Volume 1 A Finger Frozen for 90,000 Miles Chapter 1 Drinking Alone Under the Moon
"I knelt in front of the Buddha for 3,000 years, and I didn't see my Buddha feel pity. ”
Meng Chen groaned lightly, drank the liquor in his hand, and the cup fell into his stomach with the bright moon. His eyes were cold and hollow.
He was dressed in white, sitting quietly on a chair under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, his handsome face was slightly red, and the eye-catching white hair behind him seemed to have undergone the trials of this earthly world and was full of vicissitudes.
The night breeze blew, and many strands of hair fell, like winter flowers, which had withered. However, the fleeting coldness in his eyes was as sharp as a blade. It doesn't fit in with that gray hair.
"There will be no immortal ...... after the beginning," he whispered, Meng Chen's gaze seemed to fall on the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, but it seemed to penetrate this space and fall into another world.
"Have you finally accepted your fate?" A whisper sounded behind her, it was a beautiful woman, she was dressed in red, under the slender jade neck, a piece of soft white jade, hazy, a bundle of plain waist, not even a hand, a pair of slender and well-proportioned legs were exposed, this woman's outfit was undoubtedly extremely glamorous, but this Yanye seemed to be much inferior to her demeanor, she stood behind Meng Chen so quietly, but the bright moonlight reflected her in the mud.
Meng Chen didn't look back, just drank the liquor in the cup again, and after putting down the cup in his hand, his eyes were on the bright moon again.
"It's just that the sky is irreversible. On the contrary, it is destroyed. ”
Hearing this, the eyes of the beautiful woman were filled with disappointment. Looking at the decadent figure in the courtyard, she bit her red lip, and then said:
"Two things. ”
"First, I'm going back. The woman paused, and seeing that Meng Chen was still looking at the bright moon in the night sky in a daze, she slowly clenched her fists.
"Second, Panyu appeared in Tianxuan Cliff. ”
The word Panyu came out. Meng Chen's originally motionless body trembled violently. Although it was fleeting, the woman still caught it, and the woman's clenched fist slowly let go.
He didn't accept his fate.
"Fate, goodbye. After speaking, the woman disappeared, leaving only a wisp of breeze and fragrance in place.
Meng Chen still didn't move, but his eyes that looked at Jiaoyue in a daze loosened at the moment the woman left.
"Fate...... Is it?"
Even if it is a deep love, it is also empty to seek without a fate.
After a long time, the sadness in Meng Chen's eyes slowly disappeared, and was replaced by an increasingly cold chill.
"Lao Xing. ”
Footsteps rang out behind him.
"Childe. An old man appeared behind him respectfully.
"Tomorrow the valley will be opened, and you and I will go to Tianxuan Cliff together. ”
"Childe, this is ...... Are you going to reappear in the clouds?" the old man's somewhat stiff body trembled, which was excited. It has been three years since that incident, and for three years they have lived a life far away from the world and do not care about the world, but they did not expect that one day they would be able to set foot on the continent where they once stormed again.
Seeing Meng Chen nodded. The old man's excitement is self-evident.
"I'm going to prepare!" Lao Xing retreated.
After drinking the last drop of liquor in the cup, a faint smile slowly appeared on Meng Chen's face, contrasting with the coldness in the depths of his eyes, and a cold and solemn feeling arose.
.....
Youlan Valley.
One of the top ten dangerous places in the Yunxiao Continent, the valley is filled with white fog all year round, and occasionally high-level spirit beasts appear, if you set foot easily, there is no return date.
Not long ago, I heard that someone had found a four-legged spirit beast outside the valley. The lion's head, the horse's body, the dragon's scales, and the tail hair stretch like an ox's tail, so that the strange beast is completely consistent with the legendary unicorn, and many cultivators heard the news in an instant, and the originally uninhabited Youlan Valley has become extremely lively.
However, the name of the dangerous place in Youlan Valley is not in vain, and almost all the cultivators who enter the valley return with a feather in the feather, or never return again. Despite this, there are still many cultivators who want to go to that dangerous place to find out.
Just today, the white fog that originally filled the entire valley began to slowly dissipate. The cultivators outside the valley who had been silent suddenly boiled, and they all rushed towards the valley.
At the same time, two figures in the depths of the forest slowly walked towards the outside of the valley, it was Meng Chen and Lao Xing.
During the leisurely steps of the two, within a radius of dozens of miles around them, there was not a trace of the shadow of the spirit beast, as if the spirit beasts in this dangerous place were gone.
