Bai Rou has not been this happy for many years. Of course, apart from being happy, the rest of what she saw and heard could only be a series of shocks.
She was like a village girl who came from the countryside. She had seen so many magic weapons, elixirs, and raw materials that she couldn't even name. It was such a dazzling array of things, one after another.
The good things she encountered made her beautiful eyes shine again and again, but after purchasing a few materials, she just admired them.
Of course these things are really good, but the price they require is also really high.
Naturally, Bai Rou can only take a look at the back, but even this has opened Bai Rou's horizons. This is the meaning of experience.
Traveling around the world is not just about intrigues and fighting, but more importantly, it is about broadening your horizons, enriching your experience and knowledge, and learning to hide yourself.
Li Yan's experience in the outside world is extremely rich!
So six years after they came out, except for the first four years when they were flying in remote barren mountains, they did not encounter any danger.
In the next two years, I encountered being followed three times, and Li Yan resolved them one by one in the end.
In fact, these were just a few times that Bai Rou knew more clearly. Li Yan would not take the initiative to mention those monks that Li Yan secretly killed or directly threw away.
The understanding of the fairy world can be gained step by step. Otherwise, if Bai Rou knows too much inside information at once, she may still ask to hide in the spirit storage space for fear of harming herself.
Moreover, they later arrived at a more prosperous place. Li Yan would often enter cities or markets and rent teleportation arrays one after another, which made Bai Rou feel ashamed.
She originally thought that she still had a lot of spiritual stones on her body, but it was because after Yu Niang knew that her sect was about to ascend to the upper world, she hung up a few more storage bags filled with spiritual stones and jade slips on her body.
But after buying materials several times, Bai Rou realized how poor she was, and Li Yan never let her pay for these transmission fees.
Bai Rou took it out several times, but was rejected by Li Yan with a smile.
Although Bai Rou is reserved, she is a smart person. Every time Li Yan bargains with others behind her back, he does not want to put any psychological burden on himself.
She also knew that if she wanted to return these spiritual stones, she would have to wait until she had established herself in the fairy world, so she made a mental note of the approximate teleportation distance of each time.
With Li Yan's scheming mind, he had already read through Bai Rou's thoughts, and Senior Sister Bai had already asked him for a map of the burned jade slips.
Every time she went to a place where the teleportation array was rented, she would take out the jade slip map to confirm the teleportation destination. In his heart, he was amused by Senior Sister Bai's thoughts.
But how could he point it out, so that Senior Sister Bai would not be extremely embarrassed.
…………
On this day, in a valley, Li Yan was walking slowly behind, while Bai Rou in front was constantly looking around, with a look of reminiscence in her eyes.
When Li Yan was flying the "Cloud Piercing Blade", Bai Rou suddenly asked him if he could stop for a moment. Li Yan was stunned for a moment.
"I...I saw a valley below, I want to go have a look!"
"Oh, what valley? What's the problem?"
Li Yan couldn't help but ask, he didn't notice anything unusual around him. Could it be that the senior sister had sensed something? The flying speed suddenly slowed down.
"The valley is already four thousand miles behind. There is no problem. It just feels a bit like the place in Mu Liumen where I...I often practice!"
Bai Rou said a little embarrassed.
The moment she opened her mouth, the valley was far behind her, and the dark red blade under her feet was too fast.
"Then go back and take a look!"
Li Yan didn't hesitate at all. He knew that Senior Sister Bai was homesick. Muliusmen was her home in her heart, and the Demon Sect was her master's sect.
Li Yan certainly has a deep understanding of the feeling of being able to see a scene similar to his hometown in a place far away...
In the valley, Bai Rou was walking in front, her eyes full of memories. The environment here was sixty-seven times similar to the valley behind the sect.
She just thought of Mu Liumen. It was impossible for Bairou to integrate into a strange place in a few years. She was a bit timid by nature, so of course she liked to stay in the place she was most familiar with.
But before, just a quick glance of her consciousness gave her a sudden urge to stay here.
Li Yan followed slowly behind. Neither of them spoke. Only the wind between heaven and earth kept blowing here, causing the grass here to sway, making the place even more desolate.
Li Yan could feel the faint sadness emanating from Bai Rou. Li Yan had been in this situation before.
Not only is there sadness for the deceased relatives, but there is also a longing for the homeland that is engraved in the bones.
This made Li Yan look at Bai Rou and see himself standing at the entrance of the mountain village. The sky was still the same sky, and the white clouds were still like passing white clouds.
But today, the flowing clouds in the sky and the earth have become like the customs of a foreign country. All the changes have made him unwilling to face the vicissitudes of life.
