Half-life immortal

Chapter 130 Demon Elimination Festival, The Girl's Sense of Urgency

Shen Jiarou said eloquently: "Didn't you come early? Didn't you make up your mind to find some ignorant girls here to deceive people's feelings? I knew you had no good intentions."

"Oh, Senior Sister, you've wronged me to death! I really don't have that kind of heart!" Situ Xiu hurriedly yelled, he really planned to find a place to practice in seclusion, who called Xue Qinglan what a coincidence What else can he do?It's not his fault!
Shen Jiarou knew everything about him, she had already figured out his temperament, she raised her head and said, "Don't need to say too much, seeing you talking and laughing with Junior Sister but not telling her your identity, isn't it a trick? Okay, you Situ Xiu, all the tricks are on my little junior sister."

Situ Xiu really couldn't argue this time, Xue Qinglan was very puzzled, how could such an eloquent person become dumb and eat Coptis chinensis after meeting a senior sister?This is really strange, the elder sister seems to be his nemesis, could it be that she has left some psychological shadow on him in the past?By the way, the elder sister just said that he once pursued her, and I don't know how it went, it must be very miserable... Haha, I'm a little curious, I don't know if this guy's deflated look was funny before.

Maybe it was because the acquaintance with Situ Xiu was a little weird, even now that Xue Qinglan knew that he was the "respectable" second brother Situ Xiu, she still couldn't feel that kind of reverence in her heart, and she still regarded him more as that In order to make her happy, she is a fool who cheats people with sky-high priced treasures.

But speaking of it, the relationship between the senior sister and the second senior brother is strange...

Xue Qinglan suddenly remembered that she had indeed heard someone talk about Yunyun, the elder sister and the second elder brother, because she was so focused on cultivation that she didn't take some gossip to heart, and she didn't want to find out such an embarrassing situation when she met her now.

Shen Jiarou ignored Situ Xiu, and turned to whisper to Xue Qinglan, "Little Junior Sister, why are you with Xiao Xiuzi? You came to Jiangdu alone?"

"No...not." Xue Qinglan couldn't help feeling nervous when she faced Shen Jiarou, she shook her head, and said, "I'm with Senior Brother Xu Shili and the others."

Shen Jiarou naturally knew about Xu Shili, and said clearly, "Oh, it's that kid Xu Shili. Did you go down the mountain with him?"

Xue Qinglan shook her head again, and said, "I was originally with senior brother Xiqiuzhi and... senior brother Feng Yutian, but something happened on the way."

When she mentioned the name Feng Yutian, she couldn't help but pause for a moment, the appearance of Feng Yutian appeared in her mind inexplicably, even she couldn't explain it clearly.It's okay when it comes to other things, but it's about Feng Yutian, she will suddenly think of a lot.It was like remembering that on the stone bridge just now, when she spoke righteously, his expression was as indifferent as ever, but there seemed to be a trace of loss in his eyes, is it an illusion?
Or, even if she has stated her position to draw a clear line with him, it is still difficult to regard him as an ordinary senior brother in a short time?

Shen Jiarou patted her on the shoulder and said: "It's not a problem to stand on the street and talk, there is a restaurant over there, let's go there and talk about it, and it's just a good time to talk about the purpose of our coming here with you, Junior Sister, now In this world, you should also know something."

Xue Qinglan was still struggling with Feng Yutian's matter, but when she suddenly heard her say that, she couldn't help feeling tense, wondering what the elder sister said so seriously, what was it?Could it be related to the catastrophe mentioned by Yue Qingwu inadvertently?
Shen Jiarou hooked her fingers towards Situ Xiu, her smile was extremely charming, so charming, but the words in her mouth made Situ Xiu shudder again: "Little Xiuzi, since you are here, from now on, all the expenses of my little sister and I in Jiangdu will be borne by you." You go out."

