"There are many strange things about Yanran's death."

Gu Tan, Mingzhen and his wife followed Qi Xiu and came out of the mourning hall where Nangong Yanran was parked. Mingzhen said sadly: "Not long after she left me, I didn't expect... that the yin and yang were separated. At that time, I saw that everything was normal with her.

, there is absolutely no sign of dying..."

"Zen Master Fayin can also testify." Gu Tan added: "Yanran left Siguo Mountain and went to Shanduqian, and also took a trip to Tianyin Temple."

"Amitabha."

Fa Yin also came up to greet her and joined him in tithe, "Nangong Tanyue briefly chatted with the poor monk about the shrimp, camel and beast in the small temple. At that time, it seemed that she was just a little moody."

"Well, Zen Master Xie made a special trip."

Qi Xiu forced out a smile and exchanged a few words with Fa Yin, whom he had not seen for many years. This was not the occasion to reminisce, so he turned around with his hands behind his hands and took the opportunity to glance in the direction of the mourning hall.

Qin Changfeng was standing in a daze beside his beloved wife's coffin. Next to him, Nangong Xiang was crying with tears. Duo Luosen was comforting her softly. Xiong Shishi, Xiong Futing, Song Zhongqian and other big vassal family heads gathered outside the door to talk.

…

At the same time, he sensed that Gu Tan behind him was quietly gesturing towards Zhan Jianfeng at the foot of the slope outside, so Zhan Jianfeng, who was surrounded by Kan Xuan, Yu Qing'er and other disciples of the Initial Family talking, came out and called a few of them.

The unfamiliar monk Chu Qin came over.

Further away, there are Minglu, Qin Zhonglin, Luo Xinwu and other inner disciples of Chu and Qin. Their figures standing solemnly with their hands lowered are hidden by the colorful pine trees, ancient cypresses, and wonderful trees and flowers in the mountains behind Chu En.

"Uncle Master, these junior brothers and nephews were present at the time. I have brought them all."

Zhan Jianfeng led the team to the front, saluted and reported.

"Um."

Qi Xiu stopped on the cliff edge of the peak and looked down the mountain. The news of Nangong Yanran's death had not yet spread. The order of the fairy city at the foot of Chuen Mountain was as usual, and the crowds were like small dots moved by ants, flowing on the streets.

"You guys tell me." Seeing that he was noncommittal, Zhan Jianfeng ordered the people who brought him to report back one by one.

Gu Tan then signaled to Ming Zhen and Fa Yin, leading the two of them to retreat.

"At that time, the head of the general affairs led the waiters and took the shuttle to Siguo Mountain. She left me waiting outside and went to Master Mingshu's Cave Mansion alone as a guest. I stayed there for about four or five sticks of incense. When I came out, I was in a good mood to watch

It was a bit bad, but we didn’t think it was a big problem at the time. The head of the general affairs department never bothered to hide his emotions and anger in front of us. His temper comes and goes quickly..."

The Liu family built a foundation and began to explain in detail: "Then we took the shuttle and went to Tianyin Temple."

Chasing the past...

Qi Xiu listened and saw that humanity swept into the hearts of these people. There was nothing suspicious. He listened in silence as the Liu Family Establishment reviewed the details before Nangong Yanran's death. He couldn't help but be distracted and recalled the time before he formed the elixir.

I once wrote an elixir theory, which may lead to the road to omniscience of the past, "It was not my original intention." I had made a choice at that time, and now I am reciting it silently in my heart.

"She wanted to get those thousands of shrimp and camel beasts back from Zen Master Fayin, but Zen Master Fayin refused. After she came out, her mood became worse and worse. In front of us, she even... she even scolded the head master, Uncle Master.

sentence, saying that you don’t care about anything, you only know... uh... uh..."

Liujiaji Zhuji gritted his teeth and said, "I only know how to reach out and ask for money." After saying that, he quickly raised his eyes and secretly peeked at the back of the master's uncle. Seeing no reaction, Fang continued in a relaxed tone.

