Chapter 57 Exchange
Just like the first time I saw Du Lingling, she laughed and ran towards me, her bright red skirt raised high with her steps, as bright and moving as the smile on the girl's face.
The last time I waited in front of Si Yao's house until noon before getting up, the memory is still vivid in my memory. This time Pei Nan woke up in the house, washed up slowly, practiced a set of mental techniques, and then put Xuan Yunpai's body The protector's clothes were thrown into the furnace and burned thoroughly. He found a robe of an ordinary color from the closet and put it on. After eating a few mouthfuls of breakfast, he opened the door and went out.
Unexpectedly, it was late this time, and Si Yao had been sitting in the courtyard for a long time without knowing when.
Xisen and Beilin were still standing beside them. They saw Pei Nan coming out slowly, and cast a dissatisfied glance at Pei Nan.
Pei Nan took two steps forward, and said peacefully, "I'm here waiting for you, Demon Lord."
Now Xisen and Beilin were even more dissatisfied.
But Si Yao looked in an unexpectedly good mood. When he saw Pei Nan, he even smiled very brightly, which made Pei Nan's body get goose bumps.
Si Yao waved to Xi Sen and Bei Lin, gave a few instructions, and waved them back.
Xi Sen was very upset when he left, and even glared at Pei Nan several times, then bowed to Si Yao: "Why doesn't your lord let me go with you, Nanmu has behaved badly recently, he is not a suitable candidate."
Si Yao squinted his eyes and touched his chin, helped Xisen up comfortingly, and said with a smile: "You and Bei Lin are both capable people of this deity, but he and this deity are of great help in this matter, you just obey orders, don't need to say too much .”
Bei Lin and Xi Sen left dissatisfied.
Pei Nan stood with Si Yao for a while, and naturally Pei Nan would not take the initiative to speak. Even if he stood face to face with Si Yao for a day, he would not feel any embarrassment, and now the system was extraordinarily silent when facing Si Yao, Pei Nan It didn't feel noisy at all.
Si Yao tapped the stone table with his fingers rhythmically. After knocking for a while, he raised his head and asked Pei Nan, "I heard that Shen Qingtang practiced the way of ghosts, and there is a helper by his side called 'Black Shadow', Pei Xianjun, is there such a thing?" thing?"
Pei Nan lowered his head and glanced at Si Yao, his expression flat and indifferent as usual: "Master Mozun is wise and powerful, why bother to ask me about such trivial matters. Besides, the relationship between me and Shen Qingtang is like fire and water, do you think I will know? "
Pei Nan is cold by nature, a typical type who doesn't care about troubles and doesn't cause trouble. Now that Shen Qingtang is imprisoned by others, he doesn't know the situation, and the black shadow is refined by Shen Qingtang. people know.
Moreover, Si Yao would ask about such a person who has become a soul, which is very suspicious in itself.
Knowing the two lives, Si Yao has changed a lot, or Pei Nan has never known Si Yao, but judging from Si Yao's viciousness in this life, this must not be a good thing.
Si Yao didn't get the answer, and he couldn't see the slightest anxiety on his face. He clasped his slender fingers on the table again, and smiled as if he didn't care: "Oh... that's right, then I can only ask the person concerned. Ask clearly."
party?
Pei Nan's eyebrows darkened: "Are you going to find Shen Qingtang?"
The system just told him not long ago that Shen Qingtang was imprisoned in the spiritual cave at the back mountain of the Xuanyun sect after his spiritual power was exhausted. There was a seal blessed by the three elders of Xuanyun, and outsiders were not allowed to visit him, regardless of life or death.
Pei Nan died resolutely at that time, since he lost his soul, he could not be reincarnated, and he did not belong to the scope of ghosts, which was equivalent to cutting off Shen Qingtang's last hope.
When hearing this, Pei Nan was not surprised. Shen Qingtang was so paranoid towards him, it was hard to understand anything.
Now that Si Yao was going to look for Shen Qingtang, he was bound to enter Xuanyun. Needless to say, there were obstacles, and what Si Yao meant was to let Pei Nan go with him, which Pei Nan was never willing to do.
Maybe it's been a long time, or it's been paid for by his life, now Pei Nan seldom thinks of when he was in the Xuanyun Sect, and even tries hard not to remind himself of those personnel affairs, and puts them in the corner of his mind together with Shen Qingtang, It's like acting like it never happened.
Hearing what Pei Nan said, Si Yao really looked over, with a smile on his face, and a little frivolous, he shook his finger: "It's not me, but you and me."
Pei Nan said indifferently, "Impossible."
Si Yao was not annoyed when he heard it, he beckoned, and Moxiu at the side lifted a man up, the man was covered with a white cloth from head to tail, not showing at all, his body was hunched and thin under the white cloth, not resembling a human figure .
"This deity kindly took you to return Du Lingling's body to your master, wouldn't Pei Xianjun also want to?"
Pei Nan sneered for a moment, then shook his head: "Si Yao, even though Du Lingling is my junior sister, I feel guilty with her, but you use her to..."
The system that hadn't spoken in front of Si Yao for a long time suddenly spoke, and it was rare and firm, and the voice was very fast: "Xiao Nannan, you are going this time! You have waited for the opportunity for so long, this time if you If you can personally confirm that Shen Qingtang's cultivation in this life cannot be restored, and if you can confirm with Bai Feng that you can imprison Shen Qingtang for a hundred years until death, then the task will be considered complete!"
Pei Nan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly there was some understanding between his brows.
