Chapter 548
After Ningxia left the team, it was not far away. It was still leaning on the periphery of the Greedy Wolf Mace and would not seem too far behind.
She also chose a direction where she could see the movements of Lang San, so that it would be convenient to wait for an opportunity to move.
"Senior Sister Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought I wouldn't see you before the end."
“It’s really been a long time since I saw you…”
"Fellow Daoist Xu." Ningxia nodded to Xu Liang who followed him silently.
This guy seemed to have encountered some bad things, his eyebrows were filled with depression, which was very different from the spirit he was when he met half a year ago. It was hard to believe that this was the same person and his condition was in a bad state.
I guess it was because of Tang Wen'an's affairs. Ningxia had heard it all in her spare time and secretly complained about that bold guy.
It has been so long since this, and this fellow Daoist Xu still looks like he has not come out. This is really an excellent senior brother. He is not his responsibility, but he refuses to let him go.
Not only did Tang Wen'an really harm himself, but he also let his senior brother suffer. Can't he go to the island honestly? He had to take the attention to the Holy Vein and get involved in other people's century-old dramas.
In the end, he ended up losing himself. Even if the man from the Greedy Wolf Mace doesn't deal with him now, he will probably not be able to escape unscathed after returning to the sect.
"Are you here to participate in the sword competition? You two?" Ning Xia asked casually.
"Well. I signed up for the Qi training team and wanted to see the world, so it would not be a waste of time." Unexpectedly, the one who responded to her first was not a senior brother with a thorough manners, but the young master Xie Shi.
This young man who was too naive in the past seemed to have changed a lot and grown a lot in the days when he had not met. He even made great progress in his expression, words and deeds.
After hearing his answer, he still responded actively. Ningxia could judge that it must have come to register out of his personal wishes.
If it were the past, he would not have come so bravely to participate in the sword competition. It would have been too late to hide. Unexpectedly, this young boy would have such a big change in just half a year.
Ningxia can be regarded as watching him transform with his own eyes, and his mood has been very different in the past six months, and he suddenly felt that life was a change of human beings.
"Oh, those young people are too young and have a weak cultivation level, so they are unwilling to come and join in the fun. So this time, only Junior Brother Xie and I are attending this ceremony." Xu Liang shook his head and answered Ningxia's questions, saying that those young people will not attend this ceremony.
"Where are you, Senior Sister Ning? Are you here to participate in the sword competition?" Xie Shi asked in confusion.
It was not that he hadn't seen Ningxia's obvious uniform, but he couldn't figure out the reason, so he asked this question.
Ningxia shook her head: "I won't attend this time. I've been sick a while ago and haven't recovered yet. There are many experts from the ceremony. I, the injured, will not join in the fun."
"Are you injured?!" Xie Shi was shocked and quickly observed his friend's face. Sure enough, he saw that the person was pale and weak, as if he was not in sufficient energy. He really looked like he was sick.
He realized something was wrong when he met just now. He felt that Ningxia's face was not right, but he was soon dispersed by the joy of reunion. Now that the other party said this, he immediately saw it clearly.
There are few monks who get sick, and once they get sick, there is nothing good. Few monks get sick all the time.
Thinking of Ningxia's "lost contact" a while ago, I thought I knew that the other party must have been in trouble. However, Ningxia was unwilling to say it, and he couldn't chase and ask, so he had to suppress it for the time being.
Ningxia made a nonsense and fooled people for the time being. Several of them didn't continue to talk about this topic in a tacit understanding.
"By the way, that..." Xie Shi seemed to remember something and was about to ask, but he met Ningxia's deep eyes. The words he slipped to his mouth suddenly stopped and swallowed them back.
He saw the other party shook his head slightly, and Xie Shi immediately turned his mouth and said, "...when will you go back to the inn?"
Ningxia breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the other party understood his hint.
No matter what it is, Chonghuan is not convenient to mention it anymore. At least not on this land.
Xie Shi had been with them for so long before, and he could guess something. Even though Ningxia had never told him about anything related to him, he probably guessed that Chonghuan's identity was sensitive.
So when the general asked, he saw Ningxia's strange look and cleverly put away everything and didn't ask.
Ningxia also believes that the other party will not mention such a person to others here, whether it is to his fellow disciples or other strangers.
"I probably won't go back to the inn anymore. I'll ask you, Junior Brother, to settle the account for me, so as not to continue to hand over the spirit stones in vain."
Ningxia remembered that she left in a hurry that day, and directly moved from Siwuxing to the Greedy Wolf Mace Door, but she didn't think about checking out. Although she thought Xie Shi would think of this, she still mentioned this, for fear that there would be something in case.
"Senior Sister Ning, I moved to Senior Brother Xu's inn the next day after listening to you. I've already returned your room to you. How could it be delayed until now? Otherwise, what a big debt would it be?" Xie Shi was a little amused and crying.
Senior Sister Ning is not worried about anything else, so why do she worry about these irrelevant things? Is she so unreliable in her eyes?
"I'm not afraid you will forget it? After all, there are so many days of chaos and you may forget anything. Otherwise, it would be a thank you. If we were found out when we were leaving, it would be so embarrassing."
Ningxia also knew that her brain and thoughts were very clear, and she probably was embarrassed by others again. But she just couldn't control her occasionally leaping thinking.
"Senior Sister Ning, you..."
Xu Liang looked at the two people chatting with a smile, silent, and did not intend to intervene in the dialogue between the two "children".
...
"Your relationship is really good." Xu Liang sighed.
Xie Shi was about to say something...
However, Ningxia saw that Lang San's side seemed to be almost done, so she hurriedly said, "Sorry, I'm going to leave. I'll talk to you about the past next time."
He said he was looking for them, but in fact he was just looking for Xie Shi. She also wanted to talk to Xie Shi about Chonghuan's matter. If it was true or not, she would at least tell him.
After all, Xie Shi is the second person in the world who has witnessed the existence of Chonghuan. Ningxia thinks at least he should tell him.
Xie Shi and the others also saw the movement over there, expressed their understanding and said goodbye, and did not say much.
So when Lang San came back, Xie Shi and the others had already left to do their own business. The two sides did not meet.
"Have you seen your junior brother?" Lang San asked with his eyebrows raised.
"Well. Soon, I met and chatted for a while."
"Don't worry, when the sword competition is over, you and your fellow brothers will be able to go back. Mrs. Hongji will personally send you back."
