Chapter 1412 Xiahou Zhaode
Leaving some things and taking some away, Zhou Shu quickly left Penglai Island.
When we left, Penglai Island was already close to the West Sea, Bailong was not on the island, and monks from Xihezhou could be seen coming to the island from time to time.
Their dresses are different, but they are similar in that they all bear the mark of Kunlun Mountain on their sleeves, collars or other places, indicating that they are all monks belonging to Kunlun. In fact, in the huge West Hezhou, except for Zen and a few A few outside, other forces are all attached to Kunlun, not to mention the Zongmen, many aristocratic families are also included, and most of the Zen sects have no obvious signs.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the entire West Hezhou belongs to Kunlun.
Zhou Shu took a few glances, then left straight away. He would go to Xihezhou sooner or later, but not now.
After a few days.
On the first day of falling, as far as the eye can see, there is a fertile plain.
About thousands of miles away, there are green fields all over the place, which is quite different from the vast snowfield. In the plain, there is a small mountain village.
The cows and sheep humming outside the village, and the smoke from the cooking inside the village, showing infinite vitality and a peaceful atmosphere.
This kind of Zhuangzi seems to be seen everywhere, and it cannot be more ordinary, but one place here is by no means ordinary.
Before landing, several people flew out from the village and came to meet Zhou Shu.
The leader is an octogenarian old man with white hair and a childlike face, and his eyes are very radiant. Beside him, there is Xia Houying, who Zhou Shu has seen for a long time. When he glanced at Zhou Shu, he was surprised and shocked, and there was another person, Ying Falcon. The same eyes circled around Zhou Shu, slightly vigilant, but soon changed to joy.
The old man cupped his hands, his expression solemn, "Your Excellency, are you fellow Taoist Zhou Shu from the Heyin Sect?"
Zhou Shu raised his hand to return the salute, and said with a smile, "Exactly, I've heard about the name of Lord Xiahou Zhaode for a long time, and it's my honor to meet you today."
"Oh! My little friend is too modest, how can this old man be worthy of the word "senior."
Xiahou Zhaode quickly shook his head, walked over with big strides, stretched out his arms to hold Zhou Shu, and said excitedly, "I heard the baby say how great you are before, but I didn't take it seriously. When I saw you today, I knew what the baby said was wrong, my little one." You are not only amazing, you are simply the number one talent in the world of cultivating immortals!"
Zhou Shu smiled slightly, "Senior has said it before, and I am ashamed to take it."
He was not at all surprised by Patriarch Xiahou's attitude.
In just one year, it was completely unheard of to go from the first level to the second level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, even in ancient times, it was extremely rare, and the Xiahou family had intended to win over Zhou Shu, but they still had some concerns, but seeing Zhou Shuxiu at this time , that worry is completely gone.
The three of them probably had a lot of communication before they confirmed their attitude.
"Please come with the old man, a thin banquet has already been prepared at home, just waiting for the little friend to come."
Xiahou Zhaode held Zhou Shu's arm, as if he didn't want to let go, Zhou Shu didn't mind, and nodded with a smile, "But it's disrespectful, so I ask Mr. Zhaode to lead the way."
A blue long rainbow suddenly emerged from Xiahou Zhaode's feet and hung down to the middle of the villa.
Zhou Shu observed it carefully and was slightly startled.
That Changhong is condensed from the sword intent, and its spirit is as natural as the Heaven and Earth Spirit Bridge, absorbing all the original energy and vitality around it. , I'm afraid it's already the pinnacle of Yi Nian Tian Di.
After walking a few steps and looking down, the villa has completely changed its appearance.
Inside and outside the villa, people are dressed in red and colorful, drums and music are loud in the sky, the bustle and bustle seem like New Year's Eve, such a change in just a few breaths is also unexpected.