Qi Xiu knew that Gu Tan's arrangement was probably to clear his and Ming Zhen's suspicions in Nangong Yanran's death as soon as possible. In the eyes of outsiders, who among the Chu Qin sect would be with Qin Changfeng, Nangong

Yanran and his wife were wrestling in secret, and he was the only one left with Gu Tan and Mingzhen. Nangong Yanran happened to go to Mingzhen's place before she died...

In fact, in this matter, everyone who was close to Nangong Yanran secretly speculated that the cause of death was the same, which was the normal stagnation of inner fire and the chaos of spiritual energy in the body that led to Nangong Yanran's sudden death.

Just like Chu Shenchang who suddenly died in mid-flight, some monks do do this. A string in their heart suddenly breaks...

Qi Xiu had just examined it carefully and found nothing suspicious about Nangong Yanran's body.

Everyone including the Liu Family Foundation Establishment, Kan Xuan and other Nangong Yanran's best friends, and even Qin Changfeng, who knew his wife best, and Qi Xiu himself, who had an insight into people's hearts, all speculated in this way.

Nangong Yanran has always been high-spirited, and she has always been angry that Mingzhen's road was smoother than hers. Gu Tan took away her husband's position as the next head of the family. She was already old, and suddenly saw Gu again. Ming and his wife got a better job than him.

Gu Wuyue, who is much more outstanding than all the descendants of Changfeng...

From the time when Mingzhen was Pan Jialuo's wife, Nangong Yanran wanted to compete with Mingzhen in everything. As a result, she couldn't compare with Mingzhen in everything in her life. It was inevitable that she would become more and more angry. The Shandu Mountain where she settled happened to be a place with spiritual energy disorder, so...

…

Gu Tan, who is really smart, should be able to guess right, but it's just hard for them to tell.

It's not my intention to peek into the secrets of heaven.

Since there was no chance that Nangong Yanran would be killed by internal or external enemies, Qi Xiu did not intend to sacrifice his precious life and used his acting talent to find a conclusive answer.

only……

He looked at the grief-stricken Qin Changfeng again, and felt even more guilty. Ever since he deliberately led Nangong Yanran to become obsessed with the sect's common affairs, this day would come sooner or later.

Nangong Yanran talked about everything in front of her skillfully and smoothly, her complaining voice and smile, her little woman's thoughts that she was not very good at concealing from beginning to end, her consistent love for her husband Qin Changfeng, and her love for the Chu Qinmen.

Work hard...

The moment before he died, he was still listening to the deacon of the mine in Shandu Mountain.

If in the early years she was still affectionate on the surface but defensive on the inside, many years later, she was as close as her old brothers from Chu and Qin, and treated like children.

Even though he had been mentally prepared, Qi Xiu still felt sad and sad when he thought about this event.

"Later, the head of the general affairs returned to Shandu Mountain with us to discuss buying some more shrimp and camel beasts from the Royal Beast Sect. During this period, she complained about Uncle Miaoqing. The original words were..."

"Okay, no need to say any more, you all just step back."

The general disciples who were present at that time all had no problem. Qi Xiu turned his palms inward, waved his hands slightly, interrupted the Liu family's foundation building and said, "Jianfeng, you stay here."

"Uncle Master, we have detained and tortured the immortal prisoners of war of the Lingmu Alliance in Shandu Mountain for decades. In the past ten or twenty years, they had sent people to sneak into the vicinity many times in an attempt to rescue them.

.Although there have been no changes in recent years, will it be..."

Zhan Jianfeng didn't know what his master's uncle, who was turning his back on him, was thinking, so he expressed his suspicions.

It's not my intention to sit aside, no worries!

His own way is no longer to cut off the world. Even if he goes to Qiyun to have a baby and leaves Chu and Qin, Qi Xiu will not give up his habit of worrying about everything as long as he is the head of the family for a day. Zhan Jianfeng is Zhan Yuan, and Zhan Jianfeng is Zhan Yuan.

After the feud, the old brother's greatest hope for the original family has not yet formed a pill, and Qi Xiu is unavoidably worried about it.

And there are a lot of talented young people over there who are all good-natured...

