"Twenty-eight years ago, I was ordered by my master to go down the mountain to practice. At that time, the Tianhuo Sect had just gained a foothold in the rivers and lakes, and its form and style were arrogant and ruthless. At first, I just thought that their methods were too vicious, but I didn't expect that later they became more and more excessive, and treated human life like a grass. I couldn't help but take action, except for the few rudders they did the most evil, I didn't expect to finally alarm the holy daughter 'Fire Lotus' in their sect.

When I first met her, I didn't know her identity, and I was not deeply involved in the world at the time, and I wanted to be friends with her, but I didn't expect to be used by her, and I almost lost my life.

Fire Lotus returned to the Heavenly Fire Sect to recuperate from her injuries, and there were many people in the Heavenly Fire Sect, and seeing that she was injured, the people of the Heavenly Fire Sect went completely crazy and began to slaughter innocent people. In the end, by the order of several seniors who were highly respected at that time, the disciples of all the sects gathered together, led by Nangong Yao, the heir of the Nangong family, to eradicate this bane in one fell swoop.

I was too seriously injured at that time, and thanks to the joint efforts of Master, Shen Daochang, Feng Ping, and Nangong Ming, I was able to heal me, and I was able to catch up with that final battle.

That battle was too cruel and involved too many people, whether it was a decent person or an evil person, their blood melted together and gathered into a river. There are too many people who have died, and even if they are lucky enough not to die, they are either seriously injured or disabled, and there are only a few who can escape with their whole body like me.

Later, the Heavenly Fire Sect disappeared, and most of us chose to live in seclusion. Speaking of which, what happened back then, after all, was caused by my momentary vigor, and if Huolian's injury was healed, it was most likely to come to me for revenge. That's why Daochang Shen came in such a hurry, he knew that I was not walking around the rivers and lakes, and the news was not clear, and he was afraid that I would be assassinated.

The rivers and lakes are not calm now, you go out this time, you must be more careful, listen to and watch everything more, and remember the sentence 'Illness enters from the mouth, and disaster comes from the mouth' must beware of the disaster of assassination.

Also, when you meet someone from the Heavenly Fire Sect, you must not easily reveal your identity, but fortunately, these martial arts paths I taught you have been pondered by myself in recent years, and ordinary people can't see your teacher.

If you meet someone from the Snow Mountain Sect, you can help appropriately, but don't mention me. Your ancestor has passed away, and I am not the same as the current leader, and she may not remember me.

Okay, that's all there is to explain, in a word, the rivers and lakes are sinister, be more careful, remember? ”

"Well, I remember, Master" Qingxue felt that what Master said also made sense, this is a game after all, Yue Honglou spent so much effort to get the equipment, and he also said that he wanted to help her, and it is not a way to be here all the time, just go, it's a big deal to come back to see Master more when I have time in the future.

"Okay, clean up, let's go down the mountain with Shen Daochang later, you can see more with Shen Daochang first, or you can go the way you want to go, as long as you are happy, if you are not happy outside, come back"

"Okay, Cher knows, Cher will come back to see you when she is free"

"Okay, the sword that Master gave you, although it is not a peerless divine weapon, it is much better than other ordinary things that can be bought, and you must always carry it with you for self-defense. And that silver chain, don't leave it, you also have those medical books with you, usually take a look at it" Bai Bingbing said this, took out a brocade bag from his sleeve, and handed it to Qingxue, "This is a coil, take it, it's cold here all the year round, all I prepare for you are winter clothes, and you can buy a few more clothes yourself when you go out"

Qingxue held the heavy brocade bag, tears began to flow again, she knew that she couldn't hesitate anymore, she couldn't leave if she hesitated, so she quickly cleaned up briefly, sorted out a small baggage, and followed Bai Bingbing back to the room where Shen Dao was long.

It was almost noon, Qingxue prepared a meal, and after a simple meal, Bai Bingbing gave Qingxue a small burden. There are some bottles and cans inside, and there are labels, all of which are some drugs that Bai Bingbing usually refines, and various effects are written on the labels on the bottles.

"Dao Chief, let Xue'er go down the mountain with you, it just so happens that Dao Chang can take her for a ride, I am also relieved, and I ask Dao Chang to take care of Xue'er more"

"That's for sure, fairy, you can rest assured"

"Then there is Chief Laodao, thank you!"

"The fairy is polite, it's not too early, let's leave for the mountain quickly,"

"Okay, I won't stay longer, Xue'er, remember Master's words, be obedient, and learn more from the Taoist"

"Master, Xue'er remembers, don't worry! Master, you must take care! ”

"Okay, master knows, let's go! Dao Chief, take care of yourself! ”

"Okay, fairy, take care too, goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

In the snow town two hundred miles away from the Ice Lotus Peak, there is the only inn called Yunlai, the inn is opened in this kind of remote place, of course, it can't be as polite as its name, usually come to some peddlers and pawns from the south to the north, reselling some specialties from all over the world.

When it was nearly evening, two special people came, an elderly Taoist and a young girl. Lao Dao has white hair and silver beard, fairy wind bones, and a gray Taoist robe, which is a little thin in this cold place, but Lao Dao looks full of red light, without a little shrinkage; The girl's whole body was shrouded in a white mink cloak, her face was beautiful and holy, her temperament was not good, her face was indifferent, she did not have the vigor that a young man should have, and her body also exuded a compelling cold, except for the Taoist chief who was with her, no one dared to approach.