Walking down Changhong, it’s right in the middle of the hall, the aroma of the Dragon’s Birthday is coming, and the smoky vitality fills the hall, dozens of maids are lined up, and a table of spiritual food feast is in front of you. , most of them were seventh-level spiritual food, and even Zhou Shu had never seen a few, and the seats at the table were almost full, and many guests stood up together and greeted each other with expressions of respect.
Zhou Shu returned the salute one by one, then turned to look at Xiahou Zhaode, "Mr. Zhaode is so polite."
This was the first time he had encountered such a courteous reception. The sincerity of the Xiahou family was obvious. What was even more rare was that such an arrangement was made in a very short period of time. Obviously, it had been prepared long ago.
Xiahou Zhaode had a kind face, "Hehe, my friend is a guest from afar. As the master, this is my duty. Please take a seat."
Xia Houying also smiled and said, "What a big deal Zhou Daoyou came to us, and what is it if we do something small?"
"That would be disrespectful."
Zhou Shu bowed his hands in salute and carried him into the seat.
After the banquet started, there was the sound of toasting and mingling, accompanied by Majestic Lingle, Zhou Shu enjoyed the luxury of the ancient family once in a while, but the Xiahou family didn't mention the win-win, but just did their best to let Zhou Shu have nothing to do. A little uncomfortable.
After the banquet, Xiahou Zhaode retreated to the left and right, leaving only Xiahouying and another person Xiahouxuan present.
Xiahou Zhaode looked at Zhou Shu and said with a smile, "Little friend, you are here for the Qingzhi sword, right?"
When it came to the topic, Zhou Shu didn't say much, just nodded, "That's right, I came here for the sword."
Xiahou Zhaode nodded slightly, and said slowly, "After the baby accidentally saw the little friend crossing the catastrophe, he said that this sword is only suitable for the little friend, but today the little friend came, the old man should immediately give the green sword to the little friend , can also be regarded as a fulfillment of a good relationship, but..."
Zhou Shu smiled faintly, raised his hands and said, "Mr. Zhaode has any request, please feel free to say it. I know that you will not be rewarded for meritorious service. As long as it is reasonable, there is no reason not to refuse it."
"Little friend misunderstood."
Xiahou Zhaode shook his head quickly, "A gift is a gift, how can there be a request?"
Xia Houying followed, "Our Xiahou family only wants to form a good relationship with fellow daoists. Although the Qingzhi sword is good, it is nothing compared to fellow daoists. There will definitely be no additional conditions. It's just...to tell the truth." , Something happened to the Biluoshan Jiange. Several swords in the Jiange disappeared, including the Qingzhi Sword, but please rest assured, fellow daoists, we will be able to find out the reason and retrieve the Qingzhi Sword and other flying swords Come, send it to fellow daoists."
"Missing?"
Looking at Zhou Shu's expression, it didn't seem like a fake, but he was quite puzzled. With the prestige and precautions of the Xiahou family, it was a bit strange to throw something, and it was the flying sword in the sword pavilion.
"Let the little friend laugh."
Xiahou Zhaode stroked his beard and smiled, slightly embarrassed, "This old man can't say it, but it is true. After learning that the little friend is coming, the old man immediately went to the Jiange, intending to prepare the Qingzhi sword and wait for the little friend to hand it over." Yes, but who would have known that after opening the Jiange, the swords could not be found, not only the green swords, but the other three flying swords also disappeared, this is really... Sigh."
Xia Houying said unconsciously, "Yeah, it's really strange. The sword array outside the Jiange Pavilion is in good condition, without any damage, and the only one who holds the Jiange array talisman is the patriarch, Lord Zhaode. How did others get in and take the sword away?" Woolen cloth?"
Zhou Shu seemed to be thinking, "Mr. Zhaode, are those three swords also top-grade flying swords?"
"good."
Xiahou Zhaode nodded slightly, and soon he would feel sorry, "You mean, they gave birth to sword spirits and left by themselves? No, that's even more impossible."
