All the way forward, against the current, go upstream.

The round pebbles are paved all over the river, the water is not deep, the water is crystal clear, and the fish swim leisurely under the water, quite leisurely.

The breeze blows, the water surface sets off ripples, and the treetops rustle!

"There is a saying in Taoism that the Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things, that is, all things in the universe are one! Ji Mingyuan said.

All things are interrelated, interconnected, seemingly unrelated, yet indescribably connected or similar.

"And said, only the Tao gathers emptiness, and the void is also fasting, that is, the avenue is to the void to be quiet, and the heart is pure and void to be quiet, so as to merge the avenue!"

To comprehend heaven and earth with meditation, and because all things are one, layer by layer, and to perceive all things in the world, it is extremely scary to think carefully.

"The world is so exciting!" Ji Mingyuan smiled.

The world is so colorful and surprising that there is so much to explore and discover on your own.

He went all the way up, and after less than two miles, the river became smaller and smaller, and at last he saw a waterfall hanging high on a high cliff in the distance.

The waterfall has been the same for ten years, and nothing has changed. Hanging high on the high mountain, the water and the sky are the same color, such as linking the sky, rushing endlessly, splashing in all directions, flying down 3,000 feet, falling abruptly, making bursts of roaring sounds, setting off bursts of splashes.

The water splashes in all directions, splashes in the air, turns into a rainbow under the illumination of the scorching sun, colorful, the mist is filled, the water mist rises, making the waterfall become fairy-like, such as fairyland, extremely beautiful and moving.

"I haven't been back for a long time!" Ji Mingyuan said with emotion as he looked at the waterfall in front of him.

When he was chased and killed, he fell into the lake, was washed all the way here, fell into the pool under the waterfall, and when he woke up, he was already here, lying on the shore weakly, and it was considered nine deaths.

Catch fish in deep pools for a living by being familiar with the nature of the water. At that time, I was young, and I was even more injured, and it was not easy to survive.

Sometimes his heart was sad and sad, and he would come here and sit quietly until sunset.

Ji Mingyuan clasped his hands into fists and leaned over to worship, which can be regarded as thanking him for saving himself here.

Finished!

Ji Mingyuan looked at the edge of the trees beside the deep pool, where the trees were thick, the grass was abundant, and there was a silhouette of a black shadow in one place. Ji Mingyuan knew that there was a two-zhang high cave there, and Ji Mingyuan had spent many nights in it back then.

Retracting his mind, Ji Mingyuan smiled and said, "Let's go!"

Walking next to the waterfall, the water splashes from time to time.

A mountain that stands straight and tall like a wall stands in front of you, and the rocks are uneven and difficult to climb.

Ji Mingyuan smiled, he was homesick when he was a child, and he also tried to climb, but he fell down after less than two feet, and finally fell to the point of being afraid, so he could only sit on the side and cry with his knees hugged.

Now Ji Mingyuan is handsome, elegant and dignified, and has a tall posture. One stepped forward, leaped forward, jumped three feet high, grabbed a protruding stone, and hung it on the cliff.

Ji Mingyuan quickly climbed up, and when he found a place where he could step on it, he stepped on it with one foot, jumping vertically, as dexterous as a monkey, all the way up.

"Bang!"

The stone that Ji Mingyuan grabbed was baptized by the years, weathered, and had already loosened, and it fell off as soon as it was caught, and Ji Mingyuan fell directly behind him!

Ji Mingyuan was not in a hurry, his body twisted, he pulled out a dagger from his waist and inserted it directly into the stone wall! The dagger broke through the stone wall, falling and drawing a straight and slender crack, and finally stopped, Ji Mingyuan hung on it.

"Whew...... It's dangerous!" Ji Mingyuan smiled and said, not panicking.

Hanging in the air under his feet, dozens of feet high from the ground, if he falls, he will definitely be crushed to pieces and smashed into a mess of mud.

Grasp the stone steadily, continue to go up, after a pillar of incense, Ji Mingyuan held the edge of the cliff in his hand, and with a fierce force, he directly propped it up and jumped away.

"Hey......" Ji Mingyuan didn't stand firmly, his body was still a little tired, he fell back, hurriedly squatted down and took out a dagger and stuck it on the ground, so he didn't fall down.

