112. Seeking

Xi Yutang left, quietly walking.

And no matter how relieved Shen Qi was when he saw the familiar ugly words that almost brought tears to his eyes, everyone was guessing what kind of mood the young master would be, after all, his fiancΓ©e was walking under his nose.

However, surprisingly, Yue Qingfeng just sent a letter to his senior brother who was far away in Qinggu, and then continued to recuperate in Gusu as if nothing happened. There is no impatience, no disappointment, no hysteria, it looks normal, and even the smile on his face is a little more than usual.

What about Xi Yutang?

As Shen Qi had guessed, her condition had indeed improved. In addition to the messy pictures in my head, I am very clear in my self-awareness. She knew that she had gone wrong in her practice, she also knew that she was not clear-headed, she didn't speak well enough, she knew that she was the master of the Xuantian Sect, her parents died and she had a brother, and she knew that she had inexplicably returned to the age of five, and she had amnesia for more than a month in the middle...... Wait a minute.

The reason why she chose to leave Gusu was also to change the environment and sort out her memories.

She took away Yue Qingfeng's jade pendant, exchanged it for a hundred taels of silver, and then headed in the direction of the snow-capped mountain. It's not like you're in a hurry, so you can stop and do whatever you want along the way. Sometimes they live in the wilderness, sometimes they accidentally break into a bandit's den, or they make two friends along the way, or they can find a ruined temple to live in.

has been in this world for more than 20 years, and this is the first time that Xi Yutang has measured the rivers and lakes with his own feet. She subconsciously felt as if she had something undone, but because she couldn't remember, she simply broke the jar and broke it, according to her own heart, to see with her own eyes this world that she had never stopped to look at.

The old man of Hanya once said to Shen Qi and others that Xi Yutang's exercise problem can only be solved by herself, because only she knows herself best. Although Xi Yutang didn't hear it, he was faintly aware of it. The reason for the failure of the retreat seems to be that she was too eager for quick success at the end, and now although her martial arts have recovered, they are not as good as they were at their peak, but on the premise of being able to protect herself, she still decided to take a walk and seek peace of mind and breakthroughs while meditating.

She always felt as if someone had done the same thing before, but it didn't work out if she thought about it. She thinks that her choice is very correct, staying in Gusu, although she can be clothed and fed, and she is accompanied by Yue Qingfeng and Xiaomei, but it is not a good thing for her.

It's just that I feel guilty after all, especially for Yue Qingfeng.

So she didn't deliberately hide her whereabouts, no matter Su Xi or her brother, as long as she wanted to check, she could always find it. Even every time she went to a place, she would write to the two of them seriously, and did not take the path of the dark whistle in Xuantian, but went to the post station seriously, and took the most ordinary flying pigeon to transmit messages. When she encounters something interesting, if she can buy it, she will buy it and give it to Yue Suxi, and if she can't afford it, she will be lazy to draw it, which is also a distraction.

Anyway, she draws hers, and whether she can read it or not is not within her consideration.

What is gratifying is that whether it is Yue Qingfeng or Xi Yulan, they all seem to have acquiesced in her practice of walking the rivers and lakes, and did not come forward to stop her, nor did she provide any help, not even in the money. The two of them were delicate, and they deduced her general route from a few letters, so although Xi Yutang walked as he wanted and never stayed where he was for more than a month, he could still receive letters from the two when he occasionally passed by a slightly larger city.

The elder brother told her to pay attention to safety and not to wronged herself, while Yue Qingfeng spent most of the content talking about her recent situation and then writing love poems.

…… Write love poems!!

He is a proud son of heaven who can take over the position of the head of the first family in the world at any time, and he does not hesitate to use the secret whistles of the Yue family all over the world to send messages and write! Feeling! Poem!

Xi Yutang simply didn't want to pay attention to him.

From Gusu to Snow Mountain, Xi Yutang walked for almost half a year. After all, it was her own home, and Yingqiu had served her for a month, and Elder Chen, Zou Qing and others had already received Shen Qi's letter to understand her general situation, and they would find time to catch up with her every day, but they didn't even let her touch any teaching affairs.

A month later, when Xi Yutang left the snowy mountain, some of the messy pictures in his mind had been strung together, but they were still chaotic, so this time the destination was Luoyang.

With Ouyang Xuan's escape, the former glory on Wushan Mountain was gone. The Wulin League is now torn apart, and the dragons are leaderless, which is the time of chaos. Xi Yutang was also involved in a battle between the rivers and lakes halfway, against two small sects, and finally helped one of them to win. In order to show his gratitude to her, the gang made her the second-in-command and married Jin Lan, but in the end she was pushed by Xi Yutang.

Her true face is shown, and she is alone on the road, wearing the most ordinary clothes, and the entanglement is pitiful, no matter how you look at it, she can't associate it with the famous characters in the rivers and lakes, carrying the Nine Shadows Sword, but the long knife hanging on her waist, the needle and thread are discarded, she looks like an ordinary swordsman in the rivers and lakes, and even when she came to Luoyang later, she saw Lu Zheng, who didn't recognize anyone for a long time.

