........................
Another three days passed.
The hut underground, still, is silent. It seems to be a noisy abandoned corner, but it is faint and the world of two people.
Yue Qiong sat cross-legged on the stone couch. She held a jade slip in her palm, her eyes slightly closed, as if she was in a fixed position. Inside the jade slip, there are rubbings of earth and ghost arts.
Someone warned that the Dharma is so profound that it is difficult to comprehend the subtleties without three or five months of penance. And you don't have to be demanding, you can barely do one or two.
There is no blame, for the sake of Miss Yue's peace of mind to cultivate, she gave up the stone couch and spread the mattress on the ground alone. And he lay down and was not idle, his head resting on his arm, his feet crossed, and he was silently watching with a scroll of animal skins in his hand.
On the mattress beside him, there are also a few jade slips scattered around, all of which are ancient classics, rubbing ancient rumors and anecdotes.
He is now suffering from erysipelas, there is nothing he can do, and he is in a desperate situation, but he does not delay his cranky thoughts. He is very yearning for the world outside the Divine Continent, and he is also a little more curious about the changes in the Divine Continent. And it is not easy to learn something from the classics.
I remember Yue Qiong said that things have their origins and ends, and things have always been there.
The classic book has clouds: non-polar incarnation of all things in heaven and earth. The upper and lower four directions are called the universe, and the ancient and modern times are called the universe. It has no origin, no hole, endless, and mysterious. If you know what to do, you will be short.
And the origin of the vicissitudes of life is not understood, and the so-called Tao is impossible to trace. Who will tell me, the vastness of the universe, the vast geometry, what this underground hut has experienced, and what was the former Shenzhou like......
Blameless looked at the volume in his hand, bored, suddenly startled, and slowly sat up.
The couch is empty, and the people are gone?
And after a while, the light flickered, and a figure of green clothes appeared on the stone couch. I saw a smile on the corner of her lips and bright eyes. It is easy to see that the magical powers she has just used are the ghost walking technique and the earth walking technique, which are not jerky at all, but seem quite free.
"You...... You've mastered the Ghost Movement and the Earth Movement Technique?"
Blameless's eyes widened in disbelief.
When he first cultivated the Escape Method, he put in a lot of hard work. And it only took three days for the woman to be able to perform it easily.
"Although it is not subtle, it is also worthy of it!"
Yue Qiong replied truthfully, her smile revealing inexplicable kindness and pleasure.
Running thousands of miles for someone before, but now that she is reunited in a different place, living in the same room again, and being able to teach the exercises, she only feels that her feelings have been settled. Even if you hide in the dark and cramped underground, it seems to be full of light, and the reverie is infinite.
Wu Blame was quite depressed, and sighed: "Alas, people are more angry than people!"
He always thought that his intelligence was extraordinary, but now that he saw Yue Qiong's cultivation speed, he realized that he was still far from a real cultivator.
"You are one of a kind, so why should you be discouraged! I have to do my best to help you!"
Yue Qiong is no longer the reserved and arrogant young lady, but empathetic, and quite concerned and considerate, and then said: "If you have a faster way to escape, you might as well pass it on to me." You should also rest a lot and take the opportunity to consult the classics......"
Not only is there someone to accompany her, but she can also cultivate rare supernatural powers, she really wants to continue, she has never been so cheerful and fulfilling!
Wu Yi stood up and said solemnly: "I still have the Flash Escape Technique, the Water Walking Technique, the Wind Walking Technique, and the Underworld Technique, are you willing to practice them one by one?"
"Yes, it's hard to imagine that you know so many magical powers......"
Yue Qiong jumped off the stone couch and agreed again and again. Under the pearlescent light, she is very beautiful and charming. You must know that the cultivation of immortals is taught in an orderly manner, and the inheritance of the family is extremely harsh. But now someone is extremely generous, and many rare exercises are given away.
But Wu Yi grinned, shook his head and smiled: "Miss Yue is willing, but now is not appropriate!" He picked up the scroll and jade slip on the ground, and put away the mattress: "Three days have passed, and no one has chased after me." You and I will run away, and maybe we can find the two old men!"
Yue Qiong couldn't help but bow her head, and there seemed to be a faint sense of loss in her face.
There are rules in the fairy road, and the law is not passed on. Blindly asking for it will inevitably leave the suspicion of lack of greed. Being despised by him was definitely not his original intention.
"Miss Yue, I have erysipelas in my body, and the day is not safe, if I delay it any longer, I'm afraid it won't be good!"
Seeing that Yue Qiong was silent, he only patiently reminded the other party when he was resentful, and said: "I have time in the future, and it is not too late to pass on your escape!"
Yue Qiong raised her head and smiled: "Seriously!"
"What is the use of the supernatural exercises?"
Wu Yi was very unimpressed, and said nonchalantly: "One day, I will pass on all the exercises I know to the world!"
"Why?"
"Ten thousand laws come from the way of heaven, and they should be attributed to all things!"
"Teachable!"
"Hehe, it's mysterious, but it's actually simple. My supernatural powers are all snatched. Don't you hear that the ghosts of the fairy gate are worried?"
Wu Blame returned to his old uninhibited nature, stretched out his hand and said, "Miss Yue, please take me for a ride!" Yue Qiong was always unrestrained or shy with him, even if he encountered danger, he was a little less frightened and a little more casual. She agreed, grabbed his wrist, and the light shrouded in light, and they both slid off the ground and across the wall. It's just that at the moment of leaving, she couldn't help but glance back.
The hut was silent and empty. But I don't know if the time of the past can continue to be silent for eternity......
......
As the light flickered, two figures emerged from a narrow cave.
