readx;? In the place of 3,500 miles away from the southwest direction of Jinling City, there is a magnificent giant mountain, this mountain is called "Wenyang Mountain", and at the foot of the mountain there is a city that is not big or small, called "Wenyang City".

Wenyang City, known as the "ghost town" in the local area, is called a ghost town not because of the city's terrifying ghosts, but because the location of the city is too remote, Wenyang Mountain is located in the southwest of the south side of the road three hundred miles, and located at the foot of the mountain Wenyang City is the only city within a radius of three hundred miles, in addition to the surrounding not even a village.

Wenyang City is isolated from the world like an isolated ghost city, Wenyang City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, a city gate is opened in the south and north of the city, the north gate of the city faces the outside world, and the south gate of the city is facing Wenyang Mountain. Outside the north gate of the city, there is a winding dirt road leading to the outside world, this road is simply difficult to be called a "road", because the road is full of sand and gravel, twists and turns are narrow, and even can not accommodate two carriages at the same time, and the most surprising thing is that the dirt road that leads to the secluded place of this winding path is actually from the north gate of Wenyang City to the southwest road, the total length is three hundred miles away, and on this road there is no human population at all, except for the barren grass everywhere is the mountain, forest and soil and stone, there is nothing else.

And this three-hundred-mile-long winding path is also the only road to Wenyang City from the outside world, and there is no other way to reach Wenyang City smoothly. And the most interesting thing is that although Wenyang Mountain is magnificent, but the mountain is extremely steep, since ancient times, there is only one way to climb Wenyang Mountain, and the location of this road is outside the south gate of Wenyang City, which means that if you want to climb Wenyang Mountain, you must pass through Wenyang City, enter from the north gate of the city, and then go out from the south gate of the city to go up the mountain!

It is precisely because of the extremely special remote location of Wenyang City that two or three outsiders have not been seen rushing to this Wenyang City for almost a whole year. The people in Wenyang City have always lived a self-sufficient life, and they are not eager to have too much contact with the outside world.

To put it mildly, because Wenyang City has been isolated from the world for so long, most people in the outside world don't know if there are still people alive in Wenyang City. Over time, the nickname of this "ghost town" naturally fell on the head of Wenyang City.

There is a fork in the road in the southwest, and there is a very serious broken stone tablet eroded by the wind and sand on the side of the fork, and the handwriting on the stone tablet is almost smoothed, but if you carefully identify it, you can still recognize the two words "Wenyang" on the stone tablet.

"Yifan, Wenyang City has arrived!" Ji Yuan squatted beside the stele, his fingers repeatedly touched the handwriting on the stele, and said with a smile, "If we come a year and a half late, I'm afraid that the words on this stele will be completely unreadable, if the expectation is good, we will go all the way down this path to Wenyang City!"

"Well, according to the news we got two days ago, if you want to go up Wenyang Mountain, you must first pass through Wenyang City!" Lu Yifan stood in front of the carriage and raised his eyes to look at this endless winding path, "It is said that this road is three hundred miles away, if we hurry up, we can enter Wenyang City in the evening!"

Today is already the sixth day that Lu Yifan and the others have left the Holy Soul Academy, and they have also asked a lot of news about Wenyang City along the way, so they are still relatively familiar with the situation here. It's noon, and although it's still winter, the sun is abundant, and it even gives people a feeling of dryness.

Han Ling'er sat in the carriage, looked at the endless path with a displeased face, and said angrily: "What kind of road is this?

I don't know why, Han Linger's temper has become extremely irritable in the past few days, especially for Lu Yifan, she has hardly given a good face, and her words are full of sarcasm, which makes Lu Yifan and Ji Yuan wonder if Han Linger eavesdropped on their conversation that day.

"The locals have said that Wenyang City has been a remote ...... since ancient times."

"Whoosh!"

Before Lu Yifan could patiently explain, he only heard a sudden sound of breaking the air in mid-air, and then saw two figures emerging from the sky, flying quickly in the direction of Lu Yifan and the others at a speed like a wind. Seeing this scene, the faces of Lu Yifan and the three of them changed instantly, and before they could react, they saw that the two figures had already jumped over the heads of Lu Yifan and the three of them in the blink of an eye, and flew directly from mid-air without the slightest hesitation, and disappeared in the direction of Wenyang City in the blink of an eye.

Although it was a fleeting scene, Lu Yifan and the three of them still saw all this in a real way, that is, the two people who walked against the wind were a man and a woman. The man looked to be no more than thirty years old, slender in a green shirt, his black hair was casually draped over his shoulders, fluttering in the wind with a hint of grace, and a rather ornately decorated sword was carried diagonally around his waist.

The woman is about twenty years old, a white robe will highlight the full and delicate figure to the fullest, although she did not see her appearance carefully, but the fair skin on the face and the three thousand gradually charming eyes of the slender green silk can make people sure, this woman's appearance will not be bad, and the most impressive thing is that the woman's waist is also wearing a light cyan carved jade pendant, the white skirt under the reflection of this cyan jade pendant is even more elegant.

It is worth mentioning that the two of them are not one after the other, but the man stretches out his right arm and hugs the woman's waist tightly, and the woman is like a bird and always snuggles tightly in the man's broad chest, the man's movements are natural and powerful, and the woman is kind and docile, so it is not difficult to guess that the two of them must be a couple with strong affection.

When the two of them flew quickly over Lu Yifan and the three of them, the man also quickly glanced at Lu Yifan and the three of them with a cold gaze, but he didn't say anything after all, just glanced at it coldly and then flew away with the woman in his arms, leaving only the surprised Lu Yifan and the three of them in place.

