Chapter 742 Shaobai 15
Originally, he planned to go to Jiangnan to urge for updates face to face, but not long after he dealt with Ji Ruofeng, he received a message from Ye Dingzhi sent by the Golden Eagle.
Ye Dingzhi said that Baili Dongjun had left Tianwaitian and returned to Central Plains, and on the way he met Sikong Changfeng, who had recovered from his heart disease.
Jiang Xinxin changed direction and headed southwest, where she met Sikong Changfeng and his party halfway.
Jiang Xinxin swiftly descended from the sky and landed next to Sikong Changfeng, who was grilling fish by the river. She raised her hand and patted his shoulder: "It's really you, Sikong!"
"I smelled it from afar, so I came over to take a look, and it turned out to be you!"
Sikong Changfeng was also very happy to see Jiang Xinxin again. He turned around and gave her a piece of the grilled fish in his hand, and did not forget to tease her: "So it's the little Taoist priest in person. How disrespectful."
The two were still exchanging pleasantries when Jiang Xinxin saw a young man with white hair and a youthful face walking over with two horses. He nodded in response to Jiang Xinxin's curious gaze: "My name is Nangong Chunshui, may I know who you are--"
Sikong Changfeng took the initiative to introduce Jiang Xinxin: "This is the Little Heavenly Master of Wangcheng Mountain. Dongjun and I knew him in Chaisang City before."
Nangong Chunshui smiled and said, "So you are the world-famous Little Heavenly Master of Wangcheng Mountain, the first person to enter the Mysterious Realm at the age of fourteen!"
No matter how kind the other party behaved and how much he admired her, Jiang Xinxin always felt that Nangong Chunshui was a weird guy. Her intuition told her that he was definitely not an ordinary person.
When he recounted his guess about Li Changsheng faking his death, he realized that this Nangong Chunshui should be Li Changsheng who had regained his youth.
Since she felt that the other party was speaking in a sarcastic tone, Jiang Xinxin naturally did not hesitate to expose Li Changsheng's true colors directly: "In the past, I only heard from my master and uncles that this skill called 'Chun' is very amazing. Now I see it with my own eyes, and it really lives up to its reputation."
Sikong Changfeng thought Jiang Xinxin was just joking, but he already knew that Nangong Chunshui was Baili Dongjun's master Li Changsheng, so he didn't help either of them at this time. He took the grilled fish that he had just stuffed into Jiang Xinxin's mouth and sat down to continue grilling it.
Nangong Chunshui didn't feel embarrassed by Jiang Xinxin, but tied up the horse, asked Jiang Xinxin to sit aside, and then began to ask serious questions: "How did you know my identity, little Taoist priest?"
Jiang Xinxin raised her eyebrows: "Do I need to say this? Anyone with a little knowledge should know that when a cultivator enters the Divine Wandering Profound Realm, a strange phenomenon will fall from the sky to show the world. And when a cultivator whose realm has surpassed the Divine Wandering Profound Realm dies, how could there be no signs at all?"
"Ji Ruofeng and Xiao Ruofeng were both your disciples, but they didn't show much sorrow after your 'fall', especially Ji Ruofeng, who even went out of his way to block me at the South Gate. His look didn't please me, so I slapped him. Now that I think about it, he should be recovering from his injuries now."
Nangong Chunshui just felt a headache. Sikong Changfeng took the time to secretly give Jiang Xinxin a thumbs up. Jiang Xinxin looked at Nangong Chunshui with a smile, waiting for him to give her an explanation.
Nangong Chunshui could only sigh and cup his hands, saying, "Little Heavenly Master is really perceptive. It was my disciple who was rude."
Well, Nangong Chunshui now knew that the person who had deposed Prince Qing and Prince Jinyu and also rehabilitated the Ye family should be the little Taoist priest from Wangcheng Mountain who had not yet reached the age of marriage.
Jiang Xinxin was not interested in dealing with the old witch Nangong Chunshui, and complained to Sikong Changfeng: "There are only two fish here, which is not enough to eat."
Sikong Changfeng was good-tempered and said with a smile: "It's okay, Dongjun and Dingzhi went to the forest to hunt. With their skills, they should be able to catch two pheasants or rabbits."
Jiang Xinxin nodded in satisfaction, but then she started to criticize again: "It's all barbecue, it's a bit boring if it's not paired with some vegetables and fruits to relieve the greasiness. How come we can't even have a sip of hot soup?"
Nangong Chunshui thought he had enjoyed everything in the world, but he couldn't help laughing when he heard that Jiang Xinxin was picky about food when she went out.
Sikong Changfeng knew that Jiang Xinxin did this on purpose, so he smiled good-naturedly and turned to Nangong Chunshui and said, "Sir, do you want to go to the forest to see if there are any wild fruits or vegetables? You have seen a lot and experienced a lot, so you must be more experienced than us young people when it comes to things."
Really, there was a moment when Nangong Chunshui felt that Jiang Xinxin had been spoiled by the group of old Taoist priests in Wangcheng Mountain. After all, this child was always dressed very gorgeously when she went out. Her clothes were layered with gold and silver embroidery. It would have been fine if she had nothing to do with the overall Taoist temperament, but the filigree lotus crown on her head was made of real gold and silver and was inlaid with pearls and gems!
The shoes she wore were made of Shu brocade, which were in themselves of extraordinary value and were also inlaid with pearls!
Really, when this girl comes out, who would dare to believe that she is the contemporary Taoist priest of Wangcheng Mountain!
Being bullied by the two juniors, Nangong Chunshui just smiled casually. When he was leading the horse out to graze, he actually found some fresh and tender wild vegetables that were edible. However, he thought that a grown man didn't need to be so delicate, so he was too lazy to bring them back.
Nangong Chunshui walked away, and Jiang Xinxin asked about Sikong Changfeng's injuries: "You were injured and poisoned at the time, are you well now?"
Sikong Changfeng was grateful for his friend's concern and nodded vigorously: "Everything is fine!"
"Not only did I cure my heart disease and remove the poison, the King of Medicine saw that I was gifted and insisted on taking me in as his disciple, and taught me all his skills!"
Although she knew that Sikong Changfeng would become the third city lord of Xueyue City in the future and also achieve the name of Gun Immortal, Jiang Xinxin also saw with her own eyes that he was injured and dying. At that time, she warmed the pot of wine to save his life, and then she poisoned him. Even Jiang Xinxin herself contributed a fasting pill.
Sikong Changfeng really thought of the Bigu Pill. He solemnly reminded Jiang Xinxin, "Don't take out the pill you gave me before. Although it can't detoxify, my heart disease was able to recover, and a large part of it was thanks to the pill. If any news about this good thing gets out, it will be difficult for you to get away!"
Jiang Xinxin helped him turn the grilled fish over and promised solemnly: "Don't worry, I was in an emergency and your condition was too serious, so I gritted my teeth and took it out. You see, your character is still trustworthy, even the King of Medicine said so."
Although Sikong Changfeng was secretly delighted by the compliment, he couldn't help but add one more sentence: "I was afraid that you would get carried away. We had only known each other for less than ten days at that time..."