What else could Situ Xiu say?He could only sigh repeatedly, blaming him for pursuing his senior sister who shouldn't have courted death back then. He thought that after entering Yaoguang Peak, which is full of beautiful women, he would usher in an extremely beautiful, happy and happy fairy life, but in fact it was an extremely miserable, bleak and bitter life. ah.Ever since she was defined as a dangerous pervert by the elder sister, she has controlled all the female disciples in Yaoguang Peak. If Situ Xiu talks to girls, he will suffer a tragic fate. Talk about pale.

Xue Qinglan couldn't help laughing at his deflated appearance. Although it seemed like such a relationship, she always felt that the relationship between them was good, and they were really a bit like siblings.

She was carried by Shen Jiarou to the restaurant, sat down in a quiet private room on the second floor, and ordered a cup of tea.The environment here is good, no one disturbs you around, it is very suitable for conversation.

During this period of time, Xue Qinglan sorted out roughly how to explain the matter to Shen Jiarou during this period of time. After thinking about it, she decided to omit most of the details and focus on the key points.She remembered that Yi Ting started the school about two months earlier than her, and the senior sister and the second senior brother have been down the mountain for a long time, so they probably haven't seen Yi Ting.Since she doesn't know her, it's easy to handle. She doesn't need to cover up too much, just explain the truth.

Soon she roughly explained how she arrived at Yongchang, then accidentally fell into the Yin Ruins, met Xu Shili and others, and then came to Jiangdu until now, without adding any details.

"So that's how it is." Shen Jiarou was not overly surprised when she heard what she said, but said with emotion: "Little Junior Sister, your journey has been quite uneventful, but it's a blessing in disguise, and your cultivation has also been greatly improved. , and got Tianshui. According to what you said, Xu Shili and the others are also in Jiangdu?"

Xue Qinglan nodded, and said, "Yes, we live in the inn at the corner of the city. Senior sister, where are you staying?"

Shen Jiarou crossed her legs comfortably, and said: "I just came here not long ago, and I haven't decided where to stay. I also wanted to stay in a hotel, but...forget it, there are too many people over there, so I won't go with you." Join in the fun."

"Oh..." Xue Qinglan didn't show any obvious disappointment, and secretly thought: From the tone of the elder sister, it can be heard that she doesn't like Xu Shili very much. Could it be that she doesn't like Xu Shili? ?Is it because of this reason that she didn't go to stay in the hotel with them, or is there some other reason?
Shen Jiarou said to Situ Xiu carelessly, "Little Xiuzi, what about you?"

Situ Xiu said helplessly: "Junior sister also said just now that I decided to leave the customs early just because I bumped into my junior sister by chance." Will run into Senior Sister Shen so early.If I knew it earlier, I should have suffocated to death in the cellar and couldn't come out. I could have had a few more months of good time, and it was all ruined...

Shen Jiarou nodded in approval, and didn't say much, instead she said to Xue Qinglan with a smile: "Junior Sister, you just said that you want to learn dance from others, right? Then learn it hard."

Xue Qinglan asked suspiciously: "Elder Sister, didn't you just want to tell me the reason why you came to Jiangdu? Aren't you going to tell me?"

She just said that she should know some things, which made Xue Qinglan very concerned after hearing it, and kept it in her heart, and hearing Shen Jiarou's words meant that she didn't seem to be going to tell her, it really made people feel itchy.The more you say half, the more people want to get to the bottom of it.

"Hmm..." Shen Jiarou pondered for a moment, and seeing Xue Qinglan blinking her big eyes seeking knowledge, she couldn't help but chuckle, and said, "Okay, it's actually related to the recent major events in the human world. I believe you have also heard about it." Well, the major immortal gates in the human world disappeared inexplicably, some famous entire mountain gates disappeared, and some small sects also blocked the mountain gates strangely. Although we have no way of knowing the reasons for this, it seems that something big happened gone."

Xue Qinglan also knew that although she hadn't been able to see the eliminated Taiqing Mountain with her own eyes, she had heard about this matter several times in the past few days, so naturally she would not question it.

Shen Jiarou continued: "At the same time, there are signs of monster races appearing everywhere in the human world. Many monsters that are not easy to appear have appeared one after another, and even appeared in towns. In the past few days, mortals have been caused Great panic."

