In the end, Xie Shuci agreed.

Xie An probably saw the doubts in his heart, and told Xie Shuci that he could go by himself.

Xie Shuci refused without saying a word. How could he let the little blind man face those monks alone?

The four of them settled down in Manjiang Hall that night, and Chu Guiyi and the other two appeared outside the door early the next morning.

"Excuse me." Chu Guiyi nodded to the two of them after entering the room.

Xie Shuci asked the shop waiter to deliver some food, while yawning, he stuffed buns into his mouth, while Xie An sat quietly at the table, taking a sip of water from time to time.

Chu Wenfeng sat down carelessly, grabbed a bun and started to eat, Xie Shuci didn't know what to think, suddenly stuffed the fist-sized bun into his mouth, swallowed it in two mouthfuls, and then challenged Chu Wenfeng Shaking his hands.

"Childish." Chu Wenfeng scolded, and then finished eating the buns efficiently.

"You're not as fast as me... cough cough!"

Xie Shuci was choked suddenly, covered his mouth and coughed until his face turned red, and Chu Wenfeng laughed out loud.

Xie An paused when he heard the commotion, and then pushed half a cup of tea in his hand towards Xie Shuci.

Xie Shuci took the Gudong Gudong and took a big gulp. He slumped on the chair for the rest of his life. Seeing that Chu Wenfeng was out of breath from laughing, he really didn't have the energy to argue with him, so he silently raised his head to the opposite side. middle finger.

Although he didn't know the meaning of this gesture, Chu Wenfeng felt that it was not a good meaning. He imitated Xie Shuci's movement and pointed his middle finger back.

"Xie An, I still want to drink water." Xie Shuci was not as knowledgeable as he was, put the teacup in front of Xie An, and immediately started calling.

"You don't have long hands or eyes? Order a blind man?" Chu Wenfeng snorted when he saw it.

Xie Shuci said: "He has a name, don't keep calling him blind."

Not to be outdone, Chu Wenfeng said, "Didn't you also call him a blind man?"

Xie An's face was as calm as if the "blind man" in their mouths was not himself, and the man who had always been able to kill with a sword raised the teapot and filled the teacup in Xie Shuci's hand.

"I have double standards. I can shout, but you can't." Xie Shuci said straightforwardly. He simply felt that it was convenient to shout, but it was inexplicably ambiguous when shouted from other people's mouths.

"Double standard? What is it? Why do you keep uttering unfamiliar words." Chu Wenfeng asked suspiciously.

Chu Guiyi's eyes flicked across the teacup, and the tea was filled to the brim without revealing a drop, which seemed impossible for a blind person.

"Shu Ci, although you and I met by chance, you made me see each other so late. Since you gave me the elixir, I will treat you as a friend. I will not turn a blind eye to your difficulties." Chu Guiyi looked at the two with a smile, not without Probing, "What is the relationship between Young Master Xie and Free & Unfettered Sect? Why don't you tell me? I will try my best to solve your problems."

Chu Wenfeng had already told him everything that happened last night, and Chu Guiyi's doubts about Xie An's origin grew deeper and deeper. He is not a meddlesome person, but Shu Ci's heart is innocent and innocent, and it is difficult to survive in the realm of comprehension. Now that he is dragging this crippled body, he can help if he can.

What Xie An said yesterday, only Xie Shuci knew, and the other two could at most guess a little bit from Xie Shuci's reaction. In short, it had nothing to do with Xiao Xun.

Xie Shuci was a little hesitant, it must not be a good thing to be involved with Xiao Xun, Xie Shuci did not want to involve other people, so he said: "Brother Chu, this matter has nothing to do with you, please don't come again It's muddy water."

Chu Wenfeng also chimed in and said, "That's right, big brother, we don't have the energy to meddle in other people's affairs. Xie Shuci said so, let's leave it alone."

It was rare for Xie Shuci not to refute his words, "I believe in Xie An, and I just went to discuss with them how to find the real murderer. Under the eyes of everyone, what else can they do to me and Xie An? Anyway, they are well-known and decent. It can’t be so indiscriminate.”

