The time is early winter, it is a cold and clear night, the starry sky is so bright, and the tiger baby is walking while looking up at the canopy that envelops the four fields. He's been coming down from a great place these days, but looking at the distance of those stars, it doesn't seem to be any farther away because of this.

Huwa heard the mountain god say that if you cultivate to transcend the Eight Realms and Nine Revolutions, and then take the last step of ascending to the sky, you can go to the Imperial Divine Land to enjoy eternal life. Is the Emperor's Land in the sky, is it the place where those stars are?

Where are the stars, and where is the tiger baby going at the moment? The mountain god did not tell him a clear destination, but only told him to travel all over the five countries of Bayuan, and there were a few special places to visit, but to pay attention to some situations.

The mountain lord reminded him to avoid the direction of Gaocheng first after leaving the wilderness, and not even to appear in the territory of Gaocheng to be seen, and to reach the territory of another city as quickly as possible. If that were the case, if anyone tracked his whereabouts, they would lose the clues. That's what Tiger Doll did, he took the pan gourd from the night to the dawn, and watched the sun rise.

The mountain god once introduced the general topography of Ba Yuan to Huwa, who walked from west to east along the edge of the area, just in front of the morning glow. Huwa once stopped to look back to the northwest, where there were towering mountains across the sky, and Shanshui City was in the mountains. The mountain seems to be so close that it gives the illusion that you can reach it quickly if you walk back. But the tiger baby knew that it was a long way to go, and he came from there.

When he turned around and looked at the oncoming strange world, the sunlight that dispelled the darkness did not dispel the lonely and desolate uneasiness in the tiger baby's heart, and then he remembered what Granny Shui said before he left: "Good boy, just this time it's the same as usual, run out of the gang with the pan to play, but walk farther and longer."

There are many bad people in the world, you don't have to be polite when you meet you, just be careful of yourself. But there are more good people, so you don't have to be sad and disappointed all the time. If you don't like to meet bad people. Then you have to be a good person. Granny Shui's words were still in her ears, and the tiger baby's feeling was finally a little easier.

During the day, the tiger baby and Pan Gu sped up their speed again, and walked like flying, avoiding crowded places, and even trying not to alarm the birds and beasts in the mountains and forests. They hurried in such a way that they alternated between fast and slow day and night, almost non-stop, and soon left the territory of Gao Cheng and entered the territory of another city, Feihong City.

In the territory of Feihong City, the tiger baby no longer only walks through the wilderness. According to the outline of the distant mountain, judge the approximate direction according to the situation that the mountain god had introduced in the original god, and walk in the direction of Feihong City. He walked out of a mountain forest, and a road appeared in front of him, about five feet wide and smooth, apparently connecting the populated villages.

Huwa didn't know that there was a road here, and it was impossible for Li Qingshui to go to every place in Bayuan, even if he had been here, it would have been more than a hundred years ago. The topography and the distribution of people will definitely change somewhat. The tiger baby continued to walk east along this road, and suddenly landed on her two front legs, and it was honest like a dog, because it heard the sound of the hillside in the distance.

It didn't sound like an ordinary bird or beast. It seems that someone is digging the soil with some kind of utensils, and taking something out of the soil and shaking it and stacking it. Both Tiger Baby and Pan Gu's senses were extremely keen, and they heard it from a long distance, and continued to walk forward and make a small turn. Sure enough, there was a man on the hillside on the left side of the road.

It was an old man with gray hair, dressed in linen, and not far away lay a leather robe that had been taken off. He was digging in the ground with a short hoe. What the old man gathered was a slender rhizome, about an inch thick and a foot long, with a light brown surface with thin whiskers, but a pure white fracture. He dug up the rhizomes, then shook off the dirt and scraped them clean and piled them aside.

The old man was also taken aback when he saw the tiger baby and Pan Gu coming from a distance, and subconsciously looked behind the tiger baby, but found no one else. When the tiger baby walked by, the old man took the initiative to greet him: "Child, which village are you from, why did you come here alone?"

Huwa stood still and replied, "I'm from another city, and I happened to be passing through here. ...... Uncle, what kind of place is this, and what are you digging?"

The old man was even more surprised, from the direction where the tiger baby came, there was still a long way to go from the nearest village, why did a child with a dog come over like this? He put down the things in his hand, walked down the hill and said: "Child, how can you run so far with a puppy alone? Go home quickly, otherwise you won't be able to go back before dark, and there is danger outside, and your adults will be in a hurry!"

Huwa smiled: "Uncle, you don't have to worry about me. I'm really just passing by, what's the place ahead?"

The tiger baby has only lived in Lu Village and Huahai Village since childhood, no matter who meets to greet is very natural, there is no particularly rusty and restrained feeling, once this habit is formed, it is the same when meeting others outside the mountain. The old man stared at the tiger baby for a while, and the tiger baby's expression and tone were indeed a child, but he was no longer short, his body bones were also very strong, and his skin was very delicate.

