Although the river is a source of water, the land on both sides is black and devoid of vegetation.

It is worthy of the peak of the poison cult, and it is indeed a sinister phenomenon.

The scenery is bizarre, but it doesn't seem dangerous.

Ji Xuan went up the river and climbed along the river until noon, when the sun hung directly above for a while before approaching the Dao Chief's residence at the peak.

Good guys, it was the right decision to go out early.

The residence of the chief of Anning Dao was some distance west of the stream, and when Ji Xuan finally found a place, the sundial outside the residence was coming to an end.

The cave is built along the mountain, the main gate is open on the side of the mountain, and the wall stretches along both sides, enclosing the gray and black mountain rocks in it.

The walls extend beyond the eye of the eye, but there is no second entrance and exit.

In front of the only door, there were already two women and a man standing at the moment, and they were looking at Ji Xuan when they heard the sound.

It was the royal trio before it.

The one in the middle took off his bright yellow dragon robes and changed into a light yellow robe, but he still stubbornly retained the dragon embroidery on the ribbon.

The clothes of the guard and the other were changed from black and less bright yellow to gray-black and light yellow, respectively, and the brightness was much lower.

"Fellow Daoist." The faded man in yellow greeted Ji Xuan in a friendly manner, "Meet again, in Xia Jingbai." ”

"An Daoyou." Ji Xuan arched his hand, "Who are these two?" ”

Although they are still mortals, the two have begun to use the term "Taoist friend" to call each other.

An Jingbai turned over slightly and introduced: "This is my brother, An Jinglan, and this is my friend, An Jiayi." ”

An Jia was also dressed in black, standing in a position behind An Jingbai's right, waiting for no movement.

More like a soulless shell than a flesh-and-blood person.

After that, without waiting for Ji Xuan to react, the door in the mountain opened without wind, and the air flow rushed from the inside out, blowing the people at the door upside down.

Several people took a few steps back, An Jinglan was even more exaggerated, she was about to fall if she was unstable on her feet, An Jingbai reached out to support her younger brother, lest the latter go with the wind.

Ji Xuan couldn't help but make up for it, the wind came strangely, but the strength was ingenious, just so that everyone's strength could be distinguished, could it be the test of this Anning Daoist to his disciples?

The dust cleared, revealing the dark path behind the door, as if some beast were sleeping.

Ji Xuan and An Jingbai glanced at each other and looked at each other.

They all read the three big words "uninformed" from the other party's eyes.

This door is wide open, please enter the urn. Those who know understand that they are teaching disciples, but those who don't know think that they are wild ghosts in the wilderness who harm people.

Maybe this is the personality of a teacher, after all, it is Wansheng Peak, which is mainly based on the study of poisons, which is very reasonable.

They walked in the doorway.

The moment I passed through the gate, I was already moving in front of me.

There is no deep tunnel inside the door, which is clearly a garden water pavilion and pavilions.

Although there is a long and endless stone wall on one side, there is an endless lake on the other.

Ji Xuan was stunned.

She paused in her place in a very unsightly manner, restraining the desire to go back and come in again.

It's a one-step difference.

The water surface is light in color, and you walk along the path at the bottom of the stone wall, and in front of you is a trestle bridge, and at the end of the bridge is a glazed tile pavilion, and the red tiles on the top even have a fine glitter.

There were no railings on all sides of the pavilion, and a monk in black robes stood facing the lake. The vestment has a strong sense of flow, as if there are insects swimming, and the body and feet of the insects are looming.

The group stopped in front of the water pavilion, knowing that this was the chief of the peace road.

At this moment, the tacit understanding between Ji Xuan and Jing Bai reached its peak under the master's powerful aura, raised his hand and saluted, and said in unison:

"Ji Xuan, a disciple of Wansheng Peak, has seen the Taoist."

"An Jingbai under the gate of Wansheng Peak, I have seen the Taoist chief."

Daoist An Ning turned around at this time.

Her beard and hair are all white, and her appearance is that of an elderly woman, if you ignore the evil magic robes, she is indeed very similar to the convincing old fairy girl in the mortal world, who has been a Taoist woman for many years.

Ji Xuan lowered his eyes to avoid an inappropriate look, but his gaze still fell unconsciously on the hem of the other party's clothes.

In addition to the faintly wriggling poison on the hem of the clothes, there was also a faint reddish blood light.

Daoist An Ning knew that these people were coming in, her gaze swept over Ji Xuan, stopped slightly, and then ignored the younger brother and guards standing behind, and stayed on An Jingbai for a long time.

System: "She doesn't seem to be very interested in you." ”

Ji Xuan: "That's not what you just announced. ”

System: "Indeed. She 'knows your face', and this princess 'remembers you firmly', but judging from the experience points given, it is still your master who gives more. ”

In this situation, Ji Xuan had a guess: "The law name of the head of Anning is "Anning", and the surname of these royal families is "An", they won't be a family, right?" And the legal name of the person also follows the surname? ”

System: "It's not impossible. ”

The chat between the system and Ji Xuan will not be seen through, and he is not afraid of the strength of the Taoist in front of him.

"Dao Chief." An Jingbai was stared at by An Ning Dao for a long time, fine cold sweat oozed from the back of his neck, and he knelt down with a plop, "The twelfth generation descendant of the An family, the prince of Changping, see the royal priest." ”

Her brother and the guards followed her, kneeling behind her.

Ji Xuan hesitated for a second between kneeling together and temporarily avoiding it, and decided to avoid it, she put her hand down and walked away from the trestle.

"Ginger Year."

An old woman's voice in the pavilion called, and it was Daoist An Ning who spoke.

"When you come to my door, you will be sisters in the same sect, and you should know each other well."

Does this mean that you don't need to avoid?

Ji Xuan stopped.

When An Jingbai heard this, he immediately followed An Ning's words and said, "Jiang Daoyou, I didn't introduce you much, it's my fault. ”

"I can't hide it, I am related to Dao Changbo, and I am also a collateral descendant of the An clan of the Zhou Dynasty, and according to the law, I should inherit the throne of 'Changping' on the bank of the Luo River."

"Jing Song is my brother, and Jia Yi was my guard."

An Jingbai was still kneeling on the ground, but he just turned sideways to talk to Ji Xuan, turning his head and face, as if he was saluting Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan didn't want to circle around her body, and he didn't want to accept her gifts, so he couldn't avoid the fate of kneeling together after all. I could only bow down and say a few words to An Jingbai, introducing myself as from Qiucheng.

For a time, the atmosphere in the pavilion was harmonious.

Although An Ning's momentum was secretive, he did not say anything to stop it, An Jingbai observed his words and took the lead in standing up.

Daoist An Ning is really an apprentice.

The Taoist chief ranked the four of them according to their age, An Jingbai is the senior sister, the second senior sister is An Jiayi, Ji Xuan is the third senior sister, and An Jinglan is the junior brother.

"Ling Zun entrusted you to me before he died." Daoist An Ning said to An Jingbai, "But you must know that although I can save your life, I will not get involved in the affairs of the royal family for you." What happens in the future depends only on your creation. ”
