Chapter 17: Li Tianlan's Gift
In the wooden house on the top of Nanshan, Chao Xiaonan is sitting cross-legged.
Sensing that Meng Qingwu was still sitting outside looking at the moon, Chao Xiaonan had a somewhat helpless smile on his face.
"I know that I can't hide it from that girl, and I don't know how his little head can be so good. ”
But Chao Xiaonan thought about it again, which of the three of them here is really simple?
"From now on, I am also a congenital master, how can I do this Wuluo Continent without interfering with Xiao Nan!"
Chao Xiaonan stared at the big sword in front of him, he didn't know why he suddenly became an innate person, but he must have something to do with that cave. In the cave, Chao Xiaonan didn't feel any changes in his body, so maybe there was something in that forest that affected his perception of his body, and he didn't find out until he left the forest.
"I'll see it again when I get down tomorrow. Chao Xiaonan had already made up his mind to wait until dawn to explore the forest that seemed to appear suddenly.
"Simplicity. Chao Xiaonan took out the spirit slip that Meng Qingwu gave him from his arms, and the spirit slip shone with a faint spiritual light.
"This is a memento left by the old man...... "Chao Xiaonan's voice sighed a little.
Chao Xiaonan's spiritual power slowly infiltrated into the spiritual jian, and for a while, the light in his hand shone brightly.
Chao Xiaonan squinted, only to see a light curtain appear in front of him, and the sporadic points of light gradually formed Li Tianlan's appearance, and Li Tianlan, who had a childish face in the light curtain, looked at Chao Xiaonan with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
Chao Xiaonan did not scold as usual, and there was an indescribable meaning in his eyes. Ten thousand years ago, he was so arrogant that he was drastic and underwent a drastic change, and the first person he met ten thousand years later was Li Tianlan.
Chao Xiaonan still remembers that the snow that day was exceptionally heavy, and it was also in this Nanshan. The sky is covered with goose feathers and snow, and the ground is covered in silver, which is absolutely poetic in the eyes of a poet, but for a six-year-old child, it is indeed so desperate. Chao Xiaonan, who was reborn into a six-year-old body, walked aimlessly in knee-deep snow, falling down again and again, getting up again and again, he didn't know where to go or where to stop, but he knew he couldn't stop. At last he fell into a nest of snow and could not get up again, when he heard footsteps, an old man with white hair, whose hair was like the snow in the sky......
"Old man, maybe you shouldn't have met me, and the people around me don't necessarily end well. Chao Xiaonan looked at Li Tianlan's image, with a self-deprecating look on his face.
Chao Xiaonan remembered the woman who used to follow behind him ten thousand years ago, the woman who said that she was better than a sword.
"Stinky boy, if the old man expected, the old man should be alive and well now, remember not to come to the old man! I have been annoyed to death by the three of you all these years, and now it is rare to have a good rest......" Li Tianlan's voice came from the light curtain.
Chao Xiaonan didn't speak, just quietly looked at Li Tianlan chattering in the light curtain. He knew that this was just a formation laid out in advance, and it didn't have real life.
"With all that said, it's time to get down to business. You and I made a ten-year covenant, and it's almost time to do it, which means that now you can do what you really want to do. Li Tianlan said with some emotion, so fast ten years have passed......
"But no matter what you do, you can't leave the alchemy behind, the old man has learned very much in his life, but only alchemy can be regarded as a real entry into the house, and the body that has been recuperated for you for five years will allow you to do alchemy, and you will understand the benefits of this in the future. Li Tianlan's face became serious.
"And most importantly, you asked me what happened 10,000 years ago, and you drew a pattern for me to see, and I didn't tell you the answer at that time, but the answer is that I don't know the answer either. ”
Li Tianlan's first sentence was not surprising to Xiaonan, he knew that Li Tianlan must have something to say.
"All I know is that 10,000 years ago, life on the continent suddenly became endangered, but there are seeds that have survived and remultiplied. It was because of the drastic changes 10,000 years ago that a series of changes took place in the Wuluo Continent, such as the spiritual power of heaven and earth suddenly became abundant, and the cultivation system began to develop rapidly, so that the continent has the appearance it has today. As for the pattern you showed me, I don't know what it is, and since I don't even know it, the people on this continent who know it are rare. Li Tianlan's expression was full of pride, and it was indeed an indescribable pleasure to be able to praise himself in front of his apprentice.
The corner of Xiao Nan's mouth twitched, although he was not surprised by this result, he was still slightly disappointed.
"Okay, I've told you what I should tell you, now it's time to talk about what the old man left for you, you stinky boy must also complain in your heart that the old man is an iron man**!" Li Tianlan laughed softly.
Chao Xiaonan smiled when he heard this, "Sure enough, the old man knows me best." At the same time, he still had some expectations in his heart, after all, it seemed that the old man was still a little famous on the mainland.
"What I left you with, you can see when you open the storage ring. Li Tianlan said mysteriously.
When Chao Xiaonan heard this, he probed his storage ring, and he really found that there were three exquisite small wooden boxes.
"This ...... Why didn't I find out before?" Chao Xiaonan's face was full of doubts, the storage ring had been on his hand, and he didn't even feel it?
"Know the gap between yourself and the master, so the matter of your possession of the storage ring must also be kept secret, I have asked someone to attach a spirit array to this ring, he can shield the inspection of other people's spiritual power, unless his person's spiritual level is higher than that of the old man, but this is also impossible......" Li Tianlan in the video laughed, he could imagine his apprentice's current expression.
"This ring is the old man's first gift, and the second is in the first box you see. In the video, Li Tianlan paused and said.
Hearing this, Xiao Nan's heart moved, a small wooden box appeared out of thin air, and Xiao Nan slowly opened the wooden box, and in the box was a yellowed cloth, with patterns on it, and Xiao Nan took it out and pounded it a few times.
"Why did this old man leave me a diaper?" said Chao Xiaonan with a disgusted face.
Fortunately, the opposite side of Chao Xiaonan is only the image left by Li Tianlan, otherwise hearing Chao Xiaonan's words will definitely give Chao Xiaonan a few kicks.
Chao Xiaonan observed for a while and made a new discovery.
"Oh! it's a map...... This is the map of the entire Wuluo Continent!" Chao Xiaonan's eyes were full of incredulity, and he saw that everything on the map was detailed, from small counties to large provinces, and even the Jianghu sects in many places were also marked.
"Yes, this is exactly what the old man did when he walked the rivers and lakes, and it was painted by the old man himself!" In the video, Li Tianlan stroked his snow-white beard, full of self-satisfaction.
"I said why is it so ugly, it looks like a diaper alive......" Chao Xiaonan whispered, but Li Tianlan in the video naturally didn't know about his complaints.
"As the old man's disciple, you naturally can't do without weapons, open the second box. ”
When Xiao Nan heard this, he opened the second box, only to see that there were three short swords inside, and there was a sandalwood jade pendant next to the short sword.
The short swords were the three short swords that surrounded Li Tianlan when he appeared in the morning, but what really made Chao Xiaonan's pupils shrink was the sandalwood jade pendant, because Chao Xiaonan felt an extremely familiar aura on the jade pendant, which was his own breath!
He stretched out his hand and slowly took the jade pendant in his hand, and there were three words engraved on the jade pendant - Chao Xiaonan.