After Luoyang, she turned south, first went to Lingnan, passed by Quning City and lived in the market for three days, listened to the rumors of leaving the Snow Palace, and then continued to take the land to Jinling, participated in a Jinling Tianwu Gang old gang leader's golden basin hand washing banquet, and then went to Hangzhou, took a turn outside the Yanyutai, and finally lived in the drunken flower building.

After all, Hangzhou is the base camp of the two brothers, and when they learned that their sister/sweetheart had lived in the drunken flower building for ten days, Xi Yulan and Yue Qing couldn't help but run to arrest people.

It's a pity that in the end, Xi Yutang still ran one step ahead of time, and went to Hanzhong in a chic manner with the reluctance and love of many girls in the drunken flower building, as well as the entanglement that the girls raised for her for free.

From Hanzhong to Shuzhong, and finally to the old land of the Tang family, Xi Yutang finally strung together his entire life experience.

A qiΔ“ began with Xi Zhimiao and Tang Zhiyan, from Xuantian to the Tang family, from betrayal to revenge, just like finding the beginning of a big ball of wool, and then a series of events were spread out one by one, and finally converged into a complete memory.

Ziwei Lou, Zhuo Zhengyang, Pei Wuxing, Ouyang Xuan, Wei Han, Jiang Qiantong, Si Li...... No matter how big or small, it's all back to my head.

In the main hall of the Xuantiankou in Shuzhong, Xi Yutang, who was dressed in a dark robe and silver face, sat silently for a whole day after reading all the information at hand, and finally whispered to Yao Jiutang, who had been sitting with her for a day, "...... When I saw Uncle Zou before, I thought that he had always had a broken arm, but I never thought that it was in the past two years. ”

Yao Jiu didn't speak. In the past few years, he has traveled from Xiangyang to Shuzhong, and the territory of the two lakes of Xuantian has doubled in his hands, and he has been stationed in Shuzhong after cooperating with Lie Aotian. Xi Yutang's condition is not a secret among the high-level Xuantian, and hearing him mention his old friend at this time, Yao Jiu felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"Uncle Jiu, what are you going to do next over there, Brother Lie?" She looked at Yao Jiu.

The sturdy man with three scars on his face pondered for a moment before he said in a rough voice, "The Fierce Aotian forces have developed too fast, and they have been on the defensive since the last time they killed the bloody killing, and I am the same, too much. The Leader has an idea? ”

Xi Yutang's fingers clicked on the table for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Steady and steady, it's not too late to wait for the Wulin League to be chaotic again, now the situation is deadlocked, and I am afraid that something will change if I act rashly...... Does Uncle Nine have a relationship with the Governor of the Two Lakes? ”

"What?" Yao Jiu didn't expect her topic to jump so quickly, "There is friendship, but it depends on what the sect leader wants." ”

"I can't give up the light." Xi Yutang said, "Whether it's interests or friendship, even if it's a threat, in short, win him over." Or in other words, take him. ”

Yao Jiu looked deeply at the young man in front of him, "Xiaotang, are you for the ...... Prince? ”

Xi Yutang was noncommittal.

"It's decided?"

"Hmm."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After pondering for a long time, Yao Jiuyi slapped his palm on the table, "Okay, Uncle Nine listens to you, Governor He will hand it over to me." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Nine." Xi Yutang laughed, "Brother Lie, you can help me convey my attitude." ”

Yao Jiu responded with a full mouth.

At the end, when Yao Jiu was about to leave, Xi Yutang called him again, "Uncle Jiu, I don't know how much you know about Southern Xinjiang?" ”

"Southern Xinjiang?" Yao Jiu was stunned, "I know a little." "After all, they are neighbors, and they have dealt with each other for many years, and they can't talk about friendship, but they still have understanding.

The next day, Xi Yutang, who had heard a lot about southern Xinjiang from Yao Jiu, set off to leave Shuzhong.

A month later, she stood at the door of Miao Village in southern Xinjiang, and when she saw the depressed appearance, her heart was indifferent.

Wandering into it, someone quickly stopped it.

"I'm looking for Tianbao." Xi Yutang reported his intentions, "Just say that Yao Jiu has something to give him." ”

Tianbao is a member of the Miao Zhai clan that Yao Jiu met in his early years, he is in his forties, his appearance is not good, although he can see that his martial arts are not high, but Xi Yutang still treats him cautiously. Tianbao lives alone, his wife has died in her early years, and she has no children. Tianbao invited her back to his home, and after Xi Yutang handed over the gifts, he temporarily lived here.

When asked about Tianbao's catastrophe in Miao Village last year, Tianbao's expression changed drastically, his words were unknown, and he didn't want to tell everything about what happened, and in the end he only said a word about the causal cycle.

In his mouth, Xi Yutang only knew that Yue Qingfeng had a conflict with the high-level of Miao Village, and after being imprisoned for nearly a month, he killed the royal family of Miao Village in turn, and there was no one left from the owner of the village to the saint to the elder.

Now the Miao village is in decline, and there is only one son in the royal family, named Xiaofeng. This Xiaofeng is the younger brother of the saint Jin Ling, who was spared because he was the youngest person in the lineage, and now he has been adopted by the elders of the side family.

