137, off the mountain
With the permission of Qingyuan Daojun, Yan Xiao was not publicized, but just gave a few good friends the news that he was going to go down the mountain.
After returning from the secret realm, most of the friends had met her again, and although they were a little puzzled by her descent from the mountain at this time, no one asked her questions.
All the messages come back as blessings and exhortations.
The only thing that gave Yan Xiao a headache was Ning Yuan. After he learned that Yan Xiao went down the mountain to find a medicinal herb, and this medicinal herb could help Mu Lin recover his meridians, he couldn't sit still. Say whatever you say, you have to go with Yan Xiao.
Although Ning Yuan's body is much better now, he can move around normally, and his recovery speed is amazing, but Yan Xiao is still a little worried.
As a last resort, she had to stab this matter to her master and father, begging them to stop Ning Yuan.
"Oh? Ning Yuan, this kid wants to go with you? After hearing Yan Xiao's words, Su Jian Zhenren only raised her eyebrows, although she said questioning words, but her tone did not have the slightest doubt, as if she had expected it a long time ago.
Yan Xiao was about to nod his head and explain the importance of the matter to the master, but he didn't expect Tongchen Zhenren to speak directly on the side.
"Just let that kid go with you, you go alone, I, your master and the ancestor are very worried, if you take that kid again, you two can take care of you along the way, and the three of us can wait for you to come back with peace of mind."
Come on, the master was not worried, and even thought that Ning Yuan could still take care of her with this body, and Yan Xiao couldn't say anything, so he had to respond.
When I arrived at Ning Yuan's cave mansion, I saw that guy with an expression that I knew, and I sat on the couch for a long time and listened to her relay his master's words.
Yan Xiao was a little depressed for a while, but he still understood in the end. Since Tongchen Zhenren said so, Ning Yuan is not a person who jokes with his life, he must have some way to return to his previous state, but she is worried.
The set departure date was ten days later, so in these ten days, Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan were both behind closed doors preparing to go down the mountain.
On the tenth day, in the pear tree cave mansion of Guan Qingfeng, two opposite doors sounded at the same time.
"Senior Brother Ning, what a coincidence."
"Congratulations, junior sister."
The two of them spoke at the same time, and then they were both stunned, and then they laughed again.
"Thanks to my brother." Yan Xiao smiled lightly, feeling his cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, and it was definitely impossible to say that he was not grateful to Ning Yuan.
If it weren't for Ning Yuan giving her the life-saving Taiyi True Yuan Pill, she was afraid that her cultivation would have been wasted.
Ning Yuan did not back down and accepted Yan Xiao's thanks. It was precisely because of this gratitude that he felt even more guilty about Mu Lin.
The two of them went out of the cave together, each sacrificed a flying magic weapon, and flew in the direction of the mountain. They all stopped at the top of the Taichu Peak.
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both let out a sigh, and then slowly fell on the Taichu Peak.
"Yan Xiao?"
Yan Chuhan had just come out of Mu Lin's cave with a medicine bowl this time, and he saw Yan Xiao walking towards this side, followed by a person, who must have said that Ning Yuan, who would go down the mountain with her.
"I'll come and see Uncle Mu."
Yan Xiao looked at the medicine bowl in Yan Chuhan's hand, and a trace of sourness passed through her heart. Then, she provoked a smile and looked at Yan Chuhan.
Yan Chuhan smiled and stepped out of the way, "He just drank the medicine, he should be awake at this time, you guys go in." After that, she shook the empty bowl in her hand at Yan Xiao, "I'll go get a few more doses of medicine for my senior brother first." ”
Yan Xiao nodded, and after watching Yan Chuhan walk away, he glanced at Ning Yuan and pushed open the door in front of him.
The light in the cave was not dim, allowing Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan to clearly see the person lying on the bed. Because he had been lying on the bed for too long, his face was very pale, and his eyes were open, but even so, Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan did not make him have the slightest fluctuation when they entered the door.
"Uncle Mu." Yan Xiao walked slowly to the side of the bed and called Mu Lin.
"It's you." Although the meridians were completely destroyed and his cultivation was no longer there, Mu Lin's mind was still very clear. When he saw Yan Xiao and the two, a smile appeared on his face.
"I heard Chu Han say that you were going down the mountain, and I thought you were gone." Mu Lin chewed a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was calm.
"Naturally, I want to see you before leaving." Ning Yuan didn't make a sound as soon as he came in, but at this time he said a word lightly.