Xie An listened to the conversation between the three in silence. When he heard Xie Shuci's words, his eyelashes twitched slightly. His long eyelashes covered his eyelids, and a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes.

Reputable? Who can be called decent? But Chu Guiyi shook his head and said: "Shu Ci, you think too simply. No matter what the truth is, there are only two of you, there is no fairy sect or sect to rely on behind you, and the right to speak is in the hands of others. If Free & Unfettered Sect or He The Lian family has some kind of conspiracy, it is easy to kill the two of you, if you have no evidence of death, the truth has become their family's word."

Xie Shuci was a person who couldn't stand intimidation, he thought about what Chu Guiyi said, and found that it made sense, the little blind man went alone like a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, wouldn't it be the same for the two of them? If something happened to happen, or it was just a Hongmen banquet, they might not know how they died, not to mention that Xie Shuci still had a lot of precious pills in his pocket, wasn't he just rushing to give away his head? He immediately regretted agreeing to He Lianzhu.

Chu Gui felt that his expression was relaxed, and continued: "Although the reputation of the Chu family is not as good as before, it still has a place among the hundred schools. Why don't I go with Wenfeng and you two together. Not alone."

Xie Shuci frowned in confusion, "Will you be in danger?"

Chu Wenfeng interjected: "Didn't He Lianzhu say that? It's just to catch the murderer together with the people from Joyous Union Sect. What's the matter? Although I don't want to get involved in your affairs, I just don't like He Lianzhu. Open your mouth and think that you are superior to others if you have a little talent, if it weren't for senior brother..."

Having said that, Chu Guiyi frowned and glanced at him, Chu Wenfeng's voice immediately weakened, and he lowered his head sadly, and said in a low voice, "...There's no place for him to be embarrassing."

"Don't worry, even if the Chu family declines, they won't easily offend them. If the two of us have an accident in Luofang City, the Helian family will not be able to explain it to us." Chu Guiyi said.

Hearing this, Xie Shuci didn't insist anymore, thanked the two of them, and then told them of Xie An's situation.

After hearing this, Chu Guiyi lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time. If the facts are as stated in the book, the occasional abnormality of Mr. Xie seems to be justified.

Chu Guiyi raised his eyes to look at the young man beside Xie Shuci, unable to figure out where the strangeness in his heart came from.

As if aware of his probing gaze, the young man sharply raised his head, his empty eyes met Chu Guiyi's for almost a moment, but before he could think deeply, the young man's eyes slipped away from him.

"There are people outside the door." Xie An clasped Xie Shuci's wrist with one hand, and parted his lips lightly.

Xie An's hearing has always been keen, Xie Shuci made a silent gesture to the other two without thinking.

There was a moment of silence in the room, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

After the previous fight, the four of them were extremely vigilant.

Chu Wenfeng directly pulled down the nine-section whip from his waist, and asked in a deep voice, "Who?"

"I, the proprietress of Manjiangtang." A female voice full of air came from outside.

Xie Shuci and Chu Wenfeng looked at each other, and they both recognized that this person was Miss Lu who fought Helian Jue in Nongyutang.

Xie Shuci opened the door slowly, and saw a woman in Tsing Yi standing outside the door holding a tray.

The woman's appearance is gentle and gentle, but the expression between her eyebrows and eyes is still heroic, giving people a heroic feeling.

Her eyes wandered around the four people in the room, and finally stopped on Xie Shuci, "So that Pill Cultivator with a mysterious background is you? It's a pleasure to meet you."

Xie Shuci had a good impression of this woman, and immediately cupped his fists and said, "Nice Xia, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm thanking Shuci."

"Lu Jin."

Then she looked at Chu Wenfeng again, and said with a smile: "This must be a disciple of the Chu family in Ying Province? Didn't you tell the elders in the family before you came here? According to Helian Jue, the master received a letter from the Chu family not long ago. bit trace."

Chu Wenfeng's face froze, "Did they find it?"

