In a mountain stream, a bamboo raft flows down the water.

On the raft sat a scholar in a green shirt, and a child who was only four or five years old.

The two sat on the bamboo raft, in addition to controlling the direction of the bamboo raft, not only did they not paddle to accelerate, but they controlled the bamboo raft not to drift too fast with the current.

A few bubbles suddenly appeared in the water on the side of the bamboo raft, and then a young man in black rushed out of the water wet and landed lightly on the bamboo raft, greedily breathing fresh air.

"If only there was Master's Black Cloud Banner, why use so much effort. The young man in black is naturally Xiao Yan, the mana in his body is running, and the heat on his body vaporizes and instantly dries his clothes.

Zhu Yi said: "It's useless to say that now, although this method is still very slow, but it won't reveal its whereabouts." ”

Xiao Budian jumped up from the raft and said with a smile: "It's my turn." A fierce man plunged into the water and dived to the bottom, Xiao Yan's black iron giant sword was sinking in the sand and stones at the bottom of the water, dragging a straight vertical line under the water from the direction it came from.

Xiao Budian grabbed the black iron giant sword, the heaviness was secondary, the key was that his mana became stagnant, and he said in his heart: "Senior brother, this thing is really weird, although it is cumbersome, but it is really a pity to throw it away, let's take it back to the master to see." ”

Then he lowered the end of the black iron greatsword to the bottom of the water and dragged it among the sand and stones, looking up at the bamboo raft above his head to determine his direction.

Xiao Yan on the bamboo raft smiled bitterly: "I want money and don't want to die, right?"

Zhu Yi smiled slightly: "Master often has a sentence on his lips, called 'There are always more ways than difficulties', although it is superficial, it is very reasonable. ”

The three of them stayed in the mountains and forests for a long time, and finally came up with a way that was not such a way, using the waterway to hide their tracks, but the black iron giant sword was too heavy for the small boat and bamboo raft to carry, so they could only take turns towing underwater.

Just a dozen miles behind the three of them, a team of men and horses was chasing along the stream.

The leading young man is none other than Yu Tian, a descendant of the Yu family, who is also handsome, but his face is extremely gloomy at the moment: "This kind of mountain stream has countless branches, and it is easy to go the wrong way if you chase it like this." ”

He turned and walked to the back of the line, where there was an old man in black with his eyes closed, sitting upright in a chair, carried by several servants of the Yu family with a slide bar.

Yu Tian saluted respectfully: "Elder Yue, please make a move again, this is very important to the family." ”

The old man in black, who was called Yue Lao, didn't move his eyelids, and said lightly: "I'm only responsible for protecting your safety, and I don't care about the rest." ”

Yu Tian frowned slightly, but he didn't dare to persuade again, so he had to step aside, and said in his heart: "It's really unlucky that the family sent this old monster." He didn't dare to really say this, but instead glanced at Yue Lao with a frightened face, and then quickly lowered his head and turned to leave.

The old man in black did not have any mana aura on his body, but he was sitting there with his eyes closed and recuperating, just like a mountain, unshakable.

............

The bamboo raft turned around a river bay, and the field of vision broadened, Zhu Yi stood at the front of the bamboo raft and looked into the distance: "Next, we have to go back to the land, otherwise the direction will be more and more deviated." ”

Xiao Yan nodded, used mana to transmit sound to Xiao Budian, and then jumped ashore with Zhu Yi.

Xiao Budian also dragged the black iron giant sword out of the water, handed the black iron giant sword to Xiao Yan again, and recovered his mana as he walked.

Zhu Yi asked, "Now that there are chasing soldiers behind us, should we still go back to Hengyue Mountain and wait, or go directly to the master?"

Xiao Yan thought about it, and before he could answer, an old voice suddenly sounded: "Young Master Yi has already worshipped someone else as a teacher? This is really not good, Master Hou once said, Young Master Yi, you must not practice martial arts and cultivation until you learn the scriptures and righteousness." ”

The faces of the three Zhu Yi brothers changed at the same time, Zhu Yi's eyebrows trembled, and he called out calmly: "Mr. Tao Er." ”

The person who came was a shriveled and thin old man, who was the second manager of the Xuanji Hou Mansion, Mr. Tao Er.

