Chapter 53: Xin Ruyin
The Lancang River originated in the Zijin Kingdom and flows from south to north. At first, when the Lancang River was in the Zijin Kingdom, it was just an inconspicuous small river, and when it arrived at Lanzhou, the Yue Kingdom, various water systems flowed into it, and the Lancang River became more and more huge, and it passed through the Yue Country until it arrived in the Yuanwu Kingdom, and then it branched out into various small branches.
From the map of the merger of the three kingdoms, the Lancang River is like a black line from the Zijin Kingdom to the Yuanwu Kingdom, dividing the Yue Kingdom into two parts, east and west, and interestingly, the east of the Lancang River and the west of the Lancang River of the Yue Kingdom are basically the same area.
Yuanwu country, a tributary of the Lancang River, somewhere shallow.
The shallows were deserted, and there was a dense bamboo forest farther away.
Three people walked out of the bamboo forest, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, and two twenty-eight-year-old girls.
After the three of them left the bamboo forest, the girl led by the girl stopped at the mouth of the bamboo forest.
She was of medium stature, with a small nose and eyes as clear as water. Just looking at this woman's facial features, she is not very outstanding, but her elegant and calm expression, swaying demeanor between gestures, and those black eyes that can speak. It's enough for anyone who sees her, not only will they not feel that she is mediocre, but the more they look at her, the more amazing they become.
She crossed her left and right hands, put her outstretched index finger and middle finger together, and then drew an arc with each hand in the air, and used both hands together to refer to the pen, using the spirit as ink, and wrote a mysterious character in the direction of the bamboo forest.
With a flick of her hand, the characters melted into the bamboo forest.
Ripples rippled around the perimeter of the bamboo forest, then spread, and a semicircular shield enveloped the entire bamboo forest. All kinds of mysterious characters on the shield flashed, and they completely disappeared with the shield, protecting the bamboo forest.
Her face was focused, but her movements were extremely relaxed.
"Senior sister, the speed at which you activate this Mystery Array is getting faster and faster." The boy couldn't help but admire.
Half a year ago, he always thought that his depth in the formation was already unbeatable at this age. It wasn't until I met this senior sister that I knew that there was a sky outside the sky and someone outside the world.
Thinking of this, the young man was a little frustrated: "I don't know when I will be able to arrange so many formations so easily like my senior sister."
"Senior Brother Qin, the master once mentioned that your talent lies in breaking the formation, not in the formation, and it is not appropriate to be presumptuous." Speaking of the master, the girl's brows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were sad, and her red eyes were pitiful.
Perhaps because of her emotional instability, the girl felt that her illness had begun to attack again, and there were bursts of tingling pain in the meridians, which made her brows tightly locked, and she was a little unable to stand.
"Miss!" The other girl immediately went over to help, first looking at her young lady worriedly, and then turned her head and stared at Senior Brother Qin, as if blaming him for making Miss think of her master.
Qin Xiaolin didn't know how to open his mouth to comfort, he was a little overwhelmed and froze in place.
"Xiaomei." Xin Ruyin patted the maid's hand with her hand, endured the pain, and said gently: "I'm an old problem, and it has nothing to do with Senior Brother Qin."
After listening to Miss's words, Xiaomei withdrew her gaze and said distressedly: "Miss, your illness is really not suitable for too much emotional fluctuations, or let's go back today."
"I'm fine, don't worry." Xin Ruyin smiled and didn't let Xiaomei hold on to it.
"Let's go, Senior Brother Qin."
"Holo." Qin Xiaolin lowered his head with apologies, not knowing what to think.
In the early morning, the soft light of the morning sun is scattered in the shallows, and the river on the shore is shining.
Xiaomei walked while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the riverside.
"Ahh
Xin Ruyin followed the direction of Xiaomei's finger, but the river surface was a little reflective, and the distance was a little far, and it was not really visible.
She stopped, wiped the storage bag in her hand, and a small formation disk was pinched in the palm of her hand, and her jade hand was slightly raised.
Qin Xiaolin was thinking about his thoughts, and when he saw that the master and servant had stopped, his face was puzzled:
"Senior sister, what's wrong?"
"Qin Gongzi, there seems to be a person lying on his stomach on the beach over there." Xiaomei explained.
A year ago, since he experienced that incident, Qin Xiaolin was no longer so reckless and vigilant.
"Let's go around to the side." Xin Ruyin's face was calm.
Xin Ruyin was adopted by her master since she was a child, and she was once carefree under this big tree. But two years ago, the master returned from a wandering, and the deadline had come, and after he died, I don't know how many ill-intentioned people had been wiped out in this mysterious array.
In just two years, she understood the danger of this cultivation world, and there were countless people with sinister intentions. So she was born smart, so she chose to do more than less, and continued to travel farther away.
Qin Xiaolin was noncommittal, and he also held the formation plate in his hand, taking the lead and protecting the master and servant.
The group walked around the road, their eyes fixed on the black shadow on the shallows, and as they walked, they gradually became a straight line with the black shadow of the suspected human corpse.
The morning sun was slightly higher than the horizon, and under the oblique sunlight, the three people who were in a straight line with the black shadow were finally not affected by the reflection of the river, and could see a little more clearly.
The black shadow lay on the shallows, about nine feet long, with no face visible, with white hair, and it seemed to be the corpse of a tall old man.
"It looks like a storage bag!" Xiaomei said the thoughts of the other two in one mouth.
Qin Xiaolin thought about the scarce cultivation resources, and he was greedy in his heart, but he still had reason: "Senior sister, you guys will stay here, and I will come when I go."
After speaking, regardless of Xin Ruyin's objections, he took out another array plate, one in each hand, ready to go, and approached the corpse.
Seeing that she couldn't be dissuaded, Xin Ruyin frowned slightly, and followed behind Qin Xiaolin to avoid any changes.
Walking in, Qin Xiaolin saw the whole picture of the corpse.
The clothes were in tatters, and the cloth on them was blistered, and it was barely obvious that they were commonly used by farmers.
Tightly tied to the waist is a delicate storage bag, which is lifelike on the mountains, rivers and birds.
"Huh?" Qin Xiaolin exclaimed.
This storage bag seems to be...
Without thinking about it, Qin Xiaolin activated the trapped spirit array in his hand, threw it next to the corpse, and put a shield on himself, and after confirming that the corpse had no breath, he used his mana to flip the corpse over, face up.
Qin Xiaolin looked at it, and his expression changed greatly.
Xin Ruyin also came to Qin Xiaolin's side at this time, standing side by side with him.
She first glanced at the corpse, but found no abnormality, tilted her head sideways, turned her beautiful eyes to Qin Xiaolin, saw that his complexion was changing, thought about it for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Senior brother..."
