Chapter 25
Chapter 25
When I came out of Anlu Peak, the sky was full of clouds and clouds, which were as gorgeous as fire.
A gust of wind blows.
Jiang Li stretched out his hand to brush the broken hair on his forehead, and a towering mountain peak came into view in front of him.
Wangshu Peak is the main peak of Taiwangzong, surrounded by other peaks like stars arching the moon, so no matter where you stand, you can see the snow peak piercing the sky.
Ye Jingxian naturally saw it too.
When he saw Wang Shufeng in the past, he only had reverence and admiration in his heart, but for some reason, now he has mixed feelings.
After watching for a while, he withdrew his gaze and said, "A Li, I'll take you to my mansion..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a figure falling from mid-air.
The person who came had a beautiful beard and was of immortal demeanor. It was none other than Elder Mo who was in charge before.
Ye Jingxian took a step forward, stood in front of Jiang Li, and said respectfully, "Elder Mo."
As the chief disciple of Taiwangzong, these elders are always kind and kind to him on weekdays, and they would smile and nod whenever they met.
But today, everything seems to be different.
Elder Mo didn't even look at him, and went straight to Jiang Li: "Follow me."
Jiang Li was at a loss, raised his watery pupils, and looked at Ye Jingxian for help.
Ye Jingxian became anxious, and he bit his voice hard: "Elder Mo, where are you taking Ah Li?"
Elder Mo said impatiently, "Of course it's Wangshu Peak."
Ye Jingxian was taken aback for a moment, and said bravely, "Why are you so eager? Even if you are an apprentice, you have to ask Ah Li for his opinion first."
Elder Mo looked at Jiang Li: "What do you think?"
Jiang Li bit his lower lip lightly, hesitating.
Under Ye Jingxian's expectant gaze, he said slowly, "I would like to go."
Ye Jingxian's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say a word for a long while.
If Jiang Li really worshiped under Xianjun Wang Shu, wouldn't he become his master uncle?
In this way, the seniority will be completely messed up.
According to the clear rules and regulations of Taiwangzong, there is absolutely no possibility between him and Jiang Li.
Ye Jingxian stretched out his hand subconsciously, wanting to stop all this.
But he heard Jiang Li whisper softly: "Xianjun is a good person, you don't have to worry too much."
Ye Jingxian lowered his hand little by little, and said bitterly: "Okay, if you're not used to staying here, just tell me, I can..."
What can he do?
Ye Jingxian's shoulders suddenly collapsed.
At this moment, he felt remorse clearly.
If he had never bid farewell to Jiang Li in the small town of Jiangnan, wouldn't everything after that have happened?
However, there is no medicine for regret in the world.
Looking at Jiang Liyuan's back, Ye Jingxian clenched his fists tightly, and suddenly had a secret thought.
……
Wangshu Peak is covered with frost and snow all the year round.
Before it got close, there was already a gust of cold wind.When you are in it, you can better understand what is the wind knife and frost sword, which is biting to the bone.
Elder Mo took the man to the snow field and told him, "Stand here and don't walk around."
Jiang Li nodded obediently.
Elder Mo put one hand behind his back, tapped his toes on the jagged rocks, and disappeared into the white snow on the top of the mountain lightly.
Jiang Li's pupils turned slightly, looking around.
The mountain peak is cold and lonely, except for the rustling sound of snow falling, there is no other movement.
Such dead silence, if one stays for a long time, will drive people crazy.
And Shen Jiyun stayed here alone for hundreds of years.
Jiang Li slightly parted his lips, let out a mouthful of mist, and sighed silently: "It really deserves to be ruthless."
I don't know that ordinary people can cultivate the path of ruthlessness. Only those who have a strong mind and abandon the emotions and desires can embark on this path.
But people are born in the world of mortals, how can they completely cut off their emotions and desires?
It can be seen from this that those who cultivate the path of ruthlessness are hard nuts, hard to chew and tasteless.
Even if Jiang Li was full of lies, he had to say something sincerely at this time: He really didn't want to offend the ruthless Taoist.
At first, Jiang Li didn't know, but seeing Shen Jiyun's coldness and indifference, he wanted to tease him to relieve his boredom.
After learning that he was cultivating the ruthless way, he gave up this idea.
