The morning sun rises.

On the Yunwu River, there is a hazy mist and a chilly air.

The carriage slowly stopped by the river.

The two people in the car lingered in the car for a while before walking out.

Luo Qingzhou escaped from the carriage and walked towards the boat on the river.

Aunt Mu and Aunt Jiu both took a look at him and found that his lips had been bitten and there were also several teeth marks on his neck. It looked like he had been severely ravaged.

Nangong Meijiao was wearing a purple dress, standing gracefully on the carriage, looking at him reluctantly, and suddenly said: "Remember to come back early!"

Luo Qingzhou jumped onto the boat, turned around and waved his hand, saying: "Princess, please go back quickly."

Nangong Meijiao suddenly jumped off the carriage, ran to the riverside with her long straight legs, and said fiercely: "Also, remember not to get dirty, do you hear me?"

Luo Qingzhou nodded, turned to look at the boatman and said, "Let's sail the boat."

"Great, guests beware!"

The boatman agreed, immediately picked up his pennant, drove the boat, and left slowly.

In Nangong Meijiao's eyes, mist suddenly appeared like the surface of a lake, hazy and sparkling.

The boat gradually sailed towards the other shore.

The figure on the bow of the boat slowly disappeared into the smoke on the river.

Facing the morning sun and cold wind, Nangong Meijiao stood by the river for a long time. Fang wiped her tears, turned around, and returned to the carriage in despair.

"Aunt Mu, I want to stick to him forever. I want to be integrated with him and never be separated..."

She sat in the carriage and cried.

Aunt Mu sighed softly and did not dare to speak.

Nanny Nine on the side endured it, but couldn't help but said: "Princess, girls, you have to be reserved, so that you won't be looked down upon by him."

After a while.

"drive!"

Aunt Mu drove the carriage back towards the way it came.

Ninth Ninth, leaning on a cane, staggered behind and said with a sad face: "Princess, let me go. I won't speak anymore. I'm old and frail, and I can't run anymore."

As she said that, she saw the carriage running away, so she had no choice but to follow it without landing.

When Luo Qingzhou reached the opposite river bank, he did not rush up the mountain, but went to the house he saw last night.

After walking through overgrown paths and lush wilderness, we soon arrived at the house on the river.

The fence in the front yard has been fenced, and some seeds seem to have been sown in the soft soil.

There are no more weeds in the yard, and there is a path paved with bluestones in the middle, leading to the courtyard of the house.

Everything under the eaves has been tidied up.

The windowsills, railings, and stone tables and benches in the courtyard were all wiped spotless.

A few sparrows landed in the courtyard inside and were chirping non-stop.

Luo Qingzhou did not go in. He stood outside and watched for a while. Fang turned around and left with a complicated expression, going directly around the back mountain.

He took out the summons document and sent a message to Linghu Qingzhu: [Uncle Master, I am here, in the back mountain]

Just after sending the message, he suddenly heard a familiar sound of cave flutes coming from the hillside not far away.

It turned out that she had been waiting for him there for a long time.

I don’t know if it came before dawn this morning, or if I didn’t go back at all last night.

Luo Qingzhou quickened his pace.

Not long after, I saw a familiar figure dressed in green and holding a jade flute on the hillside.

Luo Qingzhou walked up the hillside and said, "Uncle Master, are you here so early?"

Linghu Qingzhu looked at him and said with a cold expression: "I have nothing to do today, so I came to the foot of the mountain for a walk, not just to wait for you."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Oh."

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

After being silent for a while, Linghu Qingzhu said: "I have already found a house for you. Let me take you to see it. If you are satisfied, you can move in at any time."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Forget it, let's see next time. I want to go up the mountain to practice."

Linghu Qingzhu looked at him and said: "There is no rush in cultivation. You have just made a breakthrough not long ago, do you still want to make a breakthrough?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "Of course I do."

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Although you are very talented and practice very quickly, you have broken through two levels in a row before. If you want to break through to the next level again, it will not be possible in less than a year. So, hurry up

It’s no use either.”

Luo Qingzhou nodded and said: "Uncle Master is right. Cultivation cannot be achieved overnight, let alone be impatient. However, I still want to go into seclusion to practice as soon as possible. Uncle Master, let's go up the mountain."

