Chapter 69

Hearing this, Bai Shuiyue nodded with satisfaction, and then she said softly: "Well, it's time to let her out, and when she gets out, let her go out to find Zhao Pengtian's stinky boy." Since he went to Smoke and Rain City, let's also let Shui Yun and Shui Lan take a few people there to have a look!"

Hearing this, Bai Mercury smiled and said, "Hehe, sister, when did you become so emotional, this is not your style!"

"Hey...... What's the solution, the girl is not staying, who told Yue'er to be desperate to talk to that kid, if something happens to him, Yue'er will probably ignore me for the rest of her life...... "Hey," Bai Shuiyue replied softly.

Seeing Bai Shuiyue's melancholy appearance, Bai Mercury comforted: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, sister, don't worry, Yue'er will understand your hard work!" After speaking, the two looked at each other, and then they "revealed" a sweet smile, as cute as a girl.

Ouyang's appearance caused a storm in the rivers and lakes, and even Feiyunmen, who had not expressed his stance on Ouyang, began to move at this time, participating in Yanyu City, and the owner of Feiyunmen personally led the five tigers and a hundred masters to Yanyu City together......

All in all, Ouyang's appearance this time made all the major gangs in the rivers and lakes take action and flock towards Yanyu City.

The city of smoke and rain is a unique city, located in the valley of the southwest, surrounded by high mountains, rain and mist, all year round in the smoke and rain, called the lady of the forest, very shy, restrained.

Ouyang and the others followed the path to the southwest, after a day's journey, they came to the foot of the mountain, stood on the ground, looked up, only to see the green mountains towering into the clouds, not to see the top, countless clouds and mist wrapped around, people can see "confused" and "confused", I don't know whether it is true or false.

Looking at the towering mountain, everyone's hearts suddenly felt cold, and they were very depressed, and they bowed their heads in frustration and said nothing. Looking at their appearance, Ouyang smiled and said, "Okay, after turning over the mountain in front of us, we will arrive at the legendary Smoke and Rain City, when the time comes, we can relax and relax, let's go!" After speaking, Ouyang took the lead in walking up.

Hearing Ouyang's words, everyone's hearts felt infinite happiness, but when they looked up and saw the towering peak, their mood suddenly fell to the bottom of the valley and everyone was depressed, so they turned their eyes to Ouyang, only to see that Ouyang was slowly climbing the mountain, so all the people gritted their teeth and shouted loudly in their hearts: "Fight ......" Finally, all the people followed behind Ouyang and set off to the top of the mountain together.

At the foot of the mountain are tall trees, with the rise of height, the vegetation is not reduced, but more and more, out of the tall vegetation that can be seen everywhere, there are many bewitching flowers and plants, which are simply more spring than spring.

Looking at the mountains of blooming flowers, Ouyang exclaimed: "What a miracle, in such a high place, there are still so many flowers blooming, with the current scale, it is definitely more enchanting than the outside, it seems that this Smoke and Rain City is very strange, and when we arrive in Smoke and Rain City, be careful, don't offend others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their heads to look around, and suddenly felt very uneasy in their hearts, so Ouyang Jue nodded lightly and said solemnly: "Well, what the young master said is right, this place is indeed a bit weird, a little unreasonable, after seeing the scenery here, I always have a feeling of uneasiness, I always feel that something is going to happen!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded firmly, looked around nervously, and clenched the weapons in their hands to prevent accidents.

Seeing everyone's nervous looks, Ouyang said: "Well, in short, be careful, let's go, fight, and arrive in Yanyu City before dark!"

"Yes!" the group said in unison, and together they carefully continued their climb.

Three hours later, everyone finally came to the top of the mountain with great effort. After reaching the top of the mountain, everyone lay on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath.

At this time, all of them were sweating profusely, looking tired, and there was no strength in their bodies, even if they were a young man who didn't know martial arts, they could beat them all over the ground to find their teeth.

It took them a long time to rest for a cup of tea before they came to their senses. Looking up at the sky, a giant sun was above their heads, releasing light and shining on them, so Ouyang blurted out, "It's noon now, let's take a little rest, eat some dry food, and then continue walking." The descent is relatively easy, I think we should be able to reach the city of smoke and rain before dusk! Okay, let's take a good rest, eat something, and we'll set off later!"

After hearing Ouyang's words, everyone took out their own dry food from their baggage and chewed it slowly, looking very quiet! Just like that, half an hour passed.

