That sword fairy is back

Su Jianxing boiled a pot of water, poured a cup and pushed it to Zhong Qi, "Be careful of it being hot."

There was a hint of laziness and casualness in the girl's clear voice.

The atmosphere was not as serious as Zhong Qi imagined.But it was undeniable that such an atmosphere also made him relax a lot, and his stiff back relaxed slightly.

He reached for the glass of water.The hot water temperature is transmitted to the fingertips through the wall of the cup.

The intruding hotness caused his fingers to shrink slightly but stretched out quickly, holding the glass wall firmly, and brought the water glass in front of him: "Thank you."

Su Jianxing glanced at him, the corner of his mouth slightly curved: "You're welcome."

After a few simple dialogues, the atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.

Silent but not terribly awkward.

Su Jianxing took the remaining half pot of water to make tea for himself.Her movements are silky smooth, fluid and pleasing to the eye.

Soon, the fragrance of tea wafted from Guanyun Pavilion.

"It smells so good." Zhong Qi moved his nose and said.Looking down at the white water in his hand again, he suddenly felt that the white water was a bit bland.

Su Jianxing took out another cup and filled it with tea soup, and then pushed it to him: "Then have a taste."

Thus, two identical cups were placed in front of Zhong Qi, but filled with different liquids.

One is filled with white water, and the other is filled with tea soup.

Does this mean something?Is the boss trying to tell himself through these two cups of tea that he now faces two choices?
For a while, Zhong Qi thought a lot, stared at the two cups for a long time, but did not move a cup, as if whichever one was moved first represented the choice he had made.

"Why don't you drink it? Plain water doesn't matter, but tea tastes best when it's warm and slightly hot, and it's bitter if it's too cold."

Seeing him not moving for a long time, Su Jianxing thought he was waiting for the water temperature to drop, but when she had finished her second cup, the person in front of her was still in a daze, so she kindly reminded her.

"Ah?" Zhong Qi seemed to be awakened from his own thoughts and came back to his senses.He glanced at Su Jianxing quickly, but moved away even faster.Immediately, he picked up the cup containing the tea and drank it down.

"Good tea." He wiped his mouth and said.

Good tea?With his way of drinking like a cow, I'm afraid it's like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, and he can't taste any flavor.

Su Jianxing was noncommittal, just lifted the pot to refill the empty cup, and then said: "Thank you for coming to see me today."

Zhong Qi coughed lightly, and said politely: "Where, where, it is my honor to meet you."

This tone is more polite than the sect's disciples meeting the head sect.

Su Jianxing laughed out loud, and squinted at him: "Are you afraid of me?"

"How could it be?" Zhong Qi's heart sank, he straightened his back, and said bravely.

Su Jianxing: "It's good if you're not afraid of me." After that, she asked him again: "Then do you know why I saw you?"

Zhong Qi shook his head, and said calmly: "I don't know, but I heard from Lao Tan that Su Daoyou met me to ask a few questions."

Su Jianxing nodded: "I do have a few questions I want to ask you, please give me your advice."

"Don't dare to teach me." Zhong Qi hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Since Daoist Su is sincerely asking, as long as I know and can answer, I will naturally know everything and say everything."

Su Jianxing glanced at him.It is very cautious, remember to add a prefix condition before answering the question.

But Su Jianxing didn't expect him to let go of his guard and communicate frankly after a face-to-face meeting, so he smiled and said to himself: "Actually, I have noticed you when I was in the deserted city."

What?Zhong Qi was startled, and stared straight at Su Jianxing.

But she didn't seem to notice his expression of losing his composure, she put her eyes on the mountains covered by clouds in the distance, and said slowly: "In Shuhai Pavilion, I heard the conversation between you and your friend."

Zhong Qi had no expression on his face, and his mind was spinning at high speed, just wanting to recall what he said back then.

Life in the deserted city is boring, and every day is nothing but cultivation, except for gossip, and there are not many things worth talking about with others.

But Zhong Qi knew that if he died, he might die here.Occasionally he will reveal a sentence or two of news from the original plot.

But this "occasionally" is very spiritual, because there is a saying that adding up makes more.

The "occasionally" he thought was now a lot.

As a result, his CPU was almost burned out, but he was still not sure which piece of news he had revealed.

Su Jianxing: "You said that day that I was trapped in the tide of monsters because someone did it deliberately, just to kill me."

Is this the original?Zhong Qi was relieved when he heard this.

He settled down and asked: "I have indeed heard about this matter. Could it be that Fellow Daoist Su wanted to find out who was behind the scenes? But it's a pity, I only heard about this matter while listening to other people's chats. Don't know who exactly."

He really didn't know who did what to Su Jianxing, and he didn't even know how to do it.In the original plot, there is only a short sentence "Being victimized by people, trapped in the tide of monsters, and even the bones have not been found."

It was also because he saw Su Jianxing, who was supposed to disappear in the tide of monsters that day, not only saved his life from the tide of monsters well, but even showed off his skills to win the Golden Core cultivator who was looking for faults in one fell swoop. He only remembered this episode when he passed in front of him, so he casually chatted with the disciple who was on duty with him.

However, no matter how he knew it was impossible to say this in front of Su Jianxing, how did she know?

Just thinking about it, I heard Su Jianxing say: "I was looking for books in the Book Sea Pavilion, and I was standing not far from the door, so I heard it."

Zhong Qi: "..."

Knowing the truth, Zhong Qi could only wish to go back in time and slap her two big mouths who only know how to gossip.Gossiping in front of the Righteous Master, he deserves to be stared at by the Righteous Master.

Zhong Qi felt a little dry in his mouth, looked down at the tea on the table, picked it up and drank it in one gulp, and his thirst was relieved a little.

"Sorry..." Zhong Qi didn't know what else to say besides apologizing.

Su Jianxing shook his head: "I didn't invite you here to ask questions, nor to ask you to apologize."

Zhong Qi was puzzled: "Then Daoist Su is for..."

Su Jianxing: "In addition to the monster tide, I am more concerned about another thing you said."

what else?Why do you have such a big mouth?

Zhong Qi scolded himself ten thousand times in his heart, but still forced himself to be calm on the face, looked at her with a dull face, and waited for her to help him review himself before spreading some stupid gossip.

Su Jianxing said slowly: "You also said at the time that you heard that there was an elder in Shengyuanzong who was haunted by demons and closed the life and death gate."

Zhong Qi looked puzzled, he seemed to have said something relevant at that time, but is there any problem?Why take it out and talk about it separately?
Perhaps it was because his expression was too calm, but it made Su Jianxing laugh a little. She raised her finger and tapped the table lightly, reminding him: "Elders, demons, life and death. There was only one person in the entire Saint Yuanzong who met this requirement. The condition is my biological father, Qu Gufeng."

Zhong Qi stared at her blankly, still not understanding.

Su Jianxing couldn't help but have some other guesses in his heart.She calmly picked up the kettle and refilled Zhong Qi's cup with tea.But his eyes were fixed on the expression on his face, and he said word by word: "This matter was classified as a secret in the entire Saint Yuanzong at that time. I don't know where Daoyou Zhong learned about it?"

boom!
Like a thunderbolt flashed through Zhong Qi's mind.
