Part 1 Staggered Time and Space Chapter 2 The Spirit Stone of Fate

Section 167 First arrival in the forbidden land

Qiao'er is young after all, and she likes to talk very much, and she introduced Yueqing to Yueqing along the way, where this is, where it is.

After the carriage drove on the winding mountain road for half a day, Yueqing was a little sleepy, and the mountains in the forbidden land felt that there was still a long way away.

Yueqing yawned, "How far is this?" ”

Qi Jiao said with a smile: "Don't look at the mountain and look close, in fact, we may have to walk for half a day to get there." ”

"Well, the four elders won't be waiting there all the time."

"Naturally, you have to wait there, but the courtyard master doesn't have to worry too much, there are naturally resting places on the periphery of the forbidden land."

"Oh, I'm a little sleepy, let's rest for a while, Xiao Lingwei arrives and calls me."

Chang Yuxiao nodded: "Are you hungry?" Do you want to eat something before you go to bed? ”

"No, I'm going to sleep, I'll eat when I wake up. You don't have to worry about me, just eat it when you get to the meal. ”

Chang Yuxiao frowned, pulled the curtain for her, and covered the quilt.

When Yueqing opened her eyes, she was still walking in the carriage, "Xiao Lingwei, haven't you arrived yet?" ”

Chang Yuxiao turned his head, "Already awake?" Not yet there. ”

Yueqing sat up, "How long have I been asleep, why haven't I arrived yet?" ”

Qiao'er lifted the curtain: "The master of the courtyard is awake?" Are you hungry? Qiao'er left the cake for you, and it was still hot. ”

"Oh, not too hungry." Yueqing looked outside, "The mountain is so close, is it almost there?" ”

"It's coming, but we'll have to walk a little longer. The owner of the courtyard will eat something first. Qiao'er got up and went to the car, took out a paper bag from her arms and gave it to her.

"What to eat?"

"There aren't so many delicious pancakes on the road, but this pancake is also delicious."

When Yueqing opened it, she felt that it was quite hard, and when she took a bite, there was no special taste.

"Is it delicious?"

"It's okay, it's delicious. Qiao'er pulled the curtain open. ”

"Master, are you eating, what are you doing with the curtain?"

Yueqing looked at her strangely: "Can't I let people see what I eat?" ”

"Master of the courtyard, you have to be dignified, you look so ugly, if people outside the village see it, they will look down on you."

Yueqing was stunned for a moment, looked at Chang Yuxiao, and Chang Yuxiao smiled.

Yueqing said to Qiao'er: "Young housekeeper. ”

Qiao'er smiled: "The master of the courtyard drinks water." ”

It wasn't until Yueqing finished eating that Qiao'er let the curtains open. Yueqing looked at the mountain in front of her, and the carriage blocked and couldn't see how high it was. There were woods on both sides, and the place where the carriage was going was a smooth stone road, and I didn't know which way it was going. Every once in a while, two yellow-clad guards could be seen standing there, saluting when they passed.

I don't know how much has passed behind, and the further you go, the more guards there are. And then directly there were teams of people patrolling the roadside, and there were even sentry posts.

"Why are there so many guards?"

Qiao'er didn't know, and looked outside curiously, "Probably not to let people approach." ”

Yueqing smiled.

After a while, the carriage slowed down, and Chang Shen came over and said, "Courtyard Master, the four elders are waiting in front." ”

Yueqing looked out, and sure enough, not far away, the road saw the end, where there was a courtyard, and there were some houses in the courtyard that were not too high. The four elders and the deacons who came in front of them stood outside the courtyard gate. As far as the eye could see, there were guards dressed in blue and yellow.

The carriage stopped a little in front of them, and Qi Jiao went down to put the stepstool on the ground. Chang Yuxiao helped Yueqing get out of the carriage.

"See the Master of the Sunny Moon Academy."

"Get up."

"Master Xie Qingyue."

The four elders stepped forward and said, "The courtyard master has worked hard all the way. ”

"It's really far away, and it looks like it's pretty close." Yueqing replied.

Then he looked up at the nearest mountain in front of him. You can't see the top of the mountain at a glance, and the light is a little gloomy. The mountain was still some distance from them, and where they stood was surrounded by woods, with dead grass and fallen leaves, and man-made paths could be seen everywhere. A white mist could be seen in the depths of the forest, and the air was very humid.

