Chapter 30: Descending the Mountain
Qingyun Mountain Xiaozhu Peak
The early morning sun slowly climbed up Qingyun Mountain, shining on every inch of land. Suddenly, with a "squeak", Jing Zhuxuan's door was pushed open, Zhang Xiaofan, who was dressed in black, walked out of it, and Lu Xueqi, who was dressed in white behind him, also walked out, only to see that her face was fair, and the candlelight was like a glow, looking elegant and peerless. The beauty is incomparable. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is "beautiful as a fairy".
Zhang Xiaofan opened his arms, took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, and then turned to Lu Xueqi and said, "No need to send it, it's cold outside, hurry back to the room." Lu Xueqi responded softly, and then carefully sorted out Zhang Xiaofan's clothes.
Zhang Xiaofan stretched out his hand. Gently hugged the woman in front of him. lowered his head, kissed Lu Xueqi's cherry lips lightly, and said, "I'm leaving." Lu Xueqi replied: "Come back early." "Hmm"
At this time, Xiao Ash ran from nowhere, and climbed on his shoulder three times and two times. Then Zhang Xiaofan took out the soul devouring from his waist, and the blue light flashed, like a meteor, flying down the mountain. Lu Xueqi looked at the distant light, a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she stood silently looking at the sky.
Koike Town
This calm and peaceful town is still the same as in the past, people live in peace, but it is strange to say, in the beast and demon disaster, all the houses in the town were destroyed, only the temple of the commemorative stone, Zhang Xiaofan, and Baguio was still intact, so the people in the town felt that it was these three immortals who protected themselves and survived.
Therefore, the people of the whole town spontaneously go to the temple to offer incense to ask for the blessing of the gods, and it happens that in these years it is really smooth, and the people in the town live a stable life, and worship the three "immortals" more devoutly.
On this day, a light fell on the east side of the town, and the light dispersed to reveal Zhang Xiaofan's figure, originally he just wanted to go down the mountain to find Zhou Xian, but he didn't know how to come to Xiaochi Town.
He stood there motionless, as if thinking about something. The corners of his clothes were gently blown by the wind, and his heart had returned to more than ten years ago, when he was still an ignorant teenager, and he felt that the right path was the right way, and it was born specifically to destroy those demons in the demon path.
Time has passed, and now there is no difference between good and evil in his heart, and at this moment all that comes to mind is the water-green figure, the smile that dissolves all the distractions, and is still vaguely in front of him, but the beauty is here?
An exclamation interrupted Zhang Xiaofan's thoughts, "Ah! It's an immortal, the immortal is back, come on, everyone, come and kowtow to the immortal. It was a middle-aged farmer who shouted, pointing at Zhang Xiaofan with his mouth wide open and shouting. For a while, the whole town was boiling, and they all came here, and when they saw Zhang Xiaofan's face, they knelt down and kowtowed.
Zhang Xiaofan was confused, picked up this and that knelt down again, even if Zhang Xiaofan had peerless cultivation, they had no choice. In the middle of the night, a white-haired old man walked out of the crowd, he came to Zhang Xiaofan and looked at it carefully for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up with excitement, and he shouted: "It's him, it's him, it's an immortal." ”
After saying that, he wanted to kneel, Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly supported the old man and said: "Old man, I came here to take a look casually, I don't want to make such a big move, besides, I'm not an immortal, just a cultivator, don't call me that anymore." ”
The old man said: "Oh, immortal, back then, you caught the fox demon for us so that we were not harmed, and you blessed us with safety all these years, we really don't know how to thank you!" ”
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Old man, I don't have to pay you such a big gift for trivial things, you still ask everyone to go back." The old man commanded loudly as if he had received a holy decree, and then the people dispersed, and it seemed that the old man's status was not low.
After everyone left, Zhang Xiaofan walked towards the temple, but when he stepped into the door, he couldn't take a step anymore, the old man followed his gaze, and the place where his gaze stayed was not the statue of the fairy...
"Baguio ......" silently called out her name in her heart. Slowly walked to the stone statue, stretched out his hand to brush the ash off the statue's shoulder, slowly brushed the face of "Yiren", and gradually a smile appeared on Zhang Xiaofan's face.
After that vicissitudes, does he still remember? The woman, the green, the soul. Even if the storm is raging, there is still an umbrella to protect yourself from the wind and rain.
Zhang Xiaofan slowly retracted his thoughts and walked out of the door, the old man seemed to be a little hesitant and said, "Immortal... Little brother, if there is no urgency, stay so that we can repay you. His eyes were full of inquiry, and he looked at the figure. Zhang Xiaofan turned around, and the old man saw that face, some vicissitudes, some confusion, pain and sorrow, but the most was open-minded and relieved.
Maybe if you lose what you have been looking for in your life, you will see it a little more, there is no pursuit, there is no desire, there is just peace. Xu's voice became a little ethereal: "No need, I still have important things to do, and you have your kindness." With that, he turned and walked away.