Although the system is not very reliable, it has never deceived him in major matters.Pei Nan has been dormant in the Demon Cultivator's Realm for so long, just waiting for an exact moment to determine the ending. Now that the opportunity has arrived, he almost missed it.
He had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and today he suddenly had hope... This made him feel a little strangely uneasy while being relieved.
Probably because Pei Nan's expression changed too suddenly, Si Yao looked at him for a while, then smiled with the corners of his mouth raised: "What's wrong with Xianjun Pei?"
Pei Nan came back to his senses, regained his expression, and said calmly: "No, since the Demon Venerable insists on doing this, I naturally have nothing to say. But if I go together, there is something that the Demon Venerable needs to agree to."
Si Yao withdrew his hand on the table, squinted his eyes and looked at Pei Nan: "Don't reveal your true identity? What if I don't agree?"
Pei Nan looked at him coldly: "Then what if I tell Shen Qingtang not to mention 'Sombra' to you?"
Si Yao stood up and moved closer to Pei Nan. The two of them were very close and could smell each other's breath.
Pei Nan's face was still very indifferent, even his breathing did not change.
Si Yao sighed: "It would be great if everyone was as smart as you, Senior Brother."
The Xuanyun sect is located in the south, and it was enlightened by the ancestor Xuanyun, and it respects the south.
Du Yixiu had heard that among the children who participated in the trial this time, one of them stood out, with the essence of spiritual roots, excellent understanding, quick-witted and quick, and quite tolerant.
He hadn't accepted a disciple for a long time, so he asked the child's name and called him Pei Nan.
It's like a gift from heaven.
It's a pity that he was not blessed to enjoy this gift after all. On the day Pei Nan decided to commit suicide, Bai Feng came to look for him in the Houshan Ling Mansion, his eyes were still faintly red, and he only said that Pei Nan was dead, which was repaying his kindness.
Since then, his daughter and disciples have all ended in misfortune.
Du Yixiu has been the head teacher of Xuanyun for nearly a hundred years, so he already knew that there was a way out for him. If he wanted to escape, there would be no way to keep him locked up here, but there is no value in this world for him to escape.
Most cultivators believe in their destiny, they cannot get what they ask for. Bai Feng took Du Yixiu to burn a stick of incense for Pei Nan. After returning, Du Yixiu became more and more silent until one day he saw a note in the room.
"It's a pity to get this scene from you. I would like to return Du Lingling to your side. I hope you can exchange it with Shen Qingtang. Think twice."
Date and place are appended.
Si Yao was the only one who could put the note here and knew Du Lingling's whereabouts.
The only place where the Xuanyun Sect detains the most responsible persons is the back mountain. The place where Shen Qingtang is detained is very close to Du Yixiu. The two have no conflict of interest. Shen Qingtang has full spiritual power, so the precautions are not strict.
Du Yixiu naturally knew that since Shen Qingtang was in custody, he had already been tortured in various ways, and people from other sects came to interrogate him every three days, but unfortunately he remained silent and never even cried out in pain, as if he had already been sucked out of his life on one's last legs.
Now suddenly someone wants to save him?
Pei Nan always felt that Si Yao's mind was poisonous, so he insisted on going to Xuanyun Mountain to express his sincerity.
You must know that Xuanyun faction's accusation against Si Yao has never been withdrawn. Until now, the various immortal sects are still discussing the crusade against demon cultivators. It is simply unreasonable for Si Yao to come to the door at this time.
But Si Yao himself wasn't worried, so why should he be worried.
Both of them had lived in the Xuanyun faction for a long time, and they knew exactly where there was defense and where there was no defense. They quickly came out from the back mountain and walked all the way to the agreed place.
Pei Nan didn't want to take Du Lingling with him at all, and Si Yao felt that there were too many people in the way, so he had to carry Du Lingling up the mountain by himself after sending the demon cultivator attendants back at the foot of Xuanyun Mountain.
If Pei Nan hadn't seen the key role of the black shadow on Si Yao before, he could more or less see it now.
Si Yao was willing to take risks in exchange for Hei Ying in exchange for Shen Qingtang, so what was the reason for raising Du Lingling for so long?
The night was dark, and when we arrived at the agreed place, there was still no one there.
Du Yixiu didn't reply to Si Yao all this time, and to be more sure, Du Yixiu had no way to reply to Si Yao, he could only see if he came tonight as promised.
If they don't come, then Pei Nan and Si Yao can only return empty-handed, so Pei Nan has already made preparations before that, even if Si Yao didn't meet Du Yixiu, he still had to find a way to find what the system said thing.
It's just that everything seemed to be going well. After Si Yao and Pei Nan waited for a short time, a person slowly came from the darkness on the other side.
The man had white hair and beard, and was wearing a gray robe. If it wasn't for his slumped demeanor, he might still be able to see a little bit of the figure of the head of the Xuanyun School back then.
Du Yixiu walked over slowly and stopped.
His gaze was not on Si Yao or Pei Nan, but directly on the white cloth roll cover that Si Yao put aside.
The old face was a bit dazed, longing and pain, muddy tears also slipped down from the eyes: "Lingling——"
Du Yixiu took two steps forward, as if he wanted to come over to see Du Lingling, but was easily stopped by Si Yao.
Si Yao's eyebrows and eyes were all smiles, and he seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied. He brushed Du Yixiu away a little, and slightly parted his thin lips: "Master Du, I'm talking about exchanging Shen Qingtang. Look, is there any value for me to come?"
