Chapter 209: Soul Search

When he arrived at the streets of Manchester City, the imperial capital of Amaterasu, Huai Fan unexpectedly saw an acquaintance, Xiang Shen, and immediately sent Ji Yunye to chase after him.

Ji Yunye was thinking about what excuse to avoid him and then ask for a mirror of the world, but he didn't expect that he would fulfill his wish without much talk, and he suddenly became overjoyed, and casually made an appointment with him and went to the palace.

Chasing closer, Huai Fan used fifty percent of his strength to slap Xiang Shen's shoulder, but he didn't see him dodge in any way, but he shot an empty shot and directly fell a dog to chew.

In order to stop being pointed at and judged like an exhibit, he quickly got up, pulled the elephant to a secluded place and reprimanded: "Okay, I haven't seen you for fifty years, and your skills have grown a lot." Now that you don't say goodbye and don't allow me to vent my grievances, and you cause me to lose face in public, what kind of friend are you? ”

Xiang Shen's face was full of jokes: "I thought you would be in retreat for 50 years, but I didn't expect you to look like a hairy boy." It seems that you will never be able to reach my back. ”

Huai Fan hooked his shoulder and said, "Not only can I see your back, but I can also hook your shoulder." You old man who doesn't keep your word, go drink with me. ”

As he spoke, he dragged Xiang Shen forward, but suddenly realized that something was wrong, and his eyes flickered, and he noticed that there was a beautiful woman standing beside him, and their hands were actually holding hands. His mouth opened wide in astonishment, and he didn't close it for a while.

The woman couldn't help but cover her lips and smile, and said deeply, "This friend of yours is really funny." ”

Xiang Shen stretched out his hand, put his mouth back in place, and said, "Open it for a while, and the saliva will flow down." I know that if Lian is beautiful, she won't be fascinated like this, right? ”

Huai Fan seemed to return to his soul at this time, and said with a "bah": "Am I that kind of lustful person?" I'm not fascinated by the beauty of my thoughts. I was scared by you. You old monster who has been abstinent for more than a thousand years suddenly fell in love, and I really can't stand it. When the words fell, he seemed to remember something, and leaned into his ear and said, "Your boy body that has been kept for more than a thousand years can't be broken, right?" ”

He was startled and said something amazing, which made Xiangshen subconsciously look at Lianruo. Seeing that her face was flushed, he couldn't help coughing twice in embarrassment: "I said Huaifan is old-fashioned, can you not be so old and improper?" ”

Huai Fan laughed and said, "You two are blushing, you must have been said by me." Let's find a place to drink and listen to your story of sexual encounters by the way. By the way, which restaurant did that kid meet me at just now? ”

Xiang Shen said: "Yaxian Restaurant." ”

"Okay, it turns out that you have already heard our conversation, so you will be on guard, otherwise I will definitely not miss that palm."

Xiang Shen smiled and said, "It should be so." ”

"What does it mean to be so? You made it clear to me. ”

Xiang Shen shook his head helplessly: "Since you have to break it, then I can only say that you are welcome to challenge at any time." ”

"That's what you said? Then don't blame me for being rude. ”

So along the way, Huai Fan racked his brains to try his best to make a successful sneak attack, but all ended in failure, not only did not take the slightest advantage, but was repeatedly countered by Xiangshen. He said in annoyance: "Except for the time when I lost a little bit more fifty years ago, we were on par every time we fought in the past, why did you suddenly become so powerful?" ”

Xiang Shen smiled: "Don't you see that I have always been hidden? If you hadn't shown your hand 50 years ago, how would you have been motivated to retreat for 50 years? ”

Speaking of this, Huai Fan became even more angry: "Since you are not afraid of losing face to me, why did you fly away on the day I left the customs?" ”

While talking, the three of them had already arrived at the private room on the second floor of De Yaxian Restaurant, and when the wine and food were finished, they told the truth like Shen Fang.

More than 1,000 years ago, Xiang Shen was still a young man who walked the rivers and lakes with martial arts. One day, passing through a mountain forest, he encountered a gang of robbers who were molesting a woman, so he rescued him and ran away with the thief, and thus became attached to the woman. And that woman is Lianruo who stole away from Qiantong Mountain to the nether realm.

In fact, Lian Ruo can solve those people without his help, she just thinks it's funny and acting, who would have thought that she would encounter a hero saving beauty. Then they traveled together all the way, acted chivalrous and righteous, and became a chivalrous couple who envied others.

However, the good times did not last long, and a year later, Lianruo was arrested by the emperor and sent back. Before parting, Xiangshen asked her how she could see her again. She only said two words: cultivate immortals.

He thought that she had let herself cultivate immortals so that she could find herself one day, so he obediently did so. But time passed day by day, month by month, year by year, and she never came to him. He thought that she was obstructed by her family, maybe she was already a human wife and mother, and she could only miss it in this life, so he buried her love and only focused on cultivating immortals.

