Chapter 1689 Xuanshui Immortal Wood

Liang Yan stretched out his hands and took the wooden box very respectfully.

Although the treasure was in front of him, he was very clear-headed and knew that he should behave at this time. He immediately said with righteous indignation:

"The uncles said it nicely, but this Xuanshuixianmu is our most precious treasure in Narcissus Ridge. They have nothing to lose, so why should we give it away?"

After hearing this, Lu Qinghe sighed softly and remained silent by the river for a long time.

After a long silence, he finally spoke: "Qingshan, the elders and younger ones are in order. Please don't comment on the decisions of the uncles. Please send this thing to Grandma Tianchi, and Xiangqin will go with you." "

"But, Master"

Liang Yan and Xiangqin wanted to say something more, but were interrupted by Lu Qinghe's hand.

"Okay, I'm a little tired of being a teacher. You all can go down."

Lu Qinghe's face was bleak and he seemed unwilling to say any more.

Liang Yan thought to himself that he had done enough for the scene, and pretending to be any more would be too much, so he nodded and said respectfully: "Master, take care, my junior sister and I will leave first."

After saying that, he bowed behind Lu Qinghe and then left the cave with Xiangqin.

The two of them came down from Narcissus Ridge and returned to the mountain road. Xiangqin's chatterbox immediately started.

With an angry look on her face, she shouted: "These uncles are also old and confused. These twelve transformations are all outsiders, but they take the initiative to give away their own sect's most precious treasure to outsiders. This is not a meat bun beating a dog." , is there no return?"

"Perhaps I want to make good friends with them." Liang Yan shrugged and said, "After all, these people are the ancestors of the calamity who have survived the second disaster. Their strength is unfathomable. If you win over just one person, they will be harmful to Wuzhuang Mountain." There are many benefits to the future.”

"snort!"

Xiangqin was still angry and shouted: "Others can just pay it back. Grandma Chi was a coquettish bitch that day. She was a notorious womanizer and harmed many male cultivators! Her Cangming Mountain was a place where filth and evil spread. Earth, we, the authentic Taoist sect of Wuzhuang Mountain, one of the seven mountains and twelve cities, how can we have anything to do with such a person?"

"Perhaps these uncles have ulterior motives. After all, the decisions made above are not something we can criticize." Liang Yan said lightly.

"Have any ulterior motives? I think these uncles are old and confused!"

Xiangqin sneered and said: "Xuanshui Fairy Tree is not their thing, of course they don't feel bad about it! There is competition among the five peaks of Wuzhuang Mountain. I think these uncles just want to see our Shuixian Ridge jokes, for fear that Master will steal theirs. Limelight!”

"Junior sister, be silent! Don't say these things casually!" Liang Yan motioned to Xiangqin to shut up with his eyes.

However, Xiangqin seemed to be on fire and couldn't stop at all:

"I don't, I have to say it! Those uncles are all immortals and have devoted themselves to cultivating Taoism for a lifetime. In the end, they won't be blinded by this pickled thing like Tianchi's grandma, right? It's not impossible to say this. I heard that Tianchi Grandma's charm skills are extraordinary, maybe some of my uncles are unclean."

Xiangqin was talking endlessly, but she saw Liang Yan's expression was strange, and he kept winking at her, which made him a little confused for a moment.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you? Am I right?"

"Ahem!"

Before Liang Yan could speak, a cough suddenly came from behind him.

Xiangqin's face changed slightly, and she turned around hurriedly, only to see a Taoist priest in brilliant clothes standing behind her.

This man has eagle eyes, a high nose, long and narrow eyes, and a sharp aura all over his body. He is the owner of Jinjia Valley in Wuzhuang Mountain, Zuo Xingzhi!

Xiangqin was startled, quickly shut up and bowed:

"See Uncle Zuo!"

"See Uncle Zuo!" Liang Yan also saluted.

"snort!"

Zuo Xingzhi snorted coldly and said in a nonchalant manner: "Forgive me the courtesy. The two nephews talked loudly and scolded all of us old guys. How dare I ask my nephew to salute? Will my life span be shortened?" "

After hearing this, Liang Yan and Xiangqin felt their hearts tighten.

Insulting the teacher behind his back can be a big or small matter. If Zuo Xingzhi really pursues the investigation, reports it to the sect, and then accuses them of disrespecting the teacher, I'm afraid both of them will suffer.

As the principal culprit, Xiangqin was confined in confinement at worst and punished at worst. Liang Yan, as an accomplice, failed to stop him in time, so naturally he was not free from the involvement.

Liang Yan's identity is disguised, and he is most afraid of encountering this kind of thing. Even if it is a slight punishment, as long as he is placed in the public eye, there is a risk of exposure.