"Miss Mo, let's rest here today and hurry tomorrow, okay?" Looking at the store, Lao Dao opened his mouth to discuss with the girl beside him.

"It's good for the Taoist to call the junior's name, the junior is new to the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't understand anything, everything is arranged by the Taoist, and the Taoist chief decides" The girl's voice was crisp and her expression replied humbly.

"Okay, little second brother, I want two upper rooms, and then get some food to send to the room"

"Howler! Two of you, please come with me" The shopkeeper politely led the two of them upstairs and opened the two rooms opposite each other, "Please two of you, I'll go get some hot water, let the two of you wash up first, the meal will arrive soon, excuse me, do you have any other instructions?" ”

"No, you go down first" Lao Dao commanded, the girl didn't speak the rest of the time except for a few words with Lao Dao, her face was cold, and the shopkeeper never dared to look up at her.

Of course, these two people are Shen Qing Lao Dao and Mo Qingxue, who have just come down the mountain, the shopkeeper quickly sent hot water and food, Qingxue finished the meal and came to Shen Qing's room, wanting to ask Shen Qing about his next plans, and he had to make plans early.

Shen Qing saw that it was Mo Qingxue, so he politely invited her to take a seat. Qingxue has always been unable to understand, since the master is Shen Qing's junior, why Shen Qing has always been so polite to the master? Now that I am so polite to myself, it should be for the sake of the master's face, I don't know if there is any reason for this.

"The junior came here this time to ask the elder what he plans to do next."

"Well, have you ever heard of 'Four Seasons Village'" Shen Daochang was not surprised by Qingxue's question at all, and turned to ask another question.

"No" Qingxue thought for a moment, and really hadn't heard of it.

"Four Seasons Village refers to the four villages of Peach Blossom Village, Lotus Village, Osmanthus Village, and Plum Blossom Village. The four villages correspond to the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each village has its own strengths, but it is easy for the people in the village to not see outsiders, and whoever is lucky enough to enter one of them will also benefit greatly. I'm going to visit some old friends, and if you're all right, you might as well come with me, I think you'll be of help. ”

"Thank you for your advice, the junior went back first."

"Okay, let's go!"

The so-called Four Seasons Village, originally not together, but in the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest, was also affected in the melee between good and evil twenty years ago, and the village was devastated. In the end, the survivors of the Four Seasons Village decided to live in seclusion together, and they used the formation to hide the place where the village was located. However, with Shen Qing, an old man who is familiar with the way and understands the Qimen formation, it is another matter.

After Shen Qing and Qingxue went down the mountain, he walked all the way south for seven or eight days, then went west for three or five days, and then walked south for two days, there was a mountain range in front of him, and after going deep into the mountain, Qingxue couldn't tell the direction at all, only knew that he had been going around the mountain left and right for a long time, and finally saw a tall pine forest.

This pine forest is very large, the fog inside is very thick, and the footsteps of Qingxue follow Shen Daochang closely, for fear that he will be scattered if he is one step short. In the dense fog, I walked back and forth for a while, and what entered in front of me was no longer a pine tree, but a plum blossom began to come into view. Qingxue didn't know how the plum blossoms, which only bloomed in the cold winter, bloomed here, but she also guessed that it might be to Plum Blossom Village.

The plum blossom forest is very deep and large, according to what Shen Daochang said, just now in the pine forest is just some of the simplest formations, according to the maze of Dilibu. Now this plum blossom forest is the most important protective barrier, with the most profound formation, where all kinds of formations are interlocking, and the time and place are advantageous. If someone breaks in and alarms the people inside, when the time comes, the time, the place, the people and the three-way integration will be seamless.

Shen Daochang didn't say more, even these, Qingxue is the same as listening to the book of heaven, she has never dabbled in these, what is the time, place, and people, and she can't figure it out, her understanding of the formation is still stopped at the mythological drama performed on TV, she has always believed in these things, and now it seems that it may be that the TV is too deified, but it has not deduced the subtlety in it.

In the plum blossom forest or front or back, left and right, turn around, there is no road in the forest at all, although the gap between the trees is very large, but there are many other flowers and plants in the forest, some of them are still poisonous, Qingxue is afraid that there are poisons in it, so the two walk very slowly.

Because she walked slowly, Qingxue was able to identify them carefully, and found that there were many flowers and plants among them, which were herbs that had been seen in medical books, and some herbs were recorded as difficult to find, so Qingxue couldn't help but pick some. In this way, the speed of moving forward was even slower, and Shen Daochang also let her.

Although she only picked some uncommon ones, Qingxue couldn't take them in her hands, and some couldn't be put together, so Qingxue had to temporarily replace the medicine basket with the two cloaks she carried, plus the original burden, she insisted on refusing to let Shen Daochang help her, and her actions were even slower, and in the end she could only spend the night in the plum blossom forest.

The plum forest at night is very cold, and the fragrance of plum blossoms is also stronger, and the smell is refreshing. Shen Daochang and Qingxue each found a thick plum tree with a forked trunk to rest. Qingxue couldn't sleep, and she didn't dare to move around without permission, so she looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and the moon she saw here was different from the Ice Lotus Peak. Ice Lotus Peak snows from time to time all year round, and sometimes there is a moon in the snowy night, hazy, knowing that it is untouchable, but still feels so close, like silent comfort; The moon here is far away and cold, looking coldly at this vast number of beings, jumping out of the world.

Qingxue thinks that it is better to be a person like the moon here, a little more free and easy, but she still thinks that the moon of Ice Lotus Peak is more humane and emotional.
