The land of the Central Plains, vast and boundless, for thousands of years, countless romantic figures, like fireworks, appeared on this vast land, booming, and with the replacement of countless dynasties, civilization is prosperous, the population is multiplying, with the increase of the people, more and more barren land, and gradually become towns, fertile fields, forests, mountains. However, when today's big, vast thousands of miles can not be counted, outside the Central Plains, there are more corners of the four wildernesses, surrounded by them, the four wilderness land, the wilderness thousands of miles, few people, countless flood species, poisonous beasts, all in it, but with the prosperity of the Central Plains, there are also some people diverted to the four wilderness land, after thousands of years of reproduction, there have been many small-scale towns, like a spark, dotted among them.

In late spring and early summer, the weather has gradually become hot and dry, and the breeze is blowing, with bursts of warmth, and suddenly there is a crisp neighing of horses in a winding mountain road that is rarely inhabited. Two tall horses walked slowly on the mountain road. These two horses, fat and strong, the whole body is shiny, the horse's mane is light, the head is neighing, at a glance you know the extreme of the horse, the two horses one after the other, not in a hurry to walk forward, on the horse, sat two young knights. The knight who walked in front of him was wearing a moon-white robe, and above the robe, it was as white as snow, while the knight who walked behind seemed to be ill, his body was emaciated, and his pale face showed a sickly flush.

In the southern wilderness, thousands of miles away are uninhabited, there are countless poor mountains and bad waters, poisonous snakes and beasts, this mountain road is extremely narrow, and the road is overgrown with weeds and thorns, but these two people appear here for some reason, looking at the situation, the two of them don't seem to be in a hurry to hurry, just casually urging the horses forward. After a while, the mountain road ahead took a turn, and the outline of a small town at the foot of the mountain was faintly discernible in the distance.

The young man who walked in front of him, between his eyebrows, there was a faint trace of anxiety, and when he suddenly saw it at this moment, he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, "Senior Brother Ye, look, there is a small town in front. The sick young man sneered and said coldly, "How many times have I told you, don't call me Senior Brother Ye, I have long been expelled from the door wall by the Xuanqing Sect, and at this moment I am just a layman, without any cultivation in my body, how can I afford to be called Senior Brother by the Shingon Master of Wuxiang Temple." The two people who spoke were Zhenyan and Ye Jianan.

Zhenyan smiled slightly, unmoved, and continued, "Senior Brother Ye, whether you are expelled from Xuanqing or not, you are still Uncle Ye's own son, and Uncle Ye and my teacher are the same generation, and with affection and reason, Zhenyan should call you Senior Brother." Ye Jianan's face sank, and he snorted coldly, don't turn your head, don't make a sound. Zhenyan casually brushed away the weeds in front of the horse, "Senior Brother Ye, you have a strange poison in your body, although there is a true element of unknown origin in your body wrapped in poison, but no one knows how long this true yuan can last, with the size of the world, only the high priest of Miao Wu in the land of Jichuan can understand, Zhenyan really can't figure it out, why don't you just let me fly with you in the sky, but to ride a horse forward, every morning and snooze, noon and too hot, but also ride a horse slowly, every day is only dozens of miles, In this way, when can you find the Miao Wu clan to relieve the poison on your body. ”

At that time, Manyan carried the unconscious Ye Jianan down the mountain, all the way, he didn't dare to stop, flying in the sky day and night, straight to the southern wilderness, who knew that after Ye Jianan was in a coma for seven days, he woke up on his own, like a serious illness, and his body was extremely weak. Between raising hands and feet, it is quite difficult. In fact, Ye Jianan has been in the Xuanqing Sect since he was a child, and he has taken a lot of various elixirs, although he is lazy by nature, and he has not made much progress in cultivation, but his foundation is extremely solid, and he is also a loss, otherwise under the Ten Thousand Ghosts of the Netherworld Sect Xingluo, he would have been unable to withstand it for a long time, and he would have died. Then in the blood room, the world is poisonous, the ghost god bead and the seven poisons are wonderfully reborn, two powerful forces treat his body as a battlefield, fighting back and forth, if it is not for the critical moment after the ghost god bead spontaneously protects the master, divides a wisp of true yuan, and protects Ye Jianan's heart, I am afraid that Ye Jianan will not live at this moment, Rao is so, with Ye Jianan's body, he can no longer stand it, and he is unconscious.

