Ten days later, it seemed to be winter.

The group had already entered Yuezhou.

The Taoist walked in front alone with a cane, and the jujube red horse still followed silently, but the three-flowered cat did not run around, smell and look around as usual, but kept talking behind him.

"How did Old Yan Immortal become a swallow god?"

"The imperial court is entitled, and merit becomes a god."

"How did you become an immortal?"

"The ancestor himself is a god, and he has incense on his side, but it is limited to Anqing, and there is no recognition from the imperial court to seal the heavenly palace. In the past two years, the entire Xuzhou has been a believer, and with the imperial court's edict, it is natural that he only needs to abandon the physical body to automatically mold into a god dharma body, ascend to heaven, and become an immortal class. ”

"Abandon the flesh!"

"What's wrong?"

"How do you abandon your body?"

"It's just to die." Yan Zi explained, "The old ancestor was almost at the end of his life, and I was guarding the door at that time, and I didn't know where there was a rooster crowing, and the old ancestor ascended to heaven." ”

"That's ......"

The three-flowered cat learned the tone of the Taoist.

It seems that there is a lot less enthusiasm.

"It's all like this, many immortals are like this, but if the descendants pass it on, it will change its appearance, and it sounds like it's amazing." "But in fact, many myths and legends are very ordinary at the beginning. ”

"I don't understand."

"That's how it is, anyway." Yanzi didn't want the cat to look down on his most powerful ancestor, so he said, "But the ancestor is very powerful, and he also has the blessing of Mr., and there are already many people who sincerely believe in him before he goes to heaven as a god, and the incense is far more powerful than before." In addition, the ancestors had a thousand years of Taoism before they became gods, and they must be a great god in the future. ”

Sanhua Cat was stunned when he heard it.

While walking forward with small steps, she turned her head to the side and looked at the swallow flying low in the sky from her on a red horse.

When the swallow saw this, he continued to say to her:

"Do you know where to go up from after becoming the Heavenly Palace God?"

"I don't know~"

"There is a mountain in the east, east, west, and north, which is closest to the sky. The northernmost is Tianzhu Mountain, which we will go to later, as well as Venerable Mountain in the south, Tianwan Mountain in the west, Boundless Mountain in the east, and Dingshan Mountain, which many emperors in the middle often visit. They are the highest, and if the gods want to go to heaven to become gods, they have to go up from here for the first time, but then they can fly up casually. ”

"It's amazing......"

This really touches on the blind spot of Sanhua cat's knowledge.

Let's ask her, a believer is only spread over a few villages, and there is no little cat and wild god enshrined by the imperial court, and even the god of the earth is not as good, where does she know these things?

But she still loves to listen to it, and she loves to listen to it very much.

It just sounds amazing.

This kind of dialogue is already used to by Taoists.

Since the swallow came back, the two little monsters have been talking when they have time along the way.

Most of the time, it was Sanhua Niangniang who pestered him and said, asking east and west, Yanzi was timid at first, unwilling to talk more, and when the excitement came, this was a normal conversation.

At the beginning, Yanzi talked about what he saw and heard overseas, the fierce man-eating demons he encountered, the fish bigger than the house, and the turtle that could carry a small island, and the three-flowered cat talked about the mountain gods he and the Taoist had met along the way after the separation of Xiangle, the emperors and snake fairies he had seen, and the monsters he had eliminated since he went to the north, and the mountains borrowed from Pingzhou.

I finally finished talking about it yesterday, and I will talk about it again today.

After a long absence, there is indeed such a divine power, which can make the original friendship to a higher level at the right time.

This divine power is effective against people, and it is also effective against demons.

After the cat and swallow said goodbye this time, it seems that they have a lot less life than they did a few years ago.

Maybe it's because after the swallow left, he wandered overseas alone, and often remembered the insects that Sanhua Cat had worked so hard to catch him on the road, which was the case.

That's good, too.

A child's growth must always involve the participation of their peers.

Originally, Song You and Sanhua Niangniang walked together, after all, there is a large psychological age gap, and Sanhua Niangniang's mental growth is different from people, or most demons' character growth curves are different from people. For example, Sanhua Niangniang has a mature side as an adult cat, and her self-care ability is far stronger than that of a teenager, but as a cat, she has a childish side, which may only be equivalent to a child of a few years old, but there are many differences between children and how old they are, which is the difference between races.

And this side of hers is still changing very slowly.

Although the swallow is already a teenager, but the personality is simple and introverted, and he was mostly in the mountains before, not touching the world, plus the different thinking of monsters, animals and people, although he is more mature than Sanhua Niangniang, but it is also very limited.

Now that I have returned from overseas, I am just more knowledgeable and less timid.

A cat and a bird have something to say.

Maybe it's good for both of them.

It's just that the swallow seems to never be afraid of cats, and no matter how much she talks, she must keep a certain distance from her.

"Don't talk about it."

The swallow flapped its wings and looked into the distance: "I'm going to continue to explore the way ahead." ”

As he spoke, he pushed himself up to the sky.

Soon disappeared into the long sky.

