Chapter 17 Senior Brother Wenren comes in person On
the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, it snowed heavily.
The white clothes were as white as snow, and the fragrance lingered for thousands of miles.
The young man, with a straight figure and elegant demeanor, descended from the sky, smiling and waiting respectfully.
The two female disciples guarding the main hall came up shyly, their faces flushed: "Senior Brother Wenren is here to give gifts again. What did you bring to our master this year?"
One of the braver ones pulled his sleeve: "But is it hidden here?"
Wenren Muqian smiled and stepped back: "My two junior sisters spared me."
Every New Year's Eve, he sent someone to deliver a small gift to each peak master. He usually came in person to Wangyue Peak and Bazhan Peak, and the rest of the peaks were left to other disciples.
Among the sixteen peaks of Xunyang, Wangyue, Huanghua and Xizhu only accepted female disciples. When the girls from Huanghua and Xizhu saw him, they would shyly avoid him or gather together to look at him and laugh.
But the female disciples of Wangyue Peak were bolder.
Wen Renmu smiled and took out a jade box: "This is a three-hundred-year-old Huihuang grass, which is helpful for cultivation. Please pass it to my uncle on my behalf, my two junior sisters."
The timid one looked at her with seductive eyes and said angrily: "What will you do if we don't pass it on?"
Wen Renmu glanced at her: "...What do you want me to do?"
The timid girl blushed, and the atmosphere immediately became ambiguous. The timid one couldn't get a word in and bit her lip.
Wen Renmu cleared his throat and said seriously: "There are still several peaks that we haven't visited yet. I'm troubling my two junior sisters."
After that, he flew into the air in a white robe, nodded and smiled at them. Before leaving, he subconsciously looked around, but he didn't see the lavender figure hidden in his heart, and a trace of melancholy arose spontaneously. When he
arrived at Bazhan Peak, he saw that the hall was grand and magnificent, even more impressive than that of Yurong Peak. It was indeed the richest branch of Qingxu Sword Sect.
He greeted several disciples in front of the hall and said, "Have the three unconscious brothers woke up?"
The leader smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Wenren. They are all awake... but they have been driven down the mountain by Master."
Wenrenmu said embarrassedly, "... Mu Zhiqiu deceived our Tianheng Peak, and so did we..."
Mu Zhiqiu ranked ninth in Tianheng Peak and was one of Wenrenmu's most capable assistants, who was deeply loved by people. This blow made Tianheng Peak almost unable to raise its head.
When he thought of Jun Yanzhi, he felt a little depressed...
The man laughed and said, "Mu Zhiqiu deliberately wanted to deceive, so there is naturally no trace. This matter cannot be blamed on Senior Brother Wenren. Besides, things seem a little strange..."
Wenrenmu raised his eyebrows: "A little strange? What do you mean?"
The man blurted out with some regret, pulled Wenrenmu aside, and whispered: "Senior brothers said that after they were drained of their spiritual energy and their cultivation was wasted, they were thrown into Mu Zhiqiu's ice cave and slowly fainted. But when they were found, they were lying at the junction of Yurong Peak and Hongxiu Peak..."
Wenrenmu looked at him: "You mean..."
"Why did Mu Zhiqiu move their bodies out and be discovered?"
"...It's indeed a little strange."
Did someone move the body out?
"I just feel a little strange, just guessing, Senior Brother Wenren, don't think too much..." The man smiled.
Wen Renmu came back to his senses and quickly responded, "What you said makes sense. Why didn't you report it to your master?"
"...You know why the three brothers wandered in the mountains late at night. It's not a glorious thing. The master got angry when he heard about it, and none of us dared to say anything."
Wen Renmu smiled and said, "Every family has its own problems."
"Isn't that right..."
Wen Renmu was a little dazed after leaving Bazhan Peak.
Jun Yanzhi was patrolling at night and happened to run into Mu Zhiqiu. In a hurry, he happened to hit his vitals and killed him... This matter was too coincidental...
He thought of what Yang Dongye said. The poison needle that stabbed Jun Yanzhi was quenched with the poison of the black ink green snake, which could only cause itching, not death. Why did Jun Yanzhi's injuries suddenly worsen and vomit blood?
This Jun Yanzhi seems to be a little complicated...
or am I thinking too much?
For several months, Tianheng and Huishi have been in constant friction. For the first time in his life, Wen Renmu looked at them straight in the eye. He didn't want to prepare a gift for Huishi Peak this year, but Tianheng was at fault in the matter of Mu Zhiqiu, so he should still do it on the surface, otherwise it would seem petty...
Sending it in person, isn't that a big enough honor?
Finally arriving at the main hall of Huishi Peak, Wen Renmu looked up at the huge empty building and took out the jade box in his arms.
The main halls of other peaks are guarded by people, but only this Huishi Peak is empty and desolate, with an air of poverty and shabbyness...
He touched the jade box and thought about it, then flew towards Jun Yanzhi's residence.
Since he was here, why not take the opportunity to meet him?
After flying for a long time in the mountains, they saw a young man sitting in the vegetable garden, holding a big turtle and feeding it cabbage. Hearing someone flying in the sky, the young man looked up at him, his face was handsome and pleasant, and he seemed a little surprised.
This young man is new, and he and Jun Yanzhi are working together to solve Mu Zhiqiu's matter... Remember his last name is Lu?
Wen Renmu flew down, lowered his eyes, and said to the young man: "Junior Brother Lu."
Wen Jing stood up slowly: "Senior Brother Wenren."
Isn't Wen Renmu at odds with Huishi Peak? Why is he here? To challenge? To provoke? To demonstrate? This feeling of being high and mighty...
