54. Emergencies
It's coming, it's coming!
- Huang Chang's heart is full of warnings, he has long expected that this test will not be passed so easily. The contrast between Ji Ruo's previous anger and impatience and the later light wind is too strong, and there is really a test waiting for him!
Of course, as the last pass to send the proposition, Huang Chang has already thought about how to deal with it. At this time, facing Ji Ruo's seemingly indifferent eyes, he refused without the slightest hesitation:
"Of course not, our Kunlun disciples do not lack a channel for upward promotion, and the later level is not a natural barrier for us, so why bother to be contaminated with this kind of cause and effect. β
"Besides, the foundation of the realm that has been raised in this way is always not very stable, and there are quite a lot of troubles. In the past, I used the wisdom fruit left by Master Zhiguang to rush from the fifth layer to the sixth layer, and the master said that my mana was not pure enough, and it took a long time to retreat before it could be completely integrated. If you use Qi Hongyu's way, I am afraid that the road to Fa Yuan will be cut off in the future. Not to mention ......"
Huang Chang glanced at Ji Ruo when he said this, and said with a smile:
"Supplementation and feedback, not just the peerless learning of the Huajian faction, including our "Concentric Formula", which also has similar methods, but it belongs to the side door of the technique, and is not in the main book of exercises, if you read that exercise thoroughly, including miscellaneous articles, you should be able to know this. β
Ji Ruo snorted, and gently smacked him with a slightly red face:
"Who's going to look at those things...... If you don't want to, then forget it. I turned around and sent the woman away, leaving her to fend for herself. β
Huang Chang smiled, the little girl was still playing psychological tactics with him, he wouldn't be fooled at this time, so he simply made a look of indifference, nodded and said:
"You are the mistress of the Water Spirit Palace, you can arrange it, I have no opinion. β
After saying this, Huang Chang turned around and left, leaving Ji Ruo standing in place, looking at his back thoughtfully.
............
Huang Chang did what he said, and then he no longer paid attention to Qi Hongyu's affairs, but Ji Ruo didn't drive her away after all, but left her in the Water Spirit Palace. Since she put on a posture of meddling in protection, it was naturally difficult for Jingyang Palace to come to the door to force her, and the matter was delayed like this.
So Qi Hongyu is safeβfor the time being, it is estimated that as long as she leaves the Water Spirit Palace, she will still encounter trouble from Jingyang Palace. But at least it's safe for now. Moreover, it is more convenient for her to cultivate in the Water Spirit Palace than outside, and this woman can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
As for the "price" that Qi Hongyu planned to pay, of course Ji Ruo didn't ask her to ask for it, the words of "rewarding others" that she said earlier were just angry words, and the little girl couldn't do this kind of thing after all.
And in order to avoid Ji Ruo's guilt, Huang Chang has not lived in the Water Spirit Palace much recently, most of the time he goes to the villa outside the city to discuss foreign exchanges and expansion with Li Zhai, Qiu Yong and others, or goes to Shengyang Jun's mansion to deal with Chen Yan, Xue Yong and other relatives who stay here, and by the way, he also points out Luo Chun, Yuan Zhen and others martial arts, and their lives are also very fulfilling.
However, this free life did not last long. On this day, Huang Chang finished handling a batch of chores in the Shengyang Villa, and when he was about to take a break, he suddenly felt something in his heart. When he looked up, he saw a rune bird flapping its wings and flying towards him. He reached out and took it, and muttered casually:
"Do you have any instructions from the sect?"
ββLook at the shape of this talisman bird, it should be from the Dragon Head Original Taoist Temple. Longshouyuan Taoist Temple is regarded as the "sending and receiving center" of West Kunlun in the area of the pickaxe capital, and any news is transmitted through there. Huang Chang had also passed messages through there a few times before.
It's just that after opening the talisman bird, Huang Chang's brows were furrowed - the paper of the folding talisman bird was from the Dragon Head Original Taoist Temple, but it also had a communication talisman attached to it, but it was not the Kunlun system, but another style that Huang Chang was not familiar with.
Although the style of the talisman is unfamiliar, the Taoist aura contained in it Huang Chang is very familiar, and it belongs to one of his old friends, Murong Ying.
"Murong's message?"
Huang Chang immediately activated the talisman, and the talisman paper burst into flames, releasing just a few words in mid-air:
"The family is in distress, come to the rescue!"
Huang Chang stood up suddenly, Murong Ying's talisman for help was in secrecy mode, which meant that as long as it was not opened by the designated person, the talisman would burn by itself, and the message would disappear automatically. Therefore, the West Kunlun Mountain side could only send the teleportation charm as it was, instead of sending the message directly.
But Huang Chang could recognize that it must be Murong Ying's own handwriting - he grew up with Murong Ying, and knew that this partner had treated learning calligraphy as if he were practicing swords since he was a child, and there was a faint sword intent in his calligraphy style, which others could not imitate. And with his arrogant character, since he has sent a message to himself asking for help, he must have encountered very big difficulties, and he can't solve them anyway, so he will ask others for help.
