After walking for nearly three hours from Yanming Town, even Ye Fan, who had good physical strength, felt a little tired, looked around, and saw a pile of stones with little snow on the side of the road, Ye Fan stepped forward, swept the snow on the stones with his hands, and sat down slowly.

Ye Fan took out the map and silently thought about the journey and time to the Great Yan Dynasty.

The Red Leaf Kingdom is located in the south of Zilai Prefecture, bordering the Three Kingdoms, and the Great Yan Dynasty is in the north, with a straight-line distance of tens of thousands of miles. The route of Baoyi Country is the farthest, and the road is long and obstructive, which is the next step, and Ye Fan will not consider it. The route of the Yutang Kingdom is stable, there are official roads everywhere, and the relationship between the two countries is good, as long as there is a customs clearance document, there will be no more inquiries. Ye Fan also heard that there is an immortal cloud boat in the capital of Yutang that can only be built in the dynasty, and it is not difficult to travel thousands of miles a day, but it costs a lot of money to sit once. Although Ye Fan had some immortal coins given by Zhao Qing, he was really reluctant to spend so much just because he was in a hurry.

The final route is the one in the country of pure water.

The Pure Water Country is located in the most central part of Ziyun Prefecture, and it is the most difficult to live by the enemy on its belly and back. Wars continued, and the country was often disturbed, and if it weren't for the great talent of the current emperor, who was well dressed and fed, and vigorously recruited monks to develop the military force, it is estimated that one-third of the territory would have to be handed away.

Moreover, on the route from Momiji Country to Pure Water Country, there are few official roads, and most of them are difficult mountain roads or muddy paths. There is also a dense forest in the place where the two countries meet, and there has been a vision recently, as if an opportunity has come. Many monks went to fight, and the situation was chaotic.

But the journey of the Pure Water Country is the shortest, Ye Fan has thought about it, even if there is something to delay and bypass the dense forest, how can it take three months. If you go to Yutang and don't take the Xianjia Yunzhou, it will take four months at the earliest. Ye Fan thought about it silently, but decided to take the route of the Pure Water Country.

They have already made up their minds to cultivate the Tao and learn the sword, if they are timid to avoid these unknown difficulties ahead, then it is better to learn the sword of a fart and go to Yanming Town to continue to work and make money to build a house?

Ye Fan put away the map and no longer hesitated. Feeling that it was good to rest, he got up and patted the snow on his clothes and continued on his way.

After walking for about two hours, Ye Fan looked up, looked at the outline of the house in the distance, and knew that he couldn't continue to follow the official road.

The county seat to which Yanming Town belongs is called Longquan County, which is the more prosperous county seat among the 23 counties of the Red Leaf Country. Legend has it that three hundred years ago, Longquan County produced a great sword immortal who had achieved great cultivation, and when the Red Leaf Country was in danger, he repeatedly came out to help with his sword, and the first emperor recited his merits, built temples all over the country, and enjoyed the incense of all people. There is the largest one in Longquan County, and the number of people who burn incense and worship is innumerable, and it is smoky all year round. When the country of Red Leaves was peaceful and peaceful, this great sword immortal retired with his sword and went to Xiqingwu Prefecture to assist Jianzun Chuzhong in guarding the trapped Longjing together. Over the past hundred years, people's admiration for this great sword immortal has not weakened at all, and the great deeds of the year Longquan County people have come to each other, such as a number of treasures, making this great sword immortal even more famous, and the limelight is incomparable.

When Ye Fan was young, he went to the Sword Immortal Temple with his parents once, and the six-zhang golden statue of a middle-aged man holding a long sword stood in the middle of it, and was worshiped by all the people. Ye Fan only felt that this golden body was so tall and big, but the smell of incense was too pungent, so he didn't want to stay longer, so he pulled his parents and hurried away.

failed to burn incense for this great sword immortal, Ye Fan also regretted it. It's just that if you go to the county town just to burn an incense, you have to turn back, and you have to delay for several more days, so you can only give up.

"If you succeed in learning swords, you must come back and burn incense for the big sword immortal, and you have fulfilled this wish. ”

Ye Fan stepped into the path on the left and walked with firm strides.

———————————————————————

When Ye Fan was in a hurry, the green-shirted Taoist who was talking in the clouds turned into an ordinary middle-aged man and landed in Ruyi Lane. When pacing to the second house on the street, I wanted to knock on the door, but I hesitated for a long time, turned around and left, and I was unwilling, and I hesitated to step forward again, so I repeated it three times. Just when the man in the green shirt mustered up the courage to make up his mind to go and knock on the door, Mr. Wen pushed the door out, rubbed his brows and said helplessly: "If you want to enter, you can enter, if you want to go, what does it look like to go back and forth in front of my house? ”

The man hurriedly saluted: "I have seen Mr. Wen, I do have something to discuss, but I am afraid of disturbing Mr. Jingjing, so I am uncertain, and I ask Mr. for forgiveness." ”

Mr. Wen turned around and walked into the courtyard, unhurried, "Since you have something to discuss, then come in and talk, remember to close the door." ”

The Taoist hurried forward, and when he entered the courtyard, he turned around and carefully closed the courtyard door, lest he make a little noise and make the people in front of him unhappy.

