Chapter 388: Picturesque Tianwai Village
The number of houses in Tianwai Village is not large, roughly calculated, there are less than a hundred households, but the atmosphere in the village makes everyone feel very comfortable.
There are no disputes here, and the residents of the village have good-natured smiles on their faces when they talk to each other.
Even the cats and dogs in the village were lying on the ground and on the thatched roofs, and there was no rejection of the entry of Lu Xiao and other outsiders.
Lu Xiao wasn't sure if this small village in the fairy world was related to the Peach Blossom Spring described by the Eastern Jin Dynasty poet Tao Yuanming, but when he saw this peaceful and peaceful scene, the first thing he thought of was the Peach Blossom Spring that he had learned when he was young.
Since it is known as the Peach Paradise, it is natural that there are many peach blossom trees planted in Tianwai Village.
The village seems to maintain the same climate all year round, and the peach blossoms in full bloom never seem to have withered.
A beautiful peach forest filled with pink and white encompasses the entire Tianwai Village, and this small village looks like it is in a picture scroll.
"What a beautiful ......"
Chen Jingqiu's eyes couldn't help but show a look of fascination, he likes poetry, painting and landscapes, and he has no resistance to this beautiful natural scenery.
Even Yu'er, who used to be very arrogant, sighed and said: "It would be nice if I could live in this environment in the future, but it's a pity that ......"
Yu'er knew that this good wish was just a luxury for the time being.
Now that the land of Shenzhou has signs of impending troubled times, with Zhang Lie's ambition, the Tuoba tribe is likely to be swept into the tide of troubled times and cannot extricate themselves.
"Hey~"
Aru happily swayed her upper body from side to side, and the praise of outsiders for her hometown made her proud.
"Please come with me, whether you can say that the help of the immortals depends on your eloquence and determination."
Just like Aru reminded before, not all of the people living in Tianwai Village are immortals, and there are many strange races that have never been seen in the outside world.
There are weirdos with hair all over their bodies and can't even see their appearances clearly, and there are also one-armed and three-eyed aliens who are polite.
Of course, the largest proportion of the population is still the human race, and the humans living in Tianwai Village are more beautiful than those from the outside world, and they can be said to be handsome men and beautiful women.
On the way to lead the way, Ah Ru kindly introduced to the people with surprised faces: "That's the Mao people and the Qi Qiu tribe, they were once members of the tribe under the command of Emperor Yan, and they were exiled to Tianwai Village for some reason. ”
'Mao? ’
Lu Xiao's brows furrowed slightly, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere." ’
Without waiting for Lu Xiao to recall in detail, Ah Ru had already led them to the largest courtyard in Tianwai Village.
"Grandpa! Aru is back! ”
Aru's cheerful call was quickly answered, and an old and gentle voice came from inside the house: "Okay~ My precious granddaughter, have you picked today's food?" ”
"Tu~Tu~"
With the rhythmic sound of a cane on the ground, a kind old man slowly walked out of the house.
"Huh?"
The half-squinted old man's eyes widened slightly when he saw Lu Xiao and his party, and there was a sense of scrutiny in his eyes.
"Hehe~"
The old man patted the back of Aru, who threw himself into his arms, looked at Lu Xiao and the others meaningfully and said, "30 years...... Or 40 years? I didn't expect that without anyone to lead you, you would be able to enter the Taoyuan Wonderland, which is almost completely closed to the outside world. ”
"Anyway, it's a guest."
The old man gestured to him in a friendly manner: "Everyone, just call me Ran Weng, please come in with me, settle down first, and then we will talk in detail." ”
Ran Weng's courtyard can be said to be the most luxurious mansion in Tianwai Village, there are many guest rooms in the courtyard, he should be the immortal in Tianwai Village who is responsible for receiving outsiders.
Instructed Ah Ru to take the guests to his own room, and then Weng walked slowly to the main hall with a cane, and after waiting for a few people to settle down, he said his purpose for entering the Taoyuan Wonderland.