"Whew...... I almost had to die young!" Ji Mingyuan said with palpitations.

Put away the dagger, turn around, and look around.

Mountains and flowing water, misty clouds, white cranes soaring clouds!

"Ah......" Ji Mingyuan shouted. The voice was loud and loud, and it was heard far away.

Shouting out, Ji Mingyuan felt physically and mentally refreshed, his exhaustion was swept away, he felt the visual feast brought by the beautiful scenery, and felt the cold wind blowing in the high places.

"It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see all the mountains at a glance!" Ji Mingyuan smiled and said.

He climbed about a stick of incense for about a long time, about dozens of zhang high, and it was a miracle that he didn't die when he fell from here.

"Gu Immortal Pavilion?" Ji Mingyuan said as he looked into the distance.

The palace floating on the high mountain is still magnificent, huge, and shining brightly.

"If it weren't for Zhao Tingsheng's obstruction back then, I might have been a disciple of the Gu Immortal Pavilion, right?

Almost all the children in this ancient city want to be admitted to the Gu Immortal Pavilion and become its disciples, Xiu Xian asked, embarked on the path, and found the road to become immortals.

I once had the opportunity to become one of them, but I missed it and never entered it to practice. But he was not discouraged, nor did he regret it, he felt that it was good now, and maybe it was better than entering the Gu Immortal Pavilion.

Shaking his head, Ji Mingyuan didn't think about it anymore, he looked into the distance, the tall and round hill, like a spring bamboo shoot, connected to the mountains, seemed to be no different, but Ji Mingyuan knew where it was at a glance.

He smiled and said, "Let's go!"

The ancient city is vast, surrounded by mountains and ravines, flowing water, Ji Mingyuan didn't walk to the city gate until the evening, even if he was footsteps.

The tall city gate is magnificent and domineering, as high as more than ten zhang zhang, and the city wall is as high as a hill, huge! There are only small villages in the west gate, and there is no huge ancient city.

The city gate is a bronze gate, wide and heavy, rusty on it, with all kinds of swords, guns, sword marks, fist prints, and animal claws, but none of them have collapsed. Solid and immortal, as if it lasts forever, it has witnessed the change of time and the rise and fall of the world.

The gates opened only a small gap, but enough for the carriages to pass through. Ji Mingyuan knew that this was to prevent the enemy or fierce beasts from attacking, and it was too late to close the city gate, only if the east gate was close to the ancient city, heavily guarded, and a strong man was in charge, the city gate would be opened.

If there are no special circumstances in this west gate, this small crack will only be opened on weekdays.

The gates are flanked by a river that extends from the outside under two holes in the city wall. Ji Mingyuan heard that this city wall was guarded by a large guardian array, and it was impossible for enemies and fierce beasts to get in by relying on it, so he was rushed in like this?

Ji Mingyuan carried the guqin on his back, floated along, and strolled forward.

"So lax?" Ji Mingyuan was shocked.

There were four people wearing armor standing inside and outside the city gate, and the majestic armor was worn on the body, but there was no majesty or domineering. Holding Changge lazily sitting on the ground, if there is an enemy attacking, what can I do?

"Ignore them!" said an old man as he strolled in.

"I want to hear about it!" Ji Mingyuan said, he wanted to know the reason.

"You're from another city, aren't you?" said the old man with a kind smile on crutches.

"Hmm!" Ji Mingyuan replied.

The old man smiled and said, "This city gate is guarded by an enchantment, even if the enemy army is attacking or the fierce beast is attacking, it will be difficult to break through the enchantment for a while, which is enough for them to notify others to close the city gate." ”

"I see!" Ji Mingyuan said, it seems that he underestimated the guardian enchantment, but he still felt a little inappropriate, after all, if he was broken through, it would be a big disaster.

The old man also explained, because there had been no powerful attack for many years, everyone felt that it didn't matter.

Ji Mingyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, take precautions, and be prepared!"

Ji Mingyuan felt that it was better to take precautions and make some preparations.

Ji Mingyuan stepped forward and looked at the four of them, "You have a heavy responsibility, how can you act so hastily? ”

The voice scolded the four of them sternly.

The four of them hurriedly got up, picked up Changge and stood straight, but when they saw Ji Mingyuan, their faces were annoyed.

