Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Came inexplicably, and left inexplicably.

During the whole trip, Chen Jisheng felt bewildered.

After leaving the yamen, he took Yishui's subordinates to walk on Qingshi Street in Qingzhou Prefecture.There are people coming and going around, and there are many discussions.

"I heard that Master Guoshi and Xuenv had a fight recently."

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. There was an unprecedented snowstorm near Yishan that day, and it almost buried my ox cart."

"Who won in the end?"

"I don't know. But Xuenv should still be alive. Otherwise, how could it be so cold in Yishan in summer."

"..."

Chen Jisheng didn't expect that such an earth-shattering event would happen outside the yamen of Qingzhou Prefecture during the few days he stayed in it.

But he didn't understand for a while, why the national teacher suddenly went to Yishan to deal with Xuenv.

After all, in his memory, when the disaster happened in Qingzhou Mansion, Snow Maiden was still driving the ice crane, fighting against the Nine Baby Snake Demon, and rescued many people and monks.

Just as he was about to step forward to inquire about the situation, the corner of his eye suddenly glanced at two unremarkable figures in the crowd.

One of them was a young man wearing a shawl and a blue shirt.

This person is wearing a black half-face mask, which looks ordinary at first glance, and people will ignore his existence when they turn their heads.

But Chen Jisheng's gaze stayed on him for a long time, and he always felt that this person looked inexplicably familiar.

Beside the young man in the blue shirt, there is a woman in white clothes like snow and wearing a fence.

A misty gauze covered her face, her demeanor was cold and alienated.

She looked clearly in the hustle and bustle of the city, but she felt like she was floating above the clouds.

At this moment, the corners of the young man's mouth suddenly turned up, and he smiled at Chen Jisheng.

His smile was as bright as the sun, making Chen Jisheng a little dazed for a moment.

When Chen Jisheng came back to his senses, the young man in blue and the woman in white had disappeared into the vast crowd, and they were never to be seen again.

Chen Jisheng frowned, trying to think carefully about the identities of these two people.

However, the memories left in his mind disappeared silently like a cloud of smoke.

"Master Chen, what's the matter?" Wang Yang who was next to him asked with some doubts when he saw that he stopped suddenly.

"It's nothing." Chen Jisheng shook his head, "Maybe I misidentified the person."

…………

"Princess Zhaoning called Lord Chen to Qingzhou Mansion, and she really wanted to use him as a bait to lure me into the bait," Gu Xu took Xuenv, left Qingzhou Mansion Street, turned into an alley, and whispered to himself, "Fortunately nothing happened to him."

Xue Nu turned her head and glanced at him.

She has always been simple-minded, and has lived on the uninhabited Xuefeng for many years.

For her, human intrigues and conspiracies are too complicated.

She only knew that the Daqi court was trying every means to target Gu Xu.

And Gu Xu's blood is the panacea for her to restrain her instincts and maintain her sanity.Therefore, she did not want Gu Xu to make any mistakes.

"Where is the young master going next?" After a moment of silence, she asked.

"Of course I'll continue on my way," Gu Xu smiled, "However, I haven't reached the realm of a saint, so I can't travel through space continuously. So it will take a few days to reach Kunlun."

Having said that, he paused, looking at Xue Nu: "If I sneak into the crowd now, can you find me?"

At this moment, Gu Xu not only wore a mask, but also added layer after layer of restrictions on himself, including anti-divination, anti-tracking, blurred vision, etc.

Ever since he was intercepted by the floating flying boats of Princess Zhaoning and the Grand Master of Qi, he didn't trust the concealment ability of the mask as much as before.

Xuenv looked him over from head to toe.

He shook his head first, then nodded again.

Gu Xu's methods are indeed enough to deceive the strong ones at the saint level.

But she never recognized him by his face, or any detection spells.

"Your smell hasn't changed." She said lightly.

Hearing her words, Gu Xu smiled and shook his head.

He shouldn't have asked the ghost such a question.

…………

After leaving Qingzhou, the two began to use the "star disk" to drive westward, and soon arrived in Jingzhou.

During the recovery period of his true essence, Gu Xu originally wanted to go to the hidden deep mountains and old forests to rest.

But Xuenv's eyes stayed on the bustling Jingzhou City for a long time.

She lived in a deep boudoir when she was a child and rarely went out; after becoming a ghost, she lived alone in Xuefeng for nearly 20 years.

The breath of fireworks in this world is undoubtedly a fresh sight to her.

She stretched out her hand towards Gu Xu, but withdrew it again.

Stretched out and retracted again.

After hesitating a few times like this, she finally tugged on Gu Xu's sleeve cautiously, and said softly, "My lord, can we...can we go into the city to have a look?"

Gu Xu raised his eyebrows slightly.

A ghost with the strength of a saint showed a hesitant posture like a little girl in front of him, which surprised him a bit.

His first reaction was to refuse her request.

But he thought about it again, no matter how hidden the deep mountains and old forests are, they are not as safe as Xuenv's side.

In case Xue Nu gets annoyed, the consequences may be more terrible than being caught by the Daqi court.

To be arrested by the court, at most, one would die.

If he dies at the hand of Xue Nu, his body and soul will become her food, and he will never be able to escape.

And she might lose control and cause a terrible disaster in the world.

"Okay." He agreed.

When he just finished speaking, the corners of Xue Nu's lips seemed to be slightly raised, and then quickly returned to the original ice-cold appearance.

It's like an illusion.

Then, Gu Xu closed and opened his eyes, muttering words.

"I tried to disguise our identities with the way of cause and effect," he said to Xuenv, "If anyone asks, you can say that your name is 'Gu Qingru' and my name is 'Gu Zhixing'. My cousin. Because I heard that Jiange is recruiting new disciples recently, I want to try it there."

Xue Nu let out a "hmm" and kept his words in her heart.

After hesitating for a while, she said again: "These two names are good. Did you make them up?"

"Yes."

"Do they have a provenance?"

"There are two poems from hearsay, one is 'Ask where the canal is so clear, so that there is a source of fresh water', and the other is 'What comes on paper is shallow, but I know that this matter has to be practiced'."

Xuenv recited these two lines of poems several times softly, and said with emotion: "No wonder your poems are better than mine."

Gu Xu didn't understand her way of thinking for a moment, and asked, "Why does Miss Lu think so?"

"Young Master, you have traveled all over the world, and you have seen all kinds of things in the world," Xuenv said seriously, "and my so-called 'poetic talent' is all from books.

"Compared to the young master, it is naturally a bit more craftsmanship, and a bit less free and easy."
