His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rode lightly out of the capital, taking only five escorts with him, and headed for the Peach Grove of Lighting Mountain.
This place is still quite far away from the capital.
And when the news of Lu Qingping's departure from the city reached the ears and eyes of many people in other houses, it caused some undercurrents. However, this was not what Lu Qingping was worried about, because one of the five people accompanying him
Including Sun Ci, the great master of the Yuanshen Palace of Prince Wucheng.
During this period when his son was in the limelight, Lu Qi knew that Lu Qingping had indeed fought for him and the emperor, but he could also predict that after his son gained such a prominent reputation, the threat his son would pose to some people would no longer be as small as before.
The noise rises straight up.
Therefore, after Sun Ci came to the capital, he was specially entrusted by Lu Qi to become a master specializing in protecting Lu Qingping.
Under the protection of such a great master of the soul, I believe that unless it is a powerful god famous on the mountain list, or a land god personally takes action, some low-level practitioners should not even dream of touching a hair of His Royal Highness.
"Li Chunfeng..."
On the way, Sun Cizhen was muttering these three words, and a feeling of confusion arose in his heart.
After Lu Qingping showed Confucian Yugui to Sun Cizhen, she did not hide part of Sun Jingzhi's request and told Sun Cizhen. Speaking of this, she wanted to fulfill Sun Jingzhi's deathbed entrustment and bring this thing to Li Chunfeng.
people.
It had been several days since he told Sun Ci about this matter.
At the same time, Lu Qi naturally knew the news.
But neither the old immortal Sun Ci, who has lived in the world for hundreds of years, nor the powerful King Wucheng Lu Qi in the Southern Sui Dynasty, have never heard of Li Chunfeng in the past few decades or even longer.
The existence of the number one person.
There have never been any legends about him in the world.
But as a friend of Sun Jingzhi, the Confucian scholar and one of the three most influential figures in Xiangshan Academy, Li Chunfeng must not be a simple person.
Such a person has never shown his face in the world, and he really has the meaning of a great hermit.
"In short, the prince must be careful this time. Once his cultivation level far exceeds my expectation, then there will be certain risks in this trip."
Lao Zhenren is usually wary of opponents that he cannot deal with.
Even though Lu Qingping went with Sun Jingzhi's instructions, as an old man who has experienced ups and downs in the world for hundreds of years, he has seen everyone and everything.
It was impossible for him to trust someone he didn't know or understand at all, and he didn't dare to take risks with Lu Qingping.
"Yes, I know." Lu Qingping nodded seriously.
He did feel that it was better to be cautious.
The snow stopped falling yesterday, but the air got colder. His Royal Highness put on a big cloak when he went out and rode on horseback. Under the protection of a group of guards, he looked very noble.
They rode horses all the way, riding the green dragon horse of Prince Wucheng's palace, and soon left the capital. In the afternoon, the group of people arrived at this remote hill three hundred miles away from the capital.
This mountain has a strange appearance, shaped like a candlestick. It does not look like a natural creation, but rather looks like it was excavated by man.
The prince and his party arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Because Li Chunfeng's temperament was not clear yet, Lu Qingping and others dismounted to show that they had no ill intentions. After all, the presence of Sun Ci, a great master, was too eye-catching.
Lu Qingping glanced at the old man next to her, nodded, and signaled to speak.
Only with Master Lao Zhen's level of cultivation can the sound spread throughout this mountain.
"Lu Qingping, the eldest son of Prince Wucheng, came to visit the owner of this mountain and hopes to see him in person."
The old man spoke softly, but his voice blended into the wind, blowing to every corner of the mountain.
It was less than a few breaths after Sun Ci opened his mouth.
Because it was winter, the mountains that looked bare and gray turned out to be full of life, and then there was a sweet fragrance of peach blossoms coming from the mountains.
"Sir, I have already said that someone will come to visit in the near future. Please invite some distinguished guests to come up the mountain."
A clear young voice came from the mountains.
Lu Qingping's heart moved when she heard this.
Did Li Chunfeng already know that they would come?
Even if he knew that Sun Jingzhi had not survived the mission, it was impossible for him to know that he and Sun Jingzhi happened to be in the same incident and promised Sun Jingzhi to send Yu Gui here.
Thoughts flickered in his mind, but he did not stop. Instead, he started to go up the mountain. After a while, when he saw someone, he boldly asked and it became clear.
A group of people went up the mountain, and as they walked further, they saw the scenery in the mountain that was completely different from the one at the foot of the mountain.
Taolin.
Peach blossoms are in full bloom.
It is winter, but the peach blossoms are in full bloom here, violating the seasonal rules. This alone is enough to show that the owner of this place is extraordinary.
Looking at the pink peach trees blooming all over the mountain.
The old master was slightly solemn and said: "It turns out that an illusion was set up on the mountain before, so it can be hidden from the eyes of ordinary people around here. Only those who are allowed to go up the mountain can see the true face of the mountain..."
