Shi Ning thought he heard wrong, "Swordsmanship?"

Yao Changze nodded, "Swordsmanship."

Shi Ning looked at Yao Changze with a look that was hard to explain, "Do you really want to discuss swordsmanship?"

Yao Changze: "Of course." Yao Changze asked himself sincerely.

"Okay, then wait a moment." Shi Ning said.

"No problem, I'm here to wait for you, girl."

Shi Ning turned around and entered the courtyard, knocking on the door of Ling Che's room, "Elder, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect want to discuss swordsmanship."

Yao Changze shouted from behind: "Shi Ning, Wait."

"What's wrong?" Shi Ning asked.

Yao Changze: "I mean..."

At this moment, Ling Che had walked out of the house with a serious expression. He looked at Yao Changze and asked, "You want to discuss swordsmanship?"

"No, I want to say..."

"I want to ." What did you say?"

"Why am I not worthy of discussing swordsmanship with you?" Ling Che asked in a bad tone.

How dare Yao Changze provoke Ling Che: "Don't dare."

"Since you have come to sincerely ask for sword skills, for the sake of your sincerity, go ahead and swing your sword three thousand times before coming to me." Ling Che waved his hand.

Yao Changze said painfully: "Disciple, I obey."

Looking at Yao Changze's leaving figure, Ling Che and Shi Ning looked at each other.

"I'm going to plant spiritual plants." Shi Ning was afraid that Ling Che would say something about swinging his sword five thousand times again, so he wanted to leave quickly.

"I'm going out. If Yao Changze comes over, tell me to let him swing another five thousand times." After Ling Che finished speaking, he disappeared.

Shi Ning looked at Yao Changze who was swinging his sword in the distance at the door, and secretly sighed, "You are working so hard."

Shan Zhi also meowed, "You worked so hard."

Just as one person and one cat were sighing, they heard two eagle calls coming from the sky.

Shi Ning looked up at the sky and saw a huge eagle hovering in the sky. It had a white head and a black body, and its entire body blocked the sun. He leaned down and flew toward the ground like an arrow that came out of a string.

The target of the eagle was the turtle that snatched the big yellow croaker yesterday.

Seeing that the turtle was about to be snatched away by the eagle, Shi Ning let go of the Wen Feng Vine and quickly tied the turtle back to the courtyard and quickly closed the door.

Because of Ling Che's barrier, the eagle circled twice in the air and left dissatisfied.

Wen Fengteng also let go of the turtle, but the turtle was on its back, unable to turn over.

Seeing this, Shi Ning helped turn the turtle over and said, "Are you okay?" However, after not seeing him for a day, there were several more scars on the turtle's shell.

After turning around with difficulty, the turtle seemed to sigh.

Shi Ning had never seen a sighing turtle before, and felt a little funny for a moment.

When Shan Nai saw that Shi Ning had found another spiritual beast and smiled at him, he also sighed unconvinced.

The turtle looked at Shan Nai, Mung Bean's eyes were filled with confusion, and he sighed again.

Shan Nai's desire to win suddenly came up, and he sighed several times in succession.

"That's enough, that's enough. Stop sighing, both of you. What's the comparison?" Shi Ning felt her head grow bigger as she listened to each sigh that became longer and longer.

Shi Ning turned around and brought some ointment and dried meat. The dried meat was handed to the turtle, and the ointment was applied on the turtle's shell.

"You are walking so slowly, and you are still wandering around. If you don't hide, who will catch you if not the eagle."

The turtle lowered his head and ate the dried meat in small bites, not moving even as Shi Ning bandaged his wounds.

"It's so nice of you to stay in the pool honestly, why are you always running on the shore." Shi Ning thought to herself.

Shan Zhi also echoed: "Yes, running everywhere, but still running slowly."

Wugui listened to these words silently, then lay aside and watched Shi Ning busy working.

Since Shi Ning had a precedent of picking up spiritual beasts, Shan Nai looked at Wu Turtle and said vigilantly: "Why don't you leave yet? What are you doing here!"

"We won't take you back."

"Yes. "Okay, Ning."

Shi Ning nodded, "Indeed."

