231 The first

"Palace Master, Miao Qing, the apprentice of Elder Taishang Yujing Zhenren, came to pay a visit." Shouyu reported outside the Four Palaces.

Then the voice of the master of the Miaochang Palace came from the hall, "Take Senior Sister Miaoqing to the ancestral hall to sit for a while." ”

……

The ancestral hall courtyard is actually the place where each generation of Lianzhen Palace Palace masters entertain guests, and after Nanxing sat down and drank two cups of tea, the Miaochang Palace Lord was late.

"I didn't expect my sister to be so young. However, to be able to win the favor of Uncle Yujing, there must be something extraordinary, I don't know what Uncle Yujing commands, and how many days does Senior Sister Miaoqing plan to stay? ”

Nanxing sneered in his heart after hearing this, it seems that this Miaochang Palace Master is not too welcoming to him, and after thinking about it, he is now the same generation as the Miaochang Palace Master, and he is so young, if he stays in the Lianzhen Palace, I am afraid that the position of the next Palace Master will fall on his head.

Nan Xing, who didn't have any interest in the position of palace master, got up and saluted back, "Master only said that she was going to cultivate in Qiyun Mountain, and she should not be disturbed if she had nothing to do." As for me, I was originally a person of red dust, and I didn't plan to live in the Refining True Palace for a long time. ”

"Senior sister is not in the Refining True Palace, so where are you going to practice?" The master of the Miaochang Palace can sit on the throne of the palace master, not to mention the cultivation for the time being, this ability to observe words and colors will definitely stand out. She could see that what Nanxing said was not a lie, but she didn't understand Yujing Zhenren's intention to suddenly accept apprentices, as well as the thoughts of this cheap junior sister in front of her.

"My family has an old relationship with Yujing Zhenren, only because of some accidents, I need to use the identity of the female crown of the Lianzhen Palace, so I asked Yujing Zhenren to accept me as an apprentice, I myself don't have much interest in cultivation, after leaving the imperial city, I will resume the dress of a layman." Nanxing just erased the main part, but that's basically what happened. This is also the rhetoric that Nanxing has prepared for a long time.

The Miaochang Palace Lord looked at Nanxing deeply, not knowing what she thought in her heart, and hurriedly changed into a smile, "Since this is the case, then the poor Dao is not reluctant to junior sister." In a few days, His Majesty will invite the poor Dao into the palace to give lectures, and the junior sister is in the temple these days, so I will greet you from the poor Dao's apprentice Jingzhen. ”

……

The master of the Miaochang Palace asked her apprentice Jing Zhen to arrange a quiet single room for Nanxing. Nanxing is also exempted from participating in the morning and evening classes every day, and as for the three meals a day, Nanxing still needs to go to the canteen.

Jing Zhen was quiet and elegant when she heard this name, but she didn't know that Nan Xing had no interest in cultivation, and she had beaten Nan Xing several times in the past few days, and she clearly felt that she must be the next palace master of the Refining Palace.

Nanxing didn't care about such a fool to explain more, anyway, she planned to stay here for half a month, and then leave. This half month is also mainly in the Scripture Pavilion of the Lianzhen Palace.

She is quite interested in medical divination and astrology, but in 3700, these things have been in decline for a long time, and the only mages who have been passed down are also very arrogant, and most of them have been recruited by the families of the upper three districts and treated as guests. With the identity and status of Nanxing in 3700 years, it is impossible to see a mage.

It may be that Nanxing has been to several worlds, and she feels that she can quickly remember everything she reads now, and her comprehension skills are also improving. Nanxing also asked the black cat before, and the black cat said a bunch of mysterious words, and finally summed up a sentence, which means that constantly going to different spaces and times will indeed improve the strength of Nanxing's soul. And the external manifestation of this improvement is the strengthening of memory, perception, etc.

In half a month, Nanxing read the books in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, in fact, there are some more precious books, all of which were personally put away by the Miaochang Palace Master, and it was impossible for her to show Nanxing this part, even if she was the palace master, she was only granted part of the access by the previous palace master a year before she succeeded to the throne. It can be said that these are the essence of the Refining True Palace, and it is precisely because of this that Yujing Zhenren has not read these books, and she can still have today's cultivation, she definitely has a superb talent in cultivation.

……

After leaving Lianzhen Palace, Nanxing found an inn in the Imperial City Jinling Mansion, replaced the dazzling Dao robe and Dao crown, and put on a neat chivalrous dress.

The reason why I want to do this is because during the half month that Nanxing was in the Refining True Palace, there was another hidden sect of the previous dynasty on the rivers and lakes that was destroyed, and the heavy treasure that was also guarded disappeared. This matter has spread in the rivers and lakes, and there are various versions of the story, even in the teahouse of Jinling Mansion, it is not about the poignant love story of the general and the princess of the previous dynasty, but about the treasure left by the previous dynasty, and a secret about immortality.

Treasure or anything aside, a secret about immortality is very concerning. No one in the world can resist the temptation of immortality, and although Nanxing has already experienced a thousand years of life, this rumor still aroused her interest.

Anyway, now even Nanxing shouted before listening to the secret agents of the Rain Pavilion: I am standing in front of you, you see me a little like before. It may not be able to attract people's attention. Nanxing decided to go to the place where the Hidden World Sect was located to take a look, maybe he could see something lively.

Not to mention that Nanxing actually has an adventure factor in his bones, if ordinary people are not for immortality, who would go on this trip to troubled waters.

……

The first hermit sect of the former dynasty that was destroyed was located in the col of a continuous mountain range in the southwest of Daqian. There are few people there, only a sheep intestine path leads to the outside world, if you don't know that this is a hidden sect, judging from their ordinary life, they would think that it is a mountain village and villagers in the mountain col.

The first thing I noticed was a wandering merchant who came here every one to two months with some goods to sell. However, he could only sell goods at the entrance of the village every time, and the villagers did not let him enter the village, and even if there was a sudden rainstorm, they only let the merchant rest in the grass hut at the entrance of the village for one night.

Although the merchant is also surprised that the rules in the village are so big, he has never thought to inquire about it, which is also the survival of their ancestral wandering merchants. When he was a child, his grandfather was no longer a traveling merchant, but inherited by his father, and at that time his grandfather often told him that they were traveling merchants, doing business with people in the mountains, and the most important thing was not to look at what should not be seen, not to listen to what should not be heard, and not to ask what should not be asked.

In the eyes of this old man, those who gather and live in the deep mountains and old forests have ulterior secrets, otherwise why don't they live in good cities and countryside, but have to live in the mountains and forests with such poor conditions? However, these people are also often the most taboo about others asking about them.

Each merchant has his own fixed route, and these villages in the mountains also know the identity of the merchant and the time when they appeared, which is a little trust that has been earned through the efforts of several generations, and cannot be ruined because of their curiosity.

The merchant arrived at the village before noon as usual, and before he approached the merchant, he felt that something was wrong, usually more than a hundred meters away from the village, there would be familiar villagers to pick him up, but today he waited in the same place for a while and still did not see anyone, the merchant tried to shout a few times, except for the deep birdsong, no one responded to him.

The merchant who was carrying the goods tried to follow the route he remembered carefully, when he suddenly heard the cry of a wild beast in front of him, and the sound seemed to be that of a large insect that was not common in the mountains.