Thinking of this, Liang Yan hurriedly put on a smile, saluted Zuo Xingzhi and said: "Uncle, please don't be angry. The little junior sister is ignorant, speaks arrogantly, and bumps into uncle. I'll take care of it for her. Master, there are a lot of uncles, Don’t be acquainted with her.”

"Why don't you accompany her? What's your seniority?"

Zuo Xingzhi said coldly: "If that old guy Lu Qinghe comes, I can barely accept it, but you are only a third-generation disciple, are you qualified to apologize for others?"

"Uncle, I know that one person is responsible for his mistakes. I hope you can just punish me and not bring disaster to my senior brother." Xiangqin said pitifully.

"Hey, I can't tell you, little girl, you are still a bit generous."

Zuo Xingzhi glanced at Xiangqin, as if he was a little surprised, and his tone softened a lot: "Well, for the sake of Senior Brother Lu, I won't worry too much about the Xuanshui Immortal Tree with you. It's something we old guys share." Lu Qinghe was also present at the time of the discussion, and if he felt it was inappropriate, he would have objected at the time, so you don’t know the whole story, so don’t discuss it at will.”

"I know, uncle!"

Liang Yan and Xiangqin responded at the same time.

Zuo Xingzhi nodded slightly, looked at Liang Yan again, and suddenly smiled and said: "Xuanshui Fairy Tree is Lu Qinghe's treasure. It has been kept in Shuixian Ridge for many years. Even I have never seen it. I happened to meet it today. My nephew, you might as well show it to me, and it will also open my eyes as an uncle."

"this"

Liang Yan looked hesitant, but he cursed in his heart: "You old fox, you have been going around in circles for a long time, it turns out that this is your real purpose!"

"What? My nephew is unwilling?"

Seeing his hesitation, Zuo Xingzhi had a look of displeasure on his face.

"Uncle Master, it's not that I don't want to, but the Xuanshui Immortal Wood is too precious and is the most important treasure of our Narcissus Ridge! Master Qian warned me to carefully hand it over to Grandma Tianchi and not to pass it on to outsiders."

"In your opinion, uncle, am I an outsider?"

Zuo Xingzhi's face gradually turned gloomy: "I'm just a little curious, so I'll take a look in front of you. Can I still take away your Narcissus Ridge treasure? Are you really disrespecting me if you push back and forth like this? ? Humph, then I will report what you have done to the sect and let Junior Brother Lei discipline you!"

Lei Lifeng is a tribulation ancestor of Wuzhuang Mountain. Although he only has the ability to overcome difficulties, he is in charge of criminal law and has ruthless methods. He is one of the most feared people by the disciples of Wuzhuang Mountain.

As soon as Zuo Xingzhi said this, Liang Yan and Xiang Qin both changed their expressions.

"This old fox came here for the 'Xuanshui Immortal Wood' today!"

Liang Yan cursed secretly in his heart.

In fact, he has regarded this treasure as his own, so he cannot allow others to interfere.

But in this situation, there seems to be no other way. After all, Xiangqin was caught by Zuo Xingzhi. If this matter gets serious, it will not be of any benefit to herself.

And according to Liang Yan's speculation, Zuo Xingzhi shouldn't dare to swallow the Xuanshui Immortal Wood in broad daylight, otherwise how would he end up?

After thinking for a moment, Liang Yan finally made a decision and said with a smile: "Uncle, what are you talking about? How dare I be disrespectful to the elders of the sect? Since uncle wants to see it, I can only obey your order."

After saying that, he took out a gold-rimmed wooden box from his sleeve, took a few steps forward, walked to Zuo Xingzhi, and presented it with both hands.

"Haha, that's right."

Zuo Xingzhi's face showed a look of satisfaction, and he reached out to take the wooden box.

He didn't hide it either, and opened the box openly in front of Liang Yan and Xiangqin.

As the lid of the box was opened, a strong stream of water-attribute spiritual energy swarmed out, filling the entire mountain road in an instant.

Liang Yan felt as if he was in the vast ocean when he was in the middle of it. The breeze blew against his face and his spirits were lifted.

"It is indeed a rare treasure!"

Liang Yan sighed in his heart and wanted to take possession of this thing even more.

He remained calm on the surface, but secretly he was observing intently, wanting to see what the purpose of this "Uncle Zuo" was.

I saw Zuo Xingzhi picking up the Xuanshui Immortal Wood and looking at it carefully in the sun, with a look of admiration on his face.

"Tsk tsk! It's natural and perfect. It really is a water-attributed treasure! They say that Narcissus Ridge's heritage is second only to Aoki Cliff. I think this is true."

Zuo Xingzhi said while casting spells in secret.

A drop of blood essence the size of a fingernail flew out from the Xuanshui Immortal Wood and was quickly absorbed by Zuo Xingzhi's palm.

The whole process was short and secretive. Zuo Xingzhi used his sleeves to block the consciousness of the two people. It can be said that there was no flaw. If it is really "Qingshan" himself here, his actions will never be seen through.

