There is something wrong with this world.

Xia Fan knew this a long time ago.

But as he got deeper and deeper into the world, he realized that the problems of this world were even more exaggerated than he had imagined.

Especially when he learned from Zeng Yan that the earliest celestial beings were aliens, he had a feeling that his worldview had exploded at that moment.

It took a long time.

Are you telling me that the celestials are aliens?

Although Xia Fan can also be called an alien, he is fundamentally different from the celestials.

Because Xia Fan came through inexplicably, and according to the story told by Zeng Yan, the celestial man came on his own initiative.

One passive, one active.

That alone speaks volumes.

From the perspective of conspiracy theories, the celestial beings who came to this world on their own initiative can be described as impure motives.

At first, the celestial beings did not interfere with the world, and they did not necessarily have the intention of silently observing the world before taking action.

Even if Xia Fan had just crossed over, it would take him a little time to get used to this world.

What's more, the civilization of the Shenzhou world was still in a period of ignorance, and it was normal for the heavenly people to be reluctant to take the initiative to deal with these uncivilized savages.

But why did the celestial beings later change their attitudes and support the natives of this world?

I'm afraid there is only one answer.

Benefit.

Only when the indigenous people develop can they meet the interests and needs of the heavenly people.

From the first generation of human emperors to unify Shenzhou by the Heavenly People, and then to the flourishing of Shenzhou's cultivation, there are shadows of heavenly people behind this.

Here's the problem.

What is the purpose of the celestials?

Maybe.

It is very likely that this is related to those Heavenly Realm monks who were led to the "Immortal Realm" by the Celestial Beings.

Some monks never returned, and some monks changed their temperament when they returned.

Doesn't that tell us anything?

The celestial people have treated the indigenous monks of this world as leeks and "harvested" them one after another.

The last emperor Jedi Tiantong, maybe he knew what was going on, so he left that last word.

Heaven and man should not exist in this world, and the fairy world is also not the real fairy world.

From then on, the heavens and the earth changed suddenly.

The methods of the monks taught by the celestials have completely failed, and although the ancient remnants have created martial arts, no one can be promoted to the realm of heaven and man.

As for the Demon Sect.

It is estimated that this is the last emperor left behind, and there is only one purpose.

Prevent the heavens from coming to this world again!

It's just that he can't figure it out.

Why is this world not allowed to have too many martial artists, otherwise it will lead to the so-called imbalance of yin and yang and cause the celestial beings to reincarnate in the world? You must know that the Demon Sect did not hesitate to bear all the infamy and hatred for this.

Because of this, Xia Fan's attitude towards the Demon Sect has changed.

I would rather endure the incomprehension of the world and still insist on my own opinions, fighting alone all the way and standing still today, but I think of the countless people in the rivers and lakes who have died in the hands of the Demon Sect.

The Demon Sect is respectable and has a hateful label on its body.

It's simply a mixture of contradictions.

The wine was drunk until midnight.

Xia Fan's eyes were a little misty, he seemed to enjoy this slightly drunk feeling, and occasionally picked up chopsticks and tapped the wine bowl and sang two sentences, not caring about the eyes of others at all.

In fact, there is a lot of small talk between him and Zhong Liyuan, there are many things that he wants to say but hasn't said yet, most of the time it's you and me, just like two people who have their own hearts and refuse to confide their hearts, and time passes quietly before you know it.

"It's time for me to go. ”

When Xia Fan was no longer interested, he shook his head, and his eyes returned to clarity.

"Don't you wait until dawn before leaving?"

Zhong Liyuan drunkenly looked out of the dark window.

"Come and return, why care about the time. ”

said.

Xia Fan got up and stretched his body.

"Do you need me to send you?"

Zhong Liyuan burped.

"Then come with me. ”

Xia Fan didn't refuse, and walked straight towards the door.

"Is the guest officer leaving?"

Xiao Er, who had been lying on the table and chair in front of the door, was drowsy, and hurriedly got up and greeted.

"If you work hard, you will be rewarded for the excess. ”

Xia Fan casually threw a full ingot of gold to Xiao Er.

"Thank you, guest!"

Xiao Er instantly lifted his spirits and smiled, and quickly opened the closed door of the inn.

"The moon is fine tonight. ”

Going out of the gate and feeling the cold wind blowing in his face, Xia Fan looked up at the bright moon above the night sky, and sighed casually.

"It's not bad, it's like a round flatbread. ”

Zhong Liyuan looked up and smiled drunkenly.

"Since Wanyang's farewell, when did you return to Xiaozhou?"