As Mr. Tao Er appeared, more and more Houfu monks came out of the mountains and forests behind him.

Tao Er glanced at Zhu Yi carefully, revealing a look of admiration: "In less than half a year, he has cultivated to the sixth level of Qi cultivation, Young Master Yi is so talented, and he is worthy of the blood of Hou Ye." ”

"But it's not good for you to disobey Lord Hou's instructions. ”

Zhu Yi took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "My father's cultivation is profound, that is his ability, and my cultivation today is due to my own efforts and my master's teachings. ”

Tao Er shook his head: "Young Master Yi doesn't understand, Master Hou is fair, he has a thousand years, his arrangement must be right, you just need to follow the path that Master Hou arranged for you." ”

Hearing this, not only Zhu Yi, but also Xiao Yan and Xiao Budian's brows furrowed.

Tao Er didn't care, and continued to say slowly: "The old slave came out this time, first, to investigate Huang San's disappearance, and secondly, to find Young Master Yi. ”

Zhu Yi said calmly: "Huang San and the others, died at the hands of Liu Yang, a monk of the Jindan period of the Shushan Sword Sect, I witnessed it with my own eyes. ”

"Shushan Sword Sect. Tao Er nodded, and then asked, "Then Young Master Yi, how did you get out of danger, and those gale will rebel against the thieves?"

Zhu Yi replied, "The people of the Gale Wind Society escaped through the teleportation array, and my master saved me, and I have been learning the Tao with my master ever since. ”

Tao Er said "um": "Since this is the case, it can only be like this first, Young Master Yi, you will go home with the old slave, you have been away from home for many days, and the Hou Ye and Mrs. are very concerned about you." ”

Zhu Yi said quietly: "I want to learn the Tao from my master, and if I succeed in my studies in the future, I will naturally go back." ”

Tao Er smiled: "Young Master Yi is joking, although you are not Hou Ye's sister-in-law, you can't learn Hou Ye's Dao supernatural powers, but Hou Ye will also arrange a suitable master for you, and you don't need to apprentice yourself." ”

"So, Young Master Yi will go back to Tianjing with the old slave. Tao Er said as a matter of course: "If you are worried that your master is entangled, the old slave will go and help you talk about it, if he is really a master, he will definitely understand the reason, how can he bear to be separated from his parents?"

Xiao Yan and Xiao Budian both looked slightly changed, and their bodies were stopped by Zhu Yi just about to move, Zhu Yi raised his eyes to look at Tao Er, and said calmly: "Master has the grace of saving my life, I am a teacher for one day, and a teacher for life, Mr. Tao Er's kindness has been received, please return to my father, one day, I will definitely return to Tianjing, but not now." ”

Tao Er glanced at Zhu Yi fixedly, and sighed: "Young Master Yi usually emphasizes filial piety the most, but now he has been led to the evil path, it can be seen that your master must be a traitor, and please ask Young Master Yi to tell the old slave where he is now? ”

"Such a demon should abolish his cultivation, soak in the dung pit, and parade through the streets to warn the world. ”

Not only did Xiao Yan and Xiao Budian show angry faces, but even Zhu Yi lowered his face, but he heard Tao Er continue: "In addition, before coming out, Master Hou instructed the old slave that if he found Young Master Yi, he must take Young Master Yi back to his house safely." ”

"Master Hou's instructions must be completed. ”

As he spoke, a group of Xuanji Houfu monks behind him had spread out, surrounding the three Zhu Yishi brothers in the middle.

Zhu Yi and the three of them all sank to the bottom for a while.

............

Inside the Huangquan Pearl, in the center of the long river, Wang Lin in the ball of light had not yet woken up, Lin Feng sat quietly on the ball of light, and his mind was still seriously figuring out the scriptures of the Huangquan Nirvana on the black stone pillar.

The real water of the Yellow Spring in the distance suddenly rattled, and the surging Yellow Spring True Water was holding a figure and approaching rapidly.

The figure was Sikong Nan, and when he saw Lin Feng, he immediately laughed: "Junior, the humiliation I gave to the old man before, the old man will pay you back a hundred times now!"
