Soon, Lu Huayan's first seventh day passed. Yue Qingru's body quickly improved. After all, he was not suffering any serious internal injuries. But his expression was always a little sad. Obviously, Nangong Qingshan's behavior that day made him very sad.

After the first seven years, Xu Qingfan and Yue Qingru sent Lu Huayan to the ancestral tomb of Jiuhua Mountain. The time was early morning. According to the legend of the vast land of China, the first ray of sunlight in the morning can purify the soul of the dead and clear the sins of the dead during their lifetime. The rising new sun represents the rebirth of the dead.

The morning of Jiuhua Mountain was filled with a faint mist, with few people, and it seemed even more surrounded by fairy spirit. Unfortunately, Xu Qingfan was not in the mood to appreciate it at this time. He felt that this light mist brought some cold and sad atmosphere to Lu Huayan's funeral.

At that time, the only ones who accompanied the two brothers to attend the funeral of Lu Huayan were Lu Huayan's senior brother Xiao Huazhe and a disciple of the leader Zhang Hualing. He came to attend the funeral on behalf of Zhang Hualing. After Lu Huayan was buried, he hurriedly left. Perhaps because Lu Huayan was withdrawn by nature during his lifetime, no other elders and guardians came. Lu Huayan could be said to have left deserted.

Two cups of light wine were poured in front of Lu Huayan's tomb as Xu Qingfan's memorial to Lu Huayan.

According to Master Xiao Huazhe, when Lu Huayan was young, he liked to drink two glasses of wine when he was okay, and the master's wife repeatedly persuaded him. Because of this, the couple who had reached the stage of elixir at that time almost started to fight several times. However, after his master's wife passed away two hundred years ago, the master never drank again, and seemed to have finally listened to the advice of his master's wife. Unfortunately, the master's wife was no longer there at this time.

"When the master's wife saw me sprinkling wine on the master's grave, would she call me an unworthy descendant?" Looking at the drops of sake sprinkled on the grave nourishing the land in front of Lu Huayan's grave, Xu Qingfan suddenly felt this ridiculous thought in his heart. "It shouldn't be that she and his master finally got together again. Now they shouldn't care about me? Besides, the master hasn't drunk for two hundred years, so it's so pitiful."

"Thank you, Master, for coming to see Master off for his last journey today so that Master will not leave too deserted."

Just as Xu Qingfan was standing on Lu Huayan's grave and thinking about it, Yue Qingru's sad voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts. When he looked up, it turned out that Xiao Huazhe was about to leave. So Xu Qingfan hurriedly followed Yue Qingru and bowed to Xiao Huazhe and said sincerely: "On Master, thank you for your visit."

"Hey, I have been with your master for at least seven hundred years. How could I not send him off if he is leaving?" Xiao Huazhe sighed, glanced at Yue Qingru and Xu Qingfan and nodded and said, "You two are good, they are good disciples of Huayan. I believe that Huayan will be very pleased to see you so filial to you."

"Disciple is ashamed of being a disciple." Yue Qingru said hurriedly.

"As a child, these are all duty." Xu Qingfan also said.

"Haha, I dare not take it! I am so dedication! Huayan accepted two good disciples." Xiao Huazhe suddenly seemed to think of something and said to himself. "I don't know if there were any such disciples who died when I died?"

"Your master is very skilled and will definitely live a hundred years old. Oh, it's a long life." Xu Qingfan comforted him when he heard Xiao Huazhe's self-deprecation, but he quickly changed his words halfway.

For these great masters who can maintain their youth for hundreds of years, the saying of longevity is undoubtedly the same as a curse.

"Haha, life is better than Nanshan? How easy is it. Huayan is so talented...ah~~" Xiao Huazhe said sadly, but he was not angry at all because of Xu Qingfan's "curse". "Okay, it's getting late, I'm going to go back to seclusion now. The death of Huayan is very exciting to me. Speaking of which, I'm more than twenty years older than him, and I don't know when I will not be able to stop my destiny. Life is better than Nanshan? Haha, it's not that easy."

Hearing Xiao Huazhe say this, Yue Qingru and Xu Qingfan didn't know how to respond, so they could only bow and say in unison: "Disciple, I respectfully send you my uncle to my uncle, I wish you great success as soon as possible."

With the respectful expulsion between Yue Qingru and Xu Qingfan, a dazzling and colorful rainbow bridge formed under Xiao Huazhe's feet, holding him away quickly. As Xiao Huazhe's departure, a grand and gentle voice echoed between the world.

"Qingfan, I have taken over your master's promise to you for him. If you find that you really cannot avenge your strength in the future, come to me and I will definitely help you destroy the evil."

………

According to the meaning of the head Zhang Hualing, after Lu Huayan was buried, the entire Changchun residence was classified as a guardian of the surname Xu. As a result, on the afternoon of the day when Lu Huayan was buried, Elder Xu sent a disciple and couldn't wait to "discuss" the time to take over Changchun residence with Xu Qingfan.

The disciple named Liu Qingguan looked arrogant and self-righteous when he spoke, which made Xu Qingfan, who was usually elegant and calm, feel the urge to kick him out.

After promising to move out of Changchun that day, Xu Qingfan and Yue Qingru quickly sent away the annoying guy, and then they looked at each other helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"I didn't expect that Uncle Xu could not wait to move in." Yue Qingru said with a wry smile.