The three-flowered cat stopped slightly, scratched his head with his hind feet, and then chased after him with small steps, caught up with the Taoist, and hurriedly asked: "Taoist priest, is the first time that the gods really want to ascend to the sky from those places?" ”

The Taoist turned to look at her with a smile on his face.

"It's true."

It is also patiently answered.

Soon the swallow flew back.

"Sir, there is a mountain in front of you, and then go to the left, there is Huangsha Mountain, about twenty miles away."

"Okay."

Yuezhou is no longer a grassland, the terrain is similar to the south, there are mountains, rivers and trees, and the most common trees are a little different from Yizhou and Xuzhou.

After turning over a mountain, you can see Huangsha Mountain.

The Yellow Sand Mountain is not tall but very large, in fact, it is not yellow, it is reddish-brown yellowish rock and soil, weathered into sand and very barren, there are only sparse trees on it, and most of them are dry in this winter. There are many small wooden houses built in a mess on the mountain, I don't know if they have been old for a long time or they are like this, the color is black, and from a distance, the size seems to be just enough to sleep.

A trail that leads to the base of the mountain.

It doesn't matter if there is a road or not on the mountain, anyway, there is almost no grass, you can walk everywhere, and the place where there are many people walking at most, it is trampled flat, and it is like a road.

I faintly saw people walking around on the mountain.

There were also people carrying wooden poles and red tassel guns from the foot of the mountain along the path to this side, not knowing where to go.

In terms of size and numbers, this spear gate is probably far superior to the Jianghu sects such as the Xishan faction, the Yunhe sect and the Golden Dao Sect, and it is estimated that only interest gangs such as water transportation and smuggling salt can surpass it. However, this kind of interest gang is different from this kind of Jianghu sect that specializes in martial arts, and there is no need to compare it.

The reason for this is because Dayan is in its heyday, and naturally manages the Jianghu sect, and the normal Jianghu sect, even if the Yunhemen has a backer in the court and is good at business, and the Xishan faction is hiding in the mountains, as long as the core disciples are specialized in martial arts, the number of people will arouse the vigilance of the imperial court. Only a case like Speargate, located in the troubled times of the north, and supported by the bigwigs of the border army, can develop and grow.

After the war more than ten years ago, Yuezhou was basically empty, there were no people, and naturally there were no officials, who could still control the spear door.

I heard that later, many of the warriors in the north who died in the war came to take refuge in the speargate. Those who are displaced and have nowhere to go, but those who want to practice martial arts, also prefer the spear gate, and after learning and succeeding, they can directly enter the Zhenbei Army through the spear gate, as long as the ability is high, the future is immeasurable.

Just as he was thinking about it, several men with guns approached in front of him.

They are all rough wooden poles and red tassel guns, or carried in their hands, or held in their hands, or carried on their shoulders, walking scattered, not knowing where to go or what to do, chatting as they walk.

Seeing the Taoist, they couldn't help but be a little curious, looked at the Taoist a few more times, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Now that the Northern War has just ended, it is difficult to see outsiders here, not to mention that this person brought a horse but did not need a rein, brought a cat, and followed honestly, and then looked at this person, although the robe was old but also clean, although he was young, he had a calm face.

"This gentleman ......"

A man stopped, carrying a red tassel gun, and asked, "But the fellow martial artists from the rivers and lakes who came to visit my friends at the spear gate from other places?" ”

There is a common respect for Taoists in the tone.

"Definitely."

Song You also stopped on the side of the road, turned sideways, and arched his hand towards him: "I was just a tour of Fangdao people, and when I passed through Yanzhou, I accidentally found a lot of mailboxes on the grassland, which should have been sent from Liaoxinguan to Yuanzhi City or other places to the defenders' family letters, many of which should be the children of the spear gate, and they were to be sent to the spear gate. ”

"What mailbox letter?"

"Take it out and have a look."

When everyone heard this, they all gathered around.

"That's it......"

The Taoist turned around and put his hand into the quilt bag on the back of the jujube red horse, and after a little fumbling, he found two bamboo tubes.

Hand it to the man who spoke first.

After the man took it, he looked up and down.

"I can't read ......"

Then he turned back to the people behind him and said, "Which of you is literate?" ”

"I'm also illiterate......"

"I know a few, only a few."

"Take it back and see it......"

There are also a few unintelligible local dialects in between.

Song You took the bamboo tube from the man's hand again, and said to him: "This one reads, Liu Huzi of the spear gate of Huangsha Mountain, Wuxian County, Yuezhou, and there are more than a dozen such ones. ”

"Liu Huzi?"

"Is this what the hall master of the three halls is called?"

"Isn't this the name of Hall Master Liu?"

Everyone said a word, discussed a few words, and discussed again.

After a while, a result was discussed, and the man who spoke first took Song You to Huangsha Mountain, while the rest continued to move forward.

The swallow swiped lightly through the air, following the Taoist.

"There are birds ......"

"It's time to shoot down!"

"I eat beans, moles and rabbits every day, and I haven't eaten bird meat in a long time."

"I'm the same."

The swallow unconsciously flew a little higher.
