[Xianjian + Ancient Sword Colleague] Being a master is also a kind of practice

From the next day, Shen Bailing found a very clean grove in the village, called Baili Wuyou and Han Xiuning to his side, and said solemnly, "Master is still seriously ill, so I entrust you two From now on, I will follow me to practice spells here every morning, and I can only go to play in the afternoon. Master has high hopes for you, and you should also settle down and study hard."

Han Xiuning and Baili Wuyou looked at each other, both showing bitter expressions.Seeing this, Shen Bailing was angry and funny, and immediately put on the airs of a big brother, taught the two of them a good lesson, and then began to teach.

After finally staying until noon, Baili Wuyou suddenly ran away like a wild horse that had been let off its rein.When Shen Bailing came back from lunch, he was nowhere to be seen in the open space. Looking at Han Xiuning again, Shen Bailing knew where Han Xiuning had gone, and she immediately smiled and went to meditate.

Unexpectedly, less than half an hour later, I heard light footsteps stepping through the forest, gradually approaching, and then a delicate voice called: "Brother Wushang, brother Wushang, are you here?"

Shen Bailing opened his eyes, and saw a slender black figure standing in the green shadow. The mottled sunlight fell on the dark long dress through the gaps in the leaves, dotted with gold dots, and the girl looked even more beautiful. It seemed to be shrouded in a bright fog, but there was a trace of bewilderment and a trace of embarrassment on that beautiful face, as if encountering some kind of problem.Shen Bailing hurriedly got up and walked out, asking, "It's Xiu Ning, what's the matter?"

Han Xiuning turned his wonderful eyes and saw him immediately, a flash of joy flashed in those bright big eyes, then as if he remembered something, he blushed and lowered his head, holding the waist hanging from his belt with both hands. The golden silk sash kept rubbing, as if there was something to say, but he hesitated and didn't know where to start.

It was rare for Shen Bailing to see his little junior sister so shy and coy, and he felt slightly puzzled, and couldn't help smiling and said: "What's the matter, could it be... Did this kid Wuyou say something that offended you?" He laughed again Advised, "Wuyou has always cared about you the most, even if he offends, it's all because he cared about you wholeheartedly, so don't despise him."

Hearing this, Han Xiuning's pretty face became more and more red. After a while, he shook his head lightly. I don't know if it means that Baili Wuyou didn't offend her, or that she didn't dislike Baili Wuyou .

Seeing that she was ashamed but not annoyed, Shen Bailing thought that Baili Wuyou didn't offend her, so he smiled and said: "The three of us grew up together, and when you were young, you always fought with Wuyou, but now you are as good as you are." It's like a person, but my big brother has become an outsider, and you don't want to tell me anything."

Only then did Han Xiuning raise his head, and said in a low voice, "No way! I...how could I treat Brother Wushang as an outsider." Facing Shen Bailing's smiling eyes, her shy face that had faded a little bit suddenly turned up again. Two touches of blush, like white jade dyed with rosy clouds, "I... I... I... are all Wuyou big fools!" It took a while to blurt out such a resentful sentence, but there was not much resentment in his tone, "It's all his fault... suddenly told others..."

"What?" Shen Bailing couldn't help but asked deliberately.

Han Xiuning didn't see the narrowness in his eyes, he was only absorbed in the scene of being held by Baili Wuyou not long ago, his face was like a steamed crab, even a pair of ears were bright red .She tugged at her belt and twisted her body, then whispered: "He said...he said...what, what'do you have him in your heart', whether you are happy or not...Oh, I am ashamed to death !” After speaking halfway, he refused to continue, just stomped his feet, and covered his face in embarrassment.

It's just that although she covered her eyes, she still kept her ears upright to listen to the senior brother's movement, but she didn't hear the sound for a long time, so she had to secretly look up through her fingers, but the young man in front of her turned her face away. His shoulders couldn't help shrugging, it was obvious that he was already full of smiles and joy.

Han Xiuning suddenly became angry from embarrassment, and shouted: "Brother Wushang!"

Shen Bailing quickly suppressed her smile, and apologized again and again: "It's my fault, Xiu Ning don't want to be angry." As he spoke, he stroked the top of her head very gently, and said, "What's so embarrassing, a man is a married woman When you get married, Xiu Ning is also a big girl now, it's a good thing someone likes it."

Seeing Shen Bailing's expression, for some reason, a sense of disappointment welled up in his chest. Han Xiuning stared at Shen Bailing for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Brother Wushang, what did you say to me that fool Wuyou?" , you... are you not angry at all?"

Shen Bailing said inexplicably: "Why are you angry? Your childhood sweetheart, childhood sweetheart, he likes you, and you like him too. That's a good thing. It's too late for me to be happy for you. Why are you angry?"

Before she finished speaking, Shen Bailing felt a pain in the back of her hand, and the hand on Xiu Ning's head had been thrown away heavily by her.Looking at Han Xiuning again, her face instantly became white and white, without any trace of shame, she stomped her feet vigorously, and said angrily: "I don't want you to be happy for me, what kind of plum horse, I don't like nothing You big fool, I, I don't like you, brother Wushang either!" As he said that, tears welled up in his big eyes, he gave Shen Bailing a hateful look, turned around and ran out of the woods.

