The wind fell from the sky, the flowers drifted with the waves, the sky and the earth were vast, the lightning like the silver snake hit the earth from the sky, and a rainstorm was coming.

In the east of the Dragon Soul Continent, in the territory of the Yue Kingdom, the continuous mountains are like undulating black snakes. There are many dark shadows, and you can't see the beginning and the end at a glance.

Another thunderbolt fell, and the miserable white lightning illuminated Long Yunzhou's face, and he raised his head, and the cold wind blew his hair and danced wildly, instantly blocking his vision.

"I said, brothers, bosses, where are we going? This day is changing? It's still sunny just now. ”

The fire-seeking group of eight was divided into three teams at this time. Huangfu Ying and Xuanyuan Yu walked proudly at the front of the team, with the two of them never admitting defeat and being extremely proud, it is reasonable to be the boss of the team.

Long Yunzhou and Su Yao walked in the middle, and the three beautiful women who looked like flowers surrounded the nominal boss of the fire-seeking group, making Long Yunzhou look like a child of a family who hugged left and right.

Following Lin Feng and Yang Song from afar, Yang Song always has a funeral expression, no one wants to go with him, and he is not very willing to get close to others. Only Lin Feng occasionally accosted him a few words when he had nothing to say in order to take care of the overall situation, but what he got was always silence, and the two of them had long stopped talking a word.

It's been the seventh day since they left the Heavenly Dao Academy, and this group of people has always been like this. Although Long Yunzhou was the boss of this mission, he didn't dare to really regard himself as the boss.

Anyone here who picks out is a character who gives people a thumbs up, and he, a newcomer, still dares to put on a stand in front of the bosses? Long Yunzhou has not yet realized that he will go to hell in advance.

"You're the boss of this mission, you shouldn't be asking us this question, right?" Xuanyuan Yu turned his head, his sharp eyes could kill.

Long Yunzhou felt as if his whole body was cold, and he smiled dryly: "Boss, don't shiver me, you are my real boss, how dare my little brother be presumptuous in front of you!"

Xuanyuan Yu snorted and turned his head, obviously very satisfied with the self-knowledge of his subordinates.

"This has arrived in the Yue country, and we should be in the Baili Mountains of the Yue country now. According to the instructions of the master, Fenglin Mountain Villa is in the depths of Baili Mountain, and our route is correct. ”

Huangfu Ying looked at Long Yunzhou lightly and solved this problem for him.

"Oh, it's good to get there, the ghost weather here is really depressing!" Su Yao fanned himself hard, and before the heavy rain came, the air was so dull that people wanted to soak in the cold water and never come out again.

Yue Kingdom is only a small country on the Dragon Soul Continent, and there are only three cities it occupies. Because it is located in the remote eastern frontier, close to the inaccessible East China Sea, no one wants to come here.

It is barren and desolate, and two-thirds of the territory of the country is uninhabited mountains. Fierce beasts are often infested in the mountains, so Yue is also one of the three worst countries in the Dragon Soul Continent.

"Senior brother, why does Fenglin Villa want to be in this place where birds don't? Isn't it our Outer Gate Villa? It should be very imposing and majestic, but it looks like a frontier here," Long Yunzhou learned to be a good man now, and he didn't go to Xuanyuan Yu to ask for himself again, and asked in a whisper close to Huangfu Ying's side.

Xuanyuan Yu on the side pricked up his ears, in fact, he didn't know much about Wind Forest Villa, when he was in the academy, he only occasionally heard of such a place. The location is desolate, inhumane, full of fierce beasts, and miasma. The people in the villa are still very rude, and every time the envoy who comes to the academy to pay tribute is a little arrogant, not like a serious outer disciple.

Huangfu Ying coughed, and the wind blew, but not even a corner of his clothes was blown. The long sword in white is as chic as a swordsman of a wandering ranger. The knife-cut face made him seem to become one with the wind.

"Actually, I don't know much about Wind Forest Villa, every time they pay tribute, they don't pay tribute on time, and it seems that they deliberately stagger the time with other outer doors. And every time they come, they are not the main characters of the villa, they all send some insignificant second-rate disciples to pay tribute. That mysterious Wind Forest Zhuang Master Lin Wuxian had never been to the academy, and even the head master had never seen him, and their correspondence with each other was all based on letters!"

"So mysterious?" Long Yunzhou opened his mouth wide, fantasizing in his heart how mysterious the Wind Forest Villa is, that Lin Wuxian is simply **-explosion-heavenly, an elder of the outer gate, he never visits the head of the main family, is there still a royal law?

"Yes, before leaving, I deliberately paid attention to ask the origin of the head of the master, Fenglin Villa. It turns out that this Wind Forest Mountain Villa has existed for thousands of years, and it was not until more than three hundred years ago that it belonged to our Heavenly Dao Academy!"

"Because at that time, the demons were rampant and invaded the Dragon Soul Continent, and even this barren land in the easternmost part could not escape the scourge of the demons. The Wind Forest Villa could only turn to the powerful Heavenly Dao Academy at that time, and was willing to use the financial resources of the entire villa to be loyal to the academy, and from then on it would be the outer gate of the academy and guard this barren wasteland. ”

Huangfu Ying looked into the distance, and seemed to see the past of blood and fire: "Because of this reason, the Heavenly Dao Academy led the world's righteous path to the aid of Fenglin Villa, and wiped out the demon forces that caused disaster in the eastern frontier in one fell swoop. Wind Forest Villa was also subsumed under the Heavenly Dao Academy. However, although it was a surrender, the Wind Forest Villa refused to allow the academy's personnel to enter the villa, and they were only willing to promise to devote all their financial resources to the academy's oath of allegiance on the grounds of ancestral training. ”

"The Heavenly Dao Academy has always taken the common people of the world as its own responsibility, and has not coveted power or wealth, so it naturally agreed to the request of the Wind Forest Villa. Over the years, Wind Forest Villa has paid tribute every year, and the academy has never asked about the affairs of Wind Forest Villa. Nominally, Wind Forest Villa is affiliated with our academy, but in fact, we don't know as much about it as we know about the demons!"