After eating, everyone regained seventy or eighty percent of their physical strength. So Ouyang stood up straight, sorted out his baggage, and then said loudly to everyone: "Okay, let's go!"

So, one by one, they immediately stood up, looked at Ouyang with high spirits, and nodded gently, so Ouyang went down the mountain together and set off towards Yanyu City.

The scenery around the inner dimension of the city is completely different from the outside. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, layers of faint water vapor surround the Yanyu City, looming, putting a heavy veil on the Yanyu City, which looks very mysterious! Walking all the way down, the trees are getting fewer and fewer, the flowers and plants are also beginning to become monotonous, the original colorful flower sea gradually becomes the world of changing "color", because a new bright spot appears in front of everyone, so that everyone is dumbfounded, only to see countless white daffodils blooming on the mountain, and the faint fragrance blows in the face, making people feel very helpless.

Seeing the flowers in front of him, Ouyang said in surprise: "This ...... This...... Make no mistake, there are daffodils blooming on the mountain, and they are still in patches, which is too unreasonable, isn't it?"

"Yes, what the hell is this place, there are some strange things that go against common sense, my brain is about to explode......" I saw Ouyang Lin covering his head with both hands and said frantically.

"There must be something strange in this place, according to common sense, there are usually three reasons for this situation, first, there are spiritual treasures born from heaven and earth buried here, which changes the climate here, as well as the environment in which vegetation grows; second, there are ancient divine beasts here, relying on the breath, feces, and blood of divine beasts Thirdly, and the most special reason, there are races like our innate clan living in this Smoke and Rain City, and they rely on their clan treasures to transform everything here, so as to achieve the purpose of race continuation. Ouyang Lin suddenly said calmly.

Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to Ouyang Lin, only to see Ouyang Lin standing there with a cold face, fully showing his personality. Facing this Ouyang Lin, who was not good at words, Ouyang had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

After pondering for a while, Ouyang said: "Since this is the case, then let's move on, whether it is the Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure, the Ancient Divine Beast or the Ancient Race, it is all beneficial and harmless to us, no matter what, we have to find out the reason, if it is the Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure or the Ancient Divine Beast, we will snatch it, if it is the ancient race, we will find a way to reach an alliance with them and strengthen the bargaining chips for the revival of our race!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded happily and looked at Ouyang with a firm expression, their hearts full of passion.

Just when everyone was excited, Ouyang Lin said solemnly: "That may not be!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him suspiciously, and their hearts were full of puzzlement, so Ouyang asked softly, "What did Brother Lin mean when he spoke?

Hearing this, Ouyang Lin was expressionless and said coldly: "Yes, you did say something wrong, and it was a big mistake!"

Hearing this, Ouyang Jue was the first to stand up, pointed at Ouyang Lin and scolded loudly: "Ouyang Lin, you are too presumptuous, you dare to be so rude to the young master!" After finishing speaking, he prepared to walk forward and beat Ouyang Lin violently.

Hearing this, Ouyang's whole body was blindfolded, and he looked at the cold Ouyang Lin, unable to speak for a while. Suddenly, Ouyang Jue walked in front of Ouyang Lin angrily, ready to fight Ouyang Lin. So Ouyang immediately hugged Ouyang Jue and said loudly: "Brother Jue, don't be angry, calm down!"

"Young master, don't stop me, I have to teach this kid a good lesson today, it's too arrogant!" Ouyang Jue said angrily.

Seeing Ouyang Jue's tyrannical appearance, Ouyang said gently: "Brother Jue, calm down, I know you are thinking about me, but everyone is brothers, you should listen to Brother Lin first!"

Seeing Ouyang defending Ouyang Lin like this, Ouyang Jue put down his hands and stopped. After settling Ouyang Jue, Ouyang turned his head to look at Ouyang Lin and asked softly, "Brother Lin, Brother Jue was a little impulsive just now, don't take it to heart!" Hearing this, Ouyang Lin nodded lightly. So Ouyang continued: "That's right, Brother Lin, you just said that I was wrong, I don't know where Zhentian's mistake is, I hope Brother Lin can tell me!" After finishing speaking, Ouyang bowed deeply to Ouyang Lin.

Seeing Ouyang so sincere, Ouyang Lin said indifferently: "What the young master said is indeed reasonable, but the last point is wrong. Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened and they stared at Ouyang Lin tightly.