"Who made us worse than others? Elder Xu said that there are many disciples and the cave is small, but when his master was there, no one heard the intention of changing it. It would be cold for the tea to leave." Xu Qingfan said lightly.

"Hey, I am a senior brother, it's useless. Even my master's former residence was unable to be kept in the end."

"Senior brother, don't be depressed. Anyway, the magic weapons in the master's relics have been taken away. It's not interesting to guard this former residence. It's just a little sad." Xu Qingfan comforted. After thinking these days, Xu Qingfan had already seen a lot of things.

"Junior brother, tell me, where should we live after leaving Changchun residence?" Yue Qingru nodded silently after hearing Xu Qingfan's words, and then asked again.

"Is there no place to live in Jiuhua Mountain so big?" Xu Qingfan asked with a frown.

"There are some vacant rooms, but if those rooms are either prepared for guests who come to Jiuhua Mountain or for those low-level registered disciples, it would not be appropriate for us to stay." Yue Qingru explained.

After hearing Yue Qingru's words, Xu Qingfan frowned for a while and said decisively: "Then let's go to the back mountain and set up another cave."

"The back mountain? There seems to be no people there. Also, we two have set up another cave without the consent of the master. Is this appropriate?" Yue Qingru asked hesitantly after hearing Xu Qingfan's words.

"Why is it not suitable? Anyway, the head of the sect only drove us out of Changchun, and there was no regulation where we must live. There is indeed no population in the back mountain, but it is precisely because there is no population there that it seems very quiet. Moreover, the wood and Yi energy there is strong, which is suitable for us to live."

I don’t know if it was because Zhang Hualing was careless. After giving Changchun residence to Xu Guardian, he did not specify where Xu Qingfan and the others should live. This invisibly gave the two the right to open a cave by themselves. You must know that at Jiuhua Gate, you can open a cave by yourself, at least only the masters of the Lingji Period will have the right.

In the end, Yue Qingru was convinced by Xu Qingfan and decided to live together in the back mountain.

After making the decision, the two began to pack up their daily necessities and prepared to go to the back mountain to open a cave. Because neither of them wanted to see Elder Xu's annoying disciple coming here again to urge him.

Xu Qingfan had nothing to prepare, just a few wide robes specially used by disciples of Jiuhua Mountain and the "Drunk and Wind and Wind Scroll" given to him by Lu Huayan, the wooden spirit pill and the magic weapon shaking ruler he carried with him. But Yue Qingru had more things, most of which were pens, ink, paper, inkstones and various poetry and books. Fortunately, Yue Qingru could use the Taoist technique of "the universe in the sleeve" to wear some of them. Although Xu Qingfan did not know this kind of Taoist technique, he was light and healthy after practicing immortality all year round, and he could carry three or four big bags on his body.

In this way, the two of them left Changchun's residence where they had lived for a long time with Yue Qingru's pen and poetry.

Before leaving, Xu Qingfan took a last look at Changchunju's familiar but unfamiliar appearance, and thought to himself: "The things I lost today will one day be taken back by Xu Qingfan."

Afterwards, Xu Qingfan walked towards the back mountain with great strides and never looked back.

After arriving at the back mountain, Yue Qingru immediately fell in love with the quietness and vitality of the back mountain, and truly agreed with Xu Qingfan's suggestion to open a cave in the back mountain.

In fact, the so-called cave of immortal cultivators is just to find a place to live, and then set up a layer of spirit gathering array and a layer of defensive formation on the periphery. Although the two of them cannot superimpose double formations. However, if they only set up a single spirit gathering array, it is enough to have Yue Qingru's cultivation level in the late stage of fasting. After all, they are inside Jiuhua Mountain, so there is no need to be afraid of foreign enemies attacking. In addition, after Xu Qingfan took action and squandered the spirit stones that Yue Qingru had accumulated over the past few decades, a simple spirit gathering array was successfully set up.

With Yue Qingru, building two rooms became a very easy thing. A low-level intermediate Taoist method that "gathers spirits into wood", a large amount of wood and Yi energy appeared on the ground in front of Xu Qingfan, and gradually transformed into flat wood. Then, a Taoist method called "control wood and transform shape" was used. The pile of wood automatically gathered together and quickly built two wooden houses with a length and width of about three meters.

All of this made Xu Qingfan surprised to see it. He never expected that Taoist techniques could be used like this. At this moment, Xu Qingfan's intention to learn Taoist techniques became extremely strong.

With his own house, Xu Qingfan's heart, who was already a little confused and empty because he was driven out of Changchun, suddenly became full and stable. This is how people are. As long as there is a place that can be called "home", they will feel extremely at ease. Whether it is a cultivator with great supernatural powers or an ordinary mortal.

When everything is done, it is already evening without realizing it.

Looking at the clear and bright night sky in the back mountain, Xu Qingfan suddenly remembered his only friend in Jiuhua Mountain. He thought that he hadn't seen him for almost four months now, so what's going on now?

Thinking of this, Xu Qingfan's thoughts of meeting Jin Qinghan became extremely strong. He stopped hello to Yue Qingru, who was busy packing his pen, and walked towards the direction where he had often met Jin Qinghan before.
