Zhou Yixian's hand holding the fairy guiding flag froze. He glared at Xiaohuan, who looked at him innocently.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, Tongyanwuji, Tongyanwuji."
Ye Chao looked at this familiar scene and sighed in his heart that this pair of granddaughters were interesting. He said: "Of course, the reward must be necessary. You should know how to get to Shanhaiyuan. Today I will treat you to dinner first, and then we will
Let’s talk about it in detail.”
When he heard about Shanhaiyuan, Xiaohuan's eyes narrowed to look more like the moon, while Zhouxian Xian touched his belly and secretly thought that he would finally be able to have a good meal this time in Heyang City.
Shanhaiyuan is a place of special significance to Ye Chao, because it was here that the protagonist of that earth-shattering love met.
In fact, there is a braised fish here that would impress the future Chef Zhang, and I heard that Master Daoxuan was responsible for moving this dish to the north.
…
The appearance of Shanhaiyuan is a luxuriously decorated two-story building. The building has its own courtyard. The courtyard and the second floor are guest rooms, and the lobby on the first floor is a place for people to eat and drink.
There were not many people eating at this time. Counting Ye Chao and his party, there were only three tables of guests, so it seemed a bit quiet, but it was suitable for people to talk.
Naturally, the dish of braised fish is indispensable on the dinner table. Moreover, the fine wine from Shanhaiyuan is also indispensable. After putting many dishes in the bowl that Ye Chao gave Xiaohuan, Xiaohuan began to eat hard.
At first, he started asking questions and answering questions.
"Uncle, you should know that Qingyun disciples who come down the mountain for the first time are all looking for spiritual materials to refine magic weapons. So, I want to ask you, where can I look for them?"
Zhou Yixian touched the ten taels of silver he had just received in his arms, took another sip of wine, and said: "The world is so big that there are very few places that can breed spiritual materials, and it is impossible for one place to breed too many spiritual materials. Nan
It is impossible to go to Xinjiang. For thousands of years, a bloodthirsty bead appeared there, and later a dragon-slaying sword appeared there.
The desert in the west is not even a place where birds can poop. The East China Sea is okay, but the monsters in the sea are too ferocious. The best place for you to go is the thousands of miles of frozen northern plains, where few people go.
Moreover, Beiyuan has always produced water-type spiritual materials, which are highly compatible with your Qingyun Sect's magic."
If Old Man Zhouxian hadn't touched the silver in his arms when he spoke, if his eyes hadn't been staring at the graceful woman next door, then he would definitely have the temperament of a master now.
"So, are there any powerful monsters or cultivation sects hidden there?"
Zhou Yixian thought about it carefully and said: "There is no cultivation sect, but it is said that there is a powerful monster there, but that one has lived for a long time and should be dead now. There is no danger, but there is
Low temperature is the scariest thing, so you have to pay attention."
After saying that, Ye Chao never asked about Beiyuan again, but chatted about life with the old man.
…
The wine had not lasted for three rounds, so Yi Xian and Xiao Huan left first on the pretext that they had eaten and drank enough.
Outside Shanhaiyuan, Xiaohuan tilted his head in confusion and asked Zhou Yixian, "Grandpa, don't you always like what's in the cup? Since Brother Ye invited you to drink, why don't you drink before leaving?
?”
Zhou Yixian pinched Xiaohuan's baby-fat cheeks and said angrily: "That person is not simple, and from his conversation I found that he is not as stubborn as most of the righteous disciples. You
I think, grandpa, I just answered his two questions that many people know and got ten taels of silver. If he regrets and takes away the money, how will we live for a few days?"
Xiaohuan shook his head and said, "But I don't think Brother Ye is the kind of person you think, grandpa."
"What about Brother Ye? Just because he gave you a bunch of candied haws and packed you a lot of vegetables, you speak up for him?"
Xiaohuan rolled her eyes at her grandfather and said with a sweet voice: "Grandpa, didn't you say that it's normal to be soft-spoken? Besides, I think Brother Ye is very powerful. After all, he was very cool when he first met me.
You know my name is Xiaohuan."
"Hiss, this is a question. Could it be that he is also a member of our group, but it is impossible for us in the lineage of physiognomy to have the ability to detect people's names?"
On the other hand, Ye Chao did not think about spending the night in Shanhaiyuan. He drank up the remaining wine on the table, filled the two wine bags he had bought while wandering the street with wine, bought enough dry food, and left.
After leaving Heyang City, Yu Jian went to Beiyuan.
…
…
Beiyuan is far away from Heyang City in the Central Plains. In the words of the old man Yiyi Xian, even Daoxuan Zhenren, the top master of the righteous path today, needs to walk with a sword for five days and five nights without interruption.
Putting it on Ye Chao, he flew with his sword for more than half a month before he finally saw the flat ground covered with frost and snow.
At this time, he had already prepared the equipment to enter Beiyuan, such as more than a dozen bags of spirits, fox fur coats used by herdsmen, waterproof and antifreeze sheepskin plus velvet boots, and special small iron pots for boiling water.
Another example is the simple tent you made yourself.
Ye Chao, who was dressed like a herdsman, stepped onto the plain filled with wind and snow.
It seemed to feel pretty good, because he hadn't entered the hinterland of Beiyuan, so the air wasn't too cold. With the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao running inside his body, he didn't even feel how terrifying the temperature was when his breath seemed to freeze into ice.
Snow is falling like crane feathers at this time, so the sky is not blue but dark. Because the terrain is very flat, you can see everything thousands of miles away. Because the temperature is extremely cold and there are no human traces, it is so quiet that you can hear it.
The sound of your own heart beating.
Absolute silence was how Ye Chao felt at this time. He enjoyed this hard-won feeling and walked towards the depths of Beiyuan.
…
People always like new things, but people also like to linger on the familiar life.
Beiyuan is very quiet. It is so quiet that you can only hear the roar of deer and wolves at night. It is so quiet that you can only hear the cold wind howling furiously in the void.
For Ye Chao, living in this kind of environment for the first time would feel novel, but after he walked in Beiyuan for a month, when it was difficult to see animal traces and there was only white snow in his sight, he felt something inexplicable.
of irritability.
The reason for his irritability may be that he has never seen a single sacred stone or sacred tree that can be turned into an artifact.
He took out the wine bag and poured a large mouthful of strong liquor into his mouth, drank it happily, and then shouted: "Is there anyone here? Let's talk about right and wrong!"
A ferret that had just exposed its head was so frightened by his words that it retreated into the snow. A pine cone blown from the northwest, frozen into an ice ball, was about to hit his face.
He drew his sword decisively and then slashed it down. The pine cone was cut in half.
"Pine cone? It means there will be a coniferous forest ahead. In other words, there is enough spiritual energy there, and there may be magical materials for refining weapons."