"It's ...... Ride against the wind. Ji Yuan said to himself in surprise, "They are the Soul King......

The reason why Ji Yuan said this is because only when the soul power cultivation reaches the realm of the soul king, can he have the ability to fly against the wind and leap in the air, and it is impossible for people below the soul king to have such skills.

"A man should be, and that woman doesn't seem to have any cultivation!" Lu Yifan said lightly, "Just now that man was taking that woman to the wind, that man doesn't look very old, I didn't expect to have such a cultivation, it seems that my father is right, the world is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger." ”

"This is a real man, walking with his beloved woman against the wind, snuggling tightly, wandering the world......" Han Ling'er sighed expectantly, and between her words, Lu Yifan could always feel a faint sense of targeting.

Women and men care about things that are never the same.

"Looking at their direction, it should also be good to go to Wenyang City, doesn't it mean that Wenyang City is a ghost town? How can there be such a master in and out of it?" Ji Yuan said with a puzzled face.

"Maybe people are just passing by, but we are making too much of a fuss!" Lu Yifan smiled embarrassedly, then turned around and jumped into the carriage, "Let's hurry up, we don't have the ability to walk against the wind, we have to rely on the carriage to go slowly!"

"Hmph!" Han Ling'er turned her head suddenly, fortunately ignoring Lu Yifan no more.

With Ji Yuan's dry laughter, the carriage had already stepped onto the potholed path and galloped towards Wenyang City.

When Lu Yifan and the three of them arrived at the gate of Wenyang City, it was already evening, and the sunset on the horizon was shining red under the reflection of the setting sun.

This is a rather quaint tall city wall, the wall bricks are wide and thick, although the wind erosion over the years has left many traces of years on the city wall, but it still gives people a very thick and stocky feeling, and in the middle of the city wall that stretches for nearly 100 meters are two huge city gates, the two city gates are wide open left and right, three or five soldiers guarding the city are sitting casually in the door hole drinking and chatting, they have long been accustomed to this kind of idleness, guarding the city gate in Wenyang City is actually similar to going to a tavern, all day long is to drink and chat, at this time it is already dusk, as long as they talk for a while until the sky is completely dark, they can close the city gate and go back to rest。

Because there may not be a few people coming and going here all year round, these soldiers guarding the city have no rules to speak of.

And directly above the city gate, there is also a black plaque, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances and engraves three big characters "Wenyang City".

Ji Yuan parked the carriage in front of the city gate, first looked up at the big characters on the city gate, and then raised his eyes to look at the huge mountain range towering behind this wide city, and finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"It seems that we have arrived, the big mountain behind this city should be Wenyang Mountain!Yifan, I hope what you are looking for is on this mountain!" Ji Yuan laughed loudly.

And with the arrival of Lu Yifan and the others, it also attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding the city, and they put down the wine bowls in their hands one by one in surprise, and stood up with doubts on their faces, and one of the leaders also strode towards Lu Yifan's carriage.

"Who are you, what are you doing in Wenyang City?" the sergeant at the head asked loudly, and looking at his blushing face, it was obvious that he had just drunk a lot.

"We want to go up to Wenyang Mountain, and the path is ...... Wenyang City"

"Forbidden Mountain!" Before Lu Yifan's words could finish speaking, the sergeant directly and unceremoniously interrupted, "A year ago, Marquis Wen Yang ordered the mountain to be banned, and no one can open the south gate without permission unless there is an edict from Marquis Wen Yang. Go back!"

The Marquis of Wenyang, who is the city lord of Wenyang City, belongs to a local official position that is enshrined by the emperor.

"What's the matter with you, is it easy for us to come all the way here?" Han Ling'er's suppressed anger was suddenly ignited by the sergeant's unceremonious anger, "What do you mean to go back? Miss Ben can't go back or not, how can you have the final say? Besides, a little Wenyang Marquis ......"

"Ling'er!" Before Han Ling'er could say anything "disrespectful", Lu Yifan hurriedly covered Han Ling'er's mouth with one hand, and then whispered, "Do you think this is Jinling City? Ling'er, you must be restrained when you speak, otherwise it will be us who will suffer!"

"What are you talking about? Little girl, uncle, I'm here to defend the city, I let you in before you can enter, I won't let you in, you can't enter the city even if you find the king of heaven!"

"Oh, take a chicken feather as an arrow, you bastard, I really think Miss Ben can't do anything about you, right?" Where did Han Ling'er be insulted like this, and he was also angry at the moment, so he pushed Lu Yifan's arm away, and Lu Yifan's arm hurt for a while, and Han Ling'er walked towards the city guard sergeant with a big stride completely disregarded.

"Ling'er ......"

"Don't stop me!"

Before Lu Yifan opened his mouth, Han Ling'er was feet suddenly accelerated, and the whole person instantly turned into a fierce wind and swooped towards the sergeant, and then before the sergeant could react, he saw Han Ling'er suddenly make a move, and the two jade hands quickly shook the sergeant's cheeks like lightning, and then only two crisp sounds of "pop, pop" were heard and suddenly echoed in front of the city gate.

The other sergeants who were originally gathered together to watch the excitement were also stunned in an instant, and with these two loud slaps, some of the people in the city who passed by in the city gate also surrounded them curiously.

The audience was amazed, everyone silently looked at the sergeant standing motionless in place and Han Ling'er who stood in front of him with an arrogant appearance, and some people silently watched the sergeant's fat face slowly appear two clearly visible slap prints.

Lu Yifan and Ji Yuan were even more stunned on the spot, and a touch of embarrassment and embarrassment between the two eyes instantly surged into their faces.

"This eldest lady is really going to cause trouble......