But I never thought that by accident, I bumped into Shen Jiyun again.
But... Ruthless Dao should not be so easy to break, right?
Jiang Li suppressed his guilty conscience, thinking: If Dao heart is really shaken, and you don't care about my affairs, it is you who are ruthless and really hopeless.
As soon as he thought about it, Elder Mo's voice sounded in his ears, ordering: "Come forward."
Jiang Li looked up.
The path up the mountain was narrow and steep, with a thin layer of frost condensed on the steps, with a sharp mountain wall on one side and an abyss on the other.
If you take one wrong step, you will fall to pieces.
The mountain road is difficult.
But it seems that Elder Mo has no intention of helping.
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and tentatively stepped on it.
click-
The frost shattered with a crisp sound.
Holding the mountain wall with one hand, he walked up step by step.
On the edge of the cliff, there was a strong wind, and the white waves smashed into the sky.
The young man's figure is slender, leaving an insignificant mark among the mountains, as if it will disappear into the sky and the earth at any time.
Shen Ji sat on the top of the mountain in the cloud, meditating with his eyes closed.
It seemed that he didn't care about what happened in the unexpected world, but no one knew, his mind moved, and his consciousness was attached to a snowflake, fluttering with the wind.
……
The boy clings to the mountain wall and walks extremely slowly.
Frost and snow fell.
A thin layer of frost formed between his black hair.
Perhaps it was too cold, the tip of his nose was red from the cold, the corners of his lips were clenched, and his cheeks were bloodless.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation in the wind.
The stone on the mountain wall was too sharp, the boy stepped on it without realizing it, and a deep gash was cut on his finger.
Bright red blood gushed out, especially conspicuous on the white jade-like fingertips.
Tick.
The blood slipped from the fingertips, and before it dripped on the ground, it had already condensed into blood beads, which fell into the snow, reflecting the bloody light.
The boy gasped, obviously in extreme pain.In order to stop the bleeding, he put his fingertips in his mouth, and a smear of scarlet smeared on his lips.
Shen Jiyun's gaze paused for a moment.
wow——
A gust of wind blew past the boy's side, blowing away the floating snow on his shoulders.
A large snowflake fell with a rush, circled in a circle, and froze into crystal clear steps in front of him.
The steps are gentle, protected from wind and frost, and lead straight to the top.
It is impossible for Elder Mo not to be aware of such a big movement. He glanced in surprise, not understanding why Xianjun made a move.
Shen Jiyun's voice was calm and indifferent, without any strangeness: "It's too slow."
It was only because I walked too slowly and was impatient to wait that I offered to help.
There is no other reason.
Elder Mo seemed to believe it, and immediately said, "I'll go and welcome him in."
Shen Jiyun: "Yes."
Elder Mo hurried out.
at the same time.
Jiang Li walked down the frosty steps and came to another wider and flatter cliff.
There are no other decorations on the cliff, only stone pillars stand side by side.
There are sword marks on the stone pillars, and the sharp and compelling sword intent can be faintly felt.
The further you go in, the more faint the sword intent on the stone pillar becomes.
Like a treasured sword with its blade retracted, the front is hidden in the scabbard.The brilliance is restrained, and the fetish is self-obscuring, which is something very human can do.
This sword intent is enough to benefit sword repairers a lot.
Jiang Li was engrossed in watching, reaching out his hand to touch the sword mark on the stone pillar.
But before he touched it, he heard a light voice coming from one side: "Stop!" Elder Mo strode forward, "This is the sword intent of Wangshu Xianjun, you don't want to die!"
Jiang Li lowered his hands, seemingly flustered.
Elder Mo waved his hand: "Okay, don't touch these things, come with me."
Jiang Li lowered his head and followed behind Elder Mo.
Go through the stone pillar and go deeper.
Wangshu Xianjun is well-known outside, but he did not expect that his cave is extremely simple, without spirit stone treasures, and without decorations, it is just an empty snow cave.
Shen Jiyun was sitting cross-legged in the snow, dressed in white, which almost blended with the color of the snow.The only difference in color is the long sword stuck in front of them.
Elder Mo said respectfully: "Xianjun, the person has already been brought."
Jiang Li grabbed a little fluff on the cloak and looked at the figure in the snow uneasily.
less Yan.
