Mortal bone

Lin Buyu turned his head to look at Zi Yan when he heard the words, then turned his head again, shook his head expressionlessly and said:

"do not remember."

Everyone was a little embarrassed when they heard this.

"Three years have passed, and it's normal not to remember."

Ziyan smiled and smoothed things over.

"That's right. It's been three years. It's normal not to remember. You can see that my sister is as tall as me now."

Zhao Linglong smiled and gestured.

If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Taiping was the first disciple she went down the mountain to pick up, if it wasn't for the fact that she had a similar situation to Xu Taiping when she was young, she might have forgotten about the boy.

Although Zhao Linglong's father is the master of Qifeng Peak, she was born to the master of Qifeng Peak and a secular woman. She grew up in the secular world until she was seven years old. Her mother made a living by helping people wash clothes. Later, her mother fell ill. Heavy, at only six or seven years old, she actually learned how to wash and cook, and how to cook medicine and stew soup.

If her mother hadn't died and she was found by the master of Qifeng Peak, she might have left with her mother that winter.

"By the way, Sister Ziyan, if you are here today, could it be that you are also here to watch the Longmen Club?"

Zhao Linglong stopped thinking about those past events, immediately changed the subject, and asked Xu Ziyan curiously.

"Yesterday, when I wrote to Qing Xiao, I learned that you borrowed the mountain patrol mirror, so I thought about taking a look together. Although it is a competition between outer disciples, it is once every three years. If you miss it, you have to wait again." Three years."

Zi Yan nodded.

"That's just right. At the Longmen meeting this year, Xu Taiping, who went to the mountain with my sister, is also there. Then you can get to know each other again."

Zhao Linglong joked to Lin Buyu with a smile.

"Ah."

What surprised Zhao Linglong and Zi Yan was that Lin Buyu neither ignored nor refuted this time.

……

After a while.

In front of the bamboo forest stone table.

"Okay, now what appears in the bronze mirror is the martial arts arena in front of the Dragon Gate Hall. Today's competition will be held on the four rings in the center of the arena."

After Qing Xiao urged the bronze mirror with mana, he put him back on the stone table.

"I'll take a look."

Zhao Linglong propped her arm on the edge of the table and moved her head closer, and then found that as Qing Xiao said, the picture of the martial arts field in front of the Dragon Gate Hall had appeared in the bronze mirror.

In the picture, the four-sided arena lined up in the center of the martial arts arena is the most conspicuous, and the flow of people on the field is also concentrated around the four-sided arena.

"Second Senior Brother, do you know where Taiping is in the arena?"

Zhao Linglong suddenly raised her head and looked at Qing Xiao.

"Sister Linglong, the Longmen Club draws lots on the spot, so no one knows which one they will be in before today."

Before Qing Xiao could speak, Zi Yan smiled and helped to explain.

"Well, we can only find it slowly."

Zhao Linglong nodded.

She didn't pay attention to the selection of the Seven Peaks at all before, and naturally she didn't know about it.

"Let me find it."

At this time, Qing Xiao also circulated a little spiritual power to her fingertips, drew a rune pattern on the surface of the bronze mirror, followed the picture in the bronze mirror, and began to enlarge it little by little.

"Let's look for it from the ring in the east first, and you guys should also look at some."

As he spoke, he fiddled with the bronze mirror with his fingers, and followed the picture in the bronze mirror to gradually enlarge the picture of the ring in the east.

Therefore, the angle of view of the bronze mirror is like a bird soaring in the sky, passing over the heads of the monks in the martial arts arena.

"No, no, the ring on the east side is full of old men, there is no peace."

Zhao Linglong only glanced at it, then waved her hand, asking Qing Xiao to look at another arena.

Because she doesn't know Xu Taiping's current appearance, she can only use her age as a reference to search. Fortunately, most of the outer sect monks who are capable of participating in the Dragon Gate Association are older and most of them are martial arts, so it is not too troublesome to find. .

"Wait, there's a young one here."

Zhao Linglong suddenly stopped Qing Xiao.

"This person is not Xu Taiping."

Zi Yan, who had also been paying attention to the picture in the bronze mirror, shook her head at this moment.

As the picture zoomed in rapidly, the young man's face also appeared on the bronze mirror.

Although he is also very young, his appearance is not that of Xu Taiping at first glance, there is a big difference in face shape and eyebrows.

"Senior Sister Zi Yan, how do you know this is not Xu Taiping's?"

After confirming that the person was not Xu Taiping, Zhao Linglong suddenly looked up at Ziyan curiously.

"This man's name is Lu Yuan. He came to Yunlu Mountain seven years ago. Although he is a white spirit bone, he is very talented in martial arts and is best at wielding knives. He has long been a disciple of the outer sect who was secretly observed by the peaks."

Ziyan explained.

"Well, master, he also asked to pay attention to this person."

Qing Xiao nodded upon hearing this.

"There is such a powerful disciple in the outer sect, Taiping must not meet him."

While Zhao Linglong continued to search for Xu Taiping from the bronze mirror, she muttered to herself with some worry.

"The outer disciples who can come to the Dragon Gate Hall are not mediocre. Even if they don't meet Lu Yuan, they will meet other people."

Qing Xiao refuted Zhao Linglong's sentence.

"Can you say something nice..."

"do not move."

Before Zhao Linglong finished speaking, she was interrupted by Lin Buyu, who was originally silent.

"what happened?"

The three of them looked at Lin Buyu together.

"That person is a bit like him."

Lin Buyu pointed at the bronze mirror.

The three of them looked down and found that the boy Lin Buyu was pointing at was indeed somewhat similar to Xu Taiping in their memories.

"Second senior brother, zoom in a bit more, quick, quick, quick!"

Zhao Linglong urged again and again.

"Don't worry."

Qing Xiao glared at Zhao Linglong, and then swipe lightly with the finger of the Yin Jue, and the image in the bronze mirror kept zooming in until only the figure of the boy remained.

However, because the angle of view of the bronze mirror was looking down, and the boy was writing something with his head down, the three of them couldn't see his appearance clearly for a long time.

Just when Zhao Linglong was so anxious that Qing Xiao wanted to think of a way again, the boy suddenly stopped the pen in his hand, and looked up towards the sky as if he had sensed something.

So his appearance happened to be clearly displayed on the bronze mirror.

It was a slightly childish face, but the edges and corners had already begun to appear, especially the pupils under the slightly furrowed eyebrows, which had the determination, sharpness and a little stubbornness not like a teenager.

"It's him, he is Little Taiping!"

After being stunned for a moment, Zhao Linglong suddenly shouted happily.

"Although Xu Taiping has grown taller and has become much tougher, his facial features have not changed, it is him."

She then added excitedly.

What impressed him the most about Xu Taiping was the wary look with a little stubbornness in his eyes when they first met.

"It should be him. Look at the sign on the table in front of him."

Qing Xiao pointed to the table in front of Xu Taiping in the bronze mirror.

Everyone heard the words and looked at it together, and then found that the six words "Qingzhu Ju Xu Taiping" were impressively written on the sign.

"Qingzhuju, that's right, it's Qingzhuju, and I brought him there in person."

Zhao Linglong said with a full face.

"and many more."

She suddenly thought of something, turned her head to look at Lin Buyu, and then asked her very curiously: "Sister Buyu, don't you remember Taiping? How did you recognize it at a glance!"

Lin Buyu looked at Zhao Linglong blankly, then turned his head blankly and said calmly:

"Guess."