……
"I see, gluttony......"
After Chen Jingqiu took the lead in saying his intentions, Ran Weng stroked his beard and muttered for a moment: "Chen Gongzi, as your master said, I can indeed subdue the gluttony of ancient demonic beasts. ”
"But the fairy world has the rules of the fairy world, and without permission, we can't leave the Taoyuan Fairy Realm at will and enter the Xuanyuan Realm where you live."
Chen Jingqiu, who was anxious to rescue his master, anxiously asked, "May I ask Ran Weng, how do we get permission?" ”
Ran Weng shook his head and said, "This matter is up to the high-level immortals, I can only submit your application to it, as for whether it can be approved...... To tell you the truth, I don't know. ”
Chen Jingqiu's topic was at an impasse for the time being, and he could only wait patiently until he received further answers.
"So, what about you?"
Ran Weng turned his gaze to Lu Xiao: "Since you are only traveling together by chance, what is the purpose of Your Excellency coming to Taoyuan Wonderland?" ”
Lu Xiao didn't beat around the bush, and said categorically: "The Red Crossing Star is about to cut through the sky, in order to repair the traces of the sky, we need to collect the ten ancient artifacts and arrange the Void Array and the Lost Array." ”
"It is said that the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Pangu Axe are stored in this fairyland, and this is my intention."
"What?!"
Ran Weng was startled, he hurriedly frowned and stretched out his left hand, his fingers pinching as if he was calculating something.
"Sure enough, counting the time, it's almost time for the Red Demon Star to arrive."
As an immortal, Ran Weng naturally has his own intelligence channels, and after a little calculation, he came to a conclusion, and Lu Xiao did not talk nonsense.
Lu Xiao saw the solemn look on Ran Weng's face, and said while the iron was hot: "This time the Red Demon Star is not as good as before, and the Western Demon King Satan has already sent his subordinates into Shenzhou to lurk in advance. ”
"If the traces of the sky can't be repaired smoothly, the Western Demon Race will take advantage of the opportunity of the Shenzhou enchantment being torn apart by the Red Crossing Star to invade on a large scale, and then the human world will be ruined, and I also ask the old immortals to guide a clear path for the future of Shenzhou."
"Hmmm......"
Ran Weng nodded with a heavy expression: "This matter is very important, and it is not for me to decide alone." ”
"Please go back to your room and wait for a while, and I'll relay the news you brought to the top."
As soon as the words fell, Ran Weng's figure suddenly became blurred, leaving only an afterimage in place, and he himself was brought out of the courtyard by teleportation many times in succession, and there was no trace in the blink of an eye.
Don't look at Ran Weng's old appearance, in fact, his combat power can beat most people in the world.
After clearing the Trace of Heaven, Lu Xiao was very curious about Ran Weng's identity, and after many searches, he finally learned Ran Weng's true identity.
Ran Weng's real name is He Ran, one of the protagonists of Xuanyuan Sword 2, a swordsman with a full sense of justice.
There is no space in the demon refining pot in Chen Jingqiu's hand, but the owner of this space has long been sealed, and this person is the self-proclaimed red pine seed in the pot immortal.
He Ran once worked with his partners to quell the conspiracy planned by the Immortal in the Pot, and cultivated into an immortal after the story of the second generation, and since then he has settled in Tianwai Village.
"Aru?"
Just as Lu Xiao was recalling He Ran's origin, a gentle female voice came from outside the door, and Ah Ru, who was sitting on the chair and shaking her head, immediately lit up, jumped down from the chair and rushed out of the door.
"Grandma! You're back! ”
A picturesque young woman walked in through the door, followed by a squinting man in a blue scholar's uniform.
"My good granddaughter."
The beautiful woman who was called a grandmother by Aru rubbed her face affectionately with Aru: "Have you listened to grandpa at home?" ”
"Hmmm! Aru is very obedient and helps his grandfather to pick food in the field every day! ”
Lu Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the two men and women, "Could it be them?" ’
