Volume 1: The Peace Bureau (Part I) Chapter 26, The Barefoot Immortal

In the few days of waiting for the news of the Tibetan Golden Crow, there was nothing to do at night, Feng Tielu and Zhao Jia had work to do, and it was inconvenient for him to get old and bother, except for going to Jishe every day to go around, the young man spent most of his time in Kushui Temple and other news, practicing during the day and meditating at night, and Zhao Xixi, who was under the same roof, became more and more familiar, and also learned about some of her family affairs and the history of several major families in the ancient city.

According to the little girl, the Zhao family is a remnant of the former Qin, and was once a famous family, during the period of Chenxu hegemony, the old country was destroyed, and they moved here from Yanzhou to avoid the war, and now it has a history of more than 100 years. In addition, the Yan family of Fulu Lane is mainly engaged in calligraphy and painting, and its strength can rank second, and the third is the Liu family of Xinglongfang, who does grain and oil business, and persuades the Li family to learn from the lane.

In order to avoid Zhao Xixi's cranky thoughts, Ye Yu didn't ask about the festival, and what he couldn't put in his arms right now was the whereabouts of the little girl.

He helped Zhao Xixi out of pity, but the little girl is a girl after all, and there are always many inconveniences in living together, and she is still a floating soul, and if she wants to preserve her nature, she has to practice, and he asked Lao Zhou, in Taiping City, among the nine elements and eighteen, except for Juyizhuang, only the Huayue Building in Lion Lane is willing to accept girls, but it is a place to hook the fence, and it is definitely not a good place to go.

In the evening of that day, the two of them were munching on the baked cakes, sitting by the bitter water well and chatting, and Yelu told the little girl about his plans for the future.

In fact, he was knocking on the side to remind him that it might not be long before he left this place.

The little girl wept secretly after hearing this, and her mood fell to the bottom.

When the lamp was in hand, the two went back to the room to meditate, and Zhao Xixi couldn't calm down no matter what, and sat aside in a daze.

Ye Yu thought about a way to let her have something in her heart first, so that she could really solve the problem after that.

Thinking of this, he told the little girl an idea, wanting to use the dream grass to help her dream occupy it and see if her brother was alive.

In fact, this was not a temporary idea, but an idea that had been thought of as early as when the little girl couldn't sleep at night, but at that time he was not sure whether this method was feasible or not, but it was dangerous.

In addition, I am also worried that the little girl is trapped in a cycle of dreams, if it is a good omen, if it is a bad omen, it will damage her soul.

However, after consulting Lao Zhou, he learned that the dream grass can peek into the auspicious matter, not limited to himself, as long as the person who wants to dream is alive and in this fog screen state, on the contrary, if the person is dead, he will only see the fog and dare to say this idea.

When Zhao Xixi heard that Ye Yu had a way to let her meet her brother in her dream, she was suddenly shocked and couldn't wait.

Ye Yu taught her the spiritual talisman that Lao Zhou received, and told her the key to it, and repeatedly told her that no matter what she dreamed of, she should not be attached to it, and she needed to dream in time.

The little girl nodded again and again, held a dream grass in her hand, and fell asleep full of hope.

Ye Yu was not very relieved, and stayed by her side until the light of day, and she did not wake up until she saw a dream grass wither.

Zhao Xixi opened his eyes, was ignorant for a while, and looked excited.

Just looking at her excited expression, Ye Yu knew that it was done.

Sure enough, when she calmed down and asked, he learned that her brother "Zhao Chengfang" was still alive and on his way back to the ancient city, and he was also very happy for the little girl.

When there is hope in life, there is the motivation to live.

In the next few days, Zhao Xixi's spirit improved significantly, and he could even occasionally show some smiles, and he became diligent and quick in his work, rushing to help wash and dry the quilt at night, sweeping the sky and the ground.

Although he didn't say any words of gratitude, he really wanted to do more for the boy.

......

A few days later, there was finally news from the Tibetan Jinwu side, Feng Tielu came to the temple to find Ye Yu, and did not elaborate on the details, only informed him to leave tomorrow morning, and said that he had to rush to Xishan today to find his master to ask for a calligraphy, so he hurriedly left.

Ye Yu ran to the Ji Society, but unfortunately the return to the Taoist Hall did not release a new post, he could only hit the horse back to the mountain, although the matter of picking ghost face flowers has nothing to do with finding shadows, but to make a living in Taiping City, everything has to be opened with money, and if he wants to make a living, he has to follow the rules here.

In the afternoon, the young man returned to the ancient temple, bought some dry food, and left one for Zhao Xixi, enough for her to eat for ten days.

