Chapter Eighty-Four: Inside the Mountain Gate

Jin Ling and Lie Yan looked at the world in front of them in amazement.

Who would have thought that before he was still struggling in the ice and snow, the next step would be to enter the warm spring-like paradise!

From here, there is a green color that stretches as far as the eye can see. The entire view is filled with a large area of dense and vigorous forest, and there are almost no gaps. Only a small path winds its way in, and the path leads to a secluded path. There are birds singing and flowers singing, bees and butterflies dancing, as well as clear springs and waterfalls, and small mountains and flowing water. As far as the eye can see, a piece of flowers is red and willow green, full of greenery.

In the distance, you can see a light veil-like mist drifting between the valleys and ravines, birds and birds rising and falling, jagged mountains, abrupt peaks, and strange rocks. Those thousand-year-old trees are dotted among the cliffs, hidden in the mist, a transcendent scene.

The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and the spring sun is shining, how can there be the slightest cloudy and snowy sky? Under the sun, there is a scene of vitality everywhere, which is in sharp contrast to the endless snowfields outside the mountain.

But just a mountain away, there are two worlds!

"Ahh......h

"Herod......" Flame couldn't help but step on his hooves and dangle around.

Breathing in the familiar breath here, Li Xuanji smiled with satisfaction.

"Who is coming? This is the Qingzhu Gatekeeper, please stop!"

A distant sound sounded, echoing among the mountains. Two blue rays of light flew from a stone peak a hundred zhang away, and they arrived in an instant. The blue light disappeared, but it was two young men who came with Edgeworth. The two of them wore their hair in a bun, held long swords, wore pale cyan robes, and embroidered a bamboo leaf on their chests.

The two originally faced each other with swords, but after seeing clearly who it was, they hurriedly put down the long sword and inserted it into the scabbard, and saluted happily: "Uncle Xiao, it turns out that you are back!"

"I really didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Uncle Xiao, and I hope Uncle Xiao will forgive me!"

Li Xuanji saw the two people saluting, raised his legs and jumped, jumped off the back of the scorching flame, waved his hand and said: "The two of you are exempt from courtesy, and now the two of you who are on duty at the mountain gate are Changji and Guangshi, see what kind of etiquette I am still doing." When I first came in and asked to go out, I still had to call you two senior brothers, and we have been together for ten years, why have you two become so polite again after I have only been away for more than three months? Are we strangers so soon?"

Changji and Guangshi laughed and stopped being polite.

"Little Uncle, when you left, there were only two people, you and Little Sister Jin Ning. Just now, this dragon foal jumped in, and we didn't think it was you who came back, and thought that an outsider had lost his way and broke in. Nagayoshi smiled.

Li Xuanji waved his hand and said, "This is your long luck." The entrance of the Qingzhu Gate is guarded by a formation, and I have never heard of anyone rushing in in the past few hundred years. It is said that even during the turmoil more than a hundred years ago, hundreds of cultivators searched Xichuan, but none of them could find our mountain gate. You don't have to worry about that. ”

Changji said embarrassedly: "What Uncle Xiao said is very true!"

Another young man, Guangshi, said with a smile: "Uncle Xiao has been out of the mountain for more than three months this time, and I remember that this is your first time in the WTO, and there has been no news for more than three months. There are many dangers in the outside world, and we thought that something happened to you, which really made our brothers and sisters worry to death. However, the head of the sect and the elders said that there is no need to worry, you and Junior Sister Jin Ning will definitely be safe. ”

After Guangshi finished speaking, he turned his head to look behind Li Xuanji, but saw a strange beautiful girl sitting in the back. And the girl was also looking at herself with a pair of bright and delicate eyes at this time, and she couldn't help but blush, and turned her head in embarrassment.

"Uncle Junior, ...... this girl?"

Li Xuanji looked at Changji and Guangshi's puzzled eyes, then took Jin Ling off Lieyan's back, raised his hand and introduced: "This is Jin Ling, the girl I brought back from outside this time. ”

"Jin Ning?!" Changji and Hiroshi were stunned.

Li Xuanji smiled: "Wrong, it's not Jin Ning, it's Jin Ling, Lingxiu's Ling!"

"Oh, it turned out to be Jin Ling, and the name of Jin Ning's junior sister is really similar. Nagayoshi replied.

Li Xuanji smiled. He wouldn't tell anyone that he had chosen the name on purpose. He just wanted to deliberately call the little fox Jin Ling's name in front of Jin Ning, in order to tease her, but he didn't expect the little fox to turn into a human overnight, and he didn't know if he could tease Jin Ning.

