"Old friend? What old friend?"

"Maybe Miss Mingyue no longer remembers this old friend, but she remembers Miss Mingyue."

"What does she remember me have to do with me?"

"Oh? Doesn't Miss Mingyue want to know who you are? Where did you come from? If I heard that it was good, Miss Mingyue, you probably don't remember what happened before? If you go to see this old friend, you might know..."

"Who am I? Of course I am me. What does it matter where I come from?"

There were still people lying all over the floor in the hall, and the people in Shenji Hall were better. The young heroes of the righteous alliance were all lying in pools of blood. Some couldn't help but moan, and some were still calling for help at Li Shishi and Nangong Tong. On the armor left by Zeng Jiuwen, the pink insects were still squirming with energy. Although the sunlight on the transparent roof was warm, the atmosphere in the hall was still strange, gloomy, terrifying and shrill.

But in this strange and terrifying environment, Tang Jianyu, who was standing in the middle and the well-deserved winner and dominant in this game, was very kind and kind, just like coaxing the little girl next door to talk to Mingyue, and Mingyue also answered naturally.

At the door, Li Shishi pulled Nangong Tong out step by step, as if he could not see the young men on the ground who were struggling to call for help. Nangong Tong was already full of tears and did not dare to look at those people at all. He didn't know where the flying demeanor and confidence had gone. He knew that these people were killed by him, and his heart was far less tough than a shadow guard. But he didn't dare to speak, and he didn't have the slightest confidence to say anything. Now he just felt like an ant, even worse than an ant. It was just a burden to drag people down.

However, even in this state of mind, he still had some thoughts and listened to the words of Tang Jianyu and Mingyue behind him.

Although Tang Jianyu was very kind and had many reasons to say, it seemed to be very sufficient. At least other ordinary people would never refuse, Mingyue finally shook her head calmly: "I don't know what you are talking about. Anyway, Taoist Xia didn't say go. I won't go."

"Oh, is it that Master Qingfeng? Then let's invite him to go together. My fourth brother is his good friend." Tang Jianyu smiled slightly. The news in Tangjiabao is more informative than most people imagined. He turned to Li Shishi who was pulling Nangong Tong out of the other side. "Where is Master Qingfeng? Where have you sent him? I haven't paid much attention to the news outside these days. I don't know."

Li Shishi stopped, turned around and shook his head: "Some time ago, Miss He Sier sent a letter and said that something big happened to her, Master Qingfeng..."

"It seems you still don't understand how to speak as a shadow guard." Tang Jianyu's smile and voice were all cold and sharp. "When facing an opponent who is higher than you and needs to be taken seriously, lying randomly cannot solve any problem, and it can only expose your own problems. And even if you want to lie, you can't swear while dragging a companion who knows the truth and doesn't lie back. The young master Nangong's breathing and heartbeat have been completely chaotic, twice. The first time was when I heard me advised Miss Mingyue to go to Tangjiabao. I can see that he was the girl who had long admired this fairy-like girl in his heart and couldn't bear to leave her, but the second time was when I heard that Taoist Qingfeng. Does he still like this Taoist priest at the same time?"

"What's wrong with Taoist Xia?" Mingyue turned her head and frowned at Nangong Tong and Li Shishi. She might not be able to understand the meaning of the words themselves. But the things represented in it could feel them.

Nangong Tong's body shook for a moment, but he did not look back.

Li Shishi let go of Nangong Tong. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then he clasped his fists and bowed to Tang Jianyu: "Thank you for your advice from Eleventh Young Master. That's true. I shouldn't hide anything from Eleventh Young Master... Then I will stand from the angle of Lord Nangong's order and tell you."

"Oh, it seems that this matter is not as simple as I imagined..." Tang Jianyu raised his eyebrows, looked at Mingyue, and then looked at Li Shishi. "Tell me, Nangong Wuji can't bear to part with this Mingyue girl."

Li Shishi thought about it and spoke slowly, "Originally, Lord Wuji also hoped that Miss Mingyue would visit him. If the Eleventh Young Master had to invite Miss Mingyue to Tangjiabao, then under the current circumstances, Lord Wuji would not force him. However, Master Qingfeng, Master Wuji, must invite him."

"Oh?" Tang Jianyu showed a true surprise for the first time, and then smiled like a self-deprecatingly. "It seems that the news about my Tangjiabao is not good enough. Does that Taoist Master Qingfeng have such weight? He is more important than this Mingyue girl..."

"Where did you trick Taoist Xia?" Mingyue glared at Li Shishi and Nangong Tong.

Li Shishi ignored Mingyue and said to Tang Jianyu: "This can also be regarded as one of Lord Wuji's concessions. Although Master Qingfeng must be with us, the Tang family wants to invite Miss Mingyue, so please don't want to. But now it seems that Miss Mingyue probably won't go. If necessary... we can also help."

Mingyue's slender willow-leaf eyebrows were almost twisted together. Just as she was shaking in place, as if she was about to go to Li Shishi, her whole body suddenly stopped shaking and turned to look at Tang Jianyu, with a look of astonishment and alertness on her face.

