Looking at the earth and stone road sloping from the official road into the mountain, Li Yan took a deep breath. When he left, it was on this earth and stone road that Uncle Guo Xin's carriage sat with the crying Li Shan and Li
Yu left the place where he was born and raised, and Li Yan's ears seemed to hear the rumble of a carriage and the cries of his mother and fourth sister in the wind.
Seeing Li Yan standing by the roadside in a daze, the two girls couldn't help but look at each other. The three of them had put away their magic weapons when they were hundreds of miles away from Daqing Mountain. There were already hunters coming and going from there occasionally, which was not good.
Flying in the air.
After falling, in view of Gong Chenying and Zhao Min's stunning appearance, Li Yan didn't want to cause trouble, so he asked them to transform into bamboo hats and green gauze to cover their faces, and then walked out of Daqing Mountain, and it was already noon.
On the official road of Qingshan Pass, walking on the pipeline, the three of them were dressed like this. Li Yan and Gong Chenying were still wearing dark green robes, and Zhao Min was dressed in white. The three of them were very eye-catching, but they also attracted a lot of attention.
On the way, business travelers and passers-by looked sideways, but fortunately, at noon, there were not many people coming and going here. After walking for about ten miles, we arrived at the entrance of the small mountain village.
They walked all the way, and according to the cultivation level of the three of them, they couldn't even break a sweat. Gong Chenying and Zhao Min also talked less, but Zhao Min walked in the middle of the road, but he had a strange look on his face, and looked at the roadside from time to time.
There are flowers and plants and passers-by who occasionally look sideways at them, their eyes full of curiosity.
Although there is spiritual energy in this world, it is almost negligible. All she smells in her nose is the earthy smell of natural vegetation. No one she meets has any spiritual energy fluctuations. Occasionally, a carriage passes by.
, according to her consciousness, she could easily see clearly that inside the large carriage on the carriage was an old woman dressed elegantly, with her gray hair combed spotlessly. She leaned against the wooden wall of the carriage and moved her body in front of the carriage.
Swaying slightly while walking, he was half-squinting in sleep. There was a maid beside him gently shaking a fan. There was a large low table in the middle of the car. There were several beautiful women beside the table. While they were teasing each other, you said, "Hong'er, this is
It's time for Sichun, it must be the eldest son of the Liu family who handed you the brocade handkerchief..." She said, "Second sister, you are so tongue-tied, I just saw you wrapping a sachet and walking out from behind the courtyard gate a few days ago..."
"You...you...shut up, let me not tear your little girl's mouth apart..." The girls made a fuss while laughing, and from time to time they picked up the watery grapes on the table and put them into small mouthfuls of cherries.
Among them, the old woman who was pretending to be sleeping half-closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but her face was full of smiles. The carriage rumbled away amidst the sound of the coachman's soft drink...
Those words fell into Zhao Min's ears, and her jade-like snow earlobes suddenly burned with red clouds. She felt an unknown emotion in her heart about something she had never experienced before. Thinking of those women, she
I couldn't help but think of Gong Chenying, who had been with me since childhood. Even the two of them were practicing every day at that time. They couldn't say a few words for several days. They were not as carefree and carefree as the girls in the car just now. I couldn't help but feel sad.
Just thinking about the loving tones spoken by those women again, Zhao Min's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate. Remembering that she also had the sachet in her arms that her mother had given her when she was a child, she couldn't help but look at Li Yan who was walking in front of her through the green gauze. At this moment, Gong Chenying seemed to accidentally hold her hand from one side, which shocked her. She felt like someone had peeked into her mind, and her hand was being held.
She couldn't help but tremble slightly, and her face turned a little red. Gong Chenying also looked back at the carriage that was going away, and her heart was also filled with waves.
Along the way, Zhao Min met various people. There was a young couple holding farm tools. When he saw the three of them, he stared at the three of them with strange eyes. He seemed to be shocked by the otherworldly temperament of the three of them.
They looked envious, and then slowly walked away while whispering to each other...