"Little Senior Uncle......" Guangshi shouted, then stepped forward and whispered to him in his ear and asked, "You brought this Jinling girl back, do you want her to also worship under our Qingzhu Sect and become our new junior sister?"

Li Xuanji was a little speechless when he looked at his twisted appearance and slightly dodging gaze.

The disciples who can guard the mountain gate of Qingzhumen are at least in the early stage of the Manifestation Realm, and Guangshi has reached the middle stage of the Manifest Dao, otherwise he would not be able to fly with the sword. If you put such a cultivation in the Dragon City, you can be the head of the family, and there are countless women who throw yourself into your arms. But now the cultivator in the middle stage of the dignified Dao actually took the initiative to inquire about the name of the strange woman, and he looked like he was in turmoil. What does this look like?

Although the Qingzhumen is thin, there are less than 100 people, but there are no thirty or forty female disciples among them, and because they are all cultivators, the female disciples are very beautiful. Except for many people who are dedicated to cultivation and do not want to find a Taoist partner, the distribution of men and women is quite reasonable. In fact, even if you really can't find a Taoist companion, you can go out of the mountain and enter the world when you don't want to practice in the future. As long as you strictly guard the secret of Qingzhumen, there is no problem at all with getting married and having children. It's only been three months, could it be that the disciples in the sect are already hungry and thirsty to this extent?

Li Xuanji watched Guangshi dodge by Jin Ling's gaze, his face was blushing, and he was even more speechless!

As for such innocence, he is also a cultivator in the middle stage of the Manifest Dao Realm, and he has been cultivating here for decades, ignoring the things outside the window, and only reading the books of the sages and sages......

Well, Li Xuanji has to admit that almost everyone in the Qingzhu Gate is an otaku and a girl, the kind of otaku who wants to die. After decades or hundreds of years of painstaking practice, except for reading the cultivation classics is to be accompanied by mountains and rivers, except for being able to apply for going out for training after cultivating in the future, there is no chance to contact the outside world at all. Even the few vernacular novels in the Tibetan Scripture Hall are mythological stories and have no romance. It's no wonder these people are not pure!

Li Xuanji thought in the blink of an eye and understood Guangshi's heart. patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Jin Ling is a little special, whether she can enter the master or not depends on her meaning." I'll have to take her to meet the master and my master first. ”

Changji on the side didn't twist like Guangshi, although he was also shocked by Jin Ling, but he was much calmer.

It's just that he looked at the silent first-line heavenly passage and frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Little Senior Uncle, didn't Little Senior Sister Jin Ning come back with you?"

Li Xuanji was taken aback, turned his head and asked, "Isn't that girl Jin Ning back yet?"

Changji and Guangshi glanced at each other, puzzled: "Since the fight more than three months ago, Junior Sister Jin Ning went out of the mountain with you, and she has never come back. Didn't you come back together?

Li Xuanji felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, and said in a low voice: "When I went out with Jin Ning, I encountered some things, and she was injured a little. Later, she said that she wanted to go back to her family, and told me that I didn't have to wait for her, and that she would go back to the teacher herself. I encountered something on the way back, and it was delayed for almost a month, and I thought she had come back before me, but I didn't expect her to have not arrived. ”

After hearing this, Changji breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Uncle Xiao, don't worry, it is definitely not wrong for the little junior sister to say that she wants to go back to the family, maybe she has not been home for too long and is too homesick, and she wants to stay in the family for a few more days." I think I'll come back when I've had enough. ”

Li Xuanji shook his head and said, "No, I have to report this matter to the senior brother in charge quickly." If there is a problem in it, the senior brother in charge should have something to deal with. ”

"Okay, the two of us still need to guard the mountain gate, so we won't accompany Uncle Xiaoshi. "Nagayoshi and Hiroshi arched their hands.

At this moment, a loud eagle's cry came from high in the sky.

Everyone raised their heads, only to see a white figure flying from afar in the sky, as fast as a sharp arrow. Its wings spread out several feet wide, and each feather resembled a wide sword. Its wings flapped vigorously and at great speed, and when it lowered its altitude, the forest beneath it was filled with gusts of wind and waves. When it approached everyone, it turned over nimbly, and its body turned sharply upward, straight into the blue sky.

When Li Xuanji saw it, he raised his hand and waved it to the sky, shouting, "Changkong-"

"Uh-hh

Jin Ling hid behind Li Xuanji, looking curiously at the huge figure churning in the sky, she had a natural fear of this kind of spirit beast.