A man sat down loosely again, looked at Ji Mingyuan with a disgusted expression, and said, "What do you know about a little kid? ”

Another man leaned against the city wall, holding Changge in his arms, covering his eyes with his helmet, and said coldly, "We can't take care of you yet!"

Ji Mingyuan's expression froze, and he was no longer as gentle as jade.

"What, want to fight?" When they saw Ji Mingyuan's posture, they instantly became anxious, and they all picked up Changge and pointed at Ji Mingyuan.

"Instead of aiming the weapon at the enemy, but at the people in the city?" Ji Mingyuan frowned, and his voice was a little cold.

The four of them were not doing their jobs, they were scattered, and they were still for their own selfishness, and the cold and flickering weapons were aimed at the people in the city? Ji Mingyuan felt cold in his heart.

"Nosy!" A man directly stabbed Ji Mingyuan in the abdomen with a long ge.

Ji Mingyuan's face froze, this offensive was completely to put himself to death!

"Bang!"

The sturdy man was blasted out a few feet away by Ji Mingyuan's palm, and he fell to the ground, shocking the audience.

"You!" The three of them were shocked and picked up their weapons and aimed them at Ji Mingyuan.

Ji Mingyuan's expression was calm and fearless, his right palm was full of spiritual power, his ability was condensed, and he was ready to go.

"The Seven Layers of the Primal Realm!" the other three were shocked! They didn't expect a young man to have such a cultivation.

They are only here to confiscate, they are only responsible for guarding the gates, and as long as someone comes to commit crimes, they will report and close the city gates, and their cultivation is not high, or even not cultivated. Not to mention that one has fallen, even if it hasn't fallen, the four of them together are Ji Mingyuan's opponents.

"Arrest you and go to the city lord to ask for the guilt!" Ji Mingyuan said calmly, not minding that things would get bigger.

Several people are the caretakers of the gate of a city, and they are burdened with heavy responsibilities but they don't know it, how can Ji Mingyuan tolerate it, if something happens, it will be a real disaster, and it will be too late to regret it.

When the three of them heard the words "Lord of the City", their scalps were numb and their hearts were cold.

The lord of this ancient city is iron-faced and selfless, even their top bosses have to bow down and salute for three points. If they really make trouble with the lord of the city, they won't be able to eat and walk around. But...... If you want to beat this young man half to death here, and there is no way to tell the truth, can the three of them do it?

"Official, Official, don't be impatient!" an old voice sounded.

Ji Mingyuan turned around when he heard this, and it turned out to be the old man who had just asked himself.

"This child is also young and ignorant, unintentional, please don't be angry. The old man came bent over and on crutches.

"I ......" Ji Mingyuan wanted to say something, but the old man pressed his hand and signaled him not to speak.

"Don't be angry, this kid has such a temper!" the old man smiled kindly.

"Cut! Hurry up!" The three of them were unhappy in their hearts, but they couldn't make a big deal out of it, the most important thing was that they couldn't beat Ji Mingyuan, so if they continued like this, they would definitely have to beat up, so let the two of them leave quickly.

"Thank you!!" thanked the old man.

"Child, are you going out of the city gate, hurry up!" the old man said, pulling Ji Mingyuan's coat.

Ji Mingyuan answered softly, and was dragged out of the city by the old man.

When he got out of the city, the old man took Ji Mingyuan's hand, looked at the three people behind him, and whispered, "It's useless! Even if you drive them away, the next one to come here will be the same! It's okay, it's going to be fine." ”

Ji Mingyuan was silent, not knowing what to say.

"The world is big, the road is under your feet, look ahead!"

"Let's go!" said the old man.

"Hmm!" Ji Mingyuan replied softly and turned around and left.

The old man returned to the city and watched Ji Mingyuan leave......

Ji Mingyuan walked forward in the sunset, and his figure gradually lengthened.

Ji Mingyuan looked back, the city gate slowly closed, and with a bang, it was completely closed.

Above the city gate, a plaque hangs high with three ancient and mysterious characters "Falling Autumn City"

"The autumn wind is bleak, and the fallen leaves return to their roots!" Ji Mingyuan looked at him.

Turning around and walking towards the vastness of the outside world......