Long Yunzhou had a bitter face: "So, let's just go to a distant relative's house that is only a little related, and then hand over the letter from the head of the family to them, and finally ask them to hand over the heirloom to us very arrogantly, and let them go bankrupt and drink the northwest wind?"

Huangfu Ying was stunned for a moment, but then nodded: "According to our task, that's what it means." ”

This answer is too direct, Long Yunzhou stared at Huangfu Ying with wide eyes: "Senior brother, we are no different from bandits." When did robbing houses become our forte?"

"Hmph! It was originally our academy's villa, even if they took out the family heirloom treasures, what if they took out the family heirlooms? With the protection of the academy, they will be safe for the rest of their lives. Treasures are possessed only by those who possess strength. ”

Xuanyuan Yu looked at Long Yunzhou with burning eyes: "Although I really want to admit that I am more powerful than you, but it is better for you to have such an artifact as Zixiao Tinder." ”

"Boss, are you praising me in disguise?" Long Yunzhou was worried.

"I'm jealous of you. Xuanyuan Yu turned his head sharply and strode forward.

Yun'er smiled and poked Long Yunzhou's arm: "Brother Zhou, even Senior Brother Xuanyuan is jealous of you, hehe, you are really amazing!"

"Well, I feel like my head is going to explode right now. Long Yunzhou covered his head, not feeling any joy, but feeling that trouble had slowly followed.

The air was so dreary that even the birds on the branches stopped chirping, and the sky was getting grayer and grayer, but the rain that should have been pouring down was delayed, and now everyone was looking forward to the end of this tedious journey.

"Look, there's a house up ahead. Yun'er suddenly jumped up excitedly, and everyone immediately looked in the direction of her finger.

In front of the mountain col, a few wisps of cooking smoke rose up, and a corner of the thatched hut loomed, and in this desolate mountain, everyone who had not seen people for two days couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, I can finally have a hot meal!" Long Yunzhou cheered.

"This is probably the annex of Wind Forest Villa. Huangfu Ying also sighed: "It's not easy to live in this deep mountain." Only the villagers who call the Wind Forest Villa as their home are willing to stay here. ”

The group walked quickly towards the village in the mountain pass. The distance seems to be very close, but it is actually separated by a mountain. But this was already the territory of the Wind Forest Villa, so in order not to cause misunderstanding, they had to walk on foot, and by the time they arrived at the village, the sky was already dark.

It's a village of only six or seven families, and the small ones may not even be considered villages, but only a few families.

The smoke was curling, and it was already dinner time. The sky was thundering, and the sky was a little scary. Although it was not yet dark, the people in the mountains ate relatively early, and at this moment there were wisps of lonely smoke rising from the chimneys of every house.

The fire-seeking group of eight walked towards the largest room, the loess rammed earthen wall seemed to have been thrown at random with some thatch, and a simple room that could only live was half leaning against the slope and half on the flat ground, looking like a wild beast ready to run wild.

The earthen walls were covered with all kinds of unnamed prey, some of which had been stripped of their fur and had long since dried their bloody red, and some of which had probably just lost their breath, and the nerves of the epidermis were still beating.

"Who are you? You don't look like a good person. ”

Like a crisp bell, it was sent into everyone's ears by the wind layer by layer, and the pleasant moment forgot the fatigue. Everyone has never heard such a pleasant sound, as pleasant as the first warbler cry in the spring when everything is revived.

Looking up, a young girl sat on a roof of thatched straw. Just now, everyone only looked at the appearance of this room, but no one noticed that there was still a person sleeping in the thatch.

Her fiery red hair fluttered in the wind, her slender neck was as noble as a swan, the corners of her mouth had a sweet smile like the morning glow, and the silhouette in the darkness seemed to be wrapped in a haze.

"What about you, are you all dumb?" the red-haired girl seemed a little angry, and suddenly her whole body jumped up from the thatched pile. Yingying's unbearable figure immediately appeared, flying in the air, making people can't help but want to embrace this beauty.

The red-haired girl jumped in front of Huangfu Ying, and the girlish aura on her face made Huangfu Ying take two steps back in embarrassment. Just now, his expression was a little out of shape, not at all like his usual cold image.

With her hands on her waist, the red-haired girl with light-colored water lines rolled her eyes, glaring at Huangfu Ying: "Hey, what about you, it's not bad, why are you stupid?"

Huangfu Ying smiled dumbly, and the red-haired girl in front of her and Su Yao were about the same age. But he insisted on pretending to be fierce, like a child who puffed out his mouth.

"Am I funny? Say it, or I'm going to call someone. The red-haired girl was enraged by Huangfu Ying, and her expression became even more fierce. But in the eyes of everyone, it's a bright girl who is coquettish.

Huangfu Ying suppressed his smile and returned to his former calm and indifference: "Girl, may I ask if this is the other courtyard of the Wind Forest Villa? We are from the Heavenly Dao Academy, and we are here to ask to see Lin Wuxi, the owner of the Wind Forest Villa!"
