I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 166 Today is an auspicious day, why not...

Shi Qingxuan stared at the face in front of him and said softly, "Brother Shen, you are suppressing me."

"I know." Shen Lang nodded gently, "Qingxuan, you smell so good."

Shi Qingxuan laughed heartily and said, "If I hadn't been so stinky, you wouldn't have suppressed me and followed me here? Brother Shen, since you know so much about the Demon Sect, could you promise Qingxuan one thing?"

"What's the matter?" Shen Lang asked, "Do you want to pass on some burden to me?"

Shi Qingxuan stared at him. "Is Brother Shen so good at guessing what's on girls' minds? May I ask, Brother Shen, in your wanderings across the martial arts world, have you ever caused many women to fall in love with you?"

"I don't know about that, but maybe there is," Shen Lang said frankly, "but I've always been casual about relationships. I don't have any special hopes or expectations. I just take things as they come. If I do want something, it's to be free, to live in seclusion in the mountains, or to visit some beautiful fairyland, to live a life that is worthwhile."

Shi Qingxuan was silent for a long moment, then slowly said, "To be honest, my thoughts are very similar to yours, the only difference being one's preference for movement and the other for stillness. In my mind, my ideal lifestyle is to live in seclusion in the mountains, delving into my favorite skills and knowledge, using them to entertain myself, and spending my life in peace. So, I hope Brother Shen can help me with something."

Shen Lang nodded and said, "Qingxuan, what do you need my help with? If it's something I can do, I will do my best to help."

Shi Qingxuan continued, "Since you've somehow gotten yourself into this, Qingxuan will naturally tell you the truth. It would be best if we could transfer this suffocating burden onto your shoulders."

"If it's a matter of the Demon Sect, I will certainly take action to deal with it if I come across it." Shen Lang nodded without hesitation, "But..."

"But what?" Shi Qingxuan asked puzzledly.

Shen Lang stretched out his hands to her waist and said with a smile: "I asked you to help me wash my face, I can't let you go like this."

Shi Qingxuan kept laughing and said, "No, no, I'm really ticklish..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lang's hands did not stop, and his movements were very fast, scratching everywhere.

Shi Qingxuan's delicate body twisted and she laughed sweetly, "Okay, I beg for mercy, please forgive me, I'm really ticklish..."

Shen Lang said, "Miss Qingxuan, your skin is so smooth, can I touch it?"

Shi Qingxuan couldn't stop laughing because of the tickling, and said, "No, Brother Shen, how can you take off my clothes..."

She was laughing so hard that she was exhausted and gasping for breath.

Shen Lang said, "It wasn't me who took off your clothes. It was you who twisted and turned to get them free."

As he spoke, his face was already close to Shi Qingxuan's.

Shi Qingxuan only felt that his face was very hot, just like his hands, and even his breath was extremely hot.

The tickling on her waist made her whole body feel weak, even her heart was floating away, flying straight into the sky, and beyond the ninth heaven.

She giggled softly and whispered softly: "Brother Shen, Qingxuan has given in, please forgive me..."

He begged for mercy while twisting his body and struggling.

Quiet.

A long period of silence.

It's not like half an hour or an hour has passed.

Shi Qingxuan then spoke slowly, "Qingxuan is not related to you in any way, and I have no beauty for you to covet, yet you treat me like this. Since we are like this now, you should stop pushing my burden away, and carry it on your shoulders."

She was not wrong, because her appearance had been disguised. When she met You Niaojuan and others last night, she installed an ugly fake nose on herself, which made her look very ugly.

Shen Lang asked, "So is it to eradicate the Demon Sect, or something else?"

"We'll talk about this later." Shi Qingxuan was silent for a moment, then said, "I want to ask you something, and you must answer me honestly."

"You said."

Shi Qingxuan slowly took off her veil. "This is how I look. Do you regret what you did just now?"

What should have been flawless beauty under the veil was ruthlessly ruined by a disproportionately high and badly jointed fake nose, which is so sad that it is hard to bear to watch!
If you remove this ugly nose, any other part of her face can be compared with Li Xiuning and Shan Wanjing, especially her black eyes that are as bright as gems, which have a mysterious and fascinating charm that is as eternal as ever.