The turtle has always lived here, so it's better to stay here.

Shan Zhen also said quickly: "Yes, we can't live in the house anymore."

Her cat is enough. All the mermaids and dragons should leave quickly, and don't add any other spiritual beasts.

Wugui looked dazed and didn't know if he understood what Shi Ning and Shan Nai said. He just lay aside and didn't move.

No matter how much Shan Zhi meowed, the turtle had a blank expression.

Shi Ning was already used to Shan Nai's appearance and didn't take it too seriously. He just focused on looking at his spiritual plant.

There were several kinds of spiritual plants planted this time. One or two of the seeds were Ganoderma lucidum seeds brought by Lin Panxin from Kunshan. They grew very slowly. Shi Ning seriously doubted that he would be able to see them grow before he left.

Although it is catalyzed by spiritual power, it will still experience some problems such as lack of water and insects. It is equivalent to pulling up the progress bar but still not being able to take a step.

Seeing that the morning glory seeds seemed to be lacking water, when Shi Ning was about to water some water, the turtle came over slowly.

"Why are you here? Are you leaving?" Shi Ning asked.

The turtle didn't seem to want to leave. He just walked to the morning glory, opened his mouth, and then spit out a small pool of water from his mouth and poured it on the morning glory.

"Are you watering the water?" Shi Ning didn't react for a moment.

The turtle closed its mouth, moved to another seed, and repeated the action.

Shan Nai and Shi Ning had never seen such a scene before, and they were both stunned for a moment.

After watering the turtle, after doing all this, he hid his merits and fame and silently moved to the other side to take a nap. His little eyes were filled with great exhaustion.

Seeing that Shi Ning couldn't hide his heart-beating expression, Shan Nai felt that his position was in jeopardy, "You can't take him away. He lives here."

"Actually, the problem shouldn't be big, there are turtles in Qingshui Pond too." Shi Ning He said thoughtfully.

"No!" There is already a scheming dragon, and there cannot be another watered turtle. What status does she still have in this family?

Shi Ning picked up Shan Nai and advised: "We should have a fraternal heart, right? Look how pitiful this turtle is here, with wounds all over his body. Let's take him back and take good care of him. He can also help us water the turtle." Water, do you think it makes sense?" Shi Ning was really attracted to this turtle that could water water. Jing Li was injured and he didn't know if he could make rain, but there was such a suitable turtle right now. It's really hard for her not to be tempted.

Shan Nai shook his head, cat hair flying everywhere, "No."

"Don't worry, if there are one hundred more spirit beasts in the house, your position in my heart will be number one." Shi Ning knew that Shan Nai was She was afraid that if there were too many spiritual beasts in the family, her status would be taken away.

When Shan Nai heard a hundred spiritual beasts, his tail suddenly exploded, and he asked loudly: "A hundred?"

"This is just a metaphor, an exaggeration." Shi Ningzheng and Shan Nai explained what rhetoric is.

Suddenly there was a strong wind, and a strong current hit Shi Ning. Shi Ning suddenly let go of Shan Zhi, protected the soul-inducing bell in his hand, and shouted at the same time: "Wen Feng."

After hearing the sound, Wen Feng Teng quickly detached from Shi Ning's wrist and flew into the air. .

Upon hearing the effect of the wind vine, the direction of the wind suddenly changed, from attacking Shi Ning to turning away from Shi Ning, going in the opposite direction. All the wind surrounded Wen Feng Veng, and at the same time, due to the fighting in the house, Ling Che's barrier was aroused. The inside should be closed and the outside should be closed, and the front and back are attacked. The vines that heard the wind will tie up the creator of the figurine tightly, making it impossible to move.

Shi Ning's vision gradually became clearer, and he could clearly see the person Wen Feng Teng had tied up, "Turtle?"

Shan Nai also kept shouting at the turtle, "I have already seen that you are not a good person." After saying that, he felt something was wrong, He corrected: "I've already seen that you are not a good turtle."

Who would water a turtle?

Huang Xueping also came out because of the shaking of the barrier and looked at Shi Ning, "What's going on?"

Shi Ning was also unsure, "It seemed like a sea monster came just now, but I don't know why it tied up this turtle..."

