The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 349 Who Are You After Winter?

That night, Duke Lu sent Jing Jiu and Gu Qing into the palace.

Concubine Hu Gui knew the news in advance, she washed Jing Yao clean without using any perfume or powder, changed into plain clothes, and waited in the hall.

When Zhao Layue went to Nanhe Prefecture, Baoshuju's owner took care of himself in the same way. I have to say that the world's impression of Master Qingshan is always so rigid...and correct.

He was obviously more satisfied with today's little prince Jing Jiu than last time, without saying a few words, he was taken by the nanny to sleep.

The little prince Jingyao was reminded by his mother for a long time, so he was inevitably a little nervous. When he said his farewell at the end, he trembled a little when he said the word master, and he looked extremely cute.

Jing Jiu glanced at Gu Qing.

Lu Qing said: "It's not pretending, the prince is much smarter than before."

Only those who are really smart will not pretend to be smart.

Concubine Hu Gui is really not smart, she was startled to understand what Jing Jiu and Gu Qing were talking about, and she gave Gu Qing a grateful look.

Then she looked at Jing Jiu and asked nervously, "Is this to take him to Qingshan?"

She was going to be sent to Qingshan to practice penance at a young age, and as a mother, she was naturally reluctant. But she understands that now that Jing Xin is under house arrest, her son has become the target of public criticism, and everyone wants to put their hands in this temple. Rather than worrying about it here, it is better to stay away.

"I'm just here to reassure you, though I don't see the point of that."

Jing Jiu said: "Disciple Qingshan just gave him an identity, how to see his father's opinion in the future."

After saying this, he and Gu Qing left the palace, looked into the depths of the palace in the night, and bid farewell to the God Emperor.

...

...

Stars fall in the plains, Liting Qushui, the shadow of Chaoge City Wall is very clear.

Gu Qing asked: "Master, do you need a car?"

Everyone on Shenmo Peak knows that Jing Jiu has a quirk, that is, he prefers walking or riding a car compared to flying with a sword.

The Gu family specially built a car for him. It once took Liu Shisui and Xiao He to Guocheng Temple, and it is still parked in Yunji Town.

If Jing Jiu wanted to take a car, Gu Qing would ask the Gu family to fly the car over, and they only had to wait in Tongqu County outside Chaoge City in the middle of the night.

Jing Jiu said, "No need, I'm going to a place right now, you go back to Qingshan."

Lu Qing was a little surprised. It was a bit strange to leave Chaoge City overnight, but he would rather drive a sword than take a car...

Where exactly is Master going, why is he in such a hurry?

Thinking about Jing Jiu's commotion in the Demon Suppressing Prison, how could Gu Qing dare to leave and insisted on staying with him.

Naturally, Jing Jiu would not be courteous to him, mainly because he was too lazy to persuade, took the white cat out of his sleeve, handed it to his arms, and said, "You sit in the back."

After saying this, the iron sword flashed out from his body, hanging quietly in the night, reflecting the starlight.

After three years of corrosion by Bitan, the burn mark on the surface of the iron sword became smoother, but it did not become smaller, but wider, enough to accommodate several people.

Lu Qing was concerned about other issues, and looked at the iron sword in surprise.

Jing Jiu had been in the Wuzhang Realm for many years, but he still couldn't absorb the sword into his body, so he couldn't develop a sword ghost, so he left Qingshan and sneaked into the Demon-Suppressing Prison.

Now that the iron sword has become one with him, it shows that he has completely solved the problem, so wouldn't that be promising for you?

The iron sword rose through the sky, flew towards the northwest under the starlight, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Jing Jiu sat in front, and Gu Qing sat in the back with the white cat in his arms.

Even with Jing Jiu's body blocking him, the strong wind that swam from all around still caused his face to sting slightly.

You must know that his current state is already quite high, and he will be disturbed by the strong wind, which shows that the iron sword flies very high and very fast.

Lu Qing was very surprised, thinking that Uncle Mo's flying sword was just ordinary, why it looked like a fairy-level flying sword in Master's hands.

