Chapter 590: The Disappeared People
(Sorry, three Ping Yongjia were written into Yuanqu, which almost made him disappear. It has been changed at this time, 8:20.)
...
...
Ping Yongjia did not stay in Jingyuan for too long.
He came out of Qingshan in the name of participating in the Meihui, so the Meihui always has to participate, and isn't Master's home in Chaoge City? Thinking about these things, he left the thick fog and returned to Yunji Town. Under the shocked and envious eyes of those practitioners, he found an inconspicuous business house.
When he was at Shenmo Peak, Gu Qing explained many things to Yuan Qu and Ping Yongjia, such as the situation in the practice world, the enemies and friends of Shenmo Peak, and of course some important information that he thinks should be remembered, such as this firm belongs to the Gu family, and there are things that can be told to them.
"I'm Ping Yongjia." He looked at the business owner and said, "I wonder if you've heard of me?"
Yuan Qu and him may not be able to remember the things that Gu Qing explained, but everyone in the Gu family from top to bottom will definitely memorize the names, appearances, and habits of everyone in Shenmo Peak by heart. The owner of the business firm saluted very respectfully, and said, "Please tell me, Master Immortal."
Ping Yongjia said: "Do you know where my senior brother went?"
What happened at the Qingshan Sword Trial Conference has not been spread in the practice world, but it cannot be hidden from the members of the Gu family. The owner of the firm knew that the immortal master had been in seclusion in Qingshan for many years, and he didn't know what happened afterwards. He said, "We haven't received any news, but we haven't ordered hot pot in Qianjingyuan for about twenty days."
Ping Yongjia thought to himself that it was only 20 days? After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm going to Chaoge City."
The owner of the firm was startled, thinking that you should fly... Suddenly he thought of Jing Jiu, and he came to his senses. It seems that both master and apprentice have the same quirk.
He brought Ping Yongjia to the yard behind the firm, pointed to the carriage that had not been used for many years but was still as brand new as yesterday, and respectfully said: "This is the favorite carriage of the real head."
...
...
Ping Yongjia leaned on the couch, looked at the scenery in the skylight, and ate the freshest seasonal fruits, feeling that Master really enjoyed it.
The clouds in the skylight suddenly became darker.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and found that it was the shadow of a huge thing, and asked, "Is there something ahead?"
The driver replied respectfully, "Chaoge City is ahead."
During the recent period, the security of Chaoge City was very strict, the flying chariot had never landed in the sky, and all convoys entering and leaving the city gate were subjected to extremely strict searches.
The Gu family's carriage was not subject to any interrogation, and it easily entered Chaoge City after crossing the long queue. It's not that the Gu family's power is so powerful, but that the Gu family has made arrangements in advance, informed the relevant parties in Chaoge City, and told the other party who was sitting in the car.
An ordinary disciple of the third generation of Qingshan certainly doesn't have such a big face, but if that person is the closed disciple of Master Jingyang, it's a different matter.
The carriage entered Chaoge City and continued westward without stopping, until it finally came to a group of mountains.
This stretch of mountains is endless, but it is still within the scope of Chaoge City, which shows how big Chaoge City is.
Ping Yongjia got off the carriage, nodded to the coachman, and walked towards the mountain along the bluestone-paved mountain road.
This group of mountains, like Qingshan Mountain and Yunmeng Mountain, is shrouded in mist that lingers all year round, and ordinary people can't see their faces at all.
Ping Yongjia didn't go far, but was stopped by the officials of Qingtian Division, and then brought to the house behind the mountain.
The leader of the Qingshan Sect to participate in the Meihui this year was Fu Wang, the master of Yunxing Peak. He was very surprised when he saw Ping Yongjia, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Ping Yongjia said inexplicably: "Of course it is to participate in the Meihui."
Fu Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "What qualifications do you have to participate in the Meihui?"
Ping Yongjia said: "Because I beat Senior Brother Jian Ruyun, I won, I won."
The last two wins were not the echoes of Qun Shan, but his own additions.
Fu Wang's face became extremely ugly, thinking about the decision before leaving Qingshan, he forcibly suppressed his anger, and waved him to rest.
...
...
This year's Meihui is no different from previous years, it is still the five items of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The performance of the Green Mountain Sect was similar to that of previous years. They didn't sign up for the first four items, and they were just spectators.
The towering stone platform is full of practitioners of various sects, and the blooming plum blossoms adorn the scenery like stars.
The sound of the piano was very melodious, and the calligraphy and paintings seemed beautiful, but they could not attract Ping Yongjia's attention. It was not until more than ten days later, when practitioners from various sects gathered on Qipan Mountain and began to prepare for a chess game, that he finally saw the person he was looking for.
Jing Zongque Niang has not participated in the Meihui chess game for a long time, and this year is no exception, but she was invited by the court in the name of a referee.