"Isn't it to the edge of the mountain yet? You won't have to go again, will you? ”

"You don't have to go far, a little further ahead you'll get confused. The master could only look outside the obstacle, not near there. ”

Yueqing nodded.

"The courtyard master walks this way." The four elders said.

Yueqing nodded and followed him. "It's very comfortable air, but it feels a little depressing, and the light is not very good."

"At the foot of the hill the light is a little not very good. However, there is also a problem of time, the owner of the courtyard came late, and now it is almost dark. The sun can still be seen here before the morning. ”

"Are these Jin Wei usually here?"

"Yes, they need to stay here all year round."

"Oh, it's so hard." Yueqing was walking when she suddenly felt that someone was looking at it in the direction of the mountain. When he turned his head to look over, he saw only some guards standing guard in the forest, and he didn't know who was looking at him curiously.

"Can you go into the depths of this wood?"

"You can go over here, but it's all a small road, and the courtyard owner still takes the main road to be smoother."

"Oh, Fourth Elder, is the place where those guards are standing the boundary of the safe zone?"

"Yes, they are standing not far from the border. Going any further in, it's easy to get lost. ”

Yueqing nodded.

"It's the front, and this is the border."

Yue Qing looked at the place where the four elders had said, and the road they were walking had reached the end, and there was another sentry tower there, and Jin Wei was patrolling back and forth.

"How long is this boundary?"

"More than six thousand miles."

"How much? Six thousand? Village? ”

"Yes, it's very large."

Yue Qing was stunned, "Fourth Elder, this light boundary is so long, isn't the scope inside even bigger, have you ever thought about it, even if there is a Purple Soul Spirit Girl, how can she find that forbidden land, inch by inch of land?" ”

The fourth elder sighed: "It is indeed this problem, and the actual area may be larger than you imagined, because both sides of the border are high mountains, as for whether there are still high mountains, I don't know at the moment." ”

Yueqing looked up at the mountain, "Don't you all know how to fly?" Can't this mountain fly up? ”

"No, I've tried before, the mountain bordering the two sides is not only steep, but there is also the kind of energy on it like in the altar barrier. You can't climb it, but you can't climb it either. I'm not afraid that you're as dangerous as the altar. ”

"I see, are there golden guards guarding this long distance?"

"Of course, no one can come and explore here. They rotate four posts a day, and at intervals there are ten teams of twenty men patrolling back and forth. ”

Yueqing believed what Chang Yuxiao said, there were indeed a lot of these guards. So many people spend a lot of money just eating here.

"The villa does have money, so it invests so much manpower in order to guard this kind of place where you can enter but can't get out."

"The forbidden land is a place related to the goddess, and it is the belief of the mountain villa, so it is natural to invest in it."

"You really have high expectations for this goddess."

"The goddess is where the power lies. It's normal that the courtyard master doesn't understand now, you just need to know that the goddess is the hope of our villa. ”

"I see that your villa is already very powerful, and the five clans of the Chang clan are strong in ability and financial resources. It can even be compared to the country. Why do you need any goddesses? What do you want the goddess to do? I'm particularly curious. ”

The fourth elder said: "I don't know about this, I only know that the goddess can calm the strife and bring stability to the world. ”

Yueqing smiled, "What kind of strife do you have here?" How much power does the goddess have to calm disputes? ”

"The master of the courtyard has not gone outside, and the war in this world is everywhere. Of course, you won't feel it in the villa. ”

"Why, do you want that goddess to go out to war?"

"The old man doesn't know much about the goddess, and as for how she settled the dispute, there is no record in the villa. But in the final analysis, the goddess is also from the Chang family's spirit girl, and the old man can't agree with this kind of thing. ”

"Hey, how can this goddess say that she is also a member of the five clans of your mountain villa, you don't know, so you don't know about it outside, right? Is there a legend of a goddess outside the villa? ”

"It should be that I don't know, the outside world only knows about the villa, and I won't even know about the spirit girl of the villa."

Yueqing pouted, is the secrecy work so good?

"By the way, Fourth Elder, are there guards further afield?"

"Nope."

"So who's in there?"

The four elders looked into the depths of the woods, "Why did the Qingyue Courtyard Master ask that?" ”

"Huh? No one? Why do I keep feeling like someone is watching here? ”