"...I want to go visit Junior Brother Jun. How do I get to his residence?"
Wen Jing hesitated, then held the big turtle and said, "...I'll take you there. Follow me."
"Thank you."
Flying side by side in the air, Wen Renmu looked at the turtle and said, "How old is your big turtle?"
The big turtle looked at Wen Renmu and lay motionless on Wen Jing's chest.
"...I don't know."
"It looks quite old, but its spiritual intelligence hasn't been awakened yet?"
Wen Jing silently touched the turtle's head: "...This is Senior Brother Jun's spiritual beast." It's just that he is raising it completely.
Wen Renmu said indifferently, "...Didn't Junior Brother Jun ask someone to take a look? He's already an adult, but his spiritual intelligence hasn't been awakened. He's so stupid. How can we help him practice and fight?"
Wen Jing was a little unhappy: "This turtle is cute because it looks stupid and dumb - not all monsters have to be useful to be raised."
For example, the python still has a bad attitude and shows its fangs at every turn, but he still sticks to it warmly...
Wen Renmu frowned slightly.
No one dared to talk to him like this in Tianheng Peak.
He came to a stone house. The snow in front of the door was swept clean. There were a few green pines at the door. The branches were pressed by the fallen snow, and a spring was still flowing.
A man's voice came from the house: "Why are you here today? Aren't you going to the vegetable garden?"
As he spoke, a man in a green shirt walked out of the door. He was in his early twenties, with a dark gray belt tied around his waist, and his whole body was plain. The collar of his shirt was inadvertently opened slightly, and his slender figure could be seen faintly, revealing a few strands of charming beauty.
Wen Jing was slightly stunned, staring at him.
Jun Yanzhi raised his head and saw the two of them, his eyebrows wrinkled. He pulled his collar calmly, and the seductive air disappeared, his temperament was gentle and distant, and he returned to his usual angel-like appearance.
Wen Renmu felt that something just passed by in a flash, and he couldn't catch it. He frowned and ignored the discomfort in his heart, and said politely: "Is Jun-shi brother feeling better?"
Jun Yanzhi smiled faintly: "Much better... Senior Brother Wenren came to my house in person, which makes me feel guilty, please come in and tell me." He leaned aside.
Wen Renmu smiled and walked into the room, looking around.
At the door, Jun Yanzhi looked at Wen Jing and said, "Are you going back to the vegetable garden?"
"Yes, the work is not done yet."
"Go ahead."
Wen Jing looked at Wen Renmu in the room, held up two fingers, and had a sinister look on his face.
This was the secret signal taught to him by Gui Xinbi: Do you want to call the second senior brother over?
Once the second senior brother showed up, it was a life-and-death battle.
Jun Yanzhi shook his head: "Go ahead."
Wen Jing turned around and was about to leave with the big turtle in his arms. Jun Yanzhi lowered his head and said, "...will you come back later?"
His voice was not loud, and Wen Jing's cultivation was low, so he did not hear it and flew away.
Jun Yanzhi's lips were pursed into a straight line.
He closed the door and said softly to the man in white in the room: "Senior Brother Wenren, please sit down."
Wen Renmu watched silently. The room was simply furnished, clean and tidy, with a few spiritual herbs by the window, a vase and a few books on the desk...it was still quite shabby...
Jun Yanzhi made tea for him: "Baiji tea, a little bitter, please drink it together, Senior Brother Wenren."
Wen Renmu picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and said sourly: "...It's okay." But he put down the tea bowl and refused to drink it.
He took out a jade box: "This contains wild grass, which is helpful for cultivation. Please give it to your eldest senior brother for me."
"Okay." Jun Yanzhi put away the jade box and sat down. "Brother Wenren, is there anything else you want to ask for your visit today?"
Wen Renmu pondered for a moment and said, "There is indeed one thing I don't understand. Why not ask Brother Jun's opinion?"
"Brother Wenren, please tell me."
"According to the disciples of Bazhan Peak, after they lost their spiritual energy and their cultivation, they were placed in an underground snow cave and passed out. But when they were later found, they were between Yurong and Hongxiu Peaks. What do you think happened?"
Jun Yanzhi paused.
He said calmly, "Brother Wenren
, what do you think?" Wen Renmu looked at him: "Do you think someone has known about Mu Zhiqiu for a long time?"
Jun Yanzhi glanced at him indifferently.
Wen Renmu was suspicious of himself.
Although he knew about it, he didn't meddle in it. The bodies of the three people were discovered, which led to the Qingxu Sword Sect patrolling the mountain, which was harmful to him.
Could it be that someone was secretly using a knife to kill people?
Jun Yanzhi gritted his teeth slightly.
He didn't think much about it. Could it be that he fell into someone's trap?
Wen Renmu said, "Junior brother Jun ?
" Jun Yanzhi pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe someone discovered that Mu Zhiqiu was practicing magic, but didn't dare to show up, so he dug out the three bodies and hoped that someone would solve it?"
Wen Renmu nodded slightly, "Who is this person?" "
There are countless disciples in the Qingxu Sword Sect who are timid and bullied, and it's hard to say who did it."
"...Junior brother Jun has a point, but I always feel that the eighteenth day of the last month was too coincidental, as if... it was arranged."
"This... there is no coincidence in the world."
Wen Renmu pondered for a long time, stood up and said: "Today's chat with Jun Junior Brother has really benefited me a lot. It's just a little rushed, we can continue another day when we have time."
Jun Yanzhi smiled slightly: "I'll accompany you anytime."
Finally seeing Wen Renmu off, Jun Yanzhi looked at the sky outside the window, came to the back mountain, and slowly took off his clothes.