Leisurely strolling through the deserted streets, Xia Fan asked nonchalantly.

"Before the first month, I rushed back on the orders of the master. ”

Zhong Liyuan walked and staggered, as if he might fall on the side of the road at any time.

"The order of the master?"

Xia Fan said absent-mindedly.

"The order of the suzerain, to be exact. Zhong Liyuan said disapprovingly. "The sect master asked me to stay in the sect with peace of mind during this time, and I was not allowed to leave without permission. ”

"Do you know why?"

Xia Fan raised his eyebrows.

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Zhong Liyuan said in a lazy tone. "I don't want to make myself unhappy. ”

"Hehe, yes, being a man, it's rare to be confused, maybe you can live faster and more freely. ”

Xia Fan couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he heard this.

"I thought you would see this clearly after you left Wanyang, but I didn't expect you to fall deeper and deeper. ”

Zhong Liyuan sighed inexplicably.

"There is a thorn in my heart, and I have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, I always want to pull out the thorn, but the thorn is not pulled out, but it gets worse and worse, and sometimes I am so angry that I want to smash it all. ”

Xia Fan said helplessly.

"But I'm glad I kept my temper strained, otherwise I would have missed too much or made an irreparable mistake. ”

"Do you mean the Demon Sect?"

Zhong Liyuan said lightly.

"The world is so complicated. Xia Fan didn't answer the question. "Sure enough, I shouldn't have been involved in these things in the first place, and then again, this is the first time I've regretted it?"

As long as you don't go against your heart, you have nothing to regret no matter what the outcome is, after all, it's a choice you made in your heart. ”

Zhong Liyuan took the wine jug he brought out of the inn in his hand and poured it into his mouth again.

Unfortunately, people are different, anyway, I can't live as thoroughly as you for the time being. ”

Xia Fan shrugged his shoulders and said.

“...... I've always been curious about one thing. ”

Zhong Liyuan was silent for a moment.

Say. ”

Xia Fan was simply this time.

"How old are you?"

Zhong Liyuan took a deep breath and stared at Xia Fan with no drunkenness in his eyes.

"Are you trying to ask me how old I am? or my actual age?

Xia Fan suddenly turned his head to look at Zhong Liyuan with a smile.

"Is there any difference between the three?"

Zhong Liyuan was puzzled.

"There is a difference, but I'm afraid you'll think I'm deliberately teasing you. ”

Xia Fan said lightly.

"I believe in you. ”

Zhong Liyuan said directly.

"If I'm not a fictional age this year, my real age should be only twenty-four or five years old, and my actual age will be doubled, and as for my mental age, it should be about the same as my real age. ”

Speaking of which, Xia Fan had no intention of concealing it.

“...... You say you're only twenty-four or five years old?"

When Zhong Liyuan heard this, the whole person looked at Xia Fan with a stunned expression.

"It's incredible, isn't it? But the age of my body is really that. ”

Xia Fan spread his hands.

"Then how did you get to ...... cultivation?"

Zhong Liyuan blurted out suddenly, but he stopped abruptly in the middle of the conversation, and seemed to react in time This is a rather rude thing.

"It's not a big deal, you can treat me as a peerless genius who you see once in ten thousand years, because it took me ten years to cultivate to the realm of a great grandmaster...... Well, no, to be exact, it's the realm of the Supreme Grand Master. ”

Xia Fan touched his chin and said.

"If I am given a few more years, I should be able to cultivate to the Heavenly and Human Realm. ”

“......”

Zhong Liyuan was completely silent.

He looked at Xia Fan like he was looking at a monster.

The first thought in my mind was that this guy was teasing himself.

But.

Xia Fan had already reminded him very clearly before this.

What's more, Zhong Liyuan believes in his own vision of looking at people, although Xia Fan's words and deeds are quite strange and out of tune, but he often shows a steady side in business.

Again.

His mentality was very young, and he didn't see the slightest hint of lifelessness emanating from only the old guy.

If only he really didn't tease himself.

Other words.

The Xia Fan in front of him is actually his junior?

But how can a peerless genius like him look at it with normal eyes?

Ten years of cultivation to the realm of the Supreme Grand Master?!

Just kidding, right?

If the warriors of the world want to commit suicide by hitting the wall after knowing it, this also includes all the geniuses who have been talented since the Middle Ages.

"Hey, hey, hey, come back to your senses! Don't be stupid!"

At this time.

Xia Fan waved his hand in front of Zhong Liyuan's eyes.

"Are you really less than twenty-five years old this year?"

