A few days later.

"Childe, look, is that the boundary mountain that Elder Wu said?"

Bai Suzhen pointed to the faint mountain shadow in the distance with some excitement.

When he was in the oasis, Uting said that thousands of miles away from the oasis there was a boundary mountain, which was the end of the desert.

Crossing the boundary mountain, there is a new world.

It's just that their people have never left the desert, so they don't know exactly what is on the other side of the Boundary Mountain.

Gu Ming observed carefully for a while, and couldn't help but show joy on his face: "It should be the Boundary Mountain." ”

"Boom~"

Ying Ning let out two cheerful cries and began to speed up and run.

After a few hours, we finally arrived at the foot of the boundary mountain.

The peaks are not high, and there are no clouds. And it looked lifeless, not a single flower or plant could be seen, it was all large dark brown rocks.

It took four or five days for the two of them and one fox to cross this boundary mountain that was tens of thousands of meters high and stretched for two or three thousand miles.

"It's so beautiful!"

Turning over the boundary mountain, what you see is a fantasy scene like a fairyland.

Thousands of peaks are lined up, clouds and mist are shrouded, waterfalls are everywhere, and the grass and trees are verdant.

A great river meandered beneath the clouds, like a dragon with no head or tail hidden in the peaks.

The fresh aura is refreshing and refreshing.

"Let's go!"

After enjoying the beautiful scenery for a while, Gu Ming waved his hand and took the lead to the bottom of the mountain.

After walking through the labyrinthine mountains and forests for several days, he encountered more than a dozen battles, and at the same time, he also harvested a lot of rare spirit grass.

When I walked out of the mountains, I saw another scene in front of me: an endless grassland, like a blue ocean.

After two days of travel, Gu Ming finally found a human village.

It's just that these people are not ordinary human beings, they are tall and strong, and adult men and women are generally half a body taller than Gu Ming.

Fortunately, the two sides can barely communicate.

After some inquiry, Gu Ming finally learned where the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan was located, which was called Snow Plain by the people here, and walked northwest out of the village, about more than 10,000 miles.

When he set off again, Gu Ming's steps were much lighter and his mood was much lighter.

Although he was not completely sure, he believed that as long as he found the realm of the Nine Fox Sky Fox Clan, he would definitely be able to find his wife's whereabouts.

It's just, where is Xiaoqing's girl?

On the next journey, Gu Ming quickened his pace, and with flying from time to time, he left the grassland and came to the edge of the snowfield within a few days.

Along the way, after many inquiries, Gu Ming has determined that the territory of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan is located in the snow field, but no one has said the specific location clearly.

The edges of the snowfields are not icy and snowy, only some of the higher mountains have snow on them, and the flat ground is still green.

After walking for most of the day, Bai Suzhen suddenly stopped......

"What's the matter, White Girl?"

Gu Ming looked at Bai Suzhen and stopped to look around, and couldn't help but stop and ask.

"I seem to sense Xiaoqing's breath......"

Gu Ming's eyebrows moved: "Xiaoqing? So, is it possible that she is around here? ”

"I can't tell...... I just had a sudden feeling in my heart, but it was only for a moment......"

At this moment, Bai Suzhen's expression looked a little dazed.

Because she didn't know if it was her own illusion or if she really sensed Xiaoqing's breath.

"Otherwise, let's look around here, and we can't miss a glimmer of hope."

Gu Ming said thoughtfully.

"Hmm!"

Bai Suzhen nodded.

So, the two of them began to explore the surroundings.

When they came to a valley covered with ice and snow, Bai Suzhen suddenly frowned and whispered, "Childe, someone is secretly watching us. ”

Gu Ming smiled: "Well, if you find out, don't bother with it first, just don't know." ”

"Good!"

After walking along the valley for a while, the other party finally stopped hiding and rushed down the hillside......

These are three demons who have changed their shapes, but they have not completely transformed themselves, and they are basically half-human and half-beast.

"Look for death!"

