On the way back, Huai Xie was full of emotions and said to his brother: "Let me just say that my junior sister is a stable person! She has really grown up! It turns out that I always thought that she was still a child, but I didn't know that she was already able to take charge of her own business.

"

Liang Hongluo didn't know what he was thinking. He was lost in thought. He said "Thank you" twice in a row before he listened and nodded: "Yes."

When he recalled the past, Huai thanked him and patted his shoulder and said nothing.

When the few of them returned to Chaowen, they were waiting for the demon correction to arrive for dinner.

A dozen wooden tables were set up in the formerly empty space. A group of unkempt young people sat at the tables, feasting, chatting and laughing with the passing people. They were all enjoying themselves.

When Liang Hongluo saw those demon cultivators, his eyes suddenly changed and became cold and stern, and he looked away.

If some seats were facing the direction of the street, he raised his head and met Liang Hongluo. He recognized that this was also a demon cultivator brother, and smiled friendly. With the smile still hanging on his face, he saw Liang Hongluo.

Hongluo's evasive reaction made him feel a little embarrassed at the moment.

Ruowu gnawed on the bones and said vaguely: "Hey, why haven't I seen that fellow Taoist before? Where did he come from?"

If you carefully identified Liang Hongluo's profile for a while, you felt that this man was very lonely and had a strange temperament. He shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him either. The demon cultivators here don't wear clothes like his. Maybe

You must have come here from somewhere else."

"It looks a bit familiar." Ruowu glanced at it with his peripheral vision and quickly let go, "But don't all people look like this?"

Liang Hongluo found that none of these people knew him, and he felt angry and funny.

Zhuchen led his children straight to find a group of women nearby who were embroidering handkerchiefs.

She put down the child in her arms, pushed a nearby boy forward, and said, "Grandma, make them some food, boil some hot water, and find some clothes. These are the new children. From now on,

Let’s live here together.”

Several people saw her appear and had already come over. After hearing this, they squatted in front of the group of children, held their hands, and checked the situation.

"It's such a cold day, and you're only wearing such thin clothes? Look, your fingers are swollen from the cold. Come on, follow grandma this way."

"Why are you here? You're not from Yuyuan, are you? These shoes are in such tatters. Did you walk a long way?"

"Are you hungry? Grandma will give you a steamed bun first. You can take it and eat it slowly. I'll ask Lao Liu to cook for you."

"Xianjun, where did they come from?"

Zhuchen briefly talked about the heavy rains and floods in various places, and several people were deeply moved and sighed.

If they hadn't been protected by Chao Wen, how could they sit and bask in the sun like this? When it rained outside, they would probably have to wander around like these children.

The demon cultivator not far away heard the reason and took the initiative to invite the children to come to the table to eat first. They gave up their seats and asked Uncle Liu to prepare a few more tables.

The children were still frightened when they first arrived in a strange place, but they still couldn't recognize the difference between the so-called demon cultivators and mortal cultivators. They just felt that these uncles were a bit slovenly like them, and their attitude was very kind. After hesitating for a moment, they left.

past.

The demon cultivators smiled and carried the people to the wooden chairs, handed them the chopsticks, and changed bowls for them. Seeing that the place was temporarily too busy, they went to wander elsewhere.

Huai Xie was dumbfounded when he saw it. He never expected that the demon cultivator could get along with the common people in such a leisurely manner. He was originally worried that the place was so mixed that these orphans would be bullied without support. Seeing it like this now, he just felt strange.

He said: "These demon cultivators get along very harmoniously with the people. How do you explain it? Aren't the people afraid?"

Zhuchen laughed and said: "I didn't explain it, it's just that we can understand each other. Chaowen has always treated the demon cultivators honestly and equally, why should we be afraid?" If you are afraid, it is only the demon cultivators who are afraid. These people are all cowardly.

very!

Huai Xie thought the same thing: "The demon cultivator is in the mortal world, so his actions are somewhat restricted."

Most of those who can come and go freely in the mortal world have innate demonic bones and are capable of resisting the backlash of spiritual power. Those people act unruly and rampantly, and are full of evil deeds and wild and unruly, which makes ordinary people afraid.

Most demon cultivators do not dare to use magic power at will after leaving the demon world boundary monument, and they are no different from ordinary people who have no power to bind a chicken.

Huai Xie said with a smile: "You must not let those monks who stick to the rules know, otherwise, they may come to you with their swords and accuse you of colluding with the demon cultivators and betraying the sect."

Zhuchen was not afraid and pointed back casually: "Master is here anyway. If they want to slay the devil, they should take two moves from Master first."

Huai Xie became more serious and asked in a low voice: "Where is Master? How are you doing lately?"

Zhuchen said: "Have you gone to the devil world to practice? I'll call him for you."

Zhuchen directly summoned Hanxu Sword, waved his long arm, and signaled it to go find the wind and stay awake.