"Jin Ling, don't be afraid. Li Xuanji pulled Jin Ling's reassuring and said to her: "This is the spirit beast Bai Peng raised by my senior sister Situ Zuiqiu, its name is Changkong, it will not harm you." Now that it's coming, I think its mother is about to arrive. ”

“...... Mother?" When Jin Ling heard this, he was even more afraid.

As soon as he said this, a tiger roar that shook the mountains came, and a huge white-haired giant tiger sprang out of the forest and landed in front of everyone.

The white tiger's head was like a hill, its head was much larger than a grinding plate, its four legs were as thick as a pillar, the hooks on its claws were as sharp as a sickle, and the two tiger teeth in its mouth were sharp and domineering. When it suddenly jumped in front of everyone's eyes, everyone had a feeling of bloody rain blowing in their faces. Lie Yan counted down the hairs all over his body and was ready for battle, while Jin Ling was so frightened that he buried his head in Li Xuanji's back and didn't dare to come out.

With such momentum, I'm afraid that the bear king in the Dragon City will have to be hated under the claws of the white tiger when he comes.

Li Xuanji looked at the white tiger and shouted happily: "Big cat." Long time no see!"

The white tiger retracted his posture, squinted his eyes at the fierce flame that seemed to be facing a great enemy, and then strolled in front of Li Xuanji, pressing his huge head against his chest and rubbing it gently.

“...... Big cat, is it a cat?" Jin Ling slowly poked his head out from behind him, looked at the huge white tiger, and asked curiously.

"Huh-" In response to her, there was a whistle that almost burst her ears, and Jin Ling was so frightened that she retracted her head again.

Li Xuanji explained to Jin Ling with a smile: "It is also a spirit beast raised by Senior Sister Situ, although its name is Big Cat, it is like a fake white tiger, and it was once a hegemon in the Xichuan Snow Plain. But you don't have to be afraid of it, because it won't hurt you with your ability. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and patted the white tiger's huge head, "Okay, big cat, don't scare her anymore." Since you know that you came here to pick me up, did they already know that I was back?"

The white tiger nodded, then prostrate himself on the ground, signaling that he could ride up.

"Well, then we'll go see them. After Li Xuanji finished speaking, he asked Jin Ling behind him, "Jin Ling, are you interested in riding a white tiger with me?"

Jin Ling hugged Li Xuanji's shoulder, felt that he was not so scared, and said loudly: "...... Yes!"

The white tiger carried Li Xuanji and Jin Ling, took a step, turned around and ran out. Blazing Flame leaped and followed.

"Senior Brother Changji, it's not easy for me to look at Uncle Xiao's dragon horse. I wasn't even scared by the big cat. Hiroshi looked at the departing figure and asked Nagayoshi.

Chang Ji looked at the fiery figure and said enviously: "Of course it's not easy, it's a well-trained fire dragon horse!

"Damn, really?!" Guangshi was shocked: "Uncle Xiao went out and took a spin and caught a fire dragon horse, is the outside world so easy to mix? ”

"Don't do that!" Changji hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What kind of person Uncle Xiao is, we all know it. Even if the cultivation is poor, it is much stronger than you and me in other aspects. What he can do is not necessarily something you and I can do. If you dare to apply for mountain training, even if the real person in charge agrees, I am afraid that you will be lost in the outside world. ”

"Well, that's right. Hiroshi sighed.

"Two--then--this is a gift for you......" a distant voice came.

Nagayoshi and Hiroshi looked up in response, only to see a black object flying from a distance. The two of them hurriedly stretched out their hands to take a look, and when they held it in their arms, they saw that it was two sets of clothes and shoes, as well as a few bags of desserts and fruits, and there was even a jar of wine among them!

The two of them were overjoyed, and shouted at the figure that had disappeared over there, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao-"

Guangshi smiled and flipped through the clothes in his arms, smelled the dessert in his hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle Xiao is really good, don't forget to bring us gifts back when you go out." Brother, look, he has come so far, and he still doesn't forget to give us the gifts. ”

After waiting for a while, he didn't hear Changji's answer, and turned his head to look at Changji, only to see Changji staring blankly in the direction where Li Xuanji left.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

Changji looked down at the gift in his arms, and said with a slightly disappointed smile: "Haven't you noticed it, junior brother, if Uncle Xiao can send these things to you and me from such a distance, my cultivation is probably already above you and me!"

"What?!" Hiroshi was stunned.

Changji sniffed the sweet pastry in his hand, and smiled helplessly: "It's worthy of a little uncle, everything you do is convincing!"
