Chapter 42: Anomaly
For the next period of time, Jian Ning and Jian insisted on going to the top of the mountain to practice for an hour every morning, and then ran all over the mountains to find out where the breakthrough was. Originally, Qin Mo was also with him, but he had a lot of things, and seeing Jian Ning's enthusiasm for this matter, he handed it over to Jian Ning, and he went to work on other things, and occasionally discussed the progress and next step with them when he was free.
Half a month has passed like this, Jian Ning's cultivation has improved a lot, and the barrier to break through is getting thinner and thinner, but the strange reason for the peak of Yiyang Mountain has not been discovered at all. When she got here, Jian Ning was a little frustrated, she was working day and night these days, except for cultivation, she was busy with this matter every day, but she still didn't gain anything at all.
She wondered if it was nothing strange at all, just a mountain that cultivated aura, but last night she suddenly felt that the aura in the mountain slowly became a little richer, although the changes were very subtle, if she hadn't paid attention to these things every day, she wouldn't have noticed it. This change undoubtedly shows that there are indeed things in the mountains that have caused such changes.
She told Qin Mo about this phenomenon, and Qin Mo also paid attention to it, because the aura of this mountain had not changed much in the previous years, and it was like this now. So he speculated that there should be no changes in a short period of time, but as soon as he heard Jian Ning say it, he sensed it for a while, and his face changed dramatically in an instant. They had to do their best to find out what was abnormal, otherwise when the aura became more and more intense, they would not be able to hide it from the monks around them. When the time comes, when it is discovered, they will be the first to bear the brunt, although his identity is not ordinary, but sometimes there are advantages and disadvantages to the noble status, and it may not be necessary to escalate things because of his identity.
In the following days, Qin Mo handed over all the things in his hands to Xuanwu Vermilion Bird White Tiger to do, transferred Qinglong to the villa, and followed to find it.
This is the first time Jian Ning has seen Qinglong since he came to the capital, and he still does not change his style of cold and paralyzed face, and just nods to Jian Ning to say hello. Jian Ning smiled at him disapprovingly, it was a greeting, and several people didn't say much, and soon entered the working state.
This time, because of the change in the aura, they mainly found out where the aura began to fluctuate, and finding out where the emanation was their goal. With the addition of Qinglong, they were relatively relaxed, and soon they found anomalies in four different locations.
After each of them made the mark, they returned to the villa to meet and take out the map for analysis, and coincidentally, the four abnormal places happened to be in the southeast, northwest, southeast and northwest directions under the top of the mountain, and each direction corresponded to one.
They glanced at each other, they should have found the right place, but there are four places, they can only dispatch three people, and they can't go on an expedition alone, not to mention that Jian Ning doesn't agree, even Qin Mo is not very at ease. However, this little guy is bold, in fact, of the four abnormal places today, Jian Ning and the others only found three, and the fourth place was simply found.
Because Jian Ning and the others wanted to speed up to investigate the abnormality of Xunyang Mountain, they didn't go with Jian Jian today, after all, he was only a fifth-order cultivator, and his speed couldn't keep up with Jian Ning and them. A person was left in the villa, simply unhappy and bored, so he ran around on the lawn in the back garden of the villa, and also moved out the delicious food made by Jian Ning before going out and the spiritual fruit in the space from the kitchen. I got tired of running and found that it wasn't fun, so I sat on the grass and ate.
Eating and eating, he found that the contents of the basket were decreasing a little quickly, and when he was puzzled, he suddenly saw a white thing in the grass next to him quickly flash. He looked at the only remaining spirit fruit in the basket that had been bitten to the point of only a small bite, and was decisively angry, this was all his food, it was stolen, and he hadn't eaten enough.
He stood up and chased after him, he must catch the little white-haired fruit thief. So he ran after the white thing, and slowly moved away from the villa, and the white thing with cat-like hair was also out of breath at this time. Although it was so tired that it was not good, it was chased closely, and finally a person and a cat stopped in an open space, all panting and looking at each other.
At this time, it was simple to see the other party clearly, it turned out to be a tanuki, but it was a little different, all the hair on its body was white, without a trace of impurities. At this time, it opened a pair of smart and wet eyes, staring at it with some annoyance and grievance, and after chasing it for so long, it had forgotten the anger at the beginning. At first, he wanted to catch the tanuki and beat him up, but then he chased and chased but never caught up, which stimulated his competitiveness, and now he is happy to catch him, and those anger are gone.
Just thinking that this little civet cat actually stole his own spirit fruit to eat, he glared at it fiercely. Receiving the simple action, the little civet shrank his head, and the grievances in his eyes were clear at a glance, and the whole little one looked so pitiful. Looking at it simply, it's a little soft-hearted and embarrassed, how can I care about a small thing, but it's really not right, my mother said that stealing things is a bad behavior.
"Little thing, it's not right for you to steal." Simply walked forward and squatted not far from the little raccoon.
The little civet cat spared his head with his paws in confusion and looked at him puzzled.
Jian Ning looked at it like this, and didn't know how to explain it to it, so she spared her head with her hand in distress.
When the little tanuki saw him like this, he spared his head with his little paws, and rolled on the ground excitedly.
"Hahaha" was simply amused by its appearance, so one person and one cat danced there for an afternoon. Simple also took some snacks he thought were delicious from the storage bag and gave them to eat, but he didn't expect that the little civet cat was only interested in spirit fruits, and he couldn't taste other foods. Simple was a little disappointed, but soon played with it again, took most of the spirit fruit in the storage bag out for it to eat, and sat on the grass to eat together when a person and a cat were tired of playing, so unhappy.
Time flies, the sky has darkened a little, and he simply wants to go back, he originally wanted to go back with the little raccoon cat, but it didn't want to, and kept biting the simple trouser leg and dragging it back. It took a while for Simple to understand what it meant, that is, to take himself to its home, and simply went with it without much thought.
After walking around for about half an hour, they came to the outside of a small valley, where the aura was stronger than in other places, and they simply discovered it immediately, because when Jian Ning and they discussed things these days, they did not avoid him. Although he didn't know how unusual it was, he felt very comfortable entering here, and he felt a little like being in his mother's space.
Without waiting for him to look closely, the little tanuki squeaked at him, and the little paws were still swinging around, and after a brief look at it, he realized that this was his home, and if he wanted to play with it in the future, he would come here. But because its cultivation is still very low, there is no way to bring people in, otherwise it can still take it in to play. Saying that, it lowered its head a little depressed, smiled briefly, touched its head, and comforted it a few words.
Simply knowing that there must be something strange here, he didn't immediately test it, but planned to remember the location of this place first, and then bring his parents to investigate.
After that, he followed the little civet cat back from the same way, and the little civet cat sent him to the road of the mountain peak and reluctantly went back, and repeatedly signaled to Simple to go to play with it again, but he did not dare to run to Simple House to find him, because he had two particularly powerful people in his family, and he would definitely be caught if he went. He nodded in agreement, waved to it, and headed back down the road.
When Simple arrived home, he happened to meet Jian Ning and they were about to go out to find him, and then he told them all about the little civet cat, and then Qin Mo took Simple to the place where the little civet cat took him to check, and made sure that it was really possible that it was the key to the abnormality of Yiyang Mountain.
