Chapter 45: A Year of Change
In a newly opened cave on the mountain wall, Yang Peng, who only had half of his body left, was lying on a stone bed.
"Apprentice, you have a good rest here, and the teacher will go to find a healing elixir for you. Xie Yun said to Yang Peng.
"Incompetent...... Involved the master to run around. ”
"Silly apprentice, you are my proud disciple, how can I let you die so easily. ”
After saying that, Xie Yun turned to Ye Qingsheng and asked, "What has happened in the cultivation realm of the Great Kang Mansion in the past year, you can give me one by one." ”
Ye Qingsheng didn't recognize the two who had changed their appearances, but when he saw that one of their masters and apprentices was arrogant and the other was unparalleled in swordsmanship, he couldn't help but connect the two of them with Li Xiaoyao, who were famous in the cultivation world.
At that moment, Ye Qingsheng was respectful, and he didn't dare to reply in the slightest: "If you want to say that in the first half of this year, the most sensational thing is the wine sword immortal master and apprentice who suddenly appeared in the cultivation realm of Dakang Mansion. ”
Ye Qingsheng observed Xie Yun's face as he spoke, but Xie Yun's face was expressionless, and Ye Qingsheng didn't see anything, so he continued: "That Wine Sword Immortal Master and Apprentice first killed more than 20 monks of various factions outside Dakang City, and then fought with Li Daoting, the young valley master of Falling Snow Valley, on the Immortal Shadow Lake on the first day of Dakang Mansion, and finally Li Daoting died, provoking Li Taiqing, the owner of Falling Snow Valley, to turn white overnight, angrily killing dozens of disciples of various factions on the painting boat that night, and swore not to kill the Wine Sword Immortal master and apprentice!"
Xie Yun was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect there to be such a thing.
I only heard Ye Qingsheng continue: "It's a pity that the Falling Snow Valley was originally a supergiant of Dakang Mansion, after this difficulty, the valley owner Li Taiqing was crazy, and he didn't care about the affairs of the valley, wandering in the outside world, and bent on avenging his son." The elders of Luoxue Valley persuaded them many times to no avail, and after adding the pressure of the elite disciples killed by Li Taiqing, they finally decided to remove Li Taiqing from the position of the valley master, and many disciples, and even some elders, were disheartened by Luoxue Valley and left one after another. Luoxue Valley was suddenly reduced from a first-class sect of the Great Kang Mansion to a third-rate sect. ”
Although Xie Yun sighed at Li Taiqing, he did not have the slightest mercy, it can be said that all this was his godson and self-inflicted.
"And half a year ago, suddenly a fierce beast fell from the sky, and landed on the mountain hundreds of miles outside Dakang City, but it was a plague beast recorded in ancient books Yujiang, that Yujiang was sometimes awake and sometimes asleep, and the black wind gusted when he was awake. ”
Hearing this, Xie Yun asked, "Could it be that those cultivators don't plan to take care of this matter?"
Ye Qingsheng replied: "Since the fall of the Dakang Mansion, the original allies Zixu Dao and the Cangsong Sect have fought openly and secretly for the leadership of the Dakang Mansion, and no one can overwhelm anyone. And those cultivators were afraid that Yujiang would attack their mountain gate when he was sober, so they all recalled the disciples outside to guard the mountain gate. ”
Xie Yun was deeply touched by this, when the old order was broken and the new order could not be established, if it was invaded by foreign enemies, it would indeed be an unimaginable disaster.
Xie Yun thought for a moment and asked again, "I heard that you have an elixir that can cure the plague, why don't you spread it to the world and survive this calamity?"
Ye Qingsheng said with a wry smile: "Master, don't you know, that pill also costs money, I am a poor boy, where did I get so many spirit stones to buy, the only little spirit stone I bought all the pills, it was only enough to buy so few." I was also afraid that if the plague spread out of the Great Kang Mansion and other places, I was prepared for the fear of my family in the mortal world. If I hadn't passed by that village and saw that the children in the village were really pitiful, I would have been reluctant to take out the pill and give it away. ”
"Where can I buy the pill?" Xie Yun asked.
"Luofeng Mountain," Ye Qingsheng replied, "I heard that Luofeng Mountain has recently held a meeting of various factions, and wants to elect the leaders of each faction to lead the heroes against Yujiang. ”
"Oh, what kind of ability does Luofeng Mountain have, and it has such appeal?" Xie Yun was puzzled, he had been to Luofeng Mountain once, and he didn't go deeper, he just wandered around the stalls where the monks did business, and he also went to the mission hall to receive the task, but he didn't know anything else about Luofeng Mountain.
"The masters don't know that Luofeng Mountain does not belong to any sect, it belongs to a loose cultivator. ”
"Loose cultivation?" Xie Yun was even stranger now.
"That's right, the masters must also know that it is more difficult to survive in the world of casual cultivation than in the sect, and casual cultivation is often unable to enter the sect due to insufficient qualifications, or unruly surnames, so in the world of casual cultivation, there is an extreme shortage of weapons, spirit stones, pills and the like, and it often happens that there is a life-and-death struggle for a few spirit stones. It is in such a cruel environment that all those who can survive and break through to the foundation are all strong. ”
Saying this, Ye Qingsheng glanced at Xie Yun, and then continued: "That Yang Muyun, the lord of Luofeng Mountain, is even more of a leader in the scattered cultivation of the Dakang Mansion, and he has always been ambitious. Everyone said that Yang Muyun was by no means a thing in the pool, and when he encountered the right time, he would definitely show his strength. ”
Xie Yun thought for a moment and then asked, "What about the evil path cultivator?"