Lu Jin shook her head, "Don't worry, Master Dao, even if they chase after them, they won't be able to enter Luofang City for the time being, and it won't delay what you want to do."

Afterwards, her eyes fixed on Chu Guiyi, "Guiyi, you are still here."

After introducing Lu Jin into the room, Xie Shuci sat back next to Xie An, his curious eyes flicked between Lu Jin and Chu Guiyi.

Chu Wenfeng asked suspiciously, "Brother, do you know each other?"

Chu Guiyi pursed his lips, sighed after a long time, and nodded, "Miss Lu, long time no see."

"Your legs..." Lu Jin hesitated.

"No problem." Chu Guiyi turned his head slightly, as if unwilling to continue talking.

Lu Jin didn't say anything more, his eyes gradually shifted to Xie An.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, "What a handsome young master! How old is this year? Is there a marriage? Oh, I met you a few years ago, how could I fall in love with that bastard Helian Jue? But it's not too late now, young master, sister My name is Lu Jin, my family has more than ten acres of land, and I have no children..."

"Stop, stop!"

Seeing that she wanted to get closer to Xie An with all her heart, Xie Shuci reflexively stood between the two, "Woman, girl, he's still young..."

"It's okay, sister can wait for you."

Xie Shuci stood firmly in front of Xie An like a calf, and hurriedly said: "Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait, he, he doesn't have that intention, besides, don't you have a Taoist companion? Anyway, he is still young , you are not allowed to spoil him!"

Xie An calmed down, took Xie Shuci's half-drunk teacup, poured another half of it, his lips were wet in the cup, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth

"Taoist? Helian Jue? My mother will kick him sooner or later." After finishing speaking, she joked again: "If the young master is willing, my mother can kick him now."

"He doesn't want to!" Xie Shuci was so anxious that his ears turned red.

"How do you know he's not willing?" Lu Jin raised her eyebrows and looked behind him.

Xie Shuci also turned his head back to take a look, Xie An took a sip of tea, and the years were peaceful.

"I said he wouldn't if he didn't want to." Xie Shuci hummed.

Lu Jin smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. If Helian Jue dies one day, my old lady will leave with someone else."

Xie Shuci breathed a sigh of relief, but his body still did not relax. He deliberately stood in front of Xie An, preventing them from getting in touch.

He asked curiously: "He has cheated on her, and you still want to be with him?"

Chu Wenfeng sneered and said, "Can Hongxing be used like this when he is out of the wall?"

Xie Shuci glared at him, too lazy to argue with him.

Lu Jin shrugged her shoulders and said half-truthfully, "I don't think he's pitiful. Besides me, which woman would love him?"

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a clear cough outside the door, and then she deliberately raised her voice: "Yesterday, the girl Wan'er from Nongyutang was full of praise for me."

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Jin's face darkened immediately.

"The new female disciple recruited by the head is also good, younger than you and more beautiful..."

"He Lianjue, you're courting death!" Lu Jin said through gritted teeth, then picked up the tray and threw it out the door.

The door leaf was cut in half by the tray, and the man behind the door dodged, pointed at Lu Jin and cursed: "You shrew, I must teach you a lesson today!"

"Come on, who is afraid of whom?!"

They started fighting as soon as they disagreed, and the fight became fierce in an instant. Several waiters from the shop hurried over, all of them were full of helplessness, as if they had already seen it.

"pretty!"

"The heroine beat him!"

Xie Shuci and Chu Wenfeng looked like melon-eaters who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal. After taking Xie An and Chu Guiyi away from the battlefield, they sat beside them and watched with relish.

"Crazy woman! Do you really want to tear down the store?" Helian Jue was beaten back and forth, seeing that there was nothing intact around him, his teeth ached from the pain.

Lu Jin sneered: "My mother's family has more than ten acres of land, and I lack a Manjiang Tang in your area? Look at the trick——"

Lu Jin's moves became more and more fierce, and Helian Jue had to draw out his sword to resist.

