Estranged

Chapter 23: I want you to go down with me.

Yunhai thought that Changming would lose his temper.

At the very least, it was cynicism and ignorance.

After all, throwing someone in front of Zhang Mu is tantamount to letting him die for nothing.

If Chang Ming had made a slight mistake, he might have seen a corpse now.

Maybe not even a dead body.

Because the Seven Star River has been completely destroyed due to the shattered barrier.

Jiuchongyuan lost the first abyss.

Although he didn't expect him to survive, Yun Hai found that he was in a good mood.

At the very least, Chang Ming had better not die before he had thoroughly figured out this person and lost interest in him.

Yun Hai was a little happy, and his steps were also brisk, and his smile became happier.

"You don't have to be shy, Fellow Daoist Changming. If you see me feeling happy, you might as well say it."

Even Xu Jingxian, a cold and unscrupulous demon cultivator, felt that Yunhai might not be normal.

For ordinary lunatics, if you don't like it, you can beat him up, you can kill him, and you can't see him.

For unfathomable lunatics, the best way is to stay away, as far away as possible.

She coveted Yunhai's beauty, but she had the self-knowledge that she couldn't deal with this kind of lunatic, so she gradually stopped thinking, not to mention dual cultivation, even Chunxiao's once thoughts were completely gone.

But the other party took the initiative to come to the door, she can't chase him away, can she?

"I'm really happy, thinking about it day and night, tossing and turning." Chang Ming really answered.

With a tired expression and a lazy posture, he unconsciously reached out to touch his heart. It must have hurt a little, and his lips turned white again, but his face was still calm and indifferent.

It's not deliberately pretending to be plain, it's because patience has become a habit, and it's because I didn't take these pains to heart.

A person who is so determined that he ignores his own pain must have experienced many more painful sufferings than this one.

And such a person should have stood at the top of the world, instead of wandering around the world.

Seeing it, Yunhai became more interested in him.

"Fellow Daoist Changming has lost weight."

"That must have been caused by being framed by Fellow Daoist Yun and busy escaping from death." Chang Ming said.

Yun Hai laughed and sat cross-legged beside him.

"Then Yun is here to make amends!"

Chang Ming: "I'm afraid Fellow Daoist Yun has another whim, and thinks of some idea to cheat me. If you apologize, I will die."

His eyes fell on the glass and gold bead stick on his knee, and Yun Hai smiled slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Changming, you can't say that you haven't gained anything at all, can you? And I also have good intentions. So many people gathered at the Seven Stars Terrace. I wonder if you have found the old friend you want to meet?"

Chang Ming: "I saw it from the beginning, but for some reason, he doesn't remember me."

Yun Hai: "There are people with similar looks in the world, Yunyun, you must have misunderstood the person."

Chang Ming: "I trust my eyes."

Yunhai spread his hands: "It seems that Fellow Daoist Changming is very stubborn."

Chang Ming: "How did you know that Zhang Mu has a problem?"

Yun Hai smiled mysteriously: "Do you believe in a saying? The same kind will always be more sensitive to the smell of the same kind."

Xu Jingxian half-understood the conversation between the two of them, which seemed to be a game of wit, and when she heard the last sentence, she thought of Zhang Mu's true face, and couldn't help but become horrified.

Chang Ming's face remained normal, and Yun Hai was also calm and composed, as if the person who said this sentence was not himself.

"You Daoist Yun doesn't seem to come in from the outside like us, but it seems that he has been here all the time."

"I also came in from the outside, but it was earlier than you."

The sea of ​​clouds looked up at the sky, and the stars were everywhere, shining brightly.

For the monks who came in from outside, everything in Jiuchongyuan was very new, strange and strange, emerging endlessly.

But to him, even a spectacle like the Rainbow Bridge, the sea of ​​clouds is already taken for granted.

Xu Jingxian's heart skipped a beat: "Fellow Daoist Yun, have you ever heard of real grass?"

Yun Hai shook his head and asked strangely, "What is that? A kind of herbal medicine?"

Xu Jingxian turned her head to stare at Chang Ming, and paused every word: "You, lied to me?"

The old **** Changming is here: "If he doesn't know, it doesn't necessarily mean that I don't know. How many people in the world can match my knowledge and talents?"

Yun Hai actually nodded in agreement: "Fellow Daoist Changming is indeed well-educated."

Xu Jingxian: ...

She gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that the other party was determined that she would not be able to kill him in Jiuchongyuan.

"However," Yun Hai changed the subject, "The Eighth Abyss Sky Waterfall is the only place in Jiuchongyuan that is full of exotic flowers and plants. Many flowers and plants can't even be named by me, and they all have their own magic. There may be the real grass you are looking for."

