Chapter III

Walk separately

——————————————

......

Outside the east gate of Shanbei City is an ocean-like mountain forest.

Another mountain stretching for thousands of miles is located in the south, so it is called the north city of the mountain.

Jiang Liu'er followed Jiang Heng's instructions and followed the flower thieves all the way to a valley outside the city. As Jiang Heng said......

There is no team of flower thieves gathered there.

There were so many that more than a dozen girls were transported to the valley.

On the way, if a girl wakes up early, she will be severely beaten or even insulted by these flower thieves.

There are many ways to insult, but most of them are what Jiang Liuer does not want to see.

Above the valley, Jiang Liu'er crouched on the edge of a rock, cautiously watching the movement below.

After taking stock of the people, these guys found that there was a missing team.

Some suggested waiting for the group to return, but most suggested leaving as soon as possible, as it was almost dawn.

Consciousness told Jiang Liu'er that if he could only save these dozen girls at this moment, if he continued to follow, he might be able to discover some bigger secrets.

The black feather eagle demon flew over in the sky, and Jiang Liu'er gestured to it.

The Black Feather Eagle Demon leaned over to Jiang Heng's side, Jiang Liu'er knew the secret of the Black Feather Eagle Demon and Jiang Heng, so after he told the Black Feather Eagle Demon about the problems he found, it was equivalent to telling Jiang Heng about it.

And by the way, he put forward the idea that he wanted to follow this group of people, and the Black Feather Eagle Demon was temporarily by Jiang Liu'er's side, acting as a flying mount at the same time, and also a liaison between the two at that time.

After a moment, the Black Feather Eagle Demon nodded, Jiang Liu'er knew that Jiang Heng had the same thoughts about him.

Jiang Liu'er immediately set off, rode the black-feathered eagle demon into the air, and closely followed this group of gang-like flower thieves all the way south.

......

Also to the south are Jiang Heng and Pu Yuan.

It's just that Pu Yuan couldn't stand Jiang Heng walking over step by step on the third day, and left one step ahead again.

When leaving, he said, "I will never wait for you this time!"

Pu Yuan planned to enter the Nanqi Prefecture Mansion directly by himself and settle down there first.

At this point, Jiang Heng was the only one left in the threesome team at this moment.

......

On this day, the sky was gray.

And it was raining, carrying a basket of books and an umbrella, Jiang Heng walked to the official road to the next town, and the road was very smooth.

There is no city in these hundred miles, and not even an inn can be found.

Eat some wild fruit when you are hungry, and drink it with a little dew when you are thirsty.

At night, there will be an old ghost who will appear to chat with him to relieve his boredom.

But the pace still didn't stop.

He walked slowly......

The old ghost floating next to him sneered: "Cultivating the mind and cultivating the mind! The essence of the Buddhist family! Shouldn't these be handed over to that little guy to practice?"

Jiang Heng shook his head and replied:

His original intention was naturally to let Xiao Jiangliuer concentrate on cultivating his mind, but it was a pity that this child knew too little about the world.

Blindly cultivating the mind is not necessarily a good thing for him. It's better to give him a little space and freedom, let him experience some worldly things, and then come back and comprehend, maybe let him have a deeper understanding.

It's good for him!

......

Along with himself, Jiang Heng is also doing a period of cultivation of the mind.

The pseudonym Jiang Hengyan, although there is only one word difference from the original name, but the identity is very different, but it is like a world of world.

One is the deputy head of the Qingyan Ancient School, and the other is just an unknown scholar who has no name and how to enter the state capital to gain fame.

He carried the green bamboo, shuttled and walked on the official road in the mountains and forests.

The road is long, and it is obviously a difficult journey for a true scholar.

It's a pity that Jiang Heng is not......

Therefore, he began to wonder, how could those ordinary scholars cross such a long distance to the state capital to catch the exam?

The answer is – no.

They will gain some fame in the nearest town.

After leaving the city, what kind of danger they would encounter was no longer something that they could cope with as powerless scholars.

After all, this is the world of cultivators, and in those seemingly calm mountains and forests, there are many monsters and evil monsters lurking, and even those who have cultivated may not be able to walk over safely.

And even more so them?

It's a pity that there are still special and surprising existences among them.

It should be noon one day after leaving Shanbei City for half a month.

Jiang Heng met a scholar in a broken pavilion on the official road, a scholar who was really powerless.

The man's surname was Zhang and his name was Songxi.

It does sound like a scholar's name.

Jiang Heng rested with him in the pavilion for a while, and when he was about to get up again, he realized that this scholar named Zhang Zuoxi was also going to Nanqi Prefecture.

What to do?

Naturally, it is to gain fame!

Jiang Heng said: "This is more than 10 million miles to Nanqi Prefecture, and the journey can be described as difficult. This mountain beast alone is not something that ordinary people can deal with!"

Zhang Zuoxi said: "I don't think so! I wonder if Mr. Li Lanqing was also a scholar at the beginning, and his works have been circulated for thousands of years, and they are still called classics in the world?"

Li Lanqing?

Hearing Li Lanqing's name again, Jiang Heng suddenly felt a little unfamiliar.

But when you think about it, this should be a name that he knows and respects.

"Yes, with the power of a scholar, he has achieved a career that even immortals can't reach, and it is not an exaggeration to call Mr. Lan Qing the first literati and ink artist in ancient and modern times!"

looked at Zhang Zuoxi, looking at his thin body.

Jiang Heng planned to be with him for a while, but he still had an intuition, and he felt that he could encounter some ingenious things in this person.

In particular, he is also a supporter of the idea that "evil cannot prevail over good".

He said: "As long as you are upright, the demon will naturally not dare to intrude!"

If these words were used on Li Lanqing, Jiang Heng would naturally believe it.

But how many people in this world can be like Mr. Lan Qing, who is righteous all his life, and the demons dare not approach?

This young scholar named Zhang Zuoxi in front of him?

Jiang Heng shook his head and just said to him: "Brother Zhang, let's go!"

He just came back to his senses from the feeling just now, and then talked to Jiang Heng all the way, all the way down.

......

In the mountains and forests, the wind and clouds change color, only in that moment.

It was cloudless just now, but suddenly it was cloudy.

There seems to be a heavy rain coming.

Jiang Heng and Zhang Zuoxi hurried in the mountains and forests, hoping to find a place to shelter from the rain before the heavy rain fell.

The two of them walked faster and faster, but the rain came faster.

Zhang Zuoxi was about to hold the package of endorsements on his back in his arms, for fear that the books would get wet.

It's just that this hug shouldn't be tight. Most of them were distracted, and they walked to a void rock and slid down the hillside......