Gu Ming had already discovered the other party's aura, but he felt that the other party was too weak and didn't want to make a move.

But now, the other party actually rushed over without a long eye, so you're welcome......

"Don't do it!"

"We're not bad guys!"

"Uncle spares ...... life"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Ming's killing thoughts started, the other party knelt down far away and shouted.

"This ......"

Bai Suzhen couldn't help but glance at Gu Ming, with an expression of crying and laughing.

Are these three guys here to be funny?

"Dare to ask if this aunt's surname is Bai?"

The little demon with a bear's head in the middle asked with a smile.

"Huh?"

Bai Suzhen was stunned, and then her face moved...... How would these little goblins know her last name? Could it be......

"This uncle must be surnamed Gu, right?"

"And this little white fox is called Ying Ning?"

The three little demons are one by one, now, there is nothing to doubt, they must know the whereabouts of Xiaoqing or Nie Xiaoqian.

"How do you know where we come from? Who told you? ”

Gu Ming asked anxiously.

"Uncle, this is what our king said, and the king ordered us to patrol the mountains outside, and take you back to the ......mountains once we find your traces."

"The King?"

Gu Ming was speechless and glanced at Bai Suzhen.

"It must be Xiaoqing!"

Bai Suzhen asked with a wry smile, her expression was also extremely excited.

Do you still have to guess? Only Xiaoqing, who has always been stubborn, would do such a thing, how could Nie Xiaoqian run away to be the king of the mountain?

Really......

As the three little demons came to their lair, Xiaoqing also seemed to sense it and flew out to meet them.

"Sister, sister......"

Sure enough, it was a deep sisterhood, this girl directly ignored Gu Ming and ran straight to Bai Suzhen.

"Xiaoqing!"

Although she already knew that Xiaoqing was here, when she saw Xiaoqing with her own eyes, Bai Suzhen still couldn't help but burst into tears.

After all, the two sisters have cultivated together and lived and died together for more than 200 years, although they are not sisters, they are better than sisters.

"Boom ......"

After a while, Ying Ning also ran over happily.

"Xiao Yingning, I miss my sister."

Xiaoqing picked up Ying Ning and rubbed its face desperately.

"Dead girl, are you going to be the king of the mountain all the time here?"

Gu Ming also walked over and teased.

"Hmph, do you think this girl wants to? It's not like these short-eyed guys are provoking ......"

Xiao Qing glared at the group of subordinates viciously.

Frightened, the group of little demons shuddered, and they showed ugly smiles one by one.

"Xiaoqing, what's going on? Why are you here? ”

Bai Suzhen couldn't help but ask.

Xiaoqing explained: "When I was in the valley of Kunlun Mountain, I suddenly lost consciousness, fainted for a while, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself lying in the snow.

Just as this girl was looking at her surroundings in a daze, several guys who didn't have long eyes came around......"

Speaking of this, Xiaoqing's eyes glanced at those subordinates again.

"King, the little one is going to patrol the mountains!"

"King, go prepare some melons and fruits......

"Big King, Little ......"

A group of subordinates found an excuse to slip away.

Xiaoqing continued to say triumphantly: "These guys thought that this girl was seriously injured and wanted to tie up this girl and go back to the mountain, but they were beaten up by this girl.

I wanted to release them, but then I thought about it, I don't know where I am, isn't this walk a little dark?

So I escorted those guys back to the cottage, and then ...... You know, another beating......

Beat these short-eyed guys to obedience, and they will naturally worship this girl as the king......"

This kind of style is really very young!

Of course, I have to say that her method is really good, saving her from running around alone, she only needs to sit comfortably in the cottage and summon a group of subordinates.

Although Xiaoqing looks lazy to use her brain on weekdays, it doesn't mean that she can't use her brain.

This time fully demonstrated her wisdom.

Through the narration of her subordinates, she obtained the whereabouts of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan, knowing that Nie Xiaoqian and the others would eventually find here, so she adopted the method of waiting for the rabbit, and at the same time sent her subordinates to inquire about the news.