"This is not right. You are not helping me, you are just helping yourself. But forget it, it seems that you can't invite Miss Mingyue with just words. Today's opportunity is rare, it's a pity to miss it..." Tang Jianyu still smiled on his face, but the kindness in it was gone. He glanced at Nangong Tong's seemingly trembling back, and scolded and ridiculed this boy who didn't know the depth, which made him feel a little relaxed, so he said jokingly: "Young Master Nangong, now you can see it. This is the world of the world."

Not far away, a corner of a wall that seemed to have been forgotten by everyone. Luo Yuanyun slowly lay on the ground and quietly crawled in one direction. During the conversation just now, the situation didn't seem so dangerous, so he pulled his hand off the wall and bandaged it. In fact, he was in his position - whether it was the actual position in the hall or the position in the minds of everyone. No one would care if he slipped away quietly, but he was not like that, because the fairy in his mind was still there, and now he seemed to be in a huge crisis.

###

When Xiao Xia found that Xiningzi was not in good condition, it was already too late. Baima slowly poured out of his half-open mouth and his eyes began to dissipate.

It’s not that he resolutely took poison when he saw that the situation was wrong. People who liked to rush around and search for thighs everywhere would be very active. But they didn’t have any determination or courage, let alone to die generously. Xiao Xia tied his pulse and found no signs of poisoning. Looking at Xiningzi’s eyes that began to collapse, he knew that this fellow disciple was probably mentally broken, either crazy or stupid.

The use of the top-grade talisman by using the Blood Sacrifice secret method has caused great damage to the soul and mind, but Xiningzi has no physical damage. However, his mind has been overdrawn long ago. If he calmed down and cultivated calmly, he would still have to force himself to fight wits and courage with others. Finally, he found that his plan failed, and his mind that had been tense to the limit could no longer withstand it, and he became crazy and stupid.

Xiao Xia could only sigh and stood up straight, let Xiningzi lie there alone, staring at the roof and spitting white foam. In fact, this might be the best ending for Xiningzi. Judging from what he did today, there was only one person who was cleaned up when he was sent back to Maoshan, and the Shadow Guard would never let anyone leak their secrets. There was also the existence of a loser who might disclose more secrets.

As for the question he wanted to ask, it seems that he will not get the answer for the time being.

Xiao Xia took out the Tang Sect antidote that Tang Qingxiao gave him and gave it to Old Man Zhang. Fortunately, the needle on Xiningzi was indeed just anesthetic, not a poison that killed human life. Senior Zhang's cultivation was indeed advanced enough, but unfortunately he had almost no experience in the martial arts world. Xiningzi boldly attacked after seeing this. If it were other Taoist innate masters, he would not even need to take action, but if he had such a sneaky thought in his heart, he would not be able to hide it.

The antidote's medicinal power will take some time to take effect, and now I can only wait here. Xiao Xia went to the door of the canteen and looked out carefully. There was still no movement outside. It was almost time for dinner, but no one was walking around nearby. It was obviously arranged before. Although this seemed to be a good opportunity to escape, Xiao Xia thought about it and turned around and continued to wait for Old Man Zhang to wake up.

Although Old Man Zhang has little experience, his cultivation is real. If there are any ambush or variables outside, it will probably be solved by him. The most important thing is that other Taoist priests lying on the ground have been hit by Xiningzi's soul-catching curse and will be unconscious for at least one or two days. The Shangqing soul-catching curse is a top-grade magic. Even if Xiao Xia has read the Taoist book given by He Jinzhi, he knows what's going on, but his cultivation is far from enough to resolve the curse. Only when Old Man Zhang wakes up can he have a solution.

"It turns out that it is because of me that I have implicated all fellow Taoists. I am really embarrassed to apologize to you here." Xiao Xia bowed to Taoist Feilong and Taoist Sanshan.

"Where are, don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it..."

"If it weren't for you, maybe I'd been plotted against by the bastard of the Tang Sect long ago. Everyone is traveling around the world and making a living, so why should I be too polite?"

Taoist Sanshan was timid, with a look of shame and panic. He didn't know whether he was afraid that the matter involving the Shadow Guard would cause trouble or that he was ashamed of his swaying just now. Taoist Feilong laughed unintentionally, still generous and generous, not taking this matter to heart.

After looking at the expression of Taoist Sanshan, Xiaoxia did not forget to comfort him and said, "Fellow Daoist Sanshan does not need to blame himself. You may not have experienced these scenes of hurting people behind the intrigue. It is normal for you to not know how to deal with them. As for the Shadow Guard, you don't have to worry too much. As long as you remember not to talk to others after today, just remember not to talk to others. Fellow Daoist Feilong and I will not talk to others casually. This person is just a marginal character running errands for Shadow Guard, and the Shadow Guard will not pursue it even if you think about it."

After hearing Xiao Xia's words, Taoist Sanshan's face became much better.

