One hundred and ninety-seven on the road [three watches]

Glutinous rice rolled up his sleeves and took a simple utensil to cook on the side. When she was wandering outside, although she couldn't cook, she learned to cook simple things like barbecue. Later, they followed Dong Tianying to practice at the bottom of the mountain, and they also learned some skills to make fire.

She has now learned how to use spells to make fire, and even in order to exercise her proficiency in spells, she uses the technique of palm fire to use it on cooking, and she is simply using the small iron pot used to cook rice as if it were a Dan furnace.

Xiao Jingyan was still a little crying and laughing when he first saw her operate like this, and he was also a little surprised that Nuomi had already mastered such immortal skills. Among the monks Xiao Jingyan knew, if they hadn't practiced for several years, they had reached the advanced level of the Enlightenment Period, and they couldn't control the power of the spiritual fire so smoothly. It wasn't until he saw Nuomi using such a little skill to cook that he knew why Nuomi was so young and could successfully open a furnace for alchemy.

It's really amazing that he has a talent for spells.

However, the technique of glutinous rice is not completely so proficient, and occasionally the charcoal will be burned because the fire cannot be controlled, or the fire power is not enough, so the hard rice is made with sandwich. This time, the glutinous rice accidentally burned the rice in the pot into a ball of charcoal, so I could only pout unhappily and work again next to it.

Xiao Jingyan wanted to help, but he couldn't break glutinous rice, so he simply obediently roasted meat on the side and ate it.

The area where they are walking outside now is not exactly the mountain range of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, but similar to the place where the Ten Thousand Swords Sect set up the ring when they fought with the Tiesheng Sect before, sandwiched between the territory of the mortals of the world and those areas shrouded in immortal mist, and it is very unclear to distinguish the boundary.

This kind of place is often intruded into by secular warriors, and the two of them have met once and shown each other the way back.

There are not many forests with aura, some large and some small, and some are even close to secular towns, and it is common to see people coming from outside to cut down trees. After all, these forests were guarded by the immortal mist condensed by the aura, and they still looked more alive than the arid places outside. Some wandering people in the world occasionally see such a fairyland, and they feel that this is really a fairyland where they can live.

It's just that in these forests, most of them live in some low-level demon beasts, which are not a threat to Xiao Jingyan and Nuomi, but they can easily take the lives of those secular warriors. Along the way, the two of them would also see white bones on the ground, shallow buried under the grass.

Their target this time was a town called Xianyi City at the northern end of the Tianwu Kingdom.

There were no secular people in that town at all, it was a city of complete immortal cultivation, and it was also the closest immortal cultivation town to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. As long as you can enter that city, you will be able to access many resources related to immortal cultivation.

Nuomi had never heard the name of Xianyi City, and the qiē about Xianyi City was all told by Xiao Jingyan on the road.

It is said that Xianyi City was originally just an ordinary city, but I don't know when it started, where a few immortal cultivation families lived, and gradually developed. Most of the descendants of those families are cultivators with spiritual roots, and they are particularly good at trading, attracting many casual cultivators to the Xianyi City, and after hundreds of years, it has finally become a fairy city that is completely controlled by cultivators.

Even a secular mortal who has no spiritual roots, as long as he can blend into the Immortal Yi City, it is said that he has a way to become an immortal. Of course, this is just an unfounded legend. But as long as it is a monk who can enter Xianyi City, he no longer has to worry about not being able to find cultivation resources. Even if you are lucky, you can use Xianyi City as a springboard to join the major immortal cultivation sects and families.

Xiao Jingyan has long been dead set on the Immortal Cultivation Sect, but if he wants to be a casual and idle, he still needs some help from the outside world after all, not that as long as he just finds a cave to hide and cultivate. Even if it is a casual cultivation, you need to change the spirit stone in your hand for pills and exercises, otherwise you will really hide in the deep mountains and old forests, where can you cultivate the avenue.

Moreover, if Nuomi really wanted to find the pillar, Xiao Jingyan felt that the clue would probably be in Xianyi City.

Neither of them knew the whereabouts of Qingming Zhenren, and for the sake of safety, they also stayed under the mountain gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for a few days, and Xiao Jingyan was responsible for going outside to quietly inquire about the situation.

It was not easy to inquire about the situation outside. After all, there are no villages near the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. In order not to arouse the suspicion of Tieshengmen, they could not camp at the foot of Qingquan Peak, so they could only live in a secular village far away, and then let Xiao Jingyan go outside to inquire about the situation.

The people who live in the village are naturally secular people, even if Nuomi is alone, she doesn't use immortal arts, just using her rattan whip is enough to run rampant and domineering in the village, Xiao Jingyan is not afraid that Nuomi will be bullied in the village alone.

