In order to get rid of that embarrassing feeling, she continued to ask about the topic that Gu Qing had just mentioned.
Why did Zhao Layue attach so much importance to this restaurant?
"I only know that this is the place where Senior Master Aunt killed someone for the first time, but I don't know anything else."
Gu Qing said, "The person she killed was a disciple of the Underworld."
Xiao He's face suddenly turned pale.
Gu Qing shook his head and said, "Don't think too much. We didn't mean to kill you."
Xiao He still didn't dare to relax. She stared into his eyes and said, "I'm trouble for Liu Shisui no matter who comes here."
If the problem of Zuo Yi of Bihu Peak was solved, Liu Shisui's future would be bright.
But if he always had a sinful vixen with him, he would be affected.
And according to Liu Shisui's style of doing things, this problem couldn't be solved unless the vixen disappeared completely.
No wonder Xiao He was so vigilant and uneasy when she knew that this was the place where Zhao Layue killed someone for the first time.
"Liu Shisui didn't treat you as trouble, so you are not trouble for him. In the same way, Liu Shisui is not trouble for Shenmo Peak."
Gu Qing said with a smile, "But now it seems that Shenmo Peak will indeed become trouble for Aoyama."
That was because some people in Aoyama regarded Shenmo Peak as trouble.
In Xiao He's eyes, Gu Qing's smile was not so hateful anymore. It was confident and cute.
…
…
Nine days later, the sun set as usual.
The sun in Shangde Peak seemed to set faster than other places. The temperature in the mountain dropped sharply at night, and the pine trees on the cliffs gradually frosted.
After all, he hadn't been here for several years. Yuan Qu felt a bit uncomfortable walking on the mountain path on the ice and snow. However, he still remembered those roads very well. It didn't take him long to find the residence of the disciples of Shangde Peak. He called out to Junior Sister Yushan without alerting anyone.
Junior Sister Yushan dusted off the ice and snow on his clothes with distress. She suddenly thought of something and hurriedly pulled him to a remote place behind the cliff. She asked nervously, "Why did you sneak here? It's impossible to save him. "
Seeing her anxious look, Yuan Qü found it cute, so he teased her on purpose, "Why not? Aren't you leading the way? "
Junior Sister Yushan glared at him angrily and said, "What are you thinking about? There is only one deep and terrifying passageway leading to the Sword Jail. I can't even get close to the forbidden cave residence, so how can I take you there … No! No! Even if I could, I wouldn't bring you there. That's the Sword Prison! "
Yuan Qu thought to himself, "Isn't it just a well? Why are you exaggerating?" Then, he was a bit surprised that Junior Sister Yushan knew about the forbidden cave residence and that well. It should be noted that ordinary disciples of Shangde Peak had no access to these things, not to mention that she had only been in Shanghai Peak for a few years.
Due to various reasons, fewer and fewer disciples were willing to inherit the sword of Shangde Peak, let alone girls.
Junior Sister Yushan was the only female disciple of Shanghai Peak in the past several decades, so she was naturally favored.
Yuan Qu didn't think of all this. He found that Junior Sister Yushan seemed to be living a good life in Shanghai Peak. Somehow, he felt a bit jealous.
Junior Sister Yushan didn't notice the change in his expression. She asked nervously, "What are you doing here?"
"I don't know," Yuan Qu said blankly, "Senior Uncle asked me to come here to find you, so I came."
Junior Sister Yushan was startled. "What does Senior Uncle Jing Jiu mean?" she asked.
Yuan Qu said, "Don't worry about it. The masters are thinking about things, and we just need to listen to them."
Junior Sister Yushan thought it was reasonable, but it was not convenient for Senior Brother to enter the cave residence to drink tea. What should we do next on such a cold night?
Yuan Qu led her to the other side of the cliff. They passed through a small forest and came to a black stone protruding from the snow.
The black stone was facing the starry sky, and below it was a field of cold-resistant wildflowers.