Mu Lin chuckled when he heard this, was silent for a moment, and then smiled again: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just that I haven't cultivated, when I can move, I will find another way out for myself." I'm not going to die here, and you'd rather not think of me like that. ”
Ning Yuan snorted lightly and did not answer. Yan Xiao saw that although Mu Lin described him as old, he still had the heart that jumped out of the past, and he felt a little relieved in his heart.
"Uncle Mu, the treasure we went down the mountain to find this time may be able to restore your cultivation, you ...... Peace of mind waiting for us to come back. ”
Mu Lin heard that the two were going down the mountain before, but he said that the two of them had an urgent matter, so they had to choose to go down the mountain at this time. But he never thought that these two people were going to find medicine for him.
He was stunned for a moment, a little brilliance appeared on his old face, he glanced in the direction of the two of them in disbelief, and muttered: "Uncle Xiyan and Uncle Yang and Uncle have been thinking for a long time, but there is no way to make me recover, you two are really ......"
"Seriously." Yan Xiao's tone was firm, "As long as that thing exists in this world for a day, I will find it." It's up to you to hold on to it when we get back. ”
Mu Lin was obviously a little surprised by the news revealed by Yan Xiao, and was a little stunned for a while.
"Don't be a coward." Ning Yuan spoke out again at the right time and woke up Mu Lin, who was stunned.
Mu Lin nodded in a daze, it was rare that he didn't argue with Ning Yuan.
Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan's purpose this time had been achieved, and after the two glanced at each other, they got up together, "It's not too early, it's time for us to leave." ”
Mu Lin came back to his senses at this time, his somewhat cloudy eyes, with a clear gaze, looked straight at the two of them: "Be careful on the road, I'll wait for you to come back." ”
The two of them bowed, then turned around, step by step, from Mu Lin's bed to the door, and finally slowly pushed the door out.
"Yan Xiao."
Yan Xiao had just stepped out of Mu Lin's cave, and a soft cry sounded beside her, but in the blink of an eye, she was tightly hugged by a person.
"It must not be easy to go here, be careful, I'll wait for you to come back."
The person who hugged her, isn't it Yan Chuhan who hasn't been close to her for a long time? When Yan Xiao heard this, he patted her back with a smile, "Don't worry, I didn't die this time, which means that I am blessed with a great life, and I will definitely be able to come back with Lang Jibing safely to save your Senior Brother Mu." ”
Yan Chuhan nodded fiercely, but he still didn't want to let go, and still hugged her tightly. At this moment, she seemed to have changed back into the little female cultivator who gave Yan Xiao a bear hug at every turn.
After a long time, Yan Chuhan let go of Yan Xiao, and the faces of the two of them had returned to their normal demeanor, and the shallow smile contained a thousand words.
"Be careful all the way."
After the two glanced at each other, Yan Xiao took out her glass bottle first, and pulled Ning Yuan to jump up. In an instant, he disappeared in front of Yan Chuhan and hurried straight in the direction of going down the mountain.
In the end, it was two people who walked together, so in the end, it was decided that the two of them would take turns to use the flying magic weapon, so that there would always be one person who was in the best state and more convenient to deal with in case of danger.
Although Ning Yuan's injuries were already healed, he still needed more time to recuperate, so at the beginning, Yan Xiaoben took the obligation to fly.
Fortunately, the flying magic weapons do not require the monk to bother too much, as long as the direction is chosen, and some aura is consumed, it can be controlled at will.
Now, the glass bottle took the two of them and flew all the way north.
According to the map left by Silver Flame, the direction where Lang Ji Ice is located is naturally the extreme north of the Tianyuan Continent. And according to the exact location on the map, it is in the deepest part of the Far North, and if you go further north, you will be out of the boundary of the Tianyuan Continent.
And the orientation of Langji Ice is actually a bit special. This followed the north side of the Yaoguang Sect all the way, and the place it went to was actually the northeast of the Tianyuan Continent.
In the northern part of the Tianyuan Continent, there is a glacial ocean, and no other continents have been found.
The eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent is an island. Although the island was small, the monks who had been there were amazed by it, and it was said that it was an island with very rich cultivation resources and an unusually scarce number of monks.
The name of that island is Middle-earth.
It is said that the island was not called Nakasu in the past, but was given its name by monks from the surrounding continents after discovering the island.
Legend has it that there are not many indigenous people on the island, and that many of today's monks have immigrated from several surrounding continents.