In the early morning of this day, she walked casually in the mountains, watching the layout of those rain pavilions and chessboards by the stream, to ensure the fairness of both sides.
Looking at those familiar scenes, she naturally remembered the scene when she participated in the Meihui for the first time, and remembered the shocking battle between her husband and Young Master Tong Yan, and she couldn't help showing a smile.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a voice from the woods in front of her: "This way! This way!"
She turned around and saw a strange young man standing behind a big tree, she couldn't help being slightly startled.
The young man jumped out from behind the tree, waved his hands and said, "Senior Sister, I am Ping Yongjia."
Que Niang remembered the name and senior sister's address, and said with a slightly different expression, "Why are you here?"
Ping Yongjia said: "Master and the others are gone, I came to Chaoge City to look for them."
Que Niang was a little surprised, and said, "Sir, aren't they in the Jing Garden outside Yunji Town?"
Ping Yongjia said: "There is no one in Jing Yuan now."
Hearing this, Que Niang couldn't help becoming nervous, she took Ping Yongjia down Qipan Mountain without caring about the chess game.
In Chaoge City, they went to Jing's house and then to Zhao Yuan, but they found nothing and did not have any clues.
Que Niang became more and more nervous, but she didn't dare to tell the teacher in Zongli, after all, Jing Jiu's identity is too special, if this matter gets out, who knows what kind of disturbance it will cause.
"The Taoist battle is about to begin. You go to Baicheng first, take care to protect yourself, and come back safely."
She patted Ping Yongjia's head and said, "It's just the two of us now, and I will investigate the matter here, so don't worry too much."
Ping Yongjia was moved and said: "Senior sister, I will definitely not embarrass you."
...
...
The young practitioners who participated in the Meihui Dao Battle went to Baicheng to repeat what their predecessors had done in that icy and snowy land. They may encounter dangers, may have new creations, and may realize the ugliness and kindness of human nature, but first they need to understand the two words of life and death.
Under the rain corridor of Xishan Xianju, dozens of paintings were displayed again. The plum branches in the paintings were bare, waiting to be painted with bright red blood plums.
No one expected that this Meihui Taoist battle would end so quickly, even faster than Jing Jiu's that year.
Just three days after the Taoist war started, there was a painting where the plum branches were full of flowers.
The dense red plum blossoms almost occupy the entire screen. Compared with Jing Jiu's back then, the number of flowers is less, but it is already the second most plum blossoms in the history of the club, and it will definitely win the first place in this Taoist competition.
This painting of blood plums is naturally Ping Yongjia's.
A few more days later, greeted by countless shocked eyes, Ping Yongjia returned to Xishan Xianju in Chaoge City.
Until this time, his true identity was not known to everyone.
Thinking that he was Jing Jiu's closed disciple, those shocks became natural.
That night, Ping Yongjia and Que Niang met on Qipan Mountain.
Listening to the footsteps behind her, Que Niang withdrew her gaze from Chaoge City, turned to look at him, and shook her head apologetically.
Ping Yongjia was puzzled and said: "Why did they leave Jingyuan? Was there any threat? But is there any safer place in the world than Qingshan?"
Que Niang comforted him and said, "It's also possible that we're thinking too much, acting like a casual fairy like Mr., maybe it's just an occasional rise, and we're taking everyone out for a stroll."
Ping Yongjia shook his head and said: "Master is not casual, but lazy. If there is nothing wrong, he will definitely not want to go out."
Que Niang said: "If something really happens, how can we find Mr.? You should go back to Qingshan and wait, maybe Mr. will come back tomorrow."
Ping Yongjia thought that this was the only way to go, and nodded.
Que Niang said: "Your Majesty the God Emperor has taken your plum painting to the palace. Tomorrow are you going to the palace to face the saint?"
Ping Yongjia heard from Senior Brother Gu Qing that Master's plum paintings from that year are still treasured in the palace, and of course she is also very happy that her own plum paintings were collected by the God Emperor, and said: "I will sincerely thank Your Majesty."
He still heard from Senior Brother Gu Qing that the relationship between His Majesty the Divine Emperor and Master is very good, so good that he can completely trust him, he is his own person, just like Zen Zi.
Seeing his joyful expression, Que Niang reminded, "You'd better be careful when you enter the palace, Chaoge City has been a bit uneasy recently."
The word "Taiping" is a taboo for all Qingshan disciples.
Especially now that Ping Yongjia knew that her master was the real Jingyang, she was extremely sensitive, and said, "Don't worry, senior sister."
After the two broke up, Que Niang did not go back to the Immortal Residence of Mirror Sect, but went directly down the mountain to Chaoge City. She asked Ping Yong Jiamei to return to Qingshan after the meeting, because she was worried about his safety, but she wanted to continue to investigate, if she didn't find out what happened to Mr., how could she feel at ease?
She was going to visit the well house again, but when she walked to a place not far from Taichang Temple, she saw a short and fat figure, and then disappeared into a golden light.