Only the turtle was seen . Under the gaze of the two men, he turned into a seven or eight-year-old boy.

The boy said arrogantly: "You guys let me go quickly, or my master will come and won't let you go."

Huang Xueping was stunned on the spot, and it took him a long time to say a name, "Xuanwu?"

The boy said angrily: " How do you know my name? Let me go quickly."

Shi Ning looked at Huang Xueping and said, "Xuanwu Divine Turtle? Elder Ling Che's spiritual beast?"

Huang Xueping looked at Xuanwu carefully and saw that his eyes were filled with anger. and killing. He didn't look like the Xuanwu he had known at all. He couldn't help shaking his head, "Where have you been all these years? Ling Che has been looking for you."

"Ling Che? Who is Ling Che? Why is he looking for me? You Stinky Teng, please let me go quickly. Otherwise, I will be rude to you."

Just as the boy was making a fuss and asked Wen Feng Teng to let him go, Yao Changze's urgent voice came from the door.

"Miss Shi Ning, are you okay? Is the sea monster here?"

If the sea monster is really Elder Lingche's spiritual beast, this matter will be very difficult. Chengtianmen must not have anything to do with the sea monster. Besides, if Ling Che knew about it, he would never hand over Xuanwu.

After Huang Xueping cast a sleeping spell on Xuanwu, he said to Shi Ning: "Take him back to the room and hide him first."

After Shi Ning took the boy back to the room, he heard Huang Xueping open the door and say: "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Yao? Yao

Changze asked: "I just saw a strong wind suddenly blowing in the yard. Is it the sea monster?"

Some more people seemed to come to the door and asked about the sea monster. Huang Xueping said: "There was indeed a strong wind just now, no. " We don't know the rest."

Yao Changze asked, "Is Miss Shi Ning okay?"

Huang Xueping said, "

It's fine."

"You finished with five thousand sword blows? " "Ling Che's voice suddenly came from the door.

Shi Ning looked at the unconscious boy on the ground and felt a headache for a moment. One second he was still a little turtle helping him water his water, but the next second he looked like a sea monster.

Jing Li heard the movement just now and was looking at the boy on the ground in the dark.

Just when Shi Ning was at a loss, the voices of Huang Xueping and Ling Che came from outside, "Shi Ning."

Shi Ning quickly opened the door, and Ling Che's eyes suddenly focused on the boy, his body trembling slightly, and his throat was hoarse. Say the word Xuanwu.

This was the first time Shi Ning saw Ling Che in such a panic.

Huang Xueping closed the door and said softly: "Ling Che, please calm down first."

"Xuanwu is wrong."

Ling Che asked anxiously: "What's wrong?"

"Did you cast a sleeping spell on him?"

Huang Xueping explained: "It happened suddenly. , let him sleep for

a while, otherwise you may not be able to accept it all of a sudden and scare him." Ling Che obviously didn't believe this argument, "I have known Xuanwu for so many years, and he and I have never had any scenes. How could you scare him after this experience?" Huang

Xueping stroked his beard irritably: "It's

okay to scare you." "What are you talking about?"

"Why are you tying up his beard?"

He broke off and said anxiously: "Xuanwu may be the Siren. If I don't tie him up and put a sleeping spell on him, will I let him be captured by the people from Fuxing Sect?"

"Siren?" Ling Che asked in return.

"Ling Che, I understand how you feel now, but you really need to calm down."

Shi Ning also advised: "Elder, it is not yet possible to prove that Xuanwu is a sea monster, it is just speculation."

Ling Che also gradually calmed down . He came down, looked at Xuanwu who was unconscious on the ground, and carried him to the bed.

"Shi Ning, what's going on?"

Shi Ning told Lin Panxin the whole story from when he and Lin Panxin first met the turtle to when the turtle turned into a human form.

Huang Xueping added: "I mentioned your name in front of him just now, but he didn't remember you at all. And he should have another master now."

"You and Xuanwu have already formed a contract, but you have been missing for so many years. There was no trace of Xuanwu. So we all thought that something happened to Xuanwu, but now it seems that Xuanwu has changed hands."

What Huang Xueping said was like a knife in Ling Che's heart.

