Gu Yan walked on the road alone, and in the burden was the consistent money she had accumulated over the years, and other book friends read it normally:. Over the years, she has been accustomed to the cold eyes of others and the cold of the world. So as she grew older, she didn't dare to show her women's clothes easily, and she was only willing to dress up as men. Although she is no longer afraid of those thieves on the rivers and lakes, in line with the idea that more is better than less, she still has to be cautious.

The short sword at her waist was sharpened from the broken weapon she had picked up back then, and she had used it to kill a disciple who coveted her beauty. The man followed her quietly, intending to be rude. After being discovered by her, after a struggle, she drew her sword and killed him. It was the first time in her life that she had killed someone,:. Maybe it was because she saw a lot of blood when she was a child, but she was very calm and her hands didn't tremble.

Before she traveled, she spent three months practicing a spell called "fire control". This is one of the most superficial spells recorded in the back of the booklet. It is a means for beginner disciples in the Qi refining period to familiarize themselves with the operation of Reiki. Although this is only the most superficial means, it is enough to deal with ordinary people in the rivers and lakes. She still remembers her mother's powerless appearance in front of the person who only has the first or second level of qi refining, this is the gap between immortal cultivators and mortals, like a heavenly moat, although it is short but insurmountable.

Yunyang City is a medium-sized city in the north of the Yue Kingdom, located on the west side of the Tianmu Mountain Range, Tianmu Mountain is known as one of the "Thirty-six Caves in the Sea", there are bound to be many immortal cultivators there. After stepping into the threshold of the immortal cultivation world, she couldn't help but be a little excited, wanting to see what it was like to see what it was like to be a monk who really had great magical powers to build a foundation and even a Dan period.

The place where she is located is in the southeast of the Yue Kingdom, and if you want to go to Yunyang City in the north, you have to walk at least seven or eight hundred miles. The only money she had, and she was reluctant to use it to hire a car, so she had to walk. Although she is an immortal cultivator, she has no magic weapon to her body, and the second level is not high, and she can only walk dozens of miles every day.

Nowadays, the world is not quiet, there are wars everywhere, and displaced people are everywhere. Someone saw her on the road alone as a teenager, and wanted to rob her halfway. They were all shear-cut thieves, and after she had performed a little fire control technique, she ran away in fright. Some even gave all their robbing proceeds, which was regarded as reparation. After a few times, Gu Yan actually accumulated a small amount of money, probably dozens of dollars.

With this money, Gu Yan wanted to find a city, and then find a reliable caravan to follow them all the way, so that it would be safer. Although there is smoke everywhere today, business has not withered because of this, but has become more and more prosperous. Along the way, she saw the most caravans escorted by samurai and sometimes even guarded by the army, walking around. And these caravans are sometimes willing to recruit some armed single travelers to join.

At noon that day, she arrived at a place called Donglai. This is a traffic fortress within a radius of hundreds of miles, extending in all directions, and the most business travelers come and go. She went to the city, found a place to eat, and then went to the market in the east of the city.

Generally, such a big city, there are quite a scale of markets in the outer city, and they are all haunted by all kinds of people.

Gu Yan is now dressed as a teenager, and her stature is originally taller than people of the same age, just like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. Coupled with the short sword at her waist, they all thought she was a swordsman who came out alone to break into the rivers and lakes. In troubled times, there is nothing more respectable than force. So in such a big city, no one provoked her.

When she arrived at the bazaar, she made random inquiries and found that although there were many caravans, they were all heading south, and there was no going north from here. Slightly surprised, she asked the local broker for details.

The broker was a middle-aged man in his forties, very shrewd, and when he heard her question, he smiled and said: "I heard that the Yue Kingdom and the Song Kingdom are fighting again, and the generals on both sides are powerful, and the fight cannot be stopped." It's just that we're suffering, and who would dare to go north, even the caravan that originally went to the north is now hurrying to the south. ”

Gu Yan frowned, although she had no problem dealing with a few thieves, but if she encountered a well-trained soldier, she was not sure that she would be able to deal with it. It's better to find a powerful caravan to accompany you. He asked, "Didn't you go north?" As he spoke, he took out the money from his bosom and put it on the table, "If you can find it, the reward is yours." ”

The broker's eyes lit up a little, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yesterday there was a lady in the city, and I heard that she was going to Yunyang City in the north. It's just that the path to take is very dangerous, the journey is fast, and I found a lot of martial artists in the city, but they are not willing to escort them. Childe might as well go and have a look. ”

Gu Yan smiled slightly, asked for the direction, and looked for it himself. Sure enough, in a clearing in the southeast corner, there was a young man sitting there. Gu Yan stepped forward and asked, "Are you going to Yunyang City?" ”

