holding the "Yu Shu Tu of the Spring Palace" which was called the dark military strategy, he still took out a calm attitude of criticizing the memorials without any concessions.

Although the two women were silent, they could vaguely feel a smell of gunpowder hidden.

Zuo Lingquan knew where the smell of gunpowder came from. Qingwan had already roughly known about Lingye. When each other's identity changed, he naturally could not regard himself as a junior or a younger sister. After all, if she gave in, wouldn't Jiang Yi, who was younger than her, become the youngest?

Needless to say, Shangguan Lingye has to fight for anyone above him, and he must maintain his dominance.

When we meet on a narrow road, one person must give in.

Judging from what we have seen so far, no matter whether the two can distinguish the above or below, they can determine Zuo Lingquan's life and death.

Zuo Lingquan came back in a hurry, thinking about sleeping with the big quilt, but when he saw this scene, he was a little afraid to go in; after all, if he was wrong, he would have to bask in the yard all night tonight.

rustle

The sound of flipping through books sounded in the room from time to time.

Wu Qingwan did not notice Zuo Lingquan's silent infiltration, but Shangguan Lingye knew it from the moment he entered the house.

When he found Zuo Lingquan standing outside the window, not only not coming in, but also frowned and thought deeply. Shangguan Lingye closed the book in his hand and raised his eyes and said:

"Are you stupid by being beaten by Taohua Zun? What are you doing when you stand outside?"

"Um?"

Wu Qingwan quickly closed the exercises and turned her head. She found that the man who had been thinking about day and night for several months was standing outside the window. Her eyes were delighted, but she quickly returned to her quiet expression and said softly:

"Lingquan, you are back! Why don't you say hello in advance, I can go and pick you up."

Zuo Lingquan's thoughts had already floated until how to coax Lingye tomorrow morning. He was pulled back by the voice, and quickly put away his distracting thoughts, made a calm look, and walked into the room:

"Is there anything you can do to follow after a few steps? Seeing that you were reading a book and it was not easy to disturb you, I didn't come in directly."

"There is nothing wrong on the road, right?"

"No, I just accidentally bumped into someone's sect protection array..."

While Zuo Lingquan was talking, he came to the chess couch and glanced left and right.

Wu Qingwan has been thinking about how to stabilize Jiang Yi's status these days, but with her tiny practice, she couldn't let Shangguan Lingye understand 'sister's consciousness'. Seeing Zuo Lingquan hesitating where to sit, she raised her hand to signal the location opposite:

"Sit down and talk."

Let Zuo Lingquan sit in front of Lingye, it is not Qingwan's concession, but showing her sister's generosity and not competing with you, the little girl.

But Shangguan Lingye didn't think so much. She was embarrassed to sit with Zuo Lingquan, for fear that Zuo Lingquan would really stick to her, so she kept silently putting her legs in the empty seat beside her.

Zuo Lingquan knew that it was wrong to sit anywhere, so he sat down between the two of them, took off the sword and placed it on the chessboard, and continued to talk about the interesting story of breaking the formation of protecting the people.

Wu Qingwan was very concerned about Zuo Lingquan's experience and listened very seriously and did not interrupt.

Shangguan Lingye has experienced more, and naturally he is not interested in Zuo Lingquan's experience. Out of curiosity, he picked up the sword and looked carefully. Xuanming sword was old and old. The scabbard was black and brown and had fine tortoise shell patterns. I don't know what material the hilt of the sword was, but it looked like black wood. The sword bore and the sword head seemed to be old brass. The overall appearance was not good, but the sword was half an inch and only showed a half-spray of cold light, which was enough to make people's breath stagnate.

Although Shangguan Lingye was not a sword cultivator, he also noticed the weight of the sword and put it down again.

Zuo Lingquan talked with great enthusiasm for a long time, and found that he made him laugh. He no longer showed off his somewhat stretched sense of humor, and asked instead:

"I can't contact the outside when I'm on the way. How long does Jingyan have to be here?"

"Step by ferrying from the barren mountain, you have to run all nine sects to pass through Fulong Mountain to Zhongzhou. It will take half a month to calculate the time."

After hearing Zuo Lingquan talk nonsense, Shangguan Lingye sat up a little bit and talked about the serious matter:

"This time I went to the Shahai Sea, although there were many twists and turns, the benefits were not small. I calculated afterwards. I got an immortal soldier, a pair of Qilin horns, and a few rare materials. According to the rules, I will give the most effort this time, so I should take the big head; Miss Xie led the way, and the contribution was not small, so I also gave her a share. You didn't do much, but you took the most important fairy sword among the few objects. I felt guilty, so I still owe a lot of it. Do you have no objection?"

What can Zuo Lingquan say? If everyone belongs to him, can he still settle the score with his wife clearly?

"No objection, just divide it like this."

Shangguan Lingye nodded slightly, took out a small account book, and added another sum of what Zuo Lingquan owed.

Wu Qingwan sat next to her, trying to cut the topic to the relationship between Lingye and Zuo Lingquan, but she didn't know where to start. Seeing this scene, she smiled and said:

"We are all family, and I still remember it so clearly."

Shangguan Lingye paused his pen and did not respond to the family’s questions, but said;

"The essence of experience is to support one's own strength. If we rely solely on the accumulation of the sect's teachers, no matter how good the seedlings are, they will develop wealth and honor, and they will not endure the suffering and cannot withstand the storm; this is how everyone comes through it, and I still owe a lot of things to the Tiecu Mansion back then."

Zuo Lingquan asked curiously: "Have you paid it back?"??

Shangguan Lingye frowned, feeling that Zuo Lingquan was a little unreasonable.

She is one of the heirs of the Tiecu Mansion. She has been practicing her cultivation to the point of the alchemy elder, just as the leader dares not take it in the future, so why don’t you?

"Do you want to betray the debt?"
