On the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the sky has already darkened, and a round full moon hangs in the sky. Under the cold moonlight, everything in the world seems to be so beautiful.
In the sky above Cang Yuan City, a figure floated under the moonlight. The man was wearing a blue gown, but he looked lazily and yawned. The wind was gently blowing the man's gown, and he was extremely elegant.
This person is Xiao Chunqiu, who set out from Yuluo Villa to the Su family in Cangyuan City to look for the sword.
It has been half an hour since he set off. Logically speaking, he was using the world's best Qinggong movement "Step on the Clouds and Riding the Wind", so he should have arrived long ago.
But I was in such a hurry when I came out of Yuluo Villa that I didn't have time to ask the strange old man Xiao Lingchen about the current location of the Su family. Moreover, even if I asked, I told him. After so many years, I guess it would have been long ago.
No longer there.
Therefore, Xiao Chunqiu had no choice but to use the "Qi Seeking Technique" to find the specific direction.
The art of heart-seeking is the most common mental martial art in Taoism. It is often used to find people or objects. It is used to identify the auras emanating from the first two people.
The Purple Smoke Sword is a spiritual sword, so the aura on its sword is relatively strong. Although many years have passed, Xiao Chunqiu can still clearly feel its exact position.
But just now, when he passed by the sky above, he also felt a breath similar to the purple smoke sword body below, but this breath was extremely weak.
If it weren't for his strong perception, he might have missed it.
However, he was not sure whether the aura was related to the Purple Smoke Sword he was familiar with. So he stopped and stared at this patch of sky for a long time, which wasted a lot of time.
Looking down at the dimly lit Cangyuan City from a high position, Xiao Chunqiu suddenly yawned lazily. It seemed that he had to go down and confirm it himself.
With this thought in mind, he had already taken a step forward, and when he landed again, he was already on the ground. A strong wind passed by, and the people around him couldn't help but cover their eyes, completely unaware that there was nothing happening in front of them.
One more person.
The wind stops!
So people just complain about the sudden wind, and then they act like no one is doing anything, and everyone does their own thing.
Xiao Chunqiu walked forward while scanning his surroundings, looking for that faint breath.
However, he was surprised to find that this street was extremely spacious, and it was no problem for five carriages to go parallel. People on the street were also walking in a hurry, and it was very lively. There were many stalls and vendors on both sides of the street.
Scenes like this reminded Xiao Chunqiu of his youthful temperament when he first entered Ye'an City, fighting with swords and dreams, drunkenly singing, and feeling high-spirited and high-spirited as a young man.
That's how it feels now.
But after a while he couldn't recall any memories. After all, this place still lacked some charm compared to when he was a boy.
Soon, his eyes fell on a beautiful woman in her twenties wearing a white gown.
At this time, the woman was talking to the man in black gown in front of her.
"Han Xuan, why do you have to leave?" The woman held her hands in front of her chest.
Han Xuan was packing things at the side and said: "Qianqian, haven't I already told you that something urgent happened and I have to go back."
"What's the matter with you? They all left one by one, and you want to leave too. I'm the only weak woman left. Are you embarrassed?" Su Qianqian kicked Han Xuan.
"Weak woman?" Han Xuan couldn't help laughing, turned his head and looked Su Qianqian up and down, shook his head: "Qianqian, you are really good at joking, I didn't see that you are a weak woman..."
Indeed, even if some handsome young man came and saw Su Qianqian looking like this, he would definitely call her careless, arrogant and unreasonable crazy girl.
"Han Xuan, what do you mean?" Su Qianqian was immediately unhappy when she heard this. She drew her sword and was about to step forward.
Seeing this, Han Xuan hurriedly packed up his last things and ran away.
While running, he did not forget to wave to Su Qianqian: "Qianqian, don't stay too late and go back home early."
Su Qianqian still wanted to chase him, but Han Xuan ran faster than a rabbit. After a while, he ran into the crowd and disappeared.
Su Qianqian had no choice but to give up.
They were originally a group of four, and the other few met each other through Han Xuan's introduction. They thought they would come here to have fun and participate in the Hundred Flowers Festival to win the flower head or something. But then one after another
She said she had to leave first because of something urgent. Even her best friend, Han Xuan, had just run away. Now she was the only one left, Su Qianqian, and she didn’t even want to attend the Hundred Flowers Party.
Got that mood.
The more Su Qianqian thought about it, the less interesting it became, so she might as well go home. But just before she took a few steps, a slender hand with five fingers suddenly blocked her way.
Su Qianqian looked up and saw a handsome young man wearing a blue gown, but he looked lazy. He just stretched out a hand to stop her.
It was Xiao Chunqiu.
Su Qianqian came back to her senses and asked in confusion: "This young master, who are you? Why are you stopping me?"
Xiao Chunqiu did not answer, but looked at the woman's right hand thoughtfully, and then nodded: "That's right!"
Although the aura in the woman's hand was extremely weak, Xiao Chunqiu was very sure that it was the Purple Smoke Sword that had the aura.
"That's right!" Su Qianqian was a little confused, but she also figured out that the young man in front of her was definitely not here to strike up a conversation, "I'm asking you, who are you and why did you stop me?"
Xiao Chunqiu raised his head: "Young lady should have taken a sword named Ziyan, right?"
"Purple Smoke Sword?" Su Qianqian had a question on her face.
"Yes." Xiao Chunqiu put his hands into his sleeves, "I wonder if my lady can tell me where the Purple Smoke Sword is now?"
Su Qianqian couldn't help but smile after hearing this, "Young master, are you here to laugh? Or lie to me some silver coins. I don't know what kind of sword you are talking about, let alone where it is. You'd better ask someone else.
Well, it’s inexplicable.”
After saying that, he walked around Xiao Chunqiu and walked forward.
Xiao Chunqiu looked at the woman's leaving figure and frowned slightly.
Originally, he thought that if he found a wisp of the Purple Smoke Sword's breath, it would be easier, and he wouldn't have to use the "Qi Seeking Technique" to find it.
First, he found it troublesome, and second, he felt tired.
But this woman clearly said that she had never taken it, and she didn’t know where it was. It seemed that she had only taken it once by chance. She couldn’t remember her name, so no wonder her breath was so weak.
After thinking about this, Xiao Chunqiu couldn't help but complain, "Why do we always encounter such nonsense!"
After saying that, he tapped the ground with his toes, stepped on the clouds and rode on the wind, and rode away in the wind.
However, in this scene, Xiao Chunqiu disappeared out of thin air in the eyes of the people around him, which immediately caused a lot of noise.
"Hey~ Xi'er Xi'er, you...did you just see it?"
"What did you see?"
"The person who was standing just now...disappeared. Could it be that we encountered a ghost?"
"What kind of ghost are you? I told you not to read those ghost stories. Where did the ghost come from?"
"No, really, I really saw it."
"Yes! I think I saw it too."
"Did you see that?"
"Is it an immortal descending to earth?"
…
One sentence after another kept ringing out, and in just a moment, a person disappeared before their eyes.
