Chapter Seventy-Four: Return to Tushan
They all tried to make Su Ning change her mind, although Su Ning was moved by this, she insisted on her original intention unwaveringly, her purpose of going up the mountain was to practice martial arts and repay Bai Ying for saving her life.
Su Ning insisted on leaving, as the master, Qian Yi didn't say a word to keep it, as if he didn't care, no one knew, he was also reluctant to Su Ning in his heart, but with his temperament, it was impossible to show it.
Qian Fan was much more frank, he softened Su Ning and asked her to promise that she would come back after finishing the work. Only the element condensation retains the Dao hairpin of the Chase Mountain School, and she can go up the mountain again at any time.
On the 150th year since Su Ning entered the gate of Datong Mountain, she packed her bags, put on the clothes she had when she went up the mountain, and after saying goodbye to everyone, she walked out of the door of Qiongke Cave.
Su Ning followed the instructions of the Taoist boy who guarded the door of the cave and descended the mountain from a path around the verdant moss. It was early winter when Su Ning went up the mountain, and now it is the spring season when he goes down the mountain.
The landscape under the mountain has been very different, it is the bright sky and the light is warm, all things are bright and new, the ice is melted and the spring water is gushing, and the snow is still in the plum. Su Ning walked out of Datong Mountain and found that the clothes on his body had become narrower, and it was estimated that he had recovered his growth in the past six months. In order to hurry, she didn't have time to buy new clothes, shoes and socks, so she would wear them first.
Su Ning walked in the direction of returning to Tushan, and finally returned to Tushan after half a month.
The scenery of Tushan is no different from when Su Ning left half a year ago, it is still the ancient pines, the bamboo is repaired, the grass is in the sky, and the mountains are full of flowers. It seems that the wolf clan has not yet attacked, and Su Ning's heart is a little more stable.
She counted the days, and there were still more than ten days before the eighth day of the second month, so she didn't know if the wolf clan would attack in advance...... Su Ning was thinking about it, and suddenly felt that there was a demonic aura in front of her, so she immediately kept an eye on it, and used the iron hairpin on her head to hide her aura.
Su Ning cautiously used the cover of weeds and vines to walk towards the place where the demonic aura emanated. After walking forward for dozens of feet, she suddenly froze.
In a clearing in front of her, a steel-bearded man was fighting two fox people, the big man with a broad waist and a rough face, dressed in a short gray robe, and holding a heavy black iron mace.
The mace was half as tall as a big man, and he swung the stick and smashed it down on the head of the two fox fairies, who only had long swords for self-defense in their hands, and they were really difficult to match, so they could only be beaten by him.
The big man laughed arrogantly, and picked up his mace to chase after them, and he was not in a hurry to kill them, but like a cat playing tricks on mice, whenever they were knocked to the ground by him, he stretched out his booted foot and kicked them up, and split their heads with a stick.
Behind the big man stood a companion, who was also hideous and burly.
He also laughed and said to his accomplices: "Play slowly with them! Let them think that they have made a great achievement! I found that Uncle Ben did not escape with his tail between his legs, and dared to go up without his life!"
The two demon wolves were enjoying the pleasure of torturing their prey, when they suddenly smelled a faint fragrance around them. The demon wolf who was watching shrank his nose and sniffed, and said:
"What does this smell like......
The man with the mace also stopped, and at this time, flowers suddenly floated in front of them, and countless white mandala flowers grew under their feet.
The two of them were stunned by the aroma and the rain of flowers, their eyes were empty, and the demon wolf with a mace discarded his weapon, and the corners of his mouth even dripped liquid.
And the two fox fairies, but they couldn't see the flying flowers or smell the fragrance of the flowers, they looked at the two still demon wolves in confusion.
What surprised them even more was that the two vicious wolf clansmen fell to the ground with a thud, and then snored loudly and fell asleep on the spot.
The second fox was at a loss, and there was a rustling sound in the grass. Under their guarded and blank gaze, Su Ning, who was wearing a thick cloak, walked out.
Su Ning waved at them and said, "In Xia Yu Su Ning, I have seen the two. ”
One of the fox fairies looked at her, thought for a moment, and finally suddenly recognized her: "Ah...... Are you the friend that Mr. Bai brought back?"
Half a year ago, Su Ning had lived in Tushan for more than ten days, because she was brought back by Baiying, and she was a human being, many Tushan people were deeply impressed by her.
The other party recognized him, and Su Ning said that he was very pleased, so that he didn't have to spend his lips explaining his identity. Su Ning used the "Returning Yuan Mantra" and the herbs she carried with her to heal the two of them, and the two of them only realized at this time that the two wolf clans were stunned by Su Ning.
Su Ning's "Flower Rain Spring Sleep" has now been practiced, not only the attack range has been expanded, but also the target can be selected, and it will not "mistakenly hurt" his own people.
Su Ning learned from the fox fairy that these two demon wolves were spies sent by the wolf clan, and there were demon wolf clan people in Tushan from time to time recently, and it was estimated that they came to spy for the war.
