The stars moved, the moon set, and the sun rose. Time passed quietly, and after a few more days, there were still 21 days until the next full moon.
…
That morning, when Lu Chen opened the door and walked out of the wooden house, he saw a figure that he had not expected at all standing outside the house. He could not help but be surprised, and said, "Why are you here?"
On the flat ground of the Flying Goose Platform, White Lotus was standing there, looking at the beautiful scenery around her, and said, "I did not expect this Flying Goose Platform to have such scenery, it is really enviable. When will I be able to have such a cave abode? "
Lu Chen snorted, walked over and stretched, then said, "Stop pretending, the strange peak you are on now is the real paradise, the Immortal's Secret Realm. In the entire Kunlun Party, only Yuanying Zhenren has the right to set foot there. Would you care about a mere Flying Goose Platform like this? "
White Lotus smiled, and suddenly saw a black dog's head poking out from behind Lu Chen sneakily to look in their direction. White Lotus immediately laughed, and waved to Atsu, as if she was very happy, and said, "Atsu, come here."
Atsu looked at White Lotus, and without a word, shrank back, and hid in the room with its tail between its legs, without the slightest hesitation.
White Lotus was stunned, and looked a little awkward on the spot. After a moment, she slowly put down her hand, then laughed dryly, and said to Lu Chen, "This black dog does not seem to like me very much."
Lu Chen also laughed, and said, "Although Atsu is stupid, sometimes it will have a flash of inspiration."
White Lotus stared at him, and said, "Are you mocking me?"
Lu Chen did not intend to answer her, and only shrugged, then said, "Miss Bai, with your current status, I am afraid it is not appropriate for you to come to the Flying Goose Platform so rashly, right?"
Bai Lian said indifferently, "What's wrong with that? I don't think it's a big deal. Besides, although this is Su Qingjun's residence, as long as I don't enter her residence, I can walk around the Flying Goose Terrace as I please. There's no way the Kunlun Sect will forbid me from doing so."
Of course, such a ban was impossible. The Flying Goose Platform was beautiful, but it was really not a restricted area. It was just that most people in the sect respected Su Qingjun, so naturally they would not come here, so the Flying Goose Platform became Su Qingjun's private place.
Of course, Lu Chen wouldn't argue with Bai Lian over this, so he simply waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't waste your breath on me. Since you've come to the Soaring Goose Terrace, you must be looking for Su Qingjun, right? I will help you to call her. "
As he spoke, Lu Chen turned around, but a look of amusement flashed across his face. He thought to himself that it was still early. Once Su Qingjun was woken up, she would not be in a good mood. At that time, there might be a good show to watch.
Unexpectedly, White Lotus stopped Lu Chen, and said, "No need to go, I am not here to look for her, I am here to look for you."
Lu Chen stopped in his tracks, and after a soft sigh, he turned around and looked at White Lotus.
White Lotus looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and there seemed to be some slyness in her expression.
Lu Chen shook his head, and walked over. At the same time, he softened his voice, and said with a bitter smile, "I say, didn't we agree before that well water does not interfere with the river water does not interfere with the well water water does not interfere with the river water. You are now a noble disciple of a True Monarch, and you also have a five pillar bone that is rarely seen in a thousand years. With such a noble identity, the entire Kunlun Party has to coax and flatter you. You suddenly came to find a useless odd-job disciple like me, what do you want me to do? If someone knows something, I am afraid that there will be countless people coming to investigate me tomorrow. "
White Lotus laughed, and said, "Why, are you very afraid of being investigated?"
Lu Chen asked in reply, "Then are you afraid?"
White Lotus did not speak.
After a while, Lu Chen said, "So, it is better for us not to have any contact. You live your good life, and I will drag out my life to be my odd-job disciple. Isn't that good for both of us?"
White Lotus looked at him, and said, "Originally, I also thought so. I have never been bothered to care about your matters. But there is one thing that I must ask you clearly. "
Lu Chen frowned, and said, "What is it?"
White Lotus stared at his eyes, and said, "Do you know the 'Blood Feeding Technique' that is passed down among the shamans of the southern barbarian tribes?"
Lu Chen was startled, and then his eyebrows relaxed. It seemed that he had thought of many things in an instant, and also figured out the reason for White Lotus's sudden visit today. But on the surface, he still shook his head, and then replied with abnormal firmness, "I don't know."
White Lotus pointed to the wooden house, and said, "But I feel the traces of the Blood Feeding Technique from that dog."
Lu Chen almost did not have the slightest hesitation, and directly said, "You are wrong."
White Lotus looked at Lu Chen for a long time, and after a while, suddenly smiled, and said, "I feel that you are becoming more and more interesting. It seems that you are hiding more secrets than me."