Seeing the slim and graceful figure disappearing at the end of his sight, Shen Bailing just stood there alone and did not chase after him. After a long time, the grove returned to calm, and he shook his head slowly and let out a sigh.

Han Xiuning's girlish thoughts about him, Shen Bailing is not stupid, how could he not know, but he has the memory of the past since he was a child, the body of a young child is stuffed with the soul of a grown man, naturally he will not have the innocence of young people Lively, facing a pretty girl like Xiu Ning, he just treats her as a junior or a younger sister, without the slightest thought of being charming.When he returned from a trip here, he learned that he was a remnant soul who had robbed other people's bodies. He was already full of guilt towards Baili's family, so how could he do such a thing as robbing Baili Wuyou's sweetheart.Therefore, he had no choice but to pretend not to know what was going on with Han Xiuning, not to let Xiuning fall into deep trouble, and to avoid embarrassment for each other.But now that something like this happened, it seems that embarrassment is inevitable in the future, so he had no choice but to turn his helplessness into this sigh.

Sure enough, Han Xiuning avoided the Baili brothers for several days. Although he had to go to the woods to practice with them in the morning, he always kept a cold face and ignored everyone. He left immediately in the afternoon. He didn't look back, and he just avoided them on weekdays.Baili Wuyou was very distressed, he only thought that he had offended her by confessing rashly, and regretted it in private, but Shen Bailing vaguely guessed that this might not be the case.

More than a month later, Shen Bailing had given Xiu Ning and Wuyou all the witchcraft he had learned from Han Li, and the two young girls seemed to have vaguely noticed it from the expressions of their master and senior brother. What, not only did he stop complaining, but also practiced harder and harder, and his skills improved a lot.Shen Bailing tested them every half a month, and was very happy to see this.

After the school exam that day, Shen Bailing praised Xiu Ning and Wuyou greatly, let them play by themselves, and only thought when he was alone: ​​Now that the master has taught them all the spells, they are some superior wizards They couldn't understand the technique for a while, but they have memorized the formula firmly. Now they are very sensible and don't need me to supervise and supervise them every day. It seems that it is time for me to leave the valley.

He had already thought about this idea, but because he promised Han Li first, he couldn't just let it go. Seeing that Han Xiuning and Baili Wuyou are not what they used to be, they have lived up to their master's trust.What's more, Li Chuhuang was spying on Wumeng Linggu secretly. If he didn't do something, he would just sit and wait to die. It would be better to find ways to contact the outside world. If you know that such evil spirits are going on in the same way, I am afraid that you will not wait for the spirit witches to ask for help to suppress them first, but you will save the spirit witches a lot of energy, and the catastrophe will be solved easily.

Shen Bailing told Han Li all of his thoughts. Although Han Li felt that it was inappropriate for foreigners to intervene in the family's affairs, he also thought it was a good idea, so he nodded and agreed.

So a few days later, Shen Bailing arranged all the affairs of the clan, packed his bags, and set foot on the road out of the valley again.

When it comes to the sects of Taoism in the Central Plains, the eight schools of Kunlun are the first to be recommended.Coming out of southern Xinjiang, crossing the Central Plains and flying over the desert, Shen Bailing finally saw the majestic and distant mountains in the distance after more than ten days.Seeing Kunlun, the past and the past came to my mind one by one.Back then, among the eight sects in the depths of Baiyun, the Qionghua faction headed by them had long since turned into a cloud of smoke, and even the former Taoist temples and pavilions had been turned into fly ash following the promotion of the Jupai.Shen Bailing thought of the old things, and couldn't help but go to the mountain where the Qionghua faction used to be.

The desert is boundless and the yellow sand stretches. The Boxian Town at the foot of the mountain has been changed several times and has long been renamed Qiemo Town. However, the foreign people in the town are still as hospitable as ever.After entering the town, Shen Bailing found the inn to rest for a while, when the proprietress heard that he was going up to Kunlun Mountain, she immediately waved her hands to dissuade her: "Guests from Zhongyuan, please don't go to the mountain, there are monsters on the mountain, once you go up, you can't come back. "

Shen Bailing was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "I heard that there were many immortal cultivators on that mountain, how could there be monsters?"

The proprietress shook her head and said: "That happened hundreds of years ago. The old people often say that there are indeed gods living on that mountain, but later the gods got angry and sent fire from the sky. After that, no gods came down from the mountain anymore." , On the contrary, there are many more monsters, and people who go up the mountain are often injured by monsters, and then no one dares to go up the mountain again."

Shen Bailing frowned, only feeling sad. 400 years ago, when the Qionghua School was at its peak, it was the head of the Kunlun Eight Schools, and was revered by the people at the foot of the mountain. Once it fell, no one remembered it. Even Xianshan, where many famous people were born, was also reduced to people A terrible place to avoid in the eyes.

He was heartbroken, and suddenly thought of something, secretly said: Junior Sister Suyao once said that when Jupai ascended, she used spells to keep the forbidden area in the mountains, and entrusted Ziying, Murong Ziying... ...I haven't seen him in 400 years, he... I don't know if he is still alive?
