() "The master of my house is General Yong. He prepared a carriage for Xiao Gongzi yesterday, but when he was sent to Xinwang Camp, he heard that Xiao Gongzi had already hit the road, so he hurriedly ordered the villain to drive after him. But there is more than one way to Overwatch, and you and I may have gone across, but we have never met each other. There were so many people sleeping in the Overwatch City that I had to hide my carriage outside the city and go into the city to find it myself. But I haven't seen Xiao Gongzi, so it's naturally inconvenient to find it, and I searched all over the city without success, and I inquired about the soldiers guarding the city, but I heard that someone left the city in the middle of the night. I chased all the way, fortunately I finally found you, Xiao Gongzi hurry up and get in the car, I can also go back to my life. "That's human.

"Heh, Xiao Gongzi, what a big face, he can win General Yong's special horse to send him. I knew this was the case, why bothered to buy this lame horse last night?" Fan Lingyun said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the big black horse turned his head to bite Fan Lingyun, Fan Lingyun hurriedly dodged away, but he was coldly slapped in the face by the big black horse, spraying sobs and salivation.

"Bah, it stinks to death, you stinky black horse, if I hadn't rescued you, you would have only one way to die, if you don't thank me, you just came to provoke me, see if I don't beat you!" Fan Lingyun was annoyed, wiped his face and raised his hand to fight, the big black horse raised his head and stepped up, "Bang-" A loud neigh, Xiao Tianhe loosened the reins, and it spread its hooves and ran forward one by one, as if its steps were very cheerful. Looking at Fan Lingyun scolding and chasing the horse away, Xiao Tianhe smiled and bent down behind him.

The subordinate of General Yong also smiled, stared at the legs of the big black horse for a while, and said to Xiao Tianhe: "Young Master Xiao, this horse may not be able to use its foot strength, let me take it back." ”

"No, I didn't buy this horse for the sake of traveling, but because I think it has spirituality. Sure enough, you see, it's really funny that it can joke with people, haha!" Xiao Tianhe loves that big black horse very much.

"However, Xiao Gongzi has to participate in the evaluation competition, and carrying a lame horse is a burden after all. Or I'll take it back to take care of it, and I'll return it when my son returns. ”

"Hey, don't bother, I have my own way. In short, thank you, thank you General Yong for me when you go back to your life. Xiao Tianhe arched his hand.

The subordinate said goodbye to Xiao Tianhe, and also nodded to Fan Lingyun, who was leading the horse back, and turned to leave.

Fan Lingyun didn't seem to be angry, and he slapped the big dark horse when he said a word, of course, not too hard, just gently. The big dark horse looked indifferent, just looking at Xiao Tianhe.

Xiao Tianhe took the reins, stroked the drooping head of the big black horse, and comforted: "Don't worry, with the carriage, I won't leave you." ”

The big black horse happily rubbed his head against Xiao Tianhe's cheek, and stretched out his tongue to lick it, making Xiao Tianhe giggle.

Fan Lingyun shook his head again and again and sighed, "Oh my God, I'm really going to become a sperm!"

This sentence reminded Xiao Tianhe, such a psychic horse, isn't it a demon clan?

Hearing Xiao Tianhe's doubts, Fan Lingyun locked his eyebrows and pondered for a while, then replied: "'Demon Clan' is just a general term, and there are indeed two kinds of 'human form' and 'beast form', which in the final analysis is the difference between the depth of spiritual intelligence. If you want to talk about livestock, at most they belong to the same level as the beasts in the mountains, forests, lakes and seas, and they have neither formed a demon spirit orb, nor have they cultivated. Even if you understand human nature, maybe it's just because you're smart!"

Xiao Tianhe nodded, feeling that what Fan Lingyun said was very reasonable.

"What are you going to do, the lame horse can't keep up with the horse-drawn cart at all, you can't necessarily let the carriage drive at the speed of the lame horse, right?" Fan Lingyun asked.

"I have a storage magic weapon, just put Xiao Hei in it!"

Fan Lingyun was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and said with a smile: "You actually named it? What kind of 'little black', it's so boring!"

Xiao Tianhe licked his lips and grinned: "Hehe, keep calling it 'lame horse', it will definitely not be happy." How good 'Little Black' is, it's both nice and intimate. ”

"Heh, it seems that your storage magic weapon is really a treasure, and it can actually put down a tall horse. But I have to warn you, no matter how big the storage magic weapon is, it can only be stored, not put into living beings, and if you put it in, it will be death, and your method will not work at all. Fan Lingyun said.