Lu Chen's eyes flashed, and said with a smile, "If that is the case … how about we make a deal?"
"What do you say?" White Lotus' face that seemed to be innocent and flawless, at this moment, looked like the smartest and cunning fox in the world.
Lu Chen said, "Secrets for secrets. You tell me a secret, and I will tell you a secret. This way, everyone will be comfortable, how about it?"
White Lotus thought for a while, and said, "I don't feel too good. You look honest and sincere, but in fact, you are full of evil tricks. I don't trust you."
Lu Chen sneered, and said, "Hey, I am not familiar with you, so don't randomly accuse me."
White Lotus smiled, and said, "Others can't see it, but how can I not know? In the past, you lied to that Yi Xin girl, and now you are going to lie to this Su Qingjun, right?"
Lu Chen laughed, and said, "Your ability to accuse others is not bad. Could it be a powerful method that Hakushin Jinkun taught you?"
White Lotus pointed at Lu Chen's chest, and said with a smile, "You know in your heart that what I said is true. Otherwise, do you dare to swear that you have never lied to those two girls?"
After a pause, she said thoughtfully, and said, "You are so treacherous. I feel that it is too dangerous to do business with you. I can't do it."
Lu Chen laughed heartily, but his eyes looked a little cold.
White Lotus came just like that, and after chatting with Lu Chen for a while, she left. Just as she said, she had no interest in Su Qingjun. It was just that the seemingly young girl, even after she left, still made Lu Chen frown and ponder for a long time.
To be honest, he had seen many people in Kunlun, but the one who gave him the greatest pressure was not those powerful Zhenren, but this little girl who was hiding in the shadows.
On her body, there seemed to be countless secrets, hidden in the darkness.
… …
Could it be that White Lotus was an Evil Sect spy?
Lu Chen looked at White Lotus's receding figure, suddenly thought of this question, and then gave himself a fright. Recalling all the information that he knew about White Lotus, he thought about it and still felt that this little girl might be rebellious, might have a lot of secrets, but at such a young age, she was already shouldering a heavy responsibility. To enter a prestigious sect like Kunlun Party as a spy, she could not make any big mistakes.
This kind of thing did not seem to be something that a little girl could do, even if White Lotus looked young and mature, even if her talent was so outstanding.
If it was possible, Lu Chen did not want to pay attention to White Lotus at all. He was just an ordinary odd-job disciple, and there was a world of difference between him and White Lotus. On the contrary, if the news that White Lotus was paying attention to him spread, it was equivalent to the entire Kunlun Party starting to pay attention to him.
This kind of situation, for a shadow, was simply a situation of absolute death.
But if she was not a spy of the Devil Cult, how could Bai Lian's secret be explained? How could a little girl be able to display the secret sorcery of the southern barbarians? She was just a little girl.
Everything seemed to be getting more and more confusing.
After discovering that White Lotus had come to Flying Goose Platform, Atsu had been obediently staying in the wooden house and had no intention of going out. It seemed that they were particularly afraid of the little girl.
It was only after White Lotus had left that Atsu seemed to suddenly breathe a sigh of relief, and its whole body relaxed.
Lu Chen walked back to the wooden house and looked at Atsu. His eyes flickered slightly, as if he was lost in thought.
…
For the rest of the day, it returned to its original peaceful state. Lu Chen did his own work, and then at dusk, Su Qingjun came out for a walk. The two of them stood by the cliff for a while, chatting, and then before the sky turned dark, they each said their goodbyes and returned to their own houses and caves.
The night was very dark, there were no stars or moon, only the cold wind blowing coldly, as if it was the so-called dark and windy night.
Lu Chen sat quietly in front of the window, looking at the dark sky amidst the rustling pines, until midnight.
It was already late at night, everything on earth seemed to have fallen asleep, even the mountains had fallen into a deep slumber. In the wooden house, Atsu curled up at his feet, sleeping quietly, looking exceptionally at ease.
Lu Chen quietly stood up, his whole body suddenly slanted, he did not even open the wooden door and just strangely slid out of the window, and then turned over and closed the window.
Under the night sky, he blended into the darkness, drifting away into the distance.
That mysterious Evil Sect spy had left a mysterious symbol on the big tree in that forest, although Lu Chen could understand it and guessed that it meant to meet on the night of the next full moon, but before that, he would not let go of other suspicious clues.
Perhaps that symbol was just a trap with ulterior motives?
Lu Chen, in his many years as a shadow, had long learned the instinct to not trust anyone. So when there were other suspicious points, he would not easily let it go.
For example, that dark and mysterious righteous grave.