Ye Qingsheng said disdainfully: "The evil monk has always been angry with people and gods, just like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats. If it weren't for this catastrophe in Dakang Mansion this time, everyone would be in danger and have no intention of taking care of it, otherwise how would those evil monks dare to appear in Dakang Mansion. ”
Xie Yun thought about it, and immediately made up his mind that he must go to Luofeng Mountain for a trip, he also has some spirit stones on his body now, especially the treasure bag seized after killing Li Daoting, which has five thousand spirit stones, which can be regarded as a huge amount of money.
Besides, there are many monks on Luofeng Mountain who are trading, maybe there is an elixir that Yang Peng needs to heal his injuries, so Xie Yun said to Ye Qingsheng: "Then it is troublesome for Daoist friends to accompany me to Luofeng Mountain." ”
Ye Qingsheng smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Master, you are so powerful, what do you want me to do as a kid with low cultivation?"
Xie Yun pointed at Yang Peng and said, "You also saw that my apprentice was injured here, and you also know the location of this cave, what if you are not by my side and betray our whereabouts?"
Ye Qingsheng said: "Master, I will never betray you, I can swear!"
Xie Yun shook his head: "I don't believe in any oath, if you don't follow me, it's okay, there is another way." ”
"What's the way?" Ye Qingsheng hurriedly asked.
"Kill you. Xie Yun said, "Dead people will not betray me." ”
Ye Qingsheng suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face: "Then I'll follow you." ”
At that moment, the two of them set off immediately, Xie Yun thought that Ye Qingsheng was walking too slowly, so he grabbed his shoulders more and flew up, flying in the sky.
However, Xie Yun's first flight in the sky was extremely unskilled, swaying left and right from time to time, which scared Ye Qingsheng's legs weak, and his eyes were closed and he didn't dare to open them.
Xie Yun flew higher and higher, only feeling that the sky was getting closer and closer to him, and he couldn't help but have an impulse to fly all the way up to see what was above the nine heavens. But he quickly stopped this thought, the extremely high part of the sky was filled with extremely violent winds, and no matter how powerful the monk was, as long as he was caught in it, he would not be able to escape the fate of his soul being scattered.
Flying is a wonderful thing, at first gradually detached from the growing earth, a sense of insecurity and fear pervades the whole body, and even makes people a little dizzy, but as they fly more and more freely, they suddenly like this magical feeling like an addiction.
The blue sky seems to be within reach, and the large white clouds are like kites on your fingertips, and if you gently hook them, they will come closer to you. The sky is like a huge blue and white porcelain bowl, upside down on the verdant earth, the world is at your feet, once you fly, you will feel beyond the world, looking down on them with the pride of a victor.
A strong sense of power filled Xie Yun's chest, he felt that it was difficult for him to get rid of this feeling, he felt that he could now decide the life and death of many people, and he also felt that he had gradually liked this feeling, and at the same time, there was also a fear in his heart whether those more powerful monks would also look down on him like he looked down on mortals. I must fly higher, Xie Yun said to himself, step by step, fly to the highest place, and never let anyone have the right to decide their own life and death, even the sky!
Ye Qingsheng's strange scream suddenly sounded in his ears, he seemed to be afraid of heights, he just opened his eyes and looked down, and suddenly screamed in fright, closed his eyes tightly and didn't dare to open them again.
Thanks to Ye Qingsheng's scream, Xie Yun suddenly woke up from that emotion, and he knew that his mood was in turmoil just now. The state of mind of the monastic path is very important, and every monk knows this thing, but the simple truth is difficult to do, once the cultivation reaches the bottleneck, once the state of mind is unstable, there is no hope of breaking through the bottleneck for the rest of his life. However, there are so many temptations in the world, and how many can really reach the ancient well without waves.
Xie Yun took two deep breaths and calmed his heart, he knew that he had not completely gotten rid of that feeling of being on top, and for a long time in the future, it would be like a leech attached to the bone for a long time, he didn't know if this was good or bad, maybe he could inspire himself to practice more diligently, or maybe he would let himself fall into the temptation of power and never turn over.
Luofeng Mountain arrived soon, this is the second time Xie Yun has come to Luofeng Mountain, with his divine sense of the foundation building period at this time, Luofeng Mountain is no longer as mysterious as the first time.
In the mountains, the formation is swirling, producing a mist that does not disperse all year round, presumably this is a hidden sect formation, so that people below the foundation building period cannot see where the mountain gate is, and they will not accidentally break into it. The teleportation array was still standing at the foot of the mountain, but outside there were thousands of people gathered, kneeling on the ground one after another, kowtowing to Luofeng Mountain, only asking the immortals on the mountain to give them a pill to cure diseases.
Xie Yun didn't want to be noticed, so he found a secluded place and landed. As soon as Ye Qingsheng landed, he knelt on the ground and vomited wildly.
Xie Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm afraid that if you break through to the foundation building stage in the future, why don't you give up flying in the sky and walk on foot like a monk in the Qi refining stage?"
Ye Qingsheng said as he spitted: "Master, how can I have such lofty ambitions, I can cultivate to the tenth level of Qi cultivation, and I can be an elder in our Lianlong Sect, and I can have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life." ”
Xie Yun shook his head, lifted Ye Qingsheng, and walked towards the teleportation array.