There are also powerful people from all walks of life galloping past with their horses and whips raised, their whistles bringing up dust and rolling away...
There was also a strong man in coarse cloth and short sleeves, with a three- or four-year-old child riding on his neck. The child's buttocks kept rising and falling, and he called out in a childish voice, "Drive, drive, drive..." The strong man couldn't help laughing and scolding, and raised his hand to pat the child's buttocks.
"Do you think I'm that beast? Damn you..."
The business travelers were also traveling in a group of carriages and horses, and they looked extremely alert when meeting people. From time to time, knights and horses were running around the carriages filled with goods, but their eyes were looking sharply around. When they saw Li Yan and the three of them, they were also very alert.
Nong, seeing that the three of them had no intention of getting closer, they followed the caravan and drifted away after a few glances.
Zhao Min had never heard of or seen all these things, and her beautiful eyes flashed continuously. Even Gong Chenying's state of mind was touched in some way after seeing these, and the long-standing fake elixir realm was actually a little looser, which made her
I couldn't help but feel surprised and doubtful.
Li Yan was eager to return home, and he was used to this. When he was traveling between Military Advisor Valley and Qingshan Pass City, this kind of thing happened every day.
Standing at the intersection, Li Yan took a deep breath while his thoughts were surging. He looked back at the two women who had been silent. He smiled slightly, then took a step forward and stepped on the path. But when he stepped on the path
At that moment, given his cultivation level, he actually felt his hands and feet trembling.
The mountain road is winding, with a mountain wall on one side and green grass on the other. The three people walked into it. The sounds on the official road behind them gradually became distant. After several turns, only the silence of heaven and earth, the sound of the three people stepping on the ground, and the wind blowing on the mountain wall were left.
The foxtail grass that stretches to the sky makes a rustling sound.
"You...you lived here when you were a child?" While walking, a clear voice sounded behind Li Yan. Li Yan was stunned when he heard the words. This was Zhao Min's voice. She had basically never spoken to him during this trip, and most of them
He whispered softly to Gong Chenying, but Li Yan meditated alone for most of the time. Gong Chenying felt that he was neglecting Li Yan several times, and occasionally took the initiative to say a few words to Li Yan apologetically.
A smile appeared at the corner of Li Yan's lips, he turned around and said with a smile, "This place is already away from the mountain."
The village is not far away. We turn four more corners and we are there. I used to come here often when I was a child. I would go wild with my third brother and my playmates in the village, go fishing in the river, and hunt for birds in the trees. There are also many places nearby.
I have traveled all over, so this is the same place, but every time I come out, it is not necessarily this place that is the target. It may be somewhere else, but when I get playful, I wander around, and I can also go from another direction.
Just came here."
When Li Yan said this, even Gong Chenying felt a little envious. She also thought of her childhood. Although she lived in the mountains, like Zhao Min, she had no playmates, only the rules and blood of the clan.
The constant competition between them forced her to keep practicing hard.
"Oh, catching fish and birds every day, is this fun?" Zhao Min looked at Li Yan strangely.
After hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "It's easy for immortal cultivators to raise their hands and take pictures of objects from a distance. We are all mortals, and there is fun in fishing. It's a kind of waiting for the opportunity.
The joy of success and failure coexists, and it can also be done through ground cages, or by sealing a section of the river. The process is the happiest. Climbing trees to dig out birds is also..."
As he was speaking, Li Yan suddenly frowned and raised his head sharply to look at the top of the mountain on one side. At the same time, the two women behind him also raised their heads.
"Why are there immortal cultivators here?" Gong Chenying's voice came over. After the three of them came to the official path, their spiritual consciousness had converged, but their powerful cultivation kept their spiritual consciousness around them.
surround.
Li Yan's face turned gloomy. What was the purpose of the immortal cultivators appearing here and so close to his home? He glanced back and forth with his consciousness and found that there was no one else on the mountain road at this time. In a flash, he had already moved from where he was.
They disappeared, and Gong Chenying and Zhao Min were also blurred, with no traces left.