But all this was maliciously interfered with by the hateful fake nose, so Shen Lang never took off her veil.

However, her face was now completely red, but the color of her fake nose remained the same, not matching her complexion.

Shen Lang pretended not to notice and said seriously, "To be honest, I'm face-blind. I don't know what you look like at all! I'm like this to you not because you're pretty, but because I don't even know if you're pretty or not."

"What do you mean you don't know what I look like? You don't know if I'm pretty or not?" Shi Qingxuan asked doubtfully.

Shen Lang said, "I only know that when I saw you, your whole body seemed to be radiant with a layer of divine light, so beautiful that it was beyond description. It was an indescribable feeling, a feeling that made me pursue it regardless of everything."

Shi Qingxuan was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Do I still make your heart flutter now?"

Shen Lang nodded and said, "The more I look at her, the more beautiful she becomes. This is what I say from the heart, not just to please you on purpose."

Shi Qingxuan said angrily, "Don't lie, you must have seen through my fake nose, right?"

Shen Lang shook his head: "But before this, I didn't know your nose was fake. I love your inner self, not your appearance."

"Okay, let's assume what you said is true." Shi Qingxuan smiled slightly and said, "I was planning to show you what I look like without my prosthetic nose, but since you said that, I'm going to give up the idea!"

Shen Lang smiled but didn't say anything.

Shi Qingxuan was a little curious, "Why are you laughing so strangely?"

"You said your nose was fake. Whether I removed it myself or you did it yourself, it was all because of your beauty." Shen Lang said, "It's better to just ignore it."

Shi Qingxuan laughed in surprise and nodded, "That's indeed how you deal with me. I've been tricked into falling for you and now I'm asking you about it. You're such a despicable person!"

Shen Lang asked, "I wonder what burden you want to give me?"

"Let's change the way we talk." Shi Qingxuan said, and then pulled out.

A bang.

Giving him a reproachful look, Shi Qing moved her body, adjusted herself a little, and then relaxed her posture, her beautiful eyes looking deeply at him.

After a moment's silence, he spoke in a deep voice, "This matter is not only extremely mysterious, but also involves the intricate grievances and hatreds of several generations. Qingxuan can only give you a brief overview now, and will tell you the details when there is a chance."

"My understanding of the Demon Sect is limited to Xiang Yutian and his four disciples," Shen Lang said. "I'm not very clear about the specific details. It would be best if you could explain clearly what you want me to do."

Shi Qingxuan frowned and said, "Since you know that the highest secret method of the Demon Sect that the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian cultivated in seclusion is called the 'Dao Heart Planting Demon Method', why don't you know other things?"

"I'm not from the Demon Sect, how could I know so much?" Shen Lang shook his head, "It's impossible for me to know everything in the mortal world."

Shi Qingxuan's eyes softened, and she said softly, "Qingxuan is too serious! Let's get back to the point. You know the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian, You Niaojuan, Ding Jiuzhong, Zhou Laotan, and Jin Huanzhen. They must also know about the Evil Emperor's relic."

"I know a little bit." Shen Lang said, and then asked knowingly, "Is it the thing you took out last night?"

When appropriate, you must learn to play dumb and not drag out everything.

Shi Qingxuan shook his head and said, "That's fake, and I've never seen this thing before."

Shen Lang said: "I thought it was really some evil emperor's relic."

Shi Qingxuan continued, "No one has ever seen the Evil Emperor's relic since it fell into Master Lu's hands. Master Lu also broke off relations with Zhu Yuyan because of this relic and took refuge at Pegasus Ranch."

Shen Lang asked, "So the Evil Emperor's relics are at Pegasus Ranch?"

Shi Qingxuan shook her head and said, "The Evil Emperor's relic is not with him. As for where it is hidden, I'm afraid only God knows. Come, I'll take you somewhere. Qingxuan's clothes are still wet and it's very uncomfortable. Let me go change clothes first."

Even though Shi Qingxuan was skilled in martial arts, he still had difficulty walking.

The two walked about three miles and came to a stone house in the mountains.

The environment here is beautiful, with a waterfall and a small lake behind the house and flowers in front of the house. The scenery is very beautiful.