The old man suddenly showed a relieved expression, and asked tentatively, "Are you a monk, have you come out to travel and practice?" This old man is obviously also very human, he has a lot of vision and knowledge. Like the tiger baby, who travels long distances alone and walks unhurriedly without anything, must not be an ordinary person, although the tiger baby looks not big, but the actual age is not easy to judge.

Huwa nodded and smiled: "Yes, I do know a little bit about cultivation." ”

The old man also smiled: "You are indeed a monk with magical powers, no wonder, you still look so young! At such a season, you are wearing such thin clothes, but you don't feel cold at all." ...... Where are you going, little gentleman? Sit down and take a drink. ”

This old man made Huwa feel very kind, it felt like he had met people from Huahai Village when he was running around the sea of flowers, and he had only walked through the field for the past few days, and finally met a person, and he also wanted to talk and listen to the surrounding situation. Huwa sat down on the grassy slope by the roadside, thanked him, and then took a clay pot handed by the old man and drank a sip of water, although he was not hungry, he was a little thirsty.

According to the old man, more than 20 miles further from this road, there is a place called Baixi Village.

The mountain god once mentioned the place name of Baixi Village to Huwa, which is located in a very remote area within the jurisdiction of Feihong City, and further north is the steep wild mountains. The reason why the mountain god mentioned such a remote city was because the city lord of Feihong City was from Baixi Village, and he was once a monk of the Five Realms.

This situation made Huwa feel a little familiar, and now the city lord of Shanshui City was from a more remote Lu Village, not growing up in the Central Valley, presumably the city lord of Feihong City should also be a very outstanding person. Huwa naturally asked, "Uncle, is the city lord of Feihong City from the Baixi Village in front?"

The old man was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "That was a few decades ago, I also served as the city lord's personal guard when I was young, but the city lord has passed away for a long time, and even I have returned to Baixi Village to retire." ...... It seems that you have heard about the situation of the monks everywhere, and you know even about what happened a long time ago, but now things have changed. What is your name and where are you from?"

The tiger baby actually knew that the city lord of Feihong City a long time ago was from Baixi Village, and the old man became more and more sure of his judgment, this young man must be a disciple of a certain master and belonged to a certain sect with a long heritage.

Huwa replied: "My name is Huwa, I come from a far away place, you may not know if I say it, so I won't tell you." ...... If I see it correctly, you have cultivated the strength of the mountain, and you already have the realm of martial arts. ”

The monk from Baixi Village mentioned by the mountain god became the city lord of Feihong City more than a hundred years ago, and the old man's name was Tian Xiao, who was also from Baixi Village, and he was not born at that time. The city lord has been in charge of Feihong City for more than 60 years, Tian Xiao was recruited to fight on the border when he was young, and he cultivated the strength of the mountain in the military formation, and after returning to the city of Feihong City, he became the personal guard of the city lord, and practiced the spirit of the mountain to the realm of martial arts.

Although the old city lord had the cultivation of the Five Realms, he had never broken through the Six Realms in his life. After the death of the old city lord, Tian Xiao became the personal guard of the new city lord, and went through three city lords before and after, and later returned to his hometown to retire when he was old, and still lived in Baixi Village.

Tiger baby's perception is subtle, just now he has sensed the characteristics of the old man's energy when digging rhizomes, obviously has a foundation, this person has cultivated the mountain strength to the realm of martial arts when he was young, and there is no hidden danger of internal injuries, and now although he is old, he has not yet reached the exhaustion of energy.

Such an old man is certainly not an ordinary village resident, he has traveled far away, has joined the army to fight on the border, and of course he is far more knowledgeable than ordinary people. Tian Xiao was very surprised when he first saw the tiger baby, and later his judgment of the identity of the tiger baby was not accurate, but it should be very reliable.

It is more than 20 miles away from Baixi Village, and it is also a wilderness, Tian Xiao dares to run to collect things alone, without the slightest fear, and he does have the ability. The thing he collected is called sweet potato, which can be eaten and used in medicine, and can be stored for a long time after drying, which is a very important miscellaneous grain in Baixi Village.

Tian Xiao replied: "The little gentleman really has eyesight, and he actually saw the details of the decay. When I was young, I did practice Kaishan Jin, and I had some kung fu, but now that I'm old, my strength is not as good as before. I came here to collect yams and eat them, and I could keep some of them for the villagers to plant. This thing can not only be used as food, but also to nourish the middle qi and strengthen the muscles and bones, and I take it all year round. (To be continued......)

PS: I'm sorry, tomorrow my second eldest will come to the seaside to escape the summer, I have to go to the airport to meet and arrange. So I'm sorry, but there may only be one shift tomorrow, and it may be late.