"Xiaoqing, how far is the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox's territory from here?"

Hearing Xiaoqing finish talking about the reason, Gu Ming couldn't help but ask.

"Not far, at most 2,000 miles ......"

"Then you didn't go over and take a look?" Bai Suzhen couldn't help frowning.

"It's useless for me to go, people outside can't get in at all, and they can't even find the entrance......"

That's right, the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox is not an ordinary race, their territory must have a strong prohibition, how can people from the outside world easily break in?

"Okay Xiaoqing, it's time to say goodbye to your little friend."

"Huh? Are we going to go now? ”

Xiaoqing doesn't seem to have enough addiction to being the king of the mountain, and she looks reluctant.

"Or else? There is no news about Xiaoqian alone, if you like to be this king, then stay. ”

"Cut, who is rare to be the king of the mountain?"

Xiaoqing obviously looked insincere.

Of course, she can't really stay here, it's just to have fun.

Not long after, Xiaoqing confessed, officially gave up the throne of the Mountain King, and followed Gu Ming and his party to the snow valley she said.

This time with a destination, Gu Ming no longer stopped and walked, flew all the way, and arrived at the destination in only one day.

It's a huge valley of snow, crisscrossed like a spider's web when viewed from the top of the mountain.

Gu Ming observed on the mountain for a full hour, and finally roughly determined a range.

So, the group went down the mountain to the snow valley and began to look for all the traces of spiders and worms within the locked range.

Unexpectedly, the result was far smoother than expected......

Just after looking for a while, an old woman with a teenage girl suddenly appeared in front of me.

"Hey, who are you?"

Xiaoqing immediately pulled out of the stance, looking like he was about to start fighting if he didn't agree with him.

"Xiaoqing, don't come nonsense!"

Gu Ming sensed that there was a wisp of familiar aura on the other party's body, and it was certain that it was someone from the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan, so he hurriedly scolded Xiaoqing, and then bowed respectfully to the old woman.

"The junior Gu Ming took the liberty of coming here to look for his wife Nie Xiaoqian and the younger generation's mother-in-law."

"Everyone, please go back, our Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan never accepts outsiders."

The old woman replied coldly.

"But grandma, my brother-in-law doesn't seem to be an outsider......

Unexpectedly, the little girl who came out with the old woman raised her head and said a good word.

"Xiao Yue'er shut up, I said that I wouldn't let you come out, you came out, and you came out and talked nonsense."

The little girl reached out cutely to cover her mouth, and at the same time winked at Gu Ming mischievously.

"Boom~"

Ying Ning seemed to like Xiao Yue'er very much, and rushed to her feet and screamed softly.

"Hee-hee, little cutie, come, sister hug."

Xiao Yue'er suddenly smiled, bent down and hugged Ying Ning.

At this time, Ying Ning also winked mischievously at Gu Ming.

This pair of ghosts and elves!

Gu Ming was secretly amused in his heart, and said to the old woman again: "Senior, junior is making a special trip to accompany his wife Nie Xiaoqian back to her parents' house this time.

I just didn't expect a little accident on the way, and we were separated.

The younger generations have experienced countless disasters along the way, traveled tens of thousands of miles, and finally found here, and I hope that the seniors will be accommodating. ”

"Seniors, juniors think that what this little sister said is reasonable.

Xiaoqing and I can be regarded as outsiders, but Gu Gongzi married the daughter of your clan, and he is the uncle of your clan, and he is not an outsider.

I also hope that the seniors will open the net and let Gu Gongzi in. ”

"Grandma, you just let your brother-in-law and these two sisters in, otherwise Sister Xiaoqian will be sad......"

Hearing this, Gu Ming was pleasantly surprised, and asked anxiously, "Little sister, is Xiaoqian inside?" ”

"Well, Sister Xiaoqian has been here for many days, and she was injured when she came, and it was Grandma who helped Sister Xiaoqian heal."

"Great! Thank you seniors, thank you seniors! ”

Hearing that his wife was well, Gu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked the old woman repeatedly.