Shi Qingxuan pushed open the wooden door of the stone house and said with a smile, "Come in." Shen Lang stepped into the house. Although the house was small, it was divided into two parts, front and back, by a bamboo curtain. Moreover, it was fully equipped with furniture, sundries and other household necessities. The windows were bright and clean, and it was quiet and pleasant.

Shi Qingxuan opened her red lips slightly and said slowly, "Qingxuan will stay here for the time being. I need to go and perform a song for Uncle Wang. It will only take half an hour to get to Dongping County from here."

A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.

Shen Lang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, chuckled and said, "A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals living there. A river is not famous for its depth, but for the dragons living there."

Although these words are simple, the profound meaning contained in them seems to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

Shi Qingxuan nodded slightly to show her appreciation, and then made a gesture to invite Shen Lang to sit in the chair by the window.

She gently drew aside the curtain, and with light steps, she stepped inside. As she walked, she asked softly, "That sounds quite interesting. Is there anything else to come?"

Shen Lang's eyes followed Shi Qingxuan's figure for a moment, then he retracted his gaze and continued, "This is a humble room, but my virtue is fragrant."

His voice was neither fast nor slow, as pleasant as the gurgling of running water.

Hearing this, Shi Qingxuan chuckled and said, "I can't tell whether you are praising me or speaking the truth."

Then he picked up the comb and gently combed her long, shiny black hair. His movements and posture were extremely attractive.

Shen Lang originally wanted to go in and help her comb her hair and draw her eyebrows.

But seeing that her posture was a little awkward, it was not suitable to proceed with the next course of treatment.

Shi Qingxuan asked again: "Aren't you curious at all about who the original owner of this house was?"

"I think there's no need to be overly curious about many things," Shen Lang said. "Instead, we should spend our time on the right things."

Shi Qingxuan chuckled and said, "Qingxuan, can I ask another abrupt question?"

Shen Lang replied casually: "You say."

Shi Qingxuan nodded and said, "You've been wandering the martial arts world for so long, you must have seen many famous beauties. Is there anyone who has caught your eye?"

"Indeed," Shen Lang said frankly, "A real man should be bold enough to love and hate. There is indeed someone I'm attracted to."

Shi Qingxuan was silent for a while, then slowly asked, "Who has ever won your heart?"

"Shan Wanjing, Li Xiuning." Shen Lang said, "But they are different from you. You prefer quietness, so you must have given me that responsibility for this reason. As long as I can, I will definitely fulfill your wish."

Shi Qingxuan sighed, "Alas, Qingxuan originally felt guilty, but now you can't shirk it. Don't blame Qingxuan."

After a pause, he continued, "Qingxuan wants to change clothes now. Can you close your eyes for a while?"

"Why do you want to close your eyes?" Shen Lang said without hiding anything. "As I said at the beginning, I'm face-blind. If I don't look carefully, what if I recognize the wrong person?"

"I don't know whether what you said is true or false." Shi Qingxuan said, and the sound of undressing and dressing kept coming from behind the curtain.

Then he asked, "Do you know what kind of martial arts 'Dao Heart Planting Demons' is?"

"I know a little bit about it," Shen Lang said. "It's said to be the supreme skill of the Demon Sect, even better than the Heavenly Demonic Technique of the Yin Gui Sect. Furthermore, during the practice, the practitioner's personality and temperament will change, transforming from a demon into a Taoist. But I've never seen what it's like in detail."

Shi Qingxuan said, "Indeed, the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian failed to achieve his full potential when cultivating this technique, and was burned by the devil's fire. However, before his tragic death, he suddenly realized the evil deeds he had done to harm sentient beings in the past, and therefore tried to make amends."

Shen Lang nodded and said, "So he tried to find a way to deal with You Niaojuan and his four disciples."

"That's right. He naturally knew the nature of You Niaojuan and the other four villains, and their evil nature. He exploited their weakness of wanting to replace him and become another generation of the Evil Emperor. He used the Evil Emperor's relic as bait, forcing them to swear a blood curse, vowing that only after they obtained the Evil Emperor's relic and inherited the throne would they be allowed to establish their own sect."

Shi Qingxuan continued, "On the other hand, they secretly informed Zhu Yuyan that the 'Evil Emperor's Relic' had been passed on to these four despicable disciples, and that they should take the blame."