Linghu Qingzhu frowned slightly, looked at him again, said nothing, turned and walked towards the mountain.

Luo Qingzhou asked: "Uncle Master, nothing major has happened to the sect recently, right?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Apart from the fact that the saint from Xianyun Pavilion dropped her harsh words and came to the sect to settle accounts with you, there are no other major events."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Do you know when she will come?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "It should be these two days."

Luo Qingzhou shrugged and said: "Then I'll just admit defeat. After I go up the mountain, I will be in seclusion for at least three days. When she comes, my uncle will say that I am afraid of her and just admit defeat."

.”

Linghu Qingzhu stopped, turned to look at him and said: "You are a man and the only direct disciple of the sect leader, can you have a sense of responsibility? Do you think that the competition between you and her is just between the two of you?

?”

Luo Qingzhou said: "But I do want to practice in seclusion."

Linghu Qingzhu was silent for a moment and asked: "You are in a hurry to practice and move in a hurry. Did something happen in Kyoto? Was your killing of Jin Yiwei discovered?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "Uncle, don't accuse me wrongly. I have never killed a Jin Yiwei."

Linghu Qingzhu snorted coldly and continued walking towards the mountain, saying: "Then just think that they disappeared on their own. Regarding the fact that the Saint of Xianyun Pavilion is coming to you, I am just helping the sect leader to tell you, what are you doing?

You decide whether you want to compete with her or not, I have no control over it."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Anyway, I don't know when she will come. I can't just wait for her on the mountain. Uncle Master, I will start practicing in seclusion tonight. If she comes, let her wait. Anyway, it is

She comes to trouble me, and it’s not that I come to trouble her. If she doesn’t want to wait, she can just leave on her own. Our Lingxiao Sect is not weaker than her Xianyun Pavilion, so why should we let her go if we are the direct disciples of my sect master?”

Linghu Qingzhu turned to look at him and said: "Why are you so stubborn now? But I want to tell you, in fact, our Lingxiao Sect cannot afford to offend the Xianyun Pavilion. That's why the sect leader wants to facilitate this marriage.

"

The two talked and quickly went up the mountain.

Linghu Qingzhu took him directly to Jianfeng, found a cave for him, and said: "You will practice here from now on. If you have anything, you can go to me directly."

This cave is close to the cliff, very close to her cave, separated only by a patch of rocks and a small path.

There is a cliff in front of the cave, and many colorful flowers are planted behind it. There is a bamboo forest on the left, and there is a steaming hot spring under the mountain wall not far away.

Linghu Qingzhu said: "No one usually uses that hot spring. If you want to take a bath, you can go there. If you want to find your senior sister, just take the path on the left. Su Feng and Su Yu live not far away.

Behind that flower garden. Anyway, you can wander around Jianfeng as you like, but it’s best not to run too far. I haven’t told anyone else about your coming to the mountain yet.”

Luo Qingzhou said: "Thank you very much, uncle."

Linghu Qingzhu explained a few more words and said: "I know you are in a hurry to practice, so I won't disturb you. I will go to the main peak to tell the sect master so that she can be prepared. If the saint from Xianyun Pavilion really comes,

Well, let’s help you block it first. But it still depends on the sect leader’s decision.”

After saying that, she left the cave without staying any longer.

After seeing her leave, Luo Qingzhou looked around the cave again, walked out, walked around, and found that the hot spring was indeed a good place.

The hot spring is located under the rock wall and is surrounded by lush flowers and plants. If you take a bath there, it should be very quiet.

He thought about it and didn't go to find Sister Dao, nor did he go to find anyone else.

He came to Jianfeng to practice, not to talk.

His time is limited and he must go back quickly.

Returning to the cave, he went to the stone chamber next to him. He first practiced the internal skills and mental techniques for a while, and then started practicing the "Diamond Explosive Fist".

The stone chambers are all specially made and can withstand great impacts without any damage.

Therefore, when he practiced the "Diamond Explosive Fist", he did not hold back his strength, but directly started the most ferocious moves.

After a set of boxing skills, you will feel full and hearty.

I have been practicing at noon, my clothes are soaked with sweat, and all the internal energy in my body has been exhausted.