Xi Yutang didn't go to see the child named Xiaofeng, and after understanding what happened, he chose to leave, and before leaving, he told Tianbao that he would go to find Yao Jiu if he had something, and then quietly left all his entanglements.

After leaving southern Xinjiang, she hesitated for a long time before deciding to take a trip to Yizhang Peak.

There is still only one predecessor of the cold cliff on Yizhang Peak, this time, he did not embarrass Xi Yutang, probably because he was afraid that the peach blossom array that had grown well would become ruins again.

After discussing martial arts with the old man of Hanya for a few days, Xi Yutang chose to retreat again. This time, I believe that even if she can't practice the complete Taichu Chu method, she can at least correct the difference between the last time she went mad, and it is no longer possible to be greedy and rash.

At that time, it had been more than a year since she left Gusu, and her state of mind became more and more peaceful, and the experience brought by walking the rivers and lakes did not make her martial arts better, but gave her a new understanding of life. She was not as anxious as she used to be when it came to revenge.

Three months later, on the cold ice jade bed between the cliffs of Yizhang Peak, after the final adjustment and impact, Xi Yutang slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the thin layer of frost on her fingertips, she clenched her fists sharply and flew out. Behind her, there was a loud bang, and the entire cave collapsed suddenly.

-- The last layer of the Taichuxin method was successful.

"Stinky girl!" The roar of the old man of the cold cliff can make people's blood churn even if it is more than half of the cliff.

Xi Yutang almost didn't lift his breath to climb up the mountain, and it took a long time to stabilize before he climbed up from the cliff step by step under the huge pressure that enveloped the entire mountain. When she lay on the boulder on the edge of the cliff with all her strength, she saw the angry appearance of the old man of the cold cliff blowing his beard and glaring.

"Lao Tzu's cold jade bed was ruined like this?!! Who gave you the guts! You open it to Lao Tzu! ”

Xi Yutang was so tired that he couldn't speak, waved his hand, and before he could spit out the words of apology, he was vigorously pushed back into the cliff by the old man of the cold cliff.

It's just murderous!

After falling off the cliff, he took a hot spring, and Xi Yutang, who had adjusted his state, thought again and again, and did not dare to walk the peach blossom array, so he had to look up at the cliff and choose to climb back on foot. After climbing all the way for three hours, when she was about to take the last step, a pair of feet appeared in front of her.

Trying to look up at the old man of the cold cliff, Xi Yutang showed a flattering smile, "Senior, let me go up?" ”

The old man of the cold cliff snorted coldly, his eyes turned around on her fingers deeply embedded in the cliff, and he squatted down and stretched out a finger against her head, "You can try." ”

Xi Yutang: "......"

The two fought from noon to sunset between the cliffs of a zhang peak, although Xi Yutang's strength increased greatly, but he was still defeated by his predecessors, and the psychology of self-expansion because of the previous practice of Taichu disappeared at this moment, replaced by heartfelt gratitude to this senior.

She knew that this was the old man of Hanya who was fighting in TongguΓ² to guide her to further consolidate her foundation, and to be familiar with her own strength, so she knew that she couldn't fight, and she also raised all her strength to deal with it, abandoning the victory and defeat, and only seeking the process.

After the battle, she immediately sat cross-legged on the big stone and breathed, sat all night, and finally completely completed the cultivation of the primordial when the first rays of sunlight appeared.

"What you have achieved today is rare in the world." I don't know when, the old man of the cold cliff appeared behind her, and the old man's voice was full of emotion, "So, don't do evil." ”

Xi Yutang kowtowed, "Don't worry." ”

"My big apprentice ......" The old man of Hanya had a complicated expression, and he sighed for a long time, "You might as well go to the underground palace of the Northern Capital to find out." ”

Raising his head in a daze, Xi Yutang was silent for a long time before nodding, "Okay." ”

Helping the person in front of him up, the old man of Hanya looked at Xi Yutang, "Sure enough, I was more likable when I was a child." ”

…… Thinking of some bad memories, the little sect leader Xi suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth.

"Alright, let's go down the mountain." The old-timers waved in disgust to drive people away.

Xi Yutang put away his depression and solemnly bowed to the old man, "Thank you for the life-saving grace and guidance of the seniors, the younger generations have nothing to repay." ”

The old man of Cold Cliff glanced at her angrily, turned around and entered the bamboo house.

……

Not long after coming down from Yizhang Peak, Xi Yutang met Shaoguang who came to meet on the way back to Gusu.

"Master!" Shaoguang handed over the secret letter, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will get married on the fifteenth of next month." ”

Xi Yutang was stunned and took the secret letter, "Si Li is going to marry a wife?" Who's from? ”

"The second daughter of the Xie family." Shaoguang said, "The marriage was set two years ago, when you were in retreat. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Looking at the short sentence on the secret letter, Xi Yutang was silent for a long time. It turned out that the child she raised single-handedly was finally going to get married.

Sighing, she casually destroyed the secret letter and said lightly, "Go to the capital." ”