Xue Qinglan understood for a while, no wonder they encountered water monsters by the Yujiang River. It stands to reason that water monsters like Yu Wenlian would not easily leave the river and go ashore, let alone occupying land to lure passers-by, hunting and fishing. Talent is their way of life, which is really weird.It turned out that it wasn't just the water monster they encountered that was strange, similar phenomena happened everywhere in the human world, as if the monsters in the human world had rioted inexplicably.

She couldn't help but said with emotion: "Ordinary mortals can't deal with monsters, so there must be heavy casualties."

Shen Jiarou's expression suddenly became weird, and said: "That's not true. Speaking of it, those monsters seem to be led by someone, and they didn't rush to kill ordinary humans unscrupulously. On the contrary, some immortal cultivators who are alone are more likely to be hunted and killed by them .”

"Uh..." Xue Qinglan was speechless for a while, thinking that she had planned to be a lone ranger not long ago, but before the plan was put into practice, such a strange piece of news came: Demons like to hunt and kill lonely cultivators?Be good, if Xue Qinglan really left these reliable senior brothers and sisters, wouldn't she be devoured by monsters in the blink of an eye, leaving no bones left behind?

Fortunately, fortunately... She couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, she was not stupid enough to really wander around the rivers and lakes by herself, otherwise she would die without knowing how she died. The world of immortal cultivators is very dangerous, and she is smart but cannot be a magic weapon. No matter how smart she is If you run into a big monster, you will die.

Shen Jiarou didn't see any fear, maybe her strength was different from ordinary solo cultivators, even if she encountered a big monster, as long as she wasn't besieged, she was sure to be able to retreat unscathed.

She said lightly: "The wisdom of monsters is not weaker than that of humans, but the birth of monsters is more difficult, so the monster clan has always been scattered and does not pose much threat, but I have to admit that monsters at the same level are stronger than us immortal cultivators. There are too many, if there really appears a big monster capable of leading the monster clan as we speculated, it will be a disaster for the entire human world."

Will it be so?
Xue Qinglan felt chilly all over for no reason, and her scalp tingled when she thought of the birth of a peerless monster.God, she, Xue Qinglan, just intends to be a very, very ordinary little immortal cultivator honestly, and she is already very happy if she has nothing to do to deceive people, why should she encounter such troublesome times...

Situ Xiu honestly sat by the side without saying a word, looked at Xue Qinglan, and wanted to say something, but under Shen Jiarou's lustful power formed over the years, he could only admit his cowardice and continue to pretend to be dumb.

Shen Jiarou continued: "There are quite a few immortal cultivators in the human world, of course most of them are casual cultivators, but casual cultivators are also a powerful force, and this gathering in Jiangdu was led by the Da Luo Dynasty. There is still four or five months before the event will be held, but Jiangdu has already gathered a lot of immortal cultivators, most of whom were chased and killed by the demon clan from the outside world, at least in Jiangdu city. The family dare not enter lightly, so it has naturally become a refuge for weak immortal cultivators."

Xue Qinglan blinked her eyes, heard a familiar name, and said, "Da Luo? Demon-elimination event?"

She thought to herself that this is not Da Luo's imperial capital. Da Luo's imperial capital should be in ruins now. Why choose Jiangdu?
Shen Jiarou smiled and said, "You still don't know? Hehehe, I understand, the guy who brought you here was Xu Shili, right?"

Xue Qinglan thought about it carefully, and it was really like this. It was Xu Shili who suddenly decided to come to Jiangdu after seeing the biography of the Jade Bird that day. She had always been curious about what was written in the biography of the Jade Bird that day that made him change his mind in an instant. .

When she thought of this, she told Shen Jiarou about this matter, and Shen Jiarou smiled unabated, and said: "It's nothing strange, that kid is different from us, and he came to Jiangdu for the same purpose as ours. But you don't have to delve into it, Although he is a busy man, he is still good to his classmates."