Naturally, they don't have any silver in their hands, even if they have gold and silver, and they are really useless in such troubled times. Glutinous rice simply took out some of the low-level Linggu and handed it over to the borrowed family as food, making it convenient for the family, which made Xiao Jingyan feel distressed, pulling the glutinous rice in the back, and said: "If these Linggu are eaten by us, they can reduce the turbid qi in the body and improve their cultivation." But even if you give it to those mortals, it's just to make them stronger, and it doesn't have any cultivation effect, let alone give them these things. ”

Glutinous rice doesn't mind much. But she couldn't tell Xiao Jingyan that there was an ethereal illusion in her body, which could grow Linggu infinitely, and she could only vaguely say that there were still many Linggu hidden in her storage bag, so Xiao Jingyan should not worry. Hengzhu This is already outside the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion, and Xiao Jingyan doesn't know how many Spirit Valleys she was assigned to and how many she was exchanged, so Xiao Jingyan didn't speak while feeling distressed.

Xiao Jingyan only knew that there was a storage bag on the glutinous rice, which contained Linggu, and the glutinous rice naturally wouldn't let Xiao Jingyan know what was in the storage bag. Like Mu Kui and Lu Leopard, she didn't dare to take them out casually. It's not that I don't believe Xiao Jingyan, but I still think it's a little inconvenient.

The relationship between the two of them is a little delicate, it is said that it is affectionate, and it is indeed very close, but it is also necessary to say that it can really dig out the heart and lungs, but I always feel that there is still something missing. Nuomi just wants to confess all her secrets, and Xiao Jingyan may not be willing to listen to it.

After all, if you listen to the other party's secret, you have to bear the obligation to keep it secret, as if you are undergoing a test. Even hesitate whether it will kill people and sell goods, it is better not to test the relationship between the two with such interests.

Rather, it was more difficult to find a monk to interrogate in such a chaotic situation.

All the monks above the Ten Thousand Swords Sect have escaped, and the rest have naturally defected to the camp of the Tiesheng Sect, which is definitely not something that Xiao Jingyan can touch. Xiao Jingyan squatted outside for a long time, and finally met a few monks who were also waiting for news outside. Only one of those monks came down from Qingquan Peak, and he couldn't tell where Qingming Zhenren went. Xiao Jingyan used a few spirit stones to bribe, and the monk swore that Qingming Zhenren definitely did not get involved with Tieshengmen, although he didn't know the whereabouts of Qingming Zhenren, but he saw Qingming Zhenren and Tian Tian driving the fairy sword to leave first.

"It is indeed unlikely that the peak master of Qingquan Peak is with Tieshengmen." Xiao Jingyan analyzed Nuomi, "Looking at the situation on Qingquan Peak, the peak master completely packed up and left on his own. Seeing such a situation, it doesn't look like it's mixed up with the Tieshengmen. There's no need for him to mess around with Tieshengmen. As a junior alchemist, he can join a major sect outside, and it is better than succumbing to the Tiesheng Sect. If that's the case, the only possible place to go is Xianyi City. ”

Nuomi blinked and listened to Xiao Jingyan's analysis, only then did she know that there was such a wonderful place as Xianyi City, and she couldn't help but sigh.

They changed some dry food and a change of clothes in the borrowed village, and when they were ready, they began their journey.

Xiao Jingyan was originally thinking of being a loose cultivator, and he had already inquired about the location of Xianyi City, and this time he was leading the way in front of him, and he had traveled all the way between secular villages and towns and immortal mountains and forests. None of them had yet reached the cultivation level of being able to fly with the sword, so they could only follow the road all the way towards the northern end of the Heavenly Martial Kingdom.

Xiao Jingyan once inadvertently asked about Mu Kui, Nuomi hesitated, and could only talk to Xiao Jingyan again, saying that Mu Kui was not her Mu Ling. Xiao Jingyan remembered that Nuomi had said the same thing at the beginning, nodded, and stopped asking.

Nuomi herself actually often stroked the embroidery with her hand, and always wondered if Mu Kui would suddenly appear in front of her and bring her a few words of Ye Fan's words, but the more she expected this, the more disappointed she was.

Ye Fan hadn't sent any more messages to her since the day the Ten Thousand Swords Sect fell, nor had he summoned Mu Kui back. With the current cultivation of glutinous rice, when I occasionally touch the embroidery, I can always feel the storage of Mu Kui. It's just that he couldn't get her summons, and Mu Kui just hid by her side all the way and didn't take the initiative to appear.

Nuomi was actually a little conflicted in her heart, she wanted to summon Mu Kui out to ask Ye Fan about the situation, but she was also reluctant to let Ye Fan know that she and Xiao Jingyan walked all the way towards Xianyi City. She herself couldn't explain what kind of contradictory mood this was, but she instinctively felt that Senior Brother probably wouldn't want to see her go to a place like Xianyi City.

She struggled for a long time, wanting to change the clothes and throw them away, but she was reluctant after all. Even she herself couldn't tell whether she was reluctant to Ye Fan, or Mu Kui, or both.

Or, she just hoped that the senior brother would think about her and appear in front of her. (To be continued.)