Although the weather has gradually become hotter, Ye Jianan still has rows of fine cold sweat on his forehead, after a serious illness, there will be a great deficiency, he raised his sleeves, wiped his face, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about, besides, at this moment, with my body, if I am in a hurry day and night, I am afraid that if I haven't found the high priest, I will die on the road." As for flying in the sky, it is not necessary, and my generation of laypeople can't stand flying around in the sky. In case one of them falls down carelessly......" he raised his eyebrows and grinned at the corners of his mouth, "that would save a lot of trouble." ”

The mantra didn't answer, Ye Jianan woke up from a coma, and refused to fly in the sky again, the mantra couldn't resist Ye Jianan, and in desperation, he had to fall down, find a market, and buy two high-headed horses as a substitute.

In the southern wilderness, located in the extreme south, in late spring and early summer, the weather is capricious and unpredictable, often in the morning when the sun rises in the east, and after a few hours, it suddenly rains. It had only been long since the sun was suddenly covered by dark clouds and a strong wind. The two men and two horses were walking on this barren mountain, and when they looked around the front and back of the mantra, there was no place to shelter from the rain. I was about to clap my horse forward, but I heard a lazy voice sound, "Hey, Master, it's going to rain soon, and you still have to hurry?" The mantra turned around, and Ye Jianan turned over and dismounted and walked down.

Sitting on horseback, Mantra looked up at the sky, above the gloomy sky, lightning and pen, like a dragon and snake, from time to time across the sky. He frowned, "Senior Brother Ye, why don't we hurry for a while and see if there is a cave ahead that can shelter from the rain." "The barren mountains and mountains here are remote and inhuman, and if you want to say that you can shelter from the rain, there are only some naturally formed caves.

Ye Jianan opened his mouth, but before he could speak, a raindrop the size of a bean had already hit his face. He pointed to the sky, "It's already raining, master, since you are in a hurry, then I, a patient, have no choice but to follow you in the rain. ”

Ye Jianan has been sharp and sharp since he was a child, and at this moment, a few words said so, but the master of the mantra of Wuxiang Temple was dumbfounded, and the mantra turned his head, and saw that Ye Jianan was holding the reins, ready to turn over and get on the horse, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly dismounted and rushed to Ye Jianan's side, "Senior Brother Ye, why don't we take shelter from the rain here first." ”

Ye Jianan turned his head to look at the mantra and hesitated, "This is not very good, right?" It's better to ...... in a hurry" Before he finished speaking, a thunderclap sounded instantly, and then soybean-like raindrops fell in an instant. After just a few breaths, the shoulders of the two were already wet, the tip of the right finger of the mantra was slightly bright, and a hazy yellow light lit up slightly, and then a curtain of light rose around the two of them, like a round ball, enveloping the two of them. This dense shower hit this light curtain, as if it had hit an invisible wall, and the rain splashed in all directions.

Ye Jianan smiled, "Master Shingon, you use the Phaseless True Method to deal with demons to shelter from the wind and rain, it is inevitably a bit overkill." Zhenyan was calm, and he naturally ignored Ye Jianan's slightly frivolous words, he just glanced at Ye Jianan, closed his eyes slightly, folded his hands, sat cross-legged, and cultivated on his own.

After a while, he heard Ye Jianan's faint voice coming, "You, do you know what happened to the Netherworld Sect?" The truth couldn't help but open his eyes, and there was a slight surprise in his unparalleled eyes. Along the way, the two walked together, Ye Jianan laughed and scolded for a while, sneered, pretended to be crazy and stupid, talked nonsense, and also lost the truth to his very stable heart, he didn't know about it, but kept urging Ye Jianan to hurry. If it had been an ordinary person, Ye Jianan would have been so angry that he would have gone.