"Little Yue'er ......"

The old woman glared at Xiao Yue'er with some dissatisfaction, and then sighed: "Well, since you have found this place, the old woman will make an exception and take you in at one time." ”

"Thank you, senior!"

It can be seen that the old woman is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and at the beginning she said that she would not accept outsiders, but as a result, she not only brought Gu Ming and Ying Ning in, but also Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing.

At first, Gu Ming thought that there was a protective array or a prohibition or something like that, but he didn't expect it to be an enchantment.

Of course, the enchantment can also be understood as a formation, but the means are more sophisticated, and it requires strong mana support.

Compared to the mountain defense arrays of the various major sects, the enchantment envelopes a wider range, wider, and larger, and can even divide a world into two, or form a world independently.

In short, with Gu Ming's current strength, even if he has the corresponding magic weapon in his hand, he doesn't have enough mana to support and arrange an enchantment.

After crossing the barrier, you will be presented with another world, completely different from the outside world.

Outside is a snowy valley, but here, there are green mountains and green waters, clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

"Brother-in-law, quick, I'll take you to Sister Xiaoqian."

As soon as she entered, Xiao Yue'er enthusiastically shouted to take Gu Ming to find Nie Xiaoqian.

Of course, Gu Ming couldn't ask for it, after all, he didn't see his wife in person, and he was inevitably a little uneasy.

"You go, the old man will take these two girls to settle down first."

Although the old woman's tone was cold, what she said could bring a hint of warmth.

Of course, the most heart-warming thing is the lively and cute Xiao Yue'er, which is like an intimate little padded jacket.

"Lalala......"

Xiao Yue'er hummed a little song, and ran towards the halfway up the hill with Ying Ning.

I had just run for a short while, but a shadow came out of the slope......

"Xiao Qian!"

"Gu Lang!"

The couple finally reunited, calling each other excitedly.

Then, one rushed up the hillside like a whirlwind, and the other rushed down the hillside soaked in tears.

Needless to say, a lingering hug.

"Don't look at the little one, shame!"

Xiao Yue'er picked up Ying Ning and turned around, looking like a villain.

"Gu Lang, I knew it, I knew that you would definitely find it here."

Nie Xiaoqian hugged her husband tightly and cried with joy.

"Xiaoqian, how did you get here?"

"I can't tell...... By the time I woke up, I was already in the vicinity, and I sensed where the people lived, so I searched all the way......"

"I'm so lucky, do you know how many twists and turns we've gone through and how far we've come to get here......"

Gu Ming began to talk about what happened to him.

"Oh my God, you guys...... You're so far apart...... It's okay, it's okay...... Good thing you did find it in the end......"

"Boom~"

At this time, Ying Ning couldn't help but run over and rubbed her head against Nie Xiaoqian affectionately.

"Poor baby Ning ......"

Nie Xiaoqian bent down and hugged Ying Ning.

"This little guy also suffered a lot, it was unlucky, it happened to fall not far from the Demon Wolf King's lair when it teleported, and finally failed to escape, and was locked up by the Demon Wolf King......

The husband and wife respectively recounted their experiences after separation, and finally, Gu Ming subconsciously asked, "By the way, isn't my mother-in-law here?" ”

At the mention of her mother, Nie Xiaoqian's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she sobbed: "Mother kisses her...... She was under house arrest, which is why she never came down to accompany me and my father. ”

"House arrest? What's going on? Did she break the rules? ”

"Let's go in and talk about it...... Xiao Yue'er, you go back first, and my sister will come to you with my brother-in-law when I turn around. ”

"Oh!"

Xiao Yue'er responded obediently, then glanced at Ying Ning again, and said with a blank look: "Sister Xiao Qian, can I take Ying Ning back to play with me?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help but say to Ying Ning: "Ying Ning, can you accompany Xiao Yue'er to play?" ”

Ying Ning was also well-behaved and nodded.

"yes, great, Ying Ning, let's go."