Huai Xie watched Hanxu go away with a look of shock on his face. He blinked a few times quickly before asking with difficulty: "Why is Hanxu Sword in your hand?"

Zhuchen said: "Master left it to me. The sword of Hanxu is meant to kill demons, so it is inconvenient for him to carry it with him."

Huai Xie said excitedly: "The sword intention of Hanxu Sword is indeed to kill demons, but what is the difference between it on you and on Master? Can't it still find traces of Master?"

Zhuchen thought about it for a while and then said: "Hey, it seems so?"

She doesn't have any magic weapons of her own, and she doesn't know the difference between these refined magic weapons and ordinary weapons. She also doesn't know what the so-called condensed sword intent is.

But Huai Xie has been practicing with Feng Buye for a long time, and he has some understanding of Hanxu Sword, much better than she does.

The two looked at each other silently, Zhuchen's face full of innocence.

Something is wrong.

This is very wrong.

Huai Xie said bluntly: "Maybe master is worried that you will be in danger. After all, you have not yet left the army, and it is not like my junior brother can protect himself."

Zhuchen nodded: "I think so too."

Huai Xie pricked up his ears and asked quietly: "Then what do you do with Hanxu Sword on weekdays?"

Zhuchen also answered him in a low voice: "How dare I use it to do strange things? I don't dare to use it to kill chickens or monsters. I usually just chop down trees and fight. Now so many monks are here.

, it’s not Hanxu’s turn to cut down the tree. Every time I finish wielding the sword, I will take good care of it.”

Huai Xie thought for a long time, lowered his head again, and asked in a lower voice: "How to maintain it?"

"I'll take care of your swords the same way you do." After Zhuchen finished speaking, he suddenly increased his voice, "Senior brother, it's so strange for you to ask these questions! And why do you have to talk like this?"

Huai Xie was startled by her and felt that his soul had drifted far away. His Adam's apple rolled hard and he did not dare to think deeply.

If Feng Buye gave him the sword, he would probably have to enshrine it in a palace eight hundred miles away. He would have to be careful even what he said, after all, the sword might give birth to a sword spirit at some point.

They also cut down trees... and maintained them...

Zhuchen called out: "Senior brother?"

Huai Xie shivered, hesitated several times, and carefully considered his words, he said to her tactfully: "Little junior sister, the Hanxu Sword does not require maintenance."

He pulled out his sword, placed it across his chest, showed it to Zhuchen and said, "Look, I never let others clean my sword. I just wipe it myself occasionally... just to feel comfortable."

Zhuchen said: "Me too."

"You..." Huai Xie hesitated, "You can't be!"

Zhuchen felt that he was grateful to this person, but there was something wrong with him. He didn't understand her respect for teachers at all. Just as he was about to speak, he made a mistake and saw Liang Hongluo looking cautiously this way.

The other party had always had an indifferent attitude, as if he didn't care about anything, but after entering Chaowen, he stopped observing the surroundings, and he was obviously very concerned about it.

Oh, this duplicitous and overconfident man.

Zhuchen pushed Huaixie and asked: "Elder brother, where did your fellow demon cultivator come from?"

"I met him by chance on the road." Huai Xie, who was worried at the moment, replied casually, "Fellow Taoist Hongluo became a demon for revenge. He is alone now. You can see that the injuries on his body are all the suffering he suffered in the demon world.

Although he is a demon cultivator, he is not a villain."

Zhuchen asked: "He also came out of the devil world?"

Huai Xie shook his head: "He is from Guanzhong. The demon cultivators destroyed his sect, and all ten members of his family were killed. In order to take revenge, he chased him all the way to the demon world. He practiced in the demon world for several years and just came back not long ago.

Unfortunately, mortal monks are too prejudiced against demonic cultivators, so he can only wander around and live in hiding."

Zhuchen raised his eyebrows: "I see."

In fact, they are all fake, and the persona of a pretty girl is really useful for straight men.

Liang Hongluo is at the forefront of the times.

But the strange thing about Liang Hongluo was that even though he was full of lies, Zhuchen didn't notice any malice.

Zhuchen couldn't stop his mind, and he couldn't help but have many daydreams.

Liang Hongluo noticed her strange gaze and turned away uncomfortably.

It was at this time that Feng Buye returned.

During the time he was practicing in the demon world, he had already mastered the demonic energy deeply. In the morning, he only saw a black light flashing from the horizon, and in the blink of an eye, the person was in front of him.

Feng Buye waved his sleeves and put away Hanxu. The wind in his sleeves raised a unique cold fragrance and floated up lightly.

Zhuchen said happily: "Master, senior brother is here!"

Feng Buye smiled lightly: "Thank you."

I thanked him and saluted him.

Feng Buye saw his cultivation level at a glance, his eyes were filled with a little warmth, he nodded and said: "I've made progress."

Huai Xie smiled and said: "I have been away from the mountain for many years, so I should have made some progress. Otherwise, how can I dare to say that I am your disciple?"

Feng Buye: “I’m also calm.”