Unfortunately, Liang Yan is not a "green mountain".

He had been running the "Bodhi Mirror" secretly for a long time and could see the whole process clearly.

"Why is there a drop of blood essence in the Xuanshui Immortal Wood?"

Liang Yan remained calm on the surface, but inside he was extremely surprised.

"Whose blood essence is this? How would Zuo Xingzhi know? Could it be that his target is not the Xuanshui Immortal Tree, but this drop of blood essence?"

While he was thinking about it, Zuo Xingzhi had already put the Xuanshui Immortal Wood back into the wooden box.

"Return the original."

Zuo Xingzhi threw the wooden box through the air.

Liang Yan hurriedly caught it, pretending to be respectful, and carefully put the wooden box back into the storage ring.

Zuo Xingzhi seemed to be in a good mood. He chuckled and said, "So this is the Xuanshui Immortal Wood. It's finally an eye-opener today! My nephew is great. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to Jinjia Valley to find me."

"Thank you so much, uncle!" Liang Yan said with cupped hands.

Zuo Xingzhi smiled slightly, said no more, turned around and disappeared on the mountain road into a wisp of smoke.

After watching Zuo Xing go away, Liang Yan and Xiang Qin did not stop, but walked down the mountain road and left quickly.

Xiangqin's mood was a little low. He lowered his head and said to Liang Yan: "Senior Brother Qingshan, it's all my fault. If I hadn't spoken out loud, this wouldn't have happened."

Of course Liang Yan knew that this matter had nothing to do with Xiangqin.

Even if she doesn't talk nonsense today, Zuo Xingzhi will find other excuses. In short, his purpose is to get the drop of blood essence in the Xuanshui Immortal Wood.

Whose essence and blood could it be?

Liang Yan secretly speculated that the drop of blood essence probably belonged to Lu Qinghe. After all, it was the treasure of Narcissus Ridge. Lu Qinghe attached great importance to it and never showed it to outsiders.

So the question is, why does Zuo Xingzhi want a drop of Lu Qinghe's blood?

Essence and blood, wait!

Liang Yan suddenly remembered a person, that was Demon Lord Qingyun!

This person is proficient in witchcraft and is good at casting curses. It is said that the monks of the witch sect can cast curses through blood, hair, etc., and kill people thousands of miles away.

Of course, this is just a legend. The so-called "killing people thousands of miles away" can only target monks who are weaker than themselves.

Facing an opponent of the same level, Wumen spells can only cause certain damage to them, causing them to be poisoned or injured, but cannot achieve the purpose of killing.

Liang Yan related what he had seen and heard these days, and had a vague guess in his mind.

Demon Lord Qingyun must have an internal agent in Wuzhuang Mountain, and this internal agent is probably Zuo Xingzhi!

The night before yesterday, Zuo Xingzhi lured the fake Wu Shiming out of Huoling Peak for him, so Demon Lord Qingyun could feel at ease in the main hall of Huoling Peak without any worries.

Because he knew that "Wu Shiming" would not be able to come back for a while, he had enough time to cast a spell on Yuan Zhenhuo.

Did Zuo Xingzhi collect Lu Qinghe's essence and blood to curse Demon Lord Qingyun? What is the purpose of the two of them working together?

"The situation is getting more and more complicated."

Liang Yan sighed secretly in his heart.

When he sneaked into Wuzhuang Mountain this time, he wanted to find the inheritance of Tianji Pavilion, and did not interfere with other things.

But he didn't expect that due to a strange combination of circumstances, he would still be involved in this dispute, and as he learned more and more, he seemed to be getting deeper and deeper into it.

It’s true that the trees want to be quiet, but the wind doesn’t stop!

Xiangqin had been observing Liang Yan's reaction. Seeing his frown, she thought he was still sulking at her, so she couldn't help but stop and said aggrievedly: "Brother Qingshan, Qin'er knows it's all my fault, but don't do this. You're so cold, I feel so wronged!"

Liang Yan came back to his senses and turned around to look, only to see this little girl looking like she was about to cry. She looked like she was going to lose her temper if she didn't coax her.

"Okay, okay, I'm not angry."

Liang Yan smiled slightly and touched Xiangqin's forehead: "This matter is not all your fault. Senior brother is also responsible for not supervising you. You will know in the future that we can talk about some things in private. Don't Let others eavesdrop."

"Um!"

Xiangqin nodded repeatedly, burying her face in Liang Yan's chest, and a pair of plump soft flesh rubbed against him.

"Let's go, it's important to carry out the mission."

Liang Yan did not get too chatty with her, and walked quickly with Xiangqin, and soon arrived at the entrance of Grandma Tianchi's cave.

He did not go in to visit immediately, but stopped at the door, his expression a little uncertain.