Xu Jingxian raised her eyebrows: "Fellow Daoist Yun has even been to the Eighth Abyss?"

Yunhai smiled: "It's just from hearsay."

Xu Jingxian was speechless.

Chang Ming suddenly said: "What about the Ninth Abyss?"

Yun Hai shook his head: "I have never set foot here, so I know nothing about it."

His answer was not thorough, and there were many loopholes when he thought about it carefully, but people refused to say that Chang Ming really had nothing to do with him.

Now they haven't even figured out the second abyss, and the eighth abyss exists indefinitely, Xu Jingxian felt a little desperate for a while.

When she really goes out from Jiuchongyuan, it won't be "a day in the mountain, a thousand years in the world", won't she be robbed of her position as the leader of Lingbo Peak, which she got through so much hard work?

She was so upset that she lost even the desire to speak.

Chen Ting and others just came back.

Several people looked heavy and their brows were tightly locked.

The others knew that Xu Jingxian was from the Blood Sect, so they refused to initiate a conversation. Only Chen Ting came over.

"Fellow Daoist Yun, you're here too?" He was a little surprised because he hadn't seen Yunhai just now.

Yunhai smiled and said nothing.

Except for Chang Ming and Xu Jingxian, he was a little arrogant towards others.

In other words, he is only interested in Chang Ming, and he is a little boring to everyone else.

Chen Ting didn't pay attention to him either.

"Fellow daoists, the situation is not good."

Chen Ting, He Qingmo and others originally wanted to understand the terrain here.

Unexpectedly, they found Wei Yichong's body under the bridge.

Wei Yichong obviously jumped into Jinghu Lake from the bridge, but his body was leaning against a tree beside the bridge.

His hands and feet were all broken, his limbs were twisted, his face was hideous, and he could not rest in peace.

It was like seeing a strange horror that he had never seen in his life before dying, even his mouth was still slightly open, but the sword he was carrying was gone.

A sword cultivator, with the sword in his hand, even lost his own weapon, still died in such a tragic way. Chen Ting and others felt incredible. They searched around, but they couldn't find any clues. Xia Chang cried even more. Who would have thought that a quarrel would turn into eternal separation.

The grass and trees under the bridge are scattered, and the flowers and trees are sparse. No matter how you look at it, no one can detect any danger.

However, no matter how far Chen Ting and the others go, they will eventually find themselves back at the Rainbow Bridge.

They seem to be trapped in an invisible and intangible bottle, and they can never get out.

"We didn't find anyone else, and we didn't see Xu Fenglin either. He probably has gone to the third abyss, so there should be an exit here." Chen Ting said.

Wei Yichong has already ruled out one of the options for them with his life, and this exit is absolutely impossible to jump off the bridge.

Xu Jingxian: "What are the plans of Fellow Daoist Chen?"

Chen Ting glanced at He Qingmo: "Let's let Fellow Daoist He do the talking."

He Qingmo didn't want to deal with the Demon Cultivator and the Demon Girl, but now they counted Chen Ting, and there were only five of them in total. If they wanted to implement the plan, they had to add Xu Jingxian and three of them.

"I'm going to set up a gossip formation. If it goes well, everyone can leave here. At present, there are eight hexagram positions, and there are still three Zhenxunli who are unguarded. I need three help me."

Chang Ming and the others were all sitting cross-legged, but He Qingmo was the only one standing, feeling somewhat condescending.

But when he saw several people looking up at him and talking, he didn't want to sit down on his knees.

Xu Jingxian smiled sweetly: "Fellow Daoist He, what is the purpose of this gossip array, you have to tell us a thing or two, right?"

He Qingmo frowned slightly: "You may not understand if I say it, as long as you know that I will not harm you."

Xu Jingxian was still smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"How do you know we don't understand if you don't tell me?"

Chen Ting smoothed things over.

"Everyone, don't be impatient. Fellow Daoist He told me a few words just now. Let me explain. He felt that since Qixinghe itself is a formation, so should Rainbow Bridge. Since it is a formation, there will be formation eyes and formations." The method of breaking the formation, since it is a formation, has many changes and remains the same, it is better to break it according to the simplest eight trigrams formation, eight people guard eight directions, as long as one of them finds the eye of the formation and informs the others, they can work together Go forward to attack and break it. Fellow Daoist He said that he himself guards the Kun position of the Death Gate, and the other seven of us each guard one. I don’t know what the three think?"

Xu Jingxian raised her beautiful eyes slightly: "Then why should we believe that he won't deliberately leave us a dangerous place, and then step on us to leave here?"