On the street of Koike Town, there is a dilapidated wooden table with a bamboo pole inserted next to it, on which are written the words "Immortals guide the way". An old man with white hair and a mediocre face was shouting loudly: "Predicting the future of fifty years ago, being able to break the fortune of three hundred years, iron-mouthed gods, pen judgment yin and yang, want to know the future days, and come to see the last phase!" ”
"This uncle, I see that your heavenly court is full of square circles, you must be a rich and noble person, but your face is black, and it seems that something bad is coming...... Hey, don't go, I'm not done yet...... Hey, this aunt, I see that you have a sad face, and it seems that you have something on your mind, this immortal can give you some pointers......"
Beside him sat two sleepy young women, one of whom was quite pretty, the other of whom was full of amorous expressions, and who were lying on the edge of the table with a helpless expression.
And behind these three people, there stood a middle-aged man, holding all the packages, but he was born strangely, his body was more than a head taller than the previous two, and his face was like a wild dog, and he was disgusted. These four people are Zhou Zhou Xian, Xiaohuan, Jin Zhu'er, and Wild Dog Daoren.
Since that day they and Xiaobai were separated in Heyang City, Zhou Zhou Xian and they came to Xiaochi Town, Zhou Zhou Xian is really gloating at this time, the people who have come to see the appearance in the past few days are talking endlessly, and they are counting the recent fortune. One by one, under his 'guidance', they left as if they had been amnesty.
Zhou Zhou Xian was holding ten taels of silver in his hand, and his face was still happy, the silver he earned in the past few days was enough for them to spend a few months. Zhou Zhou Xian was about to put the silver into his arms, but unexpectedly, an object flew over, snatched the ten taels of silver in Zhou Xian's hand, and jumped on the wooden table.
Zhou Xian saw that it was a gray-haired monkey, and this monkey actually had three eyes. Xiaohuan came to his senses as soon as he saw this monkey and called: "Little Ash". When the monkey heard the call, he jumped into Xiaohuan's arms and gave Xiaohuan the money he had just snatched from his paws, Xiaohuan took the money and smiled, and at first Zhou Xian shouted and scolded on the side: "You dead monkey, you dare to rob the old man's money, it's really a king's law." Be careful that the old man puts you in a cage for twenty or thirty years, and see if you are still honest. ”
Xiaohuan looked around, and Jin Qi'er pointed to the street. There are constant crowds on the road. I saw a man dressed in black and with a slight figure. A calm face. Just a burst of warmth. Suddenly it makes people feel like they are leaving everything behind. Comers. Naturally, it is Zhang Xiaofan.
Xiaohuan walked over with Xiao Ash in his arms, lowered his head and said, "Brother Zhang." After Zhang Xiaofan heard the voice, he turned around and said, "Sister Xiaohuan, I haven't seen you for a long time." When Xiaohuan raised his head, he happened to meet Zhang Xiaofan's deep eyes, and couldn't help jumping with confidence, and a faint blush appeared on her pretty little face.
Zhang Xiaofan walked up to Zhou Zhou Xian and said, "Senior." "Zhang Xiaofan, do you have anything to do with us?" The old man's fortune telling has always been extremely accurate, as long as there is enough sincerity, it will be solved for you. Zhou Zhou Xian twisted his beard and looked at Zhang Xiaofan meaningfully.
Zhang Xiaofan also smiled: "The seniors are right, I did have something to ask the seniors for this time." This is not the place to talk, let's change places. So they found an inn in the town and talked.
When they sat down, Zhou Zhou Xian immediately ordered a table full of wine and food, Xiaohuan looked at Zhou Zhou Xian as if he didn't want money, he was embarrassed, and said, "Grandpa, you order so much, can you finish eating?" Zhou Xian said calmly: "People have the heart to invite us to dinner, if we pretend to be a gesture, won't we live up to the kindness of others, right, Zhang Xiaofan?" ”
Zhang Xiaofan nodded with a smile and said, "If the seniors have any needs, just mention them." After more than half an hour, Zhang Xiaofan saw that Zhou Xian was full, and said, "Senior, I have something I want to ask you." Zhou Xian glanced at Zhang Xiaofan with a deep look and said, "You came to find the old man for the Tianji Seal!" ”
Zhang Xiaofan exclaimed: "How do you know senior? Zhou Zhou Xian stroked his beard and said, "The old man is an immortal, of course he knows." "Is there a way for the seniors to fix it?" Zhang Xiaofan asked again.
"Absolutely." Zhou Zhou Xian took a sip of wine and said. Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw hope. "Just ......" "Just what?" Zhang Xiaofan said. "You have to know who destroyed the Heavenly Machine Seal?"
"It's me" The charm of the golden bottle came to their ears slowly, Zhang Xiaofan and Zhou Zhou Xian looked at her and said, "It's you?" Jin Bei'er continued: "Yes, at the beginning, Daoist Cangsong and I were ordered by the Ghost King to destroy the Heavenly Machine Seal. Zhou Zhou Xian said: "I see. ”
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a while before saying: "It's not early now, let's rest here for one night, and we will set off back to Qingyunmen tomorrow." ”
