Lingzhi has always been calm, so when he heard them talk about things, he listened silently and carefully.

After listening to Lingzhi for a while, I finally figured out that the person known as Aunt Painted Spirit liked to study the secret art of the mechanism, and had read all the books on the secret art of the mechanism in the village about ten years ago.

More than ten years ago, the painting spirit was no longer a little girl, but she has been alone and unmarried, I heard that when she was young, there were many good Ah Lang in the village to show her goodwill, but she refused, saying that she wanted to study the art of the institution and was not interested in the love of children.

If you don't want to get married and have children, it's nothing, the Yao people are not very good at doing things like cows don't drink water and force their heads, at most ask their minds, if they are firm and don't say that the gambling component is there, they will go.

It's just that this painting spirit is not only determined, but she also plans to leave Qianjiatong and go to the rivers and lakes to learn art.

This caused an uproar in Qianjiatong, although the Yao people are a little xenophobic, but there are also people walking in the rivers and lakes, but it is too rare for the Yao family girl who is not good at martial arts and is not married to go to the rivers and lakes to worship art.

Naturally, the family of the painting spirit could not agree, and for this matter, the painting spirit and the family also had a quarrel, and finally made trouble to the grandmother and aunt.

"Painting Ling, if you really want to go out to see and see, wait for Longkou and Xuxin to come back after a while, and let them take you out with you."

The aunt saw that the painting was strong and refused to give in, so she had to persuade her.

"Auntie, I want to go by myself, they can go by themselves, why can't I go by myself. Besides, they want to fight and kill, I just need to learn the trick, we have to take a different path, how to be together! ”

The painting spirit did not agree to walk with others, and insisted on going alone.

"Painting Ling, the people of the rivers and lakes will not let you see that you are a daughter, and they will even bully you. And your martial arts are shallow and you can't be close to yourself, and the skills of the organs you know may not be able to protect you, so do you want to go to the rivers and lakes alone? ”

Grandma looked at the painting spirit with a disobedient face and slowly opened her mouth.

"Grandma, I know it's not easy to walk the rivers and lakes, but I don't want to stick to this, I want to go to the outside world to see, I want to be an excellent mechanic."

The painting spirit bowed down, hoping that Grandma could fulfill her.

Grandma just looked at this girl, and said that she and Huaqing were often around her when they were children, but now they can't keep any of them.

"Since you are so persistent, it will be fulfilled for you. Go ahead, this trip may be a lot of hardship, and you have to go through it slowly. ”

After a long while, Grandma finally spoke.

"Thank you, Grandma!"

When the painting spirit heard the answer he was expecting, his heart blossomed.

"It's just that, painting the spirit, you have to swear here, keep your heart and never marry a foreign man"

Grandma's words changed, and she was a little more violent.

"Draw a spirit and swear that you will never marry a foreign man!"

Although she was a little surprised by Grandma's request, the painting spirit still made a solemn oath.

"Good."

Grandma nodded.

Since then, this painting spirit who is keen on the art of mechanism has been wandering the rivers and lakes alone, and no one knows what good and bad she has encountered in the rivers and lakes. Even for nearly a year in between, Qianjiatong did not receive a letter from the painting spirit.

In the fourth year after the painting spirit left Qianjiatong, she went back to Qianjiatong, at that time, the painting spirit had already studied under the famous organ master Chun Yutong, and was more beneficial in the art of the mechanism.

She didn't stay in the stockade for long, and she came back this time mainly to improve the defense mechanism of the stockade, and this time the idea of the mechanism was mainly modeled after the proud work of her fellow brother Chun Yuhu.

"I see, then she should be another name for walking outside."

Xie Jue suddenly realized when he heard this.

The painting spirit should be Tian Lan, a female mechanic who has been very famous for thousands of machines in the past few years.

It's no wonder that when I first came to explore Qianjiatong at night, I found that the mechanism here was so similar to Chunfeng Valley, and it turned out that Chun Yu taught him.

"Qianjimen Tian Lan, who has been very famous in recent years, has designed a lot of small and delicate mechanisms."

Xie Jue briefly introduced.

When Tian Lan joined Qianjimen, she was already very old, but she was quite talented and smart, so Chun Yutong was willing to accept her exceptionally at that time. Although she has little experience in making large mechanisms, she has a little more talent for small objects.

In the past few years, the Tibetan spirit boxes used in the secret letters in the rivers and lakes are all from Tian Lan's hands, and his fame has gradually increased.

Before leaving, she told her people that this time she might lose contact for a while, because she was going to go to the northwest with her master, and even to Mobei, and she was afraid that she would not be able to send the letter back in time.

Since then, the letters have been intermittent, often without a letter for several months, and this situation has lasted for about three years.

Then suddenly one day the painting spirit returned to the village again, only this time she came back to tell the people a message.

Hua Qing died, at the hands of the ghost knife Shen Fengyi.

This incident aroused the anger of the Yao people, although Huaqing had broken away from Qianjiatong, but she still had the blood of the Yao people in her body after all.

So, Qianjiatong invited the Shaking Light Star Lord of the Seven Star Tower to solve Shen Fengyi.

After this matter was resolved, the painting spirit left Qianjiatong again, and this time after the painting spirit left, he never came back, not only that, but for nearly a year, the painting spirit did not even bring back a word.

The reason why I'm talking about the accident with the painting spirit now is because some time ago, Xuxin came back from a trip and brought back very bad news.

The painting spirit and the people in her sect were suddenly hunted down by the Hades Palace, and there were already rumors in the rivers and lakes that their lives were not guaranteed.

"It's also strange, unless someone asks for it or for the purpose of studying the mechanical arts, their division has always rarely left the Thousand Machine Gate. And they have never been very involved in the fights and killings in the rivers and lakes, and basically they will not offend people. In addition, many people in the rivers and lakes and even people in the public gate will look for them to make organs, so they get most of the courtesies on the rivers and lakes, but I didn't expect that this time they would actually offend the Hades Palace and be hunted down. ”

Xie Jue frowned and analyzed, speaking of which, they also have some old friendship between Chunfeng Valley and Qianjimen, if there is a chance, they should help them.

"Then it seems that Liu Qi and Yin Feicheng know something."

Ling Yao's tone was calm.

"Them?"

Xie Jue didn't understand a little.

"When they enter the village, they are entrusted by the spirit of painting."

Ling Yao said lightly what she had heard that night.

"Then they shouldn't know that the Gu Yin Patriarch can't see them now, so they came to test us."

But then, what do they want?

How did they receive the entrustment of the painting spirit?
