Chapter 22: The Nine Shades

"Grandpa, grandpa, he...... He's dying. Meng You'er's eyes were red and swollen, and she was still holding two lines of tears at the moment, and she was out of breath, obviously running all the way here.

Meng You'er was brought up by her grandfather since she was a child, except for the elderly, there is no support, although the people here are simple, everyone is like a relative, but that kind of affection is not comparable to outsiders after all.

Meng You'er is a filial 'girl' child, no matter the wind or rain, she collects herbs and 'medicines' in the mountains and forests, for her grandfather's life, but the old man is dying after all, and it is no longer the power of 'medicine' that can be saved.

"Go, take me there. Xuanchen immediately said, seeing Meng You'er crying like a water man, he felt unbearable.

Meng You'er sobbed, but she was very hesitant, "However, Grandpa doesn't like others to disturb his peace. ”

Xuan Chen's heart was sour, Meng You'er was too kind, so he didn't want to make the old man angry, this filial piety was amiable and respectable.

"But now is a critical time, I don't think your grandfather will be angry, maybe, I may have a way to save your grandfather. Xuan Chen comforted, at this time, Meng You'er could think of him, instead of being by her grandfather's side, which showed that the old man's condition was very bad.

Meng You'er's eyes lit up, and she suddenly released a ray of hope, "Really?"

"I won't lie to you. Xuan Chen said solemnly.

"Alright, you come with me. "Meng You'er took Xuan Chen and ran quickly towards the Peach 'Flower' Valley, falling down again and again, getting up again and again, and blood spilled out on her feet and knees.

Xuanchen was sad for a while, grabbed Meng You'er, and suddenly hugged her, Meng You'er was startled.

"Quick, you tell me the direction of Peach 'Blossom' Valley. Xuanchen said, seeing that Xuanchen had no other thoughts, Meng You'er was relieved.

"This way. Meng You'er said, suddenly, there was wind on both sides, and the speed was several times faster in vain, Meng You'er looked at Xuan Chen in surprise, such a speed made her a little surprised.

About half a pillar of incense, a huge valley appeared in Xuan Chen's eyes, in the center of the valley was a lake with a radius of about hundreds of zhang, and a small island was located in the middle of the small lake.

A waterfall pours down from the cliff behind the island, splashing a few feet high water 'flowers', and the thick mist surrounds the island, like a fairy island, steaming, and a rainbow bridge spans both sides of the island, setting off the island like a mirage.

The island is a pink 'color', a faint fragrance spreads, the dust above this valley can feel refreshed, the island shore is full of peach trees, countless butterflies fly among the 'flowers', leisurely.

There are a few small wooden houses near the waterfall on the island, which are very simple, but have a unique beauty.

There is a wooden bridge connecting the island and the shore of the lake, giving people a sense of tranquility, and it is a place where it is suitable for cultivation.

Xuan Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the Peach 'Blossom' Valley in the distance in surprise.

"Is that the Peach 'Blossom' Valley?" Xuan Chen said, and then looked at Meng You'er in his arms, I don't know when, Meng You'er actually fell asleep, obviously because she hadn't rested for too long and was too tired.

Hearing Xuan Chen's words, Meng You'er's body trembled, obviously awakened, and suddenly opened her eyes, "En." ”

Xuanchen didn't say a word, and quickly ran towards the small bridge in the lake with Meng You'er in his arms.

The moment he just stepped into the wooden bridge, Xuan Chen felt an indescribable aura rushing to his face, and then his eyes changed in vain, and he was surprised in his heart: "It turned out to be the qi of the fairy!"

While running and looking at the surrounding situation, Xuan Chen's brows became tighter and tighter, and his heart was very complicated, "Could it be?"

Xuan Chen suddenly thought of a lot, and his heart was full of doubts, the island had already appeared ten zhang away, Xuan Chen rushed over in a few steps, and gently put Meng You'er down.

"Grandpa, grandpa!" Meng You'er suddenly ran anxiously towards a small wooden house in the distance.

However, it was stopped by a resistance, and it couldn't get any closer.

Xuan Chen's eyes contained golden light, and a rich black 'color' light curtain appeared in Xuan Chen's eyes, emitting a faint light from above.

"It turned out to be the Qi of the Nine Shadows!" Xuan Chen trembled lightly, setting off a terrifying 'wave' in his heart.

The Qi of the Nine Shades, which Xuan Chen had seen in an immortal tomb in his previous life, is a kind of Qi that is the most 'Yin', but unlike the general 'Yin' Qi, the Qi of the Nine Shades cannot be captured, and only special people can control it, but this special person is a Feng Shui master!

The Nine Shades Qi is a kind of immortal qi that sets up a powerful feng shui array, and only those who are destined can have the opportunity to obtain a wisp of it, which shows its preciousness.

Only then did Xuan Chen know that Meng You'er in the distance did not leave at the most critical moment of the old man, but was driven out of his place by the old man, and there was no way, so he went to find Xuan Chen.

"Grandpa, grandpa, let You'er in!" Meng You'er's tears gushed out, and she kept rushing towards the wooden house, but she was resisted by an invisible resistance.

"Grandpa, You'er will definitely cure you, You'er won't be lazy in the future, grandpa don't be angry with You'er, okay." ”

"Grandpa, didn't you tell You'er that you want to take care of You'er for the rest of your life? Don't you want You'er now, but You'er only has one relative, grandfather. ”

"Grandpa, did you say that you want to take You'er to pick wild fruits, catch butterflies, watch You'er grow up and become a 'becoming' person, and watch You'er become a wife and mother?"

