Chapter 3: The Swallow Does Not Return

The woman smiled slightly and said, "It's your luck to meet me, otherwise I'm afraid that if you walk for a few months, you may not be able to find the mountain gate." ”

Shen Lian saw the jaw-dropping scene, only to see that from the top of the high cliff, the girl in purple Luo Yi actually walked down step by step, as if an invisible ladder was born in the void.

In front is the void, behind is also the void, and farther away, the walls stand thousands of miles.

There is no sadness or joy on the girl's face, let the clothes flutter, the green silk fluttering, not an immortal, better than an immortal.

But for a moment, Shen Lian was stunned, and he smelled a crisp aroma, clear and pure, which reminded him of the cloudless starry sky.

The girl had already reached the sky in front of her, and outside of her, her white fingers were slightly towards him, and Shen Lian suddenly had a strange feeling under his feet, but it was a cloud of smoke, carrying him rising.

It wasn't until later that he learned about the Taoist technique used by the girl, called the 'Little Heavenly Cloud Forbidden Method'.

Suddenly, he was high in the sky, and the ethereal Qingxuan Mountain in front of him became more and more real.

The clouds and smoke are ethereal, and the twilight is heavy, so that you can see the sky high and the sea wide.

Flying in the clouds is a fairy method of myths and legends, Shen Lian felt it for the first time, and became more and more fascinated by the immortal means.

Before he had time to think about anything, Shen Lian fell, the clouds dissipated, and he was down-to-earth.

In the distance is a bustling town with people coming and going.

Shen Lian looked back to look for the girl, but there was no trace of her, and it was difficult to see a trace.

He knew that the girl must be an immortal figure in Qingxuan, so he had such a means. At the same time, he was envious of his magical powers that came and went freely, which was the beauty of Changsheng's question.

When I arrived at the entrance of the town, the three big characters of 'Nanke Town' were engraved on the boundary monument, which was eye-catching.

With every stroke, you can see the length of time.

It is said that it is a town, but there are not as many people in it as there is a village.

As far as the eye can see, there is only one street in the town.

It stands to reason that there should have been no living people here for a long time, but the people in the town were not particularly excited to see a stranger like Shen Lian.

Shen Lian was slightly vigilant in his heart, because this world, similar to the ancient times of the earth, many people were born, grew up, and died in Si, and they had never been anywhere else in their lives.

The so-called homeland is inseparable, and that's probably it.

Therefore, when you meet strangers, you should be very curious.

Curiosity is human nature, he doesn't believe in the people here, everyone is pure-hearted.

There weren't many people on the street, about thirty or forty, and half of them were children aged a few years or teens.

Whether it was an adult or a child, looking at Shen Lian's gaze was like looking at a person who was about to die, no one took the initiative to talk to him, and Shen Lian did not take the initiative to talk.

One day he could see that all the people here had some martial arts foundation, and even one or two, and he could see that he had practiced the Divine Foot Sutra.

The Divine Foot Sutra is a kind of martial art that combines movement and static, and Shen Lian uses this technique to practice qi, which is easier to see.

The mysterious girl in purple said which child he was, maybe that's why.

It's just that Shen Lian's Divine Foot Sutra has been practiced to penetrate the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, which can be described as successful, and under the deliberate convergence, ordinary people can't see it.

In fact, although everyone here has martial arts, it can really be said that they can penetrate the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and none of the people on the street have reached such a level.

In fact, it runs through the two veins of Rendu, which is recorded in the Taoist scriptures, and is also called building a foundation.

It means that after this, there is a foundation for spiritual practice.

Even if there is a supreme mental method, it is not easy to get to this step, and before middle age, if you fail to penetrate the second vein of Ren Du, it will only become more difficult in the future.

In addition to the sparse houses, there is only one restaurant in the town, and it is the only place where people can live.

This was observed by Shen Lian after a period of time.

The restaurant is called 'Yan does not return', but there is no couplet by the door.

Shen Lian entered the restaurant, and a bartender came up to greet him.

The bartender was very enthusiastic and said, "What does the guest want to eat?"

"What are you using to settle the bill, is this okay?" Shen Lian took out a gold leaf, and everywhere he went, gold was a rare thing.

"Because during this time, guests from outside do not need money to eat and stay in the hotel. The bartender smiled, he was already thirty years old, with a towel on his shoulder, and a thick cocoon on his shoulder, and he would definitely be able to break out of the world in the rivers and lakes of the outside world, but he was just a little bartender here.

"Why is that?" asked Shen Lian unhurriedly.

The bartender laughed and said, "I'm afraid to say it, you don't have the appetite to eat." ”

"I've always had a good appetite, but you don't hurt to say it. ”

"Then I'll say it, because the boss said that you are all people who want to die, and if you don't let you eat enough, I'm afraid it will be too wronged. The bartender chuckled.

"I see, since I'm going to die, if you have any good wine and food, please bring it up. Shen Lian smiled.

The bartender didn't answer immediately, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pat Shen Lian on the shoulder, his five fingers were slightly bent, this is an extremely powerful grappling technique, and it is an old way of using strength, unless it is a year or two of fire, it can't be like this.

But Shen Lian took a staggered step lightly, allowing the bartender to catch a blank shot.

The bartender was slightly startled, and said with a haha: "I see that your shoulders are a little gray, and I want to pat you on the back, there is no malice." ”

Shen Lian gently wiped the dust off his shoulders, and said with an indifferent smile: "But I don't bother you, please want to bring me some wine and food." ”

The bartender spread his hands and asked him to find a table before he went to get a drink.

The hall of this restaurant is not small, and there are many people sitting in the sparse place.

Most of the clothes are made of good material, and their looks are different from ordinary people.

These people were divided into several groups and each formed a table.

Among them, Shen Lian is alone at a table, and he is obviously a lonely person.

And most of the people who were gathered around looked at Shen Lian with blank eyes.

Shen Lian silently counted, those who were as lonely as him, plus him, there were four in total, and those who gathered together had a total of five tables.

They are all about the same age, and then mixed with about three middle-aged people, if it is not for the temples high ~ bulging, or the eyes are clear, obviously these three middle-aged people are the top masters of the rivers and lakes.

According to Ye Liuyun's statement, under the age of twenty, there is no chance of Qingxuan, unless there are rare special circumstances.

These people who are similar to him are probably the children of the Jianghu family who know that Qingxuan opened the door to accept disciples, or the children of hidden sects such as Feixian Island.

The person who is alone is about the same situation as him, or he came here by chance, or he got the news by chance.

There is still more than a month before Qingxuan opens the mountain gate, and there must be competition between them.
