Lin Ji listened with interest, but Shen Long said nothing more.
He suddenly frowned slightly.
"The little kid is leaving, but we can't let him run far away, otherwise it will be really troublesome if we lose him."
While speaking, Shen Long had already stood up, put the sword that was nearly a person tall on his back again, and cupped his hand towards Lin Ji.
"Thank you for your hospitality. I'll take my leave."
Lin Ji also wanted to persuade him to stay, but Shen Long just dodged and walked out of the mountain temple. In three steps and two steps, the person was already drifting away.
"What an amazing light body technique." Wu Nan looked on and marveled.
Just from a visual point of view, Shen Long's appearance when he left already seemed like he had shrunk into an inch.
"After all, he is a strong Taoist, so there is nothing surprising." Lin Ji shook his head, but felt a little regretful in his heart.
This was his first time dealing with Shen Long, but he didn't expect that You Tianguan was quite easy-going.
Originally, Lin Ji wanted to see if he could get some shocking news out of him, but now it seems that the news about the old madman is indeed quite big, but it is a bit boring after all.
It’s really annoying to have the heart of gossiping unsatisfied.
Shortly after Shen Long left, the sky finally cleared up.
A heavy snowfall that has lasted for a long time is finally coming to an end.
"We should go." Zhong Xiaoyan said while extinguishing the fire that had been burning for many days.
"The snow hasn't melted yet, what will they do if we leave?" Lin Ji pointed to the people on the other side.
Zhong Xiaoyan looked at Zhou Qian and Xiaomei.
"You two, after we leave, can you make arrangements for these people?"
Zhou Qian responded quickly.
He could finally see that the girl in front of him was not only powerful in cultivation, but she also seemed to be the boss's sidekick, and she belonged to the category of people who could never be offended.
"Miss Zhong, please rest assured. Xiaomei and I will wait until the ice and snow melt and send the people back to the city to settle down before returning to Huanzong."
Zhong Xiaoyan nodded slightly and looked at Lin Ji again.
Lin Ji smiled awkwardly, "You have arranged everything, what else can I do?"
"In that case, Lao Zhou, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It should."
"Understand the difficulty, pack your luggage and set off." Lin Ji said again.
The little bald donkey had already packed his things when Zhong Xiaoyan opened his mouth.
These days Wu Nan also understands that although Lin Ji is the most powerful among the three of them, sometimes Lin Ji's words are not as effective as Miss Zhong's.
Especially something as small as when to set off.
After Wu Nan simply packed his luggage, Lin Ji slightly bowed his hands to the people in the temple.
"Everyone, I have important matters to attend to, so I have to take a step forward and take my leave!"
"Have a nice trip, Mr. Lin."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for taking care of me these days."
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" Lin Ji responded with a smile, and then left the mountain temple with Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan.
It wasn't until he had walked a few miles that Lin Ji looked at Zhong Xiaoyan and asked, "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
"I'm tired of staying in the temple." Zhong Xiaoyan walked forward without looking at Lin Ji.
Lin Ji suddenly realized.
"That's true. Being stuck in the house all day is not very comfortable."
Zhong Xiaoyan glanced at Lin Ji, her expression a bit cold.
Wu Nan stood aside and rolled his eyes.
"Donor Lin..."
"What's wrong?"
"Miss Zhong was probably worried about your health and didn't want to delay it any longer, so she urged you to leave."
As soon as this statement came out, Lin Ji had not yet reacted, but Zhong Xiaoyan immediately became furious.
"You little bald donkey knows nothing, stop talking nonsense here."
"Yes, yes, it's the young monk who talks too much." Gu
"Humph!" Zhong Xiaoyan snorted coldly, rolled her eyes at Lin Ji again, then quickened her pace and walked to the front alone.
Lin Ji also felt aggrieved. Wu Nan said this, "What are you doing for nothing?"
Seeing Zhong Xiaoyan walking away in front, Wu Nan looked at Lin Ji with some complaints.
"Donor Lin, you can't even tell this, yet you still dare to say that you are an expert in flowers. You were bragging to the monk before, right?"
Lin Ji glared at Wu Nan.
"You little bald ass can see it, but you think I can't?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Nan was even more confused and asked suspiciously: "Why didn't you tell me if you saw it?"
"That girl wants to save face and smooth things over."
"The young monk still doesn't understand."
"Pretending to be confused while pretending to understand, do you understand?"
"don't know."
"Then you are really confused." Lin Ji shook his head and was too lazy to talk nonsense to this little bald donkey.
He took a few steps faster and chased after Zhong Xiaoyan.
…
In the second year of Shengyuan.
On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head.
Before we know it, the new year has come to an end and the weather is gradually getting warmer.
The blizzard that swept through Xiangzhou a month ago was obviously the last cry of winter. After the cry, they could only wait to be killed by the spring breeze.
In the south of Xiangzhou, on the branches on both sides of the official road, the tender green buds are filled with dew, making people salivate.
There is freshness in the air.
There is a patch of mud underfoot, and the melting snow will definitely torture pedestrians for a while.
A man, a woman, and a bald man walked slowly forward with their feet in the mud.
The three of them all looked dusty, as if they had not rested for a long time. Although their bodies were extremely clean, the fatigue on their faces could not be hidden.
The outline of the town can be vaguely seen ahead.
"It takes a month to travel across Xiangzhou. It's really tiring." Wu Nan lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes. If he hadn't seen his destination right ahead, he probably wouldn't have had the intention to speak.
"Go your way! Miss Xiaoyan didn't complain, why do you talk so much nonsense?" Lin Ji scolded, and then showed a flattering smile to Zhong Xiaoyan.
"Huh." Zhong Xiaoyan gave Lin Ji a disdainful look.
Such courtesy is obviously not a good thing.
"Where is it in front?" Zhong Xiaoyan suddenly asked.
Lin Ji quickly took out the map. He had looked at the map countless times these days.
"It's Leize County."
After hearing this answer, Zhong Xiaoyan's eyes finally became a little brighter, and she asked in a brisk tone: "Is Leiyun Temple located here?"
"Going back to Miss Xiaoyan, Leiyun Temple is on Leiyun Mountain a few miles outside the county... Well, it's over there."
Lin Ji pointed to a mountain peak in the distance and said.
The mountain is extremely high, towering into the clouds.
Just looking at it from a distance, Lin Ji even felt that Leiyun Mountain was no lower than Panlong Mountain outside the capital.
Zhong Xiaoyan looked in the direction pointed by Lin Ji and stood on tiptoe in a serious manner.
After looking at it for a long time, she looked away.
"Huh... we're finally here."
Hearing Zhong Xiaoyan sigh, Wu Nan on the side said in a low tone: "It turns out that Miss Zhong also knows how tired she is. For a month, it was windy and snowy again, and the road was not easy to walk. She passed through seven or eight counties, but Miss Zhong never thought
Want to take a little rest?"
Zhong Xiaoyan rarely responded, but continued to move forward.
But Zhong Xiaoyan didn't respond, but Wu Nan became more energetic.
"Miss Zhong feels sorry for someone's body, but it's the little monk who is implicated... OK, fine, I just don't say anything."
In the end, Wu Nan was overwhelmed by Zhong Xiaoyan's power and did not dare to talk nonsense.
Of course, the main reason is that Leize County is just around the corner.