When the second princess Bai Guanhui learned of the situation, she sent her clansmen to go out to patrol the mountains regularly. They met the demon wolf on patrol today. These demon wolves were arrogant, and when they were discovered, not only did they not dodge or hide, but they also openly fought with the fox fairy. Just because they are strong in martial arts, most of the fox immortals are mild-tempered, so they are naturally not their opponents.
Since these two demon wolves are spies, they should be able to get some information about the enemy from their mouths, so Su Ning and the fox fairies tied up the demon wolf Wuhuanda with the "bundle demon rope" and escorted them up the mountain together.
Su Ning followed them into the palace, and soon, Bai Ying heard the news. When he saw Su Ning, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Su Ning, are you really back?"
Bai Ying didn't expect Su Ning to really stick to them, she knew that Tu Shan was about to break out into war, she returned from her studies, she could have gone away, but she still resolutely came to help.
Su Ning couldn't help but burst into tears when she faced Engong, who she hadn't seen for a long time, she held back her tears and bowed to Bai Ying.
"Yes, Mr. Bai......"
Bai Ying looked at her aura, and was even more overjoyed: "Su Ning, you have actually cultivated to the middle level and the second rank, you are really a cultivable material with deep spiritual roots!"
Su Ning replied shyly: "Mr. Bai, you have won the prize......"
The two exchanged a few more words and asked each other about their current situation, and Bai Ying asked Su Ning, who was in the dust, to bathe and change clothes first, and then take her to meet the second princess.
Su Ning returned to the Chufang Pavilion where she lived in the past, and Bai Ying still sent Man Qing to take care of her. Su Ning faced the familiar room and the familiar maid, and immediately felt more cordial. Man Qing had a close relationship with Su Ning in the past, and she was overjoyed with her return.
Su Ning saw Man Qing, and immediately gave her a pair of amethyst earrings designed and made by herself, which made Man Qing very happy.
Su Ning washed off the dust in the room, she put on a field gauze embroidered white magnolia Luo skirt, combed her double flat bun, and prepared to visit Bai Guanxi.
Before leaving the room, Su Ning stood in front of the huge bronze mirror and took a photo. She was so busy traveling during this time that she didn't have a chance to look in the mirror to see her appearance, and only then could she take a good look at the changes she had made in the past six months.
After 150 years of practice in Odori Mountain, half a year has passed in the world, and after Su Ning descended the mountain, his body resumed growth.
She was now twelve and a half years old, and because it was the time of her body, she was more than two inches taller than when she had ascended the Odori Mountain, and her face and facial features were more distinct.
Su Ning looked at herself in the mirror with a smile - red lips and white teeth, smooth snow skin, faint eyebrows and willow leaves, and fragrant cheeks lined with peach blossoms, which was a little more beautiful than before.
Su Ning felt that she was too narcissistic, and she secretly warned herself that her appearance was just a skin, and she still had to learn from her true talents.
She came out of the room, accompanied by Man Qing, and walked towards the Huayang Palace. The two of them were coming out of the Pavilion, and a young man in Chinese costume came to meet them.
Su Ning saw that it was the third prince Bai Xian, so he respectfully said a thousand blessings.
"I've seen the Third Highness. ”
That Bai Xian walked in a hurry, and it seemed that he was rushing to Su Ning, but when he saw Su Ning, his face was cloudy, and he stopped talking.
His gaze lingered on Su Ning's face for a long time, revealing more and more admiration and obsession. In the end, he seemed to remember something, but he raised his eyebrows, snorted softly, and threw his sleeves away.
Su Ning didn't know why he was doing, but she wasn't in the mood to explore. Man Qing covered her mouth behind her and laughed coquettishly.
"Miss Yu, Your Royal Highness is angry with you. ”
Su Ning, who was walking in front, looked back at her in confusion: "Angry?"
Man Qing said the reason: "No, when you went down the mountain before, you all said goodbye to us, but the third highness was left behind." You walked for several days before His Royal Highness learned about the situation, and he was so angry at that time...... Ha ha...... Now that he heard that you were back, he was obviously so happy that his heart was about to bloom, but he was still angry that you didn't say goodbye and didn't take him to heart, so he deliberately gave you a look and made trouble with you. ”
Su Ning's face was embarrassed, how could she listen to Manqing's meaning, as if the Third Highness had special affection for her. However, Bai Xian did say a lot of ambiguous things to Su Ning in the past, what did she ask him to be his pet, and what would not disappoint her......
Su Ning shook her head, now was not the time to think about this, she no longer continued the topic with Man Qing, and continued to rush to Huayang Palace.
The second princess of Tushan, Bai Guanxi, met Su Ning in a conference hall in Huayang Palace. The war between the demon wolf and Tu Shan was imminent, and Bai Guanhui almost forgot to sleep and eat to discuss with the ministers.
Su Ning saw Bai Xuan, and first paid her a tribute to a "fire crystal".
This is what Su Ning gave her when she left Qiongke City, and Qian Fan gave her the five types of spars of "gold, wood, water, fire, and earth". When Su Ning lived in Tushan for a short time half a year ago, she got a lot of care from Bai Guan, she came to know the grace of the picture, and the grace of other people's dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring, so Su Ning borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and transferred the fire crystal to Bai Guanhui of the fire aura.