"As for how and why the owner changed hands, and why you didn't notice it after the change of owner, we still don't know the reason."

"But I just saw that Xuanwu's face was very violent, and I'm afraid it has something to do with the demon cultivator. "

Listening to Huang Xueping's words, Ling Che didn't speak for a long time, and finally said as if he had made up his mind: "You have broken his sleeping spell. I will ask him personally."

"You can break the spell, but if Xuanwu is really Hai. What should I do about the demon?" Huang Xueping said with a rare serious look.

"This is not just about you, you have to consider the entire sect. At this critical moment, Dao Ancestor is missing, and Shi Ning will take over as the leader next year. Chengtian Sect must not let any rumors of collusion with the demon cultivator at this moment."

"Otherwise you It means harming Shi Ning, harming Chengtianmen. How will you face the long-dead old people under Shi Jiuquan?"

Ling Che looked at Huang Xueping and Shi Ning and said, "I have my own sense of discretion, if he is really helpless. The medicine can save him, I will definitely kill him personally and will not tolerate him causing trouble in the world." After saying this, Ling Che looked at Xuanwu on the bed and said firmly: "But now, I want to ask clearly. I understand, the matter has not been clarified, and I will never allow anyone to accuse him of the sea monster."

Huang Xueping and Shi Ning looked at each other and asked, "After I break the curse, you still don't want to loosen the vines . Open. Don't let him get away."

"Don't worry, elder." Shi Ning was also reassured that Wen Feng Teng would not let go of Xuanwu as long as she didn't tell him to untie it.

Huang Xueping was relieved to untie the sleeping spell. After the sleeping spell had no effect, Xuanwu gradually opened his eyes. After seeing the surrounding scene clearly, he continued to break it and cursed: "Let me go, or I won't be polite." ."

Due to the noise, Shi Ning quickly placed a silencing spell on the room to prevent the sound from spreading.

"My master will definitely kill you!"

Ling Che thought about encountering Xuanwu many times, but he never thought of this one.

"Who is your master?" Lingche asked sharply.

Xuanwu frowned and looked at Ling Che, "It's none of your business. Who are you? Let me go quickly."

Seeing that Ling Che's expression was getting worse and worse, Shi Ning said quickly: "Elder, calm down, Xuanwu seems to remember everything." That's incredible." Ling Che asked again, " Did you steal the soul-

inducing bell last time?"

Gone."

Xuanwu kept saying this without leaving his master, and this master was not Ling Che. Ling Che was going to be furious.

"Who is your master?" Shi Ning asked again.

"Who am I to tell you, you bad guys? When my master finds this place, he will kill every one of you."

If Ling Che saw Xuanwu just now, he was excited and happy for a long time, but now he looks at everything I can't remember Xuanwu anymore, I'm just confused.

"Why don't we just let him fall asleep again? I can't ask anything anyway." Shi Ning suggested in a low voice as he watched Ling Che's increasingly depressed expression.

Ling Che nodded, and Huang Xueping quickly cast the sleeping spell again.

"What to do now?" Shi Ning asked.

"I'll take Xuanwu back to the room to check his injuries first." Ling Che picked up Xuanwu and said, "Besides, doesn't he have a master? I want to see who his master is."

"What about the vines? " Is it open?" Shi Ning asked.

Ling Che hesitated for a while and said: "Let go first."

Huang Xueping reminded from the side: "Elder Ling, be careful." He wanted to remind Ling Che not to forget that he was still the elder of Chengtianmen.

"I will. Don't worry."

Huang Xueping and Shi Ning were the only ones left in the room. Huang Xueping sighed, "You should also go to bed early." Jing Li silently watched Xuanwu's every move.

In Ling Che's room, Ling Che cleaned Xuanwu's wounds and sat silently by the bed, looking at Xuanwu.

The Xuanwu clan grows slowly. Although they haven't seen each other for fifty years, Xuanwu's appearance has not changed much, but he has grown a lot taller. The biggest change is that he can no longer hide the violent aura on his face. Even after casting a sleeping spell, his brows were knitted together.

