Chapter Twenty-Four: Encounters

Gu Nian's sudden departure made Shen Yue a little uncomfortable, and he didn't bother to look for the stubble of those spirit beasts for a few days after that, except for meditation and cultivation, he meditated and cultivated, and transformed into an otherworldly otaku again. The animals that Xiao Huan called, Shen Yue also ate very little: anyway, in his current realm, he can satisfy himself just by absorbing spiritual energy.

A week later, the first snow of winter fell, and in a short time the goose-feather snow swept up and down, dyeing the world white, and the mountains and forests were quieter after the snow, except for the occasional sound of clattering branches breaking.

Shen Yue has gradually gotten rid of the discomfort of his friend's departure, and has just finished today's cultivation, and the faint red glow around his body has disappeared: after this week's efforts, he has finally mastered the cultivation method of the "Condensing Yan Jue", and successfully absorbed the fire spiritual energy for the first time, although the spiritual energy in his body is very weak now, but his attempt to cultivate a variety of five elements spiritual methods has still taken a solid step.

Gu Nian talked about the evaluation criteria of their sect: no matter what kind of aura, if it can be induced into the body within a week, it means that the qualifications for cultivating this kind of aura are superior, and if it is shorter than three days, it is excellent. Shen Yue's initial introduction of wood spiritual qi into his body was, after all, in a place like the mountains and forests, where wood spirits were abundant, and the cultivation of fire spiritual qi was all based on comprehension, and there was no external force to borrow. Compared to the two, he felt that his qualifications for fire spirituality might be even better.

He got up and walked out, strolling in the snow, looking at the mountains covered in silver in the distance, the afternoon sun after the snow reflected a golden light on the snowy woods, he had never seen such a natural scenery in his previous life, and couldn't help but chant the Tang Dynasty poet Zu Yong's "Zhongnan Looking at the Remaining Snow": "The end of the south is beautiful, and the snow is floating in the clouds." The forest shows that the darkness is dark, and the twilight in the city is cold. ”

"It's a good poem, but what kind of mountain is Zhongnan?" An abrupt voice sounded from behind Shen Yue, causing the hairs on the back of his neck to stand on end, and he instinctively jumped forward quickly, and at the same time, he turned around in the air and looked back, and found a beautiful woman dressed in the costume of Nei Jingji standing about twenty meters away from him.

This woman's costume was obviously more gorgeous and complicated than the official he had seen before: the standard costume was dotted with intricate runes, and the center of the blouse was also decorated with a large pattern of the sacred beast Suzaku. Against the backdrop of this costume, she exudes a heroic spirit.

This woman is tall and well-proportioned, with a melon seed face, sharp eyebrows, a straight nose, red lips and bright teeth, and is staring at Shen Yue with her hands behind her back in surprise. ”

Shen Yue forcibly suppressed the tension in his heart, and quickly analyzed the situation: this woman was able to approach her side silently, indicating that her cultivation was far above herself. Looking at her clothes, she is an official of the Neijing Division, but I don't know if she came prepared or just by coincidence.

He decided to test the other party first, so he bowed and said: "The rough people in the mountains and fields occasionally made poetry after the snow, and casually said a few words (sorry Zu Yong), and I saw the laughing Fang family." I wonder what this adult has to say when he comes to this remote place? ”

"Childe is polite, the official has just arrived here to take office, he has nothing to do, he came all the way to enjoy the scenery in the snow, and he came to see a family here. happened to hear Childe's masterpiece, and I couldn't help but praise it, disturbing you Yaxing. ”

Shen Yue was a little relieved when he heard this, and he was glad that the person who came was not here to arrest him, otherwise there was no need to explain to him until now. But he still planned to give up this hut in his heart: first there was Gu Nian and then this official errand, this place was still too close to the town, and it was really too unsafe.

He pondered and waved his hand and smiled: "Where is it, where is there any Yaxing for poor and sour people." Since the adults are new to this place, if you don't dislike it, you can be a guide for the adults and find a few good scenery to visit. ”

Shen Yue made up his mind that he had to lure her away from this place as soon as possible, after all, the things he had obtained from the Neijing Commander, including the Longhua Treasure Knife, were still in the house! Let her find out and explain directly.

The woman thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's fine, it's troublesome." ”

Shen Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly led the way in front of him, away from the hut.