Before He Qingmo could speak, the Taoist beside him spoke first.

"You demon girl, don't know what is good or bad. Brother He is the person who is best at setting up and breaking formations in Shenxiao Xianfu. Last time, Qianxiulou paid a lot of money to invite him to set up formations, but he didn't go. If there are only eight people here now, there are only eight people here. There is no need to find you!"

Xu Jingxian grinned: "I'm a demon girl, so what are you who are cooperating with the demon girl, are you demon men?"

Chen Ting wanted to laugh, but held back, but the sea of ​​clouds beside him didn't show face, so he just laughed out loud.

"you!"

The Taoist rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight, but He Qingmo held him down.

"I saw it just now. The bridge shadow that should have been reflected on the bridge and the mirror lake is exactly two and a half bridges forming a circle. If you don't break the circle, everyone will be trapped here forever. It's no good for you either Good thing, think about it carefully, don't be impulsive!"

He Qingmo spoke the truth, but his expression was still arrogant, and he refused to soften his figure in the slightest.

Xu Jingxian likes the way these famous sects look down on the witches but come to ask for cooperation when they have something to do.

"So what if we act impulsively?"

Junior brother He Qingmo said first: "Then we have no choice but to throw you down!"

He was afraid that other people would block him, so he shot immediately after speaking, drew his sword out of its sheath, and stabbed Xu Jingxian, intending to teach this witch a lesson.

The long sword was moving very quickly with the sword energy, and it reached the tip of Xu Jingxian's nose in the blink of an eye. Unexpectedly, a white light appeared between the sword and the person. The disciple of Shenxiao Xianfu took a closer look and found that the white light was actually a leaf.

He retreated a few steps quickly, and the leaves were still chasing after him, rubbing the blade of the sword and coming straight to his face.

Xu Jingxian's giggles sounded beside her ears.

It really is a witch!

The disciple gritted his teeth, ejected the sword light with his backhand, and hit the leaf. The leaf was divided into five pieces and turned into five streaks of ice.

He was shocked, and finally realized how powerful it was. At this moment, He Qingmo couldn't stand it anymore, so he shot directly, and knocked off all five pieces of ice with a flick of his sleeve.

"Enough is enough!"

Xu Jingxian said with a smile: "If I don't make a move, it's fine. If I make a move, there will be blood. Our family Minglang is kind. He didn't want me to take your brother's dog's life, so I just took the initiative to help me teach him. Are you still ungrateful?"

Chang Ming coughed twice: "Fairy is so fickle, she used to say that I don't look like a man, but now she's called Ming Lang again."

Xu Jingxian turned her head: "Shut up!"

The disciples who tried to teach others a lesson failed but were taught a lesson were all colorful on their faces, so exciting.

Chen Ting hurriedly stopped among them, for fear that they would clash again.

In his opinion, the people in Shenxiao Xianfu have high-level eyes, and it is indeed difficult to get along with them. If He Qingmo had some skills, he would not be bothered to be this peacemaker, but he still needs to cooperate if he wants to go out now.

Chang Ming said: "You Daoist He's plan sounds fine, but how do you ensure that the eight of us can still rush to help at any time when we are far apart? Once someone finds an opening or an exit, how will you notify others?"

He Qingmo said lightly with his hands behind his back: "I will give you some cinnabar specially made by my teacher. Once any of you are in fatal danger or find the eyes of the array, wipe off the cinnabar immediately. down to find you."

Yun Hai smiled: "Sure enough, it's a very clever method, I have no objection."

Chang Ming glanced at him, always feeling that the other party's words had hidden meaning.

"If Fellow Daoist He is sure, we are naturally willing to cooperate." He also said.

Now Xu Jingxian became a loner, she cursed Chang Ming secretly, smiling like a flower.

"Since my companions have agreed, I will naturally advance and retreat together with them. But since the rainbow bridge can't tell the direction up, down, left, or right, how can Fellow Daoist He determine the position of the eight of us?"

He Qingmo took out a snow-white pen from his sleeve, the tip of the pen was bright red, as if stained with cinnabar.

He drew in the air, and a circle appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Don't worry about where the formation is, because we don't know anything, so the position in the middle of the Rainbow Bridge is one of the directions. Assuming it is the dry position, then it corresponds to the opposite side of the bridge. That point is the position of Death Gate Kun."

Xu Jingxian: "What do you mean, someone should jump down to guard the death gate? Don't forget how that person died just now."