It's just that although Ye Jianan is messing around all the way, he doesn't say a word about the things in the cultivation, even the strange poison on his body, and the marks that appear between his eyebrows for no reason, these things that are closely related, and even related to his life, have never been mentioned, it seems that these things have nothing to do with him at all. At this time, the first thing Ye Jianan said when he opened his mouth was the Netherworld Sect!

Mantra turned his head to look at Ye Jianan, but Ye Jianan turned his head and said disdainfully, "You better don't say it, I'm too lazy to know." Before the words fell, the low voice of the mantra sounded, "In the battle of the Netherworld Mountain, the Netherworld Sect can be said to be wiped out by the whole army, the blood floating slaughter is gone, the Netherworld Sect lost the blood floating slaughter, the dragons are leaderless, the whole army is annihilated, under the Youqi Mountain, the general altar of the Netherworld Sect is also destroyed, all the protectors, altar masters, and the Netherworld dead are all annihilated in one fell swoop, and their sect secrets and codes are also burned, so to speak, there is no such Netherworld ...... in this world."

"Where's Xingluo?" As the mantra was speaking, Ye Jianan suddenly asked.

"Hey, you know him, too?" Truthfulness asked, puzzled.

"What about the others, are they dead?" Ye Jianan nodded, and there was a slight urgency in his voice. Zhenyan glanced at Ye Jianan, it seemed a little strange, "Xingluo is the closed disciple of the Blood Floating Slaughter, among the three major disciples of the Blood Floating Slaughter, the cultivation is the last, and in the chaotic battle, no one noticed him, so he must have died inside." He paused for a moment and continued, "After the Netherworld Sect was destroyed, my master and Xuanqing's Uncle Bai joined forces to collapse the entire Netherworld Palace and bury it under the Netherworld Mountain. ”

Zhenyan turned his eyes, and saw Ye Jianan respond lightly, and there was no joy or sorrow on his calm face. On the light curtain behind him, the rain splashed, and at a glance, Ye Jianan was obviously very close to him, but he felt like he was far away, and on his pale face, the marks between his eyebrows were all carrying a wisp of sorrow as red as blood.

In spring, the face of the child changes three times a day. The rain came quickly, went quickly, a moment later, the clouds collected the rain, the mantra received the spell, in this mountain, the grass and trees, under the storm, and with a piece of earthy fragrance, although it is overgrown with weeds, but it has its own sense of vitality, although the two are used to seeing the famous mountains and rivers, but they can't help but be attracted by the different scenery of the new mountain after the rain, the two stayed for a while, but they were stunned to find that the sudden rainstorm poured, in a hurry, they forgot to tie the reins of the horses, and then look at it again, The two horses had long since disappeared, and the mountains were empty, and the two looked around, where could they still be found.

Sixiang Town is a small town located in the southern wilderness border, originally there was no population settled here, later the Central Plains of various countries to conquer and war, there is a very small part of the people, unbearable war and killing, over the mountains and mountains, circulate in all directions, and finally fled to this place, cut down wood and build houses, reclaim wasteland, so settled, hundreds of years down, men and women are married, once a deserted land, but also gradually prosperous. Later, someone accidentally picked a 500-year-old Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain behind the town, and the whole town became a sensation.

Three hundred years of Poria cocos, four hundred years of He Shou Wu, and even some people went up the mountain for several months to dig up a formed ginseng, all kinds of rare natural treasures, in this small town on the border of the southern wilderness, have been displayed in front of the world. Although the people in the town are silent about this, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, gradually, more and more outsiders, poured into this town, this originally quiet and almost isolated town, suddenly became lively, and even once outsiders accounted for more than nine times the population of the original town, these outsiders, in groups, went into the mountains to hunt for treasures, after collecting elixir, and then sold to the major pharmacies in the Central Plains, which also made some of the people who came first, ruthlessly rich. Later, someone simply rented a shop in the town, specially poured these medicinal materials, bought them at a low price, and then transported them to the Central Plains, and sold them at a sky-high price. In that year, the town expanded rapidly, and the scope of the town expanded more than ten times compared to the original, and the outline of the town was faintly visible.