Mr. Wen turned around, looked at the appearance of the man, and shook his head, "Dignified Heavenly Monarch, I am not afraid of making others laugh at me if I am so low." ”

The Taoist was full of courtesy, and said with a smile: "Compared with Mr. Wen, the identity of the Heavenly Monarch is no different from that woodcutter in the mortal world, how dare you put on a score." ”

Mr. Wen walked into the courtyard, made two cups of tea, and said: "There is no good tea, but the farmhouse tea in the county town is not comparable to the one on the mountain, so don't dislike it." ”

The Taoist hurriedly stepped forward, sat down with Mr. Wen, picked up the teacup, lowered his head and sniffed, his face full of intoxication. Then he took a sip and praised loudly: "After brewing by the hands of Mr., even the grass leaves on the roadside taste better than the fairy tea on the mountain." ”

Mr. Wen said softly: "Don't put a top hat on me, don't you have something to discuss?" ”

The Taoist hurriedly put down the teacup, and Zhengse said: "Don't hide it, Mr., I have been traveling all over the five states and looking for the world for more than ten years, and the purpose is just to find a successor to the mantle and teach carefully, so that I can inherit the position of the Kunlun Sect Heavenly Monarch in the future." But after looking for so long, the disciple who was in his heart just couldn't find it. I'm really a little disheartened, and I'm going to go back to the sect to have a look. When I went to the town that day, I saw that there were thunderclouds accumulating in the north of the town, and I was curious to go to check, only to find that there was a child at the foot of the mountain, with wonderful talents, and his temperament was very suitable for the way of the Kunlun faction. ”

The Taoist said in a sincere tone and with a humble attitude, "It was only then that I learned that this child had some relationship with Mr. It has been hundreds of years since he stepped into the Ten Realms, and he has long understood that it is more difficult to break into the Eleventh Realm than to ascend to the sky, so he can only pin his hopes on this child. ”

"As long as Mr. promises me to take this child as an apprentice," the Taoist gritted his teeth, as if he had made a major decision with great difficulty, "As long as Mr. agrees, a quarter .....of the income of each load sent by Kunlun in the next hundred years will be given to Mr."

When Mr. Wen heard this, a sip of tea almost squirted out, knowing that he had lost his demeanor, he wiped his mouth and said, "You sent me so much money, what's the use of me coming?"

The Taoist was extremely surprised, and replied: "Ten years ago, I traveled to the cliff of Si, and drank a few cups with the disciple Liu Jian, and when we talked about it, he told me that the master did not love power or beauty in his life, but preferred money. I also wondered how Mr. was not like the money-loving man when he was so high-spirited. It's just that when I saw the way the order was conclusive, I believed it a little. Now it seems that the Lingtu and I are just a joke, sir, don't be angry, this matter is not easy to believe that it is wrong for me, and please don't blame Liu Jian. ”

Mr. Wen looked strange and said, "Who else knows such absurd words except you?"

The Daoist broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to hide it, and said in a trembling voice: "Except for me and the other four Heavenly Monarchs, only the Great Priest of the Temple and some elders of the Ancient Void Imperial Family know about it. Don't be angry, sir, hurt your body, wait for the sect to deal with the matter, I will spare no effort to clarify for Mr. and give Mr. justice!"

Mr. Wen waved his hand, got up and said, "Which child is your eye?"

"It's a student of Mr.'s school, and his surname is Zhao Yongchang. ”

Mr. Wen nodded, "The matter of accepting apprentices has nothing to do with me, and you can be regarded as having this experience in vain." To explain the reason, if the child and the family agree, it will be a good thing to go to Kunlun to practice with you. ”

The Taoist stood up and saluted respectfully, and said gratefully: "Mr. Xie is complete, I will definitely cultivate it carefully and live up to Mr. Xie's high expectations." ”

Mr. Wen began to pack up the teacup and said to the man: "Go back and tell those who know my whereabouts, don't bother me if you have nothing to do, and don't do dirty things that make people unhappy and dirty my eyes." ”

The Taoist knew that this was an eviction order, so he got up and saluted again, "I won't disturb Mr. Purity, and I will definitely bring Mr.'s words." ”

Seeing Mr. Wen nodding, the Taoist walked towards the courtyard door, opened it gently, closed it gently, and then rose in the wind, until he was on the top of the clouds, he breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered: "I told those fools, don't do these flies and dogs, just don't listen, now it's okay, this unhappy person has no good fruit to eat." ”

"But my husband's temper is really much better than before, but I don't know if it's good or bad. ”

The Taoist shook his head, he didn't want to do this, he still wanted to think about how to collect that disciple, so as not to let Mr. Wen blame.