He Qingmo said coldly: "Wei Yichong didn't jump off the middle of the bridge at all just now. Since it's a formation, we must pay attention to the direction. If there is a slight mistake, it will be a thousand miles away. You don't have to worry, I will guard the position of Kun, and wait for it." I will be the first to jump off the bridge, and my juniors will also come to the other two positions under the bridge, you just need to guard the other three positions.”

Chang Ming looked at the expressions of the other two who were walking with him, and thought that your juniors might not be so willing to risk their lives to try your method.

He Qingmo pointed out all the directions for everyone, and used a pen to touch a cinnabar on each of their forearms.

When it was Yunhai's turn, the other party didn't move.

He Qingmo looked at him.

Yunhai showed the back of his hand.

He Qingmo: "Roll up your sleeves a bit higher, and focus on the Shaohai acupoint for the best effect."

Yun Hai: "I am shy by nature, and I don't like to show my body in front of people I don't know."

He Qingmo: ...

His junior brother still wanted to taunt, but when he touched Yunhai's line of sight, he retracted unconsciously.

In the end, He Qingmo had no choice but to tap a little on the back of Yunhai's hand, which was better than nothing.

Guan Xiashang timidly said: "Brother Chen Dao, can I exchange with you and stay at the gate of life?"

He Qingmo said coldly: "I just said that the gate of life may not be the real gate of life, it's just the position I assumed in order to set up the formation, and it may be the only dead end instead. Have you thought about it?"

Guan Xiashang had tears in her eyes and did not speak.

Trapped here right now, no one has the mood to pity and cherish jade, not to mention that monks have a stronger determination to resist temptation than ordinary people.

Seeing her like this, He Qingmo thought of Wei Yichong's death again, and found it annoying. He didn't even bother to take another look, and took out eight exquisitely carved sleeve arrows from his sleeve.

"I will throw these eight arrows in eight directions for your convenience."

He asked to take off the bow on his back, summoned the flying sword, hovered over the center of the Rainbow Bridge, and shot seven of the arrows in seven directions, and shot the last arrow at the center of the Rainbow Bridge, standing in emptiness .

"I'll take a step ahead, and I hope you don't make any mistakes."

He glanced at everyone, and resolutely, he jumped off the middle of the bridge first.

But his two juniors hesitated.

Xu Jingxian deliberately said: "Could it be that you want to go back on your word and let your senior brother die for nothing?"

One of them, the one who made the move just now, glared at her fiercely, walked to his position, hesitated for a moment, and leaped neatly.

The other person really retreated.

"Before we went out, the master lit a soul lamp for each of us, and each soul lamp was tied with a red thread. If there is any news that the senior brother wants to pass on, I can also detect it. You might as well wait a little longer. Maybe the senior brother will soon Just found the eye."

He found excuses and reasons for himself, no matter how much Xu Jingxian provoked him, he refused to jump down again.

Chen Ting had nothing to do with him, so he had to say: "Then you trade with me, I'll go."

"Wait."

Chang Ming suddenly said, "Look!"

The scenery of the lake changed again.

The blue sky and white clouds disappeared, replaced by boiling flames, and the sea of ​​flames was overwhelming.

Even though he knew that this was just an illusion, the scene in front of him was like a purgatory, and he still felt a burning sensation rushing towards his face.

Guan Xiashang even took two steps back unconsciously, showing timidity on her face.

Now, that junior brother He Qingmo refused to jump down any more.

Yun Hai suddenly smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Changming, do you have the guts to take a trip?"

Chang Ming: "Fellow Daoist Yun, do you want me to go with you?"

"This Jinghu lake is so wonderful, I've wanted to find out for a long time. What Fellow Daoist He thinks coincides with me, so what if I go there myself?" Yun Hai said, "Don't forget our bet. , Last time you lost, Sad Tree not only could not live for three days, but also died so quickly, I would like to accept the bet, you owe me nothing, now I want you to accompany me to go down."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chang Ming and the others to react, he reached out to grab Chang Ming!

"Wait!"

Xu Jingxian reacted very quickly and also went to catch Chang Ming.

But her movement was still half a step slow, Yunhai had already grabbed Changming's arm, dragged them together and jumped into the sea of ​​fire under the bridge.

Everyone was stunned.

Wei Yichong's death was still in sight, even He Qingmo's juniors couldn't believe the certainty of his plan, and the two actually jumped off? !

Chen Ting suddenly remembered one thing: eight people guarded eight positions, and now two people jumped to one place, where would they find someone to fill the extra position?

The author has something to say:

ps, Yunhai is Yunweisi, not a clone. As can be seen from the previous article, Yunhai has no memory of Yunweisi, nor Changming, which means starting from scratch.