"Huh?" Xiao Tianhe thought about it carefully, what the storage ring had was just a simple subspace, not a sub-world like Meng Zhangjie. If you put in the dead things, you will not be able to live. In fact, his original intention was to put Xiao Hei into the Meng Zhang realm, but how to explain it now?

"Then I have to go to the next state city and store Xiao Hei there temporarily. Xiao Tianhe pretended to be helpless. When Xiao Hei is put into Meng Zhang's realm at that time, he will not know it, and Fan Lingyun will not suspect it.

Fan Lingyun pursed his lips: "You might as well let that person just now take Xiao Hei back to take care of it!"

"At that time, I didn't know that the storage magic weapon couldn't survive!" Xiao Tianhe spread his hands, "Okay, let's get in the car, it's not too late to walk to the next state city for a while." ”

The two of them boarded the car, tied the reins of Xiao Hei to the back bar of the car, pulled up the bridles, and walked slowly.

......

This journey took six days. Coupled with the first day of walking, it took a total of seven days for Xiao Tianhe to come to the realm of Zongpiao Realm.

Before he could see the Bright Forest, the horse could no longer run, not because he was tired, but because he had no way to run. There were tents of all sizes, and there were many wagons of all kinds parked in the empty space, and I really didn't know where so many people had gathered.

In addition to the people who participated in the evaluation competition, there were also some people who sold business, some sold pills, some sold magic weapons, some sold swords, and some even sold wine and food. Some people find an empty place to sit and set up a stall, some people carry boxes on their backs to sell, and some even directly remove the side rails of the carriage and sell them on the cart. It can be seen that businessmen have a high ability to find business opportunities.

All kinds of boiling noises made Xiao Tianhe have a headache, and he drove around this area, anyway, he could enter Yao from anywhere

Ming Forest.

Suddenly, Xiao Tianhe heard a shout in the noise, stood up and waved to the man.

A man with a small box trotted over and asked, "Does Childe want to buy a map?"

Xiao Tianhe nodded: "This map of yours is a detailed map of the Zongpiao Realm?"

"Of course. Nothing was drawn on the map except for the Zong Piao Realm. The various terrain locations of the Zongpiao Realm are all detailed, but they are rare things. The man boasted triumphantly.

"Hmm......" Xiao Tianhe was a little unconvinced, Zongpiao Realm is not a good place, human beings rarely set foot in it, how did the map draw? So he asked the merchant: "Can you show us first?" If it's good, I'll buy it later." ”

The man waved his hand again and again to refuse: "That's not possible, many people have the ability to remember, if you remember it at a glance, how can you buy my map?"

"Hey, you're a monster. Fan Lingyun said.

Seeing Xiao Tianhe's hesitation, the seller persuaded: "This is the topographic map I drew by myself after taking a few risks and going around the Zongpiao Realm. Of course, I didn't go deep into the dangers in the Yaoming Forest, but I drew that part of the forest based on the descriptions and records of my predecessors. If Childe doesn't believe it, he can't buy it, but this map is very hot, and I'm afraid that when Childe regrets coming back, the map has been sold out. ”

"Okay, I wonder how much you want to pay for this map?"

The man raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers: "Don't dare to ask for more, only three thousand beads, and the son will take the map." ”

"Ahem...... Fan Lingyun was so frightened that he choked on saliva, "Three thousand beads, you might as well grab the money directly!"

The seller smiled: "Although the map is simple, it is a scarce thing at this time, and I am the only one who sells it." Why doesn't the girl want me to enter the Zongpiao Realm alone to investigate the terrain, how much risk I have to take? Think about it again, if there is such a picture, and the lives of the two of you can be saved at a critical moment, how much will it be worth more than three thousand beads? This price is really not expensive!"

"You play a good game, admire, admire. Fan Lingyun arched his hand at him.

"Hey, the one who sells maps over there, come here!" At this time, someone in the distance greeted the merchant again.

"Does Childe need it? If not, I'm going over there. ”

"I'll tell you the truth, I don't have that much money. But I can exchange this carriage with you, how about it?" Xiao Tianhe patted the carriage and said.

"Carriage...... It's useless for me to ask for a car alone, unless you give me two horses. The seller was very shrewd, and he saw that Xiao Tianhe really wanted it, so he continued to increase it.

"Deal! Xiao Tianhe happily agreed.