On the top of the mountain, two monks in black robes had stood up from crossing their legs and were looking around hesitantly. Just now, three people appeared in their consciousness, but the fierce three people had lost their breath.
"This...is this a monk?" One person looked around cautiously.
Another man in black robes was using his consciousness at full strength, but except for the villagers in the distance, there was no breath of the three people just now in his consciousness. Sweat broke out on his face and he couldn't help but drink softly in a low voice.
"Who's sneaking around here?"
His words sent chills down the back of the man in black robe who asked the question before. He knew that this senior brother was a master in the sect. Judging from the sweat on his forehead, he didn't seem to notice him at all. He also gave a light drink: "
Who is this fellow Taoist, please show up and meet me."
While the two asked questions, they couldn't help but reach out to the storage bags on their waists.
"If it were me, I wouldn't think of taking out the magic weapon." As soon as the two men in black robes touched the storage bag, there was a cold sound. A voice suddenly sounded from one side, and then as the two of them were stunned, a figure suddenly appeared two feet away from them, and the space was slightly distorted. This figure appeared so abruptly, without making any sound at all, and it was so far away from them.
Very close, just as the two of them were horrified, another bone-cold voice sounded from behind them, "Are you disciples of the Blood Leaf Sect?"
This sound made the two of them feel like they had fallen into an ice kiln. They turned around hurriedly and found two people wearing green gauze and bamboo hats standing there. The voice sounded like a woman.
But the auras of the three people who suddenly appeared made the two of them feel weak, and they felt as if they had met the ancestors of the sect. The man in black robes was the first to shout softly, and the person who asked after hearing it seemed to know them.
The sect, feeling a little relaxed, bit the bullet and made a half-circle bow towards the three of them, and spoke hurriedly.
"Junior Xueye Zongxu is here, Wang Wuyi pays homage to the three seniors."
"As expected, they are from the Blood Leaf Sect. What are you two doing here?" Li Yan narrowed his eyes. He had just noticed that the two of them were wearing Blood Leaf Sect clothes, so he didn't take action immediately, and he could clearly see the Blood Leaf Sect clothes.
Finally, he had thought of some possibilities.
"Three seniors, we are here to wait for the family of a monk who is here. This monk is a monk from the Demon Sect." The monk who called himself Xu Shi hurriedly spoke. The two of them are masters in the sect, and their cultivation levels are also high.
They had reached the ninth and eighth levels of Qi Condensation respectively, but the auras of the three people in front of him were terrifying. He felt that the other party could kill both of them with just one thought, so he hurriedly said it, and was afraid that these three people would die.
He was a monk passing by here, and he would take action without waiting for him to explain clearly, and hurriedly moved the Demon Sect out.
When Gong Chenying and Zhao Min heard this, they couldn't help but look at Li Yan with strange expressions on their faces. Li Yan felt relieved after hearing this. It was just as he guessed, but he still said coldly, "Family of the monks of the Demon Sect?
Why do you need to wait here?"
When Xu Shi heard this, he continued to ask, and he also heard the softening of Li Yan's tone. He couldn't help but feel relieved, and secretly thought that he was lucky enough to seize the opportunity quickly and tell the story about the Demon Sect, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain. But he still
He was respectful and did not dare to raise his head. He and Wang Wuyi continued to answer respectfully, "This is because my sect, Master Xueye, received an order from three monks from the Sprite Sect four years ago. He asked me to wait for one and two nearby families to take turns waiting here. No two families on the border were allowed to come."
This dynasty has done some harm to this place."
"Oh? What's the name of the person you're waiting for in this mountain village?" Li Yan's words became softer.
"This...this mountain village is all named Li, but this Shangzong monk was originally from the Qingshan Pass Army and joined the Demon Sect four years ago." Xu Shi heard Li Yan's softened voice and felt more relieved.
It seems that no one dares to mess with the name of the Sprite Sect, it's just that the question is strange.
But he didn't know that Li Yan asked the question deliberately. With his carefulness, he seemed to be casual, but he deliberately casually confirmed the truth and falsehood of what the two said.
