The boat sails leisurely through the meandering river.

Nie Yan stood at the tail of the light boat, at this time, not to mention the small path realm, even the long mountains that hid the small path realm were gradually out of sight.

A hook of the waning moon, the sky is full of stars, and the sound of water is murmuring.

The red dust in the world has only been seen in memory, and when I think of it in memory, it is like yellowed calligraphy and painting, and there are some untruths in the past.

At night.

The mountains are tranquil and the water is tranquil.

But what lurks in this tranquility? No one knows.

"Brother Xiaodao, let's sleep first. The next section of the waterway is not something that people in the debut world should see. Although the rules are not very strict, I have always abided by these 'immortal' words, Brother Xiaodao, don't embarrass the old man. Just when Nie Yan's thoughts were far away, the old boatman opened his mouth and pleaded with Nie Yan.

Nie Yan withdrew his gaze from the small dao realm, nodded silently, and walked into the small cabin of the flat boat.

Remembering Master's words, he said to the old boatman, "Old man, can I get off the boat halfway?" ”

"Little brother, as long as you don't get off the boat on this waterway, it's okay. But you have to think clearly, my boat, there are only two points that come and go. This trip is to stop at Wujiawan. The place was already very remote, and it took two days to go to the nearest county seat, and the best carriage. If this is halfway through, the old boatman has a good heart, and he can't help but remind Nie Yan.

"It's okay, I have my own arrangements." Nie Yan thanked the old boatman and lightly rejected the old boatman's kindness.

"Anyway, you are the disciple of that immortal, how can you be afraid of that barren mountains and mountains. The little brother just needs to talk about a place, and the old man stops the boat. "The old boatman has been ferrying for people in the small Taoist world for many years, if he has a natural vision and understands the things of 'immortals', mortals don't need to ask more.

Nie Yan thanked the old boat man for his neatness, said a place at the moment, thanked him again, and fell asleep in the cramped cabin.

But I don't know if it's because life has begun to change since this day, and there is some unease.

In the slightly swaying cabin, it turned out to be a sleepless night.

It wasn't until it was almost early in the morning that the old boatman woke Nie Yan up, saying that he had arrived at the place Nie Yan had designated.

This place is a place where the water flows back, quite dangerous, above the backwater bay, there is a lonely mountain that is not high or low, because it is in a deserted place, so this mountain is called the nameless mountain.

As soon as the boat came, Nie Yan felt the coldness of the water this time.

Feel it carefully, but it is some souls who have fallen into the water, and it is normal to gather in this place of the water, all of them are crying and crying, because they died in vain, they can't be reincarnated, such a desolate place, how to find that substitute? The way of deception 'escape' can only linger in this place, and gradually accumulate some resentment.

When they saw that some people were here at this time, they were all very excited, and they all pounced.

But what kind of character is Nie Yan? The only disciple of the master in the small path realm, who has been practicing for many years, and has continuous resources, even ten middle-aged men who are full of blood and qi can't compare, how can these unjust souls get close?

As for the old boatman, it is even more strange, those unjust ghosts and ghosts will be close to each other, and there will be a slight light on their bodies, stabbing those unjust ghosts and ghosts 'wow' and screaming, ordinary people can't hear it, they can only hear the yin wind crying even more powerfully.

This scene made Nie Yan slightly surprised, could it be that this boat man is also a cultivator?

But after careful induction, I found out what magic weapon this boat man might be carrying, but it was not good to ask too much.

"Little brother, the old man can only send you here. I'm going to get out of here, I'm not comfortable here. "The old boat man is more or less sensitive.

Nie Yan remained silent, this kind of thing must not be explained to ordinary people, and he was about to leave as soon as he hugged his fist and thanked the boatman.

Suddenly, he remembered something in his heart, and called the old boatman again.

The old boat man was about to hold the boat and leave, but when he heard Nie Yan's call, he stabilized the light boat again, and waited for Nie Yan to speak.

"Dare to ask the old man, if I want to return to the land where I came one day, how can I find you?" This is the question in Nie Yan's heart, when he said goodbye, the master explained a lot of words, but he didn't explain these trivialities, could it be that he forgot it?

The old boatman also showed a strange look on his face, but he still said: "This is simple, as long as you go to the ordinary wharf in Wujiawan, in any place in the thatched hut next to it, as long as it is not too secret, carve a small Taoist mark, we will naturally appear when we see it." ”

Nie Yan said 'um', he naturally knew the mark of the small dao realm, hesitated a little, and then said, "In case the kid is delayed for a long time, then?" ”

The old boat man laughed a few times and said: "Little brother, I'm too worried, don't say that I am mortals, even if I don't become immortals, immortals have a long life." My family has been supporting the 'immortals' for generations, and they have also gained a lot of benefits. I don't do this business, so naturally my children and grandchildren will do it. This is already arranged by the 'immortal' Dao elders, and the little brother can rest assured. ”

Nie Yan nodded, and the old boatman wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end, he still hugged his fists and said goodbye to the old boatman.