The little girl prepared a set of clothes for him, and gave him a peace knot made of blades of grass to wish him all the best.

In the evening, she begged for a dream grass from the night with some shame.

Ye Yu was very generous, and did not take it seriously, but only told her not to indulge in dreams, lest the ghost be consumed in vain, so he ignored her and slept alone.

But he didn't know that at midnight, Zhao Xixi woke up suddenly, trembling all over, and stared at him in a daze for a while.

The next morning, when the boy woke up, he saw that the little girl's face was strangely bad, and that she was no longer in the past, so he asked her what she had dreamed of yesterday.

Zhao Xixi suddenly hid her face and cried, saying that she dreamed that his brother was chased and killed by Zhao Chengqian, and she couldn't stop it, and cried and begged Yeyu if she could see her brother, she must try to save him, and she was willing to repay his great kindness as a cow and a horse for the rest of her life.

Ye Yu heard it in the clouds, and when she asked carefully, she learned that the little girl actually saw him and Zhao Chengfang meet in a certain place in a dream, and they had camped together for the night.

Although this thing sounded a little bizarre, the young man still agreed, if he could really meet his brother on this trip, he would remind him to take precautions as soon as possible and help him get out of danger.

......

Two days later, Ye Yu followed Feng Tielu and Zhao Jia to the Tiger Leaping Cliff again.

This time, Feng Monkey was in charge, not only did his homework in advance, but also formulated a set of serial plans for the "barefoot fairy".

He later heard from the Tibetan gold crow that this kind of wild ape lives with both males and females, every time he goes out to hunt, he will always leave a caretaker, if he wants to explore the hole to take flowers, he must lead both of them out, so he wants to set a trap, first lead the snake out of the hole, attract one to come, trap it, and then strike the west, lead the other to rescue, then take the opportunity to go into the hole to take flowers, and then immediately escape, and then there is the barefoot fairy is most afraid of thunder, in case of the outer one, but also from his master to ask for a "green thunder charm", in case of emergency.

And the night before, they also used the dream grass dream to occupy it, and found and filled in the gaps in the dream, and rehearsed this plan.

It's just that after waking up the next day, the three of them turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat.

Unexpectedly, the barefoot fairy was extremely smart, and he could easily see through the trap, and he would also calculate, if it weren't for the moment of crisis, Feng Tielu sacrificed a plan of green thunder to scare off the female ape who didn't use their voice at all, and quietly followed, the three of them were afraid that they would have to become a meal for the two monsters, and where would they have the life to pick the ghost face flower.

After some review, the three of them all felt that the trap needed to be set up more hidden, and another person was assigned to ambush near the entrance of the cave in advance, as long as the female ape left the nest, no matter what the situation on the other side, she would immediately go in and steal the flowers, so that there was a possibility of success.

But in the armor removal technique that Zhao Jia practiced, this "Trapped Immortal Array" was already the most powerful one among them, and he couldn't think of any other good way.

Thinking about it, Ye Yu thought about it, and felt that since this was the case, it was better to make a mistake and set up a pocket in the original trap, one yin and one yang, and it was expected that the male ape might not be able to see through it.

After that, the three of them used the dream grass again, and they saw miraculous results, but they still couldn't avoid being chased and killed by two strong wild apes.

However, there is no perfect solution in this world, and you can only take a risk.

On the day of the move, the teenagers were familiar with the road and fully prepared, buried a chain in the forest above the cliff, and lured the male ape out of the hole with the aroma of barbecue.

But this time, none of the three stayed around the trap, and they all hid near the cave, anyway, their purpose was to steal flowers, not to catch the barefoot fairy.

After a short time, the white-haired male ape, who only looked at the human-like face from a distance, smelled the hole and came out, and the slightly thin female ape also followed.

Feng Tielu saw that he couldn't miss the opportunity, and jumped into the cave like a spirit monkey.

Ye Mo and Zhao Jia each held a sword and followed closely behind.

After just a few breaths, Feng Monkey turned back safely with a large bag of black cloth.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a terrible howl from the forest in the distance, obviously the male ape was negligent and fell into the trap.

As soon as the three of them loaded their things into the basket, they ran down the hill with their legs, because they had attached light talismans in advance, and knew that the two wild apes might chase after them, so they all used all their strength.

The night man rushed to the front with a knife, Zhao Jia raised his sword to guard against the left and right, and Feng Tielu pinched the back of the palace.

After running for more than ten miles in one go, they saw a stream appear in front of them, far beyond what they had seen in their dreams, and the three of them dared to slow down and stop to rest.