The young man saw that she was a young man with a sword, his eyes lit up, and he said: "My wife has an urgent matter to go to Yunyang, but there is a war in the north, and the original hired haode warriors are reluctant to go, and they are recruiting here. Is this strong man interested? ”

Gu Yan looked at his thin little body, the title of this "strong man" was really weird. She couldn't help touching her nose and said, "I also want to go to Yunyang to visit friends, it's better to go together, other book friends read normally:!" ”

The young man said happily: "This is the best." If she arrives safely, my wife will be rewarded with ten gold beads. ”

Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, a little surprised. She has experienced many things in the past few years and knows that in such troubled times, gold is very valuable. A hundred dollars may not be exchanged for a tael of gold. Ten gold beads, at least seven or eight taels.

However, she was not immediately moved, she had lived alone in this troubled world for several years, and she had learned to be cautious of anyone first. He asked the young man, "I don't know where Mrs. Zun is from, why do you want to go to Yunyang City?" ”

The young man hesitated a little and said, "My wife is a big family in the Yue Kingdom, and she went to Yunyang City to visit an old friend. ”

Gu Yan sneered, turned around and left. In such a chaotic time, the women of the big family traveled to visit friends. Is this kind of talk used to deceive ghosts?

At this time, a very gentle voice next to him said, "The boy walks slowly." Gu Yan looked back and saw a soft sedan chair living not far away, surrounded by curtains, and there was a figure inside, which he couldn't see clearly. Presumably the lady who recruited people here. It's just that Gu Yan's eyes didn't look at her, but at an old man and a young man standing by the sedan chair.

The old man was dressed in Taoist costumes, about forty or fifty years old, and a few strands of his hair were already gray. The young man was probably only in his twenties, and he was very tall, about a head and a half taller than her. Standing in front of the sedan chair, the old man stood behind him, a little willing to live under it. Gu Yan had seen in the booklet left to her by her father that the immortal cultivation world had always only been based on cultivation, regardless of age. Not surprising. It's just that this young man and Taoist priest have an obvious immortal cultivator's aura!

According to the rules of the immortal cultivation world, people of the same level can feel each other's breath, but they can't detect each other's cultivation level. Therefore, these two people must be the same people in the Qi cultivation period as her. It's just that she relied on her intuition and faintly felt that the cultivation of the Taoist priest was higher than herself, and the young man must be even stronger. It turned out that this lady was guarded by immortal cultivators, and she suddenly became a little vigilant, looking at the two of them with scrutinizing eyes.

The young man also looked at her, and the eyes of the two exchanged views in mid-air, and then they separated again, Gu Yan faintly felt that this young man was much stronger than her, and other book friends looked at it normally. She arched her hand into the sedan chair: "It turns out that Madame has a master guard, and she is reckless." "I'm going to leave.

The lady said softly: "Now that the north is not peaceful, the young man is going to Yunyang, why don't you go with us, after arriving, the concubine will have gifts to give." ”

Gu Yan didn't stop, and a soft voice came out of the sedan chair: "A spirit stone, how is it?" ”

Gu Yan stopped suddenly, his eyes revealing a very complicated light. The spirit stone can be said to be the most common item in the immortal cultivation world, because the aura between heaven and earth is chaotic and disorderly, and the most haode method is to cultivate by absorbing the aura contained in the spirit stone. The spiritual stone veins on this land have slowly grown out after countless years of changes. Basically, it is kept in the hands of the Immortal Cultivation Sect and some big families, and it is very difficult for ordinary casual cultivators to get spirit stones. This lady must have a deep background, otherwise how could she be a spirit stone for someone she didn't know?

Gu Yan glanced at the young man and said lightly: "If Madam doesn't tell the details, I'm afraid that this piece of spirit stone may not be blessed in the future." ”

The lady said: "There are many people here, and it is inconvenient to speak, why don't you go back to the place where the concubine stays and talk in detail?" ”

Gu Yan was not afraid, if there was no deep hatred between immortal cultivators of the same level, or there was a conflict of interests, they would rarely do anything to each other. After all, once you do it, most of the time you lose both. I didn't have anything to worry about the other party, so I followed generously.

The place where the lady stayed was not remote, it was in the small courtyard of a large inn, probably all covered by her, and it was very quiet inside. The small sedan chair was carried until the courtyard before falling, and a maid opened the sedan curtain for her.

Gu Yan took a closer look, this lady was just a mortal, and smiled in her heart, if this lady even called the maid was an immortal cultivator, it would be a little terrifying.

The lady got out of the sedan chair, her face was still covered with a veil, she was wearing a beautiful dress, her demeanor was dignified and elegant, she smiled at Gu Yan and invited her in.