"By the way, I dare to ask where the Master of the Feilong Daoist? It was thanks to the Master of the Feilong Daoist who could survive the soul-catching curse light. If it weren't for the scene of the Feilong Daoist, we would have been really plotted against by my fellow disciples today. I don't care, but I just implicated all the fellow Taoists and Senior Zhang, which would make people feel guilty for the rest of their lives." Xiao Xia did not hide or was polite, and directly asked the Master of the Feilong Daoist. He could hold on to the top of the Shangqing Taoist Dharma and not faint. That was definitely not something that ordinary talisman Taoist priests could do, at least they had to use the authentic practice method of Xuanmen to temper their souls for more than ten years.

Taoist Feilong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I didn't want to mention it, but if I didn't say it or make up a random origin, I'm afraid you're too worried. In fact, I'm not really a secret matter like you, and I'm really a wild Taoist priest who can't do a talisman. I'm a second-generation disciple of Chunyang Temple in Donghua Mountain, the Five Mountains Alliance. I came here for the gold and silver rewards for Shenji Hall. It's a pity that my Chunyang Temple's attainment in the Five Elements Talisman is not very good. It's up to fellow Qingfeng to complete the talisman. Unexpectedly, I met the Tang Sect's people to silence him. Even Zhang Yuhong's brother had also scrambled in, and there was Shadow Guard... His grandmother's land. This pool of water was so chaotic. It was so dangerous. I knew that Dao Ye wouldn't have come here if he had died."

"Five Mountain Alliance?" Xiao Xia was stunned. Of course, he was familiar with this name, not to mention the relationship between Taoist Shi and him. At the foot of the Tianhuo Mountain, he had a lot of dealing with other disciples in the Five Mountain Alliance, and he knew a lot of people. Unexpectedly, he could meet one here. It seemed that Taoist Feilong did not follow Taoist Shi to Tianhuo Mountain that day.

"Otherwise, where else can it be?" Taoist Feilong sighed and replied unhappily. "Or what if there is any serious Taoist priest who really came to this Shenjitang for the dozens of hundred taels of gold to listen to the scolding of those craftsmen? If you can bear the bird's energy, aren't you afraid of embarrassing your own mountain gate? Only our Five Mountains Alliance is now a broken jar. If you are embarrassed, can you be embarrassed about Tianhuoshan?"

Not only Xiao Xia suddenly realized it, but even the Taoist Sanshan next to him couldn't help but look at it strangely. This is right. If the Demon-Destroying Demons and Demons Order also had a list of shameful shame in the world. The Five Mountains Alliance would definitely dominate the top of the list. The leader of the alliance, Taoist Shi, came to Tianhuo Mountain with a large number of second and third-rate gangs in the Jianghu Lake, and wanted to plot against the Zhuque Fire, but he didn't even see the shadow of Zhuque Fire. He was killed by the Xidi people and the White Tiger Army. Even Taoist Shi, who has always been famous and relied on a pair of flying swords, was lost in his whereabouts and life and death. This matter has probably become the biggest laughing stock in the Jianghu Lake and overestimating one's ability in recent years. No wonder Taoist Feilong is unwilling to say it.

"... Now our Five Mountains Alliance is dead in name only. Nearly half of the elite leaders of the alliance leader have brought Tianhuo Mountain to the hands of those Xidi barbarians. It is very difficult to protect yourself now. All other small fish and shrimps are easy to deal with, but Longhu Mountain sent someone to take over the Five Mountains Alliance, making the Five Mountains a mess. I was too lazy to deal with the stinky faces of those disciples who claimed to be great sects, so I simply went down the mountain to wander around. The magic talisman was pinned in the hands of those people in Longhu Mountain, and I couldn't get the monthly salary. When I came to Jingzhou, I met Shenjitang offering a reward, so I wanted to come in and try my luck..."

Taoist Feilong sighed when he spoke. Before the Five Mountains Alliance was considered a force. Now, the middle Taoist priests of Luotuode have to learn from the wild Taoist priests to make a living, which is indeed embarrassing. Xiao Xia couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard it. He remembered that Taoist Shi in Shangguan Wenzhong's cellar, who was tortured to death, and that the end of a generation of masters ended up like this, which is really embarrassing.

The Taoist Sanshan listened and suddenly asked, "...Why did Longhu Mountain want to take over the Five Mountains Alliance? The Tianshi Sect is the authentic Taoist sect in the world, so there is no need to do such a despicable thing..."

"How do I know what those people are thinking? What's wrong with the Taoist sect? Don't you have to eat, don't you have to shit, and don't do bad things?" Taoist Feilong spat, and then said in disappointment: "But there is nothing to complain about in terms of theory. The Taoist temple of our Five Mountains is originally under their name of Longhu Mountain. We have received a lot of silver from them over the years, and have not given them any effort. At this time, there is nothing to say about them to send people to take over. At least it is better than falling into the hands of other villains. But those people rummaged through boxes and cabinets, openly and secretly investigating, making the Five Mountains messy, as if they were looking for something important. Some people said it was for our League leader's pair of flying swords, but the flying sword was always carried by the League leader. Now the League leader is missing and life or death is unknown, but these people come to the Five Mountains to find something bad."

Taoist Feilong complained casually. Xiao Xia listened absent-mindedly, while walking to the door to notice the movement outside, suddenly a light flashed through his thoughts. He looked down at the faint sword-like mark on his hand, and a layer of cold sweat emerged from his vest without knowing it.