Xiao Yue'er happily took Ying Ning, waved her hand at Nie Xiaoqian and Gu Ming, and said sweetly: "Sister Xiaoqian, brother-in-law, see you later." ”

"Well, I'll see you later!"

After Xiao Yue'er and Ying Ning left, Gu Ming couldn't help but smile: "This girl is quite sensible, and she helped me say good things outside at the beginning." ”

"Well, Xiao Yue'er is actually my cousin, and her mother and my mother are sisters."

"I see...... So, the grandma who brought us in was a pro-grandma? ”

"Yes!"

After sorting out the relationship between the characters, Nie Xiaoqian began to talk about the reason why her mother was under house arrest.

"After I came here, I found out that my mother kissed her...... She was actually engaged to my father before she got married, and the wedding date was set......"

Hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but be taken aback: "Huh? So my mother-in-law and my mother-in-law...... She's not going to be running away, is she? ”

Nie Xiaoqian smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's right, it's a marriage escape, she hasn't talked about this matter, including me and my father have always been in the dark." ”

"What the hell is going on? There must be some special reason for this. ”

"That's right, the marriage of the mother-in-law was decided by the patriarch, and the other party's name was Chang Xuan, who was the leader of the younger generation back then, and also the future patriarch candidate, and was called the young master by the clansmen.

At that time, my mother was recognized as the most gifted woman in the clan, and was highly valued by the patriarch and other elders.

Therefore, after the patriarch discussed with the elders, it was decided to marry my mother to Chang Xuan.

In their philosophy, in terms of appearance, talent, and talent, my mother and relatives can be called the best candidates for the future patriarch's wife.

At first, my mother firmly disagreed, because she didn't want to tie her life to the interests of the family, and she didn't want to marry a man who had no emotional foundation.

However, her strength alone is really too thin.

Even grandma ...... She also supported this marriage, saying that Chang Xuan was young and promising, even if he was not the patriarch, his future achievements would be immeasurable.

Under pressure from many parties, the mother was forced to accept the marriage.

In fact, the mother did this just to stabilize the clan, because she decided to secretly find an opportunity to leave.

If she doesn't agree to the marriage, she will be sent by the patriarch to take care of her.

Eventually, just a few days before the wedding, the mother finally found a chance to leave the place, and escaped the clan's tracking with secret techniques, and hid in the world.

Soon after, my mother and my father met by accident...... You know what happened next.

Father and mother love each other sincerely, but the mother knows very well in her heart that she can't hide for too long, and the clansmen will finally find her one day.

Sure enough, not long after my mother gave birth to me, she sensed that this day was coming soon.

In order not to disturb the father, the mother could only leave the father with a hard heart and return to the clan to ask the patriarch for guilt.

At that time, she had already married and had given birth to a child, and it was naturally impossible for the patriarch to force her mother to marry Chang Xuan.

However, the mother's move can be regarded as a violation of the clan rules, so it ...... Until now, he is under house arrest.

When we got married, my mother felt something, and she didn't hesitate to spend her cultivation to send me to marry ......

When she said this, Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help but feel sad from her heart, and she cried silently in Gu Ming's arms.

"It's okay, aren't we here......"

Gu Ming rubbed his wife's hair and comforted softly.

"But they ...... They wouldn't let me see my mother......"

"What?" As soon as he heard this, Gu Ming was immediately annoyed: "Let's go, let's go to the patriarch to make a reason!" ”

"Hmm!"

When her husband came, Nie Xiaoqian also had a backbone, got up and walked out with her husband.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the hospital, I saw the old woman standing outside with a cold face.

"Grandma~"

Nie Xiaoqian hurriedly stepped forward and called.

Gu Ming hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward to call grandma, after all, this is also a matter of course.

"You're going to the patriarch?"

"Yes, grandma, Xiaoqian asked the patriarch to release her mother and let her mother go home to reunite with her father."

"Alas, you stupid girl, how can things be as simple as you think!"

The old man sighed, and his always cold face finally showed a trace of love......