The illusion is not surprising, but the fact that Sun Ci could not see the clues in the illusion at first shows that the cultivation level of the master here is terrifying.
Even Master Sun Ci could not see through the fact that the bare barren mountains were a cover-up before.
No wonder Li Chunfeng is not well known.
With such a sophisticated method, even Master Yuanshen would not notice the truth here if he passed by, let alone ordinary practitioners.
Based on this alone, the old master secretly judged that Li Chunfeng was a complete hermit. If he walked around the world, he would definitely be among the top immortals on the mountain list.
But it also made him more vigilant.
As they continued to walk forward, a young man in a blue robe gradually appeared among the fragrant peach trees. He looked about the same size as Lu Qingping. He smiled and said: "Sir, only His Royal Highness is allowed to enter the humble residence."
, please also ask other seniors to wait in Taolin."
Sun Cizhen immediately frowned.
Lu Qingping was thinking in her mind at this time, and he had already seen it from Sun Ci's expression just now.
The owner of the peach forest, who Sun Jingzhi said is currently the strongest person in the team of reincarnations on the land of Jambu, is not someone Sun Ci can deal with at all. If the other party wants to take action against him, I am afraid even Sun Ci
Having a real person accompanying you doesn't help either.
So, now that we are here.
Lu Qingping nodded to the old man: "Then you wait here, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I can."
The old man originally wanted to frown and say something to the young man who was leading the way, but he thought about it and nodded.
We can only hope that the deterrent power of Prince Wucheng's Palace will be effective against the owner, so that even if he has any evil intentions, he will have to take the prince's existence into consideration.
The peach blossoms are blooming, but the road is not long.
After Lu Qingping said goodbye to the old man temporarily, she followed the young man who led the way. She didn't see anyone else along the way. After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but said curiously:
"I haven't asked you, little brother, what do you call me?"
The young man smiled and spoke very politely: "My name is A Deng, and I am your husband's son. Only my husband and I live here. His Royal Highnesses are the only ones who have entered this place in the past hundred years, except for those uncles."
stranger."
A Deng answered the conversation with a questioning tone. Lu Qingping stopped talking and asked directly, "A Deng, your husband should also be a senior practitioner with a high level of spiritual practice. Why do you want to live in seclusion here?"
"This..." A Deng looked hesitant, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
Seeing this, Lu Qingping smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't say it."
A Deng smiled kindly at Lu Qingping, as if thanking the young man for his understanding.
Soon we arrived at the end of the peach grove. At the end of the peach grove, there was a farmhouse-like house.
A Deng led Lu Qingping here, pointed to a guest room in the courtyard, and said: "Sir's phantom clone is waiting for the prince inside the house."
Phantom clone?
The real person is not in Deng Deng Mountain?
Lu Qingping was immediately surprised. He only had some strange emotions for a short time, but without saying anything more, he nodded to A Deng and walked towards the room.
This place is no different from a small farmhouse.
Lu Qingping even noticed that there was smoke coming from the stove chimney in the courtyard. It seemed that A Deng was cooking in the kitchen before coming out to pick her up.
The door of the house was open, but the surrounding windows were not open, but the house was very bright from the outside, as if a lamp was lit inside.
Lu Qingping walked directly in and immediately saw the back of a man wearing a sky blue robe inside the house.
Before he could speak.
The man turned his back to him and spoke first, with a mellow voice that made people feel like a spring breeze, "When Jingzhi didn't return, Li knew that he would stay in reincarnation forever and could no longer see me again. However,
However, after I came out of reincarnation, I sensed a trace of his aura on the land of Jamfu. I thought that he met a person in reincarnation during the incident and delivered something. But because Li had to go to the south for an urgent matter.
You can’t stop in Xinjiang on your trip, so I can only wait for you here for a while.”
After finishing speaking, Li Chunfeng turned his head.
This is a man with a very noble and elegant appearance.
After listening to the words of this reincarnation senior, Lu Qingping solved the mystery of why he knew that she would come to visit and waited specifically for him.
Under Li Chunfeng's gaze, Lu Qingping took out the jade guide and said: "Senior Sun Jingzhi asked me to hand this over to the senior. Please give it to the Confucian sect on your behalf..."
However, regarding Lu Qingping's action of "returning" Yu Gui today.
Li Chunfeng just looked at Yugui, and then shook his head: "I can't accept this thing now, and I need to ask you to keep it for a while."
"Why?"
Lu Qingping showed complete surprise.
You have already delivered it to your door, why should you keep it by yourself?
There is no use keeping this thing with him now. He is still waiting to return it. The Confucian sect owes him a favor, or what kind of reward Li Chunfeng can promise him would be more practical.
As a result, when Li Chunfeng said these words, did he think that his trip was in vain?