As for the strong wind, why Jing Jiu didn't notice it, Lu Qing didn't think about it at all.

He was not as thick-skinned as slandering Jing Jiu, but in his heart, Master was not an ordinary ascetic, so naturally he couldn't be judged by the standard of ordinary ascetics.

Regarding this point, besides Zhao Layue, he was the most convinced.

...

...

When the iron sword landed on the wilderness, the dusk was thick, and the setting sun shone like blood on the snowfield in the north, making that place extremely mysterious and dangerous.

It only took such a short time to come here from Chaoge City, Lu Qing was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Of course, this was also because he had been blown by the strong wind for a day, his body was already stiff, and his face was stinging.

Jing Jiu's clothes were also cut into countless holes by the strong wind, turning into cloth belts fluttering in the wind, looking like a beautiful beggar.

The snowy field under the twilight is very calm, the so-called mysterious and dangerous is just the emotional color given by people.

The Queen of the Snow Country should still be breastfeeding her baby, so she doesn't care about what humans are thinking.

The residents of Baicheng don't know these secrets, they only know that the snow country monsters haven't appeared for many years, and carnival after carnival is being held in the city.

The residents here are all believers, and the religion they believe in is a combination of Fengdao Sect and Zen Buddhism. It is a little crazy, but it is extremely sincere.

Hundreds of colorful banners dressed Baicheng like a bride. Looking from the cliff where Jing Jiu was, those colorful banners actually pointed to one place.

The small temple between the red cliffs of Baicheng.

Jing Jiu looked at Xiaomiao quietly and did not speak for a long time.

Lu Qing's body finally warmed up, and he said with a trembling voice, "Master, are you looking for someone?"

Jing Jiu hummed and said, "I heard that Dong often appears here."

Lu Qing was very surprised, he didn't expect to hear this name at all.

It's not Baizao, there is still winter?

Isn't that the disciple of Shuiyue Temple? I heard that his appearance is quite ordinary... Well, Master doesn't need to care about such things as appearance.

"Auntie once waited for Master here for more than a year, in that small temple."

Gu Qing suddenly said seriously.

Knowing what he meant, Jing Jiu reached out and patted his head, saying, "I know."

...

...

The iron sword rose through the air again.

It didn't take long for them to come to Juye City, which is 700 miles south of Baicheng.

The night was dark, but the streets were still lively, and many traveling merchants were still eating and exchanging useful information at the same time.

The most convenient place to exchange information in Chaotian Continent is not a brothel or a restaurant, but a medical clinic.

Those medical halls with crabapple flowers, gardenia flowers, and various flowers engraved on the plaques.

Looking at the unrecognizable flower on the plaque, Jing Jiu shook his head. He had dealt with the shutter roller several times, but he still didn't understand the purpose of this approach.

Lu Qing walked up the stone steps with the white cat in his arms, and knocked on the door of the medical hall.

The medical center also accepts patients in the middle of the night, but it is rare to see a combination of two people and one cat.

Moreover, these two people described them as a bit embarrassed, but they were obviously not sick. Could it be that the patient was the cat with its eyes closed?

"My dear guest, we don't know how to treat cats..."

Before the guy finished speaking, he took them back, welcomed them into the medical hall quickly, and then closed the door again.

Jing Jiu took off his hat and exposed his face.

Lu Qing stood behind the chair with the white cat in his arms.

Jing Jiu sat in the chair.

There are three cups of tea on the table.

After the hot tea in the cup had cooled completely, the doctor finally came back.

"The immortal master is in a hurry. I really didn't find anything in a day. It's the old news. Please don't blame it."

The doctor said with a wry smile, thinking that you just asked for the news in Chaoge City last night, but today you came to Juye City, no news can catch you.

Jing Jiu said, "Please tell me."

The doctor said: "No one knows the origin of the winter, she seems to be a sudden appearance."

Jing Jiu said, "When?"

The doctor took out a piece of jade from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and said: "This means that Lian Sanyue began to retreat and meditate many years ago, seeking to break through the realm of heaven..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jing Jiu said, "This is a lie. She has reached the sky many years ago."