Xingxu failed to control his strength in desperation, his long sword swept across the air, and a white sword glow struck at the four of Xie Shuci.

But Jianmang is very fast and has a clear purpose, it doesn't seem like he did it unintentionally.

"You..." Lu Jin gave him a suspicious look.

Helian Jue shook his head slightly at her, looked past Xie Shuci, and looked at Xie An standing quietly behind him with downcast eyes.

Lu Jin followed his gaze and frowned. Xie Shuci never thought that eating melons would eat him.

Facing the strong wind from the sword light, Xie Shuci's eyes were dull and his legs were weak. At the very moment, a pair of long arms wrapped around his waist, and then his body was lightened, his legs were suspended in the air, and he was directly taken away from the place.

There was a "boom" in my ears, and the wooden table was split into pieces, and the sawdust was flying in the air.

Xie Shuci turned his head to look at the place where he was originally standing, grasped Xie An's cuff tightly in shock, and muttered something in his mouth: "Don't watch it, don't watch it, don't watch the fun anymore."

"Oh - I'm really sorry, didn't you hurt the two of you?" Helian Jue ran over with a smiling face, and Xie Shuci felt hateful no matter how he saw it.

Xie An's face was very gloomy, his lips were tightly pressed, and the big palm clasped around Xie Shuci's waist was a little hard, making him unable to move.

When Helian Jue came to the front, Xie An's long legs swept away, and Helian Jue quickly stepped back to avoid his flying kick.

After Helian Jue stabilized his figure, he gave Xie An a meaningful look, "Young master is very skilled."

The two of Chu Wenfeng were also almost affected, he was young and energetic, he raised his whip and swung at Helian Jue, "Are you looking for death?"

"Wenfeng, don't be impulsive." Chu Guiyi looked indifferent, and reached out to grab Chu Wenfeng's bird nine-section whip.

Helian Jue withdrew his gaze from Xie An, turned to look at Chu Guiyi, with a more serious expression, "Brother Chu, we haven't seen you for many years, why didn't we know before we came here?"

Chu Guiyi shook his head lightly: "This trip is not at the behest of the Patriarch, so it's inconvenient to make it public."

"Brother Chu is out."

Chu Guiyi glanced in the direction of Xie Shuci and the two, and pointed out: "Brother Helian has doubts in his heart, you might as well speak out directly, so as not to hurt innocent people."

Helian Jue laughed twice, but didn't speak.

Xie Shuci noticed that Xie An's arm was exerting great force, and he was almost inserting himself into his body, and the five fingers clasped around his waist were constantly closing in. He raised his head suspiciously, and saw that Xie An's jawline was tense, His face was heavy, as if he was trying to restrain himself.

His appearance made Xie Shuci a little scared, so he patted Xie An's arm lightly, and shouted in a low voice: "Little blind man? Are you okay?"

Xie An was taken aback for a moment, then let go of his hand, and shook his head slightly at Xie Shuci, signaling that he was fine.

"Really?" Xie Shuci looked at him suspiciously.

Xie An returned to normal, and after a while, he asked Xie Shuci: "Is the person here Helianshi Helian Jue?"

Xie Shuci nodded and said, "Yes, do you know him?"

Chu Guiyi and Helian Jue themselves had doubts about Xie An, and when they heard Xie Shuci talking, they shifted their gazes to the two of them.

Xie An had a smile on his lips, and his lips parted slightly, "He has a junior named He Lianzhu."

"Yes, that's a genius with his eyes above his head." Xie Shuci said.

The other four people didn't know what Xie An said, they just guessed a little bit from Xie Shuci's words.

"Really." Xie An showed surprise, "But I heard that He Lianzhu never showed any talent before the age of seven."

Xie Shuci was taken aback, "Ah? Really?"

Helian Jue looked vigilant and asked, "What did he say?"

Xie Shuci first glanced at Xie An in confusion, while the latter looked flat.

"Oh...he said, before He Lianzhu was seven years old, he didn't seem to have much talent." Xie Shuci hesitated.