Shen Lang said, "Now that his four henchmen are dead, the location of the 'Evil Emperor's Relic' doesn't seem that important, does it?"

Shi Qingxuan shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The Evil Emperor's relic is the most mysterious and mysterious of the Xieji Sect, a secret technique that has been passed down since the sect was founded. Every generation of Evil Emperors would inject their own essence into it before their death. Anyone who obtains the Evil Emperor's relic can use this essence for themselves, making the Xieji Sect stronger and stronger with each generation, making it unrivaled in the martial arts world."

After thinking carefully for a while, he walked out again.

She had now changed into men's clothing, with a hat covering her hair tied in a bun, and was dressed for a long journey.

Her ugly nose disappeared, but her skin became rough and dark, but even so, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

But deeper down, her beauty is cold and mysterious, perhaps due to her seemingly innate arrogance. To ordinary people, this is a beauty that makes them afraid to approach her, yet they also long for her favor.

But Shen Lang has already started practicing, and it can be basically concluded that she is a woman with a unique style and bold words.

Seeing Shen Lang staring at her, Shi Qingxuan smiled and said, "Why are you staring at Qingxuan with such eyes? Could it be that you are face-blind again and can't recognize Qingxuan's appearance?"

Shen Lang laughed dumbly and said, "I just want to remember your appearance clearly at this moment, so that I won't fail to recognize you next time I see you."

Shi Qingxuan chuckled and said, "I really can't tell whether you're telling the truth or not. Let's get down to business."

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Go on."

"But there's one more thing." Shi Qingxuan asked, "Aren't you curious at all about why I'm dressed like this?"

"If you want to tell me, you will definitely tell me." Shen Lang said.

Hearing this, Shi Qingxuan shook his head helplessly, "Well, you really have mastered the best strategy to deal with Qingxuan. After this matter is over, Qingxuan will naturally return to Shuzhong. Besides, you are here to help me with things, so there is no need for me to stay outside."

"Are you going back to Shu?" Shen Lang asked in surprise.

Shi Qingxuan nodded. "Of course I do. Didn't I say I like to live in seclusion in the mountains and delve into my favorite skills and knowledge? It just so happens that I have plenty of time to do the things I enjoy doing now."

Then he changed the subject, "Let's talk about the evil emperor's relics. What else do you know?"

Shen Lang said, "I don't know how to absorb the essence of the relic. I only know that every leader of the Xieji Sect would inject their essence into the relic before their death. It seems to have become a tradition. By the time of Xiang Yutian, eleven leaders had already donated their essence to the relic, except for those who died suddenly and were unable to do so."

"That's right." Shi Qingxuan nodded, "But you're not curious at all about how to absorb the essence of the relic?"

Shen Lang asked puzzledly: "Why are you curious?"

Shi Qingxuan sighed and said, "I really don't understand you right now. Okay, let's get down to business."

Shen Lang smiled and said, "You say."

Shi Qingxuan said, "The Evil Emperor's relic contains the power of several generations of demon kings, and it is bound to be fought over by masters of both good and evil. Therefore, I want you to protect the Evil Emperor's relic and prevent it from falling into the hands of the evil faction."

Shen Lang was stunned. "All the evil masters? What if Shi Zhixuan wants to rob them?"

Shi Qingxuan looked at him quietly for a long while, then said softly, "If he wants to rob you, you should know what to do."

"I'm afraid I'll kill him." Shen Lang said, "How am I supposed to get along with you then?"

He knew that because of Bi Xiuxin's early death, Shi Qingxuan hated Shi Zhixuan from the bottom of her heart and never wanted to admit that she had such a father. Although they were biological father and daughter, they were as hostile as water and fire.

Although he is good at getting rid of his father-in-law, he is sometimes more secretive.

Shi Qingxuan was silent for a moment, then said softly, "If you capture him for me, I'll invite you to my little valley and play a piece for you with my true face and my whole heart. Are you satisfied with this offer?"

Shen Lang was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "Today is an auspicious day, why not now..."

He added: "Blow..."

Isn't it just makeup?
In just a few strokes, he could restore her true appearance and blow on her.

Just do what you say.

Let Shi Qingxuan play a song willingly.