Junior Sister Yushan was wondering why Senior Brother was so familiar with the roads of Shangde Peak. Suddenly, she saw this strange and beautiful scenery and forgot about those questions.
In front of the flowers and under the stars, let's talk casually.
…
…
Yuan Qu was very familiar with Shanghai Peak, but there was someone who was more familiar with it than him.
Jing Jiu had lived here for a long time, even longer than the time he had lived on Shenmo Peak.
At that time, both the Grandmaster and the Master were still alive, but they had been in closed-door training to prepare for their ascension. Senior Brother was the Peak Lord of Shangde Peak, so he naturally cultivated here.
Like Liu Ada, Jing Jiu was still very young at the time. He was still interested in many things, especially since his Cultivation state had improved too fast, so he had a lot of free time at certain stages when he needed time. As such, he often walked around Shangde Peak, looking at all the sceneries, and found many well-hidden passageways.
Even Senior Brother and Yuan Qijing did not know these things as well as he did.
He still didn't like this place, because it was too cold. Whether it was inside or outside, it was ice cold, and there was even a bit of dampness.
The coldness from the outside to the inside was naturally due to the existence of the Sword Jail.
He was also very familiar with the Sword Jail.
But he had never thought of rescuing Liu Shisui from the Sword Jail without anyone knowing.
Because it was impossible to hide from someone.
Even if he could hide from heaven and earth, he still could not hide from the Sword Jail.
No matter which passage he entered the Sword Jail, he would be discovered by the Sword Jail, and he would also be discovered by the Sword Jail when he left.
As such, he had always wanted to know what the Sword Jail had done when his Big Brother escaped from it seventeen years ago.
A beam of starlight fell down from a high place in the sky.
Looking up from below, the mouth of the well looked like a small dot.
There was a large and spacious cave at the bottom of the well, which was dry and slightly cold.
The starlight fell down like a beam of light, shining on the body of a black dog as large as a mountain.
He was the Principal Guard of Aoyama, the Dead Dog.
Jing Jiu fell down along with the starlight.
He didn't fall down from the mouth of the well, but from a secret passage among the cliff walls.
He landed on the ground gently, the rims of his cloth dropping like the lotus leaves, making no sound.
He didn't breathe, and it seemed that he didn't have a heartbeat or any bodily energy. He didn't even have a sense of existence, like a lifeless stone.
Even when facing a Cultivation practitioner in the Broken Sea State, Jing Jiu was certain that he wouldn't be discovered by the other party as long as his eyes were closed.
Yet, he was certain that the Dead Dog had already discovered him.
The Dead Dog had seen too many dead people.
Even the real corpses without any temperature couldn't escape his perception.
The Dead Dog opened his eyes and stared at Jing Jiu in Silence.
The starlight shone on their bodies.
The expression in the Dead Dog's eyes was calm, devoid of any emotion, like an ancient well without any ripples.
Jing Jiu was the only one who could see a hint of warmth in the deep end of the Dead Dog's eyes.
The hint of warmth wasn't directed at Jing Jiu; it was innate to him.
"Thank you for your hard work over the years," said Jing Jiu.
The expression in the Dead Dog's eyes was rather nonchalant.
"I thought you would like that child and be willing to teach him something."
Jing Jiu said, "Now that I think about it, it's indeed a delusion. No matter how similar he is, he is still not my Big Brother."
The Dead Dog turned his head to look at the gloomy and gloomy passage, indicating his agreement and … nostalgia.
"No two leaves are exactly the same, and no two people are exactly the same."
After a moment of silence, Jing Jiu continued, "What my Big Brother said is right. It's impossible for us to step into the same river."
The Dead Dog shot a sympathetic glance at him.
He knew that Jing Jiu came to see him at the risk of being discovered, and he must have something to ask him in addition to taking that disciple away.
"Did you let my Big Brother go?" asked Jing Jiu.
The Dead Dog looked at Jing Jiu in Silence, and gave his answer through his spiritual awareness.
"No."
"But you didn't stop him when he left."
"I didn't stop you when you locked him up here."
