Volume 1 The Rain of Jianyi Chapter 76 Preparation Before Departure
"Oh, I look at this little girl, she looks so beautiful, I can't help but admire, what is valuable is that she is heroic, with a heroic spirit between her eyebrows and eyes, this trip to Geshan may not be as good as her little guys." Mr. Li looked at somewhere in the hall and exclaimed.
Ah Xiao was thinking about something in his mind at this time, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was a little wrong, Su Jie couldn't help laughing, Ah Xiao raised his head, and found that the eyes of the people next to him were a little strange, and they all looked at themselves with a smile, and he looked at the lobby in confusion: "What's wrong? Why don't you speak?"
"Hahahaha......" Xiong Yi couldn't help laughing, and explained again and again: "Mr. Li, you misunderstood, this little guy is called Xiao, you can just call him Ah Xiao, and besides, although this little guy is beautiful, he is a unicorn of my Jianyi City, not a girl." ”
"Uh......" Mr. Li squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, got up and hurriedly apologized to Ah Xiao.
This operation has captured the support of all students. The students' inner thoughts now are: Look at you, a big figure like Mr. Li can apologize to our students, there is no arrogance at all, what a good gentleman, a model for my generation.
Ah Xiao also looked embarrassed, got up and politely returned the salute, he was more dissatisfied, in fact, he couldn't blame this Mr. Li, the reason should be to blame Fanyan.
There is a girl in the school Yan, but today she is still dressed as a man, this Mr. Li saw Fanyan, and then saw A Xiao, A Xiao himself is beautiful, but not feminine, and his face also has a man's heroic spirit, but under the misdirection of Fan Yan, Mr. Li mistakenly thought that A Xiao was deliberately dressed as a man, so he made a joke.
"Slightly!" Fan Yan grimaced at her side, apparently knowing that it was her own reason.
The martial arts department is set up in the school hall of the county seat, and the difference between Jianyi City and other big county towns can be seen here, and in the entire Jianyi City, only Su Jie, Li Qiwu, A Xiao, and a few other people in the martial arts department are not bad, but in other large counties, as far as the students in the school are concerned, this level can be no less than the number of hands.
The big reason for this is that it comes from the academy, the Jianyi City Academy is very vulgar, and there are not even real cultivators in it - even the lowest level of the Yongquan realm is not, there are only a few gentlemen who teach body forging techniques here, and Su Jie and Li Qiwu are not taught by the academy at all, they are all cultivated by their respective big families.
Everyone teased again, and finally left, Zhao Li and Xiong also agreed that the day after tomorrow, the school would set off, led by Chen Laohu, to Yi'an County, and then the Zhao commander in the county led everyone to Geshan.
"Ah Xiao, do you have any opinions?" On the way back to Tuochuan Street, Fan Yan Su Jie asked curiously, Su Jie knew that Ah Xiao had a cultivator to guide him, so he was also quite curious about the identity of that person.
Ah Xiao shook his head, he didn't know what the county wanted to do for the time being, but he had a gut feeling that it shouldn't be peaceful on the top of the pavilion mountain.
The situation here in Yi'an County can be said to be getting worse and worse, a few years ago, Ah Xiao saw the wolf king of the Yongquan realm in Yushan, and then, I heard my grandfather say that the monsters on Geshan rioted, causing the bandits to almost die, and this is why the ghost-faced thieves ran through Jianyi City.
The boy muttered, "Anyway, it's okay to be careful. ”
After the three of them said goodbye, Ah Xiao returned to his small courtyard.
The old Taoist priest was still lazily basking in the sun there, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he got up and asked, "What did the county call you to do?"
"Nothing serious. Ah Xiao replied, "It's planning to ask our Jianyi Academy to go to the county for the exam, and the trial ground is going to be placed in Geshan." ”
"Geshan?" The old Taoist priest was a little surprised when he heard this, "What is the county doing with the trial ground in Geshan?Geshan is still too difficult for you, it was once the most dangerous Jedi in Huainan Province, do you want you little cubs to send them to death?"
"The basic strength of the students in this kind of academy in the county is at the level of body forgers, and some of them can only be regarded as relatively weak body forgers, and how many nightmares and monsters are there on the pavilion mountain? There are countless of them, and the students in the entire Yi'an County are only five hundred at most, and the county is really crazy. ”
Ah Xiao didn't know why the county was so relieved of these students, but the order was always ordered, and he always had to go, so he asked, "How much do you know about the monsters on Geshan, grandpa?"
"Monsters......" The old Taoist priest thought for a while, "I haven't paid attention to these monsters, because I haven't been to Geshan back then, but the most famous thing on Liuyang Peak is Liuyang Evil Qi, that thing should be formed after Zhao Wuxiang's death, and many people have wanted to capture it in the past hundred years, but unfortunately I haven't heard of anyone really capturing it until now." ”
Ah Xiao was a little disappointed, originally he wanted to get some useful news, so that at least he could reduce the casualties on the Goshan Mountain.
Don't look at this group of children gearing up and being in high spirits, but they are all just fledgling teenagers, and when they encounter real monsters, it is estimated that they will have a lot of deaths and injuries.
The old Taoist priest is very relieved that Ah Xiao, he is also a sophisticated existence, he can clearly see that Ah Xiao's life pass is full of heaven and earth vitality, and the peach tree will make the entire life pass secret realm stronger and stronger, he can feel that if he opens the life pass, then this powerful vitality may be able to directly rush through Ah Xiao's second secret realm - Yongquan!
The real Yongquan realm, if you have this kind of strength, as long as you don't enter the real interior of Liuyang Peak, you can basically walk sideways.