So Ouyang asked, "Oh, I don't know, why did I say the last sentence wrong?"

Ouyang Lin looked at everyone and continued: "Because, even if there is an ancient race here, it is also an evil race!" As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in amazement. So Ouyang Lin continued: "According to the records of the Congenital Clan, today, in addition to the ancient races of the five brothers of the Congenital Race, the Didi Digger, the Xuannu, the Bright Light, and the Ghost Brother, there are also the two evil ancient races of Shura and Bloodbrake. Both races have ambitions to rule the world, so they have been suppressed by our five races for generations, the most recent of which was just three hundred years ago. According to the records of the clan's classics, none of the five clans inhabit this place, so if there are ancient races here, it is definitely these two evil races, so the last sentence of the young clan is wrong. ”

Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded, Shura and Bloodbrake, the two ancient evil races, if they really lived in Smoke and Rain City, then they were not in the net...... The thought of this made everyone feel extremely frightened, but they were going to the Swamp of Death, and this was the way they had to go. So they moved on with a heavy heart.

At ten o'clock in the evening, five young people stood in front of a city, their hearts were full of complicated feelings, and finally, everyone gritted their teeth and strode towards the city together!

As soon as I stepped into the city of smoke and rain, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable, the whole city was misty and rainy, and everything ten steps away was shrouded in smoke, which made people feel very disgusted. (Zhao Pengtian)

Ouyang and his party walked slowly on the street, carefully observing the pedestrians around them, and found that all the people were wearing thick windbreakers and wearing various hats, walking on the street, which made Ouyang and the others feel very puzzled.

So, Ouyang Shi asked curiously: "Do the people here have a 'problem', do they wrap themselves so tightly in broad daylight, not to mention that this is still spring, and it's not cold, as for it?" After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone with a look of surprise and confusion.

After seeing the pedestrians here, Ouyang also felt very strange, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Ouyang said: "Okay, this is someone else's custom, we don't have to worry so much, let's continue to move forward, find an inn, stay, have a good rest, and then everyone discuss the next step!"

So everyone continued to move forward under the leadership of Ouyang. Along the way, it seemed extraordinarily leisurely, without the slightest shouting sound, except for the busy pedestrians on the street, there was nothing else, let alone containers placed along the street, which also made Ouyang and others feel very puzzled.

After walking a few streets down the street, the five of them came to the inn. "Friendship Inn", the first thing that catches your eye is these four gold lacquer characters. After seeing these four words, Ouyang Jue said: "'Friendship Inn'? hehe, it's very interesting, it seems that the owner of this inn has quite a connotation, the sound is different, the line seems to be meaningful, En'en, interesting and interesting!" So Ouyang Jue stood in place and nodded with satisfaction.

After seeing these four words, Ouyang also felt very comfortable in his heart, so Ouyang said: "It's really interesting, okay, let's live here!" After speaking, Ouyang walked into the house with the four of them.

After entering the house, Ouyang and others found that the owner of this inn is indeed extraordinary, although the inn is not big, but there are a lot of interesting things in the house, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, eighteen kinds of weapons, antiques and jade, everything, Ouyang and others stood in place and were stunned. The same voice surged into everyone's hearts, "Isn't it? This is too shocking, is this still an inn? Isn't this a small treasure trove......?"

Seeing someone enter the door, there was a young man with long eyebrows and clear eyes, and he came to them and said respectfully: "A few guest officers, I don't know if you are eating or staying in a hotel?"

Suddenly hearing this voice, all the people couldn't help but be startled, and shook their bodies slightly, although Ouyang said, "Huh...... We live in the hotel, please help us arrange five rooms, preferably next to each other!"

So the young second brother said, "Okay, please come with me!" Then he bent over, stretched out a hand to one side, and motioned for them to go this way. So Ouyang and the others nodded lightly at the little second brother, and then walked in the direction he pointed.

After walking more than a dozen steps, Ouyang and the others came to the counter, only to see an old man with a goatee bowing his head there and making a serious dial for this abacus. So Xiao Er said softly: "Shopkeeper, these guest officers want five upper rooms!"

After hearing the voice, the old man said softly: "Oh?" Then he slowly raised his head and looked at everyone, a pair of gentle eyes swept in front of Ouyang and the others, and a feeling of uneasiness arose from time to time, making Ouyang and the others feel very uncomfortable!