"Grandpa............"

Meng You'er cried and hissed as hard as she could, her throat was hoarse, and she rushed to the wooden house again and again, but she was rebounded back again and again, bruised and purple in many places, and even shed blood in many places, but she didn't give up at all.

However, there was no movement in the wooden house, and the wooden 'door' was closed.

"You'er!" Xuan Chen shouted, quickly ran over and hugged You'er, his eyes were slightly moist, Meng You'er was too kind, people were very pitiful when they saw him, and he could be a stranger, let alone her grandfather.

"Grandpa, don't you want You'er anymore?" Meng You'er shouted softly, and finally, her heart was exhausted, and she was too sad, and she fainted and fell unconscious.

"You'er, You'er. Xuanchen shouted, sighed deeply, after all, he didn't call her again, perhaps, let her rest.

Then he picked up Meng You'er and gently placed it on the wooden chair not far away.

Xuan Chen took a deep look at the wooden house, as if he had made a decision.

Xuan Chen walked to the wooden house, silent for a long time, and suddenly his eyes glowed with two glints, as if he had seen through the wooden house.

Xuan Chen's face couldn't help but change, because he saw an old man, wrapped in black cloth, surrounded by a black 'color' fog, the black cloth was very tattered, as if thousands of years had passed, corroded.

Xuanchen knew that in the black cloth, it should be Meng You'er's grandfather.

The old man sat cross-legged, and Xuan Chen could vaguely see that under the black cloth, there was an aging face, the face was wrinkled and sloppy, without the slightest blood, and it was even covered with a lot of abscesses, and a trace of disgusting pus flowed out.

"I see, the granddaughter is so filial, and the grandfather is so loving, but it's a pity that God's will 'makes' people. Xuan Chen sighed.

Xuanchen knew that the old man was not terminally ill, but that his longevity had descended, and he had entered the five decays of heaven and man, and it was by no means curable by 'medicine', but the old man was not too sad for Meng You'er, so he held on for several years and waited for Meng You'er to grow up.

To Xuan Chen's surprise, Meng You'er's grandfather turned out to be a cultivator!

"Junior Xuan Chen, I've seen my senior!" Xuan Chen said cautiously, and saluted respectfully in the direction of the wooden house.

"The predecessors love the most, You'er is the most filial, why don't you see the last side of You'er?" Xuan Chen said.

However, there was not the slightest movement inside, there was silence for a while, and Xuan Chen was about to continue to say something, but there was an old, ethereal voice from inside.

"Get out of here with you. ”

Xuanchen was happy in his heart, the old man finally spoke, indicating that there was still hope for consolation, but his face was very heavy, and a trace of displeasure flashed, "Why should I listen to you, you and I don't know each other, we have nothing to do with it, you are You'er's relative, you don't care about You'er's life and death, why should I care about her!"

There was silence in the wooden house for a long time, and then the old man sighed: "You just want to know how to get out of here, I can tell you the way." ”

Xuan Chen was surprised in his heart, thinking that the old man had already known that he existed, so he shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I can find the method myself, I don't need the favor of my predecessors, but You'er once saved me, in order to prevent You'er from waking up and continuing to be sad, I have to be sorry for my predecessors." ”

After that, Xuan Chen stepped forward, a light flashed in his hand, and at some point, a 'jade' pen appeared in his hand.

With a slight wave of the pen, a 'wave' pattern of ink 'color' appeared, and the Nine Shadows Light Curtain, which was originally invisible, was actually cut through a small opening.

"You?" The old man was slightly angry, but there was a hint of surprise, although he saw Xuan Chen's cultivation in the Dust Realm, but he didn't expect Xuan Chen to be able to break through the small Feng Shui array he had set up.

Xuan Chen ignored the old man's anger and differences, stepped through the light curtain, and then gently retreated from the wooden house, a corrosive smell suddenly hit his face, and Xuan Chen couldn't help frowning.

Xuan Chen held his breath and stepped into the cabin, where a black-robed old man sat on a wooden bed.

"The pen in your hand?" The old man suddenly looked stunned, and looked at the Heavenly Pen in Xuan Chen's hand for a while.

"This pen, called Yutian, what do the predecessors think?" Xuanchen said lightly, for a while, the old man will definitely not be embarrassed for him, not to mention, even if he snatches the Yutian pen, he will definitely not be able to save his 'life', the so-called human will die, his heart is also good, if it was before, maybe he will rob it, as for now, he has entrusted Yu Xuanchen, naturally he will not do such a thing.

"Good pen!" the old man sighed with a deep breath.

Xuan Chen nodded lightly, moved a wooden chair, sat on the side lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Presumably the predecessors are not nameless, they can control the qi of the Nine Shades, and there are no more than a few feng shui masters in the world." ”

The old man glanced at Xuan Chen in surprise, looking pale and weak, "Presumably you are not an ordinary person, reincarnated and re-cultivated?" Although I don't know how you came here, it is the will of heaven to come." ”

Xuan Chen's heart was shocked, and then he smiled again: "The predecessors said that they were joking, cultivating immortals don't believe in reincarnation, otherwise the predecessors would not be in the five decays of heaven and man." ”

The old man shook his head, his face was very dark, thoughtful, sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Reincarnation? This reincarnation is not the reincarnation of the other, maybe it is the sorrow of the cultivator." ”

Xuan Chen also nodded, thinking that the old man had no malice, he was about to die, as the saying goes, people are dying and their words are good.

"Nine Shades Qi, why don't the seniors give it a go?" After thinking about it, Xuan Chen asked.