Ling Che remembered what Shi Ning said just now about Xuanwu helping him water the flowers. Xuanwu also helped him water his flowers in the past.

I still remember these things, but I can't remember anything about myself.

We haven’t seen each other for fifty years, but it’s like this when we meet again. Ling Che sighed deeply, feeling helpless.

"He was given a soul-fixing needle."

A voice suddenly rang in Ling Che's ears.

"Tao Ancestor?" Ling Che could never mishear the voice of Tao Ancestor Xuan Zhen.

"Dao Ancestor?" Ling Che walked out of the room and shouted.

Huang Xueping and Shi Ning also heard the sound and came out and asked, "Tao Ancestor?"

"Elder Ling, have you seen Tao Ancestor?" Huang Xueping asked excitedly.

Ling Che searched to no avail, "No, I just heard Daozu speak."

"What did Daozu say?" Shi Ning asked.

Ling Che retreated to the room, and Huang Xueping and Shi Ning also came in and asked.

"Taozu said that Xuanwu was given a soul-fixing needle."

Huang Xueping asked in surprise: "Soul-fixing needle?"

"If it is true that Xuanwu was given a soul-fixing needle as Taozu said, then everything makes sense."

"Why? ?" Shi Ning was curious about what this soul-fixing needle was for.

"Both humans and animals have three souls and seven souls. The three souls control the mind, and the seven souls control the body. When the soul-fixing needle seals the three souls, the mind will change drastically."

Ling Che agreed: "What the Taoist said will not be false.

Huang Xueping stroked his beard happily, "This can be considered a clue. Besides, it's a good thing for Dao Ancestor to appear."

But Shi Ning paid attention: "Apparently..., wouldn't that Dao Ancestor..." have passed away ?

Huang Xueping was silent, but Ling Che denied it: "Tao Ancestor is still alive, so it's probably inconvenient to show up."

Shi Ning: "That's good."

Jing Li, who was inexplicably passed away, was hiding behind a cloud at the moment, looking at the house The scene inside. Although he had never seen Xuanwu before coming to Jiaoyue Mountain, but listening to their conversation today, Xuanwu's mind had changed drastically, as if he had become a different person. He could not remember anything, and there was no sign of seizing his body. Only the soul-fixing needle could do that. Although it was a bit abrupt to remind Ling Che at this moment, the matter of Siren needed to be investigated clearly. He had a vague intuition that the matter of Xuanwu was related to the thunder disaster he suffered. Moreover, if Chengtianmen is not given a reassurance, his whereabouts will always be traced, and sooner or later it will be revealed that it is Long's fault.

"Are we going to take out the soul-fixing needle now?" Shi Ning looked at Xuanwu who was sleeping soundly.

Ling Che put his hand on Xuanwu's head and said feelingly: "The soul-fixing needle has been in place for fifty years. If you take it out hastily, it will hurt Xuanwu's life."

"Then what should we do now?" Huang Xueping asked, "When he wakes up, it will happen again." It's a big fuss."

"We are all at Fuxingmen now. If everyone accidentally gets to know about Xuanwu's trouble, it will not end well."

"But if we leave in a hurry, it will inevitably arouse suspicion." added.

Ling Che said worriedly: "The soul-fixing needle is a thing of the demon cultivator. The demon cultivator has always been insidious, and according to Xuanwu, he also has a master. If it is really a demon cultivator, taking out the soul-fixing needle will definitely alarm him."

While the three of them were discussing, the figure of Xuanwu lying on the bed gradually changed, from the appearance of a seven or eight-year-old boy to the shape of a turtle.

The turtle opened his eyes and looked at the three people in front of him blankly.

The author has something to say:

Shan Nai: "I said I was the first, but then a strong wind came and knocked me on my ass."

Shi Ning: "It happened suddenly..."

Shan Nai: "A second ago, I said I wouldn't take it. The turtle will smell so good the next second, oh, woman."

Shi Ning: "Who can resist a turtle that knows how to water water?"

Jing Li: "Yes, yes, yes, yes ." Yes."

Ling Che: "The excitement is all yours, and the loneliness is mine alone. The son I raised for hundreds of years no longer recognizes me. QAQ the heartache of an old father who lost his only son."