Besides, the origin of Zhongzhou is indeed worthy of the word "China".
Zhongzhou Island is separated from the sea in the west, and the Tianyuan Continent is far away, the Phantom Sea is separated from the South and the Chitang Continent across the sea, and the west is separated by a small Yuanzhou Strait, which is adjacent to the Dongyuan Continent.
The northern part is similar to the Tengaki continent and is a glacial ocean.
And the location of the Langji Ice that Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan were looking for was in the northeasternmost part of the Tianyuan Continent, facing the Wanghai Sea, which was the closest place to the entire Tianyuan Continent and Zhongzhou Island.
On this way to the north, there is no distribution of the major sects of the Tianyuan Continent, so Yan Xiao and the others also happened to avoid the large troops coming from the direction of Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen, and from the north, they went out of Jingchang Mountain.
Because Yan Xiao and the others left the mountain this time, it was not for training, but to find Lang Ji Bing. The goal is clear, and the speed along the way is not slow. In just half a month, the two walked half the way.
Along the way, the two got along very harmoniously, either standing on the bottle and looking into the distance, or meditating and cultivating without interfering with each other. The occasional conversation is just a perception of cultivation.
Ning Yuan was standing on top of the glass bottle at this time, looking at the scenery in front of him, when he suddenly heard movement behind him, and knew that Yan Xiao had finished cultivating, so he said: "In front is Qulan City, let's rest there today." ”
Yan Xiao glanced at Ning Yuan with some puzzlement. She has just reached the middle stage of foundation building, her spirit is very good, and her aura is very sufficient, although she has been flying for half a month, she does not feel unbearable.
Before, the two of them didn't say that they would stop and rest halfway, but now Ning Yuan suddenly made this request.
"Let's go on the road tomorrow and take my flying boat." Ning Yuan glanced at Yan Xiao, and when he saw that she was puzzled, he spoke lightly, and then looked into the distance.
"You ......" Yan Xiao was about to ask him if he could stand it, so he heard Ning Yuan say: "My healing has entered a critical juncture, and there is an ice cave in Qulan City, which is extremely beneficial to my healing. ”
Is this explaining to her? Yan Xiao raised her eyebrows, and after learning Ning Yuan's intentions, she asked, "Even so, we don't have to leave in a hurry, wouldn't it be better to stay a few more days." ”
Since it was beneficial to Ning Yuan's healing, Yan Xiao felt that it would be better to stay in Qulan City for a few more days to heal Ning Yuan's injuries and then go on their way.
Ning Yuan shook his head and said, "It's okay, although some things are good, they need to be done in moderation." ”
As soon as Yan Xiao heard this, he knew that there must be something special about it, so he also nodded and stopped messing around.
Imperial weapons are not allowed to fly in the city, so Yan Xiao had to let the glass bottle stop at the city gate.
Not long after, the two of them landed at the gate of Qulan City.
"Where's that ice cave you're talking about?" After entering Qulan City, Yan Xiao asked Ning Yuan beside him with some curiosity.
Ning Yuan just smiled and didn't answer, but walked into a nearby teahouse with Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows, but understood that Ning Yuan had his own opinions, so he didn't ask too much, followed him, and walked into the teahouse.
When he sat down, Yan Xiao suddenly heard Ning Yuan's voice again.
"It's still early, and that place is ...... Need to go at night. ”
At night? Yan Xiao looked at the sky, it was only noon at this time, the sun was just heading, if they needed to get dark to go, wouldn't they want to sit in this teahouse for three or four hours?
Although there were doubts in his heart, the teahouse was full of people, and Yan Xiao didn't say much, just took a small sip of the tea in his hand.
Qulan City is a relatively large city in the northern part of the Tianyuan Continent, and many monks will use this place as a foothold, or a supply station, to add some pills or treasures here.
And Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan had just gone north from the Yaoguang Sect, and they had taken a lot of pills and magic weapons given to them by Tongchen Zhenren, Sujian Zhenren and Qingyuan Daojun, and there was nothing to add.
Although this place is already the northernmost area of the Tianyuan Continent, it is not enough to reach the extreme north, and Lang Ji Bing will not appear here, so Yan Xiao and the others are not too interested in the city's trading market.
Neither supplies, but also the place to rest is to go to the ice cave that Ning Yuan said, and the two of them can only sit in the teahouse to pass the time for a while. (To be continued.) )