"Childe, it seems that a lot of people are visiting. Lao Xing, who was following behind Meng Chen, glanced at the direction outside the valley.
"People go to tea and cool, people go to empty buildings, and they are no longer there, so what's the use. Meng Chen said lightly. He walked very slowly, so slow that Lao Xing had to stop and wait for him after he took a few steps, and wanted to go up to help him several times, but he held back.
Looking at the back of his son-in-law, Lao Xing sighed in his heart, if it weren't for the incident three years ago, his son would not have turned white overnight. This leads to the current appearance. However, he has always believed that the leader who once stood in the sky will return again. Even though...... Against this day.
The two didn't walk long before they saw a group of people.
A group of more than a dozen people wearing the same costumes should be from the same sect. The leader is a strong man with a mountain-splitting axe. The group was besieging a four-legged spirit deer. Although it was a third-order spirit beast, it couldn't endure many people, and it didn't take long for it to fall under everyone's axes.
"Damn, there are so many spirit beasts in this broken place. The strong man at the head wiped the blood from the axe with his hand as he spoke.
"Boss, why don't you peel this spirit core and sell it, it's a lot of money. "A thief said.
"Get out, there's so much time. As long as we catch the legendary fire unicorn and give it to the people of the Nine Sects, we will have the opportunity to enter the Heavenly Xuan Cliff, and then won't the Heavenly Treasures be taken at will?"
was about to ignore Meng Chen, who was leaving, but suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed. The matter of Panyu appearing in Tianxuan Cliff, does everyone in the world know about it?
"Nine Sect ......" Lao Xing Gang muttered, and immediately stopped. The word "Nine Sects" is a big taboo for Meng Chen.
Sure enough, as soon as these two words came out, Meng Chen's godless eyes immediately gathered, and a cold indifference flashed under his eyes. Lao Xing only felt trembling all over, and instinctively regressed.
"Who!?" the strong man not far away suddenly shouted, just now he suddenly felt a killing intent running through his body, and subconsciously said loudly. It wasn't until the word blurted out that he realized he was trembling. That murderous intent was too strong! It was terrifying.
When he saw the two people who appeared not far away, he was stunned again. What's going on, two old men?
"This young man, can you tell me a thing or two about Tianxuan Cliff just now?" It was Lao Xing who spoke, and Meng Chen followed him this time.
The strong man glanced at Lao Xing, who was speaking, but his eyes were on Meng Chen's body.
The white-haired young man would have told them to get out of here according to his usual temperament, but the killing intent just now made him have to reconsider this issue.
"I don't know what this senior wants to know?" Because he was afraid of the strangeness of the two, the strong man replied honestly, his eyes had been on Meng Chen's body. As for the group of people beside him, I am afraid that they have not recovered from the killing thought, and they all looked at it in a daze.
"According to rumors, Tianxuan Cliff is a place of enlightenment, how can you say that the treasure of heaven and earth comes from?"
"The predecessors didn't know, a few days ago it was said that the nine great powers had a glimpse of the heavens, and found that there were immortal traces hidden under the cliff, containing a bronze giant door, and the door was inlaid with a special spirit stone, saying that it was the key. So the people of the Nine Sects divided it into nine pieces, and each of them held all of it. He also spread out that as long as the treasure is presented before the full moon, there will be a chance to enter the bronze gate together. ”
"Don't the people of the Nine Sects take such benefits for themselves?" Lao Xing wondered. And Meng Chen behind him, the godless gaze has changed.
"It seems that inside the bronze gate is a different world that no one has ever stepped into. Heaven and earth treasures are everywhere, and of course, there will be some unheard of spirit beasts, so the Nine Sects use this method to recruit cultivators. ”
"Isn't this just treating cultivators as stepping stones?" Lao Xing frowned.
"Alas, the temptation of this heavenly treasure is not small, what about this life for cultivators. ”
"Yes, too. Lao Xing responded. Seeing Meng Chen turn around and leave, he hurriedly followed.
The strong man behind him raised his hand, which meant to stop the two of them. But in the end, the words came to his lips but he did not say them.
"Old ...... Boss, what's going on?" a voice said.
The strong man raised his hand and slapped the person who spoke. I saw that the man flew out a few feet away at once, holding his red and swollen face and looking at the strong man in astonishment.
"Let's do the work for Lao Tzu!" After dropping a sentence, the strong man walked towards the depths of the forest. When leaving, he didn't forget to look back at the place where Meng Chen and the others disappeared.