In the world of comprehension, the aptitude of a monk is almost determined from birth, unless the monster inner core or some extremely rare secret treasures have a chance to be changed later.

Xie Shuci didn't think too much about it, maybe he just used the inner core or secret treasure.

But after hearing Xie Shuci's words, Helian Jue was shocked, and the blood faded from his face instantly.

Lu Jin was also shocked, her expression became serious, and she asked in a deep voice, "Where did you hear that? It's ridiculous!"

Xie Shuci didn't expect them to react so strongly, and looked at Xie An at a loss.

Xie An smiled calmly, "I come from Free & Unfettered Sect, so naturally I heard it from Free & Unfettered Sect."

Xie Shuci told the truth to several people. After hearing Xie Shuci's words, Helian Jue was silent for a long time, took a deep look at Xie An, turned around and left the room with Lu Jin without saying anything.

Xie Shuci and Chu Wenfeng looked at each other with confused faces.

"This is him?"

"It seems that He Lianzhu has been hard hit all these years."

"Could it be true what your brother said?"

The two turned their gazes to Xie An again.

Xie An crossed his arms and leaned against the screen, lowered his head slightly, his long eyelashes drooped, he couldn't see his expression clearly, and he didn't intend to answer their questions.

After pondering for a while, Chu Guiyi said: "If Young Master Xie is right, then there is something else hidden about this matter. Helian Jue and I were old acquaintances, and our friendship...is quite good."

"Eldest brother, is it the years when you practiced outside?" Chu Wenfeng asked.

"That's right. Helian Jue was only fourteen years old when he became the chief disciple. In a fairy gate general election, he was unrivaled in holding a cloud-breaking gun all the way through. Even the chief disciple of the Free & Unfettered Sect at that time was defeated by him, although In the end, the family's power lost to the Great Immortal Sect in several other states, and it failed to enter the Buddha Realm, which is considered a big show."

Xie Shuci said in surprise, "Is he so powerful?"

Chu Guiyi nodded and said: "Before He Lianzhu appeared, he was also a rare talent in the Helian family."

"How does that compare to Xiao Xun?" Xie Shuci suddenly asked.

Chu Wenfeng turned to Byakugan, "Xiao Xun Xiao Xun Xiao Xun, why do you always get involved with him? Are you afraid of him or like him?"

Hearing this, Xie An, who had been silent all this time, raised his head, and glanced in the direction of Xie Shuci intentionally or unintentionally.

Xie Shuci shrank his neck, "I like him? I don't want to live anymore?"

Xie An's face darkened slightly, and he turned his head away.

Chu Guiyi shook his head and said: "I am afraid that there is no second person in the world today who can be compared with Xiao Xun."

Xie Shuci thought that was not true, he was the author's own son.

Chu Guiyi continued: "Shortly after the election of Xianmen, He Lianzhu suddenly became famous. Not only is his talent excellent, but his cultivation level has also improved by leaps and bounds. Helian Jue didn't care about reputation at all, but he chose to seal Poyun Spear soon after. After a setback, he was willing to be covered by the light of He Lianzhu. The world said that he was not as talented as his junior, and he was only willing to fall after being hit. Now it seems that this may not be the case."

Xie Shuci wrinkled his face and tried hard to recall the plot in the original book, but unfortunately he didn't read carefully at that time, and only Xiao Xun's cruel behavior left a deep impression on him.

Speaking of this, Chu Guiyi couldn't help sighing, "It's because of this that there was a gap between him and me."

Xie Shuci felt like he was playing a decrypted dungeon. He was very curious about the truth behind the incident and the causal relationship. He looked at Xie An and asked, "Xie An, have you heard of anything else?"

Xie An shook his head lightly, saying no.

"What does their Helian's matter have to do with you?" Chu Wenfeng shrugged.

"You don't understand, human curiosity can be traced back to ancient times."

Although Xie Shuci and Chu Guiyi were puzzled, there was no substantive evidence, so the matter was put on hold for the time being.