Shen Jiyun slowly opened his eyes, a bit of snow was reflected in his eyes, revealing a chill.
His eyes fell on the boy.
Probably because it was too cold on Wangshu Peak, the young man lowered his head, his whole body was tightly wrapped in a cloak, making his chin even more small and fair, and a little red mole on his earlobe was soul-stirring.
No one speaks.
In the silence, Elder Mo felt very uneasy, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Xianjun, since the person has arrived, I will retreat first."
There was a voice in the wind: "Yes."
Elder Mo felt relieved and left in a hurry.
In the snow cave.
Only Jiang Li and Shen Jiyun were left.
Jiang Li tentatively took a step forward, and as soon as he landed, he shrank back: "You..." The voice echoed in the cave, he paused for a moment, then changed his words, "It's so cold here."
Shen Jiyun said lightly: "The top of the mountains is naturally like this,"
Jiang Li raised his eyelids, his eyes were round and moist, and asked cautiously, "Do you live here alone?"
Shen Jiyun nodded.
Jiang Li's lips parted slightly, as if surprised. After hesitating, he still couldn't help asking: "Aren't you lonely?"
Shen Jiyun: "Of course... no."
Across the heavy snow, Jiang Li and Shen Jiyun looked at each other, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
This is not pretending, but really feeling out of control.
He pursed his lips: "Is there anything I need to do?"
Shen Jiyun's eyes swept over indifferently.
In fact, he didn't want to accept Jiang Li as his disciple.
Although it is said that this is requested by the Supreme Elder and the suzerain, but... if this is really done, how will we get along with each other in the future?
Shen Jiyun frowned, and then slowly relaxed: "You stay here for now."
Wait for a while to talk about other things.
Jiang Li responded briskly, but he didn't know what he thought of, he looked embarrassed, and asked in a low voice, "Where do I live?"
Shen Jiyun: "..."
Shen Jiyun has no requirements for external objects, and has always used the sky as a cover, the ground as a bed, and snow as a bed, and never thought that one day someone would come to visit temporarily.
After a while, he stretched out his hand, and a little fluorescent light flew out from his sleeve.
The fluorescent light rises when it sees the wind, and when it falls to the ground, it has become a bamboo house.
Jiang Li opened the door and went in. The bamboo room was fully equipped with tables, chairs, beds and cabinets. There was also a gilt Boshan stove on the table. The smoke curled up and the fragrance was clear.
At first glance, it feels a little familiar.
Take a closer look and realize just now, isn't this the ice and snow scent that Shen Jiyun carries?
Jiang Li stretched out his hand, the smoke curled around his fingertips, and then gradually dispersed.He took off his outer robe, shook off the snow on his shoulders, looked through the window, and saw the figure in the snow.
It is warm in the bamboo house.
Once the warmth is smoked, it makes people drowsy.
Jiang Li ran all the way, and now he leaned on the small couch and fell asleep with his arms under his head.
The windows are wide open.
Scattered snowflakes floated in through the gap and landed on his cheek, turning into a puddle of water in an instant.
As soon as the wind blows, there is a slight chill.
Half asleep and half awake, Jiang Li murmured and moved his fingers, wanting to grab something.
But the side was empty, and there was nothing to keep warm.
He frowned, but he still couldn't wake up from his sleep after all.
The windows of the bamboo house are open.
With Shen Jiyun's position, he only needs to raise his eyes to see the scene inside.
For a moment.
A white shadow fell silently into the bamboo house, picked up the thin quilt at the side, and covered the young man's slender shoulders.
After finishing this, he turned around and was about to leave.
Just as soon as he turned around, he felt a force coming from the cuff.
Looking down, the boy moved his arm, just pressing down on his sleeve.
Obviously it can be torn apart with a little force, but he couldn't move because of it.
So stalemate for a while.
The boy was still sleeping soundly, his breathing was calm, and the hair on his forehead was shaking slightly.He fell asleep soundly, and there was a red mark on his cheek, which was so pitiful.
Shen Jiyun's footsteps paused, a sword light flashed across, leaving half of his sleeve behind, and then strode out.
When he was in the snow, he turned his head and waved his sleeves.
"Bang" sounded.