How could he possibly know that the old boat man wondered why the master didn't tell him about this way of returning? In the past, whether or not they could return, they would always be informed about it.

Unless- it is affirmed that Nie Yan will not return to the Xiaodao Realm.

This parting was originally a permanent secret.

Nie Yan didn't know this, but stood in this windy backwater bay, watching the old boatman's light boat gradually disappear, and a trace of loneliness welled up in his heart.

How does he know now that he has been so lonely for a lot of his life?

When Qingzhou's figure disappeared completely, Nie Yan moved towards the mountain, and those unjust ghosts in the backwater bay were somewhat unwilling to keep up, with the aura of fear of Nie Yan and the incomparably vigorous qi and blood.

Looking at the confused and hesitant faces of these unjust souls, Nie Yan's heart softened, and he was originally ready to pinch the trick to clear this place, but he also let go.

"If you want to be reincarnated, don't you think there is no other way but to be a stand-in? There are many ways, if there is no one to help, then help yourself. There are more or less ships coming and going in this water, and there are also underwater creatures. Whether it's protecting others or saving the lives of innocent underwater creatures. Accumulate more yin virtue, and you can leave the day you can, maybe there will be unimaginable benefits. If you look for that stand-in and reincarnate to be that beast, would it be good? Don't miss the opportunity to be a human being, God has a line at all times, even if it is a ghost, you can do good. ”

When those unjust souls heard these words, they suddenly began to wail, and they all bowed down at Nie Yan and bowed down.

Nie Yan didn't pay attention to it, just turned around and walked towards the mountain, but it was a pity that these unjust souls were not enlightened, people and ghosts had different paths, if ordinary people had no special methods, or were related to these unjust souls, they would not be able to communicate with them, and they would not be able to hear them clearly.

As a cultivator, he should accumulate this virtue, and it is better to think about it than to kill, provided that these unjust souls have the heart to listen to him.

Nie Yan, who is like fire, is still holding a soft heart when he first enters the rivers and lakes.

When it comes to his day, Huo Nie is afraid that he will never learn to be merciful, and he is afraid that he will only show mercy today, and he will become a disaster for others in the future.

At this time, Nie Yan naturally didn't know his future path, he just concentrated on climbing the mountain, and wondered, how could there be a faint path up the mountain in this nameless mountain that was almost inhabited?

But on second thought, since Master also knew about this place, it was not strange for someone to come here to worship.

Having stayed in the mountain range of the Xiaodao Realm for a long time, climbing the mountain was as ordinary for Nie Yan as eating and drinking, and his footsteps were extremely fast.

Within half an hour, he had climbed to the top of this nameless mountain.

It's flat, like a dam, it's not big, it's sparsely populated with some trees, and in spring, the grass is green and the wildflowers are in full bloom, and this lawn is very good, because the trees are sparse and don't block the view.

As far as the eye can see, the river flows at the foot of the mountain, winding towards the mountains, and the direction of the trail is beautiful.

Nie Yan definitely didn't come to see any scenery, he naturally came here for a purpose.

He only stood a little, made out his bearings, and walked towards the edge of the mountaintop, which was also facing the trail boundary.

If you look closely, you will find that there is a bulging mountain bag on the edge, which has been covered with green grass, and if you don't look closer, you won't notice this place at all, let alone know that this is a tomb.

Nie Yan stood in front of the tomb, silent,

The wind blew through the young man's black hair, flying and fluttering, just like the flying aura on Nie Yan, who had just entered the rivers and lakes in this prosperous age.

The small path world is invisible, and can only follow this direction, standing for endless years, giving infinite longing eyes.

After a long silence, Nie Yan finally knelt down and bowed to the tomb a few times.

"Senior, I know your heart. On another day, if I can return to the Xiaodao realm, I will definitely bring back the relics of my predecessors with my own hands, and fulfill the wishes of my predecessors. Nie Yan said seriously word by word to this nameless tomb.

Naturally, he knew the heart of this nameless man.

This is the closest place to the secret waters, and the closest is the water where his boat man said, and he can't even see out of the trail realm, and even he can only hide in the cabin and sleep.

I can't go back, I can only choose the closest, this is a kind of persistent thoughts, right?

Nie Yan also remembered his days in the mountains.

Practice, growth, the company of the master under the green lamp, accompanied by the fragrant food, the endless mist shrouded like a fairyland.

Quickly put away these thoughts of yourself, how can you start thinking before you really leave? Men must have something to do in the world.

So, Nie Yan said to the nameless tomb again: "If Nie Yan can't return to that small realm, he must inherit the unfinished work of his predecessors, kill demons and demons, and not let what he has learned be disappointed." Therefore, please also ask the seniors to fulfill and give the sword and Nie Yan. ”

As he spoke, Nie Yan stood up and began to observe the area around the tomb, walking cautiously.