Zhong Liyuan, who came back to his senses, still looked at Xia Fandao without giving up.

"If you find it unacceptable, you can actually think of me as a hundred and twenty-five year old, and I don't mind having another grandchild anyway. ”

Xia Fan turned around disapprovingly and walked to the side.

"Actually, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that what you said is too unacceptable. ”

Zhong Liyuan hurriedly followed, and said with a wry smile.

"What I just said was a lie to you. ”

Xia Fan didn't look back and said lightly.

“......”

Zhong Liyuan was stunned when he heard this.

Lie to me?

"Let me tell you, my true identity is a celestial, a man from outside the sky~"

Xia Fan said with a hint of brisk tone.

“......”

Time.

Zhong Liyuan completely confused Xia Fan.

"Just send it here. ”

Unexpectedly, Xia Fan soon stopped, because they could already see the gate of the county seat in front of them.

"Before leaving, I have a question for you, and I hope you'd better not lie to me. ”

"Speak. ”

Zhong Liyuan didn't know why.

"Have you taken refuge in the Demon Sect?"

Xia Fan turned his back to Zhong Liyuan and said in a calm tone.

"......," Zhong Liyuan said silently for a moment. "The people of the Demon Sect have indeed come into contact with me, but I am not a member of the Demon Sect. ”

"I understand, you can do it for yourself in the future, your ancestor is not a simple person. ”

After speaking.

Xia Fan disappeared in front of Zhong Liyuan without hesitation.

Long.

Zhong Liyuan still stood in place, motionless.

"Zhongli, go back. ”

I don't know when.

Zeng Yan quietly appeared beside Zhong Liyuan, patted him on the shoulder casually, but his eyes looked at the direction of Xia Fan's departure.

"Ancestor, Zhongli is at fault. ”

Zhong Liyuan suddenly knelt down in the local road.

"Get up, go back, you're right, it's us who are really wrong. ”

Zeng Yan smiled and shook his head.

......

"Brother Lu, I'm back. ”

In an inconspicuous house in the middle of the capital.

As soon as Shi Xiaofei entered the room, he quickly closed the door and whispered.

"Huh, seeing that you are safe and sound, I am finally relieved. ”

Lu Shaoyang suddenly jumped down from the beam of the house, and the whole person looked at Shi Xiaofeidao with relief.

"Brother Lu, the situation is a little bad!"

Shi Xiaofei picked up the teapot on the table and poured it into his mouth, he wiped his mouth, tore off the disguised beard attached to his mouth, and said with an unusually solemn expression.

"What's going on?!"

Lu Shaoyang frowned and said in a deep voice.

Since they and Wen Qiyun came to the capital, they have quietly found this private house to live in temporarily, it is said that this private house was purchased by Huanhua Sword Pavilion decades ago, so there is no need to worry about the Demon Sect finding the door.

It didn't take long.

Wen Qiyun left the mansion and told the two of them not to go out without permission if they had nothing important, so as not to attract the attention of the Demon Sect.

Shi Xiaofei and Lu Shaoyang naturally didn't dare to disobey Wen Qiyun's explanation, but they stayed in the house for a few days, but after Wen Qiyun came back, both of them couldn't help but worry about Wen Qiyun's situation. 、

Ultimately.

After a careful discussion, the two decided to leave the house to find someone to investigate the situation.

But the question is who to turn to?

Originally, Lu Shaoyang still wanted to visit King Yu, but after thinking that King Yu's mansion might be infiltrated by the Demon Sect, it was tantamount to throwing himself into a net to visit King Yu now, so he simply dispelled this idea.

Soon.

So they took their idea to another place.

Xiulinfang Nanjia Cloth Village.

An address that Fan Xiaohong gave them at the beginning.

After all, Fan Xiaohong once said that if you encounter trouble in the capital, you can go to the address and person on the note.

The only question is can they trust Fan Xiaohong?

Think about it.

Shi Xiaofei chose to believe Fan Xiaohong, and volunteered to go to Xiulinfang Nanjia Cloth Village.

Lu Shaoyang had to agree to Shi Xiaofei's adventure after persuasion failed, and in order to prevent the Demon Sect from discovering Shi Xiaofei, he also deliberately helped Shi Xiaofei disguise himself.

Although he can't make Shi Xiaofei's whole person look different, at least people can't see his original appearance.

After going out.

By constantly asking people.

Shi Xiaofei successfully came to Xiulinfang Nanjia Cloth Village, and after the code, he finally met the person Fan Xiaohong said.

A woman.

A woman who has lost both eyes.