As far as the eye can see, the village entrance, big trees, bluestone road, and the layout of the village that should exist in the memory have long been changed beyond recognition.
The memory in his heart, which he didn't really want to evoke, would inadvertently remind him of the scenery, clouds, and people of his hometown...
Of course, Li Yan is not a sentimental person, but when he is with Bai Rou, the quiet tenderness in her body seems to remind you of the girl next door in your childhood.
Since we are neighbors, we have the memories of that time, including my fourth sister, and the village girl who is about the same age as my fourth sister...
"The sky and the earth are long, the seas are changing, and the end of the road is full of endless memories and sighs for immortality, or is it just to cover the sky with your hands and stir up the storm?"
Li Yan looked at Bai Rou's back and couldn't help but think in his heart.
After he entered the immortal road, he realized how dangerous it was. At that time, he only thought that he could be with his relatives and live a happy life.
But to this day, I have never had a free and easy life, and my life of leisurely clouds and wild cranes is still in one whirlpool after another.
As a result, the relatives around him are also trapped in it. This is of course not his fault, but this is the nine dangers and eighteen turns on the road to immortality.
But what about after passing through some dangerous shoals? I may be like Master Dongfu and Second Uncle, so powerful that the world will change color, but I still have to walk on this path...
One after another, in silence, both of them were thinking about their own thoughts, as if everything here began to slow down and soften...
Half an hour later, Li Yan and Bai Rou stood side by side at the edge of the valley. They looked down, with some kind of reminiscence in their eyes.
The open wind blew the soft white silk hair, which carelessly brushed her pretty face and patted her smooth forehead.
The two of them looked down quietly, their eyes quickly regaining clarity, and Bai Rou knew that she was leaving here.
At this moment, they suddenly looked towards a corner in the valley, where a red line slid across the ground and burrowed into the grass.
"Woo!"
A strong gust of wind suddenly fell from the sky and hit the grass directly.
"squeak!"
A sharp scream came from the grass in an instant.
A goshawk's huge iron-feathered wings slapped the ground hard, making a continuous thumping sound of "bang bang bang...".
And under its pair of sharp claws, it had already caught a fox whose fur was like fire, and the fox's back was deeply embedded by its sharp claws.
It let out a sharp, painful neighing sound and struggled desperately on the ground, causing the grass blades there to fly around and dust to fly.
The goshawk's eyes were full of ferocity, and its huge beak, which was like an iron hook with a cold light, pecked hard at the back of the fiery red fox's head.
However, the fiery red fox twisted its body and kept swinging its head at the same time, causing the goshawk to peck off target again and again without hitting the vital point.
But it also caused the flesh and blood to turn around in many places on the head and neck of the fiery red fox, and the fiery red and soft fur was all in pieces in an instant.
As the goshawk's huge wings flapped, wisps of hair and flesh, as well as the broken grass and mud nearby, were shaken up and flew around.
The goshawk was also angry. Its attacks were quick and accurate, but no matter how hard it tried, it tried to pin down the opponent with a pair of sharp claws, but it couldn't succeed.
It suddenly flapped its wings, trying to grab the fiery red fox on the ground, then carry it high into the air and throw it to death.
But this flaming red fox was similar in size to itself, and it was twisting like crazy, so it was not easy to lift it off the ground.
But the goshawk is a bird of prey in the sky after all. With a cry of eagle, its entire body suddenly rises from the ground.
"Stab it!"
A blood arrow spurted high, and the goshawk figure soared into the sky.
However, under its sharp claws, it did not lift the body of the flaming red fox, but tore off a large mass of flesh on its back.
It turned out that the fiery red fox felt that death was coming. At the moment when the goshawk flapped its wings and raised its head high, it seized that fleeting opportunity.
At that time, it suddenly stopped twisting its body, and its head no longer swayed around, but pressed it to the ground with all its strength.
At the same time, at that moment, the sharp teeth in its mouth bit into a piece of the ground and sank into the ground, exposing a small half of the edge of the boulder.
You could even hear a crisp "click" sound, and then the mass of flesh and blood on its back was torn away by the goshawk's huge force.
It also lifted the back half of the flaming fox's body high into the air. After the huge force flipped up its two hind legs, it almost flipped its entire body belly upwards.
Just when the goshawk suddenly felt something was wrong in the air and felt a sudden light under its claws, the body of the fiery red fox had already twisted hard on its waist and landed heavily on the ground!
In fact, before its hind limbs even hit the ground, the flaming red fox endured the severe pain, slammed its two forelimbs onto the ground, and rushed forward with all its strength.