The windows of the bamboo house are closed, hiding all the emotions behind the windows.
……
Window closed.
Jiang Li opened his eyes in response, propped up the small table with one hand, and sat up slowly.His eyes were clear, without any sleepiness, he stared at a piece of sleeve on the corner of the table, lost in thought.
It’s over.
Could it be that Shen Jiyun's Dao heart really moved?
As soon as he cultivated the ruthless way, his heart was so unstable that the ruthless way seemed really hopeless.
No, I have to think of a way.
Jiang Li originally wanted to stay in Taiwangzong for a while, but now that the situation is not good, he still has to find a way to get out.
He was thinking in his heart, and the star stone flowed through his fingertips.
outside the window.
Night fell.
The light of the stars and the moon shines on each other, falling on the snow, like fireflies splashing in all directions.
One of the gleams fell into Shen Jiyun's hands, and the brilliance shone, and the indifference between the eyebrows and eyes receded slightly, like melting ice and snow.
……
Silent all night.
On the second day, Wang Shufeng came up with an unexpected guest.
Ye Jingxian sneaked into Wang Shufeng, wanting to find Jiang Li.It's just that people haven't seen it yet, and they are discovered first as soon as they step on the snow.
A sword light fell from mid-air, brushed against the tip of Ye Jingxian's nose, and left a long, narrow and deep mark on the ground.
Ye Jingxian took a step back from the shock of the aftermath, and barely stabilized his figure: "Master." He raised his head and said, "This disciple disturbed Master Qingxiu, and asked Master to punish him, but I am worried about Ah Li and want to Come see him."
"No goodbye."
The voice was cold and hard, obviously there was no room for change.
Ye Jingxian's heart tightened: "Master..." He racked his brains until he came up with a reason, "Ah Li is still injured, and the Master of Anlu Peak gave him some medicine yesterday."
As he said that, he took out the things in his arms to prove that there was such a thing.
Shen Jiyun glanced over lightly, neither saying yes nor bad.
Ye Jingxian tentatively took a step forward.
A cold snort exploded in the air, stopping Ye Jingxian's footsteps.
A gust of cold wind blew away the medicine bottle in his hand, went straight to Jiuxiao, and fell into Shen Jiyun's hands.
In fact, it's not a bad idea to let Ye Jingxian see Jiang Li.
It's just... thinking of the two talking and laughing, Shen Jiyun felt unhappy.
Clenching the medicine bottle in his hand, Shen Jiyun said slowly: "Go back and think about your mistakes behind closed doors." He added another time, "Not to come out for three years."
Ye Jingxian: "Huh?"
He said anxiously, "I don't know when this disciple offended Master..."
Shen Jiyun interrupted him: "Just now."
Ye Jingxian: "?"
Shen Jiyun: "It disturbed my Qingxiu."
Ye Jingxian: "???"
Aren't they all polite words?
Shen Jiyun kept explaining, and said calmly: "Go."
Before Ye Jingxian could react, there was a thrust coming towards him, pushing him directly to Wang Shufeng.
The mountain was silent again.
Shen Jiyun looked down at the medicine bottle in his hand, and entered the bamboo house quietly again.
Jiang Li was still snoozing, the curtains were shaking, and he had one hand outside the window, his figure was vague, like a beauty half covering his face, which made people even more delusional.
Shen Jiyun put down the medicine bottle in his hand.
Suddenly the wind blew, and the bed curtain was lifted.
For some reason, he paused and walked over slowly.
Look down.
Jiang Li was caught in the brocade, his skin was fairer and more delicate than silk.He didn't know anything about what happened in the bamboo house, there was no haze between his brows and eyes, his head was slightly tilted, and a red mole on his earlobe was conspicuous.
By coincidence, Shen Jiyun stretched out his hand towards the white jade-like earlobe, and just as he was about to touch it, Jiang Li seemed to have sensed it, and gave out a warning.
His fingers trembled slightly, he flicked his cuff, and before Jiang Li woke up, his figure disappeared into the bamboo house.
The frost and snow outside the window are still there.
Shen Jiyun walked in it, every step was very steady, as if it had been measured with a ruler.
This is normal.
He just wanted to see Jiang Li's injuries, other than that, he had nothing else to think about.
He confirmed the idea again.
--This is normal.