Among them, Yue Qiong staggered two steps, leaning on the stone wall, panting slightly, and said apologetically: "My cultivation is not good, even if I use the escape method, it is difficult to endure, and now it is seven or eight days later, but I don't know where I have been?"
Blameless is safe and sound, reaching out to pick up the weeds at the entrance of the cave and about to go out.
"No brother, don't be careless, let me investigate first, and you wait here for a while!"
Yue Qiong was very cautious, hurriedly made a sound to stop her, and then dropped a solemn look and walked out of the cave.
No one had to stay where he was and look back.
accidentally became a "brotherless". And that girl Yue is not like a sister, but like a sister, she likes to make her own decisions.
And walking underground, there is no ease at all on the ground, not only does it consume cultivation, but it is also dimly difficult to discern the direction. Now it is only two thousand miles to walk and rest for seven or eight consecutive days, and for Yue Qiong's cultivation, it is already difficult. It's just that the cave is too narrow and stuffy, so it's better to find a cool place and wait for her to return!
Blameless lingered in the cave for a moment and quietly walked out of the cave. Looking through the weeds, there is no abnormality in the valley where it is. He climbed down the hillside, and he was very dexterous and light. Suddenly, I reached the top of the mountain. He ducked under a tree and gazed into the distance.
The sun is tilted, and it should be in the afternoon.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, the distant mountains are stacked, the jungle is lush, and there are birds flying. Looking around, the scenery is also pleasant.
Dozens of miles away, there was an empty valley. Among them, the houses are scattered and surrounded by rivers, just like a village and town, but I don't know where it is. On the mountain path, a figure in Tsing Yi walked in a hurry......
Sitting in the shade of the trees on the top of the mountain, blowing the cool breeze, looking at the mountain scenery, it is very pleasant. Although there is not much left of his cultivation now, the muscles and bones that have been tempered for a long time and the strength of his body are still there. In particular, the powerful divine consciousness was not damaged, and it was visible from far and near. He couldn't help but quietly disperse his consciousness and followed the figure in green clothes. After a moment, he frowned slightly......
It is a small town of mountains and rivers, shaded by trees and gurgling water, quiet and beautiful.
On the stele at the entrance of the town, the word "Xiushui" is engraved.
Silk Town.
Yue Qiong stopped in front of the stele and looked at it, and took out another picture to check. After a while, she continued to follow the bluestone street. In order to avoid accidents, she concealed her true cultivation.
As shown in the map, Xiushui Town is located in the southeast of He Fuguo, two or three thousand miles away from Wanling Mountain. With such a distance away and a remote location, it should be difficult for the masters of Wanling Mountain to take care of both. You might as well drop by to find out the rumors so that you can take care of it separately.
A wisp of fragrance wafts in the wind.
Not far from the street, there is a stall selling fruits. There was also a woman, who was drowsy.
Yue Qiong looked at the deserted street, pursed her lips and smiled, raised her feet and walked to the stall, and said loudly: "Shopkeeper, what kind of fruit is this......
The woman stood up in a hurry, looking puzzled, apparently not understanding the guest's question, and smiling and at a loss for what to do.
The fruit is golden, attractive in color, and has a delicate fragrance, and the taste should not be bad. Someone is greedy for delicious food, why not buy it and give him a tooth sacrifice!
Yue Qiong didn't ask any more questions, dropped half a ingot of silver, rolled up his sleeves, turned around and left lightly.
The woman was amazed and raised her hand in thanks.
The streets are sparsely populated, and even the shops on both sides are mostly closed. And deserted towns are commonplace. At least in the Consciousness, nothing abnormal has been found.
Yue Qiong gradually relaxed her guard, found a fat powder shop and walked in. After buying her daughter's favorite gadgets, she took a look around the ready-to-wear store.
Before you know it, you're at the end of the street. Two men were busy in front of the door, which turned out to be a store for marinated duck.
For those who are greedy for delicious food, I am afraid that the fruit is not as good as the sauce duck to satisfy their cravings!
Yue Qiong walked to the door of the shop and stretched out her hand to signal: "Shopkeeper, here are two sauce ducks!"
Two men, shirtless and sweaty, were gathering around a pot to get a few steaming ducks. The older should be the shopkeeper, grabbed a cloth towel and wiped his sweat, followed the voice and his eyes lit up: "This girl, what do you command?"
It was rare to see a beautiful woman in the town, and he and his buddies stopped. It's just that the accent is obscure, and I can't understand what the other party is going to do.
Yue Qiong pondered for a while, learned the local accent and said, "Two ducks!"
The shopkeeper understood this time, and said with a smile: "Today's few sauce ducks have been ordered, and the girl will come back tomorrow......!
It's just to buy a sauce duck, and you have to hurry up early tomorrow. It seems that the shop is rarely opened, and the few ducks that have become owners have become owners.
Yue Qiong didn't want to return empty-handed, so he took out a piece of silver and pleaded: "I'm a foreigner, just passing through here." Sell me a sauce duck, double the price!"
The shopkeeper shook his head, but his eyes were looking at Yue Qiong's body wantonly. The guy next to him was understanding, and grinned: "If the girl is willing to stay with my eldest brother for a night, it doesn't hurt to give you a few ducks......
Yue Qiong's face sank, and her long sleeves were lightly brushed.
"Smack-"
Before she could make a move, the guy had already covered his cheeks and flew out, and he was stuck in the shop without a figure, only two teeth rolling on the ground, and screams rang out. She ignored it, dropped the silver and turned away.
The shopkeeper was caught off guard, stunned on the spot, bowed his head and disappeared from the clay pot full of ducks, he shouted loudly: "Someone robs the duck, catch the thief quickly-"