But even so, he still chose to use the secrecy mode and only asked for help from his closest friends, rather than the entire sect, this guy's personality is really ...... Stubborn.
Of course, no matter what, since it was a message from Murong Ying, Huang Chang definitely couldn't ignore it. He sat in his position and thought for a moment, quickly summarized the current affairs, and went to Li Zhai and Qiu Yong to hand over the two. Tell them that they are going to be away for a while.
The two of them were quite surprised that he was suddenly leaving, but they could also accept it - they had started this stall independently when Huang Chang was away, and now they just continue to do it as they are.
It's just that later, when Huang Chang returned to the Water Spirit Palace and explained the matter to Ji Ruo, the latter was in trouble:
"I'm going too! Murong is also my friend, he is in trouble, how can I stand by and watch!"
And Huang Chang had already considered the gains and losses here, and immediately responded:
"Ruoruo, Murong's matter, of course neither of us can stand idly by. However, there are different ways to intervene. I can both fight and run, and it will be helpful for Murong to rush over in person. And if you stay here, it doesn't mean that you will have nothing to do - if we need to use the power of the Great Zhou court, with you, the daughter of the prince, and the intervention of the Great Zhou princess in the center of the pickaxe capital, it will be much more effective than my strength under the border county. β
Speaking of this, Huang Chang held Ji Ruo's hand again and said softly:
"If so, since you and I are married, we will be one flesh from now on. I'm fighting outside, and the rest of the business will be left to you. Now my younger siblings and families are here, and I need your sister-in-law to take care of them. There's a lot of stuff you need to do, but you can't just sit idly by. β
When Huang Chang said this, Ji Ruofang calmed down and promised to stay in the capital obediently and help him take care of the future. Including the mischievous little parrot Bobo, who will also help him take care of it.
But before Huang Changlin left, the little girl muttered behind his back:
"There are two people who can squeeze on the shuttle, don't you bring that Qi Hongyu with you?"
Huang Chang couldn't help laughing, turned around and scratched Ji Ruoxiao's nose, turned around directly, and didn't respond to this topic - just kidding, how can you respond, don't you die fast enough. It's so easy to get out of the proposition, and he won't fall into it again.
............
After leaving the Water Spirit Palace, there was no longer any delay - the immortal cultivators acted freely, and there were not so many trivial matters of mothers-in-law and mothers. Huang Chang went straight out of the pickaxe capital, and when he reached the outskirts where flying was allowed, he sacrificed the shuttle, took off into the air, and flew in the direction of Yanshan County.
It is not the first time that Huang Chang has piloted a shuttle to fly in the sky, but every time he flies this long distance, he can feel a sense of "heaven and earth let me go". That is, at this time, it is the most enjoyable way for people to experience the joy of cultivating immortals.
During the journey, Huang Chang had also seen a fellow immortal cultivator flying in the sky several times, but after discovering the blue light of his flying clouds from a distance, he immediately pressed the cloud head and hid to the side.
In one or two of them, when the shuttle swept by, the aura he sensed in his divine sense was even quite strong, and it was estimated that he was a master of the late stage of qi cultivation or even the Fa Yuan level. But he still adopted a strategy of retreating against him, and he didn't even fight at all.
Huang Chang knew that this was due to the prestige of Kunlun Mountain--In the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a single person who could use the special products of West Kunlun to fly the clouds and fly to the wind, what did such a person represent? It must be a descendant of Kunlun! The more powerful the masters, the more profound the background, the more they dare not provoke them Kunlun Mountain, so that as long as these people see the appearance of the Kunlun Shuttle, they will take the initiative to retreat, and if they do not have contact, they will naturally not have grievances.
Of course, I also met someone with other ideas - Huang Chang met a flying monk halfway through, and after discovering his shuttle light, not only did not hide, but shouted "Fellow Daoists, please stay" from a distance, and took the initiative to greet him.
Not to mention that Huang Chang had other important things to do at the moment and had no time to delay, but there was nothing to do, and he didn't dare to stay when he heard this, so he immediately turned in one direction, accelerated his speed and swept past another position, turning a deaf ear to the person's distant shouts.
Huang Chang had never been to the north, but at the beginning he had carefully seen all the mountains and rivers of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Zixiao Hall of West Kunlun, even if it was impossible to remember all the detailed landforms, at least the general situation of the mountains was always known. And now he is looking down on the earth from a high altitude, and the scene he sees is also in line with the three-dimensional map on Kunlun Mountain.
In this way, day and night, the mountains and rivers of the counties of the Great Zhou Dynasty swept under his feet. In a few days, after flying over a huge and towering mountain range, the ground below gradually flattened out, and large grasslands began to appear.
So Huang Chang knew that this was the arrival of Yanshan County.