Xue Qinglan became more and more puzzled. Just now she thought that Shen Jiarou must have some quarrel with Xu Shili, but she seemed to want to praise Xu Shili in a blink of an eye. What is her attitude?It's so unpredictable.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for the time being. Anyway, you will gradually figure out the messy relationship between these brothers and sisters in the future.What she is more concerned about now is the so-called exorcism event, so she asked: "Elder Sister, what is the exorcism event like?"

Shen Jiarou shrugged irresponsibly, and said: "Who knows, anyway, it definitely won't lead us to copy a demon clan's stronghold, because no one has been able to figure out what is going on with this turmoil. But since Da Luo has the courage to expand the recruitment of heroes, and he should have his consideration, we will wait and see what happens, and if the situation is not right, we will slip away!"

She said it very easily, glanced at Situ Xiu winkingly, and said with a coquettish smile, "Don't worry, Junior Sister, even if something goes wrong, there will be little Xiu to help us in the rear."

Situ Xiu's face was full of black lines, besides a wry smile, what else could he say, anyway, in Shen Jiarou's eyes, he was just a free laborer who could be sent to work at will.

Meeting the senior sister Shen Jiarou and the second senior brother Situ Xiu was just a small episode in Xue Qinglan's life, but they brought her extremely important information about the event of exorcising demons.She, Xue Qinglan, likes to be lively. Although it seems that this grand demon extermination event is a little dangerous, but if she has a reliable senior sister and a not-so-reliable second senior brother... it's okay, and she is in Jiangdu , some things cannot be avoided, the most urgent thing now is to quickly improve your cultivation base, so that you can become stronger as soon as possible, so that you can be alone, at least you can't die inexplicably in this catastrophe.

Talking about the time of sunset with Shen Jiarou, Xue Qinglan felt that it was almost time, so she resigned and returned to the inn. Shen Jiarou and Situ Xiu also decided on a temporary place to stay. Anyway, they are all in Jiangdu City, not far from each other. If something happens, Xue Qinglan can still come and join the two of them.

What she thinks in her heart now is to learn dance skills with Yue Qingwu from tomorrow, and to finish her sword dance one day earlier, so as to have a skill to save her life.After meeting Shen Jiarou, her mood suddenly became more urgent. She must learn the dance skills within four months, otherwise Jiangdu will be in chaos after four months, and it will be too late.

As she was walking towards the inn, she was secretly angry, and suddenly she stopped, thinking that this is wrong!Now that you have decided to learn as soon as possible, you should strike while the iron is hot, and stop dawdling!
Thinking of this, she turned around resolutely, and walked towards Yue Qingwu's predetermined residence regardless of the getting late.

"So it's Snow Maiden, why are you here? Didn't the people from Baijiang Tower notify you?"

Xue Qinglan came to the mansion where Yue Qingwu lived temporarily, and met Wen Liu through communication.Wen Liu's identity is equivalent to Yue Qingwu's flower protector, so if he wants to see Yue Qingwu, he must pass Wen Liu's test.But Wen Liu won't make it difficult for her, because Yue Qingwu has already promised to teach Xue Qinglan, and Wen Liu can only fully support what Yue Qingwu wants to do.

Xue Qinglan said with a smile: "No, I just miss sister Yue, let's see if there is anything that needs my help."

Wen Liu praised: "It's rare for you to be so caring, but we've already finished our work. You came at the right time, and the young lady is still in the room before she falls asleep. I'll take you to see her."

Originally, Wen Liu had some complaints about Xue Qinglan, he always felt that Yue Qingwu's acceptance of apprentices was too hasty.But since it was Yue Qingwu's decision, of course he couldn't object, but with Xue Qinglan's sudden visit tonight, and that small mouth that seemed to be smeared with honey, it was still very easy to win Wen Liu's favor. of.

Xue Qinglan has long discovered that Wen Liu has a strange feeling for Yue Qingwu that surpasses that of a master and servant. Flattering Wen Liu may not be effective, but if he cares about Yue Qingwu, he will definitely be very happy. This trick has been tried and tested.Since she wanted to learn dance skills from Yue Qingwu, it would definitely be worthwhile to please Wen Liu by the way. Besides, speaking human words to people and ghosts to ghosts is also a good habit she has developed for a long time.