Then the old man said kindly: "The old man doesn't seem to be a local, right?"

Swept by the old man's eyes, everyone's hearts were already unusual, but this sudden question made most people at a loss for a while, standing in place and looking at the old man with a shocked face, even Ouyang was in a 'confused' at this time, not knowing how to answer. [Zhao Pengtian]

When everyone was thinking about the word of relief, Ouyang Lin suddenly said gently: "Yes, the shopkeeper, we are from Feiyun City, we have wanted to play around since we were children, increase our knowledge, this time I came to Yanyu City mainly to enjoy the unique scenery here, so I came to disturb, and I hope that the shopkeeper will take care of me!" After speaking, he bowed deeply to the shopkeeper.

Seeing Ouyang Lin so respectful, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "Oh, hehe, it turned out to be a guest from afar, welcome, on behalf of the people of Yanyu City, I welcome the arrival of a few people, if a few people have any needs, try to tell Xiao Er, the old man will definitely meet a few!" So he said to Xiao Er: "Xiangzi, take care of a few guests from afar!" and then handed Xiangzi five door plates.

After taking the door number, I saw Xiangzi say peacefully: "Shopkeeper, don't worry!" Then he turned to Ouyang and the others and said, "A few guests, please come with me!"

So Ouyang paid the deposit and walked back with Xiangzi.

The backyard is very clean, and a few flowers and plants are planted in the pots, emitting a faint fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed. After walking for a while, Ouyang and the others came to their respective rooms. Speaking of rooms, the people here are quite interesting, and they actually named the rooms "Friends from afar, happy!" The other rooms are also based on the Analects, all about the welcome and friendship of friends. After arrangement, Ouyang and others were arranged in "friends", "self", "far", "square", and "come", while Ouyang lived in the "self" room, according to Ouyang's understanding, it is "free and easy"!

The first time I walked into the room, I saw a pot of daffodils in front of the bed in the room, the white figure, and the faint fragrance, which made Ouyang feel very suspicious, so Ouyang asked curiously: "Xiangzi, why, you people here like daffodils so much, we saw so many in the mountains when we came, and now there are still in the guest room, if I don't miscalculate, I'm afraid that every family here will plant daffodils in their own homes, right?"

Hearing this, Xiangzi was not surprised at all, so he smiled and said to Ouyang: "Hehe, the guests from afar are really smart, you are right, every household here is indeed planted with water fragrance flowers." Guests don't need to be surprised, it's normal because daffodils are our patron saints. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang felt more and more curious, so he said, "Guardian Spirit, what's going on?"

"This is going to start with the creation of Smoke and Rain City...... A long time ago, the earth was in turmoil, there were wars everywhere, and there were countless human casualties, so there were some people who were tired of war and lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests together, avoiding the strife of the world, seeking a paradise on earth, a happy life, so they began to look around, looking for many places, and when they were all destroyed due to the impact of war, they started a new journey when the promised land was destroyed, and so they kept searching, and finally after decades, they finally came here. It was a desolate place, and there was nothing but a withering flower in the valley......

They were sad when they saw this, and they were ready to rest for a night and then move on. Seeing that the daffodils were about to wither, they reached out and gave the daffodils the corresponding moisture to restore their brilliance. On the night of the resurrection of the daffodils, a miracle happened, a fairy with a white body appeared in front of everyone, and said to everyone affectionately, "Dear human, thank you for saving me, in order to repay you, I will always guard you, you can rest assured that you can stay here...... By the next day, the climate here had undergone earth-shaking changes, the mountains were cloudy, the smoke and rain were hazy, the earth was full of life, and the flowers and plants were constantly sprouting.

Since they stayed, there has been no fighting. Since then, the inhabitants of this place have lived happily ever after, and in honor of the fairy, we planted daffodils in every house, hoping for the blessing of the fairy......"

Hearing this story, Ouyang fell into deep thought. Xiangzi saw Ouyang's thoughtful look, so he said, "Guest from afar, if you don't have anything else, then I'll go out?"

Hearing Xiangzi's voice, Ouyang came to his senses and said to him with a smile: "Oh, then you go and get busy first, I'm calling you for something!"

So Xiangzi said, "Okay, then guest, you can rest first!" After speaking, Xiangzi walked out of the room and closed the door without Ouyang.

After Xiangzi left, Ouyang sat lightly on the bench, "touching" his chin, and looked thoughtful.