......
"Drive!"
On the country road, the boy was galloping on his horse, bringing up smoke and dust along the way.
Before going to Yi'an County, Sui Han warned him to come to Yushan again, there are some things he wants to give to Ah Xiao, and the location is still the place where he met the wolf king back then, Ah Xiao has not asked what it is, and then he stopped talking.
"Alas. He sighed helplessly.
The road is still the same road, the rice is still the rice, and the young man at this time is no longer the weak child, Ah Xiao now even if he does not open the secret realm, without the help of the power of the Yuan Qi, he firmly believes that he can easily kill ordinary body forgers.
The paddy on both sides of the road is already showing signs of yellowing, and it may be less than a month before the busy harvest begins.
Ah Xiao said goodbye to the old Taoist priest, listened to Sui Han's words, and planned to come to Yushan again.
He has never been back to Yushan over the years, and he has never had this plan, there are many factors in this, Ah Xiao himself can't understand, maybe he may touch the scene?
The horse carried the young man at a gallop, galloping all the way from Jianyi City to the foot of Jade Mountain.
Ah Xiao dismounted and saw the tombstone at the foot of Yushan Mountain.
The young man walked to the tombstone and found that after all these years, the tombstone of Chen Gong at the foot of the mountain had not been flooded with weeds, and he looked down, as if he remembered some things from before.
"It's all in the past, what do I remember from the past?" Ah Xiao smiled self-deprecatingly, the young man's eyes gradually became firm, isn't his hard work in cultivation just to prevent this kind of thing from happening again?
He looked at the Yushan Mountain Range that stretched to the horizon, and at this moment it was already sunset, and the sunlight in the sky shone on the tombstone glowing with black light, shining with dazzling light, as if telling the power of the master in his lifetime.
Ah Xiao drove the horse to the home of a nearby grave keeper and stepped into the Jade Mountain again.
Before taking away, the grave keeper hurriedly called out to Ah Xiao and admonished: "Little brother, it's almost night, don't go to the mountain, come back early, just spend the night with me, the wolves on the jade mountain are so fierce at night, although this is still the daytime, but you still have to settle a few eyes!"
Ah Xiao agreed with a smile, and then went up to Yushan.
The temperature of the Yushan Mountains gradually decreases at dusk, and the dense leaves of the camphor tree hide into the night.
Ah Xiao stepped into the Jade Mountain at night, his footsteps stepped on the yellow mud on the trail and made a sound unique to the soil, the Taiyin Star gradually rose to the middle of the sky, and it took a few hours, Ah Xiao came to the place where he met the wolf king of Yushan a few years ago, and he was lucky to not meet the wild wolf along the way.
A few years have passed, and there hasn't been much change, except that the trees seem to grow taller.
"Next, just wait for the fog to come. Sui Han, who had been silent, spoke.
"Fog?" Ah Xiao didn't quite understand, but vaguely felt that it had something to do with it, and he asked, "What are you talking about, that Thousand Lights Lake Mansion?"
"But isn't it just a dream?"
"Dream?" Sui Han laughed, "Is that red bead chain on your wrist also brought from the dream?"
Ah Xiao was silent, he couldn't explain it, after all, he remembered that this beaded chain was given to him by a girl in the Qiandeng Lake Mansion.
But the strange thing was here, after he went back, he couldn't find the Qiandeng Lake Mansion on the map, and at that time he guessed that maybe everything was a dream.
Sui Han explained: "About reality and illusion, this is a very mysterious topic, I thought it was your dream before, but in the last few years I have only figured out some things in it, but with your current vision and cultivation, I can't understand it at all, so just do what I say." ”
Ah Xiao nodded.
As Sui Han said, just after midnight, the mist began to appear in the forest so silently, and finally the entire forest was drowned, Ah Xiao was naturally in the fog, he wanted to open his eyes to see the things nearby, but found that he had completely lost his way.
There were faint lights in the fog, and the sound of opera could be heard.
"It turns out that the purple and red are blooming all over the place, and they seem to be paid to the broken wells and decay. Tonight here is really like a dream, and I am surprised and happy......
Ah Xiao looked up, and the lights were two large lanterns.
"It's really there!" He was surprised and delighted, and ran forward quickly, and sure enough, it was the mysterious mansion again!
But when Ah Xiao really walked to the door of the mansion, he froze, the originally prosperous Qiandeng Lake Mansion had long since disappeared, leaving only the ruins of the wall, and the fine Shu brocade on the lantern had already decayed, revealing the short and pitiful wick inside.
"Don't be surprised, go inside the door, there's your stuff there. Sui Han said.
Ah Xiao pushed the door open in disbelief, and the door creaked open, shaking off a puff of dust.
The inside of the door was still desolate, but there was a bronze ancient sword and something else stuck in the doorway, but there was still a strange opera sound wafting in the whole courtyard.
The courtyard is still like the end of a dream, leaving only the abandoned singing stone platform.
Ah Xiao picked up the ancient sword and looked at it carefully, he hadn't taken a good look at this sword before, now it seems that the ancient sword should be a work of the previous dynasty, the whole is cyan, but the blue quenching marks are still left on the sword body, the sword is about three feet long, and it is an eight-sided ancient sword.
Ah Xiao gently stroked the eight inscriptions on the sword, as if touching the hand of the most familiar old friend in the world.
"Come with me to Yi'an County?"
Unexpectedly, the ancient sword trembled slightly, as if in response.
He laughed, "Let's go." ”
As the sound fell, the fog suddenly dissipated, and the Qiandeng Lake Mansion disappeared with it.