And it wasn't until it had already rushed out that a sun-reflecting blood arrow shot up in the air behind it, mixed with two streaks of mud and stone debris that its forelimbs had dug out backwards due to excessive force...
…
When the goshawk circled in the sky and swooped down again, except for the broken fur scattered on the ground and a bright red, there was no trace of the fiery red fox anywhere.
The goshawk was circling rapidly in the sky in search of something, and it couldn't help but let out a series of sharp hawk cries. After circling for a while, it suddenly soared into the sky.
After another long-lasting eagle cry that seemed to be filled with unwillingness, the figure turned into a black dot as the sky and the earth reverberated, and it flapped its wings and flew away...
Li Yan and Bai Rou had been standing at the edge of the valley, watching the scene just now.
Just now, it was just two beasts fighting each other. Although it only lasted for more than ten breaths, the process was tragic and short.
But for the two of them, this process was of course too long, but neither of them took action, they just stood at the edge of the valley and looked down.
While they were on the road all day long, they just sensed people killing people, monsters killing people, people killing monsters, and there were too many of them.
And hunting among wild beasts like this can be seen almost everywhere as long as they leave the city or market for a moment.
If one scans with the powerful spiritual consciousness of a monk, this kind of thing happens almost all the time. In this valley, there are too many insects, ants, rats and snakes, who are desperately fighting each other.
It's just that the movement of the two beasts just now was too loud, which made the two of them take a second look, but they didn't think of taking action to help either party.
But after the goshawk flew away, Bai Rou suddenly said.
"Let's go over and take a look!"
"Senior sister, do you want to save that fox?"
"It is decisive, but with that kind of injury, it will probably end up being the prey of other beasts."
Bai Rou thought for a moment, and the reason why she suddenly said this was because of the behavior of the flaming red fox when it escaped at the last moment.
The opponent's final grasp of the opportunity and determination were very decisive.
At that time, its body and head suddenly stopped twisting completely, as if the goshawk was just fluttering its wings deceptively at that time.
If he then pecked it hard with his giant beak again, the fiery red fox would have only one fate, and that would be that his brain would burst immediately.
"Okay, it may have just gained some intelligence and some flexibility in its consciousness, but it is still a beast!"
Li Yan smiled.
Bai Rou did not speak, but just flew to the corner of the valley with her feet on the ground, her white clothes fluttering like a fairy flying across the sky.
"It's this mountain crevice!"
As soon as Bai Rou landed there, she looked towards the bottom of the mountain, but her feet were suspended a few feet above the ground to avoid the dirty blood on the ground.
Li Yan also came behind her. In fact, they had already known that the fiery red fox had entered the mountain crevice.
Even if you don't use your spiritual sense to check, once you get here, you can still see a large amount of irregular blood on the stone walls on both sides of the mountain crevice.
That's because when the opponent drilled in, they scratched and stayed on it.
This mountain crevice is at the bottom of the mountain. It is only about one foot from the ground up, and it is not very wide. It is only as wide as two adult fists.
This makes it difficult for even a child to get into. There are many such cracks in the entire valley, large and small.
Although the crack in the mountain is very narrow, what is the problem for the cultivators? Even if there is no crack, they can still use earth escape to enter the mountain.
After Bai Rou finished speaking, her body suddenly became illusive and then disappeared. Li Yan also smiled slightly when he saw this.
This Senior Sister Bai is still kind-hearted. If it were him, he might not have even looked at her just now. At most, he would have left directly after his spiritual consciousness swept away.
However, they have a long journey. In the past few years, apart from stopping in towns, they have been constantly on the road.
Senior Sister Bai's mood changed today because of this valley, so I would just stay with her for a while longer.
"There is a big cave behind here!"
Soon, Bai Rou's voice came over, and Li Yan also entered the mountain. After they entered the mountain crevice, they found that this narrow mountain crevice continued to extend all the way inside.
Moreover, as this mountain gap goes back, the gap is getting bigger and bigger. After about ten miles, it can actually accommodate the height and width of an adult.
And behind, a deep and dark cave suddenly appeared.
When they came to the valley before, they were just checking for any dangerous aura fluctuations. There were too many mountain crevices like this in the entire valley, especially those beast caves, which were countless.
Of course, the two of them won't explore them one by one, because they are full of food. Just the fact that the underground ant caves extend in all directions will probably make people dizzy.
Therefore, when they saw the flaming red fox entering the mountain crevice, they thought that it would reach the end of the mountain if it could extend for about ten feet at most, but they did not want to go deeper and deeper.