On the second day, Xie Shuci and others woke up early, and before they had breakfast, they were taken back to Helian's house by Helian Jue.

It is said that several elders of Joyous Union Sect rushed to Luofang City in the middle of the night, and they couldn't wait to seek justice for the death of their disciples.

Helian's is different from ordinary fairy gates.

They do not have their own Immortal Mountain, but are located in the very center of Luofang City, like a spring.

There are two golden pillars in front of the gate, and there are several magnificent halls inside, which look like rich people.

"Vulgar." Chu Wen followed slowly at the end, with his hands resting on the back of his head, his eyes showing disdain, and he looked down on Helian's big hand.

"If one gold brick is deducted, how much silver will it cost?" Xie Shuci looked enviously at the two big gold pillars.

"Xie Shuci, you are an ordinary person."

"Vulgar breaking the law?"

Helian Jue walked around two small halls and brought the four of them to a large hall.

He knocked on the door and stopped, "Patriarch, you are here."

"Come in."

Helian Jue pushed open the door of the hall, and the picture inside the hall came into view of the four people.

Judging from the clothes, there are at least five immortal sects in the hall. They all looked serious and focused their attention on the four of them at the same time.

Every monk present has a certain status in the realm of comprehension, and the strong and abundant spiritual power on his body pressed towards Xie Shuci and the others almost instantly.

"Shu Ci, use spiritual power to protect you and Young Master Xie." Chu Guiyi reminded in a low voice from behind.

Xie Shuci originally felt that a heavy stone was pressing on his body, but upon hearing Chu Guiyi's words, he immediately circulated the spiritual power in his body to wrap himself and Xie An in it.

But in the face of spiritual oppression, words of thanks cannot be avoided.

These high-ranking people, all with bright eyes, kept wandering around and probing the four of them. Xie Shuci had the feeling of being stripped naked and thrown in the crowd, and unconsciously shrank two points behind Xie An.

Looking at the other three people, they were all calm, and they walked into the hall without humility under the leadership of Helian Jue.

Deng Fengming sat on the right side, and when he saw Xie An, his whole body tensed up. Thinking of what to do next, Deng Fengming's palms were sweating unceasingly. If he succeeds, it's fine, if he fails... I'm afraid it will not end well.

"Patriarch." Helian Jue bowed to the man on the throne.

Standing beside the man was a disciple who was He Lianzhu himself. Bringing Helian with him at such a time shows how much Patriarch Helian relies on him.

He Lianzhu seemed to have gotten used to it a long time ago, and even went as far as to say on his behalf: "Senior brother, you go down first."

Facing He Lianzhu's contemptuous attitude, He Lian decided not to change his countenance, bowed his head in answer "yes", and silently exited the hall.

"What a loser." Chu Wenfeng snorted.

Patriarch Helian glanced at He Lianzhu, but did not make any criticism, and acquiesced that He Lianzhu exercised his rights, and then said to the women in red on the left: "I have brought you here, do you have any questions?"?”

Xie Shuci glanced over there curiously, probably because of the way of cultivation, they are completely different from the elders Xie Shuci imagined, they all look like young women, with the best looks, ruddy skin, and willow-like figure, Leaning leaning on the arm of the chair.

A female catkin played with the blue silk, and looked at the four of them casually. Her eyes were like silk, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be drawn, sticky and greasy.

Xie Shuci has lived for so many years, read countless films (cartoons), and seen countless beautiful sisters in the second dimension, but he has never seen such a three-dimensional beauty with his own eyes, bright eyes and white teeth, and smooth skin. come out.

Seeing Xie Shuci staring blankly at her, the woman showed a gorgeous smile generously, "Xiao Daoist, do I look good?"

Xie Shuci's eyes were clear, and he nodded obediently, "It looks good."

Not only is it good-looking, but even the voice is sweet.

"Then me or the young master next to you, who is more beautiful?" The woman raised his slender hand and pointed to Xie An.

Xie Shuci said without hesitation: "He is good-looking."

woman:"……"