It wasn't until hundreds of years later that he came across a strange cave during a meditation and saw a mysterious forbidden art recorded on the rock wallβ€”soul searching. This is a powerful supernatural power that goes against the way of heaven, and if this technique is refined, the mind can freely travel through the Three Realms and find anyone they want to seek, even if he or she has been reincarnated.

At that moment, the desire to find her sprung up again, and he cultivated according to the method recorded on the rock wall. However, this is not something that can be achieved overnight, and it also requires a strong cultivation to cooperate. Only when the Dao method has been cultivated to the highest level can one freely manipulate this technique.

On the day Huai Fan came out, he finally broke through the last layer of the exercises, wandered into the Three Realms with his mind, and soon found Lianruo. I didn't expect her to be the same as before. At that time, she stood in front of Lethe with a sad face, wanting to jump but not jumping, and seemed unwilling in despair. In a hurry, he Tengyun searched for him, and when he used this technique, the golden light of the dormitory he was in was so prosperous that his disciples mistakenly thought that he had soared away.

Huai Fan sighed: "No wonder you haven't grown a beard for hundreds of years, it turns out that you look younger when you reunite with a beautiful woman." But more than a thousand years have passed, and you have changed from that hairy young man to an old guy with white hair, and the girl is still so young and beautiful. ”

Xiang Shen frowned slightly: "Do I look old?" Why did Lianruo recognize me at a glance? ”

At this time, I heard Lian Ruo say: "If you don't look at the hair color, you look like you're in your thirties, not old at all." Huai Fan Xian is really the same, if it weren't for the fact that his hair and beard were all white, he would still be very young just looking at his face. ”

This made Huai Fan very useful, even if he asked someone to find a shaver to help him shave his beard, he made Xiangshen frown, and said that he was really not used to looking at this too young face, and Lian Ruo couldn't help but smile and praise his good looks.

After Huaifan finished tossing his face, Ji Yunye had successfully retrieved the mirror from Hua Feiyan and came here to meet him. I didn't expect Hua Mian to be not bad at all, the mirror was really stolen by Hua Feiyan, and the hiding place was in the palace to the west of the palace, and there was a master guarding it. When she learned of her intentions, she took out the mirror without saying a word, saying that she didn't need it now.

After seeing Huai Fan, Ji Yunye almost didn't recognize him, and bluntly said that this would lose his original respectful demeanor. If it weren't for Lianruo's comfort, Huai Fan would have almost glued his beard back again.

After Huai Fan introduced them, he remembered to ask Lianruo why he ran to the Lechuan River.

Lian Ruo revealed her grievances and grievances with the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor. After that war, she left the heavenly realm in despair and ran to the Lethe River, wanting to jump down and forget all grievances and hatreds, but because of her worries, she hesitated for many days and never made up her mind. On that day, she looked back on her life and tried to find a trace of beauty worthy of her nostalgia in addition to Yan'er. So she thought of the encounter more than a hundred years ago, and remembered Xiangshen. The year she was with him was the happiest time of her life, and it was a truly pure joy. She suddenly wanted to see him again. But it has been more than a hundred years, more than a thousand years have passed for the mortal world, and he doesn't know how many lives he has been reincarnated, and he is afraid that he has already forgotten about her.

However, what he didn't expect was that he suddenly appeared in front of her. At that moment she thought she was hallucinating, and it wasn't until he called her name that she knew he had really appeared. She burst into tears, then frantically threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Moved to learn that he had been working hard for hundreds of years to find out his whereabouts, she decided to put everything aside and stay with him. Knowing that he had found herself using soul searching, she offered to ask him to help find Yan'er. He immediately agreed, but because this technique was extremely depleted, and he had to rest for at least a month before he could use it again after using it, he did not immediately look for Yan'er, and today he was preparing to find a place to stay before using this technique, and at the same time let Lianruo protect him to prevent alarming others.

Huai Fan originally planned to wait for Xiang Shen to find Yan'er and then take Ji Yunye back to Danyang Mountain, but he couldn't resist Ji Yunye's urging, so he had to invite Shen and Lianruo to each other: "Two days later, it will be the wedding of my favorite apprentice and apprentice grandson, do you want to go back to the mountain with me to drink a happy wine?" ”

Xiang Shen said curiously: "Which apprentice?" Which apprentice? ”

"It's Meng Ya and Nian'er."

Xiang Shen's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "The two of them are actually together?" I had long seen that the girl liked Meng Ya, but I didn't expect the two of them to be really together. When the words fell, he complained, "Why didn't you say such a happy thing earlier?" ”

Huai Fan blew his beard, but it was empty, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed why he impulsively shaved the beard he had worked so hard to grow. Without a beard to blow, he could only stare and say, "Is it too late for me to say now?" Do you go or don't go? ”

"Go! How can a girl get married without me? ”

"What about gifts?"

"I am the greatest gift, and she must be happier to see me than any other gift."

"Hey, stingy!"

"You say I'm stingy, so what gift did you prepare?"

"My wedding for them is the greatest gift."

"Hey, you're still their master and ancestor, aren't you more stingy!"

The meal ended in the midst of the talk, and several people immediately looked for a place where no one was there and drove the auspicious clouds towards Danyang Mountain.