However, the good times did not last long, just when everyone was full of joy, intending to let go and make a lot of money, suddenly there was a medicine collection team, silently disappeared in the mountains and forests, originally people did not care, deep mountain medicine, as little as a few days, long as months, that is also a common thing, but after half a month, another medicine collection team found the original missing medicine collection team The corpses of the original missing medicine collection team personnel, a team of more than 20 people, none of them lived, all the corpses of all people, as if they had been eaten and bitten by wild beasts, All of them were bitten off their throats and died of exhaustion.

There was a disagreement within this medicine collection team, some people thought that they had gone deep into danger and it was not appropriate to continue to go deeper, while the other part of the people, but insisted on seeking wealth and danger, and still wanted to continue to go deeper, so some people turned back to the town, and the other people continued to move forward, the news spread to the town, and immediately caused a sensation, at first the vast majority of people felt that it was just alarmist, but as more and more medicine collection teams died tragically in the wilderness, everyone was silent, according to the tragic death of the corpse wounds, This is clearly an extremely bloodthirsty beast.

Gradually, fewer and fewer people dared to go into the mountains to collect medicine, fortunately, the unknown beast was only raging in the mountains, in the four townships, but it has always been as usual, some people turned back to the original place, and some people began to settle in the four towns, they brought the rich products of the Central Plains here, and sold some things unique to the Southern Wilderness to the Central Plains, but the profits were not low.

Hundreds of years later, the mountains behind Sixiang Town seem to have become forbidden land, and almost no one dares to go up the mountain anymore, and Sixiang Town has become a relatively prosperous town, even compared with some towns in the Central Plains, it may not be much inferior.

According to the idea of the mantra, I didn't want to enter the city, the Miao Wu family, living in seclusion, although this place is a southern wilderness, but it can never be the place where Miao Wu lives, Ye Jianan insists on entering the city, thousands of miles of barren land has come over like this, eat wild fruits and the like every day, want to catch a rabbit, catch a fish, the master of the mantra of the Wuxiang Temple is a face of compassion, "Senior Brother Ye, God has the virtue of a good life, don't kill at will." In the past ten days, Ye Jianan has not been touched by a little meat, and the taste in his mouth has long been gone, and it is easy to come across a town, just go in for a meal and drink wine, of course, he thought so in his heart, but he said, "Master of Truth, the southern wasteland, how vast, these four towns, and this small town within a radius of hundreds of miles, in case someone knows about this Miao Wu, instead of us looking for it without a clue, it is better to go into the city to investigate, and then we can make another calculation." Zhenyan sighed secretly in his heart, he grew up in the Wuxiang Temple since he was a child, and he was held by the Wuxiang precept, and lying is the first precept of Wuxiang, so Zhenyan has never lied since he was a child, but at this moment, with his knowledge, how can he not know what this Senior Brother Ye is thinking in his heart. This Senior Brother Ye, how could he speak so inconsequentially, in the end, the truth still couldn't beat Ye Jianan, and the two of them entered the four towns one after the other.

At this moment, the two of them are walking on the streets of Sixiang Town, although the two of them have experienced all kinds of things, but they have never been out of the Central Plains, the southern wilderness and the borderland, customs and the Central Plains, and it is a different scenery, the terrain here is undulating, the house is also built according to the situation, scattered and chic, the people here, regardless of men and women, most of them are short in stature, dark skin, and the upper part of the wear, but also very different from the Central Plains, most of the men here wear indigo, indigo blue, wear a round cloth hat on the head, the placket of the jacket is obliquely pulled to the waist, and the lower skirt is extremely wide, It is ankle-length, but the color of the woman's clothes is extremely bright, with a wide variety of colors, and there are a lot of silverware on the body.