He looked at Minglu and the others in the distance. Among them, Minglu was the oldest. He should be ninety-four or five this year, right?

There is still a chance for those seedlings to form elixirs. I had promised to pass on my skills before, so I happened to rush back to attend the funeral, so I hurriedly did it together. I hope it can help them. It has indeed been too long that no one in the Chu Qin sect has formed elixirs.

"Jianfeng, how old are you this year?"

He turned around and looked at Zhan Jianfeng.

"Reporting to the Master, Uncle, he is one hundred and sixteen years old." Zhan Jianfeng replied.

"Um."

Qi Xiu looked at him carefully. Zhan Jianfeng now looked like a middle-aged man. His many years of military service had made him stand upright, like a flying sword about to be unsheathed.

He also has a little more flesh, a bronze complexion, a stout body, and a square face. He gradually looks less like Naizu Zhanyuan and Zhanqiu. Several faint scars in different directions remain on his face forever.

superior.

"Kan Xuan and the others are all worried about your future on the road. I know you like to stay in the army, which will delay your cultivation. You need to know that as monks, everything is related to the road. If you put the cart before the horse, today Yanran... you too

Saw it."

Qi Xiu knew that over the years, Zhan Jianfeng had to fight in almost every battle of the Chu and Qin sect. Although he was fighting for the sake of the sect's public interest, there were some missions that he was qualified to refuse. "Some such as going to the south to serve as guest troops, the sect

Life or death does not matter here, and killing for those sects in the south has nothing to do with justice. You can just go there once, I have already said hello to your Uncle Gu, and in recent years, you should spend more time on cultivation."

"yes."

Zhan Jianfeng first agreed respectfully, and then replied: "Those old brothers below have been with me for a long time. If I don't go with them, I will always worry that without my leadership, they will suffer a loss... In the end, I was silent."

I can’t stop cultivating my mind.”

"Um."

Zhan Jianfeng's character has always been upright, and worrying about his old brother is particularly similar to his own. Qi Xiu nodded in admiration. It seems that he is not the kind of person who is full of murderous intent and enjoys the way of killing after hearing the war.

He is a person, but it is better to see clearly in person before he can rest assured, so he said: "You know that among my senior disciples of Chu Qin, there is a person named Zhao Yao. He once surpassed the Foundation Establishment monks when practicing Qi. At that time, he was more promising than you.

Yuanda, it turned out that because she was obsessed with studying killing techniques, she accidentally fell into the path of killing demons when she was forming pills. She was wanted by Dazhou Academy and has been on the run. Now she is probably..."

Speaking of this, Qi Xiu shook his head and gave up the ominous suspicion, "I didn't know the power of it at the time. I didn't restrain her and persuaded her, which led to a big mistake. Every time I think about it, I always feel sad. The two armies faced each other.

Although it is inevitable for you to kill me and for me to kill you, you must always remember not to be obsessed with it. I, Chu Qin, originally came from the Qiyun Taoist sect, and I kill only for the ultimate killing, that's all."

"yes."

Zhan Jianfeng accepted the instruction sincerely, "I can't do it."

"Okay, okay."

Qi Xiu nodded again with satisfaction. Just as he was stroking his palms and smiling in praise, Zhan Jianfeng said again: "But my Dao is indeed in the ranks. Every time I am in the formation, my mind becomes clear. Every time I hold the hilt of the sword, my Dao heart heals."

Jian, live and die with Pao Ze, and live bravely, I will feel happy in life, and I will not hesitate to do anything. I know that my road is a bit difficult, but if I really live in the quiet room of the cave, always accompanied by scrolls and green lanterns, my thoughts will be

It’s hard to understand. I’m almost a hundred and twenty years old now. If I continue to violate my original intention and find a path of pure cultivation, won’t all my previous efforts be wasted?”

His words touched Qi Xiu in turn. A firm goal is always better than hesitation. If Mo Jianxin had resolutely followed the path of sword training and foundation building, he might have been able to form an elixir with Dorosentan.

It worked out that way, and it can still be by my side now...