Fan Lingyun jumped out of the car with Xiao Tianhe, saw his back, shook his head again and again, and said in his heart: "This first-class fool, don't you know that it is not worth your life to kill people?"

The merchant was already so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, took out a neatly folded map from the small box behind him, handed it to Xiao Tianhe, and led the reins away.

"The carriage and two horses are worth four thousand pearls, to say the least. This map...... In normal times, you can't even sell a bead. You've really made a 'good deal'!" Seeing Xiao Tianhe's joy, Fan Lingyun couldn't help but sarcastically.

"It's not an extraordinary time. Money is something outside the body, it doesn't matter!" Xiao Tianhe grinned.

"You should be very rich in the Nether Realm, right? Are you used to being extravagant? Don't forget, you are a poor bastard in the Yuyu Realm, how can you spend money and be as generous as flowing water? Who dares to marry you like this, it's a loser!" Fan Lingyun shook his head and sighed.

Xiao Tianhe skimmed through the map roughly, and it was indeed very detailed, but the fly in the ointment was that the part of the Yaoming Forest was too vague. "I'm alone, I spend it if I have money, and I don't spend it if I don't have money, how can I say that I'm a loser? Let's go, set off to Yaoming Forest!" Xiao Tianhe waved his hand.

Fan Lingyun suggested: "After bypassing this crowded place, let's go back to the forest on the right road." ”

"Why is this?" Xiao Tianhe was puzzled.

"You'll know then. ”

What I didn't expect was that there were tents all along the way.

"Do you know why these people who arrived early didn't enter the Yaoming Forest, but camped outside?" asked Fan Lingyun.

Xiao Tianhe guessed: "Maybe it's because there are more people to enter together? After all, the more people, the safer." ”

"So to speak. But the more definite answer is – form a team. Fan Lingyun explained, "It is safe to have a lot of people, but it is also inconvenient to act. Besides, after killing a demon beast, how should the demon spirit orb be distributed?"

"Definitely. Xiao Tianhe nodded yes, "A large army is not as effective as a small detachment." The group of people who could get here early must have come by horse-drawn carriage, and many of them were still on the way on foot, so these people first stopped and waited outside the Yaoming Forest, and by the way, they could also enter the outer edge of the forest to try their luck. ”

"That's right. This competition is very demanding, and I am afraid that you and I will not be able to complete it alone, so we have to team up as a team. Fan Lingyun said.

"That's why you entered the forest the right way. Xiao Tianhe said, and suddenly found a group of people not far ahead, as well as cheers and cheers, as if they were watching a fight.

"Go over and see. Fan Lingyun and Xiao Tianhe came up, and saw that there were four people in the circle of people who were in a group, and the costumes should be three men and one woman. The three men seemed to be in a group, each holding a magic knife to besiege the woman, and the woman was an immortal cultivator, and it was very difficult to fight with one enemy and three.

"It's really glorious for three big men to bully a woman!" Fan Lingyun was very angry.

There was a "bang", and I don't know which man's knife cut the woman's arm and hung the color.

"Oh——!" The onlookers erupted in cheers.

The woman's face turned crimson with anger, pointed her sword at the three sneering men, and shouted: "In broad daylight, you are so shameless!

"Girl, I picked it up on the road

, and you can't prove that you dropped it. Naturally, whoever picks it up will be whoever!haha!" Although the man at the head was dressed brightly and gorgeously, there was a hint of obscenity in his face.

"It was dropped when I took out my handkerchief, but I came back to look for it in a moment, and I happened to see you pick it up, why didn't you return it to me?

"That's what I want to say, am I going to rely on you for a bottle of elixir?" the man replied playfully.

"You!" the woman was angry, but she couldn't beat them.

Another man sneered: "Hey, I said 'old fritters', what does it matter if you have one more bottle of pills and one less bottle?

"Hahaha!" burst into laughter from the crowd.

"Then you admit that the pill is mine? With your status and status, why don't you lack that bottle of pill? But I bought it with the money I had saved for a long time. Hurry up and pay me back, I must pass the evaluation contest this time. The woman said firmly.

"You say this once a year, aren't you tired? If this session were the same as before, you still have a little hope, but this time the rules have changed, I think who wants to team up with you?" said the third man.

"I'm willing!" Fan Lingyun couldn't stand it anymore, so he squeezed through the crowd and jumped into the circle.

The man at the head was startled and then laughed, yin and yang weird: "Yo, there is really someone who stands up for you!"

The woman turned sideways and nodded gratefully at Fan Lingyun.

"I think she has given up on this competition and plans to make a 'little fritter'. Fortunately, the 'old fritters' finally have a successor. A man's words caused the onlookers to laugh "hee-ha-ha".

Fan Lingyun frowned, stared at the laughing crowd, and the laughter suddenly quieted down.

The man at the head put away the magic knife and said to the two behind him: "Bored, let them toss by themselves, let's go!"

Before he could take two steps, a figure suddenly flashed in front of the three of them and blocked the way, it was Xiao Tianhe.

The man at the head looked at Xiao Tianhe and found that it was a fresh face, so he said unceremoniously: "Good dog is not in the way, hurry up and get out of the way for me!"

"Give her back the girl's elixir. Xiao Tianhe said coldly.

"Oops!" The three men looked back at the immortal cultivator in unison.

"I didn't expect your popularity to be quite good!"

"What, I think it's probably her good friend, right? Otherwise, who would stand up for her, haha!"

"Tsk, aren't the two of them one big and one young? brother, you are not shallow!"

The words of the three of them are as bad as they sound.

Fan Lingyun scolded: "It's really a dog, and you can't spit out ivory in your mouth!"

"Dare to scold me, I'm tired of being crooked!" The man led by him turned around and drew his knife and slashed at Fan Lingyun with lightning speed.

"Be careful!" The immortal cultivator hurriedly caught up with her, raising her sword to intercept the attack for Fan Lingyun.

The other two men were about to turn back to help in the battle, Xiao Tianhe caught up with one from the oblique stab, and the remaining person was hesitating, but the person who was fighting with Xiao Tianhe shouted: "I'll clean up this guy and help the eldest brother!"

"Wait, your opponent is me!" A woman jumped in from the back of the crowd, wearing a white robe and purple yarn, a jade and gold hairpin, curved bangs, two sideburns and braids, and a head of hair with green silk hanging down to her waist, holding a purple light long knife, like a nine-day fairy floating down to earth, and landed in front of the man leisurely.

The man looked fixedly, and the woman's eyebrows were upside down, her starry eyes were angry, her peach cheeks were flushed with anger, and her pomegranate-like cherry lips were tightly pursed. The arms are spread, covered with light gauze sleeves, and only a little bit of crystal cream skin is revealed between the wrists. The hand is soft, the fingers are like jade onions, and the slippery fingertips press the handle of the red cloth, which is more and more conspicuous. The willow has a thin waist, a Roland silk belt, and the arch of the foot is open, which is like a rush, but it does not lose its graceful state. Even the angry face has to make people admire: "What a handsome girl!"

When the man saw the woman's beauty, his feet softened by five points.

"Isn't the girl also an old oil...... Uh, the woman's friend?" the man asked.

"In broad daylight, the battle is bullying. When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help. The woman said flatly.

Originally, I didn't think so, but with her glamorous appearance, I felt more and more that her voice was very soft, like the breeze and drizzle, the sound of drums and pianos, and it felt like looking at the sky and shadow by the water, and smelling the orchid in the empty valley, which was extremely refreshing.

The man was turned into a soft voice, and the remaining five points of strength went to four points, and only one point was left to support his body from collapsing, but he still didn't forget to stare at the woman's handsome face, and only hated his father and mother for missing two eyes. Finally took a step forward and explained: "The girl misunderstood......"

"Less nonsense!" the woman did not wait for the man to finish speaking, and stepped forward. How can a man still have the power to parry? The face has a ** appearance of "peony flowers are dead, and ghosts are also romantic", which looks even more disgusting and hateful in the eyes of women. Seeing that he was about to be arrested, the man who led the man shouted: "Stop!"

Everyone looked at him, only to see him take out a pill bottle from his arms, raise his hand and throw it to the immortal cultivator who was teased at the beginning, and then said: "But just kidding, I have provoked so many strong guys, I remember a few of you, let's see!"

When he walked past the beautiful woman who stood up at the end, he also glanced sideways slightly, and it was really fairy and beautiful. Looking to the side, the companion man looked at the woman in a daze, only afraid that the soul was also hooked, thinking about the shame of today, he couldn't help but be angry, so he slapped his companion on the chest and pushed him to his feet, which made him come back to his senses.

The three men left, and the onlookers dispersed. Xiao Tianhe and the three of them gathered together with the immortal cultivator woman, but the woman had a sad face: "Thank you three for helping each other, but you are in trouble!"
